[12:00] <xXErnieXx> ladydoor, how do i use sudo
[12:01] <ladydoor> xXErnieXx: sudo commandname
[12:01] <eyequeue> tehsu, there will be a tarball under /usr/src/ you can unpack in $HOME
[12:01] <tehsu> eyequeue: right, but im getting .7 :-\
[12:01] <nozorro> DaJudge things are scrolling a bit fast in this channel for my gusto, but it's fun to help others out in real time
[12:01] <eyequeue> tehsu, okay, back up, let's start over
[12:01] <ladydoor> xXErnieXx: or if it's a graphikal application, <alt>f2 gksudo commandname <enter>
[12:01] <sethk> tehsu, which ubuntu version are you on?
[12:01] <tehsu> 6.06
[12:01] <eyequeue> tehsu, "sudo apt-get update" before anything!  then rerun things you already ran
[12:01] <sethk> tehsu, try doing an apt-get update
[12:01] <tehsu> eyequeue: i did that 10 times
[12:02] <xXErnieXx> ...
[12:02] <DaJudge> nozorro: thanks again.. looks like I was able to cobble a solution together with your help.
[12:02] <sethk> tehsu, once is enough
[12:02] <sethk> tehsu, what architecture?
[12:02] <longwave> tehsu: what is the output of "apt-cache show linux-source-2.6.15" then? put it in a pastebin
[12:02] <Chrisms> lognwave: is the .ima the image file?
[12:02] <tehsu> 686
[12:02] <longwave> Chrisms: yes
[12:02] <nozorro> DaJudge: welcome, and thanks for the tab hint
[12:02] <eyequeue> tehsu, the versions i mentioned are cirrent, hence if you sudo apt-get update, you should get them too
[12:02] <digitalhav0c> anyone know of any apps to change wireless netoworks other than wifi-radar
[12:02] <sethk> tehsu, odd
[12:02] <tehsu> lemme try again
[12:02] <dr_willis> !network-manager
[12:02] <ubotu> networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager
[12:02] <ompaul> tehsu, did you do it as >>  sudo apt-get update << ?
[12:02] <lostinc> Is there a better way to manage fonts other than just installing them?
[12:02] <Chrisms> lgonwave: that are the.htm's for?
[12:02] <azcazandco> ladydoor: I am getting an invalid user issue
[12:03] <longwave> Chrisms: basic documentation in three languages, the _e one is english
[12:03] <Chrisms> ahh okay
[12:03] <azcazandco> when doing sudochown/media/newhomeyourusername:yourusername
[12:03] <tehsu> i think it worked this time it showed .26.46
[12:03] <lostinc> digitalhave0c I sent you a message with that info
[12:03] <mikey> eyequeue: I just installed kernel 2.6.12 on dapper, but I don't have any harddrives or cdroms in dev, so I assume it's udev, do you know how I'd fix?
[12:03] <Chrisms> i figured. but wasn't sure, didn't want to open while rawrite was writing incase
[12:03] <grimboy> Can anyone tell me how I reset the dns cache (on a client machine)? I've tried /etc/init.d/nscd restart but I think that's for dns servers.
[12:03] <Chrisms> okay. lets try this. brb
[12:03] <ladydoor> azcazandco: ok, try this:  adduser <yourfavoriteusername> (w/o the <>)
[12:03] <dr_willis> grimboy,  ya tried googling for an  answer yet?
[12:03] <ladydoor> azcazandco: and with sudo
[12:04] <tehsu> any of yall done the vcore patch on the kernel?
[12:04] <sethk> grimboy, in general clients don't do dns caching
[12:04] <eyequeue> mikey, no
[12:04] <bbrazil> grimboy: there isn't one by default
[12:04] <Alex> azcazandco: It's in the wrong order - chown yourusername:yourusername /media/newhome
[12:04] <mikey> Oka. Thanks
[12:04] <grimboy> sethk, Ah.
[12:04] <dr_willis> sethk,  i was about to sa that also.. :)
[12:04] <eclipse_> heyo.....anyone know a good D++ hub to run on ubuntu?
[12:04] <bob777> Hi what is the equivalent of smbmount now please?
[12:04] <Alex> bob777: mount -t smbfs (or smb?)
[12:04] <dr_willis> smbmnt
[12:04] <grimboy> Probably just need to wait until changes reach me then, sorry.
[12:04] <lostinc> gtg
[12:05] <ladydoor> Alex: right. that's what i said. it's jsut that zie's on the livecd
[12:05] <Chrisms> longwave: IT WORKED! thank you SO much!
[12:05] <longwave> Chrisms: glad to help :)
[12:05] <Alex> ladydoor: ?
[12:05] <Cojawfee> Hello
[12:05] <Alex> ladydoor: 23:03:18 < azcazandco> when doing sudochown/media/newhomeyourusername:yourusername
[12:05] <ladydoor> Alex: oh, nm, you're right
[12:05] <Alex> ladydoor: wrong order.
[12:05] <Alex> :)
[12:05] <ladydoor> lol
[12:05] <ladydoor> me stoopid
[12:05] <Alex> Nar :p
[12:06] <azcazandco> cp -a /media/home/home /media/newhome
[12:06] <azcazandco> cp: cannot create directory `/media/newhome/home': Permission denied
[12:06] <azcazandco> should I sudo?
[12:06] <dr_willis> make the directory first..
[12:06] <jacques> yes you should
[12:06] <jacques> sorry wrong window
[12:06] <jazzrocker> how can I set up ESD to use the custom OSS driver in my kernel?
[12:07] <jazzrocker> it's not regular OSS is the commercial version from 4front
[12:07] <dr_willis> jazzrocker,  wow - that thing still is being updated? :P
[12:07] <eclipse_> anyone know a good D++ hub to run on ubuntu?
[12:07] <dr_willis> ok.. WHAT is a D++ hub?
[12:07] <jazzrocker> dr_willis, not sure what you're talking about. but whether or not it's updated has nothing to do with whether the 4Front OSS driver is the only one that'll run my card :(
[12:08] <eclipse_> D++ is a sharing program that uses hubs.....im trying to switch my campus to use D++
[12:08] <bob777> alex_: nope mount -t smbfs returns me a weird error message
[12:08] <nlitement> DC++?
[12:08] <eclipse_> and i need to set up a HUB
[12:08] <Alex> bob777: Please, tell us that error message..
[12:08] <nlitement> DC++?
[12:08] <dr_willis> jazzrocker,  last i even heard about 4front was years ago. :P for my Creative card.   If they have never updated the stuff for the 2.6 kernels - it will be an issue.
[12:08] <eclipse_> D++
[12:08] <ucordes> direct connect?
[12:09] <nlitement> still, direct connect.. there are many clients for that
[12:09] <jazzrocker> dr_willis, what will be an issue. sound works fine.
[12:09] <eclipse_> i dont want a client
[12:09] <ucordes> yea
[12:09] <azcazandco> ladydoor: am copying to newhome under sudo
[12:09] <eclipse_> i want a Hub program
[12:09] <jazzrocker> dr_willis, i've got amarok jammin and GAIM uses sounds
[12:09] <Goblin> hallo, has GNOME anything similiar to Krusader? Thanks
[12:09] <nlitement> use Yoshi or something
[12:09] <nlitement> it's a server
[12:09] <eclipse_> a client connects to a hub
[12:09] <azcazandco> i am assuming I can do a chown later
[12:09] <dr_willis> jazzrocker,  You just said it dident.. -  or else youve managed to totally confuse me.. :)
[12:09] <kyozabe> Hey, guys; I haven't used Ubuntu (dapper) in a while, and recently updated it. I no longer hear any sound while viewing videos on Youtube in Firefox.
[12:09] <nozorro> Goblin, waht is Krusader?
[12:09] <nlitement> eclipse_: I referred to your way of describing direct connect as "D++"
[12:09] <jazzrocker> dr_willis, maybe you should read what i actually said
[12:09] <dr_willis> jazzrocker,  i got a headache now.. :P
[12:09] <jazzrocker> dr_willis, re*

[12:10] <volvoguy> probably been asked a million times today (but not mentioned in the channel topic), but is knot-2 still coming out today?
[12:10] <nlitement> google for "Yoshi" and "hub" (together)
[12:10] <kyozabe> could someone please tell me how to get sound working again?
[12:10] <jacques> dr_willis: i'm comming right with the nview slowly but surely. I just want to ask to selct a analogue monitor under device you selct 'crt' and for a LCD monitor you select 'dfp'.what do you select for the s-video out on the card
[12:10] <jazzrocker> i don't need codecs
[12:10] <jazzrocker> i've got those too
[12:10] <dr_willis> Theres a control panel applet that selects some default media sound system.  But i cant rember the bot ! for it.
[12:10] <Goblin> nozorro: http://krusader.sourceforge.net/
[12:10] <eclipse_> i thought ynhub didnt run on ubuntu tho
[12:10] <jazzrocker> kyozabe, what'd you do to make it stop working?
[12:10] <kyozabe> nothing, it seems
[12:10] <dr_willis> jacques, i did that once.. :P
[12:10] <jazzrocker> dr_willis, i have that but no cards show up in the list
[12:10] <kyozabe> I haven't touched ubuntu in months
[12:11] <kyozabe> updated it last night
[12:11] <kyozabe> torrented a few videos, which play fine
[12:11] <kyozabe> but youtube is mute now
[12:11] <eclipse_> nlitement: YnHub will work on ubuntu?
[12:11] <ladydoor> azcazandco: how's it going?
[12:11] <nozorro> Goblin: maybe you can find something similar on http://www.gnomefiles.org/
[12:11] <kyozabe> I remember torrents somehow having the same muting effect on youtube if I try to watch one while downloaidng
[12:11] <kyozabe> downloading*
[12:12] <azcazandco> still copying
[12:12] <kyozabe> but bittornado isn't even running right now
[12:12] <azcazandco> about 50gb to copy
[12:12] <azcazandco> hence the reason I didnt want to backup to dvd
[12:12] <nozorro> Goblin: i think there are 1 or 2 apps like that, but i don't remember exactly right now
[12:12] <azcazandco> my lacie drive stopped working last week so I have stripped it out the casing but havent plugged it in yet
[12:12] <jacques> dr_willis: can you remember how
[12:13] <azcazandco> is a 250gb drive
[12:13] <dr_willis> jacques, check the Nvidia homepage and the linux docs for their driver. it mentions it.
[12:13] <azcazandco> figured i would try it internally but dont know how sata and ide work together
[12:13] <jazzrocker> anyone happen to know where the default beeps/sounds for KDE/GNOME live?
[12:13] <jazzrocker> /usr/share/sounds has nothing
[12:13] <kyozabe> jazzrocker: any suggestions?
[12:14] <jazzrocker> kyozabe, reboot?
[12:14] <jacques> dr_willis: will look there again but can't remember see it there last night. thanx
[12:14] <dr_willis> jacques,  looking at -> http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/1.0-8774/README/index.html  right now
[12:14] <ladydoor> azcazandco: sweet. well, when you get to the partitioning, basically just manually partition, overwrite your original partition, and tell it to use your new /home as /home and your old swap as swap. i'll hopefully be back before then, but if not just ask the channel for any help on manual partitioning.
[12:14] <kyozabe> I've rebooted several times
[12:14] <kyozabe> anything else? :/
[12:15] <dr_willis> jacques,  Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"   Option "ConnectedMonitor" "TV"
[12:15] <longwave> Goblin: did you look at gnome-commander? it is in the universe repository
[12:15] <azcazandco> ladydoor: thanks
[12:15] <Goblin> longwave: I take a look, thanks a lot
[12:16] <jazzrocker> esd isn't actually even running right now
[12:16] <jazzrocker> even though "enable sound system" is checked in GNOME
[12:16] <jazzrocker> does gnome not use ESD anymore?
[12:16] <dr_willis> jacques,   http://mysite.verizon.net/kraussa/nvidia_linux_tv_out.html   has some examples.
[12:17] <tewtewfs> KTHX
[12:18] <minimec> jazzrocker: Hmm... Is it installed by default? At least in Debian esd is not installed by default
[12:18] <Allz-i-> hello i just did a rapp lyric i need something -i mean i need a backsound is there a program?
[12:18] <Allz-i-> PLEASE help me
[12:18] <jazzrocker> minimec, so wtf does gnome use for the sound system and where/how do i configure it by hand cuz the GUI sucks
[12:19] <jazzrocker> google for ubuntu esound turns up nothing useful
[12:19] <jazzrocker> and the manual on esound.org is crap
[12:19] <Allz-i-> i know that
[12:19] <eyequeue> !language
[12:19] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:20] <Allz-i-> !language
[12:20] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:20] <minimec> jazzrocker: it uses alsa. the esd module is a kind of sound server. Try 'sudo apt-get install esd'
[12:20] <jazzrocker> minimec, so how do i configure gnome to not use alsa and use OSS instead
[12:20] <A[D] minS> Nighty all
[12:21] <minimec> jazzrocker: use alsa in combination with esd.
[12:21] <jazzrocker> minimec, ummmm
[12:21] <nozorro> jazzrocker: configuration from the gui didn't work for you?
[12:21] <minimec> jazzrocker: why can't you use alsa?
[12:21] <jazzrocker> nozorro, i guess yall missed my original question by now
[12:22] <nozorro> jazzrocker: maybe
[12:22] <jazzrocker> nozorro, apparently :P
[12:22] <jazzrocker> scroll up or i can repeat if you like
[12:23] <jazzrocker> the 4Front OSS driver is completely non-compatible with ALSA last i checked
[12:24] <kyozabe> so er
[12:24] <kyozabe> acronyms count as bad language?
[12:24] <jazzrocker> i plan to get a diff sound card soon, but the one i need is $$$ and it will take time. the one I have i bought on good faith that since it had the right chipset that the default alsa drivers would work but i happened to get the ONE card that was crappy out of all their good ones
[12:24] <minimec> jazzrocker: I don't know if 'esd' handels OSS. I don't think so.
[12:24] <kyozabe> what if one is referring to the PSP game Work Time Fun?
[12:24] <omnid> I'm in serious trouble with my ubuntu installation
[12:24] <TheGame> what up omnid
[12:24] <jazzrocker> minimec, well does gnome use esd or not? if not then that doesn't matter.
[12:25] <omnid> TheGame supposedly my root is being 'checked'
[12:25] <nozorro> jazzrocker: gnome does use esd
[12:25] <TheGame> what do u mean
[12:25] <omnid> and it keeps saying there are duplicate blocks
[12:25] <TheGame> hmm
[12:25] <jazzrocker> i looked up OSS emulation with ALSA but the 4Front drivers are closed source and don't work with any sort of ALSA emulation
[12:25] <TheGame> ive never heard of that problem
[12:25] <jazzrocker> nozorro, ok that's what i thought. esd isn't running right now that i can see
[12:25] <omnid> So it runs this check where it tries to repair them
[12:25] <omnid> but fails
[12:25] <TheGame> oh
[12:25] <jazzrocker> nozorro, i ps grepped for esd and esound but nothing
[12:25] <TheGame> maybe there is a problem with ur hd
[12:25] <omnid> I fear so
[12:26] <jazzrocker> nozorro, the esound manual is useless lol
[12:26] <jazzrocker> nozorro, do you have any idea how to configure gnome to use OSS instead of alsa?
[12:26] <nozorro> jazzrocker: can you see your OSS device in the mixer (volume-control)?
[12:26] <minimec> jazzrocker: You can use alsa or OSS with gnome, but if you use OSS, esd will probably not work. But you will have sound. You just won't be able to listen to a CD and watch a Movie at the same time. ;)
[12:27] <omnid> It's telling me to do a manual 'fsck' what is that?
[12:27] <azcazandco> man I thought sata drives were supposed to be fast
[12:27] <jazzrocker> nozorro, i actually do not have such an item
[12:27] <minimec> jazzrocker: esd is a sound server that handels different 'sound-streams' ...
[12:28] <azcazandco> ah crap
[12:28] <brooklyn> is there a program available for ubuntu/linux to download mp3's etc?
[12:28] <azcazandco> I know what I have done wrong
[12:28] <jazzrocker> minimec, actually the 4Front driver for my card provides a number of /dev/dsp devices to use as a primitive mixer
[12:28] <azcazandco> how do I stop a copy
[12:28] <jazzrocker> so that's not really a problem
[12:28] <jazzrocker> nozorro, i mean i don't have a mixer or volume-control anywhere that i can see in my menus
[12:28] <minimec> jazzrocker: So you have sound...
[12:28] <jazzrocker> minimec, yes indeed
[12:28] <jazzrocker> minimec, gaim and amarok both
[12:29] <merch> omnid: unmount fs and do fsck -f /dev/hda1 or wherever your fs is.
[12:29] <TheGame> anybody here use rhythmbox
[12:29] <nozorro> jazzrocker: so that only seems to confirm that hardware autoconfig didn't work for your card ... or can you start gnome-volume-control manually?
[12:29] <minimec> jazzrocker: ok. but you would like to have the gaim sounds, while listening to a CD :_)
[12:29] <jazzrocker> TheGame, amarok > rhythmbox
[12:29] <omnid> It says sda1 I think
[12:29] <TheGame> i dont like amarok
[12:29] <azcazandco> can I quit a copy process anyone?
[12:29] <TheGame> it doesnt pick up all my songs from th elibrary
[12:29] <jazzrocker> nozorro, lemme see... oh yeah i guarantee hardware autoconfig didn't work for my card
[12:30] <TheGame> while rhythmbox does
[12:30] <omnid> merch how do I unmount? What is the command to unmount?
[12:30] <TheGame> like i have 4200 songs but amarok only detects 3900
[12:30] <omnid> Also what is fs
[12:30] <tehsu> is it possible to change the core clock in ubuntu?
[12:30] <omnid> filesystem oh
[12:30] <minimec> omnid: umount
[12:30] <tehsu> the graphics core clock
[12:30] <merch> omnid: If it's your root partition, might be easier to boot with livecd, mount sda1, and then run fsck
[12:30] <jazzrocker> nozorro, gnome-volume-control quits out with a message about GStreamer plugins and this "ALSA lib confmisc.c:672:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card '0'"
[12:30] <omnid> Allright I will try that
[12:30] <jazzrocker> nozorro, which given that i don't have any ALSA cards installed... makes sense
[12:31] <omnid> I'll go into the boot live CD now
[12:31] <matthew_w> Hey, for some reason when I run a sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev it gives me errors regarding dependencies libpango and libcairo which are "not going to be installed" then fails.  .... Why?
[12:31] <TheGame> jazzrocker: do u know why amarok doesnt detect all my music
[12:31] <TheGame> can it not play m4a/
[12:31] <jazzrocker> TheGame, it won't detect wma files i don't think
[12:32] <TheGame> i dont have wma
[12:32] <jazzrocker> TheGame, yeah and probably not m4a either
[12:32] <TheGame> only mp3 and m4a
[12:32] <TheGame> thats gay
[12:32] <TheGame> is there a plugin
[12:32] <jazzrocker> TheGame, yeah there is probably a plugin for it though.
[12:32] <jazzrocker> !language
[12:32] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:32] <TheGame> ill check it out
[12:32] <brooklyn> or is there not a peer2peer downloading program for linux?
[12:32] <ucordes> who is gay?
[12:33] <dr_willis> brooklyn,  several dozen of them
[12:33] <minimec> TheGame: HAve a look at the easyubuntu Homepage ;)
[12:33] <jazzrocker> you only show your own ignorance and insecurity with homophobic remarks
[12:33] <dr_willis> brooklyn,  depends on the network ya want to use.
[12:33] <kyozabe> apparently, a program, ucordes
[12:33] <matthew_w> Is there some problem with the repositories, or... is it in testing?
[12:33] <dr_willis> !p2p
[12:33] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network). BitTorrent: see !torrent Direct connect: try valknut
[12:33] <TheGame> why minimec
[12:33] <brooklyn> dr_willis: just something good to download a few older songs with, have any suggestions?
[12:33] <ucordes> brooklyn, what kind of files are you looking for?
[12:33] <brooklyn> just something to find old music
[12:33] <dr_willis> brooklyn,  frostwire
[12:33] <jazzrocker> TheGame, easyubuntu is a way to install some commonly needed/wanted things like codecs
[12:33] <kyozabe> jazzrocker, you can't expect much more from someone named after a mediocre mainstream rapper
[12:33] <ucordes> try out gtk-gnutella
[12:34] <minimec> TheGame: easyubuntu gives you a way to install all possible decoders for linux...
[12:34] <brooklyn> dr_willis: available in synaptic? :)
[12:34] <longwave> matthew_w: have you installed any extra xgl packages or anything like that? there was someone in here yesterday with similar problems with libgtk2.0-dev and i think it turned out to be due to that
[12:34] <jazzrocker> TheGame, if you're an advanced user you may not need it... everything should be available somewhere in the repos
[12:34] <jazzrocker> TheGame, #easyubuntu
[12:34] <matthew_w> longwave; yea, I have xgl-compiz and whatnot
[12:34] <jazzrocker> kyozabe, ahhh i wasn't aware of the reference
[12:34] <LRushing> brooklyn: there are a couple of bittorent clients avail
[12:34] <ucordes> brooklyn: for single tracks i can suggest gnutella network
[12:34] <TheGame> i think i can get the decoder myself
[12:34] <matthew_w> longwave; is there something I can do about it?
[12:34] <tehsu> anyone here running ati mobility?
[12:35] <brooklyn> ucordes: ty, ill give it a shot.
[12:35] <ucordes> tehsu: me
[12:35] <longwave> matthew_w: the problem is that xgl/compiz has installed different versions of libraries that libgtk2.0-dev expects. you can try removing xgl, installing the dev library then reinstalling xgl; i am not sure how the person fixed it yesterday
[12:35] <ucordes> dr_willis: what network is frost wire?
[12:35] <matthew_w> longwave: so... sudo apt-get remove xgl or so?
[12:35] <jazzrocker> ucordes, gnutella
[12:35] <ucordes> ic
[12:35] <arsalan> any yahoo messenger for ubuntu?
[12:36] <jazzrocker> arsalan, gaim
[12:36] <longwave> matthew_w: depends how you installed xgl in the first place. #ubuntu-xgl may be able to help, too
[12:36] <Linuturk> arsalan, yes, gaim
[12:36] <matthew_w> Thanks
[12:36] <tehsu> ucordes: figure out low voltage yet?
[12:36] <arsalan> I used gaim but unable to see offline contacts in it..
[12:36] <ucordes> tehsu: you mean like powerplay in windows?
[12:36] <tehsu> yeah
[12:36] <tehsu> i finally got it :D
[12:36] <dr_willis> ucordes,  ubotu said. :P
[12:37] <dr_willis> !p2p
[12:37] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network). BitTorrent: see !torrent Direct connect: try valknut
[12:37] <Linuturk> arsalan, go to the Buddies Menu and check the selection saying, Show Offline Buddies
[12:37] <dr_willis> Gnutella Network
[12:37] <tehsu> ucordes: i wanna make it so its sets like that in the xorg.conf
[12:37] <jazzrocker> torrent > gnutella these days
[12:37] <dr_willis> depends on what you are looking for. :)
[12:37] <jazzrocker> gnutella and donkey have disappointed me as of late
[12:38] <ucordes> tehsu: i will try my luck with google
[12:38] <TheGame> i think in amarok 1.4 they added m4a support
[12:38] <brooklyn> Ucordes: any idea where once a music file is downloaded in gnutella where it is saved?
[12:39] <tehsu> ucordes: i got the power stuff its aticonfig --set-powerstate=1
[12:39] <ucordes> /home/yourusername/gtk-gnutella afaik
[12:39] <djon> problme configuration gtk+ qq peut t'il m'aider?
[12:39] <Mikey> Bleh. Anyone knowledgable on downgrading my kernel in dapper? Or more specifically sorting udev once I've done it?
[12:39] <ucordes> 1= lo voltage?
[12:39] <arsalan> thanx Linuturk, I guess I did easy bad stupid type question.. gain is good enough for me now :)
[12:39] <tehsu> ucordes: do aticonfig --lsp
[12:39] <tehsu> 1 is the lowest
[12:40] <ucordes> ic
[12:40] <PowerCat> Hey there!
[12:40] <Linuturk> arsalan, the only stupid question is one not asked
[12:40] <tehsu> ucordes: hopefully that and changing the vcore will save my battery
[12:40] <ucordes> thx. and what is your problem now? fixing this setting in xorg.conf or what
[12:40] <PowerCat> I often see "free as in beer". What does beer have to do with not paying for software?
[12:40] <tehsu> ucordes: i wanna set it so at boot this setting is set
[12:41] <ucordes> ic. so aticonfig doesn't save anything?
[12:41] <dr_willis> PowerCat,  free as in 'freedom of speech' vs . 'free' as in 'free handouts'
[12:41] <tehsu> ucordes: i dunno if it saves that, of course i can test it as soon as my new kernel is finished
[12:41] <brooklyn> is there any certain programs/files i need in order to play downloaded mp3s?
[12:41] <dr_willis> !mp3

[12:42] <TheGame> how do i make amarok like xmms
[12:42] <lgc> Hello all from Mexico! Please help me configure my locale...
[12:42] <ucordes> ok good luck den. one question. what exactly does --set-powerstate=1 set?  the voltage?
[12:42] <PowerCat> So free as in beer means that they say the meanining of the word free is as in "free handout"?
[12:43] <tehsu> ucordes: i went from 100% to 20% in an hour because of the cpu usage and ati  using so much power
[12:43] <dr_willis> TheGame,  - ok.. thats the vaguest question today. so far. :)
[12:43] <caminomaster> hi
[12:43] <TheGame> haha
[12:43] <TheGame> amarok has two modes
[12:43] <caminomaster> who can help me with a sound problem?
[12:43] <TheGame> it can look like itunes
[12:43] <TheGame> or like xmms
[12:43] <dr_willis> PowerCat,  yep.. thers lots of web site that discuss the nuances of the GPL.
[12:43] <TheGame> and right now it looks like ituns but i dont like it
[12:43] <caminomaster> volume control don't function
[12:44] <justin420> hi all. anybody help or point me in the direction of a good howto on using umask to control ONLY certain users reading/writing/exec certain dir's or mount points?
[12:44] <ucordes> my acer is empty very quick too with standart settings
[12:44] <ompaul> PowerCat, this is more an issue for #ubuntu-offtopic as it is not strictly a ubuntu support question
[12:44] <dr_willis> TheGame,  see if it has some help docs?  :) or some theme menu items? I just keep my players minimized to the little task-tray
[12:44] <ucordes> tehsu @
[12:44] <tehsu> ucordes: yeah im trying to get it like windows for the power saving
[12:44] <dr_willis> justin420,  i dont think umask is wha tya want.. unless you start using 'groups' for that stuff.
[12:44] <tehsu> ive got the ati low volting down now
[12:45] <tehsu> just waiting on the new kernel so i can test cpu low voltage
[12:45] <ucordes> tehsu: you thought about making a small script and set it into the startup, so your ati settings are loaded automatically on boot?
[12:45] <ucordes> i don
[12:45] <lgc> What about setting the locale? I'm tired of unreadable characters on my screen! Anyone?
[12:45] <PowerCat> thanks dr_willis for giving me technical support :P
[12:45] <ucordes> sorry. i don't know how to but this would be a nice solution for your problem
[12:45] <ENE|Toxic> How can I change default shell to /bin/bash?
[12:46] <justin420> dr_willis: maybe not, i tried stfw; and it seemed to me as that is what i should use, but probably not.  I have a NAS drive, and would like fstab to automatically mount the shares and each user can only view their own share, with one exception of one of the shares being shared by all. that includes reading, writing and exec.
[12:46] <lady_15> hola
[12:46] <lgc> ENE|Toxic, have you tried messing with /etc/passwd?
[12:46] <TheGame> is there a way to use amarok without playlists
[12:46] <tehsu> ucordes: i will try it after i get everything working
[12:46] <TheGame> like i want to click on a song in my collection and play it
[12:46] <lgc> lady_15 hola.
[12:47] <tehsu> ucordes: i know i have to use bum
[12:47] <ucordes> tehsu: bum :-) ? what's bum?
[12:47] <tehsu> ucordes: boot up manager
[12:47] <ENE|Toxic> lgc: nah, my personal computer works fine and all. It's that at work shell is default set to tsch, in which I prefer bash, and was thinking if there was a neat way to change it.
[12:47] <TheGame> i want amarok to be like rythmbox except i dont want it to crash as much
[12:47] <ucordes> oh ok
[12:48] <ucordes> oh rythmbox never crashed here. and i got like 60gig of albums in it
[12:48] <tehsu> ucordes: whats ur laptop run at when loaded with stuff
[12:48] <lgc> ENE|Toxic, that's the only one I know, but that doesn't mean much, though.
[12:48] <ucordes> you are doing something wrong with it, TheGame
[12:48] <tehsu> ucordes: temp wise
[12:48] <ENE|Toxic> lgc: ok thanks anyway
[12:48] <tehsu> ucordes: acpi -t << to check
[12:48] <TheGame> how cani be doing something wrong in it

[12:49] <ucordes> sure
[12:49] <TheGame> will u run it fromt erminal
[12:49] <ENE|Toxic> How can I change default shell to /bin/bash from /bin/tcsh? (preferably a way which doesn't require root-access).
[12:49] <TheGame> and see if u get any errors
[12:49] <zerojakel> how i configure a tv terminator?
[12:49] <dr_willis> ENE|Toxic,  use the chsh command

[01:00] <ucordes> tehsu: ok thanks
[01:00] <Mikey> moustafa, You use 2.6.12 with Dapper?
[01:00] <skarface> brooklyn: because it's debian
[01:00] <moustafa> yes
[01:01] <moustafa> yes Mikey
[01:01] <brooklyn> skarface: i figured... but i thought it would list it as ubuntu =P
[01:01] <skarface> ;)
[01:01] <Mikey> Did you upgrade from breezy to dapper, or just install it on dapper?
[01:01] <tehsu> ucordes: ever low volt ur cpu in ubuntu?

[01:03] <zebedee> Hey I just replied on artwork to say thanks, so thanks :-)
[01:03] <kyozabe> oh
[01:03] <skarface> nozorro: probably java chat, meaning he doesn't have the browser plugin
[01:03] <Mikey> Er
[01:03] <Mikey> No problem moustafa
[01:03] <kyozabe> I'm using irssi over ssh, so I didn't see the msg notification
[01:03] <nozorro> skarface: oops
[01:04] <bonZiiii> zebedee: r u from the art team?
[01:04] <kyozabe> I know about sudo
[01:04] <eyequeue> kyozabe, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[01:04] <kyozabe> it doesn't seem to be working, though
[01:04] <ucordes> is there any GUI to set acpi settings?
[01:04] <kyozabe> nevermind
[01:04] <eyequeue> kyozabe, we don't do root in ubuntu

[01:06] <zebedee> No I have installed ubuntu over windows and got lost, found my way here, well actually on the art channel, I was looking for help... You guys type so fast!! :-)
[01:06] <ladydoor> azcazandco: i'm back
[01:06] <kyozabe> well
[01:06] <kyozabe> uh, how do you paste things from the clipboard ino irssi?
[01:07] <kyozabe> into*
[01:07] <kyozabe> ctrl + v doesn't work, and there's no menu on right click
[01:07] <volvoguy> zebedee, this is the place to ask! i would have helped you in the art channel but I don't use evolution myself. :)
[01:07] <sean> Hi I was wondering if there was a way to setup my mozlla easier.... Doesnt anyone know if there is a complete 'media install package'  for plug-ins  like: flash, quicktime, java etc.. ???
[01:07] <zebedee> Evolution keeps tellin me I cant send messages cos I have a broken pipe, i have no idea what this means, or how to fix it ??
[01:07] <eyequeue> kyozabe, no idea about a "clipboard" but i use screen(1) for my pastes (and always with irssi)
[01:07] <BHSPitMonkey> kyozabe, try clicking both mouse buttons at the same time on the terminal
[01:07] <nikin> Shift Insert will do the paste
[01:08] <habeeb> Greetings. In python, how can I ask the user of the program to define a variable?
[01:08] <ompaul> kyja, highlight the text you want with right click and drag to highlight and use middle button to paste
[01:08] <BHSPitMonkey> habeeb, a python-related channel would be more appropriate (and more effective in answering your question, probably)
[01:08] <brendonjt> hello  all
[01:08] <habeeb> BHSPitMonkey: ye, but #ubuntu was the first that flashed in my mind :P
[01:08] <kyozabe> or not, nikin :(
[01:08] <ompaul> habeeb, have a look in #python
[01:09] <habeeb> ok
[01:09] <PsychOtiC> I am running an apache2 server, and ircd-hybrid server
[01:09] <letsgfuad> anyone know how to get my external hd to work?
[01:09] <nikin> but the paste depends on the termminal you are using
[01:09] <brooklyn> can anyone direct me to a program that will let me play .mpg files?
[01:09] <PsychOtiC> when I try to connect to them over my ip it says connection refused
[01:09] <PsychOtiC> and no firewall is running
[01:09] <BHSPitMonkey> letsgfuad, given more details about your problem, I'm sire one of us could help
[01:09] <eyequeue> !mp3 > brooklyn
[01:09] <PsychOtiC> and netstat says it is listening on all ports
[01:09] <kyozabe> by clipboard I mean copy and paste
[01:09] <PsychOtiC> how do i fix it?
[01:09] <kyozabe> ctrl + c and ctrl + v respectively
[01:10] <kyozabe> and I'm running irssi in screen over SSH
[01:10] <BHSPitMonkey> brooklyn, look at that link from ubotu, but also look at the program vlc (available in the repos)
[01:10] <overshard> How do i open up an iptables port using terminal?
[01:10] <eyequeue> kyozabe, screen(1) does that for me in irssi
[01:10] <nozorro> kyozabe: pasting with middle button doesn't work?
[01:10] <kyozabe> btw, clicking both buttons didn't work
[01:10] <sethk> overshard, you edit the configuration files
[01:10] <eyequeue> kyozabe, ^A[ and ^A]   then
[01:10] <overshard> sethk, where are they
[01:10] <sethk> overshard, let me look
[01:10] <kyozabe> I think that only works with things copied from within irssi
[01:11] <kyozabe> screw it, I'll tinyurl the link
[01:11] <PsychOtiC> I am running an apache2 server, and ircd-hybrid server; when I try to connect to them over my ip it says connection refused; and netstat says it is listening on all port. How do I make sure ports 6667 and 80 are open, and that nothing is refusing connections
[01:11] <eyequeue> kyozabe, no, anywhere within screen
[01:11] <TheGame> any1 wanna look at this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22193
[01:11] <kyozabe> yeah, within screen
[01:11] <help> does any of you know any programs or what so every so i can start creating projects using the c++ code
[01:11] <kyozabe> firefox isn't within screen :p
[01:11] <eyequeue> kyozabe, eww, lynx rocks:)
[01:12] <kyozabe> http://tinyurl.com/msvpy = Youtube sound fix for Firefox
[01:12] <eyequeue> kyozabe, but yes. no gui apps
[01:12] <sethk> overshard, docs are at:  http://www.netfilter.org/.
[01:12] <kyozabe> I'm sure it rocks as hard as any program being run in a terminal can
[01:12] <overshard> sethk, i just want to know how to open up a single port -_-
[01:12] <kyozabe> which is not very much at all
[01:13] <kyozabe> not very hard at all, that is
[01:13] <eyequeue> kyozabe, i prefer it in console, no need for x to run at all, but okay
[01:13] <kyozabe> why not run X?
[01:13] <sethk> overshard, you use the iptables command.
[01:13] <kyozabe> I run aiglx myself
[01:13] <eyequeue> kyozabe, bloat
[01:13] <kyozabe> it's beautiful on my laptop
[01:13] <kyozabe> what's wrong with that?
[01:13] <sethk> overshard, you list rules with -L, and you can delete a chain and then add a chain (in olther words, modify a chain)
[01:13] <kyozabe> if you've got it, use it
[01:14] <sean> Hi I was wondering if there was a way to setup my mozlla easier.... Doesnt anyone know if there is a complete 'media install package'  for plug-ins  like: flash, quicktime, java etc.. ???
[01:14] <overshard> sethk, er ok
[01:14] <eyequeue> kyozabe, why pay for hardware that's not needed, i say ;)
[01:14] <kyozabe> and I'm 70% sure you can't properly view porn in lynx
[01:14] <Jamminpotato> you can see some porn
[01:14] <boricua> i dont see this printer on the hardwarelist, any idea how long before it is supported by ubuntu http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5078906
[01:14] <Jamminpotato> you just have to use your imagination
[01:14] <eyequeue> kyozabe, i have for years, just install zgv as well
[01:14] <kyozabe> which, in tur, defeats the purpose of having internet access in the first place
[01:14] <sethk> kyozabe, this isn't much text based porn  :)
[01:15] <eyequeue> Jamminpotato, false
[01:15] <sean> !video

[01:15] <ispiked> anyone know which mirros are up?
[01:15] <ispiked> us.archive.u.o is down, it seems, and I need to get a package RSN.
[01:15] <TheGame> no1 here can look at this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22193

[01:16] <eyequeue> ispiked, try uk.* ?
[01:16] <brendonjt> sean:  sudo update-alternatives --config java for configure ff to use that java
[01:16] <ucordes> no GUI for acpi settings out there? since some ppl have to change them often it could be very useful..
[01:16] <ispiked> eyequeue: yeah...
[01:16] <eyequeue> ispiked, us does seem down here too, sigh
[01:17] <brendonjt> sean: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree, sudo update-flashplugin  for flash plugin
[01:17] <azcazandco> ladydoor: you about still?
[01:17] <ladydoor> azcazandco: now i am
[01:17] <eyequeue> ispiked, and ca was the same machine as us a while back, so don't bother with that one
[01:17] <nekoz> mm

[01:17] <ispiked> eyequeue: trying uk right now.
[01:17] <azcazandco> do I just install now
[01:17] <nekoz> would anyone have a xorg.conf that they could post somewhere that uses nvidia vid card and both monitors are independant in resolution etc ???
[01:18] <nekoz> im having a bear of a time getting that to work
[01:18] <sean> thank you brendon
[01:18] <ispiked> eyequeue: yeah, uk's good. thanks.
[01:18] <nekoz> its like in dapper its forcing twinview whether the compy wants it or not
[01:18] <nekoz> !paste
[01:18] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[01:18] <eyequeue> ispiked, cool, thanks for the confirmation
[01:18] <ladydoor> azcazandco: go for it!
[01:18] <mrd> I asked a question earlier and then got cut off.  which sun models are supported by ubuntu?
[01:18] <brendonjt> sean: for acrobat sudo apt-get install acroread mozilla-acroread acroread-plugins
[01:18] <mrd> are sparc 10/20 and ultra 1/2 supported?
[01:18] <eyequeue> !hardware
[01:18] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[01:19] <brendonjt> sean: i hope that  helps you out
[01:19] <mrd> thanks
[01:19] <nekoz> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22197  <<<--- my current xorg.conf
[01:19] <eyequeue> mrd, hope it helps
[01:19] <nekoz> i cant figure out what i could be missing
[01:19] <sean> yes it does thank you
[01:19] <nekoz> this used to work under breezy but its not worked since i updated to dapper ~_~
[01:21] <nekoz> mmm brb
[01:22] <azcazandco> ladydoor: am feeling quite sleepy... think I might leave the install for the morning
[01:22] <ladydoor> azcazandco: kk
[01:22] <ladydoor> sleep well
[01:22] <azcazandco> thanks for your help
[01:22] <assitch> hi all
[01:23] <brooklyn> if i am already running gnome ubuntu desktop, can i switch to kde if desired?
[01:24] <unio> i'm getting an error with synaptic (i'll post it on pastebin, because i want to show more than the error message) -- i can run synaptic as a regular user... but when i try to run it as root; it stops working, any ideas?
[01:24] <ladydoor> azcazandco: np
[01:24] <sethk> unio, do you get the X permission error?
[01:24] <unio> "(synaptic:4932): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[01:24] <unio> "
[01:25] <Nosscire> Could someone please explain to me how to "split" files using tar's? I have a file that I must fit on USB stick. The file is almost 500mb, but I only have 400mb on the USB stick.
[01:25] <assitch> anyone here know how to get ubuntu to recognize my broadcom wifi
[01:25] <sethk> unio, right, that's your X display not allowing other users to display on it (root is another user).  just do sudo synaptic.  This is not a problem nor is it an error
[01:25] <cafuego> assitch: wiki.ubuntu.com -> search for bcm43xx
[01:25] <unio> ah
[01:25] <brooklyn> if i am already running gnome ubuntu desktop, can i switch to kde if desired?
[01:25] <cafuego> assitch: Note the firmware.
[01:25] <unio> thanks, sethk :)
[01:25] <assitch> i tried that
[01:26] <assitch> still get invalid ap
[01:26] <minimec> brooklyn: yes you can.
[01:26] <unio> actually, sethk (i'll post it on pastebin), same "warning" message
[01:26] <sethk> unio, there are ways to allow other users to display on the X terminal, but in this case it isn't necessary
[01:26] <assitch> and it says my card is inactive
[01:26] <minimec> brooklyn: sudo apt-get install kde
[01:26] <sethk> unio, oh, that's the DISPLAY not set error
[01:26] <sethk> unio, in the terminal, do this:   export DISPLAY=:0.0
[01:27] <brooklyn> minimec: ok, and once installed, how do i switch from gnome to kde? - sorry, im a bit new :)
[01:27] <unio> :D w00t! it works now, thanks sethk
[01:27] <crazdiam> hello
[01:27] <sethk> unio, np
[01:28] <brendonjt> kia ora crazdiam
[01:28] <eyequeue> tar split?  who wanted?
[01:28] <minimec> brooklyn: you login-screen is a software called gdm. GDM vies you the possibility to choose a 'session'. There you can choose kde
[01:28] <brooklyn> minimec: ok, and once installed, how do i switch from gnome to kde? - sorry, im a bit new :)
[01:28] <brooklyn> oops sorry :)
[01:28] <crazdiam> question, i installed a newer vers of k3b as well as a konqburn, both have broken dependencies , well i can do without them, the problem is, apt-get now wants to remove k3b,konqburn AND kubuntu-desktop
[01:28] <brooklyn> ty minimec :)
[01:28] <crazdiam> can i avoid this?
[01:28] <eyequeue> Nosscire, you?
[01:28] <minimec> ;)
[01:29] <Nosscire> eyeqyeye, what?
[01:29] <UKMatt> can someone help me add a repo, i've never done that
[01:29] <eyequeue> Nosscire, tar and split are separate commands, with separate man pages ... here is an example of piping one into the other (for making backups)
[01:29] <brooklyn> minmec: so once i install kde, and reboot, i will have the option to switch between the two?
[01:30] <ladydoor> !repositories > UKMatt
[01:30] <minimec> brooklyn: Yes :)
[01:30] <eyequeue> Nosscire, "tar czvf - source | split -b 650m tarpiece-"
[01:30] <brooklyn> ty :)
[01:30] <brendonjt> crazdiam:  the kubunut-desktop  doesn't matter  it won't remove kde.  remove  k3b and kburn,  and reinstall them
[01:30] <crazdiam> ok
[01:30] <crazdiam> thanks
[01:30] <eyequeue> Nosscire, that came from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=81311&page=3
[01:30] <brendonjt> crazdiam:  you may need another dependinces
[01:31] <minimec> brooklyn: well you don't even have to reboot... you can do 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'. ;)
[01:31] <brendonjt> crazdiam:  sudo apt-get install k3b
[01:31] <eyequeue> Nosscire, about 1/3 down the page
[01:31] <nozorro> UKMatt: use System > Admin > Software Properties
[01:31] <ubuntu> alo
[01:31] <crazdiam> yeah got thati just wanted to make sure that removing kubuntu-desktop wasnt going to remove KDE
[01:31] <blocky> can I safely format my /home partition?
[01:31] <eyequeue> Nosscire, "cat tarpiece-* > file.tar.gz"  to reassemble
[01:32] <UKMatt> nozorro, the web site gives a repo, how do i change that link into adding it
[01:32] <crazdiam> thanks for the help
[01:32] <ubuntu> im sudaca
[01:32] <omnid> Is there a way to skip the automatic fsck
[01:32] <brendonjt> crazdiam:  nah  iirc  it was just used for updating etc etc  it all cool
[01:32] <omnid> because of it it does not allow me to get into ubuntu
[01:32] <eyequeue> ubuntu, /nick sudaca
[01:32] <ubuntu> error my HD
[01:32] <nozorro> UKMatt: or edit sources.list, with 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[01:32] <Nosscire> Checking now, thanks :)
[01:32] <brendonjt> ubuntu: what's up  with your hdd
[01:32] <Mikey> Hey, I've downgraded my kernel to 2.6.12, and my udev to breezy's verion, but now I don't have /dev/input/
[01:33] <sudaca> tanks
[01:33] <eyequeue> Nosscire, no prob
[01:33] <Mikey> Is there something I've forgotten to do?
[01:33] <longwave> omnid: you should just let fsck finish. if it doesn't continue into ubuntu afterwards, there is a problem with your drive, surely?
[01:33] <eyequeue> sudaca, much nicer now :)
[01:33] <sudaca> i have aproblem with my HD
[01:33] <omnid> longwave yeah... I hope not...
[01:33] <UKMatt> nozorro, do i put deb in front of the link?
[01:33] <brendonjt> sudaca:  whats the problem
[01:33] <omnid> argh
[01:33] <Mikey> Is it even udev that makes /dev/input?
[01:33] <longwave> omnid: what does fsck say when it finishes? does it drop you into a root shell for recovery, or something else?
[01:33] <lostinc> In nautilus there is a bookmark feature. Is there a way to have it sort the bookmarks by name?
[01:34] <omnid> It says to run it manually
[01:34] <eyequeue> UKMatt, try to follow the example of the other lines, but "man sources.list" explains details/format
[01:34] <nozorro> UKMatt: yeah, unless you want to install source code
[01:34] <omnid> So it is running manually with it autoresponding with yes for each recovery question
[01:35] <omnid> I don't have my Ubuntu disc anymore and there are no other burners on another computer...
[01:35] <longwave> omnid: does it continue after that, or are there still errors?
[01:35] <eyequeue> omnid, it can be alarming when it happens, but 99% of the time, it completes without incident, then reboot and all is well
[01:35] <UKMatt> i added "deb http://www.planetgargoyle.com/openarena/svn dapper" and reloaded and it gave me an error
[01:35] <iLikeSpoons> so, klogd keeps using up moer than 70% of my cpu
[01:35] <iLikeSpoons> all the time
[01:36] <omnid> There are still errors
[01:36] <omnid> like tons of them
[01:36] <iLikeSpoons> writing errors about my radeon card all the time
[01:36] <omnid> duplicate blocks mostly
[01:36] <eyequeue> UKMatt, no "main" or anything after that"
[01:36] <Mikey> !input
[01:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about input - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:36] <nozorro> UKMatt: wait, let me check the link ...
[01:36] <Mikey> =( I lack /dev/input.
[01:36] <eyequeue> UKMatt, it wants a repo after "dapper"
[01:36] <UKMatt> eyequeue, i have no idea what to add after
[01:36] <iLikeSpoons> any way I can stop/help this that isn't "buy a new video card"?
[01:36] <omnid> longwave there are still duplicate block errors after
[01:37] <nozorro> UKMatt: but this isn't a regular repo, or have i missed anything?
[01:37] <eyequeue> UKMatt, browse the url with firefos or something, to determine the structure they used on that archive, and compare it to an ubuntu archive
[01:37] <wastrel> print gocco
[01:37] <assitch> do i follow the wiki verbatim, even if its a fresh install?
[01:37] <tuxtheslacker> hey. can anyone think of anything that is like expose on mac osx for ubuntu?
[01:37] <longwave> omnid: it sounds like the filesystem is pretty messed up. your drive may be failing, if it wasn't anything due to anything you did in ubuntu...
[01:38] <omnid> Allright
[01:38] <UKMatt> eyequeue, thats way beyond me
[01:38] <tim_> on ubuntu server, what is the default mysql password?
[01:38] <iLikeSpoons> anyone have any ideas on the radeon problem?
[01:38] <omnid> Well... I may be getting a decent sum of cash next month. Maybe I can get a laptop more suited for linux
[01:38] <Mikey> brb
[01:38] <nozorro> UKMatt: this is no ubuntu or debian repo it seems to me
[01:38] <abo> how do we unblock someone on gaim?
[01:38] <eyequeue> UKMatt, um, you can't type a url into firefox?
[01:38] <omnid> Like one with a supported nvidia card
[01:38] <UKMatt> eyequeue, yeah but i really don't even know how a repo works, so couldnt compare it
[01:38] <DaJudge> How do you find your IP address assigned to your computer in UBUNTU?

[01:39] <ladydoor> abo: there should be privacy settings somewhere
[01:39] <tuxtheslacker> hey, is there a kompose application for gnome?
[01:39] <UKMatt> i was gonna put on a UB game and play around see how they are but it's not a big deal
[01:39] <longwave> omnid: check out those lists before you buy a laptop :)
[01:39] <eri1> hey can anyone help me install a irc client
[01:39] <eri1> ?
[01:39] <omnid> What lists
[01:39] <eyequeue> DaJudge, "ifconfig"
[01:39] <tim_> on ubuntu server, what is the default mysql password?
[01:39] <longwave> omnid: look at the links ubotu just said

[01:40] <tim_> on ubuntu server, what is the default mysql password?

[01:46] <iLikeSpoons> sorry about being boring and poking at you all, but this is totally not the first time this has happened and it is damn annoying :(
[01:46] <mikey> Can anyone give any advice on why I don't have [any mice]  in /dev/input? :(
[01:47] <shut-> how do i open irssi it is installed
[01:47] <spuddogg> anyone know if i can partition my drive without formatting?
[01:47] <ladydoor> shut-: it's a terminal app
[01:47] <mikey> shut-: Type "irssi", that's what I did.
[01:47] <spuddogg> anyone know if i can partition my drive without formatting?
[01:48] <mikey> spuddogg: Yes
[01:48] <brendonjt> shut_:  or you could creat a launcher  for it as well
[01:48] <WD_Raptor> DROOL
[01:48] <spuddogg> mikey, any idea how?
[01:48] <WD_Raptor> I just made this computer
[01:48] <mikey> spuddogg: Just don't delete the existing partitions, and you wont lose everything
[01:48] <mikey> If you've got the ubuntu livecd, I believe it comes with GTPartEd
[01:48] <spuddogg> mikey: is there a prog for that?  i'm not running the live disc, BTW
[01:48] <sethk> spuddogg, partitioning does nothing at all to the actual data
[01:49] <WD_Raptor> I want to have it but I can't afford it. But if I had it, I could run ubunutu at lightning speeds
[01:49] <WD_Raptor> Look at this computer http://pastebin.ca/156726 I built this on Newegg
[01:49] <omnid> I got it to work somehow!
[01:49] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: what is the error that klogd is logging?
[01:49] <lgc_> In layman terms, what's the difference between UTF-8 and ISO-whatever encoding?
[01:49] <omnid> longwave it works thanks lawl
[01:49] <mikey> spuddogg: Generally, free partitioning apps need to be run from a livecd
[01:49] <iLikeSpoons> well, it's logging nothing into any log in /var/log or subdirectories
[01:49] <iLikeSpoons> that's the strange part
[01:49] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: you said something about your radeon card
[01:49] <eyequeue> lgc_, utf is the newfangled thing that's politically correct? ;)
[01:49] <nozorro> lgc_: UTF can display a vast array of human language chars, iso* only a subset of them
[01:50] <mikey> spuddogg: Make backups of important data before repartitioning. It doesn't always happen, but there's a chance it can mess up.
[01:50] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: are the errors reported by "dmesg" ?
[01:50] <iLikeSpoons> yeah, I read through that... it reported a bunch of errors on startup, but nothing in the last couple of hours
[01:50] <Xenguy> lgc_: look up 'unicode' on wikipedia.org
[01:50] <spuddogg> mikey, so if i boot with the live cd, i can partition without hurting my data?  and without actually going through the install process again?
[01:50] <cheesy1> mikey,  have you looked into /dev/MAKEDEV ?
[01:50] <eyequeue> lgc_, iso is the old international standards group, and they wrote a standard for individual areas, not the "universal" one
[01:50] <lgc_> eyequeue, nozorro, thanks. That means I get to choose UTF-8 by all means?
[01:50] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: can you put the dmesg output into a pastebin? the startup errors may be important still
[01:50] <mikey> cheesy1: Nope, not atall, what is it?
[01:50] <lgc_> Xenguy, thanks.
[01:50] <Xenguy> lgc_: unicode is the future - yw
[01:51] <nozorro> lgc_: you should if you use anything non-English on a regular basis. 'it's the future.'
[01:51] <cheesy1> mikey, a script to create devices in /dev
[01:51] <iLikeSpoons> longwawe - in a couple of seconds
[01:51] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: also, does this happen every time you boot, and with no applications running? have you tried running without X to see if that makes a difference?
[01:51] <eyequeue> lgc_, pick what works, but utf compliance seems to be everyone's target, and it's no longer so new to be unsupported
[01:51] <mikey> spuddogg: GTPartEd, the program on the livecd should allow you to resize the ones you've got. It's sometimes risky, particularly with ntfs, but as long as you backup crucial stuff it's okay.
[01:51] <iLikeSpoons> longwawe, it hasn't happened in a while
[01:51] <mikey> cheesy1: I'll give it a go now. Thanks :)
[01:51] <Twister99> does ~/.vimrc work by default on the default install?
[01:51] <lgc_> eyequeue, I see.
[01:51] <iLikeSpoons> a few months ago, it started happening constantly
[01:51] <spuddogg> mikey, i'll give it a whirl...thanks man
[01:51] <iLikeSpoons> to the point where my machine froze up a few times I day
[01:52] <cheesy1> mikey, more info in man MAKEDEV
[01:52] <iLikeSpoons> I finally found this bug
[01:52] <Xenguy> Twister99: better to customize
[01:52] <iLikeSpoons> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/+bug/16873 <-
[01:52] <kdean06> Hello all.
[01:52] <eyequeue> lgc_, btw, "unicode" and utf-8 can be viewed as synonyms, for you (utf-16 exists though, i think)
[01:52] <Twister99> Xenguy: yes, but does something need configured?
[01:52] <kdean06> How does one set a different C compiler as default on Dapper?
[01:52] <Twister99> I cannot seem to get set modeline to work...
[01:52] <iLikeSpoons> and, since I have a radeon 7000, I guessed it was it. I reinstalled, as I had schoolwork to do and never explored, as it didn't start happening. Until, like, yesterday
[01:52] <lgc_> eyequeue, what does the suffix "8" (and "16") mean?
[01:52] <hardkaare> HI, I have installed the xlg thing, and its very nice, now im wondring how ppl change the look of the gnome panels?
[01:53] <Xenguy> Twister99: not sure - I wouldn't consider not customizing (heavily) tho
[01:53] <eyequeue> lgc_, bits
[01:53] <brendonjt> !xgl
[01:53] <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
[01:53] <Xenguy> Twister99: it should work out of the box if that is what you mean
[01:53] <Twister99> yes, hmm interesting.
[01:53] <ugarit> when I insert my sd card into my toshiba laptop it's not automounted nor recongnized.  How do I fix that?
[01:53] <bergan> Does anyone know if the live-CD has SATA drivers on it?
[01:53] <nozorro> lgc_: 16 refers to a newer version of the unicode standard i think. read it up on wikipedia
[01:54] <eyequeue> lgc_, 8 bits in a byte, "double-byte" character sets use the 16 .... some of those with 300 or more characters would need it, for example
[01:54] <Xenguy> Twister99: there are many .vimrc's available on the web, if you want a starting point BTW
[01:54] <cheesy1> wonder if xgl/compiz will run on my intel (not so) extreme2 built in graphics
[01:54] <Twister99> oh ok it does appear to be working...
[01:54] <DanTesS> could someone help me ? I've got a problem with my graphic card (7900GT)
[01:54] <lgc_> eyequeue, is that enough for Mandarin, for example?
[01:54] <Twister99> I must have screwed something else up, thanks
[01:54] <iLikeSpoons> longwave, here's the dmsg output. It doesn't show any errors, while Xorg.0.log shows a few
[01:54] <iLikeSpoons> http://pastebin.com/781020
[01:54] <eyequeue> nozorro, i think anything with more than 255 characters has to go 16
[01:55] <Twister99> ha, needed a space between # and vim
[01:55] <lostinc> how do you change a folders icon? Or add new emblems?
[01:55] <Twister99> oh, the simple things...
[01:55] <nozorro> lgc_: maybe, but at the beginning you where talking about 'laymen's terms' :-)
[01:55] <gre1> how do i reconfigure xserver in ubuntu and which one would i select for a geforce fx 5200 card?
[01:56] <eyequeue> lgc_, well, if it has less than 65,535 characters ;)
[01:56] <nozorro> eyequeue:  sorry for the previous one
[01:56] <eyequeue> nozorro, np
[01:56] <mikey> cheesy1: Just to check, my mouse *should* be in /dev/input right?
[01:56] <nozorro> eyequeue: i was aiming for lgc_ ...
[01:57] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: a "dd" process died according to that dmesg output, and there is supposed to be a dd process running at all times to handle kernel logging...
[01:57] <gre1> how do i reconfigure xserver?
[01:57] <lgc_> nozorro, I'm a layman.
[01:57] <iLikeSpoons> oh, joy
[01:57] <eyequeue> nozorro, i *think* the distinction is 2^8-1 vs 2^16-1
[01:58] <eyequeue> gre1, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:58] <eyequeue> gre1, try it, i may have typoed, it just looks wrong somehow, heh
[01:58] <gre1> which video option would i select for geforce fx5200?
[01:58] <nozorro> eyequeue: maybe, anyway i believe 16 is not deployed as widely yet ...
[01:59] <gre1> which video option would i select for geforce fx5200 in xserver?
[01:59] <eyequeue> nozorro, no, basically the online world start with english, and has been slow to support those folks, good bad or otherwise, it's just reality ... ubuntu intends to not-ignore them though, at least :)
[01:59] <hardkaare>  does anyone know how to change the look of of the pannels?
[01:59] <iLikeSpoons> longwave - any ideas on the solution? just start it up myself, manually?
[02:00] <cheesy1> mikey, not sure. i certainly have /dev/input/mice and /dev/input/mouse0 but my system is not stock. i have messed with mouse support before and rebuilt my /dev
[02:00] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: i am not sure of the best way, it is started during the boot process so there may be a way of redoing that
[02:00] <eyequeue> lgc_, nozorro, if really interested in utf-16, #ubuntu-jp and the like probably know more than i do, certainly ;)
[02:00] <cheesy1> mikey, so i honestly couldn't tell you how a "standard install" should look.
[02:01] <nilesh892003> hello friends i am using ubuntu from last 2 months now i have problem with my system
[02:01] <visik7> how can I recompile an ubuntu kernel recreating all the debs ?
[02:01] <eyequeue> and sadly, they know much better english typically than i do their languages
[02:01] <mikey> cheesy1: Thanks anyway :)
[02:01] <nozorro> eyequeue: i'm not sure i can follow, anyway he should use utf if he can display the chars of his chosen langs with it (and not some iso-enconding)
[02:01] <eyequeue> nozorro, true
[02:01] <nilesh892003> i had detected that i have some bad sector in my hard disk ?how to repair it
[02:01] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: "sudo /etc/init.d/klogd restart" should do it
[02:02] <gre1> which option would i select for gefore card?
[02:02] <iLikeSpoons> yup. worked, thanks
[02:02] <nilesh892003> could i repair surface layer bad sectors of my hard disk????????????????????????????????????????????
[02:02] <cheesy1> !fsck
[02:02] <iLikeSpoons> it reported an error in not being able to stop the program with a PID that dd had :D
[02:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fsck - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:03] <cheesy1> nilesh892003, use the command fsck
[02:03] <lgc_> eyequeue, as a layman, I pass on that. I'm just running dpkg-reconfigure, but I am a bit confused with the Ubuntu help page dealing with LocaleConf.
[02:03] <sethk> nilesh892003, you can do a scan that marks bad sectors so they won't be used, but usually if there are bad sectors you have a dying drive
[02:03] <Xenguy> nilesh892003: nasty
[02:03] <sethk> nilesh892003, and you should be thinking about backing it up, not fixing it.
[02:03] <Xenguy> nilesh892003: punctuation that is :P
[02:03] <nilesh892003> ok
[02:03] <sethk> nilesh892003, use smartctl to dump its internal error information
[02:03] <sethk> cheesy1, fsck has nothing to do with bad sectors
[02:04] <nozorro> lgc_ can't you just use the desktop app for loading the needed lang support?
[02:04] <eyequeue> lgc_, i don't know the page myself, but honestly i think the common problem is people forget they need to install the language pack for their locale first
[02:04] <nilesh892003> i am new bi 2 could u help me what to type in command line all that
[02:04] <iLikeSpoons> wow...
[02:04] <lgc_> eyequeue, for example, I just finished the install and reconfiguration phases, but I still don't know how to enable another language, since I didn't get any option for that with dpkg-reconfigure.
[02:04] <iLikeSpoons> seems dd died as soon as klogd started again
[02:05] <iLikeSpoons> both dd and amarokk
[02:05] <lgc_> nozorro, where is that?
[02:05] <nozorro> lgc_: try System > Administration >  Language Support
[02:05] <eyequeue> lgc_, you did first install the language packs you need?
[02:05] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: out of interest, what language are you running ubuntu in?
[02:05] <iLikeSpoons> english
[02:05] <iLikeSpoons> :P
[02:06] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: there is a bug in launchpad where dd segfaults with certain language packs
[02:06] <SirKillalot> is there a download manager for ubuntu which support multiple connections to the server?
[02:06] <SirKillalot> http download client
[02:06] <cheesy1> sethk, i was under the impression that fsck was used to check and (optionally) repair the filesystem. Something he should do if he has gotten bad sectors. Other than that the harddrive should automatically flag the sectors as bad and best practice was to just let them be. Could be wrong though.
[02:06] <nozorro> lgc_: open this config app and select the lang support packages to be installed; select default lang. keyboard needs to be set elsewhere
[02:06] <AustLaw> just installed the k7-smp kernal, but it will not boot
[02:06] <lgc_> I installed "locales" and "localeconf". Other than that, I already forgot if I did so during the upgrade to Breezy.
[02:06] <AustLaw> says failed to load file system
[02:06] <sethk> cheesy1, fsck repairs file systems, yes.  and it's possible that a file system is corrupted by bad sectors.  however, fsck is not the program to use to find and mark bad sectors.
[02:07] <sethk> cheesy1, badblocks is the program for that
[02:07] <nilesh892003> hello how to fix I/O related hard disk error ,plz help me i am newbi in linux
[02:07] <longwave> AustLaw: does selecting the previous kernel work?
[02:07] <nozorro> lgc_: like i said, try the config app, i think it wasn't available in breezy but works quit nicely
[02:07] <sethk> nilesh892003, you don't fix it.  unless it is jumpered or cabled wrong.  you replace it.
[02:07] <lgc_> nozorro, Spanish and English are already selected.
[02:07] <iLikeSpoons> hmmm... another restart of klogd seemed to work fine. dd is running!
[02:07] <AustLaw> ya, im back on the previous kernal now
[02:07] <lgc_> nozorro, it is indeed available.
[02:08] <nozorro> lgc_ what else do you need, what doesn't work? Digame!
[02:08] <schnak37> hi everyone :)
[02:08] <schnak37> are you fine ? :)
[02:08] <brooklyn> Stupid question: which is more popular for desktop use, kde or gnome
[02:08] <sethk> brooklyn, who knows?  try both and use the one that you like
[02:08] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: things shouldn't really be crashing like that in the first place, but it's hard to tell if this is software or hardware
[02:08] <sethk> brooklyn, there isn't any reliable data on that
[02:08] <schnak37> brooklyn > that depends no ?
[02:08] <mikey> cheesy1: I've read the man page for MAKEDEV, and no matter what I run, "./MAKEDEV input" or "./MAKEDEV usb", it says it makes it, but an "ls" says otherwise. I used sudo, am I missing something?
[02:08] <iLikeSpoons> longwave - I'll blame it on the radeon 7000
[02:09] <iLikeSpoons> I'm getting an old geforce from a friend next week
[02:09] <lgc_> nozorro, I don't know if they will work from now on, but before this, the accented letters in Spanish got all messed up.
[02:09] <IR2539> need help
[02:09] <longwave> iLikeSpoons: let's hope that fixes it for you :)
[02:09] <brooklyn> ok, more specific question - which one do you guyse use? kde or gnome more? :)
[02:09] <iLikeSpoons> if this stops, it was the radeon. If not, I'm in deep trouble :P
[02:09] <nozorro> lgc_ i use english, german, french, and spanish packages side by side with no problem, to change the desktop lang you have to log out though
[02:09] <HeathenDan> i use xfce :P
[02:09] <nozorro> lgc_ which is your standard keyboard? us?
[02:09] <lgc_> nozorro, sounds like Windoze.
[02:10] <IR2539> i need modify --> gksudo gedit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom but this command is just dor graphic mode and i need to do in console
[02:10] <nozorro> lgc_ what sounds like Windows?
[02:10] <schnak37> mmh by the way, i'd like to know if it was possible to skip the movies in neverwinter nights by using nwmovies ?
[02:10] <lekvar> speaking of graphics cards, what about late model ati cards?
[02:10] <eyequeue> IR2539, sudo vim /file/path/name
[02:10] <lgc_> nozorro, the standard keyboard is Spanish. With "" and the like.
[02:10] <lgc_> nozorro, I mean, having to restart the whole sh*t.
[02:10] <eyequeue> IR2539, sudo nano, if you don't know vim
[02:11] <nozorro> lgc_ restart to *enter* other lang chars or to *display* them?
[02:11] <cheesy1> sethk, thank you for the information. Always good to learn something new.
[02:11] <schnak37> no body wants to answer to my question ? I supose so that there is here no nwn players :p ?
[02:11] <lgc_> nozorro, restart to display
[02:12] <AustLaw> sry dropped, the exact error is "Kernel Panic: VPS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:03"
[02:12] <sethk> schnak37, sorry, I don't even know what it is, let alone how to use it.
[02:12] <IR2539> thx
[02:12] <cheesy1> mikey, have you tried with the -v (verbose) flag to see if it actually does something ?
[02:12] <IR2539> to save
[02:12] <IR2539> ??
[02:12] <lgc_> nozorro, how can I change my status to "be right back"?
[02:12] <AustLaw> where is the grub config file again?
[02:12] <nozorro> lgc_ you mean you can't see the  for instance if you desktop lang is english?
[02:12] <eyequeue> IR2539, in vim?  hot esc a couple of times, then ":wq" without quotes, and enter
[02:13] <sethk> AustLaw, that's almost always caused by booting to a root file system when the kernel support for that file system is missing.  or by an invalid root= argument on the kernel command line
[02:13] <longwave> AustLaw: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:13] <eyequeue> lgc_, "/away be right back"
[02:13] <AustLaw> well it is a dual boot system
[02:13] <schnak37> sethk > thx, well, i'll doscover my answer all by my self :) mhhhh that will help me to enjoy my night
[02:13] <nozorro> lgc_ i use engl. as my destop lang and read and write in four langs all the time
[02:13] <lgc_> nozorro, I mean that, when I write "" on the terminal, I get something else.
[02:13] <longwave> AustLaw: put your menu.lst in a pastebin so we can see if there's anything you could try
[02:14] <eyequeue> lgc_, later, "/back" or just "/away" with no operands, if /back doesn't work
[02:14] <lgc_> eyequeue, thanks.
[02:14] <nozorro> lgc_: well apart from '' not being the most common char in a terminal, that looks like a keyboard config. problem to me -- provided you can still read Spanish in Firefox, for instance
[02:14] <AustLaw> k, the root looks the same on the old and new ternal boots
[02:14] <eyequeue> lgc_, no prob ... which client btw?
[02:15] <mikey> cheesy1: Yep, it says it created them. If i run it in another directory to test it, it'll make them there fine, just not actually in /dev/
[02:15] <AustLaw> http://paste-bin.com/231
[02:15] <tys> when I boot my laptop, after grub, it says hda: not ready for command
[02:15] <tys> does that means my harddisk is dying
[02:16] <sethk> tys, it could
[02:16] <tys> sethk: can I check that
[02:16] <lgc_> nozorro, I can read anything, the problem is when I get an e-mail with accents and "", for example. And when I cut-and-paste a special character, it gets garbled.
[02:16] <lgc_> eyequeue, X-chat.
[02:16] <sethk> tys, does it happen after you finish booting, ever?
[02:16] <AustLaw> I am booted into the top one now, so that one works
[02:17] <eyequeue> lgc_, yeah, no /back in xchat, just the bare /away to set yourself back
[02:17] <tys> my laptop is booting on this moment, but really slow
[02:17] <longwave> AustLaw: you installed the 2.4 k7 kernel, you should try the 2.6 one instead - linux-image-k7
[02:17] <matthewjames> hi, how do you change the interfacer, like windows blinds?
[02:17] <sethk> tys, run smartctl on it, dump its internal error information
[02:17] <sethk> tys, that will tell you if it is dying
[02:17] <tys> thx
[02:17] <nozorro> lgc_ hmm, doesn't happen to me, just tried it. it looks you really need to set everything to utf
[02:17] <eyequeue> matthewjames, pardon?
[02:18] <cheesy1> mikey, Sorry. Then it's out of my league. Hopefully someone has a solution to your problem.
[02:18] <DARKGuy> Greetings, can anybody tell me what's the equivalent of ".xinitrc" as I've seen in some tutorials on the net, in Ubuntu? like, the apps that get running after GDM logins, such as gnome-panel and such?
[02:18] <matthewjames> eyequere: how do you change the interface, like what windows blinds does?
[02:19] <nozorro> lgc_: like i said, my display lang is en_US, but i can write chars in german, french, spanish with no prob., just from the default config -- and with a German keyboard! So it must be possible!
[02:19] <eyequeue> DARKGuy, system > preferences > session
[02:19] <matthewjames> eyequeue: how do you change the interface, like what windows blinds does?
[02:19] <eyequeue> matthewjames, "windows blinds"  no c;ue what that means
[02:19] <mikey> cheesy1: Ok. Thanks anyway :) You've pointed me in the right direction.
[02:19] <eyequeue> matthewjames, man 5 interfaces, if you want to edit that file
[02:19] <AustLaw> longwave: will do
[02:20] <matthewjames> ok, umm, change what the desktop looks like, like the app bar, etc
[02:20] <eyequeue> matthewjames, that's not interfaces, interfaces is eth0 and the like
[02:20] <matthewjames> ah, what is that?
[02:20] <nozorro> lgc_: it occurs to me that once i had to delete all the lang settings in bash config files in the home dir once i upgraded to dapper -- maybe that helps in your case
[02:20] <matthewjames> desktop mods?
[02:21] <eyequeue> matthewjames, try right clicking on things, then try the system > preferences menu items, for things of that nature
[02:21] <AustLaw> longwave: I didnt even notice that there were more than I, which should I get for amd64x2 3800+?
[02:21] <matthewjames> ok
[02:21] <eyequeue> matthewjames, eth0?  it's probably the interface you're using now, to access the internet
[02:21] <matthewjames> kk
[02:21] <AustLaw> linux-image-2.6.15-26-k7?
[02:22] <JKing> Query the third: if I tell apt-get to just download packages, where do they end up?
[02:22] <eyequeue> matthewjames, your "windows" language is what was confusing, next time try just telling us what you want to do, since windows is not something uinderstood here
[02:22] <void^> JKing: in /var/cache/apt/archives
[02:22] <matthewjames> ok
[02:22] <JKing> Wonderful.  Thankee. :)
[02:22] <eyequeue> matthewjames, but we did get it answered, right?  or are you still a bit lost?
[02:22] <nozorro> lgc_: and another thing: remember that terminal and gedit, for instance, allow changing the encoding by hand during the session
[02:23] <mikey> brb
[02:23] <Trae> matthewjames, art.gnome.org and gnome-look.org
[02:23] <Trae> matthewjames, you are wanting "themes"
[02:23] <eyequeue> JKing, -d switch for that, btw
[02:23] <Trae> :)
[02:23] <DARKGuy_> :( hey I come from Windoze too. And I'm sure some of us used it once, maybe not enough to know what he knows, but still, it's just my opinion. Anyways, got disconnected. Anybody told me anything about what was the equivalent of .xinitrc in Ubuntu?
[02:23] <matthewjames> um, still want to know how to chnage and add permanant pannels to screen, like weath, pc load, etc?
[02:23] <longwave> AustLaw: just "linux-image-k7" will get any bug fix/security releases through the normal updates; if you install a specific version, that won't happen
[02:23] <matthewjames> yes themes
[02:23] <eyequeue> DARKGuy, system > preferences > session
[02:24] <Trae> matthewjames, system > prefeerences > themes
[02:24] <JKing> eyequeue: Yeah.  I was just naively expecting apt-get to download them to the working directory.
[02:24] <matthewjames> ok, ty
[02:24] <eyequeue> DARKGuy, not sure what file it gets saved to though
[02:24] <DARKGuy_> eyequeue: oh yay! some GUI to edit it, this rules :D
[02:24] <nozorro> eyequeue: .gnome2/session ?
[02:24] <eyequeue> JKing, heh, yeah, but it does do that in one situation, just to make it confusing, lol
[02:24] <DARKGuy_> eyequeue: don't worry, it's enough for the time being, thanks :)
[02:24] <DARKGuy_> nozorro: tried, but I see no session file there xD
[02:24] <eyequeue> JKing, apt-get -b source foo
[02:25] <longwave> matthewjames: if you want to add weather, cpu usage, network indicators, etc. to a gnome panel, right-click on a panel and select "add to panel"
[02:25] <matthewjames> ok, ty
[02:25] <eyequeue> nozorro, i would have guessed that dir, made a change, then grepped that dir to find the string i added to identify the file, heh
[02:25] <matthewjames> wait, where gnome pannel?
[02:26] <eyequeue> matthewjames, what longwave said is a really nifty feature :)
[02:26] <matthewjames> longwave:wait, where gnome pannel?
[02:26] <jiangshi> I installed the traceroute package but for some reason it times out after it gets passed my router
[02:26] <eyequeue> matthewjames, that "bar" at the top and bottom is a program called gnome-panel
[02:26] <jiangshi> can anyone help?
[02:26] <matthewjames> ok, ty alot!
[02:26] <eyequeue> matthewjames, hence gnome refers to those things as "panels" if you see that term
[02:27] <IR2539> ?? can i install xgl in ubuntu runnig in vmware
[02:27] <matthewjames> but how insert the pc info into panel?
[02:27] <eyequeue> matthewjames, it seems like there's a different language used, huh? :)
[02:27] <no0tic> anyone could help me with a remote control on my laptop?
[02:27] <matthewjames> nvm, found it, add to pannel:P
[02:27] <eyequeue> matthewjames, right click on it, then select add and a ton of goodies show up ... pick one
[02:27] <JKing> eyequeue: That's more than I wanted to know, but very interesting nonetheless.  Still, that -si- what you would expect to do if you wanted it to build source.  But, er... does it download the -source- to the working directly, or just copy the built data to the working directory?
[02:27] <matthewjames> ty alot guys
[02:28] <JKing> er... is, rather.
[02:28] <eyequeue> JKing, without the -b, it just fetches to current dir, with the -b, it buids it all in a subdir, and then puts the resulting deb in the current dir
[02:29] <JKing> That's whacky. :)
[02:29] <boricua> i dont see this printer on the hardwarelist, any idea how long before it is supported by ubuntu http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5078906
[02:29] <marloes> where am I?
[02:29] <IR2539> who i do install the kernel I686 and the support for SMP
[02:29] <eyequeue> JKing, i wouldn't want a ton of .c files in current dir, all jumbled, subdirs there make sense, and are even reasonably named, lol
[02:30] <eyequeue> marloes, localhost
[02:30] <longwave> IR2539: install the "linux-image-686" package. SMP is included by default now.
[02:30] <jman8888> How can i make a new 35 gig partition from my 70 gb partition?
[02:30] <marloes> local host?
[02:30] <marloes> eyequeue
[02:30] <marloes> i don't get this
[02:30] <eyequeue> IR2539, sudo apt-get install linux-image-686
[02:30] <matthewf> Ubuntu has the Nforce4 Intel stuff in it by default right ?
[02:30] <eyequeue> marloes, what did you need?
[02:30] <IR2539> thx
[02:30] <marloes> just seen this on my pc and thought i open it and now all these people talking pc stuff
[02:31] <Exclamation> hi
[02:31] <marloes> didn't need anything
[02:31] <nozorro> boricua: sadly, impossible to tell. a driver will get developed if and when someone volunteers to do it. that said, have you checked linuxprinting.org ?
[02:31] <iLikeSpoons> marlos, this is THE room for ubuntu people, especially ubuntu people with problems :P
[02:31] <eyequeue> marloes, you have joined #ubuntu a support channel for the linux distribution, on the freenode irc network
[02:31] <marloes> eyequeue;unless someone here can help me get rid of spam hahah
[02:31] <nozorro> boricua: HP printers are generally well supported
[02:31] <eyequeue> marloes, fry it up, feed it to your dog, lol
[02:32] <Exclamation> is initng really worth it?
[02:32] <jman8888> How do i make a new partition from my ubuntu partition?
[02:32] <marloes> eyequeue; so that means you all talk linux stuff and that's it?
[02:32] <eyequeue> Exclamation, i tried it and didn't like it, but ... heh
[02:32] <marloes> eyequeue; good plan but have no dog
[02:32] <eyequeue> marloes, in this channel, yes, but there's other channels
[02:32] <AustLaw`> well it got past the root file system error
[02:32] <Exclamation> eyequeue: is it faster?
[02:33] <AustLaw`> but failed to laod x-server, driver issues
[02:33] <eyequeue> marloes, it's a geek network though, so it will probably all be borning, lol
[02:33] <matthewjames> hey, where can i download more themes?
[02:33] <marloes> eyequeue: how do i get to the other ones so? and you a computer geek hihi??!! LOL
[02:33] <AustLaw`> I assume I need different drivers for the new kernal?
[02:33] <eyequeue> matthewjames, watch the msf from the bot
[02:33] <jiangshi> I have installed the Traceroute package, but when i try to run it, it times out after my router. Can some one help me
[02:33] <nuxord> hi
[02:33] <eyequeue> !themes > matthewjames
[02:33] <boricua> nozorro: i havent checked linuxprinting but i did check ubuntu hardwarelist
[02:33] <silent_scream> hi all! how can i see an .avi in xine with subtitles??
[02:33] <nozorro> matthewjames: http://art.gnome.org/
[02:33] <nuxord> how can i play videos in youtube..how can i get the flash plugin????
[02:33] <jman8888> Can anybody see me? Im being ignored.
[02:33] <nuxord> i can see
[02:33] <matthewjames> kk
[02:33] <jman8888> !partition
[02:33] <eyequeue> marloes, example, you can type /join ##windows
[02:33] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[02:34] <AustLaw> !nvidia
[02:34] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:34] <jediborger> jman8888 I see you
[02:34] <matthewf> how can i see whats been detected chipset etc wise by the live cd ?
[02:34] <jman8888> How can i make a new partition
[02:34] <eyequeue> matthewf, i would try "dmesg | less"
[02:34] <marloes> eyequeue: but then i get windows geeks haha?!!
[02:34] <iLikeSpoons> marloes, also, have you used irc before? at all? Want a link to a tutorial or something
[02:34] <iLikeSpoons> ?
[02:34] <jediborger> jman8888: I would install gparted
[02:34] <eyequeue> marloes, yeah, it's all techie stuff here on freenode
[02:34] <marloes> ilikespoons:never been here before
[02:35] <jediborger> very easy program to use
[02:35] <eyequeue> marloes, wait, there's still one option     /join #offtopic
[02:35] <jman8888> jediborger, apt cant find gparted
[02:35] <marloes> eyequeue: this is like a strange movie...feel like i entered well I don't know..a strange movie haha
[02:35] <boricua> nozorro: is not on linuxprinting yet its a faily new printer
[02:35] <marloes> eyequeue: but then i will be without you.....
[02:36] <eyequeue> marloes, we may be stranger than you even imagine .... BWAHAHA :-)
[02:36] <marloes> eyequeue; i could get lost
[02:36] <nozorro> boricua: do check it out. anyway, ubuntu's printer config offer similar models to yours, you could try thos similar drivers, eg PhotoSmart 3100. often the differences are very small
[02:36] <marloes> ......
[02:36] <boricua> nozorro: i am asking before i buy so  icant test it yet :-(
[02:36] <eyequeue> iLikeSpoons, is irchelp.org still around?
[02:36] <marloes> eyequeue; thats it i feel like i am stuck in the matrix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[02:36] <jediborger> jman 8888: goto add/remove programs and look under system tools and make sure to check unsupported
[02:37] <marloes> ilikespoons: am i in the matrix? LOL
[02:37] <silent_scream> i have a movie in .avi format.. i want to watch it with xine, but xine doesn't load the subtitles!! any idea? it should recognise the .srt right?
[02:37] <nozorro> boricua: ah i see ... well in that case you're better off asking in the ubuntu forums, because your question will 'stick' not scroll by like it is here
[02:37] <iLikeSpoons> I have no idea... never went there. There is a pretty nice tutorials online, though
[02:37] <jediborger> jman are you sure you spelled gparted right? I did a search and found it
[02:37] <nuxord> what Do i need to instal to make videos play in youtube :( i cant find anything on the subject!?
[02:37] <iLikeSpoons> marloes - you are connected to an Internet Relay Chat server
[02:37] <jediborger> under synaptic
[02:38] <marloes> ilikespoons; yeah this place rocks baby
[02:38] <lostinc> Any ideas on how to get a recoil joypad to work?
[02:38] <JoseStefan> nuxord, probably flash
[02:38] <marloes> eyequeue; ??
[02:38] <iLikeSpoons> marloes - take a look at this: http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/irctutorial.html
[02:39] <marloes> ilikespoons; too tired babe, have to sleep
[02:39] <nuxord> yeah..but it needs flash 9 is what i hear, but is there even a verion of it for linux?
[02:39] <iLikeSpoons> nuxord - nope. You need to run it from wine
[02:39] <eyequeue> marloes, also, there is a channel called #ubuntu-nl, for dutch
[02:39] <shut-> how come rpm's dont work
[02:39] <marloes> eyequeue:prefer the english, it's easier for me
[02:39] <gnomefreak> shut-: rpm = red hat package manager
[02:40] <marloes> eyequeue; how you know me dutchie?
[02:40] <JoseStefan> shut-, you should use deb whenever possible
[02:40] <eyequeue> nuxord, okay, there is something i just read about the other day, and have not tried personall\y
[02:40] <subnet> shut: you can use alien to convert your rpms to .deb files
[02:40] <gnomefreak> shut-: ubuntu isnt redhat :)
[02:40] <shut-> well how can i get music then
[02:40] <nuxord> o?
[02:40] <nozorro> shut-: ubuntu is not rpm-based
[02:40] <eyequeue> nuxord, a comandline script, in python ... should not need flash i would guess
[02:40] <nuxord> mhm
[02:40] <gnomefreak> music should not be in form of rpm or deb it should be its own .file
[02:40] <matthewf> ubuntu was locking up on me before.. lets see if a bios update has fixed it ...
[02:40] <eyequeue> nuxord, google for "youtube-dl.py"
[02:41] <nuxord> alright
[02:41] <eyequeue> nuxord, again, i haven't tried it, but it seems it should do what you want
[02:41] <nuxord> ok thanks
[02:41] <shut-> well i want a program to get music
[02:41] <silent_scream> is there any way in mplayer to make subtitles smaller?
[02:41] <gnomefreak> shut-: like? can you give an example?
[02:41] <nozorro> shut-: which one?
[02:41] <shut-> limewire
[02:41] <marloes> well I am saying goodbye to all you computer freaks, don't stay up too late you will end up with square eyes....;)
[02:41] <gnomefreak> !limewire
[02:41] <ubotu> limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[02:41] <subnet> shut: use frostwire
[02:41] <marloes> night night
[02:42] <iLikeSpoons> silent scream - get out a smaller font package and overwrite the subtitles font somewhere in ./mplayer
[02:42] <subnet> shut: lots better imo
[02:42] <shut-> ok
[02:42] <lekvar> Wow, reading BinaryDriverHowto/ATI, I'd almost get the impression that the legendarily bad ati linux drivers actually work, and feel no apprehension about purchasing a particular type of card ;)
[02:42] <eyequeue> nuxord, do you need help getting a pythin script to run, or is that okay ar your end?
[02:42] <shut-> but will it work
[02:42] <gnomefreak> shut-: yes
[02:42] <iLikeSpoons> shut: nicotine is also nice
[02:42] <JoseStefan> tell shut- about frostwire
[02:42] <matthewf> id use limewire for single songs.. and Bittorrent trackers for albums etc
[02:42] <nuxord> its ok, i can do it :)
[02:43] <eyequeue> nuxord, cool
[02:43] <subnet> shut: you can use automatix to get it
[02:43] <nozorro> shut-: it really should, but install Sun's Java environment to be sure
[02:43] <iLikeSpoons> shut: nicotine lets you connect to the soulseek network. Has irc-ish chat integrated and is plain awesome :D
[02:44] <matthewf> anyone else here ever used or know anyone with a Nforce4 Intel Ed box with Ubuntu on it ?
[02:45] <shut-> how
[02:45] <lekvar> matthewf: i've kinda noticed it takes a lot of fishing around to find compat info on high game performance hardware like that
[02:46] <iLikeSpoons> shut: You can install sun java from synaptic in dapper
[02:46] <subnet> matthewf: ubuntu works great on nforce3 board, don't know what the difference is in the nforce3 and 4 though
[02:46] <ikaruga> is there a bug with the network applet? When I switch DHCP off & use the same settings as in Windowz, it does not work
[02:46] <cafuego> subnet: 1
[02:46] <myleftfoot> hi all, can anyone help me with my x. gdm wont start after I boot. I did the fix mentioned online and still doesn't start
[02:46] <nuxord> OK NOW i need help
[02:46] <matthewf> lekvar: its not for a gameing box, actuly its a box of spare parts that im trying to install linux on so i can prehaps find a use for all these spare bits
[02:46] <subnet> cafuego: lol nice
[02:47] <cafuego> As of 2.6.12 or somesuch nforce4 also works under Linux.
[02:47] <lekvar> matthewf: heck i'd just try it out and see what happens then
[02:47] <nuxord> i compiled it with Scite, and saved the file on my desktop
[02:47] <nuxord> but how do i run it =\
[02:47] <cafuego> So you should be fine with Dapper.
[02:47] <nuxord> sorry, i am still used to windows
[02:47] <Remy> hey guys, is there an easy place to view the environment variables?
[02:47] <lekvar> matthewf: i'm trying to spec out something new, but am edgey about buying recent hardware only to find it's marginally functional under leenooks
[02:48] <nozorro> shut-: or just use Add/Remove ... from the main menu, which is easier
[02:48] <Remy> I'm trying to set $CLASSPATH, but if I export the values to it in one terminal window, it isn't saved for any others...
[02:48] <ikaruga> hey this is wierd.... gaim works but Firefox says server can't be found (after restarting the network connection)
[02:48] <matthewf> cafuego: well youd think it would work but i installed ubunu yesterday, live cd worked fine, install was fine but after 10 mins of booting into the HD install the system would lock up hard
[02:48] <AustLaw`> how do you start GDM or the x-server?
[02:48] <dr_willis> Remy,  hmm.. thats HOW it works. :P
[02:48] <matthewf> cafuego: have installed windoze on the system and ran memtest and all is stable however
[02:49] <dr_willis> Remy,  you either export it in your .bash_profile or .bashrc for it to affect all new created shells.
[02:49] <ardchoille> How do I get the debian menus in my gnome menus? I installed menu and menu-xdg, but the command "update menus" returns the command not found.
[02:49] <cafuego> matthewf: Does it at all have a wifi card?
[02:49] <Remy> ahk
[02:49] <dr_willis> Remy,  exports from one shell do not affect others shells just the childen processes of that shell
[02:49] <Remy> thank
[02:49] <Remy> s
[02:49] <matthewf> cafuego: i update bios in windows so hopefully this time things should work
[02:49] <Xenguy> Remy: set |less
[02:50] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: use alacarte
[02:50] <lgc_> eyequeue, nozorro, I'm back.
[02:50] <dr_willis> Remy,  :P a few bash tutorials/guides - are worth reading  when ya grab the time.  :)  that advance bash scripting guide is a must read/bookmark/print out and wallpaper in the bathroom. :)
[02:50] <AustLaw`> anyone using a k7 kernal with nvidia drivers?
[02:50] <nuxord> i am slighly confused with Scite, if i have compiled my program, how can i see the output???
[02:50] <nuxord> i dont see a 'run button'
[02:50] <nozorro> lgc_ any news?
[02:50] <ikaruga> h
[02:50] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: That's a tremendous amoutn of work when the debian menus can be added with a single command
[02:50] <lekvar> speaking of video config, I've been trying out PPC ubuntu on an old mac mini and can't get DVI working right
[02:50] <lgc_> nozorro, yes, the kid had his shower and is having dinner...
[02:51] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: sometimes as you are seeing they cant also killall gnome-panel
[02:51] <eyequeue> lgc_, :)
[02:51] <AustLaw> !nvidia
[02:51] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:51] <lgc_> nozorro, (I better get serious before nalioth kicks me out)
[02:51] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: and you dont need menu-xdg
[02:51] <nozorro> lgc_:  oh, same thing here but hours ago :-)
[02:51] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: I don't? Ok.
[02:51] <matthewjames> what file format do thmes need to be to install?
[02:51] <gnomefreak> nope
[02:51] <lgc_> nozorro, where are you?
[02:51] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: shouldnt
[02:52] <gnomefreak> i dont have it
[02:52] <matthewf> ok booting back into ubuntu HD install... lets see if things work for longer then 10 mins this time heh
[02:52] <nozorro> lgc_: Berlin
[02:52] <gnomefreak> my menu works fine with debian sub menu
[02:52] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: How did you get the debian menus?
[02:52] <lgc_> "Ich bin ein Berliner!"
[02:52] <iLikeSpoons> ikaruga, firefox still not working?
[02:52] <matthewjames> what file format do thmes need to be to install?
[02:52] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: i just told you use alacarte to add it than killall gnome-panel (btw if your on edgy give up now)
[02:52] <nozorro> lgc_: well said
[02:52] <dr_willis> matthewjames,  thers so many different theme-things out its scary. :P    check /usr/share/themes      normally you uncompress them there.
[02:53] <eyequeue> i am a jelly donut -- jfk
[02:53] <lgc_> nozorro, Ich will ein Berliner, lieber.

