[12:01] <kitche> Pixeleet: you can try logging in blindly then typing reset to see if that works
[12:01] <Mouzz> shaggs: the package name is: network-manager-gnome
[12:01] <shaggs> pixeleet  i cant find network manager only network tools
[12:01] <Pixeleet> shaggs: install network manager
[12:01] <Pixeleet> sudo aptitude install network-manager
[12:01] <math> kane77, yes, thnx! :)
[12:01] <shaggs> ahh ok
[12:01] <Bepo> Pixeleet: ok it did nothing?
[12:01] <Pixeleet> kitche: reset would do what?
[12:01] <math> I thought it was thunderbird without mozilla-
[12:01] <Pixeleet> Bepo: it should have remapped your keyboard
[12:02] <kitche> Pixeleet: it resets the terminal sometimes it might work
[12:02] <paranoia16> is there any disadvantages to using 6.10 over 6.06?
[12:02] <Pixeleet> hm
[12:02] <Joe__> Anyone do a network install with ubuntu before??
[12:02] <Bepo> Pixeleet still when I got to System/Preferences/Keyboard nothing is listed under available keyboards or layouts
[12:02] <Joe__> brb..
[12:02] <gpled> paranoia16: i have had nothing but trouble on 6.10.  i dont use it any more
[12:02] <Pixeleet> Bepo: iiirc, nothing will be if you're suing beryl
[12:02] <paranoia16> what sort of "trouble"
[12:03] <Pixeleet> you might need to run gnome-system-settings or something
[12:03] <Pixeleet> i forget, it's been awhile since i decided to run beyrl
[12:03] <elysium444> I got a simple joypad with two axes and 10 buttons, ubuntu regonizes it as a joy pad with 6axes how can i fix that couse i cant move... the buttons are ok.I tried jstest and the joypad is ok, jscal couldnt fix it, how do i remove those axes?????/
[12:03] <gpled> paranoia16: graphics, drivers, partitions, wifi, ....
[12:03] <alien_> paranoia16 6.06 is LTS (something like Long Term Support) , 6.10 is not
[12:03] <Aggrav8d> thank you everyone for the vim help! :)
[12:03] <paranoia16> will the 7.whatever be any good?
[12:03] <paranoia16> the 7 version of lts
[12:04] <Bepo> Pixeleet: so if I turn it off it will all come back?
[12:04] <alien_> paranoia16 of course, dont ask me about what this means... :D
[12:04] <Pixeleet> Bepo: ya, its because you'r running a second X session
[12:04] <Pixeleet> on top o fyour current one
[12:04] <Pixeleet> gnome doesn't know whats going on
[12:04] <gpled> paranoia16: was pretty bad at our club install.  watched it brake like 3 computers
[12:04] <Pixeleet> so a lotta the system settings get screwed up
[12:04] <fenerbahche> !kdm

[12:04] <stu> does the ubuntu 6.10 x86 live CD support ipw3945?
[12:04] <wasabi_> mjr, haha you're right... there's no difference
[12:04] <elysium444> I got a simple joypad with two axes and 10 buttons, ubuntu regonizes it as a joy pad with 6axes how can i fix that couse i cant move... the buttons are ok.I tried jstest and the joypad is ok, jscal couldnt fix it, how do i remove those axes?????

[12:04] <paranoia16> so,k i should probably stick with 6.06, have you tried both ubuntu and kubuntu?
[12:05] <Joe__> okay back
[12:05] <Pixeleet> kitche: i figured out the problem
[12:05] <kitche> Pixeleet: which was?
[12:05] <Pixeleet> the resolution framebuffer gets is wrong
[12:05] <gpled> paranoia16: just ubuntu.
[12:05] <Pixeleet> so resetting does ntohing
[12:05] <Pixeleet> i'm gonna try setting the resolution via menu.lst
[12:05] <Joe__> Anyone ever install ubuntu through a network?
[12:05] <kitche> Pixeleet: ah yeah didn't thinking of the framebuffer since I don't mess witht hat usually
[12:06] <Pixeleet> ya
[12:06] <math> can somebody help me with wine?
[12:06] <Pixeleet> its with ati and fb
[12:06] <Pixeleet> vesa fb works fine
[12:06] <math> it doesnt work here...
[12:06] <paranoia16> i can't figure out installing things. where do things install by default? is there something like there is in windows c:\program files?
[12:06] <Pixeleet> paranoia16: /usr/bin ?
[12:06] <shaggs> do i need to restart after installing network manager ?
[12:06] <bruenig> !doesn't work | math
[12:06] <ubotu> math: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)
[12:06] <Pixeleet> shaggs: yes
[12:06] <shaggs> ok
[12:06] <math> I get this error when using wine: libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[12:06] <schisms> /usr/bin is where apps are installed.
[12:06] <Pixeleet> math: try disabling composite in your xorg.conf
[12:06] <Pixeleet> you using fglrx drivers?
[12:06] <math> ok
[12:06] <elysium444> I got a simple joypad with two axes and 10 buttons, ubuntu regonizes it as a joy pad with 6axes how can i fix that couse i cant move... the buttons are ok.I tried jstest and the joypad is ok, jscal couldnt fix it, how do i remove those axes?????/
[12:07] <math> no Pixeleet
[12:07] <Pixeleet> hm
[12:07] <math> fglrx doesnt work...
[12:07] <gpled> paranoia16: type which <programname>  and you will start getting a feel for where ubuntu likes to put things
[12:07] <bruenig> things install in /usr, /usr/bin has the things which launch the programs, /usr/lib has the libraries, etc.
[12:07] <Pixeleet> if you run glxgears
[12:07] <Pixeleet> do you get that same "claims not to support" error?
[12:07] <nevron> can anyone help me set up an ftp server on a dynamic ip
[12:07] <math> that works Pixeleet
[12:07] <math> no errors
[12:07] <Pixeleet> is its smooth?
[12:07] <Pixeleet> word
[12:07] <math> yes realy
[12:07] <Pixeleet> you didnt get the error
[12:07] <Ppjet6> hi, i'm on konversation, and i'd to know how could i change format to utf8, because some other people doesn't see any accents :/
[12:07] <Pixeleet> hm
[12:07] <gpled> paranoia16: like for vim.   which vim      /usr/bin/vim
[12:08] <Pixeleet> i really dont use wine, i use cedega
[12:08] <elysium444> where are the drivers for joypad??????????/
[12:08] <math> ooh
[12:08] <Pixeleet> and that's always worked out of the box for me, even with fglrx
[12:08] <Pixeleet> :/
[12:08] <math> but thats not for free
[12:08] <elysium444> so I can edit them?
[12:08] <paranoia16> i have an 80gb and a 200gb, i was thinking of partitioning the 80 down the middle, and putting windows and ubuntu on it, formatting the 200gb as fat32. any better ideas?
[12:08] <Ksilebo> Hello, have a question about routing and openvpn, and they're not responding in openvpn. My traffic isn't getting routed...
[12:08] <Pixeleet> paranoia16: seems fine
[12:08] <favico> aewwwwwwwwwwww
[12:08] <Pixeleet> math: ya, its not :(
[12:08] <math> maybe I should try cedega
[12:08] <Pixeleet> but its gaming support is better
[12:08] <gpled> paranoia16: install windows first, and part it with that
[12:08] <Pixeleet> i believe there's a free trial somewhere
[12:08] <math> nice :)
[12:08] <favico> flwww
[12:08] <favico> ^^
[12:08] <math> what about crossoveroffice?
[12:08] <shawn____> what's the command to change my nick?
[12:09] <bruenig> math, it is for free if you know what you are doing...
[12:09] <kane77> paranoia16, if you only want to run it you dont need to know its location, just type in the name of the program... If you're not sure start writing name and tap the TAB key... and it will show you all the programs starting with the specified letters
[12:09] <jrib> shawn____: /nick my_new_nick_here
[12:09] <schisms> I could never get crossover to install.
[12:09] <math> bruenig, lol :P
[12:09] <Pixeleet> math: never tried
[12:09] <Pixeleet> lol bruenig
[12:09] <kitche> math: cedega is sorta free the cost is just to make the support for the games development and therei is always cedega cvs which is free might not work though
[12:09] <user123> hi! how can i record what i hear on my computer?
[12:10] <bruenig> !info soundrecorder
[12:10] <ubotu> Package soundrecorder does not exist in any distro I know
[12:10] <elysium444> I got a simple joypad with two axes and 10 buttons, ubuntu regonizes it as a joy pad with 6axes how can i fix that couse i cant move... the buttons are ok.I tried jstest and the joypad is ok, jscal couldnt fix it, how do i remove those axes????? where is the the scrpt so i can change it?????//

[12:10] <paranoia16> besides ubuntu, is there another good linux os?
[12:10] <paranoia16> and besides kubuntu
[12:10] <bruenig> paranoia16, xubuntu
[12:10] <math> kitche, what does it cost?
[12:10] <rogue780> user123: get a $2 dubbing cable from newegg and connect your speaker to your line in
[12:11] <paranoia16> i was thinking of fedora core 6, but heard it was hard
[12:11] <math> what's the price of cedega?
[12:11] <bruenig> paranoia16, you should go with gentoo
[12:11] <kitche> math: 15 US dollars for cedega binary 5 bucks per month have to get 3 months at first
[12:11] <math> sorry about my language... Im not english
[12:11] <rogue780> user123, then use any recording program you want
[12:11] <Pixeleet> paranoia16: out of the box support is better with ubuntu
[12:11] <Pixeleet> but its not that hard of a distro
[12:11] <\Dj\Krit\> so when i type pccardctl ls, i get nothing, hot swap doesnt work and nothing shows with pccardctl, where is a good place to start?
[12:11] <nontitle> fedora core isn't that bad, but it doesn't have apt-get which is why i don't use it
[12:11] <nontitle> i used to use redhat and fedora core before i used ubuntu
[12:11] <user123> rougue780: it's a good idea
[12:11] <\Dj\Krit\> mind you, this all worked with the kernel for the net install
[12:11] <shaggs> Hmm still cant find network manager
[12:11] <paranoia16> gentoo?
[12:12] <math> is there some trial-version of it kitche ?
[12:12] <elysium444>  I got a simple joypad with two axes and 10 buttons, ubuntu regonizes it as a joy pad with 6axes how can i fix that couse i cant move... the buttons are ok.I tried jstest and the joypad is ok, jscal couldnt fix it, how do i remove those axes????? where is the the script so i can change it?????
[12:12] <rogue780> nontitle: fedora core has yum, which is basically as good as apt-get
[12:12] <kitche> elysium444: it's in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:12] <paranoia16> rogue, you have used fedora?
[12:12] <user123> rogue780, but there is not a soft method
[12:12] <bruenig> paranoia16, Linux Mint
[12:12] <Pixeleet> kitche: i found an easier fix
[12:12] <Pixeleet> remove "splash" from menu.lst
[12:13] <Pixeleet> lol
[12:13] <kitche> math: you can try to compile cedega cvs but it might work and it might not
[12:13] <elysium444>  kitche:how do i know which one?
[12:13] <rogue780> user123: not that I am aware of
[12:13] <bruenig> paranoia16, or that might be mint linux, I forget which is first
[12:13] <paranoia16> how hard is it to install a rpm in fedora?
[12:13] <elysium444>  kitche:ok I got it
[12:13] <math> I'm not that advanced kitche...
[12:13] <bruenig> paranoia16, as hard as it is to install a deb in ubuntu
[12:14] <paranoia16> is there as much help like there is here for fedora? (nope, isn't taht what ubuntu is all about?)
[12:14] <rogue780> I just put together a mini itx pc in an NES case...I am going to use it as a mythtv frontend, and it has xubuntu on it with fluxbox. My problem is that it uses the CN700 chipset for it's unichrome pro video driver...which is lacking support. I haven't found anything in the wiki's..can someone help please?
[12:15] <bruenig> paranoia16, not as much no. If you want to go with other distros, what I would do is use ubuntu for a few months, get really used to linux, so much so that you could navigate around in just a shell. And then move to other distros
[12:15] <paranoia16> that sounds good. what do you mean "in a shell" you mean getting used to a terminal?
[12:16] <elysium444>  kitche: I couldn't find the joypad I just found mouse keboard and monitor
[12:16] <shaggs> aha i found it
[12:16] <n2diy> I just installed K3B with Synaptic started it up no problem, shut it down, and now it won't re-start, from the menu, or command line?
[12:16] <kitche> elysium444: it might be called mouse I m not that great with joysticks
[12:16] <Reyaht_> speaking of terminal, anybody know a reason why I would be able to put a hotkey on anything beside  the terminal?
[12:16] <elysium444>   kitche: I couldn't find the joypad I just found mouse keboard monitor and server layout
[12:16] <rogue780> anyone?
[12:17] <kitche> n2diy: what does the error say when you try to start it from the cli(command line)
[12:17] <howieson27> have amybody the same problem i have feisty and my burner is not find under k3b?
[12:17] <n2diy> kitche, no error, it just sits there and I have to control-z to get my prompt back.
[12:18] <paranoia16> today, i installed packages, but i don't think it worked right, the installations. is there someway i can "clean" my system? something like using crap cleaner for windows
[12:18] <elysium444>  kitche: its not mount because icant see the path of my joystick "/dev/input/js0"
[12:18] <shaggs> ok has anyone got the time and knowledge to help with a pci-e radeon problem
[12:18] <elysium444> mouse*
[12:18] <kitche> howieson27: ask in #ubuntu+1 it's for the future version of ubuntu they can answer your question better
[12:18] <howieson27> ok thanks
[12:19] <elysium444> kitche: its not mouse* because icant see the path of my joystick "/dev/input/js0"
[12:19] <lalow> hola
[12:19] <paranoia16> is there someway to automatically scan file system and remove unused things
[12:19] <lalow> ahi alguien

[12:23] <HentaiSushi> can someone pm me i need help with the new edgy eft
[12:23] <darwin188> hello
[12:23] <Succubi> hi people - question regarding mdadm.. i have a raid1 on my system... and i would like to flag one of the devices as --write-mostly, but the man says the option is valid for adding a device to the array... does anyone have an idea how i can do this with an existing device?
[12:23] <Reyaht_> lalow
[12:23] <darwin188> i have a powermac g4 and i tried installing ubuntu but x11 wont start
[12:23] <bruenig> !someone | HentaiSushi
[12:23] <ubotu> HentaiSushi: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:24] <paranoia16> i am wondering if there is a program to scan my drives and delete programs that aren't installed correctly
[12:24] <n2diy> paranoia16: Update might do that, it has told me about broken packages in the past.
[12:24] <HentaiSushi> wtf
[12:24] <kitche> HentaiSushi: just state your problem and someone can/will help you if they can help you
[12:24] <HentaiSushi> theres too many people talking at once
[12:24] <Reyaht_> lalow usted habla ingls, o apenas espaol?
[12:24] <bruenig> paranoia16, what makes you think that there are any broken packages
[12:24] <HentaiSushi> ok fine
[12:24] <dustrh> restricted modules not installed on server install?
[12:24] <darwin188> i have a powermac g4 and i tried installing ubuntu but x11 wont start
[12:24] <bruenig> HentaiSushi, just ask your question, people will address you with your name generally, so you should be able to follow
[12:24] <HentaiSushi> i run the new cd, and it stops when trying to load the xserver
[12:25] <HentaiSushi> so i cant install it
[12:25] <paranoia16> for example, i installed warzone 2100, but it doesn't work. i don't know why. i want to just completely remove it all.
[12:25] <kitche> HentaiSushi: that's why people use names in front of who the sentence goes to easier to keep track of who says what and to whom
[12:25] <Some_Person> i changed around my partitions
[12:25] <bruenig> paranoia16, how did you install it?
[12:25] <darwin188> i have a powermac g4 and i tried installing ubuntu but x11 wont start
[12:25] <Some_Person> and my root should now be /dev/hda5
[12:25] <blahblah123> Does anyone have issues adjusting brightness in videos in totem, gxine, and mplayer only when nvidia's driver is installed and enabled in Ubuntu 6.10 only?
[12:25] <Some_Person> but its still set to /dev/hda6
[12:25] <paranoia16> i followed some instuctions that didn't work so great. it was a tar.gz
[12:25] <Some_Person> how do i fix that?
[12:26] <n2diy> HentaiSushi: what is your video card, and monitor?
[12:26] <Some_Person> i can access hda5 from windows
[12:26] <bruenig> paranoia16, if you could link to the instructions, I could probably figure out where it was installed
[12:26] <\Dj\Krit\> having some trouble with my pcmcia on my laptop with edgy, seems edgy doesnt see it
[12:26] <kitche> Some_Person: you have to boot to the live cd and chroot in and edit the menu.lst so you can boot into your new partition
[12:26] <\Dj\Krit\> but i'm not sure how to know for sure what's going on
[12:26] <paranoia16> i don't remember, but i will look, hold on
[12:26] <Some_Person> cant i just edit it thru windows?
[12:27] <CPF_> Hi
[12:27] <bruenig> paranoia16, as far as your broken installs things, that is not likely. Especially if you are installing stuff from source, there is no way that a program would really be able to detect whether some extracted directory was doing what it was intended to do
[12:27] <kitche> Some_Person: you don't really need to chroot but makes it easier just in case you type in /boot you go to your system /boot and not the live cd /boot you can do it though windows also if you wish
[12:27] <CPF_> I've got this really annoying question...
[12:27] <dustrh> restricted modules not installed on server install? My wireless card is not initializing at startup, any ideas?
[12:27] <CPF_> Anyone here knows something about the intel sound?
[12:27] <CPF_> I'd like to install the drivers (because that is what I think making my mic not working)
[12:28] <kitche> CPF_: yes I have a ich chipset
[12:28] <paranoia16> well, i guess im a neat freak so to say. i want that useless crap i didn't install right off. today i tried installing beryl, i installed lots of .deb, but it didn't work, so now i want to know how i can remove the ones i don't need. i guess i just needed to remember what they were called
[12:28] <Reyaht_> intel sound got done automatically with ubuntu
[12:28] <CPF_> kitche: have you installed the sound drivers?
[12:28] <n2diy> CPF, have you tried configuring it with ALSA
[12:28] <CPF_> n2diy: yep
[12:28] <kitche> CPF_: they are built in to the kernel no need to install the intel drivers
[12:28] <CPF_> I followed all the steps like a little pet
[12:28] <elysium444>  kitche: I have tried that package but couldn't remove axes just did calibrate them and i dont need calibration as i am usin a joypad...
[12:28] <bruenig> paranoia16, yeah as far as debs are concerned, just remember their names and sudo apt-get remove them. Source installs are a bit harder
[12:28] <n2diy> CPF, are you sure the mic works?
[12:29] <kitche> CPF_: so you went into alsamixer and unmuted the microphone?
[12:29] <CPF_> I tried OSS and alsa, the funny thing OSS allows it, but you cannot hear anything, while alsa does not allow it.
[12:29] <paranoia16> is there a way to see which .deb i installed today? sort them by date or something
[12:29] <CPF_> All is unmuted, and the mic works on windows
[12:29] <kitche> elysium444: ask your question agains icne liek I said I don't know joypad's/joystick that well
[12:29] <elysium444> ok
[12:29] <CPF_> But since I'm stepping over to linux ompletely, I'd like to be able to use skype...
[12:29] <RasQulec> when I try to do an apt-get update it complains that http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/source/Sources.gz      is not in gz file format. I looked at it in firefox and it gave me the textual content in the browser and I dont recall firefox being able to look inside gz files so It seems something is wrong with it. this keeps me from doing apt-get build-dep stuff
[12:29] <bruenig> paranoia16, if you could link any of these how to's or instructions you followed...
[12:30] <CPF_> So, if I can't get this fixed, I feel really fucked.
[12:30] <mohlert3> Anyone: I am brand new to Edgy and Linux for that matter and I love it   I am in here get some help on some things though. Why does my user name change every time I come in here?  It started out as mohlertm then mohlert1 then mohlert2 and now mohlert3.  Does anyone know why that is?
[12:30] <n2diy> paranoia16: the .deb packages reside in a directory, nautilus can sort them.
[12:30] <elysium444>  I got a simple joypad with two axes and 10 buttons, ubuntu regonizes it as a joy pad with 6axes how can i fix that couse i cant move... the buttons are ok.I tried jstest and the joypad is ok, jscal couldnt fix it, how do i remove those axes????? where is the the script so i can change it?????
[12:30] <paranoia16> where is the dir?
[12:30] <CPF_> I'd like to continue using ubuntu though, but the mic doesn't work, and I don't know what else to do.
[12:30] <paranoia16> the how to, i can't find it
[12:30] <bruenig> paranoia16, if you did it in the terminal, you can open the terminal up and start hitting the up arrow until you find the command you used to install it. And then figure out it's name and uninstall it
[12:30] <kitche> CPF_: did you just test your microphone with skype or with a recording program?
[12:30] <CPF_> Both
[12:30] <CPF_> None work

[12:43] <bruenig> RasQulec, what mirrors are you using?
[12:44] <WizCraker> I installed this through ubuntu and can not find the snmp.conf.
[12:44] <RasQulec> just the ones that were in the /etc/apt/sources.list file when I installed ubuntu ):

[12:45] <rbil> where does one set the delay time on a mouse hover in ubuntu?
[12:45] <kitche> \Dj\Krit\: dmesg it should say if it sees your pcmcia card when you put it in the slot

[12:47] <darwin188> SOS
[12:48] <kitche> rapid-: don't worry about it I tend to do that sometimes :)
[12:48] <WizCraker> I guess my question would be where is the global snmp.conf file?
[12:48] <RasQulec> darwin188: did you look in your xorg log file to see what could be causing it?
[12:48] <kitche> WizCraker: check /etc might/should be there if not it might be in /usr/share/examples
[12:48] <darwin188> long ago but i am not to familiar
[12:48] <darwin188> with that stuff
[12:49] <RasQulec> look at the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:49] <cld2> any idea why my gnome panel wont stay where I put it? I want it non-expanded on the bottom of the screen but when I logout and log back in its on the top of the screen. thanks.
[12:49] <darwin188> and then?
[12:49] <RasQulec> google any errors your find
[12:49] <kitche> cld2: did you save your session when you logout? each time
[12:50] <cld2> kitche: thanks, let me look
[12:50] <cld2> do I want, automaticlly save changes to sessions? checked?
[12:50] <cld2> on my box at home I didnt do this and the panel stays they way I put it. very strange

[12:51] <WizCraker> kitche: under /etc/snmp I have a snmpd.conf file among a few other .conf files.

[12:51] <CaptainDoom> anybody here have twinview with nvidia driver working?
[12:52] <rbil> how do you set delay on mouse hover action?
[12:52] <WizCraker> kitche: I'm assuming that would be the same thing as the snmp.conf?
[12:52] <Mark2> I downloaded the CD thing, burned the ISO to a disk, and whenever I start up on it
[12:52] <Mark2> it starts up, gets to the desktop and after a bit it freezes
[12:52] <kitche> WizCraker: snmpd.conf might be for the daemon
[12:52] <TOR_CNR> any idea on how to make labels vertical on a vertical panel? :P I'm only seeing the icons now, the labels seem to stay horizontal.
[12:52] <Mark2> once it took almost a minute to freeze, another time it only took a few seconds
[12:52] <WizCraker> kitche: hmm, I wonder if I have to create one then...

[01:00] <joost> is the smbfs fstab mount -> HAL error bug going to be solved?
[01:01] <CaptainDoom> nobody have sucessfully set up twinview?
[01:01] <rbil> RasQulec: if you hover mouse over a mp3 icon in nautilus it will start playing the tune. there is someway to set the time delay before it'll start to play
[01:01] <RasQulec> rbil: O_o I had no idea it would do that
[01:01] <rbil> seen it at one time, but now can't find it
[01:01] <\Dj\Krit\> RasQulec: dmesg shows nothing about cardbus
[01:02] <RasQulec> \Dj\Krit\: how about lsmod
[01:02] <\Dj\Krit\> nothing there either
[01:02] <rbil> must also be a way to not just play a tune, but maybe even launch a player?
[01:02] <RasQulec> then I dont think the modules are loaded ):
[01:02] <PriceChild> RasQulec, you have to install a package
[01:02] <\Dj\Krit\> what module would i have to load?
[01:02] <\Dj\Krit\> using edgy btw
[01:02] <rjefferson> http://pastebin.ca/286899
[01:02] <rjefferson> ok captaindoom
[01:02] <RasQulec> rbil: that is AWSOME I never knew it would do that
[01:02] <joost> any ubuntu developers in here?
[01:03] <RasQulec> rbil: also I never saw any setting for that
[01:03] <ToHellWithGA> is there a command to rebuild grub's menu automagically?
[01:03] <RasQulec> \Dj\Krit\: try modprobe cardbus
[01:03] <n2diy> rbil, take a look at /usr/bin/gnome-mouse-properties
[01:03] <simmerz> has anyone got a TI acx 111 wireless card working successfully with ubuntu?
[01:03] <jw_606> Question: If I mark a package from Synaptic for Reinstallationj, does it uninstall then reinstall? Does it do anything?
[01:03] <RasQulec> rbil: It sounds more like it would be a nautilus setting to me
[01:03] <\Dj\Krit\> RasQulec: FATAL: Module cardbus not found.
[01:03] <kitche> jw_606: it reinstalls it by just installing the package again
[01:03] <RasQulec> rbil: or a general gnome setting
[01:03] <rbil> that's what I thought, but can't see it
[01:03] <Mark2> kitche, where can i get the alternate cd?
[01:03] <RasQulec> \Dj\Krit\: what card is it? and whats your pcmcia chipset?
[01:03] <rbil> where is general gnome setting?
[01:04] <rbil> some gui for that?
[01:04] <rbil> maybe that was it
[01:04] <RasQulec> rbil: I dont think so, I would look in your ~/.gnome folder
[01:04] <kitche> Mark2: from the ubuntu website, the same place where you got the desktopcd
[01:04] <Mark2> i cant find it, lol
[01:04] <rjefferson> CaptainDoom: ignore the modlines, i was trying to fix it myself
[01:04] <Mark2> errr, w8

[01:31] <bimberi> sw33t: yes
[01:31] <n2diy> darwin188: I had the same problem, never found the answer, and did a new install. It was painful.
[01:31] <PriceChild> !ftp > pricechild
[01:31] <RasQulec> sw33t: you can but you have to set up grub to list the other OS manualy
[01:31] <sw33t> bimbery i tired.
[01:31] <Maprix> cymuhep: u can not get cdega for free
[01:31] <sw33t> dam lol too late.

[01:31] <PriceChild> sharp15, there is a howto for a ftp server on the forums if you'r einterested
[01:31] <Jerry|M> yes
[01:31] <kitche> Maprix: well you can but it might not work it's cedega cvs I know it hasn't worked for me for a while

[01:31] <sw33t> i put in different.
[01:32] <sharp15> PriceChild: that will work, do you have a link?
[01:32] <Jerry|M> it only works if I do ubuntu after xp
[01:32] <sw33t> so u cant.
[01:32] <RasQulec> sw33t: I have them on different hard drives
[01:32] <PriceChild> Maprix, the free version has no cdprotection enabled
[01:32] <Maprix> cymuhep u can get a timed demo or compile it your self but u will be out of date
[01:32] <sw33t> hmm
[01:32] <cymuHep> DarthShrine how?
[01:32] <sw33t> o well im already installing dem on same hd.
[01:32] <darwin188> n2diy: ati rage 128 pro
[01:32] <bimberi> RasQulec: worked automatically for me (w98 on hda1 and Ubuntu on hdb1)
[01:32] <DarthShrine> cymuHep: Compile it from CVS. There are various howtos on the internet.
[01:32] <cymuHep> Maprix compile?
[01:32] <RasQulec> bimberi: worked for me too :)
[01:33] <PriceChild> sharp15, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79588
[01:33] <RasQulec> bimberi: but if he did it by first ubuntu then XP he has to do it manualy
[01:33] <sw33t> why would u dualboot ubuntu and xp?
[01:33] <kitche> !cedega|cymuHep
[01:33] <PriceChild> sharp15, worked for me
[01:33] <ubotu> cymuHep: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[01:33] <sharp15> PriceChild: one question.  what does "!ftp > " mean?
[01:33] <RasQulec> sw33t: games... and thats my only reason
[01:33] <Maprix> Pricechild: i had the Free 1 i have over 2,000 and out of all the 1 i tested about 100 only 3 worked
[01:33] <bimberi> RasQulec: ah, missed that :)
[01:33] <sw33t> just use Vmware.
[01:33] <PriceChild> sharp15, that made ubotu send you a message
[01:33] <RasQulec> sw33t: thats WAY too slow for 3d games
[01:33] <clop> hrmn, my vncserver dies with the fatal error: could not open default font "fixed", is there a package i can get that in?
[01:33] <n2diy> darwin188:  Sorry, I never found the answer.
[01:33] <Maprix> 2,00 pc games*
[01:33] <darwin188> thats ok
[01:33] <sw33t> dats y ur main OS will be XP.
[01:33] <Maprix> 2,000*
[01:33] <bimberi> !vncfix | clop
[01:33] <ubotu> clop: If you are getting errors like "could not open default font 'fixed'" when running a VNC server: 'sudo ln -s /usr/share/X11/fonts /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts'
[01:33] <PriceChild> sw33t, doesn't even do most 3d cuz of no access to gpu
[01:34] <sw33t> u mean games on ubuntu or xp?
[01:34] <sharp15> PriceChild: thanks for your help.  i'll go check out that how to.
[01:34] <RasQulec> sw33t: ubuntu is my main os because I like it better :/ I play most of my games on linux [ut2004 and such] 
[01:34] <darwin188> so does anyone else knows how to get the x11 server started on a powermac G4
[01:34] <sw33t> i see.
[01:34] <PriceChild> Maprix, i'm not surprised
[01:34] <Maprix> i meen XP game i only eva use Windows for gaming
[01:34] <RasQulec> sw33t: only oblivion and game from valve are in windows for me
[01:34] <sharp15> darwin188: startx?
[01:34] <sw33t> i have vista and xp.
[01:34] <PriceChild> Maprix, there's nothing wrong with dual booting :)
[01:34] <randy_> can somebody help me and teach me how to install limewire for linux?
[01:34] <sw33t> cant play CS with vista So,,,,,
[01:35] <PriceChild> randy_, sudo apt-get install limewire ?
[01:35] <bimberi> !limewire | randy_
[01:35] <ubotu> randy_: limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[01:35] <Maprix> i Dual boot it better than buying to systems
[01:35] <randy_> where do i get java first?
[01:35] <PriceChild> randy_, listen to him :)
[01:35] <randy_> i wanna get java first :p
[01:35] <clop> bimberi, hrmn, that didn't seem to fix it
[01:35] <bimberi> !java | randy_
[01:35] <ubotu> randy_: 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
[01:35] <PriceChild> !java | randy_
[01:35] <PriceChild> hehe :)
[01:35] <Jerry|M> kitche: How can I tell if I'm using aiglx or the regular glx?
[01:35] <randy_> thankyou
[01:36] <darwin188> help starting up ubunt
[01:36] <darwin188> u
[01:36] <sw33t> o hey guys.
[01:36] <PriceChild> Jerry|M, that's a strange question...
[01:36] <RasQulec> Jerry|M: I think aiglx requires glx to b e working
[01:36] <kitche> Jerry|M: aiglx is built into the X server which needs glx to even run
[01:36] <sw33t> i accidently deleted the taskbar from ubuntu
[01:36] <Jerry|M> ahh ok :P
[01:36] <PriceChild> Jerry|M, they're different things completely....
[01:36] <bimberi> clop: hmm, that's not good.  It has helped others (not me though - I just knew the factoid was there) :|
[01:36] <sharp15> darwin188: or were you referring to configuration?
[01:36] <Maprix> jerry: if u are on ubuntu 6.10 and have installed beryl then u have AiGLX
[01:36] <darwin188> configuration i guess
[01:36] <RasQulec> sw33t: so right click your remaining bar and add it back
[01:36] <RasQulec> Maprix: he cant get glx working yet
[01:36] <darwin188> how do i configure ubuntu so it can run x11
[01:36] <sw33t> i need the bottom one,
[01:36] <Jerry|M> well.. glxgears is running now.. but it's rather slow
[01:36] <PriceChild> sw33t, its a "panel", "rm ~/.gnome-panel" will revert to defaults
[01:37] <darwin188> i have an ati rage 128 pro
[01:37] <PriceChild> sw33t, or you could add things manually
[01:37] <Maprix> Jerry: what graphics card do you u have
[01:37] <RasQulec> Jerry|M: the integrated is not a fast gaming solution
[01:37] <sharp15> darwin188: try this ... "X -configure"
[01:37] <arte_> what if i kill pannels in session n  next time i booi i cudnt find it ?
[01:37] <tom47> darwin188 which ubuntu do you hav installed?
[01:37] <sw33t> how can i get botom one back i have top one.
[01:37] <arte_> what i have to do then ?
[01:38] <PriceChild> darwin188, hehe i have to put up with that card here for 3 weeks
[01:38] <PriceChild> darwin188, i think mine has a hardware fault also.... :P
[01:38] <PriceChild> darwin188, what drivers are you running on?
[01:38] <Jerry|M> Well I would think some gears would spin faster than this :P
[01:38] <Jerry|M> Speed increases if I shrink the window
[01:38] <clop> i have this problem with emacs too, it just gives me some box font when it starts up, so i have to change it to something usable each time
[01:38] <clop> maybe i'm missing a font package or something
[01:38] <kitche> Jerry|M: well the i810 driver isn't that great for 3d support that's why it's slow
[01:39] <Maprix> Jerry: what graphics card modle and make is it
[01:39] <sw33t> so how can i get my bar back the lower one?
[01:39] <Jerry|M> kitche: Are there any other drivers that support my card? (intel 82845G)
[01:39] <sw33t> i tried the rm `/.gnome-panel
[01:40] <RasQulec> sw33t: right click the top one and do new panel and then right click it and add to panel
[01:40] <Jerry|M> I will try Intel's in a moment I guess
[01:40] <sw33t> ok
[01:40] <RasQulec> Jerry|M: you should try the link I gave you earlier now
[01:40] <Jerry|M> via the link RasQulec gave me
[01:40] <Jerry|M> yes :P
[01:40] <RasQulec> hehe
[01:40] <n2diy> darwin188:  try running, or editting your  xorg.conf. I see if can find the ati rage 128 info you'll need.
[01:40] <harry> does anyone here knows a media player that plays .mkv extension videos?
[01:41] <harry> does anyone here knows a media player that plays .mkv extension videos format?
[01:41] <kitche> !repeat|harry
[01:41] <ubotu> harry: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[01:41] <Maprix> Jerry|m:u need to open up your xorg cionfig and see what graphics its using it should say intell if it say masa change it to intel (im not sure if thats 100% may kill your xserver so make a backup)
[01:41] <sw33t> thx worked

[01:43] <emilia> PriceChild: ok thanks :\
[01:43] <Oompa> SOMEONE CALLED THE OOMPA?
[01:43] <nickspoon> niskel: same thing.
[01:43] <Flannel> niskel: the "desktop" CD is the live CD
[01:44] <ski-worklap> what was that all about?
[01:44] <RasQulec> jon__: have you tried running dhclient wlan0    ?
[01:44] <jevangelo> what the heck
[01:44] <DarkED> lol
[01:44] <nickspoon> niskel: the non-live CD is known as "alternate".
[01:44] <DarkED> he called me for THIS? :D
[01:44] <niskel> nickspoon, Flannel: so I can boot it right to the desktop?
[01:44] <DarkED> anyways, back to the party
[01:44] <Music_Shuffle> Lol. Its Hobbsee! :P

[01:44] <Hobbsee> none
[01:44] <ifdefudu> he did that in #gentoo, too
[01:44] <arte_> why its dangerous ?
[01:44] <niskel> nickspoon, n2diy, Flannel: thanks
[01:44] <ski-worklap> ifdefudu, what?
[01:45] <zylche> It's a broken bot, maybe it spilled the info into the channel after a buffer overflow with the amount of nicks? :P

[01:49] <arte_> lol
[01:49] <Maprix> Price: i use auto matix and it work 100% for me has never messed my system up yet

[01:54] <ParaDoX> I'm having an ndiswrapper issue in Edgy and I've followed all of the guides that I can find. I'm using a Linksys WUSB54Gv1 (i believe), has anyone else had this issue?
[01:54] <mzuverink> I am running Edgy on a HP DV10000 laptop.  It seems to be having problems with power management.  The screen saver does not engage at the appointed time, the screen just blanks and when supposed to turn off monitor it turns off for a moment then returns on, but blanked.  Any one have any ideas on how to fix this?

[01:59] <kitche> RasQulec: umm just to use vista you need a power machine :)
[01:59] <RasQulec> Actually never mind, the 3d is prolly so integrated that the overhead is low

[02:01] <RasQulec> tafsen: either try a different driver series or a new video card
[02:01] <jon__> RasQulec: hey i did what you said i sent the results to you in a pm
[02:01] <kitche> tafsen: that warning is nothing to be worried about it deals with the reverse engineered drivers for ati cards

[02:23] <PriceChild> elysium444, Not sure of that
[02:23] <mzuverink> n2diy, Sunbird is excellent, its a mozilla calendar, stand alone and uses extensions
[02:23] <tom__> hey guys, i've got a widescreen monitor and on res 1440 x 900 its working great, i'd like to bring the res down a level for some games, to try and increase frames. anyone know what the res underr 1440 900 on a ws 19" monitor would be?
[02:23] <PriceChild> elysium444, will check for you
[02:23] <RasQulec> DigitalNinja: I boot from SATA onboard
[02:23] <elysium444> ok thanks
[02:23] <dobsonj> i am trying to set up dvd playing through mplayer and freevo.  for whatever reason, freevo will not detect the dvd disc at all.  however, lsdvd reads it fine and mplayer will play dvd's great under X by itself.  any suggestions as to what im missing?  or could it be a software glitch?
[02:23] <n2diy> mzuverink: Does it have a todo list?
[02:23] <RasQulec> tom__: is it an LCD? then there is only one real resolution :/
[02:23] <mzuverink> n2diy, yes
[02:24] <Slimjim002> if i am running Ubuntu 6.06 but with KDE as my GUI, would i get help here or in #Kubuntu ?
[02:24] <mzuverink> n2diy, its got everything a cal should have
[02:24] <n2diy> mzuverink: cool, I'm searching synaptic for it now.
[02:24] <PriceChild> elysium444, /list
[02:24] <Songbird_Rocks> if any of u live in the UK and would like a AMD64 3000+ i have used boxed 1 right hear only want 5
[02:24] <DigitalNinja> RasQulec: I have another system with onboard SATA and it works fine. It's the system with the SATA PCI card that won't boot. It doesn't have onboard SATA so I added a SATA PCI card
[02:24] <mzuverink> n2diy, have to go get it a mozilla.org, its not on the repos
[02:24] <Jerry|M> RasQulec: Do you know of what to do after you follow the steps for the intel driver install? It really doesn't appear to be doing anything.. at all...
[02:24] <n2diy> mzuverink: Roger that, synaptic doesn't list it.
[02:25] <elysium444> PriceChild: thanks much
[02:25] <RasQulec> DigitalNinja: does lijnux support your card?
[02:25] <UbnNoob> Anyone who knows where "synaptic package manger" keeps its to-do list (which are marked for update etc)?
[02:25] <conreyt> noone currently using cedega?
[02:25] <jrib> Slimjim002: you can ask in either place, but in #kubuntu people probably know more about kde (on average)
[02:27] <RasQulec> Jerry|M: not really you could try restarting xorg
[02:27] <PriceChild> !anyone | conreyt
[02:27] <ubotu> conreyt: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:27] <social-credit> noob....not sure what you mean...but synaptic will give you a list beforre you apply
[02:27] <DigitalNinja> RasQulec: The card is supported. I was able to install Ubuntu on it
[02:28] <RasQulec> DigitalNinja: sorry I forgot the question then
[02:28] <tom__> RasQulec: yeah its an lcd, does that mean i can't go down one res?
[02:28] <conreyt> PriceChild : that is my question......
[02:28] <mzuverink> I would like all real meadia streams to be handle by realplayer instead of the mplayer plugin for firefox, is it possible to do this?
[02:28] <conreyt> I'd like to see if any ubuntu users are using it... nothing more....
[02:28] <DigitalNinja> RasQulec: I'm trying to boot from a PCI SATA card
[02:28] <UbnNoob> social-credit : Not too sure what you mean by "before you apply", my problem is that synaptic thinks that it should update a file (which it shouldnt) and I cant remove it from the update list.
[02:28] <RasQulec> tom__: you can but it will look really bad unless you do one that is half of its native resolution EXACTLY
[02:28] <Songbird_Rocks> i was think about patching ubuntu so when you install it will ask you witch graphics driver you would like to install and install then from the setup cd
[02:28] <simmerz> my ubuntu laptop has slowed to a crawl when i put in my acx based network card. any ideas as to why?
[02:29] <DigitalNinja> RasQulec: Grub comes up but the system just reboots
[02:29] <RasQulec> DigitalNinja: Ah, thats a grub configuration possibly
[02:29] <conreyt> PriceChild : but thanks ;)
[02:29] <PriceChild> conreyt, please ask your actual problem
[02:29] <DigitalNinja> RasQulec: I did a google search and one website says you can't boot from a PCI SATA card
[02:29] <social-credit> update a file...is it a dpendency?....or more recent versin of a program/lib
[02:29] <RasQulec> DigitalNinja: I never heard of that  but its possible
[02:29] <conreyt> PriceChild, please read my question
[02:30] <RasQulec> that you cant I mean
[02:30] <DigitalNinja> RasQulec: I'm doing another default intall just to make sure I installed Ubuntu right
[02:30] <PriceChild> conreyt, nevermind...
[02:30] <UbnNoob> social-credit - synaptic couldnt find the repository, so I did it by hand but now it refuses to unmark it
[02:30] <conreyt> PriceChild, thanks
[02:31] <acuster> Songbird_Rocks, that's functionality that may become quite useful in the future where users may want to use the onboard graphics chip rather than the agp/pci card chip
[02:31] <wy> I reconfigured and it locked my machine. Restarted into secure mode and reconfigured ati driver. But now the line remains.
[02:31] <social-credit> than im not sure why synaptic would try to update....as it doent have the repo???
[02:31] <Songbird_Rocks> im starten to do my on project called XKUbuntuPluss its gunna have Gnome KDE and Xfce on the same cd and all the graphics drivers needed and they will install on set up of the system if u whant
[02:31] <tom__> RasQulec: so like 770 450 or something?
[02:32] <sUb-ZeRo> anyone: I installed 6.10 on a flash drive using directions provided in the WiKi, when I boot from the flashdrive though, my wireless adapter does not appear in the network settings like it does when I use the Live-cd
[02:32] <UbnNoob> social-credit - ah, well, guss synaptic has to go then ?
[02:32] <social-credit> woah there...lol
[02:32] <social-credit> did you compile from source or use a .deb??
[02:32] <PriceChild> Songbird_Rocks, how big do you think this cd will be ^o)
[02:32] <UbnNoob> socialk - .deb
[02:32] <RasQulec> tom__: yes but I would be surprised if it would let you run that, you will most likely have to make a custom modeline
[02:32] <RasQulec> I dont really know how to do them
[02:32] <Songbird_Rocks> well it will be 1 DVD
[02:33] <social-credit> are you trying to rmove it from your system then??
[02:33] <sUb-ZeRo> anyone: How do you "make" ubuntu see a wireless adapter?
[02:33] <simmerz> sUb-ZeRo: with difficulty from my current experience!
[02:33] <Songbird_Rocks> i was allso thinking about adding other programs like Songbird and Xchat to it
[02:33] <wy> Has anyone encountered this cursor problem before?
[02:33] <UbnNoob> social-credit - Synaptic? Yes, then reinstall it and see if that solves it
[02:34] <RasQulec> wy: only seen stuff like that on bad hardware ):
[02:34] <n2diy> sUb-ZeRo: you might need ndiswrapper, google for more info.
[02:34] <tom__> RasQulec: haha no thats ok i don't really want to do that anyway :)
[02:34] <RasQulec> tom__: hehe
[02:34] <malt1> anyone here use DD WRT ?
[02:34] <sUb-ZeRo> n2diy, it works fine from the live-cd, but not my USB live install
[02:34] <wy> RasQulec: It worked well with the old version.
[02:34] <social-credit> try opening gdebi installer...it will be under spp-system tools (or edit menu list under pref to get it there?
[02:34] <n2diy> sUb-ZeRo: Ok, can't help with that one.
[02:35] <Songbird_Rocks> who hear thinks it would be call to see Fubuntu = Ubuntu with Fluxbox
[02:35] <sUb-ZeRo> anyone: I installed 6.10 on a flash drive using directions provided in the WiKi, when I boot from the flashdrive though, my wireless adapter does not appear in the network settings like it does when I use the Live-cd
[02:35] <ToHellWithGA> can i make my tty screens bigger font and/or resolution?
[02:35] <RasQulec> wy: try going back to the old one and see if it goes away, if not you know its a prob with the driver or settings
[02:35] <UbnNoob> social - credit : The problem is not to install the .deb package, it is installed and running. The problem is synaptic that refuses to unmark it as "To update"

[02:52] <Morpheus972> where can i make the bootloader sUb-ZeRo? (all my hdd are like SATA not IDE) so it's sdxx not hdxx labels

[02:58] <cafuego_> Morpheus972: If you want to install on a Mac, you traditionally need a 1Mb HFS formatted bootstrap partition
[02:58] <Morpheus972> no sUb-ZeRo
[02:59] <cafuego_> sUb-ZeRo: broken disk, try another one
[02:59] <Morpheus972> cafuego on the external hdd?
[02:59] <sUb-ZeRo> nope, thats not it cafuego

[03:00] <lovloss> I wonder if shuttleworth ever comes on here ^_^
[03:00] <cafuego_> Morpheus972: Nope, on intel macs I think you'd be better off using bootcamp or somesuch
[03:01] <asantoni> I wonder why ANYONE comes here
[03:01] <lovloss> He could be incognito.
[03:01] <asantoni> it's a break-down of everything that is IRC

[03:17] <HentaiSushi> i dont know anything
[03:17] <lovloss> Its not perfect :(
[03:17] <n2diy_> casemods: possibly, with wine, the windows emulator.
[03:17] <lovloss> most games *dont* run in wine
[03:17] <HentaiSushi> lol
[03:17] <lovloss> most big online games do though
[03:17] <HentaiSushi> ffxii?
[03:17] <jw_606> I cannot get the 'fglrx' command to display my ATI Radeon 9800 Pro card, can someone please help me fix this? I am new to Linux
[03:17] <HentaiSushi> er
[03:17] <HentaiSushi> ffxi*
[03:18] <lovloss> I know someone who runs ffxi in ubuntu
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> alright
[03:18] <J-_> is there a wordpress program that I can download from the repos that can update my wordpress blog off the wordpress server? myname.wordpress.com
[03:18] <sidny4> a lot of games do run in Cedega, which is a glorified version of wine
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> thats all i needed to convert to linux
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> :D
[03:18] <szzmeng> /?
[03:18] <lovloss> neverwinter nights has a patch, and WOW works too
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> how bug should i make the partition?
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> any suggestions?
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> big*
[03:18] <casemods> we are talking about good games, not final fantasy
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> lol
[03:18] <HentaiSushi> bug
[03:18] <lovloss> ya, cedega is cool, but it costs money
[03:18] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: sudo apt-get install wine  :)
[03:18] <sidny4> yeah, stupid money
[03:19] <HentaiSushi> um
[03:19] <HentaiSushi> how big should i make the linux partiton?
[03:19] <sidny4> HentaiSushi: how big is your hd? I'd go no smaller then 10 Gigs
[03:19] <houseB> hey, how do i find the build directory or the kernel dir ?
[03:19] <HentaiSushi> O_O
[03:19] <HentaiSushi> 10 gigs
[03:19] <tdog> can you please tell me how to restart mysql ??
[03:19] <HentaiSushi> i have two hds
[03:19] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: ... how much space?
[03:19] <HentaiSushi> one is 194 Gigs and one is 233 gigs
[03:19] <lovloss> oh
[03:19] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: how much memory
[03:20] <HentaiSushi> 2gig
[03:20] <lovloss> woo nice
[03:20] <HentaiSushi> i used to run ubuntu on vm
[03:20] <HentaiSushi> but it got annoying
[03:20] <HentaiSushi> so i decided to dual boot
[03:20] <runes> hello everyone!
[03:20] <HentaiSushi> hi
[03:20] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: id give it a 20 gig partition, a 5 gig swap space and make a big data space for all your files, set that to /home
[03:20] <runes> wow 6.10 rocks
[03:20] <runes> !
[03:20] <sidny4> HentaiSushi: haha, you've got tons of room and ram, how much are you willing to spare?
[03:20] <lovloss> that way if you ever need to reinstall ubuntu, you only need to rewrite system stuff
[03:20] <HentaiSushi> i dont mind how much
[03:20] <ChristianH676> !Democracy Player
[03:21] <runes> I tried 5x, 6.06....
[03:21] <HentaiSushi> is 80 Gigs too much?
[03:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about Democracy Player - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:21] <Nox754> !/
[03:21] <runes> and this by far is the smoothest install and performs a LOT better
[03:21] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: Youll never fill it up
[03:21] <casemods> !hi
[03:21] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!

[03:21] <HentaiSushi> woa

[03:21] <Apollo> will ubuntu install alright on a dell inspiron pent III 600 mhz with 512 mem without major issues?

[03:21] <HentaiSushi> ill be fine lovloss
[03:21] <casemods> !ok
[03:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ok - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:21] <HentaiSushi> i dont use it for anything anyways
[03:22] <sidny4> HentaiSushi: I'm running off of 40 gigs, it's nowhere near full
[03:22] <HentaiSushi> oh

[03:22] <runes> How do you create a simple bash script ( I have a portal software that requires chmodding evertime I create a user)
[03:22] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: You'll be fine. Make about 20 gig or so for system, a huge space for data, and a 5 gig swap space... 1,5 gigs of swap per memory gig
[03:22] <lovloss> plus a bt extra
[03:22] <HentaiSushi> i dont know what any of that means T.T
[03:23] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: Swap space ... i dunno what it is, but you have to set it during installation
[03:23] <elysium444> !joystick
[03:23] <Nontitle> i use 6.06 right now, i am going to upgrade to 6.10 once i backup everything of mine... but i am wondering if there will be a big difference between the two
[03:23] <ubotu> joystick: Testing and calibration tools. In component universe, is extra. Version 20051019-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 13 kB, installed size 76 kB
[03:23] <lovloss> lol
[03:23] <lovloss> Youll want your data on a seperate partition from your system files, trust me. your /home that is
[03:23] <lovloss> pays off for me all the time
[03:24] <cafuego_> lovloss: whut?
[03:24] <lovloss> cafuego_: huh?
[03:24] <cafuego_> lovloss: 20 for / and 5 for swap?
[03:24] <sidny4> yeah, if I have to reinstall or anything I'm going to make a /home partition
[03:24] <Reyaht_> is swap space used just during install, or while in normal operation?
[03:24] <cafuego_> lovloss: are you insane?
[03:24] <lovloss> cafuego_ Thats my setup and it works great
[03:24] <sidny4> swap is comparable to windows virtual RAM
[03:24] <checkmate> does the flash player/plugin 9 work without a/v lag
[03:25] <cafuego_> lovloss: sure, until you have 2 GB of ram and your box uses 3GB of swap, it'll be completely unusable.
[03:25] <checkmate> in edgy/dapper
[03:25] <Reyaht_> I have about a gig of swap on a p4 with a gig of ram
[03:25] <Reyaht_> is that good or bad?
[03:25] <h0ndaracer2> hey everyone
[03:25] <cafuego_> Reyaht_: that's fine
[03:25] <lovloss> cafuego_ what? your swap can be too big?
[03:25] <sidny4> Reyaht_: that should be fine
[03:25] <Music_Shuffle> Reyaht_, you'll be fine.
[03:25] <Reyaht_> cafuego, thanks
[03:25] <Music_Shuffle> Hi h0ndaracer2
[03:25] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: 10 Gb of / is more than enough
[03:25] <Nontitle> what would be a good ratio between swap and ram?
[03:26] <h0ndaracer2> wat is wrng with my os
[03:26] <sidny4> yes, if you have a huge swap your comptuer will search longer through it and it could slow your system down
[03:26] <cafuego_> lovloss: Imagine an app leaking memory, the system will starting using your swap space until you run out.
[03:26] <lovloss> I wonder if my computer is being affected then. I have 1 gig of memory....
[03:26] <h0ndaracer2> its extremly slow lately and i sign on to things on the internet or go to a differnt page and my browser just randomly closes
[03:26] <cafuego_> lovloss: Active using 3GB of swap makes any desktop box completely unusable.
[03:26] <sidny4> h0ndaracer2: what seems to be the problem?
[03:26] <HentaiSushi> what
[03:26] <HentaiSushi> why so little
[03:26] <lovloss> cafuego_ my computer is usable
[03:26] <HentaiSushi> isnt 10 gigs small
[03:26] <cafuego_> lovloss: I tend to give mine a limit of around 1Gb of swap all up
[03:27] <h0ndaracer2> i just typed it
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> :S
[03:27] <Nontitle> h0ndaracer2: i have that same problem happen to me
[03:27] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: Not really, all your files will live on /home, not on /.
[03:27] <lovloss> Though i wonder if its slowing down my blender rendering o.O
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> ...er...
[03:27] <lovloss> It takes an awful long time to raytrace
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> sorry for being a noob
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> but what is /
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> ?
[03:27] <lovloss> root.
[03:27] <h0ndaracer2> so what can i do because when i first installed it everything was fine now stuff got slower
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> and that is...
[03:27] <lovloss> your system folder
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> ?
[03:27] <lovloss> :)
[03:27] <HentaiSushi> ?.?
[03:27] <Nontitle> does anyone here have an Nvidia Geforce 4 mx video card?
[03:28] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: My / is 4GB and all system stuff fits; 10Gb is more than enough.
[03:28] <lovloss> for example.      /home/you/Desktop       is your desktop
[03:28] <lovloss> the first "/" is the root
[03:28] <HentaiSushi> um
[03:28] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: '/' is where the system lives, the OS, the applications and their resources.
[03:28] <HentaiSushi> wait
[03:28] <HentaiSushi> thats what the setup did by itself
[03:28] <h0ndaracer2> any help on my problem
[03:28] <HentaiSushi> 1`0 gigs
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> then 2 swap
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> i think
[03:29] <lovloss> it is you outside of any directory. The master control room. Windows "system" directory
[03:29] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: Normally you'd store your own stuff (the /home directory) on a different partition.
[03:29] <lovloss> except in linux, everything is in the system directory! :)
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> i had a L driv
[03:29] <simmerz> trying to use ndiswrapper to get my aerolan wireless card (ti acx based) working and when i type iwconfig, ESSID reports as being off/any and I can't change it
[03:29] <lovloss> sorta
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> drive*
[03:29] <sidny4> I'm sorry h0ndaracer2, I missed what you said, what was your problem?
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> like 80 gigs
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> so i used it
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> and it did 10 gig / or whatever
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> then 2 swap
[03:29] <lovloss> Autoinstall is pretty good
[03:29] <HentaiSushi> and the rest(;iker 60) /home
[03:29] <h0ndaracer2> i just go to a webpage and my firefox browser will randomly close
[03:29] <Nontitle> all i have in total is 20 gigs, i still have 5 gigs left
[03:29] <lovloss> Any way for me to check the size of my swap partition?
[03:30] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: I normally split mine up even further, have a 2GB / and an 8GB /usr
[03:30] <Nontitle> and i have installed lots and lots of stuff
[03:30] <HentaiSushi> go into windows
[03:30] <n2diy_> cafuego does the standard Ubuntu install create a seperate /home partition, or do you need to do it manually?
[03:30] <cafuego_> lovloss: 'free'
[03:30] <HentaiSushi> and look at the disk management
[03:30] <cafuego_> n2diy_: it asks
[03:30] <lovloss> 5 gigs of swap... 1 gig of memory. is my computer slower than it has to be?
[03:30] <sidny4> h0ndaracer2: open up a terminal and type in firefox, go to pages until it closes and it whould say what caused it to close in the terminal
[03:30] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: 10GB, 60Gb and 2GB is fine (though I'd personally make that 2GB a bit smaller)
[03:31] <cafuego_> lovloss: Depends on how much swap its using
[03:31] <h0ndaracer2> ok
[03:31] <lovloss> 5.1 gig to be exact
[03:31] <n2diy_> cafuego, hmm, I don't recall it asking, just giving me the option to manually partition?
[03:31] <lovloss> cafuego_ right now? about 8000.
[03:31] <h0ndaracer2> go to the pages in my terminal? or on firefox
[03:31] <cafuego_> n2diy_: it'll ask something about all files in one partition or not
[03:31] <sidny4> firefox
[03:31] <HentaiSushi> i wonder how many days it will take me to master linux if i stay in this room all the time :)
[03:31] <cafuego_> lovloss: 8Mb?
[03:31] <lovloss> yes
[03:31] <h0ndaracer2> ok i also ran chkrootkit and it found some stuff what do i do
[03:31] <lovloss> but everything's at rest of course
[03:31] <cafuego_> lovloss: that's a wasted 5Gb then ;-)
[03:31] <Nox754> !free
[03:32] <ubotu> freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing
[03:32] <Nox754> !swap
[03:32] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[03:32] <cafuego_> lovloss: under normal use it'll start putting unused apps in swap space and use the freed up ram as disk cache
[03:32] <lovloss> what about when i fire up a big 3d editing program, will i need those 5 gigs of swap?
[03:32] <sidny4> h0ndaracer2: hmm, not sure, haven't used chkrootkit before
[03:32] <n2diy_> cafuego, hmm, I don't recall that either, and I just did a bunch of (failed) installs, but partitioning worked.
[03:32] <cafuego_> lovloss: Not if you need the app to be usable.
[03:32] <CzarAlex> Anyone here successfully install Diablo II?
[03:32] <Nontitle> theres a difference between free software and freeware, free software is completely free, and freeware is only free money-wise
[03:32] <h0ndaracer2> what do u use then
[03:32] <h0ndaracer2> i thought that was the only one
[03:33] <cafuego_> lovloss: using 5GB of swap means that refreshing the memory would take a few minutes at LEAST
[03:33] <sidny4> what do I use for what?
[03:33] <HentaiSushi> ok
[03:33] <lovloss> cafuego_ so my computer is slower than it should be? it takes a loooong time to render animations
[03:33] <HentaiSushi> im going to start asking questions
[03:33] <lovloss> sometimes hours if raytracing is on
[03:33] <HentaiSushi> what does refreshing the memory mean/do
[03:33] <HentaiSushi> ?
[03:33] <cafuego_> lovloss: that's usually a cpu based task, not memory based
[03:33] <lovloss> oh
[03:33] <lovloss> cpu's 1.5 :P
[03:33] <cafuego_> (upgrade! upgrade!)
[03:33] <HentaiSushi> lol
[03:34] <lovloss> *poor* *poor*
[03:34] <HentaiSushi> :(
[03:34] <cafuego_> theft!
[03:34] <deep> Why does my ventrilo say "codec initialization failed: Unable to find the specific codec"?
[03:34] <HentaiSushi> :O!

[03:34] <lovloss> ,,, *idea*
[03:34] <Nontitle> i have a 1 ghz and my compy isn't slow at all
[03:34] <lovloss> is it dual? ;)
[03:34] <HentaiSushi> how do i tell how many ghz i hafe
[03:34] <cafuego_> Nontitle: render a huge 3d scene and say that again ;-)
[03:34] <HentaiSushi> have8
[03:34] <HentaiSushi> how do i tell how many ghz i have*
[03:34] <CzarAlex> lovloss: depends on what all yer trying to do. Im running a copy on a p2 350mhz. runs nice.
[03:34] <lovloss> My compy's not *slow*, but when it comes to rendering a humongous 3d animation....
[03:34] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: cat /proc/cpuinfo will give you some stats
[03:34] <sidny4> hmm, I've never done a rootkit check, is that something necessary?
[03:34] <HentaiSushi> woa
[03:34] <casemods> !dxdiag
[03:34] <HentaiSushi> im running windows
[03:35] <Rug> HentaiSushi: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dxdiag - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:35] <lovloss> Yeah thats true
[03:35] <HentaiSushi> im running windows at the moment
[03:35] <Nontitle> cafuego_: that's the thing; I don't even have hardware acceleration...
[03:35] <n2diy_> cafuego, could I now use a partiton manager to move my stuff into a didicated /home partiton? I have a test box to play with.
[03:35] <HentaiSushi> where do i find it at on windows
[03:35] <cafuego_> HentaiSushi: there's a free tool called 'wcpuid'
[03:35] <casemods> type dxdiag into run in windows
[03:35] <Rug> Win + Pause/Break
[03:35] <HentaiSushi> ok
[03:36] <HentaiSushi> nw where is it at
[03:36] <HentaiSushi> woa
[03:36] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: by the way, look for a patch for windows that allows it to read ext2 format. That way you can copy your files while in windows. otherwise those partitions will be invisible
[03:36] <h0ndaracer2> how do i fix this LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/lib/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browse r/intellinux/nppdf.so [/usr/lib/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so: un defined symbol: XtCalloc] 
[03:36] <pumpkinhead> has anyone gotten the vlc firefox plugin to work with EE
[03:36] <Nontitle> theres a windows patch to read ext2? i never knew about that
[03:36] <HentaiSushi> woa
[03:36] <Mark2> i'm back
[03:36] <lovloss> Yyyep. lemme find it
[03:36] <HentaiSushi> errr
[03:36] <Rug> HentaiSushi: I only support Windows boxes for $$.  My friends and family know better now.
[03:36] <n2diy_> gotta go, 73
[03:36] <HentaiSushi> whats ext2?
[03:37] <Mark2> and, with a memory test, it is all fine
[03:37] <jason_> does anyone know how to get the "config" to work in the superkaramba widgets...?
[03:37] <un_operateur> h0ndaracer2, how did you install acrobat? through the repos or direct from adobe?
[03:37] <HentaiSushi> lol superkarmaba
[03:37] <Nontitle> ext2 is the filesystem linux uses
[03:37] <lovloss> HentaiSushi: The type of format linux partitions have to have. Windows uses NFTS ... preferably...
[03:37] <Mark2> still couldnt get the live cd to work......was really hoping to preview the OS before installing it :(
[03:37] <cafuego_> of course, cpu freq really isn't that much of an indication of speed
[03:37] <h0ndaracer2> no i never thoroughly did it
[03:37] <h0ndaracer2> like i got half way and i was stuck
[03:37] <HentaiSushi> i made my usb stick ntfs once

[03:42] <lovloss> lol.
[03:42] <h0ndaracer2> windows was easier

[03:43] <h0ndaracer2> ok here is the error why firefox closed
[03:43] <lovloss> if its big, use pastebin
[03:43] <tuna-fish-> no seriously, does anyone know  if "yes 0 > /dev/hda1" would effectively wipe the disk?

[03:44] <HentaiSushi> the one with new ubuntu
[03:44] <Gazza545> Yo, does anyone here live in the UK? if so, has anyone developed drivers for GAMEs USB PS2 pad converter?
[03:44] <h0ndaracer2> The program 'Gecko' received an X Window System error.This probably reflects a bug in the program.The error was 'BadShmSeg (invalid shared segment parameter)'.  (Details: serial 755 error_code 167 request_code 144 minor_code 2) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line   option t
[03:44] <h0ndaracer2> o change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
[03:44] <lovloss> Hehe you got the same issue as me HentaiSushi :D
[03:44] <Music_Shuffle> !anyone
[03:44] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[03:55] <Nontitle> is there a big difference between 6.06 and 6.10?
[03:55] <DarthShrine> Joe__: Well, if you want to install 6.06, use the 6.06 Alternate CD :)
[03:56] <HentaiSushi> is that what the alternate cd things are for?
[03:56] <cmweb> How do i config eggdrop

[04:06] <miniman> The printer is already set as share, I just don't know how to use i
[04:06] <bimberi> h0ndaracer2: if you must -->  #ubuntu-bots
[04:06] <_Enchained> bimberi: it's not my problem, I know who to install this but I need to specify it in the build of a package...

[04:08] <h0ndaracer2> ubuntu and the older 1.5 version i think
[04:08] <un_operateur> h0ndaracer2, maybe -- sudo aptitude install firefox=2.0+0dfsg-0ubuntu3
[04:08] <cmweb> ljl, their is not eggdrop.conf
[04:08] <SilentDis> h0ndaracer2:  if you have a .deb package that's newer than the one currently installed on your machine, you should be able to just dbl click it, and click install :)
[04:08] <un_operateur> h0ndaracer2, or if that fails -- sudo aptitude install firefox=2.0
[04:08] <h0ndaracer2> its a bunch of files
[04:08] <HentaiSushi> fine
[04:09] <EcchiSushi> there ya go

[04:10] <sharp15> why would a precompiled program be compiled ipv6 only?
[04:10] <X-Hacker> good
[04:10] <Pelo> EcchiSushi,  this is a linux channel,  but if you are on windows,  using  nero, there should be an option in the maintenance menu

[04:12] <jay_> [Help] My problem is: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38185/.  What should I configure Synaptic Package Manager?
[04:12] <alien_> I wanted to update and got the following message: Some updates require the removal of further software... which software, or what?
[04:12] <Pelo> EcchiSushi,  what's the prog that comes with your cd -burner to do all the burning and stuff ?
[04:12] <SilentDis> h0ndaracer2:  that package you pulled from the firefox website is not a debian package.  it's the application itself.  you can run firefox-bin from the folder you extracted, but other than that, there's no way to 'install' on Ubuntu what you downloaded.  the only way to 'install' it is to use the backports ubotu mentioned :)
[04:13] <alien_> I use synaptic
[04:13] <iamelite> anyone get that?
[04:13] <un_operateur> jay_, you using a proxy?
[04:13] <EcchiSushi> i dont know

[04:13] <EcchiSushi> i guess
[04:13] <SmrtJustin> I have a xvid/avi file that I would like to make into a normal DVD that I can play on my set-top DVD player.  How should I go about doing that?
[04:13] <yairgo> if i boot from my install cd is there a way to see what release version it was?
[04:13] <SilentDis> EcchiSushi:  you might find better help in a windows channel than here.  we're focused on help and support for Ubuntu :)
[04:14] <jay_> un_operateur, Yes, I use proxy.

[04:16] <un_operateur> aliendream23, using automatix is not a good idea
[04:16] <doug_h> anyone care to see the social network associated with the last few hours of this channel?
[04:16] <bimberi> iamelite: no, the Disks Manager has been removed.  pysdm (in universe) is an alternative

[04:17] <aliendream23> either way, now the source list for synaptic won't read, the update manager won't read..nothin', didn't even install it
[04:17] <doug_h> i took the liberty of using youtube so that the horrible quality blurs the names enough that they are unreadable
[04:17] <un_operateur> jay -- is 192.168.0.1 a proxy server?
[04:17] <alien_> thx
[04:17] <wyld> bimberi: forgot to say thanks, so...... THANKS!
[04:18] <aliendream23> just, how do I reset my source list for synaptic?

