[12:01] <mooky> dns21 if your compiling from source you should be aware how to debug
[12:01] <robbbb> does xgl / compix work with ATI open gl drivers?
[12:01] <choongii> Seveas, aside from those four components listed on the page, on packages.ubuntu.com I also see some packages which are listed as [security] . is this a component, or does this indicate that the package is a security release? or something else perhaps?
[12:01] <bobbyd> dns21, you could just compile from source if there's not a package for it
[12:01] <mooky> you're not even giving any information to help us debug it other than "it doesn't work"
[12:01] <robbbb> or is it 1 or the other?

[12:10] <billfur> ah, thanks
[12:10] <dns21> yep, w00t... thanks for the help everybody
[12:10] <mjr> robbbb, it's not "uid", it's just sticky. Nothing for files nowadays, for directories it spesifies that you need to be the owner of a file to delete it even if you have write to the directory (or the owner of the directory)
[12:10] <spuddogg> ompaul, my bad...i had never used pastebin before, and i thought that was it...got it now though
[12:10] <Azathoth_> hiiiiiii
[12:10] <choongii> I'm looking at the faq, at the question 'Once I have installed Ubuntu, will I be able to upgrade to the next release?'... the answer to that Q is 'We fully support upgrades from one release to the next. However, we do not support' but the line gets cut off there. anyone have any idea what that should read? However, we do not support <something> ?
[12:10] <dns21> sincerely, this has to be the coolest and most helpful linux channel on irc
[12:10] <robbbb> so it wont let me run a file as root then
[12:10] <spuddogg> mooky: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22559
[12:10] <ompaul> spuddogg, enjoy it though :-)
[12:10] <mooky> spuddogg what is that showing me
[12:10] <Azathoth_> does anybody know how can i share my accounts of thunderbird firefox PORTABLE os windows to ubuntu???
[12:10] <bbrazil> choongii: link?
[12:11] <LookTJ> spuddogg read topic next time ;)
[12:11] <choongii> bbrazil, http://www.ubuntu.com/support/faq#head-554a5bc453f68051a6b83c83fbfe61b322c6b3fd
[12:11] <spuddogg> mooky the output from the mount command you told me
[12:11] <choongii> bbrazil, it's near the bottom of the page
[12:11] <robbbb> ah cool that seems to work! cheers whoever suggest the sticky uid!
[12:11] <TheGateKeeper> dns21: don't know if you would find this usefull at all ----> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[12:11] <mooky> ok - remove the password and see if it prompt you for a password
[12:11] <visik7> is dapper-proposed safe ?
[12:11] <Azathoth_> does anybody know how can i share my accounts of thunderbird firefox PORTABLE os windows to ubuntu???
[12:11] <mooky> that way you can see if samba responds to your request
[12:12] <bbrazil> choongii: probably "from intrim releases", i.e. from pre-release edgy
[12:12] <stefg> Azathoth_: no big deal, if you use the exact same versions on win and linux you can just point the profile folders to the same directory
[12:12] <robbbb> isn't it a bit dodgy being able to set sticky uid and run something with root privs from a user account?
[12:12] <Azathoth_> but
[12:12] <Azathoth_> in portable i cannot
[12:12] <mooky> yes robbbb
[12:12] <MKR> What does sticky do anyway?
[12:12] <Azathoth_> i have tried this
[12:12] <mooky> thats why you only use it if you have to

[12:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sticky - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:12] <choongii> bbrazil, ah okay, so dapper -> edgy LTS (did I say that right?) should be no prob then :>
[12:12] <Azathoth_> but my e-mails and folders doesn't appear
[12:12] <spuddogg> mooky, yes it did.  i put the password in, and it gave me the same error

[12:13] <bbrazil> choongii: edgy isn't LTS, but yes
[12:13] <bigjb> Azathoth_: have you tried copying the profile directory from portable to the ubuntu profile directory?
[12:13] <ompaul> bbrazil, ehh its different, choongii it does not support the upgrade if you change the distro with outside input and random packages and deleting core packages etc
[12:13] <ProN00b> ok, TLE
[12:13] <Azathoth_> yes
[12:13] <mooky> ok - so it sounds like samba is running and responding but your share/samba config is borked
[12:13] <choongii> hmm okay
[12:13] <spuddogg> mooky, lol borked
[12:13] <Azathoth_> i don't want to copy, i want to share
[12:13] <jjjjjjj> ya this is a little too painful.  maybe I'll tinker with xubuntu on this ol celeron 800mhz ( old emachines pc)
[12:13] <robbbb> so is this sticky uid a bad idea then?

[12:20] <mariogdlt> thanks
[12:20] <myUserName> visik7, no he told me the general idea now the specifics it was somethjing to do with loading modules and crap for my specific cpu
[12:20] <cello_rasp> are there any lightweight alternatives to gdm?
[12:20] <dns21> TheGateKeeper: does amarok communicate with ipod (shuffle)? i've never used amarok
[12:20] <mooky> ompaul really ? you want people to search for the user rather than asking them to do their own leg work
[12:20] <Tactical> Hello, all

[12:21] <mariogdlt> thanks
[12:21] <mooky> ompaul I'm not an ubuntu reg, so I don't know all the bot commands, so I'll back down on that

[12:22] <Waerner> Can somebody please check http://www2.waerner.com and tell me why it's blank. I mean, it finds index.php, which is full of code, but doesn't show anything
[12:22] <CamoCoatJoe> Hi. Who should I report h/w issues to?
[12:22] <mooky> CamoCoatJoe your hardware vendor ?
[12:22] <DarKSideZ> mooky, i dont think i can install any packages, im running Live CD
[12:22] <LnxSlck> anyone can help me with locale ??
[12:22] <mooky> DarKSideZ you can install packages
[12:23] <myUserName> does anyone know how to improve batterylife performance in a centrino laptop
[12:23] <jptxs> i've gotten stuck at "Install the base system" due to an MD5 error on the kernel package.  Do I have any way to fix this? I poked around the terminal but found nothing useful to do....
[12:23] <cello_rasp> You cant install packages on live cd
[12:23] <mooky> DarKSideZ look at the wiki on ubuntu.com - there is an excellent technical documentation project/search engine
[12:23] <LnxSlck> myUserName, yes. dont use it
[12:23] <mooky> it will teach ou the basicis
[12:23] <mooky> cello_rasp yes you can
[12:23] <CamoCoatJoe> mooky:I mean to add to the list of incompatible hardware.
[12:23] <Waerner> jptxs: Re-burn the installation disc... I think...
[12:23] <rapha> Hi all!
[12:23] <fishscene> How do I change my screen resolution from 640x 480 to anything else?
[12:23] <cello_rasp> mooky: into memory???
[12:23] <fishscene> Hi Rapha
[12:23] <jptxs> Waerner: in process, but I hoped for something more immediate =] 
[12:23] <Waerner> LnxSlck: The problem is?
[12:23] <DarKSideZ> mooky, how would i go on about installing gparted?
[12:23] <myUserName> LnxSlck, yes your advice is so constructive isnt it....... I need ubuntu for some of the servers (study)
[12:24] <mooky> CamoCoatJoe kernel.org if its not supported in the kernel, or the hardware vendor to make the driver available to the kernel
[12:24] <mooky> DarKSideZ I've just told you where to look
[12:24] <Waerner> jptxs: No clue then :P
[12:24] <mooky> cello_rasp yes
[12:24] <rapha> Is it at all possible to install Dapper or Edgy on a computer with a GeForce2 MX400 and a CRT screen?
[12:24] <damnhil> IS nVidia or ATI more linux compatible?
[12:24] <Z_God> I just updated my Edgy Eft, vmware server doesn't seem to run anymore now though, is this a known problem?
[12:24] <CamoCoatJoe> mooky:Thanks.
[12:24] <mooky> nvidia
[12:24] <UKMatt> rapha, i don't think it's possible to install edgy lol
[12:24] <DarKSideZ> sorry
[12:24] <LnxSlck> Waerner, my locale is crazy i have gnome in 2 languages at the same time
[12:24] <mjr> ATI, but no thanks to ATI
[12:24] <jptxs> Waerner: thanks, just the same =] 
[12:24] <DarKSideZ> I was on the site :-X
[12:24] <jptxs> any other ideas?
[12:24] <UKMatt> I've had a lot of problems w/ edgy
[12:24] <damnhil> nvidia: please justify
[12:24] <mooky> damnhil it has better support
[12:25] <jptxs> installing 6.06 by the way, the server build
[12:25] <XeniX> fishscene: It should have them in there. If not, you need to edit you /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to include the resolutions you want to use (make sure your monitor supports them)
[12:25] <fishscene> Mooky, about ATI...
[12:25] <krazykit> UKMatt: it IS possible... just remember it's still not final.
[12:25] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, yes.
[12:25] <rapha> UKMatt: how would it not be possible? I just can't get X from the live CD to run. I swear this new graphical installer is the worst freaking stuff that ever happened to ubuntu.
[12:25] <mooky> fishscene what ?
[12:25] <aodx> how do i open the gconf-editor?
[12:25] <fishscene> I'm running a ATI 9800 Radeon pro
[12:25] <Waerner> LnxSlck: hmm, okay... tried    LANG=whateveryouwant ?
[12:25] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: any idea how to get X working then?
[12:25] <fishscene> and I can't change the resolution
[12:25] <tuxtux> notte @all
[12:25] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: from the live cd, that is
[12:25] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, what's the problem?
[12:25] <LnxSlck> Waerner, yes, doesn't work
[12:25] <porcho> is it possible to play rmvb files with subtitles under ubuntu?
[12:25] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: screen remains black. I do hear the GNOME login sound tho.
[12:25] <UKMatt> krazykit, ya i know, i've just had a lot of issues with it, i tried twice this weekend to do it and couldn't, so i'm back on dapper
[12:25] <LnxSlck> Waerner, tryed the reconfigure-locale.. same thing
[12:25] <Waerner> LnxSlck: Damn...
[12:26] <UKMatt> rapha, i'm kidding, just saying its buggy
[12:26] <damnhil> mooky: better support such as DRI?
[12:26] <enderhegemon> Hi, can anyone help me with cadaver?
[12:26] <mooky> better general driver support
[12:26] <rapha> UKMatt: kay. That's actually why I wanna install it :-P
[12:26] <LnxSlck> Waerner, locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
[12:26] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, does the computer have an onboard video card, too? (making two total)
[12:26] <jptxs> I was thinking there may be some way to force apt to use the deb even thought the MD5 fails...
[12:26] <Dvipe> Help! installed Ubuntu in OEM mode. ask for password during install, but now after installation is complete is' asking me foa a username? help nubie
[12:26] <LnxSlck> Waerner, altough LC_ALL=pt_PT.UTF-8
[12:26] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: it has two GeForce 2; none of with is onboard.
[12:26] <fishscene> Dv, did you make a username?
[12:27] <BHSPitMonkey> Dvipe, try "ubuntu"?
[12:27] <Dvipe> Fish no I did not
[12:27] <damnhil> Does ATI cards run in DRI(direct rendering)?
[12:27] <dns21> TheGateKeeper: sweet, thank you, i haven't seen that yet, it looks like i need to installed the gstreamer stuff, it looks like rhythmbox doesn't like to use of codecs i already have installed
[12:27] <spuddogg> mooky, do you want to see screenshots of my current settings?
[12:27] <spuddogg> mooky, would it help?
[12:27] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, and neither is getting a signal?
[12:27] <Waerner> LnxSlck: I'm not that familiar with that at all... I just know that I solved a problem by using LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8
[12:27] <mooky> spuddogg not really
[12:27] <habeeb> I get a common error msg in Firefox. When i close one instance of firefox with Xkill, I cant open another one "because another instance of this program is running". I tried with top, and couldnt find any firefox...
[12:27] <spuddogg> mooky, ok
[12:27] <BHSPitMonkey> Dvipe, try "ubuntu"?
[12:27] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: oh, that's a good point, i didn't try the second :-P
[12:27] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, :P
[12:27] <LnxSlck> Waerner, i tryed that, but my menus in gnome still appear on 2 diferent languages
[12:28] <enderhegemon> Has anyone been able to access iDisk?
[12:28] <w30> I have a make program for making a kernel module looking for  /lib/modules/"kernel_no"/build. can I use a semi-link to make this build work and where does the link go to?
[12:28] <Waerner> ah, okay... I don't even have X installed... Just running the basics... Sorry :-/
[12:28] <dns21> TheGateKeeper: you were a big help, whenever i use google it seems i end up searching through a heap of material that i don't need to know
[12:28] <fishscene> I know during installation it asks for a username and password, if you put that information in, go ahead and type the username and password on the login screen (It doesn't show the usernames on the loginscreen)
[12:28] <dns21> TheGateKeeper: thank you very much
[12:28] <BHSPitMonkey> fishscene, he did an OEM installation.
[12:28] <Dvipe> I'll try unbuntu with the password i submitted during install
[12:29] <TheGateKeeper> dns21: yw :-) hope you get it working, if you have a choice of engines as amarok gives to you could always use xine & libxine-extracodes
[12:29] <Waerner> Well, off to bed now! Cya, and good luck everyone
[12:29] <BHSPitMonkey> Dvipe, but spell it right ;)
[12:29] <rapha> HAH! That was it BHSPitMonkey. Could have thought of that myself ;]  -- thanks!
[12:29] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, :)
[12:29] <fishscene> oops, sorry about that, I didn't catch that
[12:29] <TheGateKeeper> dns21: off to bed now, best of luck :-)
[12:29] <dns21> TheGateKeeper: amarok looks very nice, maybe a little to feature-rich and bloated for me
[12:29] <fishscene> My screen resolution is stuck at 640x 480, so I can't exactly see a whole lot of text in the chat room here
[12:30] <dns21> TheGateKeeper: good night
[12:30] <TheGateKeeper> dns21: what you get with a standard kubuntu install, good night :-)
[12:30] <jjjjjjj> well i'm not reformatting.... doing a sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop instead
[12:30] <Dvipe> using ubuntu as the usernamene did not work, I guess I will have to reinstall
[12:31] <Liberty> wtf
[12:31] <viator> whats a good backup solution
[12:31] <viator> that even a grandmother could use
[12:31] <fishscene> Could someone help me out with my screen resolution?
[12:31] <gnomefreak> Liberty: watch you language please
[12:32] <Liberty> gnomefreak: 9/10 people here can't even translate that.
[12:32] <mooky> yes we can
[12:32] <XeniX>  fishscene: It should have them in there. If not, you need to edit you /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to include the resolutions you want to use (make sure your monitor supports them)
[12:32] <gnomefreak> Liberty: i didnt ask if they could or not i asked you to please watch your language
[12:32] <fishscene> ah ok, I'll go check that out
[12:32] <fishscene> I looked in device manager at the resolutions supported
[12:32] <overridex> hello, I have an ubuntu machine set to have it's screensaver come on after 30 min, and it's monitor never to go to sleep, but the monitor keeps going to sleep, i've triple checked the power management settings in gnome, and rebooted, etc. yet it keeps snoozin - anyone have any idea why?  this is a pretty recent thing...
[12:32] <fishscene> and it reported a whole bunch
[12:32] <Liberty> pff
[12:33] <jjjjjjj> !backup
[12:33] <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
[12:33] <porcho> can one play rmvb files with subtitles on ubuntu?
[12:33] <bigjb> overridex: do you have it set to a blank screen?
[12:33] <XeniX> fishscene: yu'll probably find that it only has 640 x 480 in xorg.conf, this happened to me when I first installed 6.06
[12:33] <overridex> bigjb: the screensaver is set to the gltext one
[12:34] <Liberty> !eth0
[12:34] <overridex> bigjb: if i set it down to 5 minutes the screen saver does come on...
[12:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about eth0 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:34] <Liberty> !ethernet
[12:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ethernet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:34] <mooky> Liberty do you have a question ?
[12:34] <Ecnassianer> I'm trying to setup ipmasq between my Ubuntu box (connected ot the cable modem) and my windows box (off eth1). DHCP is working, and the computers can ping each other, but the Winbox can't ping the world.
[12:35] <Liberty> mooky: I can't get my ethernet card to work on a fresh installed ubuntu 5 server
[12:35] <Ecnassianer> mooky: What happens when you do ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0?
[12:35] <Ecnassianer> err, that was to liberty
[12:36] <mooky> it takes the interface down and back up
[12:36] <bigjb> overridex: :/ i have had it happen x in the past when it is set to blank with a crappy monitor but never with a active screen saver
[12:36] <fishscene> ok, here's what I'm reading in that config file:
[12:36] <fishscene> Depth		24
[12:36] <fishscene> 		Modes		"1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "720x400" "640x480"
[12:36] <Ecnassianer> mooky: Sorry, I misread libertys comment to you
[12:36] <mooky> ok
[12:36] <mooky> no problem
[12:36] <Liberty> Ecnassianer: when I do ifdown eth0, it says Interface eth0 not configured
[12:36] <overridex> bigjb: maybe i'll try setting the blanktime in xorg.conf and see if that helps...
[12:37] <mooky> Liberty because its not up
[12:37] <mooky> you can't take something down thats not up
[12:37] <cerebro> oi] 
[12:37] <Ecnassianer> What's ifup eth0 asy now?
[12:37] <Ecnassianer> err say
[12:37] <Liberty> yay
[12:37] <Liberty> works :)
[12:37] <Liberty> ty guys =] 
[12:37] <Ecnassianer> np
[12:38] <XeniX> fishscene: does it have those resolutions for all screen depths?
[12:38] <CamoCoatJoe> How do you turn on mouse keys?
[12:38] <fishscene> yes
[12:38] <exs> Hello. How do I unmount a device?
[12:38] <fishscene> 1- 24 bit depths
[12:38] <godfather> hey guys
[12:38] <fishscene> Hi godfather
[12:38] <Ecnassianer> exs: umount <device>
[12:38] <nozorro> fishscene: have you tried setting another default depth?
[12:38] <bbrazil> exs: umount /path/to/device
[12:38] <godfather> could anyone tell me a neroburning looklike program on linux?
[12:38] <fishscene> In the config file?
[12:39] <bbrazil> godfather: xcdroast
[12:39] <godfather> hi fishscene
[12:39] <ompaul> godfather, k3b or gnomebaker would do the trick
[12:39] <nozorro> fishscene: yes, xorg.conf
[12:39] <fishscene> System>Preferences>Screen resolution only lets me select 640x 480
[12:39] <godfather> i have k3b
[12:39] <fishscene> let me check
[12:39] <fishscene> I didn't see a default thing
[12:39] <visik7> how long does a changelog file take to be commited on changelogs.ubuntu.com and the page of the package on packages.ubuntu.com ? and are there any other places a part from the package where to get the changelog file ?
[12:39] <godfather> but it doesn't work very well
[12:39] <godfather> xcdroast?
[12:39] <nozorro> fishscene: search for 'DefaultDepth'
[12:39] <godfather> ok i will follow your trick
[12:39] <MaCa> Anyone using AIGLX and compiz? Just updated my system and now compiz is slow as hell. Any ideas how to fix this?
[12:40] <XeniX> fishscene: That is most unusual. Sorry dude, I have no idea :(
[12:40] <moquist> is there any way for me to use a standard Dapper install ISO *without* loading up X?
[12:40] <Ecnassianer> CamoCoatJoe, I went System->Preferences->Keyboard then pressed the Accessibility button at the bottom
[12:40] <secleinteer> moquist: don't think so, unless you mod it
[12:40] <fishscene> DefaultDepth	24
[12:40] <godfather> xcdroast burn dvd too?
[12:40] <Ecnassianer> CamoCoatJoe, but there's probably a more direct way to find them
[12:40] <lontra> what lame package do i need install to extract a cd with soundjuicer to mp3 format?  lame?
[12:40] <secleinteer> just use the alternate instead (i know you want the standard)
[12:41] <fishscene> and that's all it says, just "DefaultDepth	24"
[12:41] <bbrazil> moquist: in theory, yes. You could boot in single use mode, but it's probably not too useful
[12:41] <exs> PHONE CARD
[12:41] <nozorro> fishscene: try setting it to 16 and log out and back in
[12:41] <fishscene> mmk
[12:41] <exs> root@exs-laptop:/home/exs# umount /medua/PHONE CARD
[12:41] <exs> umount: /medua/PHONE: not found
[12:41] <exs> says it's not found, but its' there
[12:41] <CamoCoatJoe> Ecnassianer:How do you do that when the mouse buttons aren't working?
[12:41] <exs> umount: /media/PHONE: not found
[12:41] <exs> umount: CARD: not found
[12:41] <printk> exs: is it /medua or /media?
[12:41] <moquist> secleinteer, bbrazil: Hmm. Seems like that would be a good thing to have on there, so I could type the magic key-combo and do useful things without waiiiiiiittttttiiiinnnnngggg for X, which I usually don't even want. :p
[12:41] <printk> exs: when you type mount by itself what does it say is mounted?
[12:42] <Ecnassianer> exs try putting /media/phone card in single quotes: '/media/PHONE CARD'
[12:42] <moquist> but thanks for confirming what I suspected. :)
[12:42] <Ecnassianer> CamoCoatJoe, Ah, I misunderstood your question.... So you can't click at all?
[12:42] <fishscene> bummer... can't save unless I have root permissions
[12:42] <bbrazil> moquist: well, it should be there by default
[12:42] <yugge> My internet connection is kinda weak, And drop from time to time. before I've run kcontrol and disable/reenable the device. is there some easier way to do this?
[12:42] <exs> Ecnassianer:  you're genius
[12:42] <Ecnassianer> I'm trying to setup ipmasq between my Ubuntu box (connected ot the cable modem) and my windows box (off eth1). DHCP is working, and the computers can ping each other, but the Winbox can't ping the world.
[12:43] <nozorro> fishscene: yes, do this: 'gksudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[12:43] <Ecnassianer> exs Not really, just been doing this for a few years :)
[12:43] <XeniX> fishscene: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf will open the file in gedit with root permissions
[12:43] <fishscene> in a shell?
[12:43] <CamoCoatJoe> Ecnassianer:Yeah, it's a bad mouse.
[12:43] <nozorro> fishscene: yes
[12:43] <Ecnassianer> CamoCoatJoe, As in, it never worked? Or it only doesn't work in Ubuntu?
[12:43] <edilor> oi

[12:45] <CamoCoatJoe> Ecnassianer:It's an old mouse that moves, but the buttons don't work on anything anymore.
[12:45] <Ecnassianer> CamoCoatJoe, I see... thats a tricky problem... lemme google a bit
[12:45] <lontra> what package do i need for to extract cds in mp3 format?
[12:46] <CamoCoatJoe> Ecnassianer:Thanks.

[12:49] <CamoCoatJoe> Ecnassianer:Does it say anything about a keyboard shortcut in the system preferences?

[12:50] <Ecnassianer> CamoCoatJoe, yeah, but Keyboard shortcuts isn't what you're looking for. Thats just for hotkeys and stuff

[12:52] <caseyomah> I have a peer-to-peer network and my Linux box sees my M$ box, and can login to SMB on it through it's IP, but not it's name, help?
[12:52] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: "Filesystems used by the system (/...) must be reformatted for use by this installer"
[12:52] <rapha> That's RIDICULOUS!
[12:52] <godfather> it's strange it's late
[12:52] <CamoCoatJoe> Ecnassianer:Thanks.

[12:54] <damnhil> I need help configuring samba. All the files I got from my windows PC have the execute bit set. How can I configure the default access of files copied from a samba share?
[12:55] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, ... it's an OS installer!
[12:55] <fishscene> sorry, could you give me the shell command to open it again?
[12:55] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, of course it needs a clean root filesystem!
[12:55] <bbrazil> damnhil: there's 3 settings for that, "man smb.conf" should tell you which
[12:55] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: I moved everything in that partition to /.backup. It's EMPTY.
[12:55] <BHSPitMonkey> heh
[12:55] <bbrazil> damnhil: one is already disabled iirc
[12:55] <nozorro> fishscene: gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:55] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: essentially, the "OS Installer" is second-guessing me in its "advanced" mode. Which just isn't RIGHT.
[12:55] <CamoCoatJoe> Ecnassianer:Now how do you get to a command line without a mouse...
[12:56] <rapha> CamoCoatJoe: Ctrl-Alt-F
[12:56] <rapha> CamoCoatJoe: Ctrl-Alt-F1
[12:56] <nozorro> fishscene: if you want to edit it, that is ... you don't need gksu to view it
[12:56] <aodx> how do i open the gconf-editor?
[12:57] <XeniX> typ gconf-editor in a shell

[12:58] <aodx> why can't i just execute it from the terminal
[12:58] <rapha> aodx: press it and thou shalt see

[12:59] <damnhil> bbrazil: are you saying modifying /etc/samba/smb.conf would affect file permissions copied from a windows PC?
[12:59] <UKMatt> has anyone ever used F-Spot?
[12:59] <D00B3Y> anyone else have any recommendations?
[01:00] <ikonia> F-prot ?
[01:00] <ikonia> or F-Spot
[01:00] <fishscene> Question: Do I need to set a "DefaultResolution"?
[01:00] <bbrazil> damnhil: not quite, samba uses the execute bits to represent special, hidden and archive
[01:00] <fishscene> Because there is no feild for that
[01:00] <spuddogg> damnhill, you having problems with samba?
[01:00] <HeXiOn> I have installed lirc and all is correct, but this week I compiled 2.6.17 kernel myself, and now my remote works strangely... theres an unknown process that catch my remote control signals even when lirc is stopped. Anyone knows what's happening here and how to solve it? (I want that only LIRC controls my remote control)
[01:00] <UKMatt> F-Spot, it's a picture program like picasa
[01:00] <nozorro> nozorro: F-Prot is an antivirus program
[01:00] <ikonia> nope
[01:00] <sergio2> how do i tar.gz a directory?
[01:00] <sergio2> is tar -zxv dir -f file.tar.gz the correct way?
[01:00] <edilor> oi
[01:00] <Ecnassianer> I'm trying to setup ipmasq between my Ubuntu box (connected ot the cable modem) and my windows box (off eth1). DHCP is working, and the computers can ping each other, but the Winbox can't ping the world. Anybody wanna help me troubleshoot it?
[01:00] <ikonia> spuddogg have you got no futher with your samba config ?
[01:01] <nozorro> note to myself :-)
[01:01] <UKMatt> It's f-spot, they're adding it to Edgy, i installed it and everything works fine but it can't view any pictures after i open the thumbnail for some reason
[01:01] <ikonia> Ecnassianer /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[01:01] <spuddogg> ikonia, yes i got it all working...had to run sudo smbpasswd -a [username]  to make a new password for the user
[01:02] <HeXiOn> \join #lirc
[01:02] <damnhil> spuddogg, bbrazil: I have a windows share in another PC. My ubuntu PC is not running samba server. I mount the windows share and copy files over to this PC. All the files I copied over had execute bit set. How can I change that to not set?
[01:02] <spuddogg> ikonia, it is working fine now
[01:02] <deep__> "tar -zxvf file.tar.gz dir" ?
[01:02] <ikonia> ahhh adding a user
[01:02] <ikonia> well done
[01:02] <nozorro> fishscene: hmmm, maybe because you have a flat screen ... sorry no further ideas atm
[01:02] <ikonia> well spotted
[01:02] <gnomefreak> UKMatt: edgy is in #ubuntu+1
[01:02] <viator> fspot seems to work fine
[01:02] <viator> for me in dapper
[01:02] <spuddogg> damnhil, you got me man
[01:02] <bbrazil> damnhil: I guess point smbmount to a config file with the relavent options tweaked OR see if there's a umask option
[01:02] <UKMatt> gnomefreak, no i know, i'm in dapper i'm just saying that this program is one they are adding to edgy
[01:02] <fishscene> hmm... but is there supposed to be a defaultresolution field?
[01:02] <gnomefreak> added
[01:03] <ikonia> why are you asking about edgy software in here ?
[01:03] <ikonia> if you know your not meant to
[01:03] <sergio2> deep_ i wann compress a directoty not into a tar.gz file
[01:03] <damnhil> spuddogg, bbrazil: how do I fix these files' permission? I want to remove the execute bit set on the files
[01:03] <Ecnassianer> ikonia: Command not found
[01:03] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: could trying to resize a partition hang the Live CD?
[01:03] <ikonia> damn chmod ?
[01:03] <ikonia> Ecnassianer its not a command
[01:03] <nozorro> fishscene: default resolution, no. default depth, yes. but i was asking you about the frequency settings for the monitor
[01:03] <ikonia> its a config kernel parameter
[01:03] <ikonia> cat it
[01:03] <fishscene> ohh
[01:03] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: or does the mouse just not move during the resizing?
[01:03] <ikonia> see what it says
[01:03] <spuddogg> damnhil, can you go sudo chmod, and change permissions that way
[01:03] <nozorro> fishscene: the default res. is the first one give for each depth
[01:03] <bbrazil> damnhil: find -type f -print 0 | xargs -0 chmod a-x
[01:04] <fishscene> I couldn't find the vertical/ horizontal fields in the config file
[01:04] <spuddogg> damnhil, or sudo nautilus, then right click and change permissions with a GUI
[01:04] <Ecnassianer> ikonia: "1"
[01:04] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, it probably should be moving. is your hdd light blinking/lit? does num lock successfully turn on and off? can you push ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[01:04] <ikonia> ok - so thats set
[01:04] <nozorro> fishscene: not under the "Monitor" section?
[01:04] <ikonia> so your config is probably your iptables rules
[01:04] <sergio2> nobody helps me in a simple question?
[01:04] <spuddogg> sergio2, whats the question
[01:04] <sergio2> i need to compress a dir into a tar.gz file
[01:05] <sergio2> ho can i do that?
[01:05] <fishscene> but my flatscreen supports 60hz and 1600x1200. Also in System>Preferences>Screen resolution, it reports 60hz
[01:05] <BHSPitMonkey> sergio2, right click on it...
[01:05] <spuddogg> sergio2, damn man, i dont know
[01:05] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: not sure about numlock. It's too old and the light too faint. But the HD LED doesn't do anything. The progress bar stopped moving about 2 minutes ago.
[01:05] <sergio2> i am trying failing commands qith tar
[01:05] <BHSPitMonkey> sergio2, "Create Archive"
[01:05] <fishscene> Nozorro: I PM'd you
[01:05] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: no going to console either
[01:05] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, well, I'm going to assume it's locked up.
[01:05] <nozorro> fishscene: not getting anything
[01:05] <rapha> Too bad.
[01:06] <rapha> Then I'll reset and see what happened to the partition.
[01:06] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, I'd use a text installer, maybe. and keep in mind, it's edgy... nobody said it would work
[01:06] <voici> hi, i am trying to mount a windows shared folder to a mountpoint on my ubuntu in a way that would allow normal users to write to it. mounting works fine (-t smbfs) but only root is allowed to write to it. i configured the folder in windows to be writeable by everybody. all files (when looked from ubuntu) are rwx for root and just rx for group/others. mount says it's mounted rw. what can i do? tnx.
[01:06] <ikonia> -user option
[01:06] <ikonia> @ voici
[01:06] <fishscene> Nozorro, do you have AIM? or some other fast method of contacting you?
[01:06] <nozorro> fishscene: nope, sorry
[01:06] <clearzen> sergio2: tar -cvf images.tar <directory name> I believe
[01:06] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: I know the latter. But I actually had been wanting to try out the graphical installer. Now I know I'll never download that CD again. Only the alternative one.
[01:06] <fishscene> Alright, Thanks anyway.
[01:07] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: actually, why isn't the text installer also shipped on the Live CD?
[01:07] <nozorro> fishscene: welcome. -- anyway as i said ... no experience with flat screens
[01:07] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, I don't know, I consider it a design flaw.
[01:07] <fishscene> lol
[01:07] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, are you using Knot 1?
[01:07] <rapha> Hum
[01:07] <Subhuman> rapha, i think for space reasons
[01:07] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: should be knot 2
[01:07] <clearzen>  sergio2: tar -cvf <directory name>.tar  I believe ***correction***
[01:07] <BHSPitMonkey> oh
[01:07] <Subhuman> the live cd is pretty full.
[01:07] <rapha> Subhuman: the image doesn't even have 700MB
[01:07] <BHSPitMonkey> I installed knot 1 the other day, but nothing later
[01:07] <BHSPitMonkey> sorry
[01:07] <fishscene> Nozorro, I thought flat screens would be handled pretty much the same way as CRT's, but I could be wrong
[01:07] <rapha> no prob
[01:08] <fishscene> But thanks for the help
[01:08] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, did you confirm the md5sum of your iso?
[01:08] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: yup, it's fine
[01:08] <BHSPitMonkey> hmm
[01:08] <voici> ikonia: yes i already read that in the man. it says that it would write to /etc/mtab after the first mount with the user option, allowing the specified user to mount the volume afterwards. but when trying to mount it as my user i get: only root can do that
[01:08] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, it'd also be a good idea to do "Check CD for defects" on the target system
[01:08] <nozorro> fishscene: it was just sort of an idea ... because normally the freq. settings are always there
[01:09] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: kay, i can try that
[01:09] <fishscene> Nozorro: yea, I thought I saw some frequency settings in there before, butnow I can't find it. I'll keep poking around though
[01:09] <fishscene> <--- AFK
[01:09] <nozorro> fishscene: and they can limit your display if the autoconfig. did it wrong
[01:09] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, and my last little tidbit of advice... if you just wanted to try the installer out, why not use a vm?
[01:09] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: also that with the 2 video adapters is definitely a bug. Because the BIOS and the entire boot screen are using the other card.
[01:09] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, take a look at your xorg.conf
[01:09] <SocratesJedi> Hi there; I'm trying to compile an nVidia driver, but since my kernel was built under GCC 4.1 and my current GCC version is 4.0.x, the kernel won't accept the module.  I've tried to get gcc via 'sudo apt-get install gcc-4.1' but it tells me the repository is broken.  Can someone point me in the direction of how to fix this?
[01:10] <nozorro> fishscene: ... meaning if the monitor wasn't detected, which is often the case
[01:10] <D00B3Y> how do I make windows a little more transparent? not opaque.
[01:10] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: I didn't _only_ want to try out the installer, but the entire Edgy :) ... and since I've got Dapper on my main computer (here)...
[01:10] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, I ran into a similar problem with my friend's computer, but he had an onboard and an nvidia card, and xorg.conf set up the onboard (even though it was bios-disabled)
[01:10] <Ecnassianer> I'm trying to setup ipmasq between my Ubuntu box (connected ot the cable modem) and my windows box (off eth1). DHCP is working, and the computers can ping each other, but the Winbox can't ping the world. And /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward = 1 Anybody wanna help me troubleshoot it?
[01:10] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, still doesn't make a vm a bad idea
[01:10] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: I have no influence on the Live CD's xorg.conf. It's only a prob with the Edgy Live CD.
[01:10] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: no AIGLX in a VM
[01:11] <nozorro> Ecnassianer: install firestarter, an easy to config firewall/forwarding solution
[01:11] <BHSPitMonkey> is your release supposed to have aiglx out of the box?
[01:11] <spuddogg> Does anyone know why suddenly I cannot play AVIs?  Earlier today I was watching them just fine, now I get an error telling me to add codecs...I have already added all the ones listed in the howto.  Any ideas?
[01:11] <AngryElf> how cna i convert ogg to mp3?
[01:11] <Ecnassianer> spuddogg, can you play the exact same avi's you were watching this morning?
[01:11] <nozorro> Ecnassianer: there's more to it than just the proc setting
[01:11] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: my release? From what I've read on the forums, AIGLX is enabled by default in all of Edgy? Was that misinformation?
[01:11] <voici> spuddogg: you got all the gstreamer plugins ? good, bad, ugly, etc?
[01:12] <spuddogg> ecnassianer, yes
[01:12] <myUserName> i need to know how to remove the grub splash screen
[01:12] <spuddogg> voici, yes
[01:12] <BHSPitMonkey> rapha, hmm, I'm not sure. I didn't think it was in Knot 1.
[01:12] <gnomefreak> rapha: no that is correcct and please move to #ubuntu+1 to talk about edgy
[01:12] <caseyomah> spuddogg, Not all AVIs are created equal, it may be a codec you missed.
[01:12] <Ecnassianer> nozorro, I know, I just figured that'd be the first thing someone would ask about :)
[01:12] <BHSPitMonkey> heh, that's cool, you can get vmware images of dapper on their site
[01:12] <spuddogg> caseyomah, i have added all the gstreamer plugins, from 3 repositories
[01:12] <bannedbruenig> spuddogg, perhaps it is divx? that got me for a while before i figured out I needed that codec
[01:12] <fishscene> Nozorro: How would I poke around in the autoconfig?
[01:13] <Ecnassianer> spuddogg, Not all AVI's are encoded with the same codec. Hunt down the codec you need for the new avi
[01:13] <Ecnassianer> AngryElf, google "ogg to mp3 linux"
[01:13] <spuddogg> bannedbruenig, what codec did you end up using?
[01:13] <Ecnassianer> AngryElf, There's a HOWTO right near that top that I found useful a few months ago
[01:13] <bannedbruenig> something called libdivx binary or some such
[01:13] <rapha> gnomefreak: okay, sorry and thanks. I'll do that.
[01:13] <nozorro> Ecnassianer: there's some command-line thing to re-run the autoconfig, but don't ask me. this is one of the weak points of ubuntu
[01:13] <bannedbruenig> spuddogg, I believe it was this one http://ftp.sk.debian-unofficial.org/debian/pool/restricted/d/divx-binary-i386/libdivx0-binary_6.1.1-1duo1_i386.deb
[01:14] <BHSPitMonkey> spuddogg, go to a terminal, find your .avi file, and do "file name-of-video.avi"
[01:14] <bannedbruenig> but then again it has been a while
[01:14] <spuddogg> bannedbruenig, thanks...I'll try that one
[01:14] <D00B3Y> how do I make windows a little more transparent? not opaque.
[01:14] <BHSPitMonkey> that'll tell you how it'e encoded
[01:14] <spuddogg> bannedbruenig, BAH!
[01:14] <spuddogg> bannedbruenig, wont work...its 386 not 64bit
[01:15] <bannedbruenig> oh didn't know you were using 64 bit
[01:15] <rapha> BHSPitMonkey: old partition is still intact. Trying manually now, with resize_reiserfs
[01:15] <bannedbruenig> that might pose a problem, some codecs might only be available for 32 bit
[01:16] <clearzen> you can force 32 bit with dpkg-force_architechure. I think that is the command.
[01:16] <myUserName> I need help my laptop does not shutdown when i shutdown it just closes EVERYTHING and leaves a black screen *does not turn the power\battery off* how do i fix?
[01:16] <clearzen> I know dpkg can do it

[01:17] <Ecnassianer> nozorro, Firestarter for the win! I can ping the outside world. Gonna track down why my DNS isn't working now
[01:17] <Ecnassianer> Thanks :
[01:17] <Ecnassianer> :)
[01:17] <bulio|> do any msn bouncers exist?
 like psybnc, but for msn?
[01:17] <nozorro> Ecnassianer: fine
[01:17] <damnhil> I wonder if the find -perm is broken in ubuntu
[01:17] <HeXiOn> when I try to remove a module (ir_common) it complains with an error (ERROR: Module ir_common is in use by bttv) How can I remove that module without removing bttv?????
[01:18] <drezha> does anyone have any good backup utilities for ubuntu?
[01:18] <bannedbruenig> !backup
[01:18] <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
[01:18] <drezha> was going to write a script myself
[01:18] <bannedbruenig> drezha, use the first link, make a script from that advice
[01:19] <drezha> right cheers
[01:19] <drezha> checking it now
[01:19] <mcquaid> hello, I'm finally about to ditch my crt and hook up an lcd (but with the standard vga connector not dvi), want to avoid any issues if possible
[01:20] <fishscene> ummm
[01:20] <linux_user400354> is the hardware support for x86 not very good?
[01:20] <linux_user400354> wrong channel
[01:20] <fishscene> Mcquaid, make sure your current screen resolution, depth, and refresh rate are set so that your LCD can support it
[01:20] <mcquaid> one I did manually was hack in the HorizSync  and VertRefresh in xorg.conf for my crt as ubuntu was not using optimal settings and I was not getting the highest refresh rate available for my crt
[01:21] <mcquaid> should I comment those out first and only have the native res available to this new lcd?
[01:21] <Crippy-Boy> Reconfigure X when you get a new monitor should be the easiest solution
[01:22] <bulio|> does a command line msn client exist?
[01:22] <fishscene> Mcquaid: do you have a default resolution field in your xorg.conf?
[01:22] <Crippy-Boy> bulio| tmsnc
[01:22] <mcquaid> fishscene, I see default depth, but not default res
[01:23] <dashriKe> anybody here use Ubuntu's ShipIt thing?
[01:23] <metalhedd> dashriKe: yes
[01:23] <metalhedd> surprisingly quick delivery
[01:23] <bannedbruenig> dashriKe, yeah took 5 weeks
[01:23] <dashriKe> I ordered some about 6 weeks ago, but they still haven't come
[01:23] <dashriKe> is this common?
[01:23] <fishscene> mcquaid, same here, I'm having issues with my screen resolution right now. I'm stuck at 640x480 and I can't change it. And I do have an LCD (SyncMaster 213T)
[01:23] <mcquaid> currently have Modes           "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480", I assume I should just have 1024x768 for the lcd
[01:24] <bannedbruenig> dashriKe, yeah long delays are common
[01:24] <dashriKe> thats dumb :P
[01:24] <nozorro> fishscene: Crippy-Boy seems to know how to re-autoconfigure -- or?
[01:24] <mcquaid> fishscene, what modes do you currently have in your xorg.conf?
[01:24] <trygg> How can i check what cpu i have?
[01:24] <fishscene> dashrike, they say about 6-8 weeks for delivery
[01:24] <bannedbruenig> unfortunate but when stuff is free I guess you have to give a litte leeway
[01:24] <dashriKe> yeh I imagine so
[01:24] <b_52Centos> hi
[01:24] <bannedbruenig> I ordered a free book once and it took nearly 8 months
[01:25] <b_52Centos> some one know if the 5.1 ubuntu release have mysql version 4/5 ?
[01:25] <HeXiOn> please somebody help me... how can I avoid a module loading other module???
[01:25] <fishscene> Mcquaid: SubSection "Display"
[01:25] <fishscene> 		Depth		24
[01:25] <fishscene> 		Modes		"1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "720x400" "640x480"
[01:25] <dashriKe> they should make something where you could run a live CD of something and stream an ISO or something of one of the official mirrors or something, install that way
[01:25] <dashriKe> I said "something" too many times there
[01:26] <fishscene> dashrike, you can dowload the ISO's, burn them, then install..
[01:26] <Crippy-Boy> Yes, it made my brain hurt reading it.
[01:26] <fishscene> lol
[01:26] <fishscene> Hi Crippy-Boy
[01:26] <Crippy-Boy> lo
[01:26] <dashriKe> true, but I have bad luck with burning CDs etc
[01:26] <dashriKe> maybe I'll do that still
[01:26] <ATravelingGeek> burn at the slowest speed
[01:26] <fishscene> ah, I know what that's like, dashrike
[01:26] <dashriKe> I usually do
[01:26] <fishscene> Crippy-Boy, I was wondering if you could help me poke around in autoconfig to set my screen resolution
[01:27] <fishscene> I sent you a private message, but apprently it's not working
[01:28] <Firebird8> whats the default mysql password?
[01:28] <nozorro> Crippy-Boy: fishscene wants to re-run the xorg autoconfig, could you help?
[01:28] <mcquaid> is HorizSync VertRefresh even applicable to lcd monitors?
[01:28] <fishscene> I don't have those fields in my config file, Mcquaid
[01:28] <fishscene> and I'm running and LCD
[01:28] <mcquaid> since they don't actually have a range, just one refresh rate
[01:28] <nozorro> mcquaid: that was what i was asking myself too
[01:28] <mcquaid> ya i didn't think so, i put those in for my crt
[01:29] <mcquaid> it says in xorg that if you've ever modified your xorg but would like it to be updated automatically again run:
[01:29] <mcquaid> sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[01:30] <fishscene> I did that actually, but nothing changed
[01:30] <mcquaid> cause I'm thinking since, I mucked with my xorg.conf, it's not going to touch it and I'm going to run into problems with the lcd
[01:30] <M_Fatih> hi all
[01:30] <fishscene> Hi Fatih
[01:30] <Gunnar> Firebird8 : Here's a pointer to the docs : https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/databases.html
[01:30] <SlackRat> is there still an option on dapper for expert installation and a root account?
[01:30] <drezha> bannedbruenig: I use that guide but get tar: Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive
[01:30] <Firebird8> Gunnar, i got it
[01:30] <drezha> Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information.
[01:31] <fishy> I get an error saying there's no package "gtk+-2.0" found. And it doesn't exist. How do I get ./configure working?
[01:31] <bannedbruenig> drezha, you need to put a / at the end of the command, you may be forgetting that
[01:31] <mcquaid> ah, i'm just going to backup my xorg.conf, take out horizsync and vertrefresh and see what happens
[01:31] <drezha> ah yeah thanks
[01:31] <metalhedd> ok I got the proprietary Nvidia driver installed and working but not it wont allow me to switch to any other VT. ctrl+alt+F1 - F6 just give me a blank screen
[01:31] <fishy> When I do ./configure, I get an error saying it needs package "gtk+-2.0." I can't find it in Synaptic - which package is it?
[01:32] <mcquaid> metalhedd, I had that same problem ages ago, I don't remember what I did to fix it, just letting you know your not alone with that problem
[01:32] <nozorro> fishy: libgtk2-dev maybe
[01:32] <metalhedd> mcquaid: you did get it working though?
[01:32] <mcquaid> yes
[01:32] <M_Fatih> i have a problem. i'm trying to run xgl on my intel 855 video card with aiglx.. i have installed & run with aiglx driver & installed other packages like gnome-copmiz-manager compiz.. when i click "GL Desktop" option in my systray gnome-compiz's right click menu, windows changes & borders hides, there is no close buttons, no borders.. :( and xgl abilities not running.. how can i fix this & run xgl?
[01:32] <fishy> nozorro: I tried installing that, and I get an infinite loop of dependencies...dependency after dependency....
[01:32] <metalhedd> any ideas on maybe even a search term?
[01:32] <metalhedd> i dont know where to start
[01:33] <nozorro> fishy: libgtk2.0-dev -- and yes, it will pull in a lot of other dependencies, this is normal
[01:33] <bbrazil> metalhedd: I know I had that problem a good while back on Woody. It's a "Don't do that then"
[01:33] <AngryElf> anyone know a way to convert ogg to mp3?
[01:34] <nozorro> fishy:  ... as long as you don't really get into a *loop* in the proper sense
[01:34] <mcquaid> metalhedd, if the ubuntu forums turn up nothing try http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=4b980d1fe3c4f02c98c42a4e3c9e517a&f=14
[01:34] <mcquaid> metalhedd, but no sorry, I'm not sure what keywords I used to find my answer
[01:34] <fishy> nozorro: I get this: libgtk2.0-dev: Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (=2.8.17-1ubuntu5) but 2.8.18-0ubuntu2 is to be installed || Depends: libpango1.0-dev but it is not going to be installed
[01:34] <mcquaid> anyway I'll be back
[01:34] <marshall> does anybody know how to use dc++?
[01:34] <fishscene> I'm just going to reinstall Ubuntu and see what happens
[01:34] <fishscene> Thanks again for your help everyone =)
[01:34] <fishscene> AIM SN: Fishscene
[01:35] <marshall> fishscene: np man
[01:35] <nozorro> fishy: no idea why this is so, but you could try to fulfill the dependencies manually
[01:35] <fishy> I tried that.
[01:35] <fishy> Gives me more errors.
[01:35] <marshall> does anybody know how to use dc++?
[01:36] <drezha> DC++ is only really good for sharing file on a LAN I found
[01:36] <fishy> nozorro: How would I fulfill an older version anyway?
[01:37] <drezha> bannedbruenig: Does tar allow for just a couple of folders? I want a document backup one.
[01:37] <drezha> dont fancy adding exclude then lst all folders
[01:38] <marshall> drezha: damn
[01:38] <nozorro> fishy: hm, no idea, really.
[01:38] <cafuego> drezha: just tar the folders you want.
[01:38] <bannedbruenig> drezha, well instead of doing tar --exclude all the stuff  and then /, just do tar /whatever you want /whatever else you want, you get the idea
[01:39] <FurryNemesis> nrrrgh crap
[01:39] <bannedbruenig> that guide was for a full system backup
[01:39] <nozorro> fishy: for package handling, you might try asking on some debian channel
[01:39] <drezha> right
[01:40] <drezha> tar -cvpzf /backup.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys /
[01:40] <drezha> dam
[01:40] <aluno_> dae
[01:40] <aluno_> dae
[01:40] <spuddogg> Might anyone know why I can play a movie with MPlayer, but not with Totem?  And why I can play MP3s with Rythmbox but not with Totem?
[01:40] <overridden> say, how the fuck is it possible my firewall caught like 10 outwards connections on port 80, when all I use is xchat ?
[01:41] <spuddogg> !language
[01:41] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:41] <overridden> sry
[01:41] <spuddogg> lol
[01:41] <spuddogg> overridden, doesn't offend me, but rules are rules
[01:42] <FurryNemesis> damn hell and crossfire
[01:42] <overridden> I know, but it's to express an emotion
[01:42] <bannedbruenig> I don't care for the language police either but someone has some reason
[01:42] <spuddogg> Does anyone know why I can play a movie with MPlayer, but not with Totem?  And why I can play MP3s with Rythmbox but not with Totem?
[01:42] <overridden> totem uses gstreamer
[01:42] <spuddogg> overridden, i've installed literally all the packages that mention gstreamer
[01:42] <FurryNemesis> does anyone know how to configure xchat so I can join #ubuntu-offtopic and #politics on startup as well as #ubuntu?
[01:42] <drezha> so this should save a tar file to my home directory and only backup my home document folder?
[01:43] <drezha> tar -cvpzf /home/chris/ /home/chris/Documents
[01:43] <overridden> if you want totem to play those, install totem-xine
[01:43] <Abst> FurryNemesis: Don't put spaces after the commas :)
[01:43] <nozorro> spuddogg: but totem can also use xine as a backend
[01:43] <FurryNemesis> Argh
[01:43] <Tennessee> Hi all ... what's the fastest way to test whether two files have the same content or not?
[01:43] <Abst> Tennessee: Md5?
[01:43] <overridden> md5 hash Tennessee
[01:43] <FurryNemesis> thanks Abst , it's always a syntax error with me
[01:43] <bbrazil> Tennessee: cmp
[01:43] <nozorro> spuddogg: totem-xine will uninstall totem-gstreamer though
[01:43] <Abst> FurryNemesis: Heh I only figured it out recently
[01:44] <amonkey> how does one get azureus 2.5 on ubuntu? someone said i should just replace Azureus2.jar with the new one but that gave me a weird error
[01:44] <spuddogg> nozorro, ok, let me check that out.  thanks
[01:44] <Crippy-Boy> amonkey: weird error?
[01:45] <overridden> lol, every outwards connection attempt is from a different .gov
[01:45] <FurryNemesis> yay it worked
[01:45] <nozorro> spuddogg: for xine to work well (movies ...), you still need to install the win32codecs, thos don't get pulled in automatically by totem-xine
[01:45] <amonkey> Crippy-Boy, NoClassDefFoundError, doesn't come up when i use the package's jar, only with 2.5's jar. says on the forums just replacing it should work though
[01:46] <Tennessee> Abst: Is there a linux utility to do that inside a script, or do I need to roll my own?
[01:46] <IndyBC> Ubuntu has a port scanning tool? I thought port scanning is illegal. Or just in America?
[01:46] <amonkey> Why would port scanning be illegal?
[01:46] <Tennessee> bbrazil: Does cmp use md5? I don't want to see the diff, just know if there's a difference
[01:46] <Abst> The open channels thing?
[01:46] <nozorro> IndyBC: a simple one that's included in the Network Tools installed by default
[01:47] <spuddogg> nozorro, i assume i should run apt-get install ???
[01:47] <IndyBC> nozorro: I know. Isn't port scanning illegal?
[01:47] <nozorro> IndyBC: that depends :-)
[01:47] <spuddogg> nozorro, what package?  sudo apt-get install [package name] 
[01:47] <Crippy-Boy> Yeah it should work, Download the new jar, rename it Azureus2.jar and replace the one in /usr/share/java, should owkr fine.
[01:47] <IndyBC> nozorro: on what?
[01:47] <Madpilot> IndyBC, depends who you scan, and why, I imagine...
[01:47] <overridden> LOL, never mind, I think it's the "check update"
[01:47] <IndyBC> ok
[01:47] <Crippy-Boy> work*
[01:47] <nozorro> spuddogg: yes, but lemme check for the win32codecs that you'll also need
[01:47] <amonkey> Crippy-Boy, that's exactly what i did, gonna try to redownload
[01:48] <spuddogg> nozorro, cool thanks
[01:49] <GianLuigiBuffon> hey guys! do anybody knows how to run worms armageddon? I make the steps but no way
[01:49] <overridden> dosbox maybe GianLuigiBuffon ?
[01:49] <GianLuigiBuffon> dosbox?
[01:49] <GianLuigiBuffon> whats that
[01:49] <nozorro> spuddogg: for instructions, search for w32codecs at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats -- those require a non-standard installation method
[01:50] <GianLuigiBuffon> it request me the CD
[01:50] <mcquaid> hey all, ok back with lcd hooked up, but only 640x480 :(
[01:50] <GianLuigiBuffon> lol I have the iso mounted in cdrom0
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> !dosbox
[01:50] <ubotu> dosbox: A x86 emulator with Tandy/Herc/CGA/EGA/VGA graphics, sound and DOS. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.63-2.1 (dapper), package size 371 kB, installed size 1028 kB
[01:50] <hlabs> i need some help. I want to share files between my ubunutu pc and my windows pc
[01:50] <spuddogg> nozorro, thanks man
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> hlabs,  you would use the samba tools for that.
[01:50] <hlabs> but i want the files to be stored on the ubuntu pc
[01:50] <GianLuigiBuffon> and how I use that
[01:50] <mcquaid> i ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg and it created a new xorg.conf
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> hlabs,  you can access the users home dirs from the windows pc.
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> !samba
[01:50] <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
[01:50] <hlabs> no i cant
[01:50] <nozorro> spuddogg: totem-xine can be installed the normal way, just enable the required repos
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> hlabs,  you CAN - if you set it up
[01:51] <hlabs> the windows pc is unable to locate the ubuntu pc on my LAN
[01:51] <mcquaid> and it says Monitor         "SyncMaster" so it got the model name right
[01:51] <GianLuigiBuffon> what should I do with doxbox?
[01:51] <GianLuigiBuffon> dosbox
[01:51] <mcquaid> but I can't go higher than 640x480
[01:51] <Dr_Willis> hlabs,   its possible you got the windows firewall set wqhere its blocking it. or you dont have samba set up correctly yet
[01:51] <spuddogg> nozorro, that is already installed
[01:52] <sc0tt> someone remind me of the xgl channel?
[01:52] <hlabs> ok so how can i set it up right.
[01:52] <sc0tt> :P
[01:52] <hlabs> better yet is there any ftp server that i can use.
[01:52] <Crippy-Boy> #ubuntu-xgl
[01:52] <GianLuigiBuffon> worms works on windows
[01:52] <GianLuigiBuffon> lol
[01:52] <sc0tt> thanks Crippy-Boy  :)
[01:52] <Dr_Willis> hlabs,  check out the samba wiki pages, and the dozens of samba guides online.
[01:52] <Dr_Willis>  http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html  for a start
[01:52] <hlabs> is there any ftp server software in the repo i can use
[01:53] <Libb0rty> isn't there ProFTPd?
[01:53] <Dr_Willis> hlabs,  several ftp servers  do an 'apt-cache search ftp'
[01:53] <Zambezi> If my monitor suddenly becomes little purple, is the something wrong with the graficcard (ATI) or the monitor?
[01:53] <Crippy-Boy> use sftp if you can instead,
[01:54] <Dr_Willis> Zambezi,  this a crt?
[01:54] <nozorro> Zambezi: yes, very likely a hardware problem, i.e. your monitor
[01:54] <Zambezi> Dr_Willis, TFT.
[01:54] <Dr_Willis> Zambezi,   you mean its a LCD screen?
[01:55] <Dr_Willis> Zambezi,  that would be odd that it would change color. Hmm..
[01:55] <Zambezi> Dr_Willis, It's a flatscreen. The name is TFT. It's a Dell monitor.
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> Zambezi,  could try some live cd's see if it affects all the disrtos.  Ive neverheard of a lcd geting a purple tinge. (which seems like would be the case if the red started acting up)
[01:56] <Zambezi> Dr_Willis, I have problem reading things in red. Sometimes it flash in different colours, but now it's just light purple.
[01:56] <nozorro> Zambezi: did you just install the graphics driver from ati?
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> Zambezi,  it 'flashes' collor changes? That almost sounds like a bad/twisted/pinched cable.
[01:56] <Dr_Willis> Zambezi,  i Have seen that befor.
[01:56] <fishy> When I try to install libgtk-dev2.0, I get this error: "Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (=2.8.17-1ubuntu5) but 2.8.18-0ubuntu2 is to be installed."
[01:56] <fishy> Why?
[01:57] <Zambezi> nozorro, No. I installed the ones that came with Ubuntu Dapper and Easy ubuntu.
[01:57] <spuddogg> nozorro, any more ideas on this?
[01:57] <nozorro> Zambezi: so it's the cable or the monitor's innards, likely
[01:57] <spuddogg> nozorro, also, in case you were wondering why i want to use totem...its because mplayer wont let me FF/REW
[01:58] <Zambezi> Dr_Willis, It was a little bit loose. It's better, but not completly.
[01:58] <nozorro> spuddogg: frankly, use what you like best. i use totem because it's 100% gnome
[01:58] <spuddogg> nozorro...yea, but its bust :(
[01:59] <nozorro> spuddogg: totem?
[01:59] <spuddogg> nozorro, yes...totem is the one that gives me the codec error
[01:59] <nozorro> Zambezi: mabe a broken cable. this happens
[02:00] <nozorro> spuddogg: not all codecs are supported i think. but i'm no specialist on this
[02:00] <Zambezi> nozorro, But it doesn't feel good to buy a new cable that may solve the problem.
[02:00] <spuddogg> nozorro, but it worked earlier today...then i installed some software to try to rip dvds, and now totem dont work
[02:01] <nozorro> Zambezi: true, you should check out other possiblilites first. but a cable doesn't cost that much
[02:01] <tritoch> is there a simple way to revert to a fresh install?
[02:02] <nozorro> Zambezi: ... you could always try a live CD and test how the display behaves with it
[02:02] <Zambezi> nozorro, I'm trying to keep the costs down.
[02:02] <nozorro> Zambezi: that's what we're all trying to do :-)
[02:03] <Zambezi> nozorro, But this just happen occationally. Now, it seems to be permanent. But I wait until tomarrow. I'm going to bed about an hour.
[02:03] <nozorro> spuddogg: for encrypted DVD's, you need additional stuff, look at the web site i gave you earlier, in the DVD section
[02:03] <spuddogg> nozorro, no im not worried about that anymore...i'll just boot into "you-know-what" for that
[02:04] <nozorro> spuddogg: it's easy though
[02:04] <ne78_> Is there a way to remount / readonly afer telinit 1? mount -n -o remount,ro / says / busy. However fuser -mv / shows no F at all.
[02:04] <spuddogg> nozorro, one thing at a time...i wanna be able to play AVIs first
[02:05] <nozorro> Zambezi: maybe it's caused by heat. the thing heats up and a contact gets loose. this happens
[02:05] <miko> is there an EASY way to get the necessary java for my firefox

[02:07] <sc0tt> add it
[02:07] <Aven> ahh
[02:08] <nozorro> Zambezi: all electronics produce heat and are affected by it; i was referring to your monitor
[02:08] <Crippy-Boy> Right click the pannel > Add to pannel > Action button
[02:08] <sc0tt> it locks via xscreensaver iirc
[02:08] <cvt|expert> Aven,  right click, lock session

[02:09] <fishy> Why?
[02:09] <maple2> cvt|expert: GNU's not unix
[02:09] <cvt|expert> maple2,  format c:
[02:09] <hlabs> does ubunutu have any gui ftp server app
[02:09] <maple2> Wine is not an emulator
[02:09] <cvt|expert> maple2,  wine is not an emulator
[02:09] <maple2> I win
[02:09] <Jack_Sparrow> maple2: ask in windows or wine or cdega...
[02:10] <cvt|expert> maple2,  lame ain't an mp3 encoder
[02:10] <maple2> cvt: sudo su su sudo su root
[02:10] <cvt|expert> maple2,  gotcha thx it worked
[02:10] <hlabs> is there any gui based ftp server for ubunutu
[02:11] <Crippy-Boy> hlabs: Im not sure, but you should use sftp instead of ftp
[02:11] <tritoch> hlabs, not that i've found
[02:11] <Jack_Sparrow> hlabs: have you used synaptic to search for ftp
[02:11] <Zambezi> nozorro, I'll take a downtime tomarrow if it's not better, cleaning the computer and check all the cables.
[02:11] <miko> I need some help with JAVA pls
[02:12] <maple2> miko: you don't need java
[02:12] <nozorro> hlabs: gproftpd is a gtk gui for the proftpd server
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> miko,  in what way?
[02:12] <maple2> java is too corporate
[02:12] <nozorro> Zambezi: good luck
[02:12] <miko> My Firefox is asking to install java
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> !java
[02:12] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[02:13] <Dr_Willis> install it then. :P
[02:13] <NsOmNiAc> to restart network services you use what command
[02:13] <miko> How
[02:13] <miko> is there an easy way?
[02:13] <redblades> Hi, I have a stack of brand new Imation 4.7 GB DVDs that neither K3B nor Gnomebaker can burn too.
[02:13] <hlabs> ok how can i solve this problem. Cant write the new proftpd.conf here:
[02:13] <hlabs>  /etc/proftpd.conf
[02:13] <hlabs> Run GProFTPD as root
[02:13] <Dr_Willis> Read the url that the bot just posted
[02:13] <redblades> Has anyone encountered such an issue, and/or know of a way to fix it?
[02:14] <|thunder> argh, wtf, i keep getting this error in azureus. "Error: Disk read error - NullPointerException" what is going on here?  Im not getting any read errors elsewhere.
[02:14] <Dr_Willis> redblades,  try the command line tools?
[02:14] <maple2> redblades: wait until 2030 when k3b supports them
[02:14] <redblades> maple2, it already does... ?
[02:14] <redblades> Dr_Willis, How? Which?
[02:14] <fishscene> Hi
[02:14] <Crippy-Boy> |thunder: Just stop the torrent and start it. Make sure you have enough freespace and permission to save.
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> redblades: Are you trying to burn them as iso
[02:14] <fishy> When I try to install libgtk-dev2.0, I get this error: "Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (=2.8.17-1ubuntu5) but 2.8.18-0ubuntu2 is to be installed."
[02:14] <fishy> Why?
[02:14] <redblades> No, I'm trying ot make a DVD backup.
[02:15] <Dr_Willis> redblades,  those tools are just front ends to the command line tools.
[02:15] <FurryNemesis> anyone know how I can install a new splash screen? I've seen one I like on gnome-look.org but am clueless as to how to do it
[02:15] <Sanne> fishy: do you have any unofficial repositories enabled?
[02:15] <redblades> Dr_Willis, yeah, how do I do it from the command line?
[02:16] <fishy> Sanne: no
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> redblades,  a combo of cdrecord/makeisofs and otehr tools - id say google for   a few tiutorials/guides and wikis.
[02:16] <redblades> Gah
[02:17] <fishscene> ooook folks, here's an update as to my screen resolution problem
[02:17] <wouaren> hi
[02:17] <fishscene> I booted into the Livecd
[02:17] <nozorro> fishscene: tell us
[02:17] <fishscene> and on the boot options, I forced the resolution to 1280x 1024
[02:17] <fishscene> Booted, then installed the OS
[02:17] <Sanne> fishy: can you pastebin the output of: apt-cache policy libgtk2.0-dev libgtk2.0
[02:18] <|thunder> Crippy-Boy, good call, forgot I had a bunch of xvids in my trash
[02:18] <fishscene> And then I booted from the HD again, but I still have the same exact problem as before
[02:18] <fishscene> Is there a way to force the screen resolution at boot time?
[02:18] <BHSPitLappy> I'm in a fix with grub, guys
[02:18] <Crippy-Boy> |thunder: Yeah, Azureus' error messages are less than helpful
[02:18] <nozorro> fishscene: not for the X display / the gnome desktop
[02:18] <|thunder> BHSPitLappy, how so ?
[02:19] <nozorro> fishscene: only for the text console
[02:19] <fishscene> Well I was wondering because I can force the resolution when booting from the CD, but there's no option to do that with the HD
[02:19] <Sanne> fishy: sorry, typo: apt-cache policy libgtk2.0-dev libgtk2.0-0
[02:19] <|thunder> Crippy-Boy, ya, how does a full druve equal a read error, lol
[02:19] <BHSPitLappy> |thunder, I had grub installed, using menu.lst on hdb1 (my /boot partition), but I installed edgy later, and it used its OWN menu.lst... now I've removed edgy, and grub is still set to use THAT menu.lst.  How can I install grub, pointing to my GOOD menu.lst?
[02:19] <fishscene> Nozorro, do you know the command to set the resolution at boot time?
[02:19] <wouaren> Here's my problem : I have a plantronics headset, i play wine with counter strike, i use oss because alsa don't work with steam, i can't get my headset to work, sound always goes to my main soud card (intel integrated), how to change the wine output ? There's no anwser on winecfg nor on the internet forums
[02:20] <wouaren> its a usb headset
[02:20] <wouaren> works in gnome apps
[02:20] <wouaren> with alsa
[02:20] <miko> how do i make my ubuntu automatically open flock browser instead of firefox
[02:20] <maple1> miko: flock browser is terrible
[02:20] <maple1> just use firefox
[02:20] <|thunder> miko, system/prefered apps
[02:20] <|thunder> BHSPitLappy, im not sure.
[02:21] <nozorro> fishscene: vga=somenumber. this is a Linux kernel parameter. the numbers are fixed though, don't remember them now. google should give you answers
[02:21] <Rug> Howdy all
[02:21] <fishscene> Hi Rug
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> BHSPitLappy: You might try the super grub repair disk http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/SuperGrubDiskPage.html
[02:21] <brian98> hi all
[02:21] <fishscene> Alright, Thanks Nozorro
[02:21] <fishscene> I'll look it up
[02:22] <brian98> can anyone help me with a firefox prob
[02:22] <maple1> how do I burn a DVD from a DivX file?

[02:22] <nozorro> fishscene: sorry for you that you're stuck :-(
[02:22] <brian98> using dualhead config
[02:22] <brian98> on an nvida
[02:22] <Rug> maple1: try using tovid
[02:22] <BHSPitLappy> Jack_Sparrow, I actually have one of those, but it shouldn't be that involved to take care of... besides, its interface is poor and confusing
[02:22] <fishscene> Not a problem, I would try asking on the forums, but they've never been helpful there
[02:23] <fishscene> or even said anything to my topic like "can't help ya"
[02:23] <fishscene> <--- AFK
[02:23] <|thunder> Everyone, where do I configure which partiton i would like grub to load menu.lst from ?
[02:23] <brian98> ubuntu acutally it's an ati (doh!)
[02:24] <wouaren> no one use an ush headset with wine ?
[02:25] <Crippy-Boy> Sorry wouaren, Can't help ya

[02:27] <Rug> I am || <- this close to dropping all my clients if they don't switch to Linux
[02:28] <alandd> I want to install Kubuntu on a server without using or installing X.  How do I run a text-only boot and install from the Kubuntu CD?
[02:28] <Crippy-Boy> Rug: Good luck with that one. You'll never have any clients
[02:28] <Rug> alandd: type server at the prompt
[02:28] <nozorro> Sanne: thx, i just misinterpreted the instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[02:28] <Rug> Crippy-Boy: yeah, it might be worth it
[02:28] <Crippy-Boy> lol
[02:28] <Rug> alandd: when you boot from CD
[02:29] <alandd> Rug: at what prompt?  The first boot options?
[02:29] <Sanne> nozorro: no problem, your way is one way, I just thought I'd tell you another :)
[02:29] <Rug> alandd: yes
[02:29] <alandd> Thanks.  I'll go try it now.
[02:29] <nozorro> fishscene: are you listening still?
[02:29] <fishscene> Nozorro, nope
[02:30] <Crippy-Boy> Stuff it, time to watch some family guy or american dad
[02:30] <billtep> I am compiling something from source and get this: "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" - What does this mean?
[02:30] <Rug> Desktop Poll:  Who uses fluxbox/openbox/blackbox ?
[02:30] <fishscene> I just happened to check back here when you said that
[02:30] <Rug> Me!
[02:30] <nozorro> fishscene:  you did read the hints at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto ?
[02:31] <mainer> Rug: me too on the flux
[02:31] <fishscene> *reading*
[02:31] <Crippy-Boy> Rug: Sometimes, Its split between xfce and fluxx
[02:31] <nozorro> fishscene: good luck then
[02:32] <mainer> well,i use fvwm2,fvwm-crystal,E-17,icewm,flux,flux=no. 1 here tho for a couple years
[02:32] <Rug> mainer: I have a buddy who uses that name, he just switched to Linux (again) after a brief absence.  What a coincidence.
[02:33] <Crippy-Boy> I went crazy when i first used ubuntu, and installed every wm/desktop i could.
[02:33] <mainer> yes,i know a couple people from maine,i've had this freenode nick bout 21/2 rs i guess
[02:33] <Crippy-Boy> Flux/Xfce for my laptop. Gnome for desktop
[02:34] <mainer> they're all good,d.e.'s or w.m.'s all are just different
[02:34] <mainer> groceries,gotta run
[02:34] <tronic> does anyone know if there is any way an ubuntu laptop can connect wirelessly to an AOL wireless router?
[02:35] <Rug> Crippy-Boy: me too.  (testing all the DE's) I got annoyed by Gnome (to Mac'ish), KDE (to Win'ish), and Xfce (to crash'ish)  I love the minimalistic nature of Flux.  (Plus I can hack the hell out of my right-click menus so I get what I want)
[02:35] <jptxs> has anyone heard of known issues with corrupted ISOs for 6.06/Dapper Dan?
[02:36] <Rug> jptxs: I would guess that is a no
[02:36] <GianLuigiBuffon> hey guys, Is possible to emulate the entire windows98 with wine??? I don't find other solution for running wa... any guide works fine for me
[02:36] <jptxs> nothing on Wiki or anything, but i'm on my 5th bad disk from different sources (iso dowmloads, torrents and burned with different compuers)
[02:36] <jptxs> Rug: seems that way...
[02:37] <jptxs> =] 
[02:37] <nicedreams> Can someone help me understand why my Nvidia 5900 card will not work in Ubuntu when I try to do it the Ubuntu way using the instructions from ubuntuguide.org?  I do 'sudo apt-get isntall nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common' and then 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable' but that always errors out saying it can't so I do it manually and find that it put ATI everywhere for the cards description.  I have...
[02:37] <nicedreams> ...never gotten this work for for years now doing it the Ubuntu way and have to do it maually form www.nvidia.com to make it work.  Can someone please help me so I don't end up ditching Ubuntu again?
[02:37] <nozorro> jptxs: you are sure this isn't a CD burning thing?
[02:37] <Rug> jptxs: test your ram
[02:37] <Rug> ack never mind
[02:37] <jptxs> unless every CD burner in my house simultaneously broke tonight, no =] 
[02:37] <Rug> jptxs: have you done an md5sum of the iso?
[02:37] <GianLuigiBuffon> hey guys, Is possible to emulate the entire windows98 with wine??? I don't find other solution for running wa... any guide works fine for me
[02:37] <jptxs> i did.  looked OK
[02:38] <Rug> then the file is fine
[02:38] <Rug> jptxs: try slowing the burn down to 2x or 4x ?
[02:38] <jptxs> running the integrity check... just had my 6th bad iso.  F*&^
[02:38] <jptxs> I can slow down the burn...
[02:38] <Rug> cheap media?
[02:38] <jptxs> 6th bad disk, anyway
[02:39] <alandd> Rug: I added "server" to the F6 boot options.  It appears to want to use the GUI environment.  Perhaps I don't understand what prompt you are talking about.
[02:39] <jptxs> never had a problem with them before.  and I have two silos here of diff brands I've been choosing randomly from either
[02:39] <Rug> alandd: you typed 'server' hit-enter and it is still giving you a GUI?
[02:40] <Sanne> nicedreams: I used the instructions from the official wiki, worked for me: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[02:40] <nicedreams> I will try that Sanne...thanks
[02:40] <Sanne> nicedreams: good luck :)

[02:41] <everton137> Good night. I have instaled here apache 1.3 and 2.0, but only apache 1.3 is runing. How to turn off 1.3 and run apache2?
[02:41] <Rug> jptxs: good luck.    it might just be quicker for you to come over here, and I'll hand you a few disks!
[02:41] <jptxs> grrr... will take 13 minutes to burn at that speed
[02:41] <alandd> Rug: The menu has 5 choices.  I left "Start or install Kubuntu" highlighted and pushed the F6 key for "Other Options".  The line had several options listed ending in two dashes.  I added "server" to the end of that line.
[02:41] <GianLuigiBuffon> hey guys, Is possible to emulate the entire windows98 with wine??? I don't find other solution for running wa... any guide works fine for me
[02:42] <Rug> alandd: ack I am sorry, I was "remembering" the old install-disk screens.
[02:42] <vdepizzol> How can I update the Listen music player to the newest version? I tried to add the repository "deb http://theli.free.fr/packages/ dapper listen" in Synaptic but nothing happens
[02:42] <Rug> GianLuigiBuffon: what app do you want to run?
[02:43] <jptxs> GianLuigiBuffon: wine is a set of libraries to runa program, not the whole OS.  you need Xen or VMWare or similar for the whole OS
[02:43] <GianLuigiBuffon> because I can't run the f**** worms armageddon... guides doesn't works for me :(((((
[02:44] <Sanne> GianLuigiBuffon: some applications will work fine with wine, some won't. You can search the app db on http://www.winehq.com/ if your program is listed.
[02:44] <GianLuigiBuffon> sanne... wa works to everybody... except me
[02:44] <Sanne> GianLuigiBuffon: what is wa?