[02:53] <nozorro> eyequeue: lol
[02:53] <matthewjames> k
[02:53] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: Use alacarte? You mean add each menu item? That's a lot of work. The debian menu in alacarte is empty and killall gnomepanel didn't help.
[02:53] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: no alacarte has a box for your debina sub menu
[02:53] <eyequeue> nozorro, at least someone recognized the reference
[02:53] <nozorro> lgc_: *einen' * Berliner -- but let's stop it now :-|
[02:54] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: I'm telling you it's empty
[02:54] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: open alacarte debian stares at you
[02:54] <lgc_> nozorro, genau. Danke.
[02:54] <rahsputin> hi! is there a way to open a .iso to explore
[02:54] <eyequeue> rahsputin, perhaps you want to mount it?
[02:54] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: than you dont have menu installed properly or you are on edgy
[02:54] <paradizelost> hey all, not really an ubuntu question, but i've forgotten my IRC password, anyone know how to get hold of someone or anything to re-set it?
[02:54] <iLikeSpoons> nozorro, would it be *eine* if said by a girl?
[02:54] <eyequeue> !iso
[02:54] <ubotu> To mount an .iso image: sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint - bin/cue can be converted to iso with bchunk  .iso images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com Always verify the .iso before burning, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[02:54] <paradizelost> and i don't know where i should be asking this?
[02:54] <lgc_> nozorro, eyequeue, do I have to restart the whole thing again or just gdm?
[02:54] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: Using Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS Dapper.
[02:55] <eyequeue> lgc_, probably just gdm, but remind me
[02:55] <rahsputin> :D
[02:55] <nozorro> lgc_: log out and select other lang from gdm menu
[02:55] <Noumaan> How do I set my network proxy if I am using epiphany on xubuntu?
[02:55] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: after installing menu you updateed the menus? without restarting panels first?
[02:55] <nozorro> lgc_ provided you have the packages installed of course
[02:55] <eyequeue> rahsputin,  sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint
[02:55] <nozorro> lgc_: supported langs will appear in gdm menu
[02:55] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: How do I update the menus?
[02:56] <eyequeue> ardchoille, log out and in
[02:56] <gnomefreak> ardchoille: sudo update-menus and the debian menu dont like eachother im asking you if you did this
[02:56] <eyequeue> ardchoille, or killall gnome-panel
[02:56] <gnomefreak> update-menu clears out the menu.xdg file
[02:56] <nuxord> how can i use Visual Basic, with all its options in ubuntu?
[02:56] <eyequeue> nuxord, is that a linux app?
[02:56] <gnomefreak> i think its menu.menu.xdg or something like that
[02:56] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: ok, that's what I was doing wrong.. I was doing sudo update menus
[02:57] <rahsputin> such as mntpoint /home/mountpoint
[02:57] <rahsputin> ?
[02:57] <dr_willis> nuxord,  good luck there.. i dont know if wine can even handle that.
[02:57] <ardchoille> gnomefreak: Thank you for the help :)
[02:57] <eyequeue> rahsputin, sure, anywhere you have access to
[02:57] <dr_willis> nuxord,  theres a few VB wanna be type program/ides out i hear.
[02:57] <nuxord> :( but visual basic is so simple and beautigul
[02:57] <shut-> how can i get it
[02:57] <nuxord> f
[02:57] <shut-> ?
[02:57] <rahsputin> KooL
[02:57] <nuxord> any names?
[02:57] <rahsputin> :)
[02:57] <AustLaw`> is there a way to scrollup in a shell?
[02:57] <lgc_> nozorro, I don't want anything else than the Spanish set. It encompasses the English one, if I'm right.
[02:57] <eyequeue> rahsputin, though sudo will hve access anywhere of course
[02:57] <gnomefreak> shut-: get what?
[02:57] <shut-> java
[02:57] <kyozabe> lostworld-lmao.ytmnd.com <-- "Additional plugins are required to display all media on this page." No sound. :(
[02:58] <gnomefreak> !java > shut-
[02:58] <cliffd> can anyone tell me what this means "Package gconf-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path." I have gconf and gconf2 installed
[02:58] <gnomefreak> shut-: read your pm
[02:58] <kyozabe> google didn't help
[02:58] <eyequeue> rahsputin, /home/rahsputin/mountpoint though
[02:59] <nuxord> ok i am having tourble with Scite, if i want to create a stand alone program, how can i do it? where do i click to make it happen?
[02:59] <Noumaan> How do I set my network proxy if I am using epiphany on xubuntu?
[02:59] <nozorro> shut-: but we told you alreday, twice :-)
[02:59] <nozorro> lgc_: hold on a second pls
[03:00] <matthewf> !nvidia
[03:00] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:00] <nozorro> lgc_: so did you install the Spanish lang packages?
[03:00] <nuxord> ok i am having tourble with Scite, if i want to create a stand alone program, how can i do it? where do i click to make it happen?
[03:00] <matthewjames> hey, i am having problems finding some kool themes, can someone help me?
[03:00] <cheesy1> nuxord, try gambas. not a clone but close enough.
[03:00] <rofl0r> is there a way to install rpm programs in ubuntu ?
[03:01] <nozorro> rofl0r: package alien
[03:01] <eyequeue> rofl0r, not advised, use a deb, but yes
[03:01] <rofl0r> lazarus is not available as .deb
[03:01] <eyequeue> rofl0r, sudo apt-get install alien, and use it to make a deb
[03:01] <nuxord> i am mostly looking for somethign to create my stand alone java, c, and c++ apps, gambas will do that
[03:01] <nuxord> ?
[03:01] <iLikeSpoons> rofl0r, why not compile it from source?
[03:01] <nozorro> rofl0r: handle with care
[03:02] <rofl0r> it needs fpc
[03:02] <lgc_> nozorro, I suppose I did, somehow, during the orig. install (since all the menus are in Spanish). How can I check if it's complete?
[03:02] <eyequeue> rofl0r, sudo dpkg -i lazarus*.deb, after
[03:02] <rofl0r> ok...gonna try that, thanks
[03:02] <phenol> hello
[03:02] <matthewjames> hey, i am having problems finding some kool themes, can someone help me?
[03:03] <nozorro> lgc_: again, pls open System > Administration > Language Support
[03:03] <phenol> how do i save my settings for a certain application (i.e. i want to save 50% opacity and view in all viewports for gaim) and everytime i set it, it unsets when i reboot/relogin
[03:03] <nozorro> lgc_: then tell me whether Spanish and English are checked (fully checked that is)
[03:04] <anon32> wtf... the base ubuntu install is completely non-functional!
[03:05] <[jb] > how do i remove a directorie and all its subdirectories?
[03:05] <anon32> jb: rm?
[03:05] <haasteem> hi, i am having trouble mounting my floppy drive... when i do 'mount' it says it is already mounted or busy, and when i do 'umount' it says that it is not mounted... does anyone know what might be the problem?
[03:05] <anon32> rm -fr?
[03:05] <matthewjames> hello, everytime i try install a theme, it says invalid format
[03:05] <Xenguy> anon32: whoops :-)
[03:05] <cheesy1> nuxord, no gambas won't do for that. As far as I know Gambas tries to mimic Visual Basic only.
[03:05] <eyequeue> [jb] , sudo rm -rf /incriminating/evidence
[03:05] <anon32> WTF is the deal with the media player? no mp3, mpeg-4, or css?
[03:05] <[jb] > it worked ... thanks
[03:05] <eyequeue> !mp3 > anon32
[03:06] <Xenguy> anon32: re-install if there's no more brilliant idea ?
[03:06] <nozorro> i!codecs
[03:06] <iLikeSpoons> anon, you need to install support for all restricted formats
[03:06] <matthewjames> hello, everytime i try install a theme, it says invalid format, or failed, any ideas?
[03:06] <lgc_> nozorro, "nofuchs", they are. I was just wondering if that entails all what there is to install.
[03:06] <nozorro> !codecs
[03:06] <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
[03:06] <Lard-O-Lad> what new features can be expected in Edgy?
[03:06] <anon32> just commenting...
[03:06] <eyequeue> [jb] , you don't need the sudo if you own it, btw, in the future
[03:06] <Xenguy> Lard-O-Lad: there's gotta be list somewhere
[03:06] <nuxord> cheesyl, do you know any program that will create stand alone apps for java, c and c++ ? they dont have to be the same program
[03:06] <phenol> how do i save my settings for a certain application (i.e. i want to save 50% opacity and view in all viewports for gaim) and everytime i set it, it unsets when i reboot/relogin
[03:06] <anon32> but my actual issue is that ubuntu doesn't support my modem
[03:06] <drew32> hey all
[03:06] <iLikeSpoons> anon, there are reasons for that. Read the help pages.
[03:06] <Xenguy> Lard-O-Lad: change log?
[03:06] <[jb] > eyequeue, ;)
[03:06] <Lard-O-Lad> i tried to google it couldnt find one
[03:07] <eyequeue> phenol, gaim should save automatically, i thought
[03:07] <drew32> ive got a bit of a problem, anyone know anything about forwarding ports?
[03:07] <matthewjames> hello, everytime i try install a theme, it says invalid format, or failed, any ideas?
[03:07] <anon32> ilikespoons: and I guess there's a reason xpdf isn't included?
[03:07] <nozorro> lgc_: well ok, but now let's get serious, i'm off in 15 minutes or so
[03:07] <anon32> drew32: try portforward.com
[03:07] <eyequeue> phenol, some apps, it's file > save
[03:07] <phenol> eyequeue, i thought the same. apparently not
[03:07] <eyequeue> phenol, some apps, it's under prefences, there's an apply and a save button
[03:07] <vorbote> anon32, linux distros with high visibility must watch their backs. No one want to be sued into oblivion (a customaru practice in the US of A).
[03:07] <iLikeSpoons> anon, there is something to look at pdfs in the base package. evince, I think
[03:07] <phenol> tried that
[03:07] <matthewjames> anyone, i try install a theme, it says invalid format, or failed, any ideas?
[03:07] <eyequeue> phenol, you're not on the livecd are you?
[03:07] <lgc_> nozorro, are you a "nozorro" or a "nozorra"?
[03:08] <phenol> no way
[03:08] <Lard-O-Lad> !repeat
[03:08] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:08] <anon32> anyway, ubuntu fails to detect my modem... it's a generic intel modem
[03:08] <anon32> any ideas?
[03:08] <haasteem> i am having trouble mounting my floppy drive... when i do 'mount' it says it is already mounted or busy, and when i do 'umount' it says that it is not mounted... does anyone know what might be the problem?
[03:08] <drew32> well, maybe thats not i want, lemme tell you the story.  My friend is at college and wants to play the game diablo 2, yet his college blocks port 6112.  i want to allow him to connect to my linux server on port 4 and have my linux server transfer all those packets from port 4 to port 6112.  how would i go about doing that?
[03:08] <nozorro> lgc_: i have no sex whatsoever :-) seriously if you need help, let's walk through the steps, or else ...
[03:08] <nuxord> it hates you, you must beat it into submission until it loves you :D
[03:08] <cheesy1> nuxord, if you are looking for an IDE then may i suggest you try eclipse. There are lot's of other out there as well and usually which one is best is a personal preference.
[03:08] <matthewjames> anyone, i try install a theme, it says invalid format, or failed, any ideas?
[03:08] <nuxord> ok thanks
[03:08] <eyequeue> anon32, are you sure it's not a winmodem?
[03:09] <phenol> i have a dual monitor setup and everytime i switch workspaces, gaim gets left behind in the previous workspace
[03:09] <anon32> eyequeue: damn it! that might be it...
[03:09] <anon32> any solutions for that problem?
[03:09] <phenol> i select view in all viewport settings and it works
[03:09] <phenol> i reboot and its back to not being in all viewports
[03:09] <lgc_> nozorro, funny case, yours... I think I'm about ready when I restart gdm. Otherwise, you'll hear from me...
[03:09] <eyequeue> anon32, i guess there's winprinters now too :(  watch the bot for a url to check ...
[03:09] <eyequeue> !hardware
[03:09] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:10] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewjames: 1 in 10 of those themes will not work
[03:10] <eyequeue> anon32, see what that has to say, maybe there's a solution
[03:10] <drew32> anyone got any ideas about my problem?
[03:10] <nuxord> when the synaptic package manager downlaods the installation files does it delet them after installation is complete?
[03:10] <matthewjames> ok
[03:10] <eyequeue> anon32, pne more thought, again watch the bot
[03:10] <Warbo> nuxord: No. Run "sudo apt-get clean" to do that
[03:10] <eyequeue> !winmodem
[03:10] <matthewjames> where can i find some reliable ones?
[03:10] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[03:10] <nuxord> ok thanks
[03:11] <anon32> eyequeue: what section would a modem be under?
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewjames: even at gonme-look.org there are many that will not work on all systems
[03:11] <matthewjames> ok, ty
[03:11] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[03:11] <Xenguy> anon32: modems are cheap man :-)
[03:11] <eyequeue> anon32, grankly, i don't recall the page, see if you can "/" in firefox to search for the string?
[03:11] <anon32> mm... can't buy any hardware as I don't own this PC
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> anon32: buy an external that you can take with you

[03:13] <anon32> jack_sparrow: like me?
[03:13] <eyequeue> phenol, it used all my cpu and i removed it
[03:13] <anon32> ubuntu wouldn't happen to come with the GCC would it?
[03:13] <Jack_Sparrow> No OS wars... Use what you want..
[03:14] <anon32> jack_sparrow: can't switch til I get my modem working
[03:14] <phenol> i cant get my desklets to dock. half of them wont dock and appear in random places when i login
[03:14] <jamescarr> I use mac osx instead of linux
[03:14] <eyequeue> anon32, yes ... sudo apt-get build-essential, and get all the stuff you would want with it, all at once
[03:14] <iLikeSpoons> anon, I think it does, but I'm not sure. I have it
[03:14] <jamescarr> cuz the linux has copyrite violations in it
[03:14] <shut-> how come i get E: Couldn't find package sun
[03:14] <shut-> ?
[03:14] <philip> I'm looking for a decent news reader. Which app should I try?
[03:14] <anon32> eyequeue: um, to use apt-get don't I need a working internet connection?
[03:14] <jamescarr> linux is a ripoff of SCO Unix
[03:14] <Jack_Sparrow> anon32: And you dont have a real modem, you have a port that emulates a modem..in WIndows.
[03:14] <phenol> philip, pan
[03:14] <Xenguy> philip: pan?
[03:15] <philip> ok thanks guys :)
[03:15] <anon32> jack_sparrow :aw man...
[03:15] <eyequeue> anon32, good point ... perhaps the servercd has it, but i don't believe the standard desktop install comes with it
[03:15] <haasteem> i am having trouble mounting my floppy drive... when i do 'mount' it says it is already mounted or busy, and when i do 'umount' it says that it is not mounted... does anyone know what might be the problem?
[03:15] <iLikeSpoons> shut: what are you trying to install? I had a problem with javadocs when I tried installing that package
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> anon32: You can buy a driver or live with the free driver with limited speed
[03:15] <nozorro> shut-: open Add/Remove from the main menu and check the two checkboxes, then type 'Sun' into the search box.
[03:15] <eyequeue> anon32, laptop?
[03:15] <shut-> ok
[03:15] <anon32> jack_sparrow: ???
[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[03:16] <anon32> hmm, it appears that my modem is a hardware one...
[03:16] <hoehaver> does anyone know of a program that will allow me to receave video from a cam using yahoo?

[03:17] <afaik> any 24 fans here?
[03:17] <cheesy1> !fixres
[03:17] <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
[03:17] <Warbo> !offtopic > afaik
[03:17] <nozorro> mattewf: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf provided your hardware supports it. scroll down in the file where the resolutions are listed
[03:17] <afaik> Warbo, season 6 trailer was leaked
[03:17] <eyequeue> afaik, this is #ubuntu, try #offtopic
[03:18] <Xenguy> .oO(they only come out at night...)
[03:18] <afaik> eyequeue, hold on ,I'll find it for you... let me get the link
[03:18] <eyequeue> Xenguy, lol, sadly it's always night somewhere
[03:18] <anon32> huh, found a forum thread... maybe it'll help... though that seems unlikely
[03:18] <Jack_Sparrow> anon32: INtel
[03:18] <nozorro> matthewf: ... and add your onw res. save and restart gdm
[03:18] <eyequeue> afaik, i'm not into sports, #offtopic might be
[03:18] <Jack_Sparrow> anon32: Is this a lappy?
[03:18] <Xenguy> eyequeue: not always sad tho - I like the night too
[03:19] <anon32> jack_sparrow: huh?
[03:19] <Jack_Sparrow> or desktop
[03:19] <hoehaver> DOES anyone have knowledge of a program that will allow me to view a persons cam if they are using yahoo????
[03:19] <anon32> desktop
[03:19] <phenol> so noone knows how to save window settings?
[03:19] <anon32> hoehaver: try #offtopic
[03:19] <Jack_Sparrow> anon32: HAve you done lspci in terminal
[03:19] <Warbo> phenol: What like?
[03:19] <rayna> hi all, i am running an ubuntu-server under vmware server (latest vers) and it appears that the ubuntu server continuously goes to sleep. the clock has lost 25 mins over about 4 weeks and quite often the machine is unresponsive, however once you attempt to make it do something (like ssh, or dns) it will wake up after about 20 seconds. Any ideas?
[03:19] <hoehaver> I will.
[03:19] <anon32> jack_sparrow: no... and I'd have to reboot to try that
[03:19] <anon32> :-\
[03:19] <jman8888> How do i use gparted?
[03:20] <Warbo> jman8888: For what?
[03:20] <afaik> eyequeue, 24 isn't a sport, it's a show
[03:20] <DrBanzai> Anybody here able to help me out with ISPConfig?
[03:20] <jman8888> Warbo, For making a 35gig partition from my 70 gig partion.

[03:20] <phenol> warbo, i
[03:20] <gnomefreak> eyequeue: ?
[03:20] <afaik> pretty impressive ;)
[03:20] <phenol> warbo, i
[03:21] <eyequeue> afaik, you said "fan" but, again, this is #ubuntu and perhaps #offtopic has someone that would be into that
[03:21] <Warbo> jman8888: Easy. Open it up, making sure that the partition isn't mounted, select it, right click, resize/move, fiddle it around a bit, apply, exit
[03:21] <Xenguy> rayna: reduce the complexity of the setup and try some more tests?
[03:21] <anon32> ah wait know, it's a winmodem... oh well
[03:22] <hoehaver> anon32   /join #offtopic does not exist
[03:22] <phenol> warbo, i'm trying to save the display settings of my gaim (view in all viewports and change the opacity to 50%) but it resets everytime i reboot as if gaim doesnt save the settings
[03:22] <anon32> hoehaver: *duh*?
[03:22] <jman8888> Wait how do i do it with the hard drive im using?
[03:22] <eyequeue> anon32, there are some cheapish "real" modems out there these days, pick one from the !hardare page before you shop
[03:22] <hoehaver> duh?
[03:22] <Warbo> phenol: E16.8 might be able to do that
[03:22] <anon32> mmm...
[03:22] <jman8888> (I have ubuntu on it but i want to dual boot with another linux)
[03:22] <hoehaver> why would you tell me to go there then
[03:22] <hoehaver> duhh!
[03:22] <Warbo> phenol: But obviously that would involve changing your WIndow Manager
[03:22] <ocelot_> Please help, i'm trying to install ndiswrapper on 6.06 and I get Can't find kernel build files in /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/build;
[03:22] <ocelot_> give the path to kernel build directory with KBUILD=<path> argument to make
[03:23] <phenol> damn
[03:23] <iLikeSpoons> hoehaver, that can't actually happen. if you /join a non-existant channel, you will make one
[03:23] <phenol> not the answer i was looking for lol
[03:23] <anon32> eyequeue: even if I got a real modem, the time it would take to update and fetch all the apps and upgrades I need makes me reconsider whether or not switching to ubuntu is such a great idea
[03:23] <hoehaver> (20:20:58) ChanServ: (notice) [##unavailable]  You've tried to join an unavailable channel.

[03:23] <hoehaver> sorry for pasting
[03:23] <hoehaver> that's what I got when I tried to jhoin it.
[03:23] <Warbo> jman8888: The hard drive doesn't matter, only the partition. If the partition is not currently mounted then you can mess around with it in GParted
[03:23] <iLikeSpoons> anon, that's true. Ubuntu might not be for you...
[03:24] <phenol> anon32, stop being cheap and get dsl man
[03:24] <anon32> phenol: again, I don't own this computer...

[03:24] <phenol> i cant use any computer non-broadbanded
[03:24] <jman8888> But it is mounted.(I have ubuntu on it and im using it) how do i make a partition?
[03:24] <phenol> i refuse to use it
[03:24] <ramon> anyone knows how to run alsaconf?
[03:24] <smax> hi gang
[03:24] <afaik> my pm from Ubugtu has about 10 people for "... wants you to know..."
[03:24] <anon32> hey, I found the driver for it :-)
[03:24] <Jack_Sparrow> ramon: from a terminal
[03:25] <ramon> yeah
[03:25] <ramon> but it says unknown command
[03:25] <eyequeue> lgc_, no, mine died when i was still a commandline guy
[03:25] <Warbo> jman8888: If it is being used then you can use an Ubuntu LiveCD to shrink it, since the Live CD doesn't need the hard drive to be mounted
[03:25] <gnomefreak> afaik: are you here for support or giving support? i havent seen you state anything support related
[03:25] <phenol> ok.. anyone got treo 650 to sync via bluetooth. moreover, can anyone lead me to a treo 650 bluetooth howto

[03:25] <tech13> Recently installed Kubuntu, just started using it, have used debian+gnome for a few years.  I have Ogg files that ogg123 will play, but amaroK won't, what should I check?
[03:25] <afaik> gnomefreak, I dont even use ubuntu
[03:25] <Warbo> jman8888: If you don't have an Ubuntu CD then the GParted Live CD is a much smaller download
[03:25] <anon32> next step.... figure out how to safely resize a half-used NTFS partition...
[03:25] <lgc_> eyequeue, seems a lot of water has gone under the bridge since then...
[03:25] <jman8888> K' ill try it.
[03:25] <gnomefreak> afaik: than i suggest you move to #ubuntu-offtopic for normal chat
[03:26] <anon32> #wikipedia is offtopic a lot too
[03:26] <eyequeue> lgc_, yeah, pluscker was a neat app on it, and in linux, back then
[03:26] <anon32> ah man... the drivers page got me 404ed...
[03:26] <Warbo> anon32: Surely ANYTHING is on-topic for Wikipedia :)

[03:28] <ocelot_> Please help, i'm trying to install ndiswrapper on 6.06 and I get the error:  Can't find kernel build files in /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/build; ----what should I do?
[03:28] <hoehaver> is gaim v v out yet?
[03:29] <hoehaver> or is it ever coming out...
[03:29] <Larynx> what is module-assistant?
[03:29] <philipsmith> Yo. Amarok and Banshee just flat stopped working. No noise no music no nothin'. Whassu with this? How do I fix it?
[03:29] <Warbo> Does anyone know what packages I might need when configuring some source code says "Qt (>= Qt 3.1 (20021021)) (headers and libraries) not found"? I grepped a list of available packages down to one which contain "qt" and "dev", in stlled them all (~40MB) but I STILL get that message
[03:29] <anon32> so, how large is the GCC?
[03:29] <dr_willis> !info gcc
[03:29] <ubotu> gcc: The GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.0.3-1 (dapper), package size 4 kB, installed size 64 kB
[03:29] <dr_willis> but all the libs and other fles it uses.. are bigger. :P
[03:29] <Warbo> Larynx: It is a wizard-like program for compiling and installing some kernel modules
[03:29] <anon32> um.... the GCC is not 64K...
[03:30] <nozorro> ocelot_: the 'build' subdirectory seems out of place, i.e. somehow the installation got it wrong. you did install from source, didn't you
[03:30] <dr_willis> tell the bot. :P
[03:30] <Larynx> Warbo: do i have to dl it?
[03:30] <Zambezi> I get errormessages extracting tar.gz. Which is the right command? (The on Easyubuntu doen't work).
[03:30] <tech13> philipsmith, just had the same thing start yesterday, thought it was that I was playing ogg files rather then mp3 streams,  check setting and make sure an engine is set.
[03:30] <smwon> I have a question...  what is the superuser?
[03:30] <anon32> when I tried installing cygwin... I remember GCC being over 30M...
[03:30] <Warbo> Larynx: It is in UBinverse, and therefore not in a default Ubuntu installation
[03:30] <dr_willis> smwon,  another name for 'root' i guess.
[03:30] <ocelot_> nozorro: yes I did
[03:30] <eyequeue> smwon, root
[03:30] <Warbo> !root > smwon
[03:30] <eyequeue> !root > smwon
[03:30] <Larynx> Warbo: tho i use Kubuntu
[03:30] <nozorro> ocelot_: which was the installation directory you specified?
[03:30] <Larynx> but i dunno
[03:30] <eyequeue> lol Warbo
[03:30] <Larynx> :/
[03:31] <anon32> hmm.... is ubuntu based on debian?
[03:31] <Warbo> Larynx: Ed/K/X/Ubuntu all use the "main" repository, so none come with any Universe packages
[03:31] <philipsmith> tech13: Thanks for your reply, homeboy. What does "check setting and make sure an engine is set." does this have something to do with my honda?
[03:31] <Larynx> Warbo: oh crap. :<
[03:31] <dr_willis> anon32,  its a fork.  Discussed in detail at the ubuntu homepage.
[03:31] <nozorro> anon32: could we please have less noise on this channel. it's scrolling fast enough as is
[03:31] <Warbo> Larynx: What driver are you after?
[03:32] <dr_willis> nozorro,  i wonder if this is how i learned to read so fast.
[03:32] <tech13> philipsmith, amoroK -> settings -> configure amorok -> engine
[03:32] <smwon> Well I need to self install dpkg because I lost power but now it says superuser has top do it
[03:32] <Larynx> Warbo: uhm.. i dunno really.. im trying to install some drivers to my dial-up modem, and im just following the instructions on the supportpage ^^
[03:32] <smwon> toi
[03:32] <haasteem> i am having trouble mounting my floppy drive... when i do 'mount' it says it is already mounted or busy, and when i do 'umount' it says that it is not mounted... does anyone know what might be the problem?
[03:33] <eyequeue> smwon, you lost dpkg?! and recovered manually?  congrats, you're a guru :)
[03:33] <alex222> hey i have two HD iconson my deskop, i cant access them though!
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: What modem do you have
[03:33] <smwon> no I didn't recover it
[03:33] <anon32> um, question, what's root's default password?
[03:33] <DBO> !root
[03:33] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:33] <smwon> says I need tio use superuser
[03:33] <raptros-v76> !sudo
[03:33] <alex222> how can i give myself permissions to see the TWO Hardrives i have mounted??
[03:33] <anon32> that's nice, I want to log in *as* root
[03:33] <Warbo> Larynx: OK. Personally I have experience with Softlink and Sagem modems, if it is one of them
[03:33] <ramon> !past
[03:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about past - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:33] <Zambezi> Extracting tar.gz file? Can't find the command.
[03:33] <ramon> !paste
[03:33] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[03:33] <eyequeue> smwon, booting to recovery mode means you run as root there btw .... we don't typically do that in ubuntu, we use sudo
[03:34] <BigToe> Sound doesn't work in Flash Player on Firefox, how can I make it work?
[03:34] <Warbo> alex222: Wrong way around. How do you set the drives to be writable by you? (usually add the option "-o uid=your-username" to the mount line)
[03:34] <eyequeue> anon32, please read the url the bot gave you, we won't tell you how to subvert security, but you can read it yourself
[03:34] <anon32> :-\ how do I unlock root?
[03:35] <Warbo> "tar -xf filename.tar.gz" will extract tar, tar,gz and tar,bz2
[03:35] <eyequeue> anon32, see what i just said please
[03:35] <BHSPitMonkey> BigToe, try http://www.macewan.org/2006/06/01/howto-firefox-flash-video-sound-on-ubuntu-linux-dapper/
[03:35] <Xenguy> !root > anon32
[03:35] <anon32> eyequeue: I read it
[03:35] <BigToe> thanks BHSPitLappy
[03:35] <anon32> I still want to know how to log in as root
[03:35] <eyequeue> anon32, thank you (we're picky about that in here)
[03:35] <nozorro> anon32: and it's not locked if you've never set it up (and locked it after that)
[03:35] <BHSPitMonkey> eyequeue, obviously you didn't
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> anon32: It can be done but we dont offer that advice
[03:35] <eyequeue> anon32, the url tells you, as i said
[03:36] <alex222> Warbo they're already moiunted
[03:36] <anon32> ...
[03:36] <Xenguy> hello?
[03:36] <raptros-v76> if we tell you, the CIA will kill us
[03:36] <BHSPitMonkey> anon32, is "sudo -i" not good enough for you?
[03:36] <eyequeue> BHSPitMonkey, didn't what?
[03:36] <cheesy1> anon32, sudo su -
[03:36] <Warbo> alex222: Then add another option, "-o remount" :)
[03:36] <BHSPitMonkey> eyequeue, sorry, I meant anon32
[03:36] <anon32> bhspitmoneky: I'd like to know... just in case I ever have to
[03:36] <Larynx> Warbo: uhm.. i dunno really.. ^^ dont think i quite understand what scanmodem tells me
[03:36] <anon32> cheesy1: thank you... if that works
[03:36] <eyequeue> BHSPitMonkey, heh, agreed btw
[03:36] <BHSPitMonkey> anon32, please read the page you were given, you did NOT read it.
[03:37] <anon32> um.... yes I did
[03:37] <BHSPitMonkey> or, if there was some part of it you had trouble understanding, say so.
[03:37] <BHSPitMonkey> !root > BHSPitMonkey
[03:37] <anon32> found it :-)
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: What modem do you have.. or did I miss your post about it
[03:37] <anon32> err, does root start with a default password?
[03:37] <drew32> anyone know anything about ssh tunneling?
[03:37] <Hexidigital_> read further
[03:37] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: i dont know. some kind of softmodem
[03:37] <drew32> that could help me out with a problem
[03:37] <Hexidigital_> drew32::  kinda
[03:38] <philipsmith> tech13: Ok. I've got Amarok open. Where is settings?
[03:38] <drew32> hex: can i pm you?
[03:38] <Hexidigital_> drew32::  sure
[03:38] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: alltho kubuntu cant find it
[03:38] <BHSPitMonkey> anon32, no.
[03:38] <eyequeue> anon32, no, but that page ... sigh ... what you do after reading is up to you, okay?
[03:38] <Zambezi> Warbo, tar -xf conky-1.4.2.tar.gz -> tar: This does not look like a tar archive // tar: Skipping to next header // tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers // tar: Read 3474 bytes from conky-1.4.2.tar.gz // tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[03:38] <stiv2k> is there any way i can convert from .daa to .ISO format?
[03:38] <anon32> ok...
[03:38] <smwon> thanks
[03:39] <Warbo> Zambezi: That's weird. Try "tar -xzf filename.tar.gz" which tells tar to use gzip explicitly, but it normally works that out by itself
[03:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx:  WInmodems are not well supported, there are drivers available for a fee, but they are almost as much as a real modem
[03:39] <Hexidigital_> drew32::  just /j #hexidigital
[03:39] <Warbo> Jack_Sparrow: I only know of Connexant who charge for drivers
[03:39] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> Where is edgy eft knot 2? Today is Aug. 31!
[03:40] <mortal5> what is a good value for swappiness, for, say a machine with 265mb of ram?
[03:40] <eyequeue> XxXBrAnDoNXxX, #ubuntu+1 may know, but i'd wait until business hours uk time, heh
[03:40] <matthewf> whats the command for the nvidia xgl control panel again ?
[03:40] <Warbo> mortal5: I would say 512MB
[03:40] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: i thought i was compiling drivers for my modem o.O
[03:40] <Larynx> omg
[03:40] <eyequeue> XxXBrAnDoNXxX, and thanks, i'll want that when it's out, heheheh
[03:40] <iLikeSpoons> aaaand that was my radeon at work
[03:40] <DrBanzai> Anybody here able to help me out with ISPConfig?
[03:41] <eyequeue> matthewf, #ubuntu-xgl would know
[03:41] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> eyequeue: lol didnt think about different time zones!@
[03:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: You are still better off spending $25 and getting a hardware modem
[03:41] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: thats ugly..
[03:41] <Larynx> ^^
[03:41] <Zambezi> Warbo, tar -xzf conky-1.4.2.tar.gz -> gzip: stdin: not in gzip format // tar: Child returned status 1 // tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[03:41] <eyequeue> XxXBrAnDoNXxX, that's unofficial, i've just found it seems to be when it happens, myself i like midnight utc, lol
[03:42] <Warbo> Zambezi: That makes a little more sense, because it seems your file is corrupt
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Ugly is a phone jack pretending to be a modem
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Sucking up cpu cycles to modulate the signal
[03:42] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> eyequeue: lol well, is there any offical relese date?
[03:42] <Warbo> Zambezi: 1) Try "file filename.tar.gz" and see what it finds, and if it says gzip then try "gunzip filename.tar.gz"
[03:43] <Hexidigital_> drew32::  still there?
[03:43] <eyequeue> Larynx, back in the old says of bbs's, there's a reason sysops always preferred external modems ... real hardware works best
[03:43] <Zambezi> Warbo, You probably understand why I'm frustrated. The commands are strange and then my f-ing file is broke. :-P
[03:43] <Jamminpotato> if i want to set upa basic file server/bittorrenting box that would only be accessed via ssh from my main computer, what would be the best ubuntu setup for that? maybe ubuntu server+xfce or fluxbox?
[03:43] <stiv2k> is there any way i can convert from .daa to .ISO format?
[03:43] <eyequeue> XxXBrAnDoNXxX, was aug 31 given?  i haven't tracked it lately, let me see if the bot has a link to a schedule
[03:43] <eyequeue> !edgy
[03:43] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[03:43] <caglar_> can I convert to dapper when etchy should fail?
[03:43] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: :> but aint there alot of shit that has to be done fer a hardware?
[03:43] <paradizelost> Jamminpotato: if you are only accessing via ssh, no X is required
[03:43] <eyequeue> !schedule
[03:43] <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
[03:43] <Zambezi> Warbo, *haha* It thinks it's a HTML-documnet.
[03:43] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: i meen fer it to work
[03:44] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: common wisdom is not to use any graphical interface on a secure server at all
[03:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: No.. not at all...
[03:44] <Flannel> caglar_: what?
[03:44] <Larynx> eyequeue: bbs?
[03:44] <Jamminpotato> nozorro, oh ok, i've never done the whole ssh thing before how exactly would it work?
[03:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: You plug a hardware odem into a com port of almost any linux system and it will work just fine
[03:44] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> eyequeue: here is the url for the schedule https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseSchedule
[03:44] <eyequeue> XxXBrAnDoNXxX, bingo!  today!
[03:45] <Jamminpotato> so jut ubuntu server then and ssh to it?
[03:45] <eyequeue> Larynx, bulletin board system ... think "pre-internet" (though that is inaccurate)
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Plus it will not eat up your cpu to simulate a modem
[03:45] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: read up on it on the web, it's really not trivial
[03:45] <nozorro> !ssh
[03:45] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto). Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows, which can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[03:45] <Jamminpotato> and then my current ocmputer will handle the windowing managing?
[03:45] <phargle> you should build your own modem using a sound card and umm.. some wires, and stuff
[03:45] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: sweet.. i actually bought one before when i had ubuntu.. but the port-thingy didnt match :<
[03:45] <Larynx> eyequeue: and what is that in swedish? ^^
[03:45] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> eyequeue: lol I live in US central time zone, Do you know what he uk time zone is?
[03:45] <matthewf> how can i tell for sure what video mode x is working in ? .. (the display settings in gnome may be lieing to me)
[03:45] <Docmur> I have a 32 bit chroot env set up on dapper 64 bit and I want to know how to link the 32 bit programs so I run them from the menu in gnome
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Was it 9 pin d shell or ?
[03:46] <Warbo> Larynx: ANY modem which uses a serial port will work, just give the dialer the device as "/dev/ttyS0"
[03:46] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: not sure what you mean, if your server has graphical interface installed, yes you can remotely use them from the local box
[03:46] <PiTT> what packages do i need to install to get KDE programs to work in ubuntu?
[03:46] <Cerebellum> hey I was wondering if anyone could help me out with some php stuff
[03:46] <Cerebellum> just a simple question really
[03:46] <Docmur> the KDE libs and such will be installed as dep
[03:46] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: but you're better off not using any gr. interface on a public server
[03:46] <Cerebellum> or refer me to a good php channel
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> PiTT: Use synaptic and have it get whatever you want, I use K3B and Konversation in Gnome/Ubuntu
[03:46] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: a big blob at the end of the bable.. like a scart ^^
[03:47] <Warbo> PiTT: Usually just install the program and anything it needs will get installed too. If you want a full-blown KDE system then the "kubuntu-desktop" will install LOADS of stuff for you
[03:47] <Larynx> cable*
[03:47] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: .. because of security
[03:47] <eyequeue> XxXBrAnDoNXxX, i think it's about 5 hours from you
[03:47] <Jamminpotato> nozorro, so if i use ssh to remotely login to it, then would i have to do everything by the command line?
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Big blob at the end?  What shape of blob?
[03:47] <boricua> Cerebellum:ask thye darn q?
[03:47] <Docmur> I have a 32 bit chroot env set up on dapper 64 bit and I want to know how to link the 32 bit programs so I run them from the menu in gnome
[03:47] <matthewf> anyone know why the res i want isnt showing up in display settings ?
[03:47] <AustLaw> is there any way to scroll up in a shell?
[03:47] <boricua> audreyt, page up
[03:48] <Warbo> AustLaw: Usually Shift-PgUp
[03:48] <boricua> audreyt: i use mousr wheel
[03:48] <eyequeue> AustLaw, shift-pgup, sometimes
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: Did you install the correct drivers for your video card.. and what type of video card..
[03:48] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: haha.. shiet.. nevermind.. it was big and.. early 90ies
[03:48] <PiTT> Jack_Sparrow: the reason why i ask is i installed konversation, which is what im using now, but for some odd reason the server connect window has all messed up grahpics
[03:48] <jimbo> !resolution
[03:48] <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
[03:48] <PiTT> and i cant close it
[03:48] <PiTT> dunno why
[03:48] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> eyequeue: Thanx, but still lol, I want it now!
[03:48] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: yes you can remotely administer the server from command line (or using other interfaces). Linux is ideal for such things -- but like i said it's not trivial and you need to learn stuff
[03:48] <haasteem> i am having trouble mounting my floppy drive... when i do 'mount' it says it is already mounted or busy, and when i do 'umount' it says that it is not mounted... does anyone know what might be the problem?
[03:48] <boricua> AustLaw:mouse wheel
[03:49] <fiXXXerMet> Hi.  Just installed a fresh ubuntu-server, updated the kernel, and I'm trying to do a find, but I get "locate: /var/cache/locate/locatedb: No such file or directory"  Any ideas?
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: It should still work with a 9 pin adapter..
[03:49] <leed> When I run a install.sh, it said "checking for X... no","error:X development libraries not found"
[03:49] <leed> Which library should to be installed?
[03:49] <AustLaw> none of those worked :/
[03:49] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: oh i belive so.. but i didnt have any adapter :<
[03:49] <boricua> fiXXXerMet, run updatedb
[03:49] <Jamminpotato> nozorro, it will be on the same intranet as my main box and behidn a firewall and really only for my use and not visible to the outside, ....so would having a graphical interface be bad
[03:49] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow:  i have correct drivers installed, and they are working.. also have the only correct res for my lcd screen as the sole res in xorg.conf but the gnome display settings thing still says 1024x768
[03:50] <JoseStefan> I think my ubuntu is not using a framebuffer for CLI, How could I confirm? -if that is the case, should I try to enable it?
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Dig it out.. even a 10 year old hardware modem works better than a winmodem in Linux
[03:50] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> eyequeue: LMAO!
[03:50] <mortal5> I want to do some development in C, I'd like to install the compiler and tools used to build the kernel, which if i understand correctly, are different than those used to build the rest of ubuntu
[03:50] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: yes i belive you..
[03:50] <fiXXXerMet> Thank you, boricua.
[03:50] <smwon> What does "dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege" mean?
[03:51] <cafuego> JoseStefan: Does it show the progress bar when it boots up?
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf:  drop to terminal and type glxgears -printfps
[03:51] <JoseStefan> cafuego, yes
[03:51] <Ash-Fox> smwon, means you need to put 'sudo' before your command
[03:51] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow:  there a command to see exactly what display res that x is running in ?
[03:51] <cafuego> JoseStefan: It uses a framebuffer then.
[03:51] <smwon> thank you
[03:51] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: in that case, if the firewall is tight enough, gr interface will be ok. but if your server, even being behind the firewall, is for public use, things are different. it depends a lot on concrete conditions
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: And did you mention what video card you are working with
[03:51] <AustLaw> is there a way to remove the minimize/maximize animation in gnome?
[03:52] <minerale> I have gnome and fluxbox, and I switch between them from time to time, the menus between them do not match, I can't figure out why, Ie I have some entries that are in both but some entries that only show in gnome, where is the menu stored ?
[03:52] <JoseStefan> cafuego, but when going to CLI it uses (80x25)
[03:52] <Jamminpotato> nozorro, it wont be for pulbic use, well not this year, next year when im at college it will be...but that will be a next summer proejct
[03:52] <Jamminpotato> right now its just for my use
[03:52] <de_wizze> what are the future planet for the multimedia platforms in Unbuntu, along the lines of "What are the prospectives for things lick NMM and PolyAudio or the like ( Im not sure how Gstreamer relates to PA)
[03:52] <cafuego> JoseStefan: So you have an 80x25 framebuffer.
[03:52] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: tho i think i gave the modem to my brother.. :/
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: apex makes a good hardware modem for under $30
[03:53] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: nvidia
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Dont beat yourself silly fighting a winmodem
[03:53] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: ok in that case just install normal ubuntu (with desktop) or xubuntu on the server, plus the bittorrent server software. i can't tell you anything about the latter, though. In any case make sure the firewall is tight enough.
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: What do you get in glx gears and Model number of the nvidia
[03:53] <Warbo> minerale: Fluxbox uses the "Debian menu" system. Look in Application>Debian in GNOME if it is there. If not then "sudo apt-get install menu" will get it
[03:54] <Ash-Fox> Larynx, the winmodems overlord will never comply.
[03:54] <Jamminpotato> nozorro, isn't there a special server ubuntu version?
[03:54] <drew32> anyone have any exprience with ssh tunneling?
[03:54] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: res i am after is 1280x1024 . its a 6200, and around 600fps or so
[03:54] <JoseStefan> cafuego, is the only way to change that editing menu.lst or is there another way?
[03:54] <mortal5> does anyone program C in here?
[03:54] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: the one i found was a good one.. cant remember what its called.. hmm.. belive it was two words.. hmm
[03:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Cannon Winprinters are also a problem
[03:54] <dr_willis> i will never buy canon again in the future...
[03:54] <Exclamation> i need help getting my broadcom wireless working...tried the method on the fourms but it didnt work...
[03:54] <dr_willis> unless they do some major changes.
[03:55] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: yes but as it is common with Linux to do without graph. interface for servers, it is not included (i think) in ubuntu's server setup
[03:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: Any hardware odem that plugs into a com port will be fine
[03:55] <cafuego> JoseStefan: There is supposedly a cli tool, but I don't remember its name and when I used it back in 2001 it didn't work well at all ;-)
[03:55] <smwon> Ok what does mean "dpkg: parse error, in file `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0011' near line 1:
[03:55] <smwon>  newline in field name `#padding' " mean?
[03:55] <foo> Would anyone happen to know if I can get UltraVNC to work on ubuntu ? I want to set up a listen only server. hmm
[03:56] <Killerkiwi> Anybody, when is vtiger 5 scheculed to be released?
[03:56] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: beat myself silly ^^ i think its fun.. learn alot of shit. kick ass
[03:56] <Larynx> ^^
[03:56] <Warbo> I used to use a large-style serial modem in Linux fine, by pulling apart an old 486 to create a new wire to plug it into the smaller serial ports that are the norm these days
[03:56] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: to be frank, ubuntu server is just some kind of stripped down ubuntu if you ask me ... because there are better Linux distros for servers ... anyway it will help you to have the same distro on both server and desktop
[03:56] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow:  i just want to know if X is running in the right res, as i dont trust the Display control pannel thing
[03:57] <Jamminpotato> nozorro, thanks
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: There are many others things to learn that will be of more use to you in the future than tuning a winmodem
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: What do you get in glx gears
[03:57] <nozorro> Jamminpotato: there's a ton of documentation on the net about Linux servers, just grab it and read, read, read
[03:57] <cafuego> nozorro: Ubuntu server actually installs a different kernel (Though I haven't check in what way it stands out from the desktop kernels)
[03:57] <Larynx> Jack_Sparrow: well maybe ur right after all.. who needs a dial-up modem in the bright future anyways.. :/ exept me who live out in the woods
[03:57] <haasteem> i am having trouble mounting my floppy drive... when i do 'mount' it says it is already mounted or busy, and when i do 'umount' it says that it is not mounted... does anyone know what might be the problem?
[03:57] <Larynx> :<
[03:57] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow:  around 600fps
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf:  What modem video card.. my Nivida 6600 gets 5000+
[03:58] <Jack_Sparrow> model
[03:58] <matthewf> 6200
[03:58] <JoseStefan> cafuego, is the "vga" option a grub feature or a kernel feature, and where could I find official docs for that?
[03:58] <nozorro> cafuego: yeah, i still have to look into the server edition a bit more, but frankly i think Canonical is not doing itself a favour here ... they should focus on the desktop for now
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf:  How did you install the drivers for it?
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Larynx: go fo it, you will not be disappointed
[03:59] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> !nivida
[03:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nivida - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:07] <MagicFab> is there an application to manage video collections in ubuntu (like Rhythm box for audio or Digikam / F-spot for pics) ?
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> MagicFab: I use digikam in Ubuntu
[04:07] <Grok_> is there a way to view a SSL enabled page (https) with mozilla browser without having to download and recompile it with the crypto switch? i'm finding it hard to believe that i've found something this basic that doesn't "work out of the box" like so many other things that are bundled with ubuntu.
[04:08] <drew32> looking for help with ssh tunneling can anyone help me?
[04:08] <sirrush> Hello Everyone
[04:08] <MagicFab> Jack_Sparrow, digikam doesn't handle videos, does it ?
[04:08] <MagicFab> !ssh
[04:08] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto). Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows, which can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[04:08] <jrib> Grok_: I believe you can just install mozilla-psm from universe
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> MagicFab: I should have read more carefully...
[04:08] <MagicFab> !tunnel
[04:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tunnel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:08] <jdmpike> trying to mount a samba file share on my xubuntu server... I am following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba to the letter
[04:09] <Grok_> jrib you rock. i new my addled brain was stumbling around needlessly. much appreciated
[04:09] <jrib> Grok_: np
[04:09] <paradizelost> jdmpike: what is your issue?
[04:09] <Wicked_> Hello, what is the latest version of gconf-editor?
[04:09] <jrib> !info gconf-editor
[04:09] <ubotu> gconf-editor: An editor for the GConf configuration system. In component main, is optional. Version 2.14.0-0ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 183 kB, installed size 1736 kB
[04:09] <Wicked_> aw
[04:09] <paradizelost> jdmpike: you can't get it to mount? you are getting an error? what?
[04:10] <jdmpike> paradizelost, when I try to mount it, I get 9732: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
[04:10] <Wicked_> thanks
[04:10] <paradizelost> jdmpike: did you try a -o user=username,pass=password?
[04:11] <paradizelost> jdmpike: an access denied means that you aren't authenticated correctly, or you have the security setup incorrectly
[04:11] <matthewjames> hey guys, HUGE PROBLEM, ubuntu freezes when try to logout, shut down, etc when button is clicked
[04:11] <jdmpike> I created a /etc/samba/user file and put "credentials=/etc/samba/user" in my fstab
[04:12] <paradizelost> jdmpike: please paste the line from the fstab
[04:12] <jdmpike> /luckyseven/garage1 /media/luckyseven smbfs credentials=/etc/samba/user,rw,uid=jordan 0 0
[04:12] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewjames: What changes did you make during this last session when the problem started
[04:12] <paradizelost> jdmpike: first thing, you need // instead of / for the initial slash
[04:12] <jdmpike> there are two // before the servername
[04:12] <jdmpike> it pasted wrong in xchat
[04:13] <matthewjames> the problem has been occuring since the update to lts
[04:13] <paradizelost> k
[04:13] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: gonna get the pastbin now
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[04:13] <paradizelost> jdmpike: have you done a sudo apt-get install smbfs?
[04:13] <jdmpike> yes
[04:13] <gentoo> hi
[04:13] <matthewjames> Jack Sparrow: the problem has been occuring since the update to lts

[04:14] <gentoo> is this gentoo support channel_
[04:14] <gentoo> $

[04:14] <paradizelost> ?
[04:14] <gentoo> is this gentoo support channel_
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> [19:13]  <matthewjames> Jack Sparrow: the problem has been occuring since the update to lts... makes no sense to me
[04:14] <gentoo> $
[04:14] <gentoo> help
[04:14] <gentoo> i am new to gentoo
[04:14] <gentoo> can you help me
[04:14] <unikon> this is ubuntu support
[04:15] <unikon>  gentto
[04:15] <jdmpike> I am running xubuntu
[04:15] <cliffd> you are in the wrong channel
[04:15] <matthewjames> this has been happening since i upgraded ubuntu to newset verson
[04:15] <sethk> gentoo, I can help you install a different distro  :)
[04:15] <jdmpike> so I don't have a file browser with native smb support
[04:15] <cliffd> one that doesnt take 3 days to build ;)
[04:15] <matthewjames> Jack Sparrow: since 6.06
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewjames: SO you went from an earlier version to dapper...
[04:15] <sethk> cliffd, right, and runs faster too
[04:15] <matthewjames> no, to lts
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> L T S
[04:16] <matthewjames> yes
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Ok...
[04:16] <matthewjames> ever since that update, freezes on shutdown
[04:17] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewjames: I am already working on my last problem of the day.... SOmeone else may be able to help
[04:17] <matthewjames> k
[04:17] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: pastebin.com/781071
[04:17] <paradizelost> jdmpike: you get my pm?
[04:17] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks
[04:17] <matthewjames> can anyone tell me how to get L T S 6.06 to shutdown, it freezes
[04:17] <jdmpike> paradizelost, yes I did
[04:17] <jdmpike> paradizelost, I was in the channel
[04:17] <paradizelost> matthewjames: open an xterm and type sudo halt
[04:18] <sethk> matthewjames, when it freezes, can you ssh into it from your network?  (assuming you have a network, of course)
[04:18] <matthewjames> ok
[04:18] <irawan> matthewjames: well, that would be pressing the reset button
[04:18] <matthewjames> xterm, just terminal?
[04:18] <Exclamation> i need help getting my wireless net working...
[04:18] <sethk> matthewjames, the correct way to shut down from the command line is    shutdown -h now
[04:18] <matthewjames> ok, ty guys
[04:18] <sethk> matthewjames, yes, from any terminal.
[04:18] <irawan> matthewjames: or on/off button
[04:18] <zodo> Hi all. I'm running Dapper Server on an old P2 laptop with 384megs of ram. It is acting as my router. Whenever a machine behind it runs bittorrent, within a few hours the laptop locks, hard.  I've found a few Swapper: Page Allocation Errors in the log, and I suspect that there are just to many connections for the thing to handle. /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max is at 24568.  Any suggestions?  Is there a way to get it to throw away old/
[04:18] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow:  so that xorg look ok to you ?
[04:19] <BlueEagle> matthewjames: How and when does it freeze?
[04:19] <leed>  Jack_Sparrow: When I run a install.sh, it said "checking for X... no","error:X development libraries not found", Which library should to be installed?
[04:19] <matthewjames> freezes when i click shutdown button, stays at black screen
[04:19] <jdmpike> unikon, I don't think I can pm because my nick is not identified
[04:19] <sethk> zodo, you can adjust how long a connection must be idle until it is discarded, if that's what you are asking
[04:19] <sethk> zodo, but running out of connections is pretty unlikely.
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: I dont see any subsections for display
[04:20] <sethk> matthewjames, can you ssh into the box from the network at that point?
[04:20] <matthewjames> no
[04:20] <zodo> sethk: Any ideas then?
[04:20] <unikon> jdmpike i think ive seen you in #kc-lug
[04:20] <BlueEagle> matthewjames: So no splash screen at all?
[04:20] <matthewjames> nope
[04:20] <zodo> It's driving me nuts.  :)
[04:20] <matthewjames> just black
[04:20] <unikon>  why dont u register it then jdmpike
[04:20] <paradizelost> matthewjames: try CTRL+ALT+F1
[04:20] <hoehaver> im trying to install gaim v v and when I configure one of the packages I get this error message
[04:20] <hoehaver> In file included from gstj2k.c:27:
[04:20] <hoehaver> gstj2kdec.h:26:21: error: gst/gst.h: No such file or directory
[04:20] <matthewjames> right now?
[04:21] <hoehaver> what file do I need? where is it at or how do I get it?
[04:21] <BlueEagle> zodo: How big a swap partition you got?
[04:21] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: well seeing as i only need the one resolution(my LCDs native res) its pointless haveing all the others
[04:21] <paradizelost> matthewjames: when it locks
[04:21] <matthewjames> ok
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[04:21] <sethk> zodo, sounds more like it is running out of memory.  You might want to add additional swap space.  Or, set memory quotas for a process
[04:21] <cliffd> can someone help me with this
[04:21] <cliffd> http://pastebin.ca/156862
[04:21] <matthewjames> ima try to shut down from comman, and try that if it happens, wish me luck :P
[04:21] <sethk> zodo, adding swap is easy and simple and the logical thing to try, I think
[04:21] <BlueEagle> sethk: my thoughts exactly. :)
[04:21] <paradizelost> k
[04:22] <cliffd> trying to use autogen.sh --prefix=/usr for superswitcher http://pastebin.ca/156862 but it says missing .m4's? never heard of those.
[04:22] <zodo> That's possible.  It's a small hard drive...ubuntu has all of 4 gigs, and if I recall correctly, it's all of a few hundred megs swap.
[04:22] <paradizelost> jdmpike: are you getting my pm's?
[04:22] <sethk> cliffd, is the m4 package installed?
[04:22] <BlueEagle> sethk: Would a borked swap partition give the same error tho?
[04:22] <sethk> BlueEagle, possibly, yes
[04:22] <cliffd> sethk: yes.
[04:22] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: is there a way from the shell to show current xorg video mode ?
[04:22] <unikon> paradizelost his nics not registered
[04:22] <aSt3raL> hello.  what is a good html editor with php support?
[04:22] <cliffd> aSt3raL: vim ;)
[04:23] <sethk> cliffd, what are you building?
[04:23] <aSt3raL> any wysiwyg ones?
[04:23] <cliffd> sethk: super switcher
[04:23] <paradizelost> nutz
[04:23] <zodo> So, path of action is this: Check swap for grevious errors, then allocate more space to swap.
[04:23] <BlueEagle> ast3ral: wysiwyg != good editor :)
[04:23] <paradizelost> jdmpike: Ok, if you type      mount.cifs //servername/share /media/mountpoint -o credentials=/etc/samba/user
[04:23] <paradizelost> what do you get
[04:23] <aSt3raL> i hate vim too
[04:23] <zodo> I'm just surprised that running out of memory would lock the machine.
[04:23] <aSt3raL> its crap
[04:23] <sethk> cliffd, not familiar with it.  do other things build from source normally?
[04:23] <diseaser> vim rules
[04:23] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> PHPNUKE IS BETTER lol.
[04:24] <paradizelost> zodo: the machine requires memory to function
[04:24] <BlueEagle> ast3ral: For web devel I prefer quanta. I hear bluefish is also very good.
[04:24] <TLE_02> whats the convention optione when writing shell scripts? Do I define a default value or just determine if it has been set to non-null or not ?
[04:24] <sethk> zodo, it's not a high reliability o/s, and it's evolved, not designed, so you shouldn't be surprised about that at all
[04:24] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: becuse im pretty sure its not setting the res, dispite that being the only res it can select according to the config, but i need to now for sure
[04:24] <zodo> Hah, I suppose so.
[04:24] <zodo> Alright.
[04:24] <cliffd> sethk: I tried building expocity, which is a patch for metacity and that says I dont have the right .pc files. but other then that I havent tried to build anything.
[04:24] <TLE_02> convention optione=convention for options
[04:24] <sethk> cliffd, let me see if those names map to a package
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: Your glxgears result tells me something is not right...
[04:25] <zodo> Thanks, folks.
[04:25] <cliffd> sethk: thanks much. how does one do that?
[04:25] <aSt3raL> ok another question: im having trouble mounting and viewing with nfs. specificlly i want to make /var/www/ shared on the network but its not working
[04:25] <kitche> matthewf there is no real way to get res in the console, but you should be able to do it in X
[04:25] <aSt3raL> i think there may be an issue with user syncing?
[04:25] <aSt3raL> any ideas?
[04:25] <sethk> cliffd, see if package   pkg-config     is installed
[04:25] <paradizelost> matthewf: are you trying to get Xgl working?
[04:25] <paradizelost> or just having issues w/ X
[04:25] <cliffd> sethk: yes.
[04:25] <sethk> aSt3raL, you added the directory to /etc/exports, and ran exportfs?
[04:26] <aSt3raL> yes and then i try an mount and it wont mount
[04:26] <sethk> aSt3raL, you started NFS server on the exporting machine?
[04:26] <mutk> aSt3raL, What OS is the NFS client that is mounting the NFS export?
[04:26] <paradizelost> aSt3raL: you installed portmap?
[04:26] <matthewf> Jack_Sparrow: well if something is not right, i have no idea what it could be, the xorg.conf i assume is set up right.. and everything is detected in the nvidia-settings thing
[04:26] <sethk> cliffd, package gnome-common, glade-gnome, and/or glade-gnome-2?
[04:26] <cdubya> why am I continuously getting a message from the update-manager now that I have 158 updates? I added a new version of wine from the winehq repo, but then removed it as a repo and I still am getting the notification. It's really a nuisance more than anything. Any ideas?
[04:27] <paradizelost> cdubya: did you do an apt-get update after removing the repo from the list?
[04:27] <cdubya> paradizelost, yep
[04:27] <aSt3raL> heres what its doing now: i mounted it and i go to the mountpoint and theres nothing.. then i try andy twice and wont unmount umount and it says device is bus
[04:27] <paradizelost> cdubya: what are the updates it says that you need?
[04:27] <mutk> aSt3raL, Steps: 1) start nfs service 'service nfs start'  2) on NFS server do 'showmount -e' to see if any exports are available..
[04:27] <cliffd> sethk: gnome-common yes, glade-gnome(2) no. should I install glade-gnome and glade-gnome2 ?
[04:27] <matthewf> paradizelost: cant seem to get X to change to the res i want.. and i need to find a way of makeing sure it is, as the display settings thingy in gnome is werid
[04:27] <aSt3raL> y twice and wont unmount
[04:28] <sethk> cliffd, I'm not sure, those packages have a gnome-compiler-flags.m4 file, but so does gnome-common.
[04:28] <Exclamation> can someone please help me, i have broadcom wirelesss and cant get it to work
[04:28] <kruncher> What is the command name that shows you what programs have files and directory handles still open?
[04:28] <BlueEagle> matthewf: Check your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and check that the resolution you want is listed there.
[04:28] <cdubya> paradizelost, you mean which ones DON'T I need.....heh. It's trying to virtually update everything, from apache2 (which is installed already) through a slew of other apps
[04:28] <paradizelost> matthewf: what type of vid. card?
[04:28] <sethk> cliffd, it might be interesting to see if any errors occurred, but it might not tell us anything useful
[04:28] <aSt3raL> it shows them both there
[04:28] <BlueEagle> matthewf: also most OSDs show you the current resolution and refresh rate.
[04:28] <aSt3raL> i can mount the home directory
[04:28] <paradizelost> cdubya: but there may be updates to what you have installed
[04:28] <aSt3raL> so nfs works
[04:28] <Jack_Sparrow> matthewf: I wish I had an answer for you...
[04:28] <paradizelost> just do an apt-get upgrade
[04:28] <sethk> aSt3raL, it's mounted, you can't see it, but you can't umount it?
[04:28] <aSt3raL> yes
[04:28] <cliffd> sethk: installing now.
[04:29] <sethk> aSt3raL, you might try the root_squash option, that can produce odd behavior
[04:29] <matthewf> BlueEagle:  it is listed, infact  as im on a LCD i only have one res listed but it ant showing up in the gnome settings thing
[04:29] <paradizelost> aSt3raL: check the permisions on the export
[04:29] <aSt3raL> i have it set as root_squash
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> I need to call it a night... 7:30 pm and I have been up since 2am.. someone else will have a soultion
[04:29] <sethk> aSt3raL, ok...
[04:29] <aSt3raL> could that be the problem?
[04:29] <paradizelost> aSt3raL: yah, if you have it exported too restricted, you might not be able to mount it
[04:29] <BlueEagle> matthewf: the gnome settings thing doesn't list any resolutions at all for me.
[04:29] <sethk> aSt3raL, it's easy to change, so try it.  As I said I've seen that option cause odd behavior.
[04:29] <aSt3raL> ok
[04:30] <BlueEagle> matthewf: Then again I'm running a dual screen setup.
[04:30] <aSt3raL> how can i unmount it now?
[04:30] <sethk> aSt3raL, what happens when you try to umount?
[04:30] <paradizelost> matthewf: pastebin a copy of your xorg.conf
[04:30] <paradizelost> please
[04:30] <aSt3raL> it says device is busy twice and doesnt unmount
[04:30] <matthewf> its realy a simple question of what is there i can do to tell what res xorg is running at
[04:30] <sethk> aSt3raL, any log messages on the server side?
[04:30] <paradizelost> aSt3raL: do an        lsof|grep /mount/point
[04:30] <kruncher> lsof
[04:31] <kruncher> haha
[04:31] <cdubya> paradizelost, point taken, but my whole system.....I've never had to install that many updates before.....
[04:31] <paradizelost> cdubya: doesn't mean that that many updates haven't come out...
[04:31] <paradizelost> after a fresh load on 6.06 or 5.10, i spend hours updating
[04:31] <matthewf> paradizelost: pastebin.com/781071
[04:31] <aSt3raL> its not there with lsof
[04:31] <aSt3raL> what does lsof do?
[04:32] <cliffd> sethk: all those .m4 files are in /usr/share/aclocal, I set ACLOCAL_FLAGS=/usr/share/aclocal and it still gives the same error
[04:32] <keleus> Does the Ubuntu CD have dar?
[04:32] <TheGame> dar?
[04:32] <paradizelost> lsof = list of open files
[04:32] <keleus> http://dar.linux.free.fr/
[04:32] <paradizelost> think of it like ls, just it shows open files/pipes
[04:32] <haasteem> i can't seem to get my floppy drive mounted, can anyone please help me?
[04:32] <sethk> cliffd, I'm not sure what's going on.  something related to automake/autoconf, probably, but I don't have a good idea about what, specifically.
[04:32] <cdubya> paradizelost, yeah, I guess I'm not looking forward to waiting on that many.....:-P
[04:32] <drew32> still looking for help on ssh tunneling a game, anyone got any help?
[04:32] <sethk> cliffd, let me think on it for a bit, maybe I'll be inspired  :)
[04:32] <paradizelost> cdubya: start it and go to the bar...
[04:32] <paradizelost> ;)
[04:33] <Warbo> Does Realplayer use OSS? It isn't making any noise, even with volume on full
[04:33] <aSt3raL> ok i found some open files on the client
[04:33] <cliffd> sethk: do you know the var to set the ACLOCAL_PATH ?
[04:33] <kitche> haasteem what have you tried?
[04:33] <aSt3raL> what now?
[04:33] <paradizelost> aSt3raL: umount -f /mount/point
[04:33] <aSt3raL> i think i tried that lemme try again
[04:33] <matthewf> paradizelost: does that xorg.conf look ok to you ?
[04:34] <paradizelost> matthewf: did you install the nvidia drivers from their site?
[04:34] <paradizelost> using the .sh file?
[04:34] <pestilence> so i have a 6.06 cd in my cdrom.  and i ran apt-cdrom add, and ran apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade.  but it only wanted to upgrade like 4 packages.  what gives?
[04:34] <aSt3raL> that gives a different device is busy and does nothing
[04:34] <aSt3raL> do i have to reboot?
[04:34] <h00t> hello ... can someone tell me how can i create a link to my home directory on my desktop
[04:34] <Xenguy> drew32: dunno, but google ssh tunnel and I'm sure you'd get some good advice
[04:34] <paradizelost> pestilence: apt-get dist-upgrade upgrades a hell of a lot of stuff
[04:34] <matthewf> paradizelost: no i used the instuctions on the ubuntu help
[04:34] <paradizelost> aSt3raL: might seem that way
[04:34] <jikanter> !link
[04:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about link - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:34] <pestilence> paradizelost, it *should*
[04:34] <aSt3raL> damnit
[04:34] <pestilence> paradizelost, but it doesn't.
[04:34] <Warbo> h00t: Applications>Accessories>Alacarte Menu Editor
[04:34] <sethk> cliffd, I did some work with those macros several months ago, but my memory is too hazy I think to be useful.
[04:35] <Warbo> h00t: Tell me when that's open
[04:35] <pestilence> paradizelost, it should upgrade the entire system to dapper from breezy.  but it doesn't want to do that and i can't figure out why
[04:35] <haasteem> kitche, about everything
[04:35] <sethk> aSt3raL, a stuck umount is one of te few things that frequently can only be cleared by a reboot
[04:35] <aSt3raL> i dont understand why trying to mount a nfs hoses the system so much
[04:35] <cliffd> sethk: if you set ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /path/to/aclocal" it worked. thanks very much for the help
[04:35] <aSt3raL> ok will do
[04:35] <kitche> haasteem: does it spit any errors out?
[04:35] <Warbo> pestilence: Have you commented out any Breezy lines?
[04:35] <paradizelost> pestilence: in your /etc/apt/sources.list change every instance of breezy to dapper
[04:35] <sethk> cliffd, good, although I can't really take any credit for it.  :)
[04:35] <h00t> done
[04:36] <paradizelost> matthewf: it's also possible you might need to change the 24 to a 16.
[04:36] <JoseStefan> pestilence: alternate CD right?
[04:36] <Warbo> h00t: OK, go on System Tools on the left
[04:36] <pestilence> paradizelost, i don't want to be downloading the upgrades, as i have the cd and my internet connection is slow
[04:36] <paradizelost> i've seen some screens have issues running in 24bit mode
[04:36] <pestilence> JoseStefan, no, it's a kubuntu cd
[04:36] <haasteem> kitche, no... when i want to mount it says that iti si busy or already mounted, when i do umount itsays it is not mounted
[04:36] <Warbo> h00t: Then tick "Configuration Editor"
[04:36] <cliffd> sethk: you pointed me in the right direction. and got my brain working. thanks again.
[04:36] <h00t> ok
[04:36] <sethk> cliffd, np
[04:36] <pestilence> Warbo, i tried both.  with breezy lines commented (so the kubuntu cd is the only thing listed) and with the breezy lines uncommented
[04:36] <JoseStefan> pestilence: but is it alternate or desktop (live)?
[04:36] <Warbo> h00t: Then quit Alacarte and go in Applications>System Tools>Configuration Editor
[04:36] <h00t> wait ... there's no "configuration editor"
[04:36] <bluefox83> !mplayer
[04:36] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer/Compile to compile it from source or enable multiverse repo and type sudo apt-get install mplayer for more info please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer
[04:36] <matthewf> paradizelost: 16bit is rather... pointless for the use that this machine will have
[04:36] <ubotu> For Codecs try !codecs Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MplayerInstallHowto for installation tips.
[04:37] <kitche> haasteem: did you check /media
[04:37] <BlueEagle> matthewf: if you install the package sysinfo you've got an "other" tab that lists the current resolution
[04:37] <pestilence> JoseStefan, it's the official kubuntu cd, official press
[04:37] <paradizelost> matthewf: i'm just saying that some screens can't run at native in 24bit
[04:37] <BlueEagle> matthewf: Mine reads: 2560x1024
[04:37] <haasteem> kitche, what do you mean?
[04:37] <h00t> there's no config editor there to
[04:37] <Warbo> h00t: There should be.... You could try launching it manually with "gconfeditor"
[04:37] <letsgfuad> anyone know how to make it so ubuntu recognizes my external HD... when its plugged in the external HD will mount, but i cannot read or play music
[04:37] <Warbo> (in a terminal)
[04:37] <paradizelost> pestilence: are you upgrading an ubuntu 5.10 with a kubuntu 6.06 cd?
[04:37] <kitche> haasteem: think it uses /media check there think it's /media/floppy
[04:38] <haasteem> there is: /media/floppy0
[04:38] <jikanter> letsgfaud: yeah I do I will help
[04:38] <BlueEagle> !info gconf-editor
[04:38] <pestilence> paradizelost, well, i have kubuntu-desktop installed on this machine.  and i think it came from a kubuntu cd but i can'tremember at this point
[04:38] <ubotu> gconf-editor: An editor for the GConf configuration system. In component main, is optional. Version 2.14.0-0ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 183 kB, installed size 1736 kB
[04:38] <haasteem> kitche, there is: /media/floppy0
[04:38] <jrib> Warbo: it got removed in dapper from the menu
[04:38] <jikanter> letsfgaud: sudo apt-get install automount
[04:38] <pestilence> paradizelost, actually, i'm pretty sure i never had ubuntu-desktop installed.
[04:38] <Warbo> Oops, yes there is a -
[04:38] <bengt_> Hi Guys
[04:38] <kitche> haasteem: check there
[04:38] <paradizelost> pestilence: did you use an ubuntu cd to install the OS, or a kubuntu CD?
[04:38] <Warbo> jrib: I know, I directed h00t to Alacarte but it wasn't there to enable
[04:38] <letsgfuad> E: Couldn't find package automount
[04:38] <haasteem> kitche, to see if it is mounted you mean?
[04:39] <Warbo> h00t: Looks like it should be "gconf-editor"
[04:39] <pestilence> paradizelost, i am not 100% certain, but i think it was a kubuntu cd.   the boot screen says kubuntu
[04:39] <kitche> haasteem: yeah
[04:39] <JoseStefan> pestilence: the kubuntu desktop CD is not suitable for upgrades
[04:39] <pestilence> it was a while ago.  and i did have ubuntu on this mahcine at one point
[04:39] <haasteem> kitche, it is not
[04:39] <pestilence> JoseStefan, oh that's great.
[04:39] <bengt_> I have a problem with a directory that I can not delete... d-wSr---wt  .... rm: cannot remove directory ... Operation not permitted
[04:39] <sethk> pestilence, it says kubuntu even if you use the ubuntu cd and install kde, so that doesn't tell anything one way or the other
[04:39] <paradizelost> pestilence: that happens if you install w/ ubuntu and do an apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[04:39] <pestilence> JoseStefan,  how did you determine that?
[04:39] <eyequeue> bengt_, sudo rm
[04:39] <letsgfuad> jikanter: E: Couldn't find package automount
[04:39] <haasteem> kitche, i have a disk inside the drive but nothing shows up (i use xfe, not nautilus)
[04:39] <bengt_> How can I rectify this? I think my hd has had some problems which might have caused this...
[04:39] <BlueEagle> bengt_: and which directory is this?
[04:40] <hoehaver>  5) su
[04:40] <hoehaver> 6) make install
[04:40] <hoehaver> 7) exit (the root environment)
[04:40] <bengt_> eyequeue: sorry, sudo do not work///
[04:40] <pestilence> sethk, paradizelost ok, fine, but i am pretty sure i installed with a kubuntu cd ;)
[04:40] <hoehaver> if I type exit in a term it will exit it out
[04:40] <bengt_> bengt@myssie:~$ cd /var/lib/dpkg/info/
[04:40] <bengt_> bengt@myssie:/var/lib/dpkg/info$ ls -lad libnautilus-extension1.list/
[04:40] <bengt_> d-wSr---wt  2 21791 11934 12288 1964-07-07 08:17 libnautilus-extension1.list/
[04:40] <bengt_> bengt@myssie:/var/lib/dpkg/info$ file !$
[04:40] <bengt_> file libnautilus-extension1.list/
[04:40] <bengt_> libnautilus-extension1.list/: setuid sticky directory
[04:40] <eyequeue> bengt_, may i ask the path?
[04:40] <bengt_> bengt@myssie:/var/lib/dpkg/info$ sudo rm -fr !$
[04:40] <Warbo> "sudo update-alternatives --configure usplash" I think will choose bootup/shutdown image
[04:40] <JoseStefan> pestilence: says it on the download page: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/6.06.1/
[04:40] <bengt_> sudo rm -fr libnautilus-extension1.list/
[04:40] <bengt_> Password:
[04:40] <hoehaver> how do I just exit out of root like it tells me to do
[04:40] <bengt_> rm: cannot remove directory `libnautilus-extension1.list/': Operation not permitted
[04:40] <sethk> bengt_, that's not a disk error, that's something the O/S has locked and is using
[04:40] <jikanter> letsgfaud: what desktop environment are you running?
[04:40] <sethk> bengt_, if you really have some need to remove it, you can boot from a live cd, mount the file system, and remove it.
[04:40] <bengt_> this file should be a file and not a directory... should be owned by root, not by a weird owner...
[04:40] <hoehaver> wow. I didn't mean to paste that much...my bad
[04:40] <matthewf> gah.. something definatly ant right ..
[04:40] <paradizelost> bengt_: says you don't have permissions
[04:40] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell bengt_ about paste
[04:40] <letsgfuad> jikanter: fluxbox!
[04:41] <Warbo> sethk: Woah, I didn't think Linux did that (hence the old rm -rf <somewhere I will not say> scenario)
[04:41] <letsgfuad> should i swap over to xfce?
[04:41] <hoehaver> or...o, nvm
[04:41] <hoehaver> how do I exit out or foot??
[04:41] <hoehaver> root*
[04:41] <eyequeue> bengt_, okay, trrrrrry a sudo chmod 777 of that dir
[04:41] <pestilence> JoseStefan, oh that's great :)
[04:41] <bengt_> BlueEagle: Sorry about pasting to much... tried to come up with a small consice sentence...
[04:41] <matthewf> its showing 1024x768 in that sysinfo
[04:41] <jikanter> letsgfaud: oh hmm...
[04:41] <jikanter> yes
[04:41] <Jamminpotato> letsgfuad, xfce is always a ood way to go
[04:41] <letsgfuad> ok ill be back shortly
[04:41] <paradizelost> matthewf: edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the display lines that say 24 to say 16 and restart X
[04:41] <sethk> bengt_, you can do a sudo chown on it, to make it owned by root, and then you'll probably be able to rm it
[04:41] <JoseStefan> pestilence: i believe you need the alternate CD for that, or just do a a regular upgrade using the internet
[04:41] <pestilence> JoseStefan, that doesn't really make sense, since if i installed it from scratch using this cd it would install all the packages that i want to upgrade
[04:41] <h00t> Warbo: I actualy found it, enabled it and ran it... now what .. i can't see anything about making shortcuts
[04:41] <bengt_> sethk: Tried that... do not work...
[04:41] <pestilence> JoseStefan, *sigh*
[04:42] <sethk> bengt_, the ownership didn't change?
[04:42] <pestilence> that will take a while on my slow dsl line :-/
[04:42] <aSt3raL> so i mounted a different directory on the same machine and im copying files across the network right now
[04:42] <Warbo> h00t: OK, apps>nautilus>desktop
[04:42] <andresmujica> hi!!
[04:42] <hoehaver>  5) su
[04:42] <hoehaver> 6) make install
[04:42] <hoehaver> 7) exit (the root environment)
[04:42] <bengt_> sudo... chown: changing ownership of `libnautilus-extension1.list': Operation not permitted
[04:42] <haasteem> kitche, so no luck there either
[04:42] <hoehaver> how do I exit the root inviroment??
[04:42] <pestilence> JoseStefan, thanks, though
[04:42] <Warbo> h00t: (I think it is desktop, maybe something different, but still obvious)
[04:42] <paradizelost> hoehaver: please stop pasting those lines
[04:42] <BlueEagle> hoehaver: logout or exit
[04:42] <jikanter> hoehaver:exit
[04:42] <JoseStefan> pestilence: the desktop (live) cds work completly different, they don't have packages per say, it's like transfering an image
[04:42] <BlueEagle> hoehaver: and !pastebin
[04:42] <andresmujica> anyone can recommend a good firewall solution for ubuntu/kubuntu???  firestarter?  kmyfirewall?  another one??
[04:42] <jikanter> !pastebin
[04:42] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:42] <sethk> bengt_, paste the entire result of ls -l, the entire line for the file
[04:42] <h00t> got it ... found it ... Warbo ... thank you
[04:42] <aSt3raL> i think it might be easier just to set up a new virtual directory for apache
[04:42] <hoehaver> it I type exit the term clses
[04:42] <pestilence> JoseStefan, ah.
[04:42] <Warbo> h00t: There is also this.....
[04:42] <eyequeue> bengt_, you also have both an owner and group on it that are not known, so yes, i suspect you're riht about it screwy
[04:42] <hoehaver> closes*
[04:43] <paradizelost> andresmujica: firestarter
[04:43] <Warbo> !info gtweakui
[04:43] <ubotu> gtweakui: A collection of simple dialogs as a front end to GConf. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.0-2 (dapper), package size 67 kB, installed size 452 kB
[04:43] <aSt3raL> then try and get the /var/etc to work on nfs
[04:43] <brendonjt> hi all
[04:43] <bengt_> d-wSr---wt  2 21791 11934 12288 1964-07-07 08:17 libnautilus-extension1.list
[04:43] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> see ya guys
[04:43] <hoehaver> and why would I use a paste bin just to paste three lines??
[04:43] <pestilence> JoseStefan, so even with the ubuntu cd, you have to have the "alternate install" cd to upgrade?
[04:43] <aSt3raL> er.. /var/www
[04:43] <hoehaver> I wouldn't.
[04:43] <JoseStefan> pestilence: guess so
[04:43] <paradizelost> pestilence: you can't use a desktop cd to upgrade, as it's a livecd
[04:43] <h00t> Warbo: what is this Configuration Editor ... is it kinda like registry in Win
[04:43] <pestilence> JoseStefan, that kinda stinks for people like me, but i guess it works well for most others
[04:43] <sethk> bengt_, it's hard to see how you could have a coherent filename and the rest be, apparently, random.
[04:43] <pestilence> paradizelost, got it.  thanks
[04:43] <jikanter> h00t: sort of
[04:43] <sethk> bengt_, the thing to do in any case is to boot a live cd, run fsck on the file system, then remove it.
[04:44] <Warbo> h00t: A bit, but it is only for GNOME programs, so nothing system level is stored there
[04:44] <bengt_> A lot of the .list files dissapeared... did the bad thing, and copied them from a dapper system to this old breezy system. but this one is caputski...
[04:44] <pestilence> aack.. Need to get 855MB of archives. After unpacking 553MB will be used.
[04:44] <Warbo> h00t: Most of it can be changed with preferences dialogs, especially if you install gtweakui package
[04:44] <pestilence> that's going to take all night :-(
[04:44] <h00t> Warbo: jikanter: so kde doesn't have the same thing
[04:44] <jikanter> umm. I am just less familiar with KDE
[04:44] <sethk> bengt_, yes, but the apparently random uid and gid can't be explained by that
[04:44] <bengt_> sethk: Thanks for the confirmation... I need to get a cd added to this small box then...
[04:44] <JoseStefan> pestilence: you are currently using kubuntu 5.10?
[04:45] <pestilence> JoseStefan, yes
[04:45] <jikanter> I bet you someone else can help you better than I
[04:45] <matthewf> changeing to 16bit didnt do any good
[04:45] <Warbo> KDE has a central control-panel type thing (which I find useful to install fonts)
[04:45] <JoseStefan> pestilence: ok, just wanted to confirm
[04:45] <letsgfuad> ok im back
[04:45] <h00t> thanx guys
[04:45] <bengt_> sethk: Sort of... since I think a lot of the issues were caused by some kind of hd problem... fsck reported loads of problem....
[04:45] <matthewf> its still stuck at 1024x768
[04:45] <aSt3raL> i have been using ubuntu for about a year and i just found out yesterday that ive been using the 386 kernel on a 686 machine
[04:45] <aSt3raL> and the 686 kernel is a lot faster
[04:45] <h00t> btw ... anyone know any good MMO game for linux ... not WoW
[04:45] <Warbo> I'm going to try Realplayer again, and see if I get sound
[04:45] <BigToe> I FEEL TIRED I SHALL SLEEP FUCK THIS SHIT :D
[04:45] <andresmujica> paradizelost: thanks, i've got some issues with firestarter and ppoe, maybe bad config? do you know if the both of them work well??
[04:46] <letsgfuad> jikuty: hey im back, so apt-get install automount wont work
[04:46] <eyequeue> !language
[04:46] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:46] <aSt3raL> ubuntu needs to make updating the kernel to match your cpu more known
[04:46] <paradizelost> andresmujica: i've been using firestarter for a long time, but i haven't tried using it w/ pppoe
[04:46] <sethk> bengt_, that fits with random uid and gid.  but, when you ran fsck, did you fix the errors?
[04:46] <aSt3raL> i bet half the ubuntu pc users out there are using the slower 386 kernel without realizing it
[04:46] <bengt_> sethk: yes, answered yes on all... also did a shutdown -F, and reboot, and it came up as it should.
[04:47] <crimsun> aSt3raL: we've all but blown that theory out of the water.
[04:47] <paradizelost> matthewf: if you do an lsmod|grep nvidia does it show anything?
[04:47] <sethk> bengt_, if you rerun fsck, then, it reports no errors (run with -f, meaning check it even if it was normally shut down)?
[04:47] <aSt3raL> you mean there are a lot of ppl doing it?
[04:47] <suckafoo> I'm trying to install that latest version of Ubuntu 64 when the desktop should come up I get a squished illegible version that appears like the whole screen squished to like 50pixels, but the mouse works great! Any idea whats going wrong?
[04:47] <bengt_> sethk: when the disk is mounted?
[04:47] <crimsun> aSt3raL: yep, and installing -686/-k7 doesn't make noticeable difference in many tasks.
[04:47] <aSt3raL> thats why im saying ubuntu needs to put something on their website or something
[04:47] <bengt_> sethk: I thought shutdown -F, would force a fsck to be done on next reboot
[04:48] <jikanter> letsfgaud: go to this link and I will walk you through it
[04:48] <eyequeue> crimsun, does that info come from popcon?
[04:48] <letsgfuad> anyone know how i can get my music to play from my external HD... the pictures on it can be seen but not the music...