[04:18] <yairgo> If i have a computer with 2 different hard drives, one for windows and one for linux, how do i set up the boot controller, or where do i set it up?
[04:19] <wyld> grub should set it self up when you install
[04:19] <jay_> un_operateur, I have set the Network Proxy on System=>Preference=>Network Proxy, including HTTP Proxy Address: 192.168.0.1, and details: usernam: anyoujiang, password:*****.  But it still doesn't  work!
[04:19] <un_operateur> mohlertm, vlc should be available in the universe repositories -- try -- sudo aptitude install vlc
[04:19] <yairgo> wyld yeah but i want to put it on a specific drive
[04:20] <un_operateur> jay_, thats not what i asked -- is 192.168.0.1 a proxy server or not?
[04:20] <yairgo> wyld more specifically the one that isnt my ubuntu drive
[04:20] <h0ndaracer2> omfg this shit pissi nme of im gona burn this computer
[04:20] <mohlertm> un_operateur:  I have VLC already installed.  but when I tell it to play the dvd in my drive, it closes itself???????
[04:20] <max_> is there anything like Mac application dock (at the bottom of the screen) in Ubuntu

[04:20] <btiffin> yairgo: man grub
[04:20] <wyld> yairgo: oops, sorry that's out of my leauge
[04:20] <h0ndaracer2> im just gona buy some books tomorw
[04:20] <h0ndaracer2> peace peopl i probly wont be on for a while
[04:20] <yairgo> btiffin man grub? i am talking about the ubuntu install and where it puts grub, not how to set up the grub files
[04:20] <jay_> un_operateur, yes, 192.168.0.1 is a proxy server.
[04:21] <h0ndaracer2> i  hate compurers
[04:21] <btiffin> yairgo: grub has some fairly funky commands for controlling grub-install
[04:21] <LineOf7s> yairgo:  you mean /boot/grub ?  Sorry if I've come in halfway through...
[04:21] <iamelite> bimberi: thanks for that... i have identified the drive... Perhaps some time i should make sence of what hdd1 means ^_^
[04:21] <mohlertm> Un_operateur:  That is what i am asking.  when i go to the link to the seveas link you list above, it talks about Drapper not edgy.  Furthermore, i don't understand what the site is telling me to do?  Are you able to play dvd's in you VLC player?
[04:21] <alien_> yairgo maybe fdisk ?
[04:22] <EcchiSushi> bbl
[04:22] <un_operateur> jay_, and all other internet applications work fine?
[04:22] <yairgo> well since i have everyones attention now, lol, along time ago i used grub with windows/gentoo on the same hard drive and when i deleted my gentoo partitions it said grub.conf could no longer be found
[04:22] <iamelite> But i do know... I completly wiped windows out.
[04:23] <un_operateur> mohlertm, unfortunately i dont have a DVD player on this machine -- so i've never tried to get DVDs working here
[04:23] <iamelite> Im total linux and a noob. This will be interesting how i will be forced to learn new things.
[04:23] <yairgo> basically i want grub installed on my windows hard drive so that if i change unix/linux versions i can still have it boot properly with windows and only have to change my grub file to get to the new unix/linux system
[04:23] <bimberi> iamelite: ha, kk - first partition on the hdd attached as Secondary Slave I reckon
[04:23] <yairgo> because ubuntu is going on a different hard drive
[04:24] <btiffin> yairgo: umm, does grub do that?
[04:24] <un_operateur> mohlertm, do this -- at a terminal -- sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:24] <yairgo> i'm not sure but i konw when i deleted my gentoo partitions the hard drive was still trying to boot with grub and no grub.conf file
[04:24] <yairgo> and the grub.conf file was in a gentoo partition
[04:24] <iamelite> hdd1 means hard drive D partition 1. Im guessing?
[04:24] <mohlertm> Un_operateur:  What will that do for me?
[04:25] <yairgo> iamelite yes
[04:25] <btiffin> yairgo: you may need to tweak MBR boot with --no-config-file
[04:25] <dragonriot> hello fellow Ubuntu'ers... I have a serious problem... I've found a PS2 in my house with a network card and hard drive interface... but Sony no longer sells Linux Kits for PS2... has anyone been successful installing Ubuntu, or any other distro on PS2 without the actual Sony software?
[04:25] <un_operateur> mohlertm, open the sources.list file in an editor so you add some new ones which i'll give you in a second
[04:25] <yairgo> i guess i could just use it normal oh well
[04:26] <D7k> dragonriot: just play nhl on your ps2 and don't waste your time with linux
[04:26] <iamelite> then sda1 means serial drive/disk A partition 1. But then with hdd1 what is hdd a-c?
[04:26] <wy> Hmm... the line below the cursor remains
[04:26] <dragonriot> D7k... I would... but I have 2 PS2s... and well, this one is kinda worthless if it's not a PC...
[04:26] <LineOf7s> dragonriot:  A quick Google provides   http://librenix.com/?inode=1545
[04:26] <iamelite> wait hddc is cdrom/DvD i know that... a + b still makes no sence
[04:26] <yairgo> you have hdd a-c or do you have hd a-c?
[04:26] <LineOf7s> Might be a start
[04:26] <iamelite> hd a-c what i meant
[04:27] <iamelite> hdc*
[04:27] <iamelite> Meh, forget it.
[04:27] <iamelite> k thx guys
[04:27] <yairgo> iamelite so you only have 2 drives, a serial and one ide?
[04:27] <LineOf7s> hdd = hard disk d, as you guessed.
[04:27] <mohlertm> un_operateur: when i put the above string into a terminal  it tells me command cannot be found.
[04:27] <iamelite> yes yairgo man
[04:27] <LineOf7s> hda = hard disk a, hdb = hard disk b etc etc
[04:27] <dragonriot> LineOf7s... thanks, but that is a "blind" install using the Sony equipment... I have none of that... 3rd party drive, third party distro, third party keyboard and mouse...
[04:28] <jw_606> Hello!
[04:28] <jay_> un_operateur, yes, some sofewares work fine, including fire fox Web Browser. But when i use " ftp ftp.gun.org" on the terminal, it has no response.
[04:28] <iamelite> well... one Sata, one IDE disk and the DvD writer
[04:28] <iamelite> dvd writerr is on IDE channel
[04:28] <un_operateur> mohlertm, let's try again --  sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:28] <yairgo> iamelite is it a slave drive?
[04:28] <LineOf7s> dragonriot:  The sequence is "post the link, then read to see what it is".  I was up to step two when you pointed out my folly.  :o)
[04:28] <dragonriot> LineOf7s... but thank you for the suggestion
[04:28] <dragonriot> =)
[04:28] <pos69sum> does anyone else have the problem in gnome when you try to play xmms it says some other application is blocking the sound card?
[04:28] <iamelite> yairgo, the IDE hard disk (NTFS ddrive) is a slave to the DvD
[04:28] <jevangelo> hey, alot of flash videos i try to view have sound but a blacked out screen for video
[04:28] <jevangelo> has anyone had that problem?
[04:29] <un_operateur> jay_, your proxy is not capable of handling traffic other than WWW .. you will need to configure the proxy for the various other traffic you need
[04:29] <jw_606> I cannot get 3D acceleration to run on myATI Radeon 9800pro, I've followed about 3 guides trying to do this and when I run FGLRXINFO I get this. Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[04:29] <jw_606>        Can anyone help me fix this please?
[04:29] <yairgo> iamelite then you do not have a a and b because they would be your first two, it is D because it is a slave and your DVD is taking up C
[04:29] <mohlertm> Un_operateur:  okay souce list is open
[04:30] <un_operateur> mohlertm, ok, paste these two lines at the end -- http://pastebin.ca/287068
[04:30] <jw_606> Here is the full error I get http://pastebin.ca/287071
[04:30] <yairgo> iamelite do you only have one ide cable or something?
[04:30] <LazyAce> how would I format a drive in terminal? A portable drive that is
[04:30] <LazyAce> mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sda <-- didn't work
[04:30] <strabes> jw_606: did you restart your computer after following the guides?
[04:31] <SilentDis> that's better :)
[04:31] <jw_606> strabes, Yes, can you please help?
[04:31] <strabes> jw_606: yes I can probably help. I'm going to walk you through each part of how to do it.
[04:31] <strabes> jw_606: join channel #strabes
[04:31] <jw_606> strabes, Thank you!
[04:32] <iamelite> yairgo, all my stuff is at my exs. Cables... cards... drives. Very sad but i made due with what i had.
[04:32] <mohlertm> un_operateur: Okay Done!  now what?
[04:32] <dragonriot> LineOf7s... I believe I may actually have to install a Mod Chip before installing Linux without the Sony Proprietary software...
[04:32] <Red-Sox> is there a good chm reader for Ubuntu?
[04:32] <iamelite> im never seeing that stuff again... i had a 20 inch crt too. /cry
[04:32] <un_operateur> jw_606, try installing this package -- xlibmesa-dri
[04:32] <dragonriot> thanks for your help again...
[04:32] <un_operateur> mohlertm, at the terminal -- sudo aptitude update
[04:32] <LazyAce> how would I format a drive in terminal? A portable drive that is
[04:33] <LazyAce> mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sda <-- didn't work
[04:33] <AllenA> what did ^^^ do?
[04:33] <SilentDis> !format | lazyace
[04:33] <ubotu> lazyace: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[04:33] <LazyAce> not wanting to mount
[04:33] <LazyAce> it's a portable drive, I would like to use it for back up and portable storage
[04:34] <AllenA> have you setup a partion on it
[04:34] <SilentDis> LazyAce:  easy graphical ways are with Gparted or QTparted :)
[04:34] <AllenA> partition
[04:34] <LazyAce> AllenA, no it's formatted
[04:35] <SilentDis> LazyAce:  i've used gparted to do most all of my various portable USB media :)
[04:35] <mohlertm> Un_operateur: Okay done! Now waht?
[04:35] <LazyAce> i normally do command line
[04:35] <un_operateur> LazyAce, have you tried using fdisk ?
[04:35] <LazyAce> but it's been so long since i've used linux
[04:36] <LazyAce> yea, I don't remember how to use fdisk, and cfdisk won't format the drive
[04:36] <un_operateur> mohlertm, now you can go on to installing what you need from seveas's repo
[04:36] <dragon> LazyAce: cfdisk/fdisk doesn't do formating you have to use mke2fs to format
[04:36] <fnord__> fdisk is the same in windoze as linux,no?
[04:36] <fnord__> kinda?
[04:37] <un_operateur> fnord__, well, the same idea -- but very different program
[04:37] <LazyAce> it's been forever since i've done this. I feel retarded lol
[04:37] <LazyAce> I got gparted atm
[04:37] <LazyAce> playing around with it I guess
[04:37] <mohlertm> un_operateur:  I apologize, again I am brand new to Linux, so forgive the questions.  But what do i need from seveas? I don't understand the site at all?
[04:37] <miniman> Anyone here good with samba?
[04:37] <un_operateur> LazyAce, there's some brief instructions halfway down this page -- http://www.iodata.com/usa/forum/archive/index.php/t-25.html
[04:38] <LazyAce> thanks un_operateur
[04:38] <un_operateur> mohlertm, you were wanting to play DVDs right?
[04:38] <fnord__> !dvd
[04:38] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:38] <SilentDis> LazyAce:  it's been ages since I've formatted/partitioned a disk in linux from the command line.  I tend to just use the graphical tools, just easier lol
[04:38] <LazyAce> yea, i got gparted
[04:38] <fnord__> mohlertm: | !dvd
[04:38] <LazyAce> but it doesn't seem to want to format the drive
[04:38] <mohlertm> Un_operateur: Yes, with VLC.  Also, i have a lot of .avi, .xvid, and .ram files i have downloaded that I would like to play as well.....
[04:39] <SilentDis> !anyone | miniman
[04:39] <ubotu> miniman: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:39] <fnord__> !dvd | mohlertm
[04:39] <ubotu> mohlertm: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:39] <LazyAce> hopefully this old computer can power the portable drive. It's a 2.5" in a drive enclosure. 100gigs
[04:39] <un_operateur> mohlertm,  right -- at the terminal -- sudo aptitude install libdvdcss
[04:39] <miniman> My question would be too broad
[04:39] <redDEADresolve> the resolution on my login screen is wonky. i tried some howtos but nothing worked. Any ideas?
[04:39] <SilentDis> miniman:  ask away.  if anything, we can help you whittle it down to the basics, and help it part by part :)
[04:40] <TokenBad> ok...I have a friend trying to run something through serial port of computer
[04:40] <fnord__> redDEADresolve: are you on a laptop?gateway maybe?
[04:40] <TokenBad> is there something special to get serial ports setup in ubuntu?
[04:40] <mohlertm> un_operater:  I have already installed libdvdcss via the package installer.  do i need to do it again in teh terminal?
[04:40] <mrMISTER> I can't post on the ubuntu forums, because it says I didn't activate my account, yet I have no email in my inbox ... is there anyway to have the activation email resent?
[04:40] <sharp15> anyone here know what to do about this http://pastebin.ca/287081.  i think i need to enable ipv4, but i'm not sure.
[04:40] <miniman> k..Well...Ive been working with samba the past 2 hours, just trying to set my printer as one on the network..But everything I do doesnt work..And some help doing this would be greatly appreciated
[04:40] <houseB> hi.. how do u install the extra graphics on ubuntu
[04:40] <LazyAce> SilentDis, What is the "free space preceding / following (MiB)
[04:40] <redDEADresolve> no im on a desktop with an ati x1600 pro
[04:40] <wyld> is there such a thing as apt-get uninstall?
[04:40] <kitche> mrMISTER: how long did you sign up some e-mail servers it takes a while
[04:40] <un_operateur> wyld, aptitude remove ...
[04:40] <SilentDis> houseB:  what extra graphics?  like extra desktop backgrounds and such?
[04:41] <houseB> for ex the effects of window tabbing
[04:41] <Red-Sox> Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libchm1
[04:41] <mrMISTER> wy, apt-get remove packagename
[04:41] <Red-Sox> Wassat mean?
[04:41] <mrMISTER> kitche, I my account is like 3 months old
[04:41] <mrMISTER> haha
[04:41] <wyld> un_operateur: how do i use that?
[04:41] <un_operateur> mohlertm, if you have libdvdcss installed, you ought to be able to play your DVDs now
[04:41] <SilentDis> LazyAce:  just that.  the free space before the partition starts, and how much free space there is after the partiton.
[04:41] <kitche> mrMISTER: you might have to get a hold of a mod/admin on the forums then
[04:41] <un_operateur> wyld,  sudo aptitude remove <packagename>
[04:41] <mrMISTER> what I think happened, is I got the email, and it let me browse the forums, but I didn't have anything to post until recently
[04:41] <mrMISTER> hm, ok
[04:41] <wyld> ah thanks
[04:41] <LazyAce> SilentDis, so obviously I can't leave them at "0"
[04:41] <houseB> i have seen that in the linux exh.. the guy was also switching between desktops in a 3D cube like rotation.. cool
[04:42] <SilentDis> lazyace:  yes you can.   the partition will take the whole drive then :)
[04:42] <LazyAce> SilentDis, hmmm, so How do I format, "Resize / move" right?
[04:42] <SilentDis> !beryl | houseb - you're looking for something called either beryl or compiz.  here's more info
[04:42] <ubotu> houseb - you're looking for something called either beryl or compiz.  here's more info: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[04:42] <mohlertm> Un_operateur:  okay, let me check real quick. also, do you know if i can play my donloaded movies in .avi, .ram, and .xvid formats?
[04:42] <LazyAce> SilentDis, cause it isn't letting me format with them set at 0
[04:43] <un_operateur> mohlertm, vlc has pretty good multimedia support -- you should be able to play most stuff -- if you can't install w32codecs
[04:43] <un_operateur> !w32codecs | mohlertm
[04:43] <ubotu> mohlertm: 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
[04:43] <wy> mrMISTER: Do you mean that I should downgrade to the xorg of Ubuntu 6.04. Do you remember the version ?
[04:43] <SilentDis> lazyace:  closing some windows so I can bring up gparted myself.  desktop gets confusing at times with web dev stuff going on rofl
[04:43] <Red-Sox> So how do I fix my dependencies?
[04:43] <Red-Sox> Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libchm1
[04:44] <LazyAce> SilentDis, Ahhhhh, not it's letting me do what I want me thinks
[04:44] <LazyAce> I deleted the extended drive that was on it. and it brought up the button that I wanted
[04:44] <Catshrimp> If I wanted to change some of the /proc/sys/net/* information, I'd have to write a script to do it upon each boot, right?  I mean, iptables wouldn't store information like ip_forward, would it?
[04:44] <SilentDis> red-sox:  in a package manager, I assume?  what were you trying to install and what was the error you got?
[04:44] <EcchiSushi> here i go
[04:44] <EcchiSushi> attempting to install ubuntu again
[04:44] <EcchiSushi> for like the millionth time
[04:44] <EcchiSushi> :D
[04:44] <EcchiSushi> bbl ( if i dont break anything)
[04:45] <un_operateur> Catshrimp, you'll need a bootup script -- what i did was edit /etc/init.d/iptables and add extra bits on
[04:46] <cafuego_> Catshrimp: Add stuff to /etc/sysctl.conf
[04:46] <houseB> yeah, its that Beryl thing.. Yay! cant wait to try that out..
[04:46] <Catshrimp> un_operateur cafuego_: ah, both of those would work :) thanks
[04:46] <mohlertm> un_operateur:  That worked perfect!  Vlc is playing dvd's like a champ!  Another quick questions. i have all my downloaded tv shows on my network drive.  the drive is on my xp machine?  I have installed samba and can see the files.  does this mean i can play them off the network on this linux machine using the vlc player.  most of the formats are in .avi.
[04:46] <jevangelo> anyone know why flash would be acting like that?
[04:47] <thomas_> hey guys, i'm having major  troubles with gnome-panel. Everytime i login, the panel crashes immediatly and keeps repeating this way. At first, i thought it was an applet problem, but i don't know, please help me. It's hard to function without a panel
[04:47] <luser[t] > the wikis do not answer my question - sshd broke. what's the right place to find support on freenode?
[04:47] <un_operateur> mohlertm, sure, as long as vlc has access to the files -- it shouldnt be a problem
[04:47] <miniman> k..Well...Ive been working with samba the past 2 hours, just trying to set my printer as one on the network..But everything I do doesnt work..And some help doing this would be greatly appreciated
[04:47] <SilentDis> LazyAce:  after you select the disk, just delete everything on it.  right click in the grey bar, choose 'new'.  free space preceeding 0, new size (whole drive, same as max size, free space following 0.  file system FAT32.  add.  :)
[04:48] <wy> any recommendations for a system monitor? The memory monitor from gdesklets doesn't work properly
[04:48] <un_operateur> wy, gnome-system-monitor
[04:49] <thomas_> use lmsensors
[04:49] <LazyAce> SilentDis, sorry, was off getting cereal haha
[04:49] <LazyAce> SilentDis, so would that be primary, or extended?
[04:49] <noodles12> i just installed edgy on a dell optiplex gx110 with 394mb RAM, PIII. the display seems kind of choppy. What video driver woudl i install ?             http://www.dealtime.com/xPF-Dell-Optiplex-GX110-GX110 the specs just says video output = agp
[04:49] <houseB> so in which directory the kernel source gets installed ?
[04:49] <cafuego_> noodles12: 'lspci'
[04:49] <SilentDis> lazyace:  primary
[04:49] <cafuego_> houseB: /usr/src
[04:50] <noodles12> cafuego_: that is the video driver? lspci?
[04:50] <houseB> cafuego: where else if not there ?
[04:50] <LazyAce> SilentDis, Thanks :D   me <3 long time
[04:50] <luser[t] > sshd was working just fine - i think i updated pam modules, and now it doesn't work. not certain about pam, though
[04:50] <cafuego_> noodles12: it will tell you what card you have
[04:50] <luser[t] > can connect, but no prompt
[04:50] <noodles12> oh lol...
[04:50] <luser[t] > connection closes
[04:50] <k1ll3rdr4g0n> Hello, I have a slight problem with ubuntu (Edgy) and the switch users in gnome,  this happens randomly it seems but when I switch users a BSOD comes up (black screen can't do anything).
[04:50] <cafuego_> houseB: Nowhere else. if it's not there, you didn't install it.
[04:51] <wy> un_operateur: There is also something wrong with the memory. It's different from what top tells me
[04:51] <btiffin> sharp15: Just remove /etc/shutmsg...after you've gone through all the other security rigamarole
[04:51] <thomas_> k1ll3rdr4g0n: ctrl alt backspace.
[04:51] <luser[t] > what's the best place on irc to ask ssh questions?
[04:51] <cymuHep> somebody knows something about XAMPP???????
[04:51] <k1ll3rdr4g0n> I tried that.
[04:51] <Shadow_mil> every time Java loads on firefox... it crashes
[04:51] <SilentDis> miniman:  i haven't done printer setup over samba yet.  my printer connects to my router, and uses LPD.  sorry.  :(
[04:51] <protocol1> #ssh?
[04:51] <k1ll3rdr4g0n> I also tried changing to a TTY, didn't work.
[04:51] <luser[t] > protocol1: no one is there.
[04:51] <houseB> i see.. so linux can work without that kernel source.. i thut it must be there..
[04:51] <protocol1> #linux
[04:51] <cymuHep> somebody knows something about XAMPP???????
[04:51] <houseB> so what is it used for then ?
[04:51] <luser[t] > alright
[04:51] <noodles12> cafuego_: it says " intel coporation 82810E DC-133 GMCH [Graphics Memory Controller Hub] 
[04:51] <luser[t] > i'll try there
[04:52] <miniman> :(
[04:52] <AllenA> houseB: do you know that you already installed the source? dpkg -l|grep linux-headers
[04:52] <cymuHep> somebody knows something about XAMPP???????
[04:52] <SilentDis> !anybody | cymuHep
[04:52] <ubotu> cymuHep: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:52] <thomas_> cymuHep: stop that, ask a real question
[04:52] <redDEADresolve> i made a back up of my xserver-xorg file how do i restore it. the changes i made screwed up my resolution. Thanks!
[04:52] <kitche> houseB: it's needed for drivers and such if you compile them from source
[04:52] <miniman> SilentDis: How can I access the network drives through samba?
[04:52] <ChristianH676> cymuHep, i think there's a thred about setting up xampp at ubuntuforums. that's if you're talking about the lamp server?
[04:52] <frogzoo> !anyone | cymuHep
[04:53] <thomas_> redDEADresolve: copy your backup file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:53] <cafuego_> noodles12: and intel 810 it is, then
[04:53] <procyon> xampp = http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=xampp&btnG=Google+Search
[04:53] <k1ll3rdr4g0n> It seems other people have my problem also, I think its related to the fglrx driver but I am unsure.
[04:53] <redDEADresolve> how do i do that thomas. i shouldn't have messed with something i dont know. im lost
[04:53] <SilentDis> miniman:  I'm running all linux boxen in my home now.  From what I understand, Places > Network Servers > Windows Network should allow you to browse your windows network :)
[04:53] <cymuHep> ChristianH676 yes i am about lampp server
[04:53] <cymuHep> ChristianH676 and i have only one question
[04:53] <killermach> anyone using firewire with a camcorder??
[04:54] <harry> does anyone here knows a media player that supports matroska .mkv?
[04:54] <houseB> AllenA: its there in this installation.. but i got a vmware image of a ready made ubunto which had nothing in /usr/src
[04:54] <SilentDis> !anyone | killermach

[04:55] <AllenA> houseB: sounds as if that images didn't have the source installed
[04:55] <Jerry|1> Is it possible to enable DRI on an intel 82845G (i810 driver)?
[04:55] <ChristianH676> cymuHep, ok look it up at ubuntuforums, there's a long thread all about setting it up. i'd show you the link, but i'm on my friend's computer and it's very slow, launching firefox takes about 2 minutes
[04:55] <houseB> i see.. in that case, how do i  install the source?
[04:55] <max_> would you recommend Kiba-Dock or KxDocker
[04:56] <pos69sum> i accidentally installed xubuntu-desktop by mistake
[04:56] <cymuHep> so when i type http://myip
[04:56] <cymuHep>  it opens in defult http://myip/xampp
[04:56] <cymuHep>  how and where i can change that?
[04:56] <cymuHep>  i need when i type in internet browser http://myip it shows my page not xampp first... :(
[04:56] <pos69sum> and now i'm in xubuntu-desktop instead of gnome:P
[04:56] <pos69sum> xfce is not bad
[04:56] <houseB> (installation complete.. got to restart now..)
[04:56] <thomas_> redDEADresolve: sudo mv /your/backup/file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:56] <procyon> harry: vlc should play mkv
[04:57] <bruenig> xfce is dominant
[04:57] <AllenA> houseB: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.x.x-x where the x's represent the version you need for example i have 2.6.17-10
[04:57] <Flav> i've broken my apache2.conf (drake, 6.06) and i'm trying to overwrite it with the default apache2.conf, but i can't figure out how (apt-get install --reinstall didn't touch it).  Any ideas?
[04:57] <killermach> SilentDis: I asked my second question first several hours ago :)  --> "how do I access my Sony Digital Camcorder with Ubuntu, I have the firewire cable plugged in.. just not sure what to do now??"
[04:57] <jay_> un_operateur, yes, you are correct, maybeI am restricted to 192.168.0.1:8080. How can I change it?
[04:57] <cymuHep> so when i type http://myip
[04:57] <cymuHep>  it opens in defult http://myip/xampp

[04:57] <kitche> AllenA: that's just the headers not the linux source think it's linux-tree
[04:57] <Thorinos> Quick question : when changing an icon for a new one (right-click, properties, etc) how do I keep these change for all files of this kind ?
[04:57] <max_> would you recommend Kiba-Dock or KxDocker
[04:57] <thomas_> I am having an issue with my gnome-panel crashing, i don't know why. its even crashing in failsafe. I have the output error here, somebody please help me out. http://pastebin.ca/287089
[04:57] <k1ll3rdr4g0n> Anyone have any ideas?
[04:57] <ChristianH676> cymuHep, then all you need, and much more, is explained at ubuntuforums :)
[04:58] <SilentDis> pos69sum:  you should be able to log out to the login screen, click options, and choose session.  dot gnome, and log in.  it'll ask if you want to set it as default, choose yes :)
[04:58] <un_operateur> jay_, using a proxy breaks quite a few network aware applications -- if i were you i'd use a router instead
[04:58] <cymuHep>  it opens in defult http://myip/xampp
[04:58] <cymuHep>  how and where i can change that?
[04:58] <cymuHep>  i need when i type in internet browser http://myip it shows my page not xampp first... :(
[04:58] <cymuHep>  yes but when type http://localhost it opens my paage not xampp :/
[04:58] <cymuHep> !XAMPP
[04:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about XAMPP - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:58] <Jerry|1> Is it possible to enable DRI on an intel 82845G (i810 driver)?
[04:58] <SilentDis> killermach:  sorry, I wasn't here for that.  I haven't done anything like that yet, either, sorry :(
[04:58] <killermach> frogzoo: this is a movie camera, I want to d/l into MPEG, I thought gthumb was just still images
[04:58] <procyon> harry: not sure about that, i'm on edgy, but from maktroskas page they claim vlc has the best out of box mkv support
[04:58] <frogzoo> killermach: yes, gthumb is for still images only
[04:58] <harry> procyon: i'll see once i get to install 6.10
[04:58] <kitche> cymuHep check the XAMPP I think in it it tells you how to do what you want] 
[04:59] <killermach> SilentDis: no worries.. it's a borrowed camera, and if I don't figure it out.. I won't be borrowing it much :)
[04:59] <max_> procyon, harry: VLC does do MKV out of bok
[04:59] <harry> procyon: but right now i'm still using breezy. and i have VLC but it doesnt play .mkv
[04:59] <killermach> frogzoo: this camera is a digital camcorder
[04:59] <max_> box*
[04:59] <harry> max_ how?
[04:59] <SilentDis> killermach:  actually, wait... gnomefiles had a video 'dj' program featured... that might help you.  let me grab the linky.
[04:59] <procyon> harry: yeah sorry was on the win sec not linux
[04:59] <max_> harry: my VLC just opens them right up
[05:00] <Shadow_mil> every time Java loads on firefox... it crashes
[05:00] <SilentDis> !lives | killermach
[05:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lives - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:00] <harry> max_ : what ubuntu version do you have?
[05:00] <SilentDis> grrr...
[05:00] <max_> Edgy, it worked on Dapper too
[05:00] <procyon> harry: limatroska
[05:00] <SilentDis> killermach:  http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=432
[05:00] <harry> procyon: limatroska?
[05:01] <procyon> harry: sorry libmatroska if you dont have it
[05:01] <Thorinos> Quick question : when changing an icon for a new one (right-click, properties, etc) how do I keep these change for all files of this kind ?
[05:01] <ChristianH676> Shadow_mil, does firefox crash on all pages which use java, or just one?
[05:02] <Shadow_mil> ChristianH676: all of them
[05:02] <wyld> can gstreamer and xine co-exist in harmony on the same machine?
[05:02] <killermach> SilentDis: My laptop is dual boot ubuntu/winxp pro and the Sony Vaio came with DVGate and my external DVD-Writer came with Roxio DVDAuthor, this is what i used today, but would like to use linux
[05:02] <kitche> Shadow_mil: how do you know it's Java that is crashing firefox?
[05:02] <max_> wyld: they do on mine
[05:02] <harry> procyon: i dont think so?
[05:02] <SilentDis> killermach:  i'm looking over LiVES right now, and the feature set looks to be what you're looking for :)
[05:03] <frogzoo> killermach: --> kino
[05:03] <Shadow_mil> kitche: because it does it on like 4 Java applets... that I have tested... and as soon as they download and I give them approval... the firefox window goes bye bye
[05:03] <SilentDis> killermach:  or kino.  thanks frogzoo :)
[05:03] <harry> procyon: is it libmatroska-dev?
[05:03] <kitche> Shadow_mil: ok run firefox in a terminal and when it crashes it will output the exact error
[05:03] <ChristianH676> Shadow_mil, oh, sorry. i was thinking it could be somekind of exploit. maybe if you launch firefox from the CLI you might see what the error is??
[05:03] <Shadow_mil> I tried that...
[05:03] <wyld> when I install xine, several packages are removed: totem, totem-mozilla, totem-gstreamer, and ubuntu-desktop, Is this normal?
[05:04] <Shadow_mil> chuck@chuck-desktop:~$ firefox
[05:04] <Shadow_mil> chuck@chuck-desktop:~$
[05:04] <killermach> frogzoo: kino.. sounds familiar
[05:04] <Shadow_mil> thats all it does
[05:04] <Shadow_mil> it crashes quick
[05:04] <Shadow_mil> like instance
[05:04] <kroboow> hola
[05:04] <kitche> Shadow_mil: try the jws then from terminal when firefox is started should say the error in there then
[05:04] <kroboow> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[05:04] <Shadow_mil> jws?
[05:05] <ChristianH676> Shadow_mil, try lauching it with the safe mode switch
[05:05] <sharp15> btiffin: sorry.  i'm not sure what you ment by "other security rigamarole" .
[05:05] <moab_> anyone tell me what kernel is installed with Ubuntu 6.06?
[05:05] <SilentDis> wyld:  never seen that before... did you grab gxine or just xine?
[05:05] <SilentDis> !hi | kroboow
[05:05] <ubotu> kroboow: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:05] <kitche> Shadow_mil: it's java webstart also known as the java console the command for it exactly is javaws
[05:05] <kitche> Shadow_mil: if you have java installed that is
[05:05] <Falstius> Shadow_mil: "firefox" is just a script which launches a binary after setting up environment variables (so you don't see the binary's error messages).
[05:05] <btiffin> sharp15: Do NOT open up an FTP daemon unless you know you have it locked down.
[05:05] <wyld> silentdis: I belive that I'm getting xine
[05:05] <procyon> harry: you can find it here http://www.matroska.org/downloads/linux.html
[05:06] <sharp15> btiffin: i know that. this is for within my home network only.
[05:06] <SilentDis> wyld:  if you're running ubuntu with gnome... might be better to grab gxine instead.  i know it doesn't remove anything (got it installed right now, in fact)
[05:06] <harry> procyon: thanks! i look at it
[05:06] <wyld> silentdis: should just an "apt-get install gxine" work?
[05:06] <btiffin> sharp15: Then go to town.  The message you have was just a warning that you are not running ipv6.  Not a biggy.
[05:07] <SilentDis> wyld:  yes.  loosing totem can be a bit of a pain, as it provides an 'easy default' in case everything else fails :)
[05:07] <frogzoo> killermach: also, dvgrab
[05:07] <Shadow_mil> http://pastebin.ca/287095
[05:07] <wyld> true
[05:07] <Shadow_mil> kitche: http://pastebin.ca/287095
[05:07] <sharp15> btiffin: the daemon won't start. that's the only error message in the log.  i can't come up with another reason why proftpd would fail to start?
[05:08] <wyld> silentdis: thanks, it worked
[05:08] <calamari> moab_: do you have 6.06 installed with the default kernel?
[05:08] <procyon> harry: also this may be useful to you http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127563
[05:08] <SilentDis> wyld:  nt, enjoy!
[05:08] <wyld> silentdis: or, at least, it didn't kill me
[05:08] <harry> procyon: i downloaded the libmatroska, how do i install it?
[05:09] <moab_> no i have 6.10 installed and i am having suspend resume issues...i thought i would do an earlier install and i was wondering about the kernel version in 6.06
[05:09] <ChristianH676> Shadow_mil, do you have the firefox from the repos, or did you compile it yourself?
[05:09] <calamari> moab_: oic
[05:09] <cymuHep>  it opens in defult http://myip/xampp
[05:09] <cymuHep>  how and where i can change that?
[05:09] <cymuHep>  i need when i type in internet browser http://myip it shows my page not xampp first... :(
[05:09] <cymuHep>  yes but when type http://localhost it opens my paage not xampp :/
[05:09] <SilentDis> wyld:  lol if you miss totem, you can safely reinstall it.  it'll just kick the 'xine' package out.  and ubuntu-desktop is simply a meta package.  it doesn't 'do' anything but allow other distros (such as kubuntu/xubuntu) install the gnome desktop stuff.  no sweat on loosing it :)
[05:09] <sharp15> btiffin: thanks for the comment.
[05:10] <Shadow_mil> ChristianH676: repos
[05:10] <btiffin> sharp15: I was just looking at the log again.  Checking some docs.
[05:10] <wyld> ok
[05:10] <moab_> calamari_:so what is the default kernel in 6.06 ?
[05:10] <frogzoo> moab_: -> packages.ubuntu.com
[05:11] <wyld> "I see" said the blind man as he peed into the fan, "its all coming back to me now!"
[05:11] <procyon> harry: tar -xvfz <name>, then navigate to extraction and install. But if you're not familar with this process you're are better off sticking with the package manager
[05:11] <Pie-rate> does anyone know how to get the Streamzap remote (http://www.streamzap.com/) working on ubuntu?
[05:11] <ChristianH676> Shadow_mil, oh, sorry i don't know what to say then if it's from the repos. good luck, i have to go to bed now :|
[05:11] <harry> procyon: ok. i'll take that one
[05:11] <SilentDis> wyld:  I see said the blind man to his deaf daughter as he picked up his hammer and saw? *giggle*
[05:11] <procyon> harry: this thread is shoudl help you http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=127563
[05:12] <calamari> moab_: looks like latest kernels are edgy 2.6.17.10, dapper 2.6.15.25, breezy: 2.6.12.16.1
[05:12] <calamari> moab_: so the default might be older
[05:12] <sharp15> btiffin: disabling IPv6 wasn't added untill  the proftpd-1.3.1 build, 1.3.0 is the build in the repos.
[05:12] <killermach> frogzoo: I have kino installed and I'm googling for howto access the camera via 1394
[05:12] <Shadow_mil> ChristianH676: I think its a problem with Java
[05:12] <wyld> silentdis: you know it's late when...... blind men pee and see
[05:12] <SilentDis> wyld:  rofl
[05:13] <harry> procyon: how i compile the VLC? i'm not very familiar with this kind of stuffs
[05:13] <insomnia> oops.  I got too stoned.
[05:13] <moab_> thanks to all...i was having a brain cramp
[05:13] <insomnia> so I'm tryign to install ubuntu.
[05:13] <insomnia> go me!
[05:13] <HouseB> eh!! the 62 updated takes as long as the installation took.. :|
[05:13] <procyon> harry: just follow the steps in that thread
[05:14] <levande1> What package do I need to install to watch mpgs with totem?  Totem keeps saying it needs a plugin to view this type of file.
[05:14] <calamari> moab_: used synaptic to figure that out .. hehehe
[05:14] <SilentDis> moab_:  http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/virtual/linux-image-2.6 - the default kernel is 2.6.15-23-i386
[05:14] <frogzoo> HouseB: shut up already, you want SP2?
[05:14] <SilentDis> !mpg | levandel
[05:14] <ubotu> levandel: 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
[05:14] <HouseB> heh.. true.. sp2 took long time..
[05:14] <harry> procyon: what does it mean if the terminal said, "E: Package libdvdcss2 has no installation candidate
[05:14] <harry> "
[05:15] <moab_> excellent...thanks again!
[05:15] <SilentDis> brb
[05:15] <HouseB> well, at least ubuntu updates keeps me posted of whats going on :)
[05:15] <kitche> harry: you don't have the repo enabled to get that package from
[05:16] <insomnia> yea.
[05:16] <insomnia> I can't install the kernel driver for my NIC
[05:16] <Pie-rate> how do i compile/install something so that i can remove it with apt-get remove?
[05:16] <harry> kitche:how do i enable that one?
[05:16] <Blinocac200sx> howdy all
[05:16] <insomnia> because ubuntu doesn't have the kernel headers, gcc, or make.
[05:16] <stonarmusic> hi
[05:16] <insomnia> can't download those
[05:16] <Blinocac200sx> Anybody use an Ipod with Ubuntu?
[05:16] <insomnia> unless I have a NIC
[05:16] <insomnia> catch-22
[05:16] <kitche> harry: you can download it manually then sudo dpkg -i <package.deb
[05:17] <insomnia> and what's up with this sudo everything stuff?
[05:17] <kitche> insomnia: what is your ethernet card chipset?
[05:17] <calamari> Blinocac200sx: yeah

[05:17] <administrator> hello
[05:17] <insomnia> kitche: Intel 100ve
[05:17] <ubotu> insomnia: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:17] <procyon> harry: google your errors
[05:17] <ddaemon> insomnia, use sudo -s to get to a root shell
[05:17] <procyon> harry: you'll get faster responses
[05:17] <insomnia> kitche: I'm a professional sysadmin with 16+ years experience.
[05:17] <Blinocac200sx> what file types can I use, and where do put them on the ipod
[05:17] <insomnia> I -think- I know how to not rm -rf /
[05:17] <Music_Shuffle> =p
[05:18] <Music_Shuffle> Blinocac200sx, I use an iPod with it too. :o
[05:18] <ddaemon> use sudo -s -H to change the Home variables to those of 'root'
[05:18] <kitche> insomnia: your point being doesn't mean that other people don't know but you can still use that comamdn with sudo :)
[05:18] <wyld> does anyone have a certain system monitor that they prefer, and would like to divulge the name of?
[05:18] <Falstius> insomnia: and you still don't know enough to not run around as root?
[05:18] <calamari> insomnia: then change your root password and be done with it heh
[05:18] <Blinocac200sx> good to know
[05:18] <insomnia> kitche: I just think it's kinda' silly to make a distro with that default setting.

[05:32] <Music_Shuffle> 6.10 ftw.
[05:32] <luke_> kitche:  i.e, if I run into compatability problems etc
[05:32] <HentaiSushi> 6.06
[05:32] <HentaiSushi> i cant get 6.10 to work
[05:32] <HentaiSushi> :(
[05:33] <wyld> silentdis: sounds admin-ish
[05:33] <Music_Shuffle> ...that's not a reason to pick 6.06 for someone ELSE! :P

[05:33] <HentaiSushi> i run windows
[05:33] <kitche> luke_: open up gconf and go to start up programs in it and put in beryl-manager and you should be good to go
[05:33] <JulieJulie> I have no experience in this but it looks interesting enough to try out.
[05:33] <HentaiSushi> wehre do i find that info at procyon
[05:33] <JulieJulie> I was taking programming in school but never went to school so this is when I have decided to start to use linux lol
[05:33] <SilentDis> wyld:  it is.  it just watches proc/mem usage.  not really a 'system monitor' for personal use though
[05:33] <JulieJulie> Smart eh?

[05:34] <Shocka311> Anybody? where I can go to download the right software to view downloadable files off internet?

[05:36] <procyon> scroll up
[05:36] <SilentDis> CokeNCode:  what error do you get?
[05:36] <kitche> luke_: gconfig-editor try that in a console
[05:36] <HentaiSushi> is it "cd /etc/X11" and then "cat xorg.conf"?
[05:36] <luke_> kitche: no luck
[05:36] <procyon> yes
[05:36] <HentaiSushi> ok thanks
[05:37] <HentaiSushi> brb then
[05:37] <CokeNCode> ok, i just removed that from my repositories
[05:37] <CokeNCode> let's see how this goes
[05:37] <kitche> luke_: which version of "ubuntu" did you install?
[05:37] <luke_> kitche:  6.10 64_32 Desktop
[05:37] <wyld> noob: are you still around?
[05:37] <w30> can anyone recommend a TV capture card for Ubuntu?
[05:37] <CokeNCode> should i close xchat and all other ope nprograms ?
[05:37] <CokeNCode> while upgrading ?
[05:38] <Shocka311> Cool, also when I go into the add/remove app window, are all of the upgrades and programs free and compatable with ubuntu?  I tried to install some listed and it said I needed a cd.
[05:38] <Music_Shuffle> Yes they are.
[05:38] <Music_Shuffle> You might need the install disk/LiveCD.
[05:38] <SilentDis> CokeNCode:  it's not a bad idea... but not necessary usually.  ubuntu will close everything when it's time to :)
[05:38] <n8of9_> need some grub/kernel advice
[05:39] <Shocka311> when I tried to dl them a box came up and said insert some cd
[05:39] <kitche> luke_: ok just do beryl-manager in terminal and see if it starts beryl up
[05:39] <wyld> how do i find out what version of xorg i have?
[05:39] <SilentDis> Shocka311:  you might need your ubuntu CD handy.  you can grab one from the homepage and burn it if you don't have one.  http://www.ubuntu.com/ :)
[05:39] <peirce141> I am having trouble with Samba, before I tryed to set it up so that I could share my files, I could access the other shared folders on my network with no problem, now I installed samba and shared my folder in the Systems->Administration->Shared Folders, I can't even see any of the other computers! Any help?
[05:39] <Music_Shuffle> Shocka311, do you not have the LiveCD?
[05:39] <Pie-rate> has anyone made the streamzap pc remote (http://streamzap.com) work with ubuntu?
[05:39] <kitche> wyld: X -version
[05:39] <wyld> thanks
[05:39] <CokeNCode> well just to be on the safe side
[05:39] <CokeNCode> g'night folks
[05:40] <luke_> kitche:  yup something started!
[05:40] <Shocka311> I don't have any cd.  I got this pc used and i don't have any software and I'm just learning how it all works
[05:40] <SilentDis> pie-rate:  http://www.kdegraaf.net/streamzap/
[05:40] <luke_> kitche: holy smokes eye candy galore!
[05:41] <Shocka311> I'm used to windows based pc's, but so far i like ubuntu alot
[05:41] <kitche> luke_: yeha that's how you can start it or use gconf and put beryl-manager in autostart programs
[05:41] <SilentDis> Shocka311:  welcome to a REAL operating system ;)
[05:41] <luke_> kitche: awesome... so it doesn't automatically try to start by default right?
[05:41] <cymuHep> why whec i set chmod to 777 it dont saves when i restart CPU??
[05:41] <n8of9_> i need to free space in /boot, but i'm not sure which kernels to remove
[05:41] <luke_> kitche:  I was worried it would, because I'm bound to run into some problems sooner or later
[05:41] <aSt3raL_> what repo can i get kde-config from?
[05:41] <kitche> luke_: no beryl is really meant to run with gnome/kde/xfce
[05:42] <cymuHep> why whec i set chmod to 777 it dont saves when i restart CPU??
[05:42] <Shocka311> I'm learning that real quick.  I have so many more options. I dig it
[05:42] <GreyGhost> I have a P4 thats a i686 right? and i installed i386 build of Ubuntu .... am i lising out on precious optimization?
[05:42] <luke_> kitche:  yeah I'm running gnome
[05:42] <gre1> greyghost: not really
[05:42] <SilentDis> n8of9_:  i'd say it's usually 'safe' to remove the oldest ones.  that's what I did *shrug*
[05:42] <GreyGhost>  gre1 ,nce to hear that thanks :) i dont want to dl 700  mbs again ....
[05:42] <SilentDis> GreyGhost:  Dapper or Edgy?
[05:42] <n8of9_> SilentDis: i would, but i'm not entirely sure that my sys would boot then...
[05:43] <kitche> GreyGhost: i686 is not really that far from i386 not much of a difference in those to archs really besides the SSE and such
[05:43] <SilentDis> n8of9_:  if you use the package manager, you'll be safe :)
[05:43] <GreyGhost> edgy
[05:43] <gre1> greyghost: so far as I know, ubuntu only ships 386 kernels these days
[05:43] <n8of9_> SilentDis: uname -a reports that i'm running 2.6.15-26, but all my grub files point to 15-23
[05:43] <luke_> kitche:  got a few errors...  says I'm missing 0x5b, as well as beryl: water: GL_ARB_fragment_program is missing
[05:43] <GreyGhost> oh .. k ... cos i thought i saw a 686 build too ....
[05:44] <w30> n8of9_, use synaptic to remove the old kernels, that way on the next reboot grub will be updated automatically also.
[05:44] <SilentDis> GreyGhost:  you're probably running -generic kernel, right?
[05:44] <kitche> luke_: the water plugin is not good doesn't work really and that 0x5b is just a warning
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> procyon
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> what exactly was i looking for?
[05:44] <procyon> device section
[05:44] <n8of9_> w30: can do... shouldn't synaptic do that when i upgrade, anyway?
[05:44] <GreyGhost> SilentDis ,yes
[05:44] <luke_> kitche:  awesome.  Thanks a ton for your help man.  I'm learning super fast but I'd be lost without you pro's
[05:44] <procyon> what driver was being used
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> damn
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> should have said that, but thanks though
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> brb
[05:44] <procyon> sorry
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> its ok, lol
[05:44] <peirce141> I'm having trouble with sharing my folders with my windows box, I installed Samba, and that seems to have only made it worse.
[05:44] <procyon> might try vi
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> im just really noobish
[05:44] <procyon> so you can scroll
[05:44] <HentaiSushi> vi?
[05:45] <HentaiSushi> whats vi
[05:45] <HentaiSushi> i konw how
[05:45] <Shocka311> Are these KDE programs compatable with ubuntu?
[05:45] <SilentDis> n8of9_:  hmm.... when I was running dapper, I removed my .23 kernel safely and just had the .26-k7 one installed.  left all the restricted modules, of course.
[05:45] <HentaiSushi> i just type |more at the end
[05:45] <procyon> ok
[05:45] <procyon> that works
[05:45] <HentaiSushi> i learned that from DOS :D
[05:45] <kitche> HentaiSushi: you don't want vi/vim if you don't really know that much about it
[05:45] <HentaiSushi> ok brb
[05:45] <procyon> w00t
[05:45] <Shocka311> they are the ones that won't dl with out a cd
[05:45] <procyon> yeah getting could be an issue =)
[05:46] <procyon> err getting out of vi
[05:46] <w30> n8of9_, I don't know, I haven't done an upgrade. I would think that upgrading would just leave the new Edgy kernel though.
[05:46] <kitche> Shocka311: they will download without the cd but it wants to grab them from the cd most likely
[05:46] <Pie-rate> SilentDis: /home/jschall/lirc-0.7.2/drivers/lirc_dev/lirc_dev.c: In function lirc_register_plugin:
[05:46] <Pie-rate> SilentDis: /home/jschall/lirc-0.7.2/drivers/lirc_dev/lirc_dev.c:386: warning: passing argument 2 of class_device_create makes pointer from integer without a cast
[05:46] <Pie-rate> same for arguments 3 4 and 5, didn't compile and besides, apt-get install lirc got 0.8.0 rather than 0.7.2
[05:46] <Pie-rate> except it refuses to configure properly..
[05:46] <aSt3raL_> anyone know where I can get kde-config?
[05:47] <SilentDis> pie-rate:  what are those from?
[05:47] <GreyGhost> ok ... so it seems it was just me dreaming bout 686....
[05:47] <Shocka311> how do I get them to download. every time I try it says insert cd and then there's something wrong with my system and it stopps
[05:47] <n8of9_> SilentDis: when i try to remove ancient kernels (i'm still carrying 2.6.12?), synaptic wants to take those restricted modules, too
[05:47] <Pie-rate> http://www.kdegraaf.net/streamzap/
[05:47] <Pie-rate> from make
[05:47] <gleesond> what do flag do I give the live disk to get it to not load X and dump me into a root shell?
[05:47] <kitche> Shocka311: you remove the cd from the repo options
[05:47] <Shocka311> what does that mean and how do I do it?
[05:48] <SilentDis> pie-rate:  I just found the howto on the web... i don't know more than that page says, sorry :(
[05:48] <kitche> Shocka311: what are front-end are you using synaptic aptitude?
[05:48] <cavalierwisk> can anyone tell me how the livecd autoconfigures the xorg file?
[05:48] <SilentDis> pie-rate:  you might need to download some modules for ubuntu, such as lirc_dev.  search for that package name in synaptic, and try again :)
[05:48] <Shocka311> is that that synaptic package manager?
[05:48] <mobius> what is usually found in /tmp?
[05:49] <gleesond> Shocka311: yes
[05:49] <Shocka311> yes i am
[05:49] <SilentDis> n8of9_:  I'd still say it's 'safe', and if anything doesn't go anymore, you should be able to force install back (as you'll have the .debs around till you autoclean)
[05:49] <navaburo> how does one enable vnc server over ssh on dapper?
[05:49] <mobius> can anyone tell me how large their /tmp is?
[05:49] <kitche> Shocka311: yeah you using that, go into the repo options then in there there should be a section that has Ubuntu cd check marked just uncheck it and refresh and you should be able to use the net for packages from now on
[05:49] <navaburo> the wiki says to use the gui
[05:49] <n8of9_> SilentDis: okay, i'll give it a shot, leaving 26 and 27
[05:50] <gleesond> mobius: temporary files saved by programs. many make files use it for temp builds files
[05:50] <navaburo> mobius, 2.4MB
[05:50] <SilentDis> n8of9_:  :)  you had that machine for a LONG time, didn't you.  lol
[05:50] <Pie-rate> silentdis: lirc-modules-source? there's no lirc-dev
[05:50] <mobius> gleesond: how large do you think it can get..
[05:50] <mobius> navaburo: thanks
[05:51] <Shocka311> K let me go try that real quick. I've been in there and I didn's see a cd one checked but let me look again
[05:51] <n8of9_> SilentDis: i guess so :) do you know of any way to find the initial install date?
[05:51] <navaburo> so anyone know how to get a vnc server up via ssh?
[05:51] <mobius> gleesond: what is /var (and /var/tmp) for that matter?
[05:51] <gleesond> mobius: not sure
[05:51] <w30> any one have any recommendations for a Ubuntu tv tuner card?
[05:51] <SilentDis> pie-rate:  I'd do a search for lirc-, and see what comes up.  from there, i'd install what sounds like a development library (probably not source), and go from there.
[05:52] <navaburo> w30, happage or something like that
[05:52] <HentaiSushi> T.T
[05:52] <SilentDis> w30:  from my understanding, most of the hauppauge cards work well.  I've been doing some research myself, but that's as far as I've gotten
[05:52] <HentaiSushi> you wanted me to find the graphics card setting, procyon?
[05:52] <navaburo> w30, hauppauge is the name of it
[05:52] <navaburo> check out their HD tuners... very nice indeed
[05:52] <procyon>  HentaiSushi: yeah which driver you wewre using
[05:52] <HentaiSushi> it said ati
[05:52] <Jerry|1> I'm having an odd problem... my XORG log says: ((II) I810(0): direct rendering: Enabled) however glxinfo says (direct rendering: No) any ideas?
[05:52] <HentaiSushi> for driver
[05:52] <SilentDis> brb, washer load off balance, and washer is dancing around the room rofl
[05:52] <HentaiSushi> what does that mean
[05:53] <w30> navaburo, any special model?
[05:53] <Shocka311> is it the one that says "cd disk with ubuntu 6.06"?
[05:53] <procyon> just ati generic?
[05:53] <HentaiSushi> cyea
[05:53] <Pie-rate> SilentDis: gnomeradio - FM-radio tuner for the GNOME desktop
[05:53] <Pie-rate> inputlirc - Zeroconf LIRC daemon using input event devices
[05:53] <Pie-rate> lirc-modules-source - Linux Infra-red Remote Control support (kernel modules)
[05:53] <Pie-rate> lirc-x - Linux Infra-red Remote Control support (X dependent parts)
[05:53] <procyon> cool
[05:53] <HentaiSushi> all it said was ati under driver
[05:53] <HentaiSushi> why?
[05:53] <navaburo> w30, any of their video4linux models
[05:53] <procyon> you need the drivers for your card
[05:53] <HentaiSushi> oh
[05:53] <HentaiSushi> you can help me??!?!!??! <3
[05:54] <SilentDis> that was impressive.  it made it halfway out from it's cubbyhole that time!  lmao
[05:54] <Shocka311> Kitche: is it the one that says "cd disk with ubuntu 6.06"?
[05:54] <navaburo> w30, http://www.hauppauge.com/pages/prods_hvr.html
[05:54] <n8of9_> w30: hoePAj
[05:54] <SilentDis> w30:  in a thick german accent, i believe.  rofl
[05:54] <navaburo> i would reccomend the ones with the MPEG encoders built in
[05:55] <navaburo> they save LOTS of cpu time
[05:55] <procyon> HentaiSushi: Since I dont have that card I would just end up searching for the driver myself. which you are capable of doing. I've seen threads in the ubuntu forums of people who have had the same issue
[05:55] <Pie-rate> SilentDis: any ideas?
[05:55] <n8of9_> anyone know a command to show the original install date of my system?
[05:55] <kitche> Shocka311: hmm yeah you on dapper?
[05:55] <HentaiSushi> ok, but how do i get the driver?
[05:55] <Shocka311> yep
[05:55] <HentaiSushi> do i download it on windows?
[05:55] <ddaemon> I'm signing up for launchpad and I'm trying to register my gpg keys.  Can someone explain how I use --send-keys to get my keys to a key server and where I can find the key-id?

[05:58] <HentaiSushi> i konw
[05:58] <procyon> apt-get
[05:58] <navaburo> n8of9_, that will show any files modified in november
[05:58] <Pie-rate> SilentDis: it looks like i need the lirc_streamzap kernel module
[05:58] <procyon> i just dont know the location
[05:58] <n8of9_> right...
[05:58] <HentaiSushi> damn
[05:58] <HentaiSushi> sorry guys

[05:59] <ddaemon> I'm signing up for launchpad and I'm trying to register my gpg keys.  Can someone explain how I use --send-keys to get my keys to a key server and where I can find the key-id?
[05:59] <sw33t> can i get help?
[05:59] <n8of9_> navaburo: i'm afraid i don't see where you're going with this...
[05:59] <navaburo> well it's strange that your root directory was modified 12 days ago
[05:59] <SilentDis> pie-rate:  it sounds like you'll have to build lirc yourself... ugh.  :(
[06:00] <Shocka311> kitche: what does all that mean? sorry, I have no idea what any of this means, I'm a beginner.
[06:00] <ozzloy> and how do i do a test console beep?
[06:00] <kitche> ddaemon: just do gpg --send-keys and it will send it to the server your public key it usualy uses the mit server by default and to get your key-id you can do gpg -list-keys or soemthing close tot hat man gpg will tell you more
[06:00] <n8of9_> sw33t: by Dualsystem, do you mean like linux/windows on the same box?
[06:00] <SilentDis> pie-rate:  check that page, and see if they have a 'support group' or something.  I don't know enough about that hardware to be of much more help :(
[06:00] <calamari> ozzloy: echo <Ctrl-G>
[06:00] <calamari> or just Ctrl-G
[06:00] <kitche> Shocka311: makes it so you don't need the cd for certain packages it will grab the packages off the package mirror
[06:00] <navaburo> try looking at files in /usr/sbin that should not have been modified since the system was installed
[06:00] <ddaemon> kitche, thanks
[06:00] <ddaemon> i will try that
[06:00] <SilentDis> grrr... stupid firefox.  brb all, i have to restart gdm
[06:00] <bimberi> ozzloy: try putting it in ~/.bashrc as part of the bit where it tests to see if it's an xterm running
[06:01] <peirce142> I'm having trouble with sharing my folders with my windows box, I installed Samba, and that seems to have only made it worse.
[06:01] <Shocka311> cool i'll try that, thanks
[06:02] <navaburo> n8of9_, on second thought don't listen to me, i have files in their from 05. apparently the dates are from the origional builds
[06:02] <n8of9_> navaburo: my thoughts exactly... clever idea, though
[06:02] <Pie-rate> SilentDis:  apt-get source lirc will get me 0.8.0 source code right?
[06:03] <DSG7777> This is a really odd issue, but I recently switched my icons to the OSX theme, and now all of a sudden when I get to the login screen, as soon as I type any character it crashes and says "The greeter has crashed, opening new greeter" or something similar, but that greeter crashes as soon as I type in a single character. anyone have any idea qhats going on? I cant even log on to change my settings around.

[06:22] <Jordan_U> TangBaBa: sudo apt-get install xfce4 or xubuntu-desktop
[06:22] <kkerwin> schmidtel: Wonderful!
[06:22] <kitche> mohlertm: hmm well not sure without a stream server really
[06:22] <schmidtel> and now?
[06:22] <TangBaBa> Thanks!
[06:22] <kkerwin> schmidtel: OK. Which webbrowser are you using?
[06:22] <schmidtel> the standart, Morzilla
[06:22] <Jordan_U> When I try to hybernate with even only a few applications open I get an error that I don't have enough memory to hybernate but I have 2 GIG of swap and ~ 50 GIG free on disk?
[06:22] <TangBaBa> Jordan- can I use Synaptic to get the xfce package?
[06:23] <kkerwin> schmidtel: Ok. Try starting mozilla, and try visiting a page that has java on it.
[06:23] <Jordan_U> TangBaBa: Yes.
[06:23] <TangBaBa> Excellent- thanks!
[06:23] <Synaptic> Yes TangBaBa  you can use me to get Xfce
[06:23] <schmidtel> yea, and it says: klick here to download java
[06:23] <Synaptic> yes use me baby, use me good
[06:23] <yairgo> whats the fstab line look like for mounting a ntfs file system, i have this, "/dev/sda1    /mnt/Windows   ntfs    rw, auto, user     0     0"
[06:23] <kkerwin> schmidtel: You should already have java installed. That's what we just did.
[06:23] <swejn_> schmidtel, type about:plugins ins your adressebar
[06:24] <swejn_> -s

[06:24] <n8of9> peirce142: ok, two things: 1> under Authentication, 'security = user' should be unchecked
[06:25] <schmidtel> now iam on winload.de
[06:25] <n8of9> peirce142: 2> you have no shares set up from your linux box, but you were just trying to see windows shares, right?
[06:25] <schmidtel> when i type "plugins"
[06:25] <swejn_> schmidtel, you might need to set a link in your plugins directory yourself but I don't think so
[06:25] <swejn_> schmidtel, "about:plugins"
[06:25] <peirce142> n8of9: so remove the ';' from the Security = user line?
[06:25] <schmidtel> ah sry
[06:25] <swejn_> schmidtel, just like I wrot
[06:25] <n8of9> peirce142: correct

[06:27] <kkerwin> swejn_: schmidtel: I have to check out. But it looks like you got it. Thanks again, swejn_.
[06:27] <kkerwin> swejn_: schmidtel: Sorry to cut and run and leave you two hanging.

[06:31] <Jordan_U> ozzloy: It's a built in iSight and it works perfectly, probably not the kind of info you wanted I am guessing :)
[06:32] <peirce142> frogzoo: from System->Network Servers->Windows Network from my Ubuntu box
[06:32] <peirce142> noob: you need root access to the machine, you enter the password for root at that prompt
[06:32] <mohlertm> jordan_u:  I am new to linux.  can you tell me what you mean my use "open Network"?
[06:32] <ozzloy> Jordan_U: hah, unfortunately not

[06:35] <noob> waaaaaaaaa dont know what to do next. huhhuhuhh
[06:35] <Jordan_U> mohlertm: Enter the path to the file you want to play.
[06:35] <frogzoo> peirce142: it's not all screwed up - it's just netbios name resolution now is happening locally
[06:35] <schmidtel> swejn, what now? :(
[06:35] <swejn_> schmidtel, start synaptic, you should see in the left corner at the top a button called I don't know what, press this button and search for Synaptic - Package Management or something like

[06:36] <swejn_> Synaptic, shut the fuck up :P
[06:36] <DigitalNinja> Jordan_U: I'm thinking the OS can be on the compact flash and the rest is on a drive. Maybe /home is software raid
[06:36] <Synaptic> no swearing in here swejn_ someone;s grandma could be watching
[06:36] <swejn_> schmidtel, have you found the entry?
[06:36] <schmidtel> sry i realy got ubuntu 30 mins ..

[06:36] <Jordan_U> DigitalNinja: This should probably work then: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[06:36] <schmidtel> dont know were i can open synapwhatever
[06:37] <Geoffrey2> hmmm, Firefox is telling me I need to install the Java Runtime Environment, but I already have Sun JRE 5 installed.....

[06:38] <frogzoo> peirce142: you could try smb4k
[06:38] <fr500_> !DCC
[06:38] <ubotu> There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[06:38] <peirce142> frogzoo: that's going to install all sorts of kdelibs right?
[06:38] <schmidtel> Thank u all

[06:38] <schmidtel> what now
[06:38] <peirce142> miniman: How'd you fix it?
[06:38] <JulieJulie> Hi, I just made an iso image of Ubuntu 6.10 but at the boot up its not running or is it running when I click on D:\
[06:38] <frogzoo> peirce142: yes most likely
[06:38] <DigitalNinja> Jordan_U: Thanks! It's not compact flash but it's a start
[06:39] <Rookie_> JulieJulie - should work as a bootCD
[06:39] <n8of9> how can i see what process is trying to use my cdrom? dmesg is pouring out end_request IO errors
[06:39] <frogzoo> n8of9: fuser -c /dev/cdrom
[06:39] <Jordan_U> DigitalNinja: I see no reason why it would be any different on any kind of USB drive other than the fact that the compact flash drive might not have an MBR by default, the wiki deals with that problem though.
[06:39] <ozzloy> Jordan_U: you got a macbook then?
[06:40] <swejn_> schmidtel, one moment please, I wonder how I explain that
[06:40] <Jordan_U> ozzloy: Yup, macbook pro
[06:40] <ozzloy> and ubuntu runs swell on that?
[06:40] <JulieJulie> Rookie_ - ive tried a few times
[06:40] <schmidtel> swejn, ok, but my Linux is german nothink found with Mangaemnt or stuff
[06:40] <miniman> peirce142, PM
[06:40] <JulieJulie> Rookie_ - any other sugestions on how I might be able to do that?
[06:40] <DigitalNinja> Jordan_U: I've got a compact flash to IDE connecter. It makes the compact flash look like an IDE drive.
[06:40] <Jordan_U> JulieJulie: You have your BIOS set to boot from CD?
[06:40] <n8of9> frogzoo: excellent! that one seems like it could come in handy frequently...
[06:40] <schmidtel> jemand deutsch?
[06:40] <Jerry|1> How can this GL error be fixed? (Can't open configuration file /etc/drirc: No such file or directory.) .. And is it really a big problem?

[06:41] <JulieJulie> Jordan_U - I did
[06:41] <miniman> k

[06:41] <JulieJulie> Rookie_ - maybe I'll try it again to make sure I suppose heh couldnt hurt.
[06:41] <Jordan_U> JulieJulie: What happens when you try? Does Windows just boot or do you see any Ubuntu screen at all?

[06:43] <kkerwin> schmidtel: note the # sign.
[06:44] <JulieJulie> Jordan_U - not to sound stupid or anything but I pretty much put the disk in and then went to Action and then burn image and clicked that one (ubuntu)
[06:44] <Jordan_U> mohlertm: Go to the "file" tab after you go to Open Network Stream, you can also browse to the file from there
[06:45] <Rookie_> JulieJulie - their are ppl who just burning the file and not as a image ;)

[06:50] <abattoir> hello, can someone tell me how i could make sure *no* icons are displayed on my desktop?
[06:50] <swejn_> Manse, maybe it's mounted, so you can't overwrite the filesystem. you should umount it first
[06:50] <ozzloy> fnord5: use rafb.net/paste instead and paste the resulting url in here
[06:50] <ozzloy> fnord5: if the paste is longer than 5 lines
[06:50] <Jordan_U> JulieJulie: That is what a checksum checks, I don't knwo how to do a chacksum in windows though.
[06:50] <fnord5> no i mean cut from the irc window
[06:50] <Manse> but i didn't mount the disk ,i have restart my system
[06:50] <miniman> CTRL + X = CUT
[06:51] <n8of9> Jordan_U: JulieJulie: there is a utility called md5sum.exe which generates a checksum in windows
[06:51] <cntm> Can someone tell me how can I set colors to what is appearing in the textbox under my name and also for my name in xchat?

