[12:01] <erUSUL> tamacracker: System>Admin>Gparted System>Admin>Disks (sudo pat-get install gparted if you do not have it instaled or use synaptic)
[12:01] <Wulong> What should /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager be set to?
[12:01] <Arrick> hey, where can some one post screenshots to nowdays?
[12:01] <kitche> tamacracker: ok well that is mounted then
[12:01] <kitche> so you don't have to format it
[12:01] <bruenig> Arrick, photobucket perhaps
[12:02] <tamacracker> kitche ok... soooo how do i get my drive to work.. cuz all my mp3s and movie folder is gone
[12:02] <Volvo> how to change the icon size visible on desktop ?
[12:02] <Arrick> !photobucket
[12:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about photobucket - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:02] <tamacracker> kitche this is what i get: could not show file:///media/illriginal/My%20Downloads'
[12:02] <Arrick> bruenig wlink?
[12:02] <Arrick> link?
[12:03] <ikonia> why does ubuntu put vmlinuz and initrd in / as well as /boot
[12:03] <ace> hey guys jsut wanted to say thanks it worked
[12:03] <XiXaQ> does anyone know of a CLI version of Systemmonitor?  That is, an application that displays memory usage per process, cpu load, etc...
[12:03] <ikonia> really makes the root file system scrappy
[12:03] <bruenig> Arrick, you are just looking for a place to host your screenshot right?
[12:03] <kitche> tamacracker: well if you reformated it for linux then you lost everything that was on there because that seems like a Windows format
[12:03] <erUSUL> XiXaQ: top
[12:03] <bruenig> I don't want to misunderstand
[12:03] <tamacracker> kiche ... I NEVER formatted it... EVER it's just missing.
[12:03] <Arrick> yes
[12:03] <ace> and i have one mroe question for you guys
[12:03] <mon^rch> how do I get rid of the "lock" icon on the folders for my ntfs drives, anyone???
[12:03] <Arrick> bruenig yes
[12:03] <ace> about switching to KDE
[12:03] <XiXaQ> erUSUL, pardon?
[12:03] <bruenig> http://photobucket.com/, you have to register for a free account
[12:04] <Red-Sox> Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can transform ubuntu into kubuntu by just doing "Sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop"
[12:04] <ace> will all my settings like resolution stay the same if i switch to KDE?
[12:04] <Newbi8> Hello!How do I get the movieplayer to play mpg????
[12:04] <Red-Sox> ?
[12:04] <lupine_85> tamacracker: is the partition mounted?
[12:04] <tamacracker> kitche i used a program to mount my windows drive onto my linux operating system
[12:04] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: What player have you been trying to use?
[12:04] <bruenig> Red-Sox, you are wrong
[12:04] <erUSUL> XiXaQ: top is *the* cli system monitor
[12:04] <tamacracker> kitche i was using that drive for music and movies.... now it's gone.
[12:04] <Red-Sox> bruenig: Okay
[12:04] <erUSUL> XiXaQ: man top
[12:04] <Red-Sox> bruenig: how so?
[12:04] <moreati> hi all, has anyone played with Edgy on an Intel G965 video adaptor. Did agpgart/DRI/GLX work for you?
[12:04] <lupine_85> Red-Sox: close, but no banana ;)
[12:04] <erUSUL> !edgy
[12:04] <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
[12:04] <tamacracker> i dont know how to check if the partition is mounted
[12:04] <bruenig> Red-Sox, you need to do sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, then you need to remove all of your ubuntu components
[12:04] <Newbi8> Red-sox: the one that came with ubuntu..
[12:04] <kitche> tamacracker: ah ok so it's NTFS
[12:05] <lupine_85> you'll have all of ubuntu's stuff, and all of kubuntu's stuff as well
[12:05] <Red-Sox> bruenig: But I like my ubuntu components
[12:05] <ace> oo ok
[12:05] <Paddy_EIRE> does anyone here have any experience with setting up newsgroups
[12:05] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: Totem?
[12:05] <ace> will my resolution change if i switch to KDE?
[12:05] <lupine_85> !inn2
[12:05] <ubotu> inn2: 'InterNetNews' news server. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.4.2-3ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 2949 kB, installed size 7104 kB
[12:05] <Red-Sox> :P
[12:05] <moreati> erUSUL: sorry, thanks
[12:05] <lupine_85> PITA to use though
[12:05] <bruenig> Red-Sox, right, but you won't be going from ubuntu to kubuntu, because you will have an option to boot into either. You will just be adding kubuntu on top of ubuntu.
[12:05] <Newbi8> Red-sox: Yes!:)
[12:05] <kitche> !ntfs-3g > tamacracker
[12:05] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: sudo apt-get install vlc
[12:06] <ace> hey guys if i install the kubuntu thing yall are talking about will it affect my resolution?
[12:06] <Red-Sox> bruenig: Right, but KDE is still the same and everything, correct?
[12:06] <Newbi8> Red-sox: That's it??Thanks!
[12:06] <tamacracker> kitche huh?
[12:06] <bruenig> ace, no
[12:06] <skaos> !codec
[12:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:06] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: well
[12:06] <lupine_85> erm, kubuntu alongside ubuntu ;)
[12:06] <bruenig> Red-Sox, it is different. It has different applications and has a different interface.
[12:06] <ace> bruenig: thnaks so i wont have any worrys if i use that apt-get thingy?
[12:06] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: then open VLC and then go File>Open File and choose the file
[12:06] <no0tic> what iptables frontend do you advise me?
[12:06] <Flannel> !firestarter
[12:07] <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)
[12:07] <bruenig> Red-Sox, if you just want to 'look' of kde but want all your gnome apps, I think there is a package called kde-core
[12:07] <skaos> !restricted
[12:07] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[12:07] <Red-Sox> bruenig: Is there a package in that actually DOES transform it?
[12:07] <Newbi8> Red-sox: VLC?
[12:07] <pennypacker> !firestarter
[12:07] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: yeah, it's video lan
[12:07] <kitche> tamacracker: ntfs is Xp's filesystem it doesn't have good support in linux
[12:07] <rayston> how do I figure out what is wrong with my HD that suddenly is unavailable?
[12:07] <rayston> what tools are available to me?
[12:07] <Abst> Does anyone know why since I install these nvidia drivers the text at Login and in TCL programs is really small
[12:07] <Rickman> I just tar'ed a file into a wrong folder destination on my linux box.  How can I move the folder?
[12:07] <Jaak> is there a flash 9 beta somewhere?
[12:07] <XiXaQ> erUSUL, that's great! Thanks alot. :)
[12:08] <bruenig> rayston, you have tried mounting it
[12:08] <janbanan> Does anyone know what version of crossover office i should use? debian, xandros linux, loki, or mandriva?
[12:08] <tat> try debian
[12:08] <bruenig> Jaak, I didn't think they had released it yet. Perhaps if it were a windows build, it might leak on to a p2p but I haven't seen it anywhere
[12:08] <tamacracker> kitche so basically i just fucked myself with ubuntu and lost over 100 gigs of mp3s and movies... right?
[12:08] <mon^rch> debian
[12:08] <no0tic> Flannel, something more accurate, afaik firestarter doesn't make difference between tcp & udp packets...
[12:08] <pennypacker> just use fedora
[12:08] <Newbi8> Red-sox: I'm new to the Os so could u explain that once more?
[12:08] <bruenig> Newbi8, what is it you are trying to do?
[12:08] <kitche> tamacracker: yes if you whiped out that information when you installed ubuntu
[12:08] <rayston> bruenig : how do I do that? it shows up in the disks tool, but it isnt enabled (the browse button is greyed out) and clicking enable has no affect
[12:09] <Jaak> i mean flash 9 player...
[12:09] <Jaak> is maya 7 the latest distro for linux?
[12:09] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: okay, open up the terminal
[12:09] <bruenig> rayston, what is the name of the hard drive
[12:09] <bruenig> Jaak, 7 is the latest
[12:09] <birdfish> What command would I issue in order to find out if a certain program is installed on the system?
[12:09] <rayston> hdc1
[12:09] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: if you're in gnome, it's Apps > Accessories > Terminal
[12:09] <kitche> Jaa: maya 7 isn't a distro it's a program
[12:09] <Newbi8> Red-sox:It's open and I've run the command u said..:O)
[12:09] <rayston> bruenig : hdc1
[12:09] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: did it install?
[12:10] <Red-Sox> Newbi8:
[12:10] <Red-Sox> can I PM you?
[12:10] <Newbi8> Red-sox: It's still installing
[12:10] <no0tic> pennypacker, do you speak with me?
[12:10] <tamacracker> kitche if I whipped what information? I installed Ubuntu, downloaded and installed a program that will mount my NTFS drive and it was working fine... now all of a sudden everything is missing.
[12:10] <Arrick> I have setup a default Ubuntu Breezy installation, and I have a phillips cdrw800 that the system recognizes. When i put a disc in the drive, the drive will read the discs, but if I right click on the cd-rom icon, and click on copy disc I get the following error>>>> will post paste in a moment
[12:10] <Arrick> http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/9162/screenshotxc5.png
[12:10] <bruenig> rayston, ok open up a terminal and do this first make the directory where you are going to mount it "mkdir whatever" then try mounting it in that directory "sudo mount /dev/hdc1 ~/whatever"
[12:10] <kitche> tamacracker: well ok what hard drive is your NTFS on? sicne that what I was asking the whole time
[12:11] <pennypacker> i was noit aware
[12:11] <tamacracker> kitche yes it's a NTFS hard drive that I mounted with some program for ubuntu to access the files.
[12:11] <kitche> tamacracker: yes but what is the partiton number lika hda1-9 or hdb2-9?
[12:12] <Red-Sox> CRAP
[12:12] <tamacracker> i dont even know anymore ubuntu has me pissed off and i forgot everything at this point
[12:12] <Jaak> bruenig, thanks for the info
[12:12] <Red-Sox> I installed ubuntu on the wrong partition!!!!!!!!!
[12:12] <robbbb> anyone use enlightenment DR17?
[12:12] <Newbi8> Red-sox: Still here?
[12:12] <tamacracker> kitche i dont even know anymore ubuntu has me pissed off and i forgot everything at this point
[12:12] <kitche> tamacracker: since you have to mount each time you want to use that hard drive unless you have it in /etc/fstab
[12:12] <Red-Sox> Okay, okay, so I had two blank partitions, 4GB and 15GB, and I installed it on the 15, anyway to merge or move over?
[12:12] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: yea
[12:12] <bruenig> tamacracker, it is always suggested that you backup
[12:13] <Red-Sox> oops
[12:13] <Red-Sox> I installed it on the 4GB****
[12:13] <bruenig> rayston, did that work or what?
[12:13] <fdsd> what app allows me to use a cursor in the console?
[12:13] <Newbi8> Red-sox: What do I do now?It's completed the install..
[12:13] <tamacracker> kitche every time i restart my machine and log onto ubuntu i dont have to do anything, i can click my ntfs hard drive at anytime i want...
[12:13] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: okay, go to apps > sound and video > VLC
[12:13] <tamacracker> kitche now i click it..... and all my files are missing
[12:14] <bruenig> tamacracker, are you sure it is mounted?
[12:14] <rayston> bruenig : it says : mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[12:14] <Newbi8> Red-sox: I'm there..
[12:14] <bruenig> rayston, what is the file system type? is it ext3 ntfs fat32 or what
[12:14] <pennypacker> fat32 = vfat
[12:14] <rayston> bruenig : the type should be ext3
[12:14] <kitche> bruenig: it's not mounted fromw hat I seen and tamacracker forgot the partition number for it
[12:15] <robbbb> anyone use enlightenment?
[12:15] <Paddy_EIRE> does anyone here use pan as a newsreader, if so I am a newbie to this and would like to know how to set it up so I can get started
[12:15] <tamacracker> kitche how do i see all my drives/partitions so I can tell you
[12:15] <pennypacker> fdisk
[12:15] <fdsd> hey guys, what app allows me to use a cursor in the console?
[12:15] <bruenig> rayston, do sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc1 ~/whatever
[12:15] <rayston> and the whatever part is the directory I want to mount it in? right?
[12:15] <kitche> tamacracker: either fdisk -l /dev/<harddrive>
[12:16] <bruenig> tamacracker, System>Administration>Disks
[12:16] <bruenig> tamacracker, what kitche said too, you seem like the graphical type though
[12:16] <kitche> bruenig: yeah I forgot the graphical part of it that's why my thing just dropped off :P
[12:16] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: File
[12:16] <Red-Sox> Newbi8: Open, and select the file
[12:17] <tamacracker> kitche ok it's /dev/hda
[12:17] <bruenig> that is not a partition number
[12:17] <Newbi8> Red-sox: Jupp..But can I make this my default player by any chance!Thanks a whole bunch btw
[12:17] <rayston> bruenig : wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock
[12:17] <rayston> so, is my superblock bad?
[12:17] <tamacracker> partition 1
[12:18] <rayston> bruenig : so, is my superblock bad?
[12:18] <kitche> tamacracker: ok try this mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 in a console
[12:18] <bruenig> rayston looks like the drive is corrupted
[12:18] <rayston> bruenig : does that mean its unsaveable?
[12:19] <tamacracker> kitche
[12:19] <tamacracker> kitche what's the point of this?
[12:19] <bruenig> rayston, here is where my knowledge stops
[12:19] <fdsd> hey guys, How do I add gpm to the startup of ubuntu?
[12:19] <bruenig> fdsd, what is gpm?
[12:19] <tamacracker> kitche it's just showed me  different commands to type
[12:20] <fdsd> bruenig, yes
[12:20] <kitche> tamacracker: it's suppose to mount your ntfs hard drive
[12:20] <bruenig> kitche, it needs to have a mount point
[12:20] <Spy> anyone can help me please ? ... Since i installed Ubuntu on my HDD, my USB Cable Modem don't work but worked with Live CD.
[12:20] <bruenig> fdsd, no what is it, like is it a program or what?
[12:20] <kitche> bruenig: yeah forgot lol
[12:20] <rayston> bruenig : thanx for the help so far
[12:20] <pennypacker> u need to specify a dir to mount it
[12:20] <fdsd> bruenig, it adds the cursor to console
[12:20] <tamacracker> can someone please help me remount my drive so that i can get all my folders/files back
[12:21] <kitche> tamacracker: ok mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows
[12:21] <kitche> tamacracker: make sure that /mnt/windows is made though
[12:21] <bruenig> fdsd, ok, well if you want it to launch whenever gnome starts, when you login, which seems a reasonable time to have it launch, just go to System>Preferences>Sessions, then click the startup commands tab and add it
[12:21] <pennypacker> mount -t vfat /dev/x /mnt/windows/c uid=user
[12:21] <lupine_85> sudo...
[12:21] <bruenig> fdsd, correction it says startup programs
[12:21] <kitche> pennypacker: umm it's ntfs not fat32
[12:21] <tamacracker> kitche the name of the hardrive is illriginal
[12:22] <pennypacker> ntfs then
[12:22] <fdsd> bruenig, I have no gui on this machine
[12:22] <com4> if i run type(object.method), it'l give me <type 'instancemethod'>. How would i check to see if object.method was instancemethod in an if block?
[12:22] <bruenig> fdsd, ah, um, could you add a script in /etc/init.d/
[12:22] <JoshIRL> riiight
[12:22] <pennypacker> for raid  use /sbin dmraid -ay
[12:22] <odyssevs> Anyone know whether this piece of hardware will be recognised by Ubuntu? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Brand-New-PCI-Bus-to-PCMCIA-Cardbus-Adapter-UK-Seller_W0QQitemZ230034593507QQihZ013QQcategoryZ101206QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
[12:22] <JoshIRL> So, i reconfig the xserver, do i have to, if i do have to, how do i save..?
[12:23] <com4> oh, totally the wrong channel :D
[12:23] <fdsd> bruenig, then make a sym link to /etc/rc2.d/ ?
[12:23] <tamacracker> kitche it's saying there's only 14GB
[12:23] <tamacracker> kitche the hard drive is 150gb
[12:23] <kitche> tamacracker: how much was it using up?
[12:23] <bruenig> fdsd, perhaps a sym link would work or maybe a simple script that just launches the program
[12:23] <moreati> How do I display the changelog of the installed kernel package?
[12:24] <kitche> tamacracker: before it disappeared?
[12:24] <JoshIRL> After reconfig'ing or setting up the xserver by doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, do i have to save somehow? Or can i just hit the power and reboot?
[12:24] <tamacracker> kitche i dunno man i had over 60 albums of MP3s and like 10 videos
[12:24] <jrib> is there anything like 'svntar'?  Basically, just to grab the contents of an svn repository and tar it up
[12:24] <bruenig> JoshIRL, after reconfiguring it should be good
[12:24] <JoshIRL> Strange.
[12:24] <JoshIRL> I did that, config'd the xserver, it's still saying it can't find the xserver, or it might be configd wrong.
[12:25] <tamacracker> kitche let me restart my machine to see if windows still runs and works and has all my MP3s, ok?
[12:25] <bruenig> JoshIRL, you tried startx
[12:25] <bruenig> ?
[12:25] <JoshIRL> during the first install it didn't give me ANYTHING about xserver, i had to go back and do it with that code. ;(
[12:25] <JoshIRL> startx?
[12:25] <bruenig> yeah, after you reconfigured, did you try startx?
[12:25] <thanatonaute> How do I patch a diff to an Alsa source??
[12:25] <JoshIRL> what's startx? Lol
[12:25] <JoshIRL> I'm a linux/unix noob
[12:25] <bruenig> startx is a command that well starts x
[12:26] <Rickman> I need help installing phpmyadmin on my linux server
[12:26] <JoshIRL> Oh. :|
[12:26] <Rickman> can someone help me with this?
[12:26] <JoshIRL> What's that command?
[12:26] <hetauma> any1 got any idea why wine is "lost" from edgy's repositories?
[12:26] <bruenig> startx
[12:26] <JoshIRL> Lol, i'mma reboot and try this then, brb.
[12:26] <Rickman> I'm trying to use apt-get install phpmyadmin, and linux reports back that it can't find the package
[12:27] <thanatonaute> I tried:$ patch < hda-generic-hp-fix.diff but it doesn't seem to work :(
[12:27] <bruenig> !info phypmyadmin
[12:27] <ubotu> Package phypmyadmin does not exist in any distro I know
[12:27] <axee> when installing ubuntu, should the swap area's bootable flag be on or off?
[12:27] <bruenig> !info phypmyadmin
[12:27] <bruenig> !info phpmyadmin
[12:27] <ubotu> phpmyadmin: set of PHP-scripts to administrate MySQL over the WWW. In component universe, is extra. Version 4:2.8.0.3-1 (dapper), package size 3516 kB, installed size 13724 kB
[12:28] <bruenig> Rickman, have you enabled the universe repository?
[12:28] <Rickman> bruenig....uh... I guess not.  how do I do that?
[12:28] <bruenig> Rickman, have you ever edited the /etc/apt/sources.list or is the original when you installed?
[12:28] <thanatonaute> Can someone help me how to apply patch for a diff?thanks
[12:29] <Rickman> bruenig, nope, it's the default
[12:29] <Rickman> bruenig, I'm looking at that file now
[12:29] <bruenig> Rickman, oh, did you open it with gedit or vim or nano or what?
[12:30] <Rickman> bruenig, nano
[12:30] <bruenig> Rickman, ok well make sure you do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list so you can write to it. Once in it whenever you see a "# deb blah blah blah" delete the #
[12:31] <bruenig> Rickman, but only when you see the # followed by a deb, anywhere else you do it, where there isn't a deb well mess it up because those are supposed to be commented out
[12:31] <Rickman> bruenig, there are about six of them.  is this safe?
[12:31] <BlueLaguna> "Package csm is not available, but is referred to by another package."

[12:32] <thanatonaute> Can someone please help with using patch?
[12:32] <bruenig> Rickman, if you just want the universe you could just do it to these lines, but most prefer to have all of them deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper universe
[12:33] <Rickman> bruenig, ok, done.  do I have to reboot my linux box now?
[12:33] <JoshIRL> grrrr

[12:33] <bruenig> jman_, #ubuntu-xgl
[12:33] <JoshIRL> Bruenig, I did the startx, a bunch of text flew by, and at the bottom there was some stuff like Fatal server error, caught signal 4, server abortion.
[12:34] <JoshIRL> and a bunch of 'couldnt find symbol' something or others. :(
[12:34] <bruenig> JoshIRL, I am going to say that is probably not good. Must not have configured it properly.
[12:34] <JoshIRL> Yeah, i did. :\
[12:34] <Rickman> bruenig, thank you SOOOOO much! that did the trick!
[12:34] <bruenig> np
[12:35] <JoshIRL> Silly silly ubuntu
[12:35] <JoshIRL> any other tricks up your sleve that i could steal bruenig?
[12:36] <bruenig> JoshIRL, I never had any problems with x or sound or networking or the like, they just all worked. So I have no experience troubleshooting those areas except some of the obvios stuff I have seen
[12:36] <JoshIRL> Alright. :s
[12:36] <JoshIRL> That stinks, i wanted to use ubuntu, i've heard nothing but good about it lol
[12:36] <Admiral_Chicago> JoshIRL, try this
[12:37] <thanatonaute> Ah, I tried reading man page for patch, but i am still getting error messages.
[12:37] <Admiral_Chicago> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:37] <Admiral_Chicago> just make sure to use the default options.
[12:37] <JoshIRL> I've done it.
[12:37] <JoshIRL> Atleast 5 times. =P
[12:38] <Admiral_Chicago> hmm, hold on a sec
[12:38] <JoshIRL> Alright.
[12:38] <mephux> hey can i use apt-get to install pixel?
[12:38] <tsukasa> hi
[12:38] <JoshIRL> Is my problem maybe because of an older version of ubuntu? I'm installing v5.10
[12:38] <JoshIRL> What's the most recent ubuntu?
[12:39] <Subhuman> JoshIRL, dapper drake.
[12:39] <tsukasa> 6.06
[12:39] <bruenig> JoshIRL, dapper 6.06 is the last release, edgy 6.10 is in beta
[12:39] <LilRayRay> Hi all, could someone help me out with some Hardware problems?
[12:39] <Sktisangry> I think this is possibly the worst idea I could have ever had.
[12:39] <JoshIRL> Drapper drake?
[12:39] <Subhuman> which is 6.06
[12:39] <JoshIRL> :S
[12:39] <JoshIRL> Can i download it somewhere?
[12:39] <bruenig> mephux, what is pixel?
[12:39] <JoshIRL> maybe the install would go smoother?
[12:39] <Subhuman> www.ubuntu.org
[12:39] <Subhuman> !install
[12:39] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[12:39] <mephux> pixel is like gimp..
[12:39] <mephux> but only it doesnt suck
[12:39] <Subhuman> !dapper
[12:39] <ubotu> dapper is the 4th and latest release of Ubuntu. Version 6.06 LTS, codename "Dapper Drake"
[12:39] <mephux> lol
[12:39] <jrib> is there anything like 'svntar'?  Basically, just to grab the contents of an svn repository and tar it up (without creating a temp directory and tarring that)
[12:39] <bruenig> mephux, all I see is pixelize
[12:40] <mephux> hhm
[12:40] <bruenig> !info pixelize
[12:40] <ubotu> pixelize: Create an image consisting of many small images. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.2-2ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 27 kB, installed size 136 kB
[12:40] <tsukasa> pixel is not free software
[12:40] <tsukasa> therefore you won't find it in the repositories
[12:40] <jrib> pixelize sounds neat
[12:40] <LilRayRay> I am having problems installing an ATI driver, if someone could be of assistence that would be great
[12:40] <bruenig> jrib, 136 kb, command line, probably sucks
[12:40] <Admiral_Chicago> JoshIRL, yes that is an old version
[12:40] <mephux> i tried to dpkg it but i'm missing a depend.. and i don't know which one
[12:40] <JoshIRL> Should i get a more recent?
[12:41] <mephux> http://www.kanzelsberger.com/pixel/?page_id=12
[12:41] <JoshIRL> Perhaps the install would be less faulty, as this one has proven to be :P
[12:41] <mephux> thats the site if you intrested..
[12:41] <mephux> good program
[12:41] <Admiral_Chicago> JoshIRL, do a sudo apt-get update and a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:41] <bruenig> mephux, oh yeah it costs money, it wouldn't be in the repos
[12:41] <JoshIRL> Uh
[12:41] <JoshIRL> hangon lemme jot and reboot and try lol
[12:41] <mephux> damn
[12:41] <Admiral_Chicago> then edit your sources.list by typing sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:42] <JoshIRL> o.o
[12:42] <mephux> bruenig, thatnk you for your help
[12:42] <Admiral_Chicago> replace everything that says breezy with dapper
[12:42] <Admiral_Chicago> also, you might want to install bitchx, its a command line IRC client
[12:42] <LilRayRay> anyone here suscessfull with installing ATI drivers?
[12:42] <bruenig> !language
[12:42] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:43] <bruenig> !ati
[12:43] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:43] <LilRayRay> alright thanks
[12:44] <JoshIRL> hmm
[12:44] <JoshIRL> Ok admiral i think i got it all
[12:45] <JoshIRL> So go in, sudo apt-get update then sude apt-get dist-upgrade, then sude nano /etc/apt/sources.list and change breezy to drapper?
[12:45] <JoshIRL> If i understood that right :x
[12:45] <mon^rch> edit the file first
[12:45] <Dr_willis> hmm.. after changeing - you then need to do the dist-upgrade, or the other command.. :)
[12:46] <JoshIRL> sudo nano nano /etc/apt/sources.list firs tthen? O.o
[12:46] <Admiral_Chicago> bruenig, maybe you're not familiar with the program

[12:47] <mon^rch> amazing so many install probs (NEVER had ONE)
[12:47] <Rickman> bruenig, when I try to login to my newly installed mysql, using "udo mysql -u root" I get error 1045 (28000): acess denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password:no)...any ideas how I fix this?
[12:48] <Admiral_Chicago> whatever man don't flood the channel
[12:48] <bruenig> Rickman, no idea
[12:48] <Rickman> bummer
[12:48] <Rickman> anyone here an expert in installing mysql?
[12:48] <Admiral_Chicago> Rickman, how are you root?
[12:48] <Mik3> rickman: can you try sudo mysql -u root -p? i think i had to use the -p flag to access it
[12:49] <esc2> hi
[12:49] <Mik3> then enter the mysql password
[12:49] <Rickman> let me try
[12:49] <esc2> i have a problem with my printer
[12:49] <gandolfthewizard> hello all
[12:49] <esc2> everytime
[12:49] <Admiral_Chicago> esc2, what is the problem
[12:49] <ugarit> any  successful opengl users here?
[12:49] <esc2> i restart the box i need to modprobe usblp manually
[12:49] <gandolfthewizard> how do i load wine
[12:49] <Rickman> mik3, it still gave me the same error.
[12:49] <Admiral_Chicago> ugarit, what are you trying to do?
[12:49] <bruenig> gandolfthewizard, after you install wine, you  need to do winecfg, to create the compatibility layer
[12:50] <Mik3> hmm, ok, then i'm not sure
[12:50] <esc2> how can i get it to load that module when i connect a usb printer
[12:50] <gandolfthewizard> is that after i extract it?
[12:50] <Dr_willis> esc2,  /etc/modules   - list of modules to auto load at boot
[12:50] <Rickman> admiral_chicago, not sure i"m trying to be root....
[12:50] <Dr_willis> esc2,  i think thats the right name.
[12:50] <bruenig> gandolfthewizard, why don't you install from the repos instead of from source?
[12:50] <esc2> also cups doesn't give me an error message
[12:50] <gandolfthewizard> from were
[12:51] <esc2> no
[12:51] <gandolfthewizard> sorry all i am new to linux
[12:51] <ugarit> Admiral_Chicago: glxgears is only hitting about 810 fps!
[12:51] <Dr_willis> # /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
[12:51] <esc2> i want it to load when and as it detects a usb printer
[12:51] <bruenig> gandolfthewizard, open a terminal and do sudo apt-get install wine
[12:51] <shut-> kool
[12:51] <esc2> not always
[12:51] <Squee> ugarit, that is a terrible benchmark tool
[12:51] <Dr_willis> esc2,  you plugging a printer and just rarely using it?
[12:51] <ugarit> Squee: hmm! what is a good one?
[12:51] <Squee> ugarit, even if you move your focus away from that window you gain 1000 fps
[12:51] <Admiral_Chicago> Rickman, says you are root@localhost
[12:51] <shut-> i am not using linux atm as driver for printer isnt made yet
[12:51] <Admiral_Chicago> ugarit, hmm, no idea
[12:51] <esc2> well, i just borrow it from the flat downstairs
[12:51] <Squee> ugarit, i acutally use tuxracer...
[12:52] <bruenig> shut-, you should write one
[12:52] <esc2> Dr_willis, actually i'm joking
[12:52] <shut-> i dont know how
[12:52] <ugarit> Squee: so do I and I'm successful, but flightgear is terrible
[12:52] <esc2> of course its connected all the time
[12:52] <ugarit> google earth is also very slow
[12:52] <Rickman> admiral_chicago.  oh, I don't know.  I'm just trying to install mysql for the first time.... totally confused
[12:52] <Dr_willis> esc2,  and the reason to not load the module at boot time then is ?.....
[12:52] <esc2> but i'd rathere know how to load a module, when a device connects
[12:52] <Squee> ugarit: well, does glxinfo state direct rendering is working?
[12:53] <ugarit> Squee: yes
[12:53] <esc2> rathere than have all sorts of modules
[12:53] <Dr_willis> esc2,  that would be in the udev rule sets I belive.
[12:53] <esc2> ok
[12:53] <esc2> thats great
[12:53] <Squee> ugarit, then maybe it's just a slow card I dont know
[12:53] <esc2> its just principle
[12:53] <khaije1> i was reading about deb-src and related tools and it got me thinking.... are there any tools to automate (or simplify) building a deb from arbitrary source?
[12:53] <ugarit> Squee: it's an i915gm
[12:53] <esc2> the principle of getting it right
[12:54] <ugarit> is that slow or fast, I really don't know!  I dual boot and flightgear and google earth are excellent in winxp
[12:54] <esc2> unfortunately i am damend with it, rather than just making it work ok
[12:54] <Squee> ugarit: i have no experience with intel in linux
[12:54] <bruenig> khaije1, checkinstall?
[12:54] <khaije1> i guess i want to know what it would take to make my own packages (for easier mgmt)
[12:54] <Squee> does anyone know what cards the radeon driver supports?  Or where I can watch for developments?
[12:54] <rayston> anyone on here know anything about corrupted superblocks?
[12:54] <esc2> but Dr_willis thanks for the info
[12:54] <bruenig> !info checkinstall
[12:54] <ubotu> checkinstall: installation tracker. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.3-3ubuntu2 (dapper), package size 34 kB, installed size 132 kB
[12:54] <Dr_willis> Squee,  check the ati linux driver homepage.
[12:54] <esc2> much appreciated
[12:54] <asciiart> how i can install a previous version of xorg? now I have xorg 7 and I need Xorg 6.8, I need make this to solve this problem -> (II) fglrx(0): driver needs X.org 6.8.x.y with x.y >= 99.8
[12:54] <khaije1> bruenig: oh ya? I'll read up on that, any other related things i should investigate?
[12:54] <Squee> dr_willis: this is seperate from the official ati driver?  because i'm not looking for that
[12:55] <ugarit> my fonts (ttf) are not rendered as well as in winxp, although I've setup the same fonts, and dpi, how can one improve them?
[12:55] <Dr_willis> Squee,   chedk the OFFICIAL ati web site :P
[12:55] <shmulik> I've got a MacBook Pro and the Atheros wifi card is not getting any DHCP leases from APs in the area (although it seems to be able to see them).  Also, lspci returns: "Atheros Communications, Inc.: Unknown device 001c (rev 01)"
[12:55] <khaije1> hmm anyone then... are there any other auto-package-building-from-compiled-source-code tools?
[12:55] <Dr_willis> Squee,  of course what they say works.. and what works is often different. :)
[12:56] <gandolfthewizard> how do i open a terminal
[12:56] <max_> Then beg for Free drivers
[12:56] <finalbeta> Anyone can recommned me some snmp monitor? GUI thing, perhaps even with desklets or a panel for gnome.
[12:56] <ugarit> gandolfthewizard: in which display manager?
[12:56] <ugarit> gnome, kde etc
[12:57] <Squee> dr_willis: I have the ati driver right now.  I dont want it.  The unofficial radeon driver has aiglx working.  but radeon just crashes X for me, i can only use vesa or the official fglrx or my card doesnt work
[12:57] <khaije1> wow, checkinstall looks perfect!
[12:57] <shut-> who can write a driver for printers
[12:57] <Paco> Hi! I'm looking for someone who has gone through a Intel 537EP modem install; problem here... looking for help
[12:57] <godtvisken> When attempting to install Windows XP through VMware in linux, the windows install says it cannot find any harddrives. What should I do?
[12:57] <krazykit> !wireless
[12:57] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:58] <kitche> godtvisken: did you make a virtual hard drive?
[12:58] <Squee> godtvisken: you havve drive set up?
[12:58] <Rickman> how can i downgrade phpmyadmin  from 2.8.03 to 2.7.0?
[12:58] <Dr_willis> Squee,  you are fering to the Xorg 'ati' driver then. :) not the 'fglrx' driver by "ATI" - that would discussed at the    Xorg web site I guess.
[12:58] <Squee> dr_Willis: thanks, i'll look there
[12:59] <godtvisken> kitche, Squee: i think so, but how can i check?
[12:59] <JoshIRL> well
[12:59] <JoshIRL> it didn't work. perhaps i should just download the 6.06 drapper version fresh and burn it.
[01:00] <Admiral_Chicago> JoshIRL, you need to be online....
[01:00] <JoshIRL> I am online. lol
[01:00] <Admiral_Chicago> yes that would be a good idea.
[01:00] <Squee> gottvisken: I've never used vmware, just virtual pc, it just sounds like your hard drives aren't set up properly
[01:00] <JoshIRL> Always online
[01:00] <JoshIRL> is 6.06 stable?
[01:01] <gandolfthewizard> it says it was obseleted
[01:01] <gnomefreak> JoshIRL: yes
[01:02] <JoshIRL> hopefully that will work then :\

[01:16] <DethKlok> how do i get the fdisk utility?
[01:16] <tom47> !fdisk
[01:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:16] <jrib> DethKlok: you probably have it, if not install util-linux
[01:16] <Jaak> does opera support flash?
[01:17] <viator> fdisk is already installed
[01:17] <pdavid> so dmesg gives that for output, but no associated block device shows up under /dev/ for it
[01:17] <DethKlok> jrib: i did but its still not working
[01:17] <Dr_willis> sorush20, http://www.fs-driver.org/
[01:17] <jrib> DethKlok: what ahppens?
[01:17] <viator> automatically
[01:17] <JoshIRL> Admiral_Chicago: No, i don't have any raid-drivers or anything. Atleast i don't think so.
[01:17] <Admiral_Chicago> JoshIRL, then you're fine with the regular CD
[01:18] <JoshIRL> Ok good.
[01:18] <JoshIRL> I hope this install works :(
[01:18] <JoshIRL> Also, is it true that linux/unix/ubuntu has a longer uptime than windows? My friend sais that his linux can stay up and running for weeks at a time.
[01:18] <Dr_willis> JoshIRL,  months, years... even
[01:18] <domibel> yes its true
[01:18] <Jan-pp> I have a console-only server running here and I would like to replace the beep with a visual-only beep. The tutorials on the net seem not to work. any ideas?
[01:18] <Dr_willis> one month+ uptime - is common
[01:19] <tom47> DethKlok type "man fdisk" in a terminal window
[01:19] <Phlosten> JoshIRL: linux is based on unix, unix was designed never to reboot
[01:19] <Dr_willis> Ive had machines running torrent clients  in the basement with 6+ weeks uptime.

[01:20] <Rudd-O> I need help with beryl and xgl in ubuntu
[01:20] <Phlosten> i dont leave my machine on all the time, i value a low power bill not a high uptime :)
[01:20] <Rudd-O> I have succesffuly installed it in fedora
[01:20] <domibel> my linux-router uptime is 7 month
[01:20] <Rudd-O> but I fail to see it work on ubuntu

[01:23] <bluefox83> how do you configure your keyboard keys for snes9x?
[01:24] <ned> i installed kubuntu-desktop on an ubuntu installation
[01:24] <bluefox83> and i install xmess and can't find it anywhere
[01:24] <ned> it changed the splash screen to kubuntu
[01:24] <Dr_willis> bluefox83,  check the menus/docs.. i recall it not being very hard to do.
[01:24] <ned> how do i switch it back to ubuntu splash screen
[01:24] <bluefox83> menus/docs?
[01:25] <Dr_willis> bluefox83,  read the docs for the program.. and check the menu items.. proberly som preferance/settings menu

[01:25] <ubotu> Package snes9x does not exist in any distro I know
[01:25] <bluefox83> O.o
[01:25] <Jan-pp> I have a console-only server running here and I would like to replace the beep with a visual-only beep. The tutorials on the net seem not to work. any ideas?

[01:25] <Senesence> How do I install a new .pcf font?
[01:25] <bluefox83> hrm...
[01:25] <ned> i installed kubuntu-desktop on an ubuntu installation; how do i switch it back to the regular ubuntu splash screen
[01:26] <bluefox83> Dr_willis, that's the problem, i can't find the manual pages
[01:26] <Dr_willis> a lot of the emulators are vanishing from the repos. :(
[01:26] <domibel> i am searching for a user statistics, how much user are using debian / and or ubuntu
 Ive had machines running torrent clients  in the basement with 6+ weeks uptime. <-- that's awesome haha
[01:26] <Dr_willis> try the program homepage.
[01:26] <motin> Hmmm, I can't get my vnc login attempts to authenticate over ssh. Always password incorrect despite the fact that I have run vncpasswd, vnc4passwd, realvncpasswd - both as my user and as root and set the password. What can I try next??
[01:26] <JoshIRL> my stupid windows reboots like once a week at the longest uptime. lol
[01:26] <kromel> If I have an integrated video and normal Video card, how do I get X to see the other graphics card, and not the integrated?
[01:27] <Senesence> Can anyone help me install a .pcf font?
[01:27] <Dr_willis> kromel,  normally you disable the interl card in the bios.
[01:27] <ClayG> can anyone recommend a good gnome based unrar app?
[01:27] <bluefox83> kromel, you hook your monitor into the one you want to use..
[01:27] <Dr_willis> ClayG,  ark can handle rars if you install the rar packages.. or use 'wine winrar.exe' :)
[01:27] <kromel> Dr_Willis: but ubuntu doesn't boot with the integrated card disabled.
[01:28] <ClayG> ark? ill synaptic ark rar
[01:28] <ned> i installed kubuntu-desktop on an ubuntu installation; how do i switch it back to the regular ubuntu splash screen
[01:28] <ClayG> see if i have any luck
[01:28] <Arrick> Dr_willis doyou know of a quick way to get a box to allow passthrough connections to the internet, so I can research other comfigurations for what I want?
[01:28] <THX-1138> Arrick - firestarter
[01:28] <Arrick> THX-1138 yeah, if I could get firestarter to work, that migh be an option
[01:29] <Arrick> but since firestarter has no gui, thats not a quick option right nwo
[01:29] <Arrick> now
[01:29] <Dr_willis> Arrick,  you mean set up ip-masquerading so  other pc;s on the lan use the first pc as their gateway?
[01:29] <Senesence> How can I get new text fonts to work in ubuntu?
[01:29] <THX-1138> iptables, bastille, shorewall (crosses fingers) i don't know if they are easy to use.
[01:30] <Arrick> Dr_willis yes please
[01:30] <THX-1138> !sharing
[01:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sharing - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:31] <Arrick> Dr_willis what I have is this wan>ubuntu breezy box>hub>lan
[01:31] <Dr_willis> Arrick,  aint used that in years.. since i got  a router...
[01:31] <cpk2> also might need forward set to yes
[01:31] <viator> firestarter is gui
[01:31] <viator> for iptables
[01:31] <viator> heh
[01:31] <Arrick> viator well, since firestarter is on this pc, how do I access the gui?
[01:31] <Dr_willis> Arrick,  its just a few commands  that enable it..google the wiki/forums/ web for ip-masquerading perhaps...
[01:32] <viator> launch it from the cli
[01:32] <viator> or
[01:32] <Arrick> because it sure doesnt shop up
[01:32] <Dr_willis> yea - you set forwarding to yes. with some echo command,, to somewhere.. :P then  i froget the rest
[01:32] <viator> is you have a launcher
[01:32] <Arrick> Dr_willis thanks
[01:32] <david> hey folks
[01:32] <Arrick> viator what would be the command to launch it from cli?
[01:33] <seamus7> Hi. I have a simple question about installing programs. I downloaded a newer version of Azuerues from its website and extracted the archive. Where am I supposed to put the directory or any program directory for that matter?
[01:33] <bluefox83> ?
[01:33] <viator> look under your menu
[01:33] <viator> first
[01:33] <Dr_willis> seamus7,  ive found it easir to install azuerus on a 'per user' basis.. ie. let the user install it to their own home dir.. not systemwide.
[01:33] <viator> see if its there
[01:34] <viator> applications>internet
[01:34] <Dr_willis> seamus7,  that way it can auto-update
[01:34] <seamus7> yeah that's what i did... i went to the azuerues website and got 2.5
[01:34] <bluefox83> i freakin hate azureus, i highly recommend qbittorrent
[01:34] <Senesence> Where are pcf fonts stored on ubuntu?
[01:34] <viator> or just do sudo firestarter
[01:34] <seamus7> it fixes some bugs in the official ubuntu version found in synaptic
[01:34] <viator> from the cli
[01:34] <Dr_willis> bluefox83,  i dislike azaurus also. :P
[01:34] <Dr_willis> seamus7,  i wouldent use the ubuntu version at all.
[01:35] <bluefox83> Dr_willis, try qbittorrent...it's awesome. very low overhead
[01:35] <seamus7> i tried qbittorrent and ktorrent and utorrent under wine ... azureus is the only one which worked right away and had all the features I need
[01:35] <ltr2000> I have a big problem, i can't boot in Ubuntu!
[01:35] <ltr2000> It seems my ubuntu system crashed
[01:35] <ltr2000> how do i fix this?
[01:35] <Dr_willis> bluefox83,  i like 'wine utorrent.exe' :P
[01:35] <tonyyarusso> Dr_willis: I suppose you could also make a subfolder with different permissions under /opt.
[01:35] <bluefox83> the only downside is, i don't think it's in apt, so you will need to download the .deb from the website
[01:35] <david> can someone help me out? I'm trying to write to my windows partitin and can't, this is the line in in my fstab  "/dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1" and this is my attributes on my hard drive " dr-xr-x---" where do i add "w"
[01:36] <bluefox83> Dr_willis, wtf is with running wine? there are excellent linux applications available for anything windows
[01:36] <motin> Hmmm, I can't get my vnc login attempts to authenticate over ssh. Always password incorrect despite the fact that I have run vncpasswd, vnc4passwd, realvncpasswd - both as my user and as root and set the password. What can I try next??
[01:36] <harleypig> I'm using auto-apt and checkinstall to compile and install vim7, but I'm getting the following error: trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/vimtutor', which is also in package vim-runtime
[01:36] <harleypig> any pointers?
[01:36] <seamus7> I'm sorry... my question was where is the standard place to keep a program directory? Just in my /home/'user' directory?
[01:36] <tonyyarusso> ltr2000: Well, for the people that will be able to help you it would help to give more info.  For instance, is this a new install or one that was working before for a while, and suddenly this happened?  Anything you've changed recently, etc.
[01:36] <harleypig> omg, nm ... uninstall the other vim packages ...
[01:36] <harleypig> why do I figure these things *after* asking the question?
[01:37] <bluefox83> lol
[01:37] <tonyyarusso> seamus7: /opt is designed for that purpose, but you certainly can put things in your home dir too.
[01:37] <seamus7> oh ok thx
[01:37] <bluefox83> sometimes you just need to say a problem aloud
[01:37] <ltr2000> tonyyarusso, it says Grub Error ... or somthing
[01:37] <ltr2000> it was working for 1 month
[01:37] <ltr2000> i don't think i changed anything today
[01:37] <Parabola> how do i change file associations?
[01:38] <david> Do i add or remove attributes in my fstab file?
[01:38] <Parabola> i cant remove movie player, because apt tries to remove ubuntu-desktop, and movie player is a piece of crap, doesnt play ANYTHING
[01:38] <bluefox83> ltr2000, your system didn't install a new kernel?
[01:38] <jpsm> d
[01:38] <david> If so, what part?
[01:38] <ltr2000> ltr2000, no clue.
[01:38] <seamus7> tonyyarusso: is that where you keep all of your stand alone programs ... in /opt ?
[01:38] <Senesence> How can I set up a .pcf font to use on Ubuntu?
[01:39] <jrib> Parabola: you can install other movie players without removing it.  But if you want to remove it, ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package so you don't need it unless you upgrade versions of ubuntu.  Lastly, Movie Player should play everything if you install the needed codecs
[01:39] <jrib> ubotu: tell Parabola about ubuntu-desktop
[01:39] <viator> what greb error is it?
[01:39] <jrib> ubotu: tell Parabola about multimedia
[01:39] <viator> whats the #
[01:39] <tonyyarusso> seamus7: At the moment I don't have any, actually.  But when I got newer versions of Firefox than were in the repos I put them there, yes.
[01:39] <jrib> ubotu: tell Parabola about defaultapp
[01:39] <harleypig> Hmm ... trying to remove vim from my system also removes ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-base ... will this cause any problems?
[01:40] <seamus7> oh ok thx
[01:40] <Parabola> jrib thanks :) but why install codecs for a crappy media player? i can use VLC and beep :)
[01:40] <Phlosten> harleypig: why remove vim?
[01:40] <rayston> anyone on here know anything about corrupted superblocks?
[01:40] <Parabola> media player is a subpar app, horrid UI
[01:40] <Parabola> doesnt play anything out of the box
[01:40] <jrib> Parabola: totem isn't bad if you use xine as a backend, try the totem-xine package
[01:41] <Parabola> jrib so removing ubuntu-desktop wont hurt anything?
[01:41] <seamus7> are there currently any fixes for flash sound synching in firefox or is that suppoes to be fixed in the linux version of flash in 2007?
[01:41] <Phlosten> seamus7: no fixes, wait for flash 9 for linux afaik
[01:41] <jrib> Parabola: but yeah, I'd prefer vlc as well.  Or even better, mplayer :).  Nope, you can safely remove ubuntu-desktop, just isntall it again before upgrading to edgy
[01:41] <Parabola> okay thanks!
[01:41] <Senesence> If you love Ubuntu type: :)
[01:41] <seamus7> phlosten: oh ok thx.
[01:41] <seamus7> :)
[01:42] <harleypig> Phlosten: I'm trying to install vim7
[01:42] <harleypig> and vimtutor is blocking
[01:42] <Phlosten> harleypig: oh ok, those other packages are only meta-packages, only really needed for upgrading
[01:42] <Phlosten> harleypig: dist-upgrading
[01:43] <Sktisangry> is there a program that let's you untar and install things without having to do it yourself?
[01:43] <seamus7> what's the best multi-media plugin for firefox ... or does it depend on the site visited?
[01:43] <mcphail> harleypig: install vim7 in /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin and things should be ok
[01:43] <harleypig> So I'll need to get those put back in before doing my next dist-upgrade ... so, If I've got my "custom" vim7 package I should be able to reinstall those right away?
[01:44] <peace-keeper> is there any linux program for opening adobe illustrator files?
[01:44] <jrib> Sktisangry: you should use apt to install things
[01:44] <Sktisangry> but what if i download things that are tar.bz2?
[01:44] <Subhuman> Sktisangry, its called  untar it, cd to the directory "./configure && make && sudo make-install"
[01:44] <jrib> seamus7: I like mozilla-mplayer
[01:44] <Sktisangry> Oh really?
[01:44] <harleypig> mcphail: but that'll give me two installations of vim, and I'd rather avoid that if possible.
[01:44] <Senesence> Does anyone use Triskweline as a font here?
[01:45] <seamus7> I wish I could use just one video player instead of having so many installed right now... any play all formats in cluding proprietary ones
[01:45] <seamus7> jrib: oh ok thx
[01:45] <Parabola> so thats pimp my apt has super cow powers
[01:45] <jrib> Sktisangry: most things are going to be available in apt
[01:45] <THX-1138> Arrick - reboot. and firestarter works perfectly - you didn't want the mod commands do you to save the reboot?
[01:45] <jrib> ubotu: tell Sktisangry about compile
[01:45] <jrib> Sktisangry: in case you do need to compile though, check out ubotu's instructions.  There really isn't any magic way to do it automatically
[01:46] <Parabola> can i remove evolution jrib?
[01:46] <Parabola> or will that break anything
[01:46] <Arrick> THX-1138 when have you ever needed to reboot after installing something in ubuntu?
[01:46] <jrib> Parabola: I'd keep it.  I tried to remove it once, but a lot of gnome stuff depends on it.  Try 'sudo apt-get -s remove evolution' and see what it says though
[01:46] <Celeste> hi
[01:46] <harleypig> Arrick: you mean besides a kernel upgrade? :>
[01:46] <THX-1138> Arrick - yes, all the time - (lol - i don't know the module to load.)
[01:46] <Sktisangry> Well the problem is, last fm needs you to compile things.
[01:47] <Sktisangry> And I have no idea how to do any of that.
[01:47] <karim> is there a way to know the sockets a programm is listening on ?
[01:47] <Celeste> where is the MySQL configuration file located at, please?  I need to enable logging for EVERY query (also the ones which have been done by PHP scripts)
[01:47] <Senesence> Anyone use this font: http://www.netalive.org/tinkering/triskweline/
[01:47] <jrib> Sktisangry: ubotu's page should help
[01:47] <Arrick> harleypig im still on breezy
[01:47] <domibel> karim, nmap
[01:47] <mcphail> harleypig: vim7 and vim6 coexist peacefully on my box
[01:47] <jrib> Sktisangry: also, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Last.fm
[01:47] <Parabola> jrib,  so i removed totem, and i can still run it
[01:48] <jrib> Parabola: interesting
[01:48] <jrib> Parabola: totem probably depends on totem-gstreamer
[01:48] <green_earz> karim: netstat
[01:48] <karim> netstat is really slow
[01:49] <Parabola> damnit
[01:49] <Parabola> jrib,  youre the man
[01:49] <viator> sudo apt-get --purge remove totem-gstreamer
[01:49] <Senesence> Can anyone here help me?
[01:49] <harleypig> mcphail: On mine too ... I don't want multiple installations if I can get away with it ... space is at a premium.
[01:50] <karim> netstat is really slow
[01:50] <Parabola> okay jrib  update for you, if you remove totem file properties window gets an error :)
[01:50] <Senesence> karim: How slow?
[01:51] <Parabola> so i'm reinstalling it
[01:51] <Rickman> how can I move a directory with all of it's contained files to another directory located in a completely different location, such as ~/dir to /var/www/newdir
[01:51] <viator> remove totem-xine
[01:51] <viator> whoops
[01:51] <viator> INSTALL!
[01:51] <karim> Senesence, takes ages to show, try it
[01:51] <jrib> Rickman: mv foo bar
[01:51] <viator> install totem-xine remove totem-gstreamer
[01:52] <carrarro> Greetings everyone... I;m looking for
[01:52] <carrarro> some help
[01:52] <jrib> !helpme
[01:52] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:52] <Rickman> jrib, ok, that's easy.  I was going to use mv, but didn't know if it would recurse subdirectories...so new to this
[01:52] <jrib> Rickman: yep mv will work fine, copying is a different story
[01:52] <CowboyBo1> Total noob question: I'm trying to play MP3s in Totem. Saw that I needed to download gstreamer....but the package mgr shows it to be installed (green checkbox).   There still a  piece missing somewhere.
[01:52] <jrib> ubotu: tell Rickman about cli
[01:52] <carrarro> how do I make wireless capabilties (of a mac laptop) available
[01:53] <viator> i love how so many mac folks use ubuntu :)
[01:53] <Rickman> ubotu: tell Rickman about cli
[01:53] <devicenull`> has anyone installed ubuntu via pxe?
[01:53] <_Sync_> !cli
[01:54] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[01:54] <carrarro> I am a total newb for the mac aswell (I just got it)
[01:54] <viator> i hate how  everthing on osx wants you to buy a .mac acct
[01:54] <Rickman> jrib: thank you very much
[01:54] <jrib> Rickman: np
[01:54] <_Sync_> it was me :P
[01:54] <carrarro> well my problem was that I did not have enough priviliges to install some software.
[01:55] <viator> doesnt the mac have a broadcom chipset?
[01:55] <viator> airport
[01:55] <carrarro> I do not know what broadcom is
[01:55] <oidia> how can i use a user without a shell with proftpd?
[01:55] <carrarro> YES the Airport thing is what I want to use
[01:56] <Rasta> is possible to move a complete installation of ubunto to another disk? fro example right now i have it on hdb2 (second partitiond of the second disk)and i want to move it to hda (fisrt disk only one partition)
[01:56] <carrarro> I have just finished installing Ubuntu and completely wipped off the OS X
[01:57] <tonyyarusso> Rasta: dd will do it for sure; not sure whether there's a better way.
[01:57] <Rasta> dd?
[01:58] <JoshIRL> wow
[01:58] <carrarro> viator: do you know how to activate the airport thing
[01:58] <JoshIRL> I'm on the ubuntu 6.06 disk
[01:58] <JoshIRL> how do i change the resolution
[01:58] <JoshIRL> lol
[01:58] <JoshIRL> it's like 400x600
[01:59] <viator> do a lsmod
[01:59] <JoshIRL> I found the resolution change, but when i click it don't bring a drop down or anything :S
[01:59] <viator> well fist
[01:59] <viator> do a lspci
[01:59] <JoshIRL> ..
[01:59] <viator> and see what it says about your card
[01:59] <JoshIRL> How do i do a 'lspci'?
[01:59] <viator> sorry josh wasnt talking to you
[01:59] <viator> my bad
[01:59] <JoshIRL> oh
[01:59] <JoshIRL> :)
[02:00] <viator> system prefrences
[02:00] <viator> screen resolution
[02:00] <viator> ?
[02:00] <JoshIRL> I'm there, but when i click to change
[02:00] <JoshIRL> it don't give any other options
[02:00] <JoshIRL> :x
[02:00] <viator> ahh
[02:01] <viator> what graphics card do you have
[02:01] <LuisMendes> hey, I'm trying to run a game but I get the message: "relocation error: ./wolfgl: symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference" any ideas?
[02:01] <JoshIRL> a pretty lame one, but it can go 1240x* or whatever, it's not no 400 600 lol
[02:01] <viator> i mean is it ati ir nvidia or other
[02:01] <tobiasu> LuisMendes: it's compiled against a version you don't have
[02:01] <domibel> josh, open a terminal: lspci | grep VGA
[02:01] <JoshIRL> Ati radeon xpress 200
[02:01] <JoshIRL> Terminal?
[02:01] <JoshIRL> <noob :X
[02:02] <LuisMendes> tobiasu, so I should download the source and I compile myself to avoid that?
[02:02] <tobiasu> LuisMendes: if you don't fear messing with glib, yes
[02:02] <viator> reconfigure x josh
[02:03] <tobiasu> but you can make your system unusable if you don't know what you're doing
[02:03] <LuisMendes> tobiasu, messing with glib? how could that be?
[02:03] <viator> stop gdm like so
[02:03] <viator> whoops
[02:03] <viator> udo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[02:03] <JoshIRL> viator, what do you mean?
[02:03] <viator> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[02:03] <tobiasu> or recompile wolfgl if that's possible
[02:03] <JoshIRL> ..
[02:03] <viator>   sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:03] <JoshIRL> Are you talking to me? Lol

[02:06] <sethk> ltr2000, you can delete all your grub state files.  that will fix your problem, _but_ you'll lose all settings and state.  the desktop will be the way it was the first time you logged in.
[02:06] <viator> yes

[02:10] <seamus7> Hi .. I downloaded Azureus 2.5 and put it in my home directory ... I first opened it with 'gksudo' from within its directory ... I configured it and created a launcher on the desktop ... after I closed the root terminal window ... and then azureus itself... I reopened it with the launcher ...BUT Azureus starts over from the initial configuration screen without any of my previous configurations .. what did I do wrong?
[02:10] <carrarro> thank you guys... I read on and let you know if need more advice
[02:11] <JoshIRL> ah i got it av, thanks for that command.
[02:11] <seamus7> Maybe i shoudlnt' have opened it with 'gksudo'??
[02:12] <JoshIRL> choose the entry that best describes your mouse. imps/2 or explorerps/2, what's the diff?
[02:12] <THX-1138> ltr200 - I have never had problems with gparted that resizing to one disk type format ntfs/ext3 and checkdsk or fsck couldn't fix.
[02:12] <wood> I have some problem with my DSL Connection any of you know what I can do to scan ping or something to make a log of that problem ?
[02:12] <sethk> seamus7, correct
[02:12] <brian98> wood scan ping?
[02:12] <sethk> seamus7, the config was written to a subdirectory of /root
[02:12] <brian98> use can use fping -g 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.254
[02:12] <JoshIRL> choose the entry that best describes your mouse. imps/2 or explorerps/2, | Which would the typical american mouse with 2 buttons and a scroll wheel be? Lol
[02:12] <brian98> that will tell you anything alive in that range
[02:12] <nemik> hello, for some reason when i log in with anything other than 'gnome failsafe' session it always gets stuck at "Window Manager" and has two identical icons next to each other.
[02:13] <nemik> what could the problem be?
[02:13] <seamus7> sethk: so is there an executable azureus file that I can configure a launcher to there in /root that would therefore include my configuration?
[02:13] <wood> brian98: i would like to send a ping every sec to the dns server and at the same time make a log of that ping
[02:13] <sethk> seamus7, no, because you don't want to be running it as root.
[02:14] <JoshIRL> ffs i set up xserver and it still isn't going :(
[02:14] <sethk> seamus7, probably you can copy the configuration, though.
[02:14] <tonyyarusso> What's the syntax for the command to export the C compiler environment variable as using gcc version 3.4 instead of 4.0?
[02:14] <sethk> tonyyarusso, $CC, but it doesn't work on all programs.
[02:14] <seamus7> sethk: oh ok ... is there any special type of file I might generally be looking for that might be the configuration directory (or file)?
[02:14] <brian98> wood ping yourdns > ping.txt
[02:14] <rockstar_> tonyyarusso, GCC I believe
[02:14] <wood> brian98 : thanks
[02:15] <rioJ-capicrimm> How do I generate a sha1 checksum with cksum?, what switch?
[02:15] <brian98> wood, ping.txt can be anything and yourdns is your dns servers ip :)
[02:15] <THX-1138> brian98 - will he be bothered by his isp for pinging the dns server that often?
[02:15] <tonyyarusso> sethk, rockstar_: I thought it was something like 'export cc=something'  I mean the terminal command to say to use it ahead of time, not putting it in a script.
[02:15] <brian98> THX-1138, no
[02:15] <sethk> seamus7, it will have created a directory beginning with .  (dot).   as root, do ls -la --sort=time
[02:16] <sethk> seamus7, the last directory listed should be the one you want
[02:16] <seamus7> sethk: oh ok .... thx
[02:16] <tonyyarusso> sethk, rockstar_: For context, I'm helping someone who needs to compile a modem driver using 3.4.
[02:16] <JoshIR1> im losing my mind here lol
[02:17] <Senesence> How so I install Triskweline font: http://www.netalive.org/tinkering/triskweline/ on ubuntu?
[02:17] <sethk> tonyyarusso, hopefully it will follow the convention of using the value of CC as the compiler
[02:17] <brian98> JoshIR1, whats the prob
[02:17] <JoshIR1> Resolution.
[02:17] <JoshIR1> I'm installing ubuntu
[02:17] <brian98> ok
[02:17] <JoshIR1> the resolution is to big to see the install screen
[02:17] <JoshIR1> so i can't hit next and see bottom half of the page.
[02:18] <JoshIR1> i tried reconfig xserver, and start x, but it sais i can't or don't have permission or something of the same ordeal
[02:18] <brian98> JoshIR1, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:18] <siXy> install in text mode?
[02:18] <JoshIR1> then i go to change screen resolution and the drop down don't give me any options
[02:18] <JoshIR1> ok hangon
[02:18] <Senesence> Can someone just tell me how to install pcf fonts on ubuntu?
[02:18] <tonyyarusso> sethk: Right, but I need to change that value to use one other than the default version in Dapper.
[02:18] <viator> then install fglrx driver atleast
[02:18] <sethk> tonyyarusso, yes, so set CC to point at the compiler you wish it to use
[02:18] <JoshIR1> (18:18:12) brian98: JoshIR1, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:19] <tonyyarusso> sethk: How?
[02:19] <JoshIR1> do you mean phigh-xserver-xorg?
[02:19] <JoshIR1> or was it meant to be like that?
[02:19] <sethk> tonyyarusso, export CC=/usr/whatever..../gcc
[02:19] <brian98> JoshIR1, just do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:19] <tonyyarusso> sethk: Okay.
[02:19] <Senesence> I have a new font that I want to install on ubuntu, but I don't know how.
[02:20] <brian98> !font
[02:20] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[02:20] <JoshIR1> ok i did it
[02:20] <brian98> JoshIR1, did it take you through lots of options?
[02:20] <JoshIR1> no
[02:20] <JoshIR1> Lol
[02:20] <JoshIR1> hangon i'll get what it sais
[02:20] <brian98> says
[02:20] <brian98> ;)
[02:20] <JoshIR1> -.-
[02:21] <brian98> I was going to say hello earlier
[02:21] <brian98> but I was afraid it might have been deemed offtopic
[02:21] <brian98> ahem
[02:21] <brian98> so
[02:21] <brian98> hola
[02:22] <JoshIR1> Brian, it sais...
[02:22] <brian98> says
[02:22] <seamus7> sethk: found that .azureus directory in root ... you think this is the configuration I created while I was under root? ... if so, where would I place it now NOT under root ... in the azureus program directory I'm keeping in my home folder?
[02:22] <JoshIR1> postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration file; backup in /etc/xll/xorg.conf.numbers here
[02:22] <brian98> thats ok
[02:22] <brian98> try startx now
[02:23] <JoshIR1> uh
[02:23] <brian98> type startx
[02:23] <JoshIR1> i did
[02:23] <JoshIR1> lol
[02:23] <JoshIR1> it sa..ys
[02:23] <brian98> can you paste what it says into channel #xxz
[02:23] <JoshIR1> alot accually, i can't copy and past, but x:user not authorized to run the x server, aborting.
[02:23] <viator> josh try installing the xorg-driver-fglrx maybe ;)
[02:23] <JoshIR1> xinit: server error
[02:23] <JoshIR1> couldn't get a file descriptor
[02:23] <sethk> seamus7, /root is root's home directory.  you move it to the user's home directory
[02:24] <brian98> josh sudo startx
[02:24] <brian98> not a good idea
[02:24] <brian98> but want to see if it's a config prob
[02:24] <brian98> or permissions
[02:24] <sethk> seamus7, remember you can use mv with a directory name which moves the directory and the files in the directory
[02:24] <seamus7> sethk: ok ... just /home or /home/'user'?
[02:24] <sethk> seamus7, you'll also have to change the ownership.
[02:24] <sethk> seamus7, /home is not anybody's home directory.  /home/user
[02:24] <JoshIR1> brian
[02:24] <brian98> Yup
[02:24] <JoshIR1> make a private channel so i can pase this to you?
[02:24] <JoshIR1> Paste*
[02:24] <sethk> seamus7, you'll also have to change the file ownership to user
[02:25] <gc997> Hey guys, I have a question about edgy beta.  I am getting a new laptop next week and I use ubuntu as my primary operating system.  I would rather avoid setting up dapper and then a month later having to do a reinstall.  If I intall edgy beta will I be upgraded all the way to the offical release version as the month passes?
[02:25] <brian98> #xxz
[02:25] <seamus7> sethk: ok ... how do I change th e ownership?
[02:25] <brian98> gc997, I have edgy on a laptop at the moment and it's fine
[02:25] <viator> pastebin
[02:25] <sethk> seamus7, chown
[02:25] <seamus7> sethk: thanks by the way
[02:25] <brian98> but it does come with a health warning!
[02:25] <sethk> seamus7, chown user:user /home/user/.az.....
[02:26] <sethk> seamus7, .az.... meaning I'm too lazy to scroll up and see the full directory name
[02:26] <seamus7> sethk: ok thx
[02:27] <seamus7> sethk: oh waith... do i need to replace 'user' with my username in all three instances of 'chown user:user /home/user/.azureus'?
[02:27] <Sktisangry> ok that didn't work the config stuff you tried telling me.
[02:27] <sethk> seamus7, yes
[02:28] <Sktisangry> it won't let me sudo make or config or anything

[02:30] <eagle1> is night.
[02:30] <krazykit> viator: no.
[02:30] <cafuego> viator: it should, yes
[02:30] <eagle1> deep and black night.
[02:30] <sethk> Sktisangry, it's just make.  gmake is used on systems with another, native makefile.  In linux it is just make
[02:30] <viator> cafuego but not out of the box right
[02:30] <sethk> Sktisangry, what problem are you having when you try to compile?
[02:30] <krups> hi, any advice on software to edit videos?  ideally i'd like to chop some commercials out and then resample the resulting file to a smaller file.
[02:31] <krazykit> cafuego: i just spend the last few hours fighting a bcm4318 card with the native drivers.  i doesn't work :-P
[02:31] <viator> i nned to grab some firmware or somthin
[02:31] <cafuego> viator: No, you will need the firmware - that's not in Ubuntu.
[02:31] <krazykit> viator: it SHOULD work with ndiswrapper, though
[02:31] <viator> ok
[02:31] <Sktisangry> it won't even let me do it?
[02:31] <cafuego> viator: Yeah, check ubuntu.caguego.net -> there is a firmware package.
[02:31] <cafuego> ubuntu.cafuego.net
[02:31] <viator> thanks  :)
[02:32] <cafuego> viator: You may or may not need to do a small tweak before the card will work after that; some bcm4318's need you to run 'iwconfig ethX rate 11M' before they'll work.

[02:34] <viator> i bought the driver loader a long time ago for it because at that time it wouldnt work with ndiswrapper proper or firmware cutter and stuff
[02:34] <Senesence> brian98: can you be a little more specific plz
[02:34] <cafuego> krazykit: Just the standard latest Dapper kernel should be fine; did you check the wiki page for tweak suggestions?