[04:48] <aSt3raL> i can notice it
[04:48] <crimsun> aSt3raL: in fact, we're going to -generic for edgy
[04:48] <pestilence> suckafoo, the mouse will move over the entire screen?
[04:48] <jikanter> letsfgaud:ok?
[04:48] <aSt3raL> for one the machine boots up about 5-10 seconds faster
[04:48] <suckafoo> yup... works fine...
[04:48] <aSt3raL> whats -generic?
[04:48] <letsgfuad> so i set my sound to the SB PCI512 {CT4790] 
[04:48] <matthewf> paradizelost: yes it does
[04:48] <eyequeue> crimsun, i'm moderately curious about the info that popcon would provide, in total
[04:48] <pestilence> suckafoo, what happens when you log in?
[04:48] <letsgfuad> thats what my sound card is so uhh it must be a different problem
[04:49] <paradizelost> matthewf: if you do an       glxinfo
[04:49] <paradizelost> matthewf: at the top does it say Direct Rendering: YEs
[04:49] <paradizelost> ??
[04:49] <aSt3raL> -generic is more so than 386?
[04:49] <matthewf> paradizelost: yes it does...basicly for all intents and purposes this should be working but it isnt ...
[04:49] <suckafoo> no log in happens, it goes through the boot screen fine, loading kernel, etc... then when I should see the live CD desktop and be able to click the install icon I get that squished up screen
[04:50] <jikanter> letsfgaud: right click on my name and click private chat
[04:50] <aSt3raL> how much benefit is there to compiling a kernel if im running 686?
[04:50] <Warbo> Help I have no sound in Realplayer!
[04:50] <pestilence> suckafoo, oh...
[04:50] <crimsun> aSt3raL: it's -386
[04:50] <paradizelost> matthewf: did you change the 24 to 16?
[04:50] <JoseStefan> i thought generic was for 64-bit ?
[04:50] <Warbo> aSt3raL: There is already a 686 kernel
[04:50] <pestilence> suckafoo, try using the alternate install cd...
[04:50] <matthewf> paradizelost: yep i did that
[04:50] <crimsun> aSt3raL: -686 and -k7 are going the route of the dodo
[04:51] <matthewf> paradizelost: is it worth it to rebuilt an xorg.conf ?
[04:51] <pestilence> suckafoo, or you could try to fix the live cd by hitting ctrl+alt+f1 and editing /etc/X11/Xorg.conf
[04:51] <matthewf> rebuild rather
[04:51] <Warbo> crimsun: Yeah, since I'm lovin' the SMP capabilities of -386.....
[04:51] <aSt3raL> right but if im using the 686 kernel, would i benefit from compiling a kernel specific for my machine?
[04:51] <paradizelost> matthewf: can't hurt
[04:51] <suckafoo> I think I might be using it. I used the .torrent
[04:51] <jikanter> Warbo: hit control+alt-f1
[04:51] <JoseStefan> aSt3raL, it's not worth it
[04:51] <suckafoo> I'll try to get a copy of both to see if it's any different
[04:51] <pestilence> suckafoo, the alternate install cd uses the old style of installer -- no desktop
[04:52] <suckafoo> oh
[04:52] <crimsun> aSt3raL: if you honestly believe so, then do it.
[04:52] <suckafoo> that might be better
[04:52] <blocky> anybody know how to enable vertical sync in xine
[04:52] <Warbo> aSt3raL: Most of the stuff is done as modules anyway, so you could blacklist modules you don't want to load (like maybe PCMCIA on a desktop system)
[04:52] <barata> how to convert ape files to mp3 in linux?
[04:52] <aSt3raL> i was just asking
[04:52] <blocky> or do I need to it in GDM or X
[04:52] <barata> anybody did it before?
[04:52] <suckafoo> or I might just get a screwed up REAL desktop. We'll see. Thanks for the help.
[04:52] <letsgfuad> jikanter: it wont let me do anything besides paste your name
[04:52] <jikanter> ok
[04:52] <letsgfuad> jikanter: im using irrsi in terminal
[04:52] <jikanter> ok
[04:52] <brendonjt> suckafoo: and using the alt is also less resource hungry as well
[04:52] <JoseStefan> i still think the 686/k7 kernels are better than the 386 linux
[04:53] <Warbo> jikanter: If I do then Realplayer will probably lose my video too, and I have been performing mouse gymnastics to display anything at all
[04:53] <letsgfuad> jikanter: join #helpfuad
[04:53] <barata> DID ANYBODY EVER CONVERT OR DEAL WITH APE FILE IN MUSIC? HOW TO CONVERT IT TO MP3? WHAT PLAYER IS TO USE?
[04:53] <Warbo> !caps > barata
[04:53] <Warbo> barata: Why the hell use a player to convert? I would set up a gstreamer pipeline
[04:53] <barata> sorry
[04:54] <pestilence> barata, i think so.
[04:54] <Warbo> That is pretty advanced though

[04:54] <ladydoor> barata: yes, somebody did, sometime
[04:54] <pharcvde> has anyone used a media player with a slvr phone?
[04:54] <barata> uboty: so soundconverter also read ape file?
[04:54] <Warbo> barata: It uses Gstreamer, so yes
[04:54] <ladydoor> barata: ubotu is a bot
[04:55] <barata> why streamer? I've got the file do not need streaming
[04:55] <lauren_> hi
[04:55] <lauren_> im new
[04:55] <barata> hi lauren
[04:55] <paradizelost> !ask
[04:55] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:55] <lauren_> hey
[04:55] <Warbo> Can someone please offer advice for getting sound in Realplayer? I tried "killall esd" already, and "fuser /dev/dsp" says nothing
[04:55] <barata> !answer
[04:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about answer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <lauren_> no 1 ever says hi to me when i say i in a chat room lol
[04:56] <nuxord> hello
 barata: It uses Gstreamer, so yes ---> why does it even need gstreamer?
[04:56] <barata> let me google
[04:56] <Warbo> barata: Need? What does that mean? Gstreamer does everything, so NOT using it would be stupid
[04:56] <brendonjt> lauren_:hi how is ya day going?
[04:57] <eyequeue> lauren_, "HI" :)
[04:57] <lauren_> hi
 barata: Need? What does that mean? Gstreamer does everything, so NOT using it would be stupid --> Im an xmms fanatics, but you're right
[04:57] <^Down> How do I get the "deb" command to work in terminal?
[04:57] <barata> let me install gstreamer & try
[04:57] <pestilence> barata, here's how i did it:   http://gimpel.gi.funpic.de/wiki/index.php?title=Howto:convert_ape_to_wav/mp3/ogg_on_Linux
[04:58] <Warbo> barata: It uses 0.8 I htink, so get those plugins
[04:58] <hoehaver> if my su password isn't my sudo pass or my password(which is also the sudo pass)
[04:58] <Warbo> *think
[04:58] <hoehaver> what would the se pass be??
[04:58] <pestilence> barata, worked like a charm.
[04:58] <hoehaver> su*
[04:58] <Warbo> hoehaver: su is disabled for none root users. Use sudo
[04:58] <shinta42> can anyone help me with the nvidia installation script Envy? it compiled the module, but then says "unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'.
[04:58] <barata> still installing
[04:59] <Xenguy> ^Down: what do you wnat to do tho?
[04:59] <barata> there is gstreamer 0.10 now
[04:59] <pestilence> shinta42, try running sudo depmod -a
[04:59] <Warbo> barata: Yes, but that app doesn't use it yet
[05:00] <Warbo> And neither does Thoggen or Istanbul
[05:00] <twisted> hey, anyone happen to know if there's a .deb for the Firefox 2 beta 2?
[05:00] <barata> which plugin works with ape file?
[05:00] <ladydoor> ;
[05:00] <ladydoor> sorry

[05:00] <shinta42> pestilence:does it has to do with things i shouldn't/should add in my kernel?
[05:00] <Xenguy> Warbo: gross windows software = wink (?)
[05:00] <Warbo> Xenguy: What?
[05:00] <cee-jay> A local PC repairman told me today that Ubuntu somehow swapped my power button with escape key.  I'm skeptical that any OS could mess with key mapping (other than within the shell).  Is this possible at all??
[05:00] <shinta42> pestilence:i didn't compile the framebuffer server
[05:00] <Xenguy> Warbo: under wine
[05:01] <Warbo> Xenguy: WINE runs some WIndows software, yes
[05:01] <Xenguy> Warbo: try running 'wink' under 'wine'
[05:01] <Xenguy> yes
[05:01] <twisted> cee-jay: u mean the hardware power button?
[05:01] <brendonjt> cee-jay: umm i doubt that very much
[05:01] <Warbo> Xenguy: Is that the screencapture tool?
[05:01] <cee-jay> yeah the HW power button
[05:01] <twisted> cee-jay: impossible
[05:01] <Xenguy> Warbo: yeah
[05:01] <Warbo> Xenguy: I have the Linux version anyway
[05:02] <twisted> cee-jay: the hw power button is attached strait to ur mainboard
[05:02] <Warbo> (and I don't like it)
[05:02] <HBK> hello
[05:02] <Xenguy> Warbo: I have no experience, it's just a lead I read about
[05:02] <twisted> it doesn't go through software first
[05:02] <cee-jay> i thought so
[05:02] <_MoNkAbAnG_> im back
[05:02] <_MoNkAbAnG_> but new name
[05:02] <pestilence> shinta42, depmod -a just builds the dependencies for newly installed modules
[05:02] <HBK> I need help on setting up Ubuntu
[05:02] <_MoNkAbAnG_> its lauren
[05:02] <Xenguy> Warbo: I wasn't aware that there was a linux version
[05:02] <Warbo> XVidCap and PyVNC2SWF are the best I have found
[05:02] <twisted> cee-jay: however, you can bind Esc to do shutdown...
[05:02] <shinta42> pestilence: okay i typed it...nothing happened
[05:02] <brendonjt> twisted:  i think that computer tech who told him that needs to go back to school
[05:02] <_MoNkAbAnG_> does anyone know a guy named kash
[05:02] <hoehaver> I need some help....
[05:02] <twisted> werd
[05:02] <HBK> hello
[05:02] <Hexidigital> anyone who has installed the aptitude version of eggdrop know where the eggdrop.conf files are kept? i cannot find them
[05:02] <cee-jay> twisted:  yeah but only shutdown, not power on right?
[05:02] <matthewf> its still not working ..... arrrg
[05:03] <brendonjt> hbk:  hi there
[05:03] <pestilence> shinta42, and if you try to modprobe the module again?
[05:03] <HBK> hey bren
[05:03] <ladydoor> Hexidigital: whereis eggdrop
[05:03] <HBK> I need help on setting up Ubuntu
[05:03] <Hexidigital> ladydoor, didn't work
[05:03] <_MoNkAbAnG_> brb
[05:03] <shinta42> pestilence: not found
[05:03] <hoehaver> im unstalling gaim v v and im almost done with the steps. but step 7 says to exit (root enviroment)
[05:03] <Warbo> I updated to the latest version of Realplayer (realplay package) but sound isn't working in it
[05:03] <hoehaver> how do I do this.
[05:03] <brendonjt> hbk:  fire away
[05:03] <Xenguy> Warbo: yawn
[05:03] <twisted> cee-jay: yup, like I said, hw button can only power on and off
[05:03] <hoehaver> I can't type exit b/c then it will close the term
[05:03] <pestilence> shinta42, did the module get installed in /lib/modules/(your kernel version)?
[05:03] <HBK> I got my CD delivered of Ubuntu and Kubuntu....
[05:03] <ladydoor> Hexidigital: ah, you'll probably need to wait until slocate (the locate database) updates itsel
[05:03] <barata> I've got gstreamer but why I cannot run it?
[05:03] <twisted> or you need equipment that's attached strait into the hardware
[05:03] <hoehaver> I tried exit root and that closed the term aswell
[05:03] <HBK> I've never used Linux
[05:04] <pestilence> shinta42, find /lib/modules/ -name "nvidia*"
[05:04] <Hexidigital> ladydoor, can i do that manually?
[05:04] <HBK> I have Via motherboard and Nvidia graphics card
[05:04] <cee-jay> cool.  i'll tell him "twisted said so"  :D  thanks again!
[05:04] <barata> it doesn't even show! do I need another app? is gstreamer only for background support/daemon?
[05:04] <atsugnam> Hexidigital, you can update the locate db with updatedb
[05:04] <twisted> kewl
[05:04] <ladydoor> Hexidigital: i dunno. you might could look in /usr/share/eggdrop or /usr/share/doc/eggdrop
[05:04] <Warbo> hoehaver: Are you sure it didn't say "chroot"? Either way, Ctrl-D usually means exit
[05:04] <brendonjt> hbk:  yip  same  i have via chipset mobo as well
[05:04] <Hexidigital> atsugnam, ladydoor , thank you both
[05:04] <atsugnam> then use locate 'filename'
[05:04] <HBK> I got the drivers of both 64-bit with AMD s754 2800+ processor
[05:04] <^Down> I need some help installing a program called MoBlock. When I try to install it, I get a message "moblock-nfq: Depends: lsb-base (>= 3.0-3) but 3.0-1ubuntu8 is to be installed". How would I be able to fix that
[05:04] <ladydoor> Hexidigital: which is where a lot of stuff goes
[05:04] <matthewf> Ok so this is all not working for seemingly no reason at all and it is annoying me
[05:04] <ladydoor> barata: gstreamer is a command-line program
[05:05] <HBK> my chipset and model no. of mobo - K8M800 & K8MM-V
[05:05] <Warbo> Gstreamer is a framework
[05:05] <ladydoor> barata: unless you install a frontend
[05:05] <godtvisk1n> Why doesn't gnomebaker burn .oggs by default?
[05:05] <lgc_> eyequeue, I got the PDA up and running. Are you familiar with Evolution?
[05:05] <brendonjt> hbk: yip  wots the problem?
[05:05] <shinta42> pestilence:its not in my current kernel dir but are in the default cd installation kernel ver dir
[05:05] <ladydoor> godtvisk1n: are you root?
[05:05] <HBK> I have a spare HDD shall I install Ubuntu in it or Kubuntu?
[05:05] <hoehaver> warbo  "exit (the root environment) "
[05:05] <godtvisk1n> ladydoor: no
[05:05] <ladydoor> godtvisk1n: you need to be to burn a cd....
[05:05] <matthewf> HBK: VIA stuff works out of the box usualy ..so shouldnt have any problems there
[05:05] <atsugnam> HBK, why not both?
[05:05] <pestilence> shinta42, that probably explains it, you built against and installed into the wrong kernel tree
[05:05] <hoehaver> the after I do that im sopost to type  gst-register
[05:05] <brendonjt> hbk: it is personal choice,  but i would go with ubuntu
[05:05] <godtvisk1n> ladydoor: i have burned a cd without being root before
[05:06] <barata> ladydoor: how to call it?
[05:06] <HBK> can I install it on a USB HDD? I have a USB enclosure
[05:06] <ladydoor> godtvisk1n: really? weird
[05:06] <godtvisk1n> ladydoor: it is just oggs that say i don't have a plugin for it
[05:06] <Warbo> HBK: That is up to you. Choose whichever, but I would recommend using GNOME and KDE (the only difference between Ubuntu and Kubuntu) eventually, to see which you prefer
[05:06] <shinta42> pestilence: i ran envy script
[05:06] <ladydoor> barata: don't know. i don't use it
[05:06] <shinta42> pestilence: so what should i do?
[05:06] <hoehaver> every time I type gst-register it says command not found
[05:06] <Warbo> HBK: Ubuntu installs to USB fine
[05:06] <pestilence> shinta42, ok, well envy did it then ;)
[05:06] <Warbo> HBK: Can your PC boot from USB?
[05:06] <hoehaver> so im not doing something right....like exiting the root inviroment
[05:06] <shinta42> pestilence: just move those nvidia* files?
[05:06] <ladydoor> godtvisk1n: ah. weird. do you have libvorbis installed?
[05:06] <barata> I'm trying totem now
[05:06] <cafuego> You need to register for the GST with the tax office, not in Ubuntu.
[05:06] <HBK> I saw that you can convert Ubuntu to Kubuntu with the KDE Package
[05:06] <brendonjt> hbk: but my advice would be use it as a live cd first, and see how you like it before installing it
[05:06] <pestilence> shinta42, why don't you apt-get remove the obsolete kernel & headers
[05:06] <HBK> Yes my PC boots from USB
[05:06] <^Down> I need some help installing a program called MoBlock. When I try to install it, I get a message "moblock-nfq: Depends: lsb-base (>= 3.0-3) but 3.0-1ubuntu8 is to be installed". How would I be able to fix that
[05:06] <TheGame> hbk nice name
[05:06] <pestilence> shinta42, moving the modules probably won't work, but you can try
[05:07] <atsugnam> hbk, you can iunstall kubuntu using aptitude
[05:07] <Warbo> HBK: OK, just that it gets complicated if it doesn't
[05:07] <minerale> I'm lost at this: when using gnome all the fonts are bigger, ie if I start gnome and use the terminal at font size 9, awhen I switch to fluxbox or any other window manager I have to swithc the font to 10 for it to display the same, fonts unger the default gnome are bigger in ubuntu... anyone noticed this ?
[05:07] <HBK> Yes one thing I want to know here is this easy?
[05:07] <Bot_Builder> what do you guys think of gentoo?
[05:07] <matthewf> anyone care to offer any other ideas as to why im stuck in 1024x768 ?
[05:07] <gentoo> i hope you like me
[05:07] <Bot_Builder> looks pretty sweet to me
[05:07] <gentoo> !!
[05:07] <Warbo> HBK: Try it and you will see that it is REALLY easy
[05:07] <gentoo>  thanks
[05:07] <HBK> I never touched Linux ever I used XP as always
[05:07] <cliffd> Bot_Builder: its a second job. I just moved from gentoo
[05:07] <shinta42> pestilence:i have..like 6 or 7 kernel vers...very messy right
[05:07] <Bot_Builder> lol
[05:07] <gentoo> you were here?
[05:07] <godtvisk1n> ladydoor: if i can play oggs, do i have it installed?
[05:07] <gentoo> didnt notice
[05:07] <pestilence> shinta42, do you need all of them?
[05:07] <HBK> I don't know much command line programs either
[05:07] <barata> matthewf> anyone care to offer any other ideas as to why im stuck in 1024x768 ? ---> what else can your screen do?
[05:07] <shinta42> pestilence: no....
[05:07] <shinta42> pestilence:how to remove?
[05:07] <Warbo> HBK: So?
[05:07] <Xenguy> HBK: start
[05:07] <barata> 1280x800?
[05:07] <pestilence> shinta42, there has to be some way to tell envy to use your current version
[05:07] <brendonjt> hbk: it is easy  most if it is all x anyway
[05:08] <HBK> will I be lost somewhere? is it difficult to work on Ubuntu?
[05:08] <brendonjt> hbk: it is very user friendly
[05:08] <shinta42> pestilence: ./envy is the way to run it..i dunno sigh
[05:08] <matthewf> barata: its native res is 1280x1024@75hz
[05:08] <pestilence> well, determine the kernel names, and apt-get remove them ;)
[05:08] <ladydoor> godtvisk1n: i guess so. huh. i don't know :-(
[05:08] <Bot_Builder> Would I miss much from ubuntu moving to gentoo?
[05:08] <brendonjt> hbk: nope
[05:08] <atsugnam> HBK, KDE is more "like" windows in layout than gnome, but barring some menu placements it's all pretty much the same to start using
[05:08] <Xenguy> feedback
[05:08] <shinta42> pestilence: also need to run again on the headers?
[05:08] <HBK> I hear that you have to do everything by giving commands in the command prompt, is this true?
[05:08] <D-Man`> I want to grep a file and *IF* I find an entry then - and - only - then have the results mailed to an e-mail.... using cron     can someone help me with the syntax?
[05:08] <pestilence> shinta42, might as well, they just take up space if you aren't using that kernel
[05:08] <atsugnam> HBK, no
[05:08] <brendonjt> hbk: no
[05:08] <shinta42> pestilence:okay..~~~
[05:08] <Xenguy> HBK: not at all
[05:08] <matthewf> Bot_Builder: Gentoo is for the hardcore heh
[05:08] <Warbo> HBK: Not at all. You may see many command-line instructions given in here, but that is a) command-line is often much quicker to use than GUI and b) It is easier to type a command in a text-based chat than type out a deskcription of a GUI
[05:08] <_MoNkAbAnG_> hey again
[05:08] <Xenguy> HBK: but it helps sometimes :-)
[05:09] <pestilence> shinta42, apt should warn you severly if you try to remove the running kernel, so you shouldn't worry too much about doing that
[05:09] <shinta42> pestilence:ok
[05:09] <HBK> Have any of y'all used Freespire or Linspire it has Click and Run thingy which is like windoze
[05:09] <Bot_Builder> matthewf - well, I can code...
[05:09] <barata> matthewf: install 915resolution
[05:09] <Warbo> HBK: Click 'n' Run is NOTHING like WIndows
[05:09] <pestilence> HBK, i think you want #linspire.
[05:09] <atsugnam> HBK, Ubuntu has Synaptics package manager
[05:09] <Xenguy> HBK: hype
[05:09] <barata> or 8-something-resolution
[05:09] <atsugnam> used to install packages
[05:09] <HBK> I don't know I'm all set to install Ubuntu and all but there is something in the back of my head saying no, dunno why
[05:09] <Xenguy> HBK: hype = linspire etc.
[05:09] <shinta42> pestilence:i will look for u in a sec
[05:09] <matthewf> Bot_Builder: Gentoo is pretty much a roll your own disto type deal
[05:09] <barata> research what your monitor screen needs
[05:09] <Warbo> With Windows you need to get (usually by paying for) each bit of software seperately from different places
[05:10] <pestilence> shinta42, k.
[05:10] <gentoo> stop highlighting me
[05:10] <pestilence> HBK, so run the livecd and see if you like it
[05:10] <barata> matthewf: google 915resolution
[05:10] <brendonjt> hbk: give it a shot you will not be disappointed either
[05:10] <Bot_Builder> gentoo - then change your name...
[05:10] <HBK> I see that you can also run games in Linux with wine and cedega
[05:10] <Warbo> In Linux you can get it all from one place, whether that is Click 'n' run or Synaptic
[05:10] <pestilence> HBK, it's a "try it before you buy it" feature
[05:10] <brendonjt> hbk: sure can
[05:10] <HBK> Okay if I run the Live CD now
[05:10] <_MoNkAbAnG_> im new to lynix explain all this to me
[05:10] <HBK> do I need the drivers?
[05:10] <barata> matthewf: mine works with 915resolution but yours might need 817resolution
[05:10] <HBK> or it will work?
[05:10] <matthewf> barata: im on NV video.. not intel
[05:10] <Xenguy> _MoNkAbAnG_: explain what?
[05:10] <pestilence> HBK, it will work on most computers without any trouble
[05:10] <Warbo> HBK: NOt usually
[05:10] <_MoNkAbAnG_> like what r yall talking about
[05:10] <barata> oh ... I don't matthewf
[05:11] <barata> oh ... I don't know matthewf
[05:11] <brendonjt> hbk: that is why  you run the live cd to see what driver s you need and if you like it
[05:11] <Warbo> HBK: What graphics card do you have?
[05:11] <barata> I dont have NV video
[05:11] <_MoNkAbAnG_> im so confused i dont know this comp talk
[05:11] <Bot_Builder> I'm gonna try gentoo then.  I can always install ubuntu if it gets frustrating
[05:11] <_MoNkAbAnG_> lol
[05:11] <HBK> I have AGP BFG-Tech GeForce 6800 OC
[05:11] <Xenguy> _MoNkAbAnG_: linux rocks, sit back, relax, and enjoy ... :-)
[05:11] <pestilence> Bot_Builder, that shouldn't take long.
[05:11] <matthewf> Bot_Builder: it takes alot of time
[05:11] <_MoNkAbAnG_> ok thanks
[05:11] <matthewf> Bot_Builder:  and alot of typeing heh
[05:11] <Bot_Builder> lol, we'll see
[05:11] <pestilence> Bot_Builder, get about 1/4 the way through compiling gcc, glibc, xorg, and you'll come crawling back
[05:12] <Warbo> HBK: OK. That will work fine straight away, but it may go slow for 3D without a non-Free driver. But you can install that easily after you have installed Ubuntu from Synaptic package manager
[05:12] <Xenguy> .oO(lovely rita)
[05:12] <_MoNkAbAnG_> ill try to act like i know what yall are saying
[05:12] <HBK> which looks closer to windoze look n' feel wise? Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[05:12] <Warbo> I say Kununtu
[05:12] <Warbo> *Kubuntu
[05:12] <basbryan> kubuntu
[05:12] <pestilence> HBK, i say kubuntu too
[05:12] <smwon> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. How do I do this?
[05:12] <Warbo> But I have found very XP-like themes for GNOME
[05:12] <_MoNkAbAnG_> away
[05:12] <pestilence> smwon, open up a terminal
[05:12] <Bot_Builder> alright... I guess I'll stick with ubuntu.
[05:12] <JoseStefan> funny, i say ubuntu
[05:12] <smwon> ok
[05:12] <ladydoor> smwon: open a terminal and do it
[05:12] <_MoNkAbAnG_> ok
[05:12] <pestilence> smwon, type "sudo apt-get install -f"
[05:12] <HBK> what about nUbuntu, Xubuntu and edubuntu! I'm confused :(
[05:12] <matthewf> is there anyware other then x.org that stores display resolution settings ?
[05:13] <smwon> hold on
[05:13] <^Down> Is there a command to list all programs running?
[05:13] <brendonjt> hbk: i haven't used kde  for along time  i switched to gnoe as i have found kde to bloated
[05:13] <atsugnam> HBK, the diff distros offer different features
[05:13] <pestilence> HBK, just use kubuntu.  you'll like it
[05:13] <Xenguy> HBK: different slices of the same entity :-)
[05:13] <ladydoor> HBK: nUbuntu?
[05:13] <matthewf> xorg.conf tather
[05:13] <Warbo> HBK: You don't want them. nUbuntu is for network testing, Edubuntu is for little kids and Xubuntu is for slow computers
[05:13] <JoseStefan> i find KDE Konfusing
[05:13] <barata> guys, my totem doesnt play ape file ... what to do?
[05:13] <_MoNkAbAnG_> oh my bro my know a command
[05:13] <matthewf> rather
[05:13] <barata> what is the plugin?
[05:13] <HBK> yes nUbuntu.com
[05:13] <_MoNkAbAnG_> but hes sleepig
[05:13] <HBK> nubuntu.org
[05:13] <_MoNkAbAnG_> sleeping
[05:13] <pestilence> barata, convert it using MAC to wav, then convert it to ogg
[05:13] <HBK> Ubuntu is based on the Drapper Drake Distro, right?
[05:13] <pestilence> using that link i sent you
[05:14] <barata> pestilence, I dont have MAC
[05:14] <JoseStefan> HBK, you should be fin with Ubuntu
[05:14] <pestilence> barata, so install it
[05:14] <JoseStefan> fine*
[05:14] <atsugnam> HBK, Dapper Drake is the name of the current release version
[05:14] <interstellar_ove> mebbe someone can help me out here? - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1448081#post1448081
[05:14] <Xenguy> HBK: that's the latest version
[05:14] <ladydoor> HBK: errr...dapper drake is the latest release of ubuntu
[05:14] <HBK> I see
[05:14] <barata> is MAC an app?
[05:14] <pestilence> barata, http://gimpel.gi.funpic.de/wiki/index.php?title=Howto:convert_ape_to_wav/mp3/ogg_on_Linux
[05:14] <cee-jay> ubuntu is more like classic windows than XP, HBK; Kubuntu is more flashy but annoying to some...
[05:14] <cafuego> Just open it in Audacity and save it as Ogg.
[05:14] <Xenguy> HBK: er, stable version
[05:14] <HBK> lol I'm a newbie just learning
[05:14] <pestilence> barata, there is a howto.  click it.
[05:14] <brendonjt> hbk: dapper  is just this version  of ubuntu
[05:14] <barata> okey, thanks pestilence
[05:14] <_MoNkAbAnG_> i miss windows
[05:14] <foglight> HBK: each release has a codename, like debian does.
[05:14] <HBK> I see
[05:14] <pestilence> _MoNkAbAnG_, install vmware server, it's free.
[05:14] <atsugnam> 5.1 was "Breezy Badger"
[05:14] <_MoNkAbAnG_> it was fun
[05:14] <brendonjt> hbk: ubuntu  is based around debian
[05:14] <JoseStefan> HKB, you'll be looking for v6.06.1
[05:14] <Warbo> If you want Win98 look then ANYTHING can do that. KDE, GNOME, XFCE, etc.
[05:14] <godtvisk1n> How do I get gnomebaker to burt .ogg files?
[05:14] <HBK> okay I will give Ubuntu a shot but what other distro do y'all recommend?
[05:14] <foglight> next is Edgy Eft
[05:15] <Xenguy> we hope you have enjoyed the show
[05:15] <matthewf> im gonna start hurting little fluffy animals in a minute
[05:15] <Warbo> HBK: Erm... Ubuntu
[05:15] <_MoNkAbAnG_> pestilence how do i do tha
[05:15] <foglight> HBK: only Ubuntu.
[05:15] <_MoNkAbAnG_> t
[05:15] <brendonjt> hbk: ubuntu
[05:15] <basbryan> ubuntu
[05:15] <atsugnam>  HBK ubuntu twice?
[05:15] <pestilence> _MoNkAbAnG_, use the google
[05:15] <brendonjt> hbk: only ubuntu
[05:15] <_MoNkAbAnG_> ok
[05:15] <HBK> have y'all tried Suse,Blag Blag, Zen Walk and Ark
[05:15] <HBK> are they any good?
[05:15] <pestilence> _MoNkAbAnG_, there is a howto on ubuntuforums.org
[05:15] <Warbo> HBK: Well, I hear that Suse is good, and Fedora. Other than that I don't really know of ones on-par with Ubuntu
[05:15] <HBK> See sorry for troubling you all
[05:15] <HBK> but
[05:15] <atsugnam> it is, apparently, the most popular distro around now
[05:15] <HBK> all I want is just click and run thingy like windoze
[05:15] <ladydoor> HBK: it's all a matter of opinion
[05:15] <atsugnam> anything to being another into the fold ;)
[05:15] <atsugnam> bring rather
[05:15] <ladydoor> HBK: ubuntu's good for that
[05:15] <brendonjt> hbk: have a crack at ubuntu  you will like it
[05:16] <pestilence> HBK, install kubuntu.  that's what you want.
[05:16] <matthewf> HBK: i used SUSE a few years ago .. Yast = godlike hehe
[05:16] <Xenguy> I read the news today oh boy
[05:16] <pestilence> or ubuntu.
[05:16] <smwon> ok I typed sudo apt-get install -f
[05:16] <viator> ubuntu/debian have thos biggest repos
[05:16] <pestilence> they are both good.
[05:16] <viator> most packages available
[05:16] <HBK> Okay one more thing please...
[05:16] <foglight> what is the installer for non-free pacakges?
[05:16] <foglight> starts with an A
[05:16] <Xenguy> I saw the photograph
[05:16] <_MoNkAbAnG_> i will later
[05:16] <atsugnam> HBK, use the live cd first so you can see what it looks like, and then install if you like....
[05:16] <pestilence> !tell foglight about repositories
[05:16] <barata> pestilence: THANK YOU .... do you happen to know a player for ape too?
[05:16] <viator> ya dont need a special installer for nonfree things
[05:16] <viator> lol
[05:17] <pestilence> barata, no.  i just convert em
[05:17] <barata> okey
[05:17] <Warbo> HBK: What do you mean by "click 'n' run"? Do you mean go to computer store, buy software, get it home, put CD in, click setup.exe, go through wizard, reboot, run program? Linux doesn't do that. Linux does click software, it downloads and installs itself with no reboot needed, then run it if you want
[05:17] <bengt_> Hi - managed to boot up on a cd (edgy knopp1), did a fsck on /dev/hdc1, mounted /dev/hdc1 on /mnt, tried to rm, chmod, chown /mnt/var/lib/dpk/inof/libnautilus-extensions.list    but only get's Operation not permitted.
[05:17] <brendonjt> hbk: i agree with atsugnam
[05:17] <HBK> I use this IP hider in Windoze which I need like a lot I know there is tor for Linux but I use this sockscap also which is nice, so can you run that in Ubuntu?
[05:17] <foglight> no there is a special installer
[05:17] <_MoNkAbAnG_> so is lynix better then windows i mean for real no opinoins
[05:17] <pestilence> HBK, you can run tor in ubuntu
[05:17] <Warbo> HBK: TOR will REALLY slow down your surfing
[05:18] <interstellar_ove> yes
[05:18] <foglight> don't !tell me any of your infobot notes anymore, thanks.
[05:18] <subpar> _MoNkAbAnG_: well in the end it's an opinion
[05:18] <atsugnam> _MoNkAbAnG_, that is a really, really big question.... not easy to answer
[05:18] <ladydoor> _MoNkAbAnG_: lol...that's *all* opinion. and for one thing, it's spelled "linux"
[05:18] <npodges> _MoNkAbAnG_:  you might as well ask which religion is best
[05:18] <HBK> Yes but what about using other known IP proxies which program do I use for that?
[05:18] <Warbo> TOR not only uses a different IP address, it encrypts your data both ways, and sends it all on a merry journey through Internet Town
[05:18] <interstellar_ove> the actual os is much better as far as stability and resource management goes
[05:18] <ladydoor> foglight: there really isn't. you need to enable the multiverse repository
[05:18] <_MoNkAbAnG_> thanks for your answers
[05:18] <subpar> _MoNkAbAnG_: but if you don't really like proprietary software, like the idea of a free os, a great help community, and learn more about using your computer, then yes :)
[05:18] <foglight> thre really is.
[05:18] <_MoNkAbAnG_> i dont know any of this stuff
[05:18] <matthewf> so.. looks like im at a dead end with this display isue
[05:19] <ladydoor> foglight: are you talking about automatix?
[05:19] <atsugnam> interstellar_ove, thats a yes and a no..... I still can't get nvidia drivers or wpa support to work under ubuntu
[05:19] <interstellar_ove> yeah, i tried tor once
[05:19] <interstellar_ove> it slowed my internet down to a crawl
[05:19] <foglight> yes
[05:19] <foglight> that
[05:19] <HBK> are there any P2P apps for Linux? and torrent clients?
[05:19] <pestilence> HBK, yes.
[05:19] <atsugnam> but thaey have been rockin for a long time under xp.....
[05:19] <ladydoor> foglight: that's not nonfree software in *general*, just specific packages
[05:19] <foglight> HBK: get automatix
[05:19] <Warbo> Bittorrent comes installed in Ubuntu by default
[05:19] <ajhtiredwolf_> hey
[05:19] <ladydoor> HBK: you might check out ldcpp
[05:19] <subpar> _MoNkAbAnG_: you don't even have to install it to try it.. you can download the ubuntu cd off the website
[05:19] <ladydoor> HBK: and bittornado
[05:19] <HBK> wow! by default!
[05:19] <|thunder> hey everyone, i read somewhere the other day that you can edit a firefox file that contains the flash version your using, It said you could change it from 7 to 9 and get most of the flash9 site working. I seem to have lost the link and can't remember where I read it. Is any of this familiar to anyone?
[05:19] <interstellar_ove> frostwire - limewire for linux
[05:19] <subpar> and run it from your CD-Rom and try it out first
[05:19] <Warbo> !info gtk-gnutella
[05:19] <_MoNkAbAnG_> brb
[05:19] <npodges> hbk, you can get limewire or the open source frostwire

[05:20] <Warbo> There are loads
[05:20] <pestilence> |thunder, yes...
[05:20] <interstellar_ove> i'd go for frostwire
[05:20] <ajhtiredwolf_> i just got ubuntu (love it btw) are tehre any tutorials for getting things to install with firefox? Like mplayer and flash and what not, and installing codecs for mplayer
[05:20] <pestilence> |thunder, it was on digg.  search there
[05:20] <smwon> what do I do after sudo apt-get install -f
[05:20] <_MoNkAbAnG_> i have six boxes of the cds lol
[05:20] <pestilence> smwon, it didn't fix your problem?
[05:20] <HBK> okay everyone many thanks for the help I will put in Ubuntu and Kubuntu Live CD's and see which looks better
[05:20] <Warbo> !restricted > ajhtiredwolf_
[05:20] <npodges> !info automatix
[05:20] <ubotu> Package automatix does not exist in any distro I know
[05:20] <interstellar_ove> hell, you can even get limewire for linux
[05:20] <JoseStefan> !azureus
[05:20] <ubotu> azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo
[05:20] <TheGame> any1 here know why rhythmbox crashes on me 24/7
[05:20] <|thunder> pestilence, I did search there. can you remember the title of the digg ?
[05:20] <phenol> dude the better p2p run off linux. ofcourse there's going to be a client.
[05:20] <smwon> That is as far as I got
[05:20] <Warbo> HBK: You can install KDE or GNOME in each other, it doesn't matter which you install
[05:20] <smwon> this hard to follow
[05:20] <pestilence> |thunder, no.  i would try flash linux 9
[05:20] <smwon> in here
[05:20] <HBK> Just one more thing can you use NTFS formatted drive in Ubuntu?
[05:21] <phenol> hbk, yes
[05:21] <interstellar_ove> i had easy nvidia linux install
[05:21] <HBK> ok thanks
[05:21] <interstellar_ove> HBK: you can read but not write
[05:21] <Warbo> HBK: Yes. Reading works right off, but you may have to do a little more work to enable writing
[05:21] <iLikeSpoons> phenol, can you WRITE to it?
[05:21] <pestilence> |thunder, it was basically editing your ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat and changing 7 to 9 on the "flash" line
[05:21] <phenol> the answer to most of your "can do" questions are yes
[05:21] <_MoNkAbAnG_> i have limeware on my comp
[05:21] <cee-jay> HBK, you could just see screenshots for comparison before downloading the whole CDs
[05:21] <ajhtiredwolf_> lol, theres so many peopel talking i cant see if you answered my question or not
[05:21] <HBK> which is the default filesystem of Ubuntu? FAT32?
[05:21] <jbroome_> ext3
[05:21] <Warbo> HBK: WHAT? No!
[05:21] <BlueEagle> hbk: ext3
[05:21] <Warbo> Ext3 is default, I use ReiserFS
[05:22] <HBK> I saw the screenshots I can't really tell from them.
[05:22] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: they'll usually say your nick
[05:22] <|thunder> pestilence, I cant find it on digg still, but ill have a look into the firefox dir.
[05:22] <Warbo> FAT32==Very bad
[05:22] <pestilence> smwon, so...did it fix your problem?  is the program installed?
[05:22] <|thunder> pestilence, thanks
[05:22] <interstellar_ove> ext3
[05:22] <bengt_> Do anyone have a suggestion for how to remove a directory on hd  (which refuses to be deleted). Are currently running on live-cd, not hd
[05:22] <ajhtiredwolf_> right, so yeah anyone know about that?
[05:22] <viator> i use resizefs
[05:22] <pestilence> |thunder, http://digg.com/linux_unix/Flash_9_for_Ubuntu
[05:22] <ladydoor> !repeat
[05:22] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[05:22] <smwon> It didn't do anything except tell me again it was interupted
[05:22] <interstellar_ove> i almost went for rieserfs
[05:22] <HBK> I have a NTFS formatted USB drive can I install Ubuntu in it straight away?
[05:22] <cee-jay> HBK, ext3 requires no dreadful defragmenting  <-- very cool
[05:22] <phenol> anyone know of a good bluetooth howto? (for treo 650/700) if possible
[05:22] <interstellar_ove> but used ext3 instead
[05:22] <leoncamel> hi, folks.
[05:22] <HBK> will it format it for me to ext3?
[05:22] <subpar> _MoNkAbAnG_: limewire is bad
[05:22] <Warbo> HBK: You can either format over the NTFS, or shrink it (Ubuntu installer helps you do this)
[05:23] <|thunder> pestilence, thats it. thanks a million
[05:23] <leoncamel> I want insall gcc-3.2 on my ubuntu 5.10. what shall I do ?
[05:23] <pestilence> smwon, sounds like the package you are trying to install is broken....what package is it?
[05:23] <interstellar_ove> HBK: you won't be able to put files onto it
[05:23] <cee-jay> ubuntu can read (and be made to write to) NTFS partitions
[05:23] <ajhtiredwolf_> !search firefox
[05:23] <pestilence> |thunder, np.
[05:23] <_MoNkAbAnG_> how is it bad
[05:23] <smwon> dpkg
[05:23] <HBK> ok thanks again
[05:23] <BlueEagle> hbk: as always when managing partitions be sure to have backup of ALL important data.
[05:23] <brendonjt> hbk: yip i can format i for you the installer that is
[05:23] <pestilence> smwon, you were trying to install dpkg? that sounds unlikely
[05:23] <HBK> and just one more thing
[05:23] <subpar> _MoNkAbAnG_: it's full of spyware/viruses, etc... that sh&t will slow your compy down bad, more than windows does by itself
[05:23] <phenol> anyone know of a good bluetooth howto? (for treo 650/700) if possible
[05:23] <interstellar_ove> i like frostwire - mod of limewire source w/ out pro lags
[05:23] <Warbo> I don't like Limewire. It is far too bloated for a pretty simple job. GTK-Gnutella is very nice
[05:23] <smwon> I lost power while it was installing
[05:24] <ladydoor> !repeat > phenol
[05:24] <kishore> how to remove hda1 icon on the desctop
[05:24] <_MoNkAbAnG_> alright
[05:24] <ajhtiredwolf_> i just got ubuntu (love it btw) are tehre any tutorials for getting things to install with firefox? Like mplayer and flash and what not, and installing codecs for mplayer
[05:24] <interstellar_ove> also g2p.org using google to find free mp3
[05:24] <interstellar_ove> i get a lot of songs from there
[05:24] <_MoNkAbAnG_> hold on
[05:24] <ladydoor> !bluetooth > phenol
[05:24] <subpar> I prefer torrents myself
[05:24] <phenol> !bluetooth
[05:24] <smwon> and so now I have to manually run dpkg --configure -a'
[05:24] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup

[05:24] <pestilence> smwon, oh....did you do that?
[05:24] <phenol> thanks sorry
[05:24] <HBK> I use my Nokia 6630 cell phone to connect to internet via the usb data cable...how do I get it to run in Ubuntu? there is no driver for that
[05:24] <pestilence> smwon, run sudo dpkg --configure -a
[05:24] <smwon> No, I don't know how
[05:24] <bengt_> ladydoor: Thanks for noticing my question... :)
[05:24] <pestilence> smwon, type that into a command line
[05:24] <matthewf> ok well i give up on this display issue for now, time to go bash some Orcs in everquestII
[05:25] <Warbo> HBK: Does it have Bluetooth? I have had good experience with using 'phone as modem via Bluetooth, but have never tried USB
[05:25] <ladydoor> bengt_: np. try sudo. why do you want to remove a dir on the cd?
[05:25] <leoncamel> hi, folks. Is there anybody know how to install gcc-3.2 on ubuntu-5.10 ?
[05:25] <smwon> ok done that
[05:25] <HBK> I have N-Gage which supports thru bluetooth but my bluetooth Adaptor is of Mitsumi there is no driver's for it
[05:25] <Warbo> !info gcc-3.2 breezy
[05:25] <BlueEagle> hbk: what shows up on lsusb?
[05:25] <viator> isnt gcc 3.2 on there by default>
[05:25] <ubotu> Package gcc-3.2 does not exist in breezy
[05:25] <_MoNkAbAnG_> limewire delete self
[05:26] <pestilence> smwon, then run sudo apt-get install -f
[05:26] <_MoNkAbAnG_> *limewire is now gone*
[05:26] <bobovski> on the off chance...does anyone know how to rebuild the tetex database so that new packages are found?
[05:26] <_MoNkAbAnG_> good
[05:26] <pestilence> smwon, that should resume the installation
[05:26] <letsgfuad> jikante: thanks for the help
[05:26] <_MoNkAbAnG_> its gone
[05:26] <Warbo> HBK: Isn't there? I thought pretty much every Bluetooth device used the same chipset
[05:26] <interstellar_ove> ajtiredwolf_:http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[05:26] <bengt_> ladydoor: Not from the cd... a directory that has weird owner, and should actually be a file. Could not do anything from the hd, so booted up cd to try and do it from there... no difference..
[05:26] <smwon> didn't work
[05:26] <godtvisk1n> Why can't I burn .ogg files with gnomebaker? I can burn mp3s..
[05:26] <pestilence> bobovski, i think you can dpkg-reconfigure one of the tetex packages
[05:26] <interstellar_ove> make sure you update your sources before doing anything else
[05:26] <ladydoor> bengt_: try sudo
[05:26] <bengt_> ladydoor: will try a bit more... after that... reinstall :(
[05:26] <pestilence> bobovski, maybe dpkg-reconfigure tetex-bin or tetex-extras
[05:26] <ladydoor> bengt_: what dir is it again?
[05:26] <HBK> driver for Ubuntu for N-Gage bluetooth modem, nokia 6101 data cable modem and Mitsumi bluetooth adaptor. How about do I get those drivers?
[05:27] <smwon> still says E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:27] <pestilence> HBK, they are probably just included.
[05:27] <ladydoor> bengt_: and why does it bother you?
[05:27] <johny5> Anyone here willing neverwinter nights?
[05:27] <brendonjt> brb
[05:27] <leoncamel> Warbo, hey. what do you mean "!info" ?
[05:27] <bengt_> ladydoor: sudo chown, sudo chmod, sudo rm -fr, sudo rmdir... all gives "Operation not permitted"
[05:27] <BlueEagle> bengt_: why is it so important that the directory be removed again?
[05:27] <ladydoor> bengt_: again, what dir is it, and why does it bother you so much?
[05:27] <JoseStefan> !info gcc-3.3 breezy
[05:27] <ubotu> gcc-3.3: The GNU C compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 1:3.3.6-8ubuntu1 (breezy), package size 535 kB, installed size 4264 kB
[05:27] <HBK> ok I will run the ubuntu thing then now and talk to you all thru Ubuntu!
[05:27] <Warbo> HBK: By the way, usually going to manufacturers' websites for drivers is a waste of time. Most drivers are developed openly and are already in Ubuntu, other than that they are mainly third-party things
[05:28] <bengt_> BlueEagle: ladydoor trying to upgrade to dapper from breezy, and aptitude complaints on this libnautilus-extension.list file
[05:28] <leoncamel> !info gcc-3.2 breezy
[05:28] <ubotu> Package gcc-3.2 does not exist in breezy
[05:28] <sethk> bengt_, until you are able to change the ownership, nothing else will work, and you are just wasting your time
[05:28] <leoncamel> Warbo, and what shall I do next ?
[05:28] <HBK> bye and thank you
[05:28] <bobovski> pestilence: hmmm, "almost" worked...let me see if I can just find the package in the repository
[05:28] <sethk> bengt_, you can't remove it unless you own it.  root can change ownership, but root _cannot_ remove something it doesn't own
[05:28] <Warbo> leoncamel: It seems that it doesn't exist in Breezy. I don't know what to suggest
[05:29] <pestilence> sethk, that is not true.
[05:29] <bengt_> sethk: well, root could not change ownership of this one :( .... :(
[05:29] <JoseStefan> leoncamel, would 3.3 be good enough?
[05:29] <ladydoor> sethk: errr...yes it can. i've removed things from my home dir, owned by me, as root before
[05:29] <sethk> pestilence, yes, that is.  try it.
[05:29] <kitche> sthk: root can remove anything
[05:29] <pestilence> sethk, root can remove anything.
[05:29] <sethk> pestilence, no
[05:29] <ladydoor> sethk: root is all-powerful. lol
[05:29] <sethk> pestilence, look at the specs
[05:29] <kitche> sethk: it can delete your whole system if you want to
[05:29] <sethk> if, in fact, that happened, it's a POSIX violation
[05:29] <ladydoor> sethk: look at the definition of the root user
[05:29] <sethk> kitche, yes, it can own anything, but first it must own it
[05:30] <smwon> pestilence... it didn't work
[05:30] <ladydoor> sethk: do this. in your home dir, do touch testfile
[05:30] <leoncamel> JoseStefan, hmm, I have original librarys which alreay compiled by redhat 9. its gcc version is gcc-3.2.
[05:30] <kitche> sethk: no it can remove everything from a system
[05:30] <ladydoor> sethk: then do sudo rm testfile
[05:30] <pip> The Internet Configration programme shows that the Netcard is Broadcom Tigon3 but the real netcard is not that,why?
[05:30] <pestilence> sethk, i can tell you from personal experience, this is completely untrue
[05:30] <sethk> ladydoor, I am well aware of it.  It's possible that you are talking about a linux violation, but POSIX is extremely clear
[05:30] <ladydoor> sethk: just try it, please
[05:30] <mluu510> how do i check what version of compiz i have?
[05:30] <smwon> It stil saqys E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[05:30] <sethk> ladydoor, I did, before saying anything
[05:30] <Warbo> ladydoor: You realise that sudo is not root?
[05:30] <JoseStefan> sethk, root does not need permission to take action over a file
[05:30] <sethk> ladydoor, you aren't taking into account permissions on parent directories
[05:30] <cwillu> I'm I silly for thinking I can bind different actions to Tab and Control-Tab in bash?
[05:30] <subpar> hey fellas... I have a hard drive in my computer that I need both ubuntu and windows to be able to read and write to
[05:30] <ladydoor> Warbo: i've also done it in su
[05:30] <leoncamel> JoseStefan, So. If I install gcc-3.2 on ubuntu. I needn't reinstall the whole system.
[05:30] <pestilence> sethk, on ubuntu, with superuser priveleges, you should be able to remove anything.
[05:30] <subpar> whats my best bet
[05:30] <sethk> JoseStefan, not when it does not own upper directory levels of the tree
[05:30] <cwillu> I'm = Am (doh)
[05:30] <ladydoor> sethk: i own my home dir, not root
[05:31] <sethk> pestilence, no.  it was a major change when posix came out.  read it.
[05:31] <Warbo> ladydoor: Just making sure you understood (that's why we have gksudo)
[05:31] <sethk> ladydoor, root owns the ROOT of your home directory
[05:31] <pestilence> sethk, take me to the water, i'll drink
[05:31] <ladydoor> sethk: it *used* to. then i chowned it to me
[05:31] <sethk> pestilence, really, check the posix check
[05:31] <pestilence> i'm just telling you from my experience.  with sudo, i can rm -rf /  <-- don't do this
[05:31] <sethk> the posix spec
[05:31] <Warbo> subpar: FAT32 can be read/written by Ubuntu and Windows. Ext3 can if you install a driver in Windows
[05:31] <sethk> pestilence, absolutely, because root owns /
[05:32] <pestilence> sethk, but not all subdirectories
[05:32] <kitche> sthk: posix doesn't have anything to do with user accounts it more meant for API's
[05:32] <subpar> really
[05:32] <viator> root can just chown it back
[05:32] <viator> lol
[05:32] <subpar> alright, thanks :):)
[05:32] <sethk> pestilence, true, but that's not what I said
[05:32] <johny5> Well, if anyone can help, I'm running Ubuntu 6.06, on an Athlon 2100XP, GeForce 440mx.  I installed Neverwinter Nights with the Raven installer and updated it to version 1.66.  When I try to run it, it switches to a black screen and locks, I have to alt+ctrl+backspace to get out of it.
[05:32] <kitche> sethk: posix doesn't have anything to do with user accounts it more meant for API's
[05:32] <sethk> pestilence, I said that the problem we are talking about, he will never be able to erase because of the ownership
[05:32] <pestilence> sethk, well, on the default ubuntu system, root ALWAYS owns /
[05:32] <ladydoor> sethk: ok, seriously. make an empty file in your home dir (or a subdir of your home dir) and then su to root and remove it
[05:32] <pestilence> sethk, maybe i missed something.
[05:32] <ladydoor> sethk: it *will* work
[05:32] <sethk> kitche, that's completely false.  POSIX has a complete shell specification, and permissions are part of the shell
[05:32] <Warbo> In my experience root has the capability to do anything, but restrictions still apply. For example read-only files are still read-only, just that root is allowed to make them writable
[05:33] <bobovski> pestilence: dpkg-reconfigure tetex-base worked. thanks!
[05:33] <sethk> Warbo, correct, that's another good example
[05:33] <cwillu> How do I bind a command to Control-Tab in bash?  bind 'control-tab: complete' seems to collide with bind 'tab:  menu-complete'
[05:33] <pestilence> bobovski, np
[05:33] <ajhtiredwolf_> E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree
[05:33] <sethk> root can't remove it, if it's read only, root must first change the permissions
[05:33] <Warbo> Therefore read-only restriction applies, but root is still capable of writing to read-only files
[05:33] <sethk> root can change any permission, but if the permission is wrong, root cannot remove
[05:33] <Warbo> (by chaning them to read-enabled)
[05:33] <hyperstream> can alsa support two sound cards? one onbard and one pci ?
[05:33] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: hey I just decided to install ubuntu on my laptop, and I like it but im having a problem installing flash for firefox
[05:33] <sethk> Warbo, that's true, although that's also a posix violation.  I think zsh fixes it.
[05:33] <hyperstream> or one uses oss and one uses alsa?
[05:33] <ladydoor> !flash

[05:34] <JoseStefan> sethk, so you are saying that if i create a folder, and remove all permission 0000, root wont be able to remove it?
[05:34] <sethk> ajhtiredwolf_, what's happening?
[05:34] <ajhtiredwolf_> I get this E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree
[05:34] <sethk> JoseStefan, root cannot remove it if it is read only,
[05:34] <sethk> JoseStefan, try it.
[05:34] <Warbo> Anyway, this doesn't seem to be getting sound working in my Realplayer :(
[05:34] <sethk> Warbo, true
[05:34] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: i just tried it and it worked.
[05:34] <sethk> :)
[05:34] <loktai> Can anyone explain why my Belkin F5D7050 card isn't working after following the instructions on http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Rt2x00drivers
[05:34] <kitche> sethl: yep I just removed a file
[05:34] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: root was able to remove it
[05:34] <pestilence> sethk, if this were #posix, i might agree with you.  but this is #ubuntu which uses bash, and perhaps violates some posix spec.  but root can rm -rf / and it will wipe everyhing, read-only or no
[05:34] <hyperstream> can alsa support two sound cards? one onbard and one pci ?   or one uses oss and one uses alsa?   (So i can use xmms on one) while i use the other for teamspeak while ingame ? )
[05:34] <Warbo> I might download the last package, since that had sound (but no video)
[05:34] <ladydoor> sethk: seriously, try the stuff you're saying
[05:34] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree
[05:35] <viator> realplayer?
[05:35] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_> make sure the sources.list is correct
[05:35] <viator> heh
[05:35] <ladydoor> !realplayer
[05:35] <Warbo> !info realplay
[05:35] <sethk> pestilence, I don't use bash, I'll have to check it.  bash has awful compliance

[05:35] <viator> use mplayer it plays all those codecs
[05:35] <pestilence> sethk, that may be, but ubuntu defaults to bash.  so almost everyone here uses it ;)
[05:35] <Warbo> viator: I hate realplayer, but it is the only player I have found which can skip through realmedia streams
[05:35] <sethk> ajhtiredwolf_, you checked the obvious, which is that non-free repositories are enabled in your sources.list?
[05:35] <letsgfuad> viator: can you help me get mplayer working?
[05:35] <kitche> sthk: only shell that supports POSIX is korn shell which about 0 distros use by default
[05:35] <JoseStefan> sethk, ladydoor: worked here too
[05:35] <letsgfuad> how do i get the codecs?