[06:52] <ozzloy> fnord5: no problem.  in return do it for someone else
[06:52] <cntm> Is anyone using xchat?
[06:52] <Jordan_U> JulieJulie: No problem, also, you can always order pressed CD's @ shipit.ubuntu.com for free.
[06:52] <miniman> thejapa, Oh.
[06:52] <JulieJulie> heh wonderful thanks
[06:52] <JulieJulie> Have a good night everyone.
[06:52] <thejapa> Manse: please don't flood.
[06:52] <Jordan_U> miniman: There are OP's here
[06:52] <ozzloy> cntm: i'm not currently but i have in the past
[06:53] <abattoir> miniman: there are people, they take up operator privileges only when needed
[06:53] <miniman> oh
[06:53] <Manse> i'm sorry
[06:53] <cntm> If you know about xchat, can you  tell me how can I set colors to what is appearing in the textbox under my name and also for my name ?
[06:53] <n8of9> cntm: in the prefs window, select the parts which you want to change colors; check the "use text box colors" box
[06:53] <thejapa> Manse: what is the output of mount | grep hdb1
[06:53] <thejapa> Manse: if it returns nothing, hdb1 is not mounted
[06:53] <swejn_> Manse, okay, you better type in what thejapa says
[06:54] <ozzloy> cntm: hold on, i've seen color settings before, but it'll take me a minute to find
[06:54] <Manse> yes ,nothing
[06:54] <swejn_> Manse, it's less to copy ;D
[06:54] <cntm> n8of9: I don't see any such option
[06:54] <frogzoo> miniman: you fix it by adding domain master = Yes, local master = yes, preferred master = yes, os level = 35    ?
[06:54] <Jordan_U> When I try to hybernate with even only a few applications open I get an error that I don't have enough memory to hybernate but I have 2+ GIG of swap and ~ 50 GIG free on disk?
[06:54] <swejn_> Manse, okay, are you sure that your disk was correctly plugged? What says "dmesg" ?
[06:54] <Pie-rate> can't get dvd playback working, here's VLC's output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38193/
[06:54] <miniman> frogzoo: PM me
[06:54] <n8of9> Settings>Preferences>Interface>Input box>Use the Text box fonts and colors
[06:54] <n8of9> same for User list
[06:55] <shiver> how do you launch the nvidia control application
[06:55] <swejn_> Manse, ah, don't copy it!
[06:55] <ozzloy> cntm: apparently i don't have xchat installed.  are you getting help already from someone else?
[06:55] <thejapa> Manse: and what happens if you enter sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb| grep hdb1
[06:55] <cntm> no help so far
[06:55] <n8of9> cntm: Settings>Preferences>Interface>Input box>Use the Text box fonts and colors
[06:55] <Toma-> how could i start a vnc session with tightvncserver as another user?
[06:55] <Manse> at the end of the dmesg it said [  573.781386]   hdb: hdb1
[06:55] <n8of9> cntm: same for User list
[06:56] <cntm> oh ok
[06:56] <ozzloy> cntm: it's helpful if you type a name first
[06:56] <shiver> if i have nvidia beta drivers installed, how do i launch the config program?
[06:56] <dudearamadamadin> what can I install to be able to play avi and wmv files?
[06:56] <yakumo> hello anyone familiar with the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:56] <wweasel> !restrictedformats
[06:56] <Manse> it said /dev/hdb1   *           1         526     4225063+  83  Linux
[06:56] <Manse>  but o don't know the meaning
[06:57] <ozzloy> cntm: like this, so it hilights.  i just installed xchat, settings -> preferences -> colors (under interface)
[06:57] <trinkolade> Manse, re, I got kicked. could you put the output of dmesg to paste.ubuntu-nl.org?
[06:57] <cntm> It says "Use the Text box fonts and colors"
[06:57] <thejapa> Manse: it means you partitioned the disk and you mounted it, prolly via hal, so it doesn't show in mount
[06:57] <cntm> but I don't see colors under textbox settings
[06:58] <thejapa> Manse: you should be able to run sudo umount /dev/hdb1
[06:58] <dudearamadamadin> !kd;
[06:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kd; - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:58] <cntm> I see only tint settings, which I have already set to blue which is not appearing
[06:58] <wweasel> I have a question: I have just been using QEMU to toy around, but I would like to mount the hard disk, called "example.img", within Ubuntu. How would I mount this?
[06:58] <n8of9> cntm: the Colors page changes the text box colors
[06:58] <thejapa> Manse: if running umount gives an error, please tell us.
[06:59] <fnord5> ozzloy: fnord@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t iso9660 /home/fnord/iso.iso /media/ISO/
[06:59] <fnord5> mount: /home/fnord/iso.iso is not a block device (maybe try `-o loop'?)
[06:59] <Manse> ok,it said umount: /dev/hdb1 not mounted
[06:59] <cntm> But which code I have to set to blue for the user and for the text? There are numbers from 0 to 31.
[06:59] <yakumo> i try changing the 'nv' to 'nvidia' in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but every time i restart my computer an error mssg appear that my xorg is not configure correctly..
[06:59] <Zafod> Hi! I have device eth0 shown on startup, but have'n present in ifconfig and /dev why can be such a problem?
[06:59] <Pie-rate> VLC won't play DVDs
[07:00] <fnord5> xorg -reconfigure? maybe?i dont rember the comand
[07:00] <thejapa> Manse: well, when did you partition the drive?
[07:00] <Pie-rate> I got this working on my laptop, but VLC is giving me an error that i vaguely remember fixing, mplayer works
[07:00] <Jordan_U> !dvd | Pie-rate
[07:00] <ubotu> Pie-rate: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[07:01] <ozzloy> fnord5: i'm not up on my mnt options, don't do it often.  i could look, but i don't know if i'll be helpful
[07:01] <Pie-rate> jordan_u: thanks, but ubotu needs to die in a fire. i already know about that, having been linked to it at least twice (once due to me whispering it to ubotu)
[07:01] <n8of9> cntm: the 0-31 are available colors for text. don't worry too much about them for now. you're probably most interested in Foreground and Background
[07:01] <Pie-rate> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38193/ is VLC's output
[07:01] <fnord5> if you want to,then sure
[07:01] <Jordan_U> Pie-rate: xine or totem-xine should play it if you have libdvdcss installed, don't know about VLC though.
[07:01] <cntm> I have set both of them to blue but you can see my text color and user name are in gray
[07:02] <n8of9> cntm: usernames can be colored by checking the 'Colored nicknames' box under Text box settings
[07:02] <thejapa> Manse: you should be able to sudo mkfs -t ext2 /dev/hdb1, unless you just partitioned the drive and you didn't reboot.
[07:02] <cntm> oh my user name changed to blue
[07:02] <Pie-rate> Jordan_U I got VLC working on my laptop.
[07:02] <cntm> Now I have to see how to change text color
[07:02] <Pie-rate> Jordan_U I like VLC more than the others due to ease of use and flexibility
[07:02] <n8of9> cntm: you can play with the 0-31 colors to get things just the way you want.. i don't recall which number does what, but a little playing will tell you
[07:02] <ozzloy> fnord5: i don't have an iso, so i can't check right now, but try: mount -o loop -t iso...
[07:04] <peirce142> I need some help with Samba, I can't get access to any of my windows shares
[07:04] <asusathlon> hi anyone on?
[07:04] <Jordan_U> Pie-rate: AFIK VLC should use libdvdcss if you have it installed, How did you install it?
[07:04] <cntm> I am just doing that But there is no color which maps to the color that is being displayed in the text box for my messages. So wondering which color is to be changed..
[07:04] <billybong> anybody here use the "S3 Savage 2k" or "S3 UniChrome 2D/3D" video card in X ?
[07:05] <n8of9> cntm: looks like 14 and/or 30 affect how your text appears to you (doesn't change how it looks to others)
[07:05] <Pie-rate> Jordan_U: I just figured out it works without menus. It's a problem with libdvdnav
[07:05] <MSTK> hi all
[07:05] <MSTK> does anyone know of another good browser for linux besides FF?
[07:06] <Jordan_U>  MSTK: konqueror is good.
[07:06] <n8of9> MSTK: konqueror is the first one that comes to mind
[07:06] <cntm> n8of9: ok, I have changed the colors 14 and 30 to blue
[07:06] <MSTK> ah, thanks
[07:06] <n8of9> <-- slow
[07:06] <asusathlon> does anyone know where i can view the log to help me figure out whats stalling my xdvdshrink?
[07:06] <MSTK> I imported all of my extensions from my Windows FF into my Linux and realized that maybe they don't all work.
[07:06] <cntm> Great. Now it is coming in blue. Thanks a lot n8of9!!
[07:06] <fnord5> ozzloy: i got it:fnord@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t iso9660 /home/fnord/iso.iso /media/ISO/ -o loop
[07:06] <MSTK> I think it's like one in a hundred that's causing the few problems
[07:06] <MSTK> but I don't want to individually disable and enable each oen to find out
[07:07] <n8of9> cntm: no problem :)
[07:07] <billybong> anybody?
[07:07] <cntm> n8of9: Are you able to see my text color and my user name in blue?
[07:07] <ironfroggy_LT> is there anything i can use to convert postscript to html?
[07:07] <un_operateur> MSTK, if you are on firefox 2.0 it ought to tell you which ones are compatible and which arent
[07:07] <peirce142> I need some help with Samba, I can't get access to any of my windows shares
[07:07] <ironfroggy_LT> (i want to use Lyx to write my blog entries)
[07:07] <n8of9> cntm: no. those color settings will only affect how you view text
[07:08] <n8of9> cntm: you show up green for me unless you type my name.. then you show up red
[07:08] <frogzoo> MSTK: tools -> addons -> extensions - look for disabled
[07:08] <cntm> n8of9: Then how come I could see your messages and user name in red color?
[07:09] <MSTK> frogzoo - they all work.  just one or two of them cause some problems with flash playback.  I have no idea which ones, so I'm just going to leave it alone
[07:09] <cntm> n8of9: oh ok
[07:09] <frogzoo> peirce142: works for me like this in smb.conf: domain master = Yes, local master = yes, preferred master = yes, os level = 35
[07:09] <fnord5> when you make a bootable cd what files tells the coputer it bootable?
[07:09] <trinkolade> thejapa, does it work?
[07:09] <n8of9> cntm: now i'm hilighted...
[07:09] <n8of9> now i'm not
[07:09] <frogzoo> peirce142: got those from here: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/ref-guide/s1-samba-network-browsing.html
[07:09] <thejapa> trinkolade: it what?
[07:10] <frogzoo> peirce142: that relies on smb becoming master browser, as long as you're ok with that
[07:10] <un_operateur> ironfroggy_LT, does it have to be HTML ?? not text?
[07:10] <ironfroggy_LT> well i would like some formatting
[07:10] <peirce142> frogzoo: what exactly does that mean?
[07:10] <ozzloy> fnord5: mount -o loop -t iso9660 filename.iso /mnt/iso
[07:10] <asusathlon> can someone please tell me where i can find the log to figure out why my xdvdshrink is quitting unexpectedly?
[07:11] <frogzoo> peirce142: just put those master settings in smb.conf & restart
[07:11] <cntm> n8of9: Oh ok. highlighting means typeing the nick name before the message?
[07:11] <fnord5> thanks ozzloy
[07:11] <peirce142> frogzoo: no, i meant what exactly is a "master browseR"
[07:11] <un_operateur> asusathlon, have you tried invoking it from the command line?
[07:11] <buzzed> Failed to fetch http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/dists/breezy/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found
[07:11] <frogzoo> asusathlon: run it from a terminal? and if that fails, try strace
[07:11] <n8of9> or anywhere in the line, cntm
[07:11] <ozzloy> fnord5: hope that's enough.  i can explain it a little if necessary
[07:11] <frogzoo> peirce142: it's complicated, but google knows
[07:11] <trinkolade> thejapa, Mansa's problem with its partition or whatever. I couldn't follow
[07:11] <thejapa> trinkolade: ah, had to scroll a bit. I don't know, manse went silent.
[07:11] <un_operateur> peirce142, a master browser is a single computer on a network that takes care of names and resources
[07:11] <asusathlon> un_operator i am a newb and dont think i will be able to do it
[07:12] <trinkolade> thejapa, mhmm...k
[07:12] <Manse> sorry ,i went to toilet
[07:12] <un_operateur> asusathlon, -- at a terminal -- xdvd<TAB>
[07:12] <asusathlon> ok thnks ill try it
[07:12] <mohlertm> Anyone: how can i get my network folder (on my xp machine) to show up when I browse for a file on my Edgy machine?
[07:12] <un_operateur> asusathlon, <TAB> means press the TAB key eh -- not type it all out like that :)
[07:13] <yakumo> xorg errors help
[07:13] <joshuajtl> anyone happen to get google earth to run?? I get Google Earth has caught signal 11.
[07:13] <cntm> fine n8of9. I still have one last doubt. The nickname in the left pane has different colors for different users. Are they set by the users or done automatically by the IRC server?
[07:13] <derek_> Hi
[07:13] <derek_> Is ver. 6.10 Edgy?
[07:13] <n8of9> anyone know, off hand, the command to copy files while preserving attributes and dates?
[07:13] <bimberi> derek_: yes
[07:13] <un_operateur> mohlertm, thats like saying -- how do i look for people in shanhai when i do a search for people in new york :)
[07:13] <frogzoo> derek_: no, it's quite stable
[07:13] <n8of9> cntm: that's actually done by your client.
[07:13] <Musashi> wtf
[07:13] <buzzed> trying to upgrade to 6.10 but get error "Failed to fetch http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/dists/breezy/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found"
[07:14] <Musashi> I GOT IT TO WORK!!!!
[07:14] <RememberPOL> Is there a way to check which packages depend on a package?
[07:14] <bimberi> n8of9: cp -a
[07:14] <un_operateur> buzzed, it means the server is no longer available
[07:14] <asusathlon> un _operateur: it makes no difference and no additional text shows in the terminal
[07:14] <kerwonz> how can i enable the 3d image for a intel video card? i compiled the kernel by hand.
[07:14] <un_operateur> asusathlon, you might find some info in -- gnome-system-log
[07:14] <cntm> n8of9: Cool. Thanks a lot for all the info provided and clearing my doubts !!!
[07:14] <HentaiSushi> ok, i need help
[07:14] <asusathlon> thanks ill check that
[07:15] <n8of9> bimberi: thx; didn't know if that would save dates, too :)
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> i just installed ubuntu 6.10
[07:15] <n8of9> cntm: anytime
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> how do i set up a new user?
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> im still "oem"
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> ?
[07:15] <un_operateur> HentaiSushi, eh? explain
[07:15] <mohlertm> Un_operateur: Let me explain that a little better.  What i mean is, in a windows environment when you got to open a file it will display network places so you can get the file off of another drive on a computer on the network.  How do i do the same thing in Edgy?
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> i just installed ubuntu
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> and the default account it made me use was "oem"
[07:15] <frogzoo> HentaiSushi: 'sudo adduser HentaiSushi'
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> i want to change my user name to something else
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> er
[07:16] <HentaiSushi> i dont want hentaisushi
[07:16] <HentaiSushi> but thanks
[07:16] <bimberi> RememberPOL: apt-cache rdepends package
[07:16] <HentaiSushi> how do i configure it like root privalages and such
[07:16] <buzzed> how do i remove those servers?
[07:16] <Geoffrey2> is there an application I can use to edit what appears in the Places menu, or is there a text file I can modify for that?
[07:16] <RememberPOL> ty
[07:16] <frogzoo> HentaiSushi: chgrp, or add the groups as an adduser option
[07:16] <Manse> thejapa?
[07:16] <thejapa> Manse: yes
[07:16] <un_operateur> mohlertm, err -- you can add a bookmark -- and then enable the side-pane from view -- that'll give you an explorer-kinda look
[07:17] <frogzoo> HentaiSushi: actually, chgrp won't do it
[07:17] <Manse> my system still can't format the disk
[07:17] <peirce142> frogzoo: well, after doing that I still don't see anything in Windows Network
[07:17] <btiffin> mohlertm: look into samba
[07:17] <thejapa> Manse: you didn't reply my last questions.
 Manse: well, when did you partition the drive?
[07:17] <frogzoo> peirce142: open smb://WORKGROUP
 Manse: you should be able to sudo mkfs -t ext2 /dev/hdb1, unless you just partitioned the drive and you didn't reboot.
[07:18] <peirce142> frogzoo: getting an error, The folder contents could not be displayed
[07:18] <frogzoo> peirce142: wait for the icon to change from a file to a server
[07:18] <HentaiSushi> ok
[07:18] <HentaiSushi> whats user ID?
[07:18] <HentaiSushi> can i make mine 1337?
[07:18] <Casan> how do I get sane in ubuntu to recognize and utilize my network scanner in a hp officejet d155 multi-function-device, if at all possible(works fine with printing).
[07:18] <Manse> i have use cfdisk  partitioned the disk,it need reboot?
[07:19] <peirce142> frogzoo: which icon?
[07:19] <thejapa> Manse: you didn't reboot since you partitioned it?
[07:19] <frogzoo> peirce142: try opening it again
[07:19] <n8of9> well, it's been fun. i'm going to start the upgrade to edgy and walk away from my compy
[07:19] <HentaiSushi> lol
[07:19] <HentaiSushi> it takes that long?
[07:19] <n8of9> peirce142: good luck. sorry i couldn't be of more help
[07:19] <peirce142> frogzoo: still the same error
[07:20] <peirce142> thanks n8of9
[07:20] <thejapa> Manse, please use thejapa in your reply so my irc client highlights your reply for me.
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> wtf
[07:20] <n8of9> HentaiSushi: it'll take a while and it's past my bedtime :P
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> oh
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> mine didnt take that long
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> and i just installed it
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> :/
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> now that i have your attention, what is user ID?
[07:20] <n8of9> HentaiSushi: mine might not take long, then, either... we'll see :)
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> hello?
[07:20] <HentaiSushi> :(
[07:20] <mohlertm> un_operateur: if i do the bookmark thing, will it allow me to access the file in the "open file" view of the VLC player?
[07:21] <frogzoo> peirce142: are all your puters set to the same 'WORKGROUP'
[07:21] <peirce142> yep
[07:21] <n8of9> HentaiSushi: in what context?
[07:21] <Manse> thejapa,i partitioned it and reboot my system ,and find it didn't word ,then i partitioned it the second time
[07:21] <HentaiSushi> im making a new user
[07:21] <HentaiSushi> it asks for a user id
[07:21] <HentaiSushi> default was 1000
[07:21] <un_operateur> mohlertm, errm, if you want that kinda of functionality -- you will need to mount the network folder in /mnt or something
[07:21] <thejapa> Manse: but after you partitioned if last, did you reboot?
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> would it matter if i made mine 1337 >.>?
[07:22] <joshuajtl> anyone... google earth?
[07:22] <n8of9> HentaiSushi: typically, you should just leave that alone to avoid potential conflicts
[07:22] <buzzed> what repositories do i use for updating to ?6.10
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> i wanna make it 1337
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> :D
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> there wont be conflicts
[07:22] <n8of9> HentaiSushi: but if you're the only one on the system, that shouldn't really cause problems (as long as you stay away from reserved IDs)
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> ill be the only user on here
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> lol
[07:22] <n8of9> HentaiSushi: knock yourself out, then
[07:22] <Manse> thejapa,Gparted also can't work,no,after the last partitioned i havn't reboot
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> WTF
[07:22] <HentaiSushi> HOW DID HE DO THAT
[07:22] <thejapa> HentaiSushi: stop swearing please.
[07:23] <HentaiSushi> er
[07:23] <HentaiSushi> what
[07:23] <HentaiSushi> how did that guy make upside down text
[07:23] <asusathlon> un-operateur: do you think i need to change my dvd drive to scsi instead of ide cdrom for xdvdshrink?
[07:23] <Jordan_U> buzzed: Just run: sudo update-manager -c
[07:23] <buzzed> ok
[07:23] <thejapa> Manse: after you repartition the drive you must reboot, else it won't recognize the partitions.
[07:23] <un_operateur> mohlertm, example -- sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=tridge,password=foobar //server/share /mnt/server
[07:23] <linuxgoober> can someone please help me with xorg.conf

[07:24] <Jordan_U> HentaiSushi: Google "unicode"
[07:24] <un_operateur> asusathlon, it should work regardless
[07:24] <Manse> thejapa:ok,i will reboot now ,see you later
[07:24] <thejapa> Manse: i'll be here for some 30 minutes yet.
[07:24] <Madpilot> HentaiSushi, some unicode trick
[07:24] <un_operateur> asusathlon, what you could try doing is reinstalling xdvdshrink
[07:24] <peirce142> frogzoo: that's what i had been doing
[07:25] <n8of9> k, i'm hitting the Upgrade button now and going to bed... see you folks on the other side
[07:25] <asusathlon> un operateur use the same .deb package that i aliened or make a new one?
[07:25] <un_operateur> asusathlon, ahh, you aliened -- thats the problem
[07:25] <un_operateur> asusathlon, please compile it from source to make sure its stable
[07:26] <asusathlon> un_operateur i believe that is beyond my capability
[07:26] <miniman> peirce142, frogzoo, to access my shares I've just been opening the internal IP of the computer.. ex: 192.168.1.100
[07:26] <ozzloy> when i put in a music cd, an application pops up that can rip to disk.  how do i script that so it automatically rips to ogg and flac and then pops out the cd and doesn't prompt or anything?
[07:26] <un_operateur> asusathlon,  its quite easy if you just give it a go -- its definitely not rocket science :)
[07:27] <frogzoo> peirce142: 'smbclient -l //ubunt_server_name'    shows the server as master browser?
[07:27] <ozzloy> like instead of popping up the ripping app, it runs a script
[07:27] <un_operateur> asusathlon, download the source package -- i'll guide you through it
[07:27] <noob> anybody: i cant mount the shared dir of the Windows OS, can somebody help me?
[07:27] <frogzoo> oh miniman has a good point - pierce, add entries for your doze pcs in /etc/hosts
[07:27] <asusathlon> un operateur ok hold on
[07:28] <peirce142> frogzoo: that command doesn't output anything
[07:28] <frogzoo> peirce142: ps aux |grep smb  ; ps aux |grep nmb
[07:29] <max_> anyone use project looking glass?
[07:29] <rajshekhar> good mornig
[07:29] <noob> anybody: i cant mount the shared dir of the Windows OS, can somebody help me?
[07:29] <peirce142> frogzoo: nmbd and smbd are both running
[07:29] <miniman> frogzoo, peirce142: if you go to places > connect to server, then select windows network, then type the internal IP, it will automatically mount it to your desktop :)
[07:31] <asusathlon> un_operateur, can i pm you?
[07:31] <rajshekhar> i open emacs in terminal "Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
[07:31] <rajshekhar> this message appear
[07:31] <un_operateur> asusathlon, you may -- but I prefer if we do it here -- that way other people can interact, help, learn, etc
[07:31] <jay_> [Help] I am trying to build emacs21.3, after "./configure, make, make install", everything is OK, but when i start to launch emacs, it tells: emacs: Cannlt open termcap database file. What is wrong?
[07:32] <asusathlon> un_operateur, ok i downloaded and extracted the src
[07:32] <peirce142> miniman: I'm getting the same error as when i try to navigate to Workgroup, the folder contents cannot be displayed
[07:32] <un_operateur> jay_,  you might be missing a few dependencies, at a terminal -- sudo apt-get build-dep emacs emacs21
[07:32] <mohlertm> un_operateur: So if the following it the network drive i want to access "smb://gaming" how would I bookmark that like you said??
[07:33] <Olodumare> Hello all!  I need some assistance with some device driver issues.
[07:33] <un_operateur> asusathlon, are you at a command line?
[07:33] <asusathlon> yes
[07:33] <PORDO> what do i need to make rhythmbox play vorbis?
[07:33] <PORDO> right now it only plays flac :(
[07:33] <un_operateur> mohlertm, just a sec

[07:34] <infer> !fluxbox
[07:34] <ubotu> fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox
[07:34] <miniman> peirce142: Do this: Places -> Connect to Server..Select "windows share"..For "Server:" put the internal IP of the machine you want to access(eg: 192.168.1.100)..Click connect...If its valid, it will create the mount on your desktop
[07:34] <un_operateur> asusathlon, just before we go anywhere- - just looked at the xdvdshrink page on sourceforce -- it seems to me that the package is only available for mandrake
[07:34] <un_operateur> asusathlon, can you confirm for me the name of the file you downloaded
[07:35] <peirce142> miniman: it creates the mount on my desktop, but nautilus can't show me the files for some reason, gives me cannot display the contents of this folder
[07:35] <asusathlon> un operateur dvdshrink-2.6.1-8mdk.src.rpm
[07:35] <jroes> is there any way to prevent the ubuntu livecd from mounting the linux-swap partition on my hard drive?
[07:35] <miniman> peirce142; Hm thats weird.. You might not have it setup correctly on the windows machine.
[07:35] <un_operateur> mohlertm,  ok, navigate to the share you want bookmarked -- and then just add one -- quite simple really :)
[07:36] <peirce142> miniman: it worked perfectly before i installed samba to try to share the linux box
[07:36] <ozzloy> bbiaf
[07:36] <peirce142> miniman: before tonight, i could access my windows share
[07:36] <miniman> Hmm.
[07:36] <un_operateur> asusathlon, yea, thats a mandrake package -- :(  can i suggest you use dvd::rip -- it's quite popular and works
[07:36] <miniman> peirce142: then you installed samba, andit messed it up?
[07:37] <peirce142> yep
[07:37] <miniman> Can you rafb.net/paste your smb.conf file?
[07:37] <asusathlon> un_operateur, ill give it atry but the last time i tried it their gui was very complex
[07:38] <peirce142> miniman: before frogzoo's suggestions: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38192/, after: http://rafb.net/paste/results/K1RlvL29.html
[07:38] <un_operateur> asusathlon, dont let it put you off -- once you figure out how to do it once or twice, it'll be as easy as cake the next times around
[07:39] <frogzoo> peirce142: hey, all care but no responsibility :)
[07:39] <peirce142> frogzoo: not blaming you at all, just showing him both
[07:39] <asusathlon> un_operateur, thanks ill install it and play with it for a bit
[07:40] <miniman> peirce142: Here I will post mine, you can see the differences
[07:40] <kintaro0e> hey guys..i have a new digital camera from kodak...i want to get the from it..using usb to firewire....what application that i need to install to upload those files in my computer?
[07:40] <un_operateur> peirce142, have you tried --  smbclient -U <username> -L localhost ?
[07:41] <un_operateur> peirce142,   smbclient -U <username> -L <machinename>   even
[07:41] <peirce142> un_operateur: im getting a login error
[07:41] <frogzoo> peirce142: try adding "restrict anonymous = 0" under [global] 
[07:41] <peirce142> un_operateur: do i have to set up a user?
[07:42] <buzzed> Fetching and installing the upgrades
[07:42] <un_operateur> peirce142, errm, not normally no, you can use your own user credentials
[07:42] <miniman> peirce142: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38194/
[07:42] <peirce142> un_operateur: well, it didn't take my password
[07:43] <un_operateur> peirce142, did it list any shares or other information?
[07:43] <peirce142> un_operateur: it gave me a login error
[07:43] <mohlertm> un_operateur:  I have saved "smb://gaming" as a bookmark but it doesn't show up under places when I click browse from the file open menu in VLC player?  How do I access the file through browse in the VLC player?
[07:44] <andrej> Guys, how do I get a module from the binary nivida (installed from the nvidia package, not the ubuntu one) to "stick"?  Every boot I have to manually insmod the bloody thing
[07:44] <andrej> And what happened to inittab in edgy?
[07:44] <un_operateur> mohlertm, I already said -- the bookmarks you use in nautilus are for nautilus only -- if you want a shared location to be used by all programs you need to mount the network location in a folder
[07:44] <un_operateur> andrej, edgy uses upstart now -- not init
[07:45] <andrej> Thanks un_operateur ... what's the rationale behind that?
[07:45] <mohlertm> un_operateur:  Okay, sorry i wasn't more clear with what I wanted to do.  THat is exactly what I wanted to do.  So, can you tell me how I can mount "smb://gaming" in a folder to be accessed by all programs?
[07:46] <un_operateur> mohlertm, at a terminal -- smbmount --help :)
[07:46] <LineOf7s> Wow - I think I just turned up in the middle of the exact same enquiry I wanted to make.
[07:46] <un_operateur> peirce142, maybe this -- smbclient //server/share -Uname%machinename
[07:47] <un_operateur> andrej, you know -- the usual linux thing, no ones entirely too happy with whats there -- gotta "improve" it :)
[07:48] <un_operateur> andrej, its supposedly faster and definitely more sophisticated -- i'm choosing to stick with init tho -- because upstart would break quite a few things on my machine
[07:48] <peirce142> un_operateur: what should i put in for //server/share?
[07:48] <jpjacobs> andrej,  add it in /etc/modules
[07:48] <un_operateur> peirce142, //localhost/peirce141  if i read your smb.conf right
[07:49] <Olodumare> un_operateur: Can I bend your ear for a bit?
[07:49] <frogzoo> peirce142: sudo smbpasswd peirce142
[07:49] <un_operateur> peirce142, or //$HOSTNAME/peirce141
[07:49] <mohlertm> un_operateur: so type "smbmount/help" into a terminal?  Sorry un_operateur I am very new to linux, so I have to be clear?
[07:49] <un_operateur> Olodumare, I've never come across that idiom before -- as long as it's a good thing, sure :)
[07:50] <un_operateur> mohlertm, smbmount --help   -- not smbmount /help -- this is linux not windows :)
[07:50] <peirce142> frogzoo: there we go, now that got to list the Workgroup
[07:50] <fnord5> !bots
[07:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bots - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:51] <Olodumare> un_operateur: I don't know if it's a good thing!  I'm having some issues with a palm.  When connected and trying to hotsync, it never has the decency to show up in /dev/
[07:51] <fnord5> @chuck
[07:51] <frogzoo> peirce142: fingers crossed, should be all good now
[07:51] <un_operateur> Olodumare, hmm, I dont own a palm, and i dont know how it works on linux -- can i suggest you get a hold of the documentation for the package, device
[07:52] <sarahg> wow lots of people
[07:52] <frogzoo> peirce142: if you can't browse the pcs, you'll need to create the guest account on xp
[07:52] <peirce142> alright frogzoo, thanks a bunch
[07:52] <sail> j #javascript
[07:52] <sarahg> Can anyone recommend laptops to shortlist / avoid for running ubuntu?
[07:53] <sarahg> (I'm probably buying a laptop soon)
[07:54] <frogzoo> peirce142: no worries
[07:54] <derek_> where's the md5sum check for the desktop 6.10 iso?
[07:55] <Si1> Is there a c++ IDE I can get for ubuntu?
[07:55] <un_operateur> Sil, anjuta
[07:55] <mypapit> SilenceGold: anjuta
[07:55] <mypapit> SilenceGold: anjuta
[07:55] <Si1> thanks
[07:55] <un_operateur> derek_,  do you mean the md5 has itself or the utility to check the hash against iso?
[07:55] <sarahg> Si1: There's also kdevelop, but last I checked (a number of years ago) it was fiddly to get working.
[07:55] <derek_> un_operateur: md5 itself
[07:56] <un_operateur> derek_, it's where you downloaded the iso from :)
[07:56] <Hellevator> Anjuta, has the slowest development cycle I have ever seen.  It them a year to go from 2.0.1 to 2.0.2 :-p
[07:56] <derek_> it's not there un_operateur
[07:56] <derek_> only the ISO
[07:57] <un_operateur> Hellevator, debian has a slow cycle too, as does perl and many other great projects -- its no reflection on the quality of the project
[07:57] <Si1> Um... I'm new to Linux.  How exactly do I install Anjuta?
[07:57] <un_operateur> derek_, whats the exact name of the file you downloaded?
[07:57] <un_operateur> Sil,  at a terminal -- sudo aptitude install anjuta
[07:58] <sarahg> There's also a graphical installer which might be easier. Synaptic Package Manager
[07:58] <sarahg> That's in one of the adminy sounding menus
[07:58] <miniman> How is ubuntu supposed to be pronounced?
[07:58] <ryan444> hi everyone.
[07:58] <jmiller565> hello
[07:58] <un_operateur> oo-boon-too
[07:58] <ryan444> i was wondering if someone could help me out for a quick minute.
[07:59] <ryan444> it involves getting my .iso file running.
[07:59] <Si1> so it's installing everything I need?  Just from typing install anjuta?
[07:59] <bradley_> i tried to make vlc the default app for opening movies but i get this warning: 'Could not add application to the application database' how do i fix this?
[07:59] <jmiller565> imgburn works
[07:59] <un_operateur> Sil, hopefully yes
[07:59] <Si1> that's simple
[07:59] <andrej> jpjacobs - I did.  No show.  I added the insmod line to rc.local as well
[07:59] <Hellevator> Sil, you'll probably need build-essential
[07:59] <Si1> what?
[07:59] <andrej> Still no show
[08:00] <jmiller565> for the .iso file use ImgBurn, Ryan444
[08:00] <un_operateur> Hellevator, he isnt building anything from source, is he?
[08:00] <ryan444> i have downloaded Draker Dape but no go. The hash was incorrect on 3 seperate downloads on 3 seperate mirrors.
[08:00] <ryan444> I used imgburn
[08:00] <sarahg> Si1: usually that's all that's needed; the installer program will fetch anything that the program you're installing depends on.
[08:00] <Si1> cool
[08:00] <ryan444> But my computer is not booting it up.
[08:00] <ryan444> However, the bios are set to boot cd's first
[08:00] <jmiller565> oh ok did you make it bootable?
[08:00] <Hellevator> un_operateur, but doesn't he need gcc to compile his cpp programs?
[08:00] <ryan444> tried on 2 machines
[08:00] <ryan444> Yep.
[08:00] <frogzoo> ryan444: d/l using bit torrent will give you a more reliable image
[08:01] <ryan444> and will that give me viruses?
[08:01] <un_operateur> Hellevator, gcc and g++ are depends for anjuta AFAIK
[08:01] <jmiller565> soz Ryan i don't know anything else. soz
[08:01] <frogzoo> ryan444: however, your network is a worry, you should fix
[08:01] <ryan444> network?
[08:01] <ryan444> oh sorry.
[08:01] <ryan444> I am being rather blunt here its 2 A.M.
[08:01] <ryan444> I will try bit torrent right now.
[08:02] <frogzoo> ryan444: errors in d/s should be a 1/E9 experience
[08:02] <cpuobsessed> which channel is for Feisty Fawn?
[08:02] <frogzoo> ryan444: check for errors on your nic - & set 10/100 HD/FD properly
[08:02] <frogzoo> cpuobsessed: #ubuntu+1
[08:02] <jmiller565> BRB
[08:02] <cpuobsessed> thanks
[08:03] <andrej> How do I "unmark" packages marked for deletion again?  I have a couple of things I tried to delete that would remove all of KDE if it went through.  It failed because of dependency problems
[08:03] <ryan444> ok guys could you please be more specific.
[08:03] <ryan444> I am good at this stuff but i ahve never used irc before.
[08:03] <ryan444> and didn't really want to but meh.
[08:04] <un_operateur> andrej, is this in synaptic?
[08:04] <andrej> dselect
[08:04] <frogzoo> andrej: edit -> unmark all
[08:04] <redDEADresolve> im having a login screen resolution problem. any help?
[08:05] <frogzoo> !fixres | redDEADresolve
[08:05] <ubotu> redDEADresolve: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart" in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:05] <luke_> ketche:  still around?  :)
[08:05] <andrej> frogzoo - there's no edit in dselect?
[08:06] <sarahg> Anyone running ubuntu on a thinkpad? Does it run well there? Is it hard to set up?
[08:06] <jay_> un_operateur, but I cann't "apt-get install termcap_compact". Is there other way to get through it?
[08:06] <redDEADresolve> i've tried the automated response howto but its not working
[08:06] <strabes> sarahg: thinkpads are quite popular among linux users i believe
[08:06] <ryan444> i am downloading it via bit torrent now.
[08:06] <ryan444> Hopefully this will work.
[08:07] <luke_> anyone had any trouble sharing folders across a LAN with Vista?  I think I have everything set up correctly, but it keeps prompting for a username/password that doesn't exist
[08:07] <andrej> sarahg - I'm running it on an R60, and so far I'm unimpressed :)
[08:07] <frogzoo> andrej: oh kde, dunno
[08:07] <sarahg> strabes: yeah that's the impression I get.
[08:07] <sarahg> Is R60 a kind of thinkpad?
[08:07] <andrej> frogzoo - dselect has nothing to do with KDE :)
[08:07] <andrej> sarahg : yes
[08:07] <mohlertm> Un_operateur:  I am sorry for bugging you.....i am just so new.  the smbmount --help was foreign to me :-(  I didn't understand a thing it told me.  Can you help me out and tell me the command line I would put inside a terminal to mount my network drive with the following address "smb://gaming"?
[08:07] <frogzoo> luke_: do you have a 'guest' account on the doze box?
[08:07] <un_operateur> jay_,   sudo apt-get build-dep emacs emacs21
[08:08] <Si1> anjuta is giving me an error when I try to compile it.  I made a test file, tried to include iostream, but it says "no such file or directory"
[08:08] <sarahg> andrej: ok. I gather setup is a pain on laptops generally.
[08:08] <luke_> frogzoo: nope.  Seems to work just fine with my XP Pro computer, but Vista and Ubuntu don't seem to be playing nice
[08:08] <frogzoo> luke_: also it's unclear which end your're serving files from
[08:08] <sarahg> Si1: do you have gcc installed?
[08:08] <andrej> sarahg: the install was a breeze (when one ignores that I didn't get prompted for a network setup, and it just assumed I'd be using dhcp).
[08:09] <redDEADresolve> froguz i've tried the howto, 1600x1080 isn't anywhere in my xorg file but its still outputing 1680x1080 at the startup screen
[08:09] <andrej> I don't like ubuntus inne works, that's all
[08:09] <andrej> inner even
[08:09] <luke_> frogzoo: currently I'm trying to access visto from Efft, but I am pretty sure I had trouble going the other way too, my bro is at the Vista computer I'll ask him if he can see me
[08:09] <frogzoo> redDEADresolve: sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf & remove the unwanted res
[08:09] <trinkolade> luke_, I read that they have changed the protocoll somehow in Vista, so that smb cannot access the vista machine
[08:09] <un_operateur> mohlertm, ok -- no worries --  just substitute your values here -->  mount -t smbfs -o username=username,password=password //othercompname/share ~/netfolder
[08:09] <sarahg> oh, ok. I've been using ubuntu on the desktop for a couple of years and I'm about as happy as I was with SuSE but spending much less keeping up to date.
[08:09] <Si1> in the error window thing, it says "gcc      -c"test.c" -o"test.o"
[08:10] <redDEADresolve> frogzoo its nowhere in my xorg file thats whats so weird
[08:10] <andrej> I've been using for a few months after years of slackware, and can't stand it ;}
[08:10] <luke_> trinkolade:  yeah that's what I figured.  I was just wondering if I was doing something stupid
[08:10] <luke_> trinkolade:  know if there is a work around?
[08:10] <trinkolade> luke_, no, not yet
[08:11] <sarahg> andrej: ah ok. Ubuntu does attempt to be "user friendly" which can mean making assumptions to avoid putting the user on the spot with questions etc
[08:11] <un_operateur> Sil, you probably need to install the standard C libraries -- sudo aptitude install build-essential
[08:11] <andrej> Things are so complicated if I need something that hasn't been already built in, I just never know where to begin;  there's such a lack of simplicity due tothe ease of use
[08:11] <luke_> trinkolade:  np. yay for flash drives :).   Thanks!
[08:11] <ryan444> I thought bit torrent was horribly slow...at least used to be.
[08:11] <ryan444> But working quite fine.
[08:11] <sarahg> ok, ok. I haven't had any trouble compiling up programs for /usr/local so far
[08:11] <un_operateur> sarahg, ubuntu is not windows eh .. if you use ubuntu, you have to start thinking differently to how windows conditioned you
[08:12] <Si1> my bad, i had made a c file instead of c++
[08:12] <andrej> un_operateur ... and there was me thinking ubuntu was trying to be thewindows amongst the Linux distros
[08:12] <trinkolade> luke_, np ;)
[08:13] <un_operateur> sarahg, ubuntu itself is quite structured and easy to get around -- the same does not apply to all the software that it runs tho, thats beyond ubuntu itself
[08:13] <ryan444> The hash is still wrong.
[08:13] <ryan444> Damn.
[08:13] <sarahg> un_operateur: my point was there's a "simple to use" vs "lots of flexability" tradeoff and Ubuntu leans towards the "easy to use" side about as much as linuxes do.
[08:13] <ryan444> If the hash is the wrong the file will not work period correct?
[08:13] <nia_c> hi all
[08:13] <ryan444> hi
[08:13] <Si1> now it's saying sh: g++: command not found when I compile, but I'm pretty sure g++ is installed.  Help?
[08:13] <sharp15> i know i've been in and out of here on this issue all night. sorry.
[08:13] <nia_c> ryan444?
[08:14] <un_operateur> andrej, ubuntu tries to be easy - not to be windows -- i think theres a marked difference there
[08:14] <sarahg> apt-get install g++  seems worth a try :)
[08:14] <strabes> is there a mouse-mirroring program for linux? i'm trying to make one of these crazy soap devices
[08:14] <ryan444> Hmmm.
[08:14] <ryan444> Damn
[08:14] <strabes> or could I somehow change the sensitivity to negative in xorg.conf or something
[08:14] <Si1> sarahg k ill try it
[08:14] <sharp15> does anyone here know if proftpd is prone to immediately shutting itsellf off without an error message? or did the package maintainter intentionally compile v1.3.0 without IPv4 support?
[08:15] <nia_c> r u all ok?
[08:15] <andrej> un_operateur - it hides detail, just like windows;  it may not be doing it to mimick windows intentionally, but it sure heads the same direction
[08:15] <derek_> un_operateur: ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso
[08:16] <un_operateur> andrej, if Linux is about catering to choice (which it is, due to the numerous distributions out there) ubuntu caters to those people who dont really want to get bogged down with detail (as do many windows users)
[08:16] <derek_> and woah, windows shows the size of the ISO as: 715,130 KB
[08:16] <derek_> More than 700 MB???
[08:16] <frogzoo> derek_: yep, that's fine
[08:16] <derek_> ok
[08:16] <derek_> but the CD is only 700 MB
[08:16] <andrej> anyway... for me another 3 frustrating ubuntu hours are over, and I wish for the simplicity of slackware ;}
[08:17] <ryan444> its only 700 MB
[08:17] <ryan444> Just get a DVD
[08:17] <frogzoo> derek_: just burn the iso already
[08:17] <mohlertm> un_operateur:  So I do I know it mounted it?
[08:17] <derek_> ok
[08:17] <ryan444> Its honestly not that expneisve.
[08:17] <sarahg> 698.369140625 MB actually
[08:17] <sarahg> you divide by 1024 :)
[08:17] <derek_> waiting for the MD5 file
[08:17] <Si1> sarahg, now it is compiling succesfully but it won't let me run it, it says there is no executable for this file
[08:17] <andrej> If installing all the mulitmedia stuff from source didn't take so long ubuntu would have long be gone
[08:17] <ryan444> I have been trying to just get mine to work for 3 days.
[08:17] <derek_> un_operateur: ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso
[08:17] <ryan444> Its a combination of things, however my hash never comes out correctly.
[08:17] <andrej> cheers
[08:18] <ryan444> so i gave up on that a while ago.
[08:18] <sarahg> Si1, I've never actually used ajuntu myself so I'm not sure where it puts the executable by default.
[08:18] <un_operateur> derek_, no offence, but  http://www.google.com/search?num=100&complete=1&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q=ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso+md5&btnG=Search    :)
[08:18] <frogzoo> ryan444: try burning @ 1/2 the max speed of your writer
[08:18] <sarahg> what was the last command line it ran, do you have it there?
[08:18] <luke_> I'm probably preaching to the choir, but Beryl Rocks :)
[08:18] <Si1> well it made a file that is test.o, but I click it and get an error, does anyone know how ajunta works?
[08:18] <ryan444> huh
[08:19] <ryan444> I'll try.
[08:19] <sarahg> test.o is an object file, but not an executable
[08:19] <ryan444> I have about 6 or 7 dvd's with ubuntu on them.
[08:19] <un_operateur> mohlertm, if the command does not return any errors -- then you know it has worked and you should be able to access the share by browsing the ~/netfolder directory in your home folder
[08:19] <ryan444> any other tips before i burn it agian?
[08:19] <sarahg> compiling typically goes lots of c files -> lots of object files -> one executable or library
[08:20] <DigitalNinja> I'm cramming a bunch of drives in an old compaq. I'm trying to turn it into a server. Is the heat going to be a problem?
[08:20] <sarahg> maybe look for just "test", although be careful there's a system program called testg
[08:20] <sarahg> test
[08:20] <Si1> how do I make an executable? Before, i just hit compile and it made one, albeit it was windows but still
[08:20] <rapid> DigitalNinja, make sure theres plenty of air flow
[08:20] <Si1> there is only test.cc and test.o
[08:20] <sarahg> are there options other than compile?
[08:20] <ryan444> Yeah, keep it ventilated.
[08:20] <sarahg> technically it did compile, it just didn't link
[08:20] <ryan444> I just have one fan on my server.
[08:20] <un_operateur> Sil, you are probably better off doing the compiling at the command line -- cc file.c -o file; chmod +x file; ./file
[08:20] <frogzoo> DigitalNinja: you're better placed to make that judgement
[08:20] <ryan444> Never had it "blow" up.
[08:20] <sarahg> maybe theres an option called "build" or something that does more?
[08:20] <DigitalNinja> rapid: It's an old compaq from 98/99. I may need to add an extra fan or two.
[08:21] <Si1> yeah sorry I should've tried that, there was a build button that I ignored
[08:21] <ryan444> Mine is from 98.
[08:21] <Si1> thanks for your help
[08:21] <sarahg> no worries
[08:21] <DigitalNinja> frogzoo: I'm just wondering what heat will do to the drives/motherobard etc...
[08:21] <ryan444> Shouldn't be too much heat.
[08:21] <ryan444> Fry them.
[08:21] <rapid> DigitalNinja, try to allow sufficient space between drives always rather than clustering them on top of each other
[08:21] <sarahg> build generally refers to the whole thing; compiling, linking and anything else thats needed
[08:21] <frogzoo> DigitalNinja: heat will kill your drives
[08:21] <ryan444> Depends how much work your expecting from them.
[08:22] <ryan444> I am giving this one more try folks
[08:22] <DigitalNinja> frogzoo: In one of my systems the drives were getting HOT. However, everything seemd to run just fine.
[08:22] <refus3d> ZOMG! o4o
[08:22] <rapid> "seemed"
[08:23] <ryan444> i have an option
[08:23] <ryan444> What is the optimal burning speed for ubuntu?
[08:23] <rapid> thats your burners decision
[08:23] <ryan444> lol
[08:24] <ryan444> Yeah, but i can choose the write speed.
[08:24] <ryan444> 8x correct?
[08:24] <rapid> 8x should be sweet.
[08:24] <rapid> though quite slow
[08:24] <rapid> little room for error.
[08:26] <ryan444> alright
[08:26] <ryan444> Thanks rapid.
[08:26] <ryan444> I am gonna try and burn it and then throw it on the windows 98 se in the other room.
[08:27] <mohlertm> un-operateur: when I put the following in a terminal "mount -t smbfs -o username=tommy,password=gracey //gaming/share ~/netfolder" it says that "COULD NOT RESOLVE MOUNT POINT /HOME/TOMMY/NETFOLDER"  Did i do something wrong?
[08:28] <jay_> un_operateur, I got it---whay synaptic package manager doesn't work? ---I must set the HTTP Proxy in Preference, as: anyoujiang:abcdefg@192.168.0.1  and Port:8080. Then apply the update. Then everything now goes well.
[08:28] <un_operateur> mohlertm, oops -- sorry -- you need to make the folder first -- run this --  mkdir  ~/netfolder
[08:28] <ryan444> let's see what it did.
[08:29] <ryan444> should i be able to see files and folders on the disc correct?
[08:29] <un_operateur> jay_, thats nice -- apt works through proxies -- but other applications are not so clever -- so you're kinda stuck there

[08:33] <frogzoo> ajayme: you upgrade to edgy from dapper?
[08:34] <un_operateur> ajayme,  what does this command say -- echo $LANG
[08:34] <mohlertm> un_operateru: it was while ago, let me check again?  Maybe I should be more clear while i go and check that.  gaming is the name of the xp computer i want to connect to.  "USB - 80" is the drive in the "gaming" xp machine that I want to mount (i am sharing the whole drive on my network).
[08:34] <ajayme>   frogzoo : i install samba then i created folder but i cant access that
[08:35] <un_operateur> mohlertm, ahh -- ok -- first off -- share that drive on the XP computer with a name that has no spaces -- something like "games" -- second off, reflect that in the command -- mount -t smbfs -o username=tommy,password=gracey //gaming/games ~/netfolder
[08:36] <ajayme> frogzoo : i install samba ,then i created folder but i cant access that
[08:36] <un_operateur> ajayme, what has emacs got to do with samba, and vice versa?

[08:52] <GreyGhost> "root (hd0,00 Filesystem type unknown " did i read that correctly? is there a typo there?
[08:52] <musashi> GreyGhost: the file was empty

[08:57] <mohlertm> un_operateur:  are you still there? Did you get my earlier message?
[08:58] <FunnyLookinHat> ajayme, well, if you are accessing stuff on another windows computer from your own, the easiest way is to go to Places - Connect to Server, and put in the other computers IP address and select windows share from the pulldown
[08:58] <Geoffrey2> oh, repeating an earlier question, is there any way to add a folder to the Places menu at the top of the desktop?
[08:58] <GreyGhost> Bepo , i don't really know what the problem is... but can u please do a thing ? please google for "Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7 GRUB"  .... cos a whole lot of results come up ... i'd stay and help u out all the way ... but I've got a class in 5 minutes :( ... sorry... but in case u can't figure it out ... please do ask the question here agin....

