[12:01] <zephod> lo
[12:01] <XxTwitchxX> Does anyone know how to change the login splash screen on GNOME?
[12:01] <vulcanium> TheGateKeeper: alsaconf
[12:02] <xtime> S.a.
[12:02] <babwe2> <Gabby_Hayes well I believe so it wazz in the repo
[12:02] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: well it's not in the repos
[12:03] <vulcanium> TheGateKeeper: well, can't I get around that somehow still?
[12:03] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: I suppose you could get a debian version (don't know if that would work) or compile it
[12:03] <Gabby_Hayes> babwe2 .. can you get to the internet via a terminal, and re-install that app?
[12:03] <vulcanium> well its owrth a try at this point I think
[12:03] <nattfodd> hi
[12:03] <itchi> XxTwitchxX: Type 'gnome splash themes' in google. take the first result
[12:03] <TheGateKeeper> !sound
[12:03] <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
[12:03] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: ^^^^
[12:03] <nattfodd> would anyone happen to know how to make a manual kernel recompilation work?
[12:03] <nattfodd> compile works fine but I can't boot on it
[12:05] <babwe2> well I tried that but cant download it, or that wazz earlier tday maybe now, let me try again
[12:05] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: dev's attitude seems to be, if it doesn't work file a bug
[12:05] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: at least that is what they told me
[12:05] <itchi> !YACOC
[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about YACOC - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:06] <itchi> ugh, it's Yet Another Cup Of Coffe, ubotu :-p
[12:06] <Dreamglider> i have booted the liveCD i have acces to my Windows partion and my usb disk but i cant drag n drop files from the NTFS to the FAT32 help
[12:06] <foo> I am trying to set up an ssh user and chroot him so all he can do is ssh in to me, and then ssh out... and that's it. I followed this: http://www.ffnn.nl/pages/articles/linux/setting-up-a-chroot-jail-for-cvs.php#contentstart - but for some reason, the user isn't able to login. Any ideas?
[12:06] <andy__> hi all, when ever I run a KDE program, It says that I can write the config files for it.  On the other hand, I can run the program without any errors if I run it as a Suuper user.  Is there a way to get permission to write these config files (to the .kde folder) without being in SU?
[12:06] <CVirus> anybody succeeded in getting the Wireless Broadcom 4311 to work ?
[12:07] <tecywiz121> any know of a filesystem that works read/write in both windows and linux other than fat?
[12:07] <babwe2> Gabby_Hayes let me go to my other pc where im running 5.10 v running drake
[12:07] <khedron> ext2 does with a win32 driver afaik
[12:07] <vulcanium> tecywiz121: you can get an ext2 driver for windows
[12:07] <vulcanium> I had issues with it personaly
[12:08] <vulcanium> decided to just use fat32
[12:08] <tecywiz121> vulcanium: is that all?
[12:08] <lostinc> hi I know I have asked this before but I have items in my Trash can that will not delete with the standard empty trash command can anyone tell me a way to empty the trash can via a command line?
[12:09] <tecywiz121> or are there others?
[12:09] <Phlosten> lostinc: go to .Trash and use the 'rm' command
[12:09] <mumbles> NUTT?
[12:09] <finalbeta> Ehm, if I delete a ln -s link, I will not be deleting the files it pount to right?
[12:09] <finalbeta> it's a directory
[12:09] <BHSPitLappy> correct
[12:09] <LjL> finalbeta: no, that shouldn't happen
[12:09] <finalbeta> ok, thnx
[12:09] <georgy> finalbeta : right
[12:10] <sidny4> CVirus, have you tried disabling the bcm43xx driver in modprobe and using ndiswrapper?
[12:10] <BHSPitLappy> you can even make a dummy file and link just to test your methods
[12:10] <Phlosten> lostinc: you will probably need to use 'sudo rm' if they are not going the usual way
[12:10] <CVirus> sidny4: yes
[12:10] <CVirus> sidny4: I'ev been working on this chipset for a month to get it working
[12:10] <BHSPitLappy> well, I give up.
[12:10] <BHSPitLappy> I'm rebooting my desktop to windows just to use the wireless card.
[12:11] <BHSPitLappy> Windows 1, Linux 0.
[12:11] <sidny4> CVirus, are you getting any sort of error message?
[12:11] <lostinc> Thank you. That seemed to work great. Now I need to get the trash can icon to change. I suppose that a reboot may work.
[12:11] <AsheD> I have decided while playing GnomeBreakout that the odds of the ball getting stuck inside part of something are directly proportional to how well you are doing
[12:12] <Phlosten> lostinc: no, if you have actually emptied all the trash it should change itself
[12:12] <gnomefreak> AsheD: can you please take non-support issues to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:12] <CVirus> sidny4: before using ndiswrapper ... they card was unknown to lspci .. but now after using a recommended windows driver .. I can see wlan0 in ifconfig and there is a correct mac address ... but It just doesnt detect any wireless networks
[12:12] <andy__> Is there an easy way to remove only the apps installed with KDE, but not the actual KDE core
[12:12] <vit_> hy all
[12:12] <Phlosten> lostinc: do you have seperate partitions mounted. iirc there is a .Trash created for each partition if you delete from other partitions etc
[12:12] <gnomefreak> andy__: yes hold on one sec
[12:13] <sidny4> CVirus, have you tried setting which network it connects to using iwconfig?
[12:13] <gnomefreak> andy__: remove libqt3-mt
[12:13] <CVirus> sidny4: yes
[12:13] <andy__> gnomefreak: how, what commands?
[12:13] <gnomefreak> andy__: sudo apt-get remove libqt3-mt
[12:14] <CVirus> sidny4: after setting the essid and then ifconfig .. the essid isnt there
[12:14] <andy__> ok thanks
[12:14] <tiredbones> I just upgraded to Dapper - I think. How can I verify that that the upgrade took?
[12:14] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: did you reboot?
[12:14] <sidny4> the essid wouldn't show up in ifconfig, only iwconfig
[12:14] <CVirus> sidny4: I really need this piece of crap working
[12:14] <CVirus> sidny4: iwconfig sorry
[12:14] <tiredbones> yes
[12:14] <sidny4> ok
[12:14] <Dreamglider> i have booted the liveCD i have acces to my Windows partion and my usb disk but i cant drag n drop files from the NTFS to the FAT32 help
[12:14] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: lsb_release -a
[12:14] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: type that in terminal it will tell you what you are one
[12:14] <rleathers> I have 8GB RAM, but still unable to see more than 4GB.... I installed linux-image-server and rebooted but /proc/meminfo still shows only 4GB
[12:15] <gnomefreak> on*
[12:15] <sidny4> CVirus, did you blacklist bcm43xx?
[12:15] <bruenig> 8 GB of RAM, good god, what are you doing
[12:15] <CVirus> sidny4: yes I did .. i rmmod it and black listed it
[12:15] <andy__> graphics prob
[12:15] <bruenig> that requires that much RAM
[12:15] <andy__> I have 4, and I need more
[12:15] <babwe> Gabby_Hayes this is the one im trying t install http://drip.sourceforge.net/download.php
[12:16] <sidny4> and ndiswrapper -l lists driver installed and hardware present correct?
[12:16] <rleathers> I will be running numerous Xen instances
[12:16] <bruenig> I have 512, although ubuntu says I have 377.2 for whatever reason, and I never get over 250 MB
[12:16] <TheLance> ok Ubuntu LTS 6.10 is bothering the hell outta me now
[12:16] <khedron> Dreamglider: your FAT32 is probably mounted to only allow root to write to it. Try gksu nautilus --browser to open a browser as root
[12:16] <bruenig> TheLance, I don't think it is LTS by the way
[12:16] <CVirus> sidny4: any ideas ?
[12:16] <Gabby_Hayes> k,  let take a look..
[12:16] <TheLance> its not mounting my xorg file
[12:17] <mjr> rleathers, is that an Intel PAE box or amd64, and are you running 32- or 64-bit ubuntu?
[12:17] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: it looks like it didn't take. Back to the drawing board. thanks for the reply
[12:17] <TheLance> i have the proper resolutions installed
[12:17] <sidny4> CVirus, haha, I'm running low on Ideas
[12:17] <TheLance> but it cant see it
[12:17] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: what does uname -r say?
[12:17] <TheLance> i can only use 640X480
[12:17] <CVirus> sidny4: any reports whether its working or not ?
[12:17] <rleathers> Intel PAE
[12:17] <TheLance> and 800X600
[12:17] <TheLance> its annoying as hell
[12:17] <TheLance> especially when I have a 1440X900 monitor
[12:17] <rleathers> and dang --- yes it is 32 - and there is my answer!
[12:17] <rambo3> mega characters
[12:17] <andy__> How do I change the permission of the /.kde folder to my user rather then root????
[12:17] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: 2.6.12-10-386
[12:18] <Zoffix> Hi, has someone managed to install VMServer on Ubuntu, when I try it says "A previous installation has been detected... aborting".. and that even with "Remove completely" on vmplayer packages
[12:18] <sidny4> CVirus, does the wireless network have any type of security?
[12:18] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: how did you upgrade. what method did you use?
[12:18] <florizs1984> @andy__ sudo chown username:username
[12:18] <CVirus> sidny4: no ... I was scanning an unsecured network
[12:18] <TheLance> man it was a mistake installing Edgy eft
[12:18] <andy__> ok thanks, Ill give it a go in a bit
[12:18] <florizs1984> @TheLance why?
[12:18] <gnomefreak> TheLance: please keep edgy talk in #ubuntu+1
[12:19] <Ries> Anybody know when new ubuntu-server CD's will be released?
[12:19] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: downloaded the iso image and cut my own cd.
[12:19] <TheLance> well it doesn't mount my xorg  file
[12:19] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: thats what you did?
[12:19] <sidny4> CVirus, so you did this command right: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "network_name"
[12:19] <rleathers> so next question, how hard will it be to upgrade to 64 bit ubuntu ?  do I just aim at different repositories and dist upgrade ?
[12:19] <sidny4> right?
[12:19] <Gabby_Hayes> babwe2 .. can't connect to that url
[12:19] <rambo3> thats becouse no one reads information.  topic or warnings about edgy
[12:19] <bruenig> Ries, probably october 26
[12:19] <gnomefreak> TheLance: talk about edgy in #ubuntu+1
[12:20] <mjr> rleathers, if you have a 32-bit PAE box, you can't
[12:20] <CVirus> sidny4: exactly
[12:20] <CVirus> sidny4: and sudo iwlist wlan0 scan ... no results
[12:20] <Ries> bruenig: Ok thanks... I need a new kernel on teh 64bits ubuntu-server CD... but I don't feel confident doing it....
[12:20] <Phuzion> I'm having DNS errors
[12:20] <Phuzion> Can someone help me diagnose my problem?
[12:20] <rambo3> sudo iwconfig wlan0 managed
[12:20] <rambo3> sudo dhclient wlan0
[12:20] <mjr> rleathers, anyway, just check if the server kernel has PAE support, I dunno about that. Thought it might be you running a 32-bit distro on an amd64 (or 64-bit intel)
[12:20] <Ries> bruenig: are you cinfident in building installation CD's?
[12:20] <Knifa> I downloaded the AMD64 version of Edgy Eft, but when i do "uname -r" it shows the kernel as being generic. Does that mean it's actually going as x86 rather than x64?
[12:21] <bruenig> Ries, no
[12:21] <mjr> Knifa, no
[12:21] <Ries> Knifa: try uname -m
[12:21] <rleathers> I have dual Xeon EM64T - so hardware wise it will be ok - I installed the 32 bit distro is my problem addressing over 4GB I guess
[12:21] <Knifa> aha!
[12:21] <Knifa> thanks
[12:21] <gnomefreak> Knifa: join #ubuntu+1 for edgy
[12:21] <psycose_> How to make a package don't upgradable ... the synaptic => package => block version don't seems to work
[12:21] <gnomefreak> Knifa: no thats good
[12:21] <defi__3x> How do you force a device to be ignored?
[12:21] <Knifa> gnomefreak: what?
[12:21] <foo> Is this a valid visudo entry? I want people in the group sshjail to only be able to execute /bin/chroot ... hmm %sshjail ALL= NOPASSWD: /bin/chroot
[12:22] <defi__3x> Im assuming its something with HAL but I just can't figure out what
[12:22] <gnomefreak> Knifa: join #ubuntu+1 i will explain there
[12:22] <mjr> rleathers, ok, then the thing to check for is if those CPUs support over 4 gigs of physical memory running 32-bit. And yes, installing a 64-bit Ubuntu would help, if nothing else.
[12:22] <Knifa> yeah i'm there already
[12:22] <Knifa> i joined here because no one was awnsering me
[12:22] <rambo3> defi__3x, just dont modprobe its driver
[12:22] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: I notice when the system goes thru a verification phase I get this,  Checking /ubuntu.ico  then, check finished o checksum failed. I'm not sure what this message is saying.
[12:22] <defi__3x> rambo3, It will automatticallydo that
[12:23] <defi__3x> rambo3, how can I stop it?
[12:23] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: you downloaded the dapper iso and installed from that?
[12:23] <rambo3> !blacklist >defi__3x
[12:23] <rleathers> well surely Dell would not let me put 8GB RAM in the PC if the CPU couldn't address it right ?
[12:23] <CVirus> sidny4: suggestions ?
[12:23] <defi__3x> rambo3, ahh
[12:23] <SB|nblracer> Hi again
[12:23] <CVirus> sidny4: on this laptop
[12:23] <SB|nblracer> need some help loging in
[12:23] <CVirus> oops
[12:23] <defi__3x> rambo3, thx ill start searching on how to do that
[12:23] <xTNTx> anyone can help me? I'm getting problems installing Kubuntu from the liveCD
[12:24] <CVirus> sidny4: on the laptop's wiki page they say its working with ndiswrapper
[12:24] <SB|nblracer> I just installed ubuntu for the first time
[12:24] <rleathers> and its all counting up in the BIOS
[12:24] <Ries> rleathers: can I ask you what serve ryou have?? I have problems with my perk5 raid controler
[12:24] <xTNTx> I've got the crashlog, if anyone mind to check
[12:24] <mjr> rleathers, but it can, at least in 64-bit.
[12:24] <sidny4> hmm
[12:24] <sidny4> CVirus, what kind of laptop is it?
[12:24] <THX-1138> SB|nblracer: Welcome to #ubuntu
[12:24] <Gabby_Hayes> hmmm.. was that Dell salesman an ex-HP guy who sold you those 8GB or ram?  (j/k)
[12:24] <CVirus> sidny4: HP Compaq nx6310
[12:24] <SB|nblracer> once i type my username and password the screen goes into what looks to be console, then goes back to the login screen
[12:24] <mjr> Anyway, towards checking for PAE support in the CPU and in the kernel, or upgrading to 64-bit, lie your answers
[12:25] <defi__3x> rambo3, nvm the search its a file under modprobe
[12:25] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: yes, I downloaded the iso image the burnt my cd. Then installed.
[12:25] <defi__3x> rambo3, thx again
[12:25] <SB|nblracer> any reason why it not lettiung me log in
[12:25] <itchi> Oh, he is now above the 15%
[12:25] <SB|nblracer> i know the password and name are correct
[12:25] <rleathers> ok thanks guys - will reinstall with 64 bit version (feels like idiot for not realizing this sooner)
[12:25] <itchi> Maybe an scratched cd i had previously
[12:26] <THX-1138> mjr - Is there a kernel patch neede to support three displays?
[12:26] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: open up your sources.list by typing gksudo "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" and let me know when its up
[12:26] <rleathers> xinerama can handle 3
[12:26] <mjr> THX-1138, no
[12:26] <CVirus> sidny4: hmm ?
[12:26] <THX-1138> mjr - Thanks
[12:26] <sidny4> CVirus, I'm thinkin, I'm thinkin :D
[12:26] <CVirus> sidny4: I appreciate that
[12:26] <CVirus> sidny4: have you got a similar card ?
[12:26] <florizs1984> does anyone know a good tool for configuring a synaptics touchpad?
[12:26] <mjr> THX-1138, it's just a question of having enough cards or a single card with the connectivity and driver support required
[12:26] <sicko> how can i install ntfs-3g for breezy ??
[12:27] <gnomefreak> sicko: you would have to look on the website for it. it is not an ubuntu app
[12:27] <THX-1138> mjr - three adapters - lshw and the bios only see two
[12:28] <gnomefreak> sicko: and it doesnt make it safer to write to ntfs anyway
[12:28] <minerale> pike__, itchi, ljl: Ok I was able to fix the mbr by using fixmbr.exe (an independent non-ms version of the fixmbr utility) on a vista-booted cd, thanks
[12:28] <sidny4> CVirus, i have the bcm4318 in my laptop
[12:28] <sicko> just need to copy &delete files from ntfs, no write
[12:28] <itchi> minerale: So it was been an mbr trouble
[12:28] <gnomefreak> sicko: you dont need external app to do that
[12:28] <gnomefreak> !ntfs
[12:28] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[12:29] <CVirus> sidny4: and it works ?
[12:29] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: it's up
[12:29] <gnomefreak> sicko: ^^ read that
[12:29] <sicko> ?
[12:29] <jvai> linksys wifi cards sound like mad trouble... orinoco's r bettr, they just dont support scanning
[12:29] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: in each line you see the word breezy or dapper?
[12:29] <CVirus> sidny4: ndiswrapper or the native driver ?
[12:29] <sidny4> CVirus, I had to use ndiswrapper but it works great
[12:29] <gnomefreak> !ntfs > sicko
[12:29] <gnomefreak> sicko: read your pm from ubotu
[12:29] <minerale> itchi: yep, would you guess that a broken mbr == windows install cd thinking the hard drive does not exist?
[12:30] <sidny4> CVirus, the bcm43xx seems to be buggy, I haven't heard of anyone able to use it (haven't been listening much I guess)

[12:31] <CVirus> sidny4: sure I comiled the latest version
[12:31] <gnomefreak> sicko: deleting from an ntfs is writing
[12:31] <CVirus> sidny4: it was released 2 days ago
[12:31] <sidny4> CVirus, nice, so it shouldn't be that
[12:31] <gnomefreak> sicko: adding or deleting things is writing to it
[12:31] <Dreamglider> how can i copy files from my ntfs it they have invalid names, i cant write to the ntfs(So no rename) help
[12:32] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: can I just cut and paste?

[12:37] <gtapro91> woah
[12:37] <gtapro91> operas fuckin amazing
[12:38] <sidny4> CVirus, did you use the driver from him?
[12:38] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: its a package that depends on other apps but nothing depends on it
[12:38] <CVirus> sidny4: yes
[12:38] <SB|nblracer> yes it is goes black then back to login
[12:38] <gnomefreak> gtapro91: watch your language please
[12:38] <gtapro91> so u guys are ubuntu devs?
[12:38] <gtapro91> sorry
[12:38] <CVirus> sidny4: this is even the driver listed on ndiswrapper page
[12:38] <SB|nblracer> looks like the console screen
[12:38] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Have you install an X envirnment? An GUI
[12:38] <gandolfthewizard> is there anyone that can help me a little i went to the fourms and i tryed everything there and i wqas coming up with errors and everything
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> Ghome i think
[12:39] <THX-1138> tiredbones: it is a list that helps to install other needed packages.
[12:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Which type of cd have you use to make the install?
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> what ever comes on the DVD version
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> Ubuntu
[12:39] <sidny4> CVirus, hmm, that's odd that it doesn't work
[12:39] <gnomefreak> THX-1138: than it would be called a meta list
[12:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: The desktop or server version?
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> desktop
[12:39] <CVirus> sidny4: very oddd
[12:39] <CVirus> odd*
[12:39] <gnomefreak> itchi: dvd is gui
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> i installed though the text
[12:40] <Dreamglider> how do i enable writh on NTFS partion
[12:40] <gnomefreak> !ntfs > Dreamglider
[12:40] <SB|nblracer> Im almost sure the password and name are right
[12:40] <THX-1138> gnomefreak - would you please stop teaching me so much about linux - my head might 'splode! - rofl
[12:40] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: please read your pm
[12:40] <gnomefreak> lol
[12:40] <itchi> THX-1138: Need some drug?? Take another tux :-p
[12:41] <Dreamglider> write to ntfs
[12:41] <SB|nblracer> when i type the wrong PW and UN itchi it says to re type them
[12:41] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: not safe
[12:41] <THX-1138> itchi - nothing like a penguin to cure a windows headache.
[12:41] <THX-1138> Thanks guys. :)
[12:41] <Dreamglider> i dont care, i hate this peice of sh*t
[12:42] <SB|nblracer> when i do the right UN and PW, it goes to a black "console screen then bbackl to the login screen
[12:42] <gandolfthewizard> i don't i just want to install the java runtime
[12:42] <SB|nblracer> any clue why?
[12:42] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: When I do the apt-get on desktop I'm informed that I have the most current version. So I guess I can update /etc/apt/sources.lst and try the install again?
[12:42] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: the link ubotu sent you should have it if not look into fuse but if you do it your on your own
[12:42] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: yes finish it and save it
[12:42] <Dreamglider> i need to rename filename in order to copy to backu the file
[12:43] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Is it somethings like 'username@computer:~$' ?
[12:43] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: logging into windows would be too easy and too safe?
[12:43] <SB|nblracer> If any one can help me Please send me a PM/querry
[12:43] <foo> -bash-3.1$ ssh-keygen
[12:43] <foo> PRNG is not seeded
[12:43] <Dreamglider> the thing is gnomefreak i cant boot Ubuntu nor Windows so i ahve to backup
[12:43] <foo> Gah, any idea on that one?
[12:43] <SB|nblracer> Itchi where do i c that at
[12:43] <itchi> SB|nblracer: People do not like pm, and other users maybe are interested with your case
[12:43] <SB|nblracer> The black screen goes fast, but there is text on it
[12:44] <foo> ah, nevermind
[12:44] <itchi> SB|nblracer: So you login in with an user and then you are immediatly ejected out that session and need again enter an username and passwd?
[12:44] <SB|nblracer> it hard for me to see it beacuse im going between Ubuntu and windows
[12:44] <SB|nblracer> Yes
[12:44] <SB|nblracer> thats correct
[12:45] <dasos> i setup "share folders" to share a directory, but when i try to connect from windows using run -> \\computername\share it keeps asking for a login but doesn't accept it
[12:45] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Have you some troubles with the video card?
[12:45] <UNFG> hello all
[12:45] <SB|nblracer> I dought it it
[12:45] <SB|nblracer> it is an ATI rage 128
[12:45] <JoaoJoao> hello
[12:45] <SB|nblracer> It is supported
[12:46] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Normally if you have install the desktop version, you get directly an GUI interface to log in
[12:46] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: See you on the other siade of a new install, I HOPE!
[12:46] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: wait
[12:46] <patrickmorin> is there way to get my airport extreme card to work with Ubuntu?
[12:46] <JoaoJoao> anyone knows if there is any way to define a custom server for the network install?
[12:46] <SB|nblracer> and i was using Slazx worked fine
[12:46] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:46] <SB|nblracer> itchi i do get a GUI to login
[12:46] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: type that command and let it go
[12:47] <Dreamglider> !fuse
[12:47] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[12:47] <SB|nblracer> but once i type it in it goes black and back to the same login screen
[12:47] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Have you specify an gfx card in the setup? Maybe he use the wrong driver??
[12:47] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: Okay
[12:47] <gtapro91> you guys think google is working on thier own os?
[12:47] <gtapro91> or at least thier own linux distro
[12:48] <iamtheobject> google bought youtube today
[12:48] <gtapro91> yea
[12:48] <JoaoJoao> I remember somethiing in Brezzy about putting the installation files in a computer in my network and using it as the source for the install, can I do somethiing like that in Dapper?
[12:48] <SB|nblracer> This is my first time trying to login, I did not chnage any drivers from what was installed and detected in the setup
[12:48] <jvai> whaaat! google! bought utube??
[12:48] <gtapro91> yup
[12:48] <gtapro91> today
[12:48] <patrickmorin> yeah for 1.6 billion dolaars
[12:48] <iamtheobject> Rss: nytimes: Google to Acquire YouTube for $1.65 Billion
[12:48] <iamtheobject> Rss: slashdot: Google Buys YouTube for $1.65 Billion // IE7 To Ship With Windows Patches Tomorrow [Not] 
[12:48] <jvai> is it a slashdot article?
[12:48] <iamtheobject> ;)
[12:49] <jvai> wow
[12:49] <UNFG> can someone help me with a networking problem real quick.. i know the answeres simple but i cant remember how to do it
[12:49] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Im not yet more familiar with Ubuntu. Runs Debian here and Ubuntu is long time ago, he is installing it again right now in an virtual machine
[12:49] <gtapro91> ie7 is finally done ww
[12:49] <gtapro91> wow
[12:49] <georgy> !ask
[12:49] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:49] <gnomefreak> iamtheobject: join #ubuntu-offtopic for that chat
[12:49] <gnomefreak> gtapro91: you also
[12:49] <gtapro91> oh woops sorry
[12:49] <SB|nblracer> itchi is there a way i can frezze the screen on the black part to see what it says
[12:50] <ibug> hi
[12:50] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You can try to look in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf  file to see which driver he use
[12:50] <SB|nblracer> also itchi what should i do next to try to reslve this issuie
[12:50] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You can look to the differents logs files in /var/log/*
[12:50] <SB|nblracer> How do i do that
[12:50] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: It seems to be doing it thing.
[12:50] <SB|nblracer> Im new to linux
[12:50] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: good
[12:50] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You are in an black screen now?
[12:51] <JoaoJoao> So, there's no way to specify a custom location for the network install source
[12:51] <SB|nblracer> no
[12:51] <itchi> SB|nblracer: In console mode
[12:51] <JoaoJoao> :(
[12:51] <SB|nblracer> how do i get in console
[12:51] <gnomefreak> SB|nblracer: alt+f2
[12:51] <UNFG> i just installed ubuntu server.. it detects my nic.. but i think its tryin to run its own DCHP server instead of act as a client.. so it wont show up on the network.. how do i set it as a client for the routers dchp?
[12:51] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Press ctlr+alt+f1  to go the first or replace 1 with 1-6
[12:51] <gnomefreak> SB|nblracer: thats assuming you dont see any gui frames
[12:52] <SB|nblracer> thanks, gnomefreak hold on itchi
[12:52] <SAS_Spidey01> Do I have to use the Alternate Install CD if I don't want GRUB in my MBR?
[12:52] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: Doest this mean that I can't use the iso image I burnt as a backup for booting my system if I have to someday?
[12:52] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You have more than one computer?
[12:52] <gnomefreak> itchi: if hes already in tty he can just use alt+f-
[12:52] <cntb> SAS_Spidey01: yes
[12:52] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: yes you can
[12:52] <SB|nblracer> yes i do itchi
[12:52] <SAS_Spidey01> cntb: Thank you kindly
[12:52] <itchi> gnomefreak: I'm not know if he is in it, i think he is before that gdm login
[12:52] <SB|nblracer> there hooked up to the smae monitor, so i have to switch back and forth
[12:53] <gnomefreak> ah i thought he tried to get to gdma nd it droped him in tty
[12:53] <cntb> consider dual boot
[12:53] <SB|nblracer> wait a sec to see if i can get in console
[12:53] <itchi> SB|nblracer: For cheap you can buy an KVM. Some stuff to connect one monitor/keyboard/mouse to more than one computer
[12:54] <SkramX> the best way to share files between linux and windows partitions are through a seperate FAT32?
[12:54] <SB|nblracer> My monitor has dual input
[12:54] <georgy> SkramX : yes
[12:54] <SkramX> ok
[12:54] <SkramX> hrmph
[12:54] <itchi> ow, 50%
[12:54] <SAS_Spidey01> That our buy Microsoft
[12:55] <dyn-afk> :)
[12:55] <Nossace> i have a dell, installed ubuntu now i cant access the pc restore partition on dell bios startup using dell's original keyboard shortcuts, any solutions?
[12:55] <UNFG> did anyone see my question or should i repost?
[12:55] <itchi> Nossace: Is that partitions still living?
[12:56] <Nossace> its still there, not sure what you mean by living
[12:56] <georgy> UNFG : sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
[12:56] <com4> Is there a way to force the directory and file creation masks on a mounted samba file system? If I copy over a dir 0775 to the mounted folder, i would like it to rewrite the permissions as 0777 and 0666 for files
[12:57] <itchi> Nossace: That it's not delete, i mean
[12:57] <itchi> Nossace: The restore button not work in Ubuntu, bet well in Windows?
[12:57] <UNFG> georgy: ok there
[12:57] <SB|nblracer> itchi I went in the console and tryed to login
[12:57] <babwe> Gabby_hayes Ill be back tmorrow it seems im missing out the checking for gnome-config... no
[12:57] <babwe> checking for gnomeConf.sh file in /usr/local/lib... not found
[12:57] <SB|nblracer> and after saying there is no warrenty
[12:57] <ompaul> UNFG, try sudo dhclient and see what happens
[12:58] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Okay
[12:58] <SB|nblracer> it says there is not enough space to make a doc
[12:58] <Nossace> I want to keep ubuntu, i just want to restore my windows partition to factory
[12:58] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: If your downloading the iso image you might want to take a look at the problem I had. I'm not sure it will apply to you.
[12:58] <foo> Can I make two different ssh keys for the same user on the remote system?
[12:58] <nuked_omen> Nossace, reinstall windows then configure lilo
[12:58] <itchi> SB|nblracer: now look in the file 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'. sudo is needed to look as an administrator
[12:58] <nuked_omen> recl
[12:58] <nuked_omen> opps
[12:59] <itchi> SB|nblracer: If you want you can switch of user (see su), but that's for later
[12:59] <UNFG> georgy: i have auto eth0 {next line} iface eth0 inet dchp
[12:59] <SB|nblracer> How do i chnage directorys in linux
[12:59] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Use the same password as your user
[12:59] <SB|nblracer> change
[12:59] <SAS_Spidey01> what problem tiredbones ?
[12:59] <itchi> cd my_dir
[12:59] <georgy> UNFG : so it's a client
[12:59] <SB|nblracer> o that same as dos
[01:00] <itchi> aka cd /etc/X11/..
[01:00] <babwe> gabby_hayes also getting this configure: error: Could not find the gnomeConf.sh file that is generated by gnome-libs install/home/babwe/Desktop/drip-0.9.0/missing: Unknown `--run' option
[01:00] <itchi> SB|nblracer: do like following. type '/et' then press the tabulator key
[01:00] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: I had to modify my sources.list file.
[01:00] <Nossace> yes dell didn't give me a windows reinstallation cd, they made a partition on the hard disk that can restore the pc when called using a keyboard shortcut during the bios startup, but since that new gru boot system, when the dell interface is supposed to appear it goes to gru
[01:00] <SAS_Spidey01> sources.list ?
[01:00] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Got it? You get autocompletion
[01:00] <SB|nblracer> can you wait a sec while i try
[01:01] <CrapImAGhost> georgy: i want it to be but it wont connect to my router
[01:01] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Sure ;-)
[01:01] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: /etc/apt/sources.list .
[01:01] <itchi> Nossace: gru?
[01:02] <CrapImAGhost> georgy: it doesnt show up in ifconfig but shows up in ifconfig -a
[01:02] <babwe> be back tomorrow gabby_hayes
[01:02] <SAS_Spidey01> SB|nblracer: if your more used to DOS then Unix like commands Wikipeda might be able to help you
[01:02] <itchi> CrapImAGhost: The card is not up?
[01:02] <Nossace> the commandline thingy when you choose what you want to startup, which kernel
[01:02] <Nossace> im not sure what it is called fully
[01:02] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: are you upgrading to Dapper?
[01:02] <newpZ> hi there.. i have 2 laptops, exactly the same.. I installed dapper when it first came out on both, 1 laptop is now running like it has no memory and real slow... i cant find anything up anywhere.. any suggestions?
[01:03] <unfg> itchi: the light on the back of the card is on.. and so is the light on the router
[01:03] <SAS_Spidey01> I'm planning on installing it over my FreeBSD partition
[01:03] <georgy> CrapImAGhost : right, your card isn't up
[01:03] <unfg> ok so is that like a driver issue?
[01:03] <Nossace> ultimately i just want to restore my windows ntfs partition to the factory installation via the dell pc restore partition
[01:03] <SAS_Spidey01> I need to use this machine for testing PC-BSD stuff, and it won't tripple boot WinXP, FreeBSD, and PC-BSD Beta's
[01:03] <georgy> unfg : maybe, but first try sudo ifup eth0
[01:04] <SB|nblracer> itchi how do i open the Xcon file
[01:04] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: good luck!
[01:04] <newpZ> its like the hard drive turns and turns when i minimize or do just about anything
[01:04] <Gabby_Hayes> good luck,  babwe
[01:04] <unfg> says souldent read interfaces files.. unknown method
[01:04] <itchi> SB|nblracer: With an text editor, take nano for example
[01:04] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: i think your issue was that the md5sum of the iso didnt match the servers md5sum of the iso
[01:04] <newpZ> but running top, i dont see anything chewing up cpu or mem
[01:05] <SAS_Spidey01> Thank you tiredbones , I hope it works
[01:05] <gnomefreak> so we do it without iso ;)
[01:05] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: I think so, too.
[01:05] <SB|nblracer> xorg.conf
[01:05] <itchi> SB|nblracer: nano /path/of/my_file
[01:05] <babwe> ..thx gabby is it a hrd one
[01:05] <babwe> *ard
[01:06] <itchi> SB|nblracer: But if it's some file that is protected and only can view by admins then you need to do 'sudo nano /path/of/my_file'
[01:06] <unfg> itchi: says on line 10 there is a unknown method.. ifup: couldent read /etc/network/interfaces
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> Itch thanks again
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> itchi im looking at the file now
[01:06] <Travellis> So, here is my issue.
[01:06] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You are welcome ;-)
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> what show i be looking for
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> should
[01:06] <itchi> unfg: Is there an typo in the config file?
[01:07] <Travellis> I received a "VIOLATON TICKET". Is anyone familiar with anything involving these?
[01:07] <unfg> i dont think so.. should i try retyping everthing?
[01:07] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Look to ...
[01:07] <itchi> Section "Device"
[01:07] <gnomefreak> Travellis: what were you doing to get it?
[01:08] <itchi> SB|nblracer: There in that section you have an line with 'Driver "somethings"'
[01:08] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Tell which driver you use
[01:08] <newpZ> hi how can i tell how much memory is in my laptop and how much is being used?
[01:08] <Travellis> I was riding the city transit, which utilizes an honor system, and I was fined for having no valid proof of payment.
[01:08] <georgy> unfg : wich card to you have ?
[01:08] <gnomefreak> Travellis: join #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[01:08] <itchi> newpZ: use 'free'
[01:08] <SB|nblracer> itchi imput devices?
[01:08] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Go below
[01:09] <SB|nblracer> Ok i found it
[01:09] <SB|nblracer> it spots the correct video card
[01:09] <SB|nblracer> Driver ati
[01:09] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Maybe some params are not yet right, Like resolution and refresh rate
[01:10] <haploid_> I have the following usb device issue:  under fedora core, I am able to read from /dev/hiddev0 ( a shipping scale ), whereas under ubuntu 6.06.1, reading from /dev/hiddev0 (the device IS recognized just fine in /var/log/messages ) using cat does NOT return data like it does under fedora
[01:10] <asdfa> does anyone know of a setting to turn off the laptop fan?
[01:10] <unfg> lol thanks itchi and georgy it was a typo.. dchp instead of dhcp
[01:10] <georgy> unfg : np
[01:11] <SB|nblracer> itchi how do i go about correcting the refresh rate
[01:11] <SB|nblracer> and why do you think it is a graghic issuie
[01:11] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Maybe replace the ati with 'vesa' or 'vga' that work with almost every card. But change the the colordept to 16, just to test??
[01:11] <eugman> Can anyone tell me how I can record the sound output of a program?
[01:12] <asdfa> anyone know of a way to turn off the laptop fan?
[01:12] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Here on debian, you can do 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg', i'm not sure if that still work with Ubuntu. Like it's Debian derivated, normaly yes
[01:12] <unfg> *sigh* sorry guys its still not up yet
[01:12] <FunnyLookinHat> asdfa, I doubt you would want to even if you did have a way...  it's largely controlled by the BIOS so that your CPU doesn't overheat.
[01:12] <dave_> hows the edgy beta? anyone trying it?
[01:12] <FunnyLookinHat> dave_, I'm running it now, works great!
[01:12] <georgy> unfg : sudo ifup eth0
[01:12] <unfg> when i run sudo ifup eth0 is says its already configured
[01:13] <cafuego> asdfa: easy way: /dev/hammer
[01:13] <itchi> install process 63%
[01:13] <THX-1138> !fan
[01:13] <ubotu> fan is Control the fan  on/off  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-12058.html
[01:13] <Wodger> well in a laptop be the harddrive that cooks
[01:13] <itchi> unfg: Maybe restart the network?
[01:13] <georgy> unfg : then sudo ifdown eth0, then sudo ifup eth0
[01:13] <Wodger> the cpu will just crash
[01:13] <cafuego> Wodger: depends on the cpu.
[01:13] <FunnyLookinHat> Wodger, yea, good pt.
[01:13] <dave_> any bugs?
[01:13] <unfg> georgy: k ill try that brb
[01:13] <asdfa> cafuego: can you expand on what you mean?
[01:13] <FunnyLookinHat> dave_, some packages are messed up with dependancy issues...
[01:13] <cafuego> at 90+C it may take stuff with it.
[01:14] <eugman> Can anyone tell me how I can record the sound output of a program?
[01:14] <alex_ubuntu> OK now I've done it... installed ubuntu-desktop on my 606 server and lost the video... what's next
[01:14] <FunnyLookinHat> dave_, sorry to be a bum, but this should be in #ubuntu+1 just to keep the scatter-chat out of here  : )
[01:14] <SB|nblracer> itchi im under section "screen" and you want me to change it to a 16 depth?
[01:14] <Wodger> audacity probably
[01:14] <dave_> o
[01:14] <njal> I have me here a region 0 DVD that I have bought and would like to watch under ubuntu but the disc does not want to mount, what could the problem be?
[01:14] <dave_> oh ok, sorry
[01:14] <cafuego> asdfa: The easiest way to disable the fan is to destroy it physically. However, no fan emans you'll get crashes within a few minuites due to overheating.
[01:14] <FunnyLookinHat> alex_ubuntu, try a control+alt+F1
[01:14] <THX-1138> cafuego is right. - you need a fan. unless you ae outdoors in alask
[01:14] <asdfa> cafuego:  ahh joke
[01:14] <FunnyLookinHat> alex_ubuntu, if that doesn't bring up a console then ...   "uh oh"
[01:14] <asdfa> went right over my head
[01:14] <effie_jayx> SB|nblracer,  bash?
[01:14] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Depend a bit if you have try with the vesa or vga driver
[01:14] <newpZ> does this look like it should be running slow? Mem: total: 709644     used:236892     free:472752         shared:0       buffers:3104      cached:73064 -/+ buffers/cache:     160724     548920 Swap:      1622524     244416    1378108
[01:14] <alex_ubuntu> by flicking the power button I now have console
[01:15] <cafuego> newpZ: In a Pentium 133, yes.
[01:15] <finalbeta> Hello, I have a firewire hard disk attached, how do I make ubuntu detect/mount it?
[01:15] <newpZ> hehe thats what i was thinking
[01:15] <alex_ubuntu> how do I turnn off the gnome or demand a lower resolution
[01:15] <itchi> SB|nblracer: There is an need to know what's going wrong, you know now where it's the config file of the gfx. Look a bit in the xorg log file?? /var/log/Xorg.log
[01:15] <unfg> georgy: ok now after i sudo ifup again it says no DCHP offers
[01:15] <newpZ> why in the hell does this laptop run so slow
[01:15] <unfg> but this windows pc is using dchp
[01:16] <cafuego> newpZ: You're using 250 Mb of swap, if that's being swapped in and out often, it'll cause slowdowns.
[01:16] <Nossace> nuked_omen: what are these things that you mentioned, when you said reinstall windows and modify lilo, rcl , opps ?
[01:16] <eugman> newpZ, because it has no legs?
[01:16] <cafuego> 1.6GB of  swap is a *lot* actually
[01:16] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Normally a such problem is not realy frequent, like normally you need to get an error screen and he tell you why it's not yet working right
[01:16] <THX-1138> newpZ - Have you installed an acellerated video driver?
[01:16] <newpZ> cafuego, the hard drive works like its constantly swapping
[01:16] <SB|nblracer> effie_jayx?
[01:17] <cafuego> newpZ: Well, you got 470Mb of free ram, turn off swap and see how you go.
[01:17] <effie_jayx> SB|nblracer,  sorry my mistake
[01:17] <newpZ> THX-1138, thats actually a good point... i couldnt get the nvidia driver working and left it half way working. no direct rendering but using the right driver
[01:17] <georgy> unfg : what's the range of you router 192.168.X.X or 10.0.x.X ?
[01:17] <unfg> georgy: it says sendinf DHCPDiSCOVERY on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
[01:17] <codecaine> sound is not sync with flash videos on webpages how can I fix that?
[01:17] <unfg> 192.168.2.x
[01:18] <newpZ> im wondering if i get the vidcard working right if it will solve my issues
[01:18] <newpZ> i guess i can try vga
[01:18] <georgy> unfg : try ifconfig eth0 192.168.2.15 and try to ping the router
[01:18] <bruenig> codecaine, reverse engineer flash and write a plugin that doesn't suck or hope adobe gets out the flash 9 beta soon
[01:18] <georgy> unf : * sudo
[01:18] <itchi> SB|nblracer: An interesting log file is the /var/log/messages also 'sudo dmesg'
[01:18] <codecaine> oh so no easy solution :p
[01:18] <THX-1138> dunno,  don't think swapping is related to the video card.
[01:18] <eugman> codecaine, you could in theory install flash on ie on wine and run flash programs with that.
[01:19] <gh0zt> hi
[01:19] <newpZ> its strange cause i have 2 identical laptops. followed the same nvdia guide and ths laptop will not direct render
[01:19] <bruenig> when flash is closed, there is not much you can do, pray to the software gods that the developers aren't incompetent morons
[01:19] <codecaine> try to stay away from windows programs
[01:19] <gh0zt> fun
[01:19] <newpZ> ewww wine
[01:19] <itchi> newpZ: Because an laptop is not to play with it, but to work with :-p
[01:19] <unfg> georgy: it says destination host unreacable
[01:19] <newpZ> yup and my other works perfectly
[01:19] <newpZ> hehe
[01:20] <alscorpion> Hi guys ... any webserver pro ??
[01:20] <haploid_> does ubuntu intercept raw device data for hiddev devices or something ?
[01:20] <eugman> So can anyone here tell me how I can save what gets sent to my speakers as a wav file?
[01:20] <THX-1138> newpZ - ATI just doesn't help open source as much as it might.
[01:20] <georgy> unfg : what card to you have ?
[01:20] <haploid_> cat /dev/hiddev0 results in no data at all( same device on fedora does )
[01:20] <foo> When I ssh out .. I am getting this problem: -bash-3.1$ ssh flyupload-backend
[01:20] <foo> Host key verification failed.
[01:20] <foo> Any ideas?
[01:20] <cafuego> alscorpion: Lots, but unless you ask your question, they can't help.
[01:20] <newpZ> yeah no kidden
[01:20] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Still finding some info?
[01:20] <Wodger> audacity will record
[01:20] <newpZ> i need to mess with it somemore
[01:20] <newpZ> maybe ill do that now
[01:21] <alscorpion> cafuego, Its not a big deal ... I have a problem with LAMP server
[01:21] <eugman> Wodger, ok I'll give that a try.
[01:21] <unfg> georgy: accton technology corp SMC2-1211TX (rev 10)
[01:21] <eugman> Alscorpian, his point is out crystal balls are in the shop right now so no mind reading powers are available currently.
[01:21] <eugman> er, our crystal balls.
[01:22] <THX-1138> eugman - do the women go crazy over that kind?
[01:22] <alscorpion> how to check if PHP5 is working ???
[01:23] <cmatheson> i have 5 video cards (nvidia) in my computer, and i would like some screens to duplicate others... i could do this using vnc, but is there a cleaner way? (maybe at the x-server level?)
[01:23] <eugman> THX-1138, naw. They can clearly see you're nuts.
[01:23] <cafuego> alscorpion: cd /var/www/; echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" > test.php; chmod 644 test.php; http://localhost:test.php
[01:23] <cafuego> well, nearly
[01:24] <SB|nblracer> itchi i restarted
[01:24] <jadacyrus> is there a way to get gnome-terminal to change profiles or atleast background color when I ssh into another computer, this way I can easily distinguish which terminal is SSH and which is a local terminal
[01:24] <SB|nblracer> and went in console to login
[01:24] <cafuego>  http://localhost/test.php
[01:24] <unfg> georgy: is that the info ya needed?
[01:24] <SB|nblracer> i get -bash cannot crate temp file for here document. no space left on device
[01:24] <georgy> unfg: yes, can you pastebin your lsmod
[01:25] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Sorry my enlgish is a bit bad
[01:25] <itchi> SB|nblracer: hhhmm
[01:25] <cafuego> SB|nblracer: `df -h'
[01:25] <itchi> SB|nblracer:  Do df -h
[01:25] <SB|nblracer> what is df-h
[01:25] <unfg> yea hold on
[01:26] <cafuego> shows you that your disk is full
[01:26] <itchi> SB|nblracer: To see the disk file usage
[01:26] <itchi> arg, i'm bit slow :-p
[01:26] <SB|nblracer> command not found
[01:26] <codecaine> whats a program that record video from ur webcam?
[01:26] <unfg> georgy: actually no i cant its on a different computer and its alot to type over
[01:27] <alscorpion> cafuego, my problem is : when i try to open my server "php file" i get a downloading pop up.
[01:27] <SB|nblracer> can i type the df-h any where
[01:27] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Sure you did not type an eror? Just 'df -h' without the both ' '
[01:27] <SB|nblracer> io
[01:27] <georgy> ung : ok
[01:27] <itchi> SB|nblracer: wait
[01:28] <alscorpion> cafuego, and after checking my apache2 config ... and everything is cool .. i try to restart it ... but i get this msg (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::] :80
[01:28] <alscorpion> no listening sockets available, shutting down
[01:28] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Probably some things are not yet installed. Like you have an strange trouble. Maybe you get these troubles because the disk (partition) is full and not yet everything is been  there
[01:28] <SB|nblracer> 'forgot `'
[01:29] <MystaMax> quick question, how do I tell what user is allowed to run CGI (perl) scripts???
[01:29] <ToHellWithGA> how can i find the list of "recommended" packages for a package i've already installed?
[01:30] <THX-1138> #apache freenode
[01:30] <SB|nblracer> itchi when i do the `df-h' all what happens is a get a return
[01:30] <SB|nblracer> >
[01:30] <itchi> ToHellWithGA: With apt-cache show <pkg> for example
[01:30] <SB|nblracer> without the hostname
[01:30] <bruenig> ToHellWithGA, the reocmmended packages are probably attached to the package you are installing not to your particular system
[01:31] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Is there been an space between df and -h?
[01:31] <ToHellWithGA> bruenig: the ones i'm looking for are fonts
[01:31] <unfg> georgy: should i look for something in particular?
[01:31] <SB|nblracer> no
[01:31] <unfg> it scrolled more text than i can read
[01:32] <Nossace> bye bye guys, thanks
[01:32] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You need to set an space between; 'df -h'
[01:32] <MystaMax> anyone point me in the correct direction?
[01:32] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Or maybe just 'df' but the -h is the human reable option, usefuller
[01:32] <Knuta> is it possible to tell the dapper livecd _not_ to mount local filesystem? I'm doing surgery on a laptop with a semi-dead disk.
[01:32] <georgy> unfg : lsmod | less
[01:33] <jadacyrus> Does anybody know what an NVRM Xid error means?
[01:34] <unfg> georgy: when i set it as a static ip the other pcs on the network could ping the box.. also i typed the | less command.. do you want me to type it all or look for something in particular
[01:34] <SB|nblracer> itchi nothing is working
[01:35] <SB|nblracer> dose it need to show the host anme on each line like before?
[01:35] <SB|nblracer> all their is >
[01:35] <itchi> SB|nblracer: I not understand
[01:35] <georgy> unfg : look if the tulip and the rtl8139 is loaded
[01:35] <itchi> SB|nblracer: hhhmm you are stuck before that > sign?
[01:35] <itchi> SB|nblracer: ctrl+c
[01:36] <SB|nblracer> thanks
[01:36] <itchi> SB|nblracer: It react so because you have probably use one ' sign
[01:36] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Just type    df -h
[01:36] <SB|nblracer> this is what im typing `df -h'
[01:37] <itchi> SB|nblracer: lol
[01:37] <georgy> unfg : you can ping the computer in static ip ?
[01:37] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Type just   df -h
[01:37] <Dreamglider> ok in terminal how can i copy a dir with all files and sub dirs to my usb disk
[01:37] <mcphail> SB|nblracer: don't type the ` or ' signs
[01:37] <SB|nblracer> df -h works
[01:37] <unfg> georgy: neither are on that list
[01:37] <itchi> SB|nblracer: How much left?
[01:37] <mr-russ> what should I use as the default mail agent to get a sendmail binary to use from the command line and send to a real MTA?
[01:38] <SB|nblracer> looks full
[01:38] <MikeyMike> how can i ls to show the largest files first regardless of location?
[01:38] <georgy> unfg : pastebin the list, if you want
[01:38] <SB|nblracer> under that partion
[01:38] <itchi> SB|nblracer: How great is that partition?
[01:38] <MikeyMike> i want to search my entire root for the largest files first
[01:38] <SB|nblracer> its the whole drive
[01:38] <itchi> SB|nblracer: I guess you have an failed install, lack of space, that's why you have that strange trouble i think. You are go on an new install with an bigger partition
[01:38] <unfg> georgy: do you want everything.. or just the modules.. or just the used by colum
[01:39] <SB|nblracer> its a 2Gb drive
[01:39] <SB|nblracer> but shows up as 1.7
[01:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: ow
[01:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: That's a bit short i think
[01:39] <georgy> unfg : sorry, but everything
[01:39] <haploid_> this issue is costing us money, so a quick 200$ is on offer here for a solution
[01:39] <Knuta> MikeyMike: use find with -printf and some size constraints, then pipe the whole thing into sort.
[01:39] <MikeyMike> Knuta,  thats sorta vague :( can you help a little more?
[01:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: My install is now on 86% and is already 2,3GB
[01:39] <SB|nblracer> but under varone and varlock it says it 1% used
[01:40] <zeo> wenas
[01:40] <LjL> MikeyMike: "find -printf "%s %f" | sort -n"
[01:40] <itchi> SB|nblracer: varone and varlock?
[01:40] <LjL> !es
[01:40] <MikeyMike> thanks
[01:40] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[01:40] <zeo> gracas
[01:40] <SB|nblracer> its under my partion when i did that command
[01:40] <JoaoJoao> hello
[01:40] <MikeyMike> what are those 2 variables?
[01:40] <clsoX> hi
[01:40] <MikeyMike> %s %f
[01:40] <LjL> MikeyMike: size, and filename
[01:40] <zeo> hi cls
[01:41] <SB|nblracer> same with udev
[01:41] <LjL> MikeyMike: (if i got them right, that is... i didn't check the manpage)
[01:41] <MikeyMike> LjL,  is there uspposed to be a pipe
[01:41] <MikeyMike> or something
[01:41] <SB|nblracer> but i guess i will get a bigger driver
[01:41] <MikeyMike> it tried to find p r i n t  f
[01:41] <MikeyMike> illegal options
[01:41] <MikeyMike> rather
[01:41] <MikeyMike> and couldn't find %f or %s
[01:41] <clsoX> zeo, grr
[01:41] <itchi> SB|nblracer: I think you need to get an bigger hdd or do an selective install, that mean, installing the bare minimal and install what you need. Like the default Ubuntu install is a bit to big for your hdd
[01:41] <LjL> MikeyMike: there should be a dash
[01:41] <JoaoJoao> damn JMicron bug, this is driving me craaaaaaaazy
[01:41] <zeo> jaja
[01:41] <MikeyMike> LjL,  find -printf "%s %f" | sort -n
[01:41] <LjL> MikeyMike:    find -printf "%s %f" | sort -n
[01:41] <LjL> yeah
[01:42] <MikeyMike> yea
[01:42] <LjL> well let me check
[01:42] <MikeyMike> it tried to pass printf to find
[01:42] <MikeyMike> each one was an illegal option
[01:42] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Some are special /partitions/ used for the system, not take to many care about it right now. You gona learn more about these later
[01:42] <opixus> Im having a problem with wine, when i run winecfg and go to the audio tab i get this error :   ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory

[01:42] <MikeyMike> the characters p r i n t  f
[01:42] <LjL> MikeyMike: ah sorry, find -printf "%s %f\n" | sort -n
[01:42] <JoaoJoao> anyone knows if I can copy the Ubuntu CD to an external USB drive and boot from it?
[01:42] <MikeyMike> same problem
[01:42] <SB|nblracer> thanks for your time itchi
[01:42] <LjL> MikeyMike: well, this works here. paste your output please?

[01:43] <SB|nblracer> the system has 2 other HDD i may try
[01:43] <billytwowilly> Hi, I want all my web browsing on this machine to be ssh tunneled through my home computer. can someone help me set this up?
[01:43] <LjL> err, i meant in the pastebin
[01:43] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Thanks to try these great software man ;-) And when i was knowing nothings about it, many guys have give lots and lots of his free time to learn me too ;-)
[01:43] <MikeyMike> yeah i know.... im so quick to paste in irc sometimes because of the other channel i frequent
[01:43] <MikeyMike> it was an accident
[01:43] <SB|nblracer> or see if i can get another driver from a buddy
[01:43] <LjL> MikeyMike: uhm... i'm baffled
[01:43] <SB|nblracer> later
[01:44] <fourat> my system is running with UTF8 as default, i would like to change that, anyone can help ?
[01:44] <MikeyMike> LjL,  perhaps its because its a mac.....?
[01:44] <MikeyMike> LjL,  :(
[01:44] <LjL> MikeyMike: a mac with ubuntu, or a mac with macos?
[01:44] <MikeyMike> LjL,  with os x :)
[01:44] <newpZ> belive it or not, i got direct rendering working on this laptop and it seems to be running better
[01:44] <alex_ubuntu> OK now I've done it... installed ubuntu-desktop on my 606 server and lost the video... what's next
[01:44] <LjL> MikeyMike: ah, well, then yeah, i guess that's it ;-) probably uses a different version of find... look at the man and see what it wants instead of -printf
[01:44] <MikeyMike> okay
[01:45] <newpZ> alex_ubuntu, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:45] <MikeyMike> LjL,  i will do that :)
[01:45] <MikeyMike> LjL,  im not sure
[01:45] <MikeyMike> there's -print and print0
[01:46] <unfg> georgy: just a quick question.. in ifconfig eth0 it hasinet addr: 192.168.2.200 and bcast:192.168.2.255 and says UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST
[01:46] <Dreamglider> ok in terminal how can i copy a dir with all files and sub dirs to my usb disk
[01:46] <LjL> MikeyMike: not useful i'm afraid
[01:46] <MikeyMike> LjL,  yea
[01:46] <unfg> does that mean its broadcasting a DHCP?
[01:46] <MikeyMike> its okay thanks you got me on the right page.... i was still trying ot use LS
[01:46] <opixus> Im having a problem with wine, when i run winecfg and go to the audio tab i get this error :   ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory   Creating link /home/robert/.kde/socket-opixus.  can't create mcop directory
[01:46] <joeCoT> cp -r dir_name /path/to/usbdrive
[01:47] <georgy> unfg : yes
[01:47] <MikeyMike> LjL,  what does the -printf entry say in the manpage for find?
[01:47] <unfg> georgy: ok how do i turn off broadcast?
[01:47] <unfg> i can ping it from this machine
[01:47] <unfg> but i cant ping its hostname
[01:47] <unfg> i can only hit the IP
[01:47] <LjL> MikeyMike: you probably want the "-ls" option (i'm reading the Darwin man page)
[01:47] <MikeyMike> -ls hmm
[01:48] <LjL> MikeyMike: nevermind printf, you just don't have it on darwin
[01:48] <MikeyMike> ok
[01:48] <georgy> unfg : i think you maybe the wrong module loaded
[01:48] <MikeyMike> i dont understand these flags at all
[01:48] <MikeyMike> the primary always evaluates to true........ the primary what ? lol
[01:48] <LjL> MikeyMike: hold on a second, i should be able to guess the right syntax
[01:48] <MikeyMike> okay
[01:48] <simon__> Hi guys do u know a great application for visual system monitoring
[01:48] <georgy> unfg : for hostname you need a dns server
[01:48] <unfg> georgy: how do i tell.. i just want it to be a client on my network.. not a dhcp server
[01:49] <unfg> georgy: my router should act as the dns right? i can ping all the other pcs in the house
[01:49] <newpZ> dapper uses ext2?
[01:49] <LjL> MikeyMike: do you have awk on mac os? (try typing "awk")
[01:49] <MikeyMike> okay
[01:49] <MikeyMike> yep
[01:49] <LjL> MikeyMike: lacking that, do you have "cut"?
[01:49] <LjL> MikeyMike: ok
[01:49] <MikeyMike> cut too
[01:49] <SuperMiguel> !gnu
[01:50] <ubotu> G(NU's) N(ot) U(nix). A project that aimed to develop a complete operating system of Free Software, which Ubuntu is based on. See http://gnu.org
[01:50] <georgy> unfg : yes, but not for the linux hostname
[01:50] <LjL> MikeyMike: try   find -ls | awk ' { print $7 } ' | sort -n
[01:50] <runa> hey :) what can I use to translate a subtitle in subrip format to srt?
[01:50] <MikeyMike> illegal option for find -- l
[01:50] <LjL> uh...
[01:50] <MikeyMike> thast strange
[01:50] <georgy> runa : I use jubler
[01:51] <LjL> MikeyMike: whoops, no it's not. i *thought* i was looking at the Darwin man page, but i was not =)
[01:51] <unfg> georgy: ok but since it has my router as its nameserver.. it should be able to resolve my other pcs.. when i try to ping themi get host not found
[01:51] <MikeyMike> LjL,
[01:51] <MikeyMike> find: illegal option -- l
[01:51] <MikeyMike> lol
[01:51] <MikeyMike> what in the world
[01:51] <MikeyMike> you didnt even pass -l to find
[01:51] <LjL> uhm well actually, i'm not sure i was not... do you have "-ls" mentioned on your man page?
[01:51] <runa> georgy: java. let's see
[01:51] <MikeyMike> yea i do
[01:51] <MikeyMike> LjL,  can i query you with the entry
[01:51] <fourat> my system is running with UTF8 as default, i would like to change that, anyone can help ?
[01:52] <MikeyMike> LjL,  ?
[01:52] <LjL> MikeyMike: try   find . -ls | awk ' { print $7 } ' | sort -n
[01:52] <unfg> georgy: heres something else.. i can ping the other PCs behind the router by IP but not by hostname
[01:52] <MikeyMike> LjL,  hahah that displayed a TON of numbers
[01:52] <MikeyMike> ending in largest
[01:52] <LjL> MikeyMike: ok, that's correct
[01:52] <MikeyMike> LjL,  yeah but no filenames or nothing haha
[01:53] <LjL> MikeyMike: try   find . -ls | awk ' { print $7 " " $9 } ' | sort -n
[01:53] <stribb> -printf is a good answer here
[01:53] <georgy> unfg: you right, but it seems that you have a wrong module loaded, that's why I asked you to pastebin your lsmod
[01:53] <MikeyMike> shows a 2 digit number after the main number
[01:53] <LjL> stribb: he's on mac os...
[01:53] <bsytko> Hi, is it possible to use a Kunbutu repository for Ubuntu? I want to install the newest Amarok and I only see a Kubuntu repository
[01:53] <MikeyMike> LjL,  here's an example 18453168 29
[01:53] <MikeyMike> 22423304 8
[01:53] <MikeyMike> 22908766 13
[01:53] <MikeyMike> lol
[01:53] <stribb> Oh. So he's on the right channel then.
[01:53] <MikeyMike> :)
[01:53] <MikeyMike> i figured it would be clo0se enough....
[01:54] <SuperMiguel> there is any way to put an access password to an apache2 server?
[01:54] <LjL> MikeyMike: well, it's probably the wrong field of ls then... try $10, or $8, or something, instead of $9
[01:54] <MikeyMike> the mac ppl are all like DONT TOUCH ANYTHING... LEAVE IT ALONE...
[01:54] <stribb> Why?
[01:54] <LjL> stribb: yeah :)
[01:54] <opixus> bsytko: yes it is
[01:54] <bsytko> opixua: Thank you
[01:54] <armin> Yes, I just installed Amarok 1.4.3 on Ubuntu
[01:54] <mcphail> SuperMiguel: of course
[01:54] <SuperMiguel> mcphail: how?
[01:54] <MikeyMike> LjL,  getting closer.... first it was year..... now its time..... haha
[01:54] <LjL> MikeyMike: (you possibly need ${10} instead of $10, for two digit numbers)
[01:54] <alex_ubuntu> newpZ; thanks, anyway to test this reconfig before using it
[01:54] <MikeyMike> LjL,  now its location haha
[01:55] <LjL> MikeyMike: yeah, well, the path name should be there somewhere =)
[01:55] <stribb> SuperMiguel: do you just want to password-protect the whole server?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> 11 was path
[01:55] <MikeyMike> :)
[01:55] <unfg> georgy: can you just tell me which module needs to be loaded?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> second variable should be $11
[01:55] <MikeyMike> for path
[01:55] <MikeyMike> whats the first variable?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> size?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> can it be re-displayed in megs
[01:55] <mcphail> SuperMiguel: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html
[01:55] <SuperMiguel> stribb: i want that just me can access to the web page
[01:55] <stribb> number of blocks used, iirc
[01:55] <LjL> MikeyMike: apparently the man page forgot about some fields... when i counted it, filename would have turned out to be $9 :)
[01:55] <MikeyMike> oh okay
[01:55] <stribb> SuperMiguel: oh, constrain it to serving on 127.0.0.1 then
[01:55] <MikeyMike> LjL,  path is 11 if im not mistaken :)
[01:55] <LjL> MikeyMike: don't ask for too much
[01:56] <MikeyMike> with filenames.....
[01:56] <MikeyMike> LjL,   haha
[01:56] <MikeyMike> thanks :)
[01:56] <MikeyMike> see once i played with the variables i understood the command
[01:56] <georgy> unfg : try sudo modprobe tulip
[01:56] <MikeyMike> im a spatial learner.....
[01:56] <MikeyMike> lol
[01:56] <stribb> SuperMiguel: with Listen 127.0.0.1:80
[01:56] <SuperMiguel> stribb: i want to have acess from other places but just me
[01:56] <MikeyMike> LjL,  thanks alot
[01:56] <stribb> SuperMiguel: so .... <sigh> you want to put password-protection on every page?
[01:57] <MikeyMike> now im going to save that command and dissect it
[01:57] <mcphail> SuperMiguel: follow the howto i posted
[01:57] <MikeyMike> so i can use it often :)
[01:57] <jordan> I am using Edgy with an ATI card and DRI doesn't work with fglrx ( I have already disabled the composite extention ).
[01:57] <SuperMiguel> stribb: yep
[01:57] <stribb> SuperMiguel: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html
[01:57] <LjL> MikeyMike: find . -ls | awk ' { print $7/(1024*1024) " " $11 } ' | sort -n
[01:58] <MikeyMike> LjL,  HAHAHA AMAZING
[01:58] <MikeyMike> LjL,  thanks :)
[01:58] <MikeyMike> i see what you did too... divided by 1024
[01:59] <stribb> by 1024*1024 even
[01:59] <MikeyMike> why does it have to be 1024*1024
[01:59] <stribb> to get megs
[01:59] <MikeyMike> oh right
[01:59] <MikeyMike> otherwise its not megs
[01:59] <MikeyMike> its kb
[02:00] <stribb> I'm dead impressed by the support levels on #ubuntu
[02:00] <MikeyMike> yah they even help ppl not using ubuntu...... haha
[02:00] <MikeyMike> well i am an ubuntu user actually....
[02:00] <stribb> I think I would probably last 5 minutes before going insane and running rampage around the centre of Tokyo
[02:00] <haploid_> tf
[02:01] <MikeyMike> stribb,  you live in japan? :)
[02:01] <stribb> MikeyMike: not yet
[02:01] <MikeyMike> stribb,  planning to?
[02:01] <strav> anyone familiar with vgetty (and perhaps intel 536ep0 modems?)
[02:01] <alex_ubuntu> newpZ; thanks it works great.. KUDOS
[02:01] <orbital04> hello! How can I get Totem (comes with dapper) to play dvd's? It want 'proprietary plugins', I did the EasyUbuntu install of plugins and still Totem won't play dvd's........what to do?
[02:01] <stribb> I might just fly there, go green and scaly and *then* run rampage.
[02:02] <MikeyMike> stribb,  that works.....
[02:02] <stribb> Hm, upon further reflection, I am already green and scaly.
[02:02] <ubutom> !dvd > orbital04
[02:02] <LjL> MikeyMike: actually, it depends on what "megs" you wanted
[02:02] <MikeyMike> LjL,  megabytes
[02:02] <MikeyMike> ?
[02:02] <MikeyMike> :)
[02:02] <jordan> orbital04, First, you know that DVD playback on linux is of questionable legality.
[02:03] <LjL> MikeyMike: strictly speaking, a "megabyte" is 1000000 bytes. a "mebibyte" is 1024*1024 bytews
[02:03] <stribb> *snork*
[02:03] <MikeyMike> hey no mebibytes
[02:03] <WhatThe> orbital04, try automatix
[02:03] <MikeyMike> im not with tthat stupid standard
[02:03] <LjL> MikeyMike: most often though, when one says "megabyte" they really mean "mebibytes"
[02:03] <MikeyMike> what?
[02:03] <jordan> orbital04, If you are OK with that ( Or don't live in the U.S ) I can help you :)
[02:03] <MikeyMike> since when
[02:03] <orbital04> i'm ok, your ok ;)
[02:04] <LjL> MikeyMike: since a long time, at least in the majority of computing people... 1k=1024
[02:04] <MikeyMike> yerah
[02:04] <MikeyMike> ahhhh i see what you're saying
[02:04] <orbital04> i guess automatix may have some extras in there that might help...
[02:04] <stribb> A megabyte is 1024**3 bytes
[02:04] <MikeyMike> yeah i know
[02:04] <jordan> orbital04, Wait a second while I find the repository.
[02:04] <MikeyMike> mega in other mediums is not 1024
[02:04] <MikeyMike> only in computers
[02:04] <LjL> stribb: ^3?
[02:04] <WhatThe> yep, it helped me out a heap. Installs all manor of usefull stuff
[02:05] <LjL> stribb: excuse me but, one byte is 1024^0, one kilobyte (well, kibibyte) is 1024^1, one megabyte (mebibyte) is 1024^2...
[02:05] <LjL> stribb: ah :)
[02:05] <MikeyMike> LjL,  yeah its so silly that computers couldn't measure data the "right" way
[02:05] <MikeyMike> mega = 1000 damnit.
[02:05] <MikeyMike> :-P
[02:06] <MikeyMike> all those stray bits add up when you get into the gigs
[02:06] <LjL> MikeyMike: they can. it's just that computing people tend to think in terms of powers of two... it's easier for many things
[02:06] <MikeyMike> hd manufacturers take advantage of this....
[02:06] <MikeyMike> LjL,  o
[02:06] <LjL> MikeyMike: hd manufacturers actually use powers of *ten* usually -- they take advantage of the fact that people think they're actually using powers of two
[02:06] <MikeyMike> LjL,  someone told me to do du -h hahaha
[02:07] <MikeyMike> wow
[02:07] <MikeyMike> super hax then...
[02:07] <stribb> LjL: and people just know that the hard disk manufacturers short change them
[02:07] <LjL> MikeyMike: that only shows directories
[02:07] <MikeyMike> true
[02:07] <MikeyMike> LjL,  i just realized this
[02:07] <jordan> orbital04, OK, I found the site but it seems to be down ( http://plf.zarg.org )
[02:07] <MikeyMike> LjL,  it doesn' sort by size either
[02:07] <esac> ive had my computer just randomly reboot twice today. any ideas how i can figure out why
[02:08] <LjL> MikeyMike: well no, you still need a | sort -n after that
[02:08] <stribb> how's about du -ak
[02:08] <LjL> stribb: looks good :)
[02:08] <MikeyMike> LjL,  that still doesnt work
[02:08] <jordan> orbital04, Mabie the project is defunct :) Sorry, I havn't done this is a while :)
[02:08] <georgy> jordan : deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/ dapper free non-free
[02:08] <MikeyMike> oh wait
[02:09] <newpZ> alex_ubuntu, glad to hear it!
[02:09] <Zoffix> Hi, I'm unintalling VMPlayer and I'm getting this message in the console, and this annoying beeping every 5 seconds """Message from syslogd@zoffix at Mon Oct  9 20:06:51 2006 ...zoffix kernel: [17225107.384000]  unregister_netdevice: waiting for vmnet1 to become free. Usage count = 1""""
[02:09] <Zoffix> what do I do?
[02:09] <shwag> how do I setup apache to execute a cgi file ?
[02:09] <LjL> stribb: well, for asking a Mac OS question on here, he deserved all that find and awk rambling anyway :P
[02:09] <newpZ> now how do u go about installing a mouse theme in gnome?
[02:09] <jordan> georgy, Does that have libdvdcss?
[02:09] <Zoffix> shwag: ask in #apache
[02:09] <georgy> jordan : yes and codecs
[02:09] <stribb> LjL: yeah :)
[02:10] <orbital04> i'll take a looksee..
[02:10] <stribb> What's a mouse theme?
[02:10] <LjL> stribb: mouse *pointer* theme...
[02:11] <jordan> orbital04, Add "deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/ dapper free non-free" to your sources.list.
[02:11] <georgy> orbital : you have to put this line in your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[02:11] <jordan> orbital04, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:11] <stribb> LjL: thanks
[02:11] <tich> i have a wierd problem-- my external drive was formatted on my partners mac and now it won't let me do stuff. how can i change this without reformatting?
[02:12] <Jbirk> Installing Ubuntu on my other box
[02:12] <LjL> stribb: were you thinking on the lines of apt-get install mousepad? :P
[02:12] <jadacyrus> How do you flash your bios on your laptop if there is no floppy drive and the bios update utility is a .exe ?
[02:12] <Jbirk> Do you have a Dell?
[02:12] <stribb> LjL: that sort of thing
[02:12] <LjL> stribb: (which actually is a valid package, but anyway)
[02:12] <Jbirk> If you do, I can tell you
[02:12] <foo> Any ideas on this ssh -vvv output ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26119/
[02:12] <jadacyrus> Nope, an Asus
[02:12] <Jbirk> Oh
[02:12] <Jbirk> well, you can still try this
[02:12] <Jbirk> get a USB memory stick
[02:12] <Jbirk> and make it bootable
[02:12] <jordan> orbital04, Still here?
[02:13] <Jbirk> or make a bootable CD
[02:13] <Jbirk> with a floppy disk image
[02:13] <Jbirk> I hate the live cds
[02:13] <Jbirk> they are so slow
[02:13] <jadacyrus> Jbirk: so I burn a floppy disk image onto a CD?
[02:13] <Jbirk> almost
[02:13] <ekekekekeke> i have a question. can i access my network via linux
[02:13] <Jbirk> but not exactly
[02:13] <Jbirk> Do you have Nero?
[02:13] <ekekekekeke> if i set samba ?
[02:13] <maxLF> Help! When I go to play World Of Warcraft after I select my character the game just closes off.
[02:14] <ekekekekeke> i have a windows network and machines and want to share the info.
[02:14] <jadacyrus> I have no windows computers
[02:14] <kitche> foo what's the authenciation method your trying to use?
[02:14] <Dreamglider> they are not replacments for harddisk installed oses
[02:14] <orbital04> hmmm, i downloaded something that showed up as 'bogus'
[02:14] <georgy> eke : you need to config samba
[02:14] <foo> kitche: rsa or dsa key
[02:14] <Jbirk> Here is the deal
[02:14] <Jbirk> YOu make a floppy disk image
[02:14] <ekekekekeke> georgy i used slackware before never used
[02:14] <ekekekekeke> ubuntu.
[02:14] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: you should be able to access your windows network through ubuntu without setting up samba. Samba enables windows computers to access data on an ubuntu computer.
[02:14] <Jbirk> Then you use Nero or Roxio
[02:15] <Jbirk> or CD Burner XP Pro
[02:15] <Jbirk> whatever
[02:15] <Jbirk> and you tell it to use a bootable cd
[02:15] <Jbirk> that emulates a floppy drive
[02:15] <Jbirk> then point it to the floppy image
[02:15] <Jbirk> and put in a CD
[02:15] <Jbirk> It will burn it
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> hi all
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> please, i need a simple help
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> about configuring and using
[02:15] <kitche> foo: the host must be missing the authorized_keys file is it on the host that you know of?
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> my 56k modem
[02:15] <ekekekekeke> dabaR i used slackware before.  and new into ubuntu
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> onto a laptop pc
[02:15] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: have you read this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba ?
[02:16] <orbital04> well thanks for trying, guess I'll have to resort to XP for dvd's :(
[02:16] <ekekekekeke> no i dont have ubuntu installed
[02:16] <orbital04> by now
[02:16] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: that page is on the Internet, so feel free to read it from the OS you now use.
[02:16] <maxLF> HELP! When I play world of warcraft under wine once I pick my character the game shows a loading screen then just shuts off
[02:17] <dabaR> *on the web
[02:17] <ekekekekeke> install seems hard.
[02:17] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: there is nothing to install. Like I said, no need for samba to access windows shares from ubuntu.
[02:18] <brendonjt> hey all  what is the minuim requirements for dapper?
[02:18] <LaRevolucion> no help for me? :(
[02:18] <ekekekekeke> ohhh ok.
[02:18] <daxxar> It seems a shellscript in my crontab is getting killed (regularly). The shellscript is thoroughly written and checks for all kinds of failures, and the task of it is to unpack an archive. The issue is that the contents of the archive appear halfway unpacked, and the script not registering any faults. I can't seem to reproduce it, but it happens quite often. (And is very annoying). Anyone know what the cause could be?
[02:18] <daxxar> Is there any timer or similar on how long cronjobs can run?
[02:18] <LjL> brent: i'd say, 3 gig HD and 192 megs of ram. and a pentium/K6
[02:18] <ekekekekeke> because i just want to access my files from linux machine
[02:18] <LjL> *very* minimum
[02:18] <Jbirk> Hum
[02:19] <ekekekekeke> that i have on my other machines.
[02:19] <Jbirk> Just now, I am at Prepare disk space
[02:19] <jordan> LaRevolucion, I probably can't help, but I'll try, What model is the modem?
[02:19] <nordle> hi, tried #xine but no joy.  Does gxine have OSD like xine?  I cant seem to see it working.  ie when I change volume there is no bar on screen telling me what the level is etc
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> off... i didn't know exactly
[02:19] <Jbirk> I slected Erase entire disk: IDE1 master (hda)100.0 GB Maxtor 6L100P0
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> wait
[02:19] <Jbirk> I have nothing but an XP Pro install
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> jordan
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> the problem
[02:20] <Jbirk> how long does it take to erase the disk?
[02:20] <Jbirk> It seems to be not doing anything
[02:20] <LaRevolucion> is that i want to open a console to send at commands
[02:20] <Jbirk> I am confused
[02:20] <LaRevolucion> to the modem
[02:20] <LaRevolucion> is it possible?
[02:20] <dabaR> Jbirk: wait about 10 minutes, then conclude failure.
[02:20] <Jbirk> It worked fine on my laptop
[02:20] <Jbirk> It runs like a champion
[02:20] <Jbirk> It detected the wireless and everythign
[02:20] <ekekekekeke> 56k sucks.
[02:21] <ekekekekeke> your probably in old non digital world
[02:21] <jordan> LaRevolucion, What do you mean by 'send at commands'?
[02:21] <LaRevolucion> yeah but i need
[02:21] <stribb> LaRevolucion: you have an external modem?
[02:21] <Jbirk> do I need fdisk?
[02:21] <stribb> Aww, children :)
[02:21] <Jbirk> should I pull up a terminal and fdisk this mother?
[02:21] <LaRevolucion> no i have an internal modem
[02:21] <LaRevolucion> on a laptop
[02:21] <ekekekekeke> maybe its a winmodem
[02:21] <stribb> jordan: hayes AT command set.
[02:21] <ekekekekeke> may not work.
[02:21] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: that is not encouraging
[02:22] <ekekekekeke> external is much better.
[02:22] <LaRevolucion> yeah i know
[02:22] <Jbirk> sudo fdisk
[02:22] <jordan> stribb, Ok, I don't know much about modems so I'll leave it to you :)
[02:22] <georgy> LaRevolucion : try lspci in a console to find out your modem
[02:22] <LaRevolucion> thanks
[02:22] <stribb> LaRevolucion: do you have a ttyS2 in your dmesg output?
[02:23] <stribb> jordan: in essence, you connect to the serial port that is plugged into your modem
[02:23] <stribb> and then send it the Hayes commands that way

[02:28] <georgy> Vulcanium : go to grub menu.lst and change the line with default with the number of the windows title
[02:28] <simtower> sidny4 there are hundreds of startup files
[02:28] <sidny4> true, true
[02:29] <ali_> selam millet
[02:29] <ali_> ul naber yabet
[02:29] <sidny4> ok, for running scripts at startup, like sshd and no-ip
[02:29] <k0rd> Anyone have an idea of how to get Ubuntu to install?
[02:29] <k0rd> Or is there another distro that is easier to install?
[02:29] <sucarrats> hola
[02:29] <MrRio_> hola! 
[02:29] <k0rd> I was told this is the most noob friendly
[02:29] <vulcanium> georgy: where do I find that file at?
[02:29] <ali_> betul
[02:29] <ali_> siist
[02:29] <ali_> naber
[02:29] <ali_> ?
[02:29] <georgy> Vulcanium : /boot/grub
[02:29] <WhatThe> kOrd, have you tried the live CD?
[02:29] <fildo> k0rd: cd ?
[02:30] <boris55> does ubuntu support AC97 winmodems?
[02:30] <kitche> k0rd: are you using the livecd or the alternate?
[02:30] <vulcanium> thanks alot georgy
[02:30] <boris55> I know I can use that modem in Mepis 6.0.
[02:30] <georgy> Vulcanium: if title windows are the third, then number 2
[02:30] <dabaR> sidny4: /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh is a file to which you can append commands to run at startup. the openssh-server package installs an sshd and runs it at startup for you. is there noip  package?
[02:30] <georgy> ! modems
[02:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about modems - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <georgy> ! modem
[02:31] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[02:31] <sidny4> yeah, I just found it in the universe repo, you need to turn it on but it seems to work fine
[02:31] <stribb> That modem is a winmodem and I don't believe Lucent have released the spec for it
[02:31] <Dreamglider> in terminal how do i copy a dir with all files and sub dirs from Windows(ntfs) to my usb disk(fat32)
[02:31] <dabaR> sidny4: yes, no-ip
[02:32] <sidny4> yup
[02:32] <LaRevolucion> stribb: so i can't do anythin'?
[02:32] <stribb> LaRevolucion: you can buy an external (serial) modem
[02:32] <stribb> They're pretty cheap
[02:32] <boris55> LaRevolucion there is a driver for that.
[02:32] <haploid_>  is there any known kernel filter that prevents data from making it from a usb device to its mapped file in /dev ?
[02:32] <boris55> I use it with my mepis disto on my laptop. seriously.
[02:32] <dabaR> Dreamglider: well, that depends on where the two disks are mounted. the command is "cp -R /source/path /target/path"
[02:33] <haploid_> in ubuntu( but not in fedora ) ?
[02:33] <LaRevolucion> boris55: these drivers are available for ubuntu also ?
[02:34] <wheelswitch> omg ogle is awsome
[02:34] <haploid_> as previously mentioned, we are willing to pay $200 for a solution to our /dev/hiddev0 issue
[02:34] <wheelswitch> you can watch dvd iso files without mounting them

[02:38] <hot_wheelz> Hi does anyone here have have a MythTv box using Ubuntu 6.06.1 a Asus P5B,Asus 7300GT, Hauppauge Nova - T 500 Dual Digital PCI housed in a silverstone lc16m by any chance?