 look at the links provided by ubotu
[05:36] <viator> letsgfuad whats wrong?
[05:36] <sethk> ajhtiredwolf_, look in /etc/apt/sources.list, look for lines beginning with # (commented out)
[05:36] <bengt_> anything special I need to do to remove a "setuid sticky directory" ?
[05:36] <letsgfuad> well first i cant get mplayer working, so i got kmplayer working with xfce
[05:36] <loktai> hyperstream: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240349&highlight=rt2570
[05:36] <letsgfuad> viator: it said it had a problem w/ one of the libs
[05:36] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: you can try http://ubuntuguide.com too
[05:36] <sethk> which lines in sources.list are for not necessarily free software?
[05:37] <kitche> ladydoor: well posix standards aren't even posted on the net, so who knows what the standard truly says
[05:37] <pestilence> sethk, multiverse
[05:37] <Warbo> What is the address of the commercial repo?
[05:37] <viator> mplayer gives me errors somtimes but i ignore them and it works fine its buggy
[05:37] <sethk> bengt_, change the permissions to not be sticky
[05:37] <ladydoor> sethk: multiverse
[05:37] <sethk> pestilence, thanks
[05:37] <sethk> ladydoor, thanks
[05:37] <ladydoor> kitche: lol. you're preaching to the choir
[05:37] <letsgfuad> viator: how do i get the codecs?
[05:37] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: ive always used kedit but that doesnt seem to work in ubuntu what else can i use?
[05:37] <viator> do you have all the appropriate codecs
[05:37] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: sorry, should be .org not .com
[05:37] <ladydoor> kitche: tell sethk that
[05:37] <ajhtiredwolf_> irawan: thanks man
[05:37] <sethk> ajhtiredwolf_, gedit, if you installed gnome
[05:37] <viator> letsgfuad do you have a stock sources.list?
[05:37] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: im using kubuntu
[05:37] <bengt_> sethk: chmod 0000 <file> --> operation not permitted.... Take it I need to reinstall...
[05:37] <letsgfuad> no i have them all availible
[05:37] <sethk> ajhtiredwolf_, use vim
[05:38] <letsgfuad> so i removed the #
[05:38] <Marsmensch> why i can't use | to give an argument to tail in ubuntu?
[05:38] <sethk> ajhtiredwolf_, use nano if you are desparate
[05:38] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: nano is better for a beginner
[05:38] <viator> do you have the plf repos etc?
[05:38] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: sudo nano -w
[05:38] <sethk> Marsmensch, you can.  give us the line you are trying to use
[05:38] <cwillu> Marsmensch, what's the command you're trying?
[05:38] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: nm gedit works
[05:38] <letsgfuad> viator: i have no clue what those are
[05:38] <viator> did you make one from the source o matic site?
[05:38] <pip> there are 2 netcards in my computer one is enthnet ,the other is wireless ,but why can't I see the wirless card in the Network Device programme ?
[05:38] <ladydoor> viator: they aren't enabled by defaut, but i can give you the link
[05:38] <Warbo> AHA! Commercial repo is in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[05:38] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: it should be gedit source.list?
[05:38] <pestilence> pip, maybe the wireless card doesn't work with the ubuntu modules.
[05:39] <loktai> pip: that's the problem i'm having too
[05:39] <DARKGuy> greetings, is there a way I can set a variable to be active in -all- linux? dunno if I explain myself... I need to do "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1", but I don't want to edit every file in /usr/bin to have that line, so what would I do in this case then?
[05:39] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: while in /etc/apt/ ?
[05:39] <sethk> bengt_, if you can boot a live cd and mount the file system, I think you'll be able to chown and chmod it to the point where you can erase it.
[05:39] <letsgfuad> viator: nope
[05:39] <pestilence> pip, run (from a terminal) iwconfig
[05:39] <ladydoor> viator: did you get those?
[05:39] <sethk> ajhtiredwolf_, the file?  /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:39] <Marsmensch> month=`head -c 5 datetemp | tail -c 2`;
[05:39] <viator> go here http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[05:39] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: first, back up your sources.list
[05:39] <pip> loktai, I am using redhat
[05:39] <loktai> pestilence: do you know how to install a wireless usb?
[05:39] <sethk> bengt_, if you don't mind installing, that will work definitely  :)
[05:39] <bengt_> sethk: unfortunately, that is where I am now... I booted edgy live, mounted hdc1 on /mnt, and am working under /mnt...
[05:39] <letsgfuad> k thanks
[05:39] <ajhtiredwolf_> sethk: yeah i did cd /etc/apt/ then i did gedit source.list
[05:39] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak
[05:39] <viator> ignore the kde stuff unless you want/have kde
[05:39] <phenol> ok i'm having problems with the bluetooth installation
[05:39] <pestilence> loktai, not from personal experience, but i would guess you might have to use ndiswrapper
[05:39] <sethk> bengt_, you may have to chown all the parent directories
[05:39] <shinta42> what's the proper procedure to go on recompile a module?
[05:39] <pestilence> !tell loktai about ndiswrapper
[05:40] <loktai> heh
[05:40] <pip> pestilence, no such command
[05:40] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: <alt>f2 gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list <enter>
[05:40] <bengt_> sethk: :) I figured that... nothing fancy on this one, just my mythtv box
[05:40] <loktai> pestilence: I tried that
[05:40] <pestilence> pip, hrmm :-/  iwconfig should come with ubuntu.
[05:40] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: after *backing up* your sources.list
[05:40] <DARKGuy> anybody?
[05:40] <phenol> it says Host down
[05:40] <phenol> Can't get device information: Host is down
[05:40] <Marsmensch> sethk, cwillu this line worked with debian fine, unfortunal it doesn't work with ubuntu
[05:40] <sethk> bengt_, if you don't mind reinstalling, then reinstall.  if you want to figure it out, probably you can eventually
[05:40] <Warbo> Bah, there is only 1 .deb available for Realplayer, and it is the one which isn't working
[05:40] <sethk> Marsmensch, that makes no sense, same shell
[05:40] <pip> pestilence, so with redhat ....?
[05:40] <pestilence> pip, /sbin/iwconfig ?
[05:40] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: says "sudo: command not found
[05:40] <sethk> Marsmensch, possibly different options.  what's the line?
[05:40] <pestilence> pip, with redhat, you hit up #redhat
[05:41] <episteme73> is compix compatible with automatrix on a 64bit install?
[05:41] <pestilence> pip, or #fedorea
[05:41] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok. a) did you back up the file
[05:41] <pestilence> or whatever :)
[05:41] <sethk> Marsmensch, use zsh, when bash messes up zsh works well
[05:41] <Marsmensch> sethk: MONTH=`head -c 5 dateemp | tail -c 2`;
[05:41] <shinta42> can anyone tell me the proper procedure to go on recompile a module?
[05:41] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: i logged out of root it seems to be working onw
[05:41] <DARKGuy> *repeats* => Greetings, is there a way I can set a variable to be active in -all- linux? dunno if I explain myself... I need to do "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1", but I don't want to edit every file in /usr/bin to have that line, so what would I do in this case then?
[05:41] <Botty> I'm on the ubuntu installer now
[05:41] <sethk> Marsmensch, don't use back ticks, they are a c shell anachronism.  use   $(head .... )
[05:41] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: b) did you do *gksudo* gedit /etc/apt/sources.list from that dialog i told you how to open up?
[05:41] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: yeah, you shouldn't be logged in as root :-)
[05:41] <ladydoor> !repeat > DARKGuy
[05:42] <Botty> If there is a Warning symbol (yellow triangle, exclamation mark) on the manual partition thing, what does that mean?
[05:42] <sethk> Marsmensch, try the inner command first, make sure it is doing what you expect
[05:42] <Marsmensch> sethk:  how do you mean that?
[05:42] <pip> pestilence, [pip@localhost sbin] $ ./iwconfig
[05:42] <pip> lo        no wireless extensions.
[05:42] <pip> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[05:42] <pip> sit0      no wireless extensions.
[05:42] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: ok its open now
[05:42] <brendonjt> back
[05:42] <JoseStefan> !paste > pip
[05:42] <Botty> for some reason my shared fat32 thing has 'boot' flag as well as that warning symbol
[05:42] <pestilence> pip, your wireless card was not automatically configured
[05:42] <ladydoor> Botty: it means that it's helpful if you know what you're doing. if you need any help, feel free to ask
[05:42] <Botty> hehe
[05:42] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: gedit is? sweet.
[05:42] <sethk> Marsmensch, in your line, try     head -c 5 dateemp | tail -c 2    by itself, first
[05:42] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: yes sir
[05:42] <Botty> I think I may have stuck gedit stage 1/1.5 on my shared fat32 partition
[05:43] <Botty> doh
[05:43] <pestilence> pip, first iteration: install ubuntu.  then come back
[05:43] <Botty> I mean grub
[05:43] <Botty> lol
[05:43] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: what should i be looking for?
[05:43] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: uh...neither lady nor the name "door" are normally associated with me
[05:43] <pip> pestilence, how do deal with that problem ?
[05:43] <Marsmensch> one moment
[05:43] <ladydoor> n
[05:43] <MistaED> DARKGuy: i personally wouldn't recommend setting that system-wide as some programs have a problem without that visual, but i believe putting it at the end of your .bashrc in your home directory will do the thing you want
[05:43] <shinta42> pestilence:can you tell me how to recompile a kernel module?
[05:43] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: what're you trying to do again? uncomment repositories?
[05:43] <Marsmensch> sethk: i try, mom
[05:43] <pestilence> shinta42, what module?
[05:43] <pip> pestilence, But I am using redhat
[05:43] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: (i.e., i'm not a man)
[05:43] <pestilence> pip, ubuntu > redhat ;)
[05:43] <Botty> Anyway, do you think I can resize this fat32 partition safely?
[05:43] <viator> goto #redhat
[05:43] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor:  im trying to install flash in firefox
[05:43] <viator> the
[05:43] <bwlang> when i try to run any sound app i get this message on the console... ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:819:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave - how can i resolve the eror (/etc/init.d/alsa-utils doesn't do it)
[05:43] <pestilence> pip, redhat enterprise?
[05:43] <DARKGuy> Misnix: ah, I tried putting it at the start of the file, duh!... alright I shall try that then, thanks a lot =)
[05:43] <bengt_> sethk: and all others... :) Thanks for good support... But since the obvious and more not obvious solutions did not fix it... it should be faster to re-install... :(
[05:43] <pip> pestilence, yes
[05:43] <sethk> ladydoor, I told him to make sure he has the not free repositories uncommented
[05:44] <pestilence> pip, then CALL THEM !!!
[05:44] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok, so you need to uncomment the "universe" and "multiverse repositories
[05:44] <ladydoor> sethk: thanks
[05:44] <pestilence> pip, what the hell did you pay for?
[05:44] <episteme73> does anyone know if Gxl + compix is compatible with automatrix on a 64bit install?
[05:44] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor:  uncomment?
[05:44] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: so remove the number sign from in front of those lines
[05:44] <ladydoor> :-)
[05:44] <pestilence> pip, the whole point of enterprise, i thought, was paid support
[05:44] <pip> pestilence, redhat Advanced Enterprise
[05:44] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: wait
[05:44] <MistaED> DARKGuy: although i can't remember, i think ubuntu didn
[05:44] <shinta42> pestilence:vt82cXXX ...i have a undetected vt8237a southbridge i have to manually edit the header and .c and add a few lines then i need to recompile it
[05:44] <MistaED> *'t like that, but suse did
[05:44] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: you want to install flashplugins
[05:44] <sethk> pip, unfortunately, red hat enterprise is becomming rather old
[05:44] <ajhtiredwolf_> irawan: yes
[05:45] <pip> sethk, Maybe
[05:45] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: you should find out where it is first
[05:45] <sethk> or fortunately, depending on your politics I guess
[05:45] <pestilence> shinta42, oh...well, you should probably apt-get install the kernel source
[05:45] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: multiverse, right?
[05:45] <DARKGuy> MistaED: whoops! :P either way I'm checking if that works, can't lose anything trying ;)
[05:45] <Marsmensch> sethk: doesn't work either ... "2 no such file or directory"
[05:45] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: I mean where apt repos for flahplugin
[05:45] <pip> sethk, the update is a hell
[05:45] <ladydoor> irawan: multiverse, right?
[05:45] <DARKGuy> brb
[05:45] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: ummm, I dont see... a... hold on one sec let me get a mouse, then this will be easier brb
[05:45] <ladydoor> !flashplugin
[05:45] <Warbo> RedHat Enterprise remains pretty much unchanged for years, that is the point. If you want a home distro then Fedora is there
[05:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flashplugin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:45] <Marsmensch> i think the | doesn't work with tail and head here ....
[05:45] <shinta42> pestilence:okay...i dont have to recompile the whole kernel again right ?
[05:45] <pestilence> shinta42, you should be able to compile just that module, but i can't give you detailed instructions
[05:46] <irawan> ladydoor: I'm having very slow connection and can't remember, sorry
[05:46] <pestilence> shinta42, no, you should be able to compile only that module
[05:46] <shinta42> pestilence: oh
[05:46] <ladydoor> irawan: ah. well, i'm pretty sure that's where they are, as they're non-free software
[05:46] <shinta42> pestilence:okay i will google then
[05:46] <pestilence> shinta42, i would poke around the source tree and try make-ing in the module directory
[05:47] <irawan> ladydoor: so, it means adding multiverse to the existing line, right
[05:47] <shinta42> pestilence:i am 2 scared to recompile the kernel..i did it before to fix my hdd dma problem but then it broke my nvidia and sound lol
[05:47] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: ok so ...  remove the # sign infront of the word universe?
[05:47] <pestilence> shinta42, hmm
[05:48] <pestilence> shinta42, you definitely want to pull the config from /boot/
[05:48] <shinta42> pestilence:so i am reinstalling ubuntu now...
[05:48] <Botty> If I do the partitions manually do i have to make my own swap?
[05:48] <pestilence> shinta42, and make oldconfig
[05:48] <pestilence> shinta42, that will make your life somewhat easier
[05:48] <shinta42> pestilence:....
[05:48] <JoseStefan> Botty, i think yes
[05:48] <Botty> alright
[05:49] <pestilence> shinta42, /boot/config-2.6.whatever version you want
[05:49] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: no
[05:49] <pestilence> shinta42, you copy that into /usr/src/linux-whatever version
[05:49] <ladydoor> !paste
[05:49] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:49] <pestilence> then make oldconfig with it
[05:49] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: paste you sources.list into that link
[05:49] <viator> remember when you had to put in heads and cylinders etc when installing
[05:49] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: and then let send me the new link
[05:49] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: you should add the word 'multiverse' to the existing line
[05:49] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: and i will show you what to do :-)
[05:50] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_: or just go to Software Properties and enable them from there
[05:50] <hanfred> moin moin
[05:50] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: oh, what's that?
[05:50] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22202
[05:50] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: do it JoseStefan's way, actually
[05:50] <hanfred> hello
[05:50] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: or just add this deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper multiverse
[05:50] <irawan> :)
[05:50] <pestilence> shinta42, you cp it to .config ...
[05:50] <hanfred> give it a german channel for xubuntu users?!
[05:50] <JoseStefan> i think !repositories has that info
[05:50] <ladydoor> !de
[05:50] <ubotu> Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[05:50] <JoseStefan> !repositories
[05:50] <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
[05:50] <Botty> you can resize a fat32 parition without harming the data right?
[05:51] <viator> botty yes
[05:51] <Botty> sweet
[05:51] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: what is the thing you said to use?
[05:51] <viator> BUT
[05:51] <viator> defrag it
[05:51] <viator> first
[05:51] <Botty> I'm expanding it
[05:51] <JoseStefan> ladydoor: "Software Properties"
[05:51] <ladydoor> Botty: still though
[05:51] <phenol> the forums are down
[05:51] <Botty> so i don't think defrag should be a problem
[05:51] <Botty> ah
[05:51] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: right...what is it?
[05:51] <phenol> anyone successfully sync via bluetooth a treo phone?
[05:51] <Botty> well too late
[05:51] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: try add this deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper multiverse
[05:51] <Botty> lets hope for the best
[05:51] <JoseStefan> ladydoor: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[05:51] <pestilence> phenol, probably.
[05:51] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: then sudo apt-get update
[05:52] <shinta42> pestilence:i am just going to stcik with the stock kernel and rebuild the via southbridge module...it took me 3 days of tweaking with the kernel to figure out my via southbridge wasn't supported in the kernel sourc and realize need to patch it by hand lol...now its fixed but my sound and nvidia broke...sigh.
[05:52] <pestilence> phenol, check out multisync
[05:52] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: ah, so it's a fancy gui then
[05:52] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: that explains it
[05:52] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: then install the flashplugin
[05:52] <JoseStefan> ladydoor: should be easier for must users
[05:52] <ajhtiredwolf_> irawan: i think that is already in there but with a #
[05:52] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: yeah
[05:52] <JoseStefan> most*
[05:52] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: i mean, it's good to have it!
[05:52] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: i approve :-)
[05:52] <viator> was funny i made my wifes laptop dual boot i didnt defrag lost windows partion so i reinstalled
[05:52] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: so wait, what am i doing?
[05:52] <JoseStefan> ladydoor, !repositories leads there
[05:52] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: then remove the # then, save, then run update
[05:52] <pestilence> shinta42, ok....well, you *could* just apply whatever patch you found to the ubuntu kernel...and compile with the ubuntu config...that would certainly fix your sound problem
[05:52] <sky123> hello. I was hopong someone could help me out with a package i removed...specifically nagios... and then helping to reinstall it..
[05:52] <viator> after a while the kept geting bothered by that wga crap
[05:52] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: go to software properties in the gnome menu
[05:52] <sky123> hoping
[05:53] <sky123> woops
[05:53] <viator> witha legitimate copy
[05:53] <pestilence> shinta42, or, do whatever you want :)  won't hurt my feelings
[05:53] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: im not in gnome im in KDE
[05:53] <viator> she says get this windows off my pc!
[05:53] <Botty> viator - ah sucks
[05:53] <Botty> lol
[05:53] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: there should be something similar in there
[05:53] <ladydoor> :-)
[05:53] <Marsmensch> sethk: try: echo bla | tail -c 1
[05:53] <sky123> I did an apt-get --purge remove on nagios-mysql
[05:53] <nomasteryoda> viator, cool...
[05:53] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: mmm, i see add remove proe?grams mayb
[05:53] <brendonjt> viator: cool
[05:53] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_, ladydoor: going to check
[05:53] <sky123> but when i try to reinstall i dont get the options..again...the setup options
[05:53] <sky123> any ideas??
[05:53] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: blah...do you still have gedit open? let's just do it my way :-)
[05:53] <Botty> well, resizing seems to be going awfully slow.  maybe its defragging for me
[05:54] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: yes i do
[05:54] <viator> the cool part is that everything works
[05:54] <pestilence> sky123, dpkg-reconfigure
[05:54] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok, just a sec
[05:54] <JoseStefan> !tell ajhtiredwolf_ about repos
[05:54] <viator> all the special keys on the kb
[05:54] <viator> the broadcom internal wifi
[05:54] <Anubuntu> heyo, wondering if theres any way to install Windows on a partition after ubuntu (my partition order is this /boot/, root. /home/, FREESPACE, SWAP)
[05:54] <viator> even the button to turn the wifi on and off
[05:54] <viator> they all work
[05:54] <pestilence> Anubuntu, yes, install it in FREESPACE ;)
[05:55] <brendonjt> anubuntu:  yip on the free space
[05:55] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok, change your first two lines to match what the first two lines in this link are: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22203
[05:55] <pestilence> Anubuntu, or, install it as a virtual machine inside vmware server, and put it in your linux partitions as a file
[05:55] <shinta42> pestilence:how do i check when the next available ubuntu kernel source build will have the patch?
[05:55] <Anubuntu> Pestilence, yes, I know this, but windows whines that it needs to write to the first partition on the disk.
[05:55] <viator> out of 5 pc's in our houes one has windos
[05:55] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: and then you can save and close gedit.
[05:55] <sky123> pestilence: funny thing is that when i say...reinstall nagios-text or nagios-mysql...i dont "see" the typical /etc/nagios files...does the dpkg-reconfigure nagios-text put them there??
[05:55] <pestilence> shinta42, that's anybody's guess.  you should file a bug report though.  most likely, it won't show up until edgy
[05:55] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: thanks let me give that a try
[05:55] <spuddogg> hello all
[05:55] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: np
[05:55] <spuddogg> ladydoor, hello
[05:55] <pestilence> Anubuntu, hrmm...it shouldn't care.
[05:55] <viator> and thas my son and daughters for some games
[05:56] <ladydoor> spuddogg: hello
[05:56] <shinta42> pestilence:when is edgy?
[05:56] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_: you need to do a refresh (update)
[05:56] <brendonjt> spuddogg: hi there
[05:56] <ladydoor> shinta42: october
[05:56] <pestilence> sky123, did you remove those files manually?
[05:56] <lib8264q> hi channel simple ? whats  minimum specs for ubuntu
[05:56] <viator> but im thinking ill just make them use it in a virtual invironment
[05:56] <viator> kqemu vmware
[05:56] <sethk> Anubuntu, linux doesn't care about partition order.   windows sometimes has problems if it isn't the first partition.  you can try it.
[05:56] <viator> etc
[05:56] <spuddogg> ladydoor, this is working really good...music, movies, wireless linksys card, c++, etc etc
[05:56] <ajhtiredwolf_> josestefan: huh?
[05:56] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: then when you're done, go to synaptic and hit refresh
[05:56] <pestilence> shinta42, i think about december.
[05:56] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: is what he means
[05:56] <viator> no 3d fancy games just little kid games so should be fine
[05:56] <spuddogg> ladydoor: i love this distro...and thanks for your help
[05:56] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: and then search for firefox
[05:56] <ladydoor> spuddogg: np!
[05:56] <ladydoor> spuddogg: :-)
[05:57] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_: on a terminal window: sudo apt-get update
[05:57] <lib8264q> anyone ??????
[05:57] <pestilence> ladydoor, that seems too soon...isn't dapper 6.06?  i thought they were on 6 month releases
[05:57] <spuddogg> ladydoor: let me know if you ever need some help or something
[05:57] <viator> min specs for ubuntu is a tough question
[05:57] <sky123> pestilence: unfortunately at first it did...then had to manually remove the syslo.. or whatever entries..then that fixed apt-get.. ( I know I know).... but now im looking to reinstall the bastage...:)
[05:57] <viator> you could make it run on anything really
[05:57] <ladydoor> pestilence: i think dapper may have been a little late...i remember upgrading to breezy in october
[05:57] <Amaranth> pestilence: 6.06 was supposed to be 6.04, they are just moving back to their old schedule after a delay in the dapper release
[05:57] <brendonjt> check on the ubuntu website it has the specs for ubuntu
[05:57] <viator> if you want fancy graphics and gnome id say p2 400 with 256 mb
[05:58] <pestilence> sky123, there is an option to apt that will get it to reinstall the /etc/ files....
[05:58] <ladydoor> spuddogg: cool, i will. same for you!
[05:58] <bruenig> min specs are listed on the ubuntu website, all I remember was that it was 128 MB for memory
[05:58] <pestilence> Amaranth, ah.
[05:58] <spuddogg> ladydoor, dont say that too soon...i might bug the heck out of you :)
[05:58] <sky123> pestilence: know that that option is?? or will I have to man for it
[05:58] <lib8264q> cant see it  maby iv overlooked it ...
[05:58] <ladydoor> spuddogg: meh. i'm eminently buggable :-)
[05:58] <Botty> hmm, I wonder if I can get the installer to mount my shared partition into my user directory...
[05:58] <pestilence> sky123, sec
[05:58] <ladydoor> spuddogg: and for all you know i might bug you to death to
[05:58] <ladydoor> haha
[05:58] <Botty> even when it might not be created yet
[05:59] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: i did sudo apt-get install acroread mozilla-acroread acroread-plugins, and still got E: Couldn't find package acroread
[05:59] <spuddogg> ladydoor: lol....well, i'm off to bed.  ttyl
[05:59] <bruenig> Botty why not add it later
[05:59] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: maybe you should open synaptic and search in there.
[05:59] <bruenig> !info acroread
[05:59] <Botty> bruenig - I guess I will, to stay on the safe side
[05:59] <ubotu> acroread: Adobe Acrobat Reader: Portable Document Format file viewer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 7.0.1-0.0.ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 22263 kB, installed size 53192 kB (Only available for i386)
[05:59] <pestilence> sky123, try apt-get -o DPkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" --reinstall install the packagename
[05:59] <viator> with xubuntu id say pentium 200 233 with 128 mb min
[05:59] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: (after doing an update)
[05:59] <ladydoor> spuddogg: good night.
[05:59] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: ok so i need to update ubuntu?
[05:59] <viator> and thats pushing it
[06:00] <Botty> Install begun
[06:00] <viator> sudo apt-get update
[06:00] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok. open synaptic and click on the "reload" button
[06:00] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: synaptic?
[06:00] <lib8264q> iv  it installed on a lappy  ..but i might have to give it up to my son   hell need a xp box for his course so might need another lappy ...
[06:00] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: and then search in there for "mozilla" or for "firefox"
[06:00] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: the package manager
[06:00] <bruenig> don't give graphical instructions, they take so much longer and are a headache
[06:00] <ladydoor> bruenig: normally i don't
[06:00] <brendonjt> ladywolf:  or he/she could go sudo apt-get update
[06:00] <ladydoor> bruenig: however, i don't know the name of the package in question
[06:00] <bruenig> or apt-cache search mozilla
[06:01] <bruenig> what are you looking for
[06:01] <viator> ajhtiredwold are you using synaptic or add remove programs or the cli?
[06:01] <ajhtiredwolf_> i just did sudo apt-get update
[06:01] <viator> cool
[06:01] <viator> cli is best :)
[06:01] <ladydoor>  ajhtiredwolf_: sweet. ok, now do apt-cache search firefox
[06:01] <bruenig> ajhtiredwolf, do you even have the multiverse repository enabled?
[06:01] <ladydoor> bruenig: yes
[06:01] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: its still installing stuff
[06:02] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: can i private message you, im having a hard time reading between all these messages
[06:02] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: that's not installation right now...it's just updating the repositories it's looking at
[06:02] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: sure
[06:02] <JoseStefan> ladydoor, you sure kubuntu has synaptic?
[06:02] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: nope
[06:03] <JoseStefan> me neither
[06:03] <pestilence> JoseStefan, kubuntu uses adept
[06:03] <bruenig> JoseStefan: it is adept in kubuntu
[06:03] <bruenig> or I think there is something called kynaptic
[06:03] <JoseStefan> bruenig, lol
[06:03] <bruenig> maybe not, I read that
[06:03] <bruenig> could have been a joke
[06:03] <ladydoor> bruenig: ah. well, these graphical programs confuse me :-(
[06:03] <pestilence> bruenig, i think you are right, but they use adept now.
[06:03] <pestilence> bruenig, i think kynaptic was in a very early version of kubuntu
[06:04] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: you were going for a pm?
[06:04] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: i did...
[06:04] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: are you getting my messages?
[06:04] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: i bet you're not registered. ok, i'll pm you
[06:04] <bruenig> pming is a bad idea in that when we are able to read the messages we can spot mistakes or provide complementary help
[06:05] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: bruenig makes a good point
[06:05] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: are you getting my messages now?
[06:05] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: no. i think you have to be registered. just do it out here
[06:05] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: look for the notification when somebody says your nick
[06:05] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: i tried to update and got yet another error
[06:05] <bruenig> ladydoor, that is assuming he is using a client that does that
[06:05] <ajhtiredwolf_> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavail               able)
[06:05] <ajhtiredwolf_> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another proc               ess using it?
[06:05] <JoseStefan> most chat clients highlight
[06:06] <cwillu> grr... why is it impossible to bind ctrl-tab to anything in bash?  alternatively, why can't bash distinguish control-tab from tab?
[06:06] <ajhtiredwolf_> im using xchat
[06:06] <bruenig> gaim certainly does not or I don't know the option there
[06:06] <pestilence> ajhtiredwolf_, lsof |grep dpkg
[06:06] <ladydoor> bruenig: ok. thanks.
[06:06] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: close all that using apt or dpkg
[06:06] <viator> heh you have another terminal open using apt?
[06:06] <bthornton> I just changed monitors on my Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS system and would like to have X reconfigure for the new refresh rates (like it did at install); how can I do this?
[06:06] <kitche> bruenig: gaim is't really an irc chat client per say
[06:06] <bruenig> ajhtiredwolf_, just look for the red text
[06:06] <cpsalvestrini> hello everyone
[06:06] <bruenig> irssi doesnt
[06:06] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_, what was the cmd you used?
[06:06] <dashriKe> any Slick Idiot fans?
[06:06] <cwillu> bthornton, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg I believe
[06:06] <ajhtiredwolf_> josestefan: the one you gave me
[06:06] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok, anyway, do apt-cache search firefox
[06:06] <cwillu> bthornton, just hit enter for everything to accept the detected values
[06:07] <ajhtiredwolf_> josestefan: i froget which one
[06:07] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: close all programs you're running except your xchat :)
[06:07] <bthornton> cwillu: cool; thanks
[06:07] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_: on a terminal window: sudo apt-get update
[06:07] <kitche> bruenig: irssi highlights the name yellow of the persont hat said your name
[06:07] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: then run a terminal
[06:07] <spuddogg> ladydoor, what do you know about screen resolution and laptops?
[06:07] <cpsalvestrini> I was wondering, is it normal that the wireless network drops after a while?
[06:07] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: i did that and got allot of stuff
[06:07] <dennisharrison> !es
[06:07] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:07] <ladydoor> spuddogg: not a lot. sorry
[06:07] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: do you see the plugin you're looking for?
[06:07] <spuddogg> ladydoor, ok no prob
[06:07] <spuddogg> google it is
[06:07] <bruenig> kitche, does it. I never used it in any length I just kind of looked at it for a while
[06:07] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: let me try the sudo apt-get update again one sec
[06:07] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: if not, try apt-cache search mozilla
[06:08] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: you don't need to
[06:08] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: i promise
[06:08] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: once is enough
[06:08] <bruenig> do you use xchat or xchat-gnome?
[06:08] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: it didnt work the first time
[06:08] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: that command gave me like 200 results
[06:08] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: it gave you an error?
[06:08] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: yes
[06:08] <bruenig> which package should I download, I am getting a bit tired of gaim, I only used it to save some memory
[06:08] <shadeofgrey> does anyone here use wordpress the blogging applicatiuon excessively?
[06:08] <cpsalvestrini> the problem used to happen with the drivers and firmware for ipw2200 provided with ubuntu
[06:08] <brendonjt> xchat is better than xchat-gnome
[06:08] <bruenig> what is the difference
[06:08] <ajhtiredwolf_> brendonjt: i agree
[06:08] <viator> 200 he has doubles etc
[06:09] <shadeofgrey> xchat-gnome blows rancid ardvark nuts
[06:09] <ajhtiredwolf_> brendonjt: i am using xchat gnome and dont like it at all
[06:09] <brendonjt> uninstall it and install xchat
[06:09] <cpsalvestrini> no problem with joining WPA network with NetworkManager
[06:09] <bruenig> i haven't installed it
[06:09] <Remy> hey guys, I'm trying to setup putty so it forwards X11 images to my machine, it asks for an X display location... what would that be on my ubuntu ?
[06:09] <cpsalvestrini> which is an awesome app
[06:09] <shadeofgrey> ajhtiredwolf_; apt-get remove xchat-gnome --purge
[06:09] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: anyway, do apt-cache search mozilla|less
[06:09] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: and look for your plugin
[06:09] <shadeofgrey> ajhtiredwolf_; apt-get install xchat
[06:09] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: im using firefox though not mozilla
[06:09] <pestilence> Remy, putty on windows?
[06:10] <Remy> pestilence - ubuntu
[06:10] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_: that needs "sudo "
[06:10] <pestilence> Remy, don't use putty on ubuntu....just use the terminal
[06:10] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: right, but the title might be mozilla-something if you didn't see it when you searched for firefox
[06:10] <pestilence> Remy, then type "ssh -X user@host
[06:10] <cpsalvestrini> but the network connection sometimes would just conk out after a random period of time
[06:10] <Remy> hmk
[06:10] <pestilence> Remy, errr "ssh -X user@host"
[06:10] <pestilence> :)
[06:10] <pestilence> the -X forwards X connections over the ssh connection
[06:11] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: it should be sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:11] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: sweet. do that then
[06:11] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: but when i do that, it doesnt work i get an error
[06:11] <cpsalvestrini> i have just upgradedd to the latest ieee80211, ipw2200 and firmware, but I'd like to know if in fact the versions I have are the latest ones
[06:11] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: try it
[06:11] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: what error?
[06:11] <Remy> thanks pestilence :-)
[06:11] <bruenig_> !info flashplugin-nonfree
[06:11] <pestilence> Remy, np

[06:12] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: Building dependency tree... Done
[06:12] <ajhtiredwolf_> E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree
[06:12] <bruenig_> ok you guys are certain he has multiverse enabled?
[06:12] <cpsalvestrini> btw speaking of plugins
[06:12] <ladydoor> bruenig_: he did if he followed my pastebin
[06:12] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_: did the "update" pass this time?
[06:12] <ladydoor> bruenig_: *sources.list
[06:12] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: maybe in ifferent repository
[06:12] <ajhtiredwolf_> josestefan: yes
[06:12] <bruenig_> it is in multiverse
[06:13] <cpsalvestrini> easyubuntu gets flashplayer and sun java installed
[06:13] <viator> NoMachine nx server
[06:13] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_, re-post the sources to the bin
[06:13] <viator> is quick
[06:13] <cpsalvestrini> on ubuntuguide there are the instructions to use easyubuntu
[06:13] <ajhtiredwolf_> josestefan:  my uh... what?
[06:13] <kitche> viator: do you mean freenx since you have to pay for nomachine version
[06:14] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: your /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:14] <viator> x2
[06:14] <viator> yeah freenx
[06:14] <bruenig_> cpsalvestrini, suggesting a solution where he doesn't understand why it didn't work seems stupid. "Click this and it will do it for you" while true is not really the spirit of linux and certainly will not help in the future
[06:15] <Ratlump> Does anyone know or can direct me to how to activate or use the built-in memory card slot in my laptop?
[06:15] <cpsalvestrini> sorry about that bruenig_
[06:15] <pestilence> Ratlump, what happens when you put a card in it
[06:15] <Ratlump> Nothing.
[06:15] <ajhtiredwolf_> irawan: hah... ould you give me the command? I cant get it to open, im useless
[06:16] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: less /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:16] <ocelot_>  I have installed ndiswrapper with the right drivers for my card, typed modprobe ndiswrapper and it still does not work---what could be possibly wrong?????
[06:16] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: then go back to pastebin and copy it in there
[06:16] <ladydoor> ocelot_: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[06:16] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: you should have the 'deb http://.......... dapper multiverse'
[06:17] <cwillu> well, #ubuntu's batting 0 for 3 for me today.  Didn't even swing at the lob I threw :)  Maybe I'll try a fast ball:
[06:17] <kitche> ocelot_: does ndiswrapper say driver present hardware present
[06:17] <pestilence> Ratlump, try running these commands
[06:17] <pestilence> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22206
[06:17] <cwillu> is there any way to force an app to not use more than a certain amount of resident memory?
[06:17] <ajhtiredwolf_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22207
[06:17] <Ratlump> pestilence: Ok, thanks!
[06:17] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: or all in one line 'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper main restricted universe multiverse'
[06:17] <ajhtiredwolf_> irawan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22207
[06:17] <crimsun> cwillu: limits.
[06:17] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22207
[06:17] <ladydoor> irawan: that's the one i gave him
[06:17] <pestilence> Ratlump, no guarantees :)  but it's how i get usb keys working.
[06:17] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: thanks
[06:17] <cwillu> !find limits
[06:17] <ocelot_> kitche yes it does when I type ndiswrapper -l, that's why I don't understand why its not working
[06:17] <ladydoor> :-)

[06:18] <mondo> What program do I use to video chat?
[06:18] <pestilence> ocelot_, what do the logs tell you
[06:18] <ocelot_> ladydoor, i did the sudo, same problem...
[06:18] <bruenig> !amsn
[06:18] <ubotu> amsn: An MSN messenger written in tcl. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.95-1 (dapper), package size 2233 kB, installed size 7852 kB
[06:18] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok, you need to make sure that "multiverse" is all on one line
[06:18] <pestilence> ocelot_, right after you modprobe ndiswrapper
[06:18] <mondo> Danke schoen.
[06:18] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: how do i open that file with gedit?
[06:18] <ocelot_> pestilence, it says nothing after that
[06:18] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:18] <briantumor> hi
[06:18] <pestilence> ocelot_, bummer.
[06:18] <ocelot_> it just accepts the modprobe and nothing else is written
[06:19] <briantumor> where do i get the livecd for 6.06?
[06:19] <pestilence> ocelot_, nothing in /var/log/syslog?
[06:19] <mondo> exit
[06:19] <ladydoor> ocelot_: aha. now, try sudo ifdown eth0
[06:19] <kitche> ocelot_: well it won't say anything
[06:19] <mondo> whoops.
[06:19] <pestilence> or /var/log/messages?
[06:19] <bruenig> but ladydoor, "gksudo gedit gives me an error"
[06:19] <ladydoor> ocelot_: and then sudo ifup wlan0
[06:19] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_, you need multiverse on the "dapper-updates" line too
[06:19] <briantumor> anyone?
[06:19] <ladydoor> bruenig: does it?
[06:19] <brendonjt> what  program does voice chat  like on winblows msn messenger
[06:19] <pestilence> briantumor, ubuntu.org?
[06:19] <JoseStefan> ladydoor, he is on kubuntu
[06:19] <bruenig> it does give an error, I assumed that would be his response
[06:19] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: ah
[06:19] <bruenig> it gives an insignificant error but still works
[06:19] <briantumor> pestilence, i did, but i can't find it
[06:19] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: so i have it wrong?
[06:20] <ajhtiredwolf_> Josestefan: i have it wrong?
[06:20] <pestilence> briantumor, "download"
[06:20] <ladydoor> bruenig: oh. weird.
[06:20] <bruenig> (gedit:23619): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[06:20] <bruenig> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[06:20] <bruenig> that is common from what I have read on psychocats
[06:20] <Ratlump> pestilence: Actually those commands I already tried.  scsi_mod is loaded already because of my DVD drive, and I just tried to load usb_storage before I came here.  I just tried it again with sdb1 sdc1 sdd1 sde1 and sdf1 with no luck.  sda is my hard drive, so I assume it wouldn't be that...
[06:20] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ok, add the words "universe multiverse" after the next block of two lines without #'s in front of them
[06:20] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: how about 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'?
[06:20] <briantumor> pestilence, i'm there
[06:20] <bruenig> brendonojet, perhaps amsn
[06:20] <JoseStefan> guys, does kubuntu have gedit?
[06:21] <pestilence> briantumor, http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/
[06:21] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: and then i guess paste it again :-)
[06:21] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: well if you're not sure, just add 'deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper multiverse' in a new line
[06:21] <ocelot_> nothing in the syslog
[06:21] <ladydoor> JoseStefan: i think he installed it
[06:21] <pestilence> Ratlump, bummer.
[06:21] <briantumor> pestilence, yeah... which is the livecd?
[06:21] <pestilence> Ratlump, did you search the forums?
[06:21] <bruenig> JoseStefan, the default editor is kate in kubuntu
[06:21] <Ratlump> pestilence: Yup...  I'll try again...
[06:21] <ladydoor> irawan: that line's already in there...this is for "dapper updates"
[06:21] <viator> why not have him copy and paste
[06:21] <viator> a sources.list
[06:21] <viator> its easier
[06:21] <eL_PuaS> alguien me podria decir que paso con mi panel, antes de empezar a modificarlo y agregarle lo necesario para mi, cuando minimizaba un programa como amule o amsn, se iban a la bandeja del sistema, ahora, ya ninguno lo hace, se pone como que un iconito muy pequeo (del tamao similar al que se ponia en el panel) en a parte superior izquierda del escritorio, como soluciono esto ????
[06:21] <pestilence> briantumor, i don't mean to be rude, but have you thought about reading the page?  it's quite descriptive
[06:21] <bruenig> JoseStefan, you could add gedit if you wanted

[06:22] <cwillu> crimsun, limits.conf ?
[06:22] <briantumor> i don't see any mention of a live cd
[06:22] <ocelot_> I suppose my modem won't work with linux at all
[06:22] <cafuego> eL_PuaS: Engels alsjeblieft.
[06:22] <irawan> ladydoor: no, update is in dapper-updates
[06:22] <pestilence> !desktopcd
[06:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about desktopcd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:22] <ladydoor> irawan: right.
[06:23] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: tell you what, just overwrite your sources.list with this one :-)
[06:23] <bruenig> !install
[06:23] <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
[06:23] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22210
[06:23] <pestilence> briantumor, read the description of desktop cd.
[06:23] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: but that has all the weird numbers in it
[06:23] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: ignore the numbers
 eL_PuaS: Engels alsjeblieft. <<-- eh   o_O??
[06:23] <pestilence> briantumor, it doesn't explicitly say "live cd" but it basically tells you that it is in fact, the live cd
[06:23] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: copy/paste everything else
[06:23] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: your sources.list seems ok now
[06:23] <cafuego> eL_PuaS: I rest my case.
[06:23] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: save it
[06:24] <briantumor> really?
[06:24] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: then sudo apt-get update
[06:24] <bruenig> briantumor, basically the desktop cd is a live cd that you can choose to install from

[06:24] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_, yours looks ok to me
[06:24] <tomasz27> I installed beagle. What command do I use to run it?
[06:24] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: how much of it should i overwrite with that?
[06:24] <cafuego> beagled --bg; beagle-search --icon &
[06:24] <pestilence> tomasz27, dpkg -L beagle will tell you what it installed in /usr/bin
[06:24] <JoseStefan> ladydoor, look at his last paste: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22209
[06:25] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: no need to overwrite, just try save your last, and sudo apt-get update
[06:25] <tomasz27> thx
[06:25] <viator> lady maybe he wants somthing more like this if he wants nonfree etc
[06:25] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: don't overwrite anything. forget it. somebody asked that somebody post a sources.list for you to copy
[06:25] <viator> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22211
[06:25] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: so i did
[06:25] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: but it turns out yours is fine
[06:25] <cafuego> tomasz27: The first half starts the beagle index server, the second gives you a looking glass icon in the panel. Click it.
[06:25] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_, save it, and do "sudo apt-get update"
[06:25] <viator> ersae everything in the sources.list file and paste that oen

[06:26] <ajhtiredwolf_> E: Couldn't find package flashplugin-nonfree

[06:26] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: is that something to do with the us.archive thing?
[06:26] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: well...i know it exists. did you get an error on sudo apt-get update?
[06:26] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: no

[06:27] <ajhtiredwolf_> that gives me nothing
[06:28] <ketsugi> Does Ubuntu do some kind of DNS caching?
[06:28] <brendonjt> itsme:  hi there
[06:28] <itsme> i have a plea for ubuntu distribution developers
[06:28] <ajhtiredwolf_> no package found
[06:28] <ketsugi> If so, how do I reset it?
[06:28] <ladydoor> !flashplugin-nonfree
[06:28] <pestilence> ketsugi, no, but your dns server may

[06:28] <irawan> ajhtiredwolf_: open your /etc/apt/sources.list again, remove the 'us' in the url
[06:28] <JoseStefan> ajhtiredwolf_, could you put the output of "sudo apt-get update" on the paste bin?
[06:28] <itsme> I though that I found on ubuntu the perfect distribution for my new machines at work
[06:28] <itsme> After all i have been using it at home without any problems
[06:28] <ketsugi> pestilence: the funny thing is, I see my router (linux based) resolving a domain name to the new IP, but my computer which is connected through the router still resolves to the old IP
[06:29] <ketsugi> it makes no sense at all
[06:29] <itsme> Then, I install Dapper x86_64... and kaboom !
[06:29] <itsme> The 32 bit compatibility libraries are all broken
[06:29] <pestilence> ketsugi, what is in /etc/resolv.conf?
[06:29] <bruenig> ajhtiredwolf_, you aren't using 64 bit are you?
[06:29] <pestilence> ketsugi, does your router have the same /etc/resolv.conf as your ubuntu machine?
[06:29] <ajhtiredwolf_> josestefan: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22213
[06:29] <ajhtiredwolf_> bruenig: yes
[06:29] <itsme> missing libs here and there. Cannot compile my main product at work. Have waisted lots of hours. Please fix 64 bits !!!!!
[06:29] <ketsugi> resolv.conf says use the router as a nameserver
[06:30] <bruenig> ajhtiredwolf_, yeah flash does not exist on 64 bit at least not conventionally
[06:30] <ketsugi> therefore, I'm confused
[06:30] <pestilence> ketsugi, on both machines?
[06:30] <ketsugi> lemme check the router
[06:30] <ladydoor> bruenig: aha! brilliant
[06:30] <itsme> Example: the library /usr/lib32/libGLU.so is really 64 bits !!!
[06:30] <zeckOr> hi
[06:30] <irawan> bruenig: I learned something today :)
[06:30] <ketsugi> No, my router's nameservers are my ISP's DNS servers
[06:31] <zeckOr> i hav a pig prob
[06:31] <itsme> So I cannot compile 32bits on Dapper64
[06:31] <ladydoor> ajhtiredwolf_: sorry you had to go through all that for nothing :-(
[06:31] <ajhtiredwolf_> ladydoor: nothing I can do?
[06:31] <ladydoor> bruenig: yeah, i learned something too
[06:31] <itsme> Also, cannot run google-earth !!!!
[06:31] <viator> yeah run firefox/flash
[06:31] <viator> in wine
[06:31] <ladydoor> bruenig: you said "conventionally?"
[06:31] <itsme> because libXcursor.o (32 bits) is nowhere to be found
[06:31] <JoseStefan> cant he use libs32 ?
[06:31] <zeckOr> firefox is very  slowly  60 sec for a page ^^ why????????
[06:31] <itsme> Any advise, help, comfort ?
[06:31] <brendonjt> viator:  you can get flash for ff in linux
[06:31] <pestilence> ketsugi, there's your answer ;)
[06:31] <bruenig> ajhtiredwolf_, go to the forums ubntuforums.org, there is a howto on how to get it going
[06:32] <viator> no not for 64bit
[06:32] <ajhtiredwolf_> bruenig: where? i looked for it already
[06:32] <ketsugi> pestilence: no but see, my router is getting resolves from the ISP, and my computer is getting resolves from the router
[06:32] <pestilence> ketsugi, your router is caching...but not actually using itself to resolve names.
[06:32] <ketsugi> ahhh
[06:32] <bruenig> viator, yes you can, you just have to use the 32 bit version of it
[06:32] <ketsugi> any idea how I might stop that, then?
[06:32] <itsme> hello?
[06:32] <ketsugi> maybe I'll just reset the router?
[06:32] <pestilence> ketsugi, stop the caching?
[06:32] <x_O> Hi! Haha, itsme!
[06:32] <ketsugi> How would I do that/
[06:32] <x_O> ... hmm. >_<
[06:32] <ketsugi> ?
[06:32] <pestilence> ketsugi, that's got to be an option in /etc/bind
[06:32] <itsme> hi! Did you read my plea ?
[06:33] <viator> i was under that impression
[06:33] <pestilence> but i can't tell you exactly wehre to find it
[06:33] <x_O> itsme: no, I didn't. What do you need?
[06:33] <ketsugi> no such file
[06:33] <bruenig> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202537&highlight=flash+java+64+bit
[06:33] <pestilence> ketsugi, or you could just edit your /etc/resolv.conf to use your isp's nameservers
[06:33] <sky123> pestilince: tried the apt-get command you pasted earlier...no go...kinda stuck on this one :(
[06:33] <bruenig> ajhtiredwolf_, ^^^
[06:33] <itsme> I need 32 bits compatibility libraries on x86_64 please.
[06:33] <ketsugi> yeah I'll probably just do that
[06:33] <ketsugi> thanks
[06:33] <itsme> And I need them for yesterday ;)
[06:33] <pestilence> sky123, hrmm...that shoulda reinstalled the config files
[06:33] <ajhtiredwolf_> bruenig: thanks
[06:33] <spiderworm> hi all, im trying to fix some compiz problems, and it turns out I don't have a ~/.gconf/%gconf-tree.xml file, and i have made several changes with gconf-editor.... anyone know why this might be happening?
[06:34] <x_O> itsme: Oh, sorry I don't know how to help you on that one. I don't know anything off the top of my head about anything relating to 64 bit stuff.
[06:34] <ajhtiredwolf_> ok thank you everyone
[06:34] <JoseStefan> spiderworm, try #ubuntu-xgl
[06:34] <ajhtiredwolf_> il save that and do it tomorrow
[06:34] <itsme> Can anybody here do a test for me on x86_64 Dapper ?
[06:34] <ajhtiredwolf_> gnight
[06:34] <sky123> pestilence: wonder if nagios-common also needs to be removed and reinstalled along with things..
[06:34] <infidel_> where is the kernel source?
[06:34] <ladydoor> ajay: goodnight
[06:34] <itsme> thx x_O
[06:34] <pestilence> sky123, try it ;)
[06:34] <x_O> itsme: What are you trying to do though? You have 64bit version of Ubuntu and want to run 32bit programs?
[06:34] <irawan> gnoght
[06:34] <spiderworm> JoseStefan: thanks, im in there, but the fact that %gconf-tree.xml file is missing has nothing to do with xgl or compiz
[06:34] <pestilence> sky123, but give it the options i gave you previously
[06:34] <irawan> gnight
[06:34] <itsme> x_O: Both run and compile. Easy to do if you have all libraries. Done in FC5, FC4 and Madriva 2006
[06:35] <cafuego> spiderworm: Yah, the live version lives in ~/.gconfd
[06:35] <irawan> it's 11.__ am here
[06:35] <spiderworm> cafuego: let me check in there
[06:35] <itsme> For example, to force compile 32 bits on x86_64 with gcc you pass the "-m32" flag and point to the right libraries
[06:35] <x_O> itsme: So if I understand correctly, you're just in search of the 32-bit libraries for a 64-bit Ubuntu install?
[06:35] <bruenig> itsme, looks like chroot is what you want http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575 never used this, I installed the i386 instead of dealing with 64 bit
[06:36] <BHSPitMonkey> $ sudo mount -o loop /media/hda8/sibel.iso /media/iso/
[06:36] <BHSPitMonkey> mount: could not find any device /dev/loop#
[06:36] <itsme> x_O: No no, not chroot, just the prescence of the libraries
[06:36] <BHSPitMonkey> any ideas on why that mount doesn't work?
[06:36] <tomasz27> I got beagle working. thanks ALL
[06:36] <itsme> For example, in x86_64 ubuntu there are /usr/lib64 /usr/lib32 directories and others in similar ways
[06:36] <pestilence> BHSPitMonkey, modprobe loop?
[06:36] <jman888> Can anybody help me. I have my 3 os's Installed on my drive but When i choose to boot i dont see ubuntu as a option. How do i add ubuntu to the menu (I think its grub or something)
[06:36] <x_O> Sigh, I won't bother with 64-bit until I either A) Get a Gaming PC, lol, or B) Get a Mac ... with teh 64bits... I've decided I want both though, lol. Linux can stay on my half-broken Sony Vaio, heh.
[06:36] <itsme> they contain the 32 and 64 bit versions of libraries.
[06:37] <pestilence> BHSPitMonkey, i mean, sudo ifup lo
[06:37] <pestilence> BHSPitMonkey, hell, i don't know :)
[06:37] <iliketoprogram> heya!    what do i need to look up to learn about changing the number of desktops and number of screens per desktop, in elightenment?  thanks!
[06:37] <itsme> In other distros, they call the 32 bits the "32 bits compatibility libraries". Nvidia also calls them that
[06:37] <bruenig> jman888, the menu.lst is located in /boot/grub/menu.lst, edit accordingly
[06:37] <BHSPitMonkey> pestilence, it's all right :P
[06:37] <itsme> I filed bugs already
[06:38] <tomasz27> how do I change the Firefox icon from the blue to Firefox icon
[06:38] <itsme> Another thing I found is that the file /etc/ld.so.conf  is missing !
[06:38] <itsme> Why is that ?
[06:38] <BHSPitMonkey> tomasz27, right click on the link, go to Properties, and look in /usr/share/pixmaps for the icon
[06:38] <itsme> That file is where the system builds the cache of libraries and locations
[06:38] <x_O> itsme: lol, don't think Ubuntu is the best OS for dealing with 64bits
[06:39] <itsme> Oh man,
[06:39] <BHSPitMonkey> x_O, is any?
[06:39] <itsme> I though it was... and was made a fool
[06:39] <itsme> Mandriva 2006 is pretty good
[06:39] <spiderworm> cafuego: well I'm in gconf-editor and theres nothing in ~/.gconfd/ other than saved_state
[06:39] <itsme> I have used it with minimal (not none) problems
[06:39] <x_O> BHSPitMonkey: I have no idea, but he said he had no problem with like 4 other distros, Fedora I think?
[06:39] <itsme> Also 6.06 kernel version 2.6.15 is too old for my hardware
[06:39] <cafuego> spiderworm: Yes, you don't edit those files unless 'gconfd' is not running (ie: you're logged out)
[06:40] <bruenig> tomasz27, I have s cript that will do it, shall I send it to you
[06:40] <itsme> I am just venting here so you guys are aware and can help work out these
[06:40] <x_O> Wonder what kernel version I have. I know there's a console command for it..
[06:40] <kitche> x_O uname -a
[06:40] <ladydoor> x_O: uname -r
[06:40] <x_O> thanks.
[06:40] <kitche> well there -r also
[06:40] <itsme> yep
[06:40] <kitche> I use -a myself more detail :)
[06:40] <ladydoor> kitche: haha
[06:41] <itsme> I just posted some bugs reports to this effect
[06:41] <jman888> bruenig, Can you help me figure it out?
[06:41] <bruenig> jman888, you can pastebin the menu.lst
[06:41] <itsme> I feel so abandoned.... when is the next release of ubuntu ?
[06:41] <ic56> BHSPitMonkey: your /dev/loop# error from mount(8) is probably caused by the absense of sufficient loop devices.  There's a limited number of them.  Each active mount consumes one.  There may be a way to increase them.
[06:41] <ladydoor> itsme: october
[06:41] <itsme> Argh!
[06:42] <x_O> Hmm. Wonder what upgrading kernel would do...
[06:42] <x_O> More features? Or just fixes.. or more hardware support?
[06:42] <itsme> Is there a way to find out what kernel versions are going to be included...?
[06:42] <itsme> Adept only shows cariations of 2.6.15
[06:42] <BlueEagle> x_o: That's what the changelog is for. :)
[06:42] <ladydoor> !edgy
[06:42] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[06:42] <BHSPitMonkey> ic56, look like there's 9 mounts that -aren't- hard disks.
[06:42] <itsme> I actually need 2.6.17 (at least) to support my hardware
[06:42] <omnid> Guys
[06:42] <ladydoor> itsme: see ubotu's post --^
[06:42] <omnid> stuff keeps closing
[06:42] <omnid> without warning
[06:42] <x_O> BlueEagle: Hmm, what usually changes? Just ..system stuff most ppl don't care about?
[06:42] <itsme> hmmm
[06:43] <itsme> Im headed there
[06:43] <omnid> Opera was doing it and now GAIM
[06:43] <dmsantam> schedule
[06:43] <omnid> This is silly
[06:43] <ladydoor> itsme: sweet
[06:43] <redrose> how do i refresh my Applications bar? in the system part, nothing is showing up under the administration part, even when i run it as root
[06:43] <dmsantam> !schedule
[06:43] <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
[06:43] <kitche> omnid: any errors in xorg.log
[06:43] <bruenig> omnid, stop hitting that x in the top right of the window silly
[06:43] <leoncamel_> hi, folks. how can I install gcc-3.2 into Ubuntu 5.10 ?
[06:43] <omnid> Where is xorg.log located?
[06:43] <BHSPitMonkey> /var/log
[06:43] <ic56> BHSPitMonkey: makes sense.  Maybe the loop(6x) manpage will shed some light on how to solve the problem
[06:43] <BlueEagle> x_o: The usual stuff for minor revisions are bug fixes and security holes.
[06:43] <x_O> I heard it's better to install some things from SOURCE ... why? Like, for instance WINE.
[06:43] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, you probably want build-essential
[06:43] <rayna> hi, how can I use scp to copy files from one pc to another without needing a password (I want to incorporate it in a script to do backups accross our LAN) I have tried following a guide but I get lost...
[06:43] <Warbo>  /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:44] <ketsugi> I dreamed that Edgy release got pushed back two months, making it Ubuntu 6.12, and that everyone was calling it Ubuntu Christmas Edition
[06:44] <x_O> BlueEagle: Oh
[06:44] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, apt-get install build-essential
[06:44] <BlueEagle> x_o: the usual stuff for minor releases are drivers and the usual stuff for major releases are features.
[06:44] <x_O> dmsantam: What does that command do? What's build essential?
[06:44] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, oh, you want 3.2 in particular?
[06:44] <redrose> how do i refresh my Applications bar? in the system part, nothing is showing up under the administration part, even when i run it as root
[06:44] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, i already install that package.
[06:44] <bruenig> x_O, for wine, the idea is that you could get the latest source and that the repositories would have an older version, however there are some "bleedin edge wine repositories" that have the latest one
[06:44] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, yes. I want install gcc-3.2.
[06:44] <atsugnam> rayna, you could setup ssh keys
[06:44] <BlueEagle> x_o: and the usual stuff for versions are total rewrites tbh. :)
[06:45] <jman888> bruenig, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22214
[06:45] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, 3.3 is available, but 3.2 you'll have to get from elsewhere
[06:45] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, shall I install gcc-3.2 from scartch ?
[06:45] <rayna> atsugnam, yes that is what this guide says, but it says to generate a key and then copy it to the authorized_keys file but none of my PC's have a file called that?
[06:45] <redrose> What's the kernel version ubuntu is using?
[06:45] <jman888> bruenig, I figured you would need both.
[06:45] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, looks like you have to
[06:45] <x_O> leoncamel_: Well, I want to install WINE from source. Know of a good tutorial?
[06:45] <dmsantam> redrose, 6.06 uses 2.6.15
[06:45] <redrose> mine is saying 2.6.13, how do i update it?
[06:45] <dmsantam> rayna, create the file
[06:45] <kitche> x_o ./configure make make install
[06:45] <BlueEagle> x_o: Why do you want to install wine from source when wine is availible in the repositories?
[06:45] <dmsantam> rayna, chances are you want authorized_keys2
[06:45] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, how can I install from scratch ?
[06:45] <x_O> leoncamel_: It's... that simple?
[06:45] <rayna> dmsantam, uh huh, let me try that. Thanks :D
[06:46] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell x_o about easysource
[06:46] <dmsantam> redrose, apt-get install linux-686 (assuming you have a 686)
[06:46] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, ?
[06:46] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, go to gcc site, grab the source, and follow the instructions
[06:46] <x_O> !easysource
[06:46] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[06:46] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, why do you need 3.2
[06:46] <x_O> Hmm, I thought there was a bot in here that gave you info for some things.
[06:46] <x_O> Guess not for that lol. Unless I didnt' use the right command.
[06:46] <BlueEagle> x_o: there is.
[06:46] <rayna> dmsantam, now I get "connection closed by IP" - lost connection
[06:46] <dmsantam> x_O, ubotu
[06:46] <bruenig> jman888, what partition is ubuntu on?
[06:47] <redrose> dmsantam, it's recommending I download Lilo, should I>?
[06:47] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, hmm, there are some library already compiled with gcc-3.2.
[06:47] <BlueEagle> x_o: and unless you've ignored ubotu he has also sendt you a msg.
[06:47] <jman888> Im pretty sure hda2. I made the partition directly after windows.
[06:47] <dmsantam> rayna, ssh-keyget -t dsa; scp .ssh/id_dsa.pub some_server:~/.ssh/authorized_keys2
[06:47] <jman888> bruenig, How can i check?
[06:47] <dmsantam> rayna, try those steps
[06:47] <BlueEagle> jman888: sudo fdisk -l   <= that will list all partitions
[06:47] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, the libstdc++.so.5 caused that
[06:47] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, what do you mean
[06:47] <x_O> BlueEagle, I see it. On the webpage now.
[06:47] <redrose> How do i get more options under System->Administration?
[06:48] <rayna> dmsantam, sorry that doesnt make sense to me :(
[06:48] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, why are you using that lib then
[06:48] <Wiseguy> hey guys i just installed the newest jdk and i added the JDK directory to /opt... how do i add /opt to my PATH now so i can just use "java" rather than specifying the whole directory?
[06:48] <BlueEagle> x_o: There you can enable the repositories for wine and have it installed.
[06:48] <dmsantam> rayna, ssh-keyget -t dsa
[06:48] <omnid> None of the logs mention GAIM or Opera
[06:48] <dmsantam> rayna, type that from your home dir
[06:48] <dmsantam> ssh-keygen
[06:48] <bruenig> jman888, you don't know what partition it is installed on? that is kind of odd. Open up gparted or something and try to see if you remember, I suppose you could mount all the partitions and look through them to see which one is ubuntu but that takes a lot of work
[06:48] <dmsantam> rayna, sigh. let me try again. do this: ssh-keygen -t dsa
[06:48] <dmsantam> rayna, done that yet?
[06:48] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, hmm, I am working on it. :(, so I have to.
[06:48] <BlueEagle> x_o: As a general rule of thumb: When packages are in the repositories and there are no critical issues that require it it's just as good to install the .deb as it is to compile from source.
[06:48] <jman888> I know its 34.18gigs...
[06:48] <rayna> dmsantam, ok done
[06:49] <dmsantam> leoncamel_, you should use a better C++ lib! :P
[06:49] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, If I can't slove it. I have to reinstall redhat 9. :(
[06:49] <RMorris84> what should i use to burn an .iso?
[06:49] <leoncamel_> dmsantam, how ugly it is.
[06:49] <dmsantam> rayna, now do this from your home dir: scp .ssh/id_dsa.pub some_server:~/.ssh/authorized_keys2
[06:49] <rayna> RMorris84, gnomebaker
[06:49] <jman888> bruenig, BRB i gotta log in as root(Linspire doesnt give people that option if not logged in as root :( )
[06:49] <dmsantam> rayna, where "some_server" is the name of the server
[06:49] <BlueEagle> ubotu: tell rmorris84 about burning
[06:49] <x_O> BlueEagle: Ah, cool thanks... what would be a critical issue? How would I know if it's one or not?
[06:49] <bruenig> jman888, ok, just to tell you I know it is not partition 1 or 4 as those are in the menu.lst
[06:49] <BlueEagle> x_o: The homepage of the application in question usually will tell you.
[06:50] <Madpilot> RMorris84, in Ubuntu, just right-click on your ISO and select Burn To Disc - done
[06:50] <rayna> dmsantam, ok, done!
[06:50] <x_O> BlueEagle: Oh ok, well I for the most part just apt-get install my stuff.
[06:50] <redrose> How do i get more options under System->Administration?
[06:50] <BlueEagle> x_o: There are also sites on the net dedicated to telling people about vunerabillities.
[06:50] <dmsantam> rayna, now try and ssh to the machine
[06:50] <paradizelost> hey all, what is the CLI command on Xubuntu to do a hibernation?
[06:50] <rayna> dmsantam, ok it works, thank you so much!
[06:50] <dmsantam> redrose, you need to give yourself permissions
[06:50] <dmsantam> rayna, np
[06:50] <dmsantam> redrose, run users-admin
[06:50] <Geoffrey2> is there a decent application in the repos to edit/create pdf files?
[06:51] <dmsantam> redrose, then give your user more permissions
[06:51] <paradizelost> Geoffrey2: openoffice lets you create them
[06:51] <Madpilot> Geoffrey2, Scribus good for desktop publishing & PDF creation
[06:51] <paradizelost> Geoffrey2: there's an export to pdf button
[06:51] <jman8888> bruenig, Ok what do i run?
[06:51] <redrose> dmsantam, I know it's wrong, but i'm running as root
[06:51] <CRASH69> hi. is there any more accurate/specific way of calculate swap size/priority than "double the ram", I have heard about some equation involving the processor or so, I had google but I can not reach it
[06:51] <dmsantam> redrose, that's fine
[06:52] <bruenig> jman8888, what is the partition number?
[06:52] <dmsantam> oh, you mean logged into X as root?
[06:52] <x_O> BlueEagle: In the sources list... what's the SOURCES repos for?
[06:52] <Geoffrey2> paradizelost, it does? great... how about copying text already in a pdf over to OpenOffice for editing...would copy and paste work acceptably?
[06:52] <x_O> BlueEagle: as in, what would I need them for?
[06:52] <redrose> dmsantam, but it still won't give me more the 3 options even though i've selected 12 for that admin menu
[06:52] <bruenig> use gparted or something and figure it out. If you know it is whatever GB, open up gparted or anything you have and see which one it is
[06:52] <BlueEagle> x_o: that would be for the source codes needed to build the packages yourself.
[06:52] <BlueEagle> x_o: (ie highly optional)
[06:52] <x_O> BlueEagle: So it doesn't matter if I check it or not? Just.. there if I want to use it later on?
[06:52] <BlueEagle> x_o: In most cases you don't need them.
[06:52] <ladydoor> Geoffrey2: there's always pdftotext
[06:53] <ladydoor> Geoffrey2: if you installed xpdf
[06:53] <BlueEagle> x_o: I leave mine unchecked.
[06:53] <x_O> BlueEagle: Oh ok. I will too then, since I don't know much about it yet.
[06:53] <paradizelost> Geoffrey2: possibly
[06:55] <rayna> is there a flag in 'scp' that you can use to automatically overwrite files at a destination?
[06:56] <ladydoor> rayna: i didn't see one in the man page
[06:56] <rayna> ladydoor, neither did I :(
[06:56] <ladydoor> rayna: :-(

[06:58] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[06:58] <richee> :)
[06:58] <x_O> Hmm. Firefox ... died, lol.
[06:58] <jman8888> What kernel does ubuntu 5.10 use?
[06:58] <x_O> lol. Ah, cuz .. it installed updates.
[06:58] <bruenig> is there any place, I know there is the uname command, but is there any place where I could find the kernel name in a file or something
[06:59] <ladydoor> bruenig: /lib/modules/$(uname -r) is a dir
[07:00] <x_O> I just installed some system updates - how important is it to reboot vs logging out ... or does logging out just kill the X Session?
[07:00] <viator> uname -a    or
[07:00] <bruenig> ladydoor, I have ubuntu mounted on another OS, but nevermind it is in /boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-26-386
[07:00] <BlueEagle> bruenig: /proc/version perhaps
[07:00] <ladydoor> bruenig: that too :-)
[07:00] <JoseStefan> x_O, depends on the updates, usually killing X is enough
[07:00] <RedRose> ITems are not showing up under System->Administration, even though I'm running as root, can anyone help me?
[07:01] <viator>  /usr/src
[07:01] <x_O> JoseStefan: Well, this is fresh copy of Ubuntu 6.06 so... the automatic update manager said I needed updates, so I installed them.
[07:01] <ladydoor> RedRose: you mean you logged on to your graphikal user interface as root?
[07:01] <richee> bruenig: uname -a
[07:01] <RedRose> yes
[07:01] <cptmorgan> anyone know if you can do a install without loading x on the desktop install cd ? my ati card hangs
[07:01] <ladydoor> RedRose: you should be logged in as your user. you can sudo or su to root if necessary from there.
[07:01] <JoseStefan> x_O, that probably included kernel updates, in that case you will need a reboot
[07:01] <ladydoor> RedRose: it's *not* a good idea to be root if you don't *absolutely have* to
[07:02] <RedRose> But none the less, it's still a problem no matter what user i use
[07:02] <x_O> JoseStefan: ah ok.
[07:02] <x_O> lol, freakin air conditioning unit keeps freezing over.. lol.
[07:02] <RedRose> ladydoor, But none the less, it's still a problem no matter what user i use
[07:02] <ladydoor> cptmorgan: get the alternative installation cd
[07:02] <ladydoor> RedRose: oh. weird :-(
[07:02] <x_O> every time it does, i turn the temp up a degree.. hmm... now its on like 70 argh
[07:02] <cptmorgan> ladydoor: thx
[07:02] <RedRose> Yeah,
[07:02] <ladydoor> cptmorgan: np. you can find it in the same spot you found the livecd :-)
[07:02] <RedRose> !apache2
[07:02] <ubotu> apache2: next generation, scalable, extendable web server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.55-4ubuntu2.1 (dapper), package size 34 kB, installed size 80 kB
[07:02] <RedRose> !apache2-ssl
[07:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apache2-ssl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:03] <caliaga> buenas
[07:03] <ladydoor> RedRose: you still should log in as your regular user...
[07:03] <x_O> im rebooting, wish me luck lol maybe my hdd won't crash this time
[07:03] <RedRose> I will, but I still would like to fix my problem
[07:03] <caliaga> alguien con buenas reglas de iptables para bloquear msn?
[07:03] <Flannel> !es
[07:03] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[07:04] <richee> !Art
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about Art - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:04] <RedRose> is their, say any way to refresh the menu?
[07:04] <BlueEagle> redrose: killall gnome-panel
[07:04] <RedRose> crap, still didn't fix it
[07:05] <BlueEagle> redrose: Then the menu entry is borked or non-exsistant
[07:05] <ladydoor> RedRose: can you edit your panel by right-clicking on it?
[07:05] <RedRose> Yes
[07:05] <cwillu> crimsun:  still there?  Thanks for the pointer;  that file itself didn't quite do what I wanted (limit a single app that I didn't really want another user for), but the docs had a pointer to the bash ulimit command which seems to have slapped firefox down to an appropriate memory usage :)
[07:06] <RedRose> well i use alacarte to check what is selected, and it says about 12 things are, but only 4 show up
[07:06] <ladydoor> RedRose: there may be an option to add the "system" drop-down-menu to it in there...
[07:07] <RedRose> ladydoor, it only shows the same options as alacarte
[07:07] <Amaranth> RedRose: If you're talking about the Administration menu Alacarte doesn't know about the key used to hide items from non-sudo users so it'll say things are showing but they aren't (and you can't make them).
[07:07] <ladydoor> RedRose: ah. that sucks.
[07:08] <RedRose> Amarant, So what you are saying is what? that I HAVE to use sudo to see it?
[07:08] <Amaranth> RedRose: Yep.
[07:09] <Amaranth> RedRose: If the menu item would require you to use sudo to run it (like synaptic) then only users with sudo access can see it.
[07:09] <RedRose> Amarant, Is their any way to disable it? or a run-around?
[07:09] <RedRose> delete sudo? or disable it?
[07:09] <Amaranth> RedRose: No point, you need sudo to run the programs anyway.
[07:09] <ladydoor> RedRose: how about adding yourself to the "admin" group?
[07:09] <RedRose> what program?
[07:10] <Amaranth> any program in Administration that's hidden from you
[07:10] <ladydoor> RedRose: that should allow you to use sudo/gksudo
[07:10] <tigerflyer> i ahve a 2 gig dictionary file and it segfaults after the first line... is there a way i can edit the first line without opening up the whole list?
[07:10] <compengi> have any one installed ubuntu server?
[07:11] <ladydoor> !anyone
[07:11] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:11] <TheGame> haha
[07:11] <TheGame> he was just asking if any1 installed it
[07:11] <cwillu> compengi, what are you trying to do?
[07:11] <ladydoor> *someone* has, i'm sure
[07:11] <cafuego> TheGame: How would we know?
[07:11] <cwillu> TheGame, with the intent no doubt of asking some question about it :)
[07:11] <BlueEagle> thegame: Do you think he's doing a survey? :)
[07:11] <Flannel> TheGame: probably to know who to ask about it
[07:11] <ladydoor> cafuego: statistically speaking, somebody probably has if it exists
[07:12] <TheGame> he could be asking for a survey
[07:12] <cafuego> ladydoor: Yes, but we cna never be sure, can we?
[07:12] <compengi> i'm trying to figure out if the installation is easy
[07:12] <ladydoor> cafuego: somebody built it :-)
[07:12] <cafuego> compengi: Yes, someone has.
[07:12] <tigerflyer> is there a way to edit a HUGE file... without opening the whole thing... nano, vi, etc wont work
[07:12] <cwillu> compengi, it's easy, yes, but it's only a bare installation
[07:12] <TheEnder> hey, i got a really big problem involving ubuntu, can anyone help?
[07:12] <tigerflyer> cause it tries to open the whole file
[07:12] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: how big are we talking?
[07:12] <cafuego> compengi: Yes, it is. Just the standard text based dialog installer. Not hard at all.
[07:13] <tigerflyer> ladydoor, 2 gigs
[07:13] <tigerflyer> its a text file
[07:13] <iter> tigerflyer: text file ?
[07:13] <iter> word
[07:13] <tigerflyer> yes iter
[07:13] <cwillu> compengi, how comfortable are you with the command line, editing from it, etc?
[07:13] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: wow
[07:13] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: have you tried emacs?
[07:13] <kishore> how to load presets for xmms
[07:13] <compengi> cafuego and does it needs alot of configuration?
[07:13] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: actually, that probably won't work
[07:13] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: why do you have a *text file* that takes up 2 gigs???
[07:13] <cwillu> compengi, it should pretty much work out of the box, where 'work'=='sit there and do nothing' :)
[07:13] <cafuego> compengi: That depends entirely on what you intend to do with it.
[07:14] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: that's, like, finnegan's wake right there. or war and peace.
[07:14] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: or something
[07:14] <cwillu> compengi, the server install is basically nothing more than bash, apt-get, and sudo :)
[07:14] <tigerflyer> ladydoor, its a dictionary file
[07:14] <cafuego> ladydoor: war & peace fit in well under 10MB of ascii.
[07:14] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: ahhhhh...
[07:14] <ladydoor> cafuego: oh. lol
[07:14] <tigerflyer> its the biggest i could find
[07:14] <compengi> cwillu i got it :)
[07:14] <TheEnder> I'm using a really slow computer right now.  On my other one I run Ubuntu and XP Pro.  I just tried the suspend option in ubuntu to test that out for the first time and now it will not boot.  It gets to the motherboard screen and just stays there.  Anyone know of this problem?
[07:14] <ladydoor> cafuego: well, this only further proves my point
[07:15] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: why not just install one of the dictionaries from the repos?
[07:15] <ladydoor> lol
[07:15] <cwillu> compengi, I can't keep giving you exciting descriptions of what the server install isn't?  :p
[07:15] <compengi> lol :)
[07:15] <mpowell> Hi there. How can I create a new mime-type for firefox so that it launches gnome-terminal/telnet to dest IP for telnet:// links?
[07:15] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: i've no idea. sorry
[07:16] <tigerflyer> ladydoor, first i didnt know they had one.. oops... haha second... are they as big?... i need a HUGE one
[07:16] <cwillu> TheEnder, it doesn't give you a chance to hit escape to enter the grub menu or anything?
[07:16] <ladydoor> tigerflyer: i don't know. why do you need a HUGE one?
[07:16] <tigerflyer> shit... it segfaults at the first or second line... fucking a...
[07:16] <cwillu> TheEnder, and/or, continues to do it after a cold-reset?
[07:16] <ladydoor> lol
[07:16] <iter> tigerflyer: whats the file again
[07:16] <DBO> !language > tigerflyer
[07:16] <Flannel> tigerflyer: file size isn't completely descriptive of how complete the dictionary is
[07:16] <TheEnder> cwillu, at what screen?
[07:16] <iter> you can do it with sed very easily
[07:16] <iter> and I'll tell you how
[07:17] <TheEnder> the only screen i ever see is the asus motherboard one
[07:17] <iter> as long as it's not some stupid cracking file
[07:17] <cwillu> TheEnder, after the mb posts, right before you'd usually get the ubuntu splash/startup screen
[07:17] <tigerflyer> iter   its a .txt dictionary file
[07:17] <tigerflyer> Flannel, i know... but from what i found... this is the best of the best of dictionary lists
[07:17] <root_> How do i mount hda2 (Ubuntu?)
[07:17] <TheGame> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22193 any1 wanna look
[07:17] <iter> tigerflyer: sed 1d file.txt
[07:17] <cwillu> root_, what's on it?
[07:17] <TheEnder> nope, it never goes to anything else
[07:18] <RMorris84> im having trouble with my cd burner its not burning this iso and its the first time ive ever tried to burn anything in ubuntu
[07:18] <TheEnder> won't even let me enter into bios by pressing del
[07:18] <root_> cwillu, Ubuntu. Im trying to Tri-Boot but i got something wrong with my menu.lst
[07:18] <root_> cwillu, So im trying to see if i got the kernel wrong
[07:18] <mpowell> Hi there. How can I create a new mime-type for firefox so that it launches gnome-terminal/telnet to dest IP for telnet:// links?
[07:18] <tigerflyer> iter, whats thats do?
[07:18] <compengi> TheEnder, oh! you have a hardware issue then :)
[07:18] <iter> tigerflyer: deletes the first line
[07:18] <BlueEagle> -!- ubuntu is now known as gentoo  <= traitor!! :p
[07:18] <iter> tigerflyer: man sed
[07:18] <cwillu> root_, so you have another linux running and you're trying to mount it?
[07:19] <TheEnder> compengi, alright so what can i do about it
[07:19] <root_> cwillu, Yeah.
[07:19] <TheEnder> won't even let me boot from disk
[07:19] <cwillu> TheEnder, still does it after you physically unplug/replug the power?
[07:19] <compengi> TheEnder your hdd isn't being read by your mb
[07:19] <TheEnder> and using suspend in ubuntu caused that?
[07:19] <x_O> OMG
[07:19] <cwillu> root_, mount /dev/hd<whatever> /mnt -t ext3 -o defaults
[07:19] <cwillu> should work
[07:20] <iter> tigerflyer: you could also copy to new file
[07:20] <TheEnder> cause i've tried turning off psu
[07:20] <x_O> LOL .. I just realized... I can copy and paste more than one line (and command) at once into the terminal lol.
[07:20] <cwillu> root_, or you could make a new dir in /mnt or /media and mount it there
[07:20] <iter> tigerflyer: sed 1d file1.txt > file2.txt
[07:20] <gentoo> BlueEagle, :P
[07:20] <x_O> Was on webpages, copying individual lines over. argh lol.
[07:20] <tigerflyer> hmmmm ok
[07:20] <tigerflyer> ill try those
[07:20] <tigerflyer> thanks iter
[07:20] <gentoo> gentoo is much better imo
[07:20] <compengi> TheEnder well it's had being like an accident that you have done suspension and the problem had come up too
[07:20] <BlueEagle> gentoo: That's flamebait and you know it.
[07:21] <TheEnder> so there is nothing i can do?
[07:21] <cwillu> TheEnder, I'd have to guess you got flukey timing of hardware failure;
[07:21] <cwillu> TheEnder, how comfortable are you with hardware?
[07:21] <gentoo> no, BlueEagle, its my oppinion
[07:21] <gentoo> everyone got another, and i repect this
[07:21] <x_O> BlueEagle: On Easy Ubuntu ... should I use the ATI driver it recommends ? Or ... is that a bad idea, that something I should find on my own?
[07:21] <gentoo> :P
[07:21] <compengi> TheEnder i'm a computer engineer i can fix it but i need to see your pc
[07:21] <TheEnder> put together that one and the one i'm on now
[07:21] <BlueEagle> x_o: I've never used easyubuntu so I wouldn't know.
[07:21] <TheEnder> so pretty comfortable
[07:21] <cwillu> TheEnder, i.e., I'd try unplugging the drive, seeing if it'll do anything different, etc
[07:22] <cwillu> double check the connections, etc
[07:22] <x_O> Hmm. I just got it cuz I heard its better than Automatix, and I want to get codecs and ect done real quick.
[07:22] <compengi> TheEnder well yes you can try that one
[07:22] <BlueEagle> gentoo: A) You are off topic and B) Each tool for its job. As for stating your opinion as a fact, that's flamebait.
[07:22] <compengi> TheEnder try to unplug the power of your hdd
[07:22] <gentoo> BlueEagle, you started!
[07:23] <compengi> TheEnder if it does boot normaly then you have an hdd problem
[07:23] <TheEnder> ok, anything else i'd want to try after that if that doesn't work?
[07:23] <BlueEagle> is in fact*
[07:23] <cwillu> TheEnder, all sorts of things :)
[07:23] <x_O> If I can run glxgears, and see the gears spinning ... that means I have 3D accel enabled ? Does that also mean I don't need the offical ATI Drivers?
[07:23] <TheEnder> cause everytime i want to use this computer, i have to switch the monitor, keyboard, and mouse over
[07:23] <root_> Can anybody help me with My Tri-Boot?
[07:24] <cwillu> x_O:  if the cpu usage isn't spiking at the same time, then probably
[07:24] <TheEnder> so what would i want to do if unplugging doesn't help?
[07:24] <ladydoor> gentoo: please save discussions on the relative merit of different OS's for #ubuntu-offtopic. goodnight.
[07:24] <compengi> TheEnder if it boots normaly after you unpluged the power try getting a new IDE for your HDD or if it's sata a new sata cable :)
[07:24] <iter> x_O: no, it's emulating hardware in software
[07:25] <x_O> cwillu: So I have Easy Ubuntu running on here, and there's an option to install the offical ATI drivers. How do I know if I should or not? Only reason I wouldn't want to is just to ensure system stability.
[07:25] <TheEnder> k, it's sata
[07:25] <iter> x_O: what is your framerate
[07:25] <compengi> TheEnder then new sata cable
[07:25] <cwillu> x_O, it's easy enough to getit back if the driver's don't work
[07:25] <x_O> iter:  It doesn't give me a framerate, how do I turn on that option?
[07:25] <tigerflyer> are u allowed to discuss wpa cracking in here? or is that forbidden?
[07:25] <TheEnder> ok, and then i will most likely boot?
[07:25] <iter> x_O: run it from terminal application
[07:25] <cwillu> x_O, /etc/X11/xorg.conf -> device -> change driver from "fglrx" to "ati" or "radeon"
[07:25] <Wiseguy> hey guys how do i modify my PATH permanently?
[07:26] <cwillu> x_O, to turn off the ati driver
[07:26] <compengi> TheEnder you will get a screen like saying no boot or something
[07:26] <spiderworm> does anyone know if its possible to make gconf edits with the comand line?
[07:26] <compengi> TheEnder but you can then access you mb bios
[07:26] <x_O> cwillu: Changing it to ati or radeon turns it OFF?
[07:26] <TheEnder> oh, so i'll want to leave the hd unplugged?
[07:26] <compengi> TheEnder and your pc will boot normaly
[07:27] <scholarwarrior> anybody know how i configure bitlbee?
[07:27] <mpowell> wiseguy: edit ~/.bash_profile. you should see it at the bottom. colon separate different paths.
[07:27] <compengi> TheEnder yes try to unplug your hdd power
[07:27] <tehsu> I'm running Amarok on Gnome will it work? do I need anything specific, because it says finished when i try to play a song
[07:27] <TheEnder> just to test if it is a prob with the harddrive?
[07:27] <compengi> TheEnder yes :)
[07:28] <TheEnder> and what if it stays the same?
[07:28] <x_O> I am running glxgears from the terminal ... but no framerate still...
[07:28] <npodges> glxgears -printfps
[07:28] <x_O> thanks
[07:28] <mpowell> tehsul: worked fine for me just installing amarok and it's dependencies.
[07:28] <cwillu> x_O, when the ati driver is installed, one of the changes is xorg.conf will say fglrx as the driver.  Yes, changing it to 'ati' or 'radeon' will switch it back to the open source driver
[07:28] <Wiseguy> mpowell i have PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}"
[07:28] <x_O> 911 fps lol
[07:28] <compengi> TheEnder well if it doesn't work then you will be having a bigger problem, pray it's not :)
[07:29] <cwillu> x_O, glxinfo |grep direct should give some useful info too
[07:29] <npodges> 11240 fps
[07:29] <Wiseguy> where do i add the colon? before the "${PATH}"?
[07:29] <TheEnder> already on my knees then
[07:29] <compengi> TheEnder lol
[07:30] <TheEnder> ok, I'll go try that and hopefully all will turn out well since i have a few more cables.  Thanks for the help compengi and cwillu
[07:30] <cwillu> gl TheEnder
[07:30] <x_O> WTF. Easy Ubuntu says it couldn't apply changes. Broken packages! ... but it's not telling me which ones ar ebroken.
[07:30] <mpowell> Wiseguy: make a copy of that line and put it after the last 'fi', add your other paths to the beginning ala - PATH=/some/other/dir:~/bin:"${PATH}"
[07:30] <TheEnder> thanks
[07:30] <compengi> TheEnder np
[07:30] <cwillu> x_O, synaptic, and check what it says are the broken packages
[07:30] <chikebum> how do i uninstall package ...i've just install gnomebaker with apt-get
[07:30] <mpowell> Wiseguy: erp, meant PATH=/some/other/dir:"${PATH}"
[07:31] <cwillu> chikebum, apt-get remove <package name>
[07:31] <RMorris84> how do i tell if my cd is installed right?
[07:31] <chikebum> cwillu : thnx

[07:31] <kishore> then the messge here is time stamp to far
[07:31] <x_O> cwillu: I am in synaptic ... I don't see anything about broken packages though. Where do I look?
[07:31] <cwillu> x_O, one sec
[07:32] <InvisiblePinkUni> how can i setup a "wildcard" for a server name to create a SSL certificate?
[07:32] <Wiseguy> what do i have to do to make the new settings take effect?
[07:32] <cwillu> x_O, Custum | broken packages
[07:32] <x_O> cwillu: Hey I looked in a menu it says FIX BROKEN PACKAGES, so obvisously I did that and it said it fixed them
[07:32] <mpowell> RMorris84: dmesg | egrep -i 'CD|DVD' should show it being found
[07:32] <cwillu> x_O, well, try easyubuntu again then :)
[07:33] <rixth> I need to speak to someone in New Zealand.
[07:33] <x_O> I am lol
[07:33] <InvisiblePinkUni> rixth: 'ello...