[02:35] <krazykit> cafuego: yeah.  didn't work when i was using dapper, continued to not work with edgy.  i even pulled in 2.6.18 + devicescape.  none of the native drivers could make it work.
[02:36] <MTecknology> DBO, Are you around at all?
[02:36] <cafuego> krazykit: Odd, oh well :-(
[02:36] <sethk> Sktisangry, I'm not sure what you mean.  Of course the idea is to set the env variable at the command prompt and then build.
[02:36] <cafuego> F_roZeN: Can you switch off that script, please?
[02:36] <DBO> MTecknology, yes but I cant help you right now
[02:36] <F_roZeN> sorry

[02:40] <PacketScan> Spy, use ethernet.. F- USB :p
[02:40] <sethk> Spy, did you add the modules I suggested yesterday?
[02:40] <PacketScan> but to answer likely drivers.
[02:40] <krazykit> cafuego: well, i have an atheros on my desktop.  it's the laptop that's causing the problems
[02:40] <Spy> yes sethk
[02:41] <sethk> Spy, any difference at all in the behavior?
[02:41] <cafuego> krazykit: In theory a netgear WG511T ;-)
[02:41] <krazykit> mine was dlink
[02:41] <JoshIR1> More good news brian, now terminal won't start. :P
[02:41] <Sktisangry> I have all the configure and make things i'm suppose.
[02:41] <Sktisangry> but still nothing.
[02:41] <JoshIR1> It just says starting terminal and disapears
[02:42] <Spy> no sethk, only when y type lsmod i see changes
[02:42] <ScreaminIke> when does 6.10 hit?
[02:42] <sethk> Spy, ok.  usbnet is in the lsmod output?
[02:42] <Spy> yes
[02:42] <JoshIR1> I'm going to reboot i might be back. lol
[02:43] <cafuego> hmm,, herring
[02:43] <ScreaminIke> i mean... i'm installing the "beta"... but where's the official release?
[02:43] <DigitalNinja> How do I install a gnome theme
[02:43] <sethk> Spy, how about other modules that are in use on the live cd?
[02:44] <cafuego> DigitalNinja: Drop the compressed theme file onto the Themes applet.
[02:44] <brian98> DigitalNinja, gnomelook.org I thnk
[02:44] <Sktisangry> I honestly don't know what to do.
[02:44] <Sktisangry> And I'm getting really really annoyed by this.
[02:44] <Sktisangry> i need like explicit instructions on how to compile these things.
[02:44] <DigitalNinja> cafuego: I don't have a "Themes" applet
[02:44] <WhiteNoise> is there any easy way to configure ubuntu to check my root fs, but not my others (vfat etc.)?
[02:44] <WhiteNoise> (on boot)
[02:45] <cafuego> DigitalNinja: System -> Preferences -> Theme
[02:45] <brian98> Sktisangry, wjats up?
[02:45] <Sktisangry> I want to compile last fm
[02:45] <DigitalNinja> brian98: I got a theme from there. I took another look and it's not a gnome theme
[02:45] <Sktisangry> and nicotine+
[02:45] <sethk> WhiteNoise, only if you don't mount them at boot.
[02:45] <sethk> WhiteNoise, actually, you can mount them after the check
[02:45] <Spy> sethk i copied all modules into hdd installation who's missing and appear on live cd lsmod list i did with sudo nano /etc/modules
[02:45] <sethk> WhiteNoise, you can add a mount statement to rc.local
[02:45] <WhiteNoise> sethk, good plan, thanks.
[02:46] <sethk> Spy, hmm, let me think about this again for a bit.
[02:46] <brian98> Sktisangry, theres a binary (finally) http://www.last.fm/tools/downloads/
[02:46] <Senesence> I took the font.pcf and I placed it in /usr/share/fonts/pcf. I tired running both fc-cache -f -v and sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig. I can't find the font in the text editor. What am I doing wrong?
[02:47] <ashzilla> How do I add myself to a group?

[02:57] <SoulBlink> so anybody, default program for files?
[02:57] <fluvvell> brian98, the network manager isn't even showing any networks!!!!!
[02:57] <keegan> When using CDRDAO in the command line when they say <device> do they mean the device of the CDROM?
[02:57] <brian98> then reaadd the encryption

[03:15] <JoshIRL> Now i can install

[03:17] <rixth> What is the factor that apt-get uses to decide whether to prompy a user to yes or no a download?
[03:17] <brian98> JoshIRL, I'm very happy!!!!!!!!!!!1
[03:18] <wickedpuppy> rixth, beats me .... ask the apt-get developers ?
[03:18] <ArrenLex> rix: if you have to install packages you didn't explicitly request, it asks.
[03:18] <ArrenLex> rix: and if you remove any package, it asks.
[03:18] <wickedpuppy> ah i see ...
[03:18] <ArrenLex> rix: unless you've specified to force yes or else force no.
[03:18] <SAM_theman> can i get a Gaim 2.0 on ubutnu ??
[03:19] <JoshIRL> :o
[03:19] <ArrenLex> Yes. Just not from the ubuntu repositories.
[03:19] <ArrenLex> Download it from sourceforge.
[03:19] <rixth> ArrenLex, sweet, good to know!
[03:20] <fluvvell> brian98, reinstall didn't help either.  Why wont it let me double click the network manager applet?
[03:21] <JoshIRL> Brian98, Thank you for your help. I'm gonna finish this install and close irc. I'll talk to you another time maybe. :)
[03:21] <EvanCarroll> I'm just curious when will the 'postgresql' metapackage in the repos point to 8.1
[03:21] <brian98> JoshIRL, :)
[03:21] <brian98> fluvvell, :(
[03:21] <EvanCarroll> having it point to 7.4 is extermly stupid and silly
[03:22] <brian98> bye :)
[03:22] <EvanCarroll> extremely*
[03:22] <wickedpuppy> but there is postgres 8.1 server ...
[03:23] <EvanCarroll> I agree, but the same logic applies nowhere else.
[03:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> where do i find the repository source list again?
[03:23] <Saif> i re-install winxp ..
[03:23] <Saif> so grub loader is no more..

[03:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> sweet
[03:23] <Saif> let me know how can i run ubuntu..
[03:23] <EvanCarroll> wickedpuppy: meta packages should be upgraded and not left pointing to a 4yr old package
[03:23] <wickedpuppy> no no there is postgres 8.1 server in the repos .. should you wish to use it rather than 7.4
[03:23] <EvanCarroll> I do use it.
[03:24] <wickedpuppy> EvanCarroll, some people still use apache 1.3 ...
[03:24] <EvanCarroll> I'm bitching that postgresql doesn't point to 8.1, and many people do think to look for 8.1 when they see the requimenet of postgres
[03:24] <wickedpuppy> no idea about postgres ... i use mysqsl
[03:24] <Saif> sup..
[03:24] <Saif> how can i get back grub loader, i re-install win xp

[03:25] <john> I keep getting this error message when I go to the repository when cheaking for updateds:

[03:25] <john> Go to the repository dialogue to correct the problem.
[03:25] <crimsun> EvanCarroll: note that postgresql was demoted to universe a while back, and we changed dependencies explicitly to postgresql-8.1. If packages aren't depending on the latter package -- and they're known to work with 8.1 -- please file a bug, and we'll fix it.

[03:26] <john> can anyone help me
[03:26] <ArrenLex> Is there a command that lets you ignore people? I hate scrolling down the whole user list.
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> ArrenLex, /ignore nick
[03:26] <mikm[laptop] > ArrenLex /ignore
[03:26] <thekingof7> cmon guys
[03:26] <ArrenLex> /ignore thekingof7
[03:26] <thekingof7> help me out
[03:26] <ArrenLex> Aw, that doesn't work.
[03:26] <thekingof7> plz
[03:26] <crimsun> EvanCarroll: yes. We don't bump things generally (in an effort to align as much with Debian Sid as possible).
[03:27] <sethk> john, there is a syntax error of some sort in your repository config
[03:27] <john> I  added the address for a file - the wrong thing
[03:27] <sethk> John, go to synaptic, bring up the dialog for repositories, find the line in the error message, and delete it.
[03:27] <EvanCarroll> crimsun: that makes sense at least, I would take it one step further and remove the meta package alltogether, as it seems to cause more trouble then it is worth
[03:27] <Sktfeelsdapper> these repositories are CRAP!
[03:27] <john> E: Type 'http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/heroines/mix2005-1.2-src.tar.bz2' is not known on line 33 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:27] <sethk> john, then see if the error goes away.  we'll add it back in later without the syntax error, if this is really the problem.
[03:27] <john> E: The list of sources could not be read.
[03:27] <john> Go to the repository dialogue to correct the problem.
[03:27] <Sktfeelsdapper> the seveaspackages.
[03:28] <Sktfeelsdapper> They are CRAP
[03:28] <john> that is the error
[03:28] <sethk> john,  yes, I know
[03:28] <john> ok - so how do I delete that line?

[03:29] <sethk> john, do you mean that synaptic won't start?
[03:29] <john> ok - got it up

[03:33] <wickedpuppy> JavaDeveloper, i don't think its ubuntu specific .... have you googled ?
[03:33] <sethk> john, where do you see something that says installation media?

[03:36] <fluvvell> brian98, if you're still there: I can't change the name of the applet, though not sure why you would.  I've been on the ubuntu wireless pages and tried a few things but no breakthrough

[03:37] <Omar> Hello everybody I am moving some files from a mounted disk (sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubunturoot) to a machine in my net, but when I try to erase a file in the fisrt disk I mean hda1, I got a msg of lack of permission, how can I mounted it with permissions, pls
[03:37] <Sktfeelsdapper> i've put these in my repository list 3 times now, and none of them can either be found or updated.
[03:37] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, some reason you feel obligated to repeat that several times?

[03:37] <Sktfeelsdapper> well i just find it funny that it's on the stupid website, yet.
[03:37] <omegacat> can anybody tell me how to make X stop
[03:37] <omegacat> ?
[03:37] <john> seekth, synaptic package manager -- settings -- repositorys [then the first tab is installation media] 
[03:37] <sethk> Omar, it means file level permissions, not mount permissions
[03:37] <Sktfeelsdapper> Oh wait a minute they aren't really there!
[03:37] <wickedpuppy> Thunga, i tried 5 beta long time ago ...
[03:38] <fluvvell> omegacat: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[03:38] <sethk> Omar, to double check that, use the mount command in a terminal (no arguments)
[03:38] <Sktfeelsdapper> This is load of horse crap. The first minute I get my hands on a Windows Disc I'm going back.
[03:38] <ArrenLex> omega: "sudo killall gdm"
[03:38] <sethk> Omar, it will show your mounts and whether they are mounted read only or read write
[03:38] <omegacat> fluvvell I can't get to a terminal
[03:38] <Sktfeelsdapper> This is retarded all the stupid crap you have to do.
[03:38] <ArrenLex> omega: or ctrl+alt+backspace to restart it.
[03:38] <sethk> Omar, you probably need to delete the files as root
[03:38] <Sktfeelsdapper> I'm so frustrated my eye is twitching.
[03:38] <fluvvell> omegacat: ctrl-alt-f3  ?
[03:38] <ArrenLex> Skt: what's the problem?
[03:38] <omegacat> I'm hung at nothing but a window saying my greeter application has crashed ands attemting to use another
[03:38] <Thunga> wockedpuppy I'm trying to register a SJSAS but it dowsent work... it closes the window and doesent insert the new server...
[03:38] <Sktfeelsdapper> This isn't "linux for humans"
[03:39] <fluvvell> omegacat: then ctrl-alt-f7 to return to X
[03:39] <Sktfeelsdapper> HA LINUX FOR HUMANS
[03:39] <omegacat> thx fluvvell
[03:39] <ryctor> it is
[03:39] <ArrenLex> Skt: I happen to be human, and I happen to be using ubuntu. Your logic doesn't hold.
[03:39] <lostboyz> hi i was wondering if there is a way to install flash and java for amd 64 without using a 32 bit firefox
[03:39] <ArrenLex> At least... I was human last time I checked.
[03:39] <omegacat> cool, thanks, i think my update bombed again.
[03:39] <Sktfeelsdapper> The problem is, is that I"m having the most impossible frustrating time in the world and nobody can help me.
[03:39] <FunnyLookinHat> Sktfeelsdapper, wow, you must think you are the first person to come in here and bash.  You're clever.
[03:39] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: well it's not for everyone <shrug>  it's ok if you go back to windows, really!
[03:39] <wickedpuppy> Thunga, file a bug in java/netbeans 5 forums ? i dont think we have the dev here
[03:39] <ArrenLex> lostboyz: the short answer: no.
[03:39] <ArrenLex> the long answer? ...no.
[03:39] <Sktfeelsdapper> What's so "good" about ubuntu? Seriously.
[03:39] <ArrenLex> Skt: It's free.
[03:39] <WhiteNoise> OK - I've installed wine several times, and several versions, but in each all text is missing from all apps. (including notepad, winecfg, etc.)
[03:39] <ryctor> man. stop crying and spell the problem
[03:40] <lostboyz> ArrenLex is your name Arren?
[03:40] <Omar> I thougt you could mount giving permissions, look my folder in the net was mounted like this : sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.20/trc /home/ubuntu/New -o urd=ubuntu, and there I can erase , move everything
[03:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> You guys don't have good sound support, half of everyone can't get one thing or the other working because of some stupid kernel problem.
[03:40] <Thunga> wickedpuppy thanks... i gonna look for bugs in there
[03:40] <john> sethk, I found that file sources.list
[03:40] <ArrenLex> lost: Not my real name. =P You may, however, call me Arren.
[03:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> Your list of repositories that are ON YOUR WEBSITE are crap.
[03:40] <lostboyz> oh cool ArrenLex my name is Ahren
[03:40] <Omar> sethk:  I thougt you could mount giving permissions, look my folder in the net was mounted like this : sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.20/trc /home/ubuntu/New -o urd=ubuntu, and there I can erase , move everything
[03:40] <ryctor> dude, you dont have abviously no idea what you are talking about
[03:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> You give NO support for compiling or anything of the matter.
[03:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> No really, I do.
[03:40] <sethk> Omar, oh, you didn't tell me it's a windows mount
[03:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> I've been busting my hump trying to figure this out for the past week.
[03:40] <fluvvell> Sktfeelsdapper, if you take this irc channel as an example you're looking in the wrong place
[03:41] <john> when I edit it with text editor it tells me that I do not have permission to save it.  What should I do?
[03:41] <zenwhen-lt> Sktfeelsdapper, please stop trolling.
[03:41] <sethk> Omar, wait, you said it isn't a windows mount
[03:41] <lostboyz> ArrenLex what is your real name?
[03:41] <ryctor> I compile stuff all the time
[03:41] <Sktfeelsdapper> I'm not trolling.
[03:41] <ArrenLex> Alex.
[03:41] <david> Im having problems being able to write to my xp partition, can someone please help, my fstab is at the paste bin, its the default one that was there in the beginning
[03:41] <john> sethk, when I edit it with text editor it tells me that I do not have permission to save it.  What should I do?
[03:41] <lostboyz> oh hehe
[03:41] <lostboyz> cool
[03:41] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: what do you mean no support for compiling?
[03:41] <Sktfeelsdapper> I've been in here asking questions that NEVER GET ANSWERED.
[03:41] <zenwhen-lt> You are quite excited then.
[03:41] <Abst> !patience
[03:41] <sethk> Omar, it is true that you can mount something read only or read write.  What I said is that your particular problem isn't caused by a read only mount.  and I gave you a way to verify this.
[03:41] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[03:41] <ryctor> maybe is your attitude
[03:41] <Abst> !Language
[03:41] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:41] <Sktfeelsdapper> People tell me I'm an idiot when I'm suppose to go to some directory and they tell me I don't know where I am.
[03:41] <zenwhen-lt> Perhaps you should calm down and then return for some sort of resolution.
[03:41] <sethk> john, you'll have to use sudo
[03:41] <wickedpuppy> david, whats the link of the pastebin ?
[03:41] <john> ok
[03:42] <fluvvell> Sktfeelsdapper, do you have ubuntu installed?
[03:42] <sethk> john,  as in, instead of   myeditor xyz     you do     sudo myeditor xyz
[03:42] <Sktfeelsdapper> ryctor, I didn't ask you for your 2 cents. it might break you.
[03:42] <Omar> sethk: ok, but tell me how to move, copy and erased from root so
[03:42] <Sktfeelsdapper> YES
[03:42] <Sktfeelsdapper> I am currently running ubuntu 6.06
[03:42] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: do you know anything about programming? the reason i ask is people who don't frequently have a LOT of difficulty with compiling
[03:42] <sethk> Omar, use sudo, as in:     sudo rm whatever
[03:42] <zenwhen-lt> I hear microsoft Windows has support for the things that you are trying to get working, if that helps.
[03:42] <ryctor> Man, linux is a UNIX like OS so maybe you should read some manuals on basics in unix, if you know how to read, that is
[03:42] <ArrenLex> Omar: to mount using permissions, specify umask=xxx as an option, where xxx = octal from 000-777 which are inverse of chmod numbers (i.e. full permissions on the partition is a umask of 000)
[03:42] <Omar> sethk: :( but I don-t know , give an example to move and to copy pls
[03:43] <david> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25453/ sorry about that
[03:43] <Sktfeelsdapper> Ryctor, you are trying to be mature yet you are resorting to jokes about my intelligence.
[03:43] <Sktfeelsdapper> I guess you have to do something to make yourself happy.
[03:43] <crimsun> Sktfeelsdapper: / ryctor: quit it, ok?
[03:43] <john> sethk, it says command not found when I type in " sudo myeditor xyz"
[03:43] <Sktfeelsdapper> I have qmake, I have cvs I have everything I need to compile.
[03:43] <Sktfeelsdapper> And yet I'm not one step closer to compiling then I ever was before.
[03:43] <Sktfeelsdapper> None of the programs I want or even try work for me.
[03:43] <wickedpuppy> david, pls put my nick in front so i know you are talking to me ... and is it line 3 ?
[03:43] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: actually, qmake and cvs don't compile anything, you need gcc too :)
[03:43] <ryctor> you dont sound intelligent to me
[03:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> I do have gcc!
[03:44] <fluvvell> Sktfeelsdapper, you have build-essentials?
[03:44] <SinnerG> I jut removed debian from my server and installed ubuntu dapper :)
[03:44] <Omar> Arrenlex: thanks but I don-t understand, this is my line sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubunturoot what should I change
[03:44] <Madpilot> ryctor, last warning - being rude doesn't help...
[03:44] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: you're well on your way then :)
[03:44] <david> hda1 and hdb2
[03:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> I guess we can share the sediments then, ryctor.
[03:44] <SinnerG> so I guess I'll stick around here ;)
[03:44] <sethk> john, by "myeditor" I meant whatever editor you are using to edit the file.
[03:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> I have gcc build-essentials
[03:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> python
[03:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> everything
[03:44] <sethk> john, you didn't tell me that, so I couldn't give you the literal command.
[03:44] <SinnerG> I'm working on a bash script to install stuff (mostly from source)
[03:44] <david> wickedpuppy hda1 and hdb2
[03:44] <zenwhen-lt> Sktfeelsdapper, I compiled some packages from svn this morning. I think the problem here is not the lack of tools, but your lack of ability. If you would actually ask for help instead of whining, perhaps things might get done.
[03:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> zenwhen, i have asked several times.
[03:45] <zenwhen-lt> How about you ask again
[03:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> and i get people like sethk who acts like I'm a complete retard and don't know where I'm going.
[03:45] <zenwhen-lt> No one wants to help you now
[03:45] <david> wickedpuppy: yes 3 and 5
[03:45] <zenwhen-lt> your attitude ensured that
[03:45] <ArrenLex> sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubunturoot -o umask=000
[03:45] <fluvvell> Sktfeelsdapper, it depends who's around and what questions you ask
[03:45] <ryctor> I cant believ I am the one being rude
[03:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> You are.
[03:45] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, when did I say anything that implied you are a complete retard?
[03:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> "Are you sure you are in the right place?"
[03:45] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: just ask one more time about your compile problem
[03:45] <adEe> how do i make my system compile my kernel with gcc-3.4 instead 3.3?
[03:45] <wickedpuppy> david, why rw then , ? if there is nothing after them ... pls remove the ,
[03:45] <crimsun> argh, can you guys please kill the bickering?
[03:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> Uh yah dude, I'm looking directly at my command line
[03:45] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, I didn't say anything at all unfriendly or impropper or whatever
[03:46] <Abst> I doubt it, you are looking at irc.
[03:46] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, I didn't say "are you sure you are in the right place".
[03:46] <^Ocean^> is edgy > than dapper ?
[03:46] <john> sethk, sorry.  What then do I type into console to get to the source.list?
[03:46] <ryctor> good luck then
[03:46] <keegan> This is a help channel not a crybaby channel
[03:46] <Sktfeelsdapper> You acted like I didn't know where I where I was in my own home directory.
[03:46] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, although, if I had, it wouldn't be an insulting answer.
[03:46] <mister_roboto> ^Ocean^: it's the next version, yes
[03:46] <sethk> john, the file is in /etc/apt
[03:46] <Abst> ^Ocean^: Edgy > dapper > Hoary > warty
[03:46] <Madpilot> ^Ocean^, it's the development version - it'll be released in about three weeks
[03:46] <^Ocean^> so then i wanna be upgradeing to edgy correct ?
[03:46] <^Ocean^> okay
[03:46] <Sktfeelsdapper> Do you ubuntu guys have it all together, seriously? It's a task to get sound to work, you can't run any program without "fixing" something.
[03:46] <sethk> john, if you are using vi, for example, you would say:   sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.lst
[03:46] <Madpilot> ^Ocean^, maybe - it's still in beta testing
[03:46] <Sktfeelsdapper> What's so great about it? Wow it's free.
[03:47] <mister_roboto> ^Ocean^: it's not "production" yet but if you're ok with that, sure! i'm running it
[03:47] <david> wicked puppy, will that fix that prolem?
[03:47] <Sktfeelsdapper> You can also go on soulseek or bearshare and download windows "for free"
[03:47] <wenko> ...go awy
[03:47] <zenwhen-lt> Sktfeelsdapper, stop trolling for help.
[03:47] <Abst> Sktfeelsdapper: If you can't see whats so great about it, go home, back to windows, and get lost. Please.
[03:47] <Madpilot> Sktfeelsdapper, personally, I"ve never had any sound problems, and hardly ever have to fix something just to run an app...
[03:47] <ArrenLex> Skt: it's hard to support hardware when the manufacturers don't help you. Yeah, some things don't work. No one made you use Linux! Feel free to go back to Windows.
[03:47] <ryctor> thai is the kind of comment that irritates me and if I reply, I am rude
[03:47] <wickedpuppy> david, we test things as we go along ... pls fix it and see if you still have problems
[03:47] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, windows is wonderful, I think you should stop denying yourself the advantages of using it.

[03:48] <ryctor> I insulted you?

[03:48] <tobiasu> there are 853 people in here and nobody who kicks obvious trolls?
[03:48] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: you're not asking your question, just bitching
[03:48] <ryctor> someone, get rid of this guy
[03:48] <zenwhen-lt> are any of them going to take action?
[03:48] <wickedpuppy> sethk, can you ask him to use nautilus to go to that dir and use gedit ?
[03:48] <Sktfeelsdapper> Ok. Here's the question.
[03:48] <Sktfeelsdapper> How do I compile.
[03:48] <Sktfeelsdapper> Oh wait.
[03:48] <Abst> @pity Sktfeelsdapper
[03:48] <Sktfeelsdapper> Nobody can tell me.
[03:48] <sethk> wickedpuppy, sure, that's a good choice.
[03:48] <ArrenLex> ./configure && make
[03:48] <keegan> you have to download build-essential
[03:48] <ryctor> first
[03:48] <Madpilot> tobiasu, it's a matter of giving them enough rope. skt almost has enough
[03:48] <SinnerG> I'm back on windows atm, but once I set my heart to it, and got sound close to the same 'effect' as in windows (aka I could mix sounds from every app together, even when they use other soundmanagers) =)
[03:48] <Sktfeelsdapper> that doesn't work.
[03:48] <mister_roboto> gcc <myfile>
[03:49] <SinnerG> forgot how tho..
[03:49] <Sktfeelsdapper> I HAVE BUILD ESTENTIALS
[03:49] <Abst> I HAVE BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF ENGLISH!
[03:49] <ArrenLex> Skt: what happens if you run that?
[03:49] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, that's interesting, because there is no build essentials.
[03:49] <ryctor> install linux headers
[03:49] <ArrenLex> I HAVE A SHIFT KEY!
[03:49] <crimsun> 'build-essential', rather.
[03:49] <Madpilot> Sktfeelsdapper, better question: why do you need to compile stuff? What do you need that isn't in the repos already?
[03:49] <Sktfeelsdapper> See what I mean?
[03:49] <ryctor> and rename the file after uncompresing it as linux
[03:49] <john> sethk, I put in that command and I am not sure what to do
[03:49] <Sktfeelsdapper> I need last fm for one, and since I apparently can't get it to do it on it's own.
[03:49] <ArrenLex> skt: I asked you what error it gave you, and you didn't answer.
[03:49] <Sktfeelsdapper> I need nicotine.
[03:49] <Abst> Go then
[03:49] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: depends on what you're trying to do. most oss packages have a configure script and you just "configure && make && sudo make instal l"
[03:49] <Abst> We wo't mind.
[03:49] <ryctor> if you verify the versions of kernel and headers, and do as I say, you will succed
[03:50] <Sktfeelsdapper> That doesn't work.
[03:50] <wickedpuppy> we sounds like microsoft hotline ...
[03:50] <crimsun> !info lastfm
[03:50] <ubotu> Package lastfm does not exist in any distro I know
[03:50] <crimsun> !info lastfm edgy
[03:50] <Madpilot> Sktfeelsdapper, nicotine is in the Universe repo
[03:50] <ubotu> lastfm: an audio player for last.fm personalized radio. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.90-3 (edgy), package size 476 kB, installed size 1080 kB
[03:50] <ArrenLex> skt: it doesn't work with what error?
[03:50] <Sktfeelsdapper> Yah version like 1.0
[03:50] <Sktfeelsdapper> Hold on, let me do it again real quick.
[03:50] <Omar> Arrenlex: thanks but I don-t understand, this is my line sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubunturoot what should I change
[03:50] <mister_roboto> Sktfeelsdapper: do what people are telling you and tell them the EXACT error if you get one
[03:50] <ArrenLex> Omar: sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubunturoot -o umask=000
[03:50] <keegan> Sktfeelsdapper: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196835&highlight=Nicotine
[03:51] <ArrenLex> Omar: does that not work?
[03:51] <keegan> Its a tutorial to build nicotine+
[03:51] <keegan> Tada!
[03:52] <Sktfeelsdapper> Actually it's a tutorial to build the tray-icon thing.
[03:52] <Omar> Arrenlex: I got a error : mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1,
[03:52] <keegan> No its not
[03:52] <Sktfeelsdapper> I've seen that thing 20 times.
[03:52] <keegan> You need to read
[03:52] <john> sethk, using terminal what should I type in to correct the problem pn line 33 of source.list?
[03:52] <Sktfeelsdapper> No no, it is.
[03:52] <ArrenLex> Omar: are you sure /dev/hda1 is an ext3 partition, then? Are you trying with the -t key or without it?
[03:52] <Sktfeelsdapper> That shows you how to untar it.
[03:52] <Sktfeelsdapper> And how to start it.
[03:52] <sethk> john, I would try just removing line 33.  (after backing up the file, of course)
[03:52] <Madpilot> !enter
[03:52] <Sktfeelsdapper> No building it.
[03:52] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[03:52] <^Ocean^> is there any big notacible diferances between edgy and dapper ?
[03:52] <sethk> john, if that works, then we'll take a look at the line, see what's wrong, and put it back.
[03:52] <Abst> Alot of repo differences
[03:53] <john> sethk, how do I remove the line using terminal?
[03:53] <Abst> ^Ocean^: Join #ubuntu+1
[03:53] <Omar> Arrenlex: I am using it I mount and unmounted it with this : sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt/ubunturoot
[03:53] <sethk> ^Ocean^, operationally, no.
[03:53] <Madpilot> ^Ocean^, lots of version updates, some graphical updates
[03:53] <keegan> Its a python program so you just need to run it by typing ./nicotine
[03:53] <dougsko> ^Ocean^: edgy will have broken stuff, most likely
[03:53] <ArrenLex> Sktfeelsdapper: it seems to me to already be compiled. You just have to run it. Just like on Windows.
[03:53] <keegan> Then make a launcher for it and bam bleeding edge nicotine
[03:53] <Sktfeelsdapper> Yes but can't you build it so you don't have to type in ./nicotine?
[03:53] <wickedpuppy> john, if you are using nano , backspace will do it ... if you are using vi , go to that line and press "dd"
[03:53] <sethk> john, each editor has a different command for deletion.  If you are using nano, you can just put your cursor on the first character of the line and use the delete key.
[03:53] <Sktfeelsdapper> The launcher crap doesn't work.
[03:53] <keegan> Make a launcher so you don't have to type ./nicotine
[03:54] <ArrenLex> Skt: "./nicotine" just says RUN NICOTINE just like double-clicking on the program in your dekstop does.
[03:54] <Sktfeelsdapper> I tried that alright, it does not work.
[03:54] <david> wicekd puppy, it still doesn't have write permissions
[03:54] <sethk> nano, or as wicketpuppy said putting the cursor on the next line and using backspace
[03:54] <ArrenLex> Skt: "does not work" means what error?
[03:54] <john> sethk, I am using terminal - what command do I put in?
[03:54] <Sktfeelsdapper> As in it loads up the FILE I used to MAKE the launcer.
[03:54] <mike__> Help, I can't connect to my server using Internal IP 192.168.x.x only using External IP adress, all other computers(Windows, MacOS, Linux) on network can connect to server, any ideas?
[03:54] <Sktfeelsdapper> launcher.
[03:54] <wickedpuppy> david, type wick and press tab .. that will spell my nick wickedpuppy ... and what did you do after saving the file ?
[03:54] <keegan> did you do /path/to/file/./nicotine
[03:54] <ArrenLex> /info Omar
[03:54] <Sktfeelsdapper> Sure did.
[03:55] <ArrenLex> Dammit!
[03:55] <JoshIRL> Can someone help me with media?
[03:55] <ArrenLex> Stupid commands.
[03:55] <keegan> Do it open if you just do ./nicotine?
[03:55] <david> wickedpuppy: rebooted my system
[03:55] <Sktfeelsdapper> I haven't tried that but I'm sure it won't.
[03:55] <anto9us> john, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:55] <wickedpuppy> david, are they mounted ? type mount in command line
[03:55] <thewheat> !mac
[03:55] <ArrenLex> Omar: what does it tell you if you try the command I gave you?
[03:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:55] <Phuzion> How do I upgrade from 5.04 to latest?
[03:56] <keegan> When you are in the directory and you type ./nicotine does it load up?
[03:56] <finalbeta> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyEft/Beta
[03:56] <john> THANKYOU
[03:56] <JoshIRL> I'm trying to play a .avi movie in the default application, which is movie player. It sais You don't not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the neccesary plugins. Where do i get the plugins?
[03:56] <Sktfeelsdapper> MP{E
[03:56] <anto9us> john, you're welcome :)
[03:56] <Sktfeelsdapper> Nope. Launcher doesn't work.
[03:56] <HellDragon> bon je doit aller passer l'aspirateur dans la piscine

[03:56] <wickedpuppy> JoshIRL, get vlc player .. it will play most formats
[03:56] <Madpilot> !fr
[03:56] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[03:56] <HellDragon> channel tab is evl :(
[03:56] <JoshIRL> I tried, i don't get the instructions to download it lol
[03:56] <HellDragon> evil*
[03:56] <JoshIRL> I'm new to linux
[03:57] <david> wickedpuppy: typing mount indicates that it is mounted with rw but i can't copy filles to my ntfs or fat32 partitions
[03:57] <wickedpuppy> JoshIRL, go to synaptic and find it there
[03:57] <JoshIRL> ok
[03:57] <Sktfeelsdapper> nope that doesn't work either.
[03:57] <john> GOT ANOTHER PROBLEM lol
[03:57] <SAM_theman> you guys how iremove xgl
[03:57] <wickedpuppy> david, use sudo ?
[03:57] <wickedpuppy> john, no caps pls
[03:57] <keegan> Do you have the depencies for it?
[03:57] <john> lol - sorry
[03:58] <Phuzion> I want to upgrade from 5.04 to the latest stable version, how do I go about doing so?
[03:58] <fluvvell> how do I tell network manager to re-scan for wireless networks?
[03:58] <john> no - I just deleted the problem line
[03:58] <wickedpuppy> !upgrade
[03:58] <ubotu> Upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:58] <JoshIRL> Wicked_Puppy: How do i 'find it in there" ? :x
[03:58] <david> wickedpuppy no, i didn't try sudo cp, is that what you mean?
[03:58] <wickedpuppy> JoshIRL, there is a search button
[03:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> Still nothing.
[03:58] <wickedpuppy> david, yes ... you didn't mount them with user option
[03:59] <Sktfeelsdapper> This is a load of...
[03:59] <Sktfeelsdapper> Seriously.
[03:59] <wickedpuppy> so i am thinking it is mounted as root
[03:59] <JoshIRL> Ah, good to see i'm completely blind :D
[03:59] <wickedpuppy> JoshIRL, and i suppose you got universe/multiverse repos ?
[03:59] <david> wickedpuppy:  should i try putting user rw for my options?
[03:59] <JoshIRL> :|
[03:59] <minerale> I am trying to compile the ratpoison pakcage, and ./configure tells me it can't find the "X11 headers and libs" -- anyone know the package for those ?
[04:00] <wickedpuppy> david, yes i would says yes ... put user,rw
[04:00] <keegan> I got Nicotine+ up and running
[04:00] <keegan> python-gtk2 python-pyvorbis
[04:00] <john> I have here the .tar.bz2 package for a movie editor - who can tell me how to install it?
[04:00] <keegan> you install both of those?
[04:00] <Sktfeelsdapper> sure did
[04:00] <wickedpuppy> john, is that movie editor not in the repo ?
[04:00] <anto9us> john, is it not one that's in the repositories?
[04:00] <mike__> Help, I can't connect to my server using Internal IP 192.168.x.x only using External IP adress from my ubuntu 06 computer, all other computers(Windows, MacOS, Linux) on network can connect to server, any ideas?
[04:00] <keegan> I dunno know then man...I'm stuck
[04:00] <Phuzion> I am not using a desktop manager, do I still need to have one installed in order to upgrade from 5.10 to 6.06?
[04:00] <wickedpuppy> i think we wont want to go into compiling stuff again
[04:00] <Sktfeelsdapper> I can get it up and running that's not the problem, is it possible to compile it into an actual program i don't have to go to the command line to use?
[04:00] <keegan> Wait 3 more weeks and the new Nicotine will be in the edgy repos
[04:01] <john> no, its not, it is calledcinelerra
[04:01] <sethk> john, start by extracting the files from the tar archive
[04:01] <ArrenLex> Skt: you don't have to go into the command line to use it. Make a shortcut to your desktop.
[04:01] <anto9us> mike__, do the other clients have the same numbering scheme and subnet mask? Can you ping the server?
[04:01] <john> done
[04:02] <sethk> john, ok, change to the directory where you just extracted the files
[04:02] <john> before I do that - do you recomend a different program than terminal for those comands?
[04:03] <wickedpuppy> john, nautilus ?
[04:03] <wickedpuppy> :P
[04:03] <sethk> john, for compiling, no
[04:03] <sethk> john, if you aren't comfortable with using the command line, you probably don't want to install from source.
[04:04] <john> do I have any other option for those types of installations?
[04:04] <SinnerG> nice, atm I got a script that installs webmin, install quota (not enabled it yet), wget apache 2.0* and install it AND generate a self signed certificate =)
[04:04] <SinnerG> first bash script I ever make :p
[04:04] <mike__> anto9us: Yes i can ping it, and connect fine too it using the external IP or the doman name i got pointing to my external IP, but not the internal. Yes the other computers have the same schme i think..
[04:04] <Hoovey> How do I force ubuntu into 1280x1024?
[04:04] <sethk> john, I'm not sure what other option might exist.  what are you thinking might exist?
[04:05] <john> I double click on it and it does it for me?
[04:05] <sethk> SinnerG, good.  actually it's a korn shell script.  bash is compatible with korn shell syntax.
[04:05] <SinnerG> ow ok :)
[04:05] <sethk> john, in this context that makes no sense.
[04:05] <s0n1> hi
[04:05] <s0n1> why i change init screen ubuntu edgy eft ?
[04:05] <john> sethk, is debian similar to ubuntu
[04:06] <RawSewage> is there any way to fix this annoyance:  right-clicking something usually requires some twitch skill, because when you right-click, it usually blinks on and off really fast, so you have to try it multiple times, or hold down the right-click and be tricky
[04:06] <RawSewage> [02:03]  <RawSewage> does that make sense
[04:06] <SinnerG> I'm working on a hosting 'backend' and when for example a server dies, I need a fast way to reinstall another server with everything I need : thats why I started on this script :)
[04:06] <john> sethk, ?
[04:06] <mike__> anto9us: I have dual bot, and when i bot up the windows i can connect to the server via internal IP 192.168.x.x . Every computer on the network uses DHCP
[04:06] <xplic1t> john, yes
[04:06] <Hoovey> how do i like, force ubuntu into 1280x1024?
[04:06] <anto9us> mike__, would be an idea checking and verifying your setup against something that's known to work, also check firewall on server for what ranges it allows and whether you're in it
[04:06] <xplic1t> ubuntu is derived from debian
[04:07] <JoshIRL> I downloaded vlc and installed it, I can't find it. lol
[04:07] <anto9us> mike__, what service are you trying to connect to? Samba?
[04:07] <mike__> anto9us: http, samba, ftp, ssh
[04:08] <JoshIRL> oo nvm
[04:08] <anto9us> mike__, and nothing works?
[04:08] <JoshIRL> How do you change the default application to open certain formats with?
[04:08] <JoshIRL> Such as avi, mpg, whatever.
[04:08] <Madpilot> ubotu, tell Hoovey about fixres
[04:09] <Madpilot> JoshIRL, right click on a .avi file, choose "Properties" then the Open With... tab
[04:09] <mike__> anto9us: no works... only ping, all works via example.mydoman.com or external IP, i have the same ipadress in windows and everything works there
[04:09] <sethk> john, they are both linux distributions.  all linux distributions are essentially similar
[04:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[04:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> That's what I'm getting.
[04:09] <anto9us> mike__, sorry to go for the obvious but have you verified the ip address of the server?
[04:10] <john> sethk, which version of liux do you recomend for gaming?
[04:10] <Madpilot> Sktfeelsdapper, with what *exact* command?
[04:10] <john> sethk, linux?
[04:10] <Sktfeelsdapper> make
[04:10] <Sktfeelsdapper> JUST make.
[04:10] <Sktfeelsdapper> i've read man make
[04:10] <Sktfeelsdapper> that's not even a help
[04:10] <zenwhen-lt> Sktfeelsdapper, did you run ./configure ?
[04:10] <mike__> anto9us: Don't be =)  Yes i have, i can ping it and ssh it from and other ubuntu machine next to me
[04:11] <mike1980> on install i am getting error VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block(8,3) can anyone help please
[04:11] <Sktfeelsdapper> that says no such file or directory
[04:11] <zenwhen-lt> you are in the right dir?
[04:11] <zenwhen-lt> what are you compiling?
[04:11] <zenwhen-lt> ill download and compile it
[04:11] <mcdonaldsguy> my ethernet card is accumulating rx errors.. I've checked my duplex and speed settings, and they look ok, and dmesg doesn't show any strange output.. is there any utility or place I should I look to get more debug info?
[04:11] <anto9us> mike__, does route command show same output on both those machines?
[04:12] <Sktfeelsdapper> nicotine+
[04:12] <sethk> john, sorry, I don't game so I have no opinion
[04:12] <Sktfeelsdapper> is there or is there not a way to make it into a program that you can put on the desktop?
[04:12] <RawSewage> Does anyone have a problem where:  you right-click something, and you see the right-click menu for a brief instant before it disappears
[04:12] <Sktfeelsdapper> without having to go to the command line?
[04:13] <mike1980> on install i am getting error VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block(8,3) can anyone help please
[04:13] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, you've been told not only that it's possible, but exactly how to do it, at least 10 times.  So please stop trolling.
[04:13] <mike__> anto9us: Yes, this is getting to me :/  It has worked on this computer. Just stoped today... have no clue
[04:13] <nikon> where can i get help on networking between windows and linux? i have googled many times and haven't found any useful links
[04:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> I'm not trolling and nobody has told me anything accept that they can do it some mysterious way and I can't!
[04:14] <john> Does anyone have any knowledge on the different linux builds and thus can recomend a build for gaming and high proformance work?
[04:14] <Dr_willis> nikon,  havent read the 'using samba book' thats aviliable online eh? :P
[04:14] <cafuego> nikon: google for 'samba'.
[04:14] <rpedro> Sktfeelsdapper: nicotine+ is a python program
[04:14] <nikon> thnxs
[04:14] <nikon> ill try that
[04:14] <anto9us> mike__, I'll get a cup of tea and let you know if I come up with any more ideas
[04:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> so in other words you can't?
[04:14] <rpedro> Sktfeelsdapper: so, no need to compile it, just create a desktop shortcut
[04:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> but i tried that.
[04:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> and it DOESNT work.
[04:14] <Dr_willis> nikon,  :) in short - install samba, setup a samba password for the linux users with 'sudo smbpasswd -a LINUXUSER' restart the samba servers,,  have windows try to connect.
[04:14] <zenwhen-lt> Sktfeelsdapper, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196835
[04:14] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, works for me
[04:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> it's in /home/skt/nicotine+-1.2.51/
[04:14] <zenwhen-lt> did you try that
[04:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> Yes I have.
[04:15] <zenwhen-lt> where did it fail
[04:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> WHen I click it.
[04:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> On the desktop
[04:15] <mike__> anto9us: Thanks =)  This is so strange
[04:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> It doesn't do anything.
[04:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> It just sits there.
[04:15] <zenwhen-lt> oh
[04:15] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, yesterday, when I was working with you, when you finally admitted that you had the directory name wrong, you had the path differently.  Of course you may have been wrong then, or you may be wrong now, or both.
[04:15] <rixth> ***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build libipoddevice   were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden   macros were found.  Perhaps you need to adjust your   ACLOCAL_FLAGS? <<<<<<< what am I missing?
[04:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> so it would be /home/skt/nicotine+-1.2.5.1/./nicotine
[04:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> am i right?
[04:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> yes but since then I know where i'm at, seth.
[04:16] <anto9us> mike__, does ssh localhost work?
[04:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> and i know where I put it.
[04:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> and i can get to it now.
[04:16] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, ok, you can write a line on the command line that starts the program?
[04:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> yes
[04:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> but i want to use the desktop.
[04:16] <anto9us> mike__, that's assuming you're running local ssh server
[04:16] <Phocion> hey all....I just partitioned a drive in fdisk with an FS of "Linux" - is this ext3 by default?
[04:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> i want to make a launcher for it.
[04:16] <mike__> anto9us: You mean: ssh localhost on the internal server or my defect ubuntu
[04:16] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, put that line into the command field in the launcher
[04:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> i have!
[04:17] <Phocion> cuz "mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb /mnt/point" doesn't work
[04:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> it doesn't work!
[04:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> is there suppose to be a space between / ./?
[04:17] <anto9us> mike__, defect machine, you've tested the server from another client, yes?
[04:17] <SOjourner> hello, whenever i try to open GAIM or Mozilla firefox it automatically crashes back to my desktop, can anyone help?
[04:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> do i have to put skt@skt?
[04:17] <Dr_willis> mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb  <-- is wrong.  try hdb1 hdb2 hdb4 ect....
[04:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> or root or anything?
[04:17] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, there shouldn't be anything on that line that has the form   / ./      not with a space, and not without one.
[04:17] <Phocion> ooo 1 sec
[04:17] <mike__> anto9us: Yes, just started the sshd and ssh localhost sucess
[04:18] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, perhaps you should tell us the line you are typing.
[04:18] <SOjourner> hello, whenever i try to open GAIM or Mozilla firefox it automatically crashes back to my desktop, can anyone help?
[04:18] <Dr_willis> Phocion,  after fdisking - you need to Format the drive... plux the mount point has to exist befor you mount.
[04:18] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, if you have a line that works at the command prompt, _paste_ it into the launcher
[04:18] <anto9us> mike__, tried a different port on the hub/switch?
[04:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> home/skt
[04:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> it won't let me show you the line!
[04:18] <nathanael> Anyone running in Parallels right now?
[04:19] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, it won't let you.  what won't let you?
[04:19] <Phocion> ok cool got it
[04:19] <Phocion> mount -t auto /dev/hdb1 /mnt/media
[04:19] <Phocion> works
[04:19] <Sktfeelsdapper> koversation
[04:19] <Sktfeelsdapper> it won't le me type in what i want to show you
[04:19] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, then put it on the paste site, and give us the url to it.
[04:19] <Sktfeelsdapper> what's the paste site?
[04:20] <Sktfeelsdapper> !pastebin
[04:20] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:20] <sethk> Sktfeelsdapper, although very likely all you have to do is put a few spaces at the beginning so it doesn't think you are running an IRC command
[04:20] <jdrake> Is there a way to boot the install cdrom, but have it get everything from a server rather than from the cd?
[04:20] <anto9us> mike__, don't forget to 'exit' your ssh session
[04:20] <Sktfeelsdapper> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25458/
[04:20] <Sktfeelsdapper> THAT is what I'm putting in.
[04:20] <mike__> anto9us: Yes, no such luck :/
[04:20] <THX-1138> !install
[04:20] <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
[04:21] <Sktfeelsdapper> do i have to have the terminal up to run the launcher?
[04:21] <anto9us> mike__, check the hosts file in the other client machine and compare
[04:21] <RawSewage> Does anyone have a problem where:  you right-click something, and you see the right-click menu for a brief instant before it disappears
[04:22] <Arafangion> RawSewage: No, unless you're right-clicking twice.
[04:22] <SOjourner> hello, can anyone help me with my programs terminating shortly after they open??
[04:22] <Sktfeelsdapper> Did you get that paste thing?
[04:22] <RawSewage> Arafangion, ok ty
[04:22] <lostboyz> whenever i send my webcam in amsn it says canceled why can't i send it? my cam is working and i see my face in camorama and everything
[04:22] <Zarephath> Hey anyone know about a program called maestro for viewing nasa pictures?
[04:22] <jdrake> I see the option to do a network boot using etherboot and tftp, that is not what I want. The only thing I have seen reference to is making 'stage 1'  fail, for it to give you a list of bot options - I do not know how to ensure this.
[04:23] <SOjourner> hello, can anyone help me with my programs terminating shortly after they open??
[04:23] <mike__> anto9us: The, same
[04:23] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: You might as well paste one or two liners here.
[04:23] <mike__> anto9us: The same.
[04:23] <slopz[away] > SOjourner, you should run them from terminal to see what errors come up
[04:23] <anto9us> mike__, you have just one NIC in the computer?
[04:23] <Lam_> i need help getting my HP laptop with a Radeon X200M work with a proprietary linux driver
[04:23] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: In any case, that doesn't fully describe the problem you are having.
[04:23] <Zarephath> !pocketpc
[04:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pocketpc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> i'm trying to make a launcher.
[04:23] <SOjourner> i'll give it a shot
[04:23] <mike__> anto9us: 2, wireless and wired
[04:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> so i don't have to go to the command line every time i run nicotine+
[04:24] <THX-1138> SOjourner: strace your_program name ???
[04:24] <Sktfeelsdapper> but that doesn't work.
[04:24] <anto9us> mike__, make sure just one is enabled
[04:24] <SOjourner> thx-1138: firefox and gaim
[04:24] <rpedro> !enter
[04:24] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[04:24] <rpedro> Sktfeelsdapper: for you ^^
[04:24] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Open a terminal, and then cut&paste that line verbatim and hit enter.
[04:24] <SOjourner> this is what i get when i try to run firefox from termnial
[04:24] <mike__> anto9us: i have disabled eth1(wireless)
[04:24] <Sktfeelsdapper> For me?
[04:24] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Yes.
[04:24] <anto9us> mike__, any success now?
[04:24] <SOjourner> INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?
[04:24] <Madpilot> Sktfeelsdapper, the !enter thing - please don't use Enter as punctuation...
[04:24] <Sktfeelsdapper> Ok, that doesn't work for me.
[04:25] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: There's your problem.
[04:25] <Sktfeelsdapper> But it has worked for me before
[04:25] <Arafangion> Madpilot: Sktfeelsdapper doesn't use enter as punctuation.
[04:25] <Sktfeelsdapper> Yah I don't know how I use puncutation?
[04:25] <Sktfeelsdapper> Err enter
[04:25] <Dr_willis> Lam_,  i just followed the !ati wiki page and the x200m in my laptop towkrd.
[04:25] <mike__> anto9us: no :/
[04:25] <Dr_willis> !ati
[04:25] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:26] <anto9us> mike__, disable and re-enable eth0
[04:26] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: What happens if you type: /home/skt/nicotine+<tab>/nic<tab>
[04:26] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: I'm guessing you've made a small typo.
[04:26] <Sktfeelsdapper> nothing.
[04:26] <slopz[away] > SOjourner, you should search that error in the ubuntu forums, i'm sure you'll find something useful
[04:26] <Lam_> Dr_willis: hopefully it'll work. i've tried 3 different driver versions and switched UMA on and off with no luck
[04:26] <SOjourner> when i try to initiate firefox, this is what i get INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?
[04:26] <Sktfeelsdapper> Tab doesn't do anything.
[04:27] <ACU> guys I am lost - I installed and configure a ftp based on proftp - If I access it through firefox ftp://localhost I can see it. Question how can I make a directory and drop some files in there?
[04:27] <SOjourner> i cant get to the ubunt forums because I dont have a browser
[04:27] <andycap_> hi, I have a problem
[04:27] <mike__> anto9us: Thanks, I'm gonna try that now, I'll be right back. Im useing eth0
[04:27] <slopz[away] > SOjourner, you can't use the gnome default browser either?
[04:27] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Try hitting it twice, and see what alternatives it provides.
[04:27] <anto9us> mike__, ok
[04:27] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Just make sure you really are typing the _correct_ path and program name.
[04:27] <Sktfeelsdapper> nothing!
[04:27] <PyroMithrandir> anyone know of a command that would be like lsof, but in real time. I want to have it running and when a file is opened, I want the program to tell me
[04:27] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Do you even have the directory "nicotine+-1.2.5.1" in your home directory?
[04:28] <andycap_> I installed a game and when choosing the installation directory, I tried choosing z(the ubuntu directory) but it wouldn't let me
[04:28] <Dr_willis> Lam_,  mine just worked... i was suprised. :P
[04:28] <andycap_> so it was installed in c:
[04:28] <andycap_> is there a way to play off of the c: drive?
[04:28] <slopz[away] > c: drive?
[04:28] <Arafangion> andycap_: In wine?
[04:28] <andycap_> wine?
[04:28] <Sktfeelsdapper> no it's in my skt directory
[04:28] <Sktfeelsdapper> it's in home/skt
[04:29] <Dr_willis> andycap_,  linux dont use C: and Z: letters... so you are confusing us.
[04:29] <Arafangion> andycap_: How did you install a game into "C: Drive"?
[04:29] <Arafangion> andycap_: Linux doesn't even have a _concept_ of drive letters.
[04:29] <andycap_> well it was an .exe file from the internet
[04:29] <ash211> wine creates a virtual c drive in ~/.wine/drive_c
[04:29] <nbjayme> hello all. anybody knows how to fix this? 000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.: Unknown device 3344 (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [VGA] )

[04:30] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, which wise man told ya linux can run .exe ?
[04:30] <andycap_> so how can I get it on linux?
[04:30] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:30] <Dr_willis> !wine
[04:30] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:30] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: /home is where all the various home directories for the various users are stored.
[04:30] <Dr_willis> andycap_,  it MIGHT work with wine
[04:30] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Your "home" is therefore /home/skt
[04:30] <ACU> how can I create and drop files on a ftp server?
[04:30] <andycap_> cool, thanks guys!
[04:30] <Sktfeelsdapper> now i am really confused.
[04:31] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Mac OS X puts home directories in /Users/user_name instead.
[04:31] <THX-1138> ACU - put command get is get those files
[04:31] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Does that make it easier?
[04:31] <THX-1138> !ftp
[04:31] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd
[04:31] <Sktfeelsdapper> so it would just be skt?
[04:31] <wickedpuppy> Sktfeelsdapper, if your username is "someone" then your home , also known as ~ , is /home/someone
[04:31] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: In your case it is /home/skt
[04:31] <andycap_> wait, wher can I DL wine?
[04:31] <Sktfeelsdapper> but this isn't make sense to me.
[04:32] <Sktfeelsdapper> it gives me a million possibilities.
[04:32] <Sktfeelsdapper> when i double tab it
[04:32] <Phuzion> I don't have a desktop manager installed, but I want to go with LAMP, what packages do I need to install?
[04:32] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, wine is in the repos .... sudo apt-get install wine
[04:32] <Phuzion> !lamp
[04:32] <ubotu> lamp is Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.  For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP  -  See also the Server CD install menu.
[04:32] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Show me.
[04:32] <mwright1> How do I recheck the video card,  X is bombing (vid charge has changed.. I have a 6.06 LTS command prompt
[04:32] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Just the first screen.
[04:32] <tonyyarusso> Question: If I have one printer (USB) and two computers, what is the best way of making both computers use it (preferably without requiring one computer to always be on, but that might be an option)?
[04:32] <ACU> THX-1138: so I go to a command prompt and and say put <file> ?  Can you show me a realife sample ?
[04:32] <Madpilot> andycap_, it's in Ubuntu's universe repository
[04:32] <andycap_> where is the repos :\
[04:33] <Arafangion> tonyyarusso: You must network it.
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> !tell repos to andycap_
[04:33] <Sktfeelsdapper> hold on
[04:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tell repos to andycap_ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:33] <Arafangion> tonyyarusso: Or, plug it into the relevant computer as you require it.
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> tell repos to andycap_
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> ah heck .. i forgot the command
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> lol
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> !repos
[04:33] <mwright1> can anyone help me getting X windows to work
[04:33] <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
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> there you go andycap_
[04:33] <mwright1> is there a command line command to probe the vid card in xorg 7.x

[04:33] <mwright1> please :)
[04:34] <THX-1138> ACU - What client/server are you uing? - i don't know man you ftp client or man your ftpserver may be your best friend.
[04:34] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Ok, now type 'n', and hit tab
[04:34] <Madpilot> wickedpuppy, it's "!tell <nick> about <thing>" just for future reference
[04:34] <Kalisto> hey guys, i have a massive problem that i cant fix.. no matter what i try.. when my box loads all i get is: Loading Stage 1.5 ...grub loading please wait... Error 15
[04:34] <wickedpuppy> oh okie .. thanks Madpilot
[04:34] <Kalisto> now i have Ununtu installed on an external HDD... 3 partitions.. boot/swap/root... am i right to assume since i tell my laptop to boot from USB that root in grub is (hd0,0)?
[04:34] <tonyyarusso> Arafangion: Well, we're getting another wireless router to improve our coverage over the house, and there's a good chance it could end up in or near here.  Could I do it by having one computer plugged into that via ethernet and the other either that way or using wireless on the same AP?
[04:34] <Madpilot> !tell wickedpuppy about yourself
[04:35] <nbjayme> what does this mean?  (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/wacom
[04:35] <Sktfeelsdapper> ok nicotine+-1.2.5.1 came up
[04:35] <Arafangion> tonyyarusso: Some wireless routers may well be able to share a printer directly. Consider that possibility.
[04:35] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Hit tab again. :)
[04:35] <omegacat> hi, I'm getting the message "the greeter application appears to be crashing. Attempting to use a different one" and it seems to just be hanging
[04:35] <tonyyarusso> Arafangion: Cool.  (btw, if it matters it's the open firmware linux one from linksys, so I'm told I can mod it up pretty far)
[04:36] <Sktfeelsdapper> now nothing is coming up
[04:36] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: And hit it again. :)
[04:36] <Phocion> hey guys.....so I partition my drive in fdisk...'w' to write the partition table...then I remount the drive and the data is STILL THERE!!!!! any ideas??
[04:36] <Phocion> why is it not being removed
[04:36] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: How do you usually start nicotine?
[04:36] <omegacat> I have Dapper amd64 and it was a totally brand new fresh install off the CD and I just upgraded the 100 some odd packages that it wanted to.
[04:36] <anto9us> Kalisto, error 15 I think means the partition numbers are skewed
[04:36] <Zaire> anyone know what mysql package I need to use phpbb
[04:36] <Sktfeelsdapper> cd / home / skt
[04:37] <Sktfeelsdapper> grrr
[04:37] <Sktfeelsdapper> it won't let me post this
[04:37] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Just cd, without any arguments, will default to your home.  It's also the same thing as "cd ~"
[04:37] <valehru> Is there any application that can convert HTML to PDF?
[04:37] <Kalisto> anto9us, ok where do i start then?
[04:37] <bigdaddy_> hello problem: im on dapper drake sound is intel HDA an i read up on net that if i put options snd-hda-intel position_fix=2 within alsa-base it would fix my left channel crackle problem how ever it fixes it randomly if there an perm fix for this?
[04:37] <anto9us> Kalisto, boot from a livecd and check things out
[04:37] <Zaire> anyone know what mysql package I need to use phpbb
[04:38] <Dr_willis> valehru,  you can 'print to pdf'  with the right setup
[04:38] <Arafangion> valehru: Use your favorite browser, and then print to pdf.
[04:38] <Sktfeelsdapper> arg i'm so frustrated.,
[04:38] <Kalisto> anto9us, belive me iv done that 1000 times.. tried all the numbers root (hd0,0) hd1,0... no avail
[04:38] <fgh_lo> can someone point me to the guide on how to dual boot winxp and ubuntu? i can't seem find that guide.
[04:38] <valehru> Dr_willis, Arafangion I only have print to postscript / default.
[04:39] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: It's just a very, very different environment.  I've never used nicotine, so I can't give you real simple "one liner", that will just work.
[04:39] <Arafangion> valehru: Ok, then use ps2pdf
[04:39] <pluma_> Grapefruit ice tea rocks.
[04:39] <Dr_willis> fgh_lo,  the grub menu.lst has an example entry to boot xp off the first hard drive  - in the comments.
[04:39] <Arafangion> valehru: But you really should have a "pdf" printer setup as a fake "printer".
[04:39] <Dr_willis> fgh_lo,  or read up on the grub docs/guides
[04:39] <Arafangion> valehru: Infact, that should be the default in Ubuntu.
[04:39] <|thunder> fgh_lo, ill post my menu.lst       you using grub , yes ?
[04:39] <Sktfeelsdapper> root@skt-desktop:~/nicotine+-1.2.5.1# ./nicotine
[04:39] <valehru> Arafangion, how can I do that?
[04:39] <Sktfeelsdapper> That is what I just did, and I am currently in nicotine.
[04:40] <fgh_lo> Dr_willis: i have a xp on one parition (ntfs) and about to install ubuntu. how much space should i allow for swap?
[04:40] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Try closing that, then typing: /home/skt/nicotine+-1.2.5.1/nicotine
[04:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> i tried to cut and paste the pastebin url just now but i guess i missed.
[04:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> closing nicotine?
[04:41] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Get out of it/kill it/switch windows/whatever, we want to run it again.
[04:41] <etzerd> hello all

[04:43] <|thunder> fgh_lo; i have set to a gig to match my gig of ram
[04:43] <mwright1> can anyone help etting X windows to autodetect
[04:43] <mwright1> I need to probe the vid care
[04:43] <andycap_> guys, for some reason
[04:43] <SinnerG> http://89.149.195.25/ after running my auto install/compile script :)
[04:43] <etzerd> jtkiefer:Yes I have a logitech it works fine. if it is the one you are refering to;
[04:43] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  what video card ya got?
[04:43] <vanberge> can anybody recommend any good wireless tools?
[04:43] <mwright1> nvidia something
[04:43] <andycap_> when I open my sources.list file it opens with rythmbox
[04:43] <Sktfeelsdapper> Nope that didn't work.
[04:44] <mwright1> I just need to get into X
[04:44] <fgh_lo> thx.
[04:44] <mwright1> that's all
[04:44] <andycap_> what should I open it with?
[04:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> I put it in exactly like that, and it didn't work.
[04:44] <vanberge> that enable easy wep/wpa configs?
[04:44] <pluma_> Seriously. Where should I put full-blow application directories with subdirs and everything? /usr/lib/<application>/ sounds like the most sensible choice, but is it?
[04:44] <jtkiefer> etzerd, what package did you have to use to get it to work?
[04:44] <etzerd> I use Ekiga
[04:44] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  you install the nvidia drivers yet?
[04:44] <SinnerG> or /usr/local/<application>
[04:44] <Dr_willis> !nvidia
[04:44] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:44] <mwright1> chicken and eg.
[04:44] <claco> I've for wpa_supplicant running...connects, and I can surf when I run it manually.. I just can't get it to happen when I insert the card under edgy
[04:44] <mwright1> I don't have networking enabled
[04:44] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Show me a screenshot.
[04:44] <mwright1> I dropped a network card in but that hasn't auto detected
[04:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> I keep double clicking it and still nothing.
[04:44] <etzerd> but I still cannot find a package that I can take capture pictures with.
[04:44] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, in GUI ? gedit
[04:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> How do you take sn's in here, and more importantly where do i put it?
[04:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> screen shots
[04:45] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  set the thing to use 'vesa' for a default. to get X going. Not sure about the network card.
[04:45] <pluma_> SinnerG: /usr/local/ seems to be empty.
[04:45] <Arafangion> Guys, where can Sktfeelsdapper upload screenshots?
[04:45] <etzerd> but Ekiga is just like a conferencing.
[04:45] <mwright1> Dr willis hwo do I do that?
[04:45] <SinnerG> well, you wanted a place to put stuff.. didnt say it was used before :p
[04:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> I'm so frustrated!!!!!
[04:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> ahhhhh
[04:45] <SinnerG> I use /usr/local for stuff like apache ;)
[04:45] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf   - should be a 'driver' line
[04:45] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: btw, screenshots can be made easily by hitting the little "Prt Sc" or "Print Screen" button on your keyboard.
[04:45] <andycap_> ... I don't get what to do now..
[04:46] <Sktfeelsdapper> Oh it works the same as in windows?
[04:46] <mwright1> ok
[04:46] <Kalisto> anto9us, when i install grub again.. from the cd.. into shell.. what command can i type in to check that it will install it to the correct hd.. ie how do i know if my usb is hdo or hd1?
[04:46] <Zambezi> pluma_, Thanks alot. I didn't figured out that myself!!
[04:46] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: No, it works much, much, much better than in windows.
[04:46] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, are you in nautilus or in command line ?
[04:46] <britt> where can i go for powerpc specific things?
[04:46] <andycap_> gedit
[04:46] <pluma_> Zambezi: Your sarcasm is much appreciated. ;)
[04:46] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  or run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:46] <andycap_> this is what the first lines say