[02:38] <moxxxa> ic,
[02:39] <moxxxa> how do u use your linux, im just a biggineer
[02:39] <boris55> looks interesting, though you need another computer to run it.
[02:39] <dabaR> drumline_: there is an official ubuntu book: http://www.phptr.com/bookstore/product.asp?isbn=0132435942&rl=1 You could learn about most things online, with something as simple as wikipedia + wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:39] <darkghost> ubotu: i have install almost all the codecs their and i only miss the real media ?
[02:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i have install almost all the codecs their and i only miss the real media ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:40] <esac> SuperMiguel: ask the administrator ?
[02:41] <Phuzion> SuperMiguel:  sudo does wonders of overriding permissions if that's what you're talking about
[02:41] <dabaR> SuperMiguel: can you sudo on this computer?
[02:41] <WhatThe> esac, what were you doing at the time? what apps were running?
[02:41] <esac> darkghost: have you tried VLC or easyubuntu ?
[02:41] <boris55> you boot off the floppy and then that's the entire firewall program. The idea is that there is not enough room to break the firewall and load any malicious programs.
[02:41] <esac> WhatThe: parallels, xchat, tsclient and firefox .. both times i was away from the computer
[02:41] <moxxxa> the coyote itself
[02:42] <boris55> esac - check you memory configuration. I had a board that would not work with 400MHZ Dram. I turned it back to 333MHz and not had a problem since
[02:42] <esac> boris55: its a sony vaio laptop with sony installed memory
[02:43] <WhatThe> esac, i'm not familiar with parallels, what is that? and do you have power saving settings on your laptop?
[02:43] <darkghost> esac: no
[02:43] <jmkogut> Are there any registered issues with video playing corrupt in Dapper Drake?

[02:44] <dabaR> Dreamglider: spaces are escaped using the \ character.
[02:44] <jmkogut> I boot into slax and it plays perfectly, but Drake plays it far oversaturated
[02:44] <carlos> I`m trying to install Python. So, i`ve downloaded the .tgz and unpacked it. Now i don`t know what to do... can u help me?
[02:44] <darkghost> esac: but kaffeine crash when i try to add any .rm file
[02:44] <jmkogut> carlos: pm
[02:44] <boris55> easc, turn off acpi and see if that helps
[02:44] <esac> WhatThe: parallels desktop, like vmware. display is set to turn off after 28 minutes, but everything else is set to never turn off
[02:44] <dabaR> Dreamglider: tab completion is really cool for this. try typing in part of the name, and press tab.
[02:44] <tag> I'm running breezy, has anyone seen this before?
[02:44] <tag> apache2: ./src/btree.c:588: initPage: Assertion `pPage->pParent==pParent' failed.
[02:45] <marc__> How stable, close to release is edgy eft?
[02:45] <esac> marc__: arent ubuntu releases every march and october typically ?
[02:45] <newpZ> 50% of the time when i pull the power cord out of my laptop gnome announces "NO POWER SHUTTING DOWN!" then it shuts off.... is this is known issue?
[02:45] <dabaR> marc__: it is in beta testing atm - > http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/581
[02:46] <dabaR> marc__: what is a possible answer to how stable something is?
[02:46] <stribb> My Thinkpad suspends to disk happily .. but doesn't resume from disk
[02:46] <stribb> any ideas how to fix it?
[02:46] <esac> newpZ: i dont know but sometimes it says "Your computer is running on battery power. It has 8 minutes (98%) left until the battery needs to be recharged." :)
[02:46] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Does anyone know why program icons that run in the "taskbar" would suddenly stop?
[02:46] <dabaR> esac: april and october
[02:46] <Jbirk> can I connect my ubuntu computer to a widnows PC via crossover?
[02:46] <Neon_Gen_Eva> stop being in the taskbar i mean
[02:46] <Jbirk> and get the internet through it?
[02:46] <esac> stribb: have no tried nolapic on the kernel command line ?
[02:46] <anon32> upgrading my kernel broke my winmodem :-(((((
[02:47] <stribb> noapic?
[02:47] <dabaR> Neon_Gen_Eva: they got deleted? have you tried readding them?
[02:47] <Jbirk> or do I have to setup Internet connection sharing and all kinds of bullshit?
[02:47] <anon32> Jbirk, you can just use Internet Connection Sharing on your Windows PC
[02:47] <newpZ> esac, yeah its buggy.,,, only bad that it will power off my laptop
[02:47] <marc__> I should elaborate, I just bought a new laptop and want to install ubuntu on it, I would rather not have to install again in a month, is it stable enough to install now?
[02:47] <anon32> seems easier than trying to use VPN
[02:47] <Neon_Gen_Eva> No, they're still on there, but when I run them, they don't appear in the taskbar
[02:47] <newpZ> now i know to save all my stuff before i unplug the powercord hehe
[02:47] <rowdy_> hello
[02:47] <esac> newpZ: set your laptop not to turn off when the power gets low ?
[02:47] <anon32> VNC*
[02:47] <Neon_Gen_Eva> like when you use gaim, or GFTP
[02:47] <dabaR> marc__: not for production machines, it is in testing still.
[02:47] <Neon_Gen_Eva> the smaller icon on the panel
[02:48] <stribb> marc__: if you're asking questions like this, you want the stable distribution
[02:48] <rowdy_> I have a problem with hostap_pci, can anybody help me please
[02:48] <Neon_Gen_Eva> it doesn't show up
[02:48] <newpZ> esac, good point

[02:48] <newpZ> done!
[02:48] <rowdy_> I have a problem with hostap_pci, can anybody help me please
[02:48] <Dreamglider> dabaR the tab does not work
[02:49] <dabaR> Neon_Gen_Eva: you need a specific panel (taskbar in windows) applet, called the notification area or something to that aextent. add it to your panel by right clicking on it.
[02:49] <jordan_> Dreamglider, Ehat IRC client are you using?
[02:49] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Right, i'll try that.

[02:53] <stribb> Phuzion: ask them to put your host in DNS
[02:53] <Phuzion> esac:  Identical to the machine that I'm on and there are no DNS problems here

[02:53] <stribb> Phuzion: well, put it in yourself
[02:53] <Phuzion> Router does it for me
[02:53] <wickedly_cool> what kind of router?
[02:53] <Jbirk> this sucks
[02:53] <Phuzion> WRT54G
[02:53] <Jbirk> Why does Widnows think it must use 192.168.0.1
[02:53] <Dreamglider> dabaR  source /media/windows/Documents and Settings/Regin target /media/USBHD1/Gericom
[02:53] <Phuzion> It just acts as a DNS router, it doesn't actually resolve the names
[02:54] <AfterDeath> uh
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> that doesnt act as a dns it assigns it automaticly for you
[02:54] <AfterDeath> someone kban ChelSea2k please
[02:54] <Phuzion> wickedly_cool, i realize that it doesn't actually resolve the names
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> an adress comes from your isp
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> and it knows that it is dns or your dhcp ip
[02:54] <stribb> An IP comes from your ISP
[02:54] <Phuzion> wickedly_cool, I have 192.168 addresses within my network
[02:54] <carlos> how can I access a windows partition from ubuntu?
[02:54] <dabaR> Dreamglider: sudo cp -R /media/windows/Documents\ and\ Settings/Regin /media/USBHD1/Gericom should do it.
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> 192.168.1.1 or 0.1
[02:55] <Phuzion> 1.1
[02:55] <Neon_Gen_Eva> dabaR, it must still be installed, I haven't removed it.
[02:55] <ChelSea2k> AfterDeath, why
[02:55] <Phuzion> And the server's address is 192.168.1.8
[02:55] <wickedly_cool> i use 10.100.1.1
[02:55] <AfterDeath> spamming
[02:55] <esac> Phuzion: try modifying /etc/resolv.conf .. put "nameserver 208.67.222.222" on the first line minus the quotes, and "nameserver 208.67.220.220" on the second line. does dns work then ?
[02:55] <wickedly_cool> with subnet 255.0.0.0
[02:55] <dabaR> Neon_Gen_Eva: just right click the panel, and select add to panel. then add a notification area, and see the results. Please try.
[02:55] <ChelSea2k> AfterDeath, IM SO SORRY LOL
[02:55] <esac> wickedly_cool: thats way to open of a subnet :)
[02:55] <Phuzion> esac:  I want the router to do all of the dns routing, I don't want one machine calling outside for DNS when 4 other do it fine off 192.168.2.2
[02:55] <Phuzion> 1.1*
[02:56] <stribb> esac: why can't he use 192.168.1.0/24?
[02:56] <wickedly_cool> you have to have a dedicated dns server
[02:56] <kitche> Phuzion: umm your router gets the DNS from outside
[02:56] <Jbirk> Is it going to bust anything if I use 192.168.100.0/24
[02:56] <ikus060> There is a graphical interface in the ubuntu server version ? Because I want to use this computer has a VNC server. If not, there is a easy way to install it ?
[02:56] <Phuzion> People
[02:56] <Phuzion> I know my router gets the DNS from outside
[02:56] <Phuzion> I get that
[02:56] <tritium> !enter
[02:56] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[02:56] <Phuzion> What I'm saying is this
[02:56] <Jbirk> or perhaps 10.1.0.0/8
[02:56] <wickedly_cool> from isp... its just a waste to have one inside unless your planning on dns spoofing or something of that nature
[02:57] <stribb> wickedly_cool: no it's not

[02:58] <Jbirk> If I set my router up as 1291.68.1.1/24 would Widnows be 192.168.0.1 and act as internet connection sharing?

[02:59] <mabus> what's the ubuntu equivalent to my network places
[02:59] <superkirbyartist> !mple < superkirbyartist
[02:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mple < superkirbyartist - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:59] <Phuzion> stribb:  I'm not running my own internal DNS
[02:59] <mabus> or, view workgroup computers
[02:59] <superkirbyartist> !mple
[02:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mple - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:59] <stribb> but it does make it easier to refer to your own servers from inside your nat
[02:59] <Rehinold> dabaR: yes
[03:00] <stribb> Phuzion: wasn't talking to you, I was talking to "wickedly_cool"
[03:00] <wickedly_cool> my theory on hacking is its ok to know how everything works and is operated and know its weaknesses, but its a totally another thing to actually apply what you know for evil purposes... I know what you can do with access to your own dns server dude...
[03:00] <Rehinold> dabaR: but I found only how to rip a DVD and it's not the same
[03:00] <dabaR> Rehinold: I found this http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/VlcMatroska
[03:00] <Phuzion> stribb: oh, alright
[03:00] <stribb> wickedly_cool: k,k,k, I ADMIT IT, I AM A LAMER HAX0R
[03:00] <SuperMiguel> how can i copy a folder to a folder that i dont have permissions?
[03:00] <kitche> wickedly_cool: that's called cracking then hacking is something totally different
[03:00] <TheLance> hey can someone here tell me how to replace the xorg.conf file in the terminal?
[03:00] <Rehinold> dabaR: great thanks you
[03:00] <TheLance> i dont want to have to restart into windows and do it
[03:01] <kitche> Phuzion: edit /etc/resolv.conf and put in your router's ip in there
[03:01] <nadeem> a stupid question, there is no option/menu in nautilus to "invert selection" (??) select some files, click a menu and select the unselected files?
[03:01] <wickedly_cool> i didnt say i have any theories on cracking...
[03:01] <Phuzion> kitche:  I have already done that
[03:01] <Phuzion> Doesn't work
[03:01] <wickedly_cool> hacking is understanding how it works
[03:01] <nadeem> SuperMiguel, if you can't access the directory, you can't copy files to it ..
[03:01] <wickedly_cool> knowing its weaknesses so you can defend agaisnt them
[03:01] <MrJones> Hello
[03:01] <Phuzion> Alright, so something other than DNS is up it seems, now I can't even ping locally in my network
[03:01] <tpm> TheLance: sudo cp /path/to/newxorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:01] <maniacmusician> @TheLance: sudo cp path_to_new_xorg /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:01] <MrJones> I would like to know how to get to the root shell
[03:02] <Dreamglider> dabaR cp: cannot create regular file /media/USBHD1/Gericom.....
[03:02] <MrJones> I need to know so i can install a program
[03:02] <wickedly_cool> sudo bash
[03:02] <kitche> Phuzion: make sure the interface is up sudo ifup ethX
[03:02] <dabaR> Dreamglider: you used sudo?
[03:02] <Phuzion> MrJones:  sudo -s works as well
[03:02] <Xenguy> MrJones: sudo -i
[03:02] <Phuzion> kitche:  Im sure it is
[03:02] <Dreamglider> dabaR yes
[03:02] <stribb> wickedly_cool: did I not read you right I thought you accused me of being into phishing scams?
[03:02] <mabus> !network
[03:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about network - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:02] <dabaR> Dreamglider: post the exact command and output to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:03] <SuperMiguel> nadeem: how can i copy from one file to another using the terminal?
[03:03] <simtower> stribb: stop phishing me
[03:03] <wickedly_cool> no i was just assuming that anyone with their own dns server uses it for some out of the ordinary
[03:03] <kitche> wickedly_cool: Also people host their own websites with their own domain so that's what a internal DNS can be used for also
[03:03] <stribb> simtower: shan't
[03:03] <newpZ> hi im on ubuntu dapper, i just followed http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Dapper/XGL.... i restarted X and picked XGL for a session but from that point i can not get anything going
[03:03] <Llewxam> k how can i get my wireless pcmia linksys wpc54g v3 card working in dapper? ndiswrapper recognizes card and driver but i still can't connect. network manager doesn't help either. is there any other way to get this working? please?
[03:03] <simtower> stribb: it not funny
[03:03] <SuperMiguel> how can i copy from one folder to another using the terminal
[03:03] <simtower> newpZ, #ubuntu-xgl
[03:03] <nadeem> SuperMiguel, cp -r /dir1 /dir2
[03:04] <simtower> stribb, much better
[03:04] <dabaR> SuperMiguel: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[03:04] <newpZ> simtower, thanks
[03:04] <tpm> SuperMiguel: cp -r /my/first/folder /some/other/folder
[03:04] <wickedly_cool> so whats up with your dns server? what do you use it for?
[03:04] <simtower> wickedly_cool, killing babies
[03:04] <wickedly_cool> do you have just a shit load of clients
[03:05] <dabaR> easy.
[03:05] <kitche> wickedly_cool: he uses it as a caching server
[03:05] <Llewxam> anyone at all?
[03:06] <wickedly_cool> yeah thats makes sense... like a proxy/cache server
[03:06] <Phuzion> !wireless
[03:06] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:06] <stribb> um, no, it's authoritative
[03:06] <wickedly_cool> but for dns names
[03:06] <Llewxam> tried it all. phuzion. nothing helps.
[03:06] <Phuzion> Worth a shot
[03:06] <Phuzion> lol
[03:06] <Rehinold> dabaR: do you know about this? configure: error: Missing header file ffmpeg/avcodec.h.
[03:06] <stribb> host web.wompom.org resolves to one IP address from outside the NAT
[03:06] <Lam_> if anyone is willing, can someone explain how to integrate 1/(x^3) ?
[03:06] <stribb> and an internal address from inside
[03:07] <dabaR> Rehinold: ya, you did not install all the dependencies, like the libffmpeg-dev package
[03:07] <|XK|BastionMisaw> anyone in here experinced in invsionfree and like harry potter pm me
[03:07] <Rehinold> dabaR: ok
[03:07] <dabaR> Llewxam: did you use sudo iwconfig ethX scan and saw your access point?
[03:07] <funkja> any ideas why the period on my num pad just beeps instead of printing a period? It happens on multiple computers and remotely as well.
[03:07] <dabaR> Rehinold: install all the packages shown in the page as dependencies.
[03:07] <Phuzion> funkja:  messed up keymaps?
[03:07] <Dreamglider> dabaR 26123
[03:07] <jshamash66> I am trying to access my Ubuntu pc's shared folders (I'm using Samba) from another computer running WinXP. The XP computer is finding my Ubuntu pc, but when I try to browse it, it says access is denied. I don't think it's a firewall problem, since both computers can ping each other. What should I do?
[03:08] <stribb> Lam_: 1/(x^3) is x^(-3)
[03:08] <|XK|BastionMisaw> anyone in here experinced in invsionfree and like harry potter pm me
[03:08] <funkja> how do I fix keymaps?
[03:08] <Llewxam> yea and it didn't show dabar
[03:08] <georgy> !samba
[03:08] <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
[03:08] <Lam_> stribb: oh damn; .. thanks. lol :P
[03:08] <Phuzion> funkja:  Is it a standard US american keyboard?
[03:08] <funkja> yes
[03:08] <dabaR> Dreamglider: it seems it copied all the other files.
[03:09] <Phuzion> funkja:  sudo base-config
[03:09] <dabaR> Llewxam: does anything show up?
[03:09] <Phuzion> reselect american english keyboard
[03:09] <Dreamglider> dabaR no it stopped there
[03:09] <Llewxam> unrecognized wireless request: scan
[03:09] <funkja> phuzion: command not found
[03:10] <stribb> Llewxam: try scam. That's what all the phish0rz do.
[03:10] <stribb> Llewxam: are you a phish0r?
[03:10] <Phuzion> just type base-config then
[03:10] <Phuzion> maybe that will help
[03:10] <Llewxam> no stribb
[03:10] <stribb> I think you are because you're scanning for APs
[03:10] <dabaR> Llewxam: it is actually a iwlist command
[03:10] <dabaR> Llewxam: sudo iwlist ethX scan
[03:10] <dabaR> Dreamglider: try copying over to your hard disk first.
[03:10] <stribb> It's UnAmerican to scan for APs
[03:11] <esac> phish0r alert !
[03:11] <esac> call homeland security
[03:11] <dabaR> wth?
[03:11] <Llewxam> ok now it showed up dabar
[03:11] <jshamash66> How come when I try to browse my Ubuntu computer's shared folders from another computer running XP on the network, it says that access is denied?
[03:11] <dabaR> Llewxam: and do you know the command to associate yourself with your access point?
[03:11] <esac> jshamash66: wrong username/password ?
[03:11] <Phuzion> jshamash66:  It's because everything in Linux is authenticated
[03:11] <Phuzion> You need to provide a username and password to get to things
[03:12] <Llewxam> not from terminal no. i only used to do it though the gui in breezy
[03:12] <dabaR> Llewxam: sudo iwconfig ethX ssid <ssid> if I remember correctly.
[03:12] <dabaR> Llewxam: is there security on your access point?
[03:12] <jshamash66> esac: it doesn't even prompt for a username and password
[03:12] <Llewxam> yea there is. wep. i know the key by memory
[03:12] <Phuzion> Awesome
[03:12] <Phuzion> I fixed the DNS problem
[03:12] <Phuzion> I guess the wire that I had hooked up to the server went bad or something
[03:13] <Phuzion> Might be because there was a stack of 4 full size towers sitting on it
[03:13] <Phuzion> lol
[03:13] <dabaR> Llewxam: after the association to your access point command, run sudo iwconfig by itself, to see whether it is associated properly, afaicr
[03:14] <O2> Hello, everyone
[03:14] <Llewxam> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' got that error after running iwconfig ethX ssid <ssid>
[03:14] <kitche> Llewxam: <ssid> should be your essid for your router
[03:15] <dabaR> Llewxam: also, it is not ssid there, it should be essid
[03:15] <Jbirk> I am back
[03:15] <Llewxam> k
[03:15] <Jbirk> I got it working
[03:15] <dabaR> Llewxam: "man iwconfig" helps in this case
[03:15] <dabaR> Jbirk: good work.
[03:15] <Jbirk> What I did was connect a crossover cable from my linux box to my widnows 2003 server box
[03:15] <bsmntbombdood> whoa this is a big channel
[03:16] <dabaR> bsmntbombdood: size does not matter
[03:16] <boris55> can I set up my m$ keyboard to program a key to launch the calculator?
[03:16] <dabaR> bsmntbombdood: that's what my wife tells me anyhow.
[03:16] <Jbirk> Then I set my linux box to DHCP and finally took 2003 server and selected the NIC with the crossover and the NIC with the Internet connection and told it to bridge them
[03:16] <bsmntbombdood> dabaR: She's lying
[03:16] <Jbirk> then I went to the linux box and was able to ping my router
[03:16] <Llewxam> now that worked. and running iwconfig alone showed it's connected to the AP. somehow... it's listing the wep key as well
[03:16] <Jbirk> my netgear wireless router, which was a good sign
[03:16] <dabaR> Llewxam: hm...
[03:16] <Jbirk> because to ping it, It had to go through my widnows 2003 server box to its wireless card and to the wireless router
[03:17] <dabaR> usually you have to run sudo iwconfig key <key>
[03:17] <stribb> The reason women can't park a car.. because they've been told this |->  <-| is 6 in
[03:17] <Jbirk> It wouldn't ping by DNS name though
[03:17] <Jbirk> ping google.com woudln't work
[03:17] <Jbirk> so I did
[03:17] <Llewxam> did it just in case...
[03:17] <dabaR> Llewxam: after you enter the key, you are one step, sudo dhclient3 ethX, from having an IP address.
[03:17] <Jbirk> ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0 and it talked to my wireless access point, which gave it an IP address and full DNS info
[03:18] <Jbirk> It can now ping by name too and the Internet works
[03:18] <Jbirk> I am pulling 36 pacakge updates now
[03:18] <TheLance> Ubuntu+1
[03:18] <TheLance> #ubuntu+1
[03:18] <Llewxam> bound to <ip address> renewal in <time in seconds>
[03:18] <stribb> I wonder how much hurt there would be if www.google.com stopped responding to pings
[03:18] <dabaR> Llewxam: unplug ethernet cord, ping google.
[03:19] <Llewxam> one sec
[03:20] <stribb> (that's the sort of thing phish0rz do a11 the time)
[03:20] <OmniD> How do I find what is taking priority of my sound again? Also related: Is there a way to script command line commands into a file I can just execute
[03:21] <wickedpuppy> OmniD, of course .. to your second question
[03:21] <stribb> lsof /dev/snd/* /dev/audio /dev/pcm
[03:21] <OmniD> I thought there was a grep command
[03:21] <dabaR> /dev/dsp is what I remember being told once
[03:21] <stribb> OmniD: you may be able to squash it to a single invocation of fuser
[03:22] <stribb> dabaR: yeah, that not /dev/pcm, sorry
[03:22] <Llewxam> unknown host google.com
[03:22] <Llewxam> with the www.
[03:22] <stribb> Llewxam: I win!
[03:22] <OmniD> umm
[03:22] <OmniD> I got like 6 or 7 entries
[03:22] <dabaR> OmniD: just put #! /bin/bash on the first line of the file, and then make it executable, chmod +x <file>
[03:22] <crimsun> lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*   suffices.
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> hey guys.
[03:23] <wickedpuppy> OmniD, i would suggest searching for "bash scripting" on google for more info
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> doing a gentoo install, and figured that I'd inhabit this room for a while when I'm waiting.
[03:23] <stribb> dragonfyre13: are you really 13?
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> stribb, ummmm, no.
[03:23] <dabaR> Llewxam: and you have a valid IP address from your router? ifconfig will tell you. also, try pinging by IP 164.109.28.3 is comcast.com's IP address./
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> stribb, 19 actually.
[03:24] <stribb> dragonfyre13: why not, um, <picks a random channel>, #gentoo?
[03:24] <dragonfyre13> dabaR, comcast has a ton of addresses.
[03:24] <O2> could some one tell me:  where is the g++ in my computer
[03:24] <dabaR> crimsun: how come my epiphany hogs up the sound server sometimes on my ppc version of dapper? Did you hear anything about that?
[03:24] <dragonfyre13> stribb, because this is my normal room.
[03:24] <wickedpuppy> O2, just type g++ in the terminal .. what do you get ?
[03:24] <O2> I've installed g++ yesterday,
[03:24] <dabaR> dragonfyre13: which is a useful piece of information because?
[03:24] <dragonfyre13> stribb, I hate the gentoo community, to elite, and I have 6 computers running ubuntu.
[03:25] <wickedpuppy> but you install gentoo .. interesting
[03:25] <dragonfyre13> stribb, exactly. ^_^
[03:25] <Llewxam> dabaR: from my router yes i have a valid ip. pinging with eth1 (this being wireless) i get no ping reply. be it IP or http address
[03:25] <O2> wickedpuppy: where is it installed?
[03:25] <rowdy__> hello
[03:25] <rowdy__> nixternal: are you there?
[03:25] <dragonfyre13> dabaR, choose something that doesn't go down constantly. Like google.
[03:25] <rowdy__> sorry got dc
[03:25] <wickedpuppy> O2, why you need to know where is it installed ?
[03:25] <dabaR> dragonfyre13: heh:)
[03:25] <OmniD> I can't read this
[03:25] <O2> wickedpuppy: why not?
[03:25] <OmniD> What does this mean how do I know what is taking up my sound
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, type whereis g++
[03:26] <dragonfyre13> dabaR, at least that's what I do. I used to use comcasts also, because it took less hops to get there, but it went down about once per month.
[03:26] <rowdy__> hello
[03:26] <dragonfyre13> dabaR, ^_^
[03:26] <O2> wickedpuppy: oh, thank you !
[03:26] <dabaR> Llewxam: not sure what is wrong. I can't believe we came this close. Maybe someone can figure it out. What we have so far is a valid IP address from your router.
[03:26] <dragonfyre13> stribb, so, how are things? I think I met you once before too? Or do you not use this name constantly?
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, i still fail to see the point of knowing the location of the binary .. since you can run it anyhere
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> *anywhere
[03:27] <Llewxam> i dunno what's wrong either.... i used the same methods of configuration i did on 5.10 and nothing >.<'
[03:27] <stribb> dragonfyre13: mm, not bad. I just flew to Tokyo to remodel the central downtown because I grew scales and turned green.
[03:27] <OmniD> stribb: What does this output mean?
[03:27] <dabaR> Llewxam: that router gives you a working connection on other computers?
[03:27] <dabaR> Llewxam: I mean, right now
[03:28] <O2> wickedpuppy: I want to know! just so simple :)
[03:28] <Llewxam> yep. it's how i'm online here. and downloading torrents on my desktop. plus the 3rd computer in my house is browsing the internet and my psp is also browsing the internet.
[03:28] <wickedpuppy> stribb, tokyo is one place i won't be visiting now ...
[03:28] <dabaR> Llewxam: can you ping the router?
[03:28] <wickedpuppy> O2, lol ... you can find out about the files by doing whereis or which
[03:28] <stribb> OmniD: http://pastebin.ca/ -- paste the output there
[03:29] <Llewxam> i'll try that one sec
[03:29] <ReinH> what's the bash command to list processes?
[03:29] <wickedpuppy> ps ?
[03:29] <dabaR> ps aux
[03:29] <ReinH> what does the aux do?
[03:29] <fatbrain> !grub
[03:29] <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
[03:29] <dabaR> ReinH: man ps
[03:29] <dragonfyre13> wickedpuppy, just saw your comment. I'm installing gentoo on my test box. I'm a developer for West Corporation, and need something that I can write code on, and then port it to multiple platforms to test. I have a debian, ubuntu, gentoo, FreeBSD, ArchLinux, PCLinuxOS, and Fedora setup for partitions. I also have windows on here, since I'm not going to give it the dignity of it's own computer.
[03:29] <wickedpuppy> ReinH, man ps
[03:29] <stribb> ps aux prints lots about every process
[03:29] <ReinH> thanks and thanks
[03:29] <dragonfyre13> stribb, ^_^
[03:29] <ReinH> and thanks
[03:29] <Rookie_> ReinH - try the command and find out ;)
[03:30] <stribb> ps auxwww prints weally weally wide lots
[03:30] <wickedpuppy> Dragonfire1, thanks for replying :P
[03:30] <ReinH> well I'm going to grep it
[03:30] <ReinH> so thanks :)
[03:30] <mister_roboto> dragonfyre13: sounds like you need vmware :)
[03:30] <dragonfyre13> wickedpuppy, ^_^
[03:30] <wickedpuppy> agreed ... vmware is the one you need
[03:30] <esac> qemu
[03:30] <esac> parallels
[03:30] <stribb> wickedpuppy: aww, you could join me on the rampage
[03:30] <O2> wickedpuppy: thanks! but I want to say, if we don't know all this details, we wont master the system!
[03:31] <OmniD> stribb/whoever else: http://pastebin.ca/195753
[03:31] <mabus> What's with Christian Edition, why do people download it?
[03:31] <wickedpuppy> O2, if you want to master the system , i suggest google and man pages ... honestly irc is for short fixes ..
[03:31] <mabus> WHy do you need a distro suited to your religion... how does that even make sense?
[03:31] <dragonfyre13> mister_roboto, nope. I need the actual hardware interface, and I've tried VMWare. It emulates somethings well, but not enough. I also tried Qemu, but that doesn't even try to emulate the hardware, it just has "special" interfaces that use QEMU drivers or generic drivers.
[03:31] <Llewxam> hmm...
[03:31] <stribb> Hoho, Christian Edition of ubuntu.
[03:32] <foo> I want to make an ssh user so they can ssh into my box and then ssh into someone else's box. I want to set up ssh keys so they don't need to know the password for the second box. I'm trying to set up a chroot environment with http://www.ffnn.nl/pages/articles/linux/setting-up-a-chroot-jail-for-cvs.php#contentstart .. .but it's not working... ssh is saying I have an invalid rsa key. Any other ways to do this? Hm
[03:32] <Llewxam> trying to ping the router i get host unreachable... and yet somehow... i'm still on here o.0
[03:32] <dragonfyre13> esac, qemu doesn't emulate hardware at all, and parallels I use for personal, but it also doesn't emulate hardware.
[03:32] <Kyral> Seperation of Church and.....Distro?
[03:32] <Llewxam> and i'm on the wireless 0.o this is ... weird.
 What's with Christian Edition, why do people download it? >> Because it appeals to the american demographic
[03:32] <OmniD> I'm presonally against it, but it is not to be discussed here
[03:32] <dabaR> Llewxam: your router blocks ping requests?
[03:32] <dabaR> Llewxam: if it works, don't fix it.
[03:32] <stribb> annoyed, scared, whatever :)
[03:32] <mabus> Is there an Ubuntu: Muslim Edition in the works?
[03:33] <Kyral> OmniD: I am offended at that (Granted I am Catholic, but I love the concept of "Seperation of Church And State" )
[03:33] <Llewxam> well it's working right now.... surely if i reboot... will it still work?
[03:33] <dragonfyre13> OmniD, actually, the american, spanish, and southern american demographic.
[03:33] <OmniD> I'm personally not religious at all
[03:33] <Kyral> IMO your own afterlife is your business :P
[03:33] <stribb> OmniD: so, re your pastebin...
[03:33] <OmniD> huh?
[03:33] <stribb> you have 2 differend esd processes running.. that's gotta hurt
[03:33] <Kyral> and no one elses
[03:33] <OmniD> I posted it
[03:34] <OmniD> How do I stop them?
[03:34] <dragonfyre13> Kyral, thank you. Finally someone who actually doesn't convert everyone when they talk about religion.
[03:34] <dabaR> Llewxam: nope, you need to associate, enter key, and get an IP every time. This can be  added to /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh to run every time the computer starts if I understand the whole thing right.
[03:34] <stribb> kill <pid>
[03:34] <O2> does the g++ include gcc ?
[03:34] <stribb> If that doesn't work, OmniD, kill -9 <pid>
[03:34] <Jbirk> how do i enable all the restricted repositories
[03:34] <eracc> Wow! Good article on Bind 9! http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/355 :-)
[03:34] <Kyral> dragonfyre13: I only convert people when I talk about the Free Software Foundation :P
[03:34] <dabaR> Llewxam: or you can make a script file, and run it every time you want to connect.
[03:34] <dragonfyre13> stribb, OmniD "killall <name of process>"
[03:34] <stribb> (you can tell if it's worked by ps <pid>)
[03:34] <chuckyp> !tell Jbirk about restricted
[03:34] <stribb> dragonfyre13: no
[03:34] <dragonfyre13> Kyral, well duh! ^_^
[03:35] <wickedpuppy> O2, no ... g++ and gcc are different programs ... but if you installed build-essential then you should have gcc ...
[03:35] <dragonfyre13> stribb, ?
[03:35] <OmniD> What's the pid
[03:35] <stribb> killall *will* hurt you one of these days if you sit in front of a solaris box
[03:35] <chuckyp> wickedpuppy, build-essentials <---- isn't it?
[03:35] <stribb> OmniD: well, you see that pretty column marked "PID"?
[03:35] <stribb> It's in there.
[03:35] <wickedpuppy> chuckyp, thanks for fixing my type
[03:35] <Llewxam> well i'm bad at writing scripts.
[03:35] <wickedpuppy> typo
[03:35] <dabaR> Llewxam: what does your nickname mean and in what language?
[03:35] <dragonfyre13> stribb, if you are in front of a solaris, but for what he's doing here it's easier.
[03:35] <stribb> dragonfyre13: pkill is better
[03:36] <Llewxam> it's english dabaR. read it backwards.
[03:36] <Llewxam> it's my name :p
[03:36] <chuckyp> dabaR, it means maxwell
[03:36] <dragonfyre13> stribb, true. I just thought of killall first. I'm the quick and dirty sort.
[03:36] <OmniD> stribb: Umm
[03:36] <stribb> Even better, kill <pid> will kill one process not both
[03:36] <OmniD> Then don't I want to kill 4985?
[03:36] <OmniD> or the other one
[03:36] <dragonfyre13> Llewxam, cool. Figured it was elvish or something.
[03:36] <stribb> omnid: Try one and see
[03:37] <dragonfyre13> stribb, thought his intent was to kill both.
[03:37] <OmniD> what's the -9 do?
[03:37] <Llewxam> yea sounds elvish don't it? only know how to say one thing in elvish though....
[03:37] <dabaR> Llewxam: cool. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26124/ shows an example of a script file.
[03:37] <stribb> If you have to kill both, run a new copy of esd
[03:37] <stribb> with $ esd &
[03:37] <dragonfyre13> Llewxam, what do you know how to say in elvish?
[03:37] <Llewxam> Aure Entuluva
[03:37] <stribb> eloi eloi, elbereth
[03:37] <dragonfyre13> OmniD, it tells it to kill no matter what, I think....
[03:37] <dabaR> elvish is not a real language. They speak with their minds.
[03:37] <chuckyp> super ghey
[03:38] <stribb> OmniD: -9 is a signal number
[03:38] <Llewxam> it means: day shall come again
[03:38] <chuckyp> One ring to rule all you tards
[03:38] <eracc> Heh, good way to kill your box: killall init ;-) [BTW, don't actually type that unless you want your box to stop and need a hard reset] 
[03:38] <rowdy__> hi everyone.
[03:38] <dabaR> chuckyp: thanks.
[03:38] <stribb> eracc: sudo kill -9 -1
[03:38] <Llewxam> hmmm
[03:38] <dragonfyre13> ARRGGGGHHHHHHHH! I HATE GENTOO!!!!!!!!
[03:38] <eracc> stribb, or that. Yeah.
[03:38] <Llewxam> k page is not loading
[03:38] <Dreamglider> use ubuntu :)
[03:38] <dragonfyre13> The install died on me again. Dang it.
[03:38] <dabaR> Llewxam: /j #flood
[03:39] <stribb> Have I told anyone about the new command for reading mail really fast? rm -rf /
[03:39] <dragonfyre13> Dreamglider, yeah, I already do. Need this for a dev box.
[03:39] <Dreamglider> dev box!
[03:39] <chuckyp> stribb, lol  probably shouldn't post that in here.
[03:39] <dragonfyre13> stribb, be careful, there are N00bs in here.
[03:39] <stribb> but for optimum speed (yeah, speed) you have to do it through sudo
[03:39] <tritium> stribb: don't do that here...
[03:39] <eracc> Calling all NOOBERS! Ignore stribb ...
[03:39] <dragonfyre13> stribb, oh nice. I can just see a noob doing that.
[03:39] <OmniD> stribb: Sound still does not work in firefox even after restarting program
[03:40] <dragonfyre13> Dreamglider, yeah, as a dev box. I write them in ubuntu, port them to gentoo, debian, etc.
[03:40] <stribb> OmniD: hm, what's your lsof command give you now?
[03:40] <OmniD> I don't see why only one program can have sound at a time
[03:40] <OmniD> let's check
[03:40] <dragonfyre13> I've got to go. eracc, keep stribb from blowing up the planet.
[03:41] <minimec> OmniD: Do you have a problem with flash?
[03:41] <OmniD> Same thing minus 4985's process
[03:41] <dragonfyre13> OmniD, it's because your using OSS instead of alsa.
[03:41] <stribb> OmniD: only one process can write to the device
[03:41] <OmniD> minimec nope
[03:41] <OmniD> it works all the time
[03:41] <OmniD> even googlevideo and youtube work
[03:41] <stribb> That's what esd is for; to mix the sounds
[03:41] <eracc> OmniD, there is a way to allow several apps to play sounds while only allowing one access to record. I forget how ATM.
[03:41] <yellow> Thanks eracc ^^!
[03:41] <OmniD> dragonfyre13: I AM USING ALSA
[03:41] <yellow> Thanks OmniD :*
[03:41] <minimec> OmniD: But a sound problem?
[03:41] <yellow> Thanks minimec :*
[03:42] <OmniD> stribb: Then why is ESD not working?
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD :*
[03:42] <OmniD> wha
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD!
[03:42] <OmniD> ... you're welcome!
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD!
[03:42] <OmniD> What did I do
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD ^^!
[03:42] <Jbirk> how do i search with apt-get?
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks Jbirk!
[03:42] <OmniD> :/
[03:43] <yellow> Thanks OmniD!
[03:43] <dabaR> tritium: yellow
[03:43] <yellow> Thanks dabaR :*
[03:43] <Jbirk> did you get your bios upgraded?
[03:43] <yellow> Thanks Jbirk!
[03:43] <Jbirk> what did I do?
[03:43] <minimec> we are spammed !
[03:43] <stribb> it's spam, dolt
[03:43] <OmniD> It took me a while to figure that out
[03:43] <x-jd-x> hello
[03:43] <stribb> really?
[03:43] <OmniD> Okay so my ESD is not working
[03:43] <Jbirk> I want to know how to search apt-get
[03:44] <stribb> or your app is not trying to use it
[03:44] <stribb> Jbirk: apt-cache search <keywords>
[03:44] <OmniD> Well I actually think it does not work
[03:44] <bimberi> Jbirk: apt-cache search something
[03:44] <OmniD> None of my programs seem to ever "mix" together
[03:44] <stribb> Jbirk: or (better) use aptitude
[03:44] <OmniD> So I think it's the ESD
[03:44] <mister_roboto> Jbirk: apt-cache search --names-only
[03:44] <Jbirk> ESD?
[03:44] <minimec> OmniD: Is ESD installed by default... ?
[03:45] <OmniD> err I think so yes
[03:45] <cmatheson> i have an lcd screen that i don't know the horizsync/vertrefresh for... the vendor's page (acer) doesn't list those either, is there any other way to find those out, or just a pretty safe setting i could put that at?
[03:45] <OmniD> because it is running!
[03:45] <stribb> Last vestiges from a window manager system from the late '90s called Enlightenment.
[03:45] <hobbesmaster> Jbirk: evil sound daemon... er enlightenment sound daemon
[03:45] <fisherman> My ubuntu often crash and fixfox often restart,how should i do?
[03:45] <yellow>  sorry guys 
[03:45] <yellow>  pressed the wrong ubtton 
[03:45] <Jbirk> why can't I find webmin
[03:45] <Jbirk> I want to installw ebmin
[03:46] <stribb> Jbirk: don't do that
[03:46] <chuckyp> !webmin
[03:46] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[03:46] <chuckyp> Jbirk, well theres your answer its no longer supported
[03:46] <tonyyarusso> Oh come on ubotu.  You could at least link to the meeting minutes explaining why or something so we aren't left wondering.
[03:46] <Flannel> Jbirk: webmin is no longer in the repositories, because the package maintainer didn't want to do it anymore.  You're still welcome to install it on your own though.
[03:46] <amicrawle> does any body know how to open a .DMG file ?
[03:46] <Jbirk> i have it working fine on my laptop
[03:46] <Jbirk> why can't i install it
[03:46] <tonyyarusso> (Anyone who has a URL, could you add it?)
[03:46] <stribb> because webmin is pants.
[03:46] <eracc> Jbirk, if you really want Webmin (like I do) you can get it at www.webmin.com.
[03:47] <stribb> It has always been useless
[03:47] <x-jd-x> hello
[03:47] <Flannel> tonyyarusso: the maintainer didn't want to anymore, no technical reason.
[03:47] <osielcs> Hi friends...I need some help to create a ADSL conection on Ubunto
[03:47] <stribb> and will *never* help you
[03:47] <LoRez> Warning: `manni18' seems to be spamming, please discontinue or kicks/kills/klines will be issued.
[03:47] <tonyyarusso> Flannel: Ah, does that mean it's an "up for adoption" package now?
[03:47] <x-jd-x> what
[03:47] <chuckyp> Jbirk, no one is stopping you from installing it.
[03:47] <chuckyp> Jbirk, its just not supported in debian or ubuntu anymore.
[03:48] <amicrawle> does any body know how to open a .DMG file ?
[03:48] <Jbirk> okay
[03:48] <chuckyp> !tell osielcs about dsl
[03:48] <Flannel> tonyyarusso: sure, if you'd like to do it, go right ahead ;)
[03:48] <Jbirk> If I just check all of the boxes, does it turn on all of the repositories?
[03:48] <eracc> Jbirk, http://www.webmin.com/download.html
[03:48] <chuckyp> osielcs, read the private message from ubotu
[03:48] <chuckyp> Jbirk, I don't believe its in the repos let me check
[03:48] <amicrawle> does any body know how to open a .DMG file ?
[03:48] <amicrawle> does any body know how to open a .DMG file ?
[03:48] <amicrawle> does any body know how to open a .DMG file ?

[03:48] <dabaR> osielcs: what kind of help?
[03:49] <chuckyp> amicrawle, please don't spam
[03:49] <stribb> Jbirk: why do you want webmin?
[03:49] <amicrawle> LoRez i am not
[03:49] <dabaR> amicrawle: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?s=3d39146c8b754f4c16715c677baeccfc&t=268503
[03:49] <LoRez> amicrawle: yes, you are.
[03:49] <O2> how to write Hello world program with g++ ?
[03:49] <LoRez> you said it 4 times rapidly.
[03:49] <chuckyp> stribb, why does it matter why he wants it.  Jbirk you would most likely have to download the source and install it.
[03:49] <osielcs> dabal, I can't find where to create an ADSL conection
[03:50] <OmniD> stribb: I tried opening the sound control panel or whatever and it keeps crashing
[03:50] <stribb> chuckyp: because if all he wants is easy host administration, it is the wrong solution
[03:50] <OmniD> it does not even open fully
[03:50] <eracc> chuckyp, Jbirk can get Webmin at the URL I pasted earlier.
[03:50] <dabaR> osielcs: sudo pppoeconf is the command for setting up dsl connections.
[03:50] <Kyral> O2: #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { cout << "Hello World"; return 0; }
[03:50] <stribb> I know nothing of this control panel, OmniD; sorry.
[03:50] <chuckyp> amicrawle, did you search google.
[03:50] <hedpe_> where can i find a list of supported NVidia/ATI cards in linux and X?
[03:50] <morphos19> I'm using GAIM on 6.06.  Anyone have any better IRC client recommendations?
[03:50] <Rookie_> !nvidia
[03:50] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:50] <chuckyp> amicrawle, becuase I just searched for "dmg to iso ubuntu" and found a response
[03:51] <O2> Kyral: then how to compile the program ?
[03:51] <OmniD> Do you do anything outside of the terminal
[03:51] <chuckyp> morphos19, well if you want gui based go with xchat
[03:51] <totall_6_7> morphos19: I like Kvirc
[03:51] <stribb> o2: make <progname>
[03:51] <Kyral> O2: g++ <name of file>
[03:51] <eracc> hedpe_, you can get the list of supported nVidia chipsets from nvidia.com
[03:51] <dabaR> !compile
[03:51] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:51] <Kyral> stribb: that only works if you have a Makefile....
[03:51] <mister_roboto> stribb: what if he doesn't want to write a makefile first?  ;)
[03:51] <stribb> my answer is better because it gives the program the right name
[03:51] <morphos19> Thanks Chuck and Totall
[03:51] <stribb> who said he needed a makefile
[03:51] <hedpe_> eracc: do you know for ATI?
[03:51] <Kyral> stribb: Make does :P
[03:52] <stribb> Kyral: tried it?
[03:52] <eracc> hedpe_, I do not use ATI. So, no.
[03:52] <Kyral> stribb: yes LD
[03:52] <mister_roboto> stribb:  wtf would the target be that you are making?
[03:52] <Kyral> You need a makefile for Make to work :P
[03:52] <O2> Kyral: thanks!
[03:52] <chuckyp> hedpe_, search for linuxcompatible in google.  there is a website that lists hardware
[03:52] <eracc> hedpe_, http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
[03:52] <osielcs> Thanks guy...fantastic.
[03:53] <chuckyp> hedpe_, www.linuxcompatible.org/
[03:53] <osielcs> Hi DabaR, is your nick a hebraic word?
[03:53] <chuckyp> thats the website I was looking for
[03:53] <stribb> um, I just wrote hello.cc
[03:53] <dabaR> osielcs: no, it means beaver in croatian/serbian/whatever else
[03:53] <stribb> and then ran make hello
[03:53] <stribb> and it worked
[03:53] <mister_roboto> stribb: well i'll be damned!  this version of make will in fact do that
[03:53] <stribb> You have no faith
[03:54] <dabaR> how uninteresting
[03:54] <stribb> *sigh* which is what I was telling you all
[03:54] <osielcs> DabaR. Do you know the meaning of it?
[03:54] <dabaR> osielcs: no, tell me please.
[03:54] <mister_roboto> stribb: i guarantee you that won't work on any other make you use besides gnu ;)
[03:54] <stribb> mister_roboto: worked on solaris
[03:54] <stribb> Why shouldn't it work?
[03:55] <stribb> Have you not hear of implicit rules?
[03:55] <mister_roboto> stribb: yes, but you don't specify a target
[03:55] <stribb> Learn *why* things work, not just *that* they work
[03:55] <stribb> yes you do.
[03:55] <stribb> make hello
[03:55] <stribb> specifies target hello
[03:55] <stribb> so make looks around and says to itself..
[03:55] <stribb> what can I make to make hello?
[03:55] <mister_roboto> indeed
[03:55] <dabaR> stribb: we are not interested, really.
[03:55] <stribb> Oh lookie here, there's a make.cc
[03:55] <mister_roboto> .ccp.o
[03:56] <mister_roboto> .cpp.o rather
[03:56] <mister_roboto> or .cc.o
[03:56] <b14ck73425> hey everybody
[03:57] <osielcs> DabaR is a hebraic word that means "word"
[03:57] <mister_roboto> stribb: whenever i compiled a single file (never for a real program)  i always just called the compiler directly
[03:57] <dabaR> osielcs: wow, seriously? I have a hebrew friend, and he never told me.
[03:57] <adrakoa> hi
[03:57] <stribb> mister_roboto: and now you know better; good :)
[03:58] <stribb> You also know that a single-line Makefile of CPPFLAGS='-blah -blah -funroll-loops' is all you need to make your code rice
[03:58] <amicrawle> will not mnt
[03:58] <Tokenbad> anyone here played quake 4 on ubuntu...i installed it...started it....it flashed and goes back to normal screen with error
[03:59] <osielcs> Dabar: Ask for him. (sorry by my terrible english. I am brazilian)
[03:59] <dabaR> osielcs: ok, thank you.
[04:00] <amicrawle> sudo mount -t hfs -o loop tiger-xiso.dmg /mnt

[04:00] <adrakoa> hi i have a problem with fstab in edgy, with root=/dev/hdax, i remove the line UID=xxxx, and in the boot crash with xd out of memory and kernel panic...
[04:00] <stribb> adrakoa: put noauto into the options (where default is, perhaps)
[04:01] <Cassandra> Hello all.
[04:01] <Cassandra> I;m curious if anyone might be able to help me with Nicotine
[04:01] <adrakoa> stribb, ok, but how to write that UID what i remove??
[04:01] <stribb> adrakoa: it just won't mount it at boot-time
[04:02] <Cassandra> Ha, that's cute.
[04:02] <dabaR> adrakoa: use a live cd, perhaps.
[04:03] <Cassandra> emote lights up a cig... How refreshing :p
[04:03] <Cassandra> That didn't work.
[04:03] <totall_6_7> Cassandra: the best way is to ask your question :)
[04:03] <Cassandra> Ahhh!  Thanks
[04:03] <Cassandra> How did you do that?
[04:03] <adrakoa> dabaR, my problem is understand the fstab of ubuntu edgy
[04:04] <totall_6_7> do what?
[04:04] <dabaR> we accumulate good karma, and then shoot it out of a cannon at a lucky person with a girl nick.
[04:04] <Cassandra> make red just to me talking.
[04:04] <Cassandra> Or was it?
[04:04] <Cassandra> BTW I'm a newbie :p
[04:04] <dabaR> adrakoa: you removed something from it, and now want it back, but can not boot into the system to edit the file, correct?
[04:04] <adrakoa> nop
[04:04] <adrakoa> i understand chroot
[04:05] <totall_6_7> Cassandra: its your irc client/program highlighting any line with your nick in it
[04:05] <wickedpuppy>  xchat probably
[04:05] <Tokenbad> anyone here played quake 4 on ubuntu...i installed it...started it....it flashed and goes back to normal screen with error
[04:05] <JFreakCapo> hello
[04:06] <adrakoa> i write my fstab and now i have a kernel panic... i had a line with UID={32312-3232-3232} or something similar && it was necesary, but why?
[04:06] <Cassandra> Oh wow, thanks
[04:07] <womble> Hey, anyone able to help with ubuntu server amd64?
[04:07] <dabaR> to give you one?
[04:07] <Cassandra> So, my question is this:  I am trying to use nicotine but it won't let me sign in.  Does anyone know how I go about getting a user name?
[04:08] <wickedpuppy> Cassandra, nicotine is ubuntu program ?
[04:08] <womble> Oh, no to get the network running... It's like the NIC isn't plugged into the network
[04:08] <Cassandra> I don't even know if that is the trouble because the "connect" command isn't selectable.
[04:08] <womble> Oh wait, there's a ubuntu-server channe, I'll move to there, sorry!
[04:08] <Cassandra> It is the linux version of soulseek.
[04:08] <Cassandra> Is that what you mean?  It's unsupported.
[04:08] <wheelswitch> how do i find out the processor speed im using in linux?
[04:09] <wheelswitch> *ubuntu
[04:09] <wickedpuppy> i see soulseek .. well never used it before ...
[04:09] <wickedpuppy> wheelswitch, cat /proc/cpuinfo
[04:09] <Cassandra> Thank you anyways.
[04:10] <O2> who could tell me, how to save and exit in VI ?
[04:10] <dabaR> :wq
[04:10] <dabaR> ZZ
[04:10] <eracc> :x
[04:10] <tritium> O2: :wq
[04:10] <Cassandra> Is there something like this somewhere else I could ask for advice?
[04:10] <O2> so many answer, which is right?
[04:10] <adrakoa> :wq!
[04:10] <eracc> O2, all the above
[04:11] <adyeths> I need some advice. I just bought a compaq presario sr2010nx. For some reason its detecting the hard drive as a scsi drive. I don't believe its scsi though. Is it wise to attempt to install this even though it thinks the hard drive is SCSI?
[04:11] <raymond_> hm....why not try seeing if there is a irc room just for nicotine??
[04:11] <StAfZe6> you tell me
[04:11] <xittum> Cassandra: lots
[04:11] <Cassandra> Ok, how do I do that?
[04:11] <JFreakCapo> hello, is possible to setup the configuration of video card diferent in the laptop screen and the tv output ??
[04:11] <Cassandra> This is my first time on here, sorry if it's tedious.
[04:11] <O2> oh, thanks all !
[04:11] <adrakoa> anybody can help with edgy strange fstab
[04:11] <dabaR> Cassandra: have you tried just using something you make up for the user name and password?
[04:12] <dabaR> Cassandra: relax
[04:12] <tritium> adrakoa: #ubuntu+1 for edgy questions
[04:12] <adrakoa> ok
[04:12] <eracc> Cassandra, there is no channel for nicotine from what I see here.
[04:12] <adrakoa> thx
[04:12] <totall_6_7> Cassandra: try this link, its the FAQ for the program:
[04:12] <totall_6_7> Cassandra: http://nicotine.thegraveyard.org/cgi-bin/faqw.py?query=connect&querytype=simple&casefold=yes&req=search
[04:12] <xittum> Cassandra: /join #linux - /join #kde or whatever channel you like..
[04:13] <Cassandra> I have tried using something I normally would if that's what you mean dabaR.
[04:13] <adyeths> can someone advise me on whether its safe to try to install ubuntu on a computer where the hard drives are detected as scsi when they aren't scsi? (at least I don't believe they're scsi)
[04:13] <dabaR> Cassandra: ya, it seems that you can just use whatever as the user name.
[04:13] <dabaR> Cassandra: as long as it is not already used.
[04:14] <Cassandra> Hmm... that may have just fixed it, thank a lot to everyone.
[04:14] <dabaR> Cassandra: heh:)
[04:14] <dabaR> Cassandra: I used google to come up with your user name.
[04:14] <Dreamglider> im trying to mount an ext3 partion on ubuntu live
[04:15] <Dreamglider> but i get /media/ext3/ is not a block device
[04:15] <Cassandra> dabaR:  What do you mean google?
[04:15] <dabaR> Dreamglider: what command are you using?
[04:15] <Dreamglider> sudo mount /media/ext3 /dev/hda2
[04:15] <dabaR> Cassandra: I entered "nicotine sign in soulseek" into google, and used the first link
[04:16] <Dreamglider> or /ext3/
[04:16] <adrakoa> Dreamglider, man mount. fdisk -l. mount /dev/hda2 /media/ext3
[04:16] <Cassandra> dabaR:  Ok, I'll have a look at that.  I still can't 'connect'
[04:16] <Dreamglider> !
[04:16] <hydro> can anyone recommend an application that I can run under Gnome Desktop on Dapper Drake which will let me send SMT (text messages) from my laptop running Dapper Drake to my mobile phone (once I have paired the laptop with the mobile phone over Bluetooth)?
[04:16] <adrakoa> mount /dev/hda2 /media/ext3
[04:17] <Consty>  In older versions of Ubuntu you were able to see preferences for specific screen savers, but now I no longer see them.  How can I pull them up?
[04:17] <rowdy__> hello everybody
[04:18] <rowdy__> can somebody help me with this problem i have
[04:18] <variant> Consty: apt-get install xscreensaver
[04:18] <variant> Consty: your using gnome-screensaver which is confusingly simple :)
[04:18] <Consty> variant: ah thank you!
[04:18] <dabaR> Cassandra: what is the server you are trying to connect to?
[04:18] <adyeths> *sigh*
[04:19] <Cassandra> server.slsknet.org:2240
[04:19] <wickedpuppy> rowdy__, so ... you are going to tell us the problem ... arent you ?
[04:20] <variant> wickedpuppy: lol
[04:20] <minimec> Cassandra: Could it be a problem with a firewall or a router?
[04:20] <wickedpuppy> :P
[04:20] <dabaR> Cassandra: try something like cassie12345 and some password to sign in. it may be that your user name is taken.
[04:21] <jshamash66> does anyone know why windows XP computers on my network cannot access my Ubuntu pc's shared folders
[04:21] <Cassandra> I don't think it a problem with the router, I've use it before for soulseek.
[04:21] <jshamash66> it just says its "not accessible"
[04:21] <minimec> Cassandra: ok.
[04:21] <dabaR> jshamash66: have you added users to samba for the windows box users?
[04:21] <Cassandra> minimec: I don't think it's a firewall as the 'Connect' command is just light grey instead of selectable.
[04:22] <adyeths> is there anyone here willing to answer my question?
[04:22] <Cassandra> dabaR: I just tried your advice what doesn't seem to be the problem.
[04:22] <wickedpuppy> adyeths, are you going to ask ?
[04:22] <jshamash66> dabaR: is that the 'smbpasswd' command?
[04:22] <minimec> Cassandra: ok again ;) So I can't help you. I don't use nicotine.
[04:22] <dabaR> jshamash66: dunno, read the samba wiki page
[04:22] <wickedpuppy> nicotine is bas for health ...
[04:22] <Cassandra> minimec:Thanks anyways, I appreciate it.
[04:23] <wickedpuppy> bad ... pardon my typo .. LOL
[04:23] <minimec> Cassandra: np
[04:23] <fr33mind> !seen holycow
[04:23] <ubotu> I last saw holycow (n=a@mail.wjsgroup.com) 13h 39m 14s ago, quiting: "Ex-Chat"
[04:23] <dabaR> adyeths: what is on the hard drives? Are they empty?
[04:23] <O2> I use g++ helloworld.c          and it produce this file:   a.out
[04:23] <fr33mind> hehe :)
[04:23] <adyeths> they have windows installed currently. (ugh).
[04:23] <O2> and found that a.out can't run
[04:23] <wickedpuppy> O2, for c , it should be gcc ... but nvm run it ... ./a.out
[04:24] <jshamash66> dabaR: well, I set up Samba users, but do you know if the username and password that I use have to be the username and password of the user on my Ubuntu PC?
[04:24] <dabaR> adyeths: are you trying to preserve the windows insatllation, or just overwrite it.
[04:24] <wickedpuppy> can't run ? O2 use gcc to compile c programs .. g++ for c++
[04:24] <O2> what's nvm?
[04:24] <adyeths> I need to get that junk off there and get ubuntu on it. but I'm nervous about trying to install it because its detecting the drives as scsi and iI'm pretty sure that the drives aren't scsi.
[04:24] <wickedpuppy> nvm = never mind
[04:24] <O2> oh,,,
[04:24] <O2> but I use iostream...
[04:24] <wickedpuppy> O2, in c ?
[04:24] <O2> iostream is c++ library
[04:24] <dabaR> jshamash66: the user name and password for the windows user trying to access the share has to be entered into the samba.
[04:25] <chuckyp> adyeths, what type of computer?
[04:25] <wickedpuppy> then why your program name is helloworld.c ?
[04:25] <jshamash66> dabR: hm, I did that too. still doesnt work
[04:25] <dabaR> jshamash66: same workgroup set up in the ubuntu box?
[04:25] <O2> #include <iostream> using namespace std;  int main(){ cout<<"helloworld"<<endl;}
[04:25] <O2> yes, that's the filename
[04:25] <jshamash66> dabaR: yeah
[04:25] <chuckyp> adyeths, what do you mena that it is detecting the drive as scsi also?
[04:25] <adyeths> compaq presario sr2010nx
[04:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, that should be cpp ... pls name your files properly  :P
[04:26] <adyeths> it says the drives are scsi.
[04:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, let me run here .. give me a min
[04:26] <O2> ok, i try it.
[04:26] <chuckyp> adyeths, what says the drives are scsi?
[04:26] <chuckyp> adyeths, you have to be a little more descriptive than "it"
[04:26] <dabaR> adyeths: if there is no important data on the drives, just go ahead with the installation is what I would do. That is _not_ an expert opinion.
[04:27] <adyeths> Ubuntu Linux 6.06.1 says that they're scsi.
[04:27] <adyeths> so does earlier version of ubuntu.
[04:27] <adyeths> it only detects them as scsi drives.
[04:27] <O2> wickedpuppy: I've tried, the same result!
[04:27] <chuckyp> adyeths, were does it say this?  or are you talking about it naming them as /dev/sda etc...
[04:28] <dabaR> chuckyp: the installation says so at some point
[04:28] <wickedpuppy> O2, I can run here ... btw try g++ helloworld.cpp -o helloworld .. it would give the final file name to be helloworld and not a.out
[04:28] <O2> sudo g++ helloworld.cpp,   an a.out file is produced.
[04:28] <dabaR> a.out is good
[04:28] <wickedpuppy> O2, no need sudo
[04:28] <chuckyp> dabaR, i've never seen the installation report what type of drive you have.
[04:28] <adyeths> yes. it names them as /dev/sda .... my other computer (which just died) had the drive as /dev/hda
[04:28] <O2> why no need sudo?
[04:29] <chuckyp> adyeths, they coulod possibly be sata drives
[04:29] <wickedpuppy> O2, why yes ? this is not admin issue ... users can compile programs
[04:29] <chuckyp> adyeths, sata drive following the same naming conventions
[04:29] <adyeths> ok... so it should be ok to install then and it won't fry the computer or anything? heh.
[04:30] <chuckyp> adyeths, what you could try doing to be sure is to boot to live cd and verify that all your hardware is working.  You could even mount the drive and make sure you can read from it etc... and not be having a driver issue with your controller.
[04:30] <adyeths> I just bought the thing today. I'd hate to have to take it back and say "oops, its fried. sorry. I need a new one."
[04:30] <O2> wickedpuppy: I've tried. it produced helloworld file.  I type helloworld, it says command not found!
[04:30] <wickedpuppy> O2, oh , main returns an int so I suggest for programming sake pls return 0; ...
[04:30] <man-of-christ> alright peeps i got a very serious problem with installation
[04:30] <dabaR> chuckyp: read the screens again.
[04:30] <adyeths> I'm on the live cd right now.
[04:30] <wickedpuppy> O2, its ./helloworld
[04:30] <man-of-christ> i donwloaded the installation livecd
[04:30] <O2> I did, it return 0
[04:30] <dabaR> adyeths: there is no way that can happen.
[04:30] <adyeths> it seems to be working for me so far. though I'm not sure how to get it to tell me if the hard drives are working.
[04:30] <man-of-christ> and when i try to install a get an error about partions and it wont install
[04:30] <chuckyp> adyeths, yeah i don't see using in apropriate drivers frying a computer.
[04:31] <wickedpuppy> O2, its not in the code you pasted ... you never return 0 ... anyway its ./helloworld <--- there is . and /
[04:31] <chuckyp> adyeths, which would be the worst case scenario it just wouldn't work.
[04:31] <man-of-christ> is there some sort if installation cds or something else i can downloaded to install
[04:31] <wickedpuppy> man-of-christ, ubuntu.com
[04:31] <man-of-christ> some sort of 3cds installation or something?
[04:31] <man-of-christ> i've  serach and i found nothing
[04:31] <jshamash66> Can anyone help me figure out why windows XP computers on my network cannot access my Ubuntu pc's shared folders?
[04:31] <dabaR> man-of-christ: called alternate CD. try that one. I never got the desktop cd to install.
[04:31] <O2> it's in the current directory, no use to add ./ ?
[04:32] <chuckyp> man-of-christ, there is a alternate iso which will allow you to do an old fasioned text install.
[04:32] <wickedpuppy> man-of-christ, you have not search enough .. on right side there is a link called "download"
[04:32] <man-of-christ> right
[04:32] <wickedpuppy> O2, pls add ./ ...
[04:32] <man-of-christ> but it say networkless"   i want internet  is an old pen.3 with 128 ram and i was running ferdora core5 and found it unstable so i wanted linux on that old pc
[04:33] <jshamash66> It tells me it's 'not accessible', and it's not a firewall problem because both computers can ping each other
[04:33] <man-of-christ> ubuntu is very satvle and problemless i feel.
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> ?
[04:33] <chuckyp> man-of-christ, definately download the alternate install cd.  and use that.
[04:33] <adyeths> ok... I'm going to take a chance and see what happens... hopefully all will be well. if not I guess I can always take it back to the store and say "oops it doesn't work"  heh.
[04:33] <wickedpuppy> networkless ?
[04:33] <chuckyp> adyeths, its not going to fry hardware
[04:33] <O2> the same!!
[04:33] <O2> I add ./
[04:34] <wickedpuppy> O2, pls tell us the exact command you typed and the result .. if too long pls use pastebin
[04:34] <O2> I use dir and saw the helloworld file!
[04:34] <chuckyp> O2, the file needs to be executable then you need to be in the directory that the file is in and they you type ./nameoffile  to run it.
[04:34] <wickedpuppy> 2 line is fine
[04:34] <crimsun> dabaR: afaik epiphany-browser still uses whatever libgnome uses, so esd? What's the lsof output while epiphany-browser is running an active a/v page?
[04:34] <man-of-christ> chuckyp, but is the installion for that alternative cd hard or idiot proof.
[04:34] <chuckyp> man-of-christ, it walks you through everything.
[04:34] <haploid_> I have the following usb device issue:  under fedora core, I am able to read from /dev/hiddev0 ( a shipping scale ), whereas under ubuntu 6.06.1, reading from /dev/hiddev0 (the device IS recognized just fine in /var/log/messages ) using cat does NOT return data like it does under fedora
[04:34] <man-of-christ> 10-4
[04:35] <man-of-christ> i also had a problem with streamming video? i thought ubuntu  came intergrated with all that?
[04:35] <chuckyp> haploid_, are you using sudo?
[04:35] <O2> I am in gnome, and I could see clearly that g++ has produced the helloworld file in the current directory, and I type helloworld, but it says command not found
[04:35] <adyeths> looks like everything is working.
[04:35] <chuckyp> man-of-christ, negative on the streaming video on restricted codecs
[04:35] <wickedpuppy> O2, its ./helloworld ...
[04:35] <wickedpuppy> pls do not make me cry ...
[04:35] <chuckyp> !tell man-of-christ about restricted
[04:36] <crimsun> O2: '.' (the current directory) is not in the default $PATH for security "best practices"
[04:36] <O2> g++ helloworld.cpp -o ./helloworld     ,right?
[04:36] <man-of-christ> realplayer is useless,helix player the same  vlc suck i got nothing to play online streaming not even mplayer....is there something that works  also i read some repos had mplayer etc.. to watch  streamming a found nothing
[04:36] <wickedpuppy> i should change my nick to crying puppy ...
[04:36] <crimsun> O2: no, when you execute it, i.e., ./helloworld
[04:36] <chuckyp> wickedpuppy, I can't believe you are still trying.
[04:36] <O2> but I double click helloworld, and nothing happen
[04:36] <wickedpuppy> O2, you already have the program ... pls type ./helloworld to run it
[04:37] <O2> oh, .... :P
[04:37] <chuckyp> O2, g++ helloworld.cpp -o isuck  then hit return then you would type ./isuck to execute the program
[04:37] <haploid_> chuckyp, yes
[04:37] <O2> godness!    the console's current directory' problem
[04:37] <man-of-christ> also ubuntu comes with sudo.... is that like yum or more difficult?
[04:37] <haploid_> chuckyp, this isn't a read permissions issue
[04:37] <ks1> pwd
[04:38] <chuckyp> wickedpuppy, you know he's probably doing this just to compile scripts.  rofl
[04:38] <crimsun> man-of-christ: sudo is similar to su, so it's not related to yum
[04:38] <wickedpuppy> lol
[04:38] <ErrantEgo> now theres someone local...
[04:38] <man-of-christ> i tryied su - password and it didnt work
[04:38] <ErrantEgo> who the hell was tict
[04:38] <adyeths> I just have to say.... this is is easier to install than it was to get xp up and running. (and xp was already installed!)
[04:38] <O2> lol......
[04:38] <O2> how fool i am
[04:38] <crimsun> man-of-christ: right, you have to use sudo by default, e.g., sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
[04:38] <wickedpuppy> O2, pls .. if you ask for help .. pls follow us .. if we screw up then pls blame us .. but pls do as we say for once .. just once pls ...
[04:39] <tict> who wants to help me add a physical volume to an LVM group!
[04:39] <JFreakCapo> hello, how change screen resolution without reboot

[04:39] <man-of-christ> well anywho i'll give  alternative cd a try hoepfullly it will install i will DL and try to install tomorrow.. ty all for your help.
[04:39] <O2> wickedpuppy:   sorry for my misunderstood.
[04:39] <O2> wickedpuppy: Thanks! :P
[04:39] <man-of-christ> is good to see a distro taht actually supports...  :-)
[04:40] <wickedpuppy> O2, its ok ... np ... its a newbie programmer mistake on linux .. :P
[04:40] <wickedpuppy> but if you were on ##C you will be flamed to no end ...
[04:40] <tict> crimson: well yes, but I tried helping me and I am stuck
[04:40] <wickedpuppy> or ##C++
[04:40] <man-of-christ> ty
[04:40] <tict> er, crimsun.  not crimson
[04:40] <adyeths> thanks guys for your help. it seems my paranoia was for nothing (obviously. heh)
[04:40] <dabaR> JFreakCapo: restart the X server, alt-ctrl-bkspc
[04:41] <chuckyp> adyeths, you already installed?
[04:41] <JFreakCapo> dabaR, how restart the xserver ??
[04:41] <adyeths> its installing right now.
[04:41] <Jesse1984> hey guys, just wanting some help.. I can't get my internet connection working in ubuntu 6.06, when i booted from th elive cd internet was working fine, but i had trouble installing with live to i installed with alternate instead (wich worked perfect) but now the internet is not working. I have ADSL direct connection, cords are plugged in all should be good ???
[04:41] <adyeths> 42% it says. copying files right now.
[04:41] <ks1> if you added modes you can kill the X server, but if they are already installed you can ctrl-alt- + or - to cycle through them
[04:41] <O2> wickedpuppy: what is ##C ?
[04:42] <chuckyp> adyeths, ahh cool.  Make sure it boots after install
[04:42] <chuckyp> O2, the c support channel
[04:42] <wickedpuppy> O2, join and be amazed by geekness
[04:42] <chuckyp> O2, /join ##C
[04:42] <Cassandra> thanks and bye!
[04:42] <adyeths> it should. the live cd booted just fine.
[04:42] <O2> why is it not #C, but ##C ?
[04:42] <Ma1> Hey I really need a way to burn video DVD very fast! I made a movie and I present it tomorow!!
[04:42] <dabaR> Jesse1984: have you ran the "sudo pppoeconf" command?
[04:43] <chuckyp> O2, dunno probably so it comes up earlier on a channel list or #c was taken dunno really
[04:43] <Ma1> I tried QDVDAuthor
[04:43] <O2> I am new in Linux, but not C or C++
[04:43] <JFreakCapo> hello agian

[04:43] <chuckyp> Ma1, did you try Places>CD/DVD creator?
[04:44] <Ma1> chuckyp, no i will
[04:44] <dabaR> O2: the name comes out of the fact that freenode, the server this and the other rooms are hosted on reserves #name for the official name channel, and ##name is an unoficial, what they call an about channel
[04:44] <JFreakCapo> how change screen resolution without re-boot ??
[04:44] <Ma1> chuckyp, the name of the sorftware is CD/DVD creator?
[04:44] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, in console or gnome?
[04:44] <O2> dabaR: oh,,,,clearly now
[04:44] <JFreakCapo> gnome
[04:45] <dabaR> JFreakCapo: restart the X server using ctrl-alt-backspace
[04:45] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, system > preferences > screen resolution
[04:45] <dabaR> JFreakCapo: try his way first
[04:45] <ks1> or you can ctrl-alt-"+/-"
[04:45] <jshamash66> Can anyone help me figure out why windows XP computers on my network cannot access my Ubuntu pc's shared folders?
[04:45] <jshamash66>  It tells me it's 'not accessible', and it's not a firewall problem because both computers can ping each other
[04:45] <Jesse1984> dabaR: ohhh i found on a website that it was sudo pppoecinfig! they had it wrong.. ill try it now.. thanks
[04:45] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, if you need to restart x you can ctrl+alt+backspace or ctrl+alt+f1 to get to a text terminal and then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[04:46] <ks1> as long as the modes are listed in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:46] <chuckyp> jshamash66, are you using samba?
[04:46] <jshamash66> chuckyp: yeah
[04:46] <sidny4> samba is fun
[04:47] <jshamash66> chuckyp: XP is finding my Ubuntu computer, it just won't browse it
[04:47] <chuckyp> jshamash66, hrm... well maybe a user problem.
[04:47] <JFreakCapo> chucky i don't want to restart the X, just change resolution for a while
[04:47] <chuckyp> jshamash66, haven't used samba in a long time so I'm not really qualified to help you.
[04:47] <jshamash66> chuckyp: ok, thanks anyway
[04:47] <ks1> JFreakCapo: ctrl-alt-"plus/minus" on the num pad.
[04:47] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, do you see the option under preferences to change it?

[04:51] <chuckyp> jshamash66, yeah thats what I was saying earlier probably a permission problem but samba gets screwy some times with which computer is the nameserver.
[04:51] <THX-1138> setting a login just so samba works will drive my wife nuts

[04:58] <goofey> wickedpuppy: ok - thanks - then is it possible to add lamp to ubuntu server install?  (I assume samba and cups are part of standard server install...)
[04:58] <Pelo> thanks you chuckyp  and do you know if it is possible to add more ?
[04:58] <chuckyp> goofey, yes its possible
[04:58] <cpk2> !lamp
[04:58] <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.
[04:59] <wickedpuppy> goofey, are you using alternative cd ? i don't know the contents there ...
[04:59] <chuckyp> Pelo, dunno
[04:59] <chuckyp> Pelo, whats you native language?
[04:59] <Pelo> french
[04:59] <chuckyp> !fr
[04:59] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:59] <goofey> chuckyp: excellent - thanks
[04:59] <wickedpuppy> goofey, of course you can always install via apt-get
[04:59] <Pelo> tks
[04:59] <chuckyp> Pelo, they may be able to help you more
[04:59] <Jbirk> is xgl easy to install?
[04:59] <goofey> wickedpuppy: i'm using the standart 6.10 beta server cd
[04:59] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, the normal nvidia driver for ubuntu I guess
[04:59] <chuckyp> !tell Jbirk about xgl
[05:00] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, well if you never installed a driver that is your issue
[05:00] <Tokenbad> THX-1138, did you get an error
[05:00] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, I get the nvidia screen when I boot
[05:00] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, you can try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx or you could download the one from nvidia.com
[05:00] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, hrm...
[05:00] <Squee> Is it possible when using Ubuntu as your dhcp server to block a mac adress from getting an IP?
[05:00] <THX-1138> Tokenbad it was over two months ago. - i have forgotten
[05:00] <Tokenbad> its the driver they tell you to install at the wiki
[05:00] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, I would make sure glx is working.  i.e. run glxgears and glxinfo
[05:01] <acetech747> anyone know the best method of configuring alsa to go to two outputs?
[05:01] <esac> glxgears -info is helpful too
[05:01] <THX-1138> Tokenbad - World of /warcraft works. - not well enough for raiding.
[05:01] <goofey> wickedpuppy: true - i just want to make sure to get the nice integrated setup that comes from the lamp server install
[05:01] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, glxgears gives this: 6985 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1389.692 FPS
[05:01] <Tokenbad> then it keeps updating
[05:02] <Tokenbad> 282351 frames in 5.0 seconds = 56470.156 FPS
[05:02] <Tokenbad> see
[05:02] <THX-1138> Tokenbad - what is the command line argument for glxgears to spit out a framerate
[05:02] <wickedpuppy> goofey, lamp is not just one server ... so its hard to say what does intergration means here ... work together yes
[05:02] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, did the little gears come up?
[05:02] <goofey> wickedpuppy: i agree 100% - this page (http://www.ubuntu.com/server) says: The LAMP option saves the trouble of installing and integrating each of the four separate LAMP components,
[05:02] <JFreakCapo> hello, please, what plugin install to see dvd movies with totem or kafeine ??
[05:03] <chuckyp> THX-1138, it should spit out the fps every 5 seconds or so but if not there is a switch for it.
[05:03] <chuckyp> !tell JFreakCapo about dvd
[05:03] <THX-1138> chuckyp - seems like the dev dislikes anyone using t as a "benchmark" - keeps the command changing
[05:03] <acetech747> how do i config in ubuntu to be able to use desktop speakers and optical output at the same time?
[05:04] <JFreakCapo> chuckyp, what means !tell about dvd i don't understand....
[05:04] <ice63> well i use mplayer with mozilla-plugin
[05:04] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, the only thing I would try is to install the nvidia.com drivers
[05:04] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, read the message from ubotu
[05:04] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, if I type !tell blah about something ubotu will message you about that.  ubotu is a bot that has a lot of ubuntu information
[05:04] <chuckyp> !tell JFreakCapo about ubotu
[05:05] <MaKaTiGuY> i have a question, why is it when i install ubuntu  6.10, it hangs

[05:05] <MaKaTiGuY> yes, the beta version
[05:05] <kitche> MaKaTiGuY: ask in #ubuntu+1 it's the beta channel
[05:05] <wickedpuppy> THX-1138, glxgears -printfps

[05:05] <goofey> wickedpuppy: thanks for the ubuntu server help!
[05:05] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, the message from the bot should be in a different tab or window unless you are blocking messages  you could try typing /msg ubotu dvd and it will tell you about dvd's
[05:05] <wickedpuppy> goofey, np
[05:06] <THX-1138> cool - thanks :)
[05:06] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, which irc program are you using?

[05:06] <JFreakCapo> chuckyp, i see, i found it thks. i don't understand

[05:07] <chuckyp> JFreakCapo, ubotu is a computer with a whole bunch of comonly asked questions stored makes it easier for us.
[05:07] <jachyra> can someone plz tell me how to permanently set my PATH env variable?
[05:07] <wickedpuppy> JFreakCapo, identified ?
[05:07] <shido> i dont know why ....i install any theme...and the colors are always the "human" colors.... its always kinda orange brownie....no matter what theme i select, for example...if the window borders are supposed to be blue, they remain "human" anyway

[05:08] <jachyra> wickedpuppy: thankyouuu!!!!
[05:08] <wickedpuppy> jachyra, np
[05:08] <chuckyp> zam, what do you mean you want to recover files that were in /home?
[05:09] <chuckyp> zam, and you formated the partition?
[05:09] <shido> yea ChocoCid ...i've installed tons of themes before....and used em....and now i dont know why...suddenly... when i change the theme...no matter what theme is..the colors remain human, the shapes and everything change...bu the colors remain "human"
[05:09] <ChocoCid> hrm.
[05:09] <ChocoCid> click theme details and poke around in there
[05:10] <shido> yea....i've poked alot everywhere...this is really strange
[05:11] <zam> chuckyp: i used to use asoft wear in windows to recover the rwong format their must be at least one work with linux
[05:11] <chuckyp> zam, well doing some google searching I see a program called nucleus
[05:11] <THX-1138> DigitalDark-2-Blue-1.2 - Black as night easy on the eyes.
[05:11] <chuckyp> zam, Dunno how well it will do though I've never had to do that.
[05:12] <THX-1138> zam - haven't tried it yet. - "testdisk"
[05:12] <THX-1138> penguin sleuth kit - may have what you need
[05:12] <ferger> knix
[05:12] <chuckyp> zam, but definately I would stop using the disk if you are running off the reinstall.  Boot from a live cd and try to recover the files.
[05:13] <chuckyp> zam, to avoid this in the future you may want to look in to creating  a seperate /home partition.
[05:13] <chuckyp> zam, then you can reinstall with out worring
[05:14] <czer323> Is there an easy command I can use to trash empty folders recursively?