[07:34] <cwillu> yep, that's the one
[07:34] <x_O> Ok, that didn't work.
[07:34] <rixth> InvisiblePinkUni, woohoo. I am trying to diagnose a server problem, could you please see if you can access www.hiphopcrack.com? I am in NZ, and am unable to access it but other members in my team (not in NZ) can. All other sites are OK.
[07:34] <x_O> err, wait i have to change my DIR.
[07:35] <InvisiblePinkUni> rixth: its askin' 4 a password
[07:35] <moustafa> i need help
[07:35] <moustafa> please
[07:35] <hs_125> rixth, it is fine
[07:35] <rixth> InvisiblePinkUni, ok cool, thank you for checking that. I did a traceroute and it is dieing at the datacenter in Dallas. I'm with iHug, I might take this up with them.
[07:35] <moustafa> i want to enter any chat room by java
[07:36] <moustafa> but in my system i installed java 5
[07:36] <mpowell> InvisiblePinkUni: When prompted for your Common Name during the certificate generation, use *.yourdomain.com
[07:36] <mattwj2005> hi guys
[07:36] <InvisiblePinkUni> rixth: good luck
[07:36] <moustafa> and it's now opening any chat
[07:36] <moustafa> shall any one help me?
[07:36] <x_O> Is there a way to ... say, use LOCATE for a file ... so it shows you the DIR it's in.. and cd to the DIR that it printed out? Without having to enter it in manually? There a shortcut?
[07:36] <moustafa> i use ubuntu and i want to enter chat rooms
[07:37] <mattwj2005> does anyone know how to open a .tr3 file using opensource software?
[07:37] <x_O> Hmm. Actually, TAB didn't work too bad for that, nevermind.
[07:37] <rixth> !anyone > mattwj2005
[07:37] <InvisiblePinkUni> mpowell: i did that..... (its asking for a 'server name', not 'common name' on my machine). then when i try to access the site, it says unable to verify identity of *.yourdomain.com
[07:38] <InvisiblePinkUni> mpowell: it didnt treat * as a wild card, but treated it as a character.... :o
[07:38] <x_O> ARGH! It's still saying I have broken packages.
[07:38] <mpowell> x_o. locate can return multiple results so no, not really
[07:38] <mattwj2005> someone :P
[07:38] <swuboo> I have a question about which kernel I should be using as available on synaptic.
[07:38] <cwillu> InvisiblePinkUni, not dead sure, but I believe server name is the same thing as common name
[07:39] <cwillu> swuboo, what type of cpu?
[07:39] <InvisiblePinkUni> mattwj2005: whats a .tr3
[07:39] <mattwj2005> I am trying to open a .tr3 file for the Wikipedia release
[07:39] <mattwj2005> tomeraider3
[07:39] <swuboo> It's an AMD64 X2.
[07:39] <cwillu> whats the question?
[07:39] <swuboo> Should I use the x64 generic, the x64 K8, or the X64 K8 SMP?
[07:39] <mattwj2005> you can get a program to read it and there is a demo but the full version cost $38!
[07:40] <cwillu> K8 I believe
[07:40] <clintonc> hello, all
[07:40] <npodges> mattwj2005: what is a .tr3?
[07:40] <swuboo> The generic kernel, which I'm using now, seems to be employing both cores just fine, really.
[07:40] <madman93> hello, all too
[07:40] <mattwj2005> I tired Openoffice.org all ready
[07:40] <npodges> swuboo, get 686 kernel
[07:40] <BlueEagle> x_o: also when in a terminal markin the text will copy it and clicking your middle mouse button will paste it.
[07:40] <swuboo> Regular 32 bit 686?
[07:41] <rixth> mattwj2005, it's likely a binary file
[07:41] <swuboo> I haven't really had any problems with the generic, except that I have to boot noapic.
[07:41] <cwillu> swuboo, there's not really a huge performance difference by using a slightly wrong kernel (assuming it works).  Using the 686 kernel will make your life easier if you need to use proprietary stuff
[07:41] <x_O> BlueEagle: ah, that's helpful.
[07:41] <npodges> swuboo: what cpu is it?
[07:41] <swuboo> Fair enough, cwillu, but I actually don't need to.
[07:42] <swuboo> AMD 64 X2 4200+.
[07:42] <mattwj2005> what do you mean rixth?
[07:42] <swuboo> I'm thinking the SMP is not the correct kernel, since I think it actually means multiple processors rather than multiple cores.
[07:42] <npodges> oh, i'm not sure, swuboo.. i use 686 for my core duo
[07:42] <RMorris84> im having some trouble burning a cd can someone help me
[07:42] <Omeganon> swuboo SMP is for multi-processor or multi-core
[07:42] <swuboo> I'll probably stick with the generic or go with the K8.
[07:42] <BlueEagle> swuboo: SMP = Symmetric Multi Processing iirc
[07:42] <x_O> cwillu: I am running Easy Ubuntu again. But the third time I unselected Flash and ATI Driver ... now it's working. Hmm.
[07:43] <x_O> Have to install them manuall I suppose.
[07:43] <swuboo> Is it now, Omeganon?
[07:43] <cwillu> x_O, does ati work on its own?
[07:43] <Omeganon> swuboo, yes
[07:43] <x_O> cwillu: I'm not sure. I was just under the impression that I needed official ATI drivers.
[07:43] <cwillu> x_O, also, what cpu are you running btw?
[07:43] <swuboo> Ah.
[07:43] <x_O> 1.6ghz p4-m
[07:43] <swuboo> Well, I guess then I'll try the SMP.
[07:43] <x_O> ancient tech lol
[07:44] <swuboo> It's a relatively fresh install, if it gets nuked I don't lose anything but a night's tinkering.
[07:44] <mattwj2005> does that mean there is no way to open?
[07:44] <swuboo> Yanking the new kernel off Synaptic now.
[07:44] <mattwj2005> besides the software
[07:45] <swuboo> I've honestly been astonished at the stability of the Ubuntu 64 bit version.
[07:45] <brendonjt> i ya there  all
[07:45] <JoseStefan> swuboo, new kernels just give you a new boot option, old kernels are kept until you remove them manually
[07:45] <swuboo> JoseStefan: Good point.
[07:46] <killapop>  from yesterday
[07:46] <killapop> sitting in domnics office now
[07:46] <Omeganon> swuboo, reading back, I believe that the 686 kernels are compiled with SMP support
[07:46] <Omeganon> Linux seng-mpowell-lnx 2.6.15-26-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Aug 3 03:13:28 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[07:46] <swuboo> Omeganon: The 32 bit kernels, you mean?
[07:46] <brendonjt> !smp
[07:46] <npodges> why does my network-manager applet not find any devices even though i have a working ethernet device and a working wireless card (which is the one i'm connected on now)?
[07:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:47] <Omeganon> yeah
[07:47] <x_O> cwillu: Installed everything I wanted, except for Flash and the ATI driver ... so now I tried installing flash by itself from easy ubuntu and it worked lol leaves the ati driver
[07:47] <swuboo> Omeganon: Well, I've got no reason to resort to that.  So far the ONLY problem I've had with the 64 bit kernels is that Ur-Quan Masters segfaults.
[07:47] <tehsu> ati driver is simple on ubuntu
[07:47] <swuboo> Which is not exactly what I'd call a dealbreaker.
[07:47] <Omeganon> *nod*
[07:48] <x_O> Hmm. It's working now...
[07:48] <paradizelost> hey all, i'm getting a funky error on an amd64 install w/ an ati card
[07:48] <swuboo> And to balance that out, when I accidentally opened thirty copies of Firefox each connecting to a different server (RSS accident) my CPU usage peaked at 40%.
[07:48] <paradizelost> "error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual"
[07:48] <mattwj2005> I am going to try koffice and see if that works
[07:48] <tehsu> whats the best way to keep a laptop cool on ubuntu?
[07:48] <brendonjt> tehsu:  u reckon,  i tried installing it on by whats on the wiki  and i got errors  when i tried the terminal command to see wether it worked and it didn't
[07:48] <mattwj2005> I'll let you guys know if it does :)
[07:49] <InvisiblePinkUni> how do i make apache2-ssl-certificate have common names with wildcards? its treating *.yourdomain.com literally
[07:49] <RMorris84> My cdrom isnt burning cds. Im trying to burn an .iso and when i try to start it it says Error Writing Cd and thats it... can someone help me figure out why
[07:49] <npodges> x_o, do you need a how to for ATI drivers?
[07:49] <npodges> RMorris84: what program are you using to burn?
[07:49] <tehsu> brendonjt: i installed it from apt-get and then ran an update, and it worked fine.. first i installed it using the stuff from ati website, then used the stuff from the wiki
[07:49] <npodges> and have you tried any others
[07:50] <RMorris84> i tried gnomebaker and it didnt work then someone said just right click the iso and click write to cd and that seemed like it was going to work but still got an error
[07:50] <x_O> npodges: No, they installed fine. I figured out why EASY UBUNTU wasn't working. It's the option for playing embedded movies in the web browser with TOTEM. For some reason it was telling me I had broken packages, which I assume would be true... so I just didn't install it.
[07:50] <brendonjt> tehsu:  ok  what did you do with  apt-get to get it installed?
[07:50] <tehsu> brendonjt: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) && sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx && depmod -a && aticonfig --initial && aticonfig -overlay-type=Xv << works perfectly for me not a single problem
[07:50] <Omeganon> paradizelost: lots of hits on google for that error for 64bit ubuntu
[07:51] <VR_> hey all, i have a question. i have some ogg files riped from cd. whenever i click on an ogg in nautilus, the file "moves" to the bottom so to speak. after i click on it once like that, only then can i double-click it and open it in bmp. what's the deal with that?
[07:51] <paradizelost> Omeganon: yah, but a lot of them suggest recompiling the kernel
[07:51] <swuboo> Another quick question.  Which file contains the GRUB settings, again?
[07:51] <brendonjt> tehsu:  ok i have the linux restricted drivers installed  might just try the second part
[07:51] <zeronenorez> hello guys , i download calmav-0.88.4.tar.gz. then i use ./configure. but it tell me to install zlib and zlib-devel packages, then i download zlib_1.2.3.tar.gz and install that. then when i try to install again,this time i succeed but i can't use sudo freshclam it told me: ERROR: Please edit the example config file /usr/local/etc/freshclam.conf.
[07:52] <zeronenorez> and ERROR: Please edit the example config file /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf.
[07:52] <tehsu> brendonjt: i havent had a single problem yet
[07:52] <RMorris84> !iso
[07:52] <ubotu> To mount an .iso image: sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint - bin/cue can be converted to iso with bchunk  .iso images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com Always verify the .iso before burning, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[07:52] <npodges> x_O, sudo apt-get -f install
[07:52] <zeronenorez> and ERROR: Can't parse the config file /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf
[07:52] <npodges> then try again, should fix totem probelsm
[07:52] <cafuego> zeronenorez: Um, just 'apt-get install' it.
[07:52] <cafuego> zeronenorez: Whya r you mucking about with tarballs?
[07:52] <tehsu> anyone know the best way to keep a laptop cool under linux
[07:52] <cafuego> tehsu: Submerge it in mineral oil.
[07:52] <swuboo> tehsu: I don't see that it would be much different than under windows.
[07:53] <foo> hm, I did mv file ...
[07:53] <foo> What does ... do? Hmm
[07:53] <cafuego> Disclaimer: May affect usage.
[07:53] <zeronenorez> sorry
[07:53] <kevinG> How can I check what video drivers are installed?
[07:53] <mattwj2005> kword didn't work either
[07:53] <cafuego> foo: it renames the file to "..."
[07:53] <foo> ahh, as a hidden file
[07:53] <foo> thanks
[07:53] <swuboo> cafuego: Sure, if you want all the caps on your mobo to electrolyze.
[07:53] <tehsu> swuboo: in windows i get 50 C in ubuntu i get 60C why? probably cuz the cpu is working more under linux, just wondering if there is a good way to keep it lower
[07:54] <foo> cafuego: hm, it was a dir. I don't see it like it renamed it
[07:54] <brendonjt> tehsu:  i did all that above and i got this error
[07:54] <brendonjt> tehsu:  Found fglrx primary device section Nothing to do, terminating.
[07:54] <tehsu> so u already have fglrx installed
[07:54] <swuboo> tehsu: That's odd.  Have you tried rebooting quickly in each and checking the BIOS temperature?  It may be an issue with the drivers available in linux for interpreting your sensor data.
[07:55] <brendonjt> tehsu:  but when i check it using the command on the wiki  i get pages of errors
[07:55] <zeronenorez> cafuego, apt-get only can get clamav 0.88.2
[07:55] <cafuego> zeronenorez: and...?
[07:55] <zeronenorez> and i want 0.88.4
[07:55] <zeronenorez> cafuego, i install it
[07:55] <tehsu> swuboo: i havent checked it in the bios yet.. ill check it in  a few
[07:55] <cafuego> Because...?
[07:55] <zeronenorez> installed
[07:55] <RMorris84> how can i write a file to my windows partition so i can burn this iso file in windoze.. :(
[07:55] <tehsu> brendonjt: did u put fglrx in the xorg.conf?
[07:56] <Omeganon> RMorris84: XP?
[07:56] <zeronenorez> i can't use freshclam in 0.88.2
[07:56] <swuboo> tehsu: That would be my best guess, honestly.  That or something that, obviously, I haven't guessed.  Tautological, I know.
[07:56] <RMorris84> yeah
[07:56] <brendonjt> tehsu:  huh
[07:56] <x_O> Get:12 ftp://cipherfunk.org dapper/main Packages ## Err ftp://cipherfunk.org dapper/main Packages ## Unable to fetch file, server said 'No such file.
[07:56] <Omeganon> RMorris84: Install NTFS-3g per the HOWTo's, mount your windows partition
[07:56] <RMorris84> unfortuneately, but if the drive would burn ti wouldnt have to
[07:56] <x_O> Hmm. It fail.... argh. Nevermind now. Fixed itself.
[07:56] <RMorris84> what how to
[07:56] <zeronenorez> cafuego,i can't use freshclam in 0.88.2
[07:56] <Omeganon> Works like a charm.
[07:56] <ubuntu_> hey every1
[07:57] <tehsu> brendonjt: did u do aticonfig --initial
[07:57] <npodges> tehsu: you could try this http://martin.ankerl.org/2006/08/16/how-to-make-firefox-40-percent-faster/
[07:57] <zeronenorez> cafuego,but now ,either
[07:57] <npodges> tehsu: should help performance and power management, if you'd like
[07:57] <Omeganon> search for NTFS-3g on the Ubuntu Forums. It'll be the first match
[07:57] <brendonjt> tehsu:  yip  i get the error i sent above
[07:58] <cafuego> zeronenorez: Works fine here.
[07:58] <cafuego> zeronenorez: it prints two warninsg that you cna ignore, but it works fine.
[07:58] <x_O> What was the frame rate command for glxgears?
[07:58] <paradizelost> glxgears -printfps
[07:58] <tehsu> brendonjt: i dunno then, cuz i used that and i have never had a problem yet
[07:58] <mr_lampe> hi there...i need my ubuntu live-cd to cognize my ipod
[07:59] <mr_lampe> can u help me?
[07:59] <zeronenorez> cafuego, really? the warning is normal?
[07:59] <paradizelost> or glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark
[07:59] <cafuego> zeronenorez: Yes.
[07:59] <x_O> Now I am getting lower FPS after installing the ATI driver. Crap. Like, WAAAAAAY worse, even the gears are spinning slow.
[07:59] <tehsu> 1722 frames in 5.7 seconds = 302.290 FPS
[07:59] <tehsu> hows that ^^?
[07:59] <x_O> Benchmark lol. maybe not, but it tells me my driver is messed up.
[07:59] <zeronenorez> cafuego, but now i'm in 0.88.4 can u give me any suggestion?
[07:59] <Omeganon> x_0 - you can always use command --help or man command to find out more information about commands and their paramters
[07:59] <brendonjt> tehsu:  mine is a radeon 9600  i think iirc
[07:59] <cafuego> zeronenorez: Remove 0.88.4 completely. Just run the packaged one and let it run the freshclam server normally.
[07:59] <RMorris84> is there anything i can try to make this drive burn an .iso...
[07:59] <x_O> I was getting like over 1,000 FPS a min ago before the EasyUbuntu ATI driver install...
[08:00] <swuboo> 14303 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2860.594 FPS.  I'm kinda surprised, considering I'm using an antique PCI graphics card.
[08:00] <RMorris84> some lil trick i could be missing?
[08:00] <tehsu> brendonjt: i see, im on a x700 mobility thats lowvolted
[08:00] <zeronenorez> cafuego, i done , it give me 3 errors:ERROR: Please edit the example config file /usr/local/etc/freshclam.conf.
[08:00] <foo> cafuego: Any ideas?
[08:00] <zeronenorez> and ERROR: Please edit the example config file /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf.
[08:01] <cafuego> zeronenorez: That is not the Ubuntu 0.88.2 version.
[08:01] <zeronenorez> and ERROR: Please edit the example config file /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf.
[08:01] <zeronenorez> oh
[08:01] <brendonjt> tehsu:  mine is a agp  card
[08:01] <Omeganon> zeronenorez: it's telling you exactly what you need to do to fix the errors
[08:01] <tehsu> pci-e in a lapto :o
[08:01] <zeronenorez> cafuego,u mean not for ubuntu?
[08:01] <x_O> how do i fix a broken video driver?
[08:02] <x_O> or.. damamged one lol. since I am getting WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY lower fps.
[08:02] <cafuego> zeronenorez: I mean not the version that is packaged in Ubuntu; it's trying to run the one you installed by hand from the tarball.
[08:02] <npodges> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:02] <RMorris84> Omeganon: do u know how i can test this cd rom?
[08:03] <zeronenorez> cafuego,i need to unstall it?
[08:03] <cafuego> zeronenorez: Yes
[08:03] <zeronenorez> Omeganon, how to edit?
[08:03] <cafuego> get rid of all the files it installed.
[08:03] <cafuego> And then install 0.88.2 via apt-get or synaptic.
[08:04] <Omeganon> zeronenorez: sudo gedit /usr/local/etc/freshclam.conf
[08:04] <swuboo> Can anyone remind me where the grub bootlist is stored so that I can edit it?
[08:04] <JoseStefan> tehsu: took my a while to find it, but you might want to read this: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/36014
[08:04] <zeronenorez> Omeganon, i mean change to what?
[08:04] <x_O> I am still getting crap frame rates.
[08:04] <Omeganon> RMorris: Not beyond verifying that it was detected as a CDRW/DVDR during bootup
[08:04] <x_O> argh.
[08:04] <x_O> Think It's really broken this time lol..
[08:04] <cafuego> Omeganon: No, he needs to remove the tarball install and grab the prepackaged version. it just works.
[08:04] <NuToLinux> I have a very noobish problem. On my first install of linux, chose ubuntu, and want to run Folding@Haome on this rig. on their site though, it lists the Linux file, as an .exe file.........how do I run this in Ubuntu??
[08:04] <Omeganon> zeronenorez: I don't use clam but I'm sure the file is self explanatory once you open it
[08:05] <x_O> Crap. Fresh install and ATI killed it.
[08:05] <Omeganon> zeronenorez: or uninstall the tarball and install the apt-packaged version. ;)
[08:05] <x_O> I don't know how to reverse what I did.
[08:05] <zeronenorez> i gonna unstall it
[08:06] <zeronenorez> Omeganon, sorry a small question:i ever learn how to uninstall packages ;P
[08:06] <zeronenorez> Omeganon, i never not ever
[08:07] <^Down> Is there a way to play .wmv files on linux?
[08:07] <cafuego> zeronenorez: That's the thing with tarball stuff, you can't easily uninstall it. that's why you don't install it unless you have no choice.
[08:07] <JoseStefan> !tell ^Down about wmv
[08:08] <Omeganon> NuToLinux: it's a linux executable file. See below. Just run 'chmod 755 /path/to/FAH504-Linux.exe' then '/path/to/FAH504-Linux.exe'
[08:08] <Omeganon> file FAH504-Linux.exe

[08:08] <eyequeue> cafuego, what's that thing for making that safer?  stow?
 yes
[08:08] <eyequeue> !info stow
[08:08] <ubotu> stow: Organiser for /usr/local/ hierarchy. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3.3-2.1 (dapper), package size 57 kB, installed size 320 kB
[08:09] <x_O> I installed the ATI driver ... and now my FPS in GLXGears is like.... 122fps .. down from 1,000 + fps ...... what should I do?
[08:09] <Omeganon> zeronenorez: try running 'make uninstall' in the source directory you ran make in
[08:09] <eyequeue> cafuego, do you know if stow is any good offhand?
[08:09] <zeronenorez> i gonna to try
[08:10] <Omeganon> x_0: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change fglrx in the 'Driver' section to 'ati' or 'radeon'
[08:10] <Wizardling> Hi. /stats p gives O staff available. Is any help available in this case?
[08:10] <x_O> Omeganon:  Thanks. BTW, what do I need the official ATI drivers for? Do they benifit me in any actual way, such as playing MEDIA? Or ...
[08:10] <Omeganon> x_0 and remember to make backups of that file in the future if you're going to be changing video drivers ;)
[08:10] <Madpilot> Wizardling, help for what?
[08:11] <JoseStefan> how do i make glxgears tell me fps?
[08:11] <zeronenorez> yeah,completely solved, that's easy, thanks Omeganon & Omeganon
[08:11] <zeronenorez> oh
[08:11] <x_O> Omeganon: I have already modified it twice (not directly with a text editor though) ... how do I get the ORIGINAL ?
[08:11] <x_O> or does it have to be ... created ... by detecting stuff? ect..
[08:12] <zeronenorez> that's Omeganon & cafuego( copy error ;P)
[08:12] <zeronenorez> thans guys
[08:12] <Omeganon> x_0: the ati/radeon drivers are just fine unless you want to use XGL/compiz, etc
[08:12] <kevinG> how do i change a permission on a file to allow me to write to it?
[08:12] <NuToLinux> Omeganon: thanks, worked great :)
[08:13] <zeronenorez> cafuego, thx
[08:13] <zeronenorez> Omeganon, thx
[08:13] <Omeganon> x_0, to get the original back, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver' and choose either the ati or radeon drivers when prompted to choose a driver.
[08:14] <Omeganon> keving: chmod u+w /path/to/file
[08:14] <Wizardling> I'm a liitle irritated that I've been banned from a channel supposedly for calling the jerk op a nazi. In fact - and as the transcript shows - all I was doing was mentioning the Usenet 'nazi rule' which says that the mention of nazis or the like is the sign a thread is hoplessly gone bananas. I said this because someone ELSE had just called someone Gestapo.
[08:14] <Omeganon> presuming you own the file
[08:14] <x_O> Omeganon: I did the reconfigure thing, and went through it real quick, although it didn't change my FPS.. and when I opened my xorg.conf I noticed it already said "ATI"
[08:14] <kevinG> ahh yeah, thanks
[08:14] <x_O> I changed it to "RADEON" and no change.
[08:14] <Wizardling> Basically the op was just looking for anything he could twist to get me banned.
[08:14] <kevinG> one day i'll remember all these commands
[08:14] <tehsu> woo! 24354 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4870.683 FPS
[08:14] <tehsu> so much better
[08:14] <Juvv> hey guys
[08:15] <Juvv> this probably happens every 30 secs, but im wondering if i can get some help?
[08:15] <JoseStefan> my glxgears doesnt show FPS
[08:15] <Omeganon> x_0 you need to at least exit X, possibly kill gdm (ctrl-alt-backspace), and maybe reboot if the kernel hasn't loaded the drivers.
[08:15] <x_O> JoseStefan: From the terminal, type in glxgears -printfps
[08:16] <Juvv> trying to indtall drivers for my wireless network card for my lappy :\
[08:16] <Juvv> having a hell of a time
[08:16] <Wizardling> So to whom does someone complain about an op run amok in an offical channel?
[08:16] <Omeganon> keving: like anything else, it just takes time. familiarity comes with use.
[08:16] <x_O> How will I know if the drivers have been loaded?
[08:16] <kevinG> actually...i need to change the permissin of the file.
[08:16] <x_O> Because I should get higher FPS again?
[08:16] <kevinG> i'm taking a class on linux right now, but have only done two classes so far
[08:16] <JoseStefan> x_O: around 1300k
[08:16] <Juvv> anyone? :(
[08:17] <eyequeue> Wizardling, i know you're frustrated now, and i also know you won't like what i have to say
[08:17] <Wizardling> lay it on me :-)
[08:17] <Omeganon> x_0, you could use 'lsmod' and look for ati or radeon and make sure it's used by at least 1
[08:17] <tehsu> x_O: u can type fglrxinfo
[08:18] <eyequeue> Wizardling, it's offtopic here, but also, it looke like the only thing you can do now is save logs, to show someone tomorrow, when /stats p is non-zeru
[08:18] <eyequeue> Wizardling, meanwhile is there any ubuntu question you have? :)
[08:18] <Wizardling> Meh. No hurry though, I guess. Thanks :-)
[08:18] <Juvv> mmm
[08:18] <x_O> tehsu: I did that... I don't know what the output means though.
[08:18] <Juvv> im guessin i cant grab a bit of help?
[08:19] <svein> hello
[08:19] <x_O> Mesa GLX Indirect ... only thing of significance I see there.
[08:19] <eyequeue> Juvv, ?
[08:19] <Wizardling> Other than my request more Mac testing be performed - nope :-) I've already filed bug reports.
[08:19] <Juvv> hey eyequeue, triyn to get a bit of help installing some drivers for my pcmcia wireles card
[08:19] <eyequeue> Wizardling, okay, just hoping some support issue might be a good distractor, heh
[08:19] <svein> I have vmware server on ubuntu, and cant get dhcp server (dhcp3) up and running anny more. any clue anyone? (if any plz ansver priv)
[08:20] <Wizardling> Actually - I DO have a query - how low can one go with Xbuntu when it comes to system requirements?
[08:20] <eyequeue> Juvv, unfortunately i'm not of any use on that topic, sorry
[08:20] <kevinG> How do I get a program to list in the applications ?
[08:20] <Juvv> well, i know what to do as such, i just odn tknow how to use terminal very well lol
[08:20] <Healot> as ubuntu developer says? the minimum, Wizardling?
[08:20] <Juvv> maybe u could tell me how to execute files in it etc?
[08:20] <ajay> Wizardling, 256 mb is minimum - anything low is a big disappointment
[08:21] <Wizardling> I'm thinking more CPU speed?
[08:21] <paradizelost>  anyone got a good wiki/howto for xgl on amd64?
[08:21] <eyequeue> Wizardling, i've heard the alternatecd helps with lowmem installs too, if that helps
[08:21] <ajay> i think it should run on a 486 - but i have never tried it anyways :) - the least i have tried it on is a p3 - 600 mhz
[08:21] <ajay> and it works pretty well
[08:21] <RMorris84> im having troubles with my cd-writer can someone shoot some guidence my way?
[08:21] <Omeganon> kevinG: Applications: Accessories: AlaCarte Menu Editor
[08:22] <Juvv> anyone got any quick links to commands for terminal?
[08:22] <ajay> RMorris84, and what exacly is the issue?
[08:22] <Juvv> im ultra nnoob
[08:22] <ajay> Juvv, what do you intend to do?
[08:22] <kevinG> ah..so that's what that is...guess I just need to play around some more
[08:22] <Healot> commands for your shell > type "help"
[08:22] <Omeganon> Juuv: <tab><tab> while in terminal is a good start ;)
[08:22] <Juvv> ajay install some drivers for my network card
[08:23] <jazzrocker> anyone know how to get the GNOME/KDE themes to be the same for my normal user as for when i use gksudo?
[08:23] <Wizardling> there doesn't seem to be a good list, or any list I can see, of Macs or PCs tested with Ubuntu or Xbuntu and known to work. I guess the list would be hopelessly large on the PC side - but there's a much smaller number of PPC Mac models.
[08:23] <ajay> Juvv, use tab completion
[08:23] <RMorris84> ajay: i just installed ubuntu about 2 weeks ago, and i havent tried to burn one, but it reads cds. but its not burning... just does nothing
[08:23] <Juvv> wots that
[08:23] <jazzrocker> i tried logging in as root into GNOME/KDE and changing themes manually but it hasn't taken effect
[08:23] <ajay> do you get any error messages??
[08:24] <ajay> Juvv, open a terminal - just hit the tab key twice
[08:24] <Juvv> k
[08:24] <ajay> it would give you a whole lot of commands that can be run
[08:24] <Wizardling> I have to say I'm really enjoying 6.06 on the higher end Macs I've run it on sucessfully.
[08:24] <ozzloy> i installed apache, then uninstalled it, but when i shut down, it still says "stopping apache ... [ok] "
[08:24] <x_O> Now my entire display is messed up. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver Wouldn't run outside my GUI ... and now it wont work inside it.
[08:24] <x_O> argh
[08:24] <RMorris84> ajay: when i run gnomebaker...
[08:24] <Juvv>  rofl
[08:24] <RMorris84> want me to paste it in here?
[08:24] <Juvv> this doesnt help too much
[08:24] <Juvv> can someone tell me just how to run something
[08:24] <eyequeue> !paste > RMorris84
[08:24] <Omeganon> RMorris84: Use System: Administration: System Log and open /var/log/messages. Look for errors related to your CDRom dirve.
[08:24] <Juvv> is it run "name"
[08:24] <x_O> Ok, working inside GUI now. crap... this isnt good
[08:25] <ajay> Jukru, if its an executable - just type ./<file-name> on the command line
[08:25] <Wizardling> It's so easy to install and use I'm tempted to take Ubuntu disks around when I go on WinPC service calls.
[08:25] <eyequeue> Juvv, typically "chmod +x name && ./name"
[08:25] <ajay> RMorris84, if its a really big message send a priv msg
[08:25] <Wizardling> Can installing Ubuntu over Windows be justified as a 'fix'?
[08:25] <Blinker_> whats the terminal command to manage directory permissions?
[08:26] <ajay> else you can paste it here - there would be a lot of help if you put it here - ofcourse without cluttering the channel
[08:26] <eyequeue> Blinker, chmod
[08:26] <Blinker_> eyequeue- thx
[08:26] <Omeganon> Blinker_: chmod
[08:26] <eyequeue> Blinker, np
[08:26] <Juvv> eyequeue lol that makes no sense to me
[08:26] <Juvv> im total noob.
[08:27] <Juvv> sorry this must piss u guys off.. lol
[08:27] <ajay> Juvv, say your file is named driver - then type ./driver on the comand line
[08:27] <Omeganon> Juuv: is it a file you downloaded or one that was already on the system?
[08:27] <eyequeue> Juvv, substitute for "name" there
[08:27] <Wizardling> type man chmod
[08:27] <Wizardling> as man files go it's not too bad
[08:28] <mtholdenss> creating a 5gb fat 32 drive will enable me to share files between ubuntu and xp?
[08:28] <eyequeue> Juvv, typically "chmod +x name && ./name" .... chmod makes it executable, the other executes it
[08:28] <Omeganon> Juuv: for programs already on the system, you just need to type '/path/to/program' <enter>. if it is in the same directory you are in then './program' <enter> is sufficient
[08:28] <Juvv> Omeganon on the desktop
[08:29] <Omeganon> Juuv: right click on the file, Permissions and make it executable. after that, double click on it.
[08:29] <kevinG> How do I modify a .config file from within the terminal?
[08:29] <Omeganon> Juuv: erp. right click, properties, then permissions
[08:29] <eyequeue> kevinG, nano .config
[08:30] <Juvv> mmm
[08:30] <Juvv> did that, run in terminal
[08:30] <Juvv> jsut flashed iup a screen
[08:30] <Juvv> then goes
[08:31] <Omeganon> Juvv: open a terminal; cd Desktop then type ./programname
[08:32] <kevinG> How do I change permissions for users?
[08:33] <RMorris84> ajay: Error: Cannot gain SYS_RAWIO capability.Is cdrecord installed SUID root?
[08:33] <RMorris84> : Operation not permitted
[08:33] <RMorris84> cdrecord is installed
[08:34] <x_O> Not getting any high FPS. Hmm. I rebooted.
[08:34] <Omeganon> Rmorris84: chown root /usr/bin/cdrecord; chmod u+s /usr/bin/cdrecord
[08:34] <x_O> Argh.
[08:34] <Hmmmm> hi guys, im looking for a java webmail client. anyone know of a good one?
[08:34] <Omeganon> Rmorris: erp. put sudo in front of both of those commands
[08:34] <Omeganon> sudo chwon ... ; sudo chmod ...
[08:35] <RMorris84> roger
[08:35] <Juvv> gH
[08:35] <RMorris84> try to burn now?
[08:35] <Juvv> ubuntu wasnt designed for noobs like me
[08:35] <Omeganon> kevinG: explain further. what permissions?
[08:35] <Omeganon> RMorris84: yeah
[08:36] <richard> Ubuntu 64 install installer crashed :(
[08:36] <swuboo> richard: Had a similar problem myself.
[08:36] <swuboo> Know what step?
[08:37] <ajay> RMorris84, use sudo
[08:37] <kevinG> Well...I want to change the permission of the xorg.config file because apparently i need to change a line that says "nv" to "nvidia" and then i'll be able to run xgl, i guess
[08:37] <ajay> sorry was away
[08:37] <Omeganon> kevinG: just use sudo : sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:37] <richard> File usr/bin/ubiquity line 132 and line 57, 264, also install.py line 1285 and 630
[08:37] <Juvv> ok
[08:37] <x_O> kevinG: You can use the terminal to edit it. Try, ......... CRAP he beat me to it lol
[08:37] <Juvv> well
[08:38] <Juvv> i think im ognna format ubuntu off my laptop
[08:38] <Juvv> i tried. and failed miserably.. lol
[08:38] <swuboo> richard:  Damn.  I was hoping you were going to say something else.
[08:38] <Omeganon> keving: but before you do, you _did_ install the binary NVidia driver, right?
[08:38] <richard> same shit eh
[08:38] <x_O> Juvv:  What are you wanting to do? I missed what you said...
[08:38] <kevinG> er...
[08:38] <Healot> sure, Juvv, stick to windows, and run uubntu with vmware
[08:38] <swuboo> richard:  No, I have no idea what your problem is.
[08:38] <richard> ?
[08:38] <swuboo> richard:  I was hoping you were going to say the one I know how to fix!
[08:38] <Juvv> wots vmware
[08:38] <Juvv> x_O trying to isntall some drivers for my network card
[08:39] <richard> im on a laptop Fujitsu siemens 64 mobile athlon
[08:39] <x_O> Juvv OH, lol driver issues. I'll step back lol.
[08:39] <Juvv> i dont know howo to use terminal unfortunately.
[08:39] <ajay> Juvv, its a virtulalisation tool (to  put it simpe)
[08:39] <kevinG> i just typed "sudo nvidia-glx-config" enable in the terminal
[08:39] <Juvv> ahh ok
[08:39] <swuboo> richard: Have you tried running the installer with the noapic flag?
[08:39] <Juvv> im halfway to installing them
[08:39] <x_O> Juvv. It's easy. If you're wanting to change a line in your xorg.conf ... or whatever file you wanted to to.
[08:39] <tehsu> do i need to install traceroute or somethin?
[08:39] <richard> no not yet
[08:39] <Juvv> i jsut dont know how to execute these damn files
[08:39] <richard> and i dont have time now
[08:39] <x_O> You just use sudo gedit (and whatever your file name and path is)
[08:39] <ajay> Juvv, why dont you try double clicking them??
[08:39] <swuboo> richard: I had an installer crashing problem on an AMD64 last night.
[08:40] <Juvv> i have
[08:40] <Juvv> doesnt do much
[08:40] <richard> did you report it?
[08:40] <Juvv> well
[08:40] <kevinG> ok...i guess that didn't install the drivers like i thought it did, then
[08:40] <richard> someone must have
[08:40] <Juvv> no because im sure its me..
[08:40] <Wizardling> If there's an improvement to a man file that seems obvious to a user - how does one suggest an improvement?
[08:40] <richard> you and I cant be the only ones
[08:40] <swuboo> Yes, someone did.
[08:40] <eyequeue> Wizardling, i'd say a bug report
[08:40] <richard> do you have AIM?
[08:40] <richard> msn
[08:40] <eyequeue> !bugs
[08:40] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu, please report it at http://bugs.ubuntu.com
[08:40] <RMorris84> ajay, use sudo where?
[08:41] <RMorris84> when i run gnomebaker?
[08:41] <swuboo> I described my symptons on here, and someone pointed me at the guy's bug report, which included the workaround.
[08:41] <swuboo> Now granted, your problem may be different.
[08:41] <Omeganon> Wizardling: almost all man pages include contact information for their authors at the bottom.
[08:41] <swuboo> The guy in the bug report and I both have 64 X2 chips and nVidia 570 SLI chipsets.
[08:41] <ajay> for the cdrecord operations
[08:41] <Wizardling> oh, ok... bug reports can be used for suggestions too? Thanks.
[08:41] <swuboo> And we both crashed at a different stage of the install than you are.
[08:41] <ajay> i think to gnomebaker should work too
[08:41] <swuboo> But I figure noapic is worth a go for you, right?
[08:42] <swuboo> The worst it can do is still crash, eh what?
[08:42] <Wizardling> some of the man authors contacts are a bit old.
[08:42] <richard> not sure its worth installing in that case
[08:42] <eyequeue> Wizardling, yeah, it's a fix really, just prioritize it reasonably :)
[08:42] <Wizardling> but I guess I could try.
[08:42] <richard> but i will just to help out
[08:42] <richard> but not now
[08:42] <swuboo> noapic hasn't really affected me in the least.
[08:42] <ajay> heck my laptops battery is draining too fast off late
[08:42] <swuboo> I was warned my USB devices might get squirrelly, but I'm typing on a USB keyboard.
[08:42] <richard> when do you add noapic on the install?
[08:42] <richard> *where
[08:43] <kevinG> alright...while trying to install the nvidia driver it states: "Unable to find the system utility 'ld'; please make sure you have the package 'binutils' installed. If you do have binutils installed then please check that 'ld' is in your PATH."
[08:43] <swuboo> When the LiveCD menu comes up, hit F6 for "Other Options"
[08:43] <swuboo> It should give you a text box containing the boot parameteres.
[08:43] <Omeganon> kevinG: sudo apt-get install binutils
[08:43] <swuboo> Parameters, pardon.
[08:43] <swuboo> Just stick noapic on the end.  You might want to remove quiet, too.
[08:44] <eyequeue> Wizardling, well, an ubuntu bug has someone that will look into it, try to send it upstream if s/he knows a better contact, and they may well be fluent in the current development, whereas the upstream author may have just let the man page atrophy
[08:44] <RMorris84> ajay: this might be a problem...
[08:44] <RMorris84> but i only have 300mb of space on this hd...
[08:44] <RMorris84> could that be a problem while burning this iso?
[08:44] <kevinG> now it says i'm already running an X server and need to exit
[08:44] <swuboo> I've always stuck noapic before the double hyphens, but I don't know if that's actually important.
[08:45] <ajay> RMorris84, whats the size of your swap and ram?
[08:45] <swuboo> Your mileage may vary so hard as to break the speed of light.
[08:45] <swuboo> But hey, like I said.  It worked for me, and whatever drawbacks it might have had are below my radar.
[08:45] <ajay> have you tried running with sudo??
[08:45] <ajay> sudo gnomebaker
[08:46] <RMorris84> swap is 1gig and ram i have 512mb
[08:46] <Wizardling> eyequeue - cheers. Some of the man authors wrote this stuff years and years ago. Which isn't too suprising. Some programs have not changed a not and don't really need to. Though in a few cases I've noticed, the man pages could be a bit better.
[08:46] <Wizardling> *alot
[08:46] <Wizardling> arrgh
[08:46] <Wizardling> *a lot
[08:46] <Wizardling> I think that's a sign it's time to eat.
[08:46] <eyequeue> Wizardling, yeah, linux could use some really great documentation writers it seems
[08:46] <Wizardling> I must be getting a bit spaced out.
[08:46] <ajay> RMorris84, then i think it shoud be okie. just trying running with sudo
[08:47] <eyequeue> Wizardling, lol at "space"d out, and alot -> a lot :)  btw, applause for fixing that, it's a pet peeve :)
[08:47] <Omeganon> Heh. it's better documented than any other OS I know of.
[08:48] <Wizardling> I think one nice aspect of helping with documentation is it's something even non-prorammers can help with and it's usually not in good shape for free OS's and programs.
[08:48] <eyequeue> Omeganon, yeah, but i'd like to see some superb docs, make newbies lives easier, more ppl using it, all that good stuff :)
[08:48] <Wizardling> or so I think.
[08:48] <Omeganon> yup
[08:49] <eyequeue> Wizardling, yeah, and the option for a non-coder to "give back" is nice to be able to point out
[08:49] <RMorris84> ajay what do u get from this: cdrecord: It looks like 'driveropts=burnfree' does not work for this drive. cdrecord: Please report. cdrecord: Make sure that you are root, enable DMA and check your HW/OS set up.
[08:50] <eyequeue> Wizardling, this channel is often my means for that, but some can't handle the scroll, etc heh
[08:50] <Madpilot> Wizardling, if you're interested in helping with Ubuntu's docs, join #ubuntu-doc
[08:51] <ajay> RMorris84, do you know how to use hdparam
[08:51] <ajay> have you tried running using sudo??
[08:51] <Wizardling> I have helped with some Japanese software in the past. Their English pages were awful.
[08:51] <eyequeue> Wizardling, plus, docs they can take their time with and spell-check, rather than the public embarassment that typing like i do would cause them, lol
[08:51] <Wizardling> So I just offered and was supprised my offer was actually taken up :)
[08:52] <RMorris84> ajay: no
[08:52] <Wizardling> I figure I can write as good as anyone, maybe even a tad better - so long as I don't have to be funny or interesting ;-)
[08:52] <eyequeue> Wizardling, may i ask which?  i found some nice blog software in debian, but it had zero english docs and i had to abandon it ... written in ruby which i think shared the same plight at the time
[08:52] <avalost> damn tropical storms ;/
[08:52] <Wizardling> yes - dry tech docs may be right up my alley, heh
[08:53] <ajay> RMorris84, please try doing that first.
[08:53] <eyequeue> Wizardling, you communicate well, and got "a lot" right, so you have my vote, lol ... um, do you mind me suggesting something?
[08:53] <RMorris84> where at?
[08:54] <Wizardling> not at all
[08:54] <thanatos__> what could prevent xubuntu from haulting the system at shutdown
[08:54] <ajay> on the command line.
[08:55] <xNinja> hello...i have dell poweredge 1600sc with raid-0/raid-5 tried both but ubuntu 6.06 didn`t detect the hard drives
[08:55] <RMorris84> sudo hdparam?
[08:55] <eyequeue> Wizardling, http://doc.ubuntu.com/
[08:55] <xNinja> RMorris84 talking to me ?
[08:55] <RMorris84> no ajay
[08:55] <xNinja> :)
[08:55] <RMorris84> or u if u know how to use hdparam
[08:55] <RMorris84> lol
[08:56] <eyequeue> Wizardling, they have an irc channel here too, i'm sure they'd love to help you get started, and if you want, drop my name, they won't know me probably, lol
[08:56] <xNinja> RMorris84 :D you think this may help me ?
[08:57] <RMorris84> no, but i hope it fixes my bootleg cd writer lol
[08:57] <Wizardling> Oh, and Shiira was one piece of software I submitted some corrects for. But that wasn't much. Before that there was a Marathon utility. Don't ask me the name. It was Mac 68k freeware :-D
[08:57] <RMorris84> ajay are u sure its not hdparm?
[08:58] <Wizardling> *corrections
[08:58] <Wizardling> Gah!
[08:58] <xNinja> how to let ubuntu to detect my scsi drivers ??
[08:58] <Wizardling> Need food!
[08:58] <Wizardling> BBL
[08:58] <swuboo> ...Wizardling needs food, badly?
[08:58] <Wizardling> badly
[08:58] <nalpha> guys how to install various of font using repisotory?
[08:58] <Wizardling> I worked through lunch
[08:58] <Wizardling> now 6:57PM
[08:58] <swuboo> I sincerely hope Wizardling is not about to die.
[08:59] <Wizardling> not die, I'll just deteriorate till I'm totally incomprehensible :-D
[08:59] <swuboo> Never played Gauntlet, then?
[08:59] <Wizardling> OMG
[08:59] <RMorris84> can i write files to /media/sda2 my windows partition with sudo?
[08:59] <Wizardling> Was that the reference!
[08:59] <swuboo> It was.
[09:00] <AstralJava> RMorris84: Not recommendable.
[09:00] <Wizardling> We had a Gauntlet Arcade machine in my University flat!
[09:00] <eyequeue> Wizardling, work through lunch only if the job is fun, or the pay is great, heh
[09:00] <RMorris84> eh it didnt let me anyways lol
[09:00] <hockyhair> hwo do i change the hostname for good.. i did hostname "name" but after a restart my cpu started using the old hostname again
[09:01] <AstralJava> RMorris84: Nope, you need special tools for that, and those tools are not stable, because the filesystem is closed. It is said that it's safe to delete a file from an NTFS file system, but not write anything.
[09:01] <eyequeue> hockyhair, someone may know the "right" answer, but i'll tell you what i did when that happened (on debian, i think)
[09:01] <AstralJava> RMorris84: I wouldn't take even that chance...
[09:01] <eyequeue> hockyhair, say the old hostname was foobar
[09:01] <Wizardling> God - I used to hear Gauntlet's Death sound in my sleep.
[09:02] <Wizardling> Not least cause the arcade machine backed onto the wall to my room :D
[09:02] <Netslayer> am i missing glibc or something ? error: stdio.h: No such file or directory     << so how do i get it?
[09:02] <swuboo> Heh.  When you mentioned the time where you were, I said "Huh.  Wonder where he is with the British usage, nine hours back."
[09:02] <eyequeue> hockyhair, sudo grep -r "foobar" /etc/* | less .... see ay file that string shoiws up in, then edit it ... you may find /etc/mailname or something is the culprit
[09:02] <Wizardling> New Zealand
[09:02] <swuboo> New Zealand was her second guess after I nixed the Philippines.
[09:02] <AstralJava> Umm... guys, don't wanna kill the fun, but the chit chat is making the actual support tasks a bit more difficult to see....
[09:03] <Wizardling> Remember that awful Death sound?
[09:03] <ketsugi> #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:03] <eyequeue> hockyhair, also, i found that some things like my mailer had been told the old name, and it gave me the chance to change those
[09:03] <AstralJava> ketsugi: Thank you! :)
[09:03] <RMorris85> Astraljava: can u help me out with my cd burner :) i dont know why its not burning, its the first time ive tried since using ubuntu
[09:04] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Sure, I'll try. What's the problem?
[09:04] <hockyhair> "foobar" = my current host name?
[09:04] <eyequeue> hockyhair, see any file, rather
[09:04] <RMorris85> well its just not burning i have had a few errors but nothing is seeming to help
[09:04] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Is that -84 nick yours, too? Do you need two, cause it's making the tab completion more difficult... :)
[09:05] <x_O> How to install .exe with WINE? What's the terminal command? Just      wine         followed by the .exe name?
[09:05] <AstralJava> RMorris85: What apps have you tried to use?
[09:05] <eyequeue> hockyhair, no, you're looking to see any place that old string is, so you can change it:  sudo grep -r oldnamehere /etc/* | less
[09:05] <Healot> wine filename.exe >> x_O?
[09:05] <RMorris85> i dont know why that name is in here
[09:05] <RMorris85> gnomebaker
[09:05] <RMorris85> and just right clicking write to cd
[09:05] <HYPOCRISY> you tell me
[09:05] <x_O> Healot: Yea, that's the right usage, right?
[09:05] <nikin> Morris: id there a "cdrw" file in your /dev directory?
[09:05] <AstralJava> RMorris85: So it's not yours then, okay please forget I said anything. :)
[09:05] <Healot> yes, the simplest form, x_O
[09:06] <eyequeue> hockyhair, /etc is where configs live, so that's why you look there, and the list of answers may be long, so that's why the pipe to "less" ... anything else there unclear?
[09:06] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Then could you start gnomebaker from a terminal, and then pastebin the error messages?
[09:06] <RMorris85> nikin: yes
[09:06] <x_O> Healot: Installing win Firefox ... so I can use win Flash lol.
[09:06] <hansheng> hi~~ my EDGy openoffice can't open/save file...  :-/
[09:06] <eyequeue> hockyhair, oh and "q" to get out of less, but somehow i got the impression you're not a newbie to linux?
[09:07] <nikin> RMorris: are you trying to write out an iso file
[09:07] <nikin> ?
[09:07] <RMorris85> nikin: yes :)
[09:07] <Healot> x_O: i did the same too :)
[09:07] <mtholdenss> !itunes
[09:07] <ubotu> itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[09:07] <nikin> RMorris: do you get any error messages when trying?
[09:07] <eyequeue> hansheng, #ubuntu+1
[09:08] <x_O> Healot: Hmm, how do I make the fonts ... not suck in WINE firefox? lol.
[09:08] <KenSentMe> I just tried to install vmware-player on Dapper Drake, but i get this error. Does anyone know how to solve it? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22033
[09:08] <x_O> Ugly ... terminal looking text.
[09:08] <Samuli^> !players > Samuli^
[09:08] <Healot> x_O: haven't figure that out yet
[09:08] <hockyhair> eyequeue: ty.
[09:08] <Healot> wine config file, maybe, x_O
[09:08] <x_O> Oh. Will mess with it later then.
[09:09] <RMorris85> nikin: Error: Cannot gain SYS_RAWIO capability.Is cdrecord installed SUID root?

[09:10] <eyequeue> mtholdenss, if that's automatic, please disable it so the channel isn't overrun with things like that?  thanks
[09:10] <soda42> can anyone tell me how to compile a kernel module without compiling the whole kernel?
[09:10] <x_O> Healot: How do you run Firefox ? from the console... in wine ...
[09:10] <mtholdenss> ok no prob
[09:10] <x_O> no menu entry added
[09:11] <RMorris85> nikin: and cdrecord: The current problem looks like a buffer underrun.cdrecord: Try to use 'driveropts=burnfree'.cdrecord: Make sure that you are root, enable DMA and check your HW/OS set up.
[09:11] <RMorris85> are the only ones that i see glaring right now
[09:11] <eyequeue> hansheng, edgy support is only in #ubuntu+1, please /join #ubuntu+1
[09:11] <vik> Where can I change what device is used for swap?
[09:11] <mistform> how do I get my gnome them to work?
[09:11] <nikin> RMorris: are you sure you have the rights to burn a cd?
[09:12] <RMorris85> as in?
[09:12] <AstralJava> RMorris85: DMA is easy to check: sudo hdparm -d /dev/cdrw (or whatever /dev/* you're using)
[09:12] <soda42> can anyone tell me how to compile a kernel module without compiling the whole kernel?
[09:12] <eyequeue> vik, at boot time, /etc/fstab is read
[09:12] <x_O> mistform: You downloaded a Gnome theme and want to install it?
[09:12] <Healot> wine "~/.wine/c/program files/mozilla firefox/firefox.exe" << this is where i installed it, x_O
[09:12] <mistform> x_O: yes
[09:12] <mistform> I had to reformat because I had an error on the hard drive when the computer locked up last night
[09:12] <eyequeue> vik, i think you'd have to reboot after changing that file, gksudo gedit /etc/fstab, to edit it
[09:12] <vik> eyequeue: that was the old way, which was nice and simple. Now it seems to use /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-swap_1
[09:12] <x_O> It's usally a matter of just dragging the file you downloaded into the Theme window (System --> Preferences > Theme
[09:13] <vik> or maybe that's to do with LVM
[09:13] <eyequeue> vik, wow, thanks for educating me, but ... does that source fstab to populate the /dev?  i'm not sure myself
[09:13] <RMorris85> AstralJava: sudo hdparm -d /dev/cdrw
[09:13] <xNinja> howto install ubuntu 6.06 on scsi raid0 ??
[09:13] <eyequeue> !raid
[09:13] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[09:13] <xNinja> now ubuntu booted up but when i do fdisk -l nothing there
[09:14] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Yes, type that in a terminal window. :)
[09:14] <RMorris85> sudo hdparm -d /dev/cdrw
[09:14] <RMorris85> oops
[09:14] <RMorris85> oops
[09:14] <vik> eyequeue: I just realised that that's just for my system I think - it's using LVM on one of the drives, which maps those names using the device mapper.
[09:14] <RMorris85> using_dma    =  1 (on)
[09:14] <x_O> How do I make my application menu update itself?
[09:14] <AstralJava> xNinja: You need to use sudo.
[09:14] <x_O> (to include wine and its installed apps)
[09:14] <eyequeue> vik, ahh, and i'm lvm non-fluent, so that explains that part
[09:14] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Okay good, that's correct then.
[09:15] <soda42> can anyone tell me how to compile a kernel module without compiling the whole kernel?
[09:15] <vik> eyequeue: neither am I :) But there's one way to learn...
[09:15] <gansinho> someone here uses VLC?
[09:15] <kevinG_> how do i exit the X server?
[09:15] <soda42> kevinG_:ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:15] <Samuli^> soda42, that just restarts it.. oh well :)
[09:15] <eyequeue> soda42, sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers
[09:16] <nikin> kevingG_ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm.stop
[09:16] <hockyhair> worked :)
[09:16] <nikin> kevingG_ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop sorry
[09:16] <xNinja> AstralJava i did use sudo but also thing there
[09:16] <eyequeue> hockyhair, cool
[09:16] <x_O> LMFAO http://youtube.com/watch?v=bn1-M5Ze0p8 look at that video, anyone that can lol.
[09:16] <x_O> It's funny,
[09:16] <kevinG> ctrl+alt+backspace just restarted linux
[09:16] <hockyhair> eyequeue: you dont by any chance know how to get identd working do ya?
[09:16] <xNinja> i have a dell poweredge 1600sc server with raid0 or raid5 wich can work i'll use it
[09:16] <vik> Is there any advantage to having two swap partitions active? One is on my primary drive, the other I've just created on a secondary drive which gets used less. Should I just get rid of the first one?
[09:16] <soda42> eyequeue:i have that i need to recompile a module called via82cxxx
[09:17] <Samuli^> kevinG: <nikin> kevingG_ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm.stop
[09:17] <DJAdmiral> kevinG: ctrl alt backspace does not restart linux - it restarts X
[09:17] <eyequeue> hockyhair, have you installed any of the identd packages?
[09:17] <soda42> eyequeue:can u tell me the best way to recompile it?
[09:17] <Samuli^> uhh, gdm stop
[09:17] <hockyhair> eyequeue: oidentd
[09:17] <eyequeue> hockyhair, something like sudo apt-get install oidentd, but pick the one you like if you have a preference
[09:17] <kevinG> well, yeah it did that...i'm trying to install the nvidia driver and i have to be out of X
[09:17] <AstralJava> xNinja: Oh, well then I can't help you more, sorry. Don't really know that much about hardware issues.
[09:17] <kevinG> i'll try samuli^'s method
[09:17] <hockyhair> eyequeue: i got oidentd already, but it has yet to work
[09:17] <hockyhair> lol
[09:17] <DJAdmiral> are logs of ubuntu support chat posted anywhere?
[09:18] <x_O> arrrrgh... system...F R E E Z I N G
[09:18] <soda42> eyequeue:i have to source code for it under the kernel source tree
[09:18] <Samuli^> that stops gdm and startx but it should be okay.
[09:18] <soda42> eyequeue:i just need to know the correct procedure to recompile a module
[09:18] <x_O> Ubuntu DYING :-|
[09:18] <eyequeue> hockyhair, okay, my next guess would be that your firewall may be blocking port 113?
[09:18] <hockyhair> nope fowarded it on both the router and hte firewall
[09:18] <xNinja> lol
[09:19] <eyequeue> soda42, someone else will know better than i, but if you don't make clean, it should happen (fast) with a make, i thought
[09:19] <RMorris85> AstralJava: when i put a cd in it takes about 2-3 mins before it says, inserted blank media what u wanna do with it lol
[09:19] <AstralJava> soda42: I'm not exactly sure, but you could possibly use module-assistant.
[09:19] <DJAdmiral> where can I find the chatlogs for this chatroom?
[09:19] <DJAdmiral> I want to look something up
[09:19] <soda42> astraljava:module-assistant?
[09:19] <Samuli^> kevinG, ermm. I mean it stops gdm and startx won't work. So you have to sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart after you've installed the drivers.
[09:19] <keram> hey
[09:19] <keram> how do i convert ogg to mp3?
[09:20] <eyequeue> hockyhair, there really is an answer, i know it, but you're talking to someone who always has to wait for it to timeout when i connect to freenode :(  sorry ... if you find out though, please tell me?
[09:20] <AstralJava> RMorris85: That sounds like a hardware issue, but also could be anything really. Have you verified that the drive works, say, under another distro or something?
[09:20] <nikin> keram: Rezound wil do the job, if you have installed lame
[09:20] <kevinG> well i can't install the driver until X stops running
[09:20] <RMorris85> AstralJava: yea on XP lol
[09:20] <hockyhair> eyequeue: you got it.
[09:20] <CiRuS> keran: soundconverter works as well
[09:20] <nikin> kevinG then just sto it :D
[09:20] <keram> lame isnt in the repositories?
[09:20] <AstralJava> soda42: Yes, man module-assistant says
[09:20] <AstralJava> NAME
[09:20] <AstralJava>        module-assistant - manage kernel modules packages
[09:20] <Madpilot> DJAdmiral, http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs
[09:21] <eyequeue>  mp32ogg (1)          - Convert MP3 to Ogg Vorbis
[09:21] <RMorris85> if i could move the file over there i would burn it in xp
[09:21] <nikin> keram: i think it is
[09:21] <DJAdmiral> Thanks Madpilot!
[09:21] <kevinG> how do I stop it?
[09:21] <nikin> !lame
[09:21] <ubotu> lame: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-1 (dapper), package size 222 kB, installed size 620 kB
[09:21] <keram> ogg2mp3
[09:21] <eyequeue> module-assistant, taht's the thing i couldn't think of the name for!!  thanks AstralJava
[09:21] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Okay then. What's the manufacturer and the model of the drive?
[09:21] <Samuli^> kevinG, perhaps sudo init 1? that should stop just about everything but bash.
[09:21] <AstralJava> eyequeue: Sure, no prob. :)
[09:21] <kevinG> ok, i'll try that
[09:21] <eyequeue> soda42, AstralJava is right, i just had a mental block
[09:22] <x_O> How do you get out of a MAN page in the Console??
[09:22] <eyequeue> x_O, "q"
[09:22] <keram> is glame the same thing as lame?
[09:22] <AstralJava> x_O: Type q
[09:22] <x_O> ah thanks.
[09:22] <keram> toolame? twolame?
[09:22] <soda42> astraljava:so what should i do say i edited a header and .c file ...how to update it?
[09:22] <Samuli^> kevinG, and to get back to multiuser sudo init 2
[09:22] <xNinja> nice i did tried to do fdisk /dev/sda and it did work!!
[09:22] <eyequeue> x_O, for future reference, the man pager pipes it into something called "less" and q quits less, you'll find many things use "less" in linux :)
[09:23] <xNinja> i'll install vmware server on that poweredge server
[09:23] <AstralJava> keram: Sounds like glame is a Gnome frontend for lame, but I could be horribly wrong here. It's known to happen before... :)
[09:23] <kevinG> when i do sudo init 1, do i have to restart for it to take effect?
[09:23] <lothrids> Has anyone had any luck getting Echolinux to run under Ubuntu?
[09:23] <xNinja> i'll run alot of operating systems and start doing pentesting :P
[09:23] <AstralJava> soda42: Are the source files at the correct location?
[09:24] <eyequeue> kevinG, telinit 1?
[09:24] <soda42> astraljava:i just have to edit 2 files under the kernel source tree
[09:24] <tabman> I'm trying to run oowriter from the terminal but I want that the prompt should not appear on the terminal after I do oowriter, as I'm writing a java macro and I need to see the outputs send to Console, is it possible ?
[09:24] <soda42> astraljava:after editing those 2 files i dont want to recompile the whole kernel
[09:24] <keram> how do you use rezound?
[09:25] <soda42> astraljava:they are for a module called via82cxxx
[09:25] <Netslayer> what video player comes on the livecd?
[09:25] <AstralJava> soda42: Okay then. I suppose after editing you run sudo module-assistant, and work from there. It's a console tool but quite easy to use. Under it you should find how to update the list and then choose the one(s) you want to build.
[09:25] <RMorris85> AstralJava: how can i move this file over to windows partition and burn it there?
[09:25] <Samuli^> kevinG, probably not.
[09:25] <DJAdmiral> Netslayer: Totem
[09:25] <x_O> E: mldonkey-server: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 ... arrgh, how do I fix this problem?
[09:25] <hockyhair> how do i check my runlevel?
[09:26] <hockyhair> eyequeue: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-227857.html
[09:26] <DJAdmiral> x_O: there has to be something before that in order to figure out what exactly is wrong
[09:26] <kevinG> hmm...nothing seems to go in effect when i type it out..just goes to the next line
[09:26] <eyequeue> soda42, module-assistant makes a .deb out of the one module, which you then sudo dpkg -i foo*deb to install
[09:26] <x_O> DJAdmiral: I'm putting it in pastbin
[09:26] <AstralJava> RMorris85: You don't wanna write to an NTFS partition, so do you have any free space where you could create a FAT32 partition, for instance? Or do you have a USB stick or something?
[09:26] <tabman> also what other options are there to use with the & operator ?
[09:26] <DJAdmiral> x_O: great!
[09:26] <x_O> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22218http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22218
[09:26] <x_O> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22218
[09:26] <x_O> Hmm. Strange, lol. Middle clicked, and it did it twice.
[09:27] <chesty> can anyone help me work out why all mono apps seg fault with "Got a SIGSEGV while executing native code..." in this new dapper xen install?
[09:27] <DJAdmiral> x_O: I'll look through that now
[09:28] <AnAnt> what does "bashism" mean ?
[09:28] <x_O> DJAdmiral: Thanks, lol.
[09:28] <RMorris85> AstralJava: yea i have 10gig free i could play with
[09:28] <eyequeue> hockyhair, sad that the package doesn't do that itself (someone file a bug yet?) but i'll have to try it now here :) i hope my upstream machine doesn't block 113 and does forward it to the lappie
[09:28] <eyequeue> hockyhair, thanks for the howto :)
[09:28] <chesty> AnAnt: syntax that only works in bash
[09:29] <eyequeue> AnAnt, okay, context may help, but:  there are other bourne shells,
[09:29] <tabman> someone answer my 2 questions please
[09:29] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Great! You can create a new partition with gparted, for example. Then you can read/write to/from that FAT32 partition from either OS.
[09:29] <kevinG> will "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx" install the nvidia drivers correctly?
[09:29] <RMorris85> oh realllllly? with what?
[09:29] <RMorris85> gparted?
[09:29] <AnAnt> chesty: how do I know that a certain syntax works only in bash ?
[09:30] <eyequeue> AnAnt, some commands should work in all, some may only work in bash ... it probbaly means someone assumed it would work in all, but oinly works in bash, so someone else got burned if they use ash/dash/zsh/whichever :)
[09:30] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Of course it would benefit you more if we could work out the problem of that burner inside Ubuntu, but maybe some other time. :)
[09:30] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Yes, gparted is a good tool.
[09:30] <eyequeue> AnAnt, if it's in man bash but not in man dash or whatever? :)
[09:30] <Samuli^> kevinG, are you sure you need to install them without X running.. I think you just need to restart it after you've installed.
[09:30] <RMorris85> yeah i just wanna get this burned and if it means going to windoze then i must...
[09:30] <AnAnt> eyequeue: so I am supposed to check the man page of every shell in earth ?
[09:30] <RMorris85> how do i run gparted?
[09:31] <chesty> AnAnt: i guess the easiest way is run it with dash, if it works in bash but not dash, it has bashisms
[09:31] <AnAnt> ic, thanks
[09:31] <eyequeue> AnAnt, of course not, but that's probably the official answer ... i'm trying to think of a simpler way, maybe some google search for "bashisms"?  someone here has to have a better answer than i do
[09:31] <kevinG> actually...i'm looking it up on the forums and some guy went through the same thing i did and another person responded "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx" will install the drivers
[09:32] <kevinG> which is what i did so i believe the driver is installed...but that wasn't my main problem to begin with
[09:32] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Have you installed it? If so, then it should be found in the System | Administration menu, Gnome Partition Editor.
[09:32] <AnAnt> eyequeue: is there a while [[ ] ]   in dash ?
[09:32] <kevinG> i can't seem to enable xgl
[09:32] <kevinG> i mean
[09:32] <kevinG> glx
[09:32] <AnAnt> err, nevermind
[09:33] <Samuli^> kevinG, you probably need to enable the driver in xorg.conf with dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or just editing the file.
[09:33] <kevinG> i get this error
[09:33] <kevinG> Error: your X configuration has been altered.
[09:33] <kevinG> This script cannot proceed automatically. If you believe that this
[09:33] <kevinG> not correct, you can update the md5sum entry executing the following
[09:33] <kevinG> command:
[09:33] <kevinG> md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf | sudo tee /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum
[09:33] <morphix> hmm..
[09:33] <kevinG> otherwise edit manually /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the Driver section
[09:33] <kevinG> from nv to nvidia.
[09:33] <RMorris85> AstralJava: no i dont see it there...
[09:33] <Madpilot> kevinG, Pastebin!
[09:33] <eyequeue> AnAnt, i'm not really a shell coder, i knew enough so that when i see something now i'm probably able to read it, not much else, sorry
[09:33] <AstralJava> RMorris85: No prob, just do `sudo apt-get install gparted`. That should do it. Or find it in Synaptic, whichever you prefer. :)
[09:33] <RMorris85> sweet
[09:34] <earthian> hello
[09:34] <morphix> i installed bitlbee using repos (apt-get), but i decided to compile it, so i uninstalled it, BUT the tcp port (6667) that bitlbee was using is STILL being used except i cant find a process associated with the port :S
[09:34] <kevinG> and i did edit the xorg.config where it said "nv" to "nvidia", yet it still didn't work
[09:34] <silian87> hello to all
[09:34] <earthian> how to kill a particular process?
[09:34] <Helplesswireless> kill -9 pid#
[09:34] <Samuli^> kevinG, hmm, and you restarted X after doing that?
[09:34] <x_O> DJAdmiral: You around?
[09:34] <earthian> how to get pid# ?
[09:34] <Helplesswireless> ps -aux
[09:34] <earthian> ok thanks
[09:34] <silian87> I have a problem starting amarok 1.4.2, amarok:       [CollectionDB]  [ERROR!]  no such table: tags
[09:34] <tabman> man I'm asking 2 very simple questions
[09:34] <Helplesswireless> np:)
[09:35] <RMorris85> AstralJava: i see it now but all my disks have a lock on them
[09:35] <kevinG> ctrl+alt+backspace restarts, right?
[09:35] <denver1> hi i'd like to know what program i use to install mp3 support etc for ubuntu
[09:35] <Samuli^> yes.
[09:35] <atsugnam> kevinG, that restarts X only
[09:35] <Helplesswireless> Hi all, was wondering if someone can help me get my wireless internet working with ndiswrapper.  I can finally get the usbkey to communicate with the router, but am unable to ping/connect to the internet.
[09:35] <Samuli^> that's what he wanted
[09:35] <swuboo> denver1: I like XMMS myself.
[09:35] <kukkaisrinsessa> ok
[09:35] <silian87> anyone using amarok 1.4.2?
[09:36] <Helplesswireless> denv: i suggest using automatix and installing a bunch of packages you'll be needing/finding useful
[09:36] <swuboo> denver1: mplayer also works, and amarok I hear is good for KDE.
[09:36] <earthian> another thing: when i shut down/restart/logout my KDE/linux my computer turns off my gfx card and stops. yesterday evening i turned off my computer and todaymorning i found it with a blank screen not responding to anything...
[09:36] <denver1> it installs flash, java etc
[09:36] <RMorris85> AstralJava: do i need to unmount the one i want to partition?
[09:36] <AstralJava> RMorris85: That's weird, if it's free space then it shouldn't be in use.
[09:36] <earthian> is it a bug?
[09:36] <earthian> where i get more info about it?
[09:36] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Yes, of course. How are you using it atm?
[09:36] <RMorris85> atm?
[09:36] <silian87> mmm ok... can I tell amarok to start using mysql and DON'T try to use sqlite
[09:36] <AstralJava> RMorris85: at the moment...
[09:37] <denver1> anyone?
[09:37] <x_O> Can anyone take a look at this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22218
[09:37] <kevinG> bah...same problem
[09:37] <Helplesswireless> denver, scroll up (automatix)
[09:37] <denver1> ahhh  thanks
[09:37] <AstralJava> denver1: There's a webpage that will help you out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[09:38] <tabman> wow this community used to be so helpful, its turning somewhat unresponsive now
[09:38] <RMorris85> AstralJava: /dev/sda1 is where windows is with 10 gig free and /dev/sda2 is where ubuntu is
[09:38] <AstralJava> denver1: Please don't use automatix, it's been known to break some systems.
[09:38] <denver1> thanx
[09:38] <DJAdmiral> tabman: most of us are really busy now
[09:38] <DJAdmiral> tabman: sorry if we couldn't help out one day
[09:38] <denver1> k
[09:38] <swuboo> tabman: What exactly is your question?  Not that I can necessarily help, but I'll try.
[09:38] <Helplesswireless> ? i have not heard of anyone having problems with automatix. what do you mean 'break' the system?
[09:38] <DJAdmiral> denver1: I would suggest you use easyubuntu instead
[09:38] <DJAdmiral> Helplesswireless: automatix ends up messing a lot of things
[09:39] <denver1> ok i've heard of it
[09:39] <x_O> DJAdmiral:  ... take a look at my pastbin? Maybe you can shed some light on wtf the problem is lol.
[09:39] <Samuli^> kevinG, do you have linux-resticted-modules?
[09:39] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize that it's inside Windows. I suppose you should use a Windows program for freeing that space, but be sure to backup all your valuable data first!
[09:39] <Helplesswireless> Could you be a bit more specific?
[09:39] <tabman> DJAdmiral, right, if you could look into my 2 simple questions ?
[09:39] <DJAdmiral> x_O: as far as I can see it's a bit of a bug in the install script
[09:39] <kevinG> yes, i believe so
[09:39] <x_O> DJAdmiral:  ... so does this mean that the mldonkey server is plain broken, or ... it just gave m odd output?
[09:39] <DJAdmiral> tabman: I'm also busy at the moment. but then again, I'll still try. what questions?
[09:40] <tjb> Has anyone installed an Alcatel Speedtouch USB 330 on Ubuntu?
[09:40] <swuboo> tabman: What are those questions?
[09:40] <sanddrag696> Has anyone installing xgl and compiz?  When I try to log into my XGL session, it just returns to the login screen.  Could this be caused by not having the right graphics driver?
[09:40] <RMorris85> AstralJava: i heard of a program that i can use to read ext2 from windows how easy is that
[09:40] <kevinG> i have to go into the synaptic package manager, and go into software preferences?
[09:40] <DJAdmiral> x_O: try this: sudo apt-get install mlnetinstall
[09:40] <x_O> Ok, thanks I'll try and let you know what happened.
[09:40] <tabman> DJAdmiral: I want to open oowriter from the terminal but I don't want the terminal to show the prompt again and stay sort of binded with the app as i need to send some output to the console from the macro I'll run inside the program
[09:40] <markperters> grub> setup (hd0)
[09:40] <markperters>  Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... no
[09:40] <markperters>  Checking if "/grub/stage1" exists... no
[09:40] <markperters> Error 24: Attempt to access block outside partition
[09:40] <markperters> what the fsck
[09:41] <DJAdmiral> x_O: please do
[09:41] <tabman> swuboo: I posted above the first question
[09:41] <DJAdmiral> markperters: try the pastebin
[09:41] <x_O> LOL @ markperters ... try Ubuntu Pastebin.
[09:41] <AstralJava> RMorris85: I have heard there are tools for reading ext2/3 partitions from windows, but have never used them. I suppose it's no biggie, though. Ext2/3 are open filesystems, so there shouldn't be any danger.
[09:41] <x_O> ... argh someone always beats me to it lol.
[09:41] <markperters> 3 lines
[09:41] <markperters> come on
[09:41] <markperters> ;P
[09:41] <DJAdmiral> markperters: four actually lol
[09:41] <tabman> DJAdmiral: someone suggest you could work around this with the & operator, is it possible is there a man for the & operator as far as I know & detaches the terminal from the process
[09:41] <RMorris85> imma try that thanks
[09:41] <DJAdmiral> markperters: but nonetheless do mind thy language :P
[09:41] <x_O> markperters: it's not that it was 4 lines... its that... SEVERE LAG is caused lol when people do that.
[09:41] <Helplesswireless> tabman: why not make an icon?
[09:42] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Come back if it won't work. Hopefully someone who knows more is here to help you then. :)
[09:42] <DJAdmiral> x_O: right on! XD
[09:42] <RMorris85> im sure ill be back lol
[09:42] <tabman> Helplesswireless: I told above I need to send output to the console so I want the terminal to remain attached with the oowriter process
[09:42] <swuboo> tabman: Yeah, I'm sorry.  I don't know how to launch an application from a terminal without making that application an appendage of it.
[09:42] <AstralJava> RMorris85: Okay good, sorry I couldn't be of more help, good luck with it!
[09:42] <tjb> How do I install gcc without connecting to the 'net?  I installed Ubuntu from the CD and it didn't come with gcc apparently.
[09:42] <Helplesswireless> Ah i see, sorry, i just joined the chan.
[09:43] <kishore> i am unable to boot in to ubuntu...
[09:43] <kishore> dapper
[09:43] <kishore> after loadign all driver its .just.. sitting idle
[09:43] <kishore> not prompting for password
[09:43] <Helplesswireless> tabman: i've ran programs like this before using && i think , can't remember exactly how though
[09:43] <AstralJava> tjb: Try the cd and issue `sudo apt-get install build-essential` in a terminal.
[09:44] <x_O> DJAdmiral: It said it couldn't find the package. (sudo apt-get install mlnetinstall)
[09:44] <tabman> Helplesswireless: please check if you can find something or refer me to a resource
[09:44] <Helplesswireless>  Hi all, was wondering if someone can help me get my wireless internet working with ndiswrapper.  I can finally get the usbkey to communicate with the router, but am unable to ping/connect to the internet.
[09:44] <AstralJava> tjb: Not sure if the cd includes this, but hopefully it does.
[09:44] <kishore> if i restart again its booting
[09:44] <DJAdmiral> I will be right back people!
[09:44] <swuboo> kishore: Beyond my ken, friend.  Unless you're using an AMD64 X2 on an nForce 5xx chipset.
[09:44] <x_O> DJAdmiral: I tried installing totem-xine, but now the MLdonkey ... deal is messing with things. Here's a pastbin :
[09:44] <tjb> AstralJava: It says 'Package build-essential is not available, but is referre to by another package.'
[09:45] <x_O> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22219
[09:45] <kishore> swuboo, intel here
[09:45] <swuboo> kishore, sorry, no idea then.
[09:45] <earthian> !pastebin
[09:45] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[09:46] <Helplesswireless> tabman, i wonder if it's possible to simply do a oowriter > myoutput.txt
[09:46] <Helplesswireless> probably not that easy:(
[09:46] <swuboo> Helplesswireless: I doubt that would work.
[09:47] <tabman> Helplesswireless: I'll try this, any other possibilities ?
[09:47] <kishore> can any one help
[09:47] <sysdoc> Are the repos' still down?
[09:47] <tabman> Helplesswireless: what about working around with the & operator, don't there exist man for these operator, can you refer me to those
[09:47] <tarve1> hows everyone this morning
[09:47] <swuboo> Helplesswireless:  Specifically, that would output all output from oowriter to the textfile, which, considering that oowriter is a graphical application, would probably have very unpleasant results.
[09:48] <Helplesswireless> swuboo, that's what i was afraid of.
[09:48] <AstralJava> tjb: If you had the install cd inside the cd-rom while issuing that, then if probably isn't on the cd. You could go to http://packages.ubuntu.com on another machine and download all the packages build-essential depends on, transfer the .debs to your ubuntu machine and sudo dpkg -i *.deb for each file. Not sure if that will work, however, but worth a try I guess.
[09:48] <swuboo> Help etc.: Me too.
[09:49] <tjb> AstralJava: Sorry -- I didn't have the CD in.  One sec
[09:49] <swuboo> Well Hell, I've got 200 gigs free.  I could try it and see what happens.
[09:49] <AstralJava> tjb: Heh, no prob. ;)
[09:50] <tjb> AstralJava: It says 'unmet dependencies'.
[09:50] <AstralJava> sysdoc: Using a swedish mirror, it's working. :)
[09:50] <tjb> It didn't install gcc.  =(
[09:50] <AstralJava> tjb: Just that?
[09:50] <AstralJava> tjb: Please pastebin the whole error message.
[09:50] <swuboo> Huh.  I get a permission denied.
[09:51] <swuboo> I'd sudo it, but frankly, that's a horrible idea.
[09:51] <Helplesswireless> tabman, still searching.
[09:51] <peace-keeper> what i do wrong if ubuntu is much slower than win xp? (playing a simple mp3 uses 60-70% cpu time, while on windows it's only about 5%)
[09:52] <Netslayer> apt-get install mplayer isn't showing up
did you enable harddrive dma?
[09:52] <peace-keeper> not that i know of
[09:53] <morphix> i installed bitlbee using repos (apt-get), but i decided to compile it, so i uninstalled it, BUT the tcp port (6667) that bitlbee was using is STILL being used except i cant find a process associated with the port :/
[09:53] <soda42> peace-keeper: sudo hdparm -d /dev/hda
[09:53] <soda42> peace-keeper:what does it say
[09:53] <Helplesswireless> netslayer, did you try searching it in synaptic?
[09:53] <peace-keeper> it says 1 (on)
[09:53] <Netslayer> i'm on the lived
[09:53] <Netslayer> Helplesswireless, i'm in console no X
[09:53] <Helplesswireless> Netslayer need to add repositories
[09:54] <soda42> peace-keeper:what kind of cpu do you have
[09:54] <swuboo> Netslayer:  You mean you're on the LiveCD?
[09:54] <tabman> Helplesswireless: Thanks I'm waiting for the response
[09:54] <peace-keeper> athlon 500
[09:54] <peace-keeper> i know it's old, but still win xp is quite fast
[09:54] <Netslayer> what is the repo conf file?
[09:54] <peace-keeper> :(
[09:54] <soda42> peace-keeper:hmmmmmm maybe someone else here can help u~
[09:55] <tjb> AstralJava: http://pastebin.com/781181
[09:55] <peace-keeper> maybe ubuntu is generally slower than windows :D
[09:56] <peace-keeper> or maybe mplayer is just shit
[09:56] <haffe> 'ello.
[09:56] <kishore> no clarity of sound n video in mplayer
[09:56] <Bot_Builder> does anyone know the name of the toolbar widged that lets you do all kinds of things - integrated search, execute, etc?  I used to have it, but after this reinstall i've forgotten its name
[09:56] <kishore> how to get rid of this
[09:56] <loco13> why ubunto don't detect my wireless card
[09:56] <swuboo> peace-keeper: In my experience, neither is true.
[09:56] <haffe> Has anyone else had the problem that the altgrkey stops working with xgl +compiz?
[09:56] <loco13> somebody helpme please
[09:57] <loco13> please
[09:57] <sysdoc> peace-keeper, No windows isn't faster than Linux, You need the right IDE controler and Kernel to make the Athlon perform...
[09:57] <Netslayer> can someone tell me which repo mplayer is in
[09:57] <Netslayer> this is the only thing i hate about ubuntu
[09:57] <haffe> loco13: what kind of wireless card is it?
[09:57] <[tjb] > AstralJava: I got disconnected.
[09:57] <DarkMageZ> Netslayer, universe
[09:57] <swuboo> sysdoc: I agree, something is wrong if an MP3 is taking up that much proc time.
[09:57] <Helplesswireless> loco13, what card is it
[09:57] <loco13> is belkin dsktop
[09:57] <peace-keeper> my kernel is 2.6.15-26-k7 #1 SMP PREEMPT.... does that sound right for amd athlon ?
[09:58] <kishore> Netslayer, same prob here mplayer.. not giving correct output
[09:58] <haffe> loco13: USB or PCI?
[09:58] <swuboo> Er... should peace-keeper be using an SMP kernel?
[09:58] <soda42> peace-keeper:yah should be..k7 is athlon
[09:58] <Netslayer> DarkMageZ, i have deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse, did apt-get update, apt-get install mplayer and nodda
[09:58] <peace-keeper> hmm
[09:58] <soda42> swuboo:i am using SMP too..and its not that slow
[09:58] <sysdoc> Yea, the older chip sets and CPU's need a kernel compiled for that setup...
[09:58] <loco13> is pci
[09:58] <swuboo> I'm using SMP as well, but I have multiple cores.
[09:59] <loco13> detect the card like ETH1
[09:59] <DarkMageZ> Netslayer, that will only give you universe backports :P
[09:59] <cwillu> how easy is it to back out an upgrade/downgrade to a previous xserver-xorg version?  I'm getting hardlocks in x since the last update
[09:59] <peace-keeper> well maybe after 8 years it's time for getting a new comp :D
[09:59] <haffe> loco13: Do a lspci and tell us what chipset it is.
[09:59] <sysdoc> peace-keeper, no not fot a 500 athlon... wrong kernel.
[10:00] <sysdoc> for*
[10:00] <peace-keeper> hmm so what i do? download other one or compile it myself ?
[10:00] <sysdoc> yup
[10:00] <loco13> http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=179458
[10:00] <loco13> this is my wireless card
[10:01] <peace-keeper> can i get kernel source with apt-get ?
[10:01] <haffe> loco13: That does not tell us what chipset it is.
[10:01] <sysdoc> peace-keeper, that should be the first thing that you do. See the forum, find a howto on compiling the kernel and follow the instructions
[10:02] <gary4gar> hi all can someone please tell me how i can run a Prolink Pixelview PV-BT878P
[10:02] <swuboo> sysdoc: You don't think synaptic will have anything for him?
[10:02] <peace-keeper> kk i try that
[10:02] <Netslayer> fyi it was multiverse
[10:02] <sysdoc> Make sure you get the IDE driver right
[10:02] <gary4gar> in ubuntu
[10:02] <loco13> is a p4
[10:02] <sysdoc> Of course
[10:02] <peace-keeper> ive compiled kernels before, i think i'll be fine
[10:02] <peace-keeper> thx
[10:02] <swuboo> Well then, carry on, good sir!
[10:02] <sysdoc> apt-get or symaptic
[10:02] <hype> hi all
[10:02] <kishore> can i use bitcomet in ubuntu to download ..
[10:02] <hype> anybody know about Internet DJ consile and you to get it working on Dapper?
[10:03] <Madpilot> gary4gar, what is that? Printer, camera, scanner?
[10:03] <kishore> how to use or enable bitcomet here in ubuntu
[10:03] <[tjb] > AstralJava: Are you still here?
[10:03] <kishore> can any one help
[10:03] <sysdoc> When you get the right ide driver compiler you'll go from about 4 megs a sec to over 16... huge performance increase
[10:03] <hype> bitcomet is a torrent client?
[10:03] <gary4gar> it is tv tuner card, Madpilot
[10:03] <sysdoc> compiled*
[10:04] <kishore> where can i find bitcomet here
[10:04] <Madpilot> gary4gar, ah, OK. I know zip about TV tuner cards - sorry.
[10:04] <gary4gar> ok
[10:04] <gary4gar> Madpilot,
[10:04] <hype> if you need a torrent client, take transmission , not sure bitcomet is under linux
[10:04] <hype> you have like 10 bittorent clients anyway
[10:05] <soda42> i just edited :/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15/drivers/ide/pci/via82cxxx.c, how do i compile it to make the new module comeout without recompiling the whole kernel?
[10:05] <kishore> hype, but how can i use bitcoment here.. hav to downlaod any thing
[10:05] <x_O> Could someone help me out with this, by taking a quick look ?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22219
[10:05] <gary4gar> kishore, try it in wine?
[10:05] <x_O> I think I found a fix for it, although I don't know how to apply it  :   https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/mldonkey/+bug/56837
[10:06] <gary4gar> but why hell u want bitcommet only, kishore
[10:06] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> Does anyone know where I can donwload edgy eft knot2? The relase date was Aug 31, Today is Sep 1!
[10:06] <x_O> " install -o mldonkey -g mldonkey -m 755 -T /dev/null $PIDFILE  "  not sure what to do with that.
[10:06] <hype> kishore, you DONT NEED bitcomet to download torrents, just another bittorent client: transmission, ktorrent...
[10:07] <gary4gar> try azuresus or bittornado
[10:07] <x_O> death to azureus lol.
[10:07] <soda42> i just edited :/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.15/drivers/ide/pci/via82cxxx.c, how do i compile it to make the new module driver comeout without recompiling the whole kernel?
[10:07] <gary4gar> x_O, ???
[10:07] <x_O> Built in Bittorent client works ok for me (for the first time) .... fresh instlal.
[10:07] <kishore> gary4gar, i can get.. more and more stuff there only i got more than 1gb of java books there only
[10:07] <loco13>  8-)
[10:07] <morphix> why would inetutils-inetd be holding onto a tcp port that has no application using it? i cant stop that port from listening unless i stop inetutils-inetd
[10:07] <x_O> gary4gar: I despise that program, lol .. works alright on OSX though.
[10:09] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> EdgyEft: Whats the hold up on the knot2 relese?
[10:09] <kishore> hype, but i cant find tat transmission in synaptic pakage manager. i could find  only ktorrent
[10:09] <AstralJava> tjb: I'm here, was away for a bit, sorry. :)
[10:09] <hype> kishore, wait
[10:09] <gary4gar> kishore, every torrent can d/l a torent, its not like that only bitcommet can d/l some files, even u can resume a torrret with diffrent client
[10:09] <[tjb] > AstralJava: my name has changed
[10:10] <cwillu> ever since the last update, my ati9250 seems to be causing system hangs;  /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows a bunch of "GetBuffer timed out, resetting engine..." errors
[10:10] <gary4gar> also bitcommet is banned in many private trackers
[10:10] <[tjb] > Man, this is so tricky.  Why must it be so hard to install a simple USB modem?
[10:10] <kishore> hype,k can i do any thing with this ktorrent..
[10:10] <x_O> gary4gar, kishore, I have found that SOME trackers don't let SOME clients work.
[10:10] <Madpilot> kishore, Ubuntu includes a bittorrent client by default...
[10:10] <x_O> Like, it bans certain clients from the tracker. This is rare though.
[10:10] <cwillu> I've swapped in a pci ati card of the same model, with the same error, but a different older pci card works fine
[10:10] <gary4gar> ya, many private trackers
[10:10] <hype> kishore, http://www.tikal26.net/ubuntu/apt/dists/dapper/main/binary-i386/unique/transmission_0.5-3ubuntuplus1.deb
[10:10] <kishore> Madpilot, but whr can i found
[10:10] <[tjb] > This is what I hate about Linux.  Something so trivial takes about 12 hours of my time, and then I just give up with it.
[10:10] <Madpilot> kishore, Applications->Internet->BitTorrent
[10:10] <expertweb> hello
[10:11] <kishore> Madpilot, i cant find there