[04:46] <Sktfeelsdapper> Hold on, I guess I have to make another account
[04:46] <pluma_> Augh.
[04:46] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, so you got it opened under gedit ?
[04:46] <mike__> anto9us: Can't find any blocking, I have the same mac in windows and there it works
[04:47] <andycap_> yes
[04:47] <anto9us> Kalisto, attach it and see what dmesg says
[04:47] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, then its fine .. no problem right ?
[04:47] <Arafangion> Hello? Where the heck is a good place for Sktfeelsdapper to upload screenshots?
[04:47] <andycap_> yes
[04:47] <andycap_> do I need dapper?
[04:48] <sid> I have packages I removed, but they still show up in dpkg -al; as "rc"
[04:48] <sid> How can I remove them from dpkg -al?
[04:48] <clearzen> what does this error mean if you recieve it during a update?  Err http://archive.ubuntu.com dapper Release.gpg
[04:48] <anto9us> mike__, yes, forgot about that, I'm stuck for ideas
[04:48] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, what are you using ? which ubuntu version ?
[04:48] <britt> how can i conserve power on my ibook?
[04:48] <Sktfeelsdapper> http://img90.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshothu8.png
[04:48] <andycap_> lol, I don't know, this is an older computer, haven't used it in a while
[04:48] <mwright1> The Xserver can't fidn font fixed
[04:49] <mwright1> something wrong with the unix font sever 7100
[04:49] <mwright1> on port 7100
[04:49] <Lam_> yeah. my video card definitely doesn't work with fglrx. UMA+SidePort 128MB Shared Memory, with 8.25.8 and it still gives me a blank screen
[04:49] <wickedpuppy> andycap_, cat /etc/issue ... btw what are you trying to do ?
[04:49] <Sktfeelsdapper> you know what dude, i'm thinking i might just stick with it being where it is.
[04:49] <pluma_> SinnerG: Apparently in this case it was in /usr/lib/ originally too, so that works. I guess my question could have been answered with a bit of checking on my side ;)
[04:49] <anto9us> mike__, just one idea, do you have any locations set up in Network Settings? Tried a different one?
[04:49] <andycap_> trying to enable WINE in the repos
[04:49] <SinnerG> hehe :p
[04:49] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  thats  interesting..      how did you edit that file? or did you use the dpkg-rconfigure line?
[04:50] <wickedpuppy> what does that screenshot suppose to show ?
[04:50] <claco> is there an updated wpasup setup for Edgy?
[04:50] <anto9us> I'm off to bed, night everyone and good luck!
[04:50] <claco> some of the files referenced in the forums don't seem to exist
[04:51] <britt> maybe a dumb question, but does linux still run on a i486?
[04:51] <mwright1> dr_willis manually with vi
[04:51] <mwright1> did a / to search for Driver
[04:51] <mwright1> then changed the nv in the quotes to vesa
[04:51] <Dr_willis> andycap_,  use that 'add/remove' icon in the menus.. check  the  'show unsupported' and search for wine, and install it. :P
[04:52] <wickedpuppy> britt, runs from 386 to 686
[04:52] <andycap_> thanks dude!
[04:52] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  thats odd that it  complains about the fonts now.
[04:52] <mwright1> IT did before
[04:52] <Dr_willis> andycap_,   it is worth wile to learn about how the repoisotory system works. :)
[04:52] <mwright1> that was why it bombed efore.. I was just assuming it was the nv driver causing it
[04:52] <livingtm>  /join #initng
[04:52] <andycap_> yeah, I'll check it out
[04:52] <Dr_willis> mwright1,  ahhhhhhhhhhhh...
[04:53] <hilltop> Hi guys, I thought there is a channel for python. #python-cleese looks empty.
[04:53] <mwright1> any idea?
[04:53] <Dr_willis> mwright1,   Hmm try the           sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg     command and select/try nv/nvidia/vesa
[04:53] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: My folks are arriving any moment ,so if I don't respond, that's why.
[04:53] <wickedpuppy> oh andycap_ got your ubuntu version ?
[04:53] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Could you provide a screenshot of whatever settings you've put into the launcher?
[04:54] <andycap_> no, I think I got WINE though
[04:54] <andycap_> hold on
[04:54] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: It's the settings that are the problem, not the icon ;)
[04:55] <Rickman> I'm using VSFTP as my ftp server on my newly installed linux box.  When I ftp into my server from another pc, it doesn't show the typical public_html that I've typically seen with webservers.  How do I get this to happen?
[04:55] <Dr_willis> andycap_,  one of the first things to do is run winecfg      so the settings get set up right. for wine
[04:55] <Sktfeelsdapper> ok one second
[04:56] <andycap_> it says wine is not available in any software channels
[04:56] <Rickman> can anyone help me here regarding Vsftpd?
[04:57] <Arafangion> Dr_willis: Isn't winecfg outdated, and explicitly discouraged by the #winehq folks?
[04:57] <Sktfeelsdapper> http://img114.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot1mj9.png
[04:57] <wickedpuppy> Rickman, you set up a vsftp but want to see what you see on web server ?
[04:57] <Arafangion> Dr_willis: Additionally, doesn't wine autoconfigure itself on first launch?
[04:57] <Sktfeelsdapper> arafangion there's the other sn
[04:57] <kendy_> where
[04:57] <Rickman> wickedpuppy, well, I want to see a public_html directory.  I'm assuming that's a setting in the .conf file
[04:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> errr screenshot
[04:58] <RawSewage> Anyone know how I can create my own nzb files
[04:58] <britt> wickedpuppy: ok
[04:58] <wickedpuppy> Rickman, where if your ftp server root directory ?
[04:58] <Dr_willis> Arafangion,  yea i think it does.. but ive never notifced it affecting much either way. :P
[04:59] <Dr_willis> Arafangion,  i tend to use cedega also.
[04:59] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Hmm, that really should work.
[04:59] <Sktfeelsdapper> it should shouldn't it? heh
[04:59] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Try making a new launcher.
[04:59] <devicenull> shit, I forgot my password.. is there a way to reset it without reinstalling?
[05:00] <RawSewage> Anyone know if there's a way to throttle the speed on klibido
[05:00] <mwright1> dr_ ... I am getting /dev/wacom error messages
[05:00] <kutan> Hello, can someone give me the name of audio conversion software that includes the MIDI and OGG formats?
[05:00] <mwright1> error opening /dev/wacom: Success
[05:00] <wickedpuppy> Sktfeelsdapper, may i ask a question ? did you run nicotine as root on the command line ?
[05:00] <mwright1> then could not open default font fixed.. same with nv and vesa
[05:00] <Sktfeelsdapper> let me check
[05:00] <mwright1> THis is a computer I'm trying to fix for someone else
[05:00] <Rickman> wickedpuppy, actually now i'm having another problem.  I set up some virtualhosts directories and I can see them from a web-browser, but I can't add files to them from a ftp client as it says I don't have permissions...
[05:00] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Don't run it as root!
[05:01] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: If you did, try: sudo mv ~/.nicotine ~/.nicotine-old
[05:01] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Then try clicking on the launcher again.
[05:01] <Sktfeelsdapper> wait.
[05:01] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Then repeat after me "Do not run programs as root unless neccessary", 10,000 times.
[05:01] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: And it's rarely neccessary.
[05:01] <wickedpuppy> Rickman, you created the directories as root right ? ls -l on the directories
[05:02] <Rickman> wickedpuppy, yes, well I used sudo, but yes
[05:02] <pluma_> Is there a way to add installed executables to your application menu in the GNOME bar? I can't find a way to add anything other than via install/remove.
[05:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> it doesn't work for me under just skt
[05:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> it works under root
[05:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> i guess i'm the dumb arse
[05:02] <wickedpuppy> Rickman, then i suggest you create one as a normal user ... and test it
[05:02] <wickedpuppy> Sktfeelsdapper, we all are ... now then i remember you asked us whether to put # sign a few pages ago
[05:03] <wickedpuppy> then i realised you been running under root all these times
[05:03] <Sktfeelsdapper> do i put it in the launcher?
[05:03] <Rickman> wickedpuppy, ok, but isn't there a way that I can change ownership/security for the current dirs from root, to my other normal login?
[05:03] <wickedpuppy> clearly not
[05:03] <wickedpuppy> :P
[05:03] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: That's your problem.  My guess is that for some wierd reason, you decided to run it as root the first time, which made initial configuration files as root, which means that when you're running it without root privs, it's unable to see the configuration.
[05:03] <Sktfeelsdapper> so does that mean i screwed up?
[05:03] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: The launcher is fine.
[05:03] <devicenull> nm, got it
[05:03] <devicenull> rebooted to recovery mode
[05:03] <Sktfeelsdapper> i screwed up. haha
[05:04] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Just move your ~/.nicotine to some other name, such as ~/.nicotine-backup
[05:04] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: You'll probably need to do that using sudo.
[05:04] <john> I have a file called install.sh, how do I install it?
[05:04] <pluma_> john: just run it?
[05:04] <Sktfeelsdapper> i'm confused.
[05:04] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: The linux security model is VERY different to the windows security model.
[05:04] <Sktfeelsdapper> is it possible to make the root command in the launcher?
[05:05] <devicenull> okay, when I installed I chose the "server" one
[05:05] <pluma_> Very different and indeed a bit confusing.
[05:05] <devicenull> is it possible to install all the packages from the "desktop" one?
[05:05] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: "dot files", ie, those that begin with a dot, are by long standing convention, "hidden".
[05:05] <wickedpuppy> Rickman, of course you can change the ownership of the dir ... sudo chown username dirname
[05:05] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: They are generally used as configuration files.
[05:05] <Sktfeelsdapper> they are . files.
[05:06] <john> pluma_, It asks me if I want to run it in terminal or run it
[05:06] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: You need to move the ~/.nicotine files to somewhere else, so that when you start nicotine as skt, it is able to write to ~/.nicotine
[05:06] <john> pluma_, with either option, it does not do anything
[05:06] <pluma_> john: it asks you whether you wish to execute it or read it.
[05:06] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: ALternatively, try: sudo chown skt -R /home/skt
[05:06] <pluma_> It DOES do something if you execute it.
[05:06] <Astray> Anybody know why beryl remaps all the buttosn on my mouse and makes it unuseable?
[05:06] <Rickman> wickedpuppy, will that change all of the subfolders inside each of the directories that I'm doing the chown on?
[05:06] <pluma_> It probably just doesn't show you any output on the screen.
[05:06] <john> pluma_, run in terminal or run - neither works
[05:06] <devicenull> should I install Xfree or xorg?
[05:06] <Sktfeelsdapper> what does that do?
[05:06] <pluma_> Hm... does it have any effects?
[05:07] <Rickman> wickedpuppy, in other words, will it recurse to all the subs, which is what I want?
[05:07] <wickedpuppy> Rickman, not unless you used -R ... recursive .. i suggest man chown for mroe info
[05:07] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: CHange OWNership of files, -Recursively.
[05:07] <wickedpuppy> oh then chown -R ...
[05:07] <kane_> Hey, does anyone know how to remove a single package and none of its Deps?
[05:07] <pluma_> Try opening a terminal and executing it via the commandline. Does it print any error messages?
[05:07] <Sktfeelsdapper> whoops i just did that to /home/skt
[05:07] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Excellent. Try the launcher now.
[05:07] <john> pluma_, I will give it a try!
[05:08] <Sktfeelsdapper> IT WORKED
[05:08] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: The command changes the owner to "skt", giving you access.
[05:08] <Sktfeelsdapper> IT WORKED IT WORKED
[05:08] <Sktfeelsdapper> moral of this story?
[05:08] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Yes, because ~/.nicotine, and possibly other files, were owned as root, because you were using sudo too much.
[05:08] <Sktfeelsdapper> don't ever use root for anything :)
[05:08] <codecaine> when you install apache does it automatic recongnize php?
[05:08] <wickedpuppy> learn linux
[05:08] <Sktfeelsdapper> oh dear lawdy it worked.
[05:08] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Incidently, many programs look at the HOME environment variable, which is not reset by sudo.
[05:08] <Sktfeelsdapper> did it change all my files back to me?
[05:08] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Yes.
[05:09] <Normal> Hey all.My new computer has two 250Gb Hard drives and 2GbRAM. Any advice on how to partition it? I just read something that said '/ 12gigs','swap 2gigs','/var 2gigs',/home for the rest. Is this good advice?
[05:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> sweetness
[05:09] <devicenull> Which version fo X is installed by deafult with the "desktop" version, XOrg or XFree?
[05:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> Arafangion are you a male?
[05:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> Or a female?
[05:09] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Male.
[05:09] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: Why? ;)
[05:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> Well if I knew you I'd take you out for a beer.
[05:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> haha
[05:09] <wickedpuppy> lol ... now this is a dating channel
[05:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> Or give you a big ole smooch on the cheek. hahaha
[05:10] <Sktfeelsdapper> j/k
[05:10] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: And if I were female, you wouldn't dare take me out? ;)
[05:10] <Healot> Normal, depends  on your need and knowledge
[05:10] <wickedpuppy> devicenull, Xorg
[05:10] <krazykit> ...
[05:10] <krazykit> devicenull: xorg.
[05:10] <Sktfeelsdapper> well i wouldn't for certain reasons no
[05:10] <devicenull> ok, thanks
[05:10] <Arafangion> Anyway, no fun on freenode, so we should stop. ;)
[05:10] <JoseStefan> !php > codecaine
[05:11] <Normal> Well, I know little, but I didn't have a hard time partitioning on my first bout with Ubuntu
[05:11] <pluma_> I love verbose output. I hate "exit code 1"
[05:11] <Sktfeelsdapper> now all i have to do is figure out why lastfm isn't working for me and then i'll be set.
[05:11] <mastercho> would anyone know what causes constant reboots after the kernel is loaded?
[05:11] <codecaine> ? Jose?
[05:11] <Healot> Normal, i guess just take what the installer suggest?
[05:11] <john> pluma_, how do I go back a level when I have gone too far in a file
[05:12] <codecaine> ah got it ty
[05:12] <john> cd <name> is to go forward, what is to go back?
[05:12] <duelboot> I'm having trouble installing BestCrypt...[subdirs]  Error 2...any assistance?
[05:12] <Normal> Okay, simple enough! How about this: 32 or 64bit? I have both installers and don't know which to use...
[05:12] <sethk> Normal, what hardware do you have?
[05:12] <Healot> Normal, what processor do you have
[05:13] <Normal> amd64x2 4200
[05:13] <JoseStefan> Normal, 32bit is easier, less troubles. 64bit might be more fun
[05:13] <Healot> if you have those AMD64 or P4 with EMT64...  both versions work
[05:13] <bruenig> Normal, go with 32
[05:13] <Rickman> wickedpuppy, ok that worked, was able to chown the folders.  I copied an index.html file into the directory, but when I try to view the page from a web browser now i get "you are not authorized to view this page"
[05:13] <Sktfeelsdapper> Hey dude does that change permission to the folders forever?
[05:13] <Sktfeelsdapper> Or until I reboot?

[05:16] <Rickman> before I put the index.html file in there, at least I was getting a directory list, now it's says no authorization...
[05:16] <duelboot> Rickman, cuz you're not authorized... :)  sorry no help here

[05:16] <SEN-5421> Hi I just backed up my .evolution email folder and reinstalled it on a new system... ALL my directories of emails show up in Evolution again except one... the data file for that folder exists but the emails are not shown in Evolution ; any idea what I can do to make these emails visible again?
[05:16] <JoseStefan> ubotu, tell john about yourself
[05:16] <Rickman> Yes, sorry I'm using apache2
[05:16] <jrib> john: you need to install the build-essential package
[05:17] <devicenull> fuck, I'll just reinstall
[05:17] <Healot> Rickman, all apache related question > #apache
[05:17] <ablyss> Rickman, probably config not set right

[05:17] <Normal> Last one: Should I try Beryl with the new Nvidia beta driver without aiglx, then if it don't go 'good', add aiglx later?
[05:17] <Arafangion> Sktfeelsdapper: If you have to change them again, it's because they were explicitly changed.
[05:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> Forever!
[05:18] <duelboot> I'm having trouble installing BestCrypt...[subdirs]  Error 2...any assistance?
[05:18] <john> jrib, how do I do that - I have all the packages here
[05:18] <jrib> john: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[05:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> Ok, well now my last.fm problem.
[05:18] <bruenig> !yourself
[05:18] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[05:18] <jrib> john: did you know flightgear is in the repositories?
[05:18] <john> no
[05:18] <john> lol
[05:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> !myself
[05:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about myself - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:18] <john> so what now?
[05:19] <Sktfeelsdapper> Geez sounds like he's got a problem there.
[05:19] <Zaire> anyone know how I can fix this http://pastebin.ca/188439
[05:19] <Normal> Well, I guess 2 out o' 3 will do!
[05:20] <yanger> you guys know any easy way to setup a router with ubuntu as the distro?
[05:20] <jrib> !info flightgear
[05:20] <smellslikesteven> hi guys
[05:20] <ubotu> flightgear: Flight Gear Flight Simulator. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.9.9-2ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 1603 kB, installed size 4096 kB
[05:20] <john> ok
[05:20] <yanger> pc as a router
[05:20] <jrib> john: have you enabled the uiverse repository?
[05:20] <smellslikesteven> i am a nubuntu
[05:20] <jrib> smellslikesteven: welcome :)
[05:20] <umbutu> don't you mean n00bumbutu
[05:20] <john> jrib, I dont think so. How do I do it?
[05:20] <jrib> ubotu: tell john about universe
[05:20] <yanger> rubuntu perhaps? :D guess not...
[05:21] <DeadLock> :)
[05:21] <umbutu> :)
[05:22] <john> jrib, ou can enable the universe component by editing the file "/etc/apt/sources.list" after installing Ubuntu.
[05:22] <jrib> john: that's correct
[05:22] <john> jrib, what do I change in it?
[05:22] <jrib> john: the wiki page gives you all the details.  But all you need to do is uncomment the lines that correspond to universe (read the comments)
[05:23] <john> jrib, what is the link to the page - or is it a search on google?
[05:23] <sethk> john, I believe this is the line we removed from sources.lst when you were getting a syntax error
[05:23] <jrib> john: check your private message from ubotu
[05:23] <sethk> john, as I told you then, you need to put that line back in, but without the syntax error (of course)
[05:24] <sethk> john, if the line you are looking for is already in the file, of course, then this doesn't apply
[05:24] <john> sethk, If I can see flight gear in the repository, doe sit mean I have universe enabled
[05:24] <john> sethk, ?
[05:25] <jrib> john: yes
[05:25] <john> ok - I am downloading the file now
[05:25] <JoseStefan> there are easier ways to add "universe": use "Software Properties" (or Software Sources), in Administration Menu
[05:25] <john> 99mb in 10 mins
[05:26] <john> @167kbs
[05:26] <john> What speed do you download at?
[05:26] <Ash-Fox> Does anyone know of a way to get firefox to open anything with 'kfmclient exec <program/filename>', if I click open in the download box or something?
[05:27] <SAM_theman> GTK+-2.8 i
[05:27] <SAM_theman> it says it missing then when i look in synaptics says its not found..
[05:27] <MTecknology> DBO, still busy?
[05:28] <sureshot> hey i would like to ask an off topic question but the info on login says something about lilo and family may i ask as to what happend
[05:28] <DBO> MTecknology, nope lets do this thing
[05:28] <MTecknology> awesome
[05:28] <MTecknology> query?
[05:28] <DBO> yes
[05:28] <Healot> a simple. question. should there be any problem if I create a mirror with two disks with different speed, i.e SATA and IDE UltraDMA-5?
[05:28] <sethk> Healot, you won't take advantage of the higher speed, but other than that, no
[05:29] <SAM_theman> going to install the source
[05:29] <Healot> any chance of broken mirror, due to different write speed??
[05:29] <sethk> Healot, no
[05:29] <sethk> Healot, of course during an update there is a small window of risk, but that's true with two identical drives as well
[05:29] <Healot> thanks
[05:29] <sethk> Healot, effectively the quicker one will be throttled by the slower one
[05:30] <Healot> just got and extra disk...
[05:30] <Healot> want to try RAID...
[05:31] <briguyd> should i use easyubuntu or automatix?
[05:31] <lexam> hmm easy ubuntu I have not tried
[05:31] <lexam> have to brb
[05:31] <DarkMageZ> automatrix gets given funny looks in this channel
[05:32] <sureshot> i have read a lot of post in here that say easyubuntu and automatix are not a good idea
[05:32] <DarkMageZ> easyubuntu is treated with more respect
[05:32] <john> jrib, I have downloaded it in the repository, now ehere do I find it?
[05:32] <DarkMageZ> but preferably don't use them
[05:33] <briguyd> does easy ubuntu work with edgy?
[05:33] <sureshot> hey i would like to ask an off topic question but the info on login says something about lilo and family may i ask as to what happend

[05:35] <Bobsyagod> Hey guys. Need a bit of help. Just upgraded the graphics card in my Dapper box, from none (onboard Intel) to an nVidia 7600 GS. Now my X server is having a fit. Can someone help me get it sorted?
[05:36] <john> Where do I find Flightgear once I have downloaded it from syaptic package manager?
[05:36] <codecaine> anybdoy know how to get php activated with apache :(
[05:36] <xenoNfluX> !lamp
[05:36] <ubotu> lamp is Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL.  For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP  -  See also the Server CD install menu.
[05:37] <john> Where do I find Flightgear once I have downloaded it from syaptic package manager?
[05:37] <Dr_willis> john,  it should have a menu item
[05:37] <Dr_willis> john,  if you INSTALLED it with the package manager.. that is..
[05:37] <valehru> hey, im printing to PDF and all my PDF documents have the filename and the path to the file as the header on each document.  is there a way to remove it?
[05:37] <valehru> Im using CUPS by the way
[05:38] <Dr_willis> check the program you are printing from? it may be doing that..
[05:38] <valehru> Using NVU...
[05:38] <john> Dr_willis, no it is not in the menu, but It have a green box next to in in the pagage manager saying it has the lated=st version
[05:38] <valehru> Will check now Dr_willis thx
[05:38] <Dr_willis> never used that. :P
[05:38] <Dr_willis> john,  could be the menu hasent refreshed..
[05:39] <zakame> hi all
[05:39] <Dr_willis> john,  could try running 'flightgear' from a terminal
[05:39] <john> Dr_willis, how do I do that?
[05:39] <rpedro> john, install menu (sudo apt-get install menu) , and FlightGear should be under Applications -> Debian -> Games ... . it doesn't install a regular menu item I don't know why
[05:39] <Bobsyagod> Damnit, can't do anything with my Xserver screwed up...anyone know how I can get it to detect my new graphics card?
[05:39] <Dr_willis> open a terminal... type flightgear  :)
[05:39] <valehru> Dr_willis, think that was it...thx
[05:39] <Dr_willis> or listen to rpedro :)
[05:40] <rpedro> john, actually the executable is 'fgfs', you can run it from a terminal too if you like
[05:40] <rpedro> Dr_willis: :D
[05:41] <Dr_willis> the thing is a 190mb download...so i aint playingit soon to test for him.
[05:41] <Dr_willis> lol
[05:41] <john> rpedro, where do I find it on mu computer?
[05:41] <Shadow_mil> What is the safest way to mount NTFS?  I have heard that captive-ntfs is not all that safe
[05:41] <xenoNfluX> bobsyagood, have you installed the nvidia drivers?
[05:41] <rpedro> applications -> accessories -> terminal
[05:41] <Dr_willis> Shadow_mil,  youmean safest to WRITE to ntfs? or just read.
[05:41] <john> ok
[05:41] <Shadow_mil> WRITE to
[05:41] <dan2> ntfs-3g works great here
[05:41] <Bobsyagod> xenoNfluX - Nope, I only just popped in the card. Was going to apt-get the drivers once I booted. Now I think about it, probably not a smart idea :$
[05:41] <Dr_willis> am i the only one that thinks the Terminal icon should be in the panels by default?
[05:41] <zakame> ntfs-3g, but its supposed to be merged in to ntfsprogs
[05:41] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:41] <john> rpedro, I have that up - now what?
[05:42] <Alllleexx> What program do u need to load an .exe in ubuntu and what does the green foot icon mean on a file?  I know i know, such a newb
[05:42] <Shadow_mil> what about ntfsmount program? how good would that be?
[05:42] <rpedro> john, type in 'fgfs' and hit enter
[05:42] <Phlosten> Dr_willis: nope, it is the only shortcut icon on my panel :)
 john, actually the executable is 'fgfs'
[05:42] <xenoNfluX> bobsyagood, is it not outputting video to it at all?
[05:42] <Bobsyagod> xenoNfluX - No, there's video, but it said my X wasn't configured properly and dumped me to a prompt.
[05:43] <Dr_willis> and on the desktop... :P
[05:43] <Bobsyagod> If I try 'startx' I get 'No Screens Found'.
[05:43] <xenoNfluX> bobsyagod, roger that... I'll hit you up in a PM
[05:43] <Bobsyagod> Excellent, thanks ;)

[05:47] <gcmobile> Question regarding Edgy Eft, I went to install and did everything (did an upgrade from Dapper) and when I reboot, I just get a black screen. Tried going into recovery mode, reinstalling (which it did) and I'm still getting the same issue. Just a black screen.
[05:47] <supermiguel> how do i get repositopyies
[05:47] <john> how do I terminate a program in terminal?
[05:47] <supermiguel> repositories
[05:47] <Dr_willis> !easysource
[05:47] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:47] <gcmobile> killall appname
[05:47] <gcmobile> that was towards john, btw.
[05:47] <Dr_willis> john,  ctrl-c, or use the xkill, or killall commands
[05:47] <Bobsyagod> John - Ctrl + C, if it's running.
[05:47] <xenoNfluX> bobsyagod, [and replacing "nv" with "nvidia"]  is the last thing you should need to do there
[05:47] <JoseStefan> john, ctrl+c would usually exit from the currently running program, if you want to terminate a process use "kill" or "killall
[05:48] <JoseStefan> john, "ps
[05:48] <rpedro> supermiguel: ndiswrapper-utils is in the default repositories, no need to add any extra ones
[05:48] <Bobsyagod> xenoNfluX - I'll give it a try, thanks :)
[05:48] <rpedro> supermiguel: unless
[05:48] <JoseStefan> john, "ps" will list currently running processes, i suggest using options, starting with ps --help
[05:48] <xenoNfluX> bobsyagod, no problem... I had to dig that up, I forgot all of the packages you need :)
[05:48] <gcmobile> Anyone know of the Edgy issue I have?
[05:48] <rpedro> supermiguel: *did you do 'sudo apt-get update' before that
[05:49] <jkf> hello
[05:49] <JoseStefan> tell supermiguel about repos
[05:49] <Alllleexx> JoseStefan: thanks but the program isnt for windows, or does that matter?
[05:49] <supermiguel> rpedro
[05:49] <zer0moon> is there any reason BitchX isnt displaying ANSI properly in console mode? under Dapper. ive tried setting TERM, and i know thre are console utilities .. but im not sure how to go about this
[05:49] <JoseStefan> Alllleexx, you have a .exe that is not for windows?
[05:49] <glick> howdy
[05:49] <jkf> how do i change the Access Point on eth1 that appears on my iwconfig? i have wireless
[05:49] <JoseStefan> !tell supermiguel about repos
[05:49] <supermiguel> i just install ubuntu on that machine i dont think that it will recognize it
[05:50] <supermiguel> i have to install something before install something?
[05:50] <Dr_willis> zer0moon,  the font its using may be the issue in th console
[05:50] <zer0moon> yeah but im talking about the plain tty, not in X
[05:51] <glick> what happened to lilo?
[05:51] <glick> i dont get it?
[05:51] <john> How do I change the permissions of a file?
[05:51] <rpedro> supermiguel: you do have to update apt-get's repository info, unless the package is already on the install cd, in that case you don't :)
[05:51] <jkf> john: chmod
[05:51] <JoseStefan> john, "man chmod"
[05:51] <zer0moon> unless there is some way to change the font in pure console mode (no X) ?
[05:51] <supermiguel> rpedro
[05:51] <supermiguel> how do i do that
[05:52] <glick> what is the topic about?
[05:52] <BHSPitLappy> zer0moon, there is.
 supermiguel: *did you do 'sudo apt-get update' before that
[05:52] <BHSPitLappy> I just don't remember the command :)
[05:52] <Alllleexx> JoseStefan: i know it sounds weird, but it is for linux
[05:52] <supermiguel> yep
[05:52] <jkf> how do i change the Access Point on eth1 that appears on my iwconfig? i have wireless
[05:52] <JavaDeveloper> Hi, How do I add an entry into update-alternatives --config java? where do I put an java entry there?
[05:52] <zer0moon> BHSPitLappy, lol =P
[05:52] <wickedpuppy> glick, http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/09/16/2152243
[05:53] <JoseStefan> Alllleexx, use "file _____" to get info about any file, it will tell you what it is, if it's for windows linux, etc
[05:53] <john> So what do I put in to change the permissions of a specific folder?
[05:53] <rpedro> supermiguel: ok, can you paste the output of 'apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils' on pastebin.ca ?
[05:53] <zer0moon> BHSPitLappy, ive tried 'consolechars'.. but im not sure what options or if its even the correct program
[05:54] <BHSPitLappy> try man consolechars
[05:54] <JoseStefan> JavaDeveloper, check the ubuntu's wiki for java, the info there might answer your question
[05:54] <JoseStefan> !tell JavaDeveloper about java
[05:54] <JavaDeveloper> JoseStefan: thanks
[05:54] <wickedpuppy> john, chmod
[05:54] <TiG4> *****---- Anyone know of a NetTransport(http://www.xi-soft.com/default.htm) type application for Linux? ---***
[05:54] <Bobsyagod> xenoNfluX, slight problem.
[05:55] <Bobsyagod> Apparently I don't get an internet connection when Ubuntu drops me to a terminal :)
[05:55] <Bobsyagod> So no apt-get for me.
[05:55] <britt> anybody know where I could get a wireless monitor app?
[05:55] <Alllleexx> JoseStefan: how do i use the "file____" ?  Sorry new to linux
[05:55] <glick> i never heard of him
[05:55] <wickedpuppy> Alllleexx, try file filename
[05:55] <supermiguel> how do i change my root password?
[05:55] <wickedpuppy> glick, he used to be a regular here
[05:55] <supermiguel> sudo -i?
[05:55] <JoseStefan> Alllleexx, example: file mypicture.jpg
[05:56] <Dr_willis> zer0moon,  look in  /usr/share/consolefonts     --------> example ussage  consolechars -f viscii10-8x16
[05:56] <Dr_willis> i think thats right zer0moon  :)
[05:56] <wickedpuppy> supermiguel, then passwd to change the password
[05:56] <glick> oh
[05:56] <john> do I go to the folder that it is in, then chmod and filename?
[05:56] <JoseStefan> supermiguel, you should be using sudo instead
[05:56] <xenoNfluX> bobsyagod, odd.... shouldn't need a GUI to gain a network connection
[05:56] <rpedro> wickedpuppy: don't recommend that here, please
[05:56] <supermiguel> so it will be su passwd?
[05:57] <Bobsyagod> xenoNfluX - All the same, I have no connection and no Xserver. :|
[05:57] <wickedpuppy> john, lets say you want to change permission of folder "test" , do chmod 777 test .. or whatever the permission number
[05:57] <Dr_willis> zer0moon,  try consolechars -d
[05:57] <rpedro> supermiguel: the way ubuntu works, you're supposed to use sudo programename whenever you need root access, for security sakes
[05:57] <britt> supermiguel: sudo passwd root
[05:57] <glick> i just bought the latest Programming Python book
[05:57] <wickedpuppy> rpedro, recommand what ? passwd or sudo ... he knows sudo -i himself ..
[05:57] <glick> cant wait to get some time to dive in it
[05:57] <JoseStefan> supermiguel, login in to root is disabled by default on ubuntu, because sudo is prefered
[05:57] <glick> i love python
[05:57] <xenoNfluX> bobsyagod, unfortunately I need to get to sleep... if you can get someone to help you get your internet connection up, you should be able to follow that How To and get X working again
[05:58] <john> where can I find out what the permission numbers mean?
[05:58] <Bobsyagod> Alright, thanks anyway Xenon :|
[05:58] <xenoNfluX> no problem :)
[05:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> Ok.
[05:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> So I have another problem. Haha
[05:58] <glick> john, the numbers are bit settings
[05:58] <Dr_willis> john,  some good linux tutorials, or the chmod man pages.
[05:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> Has anyone else dealt with the last.fm problems lately?
[05:58] <john> kk
[05:58] <glick> each set of three bits gives read write and execute permission to a diferent group
[05:59] <wickedpuppy> john, search on google for "unix permission"
[05:59] <wickedpuppy> or go here http://www.perlfect.com/articles/chmod.shtml
[05:59] <wickedpuppy> the first page i got from that link
[06:00] <zer0moon> Dr_willis, thanks, I tried it and the -f fonts, but its like it just doesnt display the upper ASCII
[06:00] <zer0moon> the block ones that you see in ascii/ansi art
[06:00] <Dr_willis> zer0moon,  you may have to try the other fonts.. i dont use BitchX.. so cant test.. i tend to use mc. and a lot of the times the fonts mess it up
[06:00] <john> will it mork fo changing permissions of folders?
[06:00] <Dr_willis> zer0moon,  the -d option set to the default font that seems to work for me
[06:01] <john> chmod 711 <foldername>?
[06:01] <jkf> how do i change the Access Point on eth1 that appears on my iwconfig? i have wireless
[06:01] <xenoNfluX> supermiguel, sudo passwd root
[06:01] <britt> whats a good wireless monitor utility for xf86

[06:02] <xenoNfluX> supermiguel, that won't allow you to log in as root, but you can still use su to switch to root after logging in
[06:02] <JoseStefan> john, you can use letters, it's easier
[06:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> !lastfm
[06:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lastfm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> !last.fm
[06:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about last.fm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> !alsa
[06:02] <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
[06:03] <Sktfeelsdapper> Is master mono suppose to be unchecked?
, say for a test folder, what would I put into terminal?
[06:04] <dhq> how do i configure my lm-sensors
[06:05] <JoseStefan> john, depends what permissions you want to change, you should read the manual for chmod (man chmod)
[06:05] <john> I want 711 for the file

[06:05] <Sktfeelsdapper> how about all these packages from apt-get i've been installing as root, is it possible to change them?
[06:05] <Sktfeelsdapper> so that i have permission to use them just in case?
[06:05] <Flannel> john: it's chmod perm file if you just want to set it
[06:05] <Frustrated_Noob> quick question, how do i get ubuntu to recognize linksys usb wireless?
[06:06] <JoseStefan> john, try:  sudo chmod 711 filename
[06:06] <jme> Frustrated_Noob: you'll probably want to use ndiswrapper
[06:06] <Flannel> Sktfeelsdapper: to change what? you're installing them as root, but everyone can use them
[06:06] <jme> google for more on that and you particular model
[06:06] <Sktfeelsdapper> oh ok just wondering.
[06:06] <Sktfeelsdapper> i just learned that alot of the problems i've been having is because i've been installing things under root.
[06:06] <Frustrated_Noob> ndiswrapper?  what is it and where can i get it?  other than knowing that it's on the livecd
[06:06] <Flannel> Sktfeelsdapper: you shouldn't be having any problems installing that way
[06:06] <Sktfeelsdapper> how do i find out if i have the right module for my soundcard via82xxx
[06:07] <Sktfeelsdapper> flannel, the problem was i was trying to create a launcher for nicotine, but it turns out that i didn't have permission to do it, only root did.
[06:07] <john> THANKS
[06:08] <john> 777 works
[06:08] <torchie> hmm
[06:08] <Sktfeelsdapper> But as soon as I changed everything in my home folder back, the launcher worked.
[06:08] <torchie> whenever the ubuntu cd gets to the 'uncompressing the kernel...' part it flashes 'failed to allocate mem resource' really quickly
[06:08] <torchie> then during install it stalls at 15% and freezes at 47%
[06:09] <torchie> what could cause that?
[06:09] <Sktfeelsdapper> so once again, how do i find out if i have the right kernel/module for my sound card?

[06:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> you gotta including .wine in the thing.
[06:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> \.wine\   just like that
[06:16] <Sktfeelsdapper> or whatever
[06:16] <john> what do you mean - please show me what I should put into terminal

[06:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> !wine
[06:17] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> first of all it's you gotta use \'s
[06:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> not /'s
[06:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> go to that page, it should help you at least putting the right thing in.
[06:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> don't forget it's a link to your "fake windows" folder.

[06:21] <Ma1> Hey IM planning to buy a laptop. I do 3D animation with Blender and I would like to install ubuntu. What would be the best laptop for me? Or what mark of laptop is known to be bugless with ubuntu?
[06:22] <sord444> anyone have the latest ubuntu on an ibook g4? i cant determine if when i close the lid if it is sleeping or not
[06:22] <micromoog> Mal: I'm on a Dell Latitude D610 here, and everything works perfectly with xubuntu
[06:23] <mister_roboto> micromoog: nvidia graphics?
[06:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> So substitute whatever you have for mine.
[06:23] <Ma1> micromoog what is the graphic card?
[06:24] <Ma1> micromoog, I had some problems with ati drivers so I would prefer nvidia
[06:24] <WhiteNoise> Ma1, just go through the componenets and check for compat. peice by peice.  Video, networking, mb chipset, touchpad, etc..  Dell w/ nvidia is usually a good bet
[06:24] <micromoog> It's the Intel one
[06:24] <griffiti93> hey everybody
[06:24] <micromoog> i915
[06:25] <Ma1> WhiteNoise, Ok thankyou, but how can I check for compatibility? Is there a section in the ubuntu website?
[06:25] <WhiteNoise> Ma1, it's more a matter of kernel (2.6) compatability, typically....
[06:25] <fender_freak01> i'm having some trouble with intel 2200bg working on a dell d505 with 6.06
[06:26] <WhiteNoise> wireless cards being maybe the biggest exception
[06:26] <Ma1> Whitenoise, what you mean?
[06:26] <fender_freak01> it will list networks in range and supposedly connect to them, but no internet and no router access
[06:26] <WhiteNoise> Ma1, I mean, it will be less an *ubuntu* thing and more of a linux thing.
[06:27] <Sktfeelsdapper> John did you try it?
[06:27] <Ma1> Ok, execpt for the wireless card
[06:27] <Sktfeelsdapper> Don't forget these "" <---
[06:27] <jasonjdp> Anybody know why the ubuntu installer freezes up when it goes graphical?  there are 2 errors just before the graphical installer pops up, "pci cannnot allocate resource region 3" and "cant read CTR while initializing i8042"
[06:27] <fender_freak01> any advice or anything to check
[06:27] <WhiteNoise> Ma1, http://www.linux-laptop.net/ <- for reviews of experiences with models.
[06:28] <jasonjdp> have never been able to install any version of ubuntu on this pc
[06:28] <benguin> hi there. anyone here using a asus-k8v mobo with an nvidia card?
[06:28] <Ma1> Whitenoise, thank you very much, I've been checking in linuxquestions.org for about an hour and I'm more confused than before :P

[06:30] <john> Sktfeelsdapper, then as soon as steam is up, It shutso down with the error I gave you
[06:30] <Sktfeelsdapper> Well nobody said wine was perfect.

[06:34] <Timmy|GDS> What directory are the dapper sources so i can change em to edgy
[06:34] <Sktfeelsdapper> I don't know, maybe it's not supported by Wine yet?
, any ideas?
[06:34] <Sktfeelsdapper> I'm deleting wine as we speak myself.

[06:39] <MikeyMike> via ssh
[06:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> Hey how do I remove a remote link on my desktop?
[06:40] <Sktfeelsdapper> Cause suddenly my second hard drive just appeared on my desktop and I don't need the link anymore.
[06:40] <wickedpuppy> nobody is answering ... so i go ..
[06:40] <wickedpuppy> Sktfeelsdapper, right click delete ?
[06:40] <ACU> guys, where SeverName should go in Apache 2.055?
[06:41] <MikeyMike> anything
[06:41] <Sktfeelsdapper> Well it's a remote link, so I'm afraid it's going to destroy my stuff.
[06:41] <Sktfeelsdapper> I don't know why my hard drive just suddenly appeared on my desk top.
[06:41] <wickedpuppy> MikeyMike, when you ssh , there will be a last login message .. Last login: Fri Sep 22 09:13:41 2006
[06:41] <MikeyMike> yeah but for yourself
[06:41] <MikeyMike> im talking about i want to know when someone else logged in last
[06:42] <wickedpuppy> Sktfeelsdapper, destroying the link won't destroy the stuff ...
[06:42] <Sktfeelsdapper> Ok.
[06:42] <Sktfeelsdapper> Can anyone tell me why my second hd just suddenly appeared on my desktop?
[06:42] <Sktfeelsdapper> I mean it's neat that it's there and all.
[06:42] <Sktfeelsdapper> That's what I wanted to begin with, but I have no idea how it got there.
[06:43] <wickedpuppy> suddenly appeared ? hmms ...
[06:43] <wickedpuppy> no idea
[06:43] <Sktfeelsdapper> I guess maybe it happened when I mounted it.
[06:44] <wickedpuppy> MikeyMike, try last command ...
[06:44] <wickedpuppy> thats what i can come up with for the last log in issue
[06:44] <MikeyMike> last command?
[06:44] <wickedpuppy> yah
[06:45] <wickedpuppy> command is "last"
[06:45] <wickedpuppy> lol
[06:45] <MikeyMike> this is all for MY user
[06:45] <MikeyMike> no?
[06:45] <MikeyMike> oh
[06:45] <MikeyMike> ok
[06:46] <wickedpuppy> MikeyMike, i can't test here cause i am the only user .. what ever i do all i see is my nick loggin in
[06:46] <wickedpuppy> lol
[06:46] <MikeyMike> wickedpuppy,  hmm
[06:46] <Sktfeelsdapper> Maybe I should try lastfm again, now that I have a grasp on things.
[06:46] <Sktfeelsdapper> Unless it suddenly decides not to work again.
[06:46] <MikeyMike> its only showing like the last 25 or so
[06:46] <MikeyMike> i want to see more
[06:47] <cipher_nemo> question, how do I get a root terminal window open in ubuntu? (or root access)?
[06:47] <Sktfeelsdapper> applications > accessories
[06:47] <Sktfeelsdapper> > terminal
[06:48] <cipher_nemo> that's not a "root" terminal
[06:48] <wickedpuppy> MikeyMike, try this last -n 100
[06:48] <briguyd> cipher_nemo, why do you want root?
[06:48] <MikeyMike> wickedpuppy,  did that already
[06:48] <JoseStefan> !tell cipher_nemo about root
[06:48] <MikeyMike> -n is the variable
[06:48] <briguyd> sudo works just as fine for most things
[06:48] <MikeyMike> it would be -50
[06:48] <MikeyMike> or -100
[06:48] <cipher_nemo> tI need root access to correct a silly mistake by ubuntu's apt-get gui
[06:48] <wickedpuppy> MikeyMike, oh
[06:48] <wickedpuppy> hmms ...
[06:48] <MikeyMike> cipher_nemo,  there's a program gsu
[06:48] <MikeyMike> or something like that
[06:49] <MikeyMike> i cant remember
[06:49] <cipher_nemo> what's sudo?
[06:49] <wickedpuppy> cipher_nemo, you mean synaptic ?
[06:49] <MikeyMike> fuck i cant remember
[06:49] <wickedpuppy> synaptic is always runs as root
[06:49] <MikeyMike> woops
[06:49] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: you mean synaptic? and there's gksu and gksudo; then on the console there's sudo, and to get to root you can do sudo -i, but it's not recommended
[06:49] <ladydoor> !language
[06:49] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:49] <MikeyMike> yeah GKSU
[06:49] <MikeyMike> thats it
[06:49] <cipher_nemo> yes, probably synaptic... it added the line "deb" in my sources.list... grrrr! I just want to remove it
[06:49] <cipher_nemo> and nothing after deb
[06:49] <MikeyMike> cipher_nemo,  use gksu
[06:49] <cipher_nemo> go figure
[06:49] <wickedpuppy> !tell cipher_nemo about sudo
[06:49] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: actually, it's easier to just edit your sources.list
[06:50] <cipher_nemo> k, thx :) I'll try those out
[06:50] <MikeyMike> cipher_nemo,  for root in gnome gksu
[06:50] <MikeyMike> i think
[06:50] <cipher_nemo> I want to edit it... I had the file open... I can't get root to change it
[06:50] <cipher_nemo> or to chmod 777 it
[06:50] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: back it up (sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak) and then edit it (sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list)
[06:50] <Ma1> Hey on a Dell Inspiron 1300 ( http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/products/compare.aspx/notebooks?c=ca&cs=CADHS1&l=fr&s=dhs&~ck=mn ) there's a video card name Intel Media Accelerator 900. What's that? Is a 3D acceleration card? I'm used to nvidia or ati.... Will this work with ubuntu?
[06:50] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: don't chmod it
[06:50] <MikeyMike> yeah
[06:50] <MikeyMike> listen to ladydoor
[06:50] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: just read the instructions i posted a couple of lines up
[06:50] <cipher_nemo> <--- forces his way through when it's an obvious fix :) I'd chmod it back, honest ;)
[06:51] <MikeyMike> thats your best bet :)
[06:51] <cipher_nemo> k, thx ladydoor
[06:51] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: then when you're done do sudo apt-get update to update it; if you get no errors, that's good news.
[06:51] <Frustrated_Noob> well, now to try the ndiswrapper, but apparently, my wireless should work anyway.
[06:51] <Sktfeelsdapper> anyone else using last fm here?
[06:51] <cipher_nemo> ladydoor: thx
[06:51] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: np
[06:51] <Sktfeelsdapper> i'd really honestly like to know why it isn't working for me.
[06:52] <daurn> hi all
[06:53] <daurn> i can't get into my computer
[06:53] <daurn> i installed kubuntu-desktop
[06:53] <daurn> and when i type in u/p
[06:53] <daurn> it won't go in
[06:53] <Sktfeelsdapper> rut-roh!
[06:53] <daurn> just goes back to login screen
[06:53] <Sktfeelsdapper> did you try username password
[06:53] <daurn> now, i'm in irssi, i can't figure the damn thing out
[06:53] <Sktfeelsdapper> just out of curiousity?
[06:53] <daurn> of course
[06:53] <ladydoor> daurn: can you get into another window manager or desktop environment? also, is caps lock on?
[06:53] <ladydoor> !language
[06:53] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:54] <daurn> i tried an incorrect one as well
[06:54] <Flannel> daurn: try changing your session, at GDM/KDM push the session button and select the other one
[06:54] <daurn> and it said i have incorrect password
[06:54] <ladydoor> daurn: (or was caps on when you installed)
[06:54] <Sktfeelsdapper> !shut up
[06:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about shut up - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:54] <Sktfeelsdapper> Haha
[06:54] <Sktfeelsdapper> j/k
[06:54] <daurn> i tried to go back to gnome
[06:54] <daurn> but it didn't work either
[06:54] <Flannel> daurn: what about their failsafe counterparts?
[06:54] <cipher_nemo> ladydoor et al: thx, the sudo works great! That was the only thing bugging me about ubuntu :)  The install process was so much better than Debian *shudder*
[06:54] <daurn> uh, how do i switch to another channel i'm in in irssi?
[06:55] <daurn> Flannel: i dunno
[06:55] <Flannel> daurn: alt-#
[06:55] <ladydoor> cipher_nemo: haha...good to know. glad stuff's working better now
[06:55] <Flannel> daurn: or /window [number] 
[06:55] <Sktfeelsdapper> the install process the first time is ok..haha
[06:55] <Sktfeelsdapper> the second or third time it's kinda well...
[06:55] <daurn> failsafe worked
[06:55] <ladydoor> daurn: (or alt-n/alt-p to cycle forwards/backwards)
[06:55] <daurn> but, its just a terminal
[06:55] <daurn> :S
[06:55] <Flannel> daurn: er, terminal? no not rescue mode, failsafe gnome
[06:55] <cipher_nemo> anyone using or has used MythTV in ubuntu?
[06:55] <daurn> ladydoor: that seems to go pageup/down
[06:55] <chico> What software will allow me to create screensaver for ubuntu
[06:56] <Sktfeelsdapper> How about Last.fm?
[06:56] <Sktfeelsdapper> Anybody with alsa having problems with last fm?
[06:56] <ladydoor> daurn: oh, right! by default it's control-n/control-p, but i remapped it so that C-n/C-p could be history
[06:56] <daurn> i can't find failsafe gnome
[06:56] <Flannel> daurn: under sessions?
[06:57] <daurn> is it E-Gnome?
[06:57] <Flannel> daurn: this is at GDM/KDM, not grub
[06:57] <Flannel> E-gnome?
[06:57] <Senesence> Can someone try and install this font http://www.netalive.org/tinkering/triskweline/ I tried everything to get it working but for some reason it's just not getting detected.
[06:57] <mister_roboto> guys, i just got this error on an "apt-get update"  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25472/   will it fix itself on some later update or do i need to do something?
[06:57] <daurn> Flannel: i'm looking in the login screen
[06:57] <Flannel> mister_roboto: yeah, looks like the us mirror is having troubles
[06:57] <daurn> i've currently got the kubuntu look there
[06:57] <ladydoor> mister_roboto: you might try removing the "us." part
[06:58] <wickedpuppy> !edgy
[06:58] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[06:58] <Flannel> mister_roboto: if you need packages that aren't available, change your sources to not include us.
[06:58] <ladydoor> mister_roboto: that certainly helped for my install
[06:58] <Flannel> daurn: and, the sessions button doesn't have failsafe options?
[06:58] <daurn> and i click menu->sessions->KDE/Gnome/Failsafe/E-Gnome etc
[06:58] <daurn> Flannel: correct
[06:58] <daurn> btw, can we go to a different channel or anything
[06:58] <tyler_d> anyone know how I can sync my ipod using amarok?
[06:58] <Flannel> daurn: What is e-gnome?  and, what does failsafe boot into? kde or gnome?
[06:58] <daurn> most lines are too long in irssi
[06:59] <daurn> and its impossible to read with others talking
[06:59] <daurn> :S
[06:59] <ladydoor> daurn: that's what callings-out are for
[06:59] <daurn> Failsafe goes into a Terminal
[06:59] <Flannel> terminal?  that's odd.  You're using ubuntu? dapper? or what?
[06:59] <chico> What software will allow me to create screensaver for ubuntu
[06:59] <daurn> dapper
[06:59] <Sktfeelsdapper> !repositories
[06:59] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[06:59] <Sktfeelsdapper> How about those repositories aren't any good?
[07:00] <ladydoor> Sktfeelsdapper: eh? could you rephrase your question?
[07:00] <oem> anyone mind pinging my server for a sec?
[07:00] <britt> anybody know how to change the default resolution in xfce? I'm in a real tight spot right now and could use some help
[07:00] <daurn> Nothing seems to work
[07:00] <mister_roboto> thanks Flannel and ladydoor, that did it (removing us.)
[07:00] <daurn> i can't get into any guis
[07:00] <daurn> :S
[07:00] <ladydoor> mister_roboto: great!
[07:00] <britt> i'm just looking for a file path
[07:01] <oem> www.fashion-in-china.com 204.16.193.146 <- ping me pls
[07:01] <ladydoor> daurn: it's helpful to say the nick of whomever you're talking to
[07:01] <CorpseFeeder> hello! Can someone please tell me the link to the page which has the instructions for installing the restricted formats for playing DVDs and quicktime movies and stuff???
[07:01] <khaije1> britt: tried ctrl+alt plus plus
[07:01] <khaije1> ?
[07:01] <ladydoor> !codecs > CorpseFeeder
[07:01] <daurn> ladydoor: i don't know who
[07:01] <wickedpuppy> daurn, you just did
[07:01] <CorpseFeeder> thank you
[07:01] <wickedpuppy> lol
[07:01] <Senesence> No matter what I do I can't seem to install a PCF font. I place in in the /usr/share/fonts dir, I run fc-cache, but I still get nothing.
[07:02] <daurn> wickedpuppy: with my problem ;)
[07:02] <ladydoor> daurn: ok, let's try this:  sudo aptitude install fluxbox . Then try to log in to that
[07:02] <britt> khaije1: well theres a program to change it within the session
[07:02] <daurn> i tried fluxbox
[07:02] <britt> but my screen supports 800x600
[07:02] <daurn> it won't get in either
[07:02] <britt> and somehow my default res is 1024x768
[07:02] <britt> causes major problems when i go to login
[07:02] <tyler_d> mounting an ipod in amarok?
[07:03] <daurn> no GNOME, no KDE, no fluxbox, no enlightenment... none of them
[07:03] <khaije1> britt: the command i mentioned can be used within the session...
[07:03] <ladydoor> daurn: ok, how about this:  ls /usr/share/xsessons/
[07:03] <ladydoor> daurn: does anything come up?
[07:03] <daurn> uh
[07:03] <britt> khaije1: i need it outside of the session
[07:03] <daurn> where do i type it?
[07:03] <britt> liek gdm sort of mode
[07:03] <Sktfeelsdapper> so how do i find out if i have the right modules for my soundcard?
[07:03] <ladydoor> daurn: in the terminal you said you were in...
[07:04] <kuja> heh... I can't get sound working for crap
[07:04] <britt> and plus that doesnt work for some reason anyway
[07:04] <devicenull> okay, my laptop did it again
[07:04] <daurn> i'll do it in ctrl+alt+F4
[07:04] <britt> i cant figure out these keys
[07:04] <khaije1> oh, adjust the xorg.conf file?
[07:04] <devicenull> ~75% of the way through teh install
[07:04] <ladydoor> daurn: you might want to check out gnu screen...it'll make your life easier
[07:04] <devicenull> I think it tries to start X, and fails
[07:04] <Senesence> Is there any special trick to installing a PCF font on ubuntu? Does anyone know? I just can't seem to get it.
[07:04] <picochu> hi folks , how does one change the default python shell?
[07:04] <britt> khaije1: talking to me?
[07:04] <daurn> ladydoor: yeah
[07:04] <devicenull> but it ends up at a black screen with two white boxes on it
[07:04] <daurn> ladydoor: 13 of them
[07:04] <kuja> picochu, sudo update-alternatives --config python
[07:05] <Flannel> devicenull: which installer are you using?
[07:05] <picochu> thnx
[07:05] <kuja> You're welcome
[07:05] <ladydoor> !gnome
[07:05] <ubotu> gnome is a project that provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for end-users, users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop.
[07:05] <khaije1> britt: yup
[07:05] <devicenull> netinst
[07:05] <ladydoor> daurn: hmmm...ok, just a sec
[07:05] <devicenull> Flannel, netinstaller
[07:05] <kuja> I have a problem with getting sound working. I can't hear sound from flash in Firefox, but I can hear sound when playing some system sounds through GNOME's sound properties thing from System->Preferences->Sound
[07:05] <devicenull> via PXE, but I don't think that matters
[07:06] <Flannel> devicenull: no, so... that's the alternate.  No, it won't try to start X at all until everything is installed
[07:06] <Flannel> devicenull: and restarted
[07:06] <ladydoor> does anybody know what the name of the actual GNOME desktop (or KDE desktop) is? I'm *not* asking about the metapackage, and ubotu didn't return anything useful.
[07:06] <britt> khaije1: thanks.
[07:06] <britt> :)
[07:06] <daurn> i really need to get in :S i have some urgent stuff to do :(
[07:06] <kuja> ladydoor, gnome-window-decorator?
[07:06] <devicenull> Flannel, well.. a little before the install is done, the screen goes black with two white boxes
[07:06] <Senesence> kuja: Perhaps the flash movie you are playing requires a higher flash version. Currently flash 7 is the highest linux supports.
[07:07] <khaije1> britt: does that answer your question? afaik, xfce doesn't have a resolution config built in :-/
[07:07] <Flannel> ladydoor: what do you mean? gnome-desktop is a conglomeration of meta packages? what are you looking for?  gnome proper is in universe
[07:07] <ladydoor> kuja: not in the repositories
[07:07] <devicenull> the problem is, the install has not completed to a point where I can reboot and log in
[07:07] <kuja> Senesence: It was working before. I'm trying stuff from myspace and youtube that both worked on a different computer (using LiveCD)
[07:07] <daurn> ladydoor: ?
[07:07] <ladydoor> Flannel: i'm trying to figure out what to tell daurn to dpkg-reconfigure
[07:07] <Flannel> ladydoor: ah, let me take a look
[07:08] <ladydoor> Flannel: doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop will only reconfigure the meta-package and probably won't rewrite the .desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions
[07:08] <devicenull> any suggestions?
[07:08] <Senesence> kuja: Did you use EasyUbuntu to get flash player?
[07:08] <daurn> ladydoor: i have 13 .desktop things in there
[07:08] <kuja> Senesence: No, I did a manual install using the flash-installer distributed by Adobe/Macromedia
[07:08] <kuja> And it was working fine.
[07:08] <jasonjdp> Anybody know why the ubuntu installer freezes up when it goes graphical?  there are 2 errors just before the graphical installer pops up, "pci cannnot allocate resource region 3" and "cant read CTR while initializing i8042"
[07:08] <daurn> can i change the login screen to something else?
[07:08] <ladydoor> daurn: right. and there seems to be some kind of problem with them...oh, wait a sec! are you using gdm, kdm, or xdm?
[07:08] <Flannel> ladydoor: might try gnome-session
[07:09] <kuja> What does EasyUbuntu do that I did differently, Senesence?
[07:09] <devicenull> I dont suppose that the installer brings up a SSH server by default?
[07:09] <ladydoor> Flannel: thanks muchly
[07:09] <daurn> (this is the first time i've seen the kubuntu thing - previouly i've gotten what i *think* is the gnome one)
[07:09] <devicenull> because then I could get in and figure out whats going on
[07:09] <daurn> ladydoor: *dm ?????????????
[07:09] <Senesence> kuja: Yea, I know it was working fine, but maybe EasyUbuntu installs something else for sound that the flash player doesn't by itself.
[07:09] <Flannel> ladydoor: or nautilus, if that doesnt
[07:09] <ladydoor> daurn: ok, try this:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm kdm xdm gnome-session nautilus
[07:09] <Senesence> kuja: It's worth a try.
[07:09] <kuja> Okay
[07:09] <ladydoor> daurn: and then try getting into gnome again.
[07:10] <ladydoor> Flannel: thanks
[07:10] <devicenull> I guess there's no solution to this?
[07:10] <daurn> uh, nothing much happneded
[07:10] <ladydoor> devicenull: just because nobody knows doesn't mean there's no solution--just that we don't know.
[07:10] <Senesence> Heh, and I'm stuck on installing a pcf font. Figures.
[07:11] <Flannel> devicenull: you'd have to know more about the problem, no, no SSH server by default, old server installs did
[07:11] <ladydoor> daurn: you still can't get in?
[07:11] <devicenull> I cant think of any way to figure out whats going on
[07:11] <devicenull> I can't get into any of the remote consoles
[07:11] <Flannel> daurn: you didn't get sent to a place that asks you a bunch of questions?
[07:11] <devicenull> *alternate
[07:11] <devicenull> I can't kill the running process
[07:11] <daurn> Flannel: i got 1 question
[07:11] <devicenull> I basically can do nothing but hit the power button
[07:11] <daurn> it was: choose, kdm or gdm
[07:11] <daurn> i picked gdm
[07:11] <Flannel> devicenull: you might try checking launchpad for a bugreport
[07:12] <Flannel> daurn: try that same line, but without the gdm/kdm/xdm thing, just gnome-session
[07:12] <ladydoor> daurn: cool. finish it out, then try to log into gnome
[07:12] <devicenull> one question, is it possible to go from a server install to a desktop install?
[07:12] <devicenull> because the server one completes sucessfully
[07:12] <khaije1> devicenull: i've had to do that many times
[07:12] <ladydoor> devicenull: sudo aptitude install *buntu-desktop (*=u/ku/xu)
[07:12] <devicenull> ok, I'll do it that way
[07:13] <devicenull> thx
[07:13] <ladydoor> devicenull: np
[07:13] <Flannel> devicenull: you'll also have to swap kernels, the server install installs one that isn't well suited for desktop usage
[07:13] <devicenull> I'm planning on recompiling it anyway
[07:13] <Senesence> Can someone tell me how to install a pcf font :)
[07:13] <ladydoor> !repeat

[07:15] <ladydoor> oem: why?
[07:15] <fgh_lo> hi. im resetting my smb share but if i do 'smbpasswd -L sambauser' i get 'failed to find entry user sambauser'

[07:16] <cipher_nemo> can I install Debian packages (ubuntu 6.06.1 is built upon Debian, but which version, sarge or etch?)
[07:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> I have an interesting question
[07:17] <FunnyLookinHat> cipher_nemo, it is strongly NOT recommended to add debian repos to your sources.list
[07:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> I had a remote link on my desktop that I deleted.
[07:17] <ladydoor> daurn: ok, desperate times call for desparate measures. do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ; sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
[07:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> To my second hd
[07:17] <harisund> cipher_nemo, in general, binary compatibility might not be maintained.
[07:17] <ladydoor> daurn: we're going to try to log you in using startx
[07:17] <cipher_nemo> FunnyLookinHat: I need to to run MythTV and install lame
[07:17] <Sktfeelsdapper> Now all the sudden I can't get into my hd from the command line
[07:18] <Sktfeelsdapper> from the desktop
[07:18] <FunnyLookinHat> cipher_nemo, mythTV is in ubuntu multiverse repositories
[07:18] <daurn> ladydoor: this is particulary hard... since i can't copy/paste
[07:18] <FunnyLookinHat> !multiverse
[07:18] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[07:18] <cipher_nemo> harisund: MythTV is a source distribution, not binary... but lame is binary
[07:18] <Flannel> !mythtv
[07:18] <ubotu> mythtv is for watching TV in Linux.  Check out http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/16/instructions-to-install-mythtv/
[07:18] <ladydoor> daurn: that's why you should use gnu screen.
[07:18] <cipher_nemo> cool, thx!
[07:18] <oem> mythtv is on digg
[07:18] <oem> :)
[07:18] <ladydoor> daurn: luckily, there's tab-completion in bash
[07:18] <FunnyLookinHat> cipher_nemo, you can also get LAME on the multiverse repositories irrc
[07:18] <oem> u can see a video on how to set it up
[07:18] <daurn> ladydoor: gnu screen?
[07:18] <fgh_lo> is it possible to add samba users using this method? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588&highlight=sftp
[07:19] <daurn> ladydoor: your message is already 3 page ups away
[07:19] <ladydoor> daurn: it multiplexes a terminal and comes with other features, like copy/paste.
[07:19] <cipher_nemo> ahh, ubuntu xchat is so much better than Debian's binary of it... I love the "open link in browser" from right click :)
[07:19] <harisund> cipher_nemo, the Xchat build I am using on my Windows box works the same way too :) ...I thought it worked in Debian as well.. hmmm...
[07:19] <ladydoor> daurn: for the moment, however, you can just scroll back up to it and enter it from there.
[07:19] <picochu> kuja i tried update-alternatives --list python but i don't get anything listed
[07:19] <fgh_lo> anyone?
[07:20] <cipher_nemo> harisund: nope, it only has "copy link"

[07:24] <Senesence> Is there some special trick to installing a pcf font on ubuntu?
[07:24] <ladydoor> daurn: then see my paste: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25476/
[07:25] <daurn> i can't get to web
[07:25] <daurn> links is broken
[07:25] <ladydoor> daurn: you're in irc--you have internet
[07:25] <tyler_d> Flannel: its a wmp54gs
[07:25] <Rondom> Senesence: I'm not sure, but if I remember it correctly you have to  convert it with a tool
[07:25] <ladydoor> daurn: oh. in that case, install w3m:  sudo aptitude install w3m
[07:25] <Senesence> Rondom: Conver to what?
[07:25] <daurn> ladydoor: i'm console only, and i ave no browser :P
[07:25] <Rondom> Senesence: pcf2bdf or pcftobdf...., can't remember
[07:26] <herman_munster> how can i record all sounds that play on my system. eg if i can hear it from my speakers, it is recorded
[07:26] <valehru> Is there anyplace I can get KIVO stencil sets for free?
[07:26] <ladydoor> daurn: links is text-based. as is w3m--which is why i suggested you install it.
[07:26] <ladydoor> daurn: see also my suggestion "sudo aptitude install w3m"
[07:26] <Senesence> Rondom: It said bdf to pcf, but it doesnt detect pcf for some reason, and it should.
[07:26] <harisund> daurn, didn't you get my PM? I just PMed you what ladydoor had posted
[07:26] <Flannel> !tell Senesence about font