[02:46] <GianLuigiBuffon> I run winecfg for setting cdrom0 as a CD-ROM where is the ISO mounted
[02:46] <Rug> GianLuigiBuffon: BINGO!    that is the program that configures wine to use paths and emulate Windows drives

[02:50] <lufis> What's a good audiophile-approved CD burner app?
[02:50] <klees> jptxs: is VNC as easy as   vncviewer herIPaddress ??
[02:51] <Rug> Here is a thought; do we really want _everybody_ to switch from Windows to Linux?
[02:51] <lufis> Rug: yes
[02:51] <benkong2> !networkmanager
[02:51] <ubotu> networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager
[02:51] <Rug> lufis: there is no such thing.   CD's are just 1's and 0's

[02:52] <Rug> lufis: do you buy $50 cables too?
[02:52] <lufis> Rug: Guilty. :P
[02:52] <GianLuigiBuffon> is hard to use and that?
[02:52] <Rug> lufis: hehe, k3b is a great burning app.
[02:53] <lufis> Rug: alright, thanks
[02:53] <GianLuigiBuffon> Billing Information!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wtf

[02:53] <Geoffrey2> Rug, I suspect the answer is no...though it sounds nice in concept, I don't think the linux channels want to start fielding questions about the broken cup holder on their computer
[02:53] <Rug> CD's are digital, you can rip them poorly (ie. 112kbps 22Hz), or rip them great (ie. 320kbps 44Hz) but you can only burn them ONE way.
[02:53] <Slyboots> Hi
[02:54] <Rug> Geoffrey2: that is my point, thank-you.
[02:54] <Rug> Howdy Slyboots
[02:54] <GianLuigiBuffon> Sanne any idea?
[02:54] <Slyboots> Okayt, Having a small issue with my Ubuntu install, I DID have my ATI card working, with DRI rendering..
[02:54] <GianLuigiBuffon> no one could help me
[02:54] <Slyboots> But now its switched back to MesaGL
[02:54] <Rug> lufis:  CD's are digital, you can rip them poorly (ie. 112kbps 22Hz), or rip them great (ie. 320kbps 44Hz) but you can only burn them ONE way.
[02:54] <GianLuigiBuffon> I'm going to give a price if some one can runs worms armageddon in my stupid pc
[02:55] <Slyboots> ... Which is bad
[02:55] <GianLuigiBuffon> any of them
[02:55] <Geoffrey2> Rug, my favorite is still "Where's the 'any' key"?
[02:55] <Sanne> GianLuigiBuffon: cedega is a commercial version of wine, but I never used it, so I can't recommend one way or the other.
[02:55] <Rug> GianLuigiBuffon: buy Cedega
[02:55] <don_jr> say I'm having trouble booting ubuntu on my laptop, it freezes up totally when it get's to 'loading hardware drivers'  I booted into recovery mode and durring the boot sequence, all the stuff that scrolled the screen at one point it said "cd-rom:open failed"  Why is it trying to open my cd rom at boot and how do I stop it from doing so so it will quit lockingup.
[02:55] <tronic> does anyone know if there is any way an ubuntu laptop can connect wirelessly to an AOL wireless router?
[02:55] <Rug> Geoffrey2: hehe
[02:55] <benkong2> could anyone help me with an x30 thinkpad and networkmanager?
[02:55] <Rug> Geoffrey2: I have worked 'Help-Desk' for too many years.  You can't surprise me
[02:55] <GianLuigiBuffon> i'll crack it then
[02:56] <GianLuigiBuffon> but
[02:56] <Rug> GianLuigiBuffon: we don't like that kind of talk in here
[02:56] <GianLuigiBuffon> I wont pay 60 bucks per year for software
[02:56] <Geoffrey2> Rug, our interns go so ticked about it, then finally put up a sign next to the support desk that said "Today's any key is" and they'd hang a different letter beneath it every day
[02:56] <Sanne> GianLuigiBuffon: doing a quick search for worms armageddonlinux wine it seems that is is quite hard to get to run under wine, though.
[02:56] <Slyboots> So, How exactly do I.. reenable DRI and stop using Mesa GL
[02:56] <Rug> GianLuigiBuffon: then I am done helping you.  You are now on Ignore.
[02:56] <fishscene> =\
[02:56] <Geoffrey2> Rug, they swore for finals week they'd make the any key "Ctrl-Alt-Del"
[02:57] <fishscene> How do I open xorg.conf in a shell window?
[02:57] <GianLuigiBuffon> Sanne I see.... but I get pissed off because several people runs it
[02:57] <Rug> Geoffrey2: hehe cute
[02:57] <GianLuigiBuffon> ok rug sorry
[02:57] <miko> how do i ask the bot to post the information again about java
[02:57] <fishscene> !java
[02:57] <Rug> fishscene: open a term window and type:  nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:57] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[02:57] <psp401> I need some help installing
[02:57] <Slyboots> Anyone...?
[02:57] <nozorro> fishscene: please, take a not of it, save it in a text file or something, here it is, for the third time:
[02:57] <fishscene> I believe to ask the bot, you put a !java
[02:57] <Rug> !ati
[02:57] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:58] <Slyboots> I did that o.o
[02:58] <tom47> !ati
[02:58] <Slyboots> It was working! now its not
[02:58] <psp401> I have a problem with my instal
[02:58] <nozorro> fishscene: 'gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[02:58] <psp401> When I go t instal it
[02:58] <don_jr> say Can anyone tell me the file that ubuntu reads when booting?  It is trying to open my cd-rom on boot, how can I stop that?
[02:58] <myUserName> I neeed help i need to activate some module called speedstep-centrino to conserve battery life how do i load it?
[02:58] <psp401> It always says Error reading Boot CD
[02:58] <fishy> Sanne: You still there?
[02:58] <miko> I surrender
[02:58] <theBeno> Hey guys, I have a Toshiba laptop with a Host Protected Area because of the Express Media Player, and was wondering how I can run Ubuntu without removing this partition.
[02:59] <fishscene> Thanks
[02:59] <Sanne> fishy: yes
[02:59] <H080J03> in linux, how do you push something into the clipboard, using shell commands?
[02:59] <miko> i wish in the next years Ubuntu will be more userfriendly
[02:59] <theBeno> GRUB seems to have a glitch with the Express Media Player on the HD.
[02:59] <miko> specially to those who just left windows
[02:59] <GianLuigiBuffon> miko
[02:59] <GianLuigiBuffon> whats your problem man?
[02:59] <Slyboots> Okay, xorg is still loading fglrx as its graphics driver
[02:59] <Slyboots> But it is still using MesaGL
[02:59] <bannedbruenig> user friendly, what does that mean, more prompts that take up way too much time instead of using a command to get it done immediately?
[02:59] <Rug> miko: Why not help the cause?
[03:00] <laura> I am trying to get the driver for a wacom graphire 3 to install and am having a lot of trouble. The website where I obtained the src for the driver is http://linuxwacom.sf.net  Can anyone help with this? I don't know how to build all of the *.o files for the ./configure step.
[03:00] <H080J03> so does any one know how to puch a command on to the clipboard using shell commands?
[03:00] <LajujKej> I would be delighted if someone could help me troubleshoot a wireless issue
[03:01] <myUserName> I neeed help i need to activate some module called speedstep-centrino to conserve battery life how do i load it?
[03:01] <don_jr> LajujKej what's the issue?
[03:01] <Rug> H080J03: can't you just high-light it with your mouse?
[03:01] <Sanne> fishy: still waiting of your output of those commands I asked you about ;)
[03:01] <H080J03> yea
[03:01] <H080J03> but i am using kilpper
[03:01] <LajujKej> I was able to install my boradcom drivers with ndiswrapper (I'm on dapper), and I can see networks, but I can't connect
[03:01] <H080J03> and i want to hightlight something with my mouse, like local host and then have it change to my ip
[03:01] <Rug> H080J03: highligh with mouse, then middle-click to paste.   or highligh, and hit CTRL+C
[03:01] <Slyboots> Does *anyone* have any idea, why my Gentoo install would suddenly start using MesaGL rendering, for no clear reason, it was working with the ATI rendering closed source drivers
[03:02] <Slyboots> Now its only using MesaGL software rendering, which is beyond usless
[03:02] <don_jr> LajujKej what does iwconfig say?
[03:02] <Rug> Slyboots: Gentoo?
[03:02] <Slyboots> AGH! Ubuntu o.o
[03:02] <H080J03> yea i know
[03:02] <Slyboots> Sorry, My head is a little fried
[03:02] <nozorro> Slyboots: this is #ubuntu
[03:02] <miko> if i install updates of ubuntu will it have java with it
[03:02] <Slyboots> I know its ubunut!! o.o
[03:02] <miko> or do i need to separately download it
[03:02] <Slyboots> Im *using* ubuntu
[03:02] <H080J03> i want to addToClip('content')
[03:02] <Rug> Slyboots: try typing apt-get install ati in your gentoo session
[03:02] <don_jr> Can anyone tell me the file that tells ubuntu what to do on boot up so I can tell it to stop trying to open my cd-rom on boot?
[03:02] <bannedbruenig> miko, if you don't already have java, the updates won't have it. You have to get it seperately
[03:02] <H080J03> so i can use actions
[03:02] <Rug> Slyboots: =)
[03:02] <Slyboots> ATI is installed, Xorg is using the fglrx driver
[03:03] <LajujKej> don_jr well I am not sure what i am looking for in iwconfig
[03:03] <bannedbruenig> don_jr, the init scripts are in /etc/init.d
[03:03] <Rug> H080J03: ahh sorry
[03:03] <H080J03> yea
[03:03] <miko> if i have it before
[03:03] <alandd> Well, I'm getting no where so far on how to install using text only.  Is there a command to do a hard disk install from the commandline?  Without using or installing X or any GUI?
[03:03] <don_jr> LajujKej Does it show your wireless device there? proper name and all?
[03:03] <psp401> Anyone help me?
[03:03] <miko> how do i transfer it to flock or my firefox
[03:03] <don_jr> bannedbruenig thank you
[03:03] <bannedbruenig> miko, if you have it before you will have it later
[03:03] <psp401> My boot  cd is giving me errors
[03:03] <H080J03> cuz the other way is to copy, paste some where, go find out my ip, then add it into the url
[03:03] <LajujKej> don_jr yes, I can see just fine wlan0
[03:04] <Slyboots> And rug, Im NOT using Gentoo! o.o
[03:04] <H080J03> and that takes way to long
[03:04] <Slyboots> If I was in Gentoo I would be in Gentoo
[03:04] <Rug> H080J03: just make your IP a variable of your script
[03:04] <bannedbruenig> miko, to transfer the plugin, you just copy the plugin to whatever directory your other browser uses for its plugins
[03:04] <H080J03> umm
[03:04] <jake1> anyone have any suggestions of what is a good Palm Pilot to buy for use with ubuntu
[03:04] <H080J03> it is
[03:04] <pablo__> i am compiling a program and it doesnt finds ncurses but i have it installed
[03:04] <bannedbruenig> or better yet, make symbolic links, but with something as small as a plugin, kind of unnecessary
[03:04] <H080J03> see what happens with "actions"
[03:05] <hlabs> ok tell me something. I got the edu shared folder up and running i even setup the thing to work with samba
[03:05] <H080J03> is it checks a regular expersion on whatever highlighted and if it fits, it will show you a lisst of cammands
[03:05] <nozorro> pablo__: do you have the dev package installed?
[03:05] <Rug> jake1: something cheap.  Palm might be going out of business
[03:05] <hlabs> now how can i make windows connect to it
[03:05] <Reha> I am trying to get the driver for a wacom graphire 3 to install and am having a lot of trouble. The website where I obtained the src for the driver is http://linuxwacom.sf.net  Can anyone help with this? I don't know how to build all of the *.o files for the ./configure step.
[03:05] <Eleaf> yo
[03:05] <H080J03> but you have to use a shell script
[03:05] <jake1> Rug: really???????
[03:05] <Rug> jake1: yeah
[03:05] <pablo__> nozorro: mm let me see
[03:05] <Slyboots> Great, I realy dont know why I install linux
[03:05] <Slyboots> Every time this happens, Every freaking time
[03:06] <fishscene> Hurrah!
[03:06] <fishscene> All fixed
[03:06] <Reha> Can anyone see me? Or do I need to register first?
[03:06] <bannedbruenig> slyboots, what is the problem again
[03:06] <gusto5> we can see you, Reha
[03:06] <fishscene> Thank you Nozorro for that link
[03:06] <Maggot1n> Reha I can see you
[03:06] <bannedbruenig> Reha, register to pm, else you are good
[03:06] <jake1> Rug: any ideas what palm pilots work with Ubuntu
[03:06] <Sanne> Reha: we can see you fine :)
[03:06] <fishscene> I now have the full range of monitor resolutions
[03:06] <nozorro> pablo__: libncurses5-dev
[03:06] <Reha> thanks
[03:06] <jake1> or do they all work?
[03:06] <Slyboots> I installed the ATI drivers, and it was using the ATI accelrated closed drivers
[03:06] <Maggot1n> !fixres
[03:06] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:06] <Rug> H080J03: sorry I can't help you.  All I can offer is the script I use for getting my Dynamic IP
[03:06] <nozorro> fishscene: did it help you?
[03:06] <Slyboots> But now, its using the same drivers, but stuck in MesaGL software Rendering
[03:06] <pablo__> nozorro: yes, there is a problem, it doesnt even let me put #include<ncurses>
[03:06] <Slyboots> Which is slow and poinltess
[03:06] <markrian> Good Lord, upstart has been made the default init system for edgy, if recent updates are anything to go by!
[03:06] <fishscene> Yeup Nozorro
[03:06] <H080J03> hmm its ok
[03:06] <bannedbruenig> init will be better, hooray
[03:06] <fishy> Sanne: I got the output, browser keeps crashing, I can paste it.
[03:07] <nozorro> fishscene: your res now?
[03:07] <LajujKej> don_jr I can see my wireless device just fine, I just can't connect to the networks I see in network manager
[03:07] <Rug> markrian: Is that good or bad?
[03:07] <fishscene> Could you send me that link again? I'm going to save it in my permanent records. My resolution currently is 1600x1200
[03:07] <Sanne> fishy: paste to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ please
[03:07] <fishscene> The reason why it wasn't working was because it did not have my vertical and horizontal refresh rate
[03:07] <gusto5> hey LajujKej, what wireless card do you have?
[03:07] <Slyboots> And no-one seems to know, or is just cant be bothered answering as to why my ubuntu install works one day, then suddnely does not the next
[03:08] <nozorro> fishscene: i told you so :-]  here's the link again: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:08] <fishscene> What's up Slyboots?
[03:08] <psp401> Mine won't work at all
[03:08] <LajujKej> broadcom wlan 1300 I believe
[03:08] <psp401> Mine givers me this crap error
[03:08] <fishy> Sanne: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22580
[03:08] <markrian> Rug: I would say it's an excellent thing
[03:08] <bannedbruenig> psp401, what is the error?
[03:08] <pablo__> nozorro: thanks
[03:08] <Rug> markrian: what amkes it better then init?
[03:08] <UKMatt> anyone know a media transcoder that can change .m4a (the unprotected) to .mp3?
[03:08] <Sanne> fishy: looking
[03:08] <psp401> It says Error Readin Boot CD
[03:08] <SheeEttin> Quick and simple question: how does one access drives under Linux (e.g. floppy drive)?
[03:08] <Slyboots> Christ.. okay I'll repeat myself again fishscene  :P AIT Card, Was using the closed Accelreated drivers, Now its *not* Still uses the DRivers but is stuck in MesaGL software Rendering
[03:08] <nozorro> pablo__: can't help you further, not compiling anymore since i switched to ubuntu
[03:08] <Slyboots> ... Thats bad.
[03:09] <bannedbruenig> psp401, did you check the md5 and did you burn it slowly?
[03:09] <markrian> Rug et al: http://www.netsplit.com/blog/work/canonical/upstart.html
[03:09] <psp401> I didn;t check it, but I burned it pretty slowly
[03:09] <pablo__> nozorro: nono, thanks, it was tyhe dev package missing
[03:09] <LajujKej> gusto5 actually BCM4306 802.11b/g wireless lan controller
[03:09] <fishscene> oh, sorry to make you repeat that again Slyboots. That's a little more advanced that what I can handle (I'm new to linux pretty much)
[03:09] <gusto5> ohhh ok... umm
[03:09] <bannedbruenig> psp401, should have checked the md5
[03:09] <SheeEttin> psp401: there's an option in the main menu to check the disc
[03:09] <nozorro> pablo__: ah, that's always the first thing to check :-)
[03:09] <tjb891> does anyone here know how to configure ubuntus bittorent client so you can have outgoing connections (uploads)?
[03:09] <psp401> MD5?
[03:10] <bannedbruenig> !md5
[03:10] <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
[03:10] <hlabs> windows cannot detect ubuntu pc on its workgroup. I need to share files help.
[03:10] <bannedbruenig> http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto
[03:10] <Sanne> fishy: this looks like an annoying bug. The versions of the lib and the dev versions should match. If you have time, you should file a bug report. To get it working, we can try to find the approproate dev version in one of the mirrors which you could download and install with dpkg -i <packagename>.
[03:10] <Faithman> hey know where to get a linksys wireless card driver anyone?
[03:10] <fishy> Sanne: Can both versions exist at the same time
[03:10] <fishy> ?
[03:11] <Gevaudan> tjb891: sounds like this is a firewall issue...open ports 6881 to 6999...if using iptables /sbin/iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 6881:6999 -j ACCEPT
[03:11] <bannedbruenig> !wireless
[03:11] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:11] <Sanne> fishy: both versions of what?
[03:11] <gusto5> LajujKej, do you have network-manager-gnmoe installed?
[03:11] <SheeEttin> How does one access drives (e.g. CD) under Linux?
[03:11] <tjb891> thx
[03:11] <theBeno> GRUB seems to have a glitch with the Express Media Player on the HD.
[03:11] <Sanne> fishy: you haven't got any dev versions installed yet
[03:11] <theBeno> Hey guys, I have a Toshiba laptop with a Host Protected Area because of the Express Media Player, and was wondering how I can run Ubuntu without removing this partition.
[03:11] <theBeno> Any ideas?
[03:11] <tjb891> does anyone know were i can get a good iptables tutorial?
[03:11] <LajujKej> gusto5 I do - I can see networks in nm-applet, but if I try to connect it times out
[03:11] <fishy> Sanne: Oh ok. Where would I find a mirror?
[03:12] <marshall> does anybody know how to use dc++?
[03:12] <fishscene> TheBeno, I believe Ubuntu allows you to configure your partitions manually
[03:12] <gusto5> LajujKej, if you have it installed, you should have an icon on the task bar
[03:12] <bannedbruenig> SheeEttin, cdrom drives are located in /media generally, if you put something in them it normally pops up on the desktop or elsewhere to indicate it. If not check in /media
[03:12] <LajujKej> gusto5, i can see it in the taskbar
[03:12] <theBeno> fishscene, On the default install?
[03:12] <Sanne> fishy: I'm looking on archive.ubuntu.com, trying to find a deb of libgtk2.0-dev-2.8.18-0ubuntu2. Try to search also, first to find it wins ;)
[03:12] <gusto5> and that doesnt work?
[03:12] <Gevaudan> tjb891: iptables is extremely robust, i haven't found a boiled down iptables tutorial in my searching...you can always use firestarter...but first if you are using a hardware firewall be sure to open up the ports i mentioned
[03:12] <theBeno> fishscene, I didn't see any options...
[03:13] <marshall> does anybody know how to use dc++?
[03:13] <Sanne> fishy: should be in ubuntu/pool/main
[03:13] <hlabs> look i got some files on my ubuntu pc that i need to share with my win pc. Please tell me exactly how can i get this done
[03:13] <fishscene> theBeno, yes, it's an option when you run the install program
[03:13] <tjb891> Gevaudan:if i open the bittornet ports on my nat will i still have to configure iptables
[03:13] <Gevaudan> hlabs: samba if they are on a separate pc
[03:13] <gusto5> LajujKej, try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1071920&mode=linear
[03:13] <gusto5> as well as the ubuntu howtos
[03:14] <fishscene> Sanne: System>Administration>Shared folders
[03:14] <tom47> tjb891 maybe http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Iptables_for_newbies
[03:14] <hlabs> well i used the shared folder setup on the ubunutu pc but nothing works
[03:14] <tjb891> thx
[03:14] <Gevaudan> tjb891: if by nat you mean your hardware firewall/gateway/router then no
[03:14] <LajujKej> gusto5, I will try it out, thanks
[03:14] <Sanne> fishscene: huh?
[03:14] <nozorro> Gevaudan: iptables tutorials are here: http://www.netfilter.org/documentation/index.html#documentation-howto
[03:14] <fishscene> At the top of your screen
[03:14] <race> How can I rename a file?
[03:14] <fishscene> There's a button called "System"
[03:14] <fishy> Sanne: Not in there, under libg/
[03:14] <fishscene> I'm assuming you didn't setup shared folders yet
[03:15] <Gevaudan> do shared folders use samba for the backend or is this something ubuntu specific?
[03:15] <bannedbruenig> race, you could do mv filename newfilename in terminal or use the file manager and just right click on it and select rename
[03:15] <hlabs> look please help out here. I cannot setup the samba thing. I did the initial setup of the shared folder
[03:15] <Sanne> fishy: let's search on packages.ubuntu.com, I guess we find the newer version in the same directory as the older one.
[03:15] <hlabs> but win pc does not detect my linux share
[03:15] <tom47> tjb891 did you see the link posted by nozorro as well?
[03:15] <Sanne> fishy: are you on amd64, i386 or powerpc?

[03:17] <Stormx2> whats new?
[03:18] <race> file system-->usr-->lib-->wine
[03:18] <bannedbruenig> what do you want to rename it to?
[03:18] <Sanne> fishy: the directory is http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gtk+2.0/, but 2.8.18 is not there... maybe it's in updates, sec.
[03:18] <nozorro> Stormx2: ubuntu isn't *that* old :-] 
[03:18] <Stormx2> i know, but I went to use windows
[03:18] <Reha> I am trying to get the driver for a wacom graphire 3 to install and am having a lot of trouble. The website where I obtained the src for the driver is http://linuxwacom.sf.net  Can anyone help with this? I don't know how to build all of the *.o files for the ./configure step.
[03:18] <race>  /usr/lib/wine/winearts.drv.so.ol
[03:18] <Stormx2> cause web dev in ubuntu is way too hard ^_^
[03:18] <varsendaggr> is there a way to make all my icons small on my desktop in one easyt step?
[03:19] <nozorro> Stormx2: ubuntu has become better. dunno about web dev
[03:19] <varsendaggr> Stormx2, what do you mean?
[03:19] <bannedbruenig> race ok, go to Applications>accessories>terminal, once in there paste this command "sudo mv /usr/lib/wine/winearts.drv.so /usr/lib/wine/winearts.drv.so.ol"
[03:20] <fishy> Sanne: We need 2.8.17, not 2.8.17.
[03:20] <race> ok got that inserted pass word got race@race-destop:# [] 
[03:20] <race> Good sign?
[03:20] <bannedbruenig> check to see if it is renamed
[03:20] <race> yeah it is
[03:20] <race> lets see if wine crashes
[03:20] <Sanne> fishy: no, you have libgtk2.0-0-2.8.18-0ubuntu2, so we need the corresponding -dev package
[03:21] <LajujKej> gusto5 part of the help requires installing a package called bcm43xx-fwcutter, but it is no longer in the universe.  I have all the repositories loaded
[03:21] <race> woot it works ty bannedbruenig
[03:21] <bannedbruenig> :D
[03:21] <race> Time to config Wine for WoW
[03:21] <fishy> Sanne: I get this error in Synaptic: Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (=2.8.17-1ubuntu5) but 2.8.18-0ubuntu2 is to be installed
[03:21] <cafuego> LajujKej: http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/  -> there is a 'bcm43xx-firmware' package.
[03:21] <fishy> Sanne: Doesn't that mean we need 2.8.17-1?
[03:22] <tizwonder> How do you make panels in gnome transparent
[03:22] <Sanne> fishy: this message is a bit misleading. You see what you have installed with apt-cache policy libgtk2.0-0 or with dpkg -l libgtk2.0-0, and that shows  2.8.18-0ubuntu2.
[03:23] <nozorro> tizwonder: right-click > Properties
[03:23] <Madpilot> tizwonder, right-click, Properties, then Background tab; switch to solid colour and adjust opacity
[03:23] <Hostile> anyone have an idea when I try to mount my nfs, it mounts, but I ls the directory and it says Input/output error
[03:23] <farshim> how can I view PS files with resolution 96?
[03:23] <fishy> Sanne: So which version of what are we looking for?
[03:23] <nozorro> tizwonder: and check Solid color under Background
[03:23] <LajujKej> cafuego so I can just install this - I don't have remove the old firmware first?
[03:23] <hlabs> can some one please help setup a shared folder
[03:23] <tizwonder> Madpilot: thanks
[03:23] <tizwonder> nozorro: thx
[03:24] <RawSewage> If I install Six Thousand Seven Hundred Sixty Fonts , it says X will take a bit longer to load.  but will this slow my system down after loading
[03:24] <hlabs> i cannot get my win pc to connect to my ubunut pc
[03:24] <cafuego> LajujKej: You're better off removing the old firmware first.
[03:24] <tizwonder> nozorro: offtopic, where can you find gnome themes
[03:24] <fishy> Sanne: The whole point is to fix this problem when I do ./configure: "checking for PACKAGE... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0) were not met: No package 'gtk+-2.0' found"
[03:24] <nozorro> tizwonder: art.gnome.org
[03:24] <bannedbruenig> gnome-look also
[03:24] <Sanne> fishy: the same version as the lib you have installed. You have: libgtk2.0-0-2.8.18-0ubuntu2, so we need libgtk2.0-dev-2.8.18-0ubuntu2
[03:24] <sethk> fishy, gtk library source is not installed
[03:24] <Madpilot> RawSewage, why would you even want that many fonts all active at once?
[03:25] <Sanne> fishy: I know about your problem, let me just find it for you.
[03:25] <RawSewage> Madpilot, I dont know.  its the full package
[03:25] <sethk> fishy, if you want to build from source, then the library source (at least the headers) also have to be installed
[03:25] <Madpilot> RawSewage, from where?
[03:25] <LajujKej> cafuego I am sorry, but I am not sure exactly how to do that - if you can't help, do you think I could easily find a howto.  I know you time is important
[03:25] <RawSewage> Madpilot,  http://thelinuxbox.org/?page_id=3#fonts
[03:25] <cafuego> LajujKej: Just remove the bcm43xx* files from /lib/firmware
[03:25] <Sanne> sethk: the dev package is the wrong version, seems to be a bug, I try to find the right package manually.
[03:25] <sethk> fishy, that has nothing to do with packages, ./configure is used with source and knows nothing about package managers.  (and package managers know nothing about source)
[03:25] <LajujKej> cafuego ahh
[03:25] <tizwonder> bannedbruenig: gnome look has themes? i thought it was just wallpapers etc
[03:26] <sethk> Sanne, no, not wrong, different
[03:26] <bannedbruenig> it has themes
[03:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Lots of themes
[03:26] <tizwonder> bannedbruenig: i dont see it on the menu :/
[03:26] <race> Ermmm seems like Wine cant find my WoW.exe
[03:26] <Sanne> sethk, fishy, please, give me just a moment. I can't search if I always have to reply ;)
[03:26] <sethk> Sanne, just download and install the source tarball, problem will go away.  You can't fix it by installing packages.
[03:26] <sethk> Sanne, ok, no problem
[03:26] <race> cd /home/<wow directory>
[03:26] <race>    cd WTF
[03:26] <race>    nano Config.wtf
[03:27] <sethk> Sanne, I was typing because I'm about to walk the dog, so I won't  be here for about 10 minutes  :)
[03:27] <race> If I need to put that into a terminal
[03:27] <Madpilot> RawSewage, crazy... you'd never sort to the end of that many fonts! ;)
[03:27] <race> What do I config the first line to, to show that WoW.exe is in my desktop
[03:27] <RawSewage> Madpilot, true
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> tizwonder: click on gtk-2 or gnome
[03:27] <sethk> RawSewage, 6,769 is ok, but that last font ... :)
[03:27] <RawSewage> lol
[03:28] <sethk> RawSewage, font info is cached, so in fact it won't make much difference to the running system.  on the other hand, you need those fonts because ???
[03:28] <sethk> RawSewage, I think I actually use maybe four, five fonts
[03:28] <i386> be aware ubuntu users and devs - I did you a good mention in the Sydney Morning Herald
[03:28] <i386> http://www.smh.com.au/news/technology/linux-wins-over-new-fans/2006/09/04/1157222061911.html?page=fullpage#contentSwap1
[03:28] <bannedbruenig> tizwonder, they are there
[03:28] <i386> just thought id like you guys know
[03:29] <RawSewage> sethk, web design
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> i386 thanks..
[03:29] <kjm> What is the safest way to upgrade a fresh dapper install to edgy?
[03:29] <RawSewage> theres only one way
[03:29] <Jack_Sparrow> i386 NOw if you can hang out and answer the questions that come up..
[03:29] <kjm> aptitude versus apt-get versus update manager?
[03:29] <i386> ha
[03:29] <i386> no
[03:30] <farshim> do you know why my ps files appear fat?
[03:30] <thomas{}justME> How do I find and delete hidden files
[03:31] <jake1> how can I play .wma audio files?
[03:31] <Madpilot> thomas{}justME, make them non-hidden w/ Ctrl+H in Gnome's file manager
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> gksudo nautilus or sudo nautilus --no-desktop/media   show hiffen files in the menu
[03:31] <bannedbruenig> thomas{}justME, by hidden files I assume you mean the files begging with . from nautilus you can do ctrl + h to see them. In terminal ls -a, will show them
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> hidden
[03:31] <Madpilot> Jack_Sparrow, you don't need to launch nautilus w/ sudo just to see hidden files...
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> thomas{}justME: USe caution or your looking for a reinstall.. Now would be a good time for a backup
[03:32] <nozorro> Madpilot: very true
[03:32] <Sanne> fishy: the version you would need is nowhere to be found. Bummer.
[03:32] <Sanne> sethk: still here?
[03:32] <bannedbruenig> most hidden files are in the home directory anyways, so you wanted need sudo to delete them
[03:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Madpilot: If he intends to delete them he does
[03:32] <bannedbruenig> wouldnt*
[03:32] <thomas{}justME> I am using Kdevelop for my homework and it is adding lot of things to my folder that I can not need
[03:32] <Madpilot> Jack_Sparrow, no he doesn't, most hidden files are config stuff in the user's own section...
[03:32] <nozorro> Jack_Sparrow: but not in home dir
[03:33] <Madpilot> bannedbruenig, did you just admit that you're ban-evading?
[03:33] <Slyboots> Thats how I would have read that
[03:33] <Slyboots> Ahh, I have *fixed* my Ubunut problems
[03:33] <Slyboots> It was *so* simple
[03:34] <Slyboots> I took the harddrive, set it down on the floor, and took out a pin-hammer.. and hit it, very hard
[03:34] <Madpilot> bannedbruenig, smells like ban-evasion to me
[03:35] <fishy> This sucks.
[03:35] <nozorro> Slyboots: in engineering, they call this 'destructive testing'
[03:35] <bannedbruenig> perhaps it appears that way. I don't understand why bruenig was banned in the first place.
[03:36] <Slyboots> :D
[03:36] <Slyboots> Well it worked
[03:36] <bannedbruenig> he tried to look at the message or what not but it gave no reason
[03:36] <Madpilot> bannedbruenig, join #ubuntu-ops please
[03:37] <Sanne> fishy: did you update your package list? Maybe there are updates for those two packages. I already see 2.8.20-0ubuntu1 in dapper-updates, maybe you also can enable the dapper-updates repositories and install from there?
[03:38] <bluepop13> hi
[03:39] <grexk> how can I fix this "bash:no job control in this shell" error?
[03:39] <Geoffrey2> if there are websites that I can view in IE, but just don't seem to work with Firefox, is there any other browser for linux I might have better luck with?
[03:39] <nozorro> Geoffrey2: opera
[03:39] <bluepop13> I'm currently new to Linux and Ubuntu all together and in the past, using Windows I've really enjoyed Winamp. I'm currently using the default media player on Ubuntu 6.06 and was wondering if there's a better player that's fast, efficient, reliable and is just about like Winamp
[03:40] <cafuego> grexk: Are you in the busybox initrd shell or something?
[03:40] <bannedbruenig> Geoffrey2, you could try to wine internet explorer
[03:40] <Sanne> fishy: Sorry, I need to go, it's very late here. If you get help from somebody else, show them what you pasted, it makes it obvious that something is wrong in the repositories. Good luck! :)

[03:46] <NewpZ> hi im trying to get xmame to run full screen, if i pass it xmame -fullscreen romname.... it starts up full screen, but the game is tiny and in the middle of the screen.. does anyone know how to fix this?
[03:47] <phython> Hi, if I add a line to sources.list for edgy, then pin edgy below dapper, and aptitude update && aptitude upgrade shouldn't try to upgrade anything, correct?
[03:47] <fishy> bannedbruenig: Let me post everything on Ubuntu Forums to explain. I've been in this channel for 3 hours trying to figure it out.
[03:47] <[jb] > ./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory what i have to do?
[03:48] <phython> [jb] : are you trying to use firefox-bin instead of the firefox wrapper script?
[03:49] <[jb] > yep
[03:49] <bannedbruenig> [jb] , why?
[03:49] <phython> I suspect the wrapper script sets some stuff in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so you need to use the wrapper script
[03:50] <theBeno> With a current install of ubuntu, how can I replace grub with lilo?
[03:50] <bannedbruenig> !lilo
[03:50] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[03:50] <DarkMageZ> is there a way to check what's blocking the sound device?
[03:50] <varsendaggr> what is the gnome osx launcer called?
[03:50] <varsendaggr> gdesklets?
[03:50] <[jb] > i dont know, actually this problem is with my friend, and i dont even know what's firefox wrapper script
[03:50] <bannedbruenig> gdesklets, has one that you can use, yeah
[03:51] <varsendaggr> what is the one that is most like osx?
[03:51] <DarkMageZ> !sound
[03:51] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[03:51] <bannedbruenig> [jb]  the firefox wrapper script is in /usr/bin/firefox

[03:53] <nicedreams> AH DAMN......   XGL is off the hook
[03:53] <nicedreams> is there a good website that teaches you the buttons and stuff how to use it?
[03:53] <nicedreams> 'off the hook' = an expression
[03:53] <DarkMageZ> nozorro, hmm, no output from that... really odd
[03:54] <Geoffrey2> nozorro, how do I set the user agent?
[03:54] <varsendaggr> nicedreams, over in #ubuntu-xgl  they got a lot of input usually
[03:54] <nicedreams> thx
[03:55] <varsendaggr> nicedreams, here's one for you try to configure your window so you can throw it over to the side and have it settle with a nice jello like jiggle
[03:55] <nozorro> Geoffrey2: i don't use opera myself, but i'm told somewhere in opera's setting you can make it pretend to be IE; konqueror also had this option i think. just look in the prefs or google maybe. you can also check the offending websites without this change
[03:56] <NewpZ> i have an nvidia card, i installed the nvdia drivers and all that good stuff.. do i need to install opengl?
[03:56] <brian98> Geoffry2: I think that was just to spoof headers
[03:56] <kevinG> Does Debian install with GNOME or KDE?
[03:56] <rcmiv_> gnome
[03:57] <kevinG> ok, thanks
[03:57] <kevinG> Fedora also installs with GNOME default, right?
[03:57] <rcmiv_> dunno
[03:57] <jacobmp92> yeah
[03:57] <kevinG> I like GNOME :)
[03:57] <rcmiv_> really?
[03:57] <jacobmp92> i believe so on the DVD, but KDE is also included
[03:58] <rcmiv_> old redhat was always kde
[03:58] <jacobmp92> they were?
[03:58] <rcmiv_> um hmm
[03:59] <kevinG> Does Debian install similarly to Ubuntu?
[03:59] <jacobmp92> not really, no live CD
[03:59] <jacobmp92> but it has a GUI
[03:59] <rcmiv_> sort of...did an install last week..it was more diffictul
[03:59] <nozorro> kevinG: and many more (confusing) options in debian
[04:00] <kevinG> oh, ok
[04:00] <jacobmp92> debians just not really for beginners
[04:00] <ReDnEcKMaN> I have a problem, just installed ubuntu to a 333Mhz 256Mb ram with Nvidia Geforce FX 4000... crappy PC... but anyways when i boot all i get are straight vertical lines.....
[04:00] <kevinG> Well, Fedora seemed pretty easy to me. I was wondering if it was like Debian
[04:00] <rcmiv_> kevinG, when you finish debian install you have a very spartan system
[04:00] <jacobmp92> fedora install is kinda like debian
[04:01] <nozorro> kevinG: debian upgrade cycles are very long, but they also have a very big list of packages to select from
[04:01] <jacobmp92> but a little different in the install formats
[04:01] <cafuego> jacobmp92: Not it's not, it installs a complete desktop
[04:01] <jacobmp92> ah
[04:01] <bayzider> does any one know how to install new fonts on ubuntu??
[04:01] <cafuego> jacobmp92: When the smallest install puts far more stuff on than a base Debian.
[04:01] <Jack_Sparrow> !fonts
[04:01] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[04:01] <ubotu> No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, and gsfonts-x11 , No fonts in mplayer? see !mplayer
[04:01] <jacobmp92> ah
[04:01] <cafuego> bayzider: Put them in ~/.fonts and run 'xset fp rehash'.
[04:02] <jacobmp92> i havent used fedora for a long time so idk :p
[04:02] <nozorro> bayzider: just drag them to the .fonts folder in the home dir (if they are trey type)

[04:05] <ras> anyone willing to help?
[04:05] <Geoffrey2> slimz, to the best of my knowledge, linux shouldn't be used to write anything to NTFS partitions
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> slimz: ntfs write has had alot of testing but still not recommended
[04:05] <bayzider> im in "/" i just cant find .fonts
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !fuse
[04:05] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse

[04:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:07] <markrian> Then enter "fonts:/" without the quotes, and press enter
[04:08] <ras> anyone pls help
[04:08] <Geoffrey2> well, that's what happens when you have a proprietary, closed source file system for which the designer refuses to release adequate documentation
[04:08] <slimz> ok, thanks alot for the help guys, i guess ill have to look for another alternative, which means taking out the hard drive and putting it in another pc
[04:08] <slimz> :(
[04:08] <markrian> ras: we've heard you - just no one knows how to help
[04:08] <markrian> ras: you must be patient ;)
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> slimz: You can read all day long, you can save to usb, you can burn cd's dvd's
[04:09] <ras> i thought nobody did hear me
[04:09] <ezenu> Anyone know where Evolution settings are stored? My settings are screwed up and I'm trying to reset them -- am deleting : rm -r ~/.gnome2_private/Evolution /home/ezenu/.evolution/ ~/.gconf/apps/evolution/
[04:09] <markrian> ras: nope, we definitely did. On IRC people tend only to reply when they have something to offer
[04:09] <ras> anyway my problem is with a wifi pc card
[04:09] <fuoco> is there a very stable and safe way to use ext3 from windows ?
[04:09] <markrian> ras: yes, I saw
[04:09] <fishy> Can someone compile something for me?
[04:09] <nozorro> ras: if you can hear yourself, we can also hear you :-)
[04:10] <ras> yo yo chill
[04:10] <ezenu> fuoco, http://www.fs-driver.org/ is good I think
[04:10] <ras> ok my apology
[04:10] <wweasel> fuoco: I second the recommendation of ezenu
[04:11] <bayzider> nozorro: it wont let me drop the .ttf file in the fonts file
[04:11] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell bayzider about fonts
[04:11] <fuoco> ezenu, wweasel: thank you, i look there
[04:11] <Madpilot> bayzider, check the PM from ubotu you just got, good info there
[04:11] <_EriK> ezenu: ~/.gconf/apps/evolution
[04:11] <lostinc> Does anyone have a suggestion for a office suite (other than Evolution) that has a calendar, task list, contacts, ect
[04:12] <grexk> lostince: zimbra or hula
[04:12] <wweasel> I'm asking a question about a specific app...i'm sorry, but I couldn't get help in their channel and I think it's a fairly simple question if you know the answer.
[04:12] <nozorro> bayzider: hmm, strange
[04:12] <fuoco> what are my options of voip in ubuntu/linux if i don't want to use closed source skype ?
[04:12] <ezenu> _EriK, I already have that one
[04:12] <wweasel> I'm supposed to run aMSN with "export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 && msn/amsn"     -   that's what the guide i'm following says. what does this mean?
[04:13] <Madpilot> fuoco, ekiga is installed by default
[04:13] <_EriK> lostinc: there is a calendar add-on for thunderbird, but it was rough the last-time I looked at it
[04:13] <Madpilot> fuoco, Applications->Internet->Ekiga
[04:13] <fuoco> Madpilot: ekiga seems to me like a totally different beast, I couldn't get the grip on it
[04:13] <_EriK> lostinc:  you may want to look at web-based options if your users are open to that, egroupware or horde for example
[04:13] <lostinc> _Erik yes I saw that a month ago or so and yep its rough. I was wondering if I should install something like PHPgrouware.
[04:14] <Madpilot> fuoco, it's a SIP/softphone app. Not sure how good it's help is, but have a look.
[04:14] <lostinc> I run a small hardware consultancy and need to track clients and product
[04:14] <ras> i have a wifi pc card which has a prism javerline chipset
[04:14] <mathieu_> how would i repeat the execution of a command until it is executed without an error ?
[04:14] <nozorro> bayzider: i can do this with no problem at all ...
[04:15] <_EriK> lost: I would evaluate egroupware, horde, and the stuff available for zope for starters
[04:15] <_EriK> especially look at their security track record....at least one is not good, iirc
[04:15] <ras> ubuntu detects the card but the card is not working
[04:15] <lostinc> Thanks _Erik
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> !ndiswrapper > ras
[04:16] <ras> tried doesn't work
[04:16] <nozorro> bayzider: ???
[04:17] <rak> i have ultra vnc server installed on a windows machine, how can i use that from an ubuntu computer?
[04:17] <ras> i heard there is some biltin problem in ubuntu with madwifi
[04:17] <ras> how to solve it?
[04:18] <_EriK> rak: yes, but depending on the client you use you might not get the best settings
[04:18] <TyggerBob> DAQ for the day..
[04:18] <_EriK> not a big deal aot no worky
[04:18] <rak> _erik: should i use a different server?
[04:18] <TyggerBob> trying to get Java set up on my Dapper box with J2SDK 1.5
[04:18] <TyggerBob> what should the CLASSPATH be set to?
[04:18] <_EriK> rak: ultra is generally the gold standard for w32 vnc setups
[04:19] <_EriK> I would just experiment with a couple of different linux clients to find the one that seemed the fastest
[04:19] <rak> cool, any suggestions on clients?
[04:19] <_EriK> vnc4client and the tight stuff have worked okay for me, but my needs are simple and 100mbit
[04:21] <rak> sweet thanks alot!
[04:21] <MTecknology> Hi

[04:23] <FliesLikeALap> np
[04:24] <fishy> Can someone compile something for me?
[04:24] <wweasel> fishy: Not comfortable compiling stuff yourself? I wasn't a couple weeks ago, but I found out it wasn't as hard as it sounds
[04:25] <nootrope> anyone running an LDAP server in Ubuntu, accessible to OS X and Windoze, too?
[04:25] <fishy> wweasel: No, I can compile most things. I made something in Glade and it won't compile. I've spent three hours in this channel and on the Ubuntu Forums trying to figure it out.
[04:25] <MTecknology> I'm trying to connect to our universities network in Ubuntu. I know the ESSID and WEP key... In my network configuration, it shows two of these Student1 and Student 2... it also has some where the ESSID is hidden. I try to connect to Student1 and Student2. I connect for a while and then to get anywhere I need to authenticate on Clean Access. I do this, then after somewhere between instantly...
[04:25] <MTecknology> ...and 15 sec, I'm disconnected. How do I fix this?
[04:25] <wweasel> fishy: Ah. Sorry I can't help, I'm about to head off to bed.
[04:26] <Borat> hey guys, when i minimize a program, it doesnt show up on my toolbar, does anyone know the fix for this?
[04:26] <jmac__> I got wireless working via NDISWrapper, but everytime I boot I need to bring up the interface, set the essid, and run dhcp. What's the best method to have this happen automatically during boot?
[04:26] <MTecknology> fishy, do you have make-essential installed?
[04:26] <jmac__> borat you need to add multiple windows to your panel
[04:27] <jmac__> right click add to panel
[04:27] <Borat> oh
[04:28] <jmac__> borat it's called windows selector
[04:28] <Borat> yea, i just got it thanksl
[04:28] <jmac__> no problem
[04:28] <ezenu> ok, I accidently did: "rm -r ~/" -- what do i do? :(
[04:28] <fishy> MTecknology: It messes up on ./configure. Yes, I do have make-essential installed.
[04:28] <Borat> i love my xgl-compiz..
[04:28] <dfgas> is there a program for making a video of your desktop?
[04:28] <jmac__> me too!
[04:29] <MTecknology> fishy, sorry i guess it's been too long for me to remember how to help other than that
[04:29] <Borat> jmac do you know how to make a start button?
[04:30] <Paddy_EIRE> hey guy can anyone tell me if any of the silenat hill series of games has been proted to linux??
[04:30] <Borat> so when i click it it shows up?
[04:30] <Paddy_EIRE> *silent hill
[04:30] <jmac__> borat add main menu to panel
[04:30] <alandd> Can a Kubuntu CD, 6.0.x be used for text-only (text-based) installation?
[04:30] <Borat> http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b96/snewberry1980/Screenshots/September/September01a.jpg
[04:30] <Borat> Like that.
[04:30] <brian98> jmac_: What kind of wireless card is it?
[04:31] <theBeno> Does anyone know how to get grub to work even with a Host Protected Area/Express Media Player?
[04:31] <flodine> looks like a suse wanna be
[04:31] <nomasteryoda> Borat, does look cool
[04:31] <nomasteryoda> flodine, exactly
[04:31] <Borat> yea, just trying to make it look like taht
[04:31] <MTecknology> alandd, it can if you download the server install cd from the site
[04:31] <nomasteryoda> or an imitation of some windows idea
[04:31] <jmac__> brian - NDISWrapper Dell 1390 - It works but I have to start it via ifconfig wlan0 up, iwconfig essid blahblah, dhclient wlan0 up
[04:32] <flodine> suse sled is cool
[04:32] <jmac__> borat - no idea but that's pretty cool
[04:32] <alandd> MTecknology: Thanks.  I was trying to avoid another CD but that is no big deal.  I'll go get it.
[04:33] <brian98> jmac_: Was it recognised by acx but wouldn't work?
[04:33] <jmac__> no it works fine, but I have to run those commands everytime I reboot
[04:33] <jmac__> acx?
[04:34] <kaos|stormchas3r> is there  firewall installes on the default ubuntu 6.06>
[04:34] <hawkaloogie_> kaos|stormchas3r, yes, firestarter to configure iptables
[04:34] <JoseStefan> kaos|stormchas3r, not that i recall, but default install has little listen ports anyways
[04:34] <Borat> does anyone know a good icon theme that looks like vista?
[04:35] <kaos|stormchas3r> what if I need ports opened?
[04:35] <baconbacon> there is no firewall
[04:36] <brian98> jmac: it's a module that tries to provide native support for cards under linux distros acx100.sourceforge.net
[04:36] <hawkaloogie_> kaos|stormchas3r, by default, your iptables probably doesn't block anything. run firestarter to see
[04:36] <kaos|stormchas3r> kk, ty
[04:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !firewall
[04:36] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line) or firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing)
[04:36] <dfgas> Borat, i want my desktop to look like that
[04:36] <Borat> dfgas mee too
[04:36] <neil> I am trying to connect a 'compaq ipaq' to my Linux using 'raki' via USB but nothing seems to be happening can anyone help?
[04:37] <Borat> does anyone know a good icon theme that looks like vista?
[04:37] <jmac__> Borat - I've got to ask, if you like the look and feel of vista so much, why are you using Ubuntu?
[04:38] <Rafa_brz> Can I use my handheld dell axim with the ubuntu?
[04:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Where can I post a pic of my desktop...    The coolest icons I have seen are at http://kearone.deviantart.com/gallery/?order=9

