[12:03] <ikonia> nalioth: I'd like to request kick ban please for eitan2

[12:03] <liquidengineer> I've got xubuntu running off a livecd
[12:03] <toM|vendettA> hi, how can i find out my gtk version???
[12:04] <eitan2> I asked my question and I just get ignored.
[12:04] <liquidengineer> I want to connect to my wireless nework
[12:04] <liquidengineer> so I'm in Network-admin
[12:04] <sbevill> frogzoo: i'm not completely sure what i'm looking for, what specifically should i keep an eye out for?
[12:04] <nalioth> eitan2: your question has been answered
[12:04] <Vlet> being ruse is fun :)
[12:04] <frogzoo> !patience | eitan2
[12:04] <ubotu> eitan2: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[12:04] <liquidengineer> it says enter password (WEP key)
[12:04] <ikonia> liquidengineer: dpkg -l | grep gtk
[12:04] <Vlet> s/ruse/rude
[12:04] <ikonia> just kick ban him
[12:04] <liquidengineer> I've got a WPA password
[12:04] <ikonia> he's obviously trolling
[12:04] <liquidengineer> is that going to be a problem?
[12:04] <sbevill> zaggynl: thanks, will try that
[12:04] <Zaggynl> Well he did ask his question
[12:04] <ikonia> "I don't understand the rudeness"
[12:04] <ikonia> yeah yeah
[12:04] <eitan2> nalioth: no it hasn't. If it were, I wouldn't be here being rudely ignored.
[12:04] <No1Bri> can someone help me with a install problem im having please
[12:04] <Zaggynl> sbevill, hope it helps, those usb resets are a bitch
[12:04] <Smuggle> Guys... im using Ubuntu Edgy now, but i used ubuntu dapper...
[12:04] <aoupi> liquidengineer: well yes, it's 2 different encryptoin algorithms
[12:04] <linux_kid> eitan2: you have been answered twice, now ill ask nicly to leave once more
[12:04] <ikonia> bimberi: he's been told 20 times
[12:04] <frogzoo> sbevill: anything that looks problematic, also google "linux + driver + keyboard make/model"
[12:04] <liquidengineer> I was afraid of that
[12:04] <nalioth> eitan2: please wait at least 5 minutes between asking the same question
[12:04] <liquidengineer> can I enter a WPA key somehow?
[12:05] <eitan2> nailoth: I've been waiting hours.
[12:05] <toM|vendettA> Can someone help me? All I need to know is my GTK version (how do I find it?)
[12:05] <linux_kid> frogzoo: he's not listening to any answers
[12:05] <Zaggynl> eitan2, no offense, but you should have used the time to google around, search fora, etc
[12:05] <nalioth> eitan2: then perhaps you should ask in another channel, like #samba perhaps
[12:05] <Smuggle> Guys... im using Ubuntu Edgy now, but i used ubuntu dapper... In text mode, my key "/" doesnt work, but in graphics, no problem. Anybody here had or has the same problem???
[12:05] <ikonia> nalioth: read the message log, when someone helps he starts slating ubuntu - he's trolling
[12:05] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: you could try using networkmanager, that supports WPA nicely
[12:05] <fiveiron> freakin a.... stupid windows programs

[12:05] <liquidengineer> where is that?
[12:05] <nalioth> FirstStrike: /ignore works great :)
[12:05] <eitan2> Zaggynl: the problem is not with samba, it's with ubuntu and gnome

[12:06] <sbevill> frogzoo: do you think it would be a keyboard driver problem or a usb device driver problem?
[12:06] <Zaggynl> eitan2, and when attempt to share the folder, you miss the samba option?
[12:06] <liquidengineer> Lynoure: I'm on dapper

[12:07] <Napster_> hi
[12:07] <eitan2> Zaggynl: that's right... no samba option... samba is installed.
[12:07] <ikonia> toM|vendettA: I told you dpkg -l | grep gtk or gtk-config --libs -version
[12:07] <Napster_> my add/remove programs button has disappeared. how do i get it back?
[12:07] <Zaggynl> eitan2, odd, I have had it for a pretty long while now
[12:07] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: network-manager-gnome
[12:07] <frogzoo> sbevill: you'll need a driver for the particular usb device
[12:07] <Zaggynl> eitan2, I'm going to search a bit, hold on
[12:07] <Vlet> toM|vendettA, check your synaptic package manager
[12:07] <linux_kid> nalioth: cant you remove him from the board, watch Zaggynl
[12:07] <ikonia> naloith seconded
[12:08] <liquidengineer> Lynoure: do I type that in the command line?
[12:08] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: or just   sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome

[12:08] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: not that, but the stuff after the "just" :)
[12:08] <toM|vendettA> thanks ikonia and Vlet, and ikonia I saw what you said about the dpkg thing but you addressed it to liquidengineer (<ikonia> liquidengineer: dpkg -l | grep gtk)
[12:08] <ikonia> toM|vendettA: my mistake - sorry
[12:08] <toM|vendettA> its cool :P thanks for the help
[12:08] <Napster_> my add/remove programs button has disappeared. how do i get it back?
[12:09] <eitan2> Zaggnyl: If I may... I was on this channel earlier and I wanted to do a file transfer between two computers on my lan... someone here said to use the shared folders but to use nfs and not samba... so when the I started the shared folders settings, it gave me a choice for samba, nfs, or both... I chose nfs... ever since then it has only allowed nfs, and not let me add samba.
[12:09] <HS^> is it possible to use the windows fonts for ubuntu
[12:09] <HS^> i like those
[12:09] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: but I might not be here long enough to walk you through it, but anyway, it should not put you to any worse situation
[12:09] <Napster_> ??
[12:09] <Napster_> ??
[12:09] <Selqet> happy new year
[12:09] <liquidengineer> Lynoure: I can't get on the internet, unfortunately
[12:09] <Zaggynl> eitan2, you could try to redo the process, and choose samba
[12:09] <bieb> HS.. yes...
[12:10] <Zaggynl> eitan2, also, here is a manual guide to get samba going: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605&highlight=samba+share
[12:10] <liquidengineer> I've only got wireless here, and I can't get it to connect because it's only taking a WEP pass
[12:10] <Zaggynl> eitan2, another option is to setup an ftp server
[12:10] <Napster_> HELP!!!!
[12:10] <eitan2> Zagfynl: I did... you don't understand... it's not giving me the choice like it did the first time.
[12:10] <Smuggle> [HS^] : has a package with the windows fonts..
[12:10] <Zaggynl> Napster_, please state the nature of the medical emergency

[12:11] <liquidengineer> and can I even run gnome apps?
[12:11] <notme> SoundSquare: speed or content?
[12:11] <liquidengineer> I'm using Xfce
[12:11] <nalioth> liquidengineer: join #xubuntu for more info, but linux in general doesn't play well with wpa
[12:11] <kitche> liquidengineer: yes but it will pull all of gnome with them also
[12:11] <sbevill> Zaggynl: ok, the keyboard and mouse both seem to be performing more appropriately now after switching usb ports.  hopefully that was the extent of the problem.  Thanks.
[12:11] <Zaggynl> 940 people in here, whoa
[12:11] <Zaggynl> sbevill, glad it did help a bit :)

[12:12] <SoundSquare> notme: first time i get on the chan and i'm overwhelmed by so many n00b questions, btw is there a dedicated ubuntuPPC chan ?
[12:12] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: I had no idea you were in xubuntu and not on ubuntu...
[12:12] <eitan2> Zaggynl: this computer is for a friend that needs things to work easily... I can't have him depend on terminal window commands... I just want to have the shared folders settings give me samba as an option... that's alll.
[12:12] <liquidengineer> Lynoure: Sorry
[12:12] <bieb> HS^ did you get that info?
[12:12] <liquidengineer> I should've been more clear
[12:12] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: ok, I have loaded + checked every module which is running on the machine that's working on the machien that's not
[12:12] <Zaggynl> eitan2, okay, what you could do, is set it up manually once, then your friend will be able to connect to the share just fine
[12:12] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: still nothing?
[12:12] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: the backend is there for xubuntu too, but how to use it nicely, I do not know.
[12:12] <Smuggle> [eitan2] : personaly, i prefer samba
[12:12] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: try /etc/init.d/networking restart
[12:12] <nalioth> Zaggynl: does samba use a ~/.samba or something? can that be wiped and eitan2 start over?
[12:12] <Napster_> i couldnt find it
[12:12] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: nope... ifup eth0 and no such device
[12:12] <n0cturnal_> kk
[12:12] <Napster_> wat exactly do i do
[12:13] <notme> SoundSquare:It has been interesting for me too. I don't think so.
[12:13] <liquidengineer> Lynoure: I'll check in #xubuntu
[12:13] <liquidengineer> thanks
[12:13] <notme> !ppc
[12:13] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers, and now a fully supported Ubuntu architecture.
[12:13] <eitan2> Zaggynl: so you're saying you don't know how to have the shared folders settings give me the samba option without pages full of terminal windows commands?
[12:13] <notme> !powerpc
[12:13] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: nope... same again
[12:13] <Zaggynl> nalioth, I'm not sure actually, I've poked around with samba quite a bit, but since I got the gui...
[12:13] <Zaggynl> eitan2, in short, yes. Where did you set the sharing option?
[12:13] <eitan2> nailoth: what I need to wipe is the shared folders settings...
[12:13] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: you could just use plain old wpa-suplicant, but that is a bit more hassle, in my opinion
[12:14] <Lynoure> liquidengineer: anyway, have happy tuning :)
[12:14] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: did you do any changes to the network on the 'mother' computer?
[12:14] <HS^> Smuggle:  where?

[12:15] <No1Bri> im trying to install ubuntu 6.10 from cd that I boot with, and I cant cause I keep getting a x server failed to load error... in the details it says fatal server error, no screens found... anyone help?
[12:16] <kitche> theflyingfool: you can restart X with ctrl+alt+backspace
[12:16] <eitan2> Zaggynl: I started the shared folders under system, administration ... it told me that there were no protocols installed... samba or nfs, and it asked me which of them I wanted or both... since people on this channel said "Don't use samba" I chose nfs. It then installed nfs, and since then has never asked me the question about using samba, I can't seem to have it as a shared folder option, and even though I installed samba with apt-get... there is no way to
[12:16] <eitan2>  use samba with a shared folder.
[12:16] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-base is just a wild guess but that could work
[12:16] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: not a thing. was working when I first did the install, still working on that pc. just not working on the other pc's after I did the mirror.
[12:16] <theflyingfool> i knew about restart X but i need to restart the computer and i dont want to
[12:16] <kitche> No1Bri: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should fix your problem after you configure it correctly
[12:16] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: short of that, should I just reload the stupid thing?
[12:16] <Zaggynl> eitan2, okay, there should ofcourse be a way to undo this
[12:16] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "ps -ef | grep smb"
[12:16] <Napster_> i cant find my add/remove button in the applications menu. how can i get it back?
[12:16] <Smuggle> [kitche] : the key "? or /" doesnt work... no symbols on the screen... like the key not exists.. but in the graphics mode, the key works fine!!..
[12:16] <Lynoure> theflyingfool: Give a bit info about what you need to restart for, please
[12:16] <kitche> theflyingfool: well thre isn't really a way to do it if it's a kernel upgrade
[12:16] <nalioth> eitan2: do you have samba installed?
[12:16] <theflyingfool> updates
[12:16] <Lynoure> theflyingfool: otherwise it's all "the sound of one hand clapping"

[12:17] <Lynoure> theflyingfool: which updates?
[12:17] <eitan2> Zaggynl: I hope to god there is. Please help. I've been at this for hours already. It shouldn't be this hard, and I'm really frustrated.
[12:17] <kitche> theflyingfool: you don't have to restart at all with updates only really have to restart when the kernel is
[12:17] <bradley> i am doing an online course and have to watch a video that is a .ram file. totem opens, seems to buffer but doesn't play it. can anyone help?
[12:17] <eitan2> nailoth: yes
[12:17] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "ps -ef | grep smb"
[12:17] <Zaggynl> eitan2, when you're getting angry, you learn the fastest :)
[12:17] <Lynoure> theflyingfool: unless they ask you to, you do not necessarily need to.
[12:17] <bieb> HS^ here is a link   http://www.linux.org.mt/article/ttfonts
[12:17] <theflyingfool> it just gave me the restart thing up by notifcations
[12:17] <Lynoure> theflyingfool: usually just restarting the relevant programs is good enough.
[12:18] <LinTux> I just downloaded Ubuntu x64, I burnt the image but it start installing in black and white with layout not looking right, what have I done wrong?
[12:18] <No1Bri> kitche: can I configure by booting the CD that I burnt?
[12:18] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: ubuntu-base is not installed.... =\ ?
[12:18] <eitan2> Zaggynl: ... I learn fast already, but no one has been able to tell me what to do to solve this problem. I even tried uninstalling nfs and samba, and hoping that the shared folders settings window would ask me the question again about needing to install nfs or samba, but that didn't work.
[12:18] <kitche> No1Bri: yes that command works on the cd as well
[12:18] <ikonia> LinTux: looks like you got the alt cd
[12:18] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "ps -ef | grep smb"
[12:18] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "ps -ef | grep smb"
[12:18] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "ps -ef | grep smb"
[12:18] <Zaggynl> easy there
[12:18] <ikonia> why do you ignore someone helping you
[12:18] <theflyingfool> how do i tell how long its been since my last restart
[12:18] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: uh. that's very odd
[12:18] <ikonia> this is why its annoyinh
[12:18] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: worth installing? :P
[12:18] <LinTux> ikonia: go again?
[12:18] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: very much soo
[12:18] <Zaggynl> eitan2, could you please try executing that in a terminal:  "ps -ef | grep smb"
[12:18] <Lynoure> theflyingfool: uptime  is the command for that
[12:18] <ikonia> hes desperate to get it fixed but ignores help
[12:19] <IceTox> ya guys know of any known reasons to why xorg starts taking too much of CPU?
[12:19] <Smuggle> [kitche] : did you understand?
[12:19] <nalioth> eitan2: this is not the best channel for samba, but #samba is
[12:19] <ikonia> LinTux: there is a install cd, and an alt install cd - the alt install cd has a text installer
[12:19] <ikonia> or do you mean it installed a text based system
[12:19] <kitche> Smuggle: my only guess is that your /etc/inputrc is probably missing something
[12:19] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: lemme go find a floppy to download it to :P
[12:19] <Vlet> Anyone know how to set a nic's MAC back to it's default?
[12:19] <eitan2> Zaggynl: samba is not running as a process
[12:20] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: :(
[12:20] <ikonia> its not installed then
[12:20] <ikonia> the init script would start it
[12:20] <kitche> Vlet: yes just reboot
[12:20] <ikonia> when you install it
[12:20] <Zaggynl> eitan2, thanks
[12:20] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: can you move around the cd drive?
[12:20] <ikonia> or when you rebooted
[12:20] <Smuggle> [kitche] : something like what?
[12:20] <LinTux> ikonia: No graphical install, but it is in black & white and does not look right on the graphics
[12:20] <dude> can i install sakai with free java instead of jre
[12:20] <eitan2> nalioth: but the problem is NOT with samba. The problem is with the shared folders window not giving me any choice but NFS.
[12:20] <ikonia> so - the fact that I've been asking him to do that for abou an hour now
[12:20] <Vlet> kitche: well, yeah... I should have appended, "without rebooting" :)
[12:20] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: seems like a lot less head-ache to install the individualy
[12:20] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "dpkg -l  | grep samba"
[12:21] <Napster_> i really need help wit this. my add/remove button has disappeared from the applications menu. how can i get it back?
[12:21] <ikonia> LinTux: looks like you've done a server install instead of a desktop install
[12:21] <mzanfardino> noob question: just installed PostgreSQL which creates a 'postgres' user.  How do I change the password?  when I 'su postgres' as sudo user, I'm asked for the current password and I have no idea what it is... is there another way?
[12:21] <ikonia> LinTux: server install doesn't install X
[12:21] <LinTux> ikonia: ok me try again
[12:21] <aoupi> LinTux: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to get the graphical things
[12:21] <Smuggle> [Napster_] : yore looking at the menu like "root" user or a simple user?
[12:21] <notme> Apparently my php is messed. I installed my lamp server from a faq and when this problem occured I tried to go back and fix php but it didn't work. so now I am thinking to do mysql and php over but I want to start with a clean install as much as possible. Is there anyway to wipe that stuff out?
[12:21] <ikonia> Mazus: sudo user - when you do sudo it doesn't change user
[12:21] <Napster_> simple
[12:22] <Vlet> mzanfardino: sudo passwd postgres
[12:22] <Napster_> i think
[12:22] <Napster_> im a noob
[12:22] <Napster_> i dunno the diff
[12:22] <somerville32> mzanfardino, , sudo password postgres
[12:22] <Smuggle> [Napster_] : so... a simple user cant remove a program..
[12:22] <somerville32> *passwd
[12:22] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "dpkg -l  | grep samba"
[12:22] <mzanfardino> Vlet: brilliant!  thank you!
[12:22] <Napster_> i can remove programs
[12:22] <mzanfardino> somerville32: thank you too! :)
[12:22] <kitche> Smuggle: umm they can remove icons on the menu
[12:23] <Smuggle> [Napster_] : to test this.. try a $ aptitude remove "progam"
[12:23] <dude> !sakai
[12:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sakai - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:23] <kitche> Napster_: someone told you already let me go though the logs of this channel to find it again
[12:23] <Smuggle> [kitche] : only the icons.. but the program?? I dont think so..
[12:23] <Vlet> Napster_: open your 'menu layout' applet in preferences and add an item which launches /usr/bin/gnome-app-install
[12:23] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "dpkg -l  | grep samba"
[12:24] <alex_> !bootable
[12:24] <Napster_> i couldnt find that
[12:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootable - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:24] <Smuggle> [kitche] : he wants add/remove icons on his applications menu?? huahuahua

[12:24] <Smuggle> [kitche] : So i didnt understand very well... sorry...
[12:24] <eitan2> this is terrible... I'm going to shut down... reformat the drive and reinstall ubuntu. I'll be back in several hours when that's done.
[12:25] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "dpkg -l  | grep samba"
[12:25] <ikonia> eitan2: why are you not listening
[12:25] <Napster_> i cant find the menu layout applet
[12:25] <Smuggle> [kitche] : the key "? or /" doesnt work... no symbols on the screen... like the key not exists.. but in the graphics mode, the key works fine!!..
[12:25] <ikonia> nalioth: will you ban him now - you can clearly see he's trolling
[12:25] <ikonia> eitan2: why are you not listening

[12:25] <ikonia> Zaggynl: its it not clear he's trolling
[12:25] <toM|vendettA> Anyone available to help me? I am trying to set this up but I cannot get it to work ( I see the Mac-Menu in my add to panel option, but when I add it nothing shows up) http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=241868

[12:26] <ikonia> eitan2: show me the output of "dpkg -l  | grep samba"
[12:26] <ikonia> please show me the output of that command
[12:26] <eitan2> Zaggynl: ... I know... I've just resigned myself to suffering... you are the only person here who seems to care to help me do this.
[12:26] <Zaggynl> eitan2, we're trying to help you, could you please execute the command "dpkg -l  | grep samba"

[12:26] <gizmo_the_great1> hi. i really hope somone can help. I am using Kino to stream of digital footage to my Ubuntu PC. I then export the footage as either an avi, VOB or MPEG (tried all three) and wrote it to DVD (using Gnomebaker). But when the DVD disk is put into the family DVD player it says 'Disc cannot be read'. In Windows I used to be able to create a VOB set which, when inserted into DVD player, just played like a normal DVD. What am I
[12:26] <eitan2> Zaggynl: ok wait
[12:26] <gizmo_the_great1> doing wrong?
[12:26] <ikonia> why are you not listening !!!!!
[12:26] <Zaggynl> eitan2, did you /ignore ikonia ?
[12:27] <nikin> ikonia... you deserve a lot of respect for ypur patiente
[12:27] <kitche> ikonia: he probably ignored you just like a lot of people did probab;y
[12:27] <ikonia> kitche: no - he was chatting until I gave him a fix - then he went off on one
[12:27] <eitan2> Zaggynl: I did. Since he was wanting me to leave.
[12:27] <linux_kid> ikonia: he just wont stop!!!!!!!!!!!!
[12:27] <Napster_> so wat do i do?
[12:27] <Zaggynl> eitan2, please unignore him, he wants to help you, although he has problems staying calm
[12:27] <ikonia> linux_kid: I know - and it make me look bad for tyring to help he
[12:28] <ikonia> 3 people have ignored him for trolloing
[12:28] <Zaggynl> ..?
[12:28] <kitche> ikonia: if you notice he ignored you so he can't even see what you say
[12:28] <ikonia> kitche: I know that now

[12:29] <dude> ikonia, thx anyway
[12:29] <ikonia> dude: sorry
[12:30] <nikin> the only think that comes to my mind about eithan2 that he thinks that there is a dropdown menu somwhere where he can select, and he ignores any command line based solutions
[12:30] <ikonia> nikin: the problem is he doesn't have smaba installed
[12:30] <Robbins> i have a question... can someone help?
[12:30] <ikonia> so gnome isn't aware of samba options
[12:30] <somerville32> !ask | Robbins
[12:30] <ubotu> Robbins: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:30] <ikonia> but he won't believe me that he doesn't have samba insalled
[12:30] <Robbins> recently my laptop was injured, and my hd is trashed... i'm forced to use a live distro of ubuntu as my main os for now...
[12:31] <Robbins> without a HD i cant save ubuntu data to it, or save it as an os to a partition
[12:31] <Robbins> so how can i save data, and run the live cd like its an operating system?
[12:31] <HS^> The following packages have unmet dependencies:  msttcorefonts: Depends: cabextract (>= 0.1-2) but it is not installableE: Broken packages
[12:31] <HS^> why is that error?
[12:31] <aoupi> Robbins: get a new HD :)
[12:31] <kitche> Robbins: there is a way to do it but I forgot the ubotu switch for the howto
[12:31] <Robbins> aoupi... i know
[12:31] <Robbins> can i use a usb drive?
[12:31] <Robbins> like a flash drive?
[12:31] <aoupi> Robbins: you could also get a memory stick and mount it to /home
[12:31] <Robbins> ok.
[12:31] <No1Bri> how do I run the command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg when Im booting with the cd to install?
[12:32] <n0cturnal_> aoupi: still not happening... time to reload?
[12:32] <Robbins> how do i mount again?
[12:32] <nikin> ikonia: i understand. Just i ame folowing this conversation for a while now.. and i just cant understand why he did, what he did. thats all.
[12:32] <ikonia> because he was trolling
[12:32] <aoupi> n0cturnal_: yea... can you move the CD drive to the other computers?
[12:32] <Zaggynl> Robbins, http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/mounting.html

[12:36] <HS^> how do you add all those opengl effects to ubuntu (cubus screens)
[12:36] <Napster> if u click on applications, right at the bottom there should b an add/remove button
[12:36] <HS^> ?
[12:36] <kitche> ikonia: think he's refering to the gnome Add/Remove Program think he removed it from the menu
[12:36] <Napster> mines gone
[12:36] <notme> I have been told that my php is hosed. How can I un-hose my php? Can I just delete it all and start over?
[12:36] <Napushenko> aoupi:where can i download them?
[12:36] <Zaggynl> gameover, you mean, without x-window-system?
[12:36] <gameover> HS, beryl

[12:36] <Napushenko> aoupi:but in .deb file because i dont have compieler on my ubuntu
[12:36] <gameover> thanks! :)
[12:37] <Vlet> Napster: We have told you many many times how to do it
[12:37] <aoupi> Napushenko: it was a joke, I don't think they are what you want, they are very advanced text editors
[12:37] <kitche> Vlet: he doesn't know where the menu layout preference is though
[12:37] <Napushenko> ups..
[12:37] <obi-1> Napushenko, you should try VIM
[12:37] <Napster> i couldnt find wat u were talking bout
[12:37] <kitche> Vlet: I do most of my stuff by hand or else I would tell him where it's at :)
[12:37] <Vlet> well then he better turn off the computer
[12:37] <Napushenko> obi-1,where i can download VIM ?
[12:37] <Napster> i went where u sed and it wasnt there
[12:37] <aoupi> Napushenko: in ubuntu you install applications through synaptic
[12:38] <aoupi> !synaptic
[12:38] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[12:38] <obi-1> Napushenko, it's installed already.. you should customize it
[12:38] <Noah0504> I downloaded an album that contains two files: A FLAC file with the audio and a cue sheet.  However, I cannot figure out how to burn it under Ubuntu.  Can anyone help me?
[12:38] <obi-1> Napushenko, www.vim.org
[12:38] <Vlet> Napster, you have to add it yourself. Add a new item
[12:38] <Napster> i know
[12:38] <Napster> but how?
[12:38] <Napster> where exactly do i go?
[12:38] <kitche> Napushenko: open up a terminal and type vim if it says command not found then sudo apt-get install vim-full will install it
[12:38] <timo901> is this #ubuntu ?
[12:39] <tonyyarusso> timo901: yes
[12:39] <Napushenko> aoupi:i dont have internet conecytion so i can't install nothing...
[12:39] <Bill574> i i am new to ubuntu how do i go about adding a new theme?
[12:39] <aoupi> timo901: yes
[12:39] <mwalker_mewconsu> yes
[12:39] <tonyyarusso> !themes | Bill574

[12:39] <No1Bri> im trying to do a fresh new install of ubuntu 6.10 from cd that I boot with, and I cant cause I keep getting a x server failed to load error... in the details it says fatal server error, no screens found... anyone help?
[12:39] <ebroder> hey - i just finished installing, but i can't get my machine to boot up. when i try to boot from the hd, it just hangs after the bios's stuff. when i boot from a grub floppy, it says "GRUB Loading stage2....." then hangs.
[12:40] <ebroder> (it's a server install of 6.10)
[12:40] <kitche> No1Bri: did you try my recommandation?
[12:40] <ikonia> kitche:  he's on ati
[12:40] <aoirthoir> wow! it rejoins the channel
[12:40] <ikonia> I explained it to him
[12:40] <obi-1> ebroder, perhaps the bios doesn't recongnizes the hd
[12:40] <aoirthoir> uh wrong channel
[12:40] <ikonia> (I think it was him)
[12:40] <linux_kid> etian hello
[12:40] <No1Bri> kitche: I cant get that to work cause I dont know how/where I type the command you gave me
[12:40] <ebroder> obi-1: it should - it has in the past, i was just reinstalling
[12:41] <ebroder> obi-1: i may have been using debian before; can't remember
[12:41] <ebroder> and in any case it was a much older version
[12:41] <nikin> kitche: i found it :D
[12:41] <kitche> No1Bri: when you click ok after the error you should be at a terminal
[12:41] <obi-1> ebroder, well.. if the bios recongnizes the hard drive sporadically.. than you should reconsider buying a new one
[12:41] <ebroder> obi-1: i've also tried booting off a grub floppy
[12:42] <Napushenko> linux_kid:do you now some HTML/PHP editor for Ubuntu but i .deb file?
[12:42] <kitche> No1Bri: that is where you type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:42] <No1Bri> kitche: oh I see... lemme try that
[12:42] <HS^> Package cabextract is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:42] <ebroder> obi-1: it's not sporadic. fsck finds nothing wrong, and it consistently does the same thing post install (i've tried installing multiple times - same thing). also, the install runs fine
[12:42] <nikin> !presistent
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about presistent - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <HS^> what do i need to do to install cabextract
[12:43] <linux_kid> Napushenko: just get the "nvu" package with sudo apt-get install nvu
[12:43] <obi-1> ebroder, ahh.. sorry
[12:43] <nikin> !casper-cow
[12:43] <Napushenko> i have nvu
[12:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about casper-cow - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:43] <Napushenko> but i dont have internet conection on my laptop
[12:43] <frogzoo> !botabuse | nikin
[12:43] <ubotu> nikin: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[12:43] <HS^> what do i need to do to install cabextract
[12:43] <linux_kid> Napushenko: it works fine as an html editor
[12:43] <Napushenko> and i dont have gcc compailer..
[12:43] <eshat_> Hey can anyone speak to me, i want to see if the test is highlighted
[12:44] <Napster> i still cannot find it
[12:44] <Napushenko> where to download the editor?
[12:44] <Napster> is anyone willing to help me still
[12:44] <frogzoo> eshat_: can't see a thing
[12:44] <obi-1> ebroder, so.. you can install.. but after installing it, grub doesn't seem to find the hard drive
[12:44] <ebroder> correct
[12:44] <eshat_> frogzoo: Yes it works, thank you
[12:44] <linux_kid> Napushenko: im a scriptor, not a coder, sorry
[12:44] <nikin> Robbins are you here?
[12:44] <obi-1> ebroder, i get it now
[12:44] <gnutz> How do I make Nautilus always be in sudo mode
[12:44] <gnutz> ?
[12:44] <frogzoo> gnutz: you definitely don't want to do that
[12:45] <Napushenko> linux_kid:okey\
[12:45] <gnutz> Why is that?
[12:45] <obi-1> ebroder, does your floppy grub is configured to boot the partition where the system is installed?
[12:45] <notme> !php
[12:45] <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+)
[12:45] <gnutz> Im learning how to use XAMPP
[12:45] <d1gita1> how do i edit the bootlogo of a livecd?
[12:45] <gnutz> and im sick of puting in a pass word ever time I need to modify a file
[12:46] <ebroder> obi-1: i would assume so. i created it using the grub-floppy command from the target drive after the install was finished
[12:46] <gnutz> Frogzoo
[12:46] <ebroder> obi-1: but i have to run. thanks for your help