[07:29] <keiron> someone please help me. i screwed up and now i get the error 'keiron is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.'. how does one add a user to the sudoers file?
[07:29] <daurnimator> i think when i restart, i'll get the same problem
[07:29] <Rondom> Senesence: there's a tool called pcf2bdf, it's in debian, but not in ubuntu
[07:29] <hastesaver> Shouldn't it be possible to capture soundcard's output to a file? Windows had programs for this... :(
[07:30] <natsk> how do i play mp3 and wma files on ubuntu?
[07:30] <Rondom> Senesence: maybe the debian package works, or compile yourself
[07:30] <ladydoor> daurnimator: sudo aptitude remove --purge kdm
[07:30] <wickedpuppy> !mp3
[07:30] <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
[07:30] <ladydoor> daurnimator: that will get rid of kdm, and it's alright to uninstall kubuntu-desktop
[07:30] <Senesence> Rondom: pcf is supposed to work according to the tutorial in ubuntu docs.
[07:30] <daurnimator> it is?
[07:30] <Senesence> !font
[07:30] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[07:30] <daurnimator> i like kubuntu
[07:31] <whitedeth> I'm having a really ugly bug with ubuntu
[07:31] <ladydoor> daurnimator: as that package is only used during dist-upgrades...the "real" kde is actually many packages--kubuntu-desktop just installs them all.
[07:31] <whitedeth> anyone care to explain what's goin on?
[07:31] <Rondom> Senesence: ok
[07:31] <whitedeth> Everytime I access a website with flash content on it, it'll automatically close my firefox web browser.
[07:31] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, not till you tell us what's happening :P
[07:31] <daurnimator> ok
[07:31] <whitedeth> I've tried re-installing flash to no avail.
[07:31] <wickedpuppy> whitedeth, we see lots of flash problems ...
[07:31] <whitedeth> I know, Adobe sucks :(
[07:31] <wickedpuppy> btw its not ubuntu bug ... since it can also be on kubuntu or on any linux
[07:32] <whitedeth> but now I cant access a single website I want to?!
[07:32] <fgh_lo> can someone help me w/ my samba share?
[07:32] <Sktfeelsdapper> my flash is all kindsa screwed up.
[07:32] <ladydoor> keiron: do you still have a user in the sudoers file?
[07:32] <Sktfeelsdapper> actually i don't know if it's just linux
[07:32] <ladydoor> keiron: (i.e., a user who can sudo?)
[07:32] <whitedeth> well, whatever heh, im in Ubuntu, so it's a bug im having in Ubuntu ;)
[07:32] <whitedeth> So anyway, anyone got any suggestions other than reinstalling Dapper? :|
[07:32] <keiron> ladydoor: no, but I have a script that is run as root every 24 hours that i can put commands in to sort this problem out :)
[07:32] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, do you have any bookmarks or firefox settings you wish to keep?
[07:32] <Sktfeelsdapper> well my other half has windows and it's all outta sync for him.
[07:32] <Senesence> whitedeth: Reinstall flash...again.
[07:33] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ simply one bookmark.
[07:33] <ladydoor> keiron: you have access to this script as a normal user, but it's run as root? that's dangerous.
[07:33] <hastesaver> whitedeth, you can, of course, get the Flashblock extension for Firefox ;-)
[07:33] <keiron> ladydoor: basically, i used usermod to try and add a group and it removed all my groups and just added the one i requested
[07:33] <whitedeth> hastesaver: Seeing as how I'm a freelance flash designer...that isnt exactly practical :P
[07:33] <hastesaver> whitedeth, or use a different browser, which may not have that problem (konqueror, epiphany, galeon, ...)
[07:33] <Sktfeelsdapper> my flash is outta sink but hey, i got it working with 2 thigns at once.
[07:33] <Ma1> hey does anyone know a little about macbooks?
[07:33] <whitedeth> Konqueror on Ubuntu?
[07:33] <Sktfeelsdapper> is master mono suppose to be unchecked btw?
[07:33] <whitedeth> isnt it Kubuntu only??
[07:33] <ladydoor> keiron: yeah, that's a problem. you need to put yourself into the admin group, and then you'll be able to sudo again.
[07:33] <Senesence> whitedeth: You can design flach on linux?
[07:34] <whitedeth> Senesence, no I have more than one computer.
[07:34] <tyler_d> how do I enable a wireless card through term?
[07:34] <keiron> ladydoor: aah, thank you! i added myself to the sudo group but not admin :)
[07:34] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, ok, there's a folder called .mozilla in /home/username/ rename it to .mozilla2 and then "sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree"
[07:34] <keiron> thanks ladydoor
[07:34] <ladydoor> keiron: yeah, it's tricky. good luck!
[07:34] <whitedeth> tyler_d: sudo ifconfig <interface> up
[07:34] <hastesaver> whitedeth, installing it will download the kdelibs too (if you haven't already installed some KDE app like Amarok or k3b), but it will run fine on your GNOME desktop
[07:34] <Ma1> what's the video card in a macbook?
[07:35] <DarkMageZ> Ma1, it's an intel i950 iirc
[07:35] <FunnyLookinHat> Ma1, i believe it's intel 950
[07:35] <ladydoor> Ma1: install pciutils and then do lspci...that should give you some useful (but confusing) info :-)
[07:35] <Sktfeelsdapper> I wanna know if because i removed my remote link from second hd to the desktop if it's going to effect anything because i can't get to it via the terminal and desktop where it was
[07:35] <hastesaver> whitedeth, Ubuntu and Kubuntu are just names for what desktop they have by default; you can run either on the other :)
[07:35] <whitedeth> oh
[07:35] <natsk> thanks
[07:35] <Ma1> I don't have a macbook, I'm shopping right now
[07:35] <whitedeth> DarkMagez: Done.
[07:35] <tyler_d> whitedeth: what if my wireless card shows up in the network manager and not through that?
[07:36] <Ma1> intel 950 seems to be everywhere in the laptops
[07:36] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, ok, now visit a page with flash on it
[07:36] <whitedeth> tyler_d: What card?
[07:36] <Ma1> does it works with 3D?
[07:36] <natsk> where do i find drivers for my printer?
[07:36] <tyler_d> whitedeth: wmp54gs
[07:36] <whitedeth> tyler_id:  sudo iwlist scan
[07:36] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, it's not a bad graphics card...  works well enough.   But you won't be able to play any games with cedega I don't think
[07:36] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, no crashie?
[07:36] <hastesaver> natsk, ideally, you shouldn't need them; they should be recognised automatically... have you tried seeing if it works already?
[07:37] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: No :D
[07:37] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, no flash?
[07:37] <Ma1> I don't need games, I'm a 3D animator
[07:37] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Lemme try a page that's flash-only.
[07:37] <Ma1> I do 3D motion pictures with blender
[07:37] <tyler_d> whitedeth: none support scanning
[07:37] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, homestarrunner =D
[07:37] <SS2> how can I manualy check the ext3 system? so that it doesn't always check on booting (that 30x check force)
[07:37] <fgh_lo> i have 1 user acct on my box. i want to create a seprate acct only for samba users. is this possible using the '/bin/false' method?
[07:38] <whitedeth> tyler_id: Your computer/laptop isnt detecting your WiFi device.
[07:38] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, most laptop graphics cards won't do that too well (except for the high end ATI / nVidia cards)
[07:38] <ladydoor> SS2: well, you can set a partition to not check...
[07:38] <whitedeth> tyler_d: Cant help you more, maybe someone with more experience than me can. Sorry..
[07:38] <hastesaver> SS2, tune2fs or something...
[07:38] <SS2> ladydoor: bad idea
[07:38] <ladydoor> SS2: it's not recommended at all, but it's possible and easy.
[07:38] <tyler_d> whitedeth: but it shows up in my network manager?
[07:38] <ladydoor> SS2: right.
[07:38] <whitedeth> when the hell is flash player 9 coming out??
[07:38] <ladydoor> !language
[07:38] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:38] <SS2> well I want to do it manualy, not on the boot time
[07:38] <ladydoor> why is everybody cursing so much tonight?
[07:39] <iLLf8d> heh
[07:39] <SS2> *g*
[07:39] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, flash 9 beta is coming soon :P
[07:39] <whitedeth> "hell" is cursing?? :|
[07:39] <tyler_d> ladydoor: cause my wireless card isn't working
[07:39] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, yes, stop it please
[07:39] <MistaED> ma1: we must talk sometime :P
[07:39] <ladydoor> whitedeth: in that context, yes.
[07:39] <Senesence> ladydoor: Not me
[07:39] <whitedeth> sorry, didnt realize I was in #christian.
[07:39] <SS2> boykott flash -.-
[07:39] <Ma1> FunnyLookinHat, alright... that's too bad because there's a big difference in price between a laptop with intel950 and one with a ati or nvidia card
[07:39] <ladydoor> whitedeth: you're not. just give it a rest.
[07:39] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, the code of conduct has something about not offending people :P
[07:39] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Homestarrunner, page asks me to download flash plugin.
[07:40] <fgh_lo> i have 1 user acct on my box. i want to create a seprate acct only for samba users. is this possible using the '/bin/false' method? anyone?
[07:40] <Kream> hi all
[07:40] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, as you should expect  : )     If you REALLY want a good graphics card in your laptop get the new nVidia 7900 Mobile (or something similiar) but it will run you about an extra 400
[07:40] <whitedeth> Naw, im just being difficult, sorry. Wont happen again.
[07:40] <Kream> I can't seem to enable colours in my vim installation and it's driving me nuts
[07:40] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, ok good. change .mozilla2 back to .mozilla
[07:40] <Ma1> MistaED, what do you wanna talk about?
[07:40] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, You will also want to get 2GB of ram probably, just a suggestion.
[07:40] <iLLf8d> whitedeth, ladydoor is a bit touchy
[07:40] <DarkMageZ> and then rerun firefox
[07:40] <Senesence> Soo, anyone know how to install a pcf font on ubuntu?
[07:40] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Item could not be renamed.
[07:40] <MistaED> ma1: 3d animation, i'm into it as well just with maya though
[07:40] <iLLf8d> sorry that might be construed as offensive to those who have a sense of touch
[07:41] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, close firefox. delete .mozilla then rename .mozilla2 to .mozilla
[07:41] <SS2> ah, wont't bring anything since no partition is ment to be mountet at check time
[07:41] <SS2> *won't
[07:41] <Slynderdale> http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/06/29/2318251
[07:41] <Slynderdale> Ack
[07:41] <wickedpuppy> MistaED, you know where to get maya for linux ? there was someone asking for it a few days ago
[07:42] <Slynderdale> What version is the Ubuntu Linux kernal?
[07:42] <whitedeth> 6.10
[07:42] <whitedeth> ?
[07:42] <Ma1> FunnyLookinHat, yeah... but could I buy the card separatly and install it? I know laptops at all.. I don't even know if you can open them...
[07:42] <fgh_lo> i find that 837 users don't know the answer to my question.
[07:42] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Homestarrunner just exited the browser again :|
[07:42] <ladydoor> Slynderdale: uname -r
[07:42] <whitedeth> :(
[07:42] <wickedpuppy> Linux wickedpuppy 2.6.15-27-386 #1 PREEMPT Sat Sep 16 01:51:59 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[07:42] <DarkMageZ> Slynderdale, 2.6.15 for dapper / 2.6.17 for edgy
[07:42] <wickedpuppy> fgh_lo, 836 .. ubotu is a bot
[07:42] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, ok, rename .mozilla to .mozilla2
[07:43] <Ma1> MistaED, cool, do you have a hotmail account? would get in contact
[07:43] <binary_goofy> hi room! am trying to get sound working on railroad tyoon 2. can somebody pls help???
[07:43] <ladydoor> Senesence: what type of package is the font in, and is there a comparable package in the repositories?
[07:43] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Done.
[07:43] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, no not likely.  Laptops are pre-built very particularly and unless you have a lot of money and skill you won't be able to install one.
[07:43] <o0vapermonkey0o> does wow work with wine having problems loading char
[07:43] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, it would cost you more money to do it separately on your own than when you originally purchase the machine.
[07:43] <Senesence> ladydoor: tar.gz when extracted its pcf. Can't find anything like it in synaptic. It this font here http://www.netalive.org/tinkering/triskweline/
[07:44] <iLLf8d> binary_goofy, that might be a tough one given how long ago that was ported and how long ago loki went under
[07:44] <hastesaver> fgh_lo, what is the "/bin/false method"? `false` is just a command to do nothing and return false; what method are you speaking of?
[07:44] <FunnyLookinHat> o0vapermonkey0o, try #wine or #cedega     they would know
[07:44] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, ok, open synaptic package manager and search for "flashplugin" and tell me what version it says is available
[07:44] <Ma1> FunnyLookinHat, that's too bad, I like to open my pc and change things, and upgrade..
[07:44] <fgh_lo> hastesaver: is it possible to add samba users using this method? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588&highlight=sftp
[07:44] <Sktfeelsdapper> So how come it shows my hdb1 (second hard drive) on my desktop, but the files inside I can only get to from it's real location?
[07:44] <o0vapermonkey0o> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=5606 is the page i need help with the nvidia part at the bottom
[07:44] <iLLf8d> binary_goofy, have you gotten it working with any newer nixes lately?
[07:44] <MistaED> ma1: yep just check the pm/query
[07:45] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, as do I.  Laptops are just a different story all together.  I service laptops as a consultant but I do not EVER work on laptops (hardly ever, that is) simply because they are so difficult and not worth the time.
[07:45] <hastesaver> Does anyone if it there is a way to capture soundcard's output to a file? Windows had programs for this, but I got rid of it 6 months ago :(
[07:45] <Sktfeelsdapper> like say if i want to download music to a specific folder inside my second hd, i have to go /media/hdb1
[07:45] <ladydoor> Senesence: hmmm. i would suggest posting a quesiton on the forums. however, it *may* be possible to put it into one of your font dirs and then run sudo update-fonts-dir on it...
[07:45] <iLLf8d> anyone know if the oss compatibility layer is enabled in ubuntu?
[07:45] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: List of 48 packages :|
[07:45] <eviltux> gnite all
[07:45] <ladydoor> Senesence: however, i'm not sure whether this would have a detrimental effect or not.
[07:45] <o0vapermonkey0o> i am asking there also
[07:45] <Llewxam> anyone could help me re-set the access to my workgroup computers in dapper? can't seem to be able to anymore.
[07:45] <binary_goofy> iLL: true, but there has to b some fix to it. reading d forums, came across others who solved d issue, but that method didn't work for me. am running ubuntu 6.06 now. sound works fine on everything else.
[07:46] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: flashplugin-nonfree Latest Version available is 7.0.63.3ubuntu3
[07:46] <Kream> does anyone here have colours working in vim ?
[07:46] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, ah :) here we go
[07:46] <iLLf8d> binary_goofy, I dunno if ubuntu ships with the oss compat stuff turned on (that may/may not help)
[07:46] <ladydoor> Senesence: the font-dirs can be found in /usr/share/X11/fonts. but if you do this without posting to the forums first, *be careful*
[07:46] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: You know the problem?
[07:46] <iLLf8d> binary_goofy, dunno how kernel savvy you are but there are kernel options for the oss stuff
[07:46] <Ma1> FunnyLookinHat, I would like to stay far from laptops but I'm going on a trip for 9 months and I just need it... I've been shopping in the web and 2 candidates have got my attention : Dell and Apple
[07:47] <Senesence> ladydoor: Did something like that. Placed it in the /usr/share/fonts , and ran fc-cache -f -v. Did nothing. Already posted a question on the forums http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=269528 no answer.
[07:47] <Ma1> MistaED, you'll have to tell me what mean pm/query
[07:47] <binary_goofy> iLL: i have OSS, ALSA both installed. have tried choosing both thru gstreamer, but doesn't help.
[07:47] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, "wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-nonfree_7.0.68~ubuntu2~dapper1_i386.deb" then "sudo dpkg -i flashplug"(tab)
[07:47] <hastesaver> fgh_lo, oh, that. Easiest is to go to System->Administration->Users and groups (or whatever it's called), add a new user, and set the user's shell (from /bin/bash) to /bin/false.
[07:47] <ladydoor> Senesence: hmmmm. odd.
[07:47] <Llewxam> anyone could help me re-set the access to my workgroup computers in dapper? can't seem to be able to anymore.
[07:48] <FunnyLookinHat> Mal, the Dell XPS line would probably have the performance you want
[07:48] <Kream> mm
[07:48] <iLLf8d> Ma1, hey I got  a dell its nice and all but the touchpad is a bit touchy and the airflow setup isn't the best (ie if you jam up the bottom of it with pant legs)
[07:48] <MistaED> ma1: what irc client are you using? there should be a tab with my name
[07:48] <Kream> maybe i'm asking the wrong question here... does anyone here even USE vim ?
[07:48] <Senesence> ladydoor: Yea I could always try the ttf version, but isnt pcf supposed to be better?
[07:48] <hastesaver> Kream, "syntax on" in ~/.vimrc
[07:48] <ladydoor> Senesence: i don't know.
[07:48] <Ma1> MistaED, I'm using gaim.. I'll check this out
[07:49] <iLLf8d> binary_goofy, I dunno what to tellya I was just gonna recommend you enable oss in case that might be the issue other then that I dunno
[07:49] <Senesence> ladydoor: No problem, thanks for taking a look at it though.
[07:49] <tyler_d> ok... so a wmp54gs in a piano antec case will not seat properly....
[07:49] <fgh_lo> hastesaver: but i get the error 'failed to find entry for user samba user' and 'failed to modify password' when adding a samba user
[07:49] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: installing now :)
[07:49] <Kream> hastesaver: thank you :)
[07:49] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, good. once it's installed. visit homestar again :)
[07:50] <fgh_lo> hastesaver: using 'sudo smbpasswd -L sambauser'
[07:50] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: heh, should I rename .mozilla2 back to .mozilla though?
[07:50] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, it should either crash or not crash
[07:50] <binary_goofy> iLL: thanx :) but tried it already.
[07:50] <Ma1> iLLf8d, thanks for the info
[07:50] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, definantly not :P
[07:50] <whitedeth> oh
[07:50] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, we will get to your bookmark soon :)
[07:50] <iLLf8d> Ma1, oh and one more thing if you get the dell they won't shipya any cds unless you request them and they'll chargeya like $25 delivery cost
[07:50] <hastesaver> fgh_lo, did that username have spaces in it? That's usually a mess (you have to escape spaces with backslashes, etc...) Try adding another user (from the GUI I told you) without a space
[07:51] <iLLf8d> Ma1, assuming you're like me and wipe the hd first thing
[07:51] <iLLf8d> Ma1, do you have any osx experience?
[07:51] <Ma1> iLLf8d, yes, but I don't need their cds for that
[07:51] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: I presume I have to restart FF?
[07:51] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, it's a good idea
[07:51] <Ma1> iLLf8d, no I have none
[07:52] <iLLf8d> Ma1, you gotta watch it then seems people either really love osx or hate it
[07:52] <iLLf8d> Ma1, unless you plan on nuking it and just using the hw
[07:52] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Crashed.
[07:52] <mneptok> *boing*
[07:52] <Ma1> iLLf8d I tried it very very quicly at futureshop :P and I didn't liked it very much
[07:52] <whitedeth> flash hates me :(
[07:52] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, are you currently running xgl or aiglx?
[07:53] <fgh_lo> hastesaver: i did, but im still getting that error
[07:53] <iLLf8d> its got alot of nice features but the staticness of the gui setup gets on my nerves and its borglike qualities can be scary
[07:53] <hastesaver> fgh_lo, do you know what exactly you're doing?
[07:53] <Ma1> iLLf8d, though it is a very good os for graphist which I plan to be..
[07:53] <iLLf8d> although I know alot of nixers who try it and love it
[07:53] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, i'd suggest disabling it and trying again. some people have had issues with those technologies and flash player 7
[07:53] <fgh_lo> hastesaver: yes. i did this before
[07:53] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Know how to disable it?
[07:54] <hastesaver> fgh_lo, has a user called (whatever username you gave) been created? Try doing "finger <username>"
[07:54] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, the reverse of enabling it. it varies from method to method
[07:54] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, lol, wait are you on edgy?
[07:55] <iLLf8d> hastesaver, wow haven't used finger in years didn't recall its output looked like that in linux
[07:55] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Nope, Dapper with Beryl installed, AIGLX installed but I've yet to use it, still havent installed the GPU drivers (nVidia beta)
[07:55] <UnL0CkER> how do I start sshd?
[07:55] <After_effects12> Anyone know if there is a mac OSX version of wine?
[07:55] <Ma1> iLLf8d the thing is, I can get used to a GUI, but what scares me is that I won't have access to all my opensource software I use.
[07:55] <mneptok> UnL0CkER: sshd is not installed by default
[07:55] <hastesaver> iLLf8d, do you know a better way to check if a user exists? :(
[07:55] <mneptok> UnL0CkER: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[07:55] <mneptok> UnL0CkER: it will start itself
[07:55] <lastnode__> After_effects12, #winehq
[07:55] <gansinho> please could someone help me, I'm helping a friend to install ubuntu dapper in his pc however during the install in the "select keyboard layout" screen it doesn't show any model to select, so we can't select to forwad the instalation...
[07:56] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, ah, k. i was thinking i fed you the wrong flashplugin. definently should disable xgl and beryl and see if that helps
[07:56] <fgh_lo> hastesaver: the ~ dir has been created. /home/sambauser /bin/false
[07:56] <UnL0CkER> mneptok, is the livecd
[07:56] <iLLf8d> hastesaver, check /etc/group (doesn't mean their environment is setup tho)
[07:56] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Looks like im stuck then. I've no idea how to do either.
[07:56] <gansinho> In step 3 out of 6
[07:56] <mneptok> UnL0CkER: then you get no sshd
[07:56] <iLLf8d> or home for that matter
[07:56] <UnL0CkER> got be kiding me
[07:56] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, do you have the ubuntu desktop cd? or the alternative?
[07:57] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Got three discs, dapper (which wont boot anymore for some reason), Edgy knot 3 and Edgy beta.
[07:57] <hastesaver> UnL0CkER, do you plan to use the live cd permanently? :)
[07:57] <mneptok> UnL0CkER: no, because in order to fit live and installation stuff on a single CD, things must be omitted. Ubuntu installs very few listening daemons by default, even with a server install.
[07:57] <devicenull> wow, I probably should not have installed desktop
[07:57] <hastesaver> UnL0CkER, actually, you *can* install on the live CD too. "sudo apt-get install ssh" should work fine, too
[07:57] <devicenull> I see so much being installed that I'm going to remove..
[07:57] <iLLf8d> gansinho, did you check to make sure the disc is good? I had alot of trouble with ubuntu install discs for some reason my burner didn't likem (which is wierd cause it fine on everything else)
[07:58] <devicenull> its bad..
[07:58] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, hmm. well, i'm at a loss on why it's not working. tho you're the second person with the same issue today...
[07:58] <whitedeth> wow.
[07:58] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, and i know homestar runner works fine under flash 7...
[07:58] <hastesaver> devicenull, it's a *desktop* for the average user, what do you expect? I've removed nothing that was installed, and I've felt a lot of things missing too (gcc, emacs,...)
[07:59] <devicenull> it doesnt have gcc?
[07:59] <devicenull> wow.
[07:59] <devicenull> I have never seen a linux distro not install gcc
[07:59] <devicenull> but I guess for most people, it doesnt matrter
[07:59] <hastesaver> devicenull, I think edgy has it, but the previous versions didn't. (But I may be *very very* wrong here...)
[07:59] <Slynderdale> For those who dual boot Windows and Linux: http://www.fs-driver.org/ It provides Windows NT4.0/2000/XP with full access to Linux Ext2 volumes (read access and write access). So basicly, on WIndows, you can access the Linux drives/partitions normally as if they were like any other drive.
[07:59] <gansinho> iLLf8d: thanks I'll check!
[07:59] <DarkMageZ> devicenull, the home user shouldn't need a compiler, so no compiler is installed by default :P
[07:59] <hastesaver> devicenull, but why do you want to remove things anyway? disk space?
[08:00] <harisund> devicenull, yeah ...first Linux distro I am using that doesn't have gcc out of the box (not that it is hard to get ..but still) ... but then considering the target users of the distro, I wouldn't blame it ..
[08:00] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Eh, flashpalyer doesnt bother me much. Might as well surf the internet with it off. I'll just go rename .mozilla to .mozilla2 and start from scratch. Unless installing Konqueror is easy?
[08:00] <UnL0CkER> ssh or sshd?
[08:00] <devicenull> 20gb HD, I'd prefer not having stuff I didn't need
[08:00] <hastesaver> DarkMageZ, the home user doesn't need an operating system disguised as an editor either, I guess :)
[08:00] <UnL0CkER> hastesaver, ssh or sshd?/
[08:00] <devicenull> meh, I probably would have been better off with a different distro for my laptop
[08:00] <iLLf8d> gansinho, yeah its really wierd that it happened too cause my cd burner hasn't botched more then 1 disc in about 3000 burns too till the ubuntu isos
[08:00] <robitaille> harisund,   edgy install gcc by default.  First ubuntu version that do so
[08:00] <hastesaver> UnL0CkER, ssh
[08:00] <DarkMageZ> devicenull, if you wish to have a compiler then please install the build-essential package :P
[08:00] <UnL0CkER> k
[08:00] <john> I am haveing trouble reinstalling wine.
[08:00] <UnL0CkER> thx man
[08:00] <harisund> robitaille, nice ... good to hear that...
[08:01] <Consty> Is there anyway to install amarok/k3b without installing all of KDE's crap?  As in the kdebins package and etc.. I dont want to install kde, just the dependencies that are necessary as in QT.
[08:01] <hastesaver> whitedeth, apt-get install kubuntu-desktop will install a working KDE system on your desktop, after about a 100 MB of download. You get to try KDE too :)
[08:01] <iLLf8d> gansinho, maybe my powersupplys dying or memory or something hrm I should check that
[08:01] <robitaille> harisund,  most users probably never uses it...including myself :)
[08:01] <harisund> robitaille, indeed... you are right.
[08:01] <Consty> Or do both those programs use much of what KDE has?
[08:01] <whitedeth> 100MB!? Joy. That's over an hour on my 256k connection.
[08:01] <orion2012> Consty: both of those _are_ kde apps, not just QT
[08:01] <john> I have deleted .wine and uninstalled it from package manager.
[08:01] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, k, you'll find that there is a copy of the flashplayer in your old .mozilla directory. you'll want to remove it and also remove the flashplugin-nonfree package :P
[08:01] <Consty> I see, so you have to download everything then.
[08:01] <harisund> can someone point me to a quick howto or a guide that explains how I can have my dhcp3-server automatically update my bind9 (on the same machine) with the info of my dhcp clients?
[08:01] <gansinho> iLLf8d: wile using the live cd it doesn' use anything from the hd?
[08:01] <whitedeth> DarkMageZ: Why?
[08:02] <DarkMageZ> whitedeth, to remove flash?
[08:02] <john> Now, I have installed it from the package manager and dont know what to do to get it owrking?
[08:02] <whitedeth> heatesaver: One last question, will installing the KDE system affect my running Beryl or AIGLX?
[08:02] <iLLf8d> gansinho, shouldn't have too unless you mount something
[08:02] <hastesaver> whitedeth, ok, so just search for and install the package related to konqueror. This should be a lot of MB, too, I think, though.
[08:02] <hastesaver> whitedeth, I don't see why it should affect that...
[08:02] <whitedeth> sweet. Thanks for ya'll help.
[08:02] <Consty> Also anyone know why when you install the nonfree flash plugin that it doesn't show up in firefox?  I had to install it manually.
[08:02] <whitedeth> dinner time :)
[08:02] <mo> how do I get fluxbux to run under gnome as my wm?
[08:03] <john> Build-dependencies for wine could not be satisfied.
[08:03] <john>  - what should I do (installing wine)
[08:03] <robitaille> Consty,  how did you install it? using apt-get or something else?
[08:03] <gansinho> iLLf8d: so if he had made a missinstall of ubuntu before, it won't affect anything in a new instalation?
[08:03] <Consty> robitaille: Just apt-get
[08:03] <gansinho> missinstall
[08:03] <Consty> robitaille: actually I use synaptic to install it..
[08:04] <iLLf8d> gansinho, does he have another os on the machine and did he rewrite the partitions changes on the new install?
[08:04] <DarkMageZ> Consty, what version is the flashplugin-nonfree package you installed?
[08:04] <Consty> 7
[08:04] <robitaille> Consty,  that should have worked.  There used to be a bug a while back when using apt-get...you didn't see the "accept the macromedia license", thus it was not installed properly;  but it should work with synaptics
[08:04] <DarkMageZ> Consty, 7.?
[08:05] <^Ocean^> i seem to be missing Module.symvers how do i generate this file ?  should be in /usr/src/linux
[08:05] <gansinho> iLLf8d: he formated the partition that he installed ubuntu, it used to be a ntfs partition
[08:05] <Consty> 7.0.63.3
[08:06] <troy_> Hi
[08:06] <DarkMageZ> Consty, yeah... known bug. there is a newer version that works that's available in backports
[08:06] <Consty> ohhhh I see
[08:06] <troy_> can someone please tell me how to use the mount command
[08:06] <^Ocean^> i seem to be missing Module.symvers where do i get this file ?  should be in /usr/src/linux
[08:06] <iLLf8d> gansinho, you may wanna setup your partitions again and write them to disk just in case (although the missing keyboard stuffs probably have nothing to do with that)
[08:06] <DarkMageZ> Consty, in the terminal go "wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/f/flashplugin-nonfree/flashplugin-nonfree_7.0.68~ubuntu2~dapper1_i386.deb" and then "sudo dpkg -i flashplugin"(tab)
[08:06] <troy_> I want to use ndiswrapper and need to get to the driver directory on the cdom
[08:07] <robitaille> Consty,  and added bonus:  you get a flash plugin without known security issues  :)
[08:07] <gansinho> iLLf8d: but he's using the liveCD to install... if he installs via terminal it would output any possible errors? if so, what's the command to start the installation?
[08:07] <mneptok> troy_: the CD should auto-mount when you insert it
[08:07] <troy_> it has on the desktop I
[08:07] <troy_> how do i browse it in terminal
[08:07] <DarkMageZ> Consty, yeah, robitaille is right about that one. that's why the package you installed is broken :P
[08:08] <Consty> DarkMageZ: how come the new one doesn't show up instead then?
[08:08] <troy_> I did it the other day and forgot how i did it
[08:08] <robitaille> Consty,  because the new one is from Edgy....Dapper hasn't been updated for the newest flash
[08:09] <Consty> ohh ok.. this new one does it fix the issue with off sync audio/video?  I know if I switch to OSS instead of ALSA for firefox that it works fine then but firefox becomes unstable then.
[08:09] <DarkMageZ> Consty, because you don't have backports enabled. (tho, technically, there "should" be a package available in multiverse-updates...
[08:09] <troy_> ??
[08:09] <DarkMageZ> Consty, lol no... that's not fixed.
[08:09] <^Ocean^> gah no one knows were i can get Module.symvers
[08:09] <Consty> DarkMageZ: I always thought that backports were for older stuff, not newer stuff
[08:10] <troy_> need help mounting cdrom in gnome terminal
[08:10] <DarkMageZ> Consty, backports are software which are brought from the (edgy) newer version to the (dapper) older
[08:10] <Consty> darkmagez: Oh wow.. I didn't know! :)
[08:11] <hastesaver> troy_, if it's on the desktop, it's already mounted
[08:11] <mneptok> troy_: it's mounted under /media
[08:11] <hastesaver> troy_, go to /media/cdrom (I think) to see it
[08:11] <troy_> how do i browse it
[08:11] <DarkMageZ> Consty, yeah. you'll pick these things up as you go along
[08:11] <pitti> troy_: don't you get a nautilus window for browsing it automatically when you insert it?
[08:11] <troy_> no
[08:12] <pitti> troy_: feel free to file a bug about it (against gnome-volume-manager)
[08:12] <mneptok> troy_: in a temrinal type "nautilus /media" (no quotes)
[08:12] <mneptok> that should get you working for now
[08:12] <Consty> DarkMageZ: The sad part is i've been running ubuntu for a year now! :P
[08:12] <pitti> troy_: you should get an icon on the desktop, though, you can click on that
[08:12] <troy_> oh yeah i get that
[08:12] <hastesaver> Hello! I'm sorry for repeating so frequently, I'll ask one last time:  Is there a way to capture soundcard's output to a file? Windows had programs for this, but I don't want to go back to Windows...
[08:12] <troy_> i want to setup ndiswrapper I need terminal access
[08:13] <pitti> hastesaver: take a look at the 'vsound' package
[08:13] <pitti> hastesaver: that's the general low-level solution; many programs like xmms also have an easier-to-use GUI integration for that
[08:13] <iLLf8d> gansinho, sorry bout that the wife =P uhm installer from live cd I don't recall really I've installed it 3 times in the last week or 2 and I don't remember if I started it from the commandline or the live cd (installed a few others too)
[08:13] <mneptok> troy_: before you try ndiswrapper i would suggest you take an hour or so and learn some terminal commands like cd, ls, sudo, chown, chmod, etc etc
[08:14] <troy_> I did it the other day
[08:14] <mneptok> troy_: no offense, but if you don't know how to find a directory using the temrinal then installing ndiswrapper is going to be very frustrating.
[08:14] <hastesaver> pitti, thanks! Of all the media players in the world, *xmms* would probably have been the last place I'd have looked :)
[08:14] <troy_> mount cdrom1
[08:14] <iLLf8d> gansinho, they're all becoming a blur (gentoo, debian, arch, ubuntu installer cds although the gentoo one looked tasty I must admit)
[08:14] <pitti> hastesaver: mplayer can do it, too
[08:14] <troy_> ive already installed it
[08:15] <Consty> Is it considered dangerous to install updates from backports ?
[08:15] <mneptok> troy_: then what do you need?
[08:15] <troy_> I can nav just cant get drive mounting to work
[08:15] <clearzen> Does anyone know how to use apt-get or aptitude behind a proxy?
[08:15] <gansinho> iLLf8d: ok ^_^ , thanks for the info!
[08:15] <Consty> Or ather not dangerous, but unstable?
[08:15] <mneptok> troy_: once again, the CD is mounted at /media
[08:15] <hastesaver> pitti, really? I don't mean a file that's being played by mplayer, I mean something that's just being played (maybe a flash file in a web browser, etc.)
[08:15] <troy_> install my belkin USB usb adaptor
[08:15] <mneptok> troy_: it's obviously mounted, as you said you can see it on your desktop.
[08:15] <^Ocean^> okay i have linux-headers-2.6.17-10 how do i get the Modules.symvers for it ?
[08:15] <iLLf8d> gansinho, np I have run into trouble with deb installs w/out rewriting my paritions when they've failed in the past so I suspect ubuntu may have similar issues (tho its just a guess)
[08:15] <pitti> hastesaver: yeah, for flash and so on you really need vsound
[08:16] <troy_> ok then how DO I SEE IT
[08:16] <iLLf8d> gansinho, the ubuntu installs I've done came off w/out a hitch once I got a good cd burned
[08:16] <mneptok> troy_: you said the CD is on the desktop. double-click it.
[08:16] <clearzen> Is this update error generated by proxy settings?
[08:16] <clearzen> Err ftp://cipherfunk.org dapper Release.gpg
[08:16] <troy_> troy@ubuntu:~$ mount cdrom1
[08:16] <troy_> mount: can't find cdrom1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[08:16] <troy_> troy@ubuntu:~$ mount media/cdrom1
[08:16] <troy_> mount: can't find media/cdrom1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[08:16] <troy_> troy@ubuntu:~$
[08:16] <iLLf8d> gansinho, good luck =)
[08:16] <Lam_> not really ubuntu related, but what's a good powerful font that says "i mean business"
[08:17] <troy_> h
[08:17] <iLLf8d> terminator font
[08:17] <troy_> ha
[08:17] <iLLf8d> jk heh
[08:17] <gansinho> iLLf8d: thanks, I think that the problem is the CD also
[08:17] <Lam_> lol i wish
[08:17] <ShadeT> clearzen, create /etc/apt/apt.conf
[08:18] <clearzen> please could anyone help me fix my package updater?
[08:18] <ShadeT> In the file have,  "Acquire::http::Proxy "proxy:port";"
[08:18] <clearzen> thanks
[08:19] <clearzen> how can I unset proxy options for apt on the command line?
[08:19] <troy_> got it
[08:19] <troy_> yes!!!
[08:19] <ShadeT> Or well Acquire::http::Proxy "User:Pass@proxy:port";
[08:19] <troy_> command /media/drive
[08:19] <ShadeT> edit /etc/apt/apt.conf
[08:19] <THX-1138> Can a launcher run .sh scripts without confirmation?
[08:22] <UnL0CkER> when usiong a lappywhen using a lappy, do I need lcd drivers in the kernel?
[08:22] <^Ocean^> okay i have linux-headers-2.6.17-10 how do i get the Modules.symvers for it ?
[08:28] <ryan_> does anyone know of a limewire type program that is native to ubuntu
[08:28] <tyler_d> where would I find my KBUILD path? trying to compile????
[08:29] <mneptok> ryan_: GTK-Gnutella
[08:30] <ryan_> thanks
[08:34] <klick> Hey all, can anyone help me get bluetooth support working, I tried to follow a wiki but whenever i do hciconfig, no devices show.  Im using a think pad x41 tablet
[08:35] <Ademan> in KDE how do you allow another user to sudo? (i want to give administrator privileges?)
[08:36] <klick> open up a term
[08:36] <izm99> whenever I reboot my computer, i have to rmmod ehci_hcd before my usb stuff starts working again.  any idea why?
[08:36] <klick> sudo visudo
[08:36] <mneptok> Ademan: sudo useradd -g admin the_user_name
[08:36] <klick> # User privilege specification
[08:36] <klick> under that section add a new user
[08:37] <Ademan> mneptok: there's no GUI for it?
[08:37] <mneptok> Ademan: not one that i use and would know without looking at it.
[08:38] <Ademan> i know the GNOME one, but KDE, kde i do not know
[08:38] <kraut> moin
[08:39] <hastesaver> Ademan, you only have to type it once; just go ahead and type it :-)
[08:40] <Ademan> hastesaver: but the user already exists
[08:40] <ShadeT> Or you can edit the /etc/groups file and place the user in the admin group.
[08:40] <hastesaver> Ademan, it's *called* useradd, but it can do other things too :-) [In this case, it adds the user to the group admin] 
[08:41] <rixth> I had a RAID1 array (software), then I reinstalled Dapper. How can I get to my data?
[08:41] <Ademan> hastesaver: oh, ok
[08:41] <mneptok> "useradd - Create a new user or update default new user information"  <-- fromt he useradd manpage
[08:43] <june> hastesaver: "useradd: user *** exists"     *** is the user i called that command on, is it just complaining? or did it fail?
[08:43] <enyc> june: it means atht user already exists
[08:44] <june> enyc: yes, i was able to determine that
[08:44] <^Ocean^> quit
[08:44] <hastesaver> june, mneptok was the one who gave you that command; ask him :)
[08:44] <enyc> june: anymawy... enyc busy... talk later ;-)
[08:45] <june> maybe i'm dyslexic, i'm moving between two computers, was it adduser or useradd?
[08:45] <Ademan> indeed it was useradd
[08:46] <hastesaver> june, useradd. Try  sudo useradd -D -g admin the_user_name #The -D is new
[08:47] <june> hastesaver: where does it save to?
[08:47] <rixth> I had a RAID1 array (software), then I reinstalled Dapper. How can I get to my data?
[08:48] <hastesaver> june, it changes /etc/groups, I think. Anyway, try that command and see what it says, first
[08:48] <june> and if a user belongs to the group admin, does that allow them to sudo?
[08:48] <mneptok> yes
[08:48] <june> hastesaver: uh "says" the same as "useradd --help" :-p
[08:49] <june> well allow me to log out and into my other account, see you on the other side
[08:49] <hastesaver> june, sorry, I didn't understand
[08:49] <hastesaver> june, try "sudo useradd -D -g admin <username>" wha does it say?
[08:53] <dan_> hrm moment of truth
[08:53] <dan_> sudo kate :-p
[08:53] <^Ocean^> does edgy break mercury for any one else ?
[08:54] <dan_> "*** is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported."  damn
[08:54] <klick> whats the best way to get support for all video types in totem, there are soo many plugins in synaptic, and im using edgy so automatix wont work for me
[08:57] <Sktfeelsdapper> Why are people trying edgy?
[08:57] <Sktfeelsdapper> Isn't it just being tested now?
[08:57] <hastesaver> klick,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[08:57] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, people are impatient. It's human nature :-)
[08:57] <klick> thanks ill check it out
[08:57] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, as soon as I go back home, I'm upgrading to edgy too :-)
[08:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> It just doesn't make sense.
[08:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> I think Dapper is buggy enough as it is!
[08:58] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, besides, it's only by "people trying edgy" that it can be tested
[08:58] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, what's buggy with dapper?
[08:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> One word. Sound.
[08:58] <Sktfeelsdapper> Hey, how do you see if you've got the right modules for your soundcard?
[08:59] <Ademan> argh, this is pissing me off, i just decided i'd do all the admin crap from the "june" account
[08:59] <TheGateKeeper> when are they releasing edge if they are still finding problems?
[08:59] <^Ocean^> what the hell is bon echo and what happend to firefox ?
[09:00] <hastesaver> ^Ocean^, bon echo is the name for Firefox 2.0, as yet unreleased. Or I may be wrong
[09:00] <Sktfeelsdapper> i've got a via82xxx and I'm not sure if I've got it step up right, even though I'm completely afraid to do anything to it.
[09:00] <Sktfeelsdapper> "set up"
[09:00] <DarkMageZ> hastesaver, it's the codename. it will be called firefox2 when launched
[09:01] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, sound worked fine for me out-of-the-box. So it's probably "hardware support" that's buggy, and that will always remain so. There is only so much linux developers can reverse-engineer if the hardware mfrs don't release drivers for linux (or even specs on what their hardware does)
[09:01] <hondadarrell> Why could my Gnome Terminal keep closing before loading?
[09:02] <THX-1138> hondadarrel - are you starting it form a launcher you created?
[09:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> Well no my sound works fine, even though I had to set it up all backwords to get it to work with 2 things at once.
[09:02] <Sktfeelsdapper> All my main sound=esd my firefox alsa
[09:03] <Lam_> !pinh
[09:03] <Lam_> !ping
[09:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pinh - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:03] <ubotu> ping: connection timeout
[09:03] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, who knows? maybe people are trying edgy because this thing is fixed in edgy? ;-)
[09:03] <hondadarrell> THX-1138, no. only from the menu panel
[09:04] <Sktfeelsdapper> I would hope so.
[09:04] <Sktfeelsdapper> I don't mean to sound mean or anything but man.
[09:04] <THX-1138> hondadarrel - right click the icon properties - is the box ru in terminal checked?
[09:05] <Sktfeelsdapper> It's a giant pain in the rear!
[09:06] <whitedeth> When are they releasing headers for 2.6.15-27??
[09:06] <THX-1138> hondadarrel - ctrl+alt+f2 then type "alias" ENTER
[09:06] <ScreaminIke> i just accidentally created a really long string for my "keyring"... and i forgot it... is there some way to simply remove the entry so that my keyring resets?
[09:07] <whitedeth> I cant install the nvidia beta drivers because there's no headers for 2.6.15-27 :(
[09:08] <Janchi> whitedeth, did you try to install them using synaptic?
[09:08] <whitedeth> janchi: No.
[09:08] <whitedeth> janchi: Through console.
[09:09] <whitedeth> err..terminal.
[09:09] <whitedeth> it says they dont exist.
[09:10] <^Ocean^> anyone else's flash break with edgy ?
[09:10] <Janchi> whitedeth, weird. If the kernel exists, the headers must exist as well. I am not behind my Ubuntu box, but I installed them to use with VMware
[09:11] <THX-1138> xcompmgr - easy transparency , drop shadows. just plain fun.
[09:11] <Janchi> Could be something missing in the sourceslist
[09:12] <whitedeth> I've got two sources with the same packages in there.
[09:12] <whitedeth> neither have it.
[09:12] <ScreaminIke> anyone? i mean... how do i reset the gnome keyring?
[09:12] <Janchi> whitedeth, you have main universe multiverse restricted?
[09:12] <whitedeth> actually, good question.
[09:13] <whitedeth> I dont think I do.
[09:13] <whitedeth> I shall add :)
[09:13] <Janchi> whitedeth, just a hunch :-)
[09:15] <CheekyBoinc> linux-images are in Base repos!  http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=Linux-image-2.6.15-27&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper&release=all
[09:16] <CheekyBoinc> Headers:  http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=Linux-headers-2.6.15-27&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper&release=all
[09:16] <ryan_> how do i delete a file from the terminal
[09:17] <ChaosFan> rm
[09:18] <ryan_> thank....what about a directory
[09:18] <wickedpuppy> same ...
[09:18] <wickedpuppy> rmdir or rm -rf
[09:18] <holycow> rm -rf
[09:18] <Unimatrix9> and with rm there is no waste bin, so its gone, history
[09:18] <THX-1138> recurse force
[09:20] <whitedeth> janchi: E: Couldn't find package linux-dri-modules-2.6.15-27-386
[09:20] <whitedeth> :(
[09:21] <THX-1138> the penguin sleuth kit might find it but gotta be really really nerdy to use
[09:21] <mempf> why are you looking for the dri-modules
[09:21] <mempf> i thought you needed the headers
[09:22] <whitedeth> its the modules that wont install.
[09:22] <fuffal0> if i have two 200g hard drives that i want to use for storage, and i'm worried about losing my data, should i run them as a raid1, or should i simply run a cron job every night that bags hd1 to hd2?
[09:22] <whitedeth> that is why it wont let me install the drivers.
[09:22] <klick> Can totem play FLV files or do you have to convert them first?
[09:22] <cpk1> yahoo, iwconfig gave me a seg fault...
[09:22] <mempf> i need to know generlly ho to play flv
[09:23] <mempf> the nvidia drivers dont need the dri-modules
[09:23] <whitedeth> then why else arent they installing?
[09:23] <whitedeth> thats the ONLY thing that isnt installed.
[09:24] <mempf> you have linux-headers?
[09:25] <fuffal0> if i want to dualboot windows/ubuntu, do i have to do the windows install first, or can i do the ubuntu install first
[09:25] <whitedeth> yes, im sure I did those last night when you asked me to.
[09:25] <mempf> using this command?
[09:25] <mempf> apt-get install linux-headers-`uname- r`
[09:25] <Unimatrix9> it would be easier to first install windows
[09:25] <whitedeth> yes
[09:26] <Unimatrix9> as the window installer overwrites the mbr without questions
[09:26] <whitedeth> wait
[09:26] <whitedeth> lol you spelt it wrong again
[09:26] <Unimatrix9> and ubuntu will setup dual , if you choose it on install
[09:26] <mempf> i did?
[09:26] <mempf> oh
[09:26] <THX-1138> The only way to install windows w/o it doing that is with norton ghost. a disk image application.
[09:26] <mempf> so i did
[09:26] <whitedeth> yeah, uname -r, not uname- r.
[09:26] <whitedeth> heh
[09:27] <whitedeth> okay, getting it now.
[09:27] <grub_booter> mempf: flv playback should work with ffplay from ffmpeg...
[09:27] <whitedeth> wow I swear I thought I had done those.
[09:27] <SpComb> fuffal0: and for the hard drives, RAID1 is best. The copying happens in real-time, which generally means that a) you won't notice it b) there isn't a potentially loss of 23.999 hours of data
[09:28] <fuffal0> spcomb, but software raid1 has a history of copying over corrupted data, doesn't it?
[09:28] <fuffal0> ie: one drive goes bad but the second one keeps copying the bad data
[09:29] <daurnimator> ok
[09:29] <daurnimator> my sound isn't working
[09:29] <daurnimator> and !sound doesn't help
[09:30] <SpComb> fuffal0: never heard of that, but it should only write the data that you give to it to disk
[09:31] <daurnimator> hello?
[09:32] <Unimatrix9> could do an dmesg on command line ( shell-console) and see if your soundcard shows up there
[09:32] <Unimatrix9> its also nice to know what kind of card it is..
[09:33] <Unimatrix9> if nothing works, you could consider to buy an cheap soundcard , pci that is supported...
[09:33] <daurnimator> it shows up
[09:34] <mooseman089> hey
[09:34] <Unimatrix9> as what?
[09:34] <yahya> Is there a way to get a list of files apt-get update will download? I want to download them on a different machine where I have unlimitied bandwidth
[09:34] <daurnimator> well
[09:34] <daurnimator> the one i want is:
[09:34] <daurnimator> card 1: V8237 [VIA 8237] , device 0: VIA 8237 [VIA 8237] 
[09:34] <daurnimator>   Subdevices: 4/4
[09:34] <hondadarrell> thx-1138, ctrl + alt + f2 crashed my computer
[09:34] <daurnimator>   Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
[09:34] <daurnimator>   Subdevice #1: subdevice #1
[09:34] <johnsie> Hi... is the a terminal command to get my cpu info?
[09:34] <Unimatrix9> thats an onboard soundcard right?
[09:34] <daurnimator>   Subdevice #2: subdevice #2
[09:35] <daurnimator>   Subdevice #3: subdevice #3
[09:35] <daurnimator> card 1: V8237 [VIA 8237] , device 1: VIA 8237 [VIA 8237] 
[09:35] <yahya> johnsie: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[09:35] <mooseman089> does anybody know if there is a floppy to bootstrap a ubuntu disc because i have a old mobo that only supports boot from floppy or hard drive
[09:35] <daxxar> johnsie, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[09:35] <daurnimator>   Subdevices: 1/1
[09:35] <daurnimator>   Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
[09:35] <daurnimator> yes
[09:35] <daurnimator> it used to work
[09:35] <johnsie> thanks :-)
[09:35] <daurnimator> then i switched to kubuntu (from normal ubuntu) and it stopped
[09:35] <daxxar> daurnimator, NOPASTE / PASTEBIN
[09:35] <Unimatrix9> daxxar dont complain just help...:)
[09:36] <daxxar> Unimatrix9, it becomes difficult to help others when the flow is interrupted by ~7 lines of "crap".
[09:36] <daxxar> Anyway, never mind.
[09:36] <daurnimator> daxxar: no one else was talking at the time
[09:36] <mooseman089> can anybody help me?
[09:37] <daxxar> daurnimator, except johnsie and mooseman089, of course.
[09:37] <Unimatrix9> i think ( but could be wrong ) that kubuntu is using an different sound system..
[09:37] <daurnimator> johnsie: talked after...
[09:38] <Unimatrix9> so go to control centre ( but i am not familiar with kubuntu ) and set the right soundsystem
[09:38] <daxxar> daurnimator, only from your POV. The IRC-server throttles your traffic.
[09:38] <Chadwick|359> is there an actual edgy chan?
[09:38] <johnsie> #uubuntu+1
[09:38] <daurnimator> daxxar: 20 seconds later...
[09:38] <Chadwick|359> ty
[09:38] <daurnimator> anyway, can you help me out?
[09:38] <Unimatrix9> or check with the kubuntu channel
[09:39] <hondadarrell> thx-1138, ctrl + alt + f2 went to a black screen.
[09:40] <yigal> hi - who can help me with ICQ installing on Ubuntu?
[09:40] <johnsie> is there a terminal command for information about memory?
[09:40] <Healot> free
[09:40] <johnsie> thanks :-)
[09:40] <afrosheen> yigal, you can use Gaim or Trillian or anything else
[09:40] <mooseman089> could i install ubuntu on a hard drive then put the drive in the non cd bootable computer?
[09:41] <daxxar> mooseman089, you might have to install Debian via a floppy, then 'convert'.
[09:41] <mooseman089> where i could i find that?
[09:41] <johnsie> yes mooseman
[09:41] <daxxar> mooseman089, theoretically that should work, atleast if they have the same architecture.
[09:41] <yigal> GAIM is not good for my target. The PC goes to a youth club where registering account is not a good idea. I need "qick usage"
[09:41] <daxxar> mooseman089, i.e. if they're both x86 (non-64bit, intel / amd CPUs), it should work okay.
[09:41] <mooseman089> ok ill do that if i cant find any floppy that cant boot the cd
[09:42] <afrosheen> yigal, there will be account setups regardless
[09:42] <eck> does anyone know how to find the uuid of a swap partition?
[09:42] <deep__> !network
[09:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about network - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:42] <johnsie> mooseman089: you might need to do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg on the other machine though
[09:42] <deep__> umm
[09:42] <yigal> not with XP for example... are you saying ICQ cant work on Ubuntu same why as with XP?
[09:42] <mooseman089> well the box i put it on will on need a text interface its a 75mhz packard bell
[09:43] <deep__> Hey, does anyone know anything about the serverinstall of ubuntu?
[09:43] <afrosheen> yigal, http://www.icq.com/download/icq2go/ is probably what you'd prefer
[09:43] <mneptok> mooseman089: i'd use DSL for that machine if i were you.
[09:43] <daxxar> deep__, what, in particular? I have a server running it. :)
[09:43] <afrosheen> yigal, it's java-based and zero install
[09:43] <mooseman089> do you know if dsl has a wget or some alternative to download files
[09:43] <mooseman089> my goal is to just run teh command line boinc on the box 24/7
[09:44] <eck> mooseman089: i'm sure dsl has wget
[09:44] <deep__> daxxar, i was wondering what firewall its using?
[09:44] <johnsie> yigal, you could try using wine to install it but really you'd be better off getting a native Linux version and not a windows XP version
[09:44] <daxxar> deep__, that I wouldn't know. It's behind another firewall here, never messed with it.
[09:44] <mneptok> mooseman089: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/download.html
[09:44] <Unimatrix9> daurnimator
[09:45] <daxxar> deep__, I would guess it just uses iptables, and you can use various frontends/guis to manage it.
[09:45] <eck> deep__: i think all ubuntu has iptables but no default rules
[09:45] <daurnimator> ?
[09:45] <Unimatrix9> ttp://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/article.php?story=20060618164650957
[09:45] <yigal> Thanks guys - and now to the tough question - what about msn messenger?
[09:45] <daxxar> deep__, read something about 'firestarter' for a GUI, but I don't use X.
[09:45] <Unimatrix9> here is an read about your problem
[09:45] <mooseman089> ok with dsl do they have a floppy verison or something to boot to cd?
[09:45] <probugh> sorry guys, i have a question; i want to install the latest version of dapper ubuntu to a brand new empty hdd.i put the cd into the dvd tray,it boots, but when it comes to checking the drivers it gets stuck...any ideas?
[09:45] <mneptok> mooseman089: and i'm sure DSL will run curl or wget. NetBSD on my Mac Quadra 605 (68040@25Mhz) has curl and wget. ;)
[09:45] <daxxar> yigal, you have 'aMSN'. It's a pure MSN-client for Linux.
[09:45] <deep__> daxxar, "The Ubuntu Server has no open ports after the installation", the site sais. ^^
[09:45] <johnsie> which Irc client makes it easy to do someones_name: message?
[09:45] <deep__> daxxar, and i wont be usint X
[09:45] <afrosheen> yigal, again, there is a web-based msn client
[09:45] <eck> if you really are getting enough traffic that you need a firewall you probably want a hardware router :-P
[09:45] <deep__> daxxar, i want to control everything by ssh. :)
[09:45] <eck> err hardware firewall
[09:46] <daxxar> deep__, same here. ;-)
[09:46] <mooseman089> ok i found the floppy image....
[09:46] <daxxar> deep__, might've been an installation-choice, but I have no iptables-policies.
[09:46] <daurnimator> uh
[09:47] <johnsie> what irc client do people here use?
[09:47] <daxxar> johnsie, most irc-clients do that. Usually you just press 'tab' after a few characters, i.e. 'jo<tab>' = johnsie. :-)
[09:47] <troy_> Hi
[09:47] <daxxar> johnsie, I'm using irssi, which has that feature. (it usually adds : too, but I removed that)
[09:47] <johnsie> daxxar, cool
[09:47] <daxxar> irssi is text-based. For a desktop-machine, you might want X-Chat
[09:47] <deep__> daxxar, ah, okay. But i want a firewall, an easy firewall (aka not iptables), you know anyone? :)
[09:48] <troy_> im trying to install a driver and it says 2.6.13 and higher kernels are supported.
[09:48] <johnsie> thanks :-)
[09:48] <daxxar> deep__, sorry, I use init-scripts w/ iptables-rules, sorry. :-)
[09:48] <troy_> i have 2.6.12-9-386
[09:48] <daxxar> johnsie, np. ;-)
[09:48] <troy_> do i have to upgrade
[09:48] <deep__> troy_, "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" will upgrade your kernel
[09:48] <troy_> thats
[09:49] <troy_> how much MB for download
[09:49] <deep__> daxxar, okay. :)
[09:49] <deep__> troy_, umm, not to many. a kernel isnt so very big.
[09:49] <mneptok> uhhhh
[09:49] <troy_> thanks
[09:49] <mneptok> do NOT do a dist-upgrade. just "upgrade" will get you a new kernel.
[09:49] <daxxar> deep__, you probably want something web-based, I haven't seen a curses- or CLI-based UI for iptables.
[09:50] <afrosheen> johnsie, xchat
[09:50] <probugh> any help please?
[09:50] <deep__> mneptok, it will? O.O
[09:50] <mneptok> deep__: yes
[09:50] <TheGateKeeper> !iptables
[09:50] <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)
[09:50] <afrosheen> daxxar, isn't firestarter an iptables frontend?
[09:50] <guillem101> how do I enable php in apache2? I've packages installed , and I have linked the php5.load from mods-avail to mods-enabled
[09:50] <afrosheen> yeahhh
[09:50] <daxxar> afrosheen, firestarter is GUI, isn't it?
[09:50] <deep__> daxxar, I can probably learn iptables or something. :P
[09:51] <TheGateKeeper> daxxar: yep
[09:51] <mneptok> dist-upgrade is used to move between releases (e.g. Dapper to Edgy). "upgrade" is used to get new versions of stuff for your current release.
[09:51] <b_e_n_z> shorewall is the best frontend to iptables IMO
[09:51] <daxxar> deep__, you could look at shorewall (http://www.shorewall.net) or fireHOL (http://firehol.sourceforge.net/) - but I have no prior experience with either
[09:51] <deep__> Aah, thanx :D
[09:51] <afrosheen> webmin might have some easy-to-use iptables stuff in it also
[09:52] <troy_> I have to stop the upgrade
[09:52] <daxxar> I thought webmin was a huge, gaping security-hole?
[09:52] <troy_> limit of 400 MB on my BB
[09:52] <glatzor> guillem101: "sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5" should be sufficient
[09:52] <daxxar> troy_, ^C
[09:52] <afrosheen> daxxar, since when...by default on most distros it'll only accept https traffic
[09:52] <bayzider> hey i installed wine but i have no idea how to use it can some one help.
[09:52] <troy_> so only type that
[09:53] <bayzider> !wine
[09:53] <afrosheen> bayzider, man wine
[09:53] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:53] <daxxar> afrosheen, I have no first-hand-experience, I just recall some debian-channel harassing it for being insecure. ;-)
[09:53] <daxxar> troy_, press control + C to 'break' it.
[09:53] <afrosheen> daxxar, that sounds about right..if it's helpful it must be insecure :)
[09:53] <troy_> done
[09:53] <daxxar> afrosheen, hehe ;-)
[09:53] <Madpilot> daxxar, webmin isn't supported anymore in either Debian or Ubuntu - apparently because of the security issues
[09:53] <philip> what file do I edit for the session startup?
[09:53] <Madpilot> !webmin
[09:53] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[09:53] <daxxar> Madpilot, aha. :-)
[09:53] <afrosheen> !whatever
[09:53] <afrosheen> ;)
[09:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about whatever - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:54] <guillem101> glatzor, I've the package already installed :-(. I've upgraded from hoary... and I used to have php4 there... so perhaps the config is wrong... any suggestions?
[09:55] <probugh> new wannabe ubunter with problem installing the latest version of dapper ubuntu to a brand new empty hdd.i put the cd into the dvd tray,it boots, but when it comes to checking the drivers it gets stuck...any ideas?
[09:55] <troy_> should i type sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod
[09:55] <guillem101> glatzor, strange, "php5" package was not installed... I'm on it...
[09:56] <afrosheen> probugh, lemme guess, sata hd?
[09:56] <Arcad3> probugh:the HDD is properly connected?
[09:56] <Healot> !find php5
[09:56] <ubotu> Found: php5-clamavlib, php5-imap, php5-interbase, php5-json, php5-mapscript (and 24 others)
[09:57] <Arcad3> !find cedega
[09:57] <ubotu> Package/file cedega does not exist in dapper
[09:57] <tapas> how do i boot the ubuntu live cd without X?
[09:57] <tapas> [it freezes as my thinkpad t21 needs a special setup] 
[09:57] <probugh> no, ide one.i think properly connected, mastered as single
[09:58] <^Ocean^> does edgy have font problems ? java apps, dont seem to render properly, and flash pages dont seem to work 100% either
[09:58] <Madpilot> ^Ocean^, #ubuntu+1 for edgy
[09:58] <^Ocean^> i wish osme one was awake there lol
[09:59] <Arcad3> !find tuxgames
[09:59] <glatzor> tapas: download the alternate installer
[09:59] <guillem101> glatzor, no luck. Maybe I can uninstall apache2, php5 and apache2-mod-php5 and reinstall them...
[09:59] <ubotu> Package/file tuxgames does not exist in dapper
[09:59] <tapas> glatzor: oh sorry forgot to mention i have the live cd
[09:59] <Alex232> Hello all!
[10:00] <lukas_> re *
[10:00] <Arcad3> !ubuntu instalation
[10:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu instalation - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:00] <glatzor> tapas: Yes, that is why I recommend you to download the alternate installer instead :)
[10:00] <glatzor> there is no text only mode on the desktop cd
[10:00] <tapas> glatzor: ok,but just for the sake of it. there's no way to boot the live cd without X?
[10:00] <ucordes> how can i switch between 386 and 686?
[10:00] <tapas> s/./:/
[10:01] <ucordes> or better said how can i upgrad to 686
[10:01] <Alex232> Is there only LiveCD for Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy)? I've found only this one in the download directory on Ubuntu.com
[10:02] <mneptok> ucordes: "sudo apt-get install linux-686"
[10:02] <cafuego> Alex232: 6.06 has a single CD which is both install+live.
[10:02] <glatzor> tapas: right. it's a desktop cd - a grphical desktop.
[10:02] <ucordes> mneptok: don't i have to remove 386 then?
[10:02] <mneptok> ucordes: only if you want to, or to save space
[10:02] <ucordes> mneptok: ok. what are the differences between the two?
[10:03] <glatzor> cafuego: no. the desktop cd (live) includes an installer. but there is still the alternative text only installer cd
[10:03] <Alex232> cafuego: so, can I just insert my Desctop CD and load Ubuntu?
[10:03] <glatzor> ucordes: the difference between 386 and 686 isn't worth the work. you won't even find optimized kernels in edgy.
[10:03] <mneptok> ucordes: the 686 version has a kernel with 686-specific instructions compiled in. and thus usually gives vastly better performance on PII and greater
[10:04] <glatzor> Alex232: right. that is the idea.
[10:04] <Alex232> waw! Great!
[10:04] <mneptok> glatzor: not correct. try using FFMPEG through GStreamer under a 386 and 686 kernel, and watch the difference.
[10:04] <ucordes> mneptok: ok this sounds like it was worth upgrading
[10:04] <Arcad3> !firefox flashplugin
[10:04] <ubotu> firefox: lightweight web browser based on Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.7-ubuntu0.6.06 (dapper), package size 7739 kB, installed size 22928 kB
[10:04] <glatzor> mneptok: i don't own a x86.
[10:04] <mneptok> ucordes: for the 15 seconds of actual work, yes.
[10:05] <tapas> glatzor: well, i actually don't want to install to hd yet. i just need to make an adjustment to xorg.conf before x is started
[10:05] <tapas> glatzor: so there's no way to achieve this with the ubuntu live cd?
[10:05] <Arcad3> !find firefox flashplugin
[10:05] <ubotu> Found: firefox-themes-ubuntu, mozilla-firefox-locale-ar, mozilla-firefox-locale-bg-bg, mozilla-firefox-locale-bn-bd, mozilla-firefox-locale-bn-in (and 53 others)
[10:05] <glatzor> tapas:  you don't need a cd for this.
[10:05] <ucordes> mneptok: you said from pII and better. i'm using amd. does it still affect my performance positively?
[10:05] <mneptok> Arcad3: flashplugin-nonfree is what you're after
[10:05] <tapas> glatzor: ??
[10:05] <glatzor> tapas: just choose "recovery mode" in the boot loader
[10:05] <mneptok> ucordes: what kind of AMD?
[10:05] <Arcad3> its buggy
[10:05] <tapas> glatzor: ah ok
[10:06] <ucordes> mneptok: turion 64
[10:06] <tapas> glatzor: i neer said i needed another cd for this :)
[10:06] <mneptok> ucordes: then you want k7, not 686
[10:06] <whitedeth> what's the command in console to close the GDM?
[10:06] <glatzor> tapas: when you start your computer there is a message "press ESC to see the grub menu" or something like this
[10:06] <Alex232> And as I was said, there are some partitioning tools on LiveCD? could you please tell me where I can find them? (I'm new to Ubuntu)
[10:06] <tapas> glatzor: ok, thanks for the hint.. will try it
[10:06] <tapas> glatzor: the live cd displays a menu on boot
[10:06] <tapas> ok will
[10:06] <tapas> do
[10:06] <ucordes> mneptok: oh i see. but i don't use the 64 bit dapper.
[10:06] <whitedeth> anyone?
[10:06] <ucordes> mneptok: does this make a difference?
[10:07] <glatzor> tapas: you have already isntalled Ubuntu on your harddisk?
[10:07] <tapas> glatzor: nope. i still run debian
[10:07] <factotum> ugh, im thinking of building a new system (board, proc, vidcard anyways). But I dont know where to start these days. Last time I built a system was about 5 years ago
[10:07] <mneptok> ucordes: yes.
[10:07] <mneptok> ucordes: 3DNow! instructions, etc etc
[10:07] <tapas> glatzor: i just want to boot the live cd and need to make an adjustment to xorg.conf because in the default config it freezes my t21 rock solid
[10:07] <factotum> amd or intel, dual core? 64-bit? then its like what board? bleh
[10:08] <glatzor> tapas: also in "safe gaphic mode"?
[10:08] <tapas> glick: yes
[10:08] <tapas> oops
[10:08] <tapas> glatzor: yes
[10:08] <factotum> can i get a decent graphics card for about $100-$150?
[10:08] <glatzor> tapas: hm. you could try to use the boot option "single"
[10:08] <Genscher> hey :)
[10:08] <glatzor> tapas: but I don't know if it works
[10:09] <Genscher> i have a simple question
[10:09] <Genscher> :)
[10:09] <tapas> glatzor: aaah. single.. ok. i tried 1 (like to tell init to use runlevel 1), but as this uses upstat it didn't seem to work
[10:09] <Alex232> as I was said, there are some partitioning tools on LiveCD. Could you please tell me where I can find them? (I'm new to Ubuntu)
[10:09] <glatzor> Genscher: sorry, we only care about the complex ones :)
[10:09] <glatzor> tapas: single user mode :)
[10:09] <LoRe> i'm running edgy-eft, on every kernel-upgrade the following happens:
[10:09] <LoRe> update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-10-386
[10:09] <LoRe> Command failed
[10:09] <ucordes> mneptok: so to get to the point. i currently have installed linux-386. now that you told me i should usually select k7 i'm a bit confused. and what about linux-686 now?
[10:09] <Genscher> i installed acroread as you said :) the problem is that ubuntu doesn't stop to use the "fileviewer" to open PDF files. how can i change that behaviour?
[10:09] <Genscher> glatzor: hehe
[10:09] <Genscher> :)
[10:09] <glatzor> Alex232: in the system -> administration menu
[10:09] <stu_> !paste
[10:09] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[10:09] <tapas> factotum: sure. depends on what you want to do with the gfx card
[10:10] <glatzor> Alex232: or in the installer
[10:10] <yango> where does gnome store autogenerated cd images?
[10:10] <tapas> glatzor: ok, thankjs for your help.. brb
[10:10] <Alex232> glatzor: thank you
[10:10] <glatzor> tapas: good luck
[10:10] <stu_> could someone look at this for me please: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25481/
[10:10] <Madpilot> Genscher, right-click on a PDF, choose Properties, and look at the Open With... tab
[10:10] <factotum> tapas: just something to get my by on the more recent games
[10:10] <mneptok> ucordes: you want to run "sudo apt-get install linux-k7"
[10:10] <ucordes> mneptok: i just want to point out which kernel fits best to my system
[10:10] <Genscher> Madpilot
[10:10] <factotum> dont need top of the line or best of the best
[10:10] <Genscher> thank you
[10:10] <Genscher> :)
[10:11] <mneptok> ucordes: that should get you a K7 kernel and restricted modules
[10:11] <yango> I mean, when you rightclick on a CD and select create copy... it automatically creates an image, then prompts you for the new CD, etc. where is the image located?
[10:11] <factotum> dont need all settings on high n whatnot
[10:11] <ucordes> mneptok: so i did a mistake using the linux-386 before?
[10:11] <glatzor> yango: I would guess somewhere beneath /tmp
[10:11] <mneptok> ucordes: that's the default.
[10:11] <yango> glatzor, so guess I ... should it be a .iso?
[10:11] <ucordes> mneptok: i see. k-7 is better for me than 686? :-)
[10:12] <factotum> i dunno i have a geforce like 5200 or 5500 cant remember which, 256meg. Got it a while ago
[10:12] <mneptok> ucordes: with an AMD64, certainly.
[10:12] <yango> but find /tmp/ -name '*iso' gives no result
[10:12] <yango> should I ask on #gnome?
[10:12] <ucordes> mneptok: but as i said i don't even have the 64bit system installed
[10:12] <factotum> i can crank it up on neverwinter nights lol, thats about it though
[10:12] <mneptok> ucordes: doesn;t matter
[10:12] <noner> Hello, how do you install VLC player on Ubuntu?
[10:13] <mneptok> ucordes: trust me. the K7 kernel is what you're after.
[10:13] <Genscher> apt-get install vlc
[10:13] <narma> hello, I'm using a external hard drive on my debian testing for a while. Now I want to plug it into my laptop with ubuntu 6.06.1. it's ok but into a shell when I do a 'ls' or something else I have lots of caracters that are written as '?'. (I have french caracters)
[10:13] <Janchi> noner, apt-get install vlc maybe
[10:13] <ucordes> mneptok: :D ok thanks a lot for this piece of information
[10:13] <glatzor> yango: or a large file: find /tmp -size +500M
[10:13] <narma> into my debin $LANG=fr_FR@UTF8 and debian has fr_FR@euros
[10:13] <hondadarrell> my terminal closes before it loads.
[10:13] <narma> is it this variable or something that can solve my problem ?
[10:14] <ucordes> mneptok: i have one more question: what is linux-k7-smp?
[10:14] <glatzor> narma: "dpkg-reconfigure locales" and "vi /etc/exports"
[10:14] <mneptok> ucordes: for multi-cores and SMP machines
[10:15] <ucordes> ok
[10:15] <glatzor> ucordes: it is an obsolete package that helps to migrate from older Ubuntu versions
[10:15] <mneptok> glatzor: huh?
[10:15] <glatzor> ucordes: the current kernels detect a multi processor system during boot time
[10:16] <KenSentMe> I had totem-firefox-plugin installed, after that i installed mozilla-mplayer, but i removed that package. Now the totem plugin doesn't work anymore in firefox. I reinstalled it, but it wont work. Anyone know why>
[10:16] <mneptok> glatzor: the linux-$arch-smp kernel packages are still necessary. they provide the vector for SMP aware kernel delivery.
[10:16] <narma> thank you glatzor
[10:16] <glatzor> mneptok: vector?
[10:17] <narma> glatzor, I have no /etc/exports file into my ubuntu...
[10:17] <glatzor> narma: sorry it is /etc/environment
[10:17] <glatzor> etc exports is for nfs server :)
[10:17] <glatzor> i have to leave
[10:17] <mneptok> glatzor: without linux-$arch-smp, what package would SMP users have installed to ensure their kernel updates are SMP aware kernels?
[10:19] <Arcad3> i have a dumb question who can answer me?
[10:19] <ikonia> you have to ask it first
[10:19] <ikonia> before we know who can answer it
[10:19] <mneptok> or was that the dumb question?
[10:19] <Sktfeelsdapper> how do you get into your esound and asound configs?
[10:19] <Sktfeelsdapper> !asound
[10:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about asound - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:19] <Arcad3> that was the dumb Q
[10:19] <Sktfeelsdapper> !esd
[10:19] <ubotu> esd is the enlightened sound deamon. It's deprecated, use !alsa instead
[10:20] <Sktfeelsdapper> !alsa
[10:20] <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
[10:20] <Sktfeelsdapper> !oss
[10:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oss - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:21] <Sktfeelsdapper> does that stand for obsolete sound system =D
[10:21] <LookTJ> yes
[10:22] <Arcad3> how can i  see what files are on a site?
[10:22] <ikonia> a site ?
[10:22] <ikonia> like a web site ?
[10:22] <Arcad3> yes
[10:22] <narma> can ubuntu use local fr_FR@euro. When I do dpkg-reconfigure locales only UTF8 locales are genreted
[10:22] <ikonia> errrr how is that anything to do with ubuntu
[10:22] <ikonia> you can view the source
[10:22] <ikonia> download the whole site
[10:22] <ikonia> its up to you
[10:23] <Arcad3> how
[10:23] <ikonia> but unless you can gain access to the file system of the site
[10:23] <ikonia> how what ?
[10:23] <Arcad3> thats hacking
[10:23] <ikonia> thats not hacking ???
[10:23] <Arcad3> how to download the whole site?
[10:23] <afrosheen> uhm who owns the site in question
[10:24] <ikonia> you can only download what is in the source code/links
[10:24] <ikonia> you can't download hidden files
[10:24] <ikonia> soemthing like wget works fine
[10:24] <Arcad3> www.example.com/file.tgz
[10:24] <afrosheen> haha I bet he's trying to leech an entire porn site
[10:24] <LookTJ> i hate porn
[10:24] <ikonia> Arcad3 thats not a real site
[10:24] <LookTJ> nasty stuff
[10:24] <Arcad3> ican download butn i dont know what the filename is
[10:24] <ikonia> please give me the name of the site you want
[10:24] <Arcad3> its an example
[10:24] <afrosheen> mm hmm
[10:25] <yango> which frontend do you recommend for copying CD's when gnome's default system creates wrong ISO's?
[10:25] <Arcad3> www.jeanza.uv.ro
[10:25] <ikonia> sorry, I don't trust what your asking
[10:25] <Arcad3> i forgot the password:D
[10:25] <afrosheen> that gives a 404
[10:25] <yango> X-CD-Roast seems too audio based, but I'm tryibng to copy a data CD
[10:25] <ikonia> yango I've been impressed with gnome's nautalius burning
[10:25] <Arcad3> jeandza.uv.ro
[10:25] <afrosheen> yango: k3b is a champion of burning
[10:26] <yango> ikonia, I was too, until now, when the iso it creates is unmountable
[10:26] <tapas> afrosheen: yep
[10:26] <ikonia> yango I've never seen that personally
[10:26] <yango> ikonia, me neither, until 5 minutes ago :-)
[10:26] <afrosheen> actually I think k3b is the best burning software on any platform, I haven't found anything better
[10:27] <ikonia> afrosheen others have said that too
[10:27] <ikonia> I'm not a fan personally
[10:27] <afrosheen> different strokes
[10:27] <Shish> speaking of CDs, anyone know how to force one to eject? It looks like there was a burn error, and now it's got half way through mounting and locked up :-/
[10:27] <ikonia> exactly
[10:27] <afrosheen> Shish, as root, eject
[10:27] <afrosheen> if that doesn't work, it's hosed, get a paperclip
[10:28] <Arcad3> afrosheen:www.jeandza.uv.ro i want to know how can i view the.tgz files on it
[10:28] <Arcad3> or others
[10:28] <ikonia> Arcad3 please be quiet about that
[10:28] <Shish> "eject" locks up too :P I had thought of the paperclip method, but lack one :-/
[10:28] <Arcad3> just view them
[10:29] <ikonia> Arcad3 stop asking
[10:29] <afrosheen> Arcad3, the engrish on that site is funny
[10:29] <ikonia> that has nothing to do with unbutu
[10:29] <LookTJ> lol
[10:29] <Arcad3> english?
[10:29] <afrosheen> Arcad3, well, it's not exactly english, so we call it engrish
[10:29] <afrosheen> i.e. bad translation
[10:30] <mneptok> "engromana"
[10:30] <Arcad3> the intro is made from a guy in BE
[10:30] <afrosheen> like A-1 Lucky Hot Dog Processor Attachment Neon Ultimate
[10:30] <where> what is the command in bash to format an usb stick?
[10:30] <mneptok> afrosheen: i bought one of those. i hated the itching, but didn't mind the swelling.
[10:30] <afrosheen> lol
[10:31] <afrosheen> that's going on bash.org
[10:31] <mneptok> oh dear.
[10:32] <Arcad3> c'mon how an i get my files back?
[10:32] <afrosheen> well it's about 4 hours past my bedtime, I'm out..and arcad3, I suggest you make a trip to the hosting service and ask for a CD
[10:32] <ikonia> Arcad3 PLEASE stop asking
[10:32] <Arcad3> what time is in ur location
[10:32] <Arcad3> ??
[10:32] <ikonia> it has nothing to do with unbuntu
[10:32] <Arcad3> i use ubuntu
[10:32] <Arcad3> :P
[10:33] <ikonia> mail the site owner and ask him to refresh your password
[10:33] <Arcad3> oke thanks
[10:33] <Arcad3> i'm the owner
[10:33] <Jax-S179> haha
[10:33] <ikonia> then login to the site file system
[10:34] <Arcad3> any HAKERS irc channnels on  freenode?
[10:34] <Arcad3> or this is the only one?:)
[10:34] <ikonia> Arcad3 go away
[10:34] <ikonia> this is not a "hackers" channel
[10:34] <Jax-S179> i bet he's going to ask someone to hack his password back or something
[10:34] <Arcad3> man i'm just kidding
[10:34] <ikonia> he should just be kicked. This channel is busy enough
[10:34] <mneptok> Arcad3: yes, but you need a union card. which you need to download from a web site.
[10:35] <Jax-S179> anyway, I've been running ubuntu for 3 weeks now, and I'm very happy I made the switch. anyone here a beta tester?
[10:35] <Sktfeelsdapper> how do you find your asound.conf files?
[10:35] <Sktfeelsdapper> or your asoundrc or any of those files?
[10:36] <mneptok> Sktfeelsdapper: "locate"
[10:37] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> guys need help installing mon on edubuntu
[10:37] <cpk2> might need to updatedb to use locate usefully
[10:37] <Sktfeelsdapper> nobody knows where these files are?
[10:38] <ikonia> use find
[10:38] <mneptok> Sktfeelsdapper: locate is your friend
[10:38] <PunjabiFLOYDIAN> !mono
[10:38] <Arcad3> wtf
[10:38] <ubotu> mono: Mono CLI (.NET) runtime. In component main, is optional. Version 1.1.13.6-0ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 1 kB, installed size 24 kB
[10:38] <BHSPitLappy> locate is my friend. too
[10:38] <mneptok> (just run updatedb first as root)
[10:38] <Arcad3> we have ssh scanner in uor repository
[10:38] <LookTJ> What is point of dosing?
[10:38] <LookTJ> wasting bandwitch?
[10:39] <narma> how can I chose the charset encoding of a removable media when it is mounted (or before) ?
[10:39] <Arcad3> unmount and disable
[10:41] <nrdb> I am trying to qemu to talk to my LAN, I am using ubuntu as the host, a tap1 interface is being created, the packet counts on it do increase, but I still can't get the guest OS (DSL) to ping anything successfully.
[10:44] <muxx> hello guys. can I have a little advice ? I am installing latest ubuntu on an Athlon box with AMD chipset (not 64bit !) and having problem with ACPI-allocated I/O regions. none of the adapters work. when I turn acpi=off, it works fine. the BIOS is already latest version. what do I do ? I don't really need ACPI, but being able to power off after shutdown would be great.
[10:46] <Netslayer> how can i setup ubuntu to run on a raid set for boot? i've tried both nvidia nforce and sil controllers raid bioses onboard, booted live and they don't show up in the partioner. is my only option software linux raid?
[10:48] <Netslayer> fyi the edgy beta cd sucks at a dell 24" panel.. locks it up unless you kill x before it loads and install nvidia drivers and a proper xorg with modelines.. same issue in dapper sad it was never fixed
[10:50] <trm> Hi everyone, can anyone tell me if there is a way to install ubuntu without going into the live ubunut screen as I am having problems doing it that way.
[10:50] <enyc> trm: yes.. you use the 'alternate' cd
[10:50] <Jax-S179> there's several different live cd's
[10:50] <enyc> trm: there are some known problems with the "live" installer ('desktop' cd)
[10:50] <trm> I think i have alternate here somewhere, thanks I will give that a try.
[10:51] <enyc> trm: also note... the 6.06.1 "point release" cds have some known installer problems fixed that were present in 6.06 original cds
[10:51] <bertzke> hz there
[10:51] <bertzke> hy there
[10:51] <bertzke> i need some help pls
[10:51] <zappe> what do i write in the REWRITE Conf part to get all outgoing mails look like *@blabla.com ? (in exim)
[10:51] <bertzke> someone who has some time
[10:52] <trm> will check if our distributor has 6.06.1 this is the first installation problem ive had and yes its on a HP notebook :)
[10:52] <bertzke> to explain to me something about ubuntu
[10:52] <Arcad3> what topic
[10:52] <Arcad3> ?
[10:52] <mneptok> trm: you might want to use the alternate CD for additional control of the installation process.
[10:53] <trm> thanks I found the alternate CD, trying that now
[10:53] <rBo3Db> is there a way to start dapper installation at boot, without entering the gnome?
[10:54] <Arcad3> use the alternate cd
[10:55] <LookTJ> God I'm bored
[10:55] <rBo3Db> alternate cd, is it advice for me?
[10:55] <Arcad3> yes
[10:55] <LookTJ> Hey guys how much is a HP laserprinter?
[10:55] <LookTJ> I have 40$
[10:55] <Arcad3> google
[10:55] <trm> Thanks, alternate CD is installing fine.
[10:56] <Janchi> Question: I seem to have found the cause of Ubuntu freezing on my iMac Indigo. The culprit seems to be xserver-xorg that replaces xserver-xfree86. There is word around the grapevine that a solution exists, but I can't find it. Anyone heard about it?
[10:56] <rBo3Db> arcad3: thanks... alternate cd downloadable at usual places, with other cd isos?
[10:56] <ikonia> xorg shouldn't be a problem
[10:56] <mneptok> Janchi: Ubuntu ships with the xorg X11, not xfree
[10:57] <Arcad3> yes
[10:57] <ikonia> yes what ?
[10:57] <Arcad3> yes alternate cds downloadable at usual places
[10:57] <nrdb> I am trying to qemu to talk to my LAN, I am using ubuntu as the host, a tap1 interface is being created, the packet counts on it do increase, but I still can't get the guest OS (DSL) to ping anything successfully. :( there seems to be a problem with with the ARP protocol not going between the guest and the host OS.
[10:57] <ikonia> nrb you asked the same question about a minute ago
[10:58] <rBo3Db> arcad3, thanks
[10:58] <Arcad3> np
[10:58] <nrdb> ikonia: 15 minutes ago, I have new info to.
[10:58] <Arcad3> ikonia M or F?
[10:59] <ikonia> my time stamp says 8 minutes ago
[10:59] <ikonia> Arcad3 why ?
[10:59] <Arcad3> in my contry ur nick uses a naighbour  of mine
[11:00] <Arcad3> a F
[11:00] <Arcad3> is no joke
[11:01] <ikonia> I didn't think it was a joke
[11:01] <Arcad3> she puts c instead of k
[11:02] <kaffeewoller> hi
[11:02] <steamR> xchat #Ubuntu | filter 'bullshit' --> returns none

