[12:01] <ompaul> ladydoor,  if you want to build a package you can use it for it, but building a package is mostly a source thing if it is binary based no idea but I am sure the clue is in there
[12:01] <ladydoor> ompaul: sweet
[12:01] <day> hi everybody, would someone know if it is possible to have infraread working on an ubuntu macbook with the 2.6.15 kernel ? i've seen that it's working on gentoo with a 2.6.18 patched kernel
[12:01] <THX-1138> ompaul - What is the app that creates a deb from an installed package?
[12:02] <ompaul> ladydoor, I have finite knowledge but don't tell flannel :)
[12:02] <ladydoor> ompaul: lol
[12:02] <THX-1138> ompaul is *always* here and exceedingly modest.
[12:03] <ompaul> THX-1138, I only know how to do that version - if it is already installed you need to step back to the install section
[12:03] <ompaul> and rebuild from sources
[12:03] <THX-1138> Okay.
[12:03] <ompaul> THX-1138, however gnomefreak did some research on that I can't remember the outcome
[12:04] <THX-1138> Great, Thanks i'll ask him.

[12:05] <vcolombo_> Does anyone have a recommendation on an inexpensive, fully supported PCMCIA wireless card that I can get without ordering it from someplace (i.e. walk into CompUSA)?
[12:05] <exs>  Is there a good RSS program, where I am able to look for keywords... so it will notify me when for example it finds "Gaim" ?
[12:06] <THX-1138> Is it possible to indulge thrillseeking (masochistic?) tendencies and download and Edgy Eft iso?

[12:07] <BigMac> xserver wont work for me and i have never installed ubuntu

[12:07] <vcolombo_> cpk2: "works"?
[12:08] <frenris> Heh I just installed ubuntu yesterday
[12:08] <BigMac> lucky
[12:08] <cpk2> vcolombo_: yes, need to modprobe ndiswrapper and even then it gives me attitude sometimes
[12:08] <frenris> its funny cause the first time I tried
[12:08] <BigMac> i have been trying for 3 days
[12:08] <BigMac> no luck
[12:08] <frenris> I had to kill windows
[12:08] <frenris> and reformat
[12:08] <cpk2> vcolombo_: there is a list on the wiki of what works and what doesnt
[12:09] <vcolombo_> cpk2: ah, yeah, I'm dealing with a card that "works" right now. I want one that WORKS. ;)
[12:09] <BigMac> you like it frenris?
[12:09] <JackONeil> whats the second most popular graphics package for linux?
[12:09] <frenris> and now on XP my internet, speakers and pinter does work while they work out of the box on ubuntu

[12:10] <BigMac> did you do live or alt?
[12:10] <BigMac> is it pretty?
[12:10] <Fantamoer> I guess SuSE is pretty popular too.
[12:10] <THX-1138> Ah, The "Daily Build" - (sly grin) - looks like fun. :)
[12:11] <THX-1138> Suse uses rpm packaging? (shudder)
[12:11] <jorgg> if i have a folder that only root can access, and I dont want to change permissions on it. Can i use sudo to enter it? when I try sudo cd dir, i get the command: sudo: cd: command not found.
[12:11] <tothepigeons> sudo nautilus
[12:11] <Tonren> What is Enterprise Volume Management?
[12:11] <Fantamoer> Yes, SuSE = rpm
[12:11] <tothepigeons> will give you a root file manager
[12:11] <jorgg> tothepigeons: to me?
[12:11] <ladydoor> jorgg: cd into it
[12:11] <ladydoor> jorgg: without sudo
[12:12] <tuxub> Tonren, i think it's related to LVM disks
[12:12] <tothepigeons> yes jorgg
[12:12] <ladydoor> jorgg: and then work on it from within
[12:12] <Tonren> tuxub: dunno what those are either.
[12:12] <jorgg> ladydoor: only root has +x and can enter it

[12:14] <onthost> tothepigeons: yes and i havent found a solution yet

[12:18] <midas> hi
[12:18] <Tonren> Does anyone know exactly what LVM and EVMS are, what they do, and how I know if I'm using them, or need them?
[12:19] <Captain_Redbeard> Does anybody here have any experience with xgl?
[12:19] <midas> i've got probs with the nvidia drivers.When i install it in recovery mode and start GDM everything is fine,but when i restart ubuntu it doesn't work.. whats the prob ?
[12:20] <BigMac> anyone else have trouble with xserver and an ATI graphics card?
[12:20] <vcolombo_> Tonren: afaik lvm is logical volume manager and I don't think Ubuntu (or any flavor thereof) uses it by default.
[12:20] <tothepigeons> LVM is a variation/addition to partitions am I correct?
[12:20] <Tonren> vcolombo_: Well, EVMS is causing quite a delay on my bootup.  If I only have 4 major partitions on my HD - i.e., no logical partitions - can I remove them from bootup?
[12:21] <rummik> how long should it take to dd a 80GB drive?
[12:21] <vcolombo_> Toren: and according to Google EVMS is Eastern Virginia Medical School ;)
[12:21] <Tonren> vcolombo_: Oh dear... there's a school on my computer!

[12:21] <grimboy> Hey, I have 802.11g belkin usb wifi thingmabob. At https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported near the very bottom it says it should show up in network administration. I'm running xubuntu and it doesn't show up there at all. Doing a diff before and after pluging in the device shows there isn't a difference, but it DOES show up on lspci.
[12:21] <vcolombo_> Toren: do you have raid at all?
[12:21] <Tonren> vcolombo_: Nope.
[12:22] <vcolombo_> Toren: Did you install them manually? I don't think they're installed by default, so if they're installed on your system and you didn't install them manually they may have gotten installed for a reason
[12:23] <Tonren> vcolombo_: I certainly didn't...
[12:23] <rixxon> will it be easy to get XGL working in edgy?
[12:23] <vcolombo_> Tonren: Hmmm. Then I'd be a bit leary about removing them just yet
[12:24] <Tonren> vcolombo_: Hmm.
[12:24] <vcolombo_> Tonren: you said you have four partitions?
[12:24] <Tonren> vcolombo_: Yep, all of 'em primary

[12:25] <vcolombo_> tonren: does your system maybe have raid capability that you're just not using?
[12:25] <Tonren> vcolombo_: I doubt it.  Since when do mid-range laptops have RAID?
[12:26] <vcolombo_> tonren: heh, just making sure
[12:26] <cstrippie> Since some of us started putting a second hard drive in the media bay

[12:28] <_keturn> I am confused about the dmix story.  In several places, I have read "request: enable dmix by default", and the answer "ok, done in Breezy."  However, there is no /etc/asound.conf file, and I do occasionally encounter craptastic sound conflicts.  Is there some hidden asound.conf somewhere that is doing dmix when I'm not looking?

[12:32] <onthost> jonah1980: are the files owned by root? meaning only root can delete them?
[12:32] <jonah1980> onthost, no they're owned by the user but i can't get rid of them
[12:33] <spoop> ubuntu owns your fais

[12:33] <vcolombo> tonren: lvm and evms ARE actually part of ubuntu_base and ubuntu_desktop
[12:33] <jonah1980> onthost, i could of formatted the card fresh but it also won't let me copy files i need on the card to backup first

[12:33] <Crazed> what is the reason for the kernel update ?
[12:34] <Tonren> vcolombo: how odd.  so I suppose I just need to figure out if I"m actually USING them

[12:35] <Tonren> vcolombo: Worst case scenario, I can just use.. uh... what was that command-line app that lets you edit boot options?
[12:36] <BigMac> which is better 86i or 64bit?
[12:36] <vcolombo> tonren: argh, I always forget since I don't use it often. At work we use redhat based systems so I'm used to chkconfig
[12:37] <Tonren> vcolombo: "bum" is the GUI package.. i'ts like rc-update.conf or something

[12:37] <Tonren> does anyone remember the name of the command-line app for changing bootup runlevels?
[12:37] <Tonren> it's like rc-conf.d or something

[12:39] <osfameron> what's the quicksilver-like app for KDE called again?

[12:40] <meh3434> like in /usr/share/themes for example
[12:40] <osfameron> ah, katapult
[12:40] <cwkx> I see, so I should install the theme as root?

[12:43] <piclez> thanks yoshiznit123
[12:43] <djm62> jonah1980: oh, how odd.  Is there any kind of write protection on the card itself?
[12:44] <Tonren> vcolombo: it's sysv-rc-conf

[12:45] <piclez> yoshiznit123: primary or secondary group: adm?
[12:46] <yoshiznit123> piclez, if you want fine-grained control, you can edit the /etc/sudoers file
[12:46] <yoshiznit123> piclez, by default, members of admin group can get root priviliges (explained in /etc/sudoers)

[12:46] <jonah1980> djm62: yeah that's about the jist of it - i tried copying the entire contents of the card to desktop so i could format the card but it just comes up with preparing to copy dialog for ages and ages and then that dissapears and nothing copies over, so i can't format it cos there is stuff on i need

[12:47] <djm62> jonah1980: wow, that sounds worrying.  If you have the window open on that and you select File->Empty Trash ?
[12:48] <piclez> yoshiznit123: I got it, but the problem is now I don't have more sudo privileges, because I used usermod -Gsubversion myuser and I think It changed all my groups
[12:48] <piclez> so I can't edit anything more even shutdown won't work

[12:49] <compilerwriter> Anyone have any ideas.
[12:49] <djm62> jonah1980: sounds quite a lot like there's something wrong with the card.  Have you tried it in a different computer to test that?
[12:49] <lupine_85> you can use the client of your choice, then - e.g. Ekiga iin Ubuntu, <anything random> in Windows
[12:49] <lupine_85> lots of free clients
[12:49] <meh3434> actually I tink there's a win32 ekiga client out now
[12:49] <yoshiznit123> piclez, that sucks... did you activate your root account, or can you login as another with root privs?...
[12:49] <philc> can I use unix sort to sort the first two fields by alphanumeric, and the third field numerically (if the first two fields are the same)?
[12:50] <jonah1980> djm62, no i can't get to a different machine before i go away - i wanted to put some albums on the card and clear some stuff off as i go on holiday in a couple of days
[12:50] <compilerwriter> I am having issues with skype.
[12:50] <meh3434> http://snapshots.voxgratia.org/win32.php does this actually work?
[12:50] <piclez> I keep getting piclez is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[12:50] <jonah1980> djm62, there isn't some kind of memory card utility program you can get for ubuntu/linux is there that can repair or delete stuff etc?
[12:50] <djm62> jonah1980: has the card ever worked?
[12:50] <yoshiznit123> meh3434, i tried it once but couldn't get the webcam working
[12:50] <piclez> yoshiznit123: I dit not activate root account :(
[12:51] <piclez> I have admin user I created to use webmin with roor privileges
[12:51] <lupine_85> piclez: boot into recovery mode and fix from there
[12:51] <meh3434> yoshiznit123: I didn't even know it had webcam support ;)
[12:51] <yoshiznit123> piclez, you can always boot into the live cd...
[12:51] <piclez> so if I boot from live CD can I change this ?
[12:51] <yoshiznit123> meh3434, maybe that's why it didn't work :-)
[12:51] <vcolombo> Anyone have an idea of why my laptop suddenly stopped loading ndiswrapper when I plug in my pcmcia wireless card? It was working, not it's not. But if I remove ndiswrapper and un-blacklist rl818x that loads just fine when I plug the card in.
[12:51] <jonah1980> djm62, yeah last month i used it fine
[12:51] <piclez> lupine_85: thanks! how to boot into rec. mode?
[12:51] <meh3434> yoshiznit123: you tried it on windows?
[12:52] <yoshiznit123> meh3434, yea
[12:52] <djm62> jonah1980: and you haven't changed the computer side significantly since then?
[12:52] <lupine_85> hit the reset button (or ctrl+alt+del). Recovery mode shows up in the GRUB menu
[12:52] <compilerwriter> Lupine_85 such as.
[12:52] <meh3434> yoshiznit123: but other than the webcam issue it was fine?
[12:52] <yoshiznit123> meh3434, i didn't really use it that much, was just to see if it worked
[12:52] <jonah1980> djm62, no - was wondering if the files just got corrupted or something
[12:52] <ztripez> is there a program that returns a pages html?

[12:53] <djm62> jonah1980: can you open a terminal?
[12:53] <lupine_85> Crazed: there's a kernel update in Dapper?
[12:53] <ztripez> yoshiznit123, no.. then i "download" the code.. i what to do like htmldown www.google.com | grep input

[12:54] <lupine_85> !linux-image
[12:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linux-image - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:54] <lupine_85> !linux-image-2.6.15-27-386
[12:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linux-image-2.6.15-27-386 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:54] <jonah1980> djm62, sure ok
[12:54] <Crazed> yep there is lupine_85
[12:54] <lupine_85> what's the version number, if you don't mind me asking
[12:54] <lupine_85> my botfu seems to be down right now, and I'm in edgy
[12:54] <xyazabix> an someone help me with my dual boot of server and desktop problem???
[12:55] <Crazed> >> !linux-386 this printed out the version
[12:55] <yoshiznit123> ztripez, wget -qO - www.google.com?
[12:55] <Crazed> not the linux kernel update
[12:55] <caseyomah_> Is there a plugin for WMV encryption?
[12:55] <Crazed> just some fix I gues ..
[12:55] <djm62> jonah1980: type 'mount' at the cmd line and try to find the line corresponding to your card (I don't know what it will be, but there should be something)
[12:55] <Crazed> thats why I am asking ;)
[12:55] <Crazed> 6.06 kernWhel security update issue is fixed
[12:55] <davey_> my system is unstable when using the opensouce rt61 drivers
[12:55] <ztripez> yoshiznit123, ahhh.. :D been trying to that.. :D thanks
[12:55] <Crazed> but what ? :p
[12:56] <yoshiznit123> np :-)
[12:56] <lupine_85> davey_: rt2x00 or rt61 ?
[12:56] <lupine_85> Or the base ralink driver?
[12:56] <jonah1980> djm62, ok did that and it said it's already mounted
[12:56] <jshadow> hello all, is there a way to force the programs in the bottom panel use the full width of the panel?
[12:56] <lupine_85> ah, the kernel update isn't an ABI change so that's OK
[12:56] <sureshot> hey all how do i change the resolution when it does not give me any options
[12:56] <jshadow> using gnome
[12:56] <davey_> rt61 on an amd64 kernel
[12:57] <lupine_85> davey_: th rt61 driver needs a patch applying for amd64... have you done that
[12:57] <djm62> jonah1980: that's cool
[12:57] <davey_> lupine_85 I think so, are you talking about modding the interface file?
[12:57] <jonah1980> djm62, ok
[12:57] <djm62> jonah1980: and did it say ro on that line?
[12:58] <lupine_85> davey_: no. There's a portion of the source code that isn't 64-bit safe. The patch fixes that, but introduces a (small) memory leak
[12:58] <lupine_85> I'll get a linky for you...
[12:58] <davey_> k
[12:58] <jonah1980> djm62, sorry not with you - sdb1 nothing about ro

[01:00] <sureshot> can someone tell me how to change resolution when it does not give you any options to do so
[01:01] <sj> sureshot: tried using the menu? or are you looking at editing the xorg.conf file?
[01:01] <djm62> jonah1980: sudo fsck -t vfat /media/Kingston

[01:01] <sean> Wow
[01:02] <sean> Full channel
[01:02] <sureshot> the menu does not give any options to do so. the xorg file list all the resolutions i dont know what is going on
[01:02] <nwbreneman> Could somebody help me with an apache2 problem? I've followed the instructions to password protect a directory, but nothing I do makes it work.
[01:02] <boricua> djm62, well when i read official i thought it was more like for a admin not a user
[01:02] <twshadow101> I needed some help, I just installed Ubuntu Linux, and now I can't access my second hard drive. :S Anyone wanna help a newbie LInux user?
[01:02] <sj> sureshot: edit the xorg.conf as per the resolution you need, just use the same syntax
[01:03] <boricua> nwbreneman:  AuthName "Authentication Required"
[01:03] <boricua>   AuthUserFile "/var/www/.htpasswd"
[01:03] <sureshot> sj  how do i edit it is wrote protected
[01:03] <nwbreneman> AH. I see the problem now.
[01:03] <djm62> boricua: you probably want something with an animal on the cover and latex typesetting in between
[01:04] <boricua> djm62, not really come one
[01:04] <nwbreneman> Thanks boricua!

[01:04] <lupine_85> better than no Internet at all, I'm sure :). They are working on fixing it...
[01:04] <boricua> djm62, i dont like oreilly books that much
[01:04] <yoshiznit123> piclez, find where it's mounted, then from command line do chroot '/media/root'
[01:05] <lupine_85> ...you could also try the rt2x00 drivers (which don't have this problem!). They're what Edgy uses
[01:05] <jonah1980> djm62, ok did that
[01:05] <djm62> jonah1980: what was the result?
[01:05] <davey_> lupine_85, are you using it right now?

[01:10] <tgelter> hey ya'll. I am looking for a data recovery program. I deleted some files from a storage drive (which hasn't been written to since I deleted them) then had a partition fail on my machine

[01:10] <jgil> hi greg_zx

[01:11] <tbaur> hey

[01:11] <jonah1980> djm62, yeah did all that and same thing again
[01:11] <lupine_85> osfameron: it would be pulled in if you installed kubuntu-desktop, no doubt, but that'd be a complete pain... hang on

[01:19] <keleus> twshadow101, what partition is your windows system on?
[01:19] <jman8888> Can Ubuntu dual boot with a os on a seperate drive?
[01:19] <cafuego> jman8888: yes
[01:20] <twshadow101> keleus: from what I can tell on LInux its hdd1 on WIndows it was E
[01:20] <lupine_85> compilerwriter: all SIP softphones are inter-connectible
[01:20] <keleus> hdd1?
[01:20] <lupine_85> SIP is an open standard
[01:20] <jonah1980> djm62, ok trying that
[01:20] <keleus> thats what we need
[01:20] <twshadow101> keleus: yeah
[01:20] <compilerwriter> How does one do this then?
[01:20] <Phoul> !quicktime
[01:20] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[01:20] <jman8888> cafuego, Do you have to do anything seperate?
[01:20] <keleus> twshadow101, is there a line starting /dev/hdd1 in the file?
[01:20] <osfameron> lupine_85: heh, no problem, at least I know I wasn't going mad when I couldn't find it before :-)  I think I'll worry about it tomorrow, thanks!
[01:20] <twshadow101> keleus: I know its /dev/hdd1
[01:20] <compilerwriter> I have not tried ekiga yet.
[01:20] <lupine_85> You can even get hardware devices (ATAs) with a network plug on one side, and a 'real' phone plug on the other ;)
[01:20] <knoppMythNewbie> Hi... I've got a bunch of computers... old and slow, that I'm yardsaling.  Would ubuntu be a good os to give with them?  When I started with linux, a decade ago, dial-up to the net was a difficulty.  Is it easier now, with ubuntu?
[01:21] <tgelter> hey ya'll. I am looking for a data recovery program. I deleted some files from a storage drive (which hasn't been written to since I deleted them) then had a partition fail on my machine
[01:21] <lupine_85> compilerwriter: first you need a SIP server/company that provides SIP services
[01:21] <jonah1980> djm62, that seems to be copying so far - it wouldn't at all from within nautilus
[01:21] <lupine_85> these are free for SIP-SIP calls
[01:21] <keleus> twshadow101, .... just tell me if the line is in fstab
[01:21] <djm62> jonah1980: fingers crossed...
[01:21] <keleus> twshadow101, sorry, dont mean to be cross... but i work on a helpdesk and deal with very... thick... people all day
[01:21] <djm62> compilerwriter: http://www.sipphone.com/softphone/
[01:21] <jonah1980> djm62: i appreciate your help on this, thanks a lot
[01:21] <compilerwriter> ekiga doesn't work in and of itself then?
[01:21] <keleus> twshadow101, by the time i get home i have no patience :D
[01:22] <lupine_85> usually you get a geographic number for people to call you from the PSTN network as well
[01:22] <twshadow101> keleus: sorry, im new and I dont understand all the linux stuff just yet.
[01:22] <lupine_85> compilerwriter: neither does skype ;)
[01:22] <compilerwriter> True, but it is a world unto itself.
[01:22] <keleus> twshadow101, I understand, i was there not very long ago. I would hardly consider myself very knowledgable.... but you found the area that i DO know something about :D
[01:22] <compilerwriter> Skype and Ubuntu don't play well with one another.
[01:23] <twshadow101> keleus: in this fstab thing you had me open, I dont even see hdd1 listed
[01:23] <keleus> twshadow101, hmmm.... well lets go about a different way.
[01:23] <twshadow101> keleus: i see hda1, hda5, and hdb
[01:23] <keleus> twshadow101, you already tried to mount it once?
[01:23] <twshadow101> keleus: yes
[01:23] <keleus> btw, you can close that file
[01:23] <twshadow101> done
[01:23] <keleus> make a directory somewhere.
[01:23] <keleus> doesnt matter where or what the name is (no spaces though, makes it less confusing)
[01:23] <sky123> any peeps familiar with vsftpd here..?? got a specific question about setting browse functionality properly
[01:24] <twshadow101> on the desktop or does it really matter?
[01:24] <twshadow101> oh ok
[01:24] <twshadow101> lol
[01:24] <keleus> desktop is fine
[01:24] <keleus> open a terminal
[01:24] <rixxon> when stopping X, how do you get back in without rebooting?
[01:24] <twshadow101> I created one called drive_e
[01:24] <lupine_85> compilerwriter: you can get a quick overview of how SIP works here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_Initiation_Protocol  .  As for a SIP server, I use www.voip.co.uk
[01:24] <archangelpetro> http://rafb.net/paste/results/bXwO6u66.html  could anybody identify the problem and/or state a solution please?
[01:24] <twshadow101> on the desktop
[01:24] <sky123> vsftpd - even after setting up chroot for the user...they can still browse....any ideas??
[01:24] <shibby> rixxon try alt + F5
[01:24] <lupine_85> It's really really easy, and much better than Skype :)
[01:24] <keleus> twshadow101, yea, we need a terminal where we can type stuff and things :)
[01:25] <keleus> i think its in system or utilities
[01:25] <twshadow101> Terminal is open :)
[01:25] <keleus> ok... just cause i need to know which way its mounting
[01:25] <compilerwriter> so a person with windows could use Gizmo, and I could use ekiga?
[01:25] <keleus> "lsmod | grep fuse"
[01:25] <keleus> no quotes
[01:25] <archangelpetro> how does one mount a windows share across a network to a local directory?
[01:25] <rixxon> shibby: i'm talking about when you've done something like ctrl+alt+f1 and you're in a fullscreen terminal. i've tried logging in and running startx with no effect
[01:25] <keleus> did you get anything?
[01:25] <twshadow101> nope
[01:26] <keleus> ok
[01:26] <djm62> jonah1980: if it's done copying, sudo umount /media/Kingston
[01:26] <th1ef> hey im new in ubuntu. can anyone help me about How to install XMMS??
[01:26] <tgelter> thlef: sudo apt-get install xmms
[01:26] <keleus> "sudo mount -t ntfs -o ro,uid=1000,gid=1000,nls=utf8 /dev/hdd1 /home/USERNAME/Desktop/FOLDERYOUMADE"
[01:27] <jonah1980> djm62, it's throwing up some input/output errors at moment - guess it's the corrupt files
[01:27] <keleus> make sure you fix the paths.... see USERNAME and FOLDERYOUMADE
[01:27] <rummik> how should i partition this drive so that it can dual boot linux and windows?
[01:27] <twshadow101> yes
[01:27] <oskar_> I'm trying to use my ATI Radeon 9800 Pro video card as my OpenGL renderer, but I can't change it from the default mesa
[01:27] <grimboy> What's the name of that command that you run when you connect a device to see what's been put in dev?
[01:27] <keleus> rummik, install windows FIRST and do it on hda1
[01:27] <shibby> rixxon yes try with F5 i or else Fx
[01:27] <keleus> rummik, then the rest is ridiculously easy
[01:27] <twshadow101> it asked for a pass, so I put one in which I use for Unbunto and then it did nothing
[01:27] <archangelpetro> hmm :/
[01:27] <keleus> twshadow101, nothing you SAW....
[01:27] <jonah1980> djm62, it's taking an age
[01:27] <th1ef> hey im new in ubuntu. can anyone help me about How to install XMMS??
[01:28] <keleus> go open that folder
[01:28] <twshadow101> keleus: I clicked on the folder and got this, "You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "drive_e"."
[01:28] <djm62>  jonah1980: if it's taking ridiculously long, you might want to ctrl-C out of it and consider how valuable the data is on it...
[01:28] <rixxon> shibby: i just don't see why that would start X in a _terminal_?
[01:28] <archangelpetro> th1ef: sudo apt-get install xmms
[01:28] <twshadow101> keleus: same thing I got in file manager
[01:28] <keleus> twshadow101, ok, where is the folder?
[01:28] <rummik> keleus: so, i let windows do the partitioning? :O
[01:28] <twshadow101> keleus: desktop
[01:28] <keleus> rummik, for itself
[01:28] <keleus> twshadow101, folder name? and your usernam? (capital letters count)
[01:28] <JDStone> i'm using dpkg-buildpackage to make a package of lirc, but when I do that, it says I need to run './configure'
[01:29] <th1ef> archangelpetro: E: Couldn't find package xmms
[01:29] <oskar_> can any one help me with my video card, I want to use it for OpenGL but I can't change it from Mesa
[01:29] <JDStone> does anyone know why? can someone help me?
[01:29] <twshadow101> keleus: everything is lower case
[01:29] <JDStone> i'm following this guide: http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2006/08/16/Building-deb-package-from-source
[01:29] <rummik> keleus: should i worry about putting a small linux partition before it, or is that nothing?
[01:29] <djm62> jonah1980: is it stuff you have copies of? is there anything special about the memory card or is it just a generic fat32 memory card?
[01:29] <keleus> twshadow101, Desktop isnt lowercase
[01:29] <grimboy> th1ef, use the synaptic package manager
[01:29] <keleus> anyways, fix the paths then...
[01:29] <Kibou[banned] > JDStone: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/ you find the same guide in yelp
[01:29] <twshadow101> keleus: no I left Desktop alone
[01:29] <archangelpetro> th1ef: apt-get update
[01:29] <shibby> rixxxon i think i dont understand what u are talking about lol, u are in a black terminal ok ?
[01:29] <th1ef> i have do that
[01:29] <th1ef> but the same
[01:29] <archangelpetro> th1ef: you need your sources list to be updated
[01:29] <twshadow101> keleus: it mounted but it says I odnt have permission to vew it
[01:29] <twshadow101> dont*
[01:29] <JDStone> thanks Kibou[banned] 
[01:30] <shibby> rixxon and u want back in X ?
[01:30] <twshadow101> view*
[01:30] <th1ef> archangelpetro: what my list should include?
[01:30] <djm62> jonah1980: and by way of background, how big is it?
[01:30] <rixxon> shibby: yes
[01:30] <keleus> "ls -Llah /home/USERNAME/FOLDERYOUMADE/" and tell me what one of the lines reads (copy/paste ONE Line).. thats two els after the ls btw
[01:30] <rixxon> shibby: ctrl+alt+f1 stops X and gives a fullscreen terminal stating "[hostname]  login:"
[01:30] <jonah1980> djm62, mostly it's just junk or songs whatever, but i've got a couple of work docs on there but it seems to have copied everything like that, it's just struggling with the .Trash folder contents
[01:30] <shibby> rixxon so type alt + ctrl + F5 or F6 or F7 or F9  --> try
[01:30] <grimboy> Can anyone remember the name of that command that you run when you connect a device to see what's been put in dev? I've tried apropos to no avail
[01:30] <twshadow101> keleus: it only gave me: ls: /home/tyler/drive_e: No such file or directory
[01:30] <th1ef> grimboy: what my list should include?
[01:30] <jonah1980> djm62, it's a 2gb card
[01:31] <rixxon> shibby: shouldn't i run some command? o_O
[01:31] <rummik> k>
[01:31] <shibby> rixxon that's work for me
[01:31] <keleus> twshadow101, .... sorry... "ls -Llah /home/user/Desktop/FOLDERYOUMADE/"
[01:31] <shibby> rixxon i dont think so
[01:31] <wladston> Guys, ubuntu's grub suddely screwed up, and now I can restore grub anymore. It says root@ubuntu:/#  grub-install /dev/sda -- /dev/sda: Not found or not a block device. anyone can help me?
[01:31] <Jack_Sparrow> I want to use an HP printer on this machine's LPT1 from another Ubuntu Laptop connected to the same router.  Both have internet access so the net is working ... Just need some printer config help
[01:31] <djm62> jonah1980: damn, that's a lot to work with.  can you check that you have the essential stuff backed up now?
[01:32] <twshadow101> keleus: "ls: /home/tyler/Desktop/drive_e: Permission denied"
[01:32] <keleus> hmm.... stick a sudo in front
[01:32] <twshadow101> ok
[01:32] <jonah1980> djm62, yeah it's backed up all the important stuff in one of the first folders it did, it's still trying to copy .trash and there is a music folder also to go
[01:32] <keleus> FYI, you can press up to get the last line... and hit HOME to jump to the beginning of the line
[01:32] <archangelpetro> th1ef: mount: http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[01:32] <sean> chaos
[01:32] <archangelpetro> minus mount*
[01:32] <keleus> you dont have to retype it all
[01:33] <tgelter> so I take it that nobody knows about data recovery software for linux?
[01:33] <twshadow101> it showed me what folders are on it
[01:33] <wladston> i want my computer back ... :.-(
[01:33] <grimboy> th1ef, If you go into synaptic package manager and go do settings > repositories, then tick everything.
[01:33] <Jack_Sparrow> tgelter: Recovery of XP or Linux software?
[01:33] <keleus> twshadow101, ok... but can you copy a line here, i need some of the info
[01:33] <twshadow101> there is 20 lines lol
[01:33] <twshadow101> which one?
[01:34] <th1ef> where i can find synaptic package manager?? im a n00b sorry!
[01:34] <keleus> any
[01:34] <shibby> wladston did u try  ? root(hd0) ? or something like that ?
[01:34] <tgelter> Jack_Sparrow: I have a FAT32 partition (external hard drive) that I deleted files from that I need back
[01:34] <twshadow101> ls -Llah /home/tyler/Desktop/drive_e
[01:34] <grimboy> th1ef, in your ubuntu menu under administration
[01:34] <twshadow101> oops
[01:34] <twshadow101> sorry
[01:34] <twshadow101> dr-x------ 1 root  root   4.0K 2006-08-02 14:31 My Documents
[01:34] <keleus> lol dont forget the sudo
[01:34] <keleus> hhmmmm
[01:34] <keleus> hold on, i did something wrong earlier then
[01:34] <grimboy> th1ef, Have you found it?
[01:34] <shibby> wladston i mean before type grub-install ...
[01:34] <keleus> it should say dr-x------- 1 tyler tyler         blahblah
[01:35] <rixxon> shibby: thanks, it works fine. i'm beginning to understand how this works now
[01:35] <twshadow101> only one line says it
[01:35] <archangelpetro> th1ef: go to that site.. get it to generate you sources.list  then overwrite it into /etc/apt/sources.list       then type "apt-get update && apt-get install synaptic"
[01:35] <shibby> rixxon no problem ;)
[01:35] <twshadow101> drwxr-xr-x 3 tyler tyler  4.0K 2006-09-14 19:28 ..
[01:35] <djm62> jonah1980: if the important stuff is across, cancel out of it, umount the device, verify that the files are really there and format it
[01:35] <twshadow101> the rest are under root
[01:36] <keleus> twshadow101, yea. the directory ".." is the directory that the current directory is in... which in your case is /home/tyler/Desktop
[01:36] <keleus> "." is the directory itself
[01:36] <twshadow101> oooh ok
[01:36] <dk06> how do i lauch cedega
[01:36] <dk06> 5.1.3
[01:36] <djm62> jonah1980: well, this is my advice, and you should be aware that it will definitely destroy any files on the card and that you're comfortable with that as an attempt to fix it
[01:36] <twshadow101> the directory itself is root
[01:36] <twshadow101> dr-x------ 1 root  root    20K 2006-09-14 12:38 .
[01:36] <keleus> twshadow101, ok, "sudo umount /dev/hdd1"
[01:36] <twshadow101> ok
[01:37] <twshadow101> done
[01:37] <Trigger_H> twshadow101, mounting ntfs?
[01:37] <twshadow101> I put it in and nothing happened now im back at the command line
[01:37] <Jack_Sparrow> I want to use an HP printer on this machine's LPT1 from another Ubuntu Laptop connected to the same router.  Both have internet access so the net is working ... Just need some printer config help
[01:37] <keleus> twshadow101, ok... this is too hard to do remotly (considering i use FUSE instead of regular mounting)
[01:37] <keleus> twshadow101, instead, im going to point you HERE: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:38] <Trigger_H> !ntfs-3g
[01:38] <twshadow101> lol, I stump you?
[01:38] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution. Dapper installation instructions http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710
[01:38] <Trigger_H> ^^ there you go twshadow101
[01:38] <Tonren> Guys, I'm trying to format my CompactFlash card through a USB Zio! reader, and every time I use Gparted to format to FAT32, it actually mounts the drive and opens it in Nautilus, then gives me an error
[01:38] <oskar_> I really need help with my ATI card, I would really appriciate it if someone could help me with tat
[01:38] <Tonren> Can nayone hlep?
[01:38] <Tonren> Wow.  That was horrendous.
[01:38] <keleus> twshadow101, but pay attention to the section "Accessing the Files on Your Windows Partition From Ubuntu"
[01:38] <tgelter> what repository do I need to install the amd64-k8-smp kernel?
[01:38] <keleus> twshadow101, DO NOT USE NTFS-3G
[01:38] <shibby> oskar_ what happen to u ?
[01:38] <dannyr> Hurrah - I finally got gld working - can anyone please reccommend a virus checker to fit in with postfix, courier, spamassassin and gld - not ClamAV - I have had disasters with this?
[01:38] <keleus> twshadow101, at your level of experience something bad might happen
[01:39] <djm62> jonah1980: actually you might want to try dosfsck -n /dev/sdb1 as a last attempt at recovery before wiping it
[01:39] <keleus> Trigger_H, hes only trying to read his data
[01:39] <oskar_> shibby: I want to use it as the open gl renderer, but I can't do it
[01:39] <oskar_> i wont swithch from mesa
[01:39] <phaedrus44> what software or driver should i look for to install a usb video capture device?
[01:39] <Trigger_H> keleus: i guess
[01:39] <keleus> Trigger_H, normal mount -t ntfs will work if he can get it to stop mounting everything as root:root
[01:39] <Tonren> Also, can anyone tell me what command is actually triggered when you select "Eject" from the right click GNOME menu, causing changes to be written to the flash memory?
[01:39] <Hatty> Whats a good DVD player for ubuntu?
[01:39] <Trigger_H> keleus: it has to do with the umask
[01:39] <twshadow101> keleus, yeah im trying to use like a regular hdd
[01:39] <shibby> oskar_ sorry cant help u :s
[01:40] <Kibou[banned] > Tonren: umount probably
[01:40] <djm62> jonah1980: I got this from googling, in case it's any good to you: http://gentoo-wiki.com/Photo_Recovery_From_Defective_Memory_Card
[01:40] <oskar_> ok , tahnks
[01:40] <jonah1980> djm62, ok i'll cancel it and give taht a try
[01:40] <Trigger_H> keleus: when you change the umask setting when you mount to 0000 it works for all users
[01:40] <Trigger_H> for default ntfs drivers
[01:40] <keleus> Trigger_H, drue
[01:40] <keleus> true
[01:40] <Tonren> Kibou[banned] : Well... I'm using Gparted to reformat this flash memory, see?  And I delete the existing FS, then make a new partition.  But... when I make the new partition, it RE-MOUNTS the flash memory, and the old files are STILL THERE!
[01:41] <keleus> Trigger_H, twshadow101, unfortunatly i need to get going.
[01:41] <Tonren> Kibou[banned] : But the thing is that it's already unmounted when I'm gpartediting it
[01:41] <twshadow101> Trigger_H and keleus: can I change that setting?
[01:41] <twshadow101> ok
[01:41] <Trigger_H> keleus: take it easy
[01:41] <keleus> Tonren, deleting and recreating partitions do nothing
[01:41] <Tonren> Kibou[banned] : So it appears that it is not "committing" Its changes to the compact flash card.
[01:41] <UKMatt> so what is the newest CVS version of glitz and how can i compile it?
[01:41] <twshadow101> keleus: see ya
[01:41] <Tonren> keleus: Really.  I didn't know that...
[01:41] <keleus> Ahh, your mocking him
[01:42] <Kibou[banned] > Tonren: I never used gparted. have you tried to format it manually already?
[01:42] <dk06> lol
[01:42] <npodges> how do you set the default networking device from the terminal?
[01:42] <Tonren> Kibou[banned] : I don't know how.  I just tried to figure out how to format things on the command line, because I prefer to us ethe command line, btu I couldn't figure it out
[01:42] <ivx> hey if i am going to install ubuntu on a computer with dual pIII do i have to do anything special
[01:42] <Tonren> Kibou[banned] : could you walk me through the CLI for formatting?
[01:42] <Kibou[banned] > Tonren: I can try
[01:42] <Trigger_H> npodges: i told you last time you were in #ubuntu
[01:42] <dk06> anyone here use Cedegea before?
[01:43] <dk06> *cedega
[01:43] <Tonren> Kibou[banned] : Thanks.  OK.  So it's on /dev/sda1. What do I do?
[01:43] <keleus> Kibou[banned] , ..... partitions dont change filesystem, if you delete a partition, shut the machine down, restart, and make the partitions starting and ending on the same spots.... it will all still be there.
[01:43] <npodges> trigger_h sorry :-/
[01:43] <PhilH> dk06, yes
[01:43] <dk06> phil
[01:43] <Tonren> keleus: I had no idea.  THat's totally awesome
[01:43] <dk06> can u help me install it
[01:43] <Trigger_H> npodges: sudo ifconfig <INTERAFCE> <UP/DOWN> (for on or off)
[01:43] <PhilH> quite possibly
[01:43] <dk06> i have the tar
[01:43] <dk06> and i untared it
[01:43] <dk06> what do i do now
[01:43] <Kibou[banned] > keleus: ...
[01:43] <Trigger_H> npodges: ifconfig to list the interfaces

[01:43] <PhilH> ok
[01:44] <keleus> Kibou[banned] , you need to make sure the start of the partition is in the same place though. usually you can make the end of the partition farther along the disk to enlarge the FS. you usually have to check the FS for errors to get it to realize what you did though
[01:44] <shibby> I have 386 and K7 kernel, and now i can update both of them, must i update the two ? or just K7 ( i use the k7 kernel )
[01:45] <PhilH> dk06, it isn't working
[01:45] <keleus> Kibou[banned] , and... what all this means: the partition is litterly just a table at teh beginning of the disk saying where each section lives.
[01:45] <dk06> you cant read it?
[01:45] <keleus> anyways.... im off. dont wanna be late :)
[01:45] <PhilH> dk06,nope
[01:45] <dk06> oh
[01:45] <dk06> thats because you didnt register your name
[01:45] <PhilH> dk06, i've been having trouble today
[01:45] <dk06> i guess
[01:46] <dk06> thats ok
[01:46] <dk06> lets go to a private room

[01:47] <tjb891> is it possible to make wget ignore robots.txt when it does a recursive download?
[01:47] <Trigger_H> !test
[01:47] <JDStone> where do I put the .deb package so I can install it using apt-get?  Or do I have to install it some other way?
[01:47] <ubotu> Failed.
[01:47] <lupine_85> JDstone: right-click and select install... ;)
[01:47] <chibiace> tjb891: yes i think its in the manual
[01:47] <tjb891> ok
[01:47] <lupine_85> or dpkg -i <filename>
[01:47] <Jack_Sparrow> I want to use an HP printer on this Ubuntu machine's LPT1 from another Ubuntu Laptop connected to the same router.  Both have internet access so the net is working ... Just need some printer config help
[01:47] <tjb891> thx
[01:47] <JDStone> ahh, ok, thanks lupine_85
[01:49] <chibiace> hope this kernel update doesnt screw something up
[01:49] <jonah1980> djm62, ok i reformatted etc and i'm copying files back across - i think the reformat robbed me of some memory card space though!! but not sure - the properties say 300 and odd used mb and 600 and odd spare but it should amount to 2gb
[01:50] <djm62> jonah1980: that's really weird
[01:50] <jonah1980> djm62, oh well at least there's no weird files so thanks a lot for your help again
[01:51] <djm62> jonah1980: if I were you, and I'm not, I wouldn't be inclined to regard that memory card as /very/ trustworthy
[01:51] <jonah1980> djm62, i'm gonna go get some sleep - yeah i think you're right, i maybe won't put such important things on this card in future!! bye for now...
[01:51] <djm62> jonah1980: bonne chance
[01:51] <wall0159> hey all. I've just upgraded my PC to AMD64, and have installed Dapper. For some odd reason, there's no setenv command! Not sure which package this is part of.. can anyone point me in the right direction?
[01:53] <alex_ndc> Can anyone give me advice on how to get newer Mono packages (1.1.17) ... or at least point me to a good tutorial on building deb packages from tarballs ?
[01:53] <javiolo> is there any way to use sshfs on the gnome shared folder app ?
[01:54] <JDStone> when I try to install the debian package I just created, I receive this: dpkg: error processing lirc_0.8.0-1_i386.deb (--install):
[01:54] <JDStone>  trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/liblirc_client.la', which is also in package liblircclient0
[01:54] <JDStone> what do I do?
[01:58] <wall0159> Apologies - looking further on line, it appears that setenv is deprecated in favour of 'export' - has this been the case for a while (it's an older csh thing)? I'm certain I've used (un)setenv on Fedora at work..?
[01:58] <killown> algum brasileiro aqui?
[01:58] <JoseStefan> !br
[01:58] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[01:58] <killown> no
[02:01] <Sgeo> How do I disable the 30 mount check?
[02:01] <X-Rob> Warm Fuzzies: Bought a new dell laptop. Did the accept windows things, blah blah, updated. Inserted ubuntu 6.06 cd, booted, repartitioned, installed. Worked flawlessly.
[02:01] <X-Rob> Good works, guys.
[02:03] <phaedrus44> my hard drive is showing full but i deleted a bunch of stuff....what should i do now?
[02:03] <turbomatic> hi
[02:04] <chibiace> phaedrus44: empty your trash
[02:04] <phaedrus44> uh..how do i do that?
[02:05] <chibiace> phaedrus44: the trash icon on the lower panel?
[02:05] <phaedrus44> i use fluxbox
[02:05] <turbomatic> I have connected my ubuntu box to a network CUPS printer, but it seems that after a few seconds being connected, the Ubuntu printer becomes paused, and no print jobs make it to the CUPS server or the printer
[02:05] <turbomatic> I also see "/usr/lib/cups/backend/http failed" on http://localhost:631/printers/ on the Ubuntu box
[02:05] <chibiace> phaedrus44: you were deleting with rm?
[02:05] <phaedrus44> yah
[02:06] <turbomatic> resuming the printer doesn't help because it pauses again in a short while
[02:06] <chibiace> phaedrus44: perhaps its not updating the numbers, reboot?
[02:06] <phaedrus44> yeah m,abye......ill do that
[02:07] <bungopolis> I'm on a fresh install of 6.01.1 LTS server (AMD64) with a RAID1 configuration and I'm getting  "raid array is not clean -- starting background reconstruction" at every boot. I was told in #linux it could be a shutdown script issue. Any ideas?
[02:08] <chibiace> bungopolis: i have no exp with raid but quite possibly it is the shutdown script not doing its job properly. get any Failed when your shutting down?
[02:08] <bungopolis> chibiace: nope, no alerts at shutdown
[02:09] <RagingBull> I have a few questions about Ubuntu, can anyone help me?
[02:09] <bungopolis> RagingBull: ask away
[02:10] <len> is it just me or system update is really slow???
[02:10] <printk> change your repos
[02:10] <turbomatic> I see this in the cups error_log:  Print file was not accepted (client-error-bad-request)!
[02:10] <printk> rather your mirror i mean
[02:11] <RagingBull> bungopolis: I sent you a private message
[02:11] <silverfox> does anyone here uses kopete + xmms ?
[02:11] <len> I'm dling 1kb<
[02:11] <silverfox> i want the plugin for kopete :P
[02:11] <linux1> wondering if i should blindly install the glx driver update like i did the xorg core update lastime.  In other words should i be foolish with ubuntu upgrades once again?
[02:11] <lupine_85> yes :)
[02:11] <bungopolis> RagingBull: please ask your question in the main room
[02:11] <lupine_85> foolish==up to date
[02:11] <RagingBull> ok then
[02:12] <RagingBull> well, I am using a mac and am wondering if I could install Ubuntu on it
[02:12] <Sgeo> Be back in ~30min all
[02:12] <lupine_85> !PPC
[02:12] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers, and now a fully supported Ubuntu architecture.
[02:12] <RagingBull> so, that's a yes
[02:12] <bungopolis> RagingBull: is it a PPC or Intel mac?
[02:12] <javiolo> ragingbull its possible
[02:12] <RagingBull> PPC
[02:12] <javiolo> Im right now on a mac mini
[02:13] <RagingBull> me too
[02:13] <javiolo> running ubuntu...
[02:13] <RagingBull> so, you're my man then
[02:13] <RagingBull> I can still use Ubuntu AND Mac, correct?
[02:13] <javiolo> its easy to install
[02:13] <linux1> sheesh just get a old p3 1 ghz and run ubuntu on that
[02:13] <javiolo> just insert the cd, and press c
[02:14] <javiolo> and follow the installation
[02:14] <JoseStefan> linux1, i did today's xorg update, flawless
[02:14] <RagingBull> but, I can still switch OS'?
[02:14] <linux1> Jose: thanks
[02:14] <JoseStefan> linux1, and yes, i have already restarted :P
[02:14] <RagingBull> how do I switch between the two?
[02:14] <javiolo> ragingbull yes, but I have only ubuntu on this macmini not osx
[02:14] <chibiace> there was an xorg update? i only got kernel updates
[02:15] <linux1> glx driver update
[02:15] <JoseStefan> chibiace, true, meant nvidia glx
[02:15] <chibiace> ah
[02:15] <JoseStefan> chibiace: good point, my mind was somewhere else
[02:15] <linux1> hopefully chromium wont crash anymore
[02:16] <chibiace> heh that game is insane
[02:16] <RagingBull> javiolo: how do I switch then?
[02:16] <chibiace> i gotta reboot sometime
[02:17] <javiolo> ragingbull http://www.philroche.net/archives/osx-and-ubuntu-dual-boot/
[02:17] <eugman> Ok, is there a way to roll back to a previous kernel? The most recent update broke nvidia. I did a reconfig and the nv drivers work but the nvidia drivers don't seem to.
[02:17] <kads> how can i speed up network printing from winxp
[02:18] <eugman> A way preferably that can be done from the command line.
[02:18] <cafuego> Buy a printer with a non-crap XP driver.
[02:18] <j2daosh> what is the application that will allow me to have 7 different desktops?
[02:18] <j2daosh> there is one application that changes inittab and will allow me to run gui's on tty's other then 7
[02:19] <matt_> Why did the chicken cross the road?
[02:19] <j2daosh> it starts with an "e"
[02:19] <eugman> Ok, is there a way to roll back to a previous kernel? The most recent update broke nvidia. I did a reconfig and the nv drivers work but the nvidia drivers don't seem to.
[02:19] <eugman> whoops
[02:19] <kads> how can i speed up network printing from winxp
[02:19] <eugman> Though I had went to #ubuntu-unregged
[02:19] <JoseStefan> eugman, did you upgrade both the kernel and the driver?
[02:20] <eugman> JoseStefan, the update manager only listed the kernel.
[02:20] <eugman> Should a apt-get update && apt-get upgrade fix things?
[02:20] <Jack_Sparrow> eugman: Are you running 686 kernel?
[02:20] <j2daosh> anyone?
[02:21] <JoseStefan> eugman, are you using the nvidia driver, or the xorg nv driver?
[02:21] <eugman> Jack_Sparrow, don't know.
[02:21] <phaedrus44> can someone help me figure out why my 5 gig drive is full?   my installation is on the drive and my only users home directory is empty yet the 5 gigs is full....dont get it
[02:21] <eugman> JoseStefan, Nvidia. Nv works witht he kernel although it looks a little off.
[02:22] <no0tic> my wireless card doesn't work with wep encrypted nets... what can I do?
[02:22] <phaedrus44> no0tic   what card is it?
[02:22] <JoseStefan> eugman, put the results of this on the pastebin: apt-cache policy nvidia-glx
[02:22] <Jack_Sparrow> eugman: I have seen the upgrade hose the nvidia driver for the 686 kernel .. DOnt know how to roll it back but using the 386 gets the res back until a fix is found
[02:22] <no0tic> phaedrus44, ipw3945
[02:23] <bnovc> i was wondering if anyone knew how to get windows in gaim to stop fading in and out even after you've seen the newest message
[02:23] <eugman> JoseStefan, is there a way to do that from the command like or will I need to reconfig xserver to use the nv drivers?
[02:23] <eugman> er, command line
[02:23] <JoseStefan> the pastebin from CLI? not sure
[02:24] <JoseStefan> eugman, the output is not long, you can just type the version # for me, instead of paste
[02:24] <eugman> ok
[02:24] <eugman> one moment
[02:25] <javiolo> pastebin from the cli ? http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/16545.html
[02:25] <no0tic> phaedrus44, it is an intel centrino core duo
[02:26] <eugman> 1.0.8762+26.15.11-3 0
[02:26] <eugman> whoops
[02:26] <JoseStefan> eugman, ok, i have 1.0.8762+2.6.15.11-4 dapper
[02:26] <eugman> 1.0.8762+2.6.15.11-3 0
[02:27] <eugman> so, do an update and stuff?
[02:27] <JoseStefan> eugman you might want to try the update
[02:27] <JoseStefan> eugman, afaik you have 'yesterdays' version
[02:28] <PhilH> bnovc, you somtimes need to type in the text entry box
[02:28] <SurfnKid> !dwg
[02:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dwg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:28] <SurfnKid> whats a good cad viewer
[02:28] <JoseStefan> eugman: check this too: apt-cache policy linux-image-$(uname -r)
[02:28] <bnovc> PhilH: that does stop it, but is there a fix w/o?
[02:28] <billytwowilly> so yah. I think I discovered a bug in the ubuntu non livecd installer...
[02:28] <JoseStefan> !bug
[02:28] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu, please report it at http://bugs.ubuntu.com
[02:29] <jvai> anybody uses screem web editor? is it good?

[02:30] <JoseStefan> eugman: ctrl+alt+del
[02:30] <jake45> can someone tell me the easiest way to get my screen resolution to 1280 by1024  ubuntu wont recognize my card
[02:30] <javiolo> jvai try bluefish or nvu
[02:31] <jvai> they r bettr?
[02:31] <jvai> i was reading reviews of those last night, well of bluefish
[02:31] <javiolo> I dont know the one you use
[02:31] <jvai> yea, nvu was n the reviews also
[02:31] <mmaraxx> hi all
[02:32] <PhilH> bnovc
[02:32] <PhilH> bnovc, open up your preferences dialogue
[02:33] <PhilH> bnovc: look for Message Notification under Plugins
[02:33] <PhilH> bnovc: the notification removal check boxes should help
[02:34] <eternalswd> how do I do crc checks?
[02:34] <Wanted> hellu ubuntuworld
[02:34] <JoseStefan> eternalswd, md5 ?
[02:35] <bnovc> PhilH: ah, well my gf likes the notification but has been complaining to me that it blinks inappropriately
[02:35] <PhilH> eternalswd, crc32?
[02:35] <PhilH> eternalswd, md5sum would probably be better though
[02:35] <Wanted> my problem is thath in normal user, after update kernel and reboot...the link such as synaptic in system->administrator not present(sorry for my english)
[02:36] <SurfnKid> whats a good dwg viewer ??
[02:36] <eternalswd> JoseStefan, PhilH is md5sum a program?
[02:36] <JoseStefan> eternalswd, yes
[02:36] <PhilH> bnovc, yeah, don't want it flashing inappropriately at your GF
[02:36] <Luakagon> I installed an embedded .pdf viewer with automatix but it's not working, how can I remove it?
[02:36] <eternalswd> okay, thanks
[02:36] <PhilH> with automatix i guess
[02:36] <JoseStefan> eternalswd, md5sum --help
[02:37] <Luakagon> automatix didn't work
[02:37] <JoseStefan> eternalswd, as running it without parameters will do 'nothing' forcing you to exit with ctrl+c
[02:37] <Luakagon> heh
[02:37] <Luakagon> the solution - go to plugin panel on browser configuration and remove the pdf one
[02:37] <bnovc> PhilH: ;)
[02:37] <eternalswd> okay, thanks again
[02:38] <Trae> How do you change the icon in Gnome for the "Main Menu"   [Note: NOT Menu Bar] 
[02:38] <bnovc> every little thing that doesnt work in linux for her makes her go nuts cause i put ubuntu on her computer
[02:38] <toresbe> Hello, I have noticed upon upgrading from ...some previous Ubuntu distibution - to Dapper, that the Lock Screen button on the Places or System menu has disappeared
[02:38] <bnovc> i have most of it working though...totem wouldnt play her mp3s and she flipped out, so i got her to install mplayer and onw i think she only hates the blinking and the enormous size of the gnome desktop icons and i dont know how to fixeitehr
[02:38] <Trae> Also, if anyone knows how to remove Kubuntu splash from my Ubuntu, I'd appreciate help with that.
[02:38] <Trae> heh
[02:38] <toresbe> Is there a way to return it?
[02:38] <tonyyarusso> If someone has a dual-boot Ubuntu/Windows, can a virtualization program be used to "boot" the existing Windows installation from within Ubuntu, or do you have to install it as a virtual image for that?
[02:38] <PhilH> bnovc, heh, never has a man been so commited to filing bug reports ;-)
[02:39] <toresbe> bnovc: Maybe you should've just installed the gstreamer mp3 plugins in stead?
[02:39] <PhilH> tonyyarusso, sort or, but it's not advisable
[02:39] <tonyyarusso> PhilH: How come?
[02:39] <jrib> Trae: usplash?
[02:40] <Trae> jrib, yeah I think that's what it is.
[02:40] <harris2004> i am always wondering whats ubuntu??? alunix os?
[02:40] <PhilH> tonyyarusso, something to do with direct disk access, and of course the driver profile will be all wrong
[02:40] <JoseStefan> !ubuntu
[02:40] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[02:40] <jrib> Trae: sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so   and then   sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$(uname -r)
[02:40] <harris2004> oh so its os
[02:40] <tonyyarusso> PhilH: Hmm. 'k.
[02:41] <jvai> lol
[02:41] <Trae> jrib, got it ;) danke
[02:41] <eternalswd> okay, the value I was given for the file by the server was F2D6D960.  the value I got from md5sum is 4fdfe7ac46db292000670dc3f5bcbf34 so how do I compare the two?
[02:41] <mournsanity> Is there an easy way to install a new gnome splash screen? Like with a GUI program?
[02:41] <jrib> mournsanity: like gnome-splashscreen-manager ?
[02:41] <PhilH> eternalswd, if you're using crc on the server then use crc32 on your end to
[02:42] <mournsanity> ah, there we go
[02:42] <Trae> jrib, one last one.... how do I get gdm to be default DM again?
[02:42] <eternalswd> okay, thanks
[02:42] <mournsanity> thanks
[02:42] <Trae> jrib, ;)
[02:42] <JoseStefan> eternalswd, the server is providing another type of hash/sum
[02:42] <PhilH> eternalswd, crc32 filename
[02:42] <Milktea> Does anyone here use limewire on Ubuntu?
[02:42] <jrib> Trae: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[02:42] <Trae> jrib, you are too kind sir
[02:42] <tonyyarusso> mournsanity: I'm not sure, but the Gnome Art Manager might do splash screens.
[02:42] <Trae> jrib, danke
[02:42] <Milktea> Limewire can't find my JRE
[02:42] <jrib> Trae: np
[02:42] <Milktea> :(
[02:42] <NthDegree> Milktea: Limewire is not good
[02:42] <Milktea> Why not?
[02:42] <JoseStefan> PhilH, he might need a pkg for that
[02:42] <NthDegree> Milktea:  Get Frostwire
[02:42] <Milktea> Frostwire?
[02:42] <eternalswd> okay, thanks got it.
[02:43] <Trae> jrib, as payment, feel free to listen to my bands tunes for free on theinterference.com  *chuckle*
[02:43] <MichaelS> anyone else run into a scenario where you get 5~ printed out in a terminal window when pressing ctrl+pg up or ctrl+pg down?
[02:43] <NthDegree> Milktea:  Limewire had content restrictions added in and god knows what
[02:43] <jrib> Trae: ok thank you :)
[02:43] <JoseStefan> !frostwire > Milktea
[02:43] <NthDegree> Milktea:  so the Limewire peeps forked another one called Frostwire
[02:43] <Milktea> Where can I get Frostwire, and does it connect to the Limewire server?
[02:43] <Trae> We've got some kick butt stuff we are going into the studio soon again to record
[02:43] <Trae> can't wait
[02:43] <PhilH> NthDegree, what kind of content restrictions?
[02:43] <JoseStefan> Milktea, read the msg from ubotu
[02:43] <terlmann> help
[02:44] <Milktea> okay thanks
[02:44] <NthDegree> PhilH: they may be forced to place DRM on it and restrict illegal mp3 downloads
[02:44] <PhilH> NthDegree, point being that at present it has no such restrictions
[02:44] <phaedrus44> jopin #mythtv-users
[02:45] <PhilH> NthDegree, careful with the FUD, even if frostwire is a better product
[02:45] <Wanted> my problem is thath in normal user, after update kernel and reboot...the link such as synaptic in system->administrator not present(sorry for my english)
[02:45] <NthDegree> PhilH: wrong, it has content filtering enabled unless you select otherwise when you 1st set it up
[02:45] <JoseStefan> FrostWire might be easier to install in ubuntu
[02:45] <PhilH> NthDegree, when you say content filtering exactly what do you mean?
[02:45] <jvai> anybody use the demonoid website?
[02:45] <NthDegree> PhilH: anything without a license not appearing on search results
[02:45] <PhilH> the question it asks you about allowing you access to non CC licensed media?
[02:46] <Trae> bbiab, restarting GDM
[02:46] <Ginks> with Ubuntu even install on a machine without 128mb of ram?
[02:46] <Ginks> err, 192
[02:46] <Kibou[banned] > jvai: why?
[02:46] <Ginks> got an old desktop I figured I'd use it on instead of XP
[02:46] <terlmann> i have a major ubuntu ptoblem! i tried to run msudo nautilus as user terlmann but the thing ran as "hal" and now my screen is whacked out,the bottom menu are 3 inches from the bottom of the screen,and the mouse pointer has to locate 1 inch BELOW the dialog i wanna click... has anyone got a solution?
[02:46] <NthDegree> PhilH: uh the question it now asks about any non-licensed media yeah
[02:46] <jvai> demonoid uses bittorrent for p2p, some1 suggested to me
[02:46] <CrippsFX> Ginks, you can do it ... you'll probably want to use a very lightweight window manager though, like fluxbox
[02:46] <Ginks> the desktop runs XP fine, dunno why Ubuntu would be more demanding
[02:46] <Kibou[banned] > jvai: it does
[02:46] <JoseStefan> Ginks, maybe, consider Xubuntu, which has a smaller memory footprint. And consider the alternate install CD (instead of desktop cd)
[02:46] <Ginks> k, cool CrippsFX
[02:47] <Ginks> k
[02:47] <MichaelS> has nobody else experienced that?
[02:47] <CrippsFX> Ginks, yeah, Xubuntu is fine too because XFCE4 is aimed towards being a lightweight wm
[02:47] <jadacyrus> Okay I just installed Xubuntu over normal Ubuntu, and now im getting a Grub Error 15.
[02:47] <Ginks> k, cool
[02:48] <Wanted> wanted   tty1         2006-09-15 02:12
[02:48] <Wanted> wanted   :0           2006-09-15 01:50
[02:48] <jvai> is fluxbox good on dapper/
[02:48] <Wanted> sorry
[02:48] <Wanted> my problem is thath in normal user, after update kernel and reboot...the link such as synaptic in system->administrator not present(sorry for my english)
[02:48] <Trae> jrib, thanks again... you don't know much about gnome do you?
[02:48] <fildo> fluxbox is da shiznit
[02:48] <Trae> NthDegree, heh, weren't you just on a KDE channel yesterday?  ;)
[02:49] <jvai> fluxbox makes dapper.. lighter?
[02:49] <NthDegree> yeah
[02:49] <bnovc> toresbe: i probably should have but i didnt realize it was a necessity until afterward...i assume ubuntu would have come with it and i am used tomplayer a lot more
[02:49] <NthDegree> doesn't mean I haven't used gnome before XD
[02:49] <Trae> NthDegree, nod... :)
[02:49] <Trae> I try out KDE like once every month or two... and come crawling back to GNOME
[02:50] <jadacyrus> Okay I just installed Xubuntu over normal Ubuntu, and now im getting a Grub Error 15.
[02:50] <jvai> lol
[02:50] <Trae> I've been doing that for about 6 years now
[02:50] <NthDegree> other way round for me
[02:50] <Trae> every since I left KDE for good
[02:50] <PhilH> bnovc, mplayer is horrible from a UI point of view though, i certainly wouldn't force someone to use it if totem were an option
[02:50] <Trae> NthDegree, hehe
[02:50] <jvai> i only like kde in knppix.. they do it right
[02:50] <Trae> NthDegree, yeah, they both have good points and bad points.
[02:50] <bnovc> PhilH: why do you think so?
[02:50] <Trae> NthDegree, both suck  *sigh*
[02:50] <Trae> NthDegree, but are better than anything else
[02:51] <bnovc> i'm not really familiar with totem at all so maybe ill fix her totem later and set that up
[02:51] <hav0k> hey, does anyone know anything about the flashplugin?  cause im not getting any sound
[02:51] <Trae> triple my money back if I don't 100% like KDE or GNOME!
[02:51] <jrib> !flash > hav0k
[02:51] <Trae> that goes for anyone here
[02:51] <Trae> heh
[02:51] <Trae> jrib, oooh, new bot features?
[02:51] <bnovc> oh yea, flash plugin was another thing the gf was bitching about
[02:51] <coriander> I'm trying to compile Wireshark (packet sniffer) on Dapper and it needs gtk+.  Is there a package for gtk+ that I can install thru synaptic or should I follow the instructions for manual installation on gtk.org?
[02:51] <jrib> Trae: new bot
[02:51] <NthDegree> GNOME is too unintegrated for me, and KDE needs to make emselves faster so they can rid themselves of the anti-KDE propaganda people talk out of their arse
[02:51] <PhilH> bnovc, totem is just a well designed player for video and a lesser extend music, otherwise stick with rythmbox, banshee or XMMS
[02:51] <Trae> jrib, sweet
[02:52] <azureal> lo; i compiled version 2.12.3 of glib from source, before realizing that a lot of things depend on my [already installed]  glib 2.10.3  -- should i (and if so, how) uninstall the one i just compiled?
[02:52] <Trae> NthDegree, #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:52] <azureal> is it sudo make uninstall?
[02:54] <Milktea> NthDegree,
[02:54] <knapper> if cuking love ou guys
[02:54] <theBishop> what do you guys use to keep your ipod updated?
[02:54] <Milktea> frostwire
[02:54] <Milktea> can't find my JRE
[02:54] <NthDegree> you need Sun JRE
[02:54] <Milktea> I have it
[02:54] <theBishop> rhythmbox can play songs, but doesn't seem to copy TO the ipod
[02:54] <terlmann> help?
[02:54] <Milktea> I have 1.5.x
[02:54] <NthDegree> off the Sun website, latest one?
[02:54] <NthDegree> that's old
[02:54] <NthDegree> Sun Java is 5.0
[02:54] <Milktea> it says 1.4 or newer on the frostwire
[02:55] <Luakagon> Can someone please assist me with my synaptic?  it's not getting the right repositories
[02:55] <NthDegree> Milktea: get proper Sun Java off their site
[02:55] <hav0k> theBishop, i use gtkpod
[02:55] <Milktea> ok
[02:55] <micr0jackson> is there any way to install Ubuntu from a different distros command line?
[02:55] <RobNyc|Ubuntu> Any ASUS users here using Vista RC1?
[02:55] <jrib> Luakagon: put your /etc/apt/sources.list on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give us a link to your post
[02:55] <hav0k> theBishop, yeah, rhythmbox cant transfter stuff yet
[02:55] <Ginks> does Ubuntu support the Netgear WG111v2 wireless usb adapter?
[02:55] <Milktea> What do I download?
[02:55] <theBishop> i see Banshee can do it
[02:55] <jrib> Luakagon: or if you want to just recreate a new one, checkout the link ubotu is about to send you:
[02:56] <jrib> !easysource > Luakagon
[02:56] <theBishop> its pretty unbelievable that rhythmbox doesn't have this obvious feature
[02:56] <hav0k> theBishop, yeah, i think banshee can, but rhythmbox will eventually.  it does suck that they left that off
[02:56] <bobbobowitz> Can anyone help me setup AIGLX?  I followed this thread http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133772 and there weren't any problems, except the line "sudo cp /usr/lib/libdrm.so.1 /usr/lib/libdrm.so.2" which said so.1 didn't exist.  Now things open slowly, for example, the login screen loads block by block (but it only takes a second still)
[02:56] <Milktea> NthDegree, which download should I download
[02:57] <NthDegree> 1 second
[02:57] <jvai> how do i back up my config? do i go to *computer-home-then copy home? or do i go to my home dir & copy all files from it?
[02:57] <NthDegree> http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
[02:57] <NthDegree> Milktea: Linux
[02:58] <Milktea> thanks
[02:58] <cappicard> this is irritating. every time I reboot into ubuntu (previously in windows), I keep having to plug in my speakers into the rear output jack (was the front output jack) of my audigy 2 value.
[02:58] <NthDegree> if you have x86_64 you want Linux x64 aswell
[02:59] <hav0k> is 1.4.2-02 the latest java?
[02:59] <Milktea> NthDegree, i looked a little more into it
[02:59] <Milktea> and
[02:59] <Milktea> i only needed to do a sudo update-alternatives --config java
[02:59] <jvai> how do i back up my config? do i go to *computer-home-then copy home? or do i go to my home dir & copy all files from it?
[02:59] <Milktea> and select another alternative
[02:59] <terlmann> i have a major ubuntu ptoblem! i tried to run msudo nautilus as user terlmann but the thing ran as "hal" and now my screen is whacked out,the bottom menu are 3 inches from the bottom of the screen,and the mouse pointer has to locate 1 inch BELOW the dialog i wanna click... has anyone got a solution?
[02:59] <NthDegree> heh that's old stuff usually
[03:00] <NthDegree> very insecure
[03:00] <NthDegree> since it isn't open source
[03:00] <terlmann> help!
[03:00] <NthDegree> on closed source Java versions you want the latest gear to be secure
[03:00] <micr0jackson> is there a way to install Ubuntu from a different distros command line?  (my cd burner is busted) ?
[03:00] <NthDegree> terlmann, restart the PC
[03:00] <Intangir> the most annoying thing about linux ???? The STUPID SLOW KEYS shit.. how do i turn off this crap
[03:01] <NthDegree> Intangir: same feature as Windows

[03:01] <Intangir> the most annoying crap ever..
[03:01] <NthDegree> Intangir, you are slow on the keyboard so it thinks you are disabled XD
[03:01] <Intangir> shouldnt it just ask once and then shut up? i pressed help and there is nothing in help about turning it off forever
[03:02] <Intangir> i gotta hold shift to add to my selection
[03:02] <Intangir> so i hold shift for more than 8 seconds
[03:02] <Intangir> i NEED to be able to do that

[03:02] <micr0jackson> anyone? install ubuntu from different distros shell?
[03:02] <Intangir> does anyone know how to turn it off?
[03:02] <terlmann> Nthdegree I did that.
[03:03] <bobbobowitz> micr0jackson, I saw a way to install it over the network
[03:03] <jrib> Intangir: system > preferences > keyboard > accessibility > filters, gives me an option for it but it is grayed out on my system
[03:03] <azureal> Intangir, which desktop?
[03:03] <terlmann> help?
[03:03] <bobbobowitz> but that required a previous linux install as the server
[03:03] <NthDegree> terlmann, it's gksudo for graphical apps there is a warning about using sudo for the wrong things
[03:04] <Mangix> !airport

[03:04] <Mangix> anyone know of any airport drivers for Ubuntu?
[03:04] <terlmann> yea... thanks... just a noob ... NOW how do I fix it?
[03:04] <CrippsFX> Mangix, loking for info on the airport wireless card? (broadcom bcm43xx)
[03:04] <cafuego> CrippsFX: Check the wiki.
[03:04] <djancak> why is apache not set up to parse php by default on dapper drake :(
[03:04] <cafuego> !bcm43xx
[03:04] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:05] <CrippsFX> Mangix, search google for "bcm43xx +ubuntu" it'll come up with the wiki
[03:05] <NthDegree> terlmann, easy just close down X server, login to the text console, do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:05] <Mangix> ty
[03:05] <chr1s_> has anyone experienced there sound volume mysteriously fluctuating?
[03:05] <Trae> anyone here know how to change the icon that is used in "Main Menu" on the panel.  {Not Menu Bar}
[03:05] <CrippsFX> cafuego, no. I'm speaking english. Had I been looking for info, I would have said "I'm looking for info" ... with no '?'
[03:05] <pianoboy3333> Is there a way to change the character banner uses
[03:06] <cafuego> CrippsFX: Waar heb je het over?