[04:40] <smax> hi gang
[04:42] <marshall> does anybody use mldonkey-gui?
[04:42] <marshall> dfgas: is it cooler than aiglx/xgl/compiz?
[04:43] <dfgas> it doesn't use as much cpu
[04:43] <dfgas> its just for desktop switching
[04:44] <smax> is there a new apt.sources
[04:44] <marshall> beerockxs: i know that /etc/fstab conatins all your file system information. you might want to start there
[04:44] <cliffd> can someone riddle me this. is there a repo that has gaim 2 beta 3? I found some .deb pkgs on the internet but they didnt work. thanks.
[04:44] <smax> is breezy badger out dated ?
[04:44] <nomasteryoda> compiz is slick for sure
[04:44] <bruenig> smax, dapper is the latest
[04:45] <nomasteryoda> esp. if you read the directions
[04:45] <dfgas> Borat, http://teen.wordpress.com/2006/08/26/vista-ubuntu-vubuntu/
[04:45] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell smax about upgrade
[04:45] <marshall> yeah compiz rocks
[04:45] <nomasteryoda> lol
[04:45] <nomasteryoda> ya
[04:45] <marshall> lol
[04:45] <beerockxs> marshall: i'm looking for the right package to report a bug against. I know what /etc/fstab does
[04:45] <nomasteryoda> UbuntuCenter rocks too
[04:45] <gnulinuxman> Compiz doesn't work for me
[04:45] <nomasteryoda> gnulinuxman, i only have Aiglx working on an Intel-based chipset Dell laptop
[04:46] <nomasteryoda> actually works better now
[04:46] <gnulinuxman> oh
[04:46] <nomasteryoda> even the screeensavers that are 3d work
[04:46] <marshall> does anybody here use mldonkey?
[04:46] <nomasteryoda> marshall, not really
[04:46] <gnulinuxman> marshall: Tried but couldn't get it to work
[04:46] <tritoch`> any idea why most of my http requests are timing out in firefox?
[04:46] <caseyomah> beerockxs, What bug?
[04:46] <raich> sry for asking this on this channel but this is an emeergency and noone in #samba answers. how to browse a windows' files from the server?
[04:46] <nomasteryoda> tritoch`, dns errors?
[04:46] <nomasteryoda> try pinging google
[04:47] <marshall> does anybody here want to talk privately about a good way to dl warez? (pm me)
[04:47] <raich> a windows client's files in the samba server
[04:47] <tritoch`> nomasteryoda: ping works fine
[04:47] <beerockxs> caseyomah: my DVD drive does not show up in the places menu and in the gnome-mount2 applet when a DVD is in it. It shows up fine when a CD is in it, thouh
[04:47] <nomasteryoda> marshall, not here
[04:47] <gnulinuxman> marshall: Why do you want warez when you can get what you need to use a computer free, anyway?
[04:47] <nomasteryoda> we do not condone the use of such
[04:47] <bruenig> beerockxs, it should be mounted in /media/ put a dvd in there and check there
[04:48] <raich> sry for asking this on this channel but this is an emeergency and noone in #samba answers. how to browse a windows' files from the server?
[04:48] <beerockxs> bruenig: it get's mounted just fine, nautilus opens, too
[04:48] <marshall> gnulinuxman: im trying to download albums
[04:48] <nomasteryoda> marshall, and if you know the right dumpsters... you can get compters for free too marshall
[04:48] <bruenig> so what is the issue
[04:48] <beerockxs> it's just that it does not show up on the places menu and in the mount applet
[04:48] <nomasteryoda> ah, we have amusic theif here
[04:48] <caseyomah> raich, smb://[computername] /share
[04:48] <nomasteryoda> thief
[04:48] <bruenig> beerockxs, do you need it to?
[04:48] <FliesLikeALap> marshall please don't try to discuss warez or piracy here
[04:48] <Vexor> hola
[04:48] <beerockxs> bruenig: i usually use the mount applet for ejecting
[04:48] <raich> caseyomah: thank youuuuuuuuuu u'll live foerever in heaven
[04:48] <beerockxs> bruenig: and it's clearly a bug, which I want to report
[04:49] <bruenig> go to launchpad
[04:49] <caseyomah> raich, Leave off the []  that's just to say replace.
[04:49] <beerockxs> bruenig: but i do not know against which package, because it's not just the mount applet, but the places menu, too. so some underlying functionality is not working
[04:49] <FliesLikeALap> bruenig beerockxs, launchpad is down for code updates right now, look back in 10 minutes or so
[04:49] <Luna-Tick> If you are looking for a really easy way to really help Ubuntu, join the popularity contest. This sends the packages you use to the Ubuntu developers so that they can put the popular ones on the CDs, give them priority when fixing bugs etc. For details on how to configure popcon, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuPopularityContest - we need lots of users, especially "normal" users, before it is any use!
[04:50] <caseyomah> raich, Use Ctrl+L to bring up the location bar.
[04:50] <bruenig> is luna-tick a new bot or something, that was quite a formulaic answer
[04:50] <little_caesar> how do I run a program as root?
[04:50] <Luna-Tick> Tehehe - no I'm not
[04:50] <little_caesar> I mean. The password isn't letting me in
[04:50] <bruenig> must have copy and pasted
[04:50] <JoseStefan> hmm, a smart bot, replies and everything
[04:51] <gnulinuxman> little_caesar: are you using your own password?
[04:51] <raich> caseyomah: i owe you a BIG one
[04:51] <raich> buhbah
[04:51] <little_caesar> gnulinuxman: yeah, and trying blank passwords, too
[04:51] <like_zhu> hello, is anybody here using HP nx6120?
[04:51] <gnulinuxman> little_caesar: Are you listed in /etc/sudoers?
[04:51] <little_caesar> not me
[04:52] <little_caesar> um. No idea gnulinuxman
[04:52] <vik> where is the best place to look for startup logs?
[04:52] <little_caesar> gnulinuxman. This is a fresh install. Just converted from SUSE
[04:52] <gnulinuxman> Hmmm
[04:52] <Luna-Tick> little_caesar: what command are you typing?
[04:52] <little_caesar> su
[04:52] <|thunder> instead of ctrl-l I just hit / on the desktop
[04:52] <Madpilot> little_caesar, you do know that Ubuntu uses sudo + your own user pw generally, not (by default) root?
[04:52] <Luna-Tick> Try sudo
[04:52] <gnulinuxman> little_caesar: You need to use sudo
[04:52] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell little_caesar about sudo
[04:53] <gnulinuxman> little_caesar: The graphical programs call sudo
[04:53] <JoseStefan> popcon done
[04:53] <Luna-Tick> :)
[04:54] <little_caesar> ok guys. I got it working. Thanks
[04:54] <little_caesar> it didn't ask me for my password, though
[04:54] <neil> I am trying to connect a 'compaq ipaq' to my Linux using 'raki' via USB but nothing seems to be happening can anyone help?
[04:54] <bruenig> popcon doesn't appear to be very popular, 1000 users only?
[04:54] <like_zhu> I have a problem using my 6 in 1 card reader, can anyone help me?
[04:54] <caseyomah> I'm in popcon.
[04:54] <fog_proxy> Hi all. How to make a server daemon start when booting?
[04:54] <FliesLikeALap> bruenig I suspect it is growing quickly
[04:54] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, how so?
[04:54] <nomasteryoda> is it USB?
[04:54] <Luna-Tick> vik: try /var/log/syslog
[04:55] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: when I plug in my memory card, it just doesn't work
[04:55] <nomasteryoda> ah
[04:55] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, do this in a terminal
[04:55] <nomasteryoda> dmesg
[04:55] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: people don't know it exists
[04:55] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf
[04:55] <nomasteryoda> before and after pluggin in the card
[04:55] <glick> hey is there anyway to install ubuntu non-interactively?
[04:55] <like_zhu> It is intergrated into my laptop, I think it is a PCMCIA device
[04:55] <glick> i.e. if i want the same settings for all my clients
[04:55] <nomasteryoda> ah
[04:55] <glick> so i dont have to sit at each of 300 clients and install the OS?
[04:55] <nomasteryoda> now that is something different
[04:56] <synic> anyone use exaile?
[04:56] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, lets see what tpe it is
[04:56] <birdfish> In order to upgrade the system, do I just run an "apt-get dist-upgrade"?
[04:56] <bruenig> if the developers were really pushing it, it seems like they would put it everywhere. On the front page of the forums and wiki and everything.
[04:56] <nomasteryoda> model of the laptop will help first
[04:56] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: I've filed a bug against Ubiquity to get it into the installer - https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/55637
[04:56] <|thunder> guys, what is the menu for that appears when you hit ctrl-s from the desktop ?
[04:56] <tritoch`> glick: its called 'unattended' try searching for it
[04:56] <JoseStefan> how does popcon determine pkg usage (vote)?
[04:57] <bruenig> people shouldn't have to do it by default
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> |thunder, lol
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> what is that
[04:57] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: well, HP nx6120, Texas Instrument PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> search
[04:57] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: Can sysv-rc-conf add a new service?
[04:57] <Luna-Tick> The vote is based on when you last used it
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> Selecting Files Matching a Specific Pattern
[04:57] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: Add a script to /etc/init.d
[04:57] <|thunder> nomasteryoda, pattern ? wtf is that ?
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> search pattern
[04:57] <JoseStefan> Luna-Tick, how does it know "when" i last used a pkg ?
[04:57] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: any tool can do that auto?
[04:57] <nomasteryoda> click the help button and it tells you |thunder
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, ok
[04:58] <caseyomah> How do I configure NetBIOS names in Ubuntu?
[04:58] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: or any guide to program a script for that?
[04:58] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: so...?
[04:58] <|thunder> nomasteryoda, nothing happens when i input stuff and help does nothing.
[04:58] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: it isn't about making it on by default, just making sure each user has a statistically equal chance of being asked.
[04:58] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: sysv-rc-conf will list the scripts in /etc/init.d and allow you to check which things are run at start-up
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> |thunder, put a pdf file and add *.pdf to that box
[04:58] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: I think so
[04:58] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: and what is run at shut-down
[04:58] <nomasteryoda> it will select all pdf on the desktop
[04:59] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: so if I have a new program which install by myself and have no script in /etc/init.d,I need program one by manual
[04:59] <|thunder> i tried *.jpg, there's a ton of them in my home
[04:59] <bruenig> Luna-Tick, perhaps, although I doubt they will go by any of that until they can boost the user base quite considerably, as 1000 people certainly is not a sufficient number to determine popularity
[04:59] <caseyomah> I only use packages once AFAIK.
[04:59] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: I think so, if the program doesn't provide one
[04:59] <JoseStefan> Luna-Tick: btw, the FAQ link doesnt work
[04:59] <caseyomah> Programs installed by packages.. I use all the time.
[05:00] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: any other way?
[05:00] <JoseStefan> Luna-Tick: nor README for that matter
[05:00] <nomasteryoda> |thunder, works for me
[05:00] <nomasteryoda> very slick little trick
[05:00] <caseyomah> man programname
[05:00] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: I don't want to add a new script
[05:00] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, looking
[05:00] <cliffd> anyone have any idea on gaim 2 beta 3 packages? is there an official repo that would have them?
[05:00] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: I think there should be any other simple way
[05:00] <|thunder> nomasteryoda, hmm, ok. THanks man
[05:00] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: That is entirely the point. The system is only useful once the number of users increases. For it to increase, it needs to be a lot easier to enable and a lot easier to come across.
[05:00] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: This ain't Windows
[05:01] <twysted> has anyone had an issue with getting ubuntu to run on a VIA mainboard/cpu?
[05:01] <Borat> Guys, if you have a bunch of icons that are png and ico, how do you use them?
[05:01] <Luna-Tick> JoseStefan: I know - the links are broken...
[05:01] <Shadowline> cliffd: edgy's got gaim 2 beta 3 , you'd have to dist upgrade to do that though
[05:01] <bruenig> Luna-Tick, yeah I am not arguing. However more prompts at install is not the solution
[05:01] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: what?
[05:01] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: I know. I used fedora before, and I need only to add the program to rc.local
[05:02] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: Ah, you didn't say that
[05:02] <cliffd> Shadowline: can you tell me about that?
[05:02] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: We have an rc.local
[05:02] <Borat> Guys, if you have a bunch of icons that are png and ico, how do you use them?
[05:02] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[05:02] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: so, we can do it too?
[05:02] <caseyomah> bruenig,  What do you mean? The only prompts are language related, that's all.
[05:02] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: eubuntu 6.06 TLS
[05:02] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: Yes, you can
[05:02] <Luna-Tick> http://popcon.debian.org/README and http://popcon.debian.org/FAQ should answer your questions. Debian uses the same system. It also has the prompt during install in its fancy new installer
[05:02] <Shadowline> cliffd: edgy is the next version of ubuntu
[05:03] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: Our rc.local is /etc/rc.local
[05:03] <cliffd> Shadowline: yeah, how do I distro upgrade
[05:03] <bruenig> caseyomah, the current installation is fine adding more for popcon is stupid. I'd rather get to the install as fast as possible.
[05:03] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: well, although I don't think that is the best solution, it should work
[05:03] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: I will try to write a script first, thanks
[05:03] <Shadowline> cliffd: look here for answers---> http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=144
[05:04] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: OK, but if you want to use rc.local, it's in /etc/rc.local
[05:04] <caseyomah> bruenig, I would have liked to have seen an "Advanced" button that lets you add packages.
[05:04] <fog_proxy> gnulinuxman: I found it
[05:04] <cliffd> Shadowline: thanks much
[05:04] <gnulinuxman> fog_proxy: OK
[05:04] <nootrope> why does an upgrade to checkinstall require the removal of installwatch?
[05:04] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, think i found some good documentation...
[05:04] <nomasteryoda> still looking
[05:05] <bruenig> well digg this up, If you can get it on the front page, that will probably get a lot more users http://digg.com/linux_unix/Participate_in_the_Ubuntu_Package_Popularity_Contest
[05:05] <fatbrain> Hello, freezes during install (45%) is there a webpage that describes the boot-options/flags a bit better than the F1 at boot-screen?
[05:05] <nomasteryoda> fatbrain, did you try the alternate install?
[05:05] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: really?
[05:05] <nootrope> fatbrain: maybe the installer is corrupted
[05:05] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: what kind?
[05:05] <nomasteryoda> redhat/hp
[05:06] <caseyomah> fatbrain, I had freezes at 64% of install on this box, retried and worked fine. I think it was an image issue.
[05:06] <fatbrain> nootrope: 2nd cd-rom, burned it at 16x or something, so I dont think its wrong :(
[05:06] <twysted> has anyone had an issue with getting ubuntu to run on a VIA mainboard/cpu? just sits at booting the kernel and wont do anything else
[05:06] <nootrope> fatbrain: because that happened to me and the image was bad
[05:06] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: where to find?
[05:06] <fatbrain> nootrope: ok
[05:06] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, nope
[05:06] <nomasteryoda> did not have anything about the card reader
[05:06] <|thunder> twysted, works great on my via
[05:06] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: ToT
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> so does it indicate the card has been inserted on the dmesg line?
[05:07] <twysted> |thunder> hmm weird, i cant get any other distro to boot either same problem but id really like ubuntu ya know
[05:07] <bab_> I am trying to set up a poptop server, but it is not settting up my ppp0 interface, can anyone help?
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, on pastebin, post the bottom 20 lines of your dmesg
[05:07] <|thunder> twysted, how much ram ?
[05:08] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: let me try
[05:08] <nootrope> fatbrain: did you md5 that image?
[05:08] <twysted> bab_> id read the poptop docs i dont think really anyone here could help you
[05:08] <twysted> |thunder> 265MB
[05:08] <Unix_n_Coffee> someone here willing to help me get a ftp password using john the ripper?
[05:08] <cliffd> can I add an edgy repo to 6.06?
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> cliffd, i would not do that just yet
[05:08] <twysted> Unix_n_Coffee> we dont help hack sorry
[05:09] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: I don't think they'll help, actually they're something about my network interfaces
[05:09] <twysted> cliffd i wouldnt recommend it you can and more then likely will break your system
[05:09] <Unix_n_Coffee> twysted whats the offtopic channel?
[05:09] <nomasteryoda> unless you want some major problems like no xserver
[05:09] <nomasteryoda> ubuntu-offtopic
[05:09] <organic_> Hello.  Has anyone ever got a SATA drive to work with ubuntu?
[05:09] <twysted> Unix_n_Coffee> they wont help you there either but its #ubuntu-offtopic if i recall
[05:09] <nomasteryoda> organic_, using 2 right now
[05:09] <twysted> organic_> yes at work =)
[05:10] <cliffd> nomasteryoda: i really really want a pkg of gaim 2 beta 3, and was told edgy has that. can I just get that package or should I just do a distro upgrade?
[05:10] <gusto5> hey, how do i know if ubuntu is using both my cores in my centrino duo?
[05:10] <cliffd> gusto5: do you have smp kernel?
[05:10] <organic_> What's the trick?  Ubuntu won't recognize my drive.  I have a PCI SATA adapter that I'm using.
[05:10] <gusto5> cliffd, what would that be?
[05:10] <twysted> cliffd> go build it from source if you add edgy you will more then likely break your system
[05:10] <organic_> Any ideas?
[05:10] <bruenig> cliffd, you can get a deb of gaim beta 3 I am sure elsewhere
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, ok so it did not see the card... i.e. the driver for the reader is not loaded... maybe there is one somewhere...
[05:10] <Unix_n_Coffee> DBO here?
[05:10] <cliffd> gusto5: when you do uname -a do you see the letters SMP any where?
[05:10] <twysted> gusto5> cat /proc/cpuinfo
[05:11] <bignose_> is there an ubuntu-esq way for installing perl  modules, or is cpan recommended ?
[05:11] <khalid> does Ubuntu use 945G 3d accelerated drivers for intel chipsets automatically?
[05:11] <cliffd> twysted: ok. thanks an then just build a deb of it
[05:11] <khalid> I have an intel 950, and my computer runs games so much faster in Windows XP.
[05:11] <twysted> cliffd exactly =)
[05:11] <twysted> bignose_> cpan for now until people make debs
[05:11] <cliffd> bruenig: yeah.the 3 ive found none of them work
[05:11] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: you're right, there's something, all seems to be alright
[05:11] <bignose_> twysted: okay cool.
[05:11] <bignose_> nothing i'm not used to in freebsd :)
[05:12] <gusto5> cliffd, nope.
[05:12] <twysted> bignose_> and some people i know are making packages so it should be soon ;)
[05:12] <organic_> nomasteryoda and twysted: is there a good FAQ you can point me to?
[05:12] <bignose_> cool.
[05:12] <cliffd> twysted: ok thanks. any tricks for building .debs?
[05:12] <cliffd> gusto5: then I would say no its not using it
[05:12] <gusto5> twysted, it...doesnt seem to indicate 2 cores
[05:12] <bruenig> cliffd, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=206865
[05:12] <twysted> organic_> they just worked you might want to try the wiki
[05:12] <DBO> Unix_n_Coffee, uhm... yes?
[05:12] <cliffd> gusto5: if you go to synaptic, and scroll down to the linux-686 there should be an smp kernel there.
[05:12] <Unix_n_Coffee> DBO can u PM me?
[05:12] <cliffd> bruenig: thanks.
[05:12] <Unix_n_Coffee> :)
[05:13] <andrew_> haha
[05:13] <Unix_n_Coffee> :)
[05:13] <andrew_> thesting cool
[05:13] <upgrdman_> it seems like in synaptic, many pieces of software are fairly old, and not recent versions... is there some special flag or repo i need to add to allow recent versions?
[05:13] <DBO> Unix_n_Coffee, are you identified with nickserv, you wont be able to msg me until you do so
[05:13] <twysted> |thunder> what via cpu and mainboard are you using
[05:13] <DBO> !register > Unix_n_Coffee
[05:13] <Unix_n_Coffee> forgot my password
[05:14] <Unix_n_Coffee> hold on
[05:14] <like_zhu> upgrdman_: try sudo apt-get update
[05:14] <nomasteryoda> organic_, does the drive have data already on it?
[05:14] <bruenig> !smart
[05:14] <ubotu> smart is another meta-package manager available for Ubuntu. It's quite stable, uses APT's repositories, can handle mirrors/multiple-connections, and is supposed to make Ubuntu BiArch-compatible for Edgy. See http://labix.org/smart and https://wiki.kubuntu.org/SmartPackageManager
[05:14] <gusto5> ok cliffd ive found it. ill install it now.
[05:15] <harmless> how can i determine exactly what processor I have?
[05:15] <upgrdman_> like_zhu: my repos are already refreshed... but i did that just in case. no change
[05:15] <twysted> harmless> cat /proc/cpuinfo
[05:15] <Unix_n_Coffee> DBO join #DBOnumber1fanha
[05:15] <Unix_n_Coffee> :)
[05:15] <like_zhu> upgrdman_: then try adding some new sources to your synaptics
[05:15] <harmless> twysted: thanks
[05:15] <UKMatt> Has anyone ever had trouble with F-Spot not showing any pictures other than thumbnails?
[05:15] <twysted> harmless np
[05:15] <cliffd> gusto5: after you install and reboot come back. I think there are some things and /proc and /sys you can check
[05:16] <gusto5> ok cliffd i will be back then.
[05:16] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, i found this list in google.... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=+Texas+Instrument+PCIxx21+Integrated+FlashMedia+Controller+ubuntu&btnG=Search
[05:16] <harmless> anyone using swiftfox? comments?
[05:17] <bignose_> is the "add / remove applications" just a fuzzier front ent to synaptic ?
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> no help but it seems driver just not out there yet
[05:17] <UKMatt> harmless, i use it.. can't really tell a difference, but whats the harm
[05:17] <twysted> bignose_> yes
[05:17] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: ok...
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> emphasize the word yet
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> they are working on it
[05:17] <bruenig> harmless, big difference for me using AMD64
[05:17] <merch> harmless, I tried it. Slightly faster, but I had some minor integration problems with gnome.
[05:17] <BeepAU> can someone recommend me a good p2p? i have frostwire, but am unhappy, as it freezes alot.
[05:17] <bruenig> what integration problems?
[05:17] <nomasteryoda> their are good cheap USB models ... i have a 6 in one
[05:18] <harmless> swiftfox wont start for me. i have it installed, icon on the desktop. i start it. its in my taskbar, but closes after moment. ill keep trying : \
[05:18] <twysted> BeepAU> amule, azerus
[05:18] <bruenig> BeepAu, are you asking for a good gnutella program or p2p in general?
[05:18] <ivan> hello
[05:18] <bruenig> harmless, how did you install it?
[05:18] <merch> bruenig, no matter what I did, some things (like urls on the desktop) opened in firefox. Minor stuff, but irritating.
[05:18] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: actually it used to be working properly, but something broke it. Maybe because I installed some new packages like HAL
[05:18] <Vexor> might be able to trick hotplug or such in thinking it is a mass storage device - it would be just good luck if it were that easy though
[05:18] <harmless> downloaded .sh script
[05:18] <bruenig> merch, you have to set it as the default
[05:18] <ivan> I don't know what is wrong with my ubuntu dapper
[05:19] <BeepAU> bruenig - gnutella
[05:19] <ivan> it show me the interfaces in a differenet order
[05:19] <ivan> instead of eth0 it shows eth2
[05:19] <gusto5> alrght, im back
[05:19] <[X`rc] > hello can someone help me whit c compiler for ubuntu ?!
[05:19] <[X`rc] > =
[05:19] <bruenig> harmless, they make a package specifically for ubuntu
[05:19] <gusto5> [X`rc] , do you have gcc installed?
[05:19] <harmless> bruenig, can i apt-get it?
[05:19] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, have you rebooted?
[05:20] <[X`rc] > gusto no
[05:20] <merch> bruenig, I did, in every place I could find gnome-default-application properties, GConf, update-alternatives... you name it.
[05:20] <bruenig> harmless, what processor do you have?
[05:20] <nomasteryoda> newer kernel modules can do that
[05:20] <harmless> celeron M
[05:20] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: Thanks for the Digg - I've added a comment
[05:20] <nomasteryoda> like_zhu, try booting into one of the previous versions
[05:20] <bruenig> merch, I don't know. It all worked for me. Perhaps you could do a symbolic link
[05:20] <[X`rc] > i dont know were to get it gusto5 im newb on ubuntu....
[05:20] <gusto5> cliffd, im back from full reboot
[05:20] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: no way... I've removed them
[05:20] <bruenig> harmless, use this http://getswiftfox.com/ubuntu.htm
[05:21] <nomasteryoda> ah
[05:21] <gusto5> [X`rc] , go into terminal and do this => sudo apt-get install gcc
[05:21] <Madpilot> [X`rc] , install the build-essential package
[05:21] <cliffd> gusto5: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[05:21] <aSt3raL> i want to add a drive to store media what filesystem is best?
[05:21] <vik> Is there a way to prevent the use of the trashcan for removable media (usb drives)?
[05:21] <nomasteryoda> well, maybe you removed a module you needed like_zhu
[05:21] <nomasteryoda> or jsut the list from grub
[05:21] <bruenig> Luna-Tick, yeah I was going to create an article but it already existed :( no credit here
[05:21] <merch> bruenig, If you drag a url from the address bar to the desktop, then close swiftfox, and double-click the desktop shortcut u created, does swiftfox open?
[05:21] <aSt3raL> vik: hold shift
[05:21] <merch> bruenig, ^^ or do you get firefox?
[05:21] <gusto5> cliffd, yep it looks like its working now. it will show core 0 and core 1
[05:21] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: maybe...I tried to re-install pcmciautils and hal, nothing done
[05:22] <like_zhu> nomasteryoda: and I removed the old kernel from synaptics
[05:22] <cliffd> gusto5: you are set then.
[05:22] <harmless> bruenig, thanks, ill try the ubuntu package
[05:22] <vik> aSt3raL: anything more permanent?
[05:22] <gusto5> cliffd, if i delete the 386 entries from grub, will that be a big problem?
[05:22] <cliffd> gusto5: also, did you install the 386 or the 686?
[05:22] <gusto5> i have both kernels installed right now.
[05:22] <ivan> hello
[05:22] <aSt3raL> vik: im not sure
[05:22] <gusto5> i installed the 686
[05:23] <cliffd> gusto5: no not at all. but its always safe to leave an extra just incase... but you know the 686 smp works because you are using it now
[05:23] <gusto5> cliffd, ok. so i am all set now?
[05:23] <aSt3raL> does anyone know which filesystem is best for storing media?
[05:23] <Ropechoborra> Hi.. i got a celeron 2.0 390 of ram, any idea why it is so slow with ubuntu?? =S
[05:23] <cliffd> gusto5: i would say so. unless anyone else has anything to add about getting dual cores working... just SMP right?
[05:23] <gusto5> cliffd, all looks good. system resources also shows it.
[05:23] <ivan> hello
[05:23] <bruenig> merch, ah it does open in firefox, weird. I have never done that. I don't generally drag links to the desktop. When I use any other application that goes to browser, like when I click links in here, they always go to swiftfox even when it is closed
[05:24] <gusto5> ok, ill loiter around for a bit, but i give you my thanks, cliffd
[05:24] <like_zhu> Ropechoborra: maybe you install too many programs...my Ubuntu takes about 200MiB of memory
[05:24] <[X`rc] > gcc: Depends: cpp (>= 4:4.0.3-1) but it is not going to be installed this is what the terminal say when i type it
[05:24] <upgrdman_> are there some good repo's to add as stardard practice? ubuntu is full of old versions
[05:24] <cliffd> gusto5: good deal. everything should be working.   you are welcome.
[05:24] <ivan> I don't understand the behavior of the ubuntu
[05:24] <ivan> where can i map correctly the interfaces for mi linux box ?
[05:24] <cafuego> upgrdman: No, you're mistaken. ubuntu is full of _tested_ versions.
[05:24] <MTecknology> I'm trying to connect to our universities network in Ubuntu. I know the ESSID and WEP key... In my network configuration, it shows two of these Student1 and Student 2... it also has some where the ESSID is hidden. I try to connect to Student1 and Student2. I connect for a while and then to get anywhere I need to authenticate on Clean Access. I do this, then after somewhere between instantly...
[05:24] <MTecknology> ...and 15 sec, I'm disconnected. How do I fix this?
 - it shouldn't be.  I'm running it on a 700 MhZ Duron, watching a DVD and writing code in Gedit.  No speed demon, but it works.
[05:24] <twysted> how can i disable acpi
[05:24] <merch> bruenig, Yeah... I tried everything. no luck. I don't do that often either, but stuff like that frustrates me!! :)
[05:25] <ivan> I want it to see eth0 instead of eth3
[05:25] <vik> aSt3raL: media as in large files?
[05:25] <gusto5> [X`rc] , can you force it to install?
[05:25] <twysted> MTecknology it could be a problem with clean access
 - check $top to see if there is anything that is running that is eating processes that shouldn't be,
[05:25] <cafuego> upgrdman; if you need instability, you can always "upgrade" to Edgy though. Check #ubuntu+1
[05:25] <gusto5> [X`rc] , actually, i suggest you stop taking my advice from here. i dont know how to force it sorry.
[05:25] <bruenig> merch, let me try my solution. I don't even know if you are interested but It should work
[05:25] <aSt3raL> vik: yes, im debating on whether to use ext3 or fat32
[05:25] <[X`rc] > sudo apt-get -f install gcc
[05:25] <upgrdman_> cafuego: true. but assuming i want to try out new version of a select few apps, do you know of a good repo?
[05:25] <[X`rc] > but not working eighter
[05:25] <Ropechoborra> kjm i'll do it
[05:25] <[X`rc] > =\
[05:25] <gusto5> oh ok.
[05:25] <gusto5> sorry, im at a lost
[05:25] <MTecknology> twysted, but with the way we connect, i would still be able to view the DSU site
[05:25] <vik> aSt3raL: Fat32 can't store files bigger than 1 gig
[05:26] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, are you after any particular app?
[05:26] <cafuego> upgrdman: Nah, that depends entirely on the apps in question.
[05:26] <upgrdman_> gnomad2
[05:26] <Jamminpotato> vik, its 4gig file limit not 1 gig
[05:26] <merch> bruenig, Yeah, I changed the path to executable in firefox.desktop, but then there's a whole new set of problems. Symlink like you said is probably best.
[05:26] <aSt3raL> does ext3 have any advantage over fat32?
[05:26] <kjm> aSt4ral - yes
[05:26] <Jamminpotato> you can have files bigger then 4 gigs
[05:26] <merch> bruenig, But still, why should we have to do that?
[05:26] <qkslvrwolf> say...does anyone know anything about memtest86?
[05:26] <Ropechoborra> kjm i got 2 tasks running and 100 sleeping.. is that usual ?
[05:26] <Slyboots> Hi
[05:27] <vik> Jamminpotato: hmm... I always had problems creating files in linux over 1 gig on a fat32 partition...
[05:27] <vik> so I got rid of it
[05:27] <nomasteryoda> Ropechoborra, yes
[05:27] <kjm> sounds about right.  Look for an entry in the top that says  "xx.xx % idle"
[05:27] <twysted> vik> fat32 is limited to 1gb filesizes
[05:27] <aSt3raL> kjm: what advantages besides the file size limit?
[05:27] <Slyboots> It copied all the files as afar as I know, but when it reached the stage to install Grub, it just "failed"
[05:27] <kjm> journaled
[05:27] <Jamminpotato> twysted, i coulda sworn it was 4 gigs
[05:27] <twysted> nope
[05:27] <Slyboots> There wasnt much in the way of a helpfull error message
[05:27] <Slyboots> It just "failed"
[05:27] <jbroome> i think it's 4
[05:28] <nomasteryoda> aSt3raL, data integrety, stablility
[05:28] <twysted> ext3 has ALOT of advantages over FAT
[05:28] <upgrdman_> DarkMageZ: do you know of a repo that has recent versions of gnomad2?
 - look at the "top" output - and tell me what % idle is.
[05:28] <Ropechoborra> Cpu(s): 82.7% us,  7.0% sy,  0.3% ni,  0.0% id,  6.6% wa,  3.3% hi,  0.0% si
[05:28] <fog_proxy> Does ubuntu has xinetd?
[05:28] <Slyboots> Would there be any way to actuly use the systerm without Grub?
[05:28] <twysted> its compairable to NTFS, its a journaled filesystem so if you loose power you dont risk system damage
[05:28] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, unfortunantly no, but i'm looking into building a newer package for ya
[05:28] <twysted> brb
[05:28] <Flannel> Slyboots: sure, with lilo, or another boot loader
[05:28] <vik> aSt3raL: Fat32 is only really goot for compatibility
[05:28] <bruenig> merch, yeah I guess that sucks but it isn't that big of a hassle. symlik works though
[05:28] <qkslvrwolf> does anyone know of a specific issue that would cause memtest to crash?
[05:28] <qkslvrwolf> as in, reboot?
[05:28] <Slyboots> Well if grub did not install, whats the odds another wil?
 - 82.7 % user - means that something is using 89 % of the processor . . . is that constant?
[05:29] <merch> bruenig, yup.
[05:29] <Flannel> Slyboots: pretty good.  If the machine works, some bootloader had to be on it at some point
[05:29] <upgrdman_> DarkMageZ: if you dont mind, i would prefer it if you could teach me how to make my own package... so i can solve my own problems in the future. ... a link to a tutorial would work too. thanks
[05:29] <Ropechoborra> kjm no... it goes from 30 to that...
[05:29] <bruenig> what is weird is in the preferred applications dialog, it has the command for browser to be /usr/lib/swiftfox/firefox %s, so it should open swiftfox as far as the system is concerned
[05:29] <vik> qkslvrwolf - dodgy floppy, bad memory at the very start of your bank, dodgy computer
[05:29] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, ah, k.
[05:29] <Slyboots> Hmm.. okay
 - How "slow" is slow ?
[05:29] <Ropechoborra> kjm it is mostly in 37%
[05:30] <qkslvrwolf> its the one on the cd rom drive, testing the computer because it crashes with firefox on windows with a phys mem dump.
[05:30] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, to make your own packages. this is the guide http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[05:30] <upgrdman_> thx
[05:30] <qkslvrwolf> I"m assuming its either bad memory or a bad controller
[05:30] <[X`rc] > ok i got it
[05:30] <[X`rc] > =)
[05:30] <qkslvrwolf> but its for a "client" who doesn't want to take my word for it.
[05:30] <qkslvrwolf> he's blaming memtest.
[05:30] <vik> aSt3raL: the filesize thing is a major issue when you're trying to make dvd images.
[05:30] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, most of the hard work is already done for you tho. you can lift the source package from debian and build it under ubuntu :)
[05:30] <Ropechoborra> kjm no to much... but is something usual, for eg. when i open a common window or switch desktops it is a bit slow
[05:31] <wizard> Hey all.  Does anyone know how I change my default music player to Amarok?  When I set a shortcut in "System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts" to launch my music player, it will start rhythmbox.
[05:31] <[X`rc] > Setting up gcc-4.0 (4.0.3-1ubuntu5) .. Gusto this is my message from consol after sudo...
[05:31] <bruenig> Luna-Tick, perhaps someone should create a new digg article as that one is 50 days old and is not likely to get much action
[05:31] <vik> what is the people
[05:31] <roh_> I just used synaptic to download kde and its packages. How do I get it to switch over from gnome now?
 - Keep an eye on the system monitor and just see if there is something that looks like it's running out of control....all I can suggest off the top of my head.  Nothing seems out of the ordinary.
[05:31] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, you can find debian's 2.8.8 version @ http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=gnomad2&searchon=names&subword=1&version=all&release=all all the hard work is already done for you. you just have to build the package :)
[05:32] <vik> what is the people's choice of audio editing software?
[05:32] <_Elijah_> after installing mailx   are there any special configurations needed to get cron to mail out to remote address ?
[05:32] <kjm> vik - Audacity
[05:32] <demio> hello
[05:32] <vik> kjm: just checking if there is anything else out there worth looking at
[05:33] <kjm> vik - I haven't run across anything better
[05:33] <demio> does anyone here know how to get the cpu temps in an easy way?
[05:33] <Ropechoborra> kjm i got some processes that dont know what are they for.. , for eg: the mapping-deamon
[05:33] <little_caesar> how do I open the file explorer as superuser?
[05:33] <DarkMageZ> demio, there's an app callled ktemperature :)
[05:33] <vik> kjm: just installed gnusound which looks promising
[05:33] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: It is also poorly written, I may do so
[05:34] <upgrdman_> DarkMageZ: ok, i downloaded the pkg, how do i build it?
[05:34] <kjm> vik - Haven't heard of that. . . . will have to check it out.
[05:34] <[X`rc] > little_caesar use sudo in front of your command
[05:34] <demio> isnt that for KDE?
[05:34] <roh_> I just used synaptic to download kde and its packages. How do I get it to switch over from gnome now?
[05:34] <demio> im running gnome
[05:34] <little_caesar> well, I want to open the Window with root priveleges, what's the command I'd do for that? I'm in Gnome, btw
[05:34] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, you'll have to make yourself a build environment from the first link i gave ya. and build it like in the first link
[05:34] <bruenig> Luna-Tick, I might get one linking to the wiki as that is a bit more explanatory to the necessity as far as development is concerned not just a nerdy lets see which packages are most popular tool
 - google them, but if anything is being run by the root user . . . it usually is important.  You can check the startup list services by installing the boot-up manaer
[05:35] <kjm> boot up manager
[05:35] <DarkMageZ> demio, kde apps can run under gnome. i do it all the time. i haven't found a gnome = of ktemp
[05:35] <upgrdman_> DarkMageZ: o ok, cool. thx
[05:35] <roh_> that aimed at me kjm?
[05:35] <buchan> Is the source for Ubuntu's Human theme, icons, and gdm anywhere to be downloaded? I've poked around the sites and can't seem to find anything.
[05:35] <kjm> roh_ no
[05:35] <demio> aight
[05:35] <roh_> So Im just not getting any help here huh...
[05:35] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: it makes sense to link it back to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuPopularityContest - if that needs more explanation as to the necessity of the package, then that seems the logical place for it
[05:35] <minerale> My symbolic links keep breaking once I move them out of the folder where the linked file is, is that normal?
[05:35] <[X`rc] > sudo nano /etc/apt/exemple
[05:36] <twysted> minerale> yes
[05:36] <kjm> roh_ use the sessions menu in gdm screen.
[05:36] <roh_> Im fairly new. I dont know what the gdm is
[05:36] <DarkMageZ> upgrdman_, doing all of that is fun. the first few times :)
[05:36] <minerale> twysted: how do I create links that survive folder moves ?
[05:36] <twysted> minerale> you dont?
[05:36] <little_caesar> so.. what's the command to open a window?
[05:36] <little_caesar> **with root privs
[05:36] <roh_> But i can opoen a sessions window from system menu
[05:36] <[X`rc] > sudo nano
[05:36] <kjm> roh_ : that is the main screen that you use to login to the system
[05:36] <DarkAudit> !cdrtools
[05:36] <little_caesar> thanks
[05:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cdrtools - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:36] <minerale> twisted: how do I link a file x as file y in another folder then ?
[05:36] <Ropechoborra> little_caesar sudo nautilus dir i think
[05:37] <rjune> Does the Ubuntu theme include an icon that could be construed as a network switch/hub?
[05:37] <rjune> gah, iconset
[05:37] <bruenig> Luna-Tick, so are you going to do it or should I?
[05:37] <kjm> exit
[05:37] <Luna-Tick> bruenig: I'll do it
[05:37] <demio> DarkMageZ
[05:37] <demio> I just installed it
[05:37] <ubuntu-novice> has anyone had luck running Synergy on Ubuntu?
[05:37] <demio> where do i run it from now
[05:37] <bruenig> ok, just want to avoid double post
[05:38] <merch> minerale, Your symlink needs to point to the full path.
[05:38] <twysted>  ubuntu-novice> quite a few people in the utah group
[05:38] <ubuntu-novice> tyysted: thanks. it's another channel?
[05:38] <DarkMageZ> demio, launch a terminal and type ktemperature
[05:39] <bruenig> Luna-Tick, when you do get it. Link to it here.
[05:39] <dave> can i block ports 5900 and 7212
[05:39] <ubuntu-novice> also when I play a DVD, I see flickering lines in fullscreen mode.  I tried playing around with interlacing but that didn't help.  I have an Nvidia Geoforce card.
[05:40] <twysted> dave> yes though none of those should be open by default
[05:40] <dave> something is trying to connect ot me on those ports
[05:40] <twysted> dave, how do you figure?
[05:40] <demio> i doesnt work
[05:40] <demio> gives some errors in the console
[05:40] <dave> my stateful firewall on my router keeps reporting it
[05:41] <DarkMageZ> demio, hmm, it "should" work. works here.
[05:41] <twysted> dave, that can be normal its just a bot looking to exploit a proxy nothing to worry about exspecially if you dont use VNC
[05:41] <dave> i would like to try closing them if posible
[05:41] <ubuntu-novice> is there a Cisco VPN client available for Linux? do we have to buy it?
[05:41] <buchan> Is the source for Ubuntu's Human theme, icons, and gdm, etc anywhere to be downloaded? I've poked around the sites and can't seem to find anything.
[05:41] <twysted> ubuntu-novice> no
[05:42] <dave> i understand 5900 is the linux shared desktop ip
[05:42] <twysted> dave> if they are not being forwarded on your router there is no problem
[05:42] <demio> screw it
[05:42] <demio> my cpu is well ventilated
[05:42] <ubuntu-novice> twysted> meaning it is not available?
[05:42] <twysted> ubuntu-novice> no its propriaty to cisco
[05:42] <dave> i understand the shared desktop module on linux open 59000 through the firewall
[05:43] <dave> 5900
[05:43] <twysted> dave> i doubt it unless you made a rule to open that port
[05:43] <ubuntu-novice> twysted> thanks much
[05:43] <dave> trysted i understand it is the linux default to keep it open
[05:43] <twysted> no ubuntu ships with no active webservices
[05:43] <dave> ok
[05:44] <twysted> dave> its normal to get port scanned and get requests for that kind of thing it happends alot to me if you were to see my logs ;) as long as your not forwarding those ports youll be fine =)
[05:44] <dave> does that me ubutu does not have linux shared desktop enabled
[05:44] <twysted> dave, by default ubuntu does not enable that function
[05:44] <dave> great
[05:44] <dave> because the other do
[05:44] <twysted> dave,  yea quite a few do hehe
[05:45] <dave> thanks, happy labour day

[05:50] <BEJO> hi
[05:52] <XtremeBain> I've added myself to the 'www-data' group, it appears properly in /etc/group.  I've made sure /var/www is owned www-data:www-data and that it and all its contents has g+w chmod'd.  However I still cannot create or modify any documents in /var/www/.  Any ideas?
[05:52] <cajun> i'm running Ubuntu but I want to try using the KDE desktop.  How can I switch to KDE?   remove GNome?
 /var/www/ is usually owned by 'root' by default
[05:52] <cajun> or Gnu, whichever it is that i'm using
[05:53] <cajun> i installed the KDE desktop but I see no difference in the display
[05:53] <twysted> cajun> install the kubuntu package
[05:53] <XtremeBain> twysted: I think the lighttpd install chown'd it to www-data:www-data
[05:53] <cajun> i don't have any CDs that have enough space on them
[05:53] <twysted> cajun then on the login screen click sessions and choose kde or kubuntu and login
[05:53] <cajun> i have 700MB ones but they won't work
[05:53] <cajun> well the login screen says Kubuntu
[05:54] <twysted> ok then
[05:54] <merch> smax, see -> http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/info/ifs/rzaaxmstlinkcmp.htm
[05:54] <twysted> [21:53:44pm]  <twysted> cajun then on the login screen click sessions and choose kde or kubuntu and login
[05:54] <cajun> but my desktop looks no different from having Ubuntu installed
[05:54] <cajun> Kubuntu's screenshots look NOTHING like what i have
[05:54] <cajun> am i missing something?
[05:54] <twysted> your not listening
[05:54] <twysted> your not logging into kde
[05:54] <twysted> your logging into gnome
[05:55] <cajun> oh ok
[05:55] <GianLuigiBuffon> hey guys!
[05:55] <cajun> is "sessions" under "menu"?
[05:55] <XtremeBain> Could it be something about the UID being above 1000?
[05:55] <twysted> if youd listen to what im saying AT THE LOGIN SCREEN  CLICK SESSIONS THEN CHOOSE KDE THEN LOGIN
[05:55] <GianLuigiBuffon> do you know how to install Direct 3D with wine? I need it to run worms armageddon but I dont find it in the regedit
[05:55] <Luna-Tick> cajun: Do you have a screen when you boot that asks for a username and password?
[05:55] <cajun> yup
[05:56] <Luna-Tick> That is your logon screen
[05:56] <cajun> it says kubuntu and looks very different form the Ubuntu one
[05:56] <cajun> right
[05:56] <Luna-Tick> In the bottom left hand corner is an options button
[05:56] <Luna-Tick> Sessions is in there
[05:56] <cajun> ok
[05:56] <cajun> i'll give that a try
[05:56] <cajun> thx
[05:56] <Luna-Tick> (or it is in Ubuntu - I assume Kubuntu is the same...)
[05:57] <nai> cajun:select from the logon screen

[06:23] <cry0gen> Symlink the dev devices.
[06:23] <printk> yah
[06:23] <printk> interesting
[06:23] <cry0gen> Worked once.
[06:23] <cry0gen> Not sure if it will still work. But it *should* work still.

[06:23] <cry0gen> the Audio Device daemon on the other machine.
[06:23] <cry0gen> the Client on the other machine.
[06:24] <cry0gen> The client then on connecting to the daemon
[06:24] <cry0gen> creates the proper DEV devices, on the local machine, and voula you have the audio device local.
[06:24] <cry0gen> Easy stuff.
[06:24] <nai> can i use gcompris in kubuntu?
[06:24] <cvt|expert> how do i access the files on my diskette drive?
[06:25] <cry0gen> i think arts daemon actually had that functionality. I don't remember
[06:25] <cry0gen> cvt|expert: mount /dev/fs0
[06:25] <cry0gen> fd0**
[06:25] <cry0gen> to a dir.
[06:25] <cry0gen> mount /dev/fd0 /media/floppy
[06:26] <usli> hai
[06:26] <usli> i need help
[06:27] <cry0gen> dont ask to ask, just ask the question
[06:27] <cry0gen> :P
[06:27] <marshall> whats up usli
[06:27] <usli> i't my first exp with linux
[06:27] <marshall> ...
[06:27] <Krank> Curious question, what is the difficult of the ATI driver vs the Nvidia one? Just noticing a X850XT on sale and was curious.
[06:27] <cry0gen> Ok, go on.
[06:27] <cvt|expert> cry0gen, it says i need to specify the filesystem type
[06:27] <cry0gen> cvt|expert: hmmm.
[06:27] <marshall> Krank: go with nvidia
[06:28] <cry0gen> Krank: ATI drivers are really, really, horrible at this point.
[06:28] <marshall> Krank: if you plan on using it with linux get nvidia
[06:28] <cry0gen> They work, but they lack a lot of functions
[06:28] <cry0gen> ex: xvideo support
[06:28] <usli> my ubuntu dont have sound
[06:28] <marshall> lol
[06:28] <marshall> ati stanks
[06:28] <Dev05> Hi people! I need some real help on Remote VNC... Some geek on that out there?
[06:28] <cry0gen> nvidia by far works a lot better and seems to hold ground on linux support
[06:28] <Krank> That's what I needed to know.. Was thinking of a 7900GS perhaps down the line
[06:28] <marshall> usli: go system > preferences> sound
[06:28] <SurfnKid> any network engineers here who know about trunking lines and peripheral nodes?
[06:29] <usli> marshall: then ...
[06:29] <Dev05> !tell Dev05 about vnc
[06:29] <marshall> usli: at the bottom of the window it opens, what does it say for default sound card?
[06:30] <Krank> And what is the deal with videos with the audio going out of sync within a few minutes?
[06:30] <cry0gen> SurfnKid: aye.
[06:30] <marshall> Krank: do you mean flash?
[06:30] <Krank> Yeah, have to wait for 9?
[06:30] <usli> marshall: brb
[06:31] <luckyone> how do I make Ubuntu recognize my USB printer?
[06:31] <marshall> Krank: ive had the same problem. i play a video on youtube and the sound and video are out of sync after a minute
[06:31] <SurfnKid> cry0gen, yo
[06:31] <luckyone> it recognizes the scanner part of it without a problem (thanks xsane), but CUPS is dragging it's feet
[06:32] <meal3837> i was playing around with gdesklets, and one of the desklets got all funky and basically crashed the program
[06:32] <_tcc> the one gdesklet pisses me off
[06:32] <tuxtheslacker> *** GTK+ 2.4 is required to build ophcrack; please make sure you have the GTK+
[06:32] <tuxtheslacker> *** development headers installed. The latest version of GTK+ is
[06:32] <tuxtheslacker> *** always available at http://www.gtk.org/.
[06:32] <_tcc> i stopped using them
[06:32] <_tcc> waste.....
[06:32] <_tcc> lol
[06:32] <tuxtheslacker> oh snap! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to flood.
[06:33] <_tcc> hmm....
[06:33] <meal3837> i tried restarting gnome and and restarting gdesklets, but when it came back up it did the same thing
[06:33] <tuxtheslacker> I was trying to pastebin, and was going to ask how
[06:33] <Dev05> Well, anyone :( ?
[06:33] <tuxtheslacker> how I should go about update to gtk+2.4?
[06:33] <IcemanV9> instead of gdesklets, just use gnome applets
[06:33] <cafuego> You have gtk 2.4
[06:33] <cafuego> Your problem is that you're missing the gtk headers.
[06:33] <tuxtheslacker> okay, then why would that error pop up?
[06:34] <meal3837> is there a config file somewhere that I could delete?
[06:34] <marshall> _tcc: i know, gdesklets are a pain in the ass
[06:34] <tuxtheslacker> cafuego, where would I get the headers?
[06:34] <IcemanV9> it would be nice to install yahoo! widgets instead of gdesklets :)
[06:34] <_tcc> marshall, I swear people just slap them on during screenshots to make their desktop look bad ass.
[06:34] <meal3837> because i completely removed and then reinstalled it, and it still did the thing
[06:34] <_tcc> And then remove them after.
[06:35] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: 'apt-cache search libgtk | grep -- -dev' would be a start.
[06:35] <marshall> _tcc: i know. like 90% of them dont fcking work and teh selection on the site is poor at best
[06:36] <tuxtheslacker> cafuego, that spits out a ton of packages.
[06:36] <_tcc> gdfuego?
[06:36] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: What do you think of the dexcription for the fourth one from the bottom?
[06:36] <tuxtheslacker> I want the dev package?
[06:37] <marshall> cafuego: lol
[06:37] <cafuego> You're developing, aren't you? ;-)
[06:37] <SurfnKid> cry0gen, you there
[06:37] <tuxtheslacker> cafuego, only technically....
[06:37] <tuxtheslacker> hold on, those are the 2.0 dev packages.
[06:37] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: Then technically you'll need them <heh>
[06:37] <aSt3raL> anyone here use jackd?
[06:38] <tuxtheslacker> cafuego, libgtkmm-2.4-dev - C++ wrappers for GTK+ 2.4 (development files)
[06:38] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: and the package version is 2.8.17
[06:38] <tuxtheslacker> isn't that better?
[06:38] <meal3837> dependency hell aSt3ral?
[06:38] <tuxtheslacker> cafuego, can you send me the exact name of the package I want? becuase I dont' knw where I should be looking.
[06:39] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: I think you'll find libgtkmm-2.4-dev depends on libgtk2.0-dev
[06:39] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: So either way
[06:39] <aSt3raL> meal3837:  what do you mean?
[06:39] <meal3837> having trouble installing it, by any chance?
[06:39] <_Elijah_> cafuego:  do you have a min to answer a question or two privately about the bot ?
[06:40] <cafuego> _Elijah_: Not my bot, try Seveas.
[06:40] <_Elijah_> tks
[06:40] <shmho> hello
[06:40] <aSt3raL> meal3837: no i was wondering if i could use it to send audio from one machine to another
[06:40] <meal3837> oh
[06:40] <shmho> I have install ubuntu about some weeks ago. And I did update all package, and security patch
[06:40] <thoreauputic> cafuego: I owe you - you mad wireless on  my iBook easier by nmiles :) Thanks for the firmware package!
[06:41] <aSt3raL> i want the audio from my laptop to play on the desktop
[06:41] <shmho> But I have found some Infected bindshell using chkrootkit.
[06:41] <cafuego> thoreauputic: shiny innit? :)
[06:41] <thoreauputic> heh s/mad/made
[06:41] <shmho> Is there anyone has a problem like me?
[06:41] <aSt3raL> anyone know if jackd will do this?
[06:41] <cafuego> shmho: Port 465 by any chance?
[06:41] <minerale> is there some itunes-like program that will allow me to download itunes podcasts ?
[06:42] <meal3837> does anyone know where I can find the gdesklets config file, so that I can remove it?
[06:42] <synic> minerale: banshee, rhythmbox
[06:42] <thoreauputic> cafuego: well, I had *major* issues with network-manager, but I have it working now
[06:42] <thoreauputic> :)
[06:42] <shmho> cafuego: nope. there's no 465 on netstat.
[06:42] <usli> marshall: back
[06:43] <synic> minerale: strike that.  Looks like Banshee doesn't.
[06:43] <cafuego> shmho: Ok (chkrootkit incorrectly reports ssmtp (465) as bindshell here)
[06:43] <marshall> usli: what does it say is your default audio card?
[06:43] <thoreauputic> cafuego: the latest network-manager-gnome seems to be no-go with iBook G4 and bcm4306
[06:43] <MTecknology> I need help getting my second monitor to function as a second desktop without downloading anything.
[06:43] <usli> marshall: it said usb device 0x46d:0x8b2
[06:44] <cafuego> thoreauputic: Hmm, working OK here.
[06:44] <marshall> thats teh problem
[06:44] <usli> ok
[06:44] <usli> then.. what should i do then ?
[06:44] <cafuego> thoreauputic: Unless there's been an update in the past few days
[06:44] <marshall> usli: is there anything else that you can select
[06:44] <usli> yes...
[06:44] <usli> via 8235
[06:44] <ACU> Greetings and a Quick question: I am trying to connect from Gnome Meeting or Ekiga to a Windows Machine with NetMeeting. Everything goes fine but the text chat is not working, any hints?
[06:44] <tuxtheslacker> configure: error: header file <openssl/ssl.h> is required for OpenSSL
[06:44] <thoreauputic> cafuego: hmm - I had to downgrade, but maybe I missed something obvious
[06:45] <tuxtheslacker> where can I get the headers?
[06:45] <Glombool> !cinelerra
[06:45] <ubotu> cinelerra is a video editor and compositor. Install instructions can be found on http://cvs.cinelerra.org/getting_cinelerra.html#ubuntu
[06:45] <Glombool> !kino
[06:45] <ubotu> kino: Non-linear editor for Digital Video data. In component main, is extra. Version 0.80-1ubuntu7 (dapper), package size 1071 kB, installed size 3616 kB
[06:45] <shmho> cafuego: but I have not install that ssmtp. Is it ok?
[06:45] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: apt-cache search ...
[06:45] <usli> marshall: fyi, i'm still using the live cd ( for testing first)
[06:45] <tuxtheslacker> cafuego, yeah, again, it's spitting out a ton of crap, and I need the headers.
[06:46] <starshine> hm, maybe I should just mail henrik, it'd be faster than finding him in the crowd :)
[06:46] <DarkMageZ> tuxtheslacker, i think you need libssl-dev for that particular error
[06:46] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: 'apt-cache search ssl | grep -- -dev' then.
[06:46] <DamnSon> i just installed ubuntu and I was having a problem where the display wasnt starting at the edge of my monior
[06:46] <usli> hellooo...
[06:46] <DamnSon> so theres like an inch of black space on the side of my screen
[06:46] <usli> marshall: it still can't play the sound
[06:46] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: You need to do a *little* bit of the hard work if you insist on compiling stuff.
[06:46] <MTecknology> !dualhead
[06:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dualhead - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:46] <DamnSon> i tried installing the nvidia drivers and its still the same, any idea what the issue may be?
[06:47] <DamnSon> i adjusted it on my monitor as well
[06:47] <MTecknology> @dualhead
[06:47] <usli> anyone
[06:47] <synic> MTecknology: what card?
[06:47] <usli> can help me with sound problem?
[06:47] <MTecknology> synicATI
[06:47] <synic> MTecknology: oh.  can't help ya then.
[06:47] <MTecknology> VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility U1
[06:47] <tuxtheslacker> cafuego, it's not that, I just have no idea which package I need :-). It's kinda annoying that ubuntu doesn't ship wiht the headers for these files... like build-essential should come with it, do you not think?
[06:47] <ACU> Does anyone knows about any application for Windows similar to NetMeeting (but open source if possible)?
[06:48] <DarkMageZ> tuxtheslacker, if it shiped with every possible one... it'd take up too much space
[06:48] <synic> ACU: there's something called gnome-meeting I think
[06:48] <cafuego> tuxtheslacker: Not really, it wouldn't fit on the CD and most people would have no need of them. Plus they EAT disk space.
[06:48] <thoreauputic> Does esd actually *do* anything useful? Everything appears to work with chmod -x /usr/bin/esd here ....  (/me hates esd)
[06:49] <MTecknology> great Fx froze
[06:50] <thoreauputic> Please name an app that actually breaks without esound/esd ...
[06:50] <eetfunk> can anyone send me their /etc/init.d/apache2 file?  i installed it from source and i don't have this file and it would be very handy!
[06:50] <cafuego> esdmixer?
[06:50] <ACU> synic: Thanks, I know there is Ekiga and GnomeMeeting but they are both for Linux only and I need something for Windows (Except NetMeeting)
[06:50] <cafuego> Why did you install it from source?
[06:50] <thoreauputic> cafuego: whichis useful for what  ?
[06:50] <synic> ACU: oh, I was all backwards.
[06:50] <JoseStefan> eetfunk, you could probably extract it from the deb file
[06:50] <cafuego> thoreauputic: Dunno, just made it up <heh>
[06:51] <thoreauputic> cafuego: heheh
[06:51] <JoseStefan> eetfunk, try packages.ubuntu.com
[06:51] <thoreauputic> :D
[06:51] <eetfunk> JoseStefan:  no idea how to do that
[06:51] <nalioth> Blinker: partman
[06:51] <thoreauputic> cafuego: system sounds I guess - which I don't want anyway
[06:51] <JoseStefan> eetfunk, with that webpage you can check the files within a pkg, then you can use dpkg to extract
[06:51] <cafuego> eetfunk: Why on earth didn't you just install the package?
[06:52] <eetfunk> cafuego: because 2.2.3 is not in apt-get
[06:52] <cafuego> Oh, you need the unstable version.
[06:52] <Blinker> nalioth: thx. typed that in the wrong window, heh
[06:52] <JoseStefan> cafuego, 2.2 is (stable) according to apache.org
[06:52] <eetfunk> cafuego: its not unstable
[06:53] <cafuego> JoseStefan: I'm sure they say so. Just like 2.0.2x <heh>
[06:53] <cafuego> Which wasn't,.
[06:53] <nalioth> !tell Blinker about ubotu
[06:53] <cbell> hi.  I'm fairly new to linux, 1+ years of experience.   However, I am nearly a full convert to ubuntu.  I've tried a few other flavors, suse, mandriva, redhat and found them to be Okay, but I never felt at home with them.  I just tried ubuntu, and this distro has me really excited.  I'm an MCSE at work, and while I make a living with microsoft systems, I am enjoying linux more and more every day.
[06:53] <JoseStefan> cafuego, minor mistake, happens to all

[06:55] <Glombool> Can anyone help me with phpgroupware?
[06:55] <thoreauputic> cbell: welcome to thecommunity :)
[06:55] <cbell> Thanks
[06:55] <Crippy-Boy> Whoops :D
[06:55] <eetfunk> JoseStefan: can i just extract one file?
[06:56] <cafuego> JoseStefan: No, my point is those newer versions tend to not be *actually* stabkle until they get to revision 10+
[06:56] <JoseStefan> eetfunk, with dpkg you can extract, but the whole thing, afaik
[06:56] <Glombool> !lives
[06:56] <thoreauputic> cbell: wait til you find all the great stuff in the repos and start digging deeper - all sorts of possibilities

[06:56] <JoseStefan> cafuego, i understand, especially when you add modules like PHP which doesnt officialy support apache 2.2.x
[06:56] <cafuego> yup
[06:57] <cbell> Yeah, I've been learning little by little and can do basic administrative tasks....do you have any weblinks or book recommendations?
[06:57] <JoseStefan> cafuego, but 'unstable' is a big word, you should call it that
[06:57] <Glombool> !phpgroupware
[06:57] <JoseStefan> cafuego, should 'not' *

[06:57] <thoreauputic> cbell: you knowabout the wiki?
[06:57] <cafuego> JoseStefan: 'untested in serious production'
[06:57] <AngryElf> how can i do a check disk, or disk analyzer...somethin like that
[06:57] <AngryElf> ?
[06:58] <JoseStefan> cafuego, :/
[06:58] <cbell> I've heard about it
[06:58] <thoreauputic> cbell: do you want commands etc or GUI ?
[06:58] <cafuego> JoseStefan: Which (based on my debian-based definition) equals unstable ;-)
[06:58] <usli> marshall: yes.....
[06:58] <usli> marshall: but it still can't produce sound

[06:58] <MTecknology> I'm trying to manually edit my xserver.xorg - under Section "Screen" does it matter what I put in for Device?
[06:58] <dibblego> MTecknology, yes
[06:58] <thoreauputic> cbell: see ubotu above
[06:58] <cbell> mostly etc I think.  I need to memorize commands more than anything.
[06:58] <cbell> Hey, thanks
[06:59] <dfgas> where is the icon that needs to be replaced for the main menu
[06:59] <MTecknology> dibblego, how do i figure out what to put there?
[06:59] <thoreauputic> cbell: a good start for commands is http://tusfiles.org

[06:59] <dad_> hello...i was wondering if anyone can help me with the program called GTK-Gnutella??
[06:59] <JoseStefan> eetfunk, opps
[06:59] <thoreauputic> cbell: ooops
[06:59] <dibblego> MTecknology, you have the name of one of your configured devices [Device] 
[06:59] <eetfunk> JoseStefan: got the file thanks
[06:59] <thoreauputic> cbell:  http://tuxfiles.org  of course
[06:59] <JoseStefan> eetfunk, anyways, you use dpkg-deb to extract ( the re-paste was a mistake)
[07:00] <drh> help my bird was pecking at the keys and somehow i lost my window decorations and cant bring them back
[07:00] <MTecknology> dibblego: I have the Device name of my main screen - not my second
[07:00] <cbell> thanks, thoreauputic.  Lemme browse this for a moment.
[07:00] <thoreauputic> !repos > cbell
[07:00] <dad_> GTK-Gnutella...anyone ...HELP!
[07:00] <drh> so now when i open a window I cna't resize it or move it or minimize it etc
[07:00] <dibblego> MTecknology, I did exactly that with two screens the other day - but that was at home - I don't have my xorg.conf handy
[07:00] <usli> marshall: so how???
[07:01] <dibblego> MTecknology, you should have two Device and Screen sections
[07:01] <AngryElf> how can i run a disk analyzer?
[07:01] <eetfunk> where is apache installed? can't find it
[07:01] <usli> marshall: is it because i'm using the live cd version, so it can't produce sound ?
[07:01] <thoreauputic> cbell: I'm getting ubotu to send you somelinks in /msg
[07:01] <dibblego> eetfunk, /etc/apache2 is where the configuration is
[07:01] <MTecknology> dibblego: nope, i'm trying to set that up in the xorg.conf file
[07:01] <thoreauputic> !docs > cbell
[07:01] <eetfunk> dibblego: i know, but the binaries...
[07:01] <dibblego> MTecknology, right, I mean you will have to enter that into xorg.conf
[07:02] <dibblego> eetfunk, you can find out through synaptic or apt-file
[07:02] <JoseStefan> eetfunk: the pkg i pointed you to, does not include bins
[07:02] <usli> okk
[07:02] <usli> i can now
[07:02] <MTecknology> dibblego: right, but i'm not sure what to put in for the second one
[07:02] <usli> i dunno how
[07:02] <usli> but it just can
[07:02] <usli> thanks
[07:02] <starshine> drh: probably your window manager app got closed, do you still see your menu bar?
[07:02] <dibblego> MTecknology, an identifier, driver, and BusID if I remember rightly
[07:02] <drh> starshine: yes im using gnome
[07:02] <JoseStefan> eetfunk: didnt you say you had installed from source?
[07:03] <MTecknology> dibblego: the one listed for my primary card is "VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility U1"
[07:03] <starshine> drh: you still have an xterm open by any chance?
[07:03] <drh> starshine: yes
[07:03] <thoreauputic> cbell: have you registered with nickserv? I suggest you do ( /msg nickserv help )

[07:03] <dibblego> MTecknology, I have something similar for a NVIDIA card - I just appended "Left" and "Right" to each one to make them distinct - they are just identifiers
[07:04] <starshine> glad to help
[07:04] <cbell> cool, registered
[07:04] <drh> starshine: sweet thanks for that :) I have compiz installed and when i try and restart that is when I get the problems

[07:05] <MTecknology> dibblego: are you thinking about the Identier string?
[07:05] <dibblego> MTecknology, yes
[07:05] <Arafangion> Why does multiple monitors mess up my glut/opengl programs?
[07:05] <MTecknology> dibblego: I was talking about the Device string
[07:06] <MTecknology> dibblego: can those be w/e?
[07:06] <dibblego> MTecknology, yes that refers to an identifier
[07:06] <MTecknology> ok, so just make em different and I should be fine?
[07:06] <cbell> Thanks for the friendly response.  I think I'm going to call it a night.  I'll have to rejoin this channel again =] .  Later
[07:07] <dibblego> MTecknology, yes - you will need one for each device
[07:07] <vic> anyone knows the latest desktop packge?
[07:07] <synic> vic: your question makes no sense.
[07:07] <IcemanV9> vic: can you be specific?
[07:07] <Soccrmastr> hey guys Im having a problem with running a podcast program
[07:07] <dibblego> the Screen section refers to each device
[07:07] <dibblego> and each Monitor
[07:07] <_Elijah_> anyone up for helping out with postfix ?   supposedly sends mail to remote user "out of the box" but its not doing so..
[07:08] <vic> i forgot the name of the new desktop
[07:08] <Soccrmastr> I tried podracer, ipodder, and penguintv from the repositories, none of them work :/
[07:08] <vic> it is some sort of 3d

[07:09] <IcemanV9> usli: do you have correct parameters to connect?
[07:09] <SurfnKid> any network engineers here who know about trunking lines and peripheral nodes?
[07:10] <eyequeue> mama, did you invoke it from the console?
[07:10] <MTecknology> dibblego: I tried only editing my xorg.conf file, i'm restarting and waiting for a crash :)
[07:10] <mama> im not sure?
[07:10] <dibblego> MTecknology, just keep a backup - I use subversion
[07:10] <eyequeue> mama, is it a gui app?
[07:10] <mama> i dont know
[07:11] <eyequeue> mama, start a terminal and type the command which runs it
[07:11] <w30> mama: what's the name of the program?
[07:11] <mama> gtk
[07:11] <eyequeue> mama, what is it called?
[07:11] <eyequeue> mama, you are not writing a program, right?
[07:11] <mama> no
[07:11] <synic> she/he is talking about gtk-gnutella again.
[07:12] <eyequeue> synak, how can you tell?
[07:12] <mama> yes i am
[07:12] <synic> eyequeue: I'm smrt.
[07:12] <MTecknology> dibblego: How do I boot into terminal?
[07:12] <eyequeue> mama, start up a terminal (applications > terminal) and type the program name there
[07:12] <MTecknology> i screwed it up
[07:13] <dibblego> MTecknology, if X fails to start you will be given a terminal
[07:13] <eyequeue> mama, start up a terminal (applications > accessories > terminal)
[07:13] <mama> ok well it tells me to upgrade but i tried that before
[07:13] <MTecknology> dibblego: it floods be with bcm43xx errors :)
[07:14] <MTecknology> because the stuff didn't start
[07:14] <aztek> hit ctrl c?
[07:14] <luckyone> what is the shadow group?
[07:14] <dibblego> MTecknology, sounds like you need to boot from the livecd and change it back
[07:14] <MTecknology> :'(
[07:14] <synic> mama: gtk-gnutella sucks.  apt-get install frostwire
[07:14] <MTecknology> how about a fresh install?
[07:14] <MTecknology> dang near ready for it
[07:14] <dibblego> MTecknology, or that if you're prepared to spend the extra time
[07:15] <MTecknology> but then i might as well swap HD
[07:15] <MTecknology> well, i have nothing now
[07:15] <geoffTheFish> I want to write a shell command that opens files with default app - does anybody know where to find the filetype-default app information?  is there some funky file somewhere?
[07:15] <mama> synic it tells me permission is denied
[07:15] <synic> mama: gotta use sudo
[07:15] <eyequeue> !info frostwire
[07:15] <ubotu> Package frostwire does not exist in any distro I know
[07:15] <JoseStefan> MTecknology, try recovery option, from the boot menu
[07:15] <synic>  apt-cache search frostwire
[07:15] <synic> frostwire - A Truly Free and Open Source Peer to Peer client

[07:16] <ubotu> Package frostwire does not exist in any distro I know

[07:18] <eyequeue> JoseStefan, no, it's not an ubuntu deb, it's third-party
[07:18] <eyequeue> JoseStefan, it's compatible with dapper though
[07:18] <JoseStefan> eyequeue, i think ubotu's reply is the way to go
[07:18] <mama> synic its not working
[07:19] <MTecknology> dibblego: I got it back, but I want a working computer :'(
[07:19] <eyequeue> JoseStefan, yes, that page sends you to an external deb

[07:19] <mama> ok im sorry......Couldn't stat source package
[07:19] <JoseStefan> eyequeue, do you meen that as a notice caution or warning?
[07:20] <JoseStefan> mean*
[07:20] <eyequeue> JoseStefan, depends what her security policy is.  i meant is as an explanation why the bot won't know it, it's not in the repos

[07:24] <^Down> I installed that before I did winesetuptk

If I plug the power back in, firefox will start RAPIDLY opening a TON of windows, up to 200 in a minute, in both Linux and Windows.
[07:32] <Sarra_> Does anyone know why this happens?
[07:32] <crofty> i will have a go at installing bitpim thanx

[07:34] <JoseStefan> JoseStefan, nope
[07:35] <metalero9> jejeje no paso nada
[07:35] <JoseStefan> Pulshion, should be on: usr/bin/fireglcontrol
[07:36] <nich0s_fr> pardon, how do I change language default?
[07:36] <donspaulding> hello all, I just installed the Dapper server and setup sshd, when I login over ssh I'm unable to use sudo.  Is there some way for me to fix this???  Any help appreciated.
[07:36] <CharonX> Does anyone know where openoffice puts recovered files ?????
[07:37] <CharonX> I was working and my comp locked up..
[07:37] <eyequeue> donspaulding, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[07:37] <Pulshion> JoseStefan -- it has gui right?
[07:37] <eyequeue> donspaulding, i'm not positive if that's client-only by default
[07:37] <nich0s_fr> is there a place for French?
[07:37] <JoseStefan> Pulshion, never used it, i'm giving you the info i get from packages.ubuntu.com
[07:38] <donspaulding> eyequeue: I have the ssh server installed and am logged in remotely
[07:38] <JoseStefan> !fr ? nich0s_fr
[07:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fr ? nich0s_fr - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:38] <JoseStefan> !fr > nich0s_fr
[07:38] <donspaulding> myquestion is why can't I use the "sudo" command over ssh?
[07:38] <ubuntu> hi guys
[07:38] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, merci.
[07:38] <eyequeue> donspaulding, but can't sudo when you do?  i can't see a reason there
[07:38] <Pulshion> JoseStefan -- oh k, thanx anyway
[07:38] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, no problem
[07:39] <donspaulding> well, the command runs, but it prompts me for a password
[07:39] <eyequeue> donspaulding, you're still using the intial account, right?  just remotely?
[07:39] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> mabe root already?
[07:39] <donspaulding> nope
[07:39] <eyequeue> donspaulding, you type your user's pasword
[07:39] <donspaulding> I'm using my non-admin account
[07:39] <eyequeue> donspaulding, yes
[07:39] <IcemanV9> CharonX: if you restart OOo, it'll ask you if you want to recover the file or not
[07:39] <JoseStefan> donspaulding, non-admin account doesnt have sudo
[07:39] <eyequeue> donspaulding, type "don's" password, not root's password
[07:39] <donspaulding> OK
[07:39] <ubuntu> brownie what up
[07:40] <CharonX> IcemanV9, I restarted it asked for recovery. But then opened a blank document...
[07:40] <CharonX> IcemanV9, Does that mean I lost everything ?
[07:40] <SurfnKid> hey guys
[07:40] <donspaulding> Thanks guys
[07:40] <SurfnKid> any here who know about trunking lines and peripheral nodes?
[07:40] <brownie> hey?
[07:40] <CharonX> IcemanV9, It said recovery was sucessful
[07:40] <eyequeue> donspaulding, did it work for you?
[07:41] <IcemanV9> CharonX: not sure, this is far i know about it.
[07:41] <donspaulding> yep, it works, Thanks again!
[07:41] <ubuntu> i am facing a problem
[07:41] <eyequeue> donspaulding, great
[07:41] <nich0s_fr> Sorry, how do I change my default language?
[07:41] <IcemanV9> CharonX: it happened to me before, and i got all data intacted.
[07:41] <CharonX> IcemanV9, I think I lost everything :(
[07:42] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr: System, Administration, Language Support
[07:42] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> Lol, you got to it before I did I was in the middle of typing
[07:42] <IcemanV9> CharonX: sorry. :/
[07:42] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, In there, it only lists English under default languages.
[07:43] <Soccrmastr> im runnign Xubuntu 64mb ram 420mhz processor, tried podracer, penguintv, and ipodder none will work. any idea why, or any alternative thats small/easy-to-use?
[07:43] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, is the language you want enabled in the boxes above?
[07:43] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> check one
[07:43] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, That would make a difference?
[07:44] <Soccrmastr> nichos_fr: theres a french ubuntu support irc channel
[07:44] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, i think you need to check in the languages you want on the system, and then you can select them as default
[07:44] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, Thank you for your help.
[07:44] <synic> Soccrmastr: are you aware of tab completion?
[07:44] <cafuego> ipodder uses java does it not? That'll be ouch on 64Mb. I use 'gtkpod' here, which works fine.
[07:44] <eyequeue> !fr
[07:44] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:45] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, That channel is so dead...
[07:45] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, sorry
[07:45] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, Don't be :)
[07:46] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, even in "daylight in france" hours?  (i'm not even in eu, no idea)
[07:47] <JoseStefan> eyequeue, french is not only spoken in france ;)
[07:47] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> +
[07:47] <cafuego> -
[07:47] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> lol, accendint
[07:47] <eyequeue> JoseStefan, yeah, but i know it's late in montreal ;)
[07:47] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, Thank you for all of your help. After I have downloaded the appropriate packages, it is only a matter of slecting the language, right?
[07:47] <nich0s_fr> It's spoken EVERYWHERE.
[07:48] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, never tried it myself, but should be, a reboot might be nice
[07:48] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, ... like windows? :P
[07:48] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, just jokinh
[07:48] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, i know there are language packs for both gnome, and OOo, not to mention for aspell or whatever you use
[07:48] <nich0s_fr> joking
[07:48] <Soccrmastr> guys, the system font for my desktop wont change from the Xfce UI manager.
[07:48] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, i still have the bad habit of rebooting, on linux it is rarely needed
[07:49] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, I know what you mean :)
[07:49] <wills> Hey, has anyone else had issues getting the Java plugin to work when manually installing a newer version of Firefox?
[07:49] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, personally, it still makes me feel better
[07:49] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, find some hour someone is alive in there and ask what other packages are useful that i don't know about, having come from an english country
[07:49] <JoseStefan> wills, why would you install ff manually?
[07:49] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, Which contry?
[07:49] <nich0s_fr> err country?
[07:50] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> wills: there are java things for firefox in add/remove programs
[07:50] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, don't hate me, but en_US
[07:50] <wills> JoseStefan: Was installing the beta release.  Wanted to test compatibility of the new version with something I'm doing at work
[07:50] <Soccrmastr> lol
[07:50] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, I don't hate you for that, I am here too.
[07:50] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, I think you are right... this will require a reboot :P
[07:50] <wills> XxXBrAnDoNXxX: Will they apply to manually installed Firefox?
[07:51] <wills> XxXBrAnDoNXxX: I installed it following the wiki page
[07:51] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, Haven't been here for very long...
[07:51] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, in that case, welcome
[07:51] <JoseStefan> what if i'm not in the US?
[07:51] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> wills: lol, sorry not shure about manually installed ff but try it and find out.
[07:52] <JoseStefan> :P
[07:52] <JoseStefan> can i have a cookie?
[07:52] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> wills: not sure if it will  even work on  a beta version of ff
[07:52] <eyequeue> JoseStefan, welcome ... to #ubuntu lol
[07:52] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> wills: "its all about trial and error"
[07:53] <nich0s_fr> #ubuntu, the multi cultureal "melting pot" of the computer planet.
[07:53] <nich0s_fr> world
[07:53] <MTecknology> HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   I edited my xorg.conf file, restarted. now when I turn on my computer my secondary monitor is black and my primary is brown, but there is some white on the side and putting my mouse over it give me a help box saying "Answer questions here and press ENTER when done. For a menu press F10." But that's all I see of it. I can press F10 and have the login menu...
[07:53] <minerale> How do I refresh the contents of the gnome menu ?
[07:53] <MTecknology> ...options. NOW... When I press Ctrl+Alt+F1, my secondary screen turns on and just mirrors my primary screen.
[07:53] <fog_proxy> HI all. How can I install 'linux programmer manual' to my ubuntu?
[07:53] <FirstStrike> hmm, is there a way to actually make use of the forward and back keys on my mouse? Right now all they do is highlight text in firefox.
[07:53] <minerale> mtecknology: bad bad way to attract attention
[07:54] <eyequeue> yeah, there's a much stronger emphasis on internationalization than with other distros i've used before
[07:54] <fog_proxy> Even I want to see the 'write' function manual,I get nothing from man page
[07:54] <MTecknology> minerale: sorry, i'm slightly excited because it's progress
[07:54] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, internationalization?
[07:54] <eyequeue> minerale, "killall gnome-panel"
[07:54] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> minerale: ctrl alt backspace
[07:54] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> works for me lol
[07:54] <JoseStefan> minerale, you can restart X, thats what i do
[07:54] <FirstStrike> killall gdm
[07:55] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, well, translations, multi-character support, etc
[07:55] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, Ahh.. ok
[07:55] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, i'm going reboot :)
[07:55] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, see you soon :)
[07:56] <minerale> eyequeue: thanks, worked
[07:57] <minerale> josestefan, xxxbrandonxxx: a bit of overkill, turns out killall gnome-panel works just as good
[07:57] <fog_proxy> How can I install gcc manual page?
[07:57] <fog_proxy> What package should I apt-get?
[07:57] <_azrael> sudo apt-get install gcc
[07:58] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> minerale: lol, its just easyer that way for me
[07:58] <_azrael> shoudl also install the man page
[07:58] <minerale> do you have gcc?, (build-essentials)
[07:58] <eyequeue> minerale, no prob
[07:58] <nich0s_fr> I am now made happy :)
[07:58] <JoseStefan> minerale, i just use ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X
[07:58] <synic> gcc-3.4-doc
[07:58] <eyequeue> nich0s_fr, welcome back
[07:58] <alandd> I just did an install of Ubuntu Server.  I don't remember it asking me for the root password yet I cannot do anthing without it.  Is there a default root password on a new install or did I just miss it?
[07:58] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, da rein :)
[07:58] <eyequeue> !rootsudo > alandd
[07:58] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, now i wouldnt be able to understand your computer :(
[07:59] <eyequeue> alandd, see the bot's url, we don't use root in ubuntu
[07:59] <synic> whoa, mirc user alert :P
[07:59] <exs> ouch
[07:59] <alandd> eyequeue: thank you.  I'll go look.
[07:59] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, Si tu hablas espanol, comprendes el frances. :)
[07:59] <EffectCrash> lol.
[07:59] <MTecknology> I think I'm going to have to screw Linux for my needs... I'll see you all later :)
[07:59] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, If you understand spanish that it :P
[08:00] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, i speak spanish, but i have trouble with french
[08:00] <eyequeue> alandd, try the sudo way for a while before giving up on it :)
[08:00] <MTecknology> I'll keep you all in VMWare :)
[08:00] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, They are little similar :)
[08:00] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, :S
[08:00] <alandd> sudo asks me for a password.  I put in the user password?
[08:00] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, italian is
[08:00] <EriK_> yes, alandd
[08:00] <eyequeue> alandd, yes
[08:00] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> MTecknology: screw linux?! wtf
[08:00] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, Italian is almost the same language :)
[08:00] <alandd> Thank you.  Thank you.
[08:00] <synic> MTecknology: heh, way to give up  :P
[08:01] <eyequeue> alandd, it should "stick" for five minutes, so don't worry if not prompted next time
[08:01] <MTecknology> I've been looking and looking, but not finding any way to solve my issues
[08:01] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> Linux is way better than windows
[08:01] <alandd> eyequeue: Got it.  I'll go try again.
[08:01] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> MTecknology: what issues?
[08:02] <MTecknology> XxXBrAnDoNXxX: Wireless at DSU and using two monitors
[08:02] <MTecknology> I think I'll use Windows and play Winth Ubuntu in VMWare until I get the stuff working, then use my backup
[08:02] <kaot> paging a guru:  My junk don't boot, suddenly.  Gives me "Mounting /dev/hda2 failed: no such device", drops me into busybox.  I can then mount /dev/hda2 with no problems.
[08:02] <MTecknology> i have a FULL backup of where I am now
[08:02] <sirex> hello
[08:03] <nich0s_fr> eyequeue, * BenC_ s'appelle maintenant BenC (I am now happy) :)
[08:03] <kaot> My grub looks fine, my fstab looks fine.
[08:03] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> MTecknology: lol, ya linux hardware compatiblity is a little behind...
[08:03] <MTecknology> idk what else to do
[08:03] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> MTecknology: I use windows only for games, the rest is all linux.
[08:03] <MTecknology> I love Linux, it's very highly productive, when it works.
[08:04] <MTecknology> it's not working, i need to figure out how to make it work, but I need something working until I get there.
[08:04] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> MTecknology: I never used 2 moniters.
[08:04] <fog_proxy> No one help? I have no man pages for linux programming in my ubuntu
[08:04] <MTecknology> the wireless is my issue
[08:04] <JoseStefan> i use 2 PCs on 1 monitor
[08:04] <MTecknology> main issue*
[08:04] <kaot> Also, I blame MTecknology, because this happened because I rebooted while trying to get dual monitors working.
[08:04] <kaot> :D
[08:04] <JoseStefan> MTecknology, you might have better luck with the wifi
[08:05] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> MTecknology: thats and idea
[08:05] <sirex> in my hard drive I have 2 primary partitions, in one of those I installed windows and in other linux, grub doesn't find my windows partition automaticaly, how can I know whitch partition holds my windows instalation? (hd0,1) or (hd0,whatever) ?
[08:05] <XxXBrAnDoNXxX> MTecknology: an*
[08:05] <MTecknology> kaot: sorry
[08:05] <kaot> yeah yeah.  Find me someone that knows how to fix it.  :\
[08:05] <kaot> what's crazy is now it won't even boot windows, either.
[08:06] <MTecknology> kaot: what did you do?
[08:06] <kaot> MTecknology: rebooted for the first time in at least a week.
[08:06] <JoseStefan> kaot, how does that relate to dual monitors?
[08:06] <kaot> MTecknology: I'm guessing something changed since then.
[08:06] <MTecknology> lol
[08:06] <kaot> JoseStefan: nothing, except I rebooted.  Now it doesn't boot.  If I hadn't rebooted I'd be happily doing my thing.
[08:07] <nich0s_fr> kaot, What did we learn? :P
[08:07] <JoseStefan> kaot, could it be a faulty hard drive? i suggest you do backups soon
[08:07] <kaot> nich0s_fr: Never reboot.  I knew that already.  lol.
[08:07] <alandd> eyequeue: and EriK_: Thanks.  A little education is a good thing.  This was my first Ubuntu install to a hard drive.
[08:07] <kaot> JoseStefan: probably not, I've seen no signs of it going bad before now, and I can mount linux partitions from busybox with no problems.
[08:07] <eyequeue> alandd, well.celcome to ubuntu, and #ubuntu :)
[08:08] <kaot> JoseStefan: I'm not ruling it out, but this is kind of seriously out of the blue.
[08:08] <kaot> I've done some googling and found that this has happened for other people in situations where it wasn't caused by a bad hard drive.
[08:08] <nich0s_fr> kaot, has your hard drive been dropped from any large distances lately?
[08:08] <kaot> buggy udev, in one instance.
[08:08] <kaot> nich0s_fr: nope.
[08:08] <JoseStefan> kaot, can you sum' up your current partitions? (and OSes)
[08:08] <Darvesh> hello
[08:09] <nich0s_fr> kaot, then I have no clue :)
[08:09] <MTecknology> is there any way to use a crossover cable between two laptops to transfer data w/o having to install server apps on one?
[08:09] <tomasz27> which is better? Banshee or AmaroK?
[08:09] <kaot> JoseStefan: hda1: windows, hda2: linux /, hda3 extended for hda5 swap, and hda4 is spare space where I keep my music
[08:10] <Tomcat_> MTecknology: I don't think so.
[08:10] <MTecknology> well then, CD's are nice
[08:10] <JoseStefan> kaot, windows still works?
[08:10] <JoseStefan> kaot, what was that issue you said earlier
[08:10] <smdeep> MTecknology: you can use a crossover cable and scp to transfer data
[08:10] <kaot> JoseStefan: no, oddly.  Starts to boot, then bluescreens so fast I can't read it and then reboots automatically.
[08:11] <MTecknology> smdeep: how do i do that?
[08:11] <kaot> JoseStefan: which issue?
[08:11] <JoseStefan> kaot: so both windows and linux have issues out of nowhere?
[08:11] <smdeep> MTecknology: all u need is ssh running on both servers
[08:11] <kaot> JoseStefan: yeah.  I know you're going to say bad hard drive.
[08:11] <kaot> hhe
[08:11] <JoseStefan> kaot: backup right now, better safe than sorry
[08:11] <pickett> http://img224.imageshack.us/img224/4066/screenshotbi7.png
[08:12] <JoseStefan> kaot: your hard drive was nice enough to give you a warning
[08:12] <XpDuDe> Can anyone help me with wireless? I have a wpc11 ver3, and it's using the orinco driver. I want it to use the wlan-ng driver
[08:12] <smdeep> MTecknology: scp username@servernameorserverip:path/filename .
[08:12] <pickett> anyone know what I can do to make fonts go where they're meant to go?
[08:12] <nich0s_fr> kaot, Windows goes bad for no reason all the time and who knows if it tried to repair the disk causing this issue.
[08:12] <MTecknology> smdeep: ssh on windows and Ubuntu, then connect them with a crossover and log in with scp?
[08:12] <smdeep> MTecknology: windows! sorry I thought both were ubuntu comps
[08:12] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, afaik, windows will not mess with partitions it doesnt understand
[08:13] <smdeep> MTecknology: let me think
[08:13] <kaot> anytime I've seen a hard drive go bad stuff shows up in logs.  input/output errors and so forth.
[08:13] <nich0s_fr> JoseStefan, just a thought :)
[08:13] <MTecknology> smdeep: don't worry, i'm burning and it's about done, ty thouhg
[08:13] <smdeep> MTecknology: if you have samba on ubuntu it will be easy
[08:13] <JoseStefan> kaot, not always
[08:13] <smdeep> MTecknology: welcome
[08:14] <nich0s_fr> i am tired.
[08:14] <JoseStefan> kaot, it could be another hardware issue, but i'm doubting it. it could be faulty ram
[08:14] <nich0s_fr> good night.
[08:14] <JoseStefan> nich0s_fr, 'night
[08:15] <MTecknology> kaot, only time i ever seen a HD go bad (in my own machine) is after I put the laptop in a freezer and soaked the screen and beat it against a wall, floor, post, and ceilint
[08:15] <MTecknology> ceiling*
[08:15] <JoseStefan> MTecknology, did you get a new one?
[08:15] <MTecknology> yep, warranty
[08:15] <XpDuDe> Can anyone help me with my wireless problem?
[08:16] <JoseStefan> MTecknology, what did you put on the report? virus?
[08:17] <dmoyne> hello ! ; I cannot connect to my LDAP server (slapd) in SSL mode and I do not know what is wrong !