[12:47] <Seta-San> so is the x64 version of ubuntu screwd up or not?
[12:47] <Slart> HS^: apt-get install cabextract doesn't work?
[12:47] <ikonia> Seta-San: no
[12:47] <roflarn> HS^: sudo apt-get install cabextract
[12:47] <Slart> Seta-San: it's not all bad.. no native flash though
[12:47] <Asc> gnutz: you could try renaming nautilus real.nautilus, and make a shell script named nautilus which reads 'gksu real.nautilus'.  It might not work, but it's worth a try if you're dead set on being incautious.
[12:47] <Seta-San> well, flash sucks anyway
[12:47] <black_13> kitche how about just wiping the partition that has sarge?
[12:48] <Seta-San> ubuntu and kubuntu won't install
[12:48] <Slart> Seta-San: then 64-bit ubuntu is all ok =)
[12:48] <Seta-San> disc images are fine
[12:48] <kitche> No1Bri: hmm that is odd so it just takes you back to a prompt and not something hat looks like >
[12:48] <Seta-San> go to install and it freezes
[12:48] <kitche> black_13: well that will be called a full install and that would work
[12:48] <black_13> kitche of coarse
[12:48] <Slart> Seta-San: tried disconnecting external USB drives etc?
[12:49] <black_13> kitche but this is dual boot laptop
[12:49] <No1Bri> kitche: correct it just a black screen with a " _ " blinking
[12:49] <Slart> Seta-San: if that doesn't work there's always the alternate install cd
[12:49] <Seta-San> like my mouse?
[12:49] <d1gita1> how do i edit the bootlogo of a livecd?  i can edit the pcx but what do i do about the rle?
[12:49] <linux_kid> Seta-San: alt. disc install instead?
[12:49] <black_13> first partition is ntfs and the second is debian sarge
[12:49] <Seta-San> alt disc?
[12:49] <Slart> Seta-San: nah.. mouse should be fine.. but it didn't like my external dvd burner
[12:49] <Slart> !alternate
[12:49] <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.
[12:49] <HS^> Slart:  and roflarn:  it doesnt work , it sais; Package cabextract is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[12:49] <black_13> but i have no way to install ndisloaders
[12:49] <Seta-San> only things i got is my hp printer
[12:49] <No1Bri> kitche: im pretty sure the disc is good I run the disc checker and it says that its fine 0 checksums failed
[12:49] <Slart> HS^: hold on, I'll check
[12:50] <HS^> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
[12:50] <jrib> HS^: have you enabled universe?
[12:50] <HS^> i dont understand this....
[12:50] <HS^> jrib:  i dont know?
[12:50] <Asc> gnutz: Dunno if it'd do what you want though.  It's possible that if the instance of nautilus that runs when gnome starts is sudoed, all subsequent nautilus file manager windows will be.
[12:50] <kitche> No1Bri: ok this is what you probably have to do edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf by hand with nano or vim whichever you choose
[12:50] <jrib> !universe | HS^
[12:50] <ubotu> HS^: 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
[12:50] <gameover> my computer is taking too long to boot, it stops in configuring network interfaces
[12:50] <jrib> HS^: you'll need to enable universe to install cabextract
[12:50] <linux_kid> gameover: so do the rest of ours
[12:51] <gnutz> Asc it become a pain when I have to PW every time I want to mode a file
[12:51] <Slart> HS^: system menu, administration, software sources... first page.. check the checkbox for universe
[12:51] <gameover> ???
[12:51] <No1Bri> kitche: by hand? lol im too noob for that, would trying to install from 6.06 be a better route for me?
[12:51] <gnutz> Im just use to haveing a true root account
[12:51] <gnutz>  that way I dont have to be a 1/2 user
[12:51] <binbrain> wondering if anybody could give me some ideas for troubleshooting a strange sound problem after upgrading to edgy. essentailly, sound comes and goes. It seems to happen and random, never consistent
[12:51] <Slart> gnutz: you can always get a root terminal window using sudo su
[12:52] <d1gita1> gnutz:  sudo passwd root                now you have a real root account
[12:52] <jrib> binbrain: does it happen only with particular programs?
[12:52] <kitche> No1Bri: probably
[12:52] <Slart> gnutz: and the root account is there.. it's just disabled.. you can enable it.. see d1gita1's mess
[12:52] <Asc> gnutz: If you really, really, want to you can give the root account a password and log in as root.  But don't complain when your system gets trashed.
[12:52] <gnutz> ok Im still a Gnubie
[12:52] <binbrain> jrib: No I even tried killing x and using the cmd line mpg123 to play a sound
[12:52] <gnutz> thanx you guys
[12:52] <aristoteles> hi
[12:52] <gnutz>  I love this channel
[12:52] <aristoteles> i need a hint
[12:53] <No1Bri> kitche: well thanks for helping me out..... hopefully 6.06 will work and I wont have to come back ;)
[12:53] <jrib> aristoteles: ask a question :)
[12:53] <aristoteles> how do i set my usb sound card the standard device?
[12:53] <Asc> We love you too, gnutz.
[12:53] <Slart> just ask, aristoteles
[12:53] <Slart> oh.. usb sound cards.. never had one of those.. sorry
[12:53] <gnutz> Asc why would my system get trashed on having full privs like normal GNU
[12:53] <aristoteles> the problem is, the standard device changes back
[12:53] <gnutz> ?
[12:53] <Slart> gnutz: rm -rf can play tricks on you ;)
[12:54] <Toran> is there a way to disable a program's audio output via alsa or something outside of that program?
[12:54] <d1gita1> aristotles: i have one.... and if i could get it to work i would help you...
[12:54] <gnutz> is there different bash commands in Ubuntu?
[12:54] <nikin> gnutz: doing an rm -r / can do truble
[12:54] <aristoteles> d1gita1: when i manage i tell you :)
[12:54] <gnutz> and if the is does anyone have a link for them?
[12:54] <Slart> Toran: you can do a echo "myprogramname 0 0 disable" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
[12:54] <Toran> sweet
[12:55] <Slart> Toran: if you're using the first alsa card for output
[12:55] <Asc> gnutz: Well, having to enter a password is supposed to help people keep from doing anything silly.  I broke my system once or twice with sudoed stuff when I was an ickle newbie.
[12:55] <aristoteles> can someone tell whether the sound modules have to be in a certain position inside /etc/modules?
[12:55] <Toran> I only have one
[12:55] <nikin> gnutz: different 'bash commands'?
[12:55] <Toran> bash: /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss: Permission denied
[12:55] <aristoteles> or how i can keep ubuntu from loading a certain module?
[12:55] <Toran> Even with sudo
[12:55] <gnutz> added bash command
[12:55] <gnutz> for Unbutu
[12:55] <gnutz>  rather
[12:56] <nikin> aristotel.. blacklist it in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[12:56] <cafuego_> Slart: Yes, that would only work if you ran 'sudo -s' first.
[12:56] <eitan> Who is the moderator of this channel?
[12:56] <frying_fish> aristoteles: add it to the blacklist
[12:56] <Toran> Nevermind, I got it
[12:56] <cafuego_> Sorry, Toran even.
[12:56] <gnutz> Asc I see what u mean corrupting files ect...
[12:56] <frying_fish> eitan: why?
[12:56] <aristoteles> frying_fish: what is that?
[12:56] <frying_fish> aristoteles: /etc/modules/blacklist I think
[12:56] <aristoteles> and how do i do that?
[12:56] <frying_fish> or something like that
[12:56] <aristoteles> ok
[12:56] <nikin> aristoteles: se my line further up
[12:56] <frying_fish> edit the file, and add the module name
[12:56] <Toran> do I have to restart alsa?
[12:56] <Slart> cafuego: indeed.. forgot about that
[12:57] <ekaeka> hello, can someone here give me information about ubuntu's partitioning slidebar in the desktop install? kind of a newbie question.. :|
[12:57] <gnutz> Does anyone know of a good channel for Install 'Properly' Apache to make it functional
[12:57] <gnutz> installing
[12:57] <jrib> !apache | gnutz
[12:57] <oidia> properly?
[12:57] <ubotu> gnutz: 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+)
[12:57] <frying_fish> gnutz: apt-get install apache doesn't do it?
[12:57] <nikin> gnutz: apt-get install apache2 will do the trick :D it did for me :D
[12:58] <frying_fish> its what I did on both my debian system and ubuntu systems
[12:58] <Slart> Toran: permissions might give you some trouble.. you can do this first sudo su, chmod a+rw -R /proc/asound/card0    it will give you permission to write to the file mentioned
[12:58] <roflarn> any free ftp client that supports ssl?
[12:58] <gnutz> Im running XAMPP
[12:58] <Toran> Slart: I got it in there, but the program is still making noise when I started it
[12:58] <ekaeka> hello? can anyone answer a quick question?
[12:58] <Slart> Toran: there probably is a better way to do that last thing... but that works for me.
[12:58] <gnutz>  got it installed and secured but...
[12:58] <ikonia> ekaeka: ask it
[12:58] <eitan> frying_fish: are you this channel's moderator?
[12:58] <frying_fish> eitan: no, but why do you want to know who they are.
[12:59] <ikonia> eitan: the command !ops shows the operators names
[12:59] <eitan> !ops
[12:59] <ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos or tonyyarusso
[12:59] <Slart> Toran: still making sound?.. hmm.. you sure you could do the echo thing? is the process name correct? check with ps -A
[12:59] <gnutz> Need a master on seting up DIRs in the proper files ect..
[12:59] <numist> ?!
[12:59] <tonyyarusso> eitan: yes?
[12:59] <Toran> Yeah, I checked the process name
[12:59] <Toran> and i know it is in there, I cat'd the file
[12:59] <kitche> eitan: might not want to use that switch when nothing bad is happening
[12:59] <ikonia> kitche: sorry - that was my fault
[12:59] <ikonia> I told him that would inform him of the ops
[12:59] <eitan> tonyyarusso: I need to speak with you about something that happened on this channel.
[01:00] <eitan> tonyyarusso: privately.
[01:00] <Slart> Toran: hmm.. odd.. perhaps you're using some other sound output thingy.. there are many of them.. pcm0p, pcm1p etc...
[01:00] <ekaeka> ikonia: Im at the part in the desktop install of 6.10 where it asks me to resize my main partition, of windows which I wish to keep to dual boot, my question is whether that slider is to give a new size to the existing windows partition or choose a size for the ubuntu partition
[01:00] <tonyyarusso> eitan: Okay, join #ubuntu-ops  (and refrain from using the trigger unless immediate attention is required to correct a problem)
[01:00] <Slart> Toran: I've never seen my box use anything other than the first though
[01:00] <tonyyarusso> ikonia: Next time suggest /msg ubotu :)
[01:00] <ikonia> ekaeka: the silder will resize whatever partition youve selected
[01:01] <ikonia> tonyyarusso: understood
[01:01] <aristoteles> nikin: ok, i am taking a chance on your hint. thanks, brb
[01:01] <nikin> aristoteles: nm
[01:01] <aleka> I had a problem with Skype droping my microphone after 2 minutes.... I just installed Gizmo to see if it is a problem with my mic or if it was just a Skype issue.. My question is.. Does Gizmo have a testing call center?? How can I check my Mic works with Gizmo?
[01:02] <ekaeka> ikonia: alright, so Im resizing the windows partition then, which is 66.8GB, and if I want the ubuntu partition to be 10gb, I would reduce that to 56.8, correct?
[01:02] <nalioth> eitan: join #ubuntu-ops please
[01:02] <ikonia> ekaeka: yes you'll have to reduce it to hae enough space to create the ubuntu partition when you're asked to do so
[01:02] <ikonia> understand what I mean ?
[01:03] <kyhx> !wine-use
[01:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wine-use - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:03] <notme> aleka you can call me on gizmo
[01:03] <kyhx> !wine
[01:03] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:03] <MindFreak> I have a quick question for someone, how do I get FIREFOX to open local .php as html
[01:03] <notme> aleka one sec
[01:03] <ekaeka> err, well Im being asked right now to make a partition, at step 5 of 6 in the desktop install, and I asume that 10gb is adequate for ubuntu
[01:04] <aoupi> MindFreak: you need a webserver that supports php
[01:04] <jrib> MindFreak: has nothing to do with firefox
[01:04] <mnoir> MindFreak: as html or as php?
[01:04] <ikonia> ekaeka: enough for a base install
[01:04] <nikin> MF: install webserver and php
[01:04] <MindFreak> I would like it to open .php files in Firefox to view it as an HTML Mime
[01:04] <ekaeka> ikonia: base install? what other install options would there be? Im running the live dvd right now of 6.10
[01:04] <elyon> What is a good directory to store files used by all the users of my system?
[01:05] <elyon> More specifically, MP3
[01:05] <Slart> MindFreak: you want to look at the PHP source code using a html -viewer?
[01:05] <ikonia> ekaeka: well you can eat up space if you install say - a web server, or a mail server
[01:05] <mnoir> elyon: something in /var
[01:05] <elyon> oh grr... I have to reboot?  None of my drives are mounted and it says it can't mount them.
[01:05] <mnoir> elyon: or maybe /media
[01:05] <MindFreak> well, I designed my site, and instead of them being .html files, they are .php because some of the code requires it to be named .php instead of .html
[01:05] <doofy> is there a good tutorial for installing compiz with fglrx
[01:05] <MindFreak> so I would like to view my index.php through firefox
[01:05] <elyon> mnoir:  thanks.
[01:06] <stoorty> ekaeka: a base install if what you need to get and running
[01:06] <Slart> MindFreak: you can't just rename them, look at them and then rename them back?
[01:06] <ekaeka> ikonia: ah, no, Im a simple user just looking to dual boot windows and ubuntu to learn more about linux and migrate from windows, nothing fancy involving networking :)
[01:06] <stoorty> is*
[01:06] <ikonia> ekaeka: thats great - you'll be fine with 10 GB
[01:06] <MindFreak> www.sk0t.com/index.php
[01:06] <MindFreak> that shows my site.
[01:06] <Slart> MindFreak: although there should be a way to just look at them using firefox or anything
[01:06] <mnoir> MindFreak: do you mean they have to work like on a webserver?
[01:06] <ikonia> just keep in mind if you download say a dvd image to burn you'll soon eat up space
[01:06] <sn00p|> Does anybody know of a good ftp client for ubuntu that uses ssl?
[01:06] <linux_kid> MindFreak: i did the same years ago in xp, what i did was use the Opera browser, see if it works in linux
[01:06] <Slart> sn00p|: don't know if gftp uses ssl.. but I think it's ok
[01:06] <stoorty> ekaeka: its like you windows setup, if you want to add or remove stuff to your preference
[01:07] <ikonia> sn00p|: does gftp not have ssl  ?
[01:07] <MindFreak> I thought my editing the php in /etc/mime.types    and adding php to the text/html area it would work
[01:07] <MindFreak> and it didnt
[01:07] <sn00p|> Slart, well ilt says it does but I don tknow how to work ssl
[01:07] <ikonia> MindFreak: no
[01:07] <stoorty> just do it when installing
[01:07] <sn00p|> ikonia, I dont know how to figur eit out
[01:07] <jrib> MindFreak: but you'll end up seeing  <?php echo "foo"; ?>  in your browser.  This is what you want?
[01:07] <ikonia> it needs to be "served up"
[01:07] <Slart> sn00p|: hmm.. I'll check.. hold on
[01:07] <sn00p|> Slart, ok
[01:07] <ikonia> as php is server side
[01:07] <mnoir> MindFreak: install apache2 and php
[01:07] <MindFreak> no I want the site to view like it would a normal html file
[01:07] <MindFreak> firefox to view php as html
[01:08] <MindFreak> I dont really need apache though
[01:08] <ikonia> MindFreak: you can't do that
[01:08] <MindFreak> I mean if that is a last resort I can.
[01:08] <in10city> anybody know of a good room to go to for mythtv help?
[01:08] <mnoir> MindFreak: php code is NOT NORMAL IN AN html file
[01:08] <ikonia> php is server side so it will just show the code
[01:08] <ekaeka> alright, well I think Ill be fine with 10gb to start, for now anyway, thanks :)
[01:08] <genben> hi all, i am trying to make a sandisk 1GB usbstick bootable on ubuntu edgy eft, used parted to make a fat16 partition, now i can seem to mount it, getting wrong FS type on the mount. what should i be using? ... msdos, vfat
[01:08] <genben> i can't seem*
[01:08] <MindFreak> listen, if you rename a .html to .php and load into your browser it will show like any other HTML file
[01:09] <MindFreak> and that is what I want firefox to read it as.
[01:09] <ikonia> MindFreak: no it won't
[01:09] <MindFreak> YES IT WILL.
[01:09] <MindFreak> all my sites are designed like that
[01:09] <MindFreak> www.sk0t.com
[01:09] <ikonia> if you have php code in it - it won't execute the code
[01:09] <kitche> genben: did you format it also?
[01:09] <MindFreak> all are .PHP
[01:09] <jrib> MindFreak: it will if your php file doesn't actually have any php
[01:09] <cafuego_> MindFreak: call it .phps
[01:09] <aleka> Is anybody using the webmail extension from Mozdev for thunderbird?
[01:09] <Znarken> can some1 here help med with x server?
[01:09] <genben> kitche: hmm
[01:09] <milaks> Hello. I'm using ubuntu EE i386, and have recently installed Kubuntu-desktop also, in hope that it will be significantly faster. It's faster, but still (K)Ubuntu (system and applications) is a lot slower thank Windows XP. I'have AMD Athlon 64 3000+ and 2 GB of RAM. My question is: If I install (K)ubuntu for amd64 will I also have in repositry most applications compiled for A64 (KDE, Gnome, Sylpheed...)?
[01:09] <ikonia> oooh you mean just a php extension of php - not actually containing any php
[01:09] <MindFreak> wellyes
[01:09] <aoupi> MindFreak: yes, but then the webserver sees that it is a php file and run the php code in it
[01:09] <MindFreak> YES
[01:10] <ikonia> MindFreak: why would you want to do that ?
[01:10] <MindFreak> well how can I get .PHP to read as .HTML, since I dont want to rename them all to .HTML
[01:10] <cafuego_> aoupi: No, it only does that for files with the correct file extension.
[01:10] <linux_kid> genben: why use fat16 instead of FAT
[01:10] <ikonia> whats the point of putting html into a .php extension
[01:10] <ikonia> other than to make people thing the site is written in php
[01:10] <aoupi> cafuego_: yes of course
[01:10] <kitsuneofdoom> Ok. My hard drive was wiped, and I want to put LVM on my Ubuntu system. How would I go about installing Ubuntu with LVM support
[01:10] <cafuego_> MindFreak: Tell the php module to not parse files ending in .php
[01:10] <Znarken> How i shutdown "x"?
[01:10] <Slart> sn00p|: hmm.. didn't find anything after a quick glance and doing some googling suggests that gftp doesn't support SSL without external software
[01:10] <genben> i used the howto from rene mayrhofer and he said if the usbstick is smaller than 2GB, to use fat16
[01:10] <MindFreak> well some of my sites have PHP Code in them, so they need to be .PHP, but it was more convenience to keep it organized
[01:10] <linux_kid> ikonia: it has its purposes to end files in php
[01:10] <aoupi> Znarken: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[01:10] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: Pick 'LVM" when the installer asks how to partition the system,
[01:10] <Znarken> tried that....
[01:10] <ikonia> kitsuneofdoom: select the advanced istall options
[01:10] <LinTux> How can I get the flash plugin working in firefox, I am running x64 Bit
[01:11] <ikonia> linux_kid: educate me
[01:11] <sn00p|> Slart, do you know if there is any ftp client for linux that does offer ssl?
[01:11] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: ... or do a manual partition and set up LVM by hand.
[01:11] <kitsuneofdoom> ikonia: just from the normal install disk?
[01:11] <Znarken> the screen just go black and no terminal appears=S
[01:11] <ikonia> LinTux: search for restricted formats in the wiki
[01:11] <ikonia> kitsuneofdoom: yes
[01:11] <twb> I am building customized bootable CDs based on the Edgy desktop live CD.  I find that gdm no longer starts up correctly; complaining about "the greeter application appears to be crashing."  Is anyone intersted in helping me isolate the fault?
[01:11] <aoupi> sn00p|: kasablanca and gftp supports ftps
[01:11] <kitsuneofdoom> ikonia: thanks
[01:11] <notme> kitusneofdoom great name
[01:11] <mnoir> linux_kid: yeah - that way the pure html files can load slowly since they need to be parsed
[01:11] <ikonia> twb: config issues
[01:11] <sn00p|> aoupi, how do you configure gftp for ssl?
[01:11] <LinTux> ikonia: Cheers
[01:11] <Slart> sn00p|: ftp-ssl says it does.. haven't used it though
[01:11] <JosefK> MindFreak, you could put together a sed to strip all the PHP instructions from your code, then rename the file to .html
[01:11] <aoupi> sn00p|: one sec I'll have a look
[01:12] <JosefK> MindFreak, you may not get the output you want though...
[01:12] <genben> kitche: this is what i used => http://www.mayrhofer.eu.org/Default.aspx?pageindex=7&pageid=45
[01:12] <MindFreak> I guess if nothing else works I can rename them all, but I though there would be an easier way
[01:12] <twb> ikonia: I suspect that my modified casper package (which includes code from Debian's casper) is tweaking a GDM setting that is broken in Ubuntu but not Debian.
[01:13] <ikonia> twb possible
[01:13] <MindFreak> why wouldnt changing the MIME TYPE help?
[01:13] <ikonia> look at the logs
[01:13] <linux_kid> ikonia: back in the summer when i did web design, i wanted to put a news section on a site with a script like <php> ? !txt file.txt </php> or somthing like that, and it only works if the extension is php
[01:13] <twb> ikonia: what logs?
[01:13] <aoupi> sn00p|: hmm I can't see how to do it, maybe I was thinking of sftp, but I know kasablanca supports ftps
[01:13] <mnoir> MindFreak: there prolly is but it is very uncommon to want to do this
[01:13] <cmt^^> someone wanna help me getting tv-out working properly with an ati radeon x700, vlc 0.8.6 and ubuntu edgy?
[01:13] <Valmarko> what are gtk2 engines ?
[01:13] <ikonia> linux_kid: yes - of couse, but if you put just html into a .php file - whats the point as there is no php to execute
[01:13] <sn00p|> aoupi, sftp offer gui?
[01:13] <MindFreak> ALL: thanks, I will keep exploring
[01:13] <ikonia> cmt^^: thats going ot be a real fight
[01:14] <cmt^^> ikonia - I know :<
[01:14] <Valmarko> !gtk
[01:14] <ubotu> GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of Gnome and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI
[01:14] <bruenig> shouldn't it be gimptk
[01:14] <cmt^^> I get tv-out working (sort of) with vlc -V x11, but then it forces ascii-art video rendering
[01:14] <aoupi> sn00p|: sftp is file-transfer over ssh, you want a client that supports SSL and ftp, kasablanca does that, if you want to transfer over sftp gftp supports sftp
[01:14] <sn00p|> aoupi, i dont use kde tho
[01:14] <linux_kid> ikonia: im not that much into complex coding (2 me thats everything but html:) ) and just found a tutorial that said to do that
[01:14] <milaks> If I install (K)ubuntu for amd64 will I also have in repositry most or all applications compiled  for A64 (KDE, Gnome, Sylpheed...)?
[01:15] <milaks> I'm currently using (k)ubuntu for i386
[01:15] <cafuego_> milaks: Yes, but do note that flash, java and video may not work.
[01:15] <ikonia> milaks: everything will be built for amd64
[01:15] <aoupi> sn00p|: me neither... but I Installed kasablanca just for ftps, you could use lftp but there is no gui for it
[01:15] <JosefK> milaks, yes, most things, realplayer, zsnes and flash being some of the exceptions
[01:15] <bruenig> milaks, yes you will but there will be some apps unavailable because they haven't been ported to 64 bit but the ones you download from the repos will be already compiled for your arch
[01:15] <Valmarko> where can I get kubuntu (latest version)?
[01:15] <aleka> I had a problem with Skype droping my microphone after 2 minutes.... I just installed Gizmo to see if it is a problem with my mic or if it was just a Skype issue.. My question is.. Does Gizmo have a testing call center?? How can I check my Mic works with Gizmo?
[01:16] <black_13> does the ubuntu install contain ndisloader
[01:16] <mnoir> !kubuntu | Valmarko
[01:16] <ubotu> Valmarko: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[01:16] <Slart> sn00p|: oh.. gftp does support it.. just look at top right corner.. you can select connection type
[01:16] <ikonia> black_13: I don't think so
[01:16] <kitche> black_13: it has ndiswrapper
[01:16] <ikonia> I stand corrected
[01:16] <milaks> If I would'nt have realplayer and java (which is essential to me) will I be inable to download and install 32-bit version from repository?
[01:16] <ikonia> milaks: its quite long winded
[01:17] <sn00p|> Slart, is it fsp?
[01:17] <milaks> ikonia: ?
[01:17] <bruenig> milaks, not sure of from the repo, you could do it manually and there are some howtos on the forums to do so, java and flash at least, not sure about realplayer
[01:17] <aoupi> Slart: do you have ftps there in gftp?
[01:17] <ikonia> milaks: do you have a reason to want 64bit
[01:17] <Slart> sn00p|: fsp and ssh2
[01:17] <sn00p|> ok
[01:17] <black_13> ndiswrapper is the library/prog that allows you to use drivers made for windows (win32)
[01:17] <ikonia> milaks: to install 32bit apps on a 64bit platform is long winded
[01:17] <notme> aleka: did you want to try that?
[01:17] <Slart> sn00p|: you might have to tell where the ssh executable is located.. but apart from that it looks doable
[01:17] <milaks> ikonia: yes, I want to speed up system a little, it's a lot slower that windows xp
[01:17] <LinTux> Ikonia: how can I download and install the 32-Bit firefox in x64 as when I go to their site it makes me download the 64-Bit version?
[01:18] <bruenig> long-winded seems like bad terminology
[01:18] <ikonia> milaks: 64bit install won't speed it up to the naked eye
[01:18] <aleka> notme I was asking for your username in a private window.. you never responded
[01:18] <milaks> ikonia: but Athlon 64 should work wiht 32bit apps witout problems, right?
[01:18] <aoupi> Slart: he wants ftps (ftp + SSL)
[01:18] <notme> I did but my nic is not registered
[01:18] <ikonia> milaks: the cpu does - the OS doesn't
[01:18] <sn00p|> Slart, does work that well.
[01:18] <xorg62> you say if i can install KDE on UBUNTU?
[01:18] <ikonia> LinTux: look at the wiki page
[01:18] <cmt^^> milaks - i'm using an athlon 64 with ubuntu 32 bit
[01:18] <kitche> milaks: your system will be double the size
[01:18] <sn00p|> I got kasablanca to work
[01:18] <sn00p|> thanks tho
[01:18] <jrib> !kde | xorg62
[01:18] <ubotu> xorg62: KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[01:18] <milaks> Same
[01:19] <ikonia> milaks: 32bit on x86_64 is fine
[01:19] <xorg62> thank
[01:19] <Slart> aoupi: oh..I thought he said ssh... or.. didn't he?..
[01:19] <notme> aleka I typed a bunch i didnt realize you couldnt see it. I will register it. one sec
[01:19] <milaks> if that wont seep up the system than I dont know what else to do about that
[01:19] <elyon> I can't create a folder in my /media/ directory, mnoir
[01:19] <ikonia> 32bit on ubuntu x86_^4 is tough
[01:19] <xorg62> thank you
[01:19] <aleka> notme: join #notme so I can pickout your username in there and head back here
[01:19] <aoupi> Slart: briefly :)
[01:19] <jrib> elyon: how are you tryign to create one?
[01:19] <ikonia> milaks: what are you finding slow
[01:19] <milaks> My Ubunutu system is roughly three or four times slower than windows xp on other partition
[01:19] <cafuego_> milaks: Yep, I run a 32bit system on my amd64. I've found too much stuff that I need or want doesn't work right on 64bit (yet).
[01:19] <Slart> aoupi: my bad then =/
[01:19] <elyon> jrib:  within gnome.  I assume now I should be root?
[01:20] <jrib> elyon: yep, use sudo.  For example,  sudo mkdir /media/foobar
[01:20] <elyon> gotcha... thanks, jrib
[01:21] <liam_> hello?
[01:21] <milaks> ikonia: Starting up (althoug I do not start some big services like mysql or apache), programs (kmail, amarok for exmaple) starting, and program reactions (but this last one is not too significant).
[01:21] <liam_> how come i cannot get into options on firefoz in ubuntu
[01:21] <elyon> Oh great... yet ANOTHER problem.  Now my Drives are not mounting.  My hard drive, yes... but my digital camera, card reader, cd-roms, mp3 player... none of those are working.  They are LISTED, but I can't mount them.  Any ideas?
[01:21] <liam_> i want to set the home page
[01:22] <ikonia> milaks: what video card do you have and how much ram do you have
[01:22] <jrib> liam_: what ahppens when you go to the "edit" > "preferences" menu?
[01:22] <linux_kid> liam_ unless u have a lot of bookmarks, do a reinstall of package "firefox" in synaptic
[01:22] <liam_> shutup
[01:22] <liam_> sorry dude im such a windows user
[01:22] <ikonia> liam_: that was uncalled for
[01:22] <milaks> ikonia: I find almost every program starting too slow. I have AMD Athlon 3000+, 2 GB of RAM and PCI Nvidia card with 128 MB on it
[01:22] <liam_> i was jokin mate
[01:22] <liam_> sorry
[01:22] <cwillu> My desktop just crashed;  I really don't want to reboot this machine (has a couple services running that'll disrupt others).  When I log into the desktop, I just get a blank (but coloured) screen, although I hear the ubuntu login sound.
[01:23] <xorg62> and gnome always will go?
[01:23] <milaks> ikonia: PCI-E video card, sorry
[01:23] <ikonia> milaks: what video card driver are you using in xorg
[01:23] <doofy> how do you make beryl start up with xgl... i can get it to work, but i would like beryl-manager to start when i log in
[01:23] <JosefK> cwillu, no luck with Ctl+Alt+Backspace?
[01:23] <milaks> ikonia: Nvidia's
[01:23] <ikonia> milaks: the "perception" of slow is often caused by the wrong video card driver
[01:23] <ikonia> milaks: nvidia - or nv
[01:23] <cwillu> JosefK: nope
[01:23] <milaks> ikonia: from repository: nvidia-glx
[01:23] <cwillu> JosefK: it restarts the x server, I log in, but I log into the same problem
[01:23] <ikonia> doofy: /join #ubuntu-xgl - great support there
[01:23] <ikonia> milaks: wow - thats a surprise
[01:23] <jrib> doofy: I just add beryl-manager in system > prefernces > sessions
[01:23] <milaks> ikonia: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf it its "nvidia"
[01:23] <cwillu> I can log in via the failsafe terminal, but not failsafe gnome.  I can then launch metacity fine, but gnome-session manager just plays the music and hangs
[01:23] <ikonia> I thought I had an easy fix for you then
[01:23] <JosefK> cwillu, I think it's time to notify people of some impending downtime :)
[01:24] <cwillu> JosefK: I'm typing this from gaim on the same machine
[01:24] <cwillu> JosefK: I just can't get the desktop to come up
[01:24] <ikonia> milaks: ubuntu flies on every box I've got it on, even ones lower spec'ed than yours
[01:24] <ikonia> there must be a config error somewhere
[01:24] <milaks> ikonia: look, it is now toooooo slow, but it is significantly slower (three of four times) in every aspect than Windows XP
[01:24] <JosefK> cwillu, oh, I think I know what you mean - by desktop you mean icons?
[01:24] <JosefK> cwillu, 'killall nautilus'
[01:25] <ikonia> milaks: I find that hard to see, simpley because of my own experience
[01:25] <cwillu> JosefK: or gnome-panel's, etc
[01:25] <dm_> Is there anyway to run a KDE app in GTK mode ( running KDE app, with the looks and feel of gnome...
[01:25] <ikonia> (I'm not saying your wrong)
[01:25] <ikonia> dm_: no
[01:25] <cwillu> killall nautilus:  no process killed
[01:25] <liam_> sorry again folks, but can sum1 help me get superkaramba? i have tried the apt get and search but find nothing!
[01:25] <ikonia> dm_: kde uses qt
[01:25] <mnoir> dm_: that is exactly impossible
[01:25] <ikonia> liam_: apt-cache search superkarmaba
[01:25] <dm_> ikonia was afraid of that, i hate kde.
[01:25] <ikonia> dm_: why did you installl it then
[01:26] <JosefK> cwillu, ah :/ killall gnome-panel I guess, anything that looks like it's hung
[01:26] <dm_> ikonia i didnt, i am running kbluetoothd for connectivity for my mouse and my cell phones FTP
[01:26] <ikonia> dm_: why not just run the gnome equiv
[01:26] <mnoir> dm_: you can however, run kde-based apps in gnome.  they will just look the same
[01:26] <ikonia> it has a bluetooth manager
[01:27] <dm_> ikonia there is none that i know off, not with a daemon
[01:27] <dm_> mnoir i know
[01:27] <mnoir> kbluetoothd will run in gnome
[01:27] <ikonia> dm_: there is - can't think of it off the top of my head
[01:27] <dm_> mnoir i know this, im running it, but i hate the fact it looks like KDE stuff and runs it in konq
[01:28] <milaks> ikonia: but it is like that. For instance: Windows XP completes starting up in about ~20 secs, and Ubuntu completes starting up in about ~1.5 min.
[01:28] <cwillu> JosefK:   looks like this was the culprit:  /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconfd-2
[01:28] <ikonia> milaks: something is wrong with your install
[01:28] <ikonia> even on my laptop its about 30 seconds
[01:28] <JosefK> milaks, maybe add 'noapic' 'nolapic' to your kopt?
[01:28] <dm_> milaks have you tried turning off some stuff that runs at boot up ? like printer support and stuff?
[01:28] <cwillu> thanks!
[01:28] <JosefK> cwillu, heh, n1 tracking that down
[01:28] <liam_> thanks ikonia much help and appreciated :D
[01:28] <ikonia> liam_: welcome
[01:28] <NexusL> oye, ok perhaps someone could assist me with a minor installation issue with 6.10 on a Inspiron 6400
[01:29] <notme> !lamp
[01:29] <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+)
[01:29] <milaks> ikonia: Outlook Express, TheBat or Outlook start in at most 5 sec. while kamail takes about 10-15 secs.
[01:29] <elyon> Could someone help me get my MP3 player and card reader working again?  They worked earlier today, but now they can't be mounted for some reason.
[01:29] <linux_kid> milaks: just reinstall
[01:29] <ikonia> milaks: sub 2 second here on a much slower laptop
[01:29] <cmt^^> http://pastebin.se/5385 <- the error i get when using vlc -V x11, how do I fix it?
[01:29] <milaks> JosefK: noapic to kopt?
[01:29] <Slart> is there a vnc viewer version that supports zoom?
[01:30] <linux_kid> elyon: what have you changed on your comp today?
[01:30] <milaks> dm_: I've already turned off some services but still with no significant impovement
[01:30] <NexusL> i seem to be getting a error i have never ran into before during the first few seconds of setup error is "BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0!" any ideas?
[01:30] <Rprp> Hmm, i downloaded and installed a sec ago a new login screen, but still its not in the list, where can i find the new login screen!?!?
[01:30] <elyon> linux_kid:  Had problems getting gparted installed... that's all I can think of.
[01:30] <dm_> milaks what kind of system you running?
[01:30] <milaks> ikonia: ?
[01:30] <Valmarko> what is a gtk2 engine ?
[01:30] <JosefK> milaks, in the grub menu, add 'noapic nolapic' to the end of the options for a test, see if that can speed it up
[01:30] <bianconeri> Guys I have a Harddisk panic...I mistakenly formatted my 200GB drive...is there any way I could retrieve it??!!!! Thanks in advance
[01:30] <dm_> milaks are you running beryl ? and what is in your session on start up commands
[01:30] <ikonia> milaks: pardon ?
[01:30] <kitche> Valmarko: lets you use a theme that is gtk2
[01:30] <milaks> dm_: Athlon 3000+ and 2GB of RAM
[01:30] <dm_> milaks im not an amd user, english please
[01:31] <linux_kid> elyon: well, gparted messes with discs, so i say do a complete removal of it.  if you need it, use the live cd
[01:31] <Valmarko> but, after I install such theme, where can I activate it ?
[01:31] <kalyugi> hi guys
[01:31] <dm_> milaks whats the ghz on your cpu iow
[01:31] <kalyugi> has anyone tried using the at command with btdownloadcurses
[01:31] <kitche> Valmarko: same spot where you active the others
[01:31] <dm_> Valmarko gnome?
[01:31] <Valmarko> yes
[01:31] <liam_> The following packages have unmet dependencies.
[01:31] <liam_>   amsn: Depends: imlib11 but it is not going to be installed
[01:31] <liam_>         Depends: sox but it is not going to be installed
[01:31] <milaks> dm_: CPU AMD Athlon 64 3000+ (1.8Ghz)
[01:31] <kalyugi> i cant get the at command to schedule btdownloadcurses
[01:31] <kalyugi> im trying to schedule a download
[01:31] <liam_> its says that when i try and install amsn :s
[01:32] <dm_> milaks running the 64 bit kernel correct?
[01:32] <bianconeri> Is anybody here able to help??
[01:32] <milaks> JosefK: to add both  'noapic' and 'nolapic' at the end of the line.
[01:32] <ikonia> brianMan: ask
[01:32] <cafuego_> bianconeri: There is a tool that might be able to help you out, but I can't rememebr its name.
[01:32] <milaks> dm_: No it's "usual" Ubuntu i386 Edgy Eft system
[01:32] <brianMan> ikonia?
[01:32] <Valmarko> for example , theres a gtk2 engine for theme called wonderland. If I install it, you're saying that I just have to open themes manager?
[01:33] <dm_> milaks  that could be a problem then
[01:33] <milaks> ikonia: <ikonia> milaks: sub 2 second here on a much slower lapto> ?
[01:33] <ikonia> bianconeri: ask the question
[01:33] <kitche> ikonia: he did
[01:33] <ikonia> brianMan: sorr - typo
[01:33] <elyon> linux_kid:  Synaptic says its not even installed and running apt-get remove gparted will remove a LOT of software
[01:33] <ikonia> I missed it
[01:33] <brianMan> k
[01:33] <dm_> milaks u are not taking advantage of the 64 bit processor, now let me ask you this is the windows version 20 second bootup a 64 bit os?
[01:33] <ikonia> I thought it was brian man
[01:33] <kitche> bianconeri: try the systemrescuecd
[01:33] <bianconeri> I have a Harddisk panic...I mistakenly formatted my 200GB drive...is there any way I could retrieve it??!!!!
[01:33] <JosefK> milaks, the only time I've seen lagging like that was on a machine with an old board that needed to have 'noapic nolapic'
[01:33] <ikonia> the screen scrolled too quick
[01:33] <linux_kid> elyon: well, somthing IS skrewed with gparted then
[01:34] <milaks> dm_: well that is waht we are talking about, should I install version for AMD 64, but peopke say that they dont have problems with ubuntu i386 on Amd 64, and still some apps wouldnt work
[01:34] <ikonia> bianconeri: how did you format it
[01:34] <liam_> anyone know what the problem with this is?
[01:34] <liam_> The following packages have unmet dependencies.
[01:34] <liam_>   amsn: Depends: imlib11 but it is not going to be installed
[01:34] <liam_>         Depends: sox but it is not going to be installed
[01:34] <linux_kid> i say try to install gparted in terminal
[01:34] <bianconeri> qtparted
[01:34] <dm_> milaks personally, i would, no point in not doing it, its a simple install with ubuntu,
[01:34] <ikonia> liam_: what command have you done
[01:34] <ikonia> bianconeri: did you save the partition table ?
[01:34] <liam_> sudo apt-get install amsn
[01:34] <dm_> milaks is the windows u were running, a 64 bit OS?
[01:35] <jrib> liam_: pastebin the result of "apt-cache policy amsn" and the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list please
[01:35] <jrib> !pastebin | liam_
[01:35] <milaks> dm_: Windows XP takes about 20 secs to completly boot up
[01:35] <ubotu> liam_: 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)
[01:35] <ikonia> liam_: does it say why they won't be installed - eg: are they in the repos you want
[01:35] <bianconeri> no I didn't I thought it was the thumb drive!!
[01:35] <dm_> milaks but is it 64 bit windows
[01:35] <cafuego_> bianconeri: Maybe try 'testdisk' (but DO NOT under any circumstance write to the disk until after recovery :-)
[01:35] <ikonia> ahh so you've not saved the partition table, you should be able to recover
[01:35] <elyon> linux_kid:  I can RUN gparted, though.. but when I do, it just says "Scanning all devices" and hangs with that.
[01:35] <milaks> dm_: I have one ADSL modem that is a little pesky to isntall again (besides other stuff).
[01:35] <liam_> Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
[01:35] <liam_> the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
[01:35] <liam_> that package should be filed.
[01:35] <elyon> xtknight:  You there?
[01:35] <milaks> dm_: no it is Windows XP for 32-bit processors
[01:35] <ikonia> liam_: bug report it up
[01:36] <liam_> ...:s
[01:36] <bianconeri> I already wrote to it around 600 mb ....again thinking it was the thumb drive!!
[01:36] <ikonia> liam_: try installing the deps manually
[01:36] <Skrot_> Hi. I'm running a custom kernel with a custom compile of ipw3945-drivers. If I install a linux-image, lets say linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic, will it include the ipw3945 shipped by ubuntu?
[01:36] <ikonia> apt-get install $dep-name
[01:36] <milaks> dm_: It is Windows XP 32-bit
[01:36] <dm_> milaks hmm, weird, my linux takes not as long as vista takes to boot, but im running dual core intel laptop with a 667mhz FSB and mem the smae speed
[01:36] <linux_kid> elyon: can you do an install in synaptic?
[01:36] <ikonia> Skrot_: yes
[01:36] <elyon> linux_kid:  I tried that and it appeared to be successful.
[01:36] <aN1> hi can someone plz explain the diff between mount -t proc none & mount -t proc proc?
[01:37] <cafuego_> bianconeri: Then most likely you have no chance of recovering anything, but give it a try anyway...
[01:37] <ikonia> Skrot_: well - if you install the ipw945 package it will
[01:37] <elyon> linux_kid:  But running gparted after that just does the same thing.
[01:37] <milaks> Here one more example: In windows FireFox starts almost instantaneously, while in Linux it takes about 20 secs.
[01:37] <liam_> how do i install them manually?
[01:37] <dm_> milaks thats a pretty decent cpu you have, have you tried "Boot up manager " BUM
[01:37] <shpond> ok
[01:37] <Skrot_> ikonia: I see. apt-cache search ipw3945 did not reveal any package for that
[01:37] <ikonia> cafuego if he's not saved the partition table - won't he be ok to just save
[01:37] <JosefK> milaks, I'm pretty sure you need to look at some special boot options for your system
[01:37] <bianconeri> :O....
[01:37] <ikonia> Skrot_: think its under ipw2000
[01:37] <ikonia> or something
[01:37] <cafuego_> ikonia: He's already written to the disk
[01:37] <milaks> dm_: Yes, I have. It is there where I deselect CUPS for example.
[01:37] <bianconeri> really? Because I wrote on it...I lost everything??
[01:37] <ikonia> liam_: same way as amsn - but replace amsn with the dep package name
[01:38] <dm_> milaks, edgy eft?
[01:38] <kalyugi> this has to be the most helpful channel
[01:38] <kalyugi> NOT
[01:38] <ikonia> cafuego- I missed that part - sorry
[01:38] <milaks> JosefK: any more advices as to where should I look for that ?
[01:38] <ikonia> kalyugi: whats up - and whats with the attitude
[01:38] <milaks> dm_: yes
[01:38] <linux_kid> elyon: welllllllllll i say this: can u find the card reader and digi camera in device manager?
[01:38] <milaks> dm_:  up to date
[01:38] <kalyugi> the attitude is a result of the experience
[01:38] <kalyugi> i have had
[01:38] <JosefK> milaks, google your PC make, or just try 'noapic nolapic' as suggested
[01:38] <Rancho> CUANTA GENTE HAY EN ESTE CANAL????
[01:38] <jrib> !es | Rancho
[01:38] <cmt^^> how do I change the resolution for my tv to not show only parts of the desktop (when playing movies and such)
[01:38] <ubotu> Rancho: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[01:38] <ikonia> kalyugi: why has it been bad
[01:38] <ikonia> and whats the problem
[01:38] <dm_> milaks i have seen some users complain about long boot up times, its not a huge deal, but its annoying at most, it might be a bug in the kernel not yet fixed
[01:39] <kalyugi> ive come to this channel like on 6 different times mate
[01:39] <Rancho> q pasa jrib ??
[01:39] <Rancho> no entiendo?!
[01:39] <ikonia> dm_: a common part is the mod probe for certin drivers
[01:39] <elyon> linux_kid:  yes.
[01:39] <kalyugi> and have never got an acknowledgment to a single question
[01:39] <AaronfromChina> Ubuntu 6.06 is LTS (long term support), how about 6.10 ?
[01:39] <milaks> JosefK: I'll try adding  'noapic nolapic'  for sure, thanks, I thought that there may be some HOWTO or something like that about this topic...
[01:39] <kalyugi> not even a "i dont know"
[01:39] <liam_> how do i find the dep package name?
[01:39] <jrib> AaronfromChina: 6.10 is not LTS
[01:39] <squeaks> i downloaded an .orig.tar.gz, .diff.gz, and .dsc files for a package not yet in the unstable repository, i can't seem to find any information on how to compile (?) these into a .deb or something, can anyone point me to the right information?
[01:39] <Agrajag> no hablamos espanol aqui, Rancho
[01:39] <JosefK> milaks, there probably is somewhere, two secs
[01:39] <dm_> ikonia i think i was reading something about that..
[01:39] <elyon> linux_kid:  And I can see them in /media/, but can't mount them.
[01:39] <ikonia> kalyugi: if people don't know they don't say or there would be loads of people saying "I don't know all the time"
[01:39] <Rancho> okok!!!
[01:39] <linux_kid> elyon : ok, so we messed with some auto-mounting script
[01:39] <kalyugi> fair enuf
[01:39] <ikonia> kalyugi: whats the question
[01:40] <jrib> liam_: it tells you, for example sox.   But please pastebin the info I asked about before
[01:40] <aztek> Is there a way to set a console to run a program after a period of inactivity? Not logout, but actually launch a program.
[01:40] <linux_kid> in /media/ can you access them?
[01:40] <kalyugi> btdownloadcurses and the at command
[01:40] <JosefK> milaks, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[01:40] <elyon> linux_kid:  No.  When I try, it says it could not be mounted.
[01:40] <ikonia> kalyugi: what about it
[01:40] <kalyugi> im trying to schedule btdownloadcurses to download a torrent at a specific time'
[01:40] <ikonia> ok
[01:40] <ikonia> and......
[01:40] <milaks> dm_: Honestly, I do not think it's a bug in kernel, also it's not only booting up slow, apps are also, not slow, but much slower than on Windows XP
[01:40] <liam_> amsn:
[01:40] <liam_>   Installed: (none)
[01:40] <liam_>   Candidate: 0.95-1
[01:40] <liam_>   Version table:
[01:40] <liam_>      0.95-1 0
[01:40] <linux_kid> elyon: what fs is on the card you are trying to read?
[01:40] <liam_>         500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com dapper/universe Packages
[01:40] <kalyugi> and i cant get it to run and display the poutput to /dev/pts/1
[01:40] <ikonia> milaks: thats the part thats frustrating
[01:41] <dm_> liam use paste bin pls
[01:41] <elyon> linux_kid:  I have no idea... I've never needed to know
[01:41] <jrib> liam_: not here, use pastebin
[01:41] <liam_> ok sorry

[01:41] <ikonia> kalyugi: what is the command your using
[01:41] <dm_> milaks my best suggestion, install the 64 bit kernel. sorry i cant help more
[01:41] <kalyugi> at now
[01:41] <liam_> uve seen it now though right?
[01:41] <milaks> JosefK: Thanks for the address, I'll look inot it.
[01:41] <linux_kid> elyon: do you have M$ windows
[01:41] <ikonia> kalyugi: stick the full command in a pastebin
[01:41] <jrib> liam_: yes, now the other thing too
[01:41] <toM|vendettA> Hi, I am running Ubuntu Edgy Eft, and I am trying to get a certain effect from a How-To on ubuntuforums.org, but the instructions are so vague. Can anyone help me out on telling me what to do? The link is at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=241868
[01:41] <ikonia> lets take a look

[01:41] <liam_> what other thing?
[01:41] <milaks> dm_: Ok, thanks for the effor.
[01:41] <elyon> linux_kid:  Sadly, yes.
[01:42] <ikonia> kalyugi: EOT ?
[01:42] <kalyugi> end of time
[01:42] <kalyugi> ctrl d
[01:42] <jrib> liam_: /etc/apt/sources.list, it's a text file, so you can run 'gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[01:42] <Rprp> Hmm, i downloaded and installed a sec ago a new login screen, but still its not in the list, where can i find the new login screen!?!?
[01:42] <dm_> toM|Vendetta i would first go get an easier name to type
[01:42] <linux_kid> elyon: me too, but could you boot windows and checks the fs's, and then do a disc check?
[01:42] <ikonia> kalyugi: can you show me the full command youre using in a pastebin please
[01:42] <tommyv> better dm_ ?
[01:42] <kalyugi> pastebin

[01:43] <dm_> tommyv thanks, now what were you trying to do with this link?
[01:43] <elyon> linux_kid:  I doubt that's the problem, though.  Because all three devices (digital cam, card reader, and mp3 player) WORKED earlier today... and now all three are down at the same time?

[01:44] <Rprp> :<
[01:44] <liam_> http://wwww.pastebin.com/85144
[01:44] <linux_kid> elyon: ok, were they plugged in at any time when you started gparted or had gparted running?
[01:44] <tommyv> dm_: I am trying to install the mac-menu bar but the instructions are so vague and I am a relative newbie
[01:44] <squeaks> n't seem to find any information on how to compile (?) these into a .deb or something, i guessed dpkg-source -x and it built a directory of the source, is this right?
[01:44] <kalyugi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/505/
[01:44] <squeaks> woops sorry guys
[01:44] <elyon> linux_kid:  Just the card reader... the others were not.
[01:44] <dm_> tommyv let me take a min to look at them,
[01:44] <tonyyarusso> Rprp: That's what the ADD button is for
[01:44] <kalyugi> the at command simply exits out without displaying anything
[01:45] <linux_kid> elyon: do you have a usb flashdrive?
[01:45] <dm_> tommyv are you running windows or KDE
[01:45] <ikonia> kalyugi: you can't do that
[01:45] <Rprp> tonyyarusso: i did add it ...
[01:45] <dm_> tommyv err GNOME or KDE
[01:45] <kalyugi> what ??
[01:45] <tommyv> dm_: gnome
[01:45] <elyon> linux_kid:  No.
[01:45] <CyberSlug> Is it possible to set a proxy in linux/ubuntu that will dynamically allocate bandwidths, so that if one member downloads on network, the internet will remain useful for everyone else?
[01:45] <linux_kid> ikonia: are you good with usb storage devices?
[01:45] <ikonia> I can try
[01:45] <liam_> jrib ... http://wwww.pastebin.com/85144
[01:45] <tommyv> dm_: i understand that the feature I am trying to get is available natively on KDE, but I prefer gnome.
[01:46] <dm_> tommyv ewwwwww this is a messy hack, you have to patch the kernel, which is well beyond what you should be doing right now, and i cant suggest how, because i myself dont knowhow to do it
[01:46] <ikonia> kalyugi: you can't type "crtl + d"
[01:46] <kalyugi> sorry ikonia..what cant i do??
[01:46] <dm_> tommyv what feature?
[01:46] <ikonia> and puting the output like that isn't great
[01:46] <jrib> liam_: apt-cache policy sox
[01:46] <kalyugi> ctrl+d is EOT for the at command
[01:46] <Peebo> OLS - Date format change: Edit /etc/environment LANG="en_GB.UTF-8" is DDMMYYYY LANG="en_US.UTF-8" is MMDDYYYY LANG="en_DK.UTF-8" YYYYMMDD
[01:46] <Peebo> OLS = One Line Solution
[01:46] <ikonia> ahh so you're pressing crtl +d I thought you where scripting it
[01:46] <ikonia> my mistake
[01:46] <tommyv> dm_: to make menu bars like on mac os x, where File Edit View and stuff like that is at the top menu bar
[01:46] <[Ithaycu1> Hello
[01:46] <kalyugi> otherwise the at command wont execute
[01:47] <kalyugi> yep
[01:47] <[Ithaycu1> Am I the only one getting 404 errors from the repo's?
[01:47] <kalyugi> im pressing ctrl d
[01:47] <linux_kid> elyon: would you die if you reinstall ubuntu (im not saying to do that yet)
[01:47] <Music_Shuffle> Yes. I would die if he reinstalled it.
[01:47] <dm_> tommyv whisper ... Gnome is better, but dont let the KDE guys know :P
[01:47] <kalyugi> thers something basic im missing, interms of how the at command exits
[01:48] <elyon> linux_kid:  Die?  Me?  No.  But it has taken me almost 2 weeks go get it setup so that everything is working well.  And my family uses this too...
[01:48] <joshual> anyone install e17 via cvs recently? i'm going through hell trying to... is there a really good step by step for ubuntu users?
[01:48] <liam_> http://pastebin.com/851448
[01:48] <kitche> kalyugi: why not just use a cronjob?
[01:48] <dm_> tommyv hmm well to me it looks like those are only graphical and menu bar hacks, not a mac guy. but meh.
[01:48] <ikonia> kalyugi: just tired your command - worked fine for me
[01:48] <kalyugi> tried that as well
[01:48] <ikonia> whats the proble you're seeing
[01:48] <kalyugi> the basic disadvantage being this is a one off job
[01:49] <linux_kid> elyon: im gonna play around with solutions for a little, ill be back in five
[01:49] <kalyugi> so you can see the btdownload screen
[01:49] <ikonia> problem you're seeing
[01:49] <tommyv> dm_: It is a really cool feature, one of mac os x's best, and I really want to find a way to get this hack working :-P
[01:49] <kalyugi> with progress stats
[01:49] <ikonia> kalyugi: no - as you didn't give it an argument
[01:49] <dm_> tommyv what i got from it, is google gtk2 source( should be a download) , cd to the file, do patch ( he has the code to do it there ) and i dont know how to update the kernal and compile, : /
[01:49] <aleka> Where would Kxdocker be in the Apps menu if I installed it using apt-get??
[01:49] <jrib> liam_: you're missing dapper main from your sources
[01:49] <kalyugi> no i did ..oops i dint put in there
[01:49] <ikonia> linux_kid: did you ask a question I didn't see it
[01:49] <kalyugi> the arg i gave is --responsefile ./<foor>.torrent
[01:50] <tommyv> dm_: i can download the source, and cd to the file, but i didnt know how to do the patch
[01:50] <freshburn> ok its finally installed thanks all for you help and putting up with me
[01:50] <tonyyarusso> Rprp: was it a valid file?
[01:50] <Rprp> uuh,, yes
[01:50] <dm_> tommyv patch -p0 < path/to/file
[01:50] <Rprp> its tar.gx
[01:50] <Rprp> .gz
[01:50] <Rprp> *
[01:50] <freshburn> so now i have daper drake, what are the reasons to upgrade to edgy? is there a comparison site?
[01:50] <Gun_Smoke> Can someone see if they can reproduce this problem I seem to be having.. Open OpenOffice Writer.. Then File>Wizards>Letter   Will it open for you?
[01:50] <linux_kid> ikonia: if your not busy, do you know how to set it so usb devices mount?\
[01:50] <heapme> is it safe to take the ubuntu livecd out of the drive while it's running X. will it still run?
[01:50] <tommyv> okay, thanks dm_, i will give it a shot.
[01:50] <Rprp> Anyway... it was a theme,, thats correct, right
[01:50] <liam_> how do i get dapper main then
[01:50] <jrib> !repos > liam_
[01:50] <ikonia> linux_kid: 1 second
[01:50] <Faust-C> heapme: no
[01:50] <Music_Shuffle> heapme, uhh....why would you do that?
[01:50] <freshburn> heapme: it locks the drive so it wont eject
[01:50] <kitche> heapme: it locks the drive I believe so you can't unless you load everything into ram
[01:51] <dm_> tommyv but its asking you to recomplie the kernel which is not a novice thing to do.
[01:51] <Music_Shuffle> Lol
[01:51] <heapme> Music_Shuffle:  because i need to burn a dvd with it
[01:51] <ikonia> the at job worked for me
[01:51] <dm_> tommyv like i said i dont know how to do it.
[01:51] <Music_Shuffle> THen get another drive. >_<
[01:51] <ikonia> when I used a test torrent
[01:51] <liam_> ?
[01:51] <freshburn> music: ive also wanted to do this to watch a dvd with the drive
[01:51] <jrib> liam_: easiest would be to just make a new one
[01:51] <heapme> i had to use the livecd to recover my files, by mountin gmy ext3 partition
[01:51] <patbam> hi, i have twice run into an insanely annoying bug where i somehow lose keyboard control; clicking on the mouse button turns the cursor into a plus and then dragging will move whatever window is under the mouse around. i say it's insanely annoying because i have no idea how to get out of the situation, i had to power down my laptop O.o
[01:51] <tommyv> dm_: where does it say to recompile the kernel o.O
[01:51] <liam_> ok
[01:51] <jrib> !easysource | liam_
[01:51] <ubotu> liam_: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[01:51] <Music_Shuffle> Heh
[01:51] <ikonia> linux_kid:  - lets go for it
[01:51] <ikonia> give me a quick run down
[01:51] <ceacro> hello world
[01:51] <Faust-C> whoo ok i feel better
[01:51] <ceacro> I have a questions
[01:51] <Faust-C> laters
[01:51] <tonyyarusso> Rprp: was it for the login manager you're using?
[01:51] <dm_> tommyv hmm musta read that wrong , nm, just a .compile make and install, for the hack
[01:51] <ceacro> it's for gurus
[01:51] <linux_kid> im not the one with the problem, its elyon
[01:52] <ikonia> elyon: can you give me a quick summary
[01:52] <Rprp> tonyyarusso: err.... dunno.... :p
[01:52] <freshburn> patbam: sounds like your alt key is stuck
[01:52] <ceacro> I have a problem with UBUNTU 64
[01:52] <ceacro> 64 bits
[01:52] <freshburn> so now i have daper drake, what are the reasons to upgrade to edgy? is there a comparison site?
[01:52] <ikonia> ceacro: whats the problem
[01:52] <ikonia> freshburn: the reasons are personal to you
[01:52] <kitche> freshburn: updated programs pretty much
[01:52] <ikonia> whats good for me maybe poor for you
[01:52] <patbam> freshburn: hmm
[01:52] <ceacro> I am working well
[01:52] <liam_> now ive made a new one
[01:52] <liam_> how do i put it in
[01:52] <ikonia> ceacro: ask the question
[01:52] <elyon> ikonia:  Certainly.  Earlier today I was able to use my card reader, mp3 player, and digital camera in Linux without a problem.  Now, however, although these devices show up in /media/, they can not be mounted or accessed.
[01:52] <ceacro> but suddently the windows goes blank
[01:52] <kalyugi> ikonia....thankx for yer time mate...
[01:53] <ceacro> or white
[01:53] <kalyugi> doesnt work for me tho
[01:53] <freshburn> are all the devices supported equally with both?
[01:53] <ceacro> and it does not work anything at all
[01:53] <elyon> ikonia:  The only thing I can think of that has changed today that could affect this, is that I had some difficulty getting gparted installed and working (which it still isn't)
[01:53] <jrib> liam_: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list    then delete everything you see and replace it with the new one
[01:53] <BlenderKitty> hey
[01:53] <ikonia> kalyugi: sorry dude, works like a charm, must be something your doing
[01:53] <kalyugi> even with this
[01:53] <ceacro> the system is well installed
[01:53] <BlenderKitty> can anyone see this message?
[01:53] <kalyugi> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/506/
[01:53] <ikonia> elyon: are you sure they are mounted ?
[01:53] <ceacro> ubuntu 64 bits
[01:53] <kitche> freshburn: well edgy has more support probably just a few things but dapper is good to stick with for now
[01:54] <jrib> BlenderKitty: yes
[01:54] <ceacro> I have a ATHLON 64 3000
[01:54] <freshburn> ty
[01:54] <elyon> ikonia:  They aren't.  That's the problem.  They're listed, but when I use file browser to open them, I'm given an error saying that pmount could not be launched on them.
[01:54] <ikonia> kalyugi: just a quick note - you don't have to redirect to /dev/pts/1 - it will go to your controlling console
[01:54] <ceacro> I have proved with suse 10.2
[01:54] <ammiel> how do i install local deb packages?
[01:54] <ceacro> both 32 and 64 bits
[01:54] <bimberi> freshburn: for me yes, for you, highly likely
[01:54] <ceacro> the same thing happes
[01:55] <ikonia> ceacro: sounds like a hardware error
[01:55] <Gun_Smoke> Does OpenOffice have it's own channel?
[01:55] <bimberi> ammiel: double-click on it
[01:55] <kitche> Gun_Smoke: yes on another irc server
[01:55] <freshburn> ok i prefer kde/kubuntu, but my wife loves the games included in ubuntu, so if i apt-get install kubuntu-desktop will it preserve/still run her games? tetravex and orbs
[01:55] <ceacro> but I also have windows xp
[01:55] <liam_> anything else i need to do now jrib?
[01:55] <ceacro> and it works well
[01:55] <ikonia> elyon: take out your devices, put 1 in and tail /var/log/messages and see if someething is said
[01:55] <Gun_Smoke> kitche:  Which>
[01:55] <liam_> it still says the same error
[01:55] <ceacro> as well as MEPIS linuix
[01:55] <jrib> liam_: sudo apt-get update
[01:55] <Gray_Auk> Howdy
[01:55] <liam_> ok
[01:55] <sleepy007> i have a pppoe conf , every time i start the computer i have to do pon dsl-provider , how to fix this ?
[01:55] <kitche> Gun_Smoke: try this one #user.openoffice.org
[01:55] <elyon> ikonia:  Tell me how to tail the message, please?
[01:56] <ammiel> bimberi, can i do it from console? in KDE it opens in archive manager
[01:56] <ikonia> tail -f /var/log/messages
[01:56] <bimberi> sleepy007: add that to /etc/rc.local
[01:56] <dm_> freshburn yes, you are just installing another  desktop environment, you can still run the commands, or create a custom command in your menu to run those games.
[01:56] <bimberi> ammiel: sure: 'sudo dpkg -i file.deb'
[01:56] <sleepy007> sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces  tried this

[02:00] <Atomix> like um, i got azureus from the add/remove programs list
[02:00] <ikonia> got it
[02:00] <Atomix> and downloaded a game with it

[02:00] <sleepy007> linux_kid, reading the wiki , the forum is full of this
[02:00] <ikonia> mount /dev/sdc1 /tmp
[02:00] <Atomix> and now whenever i go into azureus, it shuts within like 3 seconds of opening it
[02:01] <ikonia> sorry sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /tmp
[02:01] <elyon> ikonia:  mount: special device /dev/sdc1 does not exist

[02:03] <tommyv> !kubuntu | tommyv
[02:03] <ubotu> tommyv: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[02:03] <tommyv> !kde
[02:03] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[02:03] <ceacro> mepis is based on ubuntu and debian
[02:03] <sleepy007> linux_kid, someting like yast in suse ?
[02:03] <linux_kid> sleepy007: go to http://www.webmin.com/ and get the .deb pckage
[02:03] <ceacro> the person who has mepis has ubuntu
[02:03] <tommyv> will I be able to use gaim on KDE?
[02:03] <gop> oidentd what is the manual for it
[02:03] <ikonia> but its "not
[02:04] <gop> how does one install it

[02:04] <linux_kid> sleepy007: im not into suse, no clu
[02:04] <gop> !suse
[02:04] <ubotu> Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems)
[02:04] <ceacro> since all the modules and software are 100% compatible
[02:04] <ikonia> I don't think they are
[02:04] <jrib> tommyv: yes
[02:04] <ceacro> very good
[02:04] <elyon> sleepy007:  The Ubuntu equivalent to Yast in SuSe is "Synaptic"
[02:04] <Atomix> need i repeat my problem?
[02:04] <kitche> sleepy007: webmin is aweful actually and can leave your system pretty open actually
[02:04] <Red-Sox> what is the extension for a makefile?
[02:05] <ceacro> who has MEPIS????
[02:05] <kitche> Red-Sox: umm there isn't an extension to a makefile
[02:05] <ceacro> just me????
[02:05] <gop> is thier a reason why I don't get sound from flash video
[02:05] <kaoz> does anyone know why when a game is run with wine the text seems to flake out peridoicaly?
[02:05] <ikonia> ceacro: /join #mephis
[02:05] <SleepySocks> elyon, yes thats the gui package manager
[02:05] <jrib> Red-Sox: it's usually just called Makefile
[02:05] <linux_kid> kitche: i manage my server with webmin
[02:05] <elyon> ceacro:  No one here will have it!
[02:05] <ikonia> this is#ubuntu support
[02:05] <tonyyarusso> ceacro: Wouldn't that be a question for the mepis channel?
[02:05] <Red-Sox> Hrm there aren't any
[02:05] <ceacro> where is it???
[02:05] <ikonia> #mepis ?
[02:05] <gop> !flash | gop

[02:05] <SleepySocks> you can also use apt-get from the command line or aptitude
[02:05] <linux_kid> gop: google it
[02:05] <tonyyarusso> ceacro: what ikonia said most likely
[02:05] <tonyyarusso> or look it up if not
[02:05] <Red-Sox> after ./conigure it says "To build HandBrake, run 'jam'."
[02:05] <Slart> kaoz: why not ask the wine-people.. in #wine-hq
[02:05] <Red-Sox> but jam does nothing
[02:06] <Red-Sox> and make jam doesn't either
[02:06] <sleepy007> rebooting
[02:06] <elyon> ikonia:  Given up on my problem, huh? ;)
[02:06] <ceacro> I cannot find a server called MEPIS
[02:06] <ikonia> elyon: sorry, I missed your response
[02:06] <ikonia> ceacro: its a channel, not a server
[02:06] <jrib> Red-Sox: no output at all?
[02:06] <linux_kid> sleepy007: did u get webmin?
[02:06] <ikonia> like #ubuntu is a channel on freenode
[02:06] <ceacro> where is that channel?
[02:06] <ikonia> on freenode probably
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> ceacro: it's a channel, not a server.  #mepis, on freenode.
[02:06] <ceacro> How can I get there?
[02:06] <elyon> ikonia:  I don't think I responded... the last you said was about my bus being hung.
[02:06] <devkinetic> hello, where can i find out on how to install kde on ubuntu?
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> I just joined it, so I know it exists.
[02:06] <Atomix> I will repeat myself
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> ceacro: /join

[02:06] <jrib> ceacro: /join #mepis
[02:06] <tonyyarusso> same as you got here
[02:07] <Atomix> How do i install anything on ubuntu
[02:07] <ikonia> elyon: yeah, so try fdisk -l on both /dev/hdb and hdc - see if there are any partitions
[02:07] <Red-Sox> jrib: Bash command not found or whatever
[02:07] <ceacro> thanks
[02:07] <jrib> Red-Sox: install jam then
[02:07] <NexusL> ok ubuntu hates me, all ways around
[02:07] <Slart> Atomix: use apt-get or synaptic (in system, administration)
[02:07] <Atomix> i have been to synaptics but i am confused
[02:07] <kitche> Atomix: apt-get is a command line package manager
[02:07] <Slart> Atomix: anything special you're looking to install?
[02:07] <devkinetic> whats the atp-get for kde?
[02:08] <Slart> devkinetic: apt-get? it's not gnome specific
[02:08] <Atomix> like drivers from disks
[02:08] <NexusL> devkinetic: apt-get
[02:08] <jrib> !kde | devkinetic
[02:08] <ubotu> devkinetic: KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[02:08] <Atomix> and stuff
[02:08] <qos> hey guys ...
[02:08] <NexusL> devkinetic: Apt-Get is just a package manager not isolated to a windows manager or GUI
[02:08] <devkinetic> thx jrib
[02:08] <bimberi> devkinetic: apt-get is in kde, the synaptic equivalent is adept
[02:08] <kitche> devkinetic: kpackage probably
[02:08] <Red-Sox> jrib: Nope
[02:08] <Red-Sox> install: missing destination file operand after `jam'
[02:08] <Red-Sox> Try `install --help' for more information.
[02:09] <elyon> ikonia:  Okay, doing that on hdb and hdc did nothing.  Ran it on sdb and got a few partitions
[02:09] <kitche> Red-Sox: jame is a program
[02:09] <jrib> Red-Sox: sudo apt-get install jam,  and use pastebin please
[02:09] <kitche> jame/jam
[02:09] <ikonia> elyon: try mounting one
[02:09] <Atomix> Slart
[02:09] <Red-Sox> jrib: pastebin for those *two* lines?
[02:09] <Red-Sox> jrib: Okay sorry
[02:09] <Slart> Atomix: run synaptic, on the left side are the categories... if you're looking for an email program.. look in the email category, multiverse and universe are just different kinds of applications

[02:12] <Atomix> i just need help
[02:12] <gizmo_the_great1> Recently my Ubuntu set-up has started to get a little flaky (had to hard reset the computer a few times due to freezing - even Ctlr Alt F1 did not work once or twice). What I want to know is, is there a way to identify 'the state' of your Ubuntu setup and whether anything can be reconfigured etc?
[02:12] <Zyphrexi> hey what's the irc channel for gnome?
[02:12] <Red-Sox> Atomix: Sorry what's the problem?
[02:12] <Zyphrexi> i know it's like #gnome or something, but not sure about the server name
[02:12] <kitche> gizmo_the_great1: look at /var/logs and see if any errors are in there
[02:12] <kitche> Zyphrexi: irc.gnome.org

[02:13] <Slart> hmm... what is the command to be available for private chat??
[02:13] <elyon> ikonia:  Oh, I found it in /tmp/ and it lists the contents of my mp3 player
[02:13] <Atomix> how
[02:13] <Red-Sox> Atomix: /ns register (pword)
[02:13] <gizmo_the_great1> GuerrillaWon:  mount -t filesystem /dev/hda
[02:13] <linux_kid> Ray-Newbie: intel or nvidia & ati
[02:13] <GuerrillaWon> ahh ok
[02:13] <ikonia> elyon: ok - so the problem is that when you removed them it still things its mounted - it must hve not mounted clean
[02:13] <Red-Sox> 0.0
[02:13] <kitsuneofdoom> I want to install Ubuntu on an LVM partition. Earlier I was told I could do this from a regular Ubuntu install disk. However, I can't see how to.
[02:13] <ikonia> so when you put it back in dbus thinks its the old device, but the actual device file name has changed
[02:13] <genben> does anyone have a recommendation for customising an ubuntu cd, a particular method or 3rd party package?
[02:13] <Ray-Newbie> ati
[02:14] <elyon> ikonia:  I never unmounted it myself, though.  I've even rebooted thinking that would reset it all, but it didn't.
[02:14] <gizmo_the_great1> GuerrillaWon: sorry - it's actually mount -t filesystem /dev/hda somewhere
[02:14] <pagefault> should be renamed to amd :P

[02:14] <ubotu> Ray-Newbie: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:14] <kitche> genben: think there is a howto on the wiki on how to do that
[02:14] <ikonia> elyon: remove the usb devices and reboot

[02:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about inspiron 6500 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:14] <NexusL> blasted
[02:14] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: There partitionor gives you 3 options. Normal, LVM or Manual.
[02:14] <PirateHead> All I can find on google are proprietary programs - does open source have a good PDF printer?
[02:14] <genben> kitche: thanks, you are a fount of wisdom 8-)
[02:14] <elyon> ikonia:  That should work then? Or is there more after that?
[02:14] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: WHICH partitioner
[02:14] <genben> kitche: got the usb thing sorted btw
[02:15] <ikonia> elyon: that should be it
[02:15] <linux_kid> PirateHead: openoffice can save in pdf
[02:15] <ikonia> shutdown for a a minute
[02:15] <elyon> ikonia:  Is that something I should always do anyway?  Remove the devices before rebooting?
[02:15] <kitche> genben: at least when I was doing some searching when I was looking for dfs I came across it on the wiki for ubuntu
[02:15] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: The one in the installer (note, the 'alternate' install CD)

[02:16] <bimberi> hm, bringing out that factoid doesn look too great ;)
[02:16] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: alternate install cd. ie: the one that boots text mode, not live.
[02:16] <genben> bimberi: ta, just found that
[02:16] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: if you want to do it vioa the live cd, you need to manually partitino and set up LVM groups and volumes.
[02:17] <Ray-Newbie> thanks, this will help but i need help to get to this point - how do I get to a command prompt where I can put the drivers in?