[03:06] <azureal> ?cafuego  crei que hablaras espanol
[03:06] <CrippsFX> Matrikz, k3b
[03:07] <cafuego> azureal: Das versteh ich nicht.

[03:07] <CrippsFX> cafuego, was I right in thinking dutch?
[03:07] <cafuego> CrippsFX: Yup, spot on :-)
[03:07] <CrippsFX> cafuego, was my literal translation spot on too? ;)
[03:08] <cafuego> CrippsFX: not quite, the 'had' should be 'it'
[03:08] <Matrikz> ty CrippsFX
[03:08] <CrippsFX> ahh.
[03:08] <cafuego> 'where have you it over'
[03:08] <CrippsFX> Matrikz, np.
[03:08] <CrippsFX> cafuego, k. now what's the idiomatic translation? :P
[03:08] <azureal> lol, what doest that mean
[03:08] <cafuego> CrippsFX: "what are you on about?" ;-)
[03:08] <pianoboy3333> Is there a way to change the character banner uses
[03:09] <CrippsFX> cafuego, ahh.
[03:09] <cafuego> they're too small, maybe use 4 or 5 ;-)
[03:09] <CrippsFX> cafuego, just ranting about how you misunderstood what I said when I mentioned broadcom :P
[03:09] <CrippsFX> lol.
[03:09] <hav0k> is there a way to change the sound output for flash?
[03:10] <stealth> Can someone help me with something?, im kinda new to Ubuntu
[03:10] <cafuego> CrippsFX: yeah, hiding ones reply behind a foreign language is nice in such cases, but then having to explain it kind of spoils the effect <heh>
[03:10] <CrippsFX> I'm going to be eating a lot of rice next semester ...
[03:10] <denver> stealth, i'm sure they can if you will just state what you need help with
[03:10] <jrib> stealth: maybe, just ask the channel your question and see
[03:11] <stealth> Err, i dont get how to install things, What do i do, i tried reading the instructions, but i only get lost.
[03:11] <CrippsFX> cafuego, ah, yes. darn people who are *just* too smart ... but not diverse enough to know the foreign language ;)
[03:11] <CrippsFX> stealth, what are you trying to install?
[03:11] <cynical> stealth: yes what software?
[03:11] <stealth> umm, let me check the folder
[03:11] <stealth> Gaim Xfire Addon
[03:11] <CrippsFX> if you downloaded stuff to install, you've already missed the point.
[03:12] <whiter> is there an ubuntu binary deb for rhythmbox 0.95 ?
[03:13] <CrippsFX> stealth, what is the extension on the file you are using to install?
[03:13] <stealth> .tar.gz
[03:13] <cynical> stealth: It says in the install file that you should first do ./configure --with-gaim=/PATH/TO/GAIM, then make, and finally make install
[03:13] <cynical> stealth: do you know how to use the terminal?
[03:13] <CrippsFX> stealth, yeah ... they confused me at first too ...
[03:13] <stealth> nope
[03:13] <OofCZer0> question for anyone who can help, ive just installed ubuntu, and when i restarted after i took the cd out it didnt give me the option to choose windows or ubuntu
[03:14] <OofCZer0> any suggestions
[03:14] <OofCZer0> ???
[03:14] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, choose ubuntu.
[03:14] <jrib> cynical: remember build-essential and deps too
[03:14] <OofCZer0> CrippsFX it doesnt give me the option
[03:14] <cynical> stealth: yes jrib has a point, you may need some dependencies
[03:14] <OofCZer0> CrippsFX it just boots windows
[03:14] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, oh, sorry, I missed the "doesn't" there.
[03:14] <cynical> stealth: open up a terminal (applications > accessories)
[03:14] <stealth> ok
[03:15] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, stick in the ubuntu cd, and boot it up in rescue mode.
[03:15] <cynical> stealth: then type "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[03:15] <cynical> stealth: we can find the other dependencies while compiling
[03:15] <OofCZer0> CrippsFX anything after that or just do that then restart and take the cd out?
[03:16] <cynical> stealth: after thats done change to the folder of the plugin you just extracted using "cd Desktop/foldername"
[03:16] <codecaine> how can I made my whole desktop transparent?
[03:16] <jrib> stealth: and so you aren't scared away from ubuntu, you usually install things from online repositories using applications > add/remove or system > administration > synaptic.  That's the best way to install things.  But it happens that your particular program hasn't been packaged for ubuntu yet
[03:16] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, yep ... you're going to need to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst  ... and then you're going to need to make sure grub installed to your mbr
[03:17] <stealth> hmmm, im getting "Command not found"
[03:17] <cynical> stealth: what are you typing?
[03:17] <stealth> sude apt-get install build-essential
[03:17] <OofCZer0> CrippsFX so u know i have never used ubuntu or any type of linux before this so i dont really know what your talking about, if you coudl explain that in a little more detail it would be much appreciated
[03:17] <cynical> stealth: its "sudo"
[03:18] <stealth> ahh thanks
[03:18] <stealth> ok put in my password
[03:18] <cynical> stealth: ok, now change to the directory of the folder you just extracted
[03:18] <cynical> stealth: cd Desktop/foldername
[03:18] <jasz> hello all
[03:18] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, when you boot up, you will need to run "nano /boot/grub/menu.lst" and add an entry for ubuntu in there ... just a moment and I'll find you a grub how to
[03:19] <jasz> i'm trying to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse but it requires liblame0 ... which is not installable... i do have the universe and multiverse repositories enabled.. so I dont know where to go from here.. any ideas?
[03:19] <OofCZer0> CrippsFX thanks
[03:19] <stealth> ok, lost me
[03:20] <stealth> So i change the folder i had it in?
[03:20] <stealth> or i move it
[03:20] <iqon> is it possible to have a partitioned loop device?
[03:20] <cynical> CrippsFX: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=10#grub
[03:20] <cynical> stealth: no no, once you are in the terminal, you are in your home folder
[03:20] <stealth> o
[03:20] <iceman24k> anyone have any idea why i cannot reconfigure xserver-xorg.
[03:20] <cynical> stealth: if you type the command "ls" you will see the documents in your home folder
[03:21] <cynical> stealth: you need to move to the folder you just extracted to, which I'm assuming is on your desktop somewhere
[03:21] <CrippsFX> cynical, no, that one's gentoo-specific. I found a generic one already.
[03:21] <lostinc> Is there any software that allows the editing of MOV files?
[03:21] <iceman24k> i have done sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and none of my changes take effect
[03:21] <jasz> ~liblame0
[03:21] <cynical> CrippsFX: lol, everything besides emerge is quite helpful
[03:21] <jrib> jasz: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list and give us a link please

[03:22] <bon> a total nebie question for you how do i burn an avi file to dvd so it plays in a dvd player
[03:22] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Multiboot-with-GRUB.html   ... or you can check out the link cynical posted ... another option is to check out the "Linux Documentation Project"
[03:22] <iceman24k> !nvidia
[03:22] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:22] <cynical> stealth: ok good, now that you are in the directory, type ./configure --with-gaim=/usr/bin/gaim
[03:23] <cynical> stealth: and let me know what error messages come up (most likely there will be a few)
[03:23] <CrippsFX> cynical, ahh ... I see ... I just read a little further. gentoo docs are good because they explain just about every freaking thing there is to the process.
[03:23] <tyler_d> anyone know if I would be able to install all of the macromedia plugins?
[03:23] <cynical> CrippsFX: yes exactly. Thats where I first learned how grub interpreted hard drives
[03:23] <Ginks> anyone using photoshop cs or cs 2 with ubuntu and wine?
[03:23] <jasz> pastebin must have a lot of traffic

[03:24] <jasz> flash 9 was tried today for linux....
[03:24] <cynical> CrippsFX: I'm on a windows box atm so its hard for me to help this person :\
[03:24] <CrippsFX> cynical, probably in /usr/local/share somewhere
[03:24] <jasz> (the player)
[03:24] <tyler_d> jrib: thanks mang
[03:24] <bon> i got flash nine wotrking with simple tutorial

[03:25] <OofCZer0> CrippsFX: i dont get what im supposed to do, im at the link, i dont get what im supposed to do, sorry :-\
[03:25] <iceman24k> Anyone know why KDE would llimit me to 1024x764 resolution, even though xorg shows higher
[03:25] <cynical> stealth: one second, I cant remember where gaim is installed by default
[03:25] <jrib> tyler_d: you /can/ get shockwave and flash9 if you run firefox in wine...
[03:25] <stealth> ok

[03:26] <bon> a total nebie question for you how do i burn an avi file to dvd so it plays in a dvd player
[03:26] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, sorry ... I'm tied up right now ... if you keep re-reading it, it'll eventually make sense.
[03:27] <CrippsFX> cynical, what's the flag for "ls" that shows where a symlink points to?
[03:27] <cynical> CrippsFX: either -s or -l I think
[03:27] <CrippsFX> cynical, kk.
[03:28] <jasz> any other pasting website? pastebin is having issues...
[03:28] <cynical> stealth: I have an idea

[03:28] <cynical> stealth: first exit the folder by typing 'cd ..'
[03:28] <Matrikz> any burning programs other than k3b?
[03:29] <cynical> Martikz: brasero / gnomebaker are good alternatives

[03:29] <cynical> stealth: now type 'sudo mv foldername /usr/lib/gaim/'
[03:29] <jrib> mabus: your home directory is world readable by default
[03:30] <dk06> i got it
[03:30] <jasz> fuck...
[03:30] <jasz> i didnt mean to do that :(
[03:30] <mabus> jrib: Well I don't want mine to be, and it's not.
[03:30] <Matrikz> ty
[03:30] <baconbacon> tut tut
[03:30] <iceman24k> how do I reset the GDM display manager to load and not kdm ?
[03:30] <baconbacon> !language
[03:30] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:30] <stealth> what folder?
[03:30] <iceman24k> !gdm
[03:30] <cynical> stealth: the folder with the plugin inside it
[03:30] <ubotu> gdm: GNOME Display Manager. In component main, is optional. Version 2.14.10-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 1681 kB, installed size 11588 kB
[03:30] <jasz> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23488    << here it is... sorry about the flood :(
[03:30] <mabus> jrib: Is the tradition to make a /home/pub or something?
[03:30] <cynical> stealth: the one you just exited
[03:30] <thiagoarrais> i am trying to install the development snapshot on my second hard drive (hdb), but it won't let me...
[03:30] <CrippsFX> OofCZer0, that would be a start ... keeping in mind partition scheme and such. i.e. hd(0,0) is the first partition on the first HD, hd(1,0) is the first partition on the second hd, hd(1,1) is the second partition on the second HD, etc, etc ....
[03:31] <thiagoarrais> does anyone have any idea?
[03:31] <Matrikz> hmm apt-get is a bit slow tonight
[03:31] <bon> does anyone know how to rip avi files to dvd file e.g. audio_ts video_ts
[03:31] <CrippsFX> cynical, heh ... I'm just gonna run find /usr/ gaim ;)
[03:31] <baconbacon> mabus, more like /var/pub on servers
[03:31] <iceman24k> whats commandline to reconfigure the KDM / GDM display manager ?
[03:31] <cynical> CrippsFX: lol good idea
[03:31] <mabus> baconbacon: thanks
[03:31] <Wiseguy> hey guys, whats the trick to installing flash on firefox?
[03:31] <mabus> !flash
[03:31] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[03:32] <cynical> stealth: after that type ./configure
[03:32] <jrib> jasz: you don't have dapper multiverse, only dapper-backports multiverse.  Append the word " multiverse" to the four lines that have "universe" in them but no "multiverse"
[03:32] <stealth> yea, im getting noware, it cant ifnd the folder
[03:32] <stealth> find*
[03:32] <nozorro> iceman24k: just uninstall kdm and gdm should come up automatically after that
[03:32] <thiagoarrais> wiseguy, no tricks. i just install it from the adobe installer. what are you trying to do?
[03:32] <cynical> stealth: oops
[03:32] <cynical> stealth: the folder on your desktop?
[03:32] <cynical> stealth: it should now be in libs
[03:32] <baconbacon> mabus: just saying, /var is usually the place you put stuff which can grow uncontrollably big, like log files, cache or public writable dirs.
[03:32] <CrippsFX> cynical, while that's chugging away, I'm going out for a smoke. I'll be a few mins.
[03:32] <baconbacon> doh, hes gone
[03:33] <cynical> CrippsFX: np
[03:33] <Wiseguy> thiagoarrais, i was trying to isntall through the firefox browser..
[03:33] <Wiseguy> it hasnt work on 3 of my comps
[03:33] <stealth> still cant find it
[03:33] <baconbacon> it usually works on 32 bits ubuntu
[03:33] <cynical> stealth: the folder that was on your desktop? are you saying it disappeared?
[03:33] <Wiseguy> i wonder if its because i might not have the w32 codecs installed
[03:34] <stealth> no, i put it in home
[03:34] <thiagoarrais> wiseguy: hmmm..  that never worked for me
[03:34] <stealth> extracted it in home
[03:34] <cynical> stealth: oh ok
[03:34] <jasz> jrib ... damn... i didnt see those :(
[03:34] <thiagoarrais> so i went to adobe.com and downloaded the linux version from there
[03:34] <baconbacon> Wiseguy, installing flash with firefox installer always worked for me. you can use the package flash-plugin-nonfree too i guess
[03:34] <thiagoarrais> i guess the firefox installer points to the manual installation page when it cant get it done automatically
[03:35] <jadacyrus> Okay I just installed Xubuntu over normal Ubuntu, and now im getting a Grub Error 15.
[03:35] <thiagoarrais> baconbacon: hmmm, good to know
[03:35] <bon> wiseguy: you need to use wine but its a bit slower - some people are re laaaseing a flash nine or something for linux later this yeaar i think?
[03:35] <baconbacon> !flashplugin-nonfree
[03:35] <ubotu> flashplugin-nonfree: Macromedia Flash Player plugin installer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 7.0.63.3ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 16 kB, installed size 136 kB (Only available for i386)
[03:36] <thiagoarrais> i am trying to install the development snapshot on my second hard drive (hdb), but it won't let me...
[03:36] <thiagoarrais> the installer only shows hda...
[03:36] <dk06> phil
[03:36] <dk06> i need some serious help
[03:36] <bnovc> not joking help?
[03:36] <azureal> how do i add the location of the file glib-2.0.pc to the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH?
[03:37] <justin420> hi all. anybody help with permission denied errors while trying to use /etc/fstab? im using uid=<insert linux users name here> guid=users; and credentials=<path to credentials file>
[03:37] <bnovc> azureal: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH='/path/toglib/' ?
[03:37] <bon> wiseguy: it tells you how to install ie here and flash nine http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[03:37] <azureal> bnovc, is that a permanent change?
[03:37] <bnovc> azureal: no
[03:37] <bnovc> azureal: until your shell restarts
[03:37] <azureal> should i make it permanent if it's a compiling error?
[03:38] <bnovc> probably, i dont know about the requiremenst though
[03:38] <bnovc> it may just need it for linking
[03:38] <nozorro> justin420: you need to use the numbers as id, as given in /etc/passwd, /etc/group
[03:38] <bnovc> you can put it in ~/.bashrc if you're using bash
[03:39] <justin420> nozorro: so use instead of username user their user number?
[03:39] <Frederick> folks why doesnt ubuntu features the dgb info for image magick?
[03:39] <nozorro> justin420: for fstab, yes. see 'man mount'
[03:39] <thiagoarrais> any ideas for my problem with the installer?
[03:39] <justin420> nozorro: trying to mount remote share; maxtor shared storage drive. i also saw man mount.cifs
[03:40] <bryanl> is there a way to find out what memory type you have without opening the case?
[03:40] <bryanl> or rebooting?
[03:40] <fmasi> Helo i like to know if its posible to restore a EXT3 tump into a XFS file system
[03:40] <nozorro> justin420: what kind of server are the shares on?
[03:40] <bnovc> bryanl: might be able to find it in `dmesg`
[03:40] <bon> how hard is it to burn an avi file to dvd so it plays in an dvd player
[03:40] <dk06> philh
[03:40] <azureal> bnovc, oh, should it be the path to the file or the directory holding the file?
[03:40] <dk06> please replay
[03:40] <justin420> nozorro: thanks for the input, will try; but have this feeling it wont help. it says it running samba 3.22 i think
[03:41] <bon> what programs do i need
[03:41] <bnovc> bon: depends if your dvd player plays it, otherwise it wont
[03:41] <bnovc> azureal: probably directory
[03:41] <dk06> my computer is really messed up after thyat xrestart
[03:41] <bnovc> bon: most dvd players wont play it
[03:41] <dk06> it keeps freezing
[03:41] <nozorro> justin420: ah samba, that's different
[03:41] <dk06> well the mouse moves
[03:41] <maple1> DVDs are nonfree and evil\
[03:41] <dk06> but i cant do anything
[03:41] <dk06> even the ctrl alt fn functions dont do anything
[03:41] <bon> whould be good if i could have dvd menus and that
[03:41] <bnovc> bon: that wont happen from an avi
[03:42] <bnovc> you'll need to have a horrible conversion process first anyway
[03:42] <justin420> nozorro: on windows xp machine it says the partition is ntfs but i can mount it just fine using root; i would like to make it so i can save/delete/exec on the remote shares
[03:42] <bnovc> better off plugging your computer to the tv or getting it in a different format
[03:42] <bon> lol great
[03:42] <lupine_85> dvd++
[03:42] <bnovc> dvd--
[03:42] <dk06> philh
[03:42] <lupine_85> blu-ray+++
[03:42] <dk06> please
[03:42] <bnovc> lupine_85: bigger haddrives and direct connections to tvs++
[03:42] <nozorro> justin420: sorry, i'm not familiar with samba
[03:42] <bon> i was going to take the movie around to mt girls house tomorrow
[03:43] <bnovc> bon: bring a laptop then
[03:43] <lupine_85> bnovc: on-demand TV maybe
[03:43] <bnovc> i use my laptop and a cable for s-video in
[03:43] <lupine_85> on-demand HDTV, probably
[03:43] <dk06> come on man
[03:43] <bon> mmmhh
[03:43] <justin420> nozorro:no problem. at least you were nice enough to try and help me; unlike others :)
[03:43] <lupine_85> but I can't remember the last time *any* TV channel played some of my favourite films
[03:43] <azureal> bnovc, weird... both /usr/local/lib/glib-2.0 and /usr/local/share/glib-2.0 contain empty directories
[03:43] <bon> nothings ever easy
[03:44] <Wiseguy> do you guys know of any sites i can test the flash out on?
[03:44] <nozorro> Wiseguy: bloomberg.com
[03:44] <thiagoarrais> i am trying to install the development snapshot on my second hard drive (hdb), but it won't let me...
[03:44] <PhilH> dk06
[03:45] <bon> yeah but my laptopp has kubuntu on it as well so i would have to figure oue=t how to setup split screaan
[03:45] <jrib> Wiseguy: badgerbadgerbadger.com
[03:45] <bon> aaaaaaaaaaaah
[03:45] <PhilH> dk06, join #sfd-flyingmonkeys
[03:45] <bnovc> bon why would you need split screen to play the movie
[03:45] <bnovc> bon: just get something to do s-video out and plug it into her tv
[03:46] <bnovc> it will scale down the resolution a LOT but it works
[03:46] <bon> plug the laptop into the tv
[03:46] <bnovc> and it looks like normal 640x480 tv
[03:46] <bnovc> which is how i watch all my movies
[03:47] <thiagoarrais> any installation wiz here? i've got issues with installing on the second hd
[03:47] <leeyee> Hello, I need to do a presentation about Linux tomorrow morning, and till now I still have no idea about projector connection under Dapper. Any idea?
[03:47] <thiagoarrais> or better yet, edgy eft has...
[03:47] <tonyyarusso> I don't get any sound with YouTube videos (right now I'm trying the ones at ubuntuvideo.com).  What do I have to do for that?
[03:47] <bnovc> leeyee: probably wont work :P
[03:47] <bon> i will try it but if it doesnt work i will be back to EAT YOUR BABY
[03:47] <bnovc> tonyyarusso: might be because of lack of flash8 support...not sure
[03:47] <lupine_85> thiagoarrais: you're trying to install edgy?
[03:47] <leeyee> bnovc, really? I still remeber that it worked fine on SuSE 10.0
[03:48] <bnovc> bon: i'd have to get your gf pregnant before you eat it
[03:48] <PhilH> leeyee, does it connect to the vga out in the same way a monitor does?
[03:48] <thiagoarrais> yup, this mornings snapshot
[03:48] <bon> lol
[03:48] <bnovc> leeyee: newest flash player doesnt work in linux
[03:48] <lupine_85> and the error is...
[03:48] <bnovc> windows and osx only
[03:48] <lupine_85> youtube is flash 7
[03:48] <lupine_85> firefox is a git
[03:48] <thiagoarrais> i want to install it on my second harddrive
[03:48] <mortal5> has anyone in here succeded in using ffmpeg under ubuntu?
[03:48] <thiagoarrais> but the partitioner only sees hda
[03:48] <bnovc> lupine_85: ah, yea, didnt know what it used
[03:49] <leeyee> PhilH, My laptop has a s-video output, and the graphic chip is ATI9000
[03:49] <bryanl> ok... striping across multiple disks is faster than one disk even if they are on the same controller?  i should i pick up a second sata controller?
[03:49] <lupine_85> firefox uses oss by default... so running it under aoss would work fine
[03:49] <PhilH> leeyee, does the projector use s-video, does your s-video out work?
[03:49] <junkphreak> anyone ever used the ghost for linux / g4l
[03:49] <lupine_85> thiagoarrais: should teh other drive be hdb? or sd?? ?
[03:50] <thiagoarrais> hdb
[03:50] <lupine_85> can you partition it manually?
[03:50] <thiagoarrais> hmmm...
[03:50] <PhilH> thiagoarrais, so fdisk -l /dev/hdb returns what?
[03:50] <thiagoarrais> i dont really know how to do that
[03:50] <lupine_85> if you're in the alternative CD, there's a VT on alt+f2
[03:51] <lupine_85> start by doing what PhilH said
[03:51] <bon> bnovc, thanks for you pratical knowage, see you tomorrow ;)
[03:51] <PhilH> the -l is a lowercase L
[03:51] <bnovc> bon: see ya
[03:51] <bnovc> good luck
[03:51] <leeyee> PhilH, to be honest, I don't have a projector at hand, but it worked before on SuSE10.0
[03:51] <Wiseguy> ok i got the flash working, but for some reason windows media files dont work either... mpeg or wmv
[03:51] <thiagoarrais> phil: $ fdisk -l /dev/hdb => Cannot open /dev/hdb
[03:52] <lupine_85> do you have /dev/hdb?
[03:52] <PhilH> use sudo infront of it
[03:52] <lupine_85> ls /dev/hdb
[03:52] <thiagoarrais> i am running the live one right now
[03:52] <leeyee> PhilH, So I'm planning to borrow a CRT monitor first, and try it out
[03:52] <lupine_85> ah, live CD not alt install CD
[03:52] <PhilH> thiagoarrais, sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb
[03:52] <thiagoarrais> last night i tried the al cd, but i think it was broken. cause it kept complaining about kernel modules
[03:53] <PhilH> leeyee, so the projector just uses a vga connector?
[03:53] <lupine_85> yes, the alt is well broken at the moment
[03:53] <thiagoarrais> phil: will send you the result in private, ok?
[03:53] <PhilH> thaigoarrais, sure, if it doesn't work then join #sfd-flyingmonkeys
[03:53] <leeyee> PhilH, sorry I have no idea about that, what is the vga connector?
[03:54] <knapper> Anyone know of a way to burn m4a files?
[03:54] <dk06> phil
[03:54] <dk06> are u there
[03:54] <PhilKC> Yes.
[03:54] <dk06> yay
[03:54] <knapper> or convert m4a files
[03:54] <PhilH> 15pin d connector on the back of your machine
[03:54] <dk06> no
[03:54] <PhilH> dk06, yes
[03:54] <dk06> im lookin for philh
[03:54] <dk06> oh great
[03:54] <PhilH> dk06, what went wrong?
[03:54] <dk06> i encounterd huge problems
[03:54] <firefly2442> my pchdtv 3000 TV tuner card worked fine in i386 Ubuntu, but the AMD64 bit version doesn't seem to work, any thoughts?
[03:54] <tonyyarusso> Can anyone tell me their impressions of Gnu Cash vs. Grisbi?
[03:54] <dk06> can we go back to our private room
[03:54] <dk06> whats it called
[03:54] <Fingertips> hey
[03:55] <leeyee> PhilH, I remeber that I just connectted the s-plug with s-video output of my lappy, then it worked, on SuSE of course
[03:55] <heymon> hey all
[03:55] <dk06> whats that private room called
[03:55] <dk06> where we were chatting
[03:55] <PhilH> dk06, #sfd-flyingmonkeys
[03:55] <Fingertips> could anybody here help me with some Dapper Drake installation problems regarding my x server using an x800 pro
[03:55] <dk06> k
[03:55] <thiagoarrais> phil and lupine: i would run fdisk manually, but i dont think the installer would work normally with that...
[03:56] <PhilH> thiagoarrais, i didn't get the output, private messages aren't working for me at the moment
[03:56] <lupine_85> thiagoarrais: it might be easier to install dapper then manually upgrade
[03:56] <thiagoarrais> oh, sorry
[03:56] <Fingertips> could anybody here help me with some Dapper Drake installation problems regarding my x server failing to work
[03:56] <lupine_85> I've done an edgy install from scratch and an edgy upgrade; the latter was definitely easier
[03:57] <nadia007> thiagoarrais, is the dapper universe repository down due to edgy coming out?
[03:57] <Flannel> nadia007: no
[03:57] <Tonren> How do I mount FAT16 as a writable FS?
[03:57] <thiagoarrais> lupine: i didnt have a very good experience on doing that from breezy to dapper...
[03:57] <Fingertips> could anybody here help me with some Dapper Drake installation problems regarding my x server failing to work
[03:58] <PhilH> thiagoarrais, ok, so what is the problem you're having exactly?
[03:58] <thiagoarrais> the installer partitioner (from the live cd) doesn't see hdb
[03:58] <nadia007> Flannel, I can't seem to update my indexes when I run sudo apt-get update on my server.  All repositories work except for the Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (binary)
[03:58] <OofCZer0> this is a real stupid question im sure but how to you get the console type box up that you type commands and stuff in??
[03:58] <thiagoarrais> it only lists hda
[03:58] <tonyyarusso> OofCZer0: Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[03:58] <thiagoarrais> on the drop down menu, you know
[03:59] <OofCZer0> tonyyarusso thank you
[03:59] <Fingertips> could anybody here help me with some Dapper Drake installation problems regarding my x server failing to work
[03:59] <Flannel> nadia007: er, which other repositories?
[04:00] <Tonren> How do I mount FAT16 as a writable FS?  Anyone?
[04:00] <fluvvell> Fingertips  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:00] <fluvvell> as sudo
[04:00] <Fingertips> fluvvell ive followed all those steps, but it hasnt been installed yet so it cant save the changes anywhere

[04:01] <Kirsch> hey guys, i'm being really agrovated with this already, i'm trying to install php5 w/ jpeg support but it doesn't seem to want to go, i know i have gd (intalled from repo), i know i have libjpeg (its in /usr/lib/libjpeg62.so, also installed from repo) but i can't compile php w/ jpeg support... can anyone enlighten me?
[04:01] <nadia007> Flannel, I can update all supported repositories... it's the community maintained that err out on me.
[04:01] <Kirsch> pls...

[04:01] <Fingertips> fluvvell https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI i followed all those steps including the final one of reboot and then it just destroys all the work ive done
[04:01] <PhilH> leeyee, i've no idea how well ATI s-video works under ubuntu, sorry
[04:01] <fluvvell> Fingertips: sorry, what hasn't been installed?

[04:02] <Fingertips> fluvvell thats the problem
[04:02] <nozorro> nadia007: try a different mirror
[04:02] <Fingertips> fluvvell i cant install because the x server crashes
[04:03] <fluvvell> Fingertips, do a basic install then go in to get your ati card working later.
[04:03] <fluvvell> dont try to do it all at once
[04:03] <Fingertips> fluvvell using the alternate thing?
[04:03] <nadia007> nozorro, meaning try diff country code?
[04:03] <Fingertips> fluvvell alternate disk?
[04:03] <fluvvell> Fingertips, that may be your only option.  Have you considered whether your install disk or hardware may be flakey?
[04:04] <Fingertips> fluvvell well,,, i have no idea how to manually in stall via consol
[04:04] <Fingertips> fluvvell neither
[04:04] <Fingertips> fluvvell i checksum'd it like 5 times
[04:04] <nozorro> nadia007: yeah, or look for a mirror using a browser (if you can)
[04:04] <fluvvell> Fingertips: you've actually tested the media after burning?
[04:04] <thiagoarrais> think i am gonna try to update from dapper...

[04:05] <Fingertips> fluvvell using the Desktop disk
[04:05] <thiagoarrais> any other ideas before i give up?

[04:07] <orbin> nwbreneman: metacity iirc
[04:07] <thiagoarrais> nwbreneman: i think that would be metacity
[04:07] <fluvvell> Fingertips: probably the alternative install disk, in the old days of breezy it was a text based install

[04:08] <thiagoarrais> how can i have the live installer skip thing?
[04:09] <orbin> skip thing?
[04:09] <thiagoarrais> oops
[04:09] <thiagoarrais> skip things. skip some steps
[04:09] <thiagoarrais> i am trying to skip the partitioner...
[04:10] <lupine_85> thiagoarrais: does the file /dev/hdb exist ?
[04:10] <iceman24k> Dang it i'll reinstall again, wonder why i could not enable resolution abouve 1024x768 ?
[04:10] <thiagoarrais> yup
[04:10] <thiagoarrais> it exists and the hd is partioned already
[04:11] <thiagoarrais> i can send you the fdisk output, if that would help....
[04:11] <lupine_85> no really, it just seems to be an installer bug :(
[04:11] <tech13> any howto for rescuing the system after a bad kernel update?
[04:11] <nozorro> thiagoarrais: if you're installing edgy eft, why not discuss this on #ubuntu+1
[04:11] <Fingertips> fluvvell how do i install dapper using the Desktop disk in console w/o x
[04:11] <SillyZ> evening
[04:11] <lupine_85> you could try the hardware solution - switching the drives around ;)
[04:11] <thiagoarrais> should i file that?

[04:11] <S3RV0> Hi guys, having problem with ubuntu live cd (dapper drake, i386) it keeps freezing at a random time whenever I use it, think it may be down to ACPI since my computer requires an ESD reset to even POST after, any Ideas on how to alter the kernel load so theres no ACPI?
[04:11] <KanRiNiN> Hey guys, I compiled xvid from CVS using CFLAGS, and did a symbolic link...but how can I see if totem, for example, is using my compiled version or the libxvidcore4 that was installed through synaptic??
[04:11] <nozorro> thiagoarrais: go for it :-)
[04:12] <KanRiNiN> Thanks in advance
[04:12] <lupine_85> tech13: just load the previous kernel version in GRUB?
[04:12] <thiagoarrais> sure, i moving the discussion to there...
[04:12] <databind> hey guys
[04:12] <Dutchy> S3RV0: i think acpi=off when loading it through the boatloader works
[04:12] <chr1s_> does anyone elses sound volume flucuate randomly?
[04:12] <orbin> S3RV0: you can pass 'acpi=off' ... or 'noacpi' ... i forgot which one
[04:12] <KanRiNiN> anybody?
[04:12] <Dutchy> bootloader*
[04:12] <databind> I got a problem while installing ubuntu 6.0 LTS
[04:12] <tech13> lupine_85, was using lilo, and it doesn't have the previous version listed.
[04:13] <nadia007> nozorro, I found the mirror pages... but do I just add the ftp location to my list of repository list?
[04:13] <SillyZ> Fingertips: this a machine without a cdrom drive?
[04:13] <lupine_85> tech13: then you'll need to boot from another source (live CD?) and go from there
[04:13] <databind> the screen res is so big 640x480 and the windows doesnt fit to the screen
[04:13] <thin_> hello, I'm installing ubuntu and can't get past step 2 of 6 (selecting my time zone)
[04:13] <Vanique> NthDegree: Available?
[04:13] <S3RV0> the menu doesn't offer the option on command line, and since it was partitioning grub before crashing my bootloaders gone ^.^
[04:13] <Vanique> ;)
[04:13] <thin_> any idea why i just get the hourglass / spinning circle?
[04:14] <tech13> lupine_85, tried booting the kubutu alternate cd in rescue mode, but lilo gave errors about device-mapper (i'm also using lvm....)
[04:14] <databind> it's busy
[04:14] <Fingertips> sillyz no im using a Desktop CD to install
[04:14] <foo> I have xterm*faceName: MiscFixed and xterm*faceSize: 12 in my .Xdefaults and it's not working.. my xterm fonts are still the same. I have another ubuntu desktop with fluxbox and it works fine .. hm, I did a server install on this one. Am I missing something?
[04:14] <orbin> databind: have you installed the system?
[04:14] <chr1s_> does anyone elses sound volume flucuate randomly?
[04:14] <lupine_85> tech-13: install grub? :)
[04:14] <thin_> is there a channel where total noobs can get actual help?
[04:15] <iceman24k> Wish i could find a Gdeskletes applet like the meck applet for karamba :(
[04:15] <Jack_Sparrow> thin_: Did you have the cd do a self test for errors.. Just because it boots does not mean there are no errors
[04:15] <tbaur> sup
[04:15] <abelle> Hello
[04:15] <nozorro> nadia007: yes but following the model in /etc/apt/sources-list, i.e. you add the basse server address, the 'dapper main restricted ...'
[04:15] <Cycne> sup?
[04:15] <orbin> thin_: does it actually lock up?
[04:15] <thin_> burnt multiple cd's and cd checed all using the cd check utility on the unubtu startup
[04:16] <thin_> not locked
[04:16] <thin_> just jerky
[04:16] <thin_> cant select a city
[04:16] <Fingertips> sounds like a graphcis card erro thin_
[04:16] <thin_> doing anything other than running the install program on the desktop worked fine
[04:16] <Jack_Sparrow> thin_: What hardware?
[04:16] <Cycne> no
[04:16] <tbaur> that's a secret
[04:17] <thin_> 64bit amd, msi board, 1.5 gigs of ram, 200 gig hard drive
[04:17] <iceman24k> thin_ nice system base :)
[04:17] <fluvvell> Fingertips: the pointmight be that the Desktop Disk is for Desktop Install, for text install try the alternative install disk
[04:17] <foo> I have xterm*faceName: MiscFixed and xterm*faceSize: 12 in my .Xdefaults and it's not working.. my xterm fonts are still the same. I have another ubuntu desktop with fluxbox and it works fine .. hm, I did a server install on this one. Am I missing something?
[04:17] <KanRiNiN> Hey guys, I compiled xvid from CVS using CFLAGS, and did a symbolic link...but how can I see if totem, for example, is using my compiled version or the libxvidcore4 that was installed through synaptic??
[04:17] <thin_> is ther a way to install where i can skip the time zone part, maybe this fancy map image zooming thing is buggy
[04:18] <Jack_Sparrow> thin_: sata I assume... not dual drive raid... How is the bios set for hard drive access?
[04:19] <thin_> IDE, i know nothing about raid or how the bios is set up at the moment. BUt everything else on the live cd works except for this install icon on the desktop
[04:19] <nozorro> foo: not to be rude, but we struggled with this problem 10 years already and then moved to other terminal apps :-)
[04:19] <foo> nozorro: hehe.
[04:20] <Jack_Sparrow> thin_: Any usb devices plugged in?  What type of video card
[04:20] <nozorro> foo: i'm quite serious, i insisting on using xterm is masochist behavior ...
[04:20] <foo> nozorro: What would you recommend?
[04:20] <foo> hm
[04:20] <Flannel> nadia007: pastebin your sources, if you're still in need of help ;)
[04:20] <nozorro> foo: why do you use xterm anyway?
[04:20] <thin_> ati x800 video card, 1 usb mouse, 1 usb printer cable
[04:21] <foo> nozorro: quick, easy, little
[04:21] <Telroth_Plushie|> foo, i use yakuake, a drop-down style terminal modeled after the ones you find in fps games
[04:21] <nadia007> Flannel, thx... might just do that...
[04:21] <Jack_Sparrow> thin_: Sorry for the 20 questions, just trying to narrow down the problem
[04:21] <nozorro> foo: yes, but add 8 hours to configure it properly :-|
[04:21] <foo> nozorro: Not 8 hours if I (or someone in here) knew what they were doing
[04:22] <thin_> is there a non gui method of installing to the harddrive?
[04:22] <Jack_Sparrow> thin_: Canon printer by chance?
[04:22] <firefly2442> anyone have any suggestions on where to go from here: http://www.pchdtv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1522
[04:22] <Flannel> thin_: alternate ISO
[04:22] <nadia007> thiin yes... using the alternative cd
[04:22] <thin_> printer is actually not plugged in
[04:22] <lupine_85> thin_: alt install CD, or dbootstrap
[04:22] <lupine_85> erm, debootstrap
[04:22] <thin_> how do i tell
[04:22] <thin_> wait, u asking or telling?
[04:23] <nozorro> foo: but i told you, understanding X resources is almost impossible and bordering the perverse. it seems you never configured X programs before kde
[04:23] <nozorro> foo: only if you're on a 486 laptop you have not alternatives but xterm
[04:23] <nozorro> foo: otherwise, just use gnome-terminal or the xfce terminal and be done with it
[04:24] <foo> nozorro: I see. Hmm. What do you recommend? Something light, like xterm. hmm
[04:24] <Alejandrito> Mi X wont load after the upgrade
[04:24] <Frederick> is there any way I can dl a package now and install it?
[04:24] <thin_> gonna try one of the other disks on the system I'm on right now and see what happens
[04:24] <Alejandrito> i have to remove nvidia from xorg conf
[04:24] <thin_> be back later
[04:25] <jrib> Alejandrito: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> thin_: If you have a non-64bit try that..
[04:25] <Alejandrito> that's will fix and load the nvidia module?
[04:25] <jrib> Alejandrito: nope
[04:25] <jrib> !nvidia > Alejandrito
[04:25] <thin_> i thought the non 64 on ran on x86 systems
[04:25] <thin_> *only
[04:25] <Alejandrito> well i need to fix that
[04:25] <azureal> i like urxvt more than xterm, but xterm has more colors...
[04:25] <Alejandrito> i am with nv right now
[04:26] <nozorro> nozorro: you'll label me obnoxious, but i recommend gnome-terminal for any computer built after 2000 or so
[04:26] <jrib> Alejandrito: ubotu should have sent you a link with the info for setting up nvidia
[04:26] <nozorro> foo: well that was for you, sorry
[04:26] <Frederick> oki bug was fixed but I still can't use apt anyone else with the same problem?
[04:26] <Flannel> nozorro, do we need to give you a break? talking to yourself?
[04:26] <Alejandrito> yeah thanks! i will reinstall my drivers again thanks!
[04:26] <nozorro> Flannel: sorry, two glasses of wine already :-)

[04:28] <codecaine> why is sound not sync with videos on mplayer on ubuntu?
[04:28] <jasz> codecaine what cpu do you have?
[04:28] <ootput> codecaine: I'm not experiencing that problem. Perhaps you have a/v sync issues with your media?
[04:28] <ootput> codecaine: use +, -, to adjust sync
[04:28] <jasz> that's usually due to a slow proc
[04:29] <jason> hello

[04:31] <Alejandrito> i do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx and lilo is a recomended pack? why?
[04:31] <Flannel> Alejandrito: no reason to install lilo if grub is working fine for you
[04:31] <bimberi> kdegel: it's a fork bomb and i wonder if it's allowed here
[04:31] <Alejandrito> yeah i don't get it
[04:31] <ootput> Alejandrito: it's recommended, but not essential
[04:31] <Alejandrito> can i skip this one?
[04:31] <Flannel> Alejandrito: yes
[04:31] <ootput> bimberi: it is?
[04:31] <jason> or maybe it's recommended but noit sggested
[04:31] <Alejandrito> can you please tell me how?
[04:31] <Flannel> Alejandrito: just don't install it
[04:32] <jason> no install it and press ctrl-alt-backspace
[04:32] <Alejandrito> here we go...
[04:32] <ootput> Alejandrito: sudo aptitude, search for nvidia-glx, +, g, go down to lilo, hit _

[04:36] <Flannel> kdegel: this isn't the place, anyway.
[04:36] <kitche> medic30420: what is your firewall a hardware or a software since if it's hardware(router) you need to do port forwarding
[04:36] <jason> shit on me
[04:36] <jbroome> that'll cost extra
[04:36] <medic30420> kitche: it is a netgear wireless router

[04:37] <jrib> wastrel: yes
[04:37] <corevette> does anybody have any idea why ubuntu won't recognize my netgear wireless wg311t wireless card
[04:38] <orbin> darsha: puredata ... ide for audio and graphics analysis?
[04:38] <kitche> medic30420: ok you just have to go into the wireless router and port forward the openssh by default it's 22
[04:38] <darsha> orbin: yes it is
[04:38] <orbin> darsha: what's wrong with the repos version?
[04:38] <kdegel> corevette, i havent had good luck with any wireless cards on the live cd, but then after the install it seems to work alright
[04:38] <medic30420> corvette: right click the network icon in the system tray and hit properties, first dropdown menu should list a three letter device with a number 0,1,2

[04:45] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: then the i386 iso
[04:45] <shadeofgrey> Flannel: i doubt thats so...
[04:45] <medic30420> foo: install compiz, super+mouse3
[04:45] <orbin> corevette: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[04:45] <Flannel> shadeofgrey: why?
[04:45] <shadeofgrey> because its 64 bit hardware with dual core processors
[04:46] <medic30420> foo: that is the hardway though

[04:57] <czer323> Tonight is definately a night for some questions.  Let me round up my list. ;)
[04:57] <onelife151> evening iceman24k
[04:57] <Alucard> bah! I tried to follow the frostwire even did the whole sysutil but terminal still says no frostwire directory
[04:57] <orbin> Ninwa: if you want a more featured burner app, k3b ior gnomebaker.
[04:58] <orbin> s/ior/or
[04:58] <iceman24k> anyone know what Ubuntu wont properly load freaking web pages ?
[04:58] <Ninwa> okay, thank you. this serves my purpose perfectly
[04:58] <Pthag> I have a question about /etc/fstab.
[04:58] <Pthag> You see, I've got an external HD, and it's the problem where by default it's write protected
[04:58] <kitche> iceman24k: what type of pages?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> Pthag,  what filesystem is on the drive?
[04:59] <Pthag> So I gather I need to add an extra line into /etc/fstab
[04:59] <Pthag> It's the windows one beginning with N
[04:59] <foo> How do I use xfontsel ? Where do I copy what it gives me to?
[04:59] <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
[04:59] <JoseStefan> How can I configure default ports for gnome-btdownload, permanently? Does it have a config file?
[04:59] <iceman24k> kitche trying to get on gnome-look.org but it just hangs.
[04:59] <Pthag> Thank you.
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> Pthag,  you need to use the 'umask=0222' option thats discussed on that url
[04:59] <eddie> I have a usb printer, how can I see what ubuntu shows it is connected?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> or a similer option. dependong on your needs.
[04:59] <cobelloy> hi there - I amusing breezy and I know that my multifunction works with gutenprint/cups - but its not showing up , can anyone help me?
[04:59] <orbin> Pthag: dapper doesn't provide write support by default for ntfs formatted drives
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> NTFS will be read only - oh yea. :P thats the safest bet
[05:00] <Pthag> So I'll need to install a package, then?
[05:00] <cobelloy> i mean dapper, not breezy, sorry
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> Pthag,  you really DONT want to write to a NTFS drive. you risk data loss/loss of the whole drive
[05:00] <Pthag> Oh.
[05:00] <kitche> Pthag: you can't make files to a NTFS anyways in linuc at this monet and you can't change the file size either of files already on the NTFS
[05:00] <Dr_Willis> There are some tools/things out to write to it.. but i got no idea how reliable they are.
[05:00] <Alucard> now that i run linux i've decided to throw all my deodorant away.
[05:01] <Pthag> Mm. That's unfortunate
[05:01] <onelife151> lol what for??
[05:01] <smoked1> I noticed that synaptic does not remove depends when something is removed. Do I have to remove them all one by one? What if something else depends on it and I remove it. Will it warn me first?
[05:01] <Alucard> haha oh man good ol' bash.org
[05:01] <czer323> deodorant is for pussies anyway.
[05:01] <PhilH> the new ntfs driver is apparently very good indeed but it's rather bleeding edge
[05:01] <onelife151> haven't had a chance to try it yet
[05:01] <kitche> PhilH: it's limited from what I just said
[05:02] <onelife151> thought it was just supposed to have r/w support how stable is it??
[05:02] <kdegel> holly crap, has anyone entered this sweet utility into the command line :(){ :|:& };:
[05:02] <onelife151> besides the fact that its bleeding edge
[05:02] <orbin> smoked1: aptitude tracks installed dependencies and removes them when possible when you remove a package
[05:02] <medic30420> PhilH: i am using it and have no problems whatsoever
[05:03] <onelife151> kk
[05:03] <jmrp> how do i fileshare my windows and linux machines
[05:03] <smoked1> so another program probably needed the dependencies.
[05:03] <codecaine> jmrp: samba
[05:03] <Alucard> can anyone help with frostwire?
[05:03] <iceman24k> damb highspeed internet and cant load pages
[05:03] <PhilH> medic30420, educate kitche then
[05:03] <jmrp> how do i canfigure samba
[05:04] <Flannel> !tell Alucard about frostwire
[05:04] <Alucard> I just "installed" and it's in my internet applications and all that jabba jabba but it just won't come up!
[05:04] <Flannel> !tell jmrp about samba
[05:04] <medic30420> kitche: hold on i am looking for the tutorial i used
[05:04] <Alucard> yeah i saw that site already
[05:04] <czer323> Can anyone point to any articles about Flash 9 and linux?  I heard that they just released it so I'd like to update.
[05:04] <codecaine> synaptics type in samba and install it
[05:04] <orbin> smoked1: no ... AFAIK aptitude tracks dependencies, synaptic doesn't ... so you'll have to remove one by one w/ synaptic, yes
[05:04] <kitche> czer323: hmm Flash 9 won't be out for a while I think
[05:04] <JoseStefan> How can I configure default ports for gnome-btdownload, permanently? Is there a config file?
[05:04] <Flannel> smoked1: or get something like deborphan/debfoster
[05:05] <codecaine> under systems->admin section choose share folder to share folders on linux
[05:05] <wastrel> there was a flash9 on linux demo but it's not released.
[05:05] <medic30420> kitche: http://ubuntuos.wordpress.com/2006/08/02/howto-write-to-windows-ntfs-drive-from-ubuntu-ntfs-3g/
[05:06] <mr_hus> for turion 64 X2 I should install the amd64 version i presume?
[05:06] <PhilH> more details on the driver itself can be found http://www.linux-ntfs.org/
[05:06] <Alucard> k how does one change the directory permissions so I can extract in the opt?
[05:06] <Dr_Willis> mr_hus,  not really.
[05:06] <kitche> czer323: nevermind what I said :)
[05:06] <medic30420> kitche: i am able to rename files, folders, delete, edit all without any glitches
[05:06] <mr_hus> its not that good?
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> mr_hus,  the 64bit version of the distro will not be able to do some of the daily tasks you want - if you want flash, and so on.
[05:07] <czer323> kitche: I'm finding results in digg, but I can't find any articles about how to do it.
[05:07] <medic30420> PhilH: kitche is now edjucamated
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> mr_hus,  unless you know you need 64bit-- id say stay with the 32bit versions
[05:07] <mr_hus> alright thanks
[05:07] <kitche> czer323: well I went to the page and it says 9 but when you click the download link it says 7.0
[05:07] <tsmcklv> whats up guys
[05:07] <czer323> wastrel, kitche: ahh, i get it.  I hope it comes out soon then.  Just wait a little longer.
[05:08] <Alucard> how do I change permissions to extract in opt?????
[05:08] <PhilH> medic30420, heh, well done
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> Alucard,  extract what?
[05:08] <Alucard> the frostwire
[05:08] <Alucard> zip file
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> Alucard,  normally one would use 'sudo' to install applications
[05:08] <Alucard> but hte opt properties say i'm not the owner
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> !frostwire
[05:08] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[05:08] <Alucard> yeah it just says on the tutorial to do that
[05:08] <Homer> !xgl
[05:08] <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
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> use the 'sudo' command as needed to do 'root' things. :P
[05:09] <tsmcklv> i have a problem [dont we all] : i have a laptop, running ubuntu [of course] , xgamma is not enough, i need to change the color contrast, google has been of no help
[05:09] <iceman24k> what the heck is this pagead2.googlesyndication.com in firefox, w t f is that
[05:09] <Pthag> So I guess the best thing to do would be to reformat the disk, right?
[05:09] <Frederick> folks how long until we can have our packages again?
[05:09] <mr_hus> Is the Atheros AR5005G Wireless Adapter known to work under linux?
[05:09] <Pthag> With the side-effect that it wouldn't be readable in Windows?
[05:09] <Pthag> I guess I could partition it
[05:10] <Alucard> BAH.
[05:10] <orbin> mr_hus: could check here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport ... if not, hit the forum
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> Pthag,  with the right tools windows - can read/write to ext2/3 drives
[05:10] <Alucard> man i suck at this
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> Alucard,  'sudo whatevercommandisdoingthingstoopt'
[05:10] <Pthag> Well, that's good news
[05:10] <Alucard> lol
[05:11] <JoseStefan> How can I set default ports for gnome-btdownload? Is there a config file?
[05:11] <PhilH> Pthag, you could always use fat32 as a simple option
[05:11] <tsmcklv> color contrast on laptops:  does anyone have a clue?
[05:11] <baconbacon> iceman24k: pagead*.googlesyndication.com is google ad servers
[05:11] <Pthag> fat32 is safe for both windows and ubuntu, right?
[05:12] <PhilH> Pthag, as long as you're only using it as a data disc yes
[05:12] <Homer> !wirless
[05:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wirless - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:12] <Homer> !wirwless
[05:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wirwless - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:12] <Homer> !wireless
[05:12] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:12] <Pthag> What else would I use it for:?
[05:12] <Homer> sorry :(
[05:12] <Frederick> can anyone please inform me i apt is back?
[05:12] <PhilH> Pthag, installing and running applications
[05:12] <Homer> apt is broken
[05:12] <cmpalmer> Frederick: are you pointing to us.archive or what?
[05:12] <Homer> ?
[05:12] <cmpalmer> Frederick: try pointing to just archive or se.archive instead
[05:12] <Homer> this is news to me I just apt-get like 6 things
[05:12] <cmpalmer> Frederick: in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:13] <Pthag> What is the risk of using it to run applications?
[05:13] <PhilH> Pthag, fat32 is probably your best get unless you want to do a moderate amount of messing around to get either windows or linux to write to a non native FS
[05:13] <Frederick> cmpalmerI will try again brb
[05:13] <Pthag> Reckon I'll go with fat32, then
[05:14] <tsmcklv> color contrast?
[05:14] <PhilH> Pthag, there isnt' really any risk, it's just that lack of case sensitivity may cause problems for some linux apps
[05:14] <Flannel> PhilH: the problem with fat32 is the file size limit, and the lack of permissions
[05:14] <Homer> !themes
[05:14] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://kdelook.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[05:14] <Pthag> It's just that possible data loss sounds incredibly risky
[05:14] <PhilH> Flannel, tell this to Pthag
[05:14] <cmpalmer> Homer: please query the bot and ask it questions there
[05:15] <Pthag> Are permissions really all that critical for a one-user system?
[05:15] <PhilH> Pthag, what are you planning to do with the disk?
[05:15] <Pthag> And isn't the file-size limit still pretty huge?
[05:15] <Pthag> Well, mostly just data storage
[05:15] <Pthag> mp3s and films and that
[05:15] <PhilH> no problem then
[05:15] <PhilH> how large is the disc?
[05:15] <Pthag> 250 Gb
[05:16] <PhilH> ok, well that could be a problem then
[05:16] <Flannel> Pthag: 4gb files, so you can't do DVD isos
[05:16] <Homer> hey I updated firefox through apt and it still says 1.0.8
[05:16] <Homer> do I need to reboot or something?
[05:16] <Flannel> Homer: youre using breezy?
[05:16] <Homer> yeah
[05:16] <Flannel> !tell Homer about firefox
[05:17] <Flannel> Homer: you can either install that, or upgrade to dapper, to get 1.5
[05:17] <Homer> upgrade to dapper is apt-get dist-update?
[05:17] <LookTJ> i installed firefox 1.5.0..7 now all my extensions are gone
[05:17] <cmpalmer> Homer: no
[05:17] <Pthag> Well, if I partition the 250 gig drive, that shouldn't be a problem, right?
[05:17] <cmpalmer> Homer: go edit your /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:17] <KanRiNiN> g
[05:17] <cmpalmer> Homer: change "breezy" instances to "dapper"
[05:18] <Flannel> cmpalmer: no, no reason to do that.
[05:18] <Flannel> !tell Homer about upgrade
[05:18] <dcroce> hey guys i have a question about my sound, anyone can help me out?
[05:18] <Homer> I did that already
[05:18] <Flannel> Homer: theres a much easier/more automated method, read that link
[05:18] <Flannel> Homer: you upgraded to dapper?
[05:18] <Borat> Whoever can solve this thread gets  a COOKIE!!
[05:18] <cmpalmer> Flannel: thanks for pointing that out
[05:18] <Borat> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=257336
[05:19] <matiu> I just made a repo, but when people go apt-get update, it hangs at 99% then times out. Could someone please have a look and let me know what I can do to fix it? http://exe.sourceforge.net/ubuntu
[05:19] <orbin> dcroce: just ask ;)
[05:19] <czer323> Any articles for configuring a laptop touchpad to use a two-finger tap as a right click?  It seems like it's defaulting to a middle click instead.
[05:19] <Homer> no I changed my sources.list
[05:19] <matiu> in apt/sources.list I put: deb http://exe.sourceforge.net/ubuntu current main
[05:19] <Flannel> Borat: you should connect with ftp, not https
[05:19] <kitche> maitu it doesn't load
[05:20] <Flannel> Homer: read that link, it'll give you detailed information about upgrading to dapper
[05:20] <kitche> maitu: sicne sourceforge's hosting seems down for project pages
[05:20] <Homer> it basically says to do that
[05:20] <matiu> kitche: do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
[05:20] <sethk> matiu, it always times out?
[05:20] <Homer> change sources.list and type apt-get dist-update
[05:20] <Borat> Flannel: it says "Couldn't display "ftp://yassamis025@https/lhfs...vusd.org/students/yassamis025", because no host "https" could be found"
[05:20] <matiu> for me and 1 other guy

[05:20] <sethk> matiu, ok, what's the nature of the changes?
[05:21] <Flannel> Borat: really, there are a lot of variables, You need explicit details from your school on how to log in
[05:21] <Flannel> Borat: what protocol, etc
[05:21] <matiu> Re-ran the compile script :)
[05:21] <kitche> matiu: could be that sourceforge.net hosting is dowmn
[05:21] <sethk> matiu, seems unlikely that it's s.f.
[05:21] <sethk> kitche, how would that get to 99% but fail every time to get to 100%
[05:21] <sethk> kitche, or is this a different problem?
[05:21] <kitche> sethk: all of s.f. pages won't load
[05:21] <matiu> it seems to give "time out.."
[05:21] <sethk> kitche, oh, ok, that's definitely different
[05:21] <Borat> Flannel: this is the instructions they give.
[05:22] <Borat> http://www.svusd.org/hp_images/1752/D23112-Web%20Folder%20from%20home%20(PC).pdf
[05:22] <sethk> matiu, it always says "time out", no matter what the error actually is
[05:22] <gotgenes> Hi all. My notebook's sound works great in Dapper but my hotkeys (Vol. Up, Vol. Down, Mute) are connected to the wrong source. Is it possible to change the source, possibly through some ALSA configuration?
[05:22] <kitche> sethk: well the hosting won't load but the project files you can find if you search sourceforge
[05:22] <sethk> kitche, could well be different servers for http and file downloads
[05:22] <matiu> so far for me yes. always says timeout
[05:22] <sethk> matiu, for everyone
[05:22] <sethk> matiu, unfortunately, the only error you will ever see is "timeout on server"
[05:22] <matiu> I don't know about anyone else, what message they're getting
[05:23] <sethk> matiu, which once in a while actually is a timeout
[05:23] <matiu> oh
[05:23] <matiu> I see
[05:23] <mabus> ALl of the sudden my sudo does not work, why? When I type sudo echo "hi", it prompts for my password and then does nothing after successful entry.
[05:23] <kitche> matiu: are you using exe.sourceforge.net/ubuntu to download the repo?
[05:23] <Flannel> Borat: believe that's samba then.
[05:23] <dcroce> hey guys, so i can hear system sounds or if i record something, and play it back i can hear my sound,... but i cant play any stations from DI... or mp3s.. or myspace... or twit... do i need need to download a codex ???
[05:23] <matiu> kitche: yes
[05:23] <sethk> matiu, the way to see what is really happening is to sniff the packets with ethereal (or another tool is you prefer a different one).  that will let you see what actually happens.
[05:23] <Frederick> hi I'm back, how can I unblock my apt?
[05:23] <Borat> Flannel: So what do i put in?
[05:23] <Telroth|Sleep> mabus, is the user part of the admin group ?
[05:23] <sethk> matiu, ethereal has a feature "trace tcp/ip stream" that wil isolate a particular conversation for you.
[05:24] <kitche> matiu: it's a s.f. problem then
[05:24] <Telroth|Sleep> dcroce
[05:24] <Telroth|Sleep> !repos
[05:24] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[05:24] <mabus> Telroth|Sleep: I think I accidentally removed it, I didn't know it had to be in a certain group, just in the sudoers
[05:24] <Flannel> !tell Borat about samba
[05:24] <kitche> matiu: go to your page and it won't load
[05:24] <sethk> matiu, if it never responds, I agree with kitche
[05:24] <Flannel> Borat: it'll be smb://
[05:24] <mabus> Telroth|Sleep: Have I gone and broke my system completely now? I didn't set a root pw.
[05:24] <Telroth|Sleep> mabus, i'm not sure on the technical details, but i believe the sudoers file works by group and not be user
[05:24] <matiu> Thanks kitche and sethk. Hopefully it's sourceforge, I'll try again tommorrow
[05:24] <Telroth|Sleep> mabus, no
[05:24] <Frederick> folks -> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavail any idea?
[05:24] <Flannel> mabus: there is no root password by default
[05:24] <Telroth|Sleep> mabus, reboot and select recovery
[05:24] <mabus> Flannel: I realise that.
[05:25] <dcroce> telroth: ok
[05:25] <Alucard> god fucking damn it
[05:25] <Telroth|Sleep> it'll drop you at a root prompt
[05:25] <Flannel> Frederick: close the other package manager you have open
[05:25] <Borat> Flannel: now it says no host smb can be found..\
[05:25] <Flannel> !language
[05:25] <mabus> Telroth|Sleep: Thanks.
[05:25] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:25] <orbin> Frederick: synaptic/apt-get in use?
[05:25] <Flannel> Borat: read the link ubotu sent you, you'll have to install some stuff
[05:25] <cmpalmer> Frederick: you have multiple apt-gets running?
[05:25] <mabus> Telroth|Sleep: And add my main user to what group? And do I do it in the -g option or the -G option?
[05:25] <Alucard> i just can't believe it's so hard to install frostwire
[05:25] <Frederick> erm wrong error E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper_multiverse_source_Sources - open (2 No such file or directory)
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> Alucard,  you dont have to install it in /opt/ you could install it in your users /home dir.
[05:25] <Telroth|Sleep> mabus, i don't know, you'll need to read up on ubuntu's method of sudoing on google or somewhere
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> do i even have frostwire on here.. lets see
[05:25] <Dr_Willis> !frostwire
[05:25] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[05:26] <Telroth|Sleep> mabus, let me check my system
[05:26] <Frederick> you said I must fix a file but I was in windows
[05:26] <Alucard> yeah i'm just extremely confused as to the next step, i retried using the the deb file but it didn't do anything
[05:26] <JoseStefan> Alucard, install it using a .deb file, like the wiki states
[05:26] <Alucard> did
[05:26] <Alucard> but when i do that i click on it
[05:26] <Alucard> and nothing at all happens
[05:26] <cmpalmer> mabus "admin" group
[05:27] <Alucard> and terminal says no such file/directory
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> apt-cache search frostwire
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> frostwire - A Truly Free and Open Source Peer to Peer client
[05:27] <cmpalmer> mabus: "man adduser"
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> Alucard,  it seems to be in the repos.. you should be able to 'sudo apt-get install frostwire'
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> !info frostwire
[05:27] <ubotu> Package frostwire does not exist in any distro I know
[05:27] <Dr_Willis> wtf.. it just showed on my apt-cache search
[05:27] <JoseStefan> Dr_Willis, if you installed the deb manually, it will show in apt-cache
[05:27] <Alucard> says it's already on it's newest version..
[05:28] <mabus> cmpalmer: I read the man please dont rtfm me, but should the -g group be admin, mabus, users, or what
[05:28] <Dr_Willis> JoseStefan,  yea - i was just thinking that.
[05:28] <Borat> Flannel: for some weird reason, its telling me that the ubuntu website is forbidden so i cannot fetch the packets that i want
[05:28] <Frederick> any ideas for me?
[05:28] <Dr_Willis> Ver 4.10 hmm.
[05:28] <Alucard> ah! i need to upgrade java..
[05:28] <Alucard> that's what happend.
[05:28] <Alucard> good ol' linux
[05:28] <Alucard> haha
[05:29] <Dr_Willis> Alucard,  you do need to be using the actual SUN java as well I think
[05:29] <Dr_Willis> not that glj one.
[05:29] <gotgenes> Hi Is it possible to change the sound source target hotkeys (Vol. Up, Vol. Down, Mute) affect? Anyone know how?
[05:29] <Alucard> sun java?
[05:29] <Flannel> !java
[05:29] <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
[05:30] <JoseStefan> that factoid could be better
[05:30] <cmpalmer> mabus: I'm not sure what you read, but -g doesn't make sense
[05:30] <Frederick> folks i think my apt is broken ould not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper_multiverse_source_Sources - open (2 No such file or directory) =/
[05:30] <Dr_Willis> Yes. there are alternatives to suns official java..  they dont work well with some apps.
[05:31] <cmpalmer> mabus: if the username you want to add is "mabus" then "sudo adduser mabus admin"
[05:31] <Frederick> cmpalmer, can you repeat for me please ;)
[05:31] <cmpalmer> mabus: that would obviously have to be run by a user in the admin group
[05:32] <davin> yo
[05:32] <cmpalmer> Frederick: /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:32] <davin> ya man
[05:32] <Frederick> cmpalmer, what do to there? remove it?
[05:32] <davin> /etc/media
[05:32] <cmpalmer> Frederick: nono
[05:33] <cmpalmer> Frederick: where you see "us.archive.ubuntu.com" you could change it to another country code temporarily
[05:33] <cmpalmer> Frederick: eg. se.archive.ubuntu.com
[05:33] <Flannel> Frederick: or drop the country code entirely, archive.ubuntu.com
[05:33] <cmpalmer> that too
[05:34] <Frederick> I can't see this line I will post the file I have
[05:34] <cmpalmer> mabus: you have a user that's in the admin group or otherwise have root access?
[05:35] <Frederick> http://rafb.net/paste/results/qyj3iI62.html
[05:35] <cmpalmer> mabus: if not, you'll need to boot to single user mode to add the user to the admin group
[05:36] <cmpalmer> mabus: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.3-Manual/custom-guide/s1-rescuemode-booting-single.html
[05:36] <mabus> cmpalmer: ok thanks
[05:37] <Frederick> it got worse =/ Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/se.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_dapper_main_source_Sources - open (2 No such file or directory)
[05:37] <Alucard> Well, sun java is installing, hopefully it'll work after this
[05:37] <mabus> cmpalmer: but i also want mabus to be a member of the users group so it can access the root:users folders
[05:37] <Alucard> thanks for the help. Dr_Willis
[05:37] <mabus> How do you unzip a file? unzip just produces a list of the zip archive, and the man is overwhelming
[05:37] <kitche> mabus: unzip <file>.zip
[05:37] <Frederick> mabus, unzip -r?
[05:38] <cobelloy> can someone tell me how to restart cups from cli?
[05:38] <matt_> is it a windows zip file?