[08:36] <redwolf> kik tgabjs
[08:36] <redwolf> woops lo lthank s
[08:37] <Gumby> man, I am getting my nick complete horribly wrong tonight
[08:37] <BHSPitLappy> Gumby, my friend's ubuntu pc actually can't even install mplayer. unresolvable dependencies.
[08:37] <Gumby> BHSPitLappy: tell him to quit using crappy repos :)
[08:37] <BHSPitLappy> Gumby, you should be able to get mplayer using the repos that come with dapper.
[08:37] <BHSPitLappy> (multi/uni)
[08:38] <Gumby> BHSPitLappy: does he have any others enable that may have conflicting packages?
[08:38] <redwolf> it's telling me there is no installating for mplayer
[08:38] <usli> i need help
[08:38] <BHSPitLappy> lol
[08:38] <ebaad> syslog.log gives the error "localhost.localdomain: Failed binding to 0.0.0.0, port 21: Address already in use"
[08:38] <usli> i want to install my vga driver
[08:38] <BHSPitLappy> Gumby, he has my sources.lst
[08:38] <usli> how?
[08:38] <Gumby> ebaad: then something is already using port 21
[08:39] <ebaad> also this error "localhost.localdomain: Check the ServerType directive to ensure you are configured correctly."
[08:39] <BHSPitLappy> !vga
[08:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vga - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:39] <Gumby> redwolf: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-21138.html
[08:39] <ebaad> how can i check, can I check the services file to see if there is anything configured to run on port 21
[08:39] <Wodarski> hey does anyone know how to get ipw2200 working in ubuntu?
[08:39] <Gumby> !ipw
[08:39] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:40] <Gumby> BHSPitLappy: mplayer is installably just fine when using multiverse
[08:40] <Gumby> ii  mplayer        0.99+1.0pre7tr The Ultimate Movie Player For Linux

[08:41] <Gumby> BHSPitLappy: so like I said, the only reason for his to be broken is if he has used 3rd party packages that conflict
[08:41] <ebaad> the only thing running on port 21 is "ftp             21/tcp"
[08:41] <myUserName> can someone tell me how to make a function loader I am aware of __autoload($class) {} but I want to make one that can autolaod functions for use in a few scripts of mine how do u do it?
[08:42] <BHSPitLappy> Wodarski, ipw2200 works brilliantly :) (I'm communicating with you using one.)
[08:42] <Gumby> ebaad: is that the output of netstat -tpan |grep 21
[08:42] <Gumby> ?
[08:42] <usli> guys
[08:42] <Wodarski> sweet
[08:42] <usli> how to install my vga driver
[08:42] <Gumby> rather, what IS the output
[08:42] <Wodarski> i'm glad to know some one got it working
[08:42] <ebaad> no that was from the /etc/services file
[08:42] <Wodarski> gives me inspiration
[08:43] <Gumby> usli: that realy depends on your video card
[08:43] <Wodarski> I just changed distros from opensuse
[08:43] <JoseStefan> !tell usly about binarydriver
[08:43] <Wodarski> I had just gotten wifi working on that
[08:43] <Gumby> Wodarski: ipw is usually fairly painless
[08:43] <JoseStefan> !tell usli about binarydriver
[08:43] <ebaad> the output of  netstat -tpan |grep 21 is "tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:21              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN     5088/inetd"
[08:44] <Wodarski> I'm sure it is I am still somewhat new to linux on laptops
[08:44] <usli> thanks
[08:44] <Wodarski> my desktop is gentoo
[08:44] <Gumby> ebaad: so there is already a program running that is listening on the ftp port
[08:44] <Gumby> ebaad: do you get a response when you type ftp localhost
[08:44] <Wodarski> gentoo + my laptop = poop on a stick, so I've been trying new distros
[08:45] <JoseStefan> i think inetd fwds to the FTP server
[08:45] <ebaad> it says "421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection"
[08:45] <Gumby> inetd forwards to port 21?
[08:46] <clearzen> I have a problem I can't find a solution to. Anytime I insert a PCMCIA card. I've tired a few too. It completely freezes my laptop. If i press ctrl+alt F1 and insert the card it gives me a kernel bug. Does anyone have an idea?
[08:47] <clearzen> my PCMCIA slot shares an IRQ with my ethernet btw
[08:47] <Gumby> clearzen: sounds like a kernel module isnt playing nice
[08:47] <Gumby> Ive seen that happen before with laptops and sharing IRQ's
[08:48] <Gumby> clearzen: try upgrading/downgrading your kernel version
[08:48] <clearzen> my bios does not support irq changes either
[08:48] <Gumby> for fun try disabling the network card and blacklisting its modules nad see if you still have issues
[08:48] <clearzen> i;ve tried upgrading a few times. Not downgrading though
[08:48] <Gumby> then you at least know for sure its an irq conflict
[08:49] <clearzen> I have disabled all networking modules by blacklisting them and it does not freeze
[08:49] <clearzen> I think it is the yenta driver
[08:49] <clearzen> but i'm not sure
[08:49] <Gumby> load them manually and see
[08:50] <clearzen> ok, I've got the same hardware working in Knoppix
[08:50] <clearzen> where would i look to see the differences in the modules running in the system
[08:50] <Gumby> like I said, kernel issues :)
[08:51] <ebaad> Hi Gumby, can you please help me setup the ftp since it is giving error for service not available
[08:51] <clearzen> ok, I'll just manually try modules then
[08:51] <Gumby> see if you can get a knoppix kernel working in ubuntu or roll your own kernel
[08:51] <tokyoahead> hi guys,... say if I use virtualization under ubuntu, does the available software always simulate a specific hardware, or is there some that creates a virutal client that can use the actual hardware?
[08:52] <clearzen> I've never made a kernel before. I haven't used linux that long
[08:52] <clearzen> but I could try it. As long as i have a backup
[08:52] <Gumby> ebaad: I'd have to setup ftpd for that :)
[08:52] <ebaad> oh ok
[08:52] <clearzen> thanks
[08:52] <Gumby> clearzen: no time like the present :)  you can have multiple kernels in your bootloader so if one doesnt work you can choose another
[08:52] <ebaad> That ok I will try later
[08:53] <ebaad> thanks for the help anyway

[08:55] <Gumby> Softimage: if you are using samba (which you are) you need to create a samba username/password
[08:56] <feet> just ubuntu, not the other distros
[08:56] <Gumby> usli: is it a linux driver?
[08:56] <Softimage> Gumby: where do i do that
[08:56] <Gumby> Softimage: I usually just do it via command line
[08:56] <ompaul> !samba > Softimage
[08:56] <usli> anyone
[08:56] <Gumby> Softimage: sudo smbpasswd -a newusername
[08:56] <usli> help me please with this vga problem
 just ubuntu, not the other distros --> is gtkpod & other ipod stuff not part of ubuntu?
[08:57] <feet> nope
[08:57] <Gumby> usli: no one is going to help if you dont answer the questions asked to you
[08:57] <feet> totally different distributions
[08:57] <Gumby> barata: gtkpod is in ubuntu yes.  ipodlinux is not however
[08:57] <usli> which question ?
[08:57] <Softimage> Gumby: ty much
[08:57] <usli> Gumby: which question?
[08:57] <Gumby> usli: if you are going to ask questions then pay attention when people respond to you.
[08:58] <barata> feet: were you the one who didn't know how to use iwconfig
[08:58] <Gumby> usli: I asked if the driver was a linux driver
[08:58] <feet> nope
[08:58] <Gumby> usli: the one that came with the motherboard
[08:58] <usli> yap...
[08:58] <usli> it have a folder named linux
[08:58] <Gumby> usli: whats the name of the driver?
[08:58] <usli> i assumed it should be a linux driver
[08:58] <Gumby> usli: what video card is it?
[08:58] <usli> wait
[08:58] <usli> i loop up
[08:58] <usli> i look up
[08:58] <barata> feet: you couldnt help your friend to get his wireless to work?
[08:59] <Gumby> getting a wifi card to work is often much more than just iwconfig
[08:59] <feet> yeah
[08:59] <feet> well i didnt say i couldnt
[08:59] <Gumby> it really depends on the card
[08:59] <NickGarvey> Enfors: root!?
[08:59] <feet> i just am not 100% sure
[08:59] <usli> Gumby: savage_drv.o
[08:59] <JoseStefan> it would probably be much easier installing a driver from the reposs
[08:59] <Enfors> NickGarvey: Yeah, only temporarily though
[08:59] <usli> that's the file name
[08:59] <NickGarvey> :)
[09:00] <arooni> i know grep works on text searches within a file, but how can i search for items with a certain filename
[09:00] <Gumby> usli: can you open a console/terminal and type the command....   lspci |grep -i vga
[09:00] <Gumby> usli: then paste the output here
[09:00] <usli> ok
[09:00] <JoseStefan> !pastebin
[09:00] <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)
[09:00] <NickGarvey> arooni: maybe "locate" or "find"?
[09:00] <Enfors> What does Ubuntu use in place of inetd? My inetd.conf is empty, which I interpret as Ubuntu not using inetd.
[09:01] <usli> Gumby: 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266] 
[09:01] <usli> that's the msg
[09:01] <bbrazil> arooni: find
[09:01] <arooni> bbrazil: i dont see the option to search by filename
[09:01] <arooni> still reading thru man page
[09:01] <bbrazil> arooni: -name, -regex
[09:02] <JoseStefan> the xorg provided driver should be enough
[09:02] <usli> so how is it ?
[09:02] <Gumby> usli: grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:02] <Gumby> usli: but dont paste the output of that one here
[09:02] <Gumby> usli: paste it to a pastebin (http://rafb.net/paste) then paste the resulting URL back here.
[09:03] <usli> ok
[09:03] <usli> i'm on it
[09:03] <Enfors> What does Ubuntu use in place of inetd? My inetd.conf is empty, which I interpret as Ubuntu not using inetd.
[09:03] <usli> there are a field of language in the url
[09:03] <usli> which one should i use?
[09:04] <Gumby> plain text
[09:04] <usli> ok
[09:04] <Gumby> it really doesnt matter though :)
[09:04] <Healot> xinetd, Enfors, or maybe another Internet superserver, i can't recall
[09:04] <usli> Driver          "kbd"         Driver          "mouse"   Driver        "wacom"   Driver        "wacom"   Driver        "wacom"         Driver          "savage"
[09:04] <usli> ok...
[09:04] <Gumby> lol
[09:04] <usli> that's the output
[09:04] <Enfors> Healot: Thanks, I'll check
[09:04] <Gumby> ok, forget the paste
[09:04] <JoseStefan> Enfors, i think none by default
[09:05] <usli> Gumby: then what?
[09:05] <Gumby> usli: your video card is setup properly most likely.  why do you feel it is not?
[09:05] <arooni> bbrazil: i am using -name but i'm not getting any results
[09:05] <Enfors> JoseStefan: I'm installing cvsnt, and it tells me to add it to inetd.conf. If I don't have inetd, then what should I do instead? Make cvsnt run all the time?
[09:05] <usli> the screen is so big
[09:05] <bbrazil> arooni: it uses globs
[09:05] <arooni> bbrazil: i'm sorry?
[09:06] <usli> when i was using the live cd, it looks smaller
[09:06] <usli> the resolution
[09:06] <bbrazil> arooni: e.g. a*on?
[09:06] <usli> when i want to edit it in resolution
[09:06] <JoseStefan> Enfors, i checked my synaptics and although there are many offerings, none are installed
[09:06] <usli> it dont have any other selection
[09:06] <arooni> ahh
[09:06] <Enfors> JoseStefan: Oh, so I could just "apt-get install inetd"?
[09:07] <usli> Gumby: so, is there a way to make my resolution smaller ?
[09:07] <Healot> xinetd  >> yeah, I am sure of this
[09:07] <Gumby> usli: what is the output of lsmod |Grep savage
[09:07] <JoseStefan> Enfors, check in synaptic for the different flavors of inetd
[09:07] <Gumby> sorry,  lsmod |grep savage
[09:07] <Enfors> JoseStefan: Ok, I will. Thanks.
[09:07] <arooni> how can i sort by date
[09:07] <arooni> when i do ls -l
[09:07] <usli> savage                 35584  1

[09:07] <usli> ups
[09:07] <usli> sori
[09:07] <usli> forgot the go to the url
[09:08] <usli> that's the output
[09:08] <Gumby> usli: what resolution is it currently set to?
[09:08] <usli> resolution: 640x480 with refresh rate 60Hz
[09:09] <Gumby> yikes, that blows
[09:09] <JoseStefan> sounds like you need:
[09:09] <usli> yap...
[09:09] <JoseStefan> !xconfig
[09:09] <ubotu> xconfig is To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[09:09] <usli> so, how to make is smaller
[09:09] <Gumby> usli: do as JoseStefan suggested
[09:09] <Gumby> make sure to choose all the resolutions you want
[09:09] <usli> what suggestion?
[09:09] <JoseStefan> what ubotu said
[09:09] <Gumby> "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:09] <Gumby> without the "
[09:10] <usli> Please enter the video card's bus identifier.
[09:11] <usli> what should i enter for this?
[09:11] <JoseStefan> usli, in most cases, it should autodetect and have the box pre-filled
[09:11] <Gumby> usli: does it show anything there?
[09:11] <AbortD> anyone online?
[09:12] <AbortD> hey gumby :D
[09:12] <Gumby> something like PCI:x:x:x
[09:12] <Gumby> lo AbortD
[09:12] <AbortD> can you help me gumby?
[09:12] <Gumby> usli: if so just press OK
[09:12] <Gumby> AbortD: I dont know unless you ask your question
[09:12] <usli> ok
[09:13] <Andruk> !wifi
[09:13] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:13] <JoseStefan> !askthebot
[09:13] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops
[09:14] <AbortD> well i hear of a "live" cd for ubuntu it is supposed to run from the cd before you install to try it or something?
[09:14] <AbortD> eh where can i find this i searched around
[09:14] <Gumby> AbortD: as far as I know, all versions are livecd's
[09:14] <AbortD> ooo how do i do that?
[09:14] <ompaul> AbortD, www.ubuntu.com and click on download
[09:14] <JoseStefan> livecd aka = desktop
[09:14] <usli> Gumby: xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration   file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20060905141403
[09:14] <eetfunk> whats the gdbm-devel package name on ubuntu?
[09:14] <usli> ok
[09:14] <eetfunk> its not *-dev
[09:14] <usli> i have finieshed the wizard
[09:15] <AbortD> i can run things though right?
[09:15] <usli> then what should i do ?
[09:15] <JoseStefan> usli: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:15] <Gumby> usli: looks good.  now log out of gnome (your desktop) and once you get back to the login prompt press ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X and have the new configuration used
[09:15] <ompaul> eetfunk, poke the results for this:  apt-cache search  gdbm
[09:15] <JoseStefan> or what gumby said, easier
[09:15] <Gumby> AbortD: yes
[09:16] <eetfunk> thnx! didnt know about this one
[09:16] <Gumby> AbortD: its a fully funtional desktop where you can click on an "install" icon if you like what you see
[09:19] <usli> guys
[09:19] <usli> thanks a lot
[09:19] <usli> ge..
[09:19] <JoseStefan> usli, all good?
[09:19] <Gumby> np, glad to help out
[09:19] <usli> u guys are really something
[09:19] <usli> yap...
[09:19] <JoseStefan> np
[09:20] <usli> JoseStefan, Gumby: thanks a million
[09:21] <AbortD> lets hope i can figure out how to remove fedora core
[09:22] <JoseStefan> if i do man debconf, and at the bottom it says "see also debconf(7)" how do i see that instead?
[09:23] <timsh_el_> (q): does anyone know how to enable video output to a television via s-video cable on ubuntu?
[09:24] <Gumby> AbortD: mke2fs -j /hdxX :)
[09:24] <timsh_el_> (q): does anyone know how to enable video output to a television via s-video cable on ubuntu?
[09:24] <Gumby> timsh_el_: depends on the video card
[09:24] <timsh_el_> gumby: it is an ati mobility 9000
[09:25] <Gumby> ah, cant help ya there.  only know nvidia in those regards
[09:25] <AbortD> can you get on the net with the desktop?
[09:25] <timsh_el_> ick
[09:25] <timsh_el_> ah well. thanks
[09:25] <Gumby> AbortD: most of the time yes
[09:26] <Gumby> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-22965.html  < ---  if he had of stuck around he may have gotten that
[09:26] <ompaul> JoseStefan, read man man the commands if printed would be in a series of books and debconf in 7
[09:26] <AbortD> lol
[09:26] <ompaul> JoseStefan, or at least my take on it
[09:27] <AbortD> hm when this download finishes i will prolly be back in a few
[09:27] <JoseStefan> i'v read man man, i still dont know how to do it
[09:27] <Typhon> man <number>
[09:27] <AbortD> mke2fs -j /hdxX uninstalls?
[09:28] <j`ey> im reading a tutorial to setup wireless, it says do sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
[09:28] <AbortD> i got wireless too :|
[09:28] <j`ey> is there anyway to grab the files on another machine?
[09:28] <JoseStefan> im guessing it would be: man 7 debconf, but thats not it
[09:29] <ompaul> JoseStefan, the man pages are set up with the following logic - see the numbers in man man - and commands with the number 8 behind them are particular to the System Managers Manual - does that help?
[09:29] <JoseStefan> ompaul, so its possible i am missing docs, and i'm doing the command correctly?
[09:30] <JoseStefan> ompaul, debconf(7) = man 7 debconf  ?
[09:30] <dragonrider8> hello everybody
[09:30] <bbrazil> JoseStefan: yes
[09:31] <AbortD> that's how you setup wireless?
[09:31] <ompaul> JoseStefan, what you see in man debconf is what you would see if it was a printed manual set - but the debconf would be in "book 7" if they were done as numbers
[09:31] <dragonrider8> is there a command t change the resolution screen , except the command xserver-xorg ?
[09:32] <JoseStefan> ompaul, debconf has both debconf(1) and debconf(7)
[09:32] <gansinho> anyone knows how to disable the function that create icons in the workspace for the mounted drivers?
[09:32] <Tidus> dragonrider8: xrandr from a terminal
[09:32] <dragonrider8> thank you Tidus
[09:32] <JoseStefan> ompaul, man states the default is to show only the 1st page
[09:33] <AbortD> tidus is there a setup for wireless?
[09:33] <JoseStefan> ompaul, but i think the problem is i dont have debconf(7) at all
[09:33] <grndslm> i know it's not ready, but has anybody tried knot 2 and thought that aiglx was even remotely stable on intel graphics chips?
[09:33] <Tidus> AbortD: i know nothing about wireless, sorry
[09:33] <AbortD> k thanks
[09:33] <JoseStefan> grndslm, #ubuntu+1
[09:33] <AbortD> Tidus what does mke2fs -j /hdxX do?
[09:33] <Lilandra> Hello
[09:34] <Tidus> AbortD: creates an ext3 file system on that partition
[09:34] <AbortD> and formats?
[09:34] <Tidus> yes
[09:34] <grndslm> JoseStefan, thanx
[09:34] <AbortD> so i can type that into fedora core to remove it and then install ubunto?
[09:34] <Tidus> you can format the partitions directly from ubuntu's setup
[09:34] <AbortD> ooo
[09:35] <JoseStefan> AbortD, if you want to remove another os entirely, i would use the parition editor instead
[09:35] <cvt|expert> how do i get files from my digital camera?
[09:35] <AbortD> why JoseStefan?
[09:35] <JoseStefan> AbortD, cleaner IMO
[09:35] <AbortD> hm i need to check what partition my bootloader is on :|
[09:36] <Ademan> i've seeded nearly 2 gigs of the ubuntu 386 torrent in the past couple days :-)
[09:36] <AbortD> partition magic work?
[09:36] <AbortD> fack
[09:36] <ompaul> JoseStefan,  so it is 1   Executable programs or shell commands ::7   Miscellaneous  (including  macro  packages and conventions), e.g. man(7), groff(7)  << so it is in both sections however for debconf no one created the section 7 page
[09:37] <AbortD> does ubuntu have a bootloader?
[09:37] <j`ey> grub
[09:37] <AbortD> cool i think that's what i'm using
[09:37] <AbortD> it sets into a extended partition right?
[09:38] <Drevan> ok got the broadcom wireless working again with ndiswrapper... hope it can stay working this time
[09:38] <JoseStefan> ompaul, i just tested with man: i can do "man 1 man" and "man 7 man" thats basicly the cmds i wanted
[09:39] <gansinho> please, anyone knows how to disable the function that create icons in the workspace for the mounted drivers?
[09:42] <dibblego> I have just installed a wireless NIC and I see an additional device with `lspci` but I do not see an additional interface with ifconfig -a how do I configure it then?
[09:42] <ompaul> JoseStefan, this is a better job of it than me http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_intro/sect_02_03.html
[09:42] <sklim> apt-get update and upgrade takes a long time for slow bandwidth, is there way I can download these files and burn on CD. Then apt-get update from the CD?
[09:43] <JoseStefan> ompaul, i got it now, i was just confused since i was doing the cmd, but the page did not exist, so i didnt know if it was my fault or not
[09:43] <Steven_M> hi all
[09:44] <JoseStefan> sklim, what are you trying to do/
[09:44] <dibblego> should there be an additional interface listed with ifconfig -a or do I need to install something?
[09:45] <midgetg0at> Stupid question time: How do i copy all of the files and sub directories of a directory...
[09:45] <Gumby> does anyone know what the authentication method is calledfor websites where an image is created with numbers and or letters that the users must then input?
[09:45] <midgetg0at> ohh, i used to know this one Gumby...
[09:45] <sklim> JoseStefan, we have slow bandwidth so it take 1hr just apt-get upgrade, any solutions
[09:45] <SirHoek> Away: :: Auto-away after 60 mins of inactivity :: I left at: :: 09:45:52am ::
[09:45] <dibblego> midgetg0at, cp -R

[09:46] <midgetg0at> how about delete a directory and all it's contents?

[09:47] <Hyakutaro> hey guys how's it going?
[09:47] <Steven_M> does the version bittornado on the ubuntu repository support selective downloding?
[09:47] <Hyakutaro> does anyone know if the contact list of Kopete can be skinned?
[09:47] <usli> is there any application in ubuntu that have similiar functionality like putty in windows?
[09:47] <sklim> JoseStefan, just change setting to /apt/source.list to incldue universal, multiversa and then apt-get upgrade
[09:47] <Hyakutaro> because I really hate the default one, especially when I'm running gnome
[09:47] <midgetg0at> i would imagine there are a couple shell programs...
[09:48] <Hyakutaro> ?
[09:48] <usli> is there?
[09:48] <JoseStefan> sklim, just adding universe and multiverse, should not cause long download times, did you add dapper-updates and dapper-security too ?
[09:49] <Steven_M> no idea, sorry Hyakutaro
[09:49] <sklim> JoseStefan, yes both
[09:49] <j`ey> is there anyway way to manualy download the files reciever from apt-get install?

[09:57] <tarkowski> hello, can someone advise me what to do - i accidentally deleted all the net drivers in /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-386/kernel/drivers/net - and of course i can't connect to the net anymore
[09:57] <mtholdenss> anyone here got songbird?
[09:57] <tarkowski> how do i restore those files? do i need to recompile my kernel?
[09:57] <usli> ok..
[09:57] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, reinstall the linux-restricted-modules for your kernel
[09:58] <tarkowski> simply reinstall, with apt-get?
[09:58] <Steven_M> does anyone here use bittornado?
[09:58] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, apt-get might need some flags to force the re-install
[09:59] <tarkowski> es
[09:59] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, --reinstall
[09:59] <azathoth> when i woke up, an app i was running had crashed, how can i get a log of why it crashed?
[09:59] <tarkowski> ok, thanks JoseStefan
[09:59] <j`ey> can I manually download files that I get with apt-get ?
[09:59] <usli> thanks
[09:59] <usli> i'm gonna try it
[09:59] <JoseStefan> j`ey, packages.ubuntu.com
[10:00] <mtholdenss> songbird?
[10:00] <j`ey> JoseStefan: thanks
[10:02] <diezare> How can I recompile the kernel?
[10:02] <hilde> I need some help I killed my Xserver and don't know how to get it back running. I installed XGL on two monitors with two diffrent resolutions. That worked for one day but an update made it crash. So I wanted to unistall it. However know X doesn't start at al. Not even GDM
[10:03] <JoseStefan> hilde, try #ubuntu-xgl
[10:03] <JoseStefan> !kernel > diezare
[10:03] <hilde> JoseStefan, I don't want XGL anymore... Just simple the xserver working!
[10:03] <mtholdenss> hilde go to terminal then type compiz-start
[10:03] <mtholdenss> and change your start up script to compiz-start
[10:03] <midgetg0at> or just login using a different session
[10:04] <hilde> mtholdenss, I apt-get reomove compiz mtholdenss
[10:04] <radone> please, haw can I install esd (enlighten sound daemon)
[10:04] <diezare> JoseStefan, I don't get u
[10:04] <mtholdenss> oh well then if u did that then i dont kow how to help u then
[10:04] <hilde> midgetg0at, I cant get back in gdm
[10:04] <hilde> how do I change then the session?
[10:04] <JoseStefan> diezare, read the msh ubotu sent you
[10:04] <midgetg0at> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[10:04] <midgetg0at> startx
[10:05] <diezare> thnx dude
[10:05] <JoseStefan> msg*
[10:05] <hilde> midgetg0at, then I get a crash
[10:05] <midgetg0at> sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:05] <ChaosFan> hilde: there should be a menu called session at the login screen where you can choose your window manager
[10:05] <hilde> he cannot open any device and complains of all sort of thing
[10:05] <JoseStefan> !xconfig
[10:05] <ubotu> xconfig is To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[10:05] <midgetg0at> remove the xgl module
[10:05] <JoseStefan> try that'
[10:05] <midgetg0at> or just remove the module so you dont lose any other settings.
[10:05] <tarkowski> JoseStefan, i've reinstalled that package, but the files did not reappear - do i need to do more?
[10:05] <hilde> ChaosFan, I'm kicked out to command line no GDM
[10:05] <Drevan> ok, updated the system and ndiswrapper and wireless are dead again :
[10:06] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, what pkg exactly?
[10:06] <phreakys> hi
[10:06] <phreakys> Windows did not shut down properly.  Try to mount volume in windows, shut down and try again.
[10:06] <tarkowski> linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-386
[10:06] <hilde> midgetg0at, I already reverted to old settings of X and even made a new xorg.conf
[10:06] <ChaosFan> hilde: then you don't have to worry about changing your session at the moment ;)
[10:06] <hilde> nothing seems to work
[10:06] <phreakys> i get this message while trying to get ntfs support for my external usb driver
[10:06] <DonLemmi> Is there a way to manage the ubuntu started services for the different runlevels from console?
[10:06] <Mr_E> hi all, my problem is: I'm running Ubuntu 6 in VMWare.  When I was running from the Live CD, my network was working.  Now that I've installed & rebooted, I can't see any network stuff.  Any ideas?
[10:07] <midgetg0at> hrm...have you tried to uninstall the packages?
[10:07] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, search for that pkg in packages.ubuntu.com, and look for "list files" see if it has the files you need
[10:07] <j`ey> JoseStefan: Is there any easy way to install stuff, it has thousnads of depenmdecys
[10:08] <hilde> midgetg0at, that started my problem uninstalling xgl-server and compiz
[10:08] <JoseStefan> j`ey, using synaptic
[10:08] <midgetg0at> if i knew what file held the startup options, ou could probably remove your startup command
[10:08] <hilde> I already tryied to reinstall them but noting seem to work
[10:08] <JoseStefan> j`ey, or apt
[10:08] <midgetg0at> how did you install it...
[10:08] <midgetg0at> which tut/howto?
[10:08] <hilde> I need to get normal X back up runing
[10:08] <j`ey> JoseStefan: but I dont have interneta access
[10:08] <JoseStefan> !xconfig > hilde
[10:08] <midgetg0at> considered reinstalling gnome? ;)
[10:09] <ketsugi> try installing kde instead ;)
[10:09] <midgetg0at> sudo apt-get remove gnome-panel gnome-panel-data
[10:09] <nalpha> guys what software that can edit pdf files??
[10:09] <JoseStefan> j`ey, thats always a problem
[10:09] <nalpha> guys what software that can edit pdf files?? of course free software
[10:09] <ketsugi> sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[10:09] <JoseStefan> !pdf
[10:09] <ubotu> pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/gpdf, evince and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source)
[10:09] <j`ey> JoseStefan: Im trying to get a packaeg to get m internet
[10:09] <Mr_E> If I run ifconfig, I seem to have an IPv6 address but not IPv4. Is this to do with why I can't see anything on the net?
[10:10] <nalpha> guys what software that can edit pdf files?? of course free software... i mean to edit not to view...
[10:10] <FirstStrike> open office?
[10:10] <Dru> Mornin
[10:10] <Dru> see the forum gone tits up again
[10:10] <nalpha> open office?? how?
[10:10] <arooni> um why when i do ... cp ruby_sess* backup/
[10:11] <arooni> nothing happens?
[10:11] <arooni> i mean i get this error 'argument list is too long'
[10:11] <arooni> whats up with taht
[10:11] <midgetg0at> cp -r ruby_sess* backup/ ?
[10:11] <sklim> JoseStefan, does Ubuntu release Update CD's may this may help users has low bandwidth.
[10:11] <infidel> i tried everything i can think of and i can't get mplayer or any other dvd program to work anyone got any ideal on making dvd's work?
[10:12] <arooni> ocsds-1711 tmp # cp -r ruby_sess* backup/   -bash: /usr/bin/cp: Argument list too long
[10:12] <midgetg0at> peep this infidel: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[10:12] <Dru> you installed css
[10:12] <JoseStefan> sklim, they released Ubuntu 6.06.1
[10:12] <arooni> what do i do when the argumetn list is too long
[10:12] <infidel> midgetg0at: cu cu
[10:13] <JoseStefan> sklim, but what fits on 1 cd is only to get started, the repos are over 100gb
[10:13] <tarkowski> i've looked for that package on packages.ubuntu.com and it's strange - the page states: You have searched for the contents of linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-386 in dapper, architecture i386.
[10:13] <tarkowski> Can't find that package, at least not in that distribution and on that architecture.
[10:15] <b0re> is there any repos with xfce-svn?
[10:15] <b0re> xfce4-svn*
[10:15] <arooni> midgetg0at: what do i do when i get that argument list is too long
[10:15] <Wettendorff> Hi all..
[10:16] <arooni> i'm doig this for 5000 files
[10:16] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, i realized that
[10:16] <gbrent> anyone know a way to change the color of the text on the clock in Ubuntu? I cant seem to cange it
[10:16] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, i guess you could go down to an older kernel, remove the new one, and reinstall it, be carefull
[10:16] <Wettendorff> can anyone tell me how i join a workgroup??
[10:16] <tarkowski> how do I remove a new kernel?
[10:16] <b0re> tarkowski, dpkg -i <kernel>
[10:17] <b0re> err dpkg -r <kernel?
[10:17] <b0re> my bad
[10:17] <b0re> im not an ubuntu person
[10:17] <gbrent> tarkowski: you can remove it from the bootloader
[10:17] <Wettendorff> can anyone tell me how i join a workgroup??
[10:17] <arooni> folks
[10:17] <arooni> what can i do if the argumetn list is too long
[10:17] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, you remove that package in synaptic
[10:17] <gbrent> Wettendorff: install samba server... sudo apt-get install samba
[10:18] <tarkowski> do you think i can just follow instructions for 'kernel compilations for newbies' (it's a ubuntu howto) and rebuild my kernel that way?
[10:18] <sklim> JoseStefan, I mean Update CD just contains security fix and software upgrades for Drappers 6.06.1
[10:18] <gbrent> Wettendorff: then you will have to edit the samba.conf file where it says network mshome
[10:18] <b0re> tarkowski, i wrote a good tutorial for rebuilding kernels if you want to read it
[10:18] <JoseStefan> sklim, there are no stand-alone update CDs, that i am aware off
[10:18] <Wettendorff> gbrent: thanks.. can i also join a domain in that??
[10:19] <tarkowski> b0re will that solve my problem - restore the drivers that i've deleted by accident?
[10:19] <b0re> it should if you compile them in :p
[10:19] <gbrent> Wettendorff: yes... just put the domain name in there but usernames/password for joining a windows domain controller with active directory is a little trickier. I think you have to get into LDAP with that
[10:19] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, do you have other kernels you can boot to right now?
[10:19] <arooni> folks
[10:20] <arooni> whe the arugment list is too long
[10:20] <arooni> what should i do?
[10:20] <tarkowski> yes, i'm currently booted with my previous kernel, i imagine it means i'm back to breezy...
[10:20] <b0re> tarkowski, http://ccssnet.phoenix-hosting.org/ref/txt/from%20b0re@shytb0x.com/kernel-ubuntu.txt
[10:20] <gbrent> arooni: you should not come in here and spam
[10:20] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, not necesarily, there are many dapper kernels
[10:20] <arooni> well no one answers my qeustion
[10:20] <sklim> JoseStefan, may I know were does Dappers security fix and software updates files located, may be I can download them
[10:20] <arooni> i thought it would be a farily simple question to answer
[10:20] <arooni> i'm sorry
[10:20] <Wettendorff> gbrent: thanks.. i will look in to it
[10:20] <JoseStefan> tarkowski, well go to synaptic, remove the package in question, and re-install it right away
[10:20] <gbrent> arooni: well be patient, if you remember I came in at the same time as you and no one answered mine
[10:21] <tarkowski> sorry, which package?
[10:21] <Teekwod> you know what i fucking hate more than anything
[10:21] <JoseStefan> sklim, packages.ubuntu.com    archive.ubuntu.com
[10:21] <gbrent> Wettendorff: good luck thats what were here for

[10:23] <jkp> hi all - does anyone know what file i need to alter to fix the udev permissions for /dev/nst0 ?
[10:23] <Madpilot> such maturity & wit...
[10:23] <jkp> they are set to 0640 but this doesnt work with bacula
[10:23] <Genscher> ok, so back to my question...
[10:23] <gbrent> arooni: it looks like the command that you are passing has to many arguments. i am not familiar with the command that you are running. Not sure what to do other than check to make sure it is correct
[10:24] <Genscher> any special things i should know about when installing ubuntu on a AMD XP-M laptop?
[10:24] <gbrent> arooni: Some one else in here may know
[10:24] <Trephine> Is it always this crazy in here?
[10:24] <Genscher> (energy amangement,..)
[10:24] <Genscher> *management
[10:24] <gbrent> Genscher: Just add the battery applet to the panel once it is installed... nothing more
[10:25] <Dru> Trephine your anser is YES lol
[10:25] <gbrent> anyone know a way to change the color of the text on the clock in Ubuntu? I cant seem to cange it
[10:25] <Trephine> Oh no lol
[10:25] <Wettendorff> gbrent: where do i finde that samba.conf, so i can edit it?
[10:25] <Genscher> gbrent: i see a batterie on the top right, so that seems to work :) is fan-management also working? i read some posts in the ubuntuforum that the fan doesn't startet on some computers...
[10:25] <gbrent> sec.. ill tell you
[10:26] <Genscher> :)
[10:26] <Dru> well my linux section to my web site fiddlings is comming together
[10:26] <Trephine> Mine keeps going into hibernate. Trying to figure out how to stop that
[10:26] <gbrent> Wettendorff:I think its in /etc/samba.con or /etc/samba/samba.conf
[10:27] <gbrent> Genscher: the fan depends on the mother board... how its plugged in
[10:27] <gbrent> Genscher: or if the mother board records its speed
[10:27] <Genscher> uh, at least i think i hear it running...don't know which though ;)
[10:28] <Wettendorff> gbrent: it was in /ect/samba and the file is called "smb.conf"
[10:28] <gbrent> Genscher: Laptop fans kick on and off when temperatures change to save on battery power
[10:28] <Dru> fans not running, never heard that one seeing as the fan connect to the power bus of the MB & will always have power irrespective of OS instaled
[10:28] <gbrent> Wettendorff: did you find whre it says mshome?
[10:29] <Wettendorff> gbrent: yea.
[10:29] <Trephine> I think I am in the wrong channel #ubuntu-servers is where I need to be. Oops
[10:29] <gbrent> Wettendorff: all you do is change that to your domain or workgroup
[10:30] <Trephine> Well, have a good night/morning
[10:30] <Genscher> gbrent: it's running since i startet the laptop i think. i didn't hear another fan. is there some script or application to check fan-status? (laptop is 2-3 years old so the chipset - SiS i think - might be supported :)
[10:30] <Dru> opinions on my site !! http://www.dru.owns.it
[10:30] <Wettendorff> gbrent: great... will read a litle more in that file..
[10:30] <gbrent> Genscher: well I never got my fan reporting to work right, although i did not try very hard
[10:31] <Trephine> Ok this was the right channel lol
[10:31] <gbrent> does anyone in here have a different color for thier clock other than black text?
[10:31] <gbrent> I cant change the color for some reason
[10:31] <hoehaver> hello all, I have a question
[10:31] <hoehaver> I downloaded ubuntu 6.10 knot 2 and it's a live install
[10:32] <Genscher> gbrent: where could i check fans?
[10:32] <hoehaver> after it loaded everything it took me to a blank screen with a blinking line to the top left
[10:32] <Mocka> I'm running Windows XP.
[10:32] <Mocka> 0.o
[10:32] <hoehaver> it stayed there for like. 10, min's. when I installed ubuntu 6.06 it didn't stay at the screen for that long.
[10:32] <hoehaver> why would it do this?
[10:32] <Genscher> (btw. it's great that ubuntu worked 95% out of the live-cd on the laptop so my friend said "let's change to linux then")
[10:32] <gbrent> Genscher: you want to add an applet to see if the fan reports its speed?
[10:33] <Genscher> yes, if there is one :)
[10:33] <hoehaver> I tested the cd for errors and it ran the test and after it was done it took me to the same black screen with the blinking underscore
[10:34] <gbrent> Genscher: right click panel> add applet > those are the default applets
[10:34] <gbrent> Genscher: I don't see one for the fan though
[10:35] <Genscher> thanl you for the hint. i have the live-dvd in the moment, maybe i find it :)
[10:35] <ubuntu> how to change th host name_
[10:35] <gansinho> please, how do I change the default programs in ubuntu ? (eg. change the default music player or the default browser )
[10:36] <hoehaver> does someone know why it would stay at that one blank screen for soooo long?
[10:36] <Wettendorff> gbrent: i cant save the file..
[10:36] <hoehaver> I had enough ram for the live install of ubuntu 6.06 so I guess I had enough for 6.10 knot 2
[10:36] <radone> please could anyone help me how to install esound? I got error /bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: No such file or directory
[10:37] <gbrent> sudo vi /etc/smb.conf
[10:37] <gbrent> you were not root
[10:37] <hoehaver> so noone can shead light on my prob
[10:37] <gbrent> radone: find the repository then use apt-get ... have you tried that?
[10:37] <Wettendorff> gbrent: oh.. that was the problem
[10:38] <Trephine> Hobbsee?
[10:38] <Trephine> =D
[10:38] <Hobbsee> Trephine: heya
[10:38] <Trephine> Nec
[10:38] <Trephine> Maty
[10:38] <gbrent> Wettendorff: I hate when that happens
[10:38] <Trephine> Same Hobbsee?
[10:38] <mowgli> gbrent, i'll pick up where Wettendorff left off: i'm having problems with connecting to a win98 pc with through windows share. Ubuntu (Samba) sees there's a Windows share, but there's no machine inside it. neither win98 can see Ubuntu or get internet access. PS: during boot, DHCP says [Fail] . help?
[10:38] <Hobbsee> Trephine: ohhh!  hello :)  indeed.
[10:38] <Trephine> Excellent, how are you?
[10:39] <Trephine> Thank you
[10:39] <gbrent> mowgli: which one can not get online? the 98 or ubuntu?
[10:39] <Hobbsee> Trephine: that answer your question?  :)
[10:39] <Trephine> =P
[10:40] <mowgli> ubuntu OK through eagle-usb modem. it's the win98 (with cross-wired ethernet cable on Ethernet) that's blind.

[10:54] <jpriest> has anyone had the problem with web pages directing you to non-flash sites, even when flash works on other sites in firefox?
[10:55] <LookTJ> infidel: ubotu pm you
[10:55] <misieq> can i use dd to copy whole disk or do i have to copy partition ba partition? (i mean dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/sda)
[10:55] <misieq> s/ba/by/
[10:55] <JoseStefan> jpriest, usually badly design webpages with limited browser compatibility
[10:55] <^Down> Where am I supposed to save libraries?
[10:55] <^Down> /lib/?
[10:56] <jpriest> JoseStefan, does http://www.milbestlight.com/ direct you to a non-flash site?
[10:56] <jpriest> JoseStefan, I want to test this.
[10:56] <JoseStefan> ^Down, you usually install them using synaptic, and it takes care of everything
[10:56] <Wettendorff> gbrent: how do i install something from my cdrom0?
[10:56] <Genscher> here i am again :) ok, installed ubuntu on laptop. now i try to get internet aceess through network
[10:56] <JoseStefan> jpriest, hold on, i have many browsers
[10:56] <^Down> How would I do it, without using that
[10:57] <mowgli> gbrent: what should i do with ipconfig and ifconfig?
[10:57] <Genscher> PING e.g. google.de is working fine, 0% packet loss BUT firefox and "aptitude update" are having problems
[10:57] <Genscher> (wget is also working)
[10:57] <Chandu> hi , I want to disable the ssh passwd , how do I do that
[10:58] <Genscher> firefox seems to be unable to resolve server name or something....
[10:58] <Wettendorff> gbrent: i have a ".rpm" and a ".tar.gz" on the disk..
[10:58] <Chandu> I want to access my another pc through ssh without entering passwd
[10:58] <Genscher> lasts very long and does nothing
[10:59] <noiesmo> is there a way to cat a file and pipe it thru say grep but only show lines that dont end in a particular string
[10:59] <DBO> yes
[10:59] <JoseStefan> jpriest, works fine on all my browsers linux and windows
[10:59] <DBO> noiesmo, cat file | grep -v string$
[10:59] <jpriest> JoseStefan, thanks

[10:59] <noiesmo> DBO, cheers
[11:00] <zcat[1] > Chandu: You can do that by putting your public key in the target host's .ssh directory, can't recall exactly where but 'man ssh' might help
[11:00] <Chandu> zcat [1] : Thank U , I will check man page
[11:00] <noiesmo> Cheers DBO worked like a charm :)
[11:00] <DBO> noiesmo, you know it ;-)
[11:01] <jpriest> JoseStefan, I got it working by manually using flash-installer from the tar.gz file, instead of the ubuntu package.  works now.
[11:01] <JoseStefan> ok
[11:02] <noiesmo> DBO, you should have told me to rtfm or man grep lol
[11:02] <Wettendorff> gbrent: how do i install something from my cdrom0?
[11:02] <Wettendorff> gbrent: i have a ".rpm" and a ".tar.gz" on the disk..
[11:02] <JoseStefan> Wettendorff, it's a lot easier if you find a DEB
[11:04] <Wettendorff> JoseStefan: it is vmwaretools that i like to install
[11:04] <usli> guys
[11:04] <usli> which browser is better
[11:04] <usli> Konqueror 3.5, firefox, opera
[11:05] <crashd> imho, firefox
[11:05] <JoseStefan> !best
[11:05] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[11:05] <noiesmo> usli, personnal choice really I like firefox
[11:05] <crashd> links ftw.
[11:05] <crashd> clearly
[11:05] <usli> yap
[11:05] <usli> me too
[11:05] <usci> hi, i was looking for param to boot text-installer from dapper-drake 6.06 cd, i red about alternate cd but i don't have it
[11:05] <DonLemmi> Get it
[11:05] <knoppix> h
[11:05] <usli> but the display in firefox seems a bit weird
[11:09] <zcat[1] > weird how?
[11:09] <usli> the font is difefrent
[11:09] <knoppix> ni men quan shi zhu.
[11:09] <usli> when i was viewing it using opera, it looks just fine
[11:09] <usli> but in firefox, it looks a bit smaller
[11:09] <crashd> viewing what?
[11:09] <noiesmo> usli, change it thru edit preferences
[11:09] <usci> eheh, ther's no way without alternate cd to have lighter installation then graphical?
[11:09] <noiesmo> usli, under content there's font etc
[11:09] <usli> ok
[11:09] <usli> thanks
[11:09] <DonLemmi> usci, dunno, you might have a look at the installer options
[11:09] <JoseStefan> usci, you need alternate cd
[11:09] <DonLemmi> but i guess you need the alternate or server cd

[11:27] <mistform> so it messed up my system, and that's why I just reformatted.... I've had to do it because of buffer I/O errors all the time
[11:27] <TLE> usli: gedit should be there already "programs - accesories - textediting" I think I'mm translationg it form my dansih menu
[11:27] <JoseStefan> mistform you should have the same components on all the repositories
[11:27] <blackline> Hi, my sound doesnt work, I get a red X-symbol next to the speaker up in the right corner, and when I click the icon it says I have no g-streamer plugin. I dont know what this is. Anyone?
[11:28] <mistform> well it was fine until I upgraded with the Ubuntu Wiki's repositories
[11:28] <JoseStefan> mistform, just enable them using synaptic, it's a lot easier
[11:28] <mistform> yeah, I thought I did
[11:28] <usli> almost forgot
[11:28] <usli> the application also must able to open from ftp
[11:29] <mart> hi,
[11:29] <mart> anyone ever got flash working on amd64 ubuntu
[11:31] <Maggot1n> Hello
[11:31] <blackline> whats gstreamer?
[11:31] <Maggot1n> How can I add a system monitor "widget" to the desktop?
[11:31] <Maggot1n> Is it posible, I saw it on some KDEs
[11:31] <Maggot1n> But im using gnome
[11:31] <crashd> Maggot1n: if you install the widget thing
[11:31] <crashd> i can't remember what the hell it's called, gwidgets? checkout the ubuntu wiki
[11:31] <mjr> gdesklets
[11:31] <usli> guys
[11:31] <crashd> that's the bugger
[11:32] <usli> so...
[11:32] <JoseStefan> i gtg
[11:32] <usli> is there any application like that in ubuntu?
[11:32] <usli> a text editor that can open from ftp
[11:32] <mistform> I just added the Multiverse and it still won't find Jre
[11:32] <Maggot1n> something like this one http://primer.no-ip.com/img/escritorio-septiembre.png
[11:32] <_JuDgEn_> !fakeraid
[11:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fakeraid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:33] <ubuntu> hey
[11:33] <_JuDgEn_> need some help with fakeraid, anyone got some exp?
[11:33] <mistform> I just made sure all of them were check-marked, too
[11:33] <ubuntu> can someone help me where is the configuration from the modules which are loaded in to the kernel?
[11:34] <ubuntu> can someone help me where is the configuration from the modules which are loaded in to the kernel?
[11:34] <blackline> one last try. anyone that can explain what gstreamer is and why my sound doesnt work? if i click the sound icon up in the right corner it says that i need a gstreamer plugin, so i have no sound.
[11:35] <_JuDgEn_> blackline have you installed the plugins packages?
[11:35] <_JuDgEn_> blackline:  you need to have multiverse and universe to be able to install
[11:35] <blackline> _JuDgEn_ ok, shoul i just do "apt-get install gstreamer" ?
[11:37] <_JuDgEn_> sudo apt-get install gstreamer*
[11:37] <ofer> what is the root password after installing ubuntu
[11:37] <_JuDgEn_> ofer: its the one you specified during install
[11:38] <ofer> it's not working now :(
[11:38] <Wettendorff> how do i install a file from my cdrom0?? i need to install the vmwaretools-5.5.0
[11:38] <_JuDgEn_> ofer: are you trying to su, im going to tell you that it does not work
[11:38] <_JuDgEn_> ofer: you are supposed to use sudo
[11:38] <ofer> sudo su?
[11:38] <_JuDgEn_> no
[11:39] <_JuDgEn_> sudo "whateverappyouwannarun"
[11:39] <_JuDgEn_> as root account is disabled by default
[11:39] <_JuDgEn_> for safety reasons
[11:39] <mistform> this is messed up
[11:39] <mistform> WTF did I type wrong???
[11:39] <mistform> i couldn't manually type it, so I copied it from the ubuntu guide and it was this: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[11:39] <ofer> right :)
[11:39] <ofer> now working
[11:40] <mistform> but I still fail to see wtf I did wrong
[11:40] <mistform> seriously
[11:40] <mypapitfx> wtf indeed
[11:40] <mistform> it's pissing me off to no ends
[11:40] <mistform> I've already reformatted because of I/O erros and BS like that earlier today
[11:40] <mistform> TWICE today
[11:40] <ajmitch> mistform: check that you don't just have multiverse enabled for dapper-updates or dapper-security
[11:40] <mistform> it was just Dapper TLS
[11:40] <rambo3> help http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=251217
[11:40] <mistform> so I obviously typed something wrong
[11:41] <ajmitch> put your sources.list on pastebin somewhere, please
[11:41] <mathieu> does anyone know how i can prevent network places appearing on my desktop?
[11:41] <ofer> I installed wireless driver - cpwu6d          driver present but now how do I make it work ?
[11:41] <mistform> delete it
[11:41] <_JuDgEn_> mistform: if you get io errors on disks i assume you are using either fakeraid or ext partitions
[11:41] <ofer> don't see it in the network part
[11:41] <mathieu> mistform: is that for me?
[11:41] <FirstStrike> mistform: i'm pretty sure ubuntu will just re-add it the next time the wireless device connects though.
[11:42] <Wettendorff> how do i install a file from my cdrom0?? i need to install the vmwaretools-5.5.0
[11:42] <mistform> _JuDgEn_: I reformatted with Ubuntu doing the whole thing automatically
[11:42] <mistform> I didn't set anything custom
[11:42] <_JuDgEn_> Wettendorff: just mount the cd and install it
[11:42] <mistform> mathieu: what exactly do you mean by "appearing on my desktop?"?
[11:42] <mistform> mathieu: is there a link to Network Places on your desktop?
[11:42] <Wettendorff> _JuDgEn_: I have done that.. but how do i install it?? i only get a cd, with 2 files on it
[11:43] <_JuDgEn_> ext is used by default though... makes me crazy all those fsck's and no journal =)
[11:43] <_JuDgEn_> what are the names of the files?
[11:43] <mathieu> mistform: when i "connect to a server", i get an icon for every "connection" an my desktop
[11:43] <rambo3> mathieu, do you have samba share that is auto mounted in /etc/fstab
[11:43] <mathieu> an=on
[11:43] <mistform> mathieu: an icon near your time/date?
[11:43] <mathieu> mistform: no, just on the desktop
[11:44] <_JuDgEn_> Wettendorff: what are the names of the files?
[11:44] <ubitux> yo
[11:44] <mathieu> mistform: like a samba share, an ftp account etc..
[11:44] <Maggot1n> And, is there any simple app to play mp3s?
[11:44] <Maggot1n> I mean, rithymbox is to heavy
[11:44] <Healot> mpg123
[11:44] <_JuDgEn_> Maggot1n: xmms is still the king
[11:44] <mathieu> mistform: i can't delete those icons, only disconnect
[11:44] <FirstStrike> Maggot1n: xmms
[11:44] <mistform> mathieu: I thought it was something simple, but I guess not. maybe right click it and see if you can change some sort of settings
[11:44] <FirstStrike> you can collapse all the windows
[11:44] <Genscher> back again :)
[11:44] <FirstStrike> it's very minimal
[11:45] <Genscher> weird thing - wget/ping is fine, but firefox/aptitude seems to resolve some hostnames to 1.0.0.0
[11:45] <mistform> I didn't type anything wrong.... for some reason it just decided to piss me off
[11:45] <mathieu> mistform: nope, i would ask if it were that simple
[11:45] <Maggot1n> Okie thanks FirstStrike
[11:45] <_JuDgEn_> 10.0.0.1?
[11:45] <mathieu> woulN'T
[11:46] <Genscher> de.archive.ubuntu.com (1.0.0.0)
[11:46] <goga> hi everyone ...i have a problem with compiz plugins ....i can't change the parameters in almost every plugin ...and in gconf-editor it says "this schema has no key "
[11:46] <goga> any help?
[11:46] <mistform> mathieu: you know more about Linux than I do, I was just trying to see if I could help with something simple
[11:47] <Wettendorff> _JuDgEn_: they are named: "VMwareTools-5.5.0-18463.i386.rpm" and "VMwaretools-5.5.0-18463.tar.gz"
[11:48] <usli> guys
[11:48] <usli> after i add/remove
[11:48] <_JuDgEn_> Wettendorff: copy the tar.gz into /home/"yourusername"
[11:48] <usli> then select the software, then click ok
[11:48] <usli> nothing happened
[11:48] <Maggot1n> FirstStrike, Omg, really thank you, xmms is great :)
[11:48] <usli> what's wrong?
[11:48] <highvoltage> Maggot1n: you might also like beep-media-player
[11:48] <kingdong> please specify the full details usli
[11:48] <_JuDgEn_> Wettendorff: then do a "tar -zxvf VMwaretools-5.5.0-18463.tar.gz" and read instructions
[11:49] <highvoltage> it's very xmms'y, and it's gtk2 based
[11:49] <usli> i want to install a diagram editor
[11:49] <ketsugi> sudo aptitude install dia
[11:49] <Maggot1n> Well, what's the difference between them?
[11:49] <usli> application--add/remove
[11:49] <FirstStrike> Not a whole lot, really
[11:49] <usli> then select the software
[11:49] <usli> then click on ok button
[11:49] <FirstStrike> beep pretty much looks exactly like xmms
[11:49] <Maggot1n> I think Ill stay with xmms :P
[11:49] <_JuDgEn_> xmms has more plugins if you want them
[11:49] <R0cK3T> i got quake 3 working
[11:50] <FirstStrike> Yea, there's a lot of plugins for xmms
[11:50] <R0cK3T> but the fps is really crappy
[11:50] <usli> but nothing happened?
[11:50] <FirstStrike> I recommend xmmsfind
[11:50] <_JuDgEn_> also dektop applets can controll xmms like superkaramba
[11:50] <R0cK3T> mouse works
[11:50] <FirstStrike> If you have a large play list
[11:50] <R0cK3T> no sound
[11:50] <Maggot1n> Woah, Thank you all :D
[11:50] <R0cK3T> i installed latest ati driver
[11:50] <Trephine> Would anyone happen to know if there is a way to stop an Ubuntu server install on a really old iMac from going into hibernate? Been trying to figure this out for quite a while.
[11:51] <rambo3> R0cK3T, install alsa-oss
[11:51] <R0cK3T> is there anyway i can get quake to use the right driver?
[11:51] <R0cK3T> anything for the fps tho?
[11:51] <usli> kingdong: so...
[11:51] <iskywalker1> hi!
[11:51] <dsl610> hello
[11:51] <R0cK3T> or is it supposed  to be 2-4 fps
[11:51] <_JuDgEn_> R0cK3T: use the right driver? you mean the graphics driver?
[11:52] <_JuDgEn_> LOL
[11:52] <R0cK3T> yeah i guess
[11:52] <iskywalker1> i cant print with a printer connected to an ubuntu server from a windows xp computer
[11:52] <Maggot1n> And, how can I know if if have lowid or not on amule?
[11:52] <iskywalker1> can someone help me?
[11:52] <R0cK3T> its so close to working
[11:52] <_JuDgEn_> R0cK3T: sorty
[11:52] <Maggot1n> Ah ok, I have it :P
[11:52] <_JuDgEn_> R0cK3T: start a terminal
[11:52] <rambo3> R0cK3T  fglrxinfo is ok ?
[11:52] <R0cK3T> see
[11:52] <R0cK3T> i think that's the prob
[11:53] <R0cK3T> how do i get it to recognize the fglrx
[11:53] <_JuDgEn_> R0cK3T: and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" choose fglrx instead of default
[11:53] <meathead> can someone help me configure a sound card in DamnSmallLinux, I know this isn't their support channel but no one is in theirs...
[11:53] <blackline> _JuDgEn_ if i install gstreamer* i will get LOTS of packages, is that really right?
[11:53] <_JuDgEn_> yes
[11:53] <R0cK3T> ok
[11:53] <_JuDgEn_> blackline: most are very small
[11:53] <FirstStrike> you're not going to find a lot of people that use DSL here
[11:53] <_JuDgEn_> blackline: after that though you will have about every codec in the world =)
[11:54] <_JuDgEn_> im 1000mbit fibre =)
[11:54] <meathead> anyone?
[11:54] <Maggot1n> and what's the command for ipconfig (windows) on linux
[11:54] <R0cK3T> _JuDgEn_: that command doesn't work
[11:54] <iskywalker1> meathead: i help you only if you help me ;), it should be easy, did you have the needed drivers for the kernel?
[11:54] <blackline> _JuDgEn_ ok, isnt there anyway just narrowing out the exact gstreamer i want?
[11:54] <orbin> Maggot1n: ifconfig
[11:54] <_JuDgEn_> meathead: i recoment going to knoppix channel, as dsl is based on it
[11:54] <R0cK3T> im using mandriva
[11:54] <Maggot1n> Thank you orbin
[11:55] <^Down> What is a good .rar archive manager
[11:55] <rambo3> R0cK3T, then go to madriva
[11:55] <_JuDgEn_> yes
[11:55] <_JuDgEn_> dpkg is debian-world only
[11:55] <R0cK3T> ?
[11:55] <_JuDgEn_> and mandriva is a rpm derrative
[11:55] <meathead> _JuDgEn_: well :P iskywalker is going to help me
[11:55] <iskywalker1> Someone who knows cups and samba? i tried every thing
[11:56] <_JuDgEn_> R0cK3T: #mandriva
[11:56] <iskywalker1> meathead: yes knoppix and debian should be best channel although
[11:56] <meathead> iskywalker1: I don't have the drivers from the manufactuerer but I can get them easily if needed, it's probably much easier than that thought and I really just need to do something silly to get generic drivers working
[11:57] <meathead> alright, I'll check those channels too and see if there is anyone in there who can help me
[11:57] <iskywalker1> meathead: lspci, see which drivers you need and get them for your kernel , or compile them. you will need a alsa driver i thing, dont look for the manufacturers
[11:58] <_JuDgEn_> is dsl alsa nowdays or still oss?
[11:58] <rambo3> !dsl
[11:58] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[11:59] <iskywalker1> _JuDgEn_: if it is debian it should be alsa
[11:59] <iskywalker1> can someone help me with the cups and samba?
[11:59] <_JuDgEn_> true, but it wasnt before since of its size restrictions
[11:59] <meathead> lspci = Neomagic Corporation NM2200

[12:00] <orbin> meathead: middle-click
[12:00] <meathead> orbin: gotta left and right click at the same time, which is tricky on a laptop
[12:01] <meathead> hmm, so that's how you copy, how do you paste
[12:01] <Dimensions> i am using my mobile as gprs modem when i connect it gets connected to ohci hcd ( usb host controller driver ? )  what does ohci hcd do and how can i use it for gprs modem connection as till now i have to create node of ttyACM0 which disappears every time i reboot system

[12:05] <Grok_> installing ubuntu on an old thinkpad as we speak using the alternative cd with the text mode installer. will this still install gnome by default or will i need to do that manually after it finishes?
[12:05] <meathead> rambo3: good idea, lemme check that
[12:06] <meathead> hmm, crap, this OS doesn't have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:06] <meathead> man, I'm such a nub when I'm not using ubuntu
[12:08] <FirstStrike> DSL doesn't run gnome or kde either :P
[12:09] <orbin> Grok_: AFAIK, yes ... desktop and alternate still install DE.  only the server disk doesn't.
[12:09] <Grok_> orbin: thank you very much
[12:09] <orbin> meathead: it's proabbly still runninng Xfree86
[12:09] <BHSPitLappy> that's correct... the alternate cd's text installer installs just like the desktop cd does
[12:09] <orbin> meathead: do an ls in /etc/X11
[12:10] <BHSPitLappy> unless you choose OEM or server
[12:10] <Grok_> BHSPitLappy, no i just did a default text mode install
[12:11] <Dimensions> i had attached my keyboard to my laptop and now when i remove it and even if i do xorg reconfigure stuff the kb of laptop changes back to normal but after few seconds it agains starts working like keyboard with a keypad half of the keys like 'K' key types digit number 2 ... what should i do
[12:11] <neildarlow> i want to use ubuntu-calendar for my desktop candy but it doesn't seem to have been updated since march. is there a repository that tracks it?
[12:11] <_JuDgEn_> damnit i love kde to the extent that im almost thinking of switching completley
[12:11] <cerberus> Hi, I was wondering if anyone has found a way to remove the need to unmount a usb drive before removing it. At the moment all files are cached and only transfered when the drive is unmounted.
[12:12] <rambo3> meathead does is have XFree86.conf
[12:12] <BHSPitLappy> Dimensions, uhh, are you sure you're not holding the "Fn" key, or that it isn't stuck? The Operating System doesn't decide whether that button is a K or a 2, that's a hardware thing.
[12:13] <neildarlow> cerberus: i don't know if the mount option async is safe with flash filesystems but that might do it.
[12:13] <cerberus> I'll give it a go
[12:13] <neildarlow> cerberus: i would read-up on the pros and cons first :)
[12:13] <Dimensions> BHSPitLappy: if i hold down function key then it works fine but as i release it ... keyboard of laptop works as keypad ...
[12:14] <_JuDgEn_> Dimensions: its not numlock?
[12:14] <chrissturm> hey guys, is there documentation how to enable xgl and compiz after installing the packages in edgy?
[12:15] <BHSPitLappy> Dimensions, then there's something screwy going on with your keyboard. _JuDgEn_, numlock doesn't do that
[12:15] <Dimensions> nopes its not numlock
[12:15] <rambo3> Dimensions, i bet you pressed some lock key
[12:15] <rambo3> i have 3 of those on my laptop
[12:15] <Warbo> !info inkscape
[12:15] <ubotu> inkscape: vector-based drawing program. In component main, is optional. Version 0.43-4ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 7201 kB, installed size 28184 kB
[12:15] <Dimensions> i had just plugged my keyboard with laptop and since then when even i remove and reconfigure it still it changes back this way
[12:15] <_JuDgEn_> BHSPitLappy: on my keyb it does, enabling numlock puts 2 at K, 3 at L, 6 at O and so on
[12:16] <Dimensions> lol guys guess what its working fine now ... i just held Fn key and then pressed NumLk and it worked for me
[12:16] <Dimensions> ;)
[12:16] <BHSPitLappy> _JuDgEn_, oh, well that's weird.
[12:17] <_JuDgEn_> Dimensions: told you so =))
[12:17] <BHSPitLappy> Fn + NumLock is ScrollLock, over here
[12:17] <_JuDgEn_> BHSPitLappy: not really i have a FN keyb myself
[12:17] <Dimensions> which means if incase even xorg configuration doesn't work then one should use both of these keys together ...
[12:17] <_JuDgEn_> and no numpad
[12:18] <BHSPitLappy> _JuDgEn_, I'm just on a laptop.

[12:18] <_JuDgEn_> when a laptop with enough cores comes ill buy one
[12:19] <neildarlow> iskywalker1: you probably need to share it using samba
[12:19] <iskywalker1> yes probably, but how can i do that?

[12:20] <neildarlow> iskywalker1: setting-up samba printer shares is beyond the scope of one line replies

[12:21] <iskywalker1> neildarlow: if you can point me out, to a place where it is detailed explained not ;)
[12:21] <Hoxzer> whyu doesn't ubuntu have alsa_oss emulation by default?
[12:21] <Trephine> 4 hours of searching and nothing
[12:21] <Warbo> Dimensions: It shounds like you need to add a rule to udev, since that looks after /dev. I am not really sure how to do it though
[12:22] <xopher> whats the name of that text based system info app thats located on your desktop?

[12:22] <Warbo> Dimensions: What I do know is that it should be relatively simple to make that node every time the system starts up, but it would be pretty darn hard to make it "properly" (in other words, only appear when the device is connected/accessible)
[12:23] <Warbo> xopher: gkrellm?
[12:23] <igcek> what are minimum requirements for ubuntu 6.06 server edition?
[12:23] <xopher> Warbo, isnt that graphical?
[12:23] <iskywalker1> neildarlow: i want to print from windows, not use the windows as server
[12:23] <Trephine> icgek: I have it running on a 1999 iMac with 233 mHz processor
[12:24] <Warbo> xopher: Yes, but it uses text and you said "on your desktop", so I assumed you meant a graphical app which displays text
[12:24] <igcek> how  much space?
[12:24] <Trephine> 4gb
[12:24] <Trephine> hd total
[12:24] <neildarlow> iskywalker1: then maybe http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=246191
[12:24] <igcek> for ubuntu?
[12:24] <xopher> Warbo, well I meant just text  I used it on my old debian setup but cant remember the name of it
[12:25] <Trephine> Yes
[12:25] <Trephine> I originally thought I had to run Xubuntu on it because of the age
[12:25] <Trephine> wb Hobbsee
[12:25] <LookTJ> trephine he didnt ask how much space your hd is
[12:25] <igcek> how much ram
[12:25] <Warbo> xopher: Erm, I am thinking that the only way of using a text-based app "on yur desktop" would be to have a terminal open all of the time
[12:25] <Trephine> o158mb
[12:25] <LookTJ> he asked how much ubuntu takes up
[12:26] <iskywalker1> neildarlow: i would like to make it free for all users in the "local network"
[12:26] <Trephine> Apparently. When it had OS 8 on it it said it had 54mb
[12:26] <xopher> Warbo, well theres this app too ;) And it doesnt run in terminal
[12:26] <neildarlow> iskywalker1: that last reference has links to configuring samba for what you want to do.
[12:26] <Warbo> Trephine: Probably to do with 1000 vs. 1024 :)
[12:27] <Trephine> The alternate install cd is great if you think you don't have enough ram
[12:27] <igcek> and your configurations are enough for it to be a server
[12:27] <Trephine> Warbo: I have no idea what that means =)
[12:27] <munch> i just installed xubuntu alternate
[12:27] <Lynoure> Trephine: could be a matter of not starting the power management processes...
[12:27] <Dimensions> Warbo: it doesn't bother me to create it every time but i want it to be permanently there as i want it for my client pcs which i access remotely ... they will be dialing every day on time ... so i can't make it every day for them as they are more than one at different locations around the world ...
[12:27] <Trephine> I am very new to this, but getting it slowly
[12:27] <xopher> Warbo, ah, torsmo was the name. http://torsmo.sourceforge.net/shot4.png
[12:28] <rambo3> byte vs bgyte
[12:28] <munch> i'm just wondering why my firewire drive isnt picking up now
[12:28] <buz> is anyone using nvidia twinview here?
[12:28] <Trephine> Lynoure: you mean the hibernate problem?
[12:28] <Lynoure> Trephine: yes
[12:28] <Warbo> Trephine: Nevermind. Just that some things say 1kB=1000B, some say 1kB=1024B. That only makes tiny changes though, nothing like 158MB-54MB :)
[12:28] <mtholdenss> i cant get out of hibernation on ubuntu
[12:29] <Trephine> Oh I am stuck in mb lol
[12:29] <TLE> !tell buz about anyone
[12:29] <Trephine> Lynoure: I will see if I can find out how to access that, thank you
[12:29] <munch> anyone know what the firewire modules are called?
[12:29] <buz> poooint
[12:30] <buz> so my twinview stopped working all of sudden (no changes to xorg.conf)
[12:30] <buz> whats happening? xorg.log still says its active
[12:30] <buz> and both screens get detected
[12:31] <Lynoure> Trephine: I can try to help you further once I have had some food
[12:31] <Trephine> Take your time, thank you very much =)

[12:33] <gansinho> hi guys!
[12:33] <manopulus> highvoltage, can i assign to some user root privelegies, or user must alsways do sudo ?
[12:33] <T`> hey... anyone here familiar with pppoe ?
[12:33] <gansinho> could someone tell me where I can change the default music player?
[12:33] <T`> trying to set it up here but keep getting authentication failure for some reason
[12:33] <T`> gansinho, /etc/mailcap
[12:34] <gansinho> tahnks a lot!
[12:35] <T`> manopulus, sudo is what you describe
[12:37] <Lynoure> Trephine: some people use sysv-rc-conf for it, but you can also do it manually. Have you fiddled with starting/stopping of processes for a runlevel before? The process in question could be acpid and possibly acpi-support
[12:37] <er_mejor> olas
[12:38] <Nookie^> is there anything for like qtdesign but for gtk... except glade?
[12:38] <purfier> Can anyone tell me how to set default sound card? System->Prefs->sound does not work:/
[12:39] <ketsugi> Is it possible to use DosBox or FreeDOS to run Windows 95?
[12:39] <Nookie^> sorry typos: question? is there anything like qtdesigner but for gtk.. except glade?
[12:39] <lupine_85> ketsugi: real-mode only IIRC
[12:39] <ketsugi> Hm
[12:39] <lupine_85> look at QEMU instead
[12:39] <hondje> Didn't freeDOS hit 1.0 the other day?
[12:39] <ketsugi> yeah I'm using Qemu with WinXP now
[12:39] <Trephine> Lynoure: No I have not
[12:39] <ketsugi> but it's really quite slow cos my system is old
[12:40] <Trephine> Sorry was searching still
[12:40] <Trephine> You ate fast
[12:40] <firippu> you might look at vmware-server, its free and instead of emulating a 386 processor with software, it passes off instructions to your host machine's cpu
[12:41] <Lynoure> Trephine: not yet... I'm just having foodboredom
[12:41] <Trephine> Haha
[12:41] <meathead> orbin: you still here?
[12:41] <firippu> not sure about running games on it though, it only provides an emulated svga II instead of access to your host machine's video card
[12:42] <T`> i'm trying to set up internet with pppoe here but keep getting PAP authentication failure for some reason
[12:42] <T`> anyone know much about this ppp config?
[12:42] <Trephine> Lynoure: I was told that it might be a bios thing. Is that possible?
[12:43] <Trephine> It doesn't make much sense to me, but I am not familiar with any bios except in Windows
[12:43] <meathead> anyone know how to manually update the locatedb?
[12:43] <ablyss> sudo updatedb
[12:44] <TLE> is there any text-to-speech software for Ubuntu that uses ALSA, and perhaps are easylier configurabel than festival ?
[12:44] <opexoc> What should I do If I execute System->ADministration->Languages and there is written that the packages base is corrupted?
[12:45] <Lynoure> Trephine: I guess it could, but then I'd expect it to restart or shutdown instead of hibernation, but I can be wrong
[12:46] <nalpha> guys why i can't open my .mov file with VLC, Xine player, and movie player? if i run .mov the application open for awhile and after that it's close self
[12:46] <opexoc> nalpha: maybe this file is corrupted.
[12:47] <Trephine> I seem to have an unusual setup for a server. Really, it is mostly to learn
[12:47] <hondje> nalpha: I would wonder codecs and terminal messages
[12:47] <ablyss> nalpha, perhaps multiple instances of a oen of those programs is running in the background and therefore is causing a media lock
[12:48] <Lynoure> Trephine: if you have an entry for power management in bios, you could turn it off there too, easier
[12:48] <hondje> like, 1) got the codecs needed? 2) what does xine (for example) say when you run it from a terminal and get all those friendly messages?
[12:48] <Trephine> I am searching for a way to access bios
[12:48] <Trephine> This iMac seems to not follow all of the normal rules
[12:48] <opexoc> Do you ever guys install package called "tzdata", the libc6 depends on it.
[12:50] <Lynoure> opexoc: does not here..  perhaps timezones?
[12:50] <nalpha> mmm... i just run my ubuntu... and i guess i'm already install many of codecs...
[12:51] <nalpha> anyone know what player that can directly run my .mov file?
[12:51] <nalpha> without install separate codecs?
[12:51] <ablyss> nalpha mplayer i think
[12:52] <ablyss> xfmedia maybe
[12:52] <Trephine> WEll, I can't seem to find out how to access bios anywhere.
[12:53] <FirstStrike> heh, it depends on your bios
[12:53] <FirstStrike> just start spamming all your F keys when your computer starts booting up
[12:53] <Trephine> iMac OLD as dirt
[12:53] <FirstStrike> ah ;p
[12:54] <Trephine> Yeah I miss ctrl alt del lol
[12:54] <opexoc> Lynoure: What does it mean "does not here"? I downloaded  tzdata_2006k-1_all.deb package but I can't install it because there is writing that "attempt to overwrite /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab", which exists also in locales packages. Thats why I can't install it.
[12:55] <opexoc> Lynoure: i really wonder what can i do.
[12:56] <rambo3> !info tzdata
[12:56] <ubotu> Package tzdata does not exist in any distro I know
[12:56] <tim_shel> hello?
[12:56] <trygg> Can i somehow choose which xorg.conf startx should use?
[12:57] <rambo3> ubotu lies
[12:57] <opexoc> but it is required by libc6
[12:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lies - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:57] <opexoc> and thats why i can't isntall libc6
[12:57] <Lynoure> opexoc: I do not see it depending on tzdata, but tz is prolly timezones
[12:57] <BeBraw> hi. i have a LAN and a printer connected to one of the ubuntu computers. one of the computers in network has win xp. how should i share the printer to other computers?
[12:57] <rambo3> apt-cache policy  tzdata
[12:57] <rambo3> tzdata:   Installerad: 2006g-2ubuntu1   Kandidat: 2006g-2ubuntu1
[12:58] <infidel> anyone use lxdoom i don't get any sound any ideals?
[12:58] <Lynoure> opexoc: Are you on dapper or edgy?
[12:58] <ajax4> !compiz
[12:58] <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