[02:17] <tripppy> hi, i just installed a new video card, a very big upgrade, now i can't get into Gnome, how do i run video card setup again?
[02:18] <bimberi> tripppy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:18] <tripppy> thnx!
[02:19] <gizmo_the_great1> are the terminal commands stored in a config file somewhere....the one's that are listed when you doskey through history?
[02:19] <kitche> gizmo_the_great1: ~/.bash_history
[02:19] <linux_kid> trippy: you are going to have to reinstall ubuntu or at least go to tty1 and reinstall the package gnome-desktop
[02:20] <kitche> linux_kid: no he doesn't he just has to reconfigure X
[02:20] <gizmo_the_great1> kitche: thanks, but I do not appear to have a hidden .bash folder?
[02:20] <kitche> gizmo_the_great1: it's not a folder
[02:20] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: Is the "alternate" install disk the server install disk?
[02:21] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: No, it's called 'alternate'
[02:21] <gizmo_the_great1> kitche: well spotted. cheers man
[02:21] <tripppy> well if i cant reconfigure ill reinstall!
[02:21] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: can you tell me where to get it?
[02:21] <tripppy> laters
[02:21] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: oh, nevermind
[02:21] <likeninja> New to Ubuntu, just installed 6.06 with a dual boot, but I only have access to the net via a USB D-Link DWL-G122 receiver and its not being recognized...anyone familiar with this?
[02:21] <Ray-Newbie> for my video problem i've tried adding "fb=false video=vga:off" (according to online help) to boot line but it doesn't seem to help.  i guess i need to get it visible first before i install the drivers?
[02:22] <Asc> Any word on whether Debian's very nearly full-disk-encryption encryption feature will be in Feisty?
[02:22] <cassidy> hey guys, has anyone ever heard of working dri for x1950 with the new 8.32.5 drivers?
[02:22] <daniel1988> hi folks! I'm having problems with nvidia driver (9631). Installation was ok (using envy script). It only displays white screen upon loading gdm: http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/5905/nvidiaew6.jpg . Any idea? (topic on ubuntu forum: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1968883#post1968883)
[02:22] <Asc> less one encryption
[02:22] <eugman> How can I rip sound using mplayer without it showing the video? I'd like it to work faster if thqat's possibled.
[02:23] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, that's my laptop!!!
[02:23] <liam_> whats the bar at the bottom of the screen called on linux
[02:23] <pagefault> easy
[02:23] <FurryNemesis> I've got one of those!
[02:23] <liam_> with the tasks on and stuff?
[02:23] <Aj_> is there a default passwd for root on Ubuntu?
[02:23] <pagefault> eugman: use the null video output plugin
[02:23] <cafuego_> liam_: panel
[02:23] <liam_> thanks
[02:23] <cafuego_> liam_: in Gnome anyway
[02:23] <liam_> im on kde
[02:23] <liam_> ?
[02:23] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, Toshiba Satellite S5200-701 :)
[02:23] <kitche> Aj_: root is locked so it doesn't have a password use sudo instead
[02:23] <Asc> eugman: use '-vo null'
[02:23] <elyon> ikonia:  Okay, I'm back...but it didn't change.
[02:24] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, woohoo! anyway, did you use the legacy package or the normal one?
[02:24] <ikonia> elyon: really, thats annoying
[02:24] <ikonia> and surprising
[02:24] <Peebo> any one from pommy land here
[02:24] <elyon> ikonia:  And when I logged off, the screen went black with just a black X for a cursor... I had to do a hard reset
[02:24] <ikonia> I'm off to bed now so I can't really progress it
[02:24] <ikonia> elyon: looks like your install has a problem too
[02:24] <elyon> ikonia:  Alright.  Well thanks for your help and have a good night.
[02:24] <ikonia> no problem
[02:24] <notme> How can I figure out where http://localhost/ is pointing to in my install. It is not /var/www/
[02:25] <elyon> Linux has a long, LONG way to go if it ever wants to be a viable alternative to Windows for the average user... I must say.
[02:25] <svish> where can I find more themes for Ubuntu?
[02:25] <somerville32> elyon: How so?
[02:25] <svish> !themes
[02:25] <ubotu> 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
[02:25] <wyld> elyon: why do you think that
[02:25] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, envy script. nvidia 96.31 (I think this should be the normal one)
[02:25] <kitche> elyon: well considering that Linux is not an alternative to winodws I would say it doesn't
[02:25] <Peebo> elyon: True but Ubuntu is in front of all the other distributions
[02:25] <bepogi> hey guys.  i have the most ridiculous newbie question in the history of the world.... i JUST installed ubuntu for the first time.  trying to grab automatix.
[02:25] <bepogi> i do a sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list in the terminal
[02:26] <bepogi> it asks for password but then i cannot type anything?
[02:26] <Aj_> kitche, I don't seem to get an error message when I use sudo, but it does not seem to be preforming the requested operation ifup\
[02:26] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, legacy is 71.84 or something like that (71.xx)
[02:26] <somerville32> !automatix | bepogi
[02:26] <ubotu> bepogi: 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
[02:26] <Aj_> ifup *
[02:26] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, looks like you made it unnecessarily complicated
[02:26] <svish> ok.. let me refrase that.. on the gnome-look site, which category under content do I find themes for ubuntu? any of them?
[02:26] <wyld> elyon: I dual boot, but have not used windows for anything but games
[02:26] <kitche> Peebo: well most distros aren't trying to be alternatives to Windows also
[02:26] <Ray-Newbie> for my video problem i've tried adding "fb=false video=vga:off" (according to online help) to boot line but it doesn't seem to help - still comes up as giberish.  i guess i need to get it visible first before i install the drivers?
[02:26] <wyld> !worksforme
[02:26] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[02:26] <bepogi> ah
[02:26] <somerville32> elyon, wyld: Xubuntu is the only thing I have installed. :)
[02:26] <elyon> I say that about Linux because I have a lot of computer experience and its been taking me over two weeks to get everything working... imagine someone that just wants to check email and such.
[02:27] <wyld> somerville32: quite the brazen adventurer aren't you?
[02:27] <Uthalin> elyon: ubuntu should be able to "just check email" right out of the box
[02:27] <somerville32> elyon: What problems have you been having?
[02:27] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, what should I do now?
[02:27] <elyon> ...and things are STILL going wrong that no one seems to be able to fix.
[02:27] <somerville32> elyon: Let me try :)
[02:27] <cassidy> anyone know if the x1950 pro works with the new 8.32.5 drivers?
[02:27] <Peebo> kitche: Like most people who do more then play games I am waiting patiently for Micorsoft to implode and for Windoze to disappear from the face of the Universe
[02:27] <liam_> how do you change icon themes on kde?
[02:28] <Asc> elyon: The average user wants to use the internet, limewire, an office program, and winamp.  Linux will be fine for the average if X ever starts working right.
[02:28] <somerville32> elyon: Open a private query with me so that we don't need to be distracted by the traffic in here :)
[02:28] <FurryNemesis> well, first off all reconfig your xserver to use the generic mesa or vesa drivers so you can actually see what you're doing
[02:28] <pagefault> cassidy: if it does don't expect it to run very well
[02:28] <elyon> somerville32:  Okay, well there are two problems I'm currently having.  First, my mp3 player, card reader, and digital camera can no longer be mounted.
[02:28] <eugman> thanks asc
[02:28] <somerville32> elyon: Lets work through each issue one at a time.
[02:28] <wyld> how do you do a private query?
[02:28] <cassidy> pagefault: can you get dri working with it?
[02:28] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I can acces gnome session
[02:28] <kitche> wyld: /query nick
[02:28] <cassidy> pagefault: because i want to use xgl
[02:28] <Asc> eugman: Glad I could help.
[02:28] <FurryNemesis> ah, that's ok - can you get into synaptic?
[02:28] <svish> !kde
[02:28] <wyld> thanks kitche
[02:28] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[02:29] <somerville32> elyon: Was it working at one point?
[02:29] <elyon> Asc:  I don't know about that.  Even from the first install, Firefox crashed on me a few times.
[02:29] <svish> !installingthemes
[02:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about installingthemes - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:29] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, ctrl+alt+f1, login, sudo rm /tmp/.X0-lock, startx and everything is fine
[02:29] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, direct rendering is enabled
[02:29] <pagefault> cassidy: says x1900 series
[02:29] <FurryNemesis> oh, right
[02:29] <pagefault> so I would assume so
[02:29] <kitche> elyon: welcome to flash bugs since firefox doesn't crash normally but flash likes to make it crash alot :P it even does it in windows
[02:29] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, yes, I cann access it
[02:29] <elyon> somerville32:  I opened a dialog window with you.
[02:30] <Asc> elyon: Funky.
[02:30] <h3xis> !automatix
[02:30] <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
[02:30] <cassidy> pagefault: are you still talking about with the new 8.32.5 drivers?
[02:30] <pagefault> cassidy: yes
[02:30] <Red-Sox> Jam is huge
[02:30] <Red-Sox> it's been installing forever
[02:30] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, and plese write to me: daniel1988, massage (easire to see what you are actually typing)
[02:30] <noodles12> if i open up torrents in ktorrent. where are these temp torrents kept? i deleted the files but it still keeps popping up "would you like to recreate this file?"
[02:30] <Red-Sox> speak of the devil it just finished
[02:30] <cassidy> pagefault: well i cant get mine to run under ati for opengl, its saying that stupid mesa
[02:31] <somerville32> elyon: Are you registered?
[02:31] <pagefault> cassidy: it will be very slow though because ati lacks the extension to accelerate it fast enough
[02:31] <elyon> elyon:  I don't think so.
[02:31] <kitche> noodles12: /tmp probably but just remove them from ktorrent
[02:31] <Ray-Newbie> can someone help me - for my video problem i've tried adding "fb=false video=vga:off" (according to online help) to boot line but it doesn't seem to help - still comes up as giberish.  i guess i need to get it visible first before i install the drivers?
[02:31] <Peebo> Any one from England can you check this out please. http://members.westnet.com.au/maglar/  <- nothing to important but you might help.
[02:31] <cassidy> pagefault: any way 3rd party drivers or something to get it running?
[02:31] <somerville32> !register | elyon
[02:31] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, type dani(and hit tab key < it will autocomplete the rest)
[02:31] <ubotu> elyon: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[02:31] <elyon> Asc:  Then there is the issue I'm having now with my card reader, digital camera, and mp3 players not working.  Those are things the 'average user' would want to have working too.
[02:31] <pagefault> hmm
[02:31] <pagefault> cassidy: not much you can do except buy an nvidia card :(
[02:32] <Red-Sox> Where to apps install to?
[02:32] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, now say what to do...
[02:32] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, got it - ok, looks like you're not getting my PM's so essentially you need to restart X to get a working screen, is that it?
[02:32] <Red-Sox> Oh and I _NEED_ iTunes running on Linux
[02:32] <Red-Sox> Any workarounds?
[02:32] <kitche> Red-Sox: though wine but 7.x doesn't work
[02:32] <Asc> elyon: Funky.  They work for me.
[02:32] <somerville32> !itunes | Red-Sox
[02:32] <ubotu> Red-Sox: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[02:32] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, right
[02:32] <kitche> elyon: have you updated lately?
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: im here now
[02:33] <Red-Sox> somerville32: Yeah but I need the music store
[02:33] <phish2> I've got a box installed with the normal desktop install however now I put the root drive on lvm.  I added device mapper modules to /etc/mkinitramfs/modules and lvm scanning and all that works in the busybox but it always tries to mount root (and waits at trying to mount root for 5 mins before failing and dropping into busybox)
[02:33] <Asc> red-sox: You can use Ccedaga to run itunes.  Also, banshee is a semi-passable clone.
[02:33] <Asc> *cedaga
[02:33] <elyon> kitche:  Any time updates are available, yes.
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: did you get gparted working
[02:33] <Red-Sox> Asc: Dude I _have_ Cedega!
[02:33] <notme> Red-Sox: what functions [] do you need in itunes?
[02:33] <Red-Sox> Asc: So it runs well?
[02:33] <pagefault> crossover office runs itunes the best but is a commercial product
[02:33] <elyon> xtknight:  Nope.  now my removable devices refuse to mount ;)
[02:33] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I tried to use synaptic to install nvidia dirver... it tries to install 97xx which doesn't support gf4mx 460go
[02:33] <phish2> I'll I have to do to boot from there is lvm lvchange -a y to the lv groups I use
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: ah ok
[02:33] <pagefault> you are better off with amarok or exile
[02:33] <Red-Sox> notme: iPod integration, Music Store, Look and Feel, using an apple product :P
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: well we can fix that
[02:33] <notme> banshee
[02:34] <Red-Sox> notme: mainly music store though...
[02:34] <elyon> xtknight:  somerville32 is giving me a hand at the moment :P
[02:34] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, ok, get into synaptic, search for nvidia legacy and install the package called nvidia-glx-legacy - you don't need the dev files. After that run "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"
[02:34] <kitche> elyon: then probably you got a kernel update and it broke your system the kernel is actually updated quite a bit in Linux not sure if Ubuntu updated it though
[02:34] <notme> banshee
[02:34] <xtknight> elyon:
[02:34] <xtknight> k
[02:34] <notme> Red-Sox: banshee can do all that
[02:34] <somerville32> elyon: xtknight can help too :)
[02:34] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I want to install beryl
[02:34] <Red-Sox> notme: How do I use the Music Store?
[02:34] <Asc> red-sox: I don't have Cedaga myself; I've just heard that it runs itunes.
[02:34] <elyon> grr... my nickname is already registered.
[02:34] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, no prob, I've got it running right now
[02:34] <kitche> notme: banshee can't use Apple music store
[02:34] <Red-Sox> Asc: oh
[02:34] <cassidy> pagefault: damn i like this card under windows....
[02:34] <elyon> somerville32:  I'm fine with that :)
[02:34] <somerville32> elyon: identify then :)
[02:35] <somerville32> elyon: /msg nickserv identify <your pass>
[02:35] <notme> Red-Sox: read the banshee webpage it will tell you how
[02:35] <pagefault> cassidy: ati doesn't care about linux
[02:35] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, starting with nvidia 96.29, drivers do it, no need for xgl nor aiglx
[02:35] <elyon> somerville32:  I never registered it, though.
[02:35] <Asc> wait.  Banshee does music store?
[02:35] <somerville32> elyon: Ok, then register your nick :)
[02:35] <pagefault> cassidy: I had to switch from them because I got fed up
[02:35] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, so i need something >=96.29
[02:35] <Red-Sox> notme: kk
[02:35] <kitche> Asc: not that I know of
[02:35] <elyon> somerville32:  Its already taken lol
[02:35] <kitche> Asc: unless it's Amazon or another one
[02:35] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, legacy drivers are 7xxx
[02:36] <phish2> anyone have any idea why root fails to mount (or rather just activate my lv groups?)
[02:36] <cassidy> pagefault: well idk anymore then no need for linux with this card, cant run alot of apps very good
[02:36] <kitche> FurryNemesis: what card do you have?
[02:36] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, I'm using XGL as a workaround, thing is our GeForce 4 cards are actually revamped GeForce 2's which don't accept those drivers - Toshiba kept that one unser their hats
[02:36] <xtknight> oh boy does Illustrator (under vmware) drive me up the wall.  anyone know of any good alternatives? (preferably linux)
[02:36] <pagefault> cassidy: their vista drivers are no better either which is sort of funny
[02:37] <kitche> FurryNemesis: well considering that GeForce2 is still supported with the nvidia drivers and not the legacy drivers I would use the nvidia drivers and not their legacy ones
[02:37] <xtknight> Illustrator is way overkill for what i need to do, and i believe i'm suffering because of that.
[02:37] <cassidy> pagefault: ya right now my card will play games in windows but like during half life 2 it keeps crashing, must be a bad model or something
[02:37] <Asc> Hmm, the plugins page says there's one for the itunes store
[02:37] <cafuego_> xtknight: Ha! Inkscape!

[02:39] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, legacy drivers will work, I can promise you that - mine's perfectly supported - and you're right, it is annoying
[02:39] <David6717> Anyone set up DSL on Ubuntu?
[02:39] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, is there a way to kill this white screen? driver actually works: glxinfo | grep direct ...direct rendering: Yes
[02:39] <xtknight> cafuego_: i can definitely catch on to this quicker. thanks.  but importing my current illustrator thing is going to be way too much trouble so ill just finish it up in there but for my next project this looks great
[02:40] <ammiel> is there a 32 bit package of libsm?
[02:40] <cafuego_> xtknight: export from illustrator as SVG
[02:40] <ammiel> i need it for wine

[02:40] <liam_> how do i find what version of kde im running?
[02:40] <xtknight> cafuego_: you wouldn't happen to know of how to remove just a couple mesh points from illustrator?  all i can find is ways to add them, the problem is my curve looks all weird because i cant adjust all the points perfectly.  i need to have less points.
[02:41] <cafuego_> xtknight: No, sorry... I haven't used Illistrator in close to a decade...
[02:41] <ammiel> liam_, you can open up konqueror and then go under help to about kde
[02:41] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, not that I know of, unfortunately - what a pain - silly question but what's running on session startup?
[02:42] <xtknight> just for reference, Alt+Click removes a mesh point
[02:42] <xtknight> phew
[02:42] <kitche> daniel1988: ok that is odd that probably not a geforce chipset then let me check out nvidia website

[02:43] <xtknight> Riyonuk: dreamweaver under vmware, that is
[02:43] <Riyonuk> ..and vmware
[02:44] <cafuego_> Riyonuk: They're both pretty much code editors, not wysiwyg
[02:44] <xtknight> Riyonuk: haha
[02:44] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I can login (on blind)... everyting works (login sound appers), it loads gnome session but there is the white screen on the top of it (if that was the answer on your question)
[02:44] <kitche> daniel1988: they must of just released those driver recently
[02:44] <cafuego_> Riyonuk: dreamweaver 2004 runs under cedega actually (perhaps wine too)
[02:44] <xtknight> Riyonuk: wine! it's so much better than vmware... :P   ok if you want serious suggestions, bluefish or anjuta i believe
[02:44] <Riyonuk> there we go
[02:44] <daniel1988> kitche, :( yes the support for gf4 is removed starting with 97xx
[02:45] <xtknight> maybe anjuta is only for C programming, i cant remember exactly
[02:45] <bruenig> !info nvu
[02:45] <ubotu> nvu: Complete Web Authoring System. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0final-2ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 8373 kB, installed size 26448 kB
[02:45] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, just noticed something on your xorg.conf - you're got 2 random 0's after the section:serverlayout : 22 screen, after the " marks
[02:45] <xtknight> nvu, yes that too
[02:45] <kitche> daniel1988: since I know they were still supported in 97xx when they first came out
[02:45] <Riyonuk> I hate nvu, Im gonna look into anjuta
[02:45] <bruenig> anjuta is not a dreamweaver type app
[02:45] <bruenig> it is an ide
[02:46] <ammiel> is there a 32 bit libSM library ?
[02:46] <daniel1988> kitche, the installed driver actually works: glxinfo | grep direct ...direct rendering: Yes (have you read the topic on forums?)
[02:46] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I'll take a look
[02:46] <kitche> daniel1988: yes I did but my gpu probably won't work :(
[02:47] <homebrewer> Hi everyone!!
[02:47] <raintheory> if i need to i'll unload dapper from the HDD, delete it's partitions and then resize the NTFS partition with windoze tools...  but i'd rather do it another way...   anyone?
[02:48] <Red-Sox> What's the package that managers the "svn" command?
[02:48] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, here:     Screen         "Default Screen" 0 0 ?
[02:48] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, yep
[02:48] <homebrewer> in TERMINAL i can put 'LANG=...' before my command! HOW do I do this in, for example, <alt>F2 run dialog??
[02:48] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, never seen that before, could it be causing the foulup?
[02:49] <squeaks> raintheory, the ubuntu installer will resize ntfs i think
[02:49] <squeaks> do custom partitioning
[02:50] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, it won't let it to start properly after "killing" gdm...
[02:50] <raintheory> squeaks, tried that...  no luck
[02:50] <squeaks> error?
[02:50] <ProN00b> does anyone have a source for the death note movie ?
[02:50] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I'll try to remove them, but I don't think it will really help
[02:50] <h3xis> ProN00b, pm
[02:50] <ProN00b> oh DAMN
[02:50] <bobby> how do you tell which version of ubuntu you are running?
[02:51] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, also see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/511/ for my xorg.conf - Everything works, but bear in mind I'm using the legacy drivers + xgl in that
[02:51] <crimsun> bobby: lsb_release -r
[02:51] <cafuego_> bobby: lsb_release -a
[02:51] <stoorty> is there a bonic client specifically for ubuntu??
[02:51] <ProN00b> nobody told me that amsg was clientwide in xchat
[02:51] <cafuego_> stoorty: yes
[02:51] <squeaks> raintheory, if you're trying to install dapper drake, i think the resize utility might be new to edgy
[02:51] <cafuego_> ProN00b: Did you ask?
[02:51] <raintheory> squeaks, ahh okay
[02:51] <bobby> right; what issues will I face doing an upgrade from 5.10 to 6.06? I'm using the automated upgrade
[02:51] <squeaks> also, might want to defragment first
[02:52] <ProN00b> cafuego_, no
[02:52] <raintheory> squeaks, i already have dapper installed dual-boot with windows...  but decided that i need more room on the NTFS side
[02:52] <bobby> I've backed up the squid and routing config so I can't forsee much of an issue though I'm trying to do this as a live upgrade
[02:52] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, ok, thx. I want to have driver builtin composite support, for better performance

[03:10] <David6717> didn't work
[03:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about I tried that... - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:10] <borg> how do i mount my dvdrom ?
[03:10] <noelferreira> it didn't noiesmo. what shoul i do?
[03:10] <David6717> I gotup to pppoeconf
[03:11] <David6717> It gave some error message
[03:11] <David6717> and then quit
[03:11] <bobby> ebroder, can you be more specific.  at what point does ubuntu stop booting?
[03:11] <ebroder> bobby: the bios finishes its thing, then nothing happens
[03:11] <stefg> achandra: see !easysource for a webpage to regenerate your sources.list, but all you have to do is uncomment the universe-entries in the existing /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:11] <ebroder> i see no indication that there's any booting activity
[03:11] <ammiel> Can i get a link to the Ubuntu package repositories?

[03:11] <h3xis> !alternate
[03:11] <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.
[03:11] <stefg> achandra: and the sudo apt-get update, of course
[03:12] <bobby> ebroder, that isn't a good sign... do you have a means to test your hard drive status?
[03:12] <ebroder> bobby: i tried running fsck from the installer. came up clean
[03:12] <ebroder> and the install runs fine
[03:12] <h3xis> anyone know where to find the alternate cd?
[03:13] <bobby> ebroder, interesting; do you just have the one hdd connected to the computer or are you using a pci-ide card?
[03:13] <bobby> h3xis, at the ubuntu cd download site
[03:13] <h3xis> bobby, ty
[03:13] <tirus89> h3xis, anything on that alt install torrent
[03:13] <nalioth> bah, lag
[03:13] <Ice_Wewe> nalioth: what's -r do?
[03:13] <noelferreira> how can i use unzip to extract a lot of files (.zip ... .z01 ... .z02 ..)
[03:13] <h3xis> tirus89, i dont know, what's wrong with getting it from a site?
[03:13] <ebroder> bobby: i have a pci-ide card, but i disconnected it because it was causing problems - installer couldn't decide which drive was hda and which was hde. right now i have one hdd plugged into the motherboard
[03:14] <nalioth> Ice_Wewe: turns off a redirect
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> noelferreira: shouldn't the program automatically find the rest of the parts to the file?
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> nalioth: oh, ok
[03:14] <noiesmo> noelferreira, maybe try p7zip and use p7zip -d *.zip
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> noelferreira: are they all in the same folder?
[03:14] <bobby> noelferreira, read the manual? ... unzip -e file.z01 should work iirc?
[03:14] <tirus89> h3xis, i wouldnt know whats a good site to search torrents,
[03:14] <achandra> stefg: yes, I did this...and still it refuses to work
[03:14] <bobby> noelferreira, why don't you just use file-roller in gnome?
[03:14] <tripppy> ok, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, didnt really help. now it boots into a black screen , rather than error
[03:14] <h3xis> tirus89, i mean the direct ISO download
[03:14] <David6717> anyone know how to set up Qwest DSL with Ubuntu?
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: use Google for looking for torrents
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: Google indexes all the torrent sites, so you'll get the best results
[03:15] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: uh, not that I'd know >_>
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, righto - I've had the same problem as you in the past - you'll be happy to know with some stuffing around and a 2.6.18+ kernel it works nicely these days :)
[03:15] <tirus89> Ice_wewe, no crap with it? ^_^ ?
[03:15] <ebroder> bobby: what exactly do you mean?
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, if you took the pci-ide card out after the last time you did grub-install you will haev to do it again
[03:15] <stefg> achandra: msttcorefonts is a special packages, that downloads the fonts from some sourceforget-site. These have a tendency to be down, so the package install fails
[03:15] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: no, I get pretty accurate hits on what I want
[03:15] <ebroder> bobby: i did a complete reinstall after i pulled it
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, pci-ide drives hand on the wrong bios information to the kernel and it stuffs it :P
[03:15] <h3xis> tirus89, do you prefer a torrent?
[03:15] <tripppy> im going to re-install ubuntu, is dapper ready?
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, oh...well that is a problem then
[03:15] <Stephenishere> Hi, i tried to install Mplayer and i think i did it wrong, when i play movies i get a loud hissing sound...
[03:16] <tirus89> h3xis, it would be nice ^_^
[03:16] <h3xis> tirus89, k
[03:16] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: I'd say it works 90% of the time, as long as you're not looking for something that's hard to find, or would show up on a lot of xxx sites
[03:16] <noiesmo> tripppy, go edgy
[03:16] <ebroder> bobby: any chance a different version of ubuntu would work?
[03:16] <achandra> stefg: i see...is there a manual way of installing them?
[03:16] <tripppy> noiesmo, thats wat i meant
[03:16] <bobby> ebroder, which version of ubuntu are you using?
[03:16] <tirus89> ice_wewe, lol
[03:16] <noiesmo> tripppy, yes its ready

[03:16] <Ice_Wewe> does anyone know why my V4L module freaks when I unplug my cam (also why nothing can access my cam) and khubd starts using all my CPU time till I reboot?
[03:16] <h3xis> tirus89, http://isohunt.com/torrents/?ihq=ubuntu+alternate click on the first one. should say ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[03:16] <Ice_Wewe> I filed a bug report, but my bug seems to have died, alone and forgotton
[03:16] <stefg> achandra: yes, there is, by putting the right archives into the right places. But don't ask for details, 'cos i don't know them
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> h3xis: I don' like distro torrents
[03:17] <h3xis> Ice_Wewe, i dont either but tirus89 prefers one
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> h3xis: unless you're grabbing them the day of, or the day after, there is no one seeding
[03:17] <bobby> ebroder, if the livecd uses the same kernel as edgy installed jump into that and check if dmesg detects your hdd and mobo correctly - there may be an issue with that specific kernel version
[03:17] <tirus89> h3xis, ^_^
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: just use an ftp link, it's faster
[03:17] <h3xis> Ice_Wewe, there are 168 seeds
[03:17] <tirus89> ice_wewe, hahaha, right.....
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: plus, you don't have to deal with share ratio, etc.
[03:17] <bobby> though it is very odd for grub not to follow on from the bios
[03:18] <tirus89> ice_wewe, i'll stick with the torrents, its what i know right now
[03:18] <bobby> suggests to me maybe an issue with the settings in the bios (reset it to cmos defaults)
[03:18] <noelferreira> how can i use unzip to extract a lot of files (.zip ... .z01 ... .z02 ..)
[03:18] <ebroder> bobby: i could try that
[03:18] <bobby> and then reinstall the mbr (grub-install)
[03:18] <ebroder> ok
[03:18] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: suit yourself, I prefer direct http/ftp downloads myself. Use wget
[03:18] <bobby> noelferreira, USE FILE-ROLLER
[03:18] <h3xis> noelferreira someone already told you to use unzip *.zip
[03:18] <beck> Umm.
[03:18] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: file roller is useless for RARs, that's my one main complaint
[03:18] <professor> Hey all
[03:19] <professor> I have a question, does anyone run aircrack
[03:19] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, no it's not.  there is a package that adds rar support to file-roller
[03:19] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I have to use wine and a windows version of unrar to expand any of them
[03:19] <h3xis> professor, i did a year ago
[03:19] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I've installed that package, and it doesn't expand any of the RARs I have
[03:19] <leros> how do i enable the restricted repository?
[03:19] <clever> professor: i have aircrack and use it every now and then
[03:19] <bobby> file-roller compresses and decompresses everything for me; including parts ...
[03:19] <bobby> so...it works for me :|
[03:19] <bepogi> Hello.  Trying to install JRE on Ubuntu using the terminal.  What the hell do you do when the blue licensing agreement pops up?  How do you work it?  Click ok, type ok, get by it... etc?!?!?
[03:19] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: doesn't for me, but I'm on x64
[03:19] <professor> how do I get it from terminal, I want to use it from the interface instead of the terminal
[03:19] <bruenig> leros, it should be enabled by default, paste your /etc/apt/sources.list if you aren't sure
[03:19] <bruenig> !paste | leros
[03:19] <ubotu> leros: 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)
[03:20] <clever> professor: i dont think aircrack has a gui
[03:20] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, ah righto - I'm still hiding on x86 :)
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bepogi: hit 'return/enter'
[03:20] <h3xis> professor, you have to use it in terminal
[03:20] <clever> none that ive seen
[03:20] <professor> really
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: you'll find that a h*ll of a lot doesn't work on x64
[03:20] <tirus89> hahah lol, only like hour and a half
[03:20] <professor> I cant get it to work for moe

[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> professor: really
[03:20] <bepogi> yeah.  nothing happens when enter is pressed.
[03:20] <professor> I have tried airdump
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> professor: I had to do that the other day
[03:20] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, sounds familiar - like using windows_64? :P\
[03:20] <professor> can you private im me
[03:20] <h3xis> tirus89, ive never used the alternate cd so....youre kind of on your own
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> professor: I used synaptic to install it, just hit return for me
[03:20] <bobby> my mac is 64bit and everything works fine :)
[03:20] <h3xis> tirus89, unless you explain what you se
[03:20] <h3xis> see
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: wouldn't know, don't use Windows
[03:20] <willys_fueguino> I have a friend that removed his gaim tray icon and now he cant see the tray of any programs..
[03:20] <professor> yea I did that also
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: Core 2 Duo, or G5?
[03:21] <willys_fueguino> could somebody help us??
[03:21] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, neither do I.  though every windows chap I know does :)
[03:21] <professor> but still can not get airodump to work
[03:21] <tirus89> h3xis, ok, i'll give it a shot, i'll just need the basic commands for the install
[03:21] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, G5
[03:21] <bobby> of course
[03:21] <bruenig> willys_fueguino, right click the panel, add to panel, then find the notification area applet and add it
[03:21] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: Can't stand my G4 PowerBook, so slow
[03:21] <leros> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/512/
[03:21] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I got tired of PPC and jumped to x86, then to x64. Been running x64 for a year now... so fast.
[03:21] <professor> it says that I cant get the drivers to reconize
[03:21] <tripppy> wheres the m5# for edgy?
[03:21] <h3xis> tirus89, i'll try :S
[03:21] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: single core stuff though
[03:21] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, I've got a G4 powerbook; does what I need... so appart from neo office being slow I haven't noticed an issue
[03:21] <professor> it keeps booting me out to the web site
[03:22] <bruenig> leros, it is enabled, the first line has it "eb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse"
[03:22] <Matthew_W> Help!
[03:22] <Matthew_W> lol
[03:22] <bruenig> wow that was hilarious
[03:22] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, I'm thinking about making the switch when debian releases x64 branch as stable
[03:22] <professor> and what is with Edgy
[03:22] <leros> bruenig, ok thanks
[03:22] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: found out after my dad started working at Freescale that the PB G4 probably would'a had a dual core, except the group that was making the CPU delivered almost 2 years late
[03:22] <bobby> bruenig, I hope you missed the d from the start of that line
[03:22] <professor> I loaded it in my computer and, sometimes when I am on a program it just logs off the program
[03:22] <bruenig> bobby, yeah I did
[03:22] <professor> so I went back to 6.06
[03:22] <Matthew_W> Here's the thing, I have no GRUB any longer, because I installed windows!  ... on a separate partition of course.. when I do sudo grub-install I get an error... no corresponding bios candidate... any help is greatly needed.
[03:23] <bruenig> No Grub!
[03:23] <bruenig> lol
[03:23] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, mmm... big shame about the delays too as I'm a big fan of the ppc series
[03:23] <stefg> !grub
[03:23] <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
[03:23] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I was, but it's kinda SLOW
[03:23] <Matthew_W> Checking now
[03:23] <noiesmo> Matthew_W, so you running livecd
[03:23] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: only thing that really gets me is that Apple choose to include AGP 4X with this CPU
[03:23] <noelferreira> Ice_Wewe: yes fiels are in the same folder
[03:23] <Matthew_W> noiesmo:  yep
[03:23] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: my 1999 IBM has AGP 4X
[03:24] <professor> so how do I get airodump to work when it says the drivers are not correct.  I have loaded in the correct drivers still cant get it to work.  I have a compact laptop
[03:24] <noiesmo> Matthew_W, you need to chroot in to the linux install then do grub
[03:24] <professor> and I am using ndiswrapper for my desktop
[03:24] <funkdollar> Matthew_W : if you try grub-install /dev/hda (or whatever you have?)
[03:24] <bepogi> Forget JRE for now.  Now when I open the Synaptic Package Manager, I get a "E:dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.  But nothing happened when I opened the terminal and sudo that.
[03:24] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I know PPC has support for PCI-E, you see it on the G5.
[03:24] <Matthew_W> funkdollar: No corresponding bios drive X_X
[03:24] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: their Intel laptops ship with PCI-E, they were just too damn lazy to redesign the chipset for the G4
[03:24] <noiesmo> !chroot | Matthew_W
[03:24] <ubotu> Matthew_W: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[03:25] <noelferreira> people i got this erros: :  zipfile claims to be last disk of a multi-part archive;
[03:25] <noelferreira>   attempting to process anyway, assuming all parts have been concatenated
[03:25] <noelferreira>   together in order.  Expect "errors" and warnings...true multi-part support
[03:25] <noelferreira>   doesn't exist yet (coming soon).
[03:25] <noelferreira> sorry for the paste
[03:25] <funkdollar> ls /dev/hd* and then try hdparm -I on each one of them to see if hdparm recognizes the device ?
[03:25] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: and this thing with DDR2 RAM, nice for giving me a price break, but it runs at a slower speed than any x86/64 notebook, so I can't use any of my Apple RAM in a PC notebook
[03:25] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: horrible
[03:25] <professor> ok so Im new to linux is ubuntu the best version
[03:25] <bruenig> !best
[03:25] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:25] <professor> I mean I like it alot
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> professor: well, you're in the Ubuntu room, so the common bias is going to be 'yes it is'
[03:26] <bobby> lol
[03:26] <bruenig> professor, gentoo is far better, try your hand at that
[03:26] <professor> lol
[03:26] <bimberi> professor: yes, but this is a biased forum ;)
[03:26] <lumgwada> hi, have there been any reports of instability to Firefox (Dapper) patches? I have a number of sites I that make Firefox blink out of existance.
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> professor: it depends on the person, some will tell you yes, others will disagree
[03:26] <jvai> sik.. lol
[03:26] <noelferreira> any help with unzip?
[03:26] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, so you're running ubuntu on your mac?
[03:26] <professor> I hear ya
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: Gentoo is the ultimate linux
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: no, it doesn't work
[03:26] <HLM> !ubuntu
[03:26] <funkdollar> folks anyone here running gnome ? After a while when showing the desktop my icons on the desktop redraw NOT instantaneously which is annoying ...
[03:26] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[03:27] <bobby> professor, it depends on what you want to do with linux.  if you want a simple to use desktop I recommend ubuntu...if you want to sink your teeth into a more 'purist' distrobution try out debian.
[03:27] <HymnToLife> there is no such thing as an "ultimate Linux"
[03:27] <professor> isnt ubuntu debian based
[03:27] <HymnToLife> please don't feed the trolls
[03:27] <FurryNemesis> HymnToLife, yep
[03:27] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, rubbish; gentoo has some huge draw backs like the rest
[03:27] <borg> how do i mount my dvdrom ?
[03:27] <bruenig> gentoo has no drawbacks
[03:28] <bobby> bruenig, re-read
[03:28] <funkdollar> I mean is there any alternative for icon placement ? I was a long time openbox user in the past and some gnome things really annoy me ...
[03:28] <bruenig> borg, it should automount when you put dvds in it
[03:28] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: aside from compiling everything, and I can't figure out how to install it, it's good
[03:28] <Stephenishere> where is wine located after install?
[03:28] <professor> in terminal
[03:28] <bruenig> well installing it is impossible but I mean that is not a big issue
[03:28] <professor> or right click
[03:28] <willys_fueguino> bruenig: thanx a lot. (its the very first time that I see a tip like that work with only 1 try ;-) ) thanx
[03:28] <noiesmo> borg, mount /dev/hdx /media/cdromx
[03:28] <bobby> bruenig, it's package management is shocking.  after two years a gentoo box would need to be blown away if it had high usage.  there are other issues as well.  most of which are very off topic for this channel
[03:29] <bruenig> more bobby FUD
[03:29] <bobby> Stephenishere, you run things with it...  wine windows.exe
[03:29] <professor> I find that after downloading a package I cant find it
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I disagree, emerge is one of the best package managers available
[03:29] <Stephenishere> Yeah but i dont know where the .exe file saved to
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> Stephenishere: umm, in your path?
[03:29] <rbil> Stephenishere: after install, .wine in your home directory is where the "windows" environment is stored
[03:29] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, indeed it is; I'm talking about long term package degredation
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> Stephenishere: well then do a locate
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: what exactly is the issue?
[03:29] <professor> where is everyone from
[03:29] <Stephenishere> ah i didnt know there was a . in front of it
[03:29] <Stephenishere> i was trying just cd wine :)
[03:30] <Ice_Wewe> Stephenishere: make a sym link
[03:30] <Gothfunc> since moving to beryl, i find the taskbar redundant and obtrusive.  i don't suppose there are panel plugins available are there?  a notification area for windows that want attention would be more useful to me than a panel full of idle tasks.
[03:30] <blanky> Gothfunc: #ubuntu-xgl maybe?
[03:30] <bruenig> Gothfunc, remove the taskbar
[03:30] <blanky> Gothfunc: or even #beryl
[03:30] <Ice_Wewe> ugh, why would anyone want to run xgl?
[03:30] <professor> do you have to compile ever program you install?
[03:30] <gop> hey
[03:30] <bobby> Gothfunc, interesting.  no it doesn't exist at the moment though adding it as a requested feature to gnome would be very handy
[03:30] <bruenig> Gothfunc, right beside that little view desktop button, right click there and then remove task list
[03:30] <gop> how do I install drivers
[03:30] <gop> for my ati tv wonder
[03:30] <gop> card
[03:30] <blanky> professor: sudo apt-get install <programname>
[03:30] <Ice_Wewe> gop: synaptic
[03:31] <Gothfunc> blanky: is the gnome panel anything to do with beryl or xgl?
[03:31] <gop> for tv tunner
[03:31] <professor> yea but is that a compile
[03:31] <professor> as well
[03:31] <blanky> Gothfunc: well, you're asking for a plugin in beryl, no?
[03:31] <Ice_Wewe> gop: can't help you, don't know if it's supported
[03:31] <Gothfunc> bruenig: then i wouldn't know when a task is flashing
[03:31] <funkdollar> Ice_Wewe, Xgl i dunno - but Aiglx really is something
[03:31] <Gothfunc> bobby:  i wonder if it would be hard to add myself
[03:31] <bobby> aiglx is integrated into xorg 7.1 now
[03:31] <Gothfunc> blanky:  no, in gnome panel
[03:32] <bruenig> Ice_Wewe, just a suggestion, for channel sanity it is probably best to suggest command line fixes at least as far as apt-get is concerned because unless you are absolutely positive you know exactly how to go step by step in the gui and you fail nobody can pick up where you leave off
[03:32] <Gothfunc> blanky:  i was asking if it used plugins
[03:32] <professor> I downloaded some nes similators, how do I get game on them
[03:32] <bruenig> professor, get some roms
[03:32] <funkdollar> bobby i used to run this on edgy a day ago with the open source radeon driver
[03:32] <Ice_Wewe> funkdollar: I find that XGL is a waste of hardware and energy. While I'm not a 'save the planet' person, I feel that those useless effects should be saved for causes that need a good feature alot more than linux does, such as Vista or OS X
[03:32] <professor> wher
[03:32] <professor> e
[03:32] <bobby> professor, read their manual pages
[03:32] <Shocka311> If I delete my HD and re dl ubuntu will my screen name for IRC chat be taken or can I still login as shocka311?
[03:32] <professor> I tried
[03:32] <professor> lol
[03:32] <professor> I a noob
[03:32] <bruenig> !enter
[03:32] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:32] <robertj> hey all, what's the fastest intel 3d accelerator out there?
[03:32] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: did u register your nick with the nickserv?
[03:33] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: I don't know.
[03:33] <Ice_Wewe> professor: download some ROM files
[03:33] <bruenig> Shocka311, it won't be taken, if you registered it, nickserv keeps them
[03:33] <funkdollar> Well i am really shocked at the slowness of gnome redrawing my desktop with icons on it
[03:33] <professor> ok where from
[03:33] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: well type '/msg nickserv register <password>'
[03:33] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: at least I think that's what you do
[03:33] <noelferreira> help please: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:33] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, what does free -m give you?
[03:34] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: and then, yes, when you trash your HDD and come back crying for help, you can use your nick
[03:34] <funkdollar> and i agree that this development energy could have been spen on usability rather than showoff ...
[03:34] <Shocka311> at a command prompt or just here on IRC?
[03:34] <bruenig> it is linux, if you want to develop something do it. Don't complain that the developers who do so for free are spending it on things you don't want them to

[03:35] <gop> bruenig,  but that same is argued with microsoft products
[03:35] <funkdollar> the first line
[03:35] <gop> that they spend time on stuff we don't want to
[03:35] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: in xchat, or whatever client you're using
[03:35] <gop> the same arugment is said about paid software
[03:35] <bruenig> gop, that is closed source, you can't do anything about that. You can for linux
[03:35] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: just please, for the love of all that is hardwarely, make sure you put a slash in front of it, otherwise we can all see what password you're gonna use
[03:35] <gop> bruenig,  hmm
[03:36] <gop> you mean with open source my grandmother can have some input on what features she wants / needs
[03:36] <Ice_Wewe> man, where is the stalker bot that tells everyone what city you're coming from
[03:36] <gop> what if my grandmother paid for ubuntu distro
[03:36] <gop> and support
[03:36] <Ice_Wewe> gop: no, but you can tell her she can, just for kicks
[03:36] <gop> Ice_Wewe,  :)
[03:36] <gop> lol
[03:36] <bruenig> gop, I am saying that people are developing for free what they want, don't complain about that. If you want something else developed you do it, don't tell these people who don't get paid by you to switch their focuses.
[03:36] <Falstius> your grandma could always post a bug report or feature request to launch pad ;)
[03:36] <gop> I was joking
[03:37] <Riyonuk> I keep getting the error message, in synaptic package manager, that I cant download the index thing, you know when you press refresh. http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/source/Sources.gz: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[03:37] <noelferreira> help please: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:37] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, hmm, everytime you hit f5 it just chugs?
[03:37] <gop> bruenig,  good point
[03:37] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: probably an incomplete file.
[03:37] <lufis> What's the difference between kill and killall?
[03:37] <gop> bruenig,  but with closed source you software your paying some to code
[03:37] <gop> and in the end
[03:37] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: my guess is that the gzip decompressor is getting an unexpected EOF
[03:37] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, what do you mean?
[03:37] <gop> he not doing what we want
[03:37] <gop> like a secure os
[03:37] <gop> e.g. windows
[03:37] <gop> they make it unsecure
[03:37] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, :o >_> what does that mean?
[03:37] <bruenig> gop, then complain and leave, but Ice_Wewe is crying about beryl developers and so was some other guy
[03:37] <gop> but we pay them to make it secure
[03:38] <gop> bruenig,  I don't complain
[03:38] <gop> I am happy
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: it means the header is probably incomplete, and you can't get somewhere without complete map directions
[03:38] <gop> just saying the arguments on both side
[03:38] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, its weird: if i do hard redraw thing on the desktop like moving windows around fast then reverting immediately to an empty desktop make the desktop icon redrawing choke
[03:38] <gop> to be objective
[03:38] <gop> I am happy
[03:38] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: k i did that and it sent a message to nickserve, Am I registered now?
[03:38] <bruenig> gop, you are totally confused as to what the argument is
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> gop: ok, so be objective while you code your grandmothers feature requests
[03:38] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, well, what if it means I cant get my audacious :(
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: did nickserv say anything to you?
[03:38] <funkdollar> and after selecting another wallpaper and back the same again things fix
[03:38] <Falstius> lufis: kill takes a process ID, killall kills everything that starts with some sequence of leters.
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: audacity?
[03:38] <bruenig> gop, there was no microsoft vs. linux argument. There was a "should you complain about linux developers and what they chose to develop or not" argument
[03:39] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: no
[03:39] <lufis> Falstius: ah, neat. thanks
[03:39] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, Im pretty sure its audacious
[03:39] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: then I doubt it, want me to check?
[03:39] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: if you're talking about the audio editing software, it's Audacity
[03:39] <gop> bruenig,  oh
[03:39] <gop> good point
[03:39] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: please
[03:39] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: if you're talking about something else, then it's Audacious
[03:39] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, although BMP seems pretty good
[03:39] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, -__- I just said that
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: '/msg nickserv register <nick> <password>' I think
[03:40] <bruenig> you don't put your nick
[03:40] <bruenig> nickserv knows your nick since you are messaging them with it
[03:40] <gop> my point is I tought ubuntu was more user friendly user inputed distro bruenig
[03:40] <gop> I might be wrong
[03:40] <gop> :)
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: yeah, what bruenig said
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: you just said what?
[03:40] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, recent problem? Updated anything recently?
[03:40] <Shocka311> I typed /msg nickserve <password>
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: no e on nickserv
[03:41] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, -___- that I wanted audacious, and you started talking about audacity >_>
[03:41] <bruenig> gop, it was over beryl, which is a fancy eye candy thing and they were complaining that developers shouldn't waste their time on it.
[03:41] <Shocka311> ah
[03:41] <Ice_Wewe> FurryNemesis: that's one field where I wish linux were more like Windows. Ubuntu needs a backup program where you can select to revert the system back 2 weeks or whatever
[03:41] <Gothfunc> any idea what the gnome panel program name is?
[03:41] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: ok, well sorry.
[03:41] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, i have a clean edgy install - well i had beryl and uninstalled it and also played with the gcong setting regarding metacity performance features.
[03:41] <Riyonuk> tis ok :)
[03:41] <bruenig> gop, not over ubuntu and the ubuntu developers over the beryl developers as if they should for whatever reason they should abandon their project and do something else
[03:41] <gop> bruenig,  oh I see oh that just plain stupid
[03:41] <gop> developer should do what they want
[03:42] <gop> bruenig,  your right
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, that probably did it
[03:42] <gop> I see your point
[03:42] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: make sure your synaptic/apt-get has all the sources added (like universe and multiverse), and if it isn't there, go Google hunting
[03:42] <crimsun> Gothfunc: gnome-panel, surprisingly enough
[03:42] <gop> bruenig,  I was confused
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, got a backup?
[03:42] <Shocka311> it didn't do anything.
[03:42] <bruenig> !info audacious
[03:42] <ubotu> Package audacious does not exist in any distro I know
[03:42] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, well a backup is out of the question i am afraid
[03:42] <Ice_Wewe> funkdollar: your gnome-panel uses up all your CPU time unless you kill it?
[03:42] <rbil> Ice_Wewe: only toy operating systems need "restore points"
[03:42] <bruenig> Riyonuk, I do not believe their is a package called audacious
[03:42] <Riyonuk> Yes, but I heard, or read somewhere that if I download programs not from the repositores, they wont get updated
[03:42] <Ice_Wewe> rbil: well I guess Ubuntu is a 'toy system' cause it's sure be useful
[03:43] <Gothfunc> crimsun:  ah, i did look for that, but must be blind.  guess i should have used grep
[03:43] <bruenig> Riyonuk, what is audacious?
[03:43] <Ice_Wewe> rbil: it would also be useful for OS X when Apple's reccomended update screws your machine
[03:43] <Riyonuk> bruenig, :o a music player
[03:43] <Noob2million> hello to all in the room.. I am trying to install ubuntu on my 1 GB usb key so I can boot to ubuntu.. has anyone here done this yet ? How did it go ?
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, how about getting a clean gcong off your install cd?
[03:43] <funkdollar> Ice_Wewe, not at all my cpu is pretty low the proble is that desktop redrawing some times is slow
[03:43] <Ice_Wewe> Noob2million: tell us how it goes
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> Noob2million, nope, I use DSL off the stick
[03:43] <rance> is there a way in a bash script to detect the version of ubuntu a machine is running?
[03:43] <Riyonuk> bruenig, audacious-media-player.org
[03:43] <bruenig> Riyonuk, well there is no package in the ubuntu repos with that
[03:43] <Noob2million> so far I'm following several instuctions
[03:44] <crimsun> rance: parse ``lsb_release -r''
[03:44] <Ice_Wewe> funkdollar: no idea, sorry. In the test versions of Edgy the gnome-panel was QUITE broken
[03:44] <Riyonuk> why?
[03:44] <genben> Noob2million: hi, i am doing exactly the same thing, look here => http://nsaunders.wordpress.com/2006/11/06/a-usb-stick-grub-and-ubuntu/
[03:44] <Noob2million> does DSL have a graphic interface ?
[03:44] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, how could that be done ?
[03:44] <gop> !info kdetv
[03:44] <ubotu> kdetv: TV viewer for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.9-1 (edgy), package size 1356 kB, installed size 5336 kB
[03:44] <bruenig> Riyonuk, what version of linux are you running
[03:44] <Gothfunc> bruenig:  beryl isn't merely eyecandy imo
[03:44] <Riyonuk> ubuntu 6.10
[03:44] <bruenig> Gothfunc, well that was a simple explanation
[03:44] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: because no one has bothered to make a package
[03:44] <Noob2million> checking link now genben.. brb
[03:45] <Gothfunc> bruenig:  ok sure
[03:45] <genben> rbil: i think that Ice_Wewe may be a troll
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, er..... I assume there's a gcong.conf file somewhere in the .metacity folder if you can access that - it should be clean
[03:45] <Shocka311> ice_wewe: I typed all that but I don't know if it rtegistered.
[03:45] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, dont they just drag-and-drop the package into there repositores?
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, but that's a pure guess
[03:45] <bruenig> Riyonuk, ok do the following sudo bash -c "echo 'deb http://static.audacious-media-player.org/ubuntu edgy main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list" && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install audacious
[03:45] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: just a thought, sometimes people would like to know what kernel version you're running, type 'uname -a' to find out
[03:45] <bruenig> Riyonuk, do all of that
[03:45] <superkirbyartist> How can I enable the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?
[03:45] <Ice_Wewe> genben: rat!
[03:45] <genben> Ice_Wewe: ha
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> copy it to usb stick or something then replace I suppose
[03:45] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, i have been told many times never to mess with a working linux box :-)
[03:46] <Riyonuk> bruenig, why cant I just get the .deb from there site?
[03:46] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: type '/msg nickserv identify <password>' and if it tells you that you've already identified, then you're registered
[03:46] <bruenig> Riyonuk, do you want automatic updates?
[03:46] <superkirbyartist> I can't see the wallpaper or the icons.
[03:46] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, rubbish, if it's not broken, tweak it
[03:46] <Riyonuk> bruenig, yup
[03:46] <Ice_Wewe> genben: I'm just here spreading my prejudice, like everyone else. Leave me alone.
[03:46] <bruenig> Riyonuk, copy and paste that lovely command
[03:46] <genben> Ice_Wewe: K
[03:46] <rance> crimsun: cool man, thanks thats exactly what I needed
[03:46] <Ice_Wewe> genben: :P
[03:47] <Riyonuk> o_O look at all the text
[03:47] <superkirbyartist> Can someone please help me with enabling the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?  I see no wallpaper and cannot add any icons.
[03:47] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, that was definately not my opinion ! Any other alternatives for icon placement ? I see many docks in screenshots like mac osx dock
[03:47] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: it wrote back and said Identify ****
[03:47] <tirus89> h3xis, whats the command to get to a terminal
[03:47] <bruenig> Riyonuk, make sure you copy and paste it all at once on one line
[03:47] <funkdollar> What are those - gdesklets ?
[03:47] <quad3d> have you open up your eyes?
[03:47] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: sudo bash -c "echo 'deb http://static.audacious-media-player.org/ubuntu edgy main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list" && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install audacious
[03:47] <h3xis> tirus89, are you in X or what
[03:47] <genben> Noob2million: don't follow several instructions, bookmaark them all, then work through them 1 at a time, until it fails or succeeds
[03:48] <tirus89> h3xis, na, i just need to get a terminal
[03:48] <crimsun> Ice_Wewe: um, it's not that no has has bothered to make a package but that whoever is currently packaging it externally hasn't been arsed to go through our submission and review process.
[03:48] <Riyonuk> yeah...W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://static.audacious-media-player.org edgy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/static.audacious-media-player.org_ubuntu_dists_edgy_main_binary-i386_Packages)
[03:48] <Riyonuk> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[03:48] <Riyonuk> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[03:48] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: I figured if he saw it from everyone else in the room, he might get a clue
[03:48] <h3xis> tirus89, what are you in now?
[03:48] <superkirbyartist> Can someone please help me with enabling the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?  I see no wallpaper and cannot add any icons.
[03:48] <zekesmz> I've got an openvpn client question. I've established a connection to my office's openvpn server, got an IP address (on interface tap99)  but am still routing traffic over my 802.11g interface (ath0). does anyone know how I can change the default route so traffic flows through tap99 instead of ath0 ?