[05:41] <ghosty> pibarnas: yes
[05:41] <matt_> pibarnas: I should think so, but haven't tried myself
[05:41] <ghosty> pibarnas: you don't need an ide drive at all

[05:50] <TiG4> estupendocero, see what comes up, ill think about it a little more
[05:50] <DaveyJ> okay quick question
[05:50] <DaveyJ> i'm building a backup server right now
[05:50] <DaveyJ> what should i make the drives? ext3?
[05:51] <DaveyJ> which has the best data recovery?
[05:51] <TiG4> DaveyJ, storage drives?
[05:51] <DaveyJ> well yeah more or less
[05:51] <DaveyJ> used for backups
[05:51] <nebular> TiG4: yeah
[05:51] <Borat> Heres my pastebin..
[05:51] <Borat> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23493
[05:51] <TiG4> DaveyJ, either Fat32 or NTFS
[05:51] <jasz> hell yeah
[05:51] <jasz> mplayer plays 'em fine :)
[05:51] <TiG4> DaveyJ, Only NTFS is still in "beta"
[05:51] <OofCZer0> i need someones help really bad, i have no idea what im doing on ubuntu and i installed it but it does not give me the option to boot ubuntu it just boots windows, and i was trying to get help from someone but i dont understand what they were telling me to do, so if someone could break it down barney style(step by step) it would be great. thank you
[05:51] <jasz> thanks all
[05:51] <nomasteryoda> you could increase the block size too for faster backups
[05:51] <DaveyJ> yeah not NTFS lol
[05:51] <TiG4> jasz, glad I could help
[05:51] <nomasteryoda> lol
[05:51] <nomasteryoda> ext3
[05:51] <DaveyJ> does fat32 support 230gig drives?
[05:51] <TiG4> DaveyJ, I'd recommend Fat32
[05:52] <nomasteryoda> if external
[05:52] <nomasteryoda> i would go with ext2
[05:52] <JoseStefan> fat32 does not have good recovery
[05:52] <DaveyJ> nomasteryoda: learned that the hard way
[05:52] <DaveyJ> lol
[05:52] <nomasteryoda> ya
[05:52] <nomasteryoda> me too
[05:52] <DaveyJ> i made an external ext3
[05:52] <DaveyJ> worked fine once
[05:52] <DaveyJ> then i went to access the info again and BAM
[05:52] <DaveyJ> all corrupt
[05:52] <nomasteryoda> yup
[05:52] <nomasteryoda> journalized is ok for internal though
[05:52] <sethk> DaveyJ, I used ext3 on all sorts of external devices.
[05:52] <sethk> ext3 is not a problem in those situations
[05:53] <nomasteryoda> i only did it on 2 drives...
[05:53] <billybennett> reiserfs!
[05:53] <billybennett> :P
[05:53] <JoseStefan> ext3 has options to make it more robust, or even similar to ext2
[05:53] <DaveyJ> well reguardless
[05:53] <nomasteryoda> but ... wtih ext2 you can read them on windows
[05:53] <nomasteryoda> if you need to
[05:53] <brendonjt> ext3  seems  to be flavour  of the month
[05:53] <nomasteryoda> and ext3
[05:53] <billybennett> whoa.. ext2 can be read in Windows?
[05:53] <sethk> nomasteryoda, with ext3 also
[05:53] <nomasteryoda> ya
[05:53] <Dr_Willis> ext3 is backwards compatiable with ext2
[05:53] <Dr_Willis> billybennett,  yes.
[05:53] <nomasteryoda> yup sethk

[05:54] <Dr_Willis> oops
[05:54] <DaveyJ> lol
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> billybennett,  yes.. of course. :P
[05:54] <nomasteryoda> any of you running aiglx?
[05:54] <billybennett> OofCZer0, my mother was at my house... first time so I had to entertain
[05:54] <kitche> nomasteryoda: I run it

[05:54] <nomasteryoda> cool
[05:54] <OofCZer0> billybennett, gotcha, so can you help me or not

[05:54] <billybennett> Dr_Willis, looks very interesting
[05:55] <Borat> TiG4: how?
[05:55] <JoseStefan> !source-o-matic
[05:55] <TiG4> Borat, Did you make a backup?
[05:55] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:55] <miked595> anyone know how get the braodcom 4318 wifi workin
[05:55] <TiG4> touche JoseStefan ... touche
[05:55] <TiG4> ;)
[05:55] <Borat> Thanks.
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> billybennett,  if windows crashes however. while accessing the ext2 drive.. linux wll want to scan/fix it next time it is mounted
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> billybennett,  so i normally keep a ext2/3 data partition for a 'data shared location'
[05:56] <TiG4> Dr_Willis, FAT32 is cross-platform
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> not a vfat one any more. :P
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> TiG4,  i dont like the limits that fat32 does
[05:56] <TiG4> Dr_Willis, You wont need any plugins in windows, thats why i recommend it
[05:56] <OofCZer0> billybennett: i need your help
[05:56] <TiG4> Dr_Willis, Are you going to have files bigger than 4gb?
[05:56] <billybennett> OofCZer0, whats up
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> TiG4,  actually yes.. i do. :P
[05:56] <DaveyJ> i probably will
[05:56] <DaveyJ> lol
[05:56] <DaveyJ> video editing :)
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> and i want very large partitions.
[05:57] <TiG4> DaveyJ, Go with NTFS, its experimental but it works quite well id say
[05:57] <Tom_Reinke> Hi everyone
[05:57] <TiG4> DaveyJ, EXT is finicky in Win32
[05:57] <OofCZer0> billybennett: so i got past where matt was, and got ubuntu installed, but it wont let me choose which to boot, it just uses windows, and  i tried getting help, but im just too confused, and i need help as if i were a baby
[05:57] <TiG4> !greet Tom_Reinke
[05:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about greet Tom_Reinke - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:57] <TiG4> lol
[05:57] <Borat> TiG4: Im still getting the Error!!!
[05:57] <grimx> ok i downloade FrostWire.deb and installed it by way of dpkg .. it show up in aplications list but does not execute
[05:57] <TiG4> Borat, can you access the directory in a browser
[05:57] <TiG4> ?
[05:58] <DaveyJ> i dont do experimental on a backup server
[05:58] <kitche> OofCZer0: well it should give you a menu when you boot your computer
[05:58] <Flannel> OofCZer0: you probably need to hit ... er, del, I think?  to get to the grub menu, there will be a little text thing after your BIOS/Post screen, telling you what to push
[05:58] <DaveyJ> i need something reliable
[05:58] <JoseStefan> grimx, you need Sun's Java
[05:58] <JoseStefan> !java
[05:58] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[05:58] <OofCZer0> kitche but it doesnt
[05:58] <OofCZer0> kitche it just boots windows, done, thats it
[05:58] <billybennett> OofCZer0, you might need the Super Grub CD
[05:58] <grimx> i have java plugin installed with firefox mozilla
[05:58] <Borat> TiG4: Yes i can.
[05:58] <JoseStefan> grimx, not the same thing as Sun's Java
[05:58] <OofCZer0> billybennett que es das?
[05:59] <grimx> oh ok
[05:59] <billybennett> OofCZer0, do what? :P
[05:59] <JoseStefan> !java > grimx
[05:59] <Flannel> OofCZer0: the grub list is hidden by default, you need to push whatever the key is to show it while booting
[05:59] <OofCZer0> billybennett what is that
[05:59] <grimx> jre
[05:59] <nomasteryoda> Esc
[05:59] <TiG4> Borat, I don't know then. There is obviously something wrong but I'm not sure what it is. Sorry.
[05:59] <Montag_> XGL is so beautiful.
[05:59] <Flannel> OofCZer0: or, you can just edit your grub config to not hide the menu by default
[05:59] <iceman241> crap, where is tha UBUNTU icon thats in the Gnome panel upper left corent ? that ugly brown sob
[05:59] <billybennett> OofCZer0, they are smarter then me :)
[06:00] <OofCZer0> Flannel so its like that for everyone when they first do it
[06:00] <OofCZer0> Flannel and i would do that how?
[06:00] <Flannel> OofCZer0: do which one?
[06:00] <miked595> anyone know how get the braodcom 4318 wifi workin on an hp dv8000
[06:00] <billybennett> OofCZer0, I wonder the same thing
[06:00] <OofCZer0> billybennett: i know but i figured if i asked you everyone else would help out
[06:00] <Tom_Reinke> Ok, question. I just installed ubuntu, since my old 300 mhz IBM died last night. Now I'm stuck with a fresh install, can someone take me through the steps of getting everything back to normal?
[06:00] <Tom_Reinke> First off, where is that wiki page...?
[06:00] <OofCZer0> billybennett just giving you props, and i need to know if i bring my hd to you can you TRY to recover it???? PLZZZZ
[06:03] (Flannel/#ubuntu) danielmarsom: use that, don'tpaste here
[06:03] (danielmarsom/#ubuntu) Flannel: ?
[06:04] (Flannel/#ubuntu) !paste
[06:04] (OofCZer0/#ubuntu) Flannel ok well im going to restart and watch very carefully for the button thing and i will be back in a min if i cant find it, but thank you
[06:04] (JoseStefan/#ubuntu) !tell danielmarsom about pastebin
[06:04] (Flannel/#ubuntu) OofCZer0: it'll be right after the POST screen
[06:04] (OofCZer0/#ubuntu) billybennett ill call you if i have a problem
[06:04] (OofCZer0/#ubuntu) Flannel gotcha, thanks
[06:04] (Flannel/#ubuntu) OofCZer0: and, you can always just hit escape a bunch anyway.
[06:04] (OofCZer0/#ubuntu) Flannel so escape is the key
[06:04] (Tom_Reinke/#ubuntu) Can someone please direct me to a page of everything that you can install with sudo apt-get install? I remember there being a website about that
[06:04] (OofCZer0/#ubuntu) Flannel or is it del
[06:04] (danielmarsom/#ubuntu) ah ok thx but its done now.. so can anyone help me out?
[06:04] (Flannel/#ubuntu) matt_: put a / before the leave
[06:05] (Flannel/#ubuntu) OofCZer0: escape
[06:05] (billybennett/#ubuntu) OofCZer0, okay let me turn down the volume.. I can act as proxy
[06:05] (Flannel/#ubuntu) Tom_Reinke: packages.ubuntu.com
[06:05] (OofCZer0/#ubuntu) billybennett lol
[06:05] (OofCZer0/#ubuntu) Flannel  thank you again
[06:05] (JoseStefan/#ubuntu) !tell danielmarsom about frostwire
[06:06] <danielmarsom> thanks
[06:06] <Milktea> What's the equivalent of ipconfig
[06:06] <Milktea> from DOS
[06:06] <Milktea> in bash
[06:06] <eXcentra> ifconfig?
[06:06] <effer> anyone know what i should do if i get this message when i do ./configure : You need boost/bind.hpp from the boost library to run Aleph One
[06:06] <Milktea> thanks
[06:07] <kitche> effer: you need boost installed
[06:07] <effer> kitche, what is boost?
[06:07] <kitche> effer: it's a C++ library
[06:07] <effer> kitche, ah ok...finding it now, thanks :)
[06:08] <Tom_Reinke> Can someone please direct me to a page where there is a list of all of the available packets and how to install them?
[06:08] <effer> kitche, can i apt-get it?
[06:08] <Tom_Reinke> I know there is one, I've seen it before.
[06:08] <JoseStefan> Tom_Reinke: packages.ubuntu.com
[06:08] <kitche> effer: might try to apt-get I don't have ubuntu installed yet since I need to play around with it's cd to make it work for me
[06:09] <OofCZer0> Flannel ok no luck
[06:09] <Tom_Reinke> JoseStefan, server not found
[06:09] <Flannel> OofCZer0: did you install windows second?
[06:09] <OofCZer0> Flannel no 1st
[06:09] <JoseStefan> Tom_Reinke: http://packages.ubuntu.com/  i just verified it
[06:10] <Tom_Reinke> Josetefan, sorry my computer was being stupid..
[06:10] <Flannel> OofCZer0: did you use the alternate ISO, and do something funky with not installing a bootloader or something? or installing it somewhere else?
[06:10] <Rodrigo1> hi
[06:11] <effer> kitche, for futre reference, you can get it from synaptic (libboost)...thanks for your help :)
[06:11] <effer> *future
[06:11] <Rodrigo1> I would like to know if ubuntu will run fine on a pentium 2 300 mhz with 64 ram?
[06:11] <Rodrigo1> i want to install it on my old pc
[06:11] <seamus7_> hello... i'm having problems with EasyUbuntu .... it won't uninstalll .... can anyone help?
[06:11] <Tom_Reinke> JoseStefan, my terminal said it couldn't find the package.. I remember something about repositories?
[06:11] <cmpalmer> Rodrigo1: you want to run a GUI?
[06:11] <kitche> effer: well I just use boost libboost is something different
[06:11] <Flannel> seamus7_: #easyubuntu
[06:11] <marlacwp> I had java 1.4.2 installed and then installed 1.5.  I ran sudo update-alternatives --config java to make 1.5 the default, but Eclipse still uses 1.4.2.  Is there a way to switch it in one step or must I find every Java pref in Eclipse and figure out how to make it ref 1.5 instead of 1.4.2?
[06:11] <OofCZer0> Flannel i dont believe so, i had some problems installing it at first, cause i had so many partitions on two harddrives and it was hard to figure it out, so i went through windows and got rid of the partitions, and then went into it and installed ubuntu and it said installed correctly, and the whole reboot, and take cd out, and i did that and then windows just booted and thats it, so i dont think i did anything crazy but it is possibl
[06:11] <Rodrigo1> yes
[06:12] <cmpalmer> Rodrigo1: I would run xubuntu on that, not the default ubuntu
[06:12] <seamus7_> I'm also on #easyubuntu but no one is active there
[06:12] <difeta> who come I can't apt-get from us.archive.ubuntu.com? Is there a mirror?
[06:12] <cmpalmer> Rodrigo1: I think gnome would be a bit heavy for a machine that old
[06:12] <Flannel> OofCZer0: yeah, sounds like your grub never got installed, or didn't get installed on the MBR, this page should be able to fix it, whatever the original problem was: help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[06:12] <Rodrigo1> xubuntu? a different distro?
[06:12] <cmpalmer> difeta: just strip the us. from that
[06:12] <cmpalmer> Rodrigo1: it's an official version
[06:13] <Flannel> seamus7_: we don't support easyubuntu, it isn't official.  You could try #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:13] <Rodrigo1> what about kde or window maker?
[06:13] <cmpalmer> Rodrigo1: it uses the xfce desktop instead of gnome
[06:13] <difeta> cmpalmer, ok thanks
[06:13] <Rodrigo1> cmpalmer:  can you tell me the website?
[06:13] <Flannel> Rodrigo1: kde is kubuntu, you could use window maker, sure.
[06:13] <eXcentra> Rodrigo1, xfce is more lightweight
[06:13] <Rodrigo1> xfce
[06:13] <cmpalmer> Rodrigo1: go to the main ubuntu site, there should be a Xubuntu logo
[06:13] <Rodrigo1> ok im gonna take a look on that
[06:13] <Rodrigo1> ok thanks
[06:13] <cmpalmer> np
[06:13] <JoseStefan> 1repos > Tom_Reinke
[06:13] <JoseStefan> !repos > Tom_Reinke
[06:14] <seamus7_> is anyone familiar with the EasyUbuntu installation problem... others seem to be having the same problem
[06:14] <Flannel> Rodrigo1: you might be best served getting the alternate ISO (you'll need it to install on such low ram anyway) typing 'server' at the boot prompt, it'll install just the basics, no GUI, and then you can add window maker, or fluxbox, or whatever you like, ontop of them
[06:14] <Rodrigo1> does xfce comes with ubuntu?
[06:14] <miked595> anyone know how get the braodcom 4318 wifi workin on an hp dv8000
[06:14] <Flannel> seamus7_: this is NOT the place to ask for easyubuntu support, #easyubuntu, or if anyone knows, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:15] <Rodrigo1> or xubuntu..
[06:15] <Rodrigo1> k thanks Flannel
[06:15] <OofCZer0> Flannel so im using this section correct "Using the Install CD and Overwriting the Windows bootloader"
[06:15] <Flannel> Rodrigo1: yes, they're all sort of the same thing, just with different GUIs, all part of the ubuntu family
[06:15] <matt_> Does anyone here use konqueror over firefox?
[06:15] <bimberi> !xubuntu
[06:15] <Rodrigo1> it used to run mandrake and conectiva all good
[06:15] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[06:15] <Flannel> OofCZer0: do you have the desktop ISO or the alternate ISO?
[06:15] <mortal5> has anyone here successfully used ffmpeg in ubuntu?
[06:15] <OofCZer0> Flannel desktop
[06:15] <seamus7_> oh thx ...very helpful
[06:15] <Flannel> OofCZer0: then you'll use the liveCD one.  using the LiveCD and overwritng windows Bootloader
[06:16] <OofCZer0> Flannel ok thanks, if it doesnt work ill be back in a min or two
[06:16] <miked595> think i'm gonna have to go to gentoo to get this thing workin
[06:16] <Tom_Reinke> Can someone give me some 1 on 1 time and help me set my repositories and some other issues I'm having?
[06:16] <Rodrigo1> nice i think xubuntu is the best option for me
[06:16] <matt_> ok Tom
[06:16] <SuperMiguel> how can i make a vim shortcut
[06:17] <Flannel> Tom_Reinke: join #ubuntu-classroom
[06:17] <UKMatt> can anyone here help me set up XGL/compiz?
[06:17] <Flannel> UKMatt: #ubuntu-xgl
[06:17] <UKMatt> actually, limme rephrase that, i have it set up i just need help configuring
[06:17] <Flannel> UKMatt: #ubuntu-xgl or #xgl
[06:18] <Tom_Reinke> Who was it that said they'd be willing to help me 1 on 1?
[06:18] <Flannel> Tom_Reinke: #ubuntu-classroom
[06:18] <Tom_Reinke> GAIM IRC killed itself again
[06:18] <billybennett> Hi I'm trying to update my GAIM but I know I sohuldnt remove gaim because its attached to gnome-desktop... I'm following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaim_2.0_Beta_3_Quick_Install
[06:18] <Flannel> billybennett: go ahead and remove it, removal of the ubuntu-desktop metapackage is no big deal
[06:19] <Flannel> billybennett: you'll want to reinstall it before upgrading to edgy though
[06:19] <OofCZer0> billybennett which iso did matt download for me????
[06:19] <billybennett> OofCZer0, most likely i386 desktop
[06:19] <OofCZer0> billybennett so is that livecd or no
[06:19] <billybennett> OofCZer0, yes
[06:19] <OofCZer0> billybennett thank wodie
[06:20] <billybennett> Flannel, will I lose auto updates of programs that come with Ubuntu?
[06:20] <seamus7_> Will KTorrent work on the Gnome desktop? I installed it but nothing.
[06:21] <Flannel> billybennett: no, you'll just lose any new packages added to ubuntu-desktop, which there shouldn't be during dappers lifecycle, but thats why you want to readd it before upgrading
[06:21] <sean> lots of helpful people here :)
[06:21] <billybennett> Flannel, I know it goes against everything linux but Ill prob do a clean install of Edgy.. just so I can feel clean and better ya know
[06:21] <cafuego> at least two, and 821 robots.
[06:22] <Flannel> billybennett: shrug, thats fine.  you wont need to re-add when upgrading then ;)
[06:22] <sean> I have a silly question.
[06:23] <ireneshusband> Greetings. How do I connect a laptop to our home lan through another machine so that it is visible to the lan (i.e. without NAT, port-forwarding etc.)?
[06:24] <Dr_Willis> ireneshusband,  you mean how to wire it to the network?
[06:24] <ireneshusband> yup
[06:24] <Dr_Willis> ugh.. get a hub, and run the cables to the hub
[06:24] <Dr_Willis> :) or better yet a switch
[06:25] <SuperMiguel> how can i login as root?
[06:25] <ireneshusband> dr_willis. problem is that the router is in the wrong place so I need to connect through a spare ethernet port on another machine on the lan.
[06:25] <irawan> ireneshusband: what do you mean with "through another machine"?
[06:25] <ireneshusband> through a desktop with 2 ethernet ports
[06:26] <irawan> Ok I see what you mean
[06:26] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, they do sell longer cables
[06:26] <Flannel> SuperMiguel: why do you need to?
[06:26] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, ethernet uses star topology, passing thru another machine involves routing
 in dapper the root account is disabled,  but on the ubuntu wiki  i think there is a article there on how to enable it, otherwise just su
[06:27] <ireneshusband> i know. but the cable I have won't fit through the hole available and I need to get some work done etc.etc.
[06:27] <seamus7_> In SYNAPTIC: what does the error message mean "'subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1" when I try to uninstall a package???
[06:27] <Dr_Willis> ireneshusband,  what is this 'other' machine running? linux? or windows?
[06:27] <Flannel> SuperMiguel, brendonjt, don't su.  sudo -s or sudo -i
[06:27] <ireneshusband> all linux
[06:27] <withayanda> is it possible to use wpa wifi encryption with dapper server?  i'm only familiar with using it using networkmanager applet.
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> ireneshusband,  you just want the samba shares accessable? nothing else?
[06:28] <nomasteryoda> excellent question withayanda
[06:28] <kaz> how do you create partitions in ubuntu via GUI?
[06:28] <nomasteryoda> i asked that myself
[06:28] <nomasteryoda> but have not the answer
[06:28] <Flannel> kaz: gparted
[06:29] <withayanda> i'm sure it's just a matter of finding out what config files it alters....
[06:29] <ireneshusband> dr_willis. the laptop is running a web server with a personal wiki. that's why i don't really want to be messing with nat if i can help it. I also will need to connect through different machines at different times
[06:29] <kaz> yeah for some reason  System -> Administration -> Disks  crashes
[06:29] <nomasteryoda> withayanda, /etc/network/interfaces
[06:29] <brumm_> test
[06:29] <nomasteryoda> it seems
[06:29] <jumbers> I need to know, is audio and video in Flash out of sync on Ubuntu, or is it just my computer?
[06:29] <nomasteryoda> not here
[06:29] <nomasteryoda> mbyc
[06:29] <brendonjt> Flannel: in edgy the root account is enabled but not from a X  only terminal
[06:30] <holzmodem> where can i download Knot3?
[06:30] <dibblego> http://rafb.net/paste/results/4W2qtn77.html what does this mean?
[06:30] <eXcentra> jumbers, it happens to me too. i suspect it has something to do with flashplayer 7..
[06:30] <Flannel> brendonjt: This isn't an edgy channel
[06:30] <jumbers> Let's hope
[06:30] <jumbers> Flash 9 better be good
[06:30] <nomasteryoda> holzmodem, ask on #ubuntu+1
[06:31] <nomasteryoda> jumbers, yea it better
[06:31] <nomasteryoda> we're paying for it...
[06:31] <nomasteryoda> j/k
[06:31] <brendonjt> Flannel: yip i know, but i am running that at the moment, and just letting ya know
[06:31] <jumbers> $99.99 per license, right?
[06:31] <ireneshusband> dr_willis. what I would like would be something like when you run an emulator and the emulator has its own ip accessible to other physical boxes on the lan.
[06:31] <nomasteryoda> jumbers, lol
[06:31] <nomasteryoda> ya
[06:32] <withayanda> nomasteryoda: maybe i can take the relevant files in my current regular dapper install from /etc/network, the /etc/wpa_supplicant/ifupdown.sh script, do the symlinks?
[06:33] <seamus7_> With Synaptic: what would ''subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1" mean when I unsuccessfully attempt to uninstall a package?
[06:35] <clarence> How do I share my printer with my win xp machaine
[06:38] <bimberi> clarence: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[06:38] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, you could run vmware if you *really* want to.
[06:39] <clarence> Bimberi: I will check that out
[06:39] <seamus7_> What are some alternative methods for uninstalling a corrupt package (one that won't uninstall through Synaptic)?
[06:40] <JoseStefan> seamus7_: dpkg
[06:40] <dibblego> http://rafb.net/paste/results/4W2qtn77.html can anyone tell me what this means exactly?
[06:41] <seamus7_> oh okay
[06:41] <withayanda> is the ubuntu-server channel no longer around?
[06:41] <ireneshusband> crippsfx. ah. you misunderstand me. i don't actually want to run an emulator. i was using an emulator as an example. with emulators you can usually give the emulated machine its own ip address so that there are, in effect, 2 machines sharing the same port on the lan. i want to connect my laptop to the lan in the same way.
[06:41] <seamus7_> thx
[06:42] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, in theory you could set up a dummy ethernet interface and point it to a working ethernet device, then have the dummy receive its own IP address .... but I wouldn't have a clue about how to go about doing that.
[06:42] <bimberi> !info libapache-mod-php5
[06:42] <ubotu> Package libapache-mod-php5 does not exist in any distro I know
[06:42] <Flannel> dibblego: there's libapache2-mod-php5 or libapache-mod-php4
[06:43] <Vanique> elo
[06:43] <dibblego> Flannel, ah thanks

[06:48] <ireneshusband> crippsfx. i just want to plug the laptop into a desktop and have it behave as if it is connected directly to the lan so that it can request services from other machines and other machines can request services from it.
[06:49] <harisund> has anybody installed Ubuntu as a router? Can somebody either help me understanding NAT using iptables, or point me to some good tutorials/references for that?
[06:49] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, ah. I see. check out man route
[06:50] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, it will require configuring the PC in the middle as a router
[06:50] <harisund> JoseStefan: that's exactly what I am trying to do as well :)
[06:50] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, if you want to plug in the laptop and have it "just work" you'll also want a dhcp server running on the desktop.
[06:51] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, you could consider a mini hub/switch for the 2 PCs on that physical end of your network
[06:51] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, ...and only one cable needs to pass thru the wall
[06:52] <billybennett> Hi, how can I go back and see what updates were just installed? I just did recommended updates and it broke all my ethernet controllers and what not
[06:53] <ireneshusband> CrippsFX & JoseStefan, if I set up the machine in the middle as a DHCP server the laptop could still be directly visible to the network then?
[06:53] <JoseStefan> billybennett, today's updates were kernel updates and nvidia-glx, among others
[06:54] <burnboy> mm apt-get grabbing new kernel at the moment
[06:54] <wastrel> billybennett:  i don't know an easy way to do that - might take a look in /var/cache/apt/archives and look at the packages dated today
[06:54] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, no.
[06:54] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, DHCP server is the cherry on the top, it's not the solution
[06:54] <avramana> #ubuntu-ap
[06:54] <burnboy> anybody here using Hula Mail?
[06:54] <cafuego> Does it actually work yet?
[06:54] <Madpilot> avramana, what is #ubuntu-ap for?
[06:54] <burnboy> not sure, it's on the repos
[06:55] <billybennett> JoseStefan yeah I just did them and restarted and lost my Internet + Sound
[06:55] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, considering the setup you stated before, and the main problem, i think a new small 5-port hub/switch, will solve your problem better
[06:55] <cafuego> burnboy: Last time I tried hula, the config scripts were unable to provide me with a working setup.
[06:55] <JoseStefan> billybennett, you might be missing the restricted modules for your kernel
[06:55] <burnboy> cafuego last time I tried it was before they had any sort of administration panel..that was fun
[06:56] <withayanda> hula works, but it's still pretty minimal.  (i last played with it early Spring.)
[06:56] <burnboy> i'm installing it/updating it now though
[06:56] <wastrel> hula eh
[06:56] <JoseStefan> ireneshusband, with the additional hub/switch, the other PC is not required for the laptop to work
[06:56] <ireneshusband> crippsfx josestefan. i think you are really talking about connection sharing the windows or mac os way, have I understood that correctly? getting a switch is not an option right at the moment. i'd do better to save up for a slightly less ancient laptop. meanwhile i have stuff on the laptop and work i need to do.
[06:56] <wastrel> never heard of it.  does it sync with palm?
[06:56] <burnboy> withayanda what did you use it for?
[06:56] <billybennett> JoseStefan but everything was working fine 5 mins ago
[06:57] <burnboy> i was thinking of using hula as a hub for mail and have my mail clients all read my own server that's retrieving e-mail
[06:57] <JoseStefan> billybennett, are you using the 386 or 686 kernel? (uname -a)
[06:57] <wastrel> burnboy:  that's what i do with my desktop system, it's an imap server that collects my mail and makes it avalible to the rest of the LAN
[06:57] <withayanda> burnboy:  i was looking for a nice calendar server at the time.  from what i remember the last time i checked on hula, calendaring is still in its infancy.
[06:57] <cafuego> burnboy: I have a setup kind alike that, but using postfix/courier/mysql.
[06:58] <billybennett> JoseStefan 386
[06:58] <burnboy> cafuego yeah I've been leaning towards postfix..i do support for cPanel and we use exim and it just plain SUCKS.
[06:58] <burnboy> withayanda the calendar was a major selling point for me
[06:58] <carlos> evening
[06:58] <cafuego> cyrus does calendaring these days i think
[06:58] <JoseStefan> billybennett, try: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-386"
[06:58] <wastrel> calendaring is annoying me lately because palm sync is so broken in dapper :p
[06:59] <carlos> i was wondering if someone had the time to help me out with the ATI v8.28 drivers
[06:59] <burnboy> horde is a good competitor but it's just too bulky :) it's not web2.0! ;)
[06:59] <malv> whats the command called that will allow me to run a command on a network of machines?
[06:59] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, what we're talking about is setting up the PC you're connecting the laptop to as a router. The laptop WILL be available to the rest of the network, if you set up the router that way, but it won't be transparent. You'll have to set up your routing tables so that when request X is passed to the PC, is gets automatically forwarded to the laptop, which will have its own subnet IP
[06:59] <billybennett> JoseStefan I cannot get online at the momment
[07:00] <JoseStefan> billybennett, ok, forgot. Do you have any older kernels installed?
[07:00] <billybennett> JoseStefan I doubt it, this is a semi-fresh installation
[07:00] <withayanda> burnboy: the simple, nice user interface was the selling point for me.
[07:01] <JoseStefan> billybennett: they should show on the grub boot menu
[07:01] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, short of hooking up the laptop to an unmanaged switch, or a hub, there's no way to get the network to see it transparently ... unless you *also* set up your router to spoof the IP of the laptop ....
[07:01] <billybennett> JoseStefan then no I only have this installation I dont even get a grub its hidden
[07:01] <freakabcd> hi all
[07:01] <CrippsFX> ...in which case, the desktop just won't work ... depending on the subnet and such.
[07:02] <malv> incase anyone was wondering, dsh is the tool i was looking for
[07:02] <burnboy> on another note, does anyone here use Ubuntu for MythTV?
[07:02] <withayanda> burnboy: but if you're interested in a calendar server, i'm thinking of porting apple's calendar server (will be in leopard...already released under their open source license) and kicking its tires.
[07:02] <freakabcd> does anyone know if the a0poster class of latex is included in any package ?
[07:02] <burnboy> withayanda: i'd just as soon buy a macbook than port anything :) i've been playing with itunes 7 and it's making me think.......(shh i know this is an ubuntu channel)
[07:02] <billybennett> JoseStefan I just read there was a problem with the Sept 14 update
[07:03] <ireneshusband> crippsfx. is spoofing what happens when an emulated os is visible to the network through its host's ethernet port?
[07:03] <JoseStefan> billybennett, do you have a link for that?
[07:03] <billybennett> JoseStefan I think its only Xserver problems though
[07:03] <billybennett> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=257459
[07:04] <JoseStefan> billybennett, it may be related, as it involves the linux-restricted-modules
[07:04] <CrippsFX> ireneshusband, no. spoofing is a cracker's trick ... usually used when doing DDoS attacks, where the packets sent out from one computer to their destination contain the IP of a different computer ... but come to think about it ... spoofing wouldn't work.
[07:04] <CrippsFX> ...anyways ... it's 2:30 am ... and I have to be up in 5 hours for class. goodnight.
[07:04] <billybennett> JoseStefan http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=213420
[07:05] <withayanda> burnboy:  well, it's written in python so it won't be too difficult to port.  (dapper, winxp, and os x are all running great simultaneously via xen on my new macbook pro)  ;-)
[07:05] <JoseStefan> billybennett, ubuntu does not automatically remove older kernels, so you should be able to find and boot to your old kernel
[07:05] <billybennett> JoseStefan how do I show that in Grub escape?
[07:05] <Flannel> billybennett: yeah, or if you want, you can disable the hidden menu through your grub config
[07:06] <JoseStefan> billybennett, i'm not sure why your grub is hidden, you may be able to make it visible by looking at the grub config
[07:06] <burnboy> withayanda damn what are you running to handle all of that?
[07:06] <burnboy> withayanda oh wait, that's all on a pro? whew.
[07:06] <billybennett> so I see 2 kernels
[07:06] <JoseStefan> billybennett, i think pressing ESC will show grub, without having to edit much
[07:06] <billybennett> JoseStefan should I do recovery mode?
[07:07] <burnboy> withayanda too much for my budget
[07:07] <JoseStefan> billybennett, 2 kernels, or 1 kernel with 2 options?
[07:07] <billybennett> 1 kernel with 2 options
[07:07] <billybennett> 2.6.15-26-386
[07:07] <SS2> billybennett: thats normal, I have three options with one kernel
[07:07] <JoseStefan> billybennett, did you ever remove older kernels?
[07:08] <billybennett> JoseStefan no I have no idea how I'd do that
[07:08] <sean> Where does everyone buy their hardware from? Newegg?
[07:08] <JoseStefan> billybennett, ok let me think here, i'm gonna read the forum a bit
[07:08] <billybennett> JoseStefan okie
[07:09] <withayanda> burnboy:  yeah, i had to save up for it myself.  but i really wanted/needed to run os x legally as well as ubuntu.  but anyway.... :)
[07:09] <billybennett> Curse these Kernel Updates... *shakes fist*
[07:10] <JoseStefan> billybennett, could you re-state your initial question, maybe someone else can help too
[07:11] <billybennett> Hi, how can I go back and see what updates were just installed? I just did recommended updates and it broke all my ethernet controllers and what not
[07:11] <billybennett> I believe I did a Kernel update and everything is broke :( i was trigger happy
[07:11] <Sarra_> Does the Terminal in Ubuntu use the PING command the same way Windows' command line works? IE, if I type ping www.website.com, will it actually ping website.com?
[07:12] <withayanda> billybennet:  you could go look at your dpkg.log.  it's in /var/log
[07:12] <tom_reinke> Can someone name one mp3 codec that works really well that I can use to test if my sound is working?
[07:12] <SS2> hopfully the kernel update won't brake down my system now ...

[07:12] <bimberi> Sarra_: yes
[07:12] <Sarra_> Thanks bimberi
[07:12] <billybennett> withayanda didnt mean to write that part of the question, I figured out it has to be the -26 kernel update...
[07:12] <billybennett> :(
[07:13] <bimberi> Sarra_: np :)
[07:13] <SurfnKid> hey guys i have a quesiton
[07:13] <tom_reinke> bimberi, I just want to know one mp3 codec that is popular
[07:13] <tokenbad> is it hard to install XGL in ubuntu?
[07:13] <SurfnKid> the grub images (splashimages). Can I view them on Cli mode with an image viewer?
[07:13] <Flannel> tokenbad: not really, #ubuntu-xgl for details
[07:13] <SurfnKid> instead of viewing them on VT7 everytime
[07:13] <withayanda> tokenbad: depends on the video card you have, but for the most part, no it's not that difficult.
[07:14] <Frederick> folkswhy https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash doesnt work with image magick? sudo debi  imagemagick.changes
[07:14] <Frederick> debi: can't read imagemagick.changes!
[07:14] <bimberi> tom_reinke: sorry, i don't know which particular one
[07:14] <Flannel> SurfnKid: sure, download caca-utils, then you can use cacaview to view them in ascii
[07:14] <SurfnKid> Flannel: you rock
[07:14] <SurfnKid> thanks br
[07:14] <SurfnKid> b
[07:15] <nextstate2> I just installed ubuntu desktop. There's no gcc installed. How do I install it?
[07:15] <withayanda> speaking of sound...i never really cared about it until now, so i never bothered reading about linux & audio.  i'm totally baffled by all of this also, oss, etc.  any recommendations on Linux Audio for Dummies sites?
[07:15] <JoseStefan> billybennett, try: "cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep upgrade" but Dont paste that here
[07:15] <Flannel> nextstate2: build-essential
[07:15] <burnboy> wow, cacaview is ugly ;)
[07:16] <Flannel> burnboy: its ascii, what do you expect?  it works really well though
[07:16] <burnboy> Flannel yeah i just tested it and .. indeed it does good for what it's doing
[07:16] <billybennett> I hope I didnt miss an answer :(
[07:16] <hantoo> quick question, wonder if anyone knows it.. if i only get a essid for wireless in uni, i should enter that into /etc/networks/interfaces right? can't seem to get wireless working
[07:17] <nextstate2> Flannel: what is build-essential?
[07:17] <hantoo> nextstate2: all the necessary compilers and such
[07:17] <hantoo> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[07:17] <Flannel> nextstate2: it installs the build toolchain.  'sudo apt-get install build-essential' will install it
[07:17] <burnboy> nextstate2 make and gcc, used for compiling source files (like .tar.gz
[07:17] <JoseStefan> billybennett, try: "cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep upgrade" but Dont paste that here
[07:18] <burnboy> i wouldn't have an ubuntu installation without build-essential
[07:18] <tokenbad> withayanda, nvidia 5700 256 meg video card
[07:18] <withayanda> hantoo:  what kind of encryption is that wifi network running?  you using dapper?  gnome?  kde?
[07:18] <hantoo> withayanda: dapper, fluxbox.
[07:19] <hantoo> not quite sure what kind of encryption, they didn't say
[07:19] <withayanda> hantoo:  know if the network you're trying to connect to uses wep or wpa encryption?
[07:19] <withayanda> ah.
[07:19] <nextstate2> 'Package build-essential is not available, but is referred to by another package.' wtf?
[07:20] <JoseStefan> billybennett, that will answer the question of what was installed
[07:20] <hantoo> withayanda: not wep for sure.
[07:20] <hantoo> they wanted us to install vpn as well, if that helps
[07:20] <JoseStefan> !build-essential

[07:21] <burnboy> nextstate2 check that your /etc/apt/sources.list has universe
[07:21] <Infest> hello all
[07:21] <burnboy> nextstate2 might even be just build-essentials (don't think so though)
[07:21] <JoseStefan> !info build-essential
[07:21] <jazzrocker> hi, when i select "open file" from MySQL Query Browser, the location in the File Open dialog is never saved
[07:21] <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
[07:21] <jazzrocker> it always defaults to my home folder
[07:21] <SurfnKid> Flannel, is it on the ubuntu distro?
[07:21] <burnboy> JoseStefan well that's useful :)
[07:22] <jazzrocker> is that a MySQL thing or is that a facet of the widget set, e.g. GNOME/GTK
[07:22] <Flannel> SurfnKid: it's in universe
[07:22] <SurfnKid> caca-view?
[07:22] <Flannel> SurfnKid: no, caca-utils
[07:22] <SurfnKid> oh
[07:22] <jazzrocker> e.g. if i wanted to change that would I be changing the source for MySQL Query Browser or for GTK ?
[07:22] <Infest> can someone knows how to do custom live cd, for testing environment
[07:22] <Flannel> SurfnKid: it installs a bunch of stuff, lib-caca, and then some PoC programs
[07:22] <SurfnKid> yeah saw that
[07:22] <Infest> can someone?
[07:22] <jazzrocker> other file open dialogs however, do save my last location
[07:22] <Flannel> Infest: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[07:22] <jazzrocker> so i'm guessing it's a MySQL query browser feature?
[07:22] <billybennett> JoseStefan http://pastebin.ca/171206
[07:23] <Infest> oh thanks
[07:23] <withayanda> hantoo:  did "they" give you a password to join the wifi network?  any instructions at all?
[07:23] <SurfnKid> its great so i can preview the stuff before i change boot images
[07:23] <hantoo> No1Viking: no passwords.
[07:23] <hantoo> er
[07:23] <theTRUTH> hi everyone
[07:23] <nextstate2> !repositories

[07:23] <hantoo> withayanda: no.. no passwords. they gave instructions for windows, =\
[07:24] <JoseStefan> billybennett, i wonder if automatix could have had anythind to do with it
[07:24] <theTRUTH> how can I install the latest version of Gaim please?
[07:24] <SurfnKid> !gaim
[07:24] <ubotu> Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[07:24] <billybennett> JoseStefan I didnt install anything new from Automatix... I just have them listed in my source.list for updates
[07:24] <withayanda> hantoo:  i'm not familiar with all of the various window managers.  can you run gnome applets w/ fluxbox?
[07:25] <xuserx> withayanda: if you have the librarys
[07:25] <theTRUTH> SurfnKid: ok
[07:25] <SurfnKid> Flannel, awesome I got it running thanks
[07:25] <JoseStefan> billybennett, is the ISO you have from "6.06.1" or 6.06 ?
[07:25] <billybennett> .1
[07:25] <withayanda> thanks, xuserx.
[07:25] <billybennett> JoseStefan its the newest .1
[07:26] <JoseStefan> billybennett, ok, you will have to try a downgrade
[07:26] <billybennett> JoseStefan got a wiki? :)
[07:26] <OofCZer0> Flannel ok i did all that stuff you told me to do and it wouldnt let me do it, so i tried reinstalling, TWICE, and then tried(to overwrite the windows bootloader), and it says partition filesystem not correct or somethign along those lines
[07:26] <OofCZer0> Flannel any suggestions on what to do now?
[07:26] <hantoo> withayanda: s'pose so.
[07:26] <JoseStefan> billybennett, try this syntax: sudo apt-get install (pkgname)=(version)
[07:26] <Flannel> OofCZer0: er, try the 'grub super disk' thing, on that page.  it does... basically one thing, and that is install grub.
[07:27] <JoseStefan> billybennett, i suggest you put all packages in one line
[07:27] <Flannel> OofCZer0: next thing to do is to reinstall ubuntu
[07:27] <JoseStefan> billybennett, just put a space and the next pkgname=version
[07:27] <OofCZer0> ive reinstalled ubuntu 3 times now
[07:27] <withayanda> hantoo:  the only reason that i ask is because configuring wireless is MUCH easier using the networkmanager applet for gnome, or knetworkmanager on kde.
[07:27] <Flannel> OofCZer0: since you haven't done much with it, no big deal.  but, I honestly have no idea what's going on
[07:27] <OofCZer0> flannel ive reinstalled ubuntu 3 times now
[07:27] <kintaro0e> hello everyone..need advice..do i need to make 2 servers for my dns to run: 1 for public networks and 1 for private networks?if we have a domain hosted at ultradns.com like foo.com and i want to make a internal dns server like us.foo.com..is it posible.?
[07:27] <Flannel> OofCZer0: sorry, no idea.  You might try filing a bug report
[07:28] <foo> Blah. Why is it a such a hassle to change the fonts in xterm? I've tried xfontsel ... and I run xterm -font .... then the line that xfontsel .. and it works, but the font looks like it is in bold or something, but it shouldn't be.
[07:28] <hantoo> withayanda: so i've heard. i'll look into it, thanks.
[07:28] <tom_reinke> Flannel, Ok, so I've got everything working and I'm looking at the comprehensive sound guide on the forums.. now I go to the first step and it has my soundcard listed yet I get no sound.. help?
[07:28] <JoseStefan> billybennett, luckily, the oldversions will be in your apt cache :/
[07:28] <billybennett> JoseStefan am I listing the new ones I installed that messed me up?
[07:28] <Flannel> tom_reinke: sorry, I have no clue when it comes to sound ;)
[07:28] <OofCZer0> Flannel but do you tink the grub super disk will work
[07:28] <JoseStefan> billybennett, you will be using the old version numbers
[07:28] <Flannel> OofCZer0: well, everything else should have worked... so, I have no idea.
[07:28] <iceman24k> how can you adjust the icon size on the desktop ?
[07:29] <tom_reinke> Flannel, Argh, oh well.
[07:29] <OofCZer0> billybennett u there???
[07:29] <SEN5421> I am experiencing a system hang often; I think it it related to my graphics card : ATI Radeon 9250 128mb ; I am using the ATI Driver 9600 ; Anyone know what the cause of the issue is? How to fix it?
[07:29] <tom_reinke> Can anyone help me with sound?
[07:29] <billybennett> JoseStefan I'm a bit confused... what am I doing? installing old packages or what
[07:30] <iceman24k> is there a way to adjust the icon size on the desktop in gnome
[07:30] <JoseStefan> billybennett, installing the old kernels
[07:30] <billybennett> ok
[07:30] <OofCZer0> billybennett u there???
[07:30] <billybennett> JoseStefan so I'm doing sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.15-26-386
[07:30] <hantoo> withayanda: i shall bring the problem to the techguys in uni :D
[07:30] <billybennett> OofCZer0 yes but I'm in a bit of a bind
[07:30] <JoseStefan> billybennett, not exactly. check with OofCZer0
[07:31] <OofCZer0> billybennett ok let me know when yo get a min
[07:31] <OofCZer0> k
[07:31] <billybennett> JoseStefan I meant to put 25 instead of 26
[07:31] <SEN5421> iceman24k, you should be able to right click a desktop icon and then select "Stretch Icon" and then change the size with your mouse
[07:31] <SEN5421> anyone here experienced with debugging ATI driver issues?
[07:32] <billybennett> JoseStefan it wont let me install since I dont have the internet
[07:32] <JoseStefan> billybennett, the old and new are both 26, but one has .46 and the other .47
[07:32] <iceman24k> there a way to set all icons smaller ?
[07:32] <SEN5421> I don't know how to fix this issue I have with my Ubuntu system hanging ( I think it is because of the ATI 9600 driver )
[07:32] <withayanda> iceman24k:  do you just want to resize one or a few icons or all of your icons in general?
[07:32] <JoseStefan> billybennett, luckily the old package is in your apt cache and wont need to download
[07:33] <iceman24k> all general
[07:33] <billybennett> JoseStefan I tried linux-image-2.6.15.25-386 but it says blah blah blah new packages and trys to look on the internet for them
[07:33] <iceman24k> cant get my resolution higher :( so i need to shring the icons
[07:33] <JoseStefan> billybennett, something like: sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.15-26-386=2.6.15-26.46
[07:34] <SEN5421> I guess no one knows...
[07:34] <SEN5421> exit
[07:34] <glick> hi
[07:34] <JoseStefan> billybennett, you have to also put the resticted modules and the version on the same line
[07:34] <billybennett> JoseStefan I know its suppose to be 2.6.15-25-386 but.. I dont how to find that info on the part after =
[07:34] <iceman24k> i'm at 1152x768 but would like a higher resolution, but after about 5 retries to get it, i will settle for smaller icons
[07:35] <JoseStefan> billybennett, check with: cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep upgrade
[07:35] <glick> i checked out that book Ubuntu Unleashed
[07:35] <glick> i was kina disappointed
[07:35] <billybennett> JoseStefan that command tells me the one I dont want though
[07:36] <withayanda> iceman24k: you'll have to change the details of whatever theme you're using....  you have to find that theme's index.theme file and change a value in it.
[07:36] <JoseStefan> billybennett, the output of that should be: ugrade pkgname oldver newver
[07:36] <JoseStefan> upgrade*
[07:36] <iceman24k> withayanda ill note that thanks
[07:37] <billybennett> JoseStefan hold on I got the wireless to work. Ill make a pastebin and could you tell me what to type
[07:37] <nextstate2> ok, now I'm a happy camper. The universe in my sources.list did the trick. Now to rebuild the kernel. Thanks guys!
[07:37] <JoseStefan> billybennett, if you got the wireless to work, doesnt that solve the problem?
[07:38] <toaks> is anyone familliar with scratchbox?
[07:38] <billybennett> JoseStefan no my wired ethernet is still broke
[07:38] <JoseStefan> billybennett, it might be some settings that need to be checked, and not the kernel
[07:38] <wastrel> iceman24k:  http://gnomesupport.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1975
[07:39] <toaks> billy - whats wrong with the ethernet connection. ?
[07:39] <toaks> have you configured your ip address.
[07:40] <LookTJ> is there ways i experice with edgy or do i have to wait for release?
[07:40] <withayanda> wastrel:  thanks for that!  here i've been doing it the hard way all along.
[07:40] <JoseStefan> toaks, update broke his ethernet controllers
[07:41] <wastrel> withayanda:  i haven't tested it ;] 
[07:41] <wastrel> LookTJ:  you can burn a livecd and try it that way
[07:41] <withayanda> i just did.  that icon zoom option does as advertised.
[07:41] <toaks> ah ok.
[07:42] <LookTJ> where do i download the iso, wastrel?
[07:42] <JoseStefan> billybennett, i suggest rechecking for "new" updates using the wireless connection
[07:42] <toaks> so your ethernet controlles are broken - and ifconfig eth0 ip_address doesnt bring it back ?
[07:43] <JoseStefan> billybennett, and re-check your networks settings again
[07:43] <toaks> yep.
[07:44] <wastrel> LookTJ:  i dunno, ask about edgy on #ubuntu+1 :] 
[07:45] <billybennett> JoseStefan and toaks It broke my gnome-network-manager
[07:45] <JoseStefan> billybennett: what did?
[07:45] <jared777> Never ask a blonde to replace a CPU  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aY_CidIS8YM&eurl=
[07:45] <JoseStefan> billybennett: the update?
[07:45] <billybennett> JoseStefan and toaks with a bunch of ifconfigs and what not Ive got it online... I guess the kernel update broke gnome-network-manager
[07:46] <jared777> That is some of the funniest shit i have seen I feel for that guy
[07:46] <billybennett> JoseStefan its working now but says its still disconnected
[07:46] <toaks> ok - so i take it that u are using this thing called gnome-network manager to manage your network.
[07:47] <toaks> so have you configured your network using the command line before?
[07:47] <Fnyar> is anyone else having problems with the us.archive.ubuntu.com apt repository?
[07:47] <LookTJ> how do i get the edgy iso so i can test it
[07:47] <billybennett> toaks yes and no.. I've learned how to do it from using Backtrack a Slackware live cd.. but I use gnome-network-manager for the WPA2 support
[07:47] <printk> 
[07:47] <JoseStefan> Fnyar, it's a bit slow
[07:48] <toaks> yep ok - yep. got it - so doing it through command line sorted it then.
[07:48] <toaks> thats the way ive always done it.
[07:48] <gbrent> anyone know how to reconfigure the xserver in suse from command line? no one is answering in suse?
[07:48] <billybennett> toaks whats the correct way to do DHCP.. I learned dhcpcd but that doesnt work in Ubuntu
[07:48] <JoseStefan> !xconfig
[07:48] <ubotu> xconfig is To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[07:49] <gbrent> that does not work in suse
[07:49] <Fnyar> JoseStefan: apt just stalls if I use those sources, but I can get there via the web. Just archive.ubuntu.com works though
[07:49] <toaks> yeah - dunno the answer to that one actually - cause installing breezy 5.10 i set the option in the install.
[07:49] <relbs> If I want to add a custom route setting (e.g. route add -net ...) and have it activate with a network interface, where should I put it?
[07:49] <Fnyar> still somewhat slow though
[07:49] <JoseStefan> Fnyar, my apt is slow, but works, just takes a long time
[07:49] <billybennett> Well how can I file a bug report for gnome-network-manager cause I need my fix :P
[07:49] <toaks> then it keeps working from then on.
[07:50] <billybennett> fix as in drug reference :)
[07:50] <JoseStefan> !bug
[07:50] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu, please report it at http://bugs.ubuntu.com
[07:50] <Fnyar> JoseStefan: is this archive normally slow? I've recently switched from Debian to Ubuntu Server
[07:50] <JoseStefan> Fnyar, no
[07:51] <weedar> I want to use "remote desktop connection" to remotely control my desktop, but it is not logged into it's windowmanager. Is there someway I can remotely log it in, via ssh or similar so I can use rdc?
[07:51] <LookTJ> im downloading edgy
[07:52] <LookTJ> is there any others to burn besides a cd?
[07:52] <LookTJ> i don'
[07:52] <LookTJ> i dont want to burn to a cd*
[07:52] <JoseStefan> How can I set default ports for gnome-btdownload? Is there a config file?
[07:55] <LookTJ> anyone here answer my question please?
[07:56] <cafuego> LookTJ: How else were you planning on installing from an ISO?
[07:57] <LookTJ> I want to try edgy but i don't feel like burning a cd
[07:57] <bungopolis> I'm configuring Samba on a dapper server system. I have enabled Unix password sync in the smb.conf - do I need to do anything else to enable Unix user authentication to work with samba?
[07:57] <cafuego> LookTJ: Why are you downloading it then?
[07:58] <cafuego> LookTJ: You cna run vmware I guess and look at Edgy in a vm. That'll be dead slow, though.
[07:58] <LookTJ> can i setup the iso onto a usb and install onto the harddrive?
[07:58] <cafuego> With syslinux, yup.
[07:59] <JoseStefan> LookTJ, for edgy help try #ubuntu+1
[07:59] <gbrent> !windows
[07:59] <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
[07:59] <gbrent> hehe
[07:59] <elephanthunter> If I wrote an html socket layer to a GPL program that communicated data structures with my non-GPL commercial web application (without distributing the source or binaries of either, just using the generated html on my site), would that violate the GPL?
[07:59] <xukun_> is't possible to net-install ubuntu dapper so I have the latest kernel ?
[07:59] <LookTJ> !syslinux
[07:59] <ubotu> syslinux: Bootloader for Linux/i386 using MS-DOS floppies. In component main, is optional. Version 3.11-3ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 203 kB, installed size 492 kB (Only available for i386 amd64)
[07:59] <LookTJ> ok that didn't help me ubotu -_-
[07:59] <wastrel> that's a headscratcher
[08:00] <wastrel> i'm guessing the answer is no - you're not distributing the code so gpl doesn't apply
[08:00] <bimberi_> !install
[08:00] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[08:00] <JoseStefan> yay #ubuntu has 7 times as many users as ##windows, we win
[08:00] <wastrel> and if you're serving html, you're distributing the code of that, by definition
[08:00] <hantoo> lol
[08:00] <bimberi_> LookTJ: check that Installation help page (above).  There's info on usb install via that
[08:01] <wastrel> er. code or binary
[08:01] <elephanthunter> Ok, just making sure there were enough loopholes to keep my backend covered.
[08:01] <BHSPitLappy> hi all
[08:02] <LookTJ> i guess ill wait til octcober
[08:02] <elephanthunter> wastrel: would you consider it immoral?
[08:03] <BHSPitLappy> when I start Limewire, my whole gnome/x session freezes at "Loading Core Components"... I'm using blackdown java, and this HAS worked fine before.
[08:04] <Maje> BHSPitLappy: Do other Java applications work? Have you tried Frostwire?
[08:04] <wastrel> elephanthunter:  personally, no - but i'm not a purist (i have universe enabled ;).  if you're not distributing code or binary derived from the gpl code, i don't think gpl applies.
[08:05] <BHSPitLappy> Maje, maybe, no. Why should I need to try frostwire? Limewire has worked perfectly on this comp before, and does work under dapper on my desktop as well.
[08:06] <elephanthunter> Isn't Limewire bundled spyware?
[08:06] <bitchslapper> elephanthunter: not anymore I believe
[08:07] <elephanthunter> Oh, they released it under the GPL.
[08:07] <Maje> BHSPitLappy: I'm just trying to diagnose the problem. FrostWire is a fork of LimeWire that uses Java. If it worked, then we know the problem is with Limewire, not with Java. Else, we can start thinking Java is the problem.
[08:07] <bitchslapper> BHSPitLappy: probably, just to make sure you're jre hasn't screwed up
[08:08] <BHSPitLappy> erm
[08:09] <BHSPitLappy> in the description, it says it needs the Sun Java runtime
[08:09] <BHSPitLappy> does that mean I have to use Sun as opposed to blackdown... or can I disregard that
[08:10] <Maje> BHSPitLappy: As far as I know, blackdown is the about the same as sun's official jre
[08:10] <InvisiblePinkUni> I am trying to get my wireless card working on ubuntu, installed ndiswrapper and the network card recognizes the wireless networks, but when i do "sudo ifup wlan0" i get "no dhcp offers received" , the wep key is typed correctly. Help please...
[08:11] <InvisiblePinkUni> !wireless
[08:11] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:11] <BHSPitLappy> InvisiblePinkUni, network-manager-gnome is useful to have
[08:11] <BHSPitLappy> frostwire's working.
[08:11] <marshall> hey guys
[08:11] <memn0ch> dhcpd wlan0 also helps
[08:11] <marshall> is there any way to make kde apps look like gnome apps?
[08:12] <Maje> sure, marshall, use gnome instead of kde
[08:12] <wastrel> give them the same theme
[08:12] <InvisiblePinkUni> BHSPitLappy: i am using wifi-radar as well... it shows the wireless networks
[08:12] <wastrel> redhat did that iirc
[08:12] <marshall> Maje: hahaha...
[08:12] <elephanthunter> Maje: I don't think using gnome changes the look of KDE apps :P
[08:13] <Maje> elephanthunter: Stop proving me wrong
[08:13] <LookTJ> !tell looktj about firefox
[08:13] <marshall> elephanthunter: you know how when you use kubuntu you have the option of making gnome apps adobt the kde widgets and color scheme
[08:13] <Maje> BHSPitLappy: Tells me the problem is with LimeWire. Did you install from source, and has it worked before?
[08:13] <marshall> elephanthunter: is there anything like that for kde apps
[08:14] <wastrel> marshall:  you can give them the same theme, redhat has themes that are identical for kde and gnome
[08:15] <elephanthunter> There is no current way to change the widgets, but you can change the theme, like wastel said.
[08:15] <marshall> wastrel: o, thanks
[08:15] <Maje> This would be why I use GNOME. KDE's widgets annoy the heck out of me =P
[08:15] <wastrel> ditto
[08:15] <marshall> yeah same
[08:15] <weedar> Is there any way to remotely login with kdm on a machine without starting a new session like FreeNX does?
[08:15] <BHSPitLappy> Maje, I installed it from a package, and it's worked perfectly before. just as frostwire's working now. in fact, frostwire even picked up my incomplete downloads I had in limewire
[08:16] <gbrent> whats the command to load gui program from another system over ssh or whatever?
[08:16] <ompaul> !frostwire
[08:16] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[08:16] <Maje> BHSPitLappy: That's very odd. Try doing a complete reinstall (except for downloads, of course) and see if it works. Worse comes to worst, you still have Frostwire until you figure the problem out
[08:17] <wastrel> gbrent:  ssh -X <other system>  then type the name of the command
[08:17] <BHSPitLappy> Maje, I've had this exact situation before. I don't remember how it got remedied.
[08:17] <ompaul> gbrent, ssh -X user@machine programname
[08:17] <william__> JoseStefan, its me billybennett I went ahead and filed a bug report
[08:17] <bhav> anyone knows a ipv6 supported TFTPD server ????
[08:17] <gbrent> wastrel: is other system an ip, host name or either?
[08:17] <wastrel> either is fine
[08:17] <JoseStefan> william__, ok good
[08:18] <gbrent> ompaul: does anything have to be setup on the other computer? does gnome/kde matter?
[08:18] <ompaul> gbrent, you need openssh-server
[08:18] <gbrent> just the ability to ssh in right?
[08:18] <rredd4> need help with kguitar, someone please?
[08:18] <ompaul> gbrent, ohh yeah and program name needs to exist :)
[08:19] <gbrent> hehe