[10:12] <x_O> peace-keeper: No kidding, lol I've gotten a TON of help from here. Still have some minor issues though.
[10:12] <Madpilot> kishore, sorry, I forgot that it's invisble by default. Go to any torrent site, click on a link to a .torrent file, and everything should happen automatically
[10:12] <hype> then  sudo dpkg -i transmission_0.5-3ubuntuplus1.deb
[10:12] <Bot_Builder> peace-keeper: yeah, it's one of ubuntu's killer features
[10:12] <[tjb] > When I first put the Ubuntu CD in, it auto-ran (bringing up the package manager).  Now it won't.  How do I make it 'auto-run' again?
[10:12] <cwillu> Is there any way to find an older version of a ubuntu repository?  I'm suspicious that the latest update broke the ati 9250 driver
[10:12] <AstralJava> [tjb] : Okay. Well, I don't know about that problem, but if the manufacturer doesn't care about linux, and doesn't publish the specs for that modem, then it's really up to the community to reverse-engineer the piece of hardware to see how it works. There are too many of such, to cover them all.
[10:12] <hype> (and opera integrates a bittorent clients too, but i find transmission quite nice and light)
[10:13] <Helplesswireless> expertweb: you'll want to set it up with ndiswrapper i believe
[10:13] <Madpilot> cwillu, have you checked the bug reports or filed one yourself?
[10:13] <peace-keeper> well to be honest with ubuntu you NEED much more help than with windows :D but still the channel is great
[10:13] <x_O> Anyone think they can take on this error output? lol http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22219
[10:13] <gary4gar> till now utorrent and azureus are the best clients!
[10:13] <AstralJava> [tjb] : Synaptic is the graphical package manager, you can find it in System | Administration menu.
[10:13] <[tjb] > AstralJava: That has been done with this modem.  My complaint is that Ubuntu can't do it by default.
[10:13] <[tjb] > AstralJava: So many people have asked about this on the Ubuntu forums.  I'm following the HOW-TO that someone there made, but I need more packages.  =/
[10:14] <x_O> gary4gar: I've gotten utorrent to work VERY well under WINE .. but that was a few installs ago.
[10:14] <x_O> think i mite try it again righte now
[10:14] <sysdoc> peace-keeper, it is truely a steeper learning curve, but worth the climb!
[10:14] <sysdoc> peace-keeper,  see pm
[10:14] <cwillu> Madpilot, found a reference to an old bug in the 2.4 kernels, which doesn't seem likely;  I'd really like to find a previous version to downgrade to to check that it's actually the problem I think it is
[10:14] <gary4gar> ya i to did it but switch to azureus as wine is highly unrelible
[10:14] <AstralJava> [tjb] : Okay, well if there's a how-to, I have nothing more on the issue. :)
[10:15] <Madpilot> cwillu, downgrading can be hard, because of dependencies & such - but the old 5.10 repos are still up
[10:15] <expertweb> why ubunto  put eth1 a wirelee card an not wan01
[10:15] <gary4gar> !Synaptic
[10:15] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[10:15] <[tjb] > AstralJava: When I try to install the required package, it fails, telling me that I need 'hotplug' and 'pppoe'.
[10:15] <cwillu> Madpilot, no, I meant the xorg libs from like a month ago;  I've been running dapper (including a stint in xgl and aiglx) since the beta's with no issues
[10:16] <AstralJava> [tjb] : And have you tried installing those first?
[10:16] <Madpilot> cwillu, hmm, I don't actually know if those would still be around... not sure who to ask, either. You might want to ask in #ubuntu-devel
[10:16] <cwillu> Madpilot, I just started getting 'random' hangs a couple days ago, and xorg.0.log is showing suspicious stuff
[10:16] <cwillu> Madpilot, okay, thanks
[10:16] <cwillu> I'll give that a shot
[10:17] <[tjb] > AstralJava: I don't know how.  I can't even connect on there.
[10:17] <Madpilot> cwillu, file a bug too, add your xorg log files to the report
[10:17] <cwillu> yep
[10:18] <expertweb> 	Helplesswireless		expertweb
[10:18] <x_O> cwillu: Would ya take a quick look? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22219
[10:19] <x_O> ... think its an install script error. Think I foudn a fix too but i dont know how to use it
[10:19] <gary4gar> can someone please tell me how i can run a Prolink Pixelview PV-BT878P
[10:19] <expertweb> 	Helplesswireless	
[10:19] <AstralJava> [tjb] : sudo apt-get install hotplug pppoe
[10:19] <cwillu> x_O, looking
[10:19] <[tjb] > AstralJava: DOesn't work.
[10:20] <kishore> hype, i hav done that . ..
[10:20] <kishore> hype, now wot
[10:20] <x_O> cwillu: thanks ... hope you know what it is lol
[10:20] <kishore> hype, i had opend it in Applications->internet->transmission but whn i tried to open it .. no respons:(
[10:20] <mempf> what is a good channel for edgy eft stuff?
[10:20] <hype> ah
[10:20] <kishore> hello
[10:20] <hype> kishore, youre on dapper, right?
[10:20] <cwillu> x_O, what do you get if you sudo dpkg-reconfigure mldonkey-server ?
[10:20] <kishore> hype,ya
[10:20] <Apophis> if i have only ubuntu do i need to install grub to MBR?
[10:20] <[tjb] > AstralJava: 'Package hotplug is not available ... However the following packages replace it: udeb module-init-tools'
[10:20] <x_O> kishore: I had problems with Transmission before. It plain refused to download a torrent... by the time I tried opening it again .. it refused.
[10:21] <xukun> can anybody recomend me a good Content Management System like e107.org
[10:21] <x_O> cwillu: Will try that now.
[10:21] <cwillu> brb, need more food
[10:21] <kishore> x_O, its same problem here i think its not reacting any
[10:21] <hype> kishore,  sudo rm /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.5
[10:21] <hype> then http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=59450
[10:21] <hype> oops
[10:21] <hype> nope
[10:21] <hype> forget 2nd one
[10:21] <AstralJava> [tjb] : Have you tried install what it suggests?
[10:21] <hype>  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.5
[10:22] <[tjb] > AstralJava: Which suggestion?
[10:22] <mkquist> !register nickname
[10:22] <x_O> cwillu: /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: mldonkey-server is broken or not fully installed
[10:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about register nickname - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:22] <x_O> that's all it told me.
[10:22] <cwillu> heh

[10:22] <x_O> cwillu: Terminal pretty helpful with that one ... heh
[10:23] <maina> pliz help me pple
[10:23] <duderock> misieq, which XWM?
[10:23] <misieq> KDE

[10:23] <redondo81> Hi boys, I have a problem mounting a partition fat32 on my linux, I mounted it, but I cannot write on it,do you know why?
[10:24] <AstralJava> [tjb] : The packages apt says replace package hotplug?
[10:24] <ye> is there any graphical interface setting for smbd?
[10:24] <[tjb] > AstralJava: Actually, it tells me that whenever I try to install something that's already installed.
[10:24] <[tjb] > AstralJava: It started telling me that earlier when I tried to install hotplug and pppoe.  How can I stop it telling me that?
[10:24] <duderock> i think it's called ksnapshot
[10:24] <duderock> (screen capture for KDE)
[10:25] <misieq> ksnapshot is for snapshots and i want video
[10:25] <medfly> what does it mean that a package is uninstallable? (except for that i cant install it)
[10:25] <cwillu> x_O, can you paste me the output of mlnetinstall --help ?
[10:25] <maina> am having a problem with ma evolution which reads 'error while fetching mail, cannot append message to mbox, file too large
[10:25] <misieq> that's why i guess there would be X app for that...
[10:25] <maina> pliz help me pple
[10:25] <medfly> maina, the file is too large
[10:26] <cwillu> medfly:  the package is uninstallable :p
[10:26] <ye> mania.. obviously your inbox is too large?
[10:26] <AstralJava> [tjb] : If you're trying to install something you already have installed, it will always tell you that. :) The problem seems to be then that a package you're trying to install depends on something that's obsolete. Tell me again which package were you trying in the first place? And where is the how-to?
[10:26] <roofy> how can i reconfigure X via the commandline
[10:26] <roofy> like if i changed the videocard
[10:26] <medfly> roofy, X -configure
[10:26] <x_O> cwillu: It's still .. running the last operation.
[10:26] <duderock> xvidcap will do video
[10:26] <x_O> I can do it i a new terminal?
[10:26] <x_O> ... its updating certificates.
[10:26] <ye> is there any GUI program for SAMBA server?
[10:26] <medfly> cwillu, yeah but.. its been like that for a while, maybe theres another package thats supposed to work? :P
[10:26] <duderock> SWAT for SAMBA
[10:26] <maina> medfly and ye, tell me how i can solve it
[10:26] <duderock> or WEBMIN
[10:27] <ardchoille> !webmin
[10:27] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[10:27] <medfly> maina, make "the file" smaller by removing parts of it
[10:27] <ye> thaks duderock
[10:27] <duderock> I would never install a server without webmin.....
[10:27] <maina> its actually the postmaster a/c
[10:27] <duderock> no probs
[10:27] <roofy> medfly: is there something maybe a little better, like what the actual install uses?
[10:28] <medfly> roofy, what do you mean?
[10:28] <ardchoille> duderock: I install servers all the time without webmin, it's actually quite easy once you know how to do things.
[10:28] <medfly> roofy, oh, sorry
[10:28] <maina> medfly, i have over 20,000 mails in that postmaster a/c
[10:28] <medfly> roofy, that just makes a new X config and puts it in ur root homedir
[10:28] <medfly> maina, that explains everything :)
[10:28] <duderock> I know it is, but why wouldn't you recommend webmin, what's wrong with it?
[10:28] <kishore> hype,sudo rm /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.5 --no such file or directory
[10:28] <cwillu> is there a way to tell apt-get to install the latest version available from the repositories (which I intend to change to the install cd rather than the online ones), even if the version in the repo is older than the currently installed version (including downgrading dependencies)?
[10:29] <ardchoille> duderock: I don't know, but I know that we shouldn't be recomminding things that the channel ops say not to
[10:29] <x_O> cwillu: ....... the mlnetinstall --help just said command not fuond
[10:29] <x_O> found*
[10:29] <maina> medfly, the problem is am not able to delete even from the webmail, its just not displaying the inbox
[10:29] <hype> kishore, install libcrypto++5.2c2a via synaptik

[10:30] <duderock> where do I find out what the channel ops are sensoring from the official support channel for an open source OS?
[10:31] <sky123> pestilence: thnx
[10:31] <cwillu> duderock, it's more a matter of the unlikelyness of finding anyone familiar here with it
[10:31] <medfly> duderock, i dont see any ops
[10:31] <DoubleT> Hi All
[10:31] <duderock> Yeah, but I want to know what if anything I'm not allowed to talk about here.
[10:31] <maina> medfly, when i hit send and receive, it fails at message 1
[10:32] <DoubleT> I'm new to Linux / Ubuntu
[10:32] <cwillu> duderock, webmin isn't officially supported;  why are you expecting support for it in an official irc channel?  :)
[10:32] <x_O> cwillu: that command you told me to use didnt work
[10:32] <medfly> maina, ok i dunno anything about evolution or any other email programs and i enver got more than 10 emails
[10:32] <DoubleT> Yesterday, I gave Ubuntu a try on my older notebook
[10:32] <cwillu> duderock, but nobody's gonna stop anyone for trying
[10:32] <Flannel> duderock: this is a support channel, so any general chatter should be taken to #ubuntu-offtopic, Also, things that aren't good (automatix, etc), we ask you don't recommend, because it makes our lives harder by breaking systems
[10:32] <ardchoille> duderock: AFAIK, webmin, automatix and easyubuntu are all not recommended here.
[10:32] <maina> alright medfly, thanx
[10:32] <DoubleT> all works great, except for the sound
[10:33] <SolanisDracon> hello there, i'm having an issue with scroll lock functions on my installation of dapper.  neither the scroll lock key nor the mouse wheel key function while booted to os, even though the scroll lock key functions during bootup

[10:37] <medfly> x_O, thanks, ill check it now
[10:38] <SolanisDracon> gives me at the top about gnu nano and such
[10:38] <x_O> medfly: Let me know if it works.
[10:38] <xet7> iyank4: install 6.06.1, it's newer :)
[10:38] <SolanisDracon> do i write out or what
[10:38] <medfly> SolanisDracon, oh, thats a text editor, did it open a file? :)

[10:39] <iyank4> i has download main repository from nearest mirror, and setup it on my box, what i must do to upgrade to v 6.06..1
[10:39] <x_O> DJAdmiral: Still no luck with this, lol. But I discovered that the MLDonkey junk is preventing me from installing some other things - like totem-xine ... argh.
[10:40] <medfly> SolanisDracon, alright
[10:40] <Flannel> looks like he recommended webmin, then ardochille !webmin'd which ubotu mentions is no longer supported, please avoid using it, then he asked what was wrong with it, then ardc... said "I dont know but we shouldnt be recommending things that chan ops say not to" (via ubotu) then you got here in time for his censor comment

[10:40] <SolanisDracon> umm, i guess i can't private message you, med
[10:40] <mtholdenss> hey guys im trying to dual boot and i thought about this way so i go to manually edit partition table and thers 20 gig of unallocated space so i click on that then hit forward then forward and says no root file system

[10:40] <medfly> mtholdenss, theres a "Mount" thing, use /
[10:41] <xet7> iyank4: if your Ubuntu system works ok already, no need to reinstall, Synaptic upgrades automatically
[10:41] <medfly> mtholdenss, just look for "mount" when changing that partition and click "/ - root thingie thingie"

[10:42] <mtholdenss> its not made, its unallocated
[10:42] <kishore> be right back...
[10:42] <sysdoc> mtholdenss, create a swap partition first 2x amount of ram then root for the rest
[10:43] <medfly> mtholdenss, so click that :)
[10:43] <mtholdenss> so i should have created the partitions and not left it unallocated
[10:43] <iyank4> i was download the main repository when dapper just released, untill now i hane not update my repository, should i download a new one?
[10:43] <medfly> mtholdenss, yep
[10:43] <Flannel> iyank4: no, you can update fine
[10:43] <x_O> DJAdmiral: Did you see this? https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/mldonkey/+bug/56837   .....................    it mentions something about a syntax they used to get it to work......
[10:44] <Madpilot> iyank4, if you've kept your Dapper install up to date with the updates that've come down, you're already fine
[10:44] <mtholdenss> i created a 5 gb fat 32 share drive in win xp, should i log bac into win xp and create that 20 gb as a fat 32 or ext 3? it seems to see my fat 32 share drive and ready to format and install on that so should i create a 20 gb fat 32 or ext3?
[10:44] <iyank4> oh, so i just have to download dapper-updates right?
[10:44] <medfly> mtholdenss, ext3 will do
[10:44] <medfly> mtholdenss, i mean, for ubuntu
[10:44] <ubuntu> i cannot boot up my Ubuntu
[10:45] <Flannel> iyank4: You don't download the repositories, but if you mean updates for dapper, then yes.
[10:45] <kishore> i have RAM of about 256mb..when i am downlaoding any thing.. ubuntu is really irritating.. (slower)
[10:45] <ubuntu> some problem with ETX3 file system
[10:45] <medfly> mtholdenss, you can create partitions on the partition manager thing
[10:45] <Madpilot> iyank4, are you getting the update notifications & running them?
[10:45] <medfly> "when i am writing something to my harddisk ubuntu is really slow"
[10:45] <mtholdenss> yeh i dont like the ubuntu partition manager, it screwed up something in the past :p i rather use partition magic on win xp
[10:45] <arno> could someone try ftp:// 83.157.196.156   with arnaud as login and aew7uhw as password please.

[10:47] <sysdoc> mtholdenss, continue with the install

[10:47] <arno> kalessin what did you see?
[10:47] <kishore> in ubuntu
[10:47] <mtholdenss> sysdoc i have to go create my 20 gb ext3 partition in win xp
[10:47] <sysdoc> mtholdenss, create a /swap partition 2x the ram, then creat a partition for the sys
[10:47] <iyank4> Madpilot: i install it as a gateway on my LAN, and it hane no X running on it. and i just setting it to my local repositoy on my other computer
[10:47] <medfly> SolanisDracon, create a new line there in the end of that section, saying Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
[10:47] <mtholdenss> kishore no u cant use partition magic in ubuntu
[10:48] <SolanisDracon> i get no such options there.  do i scroll down or what
[10:48] <sysdoc> mtholdenss, no, why do you think that?
[10:48] <medfly> SolanisDracon, ctrl+x and "y" (save it)
[10:48] <medfly> SolanisDracon, yes
[10:48] <SolanisDracon> oh.  i see now.  ok so i can just edit this file and save it and that'll be that?
[10:48] <mtholdenss> sysdoc, what u saying that to what message?
[10:48] <sysdoc> mtholdenss, xp can't create a ext3 partition, lol
[10:48] <kishore> mtholdenss, even with the help of "wine"
[10:48] <iyank4> so if i want the update i must get dapper-update, and i get v 6.06.1, its true?
[10:48] <medfly> SolanisDracon, yeah but youll have to restart x
[10:48] <mtholdenss> sysdoc yes win xp can
[10:48] <medfly> SolanisDracon, you can use tab to make it look like the rest of the lines
[10:48] <mtholdenss> win xp can use partition magic to create linux partitions
[10:49] <sysdoc> lol
[10:49] <sysdoc> oh my
[10:49] <mtholdenss> so just create ext3 partition , will linux just format that and install, and take care of swap drives ect
[10:49] <sysdoc> Nevermind let me know how that works out for ya
[10:50] <SolanisDracon> let me make sure i understand, this is for both mouse and keyboard, i add an option to the end of each indented section saying Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
[10:50] <sysdoc> mtholdenss, no it won't
[10:50] <medfly> SolanisDracon, just for mouse
[10:50] <SolanisDracon> i want it for keyboard mainly
[10:50] <arno> kalessin?
[10:50] <sysdoc> creat a swap partition 2x the sze of the ram
[10:50] <medfly> SolanisDracon, ..what?
[10:50] <kalessin> i send you the exit in private message :)
[10:50] <SolanisDracon> double tapping scroll lock switches over my kvm switch
[10:50] <mtholdenss> sysdoc so i have to create a linux swap as well, about 2gb
[10:50] <kishore> how much swap area must we allocate for 256mb ram..
[10:50] <SolanisDracon> scroll lock does not function in linux
[10:50] <SolanisDracon> on my machine
[10:50] <sysdoc> mtholdenss, pm me
[10:51] <SolanisDracon> i'm mainly worried about getting my scroll lock key working
[10:51] <x_O> Great. Now nothing will freaking install because of this broken package.
[10:51] <medfly> SolanisDracon, oh.. i never used scroll lock, i think theres some way to define it but i dunno how :) sorry
[10:51] <mtholdenss> sysdoc do i have to regist my name to pm u?
[10:51] <SolanisDracon> darn
[10:51] <x_O> ... wished someone knew what it was.
[10:51] <medfly> x_O, what what was
[10:51] <SolanisDracon> what's odd is that it works fine during bootup but at the login screen and onward it says no
[10:51] <SolanisDracon> not really SAYS no, just doesn't work
[10:51] <Shoo-Shu> for some reason totem isnt letting me play a wmv file. it is saying that i might need to install additional plugins to play some types of movies. what plugins would this be/ where can i access them from???

[10:58] <Matthai> kishore, 2 Gb was a rule of thumb
[10:58] <medfly> Matthai, are you crazy :)
[10:58] <cafuego> kishore: Probably a minimum of 512; 256MB is pushing the low limit of minimum requirements for ubuntu (Dapper).
[10:58] <Matthai> regardless of RAM
[10:58] <Matthai> well, one rule of thumb is 2x RAM
[10:59] <darweth> snoops - ext3
[10:59] <Matthai> but on my debian boxes there is default 2gb
[10:59] <cafuego> Matthai: That's a rule that goes with 2.2. and 2.4 kernels

[11:12] <M4LD1T0> ok thanks
[11:13] <M4LD1T0> thanks x_O
[11:13] <x_O> It might help you out. It's a program that detects which driver you need, and installs it for you.
[11:13] <x_O> lol, hopefully it will work.
[11:13] <irawan> I tried using gcc-3.4 during compilation, not working
[11:13] <app> Can anyone help me to boot my hard disk 2 partiton Ubuntu installation with a GRUB boot CD I made. I fail to do that. Or better, yet, can you use the Deapper Live CD to boot arbitrary hard disk partitions? OR ALTERNATIVELY, can someone fix my inability to boot my Pointsec encrypted Windows partion (1st) with a GRUB touched MBR. Currently I can not touh my Windoiws MBR, or Pijtsec fails to decrypt my Windows partition.
[11:13] <irawan> I tried using gcc-4.0 during compilation, load the module OK, but still not working
[11:14] <x_O> M4LD1T0: Most webcams refuse to work under linux .. unless it's a brand name one (ie popular so theres drivers made for it) ... obviously .. you already know that though im just .. rambling ...
[11:14] <x_O> ..since its like 5am and i need SLEEPage... lol.
[11:14] <M4LD1T0> x_O: i know the system detect is but i still can't use it.

[11:15] <app> To clear up a little: my Pointsec encrypted Windows is on my laptop IDE disk partition 1 and Dapper is in partition 2 and I currently have no means to boot Ubuntu.
[11:15] <x_O> sysdoc: ... no, that sounds nice though. think i mite lol
[11:16] <eyequeue> what files does gksudo source when run?
[11:16] <M4LD1T0> x_O:  anyway, thanks

[11:16] <Adore> Hello every body
[11:16] <Adore> i need help
[11:16] <M4LD1T0> x_O: is it possible that the webcam could be detected by the system but still doesnt work?
[11:17] <Adore> i use ubuntu
[11:17] <Adore> and i want to open any movie
[11:17] <Adore> what can i do?
[11:17] <x_O> M4LD1T0: As far as I know, the system is capable of detecting a lot of stuff, but .... you have to have the actual correct drive to make it work.
[11:18] <illusia-ru> Adore install mlayer and open any movie ;)
[11:18] <x_O> I'm going to tackle the Wacom Tablet on Ubuntu ... tommorow lol. Maybe I can get it working this time.

[11:19] <x_O> Installing MPLAYER now though, to see if it works in that.
[11:19] <M4LD1T0> x_O: i know most of us are working hard to support its existence
[11:19] <Adore> aha
[11:19] <atsugnam> yeah, wmv is difficult, I think there are tools to convert
[11:20] <Adore> hehheehehehe
[11:20] <Zambezi> The command to mount ext3-harddrive? I had it "saved", i had to turn off the computer so I lost all the documents.
[11:20] <atsugnam> Zambezi, ??
[11:20] <x_O> atsugnam:  Yea, I absolutely hate WMV or any widows format ... but friend send me a home video lol and wants me to see it.
[11:20] <cafuego> x_O: http://easyubuntu.cafuego.net/
[11:20] <x_O> LOL atsugnam ..... it works now.
[11:21] <x_O> In Mplayer. I'm happy about that.

[11:21] <cafuego> x_O: Did you file a bugreport?
[11:21] <x_O> Think it also messed up my xorg.conf...
[11:21] <atsugnam> Zambezi, try mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb /mount/point
[11:22] <x_O> cafuego: no ... just installed things manually.
[11:22] <Adore> ok
[11:22] <x_O> I only got Easy Ubuntu .. cuz I know it's reliable enough for at least installing codecs.
[11:22] <atsugnam> Adore, without the mailto etc... just from sudo on.

[11:25] <KenSentMe> I just tried to install vmware-player on Dapper Drake, but i get this error. Does anyone know how to solve it? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22033. It seems like the module isn't loaded, because vmware-player-kernel-modules-2.6.15-23 is installed and i have 2.6.15-26-686. Should i install linux-image-2.6.15.-23-386 to make this work, and will this affect my system on some other way. Or maybe there is a workaround?

[11:38] <cbx33> how do I force it to do them
[11:38] <cbx33> should I force it to dothem?
[11:39] <mtholdenss> cbx33, y update to edgy, its not stable or rleased yet, well as far as i know
[11:39] <cbx33> I'm a developer
[11:39] <KenSentMe> cbx33: i heard there are still some python issues when upgrading to edgy, but you can ask in #ubuntu+1

[11:39] <nahoj> is it possible to remove a single package without removing the deps?
[11:39] <Adore> now i can see movies
[11:39] <Adore> wow
[11:39] <Adore> Learn to be
[11:40] <Adore> I like it
[11:42] <eyequeue> nahoj, dpkg --purge foo, won't remove anything that foo depends on, those will still remain
[11:42] <lokadin> how do i create shortcut with the win key in xubuntu?
[11:42] <nahoj> eyequeue, thx
[11:43] <nahoj> eyequeue, maybe its safe to remove these packages anyway? kcontrol kdebase-bin kdelibs4c2a kicker libk3b2 libkonq4
[11:43] <nahoj> those are the deps
[11:43] <nahoj> not using kde anyway..
[11:44] <eyequeue> nahoj, i'm not a kde guy, but some of those are important if you are
[11:44] <mtholdenss> ok i got dual boot to work with partition magic but the gnu grub, i was wondering if its posible for it to have a better look, yes i know im being picky lol

[11:47] <arno> what's wrong again? mtholdeness
[11:47] <KenSentMe> I just tried to install vmware-player on Dapper Drake, but i get this error. Does anyone know how to solve it? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22033. It seems like the module isn't loaded, because vmware-player-kernel-modules-2.6.15-23 is installed and i have 2.6.15-26-686. Should i install linux-image-2.6.15.-23-386 to make this work, and will this affect my system on some other way. Or maybe there is a workaround?

[12:00] <Lynoure> arno: it will take a bit, it timeouted
[12:01] <iceman> I'll give this release a huge thumbs up for install speed, great improvement
[12:01] <brendonjt> mkquist: your right amarok  rocks
[12:01] <arno> in what directory were you in Lynoure?
[12:01] <Lynoure> arno: 421 No Transfer Timeout (120 seconds): closing control connection
[12:01] <arno> it doesn't work anymore?

[12:04] <arno> yep
[12:05] <brendonjt> iceman:  hehe  i know  but it is less than windows,  it does a update  then it has to updates the updates lol
[12:05] <arno> arnaud aew7uhw
[12:05] <Lynoure> arno: Still the same: The connection to the server was reset
[12:06] <iceman> brendonjt yea, so true. next i got to find a complete sources list, and fine tune the system ....

[12:08] <iceman> well back here tomarrow for the fine tuning ...
[12:09] <yacek19> how can I skip some packages during update?
[12:09] <brendonjt> yacek19:  when  you run the update manager  just untick the ones you don't want
[12:10] <mtholdenss> is there any gui or possible to delete a wirless network on network manager?
[12:10] <yacek19> and maybe more automaticated way?? ;)

[12:13] <arno> Lynoure that's strange
[12:13] <arno> Lynoure do you manage uploading?
[12:13] <eyequeue> tjb, actually, i know nothing of that
[12:14] <tjb> eyequeue: No idea.  Sorry.  ;(

[12:14] <tjb> Everything is so hard.  =(
[12:15] <tjb> I really wanna switch to Ubuntu, but it's all too difficult.
[12:15] <arno> do you think it would work from IE?
[12:15] <mtholdenss> i want to be able to modify the network i just set up in network manager
[12:15] <Lynoure> arno: it's the kbdvorak.gif
[12:15] <arno> lynoure
[12:15] <arno> yep I saw it
[12:15] <mtholdenss> tjb just dual boot
[12:16] <arno> could someone try with IE... I think it's a passiv problem
[12:16] <tjb> Setting up the system and learning the command line is easy, but when it comes to setting up this modem, it seems so hard.
[12:16] <Lynoure> arno: No idea, prolly not as it does not work with mozilla
[12:16] <tjb> mtholdenss: Yeah, I do that.  I'd like to be able to connect with Ubuntu though.
[12:16] <mtholdenss> ull be switched over and u can use win xp and ubuntu
[12:16] <mtholdenss> mmm, u got dial up or dsl?
[12:16] <tjb> adsl
[12:17] <mtholdenss> u have a router?
[12:17] <tjb> Nope.
[12:17] <tjb> Just the USB modem.
[12:17] <mtholdenss> so just a modem?
[12:17] <nalpha> guys there is animation software for ubuntu like macromedia flash in windows? than
[12:17] <tjb> ya
[12:18] <mtholdenss> ok well does the modem have a network output at the back of it?
[12:18] <jerb> i think adobe owns flash now...
[12:18] <mtholdenss> yes they do
[12:18] <nalpha> so?
[12:18] <nalpha> what's adobe ownds flash now?
[12:18] <mtholdenss> he was just stating that, dont jump all over him about it
[12:18] <jerb> they are working on flash 9 for linux i think... early nest year release maybe
[12:18] <tjb> mtholdenss: A network output?
[12:19] <jerb> or wait for gnash
[12:19] <nalpha> gnash?
[12:19] <pschulz01> Greetings.. any reason why I would be getting '404 not found' on the libtheora0 package? (using powerpc)
[12:19] <pschulz01> Using au.archive.ubuntu.com
[12:20] <pschulz01> seems to be in dapper-backports/main
[12:20] <tjb> My third and final problem is 'clicking' sounds from the laptop: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=248491
[12:20] <mtholdenss> tjb like this http://www.inkandstuff.co.uk/largeimages/Cat5Blue.jpg to put in the back of your modem does it have that input?
[12:20] <pschulz01> (or that's where it's trying to look.)
[12:21] <tjb> mtholdenss: Oh, no.  The only leads coming out of the modem are the one that connects to the PC via USB and the one that connects to the phoneline.
[12:21] <mneptok> arrr!
[12:22] <severus> hi
[12:22] <mtholdenss> oh well, tjb then im not sure how u can get the net for your ubuntu pc, try looking for drivers ect
[12:23] <tjb> mtholdenss: I'm too new to understand it all.  I've tried this but it won't work:  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1449007#post1449007
[12:23] <mneptok> tjb: what chipset on your NIC?
[12:23] <tjb> mneptok: Is the NIC relevant here (I don't know)?  I use only a USB modem (no router or anything).
[12:24] <mtholdenss> i dunno tjb
[12:24] <mneptok> tjb: oh, ew :/
[12:24] <mneptok> tjb: USB networking is nasty. as you have discovered.
[12:24] <tjb> K.  Thanks anyway.
[12:24] <mneptok> tjb: does your ISP offer RJ-45 modems?
[12:25] <tjb> mneptok: But Windows supports it as plug-and-play.  And people are asking about this all over the Ubuntu forums.  Surely Ubuntu should make this auto-install?
[12:25] <tjb> mneptok: Not sure.
[12:25] <arno> could someone try again  ftp://83.157.196.156 for me with arnaud as login and aew7uhw as password
[12:25] <tjb> After all, this is supposed to be "Linux for humans".
[12:25] <arno> please
[12:25] <mneptok> tjb: well, you're asuming that the manufacturer has released all of the code for their drivers under an open license. not a safe assumption.
[12:26] <brucedes> Does anyone know of a version of java which works with ppc?
[12:26] <tjb> mneptok: There are .deb packages though.
[12:26] <mneptok> tjb: for what?
[12:26] <tjb> mneptok: For the modem firmware
[12:26] <tjb> (or whatever it's called)
[12:26] <hyperstream> can alsa support two sound cards? one onbard and one pci ?
[12:26] <arno> who's in?
[12:26] <hyperstream> let me refraze that
[12:26] <mneptok> tjb: do they contain proprietary code?
[12:26] <HeathenDan> me
[12:27] <hyperstream> can alsa support two sound cards? one onbard and one pci ?   or one uses oss and one uses alsa?   (So i can use xmms on one) while i use the other for teamspeak while ingame ? )
[12:27] <tjb> mneptok: I think so.  Not sure though.
[12:27] <arno> with what software?
[12:27] <HeathenDan> opera browser
[12:27] <arno> HeathenDan what can you see?
[12:27] <mneptok> tjb: then there's no way we would ever distribute that as party of the base install or put in anywhere other than Universe.
[12:27] <arno> HeathenDan can you up and download?
[12:27] <mneptok> s/party/part/
[12:28] <Madpilot> mneptok, Multiverse is for propietary stuff, isn't it? Not Universe?
[12:28] <mneptok> tjb: and everything in Universe is "YMMV"
[12:28] <mneptok> Madpilot: yeah, could go into Multiverse as well
[12:28] <tjb> mneptok: However, before trying to set up this modem, there was a file already called 'speedtch' (name of this modem).
[12:28] <HeathenDan> i can click open the jpg images, but i don't think i can ul with opera
[12:28] <eyequeue> someone know why gksudo firestarter would fail?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1449056#post1449056
[12:28] <tjb> mneptok: I'm not sure what this 'speedtch' is all about.
[12:29] <mneptok> tjb: that doesn;t mean it wil work. i can write "wings" on my arms, but it won't help me when i jump off a building.
[12:29] <redondo81> can anyone halp me to configure /etc/fstab?I want to mount a partition and permit to my user to write on it
[12:29] <arno> HeathenDan you can't do it with opera then?
[12:29] <tjb> mneptok: It suggests that it's supported though.
[12:29] <mneptok> Linux will gladly identify hardware via a PCI probe that it has *no* idea how to use.
[12:29] <HeathenDan> do what?
[12:29] <arno> HeathenDan could you try with mozilla please?
[12:29] <tjb> mneptok: Oh.
[12:30] <arno> or someone else if you don't have it

[12:35] <zerotime> hi
[12:35] <HeathenDan> unmount it as root and use pmount to mount it
[12:35] <redondo81> pmount?
[12:36] <magical_trevsky> mcphail, yep, although wine did screw up a bit running from it, so maybe wine is still running in the background somehow? /me checks

[12:37] <mtholdenss> would firefox 2 be in the next ubuntu?

[12:37] <mtholdenss> firefox 2 is in its beta stages atm
[12:37] <zerotime> is there any other text msn other than tmsnc?
[12:37] <HeathenDan> do you need to dl anything from the ftp arno?

[12:38] <Ubunti_Ki_> This X-chat looks pretty different to the one I had in 5.10.....I run now X-chat in 6.06
[12:38] <HeathenDan> you can apt-remove it all, but it could take off other kde stuff from your system too
[12:38] <MZM> how can I know when Qt-4.1.4 will be available for dapper?
[12:38] <KenSentMe> Abst: and sudo apt-get remove?
[12:38] <mcphail> magical_trevsky: try a lazy umount (sudo umount -l device)
[12:38] <Abst> KenSentMe: I havent tried that hold on
[12:38] <snoops> mcphail well when partition ntfs partitions (sorry to use that word ntfs), I can choose the cylinder size.. basically it means, if I set the cylinder size to 8kbyte then a file is 4k in size, it'll take up 8kbyte on the hdd
[12:38] <magical_trevsky> mcphail, that worked, thanks :D
[12:39] <Abst> KenSentMe: says its not installed but it is cause programs are in my mneu
[12:39] <mtholdenss>  October 4th
[12:39] <mneptok> Abst: you can't remove it with Aptitude because the Aptitude package itself depends on KDE.
[12:39] <mtholdenss> GNOME 2.16.1 Final Release - just in time for ubuntu edgy
[12:39] <mcphail> snoops: you can set the inode density
[12:39] <bluesign> hi, i have a simple case, but i cannot solve, I have 2 PC, 1 server (ubuntu) , 1 wireless adsl gateway, but gateway does not support QoS, so I decided to install some kinda router software woth QoS to server, but the question is can i configure winpc to use gateway(server) when server available and to use modem when server is down
[12:39] <Abst> wneptok: The forums suggested I did that.
[12:39] <snoops> mcphail the advantage of it being, if the hdd has large amounts of large files on it, then it's less work for the drive to read it, since reading each cylinder is all groovy
[12:39] <HeathenDan> Abst, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[12:39] <redondo81> when I umount the partition it tells me that it cannot do it because it's busy
[12:39] <flo> is it possible to change the netspeed-applet's icon?
[12:39] <snoops> mcphail oh, it's called inode density here? Do I set that before I partition the drive or after?
[12:39] <Abst> HeathenDan: I installed it from a tutorial on that site, so thanks
[12:39] <Abst> Ill try it
[12:40] <mneptok> Abst: sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[12:40] <Ubunti_Ki_> I recommend to everyone who runs Grub that you take write away from /boot/grub/menu.lst that way the system cannot update the file after updates
[12:40] <mcphail> snoops: after you partition, as an argument to mke2fs -j
[12:40] <HeathenDan> well, that's a bit of a downer. if it's busy and you can't do anything to 'unbusy' it, it's probably best to logout-login again
[12:40] <mneptok> Ubunti_Ki_: uhhhh .... why?
[12:40] <redondo81> ok
[12:40] <Abst> mneptok: That doesn't work
[12:41] <mcphail> snoops: read the man page. Also note that you can use other filesystems which allocate inodes dynamically
[12:41] <Abst> HeathenDan: Thanks. Now I have to install some stuff like apache but it worked

It's not a question about why I have ~300 from a drive which says 320, but rather why ext3 has taken 4.8GiB out of 298.09 leaving me with 293.29GiB?
[01:02] <mtholdenss> y install winamp 3 alpha when u got xmms
[01:03] <snoops> is that reserved space for the journal or something?

[01:12] <blaq> Is there a way to make grub boot from a usb cd drive?
[01:12] <xopher> mtholdenss, well depends what libraries you install, but Id say no. under 100mb
[01:13] <xopher> blaq, if theres grub on the cd thats in the drive, then yes I guess its possible
[01:13] <blaq> i'm trying to install ubuntu on a laptop with a broken cd drive through an external usb cd drive, however the bios is too old to support booting from usb
[01:13] <tristan_> IS this normal if since my last update of xorg I have no more 3D accell while it was perfectly working before?
[01:13] <xopher> blaq, then I dont think so..
[01:13] <blaq> it already has a real old version of gentoo on it (with grub)
[01:14] <blaq> so instead of making grub boot up gentoo on the hard drive, can i make it boot the cd, as a way to get around my problem
[01:14] <xopher> If your bios doesnt support booting from usb.. but have you tried updating the bios?
[01:14] <blaq> heh, its a really old P3 700mhz
[01:14] <blaq> with 1 usb 1.0 port
[01:14] <xopher> 
[01:14] <blaq> i doubt any newer bios updates will support usb booting
[01:15] <pepp1> does anynone know how to create a shortcut of the whole hard disk on the desktop?
[01:15] <atm0sph> hey is there a way I can tell what version of MySQL is running on my webhosting from a shell? phpBB is asking ..
[01:15] <mcphail> blaq: pressing "c" at the grub menu will give you a command line
[01:16] <mcphail> blaq: you could then experiment to see if you could see the cdrom
[01:16] <mtholdenss> anyone here installed wine?
[01:16] <mcphail> mtholdenss: yes
[01:17] <blaq> whats the name of the kernel on the free shipit cds?

[01:19] <mcphail> mtholdenss: i _do_ use the MS powerpoint viewer to make sure my OO.org presentations will look ok when run in powerpoint

[01:54] <Abst> Pastes to pastebin
[01:55] <fooadd> pip, type "locale" to see the locale, unless you are talking about something else..
[01:55] <fijam> Jack_Sparrow: http://patrick.spacesurfer.com/ie_wine_install.html it seems to be possible
[01:55] <Asle> Hi. Just a quick question. Where can I find CD artwork for 6.06?
[01:56] <Jack_Sparrow> snoops: Thanks, I dont use it but glad it is available for those that gotta have it.
[01:56] <snoops> indeed.. being a web developer sucks sometimes :(
[01:56] <pip> fooadd, I can hardly remember another command about charset
[01:56] <mistform> I can't use XMMS
[01:56] <pip> fooadd, can you remind ?
[01:56] <fijam> snoops:  true, true
[01:57] <mistform> it says my audio isn't set up right...
[01:57] <mistform> nvm
[01:57] <fooadd> pip, truly no idea, man -k charset (??)
[01:57] <joao> can some one say where do i put my own "autoexec" script?
[01:57] <fijam> mistform: most probably your audio is not set up right
[01:57] <fooadd> pip, what do you need it?
[01:57] <joao> to start my own programs?
[01:57] <fijam> mistform: what is your sound card?
[01:57] <mistform> alright, here's what happened last night:  I went to bed with XMMS playing and FF open on one of my games.  The computer was frozen when I woke up
[01:58] <mistform> so I shut down and restarted
[01:58] <mistform> it kept giving me hard drive errors after the login
[01:58] <mtholdenss> volume control buggy in panel...help
[01:58] <pip> fooadd, I want to change charset ,because I want to see normal Chinese characters in a terminal under text mode
[01:58] <mistform> so I used fschk or something like that... idk, I'm a n00b.
[01:58] <mistform> and every sector it read said it was BAD
[01:58] <angelaki> how can see the ie6? now i can see only a white page without menu and icons. ONLY WHITE
[01:59] <mistform> so I reformatted, and now I am trying to get everything back
[01:59] <snoops> mcphail yeah naut just needed to be restarted (strange that it doesn't request the permissions each time.. but oh well) thanks for the help :)
[01:59] <fijam> mistform: run fschk
[01:59] <mistform> I got my BCM43xx working asap
[01:59] <mistform> :D
[01:59] <fijam> mistform: you needn't have to
[01:59] <mistform> idfk what I ran
[01:59] <mcphail> snoops: nautilus is a rather poor piece of software
[01:59] <fooadd> pip, no experience with Chinese sorry, but you may need something called scim (sp?) ...
[01:59] <Zambezi> Anyone here configured Postfix?
[02:00] <fooadd> pip, or you mean the "iocharset=some_value" in /etc/fstab" ?
[02:00] <mcphail> Zambezi: quite some time ago...
[02:00] <snoops> care to recommend something which integrates as much with gnome (and ubuntu) as naut does mcphail?
[02:00] <mcphail> Zambezi: iirc, you can "sudo dpkg-reconfigure postfix"
[02:00] <Jack_Sparrow> mistform: asoundconf list will list available sound cards
[02:00] <pip> fooadd, let me see
[02:00] <Zambezi> mcphail, Do you remeber the guide? I'm not sure what I should write.
[02:01] <JulienH> Hello, I'm using apache2 on dapper, and I got this error "(75)Value too large for defined data type" in my log when I try to download a file >2GB
[02:01] <Zambezi> mcphail, That's the "guide" I'm talking about.
[02:01] <JulienH> How can I solve this ?
[02:01] <Jack_Sparrow> mcphail: I have no problems with Nautilus
[02:01] <pip> no ,but thank you all the same
[02:01] <pip> fooadd, no ,but thank you all the same
[02:01] <mcphail> Jack_Sparrow: there are a few problems with permissions. It does not obey any umask etc
[02:02] <fooadd> pip, you're welcome, I wish I can help you
[02:02] <mistform> Jack_Sparrow thanx, but the sound works now.  I just restarted XMMS to give you the exact error, and it started playing the music without any hassle
[02:02] <Jack_Sparrow> mcphail: A better tool ?
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> mistform: cool
[02:03] <mcphail> Jack_Sparrow: just about any filemanager you care to try.
[02:03] <mcphail> Jack_Sparrow: i do most things from the terminal
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> mcphail: Please name one or two for me to try
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> mcphail: GUI of course
[02:04] <mcphail> Jack_Sparrow: why not use konqueror, for example. Search through synaptic
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> mcphail: I didnt care for knoq
[02:04] <joao> mcphail: if i want to start some program on bootup where do i put it?
[02:05] <mcphail> joao: at bootup or when the GUI starts?
[02:05] <joao> bootup
[02:06] <joao> its a zabix server
[02:06] <illusia-ru> which is best gtk frontend for torrent?
[02:06] <Jack_Sparrow> mcphail: You feel Konqueror  (KDE app) running under Gnome is better than Nautilus?
[02:06] <Subhuman> illusia-ru, prob bittornado
[02:06] <mcphail> Jack_Sparrow: anything is better than nautilus
[02:06] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[02:06] <Subhuman> illusia-ru, try utorrent in wine which is what i do
[02:06] <mcphail> joao: the simplest way is via a cronjob
[02:06] <illusia-ru> Subhuman, thx.I don`t use wine
[02:07] <illusia-ru> ;)
[02:07] <joao> i have it on exit of dhcpclient
[02:07] <mcphail> joao: or you can set up an initscript
[02:07] <Jack_Sparrow> illusia-ru: Does gnutella qualify
[02:08] <illusia-ru> Jack_Sparrow,  thx i try it ;)
[02:09] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[02:09] <illusia-ru> maybe some more software?
[02:09] <illusia-ru> who is next?
[02:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Ktorrent
[02:10] <miko> how do i update my ubuntu
[02:11] <mcphail> miko: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> miko: from an older version ?
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> miko: like hoary?
[02:11] <illusia-ru> Jack_Sparrow,  ktorrent is QT and i use it under FreeBSD/KDE ;)
[02:11] <illusia-ru> Jack_Sparrow,  Gnutella is not torrent app?
[02:11] <Zephyr> hallo ubuntu users, im a what i think you would refere to as a newbie, i want to use ubuntu as a normal desktop os like windows, but i want a LAMP configuration and i would like all installation and running linux to be GUI. what shall i use
[02:12] <spuddogg> zephyr, as far as i know, there will always be some command-line
[02:12] <mistform> yes
[02:13] <Zephyr> yes but i want install and the system to be gui, ofcourse there is command-line underneath
[02:13] <mistform> Zephyr: I use the GUI more often than not, but I am still required to use the command line in certain situations
[02:13] <mistform> ok
[02:13] <spuddogg> zephyr:  if you want "noob-friendly" linux, stick with ubuntu
[02:13] <mcphail> Zephyr: if you want to use sever packages, get used to the command line
[02:13] <mistform> they find dapper drake
[02:13] <mistform> Zephyr: Ubuntu Dapper Drake
[02:13] <illusia-ru> Zephyr, for a slow pc use xubuntu ;)
[02:13] <Zephyr> i cant get a lamp configuration in a GUI enviorement?
[02:13] <mcphail> Zephyr: you cannot safely configure a LAMP setup without getting your hands dirty
[02:14] <spuddogg> Ubuntu Dapper Drake kicks ass...That's what I'm running nowadays
[02:14] <miko> ty mcphail
[02:14] <spuddogg> anyone here running ubuntu on a laptop
[02:14] <spuddogg> ?
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[02:14] <KenSentMe> Hi there. I use vmware-player on Ubuntu Dapper Drake and can't get my cd rom running. I used this wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMWarePlayerAndWindowsHOWTO , But when i try running the iso or the hardware cd rom it says 'Operating System not found'. Any ideas?
[02:14] <mcphail> Zephyr: you can install all of the packages from synaptic, but you need to tweak the configuration files
[02:14] <snoops> hmm I'm after a folder merging tool.. eg move the contents from one to another.. if there are two files with the same names, it adds something onto the file it's moving, so it can move the whole thing.. anyone know of something like that?
[02:15] <Zephyr> but will i be able to handle command line as a newb to linux system? and i have to see php results i need gui interface that seems like windows i need browser and so on.
[02:15] <spuddogg> Jack_Sparrow:  do you ever have heat issues on that laptop?
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> spuddogg: Yes under XP but under Ubuntu..no
[02:15] <mcphail> Zephyr: you cannot safely configure LAMP on a _windows_ system without editing config files as well
[02:16] <spuddogg> Zephyr, anything you need to know, you can google or ask someone here
[02:16] <spuddogg> Jack_Sparrow, any random lockups?
[02:16] <fooadd> Zephyr, you need gui for what? for apache/php it's just a matter of editing conf files, for mysql use phpmyadmin, and add to that firefox and you're done ;)
[02:16] <Jack_Sparrow> spuddogg: Works like a charm on 2 Dells and an HP
[02:16] <Zephyr> okay. on the windows platform i used wamp it is configured easily click and install and it works fine
[02:16] <mcphail> Zephyr: i said _safely_
[02:17] <spuddogg> Jack_Sparrow, ok, thanks man.  this has been working great for a few days now, but this morning it has locked up twice :/
[02:17] <miko> OK now i have done the upgrade
[02:17] <Jack_Sparrow> spuddogg: There should be some temp monitoring tools available
[02:18] <miko> Do i automatically get the necessary javascript for that?
[02:18] <Zephyr> mcphail> you meen i get hacked? im just playing with linux to get "geek" knowledge, to get into the opensource world. I thought hackers where primary linux users hacking windows. are my point of view to old?'
[02:18] <miko> I see this message while on YouTube
[02:18] <miko> Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Click here to get the latest flash player.
[02:18] <mcphail> Zephyr: php is a crackers playground
[02:19] <snoops> Zephyr he means security apache, php and mysql security
[02:19] <angelaki> who know how i can add missing dll in wine??
[02:19] <Zephyr> to awoid php scripting exploiting? what am i securing against?
[02:19] <mcphail> Zephyr: when you install apache, check out /var/log/apache2/access.log to see how often people try to hack you
[02:20] <Zephyr> ok
[02:20] <mikey_> Hey
[02:20] <mcphail> Zephyr: honestly, if you don't know about the vulnerablilities in php scripting, read about them before exposing a website to the internet
[02:21] <detectiveinspekt> what happens to the files if you use rm -R all and then quickly exit it?
[02:22] <detectiveinspekt> i accedently did that
[02:22] <Zephyr> i dont know php scripting verry well. im trying to get into the scripting language. and trying to learn the opensource world, then linux as well.
[02:22] <fooadd> Zephyr, then use Python ;)
[02:22] <mcphail> Zephyr: when you install apache, edit the config file so it only "listen"s to your own computer
[02:22] <Zephyr> im developing locally untill my scripts are good and safe before uploading it to the internet
[02:22] <_MoNkAbAnG_> hey guys
[02:22] <mcphail> Zephyr: then you can experiment to your heart's content
[02:23] <Zephyr> what do you mean mcphail?
[02:23] <snoops> Zephyr you could have followed a guide and got it all up and running by now you know :) editing a couple of files is very simple, especially when a guide is about setting up for local use only
[02:23] <mikey_> Hm. I can't run X because I don't have anything in /dev/input (or even the folder). I've tried running MAKEDEV, but the input folder disappears after a reboot.
[02:24] <angelaki> who know how i can add missing dll in wine??
[02:24] <angelaki> who know how i can add missing dll in wine??
[02:24] <mikey_> I've installed breezy's kernel and udev into dapper, that seems to be the problem :/
[02:24] <mcphail> Zephyr: apache has a set of config files located under /etc/apache2/. Read and edit them to suit your setup
[02:27] <steve__> hello - i am running ubuntu ppc (warty) on an imac 333mhz. Will ekiga work with this or am i stuck with gnome meeting ?  if it does can it be installed using the package manager or do I have to download the binaries and Where can I get help about installing applications in ubuntu from binaries?
[02:28] <mistform> not many people are active here
[02:28] <mistform> you could try ##Linux
[02:29] <mikey_> Hm. Is it udev's job to put the input devices in /dev/?

[02:49] <davvs> is there any simple cdrecord programs which can burn iso-files?
[02:49] <Jack_Sparrow> bonZiii: You are not going to be able to have raid Windows and raid linux
[02:49] <Rookie-> better to get another puter instead of dualboot ...

[04:25] <rene_> hi
[04:25] <Regal> here are my specs
[04:25] <jman8888> Regal, Giw much space how much ram ect..
[04:25] <Exclamation> hi
[04:26] <giancarlo> seems that that link  does not work, it does not load
[04:26] <Regal> 184mb ram 4gb hard drive amd k6 proccersor
[04:26] <rene_> when running quotatool: "Error while detecting kernel quota version: No such process". How do I fix this?
[04:26] <jman8888> Regal, You should be ok.
[04:26] <mnp> the windows partitions mount fine on the OS X desktop, but the linux ones don't show up. does anyone know how to make them come up?
[04:26] <petemc> hi, im trying to use a secondary s3 pci card along with with my onboard i810 card, my config seems to be ok, both cards mentioned in log, but the secondary screen doesnt get activated, i see the s3 module being unloaded towards the end of the log
[04:26] <Regal> ubuntu?
[04:26] <jman8888> Regal, But you might need more space. I dont know how fast the processor is.
[04:26] <Regal> or some other flavor?
[04:27] <Regal> its like 512mhtz
[04:27] <jman8888> Regal, You should be good (Ubuntu needs 128mb ram you have more than enough)
[04:27] <Regal> what about space?
[04:27] <giancarlo> ok opened now
[04:27] <jman8888> Regal, But if its slow choose xubuntu
[04:27] <Laibsch> My apache2 on Ubuntu does not execute PHP files.  Google is of no help.  php4.conf and php4.load are in mods-enabled.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=6456 suggests this is a bug in ubuntu but I find neither a veritable solution nor a bug report in launchpad.
[04:28] <jman8888> Regal, Thats your only problem. Do you have another pc? If you do take a hd out of that.
[04:28] <Regal> xubunt is better for older machines?
[04:28] <jman8888> Regal, Yeah
[04:28] <jman8888> Regal, I have another pc running it with 92mb ram. And it goes fast
[04:28] <Regal> can i run eveyrthing that i can on ubuntu on xubuntu?
[04:29] <infidel> how do i copy a directory to a different location?
[04:29] <monteiro> Regal: yes
[04:29] <jman8888> Regal, Pretty much. But some stuff may have to go thru Terminal. But generally thats no problem
[04:29] <Regal> and does xubuntu have a pretty graphical interface?
[04:29] <jman8888> Regal, I had problems with firefox.. (I have to use terminal)
[04:29] <Tinned_Tuna> hi

[04:34] <Exclamation> i cant get broadcom wireless working. ndiswrapper wont load. http://pastebin.isawsome.net/pastebin.php?show=46
[04:34] <Tinned_Tuna> Regal: do you know what processor you have?
[04:34] <heavypixel> thanks mnp --- im getting a console error at the boot splash that reads: Loading /csper/vmlinuz . . . . . . . . . isolinux: Disk error 28, AX = 4288, drive 82
[04:34] <Regal> and what disk image burning software would you guys recommend?
[04:34] <sophy> jrib: It's written "totem %m", what shall I write to use vlc ?
[04:34] <heavypixel> followed by an error window with the title that says I/O error
[04:34] <heavypixel> Error reading from boot CD
[04:34] <mnp> heavypixel, how far does the load go?
[04:34] <sophy> jrib: what does %m mean ?
[04:34] <opexoc> jrib: but it will make only for me... what If I want to change this globally?
[04:34] <cafuego> heavypixel: Try a different disc.
[04:34] <mnp> are you using a desktop or laptop
[04:34] <heavypixel> ive burned 3 :(
[04:34] <heavypixel> laptop
[04:34] <giancarlo> thanks
[04:34] <heavypixel> an old shitt toshiba
[04:34] <Regal>  and what disk image burning software would you guys recommend?
[04:34] <heavypixel> shitty, rather
[04:34] <cafuego> heavypixel: What speed?
[04:34] <jrib> opexoc: /etc/bash.bashrc
[04:35] <heavypixel> 8x
[04:35] <cafuego> heavypixel: What does md5sum say?
[04:35] <mnp> yeah, i had about 5 days of trouble until i found an obscure post that told me to turn off acpi in the grub menu
[04:35] <Tinned_Tuna> on Windows? no idea, I don't use windows
[04:35] <heavypixel> i dont grok md5sum
[04:35] <Tinned_Tuna> on Linux, K3B
[04:35] <jman8888> Well sense nobody knows what hal is i gues i should leave.
[04:35] <jrib> sophy: probably just 'vlc %m' but let me see if I can lookup what %m means exactly
[04:35] <Tinned_Tuna> jman8888: Hardware Abstraction Layer
[04:35] <heavypixel> mnp, is that directed to me?
[04:35] <mnp> heavypixel, i suggest you look through the forums and google your make and model
[04:35] <cafuego> heavypixel: Well, you might be writing a corrupted iso.
[04:35] <mnp> heavypixel, yes it was.
[04:35] <jman8888> Tinned_Tuna, Is it important? It failed to initialize ..
[04:36] <Tinned_Tuna> I think it is
[04:36] <Tinned_Tuna> but I'm not familiar with it's operation
[04:36] <beerfan> How can I kill the "Wine System Tray Adaptor"? It doesn't show in the process list and there's no way to close it?!?
[04:36] <heavypixel> thats unlikely, cafuego -- 3 different isos from 3 different machines, all failed, its something with the box
[04:36] <cafuego> heavypixel: Run 'md5sum <isoimage>' and compare the outout to the MD5SUMS file on the iso mirror.
[04:36] <heavypixel> mnp -- where's the grub menu?
[04:36] <Exclamation> any wireless experts around? please..
[04:36] <heavypixel> sorry, total newb
[04:36] <mnp> heavypixel, are you trying to load into the ubuntu and then install?
[04:36] <opexoc> jrib: ok but can I locate this alias everywhere I want ? Or should I do this on end of file or something?
[04:36] <heavypixel> booting from the iso
[04:37] <heavypixel> i cant get past the initial splash screen where you have the choice to install, verify, et al
[04:37] <spunk> I've a problem with gnome and esd (I think). I have an updated RC of dapper and today my problem started; I get stuck at after login. When I kill esd, the process continues. Also, my USB mouse get sluggy. Any ideas?
[04:37] <mnp> heavypixel, grub is a menu that allows you to pick which kernel, or option you want to load with
[04:38] <jrib> opexoc: it can go pretty much anywhere.  But it won't work if you put it in the middle of some if statement for example and it fails.  Putting it at the end is a safe bet
[04:38] <heavypixel> F6?
[04:38] <heavypixel> from the boot CD?
[04:39] <nm> re *
[04:39] <heavypixel> sorry mnp, im unsure how to get to the grub menu
[04:39] <nm> how do i get nfs run on ubuntu ?
[04:39] <nm> i try to apt-get install nfs-common nfs-user-server
[04:39] <beerfan> Is this "Wine System Tray Adaptor" some crap added by picasa? How do I kill it?
[04:39] <nm>  and append to /etc/exports /mnt/usb  192.168.0.0/24(rw)'
[04:39] <nm> but when mount from another computer, get permission denied
[04:39] <mnp> heavypixel, yeah so that splash screen is grub, if i remember correctly from my times installing form the live cd...
[04:39] <Mr0bvious> nm: Did you use sudo?
[04:39] <nm> slax mnt # mount -t nfs -o rw 192.168.0.223:/mnt/usb /mnt/tmp
[04:39] <nm> mount: 192.168.0.223:/mnt/usb failed, reason given by server: Permission denied
[04:40] <mnp> heavypixel, but, it doesnt matter since we arent sure whats wrong with your box
[04:40] <nm> MrObvious, yes of course
[04:40] <Mr0bvious> nm: Ok lol.
[04:40] <Tinned_Tuna> nm: nfs usually boils down to firewall problems
[04:40] <mnp> heavypixel,   like i said, search the forums for that error and your make and model. that should give you SOMETHING to go on
[04:40] <Tinned_Tuna> try it with no firewall
[04:40] <heavypixel> alright
[04:40] <heavypixel> thanks a lot for your help, guys
[04:40] <heavypixel> its appreciated
[04:40] <mnp> can anyone help me load a Linux partition HD on through OS X?
[04:40] <nm> Tinned_Tuna, i try iptables -F and blanking /etc/host.deny
[04:40] <Tinned_Tuna> also, how do I edit the Xfce menu?
[04:40] <nm> but nothing hapned
[04:40] <Tinned_Tuna> hmm
[04:41] <reptyle> you should look a the syslog of the nfs server if its available.
[04:41] <spunk> can someone help me with a gnome/esd problem?
[04:41] <opexoc> jrib: ok.. but btw. does "." command return after doing everything in file to which goes? Or maybe it is working simultaneously - the script which "." goes and the script where "." was called?
[04:41] <jrib> spunk: just ask your question
[04:42] <spunk> jrib, ok:
[04:42] <spunk> I've a problem with gnome and esd (I think). I have an updated RC of dapper and today my problem started; I get stuck at after login. When I kill esd, the process continues. Also, my USB mouse get sluggy. Any ideas?

[04:45] <reptyle> paste bin any nfsd entries from your mount requests... they'll be near the end of it...

[04:47] <Mr0bvious> While Mac OS X supports many filesystems, you might run into some that are not supported. Linux's ext2/3 and Reiser, for example, are not supported, although you can find an open source implementation of ext2 for Mac OS X.

[04:48] <mnp> Mr0bvious i think i found that
[04:48] <mnp> thanks!
[04:48] <spunk> the session "freezes", the kernel/computer does not freeze however, i can, for example, move the mouse cursor. When I drop to a terminal and kill esd, the session continues.
[04:48] <Mr0bvious> mnp: You're welcome.
[04:48] <Mr0bvious> eCokeNCod: who
[04:48] <masuran> eCokeNCod: who
[04:48] <eCokeNCod> I want the one that lets me see the active users ... and the one that lets me see all the users I have period
[04:48] <eCokeNCod> masuran thanks , that's one down.
[04:48] <eCokeNCod> the one that gives active users
[04:48] <eCokeNCod> now the other command
[04:48] <eCokeNCod> or can who do both ?
[04:48] <Mr0bvious> eCokeNCod: what?
[04:48] <Mr0bvious> :P
[04:48] <beerfan> Does anyone here use wine?
[04:49] <masuran> all the users you have?
[04:49] <eCokeNCod> who gives you the list of users that are active right?
[04:49] <masuran> eum...
[04:49] <yosyp> How do I burn a CD image with Ubuntu? It only lets me write data on it with its "CD creator" ... ?
[04:49] <eCokeNCod> MrObvious i also want a command to give a list of EVERY user on my c omputer ... active or not
[04:49] <synic> beerfan: sure do.
[04:49] <masuran> maybe cat /etc/passwd but that would be to much
[04:49] <Mr0bvious> yosyp: I like k3b myself
[04:49] <Mr0bvious> yosyp: It's on apt-get or synaptic or whatever.
[04:49] <mtholdenss> http://www.myspace.com/michaelpaynter
[04:49] <yosyp> i do too
[04:49] <yosyp> does it come installed?
[04:49] <yosyp> ok
[04:49] <Mr0bvious> eCokeNCod: who
[04:49] <eCokeNCod> why the ehck does bitchx keep screwing up my nick :@
[04:49] <beerfan> synic, do you know how to get rid of the system tray adaptor thing? I can't find a way to kill it
[04:50] <masuran> eCokeNCod: try 'cat /etc/passwd' that gives you all users on your system, but lots of other info too
[04:50] <eCokeNCod> I'm supposed to be CokeNCode
[04:50] <Bobuido> yosyp: can you right click the image and burn it?
[04:50] <eCokeNCod> thanks mansuran
[04:50] <Bobuido> I thought I'd done that before...maybe not
[04:50] <synic> beerfan: you mean after you exit the app?
[04:50] <tuxar> hello, you know about a good tutorial to Re-install Windows Without Messing Up my ubuntu ?
[04:50] <eCokeNCod> thanks for the help guys, you've been great
[04:50] <spunk> jrib, did you understand my description of "the freeze"? :-)
[04:50] <masuran> tuxar: Did you put Ubuntu on your entire HD?
[04:50] <giancarlo> i have to install the madwifi drivers and i do not know how to use the terminal  and follow properly the instruction of the following link http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo   could someone help me step by step please?
[04:50] <Mr0bvious> tuxar: Just install normally, but then reinstall the grub bootloader.
[04:50] <masuran> tuxar: Or just on one partition?
[04:51] <Mr0bvious> tuxar: Provided you already have a place to install it.
[04:51] <jrib> spunk: anything in ~/.xsession-errors
[04:51] <beerfan> synic, yeah I installed picasa and it starts it but I quit picasa and this system tray adaptor thing never goes away and doesn't even show in the "ps" list
[04:51] <mtholdenss> tuxar i dont think its possiole
[04:51] <tuxar> masuran, put it in one partition
[04:51] <synic> beerfan: ps fax | grep wine shows nothing?
[04:51] <tuxar> Mr0bvious, that the way ! but, don know how to install only the grub
[04:51] <nm> reptyle, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22248
[04:51] <nm> mountd blocked it
[04:52] <cycom> Is there a way to set up a motd that displays before a user logs in via ssh? like right before the login prompt?
[04:52] <beerfan> synic, just "grep wine" :-)
[04:52] <spunk> jrib, yes,
[04:52] <Mr0bvious> tuxar: I believe it's in the setup cd.
[04:52] <masuran> tuxar: just renstall windows and then it will overwrite your bootloader. After that, you have to install the boatloader again. But I don't know a way todo that. Anyone can help this guy? :)
[04:52] <runa> hey :) what are my options if I want to suspend my box at night (ie, the fans make a lot of noise). Suspend to ram? suspend to disk? any urls?
[04:52] <synic> beerfan: type xkill and click on it
[04:52] <masuran> Ubuntu cd rescue mode?
[04:52] <spunk> jrib, at occasions, it says something about esd stale socket...
[04:52] <gwbread> i need some help with a hd problem
[04:53] <masuran> Can anyone tell me why Firefox won't let me tick the box that tells it to always download .mp3 files instead of asking?
[04:53] <gwbread> i there any kind of boot option I can enter in to check kd for bad bloaks in order to fix them or something or ignore them
[04:53] <gwbread> I am not trying to save any data or hd space
[04:53] <valen> hum.. anyone know what would cause the gnome cups interface to not list any "ports" when attempting to install a printer?
[04:53] <jrib> cycom: you can set a Banner in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, mine points to /etc/issue.net
[04:53] <tuxar> masuran, thanks anyway
[04:53] <spunk> jrib, funny thing, If I start in "failsafe" every other time, I have no problem...
[04:54] <tuxar> Mr0bvious, the setup CD ? Dapper live CD or Alternative version ?
[04:54] <jrib> spunk: how about a different user?
[04:54] <giancarlo> i have to install the madwifi drivers and i do not know how to use the terminal  and follow properly the instruction of the following link http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo   could someone help me step by step please?
[04:54] <xored_> roundhousekick
[04:54] <cycom> jrib: thank you.
[04:54] <gwbread> can someone help me matbe
[04:54] <masuran> gwbread: fschk / will check your root partition
[04:54] <spunk> jrib: have not tried that.
[04:54] <Mr0bvious> tuxar: See I don't know. I don't have access to anything to check.
[04:54] <gwbread> wait
[04:54] <gwbread> um
[04:54] <kesha> gwbread shutdown -F ?
[04:54] <animefan> hi
[04:54] <gwbread> what wil that do?
[04:55] <tuxar> Mr0bvious, ok, no problem, I check it out, thank you !
[04:55] <Mr0bvious> tuxar: What I did when I ran Mandriva is just do a total reinstall from the net.
[04:55] <gwbread> my drive is not in the coputer now
[04:55] <kesha> gwbread force fsck on reboot
[04:55] <animefan> I need some help in understanding hotplug in ubuntu - can some1 help?
[04:55] <kesha> man shutdown
[04:55] <gwbread> cool
[04:55] <Mr0bvious> tuxar: It used RPMs that didn't mess with anyhting, and I only had a minimal configuration to fix everything. You're welcome.
[04:55] <reptyle> nm: what are the contents of /etc/exports
[04:55] <spunk> jtrib: I could try another user, but the symptoms suggest that something fails before login. When everything works, my USB mouse works fine, otherwise it is very sluggish before login.
[04:55] <gwbread> but, I do not have the drive in now because it will not boot with it in
[04:55] <reptyle> nm: on the nfs server
[04:55] <jpjacobs> !ask > animefan
[04:56] <gwbread> i need something that I can run like a boot option
[04:56] <dashriKe> any Slick Idiot fans?
[04:56] <tuxar> Mr0bvious, oh yes, i did it with slackware, but that's because the install CD gives you the option to install part by part , packages, grub, etc...well thanks a lot
[04:56] <Regal> hey guys is the xubuntu installation cd also a boot cd?
[04:56] <miloszz> Hi, the common problem: my 5.1 doesn't work properly. I hear the sound from the rear channels but when playing DVD they play the same sound as the front channels - there is no surround effect.
[04:56] <Mr0bvious> tuxar: Welcome!
[04:56] <nm> reptyle,  /mnt  192.168.0.0/24(rw)
[04:56] <pax> hello, I have questio about moduels. Need to load my tvtuner module (saa7134) with option card=26, but don't know how to do it, I add line saa7134 card=22 in my /etc/modules but in dmesg I see "saa7134[0] : subsystem: 11bd:002d, board: Pinnacle PCTV 300i DVB-T + PAL [card=50,autodetected] ", Can't load it by modprobe becouse my ubuntu loade it when starting (rmmod can't use becouse other moduels use it), any help ?
[04:56] <tuxar> Regal, yes
[04:56] <Regal> thx
[04:56] <animefan> why is there no hotpluggin handler installed in /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug? is it all handled by hal now?
[04:57] <reptyle> nm: run as root /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
[04:57] <gwbread> is there a check disk option or soeting I can load as a boot option?
[04:57] <giancarlo> quelqu'un parle t il francais?
[04:57] <masuran> gwbread: just type 'fsck /' in the terminal. What disk do you want to check?
[04:57] <spunk> jrib: If I speculate, I would say that gnome launch esd twice (at bad starts, I hear the "login theme" twice)...
[04:57] <Mr0bvious> !french
[04:57] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:57] <KwitcherBitchen> man im drunk
[04:57] <gwbread> where can I find a list of boot oftions?
[04:57] <spunk> jrib: twice, in parallell that is.
[04:58] <reptyle> nm: then see what the contents of /var/lib/nfs/xtab is.
[04:58] <spunk> jrib: Can it be some old "session save"?
[04:58] <nm> reptyle, i run it many time before, still get error : permission denied
[04:58] <gwbread> DOES NE! KNOW WHERE I CAM FIND A LIST OF AVAVLIABLE BOOT OPTIONS FOR UNBUNTU
[04:58] <Mr0bvious> gwbread: Easy on the caps dude.
[04:58] <gwbread> do you know
[04:58] <Mr0bvious> KwitcherBitchen: And that applies to Ubuntu how?
[04:59] <KwitcherBitchen> Mr0bvious, sorry
[04:59] <pax> raven: a ty byc ?
[04:59] <pax> hello, I have questio about moduels. Need to load my tvtuner module (saa7134) with option card=26, but don't know how to do it, I add line saa7134 card=22 in my /etc/modules but in dmesg I see "saa7134[0] : subsystem: 11bd:002d, board: Pinnacle PCTV 300i DVB-T + PAL [card=50,autodetected] ", Can't load it by modprobe becouse my ubuntu loade it when starting (rmmod can't use becouse other moduels use it), any help ?
[04:59] <Mr0bvious> gwbread: Just ask normally, if someone knows they'll answer.
[04:59] <nm> reptyle,  file not found :-/
[04:59] <animefan> gwbread: ubuntu specific or kernel?
[04:59] <gwbread> its ubuntu live cd
[04:59] <reptyle> nm: cd to /var/lib/nfs/ and see what files exist in that directory.
[04:59] <spunk> jrib: I could try another user, but the symptoms suggest that something fails before login. When everything works, my USB mouse works fine, otherwise it is very sluggish before login.
[05:00] <gwbread> I am not trying to save any data or anyting on the drive
[05:00] <jrib> spunk: I'm not sure of what is going on.  Try another user would at least tell you if it is some user-specific setting or if it is something system-wide
[05:00] <animefan> pax: have a look at /etc/modprobe.d/options
[05:00] <Mr0bvious> pax: No clue. It might be not unloading because it's in /etc/modules
[05:00] <Bobuido> When I set my monitor to 1280x1024 it leaves a big border bottom right - Anyone know why?
[05:00] <gwbread> I just need to have a little of the hard drive space so i dont have to run live cd
[05:00] <gwbread> it is way to slow
[05:00] <nm> reptyle,  i got sm, sm.bak, and state in /var/lib/nfs/
[05:01] <gwbread> and I cannot save ant of my changes
[05:01] <spunk> jrib: Ok, I'll snoop around. thanks for the help!
[05:01] <masuran> gwbread: You can use a usb flash disk to store stuff, but I don't think it's possible to use part of the HD drive. If you can mount the harddrive you can write to there (unless it's NTFS formatted)
[05:01] <Regal> hey guys do you think i should switch from windows to ubuntu?
[05:01] <beerfan_> synic, that didn't work but I ended up killing pretty much else and had to log out. Oh well, guess I'll just avoid using picasa or wine in the future :-)
[05:01] <pax> animefan: no. should I just add options saa7134 card=26 ??
[05:01] <animefan> gwbread, does the help given by pressing F1 help you with the options?
[05:01] <jrib> spunk: gl
[05:02] <spunk> jrib: tnx!
[05:02] <synic> beerfan_: oops :)
[05:02] <animefan> pax: yes :)
[05:02] <synic> beerfan_: yeah, it works great for some things...
[05:02] <Mr0bvious> Regal: Of course.
[05:02] <pax> animefan: thx, I'll try it now
[05:02] <animefan> pax: you dont need to reboot for this
[05:02] <gwbread> ok I know I can save data to the usb drive if i format it as a swap partition but is is way to small
[05:03] <gwbread> the only one I have is 32MB
[05:03] <Mr0bvious> Regal: Try burning a live cd and you'll see why. Imagine: free, rare security problems, no spyware scans, no virus scans, and you can still do most of the things you do in WIndows.
[05:03] <pax> animefan: so how to reaload modules ?
[05:03] <animefan> pax: simply rmmod all modules depending on your card one by one and modprobe it again
[05:03] <beerfan_> Is it normal for network manager to take over a minute to connect? I'm using wpa2 here and it takes FOREVER.
[05:03] <pax> animefan: it's a lot of modules (sound etc.)
[05:03] <gwbread> I already tried that it will not even boot
[05:03] <animefan> beerfan_: what card and driver?
[05:03] <animefan> pax: sound depends on your tv card?
[05:03] <beerfan_> a netgear card with madwifi
[05:04] <reptyle> nm: run /etc/init.d/nfs-common stop; /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server stop; /etc/init.d/nfs-common start; /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-start
[05:04] <pax> animefan: yes, alsa, tvtuner have /dev/dsp1 device
[05:04] <reptyle> nm: then run exportfs -r
[05:04] <pax> animefan: brb, and we will see if it helped
[05:04] <animefan> ok
[05:04] <jrib> I have one hard drive, partitioned with ubutnu and XP.  If I want to format XP, /dev/hda1, I should not do it while using ubuntu right?  It's safer to use the livecd?
[05:05] <axisys> how do i unload bcm43xx module
[05:05] <Mr0bvious> jrib: SHouldn't matter.
[05:05] <reptyle> nm: then see what files are in /var/lib/nfs/ again
[05:05] <axisys> it is keep complaining
[05:05] <axisys> and i dont use it
[05:05] <Mr0bvious> jrib: Are you wanting to reinstall Winblows?
[05:05] <windmill> Hi, I'm prorbably being an idiot, but I'm having trouble with a new 6.06 install, I can't make apt get work and keep getting lots of massages about not being able to download gpg files
[05:05] <jrib> Mr0bvious: no i want to convert it into some extra space for ubuntu :)
[05:05] <Mr0bvious> windmill: Did you use sudo?
[05:05] <nm> reptyle, no change, i have sm,sm.bak, and state file
[05:05] <animefan> beerfan_: I dont know madwifi, but know that timeout for several ndiswrapper cards is too short for wpa2
[05:05] <Doodluv> modprobe -r <module> is one way
[05:05] <Mr0bvious> jrib: Oh yeah use the livecd.
[05:06] <jrib> Mr0bvious: ok, thanks
[05:06] <windmill> MrObvious, I used sudo bash
[05:06] <nm> reptyle, i don't know why
[05:06] <Mr0bvious> jrib: Welcome!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:06] <animefan> anyone knows how hotplug works?
[05:06] <Mr0bvious> windmill: Paste your /etc/apt/sources.list to www.pastebin.ca
[05:06] <beerfan_> animefan, timeout? It does connect but just takes forever. No way to speed it up?
[05:06] <reptyle> nm: edit your /etc/exports to read:   /mnt  192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(rw,sync)
[05:06] <kesha> winfmill: gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv KEY
[05:06] <DeeTahPanLtah> i've got usb gamepad,is there any way to make use of it?
[05:07] <gwbread> can anyone tell me of a boot option i can use with ubuntu live cd that will run and posible fix some hard drive problems?
[05:07] <kesha> winfmill: gpg --export --armor KEY | sudo apt-key add -
[05:07] <Doodluv> axisys: sudo modprobe -r <module>
[05:07] <pax> animefan: it helps, thx a lot
[05:07] <gwbread> Dosluv was that for me?
[05:07] <reptyle> nm: then stop then start, /etc/init.d/nfs-common and /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server
[05:07] <animefan> pax: :)
[05:07] <DeeTahPanLtah> gwbread: well,just do fsck on your harddrive ;p
[05:08] <windmill> MrObvious, that;s not too easy it's on another machine and I can't install ssh to log in from this machine
[05:08] <Bobuido> Why doesn't my desktop fill the screen? Someone must know
[05:08] <Doodluv> hmm, maybe...thought it was axisys that asked...
[05:08] <reptyle> nm: then run exportfs -r
[05:08] <reptyle> nm: then try mounting again.
[05:08] <gwbread> can anyone tell me of a boot option i can use with ubuntu live cd that will run and posible fix some hard drive problems?
[05:08] <Mr0bvious> windmill: Oh.
[05:08] <animefan> beerfan_: yes, because the wpa_supplicant retries often with different strategies
[05:08] <DeeTahPanLtah> gwbread: well,just do fsck on your harddrive ;p
[05:08] <axisys> Doodluv: thnx
[05:08] <k31th> hum... i need a bit of software to recive fax's on a modem and dump then to some sort of file? any recomends ?
[05:08] <windmill> MrObvious, the error says it can't reslove gb.archive.ubuntu.com
[05:08] <cycom> If I want a program to execute on login, I can just stick it in /etc/profiel?
[05:08] <gwbread> can i do that before i boot into ubuntu?
[05:09] <amatiel> i'm having trouble preparing my partitions; I have about 10gb free but it's not letting me resize. it says fat32 partition.
[05:09] <Doodluv> axisys: np
[05:09] <cycom> /etc/profile*
[05:09] <DeeTahPanLtah> nope
[05:09] <davidw> anyone here get ubuntu running on a dell 2950?
[05:09] <Mr0bvious> windmill: Don't you have internet access, just paste it, and try the gpg commands given by kesha.
[05:09] <windmill> MrObvious, and can't download Release.gpg
[05:09] <beerfan_> animefan, perhaps it's possible to configure wpa_supplicant to use the right stategy first? lol
[05:09] <ubuntu> Hello
[05:09] <reptyle> k31th, hylafax
[05:09] <gwbread> I need something that will run before ubuntu boots

[05:09] <k31th> reptyle: thanks
[05:09] <DeeTahPanLtah> gwbread: in a normal way it doesn't start?
[05:09] <kesha> windmill: just put the key instead of KEY
[05:10] <gwbread> can anyone tell me of a boot option i can use with ubuntu live cd that will run and posible fix some hard drive problems? I need some sort of boot option
[05:10] <Doodluv> reptyle: do you use hylafax, i've been thinking about trying to implement that at work
[05:10] <windmill> kesha, do I need to substitue a number for KEY?
[05:10] <animefan> beerfan_: search first the network-manager archives at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/
[05:10] <mhemby> hey guys... ive seen some recommendations that laptops be installed using the "alternate installation" iso (instead of the live cd) -- can someone clarify what that is/where i can download it?