[12:59] <firippu> BeBraw: it sounds like you want to be using a combination of samba and cups to get the job done.
[12:59] <Dimensions> why i dont have ttyACM0 node in /dev ?
[12:59] <opexoc> Lynoure: dapper
[01:00] <BeBraw> firippu: alright. i found this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu . is it applicable to dapper?
[01:01] <firippu> BeBraw I feel that https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP  may contain your answer, but I have not actually shared a printer myself
[01:01] <Lynoure> opexoc: I do not know what to do for you, the libc6 I get: Depends: locales (>= 2.3.11)   and that's all
[01:01] <BeBraw> thanks for help. i will try this one out
[01:01] <firippu> Samba may not be necessary
[01:01] <firippu> you're welcome.  send a pm if it works, i'd be interested to know
[01:01] <opexoc> Lynoure: give me a second I want to find this site which show this dependencies
[01:02] <Dimensions> BeBraw:  what do you want from the printer ? is it a shared printer on LAN ? is it MS Os installed printer ?
[01:02] <Lynoure> opexoc: if it is a site, make sure it is for dapper...
[01:02] <bill__> bonjour
[01:02] <BeBraw> Dimensions: the printer is plugged in one of the dapper computers
[01:03] <Lynoure> tzdata (2006g-2ubuntu1) is for edgy
[01:04] <opexoc> so if some package is for edgy for example can not it be install on dapper for example?
[01:04] <BioNik> Hello. How to disable ipv6?
[01:04] <Dimensions> BeBraw:  and you are using ?
[01:05] <Lynoure> opexoc: not without a major risk of messing up your system
[01:05] <BeBraw> Dimensions: ubuntu
[01:05] <Trephine> Lynoure: I am dead tired and cross-eyed at this point. I will come back tomorrow whether or not I nead help. Thank you so much. =) Bye Hobbsee!
[01:05] <Dimensions> i have recently installed a LAN printer in ubuntu the printer was on MS OS ... so in ubuntu it shouldn't be problem
[01:05] <Trephine> need*
[01:05] <Hobbsee> bye Trephine!
[01:06] <Lynoure> opexoc: you can go all the way to edgy safer than that (edgy support is on #ubuntu+1 I think)
[01:06] <Lynoure> Trephine: sleep well
[01:06] <Trephine> Thanks, night all
[01:07] <Boll> I am experiencing missing icons in xfvm-settings-show as well as the Terminal preferences. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this?
[01:07] <usuario> yo
[01:08] <martyn> has anyone had problems running shell scripts on Edgy?
[01:08] <martyn> if I run sh -x ienv, I get:
[01:08] <martyn> + function kill_tools
[01:08] <martyn> /home/martyn/bin/ienv: 1: function: not found
[01:08] <martyn> if I remove the function keyword it works fine
[01:09] <martyn> but the bash man pages say it is valid to use "function"
[01:09] <martyn> any ideas?
[01:12] <ubuntu> hi guy just lean how to use linux
[01:13] <ubuntu> i love it it great
[01:13] <kutan> Alright uhhh I heard from someone that you can create your own syntax highlights on gedit, how might I go about that?
[01:13] <ubuntu> yu guys like music?
[01:13] <opexoc> What should I do if now I enter synaptic and there appears some libc6* pakckages which are broken, and if I want uninstall them then synaptic writes that i should uninstall many other packages... and i don't want to do that? What should I do?
[01:15] <Dimensions> BeBraw:  did u manage to use ur printer yet ?
[01:15] <ubuntu> i pretty good with windows.But just at linux
[01:15] <ubuntu> new
[01:15] <BeBraw> Dimensions: i did according to the guide but i cannot connect to the printer from other computer. i can see it in Printers though
[01:15] <Lynoure> opexoc: Good luck...
[01:15] <rambo3> ubuntu,  /j #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:17] <kutan> Anyone prepared to answer a random question? :P
[01:17] <opexoc> Lynoure: Does it mean that I am in some trouble?
[01:17] <orbin> kutan: can i give you a random answer?
[01:17] <kutan> Maybe
[01:17] <opexoc> Lynoure: What does i mean if some packages are broken?
[01:18] <kutan> I heard from someone that you can create your own syntax highlights on gedit, how might I go about that?
[01:18] <Jack_Sparrow> It means you are trying to get things outside the normal repos.. :)
[01:18] <Lynoure> opexoc: if you installed edgy stuff, you need luck or backups to go back
[01:19] <Dimensions> BeBraw:  when you plug network cable in other pc ( client) go to System Administration Printing ... New printer .... on step one select network printer Unix printer ...
[01:19] <Dimensions> is it HP or which one is it ?
[01:19] <BeBraw> Dimensions: just a cheapo samsung
[01:19] <Dimensions> do you have drivers installed for it ?
[01:20] <BeBraw> Dimensions: i use drivers provided by ubuntu
[01:20] <robokop> i can't acces my fat partitions as normal user
[01:20] <opexoc> Jack_Sparrow: Yes... bacause I can't install them thanks to apt-get and repos which are in /etc/apt/sources.list so I went searching some debian packages or other source packages...
[01:20] <NineTeen67Comet> Hi all .. Does anyone know where I can start looking to see why this box won't shutdown or restart? .. it hangs at "Will Reboot Now" .. Normally it simply, reboots or shuts down ..
[01:20] <Jack_Sparrow> opexoc: What are you trying to install
[01:20] <Dimensions> BeBraw: give Host Name of computer on which printer is connected and after you are done with the wizard try test page
[01:21] <Dimensions> i am able to print Pdf format and from webs but not from word documents etc
[01:21] <Dimensions> Jack_Sparrow:  how can i add node for ttyACM0 permanently ?
[01:22] <robokop> i can't acces my fat partitions as normal user, could sb help me fix it
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> NO idea, maybe after my first cup of coffee which is brewing now
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: WHould you want them mounted and available on the desktop every boot?
[01:22] <Dimensions> lol Jack_Sparrow
[01:22] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[01:22] <Jack_Sparrow> One sec
[01:22] <pip> where is the file in which there defines $PATH ?
[01:22] <Genscher> ok, back again :) firefox now works :)
[01:23] <rambo3> NineTeen67Comet chexk your dmesg
[01:23] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: Diskmounter Script   http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/diskmounter  for mounting NTFS, Fat32 and NFS Drives Most people need to restart X before the Drive Icons show on the desktop  .. after saving the page to your desktop use terminal and type cd /home/your_username_here/Desktop
[01:23] <Dimensions> pip .xinitrc ?
[01:23] <opexoc> Jack_Sparrow: I have bought multifunction printer HP Photosmart C4180 and I found out that i should have installed package hplip... but it appeared that i have some other version than that which is in sourceforge.net and that's why maybe I can't install my printer... so I downloaded it and I am trying second day install this hplip package.
[01:23] <pip> Dimensions, where is it ?
[01:23] <Jack_Sparrow> opexoc: It is in the repos.  I thought
[01:24] <Jack_Sparrow> !hplip
[01:24] <ubotu> hplip: HP Linux Printing and Imaging System (HPLIP). In component main, is optional. Version 0.9.7-4ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 450 kB, installed size 1980 kB

[01:24] <Dimensions> pip:  u can create it with vi .xinitrc
[01:24] <Genscher> i did package-update and downlaoded it on the laptop. during package install, the batterie went low and ubuntu did shutdown itself ("doing halt"). after i startet the laptop again, i can login, but then only the mouse appears and it seems that nothing happens (no jungle and no loading screen). sometimes it sounds like the HD is doing something...
[01:24] <Genscher> can anyone help me? :)
[01:25] <opexoc> Jack_Sparrow: I have installed this model on my system... but in sourceforge I found some 0.1.6 version...
[01:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !best
[01:25] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[01:25] <Genscher> jungle=jingle
[01:25] <hondje> opexoc: Can you define 'not working'
[01:25] <pawitp> Can any one help me with aiglx and compiz? It complained GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap is missing but glxinfo said it isn't
[01:25] <pawitp> Using mesa dri
[01:25] <rambo3> Genscher, login single mode and typ apt-get -f install
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> opexoc: Please dont get hung up on version numbers...  Try what is in the repos first, ask questions here if it dosent work
[01:26] <Genscher> how can i load the single mode?
[01:26] <Genscher> on the login-screen?
[01:26] <kutan> So can anyone answer my question about gedit?
[01:26] <hondje> What's single mode, Genscher ?
[01:26] <rambo3> !1
[01:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> pawitp: did that error show up trying to play a game in wire or ?
[01:27] <rambo3> Genscher, its recovery mode from grub
[01:27] <Jack_Sparrow> kutan: NO idea have never tried
[01:27] <kutan> oh
[01:27] <rambo3> or you could try killing x from where you are with ctrl+alt+del
[01:27] <opexoc> Dimension: hpjis? you uninstalled the phlip package? hpjis is osme package of course?
[01:27] <rambo3> or you could try killing x from where you are with ctrl+alt+ backspace
[01:28] <opexoc> hondje: for example if I execute lsusb I don't see printer.
[01:28] <hondje> opexoc: Oh, then that's not the problem I had to fix with my all-in-one :-(
[01:28] <hondje> Does /var/log/messages say anything when you plug it in / out
[01:29] <NineTeen67Comet> rambo3: what'd I need to check dmesg for it it's a shutdown/reboot issue? .. the hardware seems to be running excellently .. (that really shouldn't be a word) ..
[01:30] <hondje> kutan: I don't see anything on their site in the dev documents
[01:30] <Genscher> rambo3: ok...logged on and he said i should enter dpkg --configure -a
[01:30] <hondje> But, they have an IRC chan on the gnome network
[01:30] <rambo3> Genscher, the run it
[01:31] <Genscher> rambo3: i did it. it's finishing the update, thank you!
[01:31] <Genscher> :)
[01:31] <hondje> http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gedit-list/ maybe play around there :)
[01:32] <kutan> Ah okay
[01:32] <Genscher> 170 packages to update...
[01:32] <Genscher> and that using trhe live dvd
[01:32] <hondje> Wow, I'm surprised how poorly documented gedit is
[01:33] <NineTeen67Comet> Genscher: that's pretty normal for a new install .. 6.06 has been out for a while now, lots of time for updates ..
[01:33] <kutan> Hmmm well does anyone know of a text editor that DOES support creation of custom syntax highlights?
[01:33] <Genscher> :)
[01:33] <hondje> vim
[01:33] <azathoth> any python coders in here?
[01:34] <Genscher> the secret lib for totem is decss, right?
[01:34] <Healot> to think of update, i haven't do that on my own PC
[01:34] <Dimensions> opexoc: i didn't uninstall any thing but just installed sudo apt-get install hpijs
[01:34] <Genscher> how can i restart from commandline? (halt is shutting it down)
[01:35] <azathoth> sudo reboot
[01:35] <rambo3> Genscher, : reboot
[01:35] <Genscher> ah thank you :)
[01:35] <hondje> there's a reboot?
[01:35] <NineTeen67Comet> Genscher: you can also use # shutdown -r now
[01:35] <Genscher> i didn't know either
[01:35] <Genscher> :)
[01:35] <NineTeen67Comet> both work ..
[01:35] <Jack_Sparrow> hondje:  http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gedit-list/2003-April/msg00003.html   IS this what you want to do?
[01:35] <Genscher> yeahhhh, ubuntu starts again
[01:35] <Genscher> :)
[01:36] <Genscher> rambo3: thanks to you
[01:36] <Genscher> :)
[01:36] <hondje> Jack_Sparrow: I don't believe I want to do anything, I think that was kutan :)

[01:36] <hondje> oh look, reboot is a symlink to halt :)
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> hondje: My bad... lemme get back to my coffee
[01:36] <hondje> By all means, good sir
[01:36] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[01:36] <earthian> some apt-get sources of ubuntu are showing me errors
[01:36] <rambo3> !java > helloyo
[01:36] <kutan> Ah, thanks Jack
[01:36] <Abst> Whats the key to switch to a fullscreen console?
[01:36] <earthian> i am debootstraping
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> kutan: that is an old link but it may lead you to what you want
[01:37] <earthian> anybody interested?
[01:37] <helloyo> rambo3: thanks, but i have the jre installed (i dont think from the repos though)
[01:37] <hondje> kutan: I did a locate gedit and I'm digging in the output, take al ook in /usr/share/gedit-2/plugins/snippets
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian: What errors, and have you changed sources.
[01:37] <kutan> ah, thanks.
[01:37] <earthian> i have copied sources.list from my livecd
[01:38] <earthian> to /target/etc...
[01:38] <pip> I need help
[01:38] <rambo3> helloyo, you need plugin i would think not jre package read on wiki about it and update alternatives for java
[01:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !easysource > earthian:
[01:38] <earthian> and when i chroot i get unkown errors in a few locations

[01:39] <hondje> kutan: Those xml files are hard to read, but look like they might make the rules....but I can't tell which plugin does the voodoo and the docs are crap :(
[01:39] <opexoc_> but I can't now install even hplip... I have to remove many packages...
[01:39] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian: I dont know why you copied your sources manually.. but source-o-matic can set those right
[01:39] <opexoc_> hplip from repos...
[01:40] <earthian> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22606
[01:40] <opexoc_> What should I do? Should I reinstall whole system?
[01:40] <earthian> well thing is that everything is right
[01:40] <kutan> Oh well, I can try and figure it out hondje, thanks for the help though. :P
[01:40] <hondje> I'm not sure when I say this, opexoc, but even if the right drivers weren't loaded, there should be 'something' in messages or dmesg
[01:40] <earthian> just when i chroot the same sources somehow stop functioning :S
[01:40] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian:  Mind pasting your sources list   gksudo gedit  /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:40] <hondje> kutan: No problem :) Just out of curiousity, what syntax hilighting were you fishing for?
[01:41] <opexoc_> hondje: so I tell you that in messages 'something' is.
[01:41] <rambo3> !gpgkey
[01:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gpgkey - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:41] <kutan> It's for a little sand game that supports custom elements. :P
[01:41] <helloyo> what symlink will get firefox to recognize java?
[01:41] <hondje> opexoc: Okay, just making sure
[01:41] <kutan> I just felt like creating highlights to make it easier on myself.
[01:42] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: i used that script you gave me, and for 2 out of 3 partitions it worked, but the tirth i don't have write permision for
[01:42] <hondje> yeah, I follow
[01:42] <hondje> vim is fairly easy to make custom highlights for...but I'm also super biased
[01:42] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: is the third ntfs?
[01:42] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: no all fat
[01:42] <pip> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22607
[01:42] <opexoc_> hondje: but what should I do now if i can;t reinstall my hplip and my libc6 packagaes are broken?
[01:42] <pip> please have a look
[01:42] <hondje> Which reminds me, it's retarded syntax highlighting isn't on by default for vim :(
[01:42] <kutan> lol I'll try vim then, at least I won't have to read through an XML to just figure out how it works.
[01:43] <kutan> bah
[01:43] <kutan> nevermind
[01:43] <hondje> opexoc: Well, I'm no guru...but when libc6 is borked, you're pretty much screwed :-/
[01:43] <hondje> kutan: Not a biggie... just :syntax on
[01:43] <pip> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22607,please help
[01:43] <kutan> ... oh

[01:44] <opexoc_> hondje: Can I back up my system to work like before?
[01:44] <hondje> opexoc: Yeah, it sucks :( How did you hose libc?
[01:44] <hondje> Depends on what you did and how much it's worth to you
[01:44] <Dromen_> can anyone help with it??

[01:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Dromen_: Please use pastebin and do not paste in channel
[01:44] <Dromen_> ok
[01:44] <Dromen_> sorry
[01:45] <helloyo> could someone let me know what symlink i need for java in firefox?
[01:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Dromen_: And please try to not use the enter key for punctuation, one line is fine
[01:45] <Dromen_> ok sorry
[01:45] <earthian> ...i know that the sourcelist there is correct...
[01:45] <earthian> it must smth else :S

[01:45] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: what info you need

[01:45] <kutan> Ah, thanks a bunch... again hondje. :P
[01:46] <earthian> another thing is that when i try to install anything i get dependency errors

[01:46] <hondje> no problem, I like to be helpful to one person per 2 that I talk into doing something dumb like setting up a font server :)

[01:48] <rambo3> http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[01:48] <hondje> opexoc_: I see. Well, first I would probably reinstall just because libc6 is kinda important and something 'went wrong' to break it pretty badly
[01:48] <hondje> opexoc_: Then I would do as suggested before and use the available hplip package, which you can install via synaptic or 'apt-get install hplip'
[01:49] <hondje> Oddly, it didn't work until after I rebooted, which makes NO sense...but that's the only problem I had with my all-in-one
[01:49] <opexoc_> hondje: ok but someone else told something about some other pacakge hpjin or something? is it neccesary?
[01:50] <hondje> opexoc_: I would google to make sure hplip is the driver you want...but for most all-in-ones it is
[01:50] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian: The first difference I see between your source list and mine is line 2 and 3 I have us. before archive...
[01:50] <hondje> at least HP all-in-ones
[01:50] <opexoc_> hondje: hmm... do you use some all-in-ones ?
[01:50] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: HAve you run scandisk on that partition from windows?
[01:51] <k31th> Uhh guys you eve needed to set a squirrelmail users email  address different from the defult e.g username@domain.com to firstname.lastname@domain.com ?? (i have this working fine for incoming mail just outgoing). I know there is an option to do this within squirrelmail however what im after i guess is a way of mapping usernames to a email address ?
[01:51] <hondje> opexoc_: http://www.linuxprinting.org/ has a reliable list
[01:51] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: Is that third fat on a different drive?  Are you running both sata and ide drives

[01:56] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: It is a quick and easy solution .. You did create it from there right?
[01:56] <hondje> You want to apt-get install hpijs instead of hplip...and it's said to work' perfectly'
[01:57] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: no it is a partition which is created by my manufacturer
[01:57] <earthian> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22612 <-- what causes these errors and how could i fix them? maybe i could increase the number of retries or chack filesystem??
[01:57] <hondje> so, that's probably problem number one, wrong driver :) that linuxprinting.org has a really good database for printers, including user notes and the like.
[01:57] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: ah
[01:58] <earthian> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22612 <-- what causes these errors and how could i fix them? maybe i could increase the number of retries or chack filesystem??

[01:58] <dw_> is it possible to set up a custom gnome desktop (themes, screensaver, wallpaper, shortcuts, preferred applications) and even some firefox-extensions for !multiple users at once? is this possible?
[01:58] <earthian> uops
[01:58] <earthian> sorry
[01:58] <opexoc_> hondje: ok but should I uninstall hplip before?
[01:58] <hondje> dw_: Yessir
[01:58] <earthian> Jack_Sparrow: no
[01:59] <hondje> opexoc_: I don't know, but I would just out of principle
[01:59] <earthian> i have not

I haven't used Synaptic in a while, but I wanted to take a screenshot of it, but when I tried to load it it complained about "libvte". I saw I had a newer version than dapper comes with, so I downgraded it, but then I had to downgrade python-vte and gnome-terminal. I have disabled all of my repos except for the official Ubuntu ones, but the newer gnome-termin
[01:59] <dw_> hondje: good. i didn't find anything in the wiki or in the forums. do i need a special programm for this task?
[01:59] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: it isn't a backup partition, it is my main windows partition
[01:59] <hondje> dw_: Can I /msg you, it's getting hard to read in here
[01:59] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian: It is just a thought

[02:03] <Protocol1> is there options to write over free space on a windows partition when doing an ubuntu installation?
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: It still seems odd they would use fat32 for your XP install
[02:03] <Warbo> Protocol1: It doesn't write over it, it shrinks Windows, then uses the resulting free space
[02:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Protocol1: Yes the installer is set to use all unallocated space on a drive
[02:04] <Protocol1> ok cool
[02:04] <Warbo> ("free space" in a partition is not actually free space)
[02:04] <Protocol1> thanks for the information
[02:04] <Protocol1> do I need to use the install cd or live cd
[02:04] <Protocol1> ??
[02:04] <Warbo> Protocol1: They are the same CD
[02:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Protocol1: Live cd will be fine
[02:04] <Protocol1> ok cool
[02:05] <Warbo> OK, for those who couldn't be bothered to read all of my long message above: Is there a problem with libvte in Dapper's repositories? Synaptic crashed with a newer version so I had to downgrade, but it seems that the newer version was an official update

[02:12] <matgates> When the installer offers to re-size my exiting partition, does this delete what is on that partition (windows)?
[02:12] <matgates> windows is on a NTFS partition as far as I know.  Is the resize safe?
[02:12] <robokop> matgates, what kinda partition
[02:12] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: You have looked at it with gparted?
[02:13] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: i think i should install gparted then :P
[02:13] <matgates> I have a copy of the gparted liveCD.  Would it be better to use that that the ubuntu installer resize?
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> matgates: Any time you work at the partition level there are dangers and you should have a backup, but yes I consider it safe
[02:13] <asoka123> Typhon: usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_12/man/man1
[02:13] <gvafarc> hellow
[02:13] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: You should have it already
[02:13] <matgates> Jack_Sparrow: Sure.  It's a fresh machine.  I have a rescue CD.
[02:13] <Shoo-Shu> has any one used wine before?
[02:14] <matgates> Jack_Sparrow: I was just wondering if ubuntu resized NTFS.  In the past I know some installers freaked with NTFS partitions.
[02:14] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: applications/system tools
[02:14] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: no only parted, not gparted
[02:14] <hondje> Shoo-Shu: Sure, what's up?
[02:14] <Shoo-Shu> how do i install it
[02:14] <Shoo-Shu> im a girl who is missing her WoW.
[02:14] <BeepAU> to play many windows games, i need cedega right? cedega costs money? is their a free version or something which will achieve the same result?
[02:14] <hondje> matgates: It has been hit 'n miss with me
[02:14] <Shoo-Shu> and its so unhealthy
[02:14] <hondje> Shoo-Shu: You'd want Cedega then
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> matgates: Yes it does resize ntfs...

[02:15] <Typhon> asoka123: So typing "/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_12/man/man1/appletviewer something.html" works?

[02:15] <hondje> BeepAU: Yes, yes, CVS mostly works the same, but it's more work.
[02:15] <Shoo-Shu> will sims work on cedega?
[02:15] <fyrestrtr> Shoo-Shu: instructions are at http://appdb.winehq.org -- search for WoW, then click on Dapper
[02:15] <matgates> Jack_Sparrow: OK, thanks.
[02:15] <earthian> my poblems seems that are because of errors in filesystem :/

[02:15] <hondje> Shoo-Shu: I don't know, yu'd have to look at Transgaming's website...but IIRC there's an actual Sims port to linux for purchase :-/
[02:15] <BeepAU> hondje -- it works mostly the same?
[02:15] <hondje> BeepAU: I've had good luck with it
[02:15] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: no it wasn't installed, bu now it is
[02:15] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian: sorry you have errors but glad you found the prob
[02:16] <Shoo-Shu> o ok
[02:16] <Shoo-Shu> money *sigh*
[02:16] <Shoo-Shu> lol
[02:16] <BeepAU> hondje -- do you know a good guide to get me started?
[02:16] <asoka123> Typhon: it says command not found
[02:16] <hondje> I can play CS:S and HL2 fine, though a bit slower ... and Diablo 2 works perfectly, but not even Civilization 2 works ... so, it's iffy :)
[02:16] <hondje> BeepAU: No, when I used cedega I paid them money and used dpkg, sorry
[02:16] <Typhon> asoka123: try "/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_12/bin/appletviewer something.html" :)
[02:17] <earthian> i just hope that my important data in /home/ will survive this :S
[02:17] <BeepAU> hondje -- that's alright. thanks for your help.
[02:17] <hondje> BeepAU: No problem. It's not too pricey...$15 for 3 months when I last used it, and they were pretty good at handling bug reports
[02:17] <moldy> Sep  5 14:15:12 willi dnsmasq[10889] : DHCPNAK(eth0) 169.254.0.31 00:0f:b0:bd:bd:
[02:17] <moldy> 51 wrong network
[02:18] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: nothing seems wrong with is
[02:18] <robokop> *it
[02:18] <moldy> and after that, dnsmasq just dies! why is that?
[02:18] <J_P> hi all
[02:18] <hondje> I'm sure if you google around you can find a script to automagically set it up from CVS
[02:18] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: please pastebin your fstab
[02:18] <BeepAU> hondje -- i'm a linux n00b. i'll try, though.
[02:18] <asoka123> Typhon: it says no such file or directory even I have appletviewer.1 there
[02:18] <J_P> people, next stable version of ubuntu is 6.10 or 6.12 ?
[02:19] <azathoth> 6.10
[02:19] <hondje> :-) I'd check the ubuntu forums or wait for someone here to give you a link hehe
[02:19] <J_P> azathoth: but last version was 6.06 right. So if is each six months, so next will be 6.12 right ?
[02:19] <fyrestrtr> J_P: next one is 6.10
[02:19] <Typhon> asoka123: no such file or directory probably means you don't have a <something.html> :)
[02:20] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22614
[02:20] <fyrestrtr> !schedule > J_P
[02:20] <azathoth> J_P: no, it's 6.10, dapper just got two months extra time...
[02:20] <azathoth> it was supposed to be 6.04 but got delayed... edgy is still on october schedule tho
[02:21] <Protocol1> Im getting a cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused when I try to do an install and ideas?
[02:22] <Protocol1> I selected the install or start option
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: so diskmounter set it up fine.
[02:22] <kairu0> azathoth, as in next month?
[02:22] <azathoth> as in next month, yes
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: And you cant write to it?
[02:22] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[02:22] <azathoth> around the same time the new gnome is released
[02:23] <EmxBA> hi
[02:23] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: What error again, or just a permissions problem?
[02:23] <EmxBA> yesterday i upgraded everything (dist-upgrade) and compiz doesn't work, there are no window borders
[02:23] <robokop> seems like just a permission problem
[02:23] <EmxBA> what could be the problem?
[02:23] <azathoth> EmxBA: try asking in #ubuntu+1
[02:24] <EmxBA> azathoth: ok
[02:24] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: but chmod doesn't work for it
[02:24] <ucordes> xgl updates: you can only start xgl with "compiz-start" .  any old frontends won't work after latest updates
[02:24] <fyrestrtr> EmxBA: xgl questions belong in #ubuntu-xgl or #xgl
[02:24] <Protocol1> Im getting a cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused when I try to do an install and ideas?
[02:25] <ucordes> EmxBA read what i said
[02:25] <EmxBA> ucordes :just a sec
[02:25] <_FR0D0> hi, I have a problem with remote printing with cups, using a dapper server and any client but dapper everithing works, but with a dapper client all I get when printing is '$$' ... any idea?
[02:25] <ucordes> you need to start it with start-compiz
[02:25] <EmxBA> script or?
[02:25] <ucordes> you can type it into your session settings
[02:25] <fyrestrtr> ucordes: take it to #ubuntu-xgl please
[02:25] <NewpZ> hi i installed the nvidia drivers and anything vido relatd is real slow... glxgars is sow also.. is there something i can do?
[02:26] <ucordes> or manually start it by typing start-compiz into a terminal
[02:26] <ucordes> fyrestrtr: just wanted to help those who didn't look into #ubuntu-xgl
[02:27] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: are you sure you are using the drivers? glxinfo | grep direct -- you should see 'Yes'
[02:27] <Typhon> Protocol1: You don't happen to have a Core 2 Duo do you?
[02:27] <EmxBA> ucordes: start-compiz doesn't exist :) and on #ubuntu-xgl everybody is quiet...
[02:27] <robokop> Jack_Sparrow: don't know what happend, but it works now :P
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: Sorry to say I am at a loss on this, fstab is ok, diskmounter didnt have a problem with it... I can only suspect the mfg did something with the partition table.  I also dont know why they would have used fat32 for your xp install.  I would live to see what (Windows) fdisk tells us about that partition
[02:27] <NewpZ> eww it says no
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: Ok...
[02:27] <Protocol1> Typhon, maybe I loaded the wrong cd for the wrong proc
[02:27] <kutan> For some reason when I use make for Vim it's non-stop text.
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> robokop: Had me going there
[02:27] <NewpZ> but yet i have the svideo output enabled and working
[02:27] <jacopoexchange> does anyone know how permissions work for ext3 partitions?
[02:27] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: then you are not using the nvidia drivers :) read the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Video
[02:28] <Protocol1> I have differnent kinds....like for mac an d 64 bit
[02:28] <Protocol1> let me check
[02:28] <fyrestrtr> jacopoexchange: what do you mean 'how'?
[02:28] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: are you running xgl?
[02:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning fyrestrtr, didnt see you drop in..
[02:29] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr: i need to be able to access as non-root an ext3 partition
[02:29] <ucordes> EmxBA: i'm sorry i switched it: compiz-start. i can tell you why they quiet. because it is in the title :P
[02:29] <moldy> how do i install a specific version of a package?
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> hey Jack -- ran into some strange problems testing edgy :)
[02:29] <EmxBA> ucordes: OK
[02:29] <Jack_Sparrow> fyrestrtr: When it gets slow we can chat
[02:29] <ucordes> does it work?
[02:29] <fyrestrtr> jacopoexchange: you have a few options -- change the umask, or set it so normal users can mount it.
[02:29] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr:
[02:29] <jacopoexchange> what is the umask?
[02:30] <jacopoexchange> i mean, what value of it?
[02:30] <fyrestrtr> umask is a filter that is applied to permissions. For more information on it, read the manual page for 'mount'
[02:30] <Jack_Sparrow> jacopoexchange: You want to change access to all of the ext3?
[02:30] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr: no, just a data partition i made
[02:30] <fyrestrtr> jacopoexchange: mount it with umask=000 that should help.
[02:31] <jacopoexchange> alright, i try it
[02:31] <J_P> azathoth: so that two months that ubuntu dapper it was slow not is counted right ?
[02:31] <Protocol1> Typhon, nope its a pentium 4
[02:31] <azathoth> not really
[02:31] <sobersabre> hi, I want to use a webcam with ubuntu. is there a way to have video conference with an MSN messenger user from windows?
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> J_P: no.
[02:31] <azathoth> edgy+1 will be 7.04 again
[02:31] <fyrestrtr> sobersabre: I think amsn supports webcams.
[02:31] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, i just followd that guide again, same thing with directrendering: no
[02:32] <Protocol1> it does have HT tech
[02:32] <J_P> fyrestrtr: no what ?
[02:32] <hondje> fyrestrtr: it does
[02:32] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: are you running xgl?
[02:32] <fyrestrtr> J_P: no, it doesn't affect the release date of edgy.
[02:33] <J_P> fyrestrtr: ahh ok :-)
[02:33] <NewpZ> i think so
[02:33] <gnumdk> hello
[02:33] <NewpZ> should i not be?
[02:33] <sobersabre> fyrestrtr trying..
[02:33] <gnumdk> i've got a strange behaviour with edgy, fstab now user UUID instead of device path but i haven't /dev/hda in /dev
[02:33] <Jack_Sparrow> NewpZ: Could you post your xorg to the pastebin?
[02:34] <caro> i posted a bug about liboostthread-devel package 4 months ago, but no answer on it. It's bug #43368.
[02:34] <NewpZ> sure 1 sec
[02:34] <caro> Is there something specific to do, beside posting bugs ?
[02:34] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: well if you are running xgl, then direct rendering doesn't work.
[02:34] <fyrestrtr> gnumdk: ask in #ubuntu+1 please
[02:34] <Protocol1> Typhon, shall I try the special boot parameters?
[02:34] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr , Jack_Sparrow: i tried with umask=000, but still doesn't allow non-root to write. options are auto,rw,umask=000 right now
[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> jacopoexchange: gksudo nautilus or sudo nautilus --no-desktop/media      right click- permissions... Just a thought
[02:35] <fyrestrtr> jacopoexchange: what are the permissions on the files in that device?
[02:36] <strav> he... need some help loading compiz with gconf (error output is: compiz: Couldn't load plugin 'gconf')  ... gconf is indeed installed.
[02:36] <NewpZ> http://pastebin.ca/161426 ...  heh pastebin.com has php issues :)
[02:36] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, im not trying to run xgl, i notic when  i run xmame xgl is running
[02:37] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr, Jack_Sparrow: can't write for both "user" and "others"
[02:37] <strav> note: I have even more troubles when trying to load it with cgwd... anyone could help?
[02:38] <Linuturk> I've noticed a heavy drop in system performance on my Dapper install
[02:38] <Linuturk> for example
[02:38] <hondje> drop from what?
[02:38] <Linuturk> when the screensaver comes on, it takes up to 2 or 3 minutes for my machine to display the password dialog to get back on my system
[02:39] <Linuturk> hondje, drop from instant
[02:39] <Protocol1> Typhon, Im going to try "noapic nolapic" with the boot option
[02:39] <hondje> No, I mean from .... dropped from a fresh install, for example?
[02:39] <cafuego> Did you enable some weird opengl screensavers without having opengl?
[02:39] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, did u get my url for pastebin? i didnt add your nick in front of it, sorry
[02:39] <strav> is there a specific chan on compiz?
[02:39] <mugam> unable to load mp3 songs Music Player replied Did you run gst-register
[02:39] <FurryNemesis> strav, #compiz
[02:39] <Linuturk> hondje, I recently did a fresh install, restoring my /home directory
[02:39] <kishore> hi al
[02:39] <earthian> what does that mean in fsck: Multiply-claimed block(s) in inode 43992284: 88008583 88008584 ??
[02:40] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr, Jack_Sparrow: this morning i also tried to manyally allow write for everybody, but that would only work for first level, meaning all subfolders still would have write denied
[02:40] <strav> Linuturk: I should add: or without your card configured for glx, (opengl)
[02:40] <FurryNemesis> not any more it seems
[02:40] <hondje> Linuturk: I bet cafuego is right, if that's the only thing going weird instead of just an example
[02:40] <NewpZ> how do i stop using xgl?
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> NewpZ: Looks like you have done some work trying to get that geforce FX card to do tv out
[02:40] <ucordes> does anybody know a graphical interface to control acpi settings such ass frequency and read out thermal values?
[02:40] <FurryNemesis> try #xgl instead
[02:40] <NewpZ> Jack_Sparrow,  yeah, that wokis :)
[02:40] <NewpZ> works
[02:40] <NewpZ> after a lot of work hehe
[02:41] <Linuturk> hondje, well, it doesn't stop with the screensavers. I'm noticing a highter than usual system load (normally at 0%, now it idles around 20%) Swap file usage, even through I have a gig of ram. Slow response from the keyboard and programs
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> NewpZ: That work may also be the cause of the problem you are having...
[02:41] <NewpZ> doh!
[02:41] <Linuturk> I have in Intel chipset where the 3D acceleration is detected out of the box as well hondje
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> brb
[02:42] <hondje> Linuturk: Ah, interesting indeed :) I assume you've run top to see what's going on?
[02:42] <strav> FurryNemesis: have a clue why I cannot load gconf with compiz?
[02:42] <chuckyp> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=251273
[02:42] <NewpZ> i think fyrestrtr looked at my xorg.conf and ran away screaming :)
[02:43] <chuckyp> NewpZ: you still haveing problems with xmame
[02:43] <hondje> s/now/down
[02:43] <NewpZ> advancemame
[02:43] <NewpZ> its runningreal crappy
[02:43] <FurryNemesis> strav, I've not had that particular problem but have you tried purging it / reinstall?
[02:43] <Linuturk> hondje, the system monitor, and I don't see anything that out of the ordinary. The highest cpu usage on it is the actual system monitor
[02:43] <strav> purging gconf?
[02:44] <moldy> what do i need to install in order to be able to compile software? is there some package that will install the usual toolchain?
[02:44] <Linuturk> hondje, it is strange, and annoying. I can't figure out what is causing this for the life of me. It's getting to the point where the machine is annoying to use because I know it works faster than this
[02:44] <strav> FurryNemesis: purging gconf?
[02:44] <hondje> Linuturk: Hmmm, could your CPU be throttled back and not turning back on when it has a load?
[02:44] <FurryNemesis> yep, if you can work out how
[02:45] <Protocol1> Typhon, I think I solved it buy booting with the irqpoll option
[02:45] <Linuturk> hondje, I have that monitored as well, It does throttle, but it always ramps up when needed.
[02:45] <Protocol1> ;)
[02:45] <hondje> ah damn, that was my best idea :)
[02:45] <Linuturk> hondje, I notice a lot of harddisk access whenever it gets slow
[02:46] <Linuturk> hondje, which concerns me, because my system never used the swap file before, and now it constantly uses 3% of a gig
[02:46] <hondje> You said it's swapping out too much...is reading/writing from swap in a stupid manner (like with open applications), or just swapping out more than you'd like
[02:46] <klerfayt> download manager for firefox that allows resume later?
[02:47] <Linuturk> in a stupid manner. I have a gig of ram, and only 25% is used by programs (the rest is cache)
[02:47] <fyrestrtr> klerfayt: try freeloader
[02:47] <kishore> in ubuntu.. i dont find any difference in opening a folder in open mode and in browse mode
[02:47] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, did you get a chance to look at y xconf?
[02:47] <hondje> Linuturk: Here's a fun thought....try /sbin/swapoff and see what happens?
[02:48] <Jack_Sparrow> NewpZ: I dont see a busid in your Video Card setup.. not sure if that could be a problem..
[02:48] <dsas> kishore: in "open mode" whenever you click on a new folder it should open up in a new window
[02:48] <Linuturk> ok, I'll try that hondje. anything else I should check? any logs?
[02:49] <hondje> if you're running something silly like xgl, I'd blame it first Linuturk
[02:49] <Hoxzer> Has somebody here got alsa-oss emulation work?
[02:49] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: where is the link? I missed it.
[02:49] <jacopoexchange> does anyone know how to allow non-root to write an ext3 partition?
[02:49] <Jack_Sparrow> http://pastebin.ca/161426
[02:49] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, http://pastebin.ca/161426
[02:49] <Linuturk> hondje, no xgl, I'm not brave enough for that yet. I also stopped using gdesklets since this last install
[02:50] <hondje> Linuturk: If you're familiar with sysctl I would look around there for anything fishy
[02:50] <NewpZ>  i guess i can kill the svideo thing and do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:50] <Linuturk> not familar at all
[02:50] <NewpZ> and see if it magicly starts working
[02:50] <NewpZ> i dont think so though
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> NewpZ: MAke a backup copy first
[02:50] <NewpZ> yeah i have about 110 of those
[02:50] <NewpZ> hehe
[02:50] <kishore> dsas, hey but i dont find any difference.. every thing is going in same way
[02:51] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: turn off xgl, it will work fine. Paste the ouput of glxinfo
[02:51] <hondje> Linuturk: Performance is such a tricky thing :( I'd still look at the graphic card first :-/
[02:51] <hondje> maybej ust a bad setting
[02:51] <Linuturk> hondje, would there be anything from my old /home directory that might cause this?
[02:51] <Linuturk> any old configs?
[02:51] <dsas> kishore: browse mode should also have more toolbars (backwards, forwards, home buttons etc)
[02:51] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, how do i turn off xgl?
[02:51] <hondje> Linuturk: Not that I can think of. $HOME is pretty isolated from important things
[02:52] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: undo the changes to /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom
[02:52] <Abst> What is the command to view all files related to X?
[02:52] <hondje> Unless you have some weird Gnome thing that unearthed a bug...but logging into another DE would check that in a hurry, and it's probably not that anyway
[02:52] <kishore> dsas, every thing same.. here..
[02:52] <fyrestrtr> Abst: there is no such command, what are you trying to do?
[02:52] <SeanTater> gam_server is consuming 50% of my clock cycles and making my computer laggy. killall only makes it respawn.. What do I need to do to fix it?
[02:52] <Abst> There is
[02:52] <Abst> I've used it
[02:52] <Linuturk> hondje, so create another user and login? and see if the performance is still cripled?
[02:53] <Abst> I need to find a directory of a program I installed using apt-get
[02:53] <NewpZ> umm.. do i just coment all the xgl stuff out at the bottom?
[02:53] <NewpZ> under [servers] 
[02:53] <hondje> Linuturk: Oh, not a bad idea at all :D
[02:53] <Mortice> abst: a directory? what for? configuration? shared data? or where the program file lives?
[02:53] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: yes, then, save the file, and restart X, then login.
[02:53] <NewpZ> [servers] # Override display 1 to use Xgl ---> 0=Xgl
[02:53] <jacopoexchange> does anyone know how to allow non-root to write an ext3 partition?
[02:53] <Abst> Where the plugins are
[02:53] <hondje> oh, and maybe check to see if someone is trying to brute force sshd :D That'll cause a slowdown :(
[02:54] <fyrestrtr> Abst: dpkg -l
[02:54] <Abst> Yeah
[02:54] <Abst> Thats it
[02:54] <gnumdk> jacopoexchange: sudo?
[02:55] <jacopoexchange> gnumdk: i need non-root to always be able to write
[02:55] <fyrestrtr> jacopoexchange: chmod -R 777 /mount/ <-- one way to solve your problem
[02:56] <tuxedup> I was reding ont he ubuntu forums about the problems people were having with their laptosp overheating if they had a intel core due.  Does thios affect other processors, specifically the pentium m series?
[02:56] <hondje> unless you set up the ext3 partition to be ONLY root allowed, any user can write to it given sufficient permissions
[02:56] <gnumdk> someone know why disk device in /dev doesn't exist in edgy?
[02:56] <tryggvi> Hello, I am having some troubles installing Ubuntu (on a rather old laptop). It freezes when it starts configuring Xorg (around 60%). Any ideas how to fix it?
[02:56] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, http://pastebin.ca/161436 --->  still no directrendering
[02:56] <tryggvi> btw I'm installing from the alternative CD
[02:56] <fyrestrtr> tryggvi: how much ram do you have, and are you using the desktop cd?
[02:57] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: pastebin the contents of /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom
[02:57] <tryggvi> I don't know the ram... I should probably do a memory test, but I would guess fairly little ram since I couldn't install using a live cd
[02:57] <Jack_Sparrow> tuxedup: My lappy pentium M run cooler under linux/Ubuntu.  BUt I did give up some battery life.. 10 minutes per charge that I attribute to additional fan speed
[02:57] <zappe> can i search for wireless networks in some way?
[02:57] <fyrestrtr> tryggvi: if it freezes there, then it could be that your video card is not supported.
[02:57] <zappe> or do i just get the best?
[02:57] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr: that didn't work
[02:58] <bawer> hi
[02:58] <fyrestrtr> jacopoexchange: what do you mean it didn't work? did it change the permissions? did you run the command as sudo?
[02:58] <Mortice> zappe: "iwlist scan" and/or "apt-get install kismet"
[02:58] <tryggvi> live cd could start the X server so I believe the video card is supported
[02:58] <tuxedup> Jack_Sparrow: do you have to do anything in rehgards to setting trip point for the fan to kick in, or does the kernel handle all this its self, or do config files for acpi control this?
[02:58] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr
[02:58] <jacopoexchange> i did
[02:58] <Nilvio> hello i wanna ask can i script mouse clicking and moving and repeat it again can someone answer mee plz
[02:59] <bawer> hi
[02:59] <fyrestrtr> jacopoexchange: pastebin the output of 'mount' and the output of ls -l your mount point.
[02:59] <Jack_Sparrow> tuxedup: I just installed it, I didnt do anything special..  XP was constantly overheating the HP... not a problem since
[02:59] <zappe> Mortice: is kismet better?
[02:59] <mwe> zappe: sudo iwlist scan
[02:59] <bawer>  cant sending pw pls helping
[02:59] <Mortice> zappe: kismet does lots of stuff beyond just displaying available APs, but you may not want extra features
[02:59] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, http://pastebin.ca/161442
[03:00] <Mortice> if iwlist scan does what you want, no need to mess about with anything else :)
[03:00] <mark_> hey
[03:01] <mark_> i downloaded a deb package, and dpkg -i to install it, but it failed, i deleted the package, and later tried to apt-get and it now won't let me... how can i fix this?
[03:01] <kartik> what is the best way to configure snd_hda_intel sound card(s) in ubuntu?
[03:01] <zappe> Mortice: oh okey, is it grafic or terminal?
[03:01] <Mortice> both iwlist and kismet are text-mode
[03:02] <zappe> okey

[03:02] <zappe> thx
[03:02] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: put a # before [servers-xgl] , save the file, and restart X (ctrl+alt+backspace)
[03:02] <fyrestrtr> mark_: was the package for debian or ubuntu?
[03:03] <mark_> it was a deb package
[03:03] <fyrestrtr> mark_: so debian?
[03:03] <mark_> its jedit, i've installed it on other ubuntu machines fine
[03:03] <fyrestrtr> mark_: how did you delete it?
[03:03] <mark_> i downloaded it (wget -c "rarrar")
[03:03] <mark_> and then rm rarrar
[03:03] <Hoxzer> aargh has somebody here got ts2 work with software mixing. It is pissing me off...
[03:03] <akonkwa> I was watching videos on youtube, with mozilla, and suddenly now, no sound. I try xmms and I get sound, but not in any flash videos in mozilla. Problem is , it worked fine a few minutes ago. Any help?
[03:04] <mark_> i've tried downloading it again but the same error ocurs
[03:04] <Tenshi> what's with all of the pdiff files that I've been getting recently in the apt-get update?
[03:04] <fyrestrtr> mark_: you should have removed it using apt-get, just deleting the deb file doesn't delete the package, or remove it from the installed packages list.
[03:04] <Tenshi> it's almost looking like ubuntu now
[03:04] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22616
[03:04] <mark_> i didn't apt-get it..., but i've tried apt-get clean and apt-get remove, and neither worked.
[03:05] <jacopoexchange> fyrestrtr: now that i changed chmod of the mount point, all the subdirectories are still read-only
[03:05] <mark_> any other suggestions?
[03:05] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, did that, still no directrendering :(
[03:05] <Mortice> jacopo: can you paste the relevant line of your /etc/fstab?

[03:08] <Ali_> I have installed APACHE2 in ubuntu 6.06 but I don't know how to start it
[03:08] <akonkwa> mark_,  I did, but still no sound :-s
[03:08] <mark_> Ali_, try /etc/init.d/apache2 start
[03:08] <bionoid> timshel: mount -t cifs -o username=x,password=y //server/share /local/path
[03:08] <jacopoexchange> timshel: under places>network servers you connect to the windows network and you can see other computer's share docs
[03:08] <Mortice> jacopoexchange: hmm. seems there's something very similar going on here: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=7770&highlight=&sid=b89ee2f9a44f5cecccf119574b5dcb3d
[03:08] <mark_> akonkwa, restart pc then... ubuntu sound support is lacking at best...
[03:08] <fyrestrtr> NewpZ: for some reason you are still running xgl, change to the default gnome session.
[03:09] <Mortice> and i'm not sure i can think of any other solution than what's been suggested there, i'm afraid.
[03:09] <jacopoexchange> Mortice, alright, thanks a lot, i'll find a solution
[03:09] <akonkwa> mark_,  thanx
[03:09] <mark_> akonkwa, no worries
[03:10] <Ali_> I just typed  "apache2" in terminal but  but the result  was:

[03:11] <earthian> how come that after a check of fsck the drive still has errors ? :S
[03:11] <NewpZ> i just did a dpkg-reconfigure on xserver... i emoved the svideo stuff so im just on a normal lcdnow... still same

[03:12] <no4moment> hi, everybody
[03:12] <Ali_> what's the default root directory for apache (to put PHP files on)?
[03:12] <Jack_Sparrow> 856 users say hello back
[03:12] <mark_> Ali_, google search "ubuntu guide" it has a step by step on how to set up apache2, mysql and php
[03:12] <mark_> Ali_, it'll be more help then anyone in here
[03:13] <mark_> Ali_, but to answer your question, by default your apache2 working dir is /var/www/
[03:13] <mwe> !lamp
[03:13] <ubotu> lamp is a shortcut for Linux-Apache-Mysql-{PHP,Perl,Python}. To setup a LAMP server on Ubuntu, install the packages libapache2-mod-php5, php5-mysql, and mysql-server-5.0. You can also choose 'install a LAMP server' from the server install cd boot menu. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP

[03:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Sorry Mark
[03:16] <jacopoexchange> Mortice: I changed the ownership of the mount point and it seems to be working, though i doubt another user might be able to write to that partition
[03:16] <Mortice> jacopoexchange: if that's working, chgrp it to some group other users will be in
[03:16] <hondje> jacopoexchange: depending on the filesystem, you might be able to set the umask in the options field in fstab

[03:17] <nalpha> eh i'm sorry
[03:17] <nalpha> two times sorry all...
[03:17] <mwe> jacopoexchange: permissions of mount points don't mean anything for mounted file systems. only mount options do
[03:17] <jacopoexchange> hondje: i knew that, in fact i have never had troubles with vfat, but ext3 just seems to be damn hard to get written to
[03:17] <Jack_Sparrow> nalpha: You were probably K-lined for flooding...  :)
[03:18] <nalpha> why i have been k-lined?
[03:18] <nalpha> hah??? when i'm flooding out?
[03:18] <Mortice> nalpha: the message you pasted tells you why
[03:18] <nalpha> so i will be k-linned forever?
[03:18] <jacopoexchange> mwe: that is not true, in fact changing the ownership of the mount point made me able to write to the mounted file system as non-root
[03:18] <mark_> nalpha, yes :)
[03:19] <nalpha> oh my god.... how to contact the administrator?
[03:19] <earthian> Jack_Sparrow: i do not understand that article.. i already ran fsck -y /dev/...

[03:19] <mwe> jacopoexchange: then your system i weird.
[03:19] <mark_> bah, stupid questions! :) i'm going to bed

[03:20] <Jack_Sparrow> earthian:  If  ... fsck -y /dev/...   didnt fix it you may have hard errors not soft (fixable) errors on that drive
[03:20] <hondje> musti: from a terminal, run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[03:20] <earthian> :S
[03:21] <Chandu> hondje:what I have to edit in that file
[03:21] <Mortice> musti: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, and make sure to choose gdm as the default display manager
[03:21] <mwe> jacopoexchange: and perms of the mount point changed that?
[03:21] <timshel> jack_sparrow: i'm getting timeout's when connecting to opex_red; does that mean i need to use the method for 'accessing protected network folders' with my username on opex red? or just and administrative username on the window's workgroup?
[03:21] <Chandu> hondje:in source machine or target machine
[03:21] <jacopoexchange> mwe: yessir
[03:21] <jacopoexchange> don't ask me why, but it did

[03:22] <musti> Mortice, Do i set it default in xorg.conf or just when i log out
[03:22] <jacopoexchange> mwe: i totally agree with you. there should be something like umask for vfat to allow that. I'm thinking about reporting it as a bug, or at least a limitation of how ext3 partitions are handled
[03:22] <NewpZ> can i just uninstall xgl or something?
[03:23] <Mortice> musti: neither. you'll get a debconf prompt asking you to choose the default display manager during the installation of ubuntu-desktop
[03:23] <mwe> jacopoexchange: whether it's root.root and 000 or foo.foo 777 is not suppossed to matter once the file system is mounted. so it is a bug if it does
[03:23] <[L30N] > hi is there a way to install ubuntu from a floppy or usb device?

[03:23] <NewpZ> i can not for the life of me figure out why i cant get the nvidia drivers up and going
[03:23] <hondje> you can set umask for the partition anyways by hand afaik
[03:23] <Mortice> if gdm is already installed, you need to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm

[03:25] <Mortice> what did i help you with again? :)
[03:25] <hondje> der0b: Intel handles the i810 driver themselves, so I 'think' that it's good to go out of the box
[03:25] <NewpZ> fyrestrtr, is too for figuring out it was xgl :)

[03:28] <Dimensions> how do i create ttyACM0 node permanently ??
[03:28] <SeanTater> hondje: I've had problems with it constantly
[03:28] <der0b> thanks hondje, is it safe to assume that if glxgears runs smoothly that I have 3d accel?
[03:29] <wuzzy> and is rw support for hfs+ any good?
[03:29] <hondje> der0b: Yep, that's my metric for working / not working

[03:29] <der0b> thanks again :)
[03:29] <Protocol1> its installing
[03:29] <NewpZ> Mortice, how can i configure gdm to startup and run an app (like xmame) instead of the login screen of gnome?
[03:29] <hondje> wuzzy: I'd look at the man page for mount for all the options, you can use /hfs+ to search through it rapidly
[03:29] <Protocol1> I just hope I didnt ruin my NTFS partition
[03:30] <Protocol1> its saying that its using the free space
[03:30] <hondje> Unless you're a newbie, in which case I can walk you through mounting if you need it
[03:30] <Mortice> NewpZ: for something like an arcade box?
[03:30] <NewpZ> exactly :)
[03:30] <Jack_Sparrow> bbl
[03:30] <NewpZ> i have advancemenu and advance mame
[03:30] <Protocol1> would the free space be the unallocated parition I just created?
[03:30] <NewpZ> i want to just bootup and start up advancemenu
[03:31] <Mortice> you'd be better off not running a display manager at all and having your startx script open xmame or whatever directly, i think. But I've not done anything like that. There's probably a howto around for that
[03:31] <hondje> wuzzy: oh, and the r/w support is fine afaik
[03:32] <NewpZ> yeah, ive been looking.. i havent found anything yet
[03:32] <wuzzy> hondje: ok thanks! ill give it a shot, i guess that setting the uid and gid should do it..

[03:32] <NewpZ> xsession
[03:32] <hondje> wuzzy: cool :) I mount hfs+ fairly often, I haven't seen many problems
[03:33] <Protocol1> I just hope that I am smarter than I look
[03:33] <Protocol1> lol

[03:35] <mooky> whats peoples thoughts on using ubuntu as a small work group mail server ?
[03:35] <mooky> I've not used ubuntu as a stable server before
[03:35] <bcarr> suse makes a good server distro
[03:35] <hondje> mooky: It should be fine
[03:36] <Mortice> bcarr: lies. i'm maintaining some suse servers at the moment, and it's all pain.
[03:36] <mooky> hondje yes, I'm sure it will be fine, curious how wide spread ubuntu server use is
[03:36] <argiopeweb> Is there some option that will keep scp from overwriting files?
[03:36] <J_P> hey all, one question about P4 processors in ubuntu: What ubuntu version I use for Pentium D ?
[03:36] <TomaszD> earthian, which distro do you use?
[03:36] <earthian> ubuntu )
[03:36] <earthian> :)
[03:36] <TomaszD> earthian, install sensors-applet
[03:36] <hondje> Well, I've been using ubuntu for awhile, but I'm too paranoid to use it on a server...but that's just me
[03:37] <earthian> is it for K or for gnome?
[03:37] <mooky> hondje yes, thats my "concern" too
[03:37] <TomaszD> earthian, this is for gnome, it's an applet for the gnome-panel
[03:37] <earthian> is there any program that would work for all GUIs?
[03:37] <TomaszD> earthian, in kde, this is of course ksensors
[03:37] <hondje> mooky: I have one box running a testbed, nothing mission critical .... but the desktop is too unstable for me, it taints my opinion of the server 'version'
[03:37] <earthian> mh
[03:37] <TomaszD> earthian, both will work for both guis, but will drag parts of kde/gnome respectively with them
[03:38] <mooky> hondje I assume you've had very positive result with debian
[03:38] <hondje> mooky: Generally. It's not perfect, but for what I tend to use it on it performs well with low maintenance work
[03:39] <TomaszD> earthian, the standard sensors-applet doesn't make use of all the possible things, I've tweaked it and it shows evertyhing, voltages, fan speeds, etc. the stock applet just shows cpu temp.
[03:39] <bcarr> any newsreaders for dapper with ssl support, Im stuck using outlook =(.
[03:39] <Mortice> J_P: I assume you mean which kernel version. "sudo apt-get install linux-686" will give you the proper kernel for your architecture.
[03:39] <hondje> bcarr: pan doesn't?
[03:39] <Protocol1> what does Error loading operating system mean?
[03:39] <bcarr> onpe
[03:39] <bcarr> nope
[03:39] <argiopeweb> Thunderbird does, I think.
[03:39] <mooky> hondje for a Maildir compliemtn mail service with webmail intergration would you say "debian would meet your requirments in a stable fashion"
[03:39] <hondje> I'll be damned, that's kinda lame :(
[03:40] <hondje> yeah, I use debian for my hula server
[03:40] <mooky> hula ?
[03:40] <J_P> Mortice: but Pentium D is 64bits *EMT64) right  ?
[03:40] <mooky> never used hula
[03:40] <earthian> kk.. rebooting :S
[03:40] <Mortice> J_P: oh, right you are.
[03:40] <mooky> I was thinking more along the lines of postfix
[03:40] <bcarr> ya i was disappointed that pan didnt have it.
[03:40] <Mortice> misread your message.

[03:41] <mar_cus> sry wrong channel
[03:41] <mooky> hondje I'll probably go with postfix - just out of experience
[03:42] <hondje> mooky: for bigger things I usually go with a real mta, but the web frontend is just so...friendly
[03:42] <argiopeweb> Is there some option that will keep scp from overwriting files?
[03:43] <mwe> mm
[03:43] <Paddy_EIRE> could anyone try doing 'sudo apt-get install devede' Im not sure if its in the repos and I cant find a .deb version of it
[03:43] <chell> is it #ubuntu-pocast?
[03:43] <Protocol1> what does Error loading operating system mean?
[03:44] <Sanne> Paddy_EIRE: you can search on packages.ubuntu.com
[03:44] <argiopeweb> Protocoll: When do you get it?
[03:44] <hondje> Paddy_EIRE: apt-cache search devede turns back nothing
[03:44] <argiopeweb> I'm guessing it means that your kernel is corrupt.
 oh yes i forgot thats built into firefox search
[03:44] <midgetg0at> anyone awawke?
[03:45] <Sanne> Paddy_EIRE: it is? I should get the official firefox package to get those search options :) I can't find devede, though :(
[03:46] <J_P> Mortice: so, what I need ?
[03:46] <midgetg0at> networking channel is dead...
[03:46] <midgetg0at> anyone here have an opinion about which router is the "best consumer router"
[03:46] <Mortice> J_P: i've just been checking the forums, and the consensus seems to be that linux-686 is your best bet
[03:46] <Mortice> but i'm not sure
[03:47] <chell> doesn't anyone know the name of the ubuntu podcast IRC channel?
 in that little search box in the top right of ff is the ubuntu package search
[03:47] <Paddy_EIRE> it aint there thiough
[03:47] <Paddy_EIRE> *though
[03:48] <rixxon> can't get wifi working, feel like i've tried everything. i can list ssid:s and see traffic etcetera, but i cannot connect
[03:48] <Sanne> Paddy_EIRE: yeah, but I assume only if you have ubuntu's firefox. I have a mozzilla.org build.
[03:48] <Uriku> I got a problem with a gz file, and it's the official release of UT2004 for linux
[03:48] <Paddy_EIRE> i found and downloaded devede23.tar.bz2 what do i do with this
[03:49] <azathoth> !info rtorrent edgy
[03:49] <ubotu> rtorrent: ncurses BitTorrent client based on LibTorrent. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.5.3-1 (edgy), package size 232 kB, installed size 636 kB
[03:49] <mwe> mm
[03:50] <FurryNemesis> boink
[03:50] <pip> how to delete a directory without prompt ?
[03:50] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know how i install this 'devede23.tar.bz2' and where is a good default location to download/save this to??
[03:50] <technel> How would I flush my DNS cache in Ubuntu?
[03:51] <DeeTahPanLtah> reboot ;)
[03:51] <Dimensions> Paddy_EIRE: try tar xfvz devede23.tar.bz2
[03:51] <Uriku> >.> what is this windows?
[03:51] <der0b> Morning guys,
[03:51] <Dimensions> Uriku:  ?
[03:51] <Mortice> dimensions: that's wrong. the command is tar xzjf devede23.tar.bz2
[03:51] <der0b> Morning guys, is there a way to list how much video ram is installed on my card?
[03:52] <Uriku> DeeTahPanLtah>	reboot ;)
[03:52] <Dimensions> Mortice:  i always use xfvz and it works for me ... :)
[03:52] <J_P> Mortice: but if I put linux-686 I'm not using 64 its right ? So is better one p4 32 bits HT right ?
[03:52] <Mortice> dimensions: on .bz2 files?
[03:52] <Mortice> you sure that's right?
[03:52] <erUSUL> der0b: lspci -v
[03:52] <DeeTahPanLtah> i'd rather use jxvf ;d
[03:53] <fyrestrtr> J_P: 686 gives you hyperthreading/smp/dual core support. Without it, you aren't utilizing hyperthreading. It is *not* 64 bit.
[03:53] <der0b> thanks erusul
[03:54] <fyrestrtr> midgetg0at: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[03:55] <Hexidigital> can someone tell me what service "submission" is that listens on port 587?
[03:55] <cafuego> hexidigital: authenticated smtp
[03:56] <synic> Hexidigital: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2476.html
[03:56] <Hexidigital> cafuego:: thanks :)  i was worried
[03:56] <Hexidigital> synic:: thanks, i'll add that to my heap of bookmarks :)
[03:56] <der0b> I have an intel board (945g), the high def audio controller only plays cds digitally (analog isn't an option).  Is there a way to play cds in kubuntu?
[03:56] <fyrestrtr> der0b: plays them digitally?
[03:56] <hondje> Am I crazy, or is there no reason to run a 64bit distro on the desktop?
[03:57] <hondje> Does anything really hit that much memory?
[03:57] <fyrestrtr> hondje: you are crazy :)
[03:57] <der0b> fyrestrtr: yep, I can only tell you what the manual tells me.
[03:57] <[Deathmaster] > excuse me guys but do you know a site where i can search for linux compatible  usb mp3 players ?
[03:57] <der0b> and that's what it says
[03:57] <klm-> in amule, is it more sensible to connect to a server where there are lots of users or to one that has a fast ping?
[03:58] <fyrestrtr> hondje: rendering, databases, compiling -- all that takes up ram.
[03:58] <strav> he all! I came few mins ago for a problem that's still unresolved. I know it's silly but... fun. I wanna use compiz with gconf but the damn thing cannot seem to load... any clue why?
[03:59] <midgetg0at> i thought gconf was retired?
[03:59] <hondje> Well, I dunno about running a db on the desktop, but rendering...good point
[03:59] <Nookie> can someone help out
[03:59] <Nookie> with easyubuntu
[03:59] <erUSUL> !easyubuntu
[03:59] <ubotu> EasyUbuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ ; for help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu.
[03:59] <midgetg0at> How many packages are they offering now nookie
[03:59] <midgetg0at> 12?
[04:00] <strav> well, I also tried loading compiz with cgwd, works but the config app dosent seems to...
[04:00] <Nookie> dont know m8
[04:00] <midgetg0at> last i checked it was hardly worth dealing with
[04:00] <Nookie> i have installed easyubuntu on 20 different systems
[04:00] <Nookie> but now im getting error all the time
[04:00] <midgetg0at> funny that they put time into the interface and yada yada but it only has 12 progs avail
[04:00] <strav> midgetg0at, talkin about gconf?
[04:00] <midgetg0at> at least automatix offered a good 50 of 'em
[04:00] <fyrestrtr> strav: #xgl / #ubuntu-xgl is where you want to be.
[04:00] <Uriku> >.< Unreal Tournament 2004's support is only with windows >.> can anyone help me? I don't seem to even get it out of the gz file
[04:00] <midgetg0at> no, talking about easyu
[04:01] <strav> fyrestrtr, thanks!
[04:01] <Nookie> haha lol
[04:01] <DeeTahPanLtah> Uriku: you've got gz file? ;d
[04:01] <strav> it is where I wanted to be actually ;)
[04:01] <Uriku> UT2004-LNX-Demo3334.run.gz
[04:01] <Uriku> yea gz
[04:01] <DeeTahPanLtah> tar zxvf <filename>
[04:01] <DeeTahPanLtah> then after you've unpacked you'll have .run file i guess
[04:01] <midgetg0at> sudo rm -r *.* might work
[04:01] <cafuego> No, gunzip <filename>
[04:02] <DeeTahPanLtah> it's the same ;p
[04:02] <cafuego> then 'sudo sh ./filename.run'
[04:02] <DeeTahPanLtah> then when you've got .run file...
[04:02] <godzirra> Can anyone help em out?  My system running slower than dirt running fluxbox and 512 megs of ram on a celeron 2.4ghz.  I'm not -running- anything but firefox.
[04:02] <DeeTahPanLtah> chmod +x <filename>
[04:02] <cafuego> DeeTahPanLtah: It's not a tar file, dude.
[04:02] <DeeTahPanLtah> and sudo sh thinfy ;p
[04:02] <Nookie> midgetg0at: what is automatix... can i download all needed codes and so on in there?
[04:02] <Nookie> and where to get it midgetg0at
[04:02] <DeeTahPanLtah> cafuego: but tar can unpack both bz2 and gz ;p
[04:02] <cafuego> It also doesn't need to be +x to run sh ./file
[04:02] <DeeTahPanLtah> okay,about this one you may be right ;p
[04:03] <cafuego> DeeTahPanLtah: tar xfvz does *not* unpack gzipped files.
[04:03] <Uriku> DeeTahPanLtah: it doesn't seem to wok
[04:03] <Uriku> work
[04:03] <DeeTahPanLtah> you totally sure? ;p
[04:03] <Uriku> yea
[04:03] <DeeTahPanLtah> Uriku: gunzip there ;p
[04:03] <mwe> tar can unzip files before untarring. for just unzipping it's bunzip2 gunzip etc
[04:03] <cafuego> DeeTahPanLtah: Try it.
[04:03] <erUSUL> godzirra: run top to find the culprit
[04:03] <cafuego> Uriku: 'gunzip <filename>'
[04:04] <cafuego> Uriku: 'sudo sh ./filename.run'
[04:04] <Uriku> ok...
[04:04] <Protocol1> is there a way I can re-activate my boot flag for my NTSF partition?
[04:04] <Protocol1> or turn it on?
[04:04] <Uriku> again, "gunzip: UT2004-LNX-Demo3334.run.gz: unexpected end of file"
[04:04] <Protocol1> from the installation area?
[04:04] <cafuego> Uriku: Corrupted download.
[04:05] <Uriku> I redownloaded the file
[04:05] <cafuego> it's still corrupted, though.
[04:05] <synic> check the md5 on it.
[04:05] <der0b> I have an intel board (945g), the high def audio controller only plays cds digitally (http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-014753.htm).  Is there a way to play cds in kubuntu?
[04:05] <Enselic> If I want to recursivly find all (.c/.h) files containing the string "gegl_object_get_type", what is the command?
[04:06] <Enselic> I tried to google it but failed :(
[04:06] <Protocol1> is there a way I can re-activate my boot flag for my NTSF partition?
[04:06] <Uriku> though it did oddly download at 204kBps while my limit was only 192
[04:06] <Protocol1> from the installation area?
[04:07] <erUSUL> Enselic: grep -r gegl_object_get_type *.{c,h}
[04:07] <cafuego> Enselic: What you need is exuberant ctags!
[04:07] <Enselic> erUSUL: Thank you
[04:08] <erUSUL> Enselic: no problem...
[04:08] <cafuego> Generate a tagfile, then  'vi -t gegl_object_get_type'
[04:08] <ezenu> when I use nmap on my router, it completely locks it up -- so I can't even ping the router.. and nmap shows every port is open.. any ideas?
[04:09] <Protocol1> is there a way I can re-activate my boot flag for my NTSF partition?
[04:09] <Protocol1> from the installation area?
[04:11] <godzirra> erUSUL: so far firefox is at the top of the list for whats taking up memroy.
[04:11] <godzirra> memory
[04:11] <godzirra> firefox and Xorg
[04:11] <hondje> epiphany > firefox :)
[04:11] <godzirra> but 512 megs of ram shuold be plenty to run firefox and Xorg shuoldnt it? :/
[04:11] <godzirra> on a 2.4 ghz celeron
[04:11] <hondje> :-)
[04:11] <mooky> oooh whats todays flame war topic
[04:11] <cafuego> godzirra: Well, sufficient anyway.
[04:12] <hondje> The one next to me is about the same, FF and Xorg run fairly okay
[04:12] <godzirra> sufficient to not be dirt slow, right?
[04:12] <godzirra> My system is rnuning pretty damned slow.
[04:12] <hondje> mooky: How OO.org and Firefox are hugely overrated :)
[04:12] <cafuego> godzirra: indeed
[04:12] <hondje> godzirra: yeah, it should
[04:12] <W_McL> lol
[04:12] <mwe> godzirra: and you said fluxbox too, right?
[04:12] <erUSUL> godzirra: i was thinking of some stray process taking the cpu
[04:13] <cafuego> firefox isn't trying to run a flash applet, is it?
[04:13] <cafuego> Or java?
[04:13] <hondje> godzirra: Okay, the specs on that one are 2.7 GHz Celeron and 768MB RAM, so fairly similar
[04:13] <hlabs> hey guys i need to add some files to the /opt folder. I need some help in doing so. Could you tell me how can i add files to the /opt folder . It says that i need to be root to do so.
[04:14] <hondje> hlabs: Use the sudo command
[04:14] <Masticore> is there a wireless network program that work with WPA ?
[04:14] <godzirra> mwe: Yeah, fluxbox.
[04:14] <godzirra> but fluxbox is a ton less memory nitensive than gnome anythnig or kde
[04:14] <godzirra> erUSUL: not that I can see..
[04:14] <cafuego> Masticore: Ubuntu does that by default, it needs the Network manager applet, which calls wpasupplicant.
[04:15] <hlabs> see i downloaded xammp and i have to place it in the /opt folder.
[04:15] <hondje> I find XFce to be a good compromise between something like Flux and a full-blown DE like Gnome
[04:15] <godzirra> flux does everything I need.
[04:15] <hlabs> but it says that i need to be root. I am using the admin account but its not working
[04:15] <Masticore> cafuego is the package named wpasupplicant ?
[04:15] <godzirra> What else could it be?
[04:16] <godzirra> I raelly dont know why this is so slow.
[04:16] <W_McL> hlabs: call the command with sudo <insert your command here>
[04:16] <hondje> use 'sudo' to do a command as root, hlabs, or 'sudo -s' to make yourself essentially root
[04:16] <godzirra> I run a 2ghz celeron at home which runs faster.
[04:16] <erUSUL> godzirra: unusual i/o to/from the hardisks ??
[04:16] <cafuego> Masticore: network-manager-gnome and wpasupplicant
[04:16] <hondje> godzirra: If you open up a terminal and run 'top' you can sit and watch what happens
[04:16] <Masticore> cafuego tnx
[04:17] <hondje> maybe you have a crazy cron job or something
[04:17] <Uriku> oh and another thing >.> every time I boot in Linux, I get some error messege about a filesystem with errors. it says that 1.2% is corrupted, but not infectios
[04:17] <Uriku> I suspect the source is a windows driver readin and writing in the Linux HD
[04:18] <godzirra> erUSUL: how can I tell?
[04:18] <cafuego> Uriku: No, that's 1.2% non-contiguous files. not an error, but normal.
[04:18] <godzirra> hondje: I am..  the server load is a little high (at about .50) but the only things running are gaim, firefox, and Xorg
[04:18] <godzirra> that are taking up any memory
[04:18] <Uriku> so... what can I do about it?
[04:18] <Uriku> it shouldn't happen
[04:19] <cafuego> Uriku: If the disk check runs at each bootup, then something is messing with the Linux aprtition, yes.
[04:19] <hondje> hmm, I'm running more than that on mine and it's chugging along fine in Gnome .... hmmm
[04:19] <cafuego> Uriku: But if it gets as far as that message, the error is corrrected and the filesystem is fine again.
[04:19] <Uriku> but it gets that message each time
[04:20] <erUSUL> godzirra: vmstat 1, or just looking to the led of the hd and the noise
[04:20] <SonicChao> I have a really old machine, and it fails to boot from the ATAPI Disk (whatever that is, I'm a Linux person). Does that matter if I install (X)ubuntu? Is an atapi Disk hardware?
[04:20] <Uriku> and yea windows is messing with the partition, though I havn't written on the HD in a couple of boots with windows
[04:20] <godzirra> erUSUL:   0  0  24656 102480   1068 192120    0    0     0     0  199  1108  0  0 100  0
[04:21] <godzirra> that 199 flips up to 350 every once in awhile
[04:21] <rogerio> hello
[04:21] <rogerio> i m fron brasil
[04:21] <hondje> that's a decent amount of free mem
[04:21] <godzirra> bi and bo under io stay at 0 mostly
[04:21] <W_McL> Uriku: you should better not give windows access to linux partitions, because it can't even handle the file permissions
[04:21] <cafuego> SonicChao: An ATAPI disk is probably the cdrom but _maybe_ the harddisk.
[04:21] <SonicChao> cafuego: So, would Xubuntu boot?
[04:21] <Uriku> yea but I'm an only user so it doesn't bother me
[04:22] <SonicChao> Or is the computer _junk_?
[04:22] <cafuego> SonicChao: Only way to know for sure is to try...
[04:22] <SonicChao> cafuego: Ok.
[04:22] <hondje> If it refuses to boot from the cdrom, there are other ways to install  ... dark forgotten ways :D
[04:22] <Miles-Prower> SonicChao ? Are you from SoaH ?
[04:22] <SonicChao> Miles-Prower: What?
[04:22] <SonicChao> SoaH?
[04:22] <klaxian> has anyone had problems signing files with the latest seahorse update?
[04:23] <W_McL> Uriku: the problem is that there are some system users and groups and many files need specific permissions to work properly. so windows can mess up a linux system quickly if it has acces to it's partition
[04:23] <Miles-Prower> Okay, obviously not :p
[04:23] <remake> hi guys
[04:23] <SonicChao> Er, kk. X3
[04:23] <simmerz> i have a small dilemma on my hands. We have a live production web server running debian (stable/testing - someone before me didn't know how to manage it). We are just about to get a test server, also currently going to be running debian. is there any way possible to migrate the live one to ubuntu?
[04:23] <remake> i just installed ubuntu last night and so far i'm very delighted with it
[04:24] <remake> the only thing is my secondary hd wont mount
[04:24] <remake> can anyone help?
[04:24] <hondje> klaxian: No, but Evolution stopped wanting to sign my emails recently :-/
[04:24] <Uriku> yea but I haven't got that problem
[04:24] <hondje> remake: what's the filesystem
[04:24] <Abst> Where can I get 'GL Library'?
[04:24] <zybrid> How can i make my thinclient networkboot to a nomachine-server? i cant find any good information at google :/
[04:24] <klaxian> hondje: that sucks...it seems evolution is still working for me
[04:24] <zybrid> is it possible?
[04:24] <remake> it used to be ntfs on the drive that refuses to mount before my ubunku installation
[04:24] <klaxian> but i can't sign any files with seahorse
[04:25] <hondje> klaxian: so probably unrelated then...though I usually don't use seahorse
[04:25] <drezha> are there any programs that can play music off a Samba share?
[04:25] <hondje> remake: Okay, what's the partition?
[04:26] <remake> i have not made any partitions during the install
[04:26] <W_McL> drezha: if you mount the samba share into your local filesystem, every music player should be able to use it
[04:26] <remake> i wanted to but i didnt know which partition was my back up
[04:27] <drezha> will mounting it take up hard drive space? It wont will it
[04:27] <remake> so after messing around with partitions i just left that alone and installed ubunku on my primary hd without partitions
[04:27] <hondje> remake: okay. 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/hd*' will show you the partitions, where * is the specific drive
[04:27] <Miles-Prower> I'd like to create a shell script to batch-rename files, anyone can help me out?
[04:27] <hondje> remake: so the slave drive has/had the NTFS partition?
[04:27] <hondje> If so, do that with hdb
[04:27] <remake> yes and it says it's located in "computer:///"
[04:27] <drezha> mounting it isn't "Places > Connect to Server then add it like that?
[04:28] <erUSUL> remake: post the output of 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb' to a pastebin
[04:28] <hondje> remake: and if you can add the output from running 'mount' by itself, that could be useful
[04:28] <sachac> Abst: Is that OpenGL?
[04:28] <remake> output of sudo fdisk? i'm sorry i'm a total newbie how do i do that?
[04:28] <fulat2k> hi folks, i'm running on the k7 kernel.  but in my software updates, i still see the non-k7 kernel packages for update.  any idea how to remove them?
[04:29] <hondje> remake: go to applications -> accessories -> terminal and type that in
[04:29] <W_McL> drezha: it's similar. this way might work too
[04:29] <drezha> the way I've just done it doesnt
[04:29] <erUSUL> remake: run the comand as i typed it and copy/paste de autput to pastebin.ca
[04:30] <hondje> well, if it's showing in Computer:/// .... then isn't it already mounted?
[04:30] <remake> ok ok so that's the comand of ubuntu
[04:30] <Mortice> fulat2k: depends which kernel shows up for update. if, for example, it's linux-server, do "sudo apt-get remove linux-server*" in a console
[04:30] <drezha> it's showing on desktop

[04:41] <pestilence> does anybody know of the proper way to purge all settings from an IMAP server in evolution?
[04:41] <peterz> is it know that edgy doesn't build UML kernels anymore?