[08:21] <Adross> kk, sorry
[08:21] <gbrent> ompaul: does the program have to exsist on both ends?
[08:21] <lewix> that's weird
[08:21] <wastrel> only on the remote side
[08:21] <lewix> I can't get irc to work on windows
[08:21] <gbrent> go figure

[08:23] <ompaul> gbrent, no you are pulling it from box one to box two
[08:23] <rredd4> kguitar users?  need help
[08:23] <gbrent> wastrel: I have root disabled for ssh and I have to su - over (suse machine) anyway to login as my user but then launch the program as root?
[08:24] <ompaul> rredd4, I don't use it, ask your question and maybe someone will find they know the answer, that could be anything from compile through middle c or something else
[08:24] <ompaul> gbrent, bring a terminal back to meet you
[08:25] <kads> how can i speed up network printing from winxp
[08:25] <gbrent> hehe good thinking
[08:25] <cdubya> I keep getting this weird stuff happening with openoffice.org.....everytime I try to open this particular doc (it's an excel file), oo.org acts like it's trying to open it with Writer/Web......but I want it to open with Calc.....this is frustrating me to no end and I'd really like to completely remove oo.org and all the config files and EVERYTHING and reinstall it fresh so that maybe that will resolve the issue.....any suggestio
[08:25] <ompaul> kads, that is the second time you have asked that inside two minutes, please wait 15 or so - let new people read it thanks
[08:26] <ketsugi> cdubya: sudo dpkg-reconfigure openoffice
[08:26] <ketsugi> maybe that will work?
[08:26] <bhav> anyone knows a ipv6 supported TFTPD server\
[08:26] <kads> ompaul: srry
[08:26] <rredd4> Using Kguitar.  When I open a gp4 (guitar pro, which is supported) file and play it, it says:  error opening midi device.  I have libtse3 installed.
[08:26] <cdubya> ketsugi, if that will work, I'll jump for joy....but I'm a pessimist when it comes to these things....I'll try it though.
[08:26] <JoseStefan> How can I set default ports for gnome-btdownload? Is there a config file?
[08:27] <BHSPitLappy> Maje, good news, now frostwire freezes at the same place.
[08:27] <wastrel> JoseStefan:  there's command line switches that let you set the ports... i dunno about a config file -man page doesn't mention one.
[08:27] <Maje> BHSPitLappy: Hit your JRE with a mallet, or poke it with a pointy stick.
[08:28] <JoseStefan> wastrel, i know that part
[08:29] <Madpilot> E_r_i_K, kindly stop nickspamming. Thank you.
[08:31] <M_Fatih> my XGL server crahses randomly :(
[08:32] <ompaul> M_Fatih, that is beta software please take your question to #ubuntu-xgl
[08:32] <christianp> hi all
[08:32] <gbrent> wastrel, ompaul: ssh -X root@192.168.4.137 kate ---command not found but kate is working on the remote computer and I enabled root
[08:32] <stepner> I am trying to use Festival, and I get "Linux: can't open /dev/dsp" "#<Utterance 0xb74c2a88>"
[08:32] <BHSPitLappy> Maje, I think I've traced the problem down to the theme I was using, believe it or not.
[08:32] <M_Fatih> ompaul, hmm. thanks
[08:32] <BHSPitLappy> and I really like the theme :(
[08:32] <christianp> someone can help me in make ryhthmbox working with mp3? i installed libxine-extracodec, what other?
[08:33] <Maje> BHSPitLappy: Odd, if it loaded at all, I would not have suspected that.
[08:33] <ompaul> !mp3 > christianp
[08:33] <ompaul> christianp, please check out the message from ubotu
[08:33] <wastrel> gbrent:  try the full path to kate - the root account prolly doesn't have it in its command path
[08:33] <gbrent> christianp: ubuntuguide.org has copy paste commands that make it work... b ut "listen" is 10 times better than rythembox
[08:33] <gbrent> ahh
[08:34] <christianp> thanks ompaul gbrent :)
[08:34] <gbrent> np
[08:34] <E_r_i_K> Madpilot: My apologies, I was not nickspamming, but trying to find an unregistered nick from which I could register an unrelated channel.  Sorry for the screen clutter.
[08:35] <gbrent> !rules > gbrent
[08:35] <BHSPitMonkey> Maje, ok, scratch that theory.
[08:35] <maxamillion> any word on a wine package for amd64 in edgy?
[08:35] <Madpilot> E_r_i_K, I wondered if that's what you were doing - screen clutter from that sort of thing on an 800+ user channel is an issue, though.
[08:36] <BHSPitMonkey> maxamillion, you can use wine on amd64 using a chroot. google it.
[08:36] <BHSPitMonkey> (and flash)
[08:36] <christianp> gbrent: where can i find "listen"? i can't find it in multiverse
[08:36] <maxamillion> BHSPitMonkey: flash sucks, but thanks for the info about wine :)
[08:36] <gbrent> christianp: ill get you the repo
[08:37] <RMorris84> i installed xubuntu-desktop and now i want to get my old ubuntu log in screen or maybe help on changing it to something else also maybe?
[08:37] <gbrent> christianp: deb http://theli.free.fr/packages/ dapper listen
[08:37] <christianp> gbrent: thanks again ;)
[08:37] <Maje> Anyone know how to get AAC support in Listen beta .5?
[08:38] <gbrent> christianp: It even auto finds lyrics for the song you are listeng to. No adds on it either
[08:39] <gbrent> np
[08:45] <red> .
[08:45] <red> I just installed.
[08:45] <tom_reinke> Can someone please help me with sound? I've tried the Comprehensive Sound thing on the forums and it still isn't working
[08:45] <alus> how can I set ulimit -n ?
[08:45] <red> Just switched from windows CraP
[08:45] <alus> "ulimit -n 10000" says "Operation not permitted"
[08:46] <red> Wow.
[08:46] <red> -n
[08:46] <tom_reinke> red, congrats, welcome to the dark side
[08:46] <Montag_> red: Grats.
[08:46] <alus> but "sudo ulimit -n 10000" says "command not found"
[08:46] <red> ulimit -n 10000
[08:46] <tourach> apt-get install sudo
[08:46] <alus> sudo: ulimit: command not found
[08:46] <alus> sudo is installed
[08:46] <red> trying to do something under Root?
[08:47] <alus> well if I could set -n any other way, I'd be happy to do that
[08:47] <marshall> hey guys
[08:47] <tom_reinke> Is anyone here good with audio?
[08:47] <wastrel> ulimit is a bash builtin
[08:47] <red> OHyes.
[08:47] <wastrel> so you can't sudo it
[08:47] <red> Let me guess
[08:47] <memn0ch> alus: provide the full path, like sudo /usr/bin/anything -n bla
[08:47] <red> No output in your speakers?
[08:47] <marshall> whats teh command for when you want to switch from sun java to blackdown again?
[08:47] <tom_reinke> red, can you help? I'm on a laptop
[08:47] <printk> there is no path to ulimit
[08:47] <alus> memn0ch: ulimit is a built in bash command
[08:47] <red> Sure.
[08:48] <printk> its like sudo cd
[08:48] <printk> no path to cd
[08:48] <memn0ch> oh, I didn't know that, thx
[08:48] <alus> memn0ch: `which ulimit` is blank
[08:48] <red> right click the speaker (GNOME)
[08:48] <red> choose preferences.
[08:48] <tom_reinke> red, the sound mixer?
[08:48] <red> then at the top there click Edit.
[08:48] <tom_reinke> red, I'm using xubuntu
[08:48] <red> oh...
[08:48] <Montag_> Anyone know where to post XGL bugs/problems?
[08:48] <red> well
[08:48] <tom_reinke> so, if you know any command line stuff that'd be helpful.
[08:49] <red> how ever you get to the screen that shows you each sound device and the volumes for it,.
[08:49] <tom_reinke> alsamixer
[08:49] <tom_reinke> k, there.
[08:49] <cdubya> man, that's crazy.......i've not ONCE had oo.org not be able to handle an excel format file.....guess I found one it wouldn't....bummer
[08:49] <red> ok
[08:49] <gbrent> my old computer has no markings for mouse and keyboard. Is it possible that i have them switched but the keyboard still works?
[08:49] <red> edit should be an option
[08:49] <silents> hey - im having trouble installing ubuntu desktop.. i think its because it runs off the live cd too slow. is there another way to install it?
[08:49] <tom_reinke> red, nevermind, I'm doing this all through the command line.
[08:50] <red> just add all the available sound things.
[08:50] <tom_reinke> There is no GUI for this. which is why I've been without sound ever since the install
[08:50] <red> Ohhh
[08:50] <Madpilot> cdubya, the OOo bug teams would probably like a copy of your excel file, if you can share it
[08:50] <red> Well hold omn a sec
[08:50] <tom_reinke> No one has been able to help me.
[08:50] <OofCZer0> billybennett u still there??
[08:50] <red> ok,
[08:51] <tom_reinke> red, I know xubuntu sees the card: it tells me so: Card: ESS Maestro3 PCI.. Its just that I get no output.
[08:51] <red> Thru the Alsa Mixer
[08:51] <red> The sound mixer.
[08:51] <JoseStefan> billybennett == william__
[08:51] <cdubya> Madpilot, don't suspect the users want me to share it, or I would gladly
[08:51] <red> I had thre same problem.
[08:51] <JoseStefan> OofCZer0 ^^^
[08:51] <red> add track "front"
[08:51] <OofCZer0> JoseStefan yes
[08:52] <Madpilot> cdubya, fair enough - see if you can yank the private info in it and keep the 'it breaks in OOo' "feature" - construct a test case file, in other words
[08:52] <red> and "center"
[08:52] <red> Where are your speakers?
[08:52] <cdubya> Madpilot, weird how it happened though....was at work earlier today, did a table dump in phpMyAdmin like I always do.....and like I said, I've never had ANY issue with files that phpMyAdmin has handed me.....
[08:52] <red> Because it has nothing to do with the card.
[08:52] <tom_reinke> red, I.. am.. on a laptop
[08:52] <tom_reinke> red, the speakers are on the left and right
[08:52] <red> ...:P i forgot.
[08:52] <red> So yeah.
[08:52] <cdubya> Madpilot, will do.....as soon as I finish my week of school tomorrow perhaps.....been a long week on studies and work......
[08:52] <cdubya> :)
[08:53] <red> Do you know how to configure Tracks?
[08:53] <tom_reinke> red, I could take them out if you'd like *Gets screwdriver*
[08:53] <red> You would need to add "front"
[08:53] <OofCZer0> JoseStefan!!!
[08:53] <Madpilot> cdubya, been there, done that ;)
[08:53] <cdubya> Madpilot, yep
[08:53] <tom_reinke> red, I don't know how to add tracks, please explain?
[08:53] <cdubya> Madpilot, kinda stinks at the time, but it's worth it
[08:53] <red> ...
[08:53] <JoseStefan> OofCZer0: billybennett == william__
[08:53] <red> i may have to get back to you, wife wants to go to bed.
[08:53] <OofCZer0> billybennett where r u?
[08:53] <JoseStefan> OofCZer0: i pointed up :/
[08:53] <red> Tell ya what, my MSN is red.t@mac.com
[08:54] <cdubya> Madpilot, it's weird though....I dumped a table on this machine, but did it as a csv and oo.org handled it perfectly.
[08:54] <cdubya> heh
[08:54] <tom_reinke> red, thanks.. but I don't have MSN, I'll email you?
[08:54] <cdubya> heh
[08:54] <red> I had the same problem and all you have to do is get the Linux to point to the right incoming "Track"
[08:54] <red> Email me there, that'd be fine.
[08:54] <red> I'll do some researh for you.
[08:54] <tom_reinke> red, thanks a lot. I look forward to hearing music
[08:54] <OofCZer0> ok i have a problem that is starting to agitate me alot and i need someone who knows everything about this to help me plzzzz
[08:54] <red> What laptop?
[08:54] <OofCZer0> ok i have a problem that is starting to agitate me alot and i need someone who knows everything about this to help me plzzzz
[08:54] <NeoChaosX> Hm
[08:54] <tom_reinke> red, its a Dell Latitude...
[08:54] <red> alienware Area 51m
[08:54] <red> :P
[08:54] <red> Oh ok.
[08:55] <red> I'm running on a vaio.
[08:55] <tom_reinke> red, hold on, lemme find the model
[08:55] <cdubya> OofCZero, did you ask anyone about your problem yet?
[08:55] <OofCZer0> cdubya no
[08:55] <tom_reinke> red, I just got this laptop today, I was struggling with sound on my 1997 IBM until the HD finally died yesterday
[08:55] <red> Damn, Sorry
[08:56] <red> Gotta go to bed
[08:56] <tom_reinke> red, its a Latitude C810
[08:56] <red> C810.
[08:56] <red> gotacha
[08:56] <cdubya> OofCZero, formulate your question, stating as clearly as you can the issue, related apps, etc.....then wait and see who responds.....
[08:56] <tom_reinke> thanks a lot red
[08:56] <red> no prob.
[08:56] <red> try and get help from...
[08:56] <red> oh yeah.
[08:56] <red> Well kjeep asking, and maybe someone will know.
[08:56] <red> until tommorow.
[08:56] <red> Bye.
[08:56] <tom_reinke> red, lol.. I've been asking for 2 weeks
[08:56] <tom_reinke> XD
[08:57] <OofCZer0> cdubya i have been trying to install ubuntu all nite, and for some reason its not working. ive been on here all day asking questions as to why its not installing correctly, and ive been directed to a bunch of "how to" site, ive even printed them and followed them verbatim, step by step, and after the installation, i reboot and it just boots into windows, it doesnt give me the dual boot option to choose which one i want it just chooses
[08:58] <OofCZer0> ive tried pressing esc numerous times that doesnt work
[08:58] <mythril> anyone here run freenx?
[08:58] <mythril> nm, bad question :)
[08:58] <cdubya> OofCZero, so you ran the install.....did it finish completely?
[08:58] <wastrel> what's freenx?
[08:58] <OofCZer0> ive done some grub things and the file directorys arent even there to go to
[08:58] <OofCZer0> cdubya yes it did
[08:58] <mythril> anyone here run freenx with the intention of using it as a vpn of sorts?
[08:58] <mythril> wastrel: freenx is like terminal services for linux
[08:59] <cdubya> OofCZero, "some grub things" isn't really descriptive.....can you tell me exactly what you've tried
[08:59] <gentix> how do i manually specify a resolution? the computer can't seem to realize i have a widescreen monitor
[08:59] <cdubya> OofCZero, by the way, did you have windows on the box before you installed ubuntu?
[09:00] <E_r_i_K> gentix: manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf with your favorite text editor as root for starters
[09:00] <wastrel> backup a working copy first
[09:00] <mythril> I am having troubles using freenx, when I connect the connection always times out after authentication
[09:00] <mythril> any ideas?
[09:00] <E_r_i_K> yes, wastrel is correct
[09:00] <OofCZer0> cdubya, i was directed to a site on how to fix some boot problems, and it gave some commands to change some things, but when i typed the commands it was like file system type not correct
[09:00] <gentix> E_r_i_K, okay, and now?
[09:01] <OofCZer0> cdubya, yes windows was on here before i put ubuntu
[09:01] <cdubya> OofCZero, I can't really even try to help if you don't let me know what exactly you did......the best thing I can do at that point is guess......
[09:01] <E_r_i_K>  gentix, in my xorg.conf it is like     DefaultDepth    24
[09:01] <E_r_i_K>     SubSection     "Display"
[09:01] <E_r_i_K>         Depth       24
[09:01] <E_r_i_K>         Modes      "1280x1024"
[09:01] <E_r_i_K>     EndSubSection
[09:02] <E_r_i_K> add additional resolutions seperated by commas to the Modes section
[09:02] <xanda> why doesn't ubuntu need anti-virus?
[09:02] <Madpilot> E_r_i_K, next time, use a pastebin, please
[09:02] <E_r_i_K> in my case, both of my displays are fixed-resolution panels
[09:02] <gentix> alright
[09:02] <Madpilot> xanda, because there really aren't any Linux viruses
[09:02] <xanda> why
[09:02] <xanda> don't they make them
[09:03] <marshall> whats teh command for when you want to switch from sun java to blackdown again?
[09:03] <OofCZer0> cdubya, ok i go into terminal and type, "sudo grub", then type "root (hd1,2)" and im supposed to type setup hd(1) afterthat, but i cant get past the root step, it tells me that my filesystem is not correct
[09:03] <JoseStefan> E_r_i_K, gentix: syntax for modes is space separated, not commas
[09:03] <cdubya> marshall, sudo update-alternatives --java ?
[09:03] <Madpilot> xanda, because the way Linux is laid out, viruses would have a much harder time than they do in Windows
[09:03] <Madpilot> xanda, and because Windows is a bigger target
[09:03] <E_r_i_K> ty, jose
[09:03] <xanda> kool
[09:03] <Morgan> I need someone to guide me through Ati drivers 8.28.8 install for Ubuntu 6.06 64-bit ! Anyone ?
[09:03] <xanda> what about spyware
[09:04] <Healot> !ati
[09:04] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:04] <JoseStefan> E_r_i_K, gentix: eg    Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[09:04] <Madpilot> xanda, same deal - Linux isn't a target (yet)
[09:04] <cdubya> OofCZero, can you boot the CD and get to a Terminal and try to run grub-install --recheck ?
[09:04] <xanda> ok
[09:04] <xanda> ty
[09:04] <JoseStefan> E_r_i_K, gentix: alternativly use !xconfig
[09:04] <JoseStefan> !xconfig
[09:04] <ubotu> xconfig is To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[09:04] <Flannel> xanda: and again, the way the users are separated, its a bit more difficult
[09:04] <Madpilot> xanda, plus, you can't hide spyware inside open-source apps the way they're hidden in closed-source Windows stuff
[09:04] <gentix> how can i force a resolution change without editing configs, just, "use this resolution now"
[09:04] <gentix> or is that not possible?
[09:04] <xanda> but what if someone made one?
[09:05] <xanda> that could do it?
[09:05] <Flannel> xanda: do what?
[09:05] <xanda> what viruss do
[09:05] <Healot> Madpilot: technically you can; but somebody can read your code though :)
[09:05] <Shadowpillar> xanda: 1) most virii need root access to do any worthwhile damage, 2) there are rootkits, but again, you have to be running tons of server stuff off your desktop that have vulnerabilities
[09:05] <Madpilot> Healot, I said you can't *hide* spyware, didn't say it couldn't be coded ;)
[09:05] <JoseStefan> !virus > xanda
[09:06] <OofCZer0> cdubya, explain what your asking me to do, this is my first day with all this
[09:06] <ootput> gentix: if you didn't make provisions for it (different resolutions, modelines) in your xorg.conf, you won't be able to adjust it
[09:06] <gentix> brb
[09:06] <cdubya> OofCZero, boot the install CD.....open a Terminal window.....type sudo grub-install --recheck
[09:06] <OofCZer0> just like that "suso grub-install --recheck"??
[09:06] <cdubya> at least I think that's it.....if my memory hasn't run down the street again
[09:06] <Losty81> !edgy

[09:06] <Shadowpillar> xanda: it's possible, but actually getting a linux virus would be very hard to do, the most that could happen is it would fuck up your home directory, unless you gave it root priveledges, which would require user intervention

[09:07] <Madpilot> xanda, ubotu is a bot, not a person
[09:07] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell xanda about yourself

[09:08] <cdubya> heh
[09:08] <Losty81> mes a zinks
[09:08] <Losty81> any one know whether edgy cd 3 has been released?
[09:08] <gentix> thanks for the help, i got it working

[09:19] <JoseStefan> How can I set default ports for gnome-btdownload? Is there a config file?
[09:20] <davalex> What are the biggest changes between 6.06 and 6.10?
[09:20] <printk> actually several key points, check out the wiki on #ubuntu+1 topic
[09:20] <drbashir> hmm, a new kernel...
[09:21] <davalex> printk: do you have a url for me?
[09:23] <cdubya> davalex, /join #ubuntu+1

[09:24] <Morgan> How do I reinstall the Ubuntu Ati driver ?
[09:24] <cdubya> g'night all
[09:26] <medic30420> Hi agian, can anyone provide help with ssh keys, my remote machine won't recognize the key, i am trying to set this up for the first time
[09:27] <OofCZer0> ok i need help i was just getting help from cdubya and now hes gone, can anyone else help me
[09:27] <Morgan> I need someone to help me with Ati driver install for Ubuntu 64-bit ! The turorial dodn`'t help
[09:28] <medic30420> i have followed several tutorials and have created a set of public/private keys for openssh, chmod'd the files and directories, but the remote machine just keeps asking me for my password instead of passphrase
[09:29] <OofCZer0> i have installed ubuntu several times today and the installation goes fine and says it competed succesfully everytime, and when i restart it just boots windows and does not give me the option of choosing
[09:29] <mgcross> lol...my questions would ne limited to inane things like is you service running on a blocked port...<blush>
[09:29] <E_r_i_K> medic: have you tried ssh-copy-id ?
[09:29] <OofCZer0> does anyone know this general area of help
[09:30] <medic30420> E_r_i_K: i cannot get that to work
[09:30] <medic30420> E_r_i_K: always permission denied
[09:30] <Montag_> OofCZer0: Did you install windows recently?
[09:30] <OofCZer0> no
[09:31] <OofCZer0> Montag_ its been about 2 months maybe less
[09:31] <E_r_i_K> medic: what are your permissions on the ~/.ssh on the remote box?
[09:31] <Montag_> OofCZer0: Hmm. Do you usually use grub as a bootloader?
[09:31] <medic30420> E_r_i_K: currently 600
[09:31] <medic30420> ownership under my username
[09:31] <medic30420> tried under root
[09:32] <medic30420> read / write
[09:32] <OofCZer0> Montag_ this is my first day trying to uses ubuntu, and i have yet to get it working
[09:33] <E_r_i_K> medic: after ssh-copy-id does it put something in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys?
[09:34] <medic30420> E_r_i_K: no, it gives an access denied
[09:34] <Montag_> OofCZer0: I'd suggest trying to ask someone to help you install a bootloader, like grub, which would allow you to switch between Ubuntu and Windows (assuming you have them on different partitions). You'd need at least an Ubuntu install CD to do this, but I don't know the specifics.
[09:34] <mixelogj> Hello everyone. I have installed all the important thinkpad stuff on my thinkpad T43, but I am having trouble compiling a patched with queuefreeze 2.6.16 kernel. Specifically, I compile and install it without problems, but I can't get it to boot. I am sure the problem is the sata drive. I have created the initrd image but it returns two errors from modules that were not found. During boot, it tries to find "hda" which does not exist and of course freeze.
[09:34] <mixelogj>  I have lost so much time in this but I want to use ubuntu instead of windows...
[09:35] <OofCZer0> does anyone know how to install a bootloader like Montag_ is talking about?????
[09:36] <E_r_i_K> medic30420:  my usual next move is to rename ~/.ssh and then retry, but that is just me
[09:36] <livingdaylight> have people safely updated the recent kernel update?
[09:36] <medic30420> E_r_i_K: i will give it a try
[09:37] <E_r_i_K> medic: if that works, you can compare the permissions and merge accordingly

[09:41] <gharz> what does it mean?
[09:42] <pitti> gharz: your package index is out of date
[09:42] <pitti> gharz: you need to update it first (reload in synaptic, apt-get update on the shell)
[09:42] <gharz> ok i'll try it. thanks!
[09:44] <livingdaylight> i got a red button on my desktop, telling me to update kernel etc. Is it safe?
[09:44] <maxamillion> livingdaylight: yeah ... i updated an hour ago
[09:44] <livingdaylight> maxamillion: thx :) and your system obviously hasn't crashed
[09:45] <KenMikaze> hello can i ask a question? please don't let me do RTFM like the guys in #linux does. Is it ok to install wine?

[09:49] <mixelogj> has anyone recompiled and successfully booted 2.6.16 on a SATA hdd?
[09:50] <irawan> OofCZer0: what have you got so far?
[09:50] <KenMikaze> hello can i ask a question? please don't let me do RTFM like the guys in #linux does. Is it ok to install wine?

[09:51] <MTecknology> Uhh O... I made a backup of my system using Mondo/Mindi... I tried to use it and it doesn't work. I put CD #1 in and my computer won't boot from this CD. I put in #2 and it boots from here, but it errors/quits because it is not the first disk. I am in Windows now and I can't see any files in D:/ but when I look at the CD at an angle, it is obvious data has been burned to it... How do I get my system back?
[09:52] <blenda> hi all! what decides if a package is placed in multiverse?
[09:52] <KenMikaze> are you dual booting 0ofCZER0?
[09:52] <KenMikaze> uhm JoseStefan OK=Alright
[09:53] <Flannel> !tell KenMikaze about wine
[09:53] <JoseStefan> KenMikaze, that's not exactly i meant
[09:53] <frogzoo> KenMikaze: wine from the repos is out of date, either build from the source budgetdedicated repos, or the sourceforge binary
[09:54] <KenMikaze> thanks Flannel
[09:54] <JoseStefan> KenMikaze, as long as you install wine from the official repos, it shouldnt break anything. But that doesnt mean the apps you want to use will work flawlessly
[09:55] <KenMikaze> ok, because i'm getting the wine from a debian repository, as ubuntu community said.
[09:55] <KenMikaze> deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt breezy main
[09:56] <JoseStefan> !info wine

[09:57] <ajwasek> hello?
[09:57] <mixelogj> has anyone recompiled and successfully booted 2.6.16 on a SATA hdd?
[09:58] <mixelogj> or any kernel for that matter.
[09:58] <mtecknology> I made a backup of my system using Mondo/Mindi... I tried to use it and it doesn't work. I put CD #1 in and my computer won't boot from this CD.

I am in Windows now and I can't see any files in D:/ but when I look at the CD at an angle, it is obvious data has been burned to it... How do I get my system back?
[09:58] <ajwasek> how do i show a window with all the users in xchat
[09:58] <ajwasek> it's not showing who is in the channel
[09:59] <JoseStefan> ajwasek: you could use the /who command
[09:59] <mixelogj> click on botton left where it says <number> users
[09:59] <mixelogj> but that may just be gnome xchat
[09:59] <ajwasek> well i just installed ubuntu
[10:00] <JoseStefan> ajwasek: correction: the /names command
[10:00] <ajwasek> yeah but i want a window with all thjose names in there

[10:02] <manofwar> hi, does anyone have any solution to getting nvtv to work with newer nvidia cards? it simply says no supported video card found. and restarting X for each time i wanna switch between tv  and monitor isn't very cool as i have to shutdown everything
[10:02] <Flannel> tristan_: #ubuntu-xgl
[10:02] <tristan_> Flannel, thanks
[10:02] <KenMikaze> and for chatting, open your terminal and type sudo apt-get insall irssi
[10:02] <Flannel> irssi is already installed
[10:03] <KenMikaze> ok, open irssi
[10:03] <KenMikaze> have fun chatting on your terminal box,
[10:05] <KenMikaze> uhm, btw, how can i set my winmodem to run for up to 32. KBPS?
[10:05] <ajwasek> that nigga got sting rayed
[10:05] <suyog> sudo has stopped asking me for password! what can i do?
[10:05] <ireneshusband> anyone know about ethernet bridges? I've just set up a bridge but pings fail across it even though dhcp requests work. Thought it might be something to do with the promisc flag in ifconfig, but setting that for my ethernet devices didn't do anything. Any ideas appreciated.
[10:06] <Flannel> suyog: have you used sudo recently?
[10:06] <mixelogj> maybe you gave it a password less that 15 minutes ago?
[10:06] <ajwasek> steve irwin?
[10:06] <suyog> no. it hasn't asked me password for the last one week now. even after reboots
[10:06] <Flannel> ajwasek: #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:06] <ajwasek> thanks, and sorry
[10:07] <suyog> it just executes the commands without password. isn't that unsafe?
[10:07] <JoseStefan> suyog, does your user have a password?
[10:08] <ireneshusband> suyog, try doing passwd <yourusername> and see if that makes a difference
[10:08] <suyog> yes, my user has a password. I think i changed something when i was creating another user for my system. now i can't undo it cause i don't know what i changed
[10:08] <treedreamer> hello guys
[10:08] <Commander-Crowe> hey um is anyone here good with hardware

[10:10] <Ketsuban> Hi, I've just configured dualscreen and I notice each screen has its own cursor. Is there a way to hide the cursor on the inactive screen or otherwise make it so only one cursor is ever shown at any time?
[10:10] <KenMikaze> yeah
[10:10] <bsdfox> so yes
[10:10] <treedreamer> It seems that when you try to add some big files ,
[10:10] <Commander-Crowe> ok
[10:10] <treedreamer> it just crashes
[10:10] <Commander-Crowe> cuz my mobo was burnt out when my PSU blew out
[10:10] <Commander-Crowe> mybe my CPU too but I have no way to tell
[10:11] <KenMikaze> ok, installing wine.
[10:11] <kholerabbi> Hullo, I am trying to use beagle, but it doesn't seem to work properly - it says it is indexing my home directory, but I have tried lots of different searches that should have results and none are found :(
[10:11] <mixelogj> has anyone recompiled and successfully booted 2.6.16 (or any other recent kernel for that matter) on a SATA hdd?
[10:13] <malcc> Hi, I can't get the dapper liveCD to boot on my desktop, after starting Enterprise Volume Management System it throws up an endless stream of errors

[10:15] <mtecknology> I made a backup of my system using Mondo/Mindi... I tried to use it and it doesn't work. I put CD #1 in and my computer won't boot from this CD. I put in #2 and it boots from here, but it errors/quits because it is not the first disk. I am in Windows now and I can't see any files in D:/ but when I look at the CD at an angle, it is obvious data has been burned to it... How do I get my system back?
[10:16] <mtecknology> How do I recover data off of an apparently blank CD?
[10:16] <Schalken> mtechnology: whats Mondo/Mindi?
[10:16] <manofwar> is it blank or just aparently? you can perhaps dump it on disk with 'dd'
[10:16] <Schalken> '[;
[10:16] <Schalken> whoops, cat on keyboard :p
[10:17] <Commander-Crowe> how do I tell if a proc is bad without puting it into a mobo?
[10:17] <KenMikaze> Commander-Crowe, nada
[10:17] <KenMikaze> plug it first.
[10:17] <Commander-Crowe> ?
[10:18] <KenMikaze> whoops, i mean try it on your mobo first.
[10:18] <JoseStefan> Commander-Crowe, RMA it
[10:18] <Commander-Crowe> I can't
[10:18] <Commander-Crowe> my mobo went bad along with my PSU
[10:18] <KenMikaze> what's your pc, commander?
[10:18] <OofCZer0> irawan i have installed ubuntu and thats it, i restart and it does not let me boot to it, it just boots windows and does not give me a choice

[10:18] <KenMikaze> oh, out of warranty, isn't it?
[10:18] <Commander-Crowe> costum built
[10:19] <Commander-Crowe> I need to figure out if the CPU is bad too
[10:19] <KenMikaze> 0ofCZero dude, is your windows installed on a primary partition?
[10:20] <KenMikaze> cuz i spent a lot of days trying to scratch my head off only to discover my windows was installed on a logical partition
[10:20] <Schalken> Commander-Crowe: (JOKE) grab a multimeter and see if you get current going through it ;) (JOKE)

[10:25] <Ketsuban> I've just configured dualscreen and I notice each screen has its own cursor, which is slightly disorienting. Is there a way to hide the cursor on the inactive screen or otherwise make it so only one cursor is ever shown at any time?
[10:25] <Commander-Crowe> I can't afford to spend alot of money on my computer so how do you guys feel about buying an open box?
[10:26] <KenMikaze> Commander-Crowe, linexant says i have to pay a "modest" amount for me to get a full driver specs.
[10:26] <JoseStefan> bye everyone
[10:26] <KenMikaze> i dunno, commander-crowe, but the parts may come in handy

[10:27] <seshomaru> hello , need some quick advice about nvidia cards
[10:27] <Commander-Crowe> thats the mobo I want to get
[10:27] <Schalken> ajwasek: go to Applications -> Add/Remove, then click 'Advanced' down the bottom, then look for and install the packages listed near the top of that page.
[10:27] <KenMikaze> try msi or epox they're pretty cheap and pretty decent
[10:28] <ajwasek> doing that now, thanks for all the help
[10:28] <Schalken> ajwasek: any more questions just shoot
[10:29] <Commander-Crowe> seshomaru: shoot
[10:29] <sandrinux> seshomaru: write a question, don't ask if you can write a question.
[10:29] <seshomaru> oh
[10:29] <seshomaru> ok
[10:29] <KenMikaze> arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh I have to wait until my wine download finishes, and it says I have to wait for 2 damned hours, all that for a 12.5MB Download?
[10:29] <seshomaru> does it matter what model nvidia card i get?
[10:29] <seshomaru> (i want to buy one)
[10:29] <Commander-Crowe> it needs to be fairly new
[10:29] <Commander-Crowe> like 2003 or newer to work well
[10:30] <sandrinux> KenMikaze: hey , thei send you the code via snail-mail ?
[10:30] <seshomaru> how about 6200 is that a new one?
[10:30] <Commander-Crowe> I always have problems with older ones
[10:30] <Schalken> seshomaru: as long as its a gefore 5 (aka FX) or newer you cant go wrong with nvidia for linux.
[10:30] <Commander-Crowe> seshomaru: that'll work great
[10:30] <seshomaru> ok
[10:30] <seshomaru> thanks
[10:30] <KenMikaze> give me the specs seshomaru
[10:30] <slacker_nl> hi all
[10:30] <seshomaru> KenMikaze, my specs?
[10:31] <slacker_nl> got a question regarding the /etc/resolv.conf icw the host cmd
[10:31] <Schalken> seshomaru: i can reccommend a geforce 6200 (low end) or 6600 (mid range, lota power)
[10:31] <KenMikaze> for the 6200 nvidia
[10:31] <seshomaru> KenMikaze, is 80$ a good price?
[10:31] <slacker_nl> how come on ubuntu it does not follow the search domains?
[10:31] <Schalken> seshomaru: currency?
[10:31] <seshomaru> US$
[10:31] <KenMikaze> yeah, it is.
[10:31] <Commander-Crowe> seshomaru: you should pay $80 for a a 6600
[10:32] <drbashir> So If I understood correctly: Dapper is the current release, Edgy will be the next release, and the different Knot versions are development milestones?
[10:32] <seshomaru> I need to buy a new motherboard that supports nvidia as well, can anyone recommend one?
[10:32] <sandrinux> i bought a g-force   agp  Mb for  Euro
[10:32] <sandrinux> that is..
[10:33] <Commander-Crowe> seshomaru: depends on what proc
[10:33] <drbashir> sandrinux, forgot to turn on num-lock? :P
[10:33] <sandrinux> 63 $
[10:33] <KenMikaze> go for msi
[10:33] <seshomaru> Commander-Crowe, what is proc? (hardware illiterate , I am)
[10:33] <Commander-Crowe> seshomaru: CPU proccessor
[10:33] <seshomaru> oh
[10:34] <Commander-Crowe> AMDor Intel
[10:34] <Commander-Crowe> Pentium 4 or Athlon 64
[10:34] <seshomaru> I have pentium 4 2.20ghz
[10:34] <Commander-Crowe> ok
[10:34] <seshomaru> Commander-Crowe, is it worth updating the CPU as well?
[10:34] <Commander-Crowe> depends
[10:34] <Commander-Crowe> what will you be doing?
[10:35] <sandrinux> drbashir: Yes :-) was g-force 6 - 6200 256Mb for 50 Euro
[10:35] <seshomaru> Watching DVD's
[10:35] <seshomaru> +XGL
[10:35] <Commander-Crowe> it should be fine
[10:36] <seshomaru> last question - how much will you pay for a decent motherboard that supports Nvidia + Pentium 4?
[10:37] <ireneshusband> i've set up an ethernet bridge. dhcp works across the bridge, but pings and http fail. anyone got any idea what's up?
[10:37] <KenMikaze> Commander-Crowe, i have a v9250 agp 8x card here
[10:38] <Commander-Crowe> KenMikaze: so?

[10:45] <ireneshusband> talking about ati, when i installed dapper a couple of days ago hardware acceleration worked, out of the box, with the open source driver. then i must have done some stuff including installing fglrx, found that fglrx was no good, rolled back to the open source driver and found acceleration no longer working.  Any ideas?

[10:48] <thegve> Hey.. I'm having problems using my raid controller under the ubuntu installer. It's a SIS sas(some number). The XEN kernel supports the controller. So I'd liked to install ubuntu on one of the disk, and then let the raid controller build the array after installation. The controller only complains about not having enough space left on the disk for creating the array data. How much space should I leave free?
[10:48] <KenMikaze> you have to reinstall windows to fat32, sorry dude.

[10:49] <shadeofgrey> hey everybody
[10:49] <bony> how to test cpu performence in ubuntu dapper 64bit?
[10:49] <maxamillion> ok ... everything that is running in ram is fine, but i can't open any new applications and i can't even log into command line viz ctrl+alt+f1 .... any thoughts?
[10:49] <maxamillion> i just lost my mouse
[10:50] <shadeofgrey> what version of ubuntu do i download that can handle more than one processoir and utilize the macbookpro?
[10:50] <bony> is there any c code or something like that?
[10:50] <thegve> bony: apt-cache search benchmark
[10:50] <ootput> shadeofgrey: ppc, install -smp kernel
[10:50] <shadeofgrey> no
[10:50] <bony> thegve, thanks for the pointer i will check it out
[10:50] <shadeofgrey> its not a power pc computer
[10:50] <maxamillion> ootput: macbook pro == intel core duo
[10:50] <shadeofgrey> its intel
[10:50] <maxamillion> brb
[10:50] <ootput> maxamillion: ah
[10:50] <shadeofgrey> and the core duo IS dual core is it not?
[10:51] <RogerRabb> hey, looking for a code documentation programme.. something I can use to document programmes for users of the programme, and for developers.. Trying to keep to a strict standard - eg similar to standard that latex employs
[10:51] <robert_> is it me, or is us.archive.ubuntu.com slow?
[10:51] <thegve> RogerRabb: What programming language
[10:51] <ootput> shadeofgrey: one of the first few google hits: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=198453
[10:51] <thegve> RogerRabb: JavaDoc, PHPdoc (lot more languages)Doc
[10:51] <ootput> documentation is often easier to follow than irc banter :/
[10:52] <thegve> RogerRabb: Though writing user documentation in the code seams a bit weird to me
[10:52] <ootput> are any of you del.icio.us junkies?
[10:52] <RogerRabb> thegve many.. html, javascript, php, asp.net, c#, python, etc..
[10:52] <bony> thegve, there is a package call stress
[10:52] <RogerRabb> and no no no.. I won't be writing user documentation in the code
[10:52] <thegve> main () # Please click the right mouse button and select "copy"
[10:52] <bony> thegve, will that do? it describes "A tool to impose load on and stress test a computer system"
[10:53] <robert_> RogerRabb: why?
[10:53] <robert_> er, why not?
[10:53] <robert_> oh
[10:53] <thegve> bony: Don't know, you could try...
[10:53] <bony> ok i will cehck it out
[10:53] <robert_> he wants to write sloppy code, and have *Doc figure it out
[10:53] <RogerRabb> I don't want something which goes through my code and takes my comments and puts it into a file for 'documentation'.. I'm writing my own documentation, separate to the code. I'm after a proper application to do structure and format it.. which won't degrade over time..
[10:53] <RogerRabb> no no robert_
[10:54] <RogerRabb> user documentation over features, and documentation for developers.. seperate from code comments.
[10:54] <robert_> Ah
[10:54] <robert_> something like a win32 help studio
[10:55] <shadeofgrey> whoa
[10:55] <shadeofgrey> installation of ubuntu as a dual boot on intel macs is COMPLICATED
[10:55] <ootput> but it gets the job done
[10:56] <thegve> Right. But does anyone here know how much space I need to leave empty on a disc in order to have the raid controller able to create it's raid data on it?
[10:56] <shadeofgrey> does ati video card support in ubuntu still blow rancid baboon balls?
[10:56] <thegve> It's in a raid 1 configuration (with one hot spare, 3 discs..)
[10:56] <RogerRabb> not even that really. Looking for something which applies to all languages for documentation.. eg similar to the latex strictness for scientific documents, just something which is suited towards programming code examples, screenshots of applications, etc, which I know will be the same in years to come. Don't want to write my own standard, because there shuold obviously be something like this out already.
[10:57] <ootput> cool, nvidia driver update
[10:57] <RogerRabb> I could use xml and xslt.. but don't want to make my own standard, as I've already mentioned
[10:58] <KenMikaze> ei, if ooczero comes back, kindly ask him if he installed ubuntu first and windows second.
[10:58] <thegve> RogerRabb: I usually just use OO writer for this in our company's housestyle, and for developer documentation I use *Doc, which is quite cool after heaving read it's documentation.
[11:00] <RogerRabb> right.. I'll continue my search then, since that hardly seems ideal
[11:09] <maxamillion> this might be a pointless question ... but is it possible to recover a directory after i rm'd it?
[11:09] <bugihugi> yes, restore it from backup..
[11:10] <maxamillion> bugihugi: i didn't explicitly do a backup, does ubuntu have some feature i don't know about?
[11:10] <tristan_> Anyone use LaTeX here?
[11:10] <dburger> yes tristan_
[11:10] <bugihugi> max : no sorry....not that i know of.
[11:11] <tristan_> dburger, One of my title section is going out of the page. Ho can I automatically break it so it is not cut
[11:11] <DBO> maxamillion, possible?  yes... easy?  not at all
[11:11] <ootput> what's the Xorg equivalent (less hacks) of xgl?
[11:11] <ootput> aixgl or something?
[11:11] <maxamillion> DBO: easy is not of my concern, i REQUIRE those files
[11:11] <tristan_> dburger, when I put \\ in the section it doesn't do anything
[11:11] <maxamillion> i created a chroot and apparently linked the wrong directory and fragged it
[11:11] <dburger> tristan_, let me review some of my old work, hold on
[11:12] <maxamillion> DBO: how do i get them back?
[11:12] <DBO> maxamillion, low level data recovery, but you need to stop using that drive like right now before they parts of the drive they were on get overwritten
[11:13] <maxamillion> DBO: i'm on a live cd ... as soon as i deleted them i shutdown
[11:13] <tristan_> dburger, OK, I'm waiting. Hope you don't have too much old work ;)
[11:14] <dburger> "out of the page" what do you mean, off the right margin or what?
[11:15] <tristan_> dburger, exactly, off the right margin
[11:15] <DBO> maxamillion, ok, http://www.porcupine.org/forensics/tct.html  you need something like that
[11:15] <dburger> in a \section{Whatever}
[11:15] <tristan_> dburger, exactly
[11:15] <DBO> maxamillion, having never had to actually do recovery like that myself (I have backups of my key files made on a 4 hour basis) I dont know how to use it, so dont ask me
[11:16] <DM-Horus> anyone recommend any themes?
[11:16] <dburger> try \linebreak ?
[11:16] <maxamillion> DBO: what program do you use to make backups every 4 hours?
[11:17] <maxamillion> DBO: because i obviously need to do this in the future
[11:17] <tristan_> dburger, not working
[11:17] <DBO> maxamillion, NFS and cron
[11:17] <bugihugi> max : http://www.r-studio.com/ may also be helpful, altough it is payware...
[11:17] <drumline> DM-Horus: anything withous a grassy knoll and fake clouds...
[11:17] <drumline> without
[11:17] <ootput> for those of you using xgl and nvidia with xorg, is it relatively easy to disable the feature (i.e, purge my system of it)?
[11:17] <DBO> back in 10 rebooting
[11:18] <ootput> I'd like to take xgl out for a spin, and not have to worry about irreversible damage to my box
[11:18] <DM-Horus> since theres not enough glassy/longhorn themes
[11:18] <Ketsuban> I've just configured dualscreen and I notice each screen has its own cursor, which is slightly disorienting. Is there a way to hide the cursor on the inactive screen or otherwise make it so only one cursor is ever shown at any time?
[11:18] <drumline> running out of HD space sucks
[11:20] <bugihugi> maxamillion: i use http://backuppc.sourceforge.net for backup. Excellent tool....
[11:22] <maxamillion> bugihugi: thanks ...
[11:22] <maxamillion> i also think i might have found a way to get my files back, and if it works ... i plan to publish it on wiki.ubuntu.com
[11:22] <maxamillion> publish a how-to*
[11:22] <compengi> how to know what tcl version i have?
[11:23] <bon> how do i setup file sharing between two kubuntu computers
[11:23] <compengi> bon, you need samba
[11:23] <compengi> !samba
[11:23] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:24] <drumline> anyone ever work with Centrify?
[11:24] <bon> but they are both useung kubuntu
[11:24] <Elij> try sshfs or nfs
[11:24] <rambo3> compengi, tcl ? try with apt-cache policy tcl
[11:24] <Elij> !nfs
[11:24] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[11:24] <Elij> !sshfs
[11:24] <ubotu> sshfs: filesystem client based on SSH File Transfer Protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.3-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 23 kB, installed size 100 kB
[11:24] <drumline> I'm interested in getting a Samba server participating fully with an Active Directory domain...  permissions...  all that stuff... I need it.

[11:30] <roxio> ola??
[11:30] <DBO> mixelogj, SATA is no issue
[11:30] <DBO> mixelogj, Im running SATA right now
[11:30] <mixelogj> it is. I can't get the kernel to boot. I think SATA is the issue because it tries to find "hda" at boot, instead of "sda".
[11:30] <mixelogj> me too, but with the kernel ubuntu install compiled
[11:31] <DBO> are you keeping your previous kernel selections when you recompile?
[11:31] <mixelogj> yup. I copied .config as it was from the existing kernel
[11:31] <mixelogj> the only difference is that i apply the queuefreeze patch
[11:33] <DBO> mixelogj, no idea, i dont have any issues...
[11:33] <compengi> DBO, can you help?
[11:33] <mixelogj> you simply copied .config, compiled the kernel and booted with sata?
[11:33] <mixelogj> (and created initrd)

[11:57] <RMorris84> did u select a keyboard layout?
[11:57] <ootput> are any of you using xgl with xfce (via xubuntu or other?) My screen resolution is @ 1024x768, but xgl produces a 800x600 screen (top-left aligned) instead
[11:57] <ngnz> Yes American English
[11:58] <MenZa> If I connect an Ethernet cable after starting my system, how can I make Ubuntu find my connection?
[11:59] <RMorris84> ngnz: what do u mean by jams? when u first load up the disk, did u see an option to check the cd? i would try that
[11:59] <rpedro> hi, anyone tried fireflier? is it any good? can't seem to find an howto for it

[12:03] <duellsy> hey party people, i was wondering if anyboy would be able to give me a tad of help on the installation of ubunutu 6.06?
[12:03] <MenZa> RMorris84: hmm, on second inspection, it doesn't :s
[12:03] <duellsy> step 6 isn't giving me the partitions i crreated in step 5 to choose... any ideas??
[12:04] <rambo3> !ati
[12:04] <RMorris84> MenZa: mine has always just worked when i plugged it after ive booted, but im on wireless fulltime... so i havent had to fiddle with it much, would it just be easier to reboot? lol
[12:04] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:04] <MenZa> RMorris84: perhaps, but it's a time-consuming process
[12:04] <MenZa> And occasionally my ethernet cable unplugs (the little click-thing has fallen off)
[12:05] <duellsy> is anybody able to help me out??
[12:05] <RMorris84> ah, i hate that...
[12:05] <RMorris84> duellsy: ... whats up
[12:05] <RMorris84> oh... step 6
[12:05] <RMorris84> duellsy: what kind of partitions did u make?
[12:05] <duellsy> RMorris84: im having trouble with installing ubuntu 6.06
[12:06] <duellsy> well i made 3, 2 as ext3, the other as swap
[12:06] <RMorris84> MenZa: i dont use kde, when i did have to plug in a cable i just did the networking in gnome and it worked
[12:06] <MenZa> RMorris84: right, I'll try in #kubuntu
[12:06] <RMorris84> should be able to help sorry man
[12:06] <RMorris84> duellsy: and in step 6 u dont see the ones u made?
[12:06] <duellsy> RMorris84: but when i go back to step 5, it says that the filesystsem for all the new partitions are "unknown"
[12:06] <duellsy> no
[12:07] <RMorris84> are they the only partitions on that drive?
[12:07] <duellsy> no, there is still my windows partition that I need to keep
[12:07] <RMorris84> so u are trying to dual boot
[12:07] <duellsy> yes
[12:08] <RMorris84> well.. did u defrag by chance before u tried the install...
[12:09] <duellsy> the new partitions created are taking over what was previously gentoo
[12:10] <RMorris84> duellsy: hrm, so u got ur windows partition, then u have another partition that is divided into 3 smaller parts right? 2 ext3 and 1 swap?
[12:11] <duellsy> yep, that's right
[12:11] <RMorris84> do u get any errors in step 6?
[12:12] <duellsy> no, but the only options I have for the partition to choose in the drop downs are the windows partition, and the other hard drive... theres no mention of the newly created partitions
[12:12] <RMorris84> then i dont think its creating ur partitions correctly...
[12:13] <RMorris84> (i know im captain obvious)
[12:13] <duellsy> yeah, well when i choose to go back a step... it shows the 3 partitions, but their filesystems are all "unknown"
[12:13] <duellsy> hehe yeah
[12:13] <RMorris84> can u burn another live cd?
[12:13] <duellsy> you think it might be the cd?
[12:14] <RMorris84> i would get the gparted live cd... and setup ur partitions before u try to install
[12:14] <duellsy> gparted?
[12:14] <RMorris84> or try to set them up in windows with a program
[12:14] <duellsy> i have a gentoo cd... i could just use that yeah?
[12:15] <duellsy> oh yeah, like image magic... that lets you choose ext3 and swap etc?
[12:15] <RMorris84> gnome partition editor
[12:15] <RMorris84> yeah, that why the ubuntu cd isnt creating them for u...
[12:15] <duellsy> ...why, what? haha
[12:15] <RMorris84> u could also try... before u boot into the live cd... to "check cd" for erros
[12:16] <RMorris84> before that was, "yeah, that WAY.."
[12:16] <ngnz> RMorris84  all media was fine.......... just rebooting it now
[12:16] <duellsy> well im already booting into windows, so i might just try setting them up, and just then be able to skip step 5
[12:16] <HetaUma> hi
[12:16] <HetaUma> is there any "easy" way yet to install ubuntu on systems with p965 chipsets with jmicron controller?
[12:17] <Snake[Sleep] > Any wget masters in here?
[12:18] <RMorris84> duellsy: :) and hopefully u'll be able to enjoy ubuntu
[12:18] <duellsy> with a bit of luck, yeah :P
[12:19] <RMorris84> duellsy: it took me about 2 weeks of ubuntu to ditch my windows partition...
[12:19] <duellsy> really?
[12:21] <RMorris84> yup... i mean it all depends on what u do, and what u cant live without.. the basic things i do all the time (browse web, email, aim, etc) is easily done in ubuntu... and i just found myself not moving booting into windows...
[12:21] <slacker_nl> Snake[Sleep] : what do you need to know?

[12:27] <students> hi, how can i see what version of kernel i have ?
[12:27] <faitroll> uname -r
[12:27] <faitroll> type this when your on the terminal
[12:27] <students> thx
[12:28] <faitroll> your welcome
[12:28] <faitroll> now does anybody know how i remove my usb device safely?
[12:29] <students> simply "unmount" doesn't work ?
[12:29] <slacker_nl> Snake[Sleep] : this could be it:
[12:29] <sd> how can i determine my ip in the terminal
[12:29] <slacker_nl>        -A acclist --accept acclist
[12:29] <slacker_nl>        -R rejlist --reject rejlist
[12:29] <slacker_nl>            Specify comma-separated lists of file name suffixes or patterns to
[12:29] <slacker_nl>            accept or reject (@pxref{Types of Files} for more details).
[12:29] <students> ifconfig ?
[12:29] <Snake[Sleep] > slacker_nl, I just got a txt of all the urls going
[12:29] <Snake[Sleep] > that works fine
[12:29] <sd> thanx!
[12:30] <RMorris84> plus, i just love the support this "community" has... i like what it stands for, and just being tech savvy, i liked to break my computer alot, just to see if i could fix it, so man, this is right up my alley
[12:30] <slacker_nl> maybe later you can try the other options :)
[12:30] <bina> hi, is there a way i can force KDE to use 1280x800 resolution, I have my X set up so only that mode is available and it looks like it uses it in the login screen but KDE uses 1024x768 still
[12:30] <faitroll> students...it works but i am afraid that it's the right way to do so
[12:30] <mabus> How do I tell what kind of charset I'm using? Or does anybody know what's used by default with ubuntu?
[12:31] <students> faitroll: i believe that you can find the answer at ubuntu forums
[12:32] <students> mabus: utf-8, i believe
[12:32] <faitroll> students : ok. thank you anyway
[12:32] <slacker_nl> mabus: env | grep LANG

[12:34] <knapper> hey guys, im trying to get listen player working. I've installed it using automatix and when I run it I get http://pastebin.ca/171376
[12:34] <asodesign> well I do use ubuntu dapper
[12:34] <students> asodesign: you probably removed some dependencies as well
[12:35] <knapper> if you have any ideas, I would be happy to hear them

[12:36] <Overand> yeah
[12:36] <asodesign> ok
[12:36] <sd> please help, how do i determine my ip in the terminal window?
[12:36] <Overand> slacker_nl';s suggestion is good
[12:36] <slacker_nl> sd: ifconfig -a
[12:36] <Overand> then when you  find the package you want, sudo apt-get update
[12:36] <Overand> then suda apt-get install packagename
[12:36] <Overand> (probablyu should do the update first)
[12:36] <sd> thanx! slacker_nl
[12:37] <asodesign> I will
[12:37] <knapper> The last couple of programs I've tried to run give me the following error: locale.Error: unsupported locale setting
[12:37] <knapper> anyone know how I can fix that?
[12:37] <asodesign> thank you for the advice guys
[12:37] <slacker_nl> yw dude
[12:37] <atroWork> knapper, what's your locale set to?
[12:38] <knapper> atroWork, how do I check?
[12:38] <Caplain> how do i install the nvidia-driverss?
[12:38] <atroWork> knapper, I think this'll do it: env | grep LANGUAGE
[12:38] <RMorris84> !nvidia > Caplain
[12:38] <slacker_nl> atroWork: grep for LANG
[12:38] <nicu> salut
[12:39] <Overand> maybe do a dpkg-reconfigure locales ?
[12:39] <knapper> LANGUAGE=en
[12:39] <nicu> am si eu una mica problema daca poate sa ma ajute si pe mine careva?
[12:39] <knapper> overand I did that
[12:39] <knapper> still get the same error
[12:39] <Overand> hm
[12:39] <slacker_nl> knapper: locale will do the job
[12:39] <nicu> bagai si eu vmware  si nu vrea sa mearga sau mai simplu poate nu stiu eu sa umblu cu el
[12:39] <Caplain> thx RMorris84
[12:39] <Overand> yes- if i ever suggest a command with a 'maybe' - i mean it =] 
[12:40] <Overand> (I mean maybe)
[12:40] <knapper> here is what locale reveals
[12:40] <knapper> http://pastebin.ca/171383
[12:40] <JackONeill> The update manager says i am up to date... can i go ahead and use the xfce menu editor without risk?

[12:41] <guillem101> How can I retrieve the IP address from a SMB machine, when I only know the machine name?
[12:41] <Overand> knapper: for what it's worth, mine are all "en_US.UTF-8" with a few exceptions
[12:41] <RMorris84> dammit baxter i dont speak spanish
[12:41] <nicu> i have instal vmware but it doze't star??
[12:41] <atroWork> knapper, not that it'll help you much, but my LANG variable is en_US.UTF-8 perhaps yours is in a wrong format (wild guesses here)
[12:42] <nicu> start

[12:42] <RMorris84> nicu: only the first time around
[12:42] <atroWork> nicu, it starts automatically when you install it. Do you have the VMware console installed to connect to it? or the VMware Management User Interface?
[12:42] <rambo3> knapper whats the problem
[12:42] <knapper> rambo3 The last couple of programs I've tried to run give me the following error: locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

[12:55] <asodesign> how to get the gnome back?
[12:55] <Hmmmm> hi guys, i'm having some resolution issues. can anyone help?
[12:56] <MenZa> !resolution > Hmmmm
[12:56] <MenZa> !anyone > Hmmmm
[12:56] <asodesign> any one can help me with that problem?
[12:57] <MenZa> gnome?
[12:57] <MenZa> Is it still installed?
[12:58] <ootput> Hmmmm: state the question when asking for help
[12:58] <asodesign> MenZa >> my sound card didn worked then I uninstalled the sound driver
[12:58] <MenZa> er, okay
[12:58] <nicu> DO NOT ENABLE THIS UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! :) i don"T now wat i"m doyng?
[12:58] <MenZa> you're in a terminal, I assume :P?
[12:59] <asodesign> MenZa >> I just have the terminal now
[12:59] <Ag4Ms> hello room..
[12:59] <MenZa> asodesign: startx
[12:59] <Rookie-> !nvidia
[12:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:59] <MenZa> or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[12:59] <vk__> nicu: then you probably dont need to enable it :)
[12:59] <knapper> Hey guys, I dont remember who exactly was helping me-- overand I think you were. Anyway, I figured it out, all I need to do was type 'unset LANG' and that did the trick.
[01:00] <asodesign> MenZa >> dows that bring graphic back?
[01:00] <MenZa> asodesign: yes. It starts Gnome.
[01:00] <MenZa> (starts your default x server)
[01:01] <asodesign> thanks abunch but what if gnome is been removed?
[01:01] <MenZa> It shouldn't be, unless you did that yourself :P
[01:01] <asodesign> well maybe the sudo command I did it for remove the sound card did that too
[01:02] <MenZa> err
[01:02] <MenZa> I doubt it.
[01:02] <MenZa> just do this:
[01:02] <asodesign> good
[01:02] <ootput> do any of you experience the following quirk when using xgl? - My monitor typically displays a 1024x768 resolution, but with xgl enabled, only 800x600 (aligned with TopLeft of screen) is displayed, and as a result, a gap appears alongside the lower and left borders
[01:02] <MenZa> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[01:02] <asodesign> thank you for your time
[01:02] <MenZa> run that.
[01:02] <MenZa> Oh, no problems.
[01:02] <MenZa> Happy to help.
[01:02] <asodesign> thanks
[01:02] <nicu> comone somoane from roumania>??? haide ma caut un roma sa stiu ce naiba vorbeste :)
[01:02] <RogerRabb> ootput xgl requires 24bit only.. is it possible you're using less than 24bit at 1024x768?
[01:03] <ootput> RogerRabb: yeah, I later saw that it was a requirement, but it appears my xorg.conf was set up fine
[01:03] <ootput> ie defaultdepth is at 24
[01:03] <RogerRabb> what graphics card?
[01:04] <ootput> RogerRabb: nvidia 6800GT OC (from BFG). I've setup dual-head, xinerama, and twinview fine
[01:04] <bobby123> any one here??
[01:04] <bobby123> need help
[01:05] <bobby123> :(
[01:05] <RogerRabb> k, umm not sure about xinerama and xgl..
[01:05] <bobby123> !opengl
[01:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about opengl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:05] <ootput> why of course
[01:05] <RMorris84> !anyone > bobby123
[01:05] <bobby123> my opengl doesnot work!!
[01:05] <bobby123> wht shud i do??
[01:05] <ootput> RogerRabb: I'm trying this out on dual-head for the time being, as twinview/xinerama will complicate things further, i feel
[01:05] <Ag4Ms> iwant to install ubuntu 6.06 LTS on my laptop with spec my laptop is Toshiba Satelite A55 Intel Celereon M 1.34 Mhz with HDD 60 GB and maybe very2 importan is Wireless lAN NIC Atheros AR5005G, what the NIC is have support Ubuntu 6.06 LTS..????
[01:05] <bobby123> !open
[01:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about open - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:05] <bobby123> !latest
[01:05] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[01:05] <ootput> bobby123: clarify the question
[01:05] <knapper> why can I launch a certain program from terminal, but when I make a launcher, it wont launch...?
[01:06] <RogerRabb> ootput you could ask in #ubuntu-xgl since it's more suited to that room
[01:06] <RMorris84> Ag4Ms: have u tried the live cd? might "just work"
[01:06] <RogerRabb> or keep the compiz forums... compiz.net
[01:06] <flofroth> hi
[01:06] <ootput> RogerRabb: yep, i've paid that populated channel a visit earlier today
[01:06] <no0tic> hi, I need to install kubuntu on 10 machines, is there a fast way to do it?
[01:06] <MenZa> no0tic: umm, burn 10 cds and install them similtaneously :D?
[01:06] <ootput> RogerRabb: it's okay. Xgl isn't really a show-stopper for me
[01:06] <MenZa> Installation of Ubuntu is quick and painless.
[01:06] <MenZa> Shouldn't take more than... 15 minutes for each machine.
[01:06] <Ag4Ms> RMorris84: i have can try but is not work
[01:07] <JackONeill> Can anyone help me with usplash!?
[01:07] <MenZa> !anyone
[01:07] <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?
[01:07] <mabus> I'm trying to make a soft link in a public folder to a folder inside my home directory (/home/mabus/doc/library), but users can't follow that link. /home/mabus is not readable by the users, but the permissions of the library folder say they should. Same with the soft link. Can anyone tell me why they can't?
[01:07] <flofroth> haha
[01:07] <RogerRabb> ootput, you're using the binary nvidia driver correct?
[01:07] <ootput> yes
[01:07] <no0tic> MenZa, I know, but.. something to replicate the same installation on n machines could be useful
[01:07] <flofroth> hihi
[01:07] <oholmback> gaah
[01:07] <flofroth> hoho
[01:07] <bobby123> ootput, wine doesnt work i=on my comp
[01:07] <RMorris84> Ag4Ms: then u prollly just need to apply the drivers from windows with ndiswrapper, do a search for it on google then it should "just work"
[01:07] <MenZa> no0tic: a clean install on each machine should do the same :p
[01:07] <RogerRabb> it may be some xorg quirk.. because it works perfectly here.. not with dual head mind you.. I just use one display - haven't tried multiple
[01:07] <bobby123> some prob about opengl
[01:08] <ootput> RogerRabb: I've only seen one instance of a similar problem on the forums (xgl + xubuntu,) but it remains unresolved
[01:08] <JosefK> no0tic: if the machines are identically specced, you could image it then image the machines across a LAN
[01:08] <bobby123> glxgears give driver claims to not support cisual
[01:08] <bobby123> glxgears gives driver claims to not support visual
[01:08] <bobby123> :(
[01:08] <no0tic> JosefK, dd?
[01:08] <RMorris84> no0tic: u could clone urself in some type of cloning machine, just make sure u bring the ubuntu cd with in there ;)
[01:08] <bobby123> anyone help!!
[01:09] <MenZa> RMorris84: :D
[01:09] <ootput> RogerRabb: thanks for your time. I shouldn't pursue this any further as it's cutting into my work schedule :)
[01:09] <no0tic> RMorris84, thanks for the useful hint
[01:09] <JosefK> no0tic: I was thinking ghost, but even a tarball could work if you fancy chrooting afterwards and installing GRUB
[01:09] <Ag4Ms> RMorris84: ok thanks lot...i can try ,..:)
[01:09] <elmargol> Hi I have two soundcards, one is connected to my headset (Audigy) the second is an onboard soundcard. The onboard soundcard is connected to my soundsystem. I can't choose my onboard soundcard on amarok :/ on dapper everything worked fine :(
[01:09] <elmargol> (I'm on edgy now)
[01:10] <ootput> elmargol: do you have a custom .asoundrc, or something similar?
[01:10] <RMorris84> no0tic: but its prolly just easier to do it one by one, its not painfull
[01:10] <RogerRabb> ootput ah, sorry I couldn't help.. the guys at compiz.net really do know their stuff. So it's worthwhile posting a quick message with the problem then checking back in some time. Eg put your xorg.conf and the guide you followed to install xgl/compiz and away you go :)
[01:10] <elmargol> ootput: no it is a fresh edgy installation
[01:10] <elmargol> I can use the onboard soundcard (xmms)
[01:10] <ootput> elmargol: which engine is amarok using?
[01:10] <RMorris84> ootput: u should try the #ubuntu-xgl room
[01:11] <elmargol> ootput: oss
[01:11] <ootput> RMorris84: yeah, the 2-3 guys there aren't in the same timezone as I :)
[01:11] <JosefK> no0tic: http://ftp.ubuntulinux.org/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/installer-i386/current/doc/manual/en/ch04s06.html
[01:11] <ootput> ah whoops, xgl-ubuntu
[01:11] <JosefK> no0tic: I can't find one for dapper/edgy, but the principle's the same
[01:11] <goki-> Should "mount" show the swap partition among the mounts it returns?
[01:11] <bobby123> glxgears gives driver claims to not support visual? debian started the app without any prob/ what should i do?
[01:12] <bobby123> glxgears un ubuntu(64bit) gives driver claims to not support visual? debian(32bit) started the app without any prob/ what should i do?
[01:12] <ootput> goki-: no
[01:12] <no0tic> JosefK, thanks
[01:13] <bobby123> :(
[01:13] <asodesign> mate it doesnt work to write sudo /et/init.d/gdm start
[01:14] <Sarek> hi
[01:14] <JosefK> asodesign: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:14] <ootput> elmargol: I'm not sure if oss supports it (as opposed to alsa,) but can you specify hw:1, or hw:0 for the output device?
[01:14] <compilerwriter> Sarek, Peace and long life.
[01:14] <goki-> ootput, how can I tell whethre I have swap enabled?
[01:14] <iXce> mount?
[01:15] <RMorris84> Sarek: bumble-bee tuna.
[01:15] <elmargol> ootput: there is a list two devices there /dev/dsp an /dev/sound
[01:15] <ootput> goki-: top
[01:15] <goki-> iXce, that's what I tried, but ootput says it shouldn't show swap?
[01:15] <iXce> hm sry i'm wrong :p
[01:15] <JosefK> goki-: cat /etc/mtab
[01:15] <bobby123> ootput. see the mounted drives in gnome-monitor
[01:15] <elmargol> thats how i did it on dapper
[01:15] <bobby123> goki,  see the mounted drives in gnome-monitor
[01:15] <ootput> goki-: top will give you swap usage
[01:15] <Sarek> can anyone tell me what is special about the linux-image-server package? The description says for server equipment". Where's the difference betwenn -server and -386 or -686. I run a PIII as server ... should I use the -server image or rather the -686 image?
[01:16] <goki-> ootput, which column is that?
[01:16] <elmargol> ootput: i think the problem is i don't have /dev/sound/dsp
[01:16] <ootput> JosefK: mount and /etc/mtab display similar results.
[01:16] <JosefK> Sarek: linux-image-686 would suffice
[01:16] <kyja> has anybody used dosemu and freedos ?? I have a problem. it wont fully start up becuase it says I need to configure keyboard with $_layout keyboard
[01:16] <Sarek> JosefK, so -server is for any special server hardware?
[01:16] <ootput> goki-: 5th row, 4th column
[01:17] <DBO> free -m is easier to use
[01:17] <bobby123> glxgears un ubuntu(64bit) gives driver claims to not support visual? debian(32bit) started the app without any prob/ what should i do?
[01:17] <DBO> last row
[01:17] <goki-> DBO, ah yeah, thanks
[01:17] <JosefK> Sarek: it's compiled with some different options, a scheduler more suited to desktop systems and probably without pre-emption, but if you're running apache/mysql at home you won't notice a difference
[01:17] <goki-> Swap: 549
[01:17] <ootput> DBO: too many extra keystrokes
[01:17] <JosefK> s/desktop/server/
[01:17] <ootput> ;)
[01:18] <DBO> ootput, thats what .bashrc is for, so i can just type mem

[01:31] <RogerRabb> that's super frustrating
[01:31] <ootput> RogerRabb: yeah
[01:32] <ootput> RogerRabb: you could try printing the wiki entry to a virtual printer (pdf), and converting it from there
[01:33] <RogerRabb> I'm trying to decide between latex and docbook for my documentation/article format for my articles/posts etc.. Trying to see which one will give me the highest range of flexibility for the least amount of work. latex seems easier to work with

[01:35] <PhilH> RogerRabb, i'm go with whichever easily produces quality output in the other

[01:36] <bobby123> glxgears un ubuntu(64bit) gives driver claims to not support visual? debian(32bit) started the app without any prob/ what should i do?