[03:48] <superkirbyartist> Can someone please help me with enabling the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?  I see no wallpaper and cannot add any icons.

[03:48] <ebroder> shut up
[03:48] <mcquaid> is anyone knowledgeable with dns servers using bind?
[03:48] <jvai> aihgt ppl
[03:48] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: SHUT UP
[03:48] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: run nautilus and go away
[03:48] <poorenglish> superkirbyartist: dont spam, try "nautilus"
[03:49] <Falstius> tirus89: ctrl+alt+f1 to get a terminal and alt-f7 to get back to the desktop works, or select terminal from the applications->accessories menu.
[03:49] <mcquaid> i'm following a howto and got it working for one domain name, but it falls apart when I try to set up multiple
[03:49] <Riyonuk> bruenig, yes, and it keeps mentioning gzip problems in  the middle of the huge block of text
[03:49] <FurryNemesis> superkirbyartist, metacity --enable do anything?
[03:49] <h3xis> tirus89, see what Falstius said
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: oops, someone took away your OPs
[03:49] <Shocka311> It just said >nicksrev< identify ****
[03:49] <Riyonuk> dont help him >_>
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: either that, or chanserv is on holiday
[03:49] <bruenig> I am not an op  was calling the ops
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: ah, ok
[03:49] <Riyonuk> I knew Automatix would cause a problem :p
[03:49] <crimsun> there's normally not a need to call the ops. We're around.
[03:49] <superkirbyartist> Nautilus is a FRIGGIN FILE MANAGER!
[03:49] <bruenig> !automatix | Riyonuk
[03:49] <ubotu> Riyonuk: 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
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: no shit
[03:50] <Riyonuk> superkirdbyartist, no wai
[03:50] <Riyonuk> XD
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: welcome to real life
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: how else did you want your wallpaper?
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: I think we have some idiot-on-a-platter left
[03:50] <superkirbyartist> So how is that supposed to help me in getting a wallpaper and icons?
[03:50] <Riyonuk> bruenig, sure would have been nice to know that before, you know like a sticky or something T_T
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: well for starters, that's sorta the whole PURPOSE of a file manager
[03:50] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: nautilus isn't -just- a file manager.
[03:50] <superkirbyartist> Ice_Wewe: Well windows doesn't "disable the desktop" just because it feels like it!
[03:51] <Riyonuk> ok
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: you're not going to have icons and a wallpaper just come out of no where
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: that's because what you see in Windows is a FILE MANAGER
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: that's because FINDER is a FILE MANAGER
[03:51] <superkirbyartist> Well they were there not long ago.
[03:51] <bruenig> Riyonuk, it is hard to nail down automatix problems, it is frustratingly hard
[03:51] <Riyonuk> bruenig, well I uninstall automatix, will it correct everything?
[03:51] <w3ccv> mcquaid, IIRC you have to set up multiple domains - and in the hints (?) file you name all servers
[03:51] <Riyonuk> -_-
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: Explorer is a FILE MANAGER
[03:51] <poorenglish> bruenig: nice joke xD
[03:51] <Falstius> Riyonuk: not likely :)
[03:51] <carutsu> hello, i'm looking for something for creating animations, something like flash
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: en.wikipedia.org/file_manager
[03:51] <w3ccv> mcquaid, each domain gets a seperate set of files
[03:51] <bruenig> Riyonuk, no, the damage has already been done
[03:52] <carutsu> is there a program? or must i surrender myself and run windows?
[03:52] <superkirbyartist> The point is, I had a problem in Xfce, and #xubuntu helped me better.
[03:52] <noelferreira> how can i find wath file is corrupted from a list of zip files with this error: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:52] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: oh, sorry, en.wikipedia.org/wili/File_Manager
[03:52] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes i think i've got that far, but what about rev.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa file?
[03:52] <mcquaid> how do you specify each there?
[03:52] <Falstius> carutsu: do you want to create flash or just animations?
[03:52] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, well perhaps if you weren't such a moron and spamming although for whatever reasons these idiots respond to it
[03:52] <superkirbyartist> Sorry, Ice_Wewe, learn how to spell.
[03:52] <carutsu> Falstius animations as easy as flash, not frame by frame
[03:53] <zekesmz> dang...my post got lost at the very start of superkirbyartists spam explosion. I'm looking for some tips on changing my default networking route to flow through a vpn interface instead of the default 802.11 one. any takers?
[03:53] <bruenig> well if Ice_Wewe wants to talk to you that is like killing two birds with one stone so keep going
[03:53] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: I will once you're less ignorant
[03:53] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig: If I say it twice it should be enough.  But I guess not so I repeated my post.
[03:53] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: ?
[03:53] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: / Ice_Wewe: kill the hostility, please.
[03:53] <Ice_Wewe> crimsun: sure
[03:53] <Riyonuk> but I just installed ubuntu
[03:53] <Riyonuk> I dont want to do it again
[03:53] <Riyonuk> I hate life >_>
[03:53] <Riyonuk> bruenig, *sigh* Ill do it
[03:53] <Falstius> carutsu: you could probably run the flash movie creater in wine (I can't remember the name, I haven't done it since highschool when we thought flash was new and cool and not just used for really annoying advertisements)
[03:53] <linux1> anyone heard about any  problems with sound recording in 6.10 being very low , as in mic gain is too low?
[03:53] <bruenig> Riyonuk, well if you just started it, shouldn't lose too much
[03:54] <Falstius> Riyonuk: atleast it doesn't take as long as installing windows :)
[03:54] <bruenig> Riyonuk, if you have problems installing something or want some functionality that doesn't exist just come in here, people will be able to find that for sure
[03:54] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I'm looking on anotheremachine wait-1
[03:54] <Riyonuk> bruenig, whats the proper way to do this? Just install over ubuntu partion? I have 2, ubuntu and windows
[03:54] <mcquaid> w3ccv, ok
[03:54] <crimsun> linux1: there are known issues depending on which codec you use.
[03:54] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: you can edit the Xfce config files to include your own custom background, if you wish
[03:54] <noelferreira> please i need urgent help
[03:54] <Riyonuk> Falstius, ubuntu takes longer to isntall than windows >_>
[03:54] <bruenig> Riyonuk, yeah format the ubuntu partition and go again
[03:54] <noelferreira> how can i find wath file is corrupted from a list of zip files with this error: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:54] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: but unless you glue the icons to your monitor, they aren't gonna show up cause they feel like it
[03:54] <linux1> well just the wav recorder
[03:54] <carutsu> Falstius so there's not any free app for creating animations? here's what i need, i'm doing a site, i want the buttons to be animated, however i will not use flash just for that so ill create the buttons and export them to gifs
[03:54] <bruenig> noelferreira, looks like file #1, perhaps it is the first file?
[03:54] <linux1> crimsun, sound recorder, wav
[03:55] <Riyonuk> ok
[03:55] <crimsun> linux1: no, the codec. See ``tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat''
[03:55] <superkirbyartist> I'm sorry, I guess my point wan't clear enough, but: all of a sudden my wallpaper and icons dissapeared, and I didn't ask for it.
[03:55] <Falstius> Riyonuk: no ... I can install ubuntu in 30 mins, windows takes a minimum of 2 hours and more for all the configuration.
[03:55] <Riyonuk> Ill be back in what 30min -_-
[03:55] <Ice_Wewe> linux1: what about cranking up the gain in gnome-volume-manager
[03:55] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: you never told us that
[03:55] <Riyonuk> Falstius, I dont use normal windows ;) it takes less than 2min
[03:55] <linux1> crimsun: ive installed w32codecs, and the gain is all the way up
[03:55] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: "Can someone please help me with enabling the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?  I see no wallpaper and cannot add any icons."
[03:56] <bruenig> Ice_Wewe, stop helping him good god, you only reinforce the idiots behavior
[03:56] <devkinetic> carutsu : you can use css or javscript on your site to make the animaded buttons
[03:56] <Falstius> Riyonuk: well if you restore from a disk image that is different and you could do the same with linux :-P
[03:56] <crimsun> linux1: no, not a software codec, a -hardware- codec. I gave you command, the output from which you need to tell me.
[03:56] <Riyonuk> Falstius, seems like ubuntu takes forever
[03:56] <linux1> ahh ok
[03:56] <crimsun> a command, even
[03:56] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: enabling the desktop... you could've been vaguer, and still been mad as to why we didn't understand what you were asking
[03:56] <Riyonuk> :p
[03:56] <carutsu> Falstius yea i know that, but the button has to move, so i need to make a gif i found that GAIM can do animations but FRAME by frame so i'd have to create like 12 frames, and i'm not a very artistic guy
[03:56] <superkirbyartist> bruenig: You will need to read COC again too, I guess.
[03:56] <Topslack> Is their some kind of problem right now with the mythtv packages? Apt-cache finds nothing and I've uncommented all of the sources
[03:56] <Falstius> carutsu: I don't know of any, but I'm not a graphics person.  Try searching synaptic.
[03:57] <carutsu> thank you
[03:57] <w3ccv> mcquaid, yes, you have to set up a file for rev.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa and populate it.  just like the others, I don't remember the exact syntax, but it soulds like you have the how-to and that _should_ guide you :-)
[03:57] <mcquaid> w3ccv, i was following this guide, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=236093&highlight=bind

[03:57] <superkirbyartist> Ice_Wewe: Hello?  Have you ever had a job?  Because usually you would treat your customers better.
[03:57] <genben> has anyone successfully installed ubuntu onto a 1GB USB drive? i have gotten it to boot up with GRUB, then i get the BlackSOD
[03:57] <bruenig> !attitude
[03:57] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[03:57] <mcquaid> works fine, for one, still haven't tracked down where I'm screwing up with multiple domains
[03:57] <crimsun> linux1: ok, from the output of ``amixer'', do you see a Mic Boost?
[03:57] <linux1> yes
[03:57] <kernele> a LiveUSB will be nice.
[03:58] <devkinetic> carutsu : their may be a way to do them in gimp or some kind of extension for it
[03:58] <Falstius> superkirbyartist: if you want help for free, it is best to be polite.
[03:58] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: no, I like to work in the back, that way I can let other people deal with the idiots... sorry, couldn't think of a better term
[03:58] <superkirbyartist> Guess what?  Your "job" is to be a volounteer, then.
[03:58] <mcquaid> w3ccv, when I try to restart bind9 i get rndc: connect failed: connection refused
[03:58] <linux1> crimsun: yes
[03:58] <mcquaid> wasn't getting that with just the one
[03:58] <genben> Ice_Wewe: i like your style, or lack thereof
[03:58] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, it is not my job, and I will help if I know, If nobody knows what you are asking or how to help it, they won't respond, what else do you want
[03:58] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: [sarcasm]  well good luck getting help with your next problem [/sarcasm] 
[03:58] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, if nobody knows there is nothing they can do
[03:59] <Ice_Wewe> genben: thanks, I've been told I'm a no BS guy. If you're computers dead, I won't pad it
[03:59] <funkdollar> thanks folks ...
[03:59] <crimsun> linux1: is it muted?
[03:59] <genben> Ice_Wewe: haha, cool
[03:59] <Ice_Wewe> genben: sorry Sir, your computer is totally dead, no repairing it, get a new one
[03:59] <superkirbyartist> bruenig and Ice_Wewe, if you don't understand, you just ask to elaborate.
[03:59] <Ice_Wewe> genben: ...Next
[03:59] <crimsun> linux1: please pastebin your ``amixer'' output
[03:59] <carutsu> devkinetic: ok, thank you i'll search to see what i can find
[03:59] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, nobody in this channel understood, you want 898 requests to elaborate?
[03:59] <aleka> xdocker question.. when trying to dra\g and drop apps in the docker, I am getting an error "Grabbing the mouse failed with "AlreadyGrabbed"
[04:00] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: well, when you spam the same vague message 7 times, we don't really feel like asking the spammer for MORE details
[04:00] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, you realize the impracticality of such a policy
[04:00] <devkinetic> why is my atp-get going 35 kbs from us.arcive.ubuntu.com
[04:00] <aleka> sorry that would be kxdocker and not xdocker
[04:00] <genben> devkinetic: heavy server load?
[04:00] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, the policy is, if you don't know, you don't say anything. People had no idea so they didn't respond.
[04:00] <superkirbyartist> So much for "humanity to others"
[04:00] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: patience is a virtue
[04:00] <w3ccv> mcquaid, Looking at the site you pointed to - yes, follow the example for the zone 1.128.192.inaddr.arpa  It's not someting you really need - it's your own local network and unless you do a reverse lookup for a local machine you'll never use it.
[04:00] <noelferreira> bruenig: i have one file .zip and other 7 files .z01 .... .z02 ........ .z07 . my question is wich file is #1?
[04:00] <Falstius> carutsu: there is a program called "gem" that might be what you're looking for.  Or blender, it is for 3D stuff but might do 2D also.
[04:00] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: well, we'll be glad to be humane to others when they aren't complete idiots with ADHD
[04:01] <devkinetic> genben it must be becuase when it grabs stuff from any other server im getting 2mb/s
[04:01] <linux1> crimsun pastebin url?
[04:01] <crimsun> linux1: see the topic.
[04:01] <Topslack> Can anyone offer any help as to why I can't seem to get apt-get install mythtv to find any packages?
[04:01] <carutsu> Falstius thank you!! i'll look for them
[04:01] <Ice_Wewe> genben: how was that?
[04:01] <crimsun> Topslack: enable multiverse.
[04:01] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, nobody knows, this is linux, go post on the forums, go to #ubuntuforums or any other place. We aren't paid, we are in here helping to the best of our ability. We were humane, we didn't say you were a stupid noob who should know how to freaking run his desktop. We simply didn't respond because we didn't know how to solve your problem
[04:01] <genben> devkinetic: most likely
[04:01] <superkirbyartist> Ice_Wewe, SHUT UP!
[04:01] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: after you
[04:01] <genben> Ice_Wewe: succint, but i think you are labouring your point
[04:02] <crimsun> ok, that's really enough.
[04:02] <enat> hey, i'm trying to burn an svcd in bin/cue format, but i keep getting "index beyond end of track" errors .. after looking at the cue, i see that there are indexes beyond (time wise) the end of the video stream
[04:02] <superkirbyartist> bruenig: Take a look at 10:00:59.
[04:02] <Topslack> crimsun: I have, I've un commented everything in the sources.list and run at apt-get update but still nothing
[04:02] <enat> any idea how i can get it to burn?
[04:02] <noelferreira> how can i find wath file is corrupted from a list of zip files with this error: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[04:02] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: please use /ignore, don't push your luck
[04:02] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig we may live in different timestamps.
[04:02] <main> could someone help me out with an error i get when i try and run adept after i install it
[04:02] <linux1> crimsun: its pasted
[04:02] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, also if you wish to pose evidence, it had better be before your 15 flooding posts in a row
[04:02] <crimsun> linux1: url?
[04:03] <aleka> has anyone in here used Kxdocker?
[04:03] <johnw188> how do I get the volume up/down keys on my imac to change the side channel instead of the PCM channel?
[04:03] <linux1> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/514/
[04:03] <devkinetic> how do i chnage my atp-get mirror?
[04:03] <superkirbyartist> Why are you guys pointlessly debating instead of helping me out?
[04:03] <johnw188> devkinetic: it's in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:03] <carutsu> Falastius just gem?
[04:04] <enat> because they feel no obligation? who knows :)
[04:04] <Steven_M_> hi all
[04:04] <genben> devkinetic: /etc/apt/sources.list => add a Country Code in front of every archive.
[04:04] <johnw188> hi steve!
[04:04] <bruenig> devkinetic, go into your /etc/apt/sources.list and chance the two letter country code before "archive.ubuntu.com"
[04:04] <bruenig> change*
[04:04] <crimsun> linux1: try increasing your VIA DXS elements.
[04:04] <genben> devkinetic: ie, .au for Australia, .fr for France, then run apt-get update
[04:04] <linux1> crimsun: edit a specific alsa file?
[04:05] <superkirbyartist> And what's so complicated about "No wallpaper, no icons"?
[04:05] <genben> bruenig: he is currently using us archive, so needs to *add* a CC
[04:05] <bruenig> aleka, I haven't used kxdocker
[04:05] <crimsun> linux1: amixer set 'VIA DXS',0 90% && amixer set 'VIA DXS',1 90% && amixer set 'VIA DXS',2 90% && amixer set 'VIA DXS',3 90%
[04:06] <nolimitsoya> sorry for asking, but the manpages confuses me; how do i print todays date (CCYYMMDD) and time (HHmm) without spaces, padded with -'s, using 'date'?
[04:06] <devkinetic> thanks everyone, id be lost if it were not for all the help ive gotten here. goodnight everyone
[04:06] <genben> night
[04:06] <linux1> crimsun: ok let me start up sound recorder again
[04:06] <enat> anybody in here familiar with burning svcd's ?
[04:07] <nolimitsoya> enat, k3b can help you :)
[04:07] <mcquaid> w3ccv, ok i think i made a little progress, i can dig the domains i set up. but they don't respond to ping.
[04:07] <enat> it can't, as it spits out errors :(
[04:07] <nolimitsoya> enat, devede might too...
[04:07] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what sound device my volume buttons control?
[04:07] <linux1> crimsun: yes that seems to have improved it, thank you
[04:07] <enat> i've got a bin/cue, but when i try to burn it, i get "index beyond end of track" errors
[04:07] <w3ccv> mcquaid, see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/515/
[04:07] <crimsun> linux1: great.
[04:07] <enat> i'm not sure what i've done wrong
[04:07] <enat> lol
[04:07] <w3ccv> mcquaid, no ping response - sounds like a firewall problem
[04:08] <murader> hey all
[04:08] <Falstius> enat: are you burning the bin/cue as an image or just copying them to the CD .. and they aren't for a DVD are they? ;)
[04:09] <w3ccv> mcquaid, that is either a firewall or a routing problem.  do you have routing setup for them - netstat -rn should tell you
[04:09] <murader> does Ubuntu work with the jmicron-Chipset
[04:09] <linux1> crimsun: thanks for your help once again, im out
[04:09] <crimsun> np
[04:09] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what the volume controls on my keyboard control?
[04:09] <mcquaid> w3ccv, actually  they are on the same machine
[04:09] <enat> i'm using cdrecord (and various frontends) to try and burn the bin to cd with the cue
[04:09] <mcquaid> w3ccv, so it can't be a firewall/router issue
[04:09] <w3ccv> mcquaid, also is resolv.conf working -
[04:10] <carutsu> i found about Ktoon... its not part of KDE?
[04:10] <devkinetic> hey guys i have firefox 1.5.0.9 how do i update it to 2.0?
[04:10] <bimberi> nolimitsoya: 'date +%Y%m%d%H%M'  however the "padding with -'s", not sure
[04:10] <nolimitsoya> bimberi, thank you :) ill try working from that :)
[04:10] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I really mean does resolv.conf exist and point to the correct nameseerver - remember no space after the name server's address
[04:10] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes resolve.conf works fine.  if I dig the 4 domains I setup they work, and any others get routed through my isps dns
[04:11] <bimberi> nolimitsoya: kk :)
[04:11] <Steven_M_> are there any wvdial users here?
[04:12] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what the volume controls on my keyboard control?
[04:12] <w3ccv> mcquaid, Try it with nslookup - not dig - they work differently. Dig will work where nslookup willnot.
[04:12] <devkinetic> hey guys i have firefox 1.5.0.9 how do i update it to 2.0?
[04:12] <w3ccv> mcquaid, it's been about 5 years since I had to debug a nameserver problem - it's coming back slow.
[04:13] <mcquaid> ok, i get: Server:         192.168.1.100 (which is this box's ip)
[04:13] <mcquaid> Address:        192.168.1.100#53
[04:13] <genben> devkinetic: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade firefox
[04:13] <bruenig> devkinetic, you have to do it manually unless you want to upgrade to edgy 6.10
[04:13] <mcquaid> ** server can't find zingotel.com: SERVFAIL
[04:13] <bruenig> devkinetic, that command won't work
[04:14] <devkinetic> bruenig that won't? so how do i go about it
[04:14] <genben> bruenig: whoops, i am on edgy eft, sorry
[04:14] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what the volume controls on my keyboard control?
[04:14] <w3ccv> mcquaid, what does resolv.conf have for the "nameserver" line
[04:14] <mcquaid> search zingotel.com
[04:14] <mcquaid> nameserver 192.168.1.100
[04:14] <w3ccv> mcquaid, s/line/lines/
[04:15] <Jbirk> How do I install the mozilla-mlayer plugin
[04:15] <Jbirk> on Edgy
[04:15] <Jbirk> It seems Totem is default
[04:15] <mcquaid> after that i have my isp's dns.  when I comment out my isp's dns the domain i set up won't ping
[04:15] <bruenig> devkinetic, you have to go to getfirefox.com get their version, extract it and then run the firefox script inside of the extracted directory
[04:15] <bimberi> andrew_: try right-click -> Preferences on the Volume applet
[04:15] <nolimitsoya> bimberi, just adding a '-' between the %foo's did the trick. :) what confused me was the manpages use of '+FORMAT' in place of something like '+foo' for passing the %foo's. >_< i guess im too tired to think straight...
[04:15] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[04:16] <nolimitsoya> !hi | Azhi_Dahaka
[04:16] <bruenig> Jbirk, sudo apt-get remove totem-mozilla && sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[04:16] <ubotu> Azhi_Dahaka: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:16] <w3ccv> mcquaid, and bind is running?  try restaring it - kill -HUP (pid of bind)
[04:16] <bimberi> nolimitsoya: ah, cool.  Sometimes you just need to see an example :)
[04:16] <Akuma_> i need to find a driver for a dial-up modem (a  winmodem i think). how should i go about doing that? linmodems.org isn't all that helpfull when you don't already know how to go about doing it
[04:16] <devkinetic> can i upgrade to 6.10 from 6.06 to 6.10 without alot of trouble?
[04:16] <mcquaid> ok
[04:16] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm trying the ubuntu 6.06 livecd but the wireless doesn't  work
[04:16] <andrew_> bimberi: i can do that, and change what the volume applet controls, but that has no effect on keyboard buttons
[04:16] <bimberi> andrew_: kk, guessed wrong then :|
[04:17] <andrew_> anyone: how do you install the Jack library in WINE?
[04:17] <andrew_> bimberi: thanks anyways
[04:17] <enat> [sarcasm]  thanks for attempting to help guys! [/sarcasm] 
[04:17] <blameless> Azhi_Dahaka: what card do you have?
[04:17] <andrew_> Azhi: why don't you try 6.10?
[04:17] <mcquaid> ok i restarted it again, same thing, it'll dig but not ping
[04:17] <superkirbyartist> STUPID BRUENIG SENT ME A VIRUS!  NOW ALL MY COMPUTER IS DEAD AND I NEED TO INSTALL UBUNTU AGAIN!  WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU GUYS?
[04:18] <bruenig> riiiight
[04:18] <devkinetic> lol
[04:18] <bruenig> a linux virus
[04:18] <bimberi> sigh
[04:18] <devkinetic> oxymorom
[04:18] <andrew_> anyone: how do you install the Jack library in WINE?
[04:18] <genben> devkinetic: yes, in /etc/apt/sources.list, change all the terms 'dapper' to 'edgy', run sudo apt-get update, then run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, correct bruenig?
[04:18] <superkirbyartist> BRUENIG TOLD ME TO "SUDO RM *.*"!  WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?
[04:18] <nolimitsoya> superkirbyartist, i highly doubt that, unless you are referring to automatix :P
[04:18] <xtknight> lol
[04:18] <w3ccv> mcquaid, dig just looks at the nameserver, ping trys a connection - try pinging the IPaddress -
[04:19] <bimberi> that'll only remove files with dots in them
[04:19] <nolimitsoya> superkirbyartist, ah, well in that case... use your head next time :P
[04:19] <bruenig> well first off SUDO RM wouldn't work
[04:19] <bruenig> seeing as those commands both don't exist
[04:19] <Falstius> bruenig: "#! /bin/sh \n echo "Enter your password to see nekid women" \n sudo rm -rf /"
[04:19] <xtknight> well you got a secure OS, you got a secure browser, the only thing missing is a brain
[04:19] <xtknight> :D
[04:19] <adam> 6.06 i was able to enter safe graphics mode and install, it doesnt work with 6.10, and my xorg.conf doesnt work with 6.10 either so i cant get x to work.. any ideas?
[04:19] <genben> devkinetic: or try http://www.debianadmin.com/upgrade-ubuntu-dapper-to-ubuntu-edgy-eft.html
[04:19] <superkirbyartist> THIS IS BULL$4!T !
[04:19] <nolimitsoya> Falstius, +1 for genious!
[04:19] <bruenig> the ops really should take care of this nut
[04:19] <w3ccv> mcquaid, By not pinging you mean it times out? or other errors
[04:19] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes i can ping this box by ip address
[04:19] <pagefault> it's easy
[04:20] <pagefault> open your sources.list
[04:20] <superkirbyartist> BRUENIG IS AN IDIOT!
[04:20] <pagefault> change dapper to edgy
[04:20] <pagefault> save
[04:20] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: dude, last warning.
[04:20] <pagefault> apt-get update/dist-upgrade
[04:20] <mcquaid> w3ccv, no i get an 'unknown host' error
[04:20] <nolimitsoya> Falstius, that puts darwins theory of evolution in practice :)
[04:20] <superkirbyartist> WHAT DID I DO WRONG?  IT'S THIS KID BRUENIG!
[04:20] <superkirbyartist> HE DELETED ALL MY HARD DRIVE!
[04:20] <blameless> must be a slow day in ottawa
[04:20] <mcquaid> stop with the caps plz
[04:20] <nolimitsoya> superkirbyartist, no, you did
[04:20] <bruenig> !caps
[04:20] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[04:20] <andrew_> anyone: how do you install Libjack.so?????????
[04:20] <crimsun> andrew_: needed to compile something?
[04:20] <devkinetic> genben: thanks for that link
[04:21] <crimsun> andrew_: install libjack0.100.0-dev
[04:21] <mersco> What configures the icons of the partitions displayed on the gnome desktop?
[04:21] <superkirbyartist> !Why do the people in Ubuntu fraud you by making you DELETE ALL YOUR HARD DRIVE!
[04:21] <crimsun> argh.
[04:21] <devkinetic> we don't
[04:21] <superkirbyartist> devkinetic: I guess Bruenig did.  Why don't you ban it?
[04:21] <nolimitsoya> superkirbyartist, survival of the fittest. now, let your lesson be learnt and go lick your wounds
[04:22] <crimsun> please, don't feed the trolls. Move along.
[04:22] <andrew_> crimsun: no i just want to use WINE
[04:22] <blameless> andrew_: why do you need jack to use wine?
[04:23] <andrew_> blameless: well its telling me i need libjack.so when i run it, I think i may need it to run a program and get sound
[04:23] <xtknight> is there a flac plugin for winamp in the repos?
[04:23] <cyphase> Does anyone have a WiFi card that supports 802.11g out of the box on Ubuntu?
[04:23] <xtknight> not winamp...xmms
[04:23] <Cuddles_in_KY> evening all.
[04:23] <w3ccv> mcquaid, thinking...  the nameserver answers dig with the correct info, it answers nslookup with correct info, but doesn't return correct info to applicatons?  Have you tried someting like telnet ?
[04:23] <blameless> andrew_: mine also complains about jack, but it'll use OSS or ALSA without a problem
[04:23] <andrew_> cyphase: I have 2 :-)
[04:23] <nolimitsoya> xtknight, doesnt 'flac' work?
[04:23] <blameless> cyphase: yes
[04:23] <Falstius> andrew_: did you try running winecfg and setting it to use oss and alsa?
[04:23] <Cuddles_in_KY> esoteric question... does anyone know how to get a parallel port zip drive working?
[04:23] <w3ccv> cyphase, yes, my Linksys card works.
[04:23] <Steven_M_> when I try to connect to the net using wvdial I get an error saying that pppd died while trying to athenticate our selves to peer. Even though the user name and password is correct. Does anyone know how to fix it?
[04:24] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: put your coffee cup on top of it?
[04:24] <andrew_> Falstius: yes I tried that, is there anything else i need to do? do I need to restart X?
[04:24] <Samus_Aran> does anyone know if there is somewhere that I can get a more recent version of Ghostscript ?  I need at least 8.5x for my printer and Ubuntu has the 8.1x version, and don't want to install it via source as I want it available to all my apps
[04:24] <mersco> I've mounted a partition via system->administration->disks, but the icon doesn't show up on my desktop ... how do I make it show up on the desktop?
[04:24] <xtknight> nolimitsoya: never mind, found it at xmms-flac
[04:24] <Gromit103> Hey, how do you kill a process in ubuntu?
[04:24] <mcquaid> w3ccv, well actually nslookup gives me a SERVFAIL error
[04:24] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, while i enjoy a good laugh as much as anyone else, i'm kind of desperate right now. i -need- the data from those disks
[04:24] <Falstius> andrew_: I would think that's all it takes.  I certainly didn't restart xwindows.
[04:25] <mcquaid> w3ccv, I'll paste my relevant files to pastebin, maybe something jumps out at you if you don't mind looking
[04:25] <ryanakca> why can't my dapper live cd (from shipit) resize the ntfs partition so that I can install k/ubuntu?
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: you need the pid of the process and then you can kill it from the terminal.  complete freezes are rare and usually you can terminate an app by pressing X like 5 times...itll prompt you with a force quit
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: kill <pid>
[04:26] <andrew_> Falstius: So I should check the OSS and ALSA box?
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: killall <processname>
[04:26] <Falstius> andrew_:that's what I did
[04:26] <w3ccv> mcquaid, something in the files isn't quite right. bind is VERY pick about the syntax - comma/period and semi-colon/color errors are common. I once had a Network Ops Center working about 3 hours thll they found a bad semicolon.
[04:26] <daning> hello
[04:26] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: google gave me this: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/text/ZIP-Drive
[04:26] <Gromit103> xtknight:  Thx, what if I'm in a full screen app?
[04:26] <andrew_> Falstius: Do i have to config anything in the OS sound settings?
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: switch out to the virtual consoles and use the kill command
[04:26] <w3ccv> mcquaid, yes paste it, won't qurantee anyting though
[04:26] <Falstius> andrew_: do you have also installed?
[04:27] <daning> dapper or edgy?
[04:27] <Falstius> er alsa
[04:27] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, yes, i've tried that. that's why i'm here.
[04:27] <mcquaid> heh, ya i already noticed an omitted ; but didn't solve it
[04:27] <Gromit103> xtknight ok, thanks
[04:27] <andrew_> Falstius: Ummm, im not sure what you mean
[04:27] <mcquaid> ok thx, one sec and i'll paste it
[04:27] <xtknight> Gromit103: Ctrl+Alt+F1~F6 are virtual terminals.  F7~F12 are your desktop 'consoles'...(usually just f7)
[04:27] <Falstius> andrew_: try "sudo apt-get install alsa-oss"
[04:28] <Falstius> andrew_: that's also usefull, along with a few other tweaks, to getting decent flash sound in firefox.
[04:28] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: it didn't work?
[04:28] <andrew_> Falstius: K just did, should I restart  anything?
[04:29] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY:  those tldp howtos are always incredibly out of date.
[04:29] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, if it had worked i wouldn't be here.
[04:29] <Falstius> andrew_: should 'just work'

[04:30] <ekaeka> Hello, I have a problem when trying to install the w32codecs package from terminal
[04:30] <xtknight> ekaeka: elaborate
[04:30] <andrew_> nope. didnt werk
[04:30] <andrew_> lemme restart X
[04:31] <ekaeka> xtknight: I use sudo apt-get install w32codecs and it returns:
[04:31] <Harkonnen20> I've got a question.
[04:31] <xtknight> ekaeka: pastebin! :p
[04:31] <ryanakca> how do I make my dapper live cd (from shipit) resize the ntfs partition so that I can install k/ubuntu?
[04:31] <Harkonnen20> Im trying to run the live cd of 6.1 and when I boot with the disc and hit start, it goes through some loading stuff then gives me an x server error.
[04:31] <Jbirk> Thanks
[04:31] <ekaeka> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/517/
[04:31] <Harkonnen20> I don't know what to do after that.
[04:31] <ekaeka> yes yes :| give me a moment
[04:31] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, thanks, but no joy. neither module exists apparently.
[04:31] <mcquaid> w3ccv, http://pastebin.ca/306187
[04:32] <blameless> Harkonnen20: what video card?
[04:32] <ekaeka> Ive gone to the ftp link where the package was located on a dev blog, but it looks to be down..so
[04:32] <xtknight> ekaeka: type '   uname -m   '
[04:32] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: it exists on my system
[04:33] <Harkonnen20> It is a Radeon 9200se
[04:33] <ekaeka> xtknight: it returns i686
[04:33] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, good for you. it doesn't on mine.
[04:33] <andrew_> didnt work, I mean this is a simple program, its PokerStars, ha
[04:33] <xtknight> ryanakca: you may have to download a gparted livecd to do that reliably
[04:33] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: I'm just pointing out that it should be there and should work.  Are you running dapper?
[04:33] <Harkonnen20> i've played pokerstars :P
[04:33] <ryanakca> xtknight: kk, thanks
[04:33] <andrew_> Harkonnen20: using WINE?
[04:33] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, edgy
[04:34] <Harkonnen20> using windows
[04:34] <andrew_> crap
[04:34] <Harkonnen20> <-----linux noob
[04:34] <xtknight> ekaeka: i dont know, i get the same thing though im using 64bit
[04:34] <kitche> andrew_: that works in wine but when you go to a table you lose the lobby for goofd
[04:34] <andrew_> <---ditto
[04:34] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: really!? Hm, I have them on this Dapper install.  So 'sudo modprobe imm' (or ppa) doesn't work?
[04:34] <kitche> andrew_: that works in wine but when you go to a table you lose the lobby for good*
[04:34] <andrew_> kitche: awesome, but how do i get sound!!!?
[04:34] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, both came up with ''no such module''
[04:34] <toM|vendettA> can someone help me? i would like a home folder icon on my desktop, but dont know how to get one o.O
[04:34] <ekaeka> xtknight: yes, I believe the location of the package is unavailable, see here: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/04/libdvdcss2-and-w32codecs-for-ubuntu/
[04:34] <kyhx> im wonder about wine right now.... were do you put the windows binary to use wine
[04:35] <xtknight> ekaeka: ahh ok.
[04:35] <toM|vendettA> Nevermind, an idiot I am.
[04:35] <andrew_> everyone : there needs to be a ubuntu skypecast, 24/7
[04:35] <ekaeka> xtknight: would you know of an alternative way to retrieve the package besides that ftp?
[04:35] <xtknight> a what?
[04:35] <andrew_> xtknight: google it
[04:35] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: what's the output of 'uname -r' ?
[04:36] <andrew_> kitche: awesome, but how do i get sound!!!?
[04:36] <Harkonnen20> blameless it is a ATi Radeon 9200se video card.
[04:36] <ekaeka> perhaps try and use an rpm..?
[04:36] <blameless> hmm, i'm not sure why that would have a problem
[04:36] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, 2.6.17-10-generic
[04:36] <jasin> hi
[04:37] <kitche> andrew_: there is a work around with the lobby bug on wine's page hmm to get sound not sure exactly well you will have to do winecfg most likely to get it you had sound outside of wine?
[04:37] <xtknight> ekaeka: well packages.ubuntu.com doesnt have it at all
[04:37] <jasin> 2.6.17-10-generic is 3 versions behind the latest
[04:37] <andrew_> ktche: yeah i get sound out of wine
[04:37] <xtknight> ekaeka: and neither does debian
[04:38] <xtknight> ekaeka: http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/
[04:38] <Harkonnen20> neither do i
[04:38] <kyhx> !wine
[04:38] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:38] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: that is strange.  packages.ubuntu.com tells me you should have /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/ppa.ko (and imm.ko) :/
[04:38] <ekaeka> xtknight: ah, wonderful :)
[04:38] <capiira> hmmmm hi how well does a ubuntu upgrade work?
[04:38] <Shocka311> can anyone tell me if there is an easier way to setup my pc to dual boot Win if on a seprate HD than to erase Linux off my master, install Win onto my master then Reinstall linux on my slave?
[04:38] <kitche> andrew_: according to the wine appdb sound works
[04:39] <andrew_> ktche: I mean, sound works outside of WINE, but I kind of want to disable my onboard sound, because I have a soundblaster, can I do that?
[04:39] <capiira> i mean from an older version to newer
[04:39] <andrew_> kitche: I think that may be the problem
[04:39] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, suggestions on fixing this?
[04:39] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: It is included in linux-image-2.6.17-10-386
[04:39] <d1gita1> i am writing a shell script and i need to change volume in mplayer. i have a FIFO set up and working  (echo "pause" > mplayer_pipe  works fine)  but i cannot seem to set the volume with 'echo "volume 50" > mplayer_pipe'  .  Any ideas?
[04:39] <xtknight> andrew_: set it as the default alsa device
[04:39] <capiira> like 5.x to 6.x to 7.x
[04:39] <nolimitsoya> andrew_ yes you can disable your old soundcard, in you bios settings
[04:39] <xtknight> andrew_: asoundconf set-default-card <CardName>
[04:39] <xtknight> andrew_: asoundconf list    to get a list of CardNames
[04:40] <andrew_> thx
[04:40] <w3ccv> mcquaid, still there?   you MUST modify the first line where it says do not modify the following.  The first number is the serial number - and should be incremented with each modification
[04:40] <Harkonnen20> blameless i also have onboard video, but it is disabled
[04:40] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, i'm sorry, but i know what my system is telling me. and based on your primary advice to me, i'm a bit wary of what else you offer.
[04:40] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm trying the ubuntu 6.06 livecd but the wireless doesn't work
[04:40] <mcquaid> ok let me look
[04:40] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: difficult as it seems that you don't have a full install.  Are those files present?
[04:40] <minerale> Greetings I just installed vncserver and it works, I stareted up vncserver but gnome does not load I get an error: Gnome-session: you're already running a session manager
[04:41] <Shocka311> anyony have an answer, please tell me if there is an easier way cause I'm about to erase my hard drive
[04:41] <w3ccv> mcquaid, and the domain nist.gov.db is not the .db domain - but probably not part of the current problem
[04:41] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, not that i can find.
[04:41] <Cuddles_in_KY> physically not there.
[04:41] <andrew_> anyone : my OSS doesnt work, could that be the problem when using WINE?
[04:41] <klees> is anyone using an ATI 9800 Pro with the latest 8.32.5 drivers???
[04:42] <xtknight> !anyone | klees
[04:42] <ubotu> klees: 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?
[04:42] <jasin> dont use OSS use Alsa
[04:42] <jasin> !alsa
[04:42] <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
[04:43] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: sanity check here (mine): this is i386 ?
[04:43] <mcquaid> w3ccv, so the number 2006081401 has to be incremented by 1 in each of the seperate db zone files?
[04:43] <Azhi_Dahaka> hmm
[04:43] <Azhi_Dahaka> guys
[04:43] <andrew_> ubotu: im not having problems with sound, but im having problems with sound and WINE
[04:43] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm trying the ubuntu 6.06 livecd but the wireless doesn't work
[04:43] <ubotu> im: mail/news handling commands and Perl modules. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:148-5 (edgy), package size 310 kB, installed size 1260 kB
[04:43] <coz_> hey all ... by chance... is there a command to list recent updates?
[04:43] <klees> i have a problem with GL Screensavers after the latest set of updates...  anyone experiencing problems as well?
[04:43] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, yes.
[04:43] <klees> GL screensavers are no longer accelerated
[04:43] <kyhx> Were is the c drive located at that wine creates?
[04:43] <xtknight> klees: is anything else accelerated/

[04:44] <klees> even though fglrxinfo shows fglrx enabled
[04:44] <marcel__> hi
[04:44] <Falstius> kyhx: by default, .wine/drive_c
[04:44] <kitche> kyhx: ~/.wine/drive_c
[04:44] <xtknight> klees: does glxinfo show direct rendering yes (assuming you're not using xgl)?
[04:44] <klees> xtknight: fglrxinfo and glxinfo show i have the drivers loaded
[04:44] <klees> xtknight: not using xgl
[04:44] <Azhi_Dahaka> but doesn't it beats the ideal of the livecd?
[04:44] <jasin> wine sucks
[04:44] <xtknight> klees: is glxinfo fast?
[04:44] <xtknight> klees: err, glxgears
[04:44] <kyhx> Falstius,  kitche  thanks you
[04:44] <w3ccv> mcquaid, yes, will typically you would make it 2007010401 for the first today, the second mod would be 2007010402, ... reflecting the dat and which rev it is.  just so the nuber is higher
[04:45] <klees> xtknight: the gl screensavers are no longer accelerated after the latest updates.  everything was fine prior
[04:45] <w3ccv> mcquaid, s/dat/date/
[04:45] <klees> xtknight: yes
[04:45] <jasin> run windows not wine
[04:45] <marcel__> hi guys I have a Gateway mx 3215 and ubuntu but NO SOUND
[04:45] <HorD> so?
[04:45] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: does 'dpkg -L linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic | grep ppa.lo' output anything?
[04:45] <xtknight> klees: hmm i'm not sure why that would be
[04:45] <d1gita1> i am writing a shell script and i need to change volume in mplayer. i have a FIFO set up and working  (echo "pause" > mplayer_pipe  works fine)  but i cannot seem to set the volume with 'echo "volume 50" > mplayer_pipe'  .  Any ideas?
[04:45] <coz_> marcel__, do you know th manufacturer of the onborad sound card?
[04:45] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: oops, ppa.ko
[04:45] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I think lines 98 and 110 should end in '.'s
[04:45] <marcel__> I think it is VIA
[04:45] <jasin> !alsa | marcel__
[04:45] <klees> xtknight: im not sure what broke what in the latest set of updates
[04:45] <ubotu> marcel__: 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
[04:46] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, nothing, on either version of that command.
[04:46] <marcel__> When I play music or watch a video I can see the time moving, but NO sound
[04:46] <coz_> marcel__,  well check under system preferences sound I believe let me look
[04:46] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: how about without the "| grep..."
[04:46] <xtknight> klees: run a screensaver manually from /usr/lib/xscreensaver/gl*...    same thing?