[09:08] <jarrod> i need some help with the irC
[09:09] <ajayme> FunnyLookinHat : i want to know about samba
[09:10] <FunnyLookinHat> ajayme, lol what do you want to know about it?  Sounds like you should search "samba tutorial" on ubuntuforums.org
[09:11] <jarrod> i wanna know how to connect top the "telstra" irc network
[09:11] <jarrod> *to*
[09:12] <ajayme>  FunnyLookinHat : when i format the linux then windows does not start
[09:13] <FunnyLookinHat> ajayme, ...  you probably formatted your entire hard drive, which would erase windows.  sounds like you are out of luck.
[09:14] <zenethic> hello
[09:14] <FunnyLookinHat> howdy
[09:14] <haboy_> on ubuntu 6.10 edgy. does VLC supports .mkv matroska files by default?
[09:15] <noob> anybody: is there a way the Windows OS can see the Linux OS?
[09:15] <Hellevator> haboy_ I'm guessing you tried playing a .mkv file and it didn't work?
[09:15] <ajayme>  FunnyLookinHat : no i insert the linux cd and famat only swap area and linux drive
[09:15] <haboy_> Hellevator: yep
[09:15] <zenethic> no
[09:15] <haboy_> Hellevator: it plays on mplayer, but there's no subtitles
[09:15] <Hellevator> noob: do you know what file system you installed linux with?
[09:15] <frogzoo> noob: for file sharing, yes = samba, for desktop access, you need a doze xserver
[09:15] <zenethic> automatix2
[09:15] <noob> fat32
[09:16] <FunnyLookinHat> ajayme, if you inserted the Ubuntu LiveCD and chose to format your hard drive you probably erased windows partitions.   If not, the reason windows may not work is because your bootloader is not setup correctly
[09:16] <Pie-rate> !automatix
[09:16] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:16] <noob> Hellevator: its Fat32
[09:16] <FunnyLookinHat> automatix is awful.
[09:16] <Hellevator> noob, if you installed linux on fat32 then windows should be able to see it
[09:16] <Hellevator> haboy_, I'm not sure man sorry, maybe someone else knows
[09:17] <noob> Hellevator: how??? i can just ping the IP but opening a shared folder i cant do it
[09:17] <haboy_> on ubuntu 6.10 edgy. does VLC supports .mkv matroska files by default?
[09:17] <FunnyLookinHat> haboy_, try googling "vlc mkv"  ??
[09:17] <Pie-rate> I've been screwing with getting LIRC working, and now if i hold down my keyboard's down button, it frequently types a '-' character instead of down
[09:17] <FunnyLookinHat> haboy_, since VLC supports formats on it's own (separate from an OS/Distribution dependancy) it would be the same for all versions of VLC
[09:18] <Pie-rate> wth is with that?
[09:18] <noob> Hellevator: by the way, whats the equivalent of Exe on Windows to Linux? i can't run the file i downloaded from the net which is a linux based software.
[09:18] <Hellevator> noob, oh I thought you were talking about on the same computer, um let me think.
[09:18] <FunnyLookinHat> noob, usually a .bin or .sh
[09:18] <alpa> can anyone guide me to make my repository universal?
[09:19] <FunnyLookinHat> noob, you usually have to chmod +x filename   first, then you can    ./filename    to run it
[09:19] <frogzoo> !samba | noob sounds like this is what you want
[09:19] <ubotu> noob sounds like this is what you want: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[09:19] <FunnyLookinHat> !multiverse | alpa
[09:19] <ubotu> alpa: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[09:19] <Hellevator> noob, what is the software you downloaded?
[09:19] <FunnyLookinHat> !EasySource | alpa
[09:19] <ubotu> alpa: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic.  It does not currently support Edgy sources.  When asked if it will, the reply was "maybe".
[09:19] <Pie-rate> if i hold down my keyboard's down button, it frequently types a '-' character instead of down, this is a critical problem, how can i fix it?
[09:20] <Hellevator> frogzoo, noob wants to be able to see linux from windows not the other way around
[09:20] <noob> Hellevator: Oracle Database(i think its a trial version)
[09:21] <Pie-rate> I think some kind of buffer is getting overloaded because it only happens after being held down for a few seconds
[09:21] <racarr> noob: The equivalent of an exe on linux is an ELF binary, but there is no one extension
[09:21] <Hellevator> noob, ok something like oracle database needs to be installed, it doesn't run standalone.  Oracle likely included installation instructions with it.
[09:21] <Hellevator> for linux
[09:21] <racarr> noob: Look for a file 'INSTALL' or 'README'
[09:21] <jbs> hi
[09:22] <FunnyLookinHat> Pie-rate, um... when you hold down the down-arrow, you shouldn't type anything usually...    so it's probably typing the ascii equivalent of the character/integer it thinks it's reading
[09:22] <jbs> re hi
[09:22] <Hellevator> welcome jbs
[09:22] <jbs> thanks
[09:23] <jbs> succesed install 6.10 edgy on my pc
[09:23] <FunnyLookinHat> jbs, grats!
[09:23] <Hellevator> jbs, sweet! You have any problems?
[09:24] <jbs> ^^
[09:24] <noob> anybody: How can i open an .SH File?
[09:24] <Pie-rate> funnylookinhat: i'm holding down the down arrow key ONLY, and its randomly either going down or typing a -
[09:24] <jbs> codec for totem..
[09:24] <racarr> noob: That's a script, in a console in the same directory as it you can run './filename.SH' to run it
[09:24] <Hellevator> noob, you run sh files, type ./file.sh in console
[09:24] <FunnyLookinHat> Pie-rate, but in what program?  it sounds like an error with the program, not your main system...
[09:24] <jbs> now study ubuntu...
[09:24] <Pie-rate> funnylookinhat: everything
[09:24] <Pie-rate> funnylookinhat: gedit, vim, pico
[09:24] <noob> Ty
[09:24] <Pie-rate> bash
[09:25] <FunnyLookinHat> noob, you may have to do   "chmod +x filename.sh" first
[09:25] <Pie-rate> gaim
[09:25] <noob> ok ill do it
[09:25] <jbs> and study xgl
[09:25] <Hellevator> noob, you can also open sh files in a text editor to view them.
[09:25] <Hellevator> jbs, make sure to have fun while your studying
[09:26] <jbs> ^^
[09:26] <noob> Hellavator: can i copy and paste it to the terminal?
[09:26] <Hellevator> noob, what do you mean?
[09:26] <racarr> noob: No, you don't copy paste it to the tterminal...in the terminal use 'cd' to get to the directory it is in
[09:26] <FunnyLookinHat> Pie-rate, i have a feeling you're making a big deal out of nothing really that important...   seems like a nominal problem that's simply due to your keyboard config or something.   still seems like a programming error for the program
[09:26] <noob> ok ty
[09:26] <jbs> m
[09:26] <racarr> noob: i.e. 'cd Desktop/folder'
[09:26] <Pie-rate> funnylookinhat: it is a big deal
[09:26] <racarr> noob: and run './file.sh' or 'sh file.sh'
[09:26] <Hellevator> or more likely
[09:27] <Hellevator> nvm
[09:27] <jbs> hellebator...where u r contury?
[09:27] <FunnyLookinHat> Pie-rate, lol ok.  well sorry I don't think I know of a solution for ya
[09:27] <Bepo> ANyone here know how to solve the Grub problem: Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7
[09:27] <Bepo> Tried Dual booting but i keep getting the same error message
[09:27] <Pie-rate> funnylookinhat its a huge deal, if you couldnt use your down arrow properly you'd know how much of a pain in the ass it is. i havn't noticed it before now and believe me, i would have.
[09:28] <racarr> Bepo: Do you have /boot on something like ReiserFS?
[09:28] <Hellevator> jbs, where do I live? California, US
[09:28] <Pie-rate> i guess i'll just try restarting...
[09:28] <jbs> i'm south korea.
[09:28] <FunnyLookinHat> Pie-rate, save your rants for somewhere else...  ;)    Can you use your down arrow to page down on a web page in firefox?  if so, then you're crying in the wrong room
[09:28] <Bepo> Racarr: to be honest I dont know what that is... so I"m assuming now... you want to walk me through that?
[09:28] <noob> ok ill try
[09:28] <noob> ty
[09:29] <jbs> glad too meet you.
[09:29] <racarr> Bepo: If you aren't sure then probably not, you would have to do it specifically
[09:29] <Bepo> racarr: ah ok then no
[09:29] <Hellevator> jbs, nice to meet you :)
[09:29] <racarr> Bepo: When does this occur, after you pick an OS at grub?
[09:29] <racarr> Bepo: Any os?
[09:29] <Pie-rate> funnylookinhat: no, i can't. so i suppose i'm crying in the correct room.
[09:29] <jbs> plz understand me...i'm so beginer... ^^
[09:29] <Bepo> Racarr yeah so when I try to load XP I get that message: root (hd0,0) Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7
[09:30] <Pie-rate> just tested it
[09:30] <jbs> and short english...
[09:30] <Bepo> Racarr: ubuntu is just fine though
[09:30] <Pie-rate> it works for approximately 1 second before it stops
[09:30] <Pie-rate> well, i'm restarting
[09:31] <racarr> Bepo: One hard drive?
[09:31] <Bepo> racarr: one hard drive only
[09:31] <rcrook> I managed to get Ubuntu installed on my on Ultra2 SPARC today... works  smooth for an old sparc box.
[09:31] <racarr> Bepo: At grub, try hitting e to edit the windows xp, then e to edit the root (hd0,0) entry
[09:32] <racarr> Bepo: And change it to rootnoverify(hd0,0)
[09:32] <Bepo> ok let me do that on my desktop hold a sec
[09:32] <racarr> Bepo: Then enter to save it, then b to boot
[09:32] <noob> To All: nice it works, ty guys
[09:32] <Pie-rate> yeah restarting fixed it... for now
[09:33] <Bepo> racarr it says Error 27: Unrecognized command
[09:34] <Bepo> racarr: should there be a space? or does it not matter
[09:34] <racarr> Bepo: Mm, I don't know if it will matter, but I have always put/seen a space
[09:34] <jbs> some problem
[09:35] <jbs> i can;t use korean word,,only english
[09:35] <racarr> Bepo: rootnoverify (hd0,0)
[09:35] <Pie-rate> crap, problem's back. i think its an LIRC problem
[09:35] <Bepo> racarr: just dies at the same screen
[09:35] <Pie-rate> !lirc
[09:35] <ubotu> lirc: Linux Infra-red Remote Control support. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.8.0-5ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 308 kB, installed size 1544 kB
[09:35] <racarr> Bepo: Mm, what is ubuntus root set to?
[09:35] <Bepo> racarr: well not die but just pauses there
[09:35] <racarr> Bepo: And did you install windows before or after ubuntu? and is it Vista?
[09:36] <Bepo> racarr: its XP, and originally XP was installed first
[09:36] <deep`> Okay, i need some help. How can i mount a bin/cue-image?
[09:36] <jbs> 
[09:36] <racarr> Bepo: Mmn, ok, what is ubuntus root set to in GRUB?
[09:36] <jbs> ok..i can use korean type
[09:36] <Bepo> racarr: how do i check?
[09:37] <racarr> Bepo: Select the ubuntu entry in g rub like you  did the windows entry with e and llook for the root (bla) stuff
[09:37] <racarr> Bepo: Or inside of ubuntu look in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:38] <Bepo> racarr: root (hd0,1)
[09:39] <Bepo> racarr: "in your BIOS set your hard drive setting to LBA instead of [auto]  and reboot.  " I saw this as a solution on google dont know if it works. DOnt know how to do the solution haha
[09:39] <Bepo> racarr: can you tell me how to do that?
[09:40] <racarr> Bepo: When your computer starts up it probably has somethinng like <ESC> or <F12> for Setup/BIOS/something like that
[09:40] <racarr> Bepo: Hit that and look for the aforementioned option, theres not much I can tell you beyond that because I don't know what BIOS you have, or don't know what the interface would be if I did know
[09:43] <Bepo> racarr: hmmm dont know what im doing hahaha
[09:43] <Hellevator> raul, about half the linux community
[09:43] <raul> anyone knows if I will be blessed with composite support for my ATI x1400?
[09:43] <racarr> Bepo: Ok, try booting in to ubuntu on that machine
[09:44] <Bepo> racarr: Going in now. Thanks by the way for helping me
[09:44] <racarr> Bepo: And when you get in, put the contents of /boot/grub/menu.lst on
[09:44] <racarr> !pastebin
[09:44] <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 (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:44] <raul> we must go to ati corporate building and burn it
[09:44] <racarr> and send the link
[09:44] <racarr> Bepo: No problem
[09:44] <Hellevator> raul, buying an nvidia card would be cheaper
[09:45] <racarr> Yay intel integrated
[09:45] <Hellevator> raul, also a technicality. AMD bought ATI, we'd have to burn the AMD building
[09:45] <raul> yeah, but its a litle bit dificult if you have a laptop
[09:46] <raul> I have to live with this fact, no replacement for my portable... :(
[09:47] <Hellevator> raul, touche
[09:47] <racarr> Yeah, it's difficult for laptops
[09:47] <racarr> have to gather proper INTEL *cough* INTEL *cough* INTEL
[09:47] <racarr> beforehand
[09:48] <Bepo> racarr: what do i put in for syntax?
[09:48] <racarr> Bepo: Doesn't matter really
[09:48] <Hellevator> racarr, unfortunately many people become enlightened on linux AFTER they purchase their laptop
[09:48] <racarr> Hellevator: Heh, yeah, I just seized the opportunity to make a horrible pun
[09:49] <Bep1> racarr: this is Bepo http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38196/
[09:49] <Pie-rate> I've tried everything, I can't fix this, and it randomly started happening. my down arrow randomly types '-'s when i hold it down. this is NOT something I can live with, at all. here, i'll hold it down for 10 seconds: --------------
[09:49] <racarr> Bepo Bep1: Ok, juust a second...
[09:49] <fnf> rate: Check your locale and keyboard mode.
[09:50] <Hellevator> the good news is nvidia is outselling ATI so ATI knows it needs to step up somehow.  Maybe AMD will realize that it could have something to do with the fact that nobody running linux wants an ATI card
[09:50] <Pie-rate> when it types a -, down stops working. so it'll stop scrolling down in firefox, for example.
[09:50] <raul> so, there is no hope for me?
[09:50] <Pie-rate> fnf: keyboard mode?
[09:51] <fnf> Pie-rate: I mean the character set and keyboard mode in /etc/default/console-setup, perhaps your existing apps messed it up.
[09:51] <fnf> Pie-rate: Did it happen when you were in console ?
[09:51] <Hellevator> raul, I say give it ~1 year.  Given the amount Linux changed in 2006 there is bound to be decent ATI support by the end of 2007.
[09:51] <tubo^bph> Heya all, i am experiencing trouble with my ipw3945 WLAN driver , it drops / reconnects me once every 60 min or so. I would like to reserach what kernel module options i could tweak but do not know how to get a list of all possible options, or where to put them - any clues?
[09:51] <racarr> Bepo Bep1: I don't see a problem with the file, so maybe something with your bios doesn't work well with GRUB
[09:51] <Pie-rate> fnf: it happens in vi, pico, gedit, bash, firefox, and gaim
[09:51] <racarr> Bepo Bep1: We can try installingg a different boot loader
[09:52] <Bep1> racarr: sure
[09:52] <fnf> Pie-rate: Did it happen if you boot straight to console, not starting X ?
[09:52] <Pie-rate> fnf: i just found an extraneous section in xorg.conf that i forgot to remove. be right back, restarting x
[09:52] <Bep1> racarr: it would have to be on CD though, cuz I dont have floppy :/
[09:52] <Pie-rate> fnf: let me check
[09:52] <Bep1> racarr: just tell me what to do
[09:53] <raul> heheheh, in 1 year my lap will be obsolet and replace with another, and I swear of god that will have NVIDIA
[09:53] <racarr> Bep1: Ok, just a second...
[09:53] <Pie-rate> fnf: getting rid of that extra section didn't work. should i stop x or will doing it in ctrl-alt-f1 work?
[09:54] <Bep1> racarr: I know for a fact Ubuntu has worked on my system before and dual booted succesfully. But onde day I decided to try Suse... and yeah switched back.... and thats why I'm in this mess right now
[09:54] <racarr> Bep1: Going to make the configuration sfile for you...
[09:54] <Bep1> racarr: ok
[09:54] <Pie-rate> eh i'll just stop x to be on the safe side
[09:54] <fnf> Pie-rate: Sure, but you should probably try to shutdown X completely, or reboot without starting X. Do you happen to know that already ?
[09:54] <racarr> Bep1: If it's worked before though...maybe installing another bootloader isn't the solution
[09:54] <nepa> raphink, hi
[09:54] <raphink> hi nepa
[09:54] <fnf> Pie-rate: Just guessing, X might be the cause.
[09:54] <Pie-rate> fnf: /etc/init.d/gdm stop?
[09:55] <fnf> Pie-rate: Yes
[09:55] <Bep1> racarr: i think it may have been SUSE that screwed this up?
[09:55] <Pie-rate> brb
[09:55] <racarr> Bep1: Maybe, or windows isn't where it thinks it is on the disk anymore...
[09:55] <raul> oks, Hellevator, thank you for illustration, have to downgrade win dos, life sucks
[09:55] <racarr> Bep1: What does 'fdisk -l' give, put it on pastebin
[09:56] <Pie-rate> fnf: no, it doesn't happen there
[09:56] <nepa> raphink, what is going on?
[09:56] <Hellevator> raul, actually don't take much I said seriously. I don't have an ATI card so I'm not very knowledgeable on them.  Check the forums in you haven't already.
[09:56] <fnf> Pie-rate: My last guess, check if System-->Preferences-->Keyboard to see if the locale was rightly set to US (?)
[09:56] <Bep1> racarr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38197/
[09:57] <fnf> Pie-rate: Or else you should try to reinstall GNOME/X if that doesn't ehlp.
[09:57] <Pie-rate> U.S. English
[09:57] <racarr> Bep1: Ohh...that's not right...
[09:58] <Pie-rate> this is they only keyboard section in my xorg.conf:
[09:58] <Pie-rate> Section "InputDevice"
[09:58] <Pie-rate>     # generated from default
[09:58] <Pie-rate>     Identifier     "Keyboard0"
[09:58] <Pie-rate>     Driver         "kbd"
[09:58] <Pie-rate> EndSection
[09:58] <Erb_> How do you reorder tasks in a panel?
[09:58] <fnf> Pie-rate: It seems to be lacking some important fields.
[09:58] <Pie-rate> fnf: like?
[09:58] <racarr> Bep1: See how /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda5 are in the same place?
[09:58] <starz> hey
[09:58] <starz> anyone know how to get a taller toolbar on icewm?
[09:59] <fnf> Pie-rate: I would post mine if that doesn't fix it, but try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver' first, that faster.
[09:59] <starz> and icewm is lighter than gnome and the like right?
[09:59] <starz> should be lighter than xfce rite?
[09:59] <Bep1> racarr: yeah
[09:59] <Bep1> racarr: is it fixable?
[09:59] <Pie-rate> fnf: i don't want to screw up my nvidia config...
[09:59] <racarr> Bep1: Ok, apt-get install gparted, then run 'sudo gparted' and I will walk you through fixing it
[09:59] <racarr> Bep1: Yes, deleting the swap partition and recreating it should fix it
[10:00] <racarr> Bep1: No data loss, swap gets cleared at each boot anyway
[10:00] <fnf> Pie-rate: Just back it up... ok, here's the relevant info:
[10:00] <Pie-rate> but i'll back it up
[10:00] <raphink> how do you mean nepa?
[10:00] <fnf> Pie-rate:Section "InputDevice"
[10:00] <fnf>         Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
[10:00] <fnf>         Driver          "kbd"
[10:00] <fnf>         Option          "CoreKeyboard"
[10:00] <fnf>         Option          "XkbRules"      "xorg"
[10:00] <haboy_> from breezy? do i need to upgrade to dapper before i could upgrade to edgy?
[10:00] <fnf>         Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
[10:00] <fnf>         Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
[10:00] <fnf> EndSection
[10:00] <rausb0> starz: yes, icewm is lighter than xfce
[10:00] <Pie-rate> jschall@jon:/etc/X11$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver
[10:00] <Pie-rate> Package `xserver' is not installed and no info is available.
[10:00] <fnf> Oh, sorry, it should go to pastebin
[10:00] <starz> rausb0, right on.
[10:00] <fnf> Pie-rate: xserver-corg, sorry.
[10:00] <starz> i think im gonna downgrade to server install + icewm
[10:00] <fnf> Pie-rate: xserver-xorg.
[10:00] <starz> :D
[10:00] <stabber> someone died.
[10:01] <starz> but ive never gotten xdm to work unfortunately
[10:01] <starz> knwo of a good guide for that rausb0 ?
[10:01] <Bep1> racarr: brought a Gparted screen
[10:01] <rausb0> starz: however, when using a pure window manager i'd prefer fluxbox
[10:01] <racarr> Bep1: Ok, I'm not sure exactly how gparted is  going to show it because the partition table is messed up, so how do you see the bar that shows portions of the disks and what device they are
[10:01] <rausb0> starz: what xdm troubles do you have?
[10:01] <racarr> Bep1: I.e. you should see /dev/sda1 at the front, and it should fill up about half
[10:02] <Bep1> racarr: yup /dev/sda1 fills up half
[10:02] <iLLf8d> hey all whats the install footprint of x86 ubuntu like 4G?
[10:02] <stabber> i can't change my SSID on my router i'll have to let my dad do it
[10:02] <Bep1> racarr: comes first
[10:02] <racarr> Bep1: Actually in the list below
[10:02] <racarr> Bep1: For filesystem, you have NTFS - Ext 3 - and Swap, right?
[10:03] <Hellevator> quick question: what package contains the svn command?
[10:03] <racarr> Bep1: linux-swap
[10:03] <fnf> Hellevator: subversion, hint: install apt-file to get answer to these type of questions.
[10:03] <Bep1> racarr: ntfs, ext 3, extended, swap
[10:04] <CotRo|eR> !basic commands
[10:04] <racarr> Bep1: Oh, I'm stupid, that was an extended partition, not an ext3, so I'm not sure if there actually should be a problem
[10:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about basic commands - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:04] <racarr> Bep1: *smack self*
[10:04] <CotRo|eR> !commands
[10:04] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[10:05] <racarr> Bep1: Ok...scratch that sorry
[10:05] <stabber> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:05] <Bep1> racarr: oh hahaha. /dev/sda3 is extended. then it drops down to /dev/sda5 linux swap
[10:05] <racarr> Bep1: Yeah, sorry....late here and wasn't paying attention
[10:05] <Gunslinger|Deags> hello is anyone here
[10:05] <Gunslinger|Deags> yay
[10:05] <fnf> !Hi
[10:05] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> someone is
[10:06] <Bep1> racarr: no worries
[10:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> alright well i really need some assistance as soon as someone has a chance
[10:06] <fnf> !ask | Gunslinger|Deags
[10:06] <ubotu> Gunslinger|Deags: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> ooooo
[10:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> cool ok ty
[10:06] <rkupv> Can anyone help me finding w32codecs?
[10:07] <racarr> Bep1: Just a second, have another idea, want to make sure it wownt break anything thoughg
[10:07] <Madpilot> ubotu, w32codec | rkupv
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about w32codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:07] <Bep1> racarr:Ok thanks! :)
[10:07] <Madpilot> ubotu, w32codecs | rkupv
[10:07] <ubotu> rkupv: 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
[10:07] <Gunslinger|Deags> even if my problem is like paragraph or two long?
[10:07] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, try and shorten it, or pastebin the long version and just link us to the pastebin
[10:07] <Hellevator> rkupv, try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[10:08] <Hellevator> Gunslinger|Deags, ask! :)
[10:08] <rkupv> I have been at most of those places, the problem is that easyubuntu stopped delivering w32codecs
[10:08] <racarr> Bep1: Mm...no...I don't know that is not going to break anything...
[10:08] <Madpilot> rkupv, the w32codecs repo changed a while back, eu might not have caught up yet
[10:09] <Madpilot> rkupv, it's easy to add manually, though
[10:09] <racarr> Bep1: Try lookingg around in your bios again for anything relating to LBA...
[10:09] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok well heres how it goes the short sweet version i burn the ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386 cd insert it and it basically does nothing when i hit enter to install it it starts to uncompress the cd then says starting kernal and stops all together
[10:09] <racarr> Bep1: It doesn't mattter if you don't know what you are doing, just don't save
[10:09] <Bep1> racarr: so it should be under setup?
[10:09] <Gunslinger|Deags> btw i have little to no previous exp with linux
[10:09] <Hellevator> Gunslinger|Deags, is the computer your trying to install it on really new?
[10:09] <bun-bun> does anyone know why firefox 2 isn't available through the repositories for 6.06?
[10:09] <Gunslinger|Deags> no its older
[10:09] <Gunslinger|Deags> aybe 4 years old
[10:10] <racarr> Bep1: I'm guessing after you hit the key for that you get a text driven menu with a bunch of options and hardware info? yes
[10:10] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, on the first screen you see when the LiveCD runs, there should be an option called "Check This CD" or similar - run that
[10:10] <Flannel> bun-bun: it won't be.
[10:10] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok one second
[10:10] <bun-bun> that wasn't my question
[10:10] <Flannel> bun-bun: Each release is frozen to the versions that it was released with
[10:10] <Flannel> bun-bun: well, besides bugfixes/security stuff
[10:10] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok it runs the check
[10:10] <Gunslinger|Deags> then says uncompressing
[10:10] <Pie-rate> fnf: nope. didn't do anything
[10:10] <bun-bun> i see
[10:10] <Gunslinger|Deags> then goes to the bar
[10:11] <Gunslinger|Deags> then waits
[10:11] <Bepo> racarr: ok im going in
[10:11] <Gunslinger|Deags> then goes back to uncompressing
[10:11] <racarr> Bepo: Ok
[10:11] <Gunslinger|Deags> and sits
[10:11] <Gunslinger|Deags> like before
[10:11] <bun-bun> so in order to upgrade my browser i have to upgrade my os
[10:11] <Bepo> racarr: I"m assumming go under Boot tab?
[10:11] <Madpilot> bun-bun, yes, an upgrade to 6.10 will get FF2.x
[10:11] <zircx> sup peeps, hey has anyone had problems with any of the updates? my machine seems to be slowing somewhat.. is there a benchmark proggy i could use to test it .. for some reason, it struggles to play youtube video's yet I had no problems before..
[10:11] <racarr> Bepo: I don't think so, it's more likely to be under somethingn related to Disk, just look around
[10:12] <zircx> something seems to have different about my system
[10:12] <boguh> hi, where can i find cd covers for ubuntu?
[10:12] <racarr> Bepo: It might be set to Large or Auto right now
[10:12] <Flannel> bun-bun: if you want to use the official repositories.  I believe FF2 may be in the backports
[10:12] <Hellevator> Gunslinger|Deags, if the bar doesn't get all the way across eventually then your CD is defective and you should burn a new one. However make sure you do a md5 check against the ISO as well.
[10:12] <OmniD> There's a file copying to an FTP server and it's 100% done but sitting there for way too long
[10:12] <OmniD> what should I do about this?
[10:12] <unamed> how can i shut down the X server?
[10:12] <bun-bun> Flannel# i'm pretty sure i have backports opened up, i don't see it in there
[10:12] <Gunslinger|Deags> mad did u get all that or u stumped too?
[10:13] <Bepo> racarr: onboard LAN Boot ROM?
[10:13] <Hellevator> unamed, do you want to shut down X server or just the GDM (graphical display)?
[10:13] <weiers> Hi, I am really frustrated with setting up my HP1020 laserjet printer. It stopped working a few days ago. It is a long story. I had it working on my wife's windows box and was able to print remotely. But then I nuked Windows and installed Edubuntu on her box. I got the printer to work, but then began fiddling with Samba to get the shares sorted out. The printer just stopped working.
[10:13] <starz> rausb0, i want something that has some good setup like the gnome but i just cant take it anymore and i dont like a few things about flux/black/etc/box
[10:13] <unamed> X server
[10:13] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, like Hellevator said, you probably have a bad burn. Did you check the md5sum before you burned the CD?
[10:13] <racarr> Bepo: No
[10:13] <Gunslinger|Deags> whats that
[10:13] <starz> what i wanted to do with icewm was have more slots for icons on the taskbar and a double tall taskbar so i could have more showing open windows...
[10:14] <Gunslinger|Deags> im sorry im so dumb on this im just starting and i heard this was the best flavor to start with
[10:14] <Madpilot> ubotu, md5sum | Gunslinger|Deags
[10:14] <ubotu> Gunslinger|Deags: To verify the authenticity of a downloaded ISO image.  Command:  md5sum /path/to/file.iso Windows users: http://slavasoft.com and grab Fsum 2.51 or also check: http://www.nullriver.com/index/products/winmd5sum
[10:14] <racarr> Bepo: Is this grub installation left over from SUSE?
[10:14] <Bepo> racarr: ok well i went into a device channel  where my hard disk is (Maxtor)
[10:14] <starz> i figured out how to add icons to the taskbar so thats good but im going to gut out this install or do a fresh install so that its not cluttered with crapola :P ;; but i either need rox or nautilus to do my desktop so i have icons and the like i think im going to have to do nautilus unfortunately !_!
[10:14] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM is better, actually.
[10:15] <Madpilot> it has Windows info too
[10:15] <Gunslinger|Deags> k
[10:15] <Gunslinger|Deags> getting it
[10:15] <unamed> Hellevator: X server
[10:15] <racarr> Bepo: It's probably a bios thing, not a hard drive thing, or a messed up partition table
[10:15] <Flannel> bun-bun: then your options are: upgrade to edgy, install firefox manually (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion), or stick with 1.5
[10:15] <racarr> Bepo: One more idea if you can't find LBA in your BIOS and the GRUB install is not left over from SUSE....check in /boot/grub/device.map
[10:15] <Bepo> racarr: yeah... No i'm pretty sure the SUSE loader went away
[10:15] <Pie-rate> well, this is an enormous pain in the ass. fnf, do you have any other suggestions to fix this?
[10:15] <weiers> I'm not getting printing to work: My cups error_log gives the following output:   cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found!
[10:16] <starz> rausb0, i just miss having a toolbar with lots of startup icons on it and wish i had one just for that... perhaps fbpanel could do something..... or something similar...
[10:16] <Madpilot> ubotu, no, md5sum is <reply>To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more
[10:16] <ubotu> I'll remember that, Madpilot
[10:16] <racarr> Bepo: You should see (hd0) /dev/sda in /boot/grub/device.map...
[10:16] <Hellevator> unamed, I'm actually not sure how to stop X server but I'm pretty sure just stopping the GDM is usually sufficient.  To stop the gdm type /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[10:16] <Gunslinger|Deags> where do i find what im suposed to compare it to
[10:17] <woodsb02> hey guys... can anybody help me set up mt-daap for itunes style sharing of my music between ubuntu boxes? apparently rhythmbox should pick it up automatically, but i just cant get it to see my other box's shares
[10:17] <Bepo> racarr: ok going back in
[10:17] <ajayme> ubotu : i install xp and then i install ubuntu  now i want to remove ubuntu what i do ? tell me
[10:17] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, the md5 files themselves are linked too from the page I gave you
[10:18] <Hellevator> lol ajayme, I'm not sure ubotu is that sophisticated.
[10:18] <Gunslinger|Deags> oo
[10:18] <Flannel> ajayme: you'll need to reinstall the windows bootloader, then just reformat whatever linux partitions you have.
[10:18] <Gunslinger|Deags> i didnt see that link thanks
[10:18] <Gumby> what are ubuntu users using these days to play windows media 9 files in their web browser?  Is it still w32codecs or is there another browser plugin that works?
[10:18] <tubo^bph> Heya all, i am experiencing trouble with my ipw3945 WLAN driver , it drops / reconnects me once every 60 min or so. I would like to reserach what kernel module options i could tweak but do not know how to get a list of all possible options, or where to put them - any clues?
[10:19] <ajayme>  Flannel: how i can reinstall bootloader
[10:19] <mneptok> Gumby: personally, i just ignore sites stupid enough to use Windows Media codecs ;)
[10:19] <Bepo> yup its that
[10:19] <Flannel> ajayme: you'll need a windows bootdisk (like your windows CD), then "fixmbr", I believe.
[10:19] <Gumby> mneptok: hehe
[10:19] <Bepo> racarr: yeah its there
[10:19] <racarr> tubo^bph: There aren't really any options to tweak specifically for the ipw3945 driver, however if you want to configure your kernel relatively easily you can run make xconfig in the kernel source tree
[10:19] <racarr> !kernel
[10:19] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[10:20] <racarr> Bepo: Pastebin it?
[10:20] <Gunslinger|Deags> how long does this normally take to load the iso in that program
[10:20] <erUSUL> !grub | ajayme
[10:20] <ubotu> ajayme: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:20] <iLLf8d> anyone using wake on lan features with linux?
[10:20] <Gunslinger|Deags> nm it just poped up
[10:20] <Gumby> man, I cant figure out what is up with my wifi.  Ive set it up multiple times before using both ndiswrapper and the bcm43xx-fwcutter but neither are working at all.  kinda strange
[10:20] <Flannel> erUSUL: wrong bootloader
[10:21] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok it says that they are the same mad
[10:21] <Hellevator> gumby, I've have mild success with this firefox plugin, https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/446/
[10:21] <Bep1> racarr: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38198/
[10:21] <tubo^bph> racarr, thanks. I was under the assumption there were options that could be passed into the driver, as i saw references to doing thast for ipw2200 - so you are saying this is not the case for ipw3945 then? Bummer.
[10:21] <woodsb02> anyone know how to use avahi and daap?
[10:21] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, OK, try another burn, then. Set your CD burner to go slower (6x or so) that seems to help w/ some burners
[10:21] <Gunslinger|Deags> okie :)
[10:21] <Gunslinger|Deags> one second
[10:22] <boguh> no cd covers for ubuntu?
[10:22] <racarr> tubo^bph: You mean at compile time? I ... don't think so I compiled it recently and didn't see anything...and that would be relatively unusual
[10:22] <racarr> tubo^bph: Do you mean ipw3945d the regulatory daemon?
[10:22] <Bep1> racarr: this is Bepo. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38198/
[10:22] <Gunslinger|Deags> ubuntu does fit on a cd-r right?
[10:22] <rkupv> Madpilot, Thanks for pointing me to Mediubuntu for w32codecs
[10:22] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: yep
[10:22] <racarr> Bep1: Mm.......
[10:22] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: well, as long as you grab the CD image, not the DVD one
[10:22] <Gunslinger|Deags> k cause i wanted to make sure i wasnt cutting it off
[10:23] <racarr> Bep1:I'm officially out of ideas...sorry...you could try reinstalling grub but I don't see any reason why that would fix things
[10:23] <Gunslinger|Deags> yea its deifnately not huge
[10:23] <Gunslinger|Deags> its 711mb
[10:23] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, yes, but you'll need 700Mb CDRs, not 650
[10:23] <Gunslinger|Deags> o crap really?
[10:23] <tubo^bph> racarr, yes you can configure kernel modules via modprobe.d , see your /etc/modprobe.d dir
[10:23] <Gunslinger|Deags> o
[10:23] <Gunslinger|Deags> nm these r 700
[10:23] <Pie-rate> When I hold down my down key, i randomly type a '-'. i can't live with this at all and i've been screwing around for ages trying to fix it. it happens in x only, not in a console. it happens in vim, pico, bash, gedit, gaim, gksudo, firefox, and probably everything else.
[10:23] <Bep1> racarr: does it matter ten when I installed I added some more drive space for XP partition?
[10:23] <Pie-rate> it just recently randomly started happening
[10:23] <tubo^bph> racarr, but i am at a loss what options are possible for ipw3945
[10:24] <Pie-rate> i've screwed with my xorg.conf, hasn't affected it.
[10:24] <racarr> tubo^bph: Yeah, I know, but again, not aware of anything for ipw3945...
[10:24] <Gunslinger|Deags> what burning program do you normally suggest ( preferably free ) for this operation maybe its my burning software?
[10:24] <racarr> Bep1: That could have caused it, but it shouldn't
[10:25] <Gunslinger|Deags> i use alcohol 120% now
[10:25] <Pie-rate> i've reverted everything i remember doing between the last time i remember it not happening and the first time it started happening
[10:25] <Pie-rate> it just won't go away
[10:25] <woodsb02> avahi + daap anyone? help?
[10:25] <Flannel> Gunslinger|Deags: burn at 4X
[10:25] <Bep1> racarr: so its either bios or grub
[10:25] <Bep1> if not would a fresh install of ubuntu kick it back into gear?
[10:26] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, anything that can handle .iso files properly; I don't run XP anymore so I'm not sure what works there
[10:26] <racarr> Bep1: No, I don't think so
[10:26] <racarr> Bep1: Windows then ubuntu probably
[10:26] <Hellevator> Gunslinger|Deags, alcohol 120% is fine.
[10:26] <racarr> Bep1: You could try ruunning fixmbr from a windows recovery console, then windows should boot
[10:26] <racarr> Bep1: Then reinstalling ubuntu
[10:26] <Bep1> racarr: I got some stuff in windows that i need to keep
[10:26] <racarr> Bep1: That would likely fix it
[10:27] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok ty
[10:27] <Bep1> racarr: how do i run fximbr?
[10:27] <Madpilot> back in a bit..
[10:27] <Pie-rate> i've tried everything i can think of and i've been complaining in here for hours and 1 person has given 1 suggestion that didn't help much. anyone else have a suggestion?
[10:27] <tubo^bph> racarr, ok, thanks for your help!
[10:28] <racarr> tubo^bph: Does anything show up in 'dmesg' after you lose connection?
[10:28] <Bep1> racarr: i dont mind reinstalling Ubuntu
[10:28] <tubo^bph> racarr, yup, but its not helpful
[10:28] <racarr> Bep1: I don't know, google around for 'windows recovery fixmbr' or something along those lines
[10:28] <FirstStrike> !apache
[10:28] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for 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 installation process (different in Edgy+)
[10:28] <tubo^bph> racarr, it says "wlan0 , link is down" thats it
[10:28] <mc44> Pie-rate: what keyboard layout are ou using?
[10:28] <Pie-rate> mc44: us english
[10:29] <tubo^bph> racarr, then it reconnects fine automagically via gnome-network-manager
[10:29] <mc44> Pie-rate: try "xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.us"
[10:29] <Gunslinger|Deags> k
[10:29] <racarr> tubo^bph: Mm do you know what version of the driver you are running?
[10:29] <Pie-rate> -------
[10:29] <Gunslinger|Deags> im burning 4x on a 16x drive :D but thats ok if it works ill be happy
[10:29] <Pie-rate> (that's a no)
[10:29] <Pie-rate> didn't work
[10:29] <racarr> tubo^bph: I don't know if it comes with ubuntu...but if it does it's probably 1.1.0 and 1.1.3 is out now
[10:30] <frosties> je vais redmarrer neptune
[10:30] <tubo^bph> racarr, thanks again. did you update yours? i run the one that comes with feisty at the moment.
[10:30] <Hellevator> Gunslinger|Deags, you are only at the first step.  Your in the process of learning that running Linux takes a lot of time and patience ;). this 4x burn is nothing.
[10:31] <racarr> tubo^bph: Yes I did you can get the new one at: http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/
[10:31] <Gunslinger|Deags> i have patience just need to get it installed before 8 am and its about 3 30 :P
[10:31] <Hellevator> Gunslinger|Deags, why the time limit?
[10:31] <racarr> tubo^bph: I am running 1.1.2...it's technically a 'development/snapshot release' but again excellent performance and if you are having poor performance now I would give it a shot
[10:32] <Gunslinger|Deags> family is coming and my mom said no extra computer drives and crap laying around haha
[10:32] <Gunslinger|Deags> and i got cds and stuff everywhere
[10:32] <Pie-rate> r
[10:33] <stabber> agentcooper, are you a homicide detective ?
[10:33] <racarr> tubo^bph: I'm sorry I can't give you anything more useful than 'try upgrading' but it could be so many different things ....
[10:33] <tubo^bph> racarr, is it difficult to update? just follow the usual make / install bla cycle?
[10:33] <Pie-rate> in showkey i can see it randomly giving some different scancodes while i have it held down
[10:33] <Gunslinger|Deags> i was trying to use fedora before this because i have actually installed that before but it has problems recognizing the core disk so i completely gave up on it and i heard ubuntu was 100000000 times better
[10:33] <Plouki> Hello everyone
[10:34] <racarr> tubo^bph: A bit more than that...you build the driver like normal
[10:34] <agentcooper> stabber: indeed, I stop by to see if the homicide on Debian makes ubuntu the future or not. :-)
[10:34] <Pie-rate> mc44: it didn't work
[10:34] <racarr> tubo^bph: Then copy the firmware to the kernel firmware directory, and the daemon to /usr/sbin, but the install guide is very detailed
[10:34] <Pie-rate> mc44: although now my enter key sometimes fails to work.
[10:34] <Pie-rate> oh and my start key is no longer mapped to mod4
[10:34] <racarr> tubo^bph: Once you've done that you can add the load script that comes with it to any sort of autostart to easily load it on boot
[10:35] <Pie-rate> and gnome is just generally screwed over it seems
[10:35] <Pie-rate> not only in the keyboard department
[10:35] <stabber> agentcooper do you confessions over the internet ?  i went to a club tonight...  he placed his body on my body and escorted me out.  when he stepped on my foot i stabbed him with a debian fork ;)
[10:35] <mc44> Pie-rate: have you tried playing with wettings in System -> Prefs -> keyboard
[10:36] <Pie-rate> this is why windows is still king, it has less of these incredibly strange problems with things that should be incredibly simple and just WORK
[10:36] <gyro_54> can anyone help with setup of a DTV 1000 tv card and tvtime?
[10:36] <agentcooper> stabber: :-) Sorry, I am not the maintainer of the confessions package
[10:36] <racarr> Pie-rate: It's all a matter of perspective...
[10:36] <racarr> Pie-rate: Coming from a heavy *nix background windows does a lot of strange things and doesn't just work
[10:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> all i know is if i had to use mac os everyday of my life id kill myself
[10:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> lol
[10:37] <stabber> a little electrical shock to the body ?
[10:37] <ThePub> Gunslinger|Deags: macos or osX?
[10:37] <Pie-rate> well, shit. unchecking "separate group for each window" in sys->prefs->keyboard->layouts fixed the problem
[10:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> either
[10:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> i hate them both
[10:38] <ThePub> Gunslinger|Deags: because if you believe that about macos I'll kill you gratis :)
[10:38] <racarr> Pie-rate: C/D/E drives? no physical files representing the devices? registry?  no X server? no chmod? have to restart to install stuff? it makes no sense to someone used to a linux or BSD system and would seem to 'not just work'
[10:38] <Gunslinger|Deags> haha
[10:38] <tubo^bph> racarr, thanks a lot
[10:38] <racarr> tubo^bph: No problem...hope it works...
[10:38] <mohlert1> anyone: how do i delete a folder that i created with "mkdir"?
[10:38] <David_> rmdir
[10:38] <racarr> mohlert1: rm -r folder
[10:38] <David_> either
[10:39] <racarr> rmdir will only delete if it's empty
[10:39] <David_> indeed
[10:39] <doug_h__> anyone interested in seeing a 2D representation of the social network in this channel?
[10:39] <David_> rm -rf if you're really confident
[10:39] <David_> :-)
[10:39] <mohlert1> Thank you both..
[10:39] <Gunslinger|Deags> so is ubuntu gonna be hard to install linux games on i have a few on a cd that id like to put on
[10:39] <doug_h__> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55Q4BwkkRQU
[10:39] <Pie-rate> racarr: no random screwups with the handling of the keyboard that causes an apparently unsolvable random keypress? no broken as hell drivers for everything?
[10:39] <Pie-rate> it'd be far easier to pick up
[10:40] <Pie-rate> than it is to pick up linux. yes, partly due to decreased complexity, but also partly due to things WORKING rather than failing 80%+ of the time
[10:40] <mc44> Pie-rate: this is offtopic for this channel
[10:40] <sn00p> How can I have static ip address for ubuntu box , I want it  to be 192.168.1.101 All the time can I have this?
[10:40] <ThePub> anyhow.. as I was saying.  I cannot honestly see how anyone who's used macos for very long as a primary desktop could despise it.  It's simple and gets out of your way.  Take away the obvious technical deficienies behind the scenes and you have a really top-notch UI with 20 years of research behind it.
[10:41] <Gunslinger|Deags> Pie-rate, the fact that you save 150$ to use ubuntu over windows should easily outweigh the fact that u have to put some work into it
[10:41] <Pie-rate> anyway, everything is still broken
[10:41] <Bepo> racarr: do i run fixboot first then fixmbr
[10:41] <mc44> ThePub: thats offtopic for this channel, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:41] <Bepo> racarr: or the other way around
[10:42] <racarr> Bepo: I think fixmbr, but I know basically nothing about anythingn relating to windows
[10:42] <racarr> Bepo: So I w*ould check with someone more authorative
[10:42] <Bepo> racarr: haha ok
[10:42] <ThePub> Gunslinger|Deags: depends on how much your time is worth.  It's not like you can't do everything you want in Windows, and even freely anymore.  OpenOffice, Gimp, Firefox, Cygwin.. all open source and free and working under windows.  :)
[10:42] <Bepo> anyone here know?
[10:42] <doug_h__> Bepo: fixmbr will replace the mbr fixboot fixes your boot.ini file
[10:42] <Bepo> does it matter which i run first?
[10:42] <racarr> ThePub: Besides the interface it's not that great...and even the interface isn't wonderful
[10:42] <neurotech> Hi there, I've got a problem with my Ubuntu 6.06 setup where xvinfo cannot find any adaptors, therefore causing video to be pixellated when viewed fullscreen. I have a Radeon X800XL using the fglrx drivers. Can anyone help me?
[10:42] <doug_h__> Bepo: run fixmbr first then fixboot and all should be well
[10:43] <Pie-rate> gunslinger|deags: that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard. I had to put in at LEAST 14 hours of work to get ubuntu working to the point where i could do ALMOST everything i could do.
[10:43] <Pie-rate> now it's broken and i have to try to fix it
[10:43] <Gunslinger|Deags> Thepub , ya your time id definately worth something but at the same time having the knowledge of ubuntu and that is usually worth a persons time to begin with
[10:43] <Pie-rate> anyway, i've been told this is offtopic and i won't continue it
[10:44] <ThePub> Pie-rate: yes.. respond and be scolded.  it's an interesting world :)
[10:44] <doug_h> meh i only use linux for my web server
[10:44] <doug_h> which works nicely btw
[10:44] <doug_h> low maintenance and quick to setup
[10:44] <ThePub> neurotech: do you have the video overly enabled in fglrx? :)
[10:44] <Bepo> doug_h: oh crap its says A disk read error occured
[10:44] <racarr> ThePub: You also definetly can't do everything you want in Windows that you can do in Linux...
[10:44] <mc44> Pie-rate: "everything is still broken" -? like what
[10:44] <doug_h> give the entire error message Bepo
[10:44] <neurotech> How do I do that, ThePub?
[10:45] <mc44> racarr: please take it to -offtopic
[10:45] <racarr> mc44: Eh, not that important, but you are right it's offtopic
[10:45] <doug_h> Bepo: give the full error message
[10:45] <ThePub> neurotech: I'd highly suggest a read of "aticonfig --help"  it's the --overlay-(something)=on  (I think)
[10:45] <Gunslinger|Deags> o comon mc44 :P its 345 am cst
[10:45] <Gunslinger|Deags> :D
[10:45] <Bepo> doug_h: thats exactly it: A disk read error occured ctrl+alt+del to restart
[10:46] <doug_h> Bepo: is this before or after running fixboot or fixmbr?
[10:46] <ubuntu> I want to install ubuntu on my little home server. is there anyway, how I can take my qmail configuration and all the mails with me?
[10:46] <mc44> Gunslinger|Deags: er. its the morning in Europe, and people still need help
[10:46] <Bepo> doug_h its after running both
[10:46] <Gunslinger|Deags> hehe yea true true
[10:46] <doug_h> Bepo: after restarting?
[10:46] <Bepo> dough_h yup restarting
[10:46] <ThePub> racarr: true, like track down bugs with something as simple as mime types in nautilus :)
[10:46] <sushi_> Hi what are some other 3D drivers for my ATI video card ?  I heard of fglrx but I heard there was other ones
[10:46] <ChevronX> Whats the best screen capture software I can just apt-get
[10:46] <doug_h> Bepo: do you have multiple hard drives?
[10:47] <racarr> sushi_: Which card?
[10:47] <Bepo> doug_h: just one
[10:47] <sushi_> ATI Mobility x9600
[10:47] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, this is a very international channel. It's always someone's 'busy' time :)
[10:47] <ubuntu> I want to install ubuntu on my little home server. is there anyway, how I can take my qmail configuration and all the mails with me?
[10:47] <sushi_> a pretty popular newish card
[10:47] <Pie-rate> eh. keyboard problem is back, that didn't actually fix it.
[10:47] <ThePub> sushi_: the only "other" one would be the open source driver and it's not quite as good in most peoples eyes at 3d.
[10:47] <ThePub> sushi_: either way you're going to find that ATI and Linux is really hit-or-miss.
[10:47] <sushi_> ThePub Isnt there like a Meso3D or something?
[10:48] <Gunslinger|Deags> yea unless your on the internet these days you tend to forget how people in other countries are just as busy as you
[10:48] <racarr> sushi_: I don't think you will get direct rendering on that without FGLRX
[10:48] <ChevronX> Whats the best screen capture software I can just apt-get
[10:48] <racarr> sushi_: Mesa is an implementation of OpenGL
[10:48] <David_> snoop: you can do that in System->Administration->Networking
[10:48] <ThePub> sushi_: rever to what racarr said.
[10:48] <ThePub> sushi_: although, you can get direct rendering and composting in the open source driver, it's just not great.  :)
[10:48] <racarr> sushi_: And for example the r300 driver enables direct rendering for ATI cards using the r300 chipset through the mesa libraries
[10:49] <sushi_> racarr: dont I need OpenGL in order to do some 3D stuff?   See my problem is that I failed the 3D part of Cedega... but fglrx seems to be working
[10:49] <Madpilot> ChevronX, for simple screencaps, just hit the Print Screen button on your kb
[10:49] <ChevronX> Sorry, I want to take movies of whats on my screen
[10:49] <ThePub> sushi_: what does fglrxinfo say is your vendor?
[10:49] <racarr> sushi_: For your card flgrx is the only option to get direct rendering / 3D acceleration
[10:49] <sushi_> ati
[10:49] <ThePub> sushi_: then you're working.  take it up with cedega :)
[10:49] <doug_h> Bepo: you there still?
[10:49] <sushi_> yep
[10:50] <David_> sushi: not running Xgl/Beryl?
[10:50] <ThePub> racarr: that isn't true.
[10:50] <Madpilot> ChevronX, have a look at istanbul
[10:50] <Bepo> doug_h: yeah
[10:50] <doug_h> Bepo: how many partitions are there on the drive?
[10:50] <sushi_> David I couldn't get beryl to work... messed up my display
[10:50] <ChevronX> Thanks, apt getting now
[10:50] <racarr> ThePub: Are you sure? the open  source drive has DRI for r200...r300...and uh...one other chipset
[10:50] <Bepo> doug_h: theres ntsf, ext3, extension, and swap
[10:50] <sushi_> XGL is pre-configured for me
[10:50] <Bepo> dough so 4?
[10:51] <doug_h> bepo: in what order?
[10:51] <ThePub> sushi_: beryl has to be run under xgl if you're fglrx
[10:51] <racarr> ThePub:  Well, different drivers, but the radeon driver wraps them, but I don't think his card is any of those
[10:51] <sushi_> Do I need some sort of OpenGL thing like Mesa3d?
[10:51] <Bepo> doug_h in that exact order
[10:51] <David_> sushi: If you're running Xgl on top of the x-server
[10:51] <David_> then cedega will fail 3d test
[10:51] <David_> even if FGLRX driver is working
[10:51] <David_> you need the nonXgl script
[10:51] <Gunslinger|Deags> Madpilot, i take it after the burn process is complete i should try this new 4x cd?
[10:52] <doug_h> Bepo: Did you do the fixmbr and fixboot from the recovery console?
[10:52] <sushi_> David are you serious?
[10:52] <ThePub> racarr: you might be right, but I thought the support for the mobility chipset offered direct rendering on the newer ones.  I'm probably wrong.
[10:52] <David_> sushi: http://www.getautomatix.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php?t133.html
[10:52] <sushi_> David where do I get this magic script
[10:52] <sushi_> thanks
[10:52] <David_> np
[10:52] <ThePub> sushi_: he's serious.  Xgl removes the ability to directly render to the screen.
[10:52] <Bepo> dough yeah i did
[10:52] <racarr> ThePub: No, you are right actually, it's an R300 chipset
[10:52] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, yes - and still, run the 'Check CD' option on the CD's menu
[10:52] <sushi_> I'm gonna buy myself a GeForce for christmas =\
[10:52] <doug_h> Bepo: hmm so you're trying to get NTLDR reinstalled?
[10:52] <Gunslinger|Deags> ok
[10:52] <Madpilot> David_, please don't recommend Automatix in this channel...
[10:53] <David_> First link I found
[10:53] <flux_> \j #svele
[10:53] <flux_> ops
[10:53] <sushi_> ThePub and I'm forced to use XGL because I have to use fglrx?
[10:53] <ThePub> sushi_: as a technical point.. Xgl sets up an alternate server for the card to render to, then those images are composted together onto your display so that you get all those nifty grpahics you think you need :)
[10:53] <Bepo> doug_h I'm just trying to get windows to start again, cuz i need the stuff in there
[10:53] <racarr> sushi_: No, you don't need XGL
[10:53] <flux_> \server irc.undernet.org
[10:53] <David_> sushi: especially not if you're not running beryl
[10:53] <racarr> sushi: If you want to use something like Beryl or Compiz, with FGLRx, then y ou need to use OpenGL
[10:53] <ThePub> sushi_: no.. xgl is just a means to an end to run beryl/compiz.  you by no means need it.
[10:53] <doug_h> Bepo: did GRUB not boot windows?
[10:53] <mc44> ThePub: think? know I need :)
[10:54] <sushi_> Oh but some guide I read said that it is pre-configured into Edgy
[10:54] <mc44> sushi_: no thats aiglx
[10:54] <mohlert1> anyone: how can i create a new folder within the windows browse?  Is mkrdir the only way to make a new folder?
[10:54] <ThePub> mc44: ok, ok.. throw my sarcasm back at me.  it's 4am and I'm tired :)
[10:54] <mc44> sushi_: which doesnt work with ati
[10:54] <sushi_> mc44 oh yeah thats right
[10:54] <rcrook> Ok, got a sensors problem. it keeps telling me it cant read the i2c detail from /sys... I can so I am not sure why it cant. I do have all the appropriate modules loaded but it is still complaining. any ideas?
[10:54] <Gunslinger|Deags> wooo im getting farther then before at least things are being oked
[10:54] <Gunslinger|Deags> thats a good sign
[10:54] <racarr> sushi_: But if glxinfo says you have direct rendering AIGLX isn't on either
[10:54] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, the PC you're trying the liveCD on - how much RAM does it have?
[10:54] <mc44> racarr: right, he has ati so it cant work
[10:55] <Gunslinger|Deags> 1 gig
[10:55] <Bepo> doug_h that was the problem it didnt boot it... I kept getting the root (hd0,0)  Filesystem type unknown Partition type 0x7
[10:55] <sushi_> fuck ati
[10:55] <mc44> sushi_: please dont sweart
[10:55] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, good, that'll run the LiveCD very nicely.
[10:55] <ThePub> racarr: mc44: what mc said.. fglrx doesn't support either aiglx or composite.
[10:55] <doug_h> Bepo: oi
[10:55] <sushi_> sorry its late
[10:55] <Bepo> doug-h now Grub wont load at all
[10:55] <rcrook> I could think of lots of others I would prefer have sex with
[10:55] <racarr> sushi_: But you don't need aiglx or composite to use what you are trying to do
[10:55] <Gunslinger|Deags> thats good
[10:55] <Pie-rate> every once in a while i'm going to hold down my down arrow key and post it.
[10:55] <Pie-rate> --
[10:56] <Bepo> doug-h now it says A disk read error occured, restart
[10:56] <doug_h> Bepo: lol yes thats right you erased it, ubuntu by default installs grub on the MBR and you ran fixmbr which replaces the mbr with NTLDR
[10:56] <ThePub> sushi_: if this is a new computer and you want the best possible support of the NEW (they still are fiarly new) X standards.. you need to return it and get something with nVidia ;)
[10:56] <mohlert1>  anyone: New to Edgy and Linux -- how can i create a new folder within the windows browse?  Is mkrdir the only way to make a new folder?
[10:56] <racarr> pie-rate: http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/xmodmap.1.html ?
[10:56] <ThePub> mohlert1: eh?
[10:56] <Bepo> doug_h... ah.. lol so any posibility of getting windows to run?
[10:56] <doug_h> Bepo: go into the recovery console again and run a chkdsk, then use the help command to find the scan program that finds current installs
[10:56] <sushi_> ThePub yeah it's a Dell laptop
[10:56] <mc44> Pie-rate: please dont do that
[10:57] <Pie-rate> ----
[10:57] <doug_h> Bepo: plenty of possibility it's just a little ugly
[10:57] <Pie-rate> xmodmap didn't help
[10:57] <ThePub> sushi_: linux != windows.  if you want to do anything fancy with desktop linux you really have to do some research on the hardware before you buy.
[10:57] <racarr> pie-rate: What did you try?
[10:57] <Bepo> doug_ h: ah ok thanks for the help :/
[10:57] <Pie-rate> you know the things seem to coincide with messages coming in on irc/gaim
[10:58] <racarr> sushi_: You s aid you were trying to play GAMES though right?
[10:58] <Pie-rate> perhaps network activity?
[10:58] <racarr> Pie-rate: What exactly is the problem I missed the beginning
[10:58] <ThePub> sushi_: my understanding is that the nvidia driver atm supports all the stuff that holds ATI back.  namely compositing and aiglx.. so it can do compiz/beryl and dri w/o indirect operations.
[10:58] <Bepo> doug_ h: now if i do get windows running can you tell me how to partition it correctly? lol cuz i know this works... its worked before
[10:58] <racarr> sushi_: You do NOT need AIGLX or Composite for games and your ATI fglrx driver will be fine
[10:58] <Pie-rate> when i hold down my down arrow key it will *randomly* type out a -
[10:58] <Bepo> doug_ h: duall booting that is
[10:59] <Pie-rate> like this: ----
[10:59] <Bepo> doug_ h: one step at a time though I guess haha
[10:59] <racarr> sushi_: If you want 3D acceleration AND AIGLX you can use the 'radeon' driver, but it will be slower
[10:59] <Pie-rate> it also seems to coincide with either network activity or messages coming in on gaim
[10:59] <doug_h> Bepo: yeah sure, once you get NTLDR running again and into windows, i'll just help you through installing GRUB manually on the root partition for ubuntu
[10:59] <doug_h> Bepo: and then we'll just chainload it from NTLDR
[10:59] <tubo^bph> racarr, worked a treat :-)  ipw3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945 Network Connection driver for Linux, 1.1.3mp
[10:59] <Bepo> doug_ h: k thanks :)
[10:59] <racarr> pie-rate: Anything interesting show up in dmesg after it happens?
[10:59] <tubo^bph> racarr, thanks again, now lets see if the drops are gone....
[10:59] <doug_h> Bepo: i've done it several times and it works nicely after it's all done
[10:59] <Gunslinger|Deags> Madpilot ok it says check finished 0 checksums failed so i can restart then
[10:59] <tux> hi how to write usb drivers for cable modem?
[11:00] <Invisible_> hi i m trying to create a firewall on ubuntu box, with the tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu6.06_firewall_gateway_p2
[11:00] <racarr> tubo^bph: Hopefully! it's actually been a really nicce chipset for me
[11:00] <Invisible_> and when i do http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu6.06_firewall_gateway_p2 it says "E: Couldn't find package libauthen-pam-perl"
[11:00] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, sounds good, it should boot into the LiveCD now. Have fun!
[11:00] <Gunslinger|Deags> sweet
[11:00] <Bepo> doug_ h: how do you know all this! you guys are like geniuses is there a book for all this stuff?
[11:00] <Invisible_> any help?
[11:00] <ThePub> tux: learn C, read up on the linux API, learn the specifications for your modem and go hog wild!
[11:00] <tubo^bph> racarr, it seems to only be troubles on SMP kernels, but maybe they fixed that
[11:00] <Pie-rate> racarr: no, nothing.
[11:00] <Bepo> doug_ h: is your PM box working?
[11:00] <mc44> !universe | Invisible_
[11:00] <tux> ThePub, any related sites?
[11:00] <ubotu> Invisible_: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:00] <racarr> tubo^bph: I am running it on an SMP kernel...
[11:00] <Bepo> doug_ h: ive been trying to send you messages there
[11:01] <doug_h> i'm not getting anything
[11:01] <Pie-rate> racarr: it only happens in X
[11:01] <rcrook> sensors? anyone?
[11:01] <Gunslinger|Deags> ima make sure this works before i thank u over and over :P
[11:01] <mc44> Invisible_: you need to enable universe
[11:01] <doug_h> yeah i sent you some stuff too and nothing happened
[11:01] <ThePub> tux: sorry, don't know of anything to teach you that in 15 minutes.
[11:01] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, fair enough :)
[11:01] <Bepo> doug_ h: i see your messages
[11:01] <sushi_> racarr without direct rendering    my movies play at a slow framerate =\
[11:01] <Bepo> doug_ h: you just dont see mine O.o
[11:01] <doug_h> odd
[11:01] <Bepo> doug_ h: ok well i ran chkdsk
[11:02] <doug_h> let me get on mirc
[11:02] <tux> ThePub, i know c little but dont know where to start writing driver
[11:02] <racarr> sushi_: But you said you had direct rendering
[11:02] <Pie-rate> racarr: it only happens when there's load on the CPU
[11:02] <Gunslinger|Deags> i can install this to my hard drive for good right i dont always have to boot from the cd right?
[11:02] <racarr> tux: Read the documentation in the kernel source tree
[11:02] <racarr> Pie-rate: Thinking
[11:02] <racarr> tux: Just a second, I can point you at some specific files
[11:02] <sushi_> racarr: yeah and the only way i can get beryl to do anything is when i turn on compositing ...
[11:02] <tubo^bph> racarr, sweet - then lets see how i do :-)
[11:03] <tux> racarr, yah
[11:03] <racarr> sushi_: Try the 'radeon' driver
[11:03] <Kesman> Gunslinger|Deags: yeah you can
[11:03] <mohlert1> anyone: is "mkdir" inside the terminal the only way to create a new folder?
[11:03] <racarr> sushi_: Performance will not be as good, but you can get direct rendering AND compositing
[11:03] <Pie-rate> racarr: for example if i hold it down and then scroll my IRC window up and down it makes a lot more '-'s
[11:03] <racarr> sushi_: And beryl shohuld run acceptably
[11:03] <David_> mohlert: in the terminal yes
[11:03] <Pie-rate> like so: ----------------
[11:03] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, yes, once you're in the LiveCD there's an "Install" icon right on the desktop
[11:04] <sushi_> I found a really good guide for my laptop and ubuntu: http://lhansen.blogspot.com/2006/10/3d-desktop-beryl-and-xgl-on-ubuntu-edgy.html
[11:04] <David_> in Gnome just choose File->New Folder
[11:04] <mohlert1> anyone: nevermind............
[11:04] <tux> racarr, pls make it fast...
[11:05] <Tomcat_> sushi_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BerylOnEdgy <--- Much easier? :)
[11:05] <ReTyPe> how do i play an mp3 ?? seems like there is no codec ?
[11:05] <racarr> sushi_: You will fail the 3d test you wanted to pass every time with XGL
[11:05] <doug_h> Bepo: you get my pm?
[11:05] <Bepo> doug_ h: nope
[11:05] <racarr> sushi_: Just a second, this channel is busy, going to send you a PM
[11:05] <doug_h> odd
[11:05] <Madpilot> ubotu, mp3 | ReTyPe
[11:05] <ubotu> ReTyPe: 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
[11:05] <Bepo> doug_ h: I PMed you though
[11:05] <doug_h> i'm not getting anything
[11:05] <Madpilot> ReTyPe, by default, Ubuntu doesn't play mp3 - see the URLs the bot just gave you
[11:05] <doug_h> this is wierd
[11:06] <mohlert1> anyone: I am new to linux and was wondering if any of you know a nice alternative to the "vongo" movie download service that I used on xp?  Vongo works with winows DRM so it can't be used in Edgy Linux (that I know of)
[11:06] <Bepo> doug_ h: I ran chkdsk
[11:06] <ReTyPe> i know, i have a lot of mp3s, but if i have to make them myself i use flac
[11:06] <doug_h> Bepo: run help, there should be something about scan or find installs
[11:07] <Pie-rate> racarr: think of anything?
[11:08] <tux> racarr, hi.. i think u forgot...
[11:08] <mohlert1> Anyone:  do you know of a good subscription based movie download service for Ubuntu 6.10
[11:08] <Bepo> Doug: well when i typed help i just see a list
[11:09] <sarikan> hi, 6.10 does not let me to set it up over existing drapper installation
[11:09] <racarr> tux: No sorry just busy
[11:09] <doug_h> Bepo: ok i'm looking up something real quick
[11:09] <sarikan> It chooses the / and swap in the existing installation but then complains about no root partition exists...
[11:10] <sarikan> any ideas?
[11:10] <racarr> tux: in the kernel source tree drivers/net/sb1000.c is a cable modem driver
[11:10] <racarr> Pie-rate: No sorry
[11:10] <Bepo> doug_h: when I ran chkdsk it said The volume appears to be in good condiion and was not checked. Use /p if you want to the volume anyway.
[11:10] <Pie-rate> uggh.
[11:11] <racarr> sushi_: Did you dissapear?
[11:11] <mohlert1> Does anyone know what "Vongo" (www.vongo.com) is and what an acceptable alternative for Linux would be?
[11:11] <doug_h> Bepo: try it with the /p parameter
[11:12] <Bepo> doug_h: so what do i type in? chkdsk /p
[11:12] <Gumby_> can anyone here remind me of the applet that sits in the tasktray allowing you to connect to wireless access points and enable/disable wireless/wired network connections
[11:12] <Alzi2> Hey. My computer has become REALLY slow. If i log in, GNOME takes up to 10 seconds to boot, and then the panel takes another 10 seconds or so. This is a fairly fast computer. So what is wrong with GNOME? never had this with KDE... How to fix this? every time i use gnome, over time it becomes REALLY slow.
[11:12] <doug_h> Bepo: try bootcfg
[11:12] <Bepo> doug_h: ah there it goes i typed in the chkdsk /p
[11:12] <racarr> Gumpy_: network manager plus knetwork-manager and or gnome-network-manager or some variation of such?
[11:12] <mc44> Pie-rate: try running xev in a terminal and seeing what it says when you press down
[11:12] <doug_h> Bepo: bootcfg /scan
[11:13] <tux> racarr, thnx
[11:13] <Gumby_> racarr: I'll have a look thx
[11:13] <Bepo> doug_h: ill let you know when it stops scanning and run the command you have above
[11:13] <racarr> tux: If you already feel comfortable with C and just want to learn about the kernel because you need to write a USB cable modem driver
[11:14] <racarr> tux: 'Linux Kernel Development' - 'Robert Love' is a decent book , if that's your kind of thing
[11:14] <rcrook> sigh.... con not get sensors working
[11:14] <tejinder> can anyone send me edgy xorg.conf?
[11:14] <Pie-rate> well it prints out about a page of stuff when i press it down
[11:14] <macalex> Anyone know if it is possible to install ubuntu 6.05 on the same disk where windows already installed and has ntfs, will ubuntu installer manage partitions without damage ntfs with windows?
[11:14] <doug_h> Bepo: when the thing finishes run bootcfg /rebuild
[11:14] <mc44> tejinder: why do you need one?
[11:14] <racarr> tejinder: If you lost yours you can run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and a  wizard will generate one for you
[11:15] <ReTyPe> how do i enable surround sound on my 5.1 system ?
[11:15] <Bepo> doug_h: after I run bootcfg /scan right?
[11:15] <tejinder> racarr: the fonts paths are incorrect
[11:15] <Alzi2> Anyone?
[11:15] <Pie-rate> but here, i just tapped it and it gave a - event: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38199/
[11:15] <tux> racarr, any related sites for that?
[11:15] <mc44> Pie-rate: yes, does it say give you a consistent keycode 104?
[11:15] <doug_h> Bepo: nah run bootcfg /rebuild only
[11:15] <tux> racarr, ubuntu..
[11:15] <Bepo> doug_h: ok its going
[11:15] <racarr> tux: ?
[11:16] <Pie-rate> mc44: no. it gives an 82 when it does a -
[11:16] <racarr> tux: http://kernelnewbies.org/ is a good place to start kernel development
[11:16] <Bepo> doug_h: scanning all disks for windows installation
[11:16] <racarr> tux: But unless you have been programming for a long time in C don't expect to be able to write a driver anytime soon
[11:16] <Gumby_> tejinder: sure, one sec. I'll post it
[11:16] <mc44> Pie-rate: ok, thats rather odd. Are you sure its not a hardware failure :)
[11:16] <Pie-rate> mc44: absolutely.
[11:17] <racarr> Pie-rate: If you have some key you don't want
[11:17] <Pie-rate> for starters it only happens when there's load on the cpu
[11:17] <Gumby_> whoops, who was looking for that xorg.conf?
[11:17] <racarr> Pie-rate: You could map 82 to down
[11:17] <petal> macalex: you're on the safe side if you preconfigure your partitions on that disk with .. say PartitionMagic under Windows. Make the partition layout from there if you do not trust the ubuntu-installer.
[11:17] <racarr> Pie-rate: and something else to -
[11:17] <tejinder> Gumby_: me
[11:17] <Pie-rate> racarr: that'd map - to down
[11:17] <Gumby_> edgy xorg.conf here  --->  http://rafb.net/paste/results/hU96xG10.html
[11:17] <tux> racarr, thank u
[11:17] <Alzi2> hello?
[11:17] <racarr> pie-rate: Something else you don't want
[11:17] <Alzi2> Hey. My computer has become REALLY slow. If i log in, GNOME takes up to 10 seconds to boot, and then the panel takes another 10 seconds or so. This is a fairly fast computer. So what is wrong with GNOME? never had this with KDE... How to fix this? every time i use gnome, over time it becomes REALLY slow.
[11:17] <Gumby_> there ya go tejinder
[11:17] <tejinder> Gumby_: thanks a lot
[11:17] <racarr> pie-rate: Yes, but you can map something else you don't want to -
[11:17] <Pie-rate> racarr: that'd a dirty hack and there'd still be unwanted keypresses in there
[11:17] <Gunslinger|Deags> it looks to be installing Madpilot =P =) ty very much and if there is anything i can ever do for you let me knowi plan to try and hang out and pass on what knowledge i learn to others as well ty very much
[11:18] <Pie-rate> that'd screw up everything anyway
[11:18] <Gumby_> speaking of which, time to get my radeon card setup properly
[11:18] <racarr> Sounds like a hardware failure :\
[11:18] <Pie-rate> i suppose its possible its a hardware error
[11:18] <Bepo> doug_h: Add installation to boot list?
[11:18] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, glad it worked, welcome to Ubuntu
[11:18] <Pie-rate> i'll go grab another keyboard
[11:18] <doug_h> Bepo: is there only one?
[11:18] <Bepo> doug_h: yup just one
[11:18] <doug_h> Bepo: yeah then go for it
[11:18] <doug_h> Bepo: try restarting after this
[11:18] <Bepo> doug_h: enter load identifier?
[11:19] <doug_h> ?
[11:19] <tux> racarr, thank u very much
[11:19] <Bepo> doug_h: lol i have no idea what that means
[11:19] <racarr> tux: No problem...Kernel Janitors also has a good list of tasks for people new to the kernel to work on to help them get familiar with the cod.e..
[11:19] <doug_h> just press enter?
[11:19] <doug_h> i've never seen it before
[11:20] <mohlert1> anyone:  what is wine? can i use it to run windows apps?  or is there a way to virtual run windows apps?
[11:20] <Bepo> doug_h: it jumped back to c:\windows>
[11:20] <doug_h> Bepo: ok
[11:20] <racarr> mohlrty2: Wine is an implementation of a lot of the core window libraries for *nix systems, you can use it to run some windows apps
[11:20] <racarr> mohlert1: * ^^
[11:20] <doug_h> Bepo: go ahead and restart then report back with the damage done
[11:20] <diskus> mohlert1: not all apps
[11:20] <Gunslinger|Deags> wine isnt the good one correct?
[11:21] <Bepo> I jdoug_h: i just pushed 1 for Enter load identifier, and it asked ENter 0s Load options:
[11:21] <Gunslinger|Deags> is there not another better one?
[11:21] <Pie-rate> yeah i guess it was a hardware problem
[11:21] <Bepo> doug_h: k rebooting
[11:21] <diskus> Gunslinger|Deags: there's cedega but it's mainly for games
[11:21] <mc44> Gunslinger|Deags: no one is the correct one
[11:21] <Pie-rate> i'll try shaking the other keyboard for a good 5 minutes
[11:21] <mc44> Pie-rate: :)
[11:21] <diskus> Gunslinger|Deags: and it's based on wine
[11:21] <Bepo> doug_h: yeah it did nothing
[11:21] <doug_h> Bepo: same thing?
[11:21] <Gunslinger|Deags> ahh so the correct thing to do is get all of them?
[11:22] <mc44> Pie-rate: see linux loves you :)
[11:22] <Bepo> doug_h: i think i actually have to put in values for those things they asked
[11:22] <doug_h> Bepo: not likely
[11:22] <doug_h> Bepo: when booting go into the bios
[11:22] <Pie-rate> although this other keyboard is USB, it could be a problem with PS2 only.
[11:22] <mohlert1> racarr: okay --- basically I want to run "vongo" which is a movie download service for windows on my Edgy machine.  You think I can do that with wine?
[11:22] <doug_h> Bepo: and look through the device boot order
[11:22] <Pie-rate> of course, i should switch to usb anyawy
[11:22] <Pie-rate> anyway*
[11:22] <doug_h> Bepo: make sure thats right
[11:22] <ReTyPe> what do i need for surround sound ? alsa ?
[11:23] <macalex> Never have done this with windows already installed. I have a friends notebook with windows already but he wants to try ubuntu, there is a 40gb hd and i choose automatic partition management in ubuntu installer, but it gives me 29gb mark. I don't get it what is that? I have 20gb used and about 16 free. So he will leave 29 for windows? And the rest will put for ubuntu?
[11:23] <mc44> Pie-rate: yes. it probably is a problem with ps2
[11:23] <Bepo> doug_h: that should be under boot device priority right?
[11:23] <doug_h> Bepo: yes indeed
[11:23] <Pie-rate> mc44: why would it be?
[11:23] <Pie-rate> mc44: it could be a problem with the keyboard not the interface
[11:24] <mc44> Pie-rate: but you were convinced it wasnt hardware
[11:24] <Bepo> doug_h: 1st boot Device floopy group( i have no floppy), 2nd boot device CDROM, 3rd Harddrive, 4th Network Boot Group
[11:24] <racarr> mohlert1: It's really a hit or miss thing, you can try
[11:24] <racarr> mohlert1: www.winehq.com should have everything you need
[11:24] <doug_h> Bepo: move cdrom to the top hdd 2nd and then network 3rd floppy last
[11:24] <mc44> Pie-rate: I mean it might be the keyboard, I just thought I read youd tried the keyboard in another computer
[11:24] <doug_h> Bepo: then when you restart press the key to get into the boot menu
[11:25] <mohlert1> racarr: thank you ----- you wouldn't happen to know of a good subscription based movie download site that works with linux would you?
[11:25] <racarr> mohlert1: No, sorry :( if you really can't live without it
[11:25] <simonvc> @mo easynews.com :-) works for me...
[11:26] <racarr> mohlert1: and it doesn't wowrk with wine look in to KML or Xen (for hardware with VT) or Q/KQEMU/VMWARE (for non vt hardware, or just easier) to run windows inside of linux
[11:26] <racarr> uh...not KML...I spliced two acronyms...
[11:26] <Pie-rate> well, i'll buy a new keyboard from work tomorrow, i can probably put up with it for 1 day.
[11:26] <Bepo> doug_h: in boot menu
[11:26] <Bepo> doug_h: maxtor is my drive
[11:26] <doug_h> Bepoo: tell me what is listed
[11:26] <Gunslinger|Deags> question is there anyway i can change my top and bottom bars to being a dark grey color
[11:26] <racarr> mohlert1: KVM not KML
[11:27] <Bepo> doug_h: PM-Maxtor, 3M-HP DVD Writer, 3s-asus dvd
[11:27] <Pie-rate> can probably get a nice deal on one too, employee discount :)
[11:27] <wasabi_> is there a fix for the frostwire blank screen?
[11:27] <doug_h> Bepo: do PM-Maxtor
[11:27] <Bepo> doug_h: same error
[11:27] <Pie-rate> i don't work in a computer store for the pay, i do it for the discount hehe
[11:27] <doug_h> hmm
[11:27] <Pie-rate> well, both kinda
[11:28] <doug_h> Bepo: hmm sounds like you may not get back into windows
[11:28] <doug_h> Bepo: try doing a repair install
[11:28] <opie> just install ubuntu yesterday...
[11:28] <opie> I LOVE ubuntu
[11:28] <chachi88> I cant log in at all it freezes up as soon as i type in my password
[11:28] <Bepo> doug_h: ok doing it now
[11:28] <opie> the best linux ever
[11:29] <doug_h> opie thats arguable
[11:29] <doug_h> and pretty vague
[11:29] <opie> Ubuntu BOLEH !!!!!
[11:29] <mc44> doug_h: and not for discussion here :)
[11:29] <doug_h> mc44: of course
[11:29] <Gunslinger|Deags> does noone know how to change the color of the top and bottom bars?
[11:30] <chachi88> can any one help me at all
[11:30] <chrisnias> i love ubuntu too, im particularly happy since i just managed to get online at the airport with it!!!
[11:30] <mc44> doug_h: well i think he made his point well :)
[11:30] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, change themes
[11:30] <Gunslinger|Deags> how do i go about that
[11:30] <doug_h> mc44: to each his own
[11:30] <Gunslinger|Deags> sorry im totally newb :(
[11:31] <chrisnias> one point that is not made clear though - if u select networking from admin menu, it doesnt prompt for sudo access. so you change stuff, and it doesnt tell you that actually it is ignoring your requests
[11:31] <chrisnias> realised i had to do sudo network-admin
[11:31] <mc44> doug_h: I meant saying that then running away, but yes indeed
[11:31] <Gunslinger|Deags> found it
[11:32] <doug_h> mc44: only way i know of to avoid an argument (or more commonly known as a discussion)
[11:32] <Madpilot> ubotu, themes | Gunslinger|Deags
[11:32] <ubotu> Gunslinger|Deags: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://kdelook.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[11:32] <Gunslinger|Deags> ahh
[11:32] <Gunslinger|Deags> i got to burn them to cd to get them over there then?
[11:32] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, last URL in the bot's list ^^^
[11:32] <dsafda> hi guys, could you help me with TTF anti-aliasing? I would try to disable the anti-aliasing only for *one* type of TTF, I have a Sans Serif as general TTF, and other TTF for menu bar, desktop items, etc, I'd like to have anti-aliasing on everything but *not* on the Sans Serif, that is perfect without anti-aliasing, could you help me?
[11:33] <Madpilot> no, Ubuntu comes with a bunch of themes pre-installed
[11:33] <Gunslinger|Deags> is my flash drive going to be recognized by ubuntu
[11:33] <Gunslinger|Deags> cause i do have one of those that would make things alot easier
[11:33] <doug_h> Gunslinger|Deags: more than likely yes
[11:33] <Gunslinger|Deags> okie
[11:34] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, it should just work - plug it in, you'll get a nice popup
[11:35] <doug_h> anyone have any objection to a non-ubuntu user offering support in here?
[11:36] <mc44> doug_h: i rather doubt it
[11:36] <mc44> doug_h: although may I convince you of the relative merits of ubuntu... :p
[11:37] <doug_h> mc44: i'm not convinced that ubuntu is good nor bad
[11:37] <steven__> Is there something like debian-volatile for ubuntu?
[11:38] <steven__> I need some additional sources for more frequent updates to my clamav and so on
[11:38] <mc44> steven__: not really, there is the development version but that is often broken
[11:38] <doug_h> mc44: i mostly use CentOS on my server and thats about it, i've tried most of the other mainstream distro's and didn't really like any of them but i don't need linux for a desktop so ubuntu doesn't have much at all i'm interested in
[11:38] <steven__> mc44, Ah I see.. that kinda sucks :)
[11:39] <mc44> steven__: its a consequnce of ubuntus approach to time based releases
[11:39] <mc44> steven__: if you need something like debian unstable, go ahead and use it :)
[11:39] <steven__> mc44, unstable is quite a leap from volatile :)
[11:40] <doug_h> mc44: that and i'm mainly here to observe heh
[11:40] <Bepo> doug_h: ah crap
[11:40] <steven__> And it's not so easy to switch from ubuntu to debian on a running mail server
[11:40] <Bepo> doug_h: same darn error
[11:40] <doug_h> Bepo: what?
[11:40] <doug_h> Bepo: sounds like something else is broken... usually it mentions that NTLDR is missing if it's a data error
[11:40] <grodius> Hey can anyone tell me how to get ubuntu to work on an external monitor using s video
[11:41] <pwuertz> hi, is there a channel for ubuntu 7.04 feisty?
[11:41] <MistaED> pwuertz: #ubuntu+1
[11:41] <pwuertz> tnx
[11:41] <Bepo> doug_h: lol i guess installing Ubuntu again wouldn't fix it?
[11:41] <Gunslinger|Deags> now i can just double click on the theme to install it or do i need to be doing this some special way
[11:41] <doug_h> Bepo: not likely, i'm not sure what your problem is anymore
[11:42] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, open the Theme manager, drag the new theme file into it
[11:42] <doug_h> mc44: here is part of my observations already: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55Q4BwkkRQU
[11:42] <mc44> steven__: right, sorry, thinking of the wrong debian. No there isnt an equivalent to volatile, but all main packaegs get rapid security updates
[11:43] <Bepo> doug_h: what would install ubuntu again do? my system has worked correctly with Grub before
[11:43] <rapid> thats right
[11:43] <Bepo> doug_h: maybe if Grub is on there again and partition everything correctly?
[11:43] <doug_h> Bepo: if GRUB boots ubuntu at least it could be used to boot windows
[11:44] <Bepo> doug_h: pop in my Ubuntu and installl?
[11:44] <mc44> doug_h: how very... er.. interesting :)
[11:44] <doug_h> Bepo: go for it
[11:44] <mohlert1> racarr: i just installed wine from the syanptic package.  I am new to linux, so i don't know where to go now to open the program.  can you help?
[11:44] <Bepo> doug_h: can you walk me through so i do it correctly?
[11:44] <doug_h> mc44: yes i recorded just under 3k frames using piespy to kind of observe the social activities here
[11:45] <doug_h> Bepo: ubuntu doesn't let you choose where to put GRUB it does that all for you
[11:45] <mc44> doug_h: any profound conclusions (other than oooh pretty?)
[11:45] <Bepo> doug_h: but the partitioning?
[11:45] <doug_h> Bepo: just put ubuntu where it was before and leave the windows partition alone
[11:45] <Bepo> doug_h: k
[11:46] <mohlert1> racarr:  you there?
[11:46] <Bepo> doug_h: delete the old partition for ubuntu?
[11:46] <doug_h> mc44: well it tells me who is active most, who holds the most concurrent conversations
[11:46] <doug_h> Bepo: yes
[11:46] <wahl> how do i install wine? :( (im not good at ubuntu xD)
[11:47] <Gunslinger|Deags> good all wakl im at the point thats what i want too
[11:47] <Gunslinger|Deags> wahl*
[11:47] <wahl> wah?
[11:47] <racarr> mohlert1: Hi
[11:47] <Gunslinger|Deags> there is no instructions exactly how to do it on their website
[11:47] <racarr> wahl:  Check www.winehq.com
[11:47] <x-r00t-x> hello. i want to install tcl mod on apache2.
[11:47] <wahl> oki
[11:47] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, sorry, what are you trying to do?
[11:47] <racarr> wahl: It has instructions on how to add repositories for an updated version of wine in ubuntu
[11:48] <wahl> okej :P
[11:48] <Gunslinger|Deags> i cant find exact newb instructions for wine on their website
[11:48] <mohlert1> racarr:  how do I access wine once i have it installed?
[11:48] <Gunslinger|Deags> or maybe my fault is just installing things in genera
 Invisible_: you need to enable universe : how do i do that?
[11:48] <racarr> mohlert1: You can run 'wine application.exe'
[11:48] <Bepo> doug_h: of the 4 do i just delete Ext3?
[11:49] <mc44> !universe | Invisible_
[11:49] <ubotu> Invisible_: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:49] <doug_h> Bepo: delete all but NTFS
[11:49] <racarr> mohlert1: In a terminal...or maybe double click on an exe, KDE registers .exe to start with wine not sure about gnome
[11:49] <mc44> Invisible_: first link from the bot
[11:49] <racarr> mohlert1: Well, konqueror, not sure about nautilus
[11:49] <x-r00t-x> !apche2-tcl_mod
[11:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apche2-tcl_mod - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:49] <doug_h> Bepo: then let ubuntu partition the freespace
[11:49] <eclipse75> is there a way how i can repair the root file system?
[11:49] <eclipse75> replace the packages
[11:49] <wahl> why must it be so hard to install a prog? :S ;)
[11:49] <mohlert1> racarr: it doesn't put it under applications when I have installled it with the syanptic package?
[11:49] <eclipse75> because during update the system crashed and i got screwed
[11:50] <Gunslinger|Deags> i know the feeling wahl i just installed this tonight and its like german or spanish to me :P
[11:50] <racarr> mohlert1: No, wine doesn't have an interface like that to start from applications
[11:50] <x-r00t-x> mc44, can you tell me how do i install mod_tcl for apache2 ?
[11:50] <racarr> wahl: It's not, if you just want to install a slightly old version of wine run 'sudo apt-get install wine' problem solved
[11:50] <mc44> x-r00t-x: no, sorry, no idea
[11:50] <Bepo> doug_h: ok so last time I did this I deleted manually and went all the way back to main menu to install on the largest empy space?
[11:50] <Gunslinger|Deags> u have to have internet for that racarr?
[11:50] <ramvi> When trying to sudo apt-get upgrade, I get; "/var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)". And no, synaptic isn't open. What do I do? :)
[11:50] <racarr> mohlert1: Open up a terminal (Appliations->accessories in gnome?) and find your exe, then run wine file.exe to start it  with wine
[11:51] <doug_h> Bepo: yes
[11:51] <racarr> Gimslinger|Deags: Yes, unless you have a CD registered as an apt-cd repo
[11:51] <wahl> racarr when i do it sais ( package not avalible )
[11:51] <Xemanth^> how do I add new user to group which are allowed to do 'sudo updatedb'
[11:51] <Gunslinger|Deags> thats my problem i need to install wine without the internet
[11:51] <wahl> so it's not that simple
[11:51] <racarr> wahl: Have you enabled the universe repositories?
[11:51] <wahl> wtf?
[11:52] <Gunslinger|Deags> lmao
[11:52] <wahl> how to enable that ?
[11:52] <eclipse75> question: is there any way how i can repair root partition after a failed system update
[11:52] <racarr> wahl: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Windows_Applications_in_Linux_.28Wine.29
[11:52] <Bepo> doug_h: if ubuntu goes up and running... is there still hope for my windows data?
[11:52] <wahl> ty
[11:52] <eclipse75> just reinstall just a portion of the packages
[11:52] <doug_h> Bepo: yes it should all still be there
[11:52] <eclipse75> without being forced into backing up
[11:52] <Madpilot> ubotu, universe | wahl
[11:52] <ubotu> wahl: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:52] <Madpilot> ubotu, wine | wahl
[11:52] <ubotu> wahl: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:53] <eclipse75> ... hello?
[11:53] <x-r00t-x> !tcl
[11:53] <mohlert1> racarr:  so if if I was going to try to run vongo (windows app) i would type "run wine vongo.exe" in the terminal?
[11:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tcl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:53] <racarr> mohlert1: no, 'wine vongo.exe'
[11:53] <wahl> okioki, ty
[11:53] <Xemanth^> if i add to my system user 'blobs', to what group I should add him that he can for example install debian packages with dpkg -i or do updatedb
[11:53] <racarr> mohlert1: Assuming you are in the same directory as the exe
[11:53] <AmirMohammad> I've a problem, I've just installed a package which seems was not that standard, and now when I want to remove it fails with `subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1' error message, and as I've a broken package there in my ubuntu I can't install/update anymore
[11:54] <Xemanth^> AmirMohammad: do sudo updatedb and locatet hat programmers dpkg remove instructions and remove them and then do apt-get -f install
[11:54] <Gunslinger|Deags> so i pretty much have to have the internet hooked up to the linux box to do anything ?
[11:55] <wahl> this is hard stuff:S
[11:55] <eclipse75> isnt there a option where i can reinstall all the packages from a live cd without replacing the /home directory?????
[11:55] <ESPOiG> if i wanted to chmod 777 all the files within a dir say /media/hdc1/ would i do chmod 777 /media/hdc1/*
[11:55] <Xemanth^> AmirMohammad: i once corrected post removal error like that... its dirty fix but at least i managed to save system
[11:56] <AmirMohammad> ah, thanks Xemanth^
[11:56] <doug_h> well i'm off to sleep
[11:57] <doug_h> good morning all
[11:57] <Gunslinger|Deags> night doug
[11:57] <Bepo> later doug
[11:57] <Gunslinger|Deags> morning doug
[11:57] <Gunslinger|Deags> lol
[11:57] <Invisible_> libauthen-sasl-perl - Authen::SASL - SASL Authentication framework
[11:57] <Invisible_> this is what i got when i did  apt-cache search libauth
[11:57] <ESPOiG> eclipse75, u should just bak them up some how then when you goto install ubuntu you should partition your harddrive to / /home swap then each time you want to save your home directory all you do is not format it when reinstalling ubuntu
[11:57] <Invisible_> is this the package i have to install it now?
[11:58] <ESPOiG> if i wanted to chmod 777 all the files within a dir say /media/hdc1/ would i do chmod 777 /media/hdc1/*
[11:58] <Xemanth^> AmirMohammad: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/softwaresname.* | but i'm not responsible if you kill your system :)
[11:58] <AmirMohammad> hahha
[11:58] <AmirMohammad> let's see what would happen
[11:59] <Madpilot> ESPOiG, if that's a whole partition, try adjusting the mount permissions on it - better than chmod on the whole thing, I'd think...
[12:00] <Gunslinger|Deags> Madpilot, so everytime i wanna get something using a sudo apt-get blahblahblah.exe i have to have the internet hooked up or what does that mean
[12:00] <mohlert1> racarr: I did what you said and the following how it played our in the terminal. tommy@unbuntu-:~$ wine VongoSetup.exe
[12:00] <mohlert1> wine: creating configuration directory '/home/tommy/.wine'...
[12:00] <mohlert1> Failed to open the service control manager.
[12:00] <mohlert1> fixme:ole:ITypeInfo_fnRelease destroy child objects
[12:00] <mohlert1> wine: '/home/tommy/.wine' created successfully.
[12:00] <mohlert1> wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\VongoSetup.exe": Module not found
[12:00] <scorp123> Hello all ...
[12:00] <mohlert1> Any suggesstions?
[12:00] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, yes, apt-get uses online repositories
[12:01] <wahl> god damn wine is hard:S
[12:01] <Gunslinger|Deags> is there anyway to get these without having my box on the internet
[12:01] <ESPOiG> Madpilot, that was an example it is actually a dir with many dirs in it and file within each and all all set so i cant write so i wanted to chmod 777 ~/afile/* but it didnt work so i dont know now :D ??
[12:01] <Madpilot> ESPOiG, man chmod
[12:01] <Madpilot> Gunslinger|Deags, not easily
[12:02] <vlc> This might be pretty basic, but how do i install Xorg drivers for my geforce 7950 SLI? Tried a few guides on the internet, but i still don't get it working...
[12:02] <Gunslinger|Deags> i get the feeling linux is pointless without it being on the internet lol
[12:02] <scorp123> @GUNSLINGER: why? What do you need to achieve here? You only need to be online when you want to update or install stuff anyway.
[12:02] <Gunslinger|Deags> well i have this computer hooked up to the net
[12:02] <racarr> mohlert1: Were you in the same directory as VongoSetup.exe?
[12:03] <Gunslinger|Deags> and no internet connection for the otehr box
[12:03] <Gunslinger|Deags> no hub or anything
[12:03] <scorp123> @GUNSLINGER: and why not?
[12:03] <Gunslinger|Deags> cause im poor?
[12:03] <Gunslinger|Deags> lol
[12:03] <mohlert1> racarr: keep in mind I am new to linux, but what does "in the same directory" mean.  How would I do that in a terminal?
[12:03] <scorp123> LAN stuff such as hubs etc. doesn't cost that much ...
[12:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> well i dont have one now
[12:04] <racarr> mohlert1: Like a folder, when you start a terminal you are probably in y our home directoyr
[12:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> and this has to be setup by tomm morning
[12:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> lol
[12:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> and i have 3 hours
[12:04] <racarr> mohlert1: like, /home/username/
[12:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> :D
[12:04] <racarr> mohlert1: or ~ for short
[12:04] <racarr> mohlert1: so you can use 'cd' to change to the directory it is in, i.e. if it was in the desktop run
[12:04] <scorp123> and why tomorrow morning? Can't you just switch cables?
[12:04] <racarr> mohlert1: cd ~/Desktop, then do the wine thing
[12:04] <Gunslinger|Deags> then i lose connection here thus not being able to get any help if i need it
[12:04] <mohlert1> racarr:  the vongosetup.exe is in a mounted network folder.  does that make a difference?
 i get the feeling linux is pointless without it being on the internet lol <- i get same emotion when i'm in windows, whats the point being on computer if there's net :)
[12:05] <racarr> mohlert1: No
[12:05] <Xemanth^> there's not net*
[12:05] <Gunslinger|Deags> lol ya i guess thats true
[12:05] <Gunslinger|Deags> :P
[12:06] <x-r00t-x> !mod_tcl
[12:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> im just frustrated cause it seems like every turn tonight theres a new problem
[12:06] <Gunslinger|Deags> lol
[12:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mod_tcl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:06] <mohlert1> racarr: vongosetup.exe is in "/home/tommy/networkgamng/USB Drive/Main Backup/Programs/Media Players/Vongo Player".  I don't know where wine is because i installed it with synaptic..... Does that help you?
[12:07] <scorp123> @GUNSLINGER: and why do you lose your connection?
[12:07] <eclipse75> whats the default update software used in ubuntu
[12:07] <eclipse75> ??
[12:07] <racarr> mohlert1: All you have to do it run cd ~/networkgaming/USB\ Drive/Main\ Backup/Programs/Media/Players/Vongo\ Player/
[12:07] <Gunslinger|Deags> i would lose my connection here if i pluged my cord into the other computer
[12:07] <racarr> mohlert1: Then run 'wine vongosetup.exe'
[12:07] <Gunslinger|Deags> that wouldnt be a problem besides the fact that i cant get help on here if i needed it
[12:08] <racarr> mohlert1: The wine executable is in /usr/bin/ which is in your $PATH variable, so when it see's 'wine' it looks for it there and finds it
[12:08] <scorp123> @Gunslinger .... well, you should really get a hub ... or a second LAN card, then you could use your other machine as proxy or something.
[12:08] <Gunslinger|Deags> does ubuntu come with a irc client?
[12:08] <aBiNg> howto verify the cursor in the terminal to underline style?
[12:08] <scorp123> with many
[12:09] <solar-> htp://www.solarcombat.net << An awesome game! http://www.solarcombat.net/hosting.php << An awesome host!
[12:09] <Gunslinger|Deags> and if so where do i find it
[12:09] <Gunslinger|Deags> i dont see it in apps
[12:10] <scorp123> should be in the Internet apps ...
[12:10] <scorp123> besides that you can install any client you wish once your connected to the internet :)
[12:10] <Gunslinger|Deags> all there is is phone mail firefox gaim and terminal
[12:11] <aBiNg> underline style cursor,any idea?
[12:11] <mohlert1> Racarr: I typed "cd ~/networkgaming/USB\ Drive/Main\ Backup/Programs/Media/Players/Vongo\ Player/" into the terminal and it gave me a " No such file or directory" error.
[12:12] <omersiartr> hello
[12:12] <Xemanth^> AmirMohammad: did you solve your problem?
[12:12] <scorp123> @GUNSLINGER .... if you open a terminal and then type this command:  apropos irc
[12:12] <scorp123> forget it .... stupid command
[12:12] <omersiartr> im using ubuntu 610 64bit
[12:12] <Lattyware> Hey all, I need a small bit of help, My printer is an HP DeskJet 6940 - Ubuntu only has a driver for a 6980, what should I do?
[12:12] <scorp123> doesn't yield the results I thought it would yield ...
[12:12] <omersiartr> and i want to use flash extension for firefox
[12:12] <scorp123> @LATTY .... use that one
[12:13] <scorp123> I work for HP :-)
[12:13] <AmirMohammad> Xemanth^: I was doing a back-up, now I'm ready
[12:13] <Xemanth^> :)
[12:13] <Lattyware> scorp123: Heh, nice. Thanks.
[12:13] <scorp123> With HP printers you can always choose the model that comes closest to the printer that you have :D
[12:13] <omersiartr> :d
[12:13] <omersiartr> yeah
[12:13] <omersiartr> but what about my question
[12:13] <omersiartr> ??
[12:14] <scorp123> at least in Linux ...
[12:14] <mohlert1> Racarr: I typed "cd ~/networkgaming/USB\ Drive/Main\ Backup/Programs/Media/Players/Vongo\ Player/" into the terminal and it gave me a " No such file or directory" error.
[12:14] <mc44> mohlert1: try " "cd ~/networkgaming/USB\ Drive/Main\ Backup/Programs/Media\ Players/Vongo\ Player/"
[12:14] <scorp123> @OMER: you're out of luck, I fear ... Flash is only available for 32 bit.
[12:14] <omersiartr> really?
[12:14] <AmirMohammad> Xemanth^: well, seems it did the job :)
[12:15] <mc44> omersiartr: adobe have not made a 64 bit version
[12:15] <Xemanth^> AmirMohammad:  hooray
[12:15] <Xemanth^> :)
[12:15] <omersiartr> haydaaa
[12:15] <AmirMohammad> Xemanth^: danke mate ;)
[12:15] <omersiartr> okay
[12:15] <Xemanth^> AmirMohammad: everytime cold sweat comes when dpkg gets stuck to removal process errors :)
[12:15] <racarr> mohlert1: Change one directory at a time... might be a typo
[12:15] <mu> sudo
[12:15] <omersiartr> how can i download language pack for firefox
[12:16] <omersiartr> ??
[12:16] <racarr> mohlert1: i.e. cd ~/networkgaming, cd USB\ Drive, cd Main\ Backup
[12:16] <Gunslinger|Deags> is ubuntu RPM or no?
[12:16] <omersiartr> i dont now
[12:16] <aBiNg> hello
[12:16] <Xemanth^> what should I do to my user that he can do sudo from this day on ?
[12:16] <omersiartr> what is it?
[12:17] <mc44> Gunslinger|Deags: no, it is .deb
[12:17] <scorp123> Gunslinger|Deags: Hell, no ....
[12:17] <aBiNg> who i can get the underline-style cursor in the terminal?
[12:17] <Lattyware> scorp123: On a side note, what protocol should I be using, as IPP seems to not do anything.
[12:17] <scorp123> @LATTY: Are you trying to print via network or do you use a local printer? Big difference!
[12:17] <mc44> !deb | Gunslinger|Deags
[12:17] <ubotu> Gunslinger|Deags: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[12:17] <Lattyware> Network.
[12:18] <scorp123> @LATTY ... ok, that's a different story then. First things first: Is this printer connected to another machine or print server? Or does it use its own LAN connection?
[12:19] <Lattyware> scorp123: Ah, don't worry, it was a print server, it's just the new printer is quieter than the old one, so I couldn't hear it printing :P
[12:19] <scorp123> @LATTY:  LOL
[12:19] <Lattyware> yeah :P
[12:20] <mc44> scorp123: if you type the first few letters of somones name then press tab it will complete the name for you
[12:20] <scorp123> mc44: AH yeah ... LOL. I didn't know that :D :D :D
[12:21] <scorp123> Coool. You always learn something new :)
[12:21] <wahl> how to make my ubuntu "seetrough" ?
[12:21] <mc44> :)
[12:21] <mohlert1> racarr: THanks a lot. that worked, but during istallation it said vongo required windows media player 9.0 or higher---- So I guess I need to install windows media player using wine first.  correct?
[12:21] <scorp123> wahl: you mean transparent?
[12:21] <wahl> yes :P
[12:21] <wahl> my english is not good :P
[12:21] <scorp123> wahl: which language do you speak?