[01:36] <Nilvio> now i download that iptables in synaptic
[01:37] <Garsty> my ubuntu boot-up screen doesn't display anything (only blinking '_' character at the top left corner of the screen). I did dist-uprgade to edgy eft, previously it showed a graphical mode screen with ubuntu image and a log of actions
[01:37] <Nilvio> mwe how i can use that program ?
[01:38] <jrib> !edgy
[01:38] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[01:39] <Garsty> so it isn't supposed to show the graphical boot-up screen?
[01:39] <Overand> Garsty: it probably is, but you're in the wrong channel to ask
[01:39] <Garsty> sorry :/
[01:39] <mwe> Nilvio: sudo /etc/init.d/firestarter start. then gksudo firestarter to configure. on future boots it will autostart so then you don't need the init.d stuff
[01:39] <JackONeill> Should I be using /etc/rc.local for startup things?
[01:39] <Overand> You 'upgraded' to an unfinished product
[01:40] <Garsty> I had a reason to do that :P
[01:40] <Overand> Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it doesn't.
[01:40] <Overand> ANywya, ubuntu+1 is edgy support
[01:40] <Toma-> !schedule

[01:40] <Douggie> Can apt be set to download a packages dependencies automatically? trying to install libsdl-dev but getting a heap of umet libraries..
[01:41] <Nameeater> it should do that automatically
[01:41] <jrib> Douggie: pastebin the output and your sources.list
[01:41] <mwe> JackONeill: /etc/rc.local is a good place to start you local stuff
[01:42] <Douggie> I just get a list of packages with Depends: xxx but it is not going to be installed from apt...?
[01:42] <fab31> is there a good pdf reader ? (not evince)
[01:42] <mwe> Douggie: broken sources.list probably, or you didn't sudo apt-get update
[01:43] <jrib> fab31: xpdf?
[01:43] <fab31> not needing KDE libs
[01:43] <fab31> jrib: oh, maybe, I know recent versions are quite good with alpha etc... let's try

[01:48] <SillyZ> is there anything else thatll work with the webcam? like record locally on the machine its connected to or just snap a pic ?
[01:49] <MenZa> visitante01: Never been there. Please put random chatter and offtopic conversations in #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[01:49] <visitante01> yeah
[01:49] <visitante01> Im the on brazil
[01:50] <MenZa> visitante01: ask there.
[01:50] <visitante01> yeah
[01:51] <codecaine> is there a program that I can use to control my xsession from another computer better then vnc?
[01:51] <visitante01> do liked of to go for brazil?
[01:51] <SillyZ> anyone know of an application under ubuntu other than AMsn that will work with a webcam?
[01:51] <kanzie> how do I change the size of a fat32-disc?
[01:52] <visitante01> hello
[01:52] <Shinaku> kanzie, gparted
[01:52] <elkbuntu> visitante01, you've been asked to take idle chatter to #ubuntu-offtopic, please do so
[01:52] <visitante01> do you are where
[01:53] <MenZa> >.>
[01:53] <pennypacker> try it again
[01:53] <SillyZ> why do i see a kick/ban coming here.... hehehe
[01:53] <jrib> visitante01: este canal e so para ajuda com ubuntu.  Para falar sobre outras coisas, podes usar #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:54] <MenZa> jrib: Cheers.
[01:55] <kanzie> Shinaku: Should I try some other app for resizing
[01:55] <kanzie> ?
[01:55] <SillyZ> Im just looking for an application that will work with a webcam, I dont care if its an online or offline application I just want to test and see if the webcam is working with the pwc module
[01:55] <Shinaku> kanzie, when ubuntu is installing, that little GUI partitioner is gparted
[01:55] <Shinaku> I don't think it actually installs it though
[01:56] <Shinaku> ah yes
[01:56] <Shinaku> just do:
[01:56] <Shinaku> sudo apt-get install gparted
[01:56] <alberello2005> hello room!
[01:56] <Shinaku> you'll then need to do:
[01:56] <Shinaku> sudo gparted
[01:57] <kanzie> Shinaku: That is already taken care of, Im in the application and cant resize the existing windows partition though it has free space
[01:57] <qgil>  I want to report a bug about that special key/button of the laptop to turn on /shut off the computer - does anybody know to which package belongs this?
[01:58] <Shinaku> kanzie, and it's fat32?
[01:58] <Shinaku> it shouldn't be a problem
[01:58] <SillyZ> whats a good startup file to add hdparm -c 1 -d 1   to?
[01:58] <Shinaku> make sure you've defragmented the drive in windows before hand
[01:58] <Shinaku> gparted has always worked for me
[01:58] <mwe> gparted should be able to resize ntfs I think
[01:58] <Shinaku> yes, gparted does resize NTFS
[01:59] <SillyZ> kanzie: what id do is move all the data off that fat32 drive, recreate the partition to the size you want/need, then move the data back over once its been reformatted
[01:59] <Shinaku> that'll work too, but then he'd need to reinstall windows
[01:59] <mwe> SillyZ: /etc/hdparm.conf
[01:59] <Shinaku> which has a tendency to install it's  bootloader over GRUB
[01:59] <SillyZ> mwe: thanks
[02:00] <Shinaku> so he'd need to use wingrub or something...
[02:00] <Shinaku> anyway, I'm going to reboot
[02:00] <SillyZ> kanzie: you have partition magic for windows?
[02:01] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know how to install ardour with jack and all dependencies in ubuntu

[02:09] <Paddy_EIRE> how do i configure jack to run!!!
[02:10] <m0dY> a dump question! i wonder why does apt-get install already compiled stuff on the system either than getting the sources and do the compilation process on my machine
[02:11] <Douggie> Any help would be much appreciated :: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23511
[02:11] <kanzie> SillyZ: Ah...what a great idea... Ill try to find PQ.
[02:12] <SillyZ> kanzie: PQ under windows would probably be the best way to go from what I understand this is the drive which you have winhosed installed upon?
[02:12] <chibiace> m0dY, compiling is slow
[02:12] <SillyZ> kanzie: you can pmsg me if ya like to discuss this further to save on channel spam
[02:12] <Paddy_EIRE> Anyone know what "jack" is and how i get it running? Im trying to run "ardour" and using Dapper

[02:25] <mof> "unmount" has no man page is that normal?

[02:36] <Douggie> jrib: Depends: libaudiofile-dev but it is not going to be installed'
[02:36] <compilerwriter> healot, We have tried skype but the voice quality on his end has sucked.  I am thinking it is because skype doesn't play well with Ubuntu.
[02:36] <chibiace> which version of skype were you running on ubuntu
[02:36] <Healot> compilerwriter: this face doesn't care :=| it's skype btw
[02:37] <jrib> Douggie: keep trying to install what it says until it gives you something meaningfull
[02:37] <bionoid> compilerwriter: Skype voice quality in general is suboptimal, using asterisk and a VOIP service is much better on that regard. That said, skype quality is no worse on my ubuntu than my windows.
[02:38] <lewix> i want my screensaver to change like every 20s
[02:38] <lewix> how can i do that?
[02:38] <compilerwriter> Chibiace, I was running the latest one from the skype site a few weeks back.  I is supposed to be Debian friendly with a few hangups.
[02:38] <Neo8750> load xscreensaver
[02:38] <Neo8750> and change it to change every 20 minutes
[02:39] <chibiace> compilerwriter: perhaps your soundcard?
[02:39] <compilerwriter> I am in the US and my friend is in Australia.  He says he has no problem with the quality in Windows to Windows Skype on similar calls.
[02:39] <lewix> i type xscreensaver but nothins is coming up
[02:39] <compilerwriter> Soundblaster live.
[02:39] <chibiace> i find skype fine on both my gentoo and ubuntu
[02:39] <Chousuke> voici: hmm, I think you need to force it to ask them
[02:40] <Chousuke> voici: there is some option to do that, but I can't remember which
[02:40] <jrib> Douggie: I need to reboot now, another thing you could try is passing -v to apt-get and see if it gives you more info.  Eventually you usually get to the root of the problem
[02:40] <Caplain> do i have to do something to get sata dma support?
[02:40] <Neo8750> lewix: sorry its xscreensaver-command -prefs
[02:41] <Alessandra````> wich is the difference between desktop power PC and desktop ?
[02:41] <compilerwriter> Well I have to run thanks for the input.  Perhaps we will be able to figure it out later.
[02:41] <Alessandra````> what should i download
[02:42] <Chousuke> voici: dpkg-reconfigure -p low locales
[02:42] <Chousuke> or maybe -plow :P
[02:42] <Alessandra````> can someone help me pls
[02:43] <foxiness> sure if we know how to help :)
[02:43] <Alessandra````> so
[02:43] <Alessandra````> i enter in site
[02:43] <noiesmo> Alessandra````, power pc = mac
[02:43] <Alessandra````> but i dont know
[02:43] <phaedrus44> woot
[02:43] <Alessandra````> witch version 2 downlod
[02:44] <lewix> Neo8750, thanks but it doenst work tough when i lock my screen
[02:44] <Alessandra````> betwen desktoppower and desktop
[02:44] <mof> Alessandra: power pc is for computer that use the PowerPC processor, probably the best way to decide is to find out where you got you computer?
[02:44] <Neo8750> lewix: odd mine does
[02:44] <Alessandra````> a ok
[02:44] <Alessandra````> so 4my is desktopi386
[02:44] <Alessandra````> and i have another question pls
[02:45] <Alessandra````> i have a coputer p2 300mhz with 64 ram
[02:45] <mof> then don't install the powerpc if the i386 package is installed.
[02:45] <Alessandra````> wath u think it will work on my computer
[02:45] <foxiness> hi , on ubuntu the system can not read anything from my keybord "acer laptop aspire 2000" , and this is the first time than it happen with me ! , how can i fix that ?
[02:45] <Douggie> The problem with apt only begun after I installed codeblocks, which would account for the message persisting about a missing depency (libpango) in addition to whatever I'am attempting to install. However attempting to install libpango1.0-0 I encounter the same problem, will not install any of the files depenedencies.
[02:46] <Alessandra````> so... u think that it will work on my computer
[02:46] <Alessandra````> ?
[02:47] <GNAM> ehilala' Alessandra, vieni su #ubuntu-it
[02:47] <voici> how can i set the default locale with ubuntu-server? i tried dpkg-reconfigure locales as in debian but it didn't allow me to configure the locales. it just regenerated them. where is the default locale set? tnx.
[02:48] <mols> what is ubuntu?
[02:48] <lupine_85> !ubuntu
[02:48] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[02:48] <phaedrus44> hehe
[02:48] <phaedrus44> nice
[02:48] <terlmann> does anyone here know Nthdegree?
[02:49] <Douggie> Looks like the only way out is to reinstall Ubuntu
[02:49] <jake1> anyone know of a decent mapping program, that can be used in collaboration with a USB GPS receiver and can give driving directions
[02:50] <phaedrus44> Douggie:  can you change repos back to "stock"  and do a dist upgrade?
[02:50] <jrib> Douggie: what happened?
[02:51] <seshomaru> hi, I have 2 machines ,one running Ubuntu , on erunning XP. I want to switch the motherboard between them. Will I need to reinstall Ubuntu?
[02:52] <terlmann> yes
[02:52] <foxiness> how can i fix problme wiht my keybord ,its act like it dont read my input "can not enterpassword,tab tab,wirte somehting on CLI,or swtich to terminal" how can i fix that? i dont know what happen it work on the past will.
[02:52] <motin> Please do NOT mistake me for a simple spy when I ask this question: I am looking for a way to log all my activities at the computer. idleness, keystrokes, mouseclicks, which windows are in focus etc - i am senile when trying to remember what I did the last hour. need the extra logging for tracking time when I am working on projects - does anyone here have a good tip for an app?
[02:53] <seshomaru> terlman, is that a yest to my question?
[02:53] <seshomaru> terlmann, is that a yes to my question?
[02:53] <terlmann> yes, I think it has to recompile the kernel in order to virtualize the hardware....
[02:54] <seshomaru> terlmann, thanks, i suppose i will have to reinstall XP as well then....
[02:54] <Douggie> jrib: Nothing will install and uninstall with apt, is there any way I can 'check' the integrity of apt itself, something has obviously messed with a configuration file or the like...might just be easier to reinstall
[02:54] <lupine_85> seshomaru: probably *not*
[02:54] <lupine_85> the Linux kernel included with Ubuntu is generic - it's got drivers for most common hardware included
[02:55] <lupine_85> so if you haven't rolled your own, chances are it'll work with the new hardware
[02:55] <lupine_85> XP is a different matter ;)
[02:55] <jrib> Douggie: I noticed, that there was a problems witht he codeblocks install.  It may be complaining about that until you resolve it
[02:55] <foxiness> is there a funcution on a laptop can locked the keybord?
[02:55] <seshomaru> lupine_85,  the XP pc is actually a dualboot (XP/Ubuntu) so that probably means its hardware is supported by Linux
[02:56] <[L30N] > hi is there a way to display all the installed packages via apt?
[02:56] <lupine_85> seshomaru: should work fine then.
[02:56] <lupine_85> Just make sure that the name linux gives to the hard drive doesn't change
[02:56] <terlmann> I is supported but:!
[02:56] <hilmi> i have a problem gnome sound system
[02:56] <terlmann> It*
[02:56] <lupine_85> e.g. if it's hda in the first PC, make sure it stays hda in the second PC
[02:56] <seshomaru> lupine_85, how do I make sure of that?
[02:57] <foxiness> [L30N]  yes use synaptic :)
[02:57] <jake1> :-\
[02:57] <terlmann> the hardware must be configed and drivers/modules installed,so reinstall ubuntu!
[02:57] <lupine_85> Just plug the cables in properly - make sure that if it's plugged into IDE0, that is stays plugged into IDE0 in the new machine
[02:57] <[L30N] > can't no x-windows
[02:57] <jake1> i'm trying to find a GPS driver for Linux
[02:57] <lupine_85> terlmann: not the case
[02:57] <lupine_85> seriously!
[02:57] <jrib> [L30N] : aptitude search '~i' , or you can just use    dpkg -l
[02:57] <andrew_> GPS? kismet?
[02:58] <seshomaru> lupine_85, if i understand you correctly then when I switch the motherboard on my Ubuntu machine (with the XP/Ubuntu motherborad) than it will just boot normally - i will see no difference. right?
[02:58] <[L30N] > ok thanks jrib
[02:58] <jake1> i have in my hand a USGlobalSat BU353 that would be nice to have running under Ubuntu
[02:58] <lupine_85> Everyone on Ubuntu, who hasn't customised it, uses exactly the same motherboard
[02:58] <[Kork] > hi. which application to use for unpacking .rars?
[02:58] <flithm> hey everyone... anyone know if there are packages out there for enlightenment 16.8.x?  when I do apt-get install enlightenment it just installs the really ancient 16.7 version
[02:58] <lupine_85> erm, kernel :)
[02:58] <lupine_85> seshomaru: that's correct
[02:58] <lupine_85> Linux is smart - it autodetects and loads every boot
[02:58] <seshomaru> I understand
[02:59] <foxiness> [Kork]  just install rar lib then use what come with ubuntu arc
[02:59] <seshomaru> and windows doesnt?
[02:59] <terlmann> are you just a total n))b lupine? yea,exept when you havant got it on the machine!
[02:59] <lupine_85> terimann: every Ubuntu user - with widely varying hardware - uses exactly the same hardware
[02:59] <lupine_85> I'm no n00b, but j00 sux0rz
[02:59] <lupine_85> ;)
[03:00] <[Kork] > foxiness, which package would that be?
[03:00] <migla> I get "soft lockup detected on CPU#0!" on edgy (Linux version 2.6.17-6-amd64-generic (gcc version 4.1.2 20060715 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.1-9ubuntu1))) every time I want to shut down (and then I use the powerbutton). I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Scaleo P with AMD Sempron 3200+. Any thoughts/links? (I'm just playing around with linux, if I'd really need a working system I wouldn't use edgy)
[03:00] <lupine_85> Windows doesn't deal with it as smartly as Linux. It "might" work,. but I wouldn't guarantee it
[03:00] <foxiness> [Kork]  search for it on synaptic "rar" and you will find it :)
[03:00] <Healot> ask in #ubuntu+1 >> migla
[03:01] <mwright1> How do I boot to no xwindows in Hoary Hedgehog
[03:01] <migla> k, thanks
[03:01] <[Kork] > foxiness, no libs, just bins
[03:01] <seshomaru> lupine_85, thank you
[03:01] <mwright1> its set to init 2
[03:01] <Healot> discuss test version there
[03:01] <lupine_85> migla: there's a later kernel version that that. Try an update
[03:01] <lupine_85> np seshomaru
[03:01] <terlmann> yea... but the installed packdges dont provid instructions for dealing with diff hardware,especially if it is special stuff!
[03:01] <foxiness> [Kork]  what ever something to add support for rar on linux
[03:01] <Douggie> jrib: Very difficult to install the dependency it's looking for because once I download it, libpango1.0-common for example wont install because some totally unrelated dependency is unsatisfiable...how difficult is it to reinstall apt-get?
[03:01] <[Kork] > ok, thx
[03:01] <lupine_85> terimann: you're making no sense. If the kernel modules are present - which they almost certainly are - the kernel will load them automagically
[03:02] <lupine_85> when was the last time you tried it?

[03:02] <mwright1> Hi,does nayone know how I do the equivalent of init 3 in redhat
[03:02] <lupine_85> works better (assuming you're on x86)
[03:02] <migla> lupine, I've booted into that too. Same problem.
[03:02] <lupine_85> mwright1: runlevels 2-5 are identikit on Ubuntu
[03:02] <terlmann> mright1 go to a command console. if you use gnome type /etc/init.d/gdm stop ,replace gdm with kdm if you use kde.
[03:02] <mwright1> ok so what do  Ido
[03:02] <mwright1> to get equivalent
[03:03] <mwright1> I just want X windows not to start its crashing the system
[03:03] <mwright1> I can boot to single mode
[03:03] <jrib> Douggie: you shouldn't download and overwrite current versions, that usually causes trouble.  Can you remove codeblocks for now and see if you can resolve your other problems?
[03:03] <mwright1> I tried a Hoary to Dapper dist-upgrade -- was a disaster
[03:03] <lupine_85> assuming you don't want the GUI, you'd have to modify one of the runlevels to not load [g|k] dm, then "telinit [runlevel] "
[03:03] <terlmann> lupine: what if they are not present?
[03:03] <jake1> can someone assist me in getting my GPS working
[03:03] <lupine_85> mwright1: you should have upgraded to breezy before dapper ;)
[03:04] <mwright1> lupine: How do I get it to boot up without X windows now?
[03:04] <lupine_85> terimann: then the hardware wouldn't have been detected in a new install of Dapper either
[03:04] <lupine_85> sheesh
[03:04] <mwright1> I am hoping I can fix it
[03:04] <jake1> !GPS

[03:04] <Caplain> where does synaptic store the .deb files it downloads?

[03:05] <mwright1> hey doesn't anyone know how to disable xwindows ,its like operating system 101
[03:05] <lupine_85> mwright1: ^ ^
[03:05] <terlmann> no it aint :( !!!!!
[03:05] <terlmann> breezy forever!
[03:05] <terlmann> dapper sucks!
[03:05] <mark4> hi all - quick question.  I've got ffmpeg compiled from source, and don't want apt-get to install over it.  so when something depends on ffmpeg I just want it to get installed without install ffmpeg, how can I do that?
[03:06] <mwright1> you can't get it to boot without xwindows?
[03:06] <lupine_85> mark4: dpkg --ignore-deps -i ?
[03:06] <foxiness> on ubuntu keyboard input not accepted after a reboot ?
[03:06] <terlmann> using instructions 3 months ago, i tried to install the deps to add wma,mp3 etc.... regiered libs were not in the depository!
[03:06] <jrib> mark4: did you install ffmpeg to /usr/local?
[03:06] <lupine_85> Or you could make an empty packge for ffmpeg and install that, I guess
[03:06] <mwright1> how can I fix this broken install nowwww without wiping the conteeents of the disk
[03:06] <mark4> jrib: yes
[03:06] <Douggie> jrib: Uninstalled codeblocks and now apt will install again....how weird
[03:06] <lupine_85> mwright1: with difficulty :(
[03:06] <jrib> mark4: it should take precedence over the ffmpeg that gets installed in /usr I think
[03:07] <mwright1> I have clues on solaris / fedora / RHEL
[03:07] <mark4> lupine_85, fine for installing individual packages, but then apt thinks i've got unresoloved dependencies when I go to do anything else
[03:07] <mwright1> first thing I need to know how to do is to disable X windows on bootup
[03:07] <lewix> Neo8750, it stil not working...thats weird
[03:07] <mwright1> I can do it by going single but I need networking
[03:07] <mwright1> how do I do this
[03:07] <lupine_85> mwright1: ^ solution up there ^
[03:07] <mwright1> sorry I'm running 16 colours and I missed it, it's a bit hard to scroll can you kindly repeat or PM
[03:07] <lewix> i can't manage to make the screensaver change by itself
[03:08] <lupine_85> ok... in /etc/rc2.d there is a symlink called either gdm or kdm
[03:08] <lupine_85> erm, S??gdm/S??kdm
[03:08] <mwright1> ok sochange the Sgdm to Kgdm
[03:08] <vanky> what's up
[03:08] <lupine_85> yep
[03:08] <mwright1> ok Iknow how to do that
[03:08] <mwright1> cheers I'll go give it a shot
[03:08] <vanky> hello

[03:11] <mwright1> I have mybroken dapper -- can I continue an install of that from the media
[03:11] <phaedrus44> im 30 years old....just started using tissues instead of my sleeve
[03:11] <lupine_85> mwright1: you can try to continue the dist-upgrade
[03:12] <lupine_85> whether you've got a working system afterwards is another question
[03:12] <seshomaru> Caplain, do you mean apt?
[03:12] <lupine_85> what you're doing is really unsupported :(
[03:12] <lupine_85> still, worth a try
[03:12] <mark4> jrib, it apears you're right. cheers, not the neatest solution (relying on PATH order) but It'll do!
[03:13] <seshomaru> Caplain, apt stores debs in /var/cache/apt/archives , if that helps
[03:13] <Caplain> seshomaru: yeah
[03:13] <Caplain> i found it
[03:13] <corsair_> can anyone tell me how to get direct rendereing enabled on dapper
[03:13] <Caplain> thanks

[03:22] <Paddy_EIRE> what format and will that matter as ubuntu chooses when it pleases to see them in the folder ??? i would love to know why sometimes it sees other days not at all
[03:23] <lupine_85> that one you need ndiswrapper for, IIRC
[03:23] <Jaak_> how can i set ndiswrapper to auto dhcclient my connection?
[03:23] <lupine_85> works though
[03:23] <Karmst> can anyone see what I'm typing?
[03:23] <Jaak_> dhclient i mean
 what component is responsible for this and can it be re-installed in a simple way
[03:23] <redcard> russ: Well, there's your answer :)
[03:23] <mwright1> whats cool in edgy apart from oo 2.0.3
[03:24] <CromagDK> anyone knows a ftp client with features like saving ftp sites and ssl stuff :)
[03:24] <Jaak_> damm my whole question was messed up.... let me retry: How do i get wpa_supplicant to auto dhclient my connection?
[03:24] <lupine_85>  russ: my mistake. That one works out of the box
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  no clue there. i cant say that ive ever had an issue like that.
[03:24] <fyrestrtr> CromagDK: sudo apt-get install gftp
[03:24] <lupine_85> See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported :)
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  plus i tend to use kde, not gnome
[03:24] <nanbudh> could any body guide me on nfs?
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> !nfs
[03:24] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[03:24] <Karmst> I'm so glad you people ignore people who need help
[03:24] <CromagDK> fyrestrtr: i did that, i dont see where i can save my sites there.
[03:25] <CromagDK> might be blind tho
[03:25] <Dr_Willis> Karmst,  type slower.... :)
[03:25] <fyrestrtr> CromagDK: once you login to a site, add it as a bookmark
[03:25] <snarf> I installed kubuntu-desktop on my ubuntu because I wanted to try KDE, but it replaced all my bootup/shutdown logos and art. I like the Ubuntu stuff better, how can I get that back?
[03:25] <i4get> lol
[03:25] <CromagDK> ah
[03:25] <CromagDK> ok
 been happening from day one of dapper, and i have re-installed many times since and the prob still remains
[03:25] <Karmst> How do you change the source.list on the installation?
 kde, but why...lol
[03:25] <Karmst> it locks at 40%
[03:25] <lupine_85> mmmmmmmm kde
[03:25] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  and you expected reinstalling to fix your not-reading-differnt-image-formats- correctly?
[03:25] <redcard> Hmm.. the Hardware page on h.u.c is unclear if the version 2 will work
[03:25] <foxiness> Keyboard input not accepted any more ,what i need to do now ?
[03:25] <russ> i see it in device manager, but not in my network settings....
[03:26] <Karmst> when I have it setup for network
[03:26] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  because the more i used gnome.. the more i realized how brain-dead it was. :)
[03:26] <i4get> lol
[03:26] <i4get> yes it is
[03:26] <redcard> russ: If it's like the WUSB54G version one, the comments are to first remove islsm_usb and then remove and add back ndiswrapper
[03:26] <skunkworks> Hello - could some one look at a pastebin?
 whats the matter with gnome...i started with kde in mandrake and never really liked it...aint it a performance hog??
[03:27] <redcard> If it's like the WUSB54G v4, the driver is the rt2500
[03:27] <Karmst> no it's brain dead to make a OS that the repositories can't be located during install
[03:27] <foxiness> Keyboard input not accepted any more , what shoud i do now ? = this input form othe platform =
[03:27] <Jack_Sparrow> foxiness: Can you get to recovery mode...?
[03:27] <nanbudh> well i have this problem i add an entry to /etc/fstab file but the system does not mount the directories at boot time. if i give mount command from the terminal it mounts ok. i have checked and verified that fstab entry is ok. any ideas why this happens?
[03:27] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  its missing all the features i used
[03:27] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  and ive not noticed kde being a performacen hot.
[03:27] <Paddy_EIRE> oh, like what
[03:27] <DoubleT> hi all
[03:27] <russ> i am new at this....know where i can find a detailed walkthrough....???....
[03:27] <DoubleT> I have a relative simple question: I'm new to linux and I installed Ubuntu Server
on mine it is noticeably slower where as gnome zips along
[03:28] <Dr_Willis> Paddy_EIRE,  file manager  is not what i like for the main reason.
[03:28] <Paddy_EIRE> nautilus
[03:28] <Karmst> DoubleT did you get around the 40% lock when it scans the mirrors?
[03:28] <redcard> russ: Honestly, no.. I mean, best I can suggest would be help.ubuntu.com, searching that.. and going to google to look it up
[03:28] <DoubleT> installation went all perfect
[03:28] <Karmst> glad you got a good install
[03:28] <DoubleT> installed it using VMWare
[03:28] <Karmst> mine is f-ed up
[03:29] <Karmst> oh
[03:29] <DoubleT> hmm, too bad
[03:29] <russ> o.k.....thanks....
[03:29] <Paddy_EIRE> wow can Konqueror not be used with gnome??
[03:29] <lupine_85> ah, wait... that was a different card. wusb54gv2 is a "BCM4320". so yes, ndiswrapper
[03:29] <Dr_Willis> DoubleT,  there are vmware images for  Ubuntu-Dapper-Server - allready made up I belive.
[03:29] <Karmst> I have a production server down
[03:29] <Karmst> because of it
[03:29] <DoubleT> can someone tell me how to get the interfaces ip adress ?
[03:29] <Karmst> AND NOONE WILL HELP ME
[03:29] <lupine_85> pretty easy. Just install ndiswrapper-utils and feed it your windows drivers
[03:29] <lupine_85> DoubleT: ip addr show
[03:29] <lupine_85> Karmst: what's wrong with using the CD?
[03:29] <DoubleT> lol, its so easy when you know
[03:29] <DoubleT> ...
[03:30] <Karmst> the install locks at 40%
[03:30] <Karmst> when scanning the mirror
[03:30] <redcard> Karmst: Did you 1) Check the CD for defects, and 2) Attempt the alternate Install CD?
[03:30] <Karmst> I did both
[03:30] <DoubleT> what are you trying to install ?
[03:30] <DoubleT> server ?
[03:30] <Karmst> when I don't config the nic
[03:30] <Karmst> it installs
[03:30] <Jaak_> How do i get wpa_supplicant to auto dhclient my connection?
[03:30] <Karmst> but now I have no network support
[03:30] <SillyZ> Karmst, did you try burning the cd at a slower speed, and also running and md5sum against the .iso image before burning it to make sure the iso image is good to begin with ??
[03:30] <Discoloda> howdy
[03:30] <Karmst> Sillyz the image is fine
[03:31] <Karmst> it's not the CD
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > Karmst
[03:31] <SillyZ> Karmst, did you md5sum it ?
[03:31] <Karmst> it's that the repository is dead
[03:31] <Chain|Q> hello people... anyone with an iBook around? i installed Ubuntu (6.06, ppc) on my G3/600 iBook. Works well. One tiny annoyance: it constantly downclock the CPU to 400Mhz, even when running from AC power.And while switching freq, the machine stops for half a sec. I find this annoying. Is there a way to make it stop switching CPU freq when running from AC power?
[03:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Karmst:  Did you add or change any repos.. did you run Automatix or easyubuntu?
[03:31] <lupine_85> Karmst: switch the repo to a different one?
[03:31] <redcard> Karmst: Then you have two choices. 1) Enter another set of mirrors in /etc/apt/sources.list or 2) wait until the repo comes back up
[03:32] <Karmst> how do I do that on the install?
[03:32] <lupine_85> e.g. us->ca ?
[03:32] <lupine_85> edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:32] <Discoloda> i did a Xgl & Compiz tutorial a long time ago and it went through something i am interested in seeing again, a directory that had the options for each item in the gdm session selection
[03:32] <Karmst> on the cd?
[03:32] <lupine_85> yep
[03:32] <lupine_85> well, it's on a ramdisc at that point
[03:32] <jake1> is there a way to determing if my CPU is SSE2 or SSE3
[03:32] <Karmst> hmmm
[03:32] <jake1> in Ubuntu
[03:32] <redcard> jake1: cat /proc/cpuinfo might tell ya
[03:32] <Discoloda> err "i did" as in i read it and followed the directions :)
[03:32] <Chain|Q> jake1: type into a shell: cat /proc/cpuinfo i guess
[03:32] <fyrestrtr> Discoloda: /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom
[03:33] <Chain|Q>  without i guess :)
[03:33] <Discoloda> that wasnt it..
[03:33] <Zach> can anyone help me with an ubuntu upgrade problem
[03:33] <Karmst> ok it tells me I can't write to the /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:33] <DoubleT> hmm, installing a LAMP SERVER, how can I check if everthing is OK ?
[03:33] <Zach> ?
[03:33] <lupine_85> Karmst: you need to edit as root/sudo
[03:33] <redcard> Karmst: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Karmst: Also note that just because a CD live runs does not mean there are no defects.  You DID do the cd check for errors correct.?
[03:33] <pompom> hi
[03:33] <lupine_85> Jack_Sparrow: he's net installing for some unknopwn reason
[03:33] <Karmst> yes I did
[03:34] <Karmst> I'm not trying to net install
[03:34] <Karmst> I'm doing a LAMP install
[03:34] <pompom> i'm having some problems with proftp on ubuntu
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > Karmst

[03:34] <pompom> I can't use fxp , anybody could help please ?
[03:34] <fyrestrtr> Discoloda: /usr/share/xsessions/
[03:34] <Zach> my GUI wont load and I need help
[03:34] <lupine_85> if you're not net installing, you don't need the repos...
 which app is best for making or converting a pic to an icon??
[03:34] <redcard> Ugh.  I totally wish we didn't have that Lamp install option :P
[03:35] <Karmst> Jack I'm not using the enter key for punctuation
[03:35] <nanbudh> thanks for response. now i really need help with monodevelop anybody? i must have something lacking cos my monodevelop ide does not show any visual layout screen of the form as in visual studio.net. i thought there is a gui developer in monodevelop. please help
[03:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: Hi, I havent made one in Ubuntu.. Not sure.. the only graphic editor I have used it gimp
[03:35] <DoubleT> LAMP server should install PHP and MySQL?
[03:35] <redcard> DoubleT: Yes.
[03:36] <Zach> Can anyone help me?
[03:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Karmst: 3 short lines in a row is using it for punctuation..  with 8090 user in the channel that is NOT appreciated
[03:36] <jake1> what is stepping?
[03:36] <jake1> under my CPU info
[03:36] <nanbudh> yes zach i am a complete novice but i lend my ear
none of the images i have converted to png ico xpm show up when i choose an icon for X app and then again sometimes they do??
[03:36] <DoubleT> redcard, how can I verify if everything is runnign ?
[03:37] <SillyZ> ps -ax | grep -i nameofapplication or processname
[03:37] <nanbudh> ...any monodeveloper  here please?
[03:37] <redcard> DoubleT: What sillyz said :)
[03:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: No idea, I am not artistic, I just use premade icons
[03:37] <pompom> Hi, I can't make work fxp with proftp on ubuntu . can anyone help me please ?
[03:37] <Zach> nanbudh I am having issues with the loading of my GUI in ubuntu
[03:38] <DoubleT> redcard/silly, what does it do ?
[03:38] <nanbudh> plzzzzz
[03:38] <Zach> i upgraded from bager
[03:38] <nanbudh> ok zach what is it?
[03:38] <Zach> and now it doesnt work
know of a place where i can get app specific icons?? like rosegarden and ardour
[03:38] <nanbudh> did u make a clean install?
[03:38] <Zach> graphical user interface
[03:38] <TheDude> help with apache 2 please. who can help ?
[03:38] <jrib> !ask
[03:38] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:39] <nanbudh> ok tell me why is there no gui designer in monodevelop. did my install go wrong?
[03:39] <Discoloda> ping
[03:39] <redcard> DoubleT: ps -ax gives you a listing of all processes | sends it to the next application , and grep "whatever" searches for text in whatever it's fed
[03:39] <Zach> i did an upgrade from my current system and then when I had to restart it no longer could load
[03:40] <Healot> monodevelop has GUI designer?
[03:40] <Karmst> ok
[03:40] <Karmst> Question
[03:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: No... just look around..
[03:40] <foxiness> "There was a problem with a recent update. If you have updated your Ubuntu system on September 14, 2006, and are unable to log into your system, please follow these instructions. We apologize for the inconvenience. " what ? again?!
[03:40] <Karmst> can Ubuntu 6.0 Desktop be used as a server?
[03:40] <nanbudh> zach why dont you make a clean install from alternative i386 cd? that is without a problem
[03:40] <Karmst> what will be missing from the install?
[03:40] <TheDude> i have 2 apache2 problems - 1) when running apache2, i get "(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 127.0.0.1:80      no listening sockets available, shutting down"
[03:41] <Dasnipa> DoubleT, what redcard is talking about is one of the most powerful things in all of computing.
[03:41] <nanbudh> yes thats what i read on their website. they said there is an integerated GTK designer
 what size and format does an icon have to be inorder for it to show up in Alacarte?
[03:41] <lupine_85> TheDude: what other service are you running on port 80?
[03:41] <Zach> along with the update issue my computer has also stopped reading from any of my 3 cd rom drives which makes it impossible to use the alternate cd
[03:42] <redcard> foxiness: Yes, again.. but this one seems milder.
[03:42] <TheDude> lupine_85, donno
[03:42] <Zach> any ideas
[03:42] <TheDude> how can I check
[03:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: You arer asking questions on a subject I know nothing about.. Not to mention I am barely awake and nursing my first cup of coffee...
[03:42] <TheDude> ?
[03:43] <nanbudh> none. better go to a comp shop and get the box engineered. hardware people can do something
 sorry mate...im of to google....annoying when devs dont seee fit to include an icon for there prog
[03:43] <Zach> yeah but i got my comp for free and so it's worthless to me to go have it looked at for money
[03:44] <redcard> Zach: It does sound like hardware
[03:44] <fyrestrtr> TheDude: netstat -l | grep www
[03:44] <Zach> yeah i think that part of it is software
[03:44] <d3ads0ul> if anyone has a few minutes, i need a little help
[03:44] <Zach> some of the sockets on my motherboard i think are no longer functioning
[03:44] <TheDude> tcp        0      0 localhost:www           *:*                     LISTEN
[03:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Zach: You have done the basics like open it up and check for loose connections etc..
[03:45] <fyrestrtr> TheDude: something is already running on port 80 then/
[03:45] <Zach> jack yes i have and flopped conections around
[03:45] <redcard> Zach: We're talking standard run of the mill IDE connections, right?
[03:45] <Zach> nothing seems to work
[03:45] <nono_> join #ubuntu-fr
[03:45] <redcard> Zach: You've "flopped" stuff around?
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Zach: When you power up are the devices recognized by the bios?
[03:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Zach: These cables are color keyed... directional...
[03:46] <Zach> yes it sees the cd rom drive and the drive powers up but it wont boot from cd
[03:47] <redcard> Zach: Did you switch your jumpers?
[03:47] <redcard> If the drive is a jumpered drive?
[03:47] <Zach> i have tried that
[03:47] <TheDude> fyrestrtr, o.k. problem solved - the apache was already running, and I thought "apache2" is restarting the server by itself. i restarted it with init.d/apache2 resdart
[03:47] <Hybernate> hi this is going to seem like a realy stupid question  but i just installed latest version from the alternate cd and it lets me decide on a password for the new user but not a user name
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Zach: You have set the cmos to boot from cd correct..  boot sequence
[03:47] <Hybernate> so what name do i use to log in
[03:47] <Zach> yeah
[03:47] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: are you doing an oem install?
[03:48] <Hybernate> yes
[03:48] <fyrestrtr> then the user is 'oem'
[03:48] <Zach> i even restricted the boot to just the cdrom and it doesnt work
[03:48] <redcard> Zach: How old is the computer/CDROM/bios?
[03:48] <Zach> old
[03:48] <TheDude> my second apache2 problem, is that i can access the server only with localhost and not with the inner ip address
[03:48] <Zach> i got it from my school
[03:48] <TheDude> so I can't access it from other computers on my network
[03:49] <Zach> it has a p3 650 in it 320 ram, new cd roms and old ones
[03:49] <quiet> TheDude, did you set up your default site properly??  (apparently not)
[03:49] <Neo8750> gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad what excatly is a bad set?
[03:49] <redcard> Zach: I would see if there's more current bios or see if there is a restriction on booting based on where the CDROM is located
[03:49] <TheDude> quiet, define properly :-)
[03:49] <quiet> Neo8750, license restricted codecs and stuff.
[03:50] <quiet> TheDude, at al!?
[03:50] <Zach> how do i update the bios
[03:50] <quiet> all
[03:50] <Zach> thats something i have never done
[03:50] <quiet> TheDude, /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
[03:50] <fyrestrtr> TheDude: edit /etc/apache2/ports.conf
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Zach: Updating the bios.. on an old box like that could turn it into a doorstop..
[03:50] <quiet> i doubt he has to touch ports.conf
[03:50] <Neo8750> quiet: thanks
[03:50] <Hybernate> what is there no password for the root accses then in a oem install?
[03:50] <Zach> really
[03:50] <Zach> why
[03:51] <quiet> Hybernate, sudo
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> Hybernate,  direct logging in as root is disabled.
[03:51] <Hybernate> Dr_Willis . thx
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Zach: Someone mentioned jumpers... did you remove the non-detected drives from the bus and set the one working one as master?
[03:51] <Hybernate> quiet . Thx
[03:51] <Zach> i have tried all of them
[03:51] <quiet> Hybernate, root is locked by default... use sudo. If you don't know how to enable root, then you don't need the responsibility of root. :)
[03:52] <Zach> and all of the drives work on other computers
[03:52] <sonix1> hehe
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Zach: You have tried all the jumpers? or all the drives
[03:52] <Zach> both
[03:52] <sonix1> root is easy to enable if you know what sudo and passwd do
[03:52] <TheDude> o.k. problem solved. ports.conf had 127.0.0.1 only
[03:52] <TheDude> 10x
[03:52] <Zach> the drive will power up
[03:52] <Dr_Willis> sonix1,  but thats a test to see that the user can handle that power. :P
[03:52] <Zach> all of them will
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Setting root password is not advised
[03:52] <Jack_Sparrow> !root
[03:52] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:52] <sonix1> Dr_Willis: sure is :P
[03:53] <Hybernate> my guess is il reinstall 20 or more times untill i get it right or pester all in here:)
[03:53] <Zach> non of them will read
[03:53] <quiet> TheDude, ports.conf should, by default, have simply "Listen 80"
[03:53] <Alana21> just a non-linux related question, how do i know who is the owner of www.siteoz.info ?
[03:53] <Zach> *none
[03:53] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: you really shouldn't be doing an oem install.
[03:53] <mof> Zach: what is the current jumper setting? master/cs/slave
[03:53] <quiet> Alana21, whois
[03:53] <snarf> I installed kubuntu-desktop on my ubuntu because I wanted to try KDE, but it replaced all my bootup/shutdown logos and art. I like the Ubuntu stuff better, how can I get that back?
[03:53] <sonix1> alana21: look for a whois lookup site
[03:53] <Zach> master
[03:53] <Alana21> whats a good whois site
[03:53] <sonix1> search google
[03:53] <sonix1> :p
[03:53] <sonix1> google is ya friend :p
[03:53] <fyrestrtr> Alana21: type 'whois siteoz.info' from a terminal
[03:54] <quiet> linux also has a whois lookup client.
[03:54] <quiet> ;)
[03:54] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr . i didnt work to start with the live cd and ddbl on the install caus the live cd wount start on my machine so i was told to do the oem install
[03:54] <chr> hi..i am new to linux and i wonder how can i find the installation directory of a program
[03:54] <Alana21> nice.. thanks
[03:54] <sonix1> quiet: it does, but via a browser is easy for a newbie
[03:54] <TheDude> oh, one more mysql question - how do I allow a mysql user, to login from localhost and the entire local network (B class 192.168.*)
[03:54] <TheDude> ?
[03:54] <Zach> i am self taught so bare with me
[03:54] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: you were told to do the oem install, or you were told to use the alternate cd to install?
[03:54] <fyrestrtr> TheDude: #mysql
 open a terminal and type "whereis nameofapp" and press enter
[03:54] <sonix1> TheDude: you have to have them as <user>@<ip>
[03:55] <russ> here's a stupid question....where do you find the kernel version....???....
[03:55] <fyrestrtr> russ: uname -r
[03:55] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr . the alternate cd i just picked the oem sens im realy new to this and oem sounded easyer
[03:55] <sonix1> TheDude: instead of @127.0.0.1
[03:55] <russ> t.y.....
[03:55] <quiet> sonix1, seems the browser method is more long winded and time consuming than "whois siteoz.info
[03:55] <TheDude> sonix1, yeah I know. i tried doing <user>@'192.168.%'
[03:55] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: oem is not the easy one.
[03:55] <TheDude> sonix1, but it's not working
[03:55] <Paddy_EIRE> !rosegarden
[03:55] <ubotu> rosegarden: An integrated MIDI sequencer and musical notation editor. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.1pl4-2 (dapper), package size 4 kB, installed size 36 kB
[03:56] <TheDude> sonix1, not from localhost, and not from the network
[03:56] <sonix1> quiet: it is, but if you don't know the basics of terminal, web browser can be easier, but a longer process
[03:56] <red> i need help getting an extended desktop working
[03:56] <jake1> i want to try to install OS X to my ACER notebook
[03:56] <tchung> anyone know whether I can get a realplayer plug-in for firefox?
[03:56] <Paddy_EIRE> !rosegarden4
[03:56] <ubotu> rosegarden4: music editor and MIDI/audio sequencer. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0-1.2ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 6741 kB, installed size 18332 kB
[03:56] <quiet> sonix1, agreed.  :)
[03:56] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr . i wanted a more user friendly install interface i thought that was it :)
[03:56] <Neo8750> linux: because a PC is a terrible thing to waste
[03:56] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: nope, you need the text-mode install.
[03:56] <Paddy_EIRE> !icons
[03:56] <ubotu> Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE)
[03:56] <sonix1> TheDude: user@<ip> can be any remote ip
[03:56] <sonix1> or host
[03:56] <quiet> Neo8750, the brain is a terrible thing to taste?
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> tchung: firefox site has the latest info...
[03:56] <quiet> :)
[03:57] <Paddy_EIRE> !alacarte
[03:57] <ubotu> alacarte: easy menu editing. In component main, is optional. Version 0.8-0ubuntu12 (dapper), package size 57 kB, installed size 472 kB
[03:57] <Neo8750> quiet: no its a delightful thing to taste
[03:57] <mof> jake1: illegal and messy, slow and ugly.
[03:57] <migla> chr, they install in many places... if you click the "status" button in synaptic, choose "installed", right-click on a package name, you can choose "properties" and then the tab "installed files".
[03:57] <TheDude> sonix1, but I want to restrict it to only the inner network, and localhost
[03:57] <sonix1> 192.168.x.x, and 10.x.x.x just happens to be reserved as non internet
[03:57] <Hybernate> fyr is the so much diffrense when its installed?
[03:57] <quiet> Neo8750, only for zombies. :D
[03:57] <fyrestrtr> TheDude: first of all, mysql by default only listens on localhost, no matter what IP address you put for the user, its not going to make a difference. You need to make sure mysql is listening on your network ip first.
[03:57] <voraistos> alacarte doesnt work with me
[03:57] <Neo8750> so thats why my skin is rotting
[03:57] <jake1> mof: my friend has it on his, and it runs better than on my eMac
[03:57] <fyrestrtr> TheDude: and as I told you before, ask mysql questions in #mysql.
[03:57] <jake1> shitload faster
[03:57] <sonix1> TheDude: you will have to restrict it to your subnets, eg 192.168.x.x
[03:57] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr is it worth reinstalling under text to get it done proper?
[03:57] <jake1> but he has an Intel Duo i want to do it on an AMD64
[03:57] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: for you, yes :)
[03:57] <TheDude> k. thank you sonixl and fyrestrtr
[03:58] <sonix1> TheDude: your getting into subnetting, so yeah as frestrt has said
[03:58] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: yes, there is a difference. oem is for system builders, not for end users.
[03:58] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr . will it still install as smoothly with duo core and all?
[03:58] <sonix1> fyrestrt: or in my case, goto the computer shop, and buy a keyboard and mouse for the oem :p
[03:58] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: 'smooth' is a relative term.
[03:58] <quiet> Hybernate, yes...
[03:59] <quiet> should.
[03:59] <fyrestrtr> jake1: we do not support pirated internet software in any ubuntu channel. Do not ask that here.
[03:59] <sonix1> but in a business use, oem has to be a system build strictly
[04:00] <quiet> fyrestrtr, what'd he say that was pirated software??
[04:00] <jake1> i didn't ask..........
[04:00] <sonix1> fyrestrtr: we don't support core software that can be pirated :p
[04:00] <jake1> i just said i want to do it
[04:00] <fyrestrtr> quiet: i want to try to install OS X to my ACER notebook
[04:00] <RogerRabb> many of you guys had much experience with latex? I'm wanting to convert a document using small code examples into html - and wanting those code examples to be available for me to edit in the html file.. eg it should be in a css file.. so a latex to html+css strict converter?
[04:00] <jake1> i did not ask how to do it
[04:00] <jake1> i simply said i want to do it
[04:01] <fyrestrtr> either way, don't mention that here.
[04:01] <sonix1> mac OS not even related to linux or IBM based pcs
[04:01] <fyrestrtr> and don't argue semantics :)
[04:01] <chr> thanks..with whereis command i find its in bin directory...i guess bin is the equivalent of program files in windows..
[04:01] <tchung> anyone know whether I can get a realplayer plug-in for firefox?
[04:01] <fyrestrtr> RogerRabb: latex is not the solution for that, you need a mere template -- so something like perl/php/python or any of those will work.
[04:02] <quiet> chr /bin is more like windows/system 32
[04:02] <fyrestrtr> tchung: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:02] <quiet> chr with system utility programs.
[04:02] <tchung> ta
[04:02] <quiet> chr /usr/bin is more like program files
[04:02] <sonix1> quiet: except that fact that windows relys on modules (Dll's) all over the shop :p
[04:02] <jake1> chr: sorta
[04:03] <RogerRabb> fyrestrtr well.. latex does have a built in listing system for exactly that - showing code examples - with highlighting
[04:03] <quiet> anyways... i gotta run offsite, back in a few.   (sonix1, yes I know... :P )
[04:03] <jake1> what quiet said
[04:03] <fyrestrtr> RogerRabb: actually, you could even do this with xml+xsl+xslt, but it would be overkill -- however, you'd get very enterprisey with it :)
[04:03] <RogerRabb> and it seems it's designed to be converted into many formats - docbook, pdf, etc
[04:03] <sonix1> quiet: hehe :p, gotta keep it simple for the new people, but that's how linux grows :p
[04:04] <ootput> wellp, here I go with an edgy upgrade on my test box
[04:04] <ootput>  (wish me luck :D)
[04:04] <Jack_Sparrow> What is the easiest way to share a printer (Hp on LPT1) on this box running ubuntu with a laptop running Ubuntu connected through a router
[04:04] <RogerRabb> this choice was mainly because litterally so many people already use latex for exactly what I'm doing.. just not so much for xhtml+css generation (small articles, not websites or anything like that)
[04:04] <fyrestrtr> Jack_Sparrow: cups, and enable sharing.
[04:04] <jrib> ootput: good luck, I upgraded yesterday.  A few bumps but everything is working smoothly now
[04:05] <ootput> jrib: did you run into any E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg errors?
[04:05] <jrib> ootput: yes, many
[04:05] <ootput> ootput: any sage advice ?
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> fyrestrtr: A little longer explanation, I thought I had cups running..
[04:05] <ootput> (=
[04:06] <sonix1> beagle is giving me the crappers, but i think it's due to reiserfs :(
[04:06] <stian> Hola
[04:06] <fyrestrtr> Jack_Sparrow: you have to enable sharing on it, there is a wiki article that explains it all.
[04:06] <jrib> ootput: just make sure you install ubuntu-desktop and everything is up to date before you reboot
[04:06] <red> anyone know anything about gettin an extended desktop on a laptop
[04:06] <Hybernate> quiet . is there some way to tell if it has the duo core corecltly there ?
[04:06] <sonix1> Jack_Sparrow: www.ubuntuguide.org
[04:06] <fyrestrtr> red: rate of success depends squarely on your video chipset and how well its supported.
[04:07] <TheDude> I have a home network consisting of two windows computers with a switch. I'm running ubuntu with VMWare, and I want to allow a shared folder in ubuntu, to be edited freely by the windows computers
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> fyrestrtr: I have tried two different artices that had me make some changes to cups files but didnt get me there.. Sonix.. will try that one.. thanks
[04:07] <sonix1> Jack_Sparrow: managed to get a 1315 PSC working via samba, so that guide works
[04:07] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: install linux-686 to enable smp support.
[04:07] <MinisterPolite> about to reboot after kernel update... any caveats?
[04:07] <ootput> jrib: how did you resolve an error like: E: Sub-process /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure --apt || true returned an error code (100) ?
[04:07] <sonix1> Jack_Sparrow: for windows clients, i used Adobe PPD driver
[04:07] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr is that somet i can shoose in the text based install?
[04:07] <ootput> jrib: did you run into such problems?
[04:08] <red> so how do i get the extended desktop to work on my notebook
[04:08] <fyrestrtr> ootput: edgy questions in #ubuntu+1 please
[04:08] <UKMatt> if I install an autopackage, it gets put into apt so can be pulled off through synaptic right?
[04:08] <Jack_Sparrow> sonix1: Ubuntu only
[04:08] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: you should be able to, if not, you can just install it afterwards.
[04:08] <jrib> ootput: usually I just removed the package and then dist-upgraded again.  That seems to be the easiest way
[04:08] <chr> so when browser ask me the application to use for oppening a specific file...and i want to choose another program besides the default..lets say mplayer...should i always browse in usr/bin to find it or the where is command or any other command to find it and choose it.....
[04:08] <sonix1> Jack_Sparrow: i had no issues from the guide from ubuntu, the windows client's where the ones that gave me the s**ts
[04:09] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr . how can i see if its already in there and have found the duo core?
[04:09] <kLyPsO> Buenas
[04:09] <UKMatt> if I install an autopackage, it gets put into apt so can be pulled off through synaptic right?
[04:09] <jake1> OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.......... i just found my keys
[04:09] <fyrestrtr> type uname -a if it says SMP, its there.
[04:09] <jake1> i've been missing them for like a year
[04:09] <jake1> well..... ok not that long
[04:09] <jake1> really only 3 days
[04:09] <jake1> but it felt like a year
[04:09] <sonix1> Jack_Sparrow: but the ubuntuguide wiki set the samba printer up fine, and was the same a guide i had in a magazine
[04:10] <insane_alien> does anyone know how to get grub to boot an XP recovery partition?
[04:11] <ootput> jrib: apt-get remove, or aptitude purge?
[04:11] <sonix1> insane: if the partition is in the winXP boot menu, it will be in the f8 menu after the grub menu
[04:11] <insane_alien> winXP boot menu is inaccessible
[04:11] <red> how do i get the extended desktop to work on my laptop
[04:12] <jrib> ootput: apt-get, if that didn't work I did dpkg -r.  I try not to use aptitude for dist-upgrades
[04:12] <fyrestrtr> red: install the binary drivers for your video card first.
[04:12] <sonix1> insane: if that's inaccessable, you have no chance :(
[04:12] <red> already did
[04:12] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr it just said somet about preempt and dates and such
[04:12] <insane_alien> really? damn. i'll keep trying
[04:12] <fyrestrtr> red: then, choose either xinerama or twinview (if you have nvidia)
[04:12] <kLyPsO> Alguien habla castellano?
[04:12] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: then you don't.
[04:13] <jrib> !es
[04:13] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[04:13] <kLyPsO> Thanks
[04:13] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: it should say something like this
[04:13] <red> its an ati radeon x1300
[04:13] <fyrestrtr> Linux mini-me 2.6.15-26-686 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Sep 8 20:16:40 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[04:13] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr just like that exept the smp
[04:13] <fyrestrtr> red: do you have the ati control panel?
[04:14] <red> no
[04:14] <sonix1> insane: unfortuneatly, it's something that doesn't concern code writers, as a NTFS partition of a win-xp partition for windows use only is of no concern to linux
[04:14] <red> how do i get that
[04:14] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: then you don't have dual core support, install the 686 kernel
[04:14] <fyrestrtr> red: install the binary drivers from ati.com -- instructions are in the wiki
[04:14] <insane_alien> sonix, the partition i want to boot is a fat32 partition
[04:14] <Hybernate> fyr il try to figure out how to do that if it dosent follow the text based install
[04:14] <haully_> im using nvidia ac97 audio on kubuntu, all sound work fine, except for enemy territory, i get this: Um, can't do GETOSPACE? someone else solved this problem?
[04:14] <lupine_85> NTFS is currently being actively worked on
[04:15] <xukun_> is't just me or are ubuntu repos are very very slow. I cant seem to come more than .. just look at this: "41% [25 gnome-games-data 523856/3447kB 15%]                      13.1kB/s 31m43s"
[04:15] <lupine_85> erm, ignore me ;)
[04:15] <jrib> xukun_: try a mirror
[04:15] <fyrestrtr> Hybernate: first, install the base system. Then worry about customization.
[04:15] <xukun_> jrib, What do you mean?
[04:16] <red> the drivers that it installs are fglrx
[04:16] <jrib> xukun_: instead of us.archive.ubuntu.com you could try ca.archive.ubuntu.com for example.  Or any other two-letter country code
[04:16] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr . base? oem or text?
[04:16] <sonix1> insane: you will get a fat32 partition to boot, but after that grub has done it's job, and if it don't work, there's something more to it
[04:16] <fyrestrtr> text
[04:16] <red> are the ones you are refering to fglrx
[04:17] <insane_alien> so how do i tell grub to make it boot
[04:17] <lupine_85>  xukun_: they are lightning fast for me. "Fetched 30.6MB in 3s (8334kB/s)"
[04:17] <insane_alien> it doesn't appear in the menu
[04:17] <insane_alien> the partition should be fine
[04:17] <xukun_> lupine_85, which mirors?
[04:17] <insane_alien> its been restored from a back up thats been used several times already
[04:17] <sonix1> insane: i haven't seen a recovery partition, but with some luck if there's win NT based boot files, it will boot
[04:17] <fyrestrtr> red: just, install the ones from ati.com -- the kernel module name is the same 'fglrx' but the drivers are different.
[04:17] <lupine_85> xukun_: GB
[04:18] <sonix1> insane: so it's a ghost image?
[04:18] <TheDude> i'm trying to share a folder in my home network, but when I try to enter that folder from a windows computer, it's asking me for a user and password
[04:18] <insane_alien> no its not a ghost
[04:18] <xukun_> anybody using the dutch mirrors?
[04:18] <insane_alien> it came with the computer AFAIK
[04:19] <sonix1> insane: what computer is it?
[04:19] <insane_alien> god knows
[04:19] <sonix1> insane: only thing you can try is to boot it the same as the main win XP drive
[04:20] <sonix1> insane: if it don't boot, there's not much you can do
[04:20] <xukun_> lupine_85, can you paste your sources.list some where for me?
[04:20] <kasina> hi all
[04:20] <sonix1> insane: or if possible, do a BIOS drive select, and select the drive and direct- boot
[04:21] <insane_alien> i've found a tutorial on the web it appears to be what i'm after
[04:21] <DoubleT> hmm, how do I install phpMyAdmin on my LAMp Server?
[04:21] <sonix1> insane: but if you could access this drive b4 linux, it's all after the windows xp grub boot
[04:21] <OmniD> I have a .RAR file!! I have no clue is there even a commercial means to extract this file?
[04:21] <klm-> How can I make firefox understand wmv's embedded to websites with the command embed ?
[04:21] <fyrestrtr> DoubleT: sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin
[04:22] <sonix1> omniD: there's a rar for linux, can be found in the repos
[04:22] <fyrestrtr> OmniD: sudo apt-get install unrar
[04:22] <mr_smeegal> anyone know of updated network-manager for ubuntu the one included is not to good at connecting to open hotspots
[04:22] <OmniD> yay
[04:22] <terlmann> yes ,connect to the freespire deb repos!
[04:22] <sonix1> fyre: don't waste ya time :p
[04:22] <fyrestrtr> klm-: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats (read the bit about firefox plugins)
[04:22] <lupine_85>  xukun: just change the two-letter country code to gb
[04:22] <sonix1> quick off the mark
[04:22] <insane_alien> i've never accessed this partition before. i only got the comp to work on today
[04:22] <DoubleT> fyrestrtr, couldn't find package if I do that command
[04:22] <lupine_85> e.g. dk.archive.ubuntu.com -> gb.archive.ubuntu.com
[04:22] <klm-> fyrestrtr: thanks
[04:22] <OmniD> sonix1, fyrestrtr, Package unrar is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:22] <fyrestrtr> DoubleT: enable the universe and multiverse repos
[04:22] <OmniD> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[04:22] <OmniD> is only available from another source
[04:22] <OmniD> E: Package unrar has no installation candidate
[04:23] <lupine_85> !info unrar
[04:23] <ubotu> unrar: Unarchiver for .rar files (non-free version). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:3.5.4-0.1 (dapper), package size 84 kB, installed size 216 kB
[04:23] <lupine_85> !multiverse
[04:23] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[04:23] <DoubleT> fyrestrtr, how do enable those ?
[04:23] <terlmann> everyone use the freespire/linspire debian repos to get wanted functionality out of linux!
[04:23] <OmniD> I've already set up multiverse!!
[04:23] <DoubleT> I only have a consoel
[04:23] <OmniD> And universe
[04:23] <lupine_85> terimann: erm, no
[04:23] <fyrestrtr> OmniD: sudo apt-get update
[04:23] <terlmann> mabye not,but with alien,...
[04:23] <GaiaX11> Why dont they fix this problem when installing in expert mode. I mean allowing people not setting normal user passw (for using sudo), instead of root password? Where can I suggest this fix to ubuntu developers for the next release (Edgy)?
[04:23] <sonix1> yeah it's a multiverse
[04:24] <lupine_85> they're .debs...
[04:24] <OmniD> fyrestrtr, same thing
[04:24] <OmniD> you try installing it!
[04:24] <mr_smeegal> anyone?
[04:24] <sonix1> unrar or unrar-free
[04:24] <mr_smeegal> updated network-manager
[04:24] <etak> hi everyone
[04:24] <Neo8750> installing what?
[04:24] <lupine_85> ...but they're linspire...
[04:24] <OmniD> either? They seem to be missing
[04:24] <fyrestrtr> DoubleT: edit /etc/apt/sources.list, and uncomment the lines that start with deb, by uncomment, I mean remove the #
[04:24] <Neo8750> sonix1: depends do you want the free one or not?[
[04:24] <terlmann> yea,but their debian..
[04:24] <sonix1> neo: yep
[04:24] <StephenL> anyone else have compiz break today?
[04:24] <lupine_85> alien won't do anything to them, though
[04:24] <DoubleT> fyrestrtr, ok, gonna try that
[04:24] <terlmann> and they have synaptic support.
[04:24] <lupine_85> *sigh*
[04:24] <sonix1> terlmann: debian but in different spec
[04:25] <terlmann> apt get works withem.
[04:25] <lupine_85> read up on dependencies and repositories before you recommend something like that
[04:25] <Neo8750> freespire isn't bad it just for the more common less know it type user
[04:25] <william__> Could installing drivers on my XP machine cause Ubuntu not to boot?
[04:25] <sonix1> terlmann: distros can have different package names, eg gtk2 etc
[04:25] <terlmann> yea,but the compat issues are minamized for things like gimp,etc
[04:26] <d3ads0ul> if anyone has a few minutes, i need a little help
[04:26] <lupine_85> that's not all they have different ;). Isn't debian still gcc-3.4 ?
[04:26] <terlmann> libs and apps will work i think
[04:26] <lupine_85> key word: "i think"
[04:26] <sonix1> terlmann: using a pure debian package can be a conflict, linspire would be worse..
[04:26] <terlmann> I am going to try it!
[04:26] <lupine_85> if a debian libc6 overwrites your ubuntu libc6, you're broken
[04:26] <terlmann> today!
[04:26] <lupine_85> well, suit yourself
[04:26] <lupine_85> it it works, congrats
[04:26] <terlmann> i will tell you if it works
[04:26] <d3ads0ul> i cant get embedded videos to stream.  I have to download them first to watch.  They do play however, so the codecs are fine
[04:27] <sonix1> like using a mandrake package on redhat/fedora, they package and place things different
[04:27] <lupine_85> while you're at it, why not add the official debian sid repos as well? ;)
[04:28] <sonix1> lupines_85: won't do that, you will find the versions of librarys will progress faster than ubuntu stable versions
[04:28] <Hybernate> any one here using a amilo xi 1546 with Ubuntu?
[04:28] <red> how do i access the ati control panel
[04:28] <lupine_85> I know ;)
[04:28] <sonix1> hehe :P
[04:29] <ladydoor> out of curiosity, is puTTy legal in the US?
[04:29] <lupine_85> ladydoor: sort of
[04:29] <sonix1> dunno i don't live in the US :P
[04:29] <tourach> it's a pretty dangerous prog
[04:29] <ladydoor> lupine_85: sort of?
[04:29] <lupine_85> yeah... it lets all the terrorists blow up the world!
[04:29] <sonix1> US has alot of cyptrographic laws
[04:30] <lillpelle> US is a sort of strange country ;)
[04:30] <lupine_85> ladydoor: most things regarding encryption in the US are "sort of" dodgy
[04:30] <sonix1> certain securtiy of things are allowed and some aren't
[04:30] <fyrestrtr> red: install the drivers from ati.com first, then you will be able to access the control panel.
[04:30] <ladydoor> lupine_85: ah.
[04:30] <red> i just installed the drivers from ati.com
[04:30] <sonix1> even the freedom of speech can be dodgy in the US
[04:30] <lupine_85> the government wants to be able to hack your intarweb if it needs to
[04:30] <sonix1> haha
[04:30] <terlmann> lupine i am not stupid :)
[04:30] <red> do i need to reboot
[04:30] <ladydoor> sonix1: yeah, especially recently
[04:30] <fyrestrtr> red: yes
[04:30] <red> ok
[04:31] <sonix1> i guy goes on tv and speaks on prime time tv about the government, gets locked up
[04:31] <Hybernate> what do u have to make your private net hackeble for the goverment?
[04:31] <sonix1> in the state
[04:31] <lupine_85> fyrestarter: surely not?
[04:31] <der0b> fyrestrtr: does he need to reboot or just restart X
[04:31] <lupine_85> this is linux, after all!
[04:31] <lupine_85> but then again, it is ATi...
[04:31] <sonix1> howard stern is supposablely allowed to do what he did on radio, but has to pay thru the nose to stay on
[04:32] <sonix1> so goes to satellite
[04:32] <sonix1> but oprah can talk about oral sex
[04:32] <sonix1> that's fine, cos she a black lady
[04:32] <lupine_85> mmmmmmm oral sex
[04:32] <sonix1> :p
[04:32] <sonix1> hahah
[04:32] <DoubleT> fyrestrtr, thnx. It is working now !
[04:32] <sonix1> it's true but
[04:32] <lupine_85> erm, and again
[04:33] <sonix1> could not care about the DMCA, RIAA goes after US interests only
[04:33] <sonix1> ARIA (our industry) wouldn't go as far as they do
[04:33] <sonix1> no paramount or sony studios in australia
[04:33] <sonix1> lupine_85: you in yank land?
[04:34] <migla> What's so dangerous about a dough-like mixture of whiting and boiled linseed oil; used especially to patch woodwork or secure panes of glass?
[04:34] <lupine_85> UK :)
[04:34] <sonix1> hehe :P
[04:34] <sonix1> that's good then
[04:34] <sonix1> :p
[04:34] <sonix1> uk is going down this summer :p
[04:34] <sonix1> gotta get the ashes back :p
[04:34] <lupine_85> well, our government is in total meltdown right now. Apart from that it's all good
[04:35] <lupine_85> what with our current and future assured sporting victories ;)
[04:35] <sonix1> lupine_85: only because blair sucks to much duyya c*k and aus can say no
[04:35] <lupine_85> hehe
[04:35] <sonix1> we only have SAS and few army troups
[04:36] <sonix1> hehe :p
[04:36] <sonix1> :p
[04:37] <sonix1> i never know that australia makes puppy linux, found out the other day
[04:37] <Hybernate> Sonix1. is it hard to get wlan set up in ubuntu?
[04:37] <Neo8750> at least your goverment didn't approve a bill allowing wiretaps with out any probably cause aka no need to be terrorist etc..
[04:37] <Neo8750> well doesn't needed to be proved first
[04:37] <sonix1> Neo: australian government can trace anyone they want
[04:37] <sonix1> just the states have so many telcos now
[04:38] <sonix1> and australia don't
[04:38] <kalessin> yop
[04:38] <sonix1> that's all that crap is
[04:38] <sonix1> 20 arabs got arrested in 2 days this year
[04:38] <sonix1> in au
[04:38] <sonix1> they would have be traced
[04:38] <sonix1> and were for a year+
[04:39] <Neo8750> well reason it bothers me is because i just lost that right as of like 2-3 days ago
[04:39] <sonix1> apparently you can buy phone conversations in the usa
[04:39] <red> okay i got the ati control panel, but everytime i try to change it to Big Desktop Horizontal, it just goes back to clone mode after i restart
[04:39] <sonix1> so it's just as possible
[04:39] <fyrestrtr> #ubuntu-offtopic is there for a reason.
[04:39] <Neo8750> you can buy anything if you got the money[
[04:39] <sonix1> red: is your ati drivers upto date?
[04:40] <Neo8750> sorry fyrestrtr my bad i'll go there an talk to the whole 10 people
[04:40] <red> should be, i just installed them from ati
[04:40] <sonix1> Neo: lol
[04:40] <Crazed> how important is /etc/modprobe.d/aliases ? :P
[04:40] <fyrestrtr> heh, you'll know soon enough.
[04:40] <Crazed> fyrestrtr: to me ?
[04:41] <sonix1> red: i use nvidia cards, but in general any settings like that, can be fixed in xorg.conf, or the control they provide, and then gets messy :(
[04:41] <lupine_85> Crazed: very
[04:41] <Crazed> lol
[04:41] <Crazed> I accidently deleted it :P
[04:41] <Crazed> supose to open gedit but used rm D
[04:41] <Crazed> :D
[04:41] <red> ok
[04:41] <sonix1> Crazed: that's no funny, but very tragic :(
[04:42] <Morrowyn> how come ubuntu doesnt have wpa on wifi ?
[04:42] <Crazed> well shit happens
[04:42] <Crazed> so now im fucked sonix1  ? :D
[04:42] <der0b> !language
[04:42] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:42] <sonix1> Crazed: i know the feeling, in 1998, installed redhat, and wiped all partitions  :(
[04:42] <terlmann> hey lupine , ;) it does work, perfectly, the repo though has unresolvable deps,and you know what that means,so i am not going throu with it.
[04:43] <Crazed> lol der0b
[04:43] <sonix1> Crazed: if the file is gone, it's a reinstall most likely if you can't get it working
[04:43] <lupine_85> Crazed: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23521
[04:43] <lupine_85> sonix1: or just apt-get --reinstall ubuntu-minimal
[04:43] <lupine_85> erm, apt-get install --reinstall
[04:43] <sonix1> lupine: yeah that will do it providing he hasn't got 3rd party modules
[04:44] <sonix1> but for a stock standard it will work
[04:44] <Crazed> ghehe thx lupine_85
[04:44] <Crazed> now pray I didnt had any other entries there ..
[04:44] <lupine_85> luckily I had a backup!
[04:44] <sonix1> reinstalling a package doesn't guarntee tho :(
[04:45] <lupine_85> sonix1: true, but if it fails you can always reinstall. Hence, it's worth the try
[04:45] <sonix1> yeah true
[04:46] <sonix1> hehe i have more history of using linux w/o apt etc
[04:46] <sonix1> since in 1998 it wasn't common
[04:46] <sonix1> hehe
[04:46] <lupine_85> rpm--
[04:46] <DALARIN> hello today when i try to boot ubuntu grub said it didn't recognise the file system type. how do i fix the error any idea?
[04:47] <lupine_85> DALARIN: what did you do to it?
[04:47] <sonix1> lupine_85: didn't it run gnustep, with the dodgy panel with big icons hehe
[04:47] <jake1> how would i install an RPM using Alien if the RPM was designed for i386 x86 and i'm using x86_64
[04:47] <DALARIN> lupine_85: i turned it on
[04:47] <jake1> how would i force architecture
[04:47] <lupine_85> jake1: -dpkg -i --force-<thing>
[04:47] <DALARIN> lupine_85: then the error came up
[04:47] <lupine_85> not recommended though
[04:47] <lupine_85> DALARIN: and what did you do before you turned it off?
[04:47] <jake1> why isn't it recomended
[04:47] <jake1> ?
[04:47] <rambo3> what was xorg option for video not to use framebuffer . option "??" "off"
[04:48] <lupine_85> and did you turn it off correctly?
[04:48] <lupine_85> jake1: because mixing 32 and 64 bit binaries like that is generally a bad idea
[04:48] <Crazed> hrm
[04:48] <DALARIN> lupine_85: i had it on this morning listening to some music it shut down just fine
[04:48] <lupine_85> generally a chroot is the best way to go
[04:48] <Crazed> how can I get i2c-sensor to work ?
[04:48] <Crazed> sudo modprobe i2c-sensor
[04:48] <Crazed> FATAL: Module i2c_sensor not found.
[04:48] <lupine_85> DALARIN: and you shut it down properly?
[04:49] <DALARIN> lupine_85: i used the menu in the upper right corner
[04:49] <DALARIN> so how do i fix it
[04:49] <lupine_85> hrmh. could be a hardware failure of some sort... try booting into a live cd and mounting your hard drive from there
[04:49] <Crazed> lupine_85: you know how to get i2c-sensor working ?
[04:49] <lupine_85> nope
[04:50] <Neo8750> Crazed: did you install it?
[04:50] <DALARIN> i need a cd?
[04:50] <lupine_85> unless you've got an alternative boot method, yes
[04:50] <Crazed> I installed lm-sensors
[04:50] <lupine_85> there's not much you can do to fix it if you can't access it
[04:50] <Crazed> can't find the i2c package ?
[04:50] <Crazed> it's a kernel module or something from what I read :P
[04:50] <DALARIN> is there any way i can fix it from windows i don't have any cds at university
[04:51] <lupine_85> DALARIN: not really
[04:51] <lupine_85> does the recovery mode option in grub work?
[04:51] <DALARIN> no
[04:51] <DALARIN> that just tries to mount it read only
[04:51] <topynate> hi, does anyone know how to repair corrupted or missing file list files that are stopping me upgrading packages? a typical error is "dpkg: serious warning: files list file for package `cdrecord' missing, assuming package has no files currently installed."
[04:52] <tokenbad> well I got XGL installed and I love it...
[04:52] <Crazed> Neo8750: where can I find i2c ?
[04:52] <lupine_85> no, it tries to mount it in single user mode.
[04:52] <lupine_85> if you can't get a working linux instance running *somehow*, it's going to be nigh on impossible to fix
[04:52] <Jack_Sparrow> topynate: Have you changed your sources list manually or with a script like Automatix or EasyUbuntu?
[04:52] <DALARIN> i think i will just go back to windows, it never has this problem
[04:53] <DALARIN> this laptop doesnt like ubuntu
[04:53] <cal> trying to install libmotif3 and apt-get cant find it. but its right here!! - http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/libs/libmotif3 .. any ideas?
[04:53] <Crazed> it's working anyway ..
[04:53] <Crazed> lupine_85: you got any clue how to detect which sensor is your CPU sensor ? :P
[04:54] <fyrestrtr> !info libmotif3
[04:54] <Neo8750> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=473997
[04:54] <ubotu> libmotif3: Open Motif - shared libraries. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2.2.3-1.2ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 1197 kB, installed size 3004 kB
[04:54] <fyrestrtr> cal: enable multiverse, then try it.
[04:54] <Crazed> got 3 sensors on temp but I don't know which is CPU
[04:54] <lupine_85> erm, never
[04:54] <tech13> how do I view a log of what adept just did?
[04:54] <lupine_85> I'd imagine it'd be the highest temp though
[04:54] <appel> How to add sshd to statup ? (like in gentoo its rc-update add sshd default)
[04:55] <fyrestrtr> appel: its already added.
[04:55] <hockyhair> how do i auto start programs with gdm i created a .xsessions but im not sure how to use it from gdm
[04:55] <lupine_85> if it's not added, just symlink /etc/init.d/sshd to /etc/rc2.d/S??sshd IIRC
[04:55] <cal> fyre: i added this to the sources.list (multiverse) and it still didnt work : deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper multiverse
[04:55] <topynate> jack-sparrow: i have, but i've tried removing all the unofficial sources already. this all started when i tried to install compiz, if that's any clue
[04:55] <lupine_85> erm, /etc/init.d/ is the real file
[04:55] <appel> sweet.
[04:56] <hockyhair> anyone know how to auto start programs in ubuntu using the gdm
[04:56] <fyrestrtr> cal: did you run apt-get update ?
[04:57] <cal> no but i think the package manager in gnome did that when i started it up
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> hockyhair: you want to start programs when you login to gnome? system > preferences > sessions then startup tab.
[04:57] <hockyhair> i dont use gnome
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> cal: hit refresh on it, it doesn't do it on startup.
[04:57] <Tonren> How do I use an external monitor (projector)?  Usually it's Fn + F4, but that's the default laptop windows method.
[04:57] <hockyhair> but i do use the gdm
[04:57] <hockyhair> to login
[04:57] <fyrestrtr> hockyhair: you can't do it using gdm, gdm is just a login manager.
[04:57] <cal> i think i did
[04:57] <cal> i will try again
[04:58] <hockyhair> fyrestrtr: doesn't it use the .xsessions file or use to
[04:58] <Jack_Sparrow> topynate: There is a reason we advise people not to use those scripts.  Once you use them and install things from outside the repos it may work then but you have other problems later.  I suppose you dont have a backup from before you ran those scripts
[04:58] <hockyhair> is there something i can add to *.desktop
[04:58] <fyrestrtr> hockyhair: to do what exactly?
[04:59] <cal> what the heck is warty, dapper, breezy, etc? like server edition, desktop edition, minimal edition?
[04:59] <hockyhair> run a panel and some other apps i wanna run along side openbox
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> cal: no, just names for different releases.
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> dapper is the latest.
[04:59] <fyrestrtr> hockyhair: then gdm is not what you want to mess with :)
[05:00] <fyrestrtr> hockyhair: this is something that you will need to edit for openbox, and I don't know anything about openbox.
[05:00] <Tonren> Anyone know how to turn off a laptop screen and divert X to an external monitor?
[05:01] <cal> fyre: why is mutliverse not in there my default?
[05:01] <lupine_85> 'cos it's full of crud ;)
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> because its not enabled by default.
[05:01] <synjet> Tonren: tried the Fn-(F# key) where # varies with laptop?
[05:01] <cal> it seems to be working now. i did the refresh once, but that was before i added the lines to sources.list.
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> Tonren: first step, install the drivers for your laptop's chipset.
[05:01] <fyrestrtr> cal: you have to do the refresh everytime to change the sources list.
[05:02] <Tonren> fyrestrtr: the linux drivers?
[05:02] <topynate> jack_sparrow: you're right, i don't :(
[05:02] <cal> k i was wondering how to do that.. i was looking for like an apt-get daemon to do a restart on or something.
[05:03] <cal> fyre: lol i gave up and just installed libmotif3 manually, but then package manager complained about having to fix it... so i ran that... its 'fix' was to remove it .. lol.
[05:04] <cal> i thought it would just sync it up into its list
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> topynate: I have had no luck untangleing systems after running those scripts, maybe someone else may be able to help
[05:04] <fyrestrtr> Tonren: sure.
[05:04] <Jack_Sparrow> topynate: People have gotten no help from #Automatix either
[05:05] <fyrestrtr> cal: don't install stuff manually. Read the wiki on how to properly enable multiverse.
[05:05] <fyrestrtr> !multiverse > cal
[05:05] <polino> ola
[05:05] <Tonren> fyrestrtr: hmm... seems like ATI has some proprietary linux drivers on their site
[05:06] <Tonren> fyrestrtr: I wish I had known ATI hates LInux before I bought my laptop
[05:06] <fyrestrtr> Tonren: read the wiki first.
[05:06] <fyrestrtr> !ati
[05:06] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:06] <polino> tem algum brasileiro ai????
[05:06] <fyrestrtr> !br
[05:06] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[05:07] <topynate> jack_sparrow, i haven't used automatix... when i installed compiz i doubt it messed the whole system up, the only thing i had to do was add another repo
[05:07] <outofjungle_m> is there a tool in ubuntu to compile the kernel?
[05:07] <fyrestrtr> outofjungle_m: why do you want to compile one?
[05:08] <polino> como que fao para entrar no ubuntu br?
[05:08] <Tonren> fyrestrtr: oooh.  This might enable hibernation?!  Awesome!!!
[05:08] <jrib> polino: /join #ubuntu-br
[05:08] <outofjungle_m> fyrestrtr, i want to optimize the kernel a bit
[05:09] <fyrestrtr> outofjungle_m: for what purpose?
[05:09] <polino>  /join #ubuntu-br
[05:09] <jrib> polino: sem o espaco
[05:09] <polino> alguem me ajude
[05:09] <d3ads0ul> i have just used automatix to get codecs and swiftfox, as well as mplayer ff plugin.  But my embedded videos will not play.  i have been reading forums and following instructions, but to no luck
[05:09] <Tonren> fyrestrtr: I'm perplexed... should I get the open source drivers or the ATI website ones?   I want stability over functionality.
[05:09] <nicu> ok ym back with the vmware problem
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> d3ads0ul: we don't support automatix, please take your question to #automatix
[05:10] <d3ads0ul> i just installed yesterday, so i am new to this
[05:10] <nicu> i have created a virtual macine at http://easyvmx.com/
[05:10] <outofjungle_m> fyrestrtr, i'm building a dial-in server for a specialized purpose. i usually do gentoo, but i thhought i'll give ubuntu a try as its more user friendly
[05:10] <nicu> i have downlowdit
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> Tonren: you want the ati website ones, especially if you are on a laptop.
[05:10] <d3ads0ul> if there is a better way, then i wont use automatix
[05:10] <nicu> wat hapened next
[05:10] <nicu> :)
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> outofjungle_m: okay, see !kernel ;)
[05:10] <fyrestrtr> outofjungle_m: normally, people think they need to compile a kernel, when really they just need a module or so -- which is why I asked.
[05:11] <Tonren> fyrestrtr: k, cool
[05:11] <dujavi> Is it possible to run as root as in "root@host:~#"?
[05:11] <nicu> comone people need help ? :)
[05:11] <fyrestrtr> d3ads0ul: the easiest way is to read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[05:11] <fyrestrtr> dujavi: sure it is, but its not a good idea.
[05:11] <tech13> running ubuntu, booting with lilo on an all lvm partition (no seperate /boot partition),  upgraded the kernel and now lilo gives the error: "device-mapper: table ioctl failed: No such device or address" "Fatal: device-mapper: dm_task_run(DM_DEVICE_TABLE) failed"  any suggestions on getting a bootable system again (other then reformat)?
[05:11] <outofjungle_m> fyrestrtr, yeah, i understand. i can do the manual compile, but if there is a tool in ubuntu, i can save some minutes :)
[05:12] <fyrestrtr> outofjungle_m: there is, and its a refreshing change from gentoo :)
[05:12] <fyrestrtr> !kernel > outofjungle_m
[05:12] <fyrestrtr> outofjungle_m: see the query from the bot.
[05:12] <mdasilva_> has anyone installed ubuntu on a large usb flash drive?
[05:12] <fyrestrtr> tech13: normally, you must run the lilo setup again for it to recognize a new kernel. Why don't you just use grub?
[05:12] <outofjungle_m> fyrestrtr, wow, cool. thanks for the info
[05:12] <mdasilva_> im assuming you can treat it exactly like a hd install no?
[05:13] <reptyle> tech13, did you use a ubuntu generated kernel or your own?
[05:13] <tech13> fyrestrtr, ubuntu generated kernel.
[05:13] <outofjungle_m> fyrestrtr, actually, i'm liking ubuntu a lot.
[05:13] <tech13> reptyle, ubuntu generated kernel
[05:13] <tech13> fyrestrtr, though grub still has issues with lvm2.
[05:13] <reptyle> tech13, was it part of the update proccess or did you just decide to try a different flavor?
[05:14] <fyrestrtr> tech13: I won't be much help here, I don't use lilo ever since grub came along.
[05:14] <tech13> reptyle, upgrade process, and now i'm running my system from the install cd in rescue mode.  managed to get the gui going again to get onto x-chat.....
[05:14] <fyrestrtr> tech13: but I do remember, one thing about lilo - you must run its setup program if you install a new kernel. Try it.
[05:14] <reptyle> fyrestrtr, grub isn't the answer for some configurations.. most notably, software raid + lvm :)
[05:14] <Juftus> Hello! I have a fresh install of Dapper. I want to run a program using ISO-8859-1 encoding. How do I do that?
[05:15] <fyrestrtr> Juftus: what program?
[05:15] <reptyle> tech13, there are a couple of ways to handle it.  Depending on what is wrong with lilo.
[05:15] <fyrestrtr> reptyle: fedora, which defaults to lvm, uses grub. But I don't do software raid, so I don't know about that.
[05:16] <Juftus> fyrestrtr: xterm (actually in xubuntu, but I guess the solution doesn't depend on that detail).
[05:16] <tech13> I'm not doing a software raid either, but grub gave errors when trying to install it too.  something about root not mapping to a device.
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> tech13: that's easily fixed in grup by changing the mappings.
[05:17] <reptyle> tech13, do you have yyour root partition mounted?
[05:17] <tanath> can someone help me with this? http://pastebin.ca/171633
[05:17] <tech13> reptyle, yes
[05:17] <Frederick> foks anyone else here having problems to debug aplications wich yse magick core and magick wand? I cant debug them on gdb nor ddd
[05:17] <tech13> fyrestrtr, how do I do that?
[05:17] <reptyle> tech13, chroot /where/root/is/mounted; lilo -v
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> Juftus: encoding support is really something that's built-in to the program or terminal. Not something that you can activate to be honest.
[05:17] <fyrestrtr> tech13: the map directive :)
[05:18] <exs> How would I go about downloading a website for offline use?
[05:18] <fyrestrtr> tech13: its in the grub docs, I've had to use it once where I had a sata + ide mix setup.
[05:18] <Juftus> fyrestrtr: Or actually any terminal program that runs neatly in xfce but not gnome-terminal, since soooo much additional stuff is required if I want to use that on top of xfce. Sorry, but the guys on #xubuntu couldn't help.
[05:18] <fyrestrtr> exs: use wget.
[05:18] <fyrestrtr> Juftus: try rxvt
[05:18] <phaedrus44> what is the command to see all hard drive info
[05:18] <Juftus> fyrestrtr: No I got xubuntu-specific, just thought there might be a universal solution =:] 
[05:18] <fyrestrtr> Juftus: or mlterm
[05:18] <exs> fyrestrtr:  Well, I want to download 3dtotal.com and its a very large site.. I have time of course, but it won't catch external links and try to download the whole internet will it?
[05:19] <foxiness> what the diff butween the safe mode on ubuntu livecd and the normal 'this hint may fix my problem-
[05:19] <fyrestrtr> exs: depends on how you configure it, read the manual page for wget.