[04:44] <remake> anyone?
[04:44] <Abst> Can I list all processes and kill one?

[04:45] <fulat2k> Mortice: darn :)
[04:45] <remake> fstab? what is the complete code?
[04:45] <hondje> remake: 'fstab' is the file /etc/fstab
[04:45] <Mortice> fulat2k: i don't know how ubuntu's default install deals with QT apps. someone here will know, though, I'm sure.
[04:45] <Jack_Sparrow> gksudo gedit  /etc/fstab
[04:46] <hondje> run 'gedit fstab' in that terminal and you can copy it
[04:46] <Jack_Sparrow> gedit  /etc/fstab
[04:46] <Jack_Sparrow> to just copy it
[04:46] <hondje> er, yeah what he said lol
[04:46] <Jack_Sparrow> remake: Did you even look at the link I gave you earlier

[04:52] <Jack_Sparrow> remake: Try ths link and instructions I gave you
[04:52] <longwave> aikie: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ or use "apt-cache search <searchstring>" from the command line
[04:53] <DeeTahPanLtah> and if you want all packages to be listedn,i'd try apt-cache search '/*'
[04:53] <hondje> apt-cache search . will dump the whole thing
[04:53] <remake> yes i am back sorry about that
[04:53] <remake> what did you last say jack_sparrow?
[04:53] <Jack_Sparrow> remake: Try the link and instructions I gave you
[04:54] <Abst> Can anyone help me install Armagedtron (whatever) AD?
[04:54] <longwave> "apt-cache search /*" doesn't return anything for me
[04:54] <hondje> Abst: From a terminal, run 'sudo apt-get install armagetron'
[04:55] <iratsu_> what's a good VPN clienrt?
[04:55] <remake> alright i'm doing it now
[04:55] <Abst> hondje: Ah theres a package, I was hoping for this!
[04:55] <longwave> "apt-cache pkgnames" will also tersely list all package names

[04:56] <zoopla> Hi.
[04:56] <usama> hi all
[04:57] <zoopla> Is there anyone who can help me with accessing iDisk?
[04:57] <usama> can i play real media with xmms?
[04:57] <Shadowhywind> anyone good at solving ndiswrappper problems?
[04:57] <ubuntu_> yay /o\ lmsensors need some major configuration on my dual processor mobo :o
[04:57] <ubuntu_> at least with label :)
[04:57] <ubuntu_> at least with labels :)
[04:59] <zoopla> Anyone know how to 'mget' files with spaces using 'cadaver?'
[04:59] <chopchop_> hi, what does the menu.lst look like, if i want to boot windows from external hard drive (sda2) ?
[04:59] <trappist> zoopla: never heard of mget or cadaver, but usually you have to escape the spaces, like... my\ file.ext
[05:00] <chopchop_> using grub
[05:00] <trappist> hondje: why not?
[05:00] <hondje> trappist: I dunno, just never worked for me
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> chopchop_,  a external usb hard drive?
[05:00] <trappist> hondje: did you run sensors-detect?
[05:00] <usama> is it possible to play real media in xmms?
[05:00] <synic> zoopla: use tab completion
[05:00] <chopchop_> Dr_Willis: yeah, /dev/sda2 is where windows layes
[05:00] <hondje> trappist: Oh yeah, did all that. I don't think my mobo is supported
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_:  Please pastebin your menu.lst   gedit  /boot/grub/menu.lst    Remember to make a backup copy before starting
[05:01] <drezha> I have Smbfs
[05:01] <hondje> Then again, I haven't tried since .... the warthog release probably
[05:01] <trappist> usama: there's a realmedia plugin, but it's a little hard to find.  xmms.org took it down due to licensing issues iirc
[05:01] <Dr_Willis> chopchop_,  im not even sure windows  can run off a external usb drive.. its awful picky about what drives it runs from.
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> agreed
[05:01] <weswh-> what would anyone reccomend for a dynamic dns type service? just looking for something that is free, easy, i can maintain from my ubuntu machine...to get remote access on my dynamic ip.
[05:01] <chopchop_> Dr_Willis: it can, im sure bout that
[05:01] <trappist> hondje: oh, if your board isn't supported, all you can do is wait.  but it's probably worth trying again if it's been that long
[05:01] <zoopla> Thanks, synic, I'll look into tab compleition
[05:01] <chopchop_> Jack_Sparrow: pastbin ??
[05:01] <Jack_Sparrow> !paste
[05:01] <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)
[05:02] <trappist> weswh-: I heartily recommend dyndns.org
[05:02] <hondje> Now I'm kinda hoping time has been well....I oughta go dig in their site
[05:02] <weswh-> do i need to install a client on my machine? how does that work?
[05:02] <trappist> hondje: a lot of it has to do with kernel support for your sensors
[05:02] <hondje> weswh-: ddclient works pretty well
[05:03] <iratsu_> what's a good VPN client?
[05:03] <GNu_Joe> Note: you must login once every 3 months or dyndns.org will deleate your account and you will have to start from scratch
[05:03] <trappist> weswh-: there are many clients for dynamic dns services available in the repos, and I think all of them support dyndns.org
[05:03] <usama> trappist: can you tell me the name of the plugin, i will find it
[05:03] <weswh-> gotcha.
[05:03] <trappist> iratsu_: depends on what kind of vpn you're connecting to
[05:03] <trappist> usama: I don't remember - I quit using xmms when amarok came out :)
[05:04] <iratsu_> trappist: my university's wireless service
[05:04] <ubuntu_> omfg
[05:04] <usama> trappist: hmm, ok
[05:04] <ubuntu_> :o
[05:04] <ubuntu_> o_O
[05:04] <ubuntu_> lost+found directory statistics:
[05:04] <ubuntu_> 368506 items, totalling 117.8 GB
[05:04] <ubuntu_> erm
[05:04] <ubuntu_> can i remove them? :o
[05:04] <hondje> You'd think lmsensors would like an intel mobo :(
[05:04] <trappist> iratsu_: is it ipsec? pptp? openvpn? cisco?
[05:05] <chopchop_> Jack_Sparrow: http://pastebin.com/784193
[05:05] <sophy> my windows don't have the cross to be opened , what should I do?
[05:06] <iratsu_> trappist: apparently it usees pptp to encrypt data, and they talk about an IPSec cisco VPN client
[05:06] <ubuntu_> guys... i have a lost+found directory under my /target filesystem where i am reinstalling ubuntu... there are like over 360000 files and the size is over 110Gb
[05:06] <ubuntu_> can i remove them
[05:06] <ubuntu_> ?
[05:06] <ubuntu_> is it a garbage
[05:06] <ubuntu_> ?
[05:06] <ubuntu_> or my files?
[05:06] <ubuntu_> :S
[05:07] <hondje> ubuntu_: Usually that means something bad happened
[05:07] <ubuntu_> :9
[05:07] <ubuntu_> omg
[05:07] <ubuntu_> omg
[05:08] <ubuntu_> just noticed all my /home is no more
[05:08] <ubuntu_> :o
[05:08] <jbroome> !away > W_McL
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> now ya know where it went
[05:08] <don_jr> How do I access the windows side of my partition from within ubuntu?
[05:08] <hondje> Yeah, about that .... lost+found is where things go when they lose their home...or in this case, /home
[05:09] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_: Make a backup copy before doing anything
[05:09] <mortal5> has anyone here experienced super slow usb transfer speeds?
[05:10] <chopchop_> Jack_Sparrow: i did, can you help me out?
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> !windows
[05:10] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. Also see http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 - !equivalents - http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm
[05:10] <mortal5> I switched from slackware to ubuntu, and my usb speeds are dog slow
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> oops wrong factoid
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> !mount

[05:10] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  ya basicially mount the things corectly and i cant find the right bot factoid for the url.. heres my own i like to refer to.
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> The DeFacto NTFS Guide (and good info for vfat as well) --->  http://wiki.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=ntfs-en#can_i_mount_an_ntfs_volume
[05:11] <realist> That factoid doesn't really promote linux advocacy
[05:11] <don_jr> DR_Willis I"m going to get rid of windows once I can get my mp3's off of it.
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_: looking now
[05:11] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  heh..
[05:11] <iratsu_> trappist: so what does that mean?
[05:11] <nahoj> any network guru online??
[05:11] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_: Which drive is windows on that you want to try and boot?
[05:11] <Dr_Willis> then you want to learn all about how linux mounts drives and so forth,
[05:11] <hondje> mortal5: did you grep lsmod, make sure that you're using ehci if you're supposed to, etc?
[05:12] <chopchop_> Jack_Sparrow: /dev/sda2
[05:12] <gumby600m> How do I remove the "history" or "recently viewed media files" in totem's "Movie" menu???
[05:13] <mortal5> hondje: when the machine boots i see messages of low speed usb drivers being used
[05:13] <trappist> iratsu_: there's a cisco vpn client available for linux.  it's not gpl, but it's free as in beer.  google knows where you can get it.
[05:13] <mortal5> I don't know how to force ubuntu to use the higher speed drivers
[05:14] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_: First partition on sda2 ?
[05:14] <trappist> mortal5: are you sure you have usb2.0 ports?
[05:14] <hondje> mortal5: I don't know that you can ... I would do lsmod | grep ci and see if ehci or ochi is loaded
[05:14] <mortal5> I'm quite positive that i have 2.0 ports
[05:14] <chopchop_> Jack_Sparrow: that is the second one
[05:14] <hondje> USB problems are so rare these days
[05:15] <chopchop_> Jack_Sparrow: sda : sda1 -> ext3 , sda2 -> fat32 (for windows)
[05:16] <realist> nahoj: you're better off just asking your question.
[05:16] <mortal5> hondje: may i pm you?
[05:16] <hondje> mortal5: hit me

[05:16] <xweber_> somebody here to give me a little help on installation?
[05:16] <mortal5> it popped the other two out to chan
[05:16] <nahoj> realist, the problem is that I don't really know what to ask...
[05:17] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_: I made the change I would try first and sending it to the pastebin now
[05:17] <trygg> How do i enable overlay, so i can watch a movie on both my regular screen and on the tv (via tvout)
[05:17] <hondje> trygg: Same movie, or different ones?
[05:18] <trygg> Some one. Now its just black on the tv
[05:18] <realist> nahoj: why are you looking for network gurus here, of all places?
[05:18] <hondje> oh, hmmm. I use my tvout as a different screen in xorg.conf
[05:18] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_: PAstebin seems a bit slow today
[05:19] <idefix> my PC won't execute scripts by ./script1.sh, what could be wrong?
[05:19] <trygg> Oh, can someone else help me? :D
[05:19] <Mortice> idefix: does it work when you do sh script1.sh?
[05:19] <hondje> idefix: Are the permissions such that it's executible?
[05:20] <idefix> sh script1.sh works \o/
[05:20] <idefix> hondje I pretyped sudo
[05:20] <Mortice> idefix: it's almost certainly a permissions issue. do chmod +x script1.sh, then try ./script1.sh
[05:21] <Jack_Sparrow> chopchop_: Join #Jack_Sparrow and I will paste the 4 lines I added below end debian automagic kernels line #144,5,6,7
[05:21] <idefix> Mortice, I was getting paranoid that someone who used my PC somehow blocked this
[05:21] <realist> Jack_Sparrow: you could always use #flood
[05:21] <realist> (If the paste is not 'too' large)
[05:22] <Jack_Sparrow> 4 short lines of code
[05:22] <Mortice> idefix: heh. i assume that fixed it then?
[05:22] <idefix> yes thx
[05:23] <don_jr> Dr_Willis that page you showed me is great help, for ntfs systems, my windows side is running on fat32
[05:23] <xweber_> gparted is blind - it would not recognized my installed partitions - so i cannot install ubuntu (with fdisk -l my partitions are shown) - anybody an idea?
[05:23] <realist> Jack_Sparrow: use #flood then, if it's faster and/or more convenient
[05:23] <Marsmensch> !netherland
[05:23] <Mortice> idefix: good good. very often when you download scripts, the permissions aren't set so that they're executable. it's worth remembering that you may need to do chmod +x on them.
[05:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about netherland - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:24] <trygg> hondje: Heh, could you explain how you did it?
[05:24] <hondje> I missed something :) How did I do what?
[05:24] <davidw> anyone know about dell firmware updates?
[05:24] <trygg> How do use the tvout as a different screen in xorg.conf? :)
[05:25] <hondje> trygg: wasn't that hard, I can give you my xorg.conf if you'd like
[05:25] <idefix> in DOS you always had the comman type file, there is a type command in the shells but it doesn't do the same, what command is the equiv. of the DOS command type?
[05:25] <trygg> It might help. :)
[05:25] <bbrazil> idefix: cat
[05:25] <idefix> what does it stand for?
[05:25] <bbrazil> concatenate
[05:25] <don_jr> I got it to work!
[05:26] <hondje> ^5
[05:26] <idefix> but, that is to connect files righ? so you can type cat file1 file2.. fileN ..
[05:26] <idefix> I'll just try and stop trolling here
[05:26] <mod^> How do I open port 80 with iptables?
[05:27] <Jack_Sparrow> !firewall
[05:27] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line) or firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing)
[05:27] <mod^> iptables -A .. +something
[05:27] <hondje> iptables -F will open it for sure :)
[05:28] <mod^> ...
[05:28] <longwave> mod^: port 80 inbound, i presume?
[05:28] <grasshopper> can someone tell me how to make everything one-click in Gnome. Like the folders. Double clicking ev erything is tedious
[05:29] <ritateKeku> hi
[05:29] <hondje> grasshopper: open nautilus, it's in preferences -> behavior
[05:29] <GomezDen> How do I change a users GID?
[05:29] <mod^> longwave: longwave for apache, need to see the phpmyadmin from intranet and internet
[05:29] <grasshopper> hondje: thx amigo
[05:29] <mod^> oops, double pressed tab
[05:29] <longwave> mod^: "sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 --dport 80 -j ACCEPT" will accept packets sent to port 80 that arrive on eth0
[05:29] <LRushing> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j accept # or something really close)
[05:29] <hondje> grasshopper: No problem ... that should be the default setting :)
[05:30] <mod^> longwave: Thank you.
[05:30] <LRushing> iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 80 -j accept
[05:30] <mod^> do I have to open the input and output? yes?
[05:30] <LRushing> you'll need accept for both input and output chains
[05:30] <mod^> Ok. Thanks.
[05:30] <LRushing> or, you can use state tracking
[05:30] <longwave> mod^, LRushing: that depends on the default rules you have set, or yeah, use state tracking
[05:31] <don_jr> Okay, now that I have what I want off of my windows side of the partition, can I open that space up to Ubuntu and remove the partition?
[05:31] <longwave> i tend to leave the default policy on OUTPUT as ACCEPT so i don't need output rules most of the time
[05:31] <hondje> don_jr: absolutely, and gparted offers a nice gui to do it with :)
[05:31] <jorik> anyone knows software (or any other way) to print out a calender ? i'd like to have one month on each A4 ...
[05:31] <mar_cus> hey everybody I'm having this problem with me not being abl to see the windowboarders in compiz everything else seemes to work, I'm using amd64, anybody knows what the problem is?
[05:31] <LRushing> Longwave: yea that works to
[05:31] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  simply change 'ntfs' to vfat :P and it all applies.. well except the readonly part of ntfs  - amazing eh?
[05:32] <LRushing> but, I like to keep my box from putting any noice out on the network.
[05:32] <sahara> i need help
[05:32] <LRushing> and LOCK everything down.
[05:32] <Jack_Sparrow> don_jr: BE aware that removing a partition below your ubuntu install can mess your grub loaders ability to find ubuntu
[05:32] <longwave> LRushing: don't you have to be careful about certain ICMP types and things like that if you lock down all outbound packets?
[05:33] <LRushing> true, usually I deny all and start opening up speicifics,
[05:33] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow I'm not sure what that means, when I do fdisk -l, hda1 the first one is the windows partition.  If I remove it completely, iwll that open it up to Ubuntu? or is there more to it?
[05:33] <sahara> i just installed LAMP using ubuntu server cd ..... i have static IP and behind router...... i can ping IP addresses and others can ping my IP .... but cant use apt-get or ping google.com, it wont resolve the web addresses
[05:33] <gekko`> is there any alternative repository to the cipherfunk.org one?
[05:33] <LRushing> and I will also add a log to check what is gettign blocked
[05:33] <Jack_Sparrow> don_jr:  there is more to it than simply removing the old partition.
[05:33] <longwave> sahara: do you have your nameserver entries set in /etc/resolv.conf?
[05:33] <sahara> longwave let me check please
[05:34] <zeasier> what tools should i use to limit the bandwidth a server will use
[05:34] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow what else should I do?  It hold's the bulk of my HD and I'd like to open that space up for Ubuntu only and remove windows completely from this box.
[05:34] <Jack_Sparrow> don_jr: You can use gparted to shrink it to an insignificant size and expand your ext3 and not have partition ID's change...
[05:35] <trygg> j/j debian
[05:35] <hondje> wouldn't update-grub take care of it if he nuked it?
[05:35] <sahara> lol it pinged now......\
[05:35] <trygg> /j debian
[05:35] <trygg> Huh? :(
[05:35] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow so just shrink one and enlarge the other and then I won't have to remove anything completely?
[05:35] <sahara> ty a lot longwave.... to resolve this i had installed LAMP twice already....
[05:35] <Jack_Sparrow> hondje: Yes. but wanted him to be aware that if he just nuked the ntfs and rebooted he would have a problem
[05:35] <hondje> Okay, just making sure :-)
[05:36] <Jack_Sparrow> hondje: SInce he seems new to this I wanted to cover that aspect
[05:36] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow so I can remove the fat32 partition and then update-grub and I"ll be safe to reboot?
[05:36] <ubuntu_> hey
[05:37] <ubuntu_> what does that mean?:
[05:37] <ubuntu_> root@ubuntu:/target/.Trash-root/usr/share/man/man8# rm -f evms_activate.8.gz rm: cannot remove `evms_activate.8.gz': Operation not permitted
[05:37] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  what ya removeing it to? you going to merge the partition with another? or put a new filesystem onit?
[05:37] <ubuntu_> wtf?
[05:37] <lost_soul> anyone available for a bit of help?  problem is explained http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249143&highlight=eggdrop
[05:37] <Jack_Sparrow> don_jr: YEs, but update grub has a few questions you may not know the answer to...
[05:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Thanks Dr_Willis
[05:37] <don_jr> Dr_Willis I want to open up the space to Ubuntu and remove windows completely from my machine without having to completely format my HD and fresh install ubuntu
[05:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Time for breakfast here..  bbl
[05:38] <hondje> If you take, say, hda1 from ntfs to ext3, would grub care since you didn't move the boot image?
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  if you merge the partitions. grub can get confused.. if you leave it there. and just reformat it to ext3 - grub shoudlent get confused.
[05:38] <Dr_Willis> hondje,  it shouldent care.
[05:38] <longwave> grub won't mind as long as (a) the partition number stay the same and (b) you don't do any resizing or moving
[05:38] <hondje> okay, didn't think so but best ask when you don't know :)
[05:39] <lost_soul> any idead?
[05:39] <don_jr> Dr_Willis so I use gparted to make the fat32 ystem into ext3, then just resize it so that the ext3 that has ubuntu installed on it is larger?
[05:40] <tonyyarusso> My system has suddenly stopped locking the screen when suspended (no password is required when woken up).  No updates have been installed recently.  What's going on?
[05:41] <CzarAlex> how can I get two different domain names to point to the linux web server and have 1 domain get files from one folder, while the other domain gets it files from another folder? (I assume this is going to be more involved than just dyndns.com)
[05:41] <dutch> how do you extract a .tgz file...can't remember
[05:41] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  THAT will confuse grub, you basicially delete the existing partition, then resize the other.. no need to convert then resize
[05:41] <Dr_Willis> but grub is worth learning. :P and its not too hard to fix.. for those that know grub. You will also have to alter your fstab.
[05:41] <don_jr> Dr_Willis so I can delete the fat32 partition completely, then resize my ext3 to take up the space?
[05:42] <mondo> Hi, I just installed the "nautilus-script-audio-convert" package, but I have no idea how to utilize this.
[05:42] <don_jr> Dr_Willis and I can do all of this with gparted?
[05:42] <cribbon> hi all. Got a wierd problem. I installed xgl, and it's working ( used it before, i can tell ), but i cant press anything ordinarily with the mouse, however, if i do hold in ctrl it works fine. Anyone ever heard of this before?
[05:42] <hondje> don_jr: You can just mount the newly freed space at like /home/movies or something if you want, and save all that hastle
[05:42] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  yes gparted can do it. but gpart wont fix the grub/fstab  changes that need to be made
[05:42] <merch> dutch, is tgz the same as tar.gz? if so, tar xzvf filename
[05:42] <dutch> that doesn't work...
[05:42] <sahara> longwave i just ran apt-get update and then apt-get ubuntu-desktop its on waiting for headers for the past many minutes.... is that normal?
[05:43] <don_jr> Dr_Willis I'd be better off just reformating the entire drive and re-installing Ubuntu then eh?
[05:43] <lost_soul> asked previously, but wondering if anyone would mind helping with a problem involving ssl of an eggdrop bot.  Details explained http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249143&highlight=eggdrop
[05:43] <Dr_Willis> don_jr,  you are BEST off learning how grub and the fstab works and knowing how to fix them. its not too hard
[05:43] <sahara> longwave it started on its own ty :)
[05:43] <Jack_Sparrow> don_jr: It isnt a bad idea to have a second ext3 to save a system backup and or a copy of /home
[05:43] <don_jr> That's my next question.  I have a cd player that plays MP3's, is there a program for ubuntu that will burn mp3's in audio format without converting it?
[05:43] <longwave> sahara: ah ok. sometimes apt stalls, if it's stuck downloading you can always ctrl-c and re-do the command to see if that helps
[05:44] <mondo> Hi, I just installed the "nautilus-script-audio-convert" package, but I have no idea how to utilize this. That is, I expected it to appear in the right-click menu, but it doesn't, and I don't know where else to look.
[05:44] <foxiness> hi
[05:44] <Jack_Sparrow> !k3b
[05:44] <ubotu> k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto
[05:44] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow but if I change the fat32 system to ext3, can I then resize my main partition of ext3 that Ubuntu runs on to be larger?
[05:44] <merch> dutch, that's funny. File ext says that's a gzipped tar file. Try: file filename
[05:44] <Slyboots> Hi
[05:45] <Jack_Sparrow> don_jr: yes, you can make a smaller ext3 where fat32 was... and make bigger your ubuntu installation partition
[05:45] <dutch> merch..it's a tar file, but I believe it's a diffierent type..tar -vxfz not working..
[05:45] <Slyboots> It crashes when it reaches the stage to configure Grub :( The error is very vauge, but does the installer do anything else after Grub is installed?
[05:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_Willis: do you know how to make a persistent /home on a second ext3?
[05:45] <hondje> It'd be easier if you just did what you wanted with it, ran update-grub, and asked someone here for help with that, or doing what Dr_Willis suggested and learning how it works
[05:45] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow so with gparted, I change the fat32 to ext3, then resize my main ext3 to be larger and shirnk the new one?
[05:45] <foxiness> Slyboots then you need to explane your problem here :)
[05:45] <merch> dutch, your tar options are wrong, order is important: tar xzvf filename
[05:45] <[HHS] Dawnwater> Good afternoon. I seem to have a problem. I updated some programs with sudo apt-get and now my X server cant find the nVidia driver anymore. I got this problem earlier and somebody here helped me too. Is there a hotfix for this?
[05:45] <Slyboots> Well, It copies the files over, but it just comes up with a unhelpfull message
[05:46] <Slyboots> "Installer Crashed" "GRub exited with Error code 1"
[05:46] <Jack_Sparrow> don_jr:  yes, but you would need to shrink the one before you could make the other bigger..
[05:46] <gumby600m> WHen I run Totem and goto click on the "Movie" menu, it shows all recently viewed movies... how do I reset/remove videos from this list?  (Ubuntu dapper)
[05:46] <Slyboots> I think it was Errror code 1, Im re-running the installer now to make sure
[05:46] <Mortice> dawnwater: can you tell me the output of lsmod | grep nvidia, please?
[05:46] <hondje> Persistent /home, Jack_Sparrow ?
[05:46] <[HHS] Dawnwater> Mortice, yes be right back
[05:46] <Dr_Willis> Jack_Sparrow,  just edit your fstab and mount the thing.  say to new_home, copy/move  the old home over to it.. then change the fstab to mount it as home
[05:46] <dutch> merch...just found the problem...drop the - in front..
[05:46] <ritateKeku> hi, do you know how to fix this error? http://img437.imageshack.us/img437/2299/p1010164ri2.jpg
[05:47] <Dr_Willis> Jack_Sparrow,  or mount it to 'new_home' move home over to it then use a 'ln -s' soft link to point /home to it
[05:47] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow Okay, I'll give that a shot.
[05:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Dr_Willis: thanks
[05:47] <ritateKeku> it got it when i was trying to run it from DVD
[05:47] <foxiness> Slyboots : is this the update cd ubuntu 6.06-1?
[05:47] <Slyboots> Dapper-Drake
[05:47] <mondo> Hi, I just installed the "nautilus-script-audio-convert" package, but I have no idea how to utilize this. That is, I expected it to appear in the right-click menu, but it doesn't, and I don't know where else to look. Anyone?
[05:47] <merch> dutch, should work either way as long as the options are ordered properly (specifically 'f'). tar -xzvf is the same as tar xzvf
[05:47] <[HHS] Dawnwater> lsmod grep | nvidia results in "
[05:47] <[HHS] Dawnwater> "bash: nvidia not found
[05:47] <Mortice> pip
[05:47] <Mortice> erm
[05:47] <Slyboots> I grabbed it from the Website, so Im assuming its the latest version of itdfdfa
[05:47] <Mortice> sorry
[05:48] <Mortice> [HHS] Dawnwater: the command is sudo lsmod | grep nvidia
[05:48] <foxiness> Slyboots yes but the new verison some thing like windows sp1
[05:48] <Mortice> you had your | in the wrong place :)
[05:48] <dutch> merch, thanks for the help
[05:48] <mikeconcepts2> Is anyone available to test Ekiga with me, I've not used it yet.

[05:48] <Slyboots> Why did I not get the latest version when I downloaded it then?
[05:48] <ritateKeku> Any one can help with this? http://img437.imageshack.us/img437/2299/p1010164ri2.jpg
[05:48] <Mortice> [HHS] Dawnwater: no worries. you can always hit page up in irssi to view previous messages
[05:49] <[HHS] Dawnwater> Mortice, output is none
[05:49] <Mortice> [HHS] Dawnwater: ok, and if you do sudo modprobe nvidia?
[05:49] <weswh-> when ddclient is asking me for the interface used for dynamic dns - it wants something like eth0, right?
[05:49] <[HHS] Dawnwater> "FATAL: Module nVidia not found"

[05:50] <stefg> 7msg
[05:50] <ritateKeku> [HHS] Dawnwater: you are talking to?
[05:50] <Mortice> [HHS] Dawnwater: "module nVidia not found"? Did you type "sudo modprobe nvidia" or "sudo modprobe nVidia"?
[05:50] <Slyboots> Okay

[05:52] <Slyboots> ritateKeku Send your Cd-rom to a shrink
[05:52] <Slyboots> Its confused
[05:52] <Slyboots> Poor thing
[05:52] <ritateKeku> what?
[05:52] <ritateKeku> its TEAC DVD burner
[05:52] <bionoid> I'm pretty sure I saw some demo or other of Compiz with desktops on the bottom/top face of the cube, is my memory failing completely, or is this somehow possible to setup?
[05:53] <mikeconcepts2> would someone give me their sip so I can call? or call me mikeconcepts@ekiga.net
[05:53] <opexoc> I want to get some repos, which allow me to donwload xchat throught the apt-get.
[05:53] <Dr_Willis> ritateKeku,  it always gives that error?

[05:53] <ubotu> xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.6.1-0ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 254 kB, installed size 720 kB
[05:53] <Dr_Willis> xchat is in the normal repos.
[05:53] <jbroome> opexoc: you need universe to get xchat
[05:53] <Mortice> [HHS] Dawnwater: if you go to /lib/linux-restricted-modules/, is there a directory in there matching your kernel version? (check your kernel version with uname -r)
[05:54] <ritateKeku> Dr_Willis: yes.... i am trying to boot it from dvd
[05:54] <ritateKeku> Dr_Willis: LIVE
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> ritateKeku,  tryed booting any other live cd/dvds?
[05:54] <opexoc> jbroome: what does it mean? What should I add to /etc/apt/sources.list?
[05:54] <ritateKeku> Dr_Willis: what you mean by other live dvds?
[05:55] <[HHS] Dawnwater> Mortice, therre is no such directory. =S
[05:55] <jbroome> !pl
[05:55] <ubotu> Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[05:55] <Mortice> [HHS] Dawnwater: looks like the nvidia driver isn't installed then, which would be the root of your problem. :)
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> ritateKeku,  try some OTHER live cd's you got burnt. or burn some. to see if its a dvd issue.. or if its just that single disk thats acting oddly
[05:55] <[HHS] Dawnwater> Mortice, it was installed just two hours ago. I had it up and running but I cant get into x since I ran the update
[05:56] <Mortice> I have to go, but I assume you know how to install it (using Automatix, for example)?
[05:56] <ProN00b> does anyone know how to play flv files ?
[05:56] <[HHS] Dawnwater> Automatix is crap according to the dutch ubuntu channel
[05:56] <mjr> ProN00b, with mplayer from multiverse
[05:56] <[HHS] Dawnwater> but I'll try
[05:56] <Slyboots> well this sucks :(
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> [HHS] Dawnwater,  and this one. :P
[05:56] <opexoc> jbroome: I want yours help.
[05:56] <Slyboots> I thought Ubuntu was suppoed to be easy ;)
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> Slyboots,  i find it every easy
[05:56] <ProN00b> mjr, doesn't work, well, it does, but i can't seek in them
[05:56] <Mortice> [HHS] Dawnwater: well, if it is installed, it's not working. So I suggest you reinstall it, by whatever means. Doesn't have to be Automatix :)
[05:56] <Slyboots> I cant even get it to instal :P
[05:56] <[HHS] Dawnwater> thanks anyway mortice
[05:57] <mjr> ProN00b, I have the same problem, but didn't find a better player for them either; xine had its own problems
[05:57] <stefg> ritateKeku: causes can be: a.) Broken CD/DVD, b.)  the installer tries to enable DMA where it shouldn't, c.) Drive is set to Cable-Select and cable is flaky
[05:57] <ProN00b> mjr, how did xine play them ?
[05:57] <[HHS] Dawnwater> Okay, will do
[05:57] <foxiness> Slyboots are you sure this cd not damage
[05:58] <mjr> ProN00b, usually without audio
[05:58] <Slyboots> yup, I used the same CD to install on this machine
[05:58] <ProN00b> mjr, but it could seek ?
[05:58] <mjr> ProN00b, don't recall
[05:58] <[HHS] Dawnwater> I'll try doing "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx" and see what comes out. I gotta go too
[05:58] <ProN00b> blargh, mjr !
[05:58] <mjr> ProN00b, hmh, what you could try is mplayer -idx foo.flv (can't try it myself now)
[05:58] <mjr> ProN00b, umm, -forceidx that is
[05:59] <mjr> Or well, apparently idx would have a chance too. Ah well.
[05:59] <don_jr> How can I unmount my main partition to resize it?
[05:59] <keithhhh> does ubuntu accept 64bit encryption??
[05:59] <mjr> don_jr, use a live cd
[05:59] <ProN00b> mjr, doesn't work
[06:00] <mjr> keithhhh, your question makes rather little sense as such, but yes
[06:00] <weswh-> does anyone know how i can look at what ddclient is doing, and if it is working?
[06:00] <don_jr> mjr I can try that, but the live CD didn't work well on this box, I had to get the alternate CD to install ubuntu.
[06:00] <choongii> hi. I just installed dapper, but my internal network is messed up. I have two of the same type ee100 cards. eth0 is my internet connection which works fine. I'm doing `ifconfig eth1 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0`, the other pc is 10.0.0.2, but they can't ping eachother
[06:00] <choongii> what am I missing here?
[06:00] <weswh-> it said something about couldn't load gnome frontend...
[06:00] <weswh-> during the install
[06:00] <keithhhh> mjr: I just seemed to be having problems connecting to my router
[06:00] <foxiness> slyboots : did you try to install "ubuntu" over "ubuntu" ?
[06:01] <Slyboots> No, its a clean install..
[06:01] <keithhhh> mjr: in windows I have no probs
[06:01] <mjr> don_jr, well. The alternatives are cumbersome. Perhaps you could try to get the gparted live cd if the ubuntu one has problems?
[06:01] <stefg> Where does Dapper store its script for suspend/hibernate ? It works out of the box on my laptop, only the smbfs mounts stop responding after wakeup. I have to add an unmount for them at suspend and a remount at wakeup, but where?
[06:01] <foxiness> Slyboots then try to download the "text mode" cd may it will fix the problem
[06:02] <don_jr> mjr I can try that, I'll be back in a few if the computer still boots after I'm done here
[06:02] <Slyboots> ffs, Im not made of bandwidth, and how will going into text mode get Grub working exactly?
[06:02] <abhinay> What is the date of final official release of Edgy Eft ?
[06:03] <jbroome> oct 2006
[06:03] <jbroome> oh wow, that's close
[06:03] <choongii> might be worth noting.. in my dmesg, I keep seeing stuff like 'eth1: New link status: AP out of range' and AP in range
[06:03] <choongii> no idea what that is.. anyone?
[06:04] <jbroome> stefg: doh
[06:05] <choongii> erk, doh
[06:07] <stefg> Laptop owners! Nobody with shared folders trouble after wakeup from suspend in here?
[06:08] <LinuxHelp> what's like the "standard" rss reader for gnome? (I'm looking for something that kind of pops up with a small window somewhere as each new post is received)

[06:15] <stefg> Protocol1: fdisk or cfdisk will let you do this
[06:16] <Protocol1> ok...
[06:16] <inesh> mother fucker
[06:16] <stealg> hi what its the new ubuntu ?
[06:16] <inesh> =o

[06:16] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:16] <javier> thanks
[06:16] <inesh> learn speak good englis ass hole
[06:16] <inesh> yeah !
[06:17] <Protocol1> so I would use cfdisk via the installers console?

[06:17] <ubotu> Help! lilo, Keybuk, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee, imbrandon, DBO or gnomefreak!
[06:19] <raj> have a primary mail server available on Internet eg :example.com i have set up a mail server locally to replace the server later right now every mail is delivering to this mail server eg:user@example.com i need to send those mail to origin server what should i do on demo server
[06:19] <Protocol1> wow
[06:19] <stefg> Protocol1: why is this so important? grub doesn't care about the boot-flag, the makeactive command will satisfy win's need for a bootflag
[06:20] <Protocol1> makeactive?
[06:21] <Protocol1> stefg, do I use that in the installer?
[06:21] <stefg> Protocol1: what are you trying to do? Let me know before i assist you in ruining your system :-)
[06:22] <Protocol1> Im trying to boot back into my windows system
[06:22] <Protocol1> and I cant because my boot flag is not turned on
[06:23] <Protocol1> and grub somehow messed with it
[06:23] <lixx> hi
[06:23] <npster> I really need help. Something is wrong with my system!!!
[06:24] <Protocol1> and doing a full or complete restore sounds like something very idiotic for just one little thing
[06:24] <stefg> so what? the entry for grub is 'makeactive' (read the grub howto)... this will do it
[06:24] <stefg> !grub
[06:24] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> gparted can set just the bootflag - or shoudl be able to. or the grub makebootable command (i think thats it)
[06:25] <npster> I haven't seen Ubuntu act like this before. It started overheating the CPU, and it took a wile to even start thinking for shutting down. I need to make a sort of System Restore. How do I do this ?
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> I dident even think the boot flag was important these days
[06:25] <stefg> npster: sounds like acpi-trouble
[06:25] <keithhhh> When I installed ubuntu on my notebook my wifi was off.  Do you think its possible Ubuntu didnt install the drivers for the wifi card?
[06:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[06:25] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi
[06:26] <lixx> i have some problems booting any kind of linux install or live cd
[06:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !wifi > keithhhh
[06:26] <stefg> Where does Dapper store its script for suspend/hibernate ? It works out of the box on my laptop, only the smbfs mounts stop responding after wakeup. I have to add an unmount for them at suspend and a remount at wakeup, but where?
[06:26] <lixx> seems to be my mainboard with intels p965 chipset and ICH8 southbridge
[06:27] <stefg> !boot
[06:27] <ubotu> Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a bootfloppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[06:27] <lixx> has anyone experienced something simliar? or has heard about this?
[06:28] <stefg> SATA-only system sometimes cause trouble
[06:28] <lixx> none of my ide devices are recognized :(
[06:29] <npster> I guess I'll reinstall Ubuntu. Can someone tell me how to get a very very important program now so I can use it after re installation. It is called resolvconf and it is one of the most important programs in Ubuntu!
[06:30] <Dr_Willis> npster,  huh?
[06:30] <ubuntu_> anybody here is familiar with debootstap ???
[06:30] <npster> Dr_Willis: I need to put it on flash
[06:30] <ubuntu_> if yes rise your hand :)
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> npster,  why?
[06:31] <stefg> !info resolvconf
[06:31] <ubotu> resolvconf: nameserver information handler. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.34ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 50 kB, installed size 280 kB
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> stefg,  i dont even have a file NAMED that on my system
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:31] <prg2020> Hi, how can I find out what package contains a particular file (shape.h) ?
[06:31] <npster> Dr_Willis: Search the wiki for Domain Name System. It is my WiKi, explaining something very important
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> npster,  somthing so imporntant you cant even summerize it here...
[06:32] <npster> Dr_Willis: I mean the Ubuntu WiKi but I made the Wiki page for that
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> :)
[06:32] <longwave> npster: are you talking about /etc/resolv.conf? resolvconf is a package that helps manage that, but that and the file are not the same thing
[06:32] <stefg> npster is obviously running a DNS server on his box (for whatever reason :-) ) so let's make him happy
[06:33] <j0nas`> any word on when the latest nvidia drivers will be in the repositories?
[06:33] <keithhhh> hmmm I ran my wifi setup in the previous version of ubuntu with no problem
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> stefg,  i was thinking that resolconf CAUSED more problems for my system..  then it fixed. :P
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> i dont even have it installed on this machine
[06:35] <stefg> That may well be... and i can't imagine why someone on a homebox should run that... but that's npsters roblem, not mine
[06:35] <npster> stefg, longwave, Dr_Willis: It is a bug of some sort and no one takes care of it. Just to download the resolvconf package takes a lot of work, so I REALLY THINK THAT THE NEWEST VERSION SHOULD ALWAYS BE INSTALLED WITH THE ACTUAL UBUNTU CD !!!
[06:35] <Mortice> npster: typing apt-get install resolvconf is a lot of work?
[06:35] <CreativeEmbassy> hey all. wondering if someone can help me with a nvidia problem on a new installation. been trying solutions in the forums and elsewhere for HOURS...
[06:35] <earthian> hey
[06:35] <earthian> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22637
[06:35] <earthian> errors ^
[06:36] <abulyomon> howdy ...
[06:36] <earthian> it is about debootstrap install http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22637
[06:36] <stefg> npster: just write down the IPs of one or two DNS-servers usable for you... write them in /etc/resolv.conf or type them in the network-admin
[06:36] <earthian> errors with udev installation.. seems that udev is searching for some kind of x64 package? :S
[06:36] <earthian> the install is i386 :o
[06:36] <abulyomon> quick question ubuntians ... I'm running xubuntu (xfce4) and most gnome applications get their text big and ugle ... e.g multi-gnome-terminal menu
[06:36] <abulyomon> any idea?
[06:37] <j0nas`> npster: i would recommend putting in the ip of your router as your dns if you are on a home network
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> aint there some gnome-setting service that needs to get loaded.
[06:37] <npster> stefg: I know that THANK YOU. But something deletes them right away, Read the WiKI
[06:37] <earthian> abulyomon: maybe you dont have the gnome fonts? dunno tbh
[06:37] <j0nas`> right... network config deletes them
[06:37] <j0nas`> ... dont use network config ;)
[06:37] <stefg> abulyomon: the Xserver in xfce is set to 72dpi... change that to 96 dpi by configuring gdm to satrt the X-Server with -dpi 96
[06:38] <npster> j0nas1: what?
[06:38] <CreativeEmbassy> apparently I have the drivers installed correctly, because I found a crappy CRT, plugged it into my laptop, and now I can see this
[06:38] <abulyomon> thanks earthian/stefg ... will try
[06:38] <raxip> hello
[06:38] <CreativeEmbassy> can run glxgears and all that, but my laptop lcd is just black
[06:38] <j0nas`> the network-admin tool changes things around in your resolv.conf and interfaces config files
[06:38] <CreativeEmbassy> unless I kill xwindows, then I see the login fine
[06:38] <j0nas`> i would stick to configuring your network settings through the config files, unless you have no idea what youre doing
[06:39] <earthian> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22637 <--- can somebody help me with this debootstrap error?
[06:40] <npster> j0nas`: I know. I ve been researching the problem for a year or so. I have noticed that in Xubuntu and now in Ubuntu. It is real pain in the but and only the resolvconf package solves it. :)
[06:40] <CreativeEmbassy> has anyone read into my problem?
[06:40] <j0nas`> okay... i will take your word for it
[06:40] <CreativeEmbassy> i can provide log files
[06:40] <j0nas`> i got it to work nicely for me thru the config files... to each his own i suppose :)
[06:42] <linux__alien> should i have automake 1.4 , automake 1.7 installed ?
[06:42] <npster> j0nas`: I know, some people, when the problem first arise they told me to do that but it didn't work.
[06:42] <j0nas`> any progress with the latest nvidia drivers? (v8774)
[06:42] <CreativeEmbassy> no, those are the ones I have
[06:42] <CreativeEmbassy> I'm new to ubuntu, kinda new to linux
[06:42] <earthian> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22637 <--- can somebody help me with this debootstrap error?
[06:43] <CreativeEmbassy> desperately trying to escape from winxp, not having much luck :-/
[06:43] <CreativeEmbassy> and I've tried with getting drivers from aptget/synaptic and nvidia.com
[06:43] <npster> Mortice:  go and read carefully here: wiki.ubuntu.com/Domain_Name_Server  is that OK :)
[06:44] <Ballob> i did the most stupidest thing and installed 64 bit ubuntu now i cant even get java or flash working
[06:44] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: nvidia 3d is really easy in ubuntu, but i didn't read you first comment. So waht's the trouble?
[06:45] <CreativeEmbassy> again, it appears to be working fine through my crappy CRT monitor, but I can't get anything on my laptop scd
[06:45] <CreativeEmbassy> erm, lcd
[06:45] <npster> The Hoary Hedther something.... codnename and ubuntu REALLY SUCKS
[06:45] <opexoc> Did anybody install multifunction HP printer on ubuntu?
[06:45] <j0nas`> i like the codenames :)
[06:45] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: what resolution is the LCD?
[06:45] <CreativeEmbassy> i have a fresh install, jsut installed nvidia drivers, and my screen goes black right before xwindows starts up
[06:46] <CreativeEmbassy> uhm
[06:46] <CreativeEmbassy> i usually ran it at 1680, looked sharpest at that resolution
[06:46] <levent> i love ubuntuuuuuuuu
[06:46] <npster> xwindows?
[06:46] <CreativeEmbassy> or is it called xserver now? xorg?
[06:46] <j0nas`> CreativeEmbassy: that is unusual... what does your x server log say?
[06:46] <npster> xorg
[06:46] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: you have a 30" studio-display or what?
[06:46] <opexoc> Can anybody help me to install drivers for my mutlifunction printer?
[06:46] <Ballob> what the heck is wrong with this? automatix says that there is 64 bit java and i installed it but it wont work
[06:47] <CreativeEmbassy> it's either 17" or 19"
[06:47] <earthian> can somebody help me with a debootstrap installation problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22637 (<-- logfile)
[06:47] <j0nas`> ballob: do you have 64bit hardware?
[06:47] <CreativeEmbassy> just a laptop display :-p
[06:47] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: so let's assume 1280x1024 native reso
[06:47] <Ballob> yes ofcouse
[06:47] <CreativeEmbassy> ok
[06:47] <Ballob> i aint that stupid
[06:47] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: are you on linux now ?
[06:48] <CreativeEmbassy> yeah
[06:48] <ryanpg> hi all... is there an easy way to downgrade an installed package?
[06:48] <CreativeEmbassy> i'm on the actual compy
[06:48] <j0nas`> try installing sun-java-1.5.0 from multiverse... it worked for me on quad core opteron 64
[06:48] <Ballob> tell me how to do that please
[06:48] <CreativeEmbassy> i plugged a CRT into the back of my computer, that's how I'm seeing this
[06:48] <j0nas`> sec
[06:49] <Ballob> sudo apt-get....?
[06:49] <earthian> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22637 <--- can somebody help me with this debootstrap error?
[06:49] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: so give these commands: 'sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` nvidia-glx && sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> opexoc,  for my hp1200c i had to install the hplig or some sort of named service.

[06:51] <earthian> please?
[06:51] <j0nas`> Ballob: this should get you started: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava?highlight=%28java%29
[06:51] <CreativeEmbassy> alright, I already have latest versions for both, aaand...
[06:51] <Ballob> okay thanks jonas

[06:51] <CreativeEmbassy> This script cannot proceed automatically.
[06:52] <rc55> Hello - is there any way to enable remote desktop before user login, so I can login remotely using VNC?
[06:52] <Ballob> bye all
[06:52] <stefg> earthian: have you tried a 'sudo apt-get -f install' ?
[06:52] <earthian> its a debootstrap method and not an apt-get
[06:52] <earthian> :S
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> rc55,  thers a way to make a vnc session to spawn when you vnc in. and get the GDM login screen. :P
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> rc55,  ive done it that way.. OR ya can ssh in, start vncserver, then vnc in
[06:53] <stefg> earthian: oh yes, now i notice..
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> rc55,  thses ways do NOT share the curently running (viewable) desktop. they spawn theyr own vnc/desktop session.
[06:53] <nsf> i've installed frostwire via apt-get and now when i try to start it, it doesnt start
[06:53] <stefg> !java
[06:53] <earthian> stefg: i have noticed from that log (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22637) that somewhere dpkg or so is looking for a 64bit package which is no more.. and i try to install there a 32bit linux :S
[06:53] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[06:54] <opexoc> Dr_Willis: Look at this: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-PhotoSmart_C4100 . I have HP Photosmart C4180 so my printer. This text says that it can be installed. I have hplip and hpijs packages... I execute System->Administration->Printing and want to add new printer but there was not such printer as I have... so I downloaded PPD files for this printer and loaded it, but my printer don't want to still working.
[06:54] <Dybber> ubuntu thinks ".sml" should be opened with MPlayer, how can i change it? They should be opened with emacs
[06:54] <rc55> Dr_Willis: how did you acheive the gdm on connection?
[06:54] <stefg> earthian: so you're in the process of converting a 64bit install down to a 32 bit one?
[06:55] <earthian> yes
[06:55] <earthian> i booted with 32bit live cd
[06:55] <stefg> Ouch!
[06:55] <Dr_Willis> rc55,  i had xinetd spawn a vnc server with the right arguments . i followed a wiki page i found on the topic.  It may of been a gentoo wiki page)
[06:55] <earthian> deleted files in /target which is my hdd
[06:55] <Shadowpillar> Dybber: rightclick on it
[06:56] <CreativeEmbassy> well, is there a command to tell me what my monitor's refresh rates are?
[06:56] <Dybber> Shadow i cant change anything at the "Open With" tab
[06:56] <stillunknown> i am curious, was there really a BSOD with that broken update?
[06:56] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: your LCD runs at 60 Hz, as all the LCDs do
[06:56] <PuGz> hey guys. is there a way to install the standard LAMP setup in edgy without using the install cd to do it? I just finished doing the edgy knot2 install, and accidently didnt select to do the lamp install. I am wondering if I can do something like this: sudo aptitude install lamp
[06:56] <cherubiel> Dybber: goto properties
[06:56] <CreativeEmbassy> ok...
[06:56] <CreativeEmbassy> hmm
[06:56] <Borat> Hey guys does anyone know how to make the start button in ubuntu like this http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b96/snewberry1980/Screenshots/September/th_September01a.jpg
[06:57] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: so set your reso to 1280x1024 at 60 Hz... chances are you get a picture then
[06:57] <CreativeEmbassy> ok, and colors? 24?
[06:57] <CreativeEmbassy> 16?
[06:57] <stefg> yup
[06:57] <opexoc> Look at this: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-PhotoSmart_C4100 . I have HP Photosmart C4180 so my printer. This text says that it can be installed. I have hplip and hpijs packages... I execute System->Administration->Printing and want to add new printer but there was not such printer as I have... so I downloaded PPD files for this printer and loaded it, but my printer don't want to still working.
[06:57] <stefg> 24
[06:57] <CreativeEmbassy> ok, i'll give that a shot
[06:58] <stillunknown> Borat: i doubt anyone can read that
[06:58] <PuGz> also - having just done a dist-upgrade in edgy - upstart is WICKED!
[06:58] <Dybber> cherubiel, System -> Properties or what?
[06:58] <Borat> stillunknown: why?
[06:58] <cherubiel> Dybber: rt click on a .sml file and properties
[06:58] <stillunknown> Borat: just open the link
[06:59] <Dybber> cherubiel, yes I did that, again: i cant change anything. Should I be root?
[06:59] <Borat> stillunknown: just copy paste it in your browser.
[07:00] <stillunknown> Borat: the picture has a resolution of 160x128, that's too small
[07:00] <Borat> oops
[07:00] <Borat> lol
[07:00] <Borat> one second
[07:00] <cherubiel> Dybber: you should see an applications tab in the right click properties
[07:00] <CreativeEmbassy> i'm pasting my xorg.conf in pastebin real quick so you can take a look at it
[07:00] <CreativeEmbassy> make sure there isn't something I'm doing that's REALLY stupid
[07:01] <cica> hi guys

[07:01] <cica> has anyone successfully installed the Java Runtime Environment on Ubuntu?
[07:01] <sporkton> wheres the codec for totem to play divx/avi files?

[07:01] <Dybber> cherubiel, im running a danish version, but I got one called (translated) "Open With" - but I cant change anything in that tab
[07:02] <Sivik> what is a good web hosting control panel that they would recommend, cheap is good
[07:02] <another> what's a good post-it notes type program? tomboy crashes on start, and gnome's stick notes arent good enough
[07:02] <cherubiel> Dybber: can you tell me the other options in the menu?
[07:02] <Sivik> another, sticky
[07:02] <CreativeEmbassy> alrighty, restarting
[07:02] <Sivik> another, apt-cache search sticky
[07:03] <PuGz> Borat: you could use Windows Vista ;)
[07:03] <another> Sivik: thanks, i'll try xpad
[07:03] <Sivik> another, haven't used that one
[07:03] <stefg> CreativeEmbassy: your xorg conf looks a bit... sparse. I think the driver is waiting for DPMI info he'll never gets. Change to a console (ctrl-alt-F1), sudo killall gdm and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:03] <Dybber> cherubiel, "general" "rights" "notes" "sound/audio" "badges"
[07:04] <another> Sivik: it's the only one left. tomboy and gnome panel's one are out
[07:04] <PuGz> Borat: more seriously, you just need to get the right gnome theme (icons, controls, window borders)
[07:04] <zero> I'm trying to use a Broadcom 4306 wireless card on ubuntu6.06. I remove and blacklist the previous bcmw4x.inf driver and use ndisgtk to load the new bcmwl5.inf driver. On typing "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper -l" I get "bcmwl5          driver present, hardware present". However it is invisible for either ifconfig or iwconfig. Any idea about that issue?
[07:04] <PuGz> Borat: possibly look at http://art.gnome.org/
[07:04] <Dybber> haha then he leaves
[07:04] <Dybber> :|
[07:04] <Sivik> zero: try doing a ifconfig ethX up
[07:05] <Sivik> zero: and then the light on the wireless button should come on
[07:06] <zero> Sivik: i got this error ethX: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[07:06] <Blinker> how do I access partman?
[07:07] <zero> Sivik: should I have to shut off the wireless button on my laptop when doing so?
[07:07] <jmitchj> Good Day, I am new to ubuntu and am having problem creatinga bootable CD, can anyone help?
[07:08] <sivanicon> I type ifconfig eth1 up (my wireless) it grabs an ip but cant ping anything.  I go into system > networking and deactivate it and then reactivate it and i can ping?
[07:08] <sivanicon> Is ifconfig not the command i should be using?
[07:08] <Blinker> jmitchj: you already installed and use ubuntu?
[07:08] <Blinker> jmitchj: or are you still on windows?
[07:08] <mikeconcepts2> In Ubunti, what is the most common program for computer to computer voice and video?
[07:08] <mikeconcepts2> Y\Ubuntu*
[07:09] <Sivik> zero: the button probably doesn't work when you punch it, mine doesn't
[07:09] <stefg> jmitchj: even if you are on gnome I'd recommend installing k3b. That'll facilitate the more advanced sides of CD burning
[07:09] <hondje> mikeconcepts2: I'm fond of gnome-meeting
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> mikeconcepts,  skype is getting common.. but not sure how it handles video. but its hard to beat being able to call mom for free. :)
[07:10] <jmitchj> still on windows
[07:10] <rc55> Dr_Willis: Thanks for the tip, if I want to close VNCServer, how do I do it without using kill -9?
[07:10] <hondje> s/gnome-meeting/ekiga or whatever it's called now :)
[07:10] <radius> quick question, i upgrade the network cards on my server (6.06) what's the fastest/easiest way to update the nic cards from console?
[07:10] <mikeconcepts2> hondje: Is Ekida gnome-meeting?
[07:10] <hondje> mikeconcepts2: yeah, they renamed it
[07:10] <Blinker> jmitchj: you downloaded the ubuntu iso file?
[07:10] <jmitchj> trying to create a live CD
[07:10] <jmitchj> yes
[07:10] <Blinker> what sw are you using to burn?
[07:11] <opexoc> Does anyone can help me to install multifunction printer driver?
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> rc55,  time to read the vnc docs. :P vncserver -kill (or was it --kill)
[07:11] <jmitchj> i keep getting an error message when burning...i've tried ISO recorder, CD burner pro Xp
[07:11] <stefg> opexoc: make and model?
[07:11] <mikeconcepts2> hondje: Would you mind testing it for me? mikeconcepts@ekiga.net
[07:11] <Blinker> jmitchj: try nero
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> rc55,  'vncserver' is a script - that you may want to read and see how its doing a lot of things.
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> rc55,  its very nifty tool once ya learn all the little bits
[07:12] <opexoc> stefg: HP Photosmart C4180 All-in-One
[07:12] <keithhhh> how can lock apps to the panel (top right panel)
[07:13] <stefg> opexoc: if you are are on ubuntu, hpijs should already be installed... just go to the system menu and choose printers, add new... should be recognized
[07:13] <jmitchj> i'll give it a try
[07:13] <jmitchj> thanks
[07:13] <Blinker> jmitchj: join #blinker for a moment
[07:13] <Blinker> and np
[07:14] <jmitchj> join #blinker
[07:14] <jozzeph> whats wrong with linux and java?
[07:15] <Howitzer> jozzeph, no idea, you tell me? :x
[07:15] <jozzeph> ubuntu 5 works but upgrade lts does for a little time
[07:15] <jozzeph> LTS
[07:15] <opexoc> stefg: I have done so... I ahve hpijs and hplip but when I go to "add new" and i want to add new then there is no my printer... then I try to load my driver manualy. I downaloed some PPD file from http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-PhotoSmart_C4100 , but still can't use this printer.
[07:15] <jozzeph> howitzer
[07:15] <jozzeph> i tried 5 times reinstalling the whole ubuntu
[07:15] <dashriKe> if I am to redownload an Ubuntu ISO, would 6.06 or 6.06.1 be preferable?
[07:16] <Linuturk_code> 6.06.1
[07:16] <Howitzer> always use the latest official one
[07:16] <jozzeph> i downloaded even the lts
[07:16] <keithhhh> what happens if I try and install ubuntu 6.06 overtop of ubuntu 6.06??
[07:16] <alindeman> Hmm, if I do `apt-get remove gaim` it tells me it's going to remove `ubuntu-desktop` ... that doesn't sound safe .. can I just uninstall gaim?
[07:16] <_lupine> keithhhh: not a lot
[07:16] <jozzeph> pff howitzer
[07:17] <stefg> opexoc: hmmm... so far you've done everything right (as far as i can tell) check synaptic if there's any additional gutenprint-drivers or database files available. An check dmesg to see if the USB port is set up correctly
[07:17] <jozzeph> so my problem seems to be i install java with easy ububtu.......
[07:17] <devilz> hi Your graphics card is not in Xgl's database.
[07:17] <devilz> how do i add my graphic card to xgl database
[07:17] <jozzeph> it works for a small laps of time
[07:17] <Shadowpillar> xgl doesn't work with my card
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> because I'm missing an important extension
[07:18] <keithhhh> _lupine: Im having problems with my wifi... I cant access my encrypted wifi singal
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> [OS]  Debian testing/unstable (2.6.15-26-amd64-k8) :: [Uptime]  2 days,  8:02 :: [CPU]  1-AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ @ 1000MHz (512 KB/27% load) - 34.0C/93.2F (fan: 3443 RPM) :: [Memory]  360M Used, 499M Total (28% Free) :: [Video]  nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x]  (1280x1024/24 Bit/75Hz) :: [Disk]  10.55G Used, 73.18G Total (81% Free)

[07:18] <jozzeph> then the problem i cannot insert text in java game
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> d'oh
[07:18] <Shadowpillar> meant to only show the videocard info
[07:18] <jozzeph> see blinking
[07:19] <jozzeph> cannot reach
[07:19] <jozzeph> im a noob
[07:19] <npster> Hi. What is a good machine code C++ complier? With a GUI of course. g++ is too complicated
[07:20] <jozzeph> why do i not can insert text in a java game to submit my account
[07:20] <jozzeph> mayby in the ubuntu guide...
[07:20] <npster> jozzeph: try installing gsfonts and gsfonts-x11 some things such as flash need those to use text
[07:21] <jozzeph> gs fonts
[07:21] <agliodbs> hey, I'm trying to use the GUI installer on the livecd and I can't find anywhere to do SW Raid
[07:21] <npster> jozzeph: just gsfonts and gsfonts-x11, search synaptic for these
[07:21] <jozzeph> ill try to upgrade LTS
[07:21] <_lupine> keithhhh: WEP or WPA? And what card?
[07:21] <_lupine> (/chipset :) )
[07:22] <keithhhh> wep
[07:22] <keithhhh> _lupine: WEP
[07:22] <stefg> agliodbs: that's true... to do sw-raid you either need the alternate CD or set up non-raid and later create a SW-raid and copy over
[07:22] <agliodbs> stefg: ok, thanks, I'll boot the server CD
[07:22] <_lupine> in that case you should just be able to iwconfig <interface> key [s:] <key>
[07:22] <_lupine> s: is if the key is ASCII
[07:22] <keithhhh> _lupine: I was able to connect in the previous version of ubuntu then I did a fresh install of 6.06 and it gave me problems
[07:23] <agliodbs> stefg: server install for Ubuntu still has a ways to go to be competitive with RH/Novell
[07:23] <_lupine> keithhhh: is the interface there?
[07:23] <keithhhh> _lupine: I can access the interface
[07:24] <lupine_85> and does setting the key work?
[07:24] <agliodbs> stefg: I'd imagine that the issues with RAID install are established TODOs?
[07:24] <lupine_85> (^ as up there ^)
[07:24] <antox> why can it be so, that no settings for a network printer are available (I mean System->Administration->Printing)? when installed locally, everything is ok.
[07:24] <stefg> agliodbs: ubuntu is worlds most usable desktop distro.. :-) that's fine , for a start. you know that ubuntu means " I can't configure Debain" in Zulu, don't you?
[07:25] <lupine_85> stefg: I thought it meant "Too smart to use SuSE" ? ;)
[07:25] <agliodbs> stefg: heh
[07:25] <stefg> some people say it's "I'm tired of compiling Gentoo"
[07:26] <agliodbs> stefg: yeah, our HW tech wanted me to use it rather than SuSE on the server though
[07:26] <agliodbs> stefg: I'll have to disappoint him
[07:26] <mcdonaldsguy> I read somewhere that you can get initramfs to leave the initial boot image mounted by leaving a directory called /initramfs or something like that... does anybody know what that directory is supposed to be named?
[07:27] <stefg> agliodbs: use an alternate CD... and _know_ how to use it :-)
[07:27] <shuveb|home> hi, im running Dapper from a SATA drive. I have a Pentium D CPU on a Intel D101 motherboard. Accessing IDE - either CDROM or another HDD I have installed, freezes the system predictably. Is this a known issue?
[07:28] <keithhhh> lupine_85: do you think reinstalling linux will help?
[07:28] <AngryElf> hey all, i'm having a problem setting up proftp -- my client (windows, smartFTP) says it connects but times out on the command LIST -aL.....any ideas?
[07:28] <keithhhh> lupine_85: with the wifi on
[07:28] <antox> Is it normal, that a network printer can't be configured through System->Administration->Printing?
[07:29] <antox> there are no settings concerning print out mode :/
[07:29] <agliodbs> stefg: thanks, I've tried the partitioner on the alternate CD.  It's back to SuSE for me.
[07:30] <stefg> agliodbs: have fun fighting YAST.. :-)
[07:31] <agliodbs> stefg: YaST is actualy the best part of SuSE.  SuSE's problems are elsewhere (like the lack of current RPMs)
[07:31] <asoka123> I am getting this error Error occurred during initialization of VM

[07:32] <AlexC> Hey guys,
[07:32] <asoka123> hey AlexC
[07:32] <bionoid> Something really freaky happened to my X - I set up with compiz/xgl and everything has been working fine, I booted the computer a few hours ago, no problems. However, I took a trip to windows-land to get some info from Outlook, and now gdm hangs on boot. Doesn't load background, just the boring gray thingie with a (working) mouse pointer, and it stays there until days end. No configuration changes, no hardware added,.. Nothing useful in logs. It doesn't con

[07:33] <don_jr> I just installed ubuntu on a fresh wiped HD.  Everything went fine durring install, but when it rebooted it hangs after the first loading sequence.
[07:34] <asoka123> jozzeph can u help me with this JVM error: java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError
[07:34] <stefg> don_jr: waht does the screen message say when it hangs
[07:34] <jozzeph> when installing ubuntu 5 java with easy ubuntu works fine
[07:34] <jozzeph> asoka no sry
[07:35] <don_jr> stefg nothing, the first ubuntu splash comes up with loading drivers and mounting file system, then it goes to a black screen with a non blinking cursor.
[07:35] <keithhhh> stefg: how would I make an image of windows?  Can I make an image of my current windows setup?
[07:35] <J_P> Hey so need I use ubuntu 64 for Pentium D ?
[07:35] <npster> I have a problem. On my page I have put a <embed ..... /> tag to play a welcome sound. In mozilla in Ubuntu the sound doesn't work and in Mac and Win that works. How do i change that. It says that additional plugins are required. HELP
[07:35] <jozzeph> should i install ubuntu without any upgrades
[07:35] <Linuturk_code> J_P if it is a 64-bit processor, you and try it. 32 bit will run on it as well though
[07:36] <stefg> don_jr: could be trouble with the optical drives... what mobo and CPU?
[07:36] <J_P> Linuturk_code: that pentium D is EMT64, so what you recommend to do ?
[07:36] <jozzeph> java works but i cant insert text in game
[07:36] <npster> jozzeph: do as I told you before !!!
[07:37] <jozzeph> its difficult npster
[07:37] <Linuturk_code> J_P, unless you are doing some serious video encoding, use the 32-bit for now
[07:37] <don_jr> stefg it was running fine before...what's a mobo? and cpu is a p3 700mghz.  I remember it doing something like this before.  How can I change the vid drivers to vesa if they are not?
[07:37] <jozzeph> im not so good with ubuntu
[07:37] <robokop> in my laptop i have an integrated webcam, but i can't get it to work
[07:37] <someusernoob> hello
[07:37] <npster> jozzeph: difficult to look a bit in synaptic
[07:37] <J_P> Linuturk_code: ok
[07:37] <jozzeph> tell again pls npster
[07:38] <luu> oy.. if i am to make a permanent alias, as in one that doesnt go away once i close down the terminal window, then where do i put it?
[07:38] <jozzeph> what kind of fonts
[07:38] <J_P> Linuturk_code: or is better use ubuntu 32 bits and only kernel emt64 ?
[07:38] <stefg> don_jr: mobo ist an abbrev. for motherboard... tried booting without 'quiet splash'? That could give you more info
[07:38] <jpriest> Is not the "Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Backports (Binary)" Repository, the place for "mplayer"?  A search for mplayer turns up only kmplayer, not mplayer itself.
[07:38] <jozzeph> what kind of fonts npster?
[07:38] <Linuturk_code> J_P, can't do that. well, it's harder to do that. stick with the 32-bit
[07:39] <jozzeph> g fonts you said?
[07:39] <npster> jozzeph: do this. open terminal. write sudo apt-get install gsfonts
[07:39] <jozzeph> what's g fonts?
[07:39] <jozzeph> ok
[07:39] <don_jr> stefg How do I boot without that?  And I don't remember the exact board numbers, ist's a del 815eed or something similar.  I'm using an NVidia video card, I think that's part of it, but not sure.  How do I tell what video is being used and again, what is the quiet splash and how do I remove it?
[07:39] <npster> jozzeph: input your password and wait
[07:39] <J_P> Linuturk_code: But if I use 32 bits in taht emt64 I'm lost power taht CPU right ?
[07:40] <npster> jozzeph: just do as I tell you ok. It is not contagious
[07:40] <earthian> \o/ debootstrap does not return errors now :D
[07:40] <jozzeph> its already the newest fonts npster
[07:40] <Linuturk_code> J_P, it's not noticable. I had a 64bit processor, and I used 32 bit. The only time you'll notice is if you are encoding a movie
[07:40] <jozzeph> my java works
[07:40] <earthian> !info xubuntu_base