[12:28] <wahl> ups, that was wrong i think, nothing happened:S
[12:28] <scorp123> soufiane: Why would you want to do this in the first place??

[12:34] <racarr> wahl: /etc/apt/
[12:34] <wahl> k
[12:34] <scorp123> wahl: best thing would be you print the instructions I gave you and follow them step by step
[12:34] <omersiartr> what is ubuntu's default root pass
[12:34] <omersiartr> ??
[12:34] <QwertyM> CotRo|eR, Go to System > Administration > Login Window > Security Tab
[12:34] <scorp123> omersiartr: there is no root password
[12:34] <racarr> wahl: What did you expect to happen: it's just going to show you a bunch of text, then give you a new wprompt
[12:35] <QwertyM> CotRo|eR, and enable automatic login and choose a username hence
[12:35] <scorp123> omersiartr: you have to use "sudo" and the password of the first user that was installed ... e.g. your own password?
[12:35] <mc44> !root | omersiartr
[12:35] <ubotu> omersiartr: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:35] <scorp123> !root
[12:35] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:35] <soufiane> i found it
[12:35] <QwertyM> omersiartr, or if you wish to use graphical sudo in nautilus, just type gksudo nautilus in the terminal
[12:36] <omersiartr> no ijust want to run shutdown command
[12:36] <scorp123> omersiartr: sudo shutdown
[12:36] <omersiartr> okay
[12:36] <soufiane>  sudo chown -hR user /var/www
[12:36] <omersiartr> scorp123:

[12:37] <wahl> shiiiiet:S
[12:37] <CotRo|eR> tnx QwertyM
[12:38] <QwertyM> CotRo|eR, np, I like autologin hehe :)
[12:38] <wahl> now my terminal can't find sources.list :S
[12:38] <Naabo> Heya all, any one know a "working"guide for freenx install..have tried some of them now..can get it working..;(
[12:39] <RememberPOL> What do you all use as a subversion front-end?
[12:40] <wahl> i don't have athority to save it:S
[12:40] <CotRo|eR> QwertyM: I need that cause I have 2pcs and I use ubuntu via vnc so when I start it up it logs automatically ;)
[12:42] <scorp123> wahl: did you use "sudo"
[12:42] <scorp123> ?
[12:42] <wahl> ups i shouldn't add "wget http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/root@lupine.me.uk.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -" to my sources.list ^^
[12:42] <scorp123> wahl: NO!!!!
[12:42] <wahl> hihi xD
[12:42] <wahl> my mistake
[12:42] <racarr> wahl: You run that
[12:42] <scorp123> wahl: wget is a command ... that stuff doesn't belong into sources.list
[12:43] <wahl> ups, how to delet it?
[12:43] <racarr> wahl: wget downloads a file, in this case a gpg public key and then it pipes the output to the apt-get add program
[12:43] <wahl> yes, but how to get it off my sources.list ?xD
[12:43] <scorp123> wahl: why don't you delete the line again??
[12:44] <wahl> i can't
[12:45] <scorp123> wahl: gksudo gnome-editor /etc/apt/sources.list$
[12:45] <wahl> i can't get in to sources.list again, ( root problem or something )
[12:45] <wahl> scorp oki
[12:46] <scorp123> wahl: just drop the "$" sign there at the end .... that was a typo

[12:52] <scorp123> wahl: if you would read the instructions you would see this stuff about wget ....  :D
[12:52] <scorp123> wahl: that's how you get the right GPG keys so it stops complaining about that
[12:52] <mohlert1> anyone: i have installed wine and was trying to install Windows Media Player 10, but during the installation he tells me it wasn' able to search for updates to try again later.  Has anyone in here been able to install windows media player through wine before?

[12:54] <Invisible_> E: Couldn't find package libauthen-pam-perl
[12:54] <mc44> !info libauthen-pam-perl
[12:54] <scorp123> hjmills: e.g. mount -t vfat -o rw /your/fat/partition /mount-point/somwhere/  ....
[12:54] <ubotu> libauthen-pam-perl: Perl interface to PAM library. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.16-1 (edgy), package size 31 kB, installed size 136 kB
[12:54] <mc44> Invisible_: it should be there
[12:55] <scorp123> PFA
[12:55] <Invisible_> i have enabled universe and tried upgrading
[12:55] <scorp123> PFA: you're trying to get Skype?
[12:55] <Invisible_> is there anyway i can this manually?
[12:56] <Flannel> Invisible_: pastebin your sources.list
[12:56] <hjmills> scorp123: still is giving read only errors :(
[12:56] <Flannel> Invisible_: updating, not upgrading, is what you need to do after enabling a new repository
[12:56] <scorp123> hjmills: can you show me the mount command you used?
[12:56] <wahl> now i got a key :D
[12:57] <hjmills> scorp123: exactly as you typed but without the -t vfat
[12:57] <finalbeta> How do I save files in Gedit so they are readable inside windows (normal enters). When encoding can I use? I tried Wester Windows (...) , yet that failed
[12:57] <scorp123> hjmills: just give me the whole command line please
[12:58] <scorp123> finalbeta: there is a package called "unix2dos" ... you can use it on text files, so that they can be read OK on Windows
[12:58] <hjmills> scorp123: (as root) mount
[12:58] <scorp123> finalbeta: The alternative would be to use a better editor on Windows, one that can handle UNIX files.
[12:58] <hjmills> scorp123: (as root) mount -o rw /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows
[12:58] <Flannel> finalbeta: you'll want to make end of lines CRLF (carriage return and line feed), I'm not sure if there's a setting for that, there are other programs that can do that.  (SciTE is one I know can convert line endings)
[12:58] <mohlert1> racarr:  I installed Rhapsody player using wine and it put a shortcut on my desktop.  When I click on the shortcut, it doesn't do anything.  Do you know How I opent eh windows program once it is installed?
[12:58] <scorp123> hjmills: please type this command:  mount
[12:59] <scorp123> hjmills: and please pastebin the output back here
[12:59] <Invisible_> pastebin givin some error http://rafb.net/paste/results/B5QUN626.html
[12:59] <finalbeta> scorp123, Flannel , I guess it's easier to use open office en save in ODF or something.
[12:59] <racarr> mohlert1: It might nto work with wine, check www.winehq.com
[12:59] <racarr> mohlert1: The app db
[12:59] <scorp123> finalbeta: For more complex documents, yes.
[01:00] <scorp123> finalbeta: But you were asking about Gedit ... so I assumed we were talking about plain ASCII text files ...
[01:00] <scorp123> !pastebin
[01:00] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:00] <Flannel> finalbeta: eh, just convert line endings.  but yeah, a more complex file format is probably better for more complex files anyway.  Latex, whatever document format, etc.
[01:00] <finalbeta> We where, still, whatever wastes less time.
[01:00] <scorp123> unix2dos
[01:00] <scorp123> it's small and easy to use
[01:00] <Invisible_> thanks scorp123, dint knew about this
[01:00] <Flannel> finalbeta: if gedit doesn't have an option for line endings, a ... two line perl script can easily do it, on either windows, or unix.
[01:01] <mohlert1> racarr: the app db --- what do you mean? put that in a terminal?
[01:01] <finalbeta> Again, whatever wastes less time, if I have to move those documents between systems allot. What would be the best method? My guess is just using openoffice/word
[01:01] <racarr> mohlert1: No, search the appdb on www.winehq.com
[01:02] <scorp123> "unix2dos" is included in the package "tofrodos"
[01:02] <scorp123> apt-get install tofrodos
[01:02] <Flannel> finalbeta: Are they "document" documents? or just text files?
[01:02] <hjmills> scorp123: sorry - i just checked dmesg and somebody formatted it as ntfs :( i changed to another drive and its much better - thanks for the help and sorry
[01:02] <scorp123> hjmills: that's what I thought :D
[01:02] <Flannel> Invisible_: that's not your full sources.list, is it?
[01:02] <finalbeta> text files. Still, saving them in openoffice is one action, where gedit + unix2dos is two actions, even in perl
[01:03] <Flannel> finalbeta: just use SciTE on windows, it can read any of the three line ending versions, heck, I use it on both.
[01:03] <scorp123> finalbeta:  or UltraEdit ... or "gvim" (vim for Windows!).
[01:03] <Flannel> finalbeta: there are plenty of editors for windows that can do that as well.  Almost all of them, I'd reckon
[01:03] <mohlert1> racarr: oh, sorry --- gotcha.  I having been working on this new linux install for 14 hour now ---- so i have terminal stuck in my head :-) Can you see if you can access www.winehq.com real quick?  The page keeps timing out on me?
[01:03] <M3G4crux> hi there
[01:03] <scorp123> Flannel: except "Notepad" :D
[01:04] <scorp123> M3G4crux: hi
[01:05] <Magus_X> hey
[01:05] <Magus_X> i forgot
[01:05] <Magus_X> how i can access that browser
[01:05] <Magus_X> text based
[01:05] <Magus_X> that console has?
[01:05] <Magus_X> *haves
[01:05] <Flannel> Magus_X: lynx is default and already installed, I believe
[01:05] <erUSUL> lynx
[01:05] <Magus_X> thanx
[01:06] <scorp123> Magus_X: w3m is another very nice one
[01:06] <wahl> scorp123 , i think i got a key now, how to add it?
[01:06] <Magus_X> yeah, its very useful
[01:07] <scorp123> wahl: Read the instructions. Really. They are absolutely clear. You just need to copy & paste.
[01:07] <wahl> oki :)
[01:07] <wahl> ty
[01:07] <Vuen> hey guys, how can i figure out in a bash script whether the current session is local or remote?
[01:08] <Vuen> like if it's through ssh or not
[01:08] <wahl> YES I GOT IT :D
[01:08] <scorp123> Vuen: ps -efH
[01:08] <Vuen> ...
[01:08] <user-land> Hello, what do you use to make backups of DVDs ?
[01:08] <Vuen> scorp123: what did that do?
[01:09] <wahl> scorp123 : E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? ???wtf? ?
[01:09] <scorp123> Vuen: find the task on top of your bash session ... if it says "sshd" you are in SSH
[01:09] <Vuen> all i see is a process list
[01:09] <scorp123> Vuen: Exactly!!
[01:09] <Vuen> i need a bash script to do this.
[01:09] <Flannel> wahl: close any other package managers (synaptic, aptitude, update-manager) and try again.
[01:09] <Magus_X> omg
[01:09] <Magus_X> w3w pwns
[01:09] <wahl> okiii:P
[01:11] <felixfoertsch> Hi there - is there a good GTK+ software like "Ant Movie Catalog"?
[01:11] <felixfoertsch> Want to sort my DVD collection with digital support.
[01:11] <wahl> flannel damn i got my updater on, and i can't get it off xD it has lagged :P
[01:13] <samu2> What's the name of the executable for Software Updates? It seems to have stopped for me and I don't know process name to look for to try and stop it.
[01:13] <Flannel> scorp123: update-manager
[01:14] <Enverex> hmm, I tried to do a "dist-upgrade" on my moms laptop and it hosed it, I'll remember not to use that in future, heh
[01:15] <scorp123> Flannel: sorry, I didn't get you? "update-manager" =? I didn't ask anything.
[01:15] <Flannel> samu2, update-manager.
[01:15] <samu2> Flannel, thanks
[01:16] <samu2> Can't believe I didn't see it in the list myself...
[01:17] <Enverex> What is the correct method for upgrading from something like 5.10 to 6.10?
[01:17] <Flannel> Enverex: 5.10 > 6.06 > 6.10
[01:17] <Flannel> !upgrade | Enverex
[01:17] <ubotu> Enverex: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:18] <thePuck> I got a problem in kde where I launch an app and it just hangs there for a while then the indicator disappears...doesn't happen every time I launch something, but an awful lot...anyone heard of this or got a solution?
[01:19] <Enverex> Flannel, hmm, I did that, it "downloaded" all the packages through the update manager then just... closed, lol
[01:19] <scorp123> Vuen: open a terminal and check the parameters there! e.g. via  "set | more"
[01:20] <scorp123> Vuen: If you are in a SSH session there will be parameters such as "SSH_TTY=/dev/pts/4" telling you that you are inside a SSH session.
[01:20] <Magus_X> there are anyway to use
[01:20] <Magus_X> DRI
[01:20] <Magus_X> in a onboard chipset?
[01:21] <scorp123> Vuen: on a local session the parameter "SSH_TTY=" is completely missing.
[01:23] <scorp123> Magus_X: That depends highly on the chipset ...
[01:23] <freight> hello
[01:23] <thePuck> I've got a problem in kde where I launch an app and it just hangs there for a while then the indicator disappears...doesn't happen every time I launch something, but an awful lot...anyone heard of this or got a solution?
[01:24] <Magus_X> hm...
[01:24] <Magus_X> its a VIA chipset
[01:24] <Magus_X> i'm afraid that only NFORCE Chipsets and ATI can do DRI...
[01:24] <Enverex> Magus_X, What onboard card?
[01:24] <Magus_X> VIA
[01:24] <Enverex> Magus_X, Lots of things can do DRI...
[01:25] <Enverex> VIA what?
[01:25] <Magus_X>  hm
[01:25] <Magus_X> let me check
[01:25] <user-land> My System Monitor sometimes does not show me applications using all my CPU ... where can i see them and kill them ?
[01:26] <Magus_X> where i can find it?
[01:26] <Enverex> Magus_X, Pastebin the output of lspci

[01:28] <alpa> hey guys.. how can i install gimmix player on ubuntu in my 64-bit pc?
[01:29] <scorp123> thePuck: Open a terminal, e.g. "konsole". And try to start from there, e.g. by manually typing in the command needed to launch the application. Chances are that you will get some error messages in the terminal which wouldn't be visible otherwise ...
[01:30] <gnomefreak> Enverex: while on that does unichrome pro have a built driver for it?
[01:30] <wahl> damn, i got beryl working:D:D:D

[01:34] <aylov> this is older card
[01:35] <Enverex> Magus_X, What motherboard is this?
[01:35] <gnomefreak> aylov: what does lspci say the card is?
[01:35] <user-land> Xorg is using all my CPU. no game, no video running. how can i stop it ?
[01:35] <Magus_X> i have no idea, i'm installing linux on my school
[01:35] <gnomefreak> user-land: are you running beryl or compiz?
[01:35] <aylov> gnomefreak : VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV15 [GeForce2 GTS/Pro]  (rev a4)
[01:36] <user-land> no, gnomefreak, i tried dvdrip and k9copy unsuccessfully.
[01:36] <Magus_X> i can figure out
[01:36] <Magus_X> what MOBO it is
[01:36] <Magus_X> via console?
[01:36] <gnomefreak> aylov: give me a min im looking it up
[01:36] <cableroy> I have problem, install beryl and nvidia driver, problem is the resolution, from Xorg.log No valid modes for "1200X1024_75" <- the 75 is from a forum, and i get Unable to validate any modes... any suggestion?
[01:37] <Enverex> Magus_X, No, you need to open up the case and read the big letters on the board, heh
[01:37] <Magus_X> damn
[01:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> hey
[01:37] <Gunslinger|Deags> anyone there
[01:38] <apokryphos> !anyone
[01:38] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:38] <Gunslinger|Deags> so if i plug internet in to the computer with ubuntu on it is it gonna just work or do i have to do something to it?
[01:38] <gnomefreak> aylov: thats a hard one im thinking is the -legacy but this page states both. geforce2 == nvidia-glx but pro==legacy
[01:38] <user-land> gnomefreak, the problem stopped when i closed firefox now ...
[01:39] <Magus_X> nvidia geforce 2 needs legacy driver?
[01:39] <gnomefreak> aylov: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia
[01:39] <gnomefreak> aylov: go with the nvidia-glx package to start with im leaning towards that one
[01:40] <user-land> gnomefreak, did you see the new firefox and thunderbird vulnerabilities published today ?
[01:40] <gnomefreak> user-land: no i dont use ff 2.0
[01:41] <user-land> it concerns 1.5 as well, gnomefreak.
[01:41] <gnomefreak> user-land: does it concern 3.0?
[01:41] <user-land> is that what you use ?
[01:42] <gnomefreak> user-land: if you have a link let me see it anyway but if 2.0.0.1 fixes it than its already been requested
[01:42] <gnomefreak> user-land: yes
[01:42] <user-land> gnomefreak, do you recommend it ?
[01:42] <gnomefreak> user-land: no
[01:42] <gnomefreak> its very unstable
[01:43] <user-land> thanks. 2.0 is unstable too.
[01:44] <aylov> gnomefreak: i have installed nvidia-glx-legacy, is this a problem?
[01:45] <gnomefreak> aylov: no try it if it doesnt work remove it and install -glx

[01:47] <gnomefreak> aylov: what doesnt?
[01:48] <aylov> gnomefreak: i cannot use my video with aiglx
[01:48] <Enverex> Never understood the obsession with XGL/Beryl, it looks nice but gets annoying quite fast and it's a hassle, heh. People need to put "THIS WILL BREAK OPENGL GAMES" in big letters on it somewhere too :P

[02:04] <sod75> Citrusp3rs: your Trash or root's ?
[02:04] <Citrusp3rs> my trash
[02:04] <Citrusp3rs> is there a root trash?
[02:05] <Citrusp3rs> im kinda new to this :)
[02:05] <OdinT> erUSUL, right kindly talk me trough that. Thanks.
[02:05] <sod75> every user has it's own trash folder
[02:05] <kenThomson> When i got to networking and then navigate to the DNS tab, than i fill my ISPs DNS servers, and then connect. Then ubuntu automatically changes them to something that i didn't enter. I again go there and re-enter my DNS servers addresses, then when i connect to the internet, Ubuntu again changes them to something else. What is happening? Please help
[02:05] <Citrusp3rs> but i used sudo, didn' t log in as root
[02:05] <pepexxssdd> any server ubuntu in spanish please?
[02:05] <Citrusp3rs> so how would i empty the root trash?
[02:05] <pepexxssdd> any server ubuntu in spanish please?
[02:05] <OdinT> how do I install that (I have a feeling the basics are not present)
[02:06] <kspath> kenThomson, are you set to dynamic IP?
[02:06] <erUSUL> OdinT: also when printing from, say, openoffice choose Properties from the print menu near the printer name and in the second tab choose the desired "printout mode" (quality)
[02:06] <sod75> Citrusp3rs: I don't use nautilus so I'm not 100% sure if it would put it in the trash or not
[02:06] <kenThomson> kspath: No i manually entered my local IP, but the ISP randomly assigns me a IP everytime i connect
[02:06] <Citrusp3rs> nautilus does that, at least the default file manager does, which is nautilus
[02:06] <Citrusp3rs> but did you read the error i posted?
[02:06] <OdinT> yea, but the amount of ink it uses are a waste, and PDF files are blury
[02:07] <Citrusp3rs> could that have anything to do with it
[02:07] <kenThomson> kspath: i also tried setting it to "automatically obtain ip" but that too doesn;t work
[02:07] <kspath> kenThomson, that is dynamic and their DHCP server is giving you the DNS information
[02:07] <Gravy_Train> can someone help me. I'm afraid I ruined my sysklogds  file , how can i either get it back to the way it was?
[02:07] <erUSUL> OdinT: you are using a bad resolution option or printout mode... just find the one right for you...
[02:07] <sod75> Citrusp3rs: not sure but that shouldn't prvent you  from getting you diskspace relseased
[02:07] <kenThomson> kspath: So who is changing the DNS servers i manually type into the available fields, everytime i connect?
[02:08] <Citrusp3rs> so i log in as root with my root password on the welcome screen and empty the trash bin?
[02:09] <kenThomson> someone?
[02:09] <kspath> kenThomson, What are you using to do this change?
[02:09] <sod75> Citrusp3rs: possibly, or it can be that a process is still linked to those files, then *nix won't release that diskspace untill that process ends
[02:09] <Stormx2> kenThomson: Whats the issue?
[02:09] <Citrusp3rs> ok
[02:09] <Citrusp3rs> maybe some UT2K4 anti-piracy thing is still running?
[02:09] <kenThomson> Stormx2: When i got to networking and then navigate to the DNS tab, than i fill my ISPs DNS servers, and then connect. Then ubuntu automatically changes them to something that i didn't enter. I again go there and re-enter my DNS servers addresses, then when i connect to the internet, Ubuntu again changes them to something else. What is happening? Please help
[02:09] <Citrusp3rs> like starforce on windows
[02:09] <kenThomson> kspath:i didn;t get your question
[02:10] <Stormx2> kenThomson: For me, my DNS server is the same as my gateway.
[02:10] <sod75> Citrusp3rs: could be, deleting a file that 'is in use won't release that diskspace
[02:10] <Stormx2> kenThomson: Are you not going through a cable/adsl modem?
[02:10] <sod75> but that shouldn't be all files in that dir ///
[02:10] <Citrusp3rs> possibly, as i didn' t have permission to delete it, while in normal mode
[02:10] <kenThomson> Stormx2: I am having a ADSL/PPPOE connection
[02:11] <kspath> kenThomson, you answered it
[02:11] <Citrusp3rs> only weird processes in taskmanagement are "esd" and bonobo activation system"
[02:11] <Stormx2> kenThomson: Try setting your primary DNS server to your gateway, and leaving the secondary dns server blank
[02:11] <sod75> Citrusp3rs: check if anything is in the root .trash folder, and if that doesn't work hunt down a related process that might lock that diskspace ( or reboot)
[02:11] <kenThomson> kspath: I don't know what i answered, so tell me who is changing the DNS servers i manually enter everytime i connect?
[02:11] <Citrusp3rs> i have already rebooted 5 times, so that wouldn' t be it, but ill check the diskspace
[02:12] <kenThomson> Stormx2: But in the networking dialog box, in the dns tab, there is nothing like primary/secondary, i simply enter the ip of my DNS servers and press enter. so how do i achieve what you are telling me?
[02:13] <kenThomson> Stormx2: kspath: So what do i do now?
[02:14] <kspath> kenThomson: sorry   you are beyond my help,  I just fix things almost without thought and walking you through it via IRC is not something I can do any longer   sorry
[02:14] <Stormx2> kenThomson: Oh sorry. Just set your gateway's IP up as your DNS server
[02:15] <kenThomson> ok
[02:15] <kenThomson> thank you
[02:15] <Citrusp3rs> sod75, it was all still in my root' s .trash folder, and now deleting :)
[02:15] <Citrusp3rs> thanks a lot for your help :)
[02:15] <kenThomson> Still i didn't get the answer; how do my DNS servers IP change, everytime i connect (from what i manually enter)?????
[02:15] <FordPrefect> someone must have said my name when I wasn't here...
[02:16] <FordPrefect> Who wishes to hear lies?
[02:16] <sod75> Citrusp3rs: you're welcome
[02:16] <Citrusp3rs> :)
[02:16] <edd_> hey, getting an error when trying to install packages: E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[02:16] <edd_> E: Unable to lock the download directory, can anybody help?
[02:17] <jane> Hello
[02:17] <Ceberus> Hi : )
[02:17] <jane> Is there a way to change screen res via CLI?
[02:18] <kenThomson> Can no one tell me, how do my DNS servers IP change, everytime i connect (from what i manually enter)?????
[02:18] <erUSUL> edd_: you have more than one apt running (synaptic or update manager)
[02:18] <erUSUL> kenThomson: where do you enter them manually?
[02:19] <edd_> erUSUL: i only have the auto updater running
[02:19] <kenThomson> erUSUL: in the networking dialog box? i navigate to the DNS tab, and then i put my DNS server's IP in the available field and press enter. Thats how i enter the,
[02:19] <Flannel> edd_: that'll do it.
[02:19] <kspath> kenThomson, research for your future knowledge     Dynamic IP,   DHCP,  PPP, ...   you can use google or whatever you want to read about them in the future
[02:20] <edd_> Flannel: but i only hav one thing running, do you think it hasnt ended a process fully somewhere?
[02:20] <kenThomson> kspath: Thats really kind, i simply want to know the answer to that single question. If you can save me the trouble of scouraging the internet for info, please answer my question
[02:20] <Flannel> edd_: only have one thing running?  the update manager is running, then whatever else youre trying to run is trying to use the same thing, and cant
[02:20] <kspath> kenThomson, yes I thought it was kind as well
[02:21] <erUSUL> kenThomson: i would think that that's is a bug in said  networking dialog box....
[02:21] <kenThomson> kspath: still no answer?
[02:21] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: please don't scourge the net
[02:21] <kenThomson> erUSUL: kspath: What am i to do? 9/10 times when i open yahoo.com / gmail.com i get "could not locate remote server". Where and what is the problem. Till yesterday everything was just fine
[02:21] <kspath> kenThomson, I do not use your tabs  or interfaces.  sorry   I will be of no help for that
[02:22] <NightFire91> Hosting Doesn't come any better than this >> http://www.solarcombat.net/hosting.php
[02:22] <frogzoo_> NightFire91: dubious...
[02:22] <kenThomson> frogzoo_: Than what am i supposed to do once i decided to plunge headlong in to the tedious world of OSS
[02:23] <erUSUL> kenThomson: have you (un)instaled something that can be cousing this?
[02:23] <EvilGuru> I have just run an apt-get update and I have an error updating openoffice.org:  error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-core_2.0.4-0ubuntu4_i386.deb (--unpack): as the tarball I am told is corrupt, what should I do
[02:23] <edd_> sorted. ended old process of package manager...
[02:23] <neuro__> Quick question re: filesystems - I'm formatting a spare drive to be used as a place to store backups of my DVDs. What filesystem should I use?
[02:23] <kspath> kenThomson: you can look at /etc/network/interfaces before and after you change it and after you connect and "someone" changes it
[02:23] <kenThomson> erUSUL: I dont think so. What may be causing that?
[02:24] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: how are you connecting? 1) router/dsl/modem/dialup? 2) dhcp or static ip?
[02:24] <kenThomson> kspath: I know my DNS servers IP gets changed. thats for sure. so tell me what happens exactly?
[02:24] <jrib> neuro__: ext3
[02:24] <kspath> kenThomson, I use shell and vim for nearly everything so KDE/GNOME interfaces are not something I do
[02:24] <neuro__> okay jrib, why ext3?
[02:24] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: you got the ip of your dns server from /etc/resolv.conf?
[02:24] <kenThomson> frogzoo_: I am connecting via a ADSL/PPPOE, and am having a Dynamic Public IP that the server assigns randomly to me
[02:25] <sod75> neuro__: journaling
[02:25] <jrib> neuro__: it's the default filesystem for a reason, I haven't really read anything with good reasons for using anything else
[02:25] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: and the /etc/resolv.conf?
[02:25] <EvilGuru> anyone have any ideas?
[02:25] <kenThomson> frogzoo_: The networking dialog box > dns tab, lists all my dns servers. And i manually enter them (from the note my ISP has sent me), and once i connect to the internet it gets changed
[02:25] <neuro__> ahh okay. Also, Ubuntu is suggesting to use the access path "/tmp/disks-conf-hdb1" - is this ok?
[02:25] <kspath> kenThomson, Do you have something like this in /etc/network/interfaces     iface eth0 inet dynamic    ?
[02:25] <kenThomson> kspath: You browse the web at CLI?
[02:26] <sod75> neuro__: that's up to you, your choice entirely
[02:26] <Flannel> kenThomson: and watch movies!
[02:26] <kspath> kenThomson: I have and do but I sometimes open up galeon or firefox
[02:26] <kenThomson> Flannel: :()
[02:26] <kenThomson> kspath: I am relieved :)
[02:26] <sod75> EvilGuru: just a guess, tried deleting the file and letting it be redownloaded ? ?
[02:26] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: look in /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider - do you have a line that reads "usepeerdns" ?
[02:26] <EvilGuru> sod75: where are the downloaded packages kept?
[02:27] <kspath> kenThomson: what is so important about GUIs?
[02:27] <[TO] WaxMan> any one around who knows about debootstrap? I could do with a little help
[02:27] <Flannel> EvilGuru: /var/cache/apt
[02:27] <erUSUL> kenThomson: what type of connection do you use? xdsl, cable? do you use dhcp?
[02:27] <sod75> /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-core_2.0.4-0ubuntu4_i386.deb
[02:27] <kenThomson> i will get back to you, i need to boot up Ubuntu now, as the Internet was not working in Ubuntu i opened XP, to get some help
[02:27] <kenThomson> erUSUL: I am on a ADSL/PPPOE thats all about my connection that i know
[02:28] <erUSUL> kenThomson: maybe you have to enter the dns values in your router if you use one
[02:28] <kenThomson> kspath: Graphics
[02:28] <kspath> Guess I am spoil with 8-9 computers
[02:28] <kspath> kenThomson: graphics are what allow me to have my terminals up and running  wterm and aterm are nice
[02:28] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: if it's what I think it is, comment out the "peerdns" line & the ip of the dns server will remain fixed
[02:29] <kenThomson> frogzoo_: I cant check that now as presently i am in XP (internet works like slow snail in ubuntu), can you list some steps i write down and perform once i bott ubuntu. As when i boot ubuntu i would not be able to come to the IRC. Internet is simply behaving obnoxiously in ubuntu
[02:29] <Madeye> guys, I'm trying to install Clamav but getting this clamav: Depends: libclamav1 (>= 0.90~rc2) but it is not going to be installed
[02:29] <erUSUL> kenThomson: what says 'sudo less /etc/ppp/resolv.conf'
[02:29] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: just jot down my last 3 posts
[02:29] <kspath> maybe I should play with the GUIs and dialup    so I can assist the people that do not know enough to use CLI
[02:30] <frogzoo_> erUSUL: it's no good - he's on xp atm
[02:30] <kenThomson> frogzoo_: So i go to /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider and modify the line like this and save? right?
[02:30] <kenThomson> #usepeerdns
[02:30] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: yep
[02:31] <kenThomson> frogzoo_: So can you tell me how do my DNS servers gets changed and what is doing that?
[02:31] <kspath> Are internal DSL modems common now?
[02:32] <Enverex> Does Ubuntu boot off USB HDs without any modification? (assuming the PC supports booting from USB)
[02:32] <erUSUL> kspath: most are usb
[02:32] <neurotech> What IRC client do you guys recommend? All I want is something that looks nice and connects to multiple networks.
[02:32] <stefg> Enverex: do mean ubuntu when installed, or the ubuntu installer itself?
[02:32] <erUSUL> neurotech: irssi, xchat
[02:32] <Enverex> stefg, Ubuntu when installed
[02:32] <kspath> erUSUL: are they "smart" modems with their own  telnet or web interfaces?
[02:33] <Sh4d0x> owk hi there fella'z :p
[02:33] <stefg> Enverex: shouldn't be a problem...
[02:33] <erUSUL> kspath: the one i used (speedtouch) did not have any interface is a modem it did not need one
[02:33] <Sh4d0x> does some of you folks use inkscape?
[02:33] <kenThomson> neurotech: go for chatzilla
[02:33] <neurotech> is that a firefox extension?
[02:33] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: your pppoe client reads the 'usepeerdns' option, & queries the dhcp server for the ip of the dns servers to use, then writes that in /etc/resolv.conf - disable the option, & the dns ip should remain static
[02:34] <dllh> Sh4d0x, I've always used sodipodi
[02:34] <Enverex> stefg, Cool. The only thing I was worried about is the fact that you need the USB kernel parts compiled in rather than as modules (just like the issue you'd have if SATA were modules rather than built in) unless Ubuntu uses an initrd or something
[02:34] <kenThomson> frogzoo_: Thank you for a detailed reply. Moreover will that solve the problem in which i get mail.yahoo.com or google.com as "couldn't locate remote servers"
[02:34] <dllh> never got inkscape to compile, though I've only recently started using ubuntu and haven't tried it on this box yet
[02:34] <Sh4d0x> in winblows i use illustrator (duhh) but !! yet my art is .ai and i can't open it in inkscape :(
[02:35] <stefg> Enverex: just be aware, that most systems support booting from USB by taking the USB drive as /hda/ this might cause confusion for the installer, which installed to /sda..
[02:35] <jrib> dllh: no need to compile it, it's in the repositories
[02:35] <dsadad> :D
[02:35] <jrib> !info inkscape
[02:35] <ubotu> inkscape: vector-based drawing program. In component main, is optional. Version 0.44-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 7345 kB, installed size 30784 kB
[02:35] <kenThomson> neurotech: That is a standalone IRC/ that can work from within Firefox as well
[02:35] <dsadad> ubuntu en espaol ?
[02:35] <jrib> !es | dsadad
[02:35] <ubotu> dsadad: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[02:35] <stefg> !es
[02:35] <dllh> jrib, right, but I'm coming from Fedora Core, for which the install isn't so straightforward
[02:35] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[02:35] <Sh4d0x> yeah thnx jrib ... i really didn't know that ^o)
[02:35] <Enverex> stefg, yeah, well it goes by UUID of the drive for fstab so it's only Grub, which I can modify as it boots, so it should be ok
[02:35] <jrib> dllh: oh I see

[02:35] <frogzoo_> kenThomson: it should - if it doesn't, come back here
[02:35] <kenThomson> ok
[02:36] <kenThomson> Thank you for your patience and help, i much appreciate it
[02:36] <mborohov> so anybody have any idea about how to get memory stick working? ive never really tried too hard, considering its proprietary and i much prefer cf/sd, but now that i have one...
[02:36] <stefg> Enverex: i see you got the point... USB drives seen from the outside appear as (hd2,0) to grub, but when booted from USB they are (hd0,0)
[02:36] <frogzoo_> mborohov: does a driver for memstick even exist?
[02:36] <erUSUL> mborohov: usb memory sticks should just work (tm)
[02:37] <frogzoo_> mborohov: correct me if I'm wrong - this is the Sony proprietary memory stick?
[02:37] <mborohov> frogzoo_: i have no idea, thats partially why im asking. and yes, this is that memstick.
[02:37] <frogzoo_> mborohov: this is a slot in a Sony machine? - then it's not usb
[02:37] <Enverex> stefg, I've been using Linux for 5 years or so, so I'm used to fiddling, heh, just playing about with Ubuntu out of interest and possibly as a "backup" so connect to PCs and fix them, heh.
[02:37] <mborohov> erUSUL: this isn't a usb stick. those _do_ just work. i was pleasantly surprised that i didn't have to deal with it.
[02:37] <erUSUL> frogzoo_: yes they and usb hd's work with the usb-storage driver that makes them look like scsi disks (hence they appear as /dev/sdx)
[02:37] <Sh4d0x> can't none of you help me??
[02:37] <mborohov> frogzoo_: this is indeed a slot
[02:37] <Enverex> stefg, I was more refering to the "root=/dev/sda" bit of grub btw, heh but that too
[02:38] <Remo_A> are there already kernel modules for the axbo spac? (www.axbo.com)
[02:38] <cableroy> damn nvidia driver
[02:38] <Gosha> why are there allways more than one firefox or amarok, e.t.c running at the same time?
[02:39] <frogzoo_> mborohov: if it's a usb slot, the stick should just work, if it's a Memory Stick Sony then you'll need a different driver, and I'm not sure one even exists
[02:39] <stefg> Enverex: so i install grub and a .iso of the Insert rescue-CD on all my external drives, so thyt i can boot a separate OS and partimage the internal drives... makes an external hd sort of a 'backup-appliance'
[02:40] <Enverex> stefg, heh
[02:40] <mborohov> frogzoo: i don't think it's a usb slot. know of any such drivers?
[02:40] <tapas> is it normal, that i don't get any upgrades with edgy?
[02:40] <tapas> mind you i come from debian unstable where yo9u can do apt-get upgrade daily :)
[02:40] <QwertyM> why not?
[02:40] <frogzoo_> mborohov: I think I already answered that
[02:41] <tapas> well i do apt-get update; apt-get upgrade and it simply _always_ tells me "nhothing new"
[02:41] <mborohov> frogzoo_: fair enough :)
[02:41] <QwertyM> tapas, are repos proper and you sure not everything's already updated? ;)
[02:41] <tapas> deb http://debian.charite.de/ubuntu/ edgy main universe multiverse
[02:41] <tapas> that's all i got in there sources.list
[02:42] <QwertyM> tapas, ohh
[02:42] <tapas> QwertyM: i had to install via debootstrap so maybe the sources list is not really proper
[02:42] <Kishore> how to delete .debs in /var/cache/apt/archives
[02:42] <QwertyM> tapas, go to ubuntuguide.org and add the repos listed there
[02:42] <tapas> Kishore: apt-cache clean
[02:42] <tapas> QwertyM: ok
[02:44] <tapas> QwertyM: i suppose i should include the major bugfix repo and the security fixes repo, right?

[02:45] <tapas> QwertyM: what;s the edy-proposed repo?
[02:46] <stefg> tapas: that's a leftover from development
[02:46] <tapas> stefg: so i shouldn't include it?
[02:46] <stefg> no
[02:46] <tapas> ok
[02:46] <tapas> thanks
[02:46] <Lattyware> How can I run a command in every directory recursivly?

Whenever I do an apt-get install I get a message that the following packages were automatically installed and are nolonger needed. <blah><blah>, however one of them is ruby1.8 subversion debhelper etc. I think using aptitude caused but I am not sure of how to fix it.
[02:47] <benkong2> Any thoughts?

[02:55] <benkong2> akerr0r; fresh install?
[02:55] <akerr0r> benkong2: yes
[02:56] <gauteh> hey. how can i remove all packages from a certain repository?
[02:56] <benkong2> did you do grub setup (hd0)
[02:56] <Jussi02> nobody knows about tcp ip settings
[02:56] <Jussi02> ??
[02:56] <akerr0r> installer says it has
[02:57] <tapas> argh i hate find
[02:57] <akerr0r> tried 3 times though, and it's not working for me.
[02:57] <akerr0r> any way to check/edit the grub config from this live cd?
[02:57] <benkong2> akerr0r; look here http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_restore_GRUB_menu_after_Windows_installation
[02:58] <akerr0r> benkong2: thanks i'll check that out
[02:58] <tapas> i also hate how my drm/dri  enabled xserver freezes when using opengl apps
[02:58] <der0b> jussi02: You might start by looking at /etc/network/interfaces
[02:58] <Gosha> why are there allways more than one firefox or amarok, e.t.c running at the same time?
[02:58] <Jussi02> thanks der0b
[02:58] <QwertyM> Its irritative yeah, Gosha I'd like an answer too
[02:59] <tapas> it's the threads
[02:59] <tapas> of the apps
[02:59] <QwertyM> Fx has been resolved tho, Amarok breaks by doin that
[02:59] <Gosha> no one knows? O_o ... Fx?
[02:59] <Lattyware> tapas: hmmm
[03:00] <tapas> the threads show as multiple processes under linux
[03:00] <Gosha> ah
[03:00] <Gosha> .. so ..
[03:00] <tapas> [in most linux process reporting tools, i.e. top/htop, etcc] ] 
[03:00] <Gosha>  it's not like using 2.6% of the ram * 5?
[03:01] <tapas> linux process reporting is teh suxxor
[03:01] <tapas> it makes some twisted sense
[03:01] <Gosha> .. so, what should i use then?
[03:01] <tapas> Gosha: exactly
[03:01] <neurotech> Hi again.. what do you guys use to watch DVDs?
[03:01] <Gosha> .. using htop >_<
[03:01] <Enverex> Can someone explain this "linux-generic" kernel thing, doesn't this mean it's just using i386 now? What happened to the other optimised kernels?
[03:01] <tapas> Gosha: htop is cool
[03:01] <stefg> neurotech: vlc (with libdvdcss, of course)
[03:02] <Gosha> .. are there better ones?
[03:02] <tapas> Gosha: just keep in mind that processes that use the same image share the ram, too
[03:02] <neurotech> stefg how can I play a mounted DVD iso in VLC?
[03:02] <Gosha> huh?
[03:02] <DrLabel> hello ppl
[03:02] <Gosha> same image of what?
[03:02] <Roey> hi
[03:03] <tapas> Gosha: process image
[03:03] <tapas> [the binary blob] 
[03:03] <Gosha> .. as in .. they take ram?
[03:03] <Roey> how about calling the next release after Feral Ferret  "Garry GNU"
[03:03] <DrLabel> first who can i force Ubuntu 6.10 to use generic kernel because we always want to use 386
[03:03] <Gosha> use
[03:03] <stefg> neurotech: mounted DVD or .iso-image on disk? check vlc's 'open directory' dialog :-)
[03:03] <akerr0r> benkong2: following that site, but having trouble downloading the software. can't seem to save cuz of this liveCD
[03:03] <Roey> muahaha, I kill me
[03:03] <tapas> Gosha: if you start the same program twice, linux will not use up twice the memory
[03:03] <Gosha> oh?
[03:04] <DrLabel> yes use
[03:04] <DrLabel> we always start XXXX.386 and i want XXX.generic
[03:05] <DrLabel> i have to esc at grub and manual select generic
[03:05] <neurotech> oh wow stefg, I dont even need to mount the ISO, VLC will play it directly!
[03:05] <Gosha> PID = ?
[03:05] <stefg> neurotech: thats what i was going to tell you :-)
[03:05] <neurotech> this is awesome
[03:05] <stefg> totem does that, too
[03:06] <DrLabel> Gosha PID =? is for me ????
[03:06] <Gosha> ... ?
[03:06] <QwertyM> when I do a sudo cp web /var/www/web it shows cp: ommiting directory 'web' what is this, why dont it copy? :(
[03:06] <AlexC_> Hey,
[03:06] <Gosha> .. what is the PID thing
[03:06] <stefg> QwertyM: cp -R /web ....
[03:06] <AlexC_> I have a problem with Gnome themeing. My GTK Controls are no longer working correctly. If I change theme they always stay the same style
[03:07] <Gosha> !pid
[03:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:07] <gouki> It's a unique identifier for a running application (PID)
[03:07] <QwertyM> stefg, oh ok
[03:07] <AlexC_> Last thing I did was install kubuntu-desktop, which I have now removed - and since then it's mesed the GTK Controls up
[03:07] <Rookie_> Gosha - PID = Process ID
[03:08] <akerr0r> which install method should i use for the greatest control over grub?
[03:08] <jrib> AlexC_: see if gtk2-engines-gtk-qt is installed and remove it
[03:08] <stefg> AlexC_: sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[03:09] <jazzrocker> how do i install the source for a given package?
[03:09] <stefg> AlexC_: or maybe just sudo dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop
[03:09] <jazzrocker> e.g. telnet
[03:09] <DrLabel> other question at nvidia-settings shows --> Bus Type: PCI Express 1X ; is this correct
[03:09] <jazzrocker> apt-get install telnet-src "doesn't work"
[03:09] <AlexC_> stefg: ok I'll try them now. jrib nah it's not installed.
[03:09] <jazzrocker> "couldn't find package telnet-src"
[03:09] <stefg> apt | jazzrocker
[03:09] <stefg> !apt | jazzrocker
[03:09] <ubotu> jazzrocker: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[03:10] <qmf> *** Please install gmodule-2.0 (atleast version 2.6.0) < i cant seem to find what package i need to get to install gmodule
[03:10] <stefg> jazzrocker: apt-src
[03:10] <jrib> jazzrocker: apt-get source package_name
[03:11] <jazzrocker> ok, so who's lying :)
[03:11] <DrLabel> first who can i force Ubuntu 6.10 to use generic kernel because we always want to use 386
[03:11] <jbs> hi all
[03:11] <DrLabel> other question at nvidia-settings shows --> Bus Type: PCI Express 1X ; is this correct
[03:11] <DrLabel> ???
[03:11] <DrLabel> help plsssssssssssssssssss
[03:11] <jazzrocker> ok, and where do sources get installed by default?
[03:12] <stefg> !enter | DrLabel
[03:12] <ubotu> DrLabel: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:12] <frogzoo> DrLabel: I don't understand - edgy has just one 32bit generic kernel
[03:12] <jrib> jazzrocker: current working directory
[03:12] <sod75> DrLabel: check /boot/grub/menu.list
[03:12] <DrLabel> oki for the kernel and for the VGA
[03:14] <thePuck> are the repos being really slow for anyone else?
[03:14] <DrLabel> and who do i select generic ???
[03:14] <frogzoo> thePuck: the au repos are nice & fasty
[03:15] <DrLabel> we have 386 at first than 386 recovery than generic
[03:15] <ken__> frogzoo: Are you the same one that talked to me?
[03:15] <frogzoo> thePuck: however, have you seen the list of latest updates?
[03:15] <frogzoo> ken__: if you're a richards, then yes
[03:16] <ken__> frogzoo: I dont know what you mean, but the advice on commenting out usepeerdns worked beautifully
[03:16] <HiDeo> kikoolol
[03:16] <ken__> frogzoo, Now are you the same one?
[03:16] <ken__> frogzoo,
[03:17] <frogzoo> ken__: oh, Thomson fair enough - yes that was me earlier
[03:17] <AlexC_> stefg: nope, reconfigure didn't work either
[03:17] <AlexC_> stefg: it's like it's stuck on Clearlooks,
[03:17] <ken__> frogzoo: OK, once again thank you so much. It really worked and now Ubuntu is up and running again. I wish that no time in the ever will i have to see the dreaded logo of XP booting up on my precious computer
[03:17] <dllh> to answer my own question from earlier about finding sources, you just do "apt-get source <package>"
[03:18] <ken__> frogzoo, *future
[03:18] <DrLabel> go test be right back
[03:18] <frogzoo> k ken, glad that helped :)
[03:19] <ken__> frogzoo: Ok it is this spirit that keeps the community alive, thank you so much and aspire to one day have enough knowledge to help unsuspecting strangers lurking at the IRC
[03:19] <ken__> frogzoo, Goody bye and have a nice day
[03:19] <ken__> And to all those people out there, Love, Ken
[03:19] <forngren> where does chkrootkit install on ubuntu?
[03:19] <frogzoo> forngren: dpkg -L chkrootkit
[03:19] <stefg> AlexC_: then try to deinstall the offending package first. ubuntu-desktop will reinstall it anyways
[03:20] <forngren> frogzoo: thanks =)
[03:20] <AlexC_> stefg: I don't know what the offending packages are,
[03:21] <stefg> AlexC_: what does apt-get -f install give?
[03:22] <AlexC_> stefg: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[03:22] <jrib> dllh: there's probably a better way.  What are you compiling?
[03:22] <soon> Howdy folks .. at #ubuntu-dk we've been trying to get my wifi going, but so far without any luck ... any wifi gurus care to help? In brief: IBM T60 with Atheros 5212 card, madwifi is in kernel (as far as I can tell) and wirelesstools tells me, the card can 'see' all three local routers - alas connceting is VERY sporadic - sometimes I can conncet, sometimes not, and I get dropped again quickly. Im on kubuntu 6.10 but have installed
[03:22] <soon> NetworkManager. I'm just about ready to go back to Gentoo :-)
[03:23] <dllh> jrib, I'm just trying to get a perl module Apache::Constants to compile through CPAN, and it's asking for the source dir
[03:23] <stefg> AlexC_: ok, so apt looks 'unbroken'... what error do you get with clearlooks?
[03:23] <dllh> So I got the source and am now compiling (but not installing) apache
[03:23] <dllh> And I'll feed it that source dir and cross my fingers that it's good enough
[03:24] <jrib> dllh: you can usually just install the corresponding -dev package.  So apache-dev for Apache and whatever it is for apache2 if you are using that
[03:24] <dllh> ah, cool
[03:25] <AlexC_> stefg: I get no error, just I can't change theme. I can change Metacity theme fine, but GTK theme is stuck on what seems to be Clearlooks
[03:25] <dllh> sadly, the perl module wants apache 1.3 :(
[03:26] <stefg> AlexC_: type 'gnome-settings-daemon &' to a term and see if that changes something
[03:26] <AlexC_> stefg: You can only run one xsettings manager at a time; exiting
[03:27] <DrLabel> back the kernel prob is good know rks for your help
[03:27] <stefg> AlexC_: ok, so the daemon is running.... hmmm...
[03:27] <AlexC_> stefg: seems like KDE messed it up
[03:27] <jbs> somebody use XGL?
[03:27] <ziggy> hi all, I have a weird problem, since today, apt-get crashes on startup, the same for adept, so I'm a bit stuck here ...
[03:27] <DrLabel> Know the Vga prob is reporting that is using PCIE 1X is this a bug our a miss configuration ???
[03:28] <jbs> hi ziggy
[03:28] <ziggy> hi jbs
[03:28] <stefg> AlexC_ have you install qt-gtk, when you were running KDE?... that might have left a now broken setting to use qt widgets instead of gtk ones
[03:29] <AlexC_> stefg: honestly no idea - I can't remember manually installing it
[03:29] <wy> I guess the upgrade corrupted my language packages so that the characters look weird. What should I do to reinstall the languages part?
[03:29] <flux_> I consequently get the following errormessage from Kile when I try to compile: "[LaTeX]  test4.tex => test4.dvi (latex), [LaTeX]  finished with exit status 127, Cannot open log file; did you run LaTeX?"  I have installed TexLive and all the commands work from console. Does anyone know what to do?
[03:30] <stefg> AlexC_: create a new user and see if the fresh user-account has the same problem
[03:31] <Ropechoborra> How can i protect myself against a botnet attack
[03:32] <AlexC_> stefg: is I press ctrl+alt+F3 for example, I can login to that can't I
[03:32] <stefg> Ropechoborra: unplug your net-cable
[03:32] <AlexC_> stefg: and sitll be logged in on this account?
[03:32] <Ropechoborra> lol
[03:32] <Ropechoborra> :P
[03:32] <Ropechoborra> stefg and how does the big companies do it?
[03:32] <KomiaPoika> stefg: lol
[03:32] <KomiaPoika> Ropechoborra: with a iptables firewall
[03:33] <sirk> is there any fonero here?
[03:33] <sirk> someone who has a FON hotspot I mean
[03:33] <stefg> Ropechoborra: the big companies pay a security team (and the hackers which managed to intrude anyway, to keep the secrets)
[03:34] <DrLabel> nvidia-settings is reporting that is using PCIE 1X is this a bug our a miss configuration ???
[03:34] <dcordes_> my auth.log will not update when i login local oder via ssh. what can be the reason for that and how can i solve this issue?
[03:34] <smithw> Is someone also having troubles with the update of the python_uno package for Ubuntu edgy?
[03:34] <AlexC_> stefg: ok I just logged in to the other account and that one works perfectly fine.
[03:34] <akerr0r> i think my grub problems are due to not mounting a /boot partition.. how big does that one need to be?
[03:34] <stefg> AlexC_: so your user settings are borked...
[03:35] <AlexC_> stefg: damm that KDE! lol
[03:35] <stefg> i think it's the gtk ./. qt thing...
[03:35] <AlexC_> yeah must be some conflic going on somewhere
[03:35] <AlexC_> s/conflic/conflict
[03:36] <L33TrDaN1> hello
[03:36] <cata> hello
[03:36] <AlexC_> hello there,
[03:36] <naelphin> i'm looking for a screen magnifier like XP's. What is a recomended one for ubuntu?
[03:36] <wbadger> hello people can someone tell me what does ubuntu<number> mean in names of packages?
[03:36] <L33TrDaN1> I've got a new dhcp set up, and some boxes that are supposed to have statis ip's are picking up dhcp addresses
[03:36] <AlexC_> naelphin: I know Beryl/compiz has one
[03:37] <L33TrDaN1> bah, static ips.
[03:37] <flux_> I consequently get the following errormessage from Kile when I try to compile: "[LaTeX]  test4.tex => test4.dvi (latex), [LaTeX]  finished with exit status 127, Cannot open log file; did you run LaTeX?"  I have installed TexLive and all the commands work from console. I can compile documents from there. Does anyone know what to do?
[03:37] <ziggy> what file contains the list of installed packages ?
[03:37] <AlexC_> stefg: so how would I go about getting my current user settings back to normal?
[03:37] <naelphin> is there one for plain x?
[03:37] <L33TrDaN1> my eth0 is configured in my /etc/network/interfaces file as static, but 5 to 10 minutes after i turn the interface up, it uses an ip from the dhcp server
[03:37] <AlexC_> naelphin: no idea, sorry
[03:38] <ziggy> apt-get crashes on startup on a function "strlen", maybe my list of package has been damaged, I'd like to fix it
[03:38] <stefg> AlexC_: unfortunately, i can't tell that from this side of the wire...
[03:38] <wbadger> naelphin, how about this http://magnifier.sourceforge.net/
[03:38] <wy> anyone can help me with a display problem? I wonder how can I put on a screenshot?
[03:38] <akerr0r> graphics > KSnapshot
[03:38] <AlexC_> stefg: ok, is there any easy way to migrate to a new user?
[03:38] <akerr0r> upload to imageshack.us
[03:39] <naelphin> wbadger: that doesn't have a deb, how do i install?
[03:39] <wy> akerr0r: Thanks!
[03:39] <akerr0r> wy: np
[03:39] <stefg> AlexC_: just copy all the settings (which you're sure that they are good) over to the new account and chown them to the new user
[03:40] <akerr0r> i'm having trouble getting grub to load.. wiped out my windows install on my sata drive. ubuntu install goes fine, grub says it's installed to hd0, but when i reboot it won't load the OS
[03:40] <wy> akerr0r: Thanks!
[03:40] <frogzoo> L33TrDaN1: I don't think that's eth0 that's doing that...
[03:40] <stefg> !grub
[03:40] <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
[03:40] <wbadger> naelphin, actually I just opened up synaptic and found gnome-mag for gnome and kmag for KDE
[03:41] <akerr0r> stefg: tried that, can't get the iso to download onto this liveCD desktop/homedir
[03:41] <akerr0r> and windows was wiped before i installed ubuntu
[03:42] <stefg> akerr0r: does grub show an error number.. #17 is very popular...
[03:42] <AlexC_> stefg: actually would a better idea to be copy all themeing files from the new users to my old one?
[03:42] <L33TrDaNu> my ip switched... did anyone have any ideas to my problem with the dhcp overwriting my static ip?
[03:42] <jrib> how can I disable bug-buddy from catching crashes without uninstalling it?
[03:42] <wy> http://img225.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotrl2.png
[03:42] <akerr0r> stefg: yes i was able to get that -once- .. my first install attempt
[03:42] <wy> My screenshot. All chinese characters are gone in the font selector and right mouse menus
[03:43] <Zaggynl> rofl
[03:43] <Zaggynl> sars?
[03:43] <stefg> akerr0r: grub is confused what your (hd0) actually is... see the grub docs on that, there's a chapter on how to deal with swapping device-numbers
[03:44] <akerr0r> stefg: is there a way to set it correctly during setup?
[03:44] <user-land> Hello, is there a way to see the KDE systray in Ubuntu ?
[03:44] <wbadger> naelphin, so you only need to open a terminal and write either magnifier (gnome) or kmag (KDE)
[03:45] <akerr0r> user-land: you'd have to install KDE.. and someone was just here having issues after doing so..
[03:45] <naelphin> ** ERROR **: Error registering magnifier server.
[03:45] <naelphin> yay
[03:45] <AnAnt> how can I configure bind to look up *.mycompany.com via a certain IP address ?
[03:45] <QwertyM> user-land, yeah, you will need KDE then, but what of the systray do you actually need? :)
[03:45] <iturk> hi my friends i am trying to run a script (using sh ./run) with some simple commands like cd blabla !! i am getting ./run: ./run: cannot execute binary file !! which permission should i give to the file in order to be able to execute it ??
[03:46] <stefg> akerr0r: you can do that from a grub-prompt before fist boot: find /boot/grub/stage1 ... root(hd {whatever grub found}) ... setup (hd0)..
[03:46] <malt> hello, i did some restart X command other day, and now my ubuntu res size is only like 800
[03:46] <malt> how can i make it 1024 again?
[03:46] <akerr0r> stefg: but my problem seems to be that it's not even seeing grub at all
[03:46] <stefg> !fixres
[03:46] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart" in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[03:46] <malt> I tryed display options, and it don't give me the 1024 choice ;/
[03:46] <wy> Can anyone help me with this problem? I guess I need to reinstall the right hand menus for gnome. But I don't know the package name of it.
[03:47] <jolt> Any ideas when thell be a backport of the new firefox to edgy?
[03:47] <user-land> thanks akerr0r and qwertym, i need it for the download manager kget and apparently in gnome it is called notification area applet in the panel :-)
[03:48] <akerr0r> stefg: i have my bios set to boot specifically from my SATA drive. should i change it to boot from the first IDE drive instead? (is that the 'hd0' where grub is being put?)
[03:48] <iturk> malt: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change in modes to 1024x768 !!
[03:48] <QwertyM> user-land, for Gnome you can try GWGet as a front end for Wget :)
[03:48] <QwertyM> or maybe Downloader for X
[03:49] <AnAnt> how can I configure bind to look up *.mycompany.com via a certain IP address ?
[03:49] <stefg> akerr0r: so what's the situation? You get a grub-error? Grub doesn't get booted? what error do you get?
[03:49] <akerr0r> grub doesn't get booted
[03:49] <user-land> qwertym, do they work for youtube download links ?
[03:49] <akerr0r> it happened once with error #17
[03:51] <QwertyM> user-land, I dunno that, no harm in trying :)
[03:51] <user-land> thanks :-)
[03:52] <akerr0r> stefg: grub isn't booting at all. it happened once (and i got error 17) when i set the partition it was on (3rd on drive) to Active
[03:52] <stefg> akerr0r: google is full of problem reports with taht... seems a commen problem
[03:53] <akerr0r> stefg: is it because i'm installing to an SATA drive that isn't normally seen as a boot device?
[03:53] <stefg> akerr0r: exactly
[03:53] <stefg> http://grub.enbug.org/FrontPage ... have fun
[03:55] <Enverex> How do you search for packages from the command line?
[03:55] <akerr0r> stefg: does the text/oem installer give me more control over the grub installation than the gui install?
[03:55] <stefg> akerr0r: yes
[03:55] <akerr0r> stefg: what's the difference between the two? (text/oem)
[03:55] <am> help
[03:56] <ubinsp> bonjour hello
[03:56] <stefg> Desktop is a Live-CD with dumbed-down install-options... alternate is the proven debian textmode installer
[03:57] <akerr0r> stefg: so i should be able to set the correct grub options from the text installer..
[03:57] <ubinsp> I want to install gnomemeeting 1.2.3 from Debian testing on Ubuntu 6.10. How can I do it? The problem is dependencies
[03:57] <Enverex> Am I muted in here or something? bleh
[03:57] <stefg> akerr0r: yes
[03:57] <akerr0r> stefg: excellent. i'll try that.
[03:59] <rohan> is it safe to delete the diagnostic partition in a new laptop ?
[03:59] <rohan> acer has made hda1 as some diagnostic recovery partition ..
[04:00] <Madeye> guys, I'm trying to know my memory type if it's DD or SD, how can i do that
[04:00] <stefg> rohan: better don't touch it... you'll use the ability to set your bios
[04:00] <rohan> stefg: ouch ! thanks a lot for telling me :)
[04:00] <stefg> rohan: better don't touch it... you'll *lose* the ability to set your bios
[04:00] <LjL> use, lose, same thing when the bios is involved
[04:01] <stefg> hehe
[04:01] <rohan> lol
[04:02] <sod75> eviltux:
[04:02] <rohan> also, can i convert a primary partition to encase it within a logical one ?
[04:03] <frogzoo> Madeye: sudo lshw
[04:03] <stefg> rohan: we don't your skills as a sysadmin, so we can't tell :-)
[04:03] <stefg> know
[04:03] <rohan> stefg: well, what would be the way ?
[04:04] <stefg> rohan: gparted can do that for you
[04:04] <rohan> ok
[04:04] <rohan> let me poke
[04:05] <LinTux> How do I install samba in terminal?
[04:06] <TheGateKeeper> apt-get install samba
[04:06] <LinTux> Cheers TheGateKeeper.
[04:06] <TheGateKeeper> np :-)
[04:06] <Madeye> frogzoo, thank you
[04:08] <LinTux> TheGateKeeper: Is there a GUI I can use to configure Samba, if so what command to install it
[04:08] <|rt|> LinTux: SWAT
[04:08] <|rt|> LinTux: it's a web based frontend
[04:09] <LinTux> any good
[04:09] <TheGateKeeper> well I am sure there is a gnome equivalent of System Settings --> Sharring
[04:09] <|rt|> LinTux: It's part of samba and is maintained by the samba team
[04:09] <TheGateKeeper> LinTux: I use KDE
[04:10] <|rt|> LinTux: It's not the best interface but it does a good job with keeping up with the changes in samba
[04:11] <rohan> ubuntu is ultra sensitive to the touchpad ... takes a click, when i touch the touchpad to move the cursor, it takes it as a click
[04:11] <TheGateKeeper> |rt|: doesn't gnome have the equivalent of the KDE's System Settings --> Sharring?
[04:11] <LinTux> how do I access SWAT
[04:12] <|rt|> TheGateKeeper: not sure most of the boxes that I run samba on don't have X
[04:12] <|rt|> TheGateKeeper: and I just configure the shares by hand
[04:12] <LinTux> cheers rt
[04:13] <TheGateKeeper> LinTux: check that gnome doesn't have something under it's system settings (or whatever it uses)
[04:13] <jbutler> hey all... sometimes my network interface is wlan2 and sometimes its wlan3... is there a way to "lock in" a device to an interface?
[04:13] <|rt|> LinTux: it's been a while since I've used SWAT and it wasn't under ubuntu.  First check to see if they have seperated it into it's own package
[04:13] <LIJI> Hello
[04:13] <LIJI> Can someone please help me with Wine? I'm having trubles with it :(
[04:14] <Matsuo> Is there someone here familiar with exim and SMTP auth?  I could use some help setting it up
[04:14] <|rt|> LinTux: then depending on if it's running as a service or behind xinitd you point your browser to http://localhost:8080 I believe
[04:14] <|rt|> or whatever port SWAT runs on
[04:14] <ste> Hi all. Is there something a-la popcon.debian.org in ubuntu?

[04:15] <daviey> Hi, for some reason; i have rebooted and lost all sound!!! any ideas how to get i back?
[04:15] <TheGateKeeper> !sound
[04:15] <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 that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[04:16] <rohan> stefg: would you please point me to the proper option ?
[04:16] <wy> I got the problem. The gnome applets and control panel applications don't switch their language once you choose a language.
[04:16] <LIJI> How can I fully uninstall wine, including settings? I want to reinstall it so it will work this time ;)
[04:16] <Madeye> any idea how to fix this clamav: Depends: libclamav1 (>= 0.90~rc2) but it is not going to be installed
[04:17] <tflande> sudo apt-get remove --purge samba
[04:17] <stefg> rohan: for what? installing gparted?
[04:17] <wy> I think this is a bug. If you choose English to log into your gnome for the first time, add some applets to your panel, and switch to another language, you will get garbaged menus for these applets.