[04:46] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes I notcied the missing . as well wasn't sure
[04:46] <mcquaid> i'll try that
[04:46] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: (should be lots of lines)
[04:46] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, nothing.
[04:47] <w3ccv> mcquaid, bind is funny - iirc it stores some cached files that even restarting does't cure  so that serial numbr is important.
[04:47] <marcel__> my sound volume is muted constantly
[04:47] <coz_> marcel__, yeah go under system/preferences/sound
[04:47] <jasin> bind is a huge security risk
[04:47] <klees> xtknight: running it manually looks fine
[04:47] <coz_> marcel__, under the devices tab and the sound playuback pull down see if the via is listed
[04:47] <klees> hmm
[04:47] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: how about 'dpkg -L linux-image-$(uname -r)' ?
[04:47] <xtknight> klees: odd.  sure nothing else like updatedb is running while ur idleness/screensaver gets triggered?
[04:48] <marcel__> just a sec.
[04:48] <klees> xtknight: positive
[04:48] <coz_> marcel__, no that may not be the place
[04:48] <jasin> BIND 4 and BIND 8 have had a large number of serious security vulnerabilities over the years.
[04:48] <andrew_> anyone: how specify what device the volume controls on a keyboard effect?
[04:48] <klees> i have gkrellm monitoring with Top
[04:48] <coz_> marcel open a terminal and type alsamixer
[04:48] <marcel__> No it is just blank no soundcard
[04:48] <xtknight> klees: what happens if you just preview a screensaver?  does it work then also?
[04:48] <ryjax> exit
[04:48] <xtknight> klees: (in the gnome screensaver preferences dialog)
[04:48] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, tons of stuff. still scrolling
[04:48] <coz_> marcel__, well then lsamixer in the terminal will come back wihtout sound card also
[04:49] <marcel__> yes, I just tried
[04:49] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: try adding the "| grep" to that
[04:49] <crimsun> marcel__: lspci -nv   pastebinned, please.
[04:49] <coz_> marcel__, you may hve to go to the alsa site under manyfaturers and see if that particular chipset is aupported
[04:49] <klees> xtknight: preview shows the screensaver not accelrated
[04:49] <jasin> marcel, unmute it then
[04:49] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, nothing, again.
[04:49] <coz_> marcel__, liten to crimson
[04:49] <coz_> :)
[04:49] <klees> xtknight: the same screensaver i ran manually
[04:49] <xtknight> klees: ok, a screensaver service is to blame.  im not sure which one X or gnome uses,  xscreensaver maybe or something like that, i know there's osme service
[04:49] <marcel__> I cannot, if I try to move it up, id goes down
[04:49] <marcel__> who is crimson?
[04:49] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: did you do anything like trying to recompile your kernel?
[04:50] <crimsun> marcel__: meaning me.
[04:50] <andrew_> anyone: how specify what device the volume controls on a keyboard effect?
[04:50] <marcel__> O.K. what do you suggest?
[04:50] <mcquaid> w3ccv, damn, still unknown host
[04:50] <crimsun> marcel__: I asked for information.
[04:50] <jasin> marcel, alsa is probally not enabled.
[04:50] <w3ccv> mcquaid, you only need to bump the serial number in the file you are working on, not all of them for each edit session. ..... just found my DNS and Bind book
[04:50] <xtknight> andrew_: always the default i think but u can use xmodmap manually and then the alsa volume command
[04:50] <klees> xtknight: i know nothing about those services
[04:50] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, i may be crazy, but i'm not insane.
[04:50] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: i'm really stumped.  If the package is installed fully the file(s) should be there.  Only thing I can think of is to try a 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-$(uname -r)' but let me try it here first
[04:50] <xtknight> klees: me neither, unfortunately ;)
[04:50] <marcel__> sorry, so many it's moving pretty fast here:)
[04:50] <mcquaid> ok
[04:51] <Azhi_Dahaka> read 512 bytes at 0: Input/Output error
[04:51] <klees> xtknight: do u have an ATI card?
[04:51] <xtknight> klees: naw, nvidia
[04:51] <marcel__> it seems I do not have alsamixer installed
[04:51] <mcquaid> i changed them all anyway,
[04:51] <andrew_> xtknight: its not using the default
[04:51] <andrew_> xtknight: its using my onboard, Ill try to disable it in my bios if all else fails
[04:52] <jasin> marcel,  open alsa mixer, goto file / change device
[04:52] <marcel__> when I double click on the volume control, I get this message"No volume control GStreamer plugins or device found"
[04:52] <jasin> marcel,  select 1 or 2, whichever works.
[04:52] <xtknight> hmm
[04:52] <aivijay> Anyone using gnucash
[04:52] <xtknight> andrew_: not sure, i think im having the same trouble.
[04:53] <aivijay> I have some problems with it
[04:53] <xtknight> andrew_: but it may pick up the default device prior to you setting it.  so in turn it has the OLD default device
[04:53] <Pie-rate> How would I forward FTP (not sftp) connections from my ubuntu box?
[04:53] <marcel__> jasin, what do you mean by file?
[04:53] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I think I found it - in the pastebin line 61  zigotel is it's own nameserver - by name, but itdoesn't know where that name is.  change that to the ip 192.168.1.100 (?)
[04:53] <jasin> marcel,  umm you is not listening.
[04:53] <andrew_> xtknight : i just wonder if you can change that somewhere
[04:53] <mcquaid> w3ccv, ok
[04:53] <xtknight> andrew_: no idea.  probably in some init script
[04:53] <trainer_> hi, I can't seem to get an internet connection. my network status looks ok, but ifconfig does not show an "inet addr", only one for ipv6. can anyone help me
[04:53] <marcel__> say it again please
[04:54] <jasin> marcel,  you obviously didn;t open alsa mixer, file is at the top, click on that
[04:54] <Azhi_Dahaka> linux busted my sd card
[04:54] <vijay> I am trying to use gnucash and I find its not properly showing up the fonts
[04:54] <andrew_> anyone: I still cant figure out why I dont get sound out of "pokersars" through WINE
[04:54] <jasin> Azhi, sounds works fine here.
[04:54] <vijay> for the currency
[04:54] <w3ccv> mcquaid, and bump up the serial number - then kill -HUP to reread the files.  maybe even open a window to 'tail -f /var/log/messages'
[04:54] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: ok, the reinstall didn't break anything but I'm rebooting (separate machine) just to make sure.  Stand by
[04:55] <marcel__> I probably do not have it installed, give me a second\

[04:55] <andrew_> how can i tell if OSS is working, and if it's not, how do i make it work?
[04:56] <jasin> marcel, under system / prefrences / sound .. you can enable sound there or change it to oss or alsa or whatever is listed.
[04:56] <james296> what package is it I need to re install to correct the way the Ubuntu Help Centre looks?
[04:57] <marcel__> I do not have it installed where do I find it?
[04:57] <james296> like what if things are missing from it?
[04:57] <james296> how do I fix that?
[04:57] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: rebooted fine.  Give that a try.
[04:58] <daning> /info
[04:58] <andrew_> anyone: when i try to test OSS in sound settings, it does not work, but ALSA does, but I need OSS for WINE, anybody got a clue?
[04:58] <clever> how would i access the tvout feature on my video card?
[04:58] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, thanks, i'll try that. before i leave though... know anything about bluetooth?
[04:58] <Bhaskar> How can i format Usb drive in ubuntu
[04:58] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-$(uname -r)'
[04:58] <jasin> marcel, type: alsamixer, if its installed a console version of it will come up there
[04:58] <Pie-rate> My brother is in the bay area right now, and wants to connect to our dinosaur red hat 7.1 server with FTP (probably using Dreamweaver), except as a security measure, FTP is blocked via /etc/hosts.deny and I don't have root access. I'd like to know what i could do about forwarding all FTP from this ubuntu 6.10 box to the dinosaur redhat 7.1 server
[04:58] <james296> well?
[04:58] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: nope.  I'm sure you're glad to hear it ;P
[04:59] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, thanks, running it now.
[04:59] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, reason i asked, i'm about to switch to a frogpad, and it's bluetooth-only.
[04:59] <Neeled> andrew_, I use ALSA for WINE and don't have any problems.  What seems to be wrong?
[04:59] <daning> /who daning
[04:59] <gop> can you instll xubutnu on ubutnu server
[04:59] <Cuddles_in_KY> wondering if i'd have any trouble configuring for it.
[05:00] <andrew_> Neeled: I am trying to run Pokerstars, and i can't get any sound out of it
[05:00] <jasin> marcel, if its niot installed then you really screwed something up because the alsamixer is installed by default.
[05:00] <bimberi> !bluetooth | Cuddles_in_KY, there is this
[05:00] <ubotu> Cuddles_in_KY, there is this: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:00] <Cuddles_in_KY> thanks bimberi. you've been a lifesaver.
[05:01] <marcel__> it says No such device
[05:01] <h0ndaracer2> hello people
[05:01] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: np, although we haven't got that zip working though.
[05:01] <bimberi> yet :)
[05:01] <marcel__> but I went to sinoptic and it has alsa checked
[05:01] <Neeled> gop, you should be able to, server only installs the text-only stuff, sudo apt-get install xubuntu should install it.
[05:01] <d1gita1> ok.. last time then i won't bother you all again..... i am writing a shell script and i need to change volume in mplayer. i have a FIFO set up and working  (echo "pause" > mplayer_pipe  works fine)  but i cannot seem to set the volume with 'echo "volume 50" > mplayer_pipe'  .  Any ideas?
[05:01] <h0ndaracer2> how do i get unrar i do sudo apt-get install unrar but its not their
[05:01] <jasin> marcel, you can get the alsa mixer here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/sound/alsamixergui
[05:01] <mcquaid> w3ccv, tried those things, but no change
[05:01] <Neeled> Is there a way I can compare file names between two directories/devices and list ones that differ?
[05:02] <james296> well/
[05:02] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, if this reconfig fails, i'll just hook the drive to my win2k laptop [i know it works there]  and scp the files over.
[05:02] <gop> Neeled,  is server or xubuntu any good on a amd 1.2 ghz 256 mb of ram
[05:02] <h0ndaracer2> !unrar
[05:02] <ubotu> unrar is rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression  There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[05:02] <gop> how much hd space can I put on a amd 1.2 ghz
[05:02] <gop> can I get three 250 gig
[05:02] <marcel__> o.k. I am downloading
[05:02] <gop> 3x250
[05:02] <viator> hmmmm im having a few probs with ubuntu kubuntu alternative cd installs
[05:02] <viator> well it installs fine
[05:02] <viator> on a few different boxes
[05:03] <viator> but afterwards iget  all these lines on the screens
[05:03] <Bhaskar> ziro: how can i format usb drive
[05:03] <viator> like the monitors are dying
[05:03] <communico_> hi everyone. i'm having trouble mounting one of my harddrives. The rest all work fine, but one gives an error that says mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1, [ 2313.986787]  EXT3-fs error (device sdc1): ext3_check_descriptors: Block bitmap for group 896 not in group (block 976368160)!
[05:03] <communico_> [ 2313.987255]  EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted !. I'm wondering if there's something I can do to restore the filesystem on it without losing the data
[05:03] <Neeled> gop, if I'm understanding you correctly, you could put as much hard drive space on it as you have hard drives for.
[05:03] <viator> i tried reconfiguring x but it didnt seem to work
[05:03] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, it's working now.
[05:04] <viator> maybe because i chose all the defaults?
[05:04] <Cuddles_in_KY> thank you so very much bimberi.
[05:04] <gop> Neeled,  ubuntu has no limit how about bios
[05:04] <viator> i couldnt read what it said
[05:04] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I new I shouldn't have said "I found it".
[05:04] <gop> I mean I understand some bios
[05:04] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: super cool! :)
[05:04] <viator> i just kind of guessed based on memory
[05:04] <gop> allow only 137 gig per drive
[05:04] <gop> k thanks
[05:04] <h0ndaracer2> q
[05:05] <viator> is there somthing wrong with the alternative install cd's
[05:05] <mcquaid> w3ccv, heh, but thx for all your help, i'm sure you've pointed me in the right direction.  just doing some reading now
[05:05] <Cuddles_in_KY> thanks again.
[05:05] <Neeled> gop, xubuntu should run on that easily.  I've got Ubuntu running fine on a 600mhz with 128mb RAM.  As far as BIOS, it depends on what kind it is.
[05:06] <nikin> viator: whatconfiguration did you choose on the x config? advanced?
[05:06] <trainer_> hi, I can't seem to get an internet connection. my network status looks ok, but ifconfig does not show an "inet addr", only one for ipv6. can anyone help me
[05:06] <jasin> you dont need 137 gigs to run ubuntu
[05:06] <gop> Neeled,  oh k I see
[05:06] <gop> Neeled,  I just saying, some in my condo throw away this computer
[05:06] <viator> i chose simple
[05:06] <marcel__> I have downloaded  and installed alsamixergui
[05:06] <gop> he took out the hd and ram
[05:06] <gop> but I have some ram left
[05:07] <gop> he or she
[05:07] <gop> hmm it has 6 pci slots
[05:07] <gop> and one agp
[05:07] <jasin> you can install everything listed in synaptics and still not use up 40 gigs
[05:07] <gop> jasin,  oh
[05:07] <vnieto> hi
[05:07] <gop> but if I wanted to save my dvr stuff
[05:07] <nikin> viator: and you have chosen the right size for your  monitor?
[05:07] <jasin> I know, I've done it lol
[05:07] <gop> sweet
[05:07] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I'm using DNS & Bind - the Grasshopper book - everything looks good.  I'm sure you have a missing punctuation somewhere but I don't see it., These problems are not easy to debug, but when you do you will have that flat spot on your forehead when you slap it and say "Yes Why didn't I see that !!!???"
[05:07] <Neeled> jasin, that must have been a fun download
[05:07] <gop> jasin,  why the need for everything
[05:07] <marcel__> but when I type alsamixer, it gives me an error message
[05:08] <jasin> marcel,  open alsa mixer, goto file  and then change device
[05:08] <viator> funny thing is i installed ubuntu and kubuntu on multiple pc's some with ati some with nvidia
[05:08] <viator> all different monitors
[05:08] <jasin> marcel, what error?
[05:08] <viator> but 17 inch
[05:08] <gop> is thier any speed difreence from ide to sata pci card
[05:08] <viator> same problem
[05:08] <Harkonnen20> I have a question
[05:09] <gop> seen it has no sata bulit in, would I see a speed increase in disk write and read from a sata pci card
[05:09] <nikin> marcel: and "alsamixergui" is not working?
[05:09] <Harkonnen20> Im trying to run the live cd of 6.1 and when I boot with the disc and hit start, it goes through some loading stuff then gives me an x server error.
[05:09] <gop> and sata disk
[05:09] <mcquaid> w3ccv, lol so true.  usually it's when you back away from the problem for a bit and come back and you find it in instantly.
[05:09] <gop> hmm
[05:09] <Neeled> gop, give it a shot, as long as it's the same kind of RAM as the computer needs it shouldn't be a problem, of course.
[05:09] <gop> yea
[05:09] <gop> I put the sdram and got a live cd to boot
[05:09] <gop> but
[05:09] <marcel__> I clicked Application, sound&video alsamixer but got this message"function snd... error no such device"
[05:09] <blanky> im open to questions!
[05:09] <gop> it has no Hd I guessw who ever was the person who throw it out
[05:09] <Neeled> blanky, Is there a way I can compare file names between two directories/devices and list ones that differ?
[05:10] <gop> gutted it hd and ram
[05:10] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I find that sodoku is the same way.  I've gotta run, but good luck
[05:10] <w3ccv> mcquaid, and look at my /part message
[05:10] <viator> you need 192 mb for the live cd to work properly
[05:10] <blanky> Neeled: well
[05:10] <gop> I just wonder if I get a sata card, and put sata based hd will it go faster or run faster in write and read compared to ide built in to mobo
[05:10] <nikin> marcel__ try the 'alsamixergui' command
[05:10] <blanky> Neeled: hold up a second
[05:10] <gop> !sata
[05:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sata - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:10] <Neeled> blanky, sure, I'm patient.
[05:11] <blanky> Neeled: you can use diff, a gui for it such as Kompare, and see which files are in which directories
[05:11] <blanky> I believe that's a smple way
[05:11] <marcel__> alsamixergui "can't open display"
[05:11] <blanky> you just choose both directories
[05:11] <genben> blanky: i have this rash ... 8-)
[05:11] <jasin> marcel, are you root?
[05:11] <marcel__> yes
[05:11] <blanky> genben: ice cream
[05:11] <genben> haha, cheers
[05:11] <Neeled> gop, I've got one of those IDE RAID cards and I don't notice any speed difference than when directly connected to the mobo
[05:11] <viator> oh and i have edgy
[05:11] <blanky> Neeled: you could also probably ls recursively (dont know the command at the top of my head) and pipe it to a file and then diff them both
[05:11] <nikin> marcel: do you have the X installed?
[05:11] <viator> not dapper
[05:11] <Falstius> gop: sustained writes will be faster, but for most things you won't notice the difference.  If you want to use it as a backup server or video editing, then you will.
[05:11] <viator> cd's
[05:12] <marcel__> X  you mean gnome?
[05:12] <blanky> Neeled: ls --recursive > directoryone.txt
[05:12] <andrew_> everyone: I figured it out!! the sound is going out of my onboard, in WINE, even though it should be using my soundlbaster :-(
[05:12] <blanky> and the same for the other directory, though I don't know if ls --recursive is the command
[05:12] <nikin> marcel: yep, ork KDE or whatever
[05:12] <marcel__> yes, I use Gnome
[05:13] <marcel__> the thing is my sound control is muted and when I try to turn it up it goes down automatically
[05:13] <nikin> marcel... and when you type ALT+F2 in gnome, and write there "alsamixergui" and hit enter... he writes it cant open the display?
[05:13] <Neeled> blanky, thanks I'll try that.
[05:13] <genben> andrew_: have you tried to turn off your onboard sound thru the BIOS? i had t do that to my VIA/AC97 to get my soundblaster to work
[05:13] <jasin> marcel, sounds like the sound card is not installed or ubuntu is not detecting it. Try installing all of the following: alsa-base, alsa-oss, alsa-utils, libasound2, linux-sound-base
[05:13] <blanky> Neeled: my pleasure, hope it works
[05:14] <jasin> marcel, you can get them off of synaptics, use the search word: alsa
[05:14] <andrew_> genben: I will
[05:14] <genben> default is onboard, always causes problems
[05:15] <marcel__> it says: alsamixer function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:15] <marcel__> I go to synoptic
[05:16] <snadge> for some reason gdm wont start anymore and i get the error "could not open default font 'fixed'" am I missing font packages? where should i look
[05:16] <marcel__> alsa-base, alsamixergui, alsa-util  = installed
[05:16] <blanky> snadge: what was the last significant thing you remember doing
[05:17] <blanky> snadge: before this happened
[05:17] <bimberi> snadge: you could try this, although it does relate to VNC...
[05:17] <bimberi> !vncfix | snadge
[05:17] <ubotu> snadge: 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'
[05:17] <Spectus> Hey everyone ... I just installed Ubuntu 6.06 from the live CD and upgraded to 6.10 and my problem is that when I save files to the Desktop (/home/justin/Desktop) they aren't appearing in that folder and they don't show up on the desktop ... but if I open it in Thunar all of the files show up.
[05:18] <Spectus> So is there a Nautilus setting I need to change?
[05:18] <snadge> blanky: I cant remember.. i was running debian before i put the ubuntu drive back in.. and its been a while =)
[05:18] <bruenig> Spectus, the xfce desktop is funny
[05:18] <Spectus> I'm running the gnome desktop enviroment
[05:18] <bruenig> why thunar?
[05:18] <Spectus> Just an extra file manager I have I guess
[05:18] <Spectus> My point was, the files are there, but they aren't showing up in Nautilus
[05:18] <nikin> Bruening: you have to eneble Xfce to manage your desktop
[05:19] <bruenig> yes I do and the it goes away
[05:19] <nikin> ohh.. sorry.. spectus
[05:19] <bruenig> i don't ever keep anything on it so I don't worry abou tit
[05:19] <marcel__> any more ideas before I hit the bed?
[05:19] <gop> Falstius,  just use for saving my dvr stuff
[05:19] <gop> Falstius,  one last question in looking at hard drives
[05:19] <Spectus> nikin: I don't want to run xfce, I want nautilus to work right and display my files
[05:19] <gop> wtf is pata
[05:19] <gop> is that a new standard
[05:19] <gop> wtf annother standard
[05:20] <kitche> gop: it's IDE
[05:20] <gop> Parallel A
[05:20] <gop> oh
[05:20] <Harkonnen20> ya pata is regular drives
[05:20] <gop> ide opps
[05:20] <Spectus> I only brought Thunar into the picture to prove that the files are there and they just aren't showing up in Nautilus :s
[05:20] <gop> I know by ide opps
[05:20] <gop> I forgot
[05:20] <gop> I suck at computer jargon
[05:20] <nikin> Spectus: are you running gnome?
[05:20] <kitche> gop: they renamed them for some reason :)
[05:20] <Spectus> nikin: yes
[05:20] <blanky> hey guys, in the alternate install disk
[05:20] <blanky> i choose install base system right?
[05:20] <gop> oh they did
[05:20] <marcel__> o.k. than you for trying. good-night
[05:21] <gop> I always new for ide
[05:21] <isenmike> can anybody help me get my opengl hardware acceleration working?
[05:21] <gop> my pc bible
[05:21] <gop> said ide
[05:21] <nikin> Spectus: and if you look at the desktop folder in Nautilus.. it does show the contents of it? or just Thunar does?
[05:21] <tonyyarusso> How can you have uploaded files automatically chmoded with vsftpd?
[05:21] <isenmike> I have an ATI Radeon X800, I have installed the fglrx drivers, and everything works great until I try and run a game or a screensaver or anything with 3D, at which point things slow to a crawl
[05:22] <blanky> guys
[05:22] <blanky> in the alternate install disk
[05:22] <blanky> do i choose install base system?
[05:22] <Spectus> nikin: Nautilus shows Desktop as empty but Thunar shows all of the files
[05:22] <viator> yes
[05:22] <Harkonnen20> Hey guys I need some help. Im trying to run the live cd of 6.1 and when I boot with the disc and hit start. It goes through some loading stuff then gives me an x server error.
[05:23] <blanky> viator: im trying to install the desktop
[05:23] <viator> install base system
[05:23] <aNi`> can some one plz explian  export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
[05:24] <andrew_> I just disabled my onboard sound, all the sound works in ubuntu except for logon/logoff and the other system sounds :-(
[05:24] <isenmike> when I run fglrxinfo, I get " Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". "
[05:24] <bimberi> aNi`: it's adding "(chroot) " to the front of your existing bash prompt
[05:24] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: One thing to note is that the live cd is limited in the graphics card / monitor combinations it can handle, so it's possible it won't work on your system.  Even if that is the case, you may be able to install off the !alternate cd and be just fine.  Something to consider.
[05:24] <nikin> Spectus: and if you create a dokument clicking with rigth button on the desktop and choosing create document?
[05:24] <aNi`> bimberi so its telling me that we are in a chroot enviroment?
[05:24] <Harkonnen20> i just wanna try it out, not install it though
[05:24] <Spectus> isenmike: I don't know if it would have anything to do with your problem, but no games worked right on my ATI card until I disabled Composite
[05:25] <Spectus> nikin: I tried creating a launcher on the desktop and it just disappeared
[05:25] <Harkonnen20> my monitor is widescreen maybe that is screwing it up?
[05:25] <MegaTrousers> I have an ATI mobility x1600 in my laptop. Resolution at 1440x900. How can I set my external 4:3 LCD to appear as, not a clone, but a horizontal extension on my LCD?
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: Do you have a funny monitor resolution or something?
[05:25] <Spectus> nikin: but thunar shows it
[05:25] <Harkonnen20> 1680x1050
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: That could be.  (Maybe ask a friend to borrow theirs ;)  )
[05:25] <isenmike> spectus: I tried that... didn't help
[05:25] <exs> guys, I've lost a bar thingy. So for example, when I click to close gaim ( the window ), instead of closing and then going into the tray, the tray is not there so I am unable to click it to see it again. This is the sae for all of my programs (no tray)
[05:26] <Spectus> isenmike: hmm, sorry then :S
[05:26] <trainer_> can anyone help me with this network issue?
[05:26] <Harkonnen20> bah i don't wanna bring that big honking thing up from downstairs lol
[05:26] <elyon225> What is the difference between 'Desktop User' and 'Unpriviledged User'?
[05:26] <tonyyarusso> exs: As in, you killed your gnome-panel?
[05:26] <isenmike> anybody else know anything about ATI drivers and OpenGL?
[05:26] <MegaTrousers> I have an ATI mobility x1600 in my laptop. Resolution at 1440x900. How can I set my external 4:3 LCD to appear as, not a clone, but a horizontal extension on my LCD?
[05:27] <bimberi_> aNi`: not in itself, but i imagine that's part of a larger script that does so? (sorry, got disconnected)
[05:27] <exs> tonyyarusso: Not quite. My gnome panel is still fine. it has applications / places, aswell as the shortcut icons, and my dictionary applet, and the network monitor, but it has none of the programs which should be there when they are running (for example the gaim icon)
[05:27] <Harkonnen20> im not getting a very good first impression from ubuntu if i can't even start it up :P
[05:27] <tonyyarusso> exs: and gaim does have it's system tray thing enabled?
[05:28] <aNi`> bimberi_ yeah it is some gentooo install guide just having trouble on dis one thing THX.. ur a big help
[05:28] <exs> tonyyarusso It does have it's systam tray thing enabled.
[05:28] <KHatfull> Hi, here's a question (and yes, I've searched the forums for an hour...):  Trying to install a command line system from the Feisty alternate CD, CD boots, installation starts, goes through keyboard selection, and then can't mount the CD to do the install.  I've burned a CD at the lowest speed I can, no go.  Any other ideas?  Oh, Thinkpad 600X is the machine.
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: Yeah, that's understandable.  It's one of the unfortunate results of trying to pack everything into one CD - it can't do everything.
[05:28] <bimberi> aNi`: np :)
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> KHatfull: #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[05:28] <nikin> Spectus: if you open nautilus and go toyour home dir is there a litle desktop like image on the right upper side of you desktop icom?
[05:28] <elyon225> What is the difference between 'Desktop User' and 'Unpriviledged User'?
[05:28] <KHatfull> my apologies..
[05:28] <jackson3246> how do I change the resolution of my xorg terminal (the one I use when not running a gui)?
[05:29] <tonyyarusso> exs: Maybe it's one of thing things you can add to panel?  Notification area perhaps?  I'm not really sure.
[05:29] <Harkonnen20> im guessing setting my resolution to 1024x768 in windows won't do squat :P
[05:29] <Spectus> nikin: I don't understand what you mean
[05:29] <exs> tonyyarusso:  same here, I don't know either. Maybe there's a gnome irc channel?
[05:29] <mena> hey friends i have aproblem i cant find my partitons after i had reformate them to ext3
[05:29] <tonyyarusso> exs: There is - on gimpnet I believe.
[05:29] <exs> tonyyarusso thanks
[05:30] <nikin> Spectus: select places menu > home folder
[05:30] <viator> yeah its notification
[05:30] <viator> area
[05:31] <Harkonnen20> so there is no other way to get this to work other than bringing up my other monitor...
[05:31] <andrew_> is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:31] <nikin> Spectus: that should open your home dir
[05:31] <dude> do you know if i can install sakai with free java  instead of jre
[05:31] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: You could try checking out the resolution option on the live cd - it may be in there, may not.
[05:31] <Spectus> nikin: Yeah, I'm in my home dir but I don't see a desktop like image in the top
[05:31] <jackson3246> how do I change the resolution of my xorg terminal (the one I use when not running a gui)?
[05:31] <Harkonnen20> no idea where that is
[05:32] <exs> tonyyarusso I'm using gnomes xchat and I don't know how to tell it to connect to gimpnet ...
[05:32] <Harkonnen20> only linux i've ever used is knoppix live cd :P

[05:32] <dude> anyone
[05:33] <simon^templar> how do i update/upgrade mozilla firefox?
[05:33] <Neeled> dude, sakai with free java instead of jre?
[05:33] <Harkonnen20> tonyyarusso your gonna have to explain it to me like im a total retard :P
[05:33] <dude> Neeled, yes
[05:34] <viator> exs you get your panel back to normal?
[05:34] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: hehe - 'k.  Right when it starts, look around on that screen.  Somewhere on there I believe is something about resolution options (along with things like accessibility, etc).  Basically, just select it (arrow keys and enter), and poke around and see if any of that is useful.  Could also try safe graphics mode.
[05:34] <bimberi> exs: IRC -> Connect -> GimpNet -> Connect
[05:35] <tonyyarusso> exs: File > Servers | Gimpnet I think (don't use xchat, but did once)
[05:35] <toastytaco> Who do I talk to about some help with a linux media website??
[05:35] <Harkonnen20> starting it in safe graphics mode also takes it to the live cd right?
[05:35] <exs> viator:  no, not yet. I#m visiting gimpnet to ask in there
[05:35] <viator> all ya have to do is rightclick and choose add to panel and
[05:35] <viator> choose
[05:35] <exs> bimberi: thanks
[05:35] <viator> notification area
[05:36] <dude> do you know if i can install sakai with free java  instead of jre
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> mena: Define "find"
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: yes
[05:36] <tonyyarusso> (if it succeeds)
[05:36] <mena> okay i have a problem with my partitions bec after i had reformate them to ext3 i cant see them or brows what to doo
[05:36] <Harkonnen20> yeah big if eh
[05:37] <Harkonnen20> also i noticed something else weird

[05:37] <austinguy> Hi. My sister (in Virginia) and I (in Texas) want to send files back and forth to each other.  We both have broadband.  What's the best way to do this if she has Windows and I have Ubuntu?
[05:37] <Harkonnen20> when i boot into ubuntu my cpu fan shuts off...
[05:38] <mena> and something happened to the file system
[05:38] <dude> mena, when you format it erases all data so all what u had is gone
[05:38] <nekohayo> hey people, I think there are some dbus updates in edgy-security that breaks gnome's setting daemon
[05:38] <nekohayo> could someone confirm this?
[05:38] <Spectus> nikin: apparently I had to hit Ctrl+R on the desktop to get my files to appear
[05:38] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: does it stay that way after things get hot?
[05:38] <Spectus> nikin: Shouldn't nautilus be.. doing this automatically?
[05:38] <jasin> People like to blame linux when things go wrong, but most always -- its something we did.
[05:39] <craigbass1976> austinguy, whoever has windows use pscp (an ssh copy utility for windows)
[05:39] <Harkonnen20> i dunno i can't get ubuntu to run
[05:39] <mena> okay i know that but now i cant see them and i had mount them throw terminal and after arebort they cant be mount
[05:39] <Harkonnen20> thank god my cpu isn't one to get too hot
[05:39] <tonyyarusso> mena: add them to !fstab with the new fs
[05:40] <dude> mena, how did you format them
[05:40] <mena> throw gparted
[05:40] <xtknight> Harkonnen20: have the bios run the fan at full at all times, it will probably solve the problem.  mine got to 98C yesterday but i think that was the motherboard's fault (i told the mobo to control the fan itself, but now i tell it to run the fan at 100% all the time)
[05:40] <mena> and i dont know the waay to ad them
[05:40] <Harkonnen20> mine doesn't have that much control really
[05:40] <Harkonnen20> oem garbage
[05:40] <xtknight> oh
[05:40] <dude> mena, what version of ubuntu are you using
[05:40] <mena> i just installed the ubuntu and i dont know much
[05:41] <mena> 6.10
[05:41] <austinguy> Craigbass: I don't have a static IP, and she's not that technically adept (nor am I for that matter.)
[05:41] <Spectus> nikin: Well I guess its working now... Thanks for your help
[05:41] <Harkonnen20> last time i messed with the bios settings the fan didn't come on when i went into windows :P
[05:41] <Harkonnen20> i was trying to set warning and minimum temps
[05:42] <dude> mena, ok   try this ok    system -> administration -> disks
[05:42] <viator> go into the bios and choose the set defaults
[05:42] <dude> mena, do you understand
[05:42] <viator> maybe thatll fix it
[05:42] <mena> yes but i didnt find disks
[05:43] <Harkonnen20> brb gonna mess with my BIOS
[05:44] <dude> mena,  gedit /etc/fstab   then paste it in paste bin  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:44] <exs> just incase any of you were wondring, I fixed my panel via adding the 'notificaton area applet' to via programs that give an icon in the taskbar.
[05:44] <austinguy> Is there any way we can set up a VPN?
[05:45] <mena> ok
[05:45] <viator> exs great
[05:45] <viator> glad you got it straightened out
[05:46] <professor> hey all
[05:46] <austinguy> Or perhaps using GProFTPD to set up an FTP server?
[05:46] <craigbass1976> austinguy, have you gotten the private messages I sent?
[05:46] <mena> After That dude
[05:46] <austinguy> Ah, yes, didn't see em.
[05:46] <professor> how do you compile in ubuntu, and do all programs you download have to be compiled
[05:47] <dude> mena, what is the link to the paste bin
[05:47] <mena> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/518/
[05:47] <mena> Thisi
[05:47] <viator> ypu need the build essential package
[05:47] <viator> to compile stuff
[05:48] <lethargic> Hello.  I have two queries.  I removed an application via add/remove (gnome-xchat) and it IS gone, but it still is in the applications menu.  How do I remove it from there?
[05:48] <viator> you shouldnt need to compile much everything you could want is in the repos
[05:48] <craigbass1976> lethargic, I don't know as you can.  I think that is just a list of all possible apps you can install
[05:48] <superkirbyartist> !hello
[05:48] <ubotu> hello: The classic greeting, and a good example. In component main, is optional. Version 2.1.1-4 (edgy), package size 47 kB, installed size 472 kB
[05:48] <gop> why won't ident work in
[05:48] <simon^templar> excuse me, how do i add a normal user to bocome root or su?
[05:48] <gop> irc
[05:48] <gop> oident won't work
[05:48] <gop> with any irc client
[05:49] <gop> do I have to configue it by hand
[05:49] <lethargic> craigbass, i mean it is still in my applications/internet menu.  not in add/remove
[05:49] <dude> mena, you mis understood me  copy what text shows up in the gedit window
[05:49] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:49] <craigbass1976> Oh, I don't know.  I'm in Fedora right now.
[05:49] <bimberi> lethargic: use the menu editor (right-click on Applications -> Edit Menus).  BTW, that is a bug, feel free to report it.
[05:49] <mena> okay soory
[05:49] <zmuth734> hi everyone i'm having kind of a crisis with my ubuntu after installing a theme, can someone PM me please?
[05:49] <dude> mena, then paste it
[05:49] <professor> how do you get to become a super user permentally in graphic interface mode
[05:49] <craigbass1976> Please, nobody throw tomatoes...
[05:50] <craigbass1976> professor, that's a bad idea
[05:50] <professor> really why
[05:50] <bimberi> professor: what do you need to do?
[05:50] <tonyyarusso> !pm | zmuth734
[05:50] <ubotu> zmuth734: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first.
[05:50] <craigbass1976> professor, to easy to muck things up.  That's how so many people break their Windows boxes.
[05:50] <imbecile> ok guys, i am missing out on something here, I have ipw3945 and i know it should run out of the box but i dont see any wifi connections in network manager.. is there perhaps some dependancies I'm missing?
[05:50] <lethargic> bimberi,  thank you.
[05:50] <Peebo> Ok here's one when I do this     nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so     I get this      .: 4: Out of file descriptors      <- twice
[05:50] <professor> I was trying to copy files to a folder and it says I dont have permission to be in there
[05:50] <lethargic> What if you wanted to be a super user in one folder... like /home/Desktop/audio
[05:51] <viator> professor change the permissions
[05:51] <lethargic> And have graphical-access to it at all times to drag files
[05:51] <viator> of the folder
[05:51] <professor> viator how do I do that
[05:51] <bimberi> professor: run the file manager as root.  'gksudo nautilus'
[05:51] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:51] <craigbass1976> professor, you could open a terminal and sudo cp /files/you/want/copied /where/you/want/them
[05:51] <tonyyarusso> bimberi: Um...I've heard that's a bad idea, b/c it mucks up permissions.
[05:51] <viator> use the chmod command
[05:51] <dude> do you know if i can install sakai with free java  instead of jre
[05:51] <professor> what does gksudo do
[05:52] <zmuth734> Okay here's my question:  I accidentally dragged a mouse cursor theme into the gnome theme manager and applied it, and now everything is messed up.  How can I change the theme back?  I can't even get into ubuntu now
[05:52] <mena> dude , gtk_text_util_create_rich_drag_icon: layout size 360 19
[05:52] <mena> _gtk_text_util_create_rich_drag_icon: pixmap size 260 29
[05:52] <lethargic> bimberi, i actually also have the same problem as professor.  i tried gksudo nautilus, but folders i've created on the home/Desktop beforehand do not show up there.
[05:52] <bimberi> tonyyarusso: what, running nautilus? or using gksudo to run it?
[05:52] <craigbass1976> professor, or chown professor:professor /directory/where/you/can't/copy/stuff
[05:52] <viator> gksudo natulis runs natulis as superuser
[05:52] <viator> if i recall
[05:52] <tonyyarusso> bimberi: running nautilus as root
[05:52] <dude> mena, brb
[05:52] <professor> ok
[05:52] <mena> okay
[05:52] <craigbass1976> professor, where is the directory, by the way.  Is it a directory you shouldn't be copying into in the first place?
[05:52] <professor> where is a good place to learn terminal
[05:52] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:53] <professor> well last night I had to reinstall ubuntu
[05:53] <bimberi> tonyyarusso: hmmk.  I'll stop recommending that then.  Thanks
[05:53] <nolimitsoya> this keeps returning 'Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive', what wrong: 'find -iname "\.*" | tar cpjf bkp.tar.bz2'?
[05:53] <professor> and I dont have a wireless card that is detectable
[05:53] <nolimitsoya> *
[05:53] <professor> so I needed ndiswrapper
[05:53] <imbecile> ok guys, i am missing out on something here, I have ipw3945 and i know it should run out of the box but i dont see any wifi connections in network manager.. is there perhaps some dependancies I'm missing?
[05:53] <zmuth734> how do you change themes from the terminal??
[05:54] <professor> So I had it on cd but I couild not install them, it came up as files not packages
[05:54] <professor> so I tried to cpy the files into the folder
[05:54] <professor> didnt work
[05:54] <viator> ndiswrapper?
[05:54] <Peebo> when I do this     nspluginwrapper -i /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so     I get this      .: 4: Out of file descriptors      <- twice  help please!
[05:54] <andrew_> imbecile: is your wifi turned on? is it a laptop?
[05:54] <viator> just install it via apt
[05:54] <craigbass1976> professor, ahh.  Then do the sudo cp /files/you/want/copied /where/you/want/them
[05:54] <viator> snaptic or whatever
[05:54] <n2diy> ! enter professor
[05:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about enter professor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:54] <dude> mena, where do you live
[05:54] <professor> no no no I got it all now, I had to connect ot the internet
[05:54] <Harkonnen20> tonyyarusso it doesn't work in safe graphics mode either
[05:55] <tonyyarusso> Harkonnen20: :(
[05:55] <Harkonnen20> i even set the vga to 1024x768x32
[05:55] <Harkonnen20> no dice
[05:55] <bimberi> tonyyarusso: any further info.  such as _what_ permissions? or a link?
[05:55] <gop> !chess
[05:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chess - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:55] <viator> its on the cd
[05:55] <andrew_> ubotu: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:55] <Harkonnen20> says there are no screens
[05:55] <viator> if i recall
[05:55] <zmuth734> arghhh someone please help me i just broke ubuntu
[05:55] <professor> By the way this is a great IRC channel
[05:55] <tonyyarusso> bimberi: No - strictly hearsay on my end.  You'd have to ask around for something more in-depth.
[05:56] <andrew_> ubotu: I cannot run alsamixer anymore i get " function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
[05:56] <professor> where is a good place to learn terminal
[05:56] <mena> in egypt why
[05:56] <craigbass1976> professor, a bit crowded though sometimes... and it must be confusing to have me and a couple others throwing answers at you :)
[05:56] <nolimitsoya> this keeps returning 'Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive', whats wrong: find -iname "\.*" | tar cpjf bkp.tar.bz2
[05:56] <professor> lol yea it is
[05:56] <mena> dude, in egypt
[05:56] <professor> everyone has there own way to do stuff
[05:56] <professor> like master mechaincs for microchips
[05:56] <n2diy> professor: man bash
[05:57] <Harkonnen20> should i try setting it to 800x600?
[05:57] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[05:57] <professor> man bash?  sorry I am a noob
[05:57] <craigbass1976> professor, see if this toots your horn http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-bash.html
[05:57] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: your piping into tar so it's trying to create an archine
[05:57] <craigbass1976> professor, man bash is kind of confusing
[05:57] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, yes, so far so good :)
[05:57] <FlyingSquirrel33> why is it that when I connect to vnc on my remote machine using the Terminal Server Client, it works fine, but when I do "vncviewer desktop:0" at the command line I get rejected?
[05:57] <dude> mena, there is one thing we can try ok  it is called remote desktop  so i can show you your problem by moveing your mouse and typing keys for you   does this sound like something you want to try
[05:57] <imbecile> andrew_,  I believe my wifi is up, I have it turned on in network manager but that is all the configuration i did
[05:57] <n2diy> professor: at the terminal prompt type ..man bash
[05:58] <mena> i know about it okay
[05:58] <professor> I want to learn the basics of moving around the terminal
[05:58] <professor> im not really good at it
[05:58] <mena> okay that would be slow
[05:58] <mena> or okay
[05:58] <professor> and I heard that if you want to be good you need to learn the terminal
[05:58] <zmuth734> I installed a mouse cursor theme in gnome theme manager by accident and now my ubuntu is broken!!! ur not supposed to install mouse cursor themes there but it did it anyway!!
[05:58] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, i guess my question is, why isnt the archive created with the output of the find command...
[05:58] <craigbass1976> n2diy, mayhaps he's looking ofr more of a tutorial.  Know of any good walkthroughs for bash?
[05:59] <n2diy> craigbass1976: roger that, wait.
[05:59] <dude> mena, i need to set it to accept a connection   k and let it allow me to control
[05:59] <kyncani> professor: The Linux command reference may be found here: http://justlinux.com/nhf/Command_Reference and here: http://justlinux.com/nhf/Shells/Basic_Console_Commands.html
[05:59] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: when I do     find -iname "\.*"      it returns      .         on a single line
[05:59] <craigbass1976> professor, the terminal ends up being faster I think.  Whenever I sit at a windows box now, I get very "thumb-twiddly."
[05:59] <mena> okay will see
[05:59] <professor> lol
[05:59] <professor> I like terminal
[05:59] <professor> but I suck at it
[06:00] <professor> really bad
[06:00] <professor> so many commands dont know where to start
[06:00] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, when i do it it returns all hiddens files and dirs in the current path :)
[06:00] <craigbass1976> Everybody does at first.
[06:00] <zhuqi> i got a problem on printing graphic with ubuntu 6.10 .. anybody know the solution please?
[06:00] <n2diy> ! enter |professor
[06:00] <ubotu> professor: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:00] <dude> mena, tell me when i can try
[06:00] <craigbass1976> Then after you get pretty good, you meet someone better and realize that you still suck
[06:00] <mena> okay now no prob
[06:00] <slicky> is there a PAL-B tv tuner support for linux? :S  cant get any signal on my tvcard..
[06:00] <d1gita1> is there a way to use mplayer and festival at the same time?
[06:00] <Peebo> prof, it's not called Terminal:   the terminal simply open the default shell   in my case BASH.  SO I would need to learn bash if I were in your case
[06:00] <professor> lol at craig
[06:00] <kyncani> professor: start getting good books
[06:01] <professor> like ???
[06:01] <professor> Craig where you from
[06:01] <craigbass1976> professor, see what OReilly has
[06:01] <craigbass1976> maine
[06:01] <n2diy> professor, here is everything, almost, you'll ever need to know about linux:  http://rute.2038bug.com/rute.html.gz
[06:01] <professor> yea I had downloaded tons of them
[06:01] <dude> mena, did you set it to allow me to connect
[06:01] <kyncani> professor: like unix basics, shell programming for starter i think
[06:01] <d1gita1> when i try i get this:  Linux: can't open /dev/dsp
[06:01] <professor> they I thought I was upgrading to Edgy
[06:01] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: Ok let me try again
[06:01] <professor> and I ended up locking up my computer
[06:01] <slicky> is there a PAL-B tv tuner support for linux? :S  cant get any signal on my tvcard..
[06:01] <kyncani> professor: like unix basics *and then* shell programming for starter i think
[06:01] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, what does 'find -iname  "\.*"' give you when run from ~?
[06:02] <mena> okay yo didnt tell me so how to set it
[06:02] <mena> throw assitive
[06:02] <mena> or what
[06:02] <andrew_> anyone: When I installed ubuntu, I had my onboard enabled but was using a PCI soundcard, I disabled the onboard to clear some OSS problems, but now my ALSA wont work, is there any way to re-load ALSA?
[06:02] <crimsun> andrew_: what do you mean by it "won't work"?
[06:02] <dude> mena, system -> preferences -> remote desktop
[06:02] <craigbass1976> andrew_, can you do something like /etc/init.d/alsa start?
[06:02] <mena> oh sorry
[06:02] <mena> okay
[06:02] <crimsun> craigbass1976: that only restores mixer volumes.
[06:03] <craigbass1976> Ahh.  My bad.
[06:03] <mena> i had allow it
[06:03] <mena> u can try
[06:03] <mena> what will happened when you are in
[06:03] <professor> I installed edgy and when I was using it, my programs would just close?  Does anyone else have that problem, it was so bad I uninstalled it and went back to 6.06
[06:03] <Pirate-king> is there any boot floppys for xbuntu?
[06:03] <n2diy> ! enter | mena
[06:03] <ubotu> mena: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:03] <andrew_> doing alsamixer  in console gives me "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
[06:03] <mena> okay
[06:03] <dude> mena, i will show you what to do and how to fix it
[06:04] <craigbass1976> professor, I've heard of (but never had any) trouble with edgy.  I am using dapper.
[06:04] <mena> ok
[06:04] <crimsun> andrew_: paste onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org the output from ``lspci -v''
[06:04] <crimsun> andrew_: then tell me the url
[06:04] <professor> me too
[06:04] <professor> I went back
[06:04] <Jbirk> I am trying to catch up
[06:04] <Jbirk> sudo rm -rf / ?
[06:04] <craigbass1976> professor, 3 year life cycle is what made me go back
[06:04] <Jbirk> What will that do?
[06:04] <professor> it was too crazy.  I think I am going to stick with this till the next one come out in 3 years
[06:05] <professor> yea me too
[06:05] <xtknight> Jbirk: it removes your entire system
[06:05] <n2diy> Jbirk: no, don't do that.
[06:05] <nolimitsoya> Jbirk, itll remove all files on all mouted drives :)
[06:05] <nolimitsoya> *mounted
[06:05] <andrew_> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/519/