[05:17] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, 6.06
[05:18] <bimberi> MaKaTiGuY: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper) is the current stable release
[05:18] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, dapper is the stable release
[05:18] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, yeah the gears came up
[05:18] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, edgy is the beta development release
[05:18] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, well the only other thing I would try is maybe the nviida drivers from nvidia.com
[05:18] <chuckyp> !tell Tokenbad about nvidia
[05:18] <MaKaTiGuY> so for the meantime i should stick to the 6.06?
[05:18] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, ye
[05:19] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, s/ye/yes
[05:19] <Tokenbad> what does all the stuff glxinfo shows mean?
[05:19] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: have you tried the beta?
[05:19] <user__> can some one transfer the file to me
[05:19] <krypto84sv> join #linux.org.sv
[05:19] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, well there is  string you can grep from there to make sure glx is working.  but if gears work I think you can assume the glx is working.
[05:19] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, yes i'm running it now
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> user__, sudo apt-get install azureus
[05:20] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, edgy support is in #ubuntu+1
[05:20] <THX-1138> glxinfo | grep direct
[05:20] <chuckyp> THX-1138, thats it ty
[05:20] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, yeah what THX-1138 said
[05:20] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: how is it?
[05:20] <Megaqwerty> is there a way I can check if my laptop has bluetooth? Like a bash command?
[05:20] <Tokenbad> but I have the drivers from the url...
[05:20] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, nice some nice improvements.
[05:20] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: like what?
[05:20] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, what did he say?
[05:21] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, but when it comes out later this month you willb e able to upgrade to it via a simple command
[05:21] <Tokenbad> oh..nevermind see it
[05:21] <wickedpuppy> Megaqwerty, check the laptop spec ? surely you got the spec when you bought it right ?
[05:21] <THX-1138> !bluetooth > Megaqwerty
[05:21] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, glxinfo | grep direct         thats the command to see if direct rendering is working.
[05:21] <user__> i dont understand
[05:21] <Tokenbad> if it says direct rendering no...how do I turn it on?
[05:21] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: so you min to say, i should install 6.06 first
[05:21] <wickedpuppy> user__, type it to get azureus
[05:21] <Tokenbad> had quake 4 working on here before
[05:21] <THX-1138> hcitool for bluetooth?
[05:21] <chuckyp> user__, transfer what file to you?
[05:22] <user__> typ it wher
[05:22] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, what has changed since you had it working?
[05:22] <user__> p2p
[05:22] <Tokenbad> reinstalled ubuntu...and reinstalled driver
[05:22] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, well if you can't afford to be unstable yes.
[05:22] <THX-1138> hcitool ;)
[05:22] <wickedpuppy> user__, in command line ... you want azureus , bittorrent client right ? that will download and install it for you
[05:22] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, they could impliment an update that would render your system unusable with edgy unless you really know what you are doing.
[05:22] <user__> i need a p2p that i can download mp3's
[05:23] <DigitalNinja> Is there a GUI tool for configuring X and monitors? I haven't seen one.

[05:24] <chuckyp> user__, i'm pretty sure there is a limewire version for linux
[05:24] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: ok thanks, im planning to get a suse linux enterprise, but i read the survey that ubuntu is the #1 linux desktop
[05:24] <wickedpuppy> MaKaTiGuY, sled is super cool ...
[05:24] <O2> why most linux programming books only talks about gcc, not including g++
[05:24] <wickedpuppy> i suggest you check that out
[05:24] <user__> there is but  i cant open it to use it after i installed it
[05:24] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, yeah definately check it out.  You could always download a live cd and boot it to play around.  The install cd is bootable as a live cd.
[05:24] <Tru7h> How to install fonts?
[05:24] <wickedpuppy> O2, you can compile c++ with gcc too
[05:25] <chuckyp> !tell Tru7h about fonts
[05:25] <O2> really ?
[05:25] <newbuntu> I love ubuntu , but a problem I keep having is that artsd seems to take over the sound system, causing me to lose sound... I even got a new soundcard but I keep losing sound for no reason, can anyone help me with some good advice?
[05:25] <tict> okay, new question: I want to reference a computer (which has it's ip assigned by dhcp) by a name instead of an ip.  where do I start?
[05:25] <THX-1138> !fonts > Tru7h
[05:25] <wickedpuppy> O2, there is a switch i think .. i never bother to know ... i use g++ for c++ and gcc for c ... fine for me
[05:25] <newbuntu> I have disabled system sounds, but that doesnt seem to help
[05:25] <chuckyp> O2, want to really read something type "man gcc" in console to read the manual pages for it.  Its pretty powerfull.
[05:25] <O2> thaen what's the different of g++ to gcc
[05:25] <ks1> C/C++
[05:26] <O2> gcc can compile c++ classes program?
[05:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, one got ++ and one got cc ...
[05:26] <kitche> O2: gcc just calls on g++ pretty much when you compile C++ programs
[05:26] <O2> I know, C++ has classes that C doesn't!
[05:26] <ks1> man gcc
[05:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, that you got to man gcc or use google .. we are no compiler expert here
[05:26] <O2> oh... I know now.
[05:27] <O2> :P  ok
[05:27] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, reinatalled ubuntu and reinstalled the driver
[05:27] <O2> I am a programmer though, hehe
[05:27] <wickedpuppy> O2, windows programmer ?
[05:28] <O2> yes! right
[05:28] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, hrm... what was the error you were getting?
[05:28] <wickedpuppy> O2, cause honestly , anyone who done helloworld in bash or perl won't make that ./helloworld mistake ...
[05:28] <O2> I start learning linux just a few weeks.
[05:28] <esac> is there a way to run a program at a -20 niceness as a normal user ? if i do 'sudo nice -n -20 command' will that not run the command as su ?
[05:28] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: have you tried the suse linux entrprse?
[05:29] <chuckyp> esac, yes it will run it as root
[05:29] <O2>  :)   but that mistake isn't so important, i think
[05:29] <esac> is there a way to not run it as root ? or is my only option to renice it ?
[05:29] <user__> hey chucky can u assist me wit installin that aruz thingy
[05:29] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, I've tried suse once  but ubuntu has pretty much taken over my linux partition.
[05:29] <O2> I will learn script programming on linux later.
[05:30] <chuckyp> user__, sudo apt-get install azureus
[05:30] <user__> where doi type that
[05:30] <chuckyp> user__, or you can click on system > administration > synaptic package manager              and search for azureus
[05:30] <O2> wickedpuppy, why is scripting so important on linux ?
[05:30] <user__> ok
[05:30] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: does ubuntu support 3d desktop?
[05:31] <O2> dont cry for agintina...
[05:31] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, yes you mean xgl/compiz?
[05:31] <MaKaTiGuY> yes
[05:31] <wickedpuppy> O2, cause you will be coming back for more questions ... shell is very tightly intergrated with everything on linux ...
[05:31] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, well there is #ubuntu-xgl for support but yes it works in it.
[05:31] <MaKaTiGuY> cool
[05:32] <wickedpuppy> O2, you need to know how to change path , fidn files , grep lines from source codes... may i ask how you going to do that without knowing bash inside out ?
[05:32] <O2> as far as I know,  what I write with shell script is what I input in the terminal, only so, right?
[05:32] <wickedpuppy> of course there are IDEs ... but any linux geek worth his salt knows emacs or vi ...
[05:32] <ChocoCid> i need to learn vi instead of just using gedit all the time :(
[05:32] <user__> chucky it says it cant find it
[05:33] <wickedpuppy> O2, nope ... shell scripting has entirely its own languages and such... think of it as basic ... simple but powerful
[05:33] <ChocoCid> ...but man, looking at vi looks like a pain :(
[05:33] <O2> Oh, it smells like DOS .BAT file...
[05:33] <wickedpuppy> ChocoCid, vi is easy ...
[05:33] <chuckyp> O2, yeah
[05:33] <ChocoCid> i don't know the keys heh
[05:33] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26132/
[05:33] <Jesse1984> hi - i am in ubuntu netowrk tools, trying to configure my ethernet interface so i can get the net working.. but the configure button is grayed out.. does anyone know how i can gain access to this button?
[05:33] <chuckyp> O2, you can compare it to .bat but its much more powerfull.
[05:34] <wickedpuppy> ChocoCid, vimtutor
[05:34] <O2> :P  I got it!
[05:34] <totall_6_7> ChocoCid: gedit works fine for me, i dont know why you would want to pull your hair out using vi
[05:34] <ChocoCid> hah
[05:34] <k0rd> hmm
[05:34] <O2> then how much more powerfull is it than dos .bat file?
[05:34] <poningru> k0rd: 6.1.6?
[05:34] <k0rd> hey
[05:34] <k0rd> yeah
[05:34] <poningru> thats not...
[05:34] <VistaL> HI ALLL
[05:34] <wickedpuppy> O2, can .bad do program scheduling ?
[05:34] <VistaL> HEY k0rd
[05:34] <k0rd> or 6.0.6
[05:35] <k0rd> let me see
[05:35] <ChocoCid> hrm, so without starting the vi vs emacs wars...
[05:35] <poningru> ok that makes more sense
[05:35] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, yeah definately appears to be a problem with your video driver.  Make sure nvidia-glx is installed if that doesn't work try the driver from nvidia.com
[05:35] <ChocoCid> what's the meta-key in ubuntu by default?
[05:35] <k0rd> ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386
[05:35] <O2> I didn't know what it is....
[05:35] <tict> chococid, you could always try nano.  it works on the command line but is less complicated
[05:35] <ChocoCid> i've heard you need to know what the meta key is to be able to use emacs (and vi?)
[05:35] <VistaL> UBUNTU OWNUBUNTU ONLY FOR LEET PEOPLE WITH SECURE PROTECTIONS, THA REALZ HAX0R CR3W!!!
[05:35] <shido> does anybody know how can i reset the themes like when i first installed ubuntu?.... like removing them all?
[05:35] <VistaL> UBUNTU OWNUBUNTU ONLY FOR LEET PEOPLE WITH SECURE PROTECTIONS, THA REALZ HAX0R CR3W!!!
[05:35] <poningru> !op

[05:35] <chuckyp> ?
[05:35] <O2> wickedpuppy, in windows, there's no such "program scheduling", or I never meet
[05:35] <wickedpuppy> O2, i suggest you check out cron ... cron + bash = very very powerfuldoing things
[05:35] <ChocoCid> oh cool, nano is like DOS Edit
[05:35] <Dr_willis> ChocoCid,  emacs uses the escape key  and  alt or ctrl . I forget which.
[05:36] <gnomefreak> opps
[05:36] <Hobbsee> gnomefreak: wrong one?
[05:36] <poningru> hehe
[05:36] <gnomefreak> yep
[05:36] <chuckyp> yes rythmbox crashed
[05:36] <k0rd> so...poningru, any suggestions?
[05:36] <gnomefreak> ty Hobbsee ;)
[05:36] <ChocoCid> er, wow, alt-escape works like alt-tab o_O
[05:36] <poningru> k0rd: on the boot screen there is an option
[05:36] <wickedpuppy> O2, for exmaple can you schedule this program to run at this time of the month ? cron is a scheduler .. so in cron you can run bash scripts on certain times .. like backup of your source code folder every monday morning ...
[05:36] <Jesse1984> hi - i am in ubuntu netowrk tools, trying to configure my ethernet interface so i can get the net working.. but the configure button is grayed out.. does anyone know how i can gain access to this button???....anyone....?
[05:36] <poningru> k0rd: to check the media
[05:36] <Jbirk> Where can I get help installing compiz?
[05:36] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, nvidia-glx is installed
[05:36] <O2> I think, linux is a very kind of server, which functions I seldom use in desktop windows.
[05:36] <poningru> !compiz
[05:36] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[05:36] <shido> mmm how can i log in as root from the login screen?
[05:37] <ChocoCid> !rootsudo
[05:37] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:37] <k0rd> poningru, I checked the directory it was in, with AdvancedChecksum and returned no errors?
[05:37] <totall_6_7> i mean if you are going to come in and flood a room with real text at least make it understandable
[05:37] <poningru> Jbirk: there is also a channe lfor it
[05:37] <ChocoCid> scroll down there, shido, but you really shouldn't unless you HAVE to
[05:37] <kitche> shido: you can't it's not allowed though the GUI login
[05:37] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, then I would try the driver from nvidia.com
[05:37] <poningru> k0rd: you have to check the enitre cd
[05:37] <ChocoCid> you can enable root, kitche
[05:37] <O2> wickedpuppy, Oh, god, that sound wonderful!
[05:37] <user__> is there a site that i can go 2 to download mp3 downloaders from
[05:37] <poningru> k0rd: it could be calling something else
[05:37] <ChocoCid> it's just strongly discouraged and turned off by default!

[05:37] <shido> i remember i once enable the option to log in as root... but i dont remember where
[05:37] <k0rd> how would I do that, sorry, really new to this
[05:37] <ChocoCid> user__ : go there
[05:37] <kitche> ChocoCid: umm yes but you can't log in as root though gdm or kdm
[05:38] <ChocoCid> uh
[05:38] <kmu> when i insert a cdrom into the drive, an icon appears on the desktop and i can browse it using gnome, but when i type `mount', i don't see anything. how can i view the contents of the cdrom from the command-line?
[05:38] <wickedpuppy> O2, then you are missing everything ... its like moving from basic to c ...  both are languages but you know which is more powerful ..
[05:38] <ChocoCid> yes you can heh
[05:38] <shido> yes kitche... you can
[05:38] <poningru> k0rd: just start up the cd and then using your arrow key go to the check cd option
[05:38] <shido> but you have to enable it somewhere
[05:38] <poningru> and press enter
[05:38] <ChocoCid> scroll down the the bottom of this page, shido: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:38] <k0rd> ok, i'll brb
[05:38] <shido> ok
[05:38] <O2> then I can schedule my everything done with scripting, and go and take coffee :)
[05:38] <shido> thanks ChocoCid
[05:38] <Jbirk> where do i get to compiz / XGL cannel?
[05:38] <ChocoCid> you have toe enable the root account as well as enable graphical login
[05:39] <shido> ChocoCid im doing this to delete my username and create it agaim...maybe this way i'll solve this Themes issue
[05:39] <wickedpuppy> O2, yes ... in fact a lot of commands , programs you use are bash scripts
[05:39] <poningru> #ubuntu-xgl
[05:39] <wickedpuppy> O2, you got apache on ubuntu ?
[05:39] <kitche> ChocoCid: shido guess you can, but it's a huge security risk
[05:39] <O2> Mmmm, I must learn it then!
[05:40] <gnomefreak> ChocoCid: bad advice to enable that
[05:40] <ChocoCid> he asked
[05:40] <ChocoCid> and i said it's a bad idea, the page says it's a bad idea
[05:40] <O2> I don't know. I only install with the desktop iso.  and g++
[05:40] <kitche> ChocoCid: shido since it logs your root password
[05:40] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: can you pls help me install 6.06? im new in ubuntu
[05:40] <shido> i've done it before...just to delete my username and create i again
[05:40] <wickedpuppy> O2, apache or mysql or samba ? nothing yet ? well go into /etc/init.d ... type less filename ... all are bash scripts
[05:40] <shido> cause this Themes wont change!
[05:41] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, just download and burn the iso to a cd.
[05:41] <kmu> anyone know how to view cdrom contents from the command-line?
[05:41] <kitche> shido: umm delete .gnome that hsould fix your problem
[05:41] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, boot to it.  then you can double click the install icon on the desktop
[05:41] <O2> wickedpuppy:  how could I put your name in front of the sentence automatically ?
[05:41] <chuckyp> kmu, ls
[05:41] <shido> mmm ok kitche... i'll try
[05:41] <wickedpuppy> O2, you can't but type wicke and press tab
[05:41] <shido> lets see :D
[05:41] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: k, tnx
[05:41] <chuckyp> kmu, you would have to mount the cdrom first then change directory to where its mounted and just use ls to list the contents
[05:42] <kitche> O2: type part of the name then press tab until it says his name :)
[05:42] <Tru7h> how to install sh?
[05:42] <skroll> sometimes I install a package that is just a .deb package and not in the repos that is a newer version then whats in the repos, and afterwards dont need it, is there a way to downgrade back to the repo version without it removing all sorts of other packages?
[05:42] <ChocoCid> i'm going to start using nano instead of gedit :D
[05:42] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, if you are installing on an older system if you download the alternate iso you can do a text based install instead of a graphical one.
[05:42] <shido> kitche... deleting .gnome and .gconf will reset the defaults?
[05:42] <O2> wickedpuppy: thanks! I can type less keys now! hehe
[05:42] <ChocoCid> tab complete also works in the shell
[05:42] <O2> kitche: thanks!
[05:42] <ChocoCid> for commands, filenames, etc
[05:42] <wickedpuppy> O2, bash also supports auto complete .. type l and press tab
[05:43] <kitche> shido: yeah you can backup the folder if you wish by doing cp -r <folder> <folder>.bak
[05:43] <ChocoCid> for instance: type sudo apt-get isn*tab* xch*tab*
[05:43] <chuckyp> skroll, hrm... removing a package without removing the dependancies?
[05:43] <O2> wickedpuppy: apache is written in bash?????????????
[05:43] <wickedpuppy> O2, no .. start-up script
[05:43] <wickedpuppy> lol
[05:43] <O2> wickedpuppy: lol
[05:43] <wickedpuppy> O2, sorry i confused ya.. nvm take things slowly ..
[05:44] <skroll> chuckyp: well, how about just downgrading the package back to the one in the repo
[05:44] <kmu> chuckyp, right, but i believe the cdrom is automounted and i can see it on the destop and view its contents from the gui. but when i type mount, it's not there. i can ls to /media/cdrom and i don't see anything. i'm not sure how this is working.
[05:44] <O2> wickedpuppy: bash supports auto complete.....which type of auto complete?
[05:44] <jachyra> hi all, i installed this program that required me to run a config script - it's failing at this point: configure:2200: gcc   -lcurses conftest.c  >&5
[05:44] <jachyra> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
[05:44] <jachyra> do you know what might be wrong?
[05:44] <wickedpuppy> O2, type l and press tab
[05:44] <kmu> correction: i can cd to /media/cdrom and type ls and there is nothing
[05:44] <O2> wickedpuppy, what's nvm
[05:44] <O2> La_PaRCa
[05:44] <jachyra> ah didn;t paste properly nvm
[05:45] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, I know this prob stupid question...but nvidia has me confused as what driver to install
[05:45] <wickedpuppy> O2, nvm  = never mind .. didn't you ask me that before ?
[05:45] <chuckyp> skroll, yeah there is no way to remove it without removing the dependancies.  But if you do remove it the config files will remain
[05:45] <O2> I am using mIRC, what's relation with bash in linux?
[05:46] <O2> wickedpuppy: I am using mIRC, what's relation with bash in linux?
[05:46] <chuckyp> kmu, all you would have to do is type in ls /media/cdrom to see whats in the root of the cdrom.  or you could cd /media/cdrom and then type ls from there.
[05:46] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, what type of card again?
[05:46] <wickedpuppy> O2, pls don't ask too much questions ... lol .. and i don't think you are using mirc .. i think you are using bash .. unless you are on windows now
[05:46] <Tokenbad> 5700 fx 256 megs of ram on it
[05:46] <robert_> how do I use dpkg-buildpkg to build one specific version of software?
[05:46] <wickedpuppy> xchat
[05:46] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, 5700 fx 256 megs of ram on it
[05:46] <wickedpuppy> not bash
[05:46] <wickedpuppy> LOL
[05:47] <jron> was prison break new tonight?
[05:47] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, is that a geforce card?
[05:47] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, yes
[05:48] <wickedpuppy> Tokenbad, weren't you downloading the driver at nvidia.com ?
[05:48] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-8774.html
[05:48] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, assuming you aren't running 64bit version of dapper
[05:48] <O2> wickedpuppy:   lol, sorry for too many questions, maybe I misunderstood your words: type l and press TAB,
[05:48] <wickedpuppy> yes ... type l and press tab ...
[05:49] <O2> La_PaRCa
[05:49] <O2> wickedpuppy:  that's :La_PaRCa
[05:49] <wickedpuppy> why you keep calling La_PaRCa ?
[05:49] <wickedpuppy> type l and press tab in bash terminal ...
[05:49] <wickedpuppy> LOL
[05:49] <O2> wick
[05:49] <wickedpuppy> my mistake
[05:49] <chuckyp> Is there a way to hid rythmbox on minimize so that it doesn't show up on the applications list but it just shows up in the apptray?
[05:49] <O2> wickedpuppy:  LOL. LOL....
[05:49] <kmu> chuckyp, i did cd to /media/cdrom, then i typed ls, and don't see anything. i know there is stuff on the disk because i can browse the disk using gnome's file browser. the disk is labeled as an "audio disk" on the desktop.
[05:50] <ChocoCid> do "dir" maybe?
[05:50] <chuckyp> kmu, are you sure its mounted to /media/cdrom?
[05:50] <ChocoCid> or sudo ls
[05:50] <ChocoCid> and yeah, it'll need to be mounted
[05:50] <Jbirk> I get a problem
[05:50] <Jbirk> Depends: compiz-plugins
[05:50] <Jbirk> any idea?
[05:50] <ChocoCid> sudo apt-get install compiz-plugins
[05:50] <O2> wickedpuppy: you're ubuntu linux master...I want to try xgl 3d desktop...
[05:51] <ChocoCid> that'll take care of the dependencies for you (hopefully)
[05:51] <chuckyp> O2, read up the wiki on xgl pretty good step by step howto
[05:52] <wickedpuppy> O2, try ... but i think you should do bash basic first .. its very important .. or you can speak our language
[05:52] <wickedpuppy> can't*
[05:52] <Collin> how do I place sshd in my startup before I log in
[05:52] <O2> chuckyp: could I get xgl by:   apt-get xgl?
[05:52] <chuckyp> !tell Collin about ssh
[05:52] <kmu> chuckyp, no, i'm not. it's automounted when i insert it into the computer. when i type mount, i don't see cdrom listed.
[05:52] <chuckyp> O2, its not quite that simple
[05:52] <O2> wickedpuppy:  :P  speed your language??  whats the meaning
[05:53] <chuckyp> kmu, can you post the output of typing mount to pastebin
[05:53] <wickedpuppy> O2, you will know when you do XGL .. you be hacking xorg.conf ..
[05:53] <chuckyp> !paste
[05:53] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:53] <ChocoCid> eh, the XGL installs (if they work) are just copy-paste over and over
[05:53] <ChocoCid> it's when something does wrong that you need to know what's going on
[05:53] <rahmiel> In a lot of my music and video files during play, the bass seems a little too much, or if it gets too loud the bass crackles and distorts... anyone encounter this?
[05:54] <O2> wickedpuppy: you mean if I dont learn bash first, xgl will be difficult, right>
[05:54] <O2> ?
[05:54] <shido> well... in the root's session the color of the themes change... but in my session the color of any theme remains "human" :(
[05:54] <chuckyp> rahmiel, no but the crackling and distortion should be from your speakers not able to handle the bass
[05:54] <chuckyp> O2, yes
[05:54] <_Er1K_> clipping
[05:54] <user__> i need the link to go to a site to download p2p music downloader
[05:54] <chuckyp> O2, bash is essential.  basic linux commands will help you a lot.
[05:54] <_Er1K_> if that is what is happening, it will damage your speakers and stuff in the long term as well
[05:54] <chuckyp> !p2p
[05:54] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network). BitTorrent: see !torrent Direct connect: try valknut. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[05:55] <O2> xorg.conf contains bash scripts??
[05:55] <wickedpuppy> O2, no .. i mean you wil not understand when we talk about technical things ... put it this way a business manager got to know business lingo like shares and stocks and options right ?
[05:55] <chuckyp> user__, there try the link ubotu posted
[05:55] <wickedpuppy> same for you .. you got to learn the linux speak
[05:55] <rahmiel> chuckyp, always a possibility, but  this problem only occured when I switched to dapper. The forum shows a few others encountering this problem but no replies.
[05:55] <user__> k thanx
[05:55] <shido> how can i delete my username and create it again?... i forgot how LOL
[05:55] <loper06> how can set different default root dir for different users in proftpd?
[05:56] <chuckyp> rahmiel, what problem i'm sorry don't remember?
[05:56] <esj> what package is sasl
[05:56] <Collin> I want to sshd to startup before I even log in. How can I do that?
[05:56] <esj> oops
[05:56] <kitche> loper06: use a chroot
[05:56] <chuckyp> shido, userdel
[05:56] <kmu> chuckyp, sure http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26133/
[05:56] <loper06> kitche: how?
[05:56] <shido> thanks chuckyp
[05:56] <O2> wickedpuppy, oh, thats why I don't understand all what you say!
[05:56] <esj> saslauthd  what package is it in?
[05:57] <chuckyp> kmu, I don't see the cd as being mounted
[05:57] <Tomcat_> esj: apt-cache search saslauthd
[05:57] <O2> OK, I will learn bash first. maybe in the weekend I will try xgl :P
[05:57] <Tomcat_> esj: Mh... no result. Check packages.ubuntu.com
[05:57] <kitche> loper06: ah ubuntu odoesn't have a chroot package for it
[05:58] <rahmiel> chuckyp, similar problem: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=194435&highlight=bass
[05:58] <wickedpuppy> O2, yes .. and thats why you got to start speaking like us .. no more windows speak ... running a file in linux is way different from running in windows.. its not just double click ..you got to check it has +x and if not chmod +x file ... do you know what i am saying ?
[05:58] <esj> k  was getting nada by other methods as well
[05:58] <chuckyp> rahmiel, hrm.. there is a mixer you can adjust that stuff on trying to remember the name of it.
[05:58] <O2> wickedpuppy: my GMA900 VIDEO CARD,  is it enough for running xgl?
[05:59] <wickedpuppy> O2, its not gforce or ati ? how much graphics memory it comes with ?
[05:59] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: im getting errors while intalling 6.06
[05:59] <O2> wickedpuppy, what's chmod?
[05:59] <kmu> chuckyp, i know, that's what's frustrating. the cd icon is on my desktop and i'm playing a cda from it right now.
[05:59] <ChocoCid> change mode
[05:59] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, I tried to install the drivers...and it says need gcc dev and/or libc dev files...I checked synaptic and libc dev files seems to be installed but I can't find gcc dev files
[05:59] <ChocoCid> it changes the permissions on your file
[05:59] <wickedpuppy> O2, next thing you learn is man .. man chmod
[05:59] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, what sort of errors?
[05:59] <MaKaTiGuY> logical block
[05:59] <esj> sasl2-bin
[05:59] <chuckyp> kmu, hrm.. well you need to find out where its mounting it to  maybe try sudo ls /media/cdrom
[06:00] <rahmiel> chuckyp, I found some pointing to alsamixer, but when I use it in terminal it states 'no mixer elems found'
[06:00] <ChocoCid> in windows, you use .exe to denote an executable file, in linux you have 3 permissions: read/write/execute, for three sets of users
[06:00] <chuckyp> kmu, see if that outputs it.
[06:00] <chuckyp> rahmiel, that was it alsamixer
[06:00] <MaKaTiGuY> 1/0 erors on hdb
[06:00] <O2> intel chipset integrated video card, GMA900, with 128MB video ram in the basic system RAM
[06:00] <wickedpuppy> O2, its not good asking us for every commands in linux .. you will go nut doing so .. there is a man command to help you .. man chmod will tell you about chmod and its flags
[06:00] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, you need build-essentials  package
[06:00] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, also you probably will need kernel-headers for your kernel
[06:00] <wickedpuppy> O2, its not dedicated ? its going to be slow ...you can try
[06:00] <kmu> no, i was already logged in as root. :(
[06:00] <O2> wickedpuppy: sorry! cause I don't know chmod is a command! lol...
[06:01] <loper06> how can set different default root dir for different users in proftpd?
[06:01] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, sudo apt-get install build-essentials linux-image-`uname -r`-headers
[06:01] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: i have 6 partions on my drive
[06:01] <wickedpuppy> O2, its ok ... just relax and take things one by one ..
[06:01] <kmu> chuckyp, no, i was already logged in as root. :(
[06:01] <k0rd> The media was bad :(
[06:01] <k0rd> and no more cd-r's
[06:01] <O2> GMA900, 3dmark2001, 4000 score!
[06:01] <Tokenbad> build-essentials is installed
[06:01] <O2> wickedpuppy: :) thanks!
[06:02] <wickedpuppy> np :P
[06:02] <ChocoCid> i thought you had to do "man -k chmod" ?
[06:02] <SAS_Spidey01> I've just installed ubuntu, using the alt.CD, it detected my hard drive as "sde" instead of sda (I have 1 hdd). - Now on the boot up it can't find the root fs to mount it
[06:02] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, err linux-headers-`uname -r`
[06:02] <O2> GMA900 doesn't support vertex shader in hardware.
[06:02] <ChocoCid> ah, i see
[06:02] <Tokenbad> chuckyp, E: Couldn't find package linux-image-2.6.15-27-386-headers
[06:02] <ChocoCid> info chmod would work too, no?
[06:03] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, yeah my bad it was a typo try linux-headers-`uname -r`
[06:03] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, after you have those two packages installed you should be able to build the driver.
[06:03] <O2> GMA900 can play WARIII fluently though.  If it can't run xgl, I would cry and cry...
[06:03] <wickedpuppy> O2, start reading the wiki on xgl then ...
[06:03] <Tokenbad> chuckyp,  linux-headers-2.6.15-27-386 is already the newest version.
[06:03] <O2> ok
[06:03] <Tokenbad> =8-(
[06:04] <collin> how do I place sshd in my startup for when I boot up the computer before I login
[06:04] <O2> I am having lunch, see u
[06:04] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, hrm... then when you sudo sh NVIDIA-blah or whatever their directions say?
[06:04] <Tokenbad> I did that...then it said x was running so booted to terminal
[06:04] <esac> collin: /etc/rc6.d ?
[06:05] <Tokenbad> and it then said gcc dev and libc dev was needed
[06:05] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, what error did it give you?
[06:05] <loper06> how can set different default root dir for different users in proftpd?
[06:05] <mnepton> mornin' kids
[06:05] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, well if you have gcc you should be fine hold on let me find something
[06:05] <ChocoCid> chroot them, i think, loper06
[06:05] <ChocoCid> might want to do man chroot
[06:06] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, sudo apt-get reinstall build-essentials     cuz something goofy is going on there.
[06:07] <rahmiel> chuckyp, alsamixer returns 'no mixer elems found'
[06:07] <kmu> chuckyp, thanks for your help, about to flood one more time
[06:07] <chuckyp> Tokenbad, also there is no need to reboot to go to terminal  to get to one hit ctrl+alt+f1   then you can type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop   that will stop X  then if you sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start  will start it back up when you are done.
[06:08] <chuckyp> rahmiel, are you running kubuntu?
[06:08] <chuckyp> kmu, np
[06:08] <rahmiel> chuckup, Regular ubuntu
[06:08] <rahmiel> chuckyp*
[06:09] <chuckyp> rahmiel, hrm.. thats wierd....   alsamixer should work.  But nontheless no idea how to adjust the bass perhaps someone else would know
[06:09] <SAS_Spidey01> let's see if a hand written fstab helps
[06:09] <kmu> so, i have a cd in my cdrom, and i'm playing music from the disk right now. the problem: i open a console and type `mount' and don't see the cdrom listed. why not?
[06:09] <collin> esac: how do i tell rc6.d to start up sshd
[06:09] <ChocoCid> because it's not mounted, would be my guess...
[06:09] <ChocoCid> how... odd
[06:10] <kmu> ChocoCid, doesn't it have to be mounted to be playing?
[06:10] <ChaosFan> collin: runlevel6 doesn't start anything
[06:10] <ChocoCid> i'm not sure it'd have to be mounted into the filesystem to start playing
[06:10] <kmu> hmm
[06:10] <ChaosFan> collin: even if you want it to
[06:10] <ChocoCid> mount puts it in the file system
[06:10] <ChocoCid> i'm trying to think how to mount the cd
[06:10] <ChocoCid> do you know what the drive letter is?
[06:10] <ChocoCid> *name
[06:11] <mnepton> kmu: what does df -h tell you?
[06:11] <collin> ChaosFan: how do i start sshd at boot time?
[06:11] <ciscomonkey> anyone have xshipwars running on ubuntu?
[06:11] <Dr_willis> You normally dont mount an audio cd. :P
[06:11] <Dr_willis> its read as raw data
[06:11] <ChocoCid> yeah, figured it was something like that
[06:11] <ChaosFan> collin: default runlevel is 3, so let it start sshd
[06:11] <Dr_willis> Windows "fakes" the mounting of an audio cd to show the tracks and wav files.
[06:12] <collin> ChaosFan: what do I need to do to get it there?
[06:12] <ChocoCid> mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom would do it, or not?
[06:12] <poningru> k0rd: did it work?
[06:12] <SAS_Spidey01> My machine won't complete start up
[06:12] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: can i install 6.96 under winxp?
[06:12] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: can i install 6.06 under winxp?
[06:12] <ChocoCid> what windows you have doesn't matter to ubuntu
[06:12] <baconbacon> Dr_willis: kde does that too
[06:13] <Dr_willis> That would be a neat trick
[06:13] <cwillu> not really any different from mounting any other filesystem
[06:13] <ChaosFan> collin: do you have a script ``/etc/init.d/ssh'' ?
[06:13] <variant> anyone know how to add java support to glad gui designer?
[06:13] <Dr_willis> baconbacon,  if you say so.. the extent of my audio cd ussage is popping it in.. using grip to rip to ogg.. putting the cd up. :)
[06:13] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: can i install 6.06 under winxp?
[06:13] <fetale> I have a persistent locale error, all the forum posts I've tried aren't helping, can somebody help?
[06:13] <kmu> mnepton, df -h output is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26134/
[06:13] <variant> anyone know how to add java support to glade gui designer?

[06:14] <baconbacon> Dr_willis: it's been a while since i used kde but i remember having a flac, ogg, wav and mp3 "folder" on the audio cd
[06:14] <MaKaTiGuY> can i install ubuntu under winxp?
[06:14] <SAS_Spidey01> _init cannot find my root file system_
[06:14] <Dr_willis> baconbacon,  heh - i will look some time..
[06:14] <Dr_willis> MaKaTiGuY,  NO.
[06:14] <variant> MaKaTiGuY: what do you mean? you can install it along side xp, on the same hard disk
[06:14] <Dr_willis> :)
[06:15] <ChocoCid> you could use a virtual machine if you insisted, heh
[06:15] <ChaosFan> collin: if so, create a symlink to it called /etc/rc3.d/SXXssh, where XX is a 2-digit decimal number. if you look at the other symlinks in /etc/rc3.d/, the numbers denote order of execution from low to high
[06:15] <Dr_willis> variant,  wouldent that be 'beside' xp? not under.. :)
[06:15] <ChocoCid> running an OS inside an OS otherwise is a bad idea
[06:15] <cwillu> MaKaTiGuY: ubuntu is a replacement/alternative for xp
[06:15] <variant> MaKaTiGuY: and actualy you can if you have vmware or somthing, but htat is not recomended
[06:15] <variant> Dr_willis: thats what i said
[06:15] <ChocoCid> yeah, it's totally better to do the other way around
[06:15] <MaKaTiGuY> i min, im nubbing xp ryt now and i would like to install ubuntu
[06:15] <collin> ChaosFan: I don't appear to have that script
[06:15] <variant> Dr_willis: he said under, not me
[06:15] <ChocoCid> MaKaTiGuY : that's fine
[06:15] <ChocoCid> You can split the hard drive up and dual boot
[06:15] <ChaosFan> collin: do you have sshd installed?
[06:15] <ChocoCid> the installer makes it very easy to do so
[06:15] <cwillu> MaKaTiGuY: have you played with the live cd?
[06:16] <fetale> nobody is willing to lend a hand with this locale error?
[06:16] <MaKaTiGuY> ya, it only shows the windws apllication of the ubuntu

[06:17] <SAS_Spidey01> For the love os petes sister, try paste bin !
[06:17] <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)
[06:17] <fetale> oop
[06:17] <sidny4> haha, you're fired! :D
[06:17] <ChocoCid> MaKaTiGuY: after that, you can install Ubuntu off the CD while running it (so you can get in here with gaim or xchat) off the livedisc)
[06:17] <fetale> the more I know
[06:18] <MaKaTiGuY> ChocoCid: im geting errors while installing ubuntu
[06:18] <kmu> i'm sorry about the flood
[06:18] <ChocoCid> MaKaTiGuY: did you restart your computer with the CD in it and load from the CDROM/
[06:18] <ChocoCid> ?
[06:18] <MaKaTiGuY> yes
[06:18] <collin> ChaosFan: I'm trying to setup a server, but I don't have monitor for it or a keyboard so I'm connecting through ssh, but it seems that I have to login for sshd to work
[06:18] <nalioth> kmu: think "pastebin"  :)
[06:18] <ChocoCid> what was the problem?
[06:18] <MaKaTiGuY> and installs automatically
[06:18] <cwillu> fetale: one sec
[06:18] <MaKaTiGuY> 1/o erors on hdb

[06:19] <kurtles> hey i need help to install linux ubuntu can any1 please help...i downloaded it, burnt it to a disc, changed it soo cd rom was the first in the boot order, restarted comp (with cd in it) and nothing it boots normally can any1 help please
[06:19] <SAS_Spidey01> I guess I'll need to try Arch or Fedora Core, for once I wish I had a gnu/linux system that matched freebsd's HW support on this damn box
[06:19] <ChaosFan> collin: so you do connect a keyboard to it to log in?
[06:19] <fetale> cwillu: thanks
[06:19] <ChocoCid> HW?
[06:19] <indigoblu> SAS_Spidey01, what piece of hardware?
[06:19] <kurtles> hello?
[06:19] <ChaosFan> collin: or is sshd just not working?
[06:19] <ChocoCid> kurtles : check your boot order again in the BIOS
[06:19] <kmu> exit
[06:19] <SAS_Spidey01> A Gateway MX5048 Multimedia Desktop
[06:19] <cwillu> fetale: http://forum.freespire.org/showthread.php?t=1358 might be relevant
[06:20] <collin> ChaosFan: i borrowed my neighbors keyboard, haha, and logged in so it works now
[06:20] <sidny4> How do I make sure sshd starts at boot-up?
[06:20] <MaKaTiGuY> ChocoCid: i have 6 partitions on my hd
[06:20] <collin> ChaosFan: i'm on a laptop now
[06:20] <sidny4> like do I have to add some command for sshd or will it start automatically?
[06:20] <SAS_Spidey01> No problems using FreeBSD un till I try to  boot two installs of it. GNU/Linux - a problem with every distro I have tried
[06:20] <ChaosFan> collin: logged in via ssh?
[06:20] <bimberi> sidny4: how did you install sshd?
[06:20] <ChocoCid> MaKaTiGuY: that's a lot of partitions...
[06:20] <unfknblvbl> lol
[06:20] <ChaosFan> sidny4: default behaviour is to start automatically if installed
[06:21] <unfknblvbl> how big is your hdd ?
[06:21] <fetale> hmm, I've tried reconfiguring the locales numerous times at this point, for whatever reason it isn't working
[06:21] <sidny4> through synaptic
[06:21] <sidny4> openssh
[06:21] <MaKaTiGuY> ChocoCid: hehehe, what should i do? does it affect the installation
[06:21] <fetale> cwillu: sorry, that was for you
[06:21] <bimberi> sidny4: the openssh-server package sets up an initscript automatically
[06:21] <ChocoCid> shouldn't
[06:21] <ChocoCid> just try again, i'd think
[06:21] <cwillu> fetale: k, let me look a bit longer :p
[06:21] <sidny4> ok, wasn't sure if it would or if I had to add something
[06:22] <collin> ChaosFan: not currently because the server doesn't have internet(the internet at my appartment complex is wireless) i have a wireless router connected to the server for now but I can't connect to the server and the internet at the same time
[06:22] <MaKaTiGuY> ChocoCid: how about the errors while installing
[06:22] <sidny4> !vnc server
[06:22] <ChocoCid> hope they don't happen this time :P
[06:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vnc server - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:23] <ChaosFan> collin: you know that your setup sure is strange?
[06:23] <SAS_Spidey01> Every distro I've installed on this box, sits on my desk as a bunch of paper weights :@
[06:23] <fetale> cwillu: haven't tried that yet, I'll see if it works
[06:23] <nandan> hi, i got installed fedor core 5 on my system i have given a swap of 2GB, a boot and '/' . now i neede to install ubuntu can any one tell me about the partition for ubuntu??
[06:23] <collin> ChaosFan: it's strange, but it's all I have. for now I just want it as print server
[06:24] <fetale> hmmm... no updates
[06:24] <fetale> cwillu: didn't quite work
[06:24] <collin> ChaosFan: i don't have a wireless card for the server yet so it has no internet
[06:24] <fetale> cwillu: quite as in not at all
[06:24] <cwillu> lol
[06:24] <ChocoCid> !hardware
[06:24] <ChaosFan> collin: but you said you have it connected?
[06:24] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[06:24] <cwillu> fetale: reconfig locales after?
[06:25] <collin> ChaosFan: it's connected to a wireless router is all. I use that to connect to it with my laptop
[06:25] <fetale> cwillu: got the same error on the repackage
[06:25] <nandan> can i keep the same swap which i provided for fedora for ubuntu also??
[06:25] <cwillu> k
[06:25] <bimberi> nandan: yes
[06:25] <ChaosFan> collin: and your wireless router doesn't allow wireless clients to connect to other clients connected to it via ethernet?
[06:26] <nandan> bimberi: how abt boot and /??
[06:26] <nandan> after ubuntu installation am not able to acces fedora
[06:26] <wilssgrant> Hey guys, anyone know much about compiling from source? I am having weird issue, posted on the forums, the link is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1598503
[06:26] <bimberi> nandan: no, ubuntu will need its own / partition (which includes /boot by default)
[06:27] <collin> ChaosFan: it does, but I'm connected to an other wireless router that is owned by my apartment complex that provides free internet, so i can't connect to both at once.
[06:27] <bimberi> nandan: yes, you might need to configure grub to include fedora as a boot option
[06:27] <variant> wilssgrant: its a long time since i compiled mplayer but i seem to remember that its --enable-gui
[06:27] <chuckyp> !tell nandan about grub
[06:27] <variant> wilssgrant: so ./configure --enable-gui
[06:27] <variant> wilssgrant: or --enable-gtk... i cant remember exactly
[06:28] <wilssgrant> Really? im following the instructions at http://www.opera.com/linux/docs/plugins/install/#mplayer
[06:28] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, whould be in the readme
[06:28] <sidny4> !vnc
[06:28] <ubotu> vnc is a way of doing remote desktop.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !freenx.
[06:28] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: I followed the readme and ensured I had what it wanted installed
[06:29] <torchie> !freenx
[06:29] <ubotu> freenx is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[06:29] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, its the --enable-x switch
[06:29] <cwillu> fetale: in a terminal, what does echo $LANG $LANGUAGE say?
[06:29] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: The Opera tutorial says that is needed, whats wrong with it?
[06:29] <chuckyp> dunno
[06:30] <fetale> cwillu: en_US.UTF-8 en
[06:30] <cwillu> fetale: one sec (pocket aces :p)
[06:30] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, you know opera 9 is availible in the canical repos right?
[06:30] <ChaosFan> collin: ah, that's the point, you don't have your own internet connection?

[06:31] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: I'm trying to get mplayer's plug in to work with opera, I already have opera installed
[06:31] <MrJones> is anyone familiar with lampp? similar to xampp but for linux? I know it doesnt deal with ubuntu but I wanted to know what might be the default username
[06:31] <collin> ChaosFan: basically, it's provided by the place I live at and it's only wireless
[06:31] <cwillu> fetale: you're launching the perl thingy from the terminal, or know how to?
[06:32] <ChaosFan> collin: i see. and how do you expect getting help if you can't try what you're proposed?
[06:32] <fetale> cwillu: I'm trying to aptitude install automake1.9
[06:32] <collin> ChaosFan: so i'm just going to take notes and then log on to the server and try to fix it. What exactly do I need to do to tell it to start up at boot time?
[06:32] <cwillu> an aptitude is giving the error?
[06:33] <fetale> cwillu: not just aptitude, but that's when I noticed it
[06:33] <ChaosFan> collin: as starting at boottime is the default behaviour for sshd, perhaps you did not install it?
[06:33] <fetale> cwillu: I installed via apt-get
[06:34] <cwillu> fetale, what happens if you put LANGUAGE="" before the command?
[06:34] <ChaosFan> collin: it basically just needs to be installed and needs a corresponding /etc/init.d/-script with a symlink in /etc/rc3.d/ or /etc/rc1.d/
[06:34] <cwillu> LANGUAGE="" aptitude install automake1.9
[06:34] <ChaosFan> arghs
[06:34] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, hrm... not really sure
[06:34] <kurtles> does any1 have a different link to download ubuntu?
[06:34] <ChaosFan> collin: /etc/rc2.d/ instead of rc1.d/
[06:34] <ChaosFan> collin: and that depends on what runlevel you're booting into
[06:34] <collin> ChaosFan: Do I need to do anything special to get it to connect to my wireless router since it has a wep
[06:35] <jasper> is any action required after editing /boot/grub/menu.1st?
[06:35] <Elephant> I just installed the desktop version of Ubuntu, and I wasn't paying attention during the installation process.  I also neglected to set up a user account before rebooting.  Now I can't log in, and my attempts to google the default post-install user have failed.  Can anyone help me out?
[06:35] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: just to test, I tried make, and it gives me errors and gives up
[06:35] <ChaosFan> collin: that has nothing to do with sshd
[06:35] <cwillu> Elephant: log in using the recovery kernel
[06:35] <mike-ekim> I logged in to my box, and its telling me i have new mail
[06:35] <collin> ChaosFan: how do I know what runlevel I'm booting into
[06:35] <mike-ekim> and this came out after I installed Postfix.
[06:35] <fetale> cwillu: the error still comes up
[06:35] <mike-ekim> how can I check this? and what type of mail, is it like regular mail?
[06:35] <jasper> Elephant, or just reinstall it.
[06:35] <cwillu> Elephant: you can set up a username/password from there (should be able to google it)
[06:35] <fetale> what's the paste-bin again?
[06:35] <Elephant> From the login screen?
[06:36] <ChaosFan> collin: and concerning wireless connections, i'm not very experienced, maybe someone else should help you there

[06:37] <kalm-> Hello!
[06:37] <fetale> cwillu: makes more sense
[06:37] <collin> ChaosFan: I guessed I just assumed that sshd wasn't working because it wasn't showing up on the connected devices of the router, but when i logged in to the server I removed the wep and sshd worked so I assumed I needed to be logged in
[06:38] <collin> ChaosFan: thanks a lot for your help, i really appreciate it
[06:38] <kurtles> wat other operating systems are there?

[06:39] <chuckyp> variant, ahh cool that was pretty cool back in the day.
[06:39] <cwillu> fetale: which ubuntu are you running?
[06:40] <Jbirk> I cannot get compiz installed
[06:40] <fetale> dapper
[06:40] <Jbirk> the package is broken
[06:40] <Jbirk> any ideas
[06:40] <Jbirk> ?
[06:40] <Jbirk> I am running Dapper
[06:40] <variant> Jbirk: /join ubuntu-xgl
[06:40] <collin> I have been using ubuntu for several months now, what is better about kubuntu and kde?
[06:40] <ChaosFan> collin: thats a matter of personal taste
[06:40] <variant> collin: kde is more windows like
[06:40] <das-q> ChaosFan: hah, just wanted to write personal taste
[06:40] <ChaosFan> ;)
[06:41] <variant> collin: personally i dont like it, you might though.. no reason not to try (install with aptitude so you can roll it back if you dont lik eit)
[06:41] <kurtles> wat other operating systems are there?
[06:41] <collin> does one have more support or better programs associated with it
[06:41] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: Negative, had same errors
[06:41] <chuckyp> !tell Jbirk about xgl
[06:41] <kurtles> like with linux
[06:41] <chuckyp> Jbirk, xgl support is in #ubuntu-xgl
[06:41] <variant> kurtles: stop spammin the same question over and over again
[06:41] <cwillu> fetale: still looking...

[06:41] <kalm-> i need help with this :( no forums helped and ... well
[06:41] <chuckyp> collin, I switch every once in a wile but always come back to gnome.
[06:41] <fetale> cwillu: I understand, I've been at this for the past hour or so. Thanks!
[06:42] <ChaosFan> collin: i personally don't even _have_ a desktop environment in the strict sense of the word ;)
[06:42] <chuckyp> !tell kalm- about paste
[06:42] <anfangs> will you take a performance hit if you install an OS on the second half of a 100GB drive?
[06:42] <chuckyp> kalm-, what sort of video card do you have?  and whats the scenario is this a fresh install or live cd boot?
[06:42] <ChaosFan> anfangs: no, that doesn't matter
[06:42] <collin> i tried to install kde with synaptic and my login screen was kde, but when I logged in, i was back to gnome?
[06:42] <cwillu> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1171422 might seem apropos, although its in reference to edgy installs and installs that had edgy attempted on them
[06:43] <cwillu> might work anyway
[06:43] <anfangs> ChaosFan: thanks
[06:43] <ChaosFan> collin: try installing kubuntu-desktop
[06:43] <cwillu> fetale: ^^^
[06:43] <kalm-> i have an ATi Radeon IGP 345M... i believe
[06:43] <kurtles> can anybody tell me link for linux fedora
[06:43] <chuckyp> anfangs, very little one.  but if its on the outer edge of the drive it would actuallyb e faster.  But with hdd's now adays you wouldn't even be able to notice it.
[06:43] <kalm-> there should be no trouble since  lsmod and lspci BOTH give me some info about this card
[06:43] <ChaosFan> kalm-: http://fedora.redhat.com/
[06:43] <chuckyp> kurtles, /join #fedora
[06:43] <collin> ChaosFan: once I install it, how do i set the default to gnome or kde?
[06:43] <cwillu> fetale: I don't see anything in there that should break anything at least, so it might be worth a shot (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1171422)
[06:43] <anfangs> chuckyp: ok, good enough
[06:43] <wilssgrant> chucky: worked this time for some reason! amazing! much love and thanks <3
[06:44] <kalm-> but it gives me THAT output every time i try to run UT2003
[06:44] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, np
[06:44] <kalm-> ( a game )
[06:44] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: I'm going to post in the thread that you came to the rescue in irc :)
[06:44] <chuckyp> kalm-, what drivers are you using?  did you install any?
[06:44] <ChaosFan> collin: i don't kown if kubuntu-desktop uninstalls gnome, but if not you will be able to chosse on the login screen (gdm calls that menu "session", dunno how kdm calls it)
[06:45] <kalm-> no i didnt install any myself...
[06:45] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, np  just put the link that worked that way more people will see it.
[06:45] <jasper> is any action required after editing /boot/grub/menu.1st?
[06:45] <chuckyp> ChaosFan, no it doens't uninstall gnome and you have the option to keep using gdm if you want.
[06:45] <kalm-> it crashed my X server alltogether when i tried to install these drivers i found from ATI
[06:45] <das-q> collin: look, I just did the following in konqueror to copy data from my server to my host here: pressed ctrl+shift+L for horizontal split view, hit F6 to get into the adress-bar, typed fish://z and chose the machine which was already in the dropdown-list (z is the first letter of the user at that machine, fish is the protocol in konqi to connect to ssh), then I entered the login credentials and dragged and dropped the data which I wanted copied w
[06:45] <das-q> at I wanna do but just copies it)
[06:45] <chuckyp> jasper, save it
[06:45] <chuckyp> kalm-, you should read the wiki on ati
[06:45] <chuckyp> !ati
[06:45] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:46] <kalm-> where may i find the wiki?
[06:46] <ChaosFan> so now, i'm off for some hours, see you
[06:46] <chuckyp> kalm-, you need the driver for rendering support so your game will work.  follo the link ubotu posted
[06:46] <chuckyp> !tell kalm- about ati
[06:46] <collin> ChaosFan: thanks for your help
[06:47] <collin> das-q: thats pretty neat
[06:47] <chuckyp> collin, it won't uninstall gnome if you didn't catch that.
[06:47] <chuckyp> collin, and while its installing you will have the option to keep gdm or switch to kdm
[06:48] <chuckyp> collin, there are plenty of links about installing kubuntu-desktop on ubuntu on google.
[06:48] <ChocoCid> !kubuntu
[06:48] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment. For more info see http://kubuntu.org for support: #kubuntu ; to install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[06:48] <ChocoCid> ditto...
[06:48] <ChocoCid> !xubuntu
[06:48] <ubotu> Xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE, for more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org  To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[06:48] <collin> chuckyp: thanks I'll look into it
[06:48] <ChocoCid> if you want to get rid of them, do "sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop"
[06:48] <ChocoCid> i tried all 3, like GNOME the best
[06:49] <ChocoCid> YMMV, i know KDE is popular and xcfe is lightweight
[06:49] <torchie> one thing I don't like about installing xubuntu from ubuntu
[06:49] <torchie> no rat in the wheel logo on startup
[06:49] <torchie> :(
[06:49] <ChocoCid> ha
[06:49] <chuckyp> lol
[06:50] <chuckyp> I used to have the cool arse pic of a rat in a box looking out and it was really cool as a desktop background for xfce.  Just cant' find it anymore.
[06:50] <fetale> cwillu: still going through this...
[06:50] <chuckyp> It was like the rat was coming out of your monitor.
[06:50] <cwillu> fetale: ya, I got the sense that it could take a while
[06:51] <meso> looking for a bit of help. I have a new Toshiba laptop, and want to install Ubuntu completely on an external USB-2 hard drive attached to it, and be able to boot off of that. Can it be done? The installer has given me some fits trying.
[06:51] <cwillu> torchie: one advantage of installing ubuntu from xubuntu... :)
[06:51] <fetale> cwillu: sudo apt-get source -b glib gives me errors... ugh
[06:52] <cwillu> fetale: bah;  it may need build-essential installed first
[06:53] <chuckyp> meso, can you boot off of usb from the laptop?
[06:53] <chuckyp> meso, i.e. can you select usb as a boot optoin on your laptops bios?
[06:54] <torchie> I've always wondered what would happen if you booted off of a usb drive and then took it out; it doesn't prevent you from taking it out like with cd drives
[06:54] <cwillu> torchie: probably about the same as would happen if you used a paperclip in the cd drive :p
[06:55] <wickedpuppy> torchie, i suppose it would be called premature ejaculation ...
[06:55] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: Dang, well it compiled, I copied over the right files into opera's plugin folder, but alas it still does not work (loading a page with embeded video results in a blank grey box where the video should be
[06:55] <wickedpuppy> pardon my pun ...
[06:55] <SkyMountaineer> has any one had experiance with the tecra A8
[06:55] <tolstoy> folks, do linux files have a "creation date", and if so, how do you show them via command line?
[06:55] <tolstoy> I only see "modified" and "accessed" via nautilus (say)
[06:55] <torchie> I don't know what happens if you take out the cd!
[06:55] <cwillu> tolstoy: ls -l shows a bunch of extra info
[06:55] <fetale> cwillu: how would that change things?
[06:55] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, maybe a codec problem
[06:55] <meso> chuckyp - yes, you can select USB as a boot option, and order the boot options in the bios
[06:55] <tolstoy> cwillu: only shows one date, though
[06:55] <hayden> whats a good smtp server package i can use?
[06:56] <chuckyp> meso, should be possible
[06:56] <cwillu> tolstoy: 'man ls' will give a bunch of options you can select (what to display, etc)
[06:56] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: Even though mplayer works fine in firefox?
[06:56] <cwillu> fetale: build-essential?
[06:56] <tolstoy> cwillu: okay.  well, I didn't see anything there, but I'll look a little closer this time.
[06:56] <cwillu> fetale:  the apt-source -b ... command tries to build that package from source
[06:57] <hayden> ?
[06:57] <fetale> cwillu: okay, that makes more sense to me
[06:57] <meso> the last try, it put the root on a partition on the main drive
[06:57] <chuckyp> meso, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80811
[06:57] <fetale> cwillu: because I haven't been able to build

[06:57] <Jewfro> I was trying to install my printer driver, which failed.  I'm getting an error now and cannot install anything.

[06:57] <SkyMountaineer> I have a sound card issue with the tecra A8 it shows up with alsa and oss but I still get no sound any ideas

[06:57] <Jewfro> that's the error
[06:57] <meso> chuckyp - I'll take a look at that, tks

[06:59] <fetale> I'll post a forum topic, maybe somebody tomorrow can pick it up
[06:59] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, you should probably check the disk for errors.  If it doesn't find any try burning the iso at a slower speed.

[07:00] <cwillu> fetale: paste the errors into http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[07:00] <wilssgrant> chuckyp: would it be a codec problem even though mplayer works fine in firefox?
[07:00] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, yeah I would try burning the iso at a slower rate
[07:00] <MaKaTiGuY> ok...
[07:00] <SkyMountaineer> can any one help out with a sound card issue
[07:00] <MaKaTiGuY> i'll try that one, brb, tnx
[07:01] <chuckyp> wilssgrant, no  if it works in mplayer or with firefox it should work.  Thats odd I would maybe look for a support forum for the mplayerplug-in .
[07:01] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, i burn all mine at like 4x
[07:01] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, just to be safe i've noticed some iso's especially os's get borked by burning at full speed
[07:01] <fetale> cwillu: is there any log in particular that you're looking for? or just the terminal output?
[07:01] <chuckyp> !tell SkyMountaineer about ask
[07:02] <cwillu> just the terminal
[07:02] <cwillu> from the apt-build command
[07:03] <cwillu> sweet, three cups of coffee in one hour.
[07:03] <cwillu> at this rate, I'll be dead by morning :)
[07:03] <chuckyp> cwillu, I know the feeling.
[07:03] <jojoman02> anyone know if mpeg2 decoding is done by graphics card or mobo?
[07:03] <chuckyp> I have to stay up to switch to night shift tomorrow so I'd figure i'd waste time on here.
[07:04] <chuckyp> jojoman02, depends if you have a mpeg2 decoder that is hardware or software based.
[07:04] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: im using a WRCD
[07:04] <chuckyp> jojoman02, most current video cards do this on a hardware level.
[07:04] <ChaosFan> .oO( and on the hardware )
[07:04] <MaKaTiGuY> 12X
[07:04] <jojoman02> chuckyp: how will i know, will it say on the card? does the nvidia/ati usually have mpeg2 decoding in their cards, what is the safest bet?\
[07:04] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: 12X CD-WR
[07:05] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, yeah like I say I know if i burn it at 52x or so it freaks I usually have to crank it down to like 4x for it to be sucessfull.
[07:05] <chuckyp> jojoman02, most your current cards handle decoding on a hardware level.   But old school stuff you have to have a software decoder.
[07:05] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: is it ok to ReWritable CDs
[07:05] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: is it ok to use ReWritable CDs
[07:05] <chuckyp> jojoman02, they also make hardware encoders like the haugpauge tv cards etc...
[07:05] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, yeah shouldn't matter
[07:06] <fetale> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26137/
[07:06] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, saves you some coasters atleast
[07:06] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: do u think 12X is fast?
[07:06] <cwillu> fetale: one sec, full house
[07:07] <fetale> cwillu: I didn't read the second line you posted, I'll send you the apt-build error
[07:07] <chuckyp> fetale, did you upgrade to edgy?
[07:07] <cwillu> fetale: k
[07:07] <fetale> chuckyp: no
[07:07] <chuckyp> fetale, you need to reconfigure locale
[07:07] <chuckyp> for one
[07:07] <fetale> should I just apt-get remove and then install again?
[07:08] <fetale> or is there a config file I should edit somewhere?
[07:08] <chuckyp> fetale, sudo dpkg-reconfigure locale
[07:08] <chuckyp> errr locales
[07:08] <fetale> done that, it's a dead end
[07:08] <cwillu> chuckyp: I do believe fetale's been there and done that :)
[07:08] <chuckyp> cwillu, ahh I had that problem when I dist-upgraded to edgy I noticed hadn't been paying attention to his previous problems though
[07:09] <SkyMountaineer> can I ask for some help in configering my sound card ?
[07:09] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: sure.
[07:09] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, I dunno give it a try but like I say I usually do 4x walk a way have a smoke or whatever and come back and try it.
[07:09] <cwillu> chuckyp: I know, I'm still suspicious edy's got some influence in this somehow
[07:09] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, this is assuming your cdrom is /dev/hdb   primary slave drive on your pc
[07:09] <SkyMountaineer> ubuntu see it as an alsa and oss but i can not get sound from it
[07:10] <fetale> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26138/
[07:10] <SkyMountaineer> i have followed the fourms and still no joy
[07:10] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: what's the output from ``tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat''?
[07:10] <Jbirk> I have had a great night thanks to all of you guys and girls
[07:10] <Jbirk> I got XGL and Compiz working
[07:11] <Jbirk> and 3D Acceleration, Printing, Internet
[07:11] <SkyMountaineer> 0: Realtek ALC262
[07:11] <Jbirk> Playing DVDs and everything else
[07:11] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: i think my cdrom rive is secondary slave
[07:11] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, /hdd
[07:11] <fetale> cwillu: it's possible, maybe edgy has worked it's way in, in which case should I just get the whole package?
[07:11] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, well give her a try and see what happens with the slower speed burn.
[07:11] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: ``cat /proc/version_signature''
[07:12] <mnepton> take your time. take your fortune. the pilgrimage has gained momentum!
[07:12] <cwillu> fetale: dunno, shouldn't happen though unless you've been installing new repositories, or debs outside of the standard repo's (not that that's bad, merely useful to know if you have)
[07:12] <fetale> I have for compiz...
[07:12] <SkyMountaineer> cat: /proc/version_signature: No such file or directory
[07:13] <cwillu> fetale: pastebin me the output of 'LANGUAGE="en_US:en" locale'
[07:13] <fetale> I'll pastebin my sources.list
[07:13] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: dpkg -l linux-image-$(uname -r)|grep ^ii|awk '{print $3}'
[07:13] <hpklett> does anyone know how I can upgrade libfreetype6 without uninstalling half my desktop?  there's no libfreetype6-dev package matching
[07:13] <fetale> and that too
[07:13] <cwillu> fetale: that too, thanks :)
[07:13] <mnepton> SkyMountaineer: drop the _signature
[07:13] <fetale> :)
[07:13] <cwillu> fetale: quite possible that several of the standard compiz packages are including some edgy stuff now
[07:14] <chuckyp> SkyMountaineer, what type of soundcard?
[07:14] <cwillu> I know I had a video card driver problem due to such a conflict
[07:14] <SkyMountaineer> Linux version 2.6.15-26-386 (buildd@terranova) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)) #1 PREEMPT Thu Aug 3 02:52:00 UTC 2006
[07:14] <fetale> ooof...
[07:14] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: please update to -27.49
[07:14] <cwillu> display would lock up seemly randomly, with xorg using 100% cpu (could check from a different machine), but couldn't kill it
[07:14] <mnepton> SkyMountaineer: there's been a kernel update
[07:14] <SkyMountaineer> well thats the thing it tells me hda intel or reltek
[07:14] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: yep, got that much already.
[07:14] <fetale> cwillu: I've had to do some weird stuff for my video card (damn ATI 200m on an AMD64!)
[07:14] <cwillu> lol, been there, done that
[07:14] <mnepton> SkyMountaineer: what kind of CPU do you have?
[07:15] <crimsun> you need to be running the updated kernel before we continue, however.
[07:15] <cwillu> running the 32bit kernel to avoid issues just like that :)
[07:15] <SkyMountaineer> centrino duo
[07:15] <mnepton> SkyMountaineer: you might want to instal linux-image-686 and the linus-restricted-modules for 686 and try running a 686 kernel
[07:15] <chuckyp> SkyMountaineer, thats yoru processor what type of soundcard is int he box or what type of computer is it.
[07:15] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: /hdd <--- what do you min
[07:16] <SkyMountaineer> toshiba tecra A8 laptop
[07:16] <mnepton> SkyMountaineer: "lspci" will give chuckyp the info he's aksing for
[07:16] <fetale> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26139/
[07:16] <mnepton> jebus. i just *actually spelled* it "aksing"
[07:16] <meso> chuckyp.... I got a "Failed to create a file system" pop-up during the install...
[07:16] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, well devices in linux follow a certain naming convention i.e. hda= primary master hdb=primary slave hdc=secondary master etc....  then partitions go liek hda1  first partiton on primary master.
[07:16] <meso> Here is what I did...
[07:17] <meso> deleted all partitions on the external USB drive and the linux partitions on the internal drive
[07:17] <SkyMountaineer> 0000:00:1b.0 0403: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
[07:17] <meso> booted the ubunto disk - it came up as a hot disk
[07:17] <MaKaTiGuY> chuckyp: ok.thanks
[07:18] <meso> followed the instructions on your link (except I only have the hot disk - the other install I have doesn't recognize the ethernet)
[07:18] <meso> and the result was the failure to create file system
[07:18] <chuckyp> SkyMountaineer, try lscpi | grep audio
[07:18] <meso> ideas?
[07:19] <cwillu> :/
[07:19] <chuckyp> meso, not really experienced enough myself with the usb booting....   maybe google might yield some more answers I know I saw some stuff like using syslinux
[07:19] <FunnyLookinHat> !easysource
[07:19] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:19] <aegeanbot> Wish I knew.
[07:19] <meso> yeah... I haven't done much Linux sysadmining
[07:19] <meso> was hoping this would be easy
[07:20] <cwillu> fetale: one sec
[07:20] <crimsun> chuckyp: please install and reboot into the newest kernel. It will make it a bit easier for me to assist you.
[07:20] <crimsun> chuckyp: sorry
[07:20] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: ^^
[07:20] <meso> the instructions say to not use  live CD, but the install CD. I'm not sure how to tell the diff
[07:20] <fetale> cwillu: np, it's awesome that you're doing anything at all!
[07:20] <SkyMountaineer>  Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
[07:21] <mnepton> meso: you want the -alternate CD to create bootable flasm memory installations
[07:21] <cwillu> fetale: cd to /usr/lib/locales/, and pastebin the output of 'find'
[07:21] <mnepton> *flash
[07:21] <meso> mnepton - I'm going for USB hard drive, but that probably takes the same thing. How do I get that CD in particular?
[07:22] <SkyMountaineer> crimsun:  Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
[07:22] <meso> flash would be cool too, if I could fit it (including VMWARE and XP) into 2 GB