[04:57] <Madeye> What is the GTK+ development package and runtime? trying to install xfprot
[04:57] <LjL> !libgtk2.0-dev
[04:57] <ubotu> libgtk2.0-dev: Development files for the GTK+ library. In component main, is optional. Version 2.10.6-0ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 2511 kB, installed size 9096 kB
[04:57] <akerr0r> cld2: grub keeps trying to boot from hd0, which isn't where ubuntu is installed
[04:57] <ziggy> is that normal that my cache for apt  has grown to 400Mo (in /var/cache/apt ) ?
[04:57] <ken__> IRCMonkey, aaa
[04:57] <sunnz2> By default installation, does "hibernate" actually turns off the system or just suspend to RAM?
[04:57] <afief> Does anybody else have problems with gtk+ under edgy?
[04:57] <cld2> akerr0r: grub boots from where ever it is installed, regardless of where ubuntu is.
[04:58] <akerr0r> cld2: so i'm guessing i just need to change the hd0 line in grub's device.map to the correct drive
[04:58] <ziggy> sunnz2, hibernate saves on disk, suspend save in ram
[04:58] <sod75> sunnz2: hibernate is suspend to disk, so turn off

[05:22] <kibbled_bits> well I'm tired of upgrading it
[05:22] <afief> AcidStriker: i think that's something to do with open ssl, not ncurses

[05:22] <kibbled_bits> I want to remove it & F-Spot
[05:22] <LjL> bradley, fact is - Linux schedule processes by a priority. you can change that priority for the single processes, so you could probably make *one* process more responsive (at the risk of making everything else slow, if that process is CPU intensive itself), or you can set the CPU intensive process to a lower priority, so that it won't interfer too much
[05:22] <afief> AcidStriker: do you have openssl-dev?
[05:22] <AcidStriker> afief: I already install openssl

[05:23] <kibbled_bits> yes, but it tells me it will uninstall Ubuntu if I do that (basically
[05:23] <LjL> bradley: the commands you want, there, are "nice" and "renice". but you can't just do what you asked easily

[05:23] <JediMaster> anyhow, now for some reason in apache2 the index pages aren't working for php files, it tries to download the file, but works when you go to /index.php, any ideas? (index.php is specified in DirectoryIndex)
[05:23] <der0b> rjg_: check the wiki page for beryl again.  there's only one repo and it's the one you should be using
[05:23] <afief> AcidStriker: when compiling you need the {$package}-dev package
[05:23] <ParaDoX34690> oh yeah... that's a good ban LjL ;)
[05:23] <rjg_> one what wiki?
[05:23] <der0b> rjg_: the ubuntu wiki: wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:23] <AcidStriker> afief: apt-get install openssl-dev --> Couldn't find package openssl-dev
[05:24] <bradley> LjL, okay. i guess i will sift through google and see if some howtos exist. then gage my desire to do it.
[05:24] <LjL> bradley, another issue can be that of I/O starving
[05:25] <LjL> bradley: you might have processes that aren't really using much CPU, but use the hard drive a lot
[05:25] <biotrox> hey again
[05:25] <bradley> LjL, how would i check that?
[05:25] <biotrox> need to ask a Q
[05:25] <LjL> bradley: in that case, it's even harder to get them to "behave". you can install the "schedutils" package and try using the (undocumented... look at google) "ionice" command

[05:26] <LjL> bradley, if your HD is active and making noise all the time while the intensive program is running, then it's I/O bound... easy enough ;)

[05:27] <un_operateur> kamui, I think you need to add &> /dev/null to the end of the cron job
[05:27] <mc44> biotrox: aiglx wont work with an ati card
[05:27] <biotrox> soooo..?
[05:28] <un_operateur> kamui, that or   > /dev/null 2>&1
[05:28] <bradley> LjL, i think at the moment it is I/O bound but usually it is tiny cpu peaks that glitch stuff. but i kind of feel that changing it is out of my league for now.  maybe later on i'll do something about it.
[05:28] <kamui> un_operateur: hadn't even thought of redirection, thanks :)
[05:28] <bradley> LjL, thanks for all the info.
[05:28] <mc44> biotrox: so you have an ati card, therefore aiglx will not work
[05:28] <LjL> bradley, "ps aux" will list all processes
[05:28] <un_operateur> kamui, it also means you wont be notified of any errors eh :(
[05:28] <biotrox> what do i use in exchange to AIGLX
[05:28] <LjL> bradley: look what the offending process number is, and do "sudo renice 10 process-number"
[05:28] <LjL> bradley: that will make the process behave nicer with other processes

[05:30] <bradley> LjL, great, that is simple enough, thanks.  are the changes perminant for the program or would i need to run that command each time i reopen it (and it is hogging space)?
[05:30] <rjg_> with it enabled?

[05:30] <afief> der0b: you download all the updates for your packages
[05:30] <biotrox> mc
[05:30] <der0b> rjg_: you may also need to do an apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:30] <rjg_> der0b: I'll get the output for you now:
[05:30] <LjL> bradley: no you need to do it every time. but you can just do it while starting it, like this:   nice -n 10 command-name
[05:30] <rjg_> ok
[05:31] <afief> der0b: the first gets a list of the updates, the second actually installs them. if there are some more agressive updates you'll need to use dist-upgrade
[05:31] <LjL> ken33, stop evading bans. thanks.
[05:31] <der0b> afief: thanks, I'm actually just trying to find out if rjg_ is having a problem :)
[05:31] <afief> der0b: Afief bangs head on the desk
[05:31] <der0b> lol
[05:32] <rojosacerdotes> afief: i've been doing that all monrning
[05:32] <rojosacerdotes> morning, even
[05:32] <madzialek> no co
[05:32] <kamui> un_operateur: its just a job to awaken fetchmail daemon if its not active, another job to check the status of a few services Im running and respawn them if they're down.  I redirected the output to a log in my home dir, just annoying to wake up and check my email with mutt only to find 1200 entries of cron notifications
[05:32] <madzialek> wath
[05:33] <afief> rojosacerdotes: same here, i actually don't feel the pain anymore:D resolving cairo problems makes me want to commit suidice
[05:33] <rojosacerdotes> how stable is edgy?
[05:33] <un_operateur> kamui, you could redirect to a seperate log if you want to keep records - just in case
[05:33] <screechingcat> rojosacerdotes: extremely stable
[05:33] <afief> rojosacerdotes: if you want to compile your own software it's buggy
[05:34] <ubuntu> what do you have to do to host a gnibbles network game ?
[05:34] <bradley> LjL, Ken33 may be evading bans because s/he doesn't understand how or why they are being banned. it might be better to explain appropriate behavior before banning.
[05:34] <rojosacerdotes> screechingcat:  so to upgrade to edgy from dapper, you'd do a dist-upgrade, right?
[05:34] <LjL> bradley, it might be better if you discussed this kind of issues in #ubuntu-ops rather than here.
[05:34] <rjg_> der0b: I need to reboot my machine then I'll do the things you told me to and give you the output after rejoining....I'm having issues, so I'll get that for you in a sec.
[05:35] <bradley> LjL, okay. sorry i didn't know that such a thng existed.
[05:35] <cmt^^> !img
[05:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about img - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <rojosacerdotes> !justshootme
[05:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about justshootme - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <screechingcat> rojosacerdotes: edgy is extremely stable. but the upgrade process is not. i advice you not to upgrade unless you have the time and willingness to fix a few breakages afterwards
[05:35] <forsaker> hi :)
[05:35] <der0b> rjg_: I may not be here :(
[05:35] <mc44> !hi | forsaker
[05:35] <ubotu> forsaker: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:35] <rindolf> Hi all.
[05:35] <Music_Shuffle> Hi =] 
[05:36] <rindolf> Are there any Google employees here?
[05:36] <rojosacerdotes> screechingcat: yeah, i figured that. libc stuff, right?
[05:36] <bradley> LjL, thanks for getting me on track for controlling cpu usage. i appreciate the help.
[05:36] <zsh> hi. is there a way i can browse my phone through bluetooth on ubuntu like i can on kubuntu???
[05:36] <rjg_> ok, I'll ry to do this now then.
[05:36] <Yawner> Hmm, anyone know how to set which workspace a startup program appears on?
[05:36] <LjL> !offtopic | rindolf
[05:36] <ubotu> rindolf: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:36] <screechingcat> rojosacerdotes: so if you still want to upgrade , just run this command "update-manager -c"
[05:37] <mc44> rindolf: it is unlikely that there are, why do you ask?
[05:37] <screechingcat> rojosacerdotes: but i suggest backing up your data and doing a clean install of edgy or sticking with dapper for a while
[05:37] <ubuntu> what do you have to do to host a gnibbles network game ?
[05:37] <forsaker> is there any known problem about ttf-opensymbol... I'm getting a configure error... does anyone know something?
[05:37] <zsh> anyone?
[05:38] <rindolf> mc44: I'm looking for ones to report some Google Groups breakage + spam.
[05:38] <forsaker> the error is the following: http://rafb.net/paste/results/aUPg7i23.html
[05:38] <mc44> rindolf: this is not the right place at all
[05:38] <rindolf> mc44: OK.
[05:38] <rojosacerdotes> screechingcat: i'd have to stick with it until they froze it, though, right?
[05:38] <afief> ubuntu: usually just press file->start network game
[05:38] <mynameisdeleted> I'm prob gogin to end up with a dual core on multi-gigabit backbone
[05:39] <mynameisdeleted> how much load would it be to run an ubuntu rync mirror?
[05:39] <mynameisdeleted> and can there be a user limit
[05:39] <afief> LjL: does this make any sense for you? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38239/
[05:39] <mynameisdeleted> to maybe 10GB a day transfer?
[05:39] <mynameisdeleted> before the mirror dissappears from the list?
[05:39] <mc44> !enter | mynameisdeleted
[05:39] <ubotu> mynameisdeleted: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:39] <screechingcat> rojosacerdotes: i dint quite understand you there. come again ?

[05:40] <Yawner> Hmm, anyone know how to set which workspace a startup program appears on?
[05:41] <zsh> ok, does anyone know how i can browse my phone through bluetooth on ubuntu please...:)
[05:41] <afief> LjL: actually this is just the stinky normal gweled source package, there is no svn for it. i'll get you the supertux one in a minute
[05:41] <dfcarney> !lamp > dfcarney
[05:42] <Yawner> zsh: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:42] <LjL> afief: ah, it's the Edgy source package?
[05:42] <Yawner> zsh: I havent tried it, but thats the article I found, I would also do a few searches on the forums, there is bound to be something about it on there
[05:42] <ParaDoX34690> !lamp > paradox34690
[05:42] <zsh> Yawner: ok, thanks
[05:42] <afief> LjL, nope i downloaded it from the gweled webpage
[05:42] <ubuntu> whats the console gaim type program?

[05:44] <rjg____> derob: my computer crahsed, so I'm usign a differnet name, but I'm the same person
[05:45] <LjL> sory afief guess i'm multitasking a bit too much... let's start with supertux, since at least i've used that one, if not compiled it
[05:46] <afief> LjL, no problem, i appreciate your help. don't overload yourself with my trouble though
[05:46] <J_P> hi all.. people, anyone know one good dictionary for ubuntu from eng to pt , etc.. ?
[05:46] <LjL> !gdict
[05:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gdict - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:46] <LjL> hmm, sorry.
[05:46] <afief> LjL, I would appreciate it if we started with gweled though since the libcairo.so problem is keeping me from learning gtk+
[05:46] <LjL> actually i think there's a built-in dictionary as a panel applet

[05:48] <naylor> would anyone please be kind enough to help me? i have errors messages as there was a powercut while my computer was doing openoffice updates this morning...
[05:48] <xptweakerntn> long story, i reistalled ubuntu, and forgot how i got multimedia codecs installed. i installed this time two gstream things in the add/remove thing, but, it won't play in amarok.
[05:48] <ttoine> hey, men
[05:48] <sujan> hi, i am getting the following error message, while running a java app, how do i rectify that
[05:48] <sujan> Exception in thread "main" java.awt.AWTError: Cannot load AWT toolkit: gnu.java.awt.peer.gtk.GtkToolkit
[05:48] <ttoine> please, look at this ;-)
[05:48] <ttoine> http://ayo73.free.fr/ubuntustudio/logo-ubuntu-media-1700.png
[05:49] <afief> naylor: i think there is some command like dpkg --configure-all which should be able to fix it, but i don't remember the exact command
[05:49] <rojosacerdotes> xptweakerntn: see ubuntuguide.org
[05:49] <dfcarney> naylor: I don't have a lot of time, but what does the output of the 'dmesg' command say?  Can you post that to pastebin?
[05:49] <rjg____> der0b: the issue has corrected itself...THak you for your help/
[05:49] <sujan> in some list, i have seen they have asked for removal of gjc and instead install java from sun

[05:49] <FluxD> hi i am trying to make a screencast of my desktop? the ones I tried were istanbul and xvid cap both are not working for some reason what other ones are there?
[05:49] <dfcarney> naylor: Get what?  'dmesg' is just a command that you can run at the prompt (and it'll output a tonne of info).
[05:50] <rojosacerdotes> you could have told me yourself, you know
[05:50] <dfcarney> naylor: I'm worried that you may have filesystem corruption.
[05:50] <rjg____> der0b: it updated fine except now I just og t a error. Ill pastebin it as you wish.
[05:50] <naylor> dfcarney, http://pastebin.ca/287614
[05:50] <afief> ttoine: that's cute, is the SVG(or whatever format) accessable for the public?
[05:50] <naylor> dfcarney, i did do an fsck after and it fixed a couple errors
[05:50] <LjL> afief, main problem is that gweled requires not only GTK, but the whole of GNOME, and i don't really feel like getting that, being a KDE user...
[05:51] <naylor> afief, shall i try the command you just gave me?
[05:51] <afief> LjL, then i shall fetch the supertux link
[05:51] <rjg____> der0b: pastebined.
[05:51] <Arin> hello, can someone help me with sharing adsl connection for ubuntu ?
[05:52] <naylor> afief, it doesn't seem to do anything...
[05:52] <afief> naylor: i doubt it will work, but you should be able to find something similar in your man dpkg
[05:52] <dfcarney> naylor: eek.
[05:52] <Arin> I have a pc with ubuntu connected via adsl, and I'd like to share the connection with another machine (also with ubuntu)
[05:52] <naylor> dfcarney, eek?
[05:52] <dfcarney> naylor: It would seem that the fsck wasn't perfect.
[05:52] <Pyru> Hello I am new to linux and ubuntu, can someone  please help me to get my dvd playback working! thanks
[05:52] <naylor> dfcarney, why what's the problem?
[05:52] <afief> LjL: svn://svn.berlios.de/supertux/trunk
[05:53] <dfcarney> naylor: I mean, if you have warnings about missing directories and the like after an fsck it generally means that you've lost something important.
[05:53] <AcidStriker> afief: sorry, my boss called me.
[05:53] <BlackHawk> hi
[05:53] <afief> !restrictedformats > Pyru
[05:53] <naylor> dfcarney, what should i do?
[05:53] <AcidStriker> afief: I try to do an apt-get install openssl-dev but It said that it couldn't find the package
[05:53] <afief> AcidStrike, i think the package name was libssl-dev
[05:54] <AcidStriker> afief: will try that
[05:54] <dfcarney> naylor: Let me look through the original pastebin linkl...gimme a sec.
[05:54] <rjg____> der0b: thanks a million for you help..
[05:54] <afief> AcidStrike, searching for stuff in synaptic or apt-cache can do wonders;)
[05:54] <naylor> dfcarney, do i have missing dirs? is it just not the updates that got wrecked in the powercut and didn't finish?
[05:54] <Pyru> afief: I read up on restricted formats but I am new to linux, this is my first day and I'm still lost , just curious if someone can help me get dvd playback working then I can read up more :) thanks
[05:54] <naylor> dfcarney, thanks
[05:54] <DJAdmiral> Hey - how does one connect to Optusnet on Ubuntu?
[05:54] <afief> Pyru, Can you open a command line?
[05:54] <Pyru> yes
[05:55] <dfcarney> naylor: Does /usr/share/fonts exist?  What happens when you type "ls /usr/share/fonts"?
[05:55] <afief> okay do that, i'll fetch you a command that _should_ solve your problem(a magic potion:P)
[05:55] <Angryelf_> hey everyone -- im' having an interesting issue here on this one computer
[05:55] <naylor> dfcarney, i get: fonts.cache-1  truetype  type1  X11
[05:55] <Pyru> wicked, thank you afief
[05:55] <Angryelf_> when I Crtl + Alt + F1 the screen goes crazy -- no prompt, just horizontal and vertical lines/artifacts etc....any ideas?
[05:56] <xan> alguien que hable espaol
[05:56] <Pyru> angry: graphics card driver maybe?
[05:56] <xan> necesito ayuda urgente
[05:56] <nette> hey: i know this is a question for another channel, but noone wants to help: has anyone installed beryl on ubuntu edgy on ATI graphic card??
[05:56] <mc44> !es | xan
[05:56] <ubotu> xan: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[05:56] <Angryelf_> Pyru: standard driver, fresh install -- i've tried installing fglrx but then it won't boot to a prompt -- it hangs during the Ubuntu splash logo
[05:56] <staniel> hello, folks! Don't know how this works... do I just ask a question to anyone in general or is there some one here specifically I need to ask
[05:57] <mc44> !beryl | nette
[05:57] <ubotu> nette: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[05:57] <rdz> hello all. how can i found out which package a certain file is part of?
[05:57] <pike_> !ask| staniel
[05:57] <ubotu> staniel: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:57] <dfcarney> naylor: Well, first thing you need to do is to figure out the cause of those errors that dpkg emits.  I believe that dpkg will output a log in /var/log/dpkg.log -- check that
[05:57] <pike_> staniel: fire away
[05:57] <nette> mc44, ive tried every "walkthrough" but nothing works..just wondered if anyone had tried!

[05:57] <h0ndaracer2> :
[05:57] <h0ndaracer2> ?
[05:57] <staniel> I have a question, just need to know who to ask
[05:57] <h0ndaracer2> just ask the question
[05:57] <mc44> nette: try in #ubuntu-sgl
[05:58] <mc44> nette: try in #ubuntu-xgl
[05:58] <Pyru> afief: just curious if your still with me here :)
[05:58] <mads2> hi
[05:58] <lumaQQ> Q: is there an easy way to convert all music files to OGG?  im using about 100 MP3 files that i want in OGG.....any help anyone?
[05:58] <dfcarney> naylor: to fix the problem, it may be as simple as removing and re-installing some packages.  If there was a lot of data lost, however, you may have to reinstall (though I doubt it).
[05:58] <mads2> how do i mount iso files in linux?
[05:58] <nette> mc44, yeah im in that channel but noone wants to help
[05:58] <h0ndaracer2> you dont have to ask to ask questions
[05:58] <pike_> staniel: if its related to ubuntu just ask the room and someone will probably pick it up
[05:58] <staniel> ok. I just installed linux on a desktop... the install never asked me to provide  a password for root
[05:58] <mads2> i got this .iso that i need to mount to /cdrom
[05:58] <Angryelf_> mad2 mount -t iso9660 ...
[05:58] <afief> Pyru: i am, but my connection is quite overwhelmed
[05:58] <mads2> thanks
[05:58] <dfcarney> naylor: Ultimately, you're going to need to spend some time tracking down what data was lost and then figure out how to get it back.
[05:58] <mc44> !ogg2mp3 | lumaQQ
[05:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ogg2mp3 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:58] <naylor> dfcarney, would you mind taking a quick look at my pastebin of that file?
[05:58] <mc44> !mp32ogg | lumaQQ
[05:58] <ubotu> mp32ogg: Converts MP3 file to Ogg Vorbis. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11-7 (edgy), package size 7 kB, installed size 64 kB
[05:59] <staniel> so my question is ... what is my root password
[05:59] <mc44> lumaQQ: see above
[05:59] <dfcarney> naylor: which file?
[05:59] <pike_> staniel: the root account is disabled. use "sudo command" instead see the following link
[05:59] <pike_> !root | staniel
[05:59] <ubotu> staniel: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:59] <dfcarney> naylor: the log?  sure, post it.
[05:59] <lumaQQ> MC44 yeah but i dont understand a single word of that...  is it just me or does it make no sence?
[05:59] <lumaQQ> Vorbis?  MC44 >  i need vorbis?
[05:59] <naylor> dfcarney, yeah the log, it's not posting though, pastebin taking a while...
[06:00] <staniel> will do. thank you
[06:00] <mc44> lumaQQ: you want to turn mp3 into ogg right?
[06:00] <h0ndaracer2> anyone no what happened to igniteds.net
[06:00] <lumaQQ> mc44   right
[06:00] <h0ndaracer2> the forum
[06:00] <h0ndaracer2> it get hacked
[06:00] <mc44> lumaQQ: then "sudo apt-get install mp32ogg" in a terminal
[06:00] <afief> Pyru: use this command: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs ogle ogle-gui
[06:01] <markeib> hey
[06:01] <rojosacerdotes> do ubuntu branches match up with debian? for instance, is dapper = uh, woody? that kind of thing?
[06:01] <Pyru> afief: E: Couldn't find package gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
[06:01] <markeib> how can i make nautilus shorten the names of my files in the symbols view?
[06:01] <staniel> is there a way to copy and paste this text?
[06:01] <afief> Pyru: did you enable the universe/multiverse repositories?
[06:02] <Akuma_> what's the best wireless monitor app?
[06:02] <jhaig> rojosacerdotes: I doubt it as ubuntu has 6 month release cycle, while debian has a "when it's ready" release cycle.
[06:02] <lumaQQ> mc$$  ~~  then?
[06:02] <Pyru> I havn't , I don't know how to :( sorry
[06:02] <lumaQQ> mc44 ~~  then?
[06:02] <rojosacerdotes> jhaig: so ubuntu has its own developers then - based on but separate from debian?
[06:02] <pike_> staniel: if your in a terminal window ctrl-shift-c or in gui just ctrl-c
[06:02] <BrokenPipe> Ubuntu has suddenly started crashing as soon as I start it up.  Is there a way to check if there's something wrong with the version in Ubuntu?
[06:02] <naylor> dfcarney, i don't get it, none of pastebins seem to be responding, is it cos it's too much text?
[06:02] <staniel> thanx pike
[06:02] <pike_> staniel: np
[06:02] <BrokenPipe> heh
[06:02] <mc44> lumaQQ: then run mp32ogg filename
[06:03] <BrokenPipe> *Azureus* has suddenly started crashing as soon as I start it up.  Is there a way to check if there's something wrong with the version in Ubuntu?
[06:03] <Pyru> k there enabled them
[06:03] <bradley> LjL, after all of that i seem to have lost the last thing you said about renice. do you remember what it was?
[06:03] <Pyru> now it has to get the updates
[06:03] <jhaig> rojosacerdotes: I think ubuntu is based more on debian testing or unstable, which has more up to date packages
[06:03] <mc44> lumaQQ: to convert a file, i.e mp32ogg a.m3
[06:03] <lumaQQ> mc44  ~  is there no prgram that will do this for me?
[06:03] <Pyru> enabled them via synaptic
[06:03] <Pyru> am i going about it correct?
[06:03] <LjL> bradley: i think the last thing was that, instead of starting the program and *then* use renice, you can start the program directly using "nice -n 10 program-name"
[06:03] <roho> jhaig: but will ubuntu go its own way then? or do they base things on debian packages?
[06:03] <dfcarney> naylor: i don't know.
[06:03] <LjL> bradley: from a shell, of course. not sure if that can be put into the GNOME menu
[06:03] <mc44> lumaQQ: ok "sudo apt-get soundconverter" then run soundconverter, that should be easier
[06:03] <afief> pyru: yes but do an apt-get update first or press the synaptic reload button(please write my name when you address me so i can distinguish you from others)
[06:04] <bradley> LjL, yeah, perfect.
[06:04] <mc44> lumaQQ: ok "sudo apt-get install soundconverter" rather
[06:04] <dfcarney> naylor: does the log file have any obvious errors?
[06:04] <naylor> dfcarney, yeah it says it's over one meg!!
[06:04] <dfcarney> naylor: well, that would do it.
[06:04] <Pyru> afief: alright sorry, i enabled then pressed the refresh button now it is downloading some files
[06:04] <naylor> dfcarney, there's stacks and stacks of half-configured this, that and the other stuff
[06:04] <jhaig> roho: I'm not an ubuntu or debian developer, so I don't know for certain, but I think ubuntu is based on debian and passes back updates, so they should stay fairly close.
[06:04] <Pyru> afief: package information to be exact :P
[06:04] <afief> Pyru: this is the list of packages in the repositories:)
[06:05] <roho> ok
[06:05] <roho> i wonder whether ubuntu will separate from debian eventually
[06:05] <LjL> bradley: "10" is just an example of course. basically, 0 is the normal priority for user processes; positive priorities mean the process get *less* CPU time for them, and negative priorities means they get *more*. i suggest that if you ever use negative priorities you never go below -3, or you could interfer with system processes easily
[06:05] <afief> roho: i hope not
[06:05] <LjL> bradley: it might be confusing, but a *lower* number means a *higher* priority
[06:06] <roho> afief: why not?
[06:06] <dfcarney> naylor: Well, without knowing much about your exact problem, start by removing the ttf-opensymbol package and purging all of the .deb files.
[06:06] <jhaig> I suspect that a lot of ubuntu packages are simply taken from debian testing and repackaged.
[06:06] <roho> yeah
[06:06] <mads2> do i need some kind of daemon tools alike program in linux to make a program think the .iso file is actually the cdrom?
[06:06] <numist> I suspect that they aren't even repackaged so much as copied
[06:06] <roho> jhaig: that's what it feels like
[06:06] <mads2> im trying to install unreal tournament 2004.
[06:07] <afief> roho: debian is like the part that ensures ubuntu's stability IMO. also there are lots of great tools that ubuntu gets from debian(apt?)
[06:07] <roho> well, when i ran debian, i had to configure a lot of things; whereas with ubuntu, configuration for some things were already done for me
[06:07] <bradley> LjL, it's not quite intuitive but it makes sense :)
[06:07] <pike_> mads2: example:  sudo mount -o loop /home/user/file.iso /media/cdrom
[06:07] <naylor> dfcarney, well here is a little bit of the log: http://pastebin.ca/287628
[06:07] <mads2> thanks pike_
[06:07] <numist> roho: that just means that ubuntu defaults to a higher level of 'dont bug me' in dpkg
[06:07] <afief> roho: that's because debian is for professionals ONLY
[06:08] <roho> afief: well, i could use debian fine
[06:08] <numist> roho: not necessarily that anything changed
[06:08] <roho> just with ubuntu i didn't have to spend inordinate amounts of time getting things to work
[06:08] <roho> the only hardware i have that i can't figure out is this palm m130
[06:08] <naylor> dfcarney, all the openoffice stuff is there
[06:08] <afief> roho: imagine all the ubuntu users who are crying about their mp3 files... how would they manage with debian?
[06:08] <LjL> bradley: well the idea is that (as the command suggest) you're really giving a level of "niceness" for the process rather than a priority. though it's really a priority at the end of the day. by the way, for priority 10, you don't even need the "-n 10", you can just type "nice program-name", because 10 is the default for the 'nice' command
[06:08] <dfcarney> naylor: try "sudo dpkg -r ttf-opensymbol"
[06:08] <mc44> roho: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship
[06:08] <roho> afief: they are? heh.
[06:08] <numist> afief: add the non-free repos and bam, done?
[06:09] <roho> mc44: much thanks
[06:09] <Pyru> afief: after i have finished downloading the package information do i run a sudo apt-get update via the terminal then run the command you pasted?
[06:09] <afief> numist: true, but they'd be yelled at for installing none-GPL software in the debian world, wouldn't they?
[06:09] <numist> afief: yeah and so would I.  *shrug*
[06:09] <naylor> dfcarney, http://pastebin.ca/287632
[06:09] <LjL> bradley: the original idea was that, on multi-user machines, users who needed to run CPU intensive jobs would be "nice" to other users, and start them using "nice". of course, nobody really did that ;)
[06:09] <numist> afief: anyone who wants everything and wants it to work uses the non-free repos
[06:10] <afief> Pyru: apt-get update is essentially what you've just done. it updates the information about the packages. use the long command i pasted
[06:10] <dfcarney> naylor: well, at least we've narrowed the problem down.
[06:10] <Pyru> afief: curious why my wireless is so slow on ubuntu, and my volume is not performing loud like it should and everything is set to max for volume? do you have any advice/help
[06:11] <naylor> dfcarney, really?
[06:11] <afief> numist: true, but debian is too religious about the gpl for most users here. although i've used it for some time and might go back to it after my trouble with the current edgy(i've already put more time in it than a debian installation)
[06:11] <pike_> Pyru: from terminal type "alsamixer"  to set vol maybe
[06:11] <markeib> how can i make nautilus shorten the names of my files in the symbols view?
[06:11] <dfcarney> naylor: I've got to run -- I'm sorry that I can't stick around to help.  If you can figure out why that dpkg -r command gives those errors, you'll likely be on your way to fixing your system.
[06:11] <numist> afief: it's too gpl religious for me too, but that doesnt mean I'll stop using it as long as that repos is around.  I actually dont like the gpl at all
[06:11] <naylor> dfcarney, ok thanks for your help
[06:11] <dfcarney> naylor: good luck :)  I'm sure that someone in this forum can help.
[06:12] <Pyru> pike_: all are at maximum
[06:12] <afief> pyru: try running alsamixer in the command line. there raise volume to the maximum
[06:12] <bradley> LjL, i interpreted it as the one process is going to be nice (on a scale of 0-10) to the other processes. and the negative numbers is negative niceness.
[06:12] <naylor> can anyone please help me out, dfcarney found the prob but he's gotta go and i don't have a clue what's going on!
[06:12] <un_operateur> hey naylor, i see you are here again with more questions :)
[06:12] <pike_> Pyru: there is a boost there that might help
[06:12] <un_operateur> naylor, whats the matter?
[06:12] <WizCraker> is there a way to install net-snmp 5.4 without compiling?  I installed with apt-get and it did 5.2.2 which is out of date.
[06:12] <bradley> LjL, or invasiveness.
[06:12] <naylor> un_operateur, my man! how's it going... hope you can help
[06:13] <afief> numist: you better not say that in a linux related channel:D i know it's workable, but lets face it: the newbies around ubuntu just don't want to put the work debian requires into their PCs
[06:13] <afief> Pyru: then i'm clueless
[06:13] <Music_Shuffle> No no.
[06:13] <Intelligitimate> Why does Evolution Mail suck so bad? It's even worse than Outlook.
[06:13] <Music_Shuffle> Its not that we don't want to put in the work.
[06:13] <Music_Shuffle> Its that you can get just as good a result with less. ;p
[06:13] <naylor> un_operateur, i've got this error: http://pastebin.ca/287632   i've got about a ton of errors infact
[06:13] <buzzed> what is the easiest way to get the latest java sdk?
[06:13] <LjL> bradley: yeah, that's about it really... normally, negative levels are only for processes owned by root (note that, as a normal user, you can only *increase* the niceness, i.e. decrease the priority, never the contrary)
[06:13] <Intelligitimate> I have to navigate through a gigantic menu of crap to subscribe and unscribe to newsgroups, and there is no yEnc support.
[06:14] <numist> afief: thats the odd thing though.. I did an install last week (first testing install I'd done in a while, things stopped breaking on me), and after adding non-free to apt, adding the missing packages I want, and configuring things like postfix, sudo, users, and svn, it was done!  it took under an hour to get going
[06:14] <un_operateur> WizCraker, debian/ubuntu usually lag behind on releases -- they are not bleeding-edge distros -- they aim for stability rather than concurrency
[06:14] <afief> intelligitimate: if you have any suggestions how it would suck less feel free to tell us or the devs about it
[06:14] <naylor> un_operateur, i aint a clue what is going on really, it's just errors galore!! power cut this morning while updating openoffice... and now loads of probs with dependencies and stuff
[06:14] <pike_> Pyru: for the wireless you might "cat /etc/resolv.conf" you normally should only have one nameserver that is typically like "nameserver 192.168.1.0" if you have more just type "dig google.com" and the nameserver that it uses is the one to keep just remove the others
[06:14] <virus> Something is going pretty wrong here. I'm trying to set up a new ubuntu system - used exactly the same /etc/apt/sources.list, but the package "mbr" won't show up. I checked the packages.ubuntu.com archives and edgy really got such package - so it isn't just a legacy package installed on the other system.
[06:14] <numist> afief: it was whoa-fast
[06:15] <Intelligitimate> Yeah, I'd like to be able to right click on a newsgroup and have it unsubscribe, and not have to spend 10 minutes going through a menu to unsubscribe it.
[06:15] <LjL> bradley: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nice_(Unix) has some more details
[06:15] <Intelligitimate> And I'd like to be able to actually --type-- in the name of a newsgroup I want to subscribe to.
[06:15] <virus> "apt-get update && apt-cache search ^mbr$" gives no result. :-/
[06:15] <bradley> LjL, great i'll check it out now!
[06:15] <afief> numist: an hour after you finished the installation? my brothers would scream if they had to write any command line, not to mention work for an hour
[06:15] <WizCraker> un_operateur: okay thanks for the info.  I guess I'll try compiling again and see if it works this time around.  apparently a Cisco mib requires the newer version.  :(
[06:15] <Intelligitimate> Imagine that! Typing in the name of the newsgroup I want...
[06:15] <jhaig> buzzed: Can you install java SDK with EasyUbuntu?
[06:15] <un_operateur> naylor, sudo :)
[06:16] <buzzed> i think that is a plugin for the browser
[06:16] <numist> afief: I suppose that's true.  It could have been done all in gui (sans svn, but this is a server).
[06:16] <faust_> jhaig: EasyUbuntu is pretty much over. The repos they use are down.
[06:16] <mario> hiiii
[06:16] <mario> german ??
[06:16] <naylor> un_operateur, dude you're the man!
[06:16] <un_operateur> WizCraker, what cisco hardware are you polling?
[06:16] <jhaig> buzzed: (I don't know, but if you can it is probably the easiest way).
[06:16] <faust_> jhaig: Try automatix2 instead.
[06:16] <wahl> damn, my beryl has lagged:S when i try to start it ( it worked last time ) my cpu reboots:S
[06:16] <wahl> how to fix it?
[06:16] <LjL> !automatix | faust, jhaig
[06:16] <Pyru> afief: one thing I wish to accomplish also and I'll live with ubuntu and learn as much as possible is maybe installing wine and getting WoW to work, is this a hard task?
[06:16] <ubotu> faust, jhaig: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[06:16] <buzzed> i think this is what i am looking for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
[06:16] <numist> afief: thing is, I get stuck with ubuntu...  its less user-friendly to me
[06:16] <naylor> un_operateur, sudo what?
[06:16] <jhaig> faust: I used it about a week ago to install media stuff.
[06:16] <afief> numist: still the tools would be beyond the scope of the normal user
[06:16] <numist> afief: yeah :/
[06:16] <un_operateur> naylor, sudo that command you are trying :)
[06:17] <naylor> un_operateur, i did sudo it though
[06:17] <mario> deutsch ??
[06:17] <afief> Intelligitimate: so it's an interface problem. please post them to the devs. interface design is something every developer sucks at, they'll appreciate the advice
[06:17] <naylor> un_operateur, http://pastebin.ca/287632
[06:17] <faust_> ubotu: Automatix states that that is a bunch of FUD coming from #ubuntu. Haven't seen it wreck anything yet.
[06:17] <numist> afief: for folks that are doing linux because they want to do linux (as opposed to replace osx/win), I think that's the nobler way to learn though
[06:17] <trinkolade> mario, #ubunut-de
[06:17] <afief> Intelligitimate: (I don't use newsgroups so i am unaffected)
[06:17] <Intelligitimate> What is a good newsreader? Because Evolution Mail absolutely sucks.
[06:17] <WizCraker> un_operateur: 1841 using the CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB and keeps giving me Did not find 'zeroDotZero' in module SNMPv2-SMI (/usr/share/snmp/mibs/DISMAN-EVENT-MIB.txt).
[06:18] <JulieJulie> Hii
[06:18] <naylor> un_operateur, here's the original error the other guy was helping me out with from this morning: http://pastebin.ca/287546
[06:18] <LjL> faust_: please just don't recommend it in here, however you feel about it.
[06:18] <gouki> Are there any Ubuntu members around?
[06:18] <Kesman> how could I after starting an application from terminal, then close the terminal without the application to get shut down too?
[06:18] <JulieJulie> I have made 3 boot up disks already for ubuntu checked the the sums and all of that and its still not working?
[06:18] <pike_> Intelligitimate: alot of people use pan.  back when i got my tv shows off usenet before torrent its what i used
[06:18] <JulieJulie> Any advice? heh.
[06:18] <un_operateur> Wiseguy, IIRC you can download the MIBs for the particular hardware from Cisco's website
[06:18] <afief> numist: well, who cares how noble it is? as long as average joe can get the grip on it with little effort he'll use it, he might learn more advanced stuff later(that's my case)
[06:18] <Intelligitimate> sudo apt-get install pan then?
[06:18] <un_operateur> WizCraker, ^^
[06:18] <pike_> Intelligitimate: yep
[06:19] <numist> afief: this might be me being an ass, but I'm not a huge proponent of all the average joes using linux
[06:19] <Kesman> how could I close terminal without closing the application that I ran from it?
[06:19] <tybalt> How do I make synaptic update my IceWM menu automatically?
[06:19] <numist> afief: its good when they're interested enough to put back in, as you clearly are, but I believe it can ruin the community
[06:19] <LjL> afief: supertux configured for me. had to install libphysfs-dev and libopenal-dev
[06:19] <Rookie_> use %
[06:20] <kspath> pike_ are you jay?
[06:20] <naylor> un_operateur, i'm getting a load of stress from these powercuts, had a few the last few days and causing big problemos - muy malo!!
[06:20] <pike_> Kesman: either like: firefox &    or nohup firefox
[06:20] <pike_> kspath: nope
[06:20] <afief> intelligitimate: it would help if you wrote ther person's name in the beginning of the post, it helps users figure out what's addressed to them on busy days
[06:20] <Kesman> pike_: thanks
[06:21] <kspath> naylor: consider buying a UPS and/or power conditioner to minimize impact
[06:21] <afief> LjL: this is weird, i am sure i haven't made any bigger changes to my installation(yet) and still it can't find sdl-image:S
[06:21] <LjL> afief: perhaps just install all the sdl-related -dev packages you can find ;)
[06:21] <faust_> LjL: I'm just saying that I've ran it on a good number of computers and never seen it break, so maybe a retest and reevaluation of the statements made by the bot is in order. After all, projects change and improve all the time. Wasn't that many years ago Ubuntu was a horrible Debian fork noone wanted to use. I tried it and threw it away a number of times, but now it's my preferred distro. Things change.
[06:21] <wahl> how to make beryl auto-start? :)
[06:21] <Akuma_> my laptop's fan doesn't seem to rest. any tips on how i can go about fixing that?
[06:21] <un_operateur> naylor, -- can you pastebin this -- ls -ld /usr/share/fonts  /usr/share/X11/fonts  /usr/local/share/fonts
[06:21] <naylor> kspath, normally it's not a prob but last couple days been a nightmare
[06:22] <WizCraker> un_operateur: I know, and I did.  I was following the documentation from Cisco.  They don't exactly explain what to do for a "what if I get... error."
[06:22] <afief> numist: i'm of two minds in this case, to get better driver and software support we _need_ the average joes, but as long as they stick to ubuntu and don't go to debian i'm fine.
[06:22] <wahl> how to make beryl auto-start? :)
[06:22] <Pyru> afief: Totem cannot play this type of media (DVD) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it.
[06:22] <un_operateur> naylor, I think you might like to invest in a UPS :)
[06:22] <naylor> un_operateur, http://pastebin.ca/287645
[06:22] <Pyru> this is after running the command and after it installed everything
[06:22] <tim167> i have a program complaining it cannot find libdpstk.so.1, how do I get/install that file ?
[06:22] <Music_Shuffle> !patience | wahl
[06:22] <ubotu> wahl: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[06:22] <Music_Shuffle> wahl, are you on Gnome?
[06:22] <numist> afief: I can agree with that.  Ubuntu has had a reasonably positive effect on debian, and its been kept mostly for power users and servers
[06:23] <faust_> wahl: on gnome it's quite easy. System->Preferences->Sessions, add beryl-manager to the autostart list.
[06:23] <Music_Shuffle> On KDE you just have to drag it into the .autostart folder too. :o
[06:23] <wahl> tyy:P
[06:23] <afief> numist: now if only the hardware makers would be swayed to include the firmware in flashmemory on the hardware itself... that would be great
[06:24] <afief> Pyru: let me check if i missed anything
[06:24] <un_operateur> WizCraker, I'm not familiar with that package but usually what you do is pop the MIB spec files into a dir and get the program to update/scan them and you should be ready to go
[06:24] <Intelligitimate> pike: Pan already looks like a life-saver.
[06:24] <numist> afief: oh that would be something, wouldn't it
[06:24] <AcidStriker> How do I add a url so that apt-get searh in it?
[06:25] <tim167> where can i find libdpstk.so.1 ? cant find it with synaptic or dpkg
[06:25] <pike_> Intelligitimate: yeah i never could stand mailclient/newsreaders
[06:25] <afief> Intelligitimate: still, your suggestions could save other users. i'd encourage you to post them to the evolution devs
[06:25] <Intelligitimate> pike_: I can *gasp* search for what I want! And it does yEnc!
[06:25] <numist> evolution >_<
[06:25] <wahl> now i must get wine working
[06:25] <naylor> un_operateur, was that output any use to you?
[06:25] <afief> numist: that would be huge! i'm fighting with my wireless card because of some firmware issues here
[06:26] <numist> afief: what card?
[06:26] <faust_> AcidStriker: if it's a repository you add the pertinent info to /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:26] <afief> numist: don't remember the name but it uses ipw2200, which used to work in dapper but has problems in edgy
[06:26] <numist> afief: to tell the truth, last time I needed something that Just Worked, I installed FC5 on the night of its release on my laptop...  it only lasted until the quarter was done, but it was pretty amazing.  I hate yum so much after all these years.
[06:26] <numist> yeah, the ipw2200 worked for me in moments, but never tried in ubuntu :(
[06:26] <faust_> AcidStriker: pull up the console and type man sources.list . Then read.
[06:27] <un_operateur> naylor, 2 secs
[06:27] <wahl> !wine
[06:27] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:27] <h0ndaracer2> hey does ubuntu already come with python or do i needto download it from active state
[06:27] <WizCraker> un_operateur: yeah I'm thinking it is a versioning error.  As you said debian/ubuntu runs stable and not bleeding edge.. guess I'll look at a different version or figure out the compiling errors.
[06:27] <afief> numist: i tried to install fedora4, it had huge problems
[06:27] <nimbo> hey did someone give lg3d a shot? how do i install the packages from my local hdd?
[06:27] <numist> afief: thats an understatement
[06:27] <WizCraker> un_operateur: thanks for your help by the way.
[06:27] <un_operateur> WizCraker, python already exists on every modern distro
[06:28] <zero> ubuntu-es
[06:28] <afief> numist: perhaps you have a suggestion how to state it correctly? :-)
[06:28] <un_operateur> WizCraker, you are welcome - by the way :)
[06:28] <Pyru> afief: totem can't play it , but when i use gxine it reads the disk but then freezes with a message that i cannot see because it's frozen :P
[06:28] <WizCraker> un_operateur: python does snmp?
[06:28] <numist> afief: not with children in the channel :)
[06:28] <Music_Shuffle> lol
[06:28] <numist> afief: fc5 was quite slick once I got the non free repos (see a recurring theme?)
[06:28] <un_operateur> WizCraker, there are snmp bindings for python -- so it does so indirectly, yes
[06:28] <pike_> Pyru: i normally use mplayer but vlc is nice as it comes with all its own codecs and such
[06:29] <afief> Pyru: is your DVD encrypted?
[06:29] <un_operateur> naylor, I'd like you to try this -- sudo aptitude remove fontconfig
[06:29] <Pyru> afief: don't think so =/
[06:29] <akerr0r> i goofed Konversation somehow.. when i try to connect to a server via SSL i get a certificate info dialog that won't go away :(
[06:29] <grigore> stie cineva romana?
[06:29] <un_operateur> naylor, or this rather -- sudo aptitude purge fontconfig
[06:29] <Pyru> afief: no demuxer found error i get
[06:29] <JulieJulie> Not to be a pain but could anyone help me out?
[06:29] <Intelligitimate> pike_: thank you so much. This is like 100x better.
[06:29] <a> hi
[06:29] <afief> numist: argh! if you say it once more i might go off and start coding replacements for the "none free" stuff(which would lead to me failing in college)
[06:30] <pike_> Intelligitimate: np
[06:30] <numist> afief: I've already done that, it's not worth it :)
[06:30] <satna> verdammt, was ist hier los?
[06:30] <afief> Pyru, that is weird... perhaps you should try VLC like pike_ said, it's amazing how much stuff works painlessly under it
[06:31] <leandro-1> i havent borders wehn activate beryl! whats the problem?
[06:31] <afief> numist: how dare you say that?! thou hast abandoned the spirit of Linux
[06:31] <leandro-1> i havent windows borders wehn activate beryl! whats the problem?
[06:31] <naylor> un_operateur, it's give me a couple of "do you wanna try harder cos no solution?" questions...
[06:31] <numist> afief: nah, I simply converted to the spirit of BSD/MIT :P
[06:32] <numist> afief: as long as it all works and people come together for the spirit, that's ok with me
[06:32] <afief> leandro-1: patience, people need a minute to look up solutions!
[06:32] <leandro-1> yeap you right
[06:32] <Music_Shuffle> afief, LIES! We're all incredibly skilled robots. :P
[06:32] <un_operateur> naylor, you are probably going to have to do that -- choose a solution that is least harmful and select it
[06:32] <tim167> i'm still looking for this package: "libdpstk.so.1" can anyone help ?
[06:32] <Pyru> oh nice, I didn't see this add/remove this is a handy feature I take it? VLC is in the list
[06:32] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, Emerald..
[06:32] <afief> numist: still, i'd prefer it if the world were GPL, or at least wouldn't hide the code in binary blobs
[06:33] <leandro-1> music_shuffle, i update emerald, i download new themes, but nothing!
[06:33] <naylor> un_operateur, i've pressed yes three times and still no solutions... how do i know what is least harmful etc?
[06:33] <Music_Shuffle> Did yo uload Emerald?
[06:33] <dpro> hi
[06:33] <numist> afief: thats the problem with the GPL.  it's got a quest to take over the world -- it's the Napolean of licenses...  it's virality is the very thing that turns people off
[06:33] <leandro-1> how to do?
[06:33] <justin_> gam_server - is leaking mem, and using up 20-70% CPU what can I do? - killall simply makes it restart at the exact same mem level CPU --- and this is constant even when I reboot .. or have nothing but the DE running.
[06:33] <leandro-1> in terminal write "emerald"
[06:33] <Pyru> afief: is installing wine to work with WoW a hard process on Ubuntu?
[06:33] <afief> numist: there is LGPL too you know
[06:34] <pike_> Pyru: vlc is nice for streaming stuff too. on my crappy upload connection i can stream movies to my work computer from home using theora
[06:34] <numist> afief: oh I know..  all my libs are lgpl
[06:34] <Pyru> pike_: that's wicked
[06:34] <Pyru> thanks
[06:34] <numist> or MIT
[06:34] <numist> hrm
[06:34] <HentaiSushi> i need help
[06:34] <afief> Pyru: i am not a WoW player, but last time i checked there was some patch you need to apply
[06:34] <un_operateur> naylor, the least harmful one in this situation would be the one that removes/downgrades the least amount of other packages
[06:34] <HentaiSushi> i cannot see anything on my moniter during boot up
[06:34] <dpro> since /etc/inittab seems to be gone in 6.10 how would one go about redirecting serial console logging to a tty ? (i,e, in inittab speak sth. like "s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100"  any hints ?
[06:34] <leandro-1> music_shuffle i write in terminal "emerald" it is ok?
[06:34] <Music_Shuffle> Umm
[06:34] <afief> Pyru: tell you what, add the wine repository(and update the lists) then do apt-get install wine; winecfg
[06:34] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, do...
[06:35] <numist> afief: but how many production pieces of software are lgpl?  the gpl even viralizes/cannibalizes the lgpl given the chance, if I read the fine print correctly
[06:35] <un_operateur> dpro, Edgy no longer uses init to boot -- thats why theres no inittab
[06:35] <afief> numist: cool, what did you write?
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, emerald --replace &
[06:35] <leandro-1> then beryl_manager?
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> In a terminal.
[06:35] <naylor> un_operateur, so if i keep scanning will it eventually find a solution and ask me if i wanna do it then?
[06:35] <Pyru> afief: alright after I finish installing vlc, says 10 minutes remaining =/
[06:35] <numist> afief: I write a lot of c libs here that my friends package into their software
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> beryl-manager too.
[06:35] <leandro-1> emerald & beryl_manager??
[06:35] <dpro> un_operateur: so what's the alternative way of accomplishing the serial console -> tty redirect ?
[06:35] <naylor> un_operateur, i've hit yes loads of times now...
[06:35] <afief> Pyru, sorry i might not be here by then, i've not had lunch yet and it's 7:35 PM(the life of a university student:(
[06:35] <numist> afief: a touch of java, and then a bunch of crap in a billion languages
[06:35] <leandro-1> Music_Shuffle, emerald & beryl_manager??
[06:36] <afief> numist: i wanna see i wanna see:D
[06:36] <dpro> un_operateur: I have this running in qemu but I'd really like to see the output ;)
[06:36] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, are you on Edgy?
[06:36] <Pyru> afief: :( alright maybe you can private message me steps to do? if you have the time now
[06:36] <leandro-1> Music_Shuffle,  yeap
[06:36] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/BerylOnEdgy#Enable_compositing_in_X
[06:36] <Pyru> afief: then I could read up on it :P
[06:36] <numist> afief: the fastest hash table in the west is in there, I think
[06:36] <un_operateur> naylor, well, the idea is that it presents the solution it thinks is best for you first and as you go on they become worse -- but thats not always the case from a user standpoint -- so i guess you keep going -- if by the 20th one it doesnt find one, give up
[06:36] <Music_Shuffle> Use that guide.
[06:36] <numist> afief: I broke it though..  need to finish that
[06:36] <afief> numist: i am still a wannabe dev, no time to advance very much because of my life(or lack thereof) as a university student
[06:36] <JulieJulie> My bootdisk and several others I have made doesn't boot up when is restarted?
[06:37] <afief> numist: do you have a link where i can read about this stuff?
[06:37] <numist> afief: thats the best time though
[06:37] <dpro> un_operateur: I've seen /etc/event.d/ that has files named tty* but I'm not really sure what I'm doing ... ;)
[06:37] <numist> afief: not really
[06:37] <leandro-1> ok, i do the posible, mi english suck hehe
[06:37] <justin_> Has the gam_server memory leak been addressed yet or what?
[06:37] <naylor> un_operateur, well i've done about 12 so far, but will it wreck my system?
[06:37] <afief> numist: no way! i hardly have enough time to eat
[06:37] <justin_> Why is it still happening...........
[06:37] <numist> afief: I got started programming when I was a kidlet, and then started programming in college
[06:37] <numist> afief: I actually failed out of school because of open source
[06:37] <un_operateur> dpro, ubuntu now uses upstart -- perhaps you might want to look up its docs and see if you can place a command in one of the scripts
[06:37] <Pyru> I am curious, since i have windows xp on my main partition if i were to remove it then linux wouldn't work am i correct? since u have to have an os on ur main partition? or would linux still run
[06:37] <naylor> un_operateur, conflick/break 258    it says at the moment and still trying
[06:38] <justin_> PyrU, linux would still run..
[06:38] <leandro-1> Music_Shuffle,  but this guide use stable driver of nvidia, i have the beta
[06:38] <justin_> Windows would not run though
[06:38] <Music_Shuffle> It'd still run.
[06:38] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, I installed the beta off of that too.
[06:38] <afief> numist: well i started programming at the age of 11(*shrug* VB) learned C/C++ etc... but now university is keeping me from advancing(i only discovered open source a year or so ago)
[06:38] <un_operateur> naylor, well, i cant answer that question from here -- it wont harm your system as in ruin the base and make it unusable -- but it might flail the desktop
[06:38] <Pyru> justin_: oh odd, sorry I thought you had to have an OS on ur main partition.
[06:38] <naylor> un_operateur, is there some other way to fix it?
[06:38] <justin_> How come dapper still had the old mem leaks that Breezy did.......
[06:38] <Music_Shuffle> Neg
[06:38] <numist> afief: what's your focus in uni?
[06:38] <justin_> still has* even
[06:38] <Music_Shuffle> justin_, it leaks?
[06:38] <leandro-1> Music_Shuffle,  i don understand
[06:39] <leandro-1> remove the beta?
[06:39] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, what card do you have?
[06:39] <afief> numist: i'm in the faculty of electrical engineering, the major is computer engineering and programming
[06:39] <leandro-1> geforce2 mx 400
[06:39] <justin_> Music_Shuffle: gam_server leaks like mad. - It happens mostly to Kubuntu folk for some reason - I never ever had this happen on Ubuntu or Xubuntu.
[06:39] <naylor> can anyone please please help me out!? i've got errors and struggling here...
[06:39] <Music_Shuffle> Neg, you can just install over them using the guide from top to bottom. That was what I did.
[06:39] <leandro-1> Music_Shuffle, geforce2 mx400
[06:39] <Music_Shuffle> over the other drivers*
[06:39] <un_operateur> naylor, ok -- forget that -- just force install fontconfig -- i think it is -- sudo dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/fontconf*
[06:39] <afief> numist: but the only programming course this semester is about ASM in VAX11, which is about as interesting as intro to CS
[06:39] <hjmills> is there any good visualization software for linux  - im hopeing to use it with xwinwrap for my desktop bg
[06:40] <Music_Shuffle> justin_, yeah Kubuntu hates me...my installs with Kubuntu + GDM after always end badly.
[06:40] <afief> Pyrus: i think this guide will help you: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120615
[06:40] <justin_> I freaking hate KDE..
[06:40] <Music_Shuffle> But when I install Ubuntu and add KDE, XFCE, Beryl, Flux, etc, it works fine.
[06:40] <Music_Shuffle> ./shrug.
[06:40] <afief> Pyrus: always use google, it's the most useful tool on earth after grep
[06:40] <khaladan> How does one usually go about editing initrd?
[06:40] <justin_> Every time I install it something goes wrong with my system and i'm forced to format or something
[06:40] <naylor> un_operateur, http://pastebin.ca/287665
[06:41] <HentaiSushi> lol
[06:41] <numist> afief: see, thats the way to go.  school takes up more time, but you wind up knowing more for it, and can apply it to things like this
[06:41] <HentaiSushi> google is god, only less offensive
[06:41] <numist> afief: little things are always needed (for instance, gentoo needs a maintainer for xmms right now)
[06:41] <justin_> But whats worse Music_Shuffle, is that this problem has been happening since Breezy.. and it's still happening
[06:41] <HentaiSushi> brb on ubuntu
[06:42] <Music_Shuffle> Odd. I've never much mucked about with Kubuntu after a couple bad experiences for that reason.
[06:42] <Rprp>   ChanServ Duiv Dylanp Eggdrop masterpimp Rprp [Jgotti`Eten]  [TypeInc] 
[06:42] <afief> numist: yeah, next semester i'm into "data structures and algorithms"  and then intro to operating systems(kernel devs here i come:P)
[06:42] <numist> afief: ah hah, you're a first or second year then
[06:42] <justin_> Music_Shuffle: Heh, Yeah I think i'm going back to Ubuntu or Xubuntu.. - this is ridiculous, Kubuntu really does need more work.. :(
[06:42] <afief> numist: if you'd explain to me what a "maintainer" does i'd appreciate it...
[06:42] <Music_Shuffle> And then just install KDE after ^^
[06:42] <numist> afief: takes the source from the dev, makes a .deb
[06:43] <afief> numist: first half of the second year:(
[06:43] <numist> or .ebuild, in gentoo's case
[06:43] <numist> afief: good place to be
[06:43] <afief> numist: that's all?:S and that needs a maintainer?:S
[06:43] <LjL> afief, supertux compiled
[06:43] <new2ub> hello all! can any one tell me how bring up GUI of bittorrent. its installed there in my PC but i cant bring GUI
[06:43] <h0ndaracer2> what does a buffer overflow do?
[06:43] <numist> afief: yep.  sometimes you have to fix bugs that happen only on your distro too, but usually its quite easy, scriptable even
[06:44] <afief> LjL: must be something wrong on my machine, do you know how i can specify where configure should look for the SDL-Image package and where it could be?
[06:44] <hjmills> any ideas on a visualisation for linux?
[06:44] <afief> numist: actually that's another part i never understood, how come some bugs/features only happen in specific distros?
[06:45] <Music_Shuffle> Design?
[06:45] <un_operateur> naylor, sorry, i assumed that file was already downloaded -- here you go -- http://ubuntu.blueyonder.co.uk/archive/pool/main/f/fontconfig/fontconfig_2.3.2-7ubuntu2_i386.deb
[06:45] <Music_Shuffle> new2ub, grab a torrent program that has a GUI.
[06:45] <Music_Shuffle> new2ub, eg. KTorrent
[06:45] <Pyru> utorrent = ftw
[06:45] <Pyru> my opinion
[06:45] <Music_Shuffle> Yeah. But uTorrent with WINE setup on Edgy made me grr, so I said forget it, and use kTorrent now.
[06:45] <un_operateur> naylor, you can either place that file in /var/cache/apt/archives or modify the command to reflect the location to where you download it
[06:45] <GreyGhost> musashi ,did u succeed?
[06:46] <numist> afief: even though we're all built from the same software packages, different distros keep different things in different places.  That's usually the problem.  Sometimes there are actually real bugs, and those are due to small changes per distro that wind up growing
[06:46] <naylor> un_operateur, i just double clicked it and it's installed
[06:46] <numist> afief: in debian sarge, when it was in testing, the xfree86 project refused to support debian's version of their software
[06:46] <numist> afief: due to all the changes they'd made
[06:47] <wahl> any1 can help me here? i can't get wine to work, i can't even open sources.list with "gedit" any1 know another edit prog?
[06:47] <wahl> plz
[06:47] <Akuma_> i'm looking for an easy to use wireless monitor app. anyone here uses one they're satisfied with?
[06:47] <un_operateur> naylor, now you do this -- sudo sh -c "aptitude update; aptitude upgrade"
[06:47] <GreyGhost> wahl ,why cant u open it?
[06:47] <LjL> afief: wow, quite a few changes in the SVN version compared to what's in the repos... anyway, do you have the generic libsdl-dev installed too?
[06:47] <GreyGhost> wahl ,read only u mean?
[06:47] <afief> numist: thanks, i'll see what i can do about xmms, mind if i contact you via email later on? because i have to go now(i promise to send no more than 1K emails per day)
[06:47] <wasabi_> is there an official ubuntu deb package of jre1.6 floating around yet?
[06:48] <numist> afief: I'm sure xmms will be taken care of.  gentoo is a whole other realm, mind
[06:48] <afief> LjL: yes i do
[06:48] <GreyGhost> wahl if so then ....
[06:48] <GreyGhost> !sudo | wahl
[06:48] <ubotu> wahl: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:48] <numist> afief: sure.  spam@numist.net (I'll reply from a more useful address later)
[06:48] <Pyru> afief: I hope that works, though I'm still very unfumiliar with installing packages which I download and unpackaging tars and gzipped :( I know i should read up, which I plan on doing an dwill do :) thanks for the guide if ur around it would be cool to help me further! ;)
[06:49] <naylor> un_operateur, masses of errors from that: http://pastebin.ca/287672
[06:49] <afief> Pyru: sure, i'm glad to give something back to the community that taught me this stuff about one year ago:) become a dev and contribute to repay us:P
[06:49] <pike_> wahl: if you havent already run "winecfg" in terminal to configure wine.
[06:49] <afief> numist: thanks a million
[06:49] <LjL> afief, i suggest you try auto-apt, "sudo apt-get install auto-apt", then "sudo auto-apt update", then "auto-apt run ./configure". ignore everything that doesn't seem relevant, and just look at what happens during the SDL check
[06:50] <afief> LjL: could you give me a short explenation what's special about auto-apt?
[06:50] <Aggrav8d> i changed the default port for SSH and then tried to /etc/init.d/ssh restart but i get "could not load host key" errors.  What should I do?
[06:50] <LjL> !auto-apt | afief
[06:50] <ubotu> auto-apt: package search by file and on-demand package installation tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.20 (edgy), package size 44 kB, installed size 216 kB
[06:50] <LjL> afief: hm nevermind, i thought there was a more informative factoid
[06:50] <un_operateur> naylor, maybe this -- sudo dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/ttf-op*
[06:51] <afief> LjL: actually it makes some sense, although i didn't figure out how it'll take figure out the needed packages
[06:51] <wahl> pike_ how to run it then?
[06:51] <LjL> afief: auto-apt is similar to apt-file -- it can tell you which package contains a given file (even if it's not installed). only, auto-apt also allows *running* a program (like ./configure), and whenever that program cannot find a file, auto-apt will block it and look for that file in a package, and prompt you to install that package
[06:51] <wasabi_> anyone?
[06:51] <musashi> hey guys pick a number, 5 or 3
[06:51] <wasabi_> is there an official ubuntu deb package of jre1.6 floating around yet?
[06:51] <naylor> un_operateur, more errors dude: http://pastebin.ca/287675
[06:52] <LjL> afief, it's an LD_PRELOAD hack basically. it intercepts calls to open() and other functions, and when they would fail, it doesn't make them fail right away, but starts a package search instead
[06:52] <afief> LjL: that's awsome:D no more dependency hunting:D
[06:52] <LjL> afief, it's less awesome than it sounds
[06:52] <ox{> I am interested in adding my fonts to the gucharmap that come with ubuntu. Is this possible? Any help is appreciated.
[06:52] <GreyGhost> wasabi_ ,search synaptic?
[06:52] <afief> LjL: why?:(
[06:52] <LjL> afief: most of the time, it proposes completely awkward packages, because your configure script peeks some file that don't really matter
[06:52] <pike_> wahl: well once its installed you would just preface wine in front like.  wine install.exe    to run something.  it wont always work and will often take extra configuring.  programs will be installed to /home/username/.wine/drive_c   i think
[06:53] <wasabi_> GreyGhost, yea no luck, i don't know if i am missing repositories
[06:53] <LjL> afief: and it can miss dependencies as well, since not everything that configure checks for is checked by simply trying to open a file
[06:53] <GreyGhost> !jre
[06:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jre - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:53] <pike_> wahl: there might be a gui but im not too familiar with wine
[06:53] <wasabi_> !java
[06:53] <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
[06:53] <wasabi_> oo thanks
[06:53] <kitche> wasabi_: feisty has jre-1.5.0-10-1
[06:53] <unimatrix9> hi there
[06:54] <wasabi_> kitche, that package isn't available for edgy?
[06:54] <LjL> afief: another (similar, really) trick is to use the "strace" command. that will dump just about *every* syscall that a program makes -- "strace -e trace=file some-command" will dump the file-related call, and that's useful to check which files are missing (maybe with some grep'ing...)
[06:54] <kitche> wasabi_: it might be in the backports
[06:54] <GreyGhost> !hi unimatrix9
[06:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hi unimatrix9 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:54] <GreyGhost> !hi | unimatrix9
[06:54] <ubotu> unimatrix9: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:54] <LjL> afief: when you've found out which file is missing, you can use either auto-apt or apt-file (slower, but more thorough) to find out what package is responsible
[06:54] <unimatrix9> is there an way to turn off the update message on the edgy gnome desktop?
[06:55] <un_operateur> naylor, have you ever used automatix on that machine?
[06:55] <wasabi_> kitche, i tried linking the java plugin in the firefox folder and firefox crashes when visiting a java enabled website. i'm using 1.5 update 10
[06:55] <naylor> un_operateur, yeah i have but not really for anything much, but i do have it on here
[06:56] <GreyGhost> if anyone has answer to  unimatrix9 please tell .. i'm eager to put that off too .... cos of low bandith per month....
[06:56] <Pyru> afief: I installed VLC , when i try to play a disk, all i get is the GUI of VLC but no video screen or no sound or video playing :(
[06:56] <jwm> hello
[06:56] <LjL> afief, see also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutoDeb - that's *NOT* safe to use, at all, it's just a hack i once tried to put together, but maybe it can give you an idea (it basically does auto-apt-like stuff and uses checkinstall as well, to create a package that lists dependencies)
[06:56] <Stormx2> unimatrix9: System > Preferences > Session. in startup, disable update-notifier
[06:56] <naylor> un_operateur, all i used it for was a few codecs and firefox plugins really
[06:56] <kitche> wasabi_: I don't even see 1.6 as being out
[06:56] <jwm> I am setting up a p4 for a friend with ubuntu 6.10 and the fan shuts off on boot
[06:57] <jwm> I've tried several different kernel versions already
[06:57] <un_operateur> naylor, can you try this -- sudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/ttf-opensymbol.postinst
[06:57] <jwm> but haven't configured them entirely
[06:57] <afief> Pyru: i'm out of ideas here:( you need to ask someone else
[06:57] <AngryElf_> what packages do I need to install in order to allow dragging and dropping of themes into the theme preferences?
[06:57] <jwm> when I turn acpi off the fan will stay on
[06:57] <unimatrix9> ok thanx
[06:57] <un_operateur> naylor, tell me if it opens up
[06:57] <wasabi_> kitche, hmm odd some bloke on the forums said it was out
[06:57] <Stormx2> AngryElf_: It should work automaticly.
[06:57] <jwm> but I'd like to get a kernel with acpi working with the fan on
[06:57] <afief> Pyru: basicly if the DVD is encrypted you might get this kind of problem...
[06:57] <wasabi_> kitche, blah nvm
[06:57] <Stormx2> AngryElf_: What kind of file are you dragging in? Is an error being displayed?
[06:58] <kitche> wasabi_: on the java site they only have java 5.0 update 10 which is 1.5.0 update 10
[06:58] <naylor> un_operateur, it's opened up and i've pasted it here: http://pastebin.ca/287681
[06:58] <jwm> anyone ever experience a cpu fan not running unless you turn off acpi?
[06:58] <AngryElf_> Stormx2: file format invalid -- this is the current #1 ranked Gtk 2.x theme from gnome-look
[06:58] <AngryElf_> Stormx2: I installed gnome-art but that didn't help
[06:58] <Stormx2> AngryElf_: Sure its not an engine?
[06:58] <wasabi_> kitche, actually it is out
[06:59] <wasabi_> kitche, i see it on java.sun.com
[06:59] <Stormx2> AngryElf_: Unpack it. It may contain other archives, or it may be a GTK2 engine
[06:59] <AngryElf_> Stormx2: an engine?
[06:59] <Pyru> maybe I'll restart
[06:59] <Pyru> though I don't think that will help :(
[06:59] <un_operateur> naylor, on line 8, i'd like you to comment out "set -e" .. place a # at the beginning of the file -- and save it -- and try -- sudo aptitude upgrade again
[06:59] <kitche> wasabi_: ht he SDK has it but not the runtime environment
[06:59] <wasabi_> kitche, runtime is there
[06:59] <kitche> wasabi_: and I see why also it's java EE
[06:59] <Aggrav8d> i changed the default port for SSH and then tried to /etc/init.d/ssh restart but i get "could not load host key" errors.  What should I do?
[06:59] <Stormx2> AngryElf_: Some things under GTK2 aren't themes. They are engines, which allow themes to render
[06:59] <wasabi_> it's under java se
[07:00] <dpro> ok found it .. cheers un_operateur
[07:00] <AngryElf_> hmm, a Gtk 1.x just worked -- maybe the gtk2 engine isn't installed?
[07:00] <un_operateur> dpro, what was that again? sorry, i dont recall :)
[07:00] <afief> LjL: that is weird, when i tun ./configure under auto-apt it seems to find SDL-image...
[07:00] <wahl> yes i got wine working:D
[07:00] <pike_> Pyru: member of cdrom group right?
[07:00] <wasabi_> kitche, http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp the runtime environment is listed on there
[07:00] <ubuntu> hey, i restarted my pc today and everytime i turn it on i see:"Erro ao carregar osistema operacional", i'm on the live cd atm, any body have any ideas? i looks spanish to me
[07:00] <Stormx2> AngryElf_: Well gimme a link...
[07:00] <dpro> un_operateur: I just redirected the serial console in /etc/event.d/tty1 and that seems to do what I wanted
[07:00] <naylor> un_operateur, ok here we go: http://pastebin.ca/287683
[07:01] <ianp> is it easy to add a custom application to the Applications menu?
[07:01] <Juhaz> yes
[07:01] <Stormx2> ianp: yes. Right click.
[07:01] <un_operateur> dpro, ahh ok, cool, glad to know it works
[07:01] <un_operateur> naylor, ok
[07:01] <Pyru> pike_: not sure, i know that VLC shows the movies title, but there is box for the movie to play and when i press the play button the GUI just stays in it's compact mode and doesnt play show the video window, nor does any sound come out so i know it's not playing =/
[07:01] <kitche> wasabi_: yeah it's the JDK that's why I didn't notice I was looking at the runtime environment alone
[07:01] <ubuntu> hey, i restarted my pc today and everytime i turn it on i see:"Erro ao carregar osistema operacional", i'm on the live cd atm, any body have any ideas? i looks spanish to me
[07:01] <leandro-1> Music_Shuffle,  you are a genius, beryl its run ok!!
[07:01] <ianp> Stormx2: wow. sweet
[07:02] <naylor> un_operateur, is that good or bad?
[07:02] <leandro-1> Music_Shuffle,  thanks
[07:02] <un_operateur> naylor, looks good -- just to double check  ---  sudo sh -c "aptitude upgrade; aptitude install -f"
[07:02] <LjL> afief: weird enough... does the configure complete?
[07:02] <kitche> wasabi_: think they just updated their page when I was looking at it also
[07:02] <afief> LjL: yup
[07:03] <Music_Shuffle> leandro-1, anytime. :D
[07:03] <Pyru> pike_: maybe something to do with my graphics card?
[07:03] <Pyru> hmmm
[07:03] <LjL> afief: uhm, maybe it just installed some packages automatically? though i believed it would ask first, by default
[07:03] <Pyru> then again, sound would still come out
[07:03] <bsilva> ola
[07:03] <naylor> un_operateur, http://pastebin.ca/287685
[07:03] <LjL> afief: check /var/log/dpkg.log to make sure it didn't install stuff
[07:03] <naylor> un_operateur, it's removed something dude
[07:04] <afief> LjL: nope, when i tried to run it normally it still couldn't find it
[07:04] <naylor> un_operateur, do i need to uncomment out that line of text in that conf file?
[07:04] <ubuntu> hey, i restarted my pc today and everytime i turn it on i see:"Erro ao carregar osistema operacional", i'm on the live cd atm, any body have any ideas? i looks spanish to me
[07:04] <ianp> I added it in the main area, the app shortcut, then i wanted to move it to a submenu
[07:04] <LjL> afief: uh... *shrug*. sounds like a weird glitch, i'd try strace if you want to investigate further
[07:04] <ianp> but it won't move when i copy it.. i tried deleting it, it turned italic, but wont delete
[07:04] <ubuntu> the last bit seems to translate to "operational system"
[07:04] <LjL> ubuntu: portuguese
[07:04] <ianp> i tried creating a new one in teh submenu, it won't create
[07:05] <Pyru> I'll brb , maybe try a restart.
[07:05] <un_operateur> naylor, apart from this removing f-spot -- everything seems fine -- you should be able to install f-spot back again if thats what you want
[07:05] <afief> LjL: i will try that... after i get something to eat(starving doesn't even get close to describe my state)
[07:05] <ubuntu> sorry
[07:05] <LjL> ubuntu: did you install Windows or do anything Windows-related?
[07:05] <ubuntu> nope, why?
[07:05] <prxq> hi. I'm setting up an ubuntu box for an older friend. Anyone knows how to make ubuntu (or xubuntu) log in directly into a default account?
[07:05] <Stormx2> ianp: It can happen sometimes. Be sure to click the submenu on the left, click an item on the right, then click create item
[07:05] <naylor> un_operateur, you're a star, sounds good - and i don't need to uncomment out that line of text?
[07:05] <prxq> without typing passwords &.c.
[07:05] <jhaig> ubuntu: Translating from Portugese via Google gives "Error when operational loading osistema"
[07:05] <LjL> ubuntu: because that looks like the "Operating system not found" error from the MS-DOS/Windows MBR
[07:06] <ianp> Stormx2: I just reverted to default, I loaded the menu on the left, then did 'New item', not it doesn't show up at all... :/
[07:06] <Dial_tone> is there a CLI search for beagle?
[07:06] <LjL> ubuntu: you don't have a floppy in the drive, do you? ;)
[07:06] <un_operateur> naylor, no, you dont have to do that :) on the next update/install it'll correct itself
[07:06] <ianp> Stormx2: do you happen to know what file(s) I can edit manually for this?
[07:06] <ubuntu> unfortunatly no, but i can add one if required
[07:06] <ianp> im using Edgy
[07:06] <LjL> ubuntu: no, actually, that error might come if you *have* a floppy in the drive
[07:06] <Stormx2> ianp: No sorry :( It can screw up sometimes, it does for me. It might be worth doing a "killall gnome-panel" and see if it shows up then
[07:07] <ubuntu> ah
[07:07] <naylor> un_operateur, man you're a dude and a half and then some
[07:07] <oxherder> any recommendations for a 19" widescreen monitor that's linux friendly? and cheap?
[07:07] <naylor> un_operateur, thanks a lot
[07:07] <ubuntu> any ideas on making it boot linux again?
[07:07] <un_operateur> naylor, yw :)
[07:07] <LjL> jhaig, it's just saying "Error while loading the operating system", but it looks much like what you get when your MBR is messed up
[07:07] <ianp> nevermind, it finally worked.
[07:07] <LjL> Ubotu, tell ubuntu about grub | ubuntu, see the private message from Ubotu
[07:07] <un_operateur> naylor, ty too :)
[07:07] <ianp> must be some weird bug
[07:07] <LjL> ubuntu: i'd have a peek there
[07:07] <ianp> thanks Stormx2
[07:07] <bloodfreak> some1 like to tell me abt da w32 codecs
[07:07] <LjL> no idea while it would be in portuguese, though, if he never had anything portuguese installed
[07:08] <ubuntu> nope, i'm britsh, and i'm pretty sure the pc was made in america, even if it wasnt, it should still be english
[07:08] <n2diy> I installed k3b, and it worked, once. no it doesn't open, from the menu or cli. I re-installed it, and it still doesn't work. Ideas?
[07:08] <un_operateur> maybe portuguese is set to be the next lingua franca :>
[07:09] <n2diy> no/now
[07:09] <__mikem> doesn't british computers use a lower voltage level
[07:09] <__mikem> ?
[07:09] <ubuntu> higher
[07:09] <ubuntu> 240volts
[07:09] <un_operateur> mikl, 240v
[07:09] <ubuntu> everythingdoes
[07:09] <LjL> un_operateur: p vess
[07:09] <un_operateur> LjL, que? :p
[07:09] <ubuntu> would changing the partition table posibly make it boot?
[07:09] <LjL> un_operateur: well, that was actually my italian dialect, and not portuguese, but i said "maybe" :P
[07:09] <pike_> n2diy: ps -A   and kill anything looking like a kde app maybe
[07:09] <__mikem> ubuntu, in that case, do you have the computer connected to an outlet that can provide 240 v of power?
[07:10] <ubuntu> yes ofcourse. nothing wrong has been happening since today
[07:10] <bloodfreak> i want totem codecs pack!!!!how do i install it
[07:10] <__mikem> most american outlets provide 120v
[07:10] <un_operateur> LjL, ha ha, I couldnt tell the difference -- :)  its as good as
[07:10] <ubuntu> __mikem: i'm britsh and my pc is correctly set up to run in england
[07:11] <n2diy> pike, I see lots of candidates, but I'm not familiar with ps, how do I kill them?
[07:11] <__mikem> okay just checking.
[07:11] <un_operateur> ubuntu, you sure $LANG doesn't say otherwise?
[07:11] <pike_> n2diy: pkill appname  should work
[07:11] <ubuntu> un_operateur: how would i check that?
[07:11] <un_operateur> ubuntu, at a terminal -- echo $LANG
[07:11] <__mikem> echo $LANG
[07:12] <ubuntu> that outputs en_US.UTF-8
[07:12] <scott__> anyone know the terminal command to reload beryl

[07:12] <innu> Hey. Is there system wide equalizer (alsa equalizer or smth). I want use rhythmbox but without equalizer, its useless.
[07:12] <n2diy> pike, ok, there are numerous references to k3b, is there a way to pkill k3b all?
[07:12] <un_operateur> ubuntu,   try this one -- locale
[07:12] <HentaiSushi> un_operateur: can you help me?
[07:13] <un_operateur> HentaiSushi, with the monitors?? errm, i could try -- whats the matter

[07:13] <HentaiSushi> un_operatuer: well right now, they both show the same thing.  i want to be able to cross over moniters.  like not have both show the same thing, and be bale to use the extra space
[07:14] <__mikem> LinTux, if the human theme is not prefesional enough you are really serious.