[06:05] <tecomega42> sry
[06:05] <Jbirk> wow
[06:05] <dude> mena it wont let me connect and it caused a failure i have to restart try to see if somenoe else can help you
[06:05] <nolimitsoya> Jbirk, and thats including you system...
[06:05] <Jbirk> crazy friend
[06:05] <dude> mena, it wont let me connect and it caused a failure i have to restart try to see if somenoe else can help you
[06:06] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: Ok it does the same for me, At best this would only put the names of the files in the archive not the files themselves
[06:06] <Jbirk> He is writing me back
[06:06] <Jbirk> says
[06:06] <Jbirk> "make sure you do it as root though"
[06:06] <professor> hey quick quesiton does anyone know how to use aircrack.  I have been having so much trouble with it. I still dont know how to use it
[06:06] <mena> ok
[06:06] <n2diy> Jbirk: crazy yes, friend?
[06:06] <Jbirk> Yeah
[06:06] <craigbass1976> professor, I am coming from Fedora land, where an OS only lives about a year.  That is why I'm switching (still in the process) over to Ubuntu.  Debian and Cent are too old.  Ubuntu is about as new as Fedora, but there's way more software
[06:06] <Jbirk> he helps me all the time
[06:06] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, well that sucks. :/ how do i create an archive of all hidden files within /home?
[06:06] <Jbirk> He even cleaned my XP machine
[06:07] <Jbirk> It had a Virus
[06:07] <Jbirk> He said he would take care of it
[06:07] <professor> craig I like it
[06:07] <n2diy> Jbirk: ok.
[06:07] <professor> How do I get your name in red
[06:07] <Jbirk> I got it back saying Boot Sector Not Found
[06:07] <Jbirk> or something like that
[06:07] <Jbirk> I asked him to fix it
[06:07] <Jbirk> He installed Ubuntu
[06:07] <blanky> hey guys
[06:07] <blanky> is there such meta package as ubuntu-desktop?
[06:07] <blanky> just as there is kubuntu-desktop
[06:07] <n2diy> professor: include it in your response.
[06:07] <windswept> How can I get a machine to boot if the default kernel that comes with Ubuntu 6.06-lts does not  work with the machine?
[06:07] <nolimitsoya> blanky, yes
[06:07] <professor> the whole name
[06:08] <andrew_> crimsun: sorry man, got disconnected, u see that?
[06:08] <nolimitsoya> blanky, to search for packages you can use synaptic, or the line 'apt-cache search foo'
[06:08] <windswept> professor yes you put thatperson name as the first word in the line.
[06:08] <crimsun> andrew_: yes, sec
[06:08] <professor> oh ok
[06:08] <n2diy> professor: whole name ?
[06:08] <blanky> nolimitsoya: I know, I'm not in linux right now though
[06:08] <wweasel> professor: Depending on what client, you can probably hit tab after typing a few letters to get it to complete the name
[06:08] <professor> Craigbass1976 have you ever messed with Aircrack
[06:08] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: Letme try a few things
[06:08] <crimsun> andrew_: ok, I see an sblive; is that the device you want to use by default?
[06:09] <craigbass1976> professor, if you type the first few letters, you can hit tab and it will finish the name for you
[06:09] <craigbass1976> professor, no.  What is it?
[06:09] <windswept> blanky another thing that you might want to use is  apt-cache pkgnames  into a file and then search that file with grep.
[06:09] <trainer_> can anyone help me get my ethernet connection working. I have been digging through the forums for hours with this problem and I am ready to completely give up.
[06:09] <nolimitsoya> blanky, in that case you can ask the allknowing bot :) !find ubuntu-desktop
[06:09] <professor> no that did work
[06:09] <professor> lol
[06:09] <blanky> windswept: thanks, or I can simply do sudo apt-cache search pkgname | grep something
[06:09] <threeonefour> what is the difference between free java and jre
[06:09] <Knelix> I'm trying to install Linux on my iBook, but I also want to have a separate partition for Mac OS X, which is the only OS it has installed art the moment. I am running the live PowerPC Edgy CD now. How do I go about creating separate partitions but keep the ability to boot into either? Do I need to destroy my current Mac OS partition? Should I partition the drive under Mac OS instead? Gimme some hints here, guys. ;-)
[06:09] <craigbass1976> trainer_, what's up?
[06:09] <andrew_> crimsun: yes, and i am, sound works, minus the ability to play system sounds, i cant test it  or anything, it gives me errors for ALSA
[06:09] <blanky> thanks nolimitsoya
[06:09] <wweasel> windswept, blanky: More efficient to pipe it. Ex:    apt-cache search perl | grep dev
[06:09] <windswept> trainer  type ifconfig
[06:09] <mena> dude, so are you trying or seeing athores for help
[06:09] <riotkittie> why not just pipe to grep while you search?
[06:09] <craigbass1976> professor, what are you using?  Xchat?
[06:10] <trainer_> craigbass1976, windswept, I can not get a IP via dhcp apparently
[06:10] <crimsun> andrew_: paste the contents of /etc/asound.conf and ~/.asoundrc*
[06:10] <blanky> wweasel: tha'ts what i said
[06:10] <professor> yea
[06:10] <crimsun> andrew_: ont pastebin
[06:10] <crimsun> onto, even
[06:10] <andrew_> k
[06:10] <professor> cr
[06:10] <windswept> trainer_  ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.55  sets your ip address
[06:10] <wweasel> windswept: Yeah, i only noticed you had corrected him after i hit enter. sorry :P
[06:10] <professor> Craig
[06:10] <professor> craigbass1976,
[06:10] <professor> yea it worked
[06:10] <threeonefour> does anyone know anything about sakai
[06:10] <wweasel> gah, that was to blanky. god this large room is confusing
[06:11] <trainer_> I have a dell inspiron 1501, which apparently has some new hardware that is not handled well. there are lots of forum posts about it but I can't run apt-get update because i have NO connection
[06:11] <blanky> you mean to that one other guy that said pipe it to a text file
[06:11] <windswept> wweasel  no problem  do you know who should I goto to find out about booting issues?
[06:11] <FlyingSquirrel33> how do I enable ICA connections with tsclient?
[06:11] <craigbass1976> professor, there you go.
[06:11] <professor> craigbass1976, how do I get private im
[06:11] <professor> thanks craig
[06:11] <riotkittie> viva la pipe
[06:11] <wweasel> windswept: No idea. Ask the question and see who answers :D
[06:11] <wweasel> trainer_: Can you put files on a usb key then transfer them over?
[06:11] <craigbass1976> professor, right click on my name and "open dialog window"
[06:12] <trainer_> windsept, I set it, i can ping and load my router web interface, and ping other machines on my network but can't resolve anything outside
[06:12] <andrew_> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/520/
[06:12] <windswept> I am looking for help booting a machine.  The default kernel does not work.  What is the name of the 6.06-LTS distribution Dapper?
[06:12] <prestocaso> i have suddenly lost audio any ideas anyone
[06:12] <craigbass1976> WHAT?
[06:12] <prestocaso> i had it for weeks no problem
[06:12] <Falstius> trainer_: you probably can add your router to /etc/resolv.conf as "nameserver <router.ip>"
[06:13] <windswept> trainer_  route add default gw (ip address of router)
[06:13] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: tar -zcf crap.tar.gz .??*
[06:13] <windswept> trainer_  then follow the instructions of Falstius
[06:13] <blanky> GUYS!
[06:13] <threeonefour> how do i install java
[06:13] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, thank you :)
[06:13] <riotkittie> lost?  hm. are you muted by any chance?  are you getting a msg about the sound device being in use? anything?
[06:13] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, why the double '??'?
[06:13] <professor> craigbass1976,  im me
[06:13] <prestocaso> check the mute thing
[06:13] <trainer_> windswept, Falstius ok brb
[06:13] <windswept> threeonefour  look on the howtoforge on that.   apt-get jdk?
[06:13] <imbecile> ok guys, i am missing out on something here, I have ipw3945 and i know it should run out of the box but i dont see any wifi connections in network manager.. is there perhaps some dependancies I'm missing?
[06:13] <blanky> my friend just installed ubuntu on mac, and he says he doesnt remember having typed in a username and password, what is the default one?
[06:13] <professor> brb
[06:14] <wweasel> prestocaso: Make sure PCM is not set way low
[06:14] <Peebo> nolimitsoya: the only files that would miss are files that start with a . and then only have 1 letter names  e.g .d
[06:14] <prestocaso> not muted volume all the way up and no messages
[06:14] <Knelix> blanky: Is your friend dual-booting?
[06:14] <crimsun> andrew_: you're receiving that error because your system has no ICH5 device
[06:14] <craigbass1976> threeonefour, I can do it in Fedora.  I can email you directions if you want, but I don't know how different things are in Ubuntu
[06:14] <nolimitsoya> Peebo, then wouldnt '.?*' be a better idea?
[06:14] <crimsun> andrew_: what's the output from ``asoundconf list''?
[06:14] <andrew_> 1 sec
[06:14] <blanky> Knelix: yes
[06:14] <Falstius> blanky: you can boot into single user mode (recovery) and that will give you root access.  Then set the password or add a user.
[06:14] <blanky> Falstius: ohhh right i remember that thanks
[06:14] <wweasel> prestocaso: (To see PCM Volume, right click on the speaker in the top right and click Open Volume Control
[06:15] <andrew_> crimsun: Just "Live"
[06:15] <crimsun> andrew_: ok, you need to execute ``asoundconf set-default-card Live'' then log out and back in
[06:15] <craigbass1976> professor, you should have a window popping up somewhere.
[06:15] <Knelix> blanky: How? This is what I'm trying to do on my iBook right now.
[06:15] <andrew_> crimsun: k ill try
[06:15] <riotkittie> or run alsamixer in a term
[06:15] <trainer_> windswept, i did $ route add default gw 192.168.1.254
[06:15] <mena> i need a help in solving this problem any one else know how the prob is that i had reformated my partitiones with Gparted to ext3 From Ntfs Then i made arestar and i didnt find them at my desktop ....Any solution
[06:15] <blanky> Knelix: read Falstius's message
[06:15] <windswept> What is the name of the 6.06-LTS distribution Dapper?
[06:15] <prestocaso> alll my volumes are all the way up
[06:15] <crimsun> windswept: yes
[06:15] <blanky> Falstius: oh right, i forgot how to change the password
[06:15] <windswept> trainer_ you need to be root.
[06:15] <trainer_> and got: SIOCADDRT: File exists
[06:16] <Falstius> blanky: passwd <username>
[06:16] <trainer_> yes i used sudo
[06:16] <blanky> Falstius: thanks :')
[06:16] <crimsun> prestocaso: pastebin (see topic) the output from ``amixer'', then tell me the url
[06:16] <threeonefour> windswept, craigbass1976, i have free java but i  don't know if it would work well with sakai so i need  jre or something like that but apt-get doesnt work
[06:16] <riotkittie> ok stupid question time - re samba.
[06:17] <windswept> threeonefour  you may need to add a repostory to your sources.list for java
[06:17] <prestocaso> sorry you lost me crimsun
[06:17] <Harkonnen20> Bah i still can't get the livecd to run
[06:17] <elyon225> Does anyone here use Tilda?  Is it nice?
[06:17] <prestocaso> still real new to this
[06:17] <riotkittie> on second thought forget it
[06:17] <riotkittie> i just installed Tilda yesterday
[06:17] <threeonefour> windsweot, ok thx i'll try that
[06:17] <Harkonnen20> says Screen(s) found, but none with a usable configuration
[06:17] <riotkittie> i am fond of it. had been using a transparent term + alltray
[06:18] <riotkittie> but find tilda more convenient
[06:18] <windswept> threeonefour  http://blog.agileware.net/index.php/archives/2005/09/30/how-to-install-java-on-ubuntu-linux/
[06:18] <andrew_> crimsun: THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! I thought I was going to have to re-install
[06:18] <crimsun> prestocaso: open a Terminal, type the command ``amixer'' (without the backticks and apostrophes), paste that output onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org , then tell me the url
[06:18] <prestocaso> got it and thanks
[06:18] <Knelix> What file system should I choose when formatting the drive on a Mac?
[06:18] <threeonefour> windswept, never mind   i have an ID10T error
[06:18] <windswept> threeonefour https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[06:18] <elyon225> riotkittie: What does it do?  You hit F1 and it opens a terminal for you, right?
[06:19] <trainer_> Falstius I don't have an /etc/resolv.conf
[06:19] <riotkittie> oooh, pastebin, thats cool
[06:19] <xtknight> what does this error mean?   The drive appears confused (ireason = 0xd0). Trying to recover by ending request.
[06:19] <riotkittie> elyon225 >> yeah, basically  :)
[06:19] <threeonefour> windswept, thx though
[06:19] <blanky> Falstius: my friend siad there's no recovery optino in his boot menu, there's only linux, mac, and CD. Is there another way? Maybe through another tty, nevermind, he needs to login too...can't he do something through the live cd?
[06:19] <g> hello
[06:19] <elyon225> Nice.. I'll give it a try
[06:19] <blanky> isn't that weird, he has no ubuntu recovery option
[06:19] <threeonefour> windswept, plus i am using edubuntu
[06:20] <riotkittie> i'm totally in love with it. it does come in handy.
[06:20] <prestocaso> which syntax
[06:20] <mena> i need a help in solving this problem any one else know how.. prob is that i had reformated my partitiones with Gparted to ext3 From Ntfs Then i made arestart nd i didnt find them at my desktop ....Any solution
[06:20] <Knelix> What file system format do you guys recommend for Ubuntu on a Mac?
[06:20] <theidiotthatisme> mena: did you check them under /mnt or /media?
[06:21] <nolimitsoya> Knelix, same as for any other hw
[06:21] <prestocaso> crimsun does it matter which syntax
[06:21] <engaged> I have a main public_html with a .htaccess to redirect to a new domain, but I have a subdomain with folder public_html/subname and I want that domain to not be counted in the redirect in the main .htaccess... how can I do that?
[06:21] <riotkittie> squeeeaaaaaal. i am so happpppy. on the other hand, i am also so lazy :\
[06:21] <crimsun> prestocaso: text is fine.
[06:21] <prestocaso> ok just making sure
[06:21] <riotkittie> and so addicted to the internets.
[06:21] <Knelix> nolimitsoya: And what would that be (there are many options in the format app)?
[06:21] <nolimitsoya> mena, youll need to edit your /etc/fstab to reflect the new fs type
[06:21] <lardarse> does anyone know how to install custom fonts?
[06:21] <mena> i alredy try to mount then but also i didnt find them .....if that what u mean
[06:22] <prestocaso> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/521/
[06:22] <prestocaso> there you go
[06:22] <riotkittie> gparted's on the live cd, right?
[06:22] <studio> mena: how many partitions total do you have?
[06:22] <xtknight> how do i enable old X-style resizing in gnome?  (i.e. where it shows the dimensions, sort of like when you resize the terminal, except i want it to just show the borders as im resizing)
[06:22] <crimsun> lardarse: if they're TTFs, place them in ~/.fonts/ , then execute ``sudo fc-cache -f -v''
[06:22] <craigbass1976> lardarse, isn't there a fonts directory somewhere that you can just copy a downloaded font into?
[06:22] <mena> 6
[06:22] <nolimitsoya> Knelix, the default is ext3. if you dont have any special demands (or if you dont know what to use) use ext3
[06:22] <riotkittie> oh wait. ubuntu live cds crawl for me.
[06:22] <andrew_> riotkittie: yes
[06:22] <riotkittie> :\
[06:22] <Knelix> nolimitsoya: Okay. Thanks.
[06:22] <craigbass1976> professor, you still there?
[06:22] <arkanhell> espaol
[06:22] <blanky> Guys, my friend installed on a mac and he doesn't remember having typed anything for the username and pass (installed using alternate disk) and he doesn't have a recovery ubuntu option in his boot menu, what can he do?!
[06:22] <mena> studio : 6
[06:23] <lardarse> craigbass1976: possibly, except i don't know where, and i don't know what format they need to be in
[06:23] <xtknight> !es | arkanhell
[06:23] <ubotu> arkanhell: Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[06:23] <blanky> please?
[06:23] <n2diy> ! es
[06:23] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[06:23] <studio> mena: ok, check the /dev directory...if there's an hda(1-6) or sda(1-6) then you have to mount them
[06:23] <craigbass1976> lardarse, ttf should work
[06:23] <riotkittie> but i can pop the live cd in, move my partitions around and use the system, right?
[06:23] <jmg> blanky: init=/bin/sh
[06:23] <Falstius> blanky: in the grub menu, select the ubuntu install, hit e.  Go to the kernel line, hit e.  Add "single" to the end.  Hit enter a few times until it boots.
[06:23] <blanky> jmg: what about that?
[06:23] <Bhaskar> professor: i have one problem, i have laptop but it has password on bios, i dont know the password, how can i remove password from bios
[06:23] <craigbass1976> blanky, he can boot off the ubuntu disk, chroot to the / partition on the hard drive, then sudo password
[06:23] <professor> craigbass1976, yea I am here
[06:23] <blanky> THANKS GUYS!!!!!!!
[06:23] <blanky> I'll read all of your messages
[06:23] <professor> easy
[06:24] <professor> Bhaskar, take apart the laptop
[06:24] <Bhaskar> please,  i have one problem, i have laptop but it has password on bios, i dont know the password, how can i remove password from bios
[06:24] <professor> and take the two batterys out
[06:24] <mena> studio:mounted them throw terminal but i still cant see them ...and after arebort it doesnt mount
[06:24] <professor> for like a min
[06:24] <professor> then put them back it
[06:24] <professor> in*
[06:24] <jmg> Bhaskar: listen to professor
[06:24] <hoehaver> i have ubuntu 6.06 and im needing a source list. can someone give me a link to a good one?
[06:24] <jmg> it will wipe the cmos back to default
[06:24] <blanky> Falstius: what would that do, recover?
[06:24] <craigbass1976> professor, whoah, that's security... NOT!
[06:24] <professor> lol
[06:24] <riotkittie> hehehehe
[06:25] <jmg> blanky: do what Falstius says
[06:25] <brussel> I don't see a real audio application, what's the solution?
[06:25] <professor> I acutally just did it the other day
[06:25] <xtknight> any idea what this is supposed to mean? [29101.482343]  cdrom_pc_intr, write: dev hdf: type=d, flags=1088
[06:25] <studio> mena: did you specify a location for mounting when you mounted them? i.e. > mount -l ext3 /mountpoint
[06:25] <professor> found a computer in the garbage
[06:25] <hoehaver> and also..when i have updates and i click the icon...it will work for a minute...but it never actually finishes.
[06:25] <blanky> thanks jmg
[06:25] <prestocaso> personally as one new to linux and ubuntu thank you guys for being here
[06:25] <professor> had a password on Bios
[06:25] <studio> mena: and to make it moutn on boot you have to add an entry to /etc/fstab
[06:25] <hoehaver> i always have to go in a term and type sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:25] <Falstius> blanky: it will boot into a root prompt, it is what the recover option probably does (I don't think I've ever actually used ubuntu's recovery entry)
[06:25] <craigbass1976> Manufacturers need to start welding those things shut and hooking up explosives.  Oh wait, Dell alraedy did that...
[06:25] <professor> so I took the batteries out
[06:25] <professor> lol
[06:25] <professor> thats funny
[06:25] <jmg> Falstius: recovery appends single
[06:25] <Bhaskar> professor: i take out battery of bias ,but not
[06:25] <blanky> Falstius: thanks
[06:25] <craigbass1976> Go go gadget laptop!
[06:26] <blanky> does anyone here run a mac?
[06:26] <Falstius> jmg: I suppose I could have just check menu.1st to see that :)
[06:26] <blanky> is the mac boot menu the same as pc? (grub) ?
[06:26] <riotkittie> i am just starting to get comfortable with ubuntu. not the first distro i'd have chosen for my return to linux but i am glad i have it
[06:26] <professor> Bhaskar, take ou the batteries in the motherboard
[06:26] <professor> then put them back in
[06:26] <n2diy> ! enter | professor
[06:26] <ubotu> professor: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:26] <Falstius> blanky: I think so.  If it is lilo you can do something similar but I can't tell you exactly what keys to hit.
[06:26] <hoehaver> does anyone know a good source list for ubuntu 6.06?
[06:26] <crimsun> prestocaso: amixer set 'Surround' 80%,80% && amixer set 'Center' 80% && amixer set 'LFE' 80% && amixer set 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' on
[06:26] <mena> studio: I mount them by this  sudo mkdir /media/hda5
[06:26] <mena> sudo mount /dev/hda5 /media/hda5
[06:26] <mena> sudo chmod 777 /media/hda5
[06:26] <blanky> Falstius: hanks for your help, he says he can't highlight sleections so im guessing he does not have grub
[06:27] <abramhollon> :-)
[06:27] <abramhollon> hi
[06:27] <craigbass1976> professor, did you see a seperate dialog box anywhere with a message from me?
[06:27] <xtknight> hoehaver: anything missing from the original that you'd like?
[06:27] <professor> yea I keep writing to you in the message
[06:27] <studio> mena: and you didn't get any errors? then you're good, the partitions are just empty
[06:27] <xtknight> abramhollon: hey
[06:27] <bimberi> !easysource | hoehaver
[06:27] <ubotu> hoehaver: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[06:27] <craigbass1976> professor, they didn't come through.  Did you hit enter?
[06:27] <professor> yea
[06:27] <Falstius> blanky: he might have to hit escape to get the grub menu.
[06:27] <professor> I just sent another one
[06:27] <craigbass1976> hmmm
[06:27] <mena> and the /etc/fstab when i paste it it telling me permision denied
[06:27] <professor> send me one
[06:27] <emun> help please, when i boot up with ubuntu live cd i can see the parallel port in device manager, but check my installed ubuntu 6.10 there is no parallel port recognized in device manager , what is happening please
[06:28] <blanky> Falstius: okay thanks i'll tell him
[06:28] <Falstius> if you'd like to contribute to my buy falstius a mac mini fund I'd be happy to delve into this more deeply once I have one ;)
[06:28] <elyon225> Is there some kind of replacement terminal for gnome that includes color?
[06:28] <hoehaver> xtknight well...i was having problems when i did sudo apt-get update i would get errors. someone in here had me do something ( i forget what) and i deleted one of the things in the source list...
[06:28] <studio> mena: all you have to do now is edit the /etc/fstab to make them mount at boot... you have to sudo the fstab part, and it will be a bit different than the command
[06:28] <blanky> hahaha thanks Falstius :)
[06:28] <hoehaver> i just need the origanal...thats fine with me...
[06:28] <FlyingSquirrel33> whats the simplest way to permanently add something to my path variable?
[06:28] <riotkittie> mac minis are sooooo cute.
[06:28] <prestocaso> so crimsun how would i adjust that
[06:28] <craigbass1976> elyon225, there's Konsole, and xterm
[06:28] <xtknight> hoehaver: well i have edgy so im afraid i wont be much help
[06:28] <mena> studio, okay bt how
[06:29] <professor> craigbass1976, did you send me one
[06:29] <lowell> Is there some difference between beryl and compiz ?
[06:29] <elyon225> craigbass1976: Which would you suggest?
[06:29] <studio> mena: i'd reccomend looking over the fstab file for a bit and mimicking the other ext3 partitions (i.e the / partition)
[06:29] <hoehaver> ok. its cool.
[06:29] <craigbass1976> professor, a while ago
[06:29] <sean_> hey, can anyone think of what irc channel i might be able to get some help with apache on windows? other than #apache and #windows i mean.
[06:29] <craigbass1976> elyon225, I like Konsole, but you may have to install KDE
[06:29] <wichanan> hi room
[06:29] <studio> mena: it should look pretty straightforward, just make sure you don't set 2 partiotions to mount at  /
[06:29] <studio> :p
[06:29] <lowell> nevermind that question
[06:29] <elyon225> craigbass1976: I've already installed kdebase.
[06:29] <lowell> found the answer
[06:29] <abramhollon> can i play a  dvd?
[06:29] <mena> ok
[06:29] <craigbass1976> elyon225, what do you mean colors?
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, got it?
[06:30] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: yeah, wikipedia...  =)
[06:30] <professor> craigbass1976, I have not registered and it says it is blocked
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> :)
[06:30] <elyon225> craigbass1976: I'm not sure, actually... just seems really dull.  I've seen screenshots of different things being done in the terminal that are colored.
[06:30] <hoehaver> xtknight has all the bugs been worked out in edgy? my buddy had knot 2 i think and he said everything would f* up.
[06:30] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: although I am having a weird problem, anytime I hit the Alt key it moves the window to the right
[06:30] <hoehaver> with firefox and...what ever else.
[06:30] <craigbass1976> professor, Ahh, you haev to register your nick on freenode
[06:30] <lowell> all the keys seem screwed up
[06:30] <mena> studio, i searched for the file and i found many files what to open
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, odd, doesn't do this for me in Beryl.
[06:30] <professor> craigbass1976,  yea how do I do that
[06:30] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, you're on Beryl?
[06:30] <lowell> I'm using compiz
[06:30] <crimsun> prestocaso: copy and paste verbatim that command I gave you.
[06:31] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, ahh, change the keymaps?
[06:31] <lowell> vanilla install of edgy
[06:31] <professor> craigbass1976,  and it wont let me open links in this chat either
[06:31] <prestocaso> ok that was a command, got it
[06:31] <craigbass1976> elyon225, you might have been looking at someone editing a file.  If you vi a file, are things colored then?  Like a shell script?
[06:31] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, should be under the Beryl Manager or whatever the Compiz equivalent is.  That's where it is for me.
[06:31] <studio> mena: open it with your favorite text editor ... i.e. sudo vi /etc/fstab  or   sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[06:31] <craigbass1976> professor, I can't remember.  Lemme check.
[06:31] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: yeah, I'll have to find it.  Seems like it would just work properly on a vanilla install of edgy though
[06:31] <lowell> hehe
[06:31] <emun> parallel ports not recognized in ubuntu 6.10 but but live cd shows the parallel port , is this a bug
[06:32] <mena> studio, i open that
[06:32] <mena> then
[06:32] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: is beryl the better version of compiz then ?
[06:32] <prestocaso> did it, and nothing
[06:33] <threeonefour> i have a problem with SciTE i am trying to compile a C program and i get this error  >1
[06:33] <threeonefour> sh: 1: not found
[06:33] <threeonefour> >Exit code: 127
[06:33] <lowell> from what I'm reading, that seems to be the case
[06:33] <craigbass1976> professor, I think if you type /msg nickserv register <your-password> you'll do it.  Professor might be taken though.
[06:33] <crimsun> prestocaso: is audio still inaudible?
[06:33] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, well, Beryl has more features, but its slightly buggier. For me, this means that it crashes 5-6 times in 24 hours.
[06:33] <studio> mena: then look at what your  root ( / ) partion entry looks like. make one exactly like it except change the mount point and the /dev/hda1 part
[06:33] <bobby> the package foomatic-filters-ppds_20060406-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[06:33] <bobby>  in 6.10 repo's appears to be broken (I can't download it from several different sources) ... how do I get around this problem?
[06:33] <alibaba> hey
[06:33] <studio> mena: type it right on the bottom of the list
[06:33] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: that's fine... I just want to play with it anyway
[06:33] <craigbass1976> professor, click out of this chat though (don't leave, just do it in another window--the freenode one would work)
[06:33] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, a crash involves right-clicking the icon in the systray and selecting 'Reload window manager', takes like 10 seconds.  I much prefer Beryl's shininess.
[06:33] <wichanan>  /msg nickserv register 111111
[06:33] <Falstius> craigbass1976: I think Elyon meant highlighting different file types and a colored prompt in the terminal.  But he's gone know.
[06:34] <prestocaso> no audio crimsun
[06:34] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: the one thing I already hate in compiz is the wobbly menus... just awful
[06:34] <craigbass1976> Falstius, does xterm do that?
[06:34] <lowell> I'm looking for the setting to turn that crap off
[06:34] <lowell> hehe
[06:34] <alibaba> anyone know how install video codecs for my dvds
[06:34] <bobby> lowell, just disable it in the options
[06:34] <d1gita1> i am trying to run mplayer (paused) and festival at the same time and i get this:  Linux: can't open /dev/dsp what am i doing wrong?
[06:34] <lowell> the cube stuff is cool
[06:34] <mena> here
[06:34] <abramhollon> is ubuntu setup to play dvd's automaticly... cause i put a dvd in and got an error from todem
[06:34] <Falstius> craigbass1976: yes, although I think it is technically bash that assigns the colors.
[06:34] <Music_Shuffle> lowell, Menus wobble? /Never seen that. Lol. I like Beryl's customization menu.
[06:34] <d1gita1> is there a way to force festival ro use alsa? perhaps this would help?
[06:34] <professor> craigbass1976,  what do I do?  having trouble understanding
[06:34] <Music_Shuffle> !codecs | abramhollon
[06:34] <ubotu> abramhollon: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:34] <userundefine> abramhollon, you need the codecs.
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> Beat you to it ;)
[06:35] <lowell> Music_Shuffle: the menus dance around... it's horrible
[06:35] <lowell> hehe
[06:35] <userundefine> :P
[06:35] <bobby> lowell, again: just disable it in settings
[06:35] <craigbass1976> type /join #craigsroom
[06:35] <Music_Shuffle> They...dance!? I like my windows exploding and going genie on me, not my menus doing odd stuff. :P
[06:35] <craigbass1976> professor, type /join #craigsroom
[06:35] <abramhollon> thanks
[06:35] <bobby> craigbass1976, if I do that can I flame your room?
[06:35] <mena> studio, they are right the type is ntfs
[06:35] <craigbass1976> bobby, wait until I leave :)
[06:36] <bobby> craigbass1976, righto ;)
[06:36] <professor> craigbass1976,  ok I joined
[06:36] <sniper> hello people
[06:36] <prestocaso> hello
[06:36] <craigbass1976> bobby, I'll let you know, ok?
[06:36] <crimsun> prestocaso: aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav
[06:36] <prestocaso> paste in terminal correct
[06:36] <mena> studio, the type is wrong
[06:36] <studio> mena: you said you reformatted it tho right? (hehe i forgot that you'd have those ntfs entries)  ok delete the ntfs entrie(s) and replace it with the ext3 entries that look exactly like the root partition entry
[06:36] <sniper> im trying to install an upgrade to amsn but dont know how newbie
[06:37] <crimsun> prestocaso: yes
[06:37] <studio> mena: follow that?
[06:37] <bobby> so how would I go about getting package foomatic-filters-ppds_20060406-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[06:37] <bobby>  to be fixed?
[06:37] <mena> studio, ok
[06:37] <bobby> no matter what source I get it from it wont download more than 4,997,632 of it
[06:37] <bobby> 15:30:36 (51.34 KB/s) - Connection closed at byte 4997632. Retrying.
[06:37] <d1gita1> is there a way to force festival ro use alsa?
[06:38] <threeonefour> craigbass1976, do you know scite
[06:38] <mena> stusio, i done it then save
[06:38] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[06:38] <mena> studio,
[06:38] <sniper> what is the command to install a package?
[06:38] <craigbass1976> threeonefour, no.  This is the first I've heard of it
[06:38] <Kragnerac> Hello, when I try to start Kubuntu up from LiveCD, it goes into a kernel panic... Can anyone help me? :(
[06:38] <studio> mena: after saving, you have to reboot for it to take effect
[06:38] <userundefine> sniper, sudo apt-get install *package*
[06:38] <mena> studio, studio
[06:38] <crimsun> prestocaso: cat /proc/asound/cards
[06:38] <Riyonuk> Im on windows T_T
[06:38] <studio> mena: lol what?
[06:38] <bobby> Kragnerac, use ubuntu...kubuntu sucks :)
[06:39] <mena> studio, thanks studio verymuch
[06:39] <mena> studio, brb
[06:39] <Riyonuk> I need to know whats the minimum I can resize windows too...I did 2GB and it wouldnt boot :(
[06:39] <Kragnerac> bobby: Ubuntu just freezes, and then restarts...
[06:39] <studio> mena: no prob
[06:39] <Kragnerac> :(
[06:39] <mena> studio, ok
[06:40] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[06:40] <studio> Riyonuk: what partitioner are you using? i think gparted gives you a minimum size
[06:40] <Riyonuk> ?
[06:40] <crimsun> prestocaso: no, you're supposed to paste the output from that command
[06:40] <Riyonuk> alternate cd
[06:40] <prestocaso> got it, coming up
[06:40] <Riyonuk> would 10gb do it?
[06:40] <LineOf7s> I'm trying to write a script that waits until a key (any key) is pressed before continuing.  Is there a parameter I can pass to 'sleep' to get it to wait for a key, or is there another command I'm yet to trip over on Google?
[06:41] <prestocaso>  0 [Audigy         ] : Audigy - Audigy 1 [SB0090] 
[06:41] <prestocaso>                       Audigy 1 [SB0090]  (rev.3, serial:0x531102) at 0xd400, irq 201
[06:41] <prestocaso> that waht you wqnted
[06:41] <Kragnerac> I just upgraded to an ATI X1300 card for christmas, and that's when the problem started. I switched to my onboard graphics chip and took out the ATI, and it worked fine.
[06:41] <Riyonuk> and is it wise to make a 4th partition for /home?
[06:41] <studio> Riyonuk: what do you mean 'alternate cd'? and yes 10 gigs is big enough for windows, provided you dont' ahve more than 10 gigs of data on that partition :p
[06:41] <Falstius> LineOf7s: what's wrong with good ol' "press Enter to continue"
[06:41] <crimsun> prestocaso: try this: kill $(lsof -t /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*) && sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-emu10k1
[06:41] <Bhaskar> professor: i have one problem in ubuntu, i delete files from pen drive it seems to be empty, but while i chech it in window, it shows .trace folder with all files that have deleted why??
[06:42] <LineOf7s> Fal:  Nothing - except I want the script to wait until they press Enter (or anything else) rather than just echoing that and continuing.
[06:42] <LineOf7s> Sorry: Falstius
[06:42] <phish2> hey, anyone ever setup lvm2 for ubuntu?
[06:42] <mena> studio, plz one mor thing
[06:42] <studio> mena: yes?
[06:43] <Falstius> LineOf7s: you can use readline to get it to pause until enter.  I don't know of a press any key command (I looked once, briefly)
[06:43] <prestocaso> should i reload volume control crimsun
[06:43] <mena> studio, when i try to save i found just save as ...that would be right or what
[06:43] <phish2> I've put my root drive as a lvm lv group
[06:43] <phish2> and I try to boot it
[06:43] <sniper> how do you  install a package that is a tar.bz2
[06:43] <studio> mena: as long as you saved it as fstab
[06:43] <phish2> but it just freezes at "waiting for root filesystem"
[06:44] <crimsun> prestocaso: yes
[06:44] <mena> studio, yes i did ok
[06:44] <Kragnerac> Is there a problem with Ubuntu and ATI compatibility?
[06:44] <studio> mena: do this in a terminal      cat /etc/fstab      if it's what you saved then you're good
[06:44] <phish2> eventually it'll drop into busybox and I can use lvm to activate the groups
[06:44] <LineOf7s> Falstius:  I shall investigate 'readline' and the like.  Thankyou for the pointer.
[06:44] <Riyonuk> and is it wise to make a 4th partition for /home?
[06:44] <phish2> then I exit and it boots it
[06:44] <phish2> but I have to do it every boot up
[06:44] <mena> studio, no its not
[06:44] <phish2> and it takes like 5 minutes before it drops into busybox
[06:44] <tonyyarusso> Riyonuk: It is good to have a separate home, yes.
[06:44] <phish2> anyone got any ideas?
[06:45] <mena> studio, repeat the prossec
[06:45] <studio> mena: lol then you have to redo it, and this time just hit save, not save as
[06:45] <prestocaso> after that and my password crimsun i got this: FATAL: Module snd_emu10k1 is in use.
[06:45] <phish2> I've googled for hours and can't find crap.
[06:45] <crimsun> prestocaso: lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*
[06:45] <mena> studio, when i rty to press save there is nothing the svae button didnt appear
[06:46] <studio> mena: what text editor are you using?
[06:46] <phish2> hmm
[06:46] <prestocaso> you want this info?
[06:46] <mena> studio, gedit
[06:46] <crimsun> prestocaso: onto pastebin
[06:46] <phish2> it looks like lvm just isn't scanning
[06:47] <phish2> device mapper support is in the initramfs image
[06:47] <Falstius> LineOf7s: sorry, readline is the library, read is the bash command.  For "press any key" you could do "read -n 1"
[06:47] <studio> mena: try this 'sudo pico /etc/fstab' << that will give you a terminal text editor. when you're done typing press ctrl + x . then press enter a couple times till you're back on the terminal line
[06:47] <phish2> I apt-get install'd lvm2..... :/
[06:47] <phish2> what else is there too it?
[06:47] <prestocaso> here you go crimsun http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/523/
[06:47] <phish2> any boot args I need?
[06:47] <mena> studio, ok
[06:48] <studio> mena: oops i goofed, you have to press 'y' at the first prompt
[06:48] <LineOf7s> Falstius:  I love you with a passion normally reserved for soft vegetables.  Thankyou - it worked a treat.
[06:48] <crimsun> prestocaso: kill 6737 6736 6733 && sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-emu10k1
[06:48] <windswept> oye!!! if your machine does not boot on install you are really hosed right?
[06:48] <crimsun> prestocaso: note that's one line.
[06:48] <mena> studio, ok
[06:49] <Falstius> LineOf7s: read -s -n1 works better (-s means don't echo, so the character is hidden)
[06:49] <windswept> (that is after you do the install and it does the first boot)
[06:49] <LineOf7s> Falstius:  Thankyou again.  I shall amend accordingly.
[06:49] <threeonefour> i have a problem with SciTE i am trying to compile a C program and i get this error  >1
[06:49] <threeonefour> sh: 1: not found
[06:49] <Kragnerac> Anyone? :(
[06:49] <threeonefour> >Exit code: 127
[06:49] <prestocaso> copy and paste it all correct
[06:49] <alibaba> how do i log in as root
[06:50] <alibaba> well?
[06:50] <Asc> windswept, hard to say.  If you're eleet enough, it might be possible to recover a damaged install.
[06:50] <Falstius> alibaba, you shouldn't and be default can't.  Why do you want to?
[06:50] <prestocaso> and then i got a reload option and new audio devices found thats what we wanted correct
[06:50] <windswept> Krragnerac you are asking about ATI?
[06:50] <crimsun> prestocaso: correct
[06:50] <studio> Kragnerac: no i don't think so ( I don't have ATI myself) but i do know in order to get decent graphics you have to download the drivers from a different repository (or a website)
[06:51] <alibaba> its my computer and its denying me write access
[06:51] <mena> studio, i done it
[06:51] <kyncani> !sudo | alibaba
[06:51] <ubotu> alibaba: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:51] <mena> studio, it should be ext3 right
[06:51] <studio> mena: cool, hope it works for you!
[06:51] <mena> studio, ok
[06:51] <studio> mena: yes, as long as that's what you formatted the partition as
[06:51] <alibaba> than
[06:51] <Kragnerac> windswept: Yes.
[06:51] <LumaQQ> how do i log in as root in Nautilus
[06:51] <windswept> asc  I am not sure if I am elete enough.  I have placed in another kernel but I have no clue where to get the initrd.img that would work with it.
[06:51] <alibaba> thanx
[06:51] <mena> studio, i will rebort brb and i will let you know
[06:51] <mena> brb
[06:51] <studio> mena: ok i'll wait here
[06:52] <LumaQQ> LumaQQ: how do i log in as root in Nautilus
[06:52] <Music_Shuffle> LumaQQ, sudo nautilus
[06:52] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[06:52] <windswept> Asc, so I am getting close but I need to speak to somebody who would have a clue on things like where to find the initrd.
[06:53] <Asc> windswept, did you a) compile the kernel yourself, b) remove the old one?
[06:53] <Falstius> Music_Shuffle: does it matter if he does sudo or gsudo for nautilus?  I never know when it actually matters.
[06:53] <windswept> Asc, I know that the cd worked fine.  I tried that kernel but the initrd that went with it just started the installation again.
[06:53] <Kragnerac> If anyone needs info, I am running a VisionTek X1300 PCI
[06:53] <Kragnerac> 256MB
[06:53] <Music_Shuffle> Falstius, no idea, but if he asks again and says sudo didn't work, tell hi mto use gksudo ;)
[06:54] <windswept> Asc, neither  I am placing any kernel I can onto my /boot  (by booting into knoppix and then copying the files over) and then trying to boot on that kernel.
[06:54] <threeonefour> who knows about error codes in scite
[06:54] <windswept> Asc, this is a brand new install
[06:54] <crimsun> prestocaso: pastebin ``amixer''
[06:54] <OpenStandards> hi, i'm looking to install onto an external hard drive using the alternative cd i've done a fdisk -l but doesn't show any sda entries
[06:54] <prestocaso> ok
[06:54] <keithhhhh> I just installed icecast2 but I dont know where the files went....can anyone give some help?
[06:54] <windswept> Asc, sorry that was I know that the kernel that the CD used worked fine.
[06:54] <professor> How can I get WINE to play games
[06:55] <rlared_> is there anyone that might be able to help me with an xmodmap problem?
[06:55] <windswept> openstandards...  so you created the partitions right?
[06:55] <windswept> openstandards did you mkfs.ext3 on the new partition?
[06:55] <Asc> windswept, Um, okay.  When you try to boot from the disk, does GRUB load?
[06:56] <windswept> Asc, yes
[06:56] <windswept> Asc, I am modifing the grub for the kernels that I try to load.
[06:56] <prestocaso> here you go crimsun http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/524/
[06:56] <Falstius> what error did the default kernel give you?
[06:57] <professor> auto run error 2
[06:57] <windswept> Falstius the default kernel just reboots after the word boot appears on the screen.
[06:57] <studio> mena: how'd it got?
[06:57] <crimsun> prestocaso: amixer set 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' on
[06:57] <mena> studio, nothing
[06:57] <Asc> windswept: Okay.  Uh, interesting.  You're *really sure* that the default settings weren't working?
[06:57] <mena> studio,the same
[06:57] <studio> mena: what do you mean?
[06:58] <windswept> Asc, as I mentioned the machine just reboots after the word boot appears from grub.
[06:58] <studio> mena: type 'mount' in the terminal
[06:58] <studio> mena: do you see the partitions you tried to mount?
[06:58] <mena> studio, the partitions didnt appear
[06:58] <Falstius> windswept: that is definitely odd.  So what happens with the new kernel?
[06:58] <mena> studio, ok
[06:58] <Asc> windswept: Okay, now I get it.
[06:58] <rlared_> does anyone know know why my keycodes are reported as different numbers by xkeysymtokeycode?
[06:58] <windswept> Falstius problem is that I can not find a new kernel that will get that far.
[06:58] <prestocaso> nothing still crimsun
[06:59] <mena> studio, i dont see them
[06:59] <Falstius> windswept: you could just compile a vanilla kernel and install it.
[06:59] <studio> mena: balls.
[06:59] <renton> Hm, xubuntu alternative install was going fine until 85%, now it appears to have hung
[07:00] <renton> yet i can change to other terminals with perfect response
[07:00] <threeonefour> who knows about error codes in scite
[07:00] <Falstius> windswept: its also possible that the problem isn't the kernel but grub.  I've never seen a kernel problem do that.
[07:00] <renton> any ideas why it's stopped proceeding?
[07:00] <someguy22> can somebody tell me what a generic kernel is?
[07:00] <mena> studio,so
[07:00] <studio> mena: so its not even listed?
[07:00] <OpenStandards> well windswept yes unplugged it and plugged back in and detected... so sorted
[07:00] <windswept> Falstius  this is my first machine that I am using with ubuntu.  I am speaking with you from my windows laptop.
[07:00] <studio> mena: sorry lol i'm thinking
[07:00] <spitwise> does anyone know about decompressing a .sit (stuffit)tm file?
[07:00] <mena> studio, yeb but in the Gparted its there
[07:00] <crimsun> prestocaso: amixer set 'Tone' on
[07:01] <windswept> openstandards when you did fdisk did you see partitions?
[07:01] <mena> whomee
[07:01] <studio> mena: hold on one second
[07:01] <mena> ok
[07:01] <andrew_> anyone: anyone here know how to install Hamachi? or if they dont, at least want to explain how to install things?
[07:01] <windswept> someguy a gerneic kernel is one that you can easily download.
[07:02] <spike723> anyone know how I can have a vga console?
[07:02] <OpenStandards> just hda1. but now i see sda so sorted
[07:02] <prestocaso> nothing crimsun
[07:02] <spike723> I pass grub something like vga=791?
[07:02] <andrew_> anyone: if anybody wants to explain to me how to do this : http://hamachiwiki.com/Install_on_Linux thank you very much!
[07:02] <renton> it's like it's waiting for some response behind the main install script.
[07:02] <windswept> Asc,  Falstius... I just downloaded the package  linux-image-2.6.15-27-386  and it had a kernel but no initrd.  would you know what the deal with that is?
[07:02] <Falstius> someguy22: a generic kernel is either a kernel compiled to work with any x86 processor or a 'vanilla' kernel meaning it hasn't been modified for a particular distribution (like ubuntu)
[07:02] <crimsun> prestocaso: are you -positive- the speakers/headphones are plugged in snugly and into the correct jack(s)?
[07:03] <andrew_> crimsun: can you help me out real quick, check this out http://hamachiwiki.com/Install_on_Linux
[07:03] <prestocaso> let me look again just to be absolutley sure
[07:03] <crimsun> prestocaso: and how are you testing?
[07:03] <Falstius> windswept: it probably creates the initrd when it is installed using mkinitrd
[07:03] <windswept> Falstius, Asc,  btw, I have tried a standard kernel from joeyhess's daily build but that ended up installing debian.
[07:03] <prestocaso> im using test sound in prefrences and also a mp3 file
[07:04] <studio> mena: try looking at this http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[07:04] <Falstius> windswept: er, createinitrd (or something like that, I can't remember the exact command)
[07:04] <crimsun> prestocaso: use the aplay command I gave you a while ago
[07:04] <mena> studio, okay
[07:04] <andrew_> anyone: if anybody wants to explain to me how to do this : http://hamachiwiki.com/Install_on_Linux thank you very much!
[07:04] <harrisony> andrew_: what is it
[07:04] <crimsun> prestocaso: I'm away for a phone conference
[07:04] <prestocaso> give me that command again crimsun
[07:05] <xtknight> where should i report a kernel bug (i'm beyond certain that only people who code the kernel can answer the obscure errors i'm getting)
[07:05] <crimsun> prestocaso: aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav
[07:05] <andrew_> its basically a program that puts you on the same network with anybody you want, virtually
[07:05] <crimsun> xtknight: on launchpad.net
[07:05] <andrew_> harrisony: did you see those directions?
[07:05] <prestocaso> got it ill check it and if nothing ive got to go also thanks
[07:05] <xtknight> crimsun: not the LKML?
[07:05] <harrisony> il lookin
[07:05] <brian_> does anyone know how to get my wireless nic to give out ips and dns and everything
[07:05] <crimsun> xtknight: not the lkml.
[07:06] <crimsun> xtknight: the only exception is if you're using a stock kernel.org kernel
[07:06] <studio> mena: i'm not sure what you'd have to do to mount it, as i can't see your fstab file, but it definitly is mountable if gparted can see it. maybe try to mimick one of the examples in that third box
[07:06] <xtknight> crimsun: hm, well i compiled one myself based on edgy's config.  2.6.19.1.  does that count?
[07:06] <crimsun> xtknight: then send it to lkml.
[07:06] <harrisony> andrew_: have your tried installing
[07:06] <mena> studio, how to log in as a root....bec when i try it telling me i cant from this screen
[07:06] <prestocaso> got to run crimsun just wnated to say thanks for the help
[07:06] <mena> studio. ok
[07:06] <Falstius> brian_: you need to install a dhcp server and probably configure bind.  You could buy/download a book on network administration.
[07:06] <andrew_> harrisony: i dont know even where to start :-/
[07:06] <xtknight> crimsun: actually, it would probably belong on lkml because the driver im having issues with was only added after Edgy's kernel
[07:06] <xtknight> thanks
[07:07] <harrisony> andrew_: ok 1 sec
[07:07] <harrisony> andrew_: have  you downloaded it
[07:07] <studio> mena: you have to do something (that i dont' know how to do) in order to make that possible...sudo should work fine though, and if you have to start a gui program as root then do 'sudo program-name'
[07:07] <brian_> I have dhcp install but how do I get it to give out a essid
[07:08] <andrew_> harrisony: yes
[07:08] <threeonefour> studio, dont forget the mtab file
[07:08] <harrisony> ok can you get a terminal open with it in that folder
[07:08] <mena> studio,ok
[07:09] <andrew_> harrisony: i can open a terminal, i dont know how to point it to my desktop though
[07:09] <d1gita1> cd Desktop
[07:09] <harrisony> ok were is the folder on you desktop?
[07:09] <studio> threeonefour: sorry i'm not sure what that is...i'm actually not an ubuntu user (opensuse)
[07:09] <harrisony> whats the folder called andrew_
[07:09] <andrew_> harrisony: i named it Ham
[07:09] <mena> studio, how to know the program
[07:10] <harrisony> ok go cd ./Desktop/Ham
[07:10] <mena> studio, sorry but i am new in that
[07:10] <studio> mena: the program for what?
[07:10] <threeonefour> studio, i am a suse user as well but there still is an mtab file it can hold info like the fstab file
[07:11] <mena> studio, that you telling me the gui prgram
[07:11] <andrew_> harrisony: k
[07:11] <Falstius> threeonefour: mtab holds information about mounted filesystems and shouldn't be edited by hand (unless you have a really bizarre error)
[07:11] <harrisony> andrew_: sudo make install
[07:11] <studio> mena: o sorry i didn't mean to confuse you with that, i meant if you wanted something like gedit to be run as root then you start it from the command line with 'sudo gedit' etc
[07:12] <andrew_> harrisony: thanks, that worked, lemme read on, i know ill need more help :-)
[07:12] <mena> ohhh reallt
[07:12] <mena> realy
[07:12] <mena> okay
[07:12] <studio> threeonefour: ok i'm not aware of that, i just know how to partition :p
[07:12] <threeonefour> falstius, i have had to edit my mtab  ntfs
[07:12] <harrisony> andrew_: then do sudo /sbin/tuncfg
[07:13] <andrew_> harrisony: i did that

[07:13] <pppoe_dude> what's a good program other than ispell that can do automated spell checking for large/multiple files?
[07:14] <harrisony> no

[07:17] <Spaghetti_Knife> Hi. I have a problem. Whenever I try to open Firefox now, it says that Firefox is running in the background. i force quitted firefox because it was frozen, and i don't know how to shut down the process.
[07:17] <tyme-> Spaghetti_Knife:  kill
[07:17] <Falstius> elyon225: is MUSIC ntfs?
[07:17] <monzie> Falstius: nope
[07:17] <studio> mena : sorry i had a hard time deciphering that last bit
[07:17] <Spaghetti_Knife> What do I type, exactly?
[07:17] <andrew_> harrisony: k
[07:17] <tyme-> !kill | Spaghetti_Knife
[07:17] <ubotu> Spaghetti_Knife: 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
[07:17] <studio> mena: please retype?
[07:17] <monzie> Falstius: it just says "now wireless extensions" to all of them
[07:17] <elyon225> Falstius: No.  Its a folder I copied from my MP3 player to my Linux system.
[07:17] <Falstius> monzie: and modprobe ndiswrapper didn't give an error?
[07:18] <andrew_> harrisony: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/525/
[07:18] <Spaghetti_Knife> typing kill didn't work.
[07:18] <spike723> anyohne know a good site on how to get compiz going in ubuntu?
[07:18] <tyme-> kill <process>
[07:18] <Falstius> elyon225: sudo chmod -r a+rwX /media/MUSIC
[07:18] <r4g3> is there a way to have Ubuntu not install power management? The installer crashes when installing it.
[07:18] <tyme-> ps shows the running processes
[07:18] <harrisony> Spaghetti_Knife: try kill-all firefox-bin
[07:18] <Falstius> elyon225: you could check the permissions with ls -lh /media first
[07:18] <tyme-> man ps for more options
[07:18] <mena> studio, when i told you about logging in did you that i mean when i log throw the login screen and try to log as as root it yelling me cant log throw this screen
[07:19] <elyon225> Falstius:  sudo chmod -r a+rwX /media/MUSIC
[07:19] <kyncani> r4g3: i think you have a bad cd, download the iso again, check the md5sum and burn it to cd
[07:19] <mena> studio, is this the same as you tell me before((the solution))
[07:19] <elyon225> oops
[07:19] <Spaghetti_Knife> harrisony- Didn't work.
[07:19] <elyon225> Falstius: chmod: cannot access `a+rwX': No such file or directory
[07:19] <Falstius> elyon225: capital R
[07:19] <harrisony> Spaghetti_Knife: what did it say
[07:19] <kyncani> r4g3: you can check the cd first when booting the install cd
[07:19] <monzie> "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" produces the output
[07:20] <r4g3> kyncani: I have done that it passes all checksums

[07:20] <andrew_> harrisony: you see whats going on?
[07:20] <Spaghetti_Knife> harrisony: What do I do?
[07:20] <harrisony> andrew_: yep
[07:20] <studio> mena: all i said was that in ubuntu you can't login as root from the main login screen, unless you mess with some things. as far as the solution (to mounting) you could email me a copy of the fstab file you currently have and i could see what i can do
[07:21] <r4g3> kyncani: at what point do I choose that?
[07:21] <harrisony> Spaghetti_Knife: can you paste the output of the command to the pastebin

[07:21] <Spaghetti_Knife> i'll just restart my computer.
[07:21] <studio> mena: lol or pastebin, as harrisony so nicely pointed out
[07:21] <pppoe_dude> harrisony, thnx aspell is slightly better than ispell
[07:21] <harrisony> pppoe_dude: glad i could help
[07:22] <kyncani> r4g3: google for "server install" ubuntu   i'd say
[07:22] <andrew_> harrisony: so what am i doing wrong?
[07:22] <mena> studio, ok i will sen you the file throw here okay
[07:22] <studio> wait
[07:22] <mena> studio, send
[07:22] <studio> mena: i t'll be easier to use pastebin, try that
[07:22] <harrisony> andrew_: i dont know whats going on
[07:23] <studio> mena : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:23] <threeonefour> how to extract a tar.gz file from terminal
[07:23] <andrew_> harrisony: crap
[07:23] <andrew_> anyone: anyone here use Hamachi ????
[07:23] <mena> studio, ok