[07:42] <jozzeph> newest
[07:42] <don_jr> stefg should I try the quiet splash removal and see if that helps?
[07:42] <npster> jozzeph: I have nothing else to tell you, reinstall java
[07:42] <jozzeph> how can i whisper here?
[07:43] <sasser> hi!
[07:43] <stefg> don_jr: so you are on the troubled system now? Then give 'dmesg' to get more info
[07:43] <earthian> hey
[07:43] <jozzeph> pfff
[07:43] <robokop> in my laptop i have an integrated webcam, but i can't get it to work
[07:43] <don_jr> stefg How do I get to my terminal from within irssi? or do I have to leave and come back?
[07:43] <earthian> i want to install now a 32bit linux on my amd64 opteron workstation
[07:43] <earthian> what kernel i should best choose?
[07:43] <jozzeph> seems stupid
[07:44] <gnomefreak> earthian: 686 IMHO
[07:44] <jozzeph> why does my java doesnt work
[07:44] <earthian> opterons like all other amd63 processors are x86_64 capable
[07:44] <cogitatus> hey, what's it mean when, say, synaptic is trying to download a package and instead of "done" or "failed" it just says "hit"?
[07:44] <earthian> hm
[07:44] <stefg> don_jr: change to a another console by [ctrl-alt-f2]  and get back witch [ctrl-alt-f1] 
[07:44] <lupine_85> keithhhh: sorry - been away. Doesn't matter whether the wifi is on or off. Set the key and ESSID, then do a scan (as root/sudo).
[07:44] <jozzeph> can anyone tell me hoe to install java on ubuntu newest release 6.06 LTS?
[07:44] <lupine_85> earthian: theoretically the k7 kernel would give you the best perfoemance
[07:45] <earthian> and how much (%) speed/power i will loose by installing a kernel that is not built for my cpu?
[07:45] <earthian> hmmm
[07:45] <don_jr> stefg ctrl-alt-f2 takes me to a black screen with a blinking cursor, when I type it doesn't show up
[07:45] <earthian> interesting
[07:45] <earthian> k7 or 686 :S
[07:45] <don_jr> quit
[07:45] <jozzeph> i want to play runescape
[07:45] <don_jr> say I'll leave here and come back with it.
[07:45] <luu> if i am to make a permanent alias, as in one that doesnt go away once i close down the terminal window, then where do i put it?
[07:46] <robokop> in my laptop i have an integrated webcam, but i can't get it to work, could sb help me with it
[07:46] <jozzeph> solution: dont upgrade ubuntu
[07:46] <jozzeph> ...
[07:47] <gnomefreak> jozzeph: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[07:47] <don_jr> stefg Okay, dmesg shows alot...is there a way I can copy/paste it into the spam channel for someone to look over?
[07:47] <jozzeph> ok gnome
[07:47] <devilz> does anyone know how to enable xgl into video card
[07:48] <jozzeph> it sais its already the newest gnome
[07:48] <jozzeph> gnomefrerak
[07:48] <earthian> question regarding the kernel version: what about from the wine point of view?
[07:48] <stefg> don_jr: I don't know how that works in irssi, but you could use #flood to paste it (inthe absence of a gui)
[07:48] <jozzeph> ill try to run the game
[07:48] <bcarr> i have a hp zv6000 notebook and cant get wireless to work and cant find how to get wpa working or even listed in the network dialog.  Ive tried a couple tutorials from the forums but nothing seems to work.
[07:48] <don_jr> stefg Okay I've got to figure out how to copy it in the first place to paste it there.
[07:48] <keithhhh> lupine_85: its strage I put my wep key as 1234567890 then when I try to connect to it, it doesnt even show a lock near the ESSID
[07:49] <gnomefreak> jozzeph: did you run sudo update-alternatives --config java?
[07:49] <jozzeph> ok it works
[07:49] <lupine_85> keithhhh: don't use the GUI. Use the terminal
[07:49] <jozzeph> tx a lot
[07:49] <wirelain> .
[07:49] <keithhhh> lupine_85: I dont know how :(
[07:49] <jozzeph> it works
[07:50] <lupine_85> very simple - open it up (Accessories->Terminal, I'd imagine) then type "sudo iwconfig <interface> key <key>" -- replacing <*> with the appropriate terms.
[07:50] <wirelain> I tried to add icecast as a startup command from the sessions gui ... but have been tol tht making it a service is the way ... which gui does that?
[07:50] <lupine_85> it'll prompt you for your password, which you add...
[07:50] <robokop> in my laptop i have an integrated webcam, but i can't get it to work, could sb help me with it
[07:50] <don_jr> Can anyone tell me how to run dmesg from within irsi so it will print the material shown here?(I'll go to #flood to do it)
[07:50] <keithhhh> lupine_85: ok so sudo iwconfig key 1234567890??
[07:51] <HBK> aww yeahh! i'm on ubuntu woohoo
[07:51] <robokop> keithhhh: and your interface
[07:51] <lupine_85> keithhhh: you need the interface name as well
[07:51] <lupine_85> e.g. rausb0, wlan0, eth1...
[07:51] <HBK> installed all the nvidia display drivers etc.
[07:51] <keithhhh> lupine_85: what is the interface name?
[07:51] <CoOlGhOsT> which packages to install for developing gtk stuff?
[07:51] <lupine_85> ...I don't know
[07:51] <lupine_85> run iwconfig to see a list of available ones
[07:52] <stefg> don_jr: another idea would be to run a Live-CD, that would tell if it's hardware or software related
[07:52] <BrokenPipe> Is there a way to setup Synaptic Package Manager to get the latest beta Firefox?
[07:52] <keithhhh> lupine_85: do you mean the network name?
[07:52] <earthian> is there any way to install both linux-amd64-k8 and linux-k7 in the same place?
[07:52] <stefg> don_jr: got a 'Desktop-CD' at hand?
[07:52] <lost_soul> problem with ssl+eggdrop fully explained http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249143&highlight=eggdrop responses appreciated
[07:52] <lupine_85> no, the interface name
[07:52] <lupine_85> e.g. you run "iwconfig" in the terminal...
[07:53] <earthian> smth like i had amd64-generic and amd64-k8 :S
[07:53] <don_jr> stefg I may try that.  I had ubuntu dual booted with windows, liked ubuntu so I wiped the entire drive and installed ubuntu again.  It was running fine before....  I may have the CD but I couldn't use it to install I had to get the alternate CD..I'll try it though if I can't figure out what else to do.
[07:53] <lupine_85> ...it says something like "rausb0    RT2500USB WLAN  ESSID:"lupine""
[07:53] <lupine_85> rausb0 is my interface
[07:53] <ubuntux1> can anyone tell me when Ubuntu 6.06.2 will release?
[07:53] <keithhhh> lupine_85:  in that example which is the interface name?
[07:53] <npster> why
[07:53] <lupine_85> ^ rausb0 ^
[07:54] <npster> ubuntu 6.06 LTS is the best
[07:54] <stefg> don_jr: try to boot the Live-CD... you will (hopefully) be able to connect to here with gaim and inspect the system on hd. That would help a lot
[07:56] <keithhhh> lupine_85: this will drive me batty I bet
[07:56] <lupine_85> probably. WLAN is like that :)
[07:57] <keithhhh> lupine_85: bugs me that it worked no problem in 5.10
[07:57] <Toaster54> hi
[07:57] <lupine_85> incidentally, if I could draw all wlan-users' attention to http://sourceforge.net/projects/wlan-magick/ - thanks :)
[07:57] <lupine_85> keithhhh: so have you ran the command?
[07:57] <keithhhh> lupine_85: I dont fully understand still
[07:58] <lupine_85> keithhhh: run "iwconfig" and pastebin the output
[07:58] <lupine_85> we'll go from there
[07:58] <lupine_85> !pastebin
[07:58] <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)
[07:58] <Znortfl> Hello people. I have a problem here. After I updated via synaptic, my X server complains it cant start, and I crash onto command line. Does anybody have a suggestion to restore the X defaults so I can use my graphical enviroment again?
[07:58] <ubuntux1> can anyone plzzzzzzzzz tell me when Ubuntu 6.06.2 is scheduled to release?
[07:58] <Toaster54> znort, try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg in command line
[07:58] <Lemino> anyone who knows how to configure the gnome-system-monitor so you can se the %mem?
[07:59] <keithhhh> lupine_85: ok I ran iwconfig
[07:59] <Znortfl> thank you Toaster54
[07:59] <keithhhh> lupine_85: then what?
[07:59] <Toaster54> no problem, you might have to try around a bit with the configs, but sooner or later itll work ;)
[07:59] <lupine_85> ...then you pastebin the output of the command so that I can see it...
[07:59] <Toaster54> is anyone here using the latest kernel from kernel.org with ubuntu?
[08:00] <J_P> Linuturk_code: thanks! :-)
[08:00] <lupine_85> Toaster54: 2.6.17.9 here
[08:00] <stefg> Znortfl: you get a blue screen and a question if you want to see the error-log. Please see that to find out _why_ your xserver isn't starting anymore.
[08:00] <Toaster54> ah cool
[08:00] <lupine_85> (Not sure if that's the latest any more)
[08:00] <Toaster54> no it isnt ;)
[08:00] <lupine_85> Works well, and no annoying uSplash either :)
[08:00] <HeboR> i just wanna anounce that ubuntu maybe got an new sub project, "Fluxubuntu" delivered with mostly the same software as xubuntu exept it uses the window manager Fluxbox, http://fluxbuntu.org/
[08:00] <Toaster54> .11 is the newest ;)
[08:00] <Toaster54> was sthere anything special when you installed it?
[08:00] <lupine_85> eh, well I can't be bothered to upgrade it for that
[08:00] <HeboR> *fluxbuntu
[08:00] <Toaster54> anything i need to know?
[08:00] <lupine_85> not really - it works well
[08:01] <Toaster54> ah cool
[08:01] <Howitzer> aaargh, another ubuntu fork :'(
[08:01] <Toaster54> i just compiled and installed it too :D
[08:01] <Toaster54> my first kernel-compile :D
[08:01] <Howitzer> c'mon, don't overdo it
[08:01] <Toaster54> ubuntu fork?
[08:01] <ubuntux1> can anyone plzzzzzzzzz tell me when Ubuntu 6.06.2 is scheduled to release?
[08:01] <stefg> Howitzer: it's not a fork... it's just a flavor
[08:01] <Howitzer> and fluxubuntu isn't a good name tbh, name is flubuntu :D
[08:01] <Toaster54> i dont know a release date
[08:01] <lupine_85> Howitzer: that's the beauty of FOSS
[08:01] <lupine_85> the more the merrier, I say :)
[08:01] <Toaster54> i guess it will take a few months more @ ubuntux1
[08:02] <HeboR> Howitser: more like fluxbuntu, mispelling
[08:02] <Znortfl> stefg, yes I have seen that error log. It complains about my nVidia driver. I dont remember the exact error anymore gimme a moment
[08:02] <keithhhh> lupine_85: so in the pastebin do I use your user name?
[08:02] <ubuntux1> Toaster54: :(
[08:02] <Znortfl> stefg, yes here it is : "FATAL: nvidia module not found"
[08:02] <markrian> ubuntux1: why do you want to know when 6.06.2 will be released?
[08:03] <lupine_85> keithhhh: it doesn't matter. Just hit submit and post the link here
[08:03] <earthian> ONE MORE question: is kernel-k7 capable for dual CPU box ???
[08:03] <markrian> ubuntux1: 6.10 is scheduled for October 2006
[08:03] <earthian> erm
[08:03] <stefg> Znortfl: maybe you missed the restricted-modules package for the new kernel... sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[08:03] <earthian> kernel linux-k7*
[08:03] <keithhhh> lupine_85: ok sending
[08:03] <Znortfl> stefg, will try be right back
[08:03] <CoOlGhOsT> anyone use eclipse to develop gtk stuff?
[08:03] <lupine_85> earthian: you need k7-smp I would have though
[08:03] <Toaster54> earthian, there is a special k7 kernel with support for dual cpus
[08:03] <lupine_85> ...t
[08:03] <Toaster54> yea thats what i mean :D
[08:03] <earthian> what is the name?
[08:03] <Toaster54> k7-smp ;)
[08:04] <earthian> coz i dont find apt-get install linux-k7-smp :S
[08:04] <markrian> linux-k7-smp
[08:04] <earthian> oh
[08:04] <Toaster54> try searching for k7-smp in synaptic
[08:04] <earthian> nvm
[08:04] <earthian> found
[08:04] <keithhhh> lupine_85: thanks so much by the way  ;)
[08:04] <lupine_85> np
[08:04] <Marlun> How can I change my resolution? I should have 1680x1050 but the only option in the System > Preferences > Screen Resolution is 640x480.
[08:04] <ofer> how do I mount usb wireless card?
[08:04] <ubuntux1> markrian: if it were releasing sooner...i could have downloaded that at my university instead of 6.06.1...
[08:04] <don_jr> stefg I can't find my live CD.  How can I look at what vid drivers ubuntu is using?
[08:04] <markrian> ubuntux1: What's wrong with 6.06.1?
[08:05] <Toaster54> how far does the kernel k7 differ to a 686 or 386 kernel? i mean, what do i have to know when i compile the kernel myself to make it a k7 kernel?
[08:05] <Jack_Sparrow> Hey don_jr You are back... not to much trouble I hope
[08:05] <markrian> ubuntux1: the 6.06 release will be supported for 3 years
[08:05] <stefg> don_jr: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | more
[08:05] <ubuntux1> markrian: nothin...but 6.06.2 is better than 6.06.1 rite? :(
[08:05] <Znortfl> stefg, I may sound very newbish here, but it says it cant find "linux-restricted-modules-'uname -r'"
[08:05] <markrian> ubuntux1: yes, but you're missing the point
[08:06] <lupine_85> Znortfl: it's a backtick - ` not a quote - '
[08:06] <don_jr> Jack_Sparrow I ended up having to reformat and reinstall ubuntu, now I can't get it to run right.  after the first splash screen with all the loading messages, I get to a black screen with a non blinking cursor.
[08:06] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntux1:  Newer, not necessarilly better
[08:06] <Znortfl> ah thanks lupine
[08:06] <stefg> Znortfl: that's backticks ` not high commas '
[08:06] <markrian> ubuntux1: Ubuntu stays up-to-date
[08:06] <lupine_85> just to the left of your '1' key, on normal keyboards
[08:06] <xnszxdotnet> so what is up with this flux/ubuntu?
[08:06] <markrian> ubuntux1: you don't need to download new versions as long as you keep packages up to date, which is easily done
[08:07] <Linuturk_code> xnszxdotnet, #fluxbuntu
[08:07] <keithhhh> lupine_85: ah do you want the URL of the pastebin?
[08:07] <don_jr> stefg I'll check the xorg.conf in a moment, ctrl-alt-f2 will not allow me to getinto a second terminal in recovery mode.
[08:07] <xnszxdotnet> thanx
[08:07] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, think of it as a snapshot release
[08:07] <lupine_85> keithhhh: yes
[08:07] <keithhhh> lupine_85: this is a cool little webapp
[08:07] <keithhhh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22643
[08:07] <bcarr> don_jr: I had that problem also.  I ended up doing a custom partition and that fixed it.
[08:07] <Znortfl> Hey people, I am in X now. Thanks lupine, stefg and Toaster. I really gotta love this community =)
[08:08] <Howitzer> on second thought, HeboR it's a damn cool initiative
[08:08] <Toaster54> np ;)
[08:08] <don_jr> bcarr a custom partition? you mean don't use the entire drive for it?
[08:08] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, "this is what everyone was running on date foo that used 'sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade' regularly"
[08:08] <ubuntux1> i havent been able to nstall ubuntu yet:( http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249294
[08:08] <lupine_85> keithhhh: you are connected to a wireless network. So all you should have to do is give it your key
[08:08] <lupine_85> sudo iwconfig ath0 key <key>
[08:09] <TheGateKeeper> markrian: when you say "6.06 release will be supported for 3 years", does that mean when Firefox and other apps come out with a new release 6.06 will get the upgrade, or do you mean it just get security fixes for 3 years?
[08:09] <ubuntux1> markrian: and my connection is slow.....so i never use updates
[08:09] <bcarr> don_jr:  exactly.   basicly set up each of the partitions with the manual method.
[08:09] <lupine_85> TheGateKeeper: security fixes
[08:09] <lupine_85> 5 years for server install
[08:09] <eyequeue> TheGateKeeper, it will have critical/serurity patches backported, and commercial support will be available
[08:09] <keithhhh> ok Ill try now
[08:09] <don_jr> bcarr I may have to try that.  I had a completely unformated, no partitioned wiped clean HD that I installed on.....maybe have to do that.
[08:09] <keithhhh> lupine_85: ill try now so Ill unplug my lan
[08:10] <don_jr> Gotta go for now, will try later
[08:10] <keithhhh> lupine_85: be back in a moment
[08:10] <markrian> ubuntux1: I see. So how do you download a whole CD?
[08:10] <bcarr> don_jr I think the old installation was leaving something behind in the 0 sector of the hd.  only thing I could think of that would cuase it.
[08:10] <TheGateKeeper> lupine_85: eyequeue had a nasty feeling you would say that
[08:10] <Jimmey> How can I get some information about the AGP slot that's on my motherboard? I want to buy a new graphics card, and I want to know if it'll work
[08:11] <ubuntux1> markrian: my college has a high-speed connection at few pcs...i use that
[08:11] <markrian> TheGateKeeper: Security fixes - though any point releases for Firefox (like 1.5.0.10, if and when it comes out) will likely be uploaded to 6.06 because that's the easiest way to do it
[08:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Jimmey: are you trying to find out if you have agp1,2 or 3
[08:11] <markrian> Rather than backport the security fixes
[08:11] <ubuntux1> markrian: or ask a frnd to do it
[08:11] <Jimmey> Jack_Sparrow, that kind of thing
[08:11] <eyequeue> TheGateKeeper, available from canonical, that is.  someone else of course could accept monry to support it in 20 years, heh
[08:11] <eyequeue> money
[08:11] <TheGateKeeper> eyequeue: :-)
[08:12] <Jimmey> Jack_Sparrow, it says AGP 8x, I don't even know what that means XoD
[08:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Jimmey: k Let me see if I can find the artice I wrote a year or two ago..  Dont want to do that from memory
[08:12] <markrian> ubuntux1: in that case there's little point getting a whole new CD every time there's a point release. Unless 6.06.1 is causing problems for you, don't bother upgrading
[08:12] <bcarr> don_jr also try using reiser instead of ext3 for the format.
[08:12] <robert_> I can't seem to get ssl(apache 2.x) on ubuntu working properly
[08:12] <eyequeue> TheGateKeeper, add the dapper-backports repo to your sources.list though :)
[08:12] <earthian> bcarr: why reiser and not ext3?
[08:12] <Schlumpf-> hi im trying to install a driver. the readme tells me to install into a directory which i do not have. My frend tells me to install the kernel then i could copy it into the directory. my problem is that looking for kernels i only found numerous changelogs.
[08:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Jimmey: SO what is the question.. you know it is 8x so it looks like agp v2 x8
[08:13] <bcarr> works better for me for some reason.
[08:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Jimmey: 1.5 volts
[08:13] <ubuntux1> markrian: i was hoping the install issues would get resolved in next point release..
[08:13] <earthian> i saw in somekind of wiki that there is no real difference?
[08:13] <Jimmey> Jack_Sparrow, I don't know anything about it, other than it's brown, and AGP. Probably.
[08:13] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, what install issues are you experiencing?
[08:13] <bcarr> ive heard the same but it my experience with SUSE taught me to avoid ext3
[08:14] <Jimmey> Why avoid ext3?
[08:14] <bcarr> just caused problems for me
[08:14] <markrian> ubuntux1: Oh I see, you've not managed to install Ubuntu yet?
[08:14] <stefg> ubuntux1: as far as i can tell the only problem is your video adapter not being autodetected. What graphics card do you have?
[08:14] <eyequeue> Schlumpf-, what are you looking for, the kernel's source code?  sudo apt-get install linux-source-2.6.15
[08:14] <Marlun> How do I add resolutions to the screen resolution preference dialog? Right now I'm stuck at a very low resolution and theres no higher to choose from.
[08:14] <markrian> ubuntux1: If you downloaded the 6.06.1 desktop CD, and couldn't install from that, you might have more luck with the 'alternate' CD.
[08:15] <TheGateKeeper> eyequeue: markrian I have recently been looking at a couple of other distro's to see if it was possible to keep software up to date to some extent without necessarily having this six month upgrade cycle, I am not entirely sure I trust the upgrades and I am not too keen on the idea of a fresh install every six months
[08:15] <stefg> !fixres > Marlun
[08:15] <ubuntux1> i havent been able to nstall ubuntu yet:( http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249294
[08:15] <markrian> TheGateKeeper: there's no reason for you to upgrade every 6 months
[08:15] <Marlun> stefg: thanks!
[08:16] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, another reson to use the alternatecd: there is much less downloading afterward, there is no need to load it with the live stuff, hence more packages fit on the cd itself for installation
[08:16] <markrian> TheGateKeeper: you can stick with dapper for as long as 3 years - except the latest and greatest software won't be (easily) available to you
[08:16] <stefg> ubuntux1: how about answering questions instead of repeating the question over and over?
[08:16] <Jimmey> Marlun, dpkg-reconfigure xerver-xorg
[08:16] <keithhhh> lupine_85: great thanks
[08:16] <g-nome> hello, how can i forbid access to other HOME folders which are not their for each user
[08:16] <lupine_85> is it working?
[08:16] <keithhhh> lupine_85: not sure why it worked
[08:16] <lupine_85> because you gave it the key you needed :)
[08:17] <ubuntux1> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249294 this link will answer all ur questions
[08:17] <keithhhh> lupine_85:  ya seemed like the graphical interface doesnt save the key
[08:17] <eyequeue> TheGateKeeper, with dapper, it has LTS, so no need ... but upgrade-in-place rather than new install is working for a few releases now, i'm not sure you should fear it
[08:17] <lupine_85> to make it permanent, edit /etc/network/interface and add the line "wireless-key <key>" after the line "iface ath0 inet dhcp"
[08:18] <Redman276> does anyone have experience with ATI and tvout in ubuntu ?
[08:18] <eyequeue> "ur" was an ancient civilization
[08:18] <lupine_85>  erm, /etc/network/interfaces ...
[08:18] <keithhhh> lupine_85: hate to say but I find 6.06 interface a bit buggy
[08:18] <minerale> ok, this may be a stupid question, but how di I set PATH in gnome? I'm at a university computer and need to run eclipse using a specific jdk in my home directory, and I'm click the icon it does not work, I could launch it from the command line, but I'm looking for a solution that'll work each time
[08:18] <robert_> I get, "httpd: Syntax error on line 433 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 25 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd-secure.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_ssl.so into server: /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_ssl.so: undefined symbol: ssl_cmd_SSLMutex" upon trying to restart apache2 (hand-compiled version)
[08:18] <stefg> ubuntux1: no it does not answer the really important question: What video hardware do you have ??
[08:18] <g-nome> hello, how can i forbid access to other HOME folders which are not their for each user
[08:18] <lupine_85> keithhhh: it's a piece of something-I-shouldn't-say :)
[08:19] <g-nome> minerale: you could make a bash to double click on
[08:19] <lupine_85> g-nome: change the permissions of the folders
[08:19] <keithhhh> lupine_85: ok I saved all the info ya gave me thanks soooo much
[08:19] <lupine_85> np :)
[08:19] <robert_> g-nome: chmod 711 /home, and 711 each of the home directories
[08:19] <lupine_85> why not 770 ? :)
[08:19] <ubuntux1> stefg: Intel card
[08:19] <eyequeue> g-nome, sudo chmod 750 /home/*
[08:19] <TheGateKeeper> eyequeue: on my test box I had breezy, used the update-manager which seemed to do the best job but it disabled my ethernet card. I managed to re-enable it without too much difficulty, but it's things like that, that I don't like
[08:20] <Jimmey> Another problem I'm having is with hard drives - When the Ubuntu's on the primary drive in the computer, Windows doesn't boot, when I switch the drives so Windows is the primary drive, nothing boots. How can I resolve this?
[08:20] <g-nome> rover_ is there any site where all the the "chmod ***" are explained?
[08:20] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntux1: Even in that link you didnt bother to say what your drives and partition configuration is?
[08:20] <keithhhh> lupine_85: well I only say that because 5.10 was solid.  6.06 gnome seems to be a bit buggy...some parts when I mouse over a button it doesnt mouse over right
[08:20] <g-nome> robert_ is there any site where all the the "chmod ***" are explained?
[08:21] <robert_> not to my knowledge
[08:21] <lupine_85> man chmod :D
[08:21] <eyequeue> g-nome, the "site" is your machine, type "man chmod"
[08:21] <robert_> he asked for a website :P
[08:21] <lupine_85> chmod o-rwx <dirname> does the trick also
[08:21] <keithhhh> lupine_85: could i ask ya one other thing that has bugged me?
[08:21] <lupine_85> sure
[08:21] <eyequeue> robert_, man pages are installed with ubuntu
[08:21] <ubuntux1> Jack_Sparrow: i didnt know that it mattered a lot.....2 IDE drives...hda & hdb...with hdb for linux...but i dont think that its causing the problem
[08:22] <keithhhh> lupine_85: is there anyway to run windows xp in ubuntu but what I mean is run my current windows xp partition in ubuntu
[08:22] <robert_> g-nome: I'd try searching on google if you're still in the dark
[08:22] <keithhhh> ?
[08:22] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntux1: What is on your first drive
[08:22] <robert_> eyequeue: I know that
[08:22] <lupine_85> keithhhh: you want QEMU
[08:22] <ubuntux1> Jack_Sparrow: XP
[08:22] <lupine_85> It's a pain to set up, and even more painfully slow, though
[08:22] <robert_> anyway, I get, "httpd: Syntax error on line 433 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 25 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd-secure.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_ssl.so into server: /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_ssl.so: undefined symbol: ssl_cmd_SSLMutex" upon trying to restart apache2+mod_ssl (hand-compiled version)

[08:23] <robert_> because, I have special needs

[08:23] <robert_> I need both mod_php4 and mod_php5 working

[08:25] <daveb> after suspend to ram
[08:25] <stefg> ubuntux1: As far as i can see Ubuntu will install on your box, but leave you with a command line interface after installation. That's no big deal if you aren't afraid of the command line. All you have to do is enter 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and then choose the intel driver in the process. then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart and you're done
[08:25] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, start from the server install then
[08:26] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, then sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop
[08:26] <ubuntux1> stefg: no it gives me grub error
[08:26] <ubuntux1> eyequeue: thx...but can it be done offline using CD as ive slow net/.
[08:26] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, start from the server install then <-- from the servercd
[08:27] <ubuntux1> eyequeue: but ive slow connection
[08:27] <stefg> ubuntux1: ok, then it might be your partition tabel is screwed, or you have an unusual harddisk configuration. Did you use partition maguc?
[08:27] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntux1: did you post your grub menu.lst anywhere?
[08:27] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, so?  aren't you the one who wants to d/l things as a cd?
[08:27] <shawnr_> I have "Synaptics Touchpad" entry as a inputdevice in my xorg.conf but its not working
[08:27] <ubuntux1> eyequeue: ya! maybe...
[08:28] <haitike> someone have any problem in amarok  with suggested song dynamic playlist?
[08:28] <ubuntux1> stefg: but i installed kubuntu n its running fine
[08:28] <haitike> it doesn't work in my amarok
[08:28] <eyequeue> ubuntux1, there are three cds per arch, live alternate and server
[08:28] <ubuntux1> Jack_Sparrow: no..
[08:28] <Chris_> irssi is really nice
[08:28] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntux1: Drive installation tools to make a big drive work on an older machine can also cause issues
[08:28] <Crippy-Boy> amarok kicks ass, play list handling is buggy as crap though :-/
[08:28] <g-nome> eyequeu: what's the difference between the permissions i can set with right click on home folder and the chmod *** ones?
[08:28] <ubuntux1> eyequeue: i know
[08:28] <Przemcio1978> hi, do you know some cool software for webcames?
[08:28] <eyequeue> !language > Crippy-Boy
[08:28] <Chris_> mm... I prefer BMP
[08:28] <Chris_> best player on Gnome IMHO
[08:28] <Przemcio1978> webcams
[08:28] <ubuntux1> Jack_Sparrow: then why kubuntu installed ok?
[08:29] <Chris_> for music
[08:29] <Chris_> supports WinAMP and XMMS skins and shit
[08:29] <Chris_> real nice
[08:29] <Crippy-Boy> eyequeue: 'crap' is swearing?
[08:29] <ompaul> robert_, I suggest you look at these urls and then think about not compiling it, http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2004/03/24/running-php4-and-php5-in-parallel/
[08:29] <g-nome> non-playlist bsed player are OUT :-)
[08:29] <Ali_> I installed UBUNTU for 4 times within 2-3 monthes but:
[08:29] <Ali_> In the first installation : it find my partitions well
[08:29] <Ali_> In the second installation (a month  later): It caused an Error  scaning my FAT32 drive( but successful on NTFS drives)
[08:29] <eyequeue> Crippy-Boy, as is the a word before it
[08:29] <Ali_> AND the problem continued in third installation
[08:29] <Ali_> In 4th install it scanned and mounted my FAT32 drive successfully
[08:29] <Ali_> How is it possible?
[08:29] <g-nome> eyequeue: what's the difference between the permissions i can set with right click on home folder and the chmod *** ones?
[08:29] <markrian> ubuntux1: the best thing to do is download the alternate CD for 6.06
[08:29] <sewo> hello, someone with aiglx and edgy ?
[08:29] <eyequeue> g-nome, i know nothing of the clicking, perhaps that it's a gui method
[08:30] <Ali_> Of course one of my friends have this problem too
[08:30] <g-nome> ok
[08:30] <Subhuman> sewo, ask in #ubuntu+1
[08:30] <Crippy-Boy> eyequeue: the word before it?
[08:30] <markrian> ubuntux1: and either install from that, or use it as a source for ubuntu-desktop packages+deps
[08:30] <sewo> Subhuman, thanks
[08:30] <ubuntux1> Ali_: its caused due to errors on ur windows partition......u bdont need to worry abt thta
[08:30] <eyequeue> markrian, the "a" word earlier in the same line
[08:30] <Crippy-Boy> As?
[08:30] <eyequeue> Crippy-Boy,  the "a" word earlier in the same line
[08:30] <qatsi> hello all !
[08:30] <keithhhh> lupine_85: hey is there any hobbist game programming languages like blitz basic in linux?
[08:30] <eyequeue> markrian, disregard please, a misdirect
[08:30] <ubuntux1> i goota go now
[08:30] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntux1: Different installer...  Different OS... Did you use a program to install a larger drive in your system..  !pastebin your grb menu
[08:30] <ubuntux1> thx all...n goodnite:)
[08:31] <Crippy-Boy> I said 'As' Re read my sentence.
[08:31] <markrian> eyequeue: disregarded ;o
[08:31] <ubuntux1> Jack_Sparrow: i MUST leave now! will be back later...thx...
[08:31] <qatsi> ok, i updated my system to the last version, but with it, i dont have direct rendering enabled, so what i need to do is install the packages that came with the cd, how do i do that ?
[08:31] <Ali_> is any way to mount a Reiser FS partition in ubuntu?
[08:31] <ubuntux1> Jack_Sparrow: no
[08:31] <HumanPrototype> hi
[08:31] <lupine_85> keithhhh: plenty of programming languages... ;)
[08:31] <eyequeue> Crippy-Boy, i'm not about to swear here to appease you, don't play ignorant please
[08:31] <Ali_> (used in suse)
[08:31] <HumanPrototype> where can i get help with compix and xgl
[08:31] <qatsi> HumanPrototype: #ubuntu-xgl channel
[08:32] <Przemcio1978> so, what about this software for webcams?
[08:32] <christopher> hello how do i convert my 2nd hardrive  partition to fat32 now it is ext3
[08:32] <keithhhh> lupine_85: but geared to game programming for people that dont want to get into heavy coding
[08:32] <Ali_> is any way to mount a Reiser FS partition in ubuntu? :(
[08:32] <Crippy-Boy> eyequeue: Sorry. im tired, i didnt realise i said it, Wasn't trying to play ignorant.
[08:32] <markrian> Ali_: of course
[08:32] <lupine_85> I'd imagine it depends on exactly what you're after. Your bet would be to google for suitable software, then see if it's in the repos
[08:33] <lupine_85> Ali_: supported by default
[08:33] <lupine_85> just mount as usual, maybe with '-t reiserfs'
[08:33] <Ali_> thanx
[08:33] <eyequeue> Crippy-Boy, is it that automatic in your speaking? :(  understood though
[08:34] <suppressingfire> Ali_: you may like to poke around with the disks-admin program
[08:34] <qatsi> is there a log or something of the packages i update with synaptic ?
[08:34] <suppressingfire> Ali_: it's under the System/Adminsitration/Disc
[08:35] <Crippy-Boy> eyequeue: No, its not, i just had a bad day and im tired. Didn't realise, anyway, i appologise.
[08:36] <markrian> !language > markrian
[08:36] <markrian> Interesting ;o
[08:36] <Warbo> christopher: I doubt it would "convert" (as in, all data is preserved), but if you want to format it then System>Admin>Discs, System>Admin>GNOME Parition Manager or "man mkfs.vfat" would help
[08:36] <Hyakutaro> erh.. I'm having trouble changing the colours in XChat
[08:36] <Hyakutaro> I want everything white
[08:36] <Hyakutaro> but its not working
[08:36] <JairunCaloth> I'm currently in a live CD. I've finally managed to get GRUB reinstalled but I get an error when it trys to boot. It seems it can't mount my raid partition
[08:37] <qatsi> how do i go back with an upgrade i made to some libs?
[08:37] <stefg> Hyakutaro: better /j #xchat
[08:37] <markrian> Hyakutaro: have you tried xchat-gnome? Awesome, HIG-ified version of xchat
[08:37] <Hyakutaro> mm
[08:37] <Hyakutaro> doesn't work
[08:37] <markrian> Hyakutaro: lacks some fuatures though
[08:37] <markrian> Really?
[08:37] <markrian> Hyakutaro: how doesn't it work?
[08:38] <Toaster54> you like xchat-gnome? lol
[08:38] <Hyakutaro> I changed all colours to white and they still the same
[08:38] <qatsi> again: is there a way to 'revert' the upgrade i last made with synaptic ?
[08:38] <Ych> anyone know why wmv videos wont play on firefox?
[08:38] <Warbo> qatsi: It is usually easiest to find out what the exact problem is (like "libsomething.so not found" would be a problem with apckage libsomething) then get that from packages.ubuntu.com and use dpkg to install it
[08:38] <markrian> Toaster54: Yup. Anything wrong with that?
[08:38] <Toaster54> yes Ych
[08:38] <Warbo> *package
[08:38] <goga> hi everyone ....in gconf-editor when i try to change a parameter in apps/compiz/plugins ....i have the notification "this key has no schema " in every parameter, and  i can't change anything in compiz plugins...does anybody knows what it is and how to solve it?
[08:38] <Toaster54> hmm no, was just wondering because xchat seems to be so much better
[08:38] <Ych> because they will play if i have the file on my comp
[08:38] <JairunCaloth> anyone here good friends with GRUB?
[08:38] <Toaster54> oh
[08:38] <markrian> qatsi: you can force-downgrade a package, if you've still got the .deb
[08:39] <stefg> qatsi: yes, restaore your last backup :-) If you don't have one you learned something for the next time .-)
[08:39] <Warbo> goga: Are you sure you started Compiz with the gconf option?
[08:39] <Toaster54> ych, then i don't know why it doesn't work, i think m$ just did crappy work or the plugin is bad
[08:39] <qatsi> stefg: darn, i just want xgl to work, but with the new updates, they dont :( i was using the ones who came by default with the cd, now that i upgraded, direct rendering isnt enabled
[08:39] <earthian> for xubuntu
[08:39] <earthian> what are the packages?
[08:39] <stefg> !xgl
[08:39] <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
[08:39] <qatsi> markrian: if i have the files in the ubuntu cd ?
[08:40] <earthian> like ubuntu have: ubuntu-base and ubuntu-desktop
[08:40] <earthian> what are the packages for xubuntu?
[08:40] <eetfunk> why isn't 'locate' always in sync with my files?  it still shows files that i have deleted
[08:40] <markrian> qatsi: that'd do, yes - you can also just re-download the version you had before manually.
[08:40] <goga> Warbo : you mean compiz --replace gconf etc...
[08:40] <goga> ?
[08:40] <ompaul> earthian, xubuntu-desktop join #xubuntu
[08:40] <earthian> i know xubuntu-desktop... what about the base one?
[08:40] <Subhuman> eefwak, run "sudo updatedb" to sync it up
[08:40] <Ych> i can be more specific, mplayer will not play wmvs for me, but totem will
[08:40] <steven_> i forgot the command to reconfigure the xserver driver.. it is something xorg-driver  --reconfigure?  Anyone know it?  I am trying to set up my fglrx
[08:40] <Subhuman> eefwak, it does it every night, but you can force it by running that
[08:40] <stefg> eetfunk: you have to run 'sudo updatedb' to sync. this is normally a cron job
[08:41] <eyequeue> eetfunk, "sudo updatedb" just before locate, if youi want that (it's only run in cron, is your literal answer)
[08:41] <qatsi> Warbo: its not that i have a lib missing, its just that the ones before these, work better (for me)
[08:41] <Ych> more will vlc
[08:41] <markrian> steven_: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-corg
[08:41] <eyezdk> after have install some updates, and booting up my system, I have alot of options to choice from, coz I am running with Dual boot, are there a way to remove all other options I am not gonana Use?
[08:41] <steven_> thanks
[08:41] <markrian> steven_: except that should be xserver-xorg, obviously ;o
[08:41] <eetfunk> eyequeue: is there another way to find files? (that would save me that hassle)
[08:41] <_keturn> what field would I use to pin dapper-backports?  the dapper-backports/Release file does not have a "Archive" line, and I don't see anything about "Suite" in apt_preferences(5)
[08:41] <Ych> nor will vlc i mean
[08:41] <steven_> markrian: thanks :)
[08:42] <markrian> eetfunk: it's odd that locate keeps deleted files in its database for you, since it doesn't for me...
[08:42] <eetfunk> hrm... don't know why
[08:43] <McBain> Hi all, is there any way to achieve accelerated video in VMWare Server 1.0.1, host OS = WinXP, guest OS = Ubunto 6.06?  I'm running the vmware-tools, so I'm running the VMware SVGA driver.  But it's awfully slow...  I asked on #vmware but no answer as yet.
[08:43] <keithhhh> lupine_85: sorry to bother you again, are you sure I can run my current windows setup with QEMU?  Ive looked thru several sites and my linux mag and they all tell me how to run windows in linux but I have to make an image from an windows XP cd
[08:43] <markrian> richiefrich: why get rid of them? They're not spin-offs anyway, they are sub projects
[08:43] <JairunCaloth> can someone help me make grub open /dev/md1?
[08:43] <Warbo> keithhhh: "qemu -hda /dev/hda" or something like that should work
[08:43] <markrian> richiefrich: they all share exactly the same repositories as well
[08:43] <antox> in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf what does the "require user @system" mean?
[08:43] <eyequeue> eetfunk, "find" or "locate"
[08:44] <Warbo> keithhhh: Jus tdon't run Ubuntu in it, since your filesystems will all go read-only
[08:44] <richiefrich> markrian can't ppl just install other de/wm's ?
[08:44] <richiefrich> markrian is it thats hard ?
[08:44] <lupine_85> keithhhh: just feed the device name (e.g. /dev/hda1) as the image name, IIRC
[08:44] <goga> Warbo: in Sessions/Startup programms i have put :(compiz --replace gconf decoration wobbly fade minimize cube rotate zoom scale move resize place switcher trailfocus water bs neg & ) if that's what you mena
[08:44] <goga> mean
[08:44] <lupine_85> or maybe /dev/hda
[08:44] <qatsi> :(
[08:45] <richiefrich> markrian  http://fluxbuntu.org/  <- how hard is it to --> apt-get install fluckbox
[08:45] <Warbo> goga: Well that was all I could think of (I don't use compiz, but I knew it had that option)
[08:45] <markrian> richiefrich: that's precisely what Xubuntu etc does, essentially
[08:45] <goga> ok :)
[08:45] <HeboR> xubuntu uses xfce
[08:45] <richiefrich> markrian i guess i dont get it.. so ppl cant do it with apt-get  ?
[08:46] <richiefrich> markrian or are ppl that "lazy"
[08:46] <markrian> richiefrich: for instance, I'm 'running' Ubuntu right now. I could easily 'convert' to Xubuntu by installing 'xubuntu-desktop', which pulls in all the deps necessary for it
[08:46] <richiefrich> markrian thats my point.. then why make all new "forks" get add howto's in the forums/wiki
[08:46] <goga> Warbo: do you know any room where i can find answers?
[08:47] <stefg> can we take the religious discussions about distro-flavors to #ubuntu-offtopic. The point is not how hard it is to get fluxbux installed but how hard and cumbersome it is to get rid of the gnome-cruft if you want a lean and mean box
[08:47] <markrian> richiefrich: the only difference between the *ubuntu variants is that they have different desktop environments installed *by default*, which can be changed at any point to any other - even simultaneously
[08:47] <Rennen> Can anyone point me to a quicky article on my new install witha Grub Error 15 on /dev/sda1
[08:47] <keithhhh> lupine_85: hmmm it says I cant open hard disk image
[08:47] <markrian> richiefrich: 'fork' is so completely the wrong word. *Nothing* has been forked, or duplicated
[08:48] <richiefrich> markrian i know my point.. so wouldnt it be easier to make a wiki page and give the commands
[08:48] <lupine_85> sudo it?
[08:48] <keithhhh> lupine_85: oh ya hehe
[08:48] <rukuartic> Hey there. I'm looking for a way to find installed packages that I don't need or use and safely delete them.
[08:48] <markrian> richiefrich: that can be done now...?
[08:48] <richiefrich> markrian  then your missing --> e17buntu, icewmbuntu, evilwmbuntu wmiibuntu   :)
[08:48] <bieb_work> anyone here with xubuntu experience?
[08:48] <stefg> Rennen: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/de/grub-error-guide.xml
[08:48] <keithhhh> lupine_85: ooooo something is happening
[08:49] <Rennen> stefg: thanks
[08:49] <stefg> Rennen: oh, but that's german
[08:49] <Rennen> stefg: no worriesd - I /en it
[08:49] <Rennen> stefg: I use to be a gentoo fan boy too
[08:50] <keithhhh> lupine_85: its still says booting from Hard Disk...
[08:50] <stefg> Rennen: my guess is that the kernel line doesn't point to a valid kernel
[08:50] <IcemanV9> rukuartic: dpkg -l -- it will give you the list of installed packages
[08:50] <Ma|el> hi there
[08:51] <Rennen> stefg: I can boot to that kernel by booting the livecd and telling it to boot to the first hard disk
[08:51] <antox> is it possible to provide .ppd files to clients from a CUPS-server?
[08:51] <Ma|el> i wonder why i cannot dd /dev/mem with dapper? it worked with hoary
[08:51] <stefg> Rennen: then your /boot/grub/menu.lst on the installed kernel is malformed
[08:52] <ompaul> bieb_work, have you asked in #xubuntu ?
[08:52] <McBain> I had a strange problem installing godi (ocaml) with sudo...  OK now I realise it says not to install it as root, but... anyway there were some things in a sh script like: cdir=`godi_confdir` which said 'command not found' when run under sudo.  I'm guessing it has something to do with the backquotes but it was a bit weird.  Anyone know why this happens?
[08:52] <stefg> Rennen: then your /boot/grub/menu.lst on the installed _system_  is malformed
[08:53] <tiede> hi all! I just have a quick question. Why is it that wifi-radar always asks for sudo permission? Is there a way I can make it not ask for it (part of the reason to have a wireless manager is for seemless connectivity - WITHOUT having to type stuff in to connect!!!)
[08:53] <Warbo> McBain: That would try to set "cdir" to the output of "godi_confdir" (like running "kernelversion=`uname -r`")
[08:53] <McBain> warbo: yes, that's what it's supposed to do.
[08:53] <Rennen> stefg: how do I fix that?
[08:53] <lupine_85> keithhhh:
[08:54] <Warbo> McBain: But is "godi_confdir" a command?
[08:54] <eyezdk> any one can tell if xubuntu is a better choice for old laptop... and I mean OLD
[08:54] <lupine_85> no idea from the boot, I'm afriaf
[08:54] <stev> Anyone from Denmark??
[08:54] <McBain> Warbo: yes.  well it is, once you have finished the first bootstrap of godi.
[08:54] <tiede> No one knows why wifi-radar asks for sudo?
[08:54] <McBain> Warbo: but it doesn't work if you sudo
[08:54] <arsalan_> any link to learn to customize profile
[08:54] <rukuartic> IcemanV9: Mmm... lots of them. Any way I could find ones that haven't been used in X months?
[08:55] <Warbo> McBain: Well as far as I know the only sifference between $PATH for root and non-root is that root has the sbin dirs and non-root has the games dirs
[08:55] <keithhhh> lupine_85: well it was an exciting few minutes hehe thanks
[08:55] <Warbo> McBain: If it says not to install as root, do you think it might check for root and refuse to run?
[08:55] <bieb_work> ompaul... not yet.. figured I would look here also
[08:56] <stefg> Rennen: look at the output of 'mount' (without parameters) or sudo fdisk -l and compare if /boot/grub/menu.lst reflects the right partitions. Another issue could be that there are no or wrong symlinks from /vmlinuz to /boot/vmlinuz-foo-bar
[08:56] <stev> hey i have a ISO file containing a game does anyone know how to install it in ubuntu, i'm lost
[08:56] <McBain> Warbo: yes, sudo echo $PATH lists the correct dir
[08:56] <McBain> Warbo: no, it's simply failing in the script.  well, I installed it as not-root anyway :)
[08:56] <str> what game
[08:56] <McBain> Warbo: just a bit intrigued as to why it didn't work.  Being a bit of a Linux nub.
[08:57] <stev> hard truck something
[08:57] <str> is it for windows
[08:57] <stev> Yes
[08:57] <Rennen> stefg: hmm - okay - i am checking some stuff now - I booted to livecd - sec
[08:57] <str> try is with wine
[08:57] <Warbo> !wine > stev
[08:57] <opexoc> Could anyone help me with installing drivers for my mutlifunction printer? ( HP Photosmart C4180 )
[08:58] <stev> Okay but can i run it without burning the iso. ( like using daemon in win) ?
[08:58] <IcemanV9> rukuartic: not really. you'll have to be creative with dpkg -- options + grep + awk; i haven't done it before (looking for haven't been used in x months)
[08:58] <Warbo> stev: "sudo mount filename.iso folder -o loop" will mount filename.iso into a folder called "folder"
[08:59] <stev> Thanks that's good info
[08:59] <rukuartic> IcemanV9: Would there be packages installed in there that I wouldn't be using?
[08:59] <Hyakutaro> irssi is great :D
[09:00] <dinamizador> guenas
[09:00] <Hyakutaro> ah
[09:00] <Hyakutaro> it's not hard to use
[09:00] <Ma|el> no ideas why dd of /dev/mem does not work with dapper?
[09:00] <IcemanV9> rukuartic: i think there is a thread on its subject somewhere in ubuntuforums.org
[09:01] <Hyakutaro> could someone tell me how to set all colours to white?
[09:01] <Warbo> Ma|el: What is that meant to do? corrupt the data in RAM?
[09:01] <Hyakutaro> and how to remove change the colours of the 2 blues bars? (top and bottom)
[09:01] <dinamizador> guenas
[09:01] <Ma|el> no, i want to recover text if a program crashed, eg filled in forms in firefox
[09:01] <Warbo> oh wait, not of=/dev/mem :)
[09:01] <Ma|el> ;)
[09:02] <stefg> Warbo: welcome to the wonderful world of error free syntax :-)
[09:02] <opl> Hi all, can someone tell me when the next version of ubuntu is suposed to come out?
[09:02] <dinamizador> HOLA FERNANDO
[09:02] <Ma|el> it works fine with hoary but dapper says "operation not permitted"
[09:02] <xst> After my last dapper upgrade cups printing over ipp stopped working. Now all printing over ipp just results in a garbage page containing a series of "@PJL-SET" commands. Any ideas on how to fix it?
[09:02] <rukuartic> IcemanV9: Oh, forgot to check there. Thanks!
[09:03] <Rennen> stefg: I am confused - Both my symlinks look good - the menu.1st seems fine - I even installed a new kernel and it does the same thing. I have tired to re-install grub .. hmm
[09:03] <Warbo> Ma|el: If "sudo xxxxxxx" even says permission denied (sometimes stuff in /proc says that) then "sudo -s -H" followed by "xxxxxxx" usually works
[09:03] <Rennen> stefg: it's like grub can't see my partition
[09:03] <stefg> Rennen: old bios? LBA enabled for drive > 137 GB ?
[09:03] <Ma|el> i use a root shell ;)
[09:03] <Rennen> stefg: I ran an fsck on it ...
[09:03] <Ma|el> sudo -s -H
[09:04] <Warbo> Ma|el: Well I'm all out of ideas then
[09:04] <Ma|el> :\
[09:04] <Rennen> stefg: brand new board .. - ASUS - with an AMD64
[09:04] <stefg> Rennen: SATA?
[09:04] <Rennen> stefg: yes
[09:04] <stefg> Uhuh
[09:05] <Rennen> stefg: it boots from livecd's menu - .....
[09:05] <Abst> How can I install Opengl
[09:05] <magnet> hi there
[09:05] <Rennen> stefg: once I am in - all is fine - seemingly - I just can't boot from my own MBR ...
[09:05] <magnet> Abst: what do you mean "install opengl" ? for development or usage ?
[09:05] <Warbo> Abst: open a package manager and look for gl or mesa
[09:05] <Abst> magnet Superpenguin Racer
[09:06] <Abst> Warbo Okay
[09:06] <magnet> k
[09:06] <Warbo> Abst: try installing something 3D and that should pull in the packages
[09:06] <arsalan_> is /etc/profile is my actual profile file in ubuntu or somewhere else
[09:06] <Warbo> !inf ocrack-attack
[09:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about inf ocrack-attack - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:06] <stefg> Rennen: i can remember having read bug reports with this issue... but since I'm running a good old fashioned nvidia2-PATA system it didn't scratch me
[09:06] <Warbo> !info planetpenguin-racer
[09:06] <ubotu> planetpenguin-racer: another 3D racing game featuring Tux, the Linux penguin. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.1-5ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 242 kB, installed size 700 kB
[09:06] <Warbo> that's better
[09:06] <Rennen> stefg: this is a fresh install - I am going to try and re-install but create a /boot partition
[09:07] <PupUsera2f741> im not able to connect with dialup in ubuntu dapper im having this problem The PPP daemon has died: pppd options error (exit code = 2)
[09:07] <Rennen> stefg: when I create my boot partition I am going to make it ext2
[09:07] <stefg> Rennen: always a good idea, keep it small and ext2
[09:07] <Rennen> stefg: thanks for the help
[09:07] <PupUsera2f741> can somebody help me
[09:07] <magnet> I have a question of my own ; I have an old laptop with no CD drive and I want to install xubuntu on it; I can install debian sarge from floppies (netinst) but Ubuntu doesn't provide such install disks and I couldn't find any .. do anyone have some experience with updating sarge to dapper directly (sarge netinst, ie, not that many packages)
[09:07] <eyequeue> Rennen, make a /home too, if you can
[09:07] <arsalan> is /etc/profile is my actual profile file in ubuntu or somewhere else, can  anybody help me
[09:08] <Rennen> eyequeue: yea, I usually do, I don't knwo why I didn't honestly
[09:08] <magnet> arsalan: no it's the shared profile
[09:08] <magnet> and it's a bash script not a "profile"
[09:08] <magnet> your own equivalent is ~/.bash_profile
[09:08] <eyequeue> arsalan, /etc/profile is global, ~/.nash_profile is per-user, and will take precedence
[09:08] <SupremacyGnu> Hiya! I have a problem with Hamachi. Already searched the hamachi forums and found nothing. Nobodys answering on their IRC channel either.
[09:08] <Warbo> magnet: I would probably recommend using Debian floppy, then installing Dapper's debootstrap package and installing with that
[09:08] <magnet> eyequeue: ~/.bash_profile doesn't take precedence afaik, both are run
[09:08] <eyequeue> Rennen, it saves hassles with reinstalls, i figure heh
[09:09] <Ma|el> magnet: : maybe a usb cdrom drive? but i guess the old bios cannot boot from it but perhaps with a boot diskette?
[09:09] <rukuartic> magnet: No, I think one is for local, another is for remote login
[09:09] <rukuartic> eyequeue: see previous post :P[
[09:09] <arsalan> thanx I got it
[09:09] <Warbo> (when I say install, I mean extract into the right places)
[09:09] <eyequeue> magnet, "sourced after" might be how i should have phrased it
[09:09] <magnet> Ma|el: I don't have any, and I don't plan on spending money on installing ubuntu ;)
[09:09] <SupremacyGnu> the thing is: my friends status is green but the server is red... (he uses WinXP and I ubuntu) any help?
[09:09] <Ma|el> hehe
[09:09] <magnet> yep that's it eyequeue :)
[09:09] <magnet> rukuartic: I don't think so
[09:09] <eyequeue> rukuartic, no, each is sourced upon any login
[09:10] <eyequeue> magnet, precedence when the two conflict, is what i was thinking
[09:10] <rukuartic> magnet: I remember logging into my school's system and trying to get my .bashrc working, but it didn't work so I did research... .bash_profile worked
[09:10] <bayzide1> does any one know of a p2p client for ubuntu i cant seem to get sun java workign so limewire wont isntall
[09:10] <mikeconcepts> !topic
[09:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about topic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:10] <stefg> !frostwire
[09:10] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[09:10] <mikeconcepts> topic!
[09:10] <mikeconcepts> ?
[09:11] <bayzide1> thanks stefg ill go read that
[09:11] <eyequeue> rukuartic, read the top of each file, .bashrc is for non-login shells, .bash_profile for login shells
[09:11] <stefg> mikeconcepts: do you mean /topic
[09:11] <mikeconcepts> oh
[09:11] <magnet> eyequeue: I don't see how the two may conflict, they are sequentially run; the .bash_profile is run after, so if you set something that was already set, yep it'll take prececence "in the end", but that's hardly precedence like with usual conf files ;)
[09:11] <mikeconcepts> thx
[09:11] <SupremacyGnu> Hiya! I have a problem with Hamachi. Already searched the hamachi forums and found nothing. Nobodys answering on their IRC channel either. My friend has green status but the server has red. I can't ping him or the server either.
[09:11] <d-s-d> hi
[09:11] <d-s-d> How can I make my Xserver reading the xrdb-file .Xdefaults?
[09:11] <whoppix> hey all :) i would like to know if its possible to bind a special sound card to a special device node? i have the problem that sometimes soundcard1 is /dev/dsp and sometimes its /dev/dsp1, which makes it hard to configure.. thx for help in advance :)
[09:12] <eyequeue> magnet, yeah, i meant people who define PATH in .bash_profile (without a self-reference in it of course)
[09:12] <d-s-d> Yes, i know there is the .xinitrc-file, but if I overwrite that one, my wm won't start anymore...
[09:12] <arsalan> magnet
[09:12] <magnet> yep eyequeue
[09:12] <rukuartic> eyequeue: Hmm... I'll look. :P Might have something wrong. Thats whats nice about linux... if its not working, its your fault. not the OS itself :P
[09:12] <Phuzion> How do I go about updating the cache for apt?
[09:12] <Warbo> whoppix: ALSA might handle them better, I think that is in /dev/sound or something
[09:12] <arsalan> well after editing /etc/profile, do i need to restart to get the changes?
[09:12] <rukuartic> Phuzion: sudo apt-get update I think :)
[09:12] <Warbo> Phuzion: "sudo apt-get update"
[09:13] <magnet> whoppix: if you happen to find the answer, I'm interested
[09:13] <eyequeue> rukuartic, and the "top of the file" is comments, in dapper, probably not on your previous box :)
[09:13] <magnet> but the /dev/dsp are OSS emulation, and the kernel decides in which order they'll be
[09:13] <magnet> that's frustrating when you have multiple sound cards
[09:13] <magnet> (the kernel = ALSA in particular)
[09:13] <whoppix> Warbo, hmm.. but the problem is that sometimes card1 is the main card and sometimes card2.. so sometimes all the system sound+alsa sound is being outputted from card2, but card2 should be only for explicit use by the user
[09:14] <Warbo> yeah, but I was thinking maybe the device nodes for ALSA are consistent but they are mapped differently to OSS
[09:14] <whoppix> magnet, im gonna tell ya if i find something usefull :)
[09:14] <magnet> arsalan: you just have to logout then login
[09:14] <rukuartic> eyequeue: You're right... my fault. :{P> (goatee.)
[09:14] <whoppix> Warbo, hmm.. let me have a look
[09:14] <punkmexic> can somebody please help me a little with my winmodem?=?? it stopped working.
[09:14] <Warbo> I am not expert here
[09:14] <magnet> or you can simply type in a shell "source /etc/profile"
[09:14] <magnet> or ". /etc/profile" (note the space after the dot)
[09:14] <magnet> whoops
[09:14] <magnet> I guess he'll go with logging out ;)
[09:15] <whoppix> Warbo, well, i have /dev/snd, which contains some device nodes..
[09:15] <mirak> is there a way to recover data after a rm -fr ?
[09:15] <Warbo> that will be it then
[09:15] <magnet> mirak: depends on your filesystem and what you did after
[09:15] <xst> Does anyone know some sort of desktop application that acts like an interface to google calendar?
[09:15] <whoppix> Warbo, yeah, but tell me, why is the system sometimes using card1 as default and sometimes card2?
[09:15] <Warbo> mirak: First thing is unmount filesystem
[09:15] <eyequeue> mirak, no, man rf
[09:15] <Myrgen> Hi. I'm really new at Linux and Ubuntu. Was (am) very happy with Breezy Badger, but when upgrading to Dapper, I got loads of problems. The main one being that Dapper seems to refuse to work with my VIA832xx embedded card. No sound, no video. I posted on forums, followed the excellently written 'Comprehensive Sound Problem Guide' from LordRaiden, but no joy: my desktop freezes, my mouse becomes sluggish.. in short, the system
[09:15] <Myrgen>  becomes unmanageable. I re-installed Breezy. Any idea? :)
[09:16] <mirak> it's fat32
[09:16] <Rennen> quit
[09:16] <Warbo> whoppix: I don't really know. I would have thought it has enough control to keep it consistent, since ALSA is run pretty far into the boot sequence
[09:16] <stefg> mirak: that depends on the filesystem and if you were smart enough to unmount the drive immediatly after you noticed the mistake
[09:16] <magnet> mirak: so no :)
[09:16] <magnet> you can't recover anything from fat32 once it's deleted anyway
[09:16] <eyequeue> Myrgen, first, i'm no video expert, at all
[09:16] <mirak> I canceled the rm and didn't write anything on it
[09:16] <whoppix> Warbo, hmm.. im gonna ask in #alsa or so, but thx so far :)
[09:16] <mirak> :(((((
[09:17] <eyequeue> Myrgen, second, is there a bug filed about it, so it can be repaired?
[09:17] <magnet> whoppix: don't forget to tell me if you got the info :)
[09:17] <Warbo> whoppix: "so far" is probably as far as I can go though
[09:17] <no0tic> I need to use my SD Card reader but ubuntu doesn't react in any way if I insert a card into it
[09:17] <pep100> I am new to this chat thing. If I am doing something wrong please advise. I am trying to configure Dapper on my hp TC1100 tablet. I have the pen working but I cannot get wifi, modem, side buttons, or screen rotation to work?
[09:17] <no0tic> what can I do?
[09:18] <punkmexic> if someone can help me with my winmodem please query me :P
[09:18] <stefg> !modem
[09:18] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[09:18] <magnet> pep100: that's very specific so maybe you'll have more help on a place dedicated to linux tablets
[09:18] <Myrgen> eyequeue: I saw a bug filed on the bug report site, but mostly for Dell computers, while mine is a home built one, though the problem seemed the same. Bug was resolved for Dell, but no joy in mine.
[09:18] <Warbo> pep100: step 1) find out what they are, step 2) get the right drivers (if they exist), step 3) install the drivers
[09:18] <eyequeue> pep100, you are fine, and welcome :)  the most common problem to avoid is pasting more than a single line of error output here
[09:18] <Warbo> pep100: You can do step 1 by looking through "lspci"
[09:18] <magnet> no0tic: is it a USB SD card reader?
[09:18] <eyequeue> Myrgen, i'd file another then, and reference the first
[09:18] <no0tic> magnet, internal, I'm on a laptop
[09:18] <punkmexic> i have been connected via dialup modem..but suddenly i started having a problem :(
[09:19] <Myrgen> eyequeue: *nods* I'll try to figure out how to.Thank you! :)
[09:19] <bayzide1> hey i installed frostwire but it wont open after i install it
[09:19] <magnet> ok go with "lspci" in a shell
[09:19] <pep100> Magnet: Is there a chat for linux tablets?
[09:19] <speeddemon> dude cool
[09:19] <magnet> (maybe you'll need to sudo it)
[09:19] <eyequeue> !bug > Myrgen
[09:19] <punkmexic> its maybe because an upgrade.
[09:19] <magnet> pep100: don't know, I don't have a tablet :)
[09:19] <speeddemon> hello
[09:19] <Warbo> bayzide1: You sure you have Java?
[09:19] <Myrgen> hrms? (I'm really new at this!!) :)
[09:20] <speeddemon> so i guess linux has some secrets for me
[09:20] <bayzide1> yeah its installed but i cant get lime wire or frost wire to realize it
[09:20] <speeddemon> how do i compile
[09:20] <no0tic> magnet, could you call me, when talking with me? it's easier to read for me :)
[09:20] <magnet> no0tic: it will list the different hardware devices that are recognized
[09:20] <Warbo> !info build-essential
[09:20] <ubotu> build-essential: informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.1 (dapper), package size 6 kB, installed size 48 kB
[09:20] <no0tic> magnet, I'll paste it
[09:20] <magnet> not here
[09:20] <eyequeue> speeddemon, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:20] <no0tic> magnet, on paste...
[09:20] <magnet> please
[09:20] <no0tic> magnet, yes yes, I know
[09:20] <magnet> ok :)
[09:20] <speeddemon> yeah just like that
[09:20] <pep100> Warbo: already done that. the wifi adapter (intel ipw2100 3B) is not listed.
[09:20] <no0tic> magnet, I'm a member of the italian community
[09:21] <TLE> Anybody know if there will be a new ATI driver version as default i egdy ?
[09:21] <magnet> ah.. well, I am no member of no community ;)
[09:21] <no0tic> magnet, I lend a hand sometimes on the italian channel :)
[09:21] <bayzide1> Warbo: whats wrong with my java?
[09:21] <speeddemon> well, in other words.. i need a mp3 player that works under ubuntu
[09:21] <magnet> hehe; I came here to ask for help myself, but nobody seems to have a clue (dist-upgrade'ing sarge to dapper or breezy)
[09:21] <no0tic> magnet, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22652
[09:21] <speeddemon> eye
[09:21] <eyequeue> !mp3 > speeddemon
[09:21] <Warbo> bayzide1: I am just wondering if it is installed. You have sun-java5-jre right?
[09:21] <speeddemon> yo
[09:22] <no0tic> magnet, well, they are not supported :)
[09:22] <JairunCaloth> If I run update-grub, that should make grub rememnber how to get where I just got right?
[09:22] <eyequeue> speeddemon, read the bot, you probably don't need to compile at all
[09:22] <magnet> what "they" ?
[09:22] <Warbo> magnet: I suggested using a Debian floppy to debootstrap dapper
[09:22] <bayzide1> yeah but its like lime wire and frost wire dont know it
[09:22] <speeddemon> oh, bot
[09:22] <whoppix> magnet, looks like evryone in #alsa is idle :)
[09:22] <no0tic> magnet, upgrades from different distros...
[09:22] <magnet> yeah Warbo, but how am I supposed to get dapper?
[09:22] <no0tic> magnet, it could be harmful
[09:22] <opl> I installed the KDE-dektop on ubuntu because I have to swich sometimes. But now ths spals screen Kbuntu appears on start up. Can I change this back to ubuntu?
[09:22] <Warbo> magnet: with debootstrap over Internet/network
[09:22] <mirak> magnet: are you sure ?
[09:22] <mirak> no windows tool can ?
[09:23] <eyequeue> JairunCaloth, i thought update-grub would source menu.lst and make that the new settings
[09:23] <magnet> mirak: i'm not sure but I don't think so
[09:23] <eyequeue> update-grub (8)      - program to generate GRUB's menu.lst file
[09:23] <speeddemon> eye, what bot?
[09:23] <bayzide1> warbo: do i have to restart my comp for sun java to kick in
[09:23] <magnet> Warbo: any good link ?
[09:23] <Warbo> bayzide1: No
[09:23] <eyequeue> speeddemon, you should have received a /msg from ubotu
[09:23] <speeddemon> aha
[09:23] <speeddemon> i see
[09:23] <Warbo> magnet: Well I helped someone with it a while ago, and they seemed to get it figured out
[09:23] <bayzide1> Warbo: then whats wrong
[09:23] <magnet> no0tic: in your paste, what are you trying to get working
[09:23] <speeddemon> mom
[09:23] <eyequeue> !ubotu
[09:23] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[09:24] <no0tic> magnet, I don't know how it is listed in here...
[09:24] <JairunCaloth> eyequeue ah does that generate one tailored to my system, or do I need to edit the menu.list?
[09:24] <no0tic> magnet, in there :)
[09:24] <Warbo> bayzide1: I am not sure. Try finding the .jar file in /usr/lib/frostwire and running it with "java -jar filename.jar"
[09:24] <eyequeue> JairunCaloth, typically, we edit, then run the command, both with sudo
[09:24] <speeddemon> just like that, oke, trting it
[09:24] <no0tic> magnet, probably line 21
[09:25] <magnet> ok Warbo I have what I need, thx (didn't know Ubuntu provided that)
[09:25] <Coeus28> Hello, I'm having troubles installing ubuntu, I have a compaq that was given to me because they though it didn't work anymore (it was a software problem), but when I put in the original ubuntu install CD it goes way too slow (probably due to the 256MB of ram) and when I put in the alternate cd it just gives me a black screen when I choose text mode install or OEM install mode
[09:25] <Warbo> magnet: There is an installation from floppy howto on the wiki, but that is for hoary. You can use it if you want, then upgrade to breezy then dapper
[09:25] <magnet> (and I don't want to spend too much time on it)
[09:25] <magnet> Warbo: link? I couldn't find it
[09:25] <JairunCaloth> eyequeue: basicly I've spent the last day trying to get back into my xubuntu install. Finally I managed to get here by going command line in grub. I want to make sure grub knows how to do it now
[09:25] <Warbo> magnet: Er, give me a sec
[09:25] <bcarr> anyone here know if there is a way to keep thread from autoexpanding in sylpheed claws?
[09:25] <pep100> Why can I see windows machines/drives/files on my network but I do not have permission to copy files to my ubuntu machine?
[09:25] <magnet> no0tic: what's listed here is the list of your devices as linux sees them
[09:25] <speeddemon> proably a bad question, but why can't i just play an mp3
[09:25] <jamieoliver22> does anyone know how you deal with duel monitors on ubuntu? how do you make it so it is an extended desktop?
[09:26] <no0tic> magnet, I know, I think it is line 21
[09:26] <magnet> the TI mass storage controler?
[09:26] <eyequeue> Coeus28, i don't think this will be the fix, but you can't hurt to try:  add "lowmem" to your F6 options
[09:26] <magnet> ok so you do a dmesg
[09:26] <Coeus28> magnet, on the original CD or the alt cd?
[09:26] <magnet> ie, dmesg | less, then look for Texas Instrument
[09:26] <magnet> "/Texas"
[09:26] <pep100> jamieoliver22: I used dual monitors with SUSE and Mandriva 2006. I had to do a lot playing with xorg.conf.
[09:27] <magnet> then find what device node was created (ie /dev/sdXX)
[09:27] <magnet> then mount it (fat32 I guess, so vfat)
[09:27] <jamieoliver22> ok thanks
[09:27] <speeddemon> why are these restricted
[09:27] <eyequeue> JairunCaloth, yeah, add the options in /boot/grub/menu.lst, and read the file about not "uncommenting" the line by removing the # :)
[09:27] <magnet> Coeus28: what CD ?
[09:27] <eyequeue> JairunCaloth, then update-grub
[09:27] <no0tic> magnet, dmesg | grep -i texas ?
[09:27] <Coeus28> I have 2 CDs.. the regular CD and an alternate CD for text mode installing
[09:28] <magnet> no0tic: somehow but it won't be on the same line
[09:28] <no0tic> magnet, nothing
[09:28] <Coeus28> there's 2 versions of ubuntu install cds... one is called alternate for text-mode
[09:28] <magnet> so pipe dmesg to less and look for Texas, and find the device around it
[09:28] <no0tic> magnet, I saw on forums it doesn't work
[09:28] <magnet> well look for mass storage
[09:28] <no0tic> magnet, thank anyway
[09:28] <magnet> hu; ok
[09:28] <magnet> well there are two things; maybe HAL don't recognizes it but Linux does
[09:29] <Warbo> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/WithFloppies?highlight=%28install%29
[09:29] <Warbo> aha
[09:29] <Warbo> found it
[09:29] <eyequeue> Coeus28, there are three, there is also the server install, which is text
[09:29] <magnet> thanks Warbo
[09:29] <spuddogg> Does anyone know where the screen savers are stored?  I'd like to edit the source, if I can find them.
[09:29] <boricua> is there a play command from command line to play mp3? from the console
[09:29] <eyequeue> !mp3 > boricua
[09:29] <magnet> spuddogg:  /usr/lib/xscreensaver/
[09:29] <rukuartic> boricua: mpg123 works well
[09:30] <Warbo> spuddogg: /usr/lib/xscreensaver I think (I wouldn't know about source, maybe "sudo apt-get source xscreensaver")
[09:30] <Ma|el> boricua try mp3blaster or vlc
[09:30] <magnet> spuddogg:  but these are binaries
[09:30] <spuddogg> magnet, Warbo:  Thanks!
[09:30] <rukuartic> boricua: But if you're looking for a full console music program, try MOC
[09:30] <no0tic> magnet, what is your problem dist-upgrading?
[09:30] <spuddogg> magnet, is there a way to edit the source, i.e. make the matrix one not rotate?
[09:30] <Rikkimaru> I cannot get audio to work, can anyone help me, please?
[09:31] <magnet> no0tic: i just wanna know it works; the laptop is a slow dog and only installing sarge will take some time, and I don't want to waste my time (what the Hell am I doing on IRC then? ;))
[09:31] <robokop> after i played some videos with movie player the entire sound system seems to be disfunctional
[09:31] <no0tic> Rikkimaru, did you try setting volumes to max?
[09:31] <Warbo> spuddogg: "sudo apt-get source xscreensaver" will get the source to screeensaver in the current directory, so you can work from there
[09:31] <eyequeue> !sound > Rikkimaru
[09:31] <magnet> spuddogg: well of course, this is Free software :) get the sources, re-compile
[09:31] <spuddogg> Warbo, thanks
[09:31] <no0tic> !sound > no0tic
[09:31] <Rikkimaru> no0tic: Yes, I've tried setting the volumes to max and such in alsa-mixer.
[09:31] <no0tic> magnet, just try and let us know :)
[09:32] <no0tic> Rikkimaru, so, alsa sees you card
[09:32] <magnet> yep but I'll try with the breezy badger floppies, I couldn't find them before
[09:32] <robokop> after i played some videos with movie player the entire sound system seems to be disfunctional
[09:32] <no0tic> Rikkimaru, paste on paste.ubuntu-it.org
[09:32] <Rikkimaru> no0tic: I think so anyway
[09:32] <no0tic> Rikkimaru, the output of lspci
[09:32] <Rikkimaru> no0tic: paste what?
[09:32] <Rikkimaru> no0tic: I see.
[09:32] <magnet> oops
[09:32] <eyequeue> magnet, breezy has floppies?
[09:32] <magnet> the tutorial on the wiki is what I wanted to do
[09:32] <Warbo> magnet: Remember to update Wikis so other people don't need to work it wout for themselves
[09:32] <bayzide1> Warbo: theres alot of .jar files
[09:33] <Warbo> bayzide1: Oh, well I am guessing "frostwire.jar"?
[09:33] <magnet> so I'll have to use sarge anyway, and debootstrap ubuntu
[09:33] <magnet> ok let's go :)
[09:33] <ofer> so how can it is possible to mount the usb wireless card? Bus 002 Device 006: ID 0471:1233 Philips
[09:33] <magnet> the hardest part will be finding 5 floppies still alive
[09:33] <magnet> :D
[09:33] <Warbo> mount a wifi card? what a cool hack
[09:33] <Warbo> magnet: tell me about it. I have so many, but none seem to work :(

[09:34] <magnet> same here, and I am a debianist originally, I used to always install debian with floppies/netinst and I spent more time on finding floppies than getting debian running ;)
[09:34] <robokop> after i played some videos with movie player the entire sound system seems to be disfunctional
[09:34] <eyequeue> constantine-xvi, ^

[09:40] <weswh-work> i set up a dyndns account, and then installed ddclient - ddclient seemed to be weird for me. i could never tell for sure if it was running or whatever. the point is that in the end, when i try to get to my dyndns domain from the outside, it attempts to go to 192.168.1.80
[09:40] <bayzide1> k
[09:40] <Warbo> er, frostwire is ugly
[09:40] <weswh-work> can anyone reccomend a more robust possibly graphical dyndns client?
[09:40] <Warbo> it doesn't even have English!
[09:41] <stefg> eyezdk: just try to avoid to write to ntfs. If you need to share date use a separate fat32 partition if you're not gonna share more than say 30GB, else use a ext2 filedrive for win and make an ext2 partiton for data sharing