[05:19] <nacho_> hi
[05:19] <russ> how do you set up dual monitors....???....
[05:19] <fyrestrtr> !xinerama
[05:19] <ubotu> xinerama is using multiple monitors as one big monitor. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[05:20] <russ> ty....
[05:20] <exs> fyrestrtr:  thats the problem.. isn't there an application with a nice easy to use interface which is primariley for use with offline webpages (downloading whole websites)
[05:20] <nacho_> i have a question,,,, how can i change the default kde menu icon on kubuntu???
[05:20] <reptyle> tech13, do you have lvm running?
[05:20] <tanath> what repositories are needed for these packages? libgl1-mesa & libgl1-mesa-dri
[05:20] <tech13> reptyle, yes.
[05:20] <fyrestrtr> exs: most people don't find wget hard to use, but I haven't used anything else. There might be.
[05:20] <reptyle> tech13, do you have a /dev/mapper directory?
[05:21] <tech13> reptyle, yes.
[05:21] <Tamale> so, i'm getting conflicting information simply searching around... what kernel package should I download for my centrino (pentium m banias) laptop?   linux-686?   linux-image-686?  linux-image-2.6.15-26-686?
[05:21] <reptyle> tech13, can you pastebin your lilo.conf pls?
[05:21] <Juftus> fyrestrtr: Thanks, I'll try mlterm.
[05:21] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: linux-686
[05:22] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: What's different about the other two?
[05:22] <fyrestrtr> !info libgl1-mesa
[05:22] <ubotu> libgl1-mesa: A free implementation of the OpenGL API -- GLX runtime. In component main, is extra. Version 6.4.1-0ubuntu8 (dapper), package size 158 kB, installed size 488 kB
[05:22] <Elij> Tamale: : linux-image is an alias
[05:22] <Elij> for the latest
[05:22] <Elij> 2.6.15-26 is a version
[05:22] <tech13> reptyle, haven't touched it, but here it is... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23523
[05:22] <exs> fyrestrtr: couldn't you just give me the command how to download a whole webpage without external links
[05:22] <Tamale> so all three are the same thing?
[05:23] <Elij> last 2 are definately the same
[05:23] <fyrestrtr> I could, but then you'd be back here asking the same thing again. Take 2 minutes to read the manual, and then you'll know.
[05:23] <tanath> got it
[05:23] <Tamale> Elij: Then what's different about linux-686 ?
[05:23] <Tamale> I don't have SMP.

[05:24] <kilgost> Hi all
[05:24] <fyrestrtr> ermm ...
[05:24] <kilgost> I have question without relationship with Ubuntu
[05:25] <kilgost> Nobody use Api's Yahoo here ?
[05:25] <fyrestrtr> !anybody
[05:25] <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?
[05:26] <kilgost> thk fyrestrtr
[05:26] <SiliconViper> Heh, looks like I ran into this: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=254584 without paying attention.
[05:27] <SiliconViper> Apparently the bug is fixed, so I shouldn't have to worry. ;p
[05:27] <rambo3> it unistalls free86 fonts
[05:28] <foxiness> the system not accepted any input, when i test the live-cd i found on safe-grphics-mode it has the same problem but it work will on normal mode,what i can learn from this? vimdiff xorg.conf and gdm.conf ,nothing importent ... is there other thing i must to check?
[05:29] <rambo3> both keyboard and mouse?
[05:29] <kober> where can I download edgy?
[05:29] <rambo3> !knot
[05:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about knot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:30] <bet0x> where i can found a guide for remaster ubuntu cd?
[05:30] <reptyle> tech13, run lvm vgmknodes inside the chroot and then re-run lilo -v and see if it makes a difference.
[05:30] <rambo3> kober google edgy knot 2 download
[05:30] <fistfullofroses> is edgey knot the next distro?
[05:31] <tech13> reptyle, no change.  "lvm vgmknodes" didn't give any output, lilo -v has the same error message.
[05:31] <JackONeill> Anyone know where you go to add a printer on xubuntu?
[05:31] <foxiness> rambo3: no only keyboard
[05:31] <fistfullofroses> In XFCE that should all be in the settings manager
[05:32] <JackONeill> fistfullofroses, I can see the print manager, and the print backend selection - but nothing for adding a printer
[05:32] <difeta> hey all! My filesytem is formatedd to ext3. For some reason, over time, files dissapear in large quantities. In this case, my entire home directory and many other dirs in /usr. This has happened to me in the past on a server that just sits and processes nothing. What is the deal? This is getting very frustrating.
[05:32] <reptyle> tech13, your issue may be inside the chroot the /dev directory is usually populated by udev ... but since you've mounted via the resuce disk not all the device nodes may exist.  Also launchpad.net seems to have this error but I can't determine if its fixed/fixable or what since its from an older release.
[05:32] <Karmst> hey everyone
[05:32] <lewix> im trying to make my screensaver switch to another screensaver by itself as many times as possible

[05:33] <foxiness> rambo3: i hope you can find fix for this problem ,and to know i remove network-manager before the problme accoure
[05:33] <lewix> im quite confused tough. the screensaver software on system>preferences doesnt allow us to do that

[05:33] <foxiness> rambo3: no it not work elso on single mode

[05:34] <lewix> any idea please
[05:34] <rambo3> ok does it work on live cd ?
[05:34] <lewix> ?

[05:37] <RMorris84> !anyone > mama
[05:37] <reptyle> tech13, you can try this..... from outside the chroot, mv /chroot/dev /chroot/dev.old then
[05:38] <reptyle> tech13, mkdir /chroot/dev; mount -o,bind /dev/ /chroot/dev
[05:38] <reptyle> tech13, that should get you a /chroot/dev directory fully poplulated.
[05:39] <tech13> reptyle, ok, writing it down since outside the chroot doesn't have a gui....
[05:39] <mama> ok well when i try and add a printer it detects the printer but when i hit next nothing shows up like the manufacter or anything

[05:55] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems

[05:57] <tamale> Now if only I can get a 686 kernel working properly with my XGL / Compiz
[05:57] <luk> is there a command like mail to send mail on the internet ?
[05:58] <Luci3n> I have a usb key for wireless connecting to my home network how can i get it working
[05:58] <Ash-Fox> starkruzr, it's best you install 3rd party applications in /opt. If you're going todo package maintainer work, read Debian's package maintainer handbook.
[05:59] <tamale> StasIsLovE: Installing programs in Ubuntu linux is much easier than that.  Just use the synaptic package manager
[05:59] <Ash-Fox> luk, yes.
[05:59] <luk> Ash-Fox: which one ?
[05:59] <Ash-Fox> mail.
[06:00] <red> im using an extended desktop feature on my laptop to play a dvd, however when i make it full screen it switches screen, and im using VLC
[06:00] <red> why does that do that

[06:01] <AZzKikR> They took our jerbz!
[06:01] <Luci3n> no i been trying for a couple of days now
[06:01] <Ash-Fox> red, ask #vlc, I don't think anyone has the knowledge on that here.
[06:01] <red> ok
[06:01] <tamale> StasIsLovE: What I'm saying is you don't need to download things normally at all.. it's much better to look for a package that has everything needed for installation and scripts for putting them in the right places.. there is no "central" place for programs like there is in windows
[06:01] <Ash-Fox> StasIsLovE, I would install it to /opt/realplayer
[06:01] <red> there is no one in #vlc, anywhere else i can check
[06:01] <kozz> are there any mirrors for cdimage.ubuntu.com, with the edgy releases?
[06:02] <Ash-Fox> red, I'm sorry, I got confused, I meant #videolan
[06:02] <StasIsLovE> tamale, had difficulties with finding realplayer in synaptic....
[06:03] <StasIsLovE> Ash-Fox, Allright ill fo for that then... thanks
[06:03] <tamale> Do you have multiverse and universe repositories added?
[06:03] <i4get> ahh you have to enable the multi and uni for that
[06:03] <Ash-Fox> StasIsLovE, realplayer is located in the multiverse repository, I just checked.
[06:03] <Ash-Fox> !realplayer
[06:03] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:03] <StasIsLovE> Ash-Fox, you just serched for real player?
[06:04] <Ash-Fox> Yes.
[06:04] <Ash-Fox> It's in the multiverse repository.
[06:04] <tamale> Search only searches within the repositories you have
[06:04] <linopil> hit 900 ppl again
[06:04] <StasIsLovE> Ash-Fox, ok ill try igain
[06:04] <luk> Ash-Fox: mail only works for local sendings
[06:05] <Abst> 1) Is it possible to install ubuntu-server as 6.06? And 2) Can I do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop once the server is installed?
[06:05] <foxiness> rambo3: plz can you guide me step by step how can i do chroot ?
[06:05] <rambo3> ok
[06:05] <Ash-Fox> luk, it works for external if you install a mailserver.
[06:06] <voici> hey, how can i list all the users known to the samba password db ?
[06:06] <rambo3> where is linux installed do fdisk -l /dev/hda
[06:06] <kober> One thing I don't like about ubuntu is I can't get my .xinitrc/.xsession to be read by gdm/gnome so I have to use the startup manager
[06:06] <rambo3> foxiness, sudo  fdisk -l /dev/hda
[06:06] <foxiness> rambo3: if you try to mount it , now its on /home/ubuntu/root
[06:07] <luk> Ash-Fox: I have installed postfix... it's probably bad configured then
[06:07] <rambo3> ok so its already mounted? sudo chroot /home/ubuntu/root
[06:08] <StasIsLovE> Ash-Fox, hm strange i have all repositorys selected and i only have universe and restricted... =/ bun im sure iv seen multiverse before i installed compiz... strange =/
[06:08] <Ash-Fox> luk, if I recall correctly, the configuration files are in /etc/postfix
[06:08] <Ash-Fox> !easysource
[06:08] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[06:08] <foxiness> rambo3: done
[06:08] <Ash-Fox> StasIsLovE, try generating your sources.list with that.
[06:09] <rambo3> ok you are loged in there now . install console-data : apt-get install console-data
[06:09] <Ash-Fox> StasIsLovE, make sure you have 'dapper' selected.
[06:09] <Jack_Sparrow> StasIsLovE: How did you install compiz?
[06:09] <foxiness> rambo3: console-data is already the newest version.
[06:10] <yyy> I whan't to know how to setu[ the cron
[06:10] <rambo3> ok dpkg-reconfigure console-data
[06:10] <StasIsLovE> Jack_Sparrow, it was quite much easier then i expected, folowed instructions on ubuntu wiki, just installed few packeges from synaptic and it worked =)
[06:10] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[06:10] <StasIsLovE> Ash-Fox, ill look int to it, thanks
[06:12] <i4get> lag

[06:14] <Dr_Willis> then ya turn it off to do real work
[06:15] <thedash> can windows read ext3 partitions?
[06:15] <tamale> global transparency and window placement tools are far more than just "eye candy"
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> thedash,  yes it can with extra program

[06:16] <Dr_Willis> he left befor i could paste the url..
[06:16] <m3f> Hi guys, in which file would I put a custom route command that I want to be executed whenever a specific interface comes up?
[06:16] <firefly2442> Jack_Sparrow, it says my nvidia module doesn't exist
[06:16] <fyrestrtr> m3f: /etc/network/interfaces
[06:17] <rambo3> foxiness, see that locales are set and do apt-get -f install and then what you sad
[06:17] <Jack_Sparrow> firefly2442: Are you running 696 kernel and just started after the update?
[06:17] <Jack_Sparrow> 686
[06:18] <firefly2442> Jack_Sparrow, I had a ATI card in and replaced it, I'm running 686 kernel yes
[06:18] <SurfnKid> does anyone have Evolution running and could explain to me where I could hange the port number from 25 to 2525
[06:18] <SurfnKid> I dont seem to find the option
[06:19] <SurfnKid> s/hange/change
[06:19] <foxiness> rambo3: apt-get -f install ?? "us"
[06:19] <Karmst> can someone please try and run "sudo apt-get update" for me
[06:20] <Karmst> that has the US or GB repositories
[06:20] <i4get> Karmst: still having that hang problem?
[06:20] <Jack_Sparrow> firefly2442: I have 386 and 686 in my menu.. 386 works fine.. 686 has that problem that I have not addressed..
[06:20] <cypher1> what is the nature of URL i have to pass to rythmbox as a "radio station" ?
[06:20] <earthian> is there any possibility to see change log for an upgrade?
[06:20] <lewix> what's the difference between the shell and the Konsole
[06:20] <firefly2442> Jack_Sparrow, hmmm, lemme see if I have the old 386 and see if I can boot into it...
[06:20] <rambo3> foxiness, yes
[06:21] <Jaak_> can someone help me? When ubuntu starts, during the loading screen, when alsa driver gets loaded there is this loud "beep/pong" what can i do to prevent that?
[06:21] <fistfullofroses> take out the country code and see if your repos work
[06:21] <lewix> what's the difference between the Terminal* and the Konsole
[06:22] <Neo8750> depends what ya mean by differnces?
[06:22] <Neo8750> i mean they both are terminal programs that emulate console
[06:22] <earthian> lewix, no differences
[06:22] <lewix> Neo8750, i dont see any differences
[06:22] <foxiness> rambo3: did i need to recofigure locales ?
[06:23] <tempted> good morning everyone! ... it's 1:25... not so much morning
[06:23] <earthian> lewix, they are just two different clients
[06:23] <i4get> cipherfunk is the only one hanging on me on apt-get update
[06:23] <lewix> earthian, using the same commands?
[06:23] <Neo8750> thdey just have differnt features
[06:23] <rambo3> foxiness, if they are not set then yes
[06:23] <Neo8750> aka transparentness and tabs etc...
[06:24] <firefly2442> Jack_Sparrow, no luck with the 386 kernel :(
[06:24] <earthian> yes
[06:24] <AZzKikR> THEY TOOK OUR JERBZ!
[06:24] <foxiness> rambo3: ok thanks a lot man you are my hero of this week :)
[06:25] <earthian> is there any possibility to see change log for an upgrade?
[06:25] <earthian> is there any possibility to see change log for an upgrade?
[06:25] <earthian> :o
[06:25] <earthian> ups
[06:25] <firefly2442> Is there a way to do a "rescue" install to redo drivers and not touch the existing system?
[06:25] <earthian> :)
[06:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !repeat > earthian
[06:25] <m3f> fyrestrtr, thanks. so I would just throw the 'route add' command in there? it doesn't look like it executes each line, it looks more like it uses keywords as variables
[06:26] <fyrestrtr> m3f: man interfaces :)
[06:26] <m3f> fyrestrtr, oh, post-up
[06:26] <m3f> :)
[06:26] <jrib> earthian: aptitude changelog package

[06:34] <Karmst> jack how do i edit the firewall from the command line?
[06:35] <Hybernate> fyrestrtr: thx m8
[06:35] <trappist> Karmst: what firewall
[06:35] <Jaak_> why is sleep mode so buggy?
[06:35] <fyrestrtr> !firewall
[06:35] <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)
[06:35] <wobster> Hi everyone. Do ubuntu packages exist for madwifi?
[06:36] <Hybernate> is there a apt get command to uppdate the ati drivers aswell on dapper?
[06:36] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone else have this problem http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-145900.html

[06:36] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:36] <Karmst> How do I open up port 80 on my Ubuntu Server?
[06:36] <Ketsuban> I've configured dual-screen with Xinerama since I have neither ATI nor nVidia graphics hardware (it's a SiS integrated chip) and it works fine, except the mouse cursor isn't hidden when I move from one screen to the other, so I have two mouse cursors. This is confusing; is there any way to fix it?
[06:36] <fyrestrtr> Karmst: install something that listens on it, like apache
[06:37] <Karmst> fyrestrtr I think the firewall is preventing me from getting updates
[06:37] <fyrestrtr> Karmst: not likely.
[06:37] <Karmst> what could it be then?
[06:37] <fyrestrtr> how is it preventing you?
[06:38] <Karmst> well when I run "apt-get updates" it goes through a whole list of ERR
[06:38] <Karmst> I've changed the repo's now 12 times!
[06:38] <LeoStewart> could someone help me in setting up grub to dual-boot with Windows XP?
[06:38] <fyrestrtr> can you browse the web?
[06:38] <Karmst> I can ping google
[06:38] <fyrestrtr> !grub > LeoStewart
[06:39] <fyrestrtr> Karmst: can you browse it?
[06:39] <Jaak_> When ubuntu starts, during the loading screen, when alsa driver gets loaded there is this loud "beep/pong" what can i do to prevent that?
[06:39] <Karmst> I don't have a GUI
[06:39] <fyrestrtr> Karmst: telnet google.com 80
[06:39] <fyrestrtr> what do you get?
[06:40] <jrib> what is the name of the program that opens a box that you click on and gives you info about the button press?
[06:40] <joe_> when i cilck on printers
[06:40] <Karmst> connected to
[06:40] <Karmst> it connects
[06:40] <joe_> and i right click, then choose "make default"
[06:40] <joe_> what does that actually do, what config does that chagne/ command does that run?
[06:40] <fyrestrtr> Karmst: then the problem is not with a firewall.
[06:40] <mlux> hi there .. how do i install just the base system of ubuntu - no xorg, kde, gnome or anything else?

[06:41] <raxor> hi all, anyone know how to get WebKit running on Ubuntu?
[06:41] <isluga> ola
[06:41] <isluga> ola
[06:41] <Tamal1> hello all.. booted into my 686 kernel now..  unfortunately, instead of feeling faster everything feels less responsive than ever.  pentium m (banias) 1.4ghz with an FX5200 Go running dapper with XGL and Compiz
[06:41] <Tamal1> Any Ideas?
[06:41] <mlux> fyrestrtr: ok thanks
[06:41] <Tamal1> Synergy especially feels sluggist
[06:41] <Tamal1> sluggish
[06:41] <LeoStewart> fyrestrtr: i've read everything I could find on grub, but I still can't set it up correctly.
[06:41] <fyrestrtr> Tamal1: go back to whatever felt better.
[06:42] <LeoStewart> fyrestrtr: i know Windows XP is on sda2 and linux is on sda1
[06:42] <Tamal1> fyrestrtr: Isn't 686 better for anything newer than a pentium pro?
[06:42] <Tamal1> fyrestrtr: I don't really just want to "go back", I want to resolve the problem :)
[06:42] <fyrestrtr> LeoStewart: title Windows XP root (hd0,1) chainloader+1 boot <-- those commands, each on a separate line, will boot xp
[06:43] <elshadii> LeoStewart: is that where your boot partitions are?
[06:43] <fyrestrtr> Tamal1: how much ram?
[06:43] <Tamal1> 768 Megs
[06:43] <yair> www.google.com
[06:43] <LeoStewart> i have it as this right now:

[06:43] <LeoStewart> map             (hd1) (hd0)
[06:43] <LeoStewart> chainloader	+1
[06:44] <LeoStewart> but that does not work.
[06:44] <fyrestrtr> !pastebin > LeoStewart
[06:45] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: first, you should be doing the benchmark without xgl. Second, since you installed a new kernel, did you also rebuild your nvidia drivers? With each new kernel, you must rebuild the drivers.
[06:45] <LeoStewart> fyrestrtr: sorry, will use pastebin from now on.  But do you know what I have done wrong with that configuration?
[06:45] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: probably why it feels sluggish.
[06:45] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: I don't know what you mean by 'rebuild' the drivers
[06:46] <Tamale> I did get the new nvidiga-glx
[06:46] <Tamale> and linux-restricted-modules
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: re-compile them, re-install them.
[06:46] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: I've never compiled anything by hand.. I'm afraid I'd be very lost :|
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> LeoStewart: what error do you get when you mean 'it doesn't work'
[06:46] <pascal> I want to make a usergroup called "1giga": But "sudo addgroup --group 1giga" gives me an error message that states that I need a username that matches a regular expression configured through name_regex. What am I doing wrong?
[06:46] <elshadii> LeoStewart: windows really wants to be the first os did you install it originally on the primary master? I know I had to install it on the primary master then switch it over to the primary slave
[06:46] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: how did you install the nvidia drivers?
[06:46] <Tamale> apt-get install nvidia-glx
[06:47] <Tamale> apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-blah blah
[06:47] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: type that command in again, with the blah blah :)
[06:47] <Tamale> you mean with what i really typed?
[06:47] <elshadii> hahahahah
[06:47] <LeoStewart> elshadii: actually, I had windows booting up well just yesterday.  I forgot to backup my menu.lst before updating the linux kernel, and I forgot how I originally configured it.
[06:47] <fyrestrtr> yes, basically, go back to the nvidia wiki and type them in again.
[06:47] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.15-26-686
[06:47] <Vapour> hi all. I'm new to Ubuntu (and to Linux in general). is there any "good" place to start learning?
[06:47] <Tamale> that's what i did.

[06:48] <LeoStewart> fyrestrtr: I don't remember exactly what error I get, but it doesn't load, and tells me to restart.
[06:48] <pascal> jrib I get the same error message
[06:48] <kyja> dang it I want to get dosemu working !!
[06:48] <kyja> :(
[06:49] <b_52Centos> fyrestrtr:  oksorry
[06:49] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: Wow, I'm only getting ~1500 fps in glxgears.  I used to get ~3000 I think
[06:49] <jrib> pascal: maybe groups can't start with a number (I don't know)?
[06:49] <Tamale> and it used to be smooth.
[06:49] <Tamale> it's choppy now
[06:49] <Ketsuban> I've configured dual-screen with Xinerama since I have neither ATI nor nVidia graphics hardware (it's a SiS integrated chip) and it works fine, except the mouse cursor isn't hidden when I move from one screen to the other, so I have two mouse cursors. This is confusing; is there any way to fix it?
[06:49] <pascal> jrib I tried that
[06:49] <pantaloon> i haf question...how do i became linux expert?
[06:49] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: its because your drivers aren't installed (as I have been trying to tell you).
[06:49] <LeoStewart> my device.map says: (hd0)	/dev/sda
[06:49] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: go back to the nvidia wiki, and just redo the steps.
[06:49] <ciscosurfer> Vapour: you can check UbuntuForums.org and that will get you started out very quickly....check the Absolute Beginners section
[06:49] <pascal> jrib never mind that last thing
[06:49] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: How am I running compiz at all without the drivers working?
[06:50] <Vapour> will do that, ciscosurfer, cheers
[06:50] <pascal> jrib You were right, I just thought I tried that allready. thanks
[06:50] <SillyZ> when looking for new themes at say gnome-look.org, should i be looking for metacity or compriz themes?
[06:50] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: compiz doesn't use hardware acceleration.
[06:50] <ciscosurfer> Vapour: sure!
[06:50] <jrib> pascal: np
[06:50] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: just ... do what I said :)
[06:50] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: !?!? xgl is pure hardware accel, right?
[06:50] <fyrestrtr> SillyZ: metacity.
[06:50] <ciscosurfer> pantaloon: very c a r e f u l l y
[06:50] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: errm, no, its not.
[06:50] <SillyZ> fyrestrtr: thanks
[06:50] <elshadii> does anyone know if yesterdays issues with the nvidia-restricted drivers were resolved ?
[06:50] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: xgl is a opengl server running on top of X.
[06:50] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: Well, could you please point me to this nvidia wiki?  :)
[06:51] <fyrestrtr> !nvidia

[06:52] <Bennedetto> BUt anyways, im thinking this is bad right?
[06:52] <ciscosurfer> Bennedetto: let it do it's thing...it will install new versions
[06:52] <fyrestrtr> Bennedetto: #ubuntu-xgl :)
[06:52] <zeT^> fyrestrtr, oh, so can i use xchat and irssi at the same time ? :)
[06:52] <Bennedetto> fyrestrtr: i was already there... no replies
[06:52] <fyrestrtr> zeT^: sure
[06:52] <ciscosurfer> Bennedetto: you can stay here ;-)
[06:52] <Bennedetto> hehe
[06:52] <iceman24k> anyone got a url howto to install splash screens ?
[06:52] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: Is this information up to date?
[06:53] <fyrestrtr> Bennedetto: #xgl is also available for any burning sensations you might have while using xgl :)
[06:53] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: yes
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> I recall xchat ages ago having a 'shell' feature where one tab could be a terminal. :P then ya could have irssi in a tab
[06:53] <Bennedetto> ciscosurfer: but yeah, it is updating other parts of compiz, so is it safe to assume that the stuff its removing is now part of compiz-core, etc?
[06:53] <LeoStewart> fyrestrtr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23531 could you take a quick glance at that and tell me what I've done wrong?
[06:53] <fyrestrtr> zeT^: try the 'proper' xchat, not that gnome-xchat. You can get the real one from the repos.
[06:53] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: So just apt-get install nvidiaglx ?
[06:53] <Ketsuban> I've configured dual-screen with Xinerama since I have neither ATI nor nVidia graphics hardware (it's a SiS integrated chip) and it works fine, except the mouse cursor isn't hidden when I move from one screen to the other, so I have two mouse cursors. This is confusing; is there any way to fix it?
[06:53] <Paddy_EIRE> what would be causing no sound being played in Rosegarde
[06:54] <Paddy_EIRE> *Rosegarden
[06:54] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: ermm, you should read the wiki; my nvidia box is at the office, and I personally use the drivers from nvidia.com :)
[06:54] <ciscosurfer> Bennedetto: I believe so, but if you need to be sure, please check the forums for an answer....they're always updated
[06:54] <zeT^> fyrestrtr, yep, i use xchat not xchat-gnome, thank you
[06:54] <phatmonkey> i friend is having issues with the X server starting after updating - is that dud X server *still* in the repositories?!
[06:54] <lewix> is it bad to let people upload files on my windows partition from linux
[06:54] <Bennedetto> ok, ill give em a loko
[06:54] <Bennedetto> look*
[06:54] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: but in the end, what you really must know is. Everytime you upgrade the kernel (or change it), you must rebuild any binary drivers.
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> lewix,  i would say yes.
[06:54] <lewix> dr_willis , why ?
[06:55] <ciscosurfer> Dr_Willis: please clue me in: what is irssi?
[06:55] <MetaMorfoziS> is it any way to set up the conenction like this: http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/7759/adsad9.jpg
[06:55] <MetaMorfoziS> ?
[06:55] <Dr_Willis> lewix,  why SHOULD it be 'ok'  - is it ok for you to leave your front doors open? :P
[06:55] <iceman24k> how can you install "Splash Screens"
[06:55] <Dr_Willis> ciscosurfer,  a terminal/console irc client
[06:55] <ciscosurfer> Dr_Willis: thanks
[06:55] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: My problem is it's not finding any nvidiaglx package at all, even with the correct repositories enabled
[06:56] <iceman24k> Tamale nvidia-glx not nvidiaglx
[06:56] <ciscosurfer> fyrestrtr: enable your repos, and install nvidia-glx
[06:56] <fyrestrtr> LeoStewart: its chainloader+1 not chainloader      +1
[06:56] <ion_bidon> hello, I have installed ubuntu edgy on chroot with debootstrap, and when I apt-get update, I have Failed to fetch http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  MD5Sum mismatch
[06:56] <ion_bidon> any idea how I can fix the MD5Sum mismatch ?
[06:56] <fyrestrtr> ciscosurfer: thanks, but I have mine running the way I want :)
[06:57] <Tamale> iceman24k: it tells me that nvidia-glx is already installed, newest version
[06:57] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: its probably nvidia-glx
[06:57] <lewix> Dr_Willis, that's not my point. My point is  whether it's good or not for the hardrive
[06:57] <ciscosurfer> fyrestrtr: that was directed at Tamale...whoops
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> lewix,  you dident phrase it that way.
[06:57] <iceman24k> !splash
[06:57] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image.
[06:57] <ciscosurfer> fyrestrtr: wouldn't want to tell you what to do
[06:57] <fyrestrtr> ciscosurfer: you can, its not a problem. If I do it, that's another thing :)
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> lewix,  accessing the drive from linux is not going to hurt the drive.
[06:58] <rockviech> hey guys
[06:58] <rockviech> can anyone help me with wireless?
[06:58] <lewix> thanks
[06:58] <rockviech> i have an broadcom chip
[06:58] <ciscosurfer> fyrestrtr: touche
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> lewix,  writing to NTFS - may trash the filesystem.. but not harm the drive. :)
[06:58] <rockviech> installed the driver with ndiswrapper
[06:58] <rockviech> it says driver installed, hardware present
[06:58] <rockviech> but somehow i cant get my wioreless working
[06:58] <Frederick> folks does anyone here use mpi?
[06:58] <rockviech> doesnt find my netowkr
[06:58] <ootput> how do I prevent my monitors from going to standby mode (switching off) when viewing a movie?
[06:58] <GuBA> hello i need sourcelist of dapper-server ..
[06:58] <fyrestrtr> rockviech: have you read the wiki? and please don't use your enter key as punctuation.
[06:58] <rockviech> i read
[06:58] <rockviech> i did everythign there was
[06:58] <Tamale> anyone?
[06:58] <rockviech> didnt help
[06:59] <Tamale> nvigia-glx is already up-to-date
[06:59] <rockviech> my wireless doesnt get activated
[06:59] <fyrestrtr> GuBA: its the same as dapper.
[06:59] <AZzKikR> rockviech, and again, don't use the enter key as punctuation
[06:59] <rockviech> sorry
[06:59] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: uninstall it, and re-install it, along with the restricted modules.
[06:59] <Bennedetto> ciscosurfer: from what i can see atm, the newest update broke compiz again... so i'll wait to update
[06:59] <sImpLe_x> Que es mejor, descargarce el ubuntu por emule o en la pagina oficial?
[06:59] <fyrestrtr> !es
[06:59] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[06:59] <CapJackSparrow> rasputnik: hey man are u there?
[07:00] <rockviech> the thing is, it finds my chip, it finds the driver, but when i type eth0 into network manager, it says no connection
[07:00] <rockviech> but i get the signal bar on the bottom
[07:00] <ciscosurfer> Bennedetto: compiz uses some new-er progs that means you have to switch around your startup scripts to reflect the change >> adding csm, etc.
[07:00] <AZzKikR> rockviech, usually wireless interfaces are named ra0 or something like that
[07:00] <Tamale> uninstall how?  through synaptic ?
[07:00] <CapJackSparrow> i am unable to start any program in root previliges
[07:00] <CapJackSparrow> wat do i do?
[07:00] <rockviech> well, mine is called eth1, it worked a couple of days before, but i had to reinstall
[07:01] <ciscosurfer> Bennedetto: and compiz-start, for example
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> CapJackSparrow,  how are you starting them?
[07:01] <fyrestrtr> rockviech: iwlist eth1 scan <-- this works?
[07:01] <Bennedetto> ciscosurfer: yeah, but it wants to remove stuff that is still being used, like csm
[07:01] <GuBA> fyrestrtr, ok ... thx
[07:01] <CapJackSparrow> the normal way
[07:01] <Bennedetto> and cgwd
[07:01] <Ketsuban> I've configured dual-screen with Xinerama since I have neither ATI nor nVidia graphics hardware (it's a SiS integrated chip) and it works fine, except the mouse cursor isn't hidden when I move from one screen to the other, so I have two mouse cursors. This is confusing; is there any way to fix it?
[07:01] <ciscosurfer> Bennedetoo: hmmm....better wait and see then

[07:02] <rockviech> fyrestrtr: interface doesnt support scanning: no such device

[07:02] <AZzKikR> manmadha, right click on a movie file, then properties
[07:02] <manmadha> i have installed the w32 codecs
[07:02] <CapJackSparrow> the thing is that when i try to open any administrative programs
[07:02] <CapJackSparrow> they dont run
[07:02] <fyrestrtr> rockviech: hrmm, okay.
[07:02] <CapJackSparrow> previuosly they used to run and asked me for the password
[07:03] <CapJackSparrow> which when i typed the program started and i was able to make changes
[07:03] <manmadha> AZzKikR, ya i tried but.....it is openning in totem only...
[07:03] <kaot> Hi, um, what kernel security issue would that be?
[07:03] <CapJackSparrow> i want to add more users but the user program/utility is not working
[07:03] <AZzKikR> manmadha, you mean you changed the 'open with'  tabs with other VLC?
[07:03] <ciscosurfer> Bennedetto: then you'd better hold off....go to compiz.net for other/newer suggestions...the people over there have their act together with this stuff
[07:03] <manmadha> i am watching the movies in local site given by internet provider
[07:03] <rockviech> fyrestrtr: so what?
[07:03] <iceman24k> cannot find this ? /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image. anyone help ?
[07:04] <m4rk> hi there

[07:04] <m4rk> what software can i use to stream a webcam out to a webpage applet?
[07:04] <manmadha> AZzKikR, no....i want to change the default player to see the movies in local site
[07:04] <eleki1> hi all
[07:04] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: Should I reboot between removal and re-installation?
[07:04] <Dr_Willis> CapJackSparrow,  only the first user you made at install can do the 'root' stuff  by default
[07:04] <nonostradamus> fuck you
[07:04] <eleki1> I have a trouble with a ./configure.
[07:04] <eleki1> configure: error: "libxf86vm headers not found"
[07:04] <AZzKikR> manmadha, hmm
[07:04] <fyrestrtr> iceman24k: that looks like a gconf tree path. Try gconf-editor, then click on apps, gnome-session, options etc.
[07:05] <Ramunas> hello, I've just installed bittorrent-gui
[07:05] <m4rk> nonostradamus: OK but what software cal I use to stream a webcam out to a web page applet?
[07:05] <manmadha> AZzKikR, how to open them in vlc or some other??
[07:05] <eleki1> and I don't know whitch package install
[07:05] <lupine_85> eleki1: so install them
[07:05] <Ramunas> now how do I launch it?
[07:05] <iceman24k> !splash
[07:05] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image.
[07:05] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: after re-install, you should.
[07:05] <CapJackSparrow> Dr_Willis, i know that i login by that user but when i start the admin progs they dont run or ask for pass
[07:05] <manmadha> AZzKikR, how to change them??
[07:05] <Tamale> fyrestrtr: What about between the removal and the re-install
[07:05] <eleki1> I installed all I could found but I have always that error
[07:05] <lupine_85> search for the string in adept or synaptic, and it might find the -dev package you need
[07:05] <lewix> is it possible to copy directory
[07:05] <g333k_work> Hi, I unistalled gnome-power-manager and my gnome doesnt start after I put my user and password it stays there "loading" , when I unistalled this pkg it uninstalled gnome-session too
[07:05] <jrib> lewix: yes, cp -a
[07:05] <lewix> is there a command for that
[07:05] <lewix> thanks
[07:05] <g333k_work> how can I solve my problem?
[07:05] <Paddy_EIRE>  I'm starting a sound production course in the next week or 2, and am wondering if it will be a major problem if im using Rosegarden at home while they use Cubase and Sonar/Cakewalk will this be a disadvantage???
[07:05] <fyrestrtr> Tamale: I don't think you do, but you should just incase.
[07:05] <AZzKikR> manmadha, opening in VLC works for me when i right click a file, go to the open with tab, and change it there
[07:05] <majd> hey

its a fully fledged Sound Production course, working with and recording bands and also doing the odd backing track or 2
[07:07] <moconnor> Why do packages sometimes lie about their version number?  E.g. on Dapper "postgresql" is 7.5.16.1 but the package is just a metapackage that depends on postgresql-7.4, and so I end up with postgresql 7.4.12 installed, and not 7.5.16.1.  I've seen something similar with the "python" package.
[07:07] <Ramunas> hello, I've just installed bittorrent-gui, now how can I launch it?

[07:15] <axee> hi, quick question about partitioning ubuntu to dualboot windows, i have a 120gb disk, 50gb on linux, 510mb on swap, rest windows. I set this manually in the partitioning table, when i come to setup the primary hda stuff, it seems the space i have windows installed to is set to /hda1/media or something, any idea why?
[07:15] <axee> my other partitions seem fine though ^^
[07:15] <Shadow_wolf> i always wondered just what was in those scooby snacks....i think they were hash brownies, personally
[07:16] <zeT^> how can i change my "irc_name, user_name and all others in irssi ?
[07:16] <RogerRabb> I'm after a room to discuss various programming topics - more computer science than language specific..anyone able to suggest one or more rooms for that?
[07:16] <moconnor> (asking one last time): Why do packages sometimes lie about their version number?  E.g. on Dapper "postgresql" is 7.5.16.1 but the package is just a metapackage that depends on postgresql-7.4, and so I end up with postgresql 7.4.12 installed, and not 7.5.16.1.

[07:18] <Tamale> glxgears is still really choppy, compiz is sluggish, syngery is horrid and is eating all my cpu cycles, nvidia-settings doesn't start properly and this all happens in both the 386 and 686 kernels :[
[07:19] <total_meltdown> hmm... I don't know offhand manmadha, I would try saving it to the local disk, and then right-clicking and using "Open With..."
[07:19] <CapJackSparrow> does anyone know abt the package ntlmapms?
[07:19] <axee> RogerRabb: could you check this link for me, http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/2556/w2u310xn.png if my partition setup looks like that, can i be sure i wont lose windows
[07:19] <manmadha> total_meltdown, okkk
[07:20] <Shadow_wolf> i have a suspicion....when i went to reinstall and ran the partition program....it had the label set as /media/untitled instead of /........i dropped to a shell and out of the /target/sbin directory tried the e2fscklabel to set it to / but to no avail
[07:20] <total_meltdown> err... does Slackware 10.2 still use the 2.4 kernel, or do I have to get a previous version?