[07:24] <mena> studion, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/526/
[07:24] <studio> mena ok'
[07:24] <mena> studio, ok
[07:25] <threeonefour> falstius, eg    tar -xzf blah.tar.gz /usr/local/
[07:25] <Falstius> threeonefour: no, if you want to extract it to a different directory it is tar -xzf blah.tar.gz -C /usr/local
[07:25] <studio> mena: what partitions are you trying to mount as ext3?
[07:25] <Menisk> Is there a program that I can use to stream a TV card accross the web with/
[07:25] <threeonefour> falstius, thank you i will write that down
[07:25] <Menisk> ?*
[07:26] <Falstius> threeonefour: or cd to the directory you want to install to and point tar at the original file.
[07:26] <mena> studio, hda6 hda7 hda8 hda5
[07:26] <studio> mena : ok
[07:26] <threeonefour> falstius, how do i point
[07:26] <mena> studio, ok
[07:26] <windswept>  falstius, AHHH!!! I fell and I can't get up oye making mkinitrd  oh no...
[07:26] <windswept> they cann't include that with the kernel?
[07:26] <Falstius> threeonefour: cd /usr/local; tar -xzf /home/me/blah.tgz
[07:27] <Falstius> windswept: no, since it depends on the machine.
[07:27] <threeonefour> oh ok
[07:27] <Falstius> threeonefour: I usually use -C, but it is easy to forget that switch :)
[07:27] <lkas> xsane cannot start
[07:28] <windswept> Falstius there would be differences between the 386 machines?
[07:29] <Falstius> windswept: yes, depending on the hard drive controller, chipset, etc.
[07:29] <Falstius> initrd holds modules that the kernel needs to read the files it needs to boot.  In most cases this is just ext3.ko though.
[07:30] <studio> mena: ok sorry the pastebin is being mean to me, i'll upload it on my server a min...
[07:30] <mena> studio, ok
[07:30] <andrew_> harrisony: you still here?
[07:31] <windswept> falstius and the command again to make that?  (sorry I am right now on a knoppix box and can not mount the true root because it is on a LVM of a raid partition)
[07:31] <harrisony> harrisony is still here
[07:32] <studio> mena: ok here, try this http://www.garslo.com/fstab.txt
[07:32] <elyon225> Since installing kdebase, every link I click on brings up Konqueror - I would rather use FireFox... Firefox is my default web browser.  How do I fix this?
[07:32] <andrew_> harrisony: i got it, now i need your helo installing the graphical front end for it
[07:32] <andrew_> harrisony: ill give you a pastebin URL with the readme
[07:32] <mena> studio,ok
[07:32] <studio> mena: ah crap hold on
[07:32] <harrisony> ok
[07:32] <studio> mena: sorry gotta change one things
[07:32] <mena> ok
[07:32] <Falstius> windswept: I still suspect the problem is with grub (maybe pointing to the wrong place) and not the kernel.  mkinitrd
[07:32] <Falstius> you can read the man page for it to get the arguements.
[07:33] <simon^templar> how do i add normal user to become root/su ?
[07:33] <windswept> falstius sorry I wish that was the case.  but when I point it to new files like those from the cd it worked fine.
[07:33] <andrew_> harrisony: here ya go http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/528/
[07:34] <noiesmo> simon^templar, sudo -i
[07:34] <Falstius> windswept: this page talks about making an initrd file on Debian, should be the same for ubuntu: http://www.edseek.com/archives/2004/03/22/creating-an-initrd-image-on-debian-gnulinux/
[07:34] <noiesmo> simon^templar, sorry misread
[07:34] <windswept> falstius the files systems were enough for me to try over 3 different installes over the past 3 days
[07:34] <studio> mena: ok now try it ...make sure you refresh the page if ur already there
[07:34] <harrisony> chmod +x ghamachi andrew_
[07:34] <elyon225> Since installing kdebase, every link I click on brings up Konqueror - I would rather use FireFox... Firefox is my default web browser.  How do I fix this?
[07:34] <cypher1> simon^templar: /etc/sudoers
[07:34] <harrisony> andrew_: then ./ghamachi
[07:34] <zgerrz> can someone help me get a a usb flash drive to be recognized in my front usb ports instead of only the usb ports located on the back of my desktop tower?
[07:34] <mena> studio,ok
[07:35] <studio> mena: you may have to add some options right after the 'defaults' part under 'options' ...just do a little googling if you can't write to them
[07:35] <windswept> Falstius I am taking teh original initrd and then trying to add the drivers for this kernel. and then will pray that this works.
[07:35] <mena> studio, ok
[07:35] <Falstius> windswept: you're probably going to want to create a fresh initrd instead of modify an old one (you could do that, but it is trickier)
[07:35] <harrisony> andrew_: it work?
[07:36] <andrew_> harrisony: i dont get what to do
[07:36] <harrisony> ok in terminal
[07:36] <harrisony> chmod +x ghamachi
[07:36] <mena> studio, would You Give me the terminal order
[07:36] <andrew_> harrisony: cannot access, no such file or directory
[07:36] <andrew_> harrisony: dont i need to point it somewhere first?
[07:36] <mena> studion, to run etc/fstab as root
[07:37] <harrisony> oh yeah in the Ham directory
[07:37] <studio> mena: oh ok, this time you'll want to make a backup of your original fstab
[07:37] <mena> okay
[07:37] <andrew_> harrisony: i did it i think
[07:37] <studio> mena : so this >>> sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup
[07:37] <zgerrz> does anyone know how to get a a usb flash drive to be recognized in my front usb ports instead of only the usb ports located on the back of my desktop tower?
[07:37] <studio> mena: then >>>> sudo gedit /etc/fstab

[07:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rmdir - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:41] <harrisony> !rm
[07:41] <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

[07:43] <Knelix> harrisony: PPC.
[07:44] <andrew_> harrisony: wait, whats GTK +2 vs GTK + 1.2?????
[07:44] <Knelix> harrisony: It's an old iBook G3.
[07:44] <studio> mena: how'd it go?
[07:44] <harrisony> andrew_: GTK 2 is pretty gtk 1.2 is like xmms old and ugly
[07:44] <mena> studio, now this is working fine
[07:44] <andrew_> harrisony: maybe i should try 1.2
[07:44] <Knelix> !oldworld
[07:44] <ubotu> For installation on Old World PowerMacs see this URL https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OldWorldMacs

[07:46] <tyche> Anyone been using SVN on their Ubuntu server?
[07:46] <Knelix> Hmm.
[07:46] <mena> studio, okay

[07:50] <harrisony> Knelix: do you?
[07:50] <Knelix> And how the heck do I do that anyway?!!
[07:50] <Knelix> harrisony: I have no idea!
[07:51] <harrisony> !forum | Knelix
[07:51] <ubotu> Knelix: The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org
[07:51] <Knelix> The Mac OS installer is very automatter, thus I've never needed to handle these things.
[07:51] <harrisony> im sure there are some mac geeks there
[07:51] <Knelix> *automatic

[07:51] <Knelix> I was hoping to get this done tonight.
[07:52] <Knelix> It always take much longer than I expected with Linux..... !!!!!
[07:52] <xtian> anyone know how to paste text into a terminal without a middle mouse button?
[07:52] <harrisony> xtian: ctrl-alt-v
[07:52] <spitwise> shift+insert
[07:52] <renton> how do i make sure the ubuntu cd is in the apt-get source?
[07:52] <harrisony> *ctrl-shift-v
[07:52] <gouki> xtian, CTRL+C, CTRL+V ?
[07:52] <spitwise> heh
[07:52] <harrisony> renton: alternate or live cd
[07:53] <xtian> neither work
[07:53] <xtian> its emacs readline
[07:53] <renton> apt-cdrom install /cdrom/
[07:53] <renton> would do?
[07:53] <harrisony> hmm
[07:53] <xtian> oh
[07:53] <harrisony> renton: what type of cd is it the ubuntu live cd,ubuntu alternate or other
[07:53] <xtian> harrisony, nvm, ctrl-shift-V worked
[07:53] <xtian> harrisony, thanks a bunch
[07:54] <harrisony> RAWR I AM THE WINNER!
[07:54] <harrisony> xtian: any time
[07:54] <alibaba> linux is a bunch of bullshit
[07:54] <harrisony> alibaba: why? were all happy users here
[07:54] <alibaba> im so confused
[07:54] <harrisony> alibaba: whats confusing?
[07:54] <alibaba> installling files is so complicating
[07:55] <xtian> harrisony, why is it that ctrl-v doesnt work, is it because i am using emacs for a readline
[07:55] <alibaba> why cant they just make .exe just like windows
[07:55] <harrisony> xtian: dont know
[07:55] <gouki> alibaba, that doesn't make GNU/Linux bad, you just need to learn it
[07:55] <xtian> harrisony, oh well, thanks
[07:55] <harrisony> alibaba: sudo apt-get install firefox < is that hard to install firefox?????

[08:07] <NetVenture> Can some one direct me to a channel for debian packaging help
[08:07] <timfrost> !automatix | alibaba
[08:07] <ubotu> alibaba: 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
[08:07] <gouki> NetVenture, ##debian-mentors
[08:07] <gouki> NetVenture, I also recommend reading the documenation on debian.org
[08:07] <NetVenture> thanks gouki
[08:08] <alibaba> o ok thats reasurring

[08:09] <ubuntux> question: i have a .htaccess file to deny file listing (Order allow,deny).. but it doesnt work
[08:09] <ubuntux> deny from all
[08:11] <gouki> ubuntux, don't take this the wrong way, but this is not the channel for that kind of problem (make sure the .htaccess is on the same folder on which you want to deny listing)
[08:11] <alibaba> why is windows so easy and linux so hard?
[08:11] <ubuntux> gouki, it is in the folder i want to deny listing.. do i have to ask ik in #apache or something?
[08:11] <andrew_> alibaba: One word buddy....Free
[08:12] <alibaba> ah true
[08:12] <gouki> ubuntux, it would be better if you do. They will give better support
[08:12] <ubuntux> gouki, ah okay, but it should be an easy one for guys also over here

[08:26] <ndlovu> I'm installing bridge-utils to share my internet connection with the network. anything I need to be aware of or is it a good solution?

[08:28] <alibaba> andrew im trying to load captain ron dvd and its just giving me a black screen
[08:28] <alibaba> the dvd is spinning but its not appearing
[08:28] <mlalkaka> what program can i use in linux to determine my RAM's frequency and timings? i'm looking for something like cpu-z on windows?
yes i restart... but i don't want to make my ubuntu as a default japanese language, i just want my folder name to be display on japanese character not like this '????'  :)
[08:28] <mena> what is the deffrent between gnm and kdm
[08:29] <alibaba> it says new_face failed
[08:29] <alibaba> what does that mean?
[08:29] <elyon225> Could someone please help me with Amarok?  I need to get my system tray icon working.  Right now its just showing a floating icon on the desktop.
[08:30] <alibaba> theres to many audio packetes in the buffer
[08:30] <burepe> Is the server install the same as the desktop install?
[08:30] <ask_> Hi all! I just spent 2 hours trying to mount an Ipod Nano
[08:31] <timfrost> yakumo: I don't have an answer to that - NZ uses English, so I don't know how to deal with mixed languages
[08:31] <ask_> Somebody want to lend a hand?
[08:31] <ndlovu> can anyone tell me what the 'dhcp' does in 'iface br0 inet dhcp' (from /etc/network/interfaces)
ok thnks anyway
[08:32] <ndlovu> is bridge-utils the best way to share a connection or should I do some more research on masquerade?
[08:33] <timfrost> ndlovu: That tells the system that br0 is to get its configuration via DHCP (rather than being hard-coded)
[08:33] <Blario> I have a Vista DVD that edgy doesn't seem to be able to read
[08:33] <mlalkaka> mena: do you mean gdm? if so, then GDM is Gnome Display Manager, and KDM is the KDE Display Manager.
[08:33] <heapme> how can i make it so i can write to my windows/ntfs partition?
[08:33] <Blario> it's UDF (ISO-13346)
[08:33] <timfrost> !ntfs | heapme
[08:33] <ubotu> heapme: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:33] <vega-> ask_: mine worked out of the box, using amarok
[08:33] <burepe> Is there a server install option when installing from the cd?
[08:33] <Blario> when viewing it, i see one "readme.txt" that reads "This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system
[08:33] <Blario> that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification."
[08:34] <mena> okay thanks
[08:34] <elyon225> Could someone please help me with Amarok?  I need to get my system tray icon working.  Right now its just showing a floating icon on the desktop.
[08:34] <deepsa> oh i am in fiesty
[08:34] <mlalkaka> mena: although their names are associated to GNOME and KDE, both of them can be used with many different desktop environments and window managers
[08:34] <mena> how to switch bettewn them
[08:34] <ndlovu> timfrost, thanks - why would the bridge need an ip address itself? Isn't it just forwarding traffic from one ip (eth0) with another (eth1)?
[08:34] <mlalkaka> what program can i use in linux to determine my RAM's frequency and timings? i'm looking for something like cpu-z on windows?
[08:34] <Blario> secondly, do you guys actually trust ntfs-3g?
[08:35] <timfrost> ndlovu: are they in different networks? (check network masks)
[08:35] <mena> mlalkaka, bec i have ubuntu and i run the ubunt chrsitian edition installer

[08:37] <tonyyarusso> Hom3Boys: 'adduser'
[08:37] <Hom3Boys> only 1 or 2 allowed
[08:37] <Hom3Boys> ..
[08:37] <burepe> I just installed 6.10 and the resolution is really low. I had the older one on this comp and it was fine. What can I do to fix that?
[08:37] <ask_> hey vega-
[08:37] <Hom3Boys> !adduser
[08:37] <ask_> how did you do it?
[08:37] <ubotu> To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo
[08:38] <Blario> I have a Vista DVD that edgy doesn't seem to be able to read
 it's UDF (ISO-13346)
 when viewing it, i see one "readme.txt" that reads "This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system
 that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification."
[08:38] <Blario> (yeah, i had stated that before already)
[08:39] <deepsa> how do i get 1280x800 resolution the  screen resolution doesn't display more than 1024x768
[08:39] <ndlovu> timfrost, they're on two different networks - the one is a ppp connection ( inet addr:10.49.102.240  P-t-P:10.6.6.6  Mask:255.255.255.255), the other is a wireless connection on the local network (inet addr:192.168.10.126  Bcast:192.168.10.255  Mask:255.255.255.0)
[08:39] <vega-> ask_: dunno :( i just clicked connect or something like that from amarok and it just worked
[08:40] <kraut> moin
[08:40] <Blario> sooo.... has *anyone* here tried installing vista with wmware before?
[08:40] <vega-> ask_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto
[08:40] <ask_> hmm - do you know much about mounting
[08:40] <Blario> don't tell me i'm the first one trying this
[08:40] <ask_> thanks
[08:40] <ask_> I already read that
[08:41] <ask_> If I mount using pmount /dev/sda2 /media/ipod
[08:41] <ask_> I can see it, but not use it properly
[08:41] <mlalkaka> mena: type "which kdm" in a terminal. this will tell you the path of the kdm program.
[08:41] <vega-> ask_: not too much it seems, first time i heard of pmount :)
[08:41] <vega-> ask_: tried as root?
[08:41] <OpenStandards> installed onto the usb hard drive but how do you go about adding usb support to the kernel
[08:41] <ask_> hehe, me too today :)
[08:41] <mena> mlalkaka, OKAY I WILL
[08:41] <OpenStandards> i'm installing eedgy using alt installer
[08:41] <ask_> Hmm, will try and see. Cheers
[08:42] <timfrost> ndlovu: bridging won't work in that case.  You need to configure the PC that is in both networks to correctly route between them (and NAT the 192.168.x addresses in the process)
[08:43] <ask_> doesn't work...
[08:43] <mlalkaka> mena: then type "sudo gedit /etc/X11/default-display-manager" in a terminal. this will open the file /etc/X11/default-display-manager for editing. change the path of the display manager to the path outputted by the command `which kdm`.
[08:43] <ask_> Anyone here know a lot about mounting?
[08:43] <Balsamic_Chicken> i use kbfx background for panel bar, is there anway to make the panel bar background translucent?
[08:43] <ask_> I'm having trouble with my nano thingie
[08:43] <gouki> ask_: nano thingie?
[08:43] <ndlovu> timfrost, thanks, so should something along these lines do the trick? 'sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE'
[08:43] <ask_> Ipod nano :)
[08:44] <gouki> !ipod
[08:44] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto
[08:44] <ask_> I tried it
[08:44] <ask_> problem is, the ipod isnt detected
[08:44] <mlalkaka> what program can i use in linux to determine my RAM's frequency and timings? i'm looking for something like cpu-z on windows?
[08:44] <gouki> ask_: Are you using GTKPod?
[08:44] <ask_> I want the nice Icon and stuff on my desktop
[08:44] <ask_> Yes, I tried gtkpod
[08:44] <factorx> Every time I boot Windows my GRUB is unable to load on next reboot so I have to reinstall it to my MBR. :D Any ideas how I can prevent that (but deinstalling Windows)?
[08:44] <ndlovu> sudo sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward"
[08:44] <ask_> It looks like a mounting problem
[08:45] <ask_> I tried pmount /dev/sda2 /media/ipod
[08:45] <mena> mlalkaka, OKAY
[08:45] <ask_> and it shows up in gtkpod
[08:45] <timfrost> ndlovu: Po\robably.  I can't confirm, as my NAT is done by the ADSL modem, rather than a Linux router
[08:45] <ask_> but with errors
[08:45] <deepsa> i am not getting resolution i want what should i do
[08:45] <gouki> ask_: sorry, can't help you. never used an iPod

[09:37] <Amaranth> !lamp | psusi
[09:37] <ubotu> psusi: 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+)
[09:37] <sean_> alsa
[09:37] <aNi`> kporter apt-get clean
[09:37] <Amaranth> psusi: getting apache and php2 working literally only requires you to install one package (libapache2-mod-php5) and all it's dependencies (automatic)
[09:38] <sean_> !alsa
[09:38] <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

[10:07] <kporter> !ask is there an equivilent to service network restart?
[10:08] <kporter> I can find services app on ubuntu
[10:08] <twisties> I do believe you have to install packaged before you can use kde
[10:08] <tonyyarusso> kporter: Can you reword that?
[10:08] <vega-> kporter: you mean "/etc/init.d/networking restart" ?
[10:08] <mena> twisties, i do that after i had installed the ubuntu christian edition and i go to system and i opened the ubuntu chrsitian installer

[10:09] <mena> twisties, then i installed the kde
[10:09] <kporter> on redhat to restart your network adapters you use service network restart
[10:09] <twisties> mena: Oh, well thats where im lost sorry,
[10:09] <tonyyarusso> twisties: 'sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart'
[10:09] <tonyyarusso> twisties: Or just start if it's not running

[10:17] <tonyyarusso> Jordan_U_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion for instructions, but I think that's semi-binary, not real source.  mozdev has it, but you have to pretend you're helping develop to follow the links right

[10:18] <mena> tonyyarusso

[10:21] <mena> tonyyaruss, Friends Atfirst iam A boy
[10:21] <tonyyarusso> mena: Are you referring to the name of the device within /dev or the name of the mount point?
[10:21] <pwilson> lol, is that a person or a really smart context sensitive bot?
[10:21] <drew> >.< *his/her
[10:21] <pwilson> ubotu... ty
[10:21] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[10:21] <xmOD> smart bot :-)

[10:22] <user-land> Hello, i just applied the last 5 updates to Ubuntu 6.10 and the updater tells me to Restart. Do you know why and did it tell you the same ?
[10:22] <mena> tonyyarusso, if i change it the patition would mount or not
[10:23] <tonyyarusso> mena: Ah, okay.  So when you've gone and tried editing /etc/fstab, what di you try and what happened?

[10:23] <pwilson> Another question, after 2 days of configuring, I finally gotten radar to see my router, and for a very short period, I was connected, but it was VERY slow, now I can only connect when wired, and radar won't resolve the ip. any help here?
[10:23] <tonyyarusso> mena: Did you mkdir the place you want to change it to?
[10:23] <mena> tonyyarusso, /media/hda7 i removed the hda7 with wares
[10:23] <xmOD> try KWifi Manager
[10:23] <drew> user-land, everybody updates at different times, because were all running different programs.  yes, something has been updated since the initial release of 6.10 that requires a restart
[10:24] <asfalt> cypher1 google for "unoficial ubunty guide" there are two sections covering XGL and AIGLX, afaik XGL is already present in edgy
[10:24] <xmOD> install from Add/Remove
[10:24] <mena> tonyyarusso, then it didnt mount
[10:24] <tonyyarusso> mena: You tried to make it just /media?
[10:24] <mena>  tonyyarusso, yes like this
[10:24] <pwilson> my wireless card is eth1, and now it doesn't even show up as an option in the nm.
[10:25] <xmOD> gimme the output of Ifconfig in terminal

[10:25] <xmOD> please paste the out in pastebin
[10:25] <mena> tonyyarusso, when i change the media/hda7 to /media/Wares
[10:25] <xmOD> !pastebin | pwilson
[10:25] <ubotu> pwilson: 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)
[10:25] <tonyyarusso> mena: Does /media/Wares exist?
[10:25] <mena> tonyyarusso, it didt work
[10:25] <mena> no
[10:26] <user-land> i am speaking about the last 5 updates only, drew, including Thunderbird.
[10:26] <tonyyarusso> mena: You have to create that first.
[10:26] <pwilson> cool, thanks, working on that.
[10:26] <drew> user-land, np, and no, i do not know, but i think it was the kernel
[10:26] <mena> tonyyarusso, okay with you
[10:27] <user-land> drew, i did the last update less then a week ago, and i don't think the kernel has changed since then.
[10:27] <noiesmo> have a amd am2 3800+ wanna install ubuntu would it be better to install 32bit for apps/drivers than 64bit ubuntu and would there be a noticeable difference between 32bit and 64bit ubuntu?
[10:27] <prezes> jet tam kto? co pisze po polsku???/
[10:27] <prezes> hallo
[10:27] <pwilson> xmOD  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/531/
[10:28] <xmOD> not much difference is there noiesmo.. its easier to install 32bit
[10:28] <drew> user-land, no, nothing in the past week has required a restart on my machine
[10:28] <noiesmo> xmOD, thats what i was thinking :)
[10:28] <prezes> jestem tutaj nowa:(

[10:29] <pwilson> No, its not, I've stopped trying, I'm currently CAT5ed into my router.
[10:29] <xmOD> i presume eth0 is your wired connection?
[10:29] <pwilson> Yep.

[10:34] <pwilson> Working on that, I'll give you some background, first I tried to config with network manager, manually entered ssid, channel, ip, subnet, etc.  When I found myself totally lost, I utilized a dell driver that matched my card in a how to on ubuntu forum, after that, I installed radar, as NM made no sense to a winoob like me... radar picked it up, and for a while I had aconnection (at a speed that makes 300 baud look fast, but it only wo
[10:34] <pwilson> rked if I disabled WEP, so I disabled wep and changed the SSID of my router.  NM had my old SSID and RADAR had my new.  When I tried to enter the new info in NM, I lost the connection, the IP became unassociated, and I had to reboot, and be wired to connect... This is my book, I hope you've liked it.

[10:42] <FlipS> Any ideas?
[10:43] <jpiccolo> what do i have to do to see my cpu temp
[10:43] <deepsa> hi
[10:43] <xmOD> u messed with it, FlisS.. din u?
[10:43] <pwilson> XmOD, yes.
[10:43] <pwilson> xmOD you have pm
[10:43] <drew> mena, i would try to either logout and log back in (you may need to change your "session" option to gnome), or reboot
[10:43] <xmOD> pwilson: i din get any pm's from you
[10:43] <FlipS> xmod: messed how?
[10:44] <drew> after installing those programs of course (make sure you "apply" them)
[10:44] <mena> drew, ok
[10:44] <xmOD> messed with system files
[10:44] <pwilson> xmOD lol, Alright, I guess pm lost my messages.
[10:44] <xmOD> try using synaptic or add/remove.. they do the same funstions
[10:44] <xmOD> *functions
[10:44] <davmor2> ozzyloy:  try this I find it really useful https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam
[10:44] <drew> deepsa: hello.
[10:44] <deepsa> hello
[10:44] <ozzloy> davmor2: thanks
[10:45] <pwilson> xmOD Downloading kwifi now.
[10:45] <fiandre> Hi. i'm trying to use minicom. in the configuration menu the serial device results as /dev/tt8 . how can y verify if this is correct? I mean: how can i verify which exact /dev/ttxx corresponds to the attched modem? thnks
[10:46] <pwilson> xmOD Any idea why it was so slow when it DID work?
[10:46] <xmOD> pwilson: go to networking from administration till then and then double click on your card and see if enable this connection box is marked
[10:46] <xmOD> wat were u downloading pwilson?
[10:46] <pwilson> kwifi
[10:47] <pwilson> xmOD
[10:47] <whimsical> Is there any way or need to safely disconnect a usb drive in Ubuntu or is that just a Windows thing?  Can I just remove the cable?
[10:47] <xmOD> no i mean were u downloading anything from the repositories when the network was detected?
[10:47] <whimsical> oh nevermind
[10:47] <pwilson> xmOD No.
[10:47] <whimsical> i just found eject by right-clicking on the desktop icons.  i am so dumb.
[10:47] <xmOD> so the entire connection was slow? browsing etc?
[10:48] <pwilson> google.com google logo took about 3 seconds to load.
[10:48] <drew> whimsical: right click on the drive icon (if there is one), click unmount
[10:48] <asfalt> fiandre maybe you can see this in device manager (System, Administration, Device Manager) or you can try talking to your modem from terminal ie ; "echo atdt 123456 > /dev/tt8" that will make the modem dial 123456
[10:48] <xmOD> u might have to change ur DNS
[10:48] <pwilson> I didn't do any pings to see if everything was slow, just browsing, most sites timed out.
[10:48] <mortici> hello all how do i disable a module from autoloading, and how do i set a permanent chmod setting for a /dev
[10:48] <xmOD> it also depends on the wifi strength
[10:48] <pwilson> xmOD, I was right next to my router ~10 feet.
[10:49] <xmOD> hmm... then i guess a change of DNS should do the trick
[10:49] <xmOD> check for alternate DNS servers
[10:49] <xmOD> !chmod | mortici
[10:49] <ubotu> mortici: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[10:50] <ozzloy> davmor2: i don't see what's so useful about that page.  it looks like mainly just listing what people tested and what worked/didn't work
[10:50] <ozzloy> davmor2: am i missing it?
[10:50] <pwilson> so, in system>admin>network my wireless card is enabled, and I've manually filled in the info, but, I cannot select the card (eth1) in the NM when I double click the NM icon by the clock.
[10:50] <crimsun> ozzloy: amixer set 'Off-hook' off && amixer set 'Caller ID' off
[10:50] <fiandre> asfalt: i don't have a "device manager" (i use kubuntu)
[10:50] <mortici> i know how to chmod
[10:50] <asfalt> pwilson is this nm-applet or the standard network monitor
[10:50] <xmOD> was NM installed by default ?
[10:51] <asfalt> fiandre ahh sorry not familiar with kde
[10:51] <mortici> but how do i make it permanent, (thing is the module makes a /dev/sonypi when its loaded...)
[10:51] <pwilson> xmOD, I'm sorry, but I don't know the difference.
[10:51] <davmor2> if you click on what ever laptop you have if it is listed after the tick boxes on what worked it tends to give work rounds if any are needed
[10:51] <asfalt> pwilson try apt-get install gnome-network-manager
[10:51] <harp> ls
[10:52] <pwilson> xmOD, I've got two identical icons (two monitors, one in front of the other) next to my clock.
[10:52] <pwilson> one says wired network connection, the other says network connection eth0 when I mouse over.
[10:53] <pwilson> asfalt, I've already done that.
[10:53] <crimsun> ozzloy: what's the result of that one-line command in the Terminal?
[10:53] <asfalt> does that one see any wifi networks?
[10:53] <pwilson> the only thing that sees my router is RADAR.
[10:53] <ozzloy> crimsun: http://rafb.net/p/uWFGaL66.html
[10:54] <asfalt> and when you run in terminal "iwconfig" do you see your eth1/wifi card?
[10:54] <xmod_> sorry got DC
[10:54] <xmod_> so any luck pwilson?
[10:54] <crimsun> ozzloy: right, and after ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav'' ?
[10:54] <pwilson> I was waiting on you, lol
[10:54] <fiandre> asfalt: thanks. your secon tip worked
[10:54] <fiandre> asfalt: thanks. your second tip worked
[10:54] <pwilson> I'll repeat.
[10:54] <asfalt> pwilson try typing over the eth0 and replace it with eth1
[10:54] <mortici> would it be possible to make a udev rule, for when the module is called to load, it creates a /dev/sonypi, can i make a udev rule to set a certain permission for that module?
[10:54] <asfalt> fiandre great
[10:54] <pwilson> xmOD, I've got two identical icons (two monitors, one in front of the other) next to my clock.
[10:55] <pwilson> one says wired network connection, the other says network connection eth0 when I mouse over.
[10:55] <ozzloy> crimsun: no sound still
[10:55] <xmod_> pwilson: that sound okay
[10:55] <xmod_> wat about progress on Kwifi?
[10:56] <pwilson> kwifi is installed, it sees my network, but when I click switch to network, nothing happens.
[10:56] <mortici> xmod_, knetworkmanager rules :)
[10:57] <xmod_> wat about clicking on scan for network? and also remove all maunal config you did for eth1
[10:57] <cmt^^> how do I change the resolution for my tv-out?
[10:58] <pwilson> HOLY CRAP, ITS WORKING!
[10:58] <crimsun> ozzloy: kill $(lsof -t /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*) && sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
[10:58] <pwilson> I connected in radar, maually typed eth1 into NM and used manual settings.
[10:59] <xmod_> good to hear pwilson!
[10:59] <xmod_> congrats!
[10:59] <pwilson> I have a signal strength bar by the clock.
[10:59] <pwilson> I"M FREAKING OUT!
[10:59] <pwilson> lol
[10:59] <xmod_> lol
[10:59] <xmod_> glad to be of any help!
[10:59] <asfalt> that means you are connected no? ;)
[10:59] <xmod_> yeah hes connected alright!
[10:59] <xmod_> lol
[11:00] <asfalt> pwilson yeah that threw me too so i also manually typed it in in nm
[11:00] <asfalt> the very 1st time i used it
[11:00] <pwilson> I don't know, I'm going to unplug my physical connection, we will se what happens.
[11:00] <imbecile> hey whats that app that i can use to force quit other apps?
[11:00] <jlist> hi, can anyone tell me how i should pronounce "ubuntu"?
[11:00] <pwilson> wish my good linux juju.
[11:00] <das-q> wasn't there a way to save "bookmarks" for ssh? I thought so, but I just can't find a way
[11:00] <ozzloy> crimsun: sound!
[11:00] <asfalt> jlist click help, about ubuntu its in there
[11:00] <crimsun> jlist: oo-boon-too
[11:00] <xmod_> jlist: how is is gonna help you?
[11:01] <crimsun> ozzloy: now pastebin ``amixer'' again
[11:01] <xmod_> lol
[11:01] <asfalt> das-q thats a good question i was wondering the same myself, thinking theonly solution was to save keys for hosts, but i would like some kind of bookmark functionality
[11:01] <NoEvidenZ> So what version is Feisty?
[11:01] <jlist> thanks crismsun
[11:01] <harp> jlist see video in home directory after installation
[11:01] <xmod_> !Feisty
[11:01] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[11:02] <das-q> asfalt: I'm sure I've read something about saving bookmarks for ssh, like "ssh somebox"
[11:02] <pwilson_> YESSSSS!!!!
[11:02] <NoEvidenZ> xmod_: Thanks.
[11:02] <bowens> I was wondering, is there a repository specifically for kernels?
[11:02] <ozzloy> crimsun: http://rafb.net/p/Xa3Zwb65.html
[11:02] <xmod_> good to hear its working pwilson!
[11:02] <NoEvidenZ> What's the one after Feisty gonna be called? Grumpy Gorilla or something? :P
[11:02] <asfalt> das-q i see i see, i never ended up finding any app for it, i shall look again
[11:02] <pwilson_> I'm chatting over the air... its almost as good as the first time I surfer the net from my bathroom.
[11:02] <ozzloy> crimsun: thank you!
[11:02] <xmod_> lol
[11:02] <tonyyarusso> das-q, asfalt: You can add them to /etc/hosts
[11:02] <ozzloy> crimsun: now i get sound in my headphones and the laptop speakers at the same time
[11:03] <asfalt> the names seem to becoming increasingly frustrated, edgy, then feisty, then what? diabolical? ;)
[11:03] <pwilson_> Now to get my nvidia driver working, this puter is almost unusable without it.
[11:03] <xmod_> How about yogi bear!
[11:03] <xmod_> lol
[11:03] <pwilson_> scrolling is really jagged.
[11:03] <ozzloy> asfalt: it would have to start with a 'g'
[11:03] <tonyyarusso> asfalt: Nah, wrong direction in the alphabet
[11:03] <xmod_> !nvidia
[11:03] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:03] <pwilson_> lol, smart bot.
[11:04] <asfalt> tonyyserver yeah i see what you are saying but this would only give us a single word alias for the hosts, not really graphical bookmark functionality similiar to putty or other win terminal software
[11:05] <xmod_> reconnecting..
[11:06] <my_haz> Does anyone know how to make preview montage of a movie?
[11:06] <imbecile> hey whats that app that i can use to force quit other apps?
[11:06] <my_haz> Like if you were going to post to usenet/torrent for example
[11:06] <pwilson_> how do I find out which kernel I'm running?
[11:06] <my_haz> imbecile: kill
[11:06] <ozzloy> crimsun: any suggestion on getting the sound to be only headphones?
[11:06] <imbecile> my_haz,  thanks
[11:06] <ozzloy> pwilson_: uname -a
[11:07] <my_haz> imbecile: if that doesn't work 'kill -KILL  $PID'  also there is `killall app-name`
[11:07] <pwilson_> ozzloy, ty
[11:08] <imbecile> my_haz, i thought there was a graphical app
[11:08] <iveqy> hi, I need the kernel headers for 2.6.17-10-generic where can I find a package with them?
[11:08] <crimsun> ozzloy: you need a newer version of alsa-driver (1.0.14rc1)
[11:08] <ozzloy> pwilson_: sure sure!
[11:08] <chupie> i'm trying to install ubuntu on my iMac.. it won't load X when i boot from the live cd, but is there a way i can start the installtion from the shell?
[11:09] <xmOD> !mac
[11:09] <imbecile> i have this stupid azureus error box stuck in the corner
[11:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:10] <d_v0id> hi wonder if anyone can help, i am trying to play radio stations in firefox, tryed mplayer and all the pluging , no joy, and totem a,d all pluging still nothing and real player, just cant get embed radio stations to work no matter what i try,
[11:10] <chupie> well... when i boot, it'll just hang.. but i do control-opt-F1 edit the xorg.conf then restart gnome.. but it gives me errors saying the settings daemon restarted too many times
[11:10] <imbecile> d_v0id,  try vlc player
[11:10] <xmOD> is there any internet speed optimizer for linux like windows has TCP/IP Optimizer?
[11:11] <asfalt> d_v0id the mplayer plugin should do it, however i noticed that when you ahve both installed ie totem-mozilla and mplayer the totem one takes precedence
[11:11] <asfalt> so in order to stream asf/wmv in web pages through the mplayer i had to remove the totem ff plugin
[11:11] <d_v0id> i got rid of them all now, and tryed instaling one or the other
[11:11] <d_v0id> weird thing is
[11:11] <roxlu> hi all!
[11:11] <d_v0id> koncurer works fine
[11:11] <asfalt> do you also have all the gstreamer codecs?
[11:11] <pwilson_> ack, how do I tell if I want restricted modules for x86/x86 64 or 386?
[11:12] <asfalt> hmm
[11:12] <d_v0id> i did have
[11:12] <xmOD> you need i386
[11:12] <d_v0id> but got rid of the lot as nothing was working
[11:12] <pwilson_> thanks, xmOD.
[11:12] <roxlu> i've created a tar.gz file with directories in it like: /a/b/c, /a/b/d, /a/b/e.... now I want to extract all directories starting from /a/b/ ... is this possible? (so the /a/b/ is not extracted) ?
[11:12] <d_v0id> konqurer using xine works fine
[11:12] <asfalt> d_v0id hmmm which radio site?
[11:12] <xmOD> is there any internet speed optimizer for linux like windows has TCP/IP Optimizer
[11:12] <asfalt> i can try it in ff with mplayer plugin and see if it works for me
[11:12] <d_v0id> its just one i embed to myspace
[11:13] <asfalt> ahh ok
[11:13] <asfalt> i don't visit any myspace so don't know which page would have sound and which not
[11:13] <asfalt> i am curious to test it out myself now anyway
[11:13] <ozzloy> crimsun: i have downloaded the one from alsa-project.org, will it be ok to just install from source?
[11:13] <d_v0id> www.myspace.com/kidd75
[11:14] <xmOD> is there any internet speed optimizer for linux like windows has TCP/IP Optimizer
[11:15] <chupie> is there a way i can just boot to a shell instead of having the live cd try to load gnome?
[11:15] <d_v0id> it's really got me puzzled i am pulling my hair out here lol
[11:15] <crimsun> ozzloy: that's fine
[11:15] <pwilson_> holy crap, those nvidia drivers are BLOATED.
[11:15] <xmOD> lol
[11:16] <asfalt> d_v0id it doesnt work in ff with the mplayer plugin, it actually tries to load then goes to "stopped"
[11:16] <mneptok> xmOD: since Linux's TCP/IP stack implementation isn't a pile of walrus dung such things are not necessary
[11:16] <d_v0id> ya thats what i got to
[11:16] <asfalt> and pressing play makes it try to reconnect but it once again returns to stopped
[11:16] <xmOD> but my net connection is really slow!
[11:16] <ozzloy> crimsun: thank you for your help i'm out
[11:16] <d_v0id> yup
[11:16] <d_v0id> same here
[11:16] <asfalt> i seen this happen on another site that has embedded vid (local newspaper)
[11:16] <pwilson_> 50 megs of driver?  Suck it nvidia.
[11:16] <asfalt> and no idea how to fix
[11:16] <xmOD> lol
[11:17] <xmOD> i am gettin 3000 bytes/sec whereas i should get 900 kbps
[11:17] <d_v0id> but in konqurer works fine, but i dont browse with that really
[11:17] <harrisony> chupie: try boot and at grub menu press esc and then choose rescue mode that gives a root terminal
[11:17] <xmOD> so i really need a way to set it right
[11:17] <mneptok> d_v0id: what is the video format?
[11:17] <asfalt> d_v0id i don't even have KDE so no alternative i guess
[11:17] <pwilson_> On a more general note, how hard is wine to get working correctly, ans is it a complicated program.
[11:17] <xmOD> !wine
[11:17] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:17] <d_v0id> its a radio station, got flash and vids working fine
[11:17] <shinobi2> is mklibs the same as libssh?
[11:17] <pwilson_> !wine?
[11:17] <ubotu> wine: Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.22-0ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 9001 kB, installed size 42452 kB
[11:17] <pwilson_> lol
[11:18] <shinobi2> i search for libssh and synaptic returns mklibs
[11:18] <harrisony> !wine | pwilson_
[11:18] <ubotu> pwilson_: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:18] <pwilson_> I know what it is, I just wan't to know how well it works.
[11:18] <harrisony> http://appdb.winehq.org
[11:18] <harrisony> :D
[11:18] <xmOD> it works okay
[11:18] <xmOD> i tried it
[11:18] <xmOD> dont use much though
[11:18] <xmOD> u can install it
[11:18] <harrisony> pwilson_: http://appdb.winehq.org
[11:18] <pwilson_> I hear I can actually use win XP .dlls to make it work better.
[11:19] <harrisony> yes
[11:20] <pwilson_> synaptics really get the priority of bandwidth, doesn't it.
[11:20] <harrisony> pwilson_: Not always
[11:20] <asfalt> d_v0id hmm now i am bothered that it doesn't work here either hehe not that i look at myspace and usually if a page has music i turn it off right away, but i want this to work in ff damnit hehe
[11:20] <mwe> it's not up to synaptic to decide
[11:21] <d_v0id> try konqurer and it works with xine
[11:21] <pwilson_> I'm sick of M$, worried about vista DRM issues, thats why I'm switching to linux, I really need to be able to run CS2 and flash professional, and would like to be able to run alias, all in linux if possible, If I can do that, my hdd will never have a windows partition again.
[11:21] <xmOD> Ok gotta go now.. hope i helped enough peeople so god sends me to heaven..lol
[11:22] <pwilson_> xmOD, if god has ever been a sys admin at 3 am, then yes.
[11:22] <xmOD> how u runnnin CS2?
[11:22] <pwilson_> wine
[11:22] <xmOD> oh
[11:22] <pwilson_> hopefully.
[11:22] <xmOD> i thought linux version
[11:22] <pwilson_> they say it works.
[11:22] <pwilson_> Is there one?
[11:22] <mwe> thery is no linux version of CS2
[11:22] <xmOD> u a designer?
[11:23] <xmOD> there is ps for linux
[11:23] <xmOD> saw somewhere i remember
[11:24] <d_v0id> this radio things got me, konqurer on defalt ident radio not working then change to iexplorer ident and works fine bahh
[11:24] <pwilson_> xmOD, yepper.
[11:24] <xmOD> i have ubuntu and ciata on my comp right now.. but i neva used vista for more than an hour since installation cause i jus fell in love with ubuntu the moment i saw it

[11:25] <gebruiker_> what does bin/sh -e mean as shebag?
[11:26] <monzie> i have a bunch of *.mp4 videos which player do i use to play them?
[11:26] <mwe> gebruiker_: -e means exit if anything fails unless it's interactive
[11:26] <xmOD> vlc media player
[11:26] <asfalt> monzie VLC player will play them

[11:27] <h00t> can anyone point me to a tweak (speed up) guide to ubuntu or even linux
[11:27] <NoEvidenZ> What should I use to write an ISO to a cd?
[11:28] <xmOD> am gonna try to install ubuntu on my ps3.. right now i got gentoo loaded
[11:28] <asfalt> NoEvidenZ you can use GnomeBaker
[11:28] <mwe> NoEvidenZ: I use k3b
[11:28] <NoEvidenZ> Anyhting that comes installed with Dapper?
[11:28] <mwe> NoEvidenZ: or if you like CLI cdrecord
[11:28] <xmOD> Edgy comes with a cd/dvd creator
[11:29] <NoEvidenZ> Can you use it to make images though?
[11:29] <NoEvidenZ> write images*
[11:29] <mwe> yes
[11:29] <asfalt> xmOD do you know what it's called? the burning up which is preinstalled?
[11:29] <timbobsteve> hey all
[11:29] <Shocka311> I just switched my hard drives and nwo linux is on my slave hdb1 but it is still set to boot to hda1.  Evry time I boot my pc I have to manually go into setup and change the boot cmd to hdb1 and I can't get it to save.  anybody know how to change the boot cmd line and save it so hdb1 is default?
[11:29] <xmOD> its jus labeled as CD/DVD Creator in Places
[11:29] <mwe> most programs use cdrecord as backend and it's capable of burning iso files
[11:30] <asfalt> xmod oh i see i think i might have removed it when i installed gnome baker
[11:30] <xmOD> yeah maybe
[11:30] <timbobsteve> Shocka311: change the root option in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:31] <NoEvidenZ> SHould probably wait for it to download before I try to burn it, eh?
[11:32] <timbobsteve> does anyone have any experience with Xen? I want to know how to install fedora on a new domU.
[11:32] <mwe> Shocka311: you're not supposed to be able to save directly from the boot menu editer at boot time
[11:32] <chupie> so is there a way to start the ubuntu install from a command prompt???
[11:32] <Shocka311> timbobsteve: hwo do I edit it and save it then?
[11:32] <mwe> chupie: you need to boot some kind of install media
[11:33] <mwe> chupie: cd, dvd, usb stick, netboot or whatever
[11:33] <timbobsteve> Shocka311:  type "sudo nano /boot/grub/sources.lst" from a terminal. Go down to the boot options for the kernel you are booting and change the "root=" line to /dev/hdb1
[11:33] <h00t> can anyone point me to a tweak guide ... even for linux itself please
[11:33] <mwe> timbobsteve: isn't it menu.lst
[11:33] <chupie> well yeah, i have the live cd in now, and it has booted, i'm at a shell atm trying to get Xorg to work
[11:34] <timbobsteve> mwe: yes it is... didn't have a term on reference to check it though :P
[11:34] <Shocka311> timbobsteve: is nano a text editor?
[11:34] <mwe> timbobsteve: it is but the file is named menu.lst, not sources.lst ;)
[11:34] <mwe> Shocka311: ^^
[11:35] <Shocka311> what cmd is nano?
[11:35] <ttyfscker> does anyone here know where i can find an article that explains and shows a solution to firefox consuming cpu usage and memory usage when it has been open for a long time even when it has no tabs open and on a blank page.  seems like it just starts adding up all kinds of cpu% and mem% until the system becomes so slow you can barely use it.   i know i cant be the only one with this problem, i have had it on 3 diff linux boxes and even the windo
[11:35] <ttyfscker> ws boxes with firefox are doing the same thing.  anyone got any suggestions?
[11:35] <kane77> my firefox has just been updated and now when I open some pages it crashes... what can I do about it??
[11:35] <mwe> timbobsteve: obviously that was for Shocka311 ;)
[11:35] <mwe> Shocka311: what do you mean? type sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst in a terminal
[11:36] <contarc> kane77: same thing happened to me after updating.  after a healthy reboot, everything seemed fine.
[11:36] <contarc> :/
[11:36] <mwe> Shocka311: you probably want to create a backup of the file before changing it, though
[11:36] <kane77> contarc, oh well... I want to keep my uptime... (19 days so  far... ) :D
[11:37] <contarc> nice, uptime.  :)  maybe someone else has a better suggestion
[11:37] <Shocka311> mwe: how do I create a backup first?
[11:37] <mwe> what's up with this uptime obsession everyone seems to suffer from? ;)
[11:37] <kane77> contarc, I think I will restart... there was more stuff updated today that needs restart...
[11:37] <NoEvidenZ> Does anyone know what version's coming out after Feisty? Or have they not planned that far ahead?
[11:37] <NoEvidenZ> edgy
[11:37] <NoEvidenZ> !edgy
[11:37] <ubotu> Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft) is the latest version of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Edgy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades - Downloading: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - Release Notes: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseNotes
[11:38] <NoEvidenZ> !feisty
[11:38] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[11:38] <mwe> Shocka311: sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.bak
[11:38] <contarc> kane77: should work just fine afterwards. :D
[11:39] <DoppleGanger_> at least ubuntu will hold back a realease if its not ready
[11:39] <kane77> mwe, I'm trying to compare windows and ubuntu, how stable they would be after few days without restart... (no suprise my windowsXP frozen just about four times and was slow while ubuntu works fine for 19 days...)
[11:39] <mwe> I think they're loaded when they come up with the code names
[11:39] <mwe> kane77: heh
[11:40] <DoppleGanger_> winXP starts to become unstable after 36 hrs... if its a healthy install
[11:40] <asfalt> rubbish
[11:40] <mwe> kane77: doesn't windows want to install security updates and reboot every second day?
[11:40] <asfalt> i had seen xp run for months on a notebook
[11:40] <DoppleGanger_> rubbish?
[11:41] <noiesmo> trying to boot kubuntu on amd am2 3800+ and it gets to adding live users and just stops
[11:41] <asfalt> granted it wasn't doing much but serving a local samba share, nevertheless, it was up for months
[11:41] <DoppleGanger_> well anyway its not a windows discussion, sorry i brung that out
[11:41] <Shocka311> mwe: how do I navigate through this txt file without changing it.  do I just type the cmd that it lists at the bottom?
[11:41] <kane77> mwe, nah... it's like every first tuesday in month or so...
[11:42] <mwe> I wouldn't dare to go online with XP after a few months without security updates
[11:42] <DoppleGanger_> heheh
[11:42] <kane77> mwe, at work I found that I was working on a PC with windowsXP without SP2...
[11:42] <mwe> kane77: oh
[11:43] <kane77> mwe, but I dont care that much... it's not mine... ;)
[11:43] <DoppleGanger_> i dont care what u do,u can have sp5 and its still exploitable
[11:43] <mwe> kane77: well in that case ...
[11:44] <mwe> my xp install checks for updates everyday
[11:44] <asfalt> i am trying not to spend too much time getting attached to my edgy config, in march (when Feisty is out) i plan to install afresh anyway
[11:44] <kane77> mwe, and btw we had hard times every once in a while... as we found our computers being infected by LOTS of viruses and stuff... (they were sending spam e mails...)
[11:45] <mwe> kane77: yeah. that's annoying
[11:45] <DoppleGanger_> i keep xp around for gaming, and an occasional trip in here
[11:45] <kane77> but lately we persuaded our boss to switch server from windows to zenwalk...
[11:45] <mwe> DoppleGanger_: I keep it on the desktop PC for gaming as well