[11:03] <kedde> Does anybody know a C++ example or code for API to wireless networking?
[11:03] <pilou> is there a way to install not UTF8 locales into ubuntu ?
[11:04] <mneptok> kaffeewoller: you'll need a compositing manager and other sundries for a transparent GNOME
[11:04] <spocky> hi
[11:04] <mneptok> kaffeewoller: it is not straightforward, and should not be attempted unless you know a bit about X11.
[11:04] <Arcad3> try gnome look
[11:05] <kaffeewoller> mneptok: no, i dont know too much about x. thanks
[11:05] <kaffeewoller> Arcad3: i did
[11:05] <Arcad3> why u want gnome transparent?
[11:05] <kaffeewoller> i just wondered whether there is some button or slider or value in the configuration manager...
[11:05] <mneptok> kaffeewoller: as AIGLX and FGLX and others get more mature this stuff will become less of an issue.
[11:06] <Arcad3> it isnt
[11:06] <Janchi> mneptok, exactly. On the iMac xorg freezes. I found that out while installing Debian Sarge. Sarge still uses xfree, but when upgrading to Sid it froze like Ubuntu. xserver-xorg seems to be the culprit
[11:06] <kaffeewoller> mneptok: i believe that, ubuntu is developing fast
[11:06] <ikonia> thats a poor way to diagnose the problem
[11:07] <mneptok> Janchi: are these clean installs, or aer you trying to overwite one X11 implementation with another and expecting no problems? ;)
[11:07] <kaffeewoller> i just wondered, because having panels or the terminal transparent is possible by now
[11:07] <kaffeewoller> why not nautilus, too?
[11:09] <ucordes> how can i scroll up and down in command line mode?
[11:09] <ikonia> page up / down
[11:09] <ucordes> ikonia: doesn't work
[11:09] <gandolfthewizard> gm all
[11:10] <ikonia> ucordes what terminal are you using
[11:10] <bionoid> ucordes: shift+pgup/pgdown then?
[11:10] <ucordes> no terminal. i'm in rescue mode or whatever it is called
[11:10] <gandolfthewizard> looking for some help in installing a plug in for firefox
[11:10] <Janchi> mneptok, Ubuntu Dapper on the iMac was a clean install. Sarge was a clean install, from Sarge to Sid was an upgrade
[11:10] <Arcad3> ucordes why r u in rescue mode?
[11:11] <Arcad3> ur x failed?
[11:11] <cpk2> ucordes: hold shift while pressing page up and page down
[11:11] <ucordes> Arcad3: my xserver won't start
[11:11] <cpk2> oops bionoid beat me to it
[11:11] <Arcad3> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:12] <gandolfthewizard> can someone help me in installing the flash player plug in in fire fox
[11:12] <ucordes> bionoid: that's all i ever wanted :-) thanks
[11:12] <Arcad3> good luck

[11:12] <Arcad3> np
[11:12] <Sktfeelsdapper> Where are these /etc/asound files i keep seeing?
[11:12] <ucordes> the command line is a nice thing. and i didn't know that there was a text based irc
[11:12] <Sktfeelsdapper> I'm not seeing them at all.
[11:12] <ucordes> i found it out by accident
[11:13] <Arcad3> ucordes let me guess
[11:13] <Sktfeelsdapper> i didn't like that console based irc
[11:13] <Arcad3> u had installed nvidia driver?
[11:13] <rBo3Db> in drake release notes, i see the min ram requirement of 256MB... using an alternate cd and installing windowmaker instead of gnome, will the min ram requirement will be that of windowmaker?
[11:13] <Sktfeelsdapper> !asound
[11:13] <Arcad3> and the x failed
[11:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about asound - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[11:14] <skar_> hi, how do i make gnome-terminal treat "alt+uparrow" to scroll up by a single line?
[11:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> i'm trying to find these asoundrc thing so i can figure it.
[11:14] <ucordes> and the driver was unusuable after i switched from 386 to K7
[11:14] <ucordes> but ill try out the reconfigure now
[11:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> ANd I can't find it anywhere, and it's driving me crazy because i've been to it before.
[11:14] <Sktfeelsdapper> Just the other day.
[11:14] <Arcad3> u shold read a viki before install
[11:14] <Arcad3> about ati
[11:14] <gandolfthewizard> i needto install a plug in for firefox any help
[11:15] <ucordes> Arcad3: is there a text based browser?
[11:15] <noner> Hello, is there a way to view list of handy commands in Ubuntu?
[11:15] <Sktfeelsdapper> anybody asound config?
[11:15] <Parama> ucordes: lynx
[11:15] <Arcad3> yes
[11:15] <Arcad3> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[11:15] <pilou> ucordes, elinks or w3m are much more friendly
[11:16] <ucordes> pilou: which one of those is your favourite?
[11:16] <noner> I got an error message did you just see my post?
[11:16] <pilou> I use elinks since I knew about w3m after ;)
[11:16] <Arcad3> ucordes in the x configuration  at the display driver hoose the default
[11:16] <Parama> noner: yes
[11:16] <rBo3Db> is 256MB min ram requirement in drake related to gnome? if i replace gnome with another WM, may that req. reduce?
[11:17] <Parama> noner: but handy commands is not very specific
[11:17] <Parama> what do you want to do?
[11:17] <noner> Parama: some way to view the commands commonly used in Ubuntu?
[11:17] <Arcad3> can someone donate me a mainboard?
[11:17] <Arcad3> :)
[11:18] <pilou> is it possible for ubuntu to deals with non UTF8 encoding files ?
[11:18] <rBo3Db> i want to install drake on a machine with 128MB ram, 500 MHz cpu
[11:18] <pilou> I can't find non UTF8 locales :(
[11:18] <Parama> noner: but again 'commonly' is a hard one to categorize
[11:18] <trm> Arcad3, I have a spare 286 board ure welcome to have.
[11:18] <ucordes> Arcad3: sudo apt-get install bunch-of-free-mainboards
[11:18] <Parama> it's really hard, so sorry
[11:18] <Arcad3> =))
[11:18] <Parama> help
[11:18] <Janchi> mneptok, one of the solutions that was suggested was not to use the FBDev option. I was curious whether someone had experience with it.
[11:18] <noner> Parama: Ubuntu's help doesn't list them somewhere?
[11:18] <Parama> help  - would give you a list
[11:19] <Parama> not that i know of
[11:19] <trm> is automatics still usable/advisable with ubuntu 6 ?
[11:19] <mneptok> Janchi: the solution is to abandon the deprecated XFree86 for X.org ;)
[11:21] <gandolfthewizard> can't find the package
[11:21] <kedde>  Does anybody know a C++ example code or API to wireless networking on Linux?
[11:21] <tripppy> should i ask here about GRUB boot errors when installing Ubuntu?
[11:22] <trm> anyone know if automatics still usable/advisable with ubuntu 6 ? Or is there an alternative
[11:22] <ic56> noner: the Debian reference manual has list of commands in one of its chapters. Ubuntu is based on Debian so this is a good list.  Hang on while I lookup a URL.
[11:22] <Janchi> mneptok, sorry but that is exactly what is causing the problem on the iMac. X.org is freezing, not xfree86
[11:22] <ucordes> few finnaly got the xserver back.
[11:22] <noner> ic56: please do
[11:22] <Arcad3> gando....: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[11:22] <Arcad3> good
[11:23] <mneptok> Janchi: probably because you have old bits of XFree lying around
[11:23] <gandolfthewizard> i really apreciate this help guys i am new to linux but i am learning
[11:23] <Arcad3> is nothing
[11:23] <Arcad3> gando
[11:24] <Arcad3> search it on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[11:24] <Arcad3> and install manualy
[11:24] <Arcad3> if doesnt work
[11:24] <ucordes> how does one call the things that come up on <ctrl><alt><F1>-<F6> ?
[11:24] <gandolfthewizard> i tried to install i manually but it said that i did not have permission to do that
[11:25] <mneptok> gandolfthewizard: what are you trying to install?
[11:25] <gandolfthewizard> flash player
[11:25] <trm> ok let me ask this a different way, I need to do many new installations with the least amount of manual labour/manual configuration but I still need all the basic plugins/applications installed. Are there any utilities I can use to automate some of the basic tasks ?
[11:25] <Janchi> mneptok, how is that possible with a clean install of Dapper?
[11:25] <Arcad3> for firefox
[11:25] <gandolfthewizard> yes for firefox
[11:25] <mneptok> gandolfthewizard: Ubuntu, Kubuntu, ... ?
[11:25] <gandolfthewizard> ubuntu
[11:26] <mneptok> gandolfthewizard: open Synaptic Package Manager. enable the Universe and Multiverse repositiories. reload package info. then install "flashplugin-nonfree"
[11:26] <Arcad3> gandolfthewizard i gave u the 2 links
[11:26] <mneptok> Janchi: it is possible because you probably did not reformat the partition on which Linux lives.
[11:26] <gandolfthewizard> how do i do that
[11:26] <ic56> noner: here it is. Install the reference manual: apt-get install debian-reference-common debian-reference-en   Then point your browser to file:///usr/share/doc/Debian/reference/ch-tutorial.en.html
[11:26] <Arcad3> first do the one with repositories
[11:27] <mneptok> gandolfthewizard: try it first. it's easy.
[11:27] <Arcad3> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_add_extra_repositories  then http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[11:27] <trm> no response, dissappointing.
[11:27] <Arcad3> just tipe the given commands in u console
[11:28] <mneptok> trm: look into Ubuntu preseeding
[11:28] <Arcad3> *ur
[11:28] <ikonia> trm not sure I understood your question
[11:28] <Janchi> mneptop, he he, got you there. I installed it on an iMac. A complete reformat of the harddrive was needed in order to make that happen.
[11:28] <noner> ic56: Thanks for your help. Can I get the downloadbale link for Windows? I am searching, If you have the link at hand pls give but dont bother abt it.
[11:28] <ic56> noner: let me see
[11:29] <Arcad3> noner i give windows
[11:29] <Arcad3> sp3
[11:29] <ucordes> is there a command line icq?
[11:29] <Arcad3> with 6000 trojans installed
[11:29] <mneptok> Janchi: x.org works perfectly well on PPC. i have installed it countless times on Apple hardware. x.org itself is not the problem.
[11:29] <trm> ikonia, I need to install ubuntu on about 30 workstations, but i need them fully functional with plugins and configuration, I am looking for a utility (same as what automatics did) to assist me in all these installations.
[11:29] <ikonia> ucordes there is but I can't remember the name
[11:29] <mneptok> ucordes: bitlbee
[11:29] <VladimirBG> hi, can anyone help with an adsl modem issue?
[11:29] <ikonia> trm kickstart with the debian installer and some scripting in the post install section
[11:30] <Arcad3> trm u need the dvd
[11:30] <ikonia> or a network install
[11:30] <Arcad3> or use knoppix 5.0
[11:30] <mneptok> trm: what you want is a combination of preseeding and apt-cache.
[11:31] <Arcad3> better use knoppix
[11:31] <ikonia> nah, kickstart will do most of it, then some post-install scripts will tidy up
[11:31] <tripppy> i've just installed ubuntu onto hdd4 with a extented partiton for swap. i ran live cd, installed, rebooted and got a GRUB error.
[11:31] <Arcad3> it has it all codecs wine ...
[11:31] <cpk2> you can add your own plugins onto the install iso
[11:31] <Janchi> mneptop, I know. That is what makes it frustrating to attempt any solution. People who have the problem (a minority) also report it is erratic and not constant.
[11:31] <uwjames> and another newbie enters the room (that would be me).. wouldn't you know it, my sound card doesn't work
[11:31] <trm> all sounds pretty greek unfortunately, is kickstart an application ?
[11:31] <LookTJ> how do i change spaslh screen?
[11:32] <ikonia> LookTJ .splash or the splash screen config tool
[11:32] <ikonia> trm its an automated install process
[11:32] <Arcad3> or leave it like that
[11:32] <noner> ic56: got it
[11:32] <stu_> could someone look at this for me please: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25481/
[11:32] <trm> ikonia, its only on the DVD ?
[11:32] <gandolfthewizard> ty guys
[11:32] <ic56> noner: cool. ttyl
[11:32] <LookTJ> ok
[11:32] <ikonia> no its available in the repo
[11:32] <noner> ic56: here http://packages.debian.org/stable/doc/debian-reference-common
[11:33] <trm> ikonia, ok let me dig around some, thanks
[11:33] <VladimirBG> I use us robotics sureconnect adsl modem, and I can't figureout how to enable it. It's connected trough ethernet..
[11:33] <uwjames> so would anyone happen to know how I can get my on-board sound card to work? (apollo super acpi)
[11:34] <mneptok> VladimirBG: there should be no configuration necessary. do you use PPPoE?
[11:35] <VladimirBG> mneptok, yes, but it requires to input username and password
[11:35] <VladimirBG> mneptok, under fedora I use xdsl template with eth0
[11:35] <pip> hello,I can not restart my X windows with <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Backspace>,how to fix it ?
[11:35] <cpk2> trm: I believe there is also a tool that lets you add things onto the iso so you wouldnt have to apt-get and stuff after it installs
[11:36] <mneptok> VladimirBG: /usr/sbin/pppoeconf
[11:36] <noner> What do you think of downloading ubuntu via emule? Mine is an older version.
[11:36] <VladimirBG> mneptok, that's all?
[11:36] <mneptok> noner: why not just use BitTorrent?
[11:36] <mneptok> VladimirBG: da
[11:36] <VladimirBG> mneptok, thanks
[11:36] <pip> any ideas ?
[11:37] <mneptok> VladimirBG: pahjulstah
[11:37] <noner> mneptok: that would be safer?
[11:37] <LookTJ> I believe Ubuntu support is greater than Windows support :P
[11:37] <mneptok> noner: safer and faster
[11:37] <mneptok> LookTJ: e-mail that thought to Mark Shuttleworth, please :)
[11:38] <amarillion> Hello, how do I find out which package provides libxpcom.so?
[11:38] <noner> mneptok: I will look for torrent file then, thanks
[11:38] <LookTJ> who's he?
[11:38] <mneptok> noner: there are .torrents on the official mirror sites. we officially distribute *Ubuntu via BT.
[11:39] <noner> mneptok: I see
[11:39] <noner> mneptok: familiar with OReilly Ubuntu Hacks Tips and Tools for Exploring Using and Tuning Linux.chm?
[11:39] <rBo3Db> if i boot from a live cd into gnome (drake), then switch to a terminal, is there a way to launch the installer?

[12:14] <amarillion> I guess I could install ALL packages and then do that
[12:14] <hastesaver> whitedeth, use <TAB> (if you're using xchat, or some good chat client; not gaim or something!)
[12:15] <THX-1138> LookTJ: Okay, on one condition you get to spell mine wrong once. - grin
[12:15] <LookTJ> THX-1138: Whatever lol

[12:18] <THX-1138> Jax-S179 - yes, and it ewould be nice if you didn't have to check for the app name to run it once from the command line to configure it. to bee seen by the menu.
[12:18] <daurnimator> for *nix, i've liked kvirc
[12:18] <markrian> What about xchat-gnome?
[12:18] <whitedeth> I agree with daurnimator.
[12:18] <whitedeth> Konversation is THE best.
[12:18] <grayscale> can someone help me mount some NTFS drives in linux? im trying to recover some data on some hd's

[12:20] <daurnimator> daurnimator@desktop:/srv/neuros-osd-rootfs$ ls
[12:20] <THX-1138> whazilla - if you use the ipaddress in your browser you can access it? - is your router looking for a setup disk with access to activex controls. my old router could only be configured on windows.
[12:20] <LookTJ> whitedeth: I'm gnome
[12:20] <markrian> grayscale: there should be a Disks applet in the Administration menu
[12:20] <whitedeth> daurnimator: Use the pastebin?
[12:21] <daurnimator> bin  boot  dev  etc  lib  linuxrc  mnt  proc  root  sbin  tmp  usr  var
[12:21] <markrian> From there you can mount the partition
[12:21] <THX-1138> !mount > grayscale

[12:21] <daurnimator> why didn't the stuff get deleted?
[12:22] <hastesaver> whitedeth, what can possibly be *not* userfriendly in an IRC client?

[12:23] <qiv> hi ... does anyone know about saving data from a formated ext3 partition? :)
[12:23] <hastesaver> daurnimator, xchat is not a commandline app... but I've used ircii too :)
[12:24] <THX-1138> whitedeth - gnome-xchat or xchat gnome - yep. no spell checking configured by default either.
[12:24] <hastesaver> whitedeth, oh, xchat-gnome (which comes by default with Ubuntu, I guess) is not xchat (this is probably the topic in #xchat, I don't know :-)
[12:24] <whitedeth> oh heh
[12:24] <hastesaver> THX-1138, does anyone care about spell-checking on IRC? I wish
[12:24] <rob> xchat has spell checking?
[12:24] <daurnimator> hastesaver: xchat is just too bare... i don't like reading from notepad for serveral hours
[12:24] <Jax-S179> gaim does
[12:24] <Jax-S179> I'm using it now
[12:24] <THX-1138> hastesaver LookTJ - does
[12:24] <whitedeth> does Konversation have spell check?
[12:25] <hastesaver> whitedeth, lol, you're using it :-)
[12:25] <grayscale> using the browse button in the disks manager, it says i dont have the proper permissions to look at any of my HD partitons
[12:25] <rob> well, my xchat has spell check via a perl script :)
[12:25] <whitedeth> hastesaver: im lazy.
[12:25] <whitedeth> :P
[12:25] <whitedeth> someone install it and check for me? :P
[12:25] <whitedeth> hahaha
[12:25] <LookTJ> on Konversation
[12:25] <LookTJ> :)
[12:25] <whitedeth> wow. Cool. This is a nice feature.
[12:25] <whitedeth> a "remember line".
[12:26] <whitedeth> it puts a thick line through the convo to help me remember that point in the convo.
[12:26] <hastesaver> daurnimator, really? What's not bare on konversation? (I can't try it; not installed here)
[12:26] <Sktfeelsdapper> where do i send debs to be downloaded?
[12:26] <hastesaver> whitedeth, xchat does that too
[12:26] <daurnimator> i don't know konversation
[12:26] <daurnimator> i use kvirc
[12:26] <hastesaver> whitedeth, it does that automatically whenever you switch channels
[12:26] <Sktfeelsdapper> anybody?
[12:26] <Sktfeelsdapper> Debs?
[12:26] <whitedeth> hastesaver: xhchat probably copied it from Konversation :P
[12:26] <hastesaver> daurnimator, kvirc not installed here either; tell me about it :-)
[12:26] <daurnimator> uh
[12:26] <Sktfeelsdapper> Where do I send a deb to be downloaded properly? Because I can't find them on my apt-get
[12:26] <daurnimator> install it yourself

[12:27] <Sktfeelsdapper> but will it go to the right place?
[12:27] <Sktfeelsdapper> if i use dpkg -d?

[12:28] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, it's usually not a good idea to compile anything, unless you're sure it's not there in any repo (or it's a program you wrote ;-))
[12:28] <Sktfeelsdapper> I can't find it in the repos
[12:28] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, ok, so dpkg -i will install the .deb
[12:28] <Sktfeelsdapper> it's a dbus-1 package i need to make last-exit-3 work.
[12:29] <Sktfeelsdapper> it will for sure or will i have to go into synaptic blah blah?
[12:29] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, at least, there is no other way to do it :-)
[12:29] <Sktfeelsdapper> but will it install it for real?
[12:29] <LookTJ> xchat doesn't blink like Konversation does
[12:29] <Sktfeelsdapper> or do i have to go into synaptic and mark it?
[12:29] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, try it and see. It's the only way to install a .deb, so ....
[12:29] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, it won't appear in synaptic
[12:30] <Sktfeelsdapper> then how will i know if it's installed?

[12:32] <LookTJ> oh
[12:32] <LookTJ> I uninstalled XChat anyways

[12:34] <unfknblvbl> how do i figure out what port Bittorrent uses ?
[12:34] <Sktfeelsdapper> and dbus-glib something or other.
[12:34] <THX-1138> whazilla - possibly, can you see if dhcp is enabled. - still puzzled why you cant use you browser to see your router. - wrong port?
[12:34] <Sktfeelsdapper> And they don't show up in the repos.
[12:34] <cpk2> unfknblvbl: normally oyu tell it
[12:34] <hastesaver> Sktfeelsdapper, what's last exit, BTW?

[12:47] <Jax-S179> I'll try that now
[12:47] <nmbooker> let me know if it works
[12:47] <LookTJ> you humor me
[12:47] <THX-1138> LookTJ - lol - I guess the liquid paper on screen isn't helping?
[12:48] <bionoid> Eek. Management wants me to create a "cyber-cae"  in which client computers require authentication to access the internet, and detailed reports on what users accessed what websites at what time. Anyone familiar with an existing solution for such privacy-invasion?
[12:48] <THX-1138> "White-Out"
[12:48] <bionoid> cyber-cafe, even.
[12:48] <techno_freak> hi all, I got a crash report when my firefox crashed, how to send/file it ?
[12:48] <whazilla> THX-1138 iptables --list doesn't show one ip ... is that normal ?
[12:49] <micael_> THX-1138 i will come back and help if i can
[12:49] <harisund> bionoid, I am not aware of any "software" that does that ... but there are ways you could achieve that anyway ..

[12:49] <LookTJ> I think i'm gonna get in trouble
[12:49] <THX-1138> my spelling is awful.
[12:49] <whazilla> THX-1138 iptables --list doesn't show one ip ... is that normal ?
[12:50] <harisund> whazilla, iptables --list doesn't show one ip? What ip addresses does an iptables listing show anyway?
[12:50] <whazilla> never really used iptables
[12:50] <HabaKKuk> do you ppl know any software for making/mixing music for ubuntu ?
[12:50] <LookTJ> for staying up all night
[12:50] <THX-1138> bionoid: www.canonical.com/
[12:50] <nmbooker> Jax-S179: got your menu entries?
[12:50] <LookTJ> :S

[12:50] <bionoid> THX-1138: Ok will have a look at that, cheers
[12:51] <Jax-S179> No I'm sorry it didn't work

[12:51] <nmbooker> Jax-S179: What did you install?  Some packages (helpfully :) dont provide menu entries.
[12:52] <Jax-S179> things such as kalarm
[12:52] <Jax-S179> also some network tools that came with ubuntu
[12:52] <HabaKKuk> please!!!
[12:52] <HabaKKuk> ;] 
[12:52] <HabaKKuk> music makin soft
[12:52] <HabaKKuk> anyoneE?
[12:52] <HabaKKuk> got any ideas/
[12:52] <HabaKKuk> ?
[12:52] <Jax-S179> for instance, I clicked on applications then add/remove
[12:52] <LookTJ> no
[12:52] <Ash-Fox> Yes.
[12:52] <Jax-S179> i just installed everything that looked of intrest
[12:52] <xenoNfluX> HabaKKuk, try Ardour :)
[12:52] <Jax-S179> now I cant find any of it
[12:52] <LookTJ> is there rule on spam?
[12:52] <HabaKKuk> ok i will
[12:53] <HabaKKuk> if its not a joke
[12:53] <HabaKKuk> :P
[12:53] <cpk2> Jax-S179: do yuo remember the name? try typing the name in a terminal
[12:53] <xenoNfluX> HabaKKuk, I don't know of any good midi sequencers, but Ardour seems to be a rather powerful DAW sans midi sequencer
[12:53] <Jax-S179> ok, i'll try kalarm
[12:53] <Jax-S179> and you can just call me Jax to save time :-)
[12:54] <xenoNfluX> Jax, are you running GNOME?
[12:54] <HabaKKuk> xenoNfluX: could not find packGE
[12:54] <HabaKKuk> ;P
[12:54] <LookTJ> THX-138 you can call me TJ
[12:54] <xenoNfluX> hm, ardour should be in apt
[12:54] <xenoNfluX> I think that's how I installed it
[12:54] <HabaKKuk> it should but its not :P
[12:55] <xenoNfluX> do you have the universe/multiverse repositories set up?
[12:55] <HabaKKuk> yes
[12:55] <Madpilot> !info ardour
[12:55] <xenoNfluX> odd
[12:55] <Jax-S179> oh jesus, not to sound like a compete newb but I'm not sure
[12:55] <ubotu> Package ardour does not exist in any distro I know
[12:55] <Jax-S179> I believe so
[12:55] <HabaKKuk> .;

[12:55] <xenoNfluX> you could always install it manually there :)
[12:55] <HabaKKuk> hehe
[12:55] <HabaKKuk> okay thanks mate
[12:55] <HabaKKuk> :)
[12:55] <nmbooker> Jax: KDE applications like Kalarm wont always show up in a GNOME menu for some reason.  Try restarting GNOME.  Failing that, you might have to use Alacarte to add the entries your self.  A pain I know.
[12:56] <xenoNfluX> music is just one of those things that Linux is unfortunately not ahead of the pack in
[12:56] <Jax-S179> ah, what I was doing is that I was going through the add/remove menu entries screen
[12:56] <xenoNfluX> I'm not saying you can't do it in Linux... its just more prudent to use another OS to do it, usually
[12:56] <cpk2> Jax-S179: its takes no more time to type jax then it does Jax-S179 (most irc clients tab complete names)
[12:56] <HabaKKuk> xenoNfluX: its young sistem still, let em just go ahead
[12:56] <HabaKKuk> ;)
[12:57] <xenoNfluX> hehe
[12:57] <BiSk-8> hello, is there any irc client that permits me to continue a file transfer.. for example my host disconnects and he comes back on and wants to continue. mIrc has it on windows but xchat2 doesnt... can any1 help?
[12:57] <nmbooker> cpk2: Thanks for that - didnt know.
[12:57] <xenoNfluX> I'd love to see Linux get ahead in this area, don't get me wrong
[12:57] <xenoNfluX> its just one thing that has me keep a Windows partition, or use a dedicated Windows machine for music production :)
[12:58] <Jax-S179> so I guess for now I'm going to have to run the konsole to run those apps that aren't listen
[12:58] <Jax-S179> I'll retry to restart GNOME
[12:58] <Jax-S179> thanks for all the help everyone
[12:58] <babo> Anyone have any VOIP experience here ?
[12:58] <HabaKKuk> xenoNfluX: i just realized
[12:58] <HabaKKuk> that
[12:58] <xenoNfluX> Jax, yeah... some apps may not show up right away, you may have to restart Gnome
[12:58] <cpk2> doesnt gnome have a "run command..." like in kde's kmenu?
[12:58] <HabaKKuk> im not sure if i know hotwo install that stuff manually
[12:59] <HabaKKuk> ;)
[12:59] <babo> integrating VOIP clients into client side apps ... ?
[12:59] <Jax-S179> how can I restart GNOME?
[12:59] <Jax-S179> just restart the computer?
[12:59] <unfknblvbl> ctrl-alt-backspace ?
[12:59] <cpk2> Jax-S179: no, ctrl-alt-backspace but that is kinda the unnice way to do it
[01:00] <cpk2> Jax-S179: should probably end you session first
[01:00] <Jax-S179> yea, kinda like ctrl-alt-del on windows machines
[01:00] <LookTJ> jax-s179: ctrl+alt+backspace
[01:00] <nmbooker> Jax-S179: Log out and back in, its cleaner.
[01:00] <Jax-S179> ok, i'll do that in a second
[01:00] <Jax-S179> thank you
[01:01] <nmbooker> no problem
[01:01] <nmbooker> cpk2: No it used to but they decided in their infinite wisdom to remove it.
[01:02] <ovy> I installed ubuntu 5.04 and my mouse doesn't work any ideas?
[01:02] <nmbooker> cpk2: Use Alt+F2, or you can add an applet to the panel that brings up the run dialog.
[01:02] <xenoNfluX> ovy, any reason to choose 5.04 over 6.06?
[01:03] <LookTJ> lol
[01:03] <ovy> not really I read a forum on installing ubuntu without a cd and rushed doing that without looking at the version
[01:03] <LookTJ> LMAO
[01:03] <brainstew> hey is there a way to get these kde transparency thingies to xfce?
[01:03] <cpk2> nmbooker: i use kde, was just curious for Jax-S179 =)
[01:03] <xenoNfluX> oh haha
[01:03] <ovy> it was pretty new so I assumed it was 6.06
[01:04] <xenoNfluX> if its a fresh install, you could always just go ahead and install 6.06
[01:04] <LookTJ> ovy: that was stupid without reading
[01:04] <LookTJ> :P
[01:04] <xenoNfluX> I've noticed 6.06 has better hardware support than 5.04
[01:04] <ovy> it was fresh post I thought they were talking about 6.06 lol
[01:04] <xenoNfluX> 5.04 was hoary, right?
[01:04] <ovy> ya
[01:04] <LookTJ> ovy: ctrl+shift+f1
[01:04] <THX-1138> brainstew - I use xcompmgr (my card doesn't like compiz) Transparency, drop shadows,
[01:04] <Asc> Could he just do an upgrade to 6.06?  Or is 5.04 too old?
[01:05] <gunfus> I was told to clean up my modules/config
[01:05] <gunfus> where can I find that
[01:05] <Sktfeelsdapper> what an ungodly trial.
[01:05] <LookTJ> then type sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[01:05] <xenoNfluX> I've got a whole BOX full of Hoary CDs.... they screwed up and instead of sending me 3 CDs, they sent me 300 XD

[01:05] <xenoNfluX> that drops you to a bash terminal
[01:05] <LookTJ> ovy: ctrl+shift+f1 then login
[01:06] <HabaKKuk> xenoNfluX: can you give me a simple guide how to install that stuff ?
[01:06] <nmbooker> HabaKKuk: For midi, theres Rosegarden.
[01:06] <HabaKKuk> ;P
[01:06] <xenoNfluX> it opens another session
[01:06] <gunfus> I was told to clean up my modules/config
[01:06] <gunfus> where can I find that
[01:06] <HabaKKuk> okay
[01:06] <LookTJ> then type sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[01:06] <LookTJ> ovy: k?
[01:06] <xenoNfluX> F1-F4 are bash sessions, F5-F9 are X sessions, I believe
[01:07] <ovy> I don't get it  ...I kep windows just in case and I instlled ubuntu on emty space
[01:07] <ovy> I log in and what?
[01:07] <gunfus> I was told to clean up my modules/config, where can I find that..?
[01:07] <brainstew> THX-1138, i aptitude installed xcompmgr so what will i do now :D?
[01:07] <xenoNfluX> HabaKKuk, its not going to be as simple as it once was for me.... I can't seem to find the package in the repositories, either
[01:07] <LookTJ> sorry ovy, do ctrl+alt+f1

[01:10] <LookTJ> 4. sudo shutdown -r

[01:10] <xenoNfluX> habakkuk, do sudo apt-get build-dep ardour
[01:10] <LookTJ> ovy you there?
[01:11] <xenoNfluX> if you have the source repositories set up, that might work
[01:11] <gunfus> nmbooker: it was an email from the v4l people "...Try to clean up your modules/config, check for duplicate tuner and
[01:11] <gunfus> tda9887 modules and in case you install mercurial remove the old..."
[01:11] <wiiiwhazilla_> got network running finally
[01:11] <daurnimator> uh] 
[01:11] <Zach`> hey all, just installed Ubuntu and I'm stuck in the log-in screen. I'm typing the username and password and it's seems like the password is wrong! but it doesn't...
[01:11] <daurnimator> whats the parameter to pass to tar to overwrite existing files?
[01:12] <LookTJ> congrats wiiwhazilla
[01:12] <daurnimator> Zach`: does it just keep going back to login screen?
[01:12] <LookTJ> or whazilla
[01:12] <THX-1138> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25490/ - You will also likely want transset or transset-df (won't compile for me get a binary.) option "RenderAccel" "true" may help with nvidia cards
[01:12] <whazilla> :D
[01:12] <LookTJ> lol
[01:12] <THX-1138> Brainstew ^^^
[01:12] <Madpilot> Zach`, you gave a username & password during installation, and those don't work?
[01:12] <brainstew> k..
[01:12] <daurnimator> any1: whats the parameter to pass to tar to overwrite existing files?
[01:12] <Zach`> corrent, Madpilot.
[01:13] <nmbooker> gunfus: No sorry cant help there.  Sounds like they mean your kernel config and modules, but I think its best you clarify with the v4l guys.  Im sure theyve got an IRC channel...
[01:13] <Madpilot> Zach`, very odd. Standard install?
[01:13] <Zach`> via vmware.
[01:13] <gunfus> okay
[01:13] <gunfus> nmbooker: Thanks anywayws
[01:13] <daurnimator> Zach`: does it just keep going back to login screen?
[01:13] <Zach`> and in the right corner I can see my name 'Zach'.
[01:13] <gunfus> so then another question..
[01:13] <Zach`> daurnimator, yup.
[01:13] <whazilla> --overwrite
[01:13] <daurnimator> i had that problem earlier today
[01:13] <gunfus> how can I find out which package owns ivtv
[01:14] <Zach`> how did you fixed it up?
[01:14] <Madpilot> need sleep - night, all
[01:14] <daurnimator> whazilla: nope
[01:14] <xenoNfluX> quick Q... after running 'apt-get build-dep package' would 'apt-get install -b package' be the correct followup?
[01:14] <whazilla> daurn

[01:16] <codecaine> sudo it of course
[01:16] <codecaine> anybody else has this problem?

[01:19] <gaminggeek> Anyone know how I can clean out all unoffical repos?
[01:19] <micael_> is it ony my irc that is lagging
[01:20] <gaminggeek> and all the apps they have installed?
[01:20] <THX-1138> !easysource > gamingeek
[01:20] <THX-1138> !easysource > gaminggeek
[01:20] <gaminggeek> 'cause I seem to have made a little bit of a mess and begeal and banshee don't go
[01:20] <gaminggeek> Thanks
[01:21] <xenoNfluX> sorry for the repeat, but quick Q... after running 'apt-get build-dep package' would 'apt-get install -b package' be the correct followup?
[01:21] <brainstew> THX-1138, so if i add these 2 options to xorg.conf it will do what? .. i added them
[01:21] <stu_> whats the correct way to upgrade my kernel ??
[01:21] <micael_> is there a ftp server that i can have so a xp box can send files to my ubuntu box
[01:21] <stu_> I wanna go to 2.6.17-27
[01:21] <Crewer> stu_, apt-get install kernel should do it?
[01:22] <THX-1138> brainstew  xcompmgr -cCfF -r 4 -l 0 -t 0 -D 5 & transset .6
[01:22] <Crewer> Is 6.06 LTS stable server version?
[01:22] <gaminggeek> THX-1138, What about removing the things I installed from that repo?
[01:22] <Sktfeelsdapper> so i just installed something.
[01:22] <Sktfeelsdapper> and now i can't find it?
[01:22] <xenoNfluX> stu, if you're not wanting to run bleeding-edge, Ubuntu will show when new kernels are available in the notification area... or the Update Manager
[01:22] <jomino> what did you install Sktfeelsdapper ?
[01:23] <THX-1138> gaminggeek - Ah, I guessed you wanted a clean sources list.
[01:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> last fm
[01:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> last exit 3 i mean
[01:23] <CCmonster> Does Ubuntu support a bluetooth desktop such as Microsoft bluetooth keyboard and mouse
[01:23] <CCmonster> ?
[01:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> and i configured and make'd it
[01:23] <Jax-S179> i believe so ccmonster
[01:23] <Sktfeelsdapper> and it said something about making a icon in apps but i can't find it.
[01:23] <gaminggeek> CCmonster, you mean wireless or bluetooth?
[01:23] <jomino> Sktfeelsdapper, locate last*fm?
[01:23] <CCmonster> the only mouse keyboard i have at the moment is bluetooth
[01:23] <Kream> i have just installed kubuntu, choosing hindi right from the beginning as a language... wich means that my locales, such as LANG and LC_CTYPE are all hi_IN. Unfortunately, when I type filenames in Hindi, they show up as garbled characters. Can someone tell me what I should do to resolve the problem ?
[01:24] <CCmonster> Bluetooh mouse+keyoard..not wireless..
[01:24] <jomino> perhaps you have to add the icon yourself Sktfeelsdapper
[01:24] <Kream> is there any procedure to change the locale to a unicode one ?
[01:24] <gaminggeek> ok
[01:24] <Crewer> Kream, dpkg-reconfig locales or something
[01:24] <Crewer> Is 6.06 LTS stable in server version?
[01:24] <THX-1138> Kream - add the hindi font to /usr/share/fonts or your own directory /fonts  (CTRL+H unhides hidden files.)
[01:25] <THX-1138> Kream - That sounds like a bug.  - You could report it if you have the time,
[01:25] <xenoNfluX> Crewer, yes... LTS means Long Term Support... 6.06 will be THE stable server version of Ubuntu for up to 3-4 years until the next LTS version
[01:25] <CCmonster> Ubuntu will not recognize my bluetooth upon setup and give me the needed packages right?
[01:26] <THX-1138> !fonts
[01:26] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[01:26] <Crewer> xenoNfluX, aha. All my servers run 5.04 now. I feelin' it's time to upgrade now.
[01:26] <ubotu> No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, and gsfonts-x11 , No fonts in mplayer? see !mplayer
[01:26] <Kream> THX-1138: I have full hindi font capability
[01:26] <LookTJ> !mplayer
[01:26] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. Enable multiverse repo and type sudo apt-get install mplayer for more info please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer  To compile it from source see:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer/Compile
[01:26] <Sktfeelsdapper> ok i found it but what if it needs to be in that folder?
[01:26] <ubotu> For Codecs try !codecs Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MplayerInstallHowto for installation tips.
[01:27] <LookTJ> i installed w32 codecs
[01:27] <LookTJ> http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf
[01:27] <Kream> it just seems bizarre... how do i generate the hi_IN.utf8 locale ?
[01:27] <THX-1138> Kream - I have to apologize for not knowing enough to help.
[01:27] <CCmonster> I have a Soundblaster Audigy...will ubuntu packages full support its capabilities?
[01:27] <LookTJ> add the repos then do sudo aptitude update
[01:28] <gaminggeek> CCmonster, you can always try
[01:28] <CCmonster> um , and by that you mean?
[01:28] <THX-1138> Kream - Did you see the link ubotu posted !fonts?
[01:28] <gaminggeek> oh nm
[01:28] <xenoNfluX> CCmonster, I dunno about fully... but the Audigy is among the best supported sound cards in Linux
[01:28] <CCmonster> lol
[01:28] <CCmonster> ok xeno
[01:28] <gaminggeek> What are the capabilities you want to harness?
[01:28] <CCmonster> i just want to be able to have all my 6.1 audio and such..
[01:28] <CCmonster> and be able to tweak setting and whatnot
[01:29] <xenoNfluX> Yeah, I think you should be able to do that
[01:29] <LookTJ> I have Sigmal
[01:29] <CCmonster> nothing serious..but some depth to the soundcard's support
[01:29] <LookTJ> soundcard
[01:29] <xenoNfluX> it does enable every port on the sound card, AFIAK
[01:29] <gaminggeek> CCmonster, my soundblaster live works fine so I assume so
[01:29] <CCmonster> ok geek
[01:30] <CCmonster> so xeno - what kind of effort will it take to get my MS bluetooh desktop up and going?
[01:30] <xenoNfluX> I've never tried any surround in games, but I do know that the surround ports are active on both of my Creative cards
[01:30] <THX-1138> brainstew - Are you still there?
[01:30] <LookTJ> CCmonster: output of ifconfig
[01:30] <CCmonster> not ness surround in games, but in movies, and music..
[01:30] <sebsebseb> How can I find out what my saved auto log in password is, for ICQ in  Gaim on Ubuntu?
[01:30] <xenoNfluX> bluetooth... good question... does it have a USB base station?
[01:30] <CCmonster> yes - it does have a usb dongle
[01:31] <xenoNfluX> then there's the possibility of it being plug & play
[01:31] <LookTJ> ccmonster: look in /media
[01:31] <CCmonster> um - im not in Ubuntu
[01:31] <LookTJ> see if it's mounted
[01:31] <j2daosh> who in here uses freenx?
[01:31] <CCmonster> im currently in Winxp
[01:31] <xenoNfluX> ah
[01:31] <LookTJ> :|
[01:31] <jrib> j2daosh: I have used it, but what is your real question?
[01:31] <wickedpuppy> its very dangerous to admit it here CCmonster
[01:32] <LookTJ> lol
[01:32] <Crewer> haha
[01:32] <xenoNfluX> lol
[01:32] <DennyCrane> gah, I marked cpufreqd for installation in synaptic and it tells me that to do this it needs to mark xubuntu-desktop for uninstall - seems a little excessive :-S
[01:32] <j2daosh> i could get into my system yesterday from work with it... today i cant
[01:32] <CCmonster> lol well i think im getting brownie point for admitting i want to swap over :)
[01:32] <LookTJ> I hate windows, my family not infected by ubuntu yet
[01:32] <wickedpuppy> no but we will give you girl guide cookies
[01:32] <LookTJ> but i am
[01:32] <gaminggeek> sebsebseb, you just click the auto logon check box in the accounts window
[01:32] <xenoNfluX> I'm on XP, too... but every other machine here is running Ubuntu Dapper :)
[01:32] <xenoNfluX> this XP machine is only active for music stuff
[01:32] <Sktfeelsdapper> How do you chmod something?
[01:32] <DennyCrane> man chmod
[01:32] <j2daosh> only thing i changed was adding an application called fail2ban (adds ips to iptable is they fail to log in with the right username password 3 times) but i dont see how that application would affect freenx
[01:32] <CCmonster> why music stuff?
[01:32] <Sktfeelsdapper> !chmod
[01:32] <sebsebseb> gaminggeek:  it is on auto log in.  however I do not remember what password I put and I want to find out
[01:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chmod - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:33] <Paddy_EIRE> mourning
[01:33] <Crewer> xenoNfluX, are your machines running server version?
[01:33] <eXistenZ> Sktfeelsdapper, man chmod
[01:33] <j2daosh> so what do i need to check...
[01:33] <xenoNfluX> Crewer, one of my machines is
[01:33] <DennyCrane> Sktfeelsdapper: chmod <options> <file/dir>
[01:33] <jrib> ubotu: tell Sktfeelsdapper about permissions
[01:33] <gaminggeek> sebsebseb, ah edit the account and click remember password
[01:33] <LookTJ> xeno: music as in .wmv codecs?
[01:33] <wickedpuppy> Sktfeelsdapper, you know about rwx permissions right ? if not i strongly suggest you take a look at them first
[01:33] <xenoNfluX> CCmonster, Linux just isnt there for music production
[01:33] <THX-1138> !restrictedformats
[01:33] <sebsebseb> gaminggeek:  yes it is on auto log in and it remembers the password. and now I  want to find out what password it has

[01:33] <xenoNfluX> LookTJ, nope... Reason 3.0 and Pro Tools
[01:33] <Crewer> xenoNfluX, God experians? ( my english is really bad. sorry)
[01:33] <malice> When the Final version comes out for Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft)  will I just get a icon that pops up and telling me that there are upgrades for the system or will I have to do all this manually?
[01:33] <CCmonster> wasnt sure if you ment production..or just listening..
[01:34] <gaminggeek> sebsebseb, why?
[01:34] <THX-1138> wma/v is a challenge
[01:34] <LookTJ> server version doesn't come with x by default
[01:34] <xenoNfluX> Crewer, no, I'm no expert in Ubuntu server... I might be able to help on some things, but its doubtful :P
[01:34] <LookTJ> i believe
[01:34] <edgy> malice: isn't there such a icon now in dapper?
[01:34] <CCmonster> so the various tv show torrents that come in Xvid, Divx, etc..will those be troublesome to view
[01:34] <Sktfeelsdapper> well yesterday somebody told me it was chmod skt -R <files>
[01:34] <Paddy_EIRE> malice: I think you have to do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade or something like that
[01:34] <Crewer> xenoNfluX, hehe. ok. I run server version at 11 servers. 5.04 thoug.
[01:34] <Paddy_EIRE> malice kinda like windows 2000 to xp
[01:35] <sebsebseb> gaminggeek:  ,because rather soon I am going to format Ubuntu/Kubuntu ,because it's slightly fucked up. in fact probably a bit more than slighty fucked up.  yeah after upgrading from Breezy to Dapper since it fucked up on me. ,but then I got working, b ut wiht some problems.  and loads of programs here I won't use so on.
[01:35] <xenoNfluX> Crewer, hehe... I'm learning :)
[01:35] <malice> well I was told I had to:Change every occurrence of the word 'dapper' to 'edgy', then
[01:35] <Crewer> xenoNfluX, good. I like the system very god.
[01:35] <Crewer> good*
[01:35] <Paddy_EIRE> malice: edgy would be the next version os the os and not just an upgrade
[01:35] <malice> sudo apt-get update
[01:35] <malice> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:35] <LookTJ> i never gotton used to ubuntu server
[01:35] <Sktfeelsdapper> wait maybe it was chown
[01:35] <Paddy_EIRE> *update
[01:35] <CCmonster> Um. the only Ubuntu version i saw was 6.06 LTS
[01:35] <Sktfeelsdapper> !chown
[01:35] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via applications -> accessories -> terminal (gnome) or kmenu -> system -> konsole (kde). Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[01:35] <LookTJ> tried in vmware
[01:35] <LookTJ> but deleted it
[01:35] <xenoNfluX> CCmonster, you could use Automatix to install your A/V codecs, as well as other things
[01:35] <gaminggeek> sebsebseb, just backup .gaim
[01:35] <LookTJ> don
[01:35] <LookTJ> don't
[01:36] <edgy> malice: ah you want to upgrade between different versions, do windows do such a thing? ;)
[01:36] <CCmonster> is there a easy way to upgrade to the newest (is there a newer vers avail?)
[01:36] <LookTJ> don't use automatrix
[01:36] <LookTJ> :|
[01:36] <CCmonster> what should i use?
[01:36] <xenoNfluX> lol
[01:36] <toodles> Hi everyone. Would someone be able to point me in the right direction? I'm using the network-manager on my (dell inspiron 640m) laptop, and have an IPW3945 wireless card. Everything works fine with the built in network applet, but nm-applet won't detect my wireless card. I've googled and can't find anyone with similar problems. Any ideas on where I could get help on this?
[01:36] <sebsebseb> gaminggeek:  In Breezy to find out my ICQ password, I actsaully found a Windos program for retrieving passwords from Gaim.  I put it in Wine and it worked to get it from Linux Gaim :)
[01:36] <malice> ok do you guys think a newbie should install this beta then?
[01:36] <xenoNfluX> why not LookTJ? just curous
[01:36] <edgy> malice: no
[01:36] <Paddy_EIRE> malice: yes you have to change "dapper" to "edgy" in the sources list....although im not entirely sure how this works
[01:36] <malice> ok just wait till the final version then
[01:36] <LookTJ> It a software to destroy your system
[01:36] <CCmonster> will i be able to listen to all the mp3s i have storred on my comp currently..on another drive however
[01:37] <xenoNfluX> lol
[01:37] <xenoNfluX> I've never had any problems with Automatix
[01:37] <Paddy_EIRE> malice: If I where you I'd stick with dapper
[01:37] <LookTJ> some people had
[01:37] <gaminggeek> sebsebseb, in .gaim/accounts.xml it has all the passwords
[01:37] <Crewer> CCmonster, you can mount other drives
[01:37] <keebler> Does the current WGT111T work under Ubuntu and ndiswrapper?
[01:37] <CCmonster> hm, will i have probs viewing my windows drives?
[01:37] <malice> Paddy_EIRE: will there be a new dapper version also or is it all going to edgy?
[01:37] <THX-1138> gaminggeek - in plaintext? - geez
[01:37] <keebler> WG111T
[01:37] <CCmonster> and listening to my mp3s?
[01:37] <LookTJ> ccmonster you can add the w32 codecs

[01:37] <gaminggeek> yep :D
[01:37] <sysuser> hi, I have issues with stability with dapper drake 2.6.15-27 and ibm device, could anyone help?

[01:40] <LookTJ> i mean iwconfig
[01:40] <zzyber> THX-1138: did you reinstall?
[01:40] <sysuser> hey, does anybody know why may dapper randomly restart?
[01:40] <m0dY> is there a way to know how a .deb pkg was built ? like the configuration build parameters and so..
[01:40] <CCmonster> when i dbl click the drive in windows i get the Open CD Browser
[01:40] <THX-1138> zzyber - i enbled a shared folder on this machine and my entire windows network vanished.

[01:42] <CCmonster> Ubuntu, Kubuntu...
[01:42] <Crewer> 6.04, kubuntu maby?
[01:42] <THX-1138> samba docs assume too much for my taste. - I am very new to linux
[01:42] <CCmonster> which gui i guess is preferred by most
[01:42] <LookTJ> and xubuntu
[01:42] <Crewer> CCmonster, www.google.com "standard kubuntu desktop"
[01:42] <Crewer> f.eks
[01:42] <CCmonster> ive seen it..
[01:42] <LookTJ> lol
[01:42] <Crewer> Did you like it then? :-P
[01:42] <LookTJ> i perfer gnome
[01:42] <CCmonster> ive seen kubuntu, and ubuntu, and xubuntu desktops
[01:43] <CCmonster> but its not jus looks
[01:43] <LookTJ> i seen kde
[01:43] <CCmonster> i imagine the apps that work with them have some bearing on the decision
[01:43] <LookTJ> too much junks
[01:43] <LookTJ> in kde
[01:43] <Crewer> KDE it's just like.. *badword* windows
[01:43] <zzyber> Anyone else maybe!!! I cant login to my ubuntu box!!!
[01:44] <gaminggeek> zzyber, why?
[01:44] <CCmonster> um. where is the live cd available
[01:44] <THX-1138> zzyber - Are you logging in across a network?
[01:44] <CCmonster> its not on the download page of ubuntu
[01:44] <Crewer> !livecd
[01:44] <ubotu> Ubuntu Dapper 'Desktop' CD contains a Live CD (Ubuntu that runs straight off the CD and RAM) with an install option. Breezy's Live CD contained no install.
[01:44] <zzyber> gaminggeek: i dont know, i have playing around with samba, installed winbind and then removed winbind and i got this problems
[01:44] <Jerub> I'm thinking about installing ubuntu on my mac, but I'm wondering if I should get the CD or the DVD iso? what's the difference?
[01:45] <Crewer> Jerub, dvd is a faster format, i thing
[01:45] <CCmonster> ok
[01:45] <Jerub> it's also 5 times as big. :p
[01:45] <CCmonster> i launched the Browser on the Ubuntu desktop cd
[01:45] <LookTJ> linux-swap is based on RAM right?
[01:45] <Crewer> LookTJ, yes
[01:45] <THX-1138> Jerub - The DVD loads faster and has three methods of install text, OEM and live CD.
[01:45] <gaminggeek> zzyber, hmm odd what is the problem?
[01:46] <Jerub> THX-1138: thanks :)
[01:46] <zzyber> gaminggeek: i did use my samba server as domain controller and tried to have my ubuntu to login thru it, then i uninstalled everything and i got this problem
[01:46] <CCmonster> so i can boot from this cd to run ubuntu withoud doing anything
[01:46] <CCmonster> to my system?
[01:46] <zzyber> gaminggeek: i get (pam_unix) auth could not identify password for [andreb]  in my auth log
[01:46] <gaminggeek> hmm sounds nasty
[01:46] <B1zz> eh
[01:46] <B1zz> repos down?
[01:46] <zzyber> gaminggeek: i also get  Authentication information cannot be recovered
[01:46] <gaminggeek> is that when you try loginto gdm?

[01:48] <zzyber> gaminggeek: im afraid to restart the machine
[01:49] <m0dY> how to add additional mirrors to sources.list? i don't remember the pkg doing so
[01:49] <CCmonster> live cd
[01:49] <Crewer> I have 4 users that must start a program when the server start over.
[01:49] <rixth_> OK. I have a RAID1 array from a previous install. How can I get it up and running again (without losing data). I have the mdadm.conf file from the original system.
[01:49] <LookTJ> lol zzyber
[01:49] <gaminggeek> zzyber, if you can make a new account
[01:49] <zzyber> gaminggeek: do you user dapper?
[01:49] <Crewer> m0dY, nano /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[01:49] <gaminggeek> then just make a new account that can sudo and copy your stuff over and use that account
[01:49] <m0dY> Crewer: nop
[01:49] <gaminggeek> zzyber, yes
[01:50] <xuburman> hi

[01:51] <ubotu> lamp is Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

[01:51] <zzyber> gaminggeek: if you could send me the ones starting with commmon only it would maybe help me
[01:51] <gaminggeek> zzyber, wouldnt it be easyer to copy it out of the livecd?
[01:51] <zzyber> gaminggeek: you are right, i will check it
[01:51] <Crewer> THX-1138, My servers are running counter-strike server. i got user1, user2, user3 and user4. Each of those users is gonna start the prosess in /home/userX/hlds/start-warserver
[01:51] <Crewer> as in ./start-warserver when im logged in
[01:53] <Crewer> Got a solution for that? :-)
[01:53] <Paddy_EIRE> does anyone know the name and prot nuber of anygood binary news server... possibly supports posting

[01:56] <LookTJ> welcome back
[01:56] <LookTJ> did you upgrade?
[01:57] <ovy> is there a url or something to install the new version? I have to do 2 or 3 upgrades lo9l
[01:57] <ovy> just like it was in the 5.04
[01:57] <LookTJ> ubuntuforums.org support is better than irc imo
[01:57] <Crewer> THX-1138, I have an answer now. But i have to check it out first. ;-)
[01:58] <gaminggeek> zzyber, any luck?
[01:58] <ovy> I mean without a cd
[01:58] <LookTJ> do sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[01:58] <ovy> I searched in the last 30 min and found nothing
[01:58] <LookTJ> do what i just said ^^
[01:58] <zzyber> gaminggeek: i cant find my live cd and i only have 2Mbit so i will try to solve it another way.
[01:59] <gaminggeek> heh only
[01:59] <B1zz> i think some repos were down
[01:59] <B1zz> thats why
[01:59] <B1zz> i think they are back up
[01:59] <THX-1138> ovy - Grab a new iso. - Upgrades haven't always gone smoothly. - often some missing meta packages from an application nstall - ubuntu-desktop is pretty coomon to be awol.
[01:59] <THX-1138> Thanks Crewer. :)
[02:00] <LookTJ> or do slow burning of the cd
[02:00] <THX-1138> Good Morning Hobbsee.