[07:22] <aegeanbot> No idea.
[07:23] <mnepton> meso: it's available at all the download mirros
[07:23] <mnepton> +r
[07:23] <nocti> how do i play flac files on bmp?
[07:23] <mnepton> sidny4: sudo apt-get install gstreamer-plugins-ugly
[07:23] <meso> I'll take a look. Is there some key to its name?
[07:23] <fetale> cwillu: ls: /usr/lib/locales/: No such file or directory!!!!
[07:23] <mnepton> meso: -alternate
[07:23] <cwillu> hmm
[07:23] <fetale> cwillu: /usr/lib/locale/ works though...
[07:24] <cwillu> fetale: what abiyt /usr/share/locale/ ?
[07:24] <sidny4> haha, thanks mnepton
[07:24] <crimsun> SkyMountaineer: I know that; I need you to install and reboot into the newer kernel.
[07:24] <cwillu> oops, that might have been what I wanted
[07:24] <poningru> !sudo
[07:24] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:24] <cwillu> nope, I've got /var/lib/locales
[07:24] <aegeanbot> I don't have a clue!
[07:24] <SkyMountaineer> ok i am doing that now :0
[07:24] <cwillu> and no /var/lib/locale/
[07:24] <SkyMountaineer> :)
[07:24] <meso> tks - I found it... I hope it has one of my network card drivers on it
[07:24] <hpklett> would anyone mind helping me resolve some really icky dependency stuff?
[07:25] <cwillu> fetale: on my system, I've got exactly one folder in /usr/lib/locales/, called supported.d, and inside that, a couple files, without much in them
[07:25] <chuckyp> fetale, what happens when you try dpkg-reconfigure locales ?
[07:25] <fetale> I think I did too at one poing
[07:26] <fetale> *point
[07:26] <cwillu> fetale: the 'no such directory' error you get makes me suspicious
[07:26] <mnepton> one poing only, Vassily.
[07:26] <fetale> I think I get a locale error...
[07:26] <chuckyp> hpklett, ask
[07:26] <MrJones> Hello
[07:26] <chuckyp> fetale, what about sudo apt-get reinstall locales
[07:26] <mnepton> MrJones: want to tell each other fairy tales?
[07:26] <meso>   mnepton - turns out I already have that CD, and it's the one that didn't find my network cards
[07:27] <cwillu> fetale: do you have a /usr/share/locale/ directory with a ton of stuff in it?
[07:27] <meso> but I'll try it again right now and see what happens
[07:27] <chuckyp> mnepton, lmao
[07:27] <fetale> cwillu: locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory - that makes me suspicious
[07:27] <MrJones> I have a tv i use as my monitor for my computer that runs ubuntu how can I fix that every time i open a program the bottom gets cut off
[07:27] <hpklett> well, libfreetype6-dev depends on a later version of libfreetype6, but I can't upgrade it without removing about 50 packages
[07:27] <fetale> cwillu: not a ton, but enough
[07:27] <cwillu> fetale: try the reinstall line he gave above
[07:27] <mnepton> meso: does the desktop CD find those cards?
[07:27] <chuckyp> MrJones, what is your resolution set at?
[07:27] <chuckyp> MrJones, and what type of tv?
[07:27] <cwillu> fetale: otherwise, we'll try to make up the folder that your missing by hand :)  only 2 files, about 10 lines total
[07:27] <fetale> chuckyp, cwillu: I'll give it a shot, thanks
[07:28] <MrJones> 640x480
[07:28] <MrJones> I tried to change it but its no drop down menu
[07:28] <harvix> hello
[07:28] <crimsun> fetale: please pass a whitespace-delimited list of first-column strings from /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED to locale-gen
[07:28] <meso> the desktop CD finds the ethernet card but not the wifi, but that's okay for onw
[07:28] <meso> The alternate CD just now said "No ethernet card was detected"
[07:28] <meso> so I guess my memory was right :-(
[07:28] <chuckyp> meso, hrm... what type of wifi card?
[07:29] <meso> Intel 8945ABG
[07:29] <mnepton> MrJones strikes up a conversation with a black-haired flamenco dancer
[07:29] <meso> the ethernet is RTL8139/810x
[07:29] <mnepton> meso: you using WPA?
[07:29] <chuckyp> MrJones, what type of video card
[07:29] <fetale> it says I have it already if I try to install it...
[07:29] <fetale> cwillu:^^^
[07:29] <meso> I have to wifi LAN segments here - one with WPA, one wide open - until I get things going right
[07:29] <MrJones> Umm intel accelerated
[07:29] <MrJones> I thought it might be my monitor
[07:29] <cwillu> fetale: there's a reinstall option I believe
[07:29] <MrJones> since its a tv
[07:29] <cwillu> one sec
[07:30] <meso> to <== two
[07:30] <mnepton> meso: WPA does not work in Ubuntu until after install. you won;t get a WPA connection during the install process. just let it do its dance, then, when you're installed, use the 10(0)BT to install network-manager-gnome
[07:30] <chuckyp> MrJones, no its a resolution problem I know the nvidia cards let you do a overscan command in the xorg.conf which can be a negative value to allow you to get the image on screen.   You might want to search if intel has an overscan option that can be specified in xorg.conf
[07:31] <meso> mnepton, it is not even detecting the cards - at all - either one - 10BT or WiFi
[07:31] <meso> it is not a matter of finding a WiFi network - it is a matter of the hardware itself
[07:31] <harvix> exist #ubuntu in spanish ?
[07:31] <mnepton> meso: ignore that for the installation.
[07:31] <mnepton> !es > harvix
[07:31] <aegeanbot> Bugger all, I dunno, mnepton.
[07:31] <MrJones> So where would this xorg.conf file be found at?
[07:31] <meso> So I don't need any network connectivity for now?
[07:31] <mnepton> ugh
[07:31] <fetale> crimsun: how do I do that?
[07:31] <mnepton> who brought a bot in here?
[07:32] <crimsun> fetale: you need to choose which locales you want first.
[07:32] <fetale> cwillu: the reinstall command didn't work
[07:32] <fetale> ahh
[07:32] <fetale> I'll try it again..
[07:32] <mnepton> !ops
[07:32] <ubotu> Help! Keybuk, mdz, Amaranth, tritium, ajmitch, crimsun, ogra, CarlK, Seveas, Burgundavia, apokryphos, thoreauputic, nalioth, Madpilot, ompaul, rob, Hobbsee, imbrandon, DBO or gnomefreak!
[07:32] <aegeanbot> Wish I knew!
[07:32] <ajmitch> hm
[07:32] <fetale> E: Invalid operation reinstall
[07:32] <ajmitch> that doesn't look like anyone's bot that I know of..
[07:32] <meso> Should I continue the install with no network at all?
[07:32] <ScurveyFrog> hello, I'm trying to use a core dump in GDB, but it just tells me that the core file is not a core dump and the file format is not recognized
[07:33] <ScurveyFrog> what am I doing wrong?
[07:33] <cwillu> fetale: synaptic or aptitude has the operation I believe
[07:33] <mnepton> meso: yeah, don;t sweat it. when the machine gets into a normal boot it should be OK
[07:33] <fetale> I'll try aptitude...
[07:33] <ajmitch> hi mnepton :)
[07:33] <mnepton> thanks, meng.
[07:33] <ScurveyFrog> I'm using the command: gdb BST core
[07:33] <ScurveyFrog> where BST is the name of the file that's causing the core dump
[07:33] <fetale> cwillu: allright, that reinstalled it...
[07:34] <meso> okay .... I'm cooking along creating partitions at the moment
[07:34] <mnepton> ajmitch: you gotta wonder what brain puts the ideas of "#ubuntu/Freenode" and "more channel input" together and comes up with "good idea!" ;)
[07:34] <chuckyp> ScurveyFrog, is that english?
[07:35] <ScurveyFrog> chuckyp: is what english?
[07:35] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: what is this file "BST?"
[07:35] <mnepton> smells like a timezone file
[07:35] <chuckyp> ScurveyFrog, nm
[07:36] <cwillu> fetale: any luck?
[07:36] <casey420> !google blah
[07:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about google blah - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:36] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: it's an executable that I compiled to implement a binary search tree
[07:36] <ajmitch> mnepton: one does wonder..
[07:36] <fetale> cwillu: It still seems to give the error
[07:36] <ScurveyFrog> chuckyp: nm?
[07:36] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: and when you actually execute it ... ?
[07:37] <fetale> cwillu: maybe I should just take the hint and upgrade to edgy
[07:37] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: it seg faults and core dumps
[07:37] <chuckyp> ScurveyFrog, nm = nevermind
[07:37] <kingrayray> hey, anybody happen to know the default port for vncserver offhand?
[07:37] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: so I want to use gdb to debug it
[07:37] <cwillu> kingrayray: 5900
[07:37] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: well, the executable itself is not a .core logfile of the dump.
[07:37] <kingrayray> hmm, i forwarded that port and its not connecting correctly
[07:38] <kingrayray> thanks, i'll play around with my router some more
[07:38] <noiesmo> 5800 is the java port number ScurveyFrog for web browser access
[07:38] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: sudo updatedb && locate .core
[07:38] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: it put the core file in the folder that I executed from, and it is called "core"
[07:39] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: run gdb against that file
[07:39] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: just that file?: gdb core?
[07:40] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: gdb requires an executable
[07:40] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: sure, unless you need to add arguments
[07:40] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: no, no arguments
[07:40] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: this is the web page I was looking at, where I got the idea: http://www.cprogramming.com/debugging/segfaults.html
[07:40] <mnepton> gdb -c ./core
[07:40] <cwillu> fetale: well, if you're willing to try, I suspect that just remaking the folder by hand might fix it
[07:41] <fetale> cwillu: I'm up for that, sure!
[07:41] <cwillu> worst case, we delete the folder after if it doesn't work
[07:41] <fetale> np
[07:41] <cwillu> fetale: k, just give me ten minutes, just finishing up a tourny
[07:41] <fetale> cwillu: thanks a bunch!
[07:42] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: I ran gdp -c ./core and it still said "./core is not a core dump: File format not recognized"
[07:42] <OmniD> Torrent program reccomendations!
[07:42] <mnepton> OmniD: desktop or server based?
[07:42] <OmniD> desktop
[07:42] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: er, gdb - not gdp
[07:43] <OmniD> I wish there is one more like bitcomet
[07:43] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: then i suggest that you have a look around and find the real .core file ;)
[07:43] <mnepton> OmniD: BitComet is really, really pooorly written
[07:43] <OmniD> Then as far as functionality
[07:43] <hump> eh?
[07:43] <OmniD> Also I think BitTornado and BitTorrent are really really poorly written
[07:44] <OmniD> They both are memory hogs
[07:44] <mnepton> OmniD: but at least they follow the RFC
[07:44] <bur[n] er> bitcomet doesn't work in linux right?  I like transmission-gtk
[07:44] <bur[n] er> utorrent via wine is primo too ;)
[07:44] <OmniD> Transmission... is it in the repos?
[07:44] <mnepton> OmniD: i use TorrentFlux, but that requires a web server
[07:44] <mnepton> OmniD: a lot of people like Azureus. it's a good client.
[07:44] <bur[n] er> azureus == mem hog
[07:45] <OmniD> Is that available via the repos?
[07:45] <OmniD> o
[07:45] <mnepton> OmniD: it is
[07:45] <bur[n] er> even utorrent through wine is faster
[07:45] <bur[n] er> az is sooooooooooo slow
[07:45] <mnepton> bur[n] er: but you can't compare the feature set
[07:45] <OmniD> :/ is it really hard to code a decent torrent program
[07:45] <bur[n] er> utorrent is almost as great as azureus for my needs
[07:45] <Wiseguy> hey guys, how would i connect to my ubuntu box from my XP box and get an X session? is it called X forwarding?
[07:45] <BHSPitLappy> azureus -> Java -> memory hog
[07:45] <bur[n] er> Wiseguy: i use "xming" and "putty" in windows
[07:45] <BHSPitLappy> it's fine for me, though
[07:45] <OmniD> oh god
[07:45] <mnepton> bur[n] er: it's like saying "that Yugo gets much better gas mileage than that M-1A Abrams tank. the Yugo is clearly superior."
[07:46] <OmniD> no java programmed ones thank you for telling me
[07:46] <Wiseguy> bur[n] er, im looking for an actual x session rather than a terminal..
[07:46] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: I ran 'sudo updatedb && locate .core' and it didn't find a core file
[07:46] <bur[n] er> Wiseguy: you use Putty and X-forwarding checkbox within putty... then at a term... type "gaim" and you'll see it appear if you have xming running in windows
[07:47] <OmniD> So basically it comes down to a few torrent programs all with their share of flaws people tolerate
[07:47] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: then you need to figure out where the .core files are getting placed when your app segfaults.
[07:47] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: to get the core file to appear in the first place, I had to run 'ulimit -c unlimited', so I'm pretty confident that is the core file
[07:47] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: you may find that the IRC channel(s), web forums, mailing lists (or whatever) for that piece of code are of more help.
[07:47] <Wiseguy> bur[n] er, id rather have something thats an actual desktop, if thats possible
[07:47] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: and it reappears if I delete it and run my program again
[07:47] <cassiopeia> hi
[07:47] <bur[n] er> http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/07/25/transmission-a-lightweight-gtk-bittorrent-client/  <--Transmission
[07:48] <mnepton> ScurveyFrog: then it is not in a format gdb expects
[07:48] <Skymountaineer> crimsun: upgraded to the new kernal
[07:48] <ScurveyFrog> mnepton: okay
[07:48] <bur[n] er> Wiseguy: check out VNC?
[07:48] <cwillu> fetale: 2 more to knock out
[07:49] <hump> dude
[07:49] <cwillu> fetale: one more :)
[07:49] <hump> is there anyway to get the essentials..
[07:49] <hump> for ubuntu
[07:49] <fetale> cwillu: that's faster than 10 minutes
[07:49] <hump> like apt-get install INEEDALLTHIS
[07:49] <tarelerulz> anyone try to share fat32 exteral usb drive with samba
[07:49] <bur[n] er> hump: easyubuntu?
[07:49] <cwillu> fetale: what can I say, I'm just that good :)
[07:49] <hump> like C compilers..
[07:49] <hump> no..
[07:49] <mnepton> hump: yes, but you don;t want to use them
[07:49] <bur[n] er> hump: sudo apt-get install build-essential :)
[07:49] <hump> k
[07:49] <atroWork> I had a couple samba shares mounted under /media/somename, after a restart those directories are inaccessible, mount -a says can't resolve mount point, and ls -l on the directory shows the directory names in red on black background with question marks for all the information fields. What happened to the directories and how can I remove them (can't rmdir or chmod them)?
[07:49] <crimsun> Skymountaineer: on the phone ; I'll ping when I'm free
[07:50] <Skymountaineer> ok
[07:50] <mnepton> hump: sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[07:50] <mnepton> gah
[07:50] <hump> wait
[07:50] <hump> singular or pluarl?
[07:50] <mnepton> plural
[07:50] <atroWork> singular
[07:50] <hump> ...
[07:50] <mnepton> hfdsajkga
[07:50] <atroWork> build-essential
[07:50] <hump> ?!?!?!
[07:50] <hump> are you sure
[07:50] <atroWork> positive
[07:51] <hump> k
[07:51] <OmniD> bur[n] er, that page does not exist
[07:53] <bur[n] er> OmniD: you're a liar ;)
[07:53] <OmniD> It really doesn't
[07:53] <OmniD> getting a 404
[07:53] <meso> mnepton... my alternate cd is in the middle of installing packages,  but the screen just went blank
[07:53] <^Down> Anyone know where I can download stdio.h?
[07:53] <bur[n] er> http://www.google.com/search?q=transmission+gtk&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a
[07:53] <meso> this happened before with this approach
[07:53] <bur[n] er> ^Down: sudo apt-get install build-essential ???
[07:53] <ransackman> hey, does anybody know why do i get a white screen with beryl
[07:54] <cwillu> fetale: almost done
[07:54] <hump> can i paste four lines
[07:54] <meso> I think it is still runnung, awaiting an answer to a prompt
[07:54] <meso> ideas?
[07:54] <atroWork> hump, pastebin.ca
[07:54] <^Down> I get an error when I do that, bur[n] er
[07:54] <hump> for four lines
[07:54] <hump> ?!
[07:54] <atroWork> yes
[07:54] <mnepton> meso: you have an Intel video chipset, don't you?
[07:54] <fetale> cwillu: sweet
[07:54] <meso> probably
[07:55] <mnepton> meso: known bug in xresprobe
[07:55] <meso> any way I can continue?
[07:55] <xzk> Hey guys I know this is totally unrelated to Ubuntu help - but where can I find help with C++
[07:55] <hump> http://pastebin.ca/195970 <-- got that error while apt-get install build-essential was running
[07:55] <mnepton> meso: it *is* still installing, you're just not getting any screen output. :/
[07:55] <hump> xzk: #C++, google.com?
[07:55] <meso> I think it is now awaiting a response to an invisible prompt
[07:55] <xzk> hump: #C++ on this server ?
[07:56] <hump> yes
[07:56] <xzk> sweet, thnx
[07:56] <mnepton> meso: hit return until the screen comes back. :/
[07:56] <^Down> Bur[n] er: http://pastebin.ca/195972
[07:56] <atroWork> hump, try updating and dist-upgrading, then try again?
[07:56] <hump> atroWork, what?
[07:56] <link_36p> Will the fglrx drivers in the ubuntu repos ever be updated?
[07:56] <hump> apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:56] <hump> ?
[07:56] <meso> well, things started to happen - screen isn't back but lights are flashing and the cd is spinning
[07:56] <atroWork> hump, after an update
[07:56] <hump> is there a command?
[07:56] <cwillu> fetale: damn, cracked my kings
[07:57] <cwillu> oh well
[07:57] <hump> update is the command?
[07:57] <atroWork> sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[07:57] <bur[n] er> ^Down: using dapper right?  do a "sudo apt-get update" ?
[07:57] <mnepton> meso: yeah, i'm trying to find where a co-worker documented the workaround for the xresprobe problem.
[07:57] <cwillu> fetale: read.cwillu.com/Files has the two files
[07:57] <meso> thanks!
[07:57] <hump> okay..sorry, i'm a nob
[07:57] <cwillu> fetale: checked the contents already, doesn't look like there's anything that's particular to my system really
[07:57] <Byan> hey how do I change my IP address to dhcp temperarly?
[07:57] <bur[n] er> atroWork: you know the difference between "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" and "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" ??
[07:57] <^Down> I'm using breezy
[07:57] <fetale> cwillu: that's excellent, I'll wget them right now..
[07:57] <atroWork> Byan, System -> administration -> networking
[07:58] <Byan> atroWork: from the terminal
[07:58] <atroWork> Byan, ifconfig is the command to configure network interfaces, man page should have what you're looking for
[07:58] <Byan> =/
[07:58] <cwillu> fetale: 'sudo mkdir /var/lib/locales' followed by 'sudo mkdir /var/lib/locales/supported.d'
[07:59] <nocti> how do i upgrade everything, plus security fixes. thanks
[07:59] <bur[n] er> ^Down: get dapper :P
[08:00] <hump> atroWork, apt-get update worked..then apt-get dist-upgrade gave me the same errors
[08:00] <cwillu> copy the two files into supported.d (will have to sudo cp them), make sure they're owned by root (chown root:root local en)
[08:00] <elaff> hi, i just made a "sudo apt-get install mplayer", it downloaded some stuff. but where do i find my mplayer? i cant see it on my startmenu
[08:00] <atroWork> nocti, as a user with admin privileges, click the orange icon next to the clock. It's the update manager
[08:00] <bur[n] er> anyone know hte update-manager switch to give ^Down to get to dapper?
[08:00] <mnepton> meso: you using Dapper or Edgy?
[08:00] <jwhitlark> Byan, you should also look into /etc/network/interface and ifdown/ifup
[08:00] <Byan> if someone could tell me how do this real quick, it'd be helpful.. seeing as I am trying to do this on an XBOX and is very difficult to do things
[08:00] <nocti> atroWork: i need commandline. im on fluxbox. thanks
[08:00] <atroWork> bur[n] er, from edgy?
[08:00] <meso> It has now rebooted
[08:00] <bur[n] er> atroWork: from breezy
[08:01] <meso> unfortunately, I suspect that while I couldn't see the screen, it put the bootloader on the primary drive
[08:01] <snoop> hey I deleted the windows partition but it still shows on the grub list, how can I delete it from the list?
[08:01] <bur[n] er> ^Down: atroWork: it might be "sudo update-manager -c" but i forget
[08:01] <fetale> cwillu: what goes where?
[08:01] <mnepton> Byan: you'll need to bring the interface down, edit its config in /etc/network/interfaces to use DHCP, and then bring it back up
[08:01] <snoop> hey I deleted the windows partition but it still shows on the grub list, how can I delete it from the list?
[08:01] <cwillu> fetale: create the folder /var/lib/locales/supported.d
[08:01] <DanielJones> hi there. i have a problem installing vmware under ubuntu: when i launch the installer .pl script it says i had it allready installed (had the vm version from synaptic before but removed it) how can i make sure my system knows that there is no vmware left on it?
[08:01] <fetale> cwillu: cool
[08:01] <atroWork> bur[n] er, I think that's right, the -d switch will allow you to upgrade to beta releases too (like edgy)
[08:01] <bur[n] er> snoop: by editing /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:01] <nocti> snoop: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:01] <mnepton> snoop: sudo nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:01] <Byan> mnepton: will that work on a live cd?
[08:02] <cwillu> fetale: and they need to be read only for everyone (group and other)
[08:02] <hump> HELP
[08:02] <cwillu> well, not need, but you know :p
[08:02] <mnepton> Byan: it should.
[08:02] <blujay> I've filed a bug regarding hibernate/resume support in Edgy, but after over a week, it still hasn't been noticed by the devs.  Is there anything I can do to help draw attention to it so it can be fixed in the Edgy release?
[08:02] <hump> http://pastebin.ca/195970 < --- i do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and get that
[08:02] <atroWork> DanielJones, find the packages in synaptic and remove them. If it's finding configuration files and not liking that, do a complete removal
[08:02] <mnepton> Byan: but the Live CD uses DHCP rather than static IPs anyway
[08:02] <bur[n] er> blujay: bug #?
[08:02] <cwillu> blujay: are you sure there isn't another report of the same behaviour already?
[08:02] <Byan> mnepton: I'm on an XBOX, it's not the standard live CD
[08:02] <DanielJones> atroWork: i made a complete removal with synaptic before.
[08:03] <mnepton> blujay: what makes you think it hasn't been seen?
[08:03] <blujay> bur[n] er: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/63286
[08:03] <blujay> mnepton: it hasn't been commented on, or assigned an importance
[08:03] <cwillu> bluejay, also, at this point, the release is probably in freeze, which means only grevious stuff is likely to get fixed here on in (the chances of the fix breaking something else and slipping the deadline is too great)
[08:03] <mnepton> blujay: we're kinda busy. ;)
[08:03] <blujay> cwillu: I haven't been able to find one...I could have missed one, but I haven't found one
[08:03] <hump> cwillu, will you please help me?
[08:03] <elaff> hi, i just made a "sudo apt-get install mplayer", it downloaded some stuff. but where do i find my mplayer? i cant see it on my startmenu
[08:03] <cwillu> hump, give me a sec
[08:03] <mnepton> blujay: i wouldn't assume that it's unnoticed.
[08:03] <Byan> yeah, this fails, I can't read this text...
[08:03] <blujay> cwillu: well I think it is important, because it can cause kernel upgrades to fail, which might lead to the machine being unbootable
[08:04] <blujay> mnepton: but if a dev looks at it, won't they assign it an importance?
[08:04] <DanielJones> atroWork: or should i reinstall?
[08:04] <KEA0463> hello
[08:04] <mnepton> blujay: not necessarily right away. and it may be that the problem is with the upstream package.
[08:04] <cwillu> fetale: how goes the battle?
[08:05] <KEA0463> whats fluxbox used for
[08:05] <blujay> mnepton: I see...well, it's on acpi-support and hibernate.sh, which I didn't think was an upstream product, but I don't know for sure
[08:05] <fetale> it's coming along, just copying right now..
[08:05] <cwillu> k
[08:05] <atroWork> if you reinstall the package you can use dpkg -L packagename to find out where it puts all the files and manually remove any ones that a complete removal doesn't get. I don't know what it would be leaving behind, but something for the vmware installer to find.
[08:05] <bur[n] er> KEA0463: same thing xfce, gnome, and kde are used for
[08:05] <mnepton> blujay: ACPI is the devil :/
[08:05] <atroWork> DanielJones, I think vmware comes with an uninstaller script, can you find and run that?
[08:05] <cwillu> hump: what were you doing?
[08:05] <blujay> mnepton: I would just hate to see this bug released in Edgy, especially if it could mean a post-Edgy upgrade caused the machine to not reboot properly
[08:05] <DanielJones> atroWork: i will try this
[08:05] <KEA0463> how do i get the cool system info on my screen in fluxbox
[08:06] <hump> cwillu: trying to get the stuff i need to make my system work properly
[08:06] <hump> can't compile anything..no compiler
[08:06] <hump> http://pastebin.ca/195970 < --- i do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and get that
[08:06] <hump> anytime i try to apt-get something, i get that error
[08:06] <cwillu> blujay: doesn't mean it can't get fixed soon after release in an update though
[08:06] <cwillu> hump: how do you mean?
[08:06] <hump> ...
[08:06] <blujay> cwillu: true.  Well, thanks for your help, also to mnepton, and bur[n] er
[08:06] <mnepton> blujay: i'll point it out to someone today
[08:06] <blujay> mnepton: thanks
[08:06] <fetale> cwillu: I've copied them, should I restart something at this point?
[08:07] <hump> i mean i get a friggin error when i try to apt-get install stuff
[08:07] <KEA0463> how do i get the cool system info on my screen in fluxbox
[08:07] <cwillu> fetale: try hitting locale in the terminal again I guess
[08:07] <chronoAZ> how can i remove sendmail and all its configuration files and start again with default settings?
[08:07] <hump> you all told me to use sudo apt-get update.. then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade... well the first one worked, then i got that error
[08:07] <bur[n] er> KEA0463: it's unrelated to fluxbox... i forget the name of it though :\
[08:07] <KEA0463> if you can remember tell me ill search for it
[08:08] <fetale> cwillu: should I copy into the regular locales folder?
[08:08] <cwillu> hump: I understand you're frustrated, but I really do need more information:  how did you install ubuntu, which ubuntu are you installing, what are yuo instaling that the default didn't install, etc
[08:08] <cwillu> fetale: no, the /var/lib/locales/supported.d/ directory you created
[08:08] <fetale> oh, right
[08:08] <fetale> thanks
[08:08] <fetale> I dunno
[08:08] <DanielJones> AtroWork: uninstall.pl gives me this: This program previously created the file /dev/vmnet6, and was about to remove
[08:08] <DanielJones> it.  Somebody else apparently did it already.
[08:08] <KEA0463> i know how to delete files using the command line now!!!
[08:08] <bur[n] er> KEA0463: conky
[08:09] <DanielJones> atroWork: like 10 times
[08:09] <KEA0463> so i do apt get install conky
[08:09] <hump> cwillu: heh... how did i install ubuntu? i downloaded the Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS iso for the amd...
[08:09] <hump> burned it to a disc..
[08:09] <hump> booted it, installed it
[08:09] <DanielJones> hump: what's the point?
[08:10] <fetale> cwillu: it's still giving the error, but I'll have to look at it tomorrow (it's 2AM here)
[08:10] <chronoAZ> how can i remove sendmail and all its configuration files and start again with default settings?
[08:10] <Jbirk> what is the xgl channel again?
[08:10] <KurtKraut> hump, if you're not an experienced user, the amd64 should not be as easy to work with than a normal i386
[08:10] <Jbirk> Gaim Crashed
[08:10] <fetale> cwillu:thanks alot for your help, though
[08:10] <cwillu> fetale: k, sorry I couldn't help
[08:10] <DanielJones> #ubuntu-xgl
[08:10] <Madpilot> Jbirk, #ubuntu-xgl
[08:10] <Jbirk> My punishment for using Widnows
[08:10] <Jbirk> thanks
[08:10] <hump> KurtKraut: eh?
[08:10] <DanielJones> you can also try #xgl
[08:10] <Jbirk> They are good people over there
[08:10] <DanielJones> and #beryl
[08:10] <Jbirk> I got xgl working great thanks to them
[08:10] <KurtKraut> hump, I do recommend if this is your first step in Linux to use a i386 instead.
[08:10] <bur[n] er> KEA0463: did it work out for you?
[08:10] <Jbirk> My only problem is the ubuntu wiki is messed up
[08:10] <cwillu> hump: assume I know nothing about anything you've said previous to saying 'cwillu, can you help me', and we'll probably be on the same page :)
[08:10] <Jbirk> it says to install compiz
[08:10] <KEA0463> i cant beleive it ive had no system crashes since i installed ubuntu
[08:10] <Jbirk> if you install beryl, you are all set
[08:11] <KEA0463> this is the best linux i tried
[08:11] <Jbirk> Basically, you get xgl working
[08:11] <ToHellWithGA> is there a way to move logical partitions?
[08:11] <bur[n] er> Jbirk: you can edit the ubuntu wiki
[08:11] <hump> cwillu, what else do you need to know?
[08:11] <DanielJones> atroWork: you still there?
[08:11] <bur[n] er> KEA0463: welcome ;)
[08:11] <Skymountaineer> crimsun thanks for your help but i need to get to  bed....
[08:11] <Jbirk> I may edit it soon, but I will have 3 people at work read and re-read my contribution and correct it and add thought
[08:11] <cwillu> how you got to the point that you needed to use apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:11] <chronoAZ> how can i remove sendmail and all its configuration files and start again with default settings?
[08:11] <Jbirk> I want it to be profound before I update it
[08:11] <Byan> how big of a swap partition is good for an XBOX?
[08:12] <ToHellWithGA> it looks as if i can extend the length of a logical partition but i cannot move its starting point
[08:12] <hump> cwillu, i tried to use synaptic to install xchat..
[08:12] <Byan> it's got like 64mb ram
[08:12] <hump> got those errors
[08:12] <Jbirk> KEA0463, wait until you install teh restricted codecs
[08:12] <KurtKraut> Byan, to run what ?
[08:12] <gmasters> Using qemu virtual machine. Running win98 on the VM. Can d/l programs and install from the net, but can't see folders shared from my home dir. The VM and the real machine have different host names. Unfortunately, this old P3-1G machine only supports 256M of real RAM so I'm stuck w/win98. Also tried telling the Samba share that the real machine is the WINS server to no avail. Any ideas to get the real machine to show in the V
[08:12] <Byan> KurtKraut: uh, IDK
[08:12] <Jbirk> Once you install the codecs, you can play any movie
[08:12] <HitmanX> apt-get or aptitude?
[08:12] <Jbirk> Also, KEA0463, please install the Graphical Acceleration
[08:12] <KEA0463> jbirk: thanks for the warning
[08:12] <Byan> KurtKraut: it's suppost to be a server.. for random things
[08:12] <Jbirk> It will make your life better
[08:13] <elaff> hi, i just made a "sudo apt-get install mplayer", it downloaded some stuff. but where do i find my mplayer? i cant see it on my startmenu
[08:13] <cwillu> hump: and what happened?
[08:13] <Jbirk> do you have an Nvidia card, KEA0463?
[08:13] <hump> i..got..those..errors
[08:13] <KEA0463> whats the graphical acceleration
[08:13] <hump> http://pastebin.ca/195970
[08:13] <KurtKraut> Byan, I would say 500mb, but I'm not experienced in non-PC platforms
[08:13] <chronoAZ> how can i remove sendmail and all its configuration files and start again with default settings?
[08:13] <blujay> elaff: mplayer is a shell app, you want something like KPlayer or KMPlayer for a GUI
[08:13] <Jbirk> Basically, it makes the screen savers work
[08:13] <Byan> KurtKraut: it is a PC platform
[08:13] <KEA0463> nope i got ati
[08:13] <Jbirk> It makes the music players supply art work
[08:13] <Byan> so, how much for a 64MB PC...
[08:13] <KurtKraut> Byan, you just said it is a xbox
[08:13] <Jbirk> widnows move seamlessly
[08:14] <Jbirk> you can play games
[08:14] <Byan> KurtKraut: XBOX is a PC
[08:14] <Jbirk> Overall, it turns on 3D Acceleration
[08:14] <Byan> has a celeron processor and everything
[08:14] <Jbirk> it also fixes countless bugs
[08:14] <Jbirk> I.e. I could not play 2 movies at the same time
[08:14] <Byan> so, w/e you'd use for a 64mb PC
[08:14] <Tokenbad> I get this error when starting quake 4 in ubuntu...dealing with OSS sound..anyone help figure it out:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26140/
[08:14] <Jbirk> My system would crash
[08:14] <cwillu> hump: can you pastebin the output of 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade', as well as the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list?
[08:14] <KurtKraut> Byan, I would keep at least the 500mb
[08:14] <Jbirk> After turning on 3D acceleration, things were good
[08:15] <hump> cwillu, yes
[08:15] <cwillu> thx
[08:15] <chronoAZ> how can i remove sendmail and all its configuration files and start again with default settings?
[08:15] <DanielJones> anybody knows something on my vmware install issue?
[08:15] <KEA0463> i am installing kony right now
[08:16] <KEA0463> konky*
[08:16] <KurtKraut> chronoAZ, sudo aptitude purge packagename and then install it again
[08:16] <chronoAZ> KurtKraut, ok thanks alot
[08:16] <cwillu> for some reason, life holds no appeal.  That is why I'm spending it on irc troubleshooting :)
[08:16] <nocti> KEA0463: conky?
[08:16] <chronoAZ> KurtKraut, and that removes config files also?
[08:16] <cwillu> perhaps I should get back to work though :p
[08:17] <Tokenbad> I get no sound in quake 4...and when check errors...its something to do with OSS...anyone maybe know whats wrong?
[08:17] <KurtKraut> chronoAZ, yes, this is the difference between 'remove' and 'purge'. 'purge' removes the config files
[08:17] <KEA0463> so many questions....so little time
[08:18] <chronoAZ> KurtKraut, ok good
[08:19] <KEA0463> anyone have a link for me to learn about the command line beginer through advanced?

[08:26] <nocti> ok back to work
[08:26] <Madpilot> Folks, random absurdity belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic, please....
[08:26] <KEA0463> k
[08:26] <nocti> KEA0463: you on kde?
[08:26] <KEA0463> ubuntu
[08:26] <KEA0463> but i installed kde products
[08:26] <nocti> KEA0463: what de/wm?
[08:26] <KEA0463> dapper
[08:27] <nocti> ah
[08:27] <keegan_> Have you guys heard of Exaile! ?
[08:27] <Tokenbad> I get no sound in quake 4...and when check errors...its something to do with OSS...anyone maybe know whats wrong?
[08:27] <meso> mnewton - still there?
[08:27] <nocti> keegan_: heard it from you. just now.
[08:27] <mnepton> meso: nope!
[08:27] <meso> or perhaps someone else can help me with a grub issue
[08:27] <meso> good
[08:27] <meso> to hear from you :-)
[08:27] <keegan_> Its like the GTK Amarok
[08:27] <keegan_> Its so awesome
[08:28] <mnepton> :)
[08:28] <meso> I am now in the situation where grub used the wrong drive
[08:28] <meso> I am currently in a root shell in rescue mode
[08:28] <nocti> keegan_: is it available on the repos?
[08:28] <dabaR> Tokenbad: have you tried killing esd before running quake?
[08:28] <keegan_> www.getdeb.net
[08:28] <meso> how can I have grub put the right stuff on the external drive?
[08:28] <keegan_> you can get it from there
[08:28] <mnepton> meso: there are lots of tutorials on moving grub around and reconfiguring it. it's not tough.
[08:28] <meso> okay
[08:28] <keegan_> They also have a bad ass burning program too called  Brasero
[08:28] <meso> I'll google, I guess
[08:28] <cwillu> hump: anybody tell you to 'dpkg-reconfigure -a' yet?
[08:28] <keegan_> aka Bonfire
[08:28] <mnepton> keegan_: does GNOME really need anothe media player?
[08:29] <hump> cwillu: no sir
[08:29] <hump> should i?
[08:29] <cwillu> hump: it'll take a while, but probably worth a shot
[08:29] <hump> okay
[08:29] <keegan_> Once Gnome gets a player like Amarok all those other runs can eat shit and die
[08:29] <Tokenbad> dabaR, yes
[08:29] <cwillu> mnepton: until winamp is available, yes
[08:29] <dabaR> pretty icons in that bonfire
[08:29] <keegan_> Brasero is the shits and the icons rule too
[08:29] <Tokenbad> dabaR, this is the error it gives :  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26140/
[08:30] <mnepton> cwillu: there is NO way i would use a Winamp-like app for my mp3s. just simply too many of them for any app except a "music library" app like Rhythmbox, Banshee, or Amarok to handle.
[08:30] <dabaR> Tokenbad: no idea.
[08:30] <cwillu> mnepton: I've got thousands;  there's a wonder elegance in hitting 'j', typing a piece of the metadata, and getting exactly the song I'm looking for :)
[08:31] <KEA0463> ok i got conky running its pretty cool
[08:31] <chronoAZ> waht do i need to be able to send an email using the mail command?
[08:31] <mnepton> cwillu: 30,000?
[08:31] <Madpilot> keegan_, language, please...
[08:31] <keegan_> Whats up with Madpilot being a Nazi?
[08:32] <dabaR> keegan_: just follow the rules.
[08:32] <hump> What'd he do?
[08:32] <mnepton> keegan_: if you take off your "i swear on the internet because it's what the cool kids do" costume Madpilot doesn't look like a Nazi. sweartagawd.
[08:32] <mnepton> ooops, too late.
[08:32] <Madpilot> mnepton, I goosestepped on him.
[08:33] <bimberi_> rofl Madpilot
[08:33] <KEA0463> moin
[08:33] <hump> deine mutter mag ziegen?
[08:34] <Tokenbad> I get no sound in quake 4...and when check errors...its something to do with OSS...anyone maybe know whats wrong?
[08:34] <cwillu> Tokenbad: is there anything else playing sound?
[08:34] <oskude> Tokenbad: have you looked in quake4 forums/list/chat ? or even google with that error message ?
[08:35] <KEA0463> any other cool stuff like conky i can install
[08:35] <nocti> hope my house has an ikea plugin, like apt-get install ikea-tables
[08:35] <mnepton> KEA0463: install Windows For Workgroups. it's *awesome*.
[08:35] <nocti> :(
[08:35] <dabaR> there is nothing as cool as conky.
[08:35] <nocti> KEA0463: search for screenshots on google, you seem to be looking for eyecandy stuff
[08:35] <KEA0463> whats all can conky do?
[08:35] <mnepton> nocti: you'll need to run sudo "apt-get update salary" first
[08:36] <dabaR> http://conky.sourceforge.net/
[08:36] <Tokenbad> cwillu, yes...everything else plays sound
[08:36] <cwillu> Tokenbad: no, is anything else playing at the same time?
[08:36] <paragonc> hello - i have a fresh copy of dapper drake on a box - and i installed ssh via apt-get - but when i try and login from other boxes - it fails to take my password
[08:36] <Tokenbad> oskude, I have been searching on google...to no avail yet
[08:36] <Tokenbad> cwillu, no
[08:36] <cwillu> flash animation, etc
[08:36] <nocti> mnepton: ah yes, no wonder the command fails..
[08:36] <Tokenbad> cwillu, I can boot...and nothing else at all on...doo the killall esd or not...and load it..and no sound
[08:37] <KEA0463> i am thinking about installing linux in my brain
[08:37] <cwillu> Tokenbad: soryr, don't know much about it, might wanna see if there's any linux forum for quake that might have better answers
[08:37] <mnepton> nocti: it also depends on big-car-for-hauling-ubuntu1 and sense-of-taste-that-doesn't-annoy-girlfriend-ubuntu.06
[08:37] <Tokenbad> cwillu, been trying
[08:38] <chronoAZ> how come i can send email locally but not externally :S!
[08:38] <nocti> mnepton: maybe i should just apt-get install cat and be happy.
[08:38] <mnepton> Tokenbad: my guess is that Q4 uses OSS or some other outdated sound architecture (not ALSA) that has not been configured on your machine
[08:38] <paragonc> i just checked the accounts on the localbox and the passwords work
[08:38] <KEA0463> do all the cool kids use ubuntu?
[08:39] <DanielJones> how to convert an mp3 to wav file?
[08:39] <mnepton> nocti: just be careful of core dumps in /dev/litterbox. apt-get remove those every so often.
[08:39] <nocti> KEA0463: cool kids use PS3
[08:39] <nocti> mnepton: lol :)
[08:39] <KurtKraut> DanielJones, do you want to burn an audio CD ?
[08:39] <KEA0463> whats PS3
[08:39] <DanielJones> nope
[08:39] <DanielJones> want to set it as startup sound
[08:39] <nocti> KEA0463: havent you heard? it's the new *thing* :)
[08:39] <KEA0463> no i havnt
[08:40] <DanielJones> KEA0463: cool kids have windows installed in their brain
[08:40] <KEA0463> i wanna be cool to
[08:40] <Tokenbad> mnepton, most sound problems come from alsa actually...for games like quake 4...so if you start the game with the command to set driver to oss it works...but this time...its no sound at all
[08:40] <mnepton> KEA0463: cool kids spell it "too"
[08:40] <mnepton> :P
[08:40] <DanielJones> KEA0463: i think you would like to go to #ubuntu-offtopic ?!?!
[08:40] <KEA0463> how do i get there
[08:41] <KEA0463> its along way and i am low on gas
[08:41] <KurtKraut> KEA0463, if you intend to just keep chating, type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:41] <DanielJones>    use /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:41] <KEA0463> ok ill try
[08:41] <mnepton> Tokenbad: you might need to look at the OSS architecture and check levels and output devices and what-not
[08:41] <Tokenbad> mnepton, that just went over my head
[08:41] <paragonc> anyone have any ideas why my ssh passwords aren't being accepted ?
[08:41] <DanielJones> so how can i simply convert an mp3 to wav file
[08:41] <DanielJones> ?
[08:42] <KEA0463> oh so this is for questions only?
[08:42] <mnepton> Tokenbad: ALSA has a console mixer and what not that allows muting and volume adjustment. OSS, does too, iirc. it may be that the OSS devices are not properly configured.
[08:42] <Ademan> can anyone tell me why xMule looks like piss? I thought it used wxWidgets drawing Gtk... doesn't look like Gtk to me, looks like the super basic X11 widgets you see in emacs
[08:42] <Madpilot> KEA0463, #ubuntu-offtopic is for chat; this channel is for tech support type questions
[08:42] <KEA0463> ok i see now
[08:42] <meso> mnepton - I think it's gonna work. Thanks. Now I'm goin to bed. ciao
[08:42] <mnepton> meso: via con Friots(tm)

[08:43] <KEA0463> ill only ask hard support questions from now on
[08:43] <mnepton> i love when my horrible typing makes a horrible joke even more horrible.

[08:44] <nocti> DanielJones: audacity
[08:45] <timalot> why no changelogs in the update manager?
[08:45] <timalot> i hate that
[08:45] <KurtKraut> timalot, in Edgy they have changelogs
[08:45] <KurtKraut> timalot, and I think they are translatable too
[08:45] <KurtKraut> timalot, cant say for sure
[08:46] <timalot> yeah ... i hate it when it wants to update a package but doesnt tell u what changes are in the new package
[08:46] <physicsnick> hey guys, i just set up svn on my computer
[08:46] <physicsnick> what's the best way to run svnserve on boot?
[08:46] <KurtKraut> timalot, this will be fixed when you upgrade to Edgy, that will be release in 26th
[08:47] <mnepton> physicsnick: update-rc.d
[08:47] <mnepton> KurtKraut: that's a nice nick you got there >:P
[08:47] <KurtKraut> mnepton, nice because of ... ?
[08:47] <indigoblu> is there a way to have a script run as root when a user logs in?
[08:47] <gta> Q: watz the comand to aplay a theme in xubuntu ?
[08:47] <timalot> KurtKraut: cool... just looking thru the 82 updates right now for my pc... seems more have changelogs than i remember... maybe i can start updating now
[08:48] <dbzdeath> how can i get hardware mixing working?
[08:48] <indigoblu> ie: i want a /etc/profile.d/mkhomedir.sh to take the place of pam_mkhomedir
[08:48] <KurtKraut> mnepton, oh.... hi pal :P
[08:48] <mnepton> hehehe
[08:48] <mnepton> grusse Gott
[08:48] <KurtKraut> mnepton, I'm not german
[08:49] <mnepton> then i am *deeply* offended by that nick! ;)
[08:49] <nocti> DanielJones: use lame (lame --decode metallica.mp3)
[08:49] <KurtKraut> mnepton, so just to make you more offendend... I'm not even european :P
[08:50] <mnepton> KurtKraut: well, neither am i. so ... we're both equally offensive. if you don't factor in my body odor.
[08:50] <KurtKraut> mnepton, thank god there is no 'DCC smell' yet
[08:50] <O2> hello
[08:50] <mnepton> KurtKraut: i wrote the RFC but everyone thought it meant "Request For Cologne"
[08:51] <KurtKraut> mnepton, hahaahhahahahaa
[08:52] <O2> hello
[08:52] <O2> who can tell me how to install chmsee?
[08:52] <timalot> !chmsee
[08:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chmsee - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:53] <O2> a software to open .chm ebook
[08:53] <boink> is it an ubuntu .deb?
[08:53] <O2> yes.
[08:54] <boink> sudo apt-get install chmsee
[08:54] <nocti> O2: gnochm is ok
[08:54] <O2> but no result
[08:54] <O2> ok, i try gnochm
[08:54] <oskude> O2: chm ebook ? its just a compressed html... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Compressed_HTML_Help
[08:55] <Flannel> O2: gnochm and xchm are both in universe
[08:55] <nocti> oskude: who cares what it is? you can't just unzip it and read it in a browser
[08:55] <O2> gnochm, not found
[08:55] <oskude> nocti: yeah!
[08:55] <Flannel> O2: you need universe enabled
[08:55] <nocti> O2: apt-get update
[08:55] <nocti> oh yea and that too
[08:58] <hump> how do you kill x?
[08:58] <hump> restart x?
[08:59] <timalot> ctrl-alt-backspace
[08:59] <oskude> hump: ctrl+alt+backspace or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[08:59] <hump> that restarts?
[08:59] <hump> not kill...
[08:59] <hump> restart
[08:59] <timalot> hump: that restarts
[08:59] <physicsnick> what's the tool for generating password hashes for use in passdb files?
[08:59] <oskude> hump: ctrl+alt+backspace or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[09:00] <hump> k
[09:00] <nocti> passdb?
[09:00] <thoreauputic> assuming gdm is running, ctrl-alt-bspce restarts it and X
[09:00] <cwillu> hump: how goes the battle?
[09:01] <hump> cwillu: eh...
[09:01] <hump> it just finished
[09:01] <cwillu> any errors?
[09:02] <timalot> physicsnick: if u mean unix passwords ,,, my system has a mkpasswd command that seems to do this
[09:02] <hump> cwillu: nope
[09:02] <cwillu> well, that's a good sign (the errors you paste-bined were during the configure of nautilus)
[09:03] <Tokenbad> Thanks to those that tried to help...it was my own stupidity that messed up sound in quake 4
[09:03] <cwillu> Tokenbad: what happened?
[09:03] <nocti> Tokenbad: speaker not turned on?
[09:03] <nocti> :)
[09:03] <Tokenbad> well...basicly...I was doing the install based on online stuff
[09:03] <Tokenbad> and one of them suggest to do set_driver oss
[09:03] <O2> how could I add source to sources.list by command?
[09:04] <cwillu> alsa or ess fixed it?
[09:04] <Tokenbad> well....I did all that...not even trying the alsa stuff...
[09:04] <nocti> O2: use synaptic, it's more user friendly
[09:04] <Tokenbad> so switched it to also and sound worked
[09:04] <Tokenbad> alsa even
[09:04] <cwillu> heh
[09:04] <O2> I tried apt-setup, but it says command not found!
[09:04] <Tokenbad> just want to slap my forhead now
[09:04] <kingrayray> physicsnick: hey, just thought i'd let you know i got it all working great
[09:04] <physicsnick> ah yeah? awesome
[09:04] <kingrayray> physicsnick: thanks for the help
[09:04] <physicsnick> np
[09:04] <kingrayray> yeah
[09:04] <kingrayray> freakin awesome
[09:05] <kingrayray> now when i'm on my friends' windows PC's i can just get to my desktop rather painlessly
[09:05] <kingrayray> :D
[09:05] <Tokenbad> cwillu, thanks for your help though...without it wouldn't have even thought about the alsa stuff
[09:05] <cwillu> heh, glad my random ramblings were of use :)
[09:06] <nocti> O2: http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic, sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:06] <physicsnick> kingrayray, if you haven't already, you should get a dyndns account and set up your machine with ddclient
[09:06] <physicsnick> so you don't have to mess around with ip addresses
[09:07] <kingrayray> physicsnick: yeah i've got one
[09:10] <psykoyiko> hiyo.
[09:10] <OSV> Hello!
[09:10] <psykoyiko> can anyone else successfully #include <asm/atomic.h> on edgy?
[09:11] <OSV> How can I configure my firewall?
[09:11] <OSV> I want to open 80-th port
[09:11] <OSV> for my apache
[09:11] <physicsnick> osv: kdesu firestarter
[09:12] <physicsnick> or gsudo firestarter
[09:12] <physicsnick> whatever the gnome command is
[09:12] <physicsnick> gksudo perhaps?
[09:12] <OSV> alex@laptop:~$ gksudo firestarter
[09:12] <OSV> sudo: firestarter: command not found
[09:12] <OSV> alex@laptop:~$
[09:13] <physicsnick> sudo apt-get install firestarter
[09:13] <Flannel> OSV: it's in universe
[09:13] <OSV> where is it, universe/
[09:13] <OSV> ?
[09:13] <physicsnick> yeah
[09:13] <Flannel> !universe
[09:13] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[09:14] <physicsnick> once you run it go to the policy tab, then choose Inbound traffic, then right click in the bottom half and click add, then choose HTTP from the dropdown box
[09:14] <thomas_> hi guys, just wondering how i get my remote to mute PCM instead of Master sound. Master only controls my front speakers, surround controls my rear speakers, but PCM controls everything.
[09:14] <physicsnick> then click apply
[09:14] <SurfnKid> i have a bugging thing in mind
[09:14] <OSV> ok, will try now, thanks
[09:15] <SurfnKid> i use the i8k mod for my fans, and have a command specificed in rc.local to start up the daemon on startup
[09:15] <physicsnick> !easysource
[09:15] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[09:16] <SurfnKid> however dont know why but it seems 2 daemons are running cuz theyre crossed when one sends a fan on command and then a fan off command, so i have this constant on-off
[09:16] <SurfnKid> is there anywhere else besides rc.local where commands could be?
[09:16] <SurfnKid> startup commands
[09:17] <physicsnick> startup as in boot, or login?
[09:17] <thomas_> surfnkid it isn't part in another startup script by chance is it?
[09:17] <SurfnKid> login
[09:17] <physicsnick> do you use gnome or kde?
[09:17] <thomas_> !sound
[09:17] <physicsnick> or xfce or fluxbox or something else?
[09:17] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[09:18] <SurfnKid> thomas_, it never was, it never has at all but a few months back this was happening, and nothing has been changed at all, i dont touch that config
[09:18] <SurfnKid> gnome
[09:18] <SurfnKid> dapper
[09:18] <SurfnKid> when 2 instanes of i8kmon are running
[09:18] <SurfnKid> one could tell it to turn on fan and another to stop
[09:19] <chronoAZ> anyone know why i get 'Deferred: Name server: gmail.com.: host name lookup failure' when i try to send an email?
[09:19] <SurfnKid> and every 2 second intervals fan is on and then off
[09:19] <SurfnKid> so to do that i never started i8kmon on a VT, instead I started it on rc.local and its worked fine sincce
[09:19] <SurfnKid> but now, its doing that on off thing again
[09:20] <SurfnKid> and i dont know where else to check for more instances
[09:20] <SurfnKid> ps -A | grep i8k* doesnt return anything
[09:20] <physicsnick> are you sure two instances are running? do ps -aux and see if you can find them
[09:22] <SurfnKid> dont see anything
[09:22] <SurfnKid> oh wait
[09:22] <SurfnKid> i grepped
[09:22] <SurfnKid> physicsnick, how odd
[09:22] <snoop> hey how can I open a rpm file?
[09:22] <SurfnKid> physicsnick, when i run ps -aux it doesnt come up
[09:22] <physicsnick> at all?
[09:23] <SurfnKid> but when i do ps -aux | grep i8k it does

[09:23] <timalot> SurfnKid: thats just coz i8k is in the grep command line
[09:24] <physicsnick> haha, lol
[09:24] <physicsnick> yeah, SurfnKid, it finds i8k in the ps command itself
[09:24] <SurfnKid> timalot, i dont undrerstand what u mean by that
[09:24] <SurfnKid> oh
[09:24] <SurfnKid> i see
[09:25] <SurfnKid> so does that mean it is running?
[09:25] <physicsnick> no, it means it's not running
[09:25] <thomas_> no it isn't.
[09:25] <snoop> you know if theres a limewire version for ubuntu?
[09:25] <thomas_> so basically, your fans aren't running because you havn't told them to yet.
[09:25] <thomas_> !frostwire
[09:25] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[09:25] <physicsnick> snoop, it's called frostwire
[09:25] <SurfnKid> explain to me how u fiured that out
[09:25] <snoop> frostwire?
[09:25] <timalot> SurfnKid: are u trying to kill a process?
[09:25] <physicsnick> SurfnKid, there are no processes running containing i8k
[09:25] <physicsnick> hence, it's not running
[09:26] <thomas_> snoop: its limewire only blue.
[09:26] <timalot> killall <process name>
[09:26] <SurfnKid> yeah
[09:26] <SurfnKid> im actually just trying to kill one instance, if there is
[09:26] <SurfnKid> but apparently there's none
[09:26] <thomas_> anybody know how i can make the mute button on my remote mute PCM instead of MASTER?
[09:27] <SurfnKid> physicsnick, did you know it wasnt running when i ran the ps aux
[09:27] <SurfnKid> or when i ran the grep command
[09:27] <physicsnick> it's not running either way
[09:27] <physicsnick> see, when you run ps, that's a program in itself that goes on the stack
[09:27] <SurfnKid> yea i saaw
[09:27] <SurfnKid> heh
[09:27] <physicsnick> so when you do ps -aux | grep i8k, that command there contains the pattern i8k
[09:27] <physicsnick> so grep finds it
[09:27] <SurfnKid> so thats what it does
[09:27] <SurfnKid> ok ok
[09:27] <physicsnick> it doesn't find anything else. so no i8k process is running.
[09:27] <SurfnKid> :)
[09:27] <cwillu> thomas_: how is the remote set up?  if it's a gnome shortcut (i.e., acts kinda like a keyboard button), it should be easy
[09:28] <SurfnKid> weird linux stuff
[09:28] <SurfnKid> ok let me restart this thing
[09:28] <SurfnKid> thanks brb
[09:28] <thomas_> cwillu: it is an ati remote wonder. It is configured with Gnome Keyboard Shortcuts. It has a kernel module.
[09:28] <cwillu> thomas_: not that I know the exact procecure, but there's almost certainly a way do mute pcm from the command line, and so it's just a matter of finding the commandline, and where to put it
[09:29] <thomas_> cwillu: my problem is, the mute button mutes master, which only controls my front speakers. i want it to mute PCM so it will mute everything.
[09:29] <timalot> amixer ?
[09:29] <cwillu> thomas_: one sec
[09:29] <thomas_> cwillu: so i can make the mute key execute a command that toggles PCM mute/unmute?
[09:29] <cwillu> thomas_: almost certainly
[09:30] <snoop> hmm I install frostwire but when I launch it doesnt open
[09:30] <thomas_> cwillu: the trick then would be to be able to unmute it with the same key.
[09:30] <thomas_> snoop there were no errors?
[09:30] <snoop> nope
[09:31] <snoop> its in Applications - Internet I tried to launch it from there, but it wont open
[09:32] <snoop> hmm I get errors now for forstwire
[09:32] <snoop> Java exec found in PATH. Verifying...
[09:32] <snoop> OOPS, you don't seem to have a valid JRE. FrostWire works best with Sun JRE available at http://www.java.com
[09:32] <snoop> OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /usr/lib/  hierarchy
[09:32] <snoop> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.4.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[09:33] <physicsnick> snoop, sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[09:33] <thomas_> amixer sset PCM unmute/mute
[09:33] <thomas_> how can i make those two commands in one toggle script?
[09:33] <snoop> E: Couldn't find package sun-java5-jre
[09:34] <thomas_> !java
[09:34] <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
[09:34] <thomas_> follow that.
[09:34] <physicsnick> snoop, add multiverse
[09:34] <thomas_> !multiverse
[09:34] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[09:34] <rahul> how to make nautilus windows transparent?
[09:34] <physicsnick> sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list , then add multiverse to the standard repository
[09:35] <thomas_> oh amixer has a toggle argument!
[09:35] <thomas_> YES!
[09:35] <physicsnick> :)
[09:35] <thomas_> :D problem solved.
[09:35] <cwillu> well, that was sure annoying
[09:35] <thomas_> amixer sset PCM toggle
[09:35] <thomas_> thanks cwillu :D
[09:36] <thomas_> you pointed me in the right direction
[09:36] <thomas_> that command works like a charm.
[09:36] <snoop> how to add multiverse?
[09:36] <physicsnick> snoop, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list , then add multiverse to the standard repository
[09:36] <rahul> how to make nautilus semi-transparent anybody
[09:36] <snoop> physicksnick I know where not sure what to put thought
[09:36] <thomas_> cwillu i found the mute/unmute commands, but i needed it to toggle, but amixer has a toggle argument
[09:36] <thomas_> :D
[09:36] <cwillu> thomas_: no problem :)  (sorry, rant was regarding gnome-panel dieing, and taking gaim out with it)
[09:36] <thomas_> snoop just save it
[09:36] <cw666> silly question, but i
[09:37] <cw666> grr
[09:37] <thomas_> the file already exists.
[09:37] <snoop> ?
[09:37] <cw666> someone please move that key :-)
[09:37] <snoop> I dont see any multiverse link though
[09:37] <timalot> wot
[09:37] <physicsnick> then sudo apt-get update
[09:37] <cw666> silly question, but i'm assuming people have libdvdcss2 on iamd64 working?
[09:37] <thomas_> snoop: the file you were told to open already exists. all you need to do is save it.
[09:37] <thomas_> !libdvdcss2
[09:37] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html  Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages

[09:49] <kandala> I did all of that described here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessNetworking. But no luck :-(
[09:50] <thomas_> excellent i used xbind keys to run amixer sset PCM toggle to mute PCM instead of MASTER.
[09:50] <thomas_> i'm going to write this down :)
[09:50] <physicsnick> yakumo, what errors do you get?
[09:50] <physicsnick> frostwire may be configure to use the absolute paths to files in your user's home folder, which wouldn't be accessible by other users
[09:50] <yakumo> none
[09:51] <yakumo> it looks like it did not activate

[10:05] <timalot> i am using linux-image-k7 no problems so far
[10:05] <ukAdamF> Wow. Lots of people. Just a quick one, to those in the know. :) I started off with Unbuntu (Dapper), then installed Kubuntu-desktop about a week later. All is well, but KDE continually 'forgets' my dns settings. I have to reset them every time. Remembers my IP address, netmask, gateway etc, just not dns. Any ideas? :x
[10:06] <oskude> jojoman02: i think there was a command to just to downlad packages (+debencies)...
[10:06] <ukAdamF> (oh, and if I switch to Gnome, all becomes well again)
[10:07] <oskude> !kubuntu > ukAdamF
[10:07] <jordan_> jojoman02, Use synaptic, select the packages you want, and then go to file -> generate download script.
[10:07] <timalot> ukAdamF: the resolver is configured with /etc/resolv.conf ....
[10:07] <ukAdamF> Sorry, I should have guessed I was in the wrong place.
[10:08] <jojoman02> jordan_: that is for offline use?
[10:08] <timalot> ukAdamF: are u talking about not being able to use internet names ? (eg DNS names do not resolve?)
[10:08] <ukAdamF> correct.
[10:09] <ukAdamF> Until I reset them in the system settings.
[10:09] <jordan_> jojoman02, Yes, it will create a bash script that you can run to download all of the .deb files ( it just uses wget )
[10:09] <ukAdamF> Changing /etc/resolv.conf makes no difference
[10:09] <OSV> I open port 80, firestarter doesn't block this port while scanning at http://scan.checkit.com (in events), but in this checker's report 80-th is blocked. why?
[10:09] <kandala> jordan_: I configured the eth1 interface with essid, WEP key, DHCP enabled......and when I do iwconfig, It displays all the things properly except for Access Point. It displays invalid against the Access Point. Will Installing fwcutter will solve this problem?
[10:09] <ukAdamF> It's a KDE problem I suspect, as Gnome works just dandy
[10:09] <dAndy> dAndy you say?
[10:09] <timalot> ukAdamF: can u use DNS names on the command line ie ... ping www.mit.edu?
[10:09] <OSV> http://81.95.238.244
[10:10] <ukAdamF> timalot : I have to admit I haven't tried yet. I suspect not, as /etc/resolv.conf is empty upon reboot. Something somewhere is overwriting it
[10:10] <timalot> ah ok....
[10:10] <ukAdamF> It's not major, just annoying.
[10:11] <jordan_> kandala, I honestly don't know, using fwcutter only grabs firmware for you, so it can't heart anything ( like ndis wrapper sometimes does ) so there is no risk in trying it :)
[10:11] <O2> haha
[10:11] <OSV> so?
[10:11] <timalot> ukAdamF: ive never used KDE ... so i dont know...
[10:12] <kandala> jordan_: Ok!
[10:12] <O2> I've update my ubuntu, and it became much more beautiful!
[10:12] <ukAdamF> I haven't for years, last attempt was SuSE 6 ;)
[10:12] <OSV>  I open port 80, firestarter doesn't block this port while scanning at http://scan.checkit.com (in events), but in this checker's report 80-th is blocked. why?
[10:12] <jojoman02> jordan_: thankz for all the help :)
[10:13] <jordan_> jojoman02, No problem.
[10:13] <episch> Hello everyone, are there any devs alive?
[10:13] <timalot> ukAdamF: u can set the DNS server in resolv.conf by adding the line nameserver <my namserver address>
[10:14] <timalot> nameserver = dns server
[10:14] <ukAdamF> Yep. KDE doesn't seem to pick it up (although the shell does), and when I reboot its immediately blanked again. It's as if it's half trying to dhcp the details, but I can't see where.
[10:14] <jordan_> Is there any good alarm clock for linux? I havn't been able to find one.
[10:14] <ukAdamF> And even if it was, my router would give the right answers.. so I'm baffled.
[10:15] <episch> ok. is there an ubuntu security channel that anyone knows about?
[10:15] <timalot> jordan_: for the gnome-panel there is "Timer Applet" ... its pretty good

[10:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about guide - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:22] <whyme> !installation
[10:22] <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
[10:22] <oskude> whyme: well, like you would install any other os, no ?
[10:25] <snoop> I installed java but IM having path problems can anyone help?
[10:26] <jordan_> Whyme, You can install Ubuntu on a ppc machine the same way you would on an x86 machine.
[10:26] <snoop> I installed java but IM having path problems can anyone help?
[10:26] <whyme> oskude, jordan_, it doesn't boot into the cd...
[10:26] <whyme> just directly into os9.2 :(
[10:26] <jordan_> whyme, Did you hold down c?
[10:26] <whyme> just the letter c?
[10:27] <jordan_> whyme, Yes, when you boot the machine.
[10:27] <snoop> have your bios to boot with your cd drive instead of HD whyme
[10:27] <whyme> I tried with Command-Option-Shift-Delete.... but I don't know if this is a "newworld" or "oldworld" powerbook
[10:27] <jordan_> snoop, He's on a mac, no BIOS ;)
[10:27] <snoop> oh ok
[10:27] <whyme> lol
[10:27] <snoop> eew mac
[10:27] <snoop> ;p
[10:28] <whyme> I've installed ubuntu on 100's of machines, but never a mac.
[10:28] <whyme> and it's an old one at that
[10:28] <floppyears> hi, is it possible to use scp and copy more than 1 directory at a time ?
[10:28] <whyme> snoop, that's why I'm trying to get ubuntu on it.
[10:28] <snoop> yeah
[10:28] <boink> must be an old mac
[10:28] <snoop> I have a macbook
[10:28] <boink> which Mac is it?
[10:28] <oskude> whyme: good luck! :) i remember partitioning on mac was weird... (but the openfirmware rocks!)
[10:29] <boink> on some of the older macs, openfirmware doesn't work or something like that
[10:29] <snoop> can anyone help me with frostwire and java?
[10:29] <jordan_> whyme, Do you plan on trying to dual boot OS 9?
[10:29] <oskude> snoop: how should people help, if they dont know the exact problem ? !ask
[10:30] <snoop> I did
[10:30] <whyme> jordan_, jesus tap dancing christ! are you crazy?
[10:30] <oskude> snoop: ok, sorry, didnt see it...
[10:30] <whyme> !language
[10:30] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:30] <whyme> :P
[10:30] <snoop> oskude want me to paste the errors I get when I start frostwire again?
[10:31] <snoop> Starting FrostWire...
[10:31] <snoop> Java exec found in PATH. Verifying...
[10:31] <snoop> OOPS, you don't seem to have a valid JRE. FrostWire works best with Sun JRE available at http://www.java.com
[10:31] <snoop> OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /usr/lib/  hierarchy
[10:31] <snoop> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.4.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[10:31] <snoop> ls: /usr/java/j*: No such file or directory
[10:31] <jordan_> whyme, Just checking because HFS+ resising still isn't great, as long as you are whiping the drive clean you should have no problems installing Ubuntu.
[10:31] <snoop> OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /usr/java/  hierarchy
[10:31] <snoop> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.4.x or newer from http://www.java.com
[10:31] <snoop> ls: /opt/j*: No such file or directory
[10:32] <snoop> oskdude :|
[10:32] <snoop> oskude*
[10:32] <whyme> :( no joy.
[10:32] <BHSPitLappy_> omgosh I'm so happy *tear*
[10:32] <whyme> why?
[10:32] <oskude> !pastebin > snoop
[10:32] <jordan_> whyme, What mac is it again?
[10:33] <BHSPitLappy_> finally internet on my desktop.
[10:33] <oskude> snoop: i dont know anything about java or frostwire, sorry...
[10:33] <BHSPitLappy_> in ubuntu.
[10:33] <BHSPitLappy_> for the first time since we moved.
[10:33] <whyme> jordan_, it's a powerbook G3, black
[10:33] <floppyears> anybody ?
[10:33] <floppyears> how can OI copy more than 1 directory at a time using scp ?
[10:33] <oskude> floppyears: scp -r / cp -r
[10:33] <whyme> BHSPitLappy, what connection/machines are you using is on
[10:34] <BHSPitLappy_> uh
[10:34] <oskude> floppyears: "man scp" is your friend (search with / and then the word to search > enter)
[10:34] <BHSPitLappy_> wireless? edgy belkin
[10:34] <whyme> BHSPitLappy, DONT LEAVE!!!
[10:34] <whyme> aww, dammit
[10:35] <floppyears> oskude: yes I know how to use anman and / to serch like in less
[10:35] <floppyears> but I thought that maybe someobdy here knew how to do it
[10:35] <whyme> I've been having trouble with my wifi on t'other lappy.
[10:35] <oskude> floppyears: then you should have searched for "recirsive" in "man scp" ?
[10:35] <jordan_> whyme, If it has a black keyboard, it's an old world mac, bronz, it's new world.
[10:35] <oskude> floppyears: *recursive
[10:35] <whyme> *recursive
[10:35] <whyme> lol
[10:35] <whyme> =D
[10:36] <floppyears> oskude: I'm readly using scp -r to copy directories
[10:36] <floppyears> but I want to copy more than one directory at a tiime
[10:36] <jordan_> whyme, And if it has firewire then it is definately new world.
[10:36] <ulinskie> does anybody know a flv to avi converter that is opensource?
[10:37] <oskude> floppyears: then copy the parent dir ?
[10:37] <Daverocks> ulinskie: mencoder
[10:37] <floppyears> oskude: but I don't want all of the folders from within th eparent dir, just a few of them
[10:37] <whyme> jordan_, it's not even got usb... it's from '98
[10:37] <floppyears> and the files are too big to copy thoe whole parent dir
[10:37] <whyme> (it says)
[10:37] <whyme> but it's got ethernet
[10:38] <whyme> and some other things too,
[10:38] <oskude> floppyears: hmm, have you tried "scp -r dir1/ dir2/ dir3/ user@10.20.30.11:" ? (dont have any ssh host here to test atm)
[10:38] <jordan_> whyme, Then it's old world :(
[10:38] <floppyears> yeah, I'm about to try that
[10:38] <whyme> !expletive
[10:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about expletive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:40] <jordan_> whyme, I believe it is still possible to isntall though, I have just never done it.
[10:40] <tabias> how do I change the date in korganizer zo that google calendar shows up at the correct time (currently taking the utc time from the google calendar) (so online 10h my time will be 10h utc time in korganizer)
[10:41] <jordan_> whyme, I remember something about bootX.
[10:42] <jordan_> whyme, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OldWorldMacs
[10:45] <javen> I can't install realplayer
[10:45] <javen> why?
[10:46] <kihai> Hi there! I have a prob with the loglevel of pam (At least I think it's due to pam). I'm using edubuntu with ltsp and want to log both the login times and the logout times of remotely connected users. Sadly only the login times are logged. I tried changing the loglevel of ssh_config, but it doesn't work. Logout times of locally logged in users are logged, but not those of remote users. What can I do to fix this? A log in /var/log/auth.log looks like this: Oct
[10:46] <crimsun> because you shouldn't.
[10:46] <crimsun> javen: ^^
[10:46] <boink> done an apt-cache search realplayer?
[10:47] <crimsun> javen: instead, enable the dapper-commercial repository and install the 'realplay' (note, not 'realplayer'!!) package.
[10:47] <therp> kihai: doesn't wtmp include logout times?
[10:47] <therp> kihai: but that's not what you've asked for..
[10:47] <boink> or you can download realplayer yourself from real.com
[10:47] <kihai> I'm not sure, but the logging takes place via ssh, so maybe this is the key problem...
[10:47] <boink> it's easy to install
[10:48] <swilliamson> morning all
[10:49] <kihai> therp: ...how can I access wtmp. When I cat it, it shows only gibberish...
[10:49] <therp> kiahi: last
[10:49] <jordan_> whyme, Are you still planning on installing Ubuntu?
[10:49] <swilliamson> have a couple quick questions, I installed ubuntu on my dell 820 laptop and all seems to work well, the only problem I have is when I connect my external 21" lcd the fonts on my LCD look washed out in bands, any ideas?
[10:49] <kihai> therp: Thought so... last only shows logins of local users...
[10:50] <therp> kihai: that's definately false for my system. wtmp logs all interactive sessions
[10:50] <kihai> therp: Are you using edubuntu's ltsp or ltsp 4.1/4.2?
[10:51] <therp> kihai: no
[10:51] <kihai> therp: Cause edubuntu uses ssh for connections
[10:51] <therp> kihai: my wtmp includes ssh sessions
[10:51] <therp> and that's regular behaviour
[10:51] <kihai> therp: Do you know where to configure that?
[10:52] <therp> imho sshd is responsible for that (maybe even pam as sshd uses the pam session directives). I have no idea, sorry.
[10:52] <whyme> jordan_, sry, was reading the guide
[10:53] <whyme> jordan_, yes I am... any other advice?
[10:53] <kihai> therp: I already tried to increase the loglevel of sshd, but I don't know where to change loglevels of pam, or changing any settings of pam at all...
[10:54] <therp> kihai: usually /etc/pam.d
[10:55] <mnepton> kihai: are you using a dedicated server, or a server running in a VM?
[10:56] <mnepton> (if it's a VM, be sure to check the config files in the VM as well as the host)
[10:57] <jordan_> whyme, No, just have fun, I have never had to install on an old world mac, and from the looks of that page I hope I never will ;)
[10:57] <whyme> lol
[10:57] <whyme> =D
[10:57] <whyme> thanks.
[10:57] <whyme> I'll let you know how I get along....
[10:57] <whyme> :S
[10:57] <mnepton> jordan_: you want NetBSD on an Old World Mac, trust me
[10:58] <mnepton> whyme: are you really considering Ubuntu on an Old Wortld Mac?
[10:58] <mnepton> -t
[10:58] <kihai> therp: Tried /etc/pam.d, but couldn't find any entry related to increasing loglevel or enabling logout logging.
[10:58] <kihai> mnepton: I'm using Edubuntu Server. It's not a dedicated one, though.
[10:59] <mnepton> kihai: so the Edubuntu instance is running in a VM?
[10:59] <mnepton> (the server instance)
[10:59] <whyme> mnepton, what I'm considering, is that I don't want os9 on it.
[10:59] <mnepton> whyme: NetBSD
[10:59] <whyme> ok
[10:59] <whyme> do it
[10:59] <whyme> it's the laptop to my left.
[11:00] <whyme> I'm off to get some coffee
[11:00] <kihai> mnepton: Nope. It's a regular, physical server and the clients are connected to it via LAN
[11:00] <jordan_> lol
[11:00] <whyme> mnepton, any ideas about how I should go about it?
[11:00] <mnepton> whyme: i work for Canonical. i probably know more about old Macs than anyone in the company besides Jim Troup. and i run NetBSD on my 68K. :)
[11:00] <whyme> lol
[11:00] <whyme> fancy lending a hand?
[11:00] <mnepton> Linux + old world = bag of hell
[11:01] <whyme> it *just* needs to work... somehow.
[11:01] <mnepton> just read the mac-ppc or m68k guides for NetBSD twice. three times if drunk.
[11:01] <whyme> lol
[11:02] <mnepton> they're pretty good, and will get you set up. but they're dense, and take a long time to digest.
[11:02] <whyme> ok, thanks. I'll heed your advice and let the boss man know that his attempts at keeping this machine alive for an entire decade might be foiled
[11:02] <LazyAngel> does anyone know how i can set the permission on a folder, so all files and subfolders will have the same permission? (and same group)
[11:02] <mnepton> uhhh ... yeah
[11:02] <Daverocks> LazyAngel: use chmod or chown with the -R option
[11:02] <mnepton> (that being said, my Quadra 605 is the NTP server for Canonical's Montreal office) ;)
[11:02] <jordan_> LazyAngel, Use -R.
[11:03] <whyme> llol
[11:03] <LazyAngel> sorry, i wasn't quite clear. I meant so they are changed when new files are added
[11:03] <mnepton> whyme: what model Mac?
[11:03] <whyme> it's a '98 powerbook g3
[11:03] <Hitch> use umask
[11:03] <Hitch> LazyAngel
[11:03] <mnepton> LazyAngel: +s
[11:03] <Hitch> LazyAngel use the umask
[11:04] <LazyAngel> Hitch: thanks
[11:04] <mnepton> whyme: what's the point of keeping it alive at all?
[11:04] <LazyAngel> mnepton: i dont think chmod +s will do that?
[11:04] <whyme> mnepton, sentimental reasons?
[11:04] <mnepton> whyme: put it out to pasture and let it spend its last days eating canned pears and having some minimum wage orderly change its adult diapers.
[11:05] <Hitch> but the umask is in inverse LazyAngel
[11:05] <mnepton> LazyAngel: "When the group ID bit is set on a directory, all files created under it subsequently receive the group ID of that directory. When the group ID bit is not set, files are created with the group ID of the creating process/user."
[11:05] <swilliamson> ok maybe question2 will be better, I have been tasked to find a corporate proxy solution so we can monitor internet usage, my thought was ubuntu server with squid, and then maybe SARG for reporting.  Anyone have any better ideas?
[11:05] <whyme> mnepton, bossman read your comments.
[11:05] <Hitch> => umask 000 something => everything know will be 777 LazyAngel
[11:06] <whyme> I'll reinstall os9.2.1 on it, and squeez the last little bit of life out of it..
[11:06] <LazyAngel> Hitch: mnepton: ok. then it is actually the +s i want
[11:06] <whyme> when it's ready to be chucked, I'll take it over and see if I can play with it a little.
[11:06] <whyme> :
[11:06] <whyme> :
[11:06] <whyme> :@
[11:06] <whyme> :), is what I mean
[11:06] <whyme> :P
[11:06] <Madpilot> !enter
[11:06] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[11:07] <whyme> huh?
[11:07] <mnepton> whyme: donate it to charity and take a $3K tax write-off ;)
[11:08] <Schalken> is it possible to split a file in to two parts, and then merge them back together afterwards?
[11:10] <mAIJK> Hi, I have recently installed ubuntu and I installed nvidia-glx now... When I do that th driver doesn't change from "nv" to "nvidia".. If I change this myself then my screen cant get signal whenI reboot...  It just work in 1280x1024, not in 1600x1200. But with the old "nv" driver I can use 1600x1200.. Please help...
[11:10] <KurtKraut> Schalken, yes, it is. I cant remember how but sure, you can.
[11:11] <seraphim> mAIJK: i also had a problem with that. coultn't use 1280x1024, had to use 1280x960. with edgy beta it disappeared
[11:11] <Schalken> KurtKraut: Do you know someone/someone that does remember how? ;)
[11:11] <mAIJK> seraphim: edgy beta?
[11:12] <dibblego> should a rc script necessarily return?
[11:12] <seraphim> the next version of ubuntu. but it's still beta and can have severe bugs.
[11:12] <HumanPrototype> hi
[11:12] <KurtKraut> Schalken, usually ubuntuforums.org is the right place for that. The next person who knows how to do it and had I nigh of a sleep (that I havent) may remember and give you further details
[11:12] <whyme> mnepton, it won't even boot off the os9.2 cd! holding down 'c' doesn't work... nor does the crazy arsed Command-Option-Shift-Delete
[11:12] <whyme> !!
[11:12] <Hitch> does anybody know the repository to get mysql-server 5.0?
[11:12] <HumanPrototype> how do i change from 32bit to 64bit?
[11:12] <Schalken> KurtKraut: lol cheers :D
[11:12] <HumanPrototype> Hitch, try the universe or multiverse repos
[11:13] <mnepton> whyme: flash the PRAM. opt-cmd-p-r and let it chime 5 times.
[11:13] <KurtKraut> Schalken, there is a friend of mine over Gaim telling that he sent me 3 films to watch and I cant remember that. So I'm kind of 'memoryless' because of the lack of sleep
[11:13] <whyme> is the the letters 'p' and 'r'?
[11:13] <Hitch> HumanPrototype, I've got the ubuntu Breezy on my desktop
[11:13] <whyme> mnepton, and is that on boot?
[11:13] <mnepton> yup
[11:14] <HumanPrototype> Hitch, open a terminal then type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:14] <LazyAngel> ok. so far, so good. i have a dir where all group members can store files. The directory has +s so all files stored in there will have the same group as the dir. But most users in the folder has umask set so when they create files, it will be 600. I don't want to change all user accounts. (and i don't want to) But i need the files to have permission 660.
[11:14] <Schalken> KurtKraut: well this time on IRC could be spent sleeping...
[11:14] <LazyAngel> mnepton: don't go just yet. read my question please :)
[11:15] <cpk2> HumanPrototype: you should use gksudo for gedit
[11:15] <Hitch> HumanPrototype, and then?
[11:15] <KurtKraut> Schalken, unfortunately no. I'm just waiting a bit to go to work... (only if at that time I can remember who to go there)
[11:16] <HumanPrototype> Hitch, then find the lines for universe and multiverse and enable them - i think there are breezy versions
[11:16] <HumanPrototype> Hitch, or this : http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[11:16] <Schalken> KurtKraut: lol
[11:16] <Riot777> hello
[11:16] <motin_> can someone please tell me how to burn a data-dvd when gnomebaker just freezes, k3b just produces error output and nautilus doesn't support on-the-fly burning and no partition has 4,5 gb free space?
[11:17] <KurtKraut> Schalken, have you have had memory loss by the lack of sleep or intensive work ?
[11:17] <whyme> motin_, with a pencil?
[11:17] <Riot777> motin_: try graveman
[11:17] <Hitch> thanks HumanPrototype
[11:17] <motin_> Riot777: so I will. thx
[11:17] <HumanPrototype> Hitch, no pros - thats a useful bookmark :D
[11:18] <Riot777> np I hope it will be helpful
[11:18] <Schalken> KurtKraut: normally at that point i cant be bothered TRYING to remember something
[11:18] <maijanew> hi, how can I convert file names from one encoding to other? My file names after move to ubuntu now look like "t?ext??.txt".
[11:18] <KurtKraut> Schalken, I understand
[11:19] <SurfnKid> stupid fan
[11:20] <KurtKraut> Schalken, I cant remeber thing but I can think (yet at least). I'm installing xarchive packge. May be it does what you want
[11:20] <bashup> hi, will firefox name be changed in ubuntu, as in debian?
[11:20] <KurtKraut> Schalken, if this works... could tell me atory to sleep (at bed) ?
[11:21] <gnomefreak> bashup: what is it called in debian?
[11:21] <OmniD> I'm trying to burn something and it keeps saying I don't have enough space. The amount of space that is being taken up on the DVD is only 1.4 gigs however...
[11:21] <KurtKraut> bashup, probably no.
[11:21] <Schalken> KurtKraut: agreed
[11:21] <bashup> for now, it's firefox :). But it will be changed to "IceWeasel" or "Spitfire", due to a logo conflict
[11:21] <KurtKraut> Schalken, *a story
[11:22] <gnomefreak> bashup: i havent heard of it changing and as of edgy its stil firefox
[11:22] <motin_> Riot777: now graveman complains as well... Input Output error
[11:22] <KurtKraut> bashup, this issue is no big deal at ubuntu
[11:22] <oskude> bashup: ubuntu doesnt use the trademarked fx logo neither... (atleast i cant see it)
[11:22] <anilomkar> I am having problem with SifyBroadband Client when i am trying to login it is saying "get the latest version of client" please help me
[11:22] <Riot777> :(
[11:22] <Riot777> hmm
[11:22] <bashup> ok ok. I thought it since Ubuntu is a fork of Debian
[11:23] <KurtKraut> bashup, it is not a fork
[11:23] <Riot777> motin_: maybe try pointing the kernel to your DVDRW drive
[11:23] <Riot777> by grub
[11:23] <motin_> Riot777: what do you mean?
[11:23] <KurtKraut> bashup, in the past, it was based in Debian. This is where it came from. And yes, use all .deb stuff. But Ubuntu is not Debian.
[11:23] <Riot777> w8 I will find it
[11:23] <anilomkar> is there any alternate dailer for SifyBroadband???
[11:24] <bashup> ok
[11:24] <KurtKraut> Schalken, bad news.. xarchiver doesnt do spawning as you want.
[11:24] <Riot777> hdc(<-- here your drive)=ide-cd
[11:25] <anilomkar> SifyBroadband client is not working in Ubuntu please help me
[11:25] <Riot777> you must add it to grub config at the kernel configuration
[11:25] <Schalken> KurtKraut: no bedtime story for u then :P
[11:25] <motin_> Riot777: i am not following... is there a howto on this?
[11:25] <motin_> :/
[11:25] <KurtKraut> Schalken, ahahhaha :P
[11:25] <motin_> I did burn a DVD once with gnomebaker, it worked, albeit slowly
[11:26] <anilomkar> ubotu, SifyBroadband
[11:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about SifyBroadband - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:27] <mAIJK> Why does my ---> driver "nvidia" <--- only work with 1280x1024 and not 1600x1200? 1600x1200 works fine with the old ---> driver "nv" <--- ???
[11:27] <jojoman02> which mobo company(s) works best with Ubuntu (or linux) in general
[11:28] <KurtKraut> mAIJK, if no one replies you in your second attemp here, try asking in ubuntuforums.org
[11:28] <mAIJK> KurtKraut: Ok!
[11:28] <ye_olde_fortran> mAIJK, you are a lucky person. lol
[11:29] <ye_olde_fortran> i'd kill for a nvidia graphic card in my laptop
[11:29] <Daverocks> more and more laptops these days have nvidia cards in them
[11:29] <whyme> mAIJK, can you paste your xorg.conf for us?
[11:29] <mAIJK> whyme: Yes, one second!
[11:29] <KurtKraut> whyme, tell him where to paste properly please
[11:30] <whyme> lol, sry
[11:30] <whyme> pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org
[11:30] <mAIJK> pastebin
[11:30] <mAIJK> I know
[11:30] <ye_olde_fortran> yes, but are more expensive than those which have ati or intel cards
[11:30] <whyme> (but you can paste it anywhere you want
[11:30] <whyme> )
[11:30] <Hitch> why should someone care for his graphic card?
[11:30] <Daverocks> ye_olde_fortran: in general, yes :P
[11:30] <mnepton> mAIJK: did you run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" after installing the new driver?
[11:30] <mAIJK> Now, I changed in my xorg myself!
[11:31] <mAIJK> Changed to driver "nvidia" and commented out Load "dri"
[11:31] <ye_olde_fortran> ati graphic cards are not bad, though. They only problems are the f**** driver and the handicap to their opengl implementation
[11:31] <mnepton> ye_olde_fortran: nVidia's driver is no better.
[11:32] <ye_olde_fortran> but nvidia cards have a better opengl implementation
[11:32] <mnepton> ye_olde_fortran: it may be of better quality, but it's still a binary blob.
[11:32] <mAIJK> whyme:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26147/
[11:32] <Hitch> everyday I login here and everyday someone has a problem with his nvidia card!
[11:32] <ye_olde_fortran> yeah, i know, i know
[11:32] <jojoman02> imho the linux nvidia drivers are better
[11:32] <mAIJK> I removed some of the info in the pastebin
[11:33] <ye_olde_fortran> well, i have a desktop computer with a nvidia graphic card, and it works quite fine
[11:33] <whyme> mAIJK, hangon - you're on a lappy?
[11:33] <mAIJK> whyme: no
[11:33] <mAIJK> GeForce 7600GT on AMD Athlon 64 3500+
[11:33] <whyme> I'm on nvidia all the way, both desktop and craptop
[11:33] <whyme> works fine:)
[11:33] <michael_Art> Hi
[11:33] <ye_olde_fortran> the card is a little oldie... geforce 4 mmx
[11:33] <Hitch> I need the repository for the mysql server 5.0 for the dapper pls!
[11:34] <oskude> !info mysql-server
[11:34] <ubotu> mysql-server: mysql database server (current version). In component main, is optional. Version 5.0.22-0ubuntu6.06.2 (dapper), package size 36 kB, installed size 68 kB
[11:34] <michael_Art> HELP! I am an absolut ubuntu and linux newbe.
[11:34] <mAIJK> whyme: Can you find something in my pastebin that is wrong? I have removed 1600x1200 in 24bits mode becaus it doesnt work
[11:34] <mAIJK> whyme:  I know that its needed to be there to run
[11:34] <michael_Art> I need to get my scsa scanner running, but I have no clue
[11:35] <Hitch> ubotu, I need the repository
[11:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about I need the repository - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:35] <whyme> mAIJK, oh right, I was going to tell you to add it in... I can't find anything particularly wrong in it....
[11:35] <oskude> Hitch: read it " In component main"
[11:35] <mnepton> Hitch: "main," like the bot said
[11:35] <michael_Art> I even found the coresponding documentation chapter, but I don't understand them at all
[11:35] <wedgeV> where can i get 2.6.18 or later -mm packages for ubuntu edgy?
[11:35] <mAIJK> whyme:  I know, really strange
[11:35] <mAIJK> whyme:  and sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg will not help I think.....
[11:36] <whyme> well, I don't usually use anything above 1280x1024
[11:36] <Hitch> thanks
[11:36] <whyme> so never been a problem
[11:36] <mAIJK> whyme:  I got an 21" so I need it
[11:36] <whyme> I got 2x22"
[11:36] <mnepton> mAIJK: i would run dkpg-reconfigure
[11:36] <mAIJK> The strange is that 1600x1200 works fine with "nv"
[11:36] <whyme> so I use 2560x1024
[11:36] <whyme> well, no
[11:37] <whyme> I use 1280X1024,1280x1024
[11:37] <whyme> but comes out the same
[11:37] <whyme> I guess that's why... but going back to your question, what gpu is it?
[11:37] <mAIJK> mnepton: Yes, but when the reconf ask alot about my display Hz and such thing I do not know what to answer
[11:38] <mAIJK> whyme: MSI GeForce 7600GT 256Mb
[11:38] <whyme> mAIJK, just press enter if you don't know
[11:38] <whyme> right, so it *should* be able to...
[11:38] <m14> mAIJK: What's problem?
[11:38] <whyme> try "sudo dpgk-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg"
[11:38] <mAIJK> ok, 1moment
[11:39] <michael_Art> can you guys tell me if and how i can edit .conf files like the /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf
[11:39] <mAIJK> I need to reboot after that huh?
[11:39] <boink> michael_Art: using vi
[11:39] <mAIJK> michael_Art: sudo vi /file.conf
[11:39] <michael_Art> this is at least what i think the documentation tryes to tell mel
[11:39] <dibblego> should rc scripts return or doesn't it matter?
[11:39] <boink> return?
[11:39] <michael_Art> on
[11:39] <dibblego> yes, return control
[11:40] <michael_Art> that is in the terminal
[11:40] <michael_Art> ?
[11:40] <michael_Art> ;-)
[11:40] <OmniD> how do I make it low priority on the ubuntu bug thing
[11:40] <dibblego> eh?
[11:40] <michael_Art> sorry, I am really not used to terminal interfaces
[11:40] <boink> the ubuntu rc.d/init.d are like any other System V startup scripts
[11:40] <dibblego> boink, and how is that?
[11:40] <boink> you have gedit as well
[11:41] <boink> but from Edgy Ubuntu will use a different start up .. "upstart"
[11:41] <tn3270> michael_Art : kate, gedit, pico, nano etc
[11:41] <dibblego> I once used an OS where a rc script didn't return and I'm pretty sure it was linux
[11:41] <mAIJK> whyme: sudo dpgk-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[11:41] <dibblego> and it screwed up the boot
[11:41] <mAIJK> whyme: sudo: dpgk-reconfigure: command not found
[11:42] <michael_Art> tn3270 EHAT????!?!?!?
[11:42] <tn3270> editors
[11:42] <whyme> dpkg-reconfigure
[11:42] <whyme> not found?!?!?!?
[11:42] <mAIJK> yes
[11:42] <whyme> umm...
[11:42] <tn3270> michael_Art: i think you need to run gksudo gedit filename or something
[11:42] <oskude> dpgk != dpkg
[11:42] <whyme> LOOOOOOL!!!!
[11:43] <whyme> yea, that'd be it.
[11:43] <mAIJK> lol
[11:43] <mAIJK> :)
[11:43] <mAIJK> CTRL+C
[11:43] <mAIJK> :P
[11:43] <whyme> sorry, 'bout that
[11:43] <mAIJK> Do I have to change back to 1600 in my xorg now?
[11:43] <mAIJK> and then reboot?
[11:44] <mAIJK> dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[11:44] <mAIJK> xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[11:44] <mAIJK>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20061010114323
[11:44] <anilomkar> ubotu, sify
[11:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sify - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:44] <mAIJK> No menu or something like that came
[11:44] <whyme> mAIJK, yea, that's the autoinstaller.
[11:44] <mAIJK> whyme: ok, then I dont need to change anything myself?
[11:44] <whyme> check your xorg.conf, add the 1600x1200
[11:44] <mAIJK> ok
[11:45] <whyme> make sure all is well, and reboot
[11:45] <whyme> :)
[11:45] <whyme> (and cross your fingers)
[11:45] <mAIJK> hehe
[11:45] <ye_olde_fortran> has anyone managed to install xgl-compiz for kde with an ati graphics card? I did, but x server was too slow and it does some odd repainting
[11:45] <mAIJK> It changed so Load "dri" was there again
[11:45] <mAIJK> Remove that one?
[11:45] <whyme> umm... yessss?
[11:45] <whyme> (hesitantly)
[11:45] <mAIJK> whyme: and it change to driver "nv"
[11:46] <mAIJK> And i dont want that!!
[11:46] <whyme> yea, change them both
[11:46] <whyme> !!
[11:46] <whyme> does it have a glcore too?
[11:46] <mAIJK> Then the conf will be back to the way when it does not work
[11:46] <whyme> hmm...
[11:46] <michael_Art> ok, I know, I am embarrasing: sudo vi got me into the file and i was able to remove the # from the outcommennted line.
[11:46] <michael_Art> HOW DO I SAVE???
[11:46] <tn3270> lol
[11:46] <tn3270> :wq
[11:46] <mAIJK> whyme:  no glcore... Im trying with an reboot now...
[11:46] <michael_Art> this is not funny ;-)
[11:46] <tn3270> michael_Art : :wq
[11:47] <neil_d> is there a music program that can use a qwerty keyboard to play different notes?
[11:47] <tn3270> michael_Art : type ":wq"
[11:47] <tn3270> that's colon, write, quit
[11:48] <BHSPitLappy> neil_d, VKeyBd?
[11:48] <oskude> neil_d: the good old trackers used pc keyboard as that... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracker
[11:49] <BHSPitLappy> that's in the repos
[11:49] <michael_Art> :I see
[11:49] <michael_Art> well, lets see, if that was really all needed...
[11:49] <ye_olde_fortran> bye all
[11:49] <michael_Art> no it was not
[11:50] <oskude> neil_d: "soundtracker" is _the_ under linux... but if you need something more "cool", check this http://skale.org/
[11:50] <tn3270> michael_Art: you could have gone with "gksudo gedit yourfile" btw
[11:50] <Schalken> if i burn an iso to cd, then create an iso from that cd, should both isos have the same md5sum?
[11:52] <Seveas> Schalken, yes
[11:52] <Seveas> glatzor, poke
[11:52] <michael_Art> tn3270: gn-what?
[11:53] <tn3270> gksudo gedit
[11:53] <tn3270> i think
[11:53] <boink> can you do sudo gedit ?
[11:53] <boink> or must it be gksudo ?
[11:54] <tn3270> don't think it will launch if you're trying to write a root-only file
[11:54] <glatzor> Hi Seveas
[11:54] <oskude> boink: using sudo for programs that run under x, may cause problems, i heard...
[11:54] <glatzor> Seveas: you removed the screenshot feature :/
[11:54] <glatzor> Seveas: that is said :)
[11:54] <glatzor> sad
[11:55] <michael_Art> well, i did the changes i though i ouch to do in the .conf file, but that doesn't seem to be tre problem
[11:55] <michael_Art> I actull am not even sure, the scsi adapter had been recognised
[11:55] <grodius> Can someone help me, I have an ATI card in an HP laptop, and im trying to get the resolution to work correctly.
[11:55] <neil_d> oskude: thanks I will look into that.
[11:56] <mAIJK> whyme: didn't work...
[11:56] <michael_Art> the help document "sane-scsi(5) si not really any help at all
[11:56] <michael_Art> at leat to mee
[11:56] <jojoman02> is there a way to disable the splash screen?
[11:56] <seraphim> boink, oskude, tn3270: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo
[11:56] <tn3270> michael_Art : sry i am bad at h/w, but you could look at your dmesg output
[11:57] <michael_Art> dmesg?
[11:57] <BlueEagle> jojoman02: Which splash screen? The bootsplash?
[11:57] <jojoman02> BlueEagle: the one after the username and pass in gdm
[11:58] <tn3270> michael_Art : yeah run "dmesg" in a terminal
[11:58] <Seveas> glatzor, I also changed the field names, so webboard is no longer working
[11:58] <tn3270> seraphim : tks nice link
[11:58] <Seveas> glatzor, the screenshot feature was being abused too much
[11:59] <tn3270> michael_Art : you should see some stuff regarding your scsi card if it was installed properly
[11:59] <whyme> mAIJK, you're on dapper, right? And you followed the doc.gwos.org guide, right?
[12:00] <mAIJK> whyme: I followed another guide. Going to read in this a bit.. bbl!
[12:00] <whyme> anyone know how to burn .nrg files under ubuntu?
[12:00] <whyme> kk
[12:00] <whyme> gl/hf
[12:00] <grodius> can someone tell me what FGLRX is, apparently its supposed to help me use my ATI card on my laptop... ??
[12:01] <michael_Art> have to run
[12:01] <jojoman02> what does dmesg do?
[12:01] <michael_Art> see you later
[12:01] <oskude> grodius: fglrx is the binary (closed source) driver from ati
[12:01] <shodanjr_gr> heya guys
[12:02] <PuGz> hey guys. i was hoping to get an extra firmware file included in the linux-restricted-modules package for edgy. how would i go about requesting this?
[12:02] <shodanjr_gr> i got a Q. Lets say i got a PC setup like this -> Partion 1-> Windows in NTFS, Partition 2->FAT32 for Data, The rest of the drive is left for ubuntu
[12:03] <shodanjr_gr> Is there a way to make an image of the Windows partition from Ubuntu so that i am able to restore it in case something goes wrong with Windows? (via Ubuntu again)
[12:03] <Unity> yep grodius is easy to install man, couple of copy & pastes froma  site somewhere and it installs + tests it for ya, i am linux newbie but managed yesterday
[12:03] <Unity> :-)
[12:03] <mjr> shodanjr_gr, yes; dd if=/dev/windowspartition of=windows.img
[12:03] <mjr> (umm, sudo dd etc)
[12:03] <mAIJK> whyme: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy nvidia-xconfig nvidia-settings --- Should I really install xconfig and nvidia-settings ???
[12:03] <glatzor> Seveas: would you like to drop me an email with the changes?
[12:03] <glatzor> Seveas: I am currently quite in a busy
[12:04] <Viking_> mrj: also could pipe through gzip or bzip2 for compressed image :)
[12:04] <Seveas> glatzor, will do, but I forgot your address
[12:04] <mjr> shodanjr_gr, of course, you can do fancier stuff also, like adding compression of the image :] 
[12:04] <mjr> Viking_, yeah :)
[12:04] <shodanjr_gr> mjr will this keep a copy of the Bootloader to the image?
[12:04] <glatzor> Seveas: glatzor at ubuntu dot com :)
[12:04] <mAIJK> whyme:  never mind... I will not use legacy
[12:04] <Seveas> ok 
[12:04] <whyme> oh, were you using legacy drivers?
[12:04] <whyme> that might actually have been the problem...
[12:05] <mjr> shodanjr_gr, it'd copy all of the windows partition, including the boot stuff, but not the MBR, where you'll have grub anyways so no problem
[12:05] <Viking_> shodanjr_gr:  bootloader isnt in the partition its in the master boot record (MBR)
[12:05] <tn3270> shodanjr_gr : you can dd the mbr too if you are afraid
[12:05] <shodanjr_gr> mjr aha, it doesnt matter that the partition is formated in NTFS in anyway?
[12:05] <mjr> shodanjr_gr, oh, and with compression, something like so: dd if=/dev/windowspartition | bzip2 -c > windows.img.bz2
[12:05] <Viking_> shodanjr_gr: nah ... its a binary dump
[12:05] <shodanjr_gr> ah
[12:05] <shodanjr_gr> ok guys
[12:05] <mjr> shodanjr_gr, no
[12:05] <shodanjr_gr> cheers :)
[12:06] <tn3270> gd luck
[12:07] <shodanjr_gr> Whats the name of the linux equivalent of the Windows Vista Aero dealie?
[12:07] <Viking_> compe.... something?
[12:07] <seraphim> XGL or AIGLX with compiz or beryl
[12:08] <shodanjr_gr> aha
[12:08] <shodanjr_gr> yeah, XGL, thats it... my brain stoped working there for a sec
[12:08] <newpZ> yeah and XGL/beryl rocks
[12:09] <enzo^_^> hi,is there anybody familiar with embedded linux,like uclinux
[12:10] <shodanjr_gr> Is 3d acceleration supported on the Intel 950GM family of chipsets
[12:10] <shodanjr_gr> ?
[12:10] <mjr> shodanjr_gr, yes
[12:10] <mjr> umm, scratch that, I'm not 100% sure if that's too new for dapper, the current release
[12:10] <shodanjr_gr> by default? Or do i need to apt-get something?
[12:11] <mjr> that is to say, there is support, not sure it is in Dapper by default.
[12:11] <shodanjr_gr> ah
[12:11] <shodanjr_gr> gota look it up :)
[12:11] <Viking_> for nvidia cards you have to load the binary driver to get accel .. not sure about the intel cards
[12:12] <mjr> Viking_, intels are supported with free drivers
[12:16] <tanath> can someone help me get my winkey working (in xgl)?
[12:16] <Viking_> mjr, k , thanks didnt know that
[12:16] <rioch> I've just installed ubuntu but during the install process I typed my name wrong (not login, but real name). Is there a way to change it?
[12:17] <oskude> !xgl > tanath
[12:17] <tanath> i read a tip on the forums that you can enable (fix) it in System > Prefs > Keyboard > Layout options, but it didn't work.
[12:17] <tanath> oskude, how's that help?
[12:18] <oskude> tanath: when you read what ubotu said "Help in #ubuntu-xgl"
[12:19] <rambo3> !info opera edgy
[12:19] <ubotu> Package opera does not exist in edgy
[12:19] <newpZ> i would be hapy to get the mplayer plogin working in opera!
[12:20] <mnepton> rioch: System -> Admin -> Users And Groups
[12:20] <mnepton> newpZ: symlink the Firefox plugin to Opera's plugin dir
[12:20] <mnepton> newpZ: you may get better answers on OperaNet, though
[12:20] <rioch> mnepton: thanks!
[12:21] <newpZ> mnepton, which .so is it?
[12:21] <newpZ> i think i tried that already
[12:22] <kyja> I dont understand where I am going wrong wth grubconf-0.5.1
[12:22] <TomaszD> hello, I can't seem to get the answer in #ubuntu-translators. In which package in rosetta might I find the gnome-at-properties strings?
[12:23] <rambo3> newpZ, you can cat .mozilla/firefox/profile.ini and see for your self
[12:23] <rambo3> no not that one
[12:24] <newpZ> pluginreg.dat?
[12:24] <abhi> can anyone tell me how to install gtk+2 using apt-get? I can't find the correct name of gtk.
[12:25] <tsw> abhi: apt-cache search gtk 2 |less and pick the one that pleases you
[12:25] <newpZ>  /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/mplayerplug-in-wmp.so
[12:25] <newpZ> im thinking
[12:25] <abhi> thanks asw.
[12:26] <rambo3>  ls -la /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
[12:27] <newpZ> rambo3, there are a ton of mplayer plugins there
[12:27] <newpZ> which one to link to opera plugins?
[12:27] <rambo3> i would think you just add dir
[12:27] <Viking_> abhi: you probably want libgtk
[12:28] <abhi> yes. I thing
[12:28] <newpZ> yeah that path is in pluginpath.ini
[12:28] <Viking_> abhi: libgtk2.0-0 is the name of the package on my host
[12:30] <abhi> thanks Viking_. Is this the library required during the installation of various apps.
[12:30] <newpZ> and all the docs i find via google have not yet been able to get me to get mplayer in opera working in dapper
[12:31] <Viking_> abhi: yes the are  great number of packages that would depend on this ... be a little surprised it didnt get installed during installation
[12:31] <newpZ> gxine will launch but says no demuxer found... i download the clip and it will play in gxine.. bugy!
[12:32] <bun-bun> anyone using google earth?
[12:33] <abhi> Viking_: I have already installed this file .But during the installation of napster it shows that GTK+ is not installed.
[12:33] <mnepton> newpZ: have you asked on OperaNet?
[12:34] <Viking_> abhi: ah .. well then something else is amiss
[12:34] <mnepton> abhi: Napster? did i fall asleep and time travel backwards? ;)
[12:34] <mnepton> abhi: where are you getting this package?
[12:35] <Viking_> abhi: try this ... sudo /sbin/ldconfig -v to update your library cache incase it cant find the libs
[12:35] <abhi> Viking_: I am confused about a lot of GTK+ library files .
[12:35] <newpZ> sorry got booted
[12:35] <newpZ> whats operanet?
[12:35] <mnepton> Opera Software's IRC server
[12:35] <abhi> mnepton: i got it from site
[12:36] <mnepton> irc.opera.com
[12:36] <mnepton> abhi: what site?
[12:36] <Viking_> abhi The system just has to know where to find them ... surprised if it isnt installed correctly already though
[12:36] <newpZ> cool ill try that
[12:36] <mnepton> newpZ: you want #opera over there
[12:36] <abhi> Viking_: ok i will try this.
[12:36] <abhi> mnepton: i forgot
[12:37] <newpZ> k trying now
[12:37] <newpZ> thans
[12:37] <mnepton> abhi: you know that that will not let you download music, right?
[12:37] <mnepton> abhi: Napster is a pay-for service. the free p2p network, and the clients that ran on it, have not been in operation for years.
[12:38] <mnepton> my guess is that that package requires an ancient (and therefore severely deprecated and hence unshipped) version of GTK
[12:39] <abhi> mnepton: i am just want to use it
[12:39] <Viking_> good point ... it may be looking for an older version of GTK
[12:39] <Viking_> does it report which version it expects?
[12:40] <abhi> Viking_: wait I will compile it
[12:41] <mnepton> abhi: but ... you *can't* use it. the network to which it connects is gone.
[12:41] <MaKaTiGuY> guys nid some help
[12:42] <MaKaTiGuY> im getting errors while installing ubuntu 6.06
[12:42] <abhi> mnepton: ooooooh.
[12:42] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: what kind of errors
[12:42] <MaKaTiGuY> buffer 1/0 error on device hdb, logical block
[12:43] <MaKaTiGuY> vfs: brelse: trying to free free buffer
[12:43] <Viking_> oooo ... not good hardware issues perhaps? new or old drive?
[12:43] <MaKaTiGuY> new
[12:43] <MaKaTiGuY> 160 Gb
[12:43] <Viking_> SATA?
[12:43] <MaKaTiGuY> nop
[12:43] <MaKaTiGuY> ATA
[12:44] <MaKaTiGuY> viking: what seems to be the problem?
[12:44] <Viking_> k there goes those ideas :)
[12:44] <reader> #c0r3
[12:45] <mnepton> MaKaTiGuY: time for fsck
[12:45] <whyme> how do I burn .nrg (nero) images in ubuntu? Gnomebaker doesn't recognise them... :(
[12:45] <reader> k3b
[12:45] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: hdb is that 160gb drive ? (not the cdrom?)
[12:45] <mnepton> whyme: why would you put images into a proprietary file format that one comapny controls?
[12:45] <mnepton> :P
[12:45] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: im not sure
[12:45] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: seems like its tried to make a release of a buffer that is already released ... hmmmm not sure what that  implies though
[12:46] <whyme> mnepton, yea, I put them there... right
[12:46] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: coz, i have 4 partitions on my hardrv
[12:46] <whyme> I didn't choose it, it's just how it is...
[12:46] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: do you know what is connected to ide bus 1 as slave ? (thats hdb)
[12:46] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: cdrom
[12:46] <mnepton> whyme: well, you have proprietary file formats. welcome to the world of greedy, commercial software.
[12:46] <whyme> do I *have* to install k3b? I don't want to muddy my system with all that cutie crap
[12:46] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: ok, so hdb is your cdrom
[12:46] <MaKaTiGuY> viking: i dont understand, im sorry, im new
[12:46] <whyme> mnepton, I didn't ask for the nrg file, I just got it.
[12:47] <reader> guys do you now any good program something such as crossover?
[12:47] <MaKaTiGuY> NTFS, does this matter
[12:47] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: is that an old cdrom ? try a boot option "ide=nodma" and allso try the "check cd" option to ensure the cd is ok
[12:47] <tkp> I just ran apt-get remove, to remove a package..
[12:47] <tkp> I now need to install it again
[12:47] <tkp> but apt-get install doesn't find it anymore
[12:48] <tkp> any ideas how to get it back?
[12:48] <cpk2> whyme: k3b is great, and its qt not cutie =P
[12:48] <Viking_> good point ... it may be trying to use a write cache that doesnt exist ...
[12:48] <cpk2> tkp: apt-get update?
[12:48] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: the cd is ok
[12:48] <tkp> cpk2: I did that
[12:48] <cpk2> tkp: did you change your repos recently?
[12:48] <MaKaTiGuY> all my partitions are in the NTFS format, does this matter?
[12:48] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: try installing again but append the ide=nodma option before booting the CD
[12:48] <tkp> cpk2: no...
[12:48] <tkp> but when running update, I get:
[12:48] <tkp> W: GPG error: http://packages.freecontrib.org dapper Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F120156012B83718
[12:49] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: then try adding "ide=nodma" (without "") to the kernel boot options. a line you get when you press the F? key for "boot options" (on the bottom of screen)
[12:49] <cpk2> well you might want to get the gpg key from them if they are the ones with the package
[12:49] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: you cant install ubuntu on ntfs, if thats what you asked
[12:49] <MaKaTiGuY> viking: how do i do that
[12:50] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: once you boot ... there is an option to press a key to edit the options on boot
 MaKaTiGuY: you cant install ubuntu on ntfs, if thats what you asked <--- oh, maybe thats the problem
[12:50] <whyme> cpk2, it's not qute, nor funny.... either way, we're nearly on dialup here and it's asking me to download 40meg of kde apps
[12:50] <whyme> and I don't wanna
[12:50] <whyme> I'll just go and use indows
[12:50] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: ubuntu can read those, no problem... but to install you need to reformat them
[12:50] <tkp> cpk2: and where does that come from?
[12:50] <reader> tkp you have to add universe and multiverse to /etc/apt/source.list  if you have problem with NO_PUBKEY .....
[12:51] <cpk2> tkp: ideally where you got that repo from
[12:51] <brutopia> is it possible to use ubuntu linux in lan to redirect some netbios name to other computer in lan
[12:51] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: and thats definetly not the problem, as you said, hdb is cdrom, and hdb is not a partition...
[12:51] <cpk2> whyme: isnt there some burning app called gnomebaker or something?
[12:51] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: the other thing is you need to make sure your installing HDD that has space or make space to install
[12:51] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: just try the ide=nodma boot option and see if it works
[12:52] <whyme> cpk2, yea, but it doesn't recognise nrg files
[12:52] <whyme> :(
[12:52] <cpk2> oh =(
 hmmm...ok, i'll try that one
[12:52] <whyme> s'ok
[12:52] <kyja> what about k3b ?
[12:52] <MaKaTiGuY> thanks
[12:52] <cpk2> k3b recognizes .nrg?
[12:52] <whyme> kyja, we've altready covered that option
[12:52] <cpk2> isnt that a nero image?
[12:52] <kyja> not sure
[12:52] <whyme> ...
[12:52] <kyja> ah
[12:52] <whyme> cpk2, yea it is...
[12:52] <Viking_> whyme, there is a nero for linux but not sure
[12:52] <cpk2> eww nero images
[12:53] <Viking_> ... if I would install it
[12:53] <cpk2> there might be something that will convert .nrg to .iso
[12:53] <cpk2> there are similiar things for .cue files or whatever
[12:54] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: before i re start, can i convert my drive to FAT32?
[12:54] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: you can allso do that in ubuntu (when it starts) in the install process
[12:55] <MaKaTiGuY> ok, tnx
[12:55] <MaKaTiGuY> brb
[12:56] <shodanjr_gr> is there a PCMCIA USB 2.0 card that works well with ubuntu?