[09:46] <eugman> Can anyone illuminate me on the differences between lynx and its two varients.
[09:46] <Warbo> varients?
[09:46] <eyequeue> eugman, which are the variants?
[09:46] <eugman> links2, elinks
[09:46] <Warbo> they are not lynx
[09:46] <eugman> iirc
[09:46] <eugman> Really I thought they were derivatives of some sort?
[09:46] <eyequeue> eugman, different code, different projects
[09:47] <eugman> oh
[09:47] <Warbo> can someone tell me the difference between Firefox and it's varient IE?
[09:47] <eyequeue> eugman, very less features
[09:47] <Warbo> :)
[09:47] <[1] wenko> My appoligies to the ops
[09:47] <eyequeue> eugman, lynx handles multiple protocols, the other handle only https and http
[09:47] <eugman> Warbo, Well they all sound the same are seem very similar so you'll have to exscuse me.
[09:48] <eugman> Are there any other text based browsers besides those and I think maybe w3m?
[09:48] <eyequeue> eugman, was there something more specific you needed to do perhaps?
[09:48] <Warbo> lynx is more useful generally, since it can use SSL which is what Ubuntu Wikis use (so you can read the graphics card driver pages)
[09:48] <eyequeue> eugman, those are the primary ones *nod*
[09:48] <rofl0r> i mounted an external usb hd with ntfs to /mnt/usbhd - but if i try to access, ubuntu says: permission denied. what can that be ?
[09:49] <robokop> after i played some videos with movie player the entire sound system seems to be disfunctional. could sb help me with that
[09:49] <eugman> Eyequeue, Well I was hoping to make a page on the wiki about using the command line as your desktop.
[09:49] <Warbo> rofl0r: "sudo mount /mnt/usbhd /mnt/usbhd -o uid=yourusername,remount" I htink
[09:49] <eyequeue> eugman, ahh :)  i'd recommend lynx myself, but to write that perhaps you should play with the others a bit too
[09:50] <rofl0r> thx warbo, gonna try that
[09:50] <Warbo> eugman: Get in touch with AA people (not the car ones or the alcoholic ones)
[09:50] <eugman> Which ones are left?
[09:50] <blurd> when i try to go into my mounted windows drive it says : You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "windows". any help would be greatly appreciated
[09:50] <Warbo> eugman: By the way, I doubt they are around these days

[09:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aa - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:50] <Warbo> !info bb
[09:50] <stefg>  rofl0r you'd need  'defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46'  in the mount-options , but you managed to bypass all hal-support for that by mounting it not to /media/some_sub_dir

[09:51] <rofl0r> thx stefg
[09:51] <robokop> after i played some videos with movie player the entire sound system seems to be disfunctional. could sb help me with that
[09:51] <eugman> Warbo, just to be clear I didn't mean a command line desktop in the most literal sense. That would look silly. I meant using screen and other programs to be effective without using X.
[09:52] <Warbo> I have never used screen....
[09:52] <blurd> when i try to go into my mounted windows drive it says : You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "windows". any help would be greatly appreciated
[09:52] <Warbo> I HAVE used "mplayer -vo caca" though

[09:58] <magnet> Rikkimaru: do you only have one soundcard? (sometimes it happens that you have an integrated chipset that you forget)

[10:09] <GTX> Ma|el, is there anyway to make it display in Mbits/
[10:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Rikkimaru: did they ever work
[10:09] <Ma|el> i don'T think so
[10:09] <geefour> can someone please tell me what happened to the "unmount" command?
[10:09] <Rikkimaru> Jack_Sparrow: no, it's a laptop and I haven't been able to get them working.
[10:10] <Ma|el> geefour it's called umount ;)
[10:10] <magnet> geefour: there never was any
[10:10] <magnet> :)
[10:10] <eugman> Also I forgot what it's called. What's the command line equivalent to system monitor?
[10:10] <magnet> ps ?
[10:10] <magnet> top ?
[10:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Rikkimaru: Does lspci (from terminal) show a sound card
[10:10] <magnet> yep Jack_Sparrow
[10:10] <magnet> oh
[10:10] <geefour> well... Nautillus is telling me that it can't unmount my second harddisk
[10:10] <magnet> you're answering ;)
[10:10] <magnet> sorry :P
[10:10] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[10:10] <gautam> geefour:  prob. it is in use
[10:11] <eugman> Isn't there a prettier one you can install?
[10:11] <geefour> because I'm not root
[10:11] <Jack_Sparrow> magnet: go ahead and take this for him
[10:11] <geefour> hmmm
[10:11] <eugman> Coveres memory usages and other things as well?
[10:11] <geefour> brb
[10:11] <Toaster56> hi
[10:11] <magnet> Jack_Sparrow: hehe :) already tried, I already helped enough for linux audio stuff for my lifetime :D
[10:11] <Toaster56> i have a small problem with compiling a new kernel, could someone help me?
[10:12] <Jack_Sparrow> magnet: I am no good at it...
[10:12] <Toaster56> thats the error when compiling it: install -p    -o root -g root -m 644 debian/changelog        debian/tmp-image/usr/share/doc/kernel-image-2.6.17.11/changelog.Debian

[10:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Toaster56: Please use pastebin for that
[10:13] <Toaster56> umm ok
[10:13] <Toaster56> but whats so bad about pasting something in here?
[10:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Toaster56: It is NOT allowed..
[10:14] <gnomefreak> Toaster56: there are over 800 people in here
[10:14] <Linuturk_code> Toaster56, it's against the rules
[10:14] <hsunda3> So .. what is the final verdict? EasyUbuntu, Automatix or something else?
[10:14] <gnomefreak> Toaster56: read the /topic for the link
[10:14] <Toaster56> Omg 800 people -.- didn't see that. I understand now
[10:14] <nalioth> Toaster56: pasting is rude
[10:14] <Jack_Sparrow> hsunda3: Neither
[10:14] <Toaster56> -.-
[10:14] <gnomefreak> hsunda3: use what you like
[10:15] <eyequeue> Toaster54, i think you're about to hear 800 reasons not to :P
[10:15] <Ma|el> eugman:   ls -lart /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list :)
[10:15] <hsunda3> Jack_Sparrow: ah! I expected as much. So what do I need to follow in order to get everything these 2 provide? (I wasn't keen on either one. I would like to know what changes are being made on my machine)
[10:15] <gnomefreak> hsunda3: we do not support either so if they break use the appropreate channels :)
[10:15] <Toaster56> yes i see -.-
[10:16] <Jack_Sparrow> hsunda3: In here we teach you how to do it for yourself
[10:16] <Toaster56> Here, this is the error i get. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22659
[10:16] <hsunda3> gnomefreak: no no .. I don't intend to come here for the support aspect... indeed, I would like to know what are the packages they install and from which repos they do so. I can write a script like Automatix or EU myself if I knew what is being installed (for all the media and stuff)
[10:16] <Rikkimaru> Jack_Sparrow: It shows  Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)
[10:17] <gnomefreak> hsunda3: you would have to ask in thier channel
[10:17] <hsunda3> gnomefreak: Ok thanks! I guess I will just download them and look at their source instead :)

[10:18] <superm1> Hey guys, I've been running into some troubles with network-manager.  I have an atheros card that won't scan for networks sporadically.   Scanning using iwlist ath0 scanning works fine.  In /var/log/daemon.log - I get
[10:18] <superm1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22660.  Any ideas?
[10:18] <stian> Greetings, I just installed Ubuntu on a computer, and I installed LightTPD. I can access http on localhost, but not over LAN, any suggestions?
[10:19] <gautam> firewall?
[10:19] <eyequeue> !info tuxracer
[10:19] <ubotu> Package tuxracer does not exist in any distro I know
[10:19] <gnomefreak> adri_: apt-cache search tcl and pick the one you need
[10:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !firewall
[10:19] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed with iptables (in the command line) or firestarter (gui, can also setup connection sharing)
[10:19] <sharperguy> ok why dos OOo Calc keep dieing
[10:19] <eyequeue> hmm
[10:19] <magnet> stian:  lightTPd bound to localhost and not the IP on the subnet
[10:19] <sharperguy> Cant even type two cells before it crashes and then restores the file
[10:20] <adri_> gnomefreak: thank you, i'm going to try this but i don't think it will work
[10:20] <stian> magnet, how do I fix that?
[10:20] <Nizo> Hi is there anyone who can help me with wifit setup?
[10:20] <gnomefreak> adri_: i know it will
[10:20] <Ramunas> how can I join multiple zip files to one?
[10:20] <gnomefreak> adri_: i think its tcl1.8
[10:20] <lupine_85> Nizo: which chipset?
[10:20] <magnet> stian: in the conf files (I guess /etc/lightthpd/something.conf) you change a parameter like "Bind"
[10:20] <stian> magnet: yeah, I found it, thanks :)
[10:20] <magnet> np :)
[10:21] <Toaster56> well ill just ask again, maybe nobody saw it. Could someone help me with this problem, that occurs when compiling a new kernel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22659
[10:21] <Nizo> Lupine: kart is D-link air g-520+
[10:21] <Nizo> looking for chipset
[10:22] <knapper> can someone help me mount a minisd card? I see the mount under "Computer" but when I try and open it it says "no mount volume"...
[10:22] <magnet> its gonna cut
[10:22] <magnet> (debian installer dhcp'ing)
[10:22] <magnet> :\
[10:23] <magnet> yeah, I removed the ethernet cable in time ;)

[10:25] <iratik> Is it possible to remove ssh (and if not , at least expilicitly define what IP addresses may attempt a connection)?
[10:25] <LRushing> I like using iptables.
[10:26] <trappist> iratik: yes and yes
[10:26] <magnet> yep iratik
[10:26] <LRushing> but I think you can also in /etc/ssh/sshd-config (or something close)
[10:26] <magnet> you can authorize only pubkeys only from certain IPs
[10:26] <iratik> details?
[10:26] <magnet> (you can't get more secure than that without involving a firewall)
[10:26] <trappist> or in /etc/hosts.allow|hosts.deny, which is preferable
[10:26] <magnet> no
[10:26] <magnet> the /etc/hosts.* files are for inetd
[10:27] <trappist> magnet: once you've restricted it to certain ips, a firewall won't get you anything new
[10:27] <trappist> magnet: where I come from (redhat, mandrake etc.) ssh uses inetd.  not so here?
[10:27] <magnet> yes trappist
[10:27] <magnet> a firewall can avoid any answer (ie no tcp-reset)
[10:27] <iratik> So where do I configure if it uses hosts.deny or hosts.allow
[10:28] <magnet> and ssh runs on standalone, and I never saw it running from inetd
[10:28] <iratik> (is there a good tutorial for all this?)
[10:28] <magnet> start with /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[10:28] <magnet> iratik:
[10:28] <magnet> you set it to only allow pubkeys
[10:28] <magnet> you refuse pubkeys on a per user basis but you allow only a global file
[10:29] <iratik> which configuration directive is "only allow pubkeys" and what does it mean?
[10:29] <magnet> then in the file, you list the pubkeys you'll allow (you can decide to put only 2048 bit keys so you know you're secure for some time to come)
[10:29] <trappist> magnet: that's true (about the firewall) but it doesn't make you any more secure
[10:29] <LRushing> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --source 123.123.123.123 --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
[10:29] <LRushing> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j DENY
[10:29] <LRushing> that make sense?
[10:29] <iratik> to me?
[10:30] <LRushing> yep
[10:30] <trappist> LRushing: you mean REJECT
[10:30] <magnet> and juste before the pubkey you put a restriction string
[10:30] <LRushing> -j DROP
[10:30] <trappist> or DROP
[10:30] <LRushing> oops
[10:30] <magnet> which will tell from WHERE you accept the key
[10:30] <LRushing> DROP
[10:30] <magnet> using a firewall is on another layer
[10:30] <magnet> it's interesting but just not the same thing
[10:30] <iratik> I want to reject all access to the system except for (ports 80,21,20,443 and 81) to the local network
[10:31] <LRushing> what's your local networks ip range?
[10:31] <magnet> well you should indeed use a firewall (iptables is sufficient) for that
[10:31] <LRushing> I'll write out the commands
[10:33] <trappist> iratik: step one there should be to make sure you only have stuff *listening* on those ports.  once that's done, set up a firewall
[10:33] <ltR20^^> Hello I have a major problem
[10:33] <ltR20^^> in Ubuntu the MENU bar is disapeared
[10:34] <eyequeue> ltR20^^, "gnome-panel" is the app
[10:34] <eyequeue> ltR20^^, try running it from alt-f2 and see if that helps
[10:34] <Toaster54> Hi, could someone help me? i am compiling the latest kernel from kernel.org and get the following error: when compiling paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22659
[10:35] <ana> in nautilus, how do you get to view the tree in the panel when you do 'not' have any 'panel' inside the menu 'view'?
[10:35] <magnet> ana: F9
[10:36] <trappist> Toaster54: you got that when using what command
[10:36] <magnet> (then you can select the tree view)
[10:36] <Toaster54> wait a moment trappist im looking for the command
[10:36] <iratik> Why does "sudo -s" open to root without authenticating me?
[10:37] <LRushing> you authentacted earlier?
[10:37] <eyequeue> iratik, did you tun sudo within the past 5 minutes?
[10:37] <trappist> iratik: probably because you've given sudo your password in the last 15 minutes
[10:37] <eyequeue> run
[10:37] <trappist> eyequeue: default cache time is 15 minutes
[10:37] <magnet> iratik: sudo -k to kill your auth :)
[10:37] <iratik> second question
[10:37] <eyequeue> trappist, yeah, lousy typing here, thanks
[10:37] <iratik> why is the root account even enabled, i disabled it
[10:37] <magnet> Toaster54: are you sure you're building the kernel correctly?
[10:37] <magnet> and not trying to build a package?
[10:37] <Toaster54> yess
[10:38] <trappist> iratik: root exists, he just doesn't have a password, so he's only accessible via sudo or by booting to single user mode
[10:38] <magnet> your error means you're doing something like dpkg-make
[10:38] <Toaster54> i am doing it exactly the same way as before altering the config :/
[10:38] <magnet> ok
[10:38] <stefg> Toaster54: read http://ubuntustudio.com/wiki/index.php/Dapper:Vanilla_Kernel_With_Realtime_Preemption
[10:38] <eyequeue> iratik, you "disabled" it how?  that should be by default
[10:38] <iratik> (Let me rephrase, I thought I disabled root - how do I redisable it)
[10:38] <iratik> (i enabled it with sudo passwd)
[10:38] <Toaster54> this is the command i used: sudo make-kpkg --initrd --revision i686ver1 binary
[10:38] <ana> thanks magnet but it didn't work ...
[10:39] <trappist> iratik: sudo passwd -l root
[10:39] <Toaster54> well i changed revision to 64ver1
[10:39] <magnet> ana: hu :)
[10:39] <iratik> thanks
[10:39] <blue-frog> iratik: passwd -d   see man passwd
[10:39] <ana> hu?
[10:39] <trappist> blue-frog: passwd -l should return root to its default state
[10:39] <ana> magnet: hu?
[10:40] <magnet> (im on the phone brb)
[10:40] <mama> can anyone tell me how to get the program called frostwire?
[10:40] <blue-frog> trappist: -l disable passwd  -d erase the passwd
[10:40] <gusto5> elo.
[10:40] <axisme> hi, what do i need to add in xorg.conf to increase the shared memory ?
[10:41] <stefg> Toaster54: first of all /usr/src is the dir to build kernels in... then check your .config and  your _syntox_
[10:41] <Toaster54> _syntox_ ?
[10:41] <stefg> syntax
[10:41] <trappist> syntax
[10:41] <Toaster54> ah ok
[10:41] <Toaster54> what syntax?
[10:42] <Nizo> Hi is there anyone who can help my with wifi problem?
[10:42] <magnet> ana: what you want is to see the tree view of your file system on the left in nautilus?
[10:42] <gusto5> Nizo, what's the nature of your wifi problem?
[10:43] <alex222> Hello I have a problem
[10:43] <alex222> I have NO titlebar on top of windows
[10:43] <stefg> Toaster54: might as well be that a 64bit kernel won't build
[10:43] <alex222> how do i fix this?
[10:43] <joshritger> what is the best media player for ubuntu
[10:43] <magnet> alex222: launch metacity :)
[10:43] <alex222> in?
[10:43] <magnet> in a shell, try "metacity"
[10:43] <alex222> ahh thanks!
[10:43] <stefg> joshritger: vlc 0.8.5
[10:43] <alex222> ahhh
[10:43] <alex222> thanks alot
[10:43] <magnet> np :)
[10:44] <Toaster54> ah ok
[10:44] <joshritger> i have .84 how do i update to .85
[10:44] <Toaster54> thats the most pissible reason
[10:44] <Toaster54> LOL
[10:44] <joshritger> i have the older version
[10:44] <joshritger> sorry
[10:44] <Toaster54> possible i mean
[10:44] <mama> can anyone help with frostwire or gtk please?
[10:44] <ana> magnet: yes that is exactly what i want
[10:44] <stefg> joshritger: see http://nightlies.videolan.org/
[10:45] <factotum> is there any recommnendation from anyone as a replacement application for something like soundforge?
[10:45] <magnet> ana: well hitting F9 works here, or go in the Menu > View > Lateral Panel
[10:45] <joshritger> can i get it from synaptic or a repository?
[10:45] <gusto5> Nizo, you still there?
[10:45] <magnet> and then select Tree View on top of the panel
[10:45] <ana> i have 'no' lateral panel in the view menu
[10:45] <magnet> mama: what about GTK?
[10:45] <Nizo> gusto5: After upgradinst distro my wifi card stopped working i cant connect to my LAN anymore. dont know why i set everything correctly. My card is Dlink air g520+
[10:45] <ana> magnet, i know i can do that, but ii do not have that item in the menu!
[10:45] <mama> oh thanks....when i try and open the program it will not open
[10:46] <cbell> Hey guys.  I have a fun question.  I was able to open "network servers" and browse the windows domain.  However, I shared a folder via samba last night, and now I cannot browse the network through the gui.
[10:46] <gusto5> Nizo, what did you upgrade on your dist-upgrade?
[10:46] <cbell> Any ideas?
[10:46] <axisme> hi, what do i need to add in xorg.conf to increase the shared memory ?
[10:46] <magnet> ana: you have, say, Historic, Information, but no Tree View?
[10:46] <factotum> im also looking for something to replace the app i used to use called LeafDrums
[10:46] <ana> i don't have historic infomation
[10:46] <axisme> or graphics memory i guess
[10:46] <holycow> so using dd ... one can image any file system ... correct?  it just copies bit for bit, not at file system level?
[10:46] <magnet> what items are available to you?
[10:46] <cbell> Any ideas?
[10:46] <Rikkimaru> How do i add a network scanner?
[10:46] <magnet> yep holycow that's it
[10:46] <holycow> danke
[10:47] <eyequeue> holycow, well the bs= option
[10:47] <magnet> if=  inputfile of = output file
[10:47] <Nizo> yes, it didnt work so I Ireinstalled whole system no effect...
[10:47] <mama> magnet...any suggestions?!
[10:47] <magnet> cbell: no :)
[10:47] <cbell> haha
[10:48] <magnet> mama: well what's your question precisely?
[10:48] <cbell> Like, it shows the windows network, but when I go into that, there's no domain or computers.
[10:48] <mama> when i try to open GTK i will not open
[10:48] <gusto5> Nizo, what i meant was, what programs did you dist-upgrade?
[10:48] <stefg> very useful command to waste CPU on nothing: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1 count =65335
[10:48] <Rikkimaru> How do I add a network scanner?  The documentation I've found is pretty worthless.
[10:48] <magnet> mama: what do you mean by GTK? GTK is a programming library
[10:48] <mama> gtk-gnutella
[10:48] <magnet> ok, that's not GTK
[10:48] <drezha> why wont this command exclude the folders I dislike?
[10:48] <drezha> tar -cvpzf /home/chris/backup.tgz /home/chris/Documents/ --exclude=/home/chris/Documents/My Music --exclude=/home/chris/Documents/My Videos
[10:49] <magnet> mama: try with synaptic
[10:49] <mama> i did
[10:49] <jordan> how do i install a program on linux im new 2 this
[10:49] <eyequeue> mama, "gtk" is a gnome/graphics tool kit, for programmers ... it's not a program you run
[10:49] <axisme> hi, what do i need to add in xorg.conf to increase the graphics memory ?
[10:49] <Rikkimaru> jordan, read up on "Synaptic Package Manager"
[10:49] <Nizo> gusto5: by automatic updates integrated in ubuntu. what was possible to upgrade i upgraded.
[10:49] <mama> i use it to dl music and such
[10:49] <eyequeue> jordan, sudo apt-get install foo, or use synpatic
[10:49] <magnet> jordan: what kind of program? something that does something generic, or a specific program?
[10:50] <Tu13es> Can I install Ubuntu on a USB drive so that I can boot to it on multiple systems? (that is, my Mac and other non-Mac PCs)
[10:50] <Rikkimaru> How do I add a network scanner?  The documentation I've found is pretty worthless :(.
[10:50] <eyequeue> mama, you said "gtk" yesterday too
[10:50] <gusto5> Nizo, then im not quite sure dist-upgrade is to be blamed. By not working, do you mean the manager can't connect, of the manager doesn't exist?
[10:50] <magnet> mama: what's your problem with gnutella?
[10:50] <eyequeue> Rikkimaru, sudo apt-get install snort, or whatever
[10:50] <mama> well thats what i have been using for about a year now to dl music
[10:50] <jordan> well i would like to download some games on my computer from cds.. and cant figure it out.. also my girlfriend would like to upload her pictures from her digtal camrea
[10:50] <Nizo> gusto5: I cant see network but i just cant connect to it
[10:51] <mama> magnet: when i try and open it will not open
[10:51] <gusto5> Nizo, if its a SSID connection, try re-entering the information.
[10:51] <magnet> try opening it from the shell and look for the error message you get on the web
[10:51] <drezha> why doesn't this exclude the folder I'm trying to exclude?
[10:51] <mama> im not sure how to do that
[10:51] <drezha> tar -cvpzf /home/chris/backup.tgz /home/chris/Documents/ --exclude=/home/chris/Documents/My Music --exclude=/home/chris/Documents/My Videos
[10:51] <Jack_Sparrow> jordan: What games are you trying to run under linux
[10:51] <apokryphos> !games
[10:51] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[10:51] <eyequeue> Tu13es, first, you can't do that, you need arch-specific (hence the 3 ppc cds differ from the i386 cds)
[10:52] <Tu13es> eyequeue: it's an Intel Mac.
[10:52] <mama> i was also told to use frostwire.
[10:52] <TheProphet[S] > hi there
[10:52] <gusto5> hello
[10:52] <quiet> frostwire is nice.
[10:52] <drezha> forstwire works
[10:52] <Jack_Sparrow> 879 people say hello back
[10:52] <eyequeue> Tu13es, second, you could perhaps do a very minimal install to it, and if your bios supports booting from it, you could ... does the bios?
[10:52] <quiet> i prefer gifTcurs...  but whatever.
[10:52] <Rikkimaru> eyequeue: I actually meant a Scanner, that is used to scan papers.
[10:52] <mama> ok well how do i get that ...im sorry im new and im really trying to understand
[10:53] <magnet> Tu13es: you can, but that doesn't mean it easy/eye-candy
[10:53] <Nizo> i tried it by networking and shell too. Didnet help. I dont understand what is Bcast it is the same as Gateway? Because for gateway i entered 192.168.0.1 and Bcast is set to 192.168.0.255. is it normall?
[10:53] <eyequeue> Rikkimaru, ahh, as in sane?
[10:53] <eyequeue> !sane
[10:53] <ubotu> sane: scanner graphical frontends. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.14-1 (dapper), package size 103 kB, installed size 324 kB
[10:53] <Rikkimaru> eyequeue: yea
[10:53] <TheProphet[S] > I installed the new nvidia drivers on my linux box, they work fine but there's still something left from the previous version for some reason
[10:53] <magnet> mama: open a shell window (terminal) and type gtk-gnutella or gnutella (I don't know the actual name, I don't use it)
[10:53] <quiet> it
[10:53] <quiet> s gnutella
[10:53] <jordan> does anyone use a kodak digtal camrea with linux
[10:53] <eyequeue> Rikkimaru, sudo apt-get install sane, i guess, i don't own one so have no experience there
[10:53] <zandaa> hello?
[10:53] <TheProphet[S] > how do I make sure I have removed everything from the previous version of the driver?
[10:53] <Rikkimaru> eyequeue: ah..
[10:54] <Jack_Sparrow> gtk-gnutella showed up in applications/internet for me
[10:54] <axisme> hi, what do i need to add in xorg.conf to increase the graphics memory ?
[10:54] <zandaa> can anyone help me mount my NTFS partition on a live-run of Dapper?
[10:54] <quiet> zandaa, as read-only?
[10:54] <Jack_Sparrow> axisme: Do you mean increase the resolution?
[10:54] <zandaa> quiet: yes
[10:54] <mama> magnet: it is telling me that i have an old version and i try to upgrade and it gives me the same message
[10:55] <quiet> zandaa, mount -t ntfs....
[10:55] <zandaa> quiet mount -t ntfs? that's it?
[10:55] <paolo_> f
[10:55] <lupine_85> you need to add the device file and the mountpoint :)
[10:55] <quiet> zandaa, mount -t ntfs <partition_name> <mount_point>
[10:55] <lupine_85> man mount
[10:55] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow, nope. I want it to use 128mb of my system memory for graphics...i dunno where to set uit
[10:55] <TheProphet[S] > zandaa: you need to create a folder like /media/windoz
[10:55] <zandaa> quiet: thanks, that's gonna help :)
[10:56] <TheProphet[S] > zandaa: and mount it there
[10:56] <magnet> mama: well, I can't help you since i don't know the specifics of gnutella
[10:56] <zandaa> theprophet: I know, I already have a mountpoint
[10:56] <Jack_Sparrow> axisme: I have neverheard of anyone doing it
[10:56] <TheProphet[S] > so guys how do I remove some drivers from the sistem?
[10:56] <stefg> zandaa:  /dev/hda[drive_number]  -o nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 /mnt
[10:56] <mama> ok thanks...is there another program i could get that u are familiar with?
[10:56] <notre05> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[10:56] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow, oh
[10:56] <magnet> I don't use p2p
[10:57] <mama> or if someone can help me get the program frostwire
[10:57] <notre05> hiiiiiiii fuckers
[10:57] <Czar331> Can I convert a desktop install to a server install without too much trouble? or can I make it so a desktop manager doesn't load on start up? Command line is fine with me.
[10:57] <zandaa> quiet: permissions gone wrong :S no permission to access
[10:57] <lupine_85> Czar: apt-get remove --purge [x|k] ubuntu-desktop should do it
[10:57] <quiet> zandaa, sudo su -    then do it.
[10:57] <TheProphet[S] > you can access it as root only
[10:57] <Doodluv> sudo 1st
[10:58] <zandaa> quiet: I always use Sudo when in Ubuntu
[10:58] <Jack_Sparrow> axisme: Dosent mean it cant be done...  Just never heard of it being done. Other wise why would people buy 128 or 256 cards if any card could share systme memory
[10:58] <quiet> i always just enable root..  :P
[10:58] <gnomefreak> lupine_85: you cant remove --purge a meta package with apt-get
[10:58] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow, its onboard graphics...
[10:58] <zandaa> maybe restarting the disc will help, seeing as I've a lot of failed attempts <_<
[10:58] <TheProphet[S] > zandaa: you might need to set the permission to read it as user only
[10:58] <lupine_85> ah, good point :)
[10:58] <zandaa> TheProphet[S] : read as user only?
[10:58] <gnomefreak> unless installed with aptitude you have to either app by app or remove the base lib
[10:59] <Jack_Sparrow> axisme: BIos is where I would look to set that up.
[10:59] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow, not for awhile now jack..they set operating systems take care of it these days
[10:59] <stefg> !info gtkorphan
[10:59] <ubotu> gtkorphan: A graphical tool to find and remove orphaned libraries. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.1-1 (dapper), package size 25 kB, installed size 280 kB
[10:59] <TheProphet[S] > zandaa: yes, or to make it easier for youself just type su on a console and start your browser from command line
[10:59] <gnomefreak> point taken you can also use that
[10:59] <gnomefreak> ty stefg
[11:00] <zandaa> TheProphet[S] : err?
[11:00] <lupine_85> pong
[11:00] <quiet> !ping
[11:00] <ubotu> ping: connection timeout
[11:00] <eyequeue> TheProphet[S] , running a browser as root?  not safe
[11:01] <lupine_85> hmm. `apt-cache depends ubuntu-desktop`
[11:01] <qatsi> i still cant get a folder to be shared :(
[11:01] <TheProphet[S] > zandaa: probably not if you re still connected
[11:01] <TheProphet[S] > are*
[11:01] <kevinG> how do i use a .run file?
[11:01] <qatsi> is there like a samba graphical admin :
[11:01] <gnomefreak> apt-cache show ubuntu-desktop
[11:01] <constantine-xvi> kevinG: sh <.run file>
[11:01] <krashmanz> I am having a slight issue with azureus in ubuntu dapper drake
[11:01] <kevinG> ok thanks
[11:01] <gnomefreak> ubuntu-desktop if you get rid of libgtk it should remove all
[11:01] <eyequeue> kevinG, first identify it with /usr/bin/file
[11:02] <stefg> kevinG: sh foobar.run
[11:02] <gnomefreak> krashmanz: did you install java?
[11:02] <krashmanz> I keep getting an out of memory error, I can't change the disk cache in azureus either so I need to change it elsewhere
[11:02] <eyequeue> people are presuming it's a shell script somehow?
[11:03] <gnomefreak> most .run files can be ran with sh file.run
[11:04] <LRushing> I gave up on azureus for ubunut
[11:04] <RobNyc_C> LRushing, ram hog ?
[11:04] <acidspoon> hi @ll
[11:04] <LRushing> yeah, and REALLY long time to validate files
[11:04] <RobNyc_C> ouch
[11:04] <iratik> Can anyone recommend a good security auditing firm
[11:04] <stefg> LRushing: good news is that utorrent runs well with wine
[11:04] <RobNyc_C> I use azureus on OSX cuz it makes torrents go faster
[11:04] <acidspoon> does anybody know how to play cd+g files?
[11:04] <LRushing> I've been  using rtorrent
[11:04] <tarzeau> iratik: company, you mean?
[11:04] <RobNyc_C> I use utorrent in windows but im never on windows
[11:04] <iratik> yeah, what tarzeau said
[11:05] <LRushing> compiled the latest version and it workds nice.
[11:05] <kevinG> I use azureus...doesn't take long for me
[11:05] <RobNyc_C> and here on my old pc I dont really use torrents i use it on my main pc
[11:05] <LRushing> I like utorrent on windows also
[11:05] <tarzeau> iratik: where/
[11:05] <RobNyc_C> LRushing, bittornado is my next fav
[11:05] <iratik> in midwestern united states
[11:05] <eyequeue> acidspoon, what are they?
[11:05] <Jack_Sparrow> bbl 100 degrees out and I have to climb under the sink, fire up the torch and work on plumbing...   Later all
[11:05] <LRushing> I don't mind the ncurses versions
[11:05] <LRushing> I like rtorrent (so far)
[11:05] <lupine_85> ktorrent :)
[11:05] <Crippy-Boy> Is there any way to apply the ubuntu patches to a vanilla kernel?
[11:05] <eyequeue> iratik, is counterpane considered midwest?
[11:06] <krashmanz> gnomefreak can I pm you ?
[11:06] <LRushing> plus I can use screen and disconnect / logoff without loosing the downloads
[11:06] <acidspoon> a tool to play karaoke files
[11:06] <gnomefreak> krashmanz: im busy atm whats up?
[11:07] <SunOfDarkness> hi @all
[11:07] <Crippy-Boy> Lo.
[11:07] <eyequeue> iratik, california, no, sorry
[11:08] <krashmanz> I get a failure to write to disk  out of memory error in azureus but when I try to change the disk cache it won't let me through azureus so I need to find the config file
[11:08] <dD0T> Can anyone give me a hint on which multimedia install script I can suppose for novice users who want to try ubuntu? I heared about AutomatiX but there were some discussions on the mailingslist...is it safe to use? Are there alternatives? Thx in advance!
[11:08] <Crippy-Boy> Easy Ubuntu
[11:08] <zandaa> back
[11:08] <Crippy-Boy> Automatix is dangerous. Well it can be
[11:08] <gnomefreak> krashmanz: i dont use it (it uses java)
[11:08] <Jack_Sparrow> DOnt use easyubuntu or automatix
[11:08] <Boudewijn36> krashmanz, try ktorrent, it works for me
[11:09] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: so can gparted
[11:09] <HumanPrototype> how can i make a video of my desktop?
[11:09] <zandaa> :S
[11:09] <Crippy-Boy> gnomefreak: What exactly does gparted have to do with Easy ubuntu/Automatix.
[11:09] <alex222> hey how do i mount my hds?
[11:09] <krashmanz> I guess I can try something else
[11:09] <krashmanz> I really enjoy azureues though
[11:09] <alex222> i have two HD icons on my desktop but i dont have access to them
[11:09] <gnomefreak> dD0T: automatix or easyubuntu for info on either go to #automatix or #easyubuntu
[11:09] <stefg> !mount
[11:09] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[11:09] <alex222> i use to with breezy
[11:09] <zandaa> TheProphet[S] : you mentioned something about user access?
[11:09] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: you said automatix is dangerous
[11:09] <gfxstyler> hi
[11:09] <SunOfDarkness> hi
[11:09] <gfxstyler> is there a way to get my F1 key in gnome back=?
[11:09] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: so is gparted
[11:10] <Boudewijn36> Kragnerac, me too but its kinda slow because it runs on java
[11:10] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: have you looked at the source lately?
[11:10] <gfxstyler> when i type F1 in gnome-terminal gnome wants to display a help message
[11:10] <dD0T> HumanPrototype: You can use vnc + vnc2swf, but that creates flash (which is kind of cool)
[11:10] <gfxstyler> i dont want that
[11:10] <Crippy-Boy> gnomefreak: So can skiing down a mountain backwards nakid, but that never came into the convo, So why gparted?
[11:10] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow: did it
[11:10] <dD0T> gnomefreak: Thx
[11:10] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: automatix isnt any more dangerous than gparted
[11:10] <nozorro> gfxstyler: i think you can change thtat through Edit > Keyb. Shortcuts in the Terminal
[11:10] <LRushing> Adobe makes something.....
[11:11] <HumanPrototype> dD0T, is vnc installed with ubuntu?
[11:11] <Jack_Sparrow> axisme: Good, please post your xorg in pastebin for me
[11:11] <gnomefreak> !vnc
[11:11] <ubotu> vnc is a way of doing remote desktop.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !freenx.
[11:11] <gfxstyler> nozorro: thanks :)
[11:11] <nozorro> gfxstyler: your option is at that bottom of the list opened
[11:11] <Crippy-Boy> gnomefreak: no but when theres a safer option, why not use it. Personally i dont use either but if someone wants to...
[11:12] <alex222> does anyone have a command to give my user permissions to my drives?
[11:12] <axisme> sure, im gonna change the moust bit tho..il paste as it is now though
[11:12] <dD0T> Crippy-Box: Well, I don't need to use it. But novice users won't sit down and do a step by step tutorial on how to install all the multimedia stuff which is preinstalled on any windows pc they can buy...
[11:13] <SunOfDarkness> @alex222 : try man chown
[11:13] <magnet> alex222: well there are different mount options for that
[11:13] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: i dont use either myself but automatix code has changed alot the only one we support in this channel is do it yourself. but false info is not a good thing. definitly on a subject so flamable hence why the factoid for it changed
[11:13] <magnet> it depends on your filesystem
[11:14] <alxandra_> is there any way to use my cache of apt on another computer (by copying)?
[11:14] <alex222> magnet ok
[11:14] <alex222> my user is 'alex'
[11:14] <alex222> how can give myself permissions?
[11:14] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22672
[11:14] <dD0T> gnomefreak: Hmm...I thought you perhaps could get neutral information in this channel...but you are right. It's for supporting Ubuntu and not alien scripts...but why flame? Are people getting religious about "Do it yourself"?
[11:14] <magnet> what filesystem?
[11:14] <alex222> NTFS
[11:15] <eyequeue> alxandra_, scp /var/cache/apt/archives/* otherhost:/var/cache/apt/archives/
[11:15] <gnomefreak> dD0T: that is what we are here for
[11:15] <SunOfDarkness> NTFS *grrrr*
[11:15] <magnet> you type "id alex"
[11:15] <alex222> i have two NTFS drives, hdb1 ,hdb5
[11:15] <magnet> then you'll get the uid
[11:15] <Crippy-Boy> gnomefreak: False info? I dont use either so im not qualified to comment really as i said, but im just passing on info that has been on varius forums/mailing lists plenty of times.
[11:15] <gnomefreak> dD0T: both use 3rd party repos. hence not supported by ubuntu
[11:15] <magnet> and you pass the -o uid=<your uid> when you mount the disk
[11:15] <alpha> anyone know of a good guild on setting up a vpn sever with both pptp and ssh2 auth?
[11:15] <LRushing> alxandra: rsync -a /var/cache/apt/archives/ user@remote::/var/cache/apt/archives/
[11:15] <magnet> (in /etc/fstab, you just add uid=<your uid> to the options)
[11:15] <alxandra_> eyequeue can this code make synaptic see my packages?
[11:15] <eyequeue> alxandra_, yes
[11:16] <alex222> my UID is 1000
[11:16] <alxandra_> thanx
[11:16] <zandaa> >_<
[11:16] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: automatix is as unsafe as using a 3rd party repo
[11:16] <dD0T> gnomefreak: Well they have to to get that kind of packages it think^^Hmm...not crowded the channels....
[11:16] <eyequeue> alxandra_, well, to send the files there, you need write access on the remote machine of course
[11:16] <magnet> then add uid=1000 to the options for the ntfs partition in /etc/fstab
[11:16] <lupine_85> gnomefreak: as unsafe as installing the contents of several 3rd party repos, blindly ;)
[11:17] <alxandra_> eyequeue, i burned them on a cd.
[11:17] <gnomefreak> Crippy-Boy: it backs up anything it over writes you cant figure out how to use the backups thats not automatix fault
[11:17] <eyequeue> alxandra_, you could send then to your user account $HOME (if ubuntu) and sudo mv *.deb /var/cache/apt/archives
[11:17] <mma> alex222 you fstab would look something like this: /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[11:17] <sum> hai sar.........
[11:17] <eyequeue> alxandra_, well, just use the command i just gave, but "cp" not "mv" :)
[11:17] <gnomefreak> you want to continue the automatix talk try in #automatix
[11:17] <alex222> where is the fstab?
[11:17] <alxandra_> o.k thank you
[11:17] <joshritger> what repository do i need for amaroke
[11:17] <zandaa> :( this is really starting to tick me off, trying to mount a NTFS read-only by sudo mount -t ntfs <bla> <bla>
[11:17] <eyequeue> alex222, /etc
[11:18] <gnomefreak> give info you cant back up or that is false needs to be kept to yourself
[11:18] <eyequeue> alxandra_, no prob
[11:18] <gnomefreak> joshritger: the normal repos
[11:18] <gnomefreak> !info amarok
[11:18] <ubotu> amarok: versatile and easy to use audio player for KDE. In component main, is optional. Version 2:1.3.9-0ubuntu4 (dapper), package size 7630 kB, installed size 18672 kB
[11:18] <joshritger> It isnt coming up in synaptic
[11:18] <mma> In a terminal: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[11:18] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow: did you see it?
[11:18] <gnomefreak> joshritger: main
[11:18] <eyequeue> joshritger, it has no e on the end, if that was the problem
[11:18] <joshritger> oh crap spelled it wrong
[11:18] <lupine_85> gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[11:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Got it thanks, I learned something...
[11:18] <eyequeue> joshritger, amarok
[11:18] <alpha> zandaa: then add the right group to your account
[11:18] <TurtleBoots> !jump
[11:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jump - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:18] <hikenboot> hello all--it seems from my analysis that x-window-system-core and xbase-clients ubuntu-live depend on openoffice and its language packs...can anyone confirm this?
[11:18] <alpha> uid 1000 is the basic user
[11:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Trying realy hard to find reasons not to climb back under the sink
[11:19] <gnomefreak> TurtleBoots: dont play with the bot
[11:19] <alex222> how do 'reboot' the fstab?
[11:19] <alxandra_> eyequeue, do i need to write another code to make synaptic see them or it will see automatically after reload?
[11:19] <TurtleBoots> gnomefreak: I wasn't playing
[11:19] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow: hehe...always something new to learn. My system seems alot faster now
[11:19] <mma> the sink might be more productive.
[11:19] <magnet> hikenboot: no they don't
[11:19] <magnet> but ubuntu-desktop does
[11:19] <gnomefreak> TurtleBoots: what is jump than?
[11:19] <zandaa> alpha: right group? what do ye mean?
[11:19] <TurtleBoots> gnomefreak: typo
[11:19] <eyequeue> alxandra_, if you put them in that directory, it will sense them automatically, no reboot or anything
[11:19] <techII> anyone want to point me to a decent doc about apache2 and vhosts?
[11:20] <axisme> Jack_Sparrow: sleep time for me, see you
[11:20] <sum> why?
[11:20] <eyequeue> alxandra_, they are pre-fetched, but not installed.  i wanted to be clear on that, but i think you knew
[11:20] <alpha> zandaa: figure out which group has rw access to ntfs partions then add your user to that group
[11:20] <hikenboot> magnet, i have a list of about 50 packages i am removing and one or more is removing those files which i dont want removed...if i pastebin can you take a good guess as to which ones are removing those packages?
[11:20] <Jack_Sparrow> goodnight and thanks for the tip..
[11:20] <Boudewijn36> alex222, mount -a [-t|-O]  ...     : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab
[11:20] <zandaa> alpha: wouldn't that be gid 0 a.k.a. root group?
[11:21] <stefg> ntfs mounts need  -o umask=007,gid=46
[11:21] <alpha> zandaa: no root is all god mode
[11:21] <magnet> hikenboot: it's a package dependent on ubuntu-base, which is itself dependent on x-server* etc (and openoffice)
[11:21] <zandaa> alpha: I know, but root should have access to read NTFS right?
[11:21] <eyequeue> zandaa, don't routinely do anything as root, including disk access, bad practice
[11:21] <bobbyd> hi
[11:21] <alpha> eyequeue: dito
[11:21] <hikenboot> so there is no way to remove openoffice and its language packs from the cd..I am trying to make space on the cd for my packages
[11:22] <redguy> does anyone know where do I get the public Verisign root certificate, so that gpgsm will know that stuff signed by a certificate signed by a verisign issued certificate is ok?
[11:22] <hikenboot> open office isnt needed for my application
[11:22] <bobbyd> could someone with an AMD64 chip post the output of "uname -a" ?
[11:22] <redguy> or does it work some other way perhaps?
[11:22] <magnet> hikenboot: use debian
[11:22] <magnet> ubuntu is made this way to keep it simple to a majority of users
[11:23] <magnet> you can't do what you want and keep the benefits of ubuntu
[11:23] <gnomefreak> hikenboot: remove openoffice than
[11:23] <mirak> I have a disque image in a file. I did it with dd. I want to acces a partition on this image, so I remember I must bind a block device to this file but I don't remember where to start
[11:23] <itrebal> so i just discovered Dapper was out
[11:23] <hikenboot> i wanted to maximize hardware support which comes with ubuntu..not to mention it seems fairly stable
[11:23] <magnet> (you could get the ubuntu-desktop sources, and re-build it without the ooo dependancies, but its a dirty hack)
[11:23] <Alex> mirak: mount -o loop /path/to/file /path/to/mount
[11:23] <quiet> itrebal, *just*!?
[11:23] <gnomefreak> itrebal: been out since june 1st
[11:23] <itrebal> yea, just now
[11:23] <quiet> wow.
[11:24] <itrebal> i don't really pay attention to it
[11:24] <mirak> Alex: I am almost sure it mount work
[11:24] <itrebal> anyway, so a dist-upgrade with the new sources will do it all for me, right?
[11:24] <fouad> Hello, i got a nvidia card but spci | grep -i nvidia doesnt print anything, should i commence with installing the binary driver?
[11:24] <effer> what is a loki installer?
[11:24] <nahoj>  I get"Internal error, failed to initialize HAL" when i boot up with edgy, is this bad? What should I do?
[11:24] <sethk> itrebal, I'm staying with breezy for a few more weeks
[11:24] <mirak> Alex: you can't do it like that
[11:24] <Alex> mirak: What?
[11:24] <eyequeue> itrebal, yes, but read this
[11:24] <mirak> Alex: it's not an iso
[11:24] <sethk> fouad, lspci, not spci, if that wasn't a typo
[11:24] <eyequeue> !upgrade > itrebal
[11:24] <TLE> I was looking at the game American Army, and got a litle confused, does the newest version run natively ?
[11:24] <mirak> Alex: I want it as a raw device anyway
[11:24] <Alex> mirak: Try it - if it doesn't work - fine.
[11:24] <quiet> TLE, always has.
[11:24] <effer> TLE, i got it to run
[11:24] <eyequeue> itrebal, (what ubotu sent you)
[11:24] <Alex> Be more specific.. :)
[11:24] <hikenboot> gnomefreak, open office appears to remove thru chain of dependancies x-window-system-core xbase-clients ubuntu-live ubuntu-desktop...which i assume are all necessary to the cd's basic functions
[11:24] <itrebal> thanks
[11:24] <fouad> sethk, sorry, the command i ran was actually lspci
[11:24] <mirak> Alex: that's not what I need
[11:25] <stefg> nahoj: /j #ubuntu+1
[11:25] <sethk> fouad, and, no, if lspci | grep -i nvidia    doesn't find it, installing the binary driver won't work
[11:25] <effer> what is a loki installer?
[11:25] <Alex> effer: You just said that.. :)
[11:25] <TLE> quiet: Do you know if there is a torrent for the download ?
[11:25] <gnomefreak> hikenboot: after you remove it install those that you want back
[11:25] <sethk> fouad, mine, for example, is:  0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 00f2 (rev a2)
[11:25] <Alex> effer: http://liflg.org/
[11:25] <effer> Alex, i know...sometimes i repeat myself
[11:25] <quiet> TLE, not a clue... check out torrentspy.com or mininova.org or something.
[11:26] <GillesM> any idea about my LIVECD problem with geforce ?
[11:26] <hikenboot> how do i remove the packages that I want removed so they dont take  up space on the cd then dpkg instead of apt-get remove --purge?
[11:26] <fouad> sethk, okay, i guess ill have to check if ive not messed up those PCs... ive lost touch with them since college
[11:26] <hikenboot> the problem is it looses the configs
[11:26] <sethk> fouad, is there anything with VGA listed?
[11:26] <effer> Alex, thanks
[11:26] <sethk> fouad, if there is a display adapter on the AGP or PCI bus, it will show up.
[11:27] <mma> Loki installers for linux games: http://liflg.org/
[11:27] <TLE> quiet: ok thanks
[11:27] <gnomefreak> hikenboot: you dont remove them from the cd
[11:27] <magnet> GillesM: what problem?
[11:27] <gnomefreak> hikenboot: create your own live cd
[11:27] <itrebal> what does apt-get use to download the package files?
[11:27] <nahoj> stefg, does not seem like anyone knows in ubuntu+1
[11:27] <gnomefreak> there is a how to on the wiki iirc
[11:27] <fouad> sethk, turns out this is the ATI box... the other must be nvidia... damn im messed up
[11:27] <sethk> fouad, ok :)  that makes more sense
[11:27] <magnet> itrebal: if I recall correctly, it uses libcurl
[11:27] <gnomefreak> itrebal: the repos
[11:27] <sethk> fouad, no vga at all would be difficult to deal with  :)
[11:28] <hikenboot> that seems like a lot more work than starting with the ubuntu base and removing and adding packages
[11:28] <itrebal> alright
[11:28] <sethk> gnomefreak, I think he means what download protocol, as in sftp, wget, etc.
[11:28] <alxandra_> eyequeue, i am sorry but i have to ask one more thing, how can i make synaptic to see those pre-fetched packages. i dont want to redownload all of them :(
[11:28] <gnomefreak> ah
[11:28] <fouad> sethk, thanks
[11:29] <eyequeue> alxandra_, you have them on cd, right?
[11:29] <kingdong> does anyone know why ubuntu take so long to apply network settings... i click ok but the cursor just spins for more than 2 minutes
[11:29] <alxandra_> eyequeue yes
[11:29] <hikenboot> i guess i will try and removing all the packages ...reinstall the ones i dont want removed and then using dpkg to get rid of the specific packages I dont want so they dont take up space
[11:29] <eyequeue> alxandra_, i will call your cd mount point /cdrom in this example, but use what yours really is, okay?
[11:29] <alxandra_> i have put all of them to /var/cache/apt/archives
[11:29] <Blinker> hmm, partman isn't installed with ubuntu, is it
[11:29] <stefg> hikenboot: read this http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/ ?
[11:30] <qsrv> hi
[11:30] <eyequeue> alxandra_, sudo cp /cdrom/*.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/
[11:30] <alxandra_> o.k i did it, eyequeue
[11:30] <qsrv> where are the wpa_supplicant settings, generated by nm-applet kept?
[11:30] <eyequeue> alxandra_, okay, then it should see them automatically from now on
[11:30] <qsrv> is it possible to have custom ones for one profile?
[11:30] <nozorro> kingdong: imho this is because of the engine which drives it in the background (which is a bit slow) -- normal but somewhat annoying
[11:30] <veleno> hello everyone. i mounted an external usb hard-disk. i copied there some files (sudo cp file /media/usbdisk), but i can't umount it ...what can I do ?
[11:31] <alxandra_> where can i find them, in the sections part? or anywhere else
[11:31] <kingdong> oh it's normal nozorro? i thought it was a bug with my install
[11:31] <eyequeue> alxandra_, try sudo apt-get install (some package name from those new debs) to see
[11:31] <kingdong> thanks for the tip ;)
[11:31] <magnet> veleno: change de working directory
[11:31] <alxandra_> eyequeue, it downloads from internet
[11:31] <magnet> it must be busy because you're still "in it"
[11:31] <magnet> the*
[11:31] <eyequeue> alxandra_, whatever tool you used to use (such as synaptic) will not see anything different until you try to INSTALL them
[11:31] <nozorro> kingdong: this config app is buggy at least at the cosmetic level, but in general is has worked for me
[11:32] <hikenboot> stefg, i will give that a second look..perhaps if nothing else it will give me a cd built closer to what I want and then i can customize that cd
[11:32] <kingdong> it applies the settings for me too if i wait but I am used to network settings being applied in less than 5 seconds on Windows Xp and Mac OS X
[11:32] <eyequeue> alxandra_, can you give me the filename of one of those debs?  an ls -l of /var/cache/apt/archives/whateverfilenamehere.deb?
[11:32] <alxandra_> eyequeue, hmm i got it, i must have chosen a different file or version
[11:33] <eyequeue> alxandra_, okay, so it's working now?
[11:33] <nozorro> kingdong: it's done by some scripting engine which i don't remember right know -- other config apps as well
[11:33] <Linuturk> hondje, hey, lets see if we can figure out the bottleneck in my system
[11:33] <alxandra_> let me try
[11:33] <Linuturk> hondje, I'm still seeing low performance
[11:33] <Linuturk> hondje, and I'm currently on my problem system
[11:33] <InnerFIRE> why are enlightenment and xfce so weird to setup
[11:34] <Shadowpillar> is it me or is samba sharing in ubuntu horribly broken?
[11:34] <alxandra_> eyequeue, for ecample i try to install vlc. but it gives vlc depentds bla bla but its not going to be installed
[11:34] <alxandra_> error
[11:34] <eyequeue> alxandra_, use apt-get, it should pull in dependencies too
[11:34] <Necrocide> http://tinyurl.com/k3jtk
[11:34] <Doodluv> alexandra, why not use apt, or synaptic?
[11:35] <alxandra_> eyequeue, doest synaptic get them for me
[11:35] <alxandra_> ?
[11:35] <faithman> quick question.. how do u set it so that folders can be written in and arent all write protected?
[11:35] <eyequeue> alxandra_, just to clarify, these machines are running the same release, right?  as in both being dapper or both being breezy
[11:35] <Doodluv> failthman: chown, or chmod
[11:35] <faithman> thx doodluv
[11:36] <alxandra_> yes same
[11:36] <eyequeue> alxandra_, it should, but i know apt-get will, and synaptic is just a guess
[11:36] <Doodluv> faithman: np
[11:36] <magnet> synaptic does, it's just another frontend to apt (just like apt-get is a command-line frontend to apt, aptitude a ncurses frontend, etc)
[11:37] <TLE> quiet: it's just wierd cuz on their download there isn't listed any servers for Linux version er version 2.6
[11:38] <kirby904> anyone here can help me with a lil problem?
[11:38] <nozorro> kirby904: lil?
[11:38] <kirby904> umm
[11:39] <redguy> kirby904: you'll never know until you ask
[11:39] <Doodluv> isnt there a bot..command for that
[11:39] <Doodluv> !anyone
[11:39] <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?
[11:39] <tarzeau> goatse.ca
[11:39] <Doodluv> =] 
[11:39] <Entity> Is there someone running compiz+AIGLX on a 915G card (Edgy) with all updates ???
[11:39] <kirby904> when i try to install from the live cd, it jsut stops
[11:39] <stefg> !xgl
[11:39] <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
[11:39] <Doodluv> Entity: have you tried #ubuntu-xgl?
[11:39] <kirby904> i set a root (/) and a swap
[11:40] <eyequeue> kirby904, 6.06 or 6.06.1?
[11:40] <kirby904> umm i just got in mail today lemy check
[11:40] <kirby904> 6.06
[11:40] <eyequeue> kirby904, 6.06 has a known bug in the installer, only on the livecd
[11:40] <Entity> Doodluv, well it's AIGLX not XGL ... same channel anyway?
[11:40] <Doodluv> oh yeah
[11:40] <kirby904> if i set a /media/hda1 for my partition 1 will it erase my windows? c drive
[11:40] <veleno> magnet, i closed all konsole
[11:40] <Doodluv> hmmm dunno
[11:41] <eyequeue> kirby904, 6.06.1 fixes that (or use 6.06 alternate cd)
[11:41] <magnet> veleno: ?
[11:41] <magnet> what was you problem already?
[11:41] <kirby904> eye: will it?
[11:41] <nozorro> kirby904: probably, coz win is almost always on the first partition
[11:41] <veleno> magnet, i can't umount an usb disk
[11:41] <eyequeue> kirby904, no idea about windows, but if you choose to overwrite anything, it's gone
[11:41] <magnet> oh
[11:41] <kirby904> well
[11:41] <magnet> so the other possibility is HAL messing with you
[11:41] <kirby904> it says if i take it off the list
[11:42] <Doodluv> Entity: i think they could help in there...
[11:42] <kirby904> it will destroy the partition
[11:42] <kirby904> so i want to know
[11:42] <kirby904> like the last step before u press install
[11:42] <Entity> yeah I'll try, thanks Doodluv
[11:42] <magnet> what's the error when you try to umount?
[11:42] <veleno> magnet, who is HAL ?
[11:42] <kirby904> it tells u to pick a partition for root and swap
[11:42] <Blinker> kirby904: if you edit or delete any partition, you run the risk of damaging the data contained.
[11:42] <Doodluv> Entity: np
[11:42] <kirby904> well wait
[11:42] <magnet> what is :) Hardware Abstraction Layer
[11:42] <sam-sarnie> Hello
[11:42] <nozorro> kirby904: make a new partition for root, and one for swap, in the free space (if any)
[11:42] <Blinker> however you can usually resize it without problems
[11:42] <magnet> that's what automagically mounts USB keys or such for you
[11:42] <Doodluv> howdy
[11:43] <kirby904> i pick partition to for root (/) and partition 3 for swap (swap)
[11:43] <kirby904> do i have to pick partition 1?
[11:43] <nozorro> kirby904: you don't have to, but windows is probably on hda1
[11:43] <eyequeue> kirby904, pick whatever you like that is large enough
[11:43] <Blinker> kirby904: no, you don't have to pick any certain partition number, but the partitions selected do need to be empty
[11:43] <Doodluv> valeno: are you in that dir like you$:/media/usb if so you need to be out
[11:43] <sam-sarnie> i'm a newcommer to ubuntu and am having some probelms with my wireless card in my laptop - it won't find it
[11:43] <veleno> magnet, what do you suggest me to do ?
[11:44] <kirby904> thats not my question
[11:44] <magnet> so sometimes when you manually umount something, HAL mounts them again (and it's a huge pain in the ass, at least if it showed a message with "How are you doin' Dave?" I could excuse it ;))
[11:44] <kirby904> my question is that if i dont pick hda1
[11:44] <nozorro> kirby904: ubuntu will boot off any partition, not only the first one
[11:44] <kirby904> will it erase it?
[11:44] <Blinker> kirby904: no
[11:44] <kirby904> i know, but if i dont pick it will it erase it?
[11:44] <magnet> try umounting the USB storage manually and report the error
[11:44] <kirby904> ok
[11:44] <kirby904> good
[11:44] <hsunda3> Hello! I was just wondering, if I setup squid on my Ubuntu box which is currently my gateway/router, will my users on the network have to make any changes on their machines?
[11:44] <Blinker> kirby904: if it's not selected for use, then it remains unchanged
[11:44] <kirby904> well for the 6.06.1, do i have to order another cd?
[11:44] <magnet> hsunda3: yes
[11:44] <kirby904> or is there a patch
[11:44] <Blinker> unless you change something about it, such as resizing, etc
[11:44] <magnet> set squid as a proxy and define the port (3128)
[11:45] <kirby904> or something
[11:45] <eyequeue> hsunda3, the port number of the proxy
[11:45] <Doodluv> hsunda3: you direct the traffic through it
[11:45] <Doodluv> hsunda3: *if
[11:45] <kirby904> ?
[11:45] <Blinker> kirby904: if you have the 6.06 live cd youre good to go
[11:45] <nozorro> kirby904: don't use 6.06.1 is you are newbie
[11:45] <kirby904> well i have the live cd but i cant install
[11:45] <nozorro> *if*
[11:45] <kirby904> because the bug
[11:45] <kirby904> ...
[11:45] <Blinker> ah
[11:45] <eyequeue> nozorro, isn't that backwards?
[11:45] <quiet> what bug in 6.06.1?
[11:45] <eyequeue> Blinker, no, that one had the bug
[11:46] <nozorro> eyequeue: not sure i follow ...
[11:46] <hsunda3> eyequeue, Doodluv and magnet right now, my Ubuntu box hands out the IP to my room mates' machines, and everything is seemingly simple. Can't I just ask squid to listen to the default ports so my room mates don't have to make any changes?
[11:46] <eyequeue> 6.06 livecd had a broekn installer, that was fixed in 6.06.1 livecd
[11:46] <Blinker> is this bug a recent development, within the last 2 months?
[11:46] <magnet> hsunda3: no, that's not how a proxy works :)
[11:46] <ompaul> Flannel, you about?
[11:46] <magnet> you may want just a NAT
[11:46] <quiet> the 6.06 installer works just fine for me... both the alternative disc and the livecd installer.
[11:46] <kirby904> the bug where i cant install
[11:46] <hsunda3> magnet I do have a NAT running yes.
[11:46] <magnet> why do you want to use squid?
[11:46] <eyequeue> Blinker, since 6.06 was released
[11:47] <kirby904> do i have to order another cd?
[11:47] <nozorro> eyequeue: umm sorry, i thought 6.06.1 was edgy ...
[11:47] <kirby904> because i dont really want to...
[11:47] <eyequeue> quiet, live had breakage, on some hw
[11:47] <kirby904> like is there a patch or soemthing
[11:47] <quiet> ok
[11:47] <hsunda3> magnet: just curious, that's all. No particular reason to run squid really. I have NAT setup right now, and things are fine.
[11:47] <Blinker> eyequeue: ahh, k, because I never encountered any issues and i basically had to completely rearrange partitions, heh
[11:47] <nozorro> eyequeue: but of *course* it isn't
[11:47] <AhmedT> hello. how do I open mysql's port on ubuntu suing the commandline?
[11:47] <eyequeue> nozorro, no, that's the bug fixed dapper with about 300 fixes on it
[11:47] <Blinker> but if its a more recent thing then yeah, what these guys say
[11:47] <hsunda3> magnet: I have used iptables to setup the NAT and internet connection sharing. dhcpd hands out the IPs.
[11:48] <magnet> ok, squid and proxies in general are useful on a big network with some common activities (think of it as a shared browser cache)
[11:48] <eyequeue> nozorro, you're thinking "6.10" :)
[11:48] <nozorro> eyequeue: yeah
[11:48] <magnet> or when don't want to NAT for security reasons
[11:48] <ladydoor> hello...i'm trying to compile Ubuntu's source version of a package and get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22677. is anybody familiar with this/do you know how to fix it?
[11:48] <kirby904> umm
[11:48] <hsunda3> magnet: ok thanks. Guess I won't be needing it after all then. Never mind. Thanks for your help anyway.
[11:48] <magnet> if you NAT already, keep NATing :)
[11:48] <quiet> did they ever fix that bug with ATI cards and the default Human theme having 'snow' on the buttons?
[11:48] <kirby904> Blink: is there a patch, or do i have to order another cd
[11:48] <hsunda3> magnet Done :)
[11:48] <longwave> AhmedT: you mean so you can connect to mysql on interfaces other than localhost?
[11:48] <kingdong> does anyone know how to fix: W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xinetd/xinetd_2.3.14-0ubuntu1_i386.deb Connection failed [IP: 195.248.90.54 80] 
[11:48] <ladydoor> i don't believe that familiarity with the particular package is probably necessary to debug this.
[11:49] <magnet> kingdong: wait :)
[11:49] <lupine_85> Try a different miror?
[11:49] <magnet> (and do it again later)
[11:49] <lupine_85> e.g. http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xinetd/xinetd_2.3.14-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
[11:49] <kingdong> is there a way to change the mirror for all of them in synaptic?
[11:49] <kirby904> IS there ANY way I can INSTALL my linux without ordering another cd, or redownloading the whole distro
[11:49] <lupine_85> yes - edit your sources.list
[11:49] <kingdong> awesome thanks lupine_85
[11:49] <kingdong> thanks magnet
[11:49] <lupine_85> kirby904: use the CDROM as a source for debootstrap?
[11:49] <magnet> np :)
[11:49] <alex222> how do i install XMMS on ubuntu?
[11:50] <AhmedT> longwave: mysqld is running and its listening on 3306 but I cant get to it from anything but localhost (its not access denied on mysql because of user@host) it just wont connect. I did a port scan from outside and 3306 doesn't seem open to the outside
[11:50] <kirby904> lupine would you guide me in doing that
[11:50] <alex222> checking for prefix by checking for xmms... no
[11:50] <alex222> ^^
[11:50] <magnet> AhmedT: edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[11:51] <ladydoor> kirby904: TRY googling DEBOOTSTRAP ubuntu
[11:51] <hsunda3> magnet one question though. Can't I setup iptables rules to route the packages through squid? That way iptables takes care of the routing, and my users on the network access at the default ports only?
[11:51] <kirby904> ok thank you
[11:51] <kirby904> =] 
[11:51] <lupine_85> man debootstrap will also do the trick
[11:51] <kirby904> im a uber troubleshooter =] 
[11:51] <kirby904> ok ty
[11:51] <longwave> AhmedT: edit /etc/mysqk/my.cnf and add the external IP address to the bind-address line
[11:51] <longwave> AhmedT: sorry, /etc/mysql/my.cnf :)
[11:51] <magnet> hsunda3: that's brainfucking :)
[11:51] <veleno> ok, now i f***ed up the hard-disk...
[11:51] <lupine_85> once you've got a basic system, just ap-get install ubuntu-desktop (or whatever it is), and you're off
[11:51] <AhmedT> magnet: got it. will try it out.
[11:51] <fmasi> can some one please help me whith mdadm i geting crasy whith it
[11:51] <lupine_85> it's basically all the installer does anyway
[11:51] <hsunda3> magnet: oh ok :( (what's that supposed to mean anyway? )
[11:52] <fmasi> i cant figure out how to delete my /dev/md0
[11:52] <ISOLATEDViRuS> is there a way for me to open .rar?
[11:52] <lupine_85> !unrar
[11:52] <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
[11:52] <magnet> AhmedT: be careful, you don't really want to do this if you don't firewall the 3306 port so only authorized IPs get through
[11:52] <ladydoor> !unrar
[11:52] <ladydoor> oh
[11:52] <eyequeue> !eae > ISOLATEDViRuS
[11:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about eae - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:52] <magnet> hsunda3: that's it's a hassle for nothing in the end
[11:52] <eyequeue> sheesh
[11:52] <nozorro> kirby904: yes, install rar and use Archive Manager as frontend
[11:52] <magnet> no perf gain, just using more cpu/ram
[11:52] <magnet> how many roommates do you have?
[11:52] <AhmedT> magnet: this is all internal nothing is exposed to the outside. one another note: how do I restart mysqld :-)
[11:53] <hsunda3> magnet: yeah ... never mind. There are only 5 people in my house. But that's not the point. Just that I wanted to learn more about squid in general and how it works. That's it.
[11:53] <magnet> if you are sharing your connection to less than 10 people, you don't want to run squid :)

[11:53] <lupine_85> unrar-free won't work with many archives :(
[11:53] <veleno> any idea: http://rafb.net/paste/results/vNJ5hr80.html
[11:53] <mma> ISOLATEDViRuS just search Synaptic for rar with the universe repo added.

[11:53] <hsunda3> magnet you are right. I don't intend to run squid in the first place. just wanted to learn about that, considering how much I read over summer regarding the dhcp server, dns server, iptables, NAT .... thought Squid would be a nice way to finish my summer :)
[11:53] <magnet> ok so run squid ;) but even though you *could* forge redirect packets going through your NAT gateway:80 to gateway:3128 ..
[11:54] <magnet> squid will have to reply them to the gateway again
[11:54] <AhmedT> magnet: thanks. all works
[11:54] <magnet> and do the reverse masquerading on the way back
[11:54] <AhmedT> longwave: thanks :-)
[11:54] <magnet> that's complicated and useless :)
[11:54] <hsunda3> magnet now I get why you said brainfuck earlier :)
[11:54] <magnet> yep :)

[11:55] <MegabeepoO> Hey guys, I'm currently on the live cd.  I was wondering, what are the advantages of using linux vs my current windows installation?  I'm knew to all this
[11:55] <hsunda3> eyequeue: I know. I was just quoting magnet earlier, just for fun. Sorry anyway.
[11:55] <magnet> hsunda3: the clients machine know about an outgoing HTTP(tcp80, bidirectionnal) connection
[11:55] <ladydoor> does anybody have any idea about this make error while working on building a source package from the Ubuntu repositories? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22677
[11:55] <magnet> but they don't know about connecting to squid (3128)
[11:55] <mma> MegabeepoO use what works for you. Its a personal choice.
[11:56] <factotum> MegabeepoO: the first thing i noticed was file managment is really good, esecially with compressed files and archieves.
[11:56] <Griffjon> Hey, quick question - I need to get the /lib/modules/2.6.10-6-386/build directory on my linux laptop in order to make my vpnclient software, can I download a tar.gz of it and copy it over?
[11:56] <magnet> you could also bind squid to the LAN IP of your gateway and use port 80
[11:56] <hsunda3> magnet: Yes, I get your picture. Thanks a lot :) ... I will give it a try over the nxt weekend ..
[11:56] <redguy> magnet: isn't this a "transparent proxy"
[11:56] <magnet> but then any possible webserver you'd have on the gateway wouldn't be accessible from the LAN ;)
[11:56] <factotum> Little more pep too, just from what ive done on my system so far anyways.
[11:56] <factotum> mileage varies i guess
[11:56] <magnet> redguy: you mean NAT?
[11:57] <hsunda3> magnet redguy, what's this transparent proxy thing?
[11:57] <ladydoor> MegabeepoO: it depends what you're looking for in an os
[11:57] <kirby904> OK can anyone explain debootstrap in really vauge steps please
[11:57] <kirby904> or help me find a link to a tut
[11:57] <kirby904> cause im in a hurry
[11:57] <gubuntu> i just tried to set up xgl on another machine with a firegl v3100 and i copied my xorg.conf file from my other machine but "ati" was still showing up on glxinfo, so i removed xserver-org-ati and now x wont start right.. any idea how i get it back?
[11:57] <MegabeepoO> Ladydoor: Simplicity and power and able to run a fair amound of games
[11:57] <longwave> "transparent proxy" is when a NAT box silently redirects port 80 requests to the internet to a squid instance running on 3128 or something similar
[11:57] <factotum> that and i havent had to reboot twice since ive installed it about 3 weeks ago
[11:57] <longwave> the clients need no proxy configuration but are forced through the proxy anyway
[11:57] <factotum> that was just for upgrades
[11:57] <spuddogg> Anyone know any Wine alternatives that are 64-bit?
[11:57] <factotum> oaky im shutting up now
[11:58] <apokryphos> spuddogg: you can build wine for 64bit now I believe
[11:58] <redguy> hsunda3: you could run squid on your gateway and make iptables to redirect connections to any:80 to gateway:3128
[11:58] <longwave> my ISP uses transparent proxying which seems to interact badly with apt sometimes :(
[11:58] <spuddogg> apokryphos, any idea how this is done?
[11:58] <apokryphos> compiling
[11:58] <hsunda3> redguy yes, that was magnet's suggestion earlier as well. I guess it all comes down to being too much of a hassle?
[11:59] <magnet> I didn't know they called it transparent proxy now :)
[11:59] <ladydoor> MegabeepoO: simplicity--check. power--definitely check, especially if you learn to use the terminal. games? depends what you're looking for. if you want the big fancy windows games, use cedega i guess. but otherwise there're a lot of games for linux that maybe aren't as fancy but definitely exist
[11:59] <gubuntu> whats the apt-get syntax to 'search' for a package name
[11:59] <redguy> magnet: well, it's transparent to the client and it's a proxy isn't it? ;-)
[11:59] <magnet> well it's a hassle to do it by yourself, but if you have a decent tutorial why not.. still, you won't get any perf improvement
[11:59] <longwave> gubuntu: "apt-cache search <searchstring>"
[11:59] <hsunda3> magnet lol. Ok thanks a bunch anyway magnet. Did learn something today :)
[11:59] <spuddogg> apokryphos, when i apt-get install wine, i get the error package wine has no installation candidate
[11:59] <eyequeue> gubuntu, wrong command, apt-cache search foo
[11:59] <gubuntu> TY
[11:59] <kirby904> can anyone help me with debootstrap? im not finding anything helpful in google
[11:59] <ladydoor> kirby904: man debootstrap
[12:00] <eyequeue> gubuntu, apt-cache show foo is useful after :)
[12:00] <hsunda3> magnet as I said, performance improvement is not what I am looking it. simply the next day I read an article on 'squid' or 'proxy' I won't look blank ..
[12:00] <redguy> hsunda3: least hassle, and you save some bandwith I suppose
[12:00] <nozorro> kirby904: if you're new to linux/ubuntu, do yourself a favour and get a new CD somehow.
[12:00] <ladydoor> kirby904: nm
[12:00] <magnet> hsunda3: ok :)
[12:00] <magnet> redguy: yep :) but not so long ago people talked about IP masquerading and not NATing
[12:00] <kirby904> ?
[12:00] <magnet> times change :)
[12:00] <hsunda3> redguy Yes.Thanks again redguy and magnet ... I am off to keep myself busy for a while :)
[12:00] <Chaosphilipp> hi, can make hang up, means "turning rounds"?
[12:00] <magnet> ok bye :)
[12:01] <kirby904> yo nozorro: can u get me a link to a helpful website