[02:02] <zzyber> gaminggeek: i finally found the problem............wow, 4 hours work for this!!!!!
[02:02] <gaminggeek> lol what was wrong?
[02:02] <dragonfire1> gm
[02:02] <lostboyz> i installed the ati radeon driver packages and the driver works but now when i exit from ubuntu i do not go back to gdm i just get a black screen any suggestions?
[02:02] <ovy> but first does ubuntu work just with 128 RAM ?to know wether or not to try again
[02:03] <zzyber> gaminggeek: in my file /etc/pam.d/common-auth i had a parameter saying use_first_pass
[02:03] <THX-1138> zzyber - Okay, with the answer to this you might start a consulting service. It's asked more than once here. - kinda wish you would share the answer.
[02:03] <mAIJK> How do I cut out the time from the date echo? (cgi script)
[02:03] <lostboyz> also there are no longer and virtual consoles
[02:03] <LookTJ> ovy: yea

[02:03] <gaminggeek> zzyber, ok kay
[02:03] <gaminggeek> interesting
[02:04] <THX-1138> zzyber - How did you edit it to work?
[02:04] <zzyber> THX-1138: lol............sometimes fiddeling around with internet suggestions it can be crazy
[02:04] <zzyber> THX-1138: i removed the use_first_pass and saved the file
[02:05] <zzyber> THX-1138: correct syntax in that file is auth    required        pam_unix.so nullok_secure
[02:05] <THX-1138> zzyber - So use_first_pass became       " "
[02:05] <zzyber> have to reboot guys, thanks!
[02:05] <LookTJ> lol

[02:18] <Isaiah_the_Marty> how do i burn a  dvd?
[02:18] <LookTJ> k3b?
[02:18] <narma> habeeb, do 'apt-cache show recover'
[02:18] <Isaiah_the_Marty> all the things on the web i've found havent helped
[02:19] <habeeb> Crewer: well, "find -name *.mp3 | rm -rf *" didnt work :P
[02:19] <lostboyz> use k3b then go to the menus and it should say burn dvd image
[02:19] <lostboyz> if it is an image file like iso
[02:19] <Crewer> hehhe
[02:19] <THX-1138> Isaiah_the_Marty: That's no fun at all. - (dropping back five yards to pass.) switch to root to burn a dvd - ugh. - i actually said that. - ugly ugly ugly.
[02:19] <lostboyz> of not you can add the files and folders you want to burn
[02:19] <Ceddie> Hi folks.  I have some slightly technical questions about two things that worked under Slackware 7 but don't under Ubuntu.  OK if I ask now?
[02:19] <Isaiah_the_Marty> yea and i tried to save it in /media/cdrom and it didnt write
[02:20] <lostboyz> http://www.k3b.org/
[02:20] <Isaiah_the_Marty> and when i right click > write to disc  it tries to automatically save it in my home directory
[02:20] <lostboyz> oh no don't do that
[02:20] <LookTJ> anyone gonna watch mlb postseason here?
[02:20] <THX-1138> Isaiah_the_Marty: I am just curious. Who has ownership of the iso file?
[02:21] <Isaiah_the_Marty> i am
[02:21] <lostboyz> i installed the ati radeon driver packages and the driver works but now when i exit from ubuntu i do not go back to gdm i just get a black screen any suggestions?
[02:21] <mister_roboto> Ceddie: the protocol is to just ask, don't ask to ask :)
[02:21] <THX-1138> Isaiah_the_Marty: It wasn't created as root? - very unlikely but had to ask it.
[02:21] <Isaiah_the_Marty> its casablanca
[02:22] <Isaiah_the_Marty> i tried to burn it as my user
[02:22] <LookTJ> lostboyz: i have ati radeon 9000
[02:22] <lunaphyte_> i see the list of situations the alternate install cd is for, but what is it about the cd that makes it appropriate for those situations?
[02:22] <Isaiah_the_Marty> and it made an iso file in my home directory
[02:22] <Isaiah_the_Marty> then i tried to right click that and write it
[02:22] <Isaiah_the_Marty> and it just tries to save them in my home dir
[02:22] <lostboyz> LookTJ ok when i try to change virtual consoles or sign out i just get a black screen
[02:22] <LookTJ> and i didn't install the drivers cause ubuntu detects them
[02:22] <lostboyz> i can't get back to gdm to shutdown my computer properly
[02:22] <LookTJ> but i may have the solution
[02:23] <Ceddie> mister_roboto.  Thanks.  First is my old sound card (PCI CMI8330), : I've tried just loading the modules, but I probably need config first.  I used to use isapnp.conf.  Do I do the same in Ubuntu?
[02:23] <Isaiah_the_Marty> where should i save it too if i'm trying to burn a dvd THX-1138
[02:23] <SkinnyC> hey, i was testing out the Xubuntu LiveCD but i couldn't get the internet to work properly. The strange thing is: when i clicked on Samba, it said it would have to install. I thought it wouldn't work, but i pressed okay anyway... then it went and connected to the site, downloaded and installed :/
[02:24] <Ceddie> sorry, not PCI, ISA.  This is a pretty old machine (1998-9)
[02:24] <LookTJ> lostboyz: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:24] <THX-1138> Isaiah_the_Marty: To the root directory. - (i can see it comming.) - you won't be given perms for that directory?
[02:24] <lostboyz> yes i did that way before
[02:24] <lostboyz> but it gave me bad stuff
[02:25] <LookTJ> choose fglrx
[02:25] <mister_roboto> Ceddie: i take it your sound card is not working after install?
[02:25] <LookTJ> as video driver
[02:25] <OsKaRIN> buenas gente
[02:25] <LookTJ> k lostboyz?
[02:25] <OsKaRIN> algun programa bueno de grabacion
[02:25] <OsKaRIN> ?
[02:25] <Ceddie> mister: no, it didn't detect it
[02:25] <THX-1138> lostboyz - add "nozap" to your xorg.conf
[02:25] <lostboyz> i did that already
[02:25] <SkinnyC> i could get tbe net to work for about 30 seconds at a time by changing the DNS settings, but they wouldn't "stick" - they kept changing back to the original settings. Would i be more successful if i went ahead and installed?
[02:25] <lostboyz> where at
[02:25] <jrib> SkinnyC: if you try to visit 64.233.167.99 does it work?
[02:26] <THX-1138> lostboyz - "nozap" - will help next time.
[02:26] <LookTJ> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:26] <lostboyz> add nozap where
[02:26] <LookTJ> do that and choose fglrx
[02:26] <lostboyz> ok i did already do that there man
[02:26] <THX-1138> lostboyz - dhoose ati or fglrx
[02:26] <lostboyz> i manually edited it so that it is fglrx under devices
[02:26] <mister_roboto> Ceddie: whatever you used to do with slackware should work here too. did you try playing with the config already?
[02:26] <lostboyz> where do i add no zap
[02:26] <SkinnyC> jrib: i'll try that next time and see what happens
[02:27] <LookTJ> did you try ati?
[02:27] <lostboyz> no not yet but the page said i should not
[02:27] <lostboyz> and make sure that under the "Device" sections, the Driver is set to
[02:27] <lostboyz> Driver "fglrx" it says
[02:28] <jrib> SkinnyC: that's google's ip.  It was just to see if it was some kind of dns problem, but what you said already seems to suggest that.  I'm not sure how to fix dns problems though
[02:28] <LookTJ> where is the device section?
[02:28] <Ceddie> Well, it only showed up in the Device manager as various device names with @, but I will try to do what I needed to to get it going in Slackware.  Just thought things might have moved on since isapnp
[02:29] <lostboyz> it is in the xorg file
[02:29] <mafu> Does anyone by chance know the difference between tetex3 and Livetex2005? I want to use Kile, which depends on tetex3, and I have been using livetex until now, but the two systems seem to conflict, so I have to choose. Any help? :)
[02:29] <LookTJ> lostboyz: you have a dell computer don't you
[02:29] <lostboyz> i have hp with a dell monitor
[02:29] <Ceddie> 'showed' I say, because certain admin panels and the GNOME terminal stopped working after I installed Konsole.
[02:29] <LookTJ> I need one freaking hp printer
[02:30] <LookTJ> :D
[02:30] <THX-1138> lostboyz - i can't find the link.  :/
[02:30] <lostboyz> ok
[02:30] <lostboyz> to what?
[02:30] <LookTJ> lostboyz
[02:30] <lostboyz> yeah
[02:30] <lostboyz> what up
[02:30] <mister_roboto> Ceddie: sorry but i don't know much about it. might try later since nobody is responding
[02:30] <lostboyz> hp printers have problems at least mine
[02:30] <LookTJ> look here, http://google.com/linux

[02:30] <lostboyz> the 5940 model the paper jams all thetime
[02:30] <SkinnyC> Is there an approximate date for when Edgy Elf is going to be realeased (as in the more final one, not the beta)?
[02:31] <lostboyz> ok so what im a supposed to google
[02:31] <LookTJ> octcober 26th skinnyc
[02:31] <SkinnyC> i'm wondering whether to wait and install that or just with 6.06
[02:31] <SkinnyC> ah okay
[02:31] <Ceddie> mister: OK, thanks!  The other is even more technical to do with why Ubuntu misdetects the size of hda on an LX motherboard.   Later.
[02:31] <mister_roboto> Ceddie: installing konsole killed some of the gnome stuff?  hmmm  that definitely shouldn't have happened.  just an install with apt-get?
[02:31] <LookTJ> or octcober 25th
[02:31] <Ceddie> install with synaptic
[02:31] <mister_roboto> Ceddie: dapper?
[02:32] <root___> whats up people.... whrere can i find where applications start? its not in cron or inittab...
[02:32] <LookTJ> i hate lexmark
[02:32] <LookTJ> unfriendly to ubuntu
[02:32] <lostboyz> oh
[02:32] <Ceddie> I'm not sure if it was installing some KDS packages, but I thought it might be - The dialog box comes up but it's just white and grey.  E.g. for users & groups.
[02:32] <lostboyz> yes well cannon has good printers
[02:32] <Ceddie> KDE I meant
[02:32] <lostboyz> but i am not sure how friendly they are

[02:35] <lostboyz> with sudo shutdown -h now in a terminal
[02:35] <Ceddie> Actually I think it may more likely be something to do with the hard drive problem - if it's a regression/bug in the kernel drivers, where's the best place to ask?
[02:35] <lostboyz> would that have any effect on the virtual consoles or logging out to gdm in the  future?

[02:37] <osfameron> ie., disable the plugin
[02:37] <Arafangion> zyclop: But, you can generally firewall them, ie, have a router that only passes allowed packets (from certain MAC addys)

[02:38] <LookTJ> omg!!!
[02:38] <Ceddie> osfameron - there is a plugin to do exactly that - PDFs then open only in the viewer and there is no blank window
[02:38] <zyclop> arafangion: and where can i get more info on that topic?
[02:38] <Arafangion> zyclop: Basic firewall/router
[02:38] <osfameron> Ceddie: oh!  that's cool, url?  I thought it would just be a setting (stop using the useless plugin) but can't find it
[02:39] <Arafangion> zyclop: Then, you start to focus on filtering.
[02:39] <zyclop> Arafangion: thanks
[02:39] <Arafangion> zyclop: Then, you start playing around with, eg, iptables modules that allow various features, such as mac filtering.

[02:40] <Arafangion> LookTJ: Tell me when you have a distributed dict attack. Those are nasty.
[02:40] <KenSentMe> Where can i get some info on creating my own debs for Ubuntu?
[02:40] <Ceddie> osfameron - not sure if it's the same one I had in Windows, but https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/636/ looks useful
[02:40] <Arafangion> mbd: Sure, let me determine if it's a hardware issue.
[02:40] <THX-1138> zyclop - it's darn geeky. but, wait! theres more. - conntrack - lol
[02:40] <zyclop> Arafangion: yeah, I'll find out how that stuff works and then do what has to be done. thanks for your time
[02:40] <Arafangion> mbd: Is it an ati device?
[02:40] <mbd> Arafangion, yes, an 9800pro
[02:40] <Arafangion> mbd: Then you have a problem.
[02:41] <Arafangion> mbd: Best you can do is hope that it works.
[02:41] <Arafangion> mbd: Try the free version.
[02:41] <mbd> Arafangion, they ware working just the other day. but now they dont, xorg.conf the same
[02:41] <Arafangion> mbd: Try the non-free one in the repos.
[02:41] <Arafangion> mbd: Try the commercial ones from the ati website.
[02:41] <Arafangion> mbd: If you're very lucky, one of the three will work.
[02:41] <osfameron> Ceddie: thanks, looks useful!
[02:42] <mbd> Arafangion.. hmm.. its just so wierd, i have been using the fglrx for a month or something and the other day 3d acceleration just stopped working..
[02:42] <Arafangion> mbd: If you have any option, use NVidia.
[02:43] <LookTJ> Nvidia get better picture
[02:43] <THX-1138> nVidia <3 <3  - ati is just poinlessly more difficult.
[02:43] <LookTJ> too bad i got ati radeon 9000
[02:43] <Arafangion> mbd: I must admit, I have ati too, it just happens to work using the latest ati drivers from the website, but any others don't work, and I can't upgrade my kernel.
[02:43] <LookTJ> nvidia also more stable
[02:43] <mbd> well, bought it when i still was on windows..
[02:43] <Arafangion> mbd: But, mine's built into the laptop, so I don't have a choice.
[02:43] <THX-1138> yes, most laptops too. - doh
[02:44] <Arafangion> mbd: Even on windows, imho, nvidia is better.
[02:44] <mbd> and im a poor student so have not much choise
[02:44] <paines> hi
[02:44] <Arafangion> mbd: Could always sell it, and get a cheap nvidia.
[02:44] <LookTJ> arafangion: take the laptop apart
[02:44] <Arafangion> LookTJ: Haha. :)
[02:44] <mbd> true
[02:45] <LookTJ> I'm gonna do my laptop, and get rid of ati
[02:45] <LookTJ> hahaha

[02:59] <osama> firebird is a split from interbase 6
[02:59] <chemaja> macacorush, you lucky thing, you've got super-server AND classic-server packaged nicely for you ;P
[03:00] <THX-1138> Arlington - erm - If i were paid at all or paid what i was worth i would owe money. - very new to linux - does enthusiasm count for anything?
[03:00] <osama> firebird's evolution is now much faster than interbase
[03:00] <chemaja> i hates firebird dbs
[03:00] <chemaja> deal with em at work every day
[03:00] <osama> chemaja: why?
[03:00] <Arlington> THX-1138:  yeah! same situation for me.
[03:00] <doktoreas> hi to all!
[03:00] <osama> hi
[03:00] <chemaja> i more hates the specific versions we run with the specific os' we run
[03:01] <doktoreas> Anyone knows of guide for using a printer on Windows from Ubuntu=?
[03:01] <THX-1138> chemaja - Can you help him with his question?
[03:01] <chemaja> crashes... resource hogs that need reboots...
[03:01] <macacorush> a client worked with interbase for 10 years and now I need to re-do the application on php
[03:01] <chemaja> THX-1138, which question...
[03:01] <macacorush> redhat weighted so much... and ubuntu installed like a dream
[03:01] <osama> doktoreas: easy
[03:02] <lunaphyte_> i see the list of situations the alternate install cd is for, but what is it about the cd that makes it appropriate for those situations?
[03:02] <doktoreas> osama, how?
[03:02] <osama> System -> Administration -> Printers -> New printer
[03:02] <osama> Then Network Printer (Windows printer SMB)
[03:02] <BlueEagle> lunaphyte_: The graphical installer is a very new feature. That might be one of the reasons. It might also come down to space restrictions even.
[03:02] <THX-1138> doktores - only 2 simple tricks one, pick "windows printer" in the gui drop down menu two, don't select Detect lan printers
[03:03] <osama> select the computer name
[03:03] <osama> in host and printer
[03:03] <osama> then enter user/pass if required
[03:03] <THX-1138> chemaja - the question on databases?
[03:03] <osama> that's it
[03:03] <THX-1138> !printers

[03:06] <Parama> my login prompt at my console shows up before all the services have loaded

[03:06] <_Rappy_> if i edit /etc/hosts and type like:    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx example.com www.example.com   will i always be redirected to the server, or does this only work in a intranet?
[03:07] <osama> _Rappy_: the server's apache config probably has a set "ServerName" that redirects any domain names to the original
[03:08] <macacorush>  thanks for your help
[03:08] <macacorush> bye bye
[03:08] <_Rappy_> osama : thanks

[03:09] <JoshIRL> Is gtalk supported on ubuntu?
[03:09] <osama> gtalk is jabber
[03:09] <osama> and is supported by any jabber client
[03:09] <JoshIRL> I tried with gaim it doesn't work :(
[03:09] <BlueEagle> _rappy_: It will most likely direct you from that machine to that IP as hosts are usually searched before DNS. However the other machines on your intranet won't know about it (unless you're the dns for that net) so everyone else will get nowhere.
[03:09] <osama> JoshIRL it should
[03:09] <JoshIRL> Hmm
[03:09] <JoshIRL> Wonder what i did wrong :S

[03:13] <lunaphyte__> is the alternate install cd a server install or a desktop install?

[03:51] <_Rappy_> segfault : it's just a clean install... just installed it, been tourblesome from the beginning. Can it have something to do with running AMD46 on a Xeon processor?
[03:51] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, sounds like configure did not complete successfully
[03:51] <gwilma> Hello all. Does anyone know how to recover data from a floppy disk?

[03:54] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, here is ur prob checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool
[03:55] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, look for error in configure output
[03:55] <THX-1138> !\\\Dodi_71 - Ubotu has a link - the info is ambiguous and difficult. (at least i thought so.) I almost hate to refer you to it.
[03:55] <THX-1138> !samba
[03:55] <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
[03:56] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: what must I do about that, I have no idea what is required of me " XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool" <--I dont know what I must do to fix this
[03:56] <britt> anybody have a solution to my issue?
[03:56] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: install libxml-parser-perl
[03:56] <meson_ray> I'm back after attempting the install
[03:57] <Paddy_EIRE> jrib: nice one, can I do "sudo pt-get install libxml-parser-perl"
[03:57] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, install XML::Parser module for perl
[03:57] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: although, I think build-essential should pull that in
[03:57] <meson_ray> I have a couple of questions, does anyone have a few minutes?
[03:58] <jrib> Paddy_EIRE: yes, you can do that
[03:58] <segfault> _rappy_, server kernel i guess?
[03:58] <segfault> !ask > meson_ray
[03:58] <meson_ray> is there any way to choose ESSID automatically?
[03:58] <micael71> can i install a tar.gz file in my ubuntu
[03:58] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: jrib: thx guys
[03:58] <_rappy_> segfault : yeah. anyhows, must go. Will try to figure it out later
[03:58] <jrib> micael71: yes, but it is usually harder than just using the repositories.  What are you trying to install?
[03:58] <_rappy_> thanks segfault and THX-1138  :)
[03:59] <segfault> _rappy_, np good luck

[04:00] <britt> i have a wireless card in my notebook here, and i'm at school. I would like to know how to config my wifi card graphically to allow me to connect to the wireless
[04:00] <micael71> jrib no i dont think so
[04:00] <jrib> ubotu: tell micael71 about universe
[04:00] <micael71> jrib i am very new at this
[04:00] <Jas-Nix> hello all, usplash isn't working on my system, instead I just see system info, and not the normal init system info
[04:00] <britt> cant use gtkwifi, it says something about missing a gnome.applet or something
[04:00] <Jas-Nix> I am using edgy beta
[04:00] <jrib> micael71: after enabling universe, you can use apt-get (command line) or system > administration > synaptic (gui) to install the proftpd package
[04:00] <THX-1138> !repos  > micael71
[04:00] <meson_ray> britt:  I think I'm having a similar problem, can't connect
[04:01] <meson_ray> although my problem might me I was entering the essid wrong
[04:01] <shriphani> THX-1138, still no sound :(
[04:01] <micael71> thanks i am looking at it now
[04:01] <OsfinPowsmeron> any suggestions for getting EasyUbuntu to not crash when it's run?
[04:01] <britt> meson_ray: well I can connect at home
[04:02] <shriphani> sudo cat /dev/dsp prints a lot of question marks
[04:02] <meson_ray> hm... I am not having that luck
[04:02] <meson_ray> although the internet's rather weak here
[04:02] <OsfinPowsmeron> EasyUbuntu just opens a gksu which doesn't do anything, then hangs
[04:02] <britt> but here at school, there are several APs and I need to know graphically which one will work the best
[04:02] <meson_ray> gentoo connects perfectly fine
[04:02] <meson_ray> I'm willing to admit I put the ESSID in wrong, that might be why I couldn't connect
[04:03] <meson_ray> however, it won't connect manually either
[04:03] <britt> meson_ray: use any
[04:03] <meson_ray> eh, *automatically
[04:03] <britt> should get you on the first available ap
[04:03] <robertttt> does lilo die?
[04:03] <meson_ray> put 'any' in ESSID?
[04:03] <britt> yes
[04:03] <THX-1138> shriphani - could you ask your questuin again? not sure everyone saw it.
[04:03] <meson_ray> ah
[04:03] <meson_ray> okay, thanks
[04:03] <meson_ray> I'll try that
[04:03] <britt> tell me how you get a IP
[04:03] <meson_ray> and for my second question
[04:03] <britt> I couldnt ever get one
[04:03] <meson_ray> dhcp
[04:03] <britt> lol
[04:04] <meson_ray> were you asking someone else?
[04:04] <britt> no
[04:04] <britt> i thought you had it
[04:04] <hephaestus_> hi all..how can i set a autoreply for private messages on bitchx?
[04:04] <britt> anyway, try 'sudo ifup ethx' where x is the # of your wifi card
[04:04] <meson_ray> well, there usually is one until the router's reset (which it does on a weekly basis when It stops working)
[04:04] <britt> in my case, its eth1
[04:04] <meson_ray> yeah, I tried that
[04:04] <britt> and?
[04:04] <meson_ray> I didn't have 'any' in the ESSID though
[04:04] <britt> no IP?
[04:04] <britt> ah
[04:04] <meson_ray> no ip
[04:05] <krang> If I want to use a LiveCD to backup the filesystem on another machine, which util should I use? I can't apt-get dump, so I was wondering what other options there are.
[04:05] <meson_ray> it wouldn't connect at all
[04:05] <Dodi_71> is there any GUI interface to setup NFS
[04:05] <britt> oh and check your /etc/network/interfaces
[04:05] <meson_ray> it's weird that it's eth1 though, you think it'd be a wlan
[04:05] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: jrib: now im very confused http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25495/
[04:05] <Ascend> Hi there
[04:05] <meson_ray> there's only two external interfaces, eth0 and eth1
[04:05] <meson_ray> eth0 is wired
[04:05] <meson_ray> eth1 is the wireless
[04:05] <meson_ray> I'll give that a try next time
[04:06] <meson_ray> however, I actually had to format the partition
[04:06] <Ascend> Hi! I have a question to make. May I?
[04:06] <Arcad3> go ahead
[04:06] <meson_ray> I'm not a huge fan of the grub scripts.......
[04:07] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, GLIB - version >= 2.4.5... no
[04:07] <Ascend> Well, I have both wired and wireless Ethernet. However, wireless doesn't seem to work/detect any network.
[04:07] <Ascend> And I know that I am covered ;) Just the wireless doesn't seem to work
[04:07] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, Paddy_EIRE ubuntu uses glib 2.3.6
[04:07] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: I did "sudo apt-get install glib" and i got "Couldn't find package glib"
[04:08] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, pakg in ubuntu is libc6, to compile u need libc6-dev, but it is likely already installed just not new enough to compile this app
[04:08] <Dodi_71> is there any GUI interface to setup NFS:-D
[04:08] <segfault> Dodi_71, not that i know of
[04:09] <Ascend> No one can help me?
[04:09] <Ascend> :x
[04:09] <meson_ray> I've used grub to dual boot between gentoo/windows for several months now, and when I installed ubuntu as a third OS, windows decided not to boot from either ubuntu's grub or gentoo's grub
[04:09] <meson_ray> I had to split a 3 gig swap partition into logical 256 meg swap and 2.7 gig /
[04:09] <meson_ray> ascend, I'm having the same problem
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: so I probably wont be able to install this then
[04:09] <Dodi_71> at lease a place to read about NFS setup
[04:09] <Ascend> hmm
[04:09] <meson_ray> try putting 'any' in ESSID
[04:09] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, doubtful upgrading glib is a huge undertaking, u should not do it

[04:10] <meson_ray> me too
[04:10] <Arcad3> what software u use for wireless connection
[04:10] <meson_ray> what wireless card do you have?
[04:10] <Jas-Nix> can someone tell me what might be causing boot splash not to work on my system? I do have to add a Modeline to xorg.conf to get ubuntu to recognize my monitor
[04:10] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: do you think I might have more success converting the gimpshop rpm to deb
[04:10] <Ascend> 802.11b/g wireless LAN
[04:11] <meson_ray> what's the output of lspci?
[04:11] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, that is simple using alien, but if ur prog requires glibc >2.4 it is useless
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> ok
[04:11] <meson_ray> wait, hold on a second....
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> I wonder if there is an older version of gimpshop
[04:11] <meson_ray> eth1 WAS configured to accept any ESSID....

[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: just wondering I have a university version of Photoshop 7 here (all legal) is this simple to install in ubuntu using wine??? Im trying to stay on the free side of things here as no credit card and low funds are a problem
[04:14] <meson_ray> have you installed any sort of driver for it?
[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> Ascend: i need GLIB - version >= 2.4.
[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> Ascend: basically no
[04:14] <Ascend> can you just take out , via synaptic?
[04:14] <Paddy_EIRE> no
[04:14] <Ascend> and then compile the whole thing?

[04:15] <Ascend> Anyway, buy it a Guiness...perhaps he'll just forget about glib ;)
[04:15] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, it is worth a shot, i dont really know how well photoshop works with wine i have never tried
[04:15] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, u could also just use plain old gimp for graphics editing
[04:16] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: that was the point of gimpshop
[04:16] <segfault> Paddy_EIRE, gimp is in ubuntu, sudo apt-get install gimp
[04:17] <hephaestus_> hi all..how can i set a autoreply for private messages on bitchx?
[04:17] <Paddy_EIRE> segfault: my course exclusively uses photoshop, so Gimp doesnt translate out well with my learning materials, e.g. a simple exercise written for pshop is a whole undertaking as I have to "try" and use gimp

When doing a search and replace using regular expressions, in the replace portion how do I refer to match that was made in the search? say I don't want to replace one of the matches but rather keep it the same
[04:22] <RamiKassab> I'm new to regular expressions and am using jedit and really need help with this
[04:23] <segfault> RamiKassab, perl regexs?
[04:23] <RamiKassab> segfault: I'm actually using jedit

[04:24] <meson_ray> "unsupported package?"
[04:24] <j2daosh> lol
[04:24] <j2daosh> yeah thats why im kinda at a loss for words too
[04:24] <j2daosh> i have added repos off easysource though so that could be it
[04:24] <anto9us> j2daosh, yes, you have seveas mirrors in your repository list
[04:24] <Farhad> How I can format a drive, for example hda7
[04:24] <j2daosh> it might not be in the main repos... but instead multi/uni/and backports
[04:25] <Farhad> please help me
[04:25] <j2daosh> Farhad: use gparted
[04:25] <Farhad> j2daosh, in terminal
[04:25] <j2daosh> man format
[04:26] <j2daosh> haven't had to format anything yet....
[04:26] <giftnudel> Farhad: man mkfs
[04:26] <meson_ray> wait, wait, how is a package that comes with an OS 'unsupported'?
[04:26] <j2daosh> meson_ray: it doesn"come" with it
[04:26] <anto9us> Farhad, System | Administration | Disks
[04:27] <j2daosh> i added a repo (seveas's to be exact)
[04:27] <j2daosh> since its not a main repo its unsupported
[04:27] <meson_ray> yeah, but they said it was unsupported before you mentioned that
[04:27] <j2daosh> because they know its not in the "main" repo
[04:27] <meson_ray> oh, ok
[04:28] <meson_ray> well, one question down, two to go

[04:29] <Dimensions> thanks quiet
[04:29] <giftnudel> Dimensions: try with synaptic -> search php or apt-cache search php
[04:30] <giftnudel> Dimensions: that will help in the future
[04:30] <giftnudel> micael71: how did you install it?
[04:30] <Dimensions> giftnudel:  i guess its downloadin with apt-get
[04:30] <micael71> giftnudel i did install it in the installer
[04:31] <giftnudel> Dimensions: yes, but with my two commands, you may find out what the name of the package is
[04:31] <meson_ray> does anyone know how to boot windows from grub after adding a logical/extended partition?
[04:31] <micael71> giftnudel i can find it on my hd but i dont know what file to start it with
[04:31] <earthian> hello
[04:32] <earthian> who is good here with networking?
[04:32] <earthian> i have 3 computers connected to my ubuntu
[04:32] <earthian> erm
[04:32] <quiet> earthian, ask your question.
[04:32] <giftnudel> micael71: dpkg -L <package-name> will you can find all files installed by this package, m
[04:32] <earthian> 2 computers
[04:32] <Pensa`MIA> my grub menu is loaded with older kernels, can I just remove the older kernels from the adept package manager?
[04:32] <giftnudel> micael71: maybe that will help
[04:32] <earthian> both computers are in different subnet
[04:32] <earthian> how could i connect them together?
[04:32] <quiet> vlan
[04:32] <crimeboy> GaiaX11: yep
[04:33] <earthian> so they would not only see each other but could share files even
[04:33] <quiet> or NAT
[04:33] <earthian> i use DHCP
[04:33] <earthian> to assign them IPs, dns ans stuff
[04:33] <quiet> your DHCP is handing outdifferent subnet addresses?
[04:33] <giftnudel> earthian: you need two network cards (or virtual cards, like quiet suggests)
[04:33] <Hohlraum> anyone else seeing the update software crash X ?
[04:33] <earthian> i have 3 cards
[04:33] <earthian> well.. my ubuntu sees and shares files with both computers there
[04:34] <GaiaX11> crimeboy: this is a good place to learn many new things. Isn't it?
[04:34] <earthian> just those computers does not talk to each other
[04:34] <quiet> earthian, is there a reason why you have 3 computers with different subnets?
[04:34] <earthian> maybe not?
[04:34] <quiet> heh..
[04:35] <earthian> well.. i am a noob
[04:35] <meson_ray> okay, is there an FAQ somewhere about booting to windows when it decides it doesn't want to boot?
[04:35] <quiet> if this is just your home... you should be using something like.. 192.168.100 - 192.168.1.103
[04:35] <crimeboy> GaiaX11: yep, ;] 
[04:35] <earthian> i just plugged in my LAN cables and assigned different IPs and subments to those somputers
[04:35] <davvs> is there any way i can tell ubuntu or gnome to start a new application via ssh? (not start it directly in the ssh-window)
[04:35] <earthian> computers
[04:35] <quiet> why did you assing different subnets?
[04:35] <giftnudel> davvs: ssh -c might du it?
[04:35] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: Do you have dual boot?
[04:35] <earthian> good question :D
[04:35] <matt8806suomi> anyone know how to reset username and password??
[04:35] <earthian> hm
[04:35] <quiet> earthian, what are they?
[04:35] <giftnudel> du = do
[04:36] <GaiaX11> Ubuntu and Windows box?
[04:36] <earthian> on one of the lan cards there is a dsl modem connected
[04:36] <quiet> 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.1.1?
[04:36] <giftnudel> matt8806suomi: why?
[04:36] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: Ubuntu and Windows box?
[04:36] <davvs> oh thanks giftnudel, ill try that
[04:36] <earthian> i have 10.0.0.0 192.168.0.0 192.168.12.0 <-- those are the nets
[04:36] <meson_ray> Ubuntu, Gentoo and Windows box
[04:36] <quiet> good god.
[04:36] <giftnudel> matt8806suomi: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[04:36] <meson_ray> it's been booting fine from gentoo for forever
[04:36] <earthian> and subnets: 255.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 255.255.0.0
[04:36] <matt8806suomi> my brothers pc: he can't remember his password
[04:37] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: and now windows do not come up. Is it?
[04:37] <earthian> problem is that two of these cards get random names assigned at the boot time
[04:37] <meson_ray> I installed ubuntu today, and I had to kill a swap partition
[04:37] <gh0st> how can i create a symlink?
[04:37] <quiet> earthian, that's silly...  use 192.168.1.1/254 with 255.255.255.0
[04:37] <earthian> one is vmnet1 card...
[04:37] <earthian> ok
[04:37] <earthian> will try
[04:37] <meson_ray> it was a 3 gig swap partition, I was going to format it differently but never got around to it
[04:38] <meson_ray> but I had 4 primary partitions, so I had to make an extended partition
[04:38] <matt8806suomi> thanks giftnudel
[04:38] <earthian> hm
[04:38] <quiet> i'm very glad that Ubuntu *just works*.
[04:38] <meson_ray> 256 meg swap (don't know why I need it, I've used swap maybe once ever) and the rest several gigs
[04:38] <meson_ray> actually, ubuntu so far hasn't worked ^__^
[04:38] <andy101> anyone know how i can associate a protocol in Firefox with a particular application, e.g. make irc://freenode.org start GAIM ?
[04:38] <gh0st> hello, ubuntu detected my soundblaster but i get no sound :-(, volume mixer is not muted
[04:39] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: have you tried doing it through gparted?
[04:39] <Jas-Nix> or aptitude <some option> <list of packages> ?
[04:39] <meson_ray> I did it through whatever the ubuntu install uses
[04:39] <Jas-Nix> can i just do something like apt-cache < some option> <list of packages>
[04:39] <kothz> Anyone have any g-rated thoughts on using enlightenment?
[04:39] <Jas-Nix> to see what whether a list of packages is installed ?
[04:39] <quiet> kothz, 16 or 17?
[04:39] <quiet> kothz, 17 = horribly broken.
[04:40] <quiet> kothz, 16 = nice, once you learn how to actually use it.
[04:40] <giftnudel> davvs: ssh root@pc -c "shutdown -h now" will shut down the pc
[04:40] <kothz> whichever one is synapticked :)
[04:40] <davvs> aha ok thanks
[04:40] <meson_ray> what does the ubuntu installer use for partitioning?
[04:40] <giftnudel> meson_ray: gparted
[04:40] <micael71> giftnudel i did get a lot of files on a page but i cant find the file to start the program with can i send the file to you
[04:40] <kothz> it was a passing urge :) in the interest of self-preservation i think I'll pass on the enlightenment :0
[04:40] <meson_ray> then yes, I have tried gparted
[04:40] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: Try system recue CD. There are lots of tools in there I think will help you in this matter. Do you know it?
[04:40] <giftnudel> micael71: tell me the program you installed
[04:40] <quiet> kothz, it's probably for the best.
[04:41] <quiet> kothz, if you want to try minimal.. openbox is very nice...
[04:41] <meson_ray> eh... well, it worked when I axed the partition and made it back into a 3 gig swap
[04:41] <giftnudel> meson_ray: try cfdisk /dev/device
[04:41] <micael71> giftnudel proftpd
[04:41] <DrBanzai> Anybody in here ever used the cluster option of dvd::rip??
[04:41] <meson_ray> it's not a problem with the partitioning though
[04:42] <meson_ray> the partitioning is fine, I think
[04:42] <meson_ray> gentoo booted fine
[04:42] <meson_ray> ubuntu booted fine (networking didn't work though)
[04:42] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[04:42] <meson_ray> well no, I'm in windows now
[04:42] <giftnudel> micael71: you probably need to start it with sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start or something similar
[04:42] <meson_ray> I'll be using windows until skype gets webcam for linux
[04:42] <meson_ray> *not all the time
[04:43] <brush01uk> Hi gh0st, please note I am a new user to ubuntu & linux the last few weeks, to get my sound & vidio working (I used Easyubuntu Program), Barry
[04:43] <micael71> giftnudel thanks i will try
[04:43] <meson_ray> it's not grub either though
[04:43] <meson_ray> because I can get into the microsoft boot loader
[04:43] <Jan-pp> I have big trouble with my nx. the machine does not have a screen, I access it over network only. if I connect with nx, I do get a fluxbox, but when I try to start an app, nothing happens. can anyone help me?
[04:43] <quiet> EasyUbuntu is not good..
[04:43] <quiet> although shuttleworth seems to like it...
[04:43] <quiet> odd.
[04:43] <giftnudel> meson_ray: so what is your problem again?
[04:43] <meson_ray> when I have an extended partition, windows bootloader will come up, but windows will not boot
[04:44] <xenoNfluX> Windows needs to be on a primary partition
[04:44] <xenoNfluX> and the first partition on the disk
[04:44] <giftnudel> xenoNfluX: are you sure about that?
[04:44] <meson_ray> it is on primary
[04:44] <meson_ray> and it's not the first partition
[04:44] <meson_ray> and I'm using it
[04:44] <meson_ray> that's why I needed the windows bootloader
[04:44] <meson_ray> it can load windows frm not the first partition
[04:45] <sproingie> windows always uses its bootloader
[04:45] <meson_ray> the problem is, when the extended partition is there, the windows bootloader won't load it on the partition It was on before, or the partition right after it
[04:45] <meson_ray> I have the windows bootloader set up so I can choose from three partition values
[04:45] <matt8806suomi> can anyone help with drivers for the "Telewell TW-EA200 ADSL modem"
[04:45] <vmw> hi. which linux distro has the best built-in support for closed source (mp3, flash etc.)?
[04:45] <brush01uk> Hi quiet, as new user then whyis Easyubunyu no good ?
[04:45] <meson_ray> I think I tried this before and I couldn't get it working, hence the 3 gig swap partition
[04:46] <sproingie> vmw: linspire
[04:46] <giftnudel> vmw: ubuntu has a pretty decent support for it
[04:46] <matt8806suomi> 3gig swap is stupid
[04:46] <sproingie> vmw: keep in mind that closed source has no support for you.  tweak anything and you're on your own
[04:46] <meson_ray> that's right
[04:46] <meson_ray> especailly because it's NEVER used
[04:46] <xenoNfluX> well, as far as I know, the Windows install can be on any partition, but the Windows bootloader needs to be on the first partition
[04:46] <giftnudel> vmw: it's not difficult to install all that https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[04:46] <meson_ray> but it didn't like the extended partition
[04:46] <matt8806suomi> 512ram = 512 swap
[04:47] <meson_ray> 1024 ram
[04:47] <xenoNfluX> general rule for swap is to make it 1.5x your system RAM
[04:47] <giftnudel> matt8806suomi: a little more is better if you want to suspend to disk
[04:47] <sproingie> that general rule is old and busted
[04:47] <sproingie> new rule, allocate as much swap as you need
[04:47] <meson_ray> you don't need to tell me that a 3 gig swap partition is stupid
[04:47] <meson_ray> I know that
[04:47] <Jan-pp> I have big trouble with my nx. the machine does not have a screen, I access it over network only. if I connect with nx, I do get a fluxbox, but when I try to start an app, nothing happens. can anyone help me?
[04:48] <xenoNfluX> sproingie, that's why its a general rule and not an absolute rule
[04:48] <giftnudel> meson_ray: have you tried installing grub somewhere else? (hd0,0)
[04:48] <bewat3r> how can i install a .bin file?
[04:48] <meson_ray> I made it for swapping files between windows and linux
[04:48] <meson_ray> only I never actually needed it that way, so I left it as swap
[04:48] <giftnudel> bewat3r: sh file.bin
[04:48] <giftnudel> bewat3r: or ./file.bin
[04:48] <meson_ray> maybe my fstab would help?
[04:48] <bewat3r> ah k thx
[04:49] <sproingie> xenoNfluX: there's no reasoning behind it though.  you need as much swap as you're going to use before you run out.  performance has nothing to do with it anymore, hasn't for years
[04:49] <matt8806suomi> yeah i know that, 512ram~512swap+10%
[04:49] <giftnudel> meson_ray: i want: fdisk -l /dev/device, C:/"somethinglikeboot.ini*, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:49] <meson_ray> gah, gaim      /dev/hda1      /boot
[04:49] <meson_ray> /dev/hda2        swap
[04:49] <meson_ray> /dev/hda3         /mnt/win_c
[04:49] <meson_ray> /dev/hda4       / (gentoo)
[04:50] <meson_ray> ubuntu was where the swap is
[04:50] <giftnudel> meson_ray: put in on the pasebin
[04:50] <meson_ray> eh
[04:50] <giftnudel> meson_ray: all at once, so that I can have a look at it
[04:50] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: Install lilo in a /boot partion and use with GAG. I think it will fix the problem
[04:50] <meson_ray> I'm using gaim, it did that automatically
[04:50] <Starker> hi. how can I acces my files i.e Mp3's and images which are actually on another partition of fat32..
[04:50] <giftnudel> meson_ray: hehe
[04:51] <giftnudel> don't use lilo, it can probably all be done with grub
[04:51] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: GAG is in the System Rescue CD
[04:51] <giftnudel> Starker: are there some folders in /media
[04:51] <meson_ray> I've tried lilo on this computer and it's never successfully booted windows
[04:51] <meson_ray> the windows system rescue CD?
[04:51] <giftnudel> meson_ray: I still think it's possible to make that work
[04:51] <matgates> Anyone know if checkinstall can handle scons built projects?
[04:51] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: here will not use ligo he will use gag
[04:51] <meson_ray> let me check the options
[04:52] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: No. Linux system rescue CD
[04:52] <matt8806suomi> can anyone help with drivers for the "Telewell TW-EA200 ADSL modem"
[04:52] <giftnudel> GaiaX11: I don't trust "foreign" boot loaders
[04:52] <meson_ray> ok
[04:52] <meson_ray> I'll keep that in mind
[04:52] <meson_ray> oh, btw, do I NEED swap?
[04:52] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: GAG is the best boot loader
[04:52] <meson_ray> as far as I can see I've only seen it used once
[04:52] <giftnudel> meson_ray: with 1 GB of ram, probably not, but it doesn't hurt to have one
[04:52] <Starker> Oh I gotta check that I am currently on windows have to reeboot to see this.. anyways can U guys help me finding something equalent to Windows explorer sort of program for Ubuntu
[04:53] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: Have you tried it? Before you say that you do not trust?
[04:53] <meson_ray> how do you get it to not do newlines?
[04:53] <giftnudel> GaiaX11: of course not, i don't trust it ;)
[04:53] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: I have the two in my Machine. And works greatly
[04:54] <meson_ray> /dev/hda1      /boot                                  /dev/hda2        swap                                  /dev/hda3         /mnt/win_c                                  /dev/hda4       / (gentoo home)
[04:54] <meson_ray> that didn't work as well as I thought it would
[04:54] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: Prejudice does not help researches and curious like me.
[04:54] <mono78> i have accidentaly removed some fundamental repositories from repository list in system --> amministration -- > software preference can someone send me the original configuration file for that applications? so i can restore the original repositories
[04:54] <giftnudel> GaiaX11: I have not needed another bootloader, but I usually dont suggest to install one where I don't know anything about
[04:55] <meson_ray> let me get back to you on these: fdisk -l /dev/device, C:/"somethinglikeboot.ini*, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:55] <meson_ray> the fstab is about all I can do for the fdisk
[04:56] <giftnudel> meson_ray: why?
[04:56] <meson_ray> /boot is about 32M, swap is 3 gig, windows is 45 gig, and linux is 45 gig
[04:56] <meson_ray> I'm in windows >_<
[04:56] <giftnudel> oh, well
[04:56] <ucordes> meson_ray: why god, why
[04:56] <meson_ray> skype ofr linux doesn't have video yet
[04:56] <giftnudel>  /boot is a gentoo disease ....
[04:56] <Flight> hi mono
[04:56] <ucordes> how can i set my flashdisk to mount with rw ?
[04:56] <giftnudel> meson_ray: I had it once too ;)
[04:56] <meson_ray> well, I still have it
[04:57] <meson_ray> I *could* get rid of it
[04:57] <meson_ray> but I'd rather not
[04:57] <matt8806suomi> need help with password resetting
[04:57] <Starker> Do i have to install nautilus seperatley??? I have installed ubuntu andhavent seen it ..I hope thats the program equalent to windows explorer
[04:57] <mono78> hi guys
[04:57] <Flight> mono
[04:57] <mono78> tell me
[04:57] <Flight> mono /join #monovale
[04:57] <meson_ray> although it might help the whole thing
[04:57] <mono78> can u help me?
[04:57] <Flight> mono /join #monovale
[04:58] <Dimensions> hi i just downloaded apache and php but donnno where it is i downloaded it with apt-get install php5
[04:58] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: So this is about your lack of knowledge and prejudice ando not because GAG is not good. Go there ande read about. Install it. Test it and them. Talk about it. And GAG will not mess up your grub or whatever. I use grub as a default boot loader in my machine. But if it fails I have another way of starting my OS.
[04:58] <meson_ray> eh... ext2 from xp?
[04:58] <xander> hi all
[04:58] <xander> have a problem with my x server
[04:59] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: http://gag.sourceforge.net/
[04:59] <xander> someone specialised here?
[04:59] <andy101> Starker: nautilus should be installed with Ubuntu, click places -> home folder, you see a list of files that is nautilus
[04:59] <gh0st> how can i uninstall something with "dpkg"
[04:59] <gh0st> ?
[04:59] <tristanmike> gh0st: "sudo apt-get remove <package>"
[04:59] <abhi> ghOst: man dpkg
[04:59] <quiet> gh0st, dpkg -P <package?
[04:59] <Starker> andy101: thnx man...
[04:59] <xander> after starting ubuntu my x server won't start
[04:59] <xander> i just get the ubuntu boot screen
[05:00] <Atthar> hi room, i want to download driver of my modem for linux, what is kernel of 6.06 LTS version?
[05:00] <xander> but the bar doesn't fill up anyore
[05:00] <ucordes> schlaffnudel
[05:00] <ucordes> hihihi
[05:00] <xander> anyone?
[05:00] <giftnudel> GaiaX11: thanks for the link, I will indeed have a look. And you are right, it is about my lack of knowledge on gag (it's not that much about prejudices, that was more like a joke, but might be a little true)
[05:00] <Flight> ok i accidentally removed some important repositories from the repository selection list. Is there a configuration file i can get to restore these repositories to their inital settings ?
[05:00] <Starker> I was wondering if there is any iste from where I can get all the commands and their functions for Ubuntu... I sthere any ?
[05:01] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: http://gag.sourceforge.net/
[05:01] <tristanmike> !easysource > Flight
[05:01] <giftnudel> Flight, run system->software channels
[05:01] <xander> somebody knows how I can configure my x-server? X won't start after booting
[05:01] <andy101> Atthar: to find your kernel version number type: uname -r
[05:01] <giftnudel> !easysource > giftnudel
[05:01] <meson_ray> I'm sorry, I can't help with grub.conf either :-(
[05:02] <Flight> tnx trinstanmike, how do i do this thing "to let someone know" private message ?
[05:02] <meson_ray> actually, I can
[05:02] <meson_ray> you guys gonna be here in 10 minutes or so?
[05:02] <tristanmike> giftnudel: try "/msg ubotu <factoid>" for private one-on-one encounters with ubotu :P
[05:02] <matt8806suomi> i need help with usb adsl
[05:02] <Atthar> andy101: tnx, but im in windwos now
[05:02] <kothz> Wow. openbox *is* rather minimalistic :)
[05:02] <giftnudel> tristanmike: yes, I realized that too, now ;)
[05:02] <Ash-Fox> !adsl
[05:02] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[05:02] <meson_ray> I'll be back
[05:02] <meson_ray> restarting
[05:02] <xander> somebody knows how I can configure my x-server? X won't start after booting
[05:02] <giftnudel> meson_ray: I'll wait
[05:03] <Ash-Fox> xander sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server
[05:03] <andy101> Atthar: is your Ubuntu up to date? I think they may have upgraded the kernel at some point
[05:03] <tristanmike> xander: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:03] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: I have said to you to test gag. Do not be a Philosopher. You will not solve your problem only by speaking. Hands on! friend
[05:03] <xander> thanks !
[05:04] <giftnudel> GaiaX11: it looks nice ;)
[05:04] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: It is great!
[05:04] <bipolar> does anyone know of a place to get gnucash-2 packages for dapper?
[05:04] <Atthar> andy101: i recived linux cd now! ok i will go to linux and will use uname -r, good luck :)
[05:04] <bipolar> is it in backports maybe?
[05:04] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: And you do not need to mess up your grub!
[05:05] <giftnudel> yes, I read that, too now
[05:05] <giftnudel> anyway, I won't need that ;)

[05:05] <TheAlpha> Hi
[05:05] <giftnudel> I only have linux on my laptop, so grub does just fine
[05:05] <GaiaX11> giftnudel: Me too. I use it only for emergencies.
[05:06] <rebecca_> hello are jou engels
[05:06] <TheAlpha> ive just got ubuntu 6.06 wrote to cd, boot it up, get a bunch of i/o error on hdc... ive tried removing the usb device as stated on the ubuntu forums, but this does nothing, any ideas?
[05:06] <rebecca_> oke ik snap er niks van
[05:07] <giftnudel> TheAlpha: you might want to do the cd check and see if the disc is any good?
[05:07] <giftnudel> or is that your hd?
[05:07] <TheAlpha> the disc is fine mate
[05:07] <rebecca_> haj zijn er ook nederlanders
[05:07] <KenSentMe> rebecca_: ga naar het kanaal #ubuntu-nl, voor nederlande support
[05:07] <abonilla> is there a way to forward my /dev/dsp to another box?
[05:07] <TheAlpha> not sure what it is to behonest, but theres a huge post at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186115&page=5&highlight=i%2Fo+errors
[05:08] <abonilla> ie. whatever I play in my box, let it play in the other nativelly?
[05:08] <elliotf> good morning, all..  after installing network-manager and network-manager-gnome, I found that network manager didn't work after a suspend to disk.  I created two scripts to stop it during suspend,and start it during resume, but I would have thought this should be in the package.  Is there something I'm missing?
[05:09] <elliotf> I used the '/etc/dbus-1/event.d/*' scripts to start/stop n-m and n-m-dispatcher...

[05:09] <meson_ray> ahh
[05:09] <GaiaX11> meson_ray: did you solve the problem?
[05:10] <elliotf> abonilla, `apt-cache search network sound daemon`
[05:10] <Storker> what can i use to record data from my screen?
[05:10] <elliotf> abonilla, odd, there used to be a piece of software called nsd that did just that (or something like it)
[05:10] <micael71> giftnudel sorry but it dont work do you know any ftp server that are easy to install
[05:10] <RankorFodder> ftpd?

[05:12] <TheAlpha> ive just got ubuntu 6.06 wrote to cd, boot it up, get a bunch of i/o error on hdc... ive tried removing the usb device as stated on the ubuntu forums, but this does nothing, any ideas?
[05:12] <RankorFodder> anyone want some coffee? making a pot.
[05:12] <theBeno> Hey guys, I have a question...
[05:12] <matt8806suomi> PROBLEM!! This doesn't work:  ""To change your password enter passwd <username>""
[05:12] <RankorFodder> theBeno: shoot
[05:13] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: are you entering that from the recovery console ?
[05:13] <theBeno> I've got a windows pc and my ubuntu pc, what is the easiest way to connect via shell from my windows pc to my ubuntu pc?
[05:13] <GaiaX11> TheAlpha: clean up your HD and reinstall everything
[05:13] <matt8806suomi> yeah, from the recovery console, in shell on /dev/hda2
[05:14] <theBeno> I want to be able to execute shell commands from my windows pc.  Also, any ideas for transfering files between them easily?
[05:14] <andy101> !ssh
[05:14] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto). Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows, which can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[05:14] <jgonzalez> hola
[05:14] <theBeno> andy101, Thank you. :)
[05:15] <markrian> How on Earth do you know all these bang commands? Is there a list of all those known to ubotu?
[05:15] <jgonzalez> You in talk my?
[05:15] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: and your doing "mynewpass matt8806suomi" ?
[05:15] <meson_ray> gah, qingy is breaking my system
[05:15] <SpComb> theBeno: for the file transfer, try WinSCP
[05:15] <SpComb> theBeno: it uses ssh as the transport protocol, so you don't need to install any extra services or anything
[05:16] <theBeno> What is winSCP?
[05:16] <SpComb> theBeno: the name of a program for windows that transferrs files over ssh
[05:16] <giftnudel> meson_ray: gentoo again ;)
[05:16] <theBeno> SpComb, ahh, alright.  Thanks.
[05:17] <meson_ray> well, i recently switched
[05:17] <matt8806suomi> tristanmike, i don't know what to type, can you give and example using the 'username' "tuxxel" and a new password of "2006" wanted
[05:17] <meson_ray> i just put it back to agetty
[05:17] <meson_ray> i think i broke something
[05:17] <theBeno> SpacePuppy, is there just a command I can use to copy files with just ussing the ssh terminal?
[05:17] <meson_ray> yay for emerge -uD world and not finishing it >_<
[05:17] <matt8806suomi> !ssh
[05:17] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto). Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows, which can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[05:17] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: sure "2006 tuxxel"   without the quotes and "tuxxel" has to already be a username
[05:18] <abonilla> Is there a way to link my /dev/dsp to the /dev/dsp of another machine?
[05:18] <giftnudel> matt8806suomi: passwd tuxxel
[05:18] <giftnudel> then enter 2006 when it tells you
[05:18] <giftnudel> abonilla: honestly, I don't thinks so
[05:19] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: yeah, what giftnudel said
[05:19] <meson_ray> wait... where the hell is boot.ini?
[05:19] <giftnudel> meson_ray: windows c:
[05:19] <meson_ray> well no, there wasn't
[05:19] <meson_ray> there's just boot.ini.backup
[05:19] <meson_ray> but it's the same contents
[05:20] <giftnudel> then dont give it
[05:20] <jgonzalez_> hi!
[05:20] <matt8806suomi> it says "passwd: unknown user tuxxel"
[05:20] <meson_ray> don't give it?
[05:20] <abonilla> giftnudel: So, there is no way for me to play music in this box and let it sound in another box?
[05:20] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: tuxxel has to be a user already on the system, is it ?

[05:20] <Dr_willis> abonilla,  use a music-streamer program and a client on the other box...
[05:20] <meson_ray> eh, sorry, didn't mean for that to happen
[05:21] <matt8806suomi> yes it is
[05:21] <matt8806suomi> tuxxel is a user

[05:21] <tristanmike> !pastebin > meson_ray
[05:21] <meson_ray> is there a better way to do this so i don't flood?
[05:21] <abonilla> Dr_willis: no way.
[05:22] <meson_ray> sorry, will use that
[05:22] <whazilla> anybody, u know a good way to init 3d acceleration with ati radeon without loosing X ? ^^
[05:22] <whazilla> lost time i did aticonfig --initial and lost X
[05:22] <Dr_willis> abonilla,   a doable way is too much work.. so you are researching  easier but most likely impossible ways. :P
[05:22] <giftnudel> Dr_willis: well said :)
[05:22] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: so you did "passwd tuxxel" and it said tuxxel isn't a user ?
[05:22] <SpComb> preliminary question, is it possible to install a fairly recent version of ubuntu using a usb key? My laptop doesn't have a CD drive
[05:22] <Dr_willis> Whatsisname,  backup your xorg.conf file so you can easialy restore it.
[05:23] <abionnnn> does anyone run xfig under kubuntu/ubuntu?
[05:23] <Dr_willis> grr...
[05:23] <abonilla> Dr_willis: no way to do a remote ln -s?
[05:23] <Dr_willis> whazilla, ,  backup your xorg.conf file so you can easialy restore it.
[05:23] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:23] <whazilla> yah i noticed that one
[05:23] <Dr_willis> abonilla,   i doubt that very very very much.,
[05:23] <abionnnn> a quick ltrace gives me: *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x083ce260 ***
[05:23] <whazilla> but still i would like 3D support
[05:24] <capiCrimm> Okay, my internet was working, but it just stopped and now liveCd and the installed version both can't get DHCP. interfaces and resolv.conf both look correct?, nothing changed except I installed vista on another hard drive.
[05:24] <Dr_willis> whazilla, ,  backup your xorg.conf , then follow the !ati wiki page yet?
[05:24] <Dr_willis> whazilla,  whats your specific video card?
[05:24] <micael71> in xp there is a exe file but what are there in linux
[05:24] <capiCrimm> ideas?
[05:24] <maelvino> ?
[05:24] <meson_ray> okay, they're al posted
[05:24] <Dr_willis> micael71,  linux fundamentals.. you mark a file as being executable
[05:24] <trappist> micael71: file extensions mostly don't matter on linux.  a file is executable or it isn't, regardless of extension.
[05:25] <matt8806suomi> yeah that's right
[05:25] <meson_ray> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25504/
[05:25] <giftnudel> SpComb: yes, it may work, but it is work
[05:25] <Dr_willis> micael71,  time to google/read a few linux beginner guides. :P
[05:25] <abionnnn> I guess this channel is too big for anyone to run xfig ?:P
[05:25] <fxTiger_> what is the commandline to rewrite grub menu from hard drive when I booted from live cd? I've had installed Ubuntu before, but another linux system's overwritten my grub in MRB.
[05:25] <Fibbs> Hi folks
[05:25] <giftnudel> meson_ray: how do you boot gentoo?
[05:25] <meson_ray> grub
[05:25] <meson_ray> grub.conf is up on that link
[05:25] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: you didn't put a root password in there did you ?
[05:25] <Fibbs> Did anyone of you run edgy as a domU in xen?
[05:26] <giftnudel> meson_ray: what is not working with this conf, it looks ok?
[05:26] <micael71> Dr_willis and trappist then how do i know how to start a program i have installed vsftpd but i dont know how to start it
[05:26] <meson_ray> windows won't boot from the windows bootloader when the swap partition is replaced with a logical/extended ext3/swap partition
[05:27] <meson_ray> with either this grub.conf or the one that ubuntu installed
[05:27] <meson_ray> menu.lst
[05:27] <Storker> libgnome2-dev:
[05:27] <Storker>  Depends: libgnomevfs2-dev but it is not going to be installed
[05:27] <giftnudel> meson_ray: I don't see a swap partition
[05:27] <Storker> how do i fix that :\ ?
[05:27] <meson_ray> it will go to the windows install
[05:27] <matt8806suomi> well i am simply trying to reset the password for the username tuxxel
[05:27] <Dr_willis> micael71,  the fact you are trying to run a ftp server, and dont know the basics of linux. is scary..  MOST likely you need to do a 'sudo /etc/init.d/SOMTHINGHERE start
[05:27] <Dr_willis> micael71,  where SOMTHINGHERE is the name of the service for that ftp server.
[05:27] <meson_ray> shoot, sorry, um, i reformatted the swap, it's /dev/hda2
[05:28] <Dr_willis> micael71,  look in /etc/init.d and see whats there. :)
[05:28] <abionnnn> Figs...
[05:28] <micael71> Dr_willies thanks i vill try it
[05:28] <WillEyedOney> anyone know how to get the user pane to show in xchat?
[05:28] <meson_ray> giftnudel: /dev/hda2 is the one that was an extended swap/ext3 partition, now it's just a linux filesystem partition
[05:28] <jgonzalez_> algien abla spaol?
[05:28] <Starker> my files i.3 Mp3 Images are on another partion actually Fat32... RythemBox can't add them and I can see them in Nautilus.. it says not mount or something.. can anyone tell me what that mount is and what amI suppose to here ?
[05:28] <matt8806suomi> the new password i want is 2006 and i have not used that password before on that pc
[05:28] <davin> Hi guys, How can I see wether the module for my Logitech Quickcam Express (webcam) is running? I remember me doing this a time aog but I forgot how
[05:28] <Dr_willis> WillEyedOney,  you sure its not just resized too far to the right?
[05:28] <flx> is anyone using xubuntu with metacity and does now how to change the window border? i dont know, nor can i find anything on the net.....
[05:29] <Logix> hey
[05:29] <Starker> I cant see them through nautilus *
[05:29] <giftnudel> jgonzalez_: #ubuntu-es
[05:29] <fxTiger_> what is the commandline to rewrite grub menu from hard drive when I booted from live cd? I've had installed Ubuntu before, but another linux system's overwritten my grub in MRB.
[05:29] <WillEyedOney> Dr_willis: it's not even visible to resize
[05:29] <Mr0bvious> Hello. I currently dual boot Ubuntu 6.06 and Windows XP. I'd like the grub bootloader to boot to windows by default instead of having to choose it on the startup menu.
[05:29] <RankorFodder> WillEyedOney: theres a little icon under the channel panel that has the number of users. if you click on it, it toggles the user list in the channel
[05:29] <giftnudel> fxTiger_: grub-install (hd0)
[05:29] <Logix> can anybody help me with a "volume shortcut" problem?
[05:29] <meson_ray> giftnudel:  either way, the windows bootloader loads fine no matter what the partitions are.  the problem is that windows won't boot from its own bootloader
[05:30] <giftnudel> meson_ray: where do you install ubuntu
[05:30] <meson_ray> giftnudel:  from either the partition(3) or (4)
[05:30] <Logix> when i use my multimedia keyboard button to change volume- it changes, but on the OSD that comes up- it only says "muted" and nothing changes...
[05:30] <WillEyedOney> RankorFodder: thanks but I'd like it visible all the time, like it was in the old version I had :)
[05:30] <micael71> Dr_willis ok it asked me if i would like to run it and i did but where is the program
[05:30] <tristanmike> matt8806suomi: the only thing I can think is that someother user might have put a root password, other than that, rebooting, entering the "rescue mode" and at a console type "passwd tuxxel" should prompt you for a new password for that user, if that user already exists...
[05:30] <RankorFodder> WillEyedOney: sorry mate, not sure about that one
[05:30] <meson_ray> i installed ubuntu in /dev/hda5, which was an extended partition from /dev/hda2
[05:30] <silent_scream> hi guys, i updated my kernel to 686 from 386, and installed beryl too, but now tvtime and gnomeradio doesn't work! have you any ideas?
[05:30] <Mr0bvious> Does anyone have a clue?
[05:30] <THX-1138> Mr0bvious: You can edit the file /boot/grub
[05:30] <Dr_willis> micael71,  'what' asked?
[05:30] <Mr0bvious> THX-1138: THat's a directory.
[05:30] <ag`> Does anyone know where I can get a metacity package 2.16 with composite flag enabled?
[05:31] <WillEyedOney> RankorFodder: thanks, I'll see if I can't get rid of this crap version asnd find a better one
[05:31] <grem> hi, pocket question :) Does the Gnome released in 6.10 beta, comes compiled with --enable-compositor ?
[05:31] <giftnudel> no
[05:31] <Dr_willis> micael71,  a server program has binaries in the /bin dirs and config files in /etc/ and  other files in other places....
[05:31] <Belboz99> Hey, I'm having problems with XGL
[05:31] <grem> ok, tks
[05:31] <Dr_willis> micael71,  the /etc/init.d stuff are the scripts to start the service properly
[05:31] <giftnudel> Belboz99: #ubuntu-xgl ?
[05:31] <tristanmike> Belboz99: check out #ubuntu-xgl"
[05:31] <ag`> haha grem, I am trying to find a package for metacity that is compiled with that flag
[05:31] <Mr0bvious> THX-1138: Is there a specific file in that directory I can edit? I've tried playing a small amount with no success.
[05:31] <Belboz99> thanks giftnudel
[05:31] <ag`> grem: so if you find out anything, tell me!
[05:31] <grem> sure ag` :)

[05:35] <jenda> I tried that first
[05:35] <midgetg0at> right, that was pretty irrelevant....trying to edit fstab, not mess w/ x

[05:35] <giftnudel> meson_ray: well, I can tell you a partitioning that will work, but you might want to have a look at gag as described by GaiaX11

[05:36] <meson_ray> i'll give it a shot
[05:36] <Flight> ??
[05:36] <giftnudel> meson_ray: otherwise, you probably have to repartition
[05:36] <erUSUL> !easysource
[05:36] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic

[05:36] <jenda> thx
[05:36] <midgetg0at> ok, how do i check the attrib of the dizam file...
[05:36] <meson_ray> giftnudel;  it's easy enough to just delete the boot partition and divide that and /dev/hda2 into two partitions
[05:36] <giftnudel> meson_ray: there is a way to resize some partitions (ntfsresize ext2resize ...
[05:36] <Starker> erUSUL: plz be specific I am novice...dont understand hints...

[05:40] <suprchris> yes
[05:40] <meson_ray> giftnudel:  well, i might do it anyway and link some of this partition to directories in ubuntu

[05:41] <giftnudel> meson_ray: sorry that I can't do more

[05:42] <tristanmike> suprchris: you might have to wade through that list
[05:42] <Flight> erUSUL i remember that in my original sources.list there was some "non free software" repository and from the site you gave me i can add them, but i don't remember which one they were... so i would really appreciate if you or someone could just send me a fresh and unmodified ubuntu 6.06 /etc/apt/sources.list file

[05:42] <midgetg0at> chown the partition...actual command?

[05:42] <theBeno> thedash, no.
[05:42] <thedash> awesome
[05:43] <theBeno> thedash, it would work fine on many hds.
[05:43] <Flight> giftnudel  i deleted some of them
[05:43] <erUSUL> Flight: my sources.list is from the source-o-matic site so i can not help you
[05:43] <theBeno> thedash, but you have to have the bootloader configured.
[05:43] <meson_ray> giftnudel:  yeah, i'll just make a swap and then i won't evne have to change anything (except kernel location) in grub.conf
[05:43] <Flight> okok maybe you know someone who has a original sources.list? or someone here in the channel? i think a lot of people did not modify their sources.list yet

[06:36] <devicenull> does ubuntu not have a way to get the kernel source?

[06:36] <zeemon> Hi, how can I fix a flash bug at Firefox. In some pages with video embedded CPU usage get saturated and somtimes a "Flash Script error" appears. Tnx
[06:37] <surface2> Kronoz:  3dchess ?
[06:37] <devicenull> I did.. apt-cache search kernel
[06:37] <devicenull> the onl things I see that relate are "linux-image*" and "linux-headers*"
[06:37] <Kronoz> linux-image is the kernel :p
[06:37] <gnomefreak> zeemon: you can find the root of the issue and thean fix it from there or file a bug report and let the people that do that all day long fix it
[06:38] <devicenull> Kronoz, the source to it?
[06:38] <gnomefreak> devicenull: linux-source....
[06:38] <surface2> devicenull:  did ur source repo enabled in sources.list?
[06:38] <archville> Kronoz: try gnuchess
[06:38] <Chm0d> anyone have the link to the huge list of how-tos for ubuntu?
[06:38] <devicenull> weird, I see it now
[06:38] <FunnyMan3595> Is there any way to get remote desktop (via VNC) to work at the login screen?  It works as soon as I log in physically, but I just had to reboot remotely, and I can only get shell access at the moment.
[06:38] <zeemon> If I could fix it I would not be reading u moron
[06:38] <gnomefreak> Chm0d: wiki.ubuntu.com
[06:38] <eracc> surface2, you /are/ starting it with a command running. However the command then ends and the shell exits as it is designed to do.
[06:38] <Kronoz> device-null, what are you trying to do? for most things linux-headers is fine
[06:38] <surface2> can i start gnome-terminal with a command running?
[06:38] <Chm0d> ty
[06:38] <tristanmike> Chm0d: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UserDocumentation
[06:38] <surface2> i start with gnome-terminal -x ls, it start and ends quickly
[06:39] <devicenull> Kronoz, I need to rebuild my display driver, with an additional hack
[06:39] <surface2> eracc:  what if i want it to stay?
[06:39] <devicenull> apparently the driver's firmware has a bug where it doesnt allocate enough memory... meaning I can't start X
[06:39] <eracc> surface2, try starting it with 'top' then it will stay until you kill top. :-)
[06:39] <Kronoz> devicenull, linux-headers should work fine then
[06:39] <surface2> eracc:  try to put read -n 1 it doesn;t stay too
[06:39] <devicenull> Kronoz, I also plan on rebuilding the kernel when I'm done
[06:39] <micael71> tristanmike thanks again
[06:39] <zeemon> fuck u moron
[06:39] <surface2> eracc:  but it still die after i kill top :(
[06:39] <tristanmike> micael71: anything look good ?
[06:40] <Chm0d> hmm not the one i was lookin for.  One im looking for all the how-to links were blue
[06:40] <surface2> eracc:  i want it to stay after running a command line..
[06:40] <Kronoz> devicenull, install the linux-source package then
[06:40] <devicenull> I know...
[06:40] <devicenull> I couldnt find it in apt before for some reason
[06:40] <eracc> surface2, seems to me you probably want to look at the shell startup *rc files. Like .bashrc and such.
[06:41] <micael71> tristanmike it looks like it is only ftp not server
[06:41] <FunnyMan3595> I'd also take a way to set up a display specifically for VNC, so I could just start gnome from an SSH shell and then tunnel in.