[01:05] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: 1/0 error, hdc
[01:05] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: 1/0 error, hd
[01:05] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: hmm, allso with ide=nodma ?
[01:06] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: i have 4 partions on my hD, 3 are in the NTFS format, 1 fat32
[01:06] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: and whats in hdc ? (ide bus2 master)

[01:06] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: fdisk -l /dev/hdc
[01:06] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: you said you get those errors at booting the desktop cd ? that doesnt touch the harddisks...
[01:06] <Viking_> oskude: I thought he said during installation
[01:07] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: during installation
[01:07] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: oh indeed, my bad, sorry...
[01:07] <MaKaTiGuY> its ok..
[01:08] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: you said i cant install ubuntu on a NTFS format
[01:08] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: you said that i cant install ubuntu on a NTFS format
[01:08] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: no i didnt!
[01:08] <MaKaTiGuY> oh sorry
[01:08] <MaKaTiGuY> so i can?
[01:08] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: nope
[01:09] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: and only cause microsoft doesnt give the needed information about the ntfs format
[01:09] <just4freeze> why my usplash blank after update something?
 MaKaTiGuY: fdisk -l /dev/hdc <--- where do i type this one, sorry for being slow, 1st time in linux
[01:09] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: i would recommend using ext3 as format for ubuntu /
[01:10] <MaKaTiGuY> ext3?
[01:10] <oskude> ext3
[01:10] <oskude> !ext3
[01:10] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[01:10] <Celeste> hi
[01:10] <Celeste> what is the "file system type" which I have to define for a DVD via the  -t  option in "mount" please?
[01:10] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: you _cant_ install ubuntu on ntfs or fat(32)
[01:10] <mjr> Celeste, udf
[01:11] <boink> and nfts and fat are horrible file systems
[01:11] <boink> s/nfts/ntfs/
[01:11] <Celeste> thank you mjr
[01:11] <mjr> ntfs isn't really that horrible, just that it's proprietary
[01:12] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: you would type that in a terminal session
[01:12] <Viking_> are you in the boot process? or are you running ubuntu already
[01:12] <fbenites> hi!
[01:12] <MaKaTiGuY> viking: xp
[01:13] <Viking_> k
[01:13] <fbenites> i got a ubuntu server printer (i mean the printer is connected to the ubuntu machine) the windows machines can see the printer with the smb connection, but when i print it sees awfull (in the smb.conf i use client driver =yes , if i set to no, it doesnt print at all)
[01:14] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : which partitions if any, are you planning to lose
[01:14] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: any partition
[01:14] <MaKaTiGuY> i would like to have a dual boot
[01:14] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : eh
[01:15] <Viking_> does the new hdc have any partitions installed on it?
[01:15] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : are all your 4 partitions "primary"
[01:15] <MaKaTiGuY> viking: 4 partitons
[01:15] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: one way would be, delete the partition you dont need, and let ubuntu installer use that unpartitioned space
[01:15] <fbenites> printing with http://ip:631 works nice but my ip changes (dhcp) and i dont have control over that
[01:16] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : if there is already an extended partition, it is more challenging
[01:16] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : in windows you can use your disk manager to check
[01:16] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: how do i do that
[01:17] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : right click "my comp", manage
[01:17] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: i dont know "nothing" about xp, sorry ;)
[01:17] <nex_> howdy
[01:17] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY: shld be under admin tools or something
[01:17] <oskude> fbenites: where is the dhcp server ? can you acces it and set mac-addres-foo gets ip foo ?
[01:17] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: ok
[01:18] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY: you have how many physical disks actually?
[01:18] <fbenites> oskude nope
[01:18] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: : )
[01:18] <[Nige] > how do I find out the version of mplayer i have?
[01:18] <fbenites> it is here a huge network, it is somewhat difficult to contact the admin for chaning it, if there is another way
[01:19] <wickedpuppy> [Nige] , open up mplayer and go to help ? there should be info or about
[01:19] <[Nige] > i will check again
[01:19] <oskude> fbenites: for the ip changes, dunno... on internet dyndns.org (or such) would help
[01:19] <mumbles> how do i find out what program is running ?
[01:19] <mumbles> wich
[01:19] <wickedpuppy> ps aux
[01:19] <mumbles> its either aptuid or symatic
[01:19] <mngrif> would someone know of a quick guide for setting up hostap?
[01:20] <NET||abuse> anyone know if there's a team speak client in the debs anywhere??
[01:20] <oskude> mngrif: whats hostap ?
[01:20] <NET||abuse> hostap?
[01:20] <[Nige] > wickedpuppy, i didnt see it there
[01:20] <root> snif still doesnt work
[01:20] <wickedpuppy> mumbles, its ps aux .. if you want to know the programs that are running ...
[01:20] <mngrif> *sigh*
[01:20] <MaKaTiGuY> i have 1 primary partition and 3 logical drives
[01:20] <mngrif> http://hostap.epitest.fi/
[01:20] <fbenites> oskude: nice idea... although not very useful, since i must install more software... there should be away out with smb...
[01:20] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY: hmm, how many h/d?
[01:20] <mumbles> wickedpuppy thanks - cant see the program thats supposadly running though
[01:20] <mngrif> in short, it allows most any wifi card in a computer to become a wifi access point for other boxen
[01:21] <wickedpuppy> [Nige] , then go to synaptic and search for mplayer ... see the version that is currently installled .. i don't have it installed. i use vlc :P
[01:21] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: 1 hd
[01:21] <oskude> mngrif: sorry, never heard...
[01:21] <mngrif> the docs are a bit too thorough though
[01:21] <NET||abuse> mngrif, coool!
[01:21] <wickedpuppy> mumbles, what is it ?
[01:21] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: 1 hd, 4 partition
[01:21] <jfly> does someone already have a problem with utf and ubiquity?
[01:21] <mngrif> NET||abuse: indeed.
[01:21] <mumbles> only one software managament tool is allowed to run at the same time. please close the other application. e.g. aptitude or synaptic first
[01:21] <oskude> !info hostap
[01:21] <ubotu> Package hostap does not exist in any distro I know
[01:21] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY: ok easiest would be to nuke the last logical drive
[01:21] <[Nige] > found it.. mplayer :)
[01:21] <mumbles> thats the errer i get
[01:21] <oskude> !info hostapd
[01:21] <mngrif> !info hostapd
[01:21] <jfly> rambo3, i tried the link you sent to me but it doesnt help
[01:21] <ubotu> hostapd: user space IEEE 802.11 AP and IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticator. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.5.0-1 (dapper), package size 156 kB, installed size 484 kB
[01:21] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY: backup your stuff first though
[01:22] <rambo3> jfly, what link
[01:22] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: ok, and then
[01:22] <oskude> mngrif: and you have Prism2/2.5/3 chip ?
[01:22] <[Nige] > naah i just did the mplayer from command it was there
[01:22] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY: the installer should be able to find the free space in the extended partition
[01:22] <[Nige] > wickedpuppy, i tried vlc the pluggin for mozilla didnt seem  to work as well
[01:22] <jfly> I received that: <ubotu> rambo3 wants you to know: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[01:22] <mngrif> oskude: yep
[01:22] <jfly> so I thought it was from you
[01:22] <NET||abuse> mngrif, that's a nice idea.. i guess you could build your own AP distro based on that.. super light weight typa thingy
[01:23] <mngrif> oskude: and a DS that would love to get online
[01:23] <wickedpuppy> [Nige] , ah k ..
[01:23] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY: you did mention that you had i/o errors though, that might be a prob
[01:23] <oskude> mngrif: did you install that "hostapd" ? (and this maybe usefull too "hostap-utils")
[01:23] <mngrif> not to mention several friends that like to drop by and hijack my wifi :P
[01:23] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: how can i delete the last partiton
[01:23] <rambo3> tell it to ubuntu developers
[01:23] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: how can i delete the last partito
[01:23] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : just select it and right click i think
[01:23] <mngrif> oskude: there's a bit more to it than that, i'll need to bridge the connection to eth0
[01:24] <MaKaTiGuY> ok
[01:24] <oskude> mngrif: sorry, i hate networking ;) isnt there any howtos/docs on the site ?
[01:24] <NET||abuse> mngrif, well once hostap deals with the AP functionality on the wifi card, your tables can deal with the ip routeing
[01:24] <mngrif> oskude: if there was I wouldn't be asking
[01:24] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: once its deleted you should be able to boot ubuntu and it will see the free space on the disk , ... just let it partition it and should be all good
[01:24] <NET||abuse> that's wicked
[01:24] <snikker> how can i read a data from ttyS0? i've used minicom but it don't work
[01:25] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : after that reboot with the cd and pray :P
[01:25] <tn3270> hehe
[01:25] <MaKaTiGuY> ok...: )
[01:25] <MaKaTiGuY> ok
[01:25] <MaKaTiGuY> hold on
[01:25] <NET||abuse> anyway,, does anyone know of a teamspeak client in the ubuntu debs?? or do i just have to download the binary from www.goteamspeak.com ???
[01:25] <oskude> mngrif: sorry, the most people here ask first, search then ;)
[01:25] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : not sure this is a driver prob? what h/d is this actually?
[01:25] <mngrif> oskude: i'm well aware... i come from ##freebsd where that kind of activity gets you shot on sight :P
[01:26] <Zaggynl> Hi, I'm attempting to use Tor, and I get no errors whatsoever, but my IP remains the same when I surf to www.whatismyip.com
[01:26] <Zaggynl> I've set it as my proxy in Firefox
[01:26] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : ide 160GB?
[01:26] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: imreally not sure
[01:26] <Zaggynl> I started privoxy, but still nothing
[01:26] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: yes 160gb
[01:26] <oskude> mngrif: then try to specify your question, im sure someone here knows more about networking...
[01:27] <mngrif> anyone know how to quickly set up hostap? as in a nice series of commands to copy & paste and what needs to be edited
[01:27] <webben> I'm running an Ubuntu server behind a NAT firewall/router. On the server, I have VMWare server including a Windows machine. I'd like to share files between Ubuntu and the Windows VM.
[01:28] <webben> For Network Connection, do I need to use "Bridged:Connected directly to the physical network"
[01:28] <webben> or "NAT:used to share the host's IP address."
[01:28] <Viking_> mngrif: been a while but reading through the doco wasnt difficult
[01:29] <Viking_> webben: depends ... do you want to share the same IP or have individual IPs for the VMs?
[01:29] <NET||abuse> webben, mount the drive through ntfs driver in ubuntu.. no need to use smb/cifs network sharing if it's a vm machine
[01:29] <mngrif> Viking_: got any links laying around? google really isnt being too useful
[01:30] <webben> NET||abuse: It's FAT formatted. Do you know of any instructions of how to do that? Can it be mounted on Ubuntu while the VM is running?
[01:30] <webben> Viking_, whatever's easiest really
[01:31] <Viking_> k ... looking
[01:31] <NET||abuse> webben, hmm, the vm should provide abstracted access to the drive data, and allow the likes of a shared data drive, in fat type formats, locally mounted in each Virtual machine
[01:31] <dragoncham88> After cutting my own Dapper cd I tried upgrade to Dapper.First I had checksum problem, which I corrected. Now when I reboot I lost my X server. It seems that I have some index files out of sync. Has anyon had this problem?
[01:31] <NET||abuse> umm,. s/drive data/drive device/
[01:32] <NET||abuse> webben, i've not much experience with this,, just trying to think what the one virtualised server i've looked at does
[01:32] <mngrif> http://oob.freeshell.org/nzwireless/LWAP-HOWTO.html
[01:32] <mngrif> ah-hah!
[01:32] <NET||abuse> mngrif, yay
[01:32] <tanja_> hello
[01:33] <Viking_> webben: go with bridged then ... you can treat traffic from the machines more independantly ... but I think they are both pretty easy from memory
[01:33] <NET||abuse> Viking_, can he not have the fat drive mounted locallly on both virtual machines?
[01:33] <oskude> mngrif: theres allso the hostap list archive (i assume you searched there too) http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/
[01:34] <Viking_> he can share it via one VM and have it mounted under the other
[01:34] <mngrif> oskude: i'm wading through it
[01:34] <oskude> mngrif: oh that doesnt have search, lol
[01:34] <Viking_> if bridged that is
[01:34] <tanja_> I'd like to use my integrated usb wecam with ubuntu but I don't know how to make it work. Hope that here are some specialists which can help me? For information: I use notebook Asus A6T
[01:34] <NET||abuse> Viking_, but you can't mount the drive in the linux vm as if it was a local drive? no?
[01:35] <oskude> mngrif: but this seems to work http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Flists.shmoo.com%2Fpipermail%2Fhostap+install&btnG=Google+Search
[01:35] <Koptor> Hi all, having some problems with my Ubuntu install, changed motherboards and now it hasnt detected my network interface (its PCI rather than integrated)... I'm no expert with Linux, any ideas anyone?
[01:36] <mngrif> oskude: the thing is, "hostap" is a driver...
[01:36] <newpZ> Koptor, intergrated doesnt mean its not pci
[01:36] <Viking_> no, I think the VM has access to either a file on the system it was started under or a separate partition
[01:36] <oskude> mngrif: that you can load as module ?
[01:37] <dakira> hi.. does anyone know a command to list all installed packages which are NOT in the repositories
[01:37] <mAIJK> Hello, Im trying to install Cedega on my Amd 64 but Cedega is only for i386.. Is it possible to fake this so I can install this appl?
[01:37] <Koptor> newpZ: the old one had onboard ethernet, this one is on a PCI card
[01:37] <mngrif> oskude: loaded and ready to go
[01:37] <newpZ> what type of card is it?
[01:37] <newpZ> make + model
[01:37] <Koptor> I know its a Dlink, I'll check the model
[01:38] <newpZ> u might have to use the ndsdrivers
[01:38] <tanja_> does nobody have an idea to make my webcam work?
[01:38] <Viking_> NET||abuse: which way are the OS's setup? Windows running Linux or the other way around?
[01:38] <oskude> mngrif: and this doesnt help neither ? http://hostap.epitest.fi/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/hostap/README?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain
[01:38] <newpZ> Koptor, http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu
[01:39] <oskude> mngrif: at the "Bridging between wireless and wired networks"
[01:39] <Viking_> tanja_: check the hardware compatibility in video4linux to see if a linux kernel module exists for it ... an lsusb may help identify the webcam if you dont see it on the list
[01:40] <jrib> dakira: take a look at file:///usr/share/doc/aptitude/html/en/ch02s03.html in your browser and see if you come up with some aptitude search for that.  I think "origin" will let you match where a package comes from
[01:40] <NET||abuse> Viking_, i think i got the situation misunderstood
[01:40] <dakira> jrib: thx.. I'll check it out!
[01:41] <tanja_> viking: lsusb shows me: http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/4203/
[01:41] <Viking_> NET||abuse: Im starting to wonder too
[01:41] <Viking_> :)
[01:41] <dakira> jrib: I was going to do it with apt-cache policy and check if the installed version is newer than the version in the repository
[01:41] <tanja_> viking: what is video4linux ? a program?
[01:41] <jrib> dakira: yeah you could do that too, but it probably involves more scripting
[01:41] <dakira> jrib: but that script would've taken forever
[01:42] <Viking_> tanja_: its the necessary code to run the camera ... (the way linux does it) and there is a website that lists hardware compatability
[01:42] <dakira> jrib: yeah.. and I would have to check every installed package and compare the version numbers.. I'll rather check out aptitude now *g* thx for the advice
[01:43] <tanja_> viking: in synaptic I can see that I have v4l and v4l2 installed
[01:43] <mAIJK> Sorry, think i typed my question badly. : How do I run an application made fro ubuntu.i385 on my ubuntu.am64 ?
[01:43] <Koptor> it appears to be a Dlink DFE-500TX, and since I've no network access, how would I go about installing ndiswrapper?
[01:43] <Viking_> which is good ... but there is something in the kernel which needs to interface between the hardware and the v4l stuff
[01:44] <Viking_> mAIJK: I had to install a package ... um ... 32bit something in order to get some apps to work
[01:44] <mAIJK> Viking_:  hmm.. okay..
[01:44] <reader> hi
[01:45] <oskude> mAIJK: never done that, but "/msg ubotu chroot" may help...
[01:45] <reader> is any program such as GkrellM ? I have been use Gkrell in mandriva
[01:45] <tanja_> viking: I can't check the compatibility at a website because I don't know the card type. In windows there is only shown "1.3M USB Webcam" - nothing else
[01:45] <Viking_> mAIJK: ia32-libs
[01:46] <mAIJK> Viking_:  I have that one installed
[01:46] <oskude> !gkrellm > reader
[01:46] <mAIJK> Viking_:  and now I installed linux32
[01:46] <next_level> hello !
[01:46] <oskude> !repos > reader
[01:46] <mAIJK> Viking_:  But how Do in install cedega.i386.rpm now?
[01:46] <mngrif> eth1: Firmware determined as Intersil 1.4.3
[01:46] <mngrif> hrm.
[01:46] <reader> THANK YOU FOR HELP
[01:46] <Viking_> ooo ... rpm ...
[01:47] <next_level> i would like to ask you, i have a dedicated server with ubuntu 6.06 on it, and i would like to install a web proxy just for me, because the connection there is faster
[01:47] <Viking_> first I would look for a deb package somewhere
[01:47] <next_level> could someone guide me to a site/app?
[01:47] <mAIJK> Viking_:  I typed wrong
[01:47] <mAIJK> Viking_:  I meant .deb
[01:47] <Viking_> oh
[01:47] <Viking_> dpkg is the command I think
[01:47] <Viking_> :)
[01:48] <mAIJK> But when I try to install It says wrong "You have not i386"
[01:48] <Viking_> just checking if there is a gui version
[01:48] <yakumo> anyone know how to open my yahoo mail using evolution mail?
[01:48] <Viking_> you can specify  a force option
[01:48] <Viking_> would have to look it up ....
[01:48] <mAIJK> hmm
[01:48] <oskude> yakumo: if yahoo supports that, its like installing any other mail account in evolution...
[01:49] <webben> Viking_, in my case, Ubuntu server running Windows
[01:49] <Viking_> webben: so you have a partition mounted under linux ... and you want to do something with it under windows?
[01:50] <webben> Viking_, no
[01:50] <webben> Viking_, not exactly, i just want to share files, I thought I had to do that via Samba shares
[01:50] <yakumo> how will i know if my yahoo mail is supported, im using free yahoo mail... thnks
[01:50] <Viking_> that will work fine under bridged mode
[01:50] <oskude> yakumo: by searching/Asking yahoo site...
[01:50] <KenSentMe> yakumo: check the yahoo website if they support pop3 or imap mail
[01:50] <webben> yakumo, yahoo mail should work
[01:51] <webben> yakumo, if in doubt, test with a Live CD
[01:51] <next_level> .
[01:51] <next_level> ?
[01:51] <Viking_> webben: I havent tried to do that with NAT type of connection
[01:51] <Viking_> webben: bridged works good Ive done that before
[01:51] <webben> yakumo, oh sorry, i missed you were talking about evolution, still  i suspect that will work
[01:51] <ws248443> Could anyone tell how can I rewrite MBR sector for grub image? Windows installation rewrite this sector and now I can't run linux.
[01:52] <yakumo> ok thnks
[01:52] <oskude> !grub > ws248443
[01:52] <oskude> ws248443: ubotu should tell you to read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[01:53] <Viking_> mAIJK: the 64bit webpage in the ubuntu forums is quite good for that kind of stuff ... at least thats how I found it
[01:53] <webben> yakumo, okay having looked up free yahoo mail offers no POP
[01:53] <webben> yakumo, http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/pop/pop-35.html
[01:53] <webben> yakumo, now there may be special programs to poll yahoo webmail and turn it into POP (as exist with Hotmail)
[01:53] <webben> but it would be a fiddly process
[01:53] <yakumo> how?
[01:54] <sheepsheep> 65
[01:54] <webben> yakumo, http://www.ypopsemail.com/
[01:54] <yakumo> is it the yop
[01:54] <yakumo> ok
[01:55] <yakumo> thnks
[01:55] <oskude> yakumo: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-7092.html
[01:55] <sheepsheep> so... ammmmm when does 6.10 going out?
[01:55] <oskude> sheepsheep: soon
[01:55] <jrib> ubotu: tell sheepsheep about schedule
[01:58] <webben> if you were installing ubuntu on a laptop today, would you install Dapper or Edgy, if you planned to upgrade to Edgy anyway?
[01:59] <webben> (yes, this is sort of "how broken is Edgy currently" question)
[01:59] <oskude> webben: i heard its known that they like to (badly) broke new version just before release ;)
[02:00] <whyme> Viking_, yes, there is nerolinux, and it works!!! :O (yes, I know I'm hours late for that one, but I've just come back from lunch :)
[02:00] <webben> oskude: yeah, that's why i'm  a bit wary :)
[02:00] <whyme> Viking_, it looks awful though
[02:00] <whyme> in that "kde running on gnome" way
[02:00] <Viking_> yeah ... not great
[02:01] <whyme> Viking_, how do I gnome-ise it, do you know?
[02:01] <DarkMageZ> webben, i'd install edgy
[02:01] <oskude> whyme: atleast i am waiting for this ;) https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/human-theme-for-qt-and-kde
[02:02] <DarkMageZ> webben, but i'm using a desktop, so i don't know how broken the laptop related stuff is
[02:02] <whyme> I mean, is there a command line option when I start a program to run it through gtk? like "gtk nero" rather than just "nero"?
[02:02] <oskude> whyme: i doubt...
[02:02] <Viking_> whyme: write your own? :)
[02:02] <webben> whyme: it rarely works like that
[02:03] <oskude> whyme: i dont know *any* program that is build with qt and gtk :/ (and that in the same package)
[02:03] <webben> oskude: i seem to remember it's possible to build mplayer like that
[02:03] <Viking_> whyme: there is no command its just written that way
[02:03] <webben> (mplayer seems to have more configuration options than anything else on earth)
[02:03] <oskude> whyme: but, your not far from idea, theres allready a "run gtk apps as qt"
[02:03] <whyme> I seem to recall under gentoo, the USE flags can let you compile a program for one or the other.... but I guess we're not talking about the same thing here...
[02:03] <Viking_> mplayer rocks
[02:04] <whyme> yea it does!
[02:04] <newpZ> can u theme gnome-terminal, im looking for black background with a white font and transparent
[02:04] <MaKaTiGuY> viking: still the same
[02:04] <webben> whyme: there are plenty of options are compile time in lots of programs, rarely true at run time though
[02:04] <webben> s/are compile/at/
[02:04] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: same error
[02:04] <whyme> newpZ, right click the terminal and wade through the options
[02:04] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: what happens?
[02:05] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: what did you do ? (exactly, please)
[02:05] <MaKaTiGuY> vikig same old error
[02:05] <abhinay> iam not able to play videos when i play songs, and vice versa, and also iam not able to play songs when i play videos on youtube , any suggestions ?
[02:05] <CromagDK> anyone have any experience with windows in vmware on linux running photoshop cs2 ?
[02:05] <whyme> newpZ, "edit current profile > colours" for the colours and ">Effects" for transparencyt
[02:05] <abhinay> what plugin/package do i need to fix this problem ?
[02:05] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: i deleted a partition and install ubyntu
[02:06] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: so you had 3 primary partitions and free space ?
[02:06] <[GuS] > Bonjour...
yes,but I had install crossover and into crossover Photoshop 9
[02:06] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: but i get the same error
[02:06] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: so you had 3 primary partitions and free unpartitioned space ?
[02:06] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: yes
[02:06] <Moataz> I want to buy a DVDRW, Will it be detected automatically and i will be able to burn dvds or i need to reinstall ubuntu?
[02:06] <whyme> newpZ, *not true transparency, just repainting the desktop area under the terminal, so it goes "through" windows if the terminal is on top... looks cool enough though,... so long as you don't move it too fast.... :P
[02:06] <webben> abhinay, have you installed FLash?
[02:06] <CromagDK> reader: in windows ?
[02:06] <tn3270> think is a driver prob
[02:06] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: how much free unpartitioned space did you have ?
[02:06] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: what did the installation say?
[02:07] <dakira> jrib: still there?
[02:07] <abhinay> webben, flash player ?
[02:07] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: 1 primary partition and 2 logical drives and 1 free space
[02:07] <webben> abhinay: yes
[02:07] <newpZ> whyme, thanks
[02:07] <reader> CromagDK in linux and windows as well
[02:07] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY: what did the ubuntu installation say?
[02:07] <abhinay> webben, yes
[02:07] <MaKaTiGuY> viking buffer 1/0 error on hdc, ligical block
[02:07] <CromagDK> reader: i dont understand why crossover was essential in windows.
[02:07] <webben> abhinay, i suspect you need various restricted formats (i.e. stuff which is free to download, but which ubuntu cannot freely distribute on the main cd) : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:08] <jrib> dakira: what's up?
[02:08] <CromagDK> i might do a dualboot somehow then.
[02:08] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: so you made that extended partition with windows ? (dunno if that is a problem) but how much free unpartitioned space did you have ?
[02:08] <reader> sorry,no crossover I just in linux in windows just only photoshop I was bad understand you question
[02:08] <reader> :)
[02:08] <newpZ> is sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-driver-v4l camorama    the only thing i need to get my webcam working? or am i missing some other video4linux?
[02:09] <dakira> jrib: i got it :-)
[02:09] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : which part of the install does it fail
[02:09] <webben> abhinay, hold on, do you mean you're problem is you can't play videos and songs simultaneously?
[02:09] <jrib> dakira: great
[02:09] <Moataz> nobody knows about the DVD issue?
[02:09] <webben> abhinay, that's probably hard to get working on Linux
[02:09] <abhinay> webben, yes
[02:09] <dakira> jrib: for package in $(COLUMS=200 dpkg -l | awk '/ii/{print $2}'); do [ -n "$(apt-cache policy $package | grep -A1 '\*\*\*' | tail -1| grep /var/lib/ )" ]  && echo "$package"; done
[02:09] <webben> abhinay, since technically the video is using sound too
[02:09] <webben> (this works well on MacOS apparently)
[02:09] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: 45 GB free space
[02:10] <abhinay> webben, my friend using ubuntu, is able to play audio and video simultaneously
[02:10] <MaKaTiGuY> tn3270: when installing the OS
[02:10] <webben> abhinay: with YouTube?
[02:10] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : we know, which part
[02:10] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: ok, that should be enough :) so, does that error come after partitioning, or when you press the last button and you get the progress bar ?
[02:10] <webben> abhinay: can you get sound from YouTube at all?
[02:11] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : does it reach the partitioning?
[02:11] <webben> abhinay, because people have had problems with that: http://www.dougdockery.com/2006/07/31/youtube-sound-fix-or-alsa-oss-saves-the-day/
[02:11] <abhinay> webben, no, when i play songs
[02:11] <jrib> dakira: nice, might want to do ^ii though instead of just ii.  You might get packages with double ii in the name that are not isntalled
[02:11] <MaKaTiGuY> before partitioning
[02:11] <webben> abhinay, play songs with what?
[02:11] <tn3270> ouch
[02:11] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: oh :/
[02:11] <abhinay> xmms
[02:11] <dakira> jrib: ahh.. thx ;)
[02:11] <Piete> Hi there. I have to switch a large LTSP installation that's currently running Mandriva to Ubuntu. The system has around 100 user accounts on it. What's the best way to migrate all these users to an Ubuntu installation? (without losing data etc...) Would it be possible for the users to keep the same passwords etc?
[02:11] <abhinay> webben, or any media player
[02:12] <tn3270> it says i/o error on hdc (your hd?)
[02:12] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: go to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[02:12] <MaKaTiGuY> tn: yes
[02:12] <webben> abhinay, http://www.macewan.org/2006/06/01/howto-firefox-flash-video-sound-on-ubuntu-linux-dapper/ also seems relevant
[02:12] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: and type "sudo fdisk -l" and pastebin the output of that
[02:12] <brush01uk> Greetings  Everyone, Have a good Day
[02:13] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: ok, hold on, tnx
[02:13] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: i like http://phpfi.com
[02:13] <tn3270> oskude : eh there is a terminal at that point?
[02:13] <oskude> tn3270: why not ? (actaully never looked)
[02:14] <tn3270> hehe
[02:14] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: or better, make it "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc"
[02:15] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: where should i type that?
[02:15] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: go to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[02:15] <tn3270> hehe i don't think there is a terminal yet
[02:15] <MaKaTiGuY> is terminal?
[02:15] <MaKaTiGuY> is terminal like dos??
[02:15] <djuuss> Piete.. back up old data and try it? Worst case scenario, you have to restore backup, and you'll know why/how it failed.
[02:15] <MaKaTiGuY> command?
[02:15] <tn3270> yeah
[02:16] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdc"
[02:16] <tn3270> MaKaTiGuY : it might be "emergenxy shell" or something
[02:17] <MaKaTiGuY> i think sudo is not valid command in windows
[02:17] <Piete> djuuss, it's just that Mandriva AFAIK, doesn't number users and groups the same way as Ubuntu does.. I suppose I could always just use a for loop or something and renumber all of them.. But I still can't see user passwords working. If it were up to me I'd go to LDAP, but management wants to keep flat files..
[02:17] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: windows ?
[02:17] <tn3270> er i am confused
[02:17] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: hmm, you should be doing all this on the ubuntu dapper dekstop cd
[02:17] <newpZ> is the GE EasyCam 98068 compatible?
[02:18] <djuuss> shodanjr_gr.. that clip is brilliant
[02:19] <abhinay> webben, hey, i found something check it out - http://news.u32.net/articles/2006/08/04/oss-forever-playing-multiple-sounds-simultaneously
[02:19] <Sasalli> hi. can i install ati radeon x1800xt to Ubuntu 6.06 ? if it's possible, how ? thanks !
[02:19] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: if you only have one computer, you could try to come online with the desktop cd...
[02:20] <oskude> !fglrx > Sasalli
[02:20] <oskude> Sasalli: if that driver supports your card...
[02:21] <josh_> where can i get a list of currently available repos?
[02:21] <Sasalli> which drivers?
[02:21] <josh_> easysources aint working so much
[02:21] <richiefrich> !repos
[02:21] <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
[02:21] <MaKaTiGuY^> :(
[02:21] <Piete> !easysource
[02:21] <DarkMageZ> !tell darkmagez about ntfs
[02:21] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[02:21] <oskude> Sasalli: look what ubotu told you (or check atis website for the linux driver, what it supports)
[02:21] <richiefrich> Sasalli there modules but the ati ones or the open source ones
[02:21] <DarkMageZ> !tell darkmagez about ntfs-3g
[02:21] <Viking_> oskude: good point ... wonder which disk is being used for the install,... MaKaTiGuY?
[02:22] <josh_> that doesn't tell me where the repos are...
[02:22] <Sasalli> where is the drivers?
[02:22] <richiefrich> JosefK  http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic

[02:23] <richiefrich> josh_   http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic  <-- that is
[02:23] <Viking_> I meant the live desktop based install or the alternate, oskude MaKaTiGuY
[02:23] <josh_> yeah the site works... the last 3 sets of sources/packages dont
[02:24] <oskude> Viking_: ah, i hope desktop cd
[02:24] <josh_> maybe more... lemme run the update again
[02:24] <fccs> how can i install putty ? please
[02:24] <josh_> fccs, you already have ssh installed by default
[02:24] <MaKaTiGuY^> viking:?
[02:24] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY? which Ubuntu install disk are you using?
[02:24] <fccs> josh_: yes but i can't use ssh 29
[02:25] <josh_> 29?
[02:25] <richiefrich> fccs ?
[02:25] <fccs> josh_: i don't know how it's only 22
[02:25] <fccs> yes
[02:25] <MaKaTiGuY^> i got it from the website
[02:25] <josh_> because 22 is the port for ssh
[02:25] <richiefrich> fccs  what you mean 29?
[02:25] <fccs> richiefrich: ssh 29
[02:25] <josh_> 29 isn't
[02:25] <richiefrich> fccs you can change your port
[02:25] <P3L|C4N0> fccs, read man ssh
[02:26] <richiefrich> fccs /etc/ssh/sshd_config and /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[02:26] <Sasalli> thanks to all. Thats looks lile work.

[02:26] <nmbooker> fccs: To change to non-standard port on a one off basis, use ssh -p29 etc@etc.etc, for persistent rules use config files as Sasalli said.
[02:26] <fccs> richiefrich: putty is more usefull
[02:26] <josh_> apt-get install putty?
[02:26] <MaKaTiGuY^> my first ubuntu...failed
[02:26] <MaKaTiGuY^> :)
[02:26] <LookTJ> Hi
[02:26] <richiefrich> fccs no it is not
[02:27] <Viking_> yeah a little .. there are two versions the desktop CD and the alternate
[02:27] <Viking_> do you know which one?
[02:27] <LookTJ> Is there a xfire thing for gaim?
[02:27] <MaKaTiGuY^> how do i check my cd?
[02:27] <josh_> putty is the same as the ssh in ubuntu...it was modeled after the openssh directive back in the day
[02:27] <richiefrich> fccs what are you looking to do ..  ssh into a computer?
[02:27] <MaKaTiGuY^> if iits desktop or alternate
[02:27] <fccs> richiefrich: yes
[02:28] <Koptor> right, my network card doesnt work in ubuntu server, but it does in the recovery mode, any ideas?
[02:28] <fccs> richiefrich: it's not hacking or something like that, it's my friend pc
[02:28] <richiefrich> fccs then why not use   ssh -p 29 <name>@<addy>
[02:28] <fccs> i have to install something on his box
[02:28] <richiefrich> fccs then why not use   ssh -p 29 <name>@<addy>
[02:28] <josh_> fccs: so do, ssh -p 29 user@computer
[02:28] <Viking_> put it in the drive ... should have a readme file or something in the main directory
[02:28] <LookTJ> Ok no one knows the answer?
[02:28] <fccs> richiefrich: ok thanks :)
[02:28] <richiefrich> np
[02:28] <josh_> ahh... you quicker then me rich
[02:28] <josh_> lol
[02:28] <richiefrich> josh_ :)
[02:29] <richiefrich> josh_ seconds my man
[02:29] <Dreamglider> Whats better to do a lov level format or zero fill the drive
[02:29] <richiefrich> josh_ what sources arent working?
[02:29] <richiefrich> josh_ i have other urls.. let me look
[02:30] <LookTJ> Does anyone know where I can get xfire for Gaim?
[02:30] <MaKaTiGuY^> viking: ubuntu 6.06(disc Tree)
[02:31] <richiefrich> josh_  http://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf  http://seveas.ubuntulinux.nl/  http://www.rarewares.org/
[02:32] <richiefrich> josh_  http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/install.html#3
[02:32] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY^: what image did you download ? and from where ?
[02:32] <MaKaTiGuY^> oskude: ?
[02:32] <Viking_> MaKaTiGuY^: is there a disk info file?
[02:33] <abhinay> howto multiple sounds at once - http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=101125 is it applicable to Dapper Drake ?
[02:33] <abhinay> if not is there any alternatives for this ?
[02:34] <djuuss> offtopic: http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/cold.war/episodes/06/documents/huac/disney.html
[02:34] <MaKaTiGuY^> ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386
[02:34] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: ok, you got the desktop cd (how about writing that on the cd;)
[02:35] <MaKaTiGuY^> 12X
[02:35] <Viking_> MakaTiGuY^ so when you boot off the CD ubuntu loads right?
[02:35] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY^: i mean write with a pen "Ubuntu 6.06.1 desktop cd i386" on the cd
[02:35] <MaKaTiGuY^> ya
[02:35] <MaKaTiGuY^> then it shows the menu
[02:35] <Viking_> into GUI .. and there is an install icon on the "desktop"
[02:36] <MaKaTiGuY^> viking
[02:36] <MaKaTiGuY^> viking: yes
[02:36] <Viking_> oh ok ... it doesnt get that far?
[02:36] <Viking_> oh it does get that far?
[02:36] <MaKaTiGuY^> viking : yes and when i click intall, it initialize the devices
[02:37] <Marlun> When installing Subversion with Apache2 apr I usually did /usr/local/apache2 but the ubuntu config is different, where can I find the Apache2 APR?
[02:37] <MaKaTiGuY^> then after initializaton, it becomes black then showsthe eror
[02:37] <frying_fish> Marlun: to restart apache?
[02:38] <Viking_> hmm ... unfortunately I am not as familiar with that install process ... Im from old school
[02:38] <Marlun> frying_fish: no, to install Subversion it needs the Apache2 APR.
[02:39] <frying_fish> is there not an option in synaptic for subversion stuff for apache
[02:39] <jory_> hi guys. is there any alternative to microsoft's activesync for linux/ubuntu ?
[02:39] <frying_fish> (or your package manager interface option of your choice)
[02:40] <LookTJ> frying_fish: use kde for microsoft-like stuff
[02:41] <frying_fish> LookTJ: ?
[02:41] <Viking_> hey ... MaKaTiGuY^ get the alternate ISO and try installing from that ... I know it sucks having to download it again but it has a different way of installing which might be more informatvie
[02:41] <frying_fish> do you mean jory_ for that ?
[02:41] <djuuss> i think he meant jory_
[02:41] <sethk> frying_fish, we'll assume he wasn't being serious
[02:41] <Dreamglider> Whats better to do a lov level format or zero fill the drive
[02:41] <Viking_> Im off hope that helped
[02:41] <sethk> whoever he meant  :)
[02:41] <sethk> Dreamglider, totally different things
[02:41] <Zaggynl> Anyone knows how I turn down the volume of a Flash file? in Mozilla firefox?
[02:41] <frying_fish> :)
[02:41] <Zaggynl> It's max atm ><
[02:42] <Dreamglider> sethk ok i need it 120% cleaned
[02:42] <Dreamglider> need=want
[02:42] <djuuss> actually i'd like to know too :( is there software to communicate with a windows mobile device (WM5 /WM2003SE)
[02:42] <sethk> Dreamglider, I don't see an advantage to a low level format
[02:42] <sethk> Dreamglider, plus, given what happens at the firmware level, you can never be sure that it's clean
[02:42] <sethk> Dreamglider, you can increase your odds, but you can't be completely sure
[02:43] <frying_fish> Dreamglider: dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/disk
[02:43] <frying_fish> and do that a couple of times
[02:43] <sethk> Dreamglider, I'd probably fill with all zeros, then all ff
[02:43] <sethk> Dreamglider, then repeat
[02:43] <frying_fish> because, the platters aren't perfect and won't spin perfectly so you will need to do it a few times to overwrite everything enough times that a faint signal can't be gained from them.] 
[02:43] <mAIJK> Anyone know how to lock an refreshrate?
[02:44] <sethk> mAIJK, all refresh rates are effectively locked.  the only time the refresh rate is computed on the fly is if _all_ the modes in your xorg.conf file are invalid
[02:44] <sethk> mAIJK, if all are invalid, it will choose from a small group of defaults.
[02:44] <mAIJK> sethk: ok, I have refreshrate 85 on 800x600 and I can hace alot more
[02:44] <sethk> mAIJK, if at least one mode in xorg.conf is valid, it will only use resolution/refresh data from xorg.conf
[02:44] <DethKlok> How do you enable SNMP in Ubuntu?
[02:45] <djuuss> jory_, i found it, its here at http://synce.sourceforge.net/synce/v
[02:45] <sethk> mAIJK, do you mean you want to increase your resolution?
[02:45] <sethk> mAIJK, or you want to increase your vertical rate above 85 for 800x600?
[02:45] <sentinel> is there a way to force gnome to use a specific resolution when not plugging a monitor in? it always defaults back to 640x480
[02:45] <th3_d4r3d3vi1> hey.got a prob
[02:45] <bushblows> is it possible to setup a windows domain in ubuntu?
[02:45] <mAIJK> sethk: I have two problems: 1. I cant have 1600x1200 with my nvidia driver, only with my nv driver... secon problem is 85 hz @ 800x600
[02:46] <th3_d4r3d3vi1> me runnin dapper on an ATI Xpress 200 based sys
[02:46] <sethk> mAIJK, one thing at a time.  what is the problem about 85hz@800x600?
[02:46] <jory_> thx a lot guys, and djuuss
 on me
[02:46] <mAIJK> sethk: When i Play cs @ 800x600 I only get 85Hz
[02:47] <th3_d4r3d3vi1> also i hv xgl+beryl runnin
[02:47] <sethk> mAIJK, what vertical do you want?  and why?
[02:47] <sethk> mAIJK, any effect of raising the vertical freq past 85 will not be visible
[02:47] <th3_d4r3d3vi1> but da prob is pc locks up durin shutdown/restart
[02:47] <th3_d4r3d3vi1> ny solution??
[02:48] <DethKlok> Anyone setup SNMP under linux?
[02:48] <mAIJK> sethk  I want 100Hz and vertical sync of
[02:48] <sethk> DethKlok, which mail server?
[02:48] <sethk> DethKlok, sorry, not mail server
[02:48] <mAIJK> sethk: My biggest problem is that I cant get 1600x1200 in ubuntu with my "nvidia" driver
[02:48] <sethk> DethKlok, I was reading snmp and seeing smtp
[02:48] <sethk> :)
[02:48] <oskude> DethKlok: snmp is a protocol, what do you want to do with it ?
[02:48] <DethKlok> sethk: yeah i feel your pain
[02:48] <DethKlok> oskude: i want to enable it
[02:49] <oskude> DethKlok: enable for what ?
[02:49] <sethk> mAIJK, ok, I do get 1600x1200 using the nvidia driver, so the question is, what's different in your setup?
[02:49] <DethKlok> oskude: the only thing snmp is used for monitoring
[02:49] <DethKlok> oskude: traps and the 9 yards
[02:49] <mAIJK> sethk: I can postbin my xorg
[02:49] <sethk> mAIJK, have you run  (as root)  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[02:49] <oskude> DethKlok: i know, i once did an snmp server in bash...
[02:49] <sethk> mAIJK, the xorg.conf isn't going to help much.
[02:50] <sethk> mAIJK, the X log might help, which is /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[02:50] <DethKlok> oskude: is there a conf file somewhere?
[02:50] <oskude> DethKlok: so youre looking for a network monitoring tool that can snmp ?
[02:50] <melon> is there a specific ftp client that one should check out for ubuntu? (each to their own of course - but i need something nifty)
[02:50] <sethk> mAIJK, usually, do ls -l /var/log/X*  to make sure of the name
[02:50] <DethKlok> oskude: no no i got the tool just need to get snmp on ubuntu so i can use it
[02:50] <sethk> melon, almost everyone uses their web browser as ftp client these days.
[02:51] <oskude> DethKlok: ? sorry, cant follow you... you dont need any drivers or such for snmp...
[02:51] <sethk> DethKlok, that doesn't really make sense.  there are snmp modules for various types of hardware, there are snmp monitoring tools, but there is no such thing as "snmp" itself
[02:51] <oskude> DethKlok: or do you mean you want to monitor ubuntu over snmp ?
[02:51] <melon> yuh - i've been using fireftp in mozilla - but it's kinda causing me a few headaches..
[02:51] <DethKlok> oskude: yeah
[02:51] <rabidity> im hoping someone can help me with 2 issues i am having
[02:52] <oskude> DethKlok: then please ask that
[02:52] <Marlun> frying_fish: the Apache APR already seems to be installed but I don't know where the debian/ubuntu version of Apache2 puts stuff.
[02:52] <DethKlok> oskude: im sorry i didnt phrase it the way you wanted it
[02:52] <mnepton> melon: try gFTP
[02:52] <rabidity> Is there a way to stop a window from going "underneath" the top panel?
[02:52] <oskude> DethKlok: i wanted ? you mean someone could help if he asks "i need to enable http on ubuntu" ?
[02:52] <DethKlok> oskude: I would like to monitor ubuntu with cacti and would like to set it to use the public community
[02:53] <oskude> DethKlok: sounds better :)
[02:53] <DethKlok> oskude: i think this chat is for support not bashing
[02:53] <DethKlok> :)
[02:53] <mnepton> DethKlok: it's also not a good idea to take things too personally, in my experience.
[02:53] <oskude> DethKlok: sorry if i sound too hard, im too long here allready...
[02:53] <frying_fish> Marlun: /etc/apache ?
[02:54] <rabidity> When I open up Terminal Server Client in 16 bit the background is semi transparent.  How can i fix this?
[02:54] <trm> can someone help me installing libdvdcss2 pls, i think ive downloaded and installed it but still not working
[02:54] <oskude> DethKlok: you could take a look at "spong-server" (apt-cache show spong-server)
[02:54] <DethKlok> oskude: I just want it to use public community
[02:54] <sethk> DethKlok, it isn't bashing to ask you to clarify a question that is, as stated, impossible to answer.
[02:55] <sethk> DethKlok, you may think there is only one interpretation, but that's not the case.
[02:55] <DethKlok> sethk: <3
[02:55] <oskude> DethKlok: oh wait it sais " It is not SNMP based" :(
[02:55] <Marlun> frying_fish: nothing like that in there, not what I can see.
[02:55] <frying_fish> and again Marlun if you install your subversion stuff directly from apt it will do it automatically.
[02:56] <Marlun> frying_fish: I know but the repositories doesn't have subversion 1.4 =/
[02:56] <DethKlok> oskude: in windows i click add/remove windows services and select snmp and set it up, in ubuntu i ......
[02:56] <oskude> DethKlok: i once used nagios to monitor servers and had to do a snmp server (that monitored iptables) in bash... thats all i did with snmp
[02:56] <frying_fish> specific feature of 1.4 thats not in an older version that you need?
[02:56] <rabidity> Is there a way to stop a window from going "underneath" the top panel?
[02:56] <oskude> DethKlok: well, windows likes to hide the "details" ...
[02:57] <rabidity> More specifically the title bar
[02:57] <sethk> DethKlok, I don't understand why you don't explain what you want to _do_, rather than assuming that a particular protocol or technology is the way to do it.
[02:57] <oskude> DethKlok: snmp is just a protocol, what you do with it, is up to you... so you need a server program that monitors your system and provides the info as snmp...
[02:57] <mnepton> DethKlok: assuming that Linux is going to work like Windows, and support the same feature set, and operate using the same principles, is a flawed assumption.
[02:58] <DethKlok> sethk: is snmp already installed with ubuntu
[02:58] <mnepton> DethKlok: seth is right. the best bet is to tell us the task you want to accomplish, and let the Linux community point you to the best solution
[02:58] <sasalli> hi. how can install "app-get" to Ubuntu 6.06 ?
[02:58] <mnepton> sasalli: it's already installed
[02:58] <sethk> DethKlok, if you understood what snmp is, you wouldn't say something like that.
[02:58] <frying_fish> sasalli: it is automatically installed.
[02:58] <reon> Anyone know of a automated gui menu.lst creator  ???
[02:58] <frying_fish> and it is "apt-get" and you need to be root, or have root permissions to use it.
[02:58] <sasalli> aha, ok.
[02:58] <sasalli> ok
[02:58] <DethKlok> sethk: i just want to configure snmp to use the public community with UDP port 161
[02:59] <rabidity> When I open up Terminal Server Client in 16 bit the background is semi transparent.  How can i fix this?
[02:59] <lastnode> reon, well when you add/delete kernels from synaptic, it updates that file automatically
[02:59] <danga> how do i change my gtk theme?
[02:59] <DethKlok> sethk: thats all i know how to do inorder to make cacti work aye
[02:59] <danga> i dont use gnome
[02:59] <reon> lastnode, I just added a extra 10GB HD on which I installed PCBSD, need to add it to grub
[03:00] <oskude> DethKlok: do "apt-cache search snmp" and install what ever you want ...
[03:00] <sethk> DethKlok, that's the default port.  if you start any SNMP program it will use that port.
[03:00] <lastnode> reon, you're best off googling for PCBSD + grub
[03:00] <DethKlok> sethk: as of right now Cacti gives me SNMP error
[03:00] <sethk> DethKlok, but that isn't really what you want to do.
[03:00] <_jason> danga: gtk-theme-switch it's in the repos
[03:00] <sethk> DethKlok, snmp works by running agents on the hardware that is to be monitored.
[03:00] <sasalli> and isapp-get has graphichal interface?
[03:00] <reon> lastnode, I did but i can't even figure out which hd grub sees it as ?
[03:00] <sethk> DethKlok, you have to start the agents the monitor the things you are interested in.
[03:00] <mAIJK_> sethk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26153/ ------ There is my xorg.conf
[03:00] <danga> _jason,thanks
[03:00] <oskude> DethKlok: you do know that you first need something in ubuntu that monitors your system and sends that information over snmp ?
[03:00] <sethk> mAIJK, your xorg.conf doesn't help us.
[03:01] <mnepton> DethKlok: did you install Cacti on the Ubuntu machine? if so, how? did you ensure all the dependencies were met? "Cacti requires MySQL, PHP, RRDTool, net-snmp, and a webserver that supports PHP such as Apache or IIS. Please see the requirements section of the manual for information on how to fulfill these requirements under certain operating systems. Please use the install guide for either Unix or Windows for information about installing Cacti."
[03:01] <mAIJK_> sethk: What do we need?
[03:01] <sethk> mAIJK, your X log file may help, as I said earlier.
[03:01] <DethKlok> oskude: that is probably what im looking for
[03:01] <lastnode> reon, er grub will see it as a partition of a hard disk, like (hd0,5)
[03:01] <oskude> DethKlok: yes...
[03:01] <sethk> mAIJK, but probably all you need to do is run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and choose the "medium" difficulty level for monitor configuration.
[03:01] <DethKlok> mnepton: it works fine with the windows boxs
[03:01] <mnepton> DethKlok: it may surprise you to learn that Linux is not Windows
[03:01] <sethk> mAIJK, that will present a list of resolution/vfreq pairs, and you can just choose the ones you want.
[03:01] <sasalli> has it(app-get) graphichal interface ?
[03:01] <Dimensions> hi for one of my system i dont know its not taking the loging passwd ... i logged into failsafe mode and i am logged as root ... how can i change my user there or how do i change password there for my user ABCD ?
[03:01] <reon> lastnode, lol i have 4 installed HDs with many partitions. hard to see which one is bsd
[03:02] <rambo3> whats the opera irc server
[03:02] <_jason> Dimensions: passwd ABCD
[03:02] <sethk> Dimensions, if you are root, you can change the password for any user by:     passwd username
[03:02] <mnepton> DethKlok: if i bought a box of tampons, inserted them into my urethra, and then went to the doctor and said, "but it *works for my girlfriend!" do you think he'd say, "you're absolutely right. these tamposn are flawed?"
[03:02] <Dimensions> ahhan ... i thought i have to change to user for it
[03:02] <mAIJK_> sethk: Well, that will maybe solve my resolutionproblem but not my problem that I can't use 1600x1200 in ubuntu. The thing that happens is that the computer boots up fine and I hear the splashsound but dont get no picture.. X doesn't give me an error....
[03:02] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: i checked the cd and there is 1 mismatch, checksum failed
[03:03] <DethKlok> mnepton: the hell you talking about,
[03:03] <sethk> mAIJK, sounds like you are using a resolution that your monitor doesn't support, so it blanks, the screen.  try choosing 1600x1200 with a lower vertical frequency
[03:03] <reon> lastnode, http://wiki.pcbsd.org/index.php/PmWiki/EditingGRUBToBootPC-BSD
[03:03] <DethKlok> mnepton: cacti is installed, i can view graphs on a windows server, i want to view graphs on a linux server
[03:03] <mAIJK_> sethk: Have already tried that
[03:03] <lastnode> reon, i gotta, go, but good luck
[03:03] <mnepton> DethKlok: i'm talking about the fact that i asked you if you had installed the Linux dependencies for Cacti and your resaponse was, "it works in Windows."
[03:03] <trm> can someone refer to me a link for installing and setting up libdvdcss2 please
[03:03] <DethKlok> mnepton: i just want to know how to get that working
[03:03] <mAIJK_> sethk: 1600x1200 @ 60Hz
[03:03] <mnepton> "Cacti requires MySQL, PHP, RRDTool, net-snmp, and a webserver that supports PHP such as Apache or IIS. Please see the requirements section of the manual for information on how to fulfill these requirements under certain operating systems. Please use the install guide for either Unix or Windows for information about installing Cacti."
[03:03] <reader> how I can PrtSc in ubuntu and save it in gimp?
[03:03] <mAIJK_> sethk: I run 1600x1200 @ 85Hz in windows
[03:04] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: oh, that could be the problem... could you do a md5sum check on the downloaded image ? if you still have it
[03:04] <collin> i installed kubuntu-desktop and when I try to start kde is says that "it could not start kstartupconfig check your installation" please help
[03:04] <sethk> mAIJK, that's quite odd, because the box I'm using right now is doing 1600x1200@70hz using nvidia.
[03:04] <reon> lastnode, thx
[03:04] <lastnode> np
[03:04] <mnepton> DethKlok: one last time. MySQL, PHP, RRDTool, net-snmp, and Apache. you installedf all those. on Ubuntu. and configured them.
[03:04] <mAIJK_> sethk:  I know, very strange..
[03:04] <defrysk> mAIJK, tru . same on my box , better get over it ;)
[03:04] <sethk> mAIJK, let's take a look at the X log.  It will tell us whether X "thinks" it is displaying at 1600x1200, or not.
[03:04] <sethk> defrysk, no, I have several boxes doing 1600x1200 with nvidia.  no reason for it not to work.
[03:04] <DethKlok> mnepton: Once again sudo apt-get install cacti
[03:05] <mnepton> DethKlok: so now go configure the software
[03:05] <oskude> MaKaTiGuY: heres howto do md5sum on windows http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/using_md5sums.html and here are the md5sums http://ie.releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-releases/6.06/MD5SUMS
[03:05] <mAIJK_> sethk: I have changed to 1280x1024 now, but wait a second and we will find som old errors
[03:05] <mnepton> DethKlok: apt-get is not smart enough to edit your config files to set things up exactly how you want them.
[03:05] <defrysk> yes my nvidia works fine on 1600x1200 just it only works on 65 hz
[03:05] <collin> i installed kubuntu-desktop and when I try to start kde is says that "it could not start kstartupconfig check your installation" please help
[03:05] <MaKaTiGuY> oskude: ok
[03:05] <mAIJK_> sethk: Were do I find X logs?
[03:05] <DethKlok> mnepton: cacti php all that other stuff working but when i go into cacti to setup a device it says my ubuntu box has a SNMP error
[03:05] <sethk> mAIJK, configure for both 1600x1200 and 1280x1024.  then the log will tell you the results for each mode.
[03:05] <sethk> mAIJK, in /var/log
[03:05] <sethk> mAIJK, do ls -l /var/logX*   it's usually Xorg.0.log
[03:06] <mnepton> DethKlok: so find that exact error. write it down. go ask Cacti people how that issue is resolved.
[03:06] <DethKlok> mnepton: lol its a snmp error
[03:06] <oskude> DethKlok: thats cause you DONT have any snmp server running in ubuntu. cacti is just a frontend (afaik)
[03:06] <DethKlok> oskude: so what is a good snmp server
[03:07] <oskude> DethKlok: no idea, never used one
[03:07] <mnepton> DethKlok: oh, right. i'm sure Cacti users have never heard of an SNMP error and would be unable to help you resolve SNMP errors with Cacti.
[03:07] <rleathers> I want to run 8MB RAM (My board and PAE CPU support this) and I want to use 32 bit Ubuntu - not 64 bit version.   Is there a bigmem kernel for Ubuntu?  or is it ok to take the bigmem kernel from Sarge and use it ?
[03:07] <Zippy> hello !
[03:07] <mnepton> DethKlok: go talk to Cacti users. they actually use this product.
[03:07] <KenSentMe> collin: is this a fresh install of kubuntu, or kubuntu-desktop in Ubuntu?
[03:07] <mnepton> rleathers: 8MB is not hugeram, dude ;)
[03:08] <Dimensions> Is it possible to delete the default user in ubuntu if one logged as root in failsafe mode or just rename that default user ?
[03:08] <collin> kubuntu-desktop in ubuntu
[03:08] <Zippy> Can i download Linux msn witch out being "master" on the comptuer????
[03:08] <defrysk> rleathers, any kernel above i386 has bigmem
[03:08] <defrysk> in ubuntu
[03:08] <mnepton> Zippy: use GAIM
[03:08] <defrysk> afaIk
[03:08] <Zippy> what do u mean GAIM??
[03:08] <mnepton> Zippy: go look in the apps menu
[03:09] <Chousuke> Zippy: do you mean you can't use sudo?
[03:09] <Dimensions> Zippy:  why not use GAIM (u can use it for msn yahoo irc etc ) at same time
[03:09] <rleathers> great news - well, it only recognizes 4GB RAM, even with the server image installed
[03:09] <mAIJK_> sethk: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26154/ ----- It dont report an error?
[03:09] <Dimensions> Is it possible to delete the default user in ubuntu if one logged as root in failsafe mode or just rename that default user ?
[03:09] <frying_fish> rleathers: 8MB?? do you mean 8GB??
[03:09] <rabidity> When I open up Terminal Server Client in 16 bit the background is semi transparent.  How can i fix this?
[03:09] <jory_> is there any firewall launched in ubuntu 6.06 by default? where to find out and how to switch everything concerned off?
[03:09] <frying_fish> and if so, you should be able to compile your own kernel with the very highmem (64GB) option
[03:09] <rleathers> bah - yes 8GB - not MB
[03:09] <Zippy> Dimeniins it the same thing??
[03:09] <collin> KenSentMe: i used synaptic and installed it and I chose kdm as default, when I went to sign in it said problem with kstartupconfig
[03:10] <Chousuke> rleathers: it would probably be better to install the 64bit version and set up a 32 bit chroot
[03:10] <Dimensions> Zippy:  go to Applications --> Internet --> Gaim ... yes Zippy it is same thing ...
[03:10] <KenSentMe> collin: !firewall > jory_
[03:10] <rleathers> yuck
[03:10] <Zippy> THX YA DUDE!
[03:10] <jory_> thx KenSentMe
[03:10] <Dimensions> yw Zippy ...
[03:10] <collin> KenSentMe: what does that mean?
[03:10] <Zippy> i am swedich 11 year old so its little hard but thx
[03:10] <frying_fish> Zippy: you will need to be "master" or "root" as it is known, to install any application outside of ~/ and amsn is as simple as apt-get install amsn away
[03:10] <rleathers> that seems a bit convoluted when I can just use bigmem with most any other distro
[03:10] <Dimensions> Zippy:  aint u using IRC from GAIM ?
[03:11] <frying_fish> jory_: no firewall on by default
[03:11] <defrysk> xchat
[03:11] <KenSentMe> collin: good question :P. I don't know that much about kubuntu. Maybe you can ask i #kubuntu channel
[03:11] <sethk> jory_, run iptable with the list option.  it should show nothing, if no filtering is occuring
[03:11] <frying_fish> Dimensions: not everyone uses GAIM for irc. I for example use xchat
[03:11] <rabidity> Is there a way to stop a window from going "underneath" the top panel?
[03:11] <collin> KenSentMe: okay, thanks
[03:11] <rabidity> More specifically the title bar
[03:11] <collin> exit
[03:11] <Zippy> No i dont think so...
[03:11] <defrysk> irc on gaim is not all that I think
[03:11] <Dimensions> ahhan .... yeah in gaim only one problem is for irc that it doesn't accept some commands on dalnet etc ...
[03:12] <defrysk> xchat is a nice irc client
[03:12] <Zippy> i ant oratr i speak to dad leather :P XD
[03:12] <kronos> hello... can someone help me on how to make migration data from pop to imap ?
[03:12] <jory_> It shows chain input, forward and output something, with no details, and that's it. So no firewall?
[03:13] <Dimensions> sethk: do u know how do i delete default user in ubuntu or just rename it ?
[03:13] <jory_> yeah, xchat is quite nice
[03:13] <Zippy> Ngon Svensk??
[03:13] <sethk> Dimensions, use the usermod command
[03:13] <sethk> Dimensions, changing a name is a questionable idea, because you would have to change other things, such as the home directory name.
[03:13] <Dimensions> sethk:  how ... ? i mean it will create any new user or rename old one ?
[03:14] <Dimensions> ummm...
[03:14] <sethk> useradd creates a new user.  userdel deletes one.  usermod modifies an existing user.
[03:14] <Dimensions> thanks sethk ...
[03:14] <sethk> Dimensions, usermod -l can be used to change the name
[03:14] <Zippy> SEEYA ALL
[03:14] <Shorthorns> bye
[03:15] <ws248443> !grub
[03:15] <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
[03:16] <kronos> can anyone help me on how to migrate data from pop to imap ?
[03:16] <mnepton> Dimensions: just create a new user and copy the data over from the old user's ~/
[03:17] <savvas> how many terminal torrent client application exist? i know rtorrent, any others?
[03:18] <mnepton> savvas: BitTorrent, BitTornado ...
[03:18] <Marlun> Why is there no libapache2-mod-dav? Only a libapache-mod-dav, does Apache2 use the same as 1.*?
[03:18] <savvas> ah
[03:18] <savvas> mnepton: does it support to choose which files to download?
[03:18] <mnepton> savvas: it does
[03:19] <mnepton> (BTornado)
[03:19] <savvas> um do you have a link? :)
[03:19] <savvas> that's the name?
[03:19] <mnepton> savvas: sudo apt-get install bittornado :)
[03:19] <savvas> eh, i like to read before installing something :P
[03:19] <kronos> can anyone help me on how to migrate data from pop to imap ?
[03:19] <rabidity> Is there a way to stop a window from going "underneath" the top panel?
[03:19] <rabidity> More specifically the title bar
[03:19] <Dethklok> oskude: installed snmpd and changed the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf to have rocommunity public and SNMP error is gone off cacti thank you for your help
[03:20] <mnepton> savvas: the website is sadly uninformative. but basically, it's a curses torrent client written in Python. and with a few more features than the mailine BT client.
[03:21] <savvas> oh ok thank you :)
[03:21] <mnepton> savvas: how's your httpd-fu? could you get apache and php running on your local machine without problems?
[03:21] <savvas> well i suppose
[03:21] <savvas> there's always the xampp package if i can't :P
[03:22] <mnepton> savvas: i use this. it uses btornado as the backend, and is easily administerable from a browser. - http://www.torrentflux.com/
[03:22] <savvas> mnepton: about that web frontend.. where can i find that?
[03:22] <savvas> oh
[03:22] <mnepton> savvas: see above, and hence my question about your httpd skills (or lack thereof) ;)
[03:23] <savvas> mmm so i see :P
[03:23] <savvas> thanks a lot :)
[03:23] <sethk> kronos, what do you want to migrate, specifically?  Obviously you can't migrate folders, since they only exist in imap
[03:23] <rabidity> When I open up Terminal Server Client in 16 bit the background is semi transparent.  How can i fix this?
[03:24] <sethk> rabidity, I'm not ignoring you, I just don't know the answer.
[03:25] <sethk> rabidity, you said "in 16 bit mode", which sounds like you don't see the problem at a higher color setting.  why not just use the higher color setting?
[03:26] <kronos> sethk i believe that i want to migrate the mailboxes
[03:26] <webben> In "Network Settings" is the "Domain name" also the name of the Windows workgroup?
[03:26] <rabidity> The only time i dont see the problem is at 256 color
[03:26] <rabidity> which is very ugly
[03:27] <webben> And is there a Gnome GUI tool for configuring a Samba server?
[03:27] <rabidity> could it be something with xgl?
[03:27] <wickedpuppy> webben, nope .. there is swat though ...
[03:31] <physicsnick> gah
[03:31] <physicsnick> i just set up svn, and i want to set up passwords for svnserve
[03:32] <physicsnick> how do i generate the hashes?
[03:33] <sethk> kronos, that would be imap server specific, so you would have to start there.  It's been months since I did it, and I don't really remember a lot of the specifics.  I have some work stuff to do here; when I get a break I'll see if I have any useful notes from when I installed imap.
[03:35] <easytiger> should this entry run at 34 minutes past the hour? by cron : 34 * * * * /root/rss-tf-grab/rss.pl