[07:15] <emmm> hola
[07:15] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - i tried, it says it doesn't know "alias"
[07:15] <Pyru> nope, problem still occures.
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> un_operateur: what is xinerama
[07:15] <__mikem> LinTux, no worries, you can get themes at www.gnome-look.org
[07:15] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, try this guide http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[07:15] <LinTux> Cheers m8
[07:15] <Aggrav8d> and now it works.  wtf.  thanks, un_operateur.
[07:15] <HentaiSushi> alright thanks, wasabi_
[07:15] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, you probably forgot the quotes or were using too many spaces
[07:15] <un_operateur> !xinerama
[07:15] <ubotu> xinerama is using multiple monitors as one big monitor. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[07:15] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, no problem come back if you have problems

[07:16] <tdog> what is the differents in I386 and I686 installation CD ???
[07:16] <h0ndaracer2> is their any way of recovering a file you deleted in recycle bin
[07:16] <HentaiSushi> i think i have a problem already, wasabi_)
[07:16] <HentaiSushi> wasabi_*
[07:16] <Pyru> afief, any more help / suggestions
[07:16] <Pyru> ?
[07:16] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, what's the problem?
[07:17] <jhaig> tdog: Probably the kernel is optimised for i383 or i686 processors, respectively.
[07:17] <HentaiSushi> i dont understand what its saying
[07:17] <un_operateur> ubuntu, not that it makes a great difference -- but your locale is set to american eh
[07:17] <wasabi_> oh lol
[07:17] <HentaiSushi> lol
[07:17] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, you need to choose one of the solution
[07:17] <HentaiSushi> i only just started with linux
[07:17] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, solutions*
[07:17] <tdog> IS I686 means support for 64 bit processors ???
[07:17] <HentaiSushi> where can i configure moniter settings at?
[07:17] <HentaiSushi> SuSe had it in a nice graphical menu
[07:17] <jhaig> tdog: No, that would be _64
[07:17] <ubuntu> un_operateur: that shouldnt make it display portugeese :P
[07:17] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, you have xinerama, twinview mergedfb and big desktop to do what you want
[07:18] <HentaiSushi> i dont want it where i have to scroll across the moniter to get to the other side
[07:18] <tdog> i see. i installed 1386 ubuntu on my system . i was just wondrig about it , i used ot have the 64 bit installed but had to convert
[07:18] <ubuntu> un_operateur: that may be because of live CD, my keyboards acting like an american one too
[07:18] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, i'm not familiar with features available in SuSe but for you to use multimonitors on ubuntu you need to install and setup one of those packages
[07:18] <HentaiSushi> ok thanks for the help :D
[07:19] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, sorry i'm not that helpful
[07:19] <un_operateur> ubuntu, well -- i know -- but you said you set ubuntu up to be "british" but its set up american, it might mean that there's other locale problems that suggest to packages that you're not british, not american but portuguese :)
[07:19] <tdog> is there nice music player for linux, something with nice and samll hight tech window ???
[07:19] <wasabi_> HentaiSushi, the forums should be extremely helpful to finding the answer
[07:19] <heydabop> How do I format a drive using the terminal?
[07:19] <HentaiSushi> wasabi_: can you join #helpsushi so i can talk one on one
[07:20] <wasabi_> lol sure

[07:20] <un_operateur> HentaiSushi, as is google suggest -- http://labs.google.com/suggest :)
[07:20] <ubuntu> un_operateur: why would that not make me mount the ubuntu partition
[07:20] <Pyru> can anyone help me , so I can get dvd video and cd audio to work with ubuntu, I have had no luck and I am in need of some help please
[07:20] <heydabop> Just type fdisk?
[07:20] <unimatrix9> tdog, could try beep-mediaplayer
[07:20] <unimatrix9> you can use winamp classic skins
[07:20] <tdog> will give that a try in second
[07:20] <tdog> thanks
[07:20] <trinkolade> heydabop, fdisk /dev/hda for example
[07:20] <un_operateur> ubuntu, errm i dunno really -- how are you trying to mount the partition ??
[07:20] <heydabop> Ok.
[07:20] <trinkolade> heydabop, but you should read the manpage first
[07:20] <heydabop> Will I then be able to install another OS?
[07:21] <ubuntu> i dont know, i havent messed with anything, it should be normal boot up mount
[07:21] <un_operateur> ubuntu, ok, so whats failing?
[07:21] <trinkolade> heydabop, I don't know but usually you'll be able to use the partition somehow
[07:21] <wasabi_> !xinerama
[07:21] <ubotu> xinerama is using multiple monitors as one big monitor. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[07:21] <heydabop> Ok.

[07:22] <__mikem> heydabop, what do you have against XFCE?
[07:22] <heydabop> Not much.
[07:22] <jhaig> heydabop: I think you can do that by just installing the "ubuntu-desktop" package.
[07:22] <bersace> the kernel fail to mount root
[07:22] <heydabop> O.
[07:22] <heydabop> Ok.
[07:22] <bersace> the kernel root arg is root=/dev/sda4
[07:22] <n2diy> I installed k3b, and it worked, once. now it doesn't open, from the menu or cli. I re-installed it, and it still doesn't work. Ideas? I've killed it with pkill -9, but it still won't startup?
[07:22] <heydabop> I probably shouldn't though.
[07:22] <bersace> it complain that /dev/sda4 does not exsists
[07:22] <heydabop> I don't think my computer is good enough.
[07:22] <ubuntu> un_operateur: i'm running off live cd atm, and this IRC chat is in terminal, so thats why my name is ubuntu :P
[07:22] <LjL> afief: do you think it's just an effect given by the higher resolution, or is the SVN supertux walking speed much slower than the release version?

[07:23] <tdog> thanks for pointing that out to me

[07:24] <un_operateur> ubuntu, ok, at what point does the boot fail?
[07:25] <unimatrix9> ?
[07:25] <unimatrix9> hmm\
[07:25] <ubuntu> it gets to the system splash screen (HP, not ubuntu splash screen) then it displays that error
[07:25] <scott__> How do I start the gnome process manager?
[07:25] <un_operateur> brutopia,  at a terminal -- hardinfo
[07:25] <unimatrix9> ehj
[07:25] <ubuntu> un_operateur: so i'm guessing its not mounted the hdd right or atal
[07:25] <un_operateur> scott__, at a terminal -- gnome-system-monitor
[07:26] <scott__> Thanks un_operateur apprecated
[07:26] <un_operateur> ubuntu, I dunno, a guess is sometimes no good -- do you know exactly at what point the boot fails?
[07:27] <un_operateur> ubuntu, do you get any error messages, dumps, hangs?
[07:27] <khaladan> I'm trying to mount an initrd image (that's been gunzipped already) with `mount initrd.img mntpoint -o loop` but it fails saying "mount: you must specify the filesystem type".  no filesystem type works except when i try ramfs, but then the directory is blank.  what do i do?
[07:27] <n2diy> un_operateur: hardinfo doesn't work here, is it just hardinfo, or --hardinfo?
[07:27] <Aggrav8d> can someone please tell me how i have to edit /etc/hosts to support multiple virtual hosts?  I'm getting "Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using [LAN IP]  for servername."
[07:27] <AngryElf_> __mikem: last time i checked vmware server SERVES VMs -- not necessarily server VMs, but this is entirely besides the point -- it installs fine on dapper -- my question is what do I need to do to get it installed on edgy?
[07:27] <un_operateur> n2diy, hardinfo -- as in /usr/bin/hardinfo
[07:28] <ubuntu> the only error i get is that one, which translates to "Error when loading the operational system", other than that it apears normal, i dont know the exact point it fails, sorry
[07:28] <pestilence> does anybody here use audible?  how do you do it?
[07:28] <un_operateur> n2diy, if you give me a sec, i'll tell you which package you need
[07:28] <MeisterZopf> Aggrav8d: are you trying to create virtual hosts with apache?
[07:28] <Aggrav8d> yes
[07:28] <Aggrav8d> i'm also trying to ask in #apache but not getting anywhere.
[07:28] <MeisterZopf> Aggrav8d: then you have to edit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
[07:28] <MeisterZopf> /etc/hosts is the wrong file for this
[07:28] <Aggrav8d> i can't just create another file in that folder?
[07:28] <__mikem> AngryElf_ what exactly happens when you try to install it?
[07:28] <ubuntu> i could reinstall ubuntu 6.10, but i'd like to save the current one with all my work
[07:29] <MeisterZopf> Aggrav8d, yes you can
[07:29] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, you should create another file in that folder
[07:29] <Aggrav8d> that's what i did.
[07:29] <n2diy> un_operateur: ok, /usr/bin/hardinfo didn't work either.
[07:29] <Aggrav8d> like so: http://rafb.net/paste/results/F11S1u55.html
[07:29] <h0ndaracer2> yes i got firefox upgraded to the newest version
[07:29] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, but you need to edit the copy to reflect changes and virtual host names, etc
[07:29] <Pyru> Hello I am having difficulty getting DVD and AUdio playback to work with ubuntu can anyone help me out please
[07:30] <rohan> the compiz-kde package does not exist on edgy. how do i get AIGLX working on kubuntu, with compiz ?
[07:30] <un_operateur> n2diy, sudo aptitude install hardinfo
[07:30] <rohan> i have intel GMA 950, so i guess aiglx is the best choice ?
[07:30] <n2diy> un_operateur: roger, thanks.
[07:30] <Aggrav8d> like so: http://rafb.net/paste/results/F11S1u55.html  -- so what did i miss that keeps causing this error?
[07:30] <MeisterZopf> Aggrav8d, I think the first line is not necesary because it gets enabled in 000-default allready
[07:30] <Aggrav8d> meister - ok, i'll try dyking it out.
[07:31] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, whats the error you get?
[07:31] <MeisterZopf> Aggrav8d: and you should let the apache listen on the wan ip
[07:31] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur this one: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/Errors/CouldNotDetermineServerName  except 127.0.0.1 is replace with the lan ip of my server.
[07:31] <n2diy> My cdrom/writer is flaky, if I replace it will Ubuntu pick it up, or will I have to mess with fstab?
[07:32] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, try adding a ServerName directive to your /etc/apache2/apache.conf
[07:32] <Aggrav8d> MeisterZopf - it's isn't listening by default?
[07:32] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, ServerName marginallyclever.com
[07:32] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - that won't interfere with other virtual hosts?
[07:33] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, well, this one is the main one -- other virtual hosts must have this directive set
[07:33] <Aggrav8d> ah.
[07:33] <tashinha> hi
[07:33] <ubuntu> un_operateur: any ideas?
[07:34] <HentaiSushi> un_operator: if i reboot ubuntu, i cant see anything on the boot-up screen. no BIOS and i cant even see the boot menu
[07:35] <tybalt> Hah! I figured out my problem when I first joined this channel and nobody helped me, and I wrote a how-to for future reference: http://people.virginia.edu/~bv4n/howto/print-from-ubuntu-server.html
[07:35] <un_operateur> ubuntu, sorry, next time, make sure you address me otherwise i wont pick you out of the crowd -- this channel gets busy and it hard to notice everything
[07:35] <ubuntu> un_operateur: my problem
[07:35] <un_operateur> ubuntu, can you give me an exact error message to work on
[07:35] <un_operateur> ?
[07:35] <pike_> n2diy: fstab values will remain the same.  assuming it ubuntu detects hardware you should be ok
[07:35] <un_operateur> ubuntu, and at what precise stage too
[07:35] <ubuntu> un_operateur: how would i find out which stage?
[07:35] <un_operateur> HentaiSushi, do you even see the computers POST screen?
[07:35] <HentaiSushi> nope
[07:35] <ubuntu> un_operateur: also the translated error or the actually error
[07:35] <HentaiSushi> nothing
[07:36] <n2diy> pike, ok, we'll find out soon. :)
[07:36] <HentaiSushi> un_operateur: no i dont see anything at all
[07:36] <un_operateur> ubuntu, if at all you get to the splash screen -- it'll tell you what its doing-- just make a rough note of the progress there
[07:36] <Aggrav8d> ok, reload doesn't seem to report the error any more.  but i still can't browse the site or ping it, although dns is pointing to the right ip.  yes, i have checked the router config.
[07:36] <un_operateur> HentaiSushi, errm, you probably need to adjust the BIOS to change the primary monitor
[07:37] <HentaiSushi> wow
[07:37] <HentaiSushi> how do i do that, i cant even see the BIOS
[07:37] <khermans> anyone know a good command line tool to monitor disk bandwidth?
[07:37] <ubuntu> un_operateur: it gets the main pc splash screen the HP, invent (not the ubuntu one) then freezes on that error in portugeese
[07:37] <un_operateur> HentaiSushi, unplug the secondary monitor
[07:37] <HentaiSushi> i dont even know what disk bandwidth is
[07:37] <HentaiSushi> ok
[07:37] <HentaiSushi> i guess
[07:37] <khermans> HentaiSushi, real time disk usage
[07:37] <HentaiSushi> oh, duh
[07:37] <HentaiSushi> that makes sense
[07:37] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, are you behind a router?
[07:38] <un_operateur> khermans, there's a difference between bandwidth and usage -- just which are you after?
[07:38] <hjmills> is there a linux or ubuntu gaming irc channel?
[07:38] <khermans> un_operateur, real time disk bandwidth
[07:38] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - yes, i checked the router details.  80 is being forwarded to my lan ip.
[07:39] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, can you browse the site by IP address?
[07:39] <Aggrav8d> one moment...
[07:39] <un_operateur> khermans, as in how much space is being used?
[07:39] <khermans> un_operateur, no
[07:39] <Aggrav8d> it seems no.
[07:39] <khermans> un_operateur, how much my disk is being accessed right now
[07:39] <kspath> khermans, Why does it have to be "real"-time ?
[07:39] <ubuntu> un_operateur: its before grub and after my pcs splash screen, not ubuntu splash screen
[07:39] <unimatrix9> hjmills wich games ?
[07:39] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - timed out.
[07:39] <Aggrav8d> :T
[07:39] <kspath> khermans, iostat? vmstat? nfsstat?
[07:39] <hjmills> unimatrix9: namely the source games under cedega - hl2, cs:source etc
[07:40] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - i can't ping it, either.
[07:40] <khermans> kspath, yeah thats it
[07:40] <khermans> i forgot the names
[07:40] <unimatrix9> hjmills #cedega
[07:40] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, theres your problem :(
[07:40] <kspath> khermans: there will be a test later.  ;-)
[07:40] <Aggrav8d> yes, but now do i fix it?  I don't even know how to diagnose the problem more.
[07:40] <unimatrix9> bye all
[07:40] <unimatrix9> :)
[07:41] <hjmills> unimatrix9:  thanks
[07:41] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, if you are behind a NAT router -- the router might not be forwarding internal traffic back inwards -- and then you might need to manipulate the internal DNS server to point your domainname to the internal IP address
[07:41] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, do you mind me connecting to the site?
[07:41] <Aggrav8d> go for it.  154.20.178.126
[07:42] <Aggrav8d> aka marginallyclever.com
[07:42] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - btw, thanks for all this help.
[07:43] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, nope, neither works-- which tells me that the router is not redirecting port 80 or you are not on that ip address after all
[07:43] <Aggrav8d> whatismyip.com says it's my address.
[07:43] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, two tests -- www.whatismyip.com  and www.auditmypc.com (the latter to do a port scan to see if 80/tcp  is open )
[07:44] <Aggrav8d> stupid dlink POS.
[07:44] <mathieu_> server irc.thundercity.org
[07:44] <lovloss> :3~ Hi!
[07:45] <lovloss> (thats my drooling cat face)
[07:45] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, yea, a port scan on 154.20.178.126:80 indicates it is down -- its not being port-forwarded right
[07:45] <Aggrav8d> i guess not.  wtf, the router says it is doing it.
[07:45] <kspath> blocked by ISP?
[07:45] <Aggrav8d> i f23$*#@ hate dlink.
[07:46] <lovloss> oooo i hate figuring out routers
[07:46] <kspath> some ISPs block hosting type ports for their DSL/cable customers
[07:46] <kspath> I love dlink
[07:46] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, kspath has a point -- it might be against your ISPs ToS to host sites without their consent and they might be blocking web traffic inwards
[07:47] <kspath> try using port 8080 or  8181 or something
[07:47] <Xinux> how do I clear my unmet dependencies in apt-get ?
[07:47] <un_operateur> Xinux, sudo aptitude install -f
[07:47] <kspath> I only worked for ISPs for several years    I learned a tiny tiny bit
[07:47] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - i'll try running it on 81 and see.
[07:48] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, I'd try something a bit more obscure like 7183 or something :)
[07:48] <un_operateur> Aggrav8d, I gotta go cook dinner, hope you resolve the issue <touch wood> :)
[07:49] <ubuntu> un_operateur: its before grub and after my pcs splash screen, not ubuntu splash screen
[07:49] <Aggrav8d> un_operateur - merci.
[07:50] <sramos_> ola

[07:54] <boness> Hello
[07:55] <LazyAce> I can't get ubuntu 6.10 to recognize the sound card I just stuck in the machine
[07:55] <crimsun_> LazyAce: which card?
[07:56] <LazyAce> it's a soundblaster audigy gamer 24bit
[07:56] <wy> I've got a problem compiling the driver for ipw3954. It says Your kernel contains ieee80211 symbol definitions and you
[07:56] <wy> are not using the kernel's default ieee80211 subsystem.  (Perhaps you
[07:56] <wy> used the out-of-tree ieee80211 subsystem's 'make install' or have
[07:56] <wy> provided a path to the ieee80211 subsystem via IEEE80211_INC.)
[07:56] <crimsun_> LazyAce: what's the output from ``asoundconf list''?
[07:56] <LazyAce> it worked in my old machine, but now i'm using an old compaq 450mhz
[07:56] <ubuntu> un_operateur: honestly, i'm in abit over my head
[07:56] <Aggrav8d> join #apache
[07:56] <LazyAce> crimsun_, where do I check this?
[07:56] <Aggrav8d> sorry
[07:56] <wy> This is strange. I don't have any driver for the wireless now
[07:57] <crimsun_> LazyAce: type the command I gave you in a Terminal
[07:57] <pike_> wy: upgraded kernel or something?
[07:57] <ubuntu> un_operateur: i've got as far as grub shell
[07:57] <LazyAce> wth
[07:57] <pike_> wy: bah youre compiling nm
[07:57] <wy> pike_: I upgraded to 2.6.17-generic yesterday
[07:57] <LazyAce> k, what was it again?
[07:57] <LazyAce> asoundconf list ?
[07:58] <boness> Please help-me. I have a HD with Ubuntu installed, this HD used to be in one machine but now I put the HD in another one. The problem is that I can't boot, linux stops at this message: "Begin: waiting for root file system". Do you have any clue?
[07:58] <wy> There is a module loaded called ipw3945. It seems I don't need to compile the driver?
[07:58] <LazyAce> crimsun_, the output is blank..
[07:59] <crimsun_> LazyAce: paste the output from ``lspci -v'' onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:59] <cbx33> boness, is the other computer similar in hardware?
[07:59] <jean-michel> i can't get ubuntu to play sound at all and i have an sb live
[08:00] <ubuntu> un_operateur: it keeps giving me Error 23: Error while parsing number
[08:01] <pike_> wy: soo if module is loaded does it show up when you ifconfig?
[08:01] <wy> pike_: No. nothing there
[08:01] <boness> cbx33: I think the motherboard is different
[08:01] <cbx33> that could be why
[08:02] <boness> cbx33: but why could it be why? shouldn't it runs anyway.
[08:02] <wy> pike_: It seems I need something else?
[08:02] <LazyAce> crimsun_, i believe it's posted
[08:02] <crimsun_> LazyAce: url?
[08:02] <boness> ?
[08:02] <LazyAce> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38264/
[08:02] <blue-frog> boness it's not as easy as moving windows which loads default drivers when changing hardware
[08:02] <cbx33> that's what livecds are for
[08:02] <cbx33> blue-frog, heheh and we all know how successful that can be ;)
[08:02] <cbx33> boness, what's the goal of moving it?
[08:03] <ubuntu> un_operateur: you still there?
[08:03] <pike_> lspci -v  show it? sorry in class right now cant talk much
[08:03] <crimsun_> LazyAce: you don't have a pci sound card listed
[08:03] <LazyAce> i know, thats the problem lol
[08:03] <blue-frog> cbx33: well when I was using windows I never had problems and I moved quite a lot of them to avoid reinstalling for endless hours..
[08:03] <cbx33> ubuntu doesn;t take endless hours to install :p
[08:03] <boness> cbx33: the other machine doesn't have a CD driver.... so what is the live cd for? what will it do for me?
[08:03] <cbx33> and if you copy your home partition off first...then all your settings are retained
[08:03] <ubuntu> cbx33: huh?
[08:03] <blue-frog> cbx33 you're preaching a converted man so..
[08:04] <cbx33> blue-frog, heheh

[08:06] <Music_Shuffle> ..
[08:06] <Aggrav8d> does ubuntu come with a default firewall that might be blocking pings, http?
[08:06] <Music_Shuffle> !firewall
[08:06] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).

[08:18] <lovloss> and i have yet to fill it up
[08:19] <derek_> only :)
[08:19] <nette> someone know what to do with "Unknown X window" ??

[08:19] <moab_> does anyone know the location of an iso for Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy)?
[08:19] <Stormx2> Whats a good command to find the files that take up the most space in directory x?
[08:20] <nolimitsoya> derek_, please remember that ubuntu comes integrated with office equivalents, photoshop eq:s, etc, etc etc. you cant compare straight of to windows, fex
[08:20] <matallo> i have 30 gigs
[08:20] <FirstStrike> hmm
[08:20] <FirstStrike> !breezy
[08:20] <ubotu> breezy was the third release of Ubuntu. Version 5.10, codename "Breezy Badger"

[08:21] <FirstStrike> moab_: a quick search for breezy badger was all it took. google is your friend.
[08:21] <lovloss> i have an AVI in DV format called first.avi. I want it to be an mpeg so that it takes up less space.
[08:21] <nette> someone know what to do with "Unknown X window" ??

[08:22] <nette> cld2, yeah windows sucks
[08:22] <nolimitsoya> derek_, my (pretty straight forward) xubuntu feisty install, with wine and some candy is 2.5gb installed. leave some elbowroom for creating / restoring backups and installing "heave" applications en masse
[08:23] <__mikem> LjL, who was that?
[08:23] <derek_> nolimitsoya: okay
[08:23] <wy_> Yeah!! The wireless lan works now!
[08:23] <philo23> hey, is there a way i can access my HDD from live CD?
[08:23] <computermc> cld2: I knew it started with an "l" but I couldn't remember that other letter. Thanks!
[08:23] <LjL> __mikem, i haven't the slightest idea. didn't look like he was seeking for Ubuntu support.
[08:23] <derek_> btw, does anyone know if bluez is installed with 6.10?
[08:23] <Music_Shuffle> lol.
[08:23] <__mikem> lol

[08:24] <|thunder> Off Topic: A friend asked me to fix his Dell, it has a busted mobo. The case Has only 4 rear slots pro pci cards. The mobo that is in it has only 3 pci slots and integrated video. The case is full size. My question is: will a mini OR a regular ATX both fit in it? I know micro atx is too small. I want to make sure I get the right size for it.
[08:24] <lovloss> i tried this mencoder First.avi -o first.mpeg -nosound -ovc libdv
[08:24] <matallo> the specs
[08:24] <matallo> http://mediaconverter.garage.maemo.org/Media%20Converter.html

[08:25] <|thunder> wy_; put a # in front ofi t
[08:25] <nette> anyone with ati radeon card that has installed ati drivers????
[08:25] <lovloss> yay! perfect~!

[08:26] <|thunder> wy_; let it up ?
[08:26] <wy_> |thunder: I mean load the module etc...

[08:27] <|thunder> once a module is loaded, it stays there
[08:27] <derek_> nette: wasn't your card detected by ubuntu?
[08:27] <matallo> what do you think amd64 is good for intel core2 duo processors?
[08:27] <Music_Shuffle> ..?
[08:27] <nette> derek_, yes it was. but i must have radeon drivers to install beryl..:)
[08:27] <|thunder> philo23; try man mount. it'll be somethingl like, mount -t auto /dev/hda1 /media/hda1     make sure the dir exists in /media/

[08:28] <Music_Shuffle> Did you try...THAT page?
[08:28] <matallo> i'd like to help developing ubuntu maybe I should start by translating?
[08:29] <Paradoxx> !nvidia
[08:29] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[08:29] <kcinna> My X server will now longer start.  I downloaded the nvidia beta drivers off the official website and installed them in the standard way.  The error message says that the nvidia kernel module has a different version than the x module.. any clues where i should begin?

[08:30] <lgp> Hi,all
[08:30] <matallo> hi lgp
[08:30] <Music_Shuffle> kcinna, a reboot cured it the one time I had that issue.

[08:31] <Music_Shuffle> Heh.
[08:31] <kcinna> Music_Shuffle, thing is, it was actually working before, and after a restart it no longer works
[08:31] <lgp> does anyone where to get the Sims for Linux?
[08:31] <Music_Shuffle> kcinna, right same thing I did. I hit the reset switch again, and it came up fine.

[08:33] <matallo> login in safe mode
[08:33] <matallo> at grub
[08:33] <nolimitsoya> Music_Shuffle, anyone who is able to use it without doing rm -rf on / is to be considered "good at sudo" :)
[08:33] <matallo> rusty
[08:34] <MarkuS---> server irc.tin.it
[08:34] <Music_Shuffle> Hahaha
[08:34] <nolimitsoya> Rusty_, its the same password
[08:34] <philo23> my pc give this error on start up "Error when loading the operational system" but in portugeese, i'm from the uk and my pc worked fine this morning, i'm wondering what could be up?
[08:34] <Rusty_> will it let me change username password then
[08:34] <sharp15> Rusty_: you can probably abort the boot and use "passwd <user name>" at the command line.
[08:34] <nolimitsoya> Rusty_, your root password and you personalpassword is the same
[08:34] <nolimitsoya> !root | Rusty_
[08:34] <ubotu> Rusty_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:34] <dave__> how do you delet a folder from /bin
[08:34] <nolimitsoya> dave__, if you have to ask, you dont ;) ever
[08:35] <Rusty_> I have tried for over two hours and no luck with the password
[08:35] <matallo> sudo rm -rf /bin/whatever
[08:35] <kcinna> arg, same problem
[08:35] <dave__> i know i've move a folder into /bin and i dont want it there

[08:35] <dave__> sorry
[08:35] <kcinna> an API mismatch
[08:35] <nolimitsoya> dave__, make double sure you dont do anything wrong. you have been warned :)
[08:36] <dave__> K
[08:36] <zylche> He has spelled k incorrectly!
[08:36] <matallo> "i know i've move a folder into /bin" if he has moved to bin probably it won't be useful
[08:36] <wy_> anyone noticed that acrobat reader doesn't work in edgy?
[08:37] <plsDaemon> Still haven't got NVIDIA working: what the should I do in case of API MISMATCH?
[08:37] <orgasmatron> what are you talking about
[08:37] <philo23> my pc give this error on start up "Error when loading the operational system" but in portugeese, i'm from the uk and my pc worked fine this morning, i'm wondering what could be up?

[08:38] <pike_> philo23: portuguese is a facinating language you should take time to learn it :)
[08:38] <sharp15> tdog: if you install kdocker or alltray you can force just about any gui application into the taskbar/toolbar.
[08:38] <matallo> rusty_ login in safe mode
[08:38] <matallo> and the #passwd user
[08:38] <dave__> emm its saying that i cannot remove because its a directory

[08:39] <Rusty_> how do i login in safemode
[08:39] <tdog> thaks. but im looking for a program that can check Multiple email accounts
[08:39] <Rusty_> I have tried
[08:39] <gerry_> hello
[08:39] <matallo> in grub
[08:39] <gerry_> how can i copy an ecrypted dvd quickly? with gui eventually
[08:39] <nolimitsoya> dave__, dirs are removed with rmdir, and recursively with rm -r
[08:39] <tdog> im using gnome , so i can not use kdocker
[08:39] <nolimitsoya> gerry_, mkisofs
[08:40] <dave__> k

[08:40] <plsDaemon> yep
[08:40] <Aggrav8d> ok, here's the rub:  my ip has port 22 open, successfully forwarded for ssh.  i have the exact same config for port 80 but auditmypc.com says it is closed.  apache is running without a problem.  i have no firewall software running (yet).  wtf is going wrong?
[08:40] <nolimitsoya> Rusty_, yes
[08:40] <gerry_> nolimitsoya, for dvds as well?
[08:40] <cyberjack> hi my friends i try to find an ubuntu CD provider in Turkey
[08:40] <matallo> what's better for intel core2 duo x86 or amd64?
[08:40] <nolimitsoya> gerry_, yes

[08:41] <dave__> Thanks for your help
[08:41] <alien_> :@ :@ My mails missing for a long time and now it's clear that there must be another reason of this than people dont write emails to me... :@ :@ :@ I use Evolution Mail. Anyway I experienced the same under windows xp with thunderbird.. What can be the problem? Anyone?
[08:41] <pike_> philo23: could someone be messing with you? thats a little odd
[08:41] <haxality> hey, I was wondering if anyone here owns a western digital MyBook external hard drive
[08:41] <haxality> I'm curious about how well its various features work under Ubuntu
[08:41] <reverseblade> ubuntu rocks, period
[08:41] <philo23> pike_: its not someone messing with me i'm sure
[08:41] <matallo> nolimitsoya, won't ripping and calculating be faster?
[08:41] <Rusty_> ok I have logged in as root in recovery mode now how do I change a user password
[08:42] <plsDaemon> kcinna: apparently something needs to be done with linux-image and restricted modules...
[08:42] <john___> hellp
[08:42] <haxality> Rusty_: passwd <user> without the <>
[08:42] <haxality> Rusty_: man passwd for more information about the passwd command
[08:42] <john___> I am looking for a rar pass cracker under linux
[08:42] <nolimitsoya> matallo, calculating what? i thought you wanted to copy it. an iso is a bit-for-bit copy
[08:42] <gerry_> nolimitsoya, are you sure? the man only talk about isofs and cds
[08:42] <pike_> philo23: i changed the rgamma setting on my coworkers pc yesterday to turn it pink and he ordered a new monitor you never know..
[08:42] <sharp15> tdog: alltray doesn't care which one you're using (i don't think).  it will force Thunderbird, KMail, and Evolution into the taskbar.
[08:42] <reverseblade> john___, google it
[08:42] <jhaitas> does anyone know of a good program for extracting a .sit archive???
[08:42] <cyberjack> hi my friends i try to find an ubuntu CD provider in Turkey
[08:42] <cyberjack> hi my friends i try to find an ubuntu CD provider in Turkey
[08:42] <tdog> thanks

[08:43] <john___> reverseblade: I didn't find any thing
[08:43] <jhaitas> does anyone know of a good program in the repos for extracting a .sit archive???
[08:43] <nolimitsoya> gerry_, you can make iso:s out of every thing possible, unless you hit the 2gb file size limit
[08:43] <kcinna> pls-daemon, i'm sadly a linux newbie and thought ubuntu was user-friendly
[08:43] <philo23> pike_: no one i know could change this, and no one gets access to my pc physically because i'm on it 24/7, i just restarted it and it no longer works
[08:43] <Rusty_> ok i am rebooting to see if this works
[08:43] <sharp15> tdog: never mind.  alltray isn't in the repos.
[08:43] <reverseblade> kcinna, it is. what's up
[08:43] <matallo> nolimitsoya, I mean once installed processing is faster
[08:43] <reverseblade> Rusty_, no need to reboot
[08:43] <nolimitsoya> gerry_, well, technicaly you can still make the iso, but you must use a compatible fs instad of the standard
[08:43] <jhaitas> does anyone know of a good program in the repos for extracting a .sit archive???
[08:43] <Rusty_> I have been away from Linux for over a year now
[08:43] <reverseblade> Rusty_, just try login <user>
[08:43] <tdog> i installed kdocker.

[08:43] <gerry_> nolimitsoya, i need to copy a dvd...

[08:44] <reverseblade> !repeat | jhaitas
[08:44] <ubotu> jhaitas: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[08:44] <kcinna> damn i cant even copy and paste haha
[08:44] <matallo> i'm spanish so i may be speaking wrong english ;)
[08:44] <kcinna> i feel likeits 1987 right now
[08:44] <nolimitsoya> gerry_, if you want to copy it to the hardrive, make an iso out of it. if you just want to copy to another dvd, use you burner of choice
[08:44] <jhaitas> thank you ubotu
[08:44] <reverseblade> kcinna, pasting to where ?
[08:44] <jhaitas> and reverseblade
[08:44] <kcinna> a web browser
[08:44] <kcinna> lynx i guess? lol
[08:45] <reverseblade> jhaitas, ubotu is a bot
[08:45] <gerry_> nolimitsoya, ok. k3b says it cannot generate all the css keys

[08:45] <reverseblade> !welcome | jhaitas
[08:45] <ubotu> jhaitas: Welcome to #ubuntu - the Ubuntu support channel.
[08:45] <kcinna> my mouse doesnt work in the terminal
[08:45] <Rusty_> if I get to login I am gonna upgrade distro to 6.06 is anyone here running it and having problem or maybe I should go up agian to 6.10 any advice
[08:45] <sharp15> tdog: to start type "kdocker" into a terminal.  it really should be bound to a keyboard shortcut, but i've no idea how to do that in gnome.
[08:45] <nolimitsoya> gerry_, thats strange... bit-for-bit copying shouldnt fail, ever. (spare anglular copy protection software, which isnt used on dvd:s)
[08:46] <reverseblade> kcinna, it should. just right click and paste
[08:46] <jhaitas> ok guys
[08:46] <jhaitas> i'm not an irc nerd
[08:46] <jhaitas> i'm trying to become more involved in the ubuntu community
[08:46] <matallo> neither I!
[08:46] <matallo> me too
[08:46] <reverseblade> Rusty_, definitely 6.10
[08:46] <nolimitsoya> gerry_, have you installed all the dvd packages for k3b that arent depends, but suggested?
[08:46] <matallo> i asked about translatios as the first step for developing
[08:46] <kcinna> reverseblade, it doesnt.. im using a brand new install of ubuntu 6.06 lts
[08:47] <reverseblade> jhaitas, linux is some times painful, but 95% of cases there is always a solution
[08:47] <kcinna> with no graphical interface
[08:47] <Rusty_> I am only runnning an old IBM R31 with 256 ram and 1.3 celeron I don't have wifi or even USB 2.0 6.10 may be too much
[08:47] <gerry_> nolimitsoya, i think yes
[08:47] <reverseblade> kcinna, what terminal are you using? gnome console ?
[08:47] <oxygenthief> can anyone tell the command to ajust the resolution of a game.
[08:47] <bruenig> Rusty_, you can go with xubuntu

[08:48] <hi-jack> I'm really having a horribly time trying to get my printer (hp1020) to work after installing samba. I think it has to do with Bug #39484. It worked fine before I installed samba. I need the printer more than I need the file sharing. Does anybody have any experience getting printers to work under samba? Alternatively, how can I uninstall samba and restore cups to its original state?
[08:48] <philo23> my pc give this error on start up "Error when loading the operational system" but in portugeese, i'm from the uk and my pc worked fine this morning, i'm wondering what could be up?
[08:48] <kcinna> reverseblade bitchx
[08:48] <tony__> i get error when i type that . but it seems some of my apps are now listed on toolbar , i guess kdocker is working .
[08:48] <bruenig> Deag1, or ubuntuguide.org
[08:48] <oxygenthief> cube when it starts you can't see  it
[08:48] <Deag1> im not even sure
[08:48] <Deag1> but it had like flash player
[08:48] <reverseblade> hi-jack, i do. it is pretty painless if your printer is supported
[08:48] <reverseblade> kcinna, you cannot use your mouse default in that mode
[08:49] <bruenig> Deag1, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279990 for flash player

[08:49] <hi-jack> reverseblade,  both my printers (hp1020 and hp 5l) have support. They worked well until I installed samba. Now I get cupsdAuthorize: Local authentication certificate not found! as an error in my cups-error log

[08:50] <plsDaemon> I mean kernel
[08:50] <Rusty_> ok wish me luck I am gonna go to 6.06 LTS first for awhile and see how it does....Hope everyone here has a Merry Xmas and A great new year thanks for the help will be talking to you again I am sure
[08:50] <ubuntuuser> what sort of stuff can you do with it?
[08:50] <reverseblade> hi-jack, you installed samba to where ?
[08:50] <Deag1> ive looked around on there and couldnt find it
[08:50] <oxygenthief> is there anyway to make game play at resolition that my laptop can handle or must I use my desktop
[08:50] <Ziekke> I've tried installing 6.06LTS and 6.10 Server CD distro and with both installations as soon as my system passes GRUB it just restarts automatically, repeating this cycle. What causes this and is there any way to fix it?

[09:03] <reverseblade> Valmarko, steel lamp, rails stuff ?
[09:03] <kcinna> nolimitsoya theres one called just "linux" is that it?
[09:03] <mc44> Deag1: info about sudo?
[09:03] <dllh> Err_, did you try "killall dhclient" and then "dhclient" ?
[09:03] <nolimitsoya> kcinna, no
[09:03] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - ive done that about a million times lol.
[09:03] <Josh_> I can't get ubuntu to boot please help!
[09:04] <kcinna> nolimitsoya thats the closest i found
[09:04] <Deag1> well this info page had install instructions for wine flash java and like 10 other common programs
[09:04] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - i might be retarded lol but not that much heh.
[09:04] <Err_> dllh: no, i've never done that
[09:04] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, do you have an iso image in your disk
[09:04] <Valmarko> :) just exploring
[09:04] <Err_> dllh: should i just type those into terminal?
[09:04] <dllh> Err_, or in any case, restart the interface somehow and then do 'dmesg' at the command line to see if there's any helpful output
[09:04] <JulieJulie> Josh_ Im having the same problem heh.
[09:04] <dllh> Err_, I think thos'll work in ubuntu
[09:04] <sharp15> Josh_: define "won't boot" please.
[09:04] <boness> hello again
[09:04] <bruenig> Deag1, just tell us what you want to install, and we can instruct
[09:05] <mc44> Deag1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats this one?
[09:05] <Deag1> let me check
[09:05] <reverseblade> How can I be a Jedi ?
[09:05] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - On the cds ive burned?  Which is what I was saying even just to click on the D: drive to see if its on there it says it gives an error so what it looks like is that its nothing on it.  Which is why I was telling you I was burning it with Infra Record.  Ive made 4 boot up disks already and none of them hav eworked.
[09:05] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, all software is installed the same way; from the repos, through synaptic/apt/aptitude
[09:05] <Josh_> i couldn't get live cd to work, so i installed it with the alt cd... when i go to boot it up it gets stuck on the where it says ubuntu with the lil bar goin back and forth
[09:05] <Err_> dllh: what do you mean by restart the interface?
[09:05] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, in teh rare occation you might need to build something, see !build
[09:05] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, please specify each step while you are burning your CD in detail
[09:05] <Astaroth_> where's that world domination function they promised me?
[09:06] <boness> I have booted from Ubuntu Live CD and clicked to install it. I just installed Ubuntu without asking me what kind of installation I would like to do (workstation, server) and did not ask which packages I would like to install. Is is write? I remember having some options....
[09:06] <kcinna> plsDaemon what should i be looking for in xorg.conf?
[09:06] <reverseblade> Astaroth_, end of 2009, really
[09:06] <zero_> alguien sabe algo de DirectFB ???
[09:06] <dllh> Err_, using whatever gui took you have, restart the network service
[09:06] <Deag1> nah that wasnt it
[09:06] <nolimitsoya> boness, you shouldnt be asked any of that
[09:06] <Ziekke> I'm having problems installing the 6.10 server CD.
[09:06] <zero_> alguien sabe algo de DirectFB ???
[09:06] <Astaroth_> reverseblade: kthxbye
[09:06] <yrlnry> Someone sent me an IM with Gaim, and now the gaim item in the application bar at the bottom of the screen is blinking.
[09:06] <Err_> dllh: when i do that it tells me it was unable to restart interface
[09:06] <yrlnry> How do I stop it from blinking?
[09:06] <pike_> boness: havent used livecd but i believe you need alternate for that now
[09:06] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - I put the blank in, then open up Infra Record go to action and click on burn image, open the iso file that I want to burn and then it does it burn process and pops out and say is complete.
[09:06] <zero_> alguien sabe algo de DirectFB ???
[09:06] <dllh> ok, now in terminal, type "dmesg:
[09:06] <boness> nolimitsoya: and now to install apache etc I need to go to synaptic?
[09:06] <dllh> oops
[09:06] <Deag1> you see i am very new but i actually understood what was going on in that site lol and mc 44 send it to me
[09:06] <dllh> "dmesg"
[09:07] <Deag1> o well i guess
[09:07] <nolimitsoya> yrlnry, thats normal
[09:07] <reverseblade> boness, server CD is different, that is how it should be, you can install what ever you want after the primary install
[09:07] <Josh_> i couldn't get live cd to work, so i installed it with the alt cd... when i go to boot it up it gets stuck on the where it says ubuntu with the lil bar goin back and forth
[09:07] <edgy> Hi, I have /etc/apache2/conf.d/charset:AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 but still HEAD mywebsite.com says Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
[09:07] <nolimitsoya> boness, yes, or use apt-get
[09:07] <ms-sucker> !jack
[09:07] <nolimitsoya> !apt | boness
[09:07] <ubotu> jack: Rip and encode CDs with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.1.1+cvs20050801-11 (edgy), package size 125 kB, installed size 580 kB
[09:07] <ubotu> boness: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[09:07] <yrlnry> nolimitsoya: Is it going to keep blinking forever?
[09:07] <pike_> Josh_: can you alt-ctrl-f2 to a login screen?
[09:07] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, instead find the ISO image from windows explorer right click it , then click burn (or a similar option)
[09:07] <yrlnry> I tghout the point was thta it blinks when you get a message, so you know to go look at it.
[09:07] <nolimitsoya> yrlnry, no, just till you click it and read the message
[09:07] <yrlnry> I want it to stop blinking until I get another message.
[09:07] <ms-sucker> hmpf
[09:07] <yrlnry> Well, I did click it, several times.
[09:08] <kcinna> nolimitsoya the description for Linux is "generic complete linux kernel'
[09:08] <kcinna> that sounds like what you suggested
[09:08] <Josh_> not sure... but id say no... the graphical boot display just feezes the second it comes up
[09:08] <nolimitsoya> kcinna, that not right. are you running edgy or dapper?
[09:08] <reverseblade> kcinna, do you have any data with your installation ?
[09:08] <kcinna> nolimitsoya dapper
[09:08] <yrlnry> I just clikced it again.  Then I minimized and re-maximized the chat window.  it is still blinking.
[09:08] <boness> tks
[09:08] <ms-sucker> r bla
[09:08] <nolimitsoya> kcinna, then forget everything i said :) sorry for wasting your time
[09:08] <yrlnry> So, to repeat my original question: How do I stop it from blinking?
[09:08] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - or could I possible try nero?  Would that be more dependable since with infra record ive had no luck.
[09:08] <kcinna> nolimitsoya no worries
[09:08] <dllh> Err_, any luck with dmesg?
[09:09] <Josh_> could it maybe be a hardware conflict?
[09:09] <Deag1> !install
[09:09] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, first do as exactly I said, if it not works you may try nero
[09:09] <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
[09:09] <kcinna> reverseblade im sure theres data somewhere? the os takes up several gbs's
[09:09] <Deag1> !programs install
[09:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about programs install - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:09] <reverseblade> kcinna, I mean do you have any personal data that you do not want to lose ?
[09:09] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, please stop it. just use synaptic, or ask for help
[09:09] <kcinna> nope
[09:09] <Err_> dllh: it keeps saying tx timeout and new link status: connected (0001)
[09:09] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - instead of opening up up the image just right click and burn from infra?
[09:09] <bruenig> !fishing
[09:09] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[09:10] <pike_> Josh_: the splashscreen is a pain no real info.. if you cand alt-ctrlf1 and see what its actually doing maybe boot single user shell and disable splash screen
[09:10] <Deag1> !wine
[09:10] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:10] <dllh> Err_, hmmm, I've never seen that; perhaps google the message and see if it turns up anything
[09:10] <Josh_> because right before it gets to that point a lot of text flashes on the screen and i saw something about "Warning PnP bios cuased fatal error" or something
[09:10] <reverseblade> [g2] , I couldn't figure out what I did ,really, anyway glad it worked
[09:11] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, right click the ISO file from windows explorer and find an option, "burn", "write" , or  "open with your burner" ,etc
[09:11] <[g2] > reverseblade it appears there's a hidden dependency on xorg (or some other xserver) for gdm what wasn't fullfilled by apt-get install gdm
[09:11] <Err_> dllh: ok thanks
[09:11] <igor> somebody knows how to install XMMS in ubuntu 5.04
[09:11] <nolimitsoya> igor, sudo apt-get install xmms
[09:11] <[g2] > reverseblade an apt-get install xorg "fixed" the issue
[09:11] <Josh_> because right before it gets to that point a lot of text flashes on the screen and i saw something about "Warning PnP bios cuased fatal error" or something
[09:11] <reverseblade> igcek, why not use a newer ubuntu ?
[09:11] <kcinna> nolimitsoya do you have any clues for how to proceed in dapper drake?
[09:11] <reverseblade> [g2] , ok, I am glad
[09:11] <nolimitsoya> igor, anyhow, you realy should upgrade. you are using a severly outdated operatingsystem
[09:11] <kcinna> it was working but it stopped after a reboot
[09:12] <reverseblade> kcinna, can you afford formatting your drive?
[09:12] <[g2] > thx
[09:12] <kcinna> reverseblade i'd rather not.. i just did to install the OS
[09:12] <nolimitsoya> reverseblade, kcinna, that should only be a last resort
[09:12] <kcinna> it was working fine enough but i wanted opengl support
[09:12] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - it has no option of that. I have open, send to, cut copy and so forth.
[09:12] <reverseblade> kcinna, insalling OS is no biggie, if you can afford, I strongly recommend using 6.10 instead of 6.06
[09:12] <nolimitsoya> kcinna, revert to vesa or nv 'till you find a solution. i couldbe that the modules for your new kernel hasnt hit the repos yes
[09:12] <pike_> josh_ could you put boot option pnpbios=off ?
[09:13] <reverseblade> nolimitsoya, may be, but edgy is far far better than dapper
[09:13] <kcinna> how do i do that?
[09:13] <Ziekke> can anyone help me with a 6.10 server install?
[09:13] <nolimitsoya> reverseblade, kcinna, exchanging dapper for edgy can be a very unwize thing to do. thats why both of them are actively developed and supported
[09:13] <antman_> what would the xorg install do
[09:13] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, for ISO file is that sure
[09:13] <mom> hallo ihr ficker
[09:13] <antman_> ive sort of messed things up with gnome
[09:14] <antman_> cant log in
[09:14] <reverseblade> nolimitsoya, theoretically yes, in practice no. Edgy should be the one with LTS support
[09:14] <linnea_> I just installed ubuntu 6.10 on my grandmother's computer.  She's only got 128 MB of RAM, and I wonder if that might be the cause of some of the strange behavior I'm seeing.
[09:14] <nolimitsoya> reverseblade, you base that on what?
[09:14] <pike_> antman_: alt-ctrl-f2 then login then rm -fr .g* then alt-ctrl-f7 and see if it works now
[09:14] <linnea_> Several applications, including the shutdown/logout window, refuse to start
[09:14] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - pardon me?  I didn't understand the question
[09:14] <reverseblade> nolimitsoya, based on my experience. Also others that I read in forums
[09:14] <kcinna> nolimitsoya what do you mean revert to vesa or nv?
[09:14] <nolimitsoya> !worksforme | reverseblade
[09:14] <ubotu> reverseblade: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[09:15] <reverseblade> nolimitsoya, so ?
[09:15] <nolimitsoya> kcinna, set up you xserver to run on the vesa- or nv driver instead of the binary nvidia
[09:15] <linnea_> the first one to display such belligerence was the system help
[09:15] <Ziekke> can anyone help me with a 6.10 server install?
[09:15] <reverseblade> nolimitsoya, this doesn't prevent me, to declare my opinion
[09:15] <nolimitsoya> reverseblade, im not going to argue this. its offtopic material anyway. just trust me on it
[09:15] <reverseblade> ok
[09:15] <kcinna> nolimitsoya sounds good, is that a simple command or something i have to change in xorg.conf?
[09:16] <segfault_> Ziekke, someone probably can but u havent asked a question yet
[09:16] <Ziekke> i've asked a few times :P
[09:16] <nolimitsoya> kcinna, 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' will get you a setup wizard
[09:16] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, are you sure ?
[09:16] <snedar> hi! is there a way to get nvidial-glx 9631 in edgy using the official repositories? or any chance that it will be backported soon?
[09:16] <snedar> s/nvidial/nvidia
[09:16] <Ziekke> after I install 6.10 server it restarts the machine to boot the OS, only as soon as it passes GRUB it reboots by itself
[09:16] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, is this an ISO file in the first place ?
[09:16] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - I am positive lol I can print scan it to show you.
[09:16] <antman_> k will try thx much
[09:16] <Ziekke> it's almost like it tries to load the kernel then just restarts with no error message or anything
[09:16] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, is it an ISO file ?
[09:16] <cdavis_> in oocalc I want to have an if statement for a range of numbers, ie if a1 >1 and a1 < 5
[09:16] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso
[09:17] <Ziekke> it happens with both 6.10 server and 6.06 LTS server
[09:17] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - is what it says when I properties it
[09:17] <reverseblade> JulieJulie , hmm ok
[09:17] <yrlnry> Aha.  There's a "message notification" menu in the "preferences" dialog that has options for "remove when conversation window gets focus".  By default, the notification is only removed when you start typing a reply message or send one.
[09:17] <nolimitsoya> JulieJulie, if you are trying to burn it, make sure that you burn it as an image and not a file, and make sure to hash it to check fordownload corruption.
[09:17] <Deag1> this is so darn confusing
[09:18] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, what is?straightening out questionmarks is what we are here fore :)
[09:18] <JulieJulie> nolimitsoya - I am really sure it is a image I am burning I go to ACTION - BURN IMAGE - in Infra Recorder
[09:18] <nolimitsoya> *-e
[09:18] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, note that , writing an ISO is different than writing a data file. ISO is not a data but is an image. ensure that you are writing an ISO and not a data, second, be sure that, your computer looks for a CD rom to boot before your hardrive
[09:18] <nolimitsoya> JulieJulie, good. did you hash it?
[09:18] <linnea_> i'm hoping there's a way for me to reboot the computer without having to simply cut power
[09:18] <derFlo> hi
[09:18] <JulieJulie> nolimitsoya - i also have that win5sum5 reader thing to make sure it is the same hash I believe right?
[09:18] <nolimitsoya> linnea_, of course there is :)
[09:18] <reverseblade> linnea_, sudo reboot
[09:18] <kcinna> nolimitsoya thanks so much for you help man
[09:18] <haxality> does anyone own a Western Digital mybook hard drive?
[09:19] <britton> where can I find a good sources.list?  I need the backport, lultiverse, and universe repos enabled but I don't use synaptic; all of the sites I see give info about enebling them through synaptic
[09:19] <Ziekke> Does the 6.10 server CD come with an alternate kernel that I can install on the system from the Rescue mode? Or is there any way to reinstall the kernel from Rescue mode at all?
[09:19] <linnea_> but i can't open a terminal window
[09:19] <nolimitsoya> JulieJulie, yes. did it match up?
[09:19] <reverseblade> linlin, what? why ?
[09:19] <CydeWeys> I am limited to changing my monitor resolution to 640x480 or 800x600 yet I know for a fact my monitor supports larger than this.  What to do?
[09:19] <JulieJulie> reverseblade - i have made sure of all of that already too.
[09:19] <linnea_> is there an equivalent to ctrl-alt-del on ubuntu?
[09:19] <nolimitsoya> linnea_, ctrl+alt+f2. log in, and do sudo reboot
[09:19] <reverseblade> britton, that's good enough
[09:19] <Deag1> ok i had this website that told me to type some sudo thing for each program i wanted to get so i accidentally misplaced it now i was directed to a new website to install wine and i have no idea whats going on im totally new to linux and very frustrated
[09:19] <JulieJulie> nolimitsoya - Yes indeed it did match up.
[09:19] <nolimitsoya> kcinna,  np :)
[09:19] <nolimitsoya> JulieJulie, and your problem was?
[09:19] <Deag1> its telling me i have to download stuff and what not
[09:19] <haxality> on a wine-related note, I installed starcraft with wine, and I can't launch it without getting booted back to GDM.
[09:19] <nolimitsoya> JulieJulie, sorry for asking, but i didnt follow the matter from the start
[09:19] <haxality> any ideas?
[09:20] <reverseblade> JulieJulie, either there is problem with your CD burner, or the burning program, try to burn it from another computer. OR order a CD from distrowatch, if you can wait
[09:20] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, just type 'sudo apt-get install wine' in a terminal
[09:20] <haxality> I think it has something to do with changing resolutions
[09:20] <britton> reverseblade: what's good enough?
[09:20] <plsDaemon> AUDIO: Anyone know support for Realtek ALC883? Can't get anything to work...
[09:20] <Err_> my wireless card is listed under my network devices as eth1 instead of wlan0, and when i try to enable it, it instantly enables then disables
[09:20] <Deag1> ok one second
[09:20] <reverseblade> britton, your current sources.list file
[09:20] <JulieJulie> nolimitsoya - heh not a problem, it doesn't boot up and when I click on the D: drive to see what is on the cd it says its a blank disc.  Ive made about 4 of these boot up disks using infra record already.
[09:20] <kcinna_> YAY back to the GUI
[09:20] <haxality> well, thanks...
[09:21] <britton> I don;t have entries for univers/multiverse/backports repos in my sources.list reverseblade
[09:21] <nolimitsoya> JulieJulie, then something is probablyup with either your recorder or you drivers
[09:21] <Ziekke> Does the 6.10 server CD come with an alternate kernel that I can install on the system from the Rescue mode? Or is there any way to reinstall the kernel from Rescue mode at all?
[09:21] <reverseblade> britton, what happend to them ?
[09:21] <Deag1> it didnt work
[09:21] <HymnToLife> Ziekke, just apt-get it
[09:21] <tannerld> Right now the update manager is downloading the latest oo updates; currently downloading the last package, if I click cancel will it install the reset?
[09:21] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, errormessage?
[09:21] <Deag1> should i past eit?
[09:21] <reverseblade> Ziekke, yes there is
[09:21] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, are you running edgy or dapper?
[09:22] <britton> I don't know reverseblade  I did a minimal install on an old laptop and installed a command line system then installed fluxbox
[09:22] <Deag1> no idea

[09:22] <igorcg> yes but when i did it I recived a error mensage
[09:22] <igorcg> apt-get install dindn't work here
[09:22] <JulieJulie> nolimitsoya - hmm, im not sure  im going to try this once more using nero and see how it goes.
[09:22] <reverseblade> britton, ok then, you should look for a good sources.list. I suggest you dig the forums, prolly you would find there
[09:22] <bruenig> igorcg, can you sudo apt-get update?
[09:22] <JulieJulie> i'll be right back though going to restart
[09:22] <Deag1> after i do that what do i do
[09:23] <igorcg> in will try
[09:23] <Deag1> it give me some numbers
[09:23] <derFlo> i need the console command for rhythmbox to play next titel to stop, previous title and so on.

[09:23] <linnea_> thanks for the ctrl-alt-f2 tip, that's quite useful
[09:24] <Ziekke> How can I do that reverseblade?
[09:24] <square> hi, i'm using a laptop with a dual graphics card in it, but the secondary screen isn't always liked, does anyone have an idea about setting up dual graphics cards? its an intel card
[09:24] <linnea_> is there any way to escape from that if i decide i don't actually want to reboot?
[09:24] <nolimitsoya> linnea_, no
[09:24] <Ziekke> I think the kernel is what's wrong with my system, because as soon as it boots into Ubuntu it restarts the computer...
[09:24] <nolimitsoya> linnea_, well, not when youve typed the command...
[09:24] <nolimitsoya> linnea_, to get back to you graphical environment, press ctrl+alt+f7
[09:24] <linnea_> okay, thanks
[09:25] <reverseblade> Ziekke, just download the kernel and make it. I am not sure of the exact procedure. but you could find one in forums
[09:25] <jorge_> hola no e podido solucionar mi problema da la tarjeta de sonido
[09:25] <Deag1> nolimitsoya , i have entered that and i just get numbers
[09:25] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, what numbers?
[09:25] <Ziekke> are there any actual ubuntu support people here at all? lol
[09:25] <bruenig> Ziekke, by actual you mean?
[09:25] <Deag1> 2.6.15-26-386
[09:25] <igorcg> I recived a error message : This packege ins'nt avaliable
[09:25] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, nevermind. use the repo from winehq and itll save you some trouble
[09:25] <reverseblade> Ziekke, you may try also #linux, and #kernel, for more help
[09:25] <Ziekke> actual meaning people that know about the OS :P
[09:25] <britton> reverseblade: I think I got it figured out thank you for your help
[09:25] <Deag1> whats the repo?
[09:25] <bruenig> igorcg, pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:26] <CydeWeys> I'm looking in xorg.conf and it appears that resolutions higher than 800x600 should be available to set my screen to?