[06:49] <puneet-msv> :(
[06:49] <micael71> tristanmike i did install it but where is it
[06:49] <collier> Come on
[06:49] <collier> Someone pleasE?
[06:49] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: what does .vnc/kiwi:1.log say?
[06:49] <collier>  I put in my USB and its in File Browser under computer but when I click it it says UNABLE to mount the selected volume
[06:49] <FunnyMan3595> eracc: Installing now.
[06:49] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: That's where I pulled the message from.
[06:49] <midgetg0at> and why does "mounting root filesystem" take so long on a 1ghz box.....seems ghetto.
[06:50] <aeroSoul> ok
[06:50] <eracc> FunnyMan3595, it appears that your vncserver default window manager is twm. You can change that by editing /home/funnyman3595/.vnc/xstartup.
[06:50] <raygn2> Collier: I would if i could, mine is mounting but says no files and i know there are
[06:50] <Arcad3> at the Evolution -Mail POP configuration at server must be a port too?
[06:50] <midgetg0at> file system it cant read raygn2?
[06:50] <tristanmike> micael71: it's pertty much command line driven, so if you need to install a windows proggy, it's usally just "wine program.exe" and it should install, but check out the wine page  http://www.winehq.com/  for info on the particular proggy you're installing
[06:50] <midgetg0at> sudo mount -a
[06:50] <midgetg0at> ?
[06:50] <raygn2> Collier: I had to umount it and remount it by hand
[06:51] <tristanmike> micael71: you can do "winecfg" to get a graphical configuration tool
[06:51] <raygn2> it is a fat32
[06:51] <collier> How do I do that?
[06:51] <aeroSoul> you could also remove .vnc/xstartup... i dont have it
[06:51] <FunnyMan3595> Okay, that cleared up the "command not found"
[06:52] <aeroSoul> still not starting?
[06:52] <carlos_junior> how i'm can configure Winmodem on Amd 64?
[06:52] <iamtheobject> So, Someone told me to check out ubuntu, I found it to be the easiest install ever. just one thing, When I attempt to install "firestarter" from the "add/remove" it installs but when I reboot the machine it is not there anymore?
[06:52] <micael71> tristanmike how do i do a winecfg
[06:52] <britt> i changed my time using ntpdate, and now sudo complains that the timestamp is too far int he future
[06:53] <britt> hwo do i fix that?
[06:53] <raygn2> Collier: sudo umount
[06:53] <raygn2> Collier: is your machine running a sata drive
[06:53] <collier> no
[06:53] <holycow> does anyon eknow the samba command to resolve an ip address as a windows machine name on a network?
[06:53] <holycow> !samba
[06:53] <raygn2> its isayding unable to mount /dev/sda1
[06:53] <bmartin> ola
[06:53] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:53] <eracc> FunnyMan3595, so, did it start?
[06:53] <bmartin> ola
[06:54] <tristanmike> micael71: in a terminal
[06:54] <iamtheobject> and , whats the command to make a nic card pull dhcp fro the server (i'm on cable modem)
[06:54] <iamtheobject> fro/from/s
[06:54] <aeroSoul> holycow: smbuser -L <ip>

[06:54] <Starker> Xmms seems to be multimedia player to me... Isnt there anyway to install some codecs( if they are called codecs here in Ubunu too) to be used with Rythembox instead?
[06:54] <collier> no
[06:55] <holycow> aeroSoul, oh thanks!  i'm writing that down ... i keep on forgeting it
[06:55] <holycow> apreciate that
[06:55] <aeroSoul> holycow: smbclient not smbuser

[06:55] <FunnyMan3595> Here's the full .vnc/Kiwi:1.log : http://www.tssi.com/charlie/vnclog
[06:55] <aeroSoul> holycow: next time just type smbclient --help =)
[06:55] <britt> can anybody fix the sudo complaining about the timestamp issue?
[06:55] <raygn2> Collier: is it similar
[06:55] <tristanmike> Starker: did you follow the instructions here ?   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-1340337f2ca1d0c54900935468515ba7630fcc59
[06:56] <collier> nope
[06:56] <raygn2> so it just wont mount it
[06:56] <Starker> I will now  hope that answers my query :)
[06:56] <FunnyMan3595> britt: Try sudo -K
[06:56] <tristanmike> Starker: have a look at the whole page too :P
[06:57] <Starker> sure
[06:57] <FunnyMan3595> britt: It didn't seem to work immediately, but it cleared up shortly.

[07:00] <shwag> why were there ssh updates recently? was there a security bug?

[07:05] <gentimjs> hi, ive got a laptop i just installed Kubuntu (latest vers) on ... what package or meta-package do i need to install to get the CLI tool "tip" (to talk to a serial port) or does anyone have a better suggestion of another tool to use?
[07:05] <eracc> FunnyMan3595, hmmm, do you have X11 fonts installed?
[07:06] <zoidi79> well, I can't get to a console - and it can't even start gdm - which is pre-x, right?
[07:06] <midgetg0at> hrm, i just did "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hdb1 /mnt/storage" and got the error wrong fs type...
[07:06] <raygn2> orestyle3:  try this, open a terminal up, then sudo ifdown eth0, then sudo ifup eth0

[07:07] <SpComb> hmm. I am able to boot up the debian sarge installer off a USB stick. Should I go ahead and install sarge, i.e. can I turn sarge into ubuntu later?
[07:07] <raygn2> orestyle3: then try to ping an ip if that works then try to ping an address like google.com
[07:07] <orestyle3> raygn2:  funny thing is when I can connect to the internet, it is only for a short time, then I loose connection again
[07:07] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595 did it help?
[07:08] <FunnyMan3595> eracc: Looks like not.
[07:08] <orestyle3> raygn2:  still shows destination host unreachable.  Trying to ping dfgw and other local hosts
[07:08] <raygn2> orestyle3: this at home or work and have u used this machine with a differant os and connect ok
[07:08] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: COuldn't find fonts there either.
[07:09] <gentimjs> anyone know about tip ?
[07:09] <transgress_> what happened to lilo?
[07:09] <Ademan> where is the actual "Trash" folder?

[07:09] <devicenull> Is there a way to tell what video card I have?
[07:09] <eczarny> hey, is anyone here using Ubuntu on Parallels Desktop?
[07:09] <atraeyu> Can anyone tell me how I can copy one directory to another when I don't have priveleges and I can't login as root?
[07:09] <FunnyMan3595> eracc: What's the package name?
[07:09] <gentimjs> devicnull , lspci
[07:10] <orestyle3> raygn2:  I also dont loose connectivity with the other OS's
[07:10] <devicenull> ah, thx
[07:10] <eracc> FunnyMan3595, then you need to "sudo apt-get" some fonts for X11. That is required for using X even over vnc. There are many font files.
[07:10] <zoidi79> gentimjs: it seems there is no package with a executable called "tip" in dapper - at least not in ubuntu proper, don't know where to check for kubuntu
[07:10] <raygn2> orestyle3:  I would almost say the driver is not installed or configured properly for that card
[07:10] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: http://nopaste.php-q.net/243847 add this to your commandline
[07:11] <gentimjs> zoid, tip is a pretty standard thing that AFAIK comes with binutils on every other distro ive used
[07:11] <gentimjs> ive never not had it :-(
[07:11] <gentimjs> its a simple CLI tool to give you a terminal on the serial port ... emulates a VT220
[07:11] <orestyle3> raygn2:  I also have no problems when just running off the disk
[07:11] <aeroSoul> you already have a desktop running right? so you have fonts installed
[07:11] <aeroSoul> @ FunnyMan3595
[07:11] <raygn2> orestyle3:   i would boot itup with the live cd and then look at the drivers and configurations make note of them and then reboot to the installed os
[07:12] <atraeyu> How can I change the permissions on a directory so that I have access to copy files there?
[07:12] <raygn2> orestyle3:  compare them and make any needed changes
[07:12] <froud> Where in Ubuntu does one put modular drives so they will be loaded at boot?
[07:12] <kupesoft> What's the good lenovo laptop to buy that supports ubuntu fully,
[07:12] <Arcad3> chmod  777 ........
[07:12] <eracc> FunnyMan3595, hmmm, try installing xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi.
[07:12] <aeroSoul> eracc: i think he already has them... but vncserver is looking at the wrong location
[07:13] <Arcad3> atraeyu:chmod 777 file or folder
[07:13] <orestyle3> raygn2:  I am still new to debian/ubuntu so where would I best find the drivers? and what would I best be looking for?
[07:13] <eracc> aeroSoul, odd. I just installed vncserver here and it worked without a hitch.
[07:13] <FunnyMan3595> Aha!  Thanks, aero, it may be working now.  I'm not seeing a fatal error any more, at least.
[07:13] <aeroSoul> eracc: same here... but look at his error log
[07:13] <FunnyMan3595> Let me try a connection...
[07:13] <aeroSoul> ould not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/
[07:13] <axa-axa> until I havent enabled "cool'n'quiet' in BIOS "powernow-k8" module could not be loaded, now it's loaded just fine. But I'm curios, what is this module (powernow-k8) for, what does it do?
[07:13] <axa-axa> One this I noticed is that during some very simple screensaver my CPU load goes to 100%
[07:13] <eracc> aeroSoul, I was looking at it. That is why I wondered about the fonts.
[07:14] <gentimjs> how about minicom ?
[07:14] <Locke2> yo
[07:14] <aeroSoul> well now i see the dir exists here... but when i type xset -q in x11 i get a different font path... that's what i pasted
[07:14] <Locke2> so i resized my swap partition in partition magic
[07:14] <matt8806suomi> anyone know of a finnish-english traslator for gnome
[07:14] <Locke2> which included moving 2 other partitions as well
[07:14] <FunnyMan3595> eracc: Yeah, that particular dir isn't where the fonts are, for some reason.
[07:14] <eracc> aeroSoul, I usually see people putting vnc on a box that does not have a monitor (headless) so X stuff may be missing.
[07:14] <Locke2> and now it wont mount my root partition
[07:15] <FunnyMan3595> eracc: They're hiding over in /usr/share/X11
[07:15] <Arcad3> ho can i make at my console to appear aracd3@arcad3.ath.cx instead of arcad3@arcad3??
[07:15] <orestyle3> raygn2:  Ok, so I disconnected the network cable from the wall, reconnected it and was able to get a good ping, then about 30 seconds later, I lost connectivity...
[07:15] <axa-axa> Anyone?
[07:15] <eracc> FunnyMan3595, yes. I saw them here on /usr/share. Just wondered if perhaps a symlink had gone missing or something.
[07:15] <zoidi79> gentimjs: minicom is available via apt-get
[07:15] <wd3> ok how can i del grub from loading on a previously linux hd? i formatted hd with winxp as a d: drive. i changed partition to fat32, when i put hd in new box grub still loads... help?
[07:15] <orestyle3> raygn2:  Seems like it would be something in the wall, but I am still, with other os's, able to get connected and ping other machines...
[07:16] <gentimjs> zoid, im not seeing it on the list with adept .. let me try changing my repository settings
[07:16] <raygn2> orestyle3:  i would use the systemsettings to run a comparison for now

[07:18] <eracc> aeroSoul, FunnyMan3595, hmmm, I installed tightvncserver here (because that is what I have used on other Linuxen). Maybe that is the difference?
[07:18] <xopher> keegan: you need to supply the filesystem of the cd when mounting it, like this: mnt /dfe/dfd.iso -t iso9660 -o loop
[07:18] <keegan> aerosoul: yes
[07:18] <Arcad3> sudo chmod 777 -R.,,,,,,,,
[07:18] <gentimjs> zoid, yeah the latest kubuntu (got the cds from shipit last week)
[07:18] <aeroSoul> keegan: maybe you have to add -t iso9660
[07:18] <FunnyMan3595> Just created the symlink myself, now it starts without the parameter.
[07:19] <eracc> IIRC tightvncserver is a set of wrapper scripts that sets everything up for one.
[07:19] <keegan> I don't have the ISO image on a CD yet.  Do I need to burn it to one before I can see what is inside?
[07:19] <aeroSoul> eracc: dont know how different they are... :)
[07:19] <zoidi79> atraeyu: vfat doesn't have permissions, so you can't set them
[07:19] <FunnyMan3595> Now I just need to figure out how to get it to start gnome instead of whatever wierd thing it's using by default.
[07:19] <cpl-tnt44> aeroSoul . thanks we'll check if that works
[07:19] <aeroSoul> all i did in ubuntu was apt-get install vncserver and run vncserver... and it worked =)
[07:20] <The-Poet> hey guys, I have trouble booting my system, it freezes at "Setting up console keymap..."... I'm quite new to linux disasters so help is very appriciated!
[07:20] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Yeah, that's exactly what I tried to do, but it was just Not To Be.  :S
[07:20] <keegan> When I type -t iso9660 I got wrong fs type
[07:20] <wd3> Arcad3, i formatted the hd as a d: drive in winxp as a fat32..... but when i set it to master in a new box grub still loads.
[07:20] <eracc> aeroSoul, heh, and I did the same except with tightvncserver. So, we prove that it should work "out of the box" no matter which one chooses. ;-)
[07:20] <luismi> kjdhddf
[07:21] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Was a new install, so there shouldn't have been anything wierd about it.
[07:21] <atraeyu> zoidi79: VFAT doesn't have permissions?  I'm not sure I understand ... I formatted the disk using disk writer, now I just want to copy data to it off my internal hard drive ...
[07:21] <aeroSoul> keegan: image damaged?
[07:21] <SpComb> if I have debian sarge installed, can I turn it into ubuntu by changeing /etc/apt/sources.list and then doing a dist-upgrade?
[07:21] <keegan> I converted a bin/cue file into an .ISO image using bchunk
[07:22] <keegan> Could converting it be the problem?
[07:22] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: where did you have that .vnc/xstartup from then or what it was?
[07:22] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: did you copy the home dir from another machine?
[07:22] <zoidi79> gentimjs, that's strange - which repositories are activated in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[07:22] <gentimjs> zoid, checking
[07:22] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Hang on, RL chaos for a few mins here.
[07:23] <aeroSoul> keegan: maybe...
[07:23] <atraeyu> I need to format a disk so it can be read by both linux and windows computers.  What format should I use?  VFAT?
[07:23] <Flight> how do i enable ssh support in ubuntu?
[07:23] <tonyyarusso> Would an ubuntu install go okay if done with a rewritable cd, or does that cause problems?
[07:24] <tonyyarusso> Flight: Install openssh-server
[07:24] <andy_> SpComb: I wouldn't install ubuntu on Deian Sarge, no way.
[07:24] <zoidi79> atraeyu, vfat is a pretty simple fs - it does not store permission information for every file, as ext2 or ntfs do. linux kind of "emulates" permissions when you mount a vfat volume
[07:24] <SpComb> andy_: can I boot the ubuntu installer off a usb stick then?
[07:24] <zoidi79> atraeyu, the permissions used can be set in /etc/fstab
[07:24] <aeroSoul> tonyyarusso: it willinstall
[07:25] <tonyyarusso> aeroSoul: All right, good.
[07:25] <andy_> SpComb: I've never tried it.
[07:25] <gentimjs> zoid, all are uncommented
[07:25] <The-Poet> if anyone who has knowlege about troubleshooting boot problems,  please help me since my boot freezes at"Setting up console keymap..."... thanks :)
[07:25] <atraeyu> zoidi79: I've got it formated as VFAT right now, but ubuntu says that only the "owner" (root) has permission to write to it.  There isn't an owner account on ubuntu, so I don't know how to copy from my directory to the disk ... I believe I need to change the permissions on the disk (mounted at /mnt) ... but sudo chmod 777 /mnt doesn't do anything ...
[07:25] <Zoohouse> The Software Update app on ubuntu 6.06, is the name of this package 'Software Update'? Why I ask: I want to report a bug for this app at aunchpad.net
[07:25] <SpComb> http://www.ubuntux.org/starting-ubuntu-from-a-usb-stick <-- this is what I found
[07:26] <SpComb> "it's based on Debian and you can switch it to Ubuntu by bootstrapping it."
[07:26] <gentimjs> zoid, im trying with adept again refreshing headers
[07:26] <Zoohouse> The Software Update app on ubuntu 6.06, is the name of this package 'Software Update'? Why I ask: I want to report a bug for this app at Launchpad.net
[07:26] <devicenull> when I installed xserver-xorg-dev, where did it put everything?
[07:26] <devicenull> I'm looking for the source to xserver-xorg-driver-i810
[07:26] <Zoohouse> Is Launchpad.net the place where I should report this bug?
[07:27] <aeroSoul> devicenull: /var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xorg-dev.list is a text file with a list of files installed by the package
[07:27] <Asc> Zoohouse: It's probably update-manager.  I don't know where to report a big though.
[07:27] <FunnyMan3595> Sorry about that, I'm back now.
[07:27] <zoidi79> gentimjs, that might be a good idea
[07:28] <FunnyMan3595> The xtartup created itself when I ran vncserver the first time.
[07:28] <Jad|WorkOut> Uh, hey, I was wondering if it woulden't be too much to ask for a lttle tec. help with ubuntu.
[07:28] <gentimjs> zoidi, my n00bness kicked in, didnt realise it doesnt "ship" with a header listing bundled with the install
[07:28] <zoidi79> atraeyu, could you tell my the corresponding line for the disk in /etc/fstab?
[07:28] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: you aren't using dapper?
[07:28] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Yes I am.
[07:28] <Terminus> Zoohouse: yep, launchpad is the place.
[07:29] <Zoohouse> Jad|WorkOut: Just ask the question
[07:29] <Zoohouse> Asc, Terminus: Thanks! :)
[07:29] <VaxNam> Er
[07:29] <VaxNam> Ok
[07:29] <aeroSoul> ok but then why do you have Xvnc Free Edition 4.1.2 and i have Xvnc version 3.3.7?
[07:29] <zoidi79> gentimjs: headers? that must be gentoo-speak ;-)
[07:29] <aeroSoul> i installed dapper, too
[07:29] <atraeyu> zoidi79: #/dev/hdb1 /media/hdb1 ntfs ro,user,fmask=0133,dmask=0022,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0
[07:29] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: now i get it.. you install vnc4server
[07:29] <zoidi79> gentimjs: i stil forget to run apt-get update sometimes
[07:29] <VaxNam> I'm trying to install Ubuntu and it tells me wich language to pick. That's as far as I can get.
[07:29] <aeroSoul> the package
[07:30] <aeroSoul> i installed vncserver
[07:30] <atraeyu> zoidi79: Wait, that's not it
[07:30] <keegan_> aeroSoul: Seems you were correct that its not an ISO image.  You know anywhere I could that gives a good tutorial on how to use Bchunk?
[07:30] <devicenull> sometimes, I hate dell.
[07:30] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: What happens after that?
[07:30] <gentimjs> zoidi, that did it! thanks for the tips
[07:30] <aeroSoul> keegan_: no sry
[07:30] <gentimjs> fetching with adept now
[07:30] <aeroSoul> !google bchunk tutorial
[07:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about google bchunk tutorial - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:30] <zoidi79> gentimjs, glad i could help
[07:30] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Nothing I click on English like 100 times
[07:30] <VaxNam> and nothing happens
[07:30] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul Hmm.
[07:31] <aeroSoul> not right?
[07:31] <fsancho> hi all
[07:31] <Wulong> Where do ubuntu store info about wireless lan/cards and what package/program/daemon/module(?) do this?
[07:31] <atraeyu> zoidi79: I don't see a line in fstab that corresponds to it.  What I did was: System -> Administration -> Disks ... Formatted the Disk to VFAT and set the mountpoint there to /mnt
[07:31] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Thinking back, I may have installed it from the vnc website instead of through apt.
[07:31] <BiSk-8> hello, can any1 tell me a .rar password cracker for lost passwords to use on a debian based system (ubuntu)???
[07:31] <fsancho> anybody knows something about this error "irq 185: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)"
[07:31] <fsancho> ?
[07:31] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: weird... Is this for Ubuntu 6.06? Command prompt installation?
[07:31] <VaxNam> No GUI instlation, and it is 6.06
[07:32] <VaxNam> I'm installing from a Live CD
[07:32] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: there are 2 vncserver packages in ubuntu.. 1. vncserver 2. vnc4server
[07:32] <VaxNam> I can take a picture to show you where I'm stuck at
[07:32] <aeroSoul> maybe gnome will work if you install the vncserver package...
[07:32] <aeroSoul> it started gnome for me at least
[07:32] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: give me a sec
[07:32] <VaxNam> Allright.
[07:33] <The-Poet> please, my boot freezes at  "Setting up console keymap..." and i need help to get my booting working normally...
[07:33] <david> i have permissions "user, rw" in my fstab and can't write to my fat32 partition, can someone help?
[07:33] <mooseman447> hey
[07:33] <zoidi79> atraeyu, run "mount" once to see which dev the hd mounted at /mnt is
[07:33] <mooseman447> is there anyway to use floppies to do a network install of ubuntu like debian?
[07:33] <rellis> I am trying to print to an HP 5150tn printer from Ubuntu. I defined the printer and selected the paper output size as "letter". However when I actually print anything the printer continually requests "A4" sized paper. Any ideas?
[07:34] <zoidi79> atraeyu, then "sudo umount /mnt"
[07:34] <atraeyu> zoidi79: /dev/hdb1 on /mnt type vfat (rw)
[07:34] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Okay, installed the package, but it looks like the "vncserver" shortcut still points to the old version.
[07:34] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: What if you try to install via command line? Does it get stuck?
[07:35] <VaxNam> I haven't tried that yet, and i'm not sure how, Zoohouse.
[07:35] <Starker> Thnx guys.. have succesfully installed the "ugly" plugins for Mp3 ( on my way I have found out how to convert mass mp3s into ogg so dont worry, on the free license issue, I am with you guys need some experience before I could completley siwtch to Ubuntu))...U guys have been helpful...
[07:35] <atraeyu> zoidi79: Okay, it's not longer mounted
[07:35] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: try starting it with it's full path... you will see the path where it is installed by the package @ /var/lib/dpkg/info/vncserver.list
[07:36] <zoidi79> atraeyu, then remount it with 'sudo mount -o "defaults,user,uid=0,gid=1000,umask=002" /dev/hdb1 /mnt'
[07:36] <mluser-laptop> what file do I edit to have certain kernel modules loaded at boot time?
[07:37] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Does it make any diffrence if I'm running off a Live CD?
[07:37] <mooseman447> does anybody know a floppy based network install for ubuntu?
[07:37] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: what do you mean?
[07:37] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: sry not true.. you wont find the path to the vncserver script or whatever it is...
[07:37] <Terminus> mooseman447: i've been wondering about that for months too. haven't found any. =|
[07:37] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: /usr/bin/vncserver should be the right one
[07:37] <atraeyu> zoidi79: I did that, but it still tells me no permissions (I'm trying to drag a folder I "own" into the /mnt directory)
[07:37] <ojai> google's not coming up with anything on this.  I just tried installing the gpsd package but it apparently had some issues installing.  Now any time I try using apt or dpkg, I get "fgets gave an empty string from diversions [i] ".  Anyone know WTF that is all about?
[07:38] <reidms> Where is httpd.conf located?
[07:38] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Can You Instal Via Command Line with a Live CD, or does it not make a diffrence.
[07:38] <mooseman447> terminus darn i have some old boxes that would like ubuntu server but their mobo's dont support cd boot
[07:38] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Well, that explains why I'm not figuring it out from that file.
[07:38] <Zoohouse> reidms: $whereis httpd.conf
[07:38] <mooseman447> i guess ill just use debian....
[07:38] <The-Poet> guys, do you know if init get stuck if the system clock has been fiddled with?
[07:38] <mluser-laptop> could someone please let me know what file I need to edit to have certain kernel modules loaded at boot time?
[07:38] <SpComb> there's a ton of stuff on the net about installing ubuntu to a usb drive, but I can't find anything about installing it from a usb drive
[07:38] <reidms> Zoohouse i found it but it has nothing in it
[07:39] <SpComb> does anyone know how to do that?
[07:39] <reidms> I am trying to password protect my webserver
[07:39] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: it isnt listed because /usr/bin/vncserver a link...
[07:39] <zoidi79> mooseman447, why not do floppy install with debian, then switch packet sources to ubuntu?
[07:39] <Terminus> mooseman447: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/57863 <-- this guy says he was able to install ubuntu using the sarge floppies. i guess he just changed some stuff.
[07:39] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Yeah...
[07:40] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Just checked update-alternatives, and it's only showing the one copy.
[07:40] <SpComb> zoidi79: out-of-band, does switching packet sources work?
[07:40] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: I *think* that you might be able to install it via command line. It might make a difference if there is a bug or something in the GUI installation. That's why I recommend you to try the command line install.
[07:40] <bruno__> hey ... i need help with Azureus. I cant make the "light" of DHT become green.. it is yellow and it says that DHT is firewalled... How can i solve that??/
[07:40] <zer0moon> Hi everyone
[07:40] <david> does my swap partition need a mount point, my fstab says none for a mount point?
[07:40] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: http://vax.ej.am/P1000803.jpg
[07:41] <zoidi79> SpComb, well, i updated an old sarge install to ubuntu 5.10 without any problems
[07:41] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: update-alternatives doesnt know about your self compiled vncserver...
[07:41] <Zoohouse> reidms: you found that file?
[07:41] <mooseman447> you can swtich debian to ubuntu?!
[07:41] <aeroSoul> it only knows packages
[07:41] <Terminus> mooseman447: aha! apparently, they can't fit the 2.6 kernels onto floppies.
[07:41] <bruno__> hey ... i need help with Azureus. I cant make the "light" of DHT become green.. it is yellow and it says that DHT is firewalled... How can i solve that??/
[07:41] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: broken URL
[07:41] <VaxNam> Darnit, hold o
[07:41] <zoidi79> atraeyu, which gid does your user have?
[07:41] <VaxNam> On
[07:41] <VaxNam> Sorry
[07:41] <SpComb> zoidi79: good to know, thanks
[07:41] <Terminus> mooseman447: yep. change the repos. not really clean though.
[07:41] <atraeyu> zoidi79: 1000
[07:41] <mooseman447> oh why not just put nic drivers and get the kernal of the net
[07:41] <aeroSoul> bruno: did you open the port?
[07:41] <devicenull> Is there a tool that can generate an xorg.conf for me?
[07:41] <mooseman447> is there any guide to doing that?
[07:41] <zer0moon> is there any way to make the Gnome Terminal that comes with Ubuntu display ANSI characters correctly? is there a particular font I hafto set or something?
[07:42] <Terminus> mooseman447: well, you need a kernel to boot the installer in the first place. =)
[07:42] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: http://vax.ej.am/8.JPG
[07:42] <aeroSoul> devicenull: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:42] <Terminus> mooseman447: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot <-- one of the not so clean network installs
[07:42] <devicenull> aeroSoul, thanks
[07:43] <WizCraker> is there a way to clear the command history?
[07:43] <bruno__> yea i did.. at least i tried.. uhauha.. but it says that NAT is ok..
[07:43] <mooseman447> alright thanks its going to be a while for my 75mhz packard bell to finish the install lol
[07:43] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: :)
[07:43] <Wulong> WizCraker: echo > ~/.bash_history
[07:43] <Terminus> WizCraker: rm ~/.bash_history
[07:43] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: try hitting enter
[07:43] <BiSk-8> hello, can any1 tell me a .rar password cracker for lost passwords to use on a debian based system (ubuntu)???
[07:43] <VaxNam> I did.
[07:43] <VaxNam> About 10 times
[07:43] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: if hitting enter doesn't work try TAB then enter
[07:43] <WizCraker> Wulong and Terminus: thanks.
[07:43] <bruno__> i opened 2 port with 2 different numbers...
[07:44] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: I think the Next button might be off the screen
[07:44] <Wulong> Where do ubuntu store info about wireless lan/cards and what package/program/daemon/module(?) does provide this information?
[07:44] <Terminus> mooseman447: the one on the wiki requires network boot. probably not quite like what you wanted.
[07:44] <aeroSoul> bruno: did you open it as udp port?
[07:44] <VaxNam> Zoohouse
[07:44] <zoidi79> i can't find a howto right now, but if you have a standard debian install (not too many backports etc.), you can just switch package sources, do a "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade"
[07:44] <VaxNam> Tab Enter say
[07:44] <bruno__> in the modem ... and i configured the firestarter (firewall) to accept connections of bittorrent
[07:44] <VaxNam> Do you want to abort install
[07:44] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: click no, then try TAB TAB Enter
[07:45] <bruno__> yea it is.. i opened 1 for UDP and one for TCP
[07:45] <zoidi79> atraeyu, hm that's strange - i have the exact same mount parameters for a vfat drive here and can write to it, no problems
[07:45] <cadamuz> hello
[07:45] <VaxNam> something is happening!
[07:45] <VaxNam> WOO!
[07:45] <aeroSoul> bruno: dont know about firestarter. but my dht started to work when i changed the udp port to something high (40000)...
[07:45] <zer0moon> is there a way to make gnome terminal display proper ANSI characters?
[07:45] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: you need to try to catch the 'Next' button that is underneath the tool bar. Your Screen ress is too low
[07:45] <K-i-m> quick question: can i force a reboot? typing sudo reboot dosent work and I rather not use the reset switch...
[07:46] <VaxNam> I'm not sure how to do it
[07:46] <mumblesmac> ok is there any way to uninstall ubuntu?
[07:46] <VaxNam> How to make it smaller
[07:46] <aeroSoul> bruno: i think you also have to "boot" from an user ip or something... there is an option somewhere
[07:46] <VaxNam> Right now it is having problems
[07:46] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: you mean, wipe it froom the hd?
[07:46] <bruno__> hmm.. ill try it right now...
[07:47] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Okay, I changed the last line of ~/.vnc/xtartup to gnome-session &, and it's working now.
[07:47] <aeroSoul> bruno: go to plugins/distributed db and click reseed
[07:47] <mumblesmac> i have a old version of ubuntu installed - before the xp reinstall and now its not reinstallering or  loading up properley
[07:47] <matt8806suomi> hey off topic, do you know of a finnish-english traslator for gnome
[07:47] <mumblesmac> herm . crap.
[07:47] <bruno__> ok
[07:47] <Zoohouse> you can do it when you boot off the CD when you see something like Boot:       (before you hit enter and ubuntu loads) You should see something like "Press F1 for options
[07:47] <mumblesmac> ata1: translated ata sat/err
[07:47] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: i dont even have a xstartup and it works =) and you can change the default window manager with update-alternatives somehow...
[07:48] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: xp reinstall... i guess your bootloader is hosed
[07:48] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: where are you located?
[07:48] <mumblesmac> yeh proberbley
[07:48] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: That was far more painful that it should have been, but it's done now, it works with just the basic command.  :)
[07:48] <collier> I am trying to install a deb file and when  I click it it says Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: tsocks. Anyone know why?
[07:48] <aeroSoul> lol
[07:48] <VaxNam> I'm in North Carolina USA Zoohouse
[07:48] <aeroSoul> really...
[07:48] <mumblesmac> how do i sort i out ?
[07:48] <VaxNam> Yes, I will do that, witht he f1 for options
[07:49] <froud> hmmm, why is  modconf not installed on Ubuntu?
[07:49] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: oh.. never seen a .ej.am before :)
[07:49] <collier> I am trying to install a deb file and when  I click it it says Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: tsocks. Anyone know why?
[07:49] <atraeyu> zoidi79: Strange ... I have no idea what to do :(
[07:49] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Good Free Hosting :D
[07:49] <matt8806suomi> do you know of a finnish-english traslator/dictionary for gnome
[07:49] <Blissex> collier: whats hard to understand in a missing dependency?
[07:49] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: this page might help: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Restore_Grub
[07:50] <collier> What does that mean?
[07:50] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: Oh? Whats the site?
[07:50] <VaxNam> You have to post on the forum
[07:50] <VaxNam> But other than that
[07:50] <collier> Blissex: what does that mean?
[07:50] <VaxNam> http://www.ej.am
[07:51] <Blissex> collier: ah kids of today... so used to APT that manual dependencies scare them :-)
[07:51] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: It's easy after 10 posts beacuse the more you post the more bandwith and space you get bla bla,
[07:51] <kupesoft> anyone run ubuntu on a lenovo laptop?
[07:51] <Blissex> collier: package A needs B; 'dpkg' finds package B is not installed, so will not install package A.
[07:51] <devicenull> so, is anyone here running ubuntu on an inspiron 2600?
[07:51] <Blissex> !poll
[07:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about poll - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:51] <Asc> coller: It might mean that the package 'tsocks' is not in the repositories, but that's just a guess....  You might try enabling more repositories, or googling 'caller debian package' and installing it by hand.
[07:52] <Blissex> collier: 'apt-get' handles dependencies automatically, but 'dpkg' does not (more or less).
[07:52] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: weird...
[07:52] <collier> So what do I need to do?
[07:52] <VaxNam> What Zoohouse?
[07:52] <morrye> how do you format a partition from the terminal?
[07:53] <K-i-m> is there a way to reboot except by "sudo reboot"? it dosent work..
[07:53] <matt8806suomi> lenovo laptops, no problem
[07:53] <devicenull> when I try to start X, I get this error: "I810(0): No video bios modes for chosen depth"

[07:53] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: Weird that they are interested in people post's... lol Never seen that business model
[07:53] <K-i-m> devicenull: that dosent work either
[07:53] <VaxNam> Yeah

[07:54] <devicenull> weird, dunno then
[07:54] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Any idea where I'd look to change the color depth?  My wallpaper looks screwey.
[07:54] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: What did I need to ajust to see everything?
[07:54] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Er...
[07:55] <aeroSoul> FunnyMan3595: you have to specify the depth in the command line
[07:55] <K-i-m> devicenull: its like every command I put in that has to do with rebooting recieves input and bash waits for my new command... halt on the other hand works
[07:55] <FunnyMan3595> aeroSoul: Nevermind, it just decided to refresh and look good.  O.o
[07:55] <devicenull> shutdown -r now doesnt need any input..
[07:55] <aeroSoul> lol
[07:55] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: I posted it above.. Let me see if I find it
[07:55] <K-i-m> devicenull: yes i know, i mean that it takes the command as any other and awaits a new input from me
[07:55] <BiSk-8> hello, can any1 tell me a .rar password cracker for lost passwords to use on a debian based system (ubuntu)???
[07:56] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Yeah Sorry... I was trying to find it myself.
[07:56] <FunnyMan3595> K-i-m: I see the same sort of thing.  It displays the shutdown notice, but doesn't kick me right away.  It does, however, kick me after a bit.
[07:56] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: np
[07:57] <xaktli> I was wondering how i change the Gamma/Brightness in Ubuntu (i'm new to it) I have tried all the reachable guides in can find :)
[07:57] <K-i-m> FunnyMan3595:  *shakes head* mine is kind of a weird freeze... I had to CTRL+C at the boot to get into a shell
[07:57] <mumblesmac> argh
[07:58] <mumblesmac> knoppix dosent even start now.
[07:58] <zoidi79> atraeyu: ok, umount hdb1 again and try this: mount -o "rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=77" /dev/hdb1 /mnt
[07:59] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: can you boot from a livecd?
[07:59] <mumblesmac> i coulden the last time i checked
[07:59] <K-i-m> hey.... whga
[07:59] <aeroSoul> BiSk-8: do you have one for windows? then install wine
[07:59] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: I can't figureout how to do it, seeing i'm in setting and I can't find anything related to the  screen i tried the moniters menu and no luck there either.
[08:00] <mumblesmac> knoppix goes round in cercals
[08:00] <K-i-m> whats this: "/dev/sda2 superblock last write time is in the future. FIXED." ??
[08:00] <BiSk-8> aerosoul, i tried, the two i have wont work
[08:00] <collier> On my uncles ubuntu if he goes to some website that has something bad on itm it shuts down firefox.. does anyone know how to do that?????????/
[08:00] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: you finished installing ubuntu?
[08:00] <VaxNam> No, I coulden't get past the Map
[08:00] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: and the ubuntu install cd doesn't boot either?
[08:00] <aeroSoul> BiSk-8: i think none really work... password protected .rar archives are encrypted i think
[08:00] <VaxNam> So I needed to ajust the screen
[08:01] <mumblesmac> ryin it now
[08:01] <BiSk-8> aerosoul, they work with windows
[08:01] <aeroSoul> BiSk-8: so the only way to hack it is a bruteforce attack... which could take years =)
[08:01] <aeroSoul> oh thats what you mean
[08:01] <puneet-msv> errr
[08:01] <BiSk-8> already tried
[08:01] <BiSk-8> can i get john to work with rar?
[08:01] <collier> On my uncles ubuntu if he goes to some website that has something bad on it it shuts down firefox.. does anyone know how to do that?????????/
[08:01] <FunnyMan3595> Speaking of wine, anyone had luck getting WoW to work under 0.9.22?  Last time I tried, it got stuck at Authenticating, but that might have just been that WoW needed to be patched.
[08:01] <ubuntubob> sounds like a firefox plugin
[08:01] <aeroSoul> BiSk-8: i dont know.. but you could install vmware and install windows as a virtual machine inside your linux
[08:02] <aeroSoul> all windows progs will work...
[08:02] <BiSk-8> nah not work it
[08:02] <BiSk-8> is vmware free?
[08:02] <puneet-msv> I am not able to change permissions of a folder in an NTFS drive using nautilius or chmod ( I can't even change ownership ) :(
[08:02] <aeroSoul> yes
[08:02] <eracc> What is the specific apt-* command to look for a particular file from a package when one does not know the name of the package please?
[08:02] <aeroSoul> !vmware
[08:02] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository. Instructions to install VMWare Server can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingVMWare
[08:02] <K-i-m> guys, where are the init scripts located? i think my problem lies there...
[08:02] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: try to restart the computer with the CD in the try
[08:02] <zoidi79> BiSk-8: rar uses AES-128 for encryption, that's pretty much uncrackable - at least not in a reasonable timeframe
[08:02] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: I'm going to try booting from safe graphics mode
[08:02] <ubuntubob> errac
[08:02] <Zoohouse> right
[08:02] <richiefrich> ] !upstart
[08:02] <richiefrich> !upstart
[08:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about upstart - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:03] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: safe graph might do the trick
[08:03] <ubuntubob> apt-get install file*
[08:03] <mumblesmac> ive got the live disk fancy startup now
[08:03] <Jas-Nix> hey guys, I am running edgy amd64, I am trying to get packages out of the multiverse repository and nothing is showing up in my apt-cache search
[08:03] <Jas-Nix> any ideas?
[08:03] <VaxNam> We'll see. This computer has been unused for a long time beacuse it was a peice of junk and i finally fixed it, Zoohouse.
[08:03] <ubuntubob> and apt-get build-dev file*
[08:03] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: say zoohouse so that I can hear the beep because I am writing a bug report on another screen.
[08:03] <VaxNam> Zoohouse
[08:04] <sureshot> Jack_sparrow you on today my friend
[08:04] <richiefrich> useless ..
[08:04] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: it will run like a charm with Linux. Is this your first time installing linux?
[08:04] <mumblesmac> reses on starting enerprise volume managemen systmem
[08:04] <VaxNam> No, I had suse for a while Zoohouse
[08:05] <Jas-Nix> VaxNam: say Zoohouse first or he won't get notified of new message I don't think
[08:05] <eracc> For example on my Mandriva boxen I can use 'urpmf <filename>' to get a list of packages that contain <filename>. Very useful when building from source and ./configure reports something is missing.
[08:05] <Blissex> on 'upstart': http://WWW.sabi.co.UK/Notes/anno06-3rd.html#060828
[08:05] <acuster> hey all, for a client side subversion stuff, I need subversion-tools only?
[08:05] <VaxNam> Zoohouse
[08:05] <mumblesmac> nope i crashes
[08:06] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Safe Graphics Mode Dosen't work
[08:06] <VaxNam> I'm at a command Line now
[08:06] <aeroSoul> eracc: doesnt apt-cache search xx find packages that contain xx as a file?
[08:06] <Zoohouse> Jas-Nix, VaxNam: Zoohouse can be at the end of the sentence also. As long that the word zoohouse appears, ill be notified.
[08:06] <eracc> aeroSoul, no idea. I'll try and see. :-)
[08:06] <sureshot> ok all does anyone know a url or wiki to show a person how to install aiglx
[08:06] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: try command line
[08:06] <VaxNam> Yeah
[08:06] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: how did you install ubuntu the first time around? do you still have that cd? does it boot?
[08:06] <K-i-m> guys, is there a simple way to see a log file of where my init scripts fail?
[08:07] <eracc> aeroSoul, I've been using xununtu almost 5 days now. :-)
[08:07] <mumblesmac> the normal way
[08:07] <aeroSoul> eracc: maybe it only searches description, dont know... but there's probably an option
[08:07] <Jas-Nix> Zoohouse: ok, I know some clients only do it at the beginning
[08:07] <mumblesmac> and it wokred fine untill i reinsallaed windows about 2 weeks ago
[08:07] <eracc> *xubuntu
[08:07] <aeroSoul> eracc: hf! debian/ubuntu is great =)
[08:07] <Jas-Nix> anyway, is anyone here running ubuntu amd64 ?
[08:07] <mumblesmac> wow i may be geting somewhere here
[08:08] <WooD> Hi !
[08:08] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Command sudo Install failed
[08:08] <aeroSoul> Jas-Nix: i had it installed for 30 mins... then i wanted to install opera and itdidnt work... so i installed 32bit version =)
[08:08] <Jas-Nix> aeroSoul: lol, great
[08:08] <aeroSoul> :D
[08:08] <K-i-m> i envy you mumblesmac, because im stuck here like if i was stuck in a mud
[08:08] <aeroSoul> sry =)
[08:08] <Jas-Nix> aeroSoul: I'm trying to install mplayer
[08:08] <WooD> Any of you use a Skype Phone with the option of PSTN Phone on the same phone on UBuntu ?
[08:08] <zoidi79> yeah, application support is still a bit limited for amd64
[08:09] <ivoks> howdy
[08:09] <aeroSoul> mplayer is a popular package with sources... there should be a 64bit package of it!?
[08:09] <zer0moon> is there a way to make gnome terminal display proper ANSI characters? it displays the wrong characters when i use bitchx
[08:09] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: any progress?
[08:09] <mumblesmac>  nope got the frount flash screen and thats about it.
[08:09] <harisund> Hello! Is there any good handheld / pocket computer that can run Ubuntu successfully? (As in drivers for video/wireless etc..) .. I want to use it primarily to check email online and read eBooks and play chess while on the road.. any suggestions?
[08:09] <mumblesmac> or even just before the ubuntu logo
[08:09] <ashb_008> hey all
[08:09] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: holly molly...
[08:09] <Jas-Nix> zoidi79: ya it is, I went to de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse and there's amd64 .deb's
[08:09] <zoidi79> aeroSoul: I guess many of mplayer's codecs are win32 "ports"
[08:09] <WooD> any of you guys use skype on Ubuntu
[08:09] <Jas-Nix> so I'm curious why they aren't showing up under apt-cache search mplayer
[08:10] <ubuntubob> I got skype
[08:10] <mumblesmac> going to have a coffie
[08:10] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Did I do something wrong?
[08:10] <VaxNam> I'ma real noob sometimes.
[08:10] <ashb_008> how do get mp3 support
[08:10] <sureshot> ok all does anyone know a url or wiki to show a person how to install aiglx
[08:10] <WooD> ubuntubob: do you use any adapter to be able to use your normal PSTN Phone on skype ?
[08:10] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: Go into the boot options and see if you can find how to manually enter the screen ress. It might look something like boot: 800X600
[08:10] <Jas-Nix> sureshot: yes
[08:10] <zoidi79> Jas-Nix: you do have multiverse activated in sources.list, right?
[08:10] <sureshot> may i have it
[08:10] <sureshot> please
[08:11] <sureshot> jas_nix please
[08:11] <Jas-Nix> zoidi79: yes it's uncommented

[08:12] <aeroSoul> theBeno: server?
[08:12] <ivoks> theBeno: no
[08:12] <ashb_008> i dont understand that can some1 please help me
[08:12] <aeroSoul> ssh server?
[08:12] <zoidi79> WooD: i don't think there is such a thing
[08:13] <tonyyarusso> theBeno: install openssh-server
[08:13] <VaxNam> Zoohouse: Nope :\
[08:13] <theBeno> aeroSoul, I just want to connect to my server.
[08:13] <aeroSoul> ssh is installed by default in ubuntu-server... just not the server
[08:13] <Zoohouse> ekk
[08:13] <WooD> ho... I have Call Center from Vosky that's work Perfect in Windows  but not yet compatible with linux
[08:13] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: give me a min and ill try it.
[08:13] <eracc> ivoks, I understand that one CD can only hold so much. But no 'mc' in the default is crippling to me since I have been relying on mc at the CLI for years. :-P
[08:13] <VaxNam> This makes me want to bash my head
[08:13] <VaxNam> up against this wall
[08:13] <sara> sara_8_betica@hotmail.com
[08:13] <ivoks> eracc: you don't even get vim on edgy
[08:13] <theBeno> if I install ssh will I be able to connect to it via ssh?  or do I have to install openssh-server?
[08:14] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: stay here, i am going to look for a live cd and reboot my pc. don't go and don't change your nickname ;)
[08:14] <codecaine> when I install apache and try to runa  php file
[08:14] <ivoks> theBeno: ssh will install server
[08:14] <aeroSoul> theBeno: you have to install the server
[08:14] <codecaine> it ask me to download it in the browser why
[08:14] <codecaine> I install php5 and mysql
[08:14] <theBeno> ivoks, thanks.
[08:14] <ivoks> codecaine: you didn't install php
[08:14] <VaxNam> Zoohous: Allright :D
[08:14] <eracc> Oh great, ivoks, unless I have net access I have no file manager at the CLI /and/ no editor.
[08:14] <Zoohouse> VaxNam: and defiantly don't smash your head, you are going to need it for the following steps :D
[08:14] <VaxNam> Allright haha
[08:14] <codecaine> invoks: php5 installed
[08:15] <ivoks> eracc: bash is file manager; you have vim-tiny
[08:15] <codecaine> libapache2-mod-php5
[08:15] <codecaine> andy that
[08:15] <codecaine> and that
[08:15] <zoidi79> WooD: eh, didn't know there was such a box
[08:15] <eracc> ivoks, IMO bash is a rather poor file management application. Great for starting a file manager though. ;-)
[08:15] <ivoks> codecaine: try reinstalling php5
[08:16] <WooD> zoidi79: yeah it is so beautiful .. no more long distance anymore
[08:16] <RetLaw> Hi Folks, Is port 22 (SCP) per default active on a Ubuntu 6.06 server ?
[08:16] <ivoks> RetLaw: no
[08:16] <ivoks> ubuntu has no-open-ports policy
[08:16] <RetLaw> ivoks: : how do ?
[08:16] <ivoks> this includes UDP and TCP with exception to dhcp client
[08:17] <zoidi79> WooD: oh, i thought the box did skype, but it just uses you phone as i/o for your pc
[08:17] <mumblesmac> nope nothing
[08:17] <ivoks> RetLaw: i didn't understand your question
[08:17] <theBeno> ivoks, Can I copy files to and from the ssh server with putty?  or do I need to use some sort of scp client?
[08:17] <aeroSoul> will a k7 kernel run on amd64 cpus? or do i have to recompile it?
[08:17] <RetLaw> I need to transfer a file for installation
[08:18] <collier> How Do I close port 5590 On my PC?
[08:18] <collier> How Do I close port 5590 On my PC?
[08:18] <ivoks> theBeno: i don't know; i don't use windows
[08:18] <theBeno> ivoks, alright.  Thanks.
[08:18] <codecaine> still ask me to download it invoks :(
[08:18] <aeroSoul> theBeno: you need an scp client
[08:18] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: if the cd used to boot when you first installed ubuntu and it does not boot now, it might be damaged - perhaps you can download the iso image and burn it again, then try again
[08:18] <eracc> theBeno, you need scp
[08:18] <Lunar_Lamp> i have a problem i dont understand.  i confiugured my laptop to use alt+end to be XF86NextTrack - and it skisp track in amarok when any window is selected.  i have configured the "forward" arrow on my usb keyboard plugged into my laptop to be XF86NextTrack also, but it will only work when amarok is the focused window <== can anyone help here?
[08:18] <codecaine> the weird thing I have to run apache2 from /usr/sbin/apache2
[08:18] <mumblesmac> I bunrt a new install cd
[08:18] <RetLaw> ivoks: :sorry, how can I make it active on a cmd-line server. I need to transfer a file for installation
[08:19] <codecaine> I tried restart /etc/init.d/apache2
[08:19] <codecaine> doesn't show any status on it though
[08:19] <ivoks> RetLaw: you need to install it; sudo apt-get install ssh
[08:19] <aeroSoul> doesnt ssh only install the ssh client?
[08:19] <RetLaw> ivoks thanks, i'll give it a try
[08:19] <ivoks> aeroSoul: no
[08:19] <ivoks> aeroSoul: ssh client comes by default
[08:19] <zer0moon> is there a way to make gnome terminal display proper ANSI characters? it displays the wrong characters when i use bitchx
[08:20] <ivoks> codecaine: it's hard to diagnosse the problem :/
[08:20] <aeroSoul> Depends: openssh-client, openssh-server
[08:20] <aeroSoul> i c.. it installs server and client at once
[08:20] <codecaine> :/
[08:20] <ivoks> if the client isn't installed allready, which it is
[08:20] <ivoks> codecaine: installing php5 package should do the trick
[08:21] <aeroSoul> will a k7 kernel run on amd64 cpus? or do i have to recompile it?
[08:21] <ubuntu_> hola
[08:21] <ivoks> codecaine: maybe you messed with configuration files of apache
[08:21] <codecaine> its installed
[08:21] <codecaine> I didn't edit it invoks
[08:21] <zoidi79> mumblesmac: try the exact same cd you used to install it
[08:21] <ivoks> aeroSoul: use -686 on amd64, if you are using 32bit version of ubuntu

[08:26] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: So. Can I conclude that it is 64?
[08:26] <theBeno> Oh, does anyone know how to change the login message for ubuntu server?
[08:26] <jp> meheren: there's also a plug-in for xmms called 'XMMS AudioFile' that can read aiff files
[08:27] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: And the best linux to install is 64 bits? Am I wrong?
[08:27] <ivoks> you are
[08:27] <ivoks> :)
[08:27] <codecaine> :p
[08:27] <theBeno> ivoks, Do you know how to change the login message for ubuntu server?
[08:27] <ivoks> theBeno: /etc/motd
[08:28] <man_id_unknown> I need help with GTK
[08:28] <theBeno> ivoks, Thanks! :)
[08:28] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: 64bit is no good idea to install =)
[08:28] <aeroSoul> imo
[08:28] <VladimirBG> I've got adsl model that connects trough ethernet, but requires login and pass to connect to my ISP, under fedora I used xDSL template in NETWORKING, how do I do it in Ubuntu?
[08:28] <eracc> aeroSoul, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25512/ <- comparison of file seraching inside packages from what I know how to do right now.
[08:28] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: Why not?
[08:29] <eracc> *searching
[08:29] <ubuntubob> man_id_unknown: wassup with gtk?
[08:29] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: because opera doesnt run on it... :P
[08:29] <ubuntubob> man_id_unknown:just been having a lot of fun with it myself
[08:29] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: and so are some other progs i think
[08:29] <man_id_unknown> ubuntubob: Ha! I'm using FreeBASIC. It says I'm missing "lgtk-x11-2.0"
[08:29] <GaiaX11> So. What for?
[08:30] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: So. What for?
[08:30] <botxj> BSD = BS
[08:30] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: 64 bits?
[08:30] <ubuntubob> man_id_unknown:to begin with I would do apt-get install gtk*
[08:30] <man_id_unknown> ubuntubob: Yes, let me try that...
[08:31] <stojance> glejte go ova: http://kajgana.com/more.php?id=345&tema=7
[08:31] <acidjazz> why doesnt ubuntu run /etc/profile or /etc/bashrc when ppl login like every other linux dist does? and what does it run?
[08:31] <ubuntubob> then apt-get build-dep gtk
[08:31] <aeroSoul> eracc: dont know if apt-cache can do this...

[08:32] <RedRose> anyone know what is up with webmin in edgy?
[08:32] <man_id_unknown> ubuntubob: It wouldn't install. I may have to restart.
[08:32] <VladimirBG> I've got adsl model that connects trough ethernet, but requires login and pass to connect to my ISP, under fedora I used xDSL template in NETWORKING, how do I do it in Ubuntu?
[08:32] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: [GaiaX11]  aeroSoul: Mine is: cpu family : 6 model:4 <- i dont htink that this means its 64bit =)
[08:32] <ubuntubob> man_id_unknown:whats the error?
[08:32] <eracc> aeroSoul, ouch. I am really used to 'urpmf <filename>' helping me find missing development packages. I hate losing that functionality by moving to *buntu. :-(
[08:32] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: whats the model name?
[08:33] <man_id_unknown> ubuntubob: dpkg interrupted...
[08:33] <mettallicat> hey ...
[08:33] <mettallicat> i need help
[08:33] <man_id_unknown> ubuntubob: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[08:33] <ubuntubob> man_id_unknown:I doubt restart would change that
[08:33] <aeroSoul> eracc: the file lists of installed packages is in /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list... you could use grep... dont know about uninstalled packages
[08:33] <man_id_unknown> ubuntubob: I see. How can I fix this?
[08:33] <ubuntubob> man_id_unknown:habe you run the config?
[08:33] <bLaZeD> man_id_unknown, run that command
[08:33] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: model name      : AMD Athlon(tm) Processor
[08:34] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: that's a 32bit cpu
[08:34] <eracc> aeroSoul, yeah, but stuff that is not installed is where I need to search. ;-)
[08:34] <mettallicat> i cant open urls by xchat .. i need to have Firefox open to be able to open url's ... other way it wont open a new
[08:34] <bLaZeD> man_id_unknown, it *should* fix your prob
[08:34] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: cpu family      : 6
[08:34] <man_id_unknown> blazed: yes, let me try that...
[08:34] <eracc> aeroSoul, if a ./configure tells me a file is missing then the package is unlikely to be installed.
[08:34] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: model           : 4
[08:34] <Avagant|Sleep> i have a problem.
[08:34] <Avagant|Sleep> !sudo
[08:34] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:35] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: ????!!!
[08:35] <ucordes> is there a source where i can obtain logfiles of this channel??
[08:35] <mettallicat> i cant open urls by xchat .. i need to have Firefox open to be able to open url's ... other way it wont open a new can someone help me .. i'm on edgy
[08:35] <buzzy> hello!
[08:35] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: athlon = 32bit
[08:35] <Avagant|Sleep> i keep getting an error message "sudo: must be setuid root"
[08:35] <bLaZeD> mettallicat, try #xchat
[08:35] <man_id_unknown> ubuntubob: It's seems to be working.
[08:35] <VladimirBG> I've got adsl model that connects trough ethernet, but requires login and pass to connect to my ISP, under fedora I used xDSL template in NETWORKING, how do I do it in Ubuntu?
[08:35] <Avagant|Sleep> whenever i try into sudo bash or whatever it keeps telling me "sudo: must be setuid root"
[08:35] <S0me1> Hi all
[08:36] <S0me1> i have problem with WEP
[08:36] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: cat /proc/cpuinfo does not tell me anything about that
[08:36] <Avagant|Sleep> Anybody?
[08:36] <Avagant|Sleep> !help
[08:36] <buzzy> i'm desperate! when i boot my ubuntu it says :Uncompressing linux...OK. booting the kernel... then it appears a black screen and nothing else: how can i restore my ubuntu?? (i have this problem since i have installed, maybe wrongly, nvidia drivers)
[08:36] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[08:36] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: if it is 32 or 64. How do I know for sure?
[08:36] <segfault> Avagant|Sleep, try reinstalling sudo
[08:36] <S0me1> before 5 days it was working fine, but now it dose not ... Any advice plz?
[08:36] <aeroSoul> eracc: usually with apt-cache search you will find files related to the missing file... download the ones with -dev at the end... shoudl be enough =)
[08:36] <Avagant|Sleep> is that the problem?
[08:37] <ivoks> who needs help with php?
[08:37] <Avagant|Sleep> cause it says "sudo: must be setuid root" whenever i type sudo bash into the terminal
[08:37] <buzzy> i'm desperate! when i boot my ubuntu it says :Uncompressing linux...OK. booting the kernel... then it appears a black screen and nothing else: how can i restore my ubuntu?? (i have this problem since i have installed, maybe wrongly, nvidia drivers)
[08:37] <jp> Avagant|Sleep: I haven't had this error before, but did you try googling for the error message? The first hit I get is a FAQ that describes how to fix this.
[08:37] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: [GaiaX11]  aeroSoul: model name : AMD Athlon(tm) Processor <- i know that athlon is a 32bit cpu because i have one myself =)
[08:37] <zoidi79> eracc: if apt-cache doesn't help, use packages.ubuntu.com - you can search for filenames in packages there
[08:37] <ivoks> codecaine: here?
[08:37] <VladimirBG> !search adsl
[08:37] <ubotu> Found: adsl,pppoe,dsl
[08:37] <y34zhang> hi
[08:38] <eracc> zoidi79, ok, thanks.
[08:38] <codecaine> yes
[08:38] <Samuel> #ubuntu-it
[08:38] <bLaZeD> buzzy, during boot hit ctrl alt f1 to drop u at cli...once there edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to use a generic driver(i have nvidia and if i nneed a generic driver i use "vesa") then try to goto the gui
[08:38] <kalisto> whats the prog called to auto download codecs? its for debian and ubuntu?
[08:38] <ivoks> codecaine: go to /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/
[08:38] <sureshot> ok all question if i changed my driver in my xorg.conf file from fgrlx to radeon did i change the driver to radeon
[08:38] <codecaine> ok there
[08:38] <segfault> buzzy, sounds like u have an issue starting x, reboot into single user mode, and then edit ur xorg.conf file to use nv instead of nvidia
[08:38] <jp> buzzy: if you're using lilo, then you must run lilo before rebooting every time you change the kernel (installing graphics drivers counts as a change)
[08:38] <VladimirBG> !info pppoe
[08:38] <ubotu> pppoe: PPP over Ethernet driver. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.5-4ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 64 kB, installed size 208 kB
[08:38] <ivoks> codecaine: there should be php5.* files, but in your case they aren't
[08:38] <jp> (and what blazed said)
[08:38] <WooD> zoidi79: it does both .. For skype and Also for PSTN normal phone
[08:38] <codecaine> there not
[08:38] <ivoks> codecaine: do sudo ln -s ../mods-available/php5.* .
[08:38] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: sorry i was wrong.. there ARE athlon 64bit... but it does say 64bit in the model name
[08:38] <ivoks> codecaine: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[08:39] <ivoks> codecaine: it should work now
[08:39] <Flight> how do u make synamptic retrieve new files in repositories ?
[08:39] <Avagant|Sleep> but it says i need to run it as root and i can't because sudo bash is the command i use to get into root!
[08:39] <acidjazz> why doesnt ubuntu run /etc/profile or /etc/bashrc when ppl login like every other linux dist does? and what does it run? /etc/ubunturc? wtf?
[08:39] <zoidi79> WooD: yeah, but the box doesn't actually do the skype protocoll - if it did, it wouldn't need a pc with skype installed...
[08:40] <sureshot> ok all question if i changed my driver in my xorg.conf file from fgrlx to radeon did i change the driver to radeon
[08:40] <jp> Avagant: you can also use su - to become root

[08:40] <acidjazz> ivoks; i got a PS1= in there that never does run
[08:40] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: And where can I see that mine is 32 bits? I mean using a command like or the like?
[08:40] <jp> sureshot: yes, after you restart X
[08:40] <acidjazz> ivoks; so it doesnt.
[08:40] <sureshot> blazed i did relogin is that restaring x
[08:40] <kalisto> whats the little program called for ubuntu that lets you select what codecs one wants to install?
[08:41] <buzzy> how can i edit files in linux from windows?

[08:41] <ivoks> codecaine: shutdown your browser and reopen it
[08:41] <ucordes> ctrl+alt+backspace restarts x quick
[08:41] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: when you type cat /proc/cpuinfo on a 64bit amd machine,it will say 64bit in the model name... ona 32bit machine it doesnt... :P

[08:42] <acidjazz> ivoks: but i have before, i konw it works..
[08:42] <acidjazz> ivoks: ive used it for years in all my other installs
[08:43] <codecaine> maybe I need to reboot my pc
[08:43] <hollaback> can u use a xbox 360 controller on ubuntu
[08:43] <ivoks> codecaine: are you sure you have php5* files in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled?
[08:43] <zoidi79> WooD: i'm don't know any - cisco has a new wlan phone that does skype on its own
[08:43] <codecaine> yes
[08:43] <aeroSoul> buzzy: there is a ext2 filesystem driver for windows...
[08:43] <codecaine> I did a ls
[08:43] <tiede> I want to make it so that someone cannot drag the bottom tolbar of my PC across the screen. How do I do that?
[08:43] <Flight> how do u make synamptic update his list of known files from repositories ?
[08:43] <aeroSoul> buzzy: google for it
[08:43] <codecaine> php5.conf and php5.load
[08:43] <ivoks> acidjazz: you know you have .bashrc?
[08:43] <WooD> zoidi79: ok ill check that now
[08:43] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: You mean that if in the model does not say 64 and 32 is omitted it means that it is 32?
[08:43] <ivoks> acidjazz: it overrides settings in /etc/bash.bashrc
[08:43] <bluefox83> Flight, select "Reload"
[08:43] <acidjazz> ivoks; dood i want this to run for every user
[08:43] <buzzy> aeroSoul what is its name?
[08:44] <acidjazz> ivoks; no .bashrc
[08:44] <Flight> bluefox83 and it will download infos about files in repositories ?
[08:44] <ivoks> acidjazz: dud, you have it nad it overrides what you set up in bash.bashrc
[08:44] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: kinda... i say when the model name doesnt have 64bit in it, it's no 64bit amd cpu =))
[08:44] <acidjazz> ivoks; i rm'ed it a while ago
[08:45] <aeroSoul> buzzy: dont know... i only know that it exists
[08:45] <acidjazz> ivoks; if i add a new user are they gonna get that gay .bashrc ?
[08:45] <ivoks> acidjazz: yes
[08:45] <codecaine> maybe I should install apache
[08:45] <ivoks> acidjazz: remove it frome /etc/skel
[08:45] <acidjazz> ivoks; wheres that come from
[08:45] <acidjazz> ok
[08:45] <acidjazz> tnx
[08:45] <codecaine> apace thats not the second version
[08:45] <bluefox83> Flight, it will download a list of packages in the repositories and info about the packages
[08:45] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: which is best? Intel or Amd?
[08:45] <WooD> zoidi79: do you know what is the name or model of that cisco box ?
[08:46] <ivoks> codecaine: hm... wait a second
[08:46] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: amd64 bit is nice...
[08:46] <ivoks> codecaine: it should work, there's nothing else that you should do
[08:46] <ivoks> codecaine: it offers you download?
[08:46] <aeroSoul> because of its power saving modes for example.... isnt as power hungry as intel cpus afaik
[08:47] <zoidi79> WooD: it's not a box - it's a phone - probably doesn't do PSTN - name is cit200
[08:47] <codecaine> yea
[08:47] <codecaine> the php file
[08:47] <WooD> ho I know that phone.. your right it does but not the PSTN Phone...
[08:48] <ivoks> is that public server?
[08:48] <codecaine> when I do /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[08:48] <ivoks> or in local network
[08:48] <codecaine> doesn't show any status
[08:48] <Jaak_> can anyone redirect me to documentation on how to get my laptop to switch (properly) between vga out and his own screen, right now it just clones it, but i need it to switch, and use other res...
[08:48] <ivoks> codecaine: it doesn't do anything?
[08:48] <GaiaX11> aeroSoul: but expensive.
[08:48] <codecaine> nope
[08:48] <ivoks> codecaine: what about /etc/init.d/apache restart?
[08:48] <aeroSoul> GaiaX11: there amd64 3200 cpus for 66 here... not too expensive imo
[08:48] <codecaine> thats not install
[08:49] <codecaine> ed
[08:49] <ivoks> hm...
[08:49] <codecaine> doesn't exist there
[08:49] <codecaine> should I install that?
[08:49] <jp> Jaak_: sorry I don't know the answer to your question, but did you check www.linux-laptop.net? It has a lot of laptop-specific information
[08:49] <ivoks> codecaine: what's in /etc/default/apache2?
[08:49] <Jaak_> jp, thanks
[08:50] <jp> Jaak_: I believe that what you're trying to do is dependent on your graphics driver. I suggest you start there, or maybe grep your X configuration file for 'mirror' or some such... good luck!
[08:50] <ivoks> codecaine: it should be NO_START=0
[08:50] <TuOki^> I have very noob problem: In some reason i can't get my java classpath working . I have set in .bashrc-file command: export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/pathtomyjarfile/file.jar
[08:50] <codecaine> thats not a direcotry
[08:50] <codecaine> but I see apache2 file there
[08:50] <ivoks> codecaine: that's file
[08:50] <codecaine> it says 1
[08:50] <codecaine> in the file
[08:50] <TuOki^> but java doesn't find those jar files
[08:50] <ivoks> eh... it should be 0
[08:50] <jp> Tu0ki: after you open a new terminal, if you `echo $CLASSPATH`, do you see what you want or just the default classpath?
[08:51] <TuOki^> jes
[08:51] <TuOki^> yes
[08:51] <ivoks> codecaine: change to 0 and restart apache
[08:51] <codecaine> ok did it
[08:51] <TuOki^> i see all what those jars
[08:51] <Locke2> k im installing 6.06 on a dell optiplex gx110, right now it's giving Buffer I/O errors on hdc, should i let it continue, or stop and swap HDs?
[08:51] <ivoks> Locke2: that disk will probably die soon :)
[08:51] <jp> Tu0Ki: if you see the right thing there, then the problem is either that whatever starts Java overrides your CLASSPATH (unlikely), there's a typo in the path, or that jar file is not what the java program was really looking for... I can't think of any other reason
[08:52] <codecaine> I saw a status this time
[08:52] <codecaine> but when I went to the php page
[08:52] <codecaine> it asked to download it again
[08:52] <ivoks> codecaine: firefox?
[08:52] <aeroSoul> Locke2: hdc is the cdrom isnt it?
[08:52] <codecaine> swiftfox
[08:52] <codecaine> firefox
[08:52] <ivoks> codecaine: do shift+ctrl+r
[08:52] <Locke2> aeroSoul- you know, i guess it might be
[08:52] <jp> Tu0Ki: you can try investigating the first option by doing `which java` to find which java you're using (it's most likely going to be a script) and then check what that script does
[08:52] <Locke2> weird
[08:52] <aeroSoul> Locke2: how many hds in that machine?
[08:53] <Locke2> the disc i burned checked out fine last night
[08:53] <Locke2> just one
[08:53] <codecaine> did that
[08:53] <RedGhost> Hey guys, where can I get one of those powered by Ubuntu Linux stickers for my laptop?
[08:53] <Locke2> its a standard pos
[08:53] <codecaine> same thing
[08:53] <aeroSoul> Locke2: hdc is most probably the cdrom...
[08:53] <Locke2> yeah
[08:53] <Locke2> i guess i should swap drives then
[08:53] <ivoks> codecaine: open terminal and enter 'w3m http://path to your page'
[08:53] <aeroSoul> worth a try
[08:54] <TuOki^> i use java-1.5.0_06
[08:54] <ivoks> TuOki^: you could've just installed it from repos
[08:55] <TuOki^> if i define same path to using -cp option i manage to java find needed jars
[08:55] <codecaine> I see it
[08:55] <codecaine> in it
[08:55] <codecaine> :)
[08:55] <Wiseguy> only gcj comes in the repos though
[08:55] <codecaine> maybe its firefox
[08:55] <TuOki^> but example java -cp $CLASSPATH  stuf  doesn't work
[08:55] <jp> Tu0Ki: if you do: "   file `which java`  ", does it tell you it's a shell script?
[08:56] <Jaak_> there is linux distro for pda?
[08:56] <Jaak_> cool
[08:56] <codecaine> :/
[08:56] <ivoks> codecaine: then it's a firefox problem :)
[08:56] <Avagant|Sleep> still having sudo problems here.
[08:56] <TuOki^> which java ->  /usr/bin/java
[08:56] <ivoks> codecaine: just restart firefox
[08:56] <buzzy> i'm desperate! when i boot my ubuntu it says :Uncompressing linux...OK. booting the kernel... then it appears a black screen and nothing else: how can i restore my ubuntu?? (i have this problem since i have installed, maybe wrongly, nvidia drivers) here it is my syslog: http://rafb.net/paste/results/e6od8S81.html
[08:56] <codecaine> I did maybe come config file in it
[08:56] <Locke2> K cdrom swapped
[08:57] <jp> Tu0Ki: wait... $CLASSPATH contains the exact same thing that what you typed by hand, and java -cp <type by hand> works and java -cp $CLASSPATH doesn't work? Really?
[08:57] <ivoks> codecaine: it's cache
[08:57] <TuOki^> yes
[08:57] <Locke2> this one seems to be sounding better
[08:57] <ivoks> codecaine: try same page, but with / or without / in the end
[08:57] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: what problems?
[08:58] <codecaine> I cleared the cache
[08:58] <codecaine> works now
[08:58] <jp> buzzy: I remember that to recover from that I booted from my Ubuntu CD... then I had to do something with lilo but don't remember what (hopefully someone else here can help?)
[08:58] <codecaine> thanks ivoks!
[08:58] <ivoks> codecaine: np
[08:58] <buzzy> jp thanks
[08:58] <micael71> how do i see my ip on ubuntu 6
[08:58] <jp> Tu0Ki: does " echo $CLASSPATH " display *exactly* the same thing as what you typed by hand?
[08:58] <ivoks> micael71: ifconfig
[08:58] <buzzy> people can i recover my ubunut from installation cd?
[08:58] <ivoks> buzzy: depends on what's broken
[08:58] <codecaine> by the way what does this do
[08:59] <codecaine> sudo ln -s ../mods-available/php5.* .
[08:59] <ivoks> codecaine: it enables php5 in apache (ln is command for links, -s for creating symbolic link)
[08:59] <TuOki^> not excatly it includes more jar packages
[08:59] <codecaine> oh ok
[08:59] <codecaine> ty
[08:59] <ivoks> codecaine: available modules for apache are in /etc/apache2/mods-available
[08:59] <ivoks> codecaine: to enable it, you have to create simple file link in mods-enabled
[09:00] <Jaak_> anyone think i could run ubuntu on my pda?
[09:00] <micael71> ivoks thanks
[09:00] <bluefox83> possibly
[09:00] <codecaine> ah
[09:00] <TuOki^> i will provide you pastes at pastebin (moment)
[09:00] <kupesoft> Over an ssh session (with bash), I started a daemon that first forked, the parent returned, the child setsid()'d, then forked and the child-parent returned.  The child-child runs effectively as a daemon but when I quit the ssh session, my terminal window hangs.  What's up?
[09:01] <silent_scream> how can i add some extra fonts in xine? i.e. arial and arial black?
[09:01] <Jof> hi
[09:01] <ivoks> Jaak_: if your PDA has i386/amd64/sparc/ppc processor, then maybe :)
[09:01] <grub_booter> kupesoft: try nohup on the forked process - dunno if it'll help or not though...
[09:01] <Jof> i have a problem with opening irc links in firefox with xchat
[09:01] <buzzy> ivoks donno
[09:01] <buzzy> !!
[09:02] <Jof> Xchat opens when i klick on the link, but it does not connect to the server and chan
[09:02] <ivoks> buzzy: well, what doesn't work?
[09:02] <kupesoft> nohup?
[09:02] <ivoks> :( i don't use xchat
[09:02] <buzzy> i'm desperate! when i boot my ubuntu it says :Uncompressing linux...OK. booting the kernel... then it appears a black screen and nothing else: how can i restore my ubuntu?? (i have this problem since i have installed, maybe wrongly, nvidia drivers) here it is my syslog: http://rafb.net/paste/results/e6od8S81.html
[09:02] <buzzy> ivoks
[09:02] <jp> Tu0Ki: if the two are different, then I suspect that may be the source of the problem.
[09:02] <buzzy> read above
[09:02] <buzzy> :)
[09:02] <grub_booter> kupesoft: try man nohup
[09:03] <birdfish> Is the version of of apache2 installed with the LAMP configuration ssl enabled?
[09:03] <likewhoa54> I'm trying to install krb5-user and it keeps complaining about libkrb53 and libkadm55 not being installed/incorrect version....both are installed and of the correct versions 1.4.3-5 and it's saying "depends: = 1.4.3-5) but 1.4.3-5ubuntu0.1 is to be installed
[09:03] <likewhoa54> can anyone help get past this issue?
[09:03] <Jof> so what do you use ivoks
[09:03] <ivoks> buzzy: when grub says "Press Esc...bla...bla...bla", hit Esc
[09:03] <Jof> i think xchat is the best irc client
[09:03] <buzzy> then?
[09:03] <Jof> except mirc..
[09:03] <buzzy> ivoks?
[09:03] <bluefox83> mirc is limited
[09:03] <ivoks> buzzy: then hit 'e' and move, on the next menu, to kernel .... and hit 'e' again
[09:04] <ivoks> buzzy: delete splash and quiet and hit enter
[09:04] <buzzy> so ivoks?
[09:04] <ivoks> buzzy: then hit 'b'
[09:04] <buzzy> remaining "ro" ??
[09:04] <ivoks> buzzy: right
[09:04] <bluefox83> you can only use the mirc internal scripting language with it, in xchat you are free to use any scripting language so long as there's a plugin for it
[09:04] <Jof> does nobody else have the problem with opening irc links in xchat?
[09:04] <TuOki^> sorry i have to go
[09:04] <bluefox83> irc links?
[09:04] <ivoks> buzzy: this will help in identifying problem
[09:04] <Jof> in firefox
[09:04] <bluefox83> Jof, you're using edgy right?
[09:04] <Jof> yes
[09:04] <Jof> with breezy
[09:04] <Jof> i didn't have the problem
[09:05] <bluefox83> what O.o
[09:05] <collier> Hello, Can Someone help me with networking?