[03:46] <milan> hi im trying to listen to an online radio station
[03:46] <milan> they have a .pls stream
[03:46] <milan> from shoutcast
[03:47] <milan> but xmms and rythmbox won't play it
[03:47] <oskude> milan: i use "streamtuner" and "xmms"
[03:47] <boink> can you use xmms for anything else?
[03:47] <milan> yes
[03:47] <milan> for mp3
[03:47] <milan> and flac
[03:47] <boink> ok .. then xmms should work fine with the pls file
[03:48] <milan> but it doesnt :P
[03:48] <boink> try opening the file with xmms
[03:48] <boink> if that doesn't work, paste the contents out of the file into xmms under url
[03:48] <boink> who knows .. maybe the server is down on that stream
[03:48] <milan> no it isnt :P
[03:48] <milan> cause i can play on windows
[03:49] <[GuS] > people, there is a way to add auto. a Windows boot to the grub?
[03:49] <milan> lol
[03:49] <milan> tried again and now it works :P
[03:49] <milan> thanks
[03:49] <milan> weird :P
[03:50] <oskude> milan: didnt you know internet is beta ? ;)
[03:53] <tkp> I'm really struggeling getting nxserver installed
[03:53] <tkp> I'm following the instructions here:
[03:53] <tkp> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[03:53] <DarkWizzard> hello to all
[03:53] <tkp> I'm supposed to add the line "AuthorizedKeysFile /usr/NX/home/nx/.ssh/authorized_keys2" to /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[03:53] <DarkWizzard> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26160/
[03:53] <tkp> however there is no such file at /usr/NX/home/nx/.ssh/authorized_keys
[03:53] <`6og> can anyone recomend a scriptabe IRC client?
[03:54] <cl187> xchat
[03:54] <tkp>  /usr/NX/home/nx/ is just an empty directory
[03:54] <tkp> I have tried following various sets of instructions...
[03:54] <`6og> er
[03:54] <`6og> *bittorent
[03:54] <tkp> all of them rekon that file should exist
[03:54] <tkp> but it most definately does not
[03:54] <`6og> can anyone recomend a scriptabe *bittorent* client? (sorry)
[03:55] <djuuss> Quick question: what is the apt-get packagename for the kernel source?
[03:55] <siXy> which ver of edgy is more up to date? knot 3 or beta?
[03:56] <n8k99> beta
[03:56] <tkp> and why the f*ck does this hapeen:
[03:56] <tkp> sudo cd /usr/NX/
[03:56] <tkp> sudo: cd: command not found
[03:56] <siXy> thanks
[03:56] <tkp> cd not found!!
[03:56] <tkp> wtf??
[03:56] <mnepton> djuuss: sudo apt-get install linux-source
[03:56] <djuuss> thx mneptop
[03:56] <djuuss> 0.0
[03:56] <n8k99> siXy: generlly the 'knot' then the Beta then the RC - release candidate
[03:57] <n8k99> siXy: and finally the release!!!!
[03:57] <siXy> yeah knots are new on me which is what threw me :)
[03:57] <DarkWizzard> is anyone not to busy to help me
[03:57] <DarkWizzard> ?
[03:57] <DarkWizzard>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26160/
[03:57] <mnepton> tkp: does it work from another shell?
[03:57] <tkp> nope
[03:58] <n8k99> siXy: they like to be a bit humorous with Dapper Drake they used Flights not knots
[03:58] <mAIJK> Hi, I have done the nvidia-xconfig --separate-x-screens command and it work very good! I get a own X server on my TV! But how do I change the PAL settings??
[03:58] <tkp> cd does not work with sudo infront of it
[03:58] <mnepton> tkp: oh
[03:58] <mnepton> tkp: cd is not an external command. it's internal to a shell. so you can;t sudo it.
[03:58] <tkp> I see
[03:59] <siXy> yeah kinda cute but confuses idiots like me :)
[04:00] <suprsonic> is it possible to mount an nfs share in recovery mode?
[04:00] <suprsonic> using the install cd
[04:00] <siXy> btw: why not just sudo su then cd?
[04:00] <djuuss> mnepton, where does apt-get install linux-source install the source to? im expecting it in /usr/src but its not..
[04:00] <tkp> ok. so I got past thhat, only to come to another hurdle.
[04:00] <tkp> sudo /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --status
[04:00] <tkp> NX> 900 Bad owner or permissions on /home/tom/.ssh/config
[04:01] <tkp> it's set to 600
[04:01] <tkp> which (I have read) should be correct
[04:01] <mnepton> djuuss: did the linux-source metapackage actually also grab the latest kernel source?
[04:01] <drazet> i can't install ubuntu 6.06 because my hard disk is sata2
[04:02] <drazet> how can i do?
[04:03] <kmaynard> drazet, i've got dapper running on my dual SATA server
[04:03] <kmaynard> with raid 1
[04:03] <kmaynard> you may wanna try either the server disk or the alternate installer disk
[04:03] <payo2000> hello
[04:04] <djuuss> mnepton it grabbed linux-source-2.6.15
[04:04] <drazet> kmaynard, i use alternate cd
[04:04] <payo2000> can anyone help me get my cd-rom to work?
[04:04] <djuuss> theres a linux-source-2.6.15.tar.gz in /usr/src.. should i extract that?
[04:04] <A-L-P-H-A> I'm looking to map my "windows key + D" to minimize all applications, and focusto the desktop... however when I use keymapper, it doesn't like it, and only maps the windows key, not a combined keypress.  Anyone know if this is possible?
[04:05] <stefg> payo2000: what exactly isn't working?
[04:05] <nemo_work> So, I have a buddy who gave ubuntu a shot, unguided.
[04:05] <kmaynard> drazet, you may want to try server
[04:05] <djuuss> mnepton, not tar.gz, tar.bz2
[04:05] <payo2000> it doesn't seem to be there
[04:06] <nemo_work> He claimed the partition resize failed, so he wiped windows on the machine and installed ubuntu straight. Was wondering if perhaps a defrag of NTFS prior to attempt to resize would have helped.
[04:06] <kmaynard> drazet, trust me, i got it to work
[04:06] <psyoptik> I'm having issues setting up a NX server on my box. sshd is setup correctly (tested with putty). adding a user to the nxserver results in a half completed task. this is the server output from /usr/NX/bin/nxserver --useradd psyoptik. http://ubuntu.pastebin.ca/196327
[04:06] <azzco> I'm trying to create a seperate /home partition.. I copied my home folder to my new partition but some of them belong to root now... how do I change this?
[04:06] <kmaynard> nemo_work, i've always heard you should defrag before you resize
[04:06] <payo2000> places>>computer>>cd-rom1
[04:06] <drazet> kmaynard,  ok ,3x
[04:06] <payo2000> unable to mount
[04:06] <stefg> payo2000: can you paste the output of 'cat /etc/fstab' to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ please
[04:06] <nemo_work> kmaynard: so have I - he said the Ubuntu installer should have mentioned this, then.
[04:07] <nemo_work> Also, he said he couldn't figure out how to play DVDs, either in totem or vlc and after following some script for ubuntu he found somewhere.
[04:07] <kmaynard> nemo_work, resizing partitions is not a light matter...buddy needs to do some homework next time
[04:08] <nemo_work> also, apparently it couldn't go beyond 1024x768 - and windows could.  I said it was probably that windows was doing higher at 16bit, as on my wife's laptop.  He said he tried 16bit *shrug*
[04:08] <kmaynard> and as for DVDs, try installing codecs with automatix...ubuntu cant legally distribute dvd playback out of the box
[04:08] <nemo_work> so, on the basis of these frustrations, he erased ubuntu and went back to windows
[04:08] <nemo_work> kmaynard: that may have been what he tried - I had explained the legal issues ahead of time.
[04:08] <kmaynard> nemo_work, what's your point? you looking for advice, or a place to b17ch about ubuntu?
[04:09] <payo2000> done
[04:09] <Czubek> Hi all.
[04:09] <nemo_work> kmaynard: that's an unpleasant attitude. I'm merely stating his problems so I can figure out what they were and try and resolve them, since it bugs me to lose a, erm, convert.
[04:09] <kmaynard> i maybe coulda been typing something productive for the last few minutes
[04:09] <Czubek> Where should i go when I wish to make translation for ekiga?
[04:09] <stefg> payo2000:  you get a link, please post it here
[04:10] <payo2000> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26162/
[04:10] <nemo_work> kmaynard: I had recommended ubuntu as the friendliest distro for a newbie.  he's a .NET dev with a heavy windows bias, so, well, just was trying to get him to try a few other things.
[04:10] <kmaynard> not a bad attitude, just wanna know where you're coming from. all these problems are avoidable if you ask for help
[04:10] <kmaynard> nemo_work, tell him to google for the mono project
[04:10] <nemo_work> kmaynard: that may well be - his attitude was, I think, that it shouldn't be that hard to figure out.  wondering if he was missing stuff in the install process or guides.
[04:11] <kmaynard> dude, windows is hard in some areas. it all takes work
[04:11] <nemo_work> kmaynard: and, I'm on here to see if there's a nice page that covers the issues he brought up. the ubuntu wiki is being unresponsive.
[04:11] <kmaynard> ubuntu wiki got dugg earlier
[04:11] <stefg> payo2000: looks fine so far... what kind of drive controllers do you have? IDE, SCSI or SATA?
[04:11] <kmaynard> not that it was fast to begin with
[04:11] <nemo_work> kmaynard: that could be too, but I've been using linux for over a decade, so my attitude is a little skewed.
[04:11] <kmaynard> 5+ years here, i understand
[04:11] <nemo_work> things may seem easier than they should be, so trying not to be hard on him, and just learn from his experience
[04:12] <kmaynard> everything is hard when it's new
[04:12] <nemo_work> esp since another coworker will be trying it soon too
[04:12] <payo2000> SATA - i think
[04:12] <kmaynard> aight, one word: automatix. it brings a lot to the table--dvd, mp3, and other media playback, plus some other goodies
[04:12] <ChaosFan> nemo_work: should he really switch to linux, being a .NET dev? that's kind of... contraproductive...
[04:13] <kmaynard> its not officially supported, but man it makes life easier
[04:13] <nemo_work> ChaosFan: not switching - just wanted him to try another operating system.
[04:13] <nemo_work> ChaosFan: open up his horizons a bit :)
[04:13] <kmaynard> counterproductive /nit-pick
[04:13] <nemo_work> ChaosFan: he does have multiple machines.
[04:13] <ChaosFan> kmaynard: sorry, not a native speaker...
[04:14] <kmaynard> nemo_work, he should have split his hd size before he re-installed windows
[04:14] <payo2000> cd seems to be SCSI - sorry!
[04:14] <ChaosFan> nemo_work: well, that could be a good idea ;) maybe he quit'
[04:14] <ChaosFan> quits .NET for good
[04:14] <kmaynard> ChaosFan, my apologies :)
[04:14] <nemo_work> kmaynard: alrighty. will check on the automatix thing - he may not have used it.  what about the resolution? is it likely he screwed up there?
[04:14] <nemo_work> is there a graphical tool in ubuntu for configuring graphics card?
[04:14] <stefg> payo2000: i think that, too :-) Have you verified that /media/cdrom0 is valid as mountpoint? You could paste 'lspci' and 'dmesg'-output, too tohttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:14] <nemo_work> ChaosFan: there is actually a decent linux mono ide...
[04:14] <kmaynard> nemo_work, depends on his graphics adapter...he may want to get a cheapo $50 nvidia card at wally world
[04:15] <payo2000> i'll try
[04:15] <nemo_work> kmaynard: yeah, was just wondering about the "it works in windows" bit - that's actually pretty darn rare.
[04:15] <stefg> payo2000: but first tell me, if you get any error message if you type 'sudo mount /dev/scd0' in a terminal
[04:15] <ChaosFan> nemo_work: i know, but .NET... what is it good for? M$' try on getting it's share off the java-boom...
[04:15] <nemo_work> kmaynard: I mean, the linux drivers may suck at certain accelerations sometimes, but usually resolutions are same
[04:15] <oxbat> hello
[04:16] <kmaynard> get a little 128 or 256 nvidia card...ati drivers suck
[04:16] <kmaynard> no need to spend a buttload of money on it
[04:16] <nemo_work> ChaosFan: heh. even perl is getting to the act with parrot...
[04:17] <kmaynard> nemo_work, sorry if i sounded a little snotty before, but your friend should be able and willing to do a little homework too. codependant n00bs are a pain. willing-to-learn n00bs are great tho
[04:17] <oxbat> administartor,may i talk something about sex?

[04:17] <payo2000> does not exist
[04:17] <nemo_work> kmaynard: well, in this case, I'd be more than willing to help him, but he doesn't even really want that. for him, it is more a test of linux' user-friendliness as opposed to windows.
[04:18] <nemo_work> and, well, installing new hardware seems silly. linux has a much larger hardware range.

[04:18] <stefg> payo2000: please be exact!
[04:18] <nemo_work> kmaynard: the automatix thing, do you have a link to a page about it, I could send him to it - ask him if he had used it.

[04:22] <gimpii> quarlity?
[04:22] <tkp> kmaynard: universe? not as far as I know... where's that?
[04:22] <kmaynard> psyoptik, dpkg-reconfigure nxserver

[04:24] <kmaynard> uncomment that line

[04:24] <sasalli> i couldnt acces
[04:24] <HumanPrototype> hi
[04:24] <tkp> it is uncommented
[04:24] <gimpii> Doesnt make since why it would stop all if a sudden after 3 days of use?
[04:24] <kmaynard> tkp, is this a server?
[04:24] <HumanPrototype> how does apt know what architecture my pc is using?
[04:24] <stefg> payo2000: I see... somehow your driver doesn't get loaded and the device-node isn't created. Paste the output of dmesg and lsmod to psatebin to let me check what doesn't get loaded
[04:25] <tkp> kmaynard: yes and no. it's not running the Ubuntu server (as far as I remember)
[04:25] <oxbat> guys,we need some funny talks,do not so serious,ok?if you have some problem please google it..this place is used to chat!see??
[04:25] <kmaynard> tkp, so what was the package again?
[04:25] <sasalli> is this working http://ubuntu.compiz.net  i couldnt acces
[04:25] <tkp> well I want the python xmlrpc interface
[04:25] <gimpii> I stepped on my cat
[04:25] <payo2000> what is psatebin?
[04:25] <gimpii> and it barked
[04:25] <tkp> I'm not sure of the package name in ubuntu
[04:25] <oxbat> deb
[04:26] <kmaynard> tkp, this is a broad search, but:  http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin//search_packages.pl?version=dapper&subword=1&exact=&arch=any&releases=all&case=insensitive&keywords=python&searchon=names
[04:26] <tkp> hang on.. I see the file there already in /usr/lib/python2.4/xmlrpclib.py
[04:26] <bobjones_> hi all, i updated my dapper to edgy the day the beta was released.  But the kernel still seems to have problems with jmicron pata and ich8.  Ive looked though the bug pages, and it seems like it was fixed, but no updated kernel apears to be avaliable to me? how do i get a daily build of the kernel without compiling it myself?
[04:26] <tkp> thats odd. python can't find it
[04:26] <slop> how do i add a user to a group?
[04:26] <kmaynard> beyond apt-get, im lost with python
[04:27] <oxbat> useradd
[04:27] <kmaynard> slop, vi /etc/group

[04:30] <psyoptik> kmaynard, what would you suggest to check for? I just tried to connect to my box from another computer on the network via ssh using putty and connected just fine...
[04:30] <Dreamglider> it works ! :))
[04:30] <babwe> wine client error:39: version mismatch 0/246.
[04:30] <babwe> Your wineserver binary was not upgraded correctly,
[04:30] <babwe> or you have an older one somewhere in your PATH.
[04:30] <babwe> Or maybe the wrong wineserver is still running?
[04:30] <oxbat> I wonder why!what's the meaning of the message'can't access the tty'
[04:30] <kmaynard> psyoptik, so ssh works ok? did you make any changes to its default config?
[04:31] <payo2000> sorry stefg - i'm not sure where to find the dmsg file
[04:31] <bobjones_> oxbat you have an intel 965 mb?

[04:38] <Sir_Brizz> hey,speak

[04:39] <stefg> payo2000: i got disconnected, have you pasted the output of 'lsmod' yet?
[04:39] <DireFog> anyone here who got experience with deploying ubuntu via FAI?
[04:39] <payo2000> yep: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26166/

[04:40] <kantlivelong> how can i add a group to a user?
[04:40] <dragoncham88> I'm trying to upgrad from Breezy to Dapper. Everytime I get to step 5 on the installer the installer crashes. Are other folks having this problem?
[04:41] <sasalli> always connection timed out
[04:41] <oxbat> hey,speak,bobjones_
[04:41] <psyoptik> anyone had experience with ssh configurations? it is possible that ssh is preventing my NX server from connecting to itself...
[04:41] <segfault_> s_spiff, man is the cmd to load man pages on cmds etc, this will give the info u need if u read them
[04:41] <kantlivelong> how can i add a group to a user?
[04:41] <DireFog> user to group?
[04:41] <DireFog> man adduser...
[04:42] <s_spiff> segfault_, wanted to know what do I put in the <options> <pass> <dump> part for each partition? considering i want full read/write access.?
[04:42] <oxbat> hey,speak,are you in?
[04:42] <segfault_> s_spiff, i understand the question read man mount for the info u need
[04:42] <stefg> payo2000: the good news is that everything looks like it should.... driver is there, but cdrom isn't seen at startup. The not so good news is that it might be a hardware-problem (your system is ooold ... :-) ) Have you checked all cable connections recently? can you boot a CD ?
[04:42] <kantlivelong> DireFog: well the user is in like 20 groups and i want to add a single group to the acct.. can usermod do it?
[04:42] <s_spiff> segfault_, doin the same. thanks.
[04:43] <bobjones_> oxbat then use the install cd and rescue yr install, and stop telling me to speak its quite rude
[04:43] <MystaMax> if my lamp install is serving out perl scripts as plain txt files, what PACKAGE am I missing?
[04:43] <payo2000> yes - I installed ubuntu from the cd
[04:43] <segfault_> MystaMax, u may need to enable perl for apache
[04:43] <sidny4> oxbat, not sure what happened but I think your best bet would be to install from scratch
[04:43] <payo2000> old but beautiful ;-)
[04:43] <vladas> hello
[04:44] <DireFog> anyway, I want to automatically install Ubuntu from a network boot. That works so far, but I end up with only a root user and no normal user. Is there a way to get a nice graphical user creation after the first boot?
[04:44] <bobjones_> hi all, i updated my dapper to edgy the day the beta was released.  But the kernel still seems to have problems with jmicron pata and ich8.  Ive looked though the bug pages, and it seems like it was fixed, but no updated kernel apears to be avaliable to me? how do i get a daily build of the kernel without compiling it myself?
[04:44] <kantlivelong> DireFog: ah is gpasswd
[04:44] <payo2000> can i force it to use a different mount point?
[04:44] <stefg> payo2000: hmmm... you have a breezy install CD, haven't you?
[04:44] <payo2000> yep
[04:44] <MystaMax> segfault_, thanks, you have any idea how to do that? or can you point me in the right direction?
[04:44] <segfault_> bobjones_, ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:44] <vladas> i've installed skype, but it doesn't start(well, it started oK first time), then I've installed Kopete, it also doesn't work. What's wrong?
[04:44] <bobjones_> segfault_ tnx
[04:45] <DireFog> kantlivelong: adduser <user> <group> isn't what you want?
[04:45] <stefg> payo2000: can you download a dapper Desktop-CD ?
[04:45] <payo2000> should i burn a newer version and re-install?
[04:45] <dragoncham88> segfault, what is #ubuntu+1 for?
[04:45] <payo2000> yep - i'll try that and get back to  you if i have more problems
[04:45] <HeathenDan> for the next version, i presume
[04:45] <payo2000> thanks for all your help
[04:45] <vladas> anyone?
[04:45] <payo2000> doei
[04:45] <segfault_> MystaMax, in dir /etc/apache2, make sure mods-enabled has links to perl items in mods-available
[04:45] <kantlivelong> DireFog: no :( i got it tho.. needed to use gpasswd
[04:45] <sidny4> vlades, what kind of error are you getting?
[04:46] <segfault_> MystaMax, also i believe u need to restart apache after that
[04:47] <segfault_> dragoncham88, questions on the next release
[04:47] <stefg> payo2000: it's a good idea to use Dapper anyway... i think you ran into a bug with the breezy kernel. It's fixable, but difficult for me to figure out what exactly is wrong... I last touched a SCSI system 5 years ago or so. I'd try to reinstall Dapper and see if the problem persists
[04:48] <Arrick> hey guys an gals
[04:48] <psyoptik> I'm having problems installing my NX server. I get a "connectiong timed out" error when trying to connect to the local host (127.0.0.1). The output from the install is here: http://ubuntu.pastebin.ca/196342. should the ip of the default connect host be different? is something wrong with my ssh config. I can connect to this box via ssh on another computer just fine.
[04:48] <gimpy_> hey
[04:48] <MystaMax> segfault_, ah ok i will take a look now, thanks.
[04:49] <segfault_> np
[04:49] <gimpy_> anybody know why it tells me that app-get is an unknown command?
[04:49] <Arrick> I know this is a Ubuntu Support channel, but I have a question. I have a knoppic LiveCD, and I would like to know how to install this CD onto a HD, so I dont have to have it in the CDROM all the time, is there anyone with experience with that kind of stuff here?
[04:49] <segfault_> gimpy_, apt-get
[04:49] <MystaMax> gimpy_, its apt=get
[04:49] <sidny4> ok, I've sshed into my linux box at home and am using irssi, how do i get back to the terminal yet keep irssi open?
[04:49] <MystaMax> woops apt-get
[04:49] <gimpy_> lol
[04:49] <gimpy_> thx
[04:49] <Arrick> knoppic=knoppix
[04:49] <gimpy_> I'm retarded
[04:49] <sidny4> a friend of mine said something about a command called screen
[04:50] <|rt|_> sidny4: use screen
[04:50] <segfault_> Arrick, ask in #knoppix
[04:50] <sidny4> !screen
[04:50] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[04:50] <|rt|> sidny4: if you run screen then run irssi in it you can use "ctrl+a d" to detatch from the screen
[04:50] <|rt|> then run screen -r to reattach
[04:51] <dragoncham88> did anyone have problem with dapper installer?
[04:51] <wickedpuppy> no...
[04:51] <gimpy_> What problem are you speakomh of?
[04:51] <gimpy_> speaking*
[04:51] <bobjones_> dragoncham88 i had several, what problems?
[04:52] <Arrick> segfault_ I would, but I tend to get answered in here occassionally
[04:52] <dragoncham88> gimp_ , it goes until step 5 and then crash with no error message.
[04:52] <HumanPrototype> dragoncham88, if it wont install then try the alternate cd
[04:52] <sidny4> ok, thanks |rt|
[04:52] <segfault_> Arrick, this is a channel for ubuntu its unlikely anyone herre will be able to help u install knoppix
[04:53] <segfault_> Arrick, furthermore, irrc there are README files on the cd about this
[04:53] <bobjones_> dragoncham88 is step 5 something to do with mirrors?
[04:53] <segfault_> irrc=iirc
[04:53] <boink> doesn't knoppix have its own channel?
[04:53] <dragoncham88> HumanPrototype, what is the alternate cd
[04:53] <segfault_> boink, yes but Arrick wants to ask knoppix questions here for some odd reason
[04:54] <savvas> i try to install some gnome themes from gnome-look.org but it says format invalid
[04:54] <boink> oddd
[04:54] <savvas> is there an alternate theme manager?
[04:54] <dragoncham88> bobjones, i don't think so. I had problem with checksum erarlier, tho.
[04:54] <nemo_work> kmaynard: one more bit of info from my friend.  when I suggested HW issues for graphics card, he claimed that he had googled online, found people with similar issues
[04:54] <nemo_work> he says he has an ATI card, and claimes fedora core had no such resolution issues.
[04:55] <gimpy_> Whats a good anti-virus? any recommendations?
[04:55] <sidny4> alright, it worked
[04:55] <nemo_work> doesn't remember which core he used. he thinks 4 or 5 (I'm betting 4 since 5 was just recently released)
[04:55] <nemo_work> gimpy_: ... for scanning windows machines?
[04:55] <gimpy_> no
[04:55] <gimpy_> ubuntu
[04:55] <segfault_> gimpy_, clamav
[04:55] <gimpy_> ok
[04:55] <gimpy_> thc
[04:55] <nemo_work> I use McAffee for Linux personally
[04:55] <gimpy_> thx*
[04:56] <gimpy_> free?
[04:56] <nemo_work> aye, although they do nag you about licensing
[04:56] <vladas> sidny4
[04:56] <segfault_> gimpy_, yes and in repos
[04:56] <vladas> the thing is, i don't get no error
[04:56] <vladas> i mean i get no error:)
[04:56] <boink> you don't need that, gimpy
[04:56] <nemo_work> gimpy_: out of curiosity, why would you need antivirus?
[04:56] <vladas> it just doesn't work when i start it
[04:56] <vladas> no sign at all
[04:56] <gimpy_> for protection?
[04:56] <boink> you don't need that, gimpy
[04:57] <gimpy_> <= windows user
[04:57] <boink> that's why people use linux .. no viruses
[04:57] <nemo_work> kmaynard: could be this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:57] <boink> no spyware, etc
[04:57] <gimpy_> ;p;
[04:57] <gimpy_> lol*
[04:57] <nemo_work> there are a couple of viruses I've heard of, but mostly proof of concept stuff.
[04:57] <boink> so enjoy it :)
[04:57] <nemo_work> no real exploit vectors out there.
[04:57] <gimpy_> Ok
[04:57] <boink> not yet .. who knows, maybe someday.
[04:57] <gimpy_> what about firewall?
[04:57] <bobjones_> dragoncham88 if you have another pc, when the install crashes it runs a small web server with the crash log, you may be able to enter the ip of the pc in a browser to see the log and fix it.  otherwise i also sjust the alternate cd, it lets you do the install from the console, still very easy
[04:57] <boink> gimpy: there's iptables
[04:58] <nemo_work> actually, I'd pity the poor fool who tried to write a worm that would work consistently across all linux distros :)  joys of lack of monoculture
[04:58] <segfault_> gimpy_, get shorewall, or learn iptables
[04:58] <boink> if you're box is directly connected to the internet, you need a firewall
[04:58] <boink> is your box behind a router?
[04:58] <gimpy_> Yup
[04:58] <vladas> anyone
[04:58] <boink> don't need a firewall
[04:58] <vladas> how can i fix that problem?
[04:58] <gimpy_> a crappy one, but yes
[04:58] <dragoncham88> bobjones, what is the alternate cd?
[04:58] <nemo_work> gimpy_: ... behind a router *and* on a local IP address right? :)
[04:59] <nemo_work> 192.168.xxx.xxx
[04:59] <segfault_> boink, thats sorta a matter of opinion it cant hurt to run a firewall behind a router, tho some may consider overkill
[04:59] <nemo_work> segfault_: if you're using wireless and are careless, can be a good idea...
[04:59] <segfault_> nemo_work, for sure
[04:59] <bobjones_> dragoncham88 http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso
[05:00] <nemo_work> segfault_: I run one at work 'cause I don't trust the laptops my coworkers bring on the network :-/
[05:00] <boink> yes, that's what I said .. if you're behind a router, you don't need a router
[05:00] <maxamillion> how do i set a static default gateway from the command line?
[05:00] <boink> not even for a windows box
[05:00] <bobjones_> dragoncham88 its a normal installer, not a live cd aswell
[05:00] <dragoncham88> bobjones, that's the one I burnt yesterday.
[05:00] <boink> aaargh, you don't need a firewall, I meant
[05:00] <segfault_> nemo_work, :) i run one at home on lappy and desktop behind a router, but im paranoid
[05:00] <maxamillion> how do i set a static default gateway from the command line?
[05:01] <nemo_work> gimpy_: do you run wireless on your router?
[05:01] <segfault_> maxamillion, man route
[05:01] <nemo_work> gimpy_: and if yes, are you using WPA2?
[05:01] <nemo_work> with PSK?
[05:01] <gimpy_> no
[05:01] <maxamillion> segfault_: thank you
[05:01] <kmaynard> psyoptik, have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling nx?
[05:01] <gimpy_> wep
[05:01] <dragoncham88> bobjones, my mistake, i didn't use the alternate in the name. I'll giv is a try.
[05:01] <psyoptik> several times
[05:01] <nemo_work> gimpy_: eeep.  then, yeah, you need a firewall
[05:01] <psyoptik> same problem everytime
[05:01] <vladas> do you know any software under the linux, that would be similar to the latest version of skype, because now i can get only skype 1.3 i think, and it's old
[05:01] <psyoptik> except this time I can get farther in adding a user...still fails tho
[05:01] <nemo_work> gimpy_: also, treat any network activity as potentially monitored
[05:01] <gimpy_> if I can set it to wpa...is that more secure?
[05:02] <nemo_work> hell yeah
[05:02] <kmaynard> ssh on port 22?
[05:02] <nemo_work> WPA2 with PSK (a good PSK) essentially unbreakable
[05:02] <nemo_work> WEP - can be broken in a few seconds with enough network activity
[05:02] <gimpy_> whats psk?
[05:02] <nemo_work> pre-shared key
[05:02] <gimpy_> ok
[05:02] <nemo_work> gimpy_: a nice long (preferably random) value that each machine must enter
[05:02] <kmaynard> psyoptik, ssh running on port 22?
[05:03] <psyoptik> kmaynard, yup sir
[05:03] <gimpy_> Any way I can play "windows" game on a ubuntu?
[05:03] <nemo_work> gimpy_: wine - although my favourite RTS, TA:Spring, runs quite well natively.
[05:03] <siXy> cedega or wine
[05:03] <wickedpuppy> gimpy_, wine or cedega ...
[05:03] <ckoehler> what's the difference between apt-get upgrade and dist-upgrade if I keek my sources the same?
[05:03] <chopchop_> nemo_work: how can you break wep in a few second?
[05:03] <kmaynard> psyoptik, gimme a min...gonna re-read the pastebin
[05:03] <gimpy_> how would I do so
[05:03] <nemo_work> chopchop_: google for it. there are a number of toolkits out there.
[05:04] <kmaynard> psyoptik, you use IM?
[05:04] <gimpy_> for instance Counter-strike?
[05:04] <RaggedJack> I am trying to get Sun Java installed and I have followed the faq but it tells me it is unavailable whether I do it from the command line of from the Gui tool.   Yes I have uncommented out the entries in the sources.list I have run an update as well.  Does not make any sense to me any suggestions.
[05:04] <psyoptik> kmaynard, instant messenger?
[05:04] <nemo_work> chopchop_: a few seconds is moderately exaggerated, but not if the network has a lot of traffic
[05:04] <nemo_work> chopchop_: let's say a few minutes then.
[05:04] <chopchop_> nemo_work: i didnt say it imposible but few scnd sound like a joke
[05:04] <abhinay> how to cancel printer jobs ?

[05:05] <webben> I can't get my samba server to list shares with smbclient or with be browsed from WinXP: http://pastebin.ca/196369 is my smb.conf
[05:05] <nemo_work> chopchop_: the info I read on it claimed 30 seconds or so
[05:05] <pluffsy> I need something so I can send mail from php on my ubuntu server. Should I use postfix or sendmail or something else? How hard is it to configure this?
[05:05] <webben> I can access Window shares in a VMWare virtual machine on the same server, from my Windows box

[05:06] <kmaynard> psyoptik, i just pm'd you
[05:06] <nemo_work> chopchop_: since I don't use wireless, I've never had cause to try it, personally
[05:06] <webben> can anyone help me?
[05:06] <Shorthorns> Hi
[05:06] <psyoptik> kmaynard, yea I got it, supposed i'm not registared give me a sec
[05:06] <kmaynard> np
[05:06] <Justin_> im running a lamp server on ubuntu with webmin, when i go to start apache, it says, Failed to start apache :
[05:06] <Justin_>  * Starting apache 2.0 web server...
[05:06] <Justin_> Syntax error on line 392 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:
[05:07] <Justin_> Port was replaced with Listen in Apache 2.0
[05:07] <Justin_>    ...fail!
[05:07] <chopchop_> Justin_: dont past here man
[05:07] <nemo_work> Justin_: that seems to be a pretty clear error message ;)
[05:07] <nemo_work> Justin_: go to line 392 and, oh, probably ask in #apache if the problem isn't obvious
[05:08] <nemo_work> Justin_: sounds like you just need to reformat a config value
[05:08] <Justin_> eh, im running ubuntu am i not? =D
[05:08] <gimpy_> can I do apt-get shorwall?
[05:08] <gimpy_> shorewall*
[05:08] <Justin_> thanks
[05:08] <wickedpuppy> Justin_, did you change the port apache listens to ?
[05:08] <nemo_work> seems like he just has an old config
[05:08] <Justin_> yes, to 8080.
[05:09] <savvas> gimpy_:  sudo apt-get install shorewall
[05:09] <gimpy_> Ok
[05:09] <gimpy_> thx
[05:09] <savvas> np :)
[05:09] <nemo_work> wickedpuppy: ah. ubuntu doesn't update the config if the user touched it, eh?
[05:09] <wickedpuppy> Justin_, where did you change it ?
[05:09] <gimpy_> I starting to love nx
[05:09] <webben> smbclient -L myhost returns "tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE" if that means anything to anyone
[05:09] <gimpy_> :)
[05:09] <savvas> I'm starting to love it too :P
[05:09] <gimpy_> :)
[05:09] <wickedpuppy> nemo_work, ? update which config ? apache ?
[05:09] <gimpy_> I just might uninstall windows
[05:09] <gimpy_> lol
[05:09] <Justin_> webmin, i think. either that or /etc/apache/apache.conf
[05:09] <nemo_work> wickedpuppy: ... I'm guessing any config file in /etc - dunno.
[05:10] <psyoptik> kmaynard, its not letting me register. i did /msg nickserv register <your-password> and nothing happens....
[05:10] <nemo_work> wickedpuppy: just seems like if he didn't change the config at all, that it should have replaced it when he upgraded to apache 2.0
[05:10] <psyoptik> pisses me off cause I did this already a while ago
[05:10] <wickedpuppy> nemo_work, why should ubuntu change ???
[05:10] <gimpy_> edit /etc/default/shorewall
[05:10] <gimpy_> Warning: unknown mime-type for "/etc/default/shorewall" -- using "application/*"
[05:10] <gimpy_> Error: no write permission for file "/etc/default/shorewall"
[05:10] <gimpy_> way to fix?
[05:10] <nemo_work> gimpy_: sudo su before editing :)
[05:10] <wickedpuppy> Justin_, go to /etc/apache2/ports.conf ... it is the file to change the port ... for apache 2
[05:10] <gimpy_> lol
[05:10] <kmaynard> psyoptik, no prob...
[05:11] <Justin_> wickedpuppy: thanks
[05:11] <gimpy_> Warning: unknown mime-type for "/etc/default/shorewall" -- using "application/*"
[05:11] <gimpy_> Error: no "edit" mailcap rules found for type "application/*"
[05:11] <gimpy_> now what?
[05:11] <kmaynard> psyoptik, how are you uninstalling NX?
[05:11] <cplctfd> does anyone one know how to make gnome more fancy looking? any other side than gnome-look?
[05:11] <wickedpuppy> Justin_, normally the config files are in /etc/program_name ... just look around .. and use grep
[05:12] <psyoptik> kmaynard, through synaptic. I do a complete removal (purge if from command line)
[05:12] <kmaynard> psyoptik, here's instruction for nxnode. try this for server and client too http://www.nomachine.com/documentation/node/install.php
[05:12] <segfault_> Justin_, what config are u looking for
[05:12] <cypher1> how do i play rmvb files ?
[05:13] <kmaynard> psyoptik, you may want to remove /usr/NX as well, and maybe reinstall SSH
[05:13] <Justin_> ports.conf has nothing in it
[05:14] <dragoncham88> I hope this alternate iso image works. Breezy won't boot now!
[05:14] <psyoptik> kmaynard, uninstalling and reinstalling now
[05:14] <gimpy_> sudo edit "/etc/default/shorewall"
[05:14] <gimpy_> Warning: unknown mime-type for "/etc/default/shorewall" -- using "application/*"
[05:14] <gimpy_> Error: no "edit" mailcap rules found for type "application/*"
[05:14] <kmaynard> try removing /usr/NX completely before you reinstall
[05:14] <gimpy_> what does that mean?
[05:15] <a514> Hi what's the bot's name?
[05:15] <khaije1> anyone know where I can find an op to request a hostname mask from?
[05:15] <nickb_ldn> hi, I'm having some issues with eclipse and with my java installation.  I definitely have sun-java5 installed and javac and java both work, but update-alternatives doesnt seem to know about sun-java5.  Any tips? ;)
[05:15] <khaije1> a514: bot's called ubotu
[05:15] <kmaynard> gimpy_, you may wanna try #shorewall
[05:15] <a514> ubotu codec
[05:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:15] <HumanPrototype> gimpy_, are you trying to edit it?
[05:15] <gimpy_> Yes
[05:15] <khaije1> !codecs
[05:15] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:15] <gimpy_> its shorewall
[05:15] <khaije1> :-)
[05:15] <a514> ubotu restricted dvd
[05:15] <HumanPrototype> gimpy_, if so use sudo nano /etc/default/shorewall
[05:15] <boink> !upstart
[05:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about restricted dvd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:16] <ubotu> Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[05:16] <HumanPrototype> gimpy_, edit isnt a text editor afaik
[05:16] <gimpy_> thx HumanPrototype
[05:16] <khaije1> boink: do you understand upstart? it seems like a pretty interesting and risky change (in terms of adoption)
[05:16] <a514> Where can i find the dvd deb?
[05:16] <segfault_> gimpy_, try one of vim/emacs/nano/gedit
[05:16] <gimpy_> ok
[05:17] <segfault_> a514, read the restricted formats page
[05:17] <Shorthorns> is there a way to speed up the menus within gnome?
[05:17] <khaije1> a514: try googling for the penguin liberation front, that should give you sufficient info to add the repository to your apt.source list
[05:17] <khaije1> also see segfault_'s comment
[05:17] <wickedpuppy> Shorthorns, yes ... get more rams ...
[05:17] <gimpy_> how do I save in "nano"
[05:17] <HumanPrototype> Shorthorns, try adding more memory or upgrading your cpu?
[05:17] <wickedpuppy> i seen it works many times
[05:18] <wickedpuppy> gimpy_, ^ = ctrl
[05:18] <segfault_> gimpy_, comds at bottom of window
[05:18] <wickedpuppy> gimpy_, you got to start exploring dude ....
[05:18] <gimpy_> is it writeout?
[05:18] <HumanPrototype> gimpy_, so use ctrl + o to save andctrl+x to quit
[05:18] <Shorthorns> nodar, i think i have no ram-problem. The initial delay is annoying.
[05:18] <gimpy_> ok
[05:18] <gimpy_> thought so
[05:18] <wickedpuppy> Shorthorns, how much ram you got ?
[05:19] <Shorthorns> 1G
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> gimpy_, sometimes ... just do it ...
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> wha
[05:19] <a514> ubotu libdvdcss
[05:19] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html  Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:19] <HumanPrototype> Shorthorns, how long is this delay you are talking about?
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> i got 512 and my menu are snappy
[05:19] <gimpy_> didnt want to screw it up
[05:19] <gimpy_> thx
[05:19] <HumanPrototype> gimpy_, if u did it right u would have cp /etc/default/shorewall /etc/default/shorewall.bak first
[05:19] <Shorthorns> I think the delay is due to build
[05:19] <wickedpuppy> gimpy_, if you are not screwing up .. you are not learning
[05:19] <HumanPrototype> gimpy_, so even if u delte it all by mistake ure still fine
[05:19] <Shorthorns> up the icons to show there...
[05:20] <gimpy_> That makes me feel better :-)
[05:20] <gimpy_> thx
[05:20] <gimpy_> :)
[05:20] <Shorthorns> the delay is about eone second
[05:20] <HumanPrototype> Shorthorns, that shouldnt be happenig, what are the specs of the pc?
[05:21] <seishi> cypher1,  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-171548.html

[05:24] <HumanPrototype> Shorthorns, try installing the official ati drivers
[05:24] <savvas> how can I change my hostname? instead of saying username-desktop to say something else
[05:24] <khaije1> nalioth: may i msg you re: hostname cloak?
[05:24] <Shorthorns> I have done that
[05:24] <nickb_ldn> hi. I was asking a questing about myjava installation - then my JVM went crazy and firefox crashed.  My update-alternatives doesnt seem to show  sun-java5, which is definitely installed.
[05:25] <HumanPrototype> Shorthorns, they may suck but they are better than the free drivers (easy ubuntu helps you install them)
[05:25] <nalioth> khaije1: surely
[05:25] <gimpy_> I love all the people in #ubuntu
[05:25] <cypher1> seishi, thanks a lot
[05:25] <boink> is the PLF site down? I can't apt-get update from it
[05:25] <Shorthorns> Thank you HumanPrototype. The drivers are ok, i think
[05:25] <seishi> seishi, =P
[05:26] <pike__> Shorthorns: best bet would be to ebay the ati card and get an nvidia id hate to have that nice computer with crappy 3d accel..
[05:26] <segfault_> savvas, hostname cmd
[05:27] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, u install jave thru apt
[05:27] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: yeah
[05:28] <Shorthorns> Pike: Thank you for your tip. But i only need an good 2d-performance. The card is - imho - fine for me. So where are the major differences to nv-cards? Better 2d?
[05:28] <kmaynard> Shorthorns, have you tried installing the ati drivers thru automatiX?
[05:28] <Shorthorns> kmaynard: The drivers are installed and funtional.
[05:28] <seishi> cypher1,  =P
[05:29] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, mine shows this /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java under alternative java
[05:29] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, u may want to reinstall java
[05:29] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: I think I might have figured the problem.  One sec
[05:29] <boink> !easysource
[05:29] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[05:30] <savvas> segfault_: sudo: unable to lookup my-ubuntu-desktop via gethostbyname()
[05:30] <kmaynard> Shorthorns, i had an ATI card, and finally put an nvidia in its place...the difference in noticable
[05:31] <savvas> uhm
[05:31] <segfault_> savvas, man hostname
[05:31] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: All I have is /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java - but sun java is def there.  Can I edit it manually? If I just cahnge the sym links myself its the saem thing?
[05:31] <gimpy_> with wine, do I just stall and go? or what do I have to do?
[05:32] <gimpy_> just install*
[05:32] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, yes u can add manually, and yes can u can change the symlinks by hand, but u should reinstall java and let dpkg set it up for u then just run update-alternatives
[05:33] <psyoptik> kmaynard, did full purge and reinstall of openssh-server, nxclient, nxnode, and nxserver. the nx packages I redownloaded. I also removed /usr/NX before installing. still errors, see output http://ubuntu.pastebin.ca/196388

[05:33] <kmaynard> i sound like an automatix commercial, but i used it to install java, and it flat works...it'll also install the SDK
[05:33] <nickb_ldn> so apt-get uninstall --purge it all?  I have just purges all the java I could find and reinstalled it though?

[05:34] <kmaynard> psyoptik, try  sudo apt-get install -f
[05:34] <savvas> segfault_: i can't do sudo anymore!!
[05:34] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, that or just apt-get install --reinstall pkgname
[05:34] <segfault_> savvas, wat did u do
[05:34] <nickb_ldn> I'll give it a try
[05:35] <savvas> i did sudo hostname my-ubuntu-desktop
[05:35] <savvas> which is wrong as i see :\
[05:35] <psyoptik> kmaynard, to reinstall the packages? whats the -f argument?
[05:35] <savvas> now all i get is sudo: unable to lookup my-ubuntu-desktop via gethostbyname()
[05:35] <gnomefreak> psyoptik: --fix-broken
[05:35] <boink> damm, is there any realplay .debs around?
[05:35] <kmaynard> psyoptik, i see where you installed nxclient and nxserver, what about nxnode?  -f forces it to fix messed up installs
[05:35] <rfreck> hello all
[05:35] <rfreck> may i ask a question?
[05:35] <segfault_> savvas, what does hostanme return
[05:35] <boink> !ask
[05:35] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:36] <rfreck> "_
[05:36] <rfreck> :P
[05:36] <rfreck> k
[05:36] <kmaynard> lol @ boink
[05:36] <rfreck> i fubarred my xserver and am currently in bitchx is there a cmd to reconfigure the X to default?
[05:36] <boink> well .. I'm still looking for a way to install realplay as a .dib
[05:36] <boink> .deb I mean
[05:36] <segfault_> rfreck, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:37] <gnomefreak> boink: open addd/remove from the bottom of the applications menu
[05:37] <segfault_> rfreck, not default but will reconfig it
[05:37] <rfreck> ty very much my friends
[05:37] <boink> ok
[05:37] <rfreck> great
[05:37] <gnomefreak> boink: than check show commericail apps
[05:37] <segfault_> savvas, u likely just need to reboot
[05:37] <savvas> segfault_: it was forger-desktop, but i wanted it to be my-ubuntu-desktop,now when i do a sudo command (like sudo echo moo) it returns that error i said
[05:37] <gnomefreak> than look for it and install it :)
[05:38] <psyoptik> kmaynard, it doesn't have any broken packages to fix. I installed nxnode after nxclient and in the same folder as nxclient and nxserver...so unless that answers your question I need clarification as to what you mean by where I installed it.
[05:38] <boink> doesn't that app use the /etc/apt/sources.list?
[05:38] <gnomefreak> no
[05:38] <gnomefreak> boink: in a sense yes
[05:38] <boink> ok .. where's the "commericial" thing?
[05:38] <gnomefreak> but you shouldnt see a new repo
[05:39] <gnomefreak> boink: are you on dapper?
[05:39] <boink> yes
[05:39] <boink> but maybe my sources.list is not in order
[05:39] <brianben1> good morning guys
[05:39] <kmaynard> psyoptik, ok, if you installed all three, and ssh, and it still doesnt work, im lost...i havent had trouble with it
[05:39] <gnomefreak> boink: if its on in the space on bottom right you will see a drop down box on top right
[05:39] <boink> aaah, duh. ta
[05:39] <psyoptik> kmaynard, i think my box is out to get me. I've had a lot of things that should just work, not
[05:40] <mikemcc> Display workaround: Under Ubuntu I couldn't get display resolution above 1080x764. I installed Kubuntu and  found that there were menus for display card (ATI Mobility P) and screen resolution (Dell - 1400x1050 flat panel) and when I returned to a Gnome session I had the native display resolution (but I don't know about acceleration). I'm wondering if I were to uninstall Kubuntu if I would lose those gains.
[05:40] <psyoptik> kmaynard, I can't get VNC to work either
[05:40] <psyoptik> pain in my arse
[05:40] <kmaynard> psyoptik, you are having trouble
[05:41] <psyoptik> kmaynard, any idea who I can contact (email or otherwise) about such things?
[05:41] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: I reinstalled sun java, then ran update alternatives, it still doesnt see sun java
[05:41] <kmaynard> psyoptik, you're in the best place really...i'd suggest the ubuntu forums and google
[05:42] <brianben1> anyone have some pointers about getting v4l2 and a crappy ati tv wonder ve card working?
[05:42] <LjL> mikemcc, you can usually make higher resolutions available to your X by typing "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:42] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: Even worse - it has replaced all the symlinks to libgcj 1.4!
[05:42] <psyoptik> kmaynard, yeah, and google had been no help for either vnc or NX...thanks for all your help though
[05:43] <pike__> we need to make a pygtk app for editing xorg included in ubuntu that uses at least open source drivers. something like sax2 but not sucky..
[05:43] <LjL> mikemcc: i guess your KDE, thanks to Guidance, has already modified the xorg.conf file (the same that dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg touches), and that would be why you now have higher resolutions available
[05:44] <kmaynard> psyoptik, sry couldnt get it going
[05:44] <psyoptik> kmaynard, no worries. Such as life in computing. Thanks a lot though. been more help than anyone else has been
[05:44] <kmaynard> ha
[05:44] <kmaynard> np
[05:45] <brianben1> so what is the topic du jour?
[05:45] <Nem1> hi
[05:45] <kmaynard> psyoptik, i hate to suggest a clean ubuntu install, but...
[05:45] <kmaynard> ...it's an idea
[05:45] <Nem1> i need help
[05:45] <mikemcc> LjL: Thank you. Do you know if Guidance is giving me full display acceleration?
[05:45] <psyoptik> kmaynard, been thinking about it.
[05:45] <brianben1> what's up nem1
[05:46] <psyoptik> i think i might try that
[05:46] <kmaynard> psyoptik, how long have you had your current install?
[05:46] <tti> i just shared my home folder in Ubuntu... my windows computer are able to see my ubuntu box, but when i try to access it, it asks for a username/password... i enter my user/pass that i use for logging into ubuntu, but it doesnt work?
[05:46] <Nem1> how can i install sth on linux edubuntu?
[05:46] <kmaynard> Nem1, apt-get install ssh
[05:46] <LjL> mikemcc: not necessarily. if you have an ATI or NVidia card, you might want to look at this
[05:46] <kmaynard> wait, what is sth?
[05:46] <brianben1> tti. have you added your samba id and password with smbpasswd?
[05:46] <Nem1> thanks!
[05:46] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, what is pkg name u reinstalled?
[05:47] <tti> nope, is that a command line tool?... if so, is there a gui equivalent or front end?
[05:47] <boink> easypaste does need some updating
[05:47] <nickb_ldn> segfault_:  sun-java5-jdk
[05:47] <Seveas> Good afternoon everyone (and good somethong for those in other timezones)!
[05:47] <mikemcc> LjL: sorry, look at what?
[05:47] <brianben1> tti. there may be an gui for it but I dont know, just use 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' then it will prompt you for the password, just make sure your restart smb after adding the id
[05:48] <LjL> mikemcc: at the private message you should have got from Ubotu
[05:48] <YBH_1> cw=Z] Q;ICQ;Cv
[05:48] <tti> ok, how do i delete a user from smb, and how do i restart samba?
[05:48] <YBH_1> cw=Z] HSQ<CN
[05:48] <YBH_1> cw=Z] KaSpBu
[05:48] <alejandro> ola
[05:49] <YBH_1> cw=Z] Pe;J
[05:49] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, u may try reinstalling sun-java5-[bin,jre,jdk] 
[05:49] <alejandro> lorenzo
[05:49] <brianben1> tti. 'sudo smbpasswd -d username' to delete a user and 'sudo /etc/init.d/smb restart' to restart samba
[05:50] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: done that so many times today.  I think alternatives is all screwed.  It just wont see sun-java5-jdk
[05:50] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, jdk pkg provides compilers etc and depends on jre pkg, which in turn depends on bin pkg
[05:50] <mikemcc> LjL: XChat didn't seem to pass that along...
[05:50] <LjL> !ati
[05:50] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:50] <LjL> mikemcc: ^
[05:50] <Nem1> Can you tell me plz how do i install sth on Linux edubuntu?
[05:50] <kmaynard> Nem1, what is sth?
[05:50] <mikemcc> Thanks
[05:50] <ikaruga2099> tti: if command line is a drag....you might want to try webmin
[05:50] <LjL> !webmin
[05:50] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[05:50] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, part of the install process for those pkgs is to add the items alternatives db
[05:51] <Nem1> real basic for example.i have already download it
[05:51] <alejandro> ggoirifufuyfyufyfyyyyfyyfyf
[05:51] <kmaynard> Nem1, give me a link
[05:51] <alejandro> lmllln
[05:51] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: that doesnt seem to be happening
[05:51] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, u may also try removing/purging bin pkg which should remove/purge all sunjava5 pkgs, and then reinstall them all
[05:51] <LjL> alejandro, what the heck are you doing?
[05:51] <ikaruga2099> tti: nevermind then
[05:51] <D_C> this might sound stupid but can i update from 5.04 to 6.06 without reinstalling?
[05:52] <ryanpg> hi all... this has happened before but I can't remember why and how to address it... my /etc/udev/ directory is full of files ending in .dpkg-new
[05:52] <chuckyp> !es
[05:52] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[05:52] <Nem1> ok.
[05:52] <Nem1> www.realsoftware.com/download/
[05:52] <kmaynard> D_C, yes you can
[05:52] <ryanpg> what does the suffix .dpkg-new mean and how do I deal with these files?
[05:52] <kmaynard> D_C, i did it on several boxes
[05:52] <nickb_ldn> segfault_: sorrry not sure what you mean by bin pkg?
[05:52] <MaKaTiGuY> need some help guys
[05:52] <brianben1> D_C i tried on two machines to upgrade to 6.06 and both failed
[05:52] <segfault_> nickb_ldn, sun-java5-bin
[05:52] <tti> i just tried that and got: Failed to initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user tti. Does this user exist in the UNIX password database
[05:52] <nickb_ldn> ok
[05:52] <D_C> how do i update it?
[05:52] <winga> can anyone tell me how to get gui stuff to work like when i run an installer or something from a terminal, i don't see any text in the windows that pop up, just buttons and space
[05:53] <brianben1> D_C may have been the custom kernels I had etc but in theory it should work
[05:53] <chuckyp> ryanpg, what do you mean deal with them?
[05:53] <MaKaTiGuY> how do i mount my existing drives
[05:53] <winga> i'm using xfce so i'm probably missing a font or something
[05:53] <tti> (im referring to #sudo smbpasswd -a <user>)
[05:53] <chuckyp> !tell winga about fonts
[05:53] <segfault_> D_C, change sources.list and run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:53] <brianben1> tti are you doing that with sudo?
[05:53] <babo> how do i install xgl and those compiz themes ?
[05:53] <tti> yes
[05:53] <D_C> ah k..
[05:53] <LjL> !xgl
[05:53] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL)  -  Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager  -  Help in #ubuntu-xgl  -  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[05:53] <kmaynard> D_C, gksudo update-manager -d
[05:54] <stefg> !xgl
[05:54] <ryanpg> chuckyp, well I'm assuming they should not be there, that they are an indication of something, perhaps that the package needs to be configured
[05:54] <D_C> so thats why its asking to download 300~ MB of stuff?
[05:54] <pi> how can I boot my dapper without monitor's cable connected and a resolution different of default 640x480?
[05:54] <brianben1> tti do you have all the samba installed?
[05:54] <pike__> babo: you must fast and pray for 7 days to have any hope of success..
[05:54] <kmaynard> D_C, it is an upgrade
[05:54] <qmf> is there a way to make flash think it's a higher version than it is?
[05:54] <chuckyp> ryanpg, let me see what I can find I don't have any but i'll check
[05:54] <kmaynard> !upgrade
[05:54] <ubotu> Upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[05:54] <tti> how can i make sure?
[05:54] <winga> chuckyp, what?
[05:54] <kmaynard> !upgrade > D_C
[05:54] <MaKaTiGuY> how do i mount my existing drives?
[05:54] <D_C> thanks ;p
[05:54] <babo> pike__: that difficult ha ?
[05:54] <nickb_ldn> MaKaTiGuY: sudo mount /mnt/cdrom0  for example
[05:54] <segfault_> D_C, u should only upgrade to the next version (i.e. 5.04 to 5.10, then 5.10 to 6.06)
[05:54] <D_C> ah ok
[05:54] <ikaruga2099> hey guys, I've installed qt3 (for skype and scribus) but I want to also install qt4....will both installed at the same time cause problems?
[05:55] <BlackJordan> how do I find and install the video/audio codecs for totem?
[05:55] <rich_> ugh ok i ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg now  i have a different error
[05:55] <rich_> a couple of them
[05:55] <pike__> babo: not really difficult but it can break things
[05:55] <ikaruga2099> ubotu: qt4
[05:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about qt4 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:55] <MaKaTiGuY> nick: where should i type that, sorry, im new
[05:55] <tti> in other words, which packages should i have installed?
[05:55] <brianben1> tti are you entering the root password after smbpasswd or the password you want to add to the smb secrets file?
[05:55] <chuckyp> winga, I was giving you the instruction for installing fonts from ubotu
[05:55] <rich_> it says something about my security policy and other error says it cannot or mount /dev/wacom  whatever that is
[05:56] <Nem1> kmaynard,www.realsoftware.com/download/
[05:56] <tti> it says: enter new smb password, then it says to retype.... and when i do, it gives me that error
[05:56] <Dreamglider> thats it for windows time for ubuntu
[05:56] <pi> nobody can help me?
[05:56] <BlackJordan> how do I find and install the video/audio codecs for totem
[05:56] <winga> chuckyp, roger, first time on the server, wasn't familiar with that, haha
[05:56] <nickb_ldn> MaKaTiGuY: Ok, so do you know about the fstab?  try typing:  man fstab into a terminal ] 
[05:56] <boink> !tell pi about ask
[05:56] <D_C> could i possibly download the disc images and mount them and then tell synaptic to use the image?
[05:57] <pi> how can I boot my dapper without monitor's cable connected and a resolution different of default 640x480?
[05:57] <kmaynard> Nem1, unpack the tarball and check the readme...there should be an install or setup script in there too
[05:57] <brianben1> tti are you adding your current linux user id to the smb secrets, the id has to be a current user on the machine
[05:57] <Nem1> ok ,i'll try thx
[05:57] <kmaynard> D_C, why? you gotta download stuff anyway. why complicate it?
[05:57] <pi> I would run my server without monitor and controlo it via vnc
[05:57] <nickb_ldn> MaKaTiGuY: also, when you addres someone in IRC, type the first few letters of their name, then press tab and the field will complete automatically and the person will be alerteed
[05:57] <tti> ooo, im adding a totally new ID
[05:57] <chuckyp> ryanpg, Yeah they are configuration files for certain packages.  and they are taken into consideration if you were to run dpkg-reconfigure <packagename>
[05:57] <D_C> because i have a download limit, and my ISP has the image files
[05:57] <brianben1> tti the user you add to samba has to be a current username on the system
[05:58] <chuckyp> ryanpg, you can edit  them and give extra instructions to the reconfigure.
[05:58] <tti> i also notice that libsmbpass is NOT installed on my computer (it says that its a tool made to keep smb in sync with unix passwords) should i insstall it
[05:58] <rich_> anyone help me with an error for reconfiguring the xserver?
[05:58] <chuckyp> MaKaTiGuY, whattup did you ever get that going at the slower speed?
[05:58] <kmaynard> D_C, you may just want to get the image and do a clean install
[05:58] <chuckyp> !tell rich_ about ask
[05:58] <orbin> BlackJordan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[05:58] <Dreamglider> D_C it download limits suck
[05:58] <Haprog> I'm using up to date Ubuntu Edgy and I'm trying to mount a USB stick but there is no device for it in /dev. Shouldn't it be in /dev/usb or something? I can see the device is detected with dmesg and I have usb_storage module loaded
[05:58] <rich_> i did ask the question awhile back :)
[05:59] <D_C> yeah, well australian broadband isnt that great when it comes to download limits heh
[05:59] <chuckyp> Haprog, edgy support is in #ubuntu+1
[05:59] <brianben1> tti make sure you have smbfs and samba-common installed
[05:59] <kmaynard> D_C, i havent tried this, but...get the image, burn it to a cd, and add it as a dapper repository in synaptic, then do a dist-upgrade
[05:59] <Dreamglider> i had 3gb download limit once
[05:59] <Haprog> chuckyp: ok thanks
[05:59] <rich_> im getting an error something that has to do with my securityprofile?
[05:59] <rich_> and also cannot find device /dev/wacom?
[05:59] <sbalneav> Haprog: Does it show up on your desktop?
[05:59] <orbin> D_C: at least you're not on bigpond :P
[05:59] <Dreamglider> i downlod between 10 and 15 gb usualy
[06:00] <D_C> would probably be easier just to install with 6.06 dapper, i only installed 5.04 because i had it laying around
[06:00] <chuckyp> rich_, its possible that no one knows the answer to your question or that they are talking to someone else and didn't see it.   Did you try searching the forums?
[06:00] <mAIJK>  Can I change my fonts so It looks more like Windows with arial, times and verdana? Im a webdesigner and really need this to work...
[06:00] <D_C> thats true orbin  :D
[06:00] <Alakala> Mm, no help, didn't find fglrx again. :(
[06:00] <kmaynard> D_C, oh yeah, if you're not gonna lose anything critical, clean install FTW
[06:00] <Haprog> sbalneav: no
[06:00] <rich_> i have no X at the moment  :)
[06:00] <rich_> just using bitchx right now
[06:00] <wilcox> !fonts
[06:00] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto
[06:00] <ubotu> No fonts in flash? Install msttcorefonts, gsfonts, and gsfonts-x11 , No fonts in mplayer? see !mplayer
[06:01] <chuckyp> rich_, well you can use w3m to browse the web
[06:01] <D_C> haha i was gonna ask about no fonts in flash aswell
[06:01] <kmaynard> flash smash....i want flash 9
[06:01] <wilcox> :P
[06:01] <kmaynard> sorry, /ot
[06:01] <mAIJK> Any program like frontpage in ubuntu??
[06:01] <rich_> never heard of w3m
[06:01] <wilcox> mAIJK: yes
[06:02] <rich_> do i have to log out of bitchx to do this
[06:02] <mAIJK> wilcox: how?
[06:02] <mAIJK> wilcox: which?
[06:02] <Seveas> mAIJK, sorry no, the web authoring programs in ubuntu don't spit out the mess frontpage produces 
[06:02] <boink> what does frontpage do?
[06:02] <babo> so for xgl this is what I should install as a kernel module ....
[06:02] <babo> sudo apt-get install linux-686-smp
[06:02] <chuckyp> rich_, text based browser
[06:02] <kmaynard> boink, it messes stuff up
[06:02] <babo> what does that translate to for an amd64 ?
[06:02] <chuckyp> rich_, you don't need to log out of bitchx
[06:02] <orbin> rich_: yep.  next time use screen
[06:02] <sidny4> mAIJK, there are several html editors, NVU, bluefish, screem
[06:02] <wilcox> mAIJK: install nvu
[06:03] <chuckyp> rich_, you can switch consoles using atrl+alt+f1  through f6
[06:03] <sidny4> !html
[06:03] <ubotu> html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build webpages. Editors in Ubuntu: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem. For howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com
[06:03] <kmaynard> frontpage is a web page designer...try nvu
[06:03] <rich_> ty
[06:03] <kmaynard> !nvu
[06:03] <ubotu> nvu: Complete Web Authoring System. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0-0ubuntu4 (dapper), package size 8343 kB, installed size 26440 kB
[06:03] <chuckyp> rich_, sorry ctrl+alt
[06:03] <babo> sudo apt-get install linux-amd ?
[06:03] <boink> aah, try bluefish if you need a web-page html design thing
[06:03] <wilcox> nvu is the only editor with good working wysiwyg
[06:03] <chuckyp> rich_, you could also background bitchx hitting ctrl+z  then typing bg  to background it.   if you wanted to bring it back you could type in fg for forground
[06:04] <babo> what's the smp kernel module for and amd64 ?
[06:04] <chuckyp> !smp
[06:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:04] <chuckyp> :(
[06:04] <kmaynard> bluefish, nvu, screem, there's a lot to choose from
[06:04] <mAIJK> thx
[06:04] <chuckyp> notepad++
[06:04] <wilcox> he asked a frontpage like editor
[06:04] <wilcox> (wysiwyg
[06:04] <wilcox> )
[06:04] <chuckyp> ahh
[06:05] <wilcox> not code editor
[06:05] <wilcox> :)
[06:05] <kmaynard> babo, i use 686, and smp is enabled on it with my ht cpu... you may not need a seperate SMP kernel, just a 64 bit kernel
[06:05] <chuckyp> yeah nvu
[06:05] <boink> dunno, never used frontpage myself
[06:05] <wilcox> boink: me neither
[06:05] <chuckyp> hell you could even run frontpage with wine if you wanted.
[06:05] <boink> I thought bluefish is both .. code and html
[06:05] <kmaynard> frontpage is an MS program, if that tells you anything
[06:05] <tti> ok that worked, thx.... my windowsxp machine can access my ubuntu box... problem: when i try to access my windowsxp share in ubuntu, it sees the computer as a "desktop icon" and when i click on it, it won't open, gives me an error
[06:05] <babo> kmaynard: I'm using 32 bit ubuntu though ... so I guess that might not have the smp kernel ?
[06:05] <Dreamglider> is it easy to move a NTFS partino ?
[06:05] <harisund> boink bluefish is not a WYSIWYG editor. I believe screem is (?) but NVU definitely is.
[06:05] <kmaynard> tti, you have shared folders on the xp box?
[06:06] <tti> yes
[06:06] <D_C> be back later
[06:06] <tti> i can access them from other windowsxp pc's
[06:06] <ladydoor> quick question:  if i want to install a LaTeX thing that's not in the repositories (apa.cls), would i need to uninstall LaTeX and reinstall it from source?
[06:06] <D_C> thanks for the help
[06:06] <kmaynard> babo, if you use the 686 kernel it should enable smp
[06:06] <babo> how can you list your kernel modules again ? I thought it was insmod ...
[06:06] <NZvip> Can I ask in here what to do to allow GNOME-screenresolution to go higher than 640x480?
[06:06] <harisund> babo: lsmod?
[06:06] <tigfour> *****----- Quick Question, is there a way to monitor network traffic in a terminal? -----*****
[06:06] <wilcox> lsmod
[06:06] <chuckyp> babo, yeah 386 doesn't have the smp support compiled in 686 does.  however if you want amd64bit that is a different kernel as well.
[06:06] <harisund> tigfour: use tcpdump. Uber program, if you ask me.

[06:07] <NZvip> Screen very small!
[06:07] <Dreamglider> the swat should it be primary or an extended partion ?
[06:07] <kmaynard> babo im using linux-image-2.6.15-27-686
[06:07] <Dreamglider> swaP
[06:07] <chuckyp> babo, what type of processor do you have?
[06:08] <kmaynard> and it has smp turned on...there used to be a specific -smp image, but they dont do that anymore
[06:08] <babo> kmaynard: Linux eire 2.6.15-26-386
[06:08] <chuckyp> kmaynard, it was -smp  but now 686 has replaced it.
[06:08] <chuckyp> kmaynard, are you kevin maynard?
[06:08] <harisund> tigfour: I guess you can setup as many filters as you want for simple monitoring.
[06:08] <babo> chuckyp: amd 64 ...  i686
[06:08] <harisund> tigfour: but I am not aware of any other.
[06:09] <tigfour> harisund: what's the basic usage to view eth0's traffic
[06:09] <chuckyp> babo, there is a amd64 specific kernel
[06:09] <chuckyp> kmaynard, DSM
[06:09] <chuckyp> kmaynard, or I should say cleveland DSM
[06:09] <babo> chuckyp: a specific amd64 smp kernel ? Will apt-get find it by any chance ?
[06:09] <Dreamglider> should the swap partino be primary or an extended ?
[06:09] <chuckyp> kmaynard, err or was it ken
[06:09] <ladydoor> Dreamglider: neither. it should be swap
[06:10] <brianben1> Dreamglider it should be primary
[06:10] <Dreamglider> Hmmmm
[06:10] <ladydoor> Dreamglider: *what brianben1 said, too
[06:10] <harisund> tigfour: let me check..
[06:10] <kmaynard> chuckyp, nope
[06:10] <brianben1> Dreamglider a primary partition but formated as swap
[06:10] <Dreamglider> ok tks
[06:10] <harisund> tigfour: are you accessing the computer through SSH or something?
[06:11] <tigfour> harisund: no matter what i type it gives me
[06:11] <tigfour> tcpdump: no suitable device found
[06:11] <brianben1> any experts with v4l and bttv?
[06:11] <harisund> tigfour: you have to first do 'tcpdump -i eth0' for your eth0 interface
[06:11] <babo> apt doesn't have a function to search the repos ?
[06:12] <harisund> babo: apt-cache search
[06:12] <harisund> yacc I think it does... apt-get build-dep or something like that.
[06:12] <chuckyp> kmaynard, ahh thought you were somebody else
[06:12] <babo> harisund: cool, got it...
[06:12] <harisund> babo: you can use "apt-cache search --names-only package" which would trim down the output
[06:12] <kmaynard> chuckyp, i wish i had his domain name :)
[06:13] <yacc> And how do I rebuilt a package? apt-get source package and then?
[06:13] <kmaynard> wait, im thinking of this guy   kmaynard.com
[06:13] <tigfour> harisund: tcpdump: socket: Operation not permitted
[06:13] <tigfour> whn i do -i eth0
[06:13] <chuckyp> kmaynard, I thought you were somebody who bought an eclipse of mine had a knock on cylander 1
[06:13] <babo> harisund: it only returns packages for the K7 kernel ...
[06:14] <Justy-> Hello
[06:14] <tigfour> harisund: thanks anyways, ill figure it out later
[06:14] <gimpy_> how do I install an rpm from terminal?
[06:14] <harisund> tigfour you need root .. oh never mind.
[06:14] <chuckyp> !tell gimpy_ about alien
[06:14] <harisund> babo: hat did you search?
[06:15] <Justy-> question: I have changed a shortcut key to F2 and when i press F2 on a hovered file @ nautilus, i get that shortcut's task.
[06:15] <mikemcc> Ljl: My display card doesn't meet Radeon Prerequisite
[06:15] <babo> harisund: apt-cache search amd smp
[06:15] <Justy-> question: How can i make F2 to work as "rename" again?
[06:15] <kmaynard> chuckyp, lol
[06:15] <lotusleaf> how may I find out what hald is doing exactly? Every few seconds my HDD light flashes and in KSysGuard hald is doing something which coincides with the HDD light flashing, even when no programs are running and the system is idle.
[06:16] <lotusleaf> hald does this in Gnome too so it's not a kubuntu limited issue
[06:16] <chuckyp> lotusleaf, see if there is a log in /var/log for hald
[06:16] <gimpy_> thx
[06:16] <lotusleaf> chuckyp: I'll check, thank you =)
[06:16] <Justy-> question: I have changed a shortcut key to F2 and when i press F2 on a hovered file @ nautilus, i get that shortcut's task.
[06:16] <brianben1> lotutsleaf i think it is the removable storage checking for newly attached devices to automount them
[06:16] <Justy-> question: How can i make F2 to work as "rename" again?
[06:17] <lotusleaf> chuckyp: no logs found for hald
[06:17] <sidny4> !hald
[06:17] <chuckyp> lotusleaf, there is a way to run it in verbose mode looking at the man pages for hald
[06:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hald - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:17] <lotusleaf> brianben1: thanks, but why would this cause so much hd activity?
[06:17] <Justy-> 1
[06:17] <Justy-> echo "Isle
[06:17] <Justy-> ops
[06:17] <orbin> Justy-: disable the shortcut?
[06:18] <Justy-> orbin, i am sorry for my dumb question
[06:18] <chuckyp> lotusleaf, looks like it outputs messages to stderr
[06:18] <lotusleaf> Would there be any harm in disallowing hald to load and just load it manually instead when I need it?
[06:18] <Justy-> orbin, i feel so embarrased
[06:18] <brianben1> lotusleaf, i had the same thing driving me nuts in RHEL4 but dont really see it in ubuntu
[06:18] <Justy-> :$
[06:18] <Shorthorns> bye
[06:18] <Pelo> good afternoon everyone,   does anyone know a simple  app to combine sequential mp3 into one ?  just load, order and click ?
[06:18] <Justy-> orbin, thanks. bye
[06:19] <pike__> Pelo: you mean like combine files into one?
[06:20] <brianben1> Pelo, check out freshmeat and search for quelcom
[06:20] <Pelo> like join them together
[06:20] <boink> Pelo: you could try audacity
[06:20] <lotusleaf> brianben1: really, interesting thanks
[06:20] <Pelo> boink audacity doesn'T do it auto , that I've seen anyway, you need to clip/paste each bit of file individualy
[06:20] <brianben1> Pelo or you can apt-get quelcom for a cli to join files
[06:21] <lotusleaf> chuckp thanks I'm trying 'sudo lshal --monitor' and waiting to see if anything shows up ;)
[06:21] <brianben1> did not know it was in repos
[06:21] <hughsie> ogra: hey, long time no speak.
[06:21] <Pelo> ok, thanks guys, I,ll check those out
[06:21] <pantaloon>  this might be a dumb question, but is there a way to use the system terminal font in gedit?
[06:22] <pike__> Pelo: maybe you could do " echo "" > newfile.mp3 && for i in `ls`; do cat $i.mp3 >> newfile.mp3 or something
[06:22] <rich_> well i have tried a few things still no luck :)
[06:22] <brianben1> HELP with tv capture card!!!!!
[06:23] <lotusleaf> Okay, so it won't hurt anything by disabling hald from starting @ boot, right? I don't plug in devices that often so I really don't need hald running all the time I gather
[06:23] <orbin> pantaloon: gnome-terminal font or the actual console?
[06:23] <brianben1> I have ati tv wonder ve and no matter what insmod options I choose the tuner cannot tune in any stations
[06:23] <chuckyp> brianben1, what are you trying to do with the capture card or what is the errors you are getting.
[06:23] <pantaloon> orbin, i guess the gnome-terminal font
[06:24] <hughsie> I need to rebuild hal cvs into a .deb file. Does anyone have any links for how to do this. I'm running that latest edgy. Thnka
[06:24] <chuckyp> brianben1, the best place for support for those is in the mythtv forums.   Because most of the users get the card working then install mythtv they've gone through a lot of trouble shooting.
[06:24] <brianben1> last time I got it working was with an older kernel and the tuner module had a type=arg insmod option but that is no longer there in the new kernel
[06:24] <chuckyp> hughsie, edgy support is in #ubuntu+1
[06:25] <orbin> pantaloon: just matche the one from GT to the one in gedit then
[06:25] <hughsie> chuckyp: okay, thanks. I figured this was a generic ubuntu question.
[06:25] <brianben1> chuckyp: good idea
[06:25] <orbin> pantaloon: edit > prefs > font
[06:25] <chuckyp> hughsie, well more of a debian question but I wouldn't even know where to begin on that one.
[06:26] <hughsie> chuckyp: i figured ubuntu does something special for HAL as dpkg-buildpackage didn't work...
[06:26] <chuckyp> hughsie, okay found some direction that may work http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-grass-general/2005-August/001077.html
[06:26] <pantaloon> orbin, oh...i guess i'm looking for a font that displays ascii characters then
[06:26] <jorgp> anyone know of an app that will convert pdf file to a .doc or something OOo writer can handle
[06:27] <defrysk> hugsy first sudo apt-get build dep hal
[06:27] <defrysk> or something
[06:27] <daxxar> Hrm. XFCE made my GTK-app look nice, but it takes so long to start xfce4. Any alternative wm that'll theme the gtk-app nicely, or any way to get xfce to start quicker? (it has this loading-screen that takes a long time to finish)
[06:27] <hughsie> chuckyp: thanks for that, but that's what I'm doing. fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage gets to installing the patches and blows up
[06:27] <defrysk> hugsy first sudo apt-get build-dep hal that should be
[06:27] <chuckyp> daxxar, try #xubuntu
[06:28] <chuckyp> hughsie, hrm.. not really sure then.  Dont' have much experience with cvs stuff.
[06:28] <daxxar> chuckyp, thanks.
[06:28] <hughsie> okay, thanks.
[06:29] <ikaruga2099> i've installed both qt4 and qt3 dev files.... when I run .configure on a file... I get a you're using qt3 error message.... when I set the QTDIR variable... I still get the same error message
[06:29] <defrysk> what file ?
[06:30] <ikaruga2099> defrysk: I mean... when I run .configure to install
[06:30] <dn4> anyone know where I can download ubuntustudio??
[06:30] <defrysk> yes what file are you trying to compile ?
[06:30] <chuckyp> jorgp, there is an app called textmaker but don't know how well it works
[06:30] <vakuum> Heya, Anyone knows how to boot ubuntu to maintenance mode ?
[06:31] <chuckyp> dn4, ubuntustudio.com
[06:31] <ikaruga2099> defrysk: ktoon...which requires qt4 (but I'm using qt3 for skype and scribus)
[06:31] <chuckyp> vakuum, maitenance mode?
[06:31] <winga> chuckyp, i'm still having the same problem
[06:31] <chuckyp> vakuum, you mean single user mode?
[06:31] <tti> sorry to be of nuissance again... my SMB share was working for like 2 minutes... then stopped working, now i restarted and my windows box stlil cant login to my ubutu box... i ever retried #smbpasswd -a    and it still ididnt work.
[06:31] <winga> chuckyp, i can't seem to get the text to show up
[06:31] <chuckyp> winga, hrm... what program is it?
[06:32] <winga> chuckyp, well yesterday it was ut2004 installer, now its netscape installer
[06:32] <defrysk> ikaruga2099, is that a comic reader ?
[06:32] <vakuum> chuckyp, i only got one harddrive, and i need to fsck it, so i was told to use maintenance mode to be able to unmount it and fsck it
[06:32] <chuckyp> winga, are you using wine?
[06:32] <winga> chuckyp, i thought yesterday was a coincidence
[06:32] <winga> chuckyp, no
[06:32] <jorgp> chuckyp, thanks
[06:32] <ikaruga2099> defrysk: no, it's an animation studio...looks very promising
[06:32] <chuckyp> vakuum, fsck -f then reboot will check it on reboot
[06:32] <defrysk> I see
[06:33] <chuckyp> vakuum, so you would do soemthing like fsck -f /dev/hda1   I believe and reboot  I might be wrong on that switch someone else can confirm.
[06:33] <chuckyp> winga, hm... did you install mstcorefonts?
[06:33] <winga> chuckyp, any idea what font it wants?
[06:33] <winga> chuckyp, yeah
[06:34] <chuckyp> winga, that would be the only one I would maybe try that would cause that sort of issue.  But mostlikely the font the installer wants is missing is why there is no text but just a drawn window.
[06:34] <vakuum> chuckyp, seems to work. ty
[06:34] <chuckyp> vakuum, k gl
[06:34] <tti> sorry to be of nuissance again... my SMB share was working for like 2 minutes... then stopped working, now i restarted and my windows box stlil cant login to my ubutu box... i ever retried #smbpasswd -a    and it still ididnt work.
[06:35] <ikaruga2099> defrysk: anyway, I set the variable it was asking for using export QTDIR=/usr/include/qt4.....