[05:11] <DeeTahPanLtah> mhemby: afaik,standard ubuntu can be run on laptops

[05:12] <mhemby> ive seen that recommended a few times on the forums
[05:12] <axisys> how to reconfigure X.. is it X -reconfig?
[05:12] <mhemby> <-- newb
[05:12] <reptyle> nm: you need to install portmap on the client system
[05:12] <DeeTahPanLtah> mhemby: what problems?
[05:12] <reptyle> nm: sudo apt-get install portmap
[05:12] <amatiel> i'm having trouble preparing my partitions; I have about 10gb free but it's not letting me resize. it says fat32 partition.

[05:14] <reptyle> nm: I would also probably restart /etc/init.d/nfs-common no the client too...
[05:14] <spunk> jrib: Q1: should a user be part of the 'audio' group?
[05:14] <reptyle> nm: /no/on/s
[05:14] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: look in google for gparted,download live cd,burn it and make use of it ;)
[05:14] <windmill> kesha, there is no key number, it says it can't find the Release.gpg file
[05:14] <animefan> beerfan_: sure? I'm accessing it now
[05:14] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: thanks!
[05:15] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: this tool is awesome,so far it managed to do everything that's physically possible with parition table ;d
[05:15] <axisys> DeeTahPanLtah: thnx for the xorg help
[05:15] <spunk> jrib: Q2: The bug report suggests that the problem relates to beta versions of Dapper. I run an upgraded version of Flight 7. Should I install 6.06 fresh?
[05:15] <beerfan_> animefan, well they're browsable but not searchable
[05:15] <DeeTahPanLtah> axisys: np
[05:15] <windmill> kesha, MrObvious I think I've found the problem I've got something going on which is stopping me from resolving domain names
[05:15] <spunk> jrib: The strange thing is that everything has worked fine until now. :-P
[05:15] <kesha> windmill: can you ping www.com?
[05:15] <nm> reptyle, it works, but too slowly, 2min after i run mount on nfs client
[05:15] <threat2> where?
[05:15] <cliffd> can someone tell me how to check if a package is installed from the command line?
[05:16] <nm> reptyle,  i think portmap problem on nfs client Aug 17 22:11:45 (none) kernel: RPC: failed to contact portmap (errno -5).
[05:16] <windmill> kesha, no
[05:16] <reptyle> nm: is the client ubuntu?
[05:16] <DeeTahPanLtah> cliffd: apt-get install it,if it's already installed,it won't let you ;)
[05:16] <jpjacobs> cliffd, dpkg -l|grep package
[05:16] <nm> reptyle, no sir, i use backtrac, slax clone
[05:16] <kesha> windmill check your /etc/resolv.conf
[05:16] <nm> s/backtrac/backtrack
[05:16] <cliffd> jpjacobs: thanks.
[05:16] <animefan> beerfan_: ok, ask directly and attach a log of "NetworkManager --no-daemon" while connecting your net
[05:16] <reptyle> nm: ps ax |grep portmap
[05:16] <mhemby> im getting a "Disk error 28" when trying to boot the live CD on my toshiba satellite laptop currently with xp home on it... any ideas?
[05:16] <cliffd> DeeTahPanLtah: im looking to provide proof that it is installed
[05:17] <nm> reptyle,  32264 pts/2    S+     0:00 grep portmap
[05:17] <nm> reptyle, ahh sorry,
[05:17] <threat2> thanx
[05:17] <DeeTahPanLtah> cliffd: dpkg --get-selections | grep <package name>
[05:17] <nm> portmap not running
[05:17] <reptyle> nm: then you need to figure out how to tell slac to start portmap :)
[05:17] <cliffd> DeeTahPanLtah: thanks.
[05:18] <nm> reptyle,  oh cool, thx sir, it works :-D
[05:18] <a_l_e> hello is there a way to deactivate the F1 key for the terminal?
[05:18] <reptyle> nm: np
[05:18] <nm> reptyle, hehe :-D
[05:18] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: what you mean?
[05:19] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: in the terminal if i (mis)type the F1 key, the gnome terminal help system pops up. i guess i really don't need it!
[05:19] <gwbread> can anyone tell me of a boot option i can use with ubuntu live cd that will run and posible fix some hard drive problems? I need some sort of boot option
[05:20] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: what about using konsole instead? ;)
[05:20] <davin> gwbread: try fsck /dev/whatever
[05:20] <davin> gwbread: that only works with ext2/3 though
[05:20] <gwbread> is that a boot option?
[05:20] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: yeah, or windows?
[05:20] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: you dont like this app? ;)
[05:21] <DeeTahPanLtah> imho konsole > gnome's terminal ;d
[05:21] <WineO> What's a good CD/DVD recording app for ubuntu? (audio, video and data)
[05:21] <davin> gwbread: its a terminal command
[05:21] <davin> gwbread: you mean you cannot access your harddrive?
[05:21] <spunk> I've a problem with Gnome/esd. It seems that Gnome launches esd twice during initialization. Can anyone help me with this?
[05:21] <gwbread> ok I have to run it at boot time before boot
[05:21] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: imho konsole == gnome's terminal ... and since ubuntu is gnome based, i will stuck with it.
[05:21] <gwbread> exactly
[05:21] <gwbread> it might be going bad
[05:22] <davin> gwbread: hmm you still got ubuntu on ur hdd? try booting in recovery mode
[05:22] <gwbread> I just want to use it i am not concenderd about lost data or nothing
[05:22] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: i've installed ubuntu beacause i didn't want i hadn't the time to care about all the configuration. otherwise i go back to gentoo/wmii!
[05:22] <gwbread> I am on live cd
[05:22] <gwbread> it will not boot with hd installed
[05:22] <jpjacobs> WineO,  k3b is excelent, graveman or gnomebaker are ok
[05:22] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: whats the problem to just apt-get install konsole?
[05:23] <davin> gwbread: can you access your harddrive using the live cd?
[05:23] <gwbread> just keeps showung bad blocks then repeating
[05:23] <KwitcherBitchen> gwbread, sounds like the hd is dead
[05:23] <davin> gwbread: I think your HDD is dying, physically
[05:23] <gwbread> i mean I am only booting from live cd
[05:23] <WineO> jpjacobs: thanks!  Hey is there a web-based package database for ubuntu like gentoo's?
[05:23] <spunk> Q: should normal users belong to group "audio" in 6.06?
[05:23] <gwbread> I cannot get the system to boot with the hd installed
[05:23] <davin> gwbread: I think your harddisk is dead if it shows bad blocks and it repeats
[05:24] <DeeTahPanLtah> WineO: yeah there is,packages.ubuntulinux.org
[05:24] <GomezDen> spunk: if they want to hear things use.
[05:24] <gwbread> I know is should not matter with live cd but it trys to mount  the drive
[05:24] <davin> gwbread: you cant do anything about it, you need a new one
[05:24] <lucky_wacky> anyone installed Snort successfully in 6.06?
[05:24] <spunk> gomezDen: ok. I've a problem with gnome/esd. can you help?
[05:24] <davin> gwbread: you mean mounting problems?
[05:24] <gwbread> dang
[05:24] <davin> if it keeps showing bad blocks, its dying
[05:24] <gwbread> no I know it is dead
[05:25] <davin> no way to save it unofurtonateley :/
[05:25] <GomezDen> spunk: Is the user part of audio
[05:25] <spunk> gomezden: yes
[05:25] <spunk> gomezden: It seems that Gnome launches esd twice...
[05:25] <gwbread> davin is there any what I can save my changes to a 32mb usb drive so atleast i dont have to rconfigure my system everytie I turn it on?
[05:25] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: the probelm with apt-get install konsole is that it requires installing 9 other packages for a total of 64 MB of code & co.!
[05:26] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: well,i honestly i didnt care
[05:26] <lucky_wacky> anyone knows any repository where I can get Snort directly?
[05:26] <gwbread> davin : is there any what I can save my changes to a 32mb usb drive so atleast i dont have to rconfigure my system everytie I turn it on?
[05:26] <davin> gwbread: you mean settings on the live cd?
[05:26] <jpjacobs> WineO, no need for, just use synaptic/Adept
[05:26] <gwbread> yes
[05:26] <davin> gwbread: I have no idea, I think you cant
[05:26] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: what was the gnome terminal's name?
[05:26] <spunk> GomezDen: .xsession-errors contains something about a stale esd-socket. When I try to log in, Gnome stalls. If i drop to terminal and killall esd, gnome continues.
[05:26] <davin> gwbread: Im sure you cant, because it uses the RAM as virtual space
[05:26] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: gnome-terminal
[05:27] <kesha> gwbread: you can store entire /etc dir on some flash drive
[05:27] <gwbread> I know you can but I dont know if 32 meg is enogh because you have to format the usb drive like the swap partition
[05:27] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: i'll take a look in its settings
[05:27] <davin> gwbread: you could try copying / to your stick though but I think its a bit big (cd is 700 mb)
[05:27] <GomezDen> spunk: I dont think i can help you with that. Still learning myself
[05:27] <spunk> GomezDen: Also, "ps" shows two esd processes (they are not parent/child)
[05:27] <kesha> gwbread: and when you boot restore /etc manually
[05:27] <spunk> GomezDen: Ok, thanks for your effort anyway.
[05:27] <gwbread> ya
[05:27] <gwbread> im screwed
[05:27] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: okay,got it. check "shortkeys" settings...
[05:28] <DeeTahPanLtah> ...or however it's called
[05:28] <davin> gwbread: copy /etc/ to your stick
[05:28] <gwbread> what will that svae?
[05:28] <davin> gwbread: settings
[05:28] <DeeTahPanLtah> most of ;)
[05:28] <davin> gwbread: and when you install Ubuntu on your harddisk you can copy it back
[05:29] <DeeTahPanLtah> i'd also copy all ~/.* files
[05:29] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: do you mean the keyboard shortcuts?
[05:29] <bowman> heya. what is the default for cups administration on ubuntu? I cannot add printers with my root passwordl.
[05:29] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: yeah i do ;p
[05:29] <cliffd> Im having trouble compiling expocity http://pastebin.ca/157395 it keeps saying im dont have gconf-2.0.pc installed. anyone know what package I need to install this. Ihave listed my gconf related packages and the error in the above pastebin. thanks.
[05:30] <kesha> DeeTahPanLtah: yap, you could lose your favorite wallpaper ;)
[05:30] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: no chance to deactivate the F1 there.
[05:30] <DeeTahPanLtah> kesha: rather irssi shortcuts or firefox plugins ;d
[05:30] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: check the last one ;)
[05:30] <kitche> cliffd: hmm you have gconf2 installed with gconf-2.0.pc is installed by
[05:31] <cliffd> kitche: yeah thats whats confusing me.
[05:31] <davin> gwbread: you backed up /etc ?
[05:31] <gwbread> um
[05:31] <gwbread> working on it
[05:31] <gwbread> what all will it svae im looking
[05:31] <GomezDen> bowman: Did you try using your password?
[05:31] <z3r0> hey everyone
[05:31] <reptyle> cliffd, http://packages.ubuntu.com/ is your friend try putting gconf-2.0.pc, into the "search package contents" section
[05:31] <davin> gwbread: how big is it?
[05:31] <bowman> GomezDen: root + my user password?
[05:31] <amatiel> I was just reccomended that I use gparted to resize my fat32 partition so I can dual boot ubuntu with windows... on the desktop cd and on gparted, both, I cannot resize my partition. Can anybody offer me some help?
[05:31] <cliffd> reptyle: thanks. didnt know about that.
[05:32] <z3r0> can anyone help me, well im trying to compile iptbles on my custom kernel
[05:32] <gwbread> wont work it is already to big
[05:32] <z3r0> but not getting any results
[05:32] <gwbread> liek 152 mb
[05:32] <bowman> GomezDen: yeah, tried that. doesn't work either :) examined combinations: username + user password, root + user password, root + root password. all to no avail.
[05:32] <davin> gwbread: ah
[05:32] <davin> gwbread: you got any usb harddrive?
[05:32] <gwbread> nope
[05:32] <reptyle> cliffd, np, and it'll say:  libdevel/libgconf2-dev is the package it is contained in... sudo apt-get install libgconf2-dev
[05:32] <lilbit>  does someone know why double clicking to open something does not work in some of my VMWARE virtual machines
[05:32] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: ok, i've found... but in the keyboard shortucts...
[05:32] <kitche> cliffd: libgconf2-dev
[05:33] <davin> gwbread: sorry, cant help you
[05:33] <shut-> how do i install java
[05:33] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: so what? i was talking about them ;p
[05:33] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: i had to use the gconf-editor
[05:33] <der0b\> gwbread: have you attempted to wrap /etc into a gzipped tar?
[05:33] <whazilla> !backup
[05:33] <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
[05:33] <cliffd> reptyle kitche: thanks very much
[05:33] <a_l_e> (sorry, i wanted to write "but not in the keyboard shortcuts)
[05:33] <kesha> gwbread: i can suggest you to use tar
[05:34] <kesha> gwbread, or save just configs that you changed
[05:34] <Enselic> I feel stupid: I just apt-get installed nautilus-open-terminal plugin, but I can't find the feature anywhere in nautilus... does anyone know where the plugin can be accessed after it is installed?
[05:35] <shut-> does anyone
[05:35] <gwbread> its not going to work
[05:35] <shut-> know how to install java
[05:35] <chumphries> java.com
[05:36] <chead> Does anyone know if there's a good way to mount FTP filesystems in Dapper? Curl and it's derivatives need an older version of Libc6, and I can't try downgrading at the moment, unfortunately.
[05:36] <reptyle> Enselic, have you restarted nautilus yet? :P
[05:36] <der0b> gwbread: sudo tar -czvf /tmp/backup-of-etc.tar.gz -C /etc .
[05:36] <gwbread> what is that
[05:36] <chumphries> chead: gnomevfs can do that
[05:36] <kesha> gwbread, so without some usb HD, you cant do anything
[05:36] <Enselic> reptyle: I guess; I've closed all natilus windows and opened one again
[05:36] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: ok, i've set the help to "disabled" in there and now: no help anymore! (who does want the gnome-terminal help when using an app in the terminal... mah!)
[05:36] <shut-> yes
[05:36] <der0b> that will create a gzipped tar file of /etc
[05:36] <shut-> but i downloaded it
[05:36] <GomezDen> bowman: I dont know if this will help any but type 'id <username>' and see if your a lpadmin
[05:36] <der0b> and put it in /tmp
[05:36] <chumphries> chead: add network location in places
[05:36] <shut-> and how do i install it
[05:36] <WineO> Can Rhythmbox play audio cds directly, or does it have to rip them first?
[05:37] <chumphries> shut-: read the instructions
[05:37] <shut-> ok
[05:37] <bowman> GomezDen: yeah, I am
[05:37] <chumphries> basically chmod +x the .bin file and then ./<bin filename>
[05:37] <reptyle> Enselic, open a terminal.  at the prompt type:
[05:37] <chead> chumphries: i need to be able to access the filesystem from the CLI, though, is that possible with gnomevfs?
[05:37] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: but still,rightclick and few F keys aren't working ;p
[05:37] <reptyle> Enselic, pkill -HUP nautilus
[05:37] <DeeTahPanLtah> thats why i prefer konsole
[05:37] <chumphries> chead: ahh, you may need afs then
[05:37] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: I tried what you sad,d he problem was the same
[05:37] <chumphries> chead: afs can mount ftp as a local filesystem
[05:38] <reptyle> Enselic, open a nautilus folder... right click on a folder, it'll be down near the bottom of the right click menu
[05:38] <chead> chumphries: What's afs?
[05:38] <chumphries> chead: andrew filesystem
[05:38] <mnp> im trying to unjournal an ext3 partition for an external HD i rescued from an old laptop
[05:38] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: And the problem was the same
[05:38] <chumphries> chead: can mount different network protocols as local filesystems
[05:38] <GomezDen> bowman: is this local or network?
[05:39] <chumphries> chead: nothing ubuntu has builtin support for though, will require reading and tinkering
[05:39] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: what do you mean with "right click and few F keys aren't working"?
[05:39] <Skaag> quicktime within firefox used to work perfectly for me with mplayer, it no longer does, can someone help me regain this capability?
[05:39] <chead> chumphries: Thanks, I'll play with AFS for a bit :)
[05:39] <Enselic> reptyle: It worked!! Thanks! I guess nautilys kept some sneaky processes in the background although all of its windowses were closed
[05:39] <WineO> All: Can Rhythmbox play audio cds directly or does it have to rip them first?
[05:39] <chumphries> chead: good luck
[05:39] <MrZaius> why can't ssh copy from an ssh session?
[05:39] <reptyle> Enselic, you can also achieve this by logging out and logging back in.  Nautilus is always running in the Ubuntu Gnome session, even when no folders are open.  Nautilus is actually what runs the icons on your desktop.
[05:39] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: what was the problem?
[05:39] <mnp> MrObvious; are you still around?
[05:39] <MrZaius> it's weird.  I can copy and paste at will in a normal session
[05:39] <MrZaius> but when I'm ssh'd into something else, won't copy
[05:39] <Enselic> reptyle: Ah I see
[05:39] <MrZaius> never seen that on any other distro/setup
[05:40] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: for example,f10 calls menu. and in mc,rightclick to select some item doesnt work ;<
[05:40] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: It won't let me resize my fat32 partition that I have winME on.
[05:40] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: gparted was the same
[05:40] <bowman> GomezDen: localhost
[05:40] <Enselic> reptyle:  That explains why my whole desktop flashed when I executed the command :P
[05:40] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: ah damn,what error they output?
[05:40] <Doodluv> MrZaius: you mean you cant use cp /some/file /other/file ? in an ssh session?
[05:40] <MrZaius> Doodluv: no
[05:40] <GomezDen> bowman: Im out of ideas :(
[05:40] <MrZaius> copy and paste with gpm
[05:40] <MrZaius> with the mouse, in the console
[05:40] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: No error. All of the options to make the free space larger are greyed out.
[05:40] <bowman> GomezDen: thanks anyway :)
[05:41] <MrZaius> just puts nonsense in the buffer, instead of the highlighted text
[05:41] <amatiel> amatiel: Well the only error it ever gave me was when I went to resize automatically, it said it couldn't free enough space. There's 10 gigs free
[05:41] <reptyle> Enselic, yes, you send nautilus the SIGHUP signal, which most applications that accept signals interpret this as the sign that you want it to reload...
[05:41] <Doodluv> ahh
[05:41] <MrZaius> for instance, the words "initializing cache" copy as
[05:41] <MrZaius>  
[05:41] <MrZaius> (that really was it)
[05:41] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: what you mean? how you wanted to make it larger?
[05:42] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: ah, ok... i'm lucky not to have to use mc, then :-)
[05:42] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: I wanted to make the fat32 partition smaller so I could install ubuntu
[05:42] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: and resize doesn't work?
[05:43] <amatiel> amatiel: Yes.
[05:43] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: ^
[05:43] <brucedes> I've got a .pl file that I need to use to convert a file. How do I run it?
[05:43] <spunk> I'm trying to debug a problem I have with 'esd'. Q: Should /etc/esound/esd.conf  have "auto_spawn=1" ?
[05:43] <amatiel> brucedes: in the directory of that file ./script.pl
[05:43] <amatiel> brucedes: if it says permission denied, chmod a+x script.pl
[05:44] <brucedes> thats what I need to know
[05:44] <brucedes> does the chmod have to be done with sudo?
[05:44] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: none of windows-native resizing tools work?
[05:44] <amatiel> brucedes: if the owner is root
[05:44] <earthian> hello
[05:44] <Enselic> reptyle: Oh, so pkill -HUP != pkill -H -U -P? pkill -HUP == pkill -SIGHUP? That also explains why I didn't get any sense of man pkill for -H -U and -P
[05:44] <earthian> my sound is still not working...
[05:44] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: Didn't try them.
[05:44] <earthian> can somebody help me fix it?
[05:44] <m0rfin> Can someone help me with Cedega?
[05:44] <spunk> Does anyone know exactly how 'esd' is lanuched during startup? By gdm?
[05:44] <earthian> i hear sound during login
[05:45] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: I didn't realise windows ME had one.
[05:45] <earthian> but when i login sound system goes down
[05:45] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: But somehow I doubt that
[05:45] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: you may always download few ;)
[05:45] <amatiel> s the issue
[05:45] <der0b> gwbread: did the tar work for you?
[05:45] <amatiel> DeeTahPanLtah: gparted did not work, the installcd did not work... perhaps the problem is elsewhere than the software?
[05:45] <kitche> spunk: it is probably lauched when sound uses it if you have it set up right, sicne I know nothing uses it directly
[05:46] <brucedes> got this when I ran it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22250
[05:46] <DeeTahPanLtah> amatiel: they are somewhat similar,try windows-based tools like partitionmagic
[05:46] <spunk> kitche: Ok. It seems that esd gets launched twice during startup. Do you have any idea why?
[05:47] <earthian> all sounds on my ubuntu are not working. errors etc... however the startup login sound works.. before i start a gnome/kde session.. HELP?
[05:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> earthian: what you mean by "all sounds"? mp3's?
[05:48] <earthian> i mean sound device
[05:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> maybe its muted?
[05:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> check pcm,master and master mono channels
[05:48] <kitche> spunk: not really but esd is the enlightenment sound daemon correct?
[05:48] <earthian> when i click on the volume control it shows me an error
[05:48] <earthian> i already checked them
[05:48] <spunk> kitche: that is, I have two esd processes running, none is a "child process" of the other... So I suspect that esd is started twice. Also, in .xsession-errors, there are some complaints about "stale socket" for esd.
[05:48] <DeeTahPanLtah> what kind of error?
[05:48] <Doodluv> brucdes, maybe you need perl
[05:48] <earthian> one moment
[05:49] <spunk> kitche: I dont know. :-) I only know that gnome uses it...?
[05:49] <der0b> brucedes: you said the script is to convert a file, does it expect you to give a filename at runtime?  like ./script.pl myfile
[05:49] <WineO> All: Can Rhythmbox play audio cds directly or does it have to rip them first
[05:49] <kitche> spunk:spunk: you could try killing one of the processes
[05:49] <earthian> DeeTahPanLtah: No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[05:49] <a_l_e> DeeTahPanLtah: why don't you use xterm then?
[05:49] <brucedes> i did, i used: ./dmg2iso.pl osx.dmg osx.iso so i could burn a backup of my borked os x disk
[05:50] <DeeTahPanLtah> earthian: install them then ;)
[05:50] <spunk> kitche: this have worked berfore, and I have not tampered with anything lately. :-)   Wierd thing; if I boot every other time in "failsafe" mode, it works great during a normal boot.
[05:50] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: cause konsole includes the features i need
[05:50] <a_l_e> aaaah :-)
[05:50] <DeeTahPanLtah> a_l_e: like colored transparency or tabbing
[05:50] <earthian> but sounds work before i login
[05:50] <earthian> i mean in gdm
[05:50] <DeeTahPanLtah> earthian: install the plugins ;)
[05:50] <spunk> kitche: yes, when I login, gnome gets stalled. When i killall esd, it continues. The USB mouse is sluggish too...
[05:51] <kitche> spunk: hmm probably has something on how esd is set up
[05:51] <kitche> spunk: well I don't know to much about usb mouses since I use my usb as a ps2
[05:52] <spunk> kitche: The mouse thing seems related to my problem with esd. When I do the every-second boot in "failsafe" the mouse works fine...
[05:52] <spunk> kitche: First i thought that the esd problem had to do with an old socket in /tmp. but now I dont know...
[05:53] <spunk> kitche: I've tried to set auto_spawn=0 in /etc/esound/esd.conf to, but at no avail. :-(
[05:53] <kitche> spunk: well did you delete the sock? since it's usually respawned on a boot anyways
[05:54] <spunk> kitche: yes, i did. I suspect thats why it also works every other time I boot in "failsafe", the socket gets whiped at startup...
[05:54] <overridden> spunk: System -> Preferences -> Sound => Sounds -> diable software sound mixing (ESD)

[05:55] <spunk> overridden: yes, that will effectively stop esd. but then I have no sexy system sounds. :-)
[05:55] <overridden> dont tell me you have those "thanks for turning me on" woman sounds ?
[05:55] <kitche> spunk: at least it temporary fix your problem
[05:56] <spunk> overridden: no :-D
[05:56] <overridden> k :)
[05:56] <spunk> kitche: yes, true, I'll try it. Thanks for the help!
[05:56] <spunk> kitche, overridden: I've to leave, thanks for the help! I'll return later. :-P
[05:57] <overridden> bye
[05:57] <asoka123> hello everybody
[05:57] <spunk> bye
[05:58] <jenda_> Is wiping my /, leaving my /home and installing edgy into the new / a good idea?
[05:59] <MrZaius> jenda_: probably wouldn't hurt anything
[05:59] <jenda_> MrZaius: will try.. what's with the Mr* nicks? :-D
[05:59] <MrZaius> in my case, it used to be DrZaius
[05:59] <MrZaius> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Zaius
[06:00] <MrZaius> but that nick was just too common
[06:00] <jenda_> ah, a wikipedian
[06:00] <MrZaius> nope
[06:00] <rafael> How do I make to intall the flash?
[06:00] <schwagner> jenda_, i usually start with a fresh /home just to make sure i get all of my user scripts and settings updated, but your way would probably work
[06:00] <MrZaius> a theocratic overlord of an ape-run NYC
[06:00] <MrZaius> rafael: apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:00] <asoka123> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Zaius
[06:00] <MrZaius> rafael: you'll probably have to add the multiverse repo to your /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:01] <jpjacobs> schwagner, you can just delete all .[a-Z] * files
[06:01] <jenda_> schwagner: it's a secondary PC I hardly ever use. I want to give Edgy a shot.
[06:02] <schwagner> jpjacobs, yea, that would probably work too, but it also gives me a chance to clean out all my old junk
[06:02] <rafael> MrZaius: How do I do that?
[06:02] <schwagner> jenda_,  go for it
[06:02] <jenda_> !sources > rafael
[06:02] <jenda_> !easysource > rafael
[06:02] <jenda_> there
[06:03] <jenda_> rafael: easysource should take a minute, and give you all the repositories you might need.
[06:04] <asoka123> how can I run an application and my terminal window is still free to do another work?

[06:05] <HBK> hello
[06:06] <HBK> I'm having problem installing Ubuntu on a USB HDD
[06:06] <HBK> I tried installing Kubuntu in it which works and installs
[06:06] <HBK> but Ubuntu doesn't install
[06:07] <asoka123> madm1ke, thanx i got it
[06:07] <bitmvnch> Has anyone tried the latest ubuntu server in Parallels, esp on OSX?  I'm hung at "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel." :/
[06:07] <davin> HBK: what problem, locks up? error?
[06:07] <HBK> it says converting file system goes to 15% then says can't convert file system
[06:07] <bitmvnch> kubuntu installed fine, but i'm trying to reproduce a problem report which does not occur on kubuntu.
[06:07] <lgc> nalioth, hi.
[06:07] <davin> HBK: also Kubuntu and Ubuntu use the same packages, if you want gnome just sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop on your Kubuntu
[06:07] <HBK> I don't like kubuntu
[06:08] <HBK> it's very complicated
[06:08] <HBK> I tried to uninstall that KDE package
[06:08] <HBK> from Kubuntu but it doesn't do it
[06:08] <davin> HBK: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop  then  sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[06:08] <HBK> which CD-ROM do I put in?
[06:08] <davin> HBK: on your Kubuntu
[06:09] <HBK> the Kubuntu one or Ubuntu one?
[06:09] <HBK> ok
[06:09] <davin> HBK: You dont need a CD
[06:09] <axis> high
[06:09] <HBK> I don't need CD?
[06:09] <axis> easyubuntu says
[06:09] <davin> HBK: just install Kubuntu, installing gnome (ubuntu-desktop) then remove KDE (kubuntu-desktop)
[06:09] <axis> root@axis:/home/installs/easyubuntu# python easyubuntu.py
[06:09] <axis> Your sources.list does not match your system configuration.
[06:09] <axis> Either you have changed your sources.list or an system
[06:09] <axis> upgrade has failed. EasyUbuntu will not run unless these are fixed!
[06:09] <axis> how do i fix that ?
[06:09] <HBK> how do I uninstall that KDE Desktop?
[06:09] <davin> axis: use pastecode.com next time if you paste
[06:09] <axis> sorry
[06:09] <HBK> I tired thru Add/Remove Programs
[06:09] <HBK> it doesn't work
[06:10] <davin> HBK: first install gnome by 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop' then remove kde by 'sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop'
[06:10] <davin> HBK; in a terminal
[06:10] <axis> davin u know a fix to easyubuntu ?
[06:10] <kitche> HBK kubuntu-desktop is just a metapkg I thought
[06:10] <HBK> I give that command in terminal window?
[06:10] <davin> axis: deselect videos
[06:10] <davin> HBK: yes
[06:10] <HBK> ok
[06:10] <axis> i can't get into selectionmeny any more :$
[06:11] <davin> HBK: You see, Kubuntu is Ubuntu with ubuntu-desktop removed and kubuntu-desktop added, that is all, you can easilly switch between K/X/Ubuntu
[06:11] <HBK> so if I uninstall that KDE package all the apps will be gone right? that Kconqeror and Amarock
[06:11] <HBK> I don't want that
[06:11] <davin> HBK: You can reinstall amaroK and Konqueror in GNOME
[06:11] <HBK> I don't want Konqeror I want Firefox
[06:11] <davin> HBK: Well then
[06:12] <HBK> One more problem I was having...
[06:12] <Ych> ummm
[06:12] <HBK> In this Kubuntu installation
[06:12] <HBK> My CD/Drives didn't appear
[06:12] <kitche> HBK: I m not sure if kubuntu-desktop will uninstall KDE since that's just a metapackage
[06:12] <davin> kitche: ive did myself
[06:12] <HBK> uhh?
[06:12] <Ych> i thought linux was supposed to be more stable than windows, can someone recommend a media player with library that doesn't crash as often as amaroK?
[06:12] <bowman> Ych: mplayer.
[06:13] <davin> Ych: mplayer for video :] 
[06:13] <Ych> i use vlc for video
[06:13] <axis> davin how do i deselect videos if i can't select ?
[06:13] <Ych> but i'd like something with a library comparable to winamps for mp3
[06:13] <zmo> hi
[06:13] <HBK> but why is not Ubuntu installing? is there any reason? I did the CD-Check it says it's ok. It just doesn't convert the File System to ext3 it stops on 15% and gives error saying Can't Convert File System
[06:14] <axis> i'll post the key issue
[06:14] <axis> Your sources.list does not match your system configuration.
[06:14] <axis> Either you have changed your sources.list or an system
[06:14] <axis> upgrade has failed. EasyUbuntu will not run unless these are fixed!
[06:14] <davin> axis: Videos is broken in EasyUbuntu, anyways you should ask in #easyubuntu
[06:14] <davin> axis: dont paste in here, use patecode.com
[06:14] <lgc> Anyone familiar with locales?
[06:14] <kitche> !locales > lgc
[06:14] <HBK> I saw Kubuntu has a in-built IRC chat KIRC does Ubuntu also have that?
[06:14] <Sonderblade> if you connect a cell phone to ubuntu, does ubuntu detect it?
[06:14] <pos69sum> hi - is /etc/rc.local the best place to put an ssh tunneling script?
[06:15] <Ych> the version of mplayer i have doesn't have a library, bowman and davin
[06:15] <davin> HBK: I use X-Chat instead of Konversation, but you can use any app with either GNOME or KDE
[06:15] <pos69sum> i want the tunnels to always be running once i start the computer up
[06:15] <lgc> kitche, thanks. I wish that could help. But it didn't.
[06:15] <bowman> Ych: you can get all codecs from http://mplayerhq.hu
[06:15] <davin> HBK: its not that the KDE apps are limited to KDE, you can use all of em in GNOME too
[06:15] <HBK> I don't want KDE at all it's very complicated
[06:15] <Ych> but how does that give me a library?
[06:15] <Ych> i have codecs
[06:15] <Ych> id like a media library
[06:15] <HBK> ok so I can install KDE apps in GNOME?
[06:15] <davin> HBK: Yep
[06:16] <kitche> Ych: there is banshee
[06:16] <davin> HBK: Any gnome apps in KDE, whatever you want
[06:16] <davin> HBK: and*
[06:16] <HBK> I just give that command in the terminal window which you gave and everything will become like Ubuntu?
[06:16] <shut-> i just read instructions and tryed and it didnt work
[06:16] <Ych> ok, ill check that one out
[06:16] <reptyle> Ych, there is also amarok
[06:16] <HBK> will it also say at start up that I'm running Ubuntu or say it's Kubuntu?
[06:16] <davin> HBK: firstly 'sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop' then when its done 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop'
[06:16] <Ych> thats what im using
[06:17] <Ych> it crashes all the time reptyle
[06:17] <bowman> Ych: oh sorry, I was thinking of library in terms of "libmpeg" ;)
[06:17] <davin> HBK: then reboot your computer
[06:17] <Ych> no sorry
[06:17] <reptyle> Ych, it should'nt... :P
[06:17] <bowman> Ych: pardon me :)
[06:17] <Ych> i meant like a media library
[06:17] <Ych> s ok
[06:17] <kitche> Ych: banshee is gnomes amarok pretty much
[06:17] <Ych> reptyle, it always goes zombie on me
[06:17] <HBK> Yes davin I got the command thank you but when the boot screen loads it says Kubuntu so after doing that will it say Ubuntu or still say Kubuntu?
[06:17] <Ych> well thanks, kitche
[06:17] <reptyle> ych, what engine do you have it set for?
[06:17] <davin> HBK: Itll give you Ubuntu loading screen
[06:18] <Ych> the default on
[06:18] <Ych> e
[06:18] <davin> HBK: If it doesnt, just change it via gnome
[06:18] <BreaKIce> I do not remember a name of the little "machine" that run Windows-CE few years ago; the one smaller than laptop, larger than Palm. I am just interested if it's possible to install linux on such machines, are they still available, and what is their name ?
[06:18] <HBK> Very Nice!
[06:18] <Ych> where it says, if you dont know what these mean, use the default
[06:18] <reptyle> ych, change it to xine, and set the xine engine to alsa, it may improve its stability greatly.
[06:18] <HBK> How do I change that thru GNOME if it doesn't do? which command do I give?
[06:18] <Ych> ok, thanks, reptyle  ill try that
[06:18] <reptyle> Ych, xine engine will also support crossfading :P
[06:18] <davin> HBK: Its just a loading screen, it can give you Kubuntu loading screen but still use GNOME when you log in
[06:19] <davin> HBK: anyway youre supposed to get the Ubuntu loading screen
[06:19] <HBK> Yes I want the Ubuntu loading screen
[06:19] <shut-> who knows why
[06:19] <davin> HBK: just do the 2 commands I gave you and reboot your PC
[06:19] <davin> HBK: all should be fine
[06:19] <HBK> Ok thanks

[06:23] <kitche> HBK you edit your xorg.conf and add the res to the depth that you use
[06:23] <Ych> ok, reptyle, so far its been up 30 seconds without crashing, gotta eat dinner now, but ill see how well that works
[06:23] <davin> HBK: follow that tutorial
[06:23] <davin> HBK: itll install your drivers, and then you can fully 'use' your graphics card to any extent
[06:23] <HBK> ok thanks

[06:26] <davin> HBK: good luck!
[06:26] <vook> Well, I have some battery issues not specific to Linux or Ubuntu.  Basically the memory effect on my l-ion battery is so bad, that essentially the last full charge was 0 mAh.  However, the battery still gives a good hour of time.  I'll paste some proc stuff in #flood.  I'm looking for a way to correct this myself, anyone?
[06:26] <|_SpY_|> hi... somebody know how i install phpmyadmin using apt-get ?
[06:26] <reptyle> davin, bitchx doesn't require X :)
[06:27] <davin> reptyle: does it come with ubuntu? preinstalled like irssi
[06:27] <|_SpY_|> somebody can help me?
[06:27] <DanaG> What's the difference between cpufreqd and powersaved?
[06:27] <CokeNCode> guys, anyone familiar with denyhosts ?
[06:27] <CokeNCode> i'm trying to block access to my ssh server
[06:27] <davin> |_SpY_|: sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin?
[06:27] <CokeNCode> i wanna stop all ip's except a chosen few
[06:28] <zmo> what's the difference between add/remove applications and synaptic ?
[06:28] <ThomAnnatar> Spy sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
[06:28] <CokeNCode> or at the very least set it so that only one attempt is given before the ip gets blocked
[06:28] <CokeNCode> i changed the config file
[06:28] <CokeNCode> but it's still letting thru too many attempts
[06:28] <davin> zmo: add/remove is the simple version of synaptic
[06:28] <zmo> CokeNCode - man hosts.deny
[06:28] <|_SpY_|> davin: i try it .. but he say.. cannot find phpmyadmin
[06:28] <davin> zmo: when you click Advanced in the Add/Remove Software you get Synaptic
[06:28] <zmo> davin - ok
[06:28] <davin> |_SpY_|: open up Synaptic and search for phpmyadmin or phpadmin and then install it
[06:29] <davin> AFK
[06:29] <kgeffert> davin, umm.... no it doesn't acutally :p but it does work with screen :P
[06:29] <ThomAnnatar> add/remove uses the software list from the cd.. synaptic uses the apt software list :O
[06:29] <zmo> and it does not make other operations that synaptic does not ?
[06:29] <|_SpY_|> i use ubuntu server
[06:29] <|_SpY_|> no have x here
[06:29] <reptyle> lol :)
[06:29] <davin_afk> |_SpY_| wait ill find it for u
[06:29] <|_SpY_|> k thankz
[06:29] <|_SpY_|> :)
[06:29] <ThomAnnatar> |_SpY_| you updated ur apt sources.list ?
[06:30] <davin_afk> |_SpY_|: hmm I have phpmyadmin here.
[06:30] <|_SpY_|> ThomAnnatar: how i make it?

I've looked at all the HOWTO's I could find, but after following the instructions, fglrxinfo still says I'm running Mesa GLX Indirect instead of the ATI drivers.  Can anoyne give me some advice?
[06:31] <ThomAnnatar> the ubuntu version

[06:32] <raxor> if it works, put it in your startup
[06:32] <reptyle> iqon, what happened?
[06:32] <DanaG> BrianHH: One useful site for ATI stuff is www.Rage3D.com/board
[06:32] <Tiger-z> rafael: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[06:33] <DanaG> Under "catalyst", there's a Linux subforum.
[06:33] <|_SpY_|> im a noob on linux...
[06:33] <raxor> me too!
[06:33] <beeroo> my language shows up in character map but when I try to add it to keyboard layout button I can't find my language
[06:33] <ThomAnnatar> im not ^^
[06:33] <ThomAnnatar> spy im gonna pm you
[06:33] <ThomAnnatar> you can read it?
[06:33] <iceman24k> anyone got a quick link to a complete sources list
[06:33] <MisterMistero> hello, someone does know a media player for linux with the "always on top" option ?
[06:33] <iqon> i just wanted to make sure there weren't any addressing issues with volumes over 2TB on w/ ext3...
[06:34] <asoka123> can anybody help me :)
[06:34] <MisterMistero> mplayer is great, but doesn't have the option
[06:34] <raxor> oops... I meant to say the xmodmap thing to beero
[06:34] <reptyle> iqon, I'd probably use xfs on something that large.
[06:34] <Tiger-z> mistermistero: the window manager usually has those options
[06:34] <iqon> i had a standard partition of 2.4TB and it ended up getting corrupted, i was hoping using LVM instead of dos partitions would help
[06:34] <ThomAnnatar> MisterMistero: Totem-Xine ;)
[06:34] <beeroo> raxor, xmodmap is installed but it is not showing my language...
[06:34] <iqon> reptyle: what are the advantages of xfs over ext3 on large disks?
[06:34] <raxor> asoka123: yeah you can write to it
[06:35] <WineO> All: Can Rhythmbox play audio cds directly or does it have to rip them first?
[06:35] <raxor> beero: hmmm, then I am likely useless
[06:35] <ThomAnnatar> Rythmbox can play from cd
[06:35] <reptyle> iqon, xfs is designed for large volumes and large files...
[06:35] <MisterMistero> sorry tiger but i'm new to linux and i don't know how to active it from the wm
[06:35] <BrianHH> thanks, DanaG.  I'll have a look at that.
[06:35] <asoka123> raxor: any link or tip?
[06:35] <kitche> WineO: yeah what ThomAnnatar said
[06:35] <Mikey```> Hello. I'm trying to force synaptic to reinstall the nvidia package that came with Breezy, I've done package->force version, but it seems to have no effect when i click apply...
[06:35] <raxor> .... looking
[06:35] <reptyle> iqon, however, LVM still uses a "partition" :P
[06:35] <Mikey```> Am I doing anthing wrong?
[06:35] <DanaG> There's also #rage3d on irc.gamesurge.net
[06:35] <raxor> asoka123: from a terminal do: sfdisk -l
[06:35] <ThomAnnatar> |_SpY_| read ur pm please
[06:36] <MisterMistero> thanks thom anyway
[06:36] <raxor> it will list the logical drives
[06:36] <DanaG> (Un?)fortunately, my current system is an NV card, so I can't personally help.
[06:36] <WineO> kitche I missed Thom's response.  How do I do that?  It's not obvious to me
[06:36] <DanaG> But did you change xorg.conf?
[06:36] <DanaG> And use aticonfig?
[06:36] <Tiger-z> mistermistero: if you left click the top left corner of the window, there should be option for always on top
[06:36] <MisterMistero> thanks, i will try it
[06:36] <reptyle> iqon, can I ask what raid level your array is in?
[06:36] <ThomAnnatar> MisterMistero: ubuntu has the other version installed just do apt-get install totem-xine and its good :)
[06:36] <Tiger-z> mistermistero: or right click
[06:36] <cliffd> can someone tell me if there is a way to verify the features used during compiling of a package. im wondering if mmx or sse was usd to compile imlib2 which is libimlib2 pkg thanks.
[06:37] <MisterMistero> yes i know how to install it
[06:37] <kitche> WineO: it plays cds
[06:37] <reptyle> iqon, and whether your doing software or hardware raid?
[06:37] <raxor> asoka123: that should be: sudo sfdisk -l
[06:37] <FRET> hello all
[06:37] <Tiger-z> mistermistero: most window managers allow you to always on top any window
[06:37] <kitche> WineO: it should be in the meny of it
[06:37] <raxor> you should see your drive with SYSTEM "W95 FAT32" or something...
[06:37] <raxor> make a note of the /dev/sdaN or /dev/hdaN
[06:38] <BrianHH> Thanks, DanaG.
[06:38] <raxor> asoka123: you got it?
[06:38] <DanaG> Perhaps make a copy of xorg.conf first.
[06:38] <DanaG> Then change the current one to use fglrx .
[06:39] <iceman24k> ok, how can i download streamtuner
[06:39] <albacker> guys i did a record with istanbul and than opened the .ogg file with totem, and totem kills itself ? why is that ? any way to fix this ?
[06:39] <DanaG> automatix is one way.
[06:40] <ThomAnnatar> you got totem-xine?
[06:40] <Tiger-z> Why is lm-sensors so flaky with new hardware? it wont work with my Gigabyte 965p-DS3. Windows utilties just scan the ISA bus for temps. I can't see why it's such a pain on linux :(
[06:40] <ThomAnnatar> or totem-gstreamer
[06:41] <kitche> Tiger-z: it directly accesses the sensors where windows doesn't
[06:41] <raxor> asoka123: then do this... (1) make a new folder /mnt/fatdrive (or whatever) and (2) make a backup of /etc/fstab (3) edit /etc/fstab and add a line /dev/hda2 /mnt/fatdrive vfat defaults 0 0
[06:41] <glguy> Tiger-z: you don't see why it is such a pain to support all motherboards manufactured without direct support from the manufacturers?
[06:41] <DanaG> Speedfan _does_
[06:41] <DanaG> use sensors.
[06:41] <raxor> asoka123 run: sudo mount -a
[06:42] <davin_afk> back
[06:42] <asoka123> raxor: ...trying
[06:42] <ThomAnnatar> how do i force a background color/image on a certain widget using gtkrc?
[06:43] <hadi> where can I find "source.list"?
[06:43] <raxor> asoka123: note replace "/dev/hda2" with your drive
[06:43] <ThomAnnatar> hadi: /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:43] <raxor> hadi: locate sources.list
[06:43] <hadi> thx
[06:44] <ThomAnnatar> how do i force a background color/image on a certain widget using gtkrc?
[06:44] <mopflite> cliffd: dpkg-query -p <package> gives quite a lot of information - not sure if it will be sufficient for your needs though
[06:45] <Mikey```> Why wont synaptic package manager allow me to force an older nvidia-glx version?
[06:45] <socrates_> can i enable titlebar transparency in metacity? (like they have in kwin)
[06:45] <no_dog> I'm having a problem with my external harddrive. For some reason, it always shows up as "read-only," and I am unable to write anything to it.
[06:45] <beerockxs> I accidentally deleted my /etc/jvm file, how can I get it back?
[06:45] <hadi> witch command show me my directory now?
[06:46] <Mikey```> ls
[06:46] <mopflite> hadi: pwd
[06:46] <Mikey```> Oh.
[06:46] <hadi> thx
[06:46] <Mikey```> If you mean tells you the current dir, not the contents
[06:46] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog you probably mounted ur external harddrive as root
[06:46] <Mikey```> I think ls takes some flag
[06:46] <kitche> Mikey''': ls shows files
[06:46] <Mikey```> Yeah, isn't there a flag to get the current dir?
[06:46] <raxor> asoka123: any luck?
[06:46] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: Oh? I just plug it in. How can I make sure that it's mounting it as myself?
[06:47] <kitche> Mikey''' nope
[06:47] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog good question gonna look it up
[06:47] <socrates_> can i enable titlebar transparency in metacity? (like they have in kwin)
[06:47] <Mikey```> Oh... I suck. =D
[06:47] <iqon> reptyle: i'm using raid5 hardware (3ware 9550sx)
[06:47] <schnauzer> Is it a bad idea to install NOT AUTHENTICATED updates with update manager?
[06:48] <cliffd> mopflite: thanks much
[06:48] <trappist> schnauzer: it's a better idea to apt-key add the gpg keys from your apt sources
[06:48] <schnauzer> trappist: thanks, I'll look into that
[06:48] <iceman24k> not sure what to do, would like a more "OSX" look and feel, but should i use Gnome or XFCE or any suggestions
[06:49] <DanaG> I personally don't like imitations.
[06:49] <hadi> I can't install mplayer from apt-get E: Couldn't find package mplayer.
[06:49] <DanaG> Many things reach the point of "so close, but different enough that it feels wrong"
[06:49] <kitche> iceman24k: if you really want ed to play with the system look up "kde look-like OSx"
[06:49] <DanaG> baghira
[06:49] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog do you mind if i pm you?
[06:49] <DanaG> The t-ish Gnome theme is not quite right.
[06:50] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: Not at all. Please do.
[06:50] <d-s-d> hi
[06:50] <raxor> anyone know of an IRC channel for the baobab file utility?
[06:50] <hadi> I can't install mplayer from apt-get E: Couldn't find package mplayer.
[06:50] <raxor> hi
[06:50] <DJAdmiral> hadi: maybe you need to add multi and uni repos?
[06:50] <DJAdmiral> !info mplayer
[06:50] <ubotu> mplayer: The Ultimate Movie Player For Linux. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2:0.99+1.0pre7try2+cvs20060117-0ubuntu8 (dapper), package size 3265 kB, installed size 7916 kB
[06:51] <jacques> hi everyone
[06:51] <d-s-d> After updating my xorg (and rebooting, since I only restart X when i also restart my machine), it complains that "no screens" were found...
[06:51] <d-s-d> though the configuration has not been changed...
[06:51] <[GuS] > hadi, you need to add to your repos these lines:
[06:51] <[GuS] > deb http://ar.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper multiverse
[06:51] <[GuS] > deb-src http://ar.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper multiverse
[06:51] <kitche> d-s-d: you probably have to reconfigure it
[06:51] <sybermile> has anyone got XGL to work with a ATI card?
[06:51] <jacques>  i have a twinview problem with mu nvidia card is there someone that can help
[06:51] <d-s-d> kitche: and how?
[06:52] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog ur readin my pm?
[06:52] <DJAdmiral> d-s-d there's a patch for that thingo
[06:52] <hadi> OK
[06:52] <DJAdmiral> d-s-d: it happened a bit recently
[06:52] <d-s-d> And how can i apply that patch?
[06:52] <DJAdmiral> d-s-d: lemme lookitup
[06:52] <cliffd> if I was going to compile imlib2 and I wanted to use mmx and sse would it be ./configure --enable-FEATURE=sse   ?
[06:53] <cliffd> im so used to the "USE" var form gentoo im useless without it.
[06:53] <DJAdmiral> cliffd: check the readme within the ousrce tar file
[06:53] <DJAdmiral> cliffd: source*
[06:53] <hadi> mplayer: Depends: libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5) but it is not installable
[06:53] <hadi> E: Broken packages
[06:53] <cliffd> DJAdmiral: just lists the requirements and examples of programs using the lib like Eterm.
[06:53] <last_desp> why am I able to use the Internet on LiveCD and not when installed?
[06:53] <[GuS] > hadi, did you sudo apt-get update?
[06:54] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog hello there?
[06:54] <iceman24k> there a fluid toolbar for GNOME like the OSX one that sits at the bottom of the screen ?

[06:58] <pos69sum> i was following the ubuntuguide.org website - to allow system users to use sudo without having to enter a password
[06:58] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog what irc client ur using?
[06:58] <DanaG> MrMikey: restricted-modules for current kernel is also needed
[06:58] <iturk> i have install the plugin
[06:58] <pos69sum> i used visudo to add this to my /etc/sudoers file
[06:58] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: Gaim

[06:58] <inimesekene> hello
[06:58] <ReOli> tarde pessoal.
[06:58] <DJAdmiral> |_SpY_|: yes, you need to get it from the source
[06:58] <pos69sum> i am still prompted for my password when i try to use sudo
[06:58] <davin_> http://www.fis-clan.com/Forums/index.php?showtopic=2269
[06:58] <|_SpY_|> DJAdmiral: k tnankz :)
[06:58] <pos69sum> after i enter my password once, i am not prompted for my password again though
[06:58] <MrMikey> Hmm, I'm running breezy's kernel DanaG. I suspect it installed the restricted-modules for the latest kernel installed.
[06:58] <DJAdmiral> jacques: I don't have any experience with nvidia, sorry - you can probably use this though
[06:58] <pos69sum> but i still have to enter my password to use sudo the first time

[06:58] <pos69sum> what am i doing wrong
[06:59] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: I sent you a PM. I guess it didn't work?
[06:59] <iturk> kitche: can you try to open it: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/help/3681938.stm
[06:59] <reptyle> iqon, I always use lvm, even for smaller volumes.
[06:59] <DanaG> I wish they'd add Rage3D as a link for ATI stuff -- I like that site.
[06:59] <ThomAnnatar> no it dint :P
[06:59] <inimesekene> i have a problem... i tried to install a .deb from the gui, but canceled and then it was impossible to kill the installer for me at least
[06:59] <reptyle> iqon, I like to be able to snapshot volumes when necessary without shutting them down :)
[06:59] <jacques>  DJAdmiral, thanx
[06:59] <iqon> reptyle: thanks, i'm reformatting with xfs now
[06:59] <DJAdmiral> pos69sum: I would recommend that you do leave a password on sudo. no password on sudo can lead to bugs in plenty of applications
[06:59] <inimesekene> and now synaptic and  others don't work
[06:59] <DJAdmiral> jacques: no problem
[06:59] <x_O> DJAdmiral: I found a fix to my problem (mldonkey)
[07:00] <x_O> ... just had to delete a file.
[07:00] <iqon> reptyle: do you know if there is any problem using 32 bit dapper with disks up to 8TB?
[07:00] <inimesekene> i have a problem... i tried to install a .deb from the gui, but canceled and then it was impossible to kill the installer for me at least
[07:00] <inimesekene> and now synaptic and  others don't work
[07:00] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog just wait a sec
[07:00] <MrMikey> DanaG, The package for my kernel, "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-9-386" Is not installed, and is locked. Is there anything I can do?
[07:01] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: ok
[07:01] <DJAdmiral> x_O: and i found a fix for it but you left lol
[07:01] <x_O> DJAdmiral: What did it involve? lol.
[07:01] <DJAdmiral> x_O: all you had to do was clear the apt-get debian archive cache lol
[07:01] <reptyle> iqon, I don't believe there is any issue (anymore).. but usually that is determined by the max volume size of the filesytem.
[07:01] <x_O> DJAdmiral: awwwwwwwwwwwwww lol. oh well, i deleted some file after I read a forum post.
[07:01] <ThomAnnatar> i never use irc on gaim so i need to figure it out
[07:01] <inimesekene> ever after a reboot
[07:01] <inimesekene> i have a problem... i tried to install a .deb from the gui, but canceled and then it was impossible to kill the installer for me at least
[07:01] <iqon> reptyle: ok, i'd hate to lose the data
[07:01] <inimesekene> and now synaptic and  others don't work
[07:01] <monteiro> inimesekene : do "sudo apt-get -f install"
[07:01] <inimesekene> ever after a reboot
[07:02] <x_O> I don't even know how to get mldonkey to START.
[07:02] <DJAdmiral> MrMikey: try this command: uname -r
[07:02] <reptyle> iqon, backup.
[07:02] <x_O> mldonkey-server doesn't enagde it... nor does mldonkey-gui
[07:02] <x_O> ... if those are even the commands.
[07:02] <asoka123> raxor: thats working.. gr8 :) but I have to use sudo, can I change the write permissions to my default user
[07:02] <DJAdmiral> x_O: in this case, I'd go for one solution.
[07:02] <DanaG> MrMikey:  Locked?  How's that?
[07:02] <DJAdmiral> x_O: Bittorrent! xD
[07:02] <Tirno> Hi. I've just upgraded to dapper (from hoary, via breezy). sound-recorder used to be able to save in .mp3 format (better for sharing files with other people). But I can't remember how I got that to happen. Help?
[07:03] <DanaG> Are the repos still enabled?
[07:03] <Tirno> (it will only do ogg and wav now)
[07:03] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog: you see the tabs on ur conversation window? my name should be on there
[07:03] <raxor> asoka123: I think so...
[07:03] <asoka123> raxor: also is it recomended to work like that
[07:03] <DJAdmiral> DanaG: He probably has an updated kernel and it won't allow him to download and install old kernels
[07:03] <jacques>  DJAdmiral, are there any other ubuntu channels
[07:03] <x_O> DJAdmiral: I already have bittorrent installed. Have the default client .. which seems to work this time.. and got utorrent under wine
[07:03] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: I replied. Do you see it?
[07:03] <MrMikey> DanaG: I don't know, I recently upgraded breezy -> dapper, then installed nvidia-glx, it grabbed the restricted modules for thee 2.6.15 kernel
[07:03] <x_O> but i gotta go eat foodage
[07:03] <MrMikey> (Which I cannot use)
[07:03] <raxor> asoka123: don't know... but I do it on all of my machines
[07:03] <x_O> see ya later
[07:03] <inimesekene> tanks
[07:03] <MrMikey> DJAdmiral, 2.6.12-9-386
[07:03] <DJAdmiral> x_O: try bittornado
[07:03] <inimesekene> thanks! *
[07:04] <DJAdmiral> jacques: plenty
[07:04] <asoka123> raxor: cool could u give me tip how to change write permissions to my user name..
[07:04] <jacques>  DJAdmiral, what r they
[07:04] <DanaG> YOu can use "force version" in Synaptic or Aptitude.
[07:04] <hadi> what is the best bittorrent client?
[07:04] <lukaswayne9> Where can I find a log of all bootup output?
[07:04] <iceman24k> ok what media player works best with shoutcast ?
[07:04] <synic> lukaswayne9: dmesg | less
[07:04] <DJAdmiral> hadi: in my experience - bittornado for ubuntu, and utorrent for windoze
[07:04] <MrMikey> Dana, when I select the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-9-386 package in synaptic, all the options are grayed out
[07:05] <raxor> asoka123: I wonder if you can just chmod the /mnt/fatdrive folder
[07:05] <synic> iceman24k: exaile has a shoutcast browser.  http://binary.twi.gs/exaile.deb
[07:05] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: I'm getting your PMs, and replying, but my replies don't seem to be going through for whatever reason
[07:05] <lukaswayne9> synic: That's works fine for kernel output, but i'm getting some fsck errors
[07:05] <DanaG> MrMikey:  Hmm, I don't know what to do for that.  Is there a reason to keep using the old kernel?
[07:05] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: Is there a different client I could switch to that would make this less painful?
[07:05] <Ademan> hey is there a GNOME applet that manages your network connection?
[07:05] <asoka123> raxor: ok I will try
[07:06] <MrMikey> DanaG: It seems newer kernels don't like my motherboard, they can't use the onboard ethernet or usb. Kernel 2.6.12 is the newest I know to work.
[07:06] <DJAdmiral> MrMikey, DanaG: try getting the latest kernel headers though, and then see what happens
[07:06] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog try to pm to Annatar
[07:06] <DJAdmiral> MrMikey: ah
[07:06] <Renan_s2> !xen
[07:06] <ubotu> xen is a a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. It can be found at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/
[07:06] <MrMikey> I have 2.6.15 installed (nvidia-glx installed them, but I still booted to 2.6.12)
[07:06] <Renan_s2> Has anybody here installed Xen under Ubuntu?
[07:07] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog find the name Annatar in the list do right klick and press IM and type something there
[07:07] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: Sent. I'm receiving your messages, but you don't seem to be getting mine. Is there a different client I could switch to that would make this less painful?
[07:07] <DJAdmiral> Renan_s2: no, I use QEMU with the KQEMU accelerator though
[07:07] <DJAdmiral> Renan_s2: I can help you through the installation of that if you like
[07:07] <ThomAnnatar> no_dog if ur recieving mine ill give you my email addres (hope you have msn)
[07:07] <Renan_s2> I found on Google. :)
[07:08] <no_dog> ThomAnnatar: (I do)
[07:08] <DanaG> I wonder, can you temporarily disable the Dapper repos and add the Breezy ones?
[07:08] <finalbeta> WHen using wine. Many programs don't have a tab in the window list (flashfxp, logincontrol) , can this be fixed?
[07:09] <raxor> asoka123: you can also change that line in fstab... change defaults to rw,users
[07:09] <DARKGuy> finalbeta: maybe waiting for the next wine release, or asking the WINE developers themselves in #winehq I think
[07:10] <finalbeta> DARKGuy, ok, thnx
[07:10] <mabus> How do you make things execue on boot with ubuntu? ie: equivalent of rc-update on gentoo
[07:10] <iceman24k> ok how to get root access to plug in a xmms threme in the correct folder
[07:10] <DJAdmiral> mabus: oh hey mabus
[07:10] <DARKGuy> finalbeta: no problem. WINE is still a program in development, they are doing lots of things and such all the time, it has its issues which in time they'll be solved :)
[07:10] <DJAdmiral> mabus: how are things going?
[07:10] <mabus> DJAdmiral: Good, good.
[07:10] <DJAdmiral> mabus: got through with flubuntu and whatnot?
[07:11] <DARKGuy> iceman24k: try the sudo command. Copying a file should be easy: sudo cp source destination  :)
[07:11] <mabus> DJAdmiral: Just did a ubuntu server + LAMP + flux
[07:11] <DJAdmiral> mabus: Out of curiosity - if you ran Gentoo before, why don't you make your own distro or something?
[07:12] <DJAdmiral> mabus: I made my own distro once for learning how linux ticks
[07:12] <mabus> DJAdmiral: Hmm, maybe I should.
[07:12] <mabus> DJAdmiral: I just have so much stuff to learn... I have a membership to bitme, and more ebooks than I could read in a lifetime.
[07:12] <DJAdmiral> mabus: whatever I've done on it so far is not too impressive though. I need to mount virtual kernel filesystems via a livecd and then run it
[07:13] <mabus> DJAdmiral: It's hard to decide what to learn at any given point.
[07:13] <DJAdmiral> mabus: and then again, all my text based distro can really do at the moment is just extract bzip2 and gzip tarballs and compile C and C++ source code
[07:14] <DJAdmiral> mabus: I work on developing it every now and then. Maybe soon one day it'll have X and GNOME when it's ready.
[07:14] <DJAdmiral> mabus: or X and Xfce. or X and KDE. or X and Flux. I still don't know what to choose lol
[07:14] <DJAdmiral> mabus: Maybe I could help you out with it sometime?
[07:15] <monteiro> i've an error in my gnome-baker it says, Failed to change write speed: 5540->11080 , anyone knows how to solve this?
[07:16] <krystoff> hi there, anyone using plone ?
[07:16] <DJAdmiral> monteiro: Maybe your user permissions don't allow you to burn CDs? you might want to check
[07:16] <DJAdmiral> !info plone
[07:16] <UKMatt> does anyone know if an ipod nano will work with amarok
[07:16] <ubotu> plone: content management system based on zope and cmf. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.2-2 (dapper), package size 7 kB, installed size 40 kB
[07:16] <synic> UKMatt: it should
[07:17] <asoka123> raxor: I have changed that and then also did sudo man -a , still it is not giving permission to default user
[07:17] <monteiro> DJAdmiral : i can burn cds with gnome and burn audio cds in gnome-baker
[07:17] <UKMatt> synic, i can't get amarok to recognize it
[07:17] <asoka123> do i need to reboot
[07:17] <raxor> asoka123: sudo mount -a
[07:17] <Renan_s2> !qemu
[07:17] <ubotu> qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[07:17] <DJAdmiral> monteiro: okay, that's odd.
[07:17] <synic> UKMatt: does gtkpod work?
[07:17] <raxor> asoka123: the sudo mount -a we re-mount... no reboot needed
[07:17] <monteiro> DJAdmiral : really odd
[07:18] <UKMatt> synic, probably, i havn't tried i'd really rather use amarok b/c of podcasts and music and all is right there
[07:18] <synic> UKMatt: just trying to determine if ubuntu is seeing it at all
[07:18] <UKMatt> synic, it's mounted, the icon is on the desktop
[07:19] <killermach> I have kubuntu 6.0.6 installed, when I end session, and choose more options at the user login, I don't have gnome on the list, I have a LinuxFormat article that says I should be able to switch desktop environments, what am I missing?
[07:19] <asoka123> raxor:  yep did sudo mount -a  but still not giving me write perm.
[07:19] <raxor> hmmm, asoka123: I am not sure
[07:19] <raxor> what is the line in fstab?
[07:19] <DJAdmiral> does anyone want a simple step by step class on installing a secure Apache server with MySQL, phpMyAdmin, Perl, PHP4, PHP5, along with ProFTPD server as well as a few PHP libraries including Ming and GD?
[07:20] <itsmegb> killermach: have you install ubuntu-desktop ?
[07:20] <MrMikey> DanaG / DJAdmiral: I've got the restricted modules for my kernel installed, but now nvidia-glx wont let me force it to an older version (same version as the kernel modules). Any ideas?
[07:20] <Lynoure> killermach: did you install ubuntu-desktop?
[07:20] <asoka123> /dev/sda5	/home/arsalan/d_drv2	vfat	rw,users	0	0
[07:20] <DanaG> nvidia-glx is versioned separately from the kernel part, I believe.
[07:20] <mayckol> Hello
[07:21] <asoka123> raxor: /dev/sda5	/home/arsalan/d_drv2	vfat	rw,users	0	0
[07:21] <dangson> hello, i'm running xubuntu. how do I add commands to be run at start up?
[07:21] <raghu206> how to install xgl on intel machines
[07:21] <DJAdmiral> !xgl
[07:21] <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
[07:21] <DJAdmiral> there you go
[07:21] <MrMikey> DanaG: Well, X now complains that the kernel version is older than the nvidia-glx, so I assume I have to get the same version
[07:21] <MrMikey> Synaptic just wont let me.
[07:21] <DanaG> aah.
[07:21] <mayckol> I'm installing Ubuntu in a Optiplex GX520 and do not reconize th sata disk. Any Idea?
[07:22] <DanaG> Can you use Force Version, or is that version simply not present?
[07:22] <DanaG> Perhaps re-add the old repos.
[07:22] <DJAdmiral> mayckol: an Optiplex GX520 is a laptop? desktop?
[07:22] <iturk> my friends in firefox i can see this movie -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBwEd_g62Hk but i cannot ear any sound. What could it be the problem ??
[07:22] <DJAdmiral> iturk: try restarting X. that happens to me sometimes
[07:23] <mayckol> Is a desktop
[07:23] <DJAdmiral> mayckol: and it does not recognise the hard disk, correct?
[07:23] <mayckol> correct
[07:24] <iturk> DJAdmiral: the point is that i couldnt ear any sound from any youtube movie since i install ubunto with firefox !!
[07:24] <DJAdmiral> mayckol: do you want a dualboot system or all-out ubuntu?
[07:24] <raxor> asoka123: try changing to: /dev/sda5 /home/arsalan/d_drv2 -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8,umask=000
[07:24] <DJAdmiral> iturk: I can hear youtube movies. just try restarting X and the first thing you do is put that movie on
[07:25] <mayckol> I want all Ubuntu
[07:25] <albacker> anybody had an error reading .ogg files generated by istanbul ?
[07:26] <bluesign> anyone now good gui mysql manager for ubuntu ?
[07:26] <killermach> itsmegb: no, I'm looking in Add/remove programs and Adept, but  do not see ubuntu-desktop
[07:27] <asoka123> raxor: relogin still it is not writable to me, any idea, do i need to write rw,user instead of users
[07:27] <itsmegb> killermach: in command line sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:27] <raxor> asoka123: I am not sure... it just works for me
[07:27] <killermach> itsmegb: I can do that :) thanks
[07:28] <itsmegb> pleasure
[07:28] <raxor> now that it is mounted in your places menu GUI go to Computer...
[07:28] <dangson> i'm running xubuntu. how do I add commands to be run at start up?
[07:28] <mayckol> In the install proces just stop in the step 5 (Select a disk)
[07:28] <killermach> itsmegb: and for xubuntu, is xubuntu-destop the one I install?
[07:28] <fdoving> dangson: depends on what the commands should do really.
[07:28] <dangson> fdoving, just to start xbindkeys
[07:28] <raxor> asoka123 :you should see the folder for your mount... right click, view properties and look at the perms... what do you got?
[07:28] <DanaG> bye
[07:29] <itsmegb> killermach: yep, thats the one, however if you use aptitude instead of apt-get it make removal of the packages easier
[07:29] <Renan_s2> !info gnuplot
[07:29] <ubotu> gnuplot: A command-line driven interactive plotting program. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.0.0-2.1 (dapper), package size 1 kB, installed size 24 kB

[07:30] <iceman24k> ok, not a bad desktop so far. fairly pleased with the simplicty.
[07:30] <killermach> itsmegb: thanks.. good to know.. but this is a test-box I'm learning about unbuntu on
[07:30] <EvilIdler> My workstation refuses to run any RTL8169 cards at gigabit speeds. Anyone had this problem and solved it? Same cards I've tried work on two other computers.
[07:31] <itsmegb> killermach: ok, just my point was if you use apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop, it won't remove all of the packages installed, where as it will if you use aptitude instead
[07:31] <fdoving> dangson: then i recommend adding a script in ~/.config/autostart/ to do the job.
[07:31] <asoka123> raxor: I see owner all permissions and group and others, just read
[07:32] <raxor> me too
[07:32] <javier> cagoento poseso iba ser lo que yo disia sabe uuht?
[07:32] <dangson> fdoving, k. thanks a lot
[07:32] <sybermile> ok i got XGL working on a ati 9600 SE
[07:32] <fdoving> dangson: you're welcome.
[07:32] <iturk> I just restart X but i youtube movies still dont have sound !! Any one can help ??
[07:33] <alephant> How can I determine what version of Berkeley DB PAM's pam_userdb module expects to use?
[07:33] <asoka123> raxor: and also it is written, u r not the owner, u can not change these permissions; in owner - root is written
[07:33] <killermach> itsmegb: thank you and I will keep this in mind.. my current servers are RHEL and my workstation has been Mandrake since 2001, so I'm familiar with RPM not deb install procedures
[07:34] <sybermile> does any 1 know the commands to XGL i want to know how to throw a app to another screen??
[07:34] <raxor> hmm
[07:34] <raxor> that is not written for me
[07:34] <raxor> asoka123
[07:34] <itsmegb> killermach: well the packages ubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop etc are metapackages, they dont contain the packages, rather a list of packages to be installed
[07:34] <alephant> FYI, future search engine herders:
[07:35] <alephant> pam_userdb.so expects Berkeley DB v3 databases.
[07:35] <javier> I have a hp compaq nx7010 and is imposible to work with XGL and compiz because don't have the driver for the ati 9200 on noteboock
[07:35] <amapolas> los ke sean espaoles ke me conteste

[07:51] <PingunZ> I installed kubuntu-desktop yesterday ... Since I don't like kde I'd like to remove all its packages ... How can i do that ?
[07:52] <TheManiacKY> Is there a way to install Ubuntu Server onto a USB keychain with full read/write? I don't want a boot cd like where I can't install any new apps. I want the whole os to run from the usb stick and if I want to apt-get install somthing it'll write to the same usb stick
[07:53] <synic> TheManiacKY: you'd wear your key out pretty fast like that
[07:53] <TheManiacKY> synic: Thats okay ;)

[07:54] <TheManiacKY> UKMatt it just be seen like any other usb drive /dev/sdetc
[07:54] <PingunZ> mayckol: All packages installed by the ' sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ' command
[07:54] <ladydoor> mayckol: i thought that if you removed *buntu-desktop, it didn't automatically remove its subpackages...just made it *possible* to remove them
[07:54] <UKMatt> themaniacky, it's seen, i was just looking for a command b/c amarok isn't recognizing it
[07:54] <asoka123> ping raxor
[07:55] <TheManiacKY> oh

[08:04] <Otacon22> afm\colossus, where i can get it?
[08:05] <mayckol> I will try with Breezy, Goodbye ans thanks

[08:05] <earthian> whats wrong?
[08:06] <afm\colossus> tjb891: well, nmap scans only one of your ifaces, probably the wrong one
[08:06] <earthian> alsa*
[08:06] <afm\colossus> just check with netstat
[08:06] <afm\colossus> `pgrep cups` might give you a hint, too
[08:06] <harisund> Does anybody know of any PDA or hand held computer on which I can load Linux?
[08:06] <Otacon22> afm\colossus, where it broadcast?

[08:07] <afm\colossus> Otacon22: it uses a built-in ftp-client to upload to a ftpd of your choice
[08:07] <earthian> no sound and alsa reports that it cant write somewhere?
[08:07] <earthian> what to do?
[08:07] <Otacon22> oh no
[08:07] <Otacon22> afm\colossus, i want to broadcast video, not images
[08:07] <afm\colossus> oh, i see

[08:09] <searayman> can i have help getting firefox 2 beta 2 to work?
[08:09] <duckdown> ladydoor> I'll try that, thanks :)
[08:09] <raxor> not sure, but I can tell you how to create a group and assign it
[08:09] <ladydoor> duckdown: but i doubt it's quite what you're looking for
[08:09] <synic> duckdown: http://binary.twi.gs/exaile.deb
[08:09] <duckdown> hmm
[08:09] <raxor> asoka123: umask=0000 should mean "all"
[08:09] <synic> duckdown: http://exaile.org/screenshots/exaile.jpg
[08:10] <duckdown> synic> Awesome, thanks man
[08:10] <searayman> help with firefox 2 beta 2 please?
[08:10] <asoka123> raxor: another question , for ntfs partition, we would write ntfs in place of vfat?
[08:10] <tjb891> I have a cups server running can anyone tell me how to disable it since i am not using cups for printing?
[08:11] <raxor> asoka123: http://ubunutguide/wiki/Dapper
[08:11] <bhearsum> how do i manually suspend or hibernate my computer? i'm running xfce, not gnome, so i don't have buttons for it
[08:11] <earthian> no sound and alsa reports that it cant write somewhere?
[08:11] <earthian> what to do?
[08:11] <synic> bhearsum: echo 3>/sys/power/state
[08:11] <raxor> asoka123: I haven't had good success with ntfs write support (using ntfs-fuse)...
[08:11] <bhearsum> synic: is that for to-ram, or to-disk?
[08:11] <afm\colossus> issue `/etc/init.d/cupsys stop` @ tjb891
[08:11] <tjb891> thx
[08:11] <searayman> firefox help?
[08:12] <synic> bhearsum: uh... I think that's to disk, and 2 is ram
[08:12] <bhearsum> synic: okay
[08:12] <bhearsum> i got a 'write error' though
[08:12] <bhearsum> boo
[08:12] <earthian> !alsa
[08:12] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[08:12] <synic> bhearsum: got to sudo -i first.
[08:12] <earthian> :(
[08:13] <bhearsum> synic: no, it's not permission problems, i am root
[08:13] <weswh-> is there a way I can give myself a static IP - but DHCP everything else? (i was never able to figure that out in windows, hoping linux has a way)
[08:13] <searayman> firefox help, please?
[08:14] <harisund> weswh-: what do you mean "everything else" ?
[08:14] <raxor> asoka123, in that guide, search for ntfs... you will see how to create a gid for ntfs-- try doing the same for vfat and adding your user to the group... if you need help I can try to help
[08:14] <synic> duckdown: let me know what you think :)
[08:14] <afm\colossus> weswh-: use DHCP to obtain "everything", then adjust the interface's IP manually
[08:15] <weswh-> afm\colossus: right now i am totally dhcp, how do i adjust just my IP?
[08:16] <afm\colossus> via ifconfig or ip
[08:16] <afm\colossus> check the according manpages
[08:16] <weswh-> is there any kind of gui network tool?
[08:16] <weswh-> that is system standard?
[08:16] <weswh-> ah, i found it
[08:16] <weswh-> i was looking under 'settings'

[08:33] <MrMikey> Hey, I need to install nvidia-glx 1.0.76667 (breezy's version) on dapper, but synaptic wont let me because of an unresolvable dependancy, xserver-common. What does this mean?
[08:33] <M0nk3Ee> are you dcc'ing it or pasting it to a bot?
[08:33] <asoka123> brb
[08:33] <janbanan> Is it possible to customize amarok in gnome?
[08:33] <ladydoor> M0nk3Ee: i'm pasting what's inside it to pastebin. what is dcc?
[08:33] <gnomefreak> MrMikey: why do you need breezys version?
[08:33] <bhearsum> my laptop has suspend installed by default, my desktop doesn't. how do i enable suspend mode for my desktop?

[08:34] <ladydoor> sorry
[08:34] <ladydoor> wrong paste button :-(
[08:34] <gnomefreak> ladydoor: use pastebin
[08:34] <MrMikey> gnomefreak, because I'm using Breezy's 2.6.12 kernel, because my motherboard doesn't work with dapper's kernel
[08:34] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: i know. that's what i just pasted to there...
[08:34] <dantrag> hi...i have a question...im trying to install ubuntu, and during the start up process it crashes to shell saying it cant start X....any ideas?
[08:34] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: i just hit the wrong paste key and pasted my screen buffer instead of the x buffer :-(
[08:34] <MrMikey> So, I gotta get the nvidia module for the kernel I use, and that wants the same version of nvidia-glx. It's a pain =(
[08:34] <gnomefreak> MrMikey: than your gonna have to download it from packages.ubuntu.com
[08:34] <ladydoor> M0nk3Ee: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22258
[08:35] <MrMikey> Right
[08:35] <MrMikey> Thanks :)
[08:35] <HBK> hello
[08:35] <HBK> I still can't get Ubuntu to work
[08:35] <MrMikey> gnomefreak, I do too =(
[08:36] <MrMikey> I'm wondering whether getting nvidia-glx is worth it.
[08:36] <Go_Dawgs> my goodness its crowded in here...  i have but one question about ubuntu, i'm running the runtime ver now and its soo slow that i came here on another box to ask does it support mp3 or do i need to chase down codecs??  TIA!
[08:36] <gnomefreak> what about the kernel doesnt work?
[08:36] <HBK> Ubuntu can't install from the CD...when it goes to convert the file system to ext3 it goes to 15% and gives an error saying can't convert file system
[08:36] <HBK> I installed Kubuntu that installed fine no problems in there
[08:36] <stefg> Hi, does anyone happen to know how to tell apt (or whoever is responsible for that) that my root partition is now hda1. Friggin' configure scripts keep on busting /boot/grub/menu.lst because i originally installed to hda2, but had to shift partitions afterwards.
[08:36] <ladydoor> Go_Dawgs: TIA? and it's *fairly* simple to install mp3 codices
[08:36] <ladydoor> !codec > Go_Dawgs
[08:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:36] <gnomefreak> HBK: are you using the 6.06.1 iso?
[08:36] <ladydoor> !codex > Go_Dawgs
[08:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codex - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:36] <MrMikey> gnomefreak, it doesn't like the pci stuff, so that means my onboard ethernet doesn't work, and it doesn't set up the usb
[08:37] <Go_Dawgs> Thanks In Advance
[08:37] <MrMikey> So basically it doesn't like my motherboard atall
[08:37] <ladydoor> !codecs > Go_Dawgs
[08:37] <HBK> but I don't want Kubuntu so I gave this command in the terminal "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[08:37] <Go_Dawgs> !codecs

[08:37] <HBK> but then it says E: can't find ubuntu package
[08:37] <MrMikey> It's not just ubuntu, it seems to be any kernel newer than 2.6.12

[08:37] <ladydoor> Go_Dawgs: i just sent that to you

[08:48] <FurryNemesis> yes
[08:48] <stefg> How can i prevent update-grub ( and all other related things like kernel-updates) to write a _wrong_ /boot/grub/menu.lst? Somewhere the system remembered that i originally installed to hda2, but now it's on hda1. which file is responsible for that?
[08:48] <searayman> gnomefreak:  what link?
[08:48] <HBK> I don't have fast connection it keeps on disconnecting is there a torrent link?