[07:20] <lupine_85> !kernel-source
[07:20] <ubotu> To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages
[07:20] <RogerRabb> axee you mentioned it was a 120gb drive.. yet the / partition ubuntu has there is for 125GB and also the swap size is twice what you said you set it to
[07:21] <Shadow_wolf> could be wrong, but i think most everyone is at this oint

[07:25] <CapJackSparrow> any1 from pakistan?
[07:26] <RogerRabb> axee.. well a few steps before that page you work on setting up your disk how you want.. hda is your first harddrive.. eg the 120GB drive. Each partition on that drive as numbered as 1, 2, 3, 4 etc.. so hda1 is the first partition on your first drive. Basically you can just look at the size of the partition, from there decide that the / partition which is 50GB should be paritioned.. and that the swap partition which is 500 whatever M
[07:26] <RogerRabb> or whatever you want
[07:26] <CapJackSparrow> any1 from iran?

[07:28] <lectus> Hi! I've tried Ubuntu Live CD, and I'd like to know a few things before installing to HD. Can someone help me?
[07:28] <Shadow_wolf> sooooooooo anybody have a clue as to why this machine can't find it's kernel with both hands and a flashlight with bootX pointing right to it?
[07:28] <Luci3n> anyone know how to configure a roper usb for wireless??
[07:29] <Shadowpillar_> Tamale: hrmm damn I dunno then, I havent ever messed with the go cards, try ubuntuforums
[07:29] <sharkie> so uh i'm new to ubuntu and was wondering in the add/remove is that all the programs there is to be installed?
[07:29] <sharkie> or can i use aptget
[07:29] <b_52Centos> hi could some one help me to setup nagios using this tutorial   http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1307039&postcount=6
[07:29] <Tamale> Shadowpillar_: Everything was working fine before I got the 686 kernel too
[07:29] <b_52Centos> there is a point that  didn't get!
[07:29] <Shadowpillar_> I know the nvidia 5 series were kinda shitty though
[07:29] <CapJackSparrow> no one is listening to me
[07:29] <seth> sharkie, look in Synaptic for more programs. Add/Remove only holds common programs
[07:29] <sharms> CapJackSparrow: I will not comment on this further on this channel, but if you want to know if people are using ubuntu in those regions, yes they are.  Survey via IRC only includes those on the IRC channel at a specific time which is not a very intelligent method of survey.  Regardless, belongs in offtopic.
[07:29] <Shadowpillar_> Tamale: is the 386 kernel still installed?
[07:29] <Tamale> Shadowpillar_: Yes, but it's sluggish now too.
[07:30] <Shadowpillar_> odd
[07:30] <Luci3n> hi CapJackSparrow
[07:30] <sharkie> seth, so does Synaptic holds all programs?
[07:30] <Tamale> Shadowpillar_: And the nvidia-settings program doesn't work in it either
[07:30] <Shadowpillar_> Tamale: I'm at a loss, mostly because I need some more rest, but check out the ubuntu forums
[07:30] <Tamale> Surely someone here can help?

[07:34] <Shadow_wolf> hmmmm well.....it seems i am talking to myself  and seem to be on a general ignore, as usual.  Time to find another distro that works.  At least i made a valid effort to put in 4 hours on my own to try everything I could think of before asking for help.  Since I am being ignored, this would have to be that either nobody knows enough to fix it or they just don't want to be bothered.

[07:44] <erUSUL> Shadow_wolf: are you sure that it is /dev/hda11 ?? do you have so many partitions?
[07:44] <Jack_Sparrow> Realcoolguy: ndiswrapper
[07:44] <ubotu> liblame0: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-1 (dapper), package size 147 kB, installed size 376 kB
[07:44] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, jsut dhcp and mac
[07:44] <Shadow_wolf> it's a mac thing
[07:44] <Shadow_wolf> i don't know why either
[07:44] <jrib> m4rk: enable the multiverse repository and use synaptic or apt-get
[07:44] <jrib> !multiverse > m4rk
[07:44] <Shadow_wolf> mac just assigns all these weird paritions for things like patches and such
[07:44] <SurfnKid> guys how can i prevent certain websites from loading on my pc?
[07:44] <SurfnKid> like ad site
[07:44] <SurfnKid> s
[07:44] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid,  yes ust dhcp and mac. what's that about icmp? I don't understand.
[07:45] <SurfnKid> you said you pinged right? and couuldnt
[07:45] <SurfnKid> well it goes thru the icmp protocol, and the bridge may not allow icmp to pass
[07:45] <Shadow_wolf> i just killed a yellow dog install that was on hda11 and all i had to do was to point bootx to hda11 and voila
[07:46] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, yes when i ping from either side all the packets are lost, but when i do arp -an the mac address that i pinged will show up
[07:46] <gumby> ello, can anyone help me?
[07:46] <jrib> !helpme
[07:46] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:46] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, thats the point of a bridge, to allow only mac addresses that are requested
[07:46] <paladine> anyone know wy I can't see my second drive?
[07:46] <SurfnKid> nothing else
[07:46] <gumby> awww, i hate when people do that, i'm such a hypocrite now XD
[07:46] <jrib> paladine: does it show up in system > administration > disks?
[07:46] <SurfnKid> this prevents broadcast, ping, or other request type-storms
[07:47] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, so icmp is simply the protocol ping uses then? I also tried http (one of the boxes runs apache) and that didn't work either
[07:47] <Aguja> nas tardes
[07:47] <paladine> jrib, nope
[07:47] <SurfnKid> yeah
[07:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !es
[07:47] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[07:47] <paladine> it is totaly unpartitioned
[07:47] <erUSUL> Shadow_wolf: the panic msg is becouse of the root parameter of the kernel it can't find the root filesystem so he can find all the programs for the init of the machine. i do not know why passing the root option explicity in bootx desn't work though :(
[07:47] <gumby> uhh, i can't get ubuntu to install, i put the live cd in, reboot and it goes to the main screen where it asks if you want to boot/install live cd, or whatever, well i go to install, and it sticks at the logo with the bar at the bottom
[07:47] <gumby> stays like that for well over an hour
[07:47] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, its like a containment to each network
[07:47] <Jack_Sparrow> gumby: Did you let the cd test for errors?
[07:47] <grimx> using firefox and when i try to search it laggs but when i image search it runs fine
[07:48] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, i'm not with you...
[07:48] <gumby> i think i clicked the option to test for errors on cd, and it froze as well
[07:48] <paladine> jrib, the drive has no partitions on it
[07:48] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, you have 2 networks and 1 bridge
[07:48] <gumby> i verified teh checksums and burned 2 copies, both did same thing
[07:48] <Jack_Sparrow> gumby: Just because it boots to a gui does not mean every file on the cd checks out ok
[07:48] <paladine> needs partitoining and formatting
[07:48] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, that's right
[07:48] <Shadow_wolf> i don't know either...i had a bit of the same issue with debian etch...and since this is basically debian sid..........on that install i had quik bootloader...until the open firmware corrupted on me and it would no longer boot
[07:48] <Jack_Sparrow> gumby: Burn slower
[07:48] <jrib> paladine: have you tried using gparted to do that?
[07:49] <paladine> jrib, that was gonnabe my next question, I thought ubuntu came with gpartedinstalled by default
[07:49] <gumby> ughhh, like i have time/patience to burn any slower! ;P
[07:49] <m4rk> cool thanks for your help jrib
[07:49] <Jack_Sparrow> People, it has been fun. but I need to call it a day.... Play nice...
[07:49] <jrib> paladine: no, I don't think it does.  Just use synaptic to install it
[07:49] <gumby> hope thats it, thanks
[07:49] <SurfnKid> if you have too much data traffic on one side, what the bridge does is isolate each network, and if and only if a MAC is requested will the bridge look at its tables and allw it to pass thru
[07:49] <paladine> doing so now
[07:49] <Jack_Sparrow> gumby: You dont have the time to do it right but you have the time to do it over and over... hummm
[07:49] <gumby> [/sarcasm]  ;P
[07:49] <SurfnKid> if that mac exists on the other network
[07:49] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[07:49] <Shadow_wolf> i had one heck of a time getting some files off that laptop that i spent weeks working on....i had to rip the laptop apart, rip the hard drive from its steaming entrails and plug it into a usb to ide connector
[07:50] <gumby> blegh, i hate the smell of cds fresh from teh spindle
[07:50] <appelza> is there a guide to get mysql working with php and apache?
[07:50] <jrib> !lamp > appelza
[07:50] <Shadow_wolf> hooked it to this box and dragged the files out before giving them CPR
[07:50] <Shadow_wolf> heh
[07:50] <Realcoolguy> ok, I have an intel 82547EI Gigabit Ethernet card (drivers for are called e1000 or something on the intel site)  how do I make it go if I don't have a compile environment on the intel machine?
[07:50] <Shadow_wolf> it was a nightmare
[07:50] <Shadow_wolf> hence, i will never trust quik bootloader again
[07:51] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, so would that fact that i am running edonkey on one side of the bridge be the kind of heavy traffic the bridge would screen out? and how do I get the bridge to behave ?
[07:51] <appelza> thanks
[07:51] <Realcoolguy> someone told me to install ndiswrapper, but I don't have a build environment... not sure what I'm supposed to do
[07:51] <lupine_85> apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils ?
[07:51] <function1> help: i just installed 6.06, uncommented all repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list, updated package lists in synaptic, but there are still some packages missing that are mentioned in an official ubuntu FAQ for 6.06 (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats) namely w32codecs, a few others. how can i get these pacages??
[07:51] <paladine> gparted is not seeing the disk either
[07:51] <gumby> 24x slow enough? or should i go like 2x
[07:52] <Realcoolguy> i'm trying to get my ethernet card to work... I have no build environment...
[07:52] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, tweak it, allow certain things to pass thru, certain protocols e.g edonkey iirc is 4662 and so forth
[07:52] <gumby> er 8x
[07:52] <paladine> which is odd because I was using the disk on my last ubuntu install just the other day
[07:52] <jrib> !w32codecs > function1
[07:52] <jrib> function1: w32codecs isn't in the default repositories, you need to download it and install the deb file
 anything under 12 normally does the trick
[07:52] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, when you say tweak it do you mean using iptables? i'm not up on this stuff
[07:52] <gumby> mmk
[07:52] <Shadow_wolf> what i need to do is to find a way that i can force this powerbook to run system 7.1 to use less diskspace than the greedy 9.1....not a very large drive in this laptop and to give up a quarter of the space for a mac paritition just to run a boot loader rather sucks
[07:52] <function1> ok jrib you just referenced the same page i was talking about
[07:53] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, in linux i actually dont know how to, on a hardware bridge they are fairly simple
[07:53] <jrib> function1: that page has a link for you to download the w32codecs deb
[07:53] <function1> oh ok
[07:53] <Paddy_EIRE> is there a gnome documentation/helpcenter that contains all the manuals much like the kde one
[07:54] <function1> well, there's one other one missing that is not specifically addressed (like w32codecs): gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
[07:54] <jrib> !info gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
[07:54] <ubotu> gstreamer0.10-pitfdll: GStreamer plugin for using MS Windows binary codecs. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 0.9.1.1+cvs20060312-0ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 79 kB, installed size 260 kB (Only available for i386)
[07:54] <Shadow_wolf> i guess this shall remain a mystery....this is going to be a huge pain in my @ss, but methinks the only choice left for this old world beast linux-wise will have to be gentoo
[07:54] <raxor> !info gtk-webcore
[07:54] <ubotu> Package gtk-webcore does not exist in any distro I know
[07:54] <jrib> function1: have you enabled dapper multiverse?
[07:54] <function1> yup
[07:54] <finalbeta> Paddy_EIRE, in nautiles, press F1?
[07:54] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, i'm confused about this because the documentation for bridging says that the bridge is supposed to behave as if it's not there by default, although you can set up filtering if you want to.
[07:54] <Luke> does anyone know how to install Unreal Tournament on Ubuntu? Or a good place to get the files needed? I have the CD
[07:55] <Teddy> i need help, I deleted whole directory with my projects accidentally, any way to recover it? i REALLY NEED IT, thanks
nice one :)
[07:55] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, yeah sureyou ahve to set up filtering
[07:55] <jrib> function1: can you make sure you have dapper multiverse, not just dapper-backports multiverse?  It isn't in the default sources.list, you need to manually add it
[07:55] <Realcoolguy> ok, I have an intel 82547EI Gigabit Ethernet card (there are linux drivers for it, but you have to compile your own)  how do I make it go if I don't have a compile environment on the intel machine?  What's the best way to get my internet working?
[07:55] <Shadow_wolf> or there is option number two.....
[07:55] <function1> ok, i'll double check and then get back to you.
[07:55] <function1> thanks for help :)
[07:56] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, you mean iptables? I guess i have some manuals to read then :-)
[07:56] <jrib> function1: np

[07:56] <paladine> jrib, can you think of any other way of getting this second drive seen other than using windows partition manager?
[07:57] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, yeah probably, i dont know how bridging works in linux, i myself am trying to block certain www sites from passing thru so i have to read a lot
[07:57] <SurfnKid> just dont know which manuals
[07:58] <Shadow_wolf> i guess nobody has any more info that i could come up with....some things were never meant to be, i guess
[07:58] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, i'll give it a go. thanks! btw, know any good simple howtos on filtering?
[07:58] <jrib> paladine: did gparted not work?
[07:58] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, there's Firestarter
[07:58] <paladine> looks like Imight have to shutdown, unplug the currently active drive, swap the sata ports and use livecd to put a partition on the second drive
[07:58] <SurfnKid> ireneshusband, at least you dont have to mess with iptables
[07:58] <paladine> nope gparted is not seeing the drive
[07:58] <SurfnKid> it modifies tables for you
[07:59] <jrib> paladine: weird, I don't enough about it to really help you troubleshoot that
[07:59] <Teddy> sorry i had problem with my connection
[07:59] <Teddy> anyone helped me?
[07:59] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, thanx!
[07:59] <SurfnKid> hope you can get it going
[08:00] <paladine> I know the drive is good because I was using it just 3 days ago before I reinstalled windows, I dropped all the partitions when I reinstalled windows and never got round to partitioning it again before I ditched windows again and came back to ubuntu
[08:00] <ireneshusband> SurfnKid, good luck with your setup too.
[08:00] <paladine> and it is a brand new drive
[08:01] <function1> jrib: there it is :D
[08:01] <paladine> bbiab I will have to mess around with my hardware setup to get this working
[08:01] <function1> i didnt realize it wasnt in sources.list already.. i thought uncommenting all sources in there would give me all
[08:02] <twb> What is the sources.list entry that provides the web browser Opera?
[08:06] <Teddy> ANYONE like to help me???
[08:06] <Hybernate> thx to all for helping me now im a happy lad again
[08:06] <SurfnKid> any other app that works similar to FireStarter but also allows specific site blocking?
[08:06] <THX-1138> !sourceomatic
[08:06] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[08:06] <Teddy> I deleted whole directory with my project, filesystem reiserfs, any way to recover it???
[08:06] <Meez> hoi, is there anyway to use a different xorg.conf (ie, xorg-gaming.conf) with different xservers started by xinit?
[08:07] <Xenguy> Hi - I am running Breezy on an old laptop, and 'Update Manager' is offering to upgrade to Dapper for me.  My concern is that I only have <400Mb of disk space left :-(  Is upgrading to Dapper a bad idea in this case?
[08:07] <total_meltdown> Teddy: err... Probably not...
[08:07] <twb> Teddy: no, short of taking it to a data recovery place and having them examine the hard disk bit by bit.  It's very expensive.
[08:07] <THX-1138> Surfinkid - maybe squidproxy or something that can give a gui to your hosts list?
[08:07] <twb> Teddy: consider this a lesson in keeping backups.
[08:07] <Teddy> it was accidentally
[08:07] <SurfnKid> THX-1138, right, just want to block all the AD sites from loading
[08:07] <deybyd> ke
[08:07] <total_meltdown> Teddy: Computers have no mercy
[08:08] <Teddy> i didn't realize how this happened
[08:08] <gpgarrett|workin> Can someone help me with my wireless card? It's a broadcom 43xx and I tried Linuxant Driver Loader, ndiswrapper, and much more, but still couldnt get it working... Any suggestions? ndiswrapper says the driver was loaded and hardware installed but wlan0 doesnt show up in networking config.
[08:08] <twb> Teddy: if you `deleted' it with e.g. nautilus, look in ~/.Trash.
[08:08] <THX-1138> Xenguy - In your place i would upgrade from a new cd
[08:08] <Teddy> Shift+Delete
[08:08] <Lilandra> hi
[08:08] <twb> Teddy: it's gone, then.
[08:08] <Xenguy> THX-1138: any particular reason then?
[08:08] <total_meltdown> Teddy: I accidentally deletd my projects directory once. The computer didn't forgive me. I never got it back... :(
[08:08] <twb> Teddy: as I said, a data recovery place may be able to get some of it back.
[08:08] <Lilandra> gpgarrett|working: is broadcom 43xx like the apple airport express?
[08:08] <total_meltdown> Teddy: I hope it wasn't a big project
[08:09] <xopher> Xenguy, that way you dont need to download the packages to your hdd - takes up less space
[08:09] <total_meltdown> Teddy: If you want any hope though, unplug the drive right now, and don't use it again until you get a professional (if you want to go that far)
[08:09] <THX-1138> Xenguy - disk space and simplicity. - It should be possible to upgrade seamlessly but, it hasn't worked that way for me. YMMV
[08:09] <total_meltdown> the more you use it, the less likely or more expensive it will be to get it back
[08:09] <gpgarrettboast> Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN is what windows gives me as the name. it's in a Compaq Presario V3000
[08:09] <twb> Is there a knowledge base bot in here, like the `dpkg' bot in #debian?
[08:09] <Teddy> ok
[08:09] <Teddy> thanks
[08:09] <elias_> What are you guys thinking about proprietary software?
[08:09] <Lilandra> oh ok
[08:09] <twb> elias_: I am thinking it sucks.
[08:09] <THX-1138> !info apt
[08:10] <ubotu> apt: Advanced front-end for dpkg. In component main, is important. Version 0.6.43.3ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 1255 kB, installed size 3904 kB
[08:10] <twb> !info opera
[08:10] <ubotu> opera: The Opera Web Browser. In component non-free, is optional. Version 9.00-20060616.7 (dapper-commercial), package size 5415 kB, installed size 12376 kB (Only available for i386)
[08:10] <Xenguy> xopher THX-1138 My concern was more that Dapper might end up needing way more disk space than Breezy, so I might run out of space even if I did the upgrade from CD for example
[08:10] <gpgarrettboast> I was up until 5AM trying to get it to work >.< but no luck
[08:10] <elias_> Do you guys think OpenSourceSoftware is the answer to everything?
[08:10] <twb> Ubuntu has a `non-free' dist component?  I thought it was main, restricted, universe, multiverse.
[08:10] <Lilandra> hi, does ubuntu use /etc/network/interfaces just like how debian does? and if not what should i do to get my wireless card automatically launch?
[08:10] <Xenguy> elias_: that's a very general statement :-)
[08:10] <twb> Lilandra: I *believe* it does.
[08:11] <xopher> Xenguy, well you should free up more space somehow.. maybe burn some files on cds..
[08:11] <Lilandra> thanks twb
[08:11] <twb> Lilandra: man 5 interfaces
[08:11] <Lilandra> thanks again! :)
[08:11] <jaypim> can I use gnome on a LAMP Installation Setup ( Server Edition )
[08:11] <jaypim> ?
[08:11] <Xenguy> xopher: I wonder how long Breezy will be supported for?  I can probably find that on the wiki somewhere if no one here knows
[08:11] <jaypim> startx doesnt work
[08:11] <twb> jaypim: what is a `lamp installation setup'?
[08:12] <gpgarrettboast> Would it be better to just go get a USB wifi adapter for my laptop thats compatible with Ubuntu instead of trying to get this broadcom to work?
[08:12] <THX-1138> Xenguy - The way i understand it is (might be very wrong) but the CD is used as an repository and has a similar structure as a web repo./ - maybe burn a cd and try adding it to your sources list???
[08:12] <xopher> Xenguy, not sure, I think dapper was the first LTS release?
[08:12] <jaypim> twb : 2nd option from 6.06 Server edition
[08:12] <twb> jaypim: apt-get install gnome, invoke-rc.d gdm start
[08:12] <Xenguy> xopher: AFAIK, yes
[08:12] <Skyrail> Is there anyway I can run games under linux by either not downloading any extra software or being able to download it to disc and installing it off there?
[08:12] <jaypim> twb: so X doesnt come default with the LAMP Installation ?
[08:13] <twb> jaypim: X is not used in any of the server installations, afaik.
[08:13] <Xenguy> THX-1138: OK thanks for the feedback.  My gut feeling is that I should stick with Breezy for now unless there is some compelling reason to upgrade at some point
[08:13] <Vegeta^> Is it possible to enable/disable the wireless netcard by assigning the short-key "Fn+F2" to do that (on a laptop)?
[08:13] <jaypim> twb: ah the server edition doesn't have X ?
[08:13] <twb> jaypim: it does not install it by default.
[08:13] <SurfnKid> Vegeta^, what kind of laptop do you have
[08:13] <jaypim> twb: thanks
[08:14] <twb> jaypim: the only difference between `server' and `desktop' versions is what packages are installed by default.
[08:14] <function1> problem: i get "totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin: Depends: totem-gstreamer (= 1.4.1-0ubuntu4) but 1.4.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed" when i try to install totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin
[08:14] <gpgarrettboast> Would it be better to just go get a USB wifi adapter for my laptop thats compatible with Ubuntu instead of trying to get this broadcom adapter to work?
[08:14] <THX-1138> Xenguy - yes, - likely the the easiest. What can you get from the new release that you don't have already.
[08:14] <jaypim> twb: ah... thanks
[08:14] <Vegeta^> SurfnKid: A Dell Latitude D400
[08:14] <gumby> hmmm, so burning at 8x didn't solve the boot problem
[08:14] <twb> gpgarrettboast: support for the broadcom wireless chipsets is very recent (less than six months old).
[08:14] <SurfnKid> Vegeta^, Its already embedded in bios i think, all Dell laptops have that
[08:14] <cyberfr0g> sup?
[08:14] <abelle> Hello
[08:14] <Xenguy> THX-1138: yeah, really I have everything I need for text-editing right now ;-)
[08:15] <paladine> thats totally odd jrib
[08:15] <paladine> I had to unplug the drive on sata1
[08:15] <Vegeta^> hmm.. I think it worked in Ubuntu GNOME, but not in KDE...
[08:15] <paladine> plug the second drive into sata1
[08:15] <gpgarrettboast> It's not showing wlanX in any of the network configs. only loopback, and eth0
[08:15] <elias_> Does anybody agree if I say, OSS is great for software of great public interest, software with a wide userbase like an OS (Linux) or a browser (Firefox) but the close source model works better for smaller more specialized software.
[08:15] <THX-1138> Where can i find the variables used for gnome-panel?
[08:15] <gpgarrettboast> I tried ndiswrapper...
[08:15] <paladine> load up livecd and use gparted
[08:15] <Xenguy> THX-1138: I can surf the web, and I can VNC into faster boxen, so there's no need to mess with the setup me thinks
[08:15] <abelle> fun
[08:15] <cyberfr0g> ?
[08:15] <THX-1138>  Where can i edit gnome-panel properties not available in "gconf-editor"?
[08:15] <SurfnKid> Vegeta^, oh that i dont know, but if it worked its just a matter of finding kde to reccognize that command
[08:16] <paladine> seems gparted will not see a drive if it has not partitions unless it is on the first port
[08:16] <Vegeta^> ok
[08:16] <axisys> how do I split a 1600 page pdf file in 8 ?
[08:16] <jaypim> twb: it says it could not find package gnome
[08:16] <twb> jaypim: er, one moment.
[08:16] <Realcoolguy> I see my ethernet card in my network settings, and it's enabled (I tried enabling and disabling) but can anyone tell me how I can figure out what it's doing?  I just want to find the problem
[08:16] <Realcoolguy> (it's not doing anything right now)
[08:16] <gpgarrettboast> Realcoolguy is your network DCHP enabled?
[08:17] <jaypim> twb: I have a fresh installation of 6.06 server edition (LAMP Installation)
[08:17] <gpgarrettboast> and did you get an IP address
[08:17] <Realcoolguy> yes, I have a DHCP server enabled on my router
[08:17] <appelza> how do I enable vim syntax highlighting?
[08:17] <Realcoolguy> I only have local host
[08:17] <twb> jaypim: on Ubuntu, you could install `ubuntu-desktop'.  That pulls in all the desktop packages.
[08:17] <twb> appelza: http://twb.ath.cx/~twb/profile/.vimrc
[08:17] <axee> ubuntu has been stuck on install process "73%" for 30 minutes, any idea what could cause it to stop????
[08:17] <jaypim> twb: how do I do that ?
[08:17] <gpgarrettboast> Realcoolguy: are the link lights lit on your ethernet card?
[08:17] <appelza> ktnx
[08:17] <twb> axee: loss of network?
[08:18] <twb> jaypim: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:18] <axee> strange, its still connected
[08:18] <twb> jaypim: ubuntu-desktop is just another package.
[08:18] <twb> axee: loss of TCP connection.

[08:19] <axee> twb, its doing nothing. no hdd or RAM lights are on
[08:19] <gpgarrettboast> Realcoolguy: if its showing that the cable is connected, try doing a DCHP release/renew on your ethernet adapter

[08:20] <Realcoolguy> gpgarrettboast ... not sure how to do that actually
[08:20] <twb> jaypim: if you know specifically what packages you want, you could specify them individually instead of using a catch-all package like gnome-user-environment.
[08:20] <aceracer24> twb: heh well that won't help me with InitNG will it?

[08:26] <||arifaX> jaypim: isn't it just "ubuntu-desktop" (gnome) and "kubuntu-desktop" (kde)

[08:26] <||arifaX> I see
[08:26] <Yggdrasil> anyone ?
[08:26] <jaypim> where is sources.list located ?

[08:28] <henning_> nice place, gitt!

[08:28] <twb> jaypim: you want a line along the lines of `deb http://... dapper ... universe'
[08:29] <twb> axee: do you have sshd installed and running?
[08:29] <MmmSkyscraper> .clear
[08:29] <jaypim> twb: yup.. it says here that I have to uncomment these two lines...
[08:29] <axee> twb, i have no idea, i cannot check (this is a new install of ubuntu, ive just switched from fedora)
[08:29] <twb> axee: then you don't have sshd.
[08:29] <jaypim> twb: then gnome-desktop ?
[08:29] <twb> axee: try Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.
[08:29] <twb> jaypim: you need to run apt-get update first.
[08:30] <klausos> hi!
[08:30] <jaypim> twb: ok
[08:30] <twb> klausos: a likely story.
[08:30] <axee> twb, its still not doing anything. I have no control over my mouse either
[08:30] <twb> axee: sounds like your local terminal, possibly even the whole system, is borked.  Power cycle the machine.
[08:30] <axee> (the pointer is just stuck :\)
[08:30] <gpgarrettboast> axee, i think ur 100% crashed
[08:30] <axee> yeah

[08:31] <gpgarrettboast> How did you partition your disk?
[08:31] <twb> axee: just reboot, you can probably recover from there.
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> axee: does this happen to be a   ASUS K8N4-E

[08:36] <twb> Hmm?
[08:36] <twb> OK.
[08:36] <Jack_Sparrow> axee: One person solved the mouse problem by using both   acpi=off acpi = no  to load the system
[08:36] <Hybernate> what do i type in consol to see how much hd space i got left <--- noob:)
[08:36] <axisys> !psselect
[08:36] <SurfnKid> MCD your xorg file might be fubar, do a cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[08:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about psselect - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:37] <vincenz> Anyone familiar with lynx or links?
[08:37] <SurfnKid> do you get to CLI when you boot to ubuntu?
[08:37] <MCD> CLI = ?
[08:37] <SurfnKid> !cli
[08:37] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[08:37] <jaypim> twb: why are there lots of GET from http://ph.archive.ububtu...... ?
[08:37] <twb> SurfnKid: yes, w3m is nicer.
[08:37] <MCD> Yes sometimes it comes up Subhuman
[08:37] <twb> jaypim: hmm?
[08:37] <MCD> SurfnKid*
[08:37] <SurfnKid> twb?
[08:38] <gpgarrettboast> vincenz lynx is the smallest chassis in Outpost 2. it's also a text based web browser
[08:38] <vincenz> yes
[08:38] <jaypim> twb: does it verifies newer version of gnome files ?
[08:38] <twb> SurfnKid: Sorry, bad completion.
[08:38] <SurfnKid> twb,  hehe
[08:38] <Jack_Sparrow> MCD: cli = command prompt for XP
[08:38] <vincenz> and I'm having troubles with it, I ssh'd home and tried to change router settins
[08:38] <vincenz> sadly, it does show the input fields, but not the SAVE Changes button as a link!
[08:38] <topynate> 69
[08:38] <twb> vincenz: use w3m instead.
[08:38] <vincenz> twb: how do I use auth?
[08:38] <SurfnKid> MCD it is like CMD on XP but this is on the linux side
[08:38] <twb> vincenz: probably the site you are browsing is fucked.
[08:38] <Hybernate> is there some command to show me the amount of hd space i got left
[08:38] <MCD> yeah i know what you mean SurfnKid
[08:38] <twb> vincenz: kindly kill all `web developers'.
[08:38] <MCD> yes it does come up
[08:38] <vincenz> twb: it's a standard browser
[08:38] <Jack_Sparrow> MCD: If so you can try                dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:38] <vincenz> erm
[08:39] <vincenz> twb: it's a router
[08:39] <jaypim> Hybernate: df
[08:39] <vincenz> twb: !
[08:39] <gpgarrettboast> vincenz does your router have a telnet service?
[08:39] <vincenz> gpgarrettboast: doubt tit
[08:39] <twb> vincenz: most routers have telnet or ssh.
[08:39] <vincenz> nope
[08:39] <SurfnKid> ok good, then run this command when you get to that prompt, and write down what it outputs  " cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[08:39] <MCD> Jack_Sparrow, type it in terminal just like that? all one command "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[08:39] <vincenz> it's a linksys wrt..G
[08:39] <SomeoneElse> when i installed ubuntu i set the time as the local time but now i want to change it to GMT and have ubunut know it's set to GMT is there a way to do that or am i screwed?
[08:39] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[08:39] <twb> vincenz: get openwrt!

[08:40] <SurfnKid> then we might have to do Jack_Sparrow 's command
[08:40] <vincenz> twb: can we please stick to the issue at hand instead of throwing around religions statements
[08:40] <MCD> okay ill try yours
[08:40] <twb> Luke: aptitude search ~nopengl

[08:40] <SurfnKid> without the quotes of course
[08:40] <MCD> heh
[08:40] <MCD> but all one line?
[08:40] <Jack_Sparrow> MCD: HIs tells you what driver is there, mine allows you to reset what driver it is using
[08:40] <MCD> cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver
[08:40] <vincenz> why isn't the commit button a lilnk?  and just a piece of text saying [Button] 
[08:40] <SurfnKid> yes
[08:40] <SurfnKid> you got it
[08:41] <twb> Luke: ~nPATTERN matches packages with PATTERN in name.

[08:54] <twb> jaypim: 200MB compressed.
[08:54] <jaypim> twb: now I understand.. I should have gotten the desktop edition :(

[08:54] <jaypim> twb: server edition is for the pro :)
[08:54] <twb> jaypim: no, Debian is :P

[08:55] <THX-1138> Jaypim - sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" ???
[08:55] <twb> THX-1138:  he doesn't want to download it, I think.
[08:56] <jaypim> twb: should I get the desktop edition or should I just apt-get ?
[08:56] <twb> If you have a slow network connection, the best approach is to find a local redistibutor and BUY a copy of the latest DVD version for about $15.
[08:56] <Milo-> how can i check which drivers/modules is my ubuntu live cd using for my soundcard?
[08:56] <twb> I think Canonical also post you a copy on CD if you ask.
[08:56] <outofjungle_m> i want to install atftp on a server thru apt-get. but i'm getting package not found. should i download and compile the package?
[08:57] <Fucxt> what is the canadian ubuntu channel name?
[08:57] <twb> Milo-: lsmod
[08:57] <lophyte> #ubuntu-ca
[08:57] <mwe> Milo-: lsmod|grep snd probably
[08:57] <lophyte> you were just there, Fucxt :P
[08:57] <Milo-> ah thanks
[08:57] <jaypim> twb: I'm on broadband ... though my roommate is complaining because I'm eating all the bandwidth while downloading gnome :(
[08:57] <twb> lophyte: heh, is that because canadians don't speak proper English?
[08:57] <lophyte> ...
[08:57] <twb> jaypim: you can probably throttle it.  man apt.conf
[08:57] <Luke> Jack_Sparrow: I think I was using the non GOTY edititon installer and thats where the problems where. Thanks again for that site. Are you running UT on linux?
[08:58] <jaypim> twb: throttle ?
[08:58] <THX-1138> outofjungle - What is the package name? - are "universe comunitty supported" repositories used in synaptic your sources list?
[08:58] <twb> jaypim: tell it not to use all the bandwidth.
[08:58] <lophyte> I'm just going to ignore that remark, because its rather presumptuous and has nothing to do with the topic at hand
[08:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Luke: Glad to help... NOt much into games... sorry
[08:58] <jaypim> twb: like a bandwidth shaper ?
[08:58] <Ma1> I love amarok and hate Rhythmbox but I use GNOME.. Do you guys know what's the better option : getting amaroK or maybe you know a better soft?
[08:58] <twb> lophyte: hey, I'm just joking around.
[08:58] <jaypim> twb: how do i do that ?
[08:58] <Jack_Sparrow> !best
[08:58] <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.
[08:59] <twb> jaypim: shaping is different again.  A shaped connection assigns different priorities to different types of traffic.
[08:59] <lophyte> twb: well then, my apologies.. I misinterpreted it :P
[08:59] <jrib> Ma1: I like moc myself, but there is nothing wrong with using amarok in gnome
[08:59] <grimx> how do i use Allegro in MinGW Studio
[08:59] <twb> jaypim: a throttle simply says "don't use more than X kB/s.
[08:59] <twb> grimx: Franz' Allegro Common Lisp?
[08:59] <Ma1> ok thank you jrib
[08:59] <THX-1138> Luke - I love UT'99 - I still can't figure out how to release the mouse cursor from the invisible boundary box.

[09:00] <twb> jaypim: I don't know, man apt.conf, JFGI.
[09:00] <grimx> Allegro Common Lisp???
[09:00] <jaypim> twb: :)
[09:00] <jaypim> twb: what does JFGI mean ?
[09:00] <twb> Just Fucking Google It.
[09:00] <jaypim> twb: lol

[09:00] <THX-1138> it is as if the xserver sees the desktop as one resolution and the game entirely another
[09:00] <jaypim> hehe
[09:01] <twb> I like how ubotu thinks they are words.
[09:01] <EddieX> Why cant i load my homemade kernelmodules in ubuntu? They work just fine in other distros (compiled against kernel in each one)
[09:01] <ompaul> twb, actually if you do not know much better to say nothing, we encourage those who help to give a full URL
[09:01] <outofjungle_m> okay, atftp is listed in packages.ubuntu.com. but i'm unable to install the package as it says package not found. what should i do?

[09:07] <SpEeDFrEaK> hi
[09:07] <SpEeDFrEaK> need alittle help
[09:08] <Tonio_> I need to flash my laptop but acer only provides winflash....
[09:08] <twb> Paddy_EIRE: to find programs that shouldn't be there, install the `cruft' package.
[09:08] <Tonio_> is there a workaround to flash this way ?
[09:08] <Tonio_> I think about bartpe cd or wine..... but flashing via wine....
[09:08] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone recommend a cpanel ples 8 doesnt support version 6?
[09:08] <mwe> Tonio_: I don't know about acer but for ibm there is a workaround but it is not supported by leveno
 yeah im gonna try that, but not all my apps where installed via "apt-get" or "aptitude" some where installed using things like wine and dpkg and some where just folders that needed to be extracted is it gonna pick all these up???
[09:09] <PingunZ> Paddy_EIRE: Synaptic only shows the installed .deb's.
 "dpkg -l" and what is "cruft"
[09:09] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone recommend a cpanel plesk 8 doesnt support version 6? And i just installed on 3 servers
[09:09] <optimusprime> what does the "0" mean in "hd0,1"?
[09:09] <PingunZ> Paddy_EIRE: There is a lot in /usr/bin too
[09:09] <twb> Paddy_EIRE: apt-get install cruft; man cruft
[09:09] <covOPprometheus> Jack_Sparrow,  thanks
[09:09] <optimusprime> is that the same as hda1?
[09:09] <ootput> optimusprime: primary channel
[09:09] <Tonio_> mwe, will search thanks
[09:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: To identify installed packages and create a list to reinstall Use Terminal type dpkg --get-selections > myprog.txt
[09:10] <ootput> optimusprime: yes
[09:10] <Jack_Sparrow> optimusprime: what did I do this time?
[09:10] <twb> johnsandman: is that the same as debconf-get-selections?
[09:10] <georgy> optmusprime : first hardrive, then first partition
gonna try both methods, although what would be a good way of allthese then being put into a list that i can just grab and look at
[09:10] <optimusprime> ahh....ok..

[09:11] <Vegeta^> What package do I install, so that I get all the LaTeX packages? (the sty-files).
[09:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: That command makes a list called myprog.txt

[09:11] <twb> covOPprometheus: it should Just Work.
[09:11] <SpEeDFrEaK> so no one has recommnedation?
[09:11] <mwe> Vegeta^: tetex-bin
[09:11] <twb> SpEeDFrEaK: I don't understand your original question.
[09:11] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone recommend a cpanel plesk 8 doesnt support version 6? And i just installed on 3 servers
[09:11] <mwe> Vegeta^: and tetex-extra maybe
[09:11] <rockbadger> when plugging in my sony ericsson k750i to a usb 2 port it doesn't seem to mount, or at least i can't find it... can anyone help?
[09:12] <twb> SpEeDFrEaK: what is a `cpanel plesk'?
solved the icon thing, it turns out to be a bug in dapper, gotta manually type the path when choosing an icon
[09:12] <Vegeta^> mwe: Ok thanks
[09:12] <covOPprometheus> twb, well, it should, but the cdrom only works some random times, I'm not quiet sure but it seems to work when I halt the machine with the cd inside and start it up afterwards
[09:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Paddy_EIRE: k
[09:12] <covOPprometheus> twb, then eject it and put it back in
[09:12] <SpEeDFrEaK> a control panel
[09:13] <mwe> rockbadger: my phone just mounts. I had to config it for data storage mode though
[09:13] <covOPprometheus> twb, it's just too wierd
[09:13] <twb> covOPprometheus: you can eject / insert the cd from software with `eject' and `eject -t'.
[09:13] <Juhaz> Andre4s, libgtk2.0-dev, but why not just install gftp?
[09:13] <covOPprometheus> twb, ejecting isn't the problem
[09:13] <SpEeDFrEaK> twb just a contol panel
[09:14] <voraistos> Guys. I gat big trouble with Aiglx. I installed it, it doesnt work and I NEED to play UT2003. Or at lest to be back on x. It seems my ATI drivers are not compatible with xorg 7.1.x. what should i do ?

[09:16] <voraistos> Jack_Sparrow: All i need is to be NOT in CLI mode :)

[09:17] <marcin_ant> could someone help me and tell how to prepare bootable instalation of dapper on pendrive?
[09:17] <Vegeta^> What is a better pdf viewer than KPDF?
[09:17] <silverfox> i like the acrobat reader
[09:17] <Crazed> Jack_Sparrow that is just to dis / enable the device again ?
[09:17] <Crazed> I used the gnome app for that
[09:17] <Crazed> but no use
[09:17] <Jack_Sparrow> covOPprometheus: Post your fstab so we cal look at it..
[09:17] <SpEeDFrEaK> or is ispconfig the only app working with version 6
[09:17] <The_Lunatic> does anyone here has problems with emerging windows on Gnome - XGL - Compiz
[09:17] <eyequeue> marcin_ant, i don't own one presently, but how big a pen drive would be required for that do you think?

[09:18] <voraistos> hm. OK lets say i have xorg 7.1 . I want 7.0 back what do i do now ?
[09:18] <The_Lunatic> ok thanks and sorry
[09:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Crazed: You running the 686 kernel...  Have you run any scripts like Automatix or EasyUbuntu?
[09:19] <eyequeue> marcin_ant, i was thinking more of minimum requirements, in case i can talk someone into buying me a cheapish one :)
[09:19] <Crazed> no never used automatix or easyubuntu
[09:19] <Crazed> and I am running k7 kernel ..
[09:19] <kitche> voraistos: just so you know xorg 7.1 is almost the same as xorg 7.0 but with bugfixes for 7.0
[09:19] <Crazed> used to be all working
[09:19] <Jack_Sparrow> covOPprometheus: Please use the Pastebin to post that
[09:19] <covOPprometheus> Jack_Sparrow, hmmm, bash: fstab: command not found
[09:19] <marcin_ant> eyequeue: I have seen two howtos on wiki pages - minimal requirement is that you need to put contents of *.iso on this pendrive
[09:19] <Crazed> just after a reboot it got screwed ..
[09:19] <william__> hey guys, my friend was trying to install Ubuntu but some how re-partitioned his media driver and now I need to do a Data Recovery.. I've done them before for NTFS and FAT32 drivers but what software will I need to read the linux swap partition which is what he accidently made it ???
[09:19] <mercur>  I have an ubuntu server + fluxbox install.my problem is: my window managers (both thunar and xfe) can't display characters like "" or "" which package must i install to get this?
[09:19] <syn-za> Anyone here got any experience with pam_mysql?
[09:19] <marcin_ant> eyequeue: so 512 too small - 1GB enough
[09:19] <Crazed> have to say that I first did a reboot after updates .. was still working
[09:19] <voraistos> kitche: yeah but 7.0 has a big plus: my graphic card works with it !
[09:19] <Jack_Sparrow> covOPprometheus: gedit  /etc/fstab   (sudo cp /etc/fstab ~/fstab.backup to make a backup)
[09:20] <kitche> voraistos: what's your card?
[09:20] <Crazed> then I again I did a reboot cause I wanted to change something in windows and then booted back to ubuntu
[09:20] <eyequeue> marcin_ant, yeah, i huess one might be able to make a custom iso, pruned down, but that seems like a lot of work
[09:20] <voraistos> ATI 9600
[09:20] <Crazed> and it got screwed :P
[09:20] <Crazed> I could try ifdown / ifup first
[09:20] <Crazed> brb :)
[09:20] <kitche> voraistos: that should work with 7.1 as well
[09:21] <marcin_ant> eyequeue: theoretically not read -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick

[09:21] <marcin_ant> eyequeue: but this didn't work for me
[09:21] <voraistos> kitche: it doesnt, well it tells me fglrx needs 7.0, and no more
[09:21] <covOPprometheus> Jack_Sparrow, http://pastebin.ca/171987

[09:21] <eyequeue> marcin_ant, ugh

[09:22] <voraistos> kitche: wait a minute i tell u what the output is
[09:22] <kitche> voraistos: hmm fglrx: should work with xorg 7.1 since they came out with a 7.1 driver 3 months ago or so

[09:27] <nwbreneman> I tried to play a movie with MoviePlayer, but it crashed, and now it won't open again. I know if I restart it will work again, but I have a bittorrent downloading, and don't want to interrupt it. Is there anyway to reset MoviePlayer itself without restarting everything else?
[09:27] <ph8> mwe: do you know which mobo it has?
[09:27] <kitche> william_: most likely
[09:27] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone i need control platform for web hosting for version 6 server edition plz help

[09:29] <voraistos> kitche: but i tried to install Aiglx, which screwed everything
[09:29] <marcin_ant> mwe: I got asus P5B deluxe...
[09:29] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone i need control platform for web hosting for version 6 server edition plz help
[09:29] <SpEeDFrEaK> haha
[09:29] <mwe> marcin_ant: yeah. and it should be able to boot from USB?
[09:29] <voraistos> maybe i should use DRI then ?
[09:29] <SpEeDFrEaK> no one
[09:30] <kitche> voraistos: well aiglx doesn't work with ATI or nvidia binary drivers at the moment
[09:30] <ladydoor> Snake: easytag
[09:30] <ladydoor> Snake: maybe
[09:30] <BigToe> can you view a windows remotedesktop in ubuntu?

[09:30] <SpEeDFrEaK> recommend app someone
[09:30] <Snake> BigToe, Apps> Internet> Terminal Server Client
[09:31] <BigToe> thanks
[09:31] <mwe> marcin_ant: usually the MoBo has a few options for USB booting. floppy, hdd and possibly more. Sometimes you habe to try a few options even the ones that wouldn't make sense
[09:31] <voraistos> kitche: so how am i back to xorg 7.0 ?
[09:31] <marcin_ant> mwe: I followed this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[09:31] <kitche> voraistos: the open source drivers work form what I have read on fedora's official wiki
[09:31] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone i need control platform for web hosting for version 6 server edition plz help
[09:31] <aldur1973> speakfreak do you mean something like cpanel
[09:31] <SpEeDFrEaK> yes
[09:31] <voraistos> kitche: DRI are the open source drivers ?
[09:31] <marcin_ant> mwe: yes this mobo can use different emulation options for usb storage device
[09:31] <SpEeDFrEaK> cpanel and plesk dont support 6
[09:31] <kitche> voraistos: no DRI is for rendering
[09:31] <phaedrus44> any expeience with tv tuner cards?
[09:31] <marcin_ant> mwe: it can act as floppy, cd and hdd
[09:32] <covOPprometheus> what must I configure to get my cdrom working every time I put a CD in? I'm in serious trouble
[09:32] <mwe> marcin_ant: It seems to make sense. Personally I didn't follow a guide though.
[09:32] <SpEeDFrEaK> any suggestions
[09:32] <mwe> marcin_ant: I'd try all of the mobo options
[09:33] <mcd> Hello. I'm really new here, for some reason my sound isn't working now and I have it checked on the right device in volume control. Any idea?

[09:34] <marcin_ant> mwe: but only when I set this as hdd then I can choose this device from "boot device priority" menu
[09:34] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: what exactly is your problem? please say it out loud instead of just to me
[09:34] <marcin_ant> mwe: anyway what is your solution for this jmicron issue?
[09:34] <aldur1973> speadfreak sorry I only know of cpanel
[09:34] <Zer0ne> during the ubuntu install, the only res i can use is 640x480 - the bottom of the install window goes off the bottom of the screen, so i cant use the buttons.  any ideas?
[09:34] <mwe> marcin_ant: I don't know what that issue is about
[09:34] <kitche> voraistos: well apt-get doesn't have a downgrade feature

[09:35] <marcin_ant> mwe: ok anyway but you can tell me how to prepare usb disk with dapper right?
[09:35] <martii> eyequeue: both are old :(
[09:35] <ladydoor> martii: you could always compile from source
[09:35] <martii> ladydoor: then I would use gentoo :)
[09:36] <william__> kitche, can you switch partition types?
[09:36] <mcd> Hello. I'm really new here, for some reason my sound isn't working now and I have it checked on the right device in volume control. Any idea?
[09:36] <ladydoor> martii: you don't have to use gentoo to do that, haha. all you need is the package baseutils
[09:36] <rene32> Hi. I am using Nautilus o connect to a Linux server using SSH. Very often (after saving) the files I am editing are set to read-only. I have no idea why. Is that a bug in Nautilus?
[09:36] <kitche> william_: not sure but swap is stuch at swap if that's what you mean
[09:36] <covOPprometheus> when I insert a disk into my CDROM it isn't mounted everytime, to be more specific, it almost never mounts, as if the cd's would not be read
[09:36] <ladydoor> martii: no, not baseutils
[09:36] <martii> ladydoor: too many deps
[09:36] <voraistos> kitche: when i use "ati" driver, x seems to start, but resolution is not supported by my monitor. (Input not supported it exactly says)
[09:36] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone plz i need open source hosting control panel for Ubuntu version 6 server edition plesk 8 or cpanel do not support
[09:36] <Caplain> whats the difference between debian and ubuntu?
[09:36] <ladydoor> martii: oh, ok, i guess
[09:37] <martii> ladydoor: I'll use jahshaka instead
[09:37] <eyequeue> !debian
[09:37] <ubotu> Debian is "the rock upon which Ubuntu is founded". To see more details on the relationship, see: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship
[09:37] <mwe> marcin_ant: create one partition on the stick. copy all the files from the netinstall cd to the stick. copy the kernel and initrd to the root of the stick, rename isolinux.cfg to syslinux cfg. edit the file and run syslinux /dev/sda or whatever the drive is.
[09:37] <martii> ladydoor: they have debian repo
[09:37] <eyequeue> Caplain, ^^
[09:37] <SpEeDFrEaK> anyone plz i need open source hosting control panel for Ubuntu version 6 server edition plesk 8 or cpanel do not support
[09:37] <aldur1973> mcd try !sound
[09:37] <aldur1973> ie
[09:37] <aldur1973> !sound
[09:37] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[09:37] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: ok, do this:  less /etc/fstab. do you see a line for your cd drive, which would probably look something like this:
[09:38] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: /dev/hdc       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0       0
[09:38] <marcin_ant> mwe: partition -> fat 16?
[09:38] <Caplain> thx eyequeue
[09:38] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, already done, it seems to be ok http://pastebin.ca/171987
[09:38] <kitche> voraistos: well the open source drivers can only go up ot 1024x768 I believe
[09:38] <eyequeue> Caplain, sure thing
[09:38] <mwe> marcin_ant: or fat32
[09:38] <marcin_ant> mwe: and netinstall = alternative iso?
[09:38] <mwe> marcin_ant: whatever you want
[09:39] <mwe> marcin_ant: no but you could use that if you wanted if the files fit on the stick
[09:39] <voraistos> kitche: i am now trying to force an apt-downgrade

[09:41] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, as far as I know: NO, but we might make a test (I'm still a greenhorn in linux)
[09:41] <pgn> hello. how do i determine from cmd line which version of reiserfs i have?  i'm trying to repair a drive with reiserfsck, and it asks for which version.

[09:47] <pgn> my drive has been previously partitioned into multiple partitions.
[09:47] <pgn> from the cmd line, can i determine what the parition labels were?  e.g., i know i have /dev/hda3, but don't know if it was "/home" or "usr" etc...
[09:47] <SpEeDFrEaK> if im not speaking correct ask what im looking for
[09:47] <SpEeDFrEaK> at least u responded
[09:47] <SpEeDFrEaK> ty
[09:47] <eyequeue> pgn, try "df"
[09:48] <ladydoor> SpEeDFrEaK: i was just referring to "plz" which really doesn't even cut off much of the word, sorry. and np; you might also try posting on the forums or even google if nobody answers.
[09:48] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[09:48] <SpEeDFrEaK> thank you
[09:48] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: uhhh...i really don't know much about the mount command, unfortunately. i'm sorry
[09:48] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, k
[09:48] <Zer0ne> phaedrus44: the msg is not working :/
[09:48] <appelza> Guys
[09:48] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, hehe another failed try
[09:49] <appelza> How do I have a root user like normal distros?
[09:49] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: :-(...good luck
[09:49] <appelza> that doesnt need to sudo everything
[09:49] <Enthusiast78> Why does Ubuntu still use mbox instead of Maildir?
[09:49] <ladydoor> appelza: technically, in ubuntu you're supposed to use sudo. but you can also do sudo passwd root and then su to root
[09:49] <mcd> Hello. I am using a USB headset and I have the correct device selected in Volume Control but when i try to play a song in Beep it says "please make sure you have the correct sound device selected"
[09:49] <acidjames_> Enthusiast78, can't you easily change that ?
[09:49] <ladydoor> Enthusiast78: the format used depends on what mailreader you use and what you set it up to use.
[09:49] <raxor> silly question: if a program is telling me my config needs to be i686-pc-linux, what do I need to do?
[09:50] <acidjames_> raxor install linux-kernel-686
[09:50] <appelza> Ok, how do I scp stuff as a normal user into delicate parts of the system then?
[09:50] <raxor> apt-get?
[09:50] <appelza> because then I cant type sudo
[09:50] <acidjames_> yes, but you need a compatible processor raxor
[09:50] <raxor> hmm
[09:50] <raxor> How do I know acidjames_?
[09:50] <Clever_Nick> If I run the amd64 os, will I lose out on some drivers/modules?
[09:50] <Enthusiast78> acidjames_, Not easily, I think. I mean, why still use mbox instead of Mailbox...
[09:51] <hijinks> hey, none of my gnome applications are connecting to the internet
[09:51] <hijinks> ie synaptics, firefox etc
[09:51] <Enthusiast78> acidjames_, I have installed postfix and dovecot through aptitude, that was really easy.
[09:51] <acidjames_> raxor, pastebin me : cat /proc/cpuinfo
[09:51] <hijinks> even though i can ping websites etc
[09:51] <rene32> hijinks: ping?
[09:51] <pgn> eyequeue: i'm sort of in a catch22 at the moment.  booted from a rescue cd @ shell ... df just shows what's mounted there.
[09:51] <pgn> i'm trying to mount /dev/hda3, but it's got reiser problems ...
[09:51] <pgn> i'm simply tryin to get the drive labesl/mount points
[09:51] <Doodluv> Clever_Nick: amd64 nvidia was a problem dont know if it still is
[09:51] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, it's not about luck, I need a miracle, hehe I tend to two conlusion for now: 1st - it's a hardware problem and the cdrom doesn't work properly; 2nd - the it's a compatibility problem with the cdrom and the cdmedia (diferent cd-types)
[09:51] <hijinks> yeah
[09:51] <Enthusiast78> acidjames_, It would be even easier if they came pre-configured with Maildir, because mbox sucks.
[09:51] <Clever_Nick> Doodluv, using ati...thanx
[09:51] <hijinks> the terminal can connect to servers
[09:51] <appelza> How would I scp something to /var/www without root?
[09:52] <appelza> or /etc/apache2
[09:52] <appelza> etc
[09:52] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, if I could only know where to look for
[09:52] <acidjames_> yeah Enthusiast78 mbox is strange
[09:52] <eyequeue> pgn, perhaps fdisk -l
[09:52] <Doodluv> sudo cp /something /var/www
[09:52] <Enthusiast78> acidjames_, Maildir sucks much less than mbox
[09:52] <appelza> Doodluv: 'scp' being the keyword here
[09:52] <hijinks> any ideas about what is wrong?
[09:52] <eyequeue> pgn, i don't recall what is available on the rescue disk
[09:52] <Enthusiast78> acidjames_, Yes, and after your mail server is up and running and you get a few 600MB+ mailboxes things get nasty.
[09:52] <Doodluv> scp something root@192.168.1.1:/var/www
[09:52] <eyequeue> pgn, perhaps fdisk -l hda, i meant
[09:53] <appelza> :/
[09:53] <acidjames_> Enthusiast78, ive used a script that converts all mbox to Maildir if you wonder if that exists
[09:53] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: :-(
[09:53] <appelza> ubuntu doesnt have root?
[09:53] <Doodluv> appelza, obviously replace the ip for ur machine
[09:53] <phaedrus44> Zer0n3 !!!!!!!!!!
[09:53] <phaedrus44> message!!!!!
[09:53] <phaedrus44> hehe
[09:53] <Zer0n3> yes?
[09:53] <Zer0n3> i did
[09:53] <rene32> I did a sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome but cannot find the network manager. Where is it?
[09:53] <eyequeue> !root > appelza
[09:53] <ladydoor> appelza: a) use sudo. b) please look up a little to what i said to you about setting the root password.
[09:53] <Doodluv> aapelza, i assume if you are scp'ing that you a copying from machine to machine. other wise use cp
[09:53] <covOPprometheus> can anyone tell me how to install a driver for a cdrom, of which I don't have it's type/number?
[09:53] <appelza> omfg
[09:53] <Doodluv> appelza, scp is ssh copy
[09:54] <appelza> I know that!!
[09:54] <Zer0n3> phaedrus44:  i have msg'd several times
[09:54] <Enthusiast78> acidjames_, Yes, I do. But still, it's necessary to stop the services to do it. Not to mention the hassle of editing the config files.
[09:54] <pgn> eyequeue: unfortunately, fdisk -l ... does notgive me the labels/mnt_pts
[09:54] <ladydoor> Zer0n3: are you a registered user?
[09:54] <Doodluv> appelza, great what is the problem?
[09:54] <Zer0n3> yeah, i just registered
[09:54] <appelza> I want to copy a file to a ubuntu box's /etc/apache2 folder but I cant because I have no access and I cant copy as root because ubuntu doesnt have a root account
[09:54] <appelza> There you go.
[09:54] <eyequeue> appelza, no reason not to scp to your account, then mv it from there using sudo
[09:54] <Zer0n3> [14:50]  -NickServ- You have already identified
[09:54] <Zer0n3> -
[09:54] <ladydoor> appelza: sudo passwd root
[09:54] <appelza> Thats moronic.
[09:54] <raxor> acidjames_: pastebin is broken, here is the lisp paste... http://paste.lisp.org/display/26115
[09:54] <NthDegree> appelza: it does
[09:54] <Doodluv> eyequeue, thank you buddy
[09:54] <Luci3n> rene32 what are you trying to do??
[09:54] <appelza> Oh?
[09:54] <Doodluv> sheesh
[09:54] <hijinks> any ideas why my apps arent connecting to the internet even though the connection is fine?
[09:54] <NthDegree> appelza: sudo cp /blah /blah2
[09:55] <NthDegree> that copies as root
[09:55] <appelza> ...
[09:55] <ladydoor> appelza: also, if you're going to insult people who try to help you then i'm not sure you're in the right channel
[09:55] <appelza> Thanks.
[09:55] <NthDegree> sudo is the way of running things as root
[09:55] <acidjames_> Enthusiast78, we were using a web based mail client so it was easy for file configs ;)
[09:55] <Doodluv> appelza, we have all said that so please what is the issue
[09:55] <eyequeue> appelza, security features are moronic?  bring that up with the security team, not this channel please
[09:55] <NthDegree> appelza: it asks you for YOUR password when you run sudo
[09:55] <appelza> I'm not asking about sudo!!! :(
[09:55] <rene32> Luci3n: Get WPA running. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo told me to install network-manager, so I did but I cannot find its icon...
[09:55] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, hey, do you know how to unmount the same cdrom?
[09:56] <Doodluv> appelza, if you want to copy to a place that needs root permission then either change hte permsissions or use suod
[09:56] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: sudo umount /path/to/mountpoint (usually /media/cdrom0)
[09:56] <Doodluv> *sudo
[09:56] <covOPprometheus> ladydoor, perhaps it doesn't unmount them properly
[09:56] <NthDegree> appelza: to get a root shell it's sudo -i    i think
[09:56] <ladydoor> covOPprometheus: hmmmmm
[09:56] <appelza> nm
[09:56] <Doodluv> appelza, is seems u are making this harder than it needs to be
[09:56] <mcd> How do I uninstall a program? ie. gFTP
[09:56] <ladydoor> mcd: sudo aptitude uninstall gftp
[09:56] <Doodluv> mcd sudo apt-get remove gftp
[09:56] <mcd> either one?
[09:57] <ladydoor> mcd: actually, it's sudo aptitude remove, not uninstall
[09:57] <Luci3n> I've just configured my usb adapter for wifi using ndiswrapper and ndigtk work very well
[09:57] <appelza> Doodluv: Can you read?
[09:57] <appelza> I'm not ON an ubuntu box
[09:57] <acidjames_> all good raxor, $ sudo apt-get install linux-image-686 linux-restricted-modules-686
[09:57] <ladydoor> appelza: that's uncalled-for
[09:57] <appelza> I dont HAVE ubuntu
[09:57] <Doodluv> appelza, uhhh
[09:57] <covOPprometheus> lady, nope, it wasn't mounted
[09:57] <appelza> I dont have sudo!
[09:57] <appelza> :/
[09:57] <rene32> Luci3n: Nice to hear, but I want to gt this network-managrer-gnome running to enable WPA...
[09:57] <Doodluv> appelza, why are u in #ubuntu, i guessi need to ask, can u use irc?
[09:57] <drh> hi
[09:58] <ladydoor> !attitude
[09:58] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:58] <drh> can anyone tell me how to check where apt-get installs files from the command line?
[09:58] <appelza> I want to copy a file into the root system of an ubuntu system, but I dont have access as any of those users and cant use stupid sudo
[09:58] <covOPprometheus> when I insert a disk into my CDROM it isn't mounted everytime, to be more specific, it almost never mounts, as if the cd's would not be read, can anyone help me?
[09:58] <lukus001> Can someone tell me how I get 32bit applications running on 64bit OS?
[09:58] <appelza> :O
[09:58] <appelza> *sighs*
[09:58] <drh> i.e. I install something using apt-get, then I want to see exactly what and where things were installed?
[09:58] <Tonren> appelza: then, short of hacking, which probably no one in here knows how to do, you're hosed
[09:58] <drh> not sure if there is a cmd or something i can use to do that
[09:58] <ajwasek> what's a good p2p program for ubuntu
[09:58] <Tonren> Okay folks.  How do I redirect output to an external monitor, like a projector?  Anyone?
[09:58] <Doodluv> appelza, you are out of luck if you cannot gain the access you need
[09:59] <Tonren> Also, does anyone with ATI proprietary drivers know how to make sure they were installed properly?
[09:59] <appelza> This has nothing to do with hacking
[09:59] <drh> maybe some flag i can pass to apt-get that shows me what it installs?
[09:59] <ladydoor> appelza: the reason it's set up so you can't do that is so that a malicious cracker couldn't do exactly what you're trying to do
[09:59] <mcd> ladydoor, i accidently deleted the default gftp sites that come on gftp. i thought if i uninstalled and reinstalled it would put them back but they didn't come back. any clue where to get these sites?
[09:59] <Tonren> appelza: Gaining access to a system you're not supposed to have access to == hacking
[09:59] <jrib> drh: dpkg -L package_name
[09:59] <Doodluv> appelza, then find who has root access, and get them to do it
[09:59] <appelza> I have access to that system :/
[09:59] <ladydoor> mcd: i've never used it
[09:59] <Doodluv> ie. system admin
[09:59] <Tonren> mcd: Do you really need the default sites?  Which ones did you use?
[09:59] <drh> jrib: thanks! :)
[10:00] <appelza> I have an account on that system that can do sudo fine.
[10:00] <appelza> That is not the problem here.
[10:00] <reptyle> appelza, get proper permission from the unbuntu target box's administrator to give you a normal account add add you to the admin group.  Otherwise, give the ubuntu's target box's admin your DSA ssh public key so they can add it to roots athorized_keys file.
[10:00] <Tonren> appelza: Then you want to log into it.
[10:00] <Doodluv> =] 
[10:00] <appelza> No, I dont.
[10:00] <mcd> Tonren, on the FAQ it says i need to login into the Debian site to do something to allow me to connect to a site via SSL
[10:00] <appelza> I want to scp file username@ubuntu:/var/www/ and I can't because there is no time to type stupid 'sudo' in between
[10:00] <appelza> So I must do it the long way for 'security' ?
[10:01] <appelza> Come on.
[10:01] <Tonren> appelza: Why don't you just SCP it to your home folder, THEN login and sudo it into the root?
[10:01] <Intangir> whats the command to reconfigure a package you already installed?
[10:01] <appelza> because its tedious
[10:01] <ladydoor> Intangir: sudo dpkg-reconfigure packagename
[10:01] <jrib> appelza: then enable the root account
[10:01] <Tonren> appelza: Oh.  Well for god's sakes, why didn't you say that in the first place?
[10:01] <Intangir> ladydoor: i did that and nothing happened
[10:01] <appelza> Thanks! jrib
[10:01] <appelza> There is a root account?
[10:01] <Intangir> im doing it on exim, im sure exim had a config before..
[10:01] <appelza> Thank you!
[10:01] <Tonren> appelza: Go to #bash or ##linux and ask there.
[10:02] <appelza> Thats all I wanted to know.
[10:02] <mcd> Tonren, do you know how to set a site to connect SSL using gFTP?
[10:02] <eyequeue> appelza, again if you want to complain about the security features of ubuntu, take it up with the security team (lists.ubuntu.com) and NOT this channel!
[10:02] <ladydoor> appelza: that's exactly what i was trying to tell you
[10:02] <appelza> Not how to do a silly sudo. :/
[10:02] <Tonren> mcd: Hmm, I don't, but I don't think you really need the default sites to d oit.
[10:02] <ladydoor> appelza: you can change the root password so you can log in
[10:02] <cess> how do i get my vfat (/dev/sda4) drive to be writable by a regular user so i can transfer files between winxp and ubuntu?
[10:02] <Renan_s2> !info mozilla-firefox-locale-pt
[10:02] <jrib> appelza: of course there is a root account, the password is just empty so you can't login
[10:02] <ubotu> Package mozilla-firefox-locale-pt does not exist in any distro I know
[10:02] <Renan_s2> !info mozilla-firefox-locale-br
[10:02] <appelza> Excellent
[10:02] <appelza> Thanks
[10:02] <ubotu> Package mozilla-firefox-locale-br does not exist in any distro I know
[10:02] <appelza> Sheesh.
[10:02] <Tonren> appelza: A little patience goes a long, long way.
[10:02] <Doodluv> sheesh indeed
[10:02] <voraistos> Well, seems things are going even worse. I tried to remove any damn xserver thing to reinstall a proper one, with good ubuntu repos. I removed a bit too much it sems, and now x tells me that /etc/X11/X is not executable. PLease help . ;-(
[10:02] <Tonren> Okay folks.  How do I redirect output to an external monitor, like a projector?  Anyone?
[10:03] <Tonren> Also, does anyone with ATI proprietary drivers know how to make sure they were installed properly?
[10:03] <BlindSpot> ping
[10:03] <ladydoor> Intangir: did it "do nothing" for a little while before spitting you back into the BASH prompt?
[10:03] <cess> Tonren, exec "fgl_glxgears" or look for ATI in "fglrxinfo"
[10:03] <shut-> how u change ur root pass
[10:03] <jrib> !sudo > shut-
[10:03] <ubuntu_> What's the difference between var= and unset var in bash?
[10:03] <eyequeue> !root > shut-
[10:04] <cess> shut-, "sudo passwd root"
[10:04] <Tonren> cess: Uh-oh.  I got an X error.
[10:04] <shut-> ok
[10:04] <Tonren> cess: if I pastebin it, can you take a look at it for me?
[10:04] <cess> Tonren, i can try to help
[10:04] <appelza> Tonren: I dont mind waiting for an answer, but scroll and read.  I was getting the wrong answers, then I tell them thats not what I'm looking for and they don't listen. :)
[10:04] <appelza> Ah well.
[10:04] <appelza> Sorted now, ktnx
[10:04] <mcd> Are there any other FTP programs besides gFTP?
[10:04] <shut-> didnt work
[10:04] <covOPprometheus> when I insert a disk into my CDROM it isn't mounted everytime, to be more specific, it almost never mounts, as if the cd's would not be read, can anyone help me?
[10:04] <jrib> shut-: read the wiki page ubotu sent you
[10:05] <cess> shut-, "sudo passwd root" changes the root password
[10:05] <Doodluv> they dont listen, eh
[10:05] <eyequeue> cess, please don't advise that in here
[10:05] <cess> eyequeue, well he wants to know how to change it
[10:05] <ladydoor> Doodluv: i'd just ignore him. he ignored instructions on how to give root a password 3 times. i think he just wants trouble
[10:05] <eyequeue> cess, then point him to the wiki
[10:06] <Tonren> cess: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23545
[10:06] <korba-> i have an issue it's driving me crazy
[10:06] <compilerwriter> I need to know if anyone is using SIP to connect to users in windows and what server and windows client these people are using.
[10:06] <korba-> i can't collect data from snmp on the ubuntu box
[10:06] <b_52Centos> is there a nagios user ?
[10:06] <shut-> it asks for a usrname
[10:06] <shut-> i mean pass
[10:06] <ladydoor> shut-: right. you enter your password to use sudo
[10:06] <ubuntu_> shut-: It wants your password
[10:06] <Doodluv> ladydoor, i agree
[10:06] <SillyZ> greetings ... Im getting an error in ubuntu, deals with sound when i try to open the mixer or volume adjust im getting "No Volume control or GStreamer plugins and/or devices found".... Yet this was working earlier today without issue....
[10:07] <raxor> acidjames_: I got that installed, but I still have the problem it seems
[10:07] <cess> ahh Tonren. you're using the ATI driver from the Ubuntu repos?
[10:07] <korba-> is anybody in position to render assistance ?
[10:07] <Tonren> cess: No, I downloaded it from the ATI site
[10:07] <Vegeta^> If I want to use packages from other location for LaTeX, is it the command "export TEXINPUTS=::~/<somelocation>"? Or is there an error in the command? What is the exact command. Im unsure...
[10:07] <shut-> so not root pass
[10:08] <ubuntu_> shut-: Right
[10:08] <shut-> lol i am stupid
[10:08] <ubuntu_> shut-: No Just new
[10:08] <korba-> the problem is that my snmp daemon wouldn't refresh values when polled
[10:08] <GoogL0e> is linux worth the effort?
[10:08] <Renan_s2> GoogL0e, yes it is.
[10:09] <AndroidData> hello. I installed WINE using the add/remove programs utility. Now, I need to install DCOM98 (for windows 98) but it's complaining and telling me I'm using NT. I tried running "winesetup" and searching around a bit, but I can't find any config files for WINE.
[10:09] <mcd> Anybody have any sugggestions on what FTP program to use besides gFTP?
[10:09] <shut-> E: Couldn't find package xchat
[10:09] <AndroidData> any help? I need to configure my WINE to act like 98
[10:09] <shut-> how come i get that
[10:09] <raxor> GoogL0e: What effort? Download Ubuntu, pop in the CD, reboot... 15 minutes later you have linux
[10:09] <ajwasek> what's a good p2p program for ubuntu
[10:09] <Renan_s2> Android, winecfg
[10:09] <AndroidData> I see. thanks!
[10:09] <cess> Tonren, did you install the drivers from the ATI site like this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=204910
[10:09] <jrib> !info xchat
[10:09] <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
[10:09] <shut-> yes ur right ubuntu
[10:09] <jrib> !repos > shut-
[10:09] <Tonren> cess: I did so as advised on the wiki.  but hang on, lemme check the thread
[10:10] <ladydoor> ajwasek: what kind of p2p are you looking for?
[10:10] <acidjames_> did you reboot raxor ?
[10:10] <ajwasek> something like limewire
[10:10] <shut-> u pwn jrib
[10:10] <korba-> snmp problem: snmp daemon wouldn't refresh the InOctects value when polled ... can anyone help ?
[10:10] <Tonren> cess: Yeah... I dont think I ran ATI config though
[10:10] <obf213> i need help gettiing my computer to restart again
[10:10] <obf213> and shut donw normally
[10:10] <ladydoor> ajwasek: frostwire is popular, i think, and i believe there's also a limewire binary for linux floating around the interwubs somewhere (or so i heard)
[10:10] <cess> also, try blacklisting the fglrx driver in the repos by editing the /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common file
[10:11] <cess> Tonren, ^^
[10:11] <ajwasek> thanks :)
[10:11] <GoogL0e> Do Ubuntu get slower over time?
[10:11] <reptyle> !gtk-gnutella > ajwasek
[10:11] <Tonren> cess: Hmmm
[10:11] <Tonren> GoogL0e: It shouldn't.
[10:11] <Subhuman> ladydoor, yeah frostwire is good, you need to run it like "bash /usr/lib/frostwire/RunFrost.sh"
[10:11] <ubuntu_> GoogL0e: It can
[10:11] <cess> Tonren, blacklist fglrx, reinstall, run aticonfig
[10:11] <Subhuman> cuz bash symlinks to dash now.
[10:11] <korba-> snmp problem <==> snmp daemon wouldn't refresh the InOctects value when polled ... can anyone help ?
[10:11] <GoogL0e> does ubuntu use Ram well?
[10:11] <ubuntu_> GoogL0e: Not terribly so unless you are really hard drive dependent
[10:11] <ladydoor> Subhuman: unless, of course, you made a symlink in /usr/local
[10:11] <obf213> any one think they can help me get my computer to restart again
[10:11] <ladydoor> Subhuman: */usr/local/bin
[10:12] <cess> GoogL0e, runs good for me. I'm running XGL/Compiz as well :D
[10:12] <ladydoor> Subhuman: in which case you could just run it with the name of the symlink
[10:12] <ajwasek> so can ubuntu run any type of tarball or are there special packages for only ubuntu
[10:12] <Subhuman> ladydoor, yeah you can do that too.
[10:12] <raxor> acidjames_: Gah! Reboot failed!
[10:12] <mcd> I'm sorry ladydoor sudo apt-get remove gftp command doesn't seem to be working. Do you remember the other command the guy said?
[10:12] <Tonren> cess: reinstall...?  I already blacklisted it before I did it n the first place
[10:12] <AndroidData> ok. 2 problems: when I click "audio" winecfg closes and says "ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory".
[10:13] <kitche> ajwasek: ubuntu uses .deb for packages but you can compile stuff if you install the metapackage for building
[10:13] <AndroidData> also, I typed winecfg and set the os for default to "Windows 98" but DCOM98 still won't install (still complains it can't be installed on NT)
[10:13] <cess> Tonren, yea then you should see ATI vendor info instead of Mesa in the "fglrxinfo"
[10:13] <Luci3n> mcd have a look at this http://mondaybynoon.com/2006/09/11/linux-and-web-development-part-2/
[10:13] <ajwasek> and how do i go about installing the metapackages
[10:13] <raxor> acidjames_: whoa... that was odd... worked second time :)
[10:13] <ubuntu_> obf213: Hi Haven't seen you in a bit
[10:13] <ubuntu_> obf213: Whats up?
[10:13] <ladydoor> mcd: that was his suggestion, actually. and if apt-get can't do it, aptitude can't either in this case. does it say why you can't?
[10:13] <Tonren> cess: WTF.. I definitely blacklisted it in restricted-modules
[10:14] <obf213> ubuntu_ : i messed with some rrun level stuff and my comptuer doesnt reboot anymore
[10:14] <ubuntu_> obf213: What are you running from now?
[10:14] <obf213> ?
[10:14] <raxor> acidjames_: spoke too soon.. something wrong with grub defaults for 686
[10:14] <ubuntu_> Windows? Your cell phone? a Wifi enabled Coconut tree?
[10:14] <rahsputin> hihi, i have a HP Laserjet 1018, any idea how i can get it to run?
[10:14] <mcd> ladydoor, says gftp is not installed so it can't be removed. makes sense but it still is in applications>internet
[10:15] <obf213> ubuntu_: the shut down process is also very wierd, it doesnt seemt o stop any services it just said: stopping usplsah time out, then it said will now halt
[10:15] <obf213> shut down was about 4 seconds
[10:15] <cess> woops,
[10:15] <ubuntu_> obf213: What did you do/ :-)
[10:15] <ladydoor> mcd: aha; try sudo aptitude install gftp. it's possible your panel just didn't get updated or something (which you could double-check by doing killall gnome-panel to restart it, i *think*)
[10:15] <obf213> i turned off some of the run levels for things i didnt use
[10:15] <pibarnas> asus k8v-x + samsung sata hdd = could anyone install a ubuntu system in this hardware? Is it possible?
[10:15] <compilerwriter> Anyone able to help with softphone's