[06:40] <stojance> Is the code for ubotu the bot open source. I need to make a similar bot, but I have no Idea how?
[06:40] <LSD`> dn4: .org? try ubuntu.com
[06:40] <cipher> sudo -i will do root for that terminal window, but create a different session with different logs, etc. for specific tasks than the current user
[06:40] <chuckyp> yukio, maybe it can't do 100hz
[06:40] <LSD`> dn4: I screwed up, I'm used to Linux sites being on .org domains
[06:40] <chuckyp> yukio, i dunno

[06:41] <cipher> how do you mute someone in iirc?
[06:41] <dings_> defrysk: It doesn't seem to be an authority problem, I thought it was a frontend or priority issue, but I tried specifying with no effect
[06:41] <trappist> MadDog011: if you must, sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[06:41] <chuckyp> winga, hrm is that from the netscape site sorry i've never tried to install it.
[06:41] <LSD`> MadDog011: dpkg -i <package>
[06:41] <winga> yeah
[06:41] <LSD`> chuckyp: /ignore <troublemaker> ?
[06:41] <trappist> MadDog011: but that's usually inadvisable

[06:41] <LSD`> cipher: /ignore <troublemaker> ?
[06:41] <LSD`> chuckyp: ignore that
[06:41] <MadDog011> I had to get it ! cus the ubuntu server doesn't have Midnight Commander
[06:42] <LSD`> MadDog011: sudo apt-get mc ;)
[06:42] <winga> chuckyp, yeah, its a slightly older version from when they supported linux
[06:42] <trappist> MadDog011: you're sure about that?  sure seems unlikely
[06:42] <chuckyp> winga, hrm.. hold on let me check on something
[06:42] <MadDog011> trappist: I have no idea how to get it !
[06:42] <Marlun> Is there a linux command to get some information about the computer like cpu speed, amound of memory, etc?
[06:42] <MadDog011> trappist: apt-get doesn't havfe it on
[06:42] <winga> chuckyp, rgr
[06:42] <cipher> LSD`: thx
[06:42] <trappist> MadDog011: it's in the universe repo

[06:43] <ladydoor> hey, how do i install a new latex package that's not in the repositories (apa.cls)? since it's not a binary package or a regular source package, how do i go about installing it? is there some dir to put it into or do i need to install LaTeX from source?
[06:43] <MadDog011> Thank you trappist
[06:43] <gourdin> is there kde 3.5.5 somewhere ? ;)

[06:44] <SeanTater> Vornotron: why not use k3b or something?
[06:44] <LSD`> can someone explain to me what the deal is with iceweasel? Why is it necessary to rename firefox yet again?
[06:44] <lakbu> help
[06:44] <trappist> gourdin: sort of, but it's not officially released and it's fairly broken atm.
[06:44] <ladydoor> Vornotron: tried bashburn? it's very nice
[06:44] <defrysk> fire -> ice , fox -> weasel
[06:44] <LSD`> yukio: sure 100Hz is in the range defined in xorg.conf?
[06:44] <SeanTater> !helpme > lakbu
[06:44] <gourdin> trappist: ok :)
[06:44] <Vornotron> SeanTater: I'm automating, I need to run it from the command line.
[06:45] <gourdin> i'll wait
[06:45] <gourdin> =)
[06:45] <LSD`> defrysk: I realise that much, why is it deemed necessary?
[06:45] <lakbu> how to install my dell latitude d505 conexant modem
[06:45] <defrysk> dunno
[06:45] <boink> they're renaming firefox?
[06:45] <SeanTater> Vornotron: I think mkisofs can write the cd for you --
[06:45] <defrysk> something to do with adjustemt made ?
[06:45] <defrysk> adjustments*
[06:45] <SeanTater> Vornotron: but I could be wrong
[06:45] <Vornotron> mkisofs cannot actually burn CDs itself, from what I can tell
[06:45] <LSD`> defrysk: besides being exceptionally lame (and iceweasle not being that much better), what's the reason for the new name change
[06:45] <lakbu> !helpme
[06:45] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:46] <Haprog> I just noticed theres this ntfs-3g package available. does it really give full working read/write support for normal files as it claims? does it work without problems and is it safe?
[06:46] <Vornotron> It simply makes an .iso file designed to be burned to a CD.
[06:46] <lakbu> i dont know how to install my laptop's conexant modem, can anyone help me?
[06:46] <SeanTater> lakbu: pastebin the output when you run lspci in a terminal
[06:46] <defrysk> Vornotron, man cdrdao
[06:46] <defrysk> man growisofs
[06:46] <SeanTater> lakbu: did you actually get it in the computer yet?
[06:46] <chuckyp> winga, hrm.. I don't see anything in there about a font requirement for the installer
[06:47] <lakbu> SeanTater, yes. im using it right now
[06:47] <dings_> Does anyone have any ida why I get no interactivity with dpkg-reconfigure of exim4 and locales (tried with frontend=text and -plow)
[06:47] <SeanTater> lakbu: what's wrong?
[06:47] <lakbu> in lspci, i cant see a modem being detected
[06:48] <SeanTater> lakbu: but if you are using it at this moment, and it works, what's wrong about it?
[06:48] <winga> chuckyp, yeah this seems to be an isolated incident too because everything in the forums shows people having no problem with this portion of the install
[06:48] <chuckyp> winga, is there a reason you need netscape specifically
[06:48] <lara_> hola
[06:48] <lakbu> SeanTater, lspci | grep modem <-- nada
[06:48] <SeanTater> lakbu: okay
[06:48] <lakbu> SeanTater, im using the ethernet
[06:48] <SeanTater> lakbu: ah!
[06:48] <SeanTater> lakbu: okay
[06:48] <winga> chuckyp, i wanted to see if a few sites worked better, like launchcast
[06:48] <SeanTater> lakbu: does it have something to do with winmodem?
[06:49] <chuckyp> winga, most likeley a font problem but I wouldn't even know where to begin on finding which font it is.  Or if you had source we could try building a deb.   But it doesn't look like they provide source code.
[06:49] <lakbu> SeanTater, yes. it's built-in
[06:49] <SeanTater> lakbu: I've heard that winmodems are fdifficult to handle
[06:49] <J_P> hi all
[06:49] <lakbu> SeanTater, yes. i heard that :(
[06:49] <LSD`> SeanTater: depends on the chipset. I have a Lucent Mars here running fine in Linux
[06:49] <iratik> How do I create a symbolic link that isn't owned by root?
[06:49] <sysdoc> hey guys, I'm having a problem with the screensaver crashing X. I can't even open the screensaver applet without X crashing. Is there a way to change the screensaver from the CLI?
[06:50] <SeanTater> !winmodem > lakbu
[06:50] <winga> chuckyp, i know, i had the same problem with ut2004 but i got around it by installing it from only a console, didn't need to use the graphical installer
[06:50] <lakbu> SeanTater, i just thought someone from this channel has successfully configure
[06:50] <lakbu> ok
[06:50] <SeanTater> lakbu: ubotu any help?
[06:50] <lakbu> hehe
[06:50] <SeanTater> lakbu: sorry- I have not had a modem is years
[06:50] <winga> chuckyp, could it be a gtk config problem?
[06:51] <SeanTater> lakbu: come to think of it, I;ve never had a modem in linux
[06:51] <lakbu> SeanTater, same here. it's just that im going to a remote area this weekend.
[06:51] <chuckyp> winga, dunno thats just wierd I'm seeing if anyone has a .deb for netscape though.
[06:51] <LSD`> lakbu: connexant modems need drivers you have to pay for. Look for Linuxant
[06:51] <lakbu> SeanTater, and dial-up is the only connection i;ll have
[06:51] <winga> chuckyp, cool thanks
[06:51] <SeanTater> lakbu: eww
[06:51] <lakbu> LSD`, thanks
[06:51] <lakbu> SeanTater, thanks.
[06:51] <lakbu> ill try the links
[06:52] <nubbe> is there a problem with packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/?   I get an authentication error...
[06:53] <chuckyp> winga, the only thing I can find is old 4.x debs
[06:53] <SeanTater> nubbe: I get authentication errors occationally, but the mirror or site usually has a key you can download and authenticate using it
[06:53] <defrysk> nubbe : gpg --keyserver hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys 0x12B83718 ;  gpg --export -a 0x12B83718 | sudo apt-key add -
[06:53] <winga> chuckyp, thats all right, thanks man, i'll figure something out
[06:53] <SeanTater> nubbe: but I use fto.osuosl.org for debian etch, so I don't know about your specific issue
[06:54] <pantaloon> does anyone know where the fonts:/// folder is located?
[06:54] <SeanTater> nubbe: um ftp, not fto
[06:54] <nubbe> SeanTater, I did that, I have previously also, but it' still there
[06:54] <SeanTater> nubbe: as long as you trust the mirror, then, it's probably safe anyway
[06:54] <pantaloon> it doesn't seem to be in my home dir
[06:54] <winga> chuckyp, could it be i don't have a font folder setup right so that it uses it?
[06:54] <defrysk> nubbe read http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf
[06:54] <chuckyp> winga, alright.  hrm.. the only other thing I would try is running it via the live cd and see if the fonts are messed up booting from there.  Then you know its  a problem with your fonts or gtk setup.
[06:55] <chuckyp> winga, I can't even try to run the installer it errors out on me.
[06:55] <nubbe> defrysk, will do
[06:55] <winga> chuckyp, true, this is a fresh install though
[06:55] <chuckyp> winga, But may I ask why you spefically need netscape?
[06:55] <winga> chuckyp, hmm
[06:55] <ladydoor> pantaloon: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/
[06:55] <winga> chuckyp, i want to see if i can get launchcast to work
[06:55] <ladydoor> pantaloon: (for X11 fonts)
[06:55] <sykes^> Hi, I got a quick question about Ubuntu
[06:55] <chuckyp> winga, I bet thats what it is.  The french thing the installer probably isn't compaitible.
[06:56] <chuckyp> winga, launchcast internet radio?
[06:56] <defrysk> winga why not try last.fm ?
[06:56] <Ash-Fox> How does one broadcast global messages, like the way shutdown does?
[06:56] <sykes^> Is it possible to read NTFS partitions with Ubuntu? I got lots of stuff on those NTFS partitions I need
[06:56] <winga> chuckyp, w3rd, whats last.fm?
[06:56] <Ash-Fox> !ntfs
[06:56] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[06:56] <sykes^> Thanks
[06:57] <defrysk> winga just go there
[06:57] <defrysk> amarok can play from last.fm
[06:57] <defrysk> check it out ;)
[06:57] <catalytic> i was wondering if someone could help me to install the required java packages
[06:57] <pantaloon> ladydoor, don't see a fonts folder there
[06:57] <catalytic> for a new ubuntu installtion
[06:57] <ladydoor> pantaloon: what do you see?
[06:57] <chuckyp> winga, dunno what last.fm is but hold on I believe you can get launchcast working without netscape
[06:58] <catalytic> i have tried using the inbuilt synaptic program
[06:58] <winga> chuckyp, ok
[06:58] <catalytic> but it still doesnt appear to be installed correctly
[06:58] <pantaloon> ladydoor, 2 links to locale and xkb
[06:58] <grok> catalytic: the install is outlined in the java download readme
[06:58] <winga> defrysk, a buddy and i have a friendly competition to get our ratings high on launchcast though
[06:58] <sykes^> Last.fm is a website for music-freaks who want other people to see how much music t hey listen at :P
[06:58] <nubbe> defrysk, thanks a bunch  and u too SeanTater I had tried something else before, now it works
[06:58] <sykes^> I've listened to 2000 songs the past 6 days ^^
[06:58] <winga> haha
[06:58] <catalytic> from the java.sun site grok?>
[06:58] <grok> catalytic: you have to get it manually
[06:59] <pantaloon> ladydoor, oh, and a broken fs link
[06:59] <grok> catalytic: do you have firefox?
[06:59] <SeanTater> nubbe: yw
[06:59] <catalytic> i tried that as well
[06:59] <defrysk> winga, launchcast is not very friendly for linux
[06:59] <catalytic> i downloaded the .bin
[06:59] <catalytic> and then tried to use apt-get to install it
[06:59] <winga> defrysk, i know
[06:59] <quickshot> ciao a tutti
[06:59] <catalytic> yes i have firefox
[06:59] <defrysk> winga, also the soundquality is very poor there
[06:59] <grok> catalytic: one second, i'll find the link
[06:59] <catalytic> thankyou
[07:00] <defrysk> last.fm however is pretty good and has a great community
[07:00] <sykes^> Is Ubuntu (linux)noob-friendly btw?
[07:00] <pantaloon> ladydoor, oh nevermind, i found them in usr/share/X11/fonts
[07:00] <catalytic> another question
[07:00] <winga> defrysk, oh well
[07:00] <Acidic32> wat
[07:00] <catalytic> when i installed ubuntu
[07:00] <pantaloon> ladydoor, thanks for your help! :)
[07:00] <winga> defrysk, i might look into it
[07:00] <ladydoor> pantaloon: np
[07:00] <catalytic> i partioned 5 gig for the os as primary
[07:00] <catalytic> and another 5 gig as logical
[07:00] <grok> catalytic: http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp will give you the download, get the second one on the list
[07:00] <Acidic32> hello
[07:00] <catalytic> but the second 5 gig is not showing up anywhere
[07:00] <defrysk> winga, better stay away from linux unfriendly sites ;p
[07:01] <catalytic> do i need to partition it properly first?
[07:01] <defrysk> winga, and the last.fm player also runs on linux :)
[07:01] <catalytic> and if so are there any ubuntu friendly programs i should use to do this?
[07:01] <grok> Catalytic: you have to extract it, but also place a link to it in your firefox foldrer;. it's all outlined in the readme
[07:01] <sykes^> Guys, is Ubuntu noob-friendly? I'm 100% new to linux, but want to try it out
[07:02] <chuckyp> winga, http://www.pooyak.com/p/pklaunch/
[07:02] <grok> sykes^: yes ubuntu is noob-friendly. i just started w/ linux (using ubuntu) about a month ago and its worked great
[07:02] <defrysk> sykes^, try it
[07:02] <defrysk> sykes read https://help.ubuntu.com/
[07:02] <Acidic32> do any one on go on beboi
[07:02] <catalytic> thansk grok but i already downloaded that one
[07:02] <Dr_willis>  ubuntu is  people friendly :)
[07:02] <Khamael> sykes^: some lug`s (linux user groups) arrange install parties
[07:02] <defrysk> to get some info
[07:03] <sykes^> Que?
[07:03] <defrysk> dogwalktime
[07:03] <defrysk> and some que? too
[07:03] <winga> chuckyp, looks like just for videos, i wanted the radio, its ok though
[07:03] <Acidic32> im not gay
[07:03] <sykes^> grok Do you feel it is any good? having any problem?
[07:03] <chuckyp> No that should work for radio
[07:03] <defrysk> yes you are
[07:03] <grok> catalytic: did you place a link from the actual java file into your firefox plugins folder? because that's necessary
[07:03] <defrysk> ;p
[07:03] <ladydoor> how do i install a third-party latex package? it's not like regular source stuff; i'm pretty sure i need to put the file apa.cls and possibly some other items into a LaTeX dir somewhere, but i'm not sure where. do i need to reinstall LaTeX from source?
[07:04] <Acidic32> no im not so shut ya mouth
[07:04] <grok> sykes: the only problem i had was the sound, and that was my own stupidity
[07:04] <Khamael> sykes^: be sure that you know what you are doing when formatting
[07:04] <Khamael> sykes^: especially if you want dualboot
[07:04] <catalytic> ok
[07:04] <sykes^> ladydoor, go to city and check if any latex-guy wants to join in the "party".. lol that was a bad joke, nvm
[07:04] <catalytic> not yet grok, reading now
[07:04] <ladydoor> ugh
[07:04] <catalytic> is that so java embedded webpages will run properly?
[07:04] <chuckyp> ladydoor, Did you check with latex support
[07:04] <chuckyp> !latex
[07:04] <sykes^> I've installed SUSE etc before, but never really "used" it
[07:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about latex - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:05] <catalytic> i ran java -version in the console and it didnt work either
[07:05] <catalytic> so im guessing its not installed properly as well
[07:05] <ladydoor> chuckyp: i'm asking here because ubuntu is not a source-based distribution, and so figured the procedure would probably differ from normal.
[07:05] <selinuxium_> sykes^: The only 'problem' for most users is that media support needs to be added (mp3/dvd) and such. but it is really easy to do
[07:05] <chuckyp> winga, there is also http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Yahoo_launch
[07:05] <sykes^> Is there and pre-installed IRC client in Ubuntu? So I can join this channel again and ask if I need some help
[07:05] <fyrestrtr> selinuxium_: sure it is, its the licensing that's a slight problem :)
[07:05] <Acidic32> do u no any website to get a download of the new msn
[07:06] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: the livecd has an irc client, and so does the default install.
[07:06] <sykes^> Will delete the windows installation when I've burned Ubuntu to a cd
[07:06] <Acidic32> cause im confused the page is blocked
[07:06] <fyrestrtr> Acidic32: messenger.msn.com ?
[07:06] <sykes^> messenger.live.com
[07:06] <selinuxium_> fyrestrtr: I meant for the end user :) All we need to do is invent a new free codec that is 10 x better tham mp3 then we are laughing. Until then...
[07:06] <Acidic32> thankx
[07:07] <chuckyp> winga, and this guy got it going via wine http://www.flamecat.net/
[07:07] <ubuntu> hi all
[07:07] <Acidic32> any one no any porn sites
[07:07] <catalytic> how come when i use sudo and enter my password it works
[07:07] <catalytic> but when i just do su
[07:07] <catalytic> and use the same pw
[07:07] <catalytic> it doesnt work?
[07:07] <Vornotron> sudo uses /your/ password
[07:07] <sykes^> fyrestrtr, livecd? The ISO I'm downloading?
[07:08] <Vornotron> whereas su requires the /root/ password.
[07:08] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: if its the 'desktop cd' then yes, its the livecd.
[07:08] <sykes^> Acidic32, yeah, just search for G.W. Bush and you will tons of em
[07:08] <catalytic> when i installed
[07:08] <selinuxium_> sykes^: you can run striaght from the disc. it does not do anything to you windows partions unless you choose to install, then you can choose to 'dual boot'. Choose which operating system at startup
[07:08] <catalytic> i only entered one pw
[07:08] <catalytic> why are they both not set to that?
[07:08] <Acidic32> shers
[07:08] <sykes^> fyrestrtr, Think so, I downloaded the desktop version of Ubuntu
[07:08] <grok> catalytic: you can change the su password through sudo however (just type passwd, it will prompt you)
[07:08] <fyrestrtr> catalytic: because that would be the dumbest idea in computer security since Windows ME
[07:08] <fyrestrtr> !sudo > catalytic
[07:09] <catalytic> is that a command?
[07:09] <Vornotron> catalytic: ubuntu also disables root by giving it a blank password hash.
[07:09] <grok> catalytic: pardon me, the command is "sudo su" then enter pass, then type "passwd"
[07:09] <catalytic> ok
[07:09] <Vornotron> So in order to use root as root you need to set its password
[07:09] <sykes^> Does Wine X work under Unbuntu btw? I want to run Steam under there
[07:09] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: then that's a livecd, which means, if you boot your computer from the cdrom, it will have a running version of ubuntu that you can try out before installing it on your machine (it doesn't alter your hard disk). Then you can install it from the desktop cd itself.
[07:09] <ladydoor> !root
[07:09] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:09] <fyrestrtr> grok: its easier to just do sudo -i
[07:10] <grok> oh :D
[07:10] <sykes^> fyrestrtr, really? So I just pop in the CD and I can use Ubuntu? o.O
[07:10] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: yes, really :)
[07:10] <sykes^> Sweet :D
[07:10] <catalytic> ok, thanks grok
[07:10] <catalytic> done
[07:10] <sykes^> I love africa now
[07:10] <grok> np
[07:10] <sykes^> Or where it was made
[07:10] <fyrestrtr> it was made on Earth :)
[07:10] <fyrestrtr> a lot of people contribute to it.
[07:10] <sykes^> I love Mars! :D
[07:11] <fyrestrtr> it does have some alien technology in it.
[07:11] <fyrestrtr> !alien
[07:11] <ubotu> rpm is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous).
[07:11] <sykes^> lol
[07:11] <chuckyp> winga, your best bet might be to install ie via wine.
[07:11] <grok> lol alien
[07:11] <sykes^> !green men tech
[07:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about green men tech - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:11] <grok> catalytic: did the java work out right?
[07:12] <sykes^> So I can just use Ubuntu Desktop from the CD to see if I like it? (and learn something about linux)
[07:12] <winga> chuckyp, thats all right, i'll give up on it for now
[07:12] <catalytic> getting there
[07:12] <winga> chuckyp, thanks, i might look into last.fm
[07:12] <TheGateKeeper> sykes^: yep
[07:12] <Dr_willis> sykes^,  the live cd is a bit slower then an installed system. but very useable.
[07:13] <chuckyp> winga, I'm going to play with it a bit now you've peeked my interest to get it working.
[07:13] <Dr_willis> sykes^,  theres other live linux cd's that may be a little better done.. but they are all fun toplay with.
[07:13] <sykes^> Aight. And if I choose to install it, will Wine X work under it?
[07:13] <sykes^> Need to use Steam ^^
[07:13] <SuperMiguel>  how cna i get BlitzMax?
[07:13] <winga> chuckyp, well send me a pm if you get anywhere, i just didn't want to install wine
[07:14] <Alakazamz0r> mmm play with
[07:14] <chuckyp> winga, gotcha
[07:14] <catalytic> using the gui
[07:14] <catalytic> is there a way to perform a su action?
[07:14] <Dr_willis> Skygge__,  you aont going to be doing much gaming/instaling from the live cd.. If you install the system - you can try. BUT really for the best in games for the hard-core-alcoholic-addicted gamer. i have to say stick with windows and dual boot.
[07:15] <Dr_willis> Grr wrong nick. :P
[07:15] <catalytic> ie dragging a file from the desktop to the /usr/java/ folder?
[07:15] <fyrestrtr> catalytic: gksudo somecommand
[07:15] <Dr_willis> sykes^, ,  you aont going to be doing much gaming/instaling from the live cd.. If you install the system - you can try. BUT really for the best in games for the hard-core-alcoholic-addicted gamer. i have to say stick with windows and dual boot.
[07:15] <winga> chuckyp, unless i could play counterstrike source with it, then it's worth the install
[07:15] <catalytic> in mandrake it would pop up asking u for the pw
[07:15] <Dr_willis> The Steam Games/system just sort of ticked me off. :)
[07:15] <chuckyp> winga, yeah you can play source with it.
[07:15] <fyrestrtr> Dr_willis: you could say, it steamed you :)
[07:15] <Alakazamz0r> mandriva*
[07:15] <grok> catalytic: use mv FILENAME /usr/java/
[07:16] <sykes^> Dr_willis, so running windows games under linux sucks donkey *****?
[07:16] <Alakazamz0r> lol fyrestrtr
[07:16] <SuperMiguel> how can i install BlitzMax?
[07:16] <chuckyp> winga, I've got steam up and running on my other box.
[07:16] <Alakazamz0r> what the hells BlitzMax
[07:16] <Dr_willis> sykes^,  it all depends. and theres a LOT of things it depends on.  RUnning windows games under windows - is quickly becoming a HUGE hassle also.
[07:16] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: depends on the game -- and I suppose, the donkey.
[07:16] <catalytic> arrrrgh
[07:16] <winga> chuckyp, hmm, does it work well? i couldn't get steam to work well before
[07:16] <catalytic> how can i disable the pc speaker?
[07:17] <catalytic> so that everytime i backspace too far it doesnt keep going off?
[07:17] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: http://appdb.winehq.org is a good place to go to see how well your favorite windows game is supported under linux.
[07:17] <Dr_willis> catalytic,  depends. :P you can set most programs to not beep.. or use xset b 0 0 0 , to disable it
[07:17] <Dr_willis> catalytic,  this is in the shell? or your irc client?
[07:17] <catalytic> shell
[07:17] <KJ-ro> help .... anyonw could help me out whit some iptables related stuff ???
[07:17] <pike__> KJ-ro: ?
[07:17] <sykes^> fyrestrtr, will check that right after I find out where you mailbox lives and kick it's but for choosing such a annoying name to type for you :P
[07:17] <brenlae> i love ubuntu, i have everything working, DVD, 3D (i915, my 6600 GT broke :(), all codecs

[07:20] <Dr_willis> chuckyp,  yea - check the greaemonkey homepage yet?
[07:20] <chuckyp> no
[07:20] <winga> chuckyp, i think it was a font issue there too, or maybe just errors,
[07:20] <chuckyp> Dr_willis, No didn't really check
[07:20] <Dr_willis> catalytic,  google for how to silence the beeps. :P theres a dozen ways.
[07:20] <KJ-ro> question is .... how do i do it .. i tryed like this : (wait till i past in pastebin)
[07:20] <sykes^> http://appdb.winehq.org/screenshots.php?iAppId=1163&iVersionId=         steam seems to be running without a problem, and the graphics looks good to
[07:20] <brenlae> System > Administration > System Monitor is another way, Paddy_EIRE
[07:21] <catalytic> its done
[07:21] <Dr_willis> chuckyp,  last time i checked the firefox extension page - ya HAD to go to the gresemonkey page
[07:21] <catalytic> i didnt realise it was just in the shell, i thought it was happenign everywhere
[07:21] <fyrestrtr> jadacyrus: don't think they have a public one.
[07:21] <grok> anyone know why alsaconf does not work in ubuntu?
[07:21] <Paddy_EIRE> brenlae: I must be blind myself today :P cheers
[07:21] <chuckyp> Dr_willis, yeah but my version of firefox is too new.  they support up to 2.0b1 I have b2
[07:21] <brenlae> Paddy_EIRE, no problem ^^
[07:21] <chuckyp> Dr_willis, not a big deal on to getting wine working.
[07:22] <brenlae> i have to reboot, have to reconnect my card reader :s
[07:22] <brenlae> brb
[07:22] <catalytic> how good is the wine emulation?
[07:22] <doogers> for delet one floder from console?
[07:22] <djuuss> hey i have a problem, i need to change the dimensions of a large amount of pictures, need to make them 50% smaller. What do i use?
[07:23] <catalytic> photoshop action?
[07:23] <arijit> gimp is a good choice
[07:23] <catalytic> or a batch file?
[07:23] <catalytic> does gimp have batch actions?
[07:23] <doogers> for delet one floder from console?
[07:23] <djuuss> both sound good, how would i set it up to shrink a number of files ?
[07:24] <arijit> If u want to do it from a batch file then Imagemagick also can be used .....
[07:24] <sykes^> Another question: Does Ubuntu use alot of system resources?
[07:24] <djuuss> sykes^, it can
[07:24] <mcphail> djuuss: use "convert" from imagemagick or the netpbm utilities
[07:25] <sykes^> Define "it can" please :P
[07:25] <KJ-ro> pike__: finally ... here http://pastebin.com/804088

[07:30] <blkish> hi everyone :) - i'm having some trouble installing ubuntu (6.06/LTS) on a p4 2.4/512/3ware 8506 raid. The live CD starts OK, and the installer almost completes, but crashes just after setting up locales. The installer log shows 'chpasswd: line 1: unknown user staff', ubiquity then exits. any ideas much appreciated. full log at http://pastebin.com/804094
[07:30] <catalytic> i tried something like that before fyre and i got this error

[07:30] <catalytic> Building dependency tree... Done
[07:30] <catalytic> E: Couldn't find package sun-java5-jdk
[07:30] <catalytic> is that because i dont have the right repo?

[07:34] <KJ-ro> >>>> pastebin not working greate .. anyone know a better location ???  <<<<
[07:34] <mcphail> djuuss: first save it as /home/djuuss/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/halfjpeg
[07:35] <catalytic> i found it in the synaptic
[07:35] <mcphail> djuuss: then make it executable (chmod +x /path/to/script)
[07:35] <catalytic> i was searching for java and not j2sdk :P
[07:36] <mcphail> djuuss: then highlight the jpegs in nautilus  right click  scripts  halfjpeg
[07:36] <winga> chuckyp, you play cs source then on linux?
[07:36] <chuckyp> winga, yeah i'm installing it now on this box crap for got the tahoma font
[07:36] <mcphail> djuuss: it will put the smaller files in a directory called "reduced"
[07:36] <KJ-ro> anyone could help me whit iptables firewall port forwarding ??? pls...
[07:37] <ofer> how do I clear local DNS cache on my PC

[07:37] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[07:37] <winga> chuckyp, sweet, let me know how it works, i'm thinking of buying it
[07:37] <catalytic> hmmm it says some packages have unresolvable dependencies
[07:37] <djuuss> mcphail, ah nice. Time to learn a proper language and turn it into a program. "shrink <percentage> <filenames, can be wildcard>"
[07:37] <djuuss> thats gonna be my next project
[07:37] <chuckyp> winga, alright I pretty much play the old cs not really a big fan of source though.
[07:37] <Razerious> When I try to boot Ubuntu it freezes when it starts loading the network devices. If I press ctrl + c and continue it freezes when it starts loading my desktop (after logging in). I've got a Linksys WMP54G network card. Anyone have any idea what I can do to resolve this problem? Thanks :)
[07:38] <chuckyp> winga, theres a good howto at http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wiwimod/index.php?page=HOWTO+Steam&back=HOWTO+INDEX+Wine+Games
[07:38] <mcphail> djuuss: that is what "convert" can do quite easily! ;)
[07:38] <winga> chuckyp, yeah, i like source, the old version is the one i used to have problems with, i think it was because of the updates to it
[07:38] <djuuss> mcphail i dont get convert :P
[07:38] <MadDog011> how do you install Drivers for atheros on a UBUNTU-SERVER ?
[07:39] <mcphail> djuuss: what do you mean?
[07:39] <winga> chuckyp, hmm they do have an updated howto there then, they didn't last time i looked
[07:39] <CarlFK> after apt-get install postgresql - is there a user/pw setup ?
[07:39] <djuuss> mcphail, its not working. Script doesnt make a new folder with smaller files
[07:40] <chuckyp> winga, not really but it still works.  Just apt-get the win package and install that tahoma.ttf font.
[07:40] <KJ-ro> fyrestrtr: where you telling me that ??? i found out .. but thnx... could you help me look through my port forwarding ???
[07:40] <mcphail> djuuss: did you install netpbm?
[07:40] <djuuss> yes
[07:40] <djuuss> but i have to go :(
[07:40] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: sure, what do you want help with?
[07:41] <winga> chuckyp, then just run the steam installer?
[07:42] <djuuss> mcphail, how would i tell convert to do what your script does?
[07:42] <KJ-ro> i need help whit port forwarding .. this won't take too long... want a second opinion .. on the subject....
[07:42] <mcphail> djuuss: as is said above, the script is quite crude. It doesn't do any error checking, and assumes you have read and write permissions
[07:42] <chuckyp> winga, well wine steaminstaller.exe it will create the directories for you.  Then after it comes up it will have font issues just close it and copy that font to the directory on those instructions.  Then you can continue installing.
[07:42] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: you really haven't asked a question yet :)
[07:43] <KJ-ro> well it's not a question it a need help .. to check if i did it right... :p
[07:43] <catalytic> how do i find out what repo i need to add to install a package?
[07:43] <mcphail> djuuss: djuuss what is the output of "which pnmtojpeg"?
[07:43] <fyrestrtr> catalytic: what package?
[07:43] <KJ-ro> here is pasted the entire iptables configuration: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26180/
[07:43] <catalytic> j2sdk1.4
[07:43] <winga> chuckyp, hmm, i might do that sometime, i miss my cs
[07:43] <djuuss> /usr/bin/pnmtojpeg
[07:43] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: well, easiest way to test that, is to [a]  check the log, [b]  try to connect to your port from outside.
[07:43] <djuuss> mcphail, 3 lines up
[07:43] <winga> chuckyp, thats why i installed ut2004, haha
[07:44] <mcphail> djuuss: and you right-clicked on a selected jpeg (or group of jpegs)?
[07:44] <KJ-ro> most of it should work .. what i am worried about is the port forwarding part... ... yeah but i can not connect from outside... ... :(
[07:44] <chuckyp> winga, well ut2004 has a native linux version
[07:44] <djuuss> mcphail, i could choose the script but it didnt do anything, not even make the directory, the dir is chmodded 777
[07:44] <fyrestrtr> !java > catalytic
[07:45] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: check the output of /var/log/messages
[07:45] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: iptables should report there.
[07:45] <winga> chuckyp, thats why i bought it, and they have some cs-like mods now, i wanted to try a few
[07:45] <winga> chuckyp, what i really need is a better pc
[07:45] <catalytic> thanks fyre but is that going to help me isntall the jdk as well?
[07:45] <ultm8> hi everybody
[07:45] <ultm8> :oD
[07:46] <mcphail> djuuss: very odd! Sorry, i can't remeber the convert syntax off the top of my head. Try "man convert". The netpbm docs are quite good
[07:46] <chuckyp> winga, yeah never got a chance to really get in to ut2004.
[07:46] <mcphail> (sorry - i meant imagemagick docs)
[07:46] <winga> chuckyp, its ok, still miss my cs though
[07:47] <rsl> Howdy, kittens!
[07:47] <catalytic> my ubuntu doesnt have software properties
[07:47] <catalytic> is it a newer version?
[07:47] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: you need to enable ip forwarding if your gateway is doing NATing.
[07:47] <Moataz> Hi
[07:47] <catalytic> or included in the in the synaptic?
[07:48] <mini_gamer1896> winga, i understand that cs runs under wine

[07:49] <pike__> Moataz: yes
[07:49] <KJ-ro> the only question is .. i gess : for say an online game that connects from an internal PC to the servers specified ports.. then the server connects the the int pc's specifeied port... but the game server sees only the real ip of the router.. that forwards trasfic to my ubuntu server that get's trafic on the input port and forwards evcerithing that came in that port to the specified internal address, is this right ?....And you don't need to make a rule for the
[07:49] <Moataz> thanks, i will install it in the following sew days
[07:49] <pike__> Moataz: write support is available but problemati
[07:49] <winga> mini_gamer1896, ya
[07:50] <Moataz> pike_:thanks, bye,
[07:51] <KJ-ro> fyrestrtr: now you know why i didn't ask question ... :D
[07:51] <KJ-ro> did you understand what i am trying to find out
[07:51] <KJ-ro> ?
[07:51] <finalbeta> Can someone give me a line from his fstab, where an ntfs partition was auto set up by ubuntu?
[07:51] <ultm8> heres a question
[07:51] <edzieba> Quick question on Ubuntu install (6.06 LTS): It booted up fine, but after clicking 'install', it's taken approx 45 mins to go from a white rectangle to the first menu, and is still unresponsive
[07:51] <ultm8> sometime my ubuntu restarts itself when i log in
[07:51] <KJ-ro> finalbeta ... it's posible to mount an ntfs partition writable
[07:51] <CromagDK> question: is it possible to run fsck from a liveCD ?
[07:51] <ultm8> it can restart upto 3 times before i can log into my box
[07:51] <ultm8> any ideas?
[07:51] <edzieba> Is there any way to install directly without booting the liveCD
[07:52] <KJ-ro> finalbeta a sec i past to you ...
[07:52] <finalbeta> ok
[07:52] <ultm8> yeah do a text install
[07:52] <czekista> hello
[07:52] <Samuli^> what does CVS stand for?
[07:53] <CromagDK> !cvs
[07:53] <ubotu> cvs is the Concurrent Versions System, the dominant open-source network-transparent version control system; it helps to manage releases and to control concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. See: https://www.cvshome.org/

[07:53] <isthisnicktaken> mine is read only
[07:53] <edzieba> how do I start the text install?
[07:53] <KJ-ro> try and search google for instalation instruction to ntfs 3g
[07:53] <finalbeta> KJ-ro, that's not a default form ubuntu, needs those beta drivers right?
[07:53] <ultm8> oh boy
[07:53] <isthisnicktaken> mine is default
[07:53] <isthisnicktaken> /dev/hda1       /media/hda1     ntfs    defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[07:53] <finalbeta> thnx, that's the one I needed
[07:53] <isthisnicktaken> np
[07:54] <KJ-ro> no it's not .. but the default ubuntu dosn't allow you to write to that partition.. this way you can mount it writable ... i am using it this way since a while and it is working perfectly...
[07:54] <ultm8> ok the way i did it was like this i downloaded the alternative ubuntu cd from there site
[07:54] <ultm8> this gives u the text install option
[07:55] <ultm8> your probably using the livecd version
[07:55] <ultm8> i'm not sure if it has a text install option
[07:55] <omar__> Guys, I am gonna install Windows in my PC, and I have xubuntu, how can I do it without touching my xubuntu
[07:55] <ultm8> oooh omar
[07:55] <isthisnicktaken> yeah.....
[07:55] <isthisnicktaken> vmware?
[07:55] <ultm8> u've done it the wrong way around install windows then install xubuntu
[07:56] <ultm8> windows writes over ubuntu installs
[07:56] <czekista> i'm trying to install driver for canon laser shot printer as it is said in ubuntu wiki but after typing "sudo /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p LBP2900 -m CNCUPSLBP2900CAPTK.ppd -v ccp:/var/ccpd/fifo0 -E" it returns "lpadmin: Unable to copy PPD file!"? why? i'm tried to put the whole path to that ppd file, and i'm sure it exist. i have also changed permissions to fifo0 as said in manual so why it still can't copy that file?
[07:56] <[BTF] Chm0d> hmm i still have no direct rendering?  ive Looked on the web but nothing is really helping
[07:56] <czekista> sorry for long and unconvinient question ;(
[07:56] <ubutom> ultm8, thats not right, it just overwrites grub, not the whole linux installation
[07:56] <czekista> and for my english too ;)
[07:57] <KJ-ro> fyrestrtr or pike :... re.... so ? the port forwarding .... do i have to do it only one way from ext to int.. or the other way around ...????
[07:58] <KJ-ro> czekista: did you check capitalization....
[07:58] <czekista> KJ-ro: capitalization? O_o
[07:58] <KJ-ro> czekista: i mean ... case .... you know A and a ....
[07:58] <czekista> KJ-ro: you mean big and small letters? yes, it is correct
[07:59] <omar__>  ultm8 ubutom so what can I do
[07:59] <romaluca> is there a repository for eclipse sdk 3.2?

[07:59] <NikolaBorisov> hi, I have the following problem with my Ubuntu 6.06. I somehow lost my System->Quit menu. Now when i click on System -> Quit it logs me off to the Ubuntu login screen. That is not what i want if i just wanted to Lock the screen. Can someone help me get back all the options in the System-> Quit,
[07:59] <KJ-ro> the .ppd part is courious ... why only the .ext is lower case... ..
[07:59] <isthisnicktaken> romaluca: I couldnt find one when I needed to install it the last time.  I just grabbed it from the website...it works fine
[07:59] <czekista> i was told something about free drivers for canon laser shot that has now 0.1 version. is it useable?
[08:00] <ubutom> omar__,  you can install windows (on antoher partition than your ubuntu is on), and then you use the livecd to write grub back onto the disk.
[08:00] <Paddy_EIRE> hi all I've just downloaded "LastFM_Linux_1.0.0b.tar.bz2" and would like to know if this is installable in ubuntu and how I would go about doing that???
[08:01] <mots> well
[08:01] <gnomefreak> !compile > Paddy_EIRE
[08:01] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: I think its easier for you if you use something like shorewall
[08:01] <mots> i have a problem with kde-apps on edgy
[08:01] <gnomefreak> Paddy_EIRE: read the pm from ubotu
[08:01] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[08:01] <fyrestrtr> mots: ask in #ubuntu+1
[08:01] <valcom> Hello :)
[08:01] <ultm8> hi omar
[08:01] <catalytic> well.... ubuntu just shat itself for a good 10 mins then

[08:02] <valcom> JMicron support for P5B motherbroad work with the daily live (today) of ubuntu edgy ?
[08:02] <ultm8> doh not registered
[08:02] <KJ-ro> fyrestrtr : i never tryed anithing else than iptables... :)   .. but i mostly used other sources.. modified them ... but this time i did not find what i was looking for ...
[08:02] <winga> defrysk, did the download of the player suck for you?
[08:03] <KJ-ro> and wanted to learn a litle..... geting in to things like this makes you lear a thing or more...
[08:03] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: shorewall is just a front end to iptables, with it, you can see how ip tables commands are generated for your configuration. Easier to learn that guessing :)
[08:03] <dougsko> anybody know the actual file epiphany uses for file/program  associations?
[08:03] <ultm8> omar go to ubuntu.com

[08:04] <omar__> ok
[08:04] <ubutom> omar__, well I`m not an expert with this either, but you have to install grub again, or there is the other way, that you add ubuntu to the windows bootmanager ntldr :) but i have never done it that way ;)

[08:31] <sykes^> I seriously hate 1025x768 :D

[08:33] <ultm8> HI DAD
[08:34] <MadDog011> I got a question, about a Bridge
[08:34] <GeorgeM36Gr> ok ok here it goes again... anyone with a core2duo cpu?
[08:35] <kendootaku> Hello
[08:35] <unzeen> i have a problem, gdebi won't install a package because my python packages are called python2.4-foo instead of just python-foo. any way of aliasing pkgs or telling it to ignore dependencies?
[08:35] <host`> what's the fstab entry to make ntfs writable?
[08:35] <Enselic> when you use tools that output lots of lines in the terminal, it can be hard to stop where it all "starts" (because the color for all text is the same usually)
[08:35] <seraphim> !ntfs
[08:35] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[08:35] <MadDog011> I am making a bridge between two network connections, and when I plug in the wireless, and br0 everything works allright computers ping each other everything is ok between the wireless network and the Bridge, but when I plug in the other network in the Bridge, I lose connection to both networks from the bridge PC :| Why is that?
[08:35] <Enselic> is there a way to set a different backgroundcolor for martin@martin-laptop $ for instance?
[08:37] <seraphim> hm. host`: ntfs isn't writable except you build an own kernel or install captive
[08:38] <pike__> Enselic: eh?
[08:38] <Enselic> pike__: let's say you do a 'make'
[08:38] <Enselic> then you gets lots of output
[08:39] <sykes^> Am I running "Hoary Hedgehog or Breezy Badger" if I just installed Ubuntu and using nVidia 6600GT?
[08:39] <Enselic> now, you only want to know the output of the *latest* make
[08:39] <Enselic> but to locate that, you need to find the line where you issued 'make'
[08:39] <seraphim> sykes^: depends on which version you installed :D
[08:39] <Enselic> but that line is hard to spot, becaues it doesn't stand out
[08:39] <Sourcey> How would I enable my atheros wireless adapter in Ubuntu?
[08:39] <SeanTater> sykes^: when did you /dowload the cd/?
[08:39] <Enselic> so: how do I get it to stand out?
[08:39] <SeanTater> sykes^: /download/
[08:39] <sykes^> Like 30 minutes ago
[08:40] <Sourcey> Any wireless setup tools?
[08:40] <SeanTater> sykes^: It's dapper then
[08:40] <SeanTater> sykes^: not breezy or hoary
[08:40] <sykes^> A what?
[08:40] <sykes^> I'm a complete linux noob
[08:40] <pike__> Enselic: oh. i might answer that might not ... lemme see one sec
[08:40] <sebakiller> hi
[08:40] <SeanTater> sykes^: dapper is newer
[08:40] <sykes^> Ok, so what should I do on option #4? (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia)
[08:40] <host`> Sourcey all I did for my wlan is first 'sudo ip addr' to find out the name of the device
[08:40] <host`> mine is rausb0
[08:41] <SeanTater> sykes^: Ubuntu's releases are warty, hoary, breezy, dapper, and edgy, which will release in a while
[08:41] <mini_gamer1896> stupid question, what's the apt-get command to get the gnome desktop?
[08:41] <NeedHelp> Hey Dyn_afk or Firestarter, i got the drivers installed...any links on how to do the Clone or dual displays?
[08:41] <sebakiller> im looking for something precious
[08:41] <SeanTater> sykes^: dapper is the latest ans the most stable
[08:41] <host`> 'sudo iwlist scan' 'sudo iwconfig devicename essid essidname'
[08:41] <Sourcey> host, there is no ath0 listed
[08:41] <sykes^> I have no idea what you are talking about :D But what should I do on option #4?
[08:42] <SeanTater> sykes^: I see no option #4 in the page you tole me
[08:43] <SeanTater> sykes^: /told/
[08:43] <Sourcey> host`:http://rafb.net/paste/results/AtHtE620.html
[08:43] <host`> Sourcey, then you might need to install the driver
[08:43] <sykes^> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia after "Install and activate drivers"
[08:43] <sykes^> "If you are running Hoary Hedgehog or Breezy Badger, then install nvidia-settings and nvidia-xconfig. DO NOT install either package in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS because it will remove nvidia-glx. These programs are now provided in nvidia-glx."
[08:43] <Sourcey> host`: http://rafb.net/paste/results/AtHtE620.html
[08:43] <kalosaurusrex> how can I tell what version of ubuntu I'm running?  I recall there being a command but I can't remember what the command is..
[08:43] <Sourcey> Does that mean the driver is loaded?
[08:43] <Foc> kalosaurusrex: uname -r
[08:43] <SeanTater> sykes^: you have Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, (which is a fancy ways of saying dapper), so no, you don;t need to do it
[08:43] <sebakiller> anyone know where i can find NT source code?
[08:44] <sykes^> So I just skip step 4?
[08:44] <SeanTater> sykes^: yes, skip it
[08:44] <sykes^> Oki
[08:44] <host`> Sourcey, what is the irda0?
[08:44] <kalosaurusrex> Foc: yeah that gives the kernel info, but there was another command that would specifically display the ubuntu version..
[08:44] <SeanTater> sykes^: you know how windows released 3.0 then 95, then 200, then XP, and soon vista?
[08:44] <Foc> kalosaurusrex: cat /etc/issue
[08:44] <Sourcey> host`: i've no idea
[08:44] <host`> that's probably it then
[08:45] <Sourcey> host`: this is a fresh install and i'm a linux noob :)
[08:45] <host`> try doing 'sudo iwlist irda0 scan'
[08:45] <sykes^> SeanTater: Yeah?
[08:45] <SeanTater> sykes^: similarly, ubuntu released warty, then hoary, then breezy, then dapper, and soon edgy
[08:45] <dyn-afk> NeedHelp I'd go to ubuntuforums.org and do a search on dual screen
[08:45] <kalosaurusrex> Foc: lol yeah that works as well. but the /etc/issues can change depending on what someone puts in there. so I was hoping there was a more concrete method.
[08:45] <NeedHelp> Sykes^, i got that installed
[08:45] <Sourcey> ok
[08:45] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ooh, ok
[08:45] <NeedHelp> i just tryied that dyn, but can't find what i need

[08:45] <sykes^> NeedHelp: Ah
[08:46] <NeedHelp> ya...a sick new dell xps
[08:46] <Sourcey> host`: interface doesn't support scanning
[08:46] <host`> hmm
[08:46] <sykes^> SeanTater: Yup. But I'll be bugging someone in here if I can't get it to work ;)
[08:46] <Foc> kalosaurusrex: I don't know others cmds. :p
[08:46] <kalosaurusrex> Foc: okay thanks!
[08:46] <Foc> kalosaurusrex: for nothing
[08:46] <host`> Sourcey, do you know the chipset that the adapter uses?
[08:47] <kalosaurusrex> Foc: nah it was a good shot :)
[08:47] <Sourcey> I'm not sure. Could it be atheros?
[08:47] <Sourcey> My laptop is a thinkpad T60
[08:47] <Foc> kalosaurusrex: heh, ok
[08:47] <dani> hello everybody
[08:47] <host`> I don't know, there is a reference for that, hold on

[08:52] <SeanTater> sykes^: precicely
[08:52] <dani> however sykes^ i dont think my xorg.conf has been altered
[08:52] <host`> I thought you said you were having problems getting it to work?
[08:52] <Sourcey> host`: wired network works fine, wireless doesn't
[08:52] <sykes^> Well, I got zero linux experience
[08:52] <host`> oh, wired..
[08:53] <host`> yeah
[08:53] <dani> when i just plug out my sata card I reboot and it's ok.
[08:53] <host`> read too fast
[08:53] <SeanTater> sykes^: is this case, it's pretty easy
[08:53] <Sourcey> host`: :) Synaptic doesn't return results
[08:53] <sykes^> SeanTater: Oh?
[08:53] <host`> try searching for atheros
[08:53] <SeanTater> sykes^: in the terminal, type -> sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:53] <SeanTater> sykes^: then put in your password
[08:53] <Sourcey> host`: now i get many resulrts
[08:54] <Sourcey> linux-restricted-modules-<some kernel versions here>
[08:54] <sykes^> SeanTater: Um, I got alot of text here now
[08:54] <kalosaurusrex> Foc: check out man lsb_release has lots of good info :)
[08:54] <host`> see if you can find something relating to your card, it possible that you'll only get the souce
[08:54] <SeanTater> sykes^: exactly,
[08:54] <host`> ahh
[08:54] <SeanTater> sykes^: but don;t do anything yet
[08:54] <Foc> kalosaurusrex: ok, I will :)
[08:54] <SeanTater> sykes^: It's a text editor
[08:54] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ah
[08:54] <wickedly_cool> vi
[08:54] <SeanTater> sykes^: if you touch it, your system could be toast
[08:54] <dyn-afk> or use: linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[08:54] <Foc> kalosaurusrex: No LSB modules are available.
[08:54] <_xXX_> heloo
[08:55] <_xXX_> hello
[08:55] <SeanTater> wickedly_cool: nano is simpler for the newbie
[08:55] <sykes^> SeanTater: Aight, wont do anything
[08:55] <SurfnKid> do you know what happened to the opacity settings in compiz?
[08:55] <wickedly_cool> sorry dude im stondeed
[08:55] <SeanTater> sykes^: now, scroll down to the Driver saection
[08:55] <Sourcey> host`:Currently the following modules are included:
[08:55] <Sourcey>  - madwifi (Atheros)
[08:55] <sebakiller> anyone know where i can find NT source code?
[08:55] <Sourcey> (excerpt from a description)
[08:55] <MadDog011> I am making a bridge between two network connections, and when I plug in the wireless, and br0 everything works allright computers ping each other everything is ok between the wireless network and the Bridge, but when I plug in the other network in the Bridge I lose connection to the wireless and the other network, and after like 10sec I gain conneection to the network from the BRDIGE Server, but the wireless pings are not going any
[08:55] <dyn-afk> vi is cool and not that complicated if you have a command reference
[08:55] <sykes^> SeanTater: It's like only one page or something
[08:55] <GomezDen> When no one is logged into the system are crontab jobs still able to run?
[08:55] <SurfnKid> did you say NT??? as in microsoft code?
[08:56] <SeanTater> sykes^: ah!
[08:56] <SeanTater> sykes^: sorry-  I forgot to tell you how to scroll
[08:56] <sebakiller> surfnkid: yes
[08:56] <sykes^> SeanTater: ah, pgdn
[08:56] <SurfnKid> um not sure if ive evere heard anyone ask
[08:56] <SeanTater> sykes^: pres sth eup and down keys a few times, and watch
[08:56] <SurfnKid> probably google it
[08:56] <SeanTater> sykes^: that too
[08:57] <sebakiller> surfnkid: i looked there , it says that it has been stolen, but i cant find it
[08:57] <SeanTater> sykes^: found it?
[08:57] <sebakiller> anyone know where i can find NT source code?
[08:57] <SeanTater> sebakiller: ah-ha
[08:57] <sykes^> SeanTater: "Section "InputDevice""?
[08:57] <SeanTater> sebakiller: very fully
[08:57] <SeanTater> sykes^: not likely
[08:57] <Zaggynl> anyone knows of a 'now playing' plugin for rhythmbox for xchat2?
[08:57] <SeanTater> sykes^: keep scrolling
[08:58] <sebakiller> seantater: ??
[08:58] <sykes^> SeanTater: Found something about my gfxcard now
[08:58] <Sourcey> host`: Are you still with me? :P
[08:58] <SeanTater> sebakiller: Windows NT is not open source
[08:58] <sebakiller> seantater: it has been stolen
[08:58] <host`> yeah, try getting that
[08:58] <SeanTater> sykes^: found anything saying nv
[08:58] <sykes^> SeanTater: Yeah, it say 'Driver "nv"' under the gfxcard name
[08:59] <SeanTater> sykes^: good!
[08:59] <Sourcey> getting what?
[08:59] <SeanTater> sykes^: change "nv" to "nvidia"
[08:59] <sykes^> SeanTater: Done
[08:59] <SeanTater> sykes^: now press CTRL-O
[08:59] <k0rd> heh
[08:59] <k0rd> my ubuntu cd's are here
[09:00] <k0rd> :)
[09:00] <k0rd> time to go install
[09:00] <sykes^> SeanTater: Yup
[09:00] <Nailz> quick q if I may? the linux-k7 kernal is 64 bit yes?
[09:00] <SeanTater> sykes^: then press enter
[09:00] <SeanTater> sykes^: then CTRL-X
[09:00] <host`> ahh, I see what that is Sourcey.. hmm
[09:00] <sykes^> SeanTater: back to terminal now
[09:00] <host`> hold on
[09:00] <SeanTater> sykes^: good
[09:00] <Sourcey> host`: ok :)
[09:01] <SeanTater> sykes^: you'll need to do a quick restart, do you know how?
[09:01] <SeanTater> sykes^: as in, just X, not linux
[09:01] <Sp4rKy> please, i've got this message : "mount: unknown filesystem type 'iso9660'
[09:01] <sykes^> SeanTater: ctrl-alt-backspace?
[09:01] <Sp4rKy> when i try to mount an iso
[09:01] <sykes^> But should I run the "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" again?
[09:01] <host`> Sourcey, I think it is the madwifi driver that you need
[09:01] <sykes^> SeanTater: But should I run the "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" again?
[09:01] <SeanTater> sykes^: yes, but you'll need to save your documents first, so you don;t lose anything
[09:02] <SeanTater> sykes^: no, you just did it;s job
[09:02] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ok, so ctrl-alt-backspace now?
[09:02] <SeanTater> sykes^: yes, then come back and tell me if it worked
[09:02] <Sourcey> host`: How would I install that? Can I apt-get it? And... isn't it already loaded?
[09:02] <host`> no
[09:02] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ok, should I see the nvidia logo?
[09:02] <host`> I don't know that that is what you need
[09:02] <SeanTater> sykes^: yes
[09:02] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ok, brb
[09:03] <Sourcey> hmm
[09:03] <Homer_Linux> hiya ppl
[09:03] <tanja_> hello. Does anybody know the guys of linux-drivers.org or linux-projects.org ??
[09:03] <SeanTater> Homer_Linux: hello
[09:03] <Homer_Linux> sup SeanTater
[09:04] <Sp4rKy> please, i've got this message : "mount: unknown filesystem type 'iso9660'" when i try to mount an iso, any idea ?
[09:04] <host`> Sourcey, try doing 'sudo dmesg'
[09:04] <SiLOX> My computer wont start "devices/platform/i8042/serio0/serio2/bus errror" PLEASE HELP ME!!
[09:04] <Homer_Linux> anyone help me with this problem   i get when i run gedit from a terminal "(gedit:13003): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.        Using the fallback 'C' locale.(gedit:13003): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library"
[09:04] <SeanTater> SiLOX: do you have any serial devices connected?
[09:05] <host`> Sourcey, see if your device shows up when you do dmesg
[09:05] <rpedro> Sp4rKy: you need to put '-o loop' in the options, like this >>sudo mount -o loop image.iso mount_point/
[09:05] <Sourcey> host`: will try
[09:05] <deltab> Homer_Linux: run  locale
[09:05] <Sp4rKy> rpedro: i do !
[09:05] <SeanTater> sykes: good!
[09:05] <SiLOX> SeanTater no ive unplugged all that
[09:05] <SeanTater> sykes: I take it that it worked
[09:05] <tanja_> really nobody here who knows these guys ? :-(
[09:05] <SeanTater> SiLOX: hum
[09:05] <host`> pastebin it again if you can't tell
[09:06] <SiLOX> its a Dell Dimension 8100 Laptop
[09:06] <rpedro> Sp4rKy: something wrong with the iso then?
[09:06] <Sp4rKy> rpedro: i don't think
[09:06] <sykes> SeanTater: Yeah, buth after I typed in the usrname/pwd after I pressed the buttons, nothing happen so I had to reboot the bastard, but I saw a big fat nvidia logo
[09:06] <SeanTater> sykes: okay
[09:06] <rpedro> Sp4rKy: keep in mind only iso files work, others (mds, cue+bin) you need to convert to iso
[09:06] <Homer_Linux> deltab now i get "locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory"
[09:06] <SeanTater> sykes: not a bad speed for a reboot though
[09:06] <sykes> SeanTater: Still cant chagne resoulution though
[09:06] <Sourcey> host`: how can I grep this bulk of input?
[09:06] <Sourcey> I'm a linux newbie
[09:07] <Sourcey> *output
[09:07] <SeanTater> sykes: is it inadequate?
[09:07] <sykes> SeanTater: Um?
[09:07] <host`> I'm pretty noobish myself
[09:07] <Sp4rKy> rpedro: it's an iso (edgy desktop install) and md5sum is wright
[09:07] <SeanTater> sykes: is it too small?
[09:07] <host`> not to familiar with grep, it's been years since I've used it
[09:08] <sykes> SeanTater: I can max have 1024x768, but I want 1280x1024, if thats what you ment
[09:08] <host`> you might be better off getting help from someone else, my adapter was pretty easy to get running.
[09:08] <host`> Sourcey, if all else fails though you can use ndiswrapper
[09:08] <SeanTater> sykes: I had that, but It's pretty difficult to fix in comparison
[09:08] <SeanTater> sykes^: ^^
[09:09] <rpedro> Sp4rKy: what distro you using right now?
[09:09] <gh0zt> good
[09:09] <sykes^> SeanTater: So how should I do? :P
[09:09] <Sourcey> host`: I got it, pasting it now
[09:09] <SeanTater> sykes^: I remember how I did it, but I need to see the /correct/ way to do it, hold on
[09:09] <host`> alright
[09:09] <Sourcey> !pastebin

[09:10] <Sourcey> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26184/
[09:10] <sykes^> SeanTater: Isnt there a remote desktop thiny or something?
[09:10] <SeanTater> sykes^: I think I found it, say !res
[09:10] <sykes^> !res
[09:10] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[09:10] <cpk2> sykes^: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add in the line that says "modes" under "display and in the 24 depth section what res you want
[09:10] <KJ-ro> how can i tell iptables to log everithing in separate log file ... not syslog .... ???
[09:10] <sykes^> Should I? Is it safe?
[09:10] <sykes^> Don't want my computer to explode :P
[09:11] <host`> ahh
[09:11] <SeanTater> sykes^: to add the 24 depth and stuff, sure, afaik
[09:11] <cpk2> sykes^: yes, back up your old xorg.conf first
[09:11] <rpedro> Sp4rKy: then I don't know :( it works here, unless there's something wrong with the iso (did you check the md5sum?) or with the command line you're using
[09:11] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ok, wanna guide me through it? The back-up and everything?
[09:11] <host`> then your hardware isn't fully supported with the driver it's using
[09:11] <Sp4rKy> rpedro: yep, md5sum is good
[09:11] <cpk2> sykes^: if it doesnt work you can easily replace the working one with the none working one
[09:11] <Sourcey> host`: Crap :P
[09:11] <SiLOX> Can anyone help me? I get this error on boot, my computer wont start "devices/platform/i8042/serio0/serio2/bus errror"
[09:11] <k0rd> im installing Ubuntu atm, won't the Resize SCSI option dual-boot itself?
[09:11] <tarzeau> help i have debian!
[09:11] <SeanTater> sykes^: okay, to backup, do this: sudo cp  /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[09:12] <k0rd> tarzeau #debian
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: edit /etc/syslog.conf
[09:12] <SeanTater> tarzeau: then tell #debian !
[09:12] <tarzeau> is there a tool or script to convert my debian into ubuntu?
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> tarzeau: nope
[09:12] <Sourcey> host`: What's ndiswrapper?
[09:12] <host`> Sourcey, the best thing I can say to do it to download the source for your chipset, you can probably find it at the manufacturer's webpage
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> tarzeau: install from scratch :)
[09:12] <Jaak_> How do i make googleearthlinux.bin executable?
[09:12] <tarzeau> can you send me CD?
[09:12] <SeanTater> Sourcey: a wrapper that makes wifi drivers work
[09:12] <host`> ndiswrapper is a module that allows you to use windows drivers in linux
[09:12] <sykes^> SeanTater: hang on, im slow right now :P
[09:12] <SeanTater> sykes^: okay
[09:13] <host`> I consider it a last resort
[09:13] <Sourcey> but wit hcrappy performance?
[09:13] <fyrestrtr> Jaak_: chmod a+x googleearthlinux.bin
[09:13] <host`> ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net
[09:13] <host`> no, performance isn't crappy
[09:13] <k0rd> Will the "Resize SCSI1 and use freed space" dual-boot my XP & Ubuntu?
[09:13] <host`> it's just a pain in the ass in my opinion
[09:13] <MBursill> So I saw there's now a Ubuntu-desktop-effects team to focus on Compiz, AIGLX, and XGL. I also saw that QuinnStorm is an Administrator of the team. Does that mean Edgy is going to be seeing Beryl instead of Compiz?
[09:13] <Sourcey> aha
[09:13] <recon0> Is there any way to tie in the /var/spool mail system to an POP3/SMTP server system?
[09:13] <Sourcey> I have the source for my card, I just can't manage to install it
[09:13] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ok done it
[09:13] <fyrestrtr> k0rd: that's just a partitioning option, if you only have one disk, then I suppose you have no choice :)
[09:13] <Sourcey> it says it needs iee80211 something
[09:14] <SeanTater> k0rd: probably, but I've never tried it
[09:14] <_Gnea_> racarter: should be done automagically
[09:14] <k0rd> fyrestrtr, thanks, that's what i've been trying to do for the past 80 days lol
[09:14] <fyrestrtr> MBursill: don't know about that, but edgy comes with aiglx :) Better to ask in #ubuntu+1 or even #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:14] <MBursill> Anybody know how grub handles Vista partitions?
[09:14] <SeanTater> sykes^: okay, now, this edit may be a bit more difficult, so instead of sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf, let's use sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:14] <_Gnea_> fyrestrtr: what's the purpose of #ubuntu+1?
[09:15] <fyrestrtr> MBursill: it likes them with some coke.
[09:15] <SeanTater> sykes^: a graphical editor will appear
[09:15] <k0rd> how do you change the screen resolution on Ubuntu?
[09:15] <fyrestrtr> _Gnea_: its for discussion of edgy.
[09:15] <tarzeau> MBursill: it doesn't handle UFS parittions

[09:16] <cpk2> sykes^: if you use gedit dont use sudo use gksudo
[09:16] <host`> Sourcey, first off it looks like you need to install the headers
[09:16] <eracc> THX-1138, fyrestrtr - ha ha, very funny. :-p
[09:16] <Sourcey> host`: How would I do that?
[09:16] <sykes^> SeanTater: Think I'm already in gedit
[09:17] <eracc> rpedro, thanks, I'll see.
[09:17] <SeanTater> sykes^: so are you editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf now?
[09:17] <SeanTater> sykes^: did it work?
[09:17] <cpk2> sykes^: in the future dont do sudo gedit
[09:17] <SeanTater> cpk2: I realized that, sorry
[09:17] <k0rd> wow this partitioning takes forever
[09:17] <sykes^> SeanTater: Aye
[09:17] <sykes^> cpk2: Oki
[09:17] <SeanTater> cpk2: gksudo instead
[09:17] <host`> apt-get install linux-headers-yourkernelbuildhere
[09:18] <fyrestrtr> k0rd: correction, creating free space takes forever. Partitioning is very quick.
[09:18] <SiLOX> is there any RESCUE CD for Ubuntu????
[09:18] <host`> replace yourkernelbuildhere with the version of your kernel
[09:18] <SeanTater> SiLOX: It is a rescue cd
[09:18] <fyrestrtr> SiLOX: the desktop cd is the rescue cd.
[09:18] <k0rd> I had around 187 gb free

[09:18] <k0rd> i made 54.0 gb the Ubuntu partition, taking me a good bit of time
[09:18] <Bathmonster> can i get some help on my sounds card pls ?
[09:18] <fyrestrtr> k0rd: you should have ran defrag on your windows disk first.
[09:18] <fyrestrtr> k0rd: otherwise, go watch a movie and come back.
[09:18] <sykes^> SeanTater: Now what? I'm in the editor :P
[09:18] <SeanTater> sykes^: so, not look for a bunch of lies saying depth and res ans a bunch of numbers

[09:19] <k0rd> lol true, true
[09:19] <SeanTater> sykes^: /not/now
[09:19] <host`> I'm going though, try that and then if you need help get someone else to help you, they may be able to give better help anyway
[09:19] <SiLOX> SeanTater ohh okey ^^