[09:05] <jp> Tu0Ki: if have to go; I'll be back later, ping me if you're still there and still need help
[09:05] <p0w4h> Hello. i have firefox and can't see words in Macromedia Flash player ?
[09:05] <Jof> i think thats the xchat-gnome
[09:05] <buzzy> ivoks right?
[09:05] <ivoks> buzzy: yes
[09:05] <Jof> its very crappy
[09:05] <buzzy> ok
[09:06] <bluefox83> Jof, ditch xchat-gnome and install regular ol xchat
[09:06] <froud> what command replaces update-modules if it is obsolete?
[09:06] <bluefox83> xchat-gnome blows
[09:06] <Jof> i did that already
[09:06] <Locke2> alright got live up and its formatting hda now
[09:06] <Jof> but i think its not completely removed
[09:06] <collier> How do I setup my router?
[09:06] <Jof> because the regular xchat has the same preferences as i had with xchat-gnome
[09:06] <bluefox83> collier, you might try googling your router. this is not a router help channel
[09:07] <andy101> collier: thats a very vague question, hence why noone answered
[09:07] <Lunar_Lamp> i have a problem i dont understand.  i confiugured my laptop to use alt+end to be XF86NextTrack - and it skisp track in amarok when any window is selected.  i have configured the "forward" arrow on my usb keyboard plugged into my laptop to be XF86NextTrack also, but it will only work when amarok is the focused window <== can anyone help here?
[09:07] <collier> k
[09:07] <bluefox83> Jof, that's true, so poke around in your url handlers and see if it's set to use firefox
[09:07] <frojnd> what can I do to open link which include streaming: Firefox doesn't know how to open this adress, becouse the protocol (mms) isn't associated with any program
[09:08] <Jaak_> what kind of processor is this : CPU Intel PXA270
[09:08] <Jof> bluefox83, can i qry you?
[09:08] <andy101> collier:  some routers you type their IP into web browser and use a web control panel (i used to have a belkin wifi)
[09:08] <dnel> Hi, when I try to configure my wlan connection, my computer will hang. I have used two usb wlan cards with different chipsets and both do the same. Can anyone direct me where to start diagnosing the cause?
[09:08] <brosnan> Jof: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Register_protocol
[09:08] <bluefox83> Jof, sure
[09:09] <andy101> frojnd: that mozillazine link was probably ment for you (though addressed to jof)
[09:09] <ivoks> that's it for today... take care
[09:09] <ivoks> bye
[09:11] <Jof> oh
[09:11] <Jof> i have to register for priv. massages :)
[09:11] <birdfish> Anyone know if apache2 comes with ssl support?
[09:11] <Jof> bluefox83, do you have also drapper installed?
[09:12] <bluefox83> O.o
[09:12] <silent_scream> how can i add some extra fonts in xine for the subs? i.e. arial and arial black?
[09:15] <holoton2> I'm looking to get a PCMCIA firewire card for my *buntu laptop; Anything I should be weary of, ie hardware support? Any specific reccomendations?
[09:16] <ubuntubob> hjjj
[09:17] <habeeb> For yet another time in my life, I did something extremely smart. I added the spacebar as the keyboard shortcut to something, accidentaly. I then removed it using the Backspace" but now, I cant use the spacebar :/
[09:17] <habeeb> How can I restore the default keyboard shortcuts? :(
[09:19] <tonyyarusso> holoton2: http://www.linux1394.org/ has a compatibility list.
[09:19] <holoton2> I'm looking to get a PCMCIA firewire card for my *buntu laptop; Anything I should be weary of, ie hardware support? Any specific reccomendations?
[09:19] <holoton2> nice, thanks tonny
[09:19] <holoton2> exactly what I was looking for!
[09:19] <shwag> What is generally better?  PCL6  or PostScript3
[09:20] <cpl-tnt44> need help with a wireless pcmcia card on ubuntu 6 plz
[09:20] <tonyyarusso> !wifi
[09:20] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:20] <jdrake> Would anyone happen to know if a graphite based lubricant would be safe to use on the hinges of a laptop screen?
[09:21] <tonyyarusso> cpl-tnt44: Start there if you haven't already ^^
[09:22] <silent_scream> how can i add some extra fonts in xine for the subs? i.e. arial and arial black?
[09:22] <zoidi79>  shwag: i don't think one is generally better than the other - if i had to choose, i'd take postscript, as just about every os speaks ps
[09:22] <cpl-tnt44> thanks tonyyarusso ..
[09:23] <Frem> Hey, I need to install Xubuntu on this oldish pIII, but all I have is the normal Ubuntu liveCD, and the CD rom for this machine is really, really slow. Is there a way to active the old text installer on the normal Ubuntu livedisk w/ out going through all the slow graphical bootup?
[09:23] <ubuntubob> Anyone know a good program for burning an iso?
[09:23] <bluefox83> wtf, mozilla now opens a terminal window when i tell it to open a url in a browser...wtf
[09:23] <habeeb> ubuntubob: cdrecord? <:
[09:23] <aeroSoul> Frem: you could download the ubuntu-server cd image
[09:24] <jdrake> ubuntubob: k3b is good I find
[09:24] <aeroSoul> Frem: after installation you'd have to type apt-get install kubuntu-desktop i think
[09:24] <ifrozen> hali
[09:24] <aeroSoul> xubuntu-desktop
[09:24] <bluefox83> er, xchat opens a terminal window instead of a browser..hwo the heck do i fix that?
[09:24] <bluefox83> *how
[09:24] <Frem> aeroSoul: this would mean downloading like 600mb, about the same as the iso.
[09:24] <Admiral_Chicago> ubuntubob, gnomebaker
[09:24] <cpl-tnt44> where can i find a working driver for my pcmcia wireless card ?
[09:25] <aeroSoul> Frem: i dont think it's 600mb... 200mb maybe
[09:25] <Admiral_Chicago> cpl-tnt44, did you try ndiswrapper?
[09:25] <Frem> aeroSoul: so why is the ISO 700mb?
[09:25] <ubuntubob> runing kde
[09:25] <cpl-tnt44> i havent tried anything ...
[09:26] <cpl-tnt44> im new to linux i just connected the pcmcia card and it didnt showed on the network setting so ... i guess i need a driver according to the guide
[09:27] <jmantra_> Hi I restarted my machine after running automatix and GNOME-panel crashed on me anybody have any ideas of what might have gone wrong?
[09:27] <Frem> aeroSoul: The xubuntu ISO is like 700mb. The server ISO is 400mb and the xubuntu-desktop packages are 200mb. I save little, if any, bandwith by doing what you suggested.
[09:27] <Nookie^> jmantra_ uninstall automatix and install easyubuntu... i had big problems also with automatix
[09:28] <cpl-tnt44> anyone help ?
[09:28] <aeroSoul> Frem: you wanted a installer without desktop right? thats ubuntu-server
[09:28] <jmantra_> anybody know how i can reinstall gnome?
[09:28] <Admiral_Chicago> ubuntubob, then use k3b
[09:28] <Frem> aeroSoul: I want an installer that does not boot gnome from a cd in an 8x cdrom drive.
[09:29] <Admiral_Chicago> also #kubuntu exists for KDE systems
[09:29] <bluefox83> how do i tell xchat what browser to use when i click "Open link in Browser"?
[09:29] <iratsu> what package creates /etc/network/interfaces?
[09:30] <Frem> aeroSoul: I also want to use the Ubuntu CDs I already have and not waste a third of my monthly bandwith allocation getting more.
[09:31] <aeroSoul> you could use that debian netinstall floppy disk -> ubuntu install hack that was mentioned here before =)
[09:31] <almimoni>  hi every body, i want php editor for linux
[09:31] <jdrake> I changed my hostname in /etc/hostname, but now sudo doesn't work because it says it can't resolve it. Any ideas on how to fix this without reverting the /etc/hostname?
[09:32] <xenoNfluX> almimoni, php editor?
[09:32] <jp> almioni: if you already use emacs, there's a PHP mode for emacs
[09:32] <almimoni> yes
[09:32] <xenoNfluX> almimoni, what he said, emacs....or you could try Aptana
[09:32] <bobmcbob> Where is the latest XGL tutorial? Im failing to find it on the forums :S
[09:32] <almimoni> what is better?
[09:32] <aeroSoul> jdrake: modify /etc/hosts maybe
[09:33] <xenoNfluX> Aptana is more in-depth.... code assist, browser compatibility checks, etc
[09:33] <jp> almioni: if you're not already using emacs, you could try jedit with the PHPParser plugin
[09:33] <jdrake> perfect, thank you
[09:33] <kyja> whats that cleanup command ? I thought it was sudo cleanup but I guess I am wrong
[09:33] <jp> ^ or Aptana
[09:33] <jp> kyja: what are you trying to do?
[09:33] <Admiral_Chicago> kyja, autoclean
[09:34] <kyja> ah
[09:34] <Avagant|Sleep> so this sudo problem i'm having.
[09:34] <cpl-tnt44> im fresh to ubuntu can some 1 plz tell me how to install ndiswrapper on a computer with no internet connection ?
[09:34] <almimoni> thx
[09:34] <Admiral_Chicago> apt-get autoclean
[09:34] <Avagant|Sleep> i can't even log into sudo to change sudo, does this mean i have to reinstall ubuntu?
[09:34] <kyja> sweet
[09:34] <jp> Avagant: did you try "chmod 4111 /usr/bin/sudo" ?
[09:34] <Avagant|Sleep> sire dod
[09:34] <Avagant|Sleep> sure did i mean
[09:35] <Avagant|Sleep> must be setuid root
[09:35] <kyja> jp, yeah think Admiral_Chicago gave me great info. just to make sure all things are fixed up clean and smooth.
[09:35] <Avagant|Sleep> it would really suck if i have to reinstall considering i just got everything exactly the way i want it.
[09:36] <fredrik> can anyone tell me what i am missing in the setup, if my wireless card has been recogniced in the connection properties but there are no signal at all
[09:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !wireless
[09:36] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:37] <jp> Avagant: are you talking to me? Is it me you call "dod" ?
[09:37] <ubuntubob> fredrik: I had a problem like that in windows
[09:37] <ubuntubob> the hardare was fucked
[09:37] <Avagant|Sleep> no i just typed that wrong, sorry jp.
[09:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !language
[09:37] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:37] <Admiral_Chicago> !language > ubuntubob
[09:37] <Avagant|Sleep> but yah so there's nothing i can do now?
[09:37] <ubuntubob> I think it means the aeriel is buggered
[09:38] <ubuntubob> sorry
[09:38] <Avagant|Sleep> i spent way too long doing all this crap and now i have to reinstall.
[09:38] <Avagant|Sleep> ....i'm seriously going to lose it.
[09:38] <spanky_> Are there any odities in the setup for job control with a remote session of Ubuntu? I have a machine which I SSH to and am unable to perform jobs in the background with this machine.  Is there a setting that needs changing to use job control properly for remote sessions?
[09:38] <jp> Avagant: you can become root by typing "su -", as I told you a while ago. Did you try that?
[09:39] <Avagant|Sleep> that doesn't work.
[09:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Avagant|Sleep: Backups are really simple to do...
[09:39] <Avagant|Sleep> i put in the password and it says not authenticated or something.
[09:39] <Avagant|Sleep> with su it would be my password right?
[09:39] <jp> Avagant: if you're talking to me you really need to prefix what you say with "jp:"
[09:39] <Avagant|Sleep> sorry jp
[09:39] <jp> Avagant: you need to type in the root password
[09:39] <jp> Avagant: when su asks you for it
[09:40] <Avagant|Sleep> jp: isn't it bash?
[09:40] <cpl-tnt44> eerrrr can some 1 guide me through installing wireless network pcmcia card ?
[09:40] <jp> Avagant: no... the root password is something that you had to specify when you installed ubuntu
[09:40] <cpl-tnt44> plz ! ^^^^^
[09:40] <tsw> jp: no, ubuntu comes without root password
[09:40] <Avagant|Sleep> see ya i put that in and it says it's not the right one.
[09:40] <Zaggynl> !wireless
[09:40] <aeroSoul> jp: dapper install doesnt ask for a root pw
[09:40] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:40] <jp> oh
[09:40] <jp> sorry Avagant
[09:41] <cpl-tnt44> Zaggynl , i already tried it didnt helped alot !
[09:41] <dumbnewbie> hi. i want to install ubuntu 6.06 on an already existing partition on my harddrive. and need to keep xp on the other one. and then he askes me about mount points. how do i proceed?
[09:41] <cpl-tnt44> Zaggynl , i need a closer guide since im new
[09:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Avagant|Sleep: I came in late, so sudo su doesnt accept your normal user password?
[09:41] <cipher> wanting to install 686 kernel... I added all the necessary
[09:41] <xenoNfluX> ubuntu DOES have a root password after install, its just a randomly generated one
[09:41] <Zaggynl> cpl-tnt44, I'm afraid I have near zero experience with wireless whatsoever :(
[09:41] <Zaggynl> I only know the basics
[09:41] <tsw> Avagant|Sleep: you need to either boot your machine to "safemode" and edit the file, or use live cd and mount the drive and edit the hostname back (or add it to hosts)
[09:41] <xenoNfluX> you need to do 'sudo passwd root' if you want to change it
[09:41] <cpl-tnt44> ok !
[09:41] <jp> Avagant: ok, well if the distro doesn't come with a root password and sudo is broken, you're in a bit of trouble. What I suggest you do (unless tsw or Aerosoul know better) is to boot into single-user mode to set a root password, and go from there
[09:42] <cipher> wanting to install 686 kernel... I added all the necessary packages, but not sure what to do next?
[09:42] <ivoks> xenoNfluX: no, it doesn't
[09:42] <tsw> or you can install dns server next to the machine and let it do the dns resolving
[09:42] <cpl-tnt44> someone , guide me through the steps of installing wireless pcmcia card  please ?
[09:42] <ivoks> xenoNfluX: check /etc/shadow
[09:42] <tsw> jp: anything you do without thinking about it gets you into trouble
[09:42] <StAfZe6> hi
[09:42] <Flimflam`> sup?
[09:42] <jp> xenonFlux: Avagant's problem is that his sudo is broken
[09:42] <xenoNfluX> ivoks, that won't help me, I already specified a root password
[09:42] <Jack_Sparrow> cpl-tnt44: SOmeone linked the info you need to use
[09:42] <Avagant|Sleep> i can't even get into sudo
[09:42] <xenoNfluX> jp, roger that
[09:43] <jp> tsw: well, see, I set a root password on my ubuntu box after install, I just had forgotten about that
[09:43] <ivoks> xenoNfluX: well, by default it looks like this: root:*:13355:0:99999:7:::
[09:43] <aeroSoul> Avagant|Sleep: what do you mean with "get into sudo"? you mean change user to root?
[09:43] <Flimflam`> good
[09:43] <StAfZe6> I'll find out
[09:43] <tsw> jp: youp, you can still brake your installation ;)
[09:43] <cpl-tnt44> Jack_Sparrow , i saw ... but the ink didnt helped
[09:43] <ivoks> what's the problem with sudo?
[09:43] <Avagant|Sleep> i cannot change to root to change anything
[09:43] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: ok, what's the problem?
[09:43] <cpl-tnt44> Jack_Sparrow , i need to to some actions that require more knowlage
[09:43] <tsw> Avagant|Sleep: as I just said, you need to modify the hostname back or add it to hosts file
[09:43] <cipher> Avagant|Sleep: have you tried sudo -i  ?
[09:43] <jp> Avagant: you can still save your install, but it'll be a bit of work
[09:43] <Jack_Sparrow> cpl-tnt44: Where do you get an error following that link
[09:43] <tsw> Avagant|Sleep: you can do that with live cd
[09:43] <matt8806suomi> hey i'm looking to use my logitech quickcam in ubuntu, can anyone help out with regard to setup
[09:43] <ivoks> oh, come on... guys
[09:44] <jp> Avagant: OK, you should probably go with whatever the others are saying, they seem to know more than me :) good luck!
[09:44] <ivoks> reboot the system and choose recovery mode
[09:44] <Avagant|Sleep> yah sudo -i doesn't work
[09:44] <ivoks> then fix what you've broken
[09:44] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: what's the error?
[09:44] <spanky_> Hey guys. Anyone know of any reason why job control on my system might be wonky? It's a remote ssh session and I start the process $ process &     but it doesn't run it just sits there in suspended mode. Anybody else had this?

[09:45] <matt8806suomi> thanks Jack_Sparrow
[09:45] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[09:45] <Avagant|Sleep> i think it's because i changed permissions on /usr/bin without thinking last night
[09:46] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: listen to me
[09:46] <Avagant|Sleep> i had a long night guys.
[09:46] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: would you?
[09:46] <Avagant|Sleep> yes
[09:46] <t3rmin4t0r> open http://flickr.com/javascript/photo_notes.js.v1.14 and scroll round a couple of times
[09:46] <aeroSoul> Avagant|Sleep: you did chmod -R on /usr? :P
[09:46] <ivoks> reboot machine and choose recovery mode in grub
[09:46] <Avagant|Sleep> yes
[09:46] <xenoNfluX> Avagant, you could always hit your up arrow for a while and perhaps what you did to cause the problem is in there
[09:46] <ivoks> then fix /usr/bin/sudo
[09:46] <aeroSoul> hehe this happened to me too when i was a beginner =)
[09:46] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: what's the output of ls -dl /usr/bin/sudo now?

[09:47] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: that's wrong
[09:47] <Avagant|Sleep> i'm seriously in tears.
[09:47] <Avagant|Sleep> I know it's wrong!
[09:47] <t3rmin4t0r> Avagant|Sleep: what were you trying to do anyway ?
[09:48] <Avagant|Sleep> I can't download or change to root or anything, I have no idea what I did.
 cpl-tnt44: Where do you get an error following that link ??? in the 1st stage ...
[09:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Avagant|Sleep: What did you do to cause the problem
[09:48] <ivoks> Avagant|Sleep: reboot your machine in rescue mode and do chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo
[09:48] <Jack_Sparrow> cpl-tnt44: what error?
[09:48] <cpl-tnt44> Jack , i dont know how to get the driver i need to make it work lets not talk about installing...
[09:48] <ivoks> then reboot back and your sudo will be fixed
[09:48] <cpl-tnt44> no errors
[09:48] <Avagant|Sleep> is that ctrl alt f1?
[09:48] <cipher> ivoks: 4755? you mean 755?
[09:49] <lestat> .
[09:49] <cpl-tnt44> in the wifi docs it says if your device isnt showing it probanlly dont have the correct driver...
[09:49] <cpl-tnt44> Jack , If your device is not listed in this area, then your wireless device does not have a working a functioning driver. To troubleshoot and set up your device with a driver see need to set up wiki link to move forward with driver
[09:49] <cpl-tnt44> what is  wiki link ???
[09:49] <Jack_Sparrow> cpl-tnt44: How can you get an error on the first page? Do you know what wireless card you have?

[09:58] <matt8806suomi> logitech webcam viewer?? anyone know of an app??
[09:58] <IceTox> Does only ndiswrapper work for wireless drivers? I need to install a usb speaker driver. (windows driver)
[09:58] <cpl-tnt44> gnomefreak where ?
[09:58] <gnomefreak> man_id_unknown: them = gtk libs
[09:58] <Avagant|Sleep> although the /usr/bin/sudo went from being red to light green print

[10:07] <tonedahl> I hate bitchx in tty1 :p
[10:08] <redstarr> any
[10:09] <tonedahl> Please? :(
[10:09] <bocoup> i have no clue
[10:09] <jp> tonedahl: I'm not running ubuntu right now so I'm not the best person to help, but I think the first thing to try is to check the X log files to see what the error is
[10:09] <IceTox> Does anyone here know about any program installing windows drivers to linux?
[10:10] <tonedahl> jp, but X must be working since it is able to show the login..?
[10:10] <Zaggynl> IceTox, I'm not sure what you mean
[10:10] <jp> tonedahl: or you can just type startx and I think the errors will be displayed on the screen (you can do that on a diff console so you don't have to close bitchx)
[10:10] <tonyyarusso> tonedahl: I honestly don't know, but it's either an X problem or a gdm problem, so you either need to change your X config or reinstall one of those is my guess.
[10:10] <naut> I've just had a bit of a weird event with our ubuntu server
[10:11] <tonedahl> tonyyarusso, I've reinstalled and dpkg-reconfigured both :(
[10:11] <jp> tonedahl: good point. Well, if startx works then you know it's a gdm problem. If it doesn't, then it's probably a X problem
[10:11] <jp> tonedahl: did you change your .xinit file recently?
[10:11] <redstarr> how do you check which version of ubuntu you have?
[10:11] <Zaggynl> winver
[10:11] <Zaggynl> ..no wait
[10:11] <jp> I mean, .xinitrc
[10:11] <matt8806suomi> how do i update to IPv6
[10:11] <naut> "Badness in __kfree_skb at net/core/skbuff.c:334"
[10:11] <EsaN> my Logitech Bluetooth mouse and keyboard works short time when Dapper starts.. at login screen they suddendly stop working... i have to unplug and replug to get them work again
[10:11] <IceTox> Zaggynl: well, I've got a webcam product which obviously has no linux drivers at all. However, I've got the windows driver cd. Is it possible to use the windows drivers in ubuntu somehow?
[10:11] <tonedahl> jp, not that I know of...
[10:12] <ivoks> redstarr: cat /etc/issue
[10:12] <Zaggynl> IceTox, don't think so
[10:12] <Cheep-cheep> XD
[10:12] <naut> plus a bunch of stuff apparently relating to sockets
[10:12] <IceTox> tonedahl: veldig norsk navn du har? :)
[10:12] <jp> tonedahl: ok. Too bad, that would be a good candidate for the breakage ;)

[10:12] <optimusprime> can I extract .zip files in Dapper?
[10:12] <naut> The server hung on reboot, I had to do a hard reset
[10:12] <jp> tonedahl: try startx, let us know what that does
[10:12] <Zaggynl> optimusprime, yep
[10:12] <tonedahl> jp, okay! Start X prob. gave me the error
[10:12] <Cheep-cheep> You all get big hugs and smooches for that one, or handshakes whichever you prefer.
[10:12] <naut> seems ok now, but it's still got me worried
[10:13] <ivoks> Cheep-cheep: there, you see...
[10:13] <tonedahl> jp, it cant write to /var. Its full..?
[10:13] <jp> Cheep-cheep: congratulations! I'm  happy for you :)
[10:13] <shido> Hello, suddenly i got a "Debian" submenu in my main applications menu...and this Debian submenu only has the same apps in the main menu...so..how can i remove this submenu?
[10:13] <optimusprime> do I need to download something?
[10:13] <Cheep-cheep> XD
[10:13] <naut> Does that error message mean anything to anyone?
[10:13] <Cheep-cheep> I was so upset, I need a ciggarette guys seriously
[10:13] <ivoks> shido: remove 'menu' package
[10:13] <Cheep-cheep> I was like 2 seconds from tears. Haha

[10:21] <naut> and repeat with minor variations
[10:21] <ladydoor> Avagant: it concentrates a lot on eyecandy, like gnome, but it's often called more "windows-friendly." originally, there was a linux schizm over it, because it used the then-nonfree QT binary packages--but now they're no longer non-free, so the point is moot.
[10:21] <Avagant> Is there anything different about kde because there's alot of reference in my system monitor to it.
[10:21] <britt> sudo is complaining about my timestamp when using sudo to do root commands, is there anyway to 'reset' the timestamp on sudo
[10:21] <britt> ?
[10:21] <Avagant> so how would i call up kde?
[10:21] <Avagant> and would my apps run on it?
[10:21] <jp> Avagant: you'd do something like "apt-get install kde"

[10:35] <jp> supermiguel: there is very little difference. In my opinion, Ubuntu tends to have more up-to-date stable packages, and the community's  abit nicer. But if you ask in #debian you may get the opposite point of view ;)
[10:35] <ivoks> micael71: edit /etc/vsftpd.conf
[10:35] <Flannel> britt: you don't need root, just do a sudo -k then that should clear out your timestamp
[10:35] <tRSS> how do I fix my grub/boot.ini to boot ubuntu again?
[10:35] <bigbadgoat> help me. I accidently deleted my top panel
[10:35] <ivoks> micael71: file is nicely commented
[10:35] <cipher> britt: 6.06.1 install from livecd will be... depends on what you used to install
[10:35] <micael71> ivoks like the bullet ftp server
[10:35] <WhiteNoise> rawler, does 'sudo hdparm /dev/hda | grep dma' show dma as on (substitute your drive for /dev/hda, if necc.)?
[10:35] <Flannel> bigbadgoat: right click, add panel, right click, add to panel, add all your stuff ;)
[10:35] <jman8888> How can i add more screen resolutions?
[10:35] <britt> okay
[10:35] <supermiguel> any one using ubuntu .10
[10:35] <supermiguel> ?
[10:35] <supermiguel> 6.10
[10:35] <CrazedNewb> cipher: I don't know. :-(
[10:35] <mzhang> someone recommend me a good music player that is similar to xmms?
[10:36] <ivoks> supermiguel: yes, why?
[10:36] <tRSS> amarok rocks!
[10:36] <bigbadgoat> theres no way to get it back so l can manage my knetworkmanager again?
[10:36] <rawler> hdparm shows 24-25MB/s, i've tried switching to XFS to avoid too much fraqmentation, but none of it has helped much..
[10:36] <steamR> jman8888: Xorg -configure
[10:36] <supermiguel> is better than 6.06?
[10:36] <britt> tried sudo -K and sudo -k and both dumped me out with the timestamp thing
[10:36] <ivoks> supermiguel: not yet
[10:36] <britt> lemme try getting to root
[10:36] <Flannel> bigbadgoat: that is how you get it out
[10:36] <mzhang> tRSS: amarok is too fancy for me, I want simplistic ones.
[10:36] <rawler> WhiteNoise: yes, DMA is active, multcount as well..
[10:36] <bigbadgoat> there has to be an easier way
[10:36] <Avagant> GRUB!
[10:36] <Avagant> haha
[10:36] <Flannel> britt: you don't need root.  sudo -k just by itself, not with a command
[10:36] <supermiguel> why
[10:36] <cipher> CazedNewb: did you let the installer delete everything or did you manually partition your drive?
[10:36] <tRSS> ~grub
[10:36] <tRSS> !grub
[10:36] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:36] <tobyaustralia> Ive added a line to the crontab (sudo nano /etc/crontab) but it doesn't seem to do anything. is there an error log? any suggestions?
[10:36] <Avagant> ~grub is my life saver.
[10:36] <ivoks> supermiguel: it's under development
[10:36] <jman8888> steamR, It says its already being used..
[10:36] <georgy> rawler,: rythmbox ?
[10:36] <Avagant> XMMS is the best btw.
[10:37] <jp> mzhang: there are xmms interfaces that hide the main xmms window and just show for example a thing in your top panel. Is that what you're looking for?
[10:37] <rawler> georgy: huh?
[10:37] <Avagant> How do you install xmms interfaces?
[10:37] <Paddy_EIRE> how can I use remote desktop to control my friends comp, I wanna install a game for him and configure the game settings and the like
[10:37] <ladydoor> Avagant: is there anything in the manpage?
[10:37] <ivoks> i would say that audacious is better than xmms
[10:37] <jp> Avagant: generally, apt-get install <name of the xmms proggy>
[10:37] <CrazedNewb> cipher: It hasn't done anything yet. I thought it was going to partition the free space, but it's failing to create free space, it says.
[10:37] <jman8888> when i try xorg -configure it says Server is already active for display 0
[10:37] <steamR> jman8888: u must do it from an non-x terminal. Press ctrl+alt+F2, thenn issue sudo killall gdm, then try
[10:37] <britt> i dont know what else to do
[10:37] <Avagant> I didn't like Audacious
[10:38] <britt> i made it to root
[10:38] <georgy> rawler : sorry, I'm wrong
[10:38] <Avagant> Then again I'm going for the whole "Looks like winamp" thing.
[10:38] <jman8888> steamR, Ok.
[10:38] <cipher> CazedNewb: if you haven't reached a question about partitions, it might not be seeing your drive at all
[10:38] <britt> and ran sudo -K and i'm still getting the error.
[10:38] <Flannel> britt: you don't need root.  Simply "sudo -k" no commands, no nothing, just that on it's own.
[10:38] <cpl-tnt44> Ladydoor : U there ?
[10:38] <cipher> CazedNewb: have you tried looking in your system's BIOS to see what it finds? Are you using dapper?
[10:38] <rawler> georgy: ok, then.. :) Rhythmbox is quite nice, though.. :)
[10:38] <britt> Flannel: I get the timestamp error again
[10:38] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: yeah. did you say something?
[10:38] <mzhang> jp: not exactly, xmms does not display CJK characters correctly, so I would prefer another software.
[10:38] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: tell your friend to install vino
[10:38] <collier> I installed Frostwire, and Its under Applications/Internet but when I click it, NOTHING happens.. Can someone help???//
[10:38] <CrazedNewb> cipher: I have reached it. I'm on to the "prepare disk space" step.
[10:38] <Flannel> britt: Get out of root, get back to your own user.
[10:39] <britt> done
[10:39] <cipher> britt:  k does "Revoke user's sudo permissions. Similar to -K, but changes user's timestamp to the Epoch instead of revoking it."
[10:39] <rambo3> britt, : sudo -K
[10:39] <cpl-tnt44> ladydoor , yes once i installed it , how can i wire it to my wireless card
[10:39] <Avagant> Whoa sound!
[10:39] <ladydoor> mzhang: there are a lot of muxic players out there.
[10:39] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: do I nedd it aswell
[10:39] <Avagant> XMMS:
[10:39] <mzhang> ladydoor: mind naming some?
[10:39] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: no, but he probably allready has it installed
[10:39] <Avagant> Is there a script for Konversation that shows what you are now playing anymore?
[10:39] <collier> I installed Frostwire, and Its under Applications/Internet but when I click it, NOTHING happens.. Can someone help???//
[10:39] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: please read the manual--as i said, most of the information is in the manpage. if you need any clarification on something specific in there, feel free to ask :-)

[10:40] <ESCulapio_> Help My please rendering
[10:40] <cipher> CazedNewb: do you have an option to manually partition the drive(s)?
[10:40] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: i dont have it installed, so it is ikely he does not either
[10:40] <Flannel> britt: try sudo -K
[10:40] <ESCulapio_> Help My please withrendering
[10:40] <Avagant> Thats for the remote desktop stuff.
[10:40] <ESCulapio_> Help My please with rendering

[10:41] <tuskernini> i there all.. i have a question.. in GAIM IRC, is there a way to IDENTIFY your nick to the NICSERV by default?
[10:41] <jp> britt: how about just setting you clock to that time? It'll work then ;)
[10:41] <cipher> CazedNewb: I'd check your drive config in the BIOS.. is your drive sata or ide or scsi? if sata, is it mapping to the right ide channel?
[10:41] <cpl-tnt44> ladydoor , quastion,,,
[10:41] <collier> No one knows the answer to my question??/
[10:41] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: alt+f2 and then enter vino-preferences

[10:41] <Flannel> jp: that wont work, I mean, it'llw ork, but he'll never be able to set it back to real time
[10:41] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: shoot!
[10:41] <steamR> How can i make sun's java the system default? I've copied the files to /usr/java and tried modifying the /etc/jvm file, but it does not show up as an alternative when doing update-alternatives --configure-java... Please! I'm sick of launching java apps thru terminal...
[10:41] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: got it
[10:41] <philc> firefox always opens .html files in the same window on some other desktop. How can I make firefox give me a new window when I click on an html file from nautilus?
[10:42] <cipher> CazedNewb: do you have one hdd and one cd/dvd?
[10:42] <Flannel> !tell steamR about java
[10:42] <cpl-tnt44> ladydoor : after installing the ndiswrapper how do i use it to clearfy it as the driver for my wireless card...
[10:42] <Avagant> Whoa people.
[10:42] <cpl-tnt44> aint no guide for it ^^^^^^^^
[10:42] <Flannel> steamR: you don't need to do any manual copying, just install the package
[10:42] <CrazedNewb> cipher: ide, and one, and two.
[10:42] <britt> yeah i dont know why its not working
[10:42] <tuskernini> collier, sorry... try to type frostwire in the terminal
[10:42] <bigbadgoat> how do I restore my top panel so it I can adjust network manager and whatnot.
[10:43] <britt> doesnt make much sense at all, but I *KNOW* that deleting the user and adding the user isnt the solution
[10:43] <Agrajag> tuskernini: set up a repeating buddy pounce to nickserv that says "identify <password>" when you log in
[10:43] <cipher> britt: you've done sudo -v?
[10:43] <Flimflam`> yo
[10:43] <StAfZe6> hey
[10:43] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: now what do I do
[10:43] <steamR> Flannel: I downloaded the self-extractor from sun, and copied the extracted files to /usr/java, changed path, so it works in console, but not in system as in generel...
[10:43] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: vncviewer IP_ADD_OF_YOUR_FRIEND
[10:44] <tuskernini> agrajag,  thanks will try
[10:44] <cpl-tnt44> aint no guide for it ^^^^^^^^
[10:44] <cpl-tnt44> ladydoor : after installing the ndiswrapper how do i use it to clearfy it as the driver for my wireless card...
[10:44] <Flannel> steamR: right, download the java from the ubuntu repositories
[10:44] <britt> britt@ibook:~$ sudo ifconfig
[10:44] <britt> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: Oct  2 21:12:15 2006
[10:44] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: well, as it says in there, you need to point it to your driver's inf file with sudo ndiswrapper -i /path/to/driver, first, then do sudo ndiswrapper -l (it *should* say "Driver present, hardware present" or something like that), then sudo ndiswrapper -m, then sudo modprobe ndiswrapper...
[10:44] <britt> it doesnt matter what command i pass, it wont work
[10:44] <steamR> gonna give that a go Flannel
[10:44] <cipher> CazedNewb: attach just your ide drive and only one cd-rom to your mobo, put the ide drive as master on primary channel, and cdrom as master on secondary channel... hardwire master with jumpers
[10:44] <collier> It says Frostwire: command not found
[10:44] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: so I do "vncviewer 192.XXX.X.X" or whatever his ip is
[10:44] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: then take down your wired interface (sudo ifdown eth0) and bring up your wireless (sudo ifup wlan0)
[10:44] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: yes
[10:44] <cipher> CazedNewb: make sure SMART is enabled in your BIOS if it isn't... that will help with newer drives
[10:45] <Flannel> collier: it's probably a f not a F
[10:45] <zeus77> can someone give me an example /etc/network/interfaces?  just for a simple wired lan card.  i wiped out those lines when i install networkmanager, but i now need them since gnome (and nm-applet) won't load.
[10:45] <Paddy_EIRE> k, cheers :) err whats a good way of getting his IP
[10:45] <tuskernini> collier, then frostwire is not installed...
[10:45] <collier> yes it is
[10:45] <collier> its under
[10:45] <CrazedNewb> cipher: That is how I'm set.
[10:45] <collier> Applications / Internet
[10:45] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: 'ifconfig'
[10:45] <Flannel> collier: frostwire not Frostwire
[10:45] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[10:45] <collier> yeah
[10:45] <cipher> CazedNewb: if that helps, attach your 2nd cdrom as a slave to the other cdrom before doing the install
[10:45] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: if any of that needs clarifying, i'd be glad to do so :-)
[10:45] <Agrajag> guys, I think you're forgetting something. Paddy_EIRE: are you behind NAT? and is your friend?
[10:46] <ivoks> zeus77: if you have dhcp, just run 'dhclient ethX'
[10:46] <georgy> zeus77,  :iface eth0 inet dhc
[10:46] <collier> bash: Frostwire: command not found
[10:46] <cipher> CazedNewb: that way, it will be easier to have the installer mount it for you
[10:46] <Flannel> collier: frostwire not Frostwire
[10:46] <anon32> how do I allow non-root access to my NTFS partition (in read-only mode)
[10:46] <georgy> zeus : dhcp
[10:46] <ivoks> zeus77: where X is 0,1,2,3 or ...
[10:46] <w30> bigbadgoat, go to your bottom panel right click on it and  choose add panel then right click on the new panel properties and change it to be a top panel.
[10:46] <Flannel> !tell anon32 about ntfs
[10:46] <Flimflam`> interest
[10:46] <britt> ARRGGGHHHH
[10:46] <CrazedNewb> cipher: Ok, I'm going to go try. Thanks.
[10:46] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: we are both using broadband routers which use DHCP
[10:46] <anon32> thanks
[10:46] <anon32> !fuse
[10:46] <cpl-tnt44> ladydoor :  can u poing me to the specific page u found ?
[10:46] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[10:46] <collier> Java exec found in PATH. Verifying...
[10:46] <collier> OOPS, you don't seem to have a valid JRE. FrostWire works best with Sun JRE available at http://www.java.com
[10:46] <collier> OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /usr/lib/  hierarchy
[10:46] <collier> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.4.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[10:46] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: then you have a problem
[10:46] <tuskernini> collier, ... did you do $ sudo apt-get install frostwire
[10:46] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: what page are you talking about?
[10:46] <zeus77> perfect, thanks.
[10:46] <collier> I need to install java?
[10:46] <britt> i dont want to reinstall linux over this little thing
[10:46] <Agrajag> Paddy_EIRE: you'll need to have him forwared port 5900 to his computer then.
[10:47] <cipher> britt: you mentioned you don't have the root password anymore or you never entered one?
[10:47] <jman8888> Whoever told me to do Xorg  -configure. I couldnt get it to work.
[10:47] <Phoul> britt, why you need to install?
[10:47] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: how would that be done
[10:47] <ivoks> britt: what's the problem?
[10:47] <collier> I need java, How do I install that?
[10:47] <renemartinez> hello
[10:47] <tuskernini> collier, i have not worked with frostwire so i do not know what you need...
[10:47] <collier> It says I need java
[10:47] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: port forwarding? you have to do that on your router... this has nothing to do with linux
[10:47] <Avagant> Get Nicotine!
[10:47] <Agrajag> Paddy_EIRE: it's different depending on the router. He'll have to find out what he has and how to do it.
[10:47] <Phoul> britt, ?
[10:47] <Avagant> !Nicotine
[10:48] <britt> i fixed it, i just did sudo -k over and over and over again until it worked
[10:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about Nicotine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:48] <Paddy_EIRE> oh, ntl
[10:48] <britt> i think i got it
[10:48] <cipher> britt: odd
[10:48] <tuskernini> collier, either go to the synaptic package manager and search for java... or try $ sudo apt-get install java
[10:48] <georgy> collier : sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[10:48] <froud> anyone know if ubuntu kernels should support IPSec out the box?
[10:48] <Avagant> Nicotine > all
[10:48] <Flannel> !tell collier about java
[10:48] <britt> nevermind
[10:48] <tonyyarusso> Can samba share files with a windows machine on ext3, or does your share have to be a Windows-readable filesystem?
[10:48] <tuskernini> o yes you need the whole shebang..
[10:48] <Paddy_EIRE> ivoks: how come win can do this without configuring port forwarding and linux cant
[10:48] <Phoul> !tell me about nvidia
[10:48] <Flannel> tonyyarusso: nope, samba takes care of it
[10:49] <Phoul> !tell phoul about nvidia
[10:49] <Avagant> !tell collier about Nicotine
[10:49] <cipher> and here ivoks was telling *me* not to play with the bots :-/
[10:49] <tonyyarusso> Flannel: Okay, I think that does away with my last reason to have a fat32 partition then.
[10:49] <ablyss> is there a cron editor that comes with ubuntu?
[10:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about Nicotine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:49] <ivoks> Paddy_EIRE: windows need port forwarind too for that
[10:49] <Agrajag> Paddy_EIRE: how do you do it in windows?
[10:49] <Agrajag> You're eithe rforwarding a port or somehow doing NAT traversal
[10:49] <Paddy_EIRE> remote assistance
[10:49] <Agrajag> remote assistance probably uses NAT traversal somehow
[10:49] <Paddy_EIRE> then use the messenger to invite....no mention of ports
[10:50] <ivoks> ah...
[10:50] <we2by> hello
[10:50] <Agrajag> ah, it uses UPNP
[10:50] <jp> Agrajag: there's a protocol that allows you to ask your router to forward a port for you. Windows probably uses that (don't remember what it's called)
[10:50] <steamR> Paddy_EIRE: Because Windows allows passthru of Upnp
[10:50] <Agrajag> jp: UPNP
[10:50] <we2by> is there a music player like rythmbox but use less ram?
[10:50] <Agrajag> we2by: mpd?
[10:50] <Paddy_EIRE> steamR: oh,
[10:50] <we2by> what's mpd?
[10:50] <jp> that's right. UPNP is probably why you don't need to setup port forwarding yourself on windows (it does it for you)
[10:50] <Agrajag> it's not quite like rhythmbox, but it's easy on ram
[10:50] <Avagant> XMMS
[10:50] <we2by> Agrajag, what is the name?
[10:51] <Avagant> I'm going to spam xmms.
[10:51] <Avagant> Haha
[10:51] <Agrajag> we2by: music player daemon. it runs in the background and you use a separate client to connect to it
[10:51] <we2by> nah, xmms is not working very well with beryl
[10:51] <Avagant> beryl?
[10:51] <we2by> yea, compiz
[10:51] <Avagant> bah bah beryl?
[10:51] <collier> Do I have to download java first?
[10:51] <steamR> Paddy_EIRE: You can manually forward ports in Linux to make it work
[10:51] <Avagant> !beryl
[10:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beryl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:51] <Paddy_EIRE> steamR: how would i go about that
[10:51] <we2by> Avagant, is it a new name for compiz (xgl)
[10:51] <steamR> Paddy_EIRE: google about on Linux port forwarding
[10:51] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[10:51] <britt> since i have a root account, can i do a dpkg --purge on sudo and apt-get it again?
[10:51] <Paddy_EIRE> cheers guys :)
[10:51] <Agrajag> Paddy_EIRE: it's different depending on your router. This has nothing to do with linux.
[10:52] <Avagant> compiz?
[10:52] <georgy> collier : no, just download it
[10:52] <ivoks> steamR: but his router isn't linux

[10:52] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[10:52] <Agrajag> ivoks: well, it might be linux anyway, but that's not the point
[10:52] <ivoks> right
[10:52] <Avagant> I guess I'll never know...
[10:52] <steamR> Agrajag: It isn't the router, cause it worked on windows in Upnp mode
[10:52] <Agrajag> steamR: so what? vino doesn't use upnp to my knowledge
[10:52] <collier> which one do I downlaoad RPM or self-extracting file?
[10:52] <Agrajag> the port will have to be forwarded
[10:53] <georgy> collier : ?
[10:53] <steamR> as i said
[10:53] <Avagant> !beagle
[10:53] <amonkey> how can i get synaptic to show me only packages from a certain repo? i tried the orgin filter, but that didn't seem to work.
[10:53] <collier> where do I download java?
[10:53] <ubotu> beagle: indexing and search tool for your personal data. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.6-1ubuntu5 (dapper), package size 1208 kB, installed size 3992 kB
[10:53] <Avagant> That sounds interesting.
[10:53] <Flannel> !tell collier about java
[10:53] <sureshot> jack_sparrow are you in the house my friend
[10:53] <steamR> If NAT is involved, you must configure both client and router
[10:53] <ladydoor> cpl-tnt44: again, what page are you talking about that i supposedly found?
[10:53] <jtholmes> !help

[10:53] <georgy> collier : you are under ubuntu ?
[10:53] <steamR> but this is REALLY off topic
[10:54] <steamR> hopefully he's over Ubuntu (chuckles)
[10:55] <collier> yes
[10:55] <britt> well i have enough dependencies, that removing sudo isnt going to work
[10:55] <georgy> steamR : French expression
[10:55] <kaning> hi
[10:55] <collier> I dont see java.bin under Add/Remove Apps
[10:55] <ladydoor> britt: again, you might try sudo dpkg-reconfigure sudo
[10:55] <ivoks> britt: why would you remove sudo?
[10:55] <ladydoor> britt: *or rather root@box:~$ dpkg-reconfigure sudo
[10:55] <Genix> can someone help me with installing aiglx and compiz on an amd64 system?
[10:55] <kaning> trying to get a windows XP machine to browse a samba share but ii keep getting a username and password prompt
[10:55] <cpk2> i had a problem caused by sudo last night, I had something zombie and then sudo broke =\
[10:55] <ivoks> ladydoor: apt-get --reinstall install sudo?
[10:55] <Code-E> the iron
[10:55] <kaning> which always fails
[10:55] <georgy> collier: sun-java5-jre
[10:55] <cpk2> its hard to fix a problem without root
[10:56] <ladydoor> ivoks: that too
[10:56] <kaning> any help there
[10:56] <georgy> !ask
[10:56] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:56] <ladydoor> collier: you mean synaptic?
[10:56] <ivoks> kaning: smbpasswd is the tool you need
[10:56] <collier> whats it under
[10:56] <collier> synaptic
[10:56] <collier> or add/remove?
[10:56] <cpk2> kaning: you try your username and password?
[10:56] <ivoks> kaning: samba doesn't use passwords from linux users
[10:56] <ladydoor> collier: what is add/remove? synaptic ubuntu's package manager, and adept is kubuntu's.
[10:56] <micael71> ivoks do you know any grafical ftp-server
[10:57] <ivoks> micael71: ? lol no
[10:57] <steamR> cpk2: sudo doesnt just brake... are you listed in /etc/sudoers
[10:57] <Flannel> ladydoor: "add/remove" is the dumbed down interface in the menues
[10:57] <collier> add/remove applications
[10:57] <Samuel_> #ubuntu-it
[10:57] <anon32> how can I set sudo to ask for root's password
[10:57] <ladydoor> Flannel: oh, i see. but isn't synaptic well under the standard definition of ``user-friendly?''

[10:57] <Flannel> anon32: you dont
[10:57] <britt> how do i find out which module is being loaded for my sound?
[10:57] <cpk2> steamR: yeah, sudo just didnt do anything, any sudo command would hang
[10:57] <anon32> I know there's a way to do it
[10:58] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know of any good binary news servers that support posting that can be accessed via Pan
[10:58] <Flannel> ladydoor: it is, but not if you only know you want "a web browser" or whatever, add remove has suggested apps etc
[10:58] <georgy> britt : lsmod
[10:58] <Flannel> anon32: why not just use su, in that case?
[10:58] <Shadowpillar> who's having the sudo problem?
[10:58] <ladydoor> Flannel: oh, i see. check.
[10:58] <ladydoor> Flannel: sounds complicated.
[10:58] <collier> I dont see anything java in the synaptic package manager
[10:58] <ladydoor> cpk2: do less /etc/sudoers and post the result to pastebin, would you?
[10:58] <anon32> Flannel, because then I'd have to deal with exiting out of a root shell
[10:58] <Flannel> collier: you need to enable multiverse, ubotu has sent you a link about it three times now
[10:58] <anon32> and that doesn't work for graphical sudo
[10:59] <georgy> collier : do you have all repos enable ?
[10:59] <twinge> I'm having trouble getting the Add/Remove Applications program to use proxy settings. Where am I supposed to set those?
[10:59] <Shadowpillar> best thing I can say is boot up the live cd, and enter a chroot on your main system via the live cd and do an apt-get --reinstall install sudo
[10:59] <collier> repos? I dont know
[10:59] <ladydoor> collier: which java were you looking for? sun?
[10:59] <Flannel> !java
[10:59] <ubotu> 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
[10:59] <collier> yes
[10:59] <Flannel> collier: follow that link
[10:59] <jtholmes> !multiuniverse
[10:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about multiuniverse - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[11:00] <Flannel> collier: so then do those steps, and you'll have java
[11:00] <dabou> greetings, i recently downloaded the latest version of ubuntu and installed it, along with everything i wanted, without testing anything, brought it home where i do not have the internet, to find that i have no sound. the volume control appears, but it does not have the WAVE or PCM or whatever sliders... ALSA does not seem to load at boot. the card is a sound blaster audigy. it never did this before with ubuntu. i looked around all weekend at config files.. l
[11:00] <collier> un Java5: Install it from the Applications -> Add/Remove... menu making sure to check the unsupported and proprietary software checkboxes, or install the sun-java5-bin package.
[11:00] <collier> I told u
[11:00] <ladydoor> jtholmes: ummm...why not just read the bot's pm?
[11:00] <collier> its not in add/remove
[11:00] <chx> how could i get mplayer to use the second sounds with alsa? i know it's some -ao alsa: but i do not know how to go on
[11:00] <twinge> I tried to set a global proxy using gconf-editor, but that didn't do the trick
[11:00] <Flannel> collier: no, use synaptic, not add remove.
[11:00] <jtholmes> ladydoor: where is it i am very new to irc
[11:00] <steamR> britt lsmod | grep pcm
[11:00] <jtholmes> but not to linux
[11:01] <ladydoor> jtholmes: i don't know what program you're using...it's probably in a different tab though
[11:01] <cpk2> ladydoor: I have since rebooted since the problem but here is /etc/sudoers http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25527/
[11:01] <ivoks> anon32: man sudo
[11:01] <jtholmes> ladydoor: konversation  with tabs along bottom
[11:01] <collier> Flannel: it says to use add/remove
[11:01] <ivoks> anon32: rootpw      If set, sudo will prompt for the root password
[11:02] <twinge> any help with proxy settings?
[11:02] <ivoks> anon32: make that man sudoers
[11:02] <ladydoor> jtholmes: then it should be in a different tab.
[11:02] <georgy> collier : type in a console : sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin
[11:02] <georgy> collier : a it will be installed
[11:02] <matt8806suomi> menu editor from terminal??
[11:02] <jtholmes> ladydoor: only tabs i have  are  irc.freenode  #kde  # kubuntu  #ubuntu
[11:03] <sureshot> hey all ware can i find the syntax to install beryl for aiglx i have an ati care not nvidia
[11:03] <steamR> cpk2: root    ALL=(ALL) ALL add similar line beneath, but with your username
[11:03] <Flannel> collier: right, but at the top of the page, it mentions you MUST have multiverse enabled, which you must not, if it doesn't show up
[11:03] <collier> when I type it in termainal it ask me for a password
[11:03] <Paddy_EIRE> i didnt sign out
[11:03] <kaning> thanks ivoks
[11:03] <jtholmes> ladydoor: i will poke around to find out more about the bot
[11:03] <ladydoor> jtholmes: hmmm...odd. ubotu should've sent you a pm.
[11:03] <collier> How do I enabled multiverse?
[11:03] <georgy> collier : it's your password
[11:03] <ivoks> kaning: ?
[11:03] <Flannel> !tell collier about multiverse
[11:03] <ivoks> kaning: ah, samba passwords :)
[11:03] <matt8806suomi> anybody know how to get menu editor from terminal??
[11:03] <theBish0p> it would be neat if Ubuntu could be installed to a free partition from within windows
[11:03] <cpk2> steamR: why? I can already use sudo...
[11:03] <tuxtux> ciao a tutti
[11:03] <jtholmes> ladydoor: my oversight it did and i am looking at it
[11:04] <Flannel> theBish0p: it is possible
[11:04] <Abst> System -> Admin -> Synaptic
[11:04] <anon32> um, while trying to edit sudoers, I got an error "read-only"
[11:04] <Abst> Its in the repositorys menu bit
[11:04] <ladydoor> cpk2: are in the admin group? what's the output of the command groups?
[11:04] <collier> Multiverse (software that is "not free").
[11:04] <collier> I have to buy it?
[11:04] <ladydoor> jtholmes: cool :-)
[11:04] <jtholmes> ladydoor: how does one trigger such actions
[11:04] <shwag> when I echo a textarea I get a bunch of ^M's at the carriage return areas.
[11:04] <anon32> but I was running gedit as root
[11:04] <steamR> cpk2: well, then... Ignore it. Should not be needed anyway...
[11:04] <theBish0p> flannel: is it "technically" possible, or is there an actual way of doing it?
[11:04] <Flannel> collier: no, it's just not open source.
[11:04] <LiraNuna> My sister always says "Oh, you are doing something illegal, right?" when I have a terminal open
[11:04] <ladydoor> jtholmes: !somethinginteresting > somenick
[11:04] <Flannel> theBish0p: yes, there's a howto on the installation page
[11:04] <cpk2> ladydoor: I am in admin
[11:04] <Flannel> !tell theBish0p about install
[11:04] <ivoks> anon32: sudo visudo
[11:04] <theBish0p> sweet, i'll check it out
[11:04] <georgy> anon32 : you have to use visudo
[11:05] <Admiral_Chicago> LiraNuna, do you say yes. i would
[11:05] <jtholmes> ladydoor: just as i asked the question the  >  jtholmes  thingy came flashing back thanks
[11:05] <LiraNuna> Admiral_Chicago, ?
[11:05] <LiraNuna> haha
[11:05] <tuskernini> GAIM and IDENTIFY did not work... dont know exactly how to repeat buddy pounce... anyone?
[11:05] <ladydoor> jtholmes: haha...cool
[11:05] <Coolrazor> Is there a VNC or RDP that doesn't require the server to have x session running?
[11:05] <jtholmes> ladydoor: i know linux but irc is new to me, lot to learn especially short cuts
[11:05] <anon32> gah, I don't get it
[11:05] <anon32> how do I save?
[11:06] <matt8806suomi> anybody know how to get menu editor in terminal??
[11:06] <Agrajag> anon32: you don't know how to use vim?
[11:06] <w30> theBish0p, I wouldn't trust "Windows" to do anything besides "Windows" ;=)
[11:06] <georgy> anon : !wq
[11:06] <ladydoor> jtholmes: haha, yeah...i only recently started using irc.
[11:06] <anon32> no
[11:06] <Agrajag> anon32: make your changes, hit esc, type :wq (enter)
[11:06] <ladydoor> Agrajag: you don't need to use vim to use visudo. you can set it to use nano (which i think it does by default)
[11:06] <Flannel> anon32: use nano instead of vim
[11:06] <ladydoor> (in ubuntu)
[11:06] <Agrajag> ladydoor: oh
[11:06] <georgy> Agrajag: oups, you right
[11:06] <Avagant> nano!
[11:06] <Avagant> !nano

[11:06] <tuskernini> use vim, its cool
[11:06] <ivoks> anon32: take 10 minutes and run vimtutor :)
 do you know how to get menu editor from terminal??
[11:07] <anon32> I still don't get nano
[11:07] <mjr> Coolrazor, what you want is Xvnc (though technically it still is an X session)
[11:07] <ladydoor> matt8806suomi: for what wm?

[11:07] <Avagant> help
[11:07] <ivoks> anon32: it's not nano, but vi
[11:07] <JosefK> need to get Anjuta in that list really
[11:07] <Agrajag> it's not vim, and it's not nano
[11:07] <ladydoor> matt8806suomi: ubuntu is an operating system, not a window manager.
[11:07] <Coolrazor> mjr thanks!
[11:07] <Avagant> how do i send a message with querying one person?
[11:07] <anon32> no, it says nano
[11:07] <theBish0p> w30: all i'm talking about is installing Ubuntu to a seperate partition without having to reboot.  just a matter of convenience so my machine isn't out of commission for 2 hours
[11:07] <Agrajag> anon32: I must have something weird set up then
[11:07] <theBish0p> after the system is installed, then i'll reboot
[11:08] <matt8806suomi> gnome 2.16, if i was using kde i would have said kubuntu
[11:08] <ivoks> anon32: do it like this
[11:08] <ivoks> anon32: export EDITOR="gedit"
[11:08] <ivoks> anon32: sudo visudo
[11:08] <Agrajag> in that case, make your changes and use ctrl-O to writeout the file
[11:08] <Agrajag> and ctrl-X to exit
[11:08] <ladydoor> matt8806suomi: ah. do you know the name of the menu editor? and there are other wm's than xfce, gnome, and kde, such as fluxbox, ratpoison, ion, twm, blackbox, etc.
[11:08] <Avagant> anon32: Ya.
[11:09] <anon32> I got a syntax error
[11:09] <w30> theBish0p, Ubuntu install must have taken me 15 minutes at most, with an install cd.
[11:09] <matt8806suomi> ah yes true true, yeah it's alacarte
[11:09] <seatouch> hi i've got a problem .. i cant seem to output any sounds on my pc .. so anyone wanna help me ?
[11:09] <steamR> seatouch: fire
[11:10] <theBish0p> w30: its not a knock against ubuntu, i'm just doing other stuff right now, so i don't have the time to do the installer
[11:10] <Avagant> anon32: I use gedit anyways.
[11:10] <ladydoor> matt8806suomi: probably just type alacarte. if that works, for future reference, in gnome, i *think* you can hit <alt>F2 to bring up a run-command box, and you can type it there.
[11:10] <w30> theBish0p, to get it finished the way I want it takes weeks though
[11:10] <ivoks> anon32: not understanding vim or emacs is like not understanding shifting gears in car
[11:10] <steamR> seatouch: what sound card?
[11:10] <anon32> HELP! I keep getting syntax errors
[11:10] <seatouch> streamR its a cmedia i think
[11:10] <ladydoor> anon32: what is your syntax error?
[11:10] <anon32> on line 23!
[11:10] <ivoks> anon32: so, what's on line 23?
[11:11] <anon32> visudo "syntax error on line 23, sudoers not changed"
[11:11] <anon32> I don't have 23 lines
[11:11] <steamR> seatouch: Is this in vmware?
[11:11] <lance> can anyone help me.. my mouse movement is really choppy.. dont know why.. only sometimes it starts up this way
[11:11] <seatouch> steamR no just normal installation
[11:12] <ivoks> anon32: what did you change in sudoers?
[11:12] <lance> i.e it moves really slow..
[11:12] <anon32> I added "rootpw"
[11:12] <Avagant> yah i can't seem to get into all of these asound.rc things.
[11:12] <bm0nk> I guess no one can help me then.....
[11:12] <Avagant> i can't find them!
[11:12] <steamR> seatouch: cmedia is not all good on ALSA. Install the OSS-ALSA wrapper thing... let me see...
[11:12] <matt8806suomi> ladydoor: even in sudo i can't delete items
[11:12] <ivoks> anon32: that's wrong
[11:12] <lance> does anyone know why  my mouse moves really choppy?
[11:12] <ladydoor> matt8806suomi: i don't know anything about gnome, i'm sorry.
[11:13] <ivoks> anon32: there's a line that starts with Default
[11:13] <seatouch> steamR ok sure tell me on installation
[11:13] <ivoks> anon32: Defaults        !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn
[11:13] <anon32> what do I do?
[11:13] <ladydoor> anon32: ok, you actually need to put that on the line ivoks just posted.
[11:13] <ivoks> anon32: change it into Defaults        !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn,rootpw

[11:14] <steamR> seatouch: sudo apt-get install alsa-oss (It is in Universe i think)
[11:14] <anon32> it already says defaults etc etc
[11:14] <matt8806suomi> nah that's cool
[11:14] <ladydoor> anon32: right, you need to put rootpw on that line.
[11:14] <seatouch> steamR ok sure
[11:14] <ivoks> anon32: read again what i've waid

[11:51] <Avagant> hmmm
[11:51] <tuskernini> does anyone use gizmo?
[11:51] <ladydoor> sjek: you need to use cp -a
[11:51] <collier> ARRRRR.
[11:51] <we2by> Bazzi, have you tried gnome 2.16 already?
[11:51] <Avagant> collier, i'm just by what I went through this morning.
[11:51] <sjek> ok
[11:51] <Avagant> i'm just going by i mean
[11:51] <sjek> what does the -a do ladydoor?
[11:51] <Bazzi> we2by: yes, I'm running it currently
[11:51] <collier_> Be right back
[11:51] <we2by> Bazzi, stable enough to work on it?
[11:52] <collier> so you /think/.
[11:52] <sjek> (i'm a real newbie :) )
[11:52] <Bazzi> we2by: gnome/gtk itself yes, but not all applications on top of it
[11:52] <ladydoor> sjek: it's the first signal in the cp manpage--you can see it there. normally, you wouldn't need it, but sudo doesn't automatically know that you want the proper behavior
[11:52] <gnomefreak> we2by: please talk about gnome 2.16 in #ubuntu+1
[11:52] <we2by> Bazzi, like what application?
[11:52] <Bazzi> especially some universe packages are still broken/need some small hacking etc
[11:52] <Avagant> is it giving you a error message about the password, collier_?

[11:58] <georgy_> stu : wich card ?
[11:58] <torchie> normally when I have a problem I'm pissed and have to put the bad mouthing somewhere
[11:58] <plexus> ....maybe you can help me?
[11:58] <ladydoor> torchie: perhaps you should consider brushing up on your English vocabulary then.
[11:58] <stu_> georgy_: Ive tried two, shuttle PN18 and netgear wpn111
[11:59] <torchie> hmm
[11:59] <ladydoor> stu_: oh. hmm. so sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup wlan0 fails?
[11:59] <shawn-admin> real quick question: what's the name of the mp3 codec for totem?
[11:59] <torchie> my vocabulary does only consist of 24 words
[11:59] <torchie> perhaps I should.
[11:59] <georgy_> stu : sorry, do know this card
[11:59] <ladydoor> torchie: see, there's the problem!

[11:59] <torchie> Can one recommend me a dictionary with which to improve upon my knowledge of the english language?
[11:59] <torchie> ;)
[11:59] <stu_> ladydoor: no such interfaces
[12:00] <Agrajag> shawn-admin: gstreamer-plugins-bad or something similar
[12:00] <ladydoor> stu_: perhaps in #ndiswrapper?
[12:00] <ladydoor> stu_: all i know is that ubuntu's ndiswrapper works.
[12:00] <shawn-admin> why's it gstreamer-plugins-bad?
[12:00] <shawn-admin> oops, my nick is wrong
[12:00] <micael71> ladydoor thanks i can see that the program is running  but how do i get the program in grafic
[12:01] <ladydoor> micael71: what program?
[12:01] <Agrajag> -good is good, free plugins, -bad is non-free plugins, and -ugly is broken plugins