[10:16] <pibarnas> asus k8v-x + samsung sata hdd = could anyone install a ubuntu system in this hardware? Is it possible?
[10:16] <obf213> somehow  or somewher i guess i screwed up.
[10:16] <ubuntu_> obf213: Right so now it doesn't do anything. What's the issue?
[10:16] <obf213> this is wht i used http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89491
[10:16] <GoogL0e> Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[10:16] <Xal_> Hi, I'm having problems getting surround sound working in ubuntu. I have the correct channel setting, but all I can manage to do is duplicate front to back channels, still not gettin center output or sub
[10:16] <rahsputin> ubuntu
[10:17] <raxor> acidjames_: Think I have it... I had a customized grub because I run off of hdb1 instead of hda
[10:17] <cess> Tonren, try using the 8.27.10 version. that is what worked for me
[10:17] <noxs> hi all
[10:17] <GoogL0e> I hear bill clinton uses ubuntu
[10:17] <cess> the 8.28 version gave me issues
[10:17] <Tonren> cess: err.. should I just DL From the repos?
[10:18] <compilerwriter> If he uses ubuntu I am changing to another os.
[10:18] <noxs> how to activate routing?
[10:18] <Tonren> cess: Also, will this freaking enable Fn + F4, the "activate external monitor" hotkey?
[10:18] <obf213> ubuntu_: using the pciturs i ewent back to deafult on everything but it still doesnt reboot
[10:18] <ladydoor> compilerwriter: could we keep quasi-political discussions in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:18] <ladydoor> ?
[10:18] <cess> Tonren, what type of computer you have?
[10:18] <pibarnas> nope, bill clinton uses red flag linux.
[10:18] <compilerwriter> I just answered the GoogL0e's post.
[10:18] <noxs> im using a notebook via wireless (internet) an want to connect another notebook using the ethernet connection between notebook 1 and notebook 2
[10:18] <cess> most of my Fn keys has always worked
[10:19] <raxor> uggg... stupid bakefile config.
[10:19] <Tonren> cess: HP Compaq Presario v2565US, it's a mid-range widescreen laptop
[10:19] <shut-> how do u create dir is it like ckdir -p /usr/java/
[10:19] <SillyZ> is there a command to force ubuntu to run thru a hardware detection phase?
[10:19] <Tonren> cess: Do you have the same?  None of my Fn keys work.  none.
[10:19] <raxor> shut-: mkdir
[10:19] <ladydoor> compilerwriter: regardless.
[10:19] <Ia1> Should I be able to install a printer in the bootable cd ubuntu?  I install a new printer in the GUI but it never shows up.
[10:19] <Tonren> cess: Actually, that's a horrible lie.  The media keys AND contrast keys work.  But the freakin' external monitor one doesn't!!! And it is the one I want the most!
[10:19] <compilerwriter> yes ladydoor.
[10:20] <ladydoor> compilerwriter: thanks muchly.
[10:20] <bruenig> when one goes to system>quit and hit shutdown, what is the command used there that shuts down?
[10:20] <compilerwriter> Now can you help me with the softphone issue?
[10:20] <ompaul> SillyZ, you can do lshw to find out what it has detected
[10:20] <ompaul> bruenig, shutdown -h now
[10:20] <cess> Tonren, i run Acer Aspire 5672 and my external works
[10:20] <SillyZ> lshw... ok I was hoping for something that did a hardware detection and configuration
[10:20] <bruenig> ompaul, when you do that in the terminal it says you must be root
[10:20] <Tonren> cess: Gah.. mine doesn't even THINK about working.  It doesn't do anything.  I may as well not be hitting the button at all.  :\
[10:20] <cess> Tonren, well when i hit the keys this monitor goes black so i'm guessing it works
[10:20] <Tonren> cess: Is there a command line way to do it, or something?
[10:21] <Tonren> cess: not for me.  :\
[10:21] <GoogL0e> What is the future for linux?
[10:21] <ompaul> bruenig, and if you type >> sudo shutdown -h now <<what happens (including the now)
[10:21] <cess> Tonren, cmdline? not sure. you could probably setup xorg.conf to run dual monitors
[10:21] <bruenig> ompaul, I am just wondering how they get it to shutdown without having you provide a password when you do it graphically
[10:21] <mcd> when i install a program thru the "sudo apt-get install" command where is the directory?
[10:21] <bruenig> I know that sudo shutdown -h now, will shut it down
[10:21] <Tonren> cess: I got this warning with ATIconfig:
[10:21] <Tonren> Warning: Option 'VideoOverlay' doesn't affect running session.
[10:21] <Tonren> Warning: Option 'OpenGLOverlay' doesn't affect running session.
[10:22] <Tonren> Is that bad?
[10:22] <ompaul> bruenig, ahh good question, no answer for you atm
[10:22] <cess> Tonren, not sure haha
[10:22] <SillyZ> well maybe itll pick it up on a reboot.... brb
[10:22] <Tonren> cess: haha
[10:22] <compilerwriter> GoogLOe, the future for linux seems to be very bright.  Especially if MS keeps doing things like developing OSs that require 1gig of ram.
[10:22] <cess> Tonren, just remove it from the xorg.conf
[10:22] <bruenig> maybe a good forum question
[10:22] <Tonren> cess: Dual monitors..?  but I'm not ALWAYS connected to a projector.
[10:22] <Tonren> cess: this is maddening.  I wonder why mine doesn't work? There's gotta be an answer.
[10:22] <shut-> k
[10:23] <ompaul> compilerwriter, Linux can work wonders with 1G of ram
[10:23] <eternalswd> does anyone know how to keep external drives from going into sleep mode because it unmounts every time it does that and it's rather annoying
[10:23] <cess> Tonren, buy acer aspire :)
[10:23] <ladydoor> mcd: the binary generally gets installed to /usr/bin. libraries go into /usr/lib. documentation goes into /usr/share/man/man[whatever] . other docs such as example rcs go into /usr/share/doc
[10:23] <ubuntu_> GoogL0e: What ever you make it
[10:23] <cess> brb, gotta restart X :p
[10:24] <Dybber> How do I set up a network between 2 Ubuntu computers?
[10:24] <Tonren> cess: I've heard terrifying, horrible things about Acers.  And they seem skeezy.  And I"m poor! :(
[10:24] <Tonren> Anyone on an HP laptop that's gotten external monitor working?
[10:24] <compilerwriter> ompaul I know that.  Linux can work wonders with far less ram.  I was commenting on the fact Vista is reccommended to have at least 1 gig of ram on board and that linux has a very bright future if Microsoft keeps doing stuff like that.
[10:24] <raxor> How do I know what kernel I am running?
[10:24] <fyrestrtr> uname -r
[10:24] <Xal_> Is there a way to get 5.1 surround sound to work in ALSA with a Realtek ALC850?
[10:24] <Ia1> Should I be able to install a printer in the bootable cd ubuntu?  I install a new printer in the GUI but it never shows up.
[10:25] <compilerwriter> Linux is doing wonders with 500meg of ram for me.

[10:36] <AndroidData> ok. let's try this again...
[10:36] <lukus001> I cant find anything
[10:36] <bruenig> not a BSOD on linux!?!?
[10:36] <emil> i'd like to install google earth, i downloaded the file (bin), but how to nstall?
[10:36] <bruenig> bsod - blue screen of death
[10:36] <Tonren> cess: fglrxinfo now outputs stuff about ATI.  any other way to test the install success?
[10:36] <eternalswd> how do I append terminal output to a file?
[10:37] <SillyZ> eternalswd:  try command > file
[10:37] <Symbolizer> it asks me if i wannna see the error-log.
[10:37] <homer_linux> symbolizer have just just update the nvidia restricted package think   had the same problem
[10:37] <SillyZ> use >> to append, the > will overwrite
[10:37] <bruenig> eternalswd, just add > whatever.txt to the end of it
[10:37] <dibblego> Symbolizer, have you looked at the error log?
[10:37] <bruenig> oh append
[10:37] <bruenig> ah
[10:37] <Symbolizer> dibblego, im not used to the "text-based" linux actually..
[10:37] <AndroidData> hello. I'm Data. I'm using UBUNTU (latest, just installed) and I installed WINE. I have a specific application that I want to run with WINE (BYOND, since the Linux version is text-only). At the moment, the main program is giving me an "Application Error" which either has to do with the richtext dll or IE. any help?
[10:37] <emil> i'd like to install google earth, i downloaded the file (bin), but how to nstall?
[10:38] <dibblego> Symbolizer, surely you can try?
[10:38] <aceracer24> Anyone know how to restart InitNG? It segfaulted when I did sudo ngc -L.
[10:38] <Symbolizer> homer_linux, thanks i'll try that
[10:38] <lostinc> Is there a easy way to remove fonts that are not relevant to the english language?
[10:38] <ompaul> emil, chmod 766 GoogleEarthLinux.bin && sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[10:38] <SillyZ> ugh I really dont want to have to re-install ubuntu over a silly little sound issue..... anyone got time for a sound problem?
[10:38] <ubuntu__523> I am getting a Kernal Panic error on my x64 program. What is wrong
[10:38] <Symbolizer> dibblego, of course :-)=
[10:38] <Agrajag> 766?
[10:38] <covOPprometheus> when I insert a disk into my CDROM it isn't mounted everytime, to be more specific, it almost never mounts, as if the cd's would not be read, can anyone help me?
[10:38] <Agrajag> what kind of bizarre-ass permission is 766?
[10:38] <erUSUL> emil: chmod +x file.bin && sudo file.bin &
[10:39] <Agrajag> Why would you want san executable file to be world-writeable?
[10:39] <emil> thanks ompaul and erUSUL
[10:39] <SillyZ> thatd be rwxrw-rw- i belive 766
[10:39] <bruenig> Arajag, 766, gives read write execute permissions to the user, and read and write execute priveleges to the group and others
[10:39] <AndroidData> :[
[10:39] <Agrajag> SillyZ: I know that
[10:39] <SillyZ> Agrajag: you asked, so i told ya
[10:39] <Agrajag> bruenig: why would you want world write priveleges on any file you plan on executing?
[10:39] <Agrajag> 744 I could understand, or 755
[10:40] <SillyZ> but yes 766 is a bizzare arsed permission set
[10:40] <Agrajag> but to allow anyone to write to the file if they're not allowed to execute it?
[10:40] <emil> ompaul: how do i define that it's located on de desktop
[10:40] <trappist> SillyZ?
[10:40] <smax> error: stdio.h: No such file or directory  why?
[10:40] <SillyZ> trappist: trappist?
[10:40] <ompaul> Agrajag, cos I am evil  (typo tbh I need a rest)
[10:40] <tuxtux__> ciao a tutti
[10:40] <bruenig> Agrajag, perhaps some weird scenario needs it
[10:40] <trappist> SillyZ: long time no see, if you're who I think you are
[10:40] <Agrajag> smax: stdio.h is a microsoft library
[10:40] <ladydoor> Symbolizer: the terminal isn't so bad once you get used to it--and at first, it's usually ok to copy/paste. but it's good to get to where it doesn't intimidate you because it's *much* easier to, for example, say "do adduser username" than to try to walk you through all the steps to do the same thing in the gui
[10:40] <eternalswd> okay, the time command isn't working in doing time > file.txt  how do I get the current time to the file.  this is in a bash script
[10:40] <smax> no it is not a MS lib
[10:40] <SillyZ> Its me trappist.... same ol sillyz from the mandunked days
[10:41] <smax> jesus christ.  it's part of the ansi c standard
[10:41] <smax> i even installed libc6-dev
[10:41] <Agrajag> smax: well it's not in GNU C anyway
[10:41] <trappist> SillyZ: so many from back then have seen the light, and show up here :)
[10:41] <smax> it is on my gentoo box
[10:41] <ladydoor> eternalswd: date?
[10:41] <Agrajag> wait
[10:41] <smax> and the schools sun bux
[10:41] <smax> box
[10:41] <emil> erUSUL: How do i define that it's on de destktop
[10:41] <tuxtux__> reboot
[10:41] <Agrajag> am I thinking of conio
[10:41] <ompaul> emil, actually do it slightly differently, chmod 744 /home/username/GoogleEarthLinux.bin && shGoogleEarthLinux.bin
[10:41] <Agrajag> yes I am, I'm a moron
[10:41] <smax> am i missing something from $path ?
[10:41] <ompaul> emil, actually do it slightly differently>> chmod 744 /home/username/GoogleEarthLinux.bin && sh GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[10:41] <SillyZ> trappist: Yup, saw the light coming along time ago, and it was the train.....
[10:41] <erUSUL> emil: ?? define what ??
[10:41] <Agrajag> smax: are you using gcc or g++?
[10:41] <smax> gcc
[10:41] <aceracer24> Anyone know how to restart InitNG? It segfaulted when I did sudo ngc -L.
[10:41] <smax> always
[10:41] <Agrajag> huh
[10:41] <eternalswd> ladydoor, that's the one I was looking for, thanks
[10:42] <Agrajag> ok
[10:42] <ompaul> smax, build-essetial for that
[10:42] <trappist> smax: sudo apt-get install build-essential and be done with it
[10:42] <Agrajag> Did you install build-essential?
[10:42] <smax> ahh
[10:42] <smax> thanx guys
[10:42] <ompaul> smax, build-essential without the typo
[10:42] <ladydoor> eternalswd: sweet!
[10:42] <Siphroma> What is a good client for linux for gnutella
[10:42] <SillyZ> trappist : join #sillyz
[10:43] <smax> it is already the newest version
[10:43] <JoseStefan> !p2p
[10:43] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network). BitTorrent: see !torrent Direct connect: try valknut. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[10:43] <lukus001> Can someone please tell me how to chroot my system to rub 32bit applications?
[10:43] <Siphroma> Thanks
[10:43] <mathieu> smax: show how you compile
[10:43] <smax> gcc app.c
[10:43] <lukus001> lol run :p
[10:44] <mathieu> smax: and app has #include <stdio.h> ?
[10:44] <smax> of course
[10:44] <mathieu> app.c
[10:44] <smax> yes  it worked on an other box
[10:44] <smax> it
[10:44] <smax> it's a one file app.
[10:44] <mathieu> smax: try this: gcc -I/usr/include app.c
[10:44] <Agrajag> lukus001: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24575&highlight=32-bit+chroot
[10:45] <mathieu> smax: it's an ubuntu box?
[10:45] <quiet> s/an/a
[10:45] <Agrajag> I used that guide way back in breezy and it works fine
[10:45] <smax> no Debian it work.  but gcc -I/usr/include  doesent work.  still same compile errors
[10:45] <lukus001> Agrajag, thank you, ill have a look at the link
[10:45] <smax> are the headers there?
[10:45] <mathieu> smax: ls /usr/include/stdio.h
[10:45] <aceracer24> Anyone know how to restart InitNG? It segfaulted when I did sudo ngc -L.
[10:45] <mathieu> smax: what does that say?
[10:46] <Vegeta^> Are all the ports closed when Linux (ubuntu) is installed? Or are there some open? Like 6881 for KTorrent and etc.?
[10:46] <quiet> Vegeta^, they're open if you're not running a firewall
[10:46] <smax> mathieu:  that whole dir is practically empty
[10:46] <lukus001> Agrajag, Yeah I used one back in beeezy's day that was really easy to do (might be this one) and worked a charm... the one in ubuntu's wiki killed my system
[10:46] <smax> where do i get the headers?
[10:46] <bruenig> Vegeta^, you can open a terminal and do sudo iptables --flush
[10:46] <jpjacobs> Vegeta^, they are closed by default
[10:46] <mathieu> smax: reinstall libc6-dev
[10:46] <smax> i have that libc6-dev
[10:46] <mathieu> REINSTALL
[10:47] <smax> ok
[10:47] <jpjacobs> Vegeta^,  most of them that is...if you want to check (and you are'nt behind a NATTing router, look this way: www.auditmypc.com
[10:48] <mathieu> smax: some files might have been deleted. if you have libc6-dev, the files should be there. so reinstalling should fix it. unless you're not running ubuntu
[10:48] <mathieu> reinstall is aptitude reinstall (or apt-get install --reinstall)
[10:49] <quiet> where is the iptables config in Ubuntu anyways?
[10:49] <Agrajag> he should probably reinstall build-essential in case something else got screwed up as well
[10:49] <smax> mathieu:  reinstalling it worked.  thanx buddy
[10:49] <Agrajag> if linc6-dev got wiped some other packages might have also
[10:49] <mathieu> Agrajag: reinstalling build-essential won't do anything. it's a virtual package
[10:49] <Agrajag> oh, it won't reinstall the packages it depends on?
[10:49] <Agrajag> damn
[10:49] <mathieu> Agrajag: it only has dependencies. reinstall won't affect dependencies
[10:49] <kotatsu> anyone else unable to boot edgy with the latest kernel?
[10:50] <mathieu> smax: no problem. glad i could help you
[10:50] <bruenig> quiet, you can use the terminal and iptables or firestarter is supposed to be a good graphical front end for iptables
[10:50] <quiet> i don't want graphical... isn't there a config file to edit?
[10:51] <bruenig> quiet, do man iptables
[10:51] <mathieu> quiet: there's no config file. you can create a shell script that's run on startup (before the network goes live)
[10:51] <mathieu> quiet: well, that's how i do it anyway, maybe there a fancy way in the meanwhile
[10:51] <mathieu> there's
[10:52] <jpjacobs> quiet, there is iptables-save and iptables-restore to facilitate the setting of the rules
[10:52] <quiet> :\  there HAS to be a config file SOMEWHERE... how else would it store rules?
[10:52] <quiet> red hat is /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config
[10:52] <quiet> maybe i'm just used to PF.
[10:52] <mathieu> quiet: it's kept in memory i guess

[10:54] <dk06> hey philh are u here
[10:54] <dk06> so yeah
[10:54] <dk06> has anyone ever tried to install nvidia drivers before?
[10:55] <skypa> someone with a gnupg capable mail client and a keypair willing to do 2 minutes of testing with me? :)
[10:55] <dk06> cuz i just did, and i messed up my x with one command
[10:55] <dk06> its when you type sudo nvidia-glx-enable config
[10:55] <dk06> i did that, and i got an error
[10:55] <dk06> and it asked me to do 1 of 2 things
[10:55] <mathieu> dk06: where does that tool come from?
[10:55] <dk06> umm
[10:55] <dk06> i dunno
[10:56] <dk06> anywhom
[10:56] <dk06> so
[10:56] <dk06> the first option is someting to do with md5chksum
[10:56] <mathieu> dk06: check the ubuntu online docs on how to configure the nivdia driver
[10:56] <dk06> and the second
[10:56] <dk06> is
[10:56] <mathieu> and forget about the rest
[10:56] <dk06> to change "nv" to "nvidia" in your xorg.conf
[10:56] <dk06> so i tried the second one
[10:56] <dk06> and it didnt work
[10:56] <Sarra_> Is there a way to defrag FAT partitions in Ubuntu?
[10:56] <dk06> so then i tried the first one
[10:57] <dk06> and it did someting
[10:57] <dk06> and now my x is messed

[10:57] <ubuntu___> Hello
[10:57] <ubuntu___> I Hello
[10:57] <lostinc> Opps I walk away for five min and there is 20 pages of chat to read through so I will just ask again are there packages to remove that will remove the non-english fonts?
[10:57] <ubuntu___> I am geting a Kernal Panic

[11:01] <Agrajag> dk06: man screen, read up on it. Basically you run screen, it gives you a new console to work in. You hit ctrl-a, d to detach. then at any time you can go back to it by running screen -r
[11:01] <Morten_> ohh ok, thx dk06
[11:01] <jpjacobs> Morten_, adjust your /etc/X11/Xorg.conf to include other ranges

[11:11] <THX-1138> vesa is an early way of controlling the screen

[11:12] <mathieu> well, vesafb actually. it's a universal framebuffer. it allows you to use higher resolution & show pictures in console
[11:12] <dk06> is there  a way to play music from console?
[11:12] <m4rk> i did jpjacobs but it says /dev/video1 no such device
[11:12] <mathieu> dk06: sure, use a command-line musicplayer
[11:12] <dk06> awesome
[11:12] <mwe> dk06: mplayer for example
[11:12] <dk06> im gonna have lots of fun with command line :D

[11:12] <Lynoure> m4rk: depends a lot  on which one, some are plain not linux friendly
[11:12] <dk06> are there games to play in console?
[11:12] <dk06> lol
[11:13] <dk06> maybe hangman

[11:13] <jpjacobs> m4rk, try looking in the output of dmesg|tail just after plugging the thing in, it should say which device it is connected too
[11:13] <ladydoor> dk06: you might also check out pytone for music. and nethack for games
[11:13] <mathieu> clanbomber is a framebuffer game

[11:15] <WillRock> that release?
[11:16] <Hybernate> still cant find where to get the support for mp3 files on the restricted page

[11:17] <Paddy_EIRE> what will open/convert a ".daa" (I think its an iso belonging to poweriso) file and burn it in linux
[11:17] <kitche> WillRock what do you mean numb?
[11:17] <Hybernate> sorry OS
[11:18] <THX-1138> mp3 is patented and costs money for every binary distributed. (at least here in the U.S.)
[11:18] <mathieu> everywhere
[11:18] <WillRock> numb in the sense that why bother with visual updates...i mean having them is nice...but better not to term them as features;i would rather have the display and audio drivers fixed
 great movie :)

[11:20] <WillRock> not a single mention of the fix of display drivers
[11:20] <THX-1138> Hello Howlingman
[11:20] <Who_> I have a disk that crashes fsck
[11:20] <MrRio> Howlingmadman: depends on the makes/model
[11:20] <Brinks> does Ubuntu have drivers for the Linksys WMP11 v2.7?
[11:20] <Who_> is there anything I can do?
[11:20] <bintrue|work> I'm having some problems with a remote x application and ubuntu. It works fine on fedora and SuSe workstations but I keep getting an error about  not being able to connect to the X Server.

[11:21] <mathieu> bintrue|work: how are you setting up the X connection?
[11:21] <WillRock> .....
[11:21] <WillRock> well?
[11:21] <sethk> Brinks, more likely a key issue, if your wireless net uses a key
[11:21] <korba-> what can i do if a packaget is one or two versions behind ?
[11:21] <Howlingmadman> thanks
[11:21] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know how to burn .daa in linux

[11:22] <Ubunfoo> Since installing compiz, I've lost my windows key controls for amarok.  Anyone have any ideas?
[11:22] <Telroth|School> Paddy_EIRE, you have to install powerISO on windows
[11:22] <bintrue|work> mathieu, my ubunut box is the workstation with the remote server being an Irix box. I telnet into the irix box and should be able to just run a command. (at least thats how it works on other linux distros in my office)
will wine run this app
[11:22] <korba-> mathieu - no the problem is that the version in the _repository_ is outdated
[11:22] <Telroth|School> Paddy_EIRE, and then hack it if the file is larger than 300 mb
[11:22] <sethk> korba-, behind what?  I'm not sure whether you mean there is a newer version of the program for which a package isn't available, or you are upgrading by more than one version, or what.
[11:22] <Telroth|School> Paddy_EIRE, i don't know, i haven't tried it
[11:22] <Who_> Ubunfoo: it will probably be becuase you have Compiz using the Windows key for something - like moving a windo
[11:22] <Who_> w
[11:22] <mathieu> bintrue|work: is $DISPLAY set correctly? does your X server accept remote connections?
[11:22] <korba-> sethk: first option
[11:23] <sethk> korba-, compile from source, or use the older version.
[11:23] <korba-> newer version of the program for which there isn't a package
[11:23] <CromagDK> dude, anyone installed winamp with wine ?
[11:23] <mathieu> bintrue|work: you might have to remove -nolisten from the gdm or kdm config
[11:23] <MrRio> Howlingmadman: ftp://ftp.support.acer-euro.com/notebook/aspire_3020_5020/driver/80211g.zip
[11:23] <CromagDK> im only able to move them all sepretly heh
[11:23] <bintrue|work> mathieu, I can run remote apps via ssh but not telnet
[11:23] <Who_> anyone know what to do when fsck brings the computer _seriously_ down - no SYS REQ or anything...?
[11:23] <bintrue|work> mathieu, gdm/kdm I thought that was only xserverrc
[11:23] <m4rk> jpjacobs: it says [17181208.172000]  usb 4-1.3: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7
[11:23] <Who_> I want to file a bug but I don't know how to find out more
[11:24] <JoseStefan> !winamp
[11:24] <ubotu> winamp is a windows music player. On Ubuntu you can use beep-media-player or xmms as alternative.
could this be done if i ran a version of windows for this task alone on a vmware virtual os running on the same harddrive as my ubuntu, i have 1600 athlon xp with 512 system ram
[11:24] <mathieu> bintrue|work: gdm has an option to provide -nolisten to the X server. it's on by default
[11:24] <Caplain> what do i need to install to watch mpg's and avi's?
[11:24] <mathieu> bintrue|work: i had the same problem
[11:24] <jpjacobs> m4rk, then it doesn't get recognized natively. google for more info on your cam+linux
[11:24] <ISOLATEDViRuS> hey guys
[11:24] <sethk> Who_, are you sure it never comes back?
[11:24] <bintrue|work> mathieu, thanks I will look into that
[11:24] <ISOLATEDViRuS> i need to mount a new hdd i have
[11:24] <Telroth|School> Paddy_EIRE, depends. you probably could.
[11:24] <sethk> Who_, does the caps lock light respond to the caps lock key?  is the disk activity light on?
[11:24] <korba-> sethk: ok i can do that .. only thing is about directories ... i understand compiling may install to a different directory as opposed to packages
[11:24] <mathieu> bintrue|work: check ps aux | grep X   you should see -nolisten there. you need to get rid of it
[11:25] <sethk> korba-, by default, but easy to override
 what version of windows would be least resource consuming for this??
[11:25] <m4rk> jpjacobs: ok thanks i'll see what i can work out
[11:25] <ISOLATEDViRuS> how do i mount a new harddrive?
[11:25] <sethk> korba-, the default for a source package is usually /usr/local, but there is an override option you can use on the configure step
[11:25] <THX-1138> Paddy_EIRE It will work. though more ram maybe 750mb will keep you from using any swap file
[11:25] <Telroth|School> Paddy_EIRE, i think you have to have XP to run powerISO. 2k may also work
[11:25] <sethk> korba-, with most programs there is also an override that works on the install step.
[11:25] <dk06> how do u browse up and down in console
[11:25] <Nezza> damn any one know of a guide howto install fluxbox from a server install?
[11:25] <axee> how can i increase my screen resolution, its only 1024x768 - i have my graphics card installed now :o
[11:25] <sethk> korba-, and a third option is to use a symbolic link, e.g., link /usr/local/bin/xyz to /usr/bin/xyz
[11:25] <korba-> sethk: yes, but how do i know where the package installed the files, so i overwrite them ?
 with the setup ive got would it still be possible even if its slow
[11:26] <ISOLATEDViRuS> !mount

[11:26] <salim> I want to install anjuta 2.0.2, but it doesnt work, the only unstable version available is 1.2.4a
[11:26] <Paddy_EIRE> nice one
[11:26] <sethk> korba-, you mean the new one, or the one that's already installed?
[11:26] <salim> although I've added unstable
[11:26] <ISOLATEDViRuS> grr
[11:26] <sethk> korba-, you can get a list of files associated with a package.
 is vmware hard to setup
[11:26] <dk06> telrtohschool
[11:26] <ISOLATEDViRuS> !mounting
[11:26] <Who_> sethk: disk activity light never actually works
[11:26] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted  -  Formatting partitions: see the manual page for mkfs ("man mkfs")  -  Mounting partitions in Gnome: System -> Administration -> Disks
[11:26] <dk06> i cant browse all the way up
[11:26] <korba-> sethk: good, how do i do that ?
[11:26] <dk06> because there is a man
[11:26] <sethk> korba-, with the source, after building,     make -n install     will show you the installation commands without actually executing them
[11:26] <dk06> i cant browse above the man
[11:27] <sethk> Who_, that's odd.  is the hardware broken do you think?
[11:27] <Who_> sethk: I left it about an hour... Didnt think to check num/caps lock but normally if sysreq+B does nothing then it won't work
[11:27] <sethk> Who_, obviously it shouldn't crash the system even if the hardware is broken.
[11:27] <THX-1138> Paddy_EIRE - well it is easier recently synaptic can install it for you.
[11:27] <mbx2112> can anyone help me remove or purge a half-installed .deb of jedit (msg me)
[11:27] <Who_> sethk: only the LED, I think - not the disk :)
[11:27] <sethk> Who_, you are probably correct but I'd check caps lock or num lock anyway.
[11:27] <korba-> sethk: and how about a list of files (locations) of the already installed package
[11:27] <korba-> or maybe i can remove the package
[11:27] <korba-> and compile from source
[11:27] <Who_> sethk: will do - I want to get a bit more info before I crash the system again :)
[11:27] <osfameron> can you get transparent windows in ubuntu gnome?  (without xgl) ?
[11:27] <sethk> korba-, sure, you can uninstall
[11:28] <korba-> but if i ever want to upgrade from pacakges .. i guess chaos right ?
[11:28] <sethk> Who_, ok
[11:28] <guerby> hmmm my dapper just froze completely, no ping, no keyboard/move reaction, any idea of where to look at after reboot?
 nice one, although i only have the ubuntu root partition and linux swap on my drive...will it still work
[11:28] <sethk> korba-, correct.
[11:28] <Who_> sethk: how do i sync my other disks before fscking the bad one so I don't loose data on them
[11:28] <THX-1138> Yes
[11:28] <korba-> sethk: hehe
[11:28] <sethk> korba-, that's not so bad, but if some _other_ package uses this package, then you could get pretty messed up pretty fast
[11:28] <mathieu> guerby: /var/log/syslog
[11:28] <korba-> its snmpd
 k, cool how does it get around the whole ntfs thing
[11:28] <sethk> Who_, I would boot a rescue cd or the live cd and do the fsck from there
[11:29] <sethk> Who_, in general the answer to your question is to umount the others.  that's the most complete file system termination available.
[11:29] <Who_> sethk: okie, sounds sensible. Do you think there is much hope for the data?
 or must i install xp as fat32
[11:29] <korba-> sethk: thats why i want to know where the snmpd package installed the files, so i can overwrite them with the source compilation
[11:29] <Who_> sethk:yea, that's what I've been doing - I thought I might be able to get away without unmounting
[11:29] <guerby> mathieu, thx, any idea for:
[11:29] <guerby> Sep 15 23:23:05 pc1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3
[11:29] <guerby> Sep 15 23:23:08 pc1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
[11:29] <guerby> Sep 15 23:23:12 pc1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7
[11:29] <guerby> Sep 15 23:23:19 pc1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 11
[11:29] <guerby> Sep 15 23:24:25 pc1 syslogd 1.4.1#17ubuntu7: restart.
[11:29] <guerby> (restart is my reboot)
[11:29] <THX-1138> Paddy_EIRE - If you can setup ntfs write in ubuntu it uses ubuntu as a second network machine.  NAT or bridged
[11:30] <mathieu> guerby: that's normal
[11:30] <Who_> sethk: I guess I should report the crash that caused things to go wrong - can you pint me where to look in my logs?
[11:30] <THX-1138> oh NVM - VMWARE creates a disk image file you treat like a normal hard drive
 so it would be difficult to setup as ntfs, as i dont trust the linux ntfs drivers at all
[11:30] <sethk> Who_, you probably would get away with it, but why take the chance?
[11:30] <guerby> I have three eth cards, no cable on eth0, my main (internet) is eth1, I have another lan on eth2
[11:31] <sethk> Who_, _if_ there is anything to find in the logs, then do this (booted after the crash):     ls -ltr /dev/log
[11:31] <sethk> Who_, the last file listed is the file that most recently changed
[11:31] <THX-1138> Paddy_EIRE - the disk image file is formatted as you would a normal disk then you install the second guest OS
[11:31] <sethk> Who_, if there is any useful info it would be in that log.
[11:31] <guerby> mathieu, so no more info to gather?
[11:32] <sethk> Who_, if more than one have the same timestamp, then check all of them.
[11:32] <sethk> guerby, what's the problem you are having?
[11:32] <Who_> sethk: I have booted several times since, but i'll look
k, so its just like having an iso file stored in my ext3 filesystem basically?
[11:32] <THX-1138> The host machine is seen from the guest OS as a second machine on a network
[11:32] <sethk> Who_, odds are it didn't have a chance to log anything anyway.
[11:32] <THX-1138> Exactly, the same
[11:32] <Who_> sethk: looks like it
[11:32] <ISOLATEDViRuS> You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "disks-conf-hdb1".
[11:32] <guerby> sethk, sudden freeze (no mouse no keyboard) no ping from another machine, I had to reboot with the hardware button
[11:33] <ISOLATEDViRuS> help... anyone?
 so net access should not be a problem
[11:33] <Who_> sethk: would running badblocks do anything good?
[11:33] <mythril> does anyone know of a nxclient other than NoMachine's?
[11:33] <Who_> sethk: basically, do you have any idea what to do if tghe caps/num lock keys are gone and it is totally crashed?
[11:33] <sethk> guerby, ok.  and you showed those log messages in case they helped. which they didn't.  now I'm in sync.
[11:33] <sethk> Who_, it can't hurt
[11:33] <guerby> sethk, correct :)
[11:33] <sethk> Who_, again do it from a live cd or rescue cd, because it wouldn't surprise me if it also crashes the system
[11:34] <Who_> sethk: it does crash the system
[11:34] <sethk> guerby, no triggering event?
[11:34] <guerby> sethk, there are indeed plenty of eth0 DHCP before, they fail since there's no cable there
[11:34] <guerby> seth, no, I was typing an email in evolution (which nicely recovered it :)
[11:34] <Who_> sethk: but is there anyway to use the disk without reformatting?
[11:34] <pianoboy3333> What can I use to read an ext3 drive on a mac?
[11:34] <sethk> Who_, use it how?
[11:34] <sdh> pianoboy3333: ssh and a linux box, tee hee.
[11:34] <guerby> sethk,  no, I was typing an email in evolution (which nicely recovered it :)
[11:35] <sethk> Who_, you can't reformat, but even if you could, it wouldn't help.
[11:35] <Who_> sethK: some fsck options that make it be more careful, check in a different way/check kmore deeply
[11:35] <sethk> guerby, what version are you running?
[11:35] <Paddy_EIRE> brb, restart
[11:35] <sethk> guerby, did you upgrade anything recently?
[11:35] <sethk> Who_, indeed, but if a normal fsck crashes the system, so will a more intensive fsck
[11:35] <guerby> sethk, I installed 6.06 a week ago
[11:35] <pianoboy3333> sdh: .... not exactly what I need
[11:35] <THX-1138> Paddy_EIRE - Give it a try. - It is so much easier to use disk images than a disk installation of windows.   - psst someone is going to remind us soon we are in the ubuntu channel and off-topic. - shh
[11:35] <hondje> pianoboy3333: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/
[11:35] <guerby> it is up to date except for the latest kernel
[11:35] <sethk> guerby, and this is the first crash?
[11:36] <AZzKikR> THX-1138, Paddy_EIRE is rebooting .. :p
[11:36] <sethk> guerby, being up to date doesn't guarantee anything.  In fact, it adds uncertainty
[11:36] <guerby> sethk, this is the second one, one happened a few days ago during the night (during my cron tarball backup)
[11:36] <ompaul> THX-1138, why did I wake up?
[11:36] <Who_> sethk: in short - if fsck is crashing, badblocks is crashing then is there any step to try before reformatting and any way to post a bug report?
[11:36] <pianoboy3333> hondje: what will that do?
[11:36] <THX-1138> I know. - We'll wean him away from windows - you just wait.
[11:36] <guerby> sethk, before I was running SuSE 9.3 without problem
[11:37] <pianoboy3333> hondje: and it's a ex3 drive
[11:37] <sethk> guerby, v6 is a bit new for my taste.  My production boxes are still on breezy.
[11:37] <THX-1138> opaul - "Wake Up"? - carpe diem??? - grin
[11:37] <Hybernate> nice there was an easy way
[11:37] <guerby> sethk, my other 6.06 machines don't have the sudden freeze issue (they are x86_64 though, whereas the freeze one is x86)
[11:37] <guerby> sethk, this is home :)
[11:37] <ISOLATEDViRuS> GRRR
[11:37] <dk06> how do u move back and forward in W3M
[11:38] <guerby> sethk, anything to activate to get more info the next time it happens?
[11:38] <sethk> guerby, I recommend using the kernel from kernel.org, rather than the ubuntu kernel.  However, _everyone_ here will disagree with me about that (including, possibly, you.  :)  )
[11:38] <ISOLATEDViRuS> is there a command i can type to let me view the contents of a hdd in a seperate GUI window?
[11:38] <sethk> guerby, you can rebuild the kernel with more logging and more debugging, but in many cases that doesn't help.
[11:38] <hondje> It doesn't matter if it's ext3.
[11:38] <mathieu> sethk: even linus would disagree
[11:38] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, you can point any of the available file manager programs at the root of a disk.
[11:38] <guerby> sethk, ok so I'm kind of stuck. Anything special to know when compiling a kernel for ubuntu?
[11:38] <sethk> mathieu, I don't know about that.  I have fixed several machines that way.
[11:39] <compilerwriter> Hey anyone here have a an idea for a good windows SIP client and server.
[11:39] <sethk> guerby, there are some options.  I can tell you the ones that I have used that might help.
[11:39] <guerby> mathieu, BTW I don't see the changelog for the latest update using the UI update tool, is it normal?
[11:39] <ISOLATEDViRuS> sethk i just got a friend's HDD, and i hooked it into my computer. his mobo is on the fritz so i told him i'd back up the information on the HDDs he gave me, i cant access them!
[11:39] <pianoboy3333> What can I use to read an ext3 drive on a mac?
[11:39] <Who_> sethk: I'm gonna go crash my live CD - thanks very much for the help - any more ideas on what to do if fsck and badblocks continue to fail?
[11:39] <THX-1138> ompaul - sorry to have woken you didn't mean to. though i am still working out how i did.
[11:39] <sethk> mathieu, fixed one that way this afternoon, by the way.
[11:39] <sethk> Who_, this is a hardware problem.
[11:39] <dk06> whats a good command line music player
[11:39] <jbirdAngel> Hello, whats the easiest way to run ubuntu in winows
[11:40] <sethk> Who_, hard to say anything intelligent other than that.
[11:40] <kitche> ISOLATEDViRuS: if it's NTFS you need fuse or ntfs-3g
[11:40] <mathieu> sethk: you could have waited for the fix in ubuntu
[11:40] <dk06> jbirdangel: VMWARE
[11:40] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, is it from a linux box?  from a windows box?
[11:40] <hondje> Once again, pianoboy3333: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsx/
[11:40] <Who_> sethk: thanks - disk still in warranty :)
[11:40] <guerby> mathieu, 2.6.15-26-386
[11:40] <compilerwriter> jbirdAngel the easiest way would be with a live cd
[11:40] <pianoboy3333> hondje: will that work for ext3?
[11:40] <sethk> mathieu, this is work, I can't tolerate machines that hang or crash
[11:40] <compilerwriter> You just pop in the cd and reboot.
[11:40] <pianoboy3333> hondje: ah, I see, you posted up there
[11:40] <pianoboy3333> sorry
[11:40] <pianoboy3333> thank you
[11:40] <dk06> whats a good commandline music player, because i cant aptget mplayer
[11:40] <hondje> You're welcome
[11:40] <dk06> hank you
[11:41] <sethk> dk06, your elcome
[11:41] <hondje> dk06: mpg321 or 123
[11:41] <lupine_85> mplayer does command-line too :)
[11:41] <Who_> dk06, i used mpg123 once upon a time
[11:41] <ISOLATEDViRuS> sethk from a windows box.
[11:41] <treitter> I installed the server minimum 6.06.1 install, and X. Then I installed usplash, but it doesn't show up on boot
[11:41] <dk06> i cant apt-get install mplayer
[11:41] <ISOLATEDViRuS> i just need to copy documents and pictures to CD
[11:41] <treitter> any ideas?
[11:41] <dk06> i get this error
[11:41] <lupine_85> add the ASCII display lplugin and you can watch videos too
[11:41] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, ok, do (as root):   fdisk -l /dev/hdd
[11:41] <jbirdAngel> dk06: vmware costs money right?
[11:41] <kitche> dk06: it's in a different repo that's why
[11:41] <ISOLATEDViRuS> which will?
[11:41] <dk06>  sudo apt-get install mplayer
[11:41] <dk06> Reading package lists... Done
[11:41] <dk06> Building dependency tree... Done
[11:41] <dk06> Package mplayer is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[11:41] <dk06> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[11:41] <dk06> is only available from another source
[11:41] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, see what the partition is (or partitions are).  should tell you whether it is FAT or NTFS
[11:41] <lupine_85> vmware is free, but not Free
[11:42] <jbirdAngel> compilerwriter: would i be able to use the development version of gimp if i run it from a livecd?
[11:42] <ISOLATEDViRuS> k sec
[11:42] <THX-1138> hondje - Is there a page with variables used by XLIB? - I just don't know the magic incantation google hasn't been much help to me
[11:42] <lupine_85> well, the workstation costs; player and server are free
[11:42] <dk06> jbirdangel: u can find VMWARE torrent
[11:42] <compilerwriter> I don't know about that.

[11:42] <jbirdAngel> dk06: is that legal
[11:42] <dk06> im not sure whether its free or not
[11:42] <Paddy_EIRE> how do install windows now that i have vmware-player installed???...when i go to System tools in the apps menu and click it, it asks for a virtual machine to load???
[11:42] <dk06> that depends where u live
[11:42] <hondje> I don't know what XLIB is, THX-1138 :)
[11:42] <Who_> sethk: just remembered somethink perhaps relevant - pc first crashed while disk was being accessed using samba - sound reasonable?
[11:42] <AZzKikR> !pastebin > dk06
[11:43] <sethk> Who_, sounds irrelevant to me.
[11:43] <ISOLATEDViRuS> Windows NTFS
[11:43] <sethk> Who_, at that level, access is access.
[11:43] <jbirdAngel> dk06: okay thank you
[11:43] <dk06> yw
[11:43] <THX-1138> Thats okay i didn't either until this morning. - began playing with visual effects
[11:43] <dk06> so why isnt my mplayer workign
[11:43] <Who_> sethk: okay
[11:43] <dk06> how can i get it to work
[11:43] <dk06> rememeber
[11:43] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, ok, then create a directory to mount it on, say:   mkdir /mnt/ntfs.   then mount it as follows:   mount -r -t ntfs /dev/hdd1 /mnt/ntfs
[11:43] <dk06> i have nox
[11:43] <compilerwriter> lupine_85 you are here.  Thank God.
[11:43] <dk06> so i have to do this in console
[11:43] <william_> Doe ubuntu include pine?
[11:43] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, both commands as root
 how do install windows now that vmware is installed?
[11:43] <william_> Does*
[11:44] <guerby> dk06, launch system / administration  / synaptic then setting / repository then 6.06 LTS binary, click on edit and check everything
[11:44] <treitter> ah - I figured out my problem. It's a bug, and I'm about to file it :)
[11:44] <Who_> sethk: thanks and bye
[11:44] <lupine_85> compilerwriter: doubt s/he had much to do with it, but go ahead ;)
[11:44] <sethk> william_, it's available.  don't know what you mean by "include".  it's probably not part of the default list of packages to install, but that makes no difference.
[11:44] <william_> Is there a place where I can see all the precompiled software for ubuntu
[11:44] <compilerwriter> I have gotten ekiga to work.  Now i need to work on the windows client and server.
[11:44] <jbirdAngel> compilerwriter:  okay thank you
[11:44] <momo> anyone feels like holding a newbies  hand for a about 10 mins
[11:44] <william_> That is what I meant by included yah.
[11:44] <THX-1138> Paddy_EIRE - a vmware channel would be a better place to ask. -i just stumbled through until it worked.

[11:48] <momo> thanks
[11:48] <william_> I didn't see pine in the text search list :(
[11:48] <cwatson> sure
[11:48] <hondje> william_: I'm not sure pine is in the repos, it has a weird license...and naturally same with pico
[11:49] <william_> I've been trying to compile it on my opensuse and it's being lame :(
[11:49] <eyequeue> william_, mutt is much better, and if you like pine, you'll find the transition easy
[11:49] <william_> mutt is a bit more complex though
[11:49] <eyequeue> william_, nano rather than pico, in the same vein
[11:50] <Kronoz> hi, how do i change the default blue earth firefox icon to the offical fox wrapped round world icon?
[11:50] <william_> I was thinking about trying mutt tho; the user guide on the site is lacking.
[11:50] <eyequeue> william_, yeah if you read the docs for mutt you'll get lost, it has "too many" features but the basics are okat
[11:50] <eyequeue> william_, lynx /usr/share/doc/mutt/ after installing it :)
[11:50] <william_> It's not too complicated I should say, there is just so much crap. :(
[11:51] <Blinker> whats the terminal command to make a directory?
[11:51] <bbrazil> mkdir
[11:51] <william_> mkdir
[11:51] <eyequeue> Kronoz, d/l the other from somewhere, then overwrite the icon file that you dislike with it

[11:52] <eyequeue> william_, i look at it as, learn what you need today, then learn one new thing once a week, or whatever ;0
[11:52] <sethk> Storkme, a chroot only applies to the shell that is started when you run chroot.
[11:52] <Storkme> seth, i mean remove the setup
[11:52] <ISOLATEDViRuS> sethk : You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "ntfs".
[11:52] <sethk> Storkme, don't know what you mean.
[11:53] <william_> hehe
[11:53] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, you can view them as root, or...
[11:53] <ISOLATEDViRuS> dude
[11:53] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, you can use the UID= mount option to make them readable by you
[11:53] <william_> Yeah also pine seems to have too many vulernabilities :(
[11:53] <ISOLATEDViRuS> ;_;
[11:53] <Storkme> sethk, well i have a /chroot dir and when i do df -h it lists my hdd partitions twice
[11:53] <ISOLATEDViRuS> how do i log in as the root?
[11:53] <william_> su
[11:53] <ISOLATEDViRuS> su, not sudo?
[11:53] <sethk> Storkme, that's not a mount, just a chroot
[11:53] <sethk> Storkme, umount it
[11:53] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, either way
[11:53] <ISOLATEDViRuS> -_>
[11:54] <william_> Yeah they are pretty similar
[11:54] <hondje> sudo -s

[11:54] <lupine_85> bah, that's not what I want
[11:54] <ISOLATEDViRuS> isolatedvirus@ubuntuvirus:/mnt$ su
[11:54] <ISOLATEDViRuS> Password:
[11:54] <ISOLATEDViRuS> su: Authentication failure
[11:54] <ISOLATEDViRuS> Sorry.
[11:54] <salim> libc6 is red in synaptic
[11:54] <Storkme> sethk, umount: /chroot: not mounted
[11:54] <kitche> cwatson: ummm sudo passwd changes password
[11:54] <ISOLATEDViRuS> grrrr
[11:55] <sethk> Storkme, first you tell me it is mounted, then you tell me it isn't.  so start again.
[11:55] <lupine_85> anyone know what the git version management package is called?
[11:55] <SillyZ> try sudo passwd root ISOLATEDViRuS
[11:55] <SillyZ> then reset it
[11:55] <kitche> lupine_85: git
[11:55] <salim> I cant install anything
[11:55] <salim> nothing
[11:55] <salim> what happened
[11:55] <salim> s.b. help
[11:55] <salim> please
[11:55] <ompaul> ISOLATEDViRuS, please mind your language thanks: sudo command
[11:55] <sethk> Storkme, back to my first answer
[11:55] <ISOLATEDViRuS> sudo ******* root ?
[11:55] <kitche> IAOLATEDViRuS: use sudo
[11:55] <Agrajag> if you just want a root shell, run sudo -s
[11:55] <sethk> Storkme, exit out of the shell that did the chroot
[11:55] <SillyZ> sudo passwd root
[11:55] <SillyZ> try that ISOLATEDViRuS
[11:55] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, just start the file manager with sudo
[11:56] <ompaul> !sudo > ISOLATEDViRuS
[11:56] <cwatson> ISOLATEDViRuS: you have to run "sudo passwd" before su will work
[11:56] <sethk> SillyZ, sudo passwd  is the same as sudo passwd root
[11:56] <lupine_85> kitche: git is the "GNU interactive tools"...
[11:56] <krazykit> lupine_85: i thought it was just git
[11:56] <kitche> cwatson: you mean sudo passwd root
[11:56] <SillyZ> then use the password for your "user" which should be the same password for root
[11:56] <salim> ubuntu support sucks
[11:56] <salim> nobody is here to help me
is it not gksudo that the filemanager must be started with??
[11:56] <ISOLATEDViRuS> ok thanks.
[11:56] <kitche> lupine_85: well the thing that you want is called git as well
[11:56] <salim> and my system is going to die
[11:56] <lupine_85> this particular ubuntu support is free
[11:56] <salim> *cries*
[11:56] <mbx2112> can someone help me a half-installed .deb package? (msg me)
[11:56] <william_> lol
[11:56] <william_> it's free can't bitch :P
[11:56] <SillyZ> whats the problem salim?
[11:56] <sethk> salim, might have something to do with the fact that you haven't asked a question
[11:56] <lupine_85> buy a support contract if it's that important to you
[11:56] <Agrajag> salim: you haven't given any details or asked any actual questions
[11:57] <salim> I asked a question: can s.b. help me
[11:57] <salim> lol
[11:57] <Agrajag> all you have said is "nothing will install pelase help"
[11:57] <SillyZ> and Im from the old school so sudo passwd root ... is proper syntax
[11:57] <william_> Just ask ur question :(
[11:57] <salim> I dont know enough to ask a particular question
[11:57] <Agrajag> salim: that's not a question. Don't ask to ask.
[11:57] <SillyZ> salim: join #sillyz
[11:57] <SillyZ> ill try and help ya there
[11:57] <salim> I just know that libc6 is red in synaptic, and now I cant install anything, it says it's broken
[11:57] <salim> what can I do
[11:57] <krazykit> lupine_85: i think it's in universe
[11:57] <sethk> SillyZ, no, it isn't.  think about it for a moment.  sudo makes you run the command with the effective user id of root.  passwd, by itself with no arguments, changes the password of the effective user id
[11:58] <william_> backup reinstall!
[11:58] <mwe> sudo -i works just like su -
[11:58] <krazykit> lupine_85: i think you want cogito
[11:58] <salim> I wanted to install anjuta, and now nothing works
[11:58] <ompaul> ISOLATEDViRuS, read the page the bot threw at you I think you will find it useful cheers
[11:58] <sethk> SillyZ, the only time you use a username with passwd is to change someone _else's_ password
[11:58] <lupine_85> !cogito
[11:58] <ubotu> cogito: version control system. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.16.3-1 (dapper), package size 125 kB, installed size 760 kB
[11:58] <TheGateKeeper_> salim: will it let you remove it?
[11:58] <fowlduck-> test
[11:58] <hondje> just use sudo -s .... id shows it's 'real' root, as much as one needs
[11:58] <kitche> lupine_85: cogito is an overlay of git
[11:58] <mbx2112> "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal."
[11:58] <sethk> ISOLATEDViRuS, I already told you three times two ways to solve your problem.  go do it.
[11:58] <SillyZ> sethk although previously sudo passwd, did not change the root password in older versions of sudo
[11:58] <lupine_85> thanks :)
[11:58] <sethk> SillyZ, no, not true
[11:59] <theBeno> Hey guys, what's the easiest way to install XP as a virtual machine on Ubuntu?
[11:59] <sethk> SillyZ, when the passwd program is run, it does not know it was started by sudo
[11:59] <lupine_85> vmware
[11:59] <lupine_85> ah, "git-core"
[11:59] <lupine_85> d'uj
[11:59] <sethk> SillyZ, all it knows is it's effective user id.
[11:59] <Agrajag> theBeno: vmware server
[11:59] <mwe> sudo -i is recommended over sudo -s as it sets the environment properly for root
[11:59] <theBeno> Agrajag, is it easy to install?  Is it in the repos?
[11:59] <sethk> it's so dumb to say su is bad and then tell people to do sudo -i or sudo -s
[12:00] <klausos> what do i need to install to do "./configure" command without getting errors?????
[12:00] <Agrajag> theBeno: no, it's not Free software, though it doesn't cost anything
[12:00] <hondje> throws me off
[12:00] <Agrajag> theBeno: you can download it at vmware.com, you'll need to register (also free, you can give fake info) for a key.
[12:00] <cwatson> theBeno: VMWare server and workstation both cost money
[12:00] <sethk> klausos, depends entirely on what errors you are getting
[12:00] <hondje> then again, all these different prompts throw me off too
[12:00] <Agrajag> sethk: no
[12:00] <BigToe> night internet :*
[12:00] <sethk> klausos, post your errors on the paste web site
[12:00] <Agrajag> sethk: VMWare server is free.
[12:00] <Agrajag> sethk: always has been
[12:00] <sethk> Agrajag, I didn't say anything about vmware
[12:00] <kitche> cwatson: umm vmware server doesn't cost anything should get your facts straight
[12:00] <Agrajag> sethk: GSX server was not.
[12:00] <Agrajag> oh sorry