[09:21] <sykes^> SeanTater: "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" instead of "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"?
[09:21] <SeanTater> sykes^: yes
[09:21] <sykes^> SeanTater: Oh and is it possible to use 32bits color depths?
[09:21] <SeanTater> sykes^: I did not think so, maybe
[09:21] <SeanTater> sykes^: try it for whichever is the highest already in there
[09:21] <miranda82> hello...
[09:21] <SeanTater> mirahello
[09:22] <xing_> Is there someone who can help me? I have a problem with my Internet connection.
[09:22] <miranda82> got a problem with my gdm session, and also trying to install gnome-session
[09:22] <SeanTater> miranda82: hello (tab problems, sorry)
[09:22] <sykes^> SeanTater: That's 24, added the 1280x1024 now
[09:22] <tanja_> fyrestrtr: thx, but I think that my cam is very special and sure not supported... I only found ONE page but there it is only available for companies...
[09:22] <miranda82> SeanTater, no problem :)
[09:22] <SeanTater> sykes^: then save it and restart again, only this time, log out to gdm are restart from the menu it has for it, maybe you will have better luck
[09:22] <fyrestrtr> k0rd: what game are you going to play?
[09:23] <sykes^> SeanTater: gdm?
[09:23] <SeanTater> sykes^: the login manager, it as a place to restart x
[09:23] <miranda82> when i login, it says: all updates finished, and then: I can't load your session, bla bla, and it loads an xterm, if i run then gnome-session it works, also loading a failsafe gnome session works
[09:23] <fyrestrtr> Max_-: what software?
[09:23] <xing_> Is there someone who can help me? I have a problem with my Internet connection.
[09:23] <sykes^> SeanTater: So I just press the reboot button up on the right and reboot the computer?
[09:24] <SeanTater> sykes^: sure, whichever, just restart..
[09:24] <fyrestrtr> xing_: what happens when you type ping google.com at a terminal ?
[09:24] <xing_> it works
[09:24] <sykes^> SeanTater: Sorry if I'm too stupid :P Brb
[09:24] <xing_> fyrestrtr: that works
[09:24] <fyrestrtr> xing_: what happens when you type telnet google.com 80
[09:24] <jorgg> where are the usb ports "dev"s?
[09:25] <Homer_Linux> still having problem with locale ive tryed "export LC_CTYPE=C,export LC_MESSAGES=C,export LC_ALL=C,dpkg-reconfigure locales" but still get problem "locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory "
[09:25] <xing_> fyrestrtr: Trying 64.233.167.99...
[09:25] <sivik> how do i go about uninsalling gnome
[09:25] <miranda82> when i login, it says: all updates finished, and then: I can't load your session, bla bla, and it loads an xterm, if i run then gnome-session it works, also loading a failsafe gnome session works
[09:25] <fyrestrtr> jorgg: think you want lsusb
[09:25] <xing_> fyrestrtr: after that I can type, nothing happens (since I'm not typing a HTTP header I guess)
[09:25] <miranda82> i can't finish updating through apt-, it stucks
[09:25] <fyrestrtr> xing_: anything after that?
[09:26] <unfg> hi i got a quick question.. i installed ubuntu server (no gui).. during setup it didnt detect a dchp connection.. so i set a static ip.. when i get logged in i have no internet access.. i cant ping other machines ips (behind the router) but i cant ping their hostnames.. when i set eth0 to dchp it doesnt find a IP.. any ideas?
[09:26] <xing_> fyrestrtr: no, nothing after that
[09:26] <fyrestrtr> xing_: it should say 'Connected to google.com' followed by Escape character is '^] '.
[09:26] <SeanTater> sykes^: You're trying, that's what matters..
[09:26] <xing_> oh, no, nothing happens
[09:26] <ikonia> has anyone had problems with centrino processors running at slower speeds than they should under ubuntu - cpufreq is complaining that the cpu is not supported ??
[09:26] <SeanTater> sykes^: did it work?
[09:26] <fyrestrtr> xing_: means that either port 80 is blocked, or you must use a proxy.
[09:26] <sykes^> SeanTater: Heh :) Well it booted up, ill try to change res now
[09:26] <SeanTater> sykes^: okay
[09:27] <xing_> fyrestrtr: I'm at a student place here, and I don't have acces to the router. Other students have the same problem, also in windows.
[09:27] <KJ-ro> fyrestrtr: i loked over the man for syslog.conf ... i understood that .... now i checked the log's to see what form dose iptables loging apear.. and it's kernel ... what i don't know is ... how could i separate from the other kernel logs ?
[09:27] <miranda82> when i login, it says: all updates finished, and then: I can't load your session, bla bla, and it loads an xterm, if i run then gnome-session it works, also loading a failsafe gnome session works, apt is stuck while trying to update gnome-session... any ideas?
[09:27] <fyrestrtr> xing_: so it seems like its not a problem with the operating system, but rather the network.
[09:27] <sykes^> SeanTater: Can't choose 1280x1024, and I cant change color depths, am I even in the right place?
[09:27] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: you need to tell it to log it another file by editing syslog.conf
[09:27] <SeanTater> sykes^: hum
[09:27] <SeanTater> sykes^: I don;t know then
[09:28] <xing_> fyrestrtr: yes. I didn't think of that, that port 80 might be blocked. I'll have to contact someone to configure the router I guess... Or do you know where I can find a proxy?
[09:28] <sykes^> Do you mind using rebote desktop and checking this out? If you feel like it that is
[09:28] <sykes^> remote
[09:28] <fyrestrtr> xing_: chances are, there is a proxy that you must use on the network. Ask the person incharge.
[09:28] <setuid> I need to force a purge of a package. I can't remove it normally or with dpkg -P, it says "subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1"
[09:28] <setuid> How do I do this?
[09:28] <SeanTater> sykes^: hum -- probably not
[09:28] <sivik> how do i use apt-get to uninstall gnome?
[09:28] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ok
[09:28] <fyrestrtr> setuid: what package is it?
[09:29] <KaroSHi> sivik: apt-get remove gnome
[09:29] <miranda82> hello?
[09:29] <cpk2> sykes^: pastebin your xorg.conf
[09:29] <SeanTater> sykes^: most of what I do is command line anyway
[09:29] <KaroSHi> or gnome-desktop i think
[09:29] <xing_> fyrestrtr: there's no proxy server here, it's just a small house where some students live. But I guess someone misconfigured that router. Thanks for helping anyway!
[09:29] <SeanTater> sykes^: follw cpk2, I'm stumped
[09:29] <setuid> fyrestrtr, gnome-session, gnome-control-center, xfwm4, nautilus and a bunch of others. Something is probably causing the others to fail.
[09:29] <stiz> anyone familiar with gnome-art?  where does gnome art store wallpapers, i want to use wallpaper-tray to randomly change wallpapers every 30min and it needs the directory
[09:29] <sykes^> SeanTater: Ok then, but thanks :)
[09:29] <fyrestrtr> setuid: what are you trying to do when it tries to uninstall that?
[09:29] <SeanTater> sykes^: yw
[09:29] <unfg> hi i got a quick question.. i installed ubuntu server (no gui).. during setup it didnt detect a dchp connection.. so i set a static ip.. when i get logged in i have no internet access.. i cant ping other machines ips (behind the router) but i cant ping their hostnames.. when i set eth0 to dchp it doesnt find a IP.. any ideas?
[09:30] <miranda82> anyone can help me please? i really don't know what else i can do..
[09:30] <sykes^> cpk2: Ok, gkedit on the conf?
[09:30] <fyrestrtr> stiz: try /use/share/pixmaps
[09:30] <setuid> fyrestrtr, dpkg -P gnome-control-center
[09:30] <setuid> dpkg -P xfwm4
[09:30] <setuid> Anything, basically
[09:30] <setuid> I could successfuly remove gdm though
[09:30] <sivik> KaroSHi, gnome is not installed, which is bull, cause i can log into it
[09:30] <setuid> Something broke in Ubuntu, and it can't render pngs on the panel or with gthumb or eog
[09:30] <fyrestrtr> setuid: why are you doing that?
[09:30] <cpk2> sykes^: you could just cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf and copy paste that into paste.bin or you could use gedit, whichever you want
[09:30] <fyrestrtr> setuid: are you using dapper or edgy?
[09:31] <setuid> fyrestrtr, Edgy in this case
[09:31] <SeanTater> Is it possible to remove gam-server and still have a useable linux computer?
[09:31] <miranda82> anyone can help me please? i really don't know what else i can do..
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> setuid: eh ... could be you ran into a bug. Best to check in #ubuntu+1
[09:31] <hondje> SeanTater: Yes, but do you mean a useable linux desktop system? :)
[09:31] <setuid> fyrestrtr, No, that's not my question. I asked how to force purge a pacakge.
[09:31] <fyrestrtr> unfg: does your network have dhcp?
[09:31] <sykes^> cpk2: Okay
[09:31] <SeanTater> hondje: yes
[09:31] <sykes^> !pastebin
[09:31] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[09:31] <unfg> fyrestrtr: yes
[09:31] <sivik> miranda82, whats the problem
[09:31] <SeanTater> hondje: a kde-debian one
[09:31] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  please run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade again
[09:32] <miranda82> Kevc978, it's stucked
[09:32] <sykes^> cpk2: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26188/
[09:32] <miranda82> Kevc978, allways
[09:32] <unfg> fyrestrtr: this computer is using dchp right now
[09:32] <miranda82> sivik,  when i login, it says: all updates finished, and then: I can't load your session, bla bla, and it loads an xterm, if i run then gnome-session it works, also loading a failsafe gnome session works, apt is stuck while trying to update gnome-session... any ideas?
[09:32] <hondje> SeanTater: I was about to quip no, but now that I think about it ...
[09:32] <Kevc978> mirak -  stuck in what way?
[09:32] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  *
[09:32] <SeanTater> hondje: qqip?
[09:32] <XiXaQ> how can I make ddclient use my external ip instead of my local ip?
[09:32] <sivik> miranda82, not sure
[09:32] <miranda82> Kevc978,  just... waiting..
[09:32] <sivik> miranda82, there seems to be a problem with you xsession
[09:33] <miranda82> after,  776Kb will be liberated after unpacking
[09:33] <hondje> It's my dictionary word of the day :)
[09:33] <miranda82> sivik, yeah i know..
[09:33] <fyrestrtr> setuid: okay, I'll tell you something. You can't "force purge" (afaik). The reason its not working, is because either the halt script for that program, or some dependency is returning something other than 1. Once it happened to me, and the only way I got around it was to edit the concerned file, and "force" the return of 1, then I was able to remove the package. However, all this is moot if your problem is because some already known bug
[09:33] <SeanTater> hondje: so I notice
[09:33] <fyrestrtr> unfg: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart -- see if that helps, if it doesn't come back.
[09:33] <miranda82> i also got this trying to apt-get remove gnome-session  Cannot get ENOENT value from /usr/lib/dpkg/enoent
[09:33] <SeanTater> hondje: I imagine the phrase you gave in it's place was also a quip
[09:33] <stiz> fyrestrtr: I looked in /usr/share/pixmaps its not storing them there
[09:33] <unfg> fyrestrtr: should i set the static IP or try for dchp?
[09:34] <fyrestrtr> unfg: depends on how you want to setup that system.
[09:34] <cpk2> sykes^: do you know the horiz sync and vert refresh of your monitor?
[09:34] <hondje> SeanTater: I kinda think it would be possible, but it seems like an awful lot of work. Perhaps a better solution would be to make it stop doing whatever it is that irks you
[09:34] <sykes^> cpk2: No idea, but I've allways used 1280x1024 in windows
[09:34] <sykes^> cpk2: And it's a 19"
[09:34] <fyrestrtr> stiz: /usr/share/wallpapers
[09:34] <hondje> Lot of things use it
[09:35] <sykes^> cpk2: Under 75 hz
[09:35] <SeanTater> hondje: right now, I have it SIGSTOP-ed so, I know I can live without whatever it's doing
[09:35] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  does your system complain about not being able to load the Xserver?
[09:35] <cpk2> sykes^: horiz sync and vert refresh would be in the manual
[09:35] <unfg> fyrestrtr: static ip is fine.. but it cant reach the internet.. it wont resolve hostnames behind the router.. it can only ping other pcs IPs behind the router
[09:35] <SeanTater> hondje: how do I change it?
[09:35] <miranda82> Kevc978, no
[09:35] <setuid> fyrestrtr, Where is the pkg list?
[09:35] <sykes^> cpk2: Well, I dont have any manual, but ill look it up on google, sec
[09:35] <miranda82> Kevc978, it loads... i in that pc
[09:35] <hondje> SeanTater: Well ... why do you want to drop it? What behavior?
[09:35] <Kevc978> what happens when you try sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade
[09:35] <miranda82> Kevc978, but i have to load a failsafe gnome
[09:35] <Zaggynl> Anyone knows a rhythmbox plugin for amsn? I tried googling, found nothing :>
[09:35] <Zaggynl> *:<
[09:35] <cpk2> sykes^: does it let you use any other resolution besides 1024x768?
[09:36] <SeanTater> hondje: it keeps my disk busy and slows down my computer dramatically
[09:36] <SiLOX> how do i access my linux part. in Ubuntu Live CD??
[09:36] <miranda82> Kevc978, stucks...
[09:36] <ChaosFan> SiLOX: mount it and be happy :)
[09:36] <sykes^> cpk2: 800 and 640
[09:36] <fyrestrtr> unfg: edit /etc/resolv.conf and add the ip addresses of your nameservers, something like nameserver 192.168.1.1
[09:36] <SeanTater> hondje: everything stops, waits and starts again
[09:36] <fyrestrtr> setuid: for what?
[09:36] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  like hangs? or spits out errors?
[09:36] <setuid> fyrestrtr, So I can edit out those packages, and --reinstall them
[09:36] <SiLOX> Chaos mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1?
[09:37] <miranda82> Kevc978, hangs
[09:37] <unfg> fyrestrtr: the only one in there is my routers IP already
[09:37] <KJ-ro> fyrestrtr: you need to enlighten me ... could you point me to an exemple... ?  pls.
[09:37] <fyrestrtr> setuid: oh hrmm, I don't know.
[09:37] <miranda82> Kevc978, and no hddd activity
[09:37] <fyrestrtr> unfg: what happens when you type dig google.com ?
[09:37] <sykes^> cpk2: It's a EIZO Flexscan T560i-T 19" if that helps
[09:37] <ChaosFan> SiLOX: for example
[09:37] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: are you still on the sysconfig thing? :)
[09:37] <Kevc978> try sudo apt-get update
[09:37] <hondje> SeanTater: That's probably a bug :-( Isn't gamin a gnome pkg though? I just processed the whole KDE thing
[09:37] <SiLOX> ChaosFan okey thx
[09:38] <miranda82> Kevc978, no public key for... http://packages.freecontrib.org
[09:38] <fyrestrtr> KJ-ro: I'll tell you an easier way. Install syslog-ng, and edit its config file. Much easier to understand.
[09:38] <SeanTater> hondje: I looked on google, it is a bug, but it's a WONTFIX
[09:38] <setuid> I think I found it
[09:39] <hondje> Aint' that a bitch ... .well, I guess if you're feeling adventerous you can apt-get remove gamin
[09:39] <Phoul> Hey, How do i set which java i want as default?
[09:39] <SeanTater> hondje: debian installs gnome by default, debian-kde is only debian with gnome, +kde
[09:40] <fyrestrtr> Phoul: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:40] <sykes^> cpk2: Cant find anything on google 'bout it
[09:40] <SeanTater> hondje: package gamin is not installed
[09:40] <hondje> SeanTater: I missed the debian part too ... I'm pretty useless today, I was grepping the deps for kubuntu-desktop for gamin
[09:40] <SeanTater> hondje: but gam0-server is here
[09:40] <sykes^> !ntfs
[09:40] <cpk2> sykes^: google has plenty of results but they are mostly in german =)
[09:40] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[09:40] <SeanTater> hondje: hum
[09:40] <sykes^> cpk2: Yeah I noticed :P
[09:40] <SeanTater> hondje: might not be gam-server
[09:40] <unfg> fyrestrtr: connection timed out.. no servers could be reached
[09:40] <SeanTater> hondje: my desktop just got stopped again
[09:41] <stiz> fyrestrtr: there is no /usr/share/wallpapers directory on my system , /usr/share/backgrounds is where ubuntu default wallpapers are, for the life of me i cannot find where gnome-art program stores its wallpapers, ive tried searching whole filesystem for *.png and *.jpg and im not finding them, i have over 300 wallpapers think they would show up unless they have some custom file extension, i have no idea
[09:41] <aimaz> trying to use certain features of open office crashes it, is there somewhere I can check to see if this is a known problem?
[09:41] <fyrestrtr> unfg: means your dns is down.
[09:41] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  try this >> sudo pico /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:41] <ChaosFan> cpk2: what's the matter? i missed it. but i'm german, maybe i can investigate and kind of translate?
[09:41] <sykes^> Anyone know the horiz sync and vert refresh on the EIZO Flexscan T560i-T?
[09:41] <bodo10> Hi
[09:41] <unfg> fyrestrtr: in ifconfig it has the static IP i set.. but it also has a Bcast ip.. it is trying to be a dchp server?
[09:41] <miranda82> Kevc978, do u want me to comment that server?
[09:41] <fyrestrtr> stiz: are you sure its not somewhere hidden in your home directory? Try asking in #gnome
[09:41] <setuid> damnit!
[09:41] <SeanTater> hondje: top says nothing is really using the cpu, (most are at 1.0% or so
[09:42] <SeanTater> !ohmy > setuid
[09:42] <fyrestrtr> unfg: no, broadcast ip is not for that.
[09:42] <setuid> Package management in Debian has gone from rock-solid, to flaky as hell over the last few years
[09:42] <hondje> SeanTater: interesting .... do you know what in KDE is calling gamserver?
[09:42] <SeanTater> setuid: are you using stable?
[09:42] <fyrestrtr> unfg: pastebin your /etc/networking/interfaces file
[09:42] <cpk2> ChaosFan: wanted to see what the horiz sync and vert refresh was on EIZO Flexscan T560i-T =)
[09:42] <unfg> fyrestrtr: k
[09:42] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: is it a CRT or a LCD?
[09:42] <SeanTater> hondje: no clue, it's just a daemon who's parent process is init
[09:42] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  if you delete all the lines you have there
[09:43] <Kevc978> oh in fact dont
[09:43] <sykes^> fyrestrtr: CRT
[09:43] <Sp4rKy> please, i've a firewire external harddrive and gnome seems to detect it on /dev/sdX , so it is mounted on many place, what can be the problem?
[09:43] <SeanTater> hondje: ah-ha!
[09:43] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  if i stick a pasted file onto a website, could you paste it back into your sources.list?
[09:43] <SeanTater> hondje: I figured out what was doing it
[09:43] <SeanTater> hondje: not gam-server
[09:43] <setuid> grrrrr!
[09:43] <miranda82> Kevc978, of course
[09:43] <stiz> im on gnome-art irc room, I finally just got an answer  .gnome2/gnome-art, i dont know why they werent showing up when i searched, but thanks for the help fyrestrtr
[09:44] <hondje> SeanTater: whew, I was growing increasingly clueless ;-) So what's the verdict?
[09:44] <miranda82> Kevc978, by the way, commenting that line out, solves the problem of update
[09:44] <SeanTater> hondje: it's my own deaktop, changing backgrounds minutely
[09:44] <sykes^> Yay! I fixed so I can read NTFS _all_ by myself (lol) :P
[09:44] <hondje> hehe
[09:44] <SeanTater> hondje: I had it on slide-show
[09:44] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  ah thats fine
[09:44] <hondje> KDE does that?
[09:44] <miranda82> but it's still stucked if i try to install gnome-session
[09:44] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:44] <miranda82> or dist-upgrade
[09:44] <SeanTater> hondje: yes
[09:44] <Kevc978> oh
[09:44] <SeanTater> hondje: built in to kdesktop
[09:44] <sykes^> Thought I cant play MP3-files :/
[09:45] <sykes^> Though*
[09:45] <SeanTater> hondje: actually, that one of the only reasons I don;t use gnome
[09:45] <hondje> Nice, I should really visit KDE someday
[09:45] <jmitchj> Hey guys, any idea why i get this message? fireglcontrolpanel: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[09:45] <chungaroo> where is the default dapper wallpaper stored in the filesystem? i just switched to icewm and i want to keep that wallpaper
[09:45] <SeanTater> sykes^: you can
[09:45] <jmitchj> the file is clearly in the directory that i'm running from
[09:45] <SeanTater> sykes^: say !mp3
[09:45] <miranda82> Kevc978, may it be,. cuz i'm running gnome-session right now?
[09:45] <sykes^> Oh
[09:45] <sykes^> Thanks
[09:46] <hondje> SeanTater: Good stuff though, I was kinda wondering when apt-cache rdepends couldn't find anything that seemed KDE ish
[09:46] <graft> jmitchj: it's probably looking in um, /usr/lib?
[09:46] <graft> jimwhere's the file?
[09:46] <graft> err, jmitchj where's the file?
[09:46] <SeanTater> hondje: it is
[09:46] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  no it should not make a difference
[09:46] <sykes^> Ahh, XMMS was able to play the MP3's, thanks anyways :)
[09:46] <SeanTater> hondje: but I really should install the nvidia drivers
[09:47] <miranda82> Kevc978, i mean, i had the same problems, a day or two before, but with xserver-xorg
[09:47] <SeanTater> hondje: I have a good video card I;m not using
[09:47] <jmitchj> graft: Actually i'm trying to run from terminal and i've gone to the directory where the file is
[09:47] <cpk2> hmm does it matter the order the resolutions are on the "mode" line?
[09:47] <miranda82> and loading failsafe terminal, worked
[09:47] <hondje> SeanTater: Yeah ... glad their drivers aren't too much of a hastle
[09:47] <hondje> and fairly feature rich :)
[09:47] <SeanTater> hondje: thay are
[09:47] <unfg> fyrestrtr: tryin to send to pastebin but it looks like they are having problems
[09:47] <jmitchj> graft: when i ls, the file s there
[09:47] <SeanTater> hondje: on debian-etch
[09:47] <graft> jmitchj: err what? you'retrying to run what from terminal?
[09:47] <miranda82> Kevc978, have you got any ideas?
[09:47] <hondje> etch is testing now, right?
[09:47] <graft> jmitchj: that doesn't matter, what matters is whether the file is where the program -expects to find it-
[09:47] <SeanTater> hondje: etch has no nvidia-glx package and therefore no nvidia drivers
[09:47] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  can you try sudo apt-get install xorg
[09:47] <jmitchj> graft: fireglcontrolpanel
[09:47] <unfg> fyrestrtr: http://pastebin.com/804189  lol went right as i said that
[09:48] <SeanTater> hondje: yes, testing
[09:48] <miranda82> Kevc978, i can install anything
[09:48] <graft> jmitchj: um, yeah, run that from X, na?
[09:48] <miranda82> Kevc978, i already got xorg working
[09:48] <sykes^> cpk2: I typed the resolutions from high to the lowest (left to right)
[09:48] <jmitchj> graft: it's in /usr/X11R6/bin
[09:48] <hondje> SeanTater: yeah, but last I installed the nvidia drivers by hand, just needed to install some kernel headers I think, and run it manually
[09:48] <SeanTater> hondje: the nvidia-glx package was removed because it caused other packages to break
[09:48] <fyrestrtr> unfg: use the ubuntu pastebin please. Its in the topic
[09:48] <graft> jmitchj: what, libGL.so.1?
[09:48] <unfg> oh sorry..
[09:48] <Kevc978> not all of it though if gnome-panel refused to load :-P
[09:48] <cpk2> sykes^: just because I am stumped try putting the "1280x1024" at the very end =P
[09:48] <miranda82> gonna try rebooting in failsafe
[09:48] <SeanTater> hondje: exactly
[09:48] <ChaosFan> cpk2: vertical refresh rate of 60 Hz, horiz sync to be found...
[09:48] <miranda82> brb
[09:48] <jmitchj> graft: no fireglcontrolpanel
[09:49] <Kevc978> k
[09:49] <jmitchj> graft: what do you mean run from X?
[09:49] <graft> jmitchj: ah.. and where is libGL.so.1?
[09:49] <cpk2> ChaosFan: thanks =D
[09:49] <hondje> though I still run stable on a couple of servers
[09:49] <graft> jmitchj: um, nm, i thought you were trying to run it from the console, rather than from within X-windows
[09:49] <sykes^> ChaosFan: Thanks for the helping dude :)
[09:49] <SeanTater> hondje: and that broke my system last time, and seeing that this is my only currently working OS on this system, I plan to be careful with it
[09:50] <jmitchj> graft: I was trying to run from a terminal window...
[09:50] <hondje> hehe, this is exactly why I use ubuntu for desktop :)
[09:50] <Jaak_> XSane doesn't find my scanner, he finds my tvtuner card... now what?
[09:50] <ChaosFan> cpk2: maximum horizontal frequency 95 Hz, maximum vertical 160 Hz
[09:50] <SeanTater> hondje: I use debian for a similar reason
[09:50] <hondje> not as perfect as we pretend, but it sure takes the configuration time and cuts it in half
[09:50] <sykes^> ChaosFan: Thanks
[09:50] <jmitchj> graft: the launcher is on the Applicatios list...but the link must be messed up
[09:50] <cpk2> ChaosFan: is there a range for those 2?
[09:50] <unfg> fyrestrtr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26192/
[09:51] <SeanTater> hondje: arts in dapper has a mamory leak, so I switched to debian
[09:51] <SeanTater> hondje: memory
[09:51] <ikonia> is anyone running on a centrino cpu here ?
[09:51] <graft> jmitchj: where is libGL.so.1?!
[09:51] <hondje> Really? I haven't seen that
[09:51] <SeanTater> hondje: crashed my system several times
[09:51] <fyrestrtr> unfg: okay just a minute
[09:51] <ChaosFan> cpk2: only page i found is a kind of ebay-spinoff in switzerland, giving only maximum rates :-(
[09:51] <jmitchj> graft: I don;t know....how can i search for it?
[09:51] <graft> jmitchj: locate libGL.so.1
[09:51] <fyrestrtr> who was the guy looking for the specs on the Eizo monitor?
[09:51] <hondje> SeanTater: Nice :-( I've had a few problems, but no show stoppers
[09:51] <cpk2> ChaosFan: alright hehe thanks
[09:52] <hondje> mostly, ironically, with commercial software
[09:52] <SeanTater> hondje: as soon as you turned on a sound application, it only took 15 minutes
[09:52] <hondje> ubuntu hates matlab, I swear it :)
[09:52] <KJ-ro> fck-ing gourgeus.. it works.... :))
[09:52] <graft> SeanTater: why would you be using arts anyway? weird..
[09:52] <SeanTater> graft: KDE
[09:52] <KJ-ro> now to test my iptables... :p
[09:52] <graft> SeanTater: yeah, and?
[09:52] <fyrestrtr> unfg: what is in your /etc/resolv.conf ?
[09:52] <SeanTater> graft: I can't wait until KDE4 when they drop it
[09:52] <graft> SeanTater: arts is total crap... junk it, never use it. stick with ALSA
[09:52] <jmitchj> graft: /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1
[09:53] <ragnar_123> is it possible to get itunes running via wine?
[09:53] <graft> jmitchj: err wtf.? did you install xorg-driver-fglrx?
[09:53] <SeanTater> graft: how?
[09:53] <unfg> fyrestrtr: just nameserver 192.168.2.1
[09:53] <Newbi8> How the HELL do I get Ubuntu to play dvd's?
[09:53] <graft> SeanTater: um, just disable the soundsystem via kcontrol
[09:53] <fyrestrtr> !dvd
[09:53] <ubotu> See http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html  Libdvdcss can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[09:53] <Dr_Sato> Hi..
[09:53] <kmaynard> ragnar_123, i hear it can be run in crossover, but dont count on ipod support
[09:53] <jmitchj> graft: i installed a driver i downloaded from the ati.com site
[09:53] <fyrestrtr> unfg: is that your dns server?
[09:53] <cpk2> sykes^: so if you notice the "monitor" section doesnt quite have the rate refresh rates, so you could try to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and see if you can auto detect the rates, otherwise you might have to toy around with them a little bit which might not be good for the monitor
[09:54] <pike__> ragnar_123: worst case you could install vmware server and run xp or osx inside it
[09:54] <SeanTater> !dvd > Newbi8
[09:54] <graft> SeanTater: configure notifications to play with something else, mplayer or something
[09:54] <jmitchj> graft: fglrx64-6-8-0_8.29.6-1_amd64.deb
[09:54] <unfg> fyrestrtr: its my router.. thats what all the windows boxes use for dns
[09:54] <ragnar_123> kmaynard: what do you mean, crossover
[09:54] <Dr_Sato> Question: I'm migrating from REDHAT 2 Ubuntu. Mail server was Postfix on RH... Wat is advised to use for Ubuntu?
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: were you looking for monitor refresh rates for Eizo T560i ?
[09:54] <ikonia> postfix again ?
[09:54] <Dr_Sato> It needs 2 support imap
[09:54] <ragnar_123> pike_: so it cant be done easily
[09:54] <ragnar_123> ?
[09:54] <graft> jmitchj: nah, see, that's your probs... all this shit is in the repository, configured correctly... just install from there
[09:54] <sykes^> cpk2: How do I run that command?
[09:54] <SeanTater> graft: I'll stick to debian and wait until kde4
[09:54] <ikonia> why change products just because your changing distro's
[09:54] <fyrestrtr> unfg: well the dns on it is not working. try this dig @192.168.2.1 google.com
[09:54] <hondje> sykes^: cpk2: You can usually just sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange to get them and set them manually.
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> unfg: your windows boxes probably are using cached dns.
[09:55] <sykes^> fyrestrtr: t560i-T
[09:55] <Dr_Sato> ikonia: Postfix okay.. I agree but do I need to install imap sepaeratly?
[09:55] <graft> SeanTater: suit yourself, buit you're getting inferior quality sound, unnecessary memory overhead, etc.
[09:55] <cpk2> fyrestrtr: horiz sync and vert refresh
[09:55] <ikonia> did you for redhat ?
[09:55] <ikonia> or did you use imap from within postfix
[09:55] <Dr_Sato> Not that I know of (was in 1998)
[09:55] <cpk2> sykes^: alright do what hondje said =)
[09:55] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: behold, the power of Google > http://www.arcsite.de/hp/cms/mdf/eizo560
[09:55] <jmitchj> graft: how do i do that?...from Synaptic?
[09:55] <ikonia> well, check your redhat config
[09:55] <sioux> Hi who knows what's is ALL.SYSTEM.MCAST.NET? My ubuntu exchange some strange icmp packets with host?
[09:55] <ikonia> see what its running
[09:55] <sykes^> *praises Google*
[09:55] <Bathmonster> ok i have followed every all the doco for the sound card but I am not able to get it working any ideas
[09:55] <SeanTater> graft: I;d be worried if I had speakers that were any good, or oggs encoded abover quality -1
[09:55] <Dr_Sato> Yes I used imap from within postfix .... I remember
[09:55] <pike__> ragnar_123: im not too familar with wine lately.. it might be easy but its wine .. you never know
[09:55] <ikonia> then if possible try to use the same products/config
[09:56] <miranda82> Kevc978, it worked
[09:56] <cpk2> fyrestrtr: how did i miss that? =\
[09:56] <Dr_Sato> ikonia: thnx
[09:56] <sykes^> So , what should I do now?
[09:56] <Dr_Sato> I'll hop of and try now
[09:56] <graft> jmitchj: yeah, from synaptic
[09:56] <miranda82> Kevc978, but it can't load my session, gotta do in failsafe
[09:56] <sioux> Hi who knows what's is ALL.SYSTEM.MCAST.NET? My ubuntu exchange some strange icmp packets with that host?
[09:56] <unfg> fyrestrtr: it says 1 server found.. then connection timed out.. no servers could be reached
[09:56] <fyrestrtr> cpk2: you have much to learn, young padewan.
[09:56] <basfrank> hi
[09:56] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  what worked?
[09:56] <ragnar_123> pike_: i tried just installing, and it dont even start the program :O
[09:56] <miranda82> Kevc978,  i've done a dist-upgrade
[09:56] <graft> SeanTater: eh... it's def. worth it for being able to share sound between all apps
[09:57] <fyrestrtr> unfg: means your router's dns service has crashed. Either edit /etc/resolv.conf and put another known DNS server on there, or reset your router.
[09:57] <pike__> ragnar_123: thats why i just have vmware  :)
[09:57] <cpk2> so i am guessing line rate and frame rate are horiz sync and vert refresh respectively?
[09:57] <basfrank> I have a problem with alsaconf. can anyone help me please?
[09:57] <ikonia> ok - my cpu is running at %50 speed and I don't understand why
[09:57] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  brill
[09:57] <fyrestrtr> cpk2: :)
[09:57] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  now just try apt-get update
[09:57] <sykes^> hondje: What did you tell me?
[09:57] <Kevc978> and dist-upgrade again
[09:57] <unfg> fyrestrtr: heres the real wierd thing.. if i try to ping 192.168.2.1 it gets host unreachable.. but if i try to ping 192.168.2.37 (this pc) it finds it ok
[09:57] <Kevc978> just to make sure you got everything
[09:57] <sioux> what's is ALL.SYSTEM.MCAST.NET? My ubuntu exchange some strange icmp packets with that host?
[09:57] <miranda82> Kevc978,  done
[09:57] <jmitchj> graft: fglrx64-6-8-0 shows already installed
[09:57] <Kevc978> you know how to change from failsafe to the gnome shell?
[09:58] <fyrestrtr> unfg: pastebin the output of 'route'
[09:58] <miranda82> Kevc978, what do u mean?
[09:58] <hondje> sykes^: sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange will usually give you the horiz and vert settings for your monitor
[09:58] <unfg> fyrestrtr: just type route?
[09:58] <fyrestrtr> unfg: yes
[09:58] <ruda> hey n00bs!
[09:58] <hondje> instead of googling or hoping dpkg guesses right
[09:58] <cpk2> hondje: ddcprobe doesnt tell me horiz sync and vert refresh =( even though my monitor supports both ddc standards
[09:58] <Kevc978> mirak -  are you in under gnome-failsafe?
[09:58] <ragnar_123> pike_: how do you get internet and all that working in vmware?
[09:58] <miranda82> Kevc978, i'm not english so maybe i don't understant everything...
[09:58] <sykes^> hondje: Okaj
[09:58] <Kevc978> miranda*
[09:58] <hondje> cpk2: 'usually' :)
[09:59] <graft> jmitchj: nah, that's the deb you installed - remove that, and install xorg-driver-fglrx
[09:59] <Milenco> hi all :)
[09:59] <hondje> only works on one of my monitors
[09:59] <sykes^> hondje: Didnt do anything, but I think fyrestrtr found it anywas
[09:59] <basfrank> hi Milenco
[09:59] <sykes^> cpk2: What should I do now when we got the ranges?
[09:59] <fyrestrtr> Kevc978: logout and choose 'Gnome Session' from the sessions menu.
[09:59] <miranda82> Kevc978, i loaded normal gnome, and it ouputed the small window, saying it could not load gnome, but instead a failsafe xterm window, through it, i launched gnome-session, that is where i am now
[09:59] <squee> I have a friend who just did an apt-get dist-upgrade, and now it wont accept his password, what can we do to fix this?
[09:59] <hondje> indeed ... just throwing random shit out there
[09:59] <hondje> :)
[09:59] <pike__> ragnar_123: it usually just works. you would either choose bridged networking or nat i normally have it setup nat
[09:59] <Jackofalltrades> Hey questions about wine.
[09:59] <ragnar_123> okay
[09:59] <Milenco> I'm having some trouble installing my Highpoint 2320 RAID controller, but it isn't quite working. :P Could someone guide me through this please? :P
[10:00] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  just a moment
[10:00] <Jaak_> How do i configure the device Xsane should use?
[10:00] <miranda82> Kevc978, k
[10:00] <ragnar_123> pike_: do you run win xp in vmware?
[10:00] <pike__> ragnar_123: xp solaris osx and a few linux distros :)
[10:00] <AvatarX> I do run XP in VMWarw
[10:00] <AvatarX> I do run XP in VMWare
[10:00] <ragnar_123> cool
[10:00] <Jackofalltrades> after Ive downloaded wine from the Synaptic package manager is it just all set to go and I can run a few windows apps?
[10:00] <Milenco> or is there a driver-specific ubuntu chanel?:P
[10:01] <ragnar_123> where do I get osx?
[10:01] <fyrestrtr> squee: easy way is to boot from the livecd and change the password.
[10:01] <mirak> Kevc978: no
[10:01] <mirak> ...
[10:01] <cpk2> sykes^: change the values you have in xorg.conf to the correct ones
[10:01] <fyrestrtr> Jackofalltrades: just double click on a windows executable.
[10:01] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[10:01] <fyrestrtr> ragnar_123: www.apple.com
[10:01] <cpk2> hopefully line rate and refresh rate is the same as horiz sync and vert refresh
[10:01] <miranda82> Kevc978, up to date
[10:01] <sykes^> cpk2: Ok, what was the command? gkedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[10:01] <fyrestrtr> ragnar_123: buy a computer from there, it comes with os x.
[10:01] <squee> fyrestrtr: that wont mess up anything?
[10:02] <fyrestrtr> squee: only your password :)
[10:02] <cpk2> err frame rate not refresh rate
[10:02] <ChaosFan> sykes^: you should [gk] sudo that one ;)
[10:02] <unfg> fyrestrtr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26194/
[10:02] <pike__> ragnar_123: probably just search for a torrent but make sure processor supports sse3 i think or it will be very slow
[10:02] <cpk2> sykes^: depends on what you like using, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf or you could use vi or something else
[10:02] <sykes^> cpk2: command not found
[10:02] <unfg> fyrestrtr: i typed it by hang so the collums dont line up quite right :-P
[10:02] <jmitchj> graft: I don;t have the ATI Control on Applications anymore
[10:02] <Milenco> I can't seem to build this driver (http://www.highpoint-tech.com/BIOS%20+%20Driver/rr2320/Linux/rr232x-linux-src-1.03-060710.tar.gz) under Ubuntu, it gives errors about not find a version.h file. :( Can anyone try to build/compile this file so I can install it on my system?
[10:03] <cpk2> vi isnt as user friendly as gedit though
[10:03] <ragnar_123> pike_: what is sse3? i got a amd 3700+ san diego 2200@2400
[10:03] <squee> fyrestrtr: actually we just tried recovery mode and it gave us root... but thanks
[10:03] <meheren> should i upgrode edgy in safe mode or while im booted up normally? my system has VERY limited recources
[10:03] <graft> jmitchj: fireglcontrolpanel is in that package
[10:03] <sykes^> cpk2: Used gedit, the others didnt work. What should I search for did you say?
[10:03] <miranda82> Kevc978, up to date
[10:03] <graft> jmitchj: you can run it from the terminal
[10:03] <fyrestrtr> meheren: you shouldn't be running edgy if your system has limited resources.
[10:03] <Jackofalltrades> fyrestrtr: thanks
[10:04] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  just a moment, i will find your solution yet
[10:04] <sykes^> cpk2: HorizSync	28-51         VertRefresh	43-60
[10:04] <sykes^> cpk2: Is what it say now
[10:04] <miranda82> Kevc978, thx :)
[10:04] <cpk2> sykes^: yes, change those to the correct value
[10:04] <fyrestrtr> Milenco: install kernel headers?
[10:04] <pike__> ragnar_123: id say youre set but im not sure how much functionality youd have with osx might just use xp
[10:04] <meheren> fyrestrtr, that's my decision.... i want to do some testing.... and artwork development
[10:04] <sykes^> cpk2: For 1280 or 1024?
[10:04] <Milenco> Hmm..i have no idea what you just said fyrestrtr :S. How do I do that? :P
[10:05] <meheren> and i want to make sure it all works rather than just blindly doing things
[10:05] <cpk2> sykes^: the horix sync and vert refresh is the same no matter what
[10:05] <ragnar_123> pike_: after some googleing "SSE3, also known by its Intel code name Prescott New Instructions or PNI, is the third iteration of the SSE instruction set for the IA-32 architecture. It is a SIMD instruction set. " o.O
[10:05] <fyrestrtr> meheren: the answer to your question is, no -- you should not upgrade to edgy in safe mode.
[10:05] <johnficca> hi just a question? I have a ibm t40 running ubuntu 6.06 and sometimes when I startup the wireless does not work
[10:05] <pike__> ragnar_123: i basically booted it up clicked around "meh" and havent fooled with it since
[10:05] <meheren> ok thx
[10:05] <jmitchj> graft: Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed
[10:05] <johnficca> is there a way to fix it
[10:05] <handgranat> can you install the server "edition" of ubuntu with the desktop cd?
[10:05] <unfg> fyrestrtr: ya get ny pastebin?
[10:05] <fyrestrtr> Milenco: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[10:05] <Milenco> thanks! :)
[10:05] <ragnar_123> pike_: which processor do you have?
[10:05] <fyrestrtr> unfg: yeah, try this. tracepath 195.226.224.72
[10:05] <sykes^> cpk2: What sync is it? Cant find it in the file fyrestrtr found
[10:06] <miranda82> johnficca, what cpu does t40 have?
[10:06] <johnficca> let me see
[10:06] <miranda82> i love thinkpads...
[10:06] <johnficca> pentium m 1.5 ghzs
[10:07] <miranda82> johnficca, how much did u paid for it?
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> johnficca: do you have the intel or the cisco wifi on your laptop? My T43 has the intel wifi, works -- but there are some bugs in the drivers.
[10:07] <Newbi8> Noen som snakker norsk her som kan hjelpe meg litt?
[10:07] <Gommie> How do i remove a package ie gedit , without removing other packages that were installed with it?
[10:07] <johnficca> like 500
[10:07] <handgranat> does anyone know? I'm in kind of a hurry.. can you install the server "edition" of ubuntu with the desktop cd?
[10:07] <ragnar_123> ja
[10:07] <johnficca> it the cisco
[10:07] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  the last thing i suggest, its not usually the best idea but dpkg -P --force-depends
[10:07] <sykes^> fyrestrtr: What was the rates for the EIZO I should type in the conf? Forgot
[10:07] <miranda82> Kevc978, what is it for?
[10:07] <cpk2> sykes^: I am *guessing* and *hoping* that line rate and frame rate are horiz sync and vert refresh, but I am not sure
[10:07] <fyrestrtr> sykes^: its there in that file, at the very top it gives you.
[10:07] <pike__> ragnar_123: 2600+ sempron it ran ok
[10:07] <ragnar_123> good
[10:07] <sykes^> Oh ok
[10:07] <ragnar_123> will try
[10:07] <johnficca> its a cisco 350 aironet
[10:08] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  it forces software without depends to install anyway
[10:08] <Newbi8> Ragnar_123: Har du peil p Ubuntu?Sliter med en en del ting og er i ferd med  sende hele greia i dass......
[10:08] <miranda82> johnficca, euros? dollars?

[10:08] <johnficca> dollars
[10:08] <johnficca> soory
[10:08] <johnficca> sorry
[10:08] <cpk2> fyrestrtr: am I making the correct assumption about line rate and frame rate?
[10:08] <miranda82> Kevc978, but i don't need any software to installl...
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> johnficca: it should work, try turning it off and on with the softkey (fn+f5 on mine, should be the same on yours)
[10:08] <sykes^> So Line rate is Horizsync and Frame rate is the refresh rate?
[10:08] <Gommie> handgranat: i dont think you can do that, i believe all the server install is that it lacks a gui and installs LAMP
[10:08] <gilianima> how to backup windows on dvd before installing ubuntu on a Sony VGN-TX3XP ?
[10:08] <cpk2> sykes^: I am pretty sure
[10:08] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  your gnome would work if it didnt :-P
[10:08] <fyrestrtr> cpk2: line = horizontal, frame = vertical.
[10:08] <basfrank> I need some help with alsaconf please
[10:08] <sykes^> cpk2: Aight
[10:08] <unfg> fyrestrtr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26198/
[10:09] <Milenco> its working some more now fyrestrtr. Just got some new errors :'). When I do 'make install' I get the error that "This driver is build for kernel 2.6.5.7.244-smp and cannot be installed to current system"
[10:09] <Milenco> But I do have a 2.6 kernel
[10:09] <Gommie> handgranat: so you can install off the ubuntu-desktop you just get a little bigger install
[10:09] <johnficca> yeah I tried then but when its not working it dosen't do anything
[10:09] <miranda82> Kevc978, i mena, my problem seems to be something of the session...is not a way to see what fails while loading?
[10:09] <sykes^> cpk2: Ok, so save the file and reboot?
[10:09] <cpk2> sykes^: save it, log out, restart x
[10:09] <cpk2> sykes^: you dont need to reboot
[10:10] <fyrestrtr> unfg: something physical is wrong with your setup. Cable, etc. Something like that. Type tracert 195.226.224.72 on any Windows machine that is on the same net connected to the same router. If you get a full trace, then you know its your cabling.
[10:10] <sykes^> cpk2: But when I restart X it tells me to insert my user/pwd, and after that nothing happens
[10:10] <KJ-r1> lol i gess its kinda working ... NOW...
[10:10] <johnficca> sometimes when I hit fn+f5 a lot at boot up it works
[10:10] <handgranat> Gommie: but then they must have removed that function.. i am sure you could do that in breezy..
[10:10] <cpk2> sykes^: dont worry, all you need to do is restart x =)
[10:10] <cpk2> then log in and see if you can change the res
[10:10] <fyrestrtr> johnficca: how much ram is on your laptop? It could be that loading the firmware, etc. takes some time.
[10:11] <johnficca> I have 512
[10:11] <handgranat> Gommie: is it that easy? is ubuntu-desktop the biggest difference?
[10:11] <sykes^> cpk2: Ok, but there's a problem. I can save the xorg.conf
[10:11] <miranda82> Kevc978, loading gnome-session through that xterm failsafe window works.. so i asume is not a program missing error
[10:11] <physicsnick> quick question, how do i kill x, and how do i start it up again from tty1?
[10:11] <cpk2> sykes^: eh?
[10:11] <fyrestrtr> johnficca: see the output of /var/log/messages for any clues.
[10:11] <johnficca> ok 1 sec
[10:11] <sykes^> cpk2: Tells me I dont have enough rights to save it
[10:11] <fyrestrtr> physicsnick: kill X = sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop, start X = sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[10:11] <Gommie> handgranat: its just the packages that come on the cd and what it configures
[10:11] <physicsnick> fyrestrtr, i use kde, is it the same command?
[10:11] <cpk2> sykes^: you did gksudo gedit?
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> physicsnick: replace gdm with kdm
[10:12] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  im stumped sorry
[10:12] <sykes^> Doh, hang on :P
[10:12] <Gommie> handgranat: im no expert ill admit, but you can get away with install the ubuntu-desktop and using it as a server
[10:12] <unfg> fyrestrtr: this machine gives me a full trace.. lemme switch the cables from this machine and the other ok?
[10:12] <physicsnick> fyrestrtr, awesome. thanks!
[10:12] <sykes^> cpk2: Doh, wait
[10:12] <fyrestrtr> unfg: yeah try it.
[10:12] <Gommie> handgranat: you just have to dl apache mysql and php and what not
[10:12] <unfg> fyrestrtr: brb
[10:12] <miranda82> Kevc978, no prob... no one is able to find a solution for me.... i've been like this for one week now... :(
[10:12] <johnficca> ok there is a lot of stuff in there, what should I look at
[10:12] <johnficca> I new to linux
[10:13] <handgranat> Gommie: so i just do the installation as normal (double-click the install icon), and when its done i uninstall ubuntu-desktop?
[10:13] <winga> is there a reason why libqt4-dev won't install
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> johnficca: close that window, and open up a terminal (hit alt+f2 type gnome-terminal and hit enter). Then, type this tail -f /var/log/messages
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> johnficca: then, hit fn+f5 a couple of times.
[10:13] <sykes^> cpk2: Nothing happens when I type: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:13] <fyrestrtr> johnficca: and see what it shows on the screen.
[10:13] <Gommie> handgranat: yeah that sounds like a CLI server that your looking for
[10:13] <johnficca> ok
[10:14] <cpk2> sykes^: it doesnt ask for a password?
[10:14] <sykes^> cpk2: Nvm worked now
[10:14] <handgranat> Gommie: great, thanks for the help
[10:14] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: what's the problem?
[10:14] <cpk2> sykes^: too bad, you almost got a crash course in vi =)
[10:14] <winga> how can i fix unresolved dependencies?
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> winga: what are you trying to install?
[10:15] <fyrestrtr> winga: you should not be getting any.
[10:15] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, when i pass throught gdm, it says: i wasn't able to load gnome, bla bla, and it loads grey background with a xterm window on it
[10:15] <johnficca> right now my wireless is working, should I wait till it not to do this
[10:15] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, so i run gnome-session from that xterm, and it loads normally
[10:15] <buu> So, anyone know where I could find aterm?
[10:15] <winga> fyrestrtr, libqt4-dev
[10:16] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: what is this 'blah blah'?
[10:16] <CrapImAGhost> fyrestrtr: i just switched the cables.. im using the one the linux pc was using now.. and it works
[10:16] <johnficca> ok It shows a lot of stuff on the screen
[10:16] <CrapImAGhost> fyrestrtr: but the linux px still isnt online
[10:17] <Milenco> No way I'm able to install this raid driver onto my system. :/ Could anyone compile a Debian package for me to install? :o
[10:17] <miranda82> it's something long i can't remember, but it does not says the error, or anything, just explaining me that instead of gnome it will load a xterm failsafe window
[10:17] <fyrestrtr> CrapImAGhost: don't know, its not your configuration. Does your router have any mac filtering?
[10:17] <DJ_Danni> Hello
[10:17] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, it's something long i can't remember, but it does not says the error, or anything, just explaining me that instead of gnome it will load a xterm failsafe window
[10:17] <unfg> fyrestrtr: nope
[10:17] <fyrestrtr> unfg: eh, I don't know then.
[10:17] <unfg> fyrestrtr: i was thinking it was trying to act as a dchp server instead of a client.. is that possible?
[10:17] <fyrestrtr> almost midnight here, so brain is shutting down.

[10:18] <DJ_Danni> What do you mean?
[10:18] <winga> fyrestrtr, it shows 2 packages that it says "won't be installed" but they are available, but when i try to go look at those they have unresolved dependencies
[10:19] <fyrestrtr> unfg: I don't know about that. My server does, but that's because I specifically installed it.
[10:19] <johnficca> right now hitting fn+f5 turns my wireless off and on
[10:19] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, if i choose failsafe gnome in gdm window, it works perfectly

[10:32] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  sorry?
[10:32] <xnt> loxs: are you sure that's where your win partition is (/server/share)
[10:32] <loxs> its on a remote windows box
[10:32] <sykes^> cpk2: I got 64 bit amd
[10:32] <treedreamer> hi all , I have just upgraded to 6.10 beta :)
[10:33] <loxs> so //server/share
[10:33] <miranda82> Kevc978, i deleted the script from startup, but it still does not work
[10:33] <johnficca> Tupac^, have you tried Automatix for the w32codecs
[10:33] <normand> !alsaconf
[10:33] <kmaynard> treedreamer, i did that this weekend :)
[10:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alsaconf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:33] <kmaynard> TmWrk_Quil, how goes it?
[10:33] <normand> !alsa
[10:33] <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
[10:33] <xnt> loxs: i see... haven't done it anytime at all so can't help you, so sorry...
[10:33] <blesss> its sure update breezy to dapper?
[10:33] <blesss> safe*
[10:33] <loxs> no problem thanks for your time
[10:33] <crippy> Using automatix isnt really a good idea.
[10:33] <Tupac^> no its my first time to ask help her and i like ubuntu so much
[10:33] <Tupac^> thts y i need help
[10:33] <meheren>  i locked flash awhile ago... now i want to see if edgy will let it play the newer version didn't work in dapper
[10:33] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  i think you have me mixed with someone else, i never told you to delete any script
[10:34] <cpk2> sykes^: are you sure that is an actual repo? I cant find it on winehq
[10:34] <Tupac^> no its my first time to ask help her and i like ubuntu so much
[10:34] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  unless you mean sources.list?
[10:34] <Tupac^> thts y i need help
[10:34] <johnficca> I've done it no like 50 computers so far and it works good
[10:34] <sykes^> cpk2: http://www.winehq.com/site/download-deb              found it there
[10:34] <root___> i have a problem with samba... my wifes mac keeps thinking its in the workgroup "workgroup", but i could swear it was in mshome....
[10:34] <miranda82> Kevc978, noonoonon, we just checked my xsesssionerrors file
[10:34] <Tupac^> mu ubuntu play just WAV format thats all
[10:34] <root___> i have it sharing out a backup drive but only windows boxes seem to be able to connect to it
[10:34] <sykes^> cpk2: Doh wait, its for debian :D
[10:34] <crippy> johnficca, Just because it works for you doesnt mean its a good idea
[10:34] <xnt> tupac: just download bumps...
[10:34] <root___> anyone have any ideas on what i can do to get it working?
[10:34] <cpk2> sykes^: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main is the only repo i see and thats for 386
[10:34] <sykes^> cpk2: Hmm, the Ubuntu like goes to http://www.winehq.com/site/download-deb
[10:35] <johnficca> No I mean on a lot of other computers
[10:35] <Tupac^>  xnt  tupac: just download bumps... // ok give me the link
[10:35] <sykes^> cpk2: Ok
[10:35] <miranda82> Kevc978, and u asked me about something i have in my startup session , and i thought maybe that was the reason because i get that xterm instead of gnome... and i logged out to check
[10:35] <kmaynard> root___, try #samba
[10:35] <crippy> johnficca, Still.
[10:35] <root___> yeah they dont talk

[10:35] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: that was me.
[10:35] <cpk2> sykes^: I am pretty sure you need to compile from source for 64bit wine
[10:35] <crippy> johnficca, Plus what's he going to learn by using a script?
[10:35] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, Kevc978 sorry...
[10:35] <cpk2> and i am not sure if the windows apps will like that either
[10:35] <winga> how do i fixed package dependency problems?
[10:35] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: have you changed any network settings?
[10:35] <johnficca> crippy so it don't work for you
[10:35] <meheren>  i locked flash awhile ago... now i want to see if edgy will let it play the newer version didn't work in dapper
[10:35] <Kevc978> miranda82 -  hehe no prob
[10:35] <miranda82> i've been like hours and hours trying to find out the error...
[10:36] <miranda82> Kevc978, really sorry...
[10:36] <Ramunas> night everybody
[10:36] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, nope....
[10:36] <crippy> johnficca, I never said it wont work for me, im just saying its not always a good idea
[10:36] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: I have a solution, but its kind of a blunt force :)
[10:36] <johnficca> true
[10:36] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, tell me...
[10:36] <loxs> wow linux community is much friendlier than windows community
[10:36] <sykes^> cpk2: I need to what?
[10:36] <graft> we're smarter, too, loxs!
[10:36] <loxs> heh
[10:36] <xnt> tupac: download bumps from: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=181251
[10:36] <graft> and better-looking
[10:37] <loxs> maybe! lol but i still have my problem
[10:37] <cpk2> sykes^: build from source
[10:37] <johnficca> but some of us just don't have the time
[10:37] <graft> what's your probs?
[10:37] <cpk2> compile
[10:37] <loxs> which i qguess is 50% windows
[10:37] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: first, answer a few questions. Did you change your default shell?
[10:37] <miranda82> nope
[10:37] <cpk2> you know what having packages avoids
[10:37] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, nope
[10:37] <loxs> trying to mount using samba to a windows share but its saying the windows share isnt there when it is
[10:37] <sykes^> cpk2: Wow, ok, doubt I can do that :P
[10:37] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: okay, your localhost is up and running?
[10:37] <cpk2> apparently though its incredibly simple to build from source
[10:37] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, i got some king of hdd failure, i solved tih fsck, that's all
[10:37] <cpk2> in the case of wine
[10:38] <graft> loxs: ah, um, on the same subnet and such?
[10:38] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: you know how to backup your gnome settings?
[10:38] <loxs> oh yeh same network and all that
[10:38] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: because I think that will solve the problem.
[10:38] <linuxcrazy> anybody know of a good ubuntu guide to set up an ftp server?
[10:38] <crippy> johnficca, I just dont think using a script for such a trivial things as installing is a good idea you learn nothing from it, if you havent got the time and need multiple packages on diff boxes then use dpkg selections, And it doesnt use ubuntu repo's and it doesnt fail gracefully (last time i looked anyways)
[10:38] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, and reinstalling everything will also do the trick..
[10:38] <graft> loxs: um, mount command you're using?
[10:38] <miranda82> :S
[10:38] <loxs> they can seee each other i added the ip and everything to hosts file
[10:38] <loxs> /server/share /mnt/share cifs exec, credentials=/etc/cifspw
[10:38] <loxs> //server/share /mnt/share cifs exec, credentials=/etc/cifspw
[10:38] <cpk2> sykes^: remove the wine repo you put in and add the source wine repo
[10:38] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: no, that's not what I am after.
[10:39] <SkyMountaineer> !sound
[10:39] <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
[10:39] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, what do u suggest then?
[10:39] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, cuz i can load gnome-session from that xterm window....
[10:39] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: what do you get with ls -l ~/.Xauthority
[10:39] <sykes^> cpk2: Which is?
[10:40] <graft> loxs erm... can you see it with smbclient? smbclient -L server?
[10:40] <tanja_> hello. there is no existing driver for my webcam. is there an program available to use windows driver to make devices work... something linke ndiswrapper for wlan cards??
[10:40] <cpk2> sykes^: then follow "building the wine package from source using apt" section
[10:40] <johnficca> crippy I think your right its better to teach people the hard way first
[10:40] <loxs> not tried
[10:40] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, -rw------- 1 miranda miranda 213 2006-10-10 22:30 .Xauthority
[10:40] <cpk2> sykes^: the source repo deb-src http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main (if you are using dapper)
[10:40] <loxs> yep
[10:40] <loxs> :)
[10:40] <loxs> cool
[10:40] <loxs> i can see it there
[10:40] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: sudo apt-get install gnome-reset <-- this will backup and restore your gnome session, I think it will do the trick.
[10:40] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, the permissions are bad set, no?
[10:40] <graft> loxs okay neat.. and what does mount say?
[10:41] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: no, they are okay.
[10:41] <sykes^> cpk2: Now the soruces.list seem to be corrupt, he can update syna
[10:41] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, k
[10:41] <LazyAngel> how can i direct stuff to stdin when you use sudo? eg. "cat file | sudo myprog" will send file to sudo, not myprog :(
[10:41] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: and I have to get out of here.
[10:41] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, ok... here comes the error... after downloading the package..  apt gets stucked..
[10:41] <loxs> sorry graft what do you mean?
[10:41] <loxs> what does mount say?
[10:41] <graft> loxs when you do mount /mnt/share
[10:42] <fyrestrtr> LazyAngel: sudo myprog < file
[10:42] <loxs> /mnt/share is a directory
[10:42] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: what error?
[10:42] <deus__> Have there been any knowledge about error regarding usbnet for dappers?
[10:42] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, no error... just stucked..
[10:42] <deus__> im trying to connect my ipaq
[10:42] <LazyAngel> fyrestrtr: thanks
[10:42] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: .... hdd light blinking?
[10:42] <graft> loxs um you put that line in your /etc/fstab, yes?
[10:43] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, nope
[10:43] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: good god.
[10:43] <loxs> i was just trying to execute it
[10:43] <loxs> to see if it would work
[10:43] <linuxcrazy> !ftp server
[10:43] <ubotu> ftp: The FTP client. In component main, is standard. Version 0.17-16 (dapper), package size 47 kB, installed size 152 kB

[10:43] <sykes^> cpk2: Cant update the list anymore, I get a error all the time
[10:43] <graft> loxs ah... um, that's not an executable line, that's an fstab entry
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: sounds like your permissions are hosed.
[10:44] <loxs> lol
[10:44] <loxs> im a dork
[10:44] <cpk2> sykes^: do it manually, close synaptic and do gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:44] <moox111> hi all
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> miranda82: but I need more time to debug this.
[10:44] <Ronz> hey yall...i have an api mismatch with my nvidia card. anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
[10:44] <sykes^> I did, still get the error
[10:44] <Ronz> "has the version 1.0-8762 but this x module has the version
[10:44] <Ronz> 1.0-8774."
[10:44] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, bah, does not matter, go, thx for trying :)
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> and right now, I must sleep :) almost midnight here.
[10:44] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, 22:44 here
[10:44] <fyrestrtr> same, and I have a 30 minute drive home
[10:45] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, i have not eated, not had shower... nothing...
[10:45] <Ronz> and im on the verge of throwing it out my dorm window....;)
[10:45] <linuxcrazy> can someone give me a link to a guide on installing an ftp server please?
[10:45] <fyrestrtr> we can work on it tomorrow if you are online in the evening.
[10:45] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, the thing annoys me, is that if i launch gnome-session from that xterm, it works..
[10:45] <loxs> ok cool
[10:45] <loxs> added to fstab
[10:46] <Ronz> hey yall...i have an api mismatch with my nvidia card. anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
[10:46] <fyrestrtr> linuxcrazy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FtpServer
[10:46] <graft> loxs - okay, so now sudo mount /mnt/share should work, maybe
[10:46] <miranda82> fyrestrtr, uf... i dunno, got class from 19 to 21
[10:46] <linuxcrazy> ty!!
[10:46] <graft> Ronz - what are you trying to do exacky?

[10:47] <fyrestrtr> okay later everyone. Happy ubuntu-ing
[10:47] <Ronz> graft, im trying to install my nvidia card. 6800 GT, and ive been going bakd and forth for days with it
[10:47] <sykes^> gtg afk for a few
[10:47] <cpk2> sykes^: post your sources.list
[10:47] <bmk789_> wheres the edgy room?
[10:47] <graft> Ronz and sticking it in doesn't work...?
[10:47] <blesss> anyone know how much free space must i have to update to dapper
[10:47] <linuxcrazy> ubuntu+1
[10:47] <cpk2> pastebin it
[10:47] <sun_> hi anyone know how to select multiple items in a selection box using firefox?
[10:47] <sun_> hi anyone know how to select multiple items in a selection box using firefox?
[10:47] <sykes^> cpk2: Wait, need to go out for 5 min, ill post it when I get back
[10:48] <sun_> hi anyone know how to select multiple items in a selection box using firefox?
[10:48] <Ronz> graft, the card works. im trying to get 3d acceleration to work on it. heres the error it gives me. "teh nvidia kernel module has the version 1.0-8762 but this x module has the version 1.0-8774"
[10:48] <[BTF] Chm0d> anyone in here play quake2?  or have problems with the mouse going down when it should go up and vice-versa?
[10:49] <Zaggynl> anyone has a working .deb of an amsn audio plugin
[10:49] <Ronz> [BTF] Chm0d, invert the pitch
[10:49] <graft> Ronz: clarity is a virtue, here. HOW are you trying to get 3d acceleration to work?
[10:49] <[BTF] Chm0d> ive tried inverting the mouse
[10:49] <blesss> anyone know how much free space must i have to update to dapper
[10:50] <lupine_85> blesss: depends
[10:50] <Ronz> graft, sorry bout that. =P i have installed nvidia-glx, and linux-restricted-modules for my kernel. once i do that, i run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then ctrl alt backspace. it either A. hangs up or B. kicks back the api mismatch error
[10:50] <lupine_85> run apt-cache clean to get some more though
[10:50] <bmk789_> blesss: use apt-get and find out
[10:50] <johnjosephbachir> so... it seems like mysql isn't built into the php that comes with Dapper?
[10:50] <graft> Ronz ah  - um, did you try installing from nvidia.com first?
[10:50] <blesss> lupine_85,  why depends
[10:51] <blesss> if i got 800 megas can i update?
[10:51] <Ronz> graft, i dont want to have to redo the driver every time i update my kernel
[10:51] <lupine_85> it depends on what needs downloading
[10:51] <blesss> i am in breezy now
[10:51] <blesss> i want to upate to dapper
[10:51] <blesss> update*
[10:51] <lupine_85> sorry, I don't keep the entire repo in my head
[10:51] <blesss> but with 800 megas can i?
[10:51] <[BTF] Chm0d> ronz is inverting the pitch same as inverting the mouse?
[10:51] <lupine_85> run the update and it'll tell you how much it needs
[10:51] <graft> Ronz - you have to. but hopefully you'r enot updating your kernel every day, eh?
[10:52] <lupine_85> if that's more than 800MB, then no
[10:52] <blesss> ok thanks
[10:52] <Ronz> graft, aight. ill try that and see if it works
[10:52] <Ronz> *sighs to ubuntu*
[10:52] <graft> Ronz - no, don't try that
[10:52] <rem__> .
[10:52] <graft> Ronz - err, i meant, if you tried that that might explain the mismatch
[10:52] <graft> sorry
[10:52] <pike__> blesss: you can remove some things like rm -fr /usr/share/doc/* and such
[10:52] <Ronz> graft, ah, ok
[10:52] <Ronz> lol
[10:53] <graft> Err, so what're you running, Ronz, the 2.6.15 kernel?
[10:53] <Ronz> graft, yes
[10:54] <vertana> Could someone please explain what is meant when it's said "Upgrading Edgy to Edgy +1"?
[10:54] <vertana> Or is that simply the final version?
[10:54] <loxs> graft i got it sorted thanks alot for your help mate
[10:54] <loxs> much appreciated!
[10:54] <xzakox> hi
[10:54] <segfault_> vertana, edgy+1 is version to come after edgy likely 7.04
[10:55] <vertana> Ah, thank you :)
[10:55] <xzakox> anyone is suffering segfaults when running apt? (edgy)
[10:55] <Jaak_> my scanner doesnt work, although xsane recognizes it, after the scan it says it has miscommunication
[10:55] <Jaak_> now what?
[10:55] <Ronz> graft, 2.6.15-27-386
[10:55] <segfault_> xzakox, ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:55] <xzakox> tnks
[10:56] <graft> Ronz um, and you installed the appropriate restricted modules and nvidia-glx
[10:56] <graft> try 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable'
[10:56] <Kevc978> any of you guys got a fix for the (no debugging symbols found) errors yet?
[10:56] <Kevc978> dealing with loads of bug reports, seems to link to gtk tho
[10:57] <Ronz> done...time to ctrl alt backspace
[10:57] <SkyMountaineer> why do i get this error  WARNING: /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'options'
[10:59] <rob88> anyone know what type of nntp software sites like giganews/newshosting/usenetserver use?
[10:59] <freesun> anyone can help me? I am trying to get grub back after winXP reinstall
[10:59] <freesun> no idea how to boot old ubuntu session though
[11:00] <SkyMountaineer> can i get some hlp on my sounds card issue pls
[11:01] <preaction> k0rd, defrag? what's that?
[11:01] <k0rd> defragging windows
[11:01] <k0rd> so i can install ubuntu
[11:01] <preaction> you don't need to
[11:01] <ubuntu> ?
[11:01] <ubuntu> hola
[11:01] <k0rd> preaction, the partitioning will take longer
[11:01] <k0rd> :\
[11:01] <HexDump> hi all
[11:01] <preaction> k0rd, uh.. no?
[11:02] <k0rd> so you're telling me, if I dual-boot this, I don't need to defrag windows so that it won't take longer?
[11:02] <k0rd> Because I have to free up more space cause Windows spreads shit all over the harddrive
[11:02] <HexDump> can I execute a desketop app in root mode? for example Ark, that is the one Im having trouble with
[11:02] <preaction> k0rd, are the partitions already made?
[11:02] <k0rd> no
[11:02] <Vornotron> If you need to make partitions, you really should defrag first
[11:02] <Ronz> hey graft, that didin't work. i probably screwed something up somewhere...so im just gonna do a clean install and hope that works. thanks for the help though. =)
[11:03] <preaction> k0rd, good luck then, i've never had a resize work right :(
[11:03] <Vornotron> Because that way you'll have the most possible continuous space at the end of the Windows partition, so you can resize it.
[11:03] <xarq> does anyone know of a wireless nic card for a desktop which ubuntu will recognize without needing any special drivers installed?
[11:03] <k0rd> Yeah, I haven't had a resize work either
[11:03] <k0rd> :\
[11:03] <sykes^> cpk2: Back now, 1 sec
[11:03] <Vornotron> If you don't defrag, you may get only a little - or none at all - space at the end of the drive for the resize.
[11:03] <xarq> wireless USB would be even better
[11:03] <Vornotron> Resize has never failed for me
[11:03] <preaction> that's why i just usually rebuild the whole drive
[11:04] <k0rd> im n00b to Linux Volstrup
[11:04] <k0rd> :\
[11:04] <sykes^> cpk2: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26205/
[11:04] <Vornotron> I had to do it once on a shared partition because WIndows wouldn't recognize that the drive was larger than 128gb.
[11:04] <Vornotron> GiB, rather
[11:04] <k0rd> so I just defragged twice
[11:04] <k0rd> Vornotron, is there a tutorial you could suggest for dual-booting?
[11:05] <ikonia> has anyone seen problems with mobile cpu's running at half speed and not scaling up to full speed ?
[11:05] <cpk2> sykes^: the wine repo isnt in there
[11:05] <Vornotron> k0rd: not that I can think of - I just used the standard Ubuntu CD's installer, which did all that crap for me.
[11:05] <sykes^> cpk2: Oh? What is the ling?
[11:05] <sykes^> cpk2: line
[11:05] <k0rd> So just use the Resize SCSI and used freedspace
[11:05] <k0rd> use that option?
[11:05] <Vornotron> (but you'll want to fiddle with the grub configurator)
[11:06] <Volstrup> k0rd: why do you tell me that?
[11:06] <k0rd> tell you what?
[11:06] <cpk2> sykes^: the source repo winehq gives you
[11:06] <Vornotron> I think he was aiming at me
[11:06] <Volstrup> ahhh... I see :-)
[11:06] <k0rd> Vornotron, so just use the Resize SCSI and used freed space, and it should partition and dual-boot itself?
[11:06] <sykes^> cpk2: Oh ok
[11:07] <graveson> anyone know where i can find the devede tool packaged for debian ?
[11:07] <[BTF] Chm0d> anyone else in here play first person game ie. quake 2 and their mouse is messed up?
[11:07] <ikonia> try asking in #debian ?
[11:07] <ikonia> they may know better
[11:07] <xittum> buidl-essential
[11:07] <xittum> *build
[11:07] <Vornotron> Ubuntu will resize - but not defrag - FAT and NTFS partitions.
[11:07] <sykes^> cpk2: Added it now, still cant find anything when I search
[11:08] <whyso> does ubuntu support external hd enclusures that use esata?
[11:08] <kjempe> hi all
[11:08] <Vornotron> So just defrag, do the install saying that you want dual boot and to resize the existing partition
[11:08] <k0rd> Well I just defragged the disk twice
[11:08] <kjempe> anybody can help me w/ a question about dapper?
[11:08] <k0rd> so you think it'd be safe to go ahead and try to install?
[11:08] <Vornotron> Ought to be.
[11:08] <cpk2> sykes^: keep synaptics closed, i think apt-get will keep it more simple =)
[11:08] <lupine_85> !ask
[11:08] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:08] <sykes^> cpk2: Or wait, is it "libwine" or "libwine-dev"?
[11:08] <k0rd> alright, well i'll be back in a little bit and let you guys know how it went
[11:09] <jaye> I just tried to update my version of edgy and it fails on upgrading gdm with a permissions error on /var/lib/gdm/.cookie /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth? it won't let me remove the files as root also, anyone else had this?
[11:09] <kjempe> could you do "sudo sysv-rc-conf" and tell me what runlevel "bootclean" is on
[11:09] <kjempe> ?
[11:09] <whyso> also, from k0rd do you have to defag before you install ubuntu
[11:09] <cpk2> sykes^: after adding the source repo to sources.list do sudo apt-get update
[11:09] <lupine_85> the latter for compiling a win32 app into an ELF binary
[11:09] <whyso> does ubuntu support external hd enclusures that use esata?
[11:09] <HexDump> is there anyway to be root in kde?
[11:10] <HexDump> with ubuntu?
[11:10] <lupine_85> HexDump: you probably don't want to run KDE as root
[11:10] <sykes^> cpk2: Done that, I only get up something that looks like wine, called "libwine" and "libwind-dev"
[11:10] <kjempe> could anyone do "sudo sysv-rc-conf" and tell me what runlevel "bootclean" is on?
[11:10] <lupine_85> running a particular KDE app as root is as simple as kdesu <app>
[11:10] <whyso> do you have to defragment before resizing your windows partitian
[11:10] <lupine_85> whyso: yep
[11:10] <HexDump> kdesu
[11:10] <lupine_85> kdesu is your friend
[11:10] <Vornotron> whyso: you do, yes.
[11:10] <whyso> thanks
[11:11] <whyso> also, does ubuntu support external hd enclusures that use esata?
[11:11] <lupine_85> run from alt+f2 if possible rather than a terminal
[11:11] <Jaak> is there anyone who can help me with my scanner problems?
[11:11] <lupine_85> whyso: probably
[11:11] <lupine_85> it supports everything else
[11:11] <Vornotron> Because if you don't you won't get any free space to resize the partition with.
[11:11] <whyso> oh ok :)
[11:11] <kjempe> Could anyone please do "sudo sysv-rc-conf" and tell me what runlevel "bootclean" is on?
[11:11] <Alberto> hi
[11:11] <cpk2> sykes^: apt-cache search wine
[11:12] <whyso> this sort of sucks since my copy of windows is busted and i cant even defrag (which is why im switching)
[11:12] <Ichigo_kun> resalut tout le monde
[11:12] <HexDump> lupine_85:  but, look, for example, I wnat to change a hard drive rights, to let my user write to it. I can do it because I? not root, and I don wnat to go to console to do this things, is this posible to do this with kde contextual menues?
[11:12] <sykes^> cpk2: in terminal?
[11:12] <whyso> anyone have an idea to help me?
[11:12] <Vornotron> whyso: ow.
[11:12] <cpk2> sykes^: yup
[11:12] <lupine_85> HexDump: yes
[11:12] <Jaak> I've installed the appropriate drivers for my scanner, when i start xsane, it recognizes my scanner, when i push the scan button my scanner starts to scan, but when it's done xsane says it had a communication error, i don't know what to do, can someone help me?
[11:12] <lupine_85> if a KDE program needs admin privs, it should prompt for them
[11:12] <lupine_85> if not, run it with kdesu and it'll have them automagically
[11:12] <whyso> hornotron: yeah i know its a shared computer and my family isnt virus aware :(
[11:13] <sykes^> cpk2: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26206/
[11:13] <Vornotron> whyso: get a second hard drive (this is one of those things that you should have floating around) and install windows or linux on /it/ and then back up your windows drive.
[11:13] <Phuzion> Hey, I've got a bit of a wierd network setup here, and I need my machine to automatically configure itself correctly to connect to the internet before it does the clock synchronization during boot time
[11:13] <lupine_85> whyso: if there's plenty of free space on the windows drive, you might be lucky and have enough spare at the end to resize it
[11:13] <man-of-christ> is there a program in linux where i can open and or extract cue/files
[11:13] <lupine_85> no guarantees though
[11:13] <Phuzion> Can someone help me out
[11:13] <kjempe> could anyone do "sudo sysv-rc-conf" and tell me what runlevel "bootclean" is on?
[11:13] <k0rd> k, im on the live cd now
[11:14] <kjempe> it's quite urgent
[11:14] <lupine_85> man-of-christ: convert to .iso using bchunj
[11:14] <graft> !ask
[11:14] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:14] <lupine_85> bchunk*
[11:14] <whyso> ty vorno
[11:14] <cpk2> sykes^: I made a mistake, add the other wine repo as well
[11:14] <lupine_85> bootclean?
[11:14] <sykes^> Ok
[11:14] <Phuzion> graft:  was that directed at me?
[11:14] <k0rd> k, partitioning
[11:14] <graft> yep
[11:14] <kjempe> right
[11:14] <sykes^> cpk2:  deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main?
[11:14] <cpk2> sure
[11:14] <Phuzion> if you had what i said earlier, you'd see that i did actually state my problem and was just asking for help
[11:14] <HexDump> lupine_85: sorry to trouble you so much but I do right click on a windows harddrive, then I change rights and it doesn prompt for anything, it only says, permision not allowed to /mnt/windows/e
[11:14] <Phuzion> Hey, I've got a bit of a wierd network setup here, and I need my machine to automatically configure itself correctly to connect to the internet before it does the clock synchronization during boot time
[11:14] <lupine_85> sorry - edgy here, doesn't seem to be here
[11:15] <graft> ah
[11:15] <kjempe> okay
[11:15] <lupine_85> HexDump: so you're wanting to give your user account write access to an NTFS or FAT32 partition?
[11:15] <Phuzion> i specifically have to run route add deafult gw 192.168.1.1 before I can connect to the internet
[11:15] <kjempe> doesn't seem to be too important then
[11:15] <graft> um, just put your clock-synch script in /etc/network/if-up.d
[11:15] <lupine_85> Phuzion: add gateway some-ip to /etc/network/interfaces
[11:16] <HexDump> lupine_85: yes, fat32 one
[11:16] <kjempe> cheers
[11:16] <sykes^> cpk2: Nope, I get the 404 error again if I add deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main
[11:16] <roy_> Hey guys, I have a question and was wondering if anyone here could maybe help me out?
[11:16] <Phuzion> lupine_85, thanks will try
[11:16] <ramvi> Ubuntu doesn't find my wireless network. It finds my wireless card. And I've got network manager, but it just ignores my wireless network. Is this a known issue?
[11:16] <lupine_85> ok, add uid=1000,gid=1000 to the appropriate line in /etc/fstab
[11:16] <whyso> is there any way to defrag ntfs from ubuntu? my windows is busted and i cant from there
[11:16] <graft> ramvi: yeah, the issue is network manager doesn't work
[11:17] <lupine_85> (or whatever your user's group and user id's are)
[11:17] <whyso> and i cant reinstall XP cause i lost my cd key
[11:17] <physicsnick> what's a good utility for mass renaming files?
[11:17] <lupine_85> mv :)
[11:17] <physicsnick> :/
[11:17] <roy_> I have a question about getting my screen to turn off when I close the lid.  I've found tons of help on getting the screen to turn back on when I open it, but mine never turns off.  I'm using an Inspiron 8200 with an NVIDIA GeForce 4 440 GO card.
[11:17] <lupine_85> mp3rename does mp3s according to ID3 tags
[11:17] <graft> physicsnick: shell scripts, using echo & sed
[11:18] <HexDump> lupine_85: aha, I have to do it by hand... then I don understand why kde shows me this options to do that :?. Gonna do it now thnx mate
[11:18] <Phuzion> lupine_85:  That's already there, yet I still have to run the command every time I boot the machine
[11:18] <ramvi> graft, I can't find it the network in the network-thing that comes with ubuntu either
[11:18] <lupine_85> peculiar
[11:18] <lupine_85> have you tried hitting it with a hammer?
[11:18] <graft> ramvi: i've never found a wireless network-management tool that i liked
[11:18] <whyso> > is there any way to defrag ntfs from ubuntu? my windows is busted and i cant from there, and i cant reinstall it cause i lost the cd :(
[11:19] <physicsnick> graft: thanks
[11:19] <sykes^> cpk2: This is impossible :/
[11:19] <graft> ramvi: but i use KDE anyway, so probably no good for you
[11:19] <sykes^> cpk2: Stupid 64 bit amd processor
[11:19] <roy_> Does anyone think they could help me with my issue?
[11:19] <graft> ramvi: you should do /sbin/iwlist <interface> scan to see if it can pick up your network at all
[11:19] <cpk2> sykes^: you should be able to hit deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main seeing as I am able to
[11:20] <knap> what is the release date for edgy?
[11:20] <graft> whyso: um, copy your important data off and cut'n'run?
[11:20] <Jaak> I've installed the appropriate drivers for my scanner, when i start xsane, it recognizes my scanner, when i push the scan button my scanner starts to scan, but when it's done xsane says it had a communication error, i don't know what to do, can someone help me?
[11:20] <graft> knap: oct. 27th
[11:20] <knewt> i'm seeing the following error message. any ideas?   "libgcc_s.so.1 must be installed for pthread_cancel to work"   - it /is/ there in /lib
[11:20] <whyso> graft: i would but i want to keep XP for gaming
[11:20] <knap> graft ok thanks
[11:20] <sykes^> cpk2: Yeah, but this is the only things I can find http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26206/
[11:21] <lampshade> Is there a safe command for apt that will tell me what packages will be removed when I go to install other packages?  Like an emerge pretend maybe?
[11:21] <HexDump> bye all!!!
[11:21] <graft> whyso: just get a console, man... all the good games are for consoles these days anyway
[11:22] <cpk2> sykes^: you said that you arent hitting deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main though right?
[11:22] <tuxub> is there a way to make evolution print images on e-mails?
[11:22] <Phuzion> Can I install WINE on Gnome?
[11:22] <sykes^> Yep
[11:22] <sykes^> cpk2: Yep
[11:22] <whyso> graft: no money for console/games at the moment :(
[11:22] <Phuzion> haha, 3 yes no questions within about 5 seconds
[11:22] <Phuzion> That makes stuff confusing
[11:23] <whyso> just using bittorrent/pc
[11:23] <gkamysz> Hello! I'm/ working on a network between XP and Ubuntu. I followed the "How to peer to peer" in the networking forum. i got to the point were I see my ubuntu dapper box on my XP box but it won't accept my password to gain access. I've checked the passwords, and I'm pretty sure than I have everything correct. I actually created a second user and password for samba and still nothing.
[11:23] <lampshade> Phuzion: yes, absolutely
[11:23] <graft> whyso: well you can get snes9x and a starfox rom for linux, and you'll be happy as a clam at high tide
[11:23] <ramvi> graft, iwlist returns that eth1 is an unknown command. And yes, that's the name of the card. iwlist returned the same on a machine that actually finds the network
[11:23] <be> hi
[11:23] <Phuzion> lampshade:  what is the package name on apt-get in console?
[11:24] <graft> ramvi: uh... say what? does your interface show up on /sbin/iwconfig?
[11:24] <lampshade> Phuzion: I believe you must add a special wine repo to your sources.list   mine is      deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main    as found in the wiki
[11:24] <whyso> graft: yeah, that sounds fun :)
[11:25] <Phuzion> lampshade:  Thanks, I guess I'll just start some research of my own
[11:25] <knewt> lampshade: -s  ?
[11:25] <ramvi> graft, yupp. As eth1
[11:25] <graft> whyso: few games are better than starfox...
[11:25] <knewt> no ideas on the libgcc error?
[11:25] <Vertana> What's better than Starfox and most games out there? Duke Nukem :D
[11:25] <graft> ramvi: sounds fuX0r3d
[11:25] <lampshade> Phuzion: if you just want to go with it, this is exactly what I do.  I mean I just pulled that address from my sources.list   I have wine installed just by doing apt-get wine or something like that after adding that repo
[11:25] <tanja_> does anybody know where I can get a driver for my webcam syntek dc1125 - stored in my asus a6t-ap005h notebook ??
[11:26] <Vertana> Lampshade:... google =p
[11:26] <Phuzion> lampshade:  I want to get a little more understanding about WINE though before I start messing too much with it
[11:27] <lampshade> Phuzion: Of course.  It is pretty nice though.  I'm amazed at what it can do.
[11:27] <cpk2> sykes^: well I dont know what to say if that wine repo wont work
[11:27] <cpk2> !easysource
[11:27] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[11:27] <lampshade> Vertana, Knewt, how did I miss that in the man haha RAH!
[11:27] <Phuzion> Awesome, I'll probably be using it primarily for Internet Explorer (joking of course)
[11:27] <lampshade> thanks
[11:27] <Max_-> some software needs libatk1.0-0 to run... I loaded libatk1.0-dev ... now it still says I need libatk1.0-1 .. so I searched.. found the deb package.. but I cant Install it, it says I already have newer version... even if I apt-get remove the 1.0-dev one!!.. how can I do???
[11:28] <Max_-> sorry.. I asked earlier but .. the buffer was too small
[11:28] <lampshade> Phuzion: I use it for Picasa and that's about all now
[11:28] <ramvi> graft, absolutely
[11:28] <tanja_> does anybody know where I can get a driver for my webcam syntek dc1125 - stored in my asus a6t-ap005h notebook ??
[11:28] <Phuzion> Holy crap, I just realized this machine is on 5.04, I'm gonna go upgrade real quick
[11:28] <graft> ramvi '/sbin/iwlist eth1 scan' doesn't work?
[11:28] <sykes^> cpk2: I'll wait for the 64 bits version, but thanks for the help :)
[11:29] <cpk2> sykes^: they might not do one
[11:29] <cpk2> sykes^: you could download the source yourself and compile yourself
[11:29] <sykes^> They are making one, search google and youll see
[11:30] <ramvi> graft, oh! It works - in a way... It can't find it...
[11:30] <ramvi> graft, no scan results..
[11:30] <optimusprime_> is it possible to transfer files between a Win XP partition to a Linux Partition?
[11:31] <graft> um... but it does try to scan at least
[11:31] <TmWrk_Quil> who do you have to kill to get sshd working on ubuntu server
[11:31] <optimusprime_> or the other way around...
[11:31] <Phuzion> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is the correct thing to use to go from a distro to the next, right?
[11:31] <tanja_> optimusprime: of course
[11:31] <Phuzion> after changing out the sources.list file of course
[11:31] <graft> optimusprime_: you can mount windows in linux, but not linux in windows (thus proving that windows is inferior)
[11:31] <rendo> What's the trash command for the terminal?
[11:32] <rendo> More importantly how cna I empty it. :P
[11:32] <whyso> how is ubuntu different from debian?
[11:32] <pike__> optimusprime_: writing directly to ntfs is not a good idea or at least im too paranoid to do it.  Most people keep a fat32 partition for media and stuff for both machines to access
[11:32] <rendo> whyso: It's cuter.
[11:32] <whyso> hehe
[11:32] <Phuzion> Personally, I think it's easier to maintain than Debian
[11:32] <Phuzion> But that's just my opinion
[11:32] <graft> yeah, packages are better maintained
[11:32] <Phuzion> Package management is a breeze
[11:32] <BHSPitLappy> pike_, optimusprime_, have you tried the new ntfs-3g driver?
[11:32] <BHSPitLappy> it's supposed to work perfectly for ntfs in linux
[11:32] <graft> and they actually have, like, release cycles
[11:33] <Madeye> QL
[11:33] <whyso> ah ok thanx
[11:33] <Phuzion> Believe it or not, I use Ubuntu in all of my servers as well as my Linux workstations
[11:33] <Max_-> some software needs libatk1.0-0 to run... I loaded libatk1.0-dev ... now it still says I need libatk1.0-1 .. so I searched.. found the deb package.. but I cant Install it, it says I already have newer version... even if I apt-get remove the 1.0-dev one!!.. how can I do???
[11:34] <pike__> BHSPitLappy: nope. i might try it but i havent had an ntfs partition in a while
[11:34] <tanja_> does anybody know where I can get a driver for my webcam syntek dc1125 - stored in my asus a6t-ap005h notebook ??
[11:34] <Phuzion> I needed to build a program the other day, but I wasn't sure what I would need in order to build, apt-get install build-essential gave me the entire freaking Home Depot
[11:34] <rendo> What's the trash command for the terminal?
[11:34] <Phuzion> !trash
[11:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about trash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:34] <j1> I had divided by hard drive to be able to use both Linux Ubuntu and Windows XP. After updating Ubuntu yesterday, Windows disappeared from the GRUB menu at start up. How do I regain access to Windows?
[11:35] <Phuzion> j1:  Modify your grub list
[11:35] <whyso> why does windows still use ntfs if there are better out there
[11:35] <pike__> rendo: you could mv file ~/.Trash  or to just delete it rm file
[11:35] <apokryphos> whyso: it's their filesystem, they can control how it works
[11:35] <Syco54645> is a network connection needed for the base ubuntu server install
[11:35] <apokryphos> Syco54645: no
[11:36] <whyso> ah ok, thats kind of assholish :( (not to provide an api for other operating systems)
[11:36] <j1> Okay, tell me what to enter on the grub list.
[11:36] <willys_fueguino> I need help: Gcc makes an infinite loop when I run the command "ake"
[11:36] <willys_fueguino> *make
[11:36] <Phuzion> j1:  You found it, correct?
[11:36] <Phuzion> it's at /boot/grub/menu.lst for reference
[11:36] <apokryphos> whyso: well, it's closed source -- that's to be expected. But it causes big problems for us, like we can't get journalling right with NTFS because of it
[11:37] <Syco54645> apokryphos: ok because i am now server admin of the compsci club server and we aparently need to register the mac to get network access.  once the server is installed i can just change the mac with ifconfig and it should work that way so that we can get the needed packages
[11:37] <willys_fueguino> I need help: Gcc makes an infinite loop when I run the command "make"
[11:37] <Phuzion> j1:  Where do you have the Windows install put at?  Don't say C:/Windows, either
[11:37] <j1> Yes, I can enter the GRUB menu, and there are instructions for adding an option. I don't know whether or not I can simply create a line and enter Window XP or not.
[11:38] <Phuzion> Yes, you can
[11:38] <totall_6_7> Why didnt someone tell me this was there?!?! UBUNTU has a GUI for pure-pfpd :D:D:D:D:D
[11:38] <jshamash66> Is there a way to browse Nautilus with access permissions? (so I don't have to type 'sudo...' in terminal every time i want to move or delete something)?
[11:38] <Phuzion> totall_6_7:  That would be so nice to use, if any of my FTP servers had GUI's
[11:38] <pike__> totall_6_7: bah to frontends :)
[11:38] <Marlun> I've created a shell script but I can't seem to run it as super user writing "sudo my_script" then I just get a message telling me there is not such command. (running just my_script works good)
[11:38] <hmrocha> hello
[11:39] <totall_6_7> pike_:  hehehehe
[11:39] <hmrocha> when will ubuntu edgy be released?
[11:39] <Phuzion> Marlun: Try sudo -s | my_script
[11:39] <Phuzion> That could work
[11:39] <apokryphos> hmrocha: please read the FAQ
[11:39] <Phuzion> But you'll be logged in as root
[11:39] <Phuzion> So, be careful with what you do there
[11:39] <JacksLivr> iptables is not installed as an init script. in fedora i would type "chkconfg --add iptables" to add it. how do i do this in ubuntu?
[11:40] <willys_fueguino> I need help: Gcc makes an infinite loop when I run the command "make"
[11:40] <j1> I don't know where my Windows install is. My son divided the memory and installed Windows so I could use both. I don't know what he did.
[11:40] <apokryphos> j1: pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l
[11:40] <Phuzion> What is Ubuntu listed as in menu.lst?
[11:40] <pike__> Marlun: you can bash scriptname or ./scriptname
[11:41] <Phuzion> j1:  What is the root value for Ubuntu in menu.lst?
[11:41] <j1> I'll have to restart to get that. See you in a bit.
[11:41] <Phuzion> Alright
[11:41] <willys_fueguino> I need help: Gcc makes an infinite loop when I run the command "make"
[11:42] <apokryphos> ubotu: tell willys_fueguino about repeat
[11:42] <jshamash66> is there a way to delete administrator files from nautilus or konqueror without typing 'sudo rm.." in terminal each time?
[11:43] <apokryphos> jshamash66: alt+f2 -> gksudo nautilus
[11:43] <Phuzion> sudo -s works to log you in as root
[11:43] <apokryphos> sudo -i is recommended
[11:43] <apokryphos> and gksudo specifically for Graphical applications
[11:43] <Phuzion> whats the difference?
[11:43] <apokryphos> though that's more important with KDE apps
[11:43] <jshamash66> thanks
[11:43] <hmrocha> apokryphos: in the faq it says that it will be released in october, but will it be in the end of october?
[11:43] <apokryphos> Phuzion: -i sets up the environment more appropriately for a root session
[11:44] <apokryphos> hmrocha: then there's probably not a date set just yet. End of October I'd imagine though, yes.
[11:44] <Phuzion> Like, the desktop manager?  Or the system itself?
[11:44] <apokryphos> the session itself
[11:44] <Phuzion> Ok
[11:44] <apokryphos> more info in the man page
[11:44] <Phuzion> alright
[11:44] <hmrocha> apokryphos: ok, thanks
[11:46] <Leo5> Hello everybody!

[11:48] <TmWrk_Quil> i'm working with a fresh install of ubuntu server (latest)
[11:48] <SkyMountaineer> asking for help with a sound card issie
[11:49] <TmWrk_Quil> anyone?
[11:49] <pike__> you guys see upstart as a positive thing?
[11:50] <sri> Has anybody had a problem in dapper where if you transfer a lot of files over samba from a windows client to your local computer it crashes nautilus?
[11:50] <sri> I'm trying to copy a bunch of mp3s from my windows machine to my linux machine
[11:51] <TmWrk_Quil> gah!
[11:51] <SkyMountaineer> looking for some help with my sound card i have read all the doco and still it does not work
[11:51] <TmWrk_Quil> apt-get install openssh-server - THATS ALL i had to type!
[11:51] <TmWrk_Quil> what a load o' crap - this is too easy
[11:51] <keith> what version of gnome is ubuntu dapper ?
[11:51] <TmWrk_Quil> you guys are spoiled!
[11:52] <keith> When is the next release out ?
[11:52] <Leo5> If I could only install Ubuntu server :-(
[11:52] <deus__> Are there any problems with usbnet module and dapper?
[11:52] <k0rd> so i partitioned my disks, got to 28% of installing system and it freezes
[11:52] <k0rd> wtf
[11:53] <Hagane> I'm new to Dapper Drake and I wonder how I can get my resolution/font settings for X to affect the login screen. Can anyone help?

[11:53] <Warbo> Hi, does anyone know what package lets file roller open .deb files? I am on the live CD and it isn't installed (and searching through aptitude for "deb" is getting annoying)
[11:54] <SkyMountaineer> i have some sound card issues any one here help
[11:54] <Leo5> I got a problem installing the server version: during setup it stops when it's reading all physical volumes.
[11:54] <bushblows> how would i go about installing ubuntu server the latest over a network.
[11:55] <Warbo> Gah, bigger problem. GParted isn't actually resizing anything. It takes a while doing something, then it's display shows the right values during the "scanning" time, but once it's finished scanning the display changes back to the same as it was before
[11:56] <ramvi> Ubuntu can't find my wireless network. It finds my wireless network card, eth1, and I've got network manager, but iwlist eth1 scan returns that it can't find anything, even tough I'm 10 feet from the access point
[11:56] <cpk2> you can just do iwlist scan
[11:56] <cpk2> dont need to specify
[11:56] <pike__> ramvi: no other APs showing up either?
[11:56] <Hagane> Is there a config file for the login screen somewhere?
[11:57] <Warbo> Hagane: /etc/gdm
[11:57] <Hagane> thanks
[11:57] <ramvi> pike_, nope. There should be two
[11:57] <none> ramvi make sure the power button/switch for the wireless card is switched on
[11:57] <Leo5> any ideas?
[11:58] <ramvi> none, you've got a point there! :P I'll try
[11:59] <paul0> any opengl expert here?
[12:00] <Hagane> I'm not an expert, but I know a little
[12:00] <mwe> just ask your question.
[12:00] <paul0> i can't run Second Life here, i'll paste into a url my errors with glxinfo
[12:00] <paul0> http://rafb.net/paste/results/8KnZ0E62.html