[09:26] <square> poo
[09:26] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, www.winehq.com - go to install and add the repo for ubuntu from the guide in the download section. there is a guide. that way youll always have th altest wine packages
[09:26] <Ziekke> Both the 6.06 and 6.10 server CDs install a broken OS on my system
[09:27] <Deag1> err i have tried to use that guide before and i have had problemso well thanks anyway0
[09:27] <idefix> what's the difference between back-end and front-end?
[09:27] <Ziekke> causing it to just reboot as soon as it loads ubuntu, which I'm assuming is a broken kernel from the install
[09:27] <square> can i ask a poll? what is better for you - GNOME, KDE, or XFCE?
[09:27] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, what problems?
[09:27] <kspath> square, none of the listed
[09:27] <linnea_> okay, the help centre has opened successfully
[09:27] <square> kspath, what do you use?
[09:27] <nilleso> XFCE
[09:27] <Deag1> ionno  what im doing the instructions are not setup for someone totally new
[09:27] <linnea_> i find it quite disturbing that i was having that problem before, though
[09:27] <kspath> square, I prefer  openbox3 and ion
[09:28] <stefg> Ziekke: might be a usplash issue... omitt 'quit splash' as boot parameters and see where it fails
[09:28] <square> i dont get XFCE, its too much like mac, and it has limited options ive found
[09:28] <reverseblade> Ziekke, follow this : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=56835
[09:28] <packagedeliverer> how do I change the url from which ubuntu updates/downloads the packages? (be.archive.ubuntu.com doesn't seem to work anymore)
[09:28] <nilleso> square, what options are you missing?
[09:28] <kspath> square, do not use  xfce if you do not like it    try the others  and use the one that works for you
[09:28] <square> i dont use it
[09:28] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, i remeber them as pretty much step by step... anyway, to add a repo 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list' and copypaste the apt line in there
[09:28] <square> but you get things missing like add/remove programs etc.
[09:29] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, then do 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine'
[09:29] <square> basic things included in ubuntu on gnome
[09:29] <reverseblade> packagedeliverer, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:29] <kaptengu> how can I find out which options in the kernel that are compiled in?
[09:29] <Deag1> whats the apt line
[09:29] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, ctrl+x is for exiting and saving in nano, btw
[09:29] <Ziekke> reverseblade: I don't need to know how to compile a kernel, I want to know why my system doesn't into ubuntu at all :P
[09:29] <nilleso> you can run gnome-apps in xfce, without the weight of the full WM
[09:29] <square> i have to admit, linux does run better than windows in its own way
[09:29] <Ziekke> stefg: I'm using the server install, it doesn't have splash
[09:29] <reverseblade> Ziekke, ok
[09:30] <packagedeliverer> thanks reverseblade
[09:30] <stefg> kaptengu: cat /boot/config-`uname -r`
[09:30] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt edgy main
[09:30] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, or 'dapper' instead of 'edgy' if you are running 6.06
[09:30] <square> except when i was copying music to my mp3 player, it moved the music rather than copy generally because the root was thru /media
[09:30] <eletido> in edgy, how do you turn on the bootup status messages?
[09:30] <Deag1> ok
[09:30] <kaptengu> ty stefg
[09:30] <reverseblade> eletido, status messages ?
[09:30] <Deag1> ima go try this all ill be back
[09:30] <Deag1> ty for your help in case i get lost and jump off a cliff lol
[09:30] <Ziekke> after GRUB it says "Starting up.." then the computer reboots.
[09:31] <square> well thats one for XFCE and 1 for nothing lol
[09:31] <nolimitsoya> Deag1, i hope not :)
[09:31] <eletido> reverseblade: the bootup text. like what "Starting basic networking", etc
[09:31] <nilleso> yay XFCE rocks
[09:31] <stefg> Ziekke: ah, i see... but without more info it's hard to tell what the problem causes
[09:31] <square> nilleso - hehe
[09:31] <reverseblade> eletido, less /var/log/syslog
[09:32] <reverseblade> eletido, I am not sure if this is what you want
[09:32] <square> i know this may seem stupid, but in what ways does a mac compare to ubuntu?
[09:32] <idefix> when you've got a scanner with USB, should you mount it like you mount your DVD-drive?
[09:32] <reverseblade> square, OSX resembles gnome slightly
[09:32] <linnea_> a mac is much easier to use
[09:32] <square> yeh, i like that
[09:32] <reverseblade> hehe
[09:32] <sindrum> Anyone familiar with dj decks...just wondering if there is anything like that for linux
[09:32] <Ziekke> stefg: I agree, but I have no more info. It's using the default grub boot parameters, I can't get into the OS to change anything.
[09:32] <square> hydrogen is a good drum simulator
[09:33] <eletido> reverseblade: no, not what i want.
[09:33] <Ziekke> one sec i'll get the grub boot command
[09:33] <reverseblade> Ziekke, recovery mode works ?
[09:33] <Ziekke> no
[09:33] <compengi> how to install .bin file
[09:33] <reverseblade> Ziekke, what happens when you do ?
[09:33] <reverseblade> compengi, you can install a bin file, you run it
[09:33] <reverseblade> you cant
[09:33] <sindrum> hydrogen = FTW ty
[09:33] <Ziekke> same thing as when I try to boot normal
[09:33] <eletido> reverseblade: on bootup, i want to know what the system is doing, not just see the progress bar.
[09:33] <bruenig> compengi, open a terminal and cd into its directory and do ./whatever.bin
[09:34] <nolimitsoya> compengi, you dont. its an executable. set the x bit and execute
[09:34] <Ziekke> the computer just restarts
[09:34] <square> what do people prefer to play music?
[09:34] <Onore_e_Gloria> eletido you don't want see the splash screen ... right?
[09:34] <square> or to have a library of music
[09:34] <bruenig> square, good ole rhythmbox
[09:34] <reverseblade> Zibby, chmod 755 your_bin_file.bin , then ./your_bin_file.bin
[09:34] <eletido> Onore_e_Gloria: correct.
[09:34] <square> ah rhythmbox blew out on me twice
[09:34] <nolimitsoya> compengi, for setting the bit 'chmod +x <filename>'
[09:34] <Orestes^> hi
[09:34] <Onore_e_Gloria> i'm too
[09:34] <reverseblade> square, KDE users use amarok in general
[09:34] <Ziekke> basically my system is going POST -> GRUB -> GRUB selection -> computer restarts
[09:34] <stefg> Ziekke: 'esc' and 'e' will get you to a grubs command line editor, edit the boot parameters... acpi=off could help in some cases
[09:34] <Orestes^> before upgrading my ubuntu version, I used to have a fancy popup notification window when I used the shortcut keys for volume control... I don't have them any more... Does anybody have any clue about where they have been lost?
[09:34] <square> im using Amarok, it resembles windows media player quite a bit, but is better in library
[09:34] <compengi> okay thanks
[09:34] <eletido> Onore_e_Gloria: in dapper it was splash screen and text of what was happening on boot.
[09:35] <roho> where does ubuntu get its funding from?
[09:35] <reverseblade> Ziekke, not a single line printed ?
[09:35] <CydeWeys> roho: Mark Shuttleworth
[09:35] <reverseblade> Ziekke, did you have any backups
[09:35] <roho> CydeWeys: and what's in it for him?
[09:35] <Ziekke> not a single line printed, no
[09:35] <Ziekke> backups of what
[09:35] <bruenig> roho, he is crazily rich, gives him stuff to do
[09:35] <nilleso> square: I'm using Helix Banshee... guess it's not FOSS though
[09:35] <CydeWeys> roho: That's a very myopic view of the world.
[09:35] <pike_> roho: excentric south africans
[09:35] <reverseblade> Ziekke, of the data in your hard drive ?
[09:35] <bruenig> roho, he is the guy that paid 20 million or some odd to go into space
[09:35] <square> banshee killed my last ipod
[09:35] <CydeWeys> roho: What's in it for Paul Allen in funding the Allen Telescope Array?
[09:35] <reverseblade> Ziekke, do you have any personal data ?
[09:36] <roho> bruenig: oh, that guy. cool.
[09:36] <nolimitsoya> !ipod | square
[09:36] <ubotu> square: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto
[09:36] <roho> well, ubuntu could help africa
[09:36] <reverseblade> Ziekke, re installing could be faster solution for you
[09:36] <Ziekke> personal data? It's a completely fresh install of ubuntu server
[09:36] <afief> Does anybody know if recompiling libpng can hurt my system?
[09:36] <Ziekke> i've reinstalled it.. it's a brand new install
[09:36] <CydeWeys> afief: "Hurt" in what way?  I don't really see that happening.
[09:36] <square> oh i dont bother with linux and ipod, i found its not covered in the warranty, i try and keep safe with a 219 ipod lol
[09:36] <reverseblade> Ziekke, hmm, it is broken right after the fresh install ?
[09:36] <nolimitsoya> afief, it shouldnt. why do you want to?
[09:36] <Ziekke> yes
[09:36] <idefix> how are the USB's called in the dev-directory?
[09:36] <afief> CydeWeys: as in some packages(GTK?) not working anymore
[09:37] <nolimitsoya> idefix, sd*
[09:37] <reverseblade> Ziekke, any problems from booting your live CD ?
[09:37] <reverseblade> Ziekke, or any thing weird while installation process ?
[09:37] <afief> nolimitsoya: because everytime i compile something with a gui i get problems from functions that aren't defined which should be in libpng
[09:37] <Ziekke> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/842823
[09:37] <Ziekke> that's what GRUB is booting
[09:37] <Ziekke> i've tried removing quiet and splash, as well as adding acpi=off
[09:37] <reverseblade> Ziekke, thats not an answer to my question
[09:38] <square> can anyone explain a problem with Edgy desktpo Cd? evertime ive tried to boot it up, it crashes, doesn't open anything and gets constant error messages. I've tried it with five discs now
[09:38] <afief> nolimitsoya: here is a typical example: http://pastebin.com/842805
[09:38] <Ziekke> what liveCD? I'm using the 6.10 server install CD
[09:38] <reverseblade> Ziekke, oh
[09:38] <zzzerotime> hi, I cant install vmware workstation, it says that I have another version installed, I uninstalled vmware player and still get same error can someone help me?
[09:38] <nolimitsoya> afief, are you sure you just dont lack the -dev package?
[09:38] <zzzerotime> thanx
[09:38] <Ziekke> also the 6.06 LTS server install CD
[09:38] <Ziekke> they both do the same thing
[09:38] <reverseblade> Ziekke, try noapic,  boot option also
[09:38] <square> im using 6.06 LTS desktop
[09:38] <Ziekke> but gentoo works fine on this machine
[09:38] <Ziekke> noacpi you mean?
[09:38] <reverseblade> Ziekke, multi processor ?
[09:38] <afief> nolimitsoya: i am _very_ sure about it. i've reinstalled it thrice over
[09:39] <Aggrav8d> i'm convinced there's a firewall of some kind running on my 6.10 because port forwarding is working to other machines in the office but not to this server, regardless of what service is running.
[09:39] <Ziekke> single cpu AMD K6/2 400mhz
[09:39] <reverseblade> Ziekke, no, I mean "noapic"
[09:39] <Aggrav8d> alternately every service on my machine is only listening to loopback.  how can i check to see which case is the problem?
[09:39] <square> is gaim the best instant messenger?
[09:39] <idefix> nolimitsoya: what else could it be?
[09:39] <trinkolade> yes, of course, square
[09:39] <bruenig> !best | square
[09:39] <ubotu> square: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[09:39] <Ziekke> noapic doesn't change anything
[09:40] <mc44> !best | square
[09:40] <reverseblade> Aggrav8d, configure each service one by one, there is no default fire wall installed in desktop edition
[09:40] <Ziekke> I wish there was an error message of some kind but there isn't at all
[09:40] <square> woo, im running with the guys now lol
[09:40] <reverseblade> noapic can you check the CD checksum ?
[09:40] <nolimitsoya> idefix, recogniced usb mass storage devices should come up with sd<something>
[09:40] <square> is there a webcamera function for gaim?
[09:40] <idefix> nolimitsoya: but it's a scanner
[09:40] <pike_> zzzerotime: might "locate vmware" see what was left over
[09:40] <reverseblade> Ziekke, can you check the CD checksum ?
[09:40] <afief> nolimitsoya: so, no advice? i should resume the comilation?
[09:40] <square> ive found one for aMsn, but nothing else
[09:40] <nolimitsoya> idefix, scanners are diffrent.
[09:40] <afief> compilation
[09:41] <Sp4rKy> hi
[09:41] <nolimitsoya> afief, i have no idea :) knock yourself out :)
[09:41] <Ziekke> checksum is correct
[09:41] <Aggrav8d> reverseblade - i've been trying for the last 4 hours.  i can access apache and ssh locally but i can't from the outside world.  can you help me a bit?
[09:41] <idefix> nolimitsoya do you need drivers for the scanner?
[09:41] <reverseblade> !hi | Sp4rKy
[09:41] <ubotu> Sp4rKy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:41] <pike_> zzzerotime: maybe sudo locate vmware | xargs -i rm -fr {}
[09:41] <nolimitsoya> idefix, yes you do
[09:41] <trinkolade> square, no, not yet and probably never, but aMSN provides support for msn-videochat
[09:41] <Sp4rKy> reverseblade: :)
[09:41] <Enselic`> Is it possible to pipe output from diff directly to gedit?
[09:41] <Sp4rKy> please, i want cron stop t send me a mail each time a crontab is done
[09:41] <nolimitsoya> idefix, your scanner might already be supported. have you tested the scanning software that came with ubuntu?
[09:41] <Sp4rKy> how can i do ?
[09:41] <reverseblade> Aggrav8d, I am pretty much sure that , 6.10 desktop edition do not have a firewall installed out of box
[09:41] <square> i swear once gaim had msn-videochat, it worked once
[09:41] <square> oh wait that was kopete lol
[09:42] <Aggrav8d> reverseblade - it's server version, if that matters.
[09:42] <reverseblade> Aggrav8d, yes it matters
[09:42] <square> i love the random speech bubble option for kopete, so thoughtful
[09:42] <Aggrav8d> server version has a fw?
[09:42] <reverseblade> Agrajag, could be FireStarter
[09:42] <trinkolade> square, there was once a plugin for gaim but it isn't maintained anymore
[09:42] <Aggrav8d> reverseblade - i check how?
[09:42] <reverseblade> Agrajag, check out for a process called firestarter, or check your services
[09:42] <nilleso> Sp4rky, redirect cron jobs to /dev/null 2>&1
[09:43] <reverseblade> Agrajag, pgrep firestarter, or ps -ef |grep firestarter
[09:43] <Rprp> 
[09:43] <square> firefox best we brower?
[09:43] <Sp4rKy> nilleso: and so mail won't be sent ?
[09:43] <nolimitsoya> square, thats a matter or prefernce
[09:43] <reverseblade> Agrajag, there is a command line utility for managment of services
[09:43] <nolimitsoya> *+e
[09:43] <nilleso> firestarter isn't a firewall... it's a frontend for iptables
[09:43] <Onore_e_Gloria> reverseblade,  for the boot sequence
[09:43] <Onore_e_Gloria> i dont want the splash
[09:43] <Onore_e_Gloria> only the text
[09:43] <Aggrav8d> reverseblade - droyer 12307 7456 0 12:43 pts/0  00:00:00 grep firestarter
[09:43] <nolimitsoya> nilleso, which in turn can act as a firewall, hence...
[09:43] <square> adobe flash player 9 keeps on breaking down each time i try to quit youtube.com, can anyone explain what is going on there?
[09:43] <reverseblade> square, yes, konqueror, safari are also good, but IE is a no no
[09:44] <Ziekke> I'm going to try the Alternate CD, if that fails i'm going to find a different distribution
[09:44] <bruenig> Onore_e_Gloria, go int /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:44] <idefix> drivers for windows never work for linux, right?
[09:44] <reverseblade> Agrajag, no thats your own command line
[09:44] <nolimitsoya> idefix, right
[09:44] <Aggrav8d> so then it isn't running.
[09:44] <bruenig> Onore_e_Gloria, remove the quiet splash options
[09:44] <zzzerotime> pike_, I get access denied
[09:44] <square> ie = big mess up lol
[09:44] <reverseblade> Aggrav8d, try ps -ef | grep firestarter
[09:44] <nilleso> you can kill firestarter and your FW is still running'
[09:44] <zzzerotime> even using the sudo command
[09:44] <pike_> zzzerotime: with sudo ?
[09:44] <aeromix> does someone knows why I am not allowed to modify /etc/resolv.conf? sudo echo "nameserver 195.113.0.2" > /etc/resolv.conf  - bash: /etc/resolv.conf: Permission denied
[09:44] <pike_> zzzerotime: ..
[09:44] <zzzerotime> yes
[09:44] <Reyaht> is there some site dedicated to linux drivers? cuz I can't get my wireless cards to work
[09:44] <square> AOL = just complete nonsense
[09:44] <nilleso> Sp4rky:  true
[09:45] <Aggrav8d> reverseblade - i did.  then i posted the output ("droyer 12310 " etc)

[09:45] <aeromix> square: I want to write a script..
[09:45] <reverseblade> Aggrav8d, hmm, then you should study your services. Sorry I never installed server version. I am using a desktop version for a server :)
[09:45] <pike_> zzzerotime: umm try sudo -s  then that command
[09:45] <reverseblade> aeromix, and I want to be a Jedi
[09:46] <bruenig> aeromix, it has to do with the >, the sudo is only being applied to the first part
[09:46] <bruenig> aeromix, do sudo -s, then run the command without sudo
[09:46] <square> aeromix, what desktop envirnoment are you using?
[09:46] <zzzerotime> pike_, cannot execute binary command
[09:46] <aeromix> square: gnome..why?
[09:46] <zzzerotime> pike_, /usr/bin/locate: /usr/bin/locate: cannot execute binary file
[09:46] <JackInTheGreen> hey

[09:48] <JackInTheGreen> did not work
[09:48] <bruenig> JackInTheGreen, the link is for flash 9 beta 2, much much better than the current flash 7 available in the repos
[09:48] <JackInTheGreen> and some other stuff
[09:48] <JackInTheGreen> yeah
[09:48] <nolimitsoya> bruenig, flash9is in the repos

[09:54] <christiane> Hello. Is there a substitute for "less" that can display colors output by "ls" or "colordiff"?
[09:54] <reverseblade> !firewall | Aggrav8d
[09:54] <ubotu> Aggrav8d: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[09:54] <reverseblade> hmm
[09:54] <malt> does anyone know the command to zip or tar a directory?
[09:54] <buzzed> easiest way to install flash player 9 on 6.10?
[09:54] <edgarin> Hi to all people I have a big problem with ubuntu :(
[09:55] <nolimitsoya> malt, 'tar' and 'gzip'
[09:55] <Al3k5> hiiii . 1, yay i'm getting a job as a network admin . 2. anyone know if there's a way to get the gnome desktop to display animated gif's ?
[09:55] <kitche> reverseblade: firestarter/guarddogg just amkes it easier for people to configure iptables
[09:55] <reverseblade> buzzed, easiest way is to install it from synaptic
[09:55] <christiane> malt: tar -z
[09:55] <malt> nolimitsoya: example?
[09:55] <malt> oh
[09:55] <malt> so like
[09:55] <nolimitsoya> malt, use -c <dir> to create an archive
[09:55] <malt> tar -z /home/ ?
[09:55] <buzzed> thx
[09:55] <lupine_85> malt: tar -cjf <filename> stuff
[09:55] <bruenig> malt, tar czf whatever for gzip
[09:55] <reverseblade> kitche, oh I c, but desktop edition is not that restrictive I guess
[09:55] <bruenig> malikeye|work, or what lupine_85 said for bunzip
[09:55] <lupine_85> that'll put it in .bz2 format which is the best compression realy
[09:55] <lupine_85> really*
[09:55] <christiane> malt: tar -czf the_archive.tgz /home
[09:56] <nolimitsoya> malt, 'tar -czf /home' most likely. kool in the manpages for a fulllistof options you might want to pass :)
[09:56] <reverseblade> lupine_85, and a lot slower
[09:56] <lupine_85> reverseblade: for some files
[09:56] <bruenig> lupine_85, yeah there really is no reason to bunzip unless you are obsessed with disk space
[09:56] <JackInTheGreen> buzzed pm
[09:56] <lupine_85> on binaries and videos, it's the only algorithm that gives a noticable decrease that I've found
[09:57] <lupine_85> and when you're uploading 10GB disc images... yeah :p
[09:57] <bruenig> lupine_85, but it takes soooo long to extract
[09:57] <square> is anyone using kubuntu?
[09:57] <kitche> lupine_85: well the best compression that I found is lzma but it's not widely used
[09:57] <reverseblade> square, I used it earlier
[09:57] <square> i used it for about amonth, but it crashed lol
[09:57] <WizCraker> whats a good snmp deamon to use?

[09:58] <matallo> what would u choose mythtv or freevo?
[09:59] <britton> If I use apt-get to install packages; how do I automatically install the required packages and the recommended packages as well?
[09:59] <britton> or does it already do it?
[09:59] <bruenig> britton, it will install the requires packages, the recommened packages it will not
[09:59] <WizCraker> reverseblade:   I was usieng net-snmp but couldn't get it to work nicely with cisco mibs.
[10:00] <jorge_> quien me recomienda un canal en amiga net
[10:00] <reverseblade> WizCraker, sorry no experience
[10:00] <bruenig> britton, if you want to install the recommended packages, just highlight them and copy and paste them after sudo apt-get install
[10:00] <[g2] > can I use a local desktop as a repository for .debs ?
[10:00] <britton> bruenig: that sounds like a good idea thanks
[10:01] <WizCraker> reverseblade: okay, well thanks anyways :)
[10:01] <bruenig> britton, but beware, the recommened packages have there own recommended packages, which then have their own recommended packages...

[10:02] <britton> yeah I have aptitude but I don't know how to use the interface
[10:03] <kitche> faLUCE: it's in edgy-backports might be in dapper-backports also
[10:04] <faLUCE> kitche: many thanks. which is the exact url of the repo?
[10:04] <zzzerotime> pike_,
[10:04] <zzzerotime> pike_, it was as simple as sudo rm -rf /etc/vmware/*
[10:04] <rpedro> [g2] : there is also apt-cacher and apt-mirror , never used them myself though.
[10:04] <zzzerotime> :)
[10:06] <xmoogle> when 6.06 is said to be "Long Term Support", what does that support mean exactly?

[10:45] <chronographer> converted them to deb using alien
[10:45] <bayle_> now try apt-get install realplayer or something similar...
[10:45] <chronographer> installed them by double clicking deb files and apt installs them
[10:46] <chronographer> now restarted CUPS
[10:46] <Rug> Hukt: unusual hardware perhaps.  I'd try a different Live CD (like knoppix) and see if you still have a problem (if you do, then is because of your hardware)
[10:46] <chronographer> try to add printer, cant see z65 drivers........
[10:46] <Hukt> no, ive tried knoppix. It works perfectly fine.
[10:46] <Shocka311> Hey, can someone tell me how to view media files I download off the web with ubuntu? they are all formated for winamp or win media player.
[10:46] <chronographer> anyone got advice to help me with my predicament?

[10:47] <Hukt> chronographer, try automatrix. It might have the drivers needed to detect your printer.
[10:47] <Rug> chronographer: Have you check with linuxprinting.org
[10:47] <chronographer> oh really?
[10:47] <Rug> Hukt: no
[10:47] <chronographer> i will just check automatix
[10:47] <Rug> Automatix only has ATi & Nvidia Drivers
[10:47] <neutrinomass> !automatix
[10:47] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[10:47] <Hukt> Oh.
[10:47] <Hukt> nvm.
[10:48] <Bepo> bayle_: Package realplayer is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[10:48] <Bepo> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[10:48] <Bepo> is only available from another source
[10:48] <Bepo> E: Package realplayer has no installation candidate
[10:48] <Hukt> Rug: Why does knoppix work fine, but no ubuntu?
[10:48] <mc44> !paste | Bepo

[10:48] <Hukt> not*
[10:48] <Bepo> sorry :?
[10:48] <mc44> Bepo: please dont paste to the channel
[10:48] <Shocka311> I'll try those pages. will they have links to download the right decoders and software?
[10:48] <Flannel> Shocka311: yeah, and instructions
[10:48] <Rug> Hukt: a glitch with the live CD perhaps
[10:48] <Jussi01> Nontitle:I tried that coping didnt work
[10:48] <Bepo> mc44: k wont do it again
[10:48] <mc44> Bepo: no problem
[10:49] <Nontitle> oh
[10:49] <bayle_> Bepo, i don't know why it happends, but the "secret" is to find a goog repo
[10:49] <Jussi01> Ive downloaded the bin file from sun - what do i do with it?
[10:49] <chronographer> yes automatix is crap!  no printer drivers.
[10:49] <h0ndaracer2> hello everyone
[10:49] <bayle_> look for it
[10:49] <Hukt> Rug: I even did the option to check the CD for errors or whatever, and it did it, and said the cd was fine.
[10:49] <Nontitle> i'm not sure what to do, then.
[10:49] <Nontitle> did you use sudo?
[10:49] <snook353> what software do i need to move 1gig via usb from a windows98 to ubuntu/kubuntu?
[10:49] <Rug> Hukt: the DISK was fine, but the software may still have bugs
[10:49] <kitche> Bepo: install helixplayer it's just realplayer pretty much should be in the repos realplayer si in multiverse since it's a commerical program
[10:49] <Shocka311> Is it gonna be in computer code or english? my problem is I don't know any of this computer language so I'm having a real hard time with ubuntu and finding anything I understand.
[10:49] <buchan> Anyone know of some xmms2 packages that work with 6.10?
[10:50] <ubuntuuser> ubuntu 6.06, how can i change the boot screen
[10:50] <Hukt> Rug: So how will I know what to do?
[10:50] <mc44> snook353: what do you mean via usb?
[10:50] <Rug> snook353: just copy it
[10:50] <fluvvell> I just did an update on my wifes laptop and the fonts on her desktop icons just increased a heap.  Anyone know where to edit the font size for desktop icons?
[10:50] <Flannel> snook353: just copy it onto the USB, and then copy it onto the computer
[10:50] <chronographer> lol flannel
[10:50] <mralphabet> !xmms
[10:50] <Nontitle> if you mean usb as a usb drive, then just copy it and install the drivers on windows 98

[10:50] <Rug> Hukt: just try installing it.   Some bugs with the LiveCD "disappear" at installation
[10:50] <chronographer> oops
[10:50] <bayle_> Bepo add this to your repos: deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu edgy-commercial main, it must run
[10:50] <Alfa|WERK> wrong channel chronographer
[10:51] <Nontitle> if you mean usb as a usb wireless adapter, i have no clue
[10:51] <Bepo> bayle_: ah thanks... after the repository addition i went to synaptic to do a refresh and it appeared! Thanks!!
[10:51] <Rug> chronographer: what?
[10:51] <chronographer> nvm just being silly
[10:51] <Alfa|WERK> haha
[10:51] <Alfa|WERK> figured
[10:51] <LjL> ahum
[10:51] <Hukt> Rug: well how do you install it without starting the CD on boot up? Can you install ubuntu from Windows?
[10:51] <mralphabet> buchan: sudo apt-get install xmms doesn't work?
[10:51] <Rug> Hukt: grab the alternate Install CD
[10:51] <Shocka311> Flannel:  Is it gonna be in computer code or english? my problem is I don't know any of this computer language so I'm having a real hard time with ubuntu and finding anything I understand
[10:51] <Bepo> bayle_: do you know if RealPlayer streams in firefox browser?
[10:52] <bayle_> anyway, if u understand a little italian u can read this: http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/EdgyTipsTricks
[10:52] <Hukt> Rug: ok.
[10:52] <bayle_> Bepo i don't know
[10:52] <bayle_> *it
[10:52] <francois> hey guys, my speed to my usb key sometimes drops to 500kb/s, anyone know why ? or how to fix it ?
[10:52] <Flannel> Hukt: you might try the alternate CD (boots you straight into an installer, no need for a liveCD).  However, you can indeed install from windows, see !install
[10:52] <Jussi01> so what do i do with the java . bin file i downloaded?
[10:52] <bayle_> Bepo i think it runs on FF, but try it...
[10:53] <Hukt> Flannel: Thanks!
[10:53] <buchan> mralphabet: Not for XMMS2, no.
[10:53] <Hukt> !install

[10:53] <remfarkas> hi, i want to compile a program, but i get an error, missing zlib, does someone have any idea how can i fix that?
[10:53] <bayle_> install it
[10:53] <mralphabet> remfarkas: sudo apt-get install zlib
[10:53] <francois> sudo apt-get install zlib
[10:54] <francois> hey guys, my speed to my usb key sometimes drops to 500kb/s, anyone know why ? or how to fix it ?

[10:55] <fluvvell> ok just to answer my own question, its a font setting in preferences->fonts
[10:55] <bayle_> default on firefox or at usual uses?
[10:55] <sutabi> Is it possible to Updrage from 6.06 to 6.10 with the internet only?
[10:55] <mralphabet> buchan: sorry, xmms2 isn't in repositories, perhaps in universe?
[10:55] <Bepo> firefox
[10:55] <lupine_85> sutabi: yes
[10:55] <buchan> Nein.
[10:55] <bayle_> ah Bepo, sorry for my english
[10:55] <Bepo> usual usage to i think
[10:55] <strabes> sutabi: yes
[10:55] <remfarkas> missing zlib package
[10:55] <francois> sutabi, yes, change all the repos list from dapper to edgy, and then do dist-upgrade
[10:55] <lupine_85> just s/dapper/edgy/ in /etc/apt/sources.list and sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[10:56] <Bepo> bayle_: nothign wrong with your english
[10:56] <lupine_85> then sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop (just to be safe) and reboot
[10:56] <bayle_> Bepo btw, try looking in firefox conf files
[10:56] <Shocka311> Anyone know anywhere I can go to learn what all this code and stuff means so I can understand and work ubuntu?  I like it alot better than windows so far cause I have alot more options but all the help sites talk about alot of code and lingo I don't understand.
[10:56] <Flannel> lupine_85 should all the desktop metapackage first.
[10:56] <remfarkas> mralphabet, apt-get cannot find zlib package
[10:57] <lupine_85> Flannel: before and after is best
[10:57] <francois> Shocka311: download the ebook linux for dummies, its really good for starters
[10:57] <paulc_> sutabi: yes, read the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[10:57] <lupine_85> and of course, ubuntu-desktop if you're running ubuntu rather than kubuntu :D
[10:57] <mralphabet> buchan: try gxmms2
[10:57] <Shocka311> where do I get that?
[10:57] <snook353> what software do i need to use a male/male usb cable and transfer data from a windows machine to a ubuntu/kubuntu machine?
[10:58] <Rug> snook353: won't work
[10:58] <paulc_> lupine_85, no do not edit your repositories, use the update-manager tool see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades

[10:58] <snook353> what works, rug?
[10:58] <lupine_85> snook353: didn't get get me in #kubuntu ?
[10:58] <francois> Shocka311: you can download the torrent at www.torrentspy.com
[10:58] <lupine_85> paulc_: it's not my fault the upgrade path is broken
[10:58] <Rug> snook353: use a network cross-over cable
[10:58] <snook353> i don't know what terms to search for to find info, rug.  ok
[10:58] <mralphabet> buchan: http://lwn.net/Articles/211343/ references gxmms2 as being sync'd in from debian
[10:58] <Rug> OOdles faster
[10:58] <buchan> mralphabet, well I need the development packages for xmms2. I tried the repos for dapper and debian unstable but they turned out to be a no go.
[10:58] <lupine_85> Rug: a USB male<->male adaptor works as a null modem cable
[10:58] <Shocka311> sweet, I'll try that, thanks
[10:58] <lupine_85> so you can do a ppp link over it with no problems
[10:59] <Rug> lupine_85: really?  shit sorry.  My mistake
[10:59] <lupine_85> np :)
[10:59] <bayle_> Bepo, i cannot help you, ask it to others...
[10:59] <lupine_85> 480Mbps is pretty fast, as well :p
[10:59] <mralphabet> buchan: that is probably not in repos at all ;(
[10:59] <francois> hey guys, my speed to my usb key sometimes drops to 500kb/s, anyone know why ? or how to fix it ?
[10:59] <lupine_85> (not that you actually get that!)
[10:59] <Bepo> bayle_: thanks though1
[11:00] <Bepo> hey guys how do I make realplayer my default video player... right now VLC is trying to play my videos
[11:00] <Bepo> in FF that is
[11:00] <reverseblade> francois, may be it is not usb 2.0
[11:00] <lupine_85> paulc_: so how would you recommend that a non-graphical install update to edgy?
[11:00] <mralphabet> buchan: xmms2 is not in repos at all that I can see, perhaps in feisty
[11:00] <reverseblade> Bepo, real player is for real player files only
[11:01] <Rug> lupine_85: remember rewiring printer cables to make them "laplink" just to network a couple of PCs'   Hell now you can make a null-modem out of anything!  =)
[11:01] <lupine_85> since ubuntu is supposedly also ideal for the server :p
[11:01] <lupine_85> Rug: yeah :)
[11:01] <lupine_85> happy memories
[11:01] <bayle_> lupine_85 non graphig mode is best to upgrade
[11:01] <buchan> mralphabet, unfortunately not. They have repos here but nothing for 6.10 http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/index.php/Download_XMMS2 Is there any way to create Edgy packages from the dapper ones? I'm not regularly a Ubuntu/Debian user, but its all I have access to over the holidays.
[11:01] <lupine_85> bayle_: yeah I know
[11:01] <lupine_85> buchan: apt-get source -b <package>
[11:01] <buchan> Sorry for not being familiar with how things work :)
[11:01] <paulc_> lupine_85: see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[11:01] <lupine_85> it usually works but not always
[11:01] <lupine_85> paulc_: I did
[11:01] <francois> reverseblade: its brand new, i can't see it being that, because sometimes it runs at 40megs a sec, and then slows down to 500kb/s
[11:01] <reverseblade> buchan, never let that happen again
[11:02] <reverseblade> buchan, :)
[11:02] <buchan> :P
[11:02] <reverseblade> francois, prolly a hardware issue
[11:02] <lupine_85> I'm just curious as to why that should be considered a bad way to upgrade a desktop but a good way to upgrade a server
[11:02] <lupine_85> given that servers are mission-critical but desktops are not...
[11:02] <mralphabet> buchan: sorry, I don't have an answer for you, it's not in repos, you may need to install it yourself
[11:02] <bayle_> francois 40 megs are a lot, sure of it?
[11:02] <Rug> lupine_85: in college I had a 30-foot parallel "laplink" cable that i strung between 2 rooms in my dorm, just so we could play some games & share modem access to local BBS's
[11:02] <reverseblade> lupine_85, linux is the world of workarounds
[11:02] <Bepo> reverseblade: oh i thought they could play WMV's too?
[11:03] <lupine_85> reverseblade: oh yes :)
[11:03] <MystaMax> Hello, I'm looking at a shell script and it has date +%m%d%Y in it, and I was wondering if this is a system variable? and what other variables are there??
[11:03] <lupine_85> Rug: back in my day we used wet string :p
[11:03] <reverseblade> Bepo, not sure. but what you want is pointless. VLC is just fine
[11:03] <mralphabet> MystaMax: man date
[11:03] <MystaMax> mralphabet, thx
[11:03] <francois> bayle_: it jumps all over the place, it goes really fast, and suddenly stalls, and then picks up again at 90megs, but i know its not going that fast, but thats what it says, so i'm weired out by it
[11:03] <reverseblade> MystaMax, echo $MY_VARIABLE
[11:03] <mzanfardino> question: what file should I modify if I want an application to load when my ubuntu server boots?  Currently I have a reference in my .bashrc, but this requires that I log in, and I need the server to launch my app at book (note: no desktop)
[11:04] <mralphabet> !initrd
[11:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about initrd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:04] <Hukt> ok, i can't find the install cd option to download
[11:04] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: /etc/rc.local
[11:04] <francois> MystaMax: there are many, such as your $USER and %HOME and %PATH
[11:04] <MystaMax> reverseblade, I tried that and it just returned to the CLI, with no output
[11:04] <Hukt> all i see is the cd to try out 6.10
[11:04] <Bepo> reverseblade: k well can you tell me why VLC doesnt show a navigation bar? so i can pause rewind and search through vids?
[11:04] <Rug> mzanfardino: many ways:  cron, Admin -> Startup
[11:04] <MystaMax> francois, yes thats what i wanted to know
[11:04] <MystaMax> francois, where can i find all these
[11:05] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: I modified this file, but there is refernce in the file that states you need to enable execution, and I don't know where I might do this.
[11:05] <francois> MystaMax: you can set your own variables too, you know,
[11:05] <reverseblade> MystaMax, then that is not a pre-defined env-var
[11:05] <francois> MystaMax: gimme a sec, i'll see if i can find it for you
[11:05] <reverseblade> Bepo, dunno I use, totem, mplayer and gxine
[11:05] <kitche> Hukt: what are you trying to do?
[11:05] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
[11:05] <mzanfardino> # bits.
[11:05] <MystaMax> francois, thanks.
[11:05] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: that's from rc.local
[11:05] <green_earz> mzanfardino: the script needs to be in /etc/init.d   check out > http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/28
[11:06] <Bepo> reverseblade: can gxine play wmvs?
[11:06] <Rug> mzanfardino: sudo chmod +x file

[11:06] <mralphabet> MystaMax: http://www.seren.net/documentation/unix%20utilities/Linux_Cheat_Sheet.htm
[11:07] <Hukt> Kitche: I'm trying to try ubuntu from the cd, but it isnt detecting my keyboard/mouse when it loads up.
[11:07] <Hukt> So some of the others suggest I get the install CD
[11:07] <Hukt> but i cant find where to download that.
[11:07] <mzanfardino> Rug: ls -l shows /etc/rc.local is +r (-rwxr-xr-x actually)
[11:07] <lupine_85> !alternate
[11:07] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[11:07] <Bepo> reverseblade: ah and... sorry but how do i do that :?
[11:07] <reverseblade> Hukt, ubuntu.com
[11:07] <kitche> Hukt: the desktop-cd is the install cd
[11:07] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: then it's enabled

[11:08] <remfarkas> i have these, still not good

[11:08] <Shocka311> Hey, I couldn't find that link that francois gave me and he left, Can anyone tell me where I can go to learn all this computer code and lingo that I need to understand Linux software and Ubuntu?
[11:08] <kitche> Hukt: you want the alternate for that
[11:08] <lupine_85> ^ Hukt: that's the alternate CD ^
[11:09] <lupine_85> live cd--
[11:09] <remfarkas> i'm tryin to compile a program but this doof zlib is missing
[11:09] <reverseblade> Shocka311, that's a 100 000 pages encyclopedia where do you want to start ?
[11:09] <lupine_85> reverseblade: and the rest...
[11:09] <kitche> Shocka311: oreilly has an excantly basic command page or ubotu has a link to basic commands also
[11:09] <reverseblade> remfarkas, try zlib-dev
[11:10] <reverseblade> remfarkas, compilation always requires dev packages , dont forget
[11:10] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: as in #!/bin/sh (first line)?  Or something else?
[11:10] <remfarkas> kk, i'll try to remember!! thx :)
[11:10] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: that's the one#
[11:10] <Shocka311> Will this teach a dummy what all this code stuff means?
[11:10] <CarlFK> join #ubuntu-bugs
[11:10] <iCod> how would I go about uninstalling flash 9 and installing 7?
[11:11] <reverseblade> Shocka311, what specifically want to learn about ?
[11:11] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: I've added two lines that look like this:
[11:11] <Valmarko> Shocka311, phazeddl.com. type ubuntu and you will find at least two great books
[11:11] <kitche> Shocka311: what kind of code since code means knowing a programming language
[11:11] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: ". /opt/fgs/fgs start"
[11:11] <reverseblade> iCod, how did you installed flash 9
[11:11] <CarlFK> join #ubuntu-bug

[11:11] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: not sure.  was in my .bashrc that way
[11:12] <lupine_85> adding the . makes it a relative path rather than an absolute path
[11:12] <lupine_85> usually you don't want that
[11:12] <Juhaz> y
[11:12] <iCod> reverseblade, downloaded flash, and coppied .so

[11:12] <kalikiana> Does anyone know where to find two-way dictionaries as text files?
[11:12] <reverseblade> iCod, ok, now download flash 7 and copy it again, overrite the existing file and restart firefox
[11:13] <Shocka311> Well, I'm new to linux systems and ubuntu and whenever I go to the help sites or try to find information it uses a bunch of computer talk and words that I don't understant so I want to learn what it is talking about so I can learn to use ubuntu
[11:13] <iCod> reverseblade, ok, I fell stupid...
[11:14] <HentaiSushi> how do i get WINE
[11:14] <kitche> Shocka311: you can get a general linux book for that
[11:14] <zspada15> !wine | HentaiSushi
[11:14] <ubotu> HentaiSushi: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:14] <animefanatic> umm does ubuntu support ext3 file system, cause i get an error when i use that
[11:14] <Condiment> Hi
[11:14] <tannerld> can anyone help me with gobby?
[11:14] <reverseblade> Shocka311, the way to learn is step by step. Note that everyone was beginner. First you should have a problem. While seeking solution for your problem, you hear things , some you understand some you dont. Thats how you begin learning linux.
[11:14] <zspada15> animefanatic, yes it does, whats the error?
[11:14] <Shocka311> where can I get that?
[11:14] <voidmage> Can anyone in here help me with lirc?
[11:14] <Condiment> ok
[11:14] <animefanatic> well when I try to install it on that file system it doesn't let me
[11:15] <francois> how would i go about reformating my usb key ?
[11:15] <animefanatic> i can get the exact error if you want
[11:15] <zspada15> animefanatic, what is the error?
[11:15] <lupine_85> francois: mkfs
[11:15] <zspada15> animefanatic, yes please
[11:15] <Shocka311> thats what i'm doin so far but many times I don't understand the answeres to my questions.
[11:15] <animefanatic> hang on  a sec
[11:15] <alex-weej> does anyone know how to get EDID info from a monitor
[11:15] <alex-weej> ?
[11:15] <francois> lupine_85: simply mkfs /media/usbdisk/ ?
[11:15] <lupine_85>  /probably/ mkfs.vfat /dev/<device-file-of-usb-key>
[11:15] <MystaMax> thanks mralphabet
[11:15] <Shocka311> I'm used to windows and its alot easier but I like ubuntu better so far
[11:15] <reverseblade> Shocka311, then ask about the specif parts that you didn't understand again. You WILL get an answer
[11:15] <lupine_85> francois: you need to specify the filesyssyem type and the /device/ file
[11:15] <Shocka311> I just don't understand it
[11:16] <lupine_85> you should also make sure it's not mounted while you do so
[11:16] <kitche> Shocka311: you sorta have to learn the shell then you will understand Linux a lot more
[11:16] <reverseblade> Shocka311, you have to know what exactly you do dont understand
[11:16] <mralphabet> !lirc | voidmage
[11:16] <ubotu> lirc: Linux Infra-red Remote Control support. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.8.0-5ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 308 kB, installed size 1544 kB
[11:16] <reverseblade> dont
[11:16] <Shocka311> Whats the shell and how do I learn it?
[11:16] <lupine_85> note that mkfs doesn't do a secure wipe, either - so recovery is trivial. Use shred or wipe for secure cleaning
[11:16] <mralphabet> voidmage: heh, that wasn't a lot of info
[11:16] <voidmage> yeah
[11:16] <reverseblade> Shocka311, shell is the terminal console, that you type things
[11:16] <cafuego_> Shocka311: open a terminal, type 'ls' and hit return. Hurray, you've done shell.
[11:16] <kitche> Shocka311: you know when you ctrl+alt+f1 that is the shell that black screen that says login
[11:16] <akant2> anyone here know anything about software raid in linux?
[11:17] <HentaiSushi> how do i add a repository?
[11:17] <reverseblade> HentaiSushi, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:17] <Shocka311> How do I open a terminal?
[11:17] <lupine_85> reverseblade: gksudo... :)
[11:17] <lupine_85> or gksu
[11:17] <lupine_85> Shocka311: run gnome-terminal, konsole or xterm
[11:18] <jmcsteve> HI all, I have a question regarding Ubuntu hardware recognition:
[11:18] <Shocka311> And how do I learn to use the shell?
[11:18] <reverseblade> Shocka311, press ALT+F2 then type gnome-terminal <enter>
[11:18] <lupine_85> learning to use... either get a book or "just play"
[11:18] <drach> Shocka311: try find something here: http://www.tldp.org/guides.html
[11:18] <bimberi> !cli
[11:18] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[11:18] <francois> lupine_85: what file system are usb keys ?
[11:18] <lupine_85> note that the latter will probably result in your trashing your install at least a few times :p
[11:18] <jmcsteve> If I install ubuntu on a PC and then move this HDD to another PC, will ubuntu reconfigure the new hardware based on the current PC?
[11:18] <francois> lupine_85: i can't find it
[11:18] <mc44> francois: fat usually
[11:18] <reverseblade> Shocka311, that question is very general. You should ask specific questions about shell. E.g   "how do I run a program from shell"
[11:18] <msubu> HentaiSushi: graphically you can go to System>Administration>Synaptic.    Click Settings>Repositories>Third Party then add the deb http:... lines
[11:18] <lupine_85> francois: it depends. Usually vfat to start with
[11:19] <drach> francois: fat16, fat32
[11:19] <zylche> c.run; run.c; run.c
[11:19] <Shocka311> ok how do I run a program from shell?
[11:19] <reverseblade> Shocka311, you have to digest, first, why do we need shell
[11:19] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: I've tested things a few different ways, and I can say conclusively that adding "/opt/fgs/setenv.sh" followed by "fgs start" in rc.local do not get executed at startup.
[11:19] <Syco54645> can someone please provide me a link with info on how to get gnome to edit remote files via gnome-vfs
[11:19] <reverseblade> Shocka311, you just type the name of the program that you want to run
[11:19] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: are the scripts in question executable ?
[11:19] <stephan21> how do i put fluxbox in the init
[11:19] <Shocka311> This is the kind of stuff i'm trying to learn
[11:19] <Syco54645> gedit rather, not gnome
[11:19] <reverseblade> Shocka311, e.g type "ls" (without quotes).
[11:20] <lupine_85> Shocka311: the most useful feature of the shell - by far - is tab completion. start typing a command and press the tab key
[11:20] <Shocka311> K i have the terminal window open
[11:20] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: not sure how to answer that.  I can add those two lines to my .bashrc and they execute when I log in.
[11:20] <jmcsteve> If I install ubuntu on a PC and then move this HDD to another PC, will ubuntu reconfigure the new hardware based on the current PC?
[11:20] <lupine_85> it'll show you all the commands that /might/ be what you're looking for
[11:20] <ir2> ok, i have a question, i have a fedora core 6 install running on an old computer, that is basically just a NAS system, but the YUM installation broke, and i want to switch over to Ubuntu Server (stable debian, with quick lamp)
[11:20] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: are they +x ?
[11:20] <reverseblade> Shocka311, type something and see what happens
[11:20] <lupine_85> reverseblade: lol
[11:20] <lupine_85> careful.... :p
[11:20] <reverseblade> lupine_85, yeah but you know :)
[11:20] <scribebox> anyway, how would i go about moving my LINUX SOFTWARE RAID over to the debian install?
[11:21] <tannerld> can anyone help me with gobby? I have a Howl warning. :\
[11:21] <drach> jmcsteve: imho usually yes
[11:21] <kitche> jmcsteve: it won't reconfigure since it doesn't have to it's not like windows the kernel in ubuntu is set up to run on any hardware that the kernel supports
[11:21] <Corbeaux> suppose he types something like rm -rf *
[11:21] <Corbeaux> ?
[11:21] <scribebox> the two Raid drives are mouned in /storage..
[11:21] <lupine_85> Shocka311: there's also #bash (or ##bash)
[11:21] <Shocka311> Ls gave me some examples but I typed "ubuntu and it said command not found
[11:21] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: yes
[11:21] <buchan> Is it possible to get python2.3 installed on Edgy?
[11:21] <stephan21> how do i put fluxbox in the init
[11:21] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: weird. Works here.
[11:21] <pos69sum> hey
[11:21] <reverseblade> Shocka311, yes because there is not such a command or program called ubuntu
[11:21] <stephan21> anyone know how i can add fluxbox to the gdm startup
[11:22] <lupine_85> greetings, citrus fruit :p
[11:22] <Shocka311> so this window is to run programs ect?
[11:22] <pos69sum> i just installed dapper - my fonts in the terminal are all flickery - anyone seen this?
[11:22] <Shocka311> what els can I do from here
[11:22] <lupine_85> stephan21: it should be in the sessions tab
[11:22] <lupine_85> if not, look in /usr/share/xsessions and add it
[11:22] <scribebox> gah
[11:22] <scribebox> anyone wanna help me :)?
[11:22] <lupine_85> Shocka311: you can do "everything".
[11:22] <reverseblade> Shocka311, yes that is one way of it. We usually use console when we need extra power. This is the main difference between windows and linux. Linux console is powerful and complex
[11:22] <stephan21> lupine_85, i compiled the package myself and it didnt put it in there
[11:23] <lupine_85> stephan21: then you'lll have to write your own
[11:23] <francois> lupine_85: i cant seem to do this : mkfs -t vfat /media/usbdisk/ it says it cannot open the media
[11:23] <animefanatic> Alright here is my exact error when i  try to install ubuntu on a ext3 partition: The ext3 file system creation in partition #2 of SCSI5 (0,0,0) (sdc) failed.
[11:23] <lupine_85> look at your current xsession .desktop fies for examples
[11:23] <reverseblade> Shocka311, usually, you dont use console for general stuff. But if you cant to it with mouse, then console is your friend
[11:23] <lupine_85> francois: you need to specify the /device file/
[11:23] <lupine_85> in /dev somewhere
[11:23] <Shocka311> so if I download a program, for example "wine emulator" i can access this terminal and run it from here?
[11:23] <francois> ah
[11:23] <lupine_85> make SURE you've got the right one
[11:23] <kcinna> hey all
[11:23] <Corbeaux> Shocka311, console is like DOS on lots of steroids
[11:23] <lupine_85> and unmount the usb stick before you start :p
[11:23] <reverseblade> Shocka311, absolutely yes
[11:24] <jmcsteve> so it's perfectly possible to install Ubuntu on a HDD, make a Disk Image and MBR image and then dump that image on other PC's HDD and everything will just work?
[11:24] <kcinna> im having trouble playing flac filed in amarok, has anyone else had this problem before?
[11:24] <stephan21> where
[11:24] <lupine_85> jmcsteve: dd is your friend
[11:24] <kcinna> i searched around in the forums but couldnt find anything to fix it
[11:24] <jmcsteve> yes I know dd
[11:24] <Shocka311> That helps a ton. everyon ehas been telling me about terminal but I could never get a clear answer on how to open it.
[11:24] <lupine_85> it'll usually work, unless you do something daft like dd the image onto a too-small HD...
[11:24] <reverseblade> jmcsteve, I am your friend also :)
[11:24] <Corbeaux> scary...
[11:24] <Corbeaux> lol
[11:25] <kitche> Shocka311: I know the shell can be scary but once you learn it you will know alot for example my whole system has no X on it since I can do everything from the shell
[11:25] <scribebox> hi, i need help moving a linux software raid0 over to new distribtion
[11:25] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: maybe seeing my rc.local would help: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38287/
[11:25] <reverseblade> Shocka311, heh, this is because you havent asked it before :)
[11:25] <zzzerotime> is there any spanish speaking channel?
[11:25] <scribebox> would i be able to copy just the relevant FSTAB ?
[11:25] <Flannel> !es | zzzerotime
[11:25] <ubotu> zzzerotime: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[11:25] <Shocka311> ;)
[11:25] <jmcsteve> a 512 mbr image will fit any disk, i think...
[11:25] <wildchild> what's the other command for dpkg
[11:25] <Shocka311> what is an X
[11:25] <stephan21> lupine_85, where r they at
[11:25] <animefanatic> Can anyone help me with this error, I get it whenever i try to install ubuntu on an ext3 partition:
[11:25] <Shocka311> is that a platform like ubuntu?
[11:25] <mzanfardino> !init.d
[11:25] <animefanatic> The ext3 file system creation in partition #2 of SCSI5 (0,0,0) (sdc) failed.
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about init.d - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <Shocka311> or windows?
[11:26] <Flannel> Shocka311: X (X.org) is the basis of the graphical interface.  Gnome/KDE/etc all run "ontop" of X
[11:26] <kitche> Shocka311: X=xorg the server that lets you havce graphic interface(gnome,kde,xfce)
[11:26] <Corbeaux> X is a graphical user interface
[11:26] <reverseblade> Shocka311, I am sure there are better definitions. X is just the sub system that allows to use your mouse and draws that windows etc
[11:26] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: try the updated version (hit refresh)
[11:26] <reverseblade> Shocka311, it is the counter part of terminal
[11:26] <kitche> reverseblade: I can use a mouse in shell
[11:26] <hjmills> how can i tell the installer what my cpu is from the command line?
[11:26] <reverseblade> kitche, I know I know
[11:27] <reverseblade> hjmills, what installer ?
[11:27] <hjmills> reverseblade: the ubuntu installer - its giving problems and i think it may be autodetecting my cpu wrongly
[11:27] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: I hit refresh but don't see any difference...
[11:27] <animefanatic> <-- is actually locked out of both his XP OS and Linux OS, using a live cd right now, so if any one could help me get back to windows i would appreciate that also
[11:27] <reverseblade> hjmills, what kind of problems, at what stage ?
[11:27] <lupine_85> 14. sh /opt/fgs/setenv.sh \n 15. /opt/fgs/fgs start
[11:28] <Flannel> animefanatic: what does "locked out" mean?
[11:28] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: ^ those two lines changed ^
[11:28] <animefanatic> meaning my boot manger is screwed up cause of grub
[11:28] <mzanfardino> animefanatic: what happens when you try to boot?
[11:28] <lupine_85> assuming that the command fgs is in /opt/fgs, of course
[11:28] <Shocka311> Ah that makes sense.  This is all the stuff I'm trying to learn.  so will on of these links you gave me earlier explaine alot of this stuff? or where can I go to just read and learn about all these basic functions and definitions so I don't have to have you explain the whole system to me step by step?
[11:28] <Flannel> animefanatic: just reinstall grub, that'll fix it.
[11:28] <animefanatic> grub gives me error 22
[11:28] <Corbeaux> animefanatic, try here: http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/
[11:28] <animefanatic> well i don't exactly have a working version of linux right now
[11:28] <hjmills> reverseblade: it restarts when i try to install when loading the kernel
[11:28] <Flannel> animefanatic: did you delete your linux partition?
[11:28] <animefanatic> so can i still install grub
[11:28] <Flannel> animefanatic: you can use the liveCD to reinstall grub
[11:29] <kitche> Shocka311: get Linux in a nutshell it's an excellent book to learn the basic Linux system
[11:29] <reverseblade> Shocka311, help.ubuntu.com
[11:29] <animefanatic> i stil have the linux partition, but ubuntu won't install currectly
[11:29] <reverseblade> hjmills, could you boot in live CD?
[11:29] <hjmills> reverseblade: and with an edgy cd it gave an "Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP <blah> <blah> <blah>"
[11:29] <Shocka311> where do I get linux in a nutshell again?
[11:29] <lupine_85> Amazon :p
[11:30] <Orestes^> before upgrading my ubuntu version, I used to have a fancy popup notification window when I used the shortcut keys for volume control with kmix... I don't have them any more... Does anybody have any clue about where they have been lost?
[11:30] <animefanatic> i have multiple HDs will that affect the grub installation at all
[11:30] <reverseblade> Shocka311, buy a book from amazon.com
[11:30] <kitche> Shocka311: from any book store that is big, it's done by oreilly which makes many books baout open source
[11:30] <eLCANGRY> HELLO
[11:30] <drach> Shocka311:  you can find also some guides here: http://www.tldp.org/guides.html
[11:30] <hjmills> reverseblade: no - i tried the livecd / installer for dapper and it restarted
[11:30] <HentaiSushi> i installed wine using synaptic, but i dont see the .wine directory
[11:30] <Flannel> animefanatic: that shouldn't matter.  You'll install grub to the boot record of your first harddrive
[11:30] <mc44> !caps | eLCANGRY
[11:30] <ubotu> eLCANGRY: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:30] <reverseblade> hjmills, what processor do you have ?
[11:30] <kitche> HentaiSushi: you have to run wine first
[11:30] <HentaiSushi> how kitche
[11:31] <Flannel> !grub | animefanatic, first link, instructions on reinstalling grub from your liveCD
[11:31] <ubotu> animefanatic, first link, instructions on reinstalling grub from your liveCD: 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
[11:31] <hjmills> HentaiSushi: I think its created when u run wine
[11:31] <kitche> HentaiSushi: open up a terminal and type wine or winecfg
[11:31] <HentaiSushi> thanks guys
[11:31] <reverseblade> lol
[11:31] <hjmills> reverseblade: its a p4 2.8GHz
[11:31] <reverseblade> lots of wine expertees around :)
[11:31] <Corbeaux> expertise?
[11:31] <hjmills> reverseblade: i set it up about half an hour ago...
[11:31] <reverseblade> hjmills, single processor
[11:31] <reverseblade> expertees
[11:32] <Corbeaux> ok
[11:32] <hjmills> reverseblade: yup - before the dual core age
[11:32] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: I made the changes (added the sh before /opt/fgs/setenv.sh and the path /opt/fgs/ in front of fgs start) but still no indication they executed.  Do I need to do something with update-rc.d?
[11:32] <Shocka311> cool. one last thing, for now... on this terminal window do I have to type very specific comands or is there some way I can type a genral comand?  I don't know the specific file names of much so I don't know what comands to type.
[11:32] <reverseblade> hjmills, tough luck :) what cd do you use 386 ?
[11:32] <lupine_85> mzanfardino: shouldn't need to
[11:32] <lupine_85> you could try using cron instead, I guess :s
[11:32] <hjmills> reverseblade: yup
[11:33] <lupine_85> or you could link them into your default runlevel
[11:33] <lupine_85> (/etc/rc2.d)
[11:33] <FifaFrazer> Which Samba client with GUI would you recommend? I use XFCE.. I would like something like thunar, I'm too slow at the command line ;)
[11:33] <mzanfardino> lupine_85: bah... then I'm an idiot.  I can't seem to get this bloody thing to work... I'm going to try something else, just to see if the file is even being executed...
[11:33] <lupine_85> lots of different ways to do it - rc.local is the easiest, usually
[11:33] <reverseblade> Shocka311, you get help on a command by man <command>. Do not use terminal till you needed. You have your mouse after all
[11:33] <reverseblade> Shocka311, thats only a beginners advice though
[11:33] <Shocka311> great thanks.
[11:34] <lupine_85> terminal > GUI :p
[11:34] <Corbeaux> Shocka311, here's a nice link with commands and their function: http://www.oreillynet.com/linux/cmd/
[11:34] <LinTux> I am trying to share a printer with the XP machine, is it easier to share it on the xp machine or the Ubuntu machine?
[11:34] <lupine_85> well, except for image editing
[11:34] <reverseblade> hjmills, strange, I have never heard such a thing. Does your computer boots with another OS ?
[11:34] <Shocka311> awesome
[11:35] <hjmills> reverseblade: i only have windows to try and it booted as far as the press r to repair or enter to install screen
[11:35] <reverseblade> LinTux, prolly same, I tried when printer is on XP, it was fairly easy thoughj
[11:35] <hjmills> reverseblade: (first user input screen)
[11:35] <bitmvnch> lupine_85: you jest ;)
[11:35] <lupine_85> I do :(
[11:35] <kitche> Corbeaux: ah that's the link I was looking for to give to Shocka311
[11:35] <reverseblade> hjmills, ok, try with noapic boot option
[11:35] <lupine_85> although with a decent framebuffer there's no reason why not...
[11:35] <Corbeaux> :)
[11:35] <scribeLAP> hi
[11:35] <LinTux> I have just install fresh, what else do i need to install to enable me to do this
[11:35] <lupine_85> noapic acpi=off noresume
[11:35] <FifaFrazer> lupine_85, I know you would say so, but to me its faster to click some icons than to look up in some book for the right commands :P
[11:35] <scribeLAP> anyone have any ideas how i would go about moving a fc6 raid0 to an ubuntu server?
[11:36] <reverseblade> irqpoll, nosmp
[11:36] <scribeLAP> :(?
[11:36] <lupine_85> FifaFrazer: indeed. But when the command is in your memory, and GUI equivalent takes 5-50x longer to load, it's a no-brainer
[11:36] <reverseblade> scribeLAP, ubuntu is a noobie distro :)
[11:36] <CarlFK> in ~/.bash_profile is PATH=~/bin:"${PATH}" but it doesn't seem to get set... anyone know why?
[11:37] <Corbeaux> reverseblade which distro is your preference?
[11:37] <reverseblade> CarlFK, it should be export
[11:37] <scribeLAP> reverseblade, ... i use ubuntu fc6, and debian.
[11:37] <reverseblade> Corbeaux, being a noobie distro is not a bad thing after all.
[11:37] <lupine_85> ubuntu > fc6
[11:37] <lupine_85> Windows 1.0 > fc6 :p
[11:37] <scribeLAP> i just like the fact that ubuntu usually gets everything configured and working easier/faster then all the other distros i tried.
[11:37] <CarlFK> reverseblade: are you sure?  PATH already exists,
[11:38] <scribeLAP> im really dissapionted in my FC6 install..
[11:38] <Corbeaux> the only thing i didn't like about ubuntu for the couple days i had it installed many moons ago was that it lacked a full screen text mode
[11:38] <scribeLAP> the YUM installer broke..
[11:38] <lupine_85> Corbeaux: ctrl+alt+f1
[11:38] <konam> there's someone of the blubuntu artwork team here?
[11:38] <Corbeaux> neh, it just went back into the gui
[11:38] <reverseblade> scribeLAP, not true. the biggest + of ubuntu is it has a large active community
[11:38] <hjmills> reverseblade: same problem :(
[11:38] <CarlFK> reverseblade: not to mention it didnt work :)
[11:38] <reverseblade> hjmills, sorry , no other ideas
[11:38] <lupine_85> Corbeaux: doesn't here
[11:38] <Corbeaux> :)
[11:39] <lupine_85> sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop
[11:39] <lupine_85> problem solved
[11:39] <Corbeaux> also tried ctrl+alt+backspace and it killed X but then it just restarted a couple seconds later
[11:39] <reverseblade> CarlFK, AFAIK, you set the env vars by: export MY_VAR=....
[11:40] <lupine_85> ^ Corbeaux ^ that /will/ work
[11:40] <Corbeaux> ya
[11:41] <scribeLAP> sooooo
[11:41] <scribeLAP> no one knows if i can transfer my RAID0 :)?
[11:41] <DJGummikuh> hey there... how do I play realmedia files "teh ubuntu way"?
[11:41] <scribeLAP> cause its 500GB of shite. :D
[11:41] <scribeLAP> movies / mp3's / pr0n..
[11:41] <scribeLAP> battlestar.
[11:41] <reverseblade> scribeLAP, you may try #linux, #raid (if exists)
[11:41] <DJGummikuh> scribeLAP: nobody really cares what illegal stuff you have on your system
[11:41] <x-r00t-x> how do i quit from "vi" on terminal?
[11:42] <scribeLAP> I care.. its alot of shit..
[11:42] <DJGummikuh> esc - ":" "q!" <enter>
[11:42] <Corbeaux> esc:q!
[11:42] <mc44> !ohmy | scribeLAP
[11:42] <ubotu> scribeLAP: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:42] <hjmills> reverseblade: i think its the mobo as somebody else reported the same problem on the forums with a "Compaq Presario Pentium 4 2.8GHz" which is where this board originally came from... :( looks like I am out of luck
[11:42] <DJGummikuh> mc44: thanx :)
[11:42] <reverseblade> hjmills, try a different distro before going for windows
[11:42] <DJGummikuh> hey can someone here tell me how to view .rv files the ubuntu way?
[11:42] <x-r00t-x> mc44, how do i exit from vim? vi
[11:43] <DJGummikuh> synaptics neither has mplayer nor vlc with realplay support NOR realplayer itself in it
[11:43] <DJGummikuh> x-r00t-x: we just told you!
[11:43] <reverseblade> x-r00t-x, same as vi
[11:43] <DJGummikuh> esc:q!
[11:43] <hjmills> reverseblade: I already tried gentoo out of desperation but I will try fedora core 6 once i have the iso downloaded.............
[11:43] <scribeLAP> what are some good games to install on a xUbuntu laptop
[11:43] <DJGummikuh> hjmills: stay with gentoo ^^
[11:43] <scribeLAP> (very old.. 600mhz)
[11:43] <reverseblade> hjmills, thats strange, really
[11:43] <schisms> DJGummikuh, did you add the software sources first?
[11:43] <wahl> plz help me, my quake3 won't work trough wine:S well it works but it's all white and stuff:S how do i fix it? plz help
[11:43] <mc44> x-r00t-x: :quit
[11:43] <DanglyBits> is there some what to get ubuntu gnome to act like mac osX (I like the kicker that expands the icons on the bottom of mas osX)?
[11:43] <DJGummikuh> schisms: which sources?
[11:43] <Aodh> howdy, quick question, how does one start configuration tools from the command line? Like the printer for example?
[11:44] <reverseblade> scribeLAP, I like freecol
[11:44] <schisms> system>admin>software sources
[11:44] <DJGummikuh> you mean the sources repositories? excuse me I'm gentoo user I just need to find a way to let my sister see stuff
[11:44] <schisms> Check all of the boxes.
[11:44] <schisms> Correct
[11:44] <DJGummikuh> schisms: yeah I made that already
[11:44] <reverseblade> DanglyBits, google it, I know there is
[11:44] <hjmills> DJGummikuh: no - its too complicated for my sister and too slow for me :( also it wont boot
[11:44] <schisms> It should have something relating.
[11:44] <schisms> I'd use gxine
[11:44] <DJGummikuh> schisms: except the Source code stuff..
[11:44] <bitmvnch> d'oh wrong chan
[11:44] <bitmvnch> heh
[11:44] <DJGummikuh> schisms: for realplayer?
[11:44] <DJGummikuh> schisms: err realmedia?
[11:44] <schisms> Doubt it
[11:45] <schisms> Wait.
[11:45] <FifaFrazer> wahl, afaik there's a free linux port of quake3, where you just copy your .pk3 file to the free version and, you're good to go
[11:45] <schisms> I mean, gxine is better than mplayer
[11:45] <schisms> A lot better.
[11:45] <masura> i prefer vlc
[11:45] <vertigo> hey people. im trying to get a linksys wpc54g ver 3 working on ubuntu 6.10, but without luck
[11:45] <reverseblade> schisms, but real men use mplayer
[11:45] <macogw> i like vlc too
[11:45] <msubu> you need all of them
[11:45] <DJGummikuh> schisms: I prefere mplayer because you can do like anything with it...
[11:45] <macogw> except i can only get .wmv to play on totem with xine backend
[11:45] <Aodh> mplayer, watching a movie from the command line. :)
[11:45] <wahl> fifafrazer : so i shal copy...
[11:45] <DJGummikuh> am I blind or is mplayer not in ubuntu's repositories?
[11:45] <vertigo> any of you tried getting this card working before?
[11:46] <DJGummikuh> Aodh: yep waht's wrong with it? :)
[11:46] <reverseblade> DJGummikuh, you are blind
[11:46] <schisms> Mplayer's always given me trouble.
[11:46] <mc44> !info mplayer
[11:46] <ubotu> mplayer: The Ultimate Movie Player For Linux. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2:0.99+1.0pre8-0ubuntu8 (edgy), package size 3461 kB, installed size 8624 kB
[11:46] <DJGummikuh> reverseblade: what do I have to look for? I let synaptics search for "mplayer" and it returned 0 results
[11:46] <mc44> DJGummikuh: its in multiverse
[11:46] <reverseblade> schisms, yes this is why I told "real men"
[11:46] <DJGummikuh> mc44: how do I search in multiverse
[11:46] <reverseblade> DJGummikuh, I was just offending you :)
[11:46] <mc44> DJGummikuh: you have to enable the additional repositores
[11:47] <msubu> Dj .. add the extra repositories
[11:47] <schisms> I think he's done do
[11:47] <mc44> !repositories | DJGummikuh
[11:47] <ubotu> DJGummikuh: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:47] <schisms> *so
[11:47] <Aodh> to use mplayer you you probably ought to install the win32 codecs.
[11:47] <Aodh> does ubuntu have those?
[11:47] <MitchM> Has anyone tried installing ubuntu on a Dell PowerEdge 1655MC or know of a plaace to point me to where I can find relative information?
[11:47] <wahl> fifafrazer : what u meen "free" ?
[11:47] <reptile> greetings
[11:47] <schisms> What's the problem Mitch<
[11:47] <schisms> *mitchm

[11:48] <reverseblade> MitchM, is it a laptop?
[11:48] <BSDnux> does anyone know of a ATRAC player for linux? that's the codec sony uses for their music players.
[11:48] <bimberi> wow, a poweredge laptop ;P
[11:48] <MitchM> reverseblade, No fool. you ar eof no help.
[11:48] <msubu> Dj.. do you have main universe  multiverse and restricted?
[11:48] <MitchM> you are*
[11:49] <reverseblade> MitchM, if it is not a laptop, I think you should search it piece by piece
[11:49] <DJGummikuh> mc44: I found the multiverse entry
[11:49] <MitchM> reverseblade, Why dont _you_ google what  poweredge 1655MC is.
[11:49] <sntx_> hi all

[11:50] <DJGummikuh> mc44: only question is: is it able to play realmedia
[11:50] <FifaFrazer> wahl,  I've found a danish guide to install Q3A on linux.. :P
[11:50] <cmweb> Ha, saw it on Dell

[11:50] <mc44> DJGummikuh: proably
[11:50] <MitchM> reverseblade, It is _my_ problem which is why i'm asking for help. and if the retorative "JFGI" is what I wanted; I would _call_ Dell tech support.

[11:52] <mc44> DJGummikuh: not sure why that is. You can install the real realplayer following the instructions here...
[11:52] <mc44> !real | DJGummikuh

[11:54] <MitchM> cmweb, You poor fella. Having to use windows.
[11:54] <LinTux>  when I go into the Gimp and start a new image, I get a painty looking mouse trail, how can I get rid of it?
[11:54] <adaminla> Does a HP 2360 printer work well with Ubuntu?
[11:54] <cmweb> mitchM, yeah im thionking about dumping the windows and doing a ubuntu but i need to see how it does with windows first
[11:55] <masura> adaminla, hp printers commonly work pretty well on ubuntu
[11:55] <FifaFrazer> wahl, it tells you to download the newest point release of q3a.. Start the installer.. Copy all the .pk3 files from your Q3A cd to your baseq3 dir. Start the game from terminal with 'quake3'
[11:55] <Lone> mnoir: I want to delete Ubuntu and re-install Windows... my mother got mad at me for trying to spread the 'religion'. :P
[11:55] <ubuntuuser> how can i replace my gnome splash screen?
[11:55] <masura> like generally
[11:55] <wahl> the newest pointrelease is not avalible:S
[11:55] <kane77> is there a command to grab a screen??
[11:55] <DanglyBits> is firefox 2.0.0.1 available for edgy?
[11:56] <LinTux> I just dumped MS Windoes, best thing I ever did, it is Ubuntu for me now!
[11:56] <mc44> DanglyBits: not ye
[11:56] <mc44> DanglyBits: not yet
[11:56] <masura> that was the right thing to do, LinTux
[11:56] <DanglyBits> how stable is feisty fawn?
[11:56] <reverseblade> LinTux, you fool
[11:56] <mc44> DanglyBits: not at all, its alpha
[11:56] <Corbeaux> lol
[11:56] <Aodh> masura, do you know how to fix ppd config error on ubuntu?
[11:57] <LinTux> I refuse to finance mr gates anymore.
[11:57] <reverseblade> LinTux, :)
[11:57] <Corbeaux> LinTux, why not just pirate?
[11:57] <ubuntuuser> how can i replace my pslash screen?
[11:57] <bimberi> !splash | ubuntuuser
[11:57] <ubotu> ubuntuuser: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image using !gconf-editor
[11:57] <reverseblade> DanglyBits, stable now, unstable tomorrow
[11:57] <LinTux> seems a good idea, but no need to, me staying with Linux now!
[11:57] <mc44> reverseblade: thats sort of the definition of unstable
[11:58] <Xinux> LinTux, you finance mr gates?
[11:58] <reverseblade> mc44, no I meant it becomes stable after updates
[11:58] <mnoir> DanglyBits: unstable, unsuitable for any but experimental use
[11:58] <reverseblade> mc44, unstable sorry
[11:58] <mnoir> and use is the wrong word too
[11:58] <livingtm> Im trying to make a backup of a VMware machine. Can't seem to make a tar.bz file bigger than 2GB. Is there a way i can do this?
[11:58] <Slingky> need help guys!
[11:58] <masura> Aodh, I have no idea what is a ppd. So unfortunately I can't tell how to fix the error. But for every manmade problem can be found a manmade solution. Google is probably the answer =D
[11:58] <moreno> hola
[11:58] <Slingky> how to trash evolution profile ?
[11:58] <mc44> reverseblade: yes, and there are updates all the time ;) so its not stable
[11:58] <moreno> alguien habla espaol
[11:59] <masura> net
[11:59] <mc44> !es | moreno
[11:59] <Slingky> i tried to delete .evolution, but data still there
[11:59] <ubotu> moreno: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[11:59] <ubuntuuser> ubotu, how do i do that?
[11:59] <Aodh> google yes... if its one there. :)
[11:59] <reverseblade> livingtm, you can have bigger tgz files than 2gb, but you may not be able to writem to a DVD
[11:59] <drach> !ubout
[11:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubout - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:59] <ubuntuuser> the manager, how do i use that?
[11:59] <JackInTheGreen> anyone here tried running Second Life on Linux?
[11:59] <livingtm> reverseblade, can i span it across mutiple files?
[12:00] <hjmills> reverseblade: it manages to successfully load the initrd.gz and other file it loads when you boot but restarts immediatly after loading the second one
[12:00] <cmweb> Whats a good alternative to wine that supports a lot of programs?
[12:00] <kane77> is there a command to grab a screen?? (printscreen to a file?) I need it for my script... I also remember something that records commands and makes script out of it
[12:00] <Bepo> Reverseblade: I finished the stuff for Totem-xine... but now the vids come out all washed out and stuff is there a fix for that?
[12:00] <LjL> cmweb: a virtual machine
[12:00] <bimberi> ubuntuuser: install and run it - gnome-splashscreen-manager
[12:00] <reverseblade> livingdaylight, tar can do it but I suggest you using split.  split -b 1000m backup.tgz will do it. To restore cat xaa xab xac ... > backup.tgz
[12:00] <masura> cmweb, cedega
[12:00] <ubuntuuser> no, i was trying to type your name. but, how do i use it? where do i find it?
[12:01] <reverseblade> Bepo, sorry too sleepy
[12:01] <Bepo> hehe ok
[12:01] <cmweb> virturalmachine is too long to download, cedega, how big