[08:56] <janbanan> How do I change the icon on the trash-bin. Not the whole theme. just the icon. Are all current icons stored somewhere so I can replace it easily?
[08:57] <gnomefreak> janbanan: i think the trash icon is part of the themes icon in gnome
[08:57] <ara> there's no xorg devel package for ubuntu ? something like xorg-x11-sdk ?
[08:57] <gnomefreak> janbanan: or right clicking it than going to properties would let you change it
[08:57] <gnomefreak> ara: apt-cache search xorg
[08:58] <gnomefreak> ara: there are -devel packages there
[08:58] <janbanan> gnomefreak: Can you change yours by right-click. I can't
[08:58] <gnomefreak> nope

[09:00] <gnomefreak> ara: i see a bunch of them
[09:01] <gnomefreak> ara: what one do you need?
[09:01] <ara> something like xorg-x11-sdk for suse, not sure of the name. I just want the basic dev files
[09:01] <ara> i've already isntalled x-dev but seems that's not it
[09:01] <gnomefreak> libx11-dev

[09:02] <ara> eh software development kit

[09:02] <oyvind> I'm having a terrible lag in sounds. This happens in various alsa applications. The game "Tremulous" is totally unplayable because of this.. Is it because of some default dmix settings used ? Is it a known issue ?
[09:04] <HBK> is there any speed difference in the 64-bit version and 32-bit version?
[09:04] <HBK> Also will the 32-bit version run on amd64 processor?

[09:06] <holycow> Anyone had problems accessing a samba share served on dapper?
[09:07] <davin> When I try to install kubuntu-desktop, it tells me half-way through that it neems some language-common, when I try to install that it tells me to get another package, when I install that package it tells me its deleting ubuntu-desktop and other gnome sutff, but I want to keep both

[09:07] <silly> Are some of the repo's down ?
[09:07] <regeya> guh.
[09:07] <HBK> davin! hello again!
[09:08] <davin> HBK: hey mate, did it work out?
[09:08] <HBK> davin that didn't work I get this error saying E:cannot find Ubuntu package
[09:08] <davin> HBK: did you enable multiverse and universe repositories?
[09:08] <HBK> No I did not
[09:09] <davin> HBK: try it
[09:09] <HBK> I removed all the KDE packages from the Adept installer it still didn't work
[09:09] <davin> HBK: where are you now?
[09:09] <davin> HBK: on KDE?
[09:10] <HBK> nope winblows lol
[09:10] <gnomefreak> !repos
[09:10] <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
[09:10] <gnomefreak> HBK: ^^^ read that
[09:10] <HBK> You can enable the universe component by editing the file "/etc/apt/sources.list" after installing Ubuntu - which file do I edit but?
[09:10] <gnomefreak> you are not listening
[09:10] <gnomefreak> you cant fix ubuntu from windows
[09:10] <HBK> I know that lol
[09:11] <gnomefreak> HBK: the file /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:11] <HBK> My net connection doesn't work in kubuntu
[09:11] <rillian> updating to edgy seems to have deleted my xorg.conf. is there something I can type to generate a new one?
[09:11] <ladydoor> hey, how do i take something out of the background? i accidentally hit C-x C-z while running emacs & now it's backgrounded...
[09:11] <HBK> where do I give that command in the "terminal window"
[09:11] <gnomefreak> rillian: join #ubuntu+1
[09:11] <davin> HBK: what do you mean?
[09:12] <gnomefreak> HBK: in a terminal window
[09:12] <silly> is security.ubuntu.com slow / not responding to anyone else ?
[09:12] <bmrtin> i just upgraded my video card to a nvidia 7300 gs and not the highest resolution i can get is 1024x768 is this a comman problem or did i f something up
[09:12] <ladydoor> HBK: the file is /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:12] <gnomefreak> HBK: in kubuntu open a terminal and edit that file
[09:12] <rillian> gnomefreak: ta
[09:12] <davin> HBK: sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:12] <HBK> I just type that in the terminal window and it will do it?
[09:12] <ladydoor> HBK: for example, you might type "sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:12] <ladydoor> "
[09:12] <davin> or nano
[09:12] <ladydoor> HBK: it's better to use gksudo with a graphikal app than to use sudo
[09:12] <earthian> could someone guide me in PM how to make my soundcard work?
[09:13] <earthian> or even here if its easier for you :)
[09:13] <ladydoor> silly: i didn't have a problem
[09:13] <gnomefreak> !sound
[09:13] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[09:13] <davin> ladydoor: whats nano -w?
[09:13] <earthian> gnomefreak: i tried it and it did not help :(
[09:13] <ladydoor> earthian: it's better to have a conversation out here, as others can help troubleshoot :-)
[09:13] <gnomefreak> earthian: read taht first make sure you have hit the important things
[09:13] <holycow> !samba
[09:13] <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
[09:13] <ladydoor> davin: nano is a user-friendly console text-editor with keybinding hints at the bottom
[09:13] <earthian> gnomefreak: i tried it and it did not help :( <<<
[09:14] <davin> ladydoor: i know what nano is, but what is -w?
[09:14] <ladydoor> davin: the -w option makes it not break lines of code
[09:14] <earthian> it finds my sound card then it does not find.. i am lost :o
[09:14] <davin> ladydoor: okay thanks, im trying to learn all these suffixes you see ;] 
[09:14] <HBK> ok I will give this command in the terimanl window please read - "sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list" is that correct?
[09:14] <ladydoor> davin: sweet :-)
[09:14] <earthian> where i should start looking for a solution?
[09:14] <ladydoor> HBK: use "gksudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list" instead
[09:14] <earthian> logs?
[09:14] <earthian> where it should be?
[09:14] <davin> ladydoor: another noob question, whats gksudo?
[09:15] <HBK> and I enable Universal Components in that, ok?
[09:15] <earthian> !gksudo
[09:15] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use gksudo, as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using sudo {guiapp}
[09:15] <Cloudo> Is there any good program for unpacking .rar files?
[09:15] <gnomefreak> ladydoor: kdesu
[09:15] <ladydoor> davin: np :-). gksudo is the same as sudo, basically, except that it's a graphikal front-end
[09:15] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: oh, really? huh. thanks
[09:15] <davin> ladydoor: ah sweet
[09:15] <HBK> then I open up terminal window and give this command - sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop - is that ok?
[09:15] <gnomefreak> ladydoor: qt apps use kdesu gtk apps use gksudo
[09:16] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: ah, sweet
[09:16] <gnomefreak> HBK: sudo apt-get update
[09:16] <ladydoor> HBK: please use kdesu instead!
[09:16] <earthian> gnomefreak: could you help me with that issue regarding sound?
[09:16] <earthian> :)
[09:16] <gnomefreak> HBK: than sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[09:16] <gnomefreak> earthian: i could but im not that good with sound
[09:16] <HBK> Yes ok I will do that
[09:16] <ladydoor> HBK: oh wait
[09:16] <ladydoor> HBK: nm, use sudo for that one. lol
[09:16] <HBK> ladydoor plz help! lol
[09:17] <Cloudo> Is there any good program for unpacking .rar files?
[09:17] <ladydoor> HBK: i'm sorry. i was reading up and got a little confused. ignore me for a minute
[09:17] <ladydoor> Cloudo: unrar
[09:17] <HBK> ladydoor can I PM you? I will tell u the command I will type u see if it's ok?
[09:17] <earthian> well.. my sound thing is integrated in MSI K8T Master2-FAR
[09:17] <ladydoor> HBK: your command is fine :-)
[09:17] <ladydoor> HBK: you've got it right
[09:17] <HBK> no the first command plz
[09:17] <ladydoor> HBK: kdesu /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:17] <Cloudo> ladydoor, can't find it.
[09:17] <ladydoor> HBK: wait
[09:18] <earthian> when i boot and when there is the login screen (i think its GDM) i get sounds here and there.. when i log in to my session everything goes silent.
[09:18] <ladydoor> HBK: kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:18] <ladydoor> HBK: as i said, i'm a li'l confused :-)
[09:18] <ladydoor> Cloudo: are your multiverse repositories enabled?
[09:18] <ladydoor> !unrar
[09:18] <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
[09:18] <earthian> alsa says that it cant write soemwhere something, volume sais that there are no plugins.. alsa-utils says that there is no sound card
[09:19] <earthian> i am lost :S
[09:19] <earthian> u read it? :)
[09:19] <HBK> ladydoor plz pm plz!!
[09:19] <ladydoor> HBK: why? your command is fine
[09:19] <ladydoor> HBK: and gnomefreak is better to listen to
[09:19] <ladydoor> HBK: i promise
[09:19] <kozmic> are there any decent bittorrent client except Azureus for linux? (with all torrents in one window)
[09:19] <ladydoor> kozmic: bittornado has a launch-many option
[09:19] <gnomefreak> ladydoor: hes not and im done with him have at it
[09:19] <Cloudo> ladydoor, yes it is
[09:20] <davin> kozmic: bittornado?
[09:20] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: he's not what?
[09:20] <HBK> ok lady door I give this command in terminal window - sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list and enable the universe component. then I open terminal window again and type sudo apt-get install Ubuntu-desktop
[09:20] <kozmic> hmm, ill give it a shot. thank you davin
[09:20] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: :-)
[09:20] <gnomefreak> ladydoor: listening
[09:20] <PingunZ> Is anyone else here having troubles with Apport ?
[09:20] <HBK> is that correct? ladydoor?
[09:20] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: aha.
[09:20] <davin> kozmic: welcome mate
[09:20] <ladydoor> HBK: that's almost correct. please replace "sudo" with kdesu. otherwise you're doing fine
[09:21] <HBK> ok
[09:21] <gnomefreak> HBK: you need to save than close it than run sudo apt-get update than sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop but if your internet isnt workjing all that work is usless
[09:21] <Cloudo> ladydoor, worked now, was some updating that needed to be done. tnx anyways
[09:21] <HBK> No internet doesn't work
[09:21] <earthian> how do i reinstall particular parts of ubuntu system?
[09:21] <HBK> why do I need to update, but?
[09:21] <earthian> for example all video/sound part
[09:21] <earthian> ?
[09:22] <HBK> it's already in there isn't it?
[09:22] <gnomefreak> HBK: apt-get isnt gonna help you you need to give us background on your nic card router errors it gives what you have tried
[09:22] <ladydoor> HBK: updating will tell apt-get to look at the latest repositories
[09:22] <ladydoor> HBK: but you need internet to do that, as gnomefreak said
[09:22] <gnomefreak> ladydoor: his net dont work
[09:22] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: :-(
[09:22] <HBK> gnomefreak I have gprs connection with nokia 6101 data cable
[09:23] <gnomefreak> if he would listen the first time i tell him these things we wouldnt be here
[09:23] <pianoboy3333> How do you tell wget to download a file into a certain directory? such as /tmp?
[09:23] <earthian> !wget
[09:23] <ladydoor> gnomefreak: lol. that seems to be a persistent problem around here, haha
[09:23] <pianoboy3333> ok...
[09:23] <ubotu> wget: retrieves files from the web. In component main, is standard. Version 1.10.2-1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 225 kB, installed size 1952 kB
[09:23] <pianoboy3333> thanks
[09:23] <HBK> I have the latest Kubuntu 6.06 LTS. isn't that ok? why do I need update then?
[09:23] <earthian> thats not the thing
[09:23] <gnomefreak> couold have just cd'ed into the folder you want the download to go
[09:24] <earthian> i expeced some link :p
[09:24] <earthian> expected*
[09:24] <gnomefreak> HBK: you can not apt get anything that is not on the cd without a net connection
[09:24] <gnomefreak> HBK: what nic card do you have
[09:24] <earthian> try "man wget" in terminal
[09:24] <ladydoor> HBK: packages are updated all the time. apt-get update tells apt to look into the repos for new packages and for updates
[09:24] <gnomefreak> HBK: is it wireless or wired
[09:24] <ladydoor> earthian: he's gone
[09:24] <earthian> \o/ and i am not alone
[09:25] <ladydoor> HBK: if you don't do that, apt will not know that universe is enabled. but again you need internet for it to do anything
[09:25] <HBK> it is cell phone modem! my phone line is dead or I would've done that
[09:25] <ladydoor> earthian: lol
[09:25] <gnomefreak> HBK: you are working yourself into a very very long weekend
[09:25] <earthian> HBK: i believe you can enable universe repositories in synaptic.. it will update the sources list automatically
[09:25] <bartek> hello
[09:25] <earthian> right ladydoor ?
[09:25] <earthian> :)
[09:26] <ladydoor> earthian: no internet on that computer. and he's already updated his sources.list
[09:26] <fyrestrtr> no, you have to hit refresh
[09:26] <earthian> ok.. so he is stuck
[09:26] <ladydoor> earthian: but thank you :-)
[09:26] <bartek> can someone give me a hint and tell a program name which has GUI and is able to record multisession DVDRW ?
[09:26] <HBK> Yes I know gnomefreak I've been sitting all day since morning and it's 1 am now!
[09:26] <fyrestrtr> k3b
[09:26] <earthian> HBK: wait until u get inet connection then apt-get everything
[09:26] <fyrestrtr> bartek: k3b
[09:27] <earthian> or you could try to set up some magical connection to your gprs enabled phone?
[09:27] <HBK> Okay so what if I just download that Ubuntu again? that will work then won't it...no hassles with commands etc.
[09:27] <bartek> fyrestrtr: thanks a million :)
[09:27] <HBK> that CD is crappy I think of ubuntu that's why it doesn't install and kubuntu does
[09:27] <earthian> HBK: "download" and "no internet" does not sound very good in one sentence :S
[09:28] <HBK> my gprs works in windoze lol
[09:28] <earthian> ah
[09:28] <earthian> hmm
[09:28] <ladydoor> HBK: ok...reinstalling *won't* automatically install the program you're trying to get
[09:28] <HBK> So I will put this Ubuntu to download for the night then
[09:28] <lostinc> I am looking through all the services that are listed as running on my laptop. Is there a list of what they do? I mean do I really need to have logging with both sysklogd and klogd? Ect?
[09:28] <ladydoor> HBK: you'll need to go through all this again
[09:28] <ladydoor> HBK: to enable universe...and you probably still won't have internet
[09:29] <fyrestrtr> klogd is not the same as syslogd
[09:29] <Madpilot> hi gnomefreak - what did I do to deserve that? ;)
[09:29] <HBK> No why but? See I have 2 cd's one of Ubuntu and one of Kubuntu. the ubuntu cd doesn't boot. the kubuntu one does. So I installed kubuntu but to convert it to ubuntu u need net connection
[09:29] <fyrestrtr> lostinc: install bum :)
[09:29] <gnomefreak> you came in as im leaving
[09:29] <earthian> HBK: i would suggest googling for some info on setting up internet access with gprs on debian
[09:29] <earthian> same problem was with my adsl on ubuntu livecd
[09:29] <gnomefreak> Madpilot: HBK is borderline troll but he really does need help

[09:31] <bartek> this channel is great :D thanks for help!
[09:31] <gnomefreak> HBK: will not fix your net issues
[09:31] <ladydoor> earthian: :-)
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> HBK: if you already have a ubuntu cd, just pop it in, and install packages from that.
[09:31] <lostinc> Is there any point to the PCMCIA when I dont have a PCMCIA card?
[09:32] <HBK> My Ubuntu CD doesn't boot it's bad.
[09:32] <gnomefreak> HBK: you need to figure out how to use ubuntu with a cell phone modem (btw i dont recommend that one)
[09:32] <fyrestrtr> yes, if you ever insert one, nothing will work.
[09:32] <ladydoor> does anybody know how how to use job control? i accitentally backgrounded a process with C-z but forget how to re-foreground it
[09:32] <seBBex> hi, could anybody help me with aMSN or Mercury?
[09:32] <lostinc> I dont have nor can i forsee the use of a PCMCIA card so shutting it dowm should give me some RAM back then/
[09:32] <HBK> gnomefreak why do I need net if I get a new ubuntu? it will install won't it?
[09:32] <j-rock> ladydoor: fg
[09:32] <lostinc> ?

[09:34] <HBK> Yes that's what I am asking
[09:34] <earthian> but you said that your cd does not boot?
[09:34] <Subhuman> seBBex, i could with mercury
[09:34] <fyrestrtr> seBBex: please don't repeat every minute
[09:34] <Subhuman> whats up
[09:34] <fyrestrtr> !anyone > seBBex
[09:34] <HBK> Yes so I will download the iso from the site earthian now
[09:34] <earthian> ok :)
[09:34] <HBK> then burn it and install thru the burnt cd. I don't need net connection then, do I?
[09:35] <earthian> btw i would recommend to check md5sum before burninng it
[09:35] <earthian> no you dont
[09:35] <HBK> how do you do that? check md5?
[09:35] <earthian> but if you will want anything else that is not on that cd you will need interner
[09:35] <earthian> internet
[09:35] <HBK> I just want Ubuntu nothing else.
[09:36] <mla> Hello
[09:36] <earthian> i think there is some info on how to check md5 of the iso you download somewhere on that download site
[09:36] <KenSentMe> What is the best way to view my Ubuntu Ext3 partitions in Windows XP (i'm on dual boot Windows XP and need to access some files on Ubuntu)
[09:36] <ladydoor> !md5
[09:36] <ubotu> To mount an .iso image: sudo mount -o loop my.iso /some/mountpoint - bin/cue can be converted to iso with bchunk  .iso images of Ubuntu CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com Always verify the .iso before burning, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[09:36] <HBK> ok thanks very much earthian!
[09:36] <earthian> np ;)
[09:37] <HBK> Just one more thing which version do I download lol 32-bit or 64-bit? I have two computers one is athlon xp and one is athlon 64. Is there any difference in speed in 32 and 64 bit?
[09:37] <JKing> I'm trying to install Windows to dual-boot, but I don't seem to be able to boot the Windows CD.  I know it's bootable, but GRUB seems to take precedence.  Is there anything in particular I should do?  The wiki was not helpful. :(
[09:37] <ladydoor> JKing: is your BIOS set up to boot from cd?
[09:38] <mjr> HBK, there is a small speed advantage to 64-bit amd64 code
[09:38] <afm\colossus> JKing: that's the job of your system BIOS then
[09:38] <JKing> Yes.  I can boot GParted, for example.
[09:38] <mjr> HBK, the downside, if you choose to view it as such, is that it may be more difficult to get some proprietary software working
[09:39] <HBK> but that 32-bit will work in athlon 64 and athlon xp? correct?
[09:39] <earthian> HBK: go for 32bit
[09:39] <earthian> remember that amd64 is x86_64 arhc
[09:39] <HBK> Yes ok I will torrent up 32 bit
[09:39] <earthian> arch*
[09:39] <HBK> i386 is 32-bit right?
[09:39] <earthian> i made a mistake and went for x64 :/
[09:40] <earthian> HBK: i386 or i686 i think
[09:40] <HBK> ubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso.torrent  - that's the one isn't it?
[09:40] <earthian> both are 32bit
[09:40] <earthian> ^^
[09:40] <HBK> there is no 686 version
[09:40] <earthian> and i think it is not alternate
[09:40] <earthian> well get i386 then
[09:41] <HBK> only 386
[09:41] <earthian> you will be able to upgrade later for your processor
[09:41] <HBK> what does alternate mean, like? there is no live cd in it?
[09:41] <fyrestrtr> !alternate
[09:41] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-installation CD, with no live session. Use this if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an expert install.
[09:42] <mla> Hello

[09:45] <ladydoor> HBK: no problem. good luck.
[09:45] <JKing> (hence why I am very mystified by this.  I had booted the same disc without incident before installing Ubuntu)
[09:46] <ladydoor> mla: i'm sorry, it seems to be in french...you might check out #ubuntu-fr for somebody who could give you proper native-language support :-(
[09:46] <mla> ladydoor: thanks
[09:47] <ladydoor> mla: np. good luck!
[09:47] <mla> Do you know in which package is language-selector ?

[10:00] <DigiTalk> @Jack: not yet. I searched for a howto, but only got howtos for other distris. (I didn't think about ubuntu.com - shame on me)
[10:00] <DigiTalk> I will try to follow the howto and tell you if I got it up and running, thanx!
[10:01] <npster> Madpilot: I know. But I just want stickers. I know that they give u 4 stickers with a CD.
[10:01] <no_dog> My sound is not working at all. I'm new to linux, and not quite sure where to start looking. Would anyone mind helping me out?
[10:01] <npster> Madpilot: Can I ask Cannonical/Canonical

[10:07] <NemesisUK> oferw, is the wireless mentioned in any of the lines
[10:08] <oferw> NemesisUK: no

[10:08] <NemesisUK> try booting with it plugged and do lsusb again
[10:08] <oferw> mabye this is it?
[10:08] <earthian> btw nothing from http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=sound+alsa+plugins helped me!!!!!!!!!!
[10:09] <oferw> NemesisUK: what it should be written there
[10:09] <no_dog> fyrestrtr: The directions that !sound sends me points to a menu item which does not exist. I will read up on some of the links I have been send, though
[10:09] <ladydoor> no_dog: it's best to wait a little while, at least. quick repeating only frustrates people who might try to help you :-). as to your specific question, i'm afriad i'm not sure what to tell you
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> no_dog: also see !alsa
[10:09] <Tehcarp> anyone here work on Linux and can tell me where the libraries are in it's installer?
[10:09] <NemesisUK> oferw, you'll know when you see it, it'll tell what usb devices are connected and your wireless adapter will appear in the list
[10:09] <fyrestrtr> !alsa > no_dog
[10:10] <arnnnn> how do I use heimdal-clients ?
[10:10] <oferw> NemesisUK: ok restarting
[10:10] <ladydoor> Tehcarp: which libraries? you might look in /usr/lib
[10:10] <ompaul> !sound > earthian
[10:10] <fyrestrtr> Tehcarp: installer for what? the kernel itself?
[10:10] <arnnnn> I want to do kerberized telnet using heimdal, but I can' find any docs
[10:10] <Tehcarp> for activex
[10:10] <no_dog> fyrestrtr: !sound and !alsa are the same thing ;)
[10:11] <earthian> ompaul: its not working from there
[10:11] <Tehcarp> I have this very janky ActiveX thing I need to install for Wine
[10:11] <Hyakutaro> hey folks how's it going?
[10:11] <fyrestrtr> Tehcarp: activex is windows technology, to support it, you need a windows compatibility layer (like wine) or a virtual machine (like vmplayer)
[10:11] <Tehcarp> yes I am well aware
[10:11] <oferw> NemesisUK: nothing in the list
[10:11] <Tehcarp> but I still have to know where it puts those file so that in wine, I know what I need to fix the thing
[10:11] <fyrestrtr> Tehcarp: move it to ~/.wine/c_drive/Windows/System/ -- then use regserv to register the dll
[10:12] <Doodluv> vicmic: is ubunut installer dying on you or something
[10:12] <Tehcarp> move which
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> Tehcarp: the .dll file for the control
[10:12] <Tehcarp> the controller or firefox?
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> !dmix
[10:12] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[10:12] <Tehcarp> Is that all it is? the sound?
[10:12] <oferw> NemesisUK: but when I take it out and plug it again there is new line
[10:12] <Tehcarp> well then maybe I will just murder the sound...
[10:12] <ompaul> Tehcarp, sudo apt-get install wine and check out www.winehq.org for info on how to get it to work
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> Tehcarp: you want to view activex content, in the firefox that runs in ubuntu?
[10:13] <Tehcarp> no in the Wine firefox...
[10:13] <oferw> NemesisUK: with bus 002 silicon intergrated systems
[10:13] <Hyakutaro> why the heck would you want ActiveX?
[10:13] <oferw> so probbly this is
[10:13] <Hyakutaro> Firefox on Windows doesn't have this...
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> Tehcarp: firefox doesn't support activex
[10:13] <oferw> NemesisUK: so now how do i make it run as internet modem?
[10:13] <Hyakutaro> exactly
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> Tehcarp: install IE
[10:13] <ompaul> lurkan-comiendo, please stop changing your nick thanks
[10:13] <Hyakutaro> IE... >_<
[10:14] <Hyakutaro> no ... there must be another solution
[10:14] <afm\colossus> anyone in here with a resolution of 1600 or higher horizontally whos willing to make a screenshot of a webpage for me?
[10:14] <Tehcarp> yeah that was what I was thinking
[10:14] <Tehcarp> what does D3D do anyway? is it just sound?
[10:14] <Hyakutaro> sorry colossus... 1280x1024 here
[10:14] <Zambezi> Anyone know where I can find the configurationfile to Links2-textmode?
[10:14] <maxblack> yeah... me too  1280x1024
[10:14] <afm\colossus> i'm on 1280x960 myself here :\
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> there is another solution, that you install a 'shell' runner for activex, but if the control uses the browser's controls, you'll need to install the IE libraries -- and if you are going to do that, might as well install IE
[10:15] <Hyakutaro> I would like to have 1680x1024 :P

[10:32] <gfxstyler> :P
[10:32] <Lars_G> !ff
[10:32] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins

[10:32] <sebastian929> can someone please help me with my ati radeon card?
[10:32] <Byan> I'm not on the network yet....
[10:33] <npster> Lars_G: Only PalmOS ?
[10:33] <gfxstyler> Byan: could you post your /etc/apt/sources.list     (on pastebin.ca for example, but not in this irc channel)
[10:33] <iqon> muhammad, it still won't let me use <ctrl> and <alt> together
[10:33] <Lars_G> npster: yes
[10:33] <dougsko> anyone here set up a unix router before?
[10:33] <gfxstyler> sebastian929: whats the problem?
[10:33] <MaxBrains> Hi. I've got a Ubuntu Desktop CD that I can't seem to use because I get the following dialog: "Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?" And then a terminal pops up on the same console so I can't view that output.
[10:33] <Lars_G> npster: Is your device WinCE based?
[10:33] <gfxstyler> sebastian929: what card do you have?
[10:33] <Byan> gfxstyler: how do I read that?
[10:33] <gfxstyler> Byan: cat /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:33] <Byan> <- complete noob
[10:33] <npster> Lars_G: Yes, actually Windows Mobile 5.0
 preferences > keyboard >layout options  and choose  group shift/lock behavior and then scroll down the choose ctrl+alt changes group then lol
[10:34] <Byan> no such file or directory...
[10:34] <iqon> muhammad, i did that :)
[10:34] <Lars_G> npster: There's a package for it. one second let me find the name
[10:34] <npster> Lars_G: How do I sync it without ActiveSync
 so u still have the problem ?
[10:34] <iqon> muhammad, i end up with "<Control>ISO_Next_Group" in keyboard shortcuts
[10:34] <Lars_G> npster: wait
[10:34] <Byan> it's spelled right too...
[10:34] <Byan> how come I can't cd /ect ?
[10:34] <npster> okok
[10:35] <iqon> Byan, because it's /etc
[10:35] <muhammad> iqon just go for keyboard
[10:35] <muhammad> not keyboard shortcuts
[10:35] <leo^> there was an alternative skype program. what was its name?

[10:36] <Byan> >_<
[10:36] <lens> does anyone know enough about Wine to tell me why it has this really strange font you can't read?
[10:36] <muhammad> and choose  group shift/lock behavior and then scroll down the choose alt+ctrl changes group then
[10:36] <Lars_G> npster: this can help: http://synce.sourceforge.net/synce/
[10:37] <npster> lens: No, what?
 choose  group shift/lock behavior and then scroll down the choose alt+ctrl changes group
[10:37] <iqon> muhammad, ok, i've done that
[10:37] <Lars_G> npster: this can help too http://multisync.sourceforge.net/
[10:37] <tjb> Can I delete the xorg.conf in my home directory?
[10:38] <lens> npster - the font on wine (and any program under it) has an unreadable font.
[10:38] <Byan> anyone want to help me figure out wht cat /ect/apt/sources.list giving me a no such file or directory?>
[10:38] <Byan> why*
[10:38] <npster> Lars_G: I am one of these: Attention Windows Mobile 2005 device owners!

[10:38] <Lars_G> npster: Sorry but there's nothing else I know about
[10:38] <iqon> i still can't use a <ctrl><alt>L combination in keyboard shortcuts
[10:39] <npster> Lars_G: OK
[10:39] <lens> well, it's english... I mean, it's hard to explain, you can sorta read it... it's english... it's just really mangled... unusable.

[10:43] <Doodluv> Byan: whas ur problem?
[10:43] <no_dog> Can anyone recommend a linux hardware profiler?
[10:43] <Xcalibur> hey
[10:43] <spuddogg> hello everyone
[10:43] <harisund> hello spuddogg
[10:43] <Byan> Doodluv: I just install ubuntu server AMD64.. and I have no idea what I need to do next.. network doesn't seem to be working thoug
[10:44] <spuddogg> ubuntu rocks...i cant believe how smooth and nice Dapper Drake is
[10:44] <Xcalibur> i'm using Kubuntu, but noone there is helping me figure out what media player i need to install, i have the newest Java, and flashplayer, but I need a media player
[10:44] <John[1] > I wish I could get the desktop working in dapper!!!!
[10:44] <NthDegree> Xcalibur, try mplayer
[10:44] <npster> spuddogg: Really
[10:44] <afm\colossus> Xcalibur: a media player for what type of media?
[10:44] <Xcalibur> i mean for break.com
[10:44] <Xcalibur> srry, i forgot to mention that
[10:45] <spuddogg> npster, you sound sarcastic
[10:45] <MetaMorfoziS> jocakat
[10:45] <Doodluv> Byan: not to sound mean but what do you want it to do
[10:45] <NthDegree> Xcalibur, go get flash player for linux
[10:45] <Xcalibur> i have flashplayer 7 for linux
[10:45] <NthDegree> then what is the problem?
[10:45] <Xcalibur> but i want to play media on that site
[10:46] <Xcalibur> it says i can't
[10:46] <npster> spuddogg: Sorry, I was :) I am just a little nervous Sorry again
[10:46] <afm\colossus> well, then you can't
[10:46] <Xcalibur> I'm using opera
[10:46] <afm\colossus> bug macromedia about releasing a more recent version
[10:46] <skavenge> welcome to flash in linux! ;)
[10:46] <spuddogg> npster, lol...having problems?
[10:46] <afm\colossus> flash sucks
[10:46] <NthDegree> Xcalibur, try something normal like firefox
[10:46] <afm\colossus> it's worse than cancer, anyway
[10:46] <NthDegree> opera is closed source AFAIK so most of it's features suck in linux
[10:47] <skavenge> first quarter 07 they -claim- 9 will be out
[10:47] <Xcalibur> well, I DL'ed firefox, but i cant install it
[10:47] <spuddogg> Xcalibur, firefox should have been included in your distro
[10:47] <Xcalibur> and the one in adept, says BREAK(install) when I tried
[10:47] <afm\colossus> Xcalibur: you have a package manager. use it.
[10:47] <Xcalibur> to install it
[10:47] <minerale> I'm having a perplexing problem: all the windows seem to have a huge font, this includes emacs etc how do I set the default font size for x programs ?
[10:47] <Doodluv> Xcalibur; you should just sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox, but its probably already installed
[10:47] <DigiTalk> @JackMacOKC: It works, thanx very much!
[10:47] <Xcalibur> ok?
[10:48] <skizzo> minerale:  system/preferences/font might be a good place to start
[10:48] <spuddogg> nick SpudDogg
[10:48] <Darko> i added 64 new fonts today yay :)
[10:48] <John[1] > Could someone help me one on one to get desktop installed in dapper?
[10:48] <Xcalibur> can somone lend the pastebin link?
[10:48] <NthDegree> Xcalibur is using Kubuntu not Ubuntu i think
[10:48] <finalbeta_> !nfo
[10:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nfo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:49] <SpudDogg> John[1]  what do you mean by that?
[10:49] <Xcalibur> !pastebin
[10:49] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[10:49] <finalbeta_> someone can tell me what program I can use to view .nfo ?
[10:49] <afm\colossus> finalbeta_: any editor
[10:49] <Doodluv> finalbeta_: a texteditor
[10:49] <NthDegree> Xcalibur, try #kubuntu since this ubuntu support not kubuntu (assuming you use kubuntu)
[10:49] <skizzo> finalbeta_:  they're typically text files, so you can use any text editor
[10:50] <npster> SpudDogg: Not really. I am just being tired that everything connected to Windows has to stay Windows in order to work
[10:50] <skavenge> if it requires more than flash 7 its not going to work no matter what
[10:50] <Jambon> would anyone here know much about running computers together? I have 3 old computers at my disposal right now (667 mhz, 400mhz, and 300 mhz) and I was wondering if it would be possible to have them set up to run a 2 screen 3 computer set up in dapper?
[10:50] <John[1] > I wnat to install the desktop on dapper and I would like to get some one on one chat to do this.
[10:50] <skavenge> unless you install with wine etc
[10:50] <SpudDogg> npster: and that's why we're all here :) :)
[10:50] <Xcalibur> look here plz? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22269
[10:50] <Byan> wow..
[10:51] <Ambimom> I've just installed utorrent and it works with wine, but does the RSS feed work?  Mine doesn't?
[10:51] <Byan> I am a moron..
[10:51] <Byan> ect != etc
[10:51] <SpudDogg> John[1] , I guess I cannot help you as I have no idea what you mean by install the desktop...
[10:51] <afm\colossus> yeah that makes perfect sense
[10:51] <Doodluv> Byan: <tab> is your friend
[10:51] <Xcalibur> I'm gonna go back to kubuntu and hope that somone there helps me...
[10:51] <afm\colossus> installing wine to use a proprietary piece of shitty software where a functional, free equivalent exists on GNU/Linux
[10:51] <skavenge> Ambimom: why not use a linux torrent program?
[10:52] <John[1] > I have dapper installed and I would like to get the desktop up and running so I have a gui interface.
[10:52] <Byan> alright..
[10:52] <Ambimom> Because the linux torrent programs are too limited
[10:52] <FurryNemesis> John[1] , eh?
[10:52] <skavenge> ookay
[10:52] <Byan> how do I edit the interfaces file?
[10:52] <afm\colossus> i call bullshit
[10:52] <SpudDogg> John[1] , when I installed DD, everything worked fine...maybe reinstall?
[10:52] <Ambimom> Utorrent gives you control and also encrypts outgoing
[10:52] <afm\colossus> ktorrent 2.0 boasts every feature there is for bittorrent
[10:52] <skavenge> maybe you should run it in windows then?
[10:53] <John[1] > I have did this twice.  I slected LAMP install, should I have selected install to harddrive?
[10:53] <M0nk3Ee> could someone please send/paste the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/libgcj7.list mine seems to be missing and its causing problems with apt-get
[10:53] <Ambimom> I'm trying to switch to linux...but I miss torrents and usenet
[10:53] <SpudDogg> John[1] :  sorry man, i dont know what that means...
[10:53] <skavenge> we have programs for all of that if you'll take the time to learn them
[10:54] <Doodluv> install to hdd
[10:54] <M0nk3Ee> Please??
[10:54] <SpudDogg> John[1] , I have heard people talking about LAMP before, but i never saw anything like that during my install(s)
[10:54] <Ambimom> I have looked at all of them skavenge....but they're clutzy and difficult to configure....
[10:54] <skavenge> otherwise try #winehq for wine problems
[10:54] <aguila> join #gulcr
[10:54] <afm\colossus> all of them
[10:54] <afm\colossus> very well
[10:54] <jwl007|wrk|lunch> hello
[10:54] <skavenge> *sigh* well
[10:54] <skavenge> they're working fine for everyone thats using them
[10:54] <John[1] > Ok, when I put the CD in the drive and fired up my pc.  The ubuntu disk started.  It asked if I wanted to install the LAMP server or install to harddrive.  I selected LAMP.  Now all I have is a command prompt.
[10:54] <Ambimom> omg why are linux folks always so reluctant to listen to a legitimate question
[10:55] <skavenge> Ambimom: this is not wine support, again, #winehq
[10:55] <Ambimom> I like linux, am really enjoying it, but it does have limitations
[10:55] <skavenge> we're reluctant to help people use windows programs on linux when there are viable options that run nativley
[10:56] <Ambimom> omg....
[10:56] <Ambimom> hmmmmmm......
[10:56] <afm\colossus> because it's just stupid beyond belief
[10:56] <afm\colossus> :>
[10:56] <SpudDogg> John[1] , when i put in my DD disk, it booted into normal ubuntu, with an icon on the desktop for install.  Maybe install the normal desktop version instead of the LAMP version and install the APache, Mysql and Perl afterwards
[10:56] <skavenge> your asking in a linux channel about why a windows program doesnt have rss support .. how many of us do you think have any idea about the program whatsoever?
[10:57] <jwl007> i have a question about pcmcia wireless
[10:57] <John[1] > Spudman are you running dapper?  Do you have a desktop gui?
[10:57] <M0nk3Ee> afm\colossus: if you have have the file /var/lib/dpkg/info/libgcj7.list could you please dcc it too me, my hard disk had a problem and it seems to be corrupt
[10:57] <SpudDogg> John[1] , when i put in my DD disk, it booted into normal ubuntu, with an icon on the desktop for install.  Maybe install the normal desktop version instead of the LAMP version and install the APache, Mysql and Perl afterwards

[10:59] <M0nk3Ee> thanks afm\colossus
[10:59] <afm\colossus> you're welcome
[10:59] <John[1] > The dsik I downloaded does not give you that option.  I dowloaded and installed iso image ubuntu-6.06.1-server-i386
[10:59] <SpudDogg> John[1] , try installing this one http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/ubuntu-releases/6.06/
[10:59] <skizzo> John[1] :  I missed the beginning of your question, but I think you have the Ubuntu SERVER disk
[10:59] <skizzo> which only allows you to install Ubuntu server (read: no GUI)
[10:59] <SpudDogg> skizzo, yes, he does
[11:00] <jwl007> can someone help me setup a wireless pcmcia card (the device manager shows the card, but ifconfig does not)
[11:01] <skizzo> SpudDogg:  well, that's why he's only got a command prompt now ;-)
[11:01] <SpudDogg> jwl007, what card are you running
[11:01] <drew32> hey can anyone help me with a port forwarding issue?
[11:01] <John[1] > yes I do have the serer disk, is there a way to install the desktop gui on it?
[11:01] <SpudDogg> skizzo, yea, i gave him a link to get the right one
[11:01] <afm\colossus> apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[11:01] <jwl007> its a gateway wbm-120 (prism 2.2 chipset i believe)
[11:01] <skizzo> John[1] :  afm\colossus  has your answer
[11:01] <SpudDogg> jwl007 have you tried ndiswrapper?
[11:02] <jwl007> SpudDogg, did not come with a windows driver.. Gateway sucks :)..  tried linux-wlan-ng however
[11:02] <sebastian929> whtas a good motherboard for AMD to use in ubuntu?
[11:02] <Jambon> anyone know about how to run computers together, sorta like a cluster that only has one desktop?
[11:03] <Qball> Jambon: google
[11:03] <SpudDogg> jwl007, the only way i know how to get a PCMCIA card working is via ndiswrapper...you cannot find a windows driver for it online?
[11:03] <drew32> Jambon: google for Linux Cluster, there are a few OS's of linux that do it for you
[11:03] <synic> jwl007: you sure it's prism 2.2 ?
[11:03] <John[1] > Ok, I ran that command it is now telling that it will take 1519 MB of drive space after unpacking
[11:03] <afm\colossus> SpudDogg: who told you that?
[11:03] <jwl007> synic, fairly sure, yes
[11:03] <afm\colossus> linux-wlan-ng, when i used it, featured pcmcia-drivers for prism2 as well
[11:04] <synic> jwl007: iwconfig doesn't show it?
[11:04] <John[1] > now it wants me to insert the cd, I have been here before
[11:04] <jwl007> synic, no it does not
[11:04] <SpudDogg> afm\colossus, no one...i played with mine forever just to figure out how to get it working via ndiswrapper...im sure there are other ways, i just do not know them :/
[11:04] <synic> jwl007: dmesg | grep prism
[11:04] <drew32> anyone have any information on port forwarding or ssh tunneling? i could use some help
[11:04] <jwl007> nada
[11:04] <Jambon> drew32: is ubuntu one of them? the wiki i'm looking at seems rather complicated
[11:05] <synic> jwl007: modprobe prism2_cs
[11:05] <drew32> Jambon, i dont think ubuntu has clustering but im not sure
[11:05] <_lupine> sebastian929: MSI :)
[11:05] <jwl007> synic, nothing again
[11:05] <synic> nothing is good when you modprobe
[11:05] <synic> what does it say at the end of dmesg now?
[11:05] <John[1] > Put the cd in and it sayd working
[11:05] <bdrydyk> Hi, i'm new to ubuntu and just noticed that in the default firefox i can no longer type "google search string" into the url bar and have it search, instead it seems to be doing an "I feel lucky" search for google+blah. How can I return it to the behavior i'm used to?
[11:06] <skizzo> John[1] :  Does that computer have an Internet connection?
[11:06] <jwl007> synic, prism2cs_init: prism2_cs.o: 0.2.2 Loaded,  prism2cs_init: dev_info is : prism2_cs

[11:07] <jwl007> synic, nothin still
[11:07] <synic> jwl007: /etc/init.d/pcmcia* start
[11:07] <dcordero> iiibiiintiiii
[11:08] <M0nk3Ee> I am having problems with my apt-get, seems to be missing blah.list files, i think when my laptop locked pretty much a whole directory must have become corrupt, i have replaced a few files however it just seems to be finding new files it is missing, how do i go about doing a file system check?
[11:08] <FurryNemesis> ty
[11:08] <M0nk3Ee> when i type fsck it talks about it being dangerous to do it on a mounted volume,
[11:08] <M0nk3Ee> how do i schedule it to do it at startup similar to windows
[11:08] <jwl007> synic: linux requires pcmciautils instead of pcmcia-cs
[11:08] <synic> jwl007: huh?
[11:09] <linopil> M0nk3Ee: have a BOOTABLE rescue CD?
[11:09] <linopil> install Cd is good for that matter
[11:09] <jwl007> when i plugged in the pcmcia card, it said that pcmcia-cs was deprecated and to use pcmcia-utils instead
[11:09] <M0nk3Ee> linopil: i have the origial disk i installed linux from, linux format disk that has live version of ubuntu
[11:09] <bdrydyk> Strangely, searching for "google blah" in a portable version of firefox 2 beta 2 also doesn't work.
[11:10] <bdrydyk> i'm stumped!
[11:10] <linopil> you can fsck from there as well
[11:10] <afm\colossus> bdrydyk: you can creat an "intelligent" bookbarm for google searches
[11:10] <SpudDogg> using ubuntu i can stream mp3s from my computer room out to my laptop...does anyone know if its possible to do the same with AVI movies?
[11:10] <John[1] > Now it says failed to fetch archive http://us.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libs/libsexy/libsexy2_0.1.07-0ubuntu5_i386.deb Size mismatch.
[11:10] <linopil> are u familiar with chroot /mnt/sysimage ?
[11:11] <dcordero> SpudDogg you can do something with ubuntu like with windows
[11:11] <bdrydyk> afm\colossus: Is the problem that the linux version of firefox doesn't ship with the intelligent bookmarks that the windows version does?
[11:11] <M0nk3Ee> linopil: i guess that a filesystem check might help, i seem to be having problems with apt-get reporting .list files missing, it wont let me reinstall the packages and when i sort out one file then it just complains about another. i did think about removing the packages but there seems to be alot depending on it.
[11:11] <afm\colossus> bdrydyk: possibly, i don't know
[11:11] <ShastaMaroon> What kernel version does 6.06 come with?
[11:11] <afm\colossus> i created them myself
[11:11] <jwl007> synic, ok started pcmcia
[11:11] <afm\colossus> for various services
[11:11] <bdrydyk> afm\colossus: Ok, thanks for the help.
[11:11] <linopil> bdrydyk: what are intelligent bookmarks ?
[11:12] <SpudDogg> dcordero under windows i can stream movies just fine...under linux, they just dont streaming for some reason
[11:12] <chameleon> synic: thx I will try now
[11:12] <synic> jwl007: any luck in iwconfig?
[11:12] <John[1] > The it says-E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing
[11:12] <bdrydyk> linopil: I believe they are what allow you to type something like "google my search string" in the firefox url bar and have it search google for your string.
[11:12] <dcordero> SpudDogg i think that mplayer have a streaming option
[11:12] <erUSUL> M0nk3Ee: 'sudo shutdown -r -F now' i have not tested it but acording to man page for shutdown it should force the fsck
[11:12] <jwl007> synic, negative
[11:12] <bdrydyk> Instead of doing an I feel luck search.
[11:12] <SpudDogg> dcordero, when you say mplayer are you talking about totem movie player?
[11:12] <afm\colossus> linopil: you can associate mozilla bookmarks with keywords, and perform argument injection into the bookmark's url
[11:13] <coreymon77> hello
[11:13] <SpudDogg> coreymon77 hello
[11:13] <dcordero> SpudDogg no, when i say mplayer i am talking about mplayer. apt-cache search mplayer
[11:13] <Toaster^> I need some help with my ubuntu server. Some things like apache, ssh etc works perfect from "outside my LAN", but I've been trying to get a UT(goty) server up and running, but only LAN players can connect..My router has of course forwarded the ports. HELP!
[11:13] <coreymon77> hi
[11:13] <bdrydyk> Actually, thanks to all you ubuntu irc helpers. It's much appreciated!
[11:13] <John[1] > Man I hope I do not have to type all that agin.
[11:13] <m4rk> does ubuntu give 5.1 sound with any hardwares?
[11:13] <coreymon77> i have a hp h1940 series ipaq, is it possible to sync it in linux
[11:13] <coreymon77> ?
[11:13] <Przemcio1978> hi, there's a game for linux that is similar to icy tower. does anyone know the name?
[11:13] <kyle_> Can anyone help? im looking for a certain peer2peer program, but i cant remember the name exactly... i think it is something like "gtk-genuik?"
[11:13] <afm\colossus> for example, creating a bookmark with "http://www.google.at/search?hl=en&q=%s&btnG=Google+Search" as the URL
[11:14] <afm\colossus> and associating it with, for example, "gg" as the keyword
[11:14] <Toaster^> kyle_, I'd guesed GTK-Gnutella :)
[11:14] <afm\colossus> allowd you to type "gg your search term" in the location bar
[11:14] <Byan> anyways.., how do I set up SSH..
[11:14] <Byan> ?
[11:14] <afm\colossus> to make firefox search via google
[11:14] <kyle_> Toaster^: lol i was way off, thank you :) lol
[11:14] <Toaster^> np ;)
[11:14] <coreymon77> afm: use firefox, it has a google toolbar built right into it
[11:14] <SpudDogg> dcordero, its installing now via apt-get install mplayer     thanks!
[11:14] <afm\colossus> %s is the joker char, you can "inject" it in any URL you'd want to
[11:14] <linopil> afm\colossus: I will bear in mind and try it for now I did not understand argument injection into bookmark;s URL. 10x anyway
[11:14] <SeanTater> Byan: on the server, install openssh-server
[11:14] <afm\colossus> coreymon77: this is not limited to google
[11:14] <Toaster^> kyle_, I would recommend frostwire though
[11:14] <coreymon77> i know that
[11:15] <SeanTater> Byan: that's it
[11:15] <John[1] > spuddogg did you see what I posted?
[11:15] <kyle_> Toaster^: is it available on Synaptic?
[11:15] <SpudDogg> John[1]  no i didnt
[11:15] <Byan> missing distination file operand
[11:15] <coreymon77> anybody know if/how i can sync/install programs on to my pocket pc in linux
[11:15] <Toaster^> I'm not sure, but it is availible through automatix :)
[11:15] <afm\colossus> i use "http://icq.com/whitepages/about_me.php?uin=%s" for looking up ICQ UINs for example
[11:15] <John[1] > Can you scroll back I posted the entire msg that I was left with on the screen.
[11:16] <linopil> afm\colossus: thanks for example you are reading thoughts
[11:16] <coreymon77> is there any sort of activesync type thing for linux
[11:16] <sebastian929> im want to build a ubuntu computer any recommondations what to use and what to stay away from? im looking at amd 64 bit processor
[11:17] <Toaster^> I need some help with my ubuntu server. Some things like apache, ssh etc works perfect from "outside my LAN", but I've been trying to get a UT(goty) server up and running, but only LAN players can connect..My router has of course forwarded the ports. HELP!
[11:17] <arthomps> anybody have issues with k8 smp enabled kernel freezing randomly like once every 2 to 3 days?  drives me nuts...  not seeing /var/log/messages that are relevant.
[11:18] <ShastaMaroon> Has anyone been able to set up the broadcom 4306 wireless chipset?
[11:18] <erUSUL> !broadcom
[11:18] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:18] <bdrydyk> Is it possible to use openBSD's pf firewall in ubuntu? I'm in love with it and not to keen on dropping it as I move to ubuntu.
[11:18] <erUSUL> bdrydyk: no
[11:18] <John[1] > Spudogg were you able to go back and see it?
[11:18] <ShastaMaroon> thanks
[11:18] <bdrydyk> erUSUL: Ok, thanks for the response.
[11:18] <SpudDogg> ShastaMaroon, i have a broadcom wireless card working, but im not sure which (4306?)
[11:19] <erUSUL> bdrydyk: no problem. both, pf and iptables, are fw implemented in the kernel so you can not run it as userspace in diff kernels
[11:19] <Agravain> ShastaMaroon: yeah, I've got that one, I'm using windows drivers through ndiswrapper + gnome network manager
[11:20] <shannon> could someone help me with a serial modem problem please?
[11:20] <kyle_> Toaster^: do you happen to have the apt cmd line to get automatix?
[11:20] <erUSUL> shannon: what problem?
[11:20] <shannon> well, the modem works in windows, but it won't work in linux....
[11:20] <ladydoor> !automatix > kyle_
[11:20] <erUSUL> !modem
[11:20] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[11:21] <John[1] > Hey  spuddogg did you see it or even check?
[11:21] <shannon> ubotu:I followed that howto, but it didn't work
[11:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about I followed that howto, but it didn't work - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:21] <erUSUL> shannon: ubotu is a bot ;)
[11:21] <shannon> oh
[11:21] <shannon> oops
[11:21] <erUSUL> shannon: whare did the process (of configuring) failed?
[11:22] <skizzo> This is weird: I can't access my Ubuntu machine from my windows machine - it won't authenticate. Can anyone help me out with that?
[11:22] <John[1] > hello spuddogg
[11:23] <shannon> well, like the howto said, I tried querying the modem (on com1 so /dev/ttyS0) and it just says that it couldn't find the modem
[11:23] <muhammad> !samba
[11:23] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:23] <bdrydyk> skizzo: Can you ping between the two machines?
 follow that link and u will be able to add users :)
[11:23] <erUSUL> shannon: have you tried ttyS1 or other port?
[11:23] <Byan> uhm..
[11:23] <Byan> can someone tell me why I can't use su?
[11:23] <erUSUL> !sudo
[11:23] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:23] <kevinG> do you guys know how to get Totem to play .mpg files in 64 bit ubuntu?
[11:23] <John[1] > hey spudogg
[11:24] <mcphail> Byan: because you haven't set a root password. Use sudo
[11:24] <erUSUL> Byan: we use sudo around here
[11:24] <Byan> how do I set a root password?
[11:24] <kyle_> Byan: you dont.
[11:24] <Byan> what if I want to
[11:24] <erUSUL> Byan: this is not advised use sudo
[11:24] <Byan> sudo is annoying...
[11:24] <afm\colo> sudo passwd root
[11:24] <ompaul> !sudo
[11:24] <erUSUL> Byan: go and use another distro with a diferent policy about su and sudo
[11:24] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:25] <afm\colo> well
[11:25] <afm\colo> i tend to use `sudo su` pretty often
[11:25] <afm\colo> ofc with NOPASSWD:ALL for everyone in wheel
[11:25] <afm\colo> :>
[11:25] <muhammad> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba?highlight=%28samba%29  <skizzo> this one also will help ya
[11:25] <erUSUL> Byan: what is annoying 'sudo -i' will give you a root shell as su would
[11:25] <John[1] > wow!!!
[11:25] <nailbunny> i use sudo bash
[11:25] <FRET> erUSUL, why are you telling people to use another distro, just because they want to have working root-account?
[11:25] <Byan> erUSUL: oh
[11:25] <erUSUL> nailbunny: use 'sudo -i' is safer
[11:25] <afm\colo> nailbunny: well, great - saves you one process ;)
[11:25] <skizzo> muhammad:  thanks for the link - I'll dig around...
[11:26] <FRET> this cannot be the policy of ubuntu....
[11:26] <Byan> how do I delete the root password now
[11:26] <muhammad> skizzo> yvw :)
[11:26] <tainted_> is it possible to log into my ubuntu gnome session from a windows machine?
[11:26] <shannon> erUSUL: I tried all the ports
[11:26] <kevinG> do you guys know how to get Totem to play .mpg files in 64 bit ubuntu?
[11:26] <tainted_> i'm sorry if that is a dumb question
[11:26] <afm\colo> Byan: i alread told you
[11:26] <erUSUL> shannon: without luck?
[11:26] <Byan> just set no password?
[11:26] <nailbunny> erUSUL: ah goot to know thanks
[11:26] <shannon> erUSUL:correct, no luck
[11:26] <bdrydyk> tainted_: You can install putty for ssh sessions from a windows computer.
[11:27] <Byan> hmm, not that fails..
[11:27] <Byan> no*
[11:27] <StoneNote> tainted_, yes. set up openssh and freenx server and then use an nx client for a remote x session
[11:27] <Byan> afm\colo: I set a root password.. and I want to get rid of it
[11:27] <arthomps> byan, why?   that's silly
[11:27] <afm\colo> Byan: you don't "get rid" of the root password
[11:27] <StoneNote> tainted_, the sessiion can be encrypted and compressed as well
[11:27] <Byan> how do I put it how it was?
[11:27] <afm\colo> you're better off shooting yourself if you'd want to
[11:28] <tainted_> StoneNote, I will only be using it in a LAN environment
[11:28] <tainted_> so nx server and client is what i'm looking for
[11:28] <afm\colo> Byan: you'd have to edit /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow yourseld
[11:28] <afm\colo> *yourself
[11:28] <erUSUL> shannon: try sudo echo 'ATZ' > /dev/ttyS0 and whatch the lights of the modem to see if you see any reaction
[11:28] <Byan> bah..
[11:28] <Byan> I'll leave it
[11:28] <_MoNkAbAnG_> back sorry had to go to school
[11:28] <windmill> why is it so bloody difficult to set up samba shares... I feel like I'm banging y head agaist a wall
[11:28] <_MoNkAbAnG_> brb
[11:28] <oferw> still have problems with the internet connection and the wireless card - after intallation and upgrade the internet is not working and how do I set up the wireless card
[11:29] <finalbeta_> What media player can I use to view streamed video? totem just can't cut it.
[11:29] <synic> mplayer
[11:29] <arthomps> oferw: sudo dhclient work?
[11:29] <erUSUL> finalbeta_: mplayer, xine
[11:30] <m4rk> ooobooontooo
[11:30] <m4rk> does ubuntu give 5.1 sound with any hardwares?
[11:30] <afm\colo> m4rk: of course
[11:30] <afm\colo> emu10k1, for example
[11:30] <TheGateKeeper> what's the cli command to list all the groups please people?
[11:30] <afm\colo> cat /etc/group
[11:31] <afm\colo> ;)
[11:31] <shannon> erUSUL: the modem lit up 3 lights
[11:31] <skizzo> muhammad:  it was that pesky smbpasswd command...
[11:31] <Thomas3> problem: when I restart ubuntu, gnome doesn't start properly (nothing on desktop), UNLESS I force a fsck on reboot.. I shut off the computer with "shutdown -r now" and it fails on reboot, but "shutdown -r -F now" makes gnome work fine on reboot.. any idea?
 yea now try to add username and password for the one who u want to give him access on ur ubuntu
[11:32] <erUSUL> shannon: the modem is there in ttyS0 do not know why it is not detected though. what program are you using to configure the conection?
[11:32] <skizzo> muhammad:  It works now that I've added a smbuser - is there a gnome-equivalent to doing this?
[11:32] <m4rk> does it work with soundblaster live 24bit?
[11:32] <Byan> how do I install apache?
[11:33] <OpeNZ> Byan: what platform?
 i dont think so cuz if its a GUI way should the author mentioned it
[11:33] <shannon> erUSUL: kppp
[11:33] <skizzo> muhammad:  okay, thanks for the help :-)
[11:33] <Byan> OpeNZ: platform? as in AMD64?
[11:33] <OpeNZ> Byan:sorry, what OS
[11:33] <muhammad> skizzo any time :)
[11:33] <shannon> erUSUL: I did sudo ln -s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/modem and that seemed to work
[11:33] <Byan> ubuntu server
[11:33] <erUSUL> shannon: and it does not detect the modem in /dev/ttyS0 ??
[11:34] <oferw> arthomps: this is for the internet connection?
[11:34] <OpeNZ> Byan: several ways to do it
[11:34] <John[1] > Can someone help me?  Here si the error msg i get when I try to install the desktop gui on dapper.  [17:10]  <John[1] > Now it says failed to fetch archive http://us.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libs/libsexy/libsexy2_0.1.07-0ubuntu5_i386.deb Size mismatch.[17:12]  <John[1] > The it says-E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing
[11:34] <shannon> erUSUL: for some reason it doesn't, but since I linked it to /dev/modem it seems fine now... thanks for your help!
[11:34] <oferw> arthomps: I am talking from the same line so need to reconnect
[11:34] <Byan> and which one is the best for a noob like me
[11:34] <erUSUL> shannon: i'm sure you can tell kppp which device to use explicity but the link is a good idea too :)
[11:35] <lobajotodo> hola gente
[11:35] <bthornton> I just swapped my MB/CPU from a 32-bit Athlon XP to 64-bit Pentium D; thus, the OS is still the 32-bit install of Ubuntu.  It runs well (using the "686" SMP kernel), but would it be faster if I reinstalled with the 64-bit Ubuntu?
[11:35] <lobajotodo> hi people
[11:35] <erUSUL> shannon: no problem
[11:35] <OpeNZ> Byan: command line you type "sudo apt-get install apache2" (without quotes
[11:35] <afm\colo> bthornton: yes, but only so little you would not notice
[11:35] <fatsheep> hey I need some help with partitioning my disk
[11:35] <OpeNZ> Byan: or use Synaptic to install it
[11:36] <fatsheep> allocating unallocated space to be specific...
[11:36] <Byan> synaptic?
[11:36] <erUSUL> !synaptic
[11:36] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[11:36] <afm\colo> fatsheep: cfdisk is your friend
[11:36] <nailbunny> ok i'm trying to run xbconnect (xbox tunneling software) through vmware (xp)... the program can 'find' the xbox but when i try to join a game (or when someone tries to join mine) i get an error.. any ideas?
[11:36] <AxelHansson> Seriously going nuts. There's no information regarding my sound card on ALSA or google. It wont even find the sound card even though window does (Works perfectly fine there).
[11:36] <vknecht> hi
[11:36] <bthornton> afm\colo: so for the trouble I'd go through, probably stick with 32-bit?
[11:37] <Byan> should I install X on here? and if so, how do I do it?
[11:37] <afm\colo> yes
[11:37] <linopil> ha ha taling to ubotu ?
[11:37] <afm\colo> @ bthornton
[11:37] <bthornton> ok thanks
[11:37] <bthornton> on another topic...
[11:37] <Abst> Hey, if I've created a seperate partition for my home folder how would I make that my home folder?
[11:37] <Red-Sox> Hi
[11:37] <brooklyn> Abst: why would you do that :P
[11:37] <OpeNZ> Byan: you mean x server?
[11:37] <linopil> AxelHansson: how legacy is the sound card ?
[11:37] <Red-Sox> How do I configure my ATI card to work with X?
[11:38] <Byan> OpeNZ: yeah
[11:38] <finalbeta_> Where do you change what file type opens what program when you click it?
[11:38] <bthornton> when I log in as a regular user to a GNOME session, all I get is a terminal window (no window manager running) repeating infinitely something about "/dev/null: Permission denied".  Logging in as root works just fine.  Any ideas?
[11:38] <Abst> brooklyn: Backup maybe?
[11:38] <Abst> Its a small backup protection I guess
[11:38] <Abst> And if I ever want to change distros
[11:38] <Red-Sox> I'm on breezy, I plan on updating my repos after i get apt working
[11:38] <afm\colo> bthornton: fix /dev/null's permissions
[11:38] <Red-Sox> but right now I need it to work with my card
[11:38] <afm\colo> `chmod 666 /dev/null` as root
[11:38] <exs> hello. I'm trying to compile this program, but I am unable to install it.. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me. Thank you. p.s. Homepage; http://hypermammut.sourceforge.net/paulstretch/ and here's the download; http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/hypermammut/paulstretch-1.000.tar.bz2
[11:38] <linopil> useful question finalbeta_
[11:38] <afm\colo> however, if this happens after rebooting, there is something fishy with your udev config
[11:38] <OpeNZ> again Synaptic would be good to installfrom
[11:39] <m4rk> does ubuntu work with soundblaster live 24bit?
[11:39] <exs> OpeNZ:  it's not there
[11:39] <AxelHansson> Linopil: How old it is? Bought it one year ago but I believe it's two, three years old.
[11:39] <_MoNkAbAnG_> back
[11:39] <linopil> m4rk: most probably yes
[11:39] <Red-Sox> Are there some drivers or something for ATI??
[11:39] <bthornton> wonder why it got changed in the first place?
[11:39] <_MoNkAbAnG_> what are yall talking about
[11:39] <bthornton> I sure as heck never changed the perms on it
[11:39] <Red-Sox> Right now I'm not even in X so...
[11:39] <grimboy> exs, Search for deb and the applications name.
[11:39] <linopil> OK sounds like it should work AxelHansson
[11:39] <ladydoor> _MoNkAbAnG_:
[11:40] <AxelHansson> ALSA doesn't support it.
[11:40] <OpeNZ> exs: whats not there
[11:40] <AxelHansson> Neither does Ubuntu find it.
[11:40] <exs> grimboy:  This is just one developer.
[11:40] <_MoNkAbAnG_> sup peeps
[11:40] <Abst> Hey _MoNkAbAnG_
[11:40] <exs> it's not a ubuntu specific app, it is just a standalone time audio stretching audio application
[11:40] <brooklyn> Can someone do me a big favor and see if www.53.com works for them?
[11:40] <_MoNkAbAnG_> hey abst
[11:40] <grimboy> exs, Sure, but someone might have compiled it and put together a deb. That's the way FOSS works.
[11:41] <exs> uhm ok
[11:41] <crimsun> AxelHansson: pastebin ``lspci -nv''
[11:41] <Abst> brooklyn, Works for me but its slow, very slow.
[11:41] <brooklyn> Abst: hrm... doesnt even load for me.
[11:41] <Abst> Yeah
[11:41] <AxelHansson> !pastebin
[11:41] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[11:41] <Abst> The page took like 40 seconds to load
[11:41] <brooklyn> Abst: i need to check my bank transactions, and i cant even get a ping from the site! lol
[11:42] <John[1] > This palce is like a mad house in here.  No real claer way to get any help.  WOW!!
[11:42] <linopil> brooklyn:  ???????????????/
[11:42] <_MoNkAbAnG_> hey answer me this does linux slow down or do you download things to make it faster cause thats what my bro did
[11:42] <Abst> brooklyn: You are probably further away from it than me
[11:42] <Brownster> Red-Sox,  which card do you have? most ati cards are supported
[11:42] <linopil> what is www.53.com ?????????/ brooklyn ?
[11:42] <Abst> brooklyn: Just give me the user/pass and ill check for you!

[11:42] <brooklyn> linopil: its a bank website... i was just curious if it was working for anyone
[11:42] <brooklyn> Abst: haha!
[11:42] <Abst> Free of charge!
[11:43] <brooklyn> lol
[11:43] <linopil> are you promoting the  bank to channel ppl?
[11:43] <exs> grimboy:  it's not there. Can you try and install it on your machine to give me instructions?. the developer told me "You have to compile it. Download the source code and read the readme.txt and install the required libraries.
[11:43] <exs> After this, run compile_linux_kissfft.sh and it should compile."
[11:43] <Red-Sox> Brownster: is that supported?
[11:43] <Brownster> Red-Sox,  just having a look
[11:43] <RamiKassab> hey guys how can you tell if an application was installed via apt-get or source? Also, how can you tell apt-get to try to upgrade a specific application?
[11:43] <Abst> linopil: I doubt anyone will join a bank like that..
[11:43] <linopil> bad boy brooklyn
[11:43] <exs> I've tried doing ./compile_linux_kissfft.s but doesn't work
[11:43] <brooklyn> :x

[11:44] <CRoach> saat
[11:44] <brooklyn> Abst: can you direct me to a program that will allow me to play .mpg files?
[11:44] <grimboy> exs, first do "sudo apt-get install build-essential", next look at all the libaries required by the program and do "sudo apt-get install *libary*" for each one, then follow the compilation and installation instructions.

[11:44] <Brownster> Red-Sox,  theres a driver, hangon
[11:44] <Michael> does ubuntu have a live cd like knoppix so I can check it out? and is it installable
[11:44] <Abst> Yes
[11:45] <Abst> The installer is the livecd Michael
[11:45] <brooklyn> Michael: best live cd, ever :)
[11:45] <fdoving> Michael: yes, the install cd is also a livecd.
[11:45] <Madpilot> Michael, yes to both questions - and it's installable off the LiveCD
[11:45] <erUSUL> !desktopcd
[11:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about desktopcd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:45] <Abst> !Livecd
[11:45] <ubotu> Ubuntu Dapper 'Desktop' CD contains a Live CD (Ubuntu that runs straight off the CD and RAM) with an install option. Breezy's Live CD contained no install.
[11:45] <m4rk> does ubuntu work with soundblaster live USB external sound card?
[11:45] <exs> grimboy:  I've got buold essential.. I've downloaded the required libraries, and I've followed the instillation instructions
[11:45] <Abst> m4rk: Use the livecd and test it
[11:45] <Michael> how does ubuntu support wireless pcmcia cards on laptops?
[11:45] <RamiKassab> hey guys how can you tell if an application was installed via apt-get or source? Also, how can you tell apt-get to try to upgrade a specific application? I have gaim installed on this machine and I'm running the beta version (v 3) and there is an update for it to get MSN working again (beta v 3.1) and would like to install it. Thanks guys
[11:45] <Abst> !wireless
[11:46] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:46] <der0b> exs, what happens when you execute ./compile_linux_kissfft.s
[11:46] <Abst> !repeat > RamiKassab
[11:46] <bthornton> I just changed monitors and the new monitor is not running at its ideal refresh rate (it's doing 1024x768 @ 85 Hz and I think it's capable of like 120 Hz at that resolution).  What do I need to do to get it to run at its highest refresh rate?
[11:46] <Abst> bthornton: do you have the latest drivers?
[11:46] <erUSUL> !fixres
[11:46] <crimsun> Alex: what are the contents of /proc/asound/cards ?
[11:46] <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
[11:46] <Michael> I will check it out.
[11:46] <crimsun> Alex: sorry
[11:46] <Alex> crimsun: S'ok
[11:46] <erUSUL> !fixres > bthornton
[11:46] <afm\colo> bthornton: set up a modeline for it
[11:46] <AxelH> Axel* ? :p
[11:46] <AxelH> Lets see.
[11:47] <bthornton> Abst: Yes -- nVidia propietary.
[11:47] <m4rk> Abst: I don't have a SB Live, I want to get some ubutuntu-compatible 5.1 hardware
[11:47] <Michael> can any compare ubuntu to suse?   I friend wants me to do suse another wants me to do ubuntu
[11:47] <[GuS] > bthornton, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:47] <m4rk> i liked the look of that but could get something else instead....
[11:47] <afm\colo> m4rk: well, so get an SB Live! or Audigy
[11:47] <Abst> m4rk Well you could check the wiki, otherwise I dunno.
[11:47] <grimboy> exs, Well then the program is probably linked to different versions of the libs, just link the so files its trying to use to the ubuntu version.
[11:47] <m4rk> Audigy ok

[11:48] <m4rk> thank you

[11:49] <Brownster> Red-Sox, the fglrx driver says it supports the x800
[11:49] <Abst> I think thats spanish
[11:49] <m4rk> thanks Abst
[11:49] <finalbeta_> great, hit enother bug again. What to do when sudo gedit doesn't do anything, just sits and waits... , typing gedit does work.
[11:50] <finalbeta_> sick of rebooting for this

[11:50] <Abst> finalbeta_, Also pressing CTRL C kills a terminal process
[11:50] <tom4> problem: I need to force a fsck on reboot to get gnome to start properly (no icons on desktop, no menu). If I shutdown with "shutdown -r now" it doesn't work, with "shutdown -r -F now" it works.. any idea?
[11:50] <afm\colo> Abst: well it send sigterm, it's up to the process what it does about that ;)
[11:51] <AxelH> crimsun: It's empty.
[11:51] <ladydoor> tom4: -h?
[11:51] <Abst> afm\colo: In most cases :D
[11:51] <JoaoJoao> hello
[11:51] <_lupine> "kill -9"++
[11:51] <Abst> JoaoJoao: Hello
[11:51] <crimsun> AxelH: it shouldn't be empty. It should either say "no soundcards" or have content.
[11:51] <AxelH> It's fully empty.
[11:51] <tom4> ladydoor: yes, same, -r or -h, same result
[11:51] <fabiomazzarino> hello folks.
[11:51] <crimsun> AxelH: did you cat it?
[11:51] <Abst> fabiomazzarino, Hey
[11:51] <AxelH> Location: /proc/asound/cards
[11:51] <_MoNkAbAnG_> so whats linuxs past espo
[11:51] <exs> grimboy:  thanks for your help.. I don't know how to link the files though
[11:51] <AxelH> cat?
[11:51] <exs> der0b: p.s. sorry for the big command line log, but that's what happens
[11:51] <sagitt> gente sn riuscito a mettere xchat nuovo
[11:52] <sagitt> per caso esiste in italiano ?
[11:52] <fabiomazzarino> I've just updated from breezy to dapper, but I can't access sound.
[11:52] <crimsun> AxelH: ``cat /proc/asound/cards''
[11:52] <JoaoJoao> I'm looking for wireless cards that work with Linux (without needing tons of manual work like compiling, getting freaking rom's, etc,), any suggestions?
[11:52] <lupine_85> !it
[11:52] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[11:52] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: what error do you have?
[11:52] <lupine_85> oaJoa: Atheros or Ralink are what you need
[11:52] <lupine_85> *Joajoa, rather ;)
[11:52] <AxelH> Nope
[11:52] <fabiomazzarino> crimsun, GnomePanel has disabled sound here.
[11:52] <JoaoJoao> lupine_85: thanks
[11:53] <Abst> lupine_85, Que?
[11:53] <lupine_85> JoaoJoao (got it!)
[11:53] <fabiomazzarino> crimsun, to be honest I don't know how to tel you the error.
[11:53] <tom4> how can I know if a shutdown has properly completed?
[11:53] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: and the contents from ``amixer''?
[11:53] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: use pastebin
[11:53] <JoaoJoao> really, I can't stand my stupid Prism2.5 card
[11:53] <Byan> how do I get a higher console resolution?
[11:53] <exs> grimboy:  any luck?
[11:53] <fabiomazzarino> $ amixer
[11:53] <fabiomazzarino> amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
[11:53] <Byan> I am told to use framebuffer.., but I have no idea how to do that
[11:53] <fabiomazzarino> pastebin. sorry :(
[11:54] <grimboy> exs, With what?
[11:54] <Abst> fabiomazzarino: One line isn't different than a link to the pastebin
[11:54] <Byan> >_<
[11:54] <JoaoJoao> lupine_85: So, with Atheros or Ralink Ubuntu'll just find the card right away :)
[11:54] <Abst> byan: <_>
[11:54] <Marex> jenda, ;-)
[11:54] <grimboy> exs, To link files you do ln -s LINK_TARGET LINK_NAME
[11:54] <Byan> mmm
[11:54] <loupgaroublond> how do i compile a kernel in ubuntu using make-kpkg?  i get an error right at the beginning of bootup, VFS cannot mount root file system to node (0,0), which config settings must be in the kernel itself?
[11:55] <fabiomazzarino> Abst, I think that would be more polite to use pastbin.
[11:55] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: what sound card is it?
[11:55] <Abst> fabiomazzarino: Maybe so
[11:55] <fabiomazzarino> I'm not really sure. I have a A7V600 on-board sound.
[11:55] <erUSUL> !kernel
[11:55] <] GoldenDragon> I am trying to dual-boot Ubuntu and Windows XP, I currently have windows XP installed, if I resize my windows partition to make room for ubuntu, how can I also allow myself to access certain files through Ubuntu and through XP?
[11:55] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[11:55] <lupine_85> JoaoJoao: Atheros will work out of the box. For ralink cards, you'll have to download the driver...
[11:55] <fabiomazzarino> ubuntu has never gave me problems.
[11:55] <lupine_85> ...but it's native linux, and works really well
[11:55] <fabiomazzarino> crimsun, maybe something like CM5something.
[11:56] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: ``lspci -nv''
[11:56] <lupine_85> (I've got 2, and I've helped lots of people with them :) )
[11:56] <Abst> ] GoldenDragon, Ubuntu can read NTFS be default but not write to it. Windows needs FDisk I think to write and read ubuntu.
[11:56] <grimboy> ] GoldenDragon, Make a FAT32 partition for them to share with.
[11:56] <lupine_85> FDisk...?
[11:56] <spoony> Fdisk? no...
[11:56] <] GoldenDragon> hmm...
[11:56] <] GoldenDragon> okay
[11:56] <lupine_85> lol
[11:56] <loupgaroublond> ubotu, so there is no way i can use make-kpkg?
[11:56] <crimsun> AxelH: did you pastebin the contents of /proc/asound/cards?
[11:56] <afm\colo> www.fs-driver.org for win32 ext3 support
[11:56] <JoaoJoao> lupine_85: Hmm but do don't have to compile the driver, look for rom's and stuff like that right?
[11:56] <Michael> does ubuntu support kde, xgl, and gnome?
[11:56] <exs> grimboy:  this is much too hard work.. Are you saying I have to do this on every library ?
[11:56] <AxelH> Yes,
[11:56] <Abst> Michael: Yes
[11:57] <crimsun> AxelH: what URL?
[11:57] <Abst> In forms of Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Ubuntu in that order
[11:57] <tom4> problem: I need to force a fsck on reboot to get gnome to start properly (no icons on desktop, no menu). If I shutdown with "shutdown -r now" it doesn't work, with "shutdown -r -F now" it works.. any idea?
[11:57] <fabiomazzarino> crimsun, I've found no information about soudcards.
[11:57] <AxelH> Already pasted, you've must've missed. Hold on.
[11:57] <loupgaroublond> erUSUL, so there is no way i can use make-kpkg?
[11:57] <lupine_85> JoaoJoao: the driver needs compiling, but it's really as simple as "sudo apt-get install linux-headers build-essential; make; sudo make install"
[11:57] <JoaoJoao> that's good enough, thank
[11:57] <JoaoJoao> thanks
[11:57] <Madpilot> Abst, XGL isn't Xubuntu; Xubuntu is XFCE + Ubuntu
[11:57] <HeXiOn> hello. I'm using ubuntu (gnome) and amarok. Some scripts tell me I need to install "PyQT and PyKDE". Which packages are they?
[11:57] <fabiomazzarino> crimsun, maybe it is not detected.
[11:57] <AxelH> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22274
[11:57] <rshakin> hello all
[11:57] <lupine_85> no firmware to get, or anything like that as long as you stick with the rt2400, rt2500 or ert2570 cards
[11:58] <grimboy> exs, Every libary that has a ubuntu has a different version of to the version that the application requires.
[11:58] <lupine_85> rt61 and rt71 are a bit more bother, and should be avoided for now
[11:58] <Abst> Madpilot; Ah yes, just a quick error
[11:58] <lupine_85> (aka rt2600 and rt2571)
[11:58] <exs> grimboy:  gosh.. now it's getting really fun :O(
[11:58] <erUSUL> loupgaroublond: i do not know sorry :( i use the standar way: make; make modules_install; make install; etc
[11:58] <crimsun> AxelH: that's ``lspci -nv'', not ``cat /proc/asound/cards''
[11:58] <afm\colo> lupine_85: so for rt*-wifi-cards, there's no piece of non-free binary necessary at all?
[11:58] <der0b> when removing items from my kde menu, will they also be removed from the gnome menu?  I basically want to remove the menu items for the gnome apps in KDE
[11:58] <loupgaroublond> erUSUL, there's the package kernel-package for a very good reason....
[11:58] <spoony> anyone using an ATI 7500?
[11:58] <PingunZ> Hey, can I disable binfmt-su, brltty and mdadm-raid from boot ?
[11:58] <Abst> der0b: I dont think so
[11:58] <Tanker__> Hi all, Does Version 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10 fix the no screens error that was around awhile back?
[11:59] <lupine_85> not a single bit (with the exception of the rt?1 cards)... Ralink released GPL drivers
[11:59] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: it says "no soundcards"?
[11:59] <lupine_85> you can get the whole saga at http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/
[11:59] <afm\colo> that's the nicest thing i've heard today :)
[11:59] <lupine_85> lol
[11:59] <fabiomazzarino> no
[11:59] <AxelH> The cat/proc/asound/cards = empty.
[11:59] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: I thought I asked you for ``lspci -nv''
[11:59] <erUSUL> loupgaroublond: i've used many dist over the years and always run vanilla kernel from kernel.org compiled the standar way....
[11:59] <fabiomazzarino> crimsun, just a sec, I'm pasting it.
[11:59] <fabiomazzarino> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22276
[11:59] <crimsun> AxelH: please pastebin the command and its output
[12:00] <fabiomazzarino> crimsun, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22276
[12:00] <dcordero> someone know how can i use the novell desktop on my ubuntu?
[12:00] <loupgaroublond> erUSUL, yeah, but if i'm going to use a debian based distro, it's because they have tools that let you make packages that fit the distro that contain custom kernels, IE autconfigures grub, easy deinstallation
[12:00] <crimsun> fabiomazzarino: ``lsmod |grep ^snd_via82xx''