[11:47] <DoppleGanger_> ctrl+o
[11:47] <kyja> thx
[11:47] <mwe> Shocka311: ctrl-x it will ask if you want to save
[11:47] <DoppleGanger_> the ^ is just ctrl
[11:47] <mwe> Shocka311: or what DoppleGanger_ says to just save
[11:48] <Zaggynl> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/475654/focus=475824 <= Go Linus!
[11:52] <DoppleGanger_> anyway everyone have a good night/day... ill see ya around
[11:52] <kane77> bye
[11:52] <h_black> do i need to register somewhere before i ask a question?
[11:52] <mwe> Zaggynl: that's cool. maybe it will begin stopping the rigid developers to try hindering things like ndiswrapper.
[11:52] <Shocka311> mwe: its given me several cmd opts to save as "to files, mac format,dos format, append , prefix and backupfile"
[11:53] <Zaggynl> It sucks we are dependand on binary drivers :(
[11:53] <kouran> hello
[11:53] <Zaggynl> 'lo
[11:54] <Shocka311> mwe: to files?
[11:54] <kouran> anyone here familiar with getting nvidia proprietry drivers to work? seems like everyone is having problems..
[11:55] <adrdui> h_black: just ask your question, uboto will try to answer it
[11:55] <Shocka311> anyone? i just edited my /boot/grub menus, what command opt do I use to save?
[11:55] <Shocka311> in nano
[11:55] <kane77> h_black, no... although you should if you want to send PM
[11:56] <h_black> I installed ubuntu today and had difficulty getting onto the internet, i could access my router for a while (it seemed as soon as i put in DNS sevrver addresses) things started messing up and i could no longer get on the net
[11:56] <mwe> Shocka311: what exactly happens when you press ctrl-x? it comes up with that?
[11:57] <mwe> Zaggynl: it does suck indeed but at the same time I want a working system
[11:57] <kalyugi> ikonia
[11:57] <Zaggynl> mwe, true true
[11:57] <kalyugi> at does not work with ncurses
[11:57] <kalyugi> what you told me earlier today is simply incorrect
[11:57] <Shocka311> mwe: my options are "get help, cancel, to files, DOS format, mac format, Append, prefix, backup file
[11:58] <kalyugi> you could not have got at to work with any ncurses app
[11:58] <ttyfscker> does anyone here know where i can find an article that explains and shows a solution to firefox consuming cpu usage and memory usage when it has been open for a long time even when it has no tabs open and on a blank page.  seems like it just starts adding up all kinds of cpu% and mem% until the system becomes so slow you can barely use it.   i know i cant be the only one with this problem, i have had it on 3 diff linux boxes and even the windo
[11:58] <ttyfscker> ws boxes with firefox are doing the same thing.  anyone got any suggestions?
[11:58] <mwe> Zaggynl: to me biggest problem with binary drivers is they can cause sublte problems that are almost impossible to debug
[11:58] <sleepy745> anyone know how to get amarok to play mp4 songs?
[11:58] <kalyugi> i hope you aint a ubuntu chanel admin on this site
[11:58] <mwe> Shocka311: odd.
[11:58] <kalyugi> cuz thatl be a shame...let ppl know that you dont know an answer
[11:59] <h_black> hm, i might try back later, get my question ready..
[11:59] <kalyugi> instead of FRIGGING LYING
[11:59] <mwe> Shocka311: usually it just asks if you want to save before quitting
[11:59] <kalyugi> so just to inform you
[11:59] <kalyugi> i have come up with a bash script
[11:59] <Shocka311> mwe: thats a scarey answer when editing these kind of files :)
[11:59] <sean_> hey, how do i create shortcuts?
[11:59] <kalyugi> which will schedule  torrent downloads
[11:59] <kane77> Zaggynl, the point is kernel developers shouldnt restrict the kernel to load only GPL drivers... that's stupid... linux is about freedom of choice... just like linus said... they shouldnt distribute them with the kernel, but they should allow people to choose wheter they want to use binary or not
[11:59] <exceswater> hi all
[12:00] <mwe> Shocka311: well I don't use nano much. you could try an editor I'm more familiar with and I'll help you
[12:00] <kane77> hi
[12:00] <exceswater> can u people help me with an advice
[12:00] <exceswater>  ?
[12:00] <dark> hi guys I would like to know why I always to cold boot my system. Im running a tablet pc HP tc 4400 on Ubun. 6.10. If I dont dont cool boot, my keyboard is not responding. Thus, I can't even boot the bios....
[12:00] <Zaggynl> kane77, ah like that, well I do hope ubuntu will provide them onto the next release(s)
[12:00] <kalyugi> im uploading this to the forum so that you when you do get a chance you can have a look to see how its dine
[12:00] <mwe> Shocka311: a you running x window now?
[12:00] <Shocka311> mwe: if it helps the only ^opts are get help, cancel, and to file" the rest are an M comand.
[12:00] <Lynoure> exceswater: Not if it takes mindreading to get your question :)
[12:00] <exceswater> i have a problem installing mplayer
[12:00] <kalyugi> instead of lying through your ikonic aSS
[12:00] <exceswater> 10x
[12:00] <exceswater> :D
[12:00] <sean_> dark: if your keyboard is USB check that "usb legacy drivers" are enabled in the bios
[12:00] <exceswater> i managed to install mplayer
[12:00] <Lynoure> kalyugi: some manners, please.
[12:00] <mwe> Shocka311: oh. did you type sudo ?
[12:01] <smithveg> hmm.. somebody know where can i access my localhost folder in ubuntu?
[12:01] <mwe> Shocka311: sudo nano ...
[12:01] <kalyugi> this guy lied to me mate
[12:01] <dark> sean: its my tablet built in keyboard...
[12:01] <exceswater> with sudo apt-get install mplayer
[12:01] <kalyugi> just outright
[12:01] <Shocka311> mwe: yes
[12:01] <exceswater> and i have it now
[12:01] <exceswater> but i cannot see any movies
[12:01] <mwe> Shocka311: hmm. are you in X window?
[12:01] <exceswater> it seems like it;s about codecs
[12:01] <sean_> dark: maybe, but... still might not be enabled - that was the problem i had the other day when i installed ubuntu it's worth a shot
[12:01] <exceswater> but i don;t know how to install codecs
[12:01] <mwe> Shocka311: eg, gnome
[12:01] <Shocka311> mwe I think is might be to files but I'm not sure ehough to excut
[12:01] <asfalt> !codecs

[12:01] <dark> ohhh and anothe question, anybody knows how to set up cpu scaling on a merom cpu ?
[12:01] <dark> all right
[12:01] <dark> im gonna try it
[12:01] <kane77> Zaggynl, well I've been thinking about this... It would certainly lower the pressure on hardware manufacturers if major distribution decides that binary-only are good enough...
[12:01] <Shocka311> mwe: yes
[12:02] <smithveg> where is the apache htdocs folder hide?
[12:02] <mwe> Shocka311: try quitting nano and use gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst instead. it might be easier or tell you why it wont save if it wont
[12:02] <Zaggynl> kane77, I agree they should work together, if just the support/debugging would get better, binary or not
[12:02] <kane77> smithveg, you mean the folder where you store your webpage?
[12:03] <Shocka311> mwe: thats the txt editor I am more familiar with but I couldn't remember the cmd.
[12:03] <smithveg> i found it already...
[12:03] <smithveg> in the /var/www
[12:03] <kane77> Zaggynl, *if* they are to be distributed on feisty cd there should be warning and an option to not install them..
[12:04] <Zaggynl> Freedom of choice, naturally.
[12:04] <dark> sean : what I find strange is that when im doing a cold boot, everything works fine, but when im not doiing it , it is not working..., okey ill give it a try
[12:04] <dark> thanx for help
[12:04] <sleepy745> anyone know how to get amorok to play mp4 songs?
[12:04] <Zaggynl> !mp4

[12:04] <sean_> dark: i don't even know what you mean by cold boot i just know that's what worked for me ;)
[12:04] <Shocka311> mwe: this is better.
[12:04] <dark> sean : cold boot its when you take out the battery...
[12:04] <kane77> Zaggynl, I too am forced to use the nvidia drivers, because they're the only choice... :(
[12:05] <Lynoure> kane77, Zaggynl: committing to binary-only is more work for the manufacturers than just releasing the specs.
[12:05] <dark> and you boot...
[12:05] <smithveg> kane77, that correct, in /var/www
[12:05] <Zaggynl> Lynoure, true that I guess, why won't they release the specs?
[12:05] <kane77> smithveg, yes...
[12:05] <smithveg> kane77, but i cannot copy the file into it. i do not have the root permission
[12:06] <kane77> smithveg, try "sudo chmod +rw /var/www/"
[12:06] <Lynoure> Zaggynl: Only good guess I have come up with is that they are afraid their hardware looks less special if they do that.
[12:06] <smithveg> kane77, i know that i can use the sudo in terminal to copy a file into it.... but i want to open this permission for permanent
[12:06] <Shocka311> mwe: there that should be it, let me reboot>
[12:06] <kalyugi>  Lynoure r u a channel admin
[12:07] <Lynoure> kalyugi: nope, how come?
[12:07] <kane77> smithveg, that was it... it changes the permission so that it would have both - read and write for user, group and others...
[12:07] <kalyugi> coz i wanted to make some admin aware of this ikonic guy
[12:07] <mneptok> kalyugi: what's the problem?
[12:07] <Lynoure> kalyugi: I would not recommend it, given your earlier comment. You'd draw attention to yourself too.
[12:07] <smithveg> kane77, thanks, it work, i sudo chmod 777 /var/www/
[12:08] <kalyugi>  but i had someone who lied to me mate
[12:08] <mena> Hope Yoy Are Write I Need To Rename My partitions But I cant ....Any Solution
[12:08] <smithveg> kane77, thanks you...
[12:08] <kane77> smithveg, it'd be enough to chmod to 666...
[12:08] <smithveg> kane77, ok... i change it to 666
[12:08] <kane77> smithveg, as you dont really need the execute permission...
[12:09] <smithveg> kane77, your names seems so familiar, are you a joomla member?
[12:09] <mena> Hi Friends Hope Yoy Are Write I Need To Rename My partitions But I cant ....Any Solution
[12:09] <kane77> smithveg, no... what is joomla?
[12:09] <NoEvidenZ> So if I right click on this ISO and select "write to disc" it should write it as the cd, not as a file on the cd, right?
[12:09] <mneptok> NoEvidenZ: correct
[12:10] <NoEvidenZ> Awesome.
[12:10] <NoEvidenZ> Time to take a shot at Feisty then.
[12:10] <smithveg> lzos...
[12:10] <kane77> smithveg, I see... no I'm not a joomla member...
[12:11] <smithveg> hmm....

[12:14] <Lynoure> mena: just write  man tune2fs  on a command line and you'll notice one of the options is for renaming a volume.

[12:24] <Lynoure> mena: man is one of the handiest commands there is, and if you cannot figure out which command to man, you can always try  apropos seachterm,  like apropos label
[12:24] <constrictor> smithveg: you will have to install it with synaptic
[12:24] <JosefK> fiandre, "aptitude search mysql"
[12:24] <JosefK> gah, sorry, ^ @smithveg
[12:25] <Shocka311> mneptok: it doens't say anything about the bootloader.
[12:26] <mena> Lynoure,ok
[12:26] <mneptok> Shocka311: it will tell you how to install grub, and how to secify a target
[12:26] <mneptok> *specify
[12:27] <jenda> Is there a font with the copyleft symbol available?
[12:28] <nikin> 
[12:29] <nikin> ''
[12:29] <Shocka311> mneptok: it says "grub-install [OPTION]  install_device
[12:29] <Shocka311> " so what would I type in the OPTION to reinstall the bootloader to MBR?

[12:36] <jenda> cypher1: #ubuntu-xgl might be worth a shot.

[12:43] <mimi> oi
[12:44] <SurfnKid> are you on high speed internet?
[12:44] <Peebo> Bitloks: What's it like
[12:44] <Shocka311> yes
[12:44] <SurfnKid> perhaps you can upgrade online
[12:44] <SurfnKid> instead of thru cd
[12:44] <SurfnKid> download the source files online instead
[12:44] <Bitloks> Peebo: not much on looks will see what the fuctionality is like.
[12:46] <Bitloks> I like the line under the last thing I typed to channel
[12:46] <Shocka311> I wanted to run the install program again so I can select the bootloader to install to the Master Boot Record cause I just installed Win on my other HD and I'm trying to get it to let me dual boot
[12:46] <Bitloks> Ok so it's not under the last thing I typed
[12:47] <NoEvidenZ> Any known problems with Feisty for amd64?

[12:51] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, is it a PC or laptop
[12:51] <Peebo> U from Aus Kid
[12:51] <SurfnKid> I mean desktop or laptop
[12:51] <Shocka311> surfnkid: PC
[12:51] <SurfnKid> Peebo, been there, im from the US
[12:52] <ubd> hello
[12:52] <mena> Lynoure, i had installed ubuntu christian edition and i open the ubuntu christian edition installer and i install ichtuhx and i switched to kdm how to go back to gnome
[12:52] <Bitloks> SurfnKid, And U know what cricket is..... well I neva  :)
[12:52] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, does your BIOS support external drive boot support
[12:52] <SurfnKid> Bitloks, yeah need some lessons on how to play and keep the score
[12:52] <ubd> i have a question about ports.
[12:52] <ozzloy> ekiga is able to display pictures from my webcam, but i don't know which /dev to use for mplayer, how do i find it?
[12:53] <SurfnKid> !ekiga
[12:53] <ubotu> ekiga: H.323 and SIP compatible VOIP client. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.3-0ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 3582 kB, installed size 12568 kB
[12:53] <Bitloks> Hey xchat has nickname completetion  kewl
[12:54] <Lynoure> mena: Sorry, I do not even know what ichtuhx is :(
[12:54] <bowens> Good morning my friends
[12:54] <ozzloy> er... what i mean is that i have ekiga, and that i am using it to display video from my webcam.  i'd like to use mplayer, but i have to specify the device in /dev/something
[12:54] <Peebo> Bitloks: Oo so do Gaim 8-)
[12:54] <Shocka311> surfnkid: yes, I installed windows by setting my cdrom to boot first but it just won't read the cd I made.
[12:54] <ozzloy> how do i find out which /dev/* ekiga is using?
[12:54] <bowens> is anybody familiar with k/networkmanager?
[12:54] <ubd> is it possible to connect port a of machine a via connecting to port b of machine b from machine c. (b machine opens a connection to port a of machine a)
[12:54] <mena> kde
[12:55] <mena> Lynoure, kde
[12:55] <mena> Lynoure, kubuntu
[12:55] <Bitloks> ubd: can you be a little more cryptic please  :)
[12:55] <SurfnKid> ozzloy, look at some config file on the ./ekiga folder
[12:55] <bowens> i have googled the error "No Network Device Found" though i am able to connect just find via console
[12:55] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, perhaps you could try an external boot device if your current cdrom isnt letting you boot
[12:55] <Lynoure> mena: usually you can switch to gnome by simply changing the default session to gnome. or uninstalling kdm and reistalling gdm, but that can leave you without graphical enviroment for a bit and you sound likee that could be a problem to you
[12:56] <bowens> i have googled the error but i can't anything that explains the problem
[12:56] <mena> Lynoure,okay i will try seathon
[12:56] <SurfnKid> !cdrom
[12:56] <Lynoure> But now I'm off for lunch for a bit
[12:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cdrom - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:56] <mena> Lynoure, brb
[12:56] <SurfnKid> !hdc
[12:56] <drayen> anyone else find that the beagle-helper keeps useing as much cpu as it can?
[12:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hdc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:57] <yevgeny> hi people
[12:57] <ubd> bitlock i want to configure a kind of proxy which allows me to connect port a of machine a but accepts connections only from port b
[12:57] <Shocka311> surfnkid I don't have one big enough to hold the edgy installation software, I only have a 2 gig flashdrive and it takes at least an 8.
[12:57] <yevgeny> are there people from ukraine on this channel?
[12:57] <levander> Is the Firefox extension Google Browser Sync causing anyone else problems?
[12:57] <Shocka311> surfnkid: it workeed for win though.
[12:58] <Peebo> ubd: there is port forwarding with iptables, firewall stuff rather than proxy
[12:58] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: i have no ./.ekiga
[12:58] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: or ./ekiga for that matter
[12:58] <ubd> peebo: is it opssible to forward port 88 to 99 for example?
[12:59] <yevgeny> are there people from ukraine on this channel?
[12:59] <Peebo> ubd: very
[12:59] <yevgeny> ???
[12:59] <SurfnKid> hmm
[12:59] <cafuego_> ubd: sure
[12:59] <ubd> wow
[12:59] <Peebo> ubd: I forward all port 80 traffic to port 8080
[12:59] <SurfnKid> ozzloy, not sure where it might be
[12:59] <mena> lynoure, it worked
[12:59] <mena> thanks
[12:59] <SurfnKid> maybe /usr/share/ekiga
[12:59] <Peebo> ubd: I use for a transparent proxy setup I have with squid
[01:00] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: nope
[01:00] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, did your CDROM ever work while in dapper?
[01:00] <had0c> Hello, i need some help
[01:00] <mena> lynoure, i will rebo the sytem need any thing
[01:00] <nextse7en> I totally fark my x server, can someone help?
[01:01] <Shocka311> surfnkid: yes it does
[01:01] <mena> brb
[01:01] <had0c> i have problems with installing my nvidia drivers, my screen turns all black when i start the pc after installing \\as told\\ on the wiki help site
[01:01] <SurfnKid> ozzloy, ./gconf/apps/ekiga
[01:01] <had0c> i\m on the boot cd now :)
[01:01] <nextse7en> I ran and enabled my nvidia driver, after that, I can't see anything but a black screen.
[01:01] <Peebo> ubd: I use command line configuration only, you wind up typeing line like this #iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -s $NET_INT -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8080
[01:01] <nextse7en> lol hadoc, we both did the same fuckup at the same time.
[01:02] <had0c> :D
[01:02] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, well i dont know what it could be, seems odd that it doesnt let you read it on boot, not surprised, my laptop did that a few times on a boot cd as well
[01:02] <had0c> wNvidia fx 5600
[01:02] <nextse7en> Is there a way to revert to the previos xserve config file?
[01:03] <Shocka311> sufrnkid: what a pain
[01:03] <twisties> nextse7en: What did you do to the file?
[01:03] <spasti> is ubuntu very very good?
[01:03] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, just keeep asking around when the masters come, or e-mail a specific CDROM developer or check the forums, wiki, and ubuntuforums and searrch the specific CDROM manuf to see if that problem has come up and solved
[01:03] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: thanks
[01:03] <nextse7en> I installed the nvidia driver, just like the wiki told me too.
[01:03] <had0c> me and nextse7en seem to have the same problem about installing the nvidia drivers
[01:03] <Mightily-Oats> spasti: umm.. opinions maybe biased here lol
[01:03] <Shocka311> surfnkid: thanks
[01:04] <SurfnKid> anytime :0
[01:04] <SurfnKid> :)
[01:04] <twisties> nextse7en: what distro are you using/
[01:04] <Bitloks> Peebs: I love ip tables dewd.
[01:04] <nextse7en> egdy
[01:04] <allme> i have a problem with installing ubuntu 6.06
[01:04] <nextse7en> edgy
[01:04] <salty-horse> is someone going to update the firefox-dom-inspector dependency to the new version of firefox?
[01:04] <allme> i have sata 2 hddz
[01:04] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: this looks like program settings, which widgets are set and stuff
[01:04] <Peebo> Bitloks: yeah you can anything with it. Firewalls are sooooo kewl
[01:05] <nextse7en> i386 edgy
 is it an nforce 4 board?
[01:05] <twisties> im using the same too. Did you check wether the fx5600 needs legacy or not? and wether or not you isntalled it?
[01:05] <allme> no
[01:05] <had0c> it does not need legacy
[01:05] <twisties> im not sure how old the card needs to be to use legacy...
[01:05] <allme> is a 965 chipset
[01:06] <JunK-Y> how can i fix this:
[01:06] <JunK-Y> oot@clea:/var/www# dpkg --list|grep php|grep mysql
[01:06] <twisties> there u go then
[01:06] <JunK-Y> ri  php5-mysql                     5.1.6-1ubuntu2.1        MySQL module for php5
[01:06] <JunK-Y> ri  php5-mysqli                    5.1.6-1ubuntu2.1        MySQL Improved module for php5
 rats.. there goes my first guess... what happens?
[01:06] <had0c> the fx 5600 does not need leg
[01:06] <SurfnKid> ozzloy, look up in a config file where the /dev is pointing to
[01:06] <JunK-Y> when im doing apt-get install php5-mysql
[01:06] <SurfnKid> see if it comes up anywhere
[01:06] <JunK-Y> im getting: php5-mysql is already the newest version.
[01:06] <allme> it does not seem to support my hardware
[01:06] <JunK-Y> i cant purge, since php5-mysqli depends on php5-mysql and mysql depends on php5-mysqli :|
[01:06] <twisties> When i installed my first nVidia driver 2 days ago i followed the wrong tut. It was for dapper when im using Edgy and didnt realise. Caused my gnome to freeze up
[01:07] <allme> it stops at booting kernel
[01:07] <twisties> and ccasionally i got the black screen
[01:07] <spasti> oh
[01:07] <had0c> Twistes how did you restore it?
[01:07] <twisties> check the tutorial link in topic name of #ubuntu-xgl
[01:07] <nextse7en> I can't get into x to save my life, everything is working, I can log in and stuff, I just can't see anything, screen is black.
[01:07] <twisties> i think it was in there
[01:08] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: i don't know what "a config file" to look in
[01:08] <Mightily-Oats> ok.. umm i had a problem with sata on an nforce 4 board.. maybe a simlar prob... try booting the installer with noapic nolapic
[01:08] <Bitloks> nextse7en, are you using a laptop ?
[01:08] <nextse7en> what did I do wrong here, I didn't think geforce 6150 go was legacy.
[01:08] <allme> i tried to boot with scsi
[01:08] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: all the ones under ~/.gconf/apps/ekiga/* don't seem to have it
[01:08] <nextse7en> Yes bitlocks.
[01:08] <allme> but no efect
[01:09] <Bitloks> nextse7en, plug an external monitor into the VGA connector
[01:09] <Mightily-Oats> yeah... try (having to think here.. not good at it yet lol) live noapic nolapic
[01:10] <nextse7en> You think that will work?
[01:10] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: grep -r "/dev" *   yeilds nothing
[01:10] <Bitloks> nextse7en, it do on mine.
[01:10] <SurfnKid> ozzloy, mmm
[01:10] <HS^> i like ubuntu, but fonts can be better
[01:10] <nextse7en> oh, what does noapic mean? I have to enter that in the kernal startup everytime I boot or my system locks.
[01:10] <SurfnKid> dunno, maybe in the help file ?
[01:10] <phiqtion> how can i reinstall GRUB ONLY without ubuntu installed from the live cd? thx
[01:11] <SurfnKid> itll point ya to the settings to get it from
[01:11] <spasti> ubuntu is orange .i don't like
[01:11] <dv_> I want my ubuntu in pretty pink, with hello kitty as splashscreen
[01:11] <Bitloks> nextse7en, means you may need a BIOS update, how old is the laptop, you may be able to enable it in your existing bios
[01:11] <twisties> spasti: Change the theme then
[01:11] <miaw> lol
[01:12] <Shocka311> how do I upgrade from edgy dapper to edgy from the website?
[01:12] <Gosha> !mysql
[01:12] <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+)
[01:12] <Shocka311> sorry from dapper to edgy
[01:12] <twisties> install Beryl! It makes gnome look sweeeeeeeeeeeet
[01:12] <nextse7en> bitlocks, the laptop is a month old, its a dreaded hp dv9000 17" model with the turion 64X2.... the bios is not unix friendly.
[01:12] <Gosha> !cache

[01:12] <phiqtion> how can i reinstall GRUB ONLY without ubuntu installed from the live cd? thx
[01:13] <nextse7en> The only thing I can change in the bios with this laptop is boot order, and the time/date, I wish I would have known that before I bought it.
[01:13] <afd_> hi! I've uninstalled edgy oo.org & install oo.org 2.1 from the converted rpms. How do I set the office documents to open by default with this new oo.org? They open (at least .docs) with AbiWord. I have already installed the desktop integration deb
[01:14] <mena> lynoure, hey friend
[01:14] <Bitloks> nextse7en, You can edit grub so the apic line is automatically done for you
[01:14] <mena> lynoure, What is the best anti-virus
[01:14] <Bitloks> nextse7en, have you tried the external monitor
[01:14] <EdgeT> Het guys, can anyonea please help me install ubuntu?
[01:14] <IceTox> an update of gnome will work by doing "sudo apt-get install gnome" right?
[01:14] <nextse7en> ty Bitlock, just so you are clear, my display was working until I followed the nvidia install wiki, now I'm fubar, you think an external disp will fix that?
[01:15] <matason> phiqtion: Google installing grub, there's a lot of forum posts that talk you through it
[01:15] <nextse7en> I didn't know if you knew all that.
[01:15] <phiqtion> can i install grub without having linux installed on the HD?
[01:15] <EdgeT> phiqtion, yeah
[01:16] <EdgeT> Guys, I think I have a bios problem or something
[01:16] <phiqtion> EdgeT: do you have a link for that? Or can you tell me some hints?
[01:16] <Bitloks> nextse7en, I have an MSI laptop with ATI X700 dedicated graphics when I boot Ubuntu live all I get is a black screen when X starts. For what ever reason X puts itself out on my external VGAand ignores the Inbuilt LCD
[01:16] <EdgeT> phiqtion Hmmmm
[01:16] <EdgeT> phiqtion Got an Ubuntu cd?
[01:16] <necrite> hi all
[01:16] <EdgeT> phiqtion I mean a bootable cd
[01:16] <phiqtion> EdgeT: yes
[01:17] <necrite> there is no "alsaconf" in ubuntu :S
[01:17] <ozzloy> SurfnKid: not quite in the help file either
[01:17] <Bitloks> nextse7en, Sounds very similar your issue
[01:17] <EdgeT> phiqtion Just a sec, I'mma go find the link
[01:17] <nextse7en> Bitlock, I'll give it a shot, I'll have to log out and reboot out of windows, I'll be back.
[01:17] <phiqtion> EdgeT: thank you
[01:17] <nextse7en> Thanks, by the way.
[01:17] <SurfnKid> ozzloy, try the website :)
[01:17] <EdgeT> phiqtion np
[01:17] <Bitloks> nextse7en, no worries mate
[01:18] <necrite> how do i setup my alsa sound card without alsaconf :S
[01:18] <Shamurai> ?
[01:18] <kporter> Can anyone recommend any good python web developing books?
[01:18] <EdgeT> phiqtion, Btw, why do ya wanna install grub?
[01:18] <necrite> Shamurai, that "?" was for me?
[01:19] <Bitloks> twisties, what is Beryl, what do it do mun
[01:19] <Shocka311> surfnkid: hey, how do I upgrade from dapper to edgy from the website?
[01:19] <phiqtion> EdgeT: i just installed Macosx86 and it overwrote my Windows boot, i need to select if i want Mac or Win
[01:19] <SurfnKid> !upgrade
[01:19] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:19] <EdgeT> Shocka311 I don't think you can dude, just change the software sources to edgy
[01:20] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, the notes perhaps could have some insight
[01:20] <EdgeT> phiqtion Oh, okies, I'm still lookin for it btw
[01:20] <SurfnKid> Im stayin on dapper
[01:20] <SurfnKid> :)
[01:20] <phiqtion> EdgeT: ok thx bro
[01:20] <Bitloks> !beryl
[01:20] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[01:21] <Shocka311> What are the benifits of edgy and dapper. should I even worry about upgrading and is it worth it?
[01:21] <IceTox> EdgeT: you can upgrade to edge.. just follow the notes that SurfnKid gave you. You need to add some sources for the edge packages, and than the updater in ubuntu will do the whole job for you ;)
[01:22] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, follow what IceTox just said :)
[01:22] <interfear> anyone here using E DR17?
[01:22] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, oh but you're trying to modify the boot sector right?
[01:22] <IceTox> Shocka311: I think the only thing about edge is that it has included a lot of new "unstable" packages in it's source.
[01:22] <gnomefreak> interfear: yes why?
[01:23] <EdgeT> IceTox I already did it a few months ago, tho, at that time, Edgy was way to unstable comparting to Dapper :p
[01:23] <interfear> gnomefreak: can I just install it via synaptic? or is there some special way I should go about it..
[01:23] <phiqtion> EdgeT: i have no free space on HD, i only have 3 partitions. Can the ubuntu live CD free up some space from those partitions if i decide to at least create a ext3 & swap?
[01:23] <gnomefreak> interfear: you need an e17 repo
[01:23] <Bitloks> 6.10 seems to work fine for me except for the flash player
[01:23] <IceTox> well, call me old fashion, I enjoy dapper EdgeT :-)
[01:23] <gnomefreak> interfear: hold on ill get you the site
[01:23] <interfear> gnomefreak:  thanks
[01:23] <Shocka311> surfnkid: well i would like to modify the bootloader do it gives me the option to dual boot but that is not real important.
[01:24] <necrite> anyone can helpme to find alsaconf or how can i setup my sound card
[01:24] <IceTox> Bitloks: you tried to download the flash player manually?
[01:24] <Shocka311> I think I'll just stay with dapper
[01:24] <nextse7en> well, that was, unfortunatly, an excercise in futility.
[01:24] <interfear> feels so good to be in linux again, for some reason my xorg.conf was using "nv" as the driver when i really needed the "vesa" driver instead to get into X and then install nvidia
[01:25] <nextse7en> Is there a way to reload the default xserve settings.
[01:25] <Bitloks> Oh yeah
[01:25] <SurfnKid> Shocka311, measure the pros and cons :)
[01:25] <EdgeT> IceTox Me too, that's why I reinstalled Dapper when I saw Edgy's unstability:p
[01:26] <nextse7en> Like a startup argument that will load a failsafe xserve.
[01:26] <nextse7en> !nvidia
[01:26] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:26] <Bitloks> IceTox, none of the documentation seems to work for 64Bit 6.10
[01:26] <Shocka311> but since im on thew topic, does anybody know how to change  the bootloader so it will give me the option to dualboot beforeit loads linux.
[01:26] <IceTox> well, it's more for special interested I believe EdgeT :-) If you wanna try out new things, try edge.. But you are in fact able to add whatever sources you want to the sources.list even though if you have dapper ;)
[01:26] <xmOD> shock3all.. wat are you trying to dualboot?
[01:27] <IdleOne> Shocka311: what do you mean the option to  dualboot?
[01:27] <gnomefreak> interfear: http://www.seerofsouls.com/ubuntu.html  has the repos and instructions
[01:27] <interfear> gnomefreak: thanks man
[01:27] <IceTox> oh, sorry mate.. I don't have any knowledge on 64bit Bitloks. You should try to follow the instructions given on adobe's websites though

[01:27] <assasukasse> hi everyone, how many GB are needed for ubuntu installation?
[01:27] <gnomefreak> assasukasse: about 3

[01:27] <nnacht> hi I have problem to use GRUB to load systems boot from a sataII hard disk, can anybody help?
[01:27] <EdgeT> IceTox, would you know why I'm unable to install the xubuntu version?
[01:27] <IceTox> depends really on what install you do.. if you wanna run just text-mode - it's less :-)
[01:28] <Bitloks> IceTox, Like I said none of the docs anywhere seem to apply to 6.10 64 bit even the 64bit docs.
[01:28] <assasukasse> gnomefreak i have one 3.2gb hdd and one 1.2gb hdd, how should i partition them in order to maximize the space
[01:28] <gnomefreak> assasukasse: that is the very least amount i think total just for install is 2.8gigs
[01:28] <IceTox> um.. depends on what error message you get EdgeT
[01:28] <EdgeT> IceTox, Actually, it doesn't properly install any of the 386 versions, I haven't tried the 64bit tho, (got a 64bit Turion)
[01:28] <gnomefreak> assasukasse: not sure never install it on anything that small
[01:29] <Bitloks> IceTox, I followed very clear instruction for nspluginwrapper and that didn't work either
[01:29] <nextse7en> Can anyone help me restore a default xserve config file, as I can currently use ubuntu at all after intalling nvidia drivers? Thanks.
[01:29] <Shocka311> idleone: I installed win on one  hd and linux on the other and I need to install the bootloader in the MBR si it'll give me the option to boot Win or Linux
[01:29] <IdleOne> !grub | Shocka311
[01:29] <ubotu> Shocka311: 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
[01:29] <xmOD> well shockall that should be simple
[01:29] <assasukasse> gnomefreak thanks anyway
[01:29] <nextse7en> Is that even the right thing to do/
[01:29] <nextse7en> ?
[01:29] <xmOD> did u have the win HDD disconnected when u installed linux?
[01:30] <IceTox> that sucks Bitloks... You could search the ubuntuforums for alternative solutions though.. It's likely that someone has already crossed that problem before you already
[01:30] <deepsa> my sound still doesn't work in ubuntu fiesty
[01:30] <xmOD> shocka3ll: did u have the win HDD disconnected when u installed linux?
[01:30] <nextse7en> xmOD, pwilson here, I could truly, madly, deeply use your help.
[01:30] <IceTox> EdgeT: try that 64bit if you ahve a 64bit ;)
[01:30] <interfear> gnomefreak: do i need to import hawkwinds and phillips key? or w/e that is? or just add the Edge sources?
[01:30] <deepsa> i have intel high defination audio
[01:30] <interfear> err Edgy
[01:30] <xmOD> well wats the prob?
[01:30] <nextse7en> Can anyone help me restore a default xserve config file, as I can currently use ubuntu at all after intalling nvidia drivers? Thanks.
[01:31] <Bitloks> IceTox, been looking mate, almost everythign refers todapper and there seems to have been a change between dapper and edgy
[01:31] <gnomefreak> interfear: just use the e17 repo and just hawkwinds key
[01:31] <nextse7en> I installed nvidia drivers according to the wiki, now my screen is black, and I can't do anything, is there a way to restore defaults.
[01:31] <EdgeT> IceTox, Thought bout that, tho, I don't know a damn thing bout chroot and about running 32 bits stuff on the 64 bits version (like the w32codecs:p)
[01:31] <gnomefreak> interfear: the contrib repo you really dont want to mess with
[01:31] <interfear> gnomefreak: cool thanks..
[01:31] <gnomefreak> yw
[01:31] <Bitloks> IceTox, I did have a flash player installed but it redrew so slow it made the whole PC run at snails pace.
[01:32] <salty-horse> hmm.. for some reason i can't find the firefox-dom-inspector v2.0.0.1 after apt-get update. i had to download it from packages.ubuntu.com
[01:32] <IceTox> strange thing Bitloks.. I can't say anything but "search google.com/linux".. Sorry mate :)
[01:32] <xmOD> wats ur nvidia card?
[01:32] <nextse7en> 6150 geforce go.
[01:32] <IceTox> hehe EdgeT :-) You learn while living ;)
[01:32] <nextse7en> in a 1 month old dv9000 laptop.
[01:32] <xmOD> did u install the drivers correctly? cause that should not happen
[01:32] <xmOD> i have nvidia myself on one of my boxes
[01:33] <xmOD> and ubuntu runs great with those drivers
[01:33] <IceTox> oh.. gnome updated.. see ya guys later.. time for a restart and a cup of coffee :-)
[01:33] <jpiccolo> anyone using conky on kde?
[01:33] <EdgeT> IceTox Yeah, tho the "chroot" link on the "version choice" page leads to some unposted page so ...
[01:33] <nextse7en> lol, I agree, but it did, it seems to be pushing some crazy resolution down my displays throught, and piping all info to the external vga jack, cause when I plugged in an external monitor, it told me that the res exceeded its capabilities, and thats a 30 inch lcd.
[01:33] <HuibertGill> nextse7en: in /etx/X11/xorg.conf change the entry for nvidia in the graphics adapter to nv or vesa
[01:34] <nextse7en> Ty huibert, how can I edit that file? How do I get to a command line from here.
[01:34] <xmOD> ok wilson
[01:34] <xmOD> see
[01:35] <xmOD> u cant see anything right?
[01:35] <interfear> gnomefreak: ok so now its installed, now i guess i should be able to chose the enlightenment window manager from the options menu on the login screen ? or do I have to do something else, I dont see any other instructions on the site
[01:35] <nextse7en> Right.
[01:35] <xmOD> u cant access ubuntu?
[01:35] <xmOD> ok
[01:35] <xmOD> u got a live cd
[01:35] <xmOD> ?
[01:35] <nextse7en> I cannot, I can here the startup sound, I can even log in, but I can't see what I'm doing.
[01:35] <nextse7en> I do have a live cd.
[01:35] <xmOD> ok boot from live cd and lemme know
[01:35] <interfear> i guess ill try and see what happens heh
[01:36] <break_> :D
[01:36] <nextse7en> But I can't edit files from the live cd.
[01:36] <IceTox> EdgeT: good luck with testing ;) I'll go grab a coffee ;)
[01:36] <fleischwurst> http://www.nvidia.com/page/home.html
[01:36] <fleischwurst> wtf?
[01:36] <fleischwurst> whats up with that page?
[01:36] <HuibertGill> nextse7en: afaik you have to reset, then in grub (before ubuntu boots) edit the boot line, add " init=1" to it, it will drop you in a root shel (recovery mode should work also, but I'm not sure)
[01:36] <fleischwurst> o0
[01:36] <break_> haha, nvidia's website is broken
[01:36] <xmOD> u can edit the files
[01:36] <xmOD> u'll see
[01:36] <break_> just google nvidia and find the page you need
[01:36] <nextse7en> then use vi to edit the file?
[01:37] <break_> i just had to find graphics drivers
[01:37] <xmOD> u gotta mount the linux partition through live cd
[01:37] <xmOD> then browse to xorg.conf
[01:37] <interfear> oh man enlightenment is so sweet
[01:37] <xmOD> and then edit via gedit
[01:37] <interfear> haha
[01:37] <interfear> uber
[01:37] <break_> how are the 64 bit versions of ubuntu?
[01:37] <interfear> ubuntu owns me
[01:37] <nextse7en> xmOD, that sounds easier.
[01:37] <xmOD> ok
[01:37] <xmOD> do it
[01:37] <interfear> break_:  i have a 64bit system but everyone advised me to use 32bit
[01:37] <xmOD> wait
[01:38] <nextse7en> hmm?
[01:38] <interfear> break_: flash/wine/etc
[01:38] <xmOD> sudo mkdir -p /mnt/linux

[01:38] <xmOD> this mounts the hard drive
[01:38] <nextse7en> k... I'll write that down, what dir is the .conf file in?
[01:39] <xmOD> if you mount it as /mnt/linux
[01:39] <break_> does wine work with the x64 version of ubuntu?
[01:39] <Bitloks> interfear, that's 6.10 64 bit, dapper seems to be OK
[01:39] <interfear> hrm.. my cpu is at 104 degrees F
[01:39] <interfear> is that bad
[01:39] <interfear> maybe this E cpu monitor is wrong
[01:39] <nextse7en> interfear, thats not to high.
[01:39] <interfear> ok
[01:39] <Bitloks> interfear, whats that in degree C
[01:39] <break_> ew
[01:39] <interfear> 40 C
[01:39] <break_> 40c, thats kind of high for idle
[01:39] <xmOD> the it should be at /mnt/linux/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:40] <Bitloks> interfear, that's normal, good infact
[01:40] <interfear> its an amd x2 4400 dual core

[01:40] <break_> CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4400+, 2.21 GHz, 1024 KB (0% Load)
[01:40] <nextse7en> depends on the cpu... lol... those later amd and intel chips before they went dual core went plenty hot.
[01:40] <interfear> nice
[01:40] <xmOD> use the commands i told you and mount the right HDD
[01:40] <interfear> you know what temp yours is?
[01:40] <break_> the Pentium D 8xx's were hot as hell
[01:40] <nextse7en> Thats a bit high for an X2
[01:40] <salty-horse> break_, not the package, since ubuntu/debian don't like using 32-bit libraries on 64-bit systems for reasons beyond me (ask others). but check this out: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185557
[01:40] <break_> ya, i'm idling at 25c right now

[01:42] <xmOD> nextse7en: do u know where ur linux is loaded?
[01:42] <Bitloks> It's fine, I will worry when it gets close to 70 C
[01:42] <break_> when i do a /list, i dont see ANYTHING
[01:42] <break_> what kind of processor do you have Bitloks?

[02:01] <xmOD> and are you running core 2 duo?
[02:01] <deepsa> xmOD: no dual core only
[02:01] <adaptr> ColinT: "printers own tool" - meaning a Windows tool, right ?
[02:02] <broedj1> ColinT: what model? maybe try the foomatic in apt-get
[02:02] <ColinT> adaptr: no no no
[02:02] <xmOD> thats ur prob maybe
[02:02] <deepsa> xmOD: wht?
[02:02] <xmOD> linux has some probs with core duos
[02:02] <xmOD> options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-eapd
[02:02] <xmOD> u added that?
[02:02] <deepsa> ya i did that
[02:02] <ColinT> adaptr: Want the HP,  tool. Just because it worked brilliantly and I know it
[02:02] <ColinT> broedjl: HP c920
[02:02] <Balsamic_Chicken>

[02:03] <ColinT> brodjl: Now it uses far too much ink..... and not as crisp as before
[02:03] <broedj1> deepsa: get to know the model try sndconfig or alsaconfig
[02:03] <xmOD> deepsa: sound onboard?
[02:03] <broedj1> deepsa : i mean discover
[02:03] <deepsa> xmOD: ya
[02:03] <broedj1> sndconfig is old i heard
[02:03] <asfalt> hello, i gyess maybe more of a gnome question but i have moved the clock applet out of the right hand side are of the panel and i cannot move it back, you now the area at the very right of the top panel separated by a line from the rest of the bar, been trying to alt and shift drag it to move it back to no avail
[02:03] <deepsa> broedj1: i don't have alsaconfig
[02:04] <broedj1> discover?
[02:04] <deepsa> discover?
[02:04] <cooltux> friends i tried to use the cmd 'convert' to create wallpaper to splashimage but it says that cmd not found what. may be the reason?
[02:04] <broedj1> apt-get install alsa-tools i think
[02:04] <broedj1> is a tool
[02:04] <xmOD> deepsa: dapper?
[02:04] <ColinT> adaptr: Sorry I have bad feelings for Microsoft... so just came over to this new thing. But I don't that much about computers
[02:04] <deepsa> xmOD: no edgy
[02:05] <ColinT> broedjl: sorry what did you mean with apt-get
[02:05] <\ing> is someone here?
[02:05] <broedj1> i mean type apt-get install synaptic
[02:05] <ColinT> broedjl: don't know that much about computers and it is a long time since I wrote commands in DOS
[02:06] <broedj1> then search for alsaconfig or "discover" in description and name
[02:06] <xmOD> deepsa: reload the module without additional params
[02:06] <deepsa> xmOD: modprobe -r snd-hda-intel and then modprobe snd-hda-intel ?
[02:06] <broedj1> ColinT: then copypaste it
[02:06] <Balsamic_Chicken> i like microsoft
[02:06] <xmOD> yeah should work
[02:06] <broedj1> to the terminal
[02:06] <Shocka311> if I am in /grub would (hd0,0) be (hd<device>,<partition>)?
[02:07] <xmOD> yes
[02:07] <broedj1> or just type/start synaptic
[02:07] <Shocka311> sweet
[02:07] <deepsa> xmOD: didn't worked
[02:07] <ColinT> broedjl: oh, but how do I find it in the first place. (Did I say I was blond)
[02:07] <broedj1> the rest does your hamster
[02:07] <xmOD> hmm...
[02:07] <Zesturian> How can I get a working wlanconfig with the madwifi-ng drivers already installed?
[02:07] <broedj1> hm, try ctrl-alt-f3
[02:07] <Zesturian> When I attempt to compile the drivers, neither master or monitor mode works.
[02:07] <xmOD> deepsa: see if you find anything here.. http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/bcollins/ubuntu-dapper.git;a=commitdiff;h=f939a127702d733ca9e87cbed300cf33b875c3b3;hp=9eb3ccc545428daf1bc741e6f08e5cd597e47dfc

[02:09] <jr> \
[02:10] <deepsa> lol core duos work great. i have used suse, gentoo, fedora and vlos
[02:10] <xmOD> i meant ubuntu edgy
[02:10] <broedj1> if you do that you will get to the shell, log in as root. then apt-get install synaptic or just synaptic. then try for sound tools discover or something
[02:10] <broedj1> i like it at least
[02:10] <xmOD> deepsa: wait for some time fot a guy names xtknight... he may be able to help

[02:15] <xmOD> torrent?
[02:15] <peija-kas> its noit like VLC
[02:15] <peija-kas> torrent and direct downloads
[02:15] <koregaonpark> BitTorrent.
[02:15] <xmOD> its not a torrent client
[02:15] <peija-kas> it is too
[02:15] <koregaonpark> Sure it is. ;-)
[02:15] <jrib> peija-kas: the democracy player site has instructions I believe
[02:15] <xmOD> oh i thought not
[02:15] <peija-kas> yeh, i used the howto on forums

[02:51] <kenthomson> Anyone willing to help me with, firefox?
[02:52] <asfalt> it just occurred to me i have left firefox running since last year on one of my machines ;)
[02:53] <asfalt> kenthomson can try, what's the problem?
[02:53] <Feldegast> asfalt it prolly need an update
[02:53] <kenthomson> asfalt,  HELP: can someone help me with firefox? I wish to listen to a radio station. I have got browser plugins of VLC, gxine, totem, mplayer, mozplugger installed. Now how do i tell firefox to use a particular plugin for radio/video, etc? I mean, how does firefox choose a plugin out of all the available ones, and how do i configure it to use other one?

[02:53] <pinchmesh> any areca 1210 users?
[02:53] <asfalt> kenthomson i am sorry, that was going to be my answer :|
[02:54] <jrib> kenthomson: that's the best way to do it (delete the ones you don't want).  If you "touch" a particular plugin though it seems to prefer those.  Why would you want plugins that you don't use though?
[02:55] <HuibertGill> kennyt: just use the xine plugin for allmost everything, execpt flash and java you rarely need anything else
[02:55] <asfalt> to delete any plugins, i don't know of a mechanism where one can control them, the only thing that comes to mind is the download actions but i don't think its related to plugins directly
[02:55] <HuibertGill> kennyt: sorry I menat the thomes dude, but he allready left..
[02:56] <asfalt> Feldegast yeah luckily that machine doesnt get really used for browsing, i am going to remove fedora from it and install ubuntu, loving it on my notebook so far
[02:57] <applet> hey hey hey
[02:57] <asfalt> however i have to say, i am still awaiting a bitchx package that does not have a hard dependency with mysql. apparently it follows a debian package and it is packaged with some bx plugin which uses sql
[02:57] <applet> can anyone tellme whats best to use to print cd covers from jpgs ?
[02:57] <asfalt> there is a bug report for it. but no one seems to care heh
[02:57] <applet> on ubuntu
[02:58] <applet> is there a gui app ?
[02:58] <asfalt> applet try sudo apt-cache search cd cover

[02:59] <axisme> phiqtion, i like that firefox plugin ftp client. It cant FXP though.....kftpgrabber can
[03:00] <applet> there must be a method of printing jewl case covers from jpgs is it a template or something ?

[03:00] <Alakazamz0r> Question. A user is trying to run a local program and open a file over samba. It says it cant find the file although it is browsable via the mapped drive in winxp. if the program is ran on the solaris box and X forwarded it can see the file.
[03:00] <BULLE> levander: ftp to ftp, used mainly by warez trading
[03:00] <levander> applet: that's kind of an obscure question about formatting and the such, why don't you ask on ubuntuforums?
[03:01] <Feldegast> Alakazamz0r permissions?
[03:01] <asfalt> would it be possible for me to modify the package and remove the sql dependency? i believe it is needed for a bx plugin which i do not intend to use. or would i basically have to compile bx myself anyway
[03:01] <Alakazamz0r> everything is owned by nobody.nobody with permissions of 777 Feldegast
[03:01] <jrib> asfalt: apt-get source package_name, make your edits, rebuild the package
[03:01] <Alakazamz0r> Feldegast, as i said... he can browse to the file in windows VIA the mapped drive.
[03:01] <asfalt> jrib i see i see thanks, i will investigate this

[03:02] <asfalt> great thanks guys, i am on it
[03:04] <kenthomson> can someone please help me with firefox?
[03:05] <kenthomson> HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[03:05] <IdleOne> kenthomson: yes use mozilla
[03:05] <Vlet> what about it?
[03:05] <jrib> !ask | kenthomson
[03:05] <ubotu> kenthomson: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:06] <Vlet> oh, he did up above
[03:06] <cypher1> i am getting so fed up with firefox that i am thinking of completely switching to opera
[03:06] <kenthomson> i have plugins for VLC, totem, gxine, mplayer, mozplugger installed in firefox. Now which is the one that it is going to use to play radio/video? And how can i change the plugin that it uses to play multimedia content? becuase internet radio doean't work :(
[03:06] <kenthomson> cyphase, thats non free software
[03:06] <kenthomson> cyphase, sorry that was not for you
[03:06] <cypher1> kenthomson: cant help.. firefox keeps crashing me
[03:06] <jrib> kenthomson: which plugin are you using?
[03:06] <dreamer> can anybody tell we the phpbb2 version in the dapper repo's ?
[03:06] <kenthomson> cypher1, that is non-free proprietary software jsut like WINDOWS
[03:07] <kenthomson> jrib, how would i know, i have all of them installed
[03:07] <jrib> kenthomson: visit about:plugins
[03:07] <kbrosnan> kenthomson: you have been acting like an whiny two year old and demanding help
[03:07] <kenthomson> jrib, in about:plugins i have VLC, mplayer, gxine, mplayer, mozplugger, etc (it was from here that i listen them, before also)
[03:07] <cypher1> kenthomson: i had been a fan of firefox but the way it is crashing on me is pathetic.. both 1.5 and 2.0 vesions
[03:07] <kenthomson> kbrosnan, thank you that helped me very much :(
[03:08] <jrib> kenthomson: which one for the filetype you are playing?  Better yet, just remove everything except one, I'd recommend mplayer
[03:08] <kbrosnan> kenthomson: I am not going to help you because of what you did in #firefox
[03:08] <kenthomson> kbrosnan, your choice, but other than not-helping you could help my by SHUTTING UP!!!!
[03:08] <stack_> Good morning everyone...
[03:08] <SubMOA> Morning.  Well, night here.
[03:08] <kenthomson> jrib, is there no way i can ask firefox to open a particular file, with a particular plugin?
[03:09] <gnomefreak> get rid of mozplugger
[03:09] <jrib> kenthomson: no, not that I know of.  Although I guess you can edit the plugins yourself if you really wanted to
[03:09] <kenthomson> gnomefreak, i use it to play shockwave, whats wrong with it?
[03:09] <SubMOA> there's kind of a stink when you convert .mp3 to .ogg, right?  It's better to rip into ogg?
[03:09] <levander> Is anyone else using Google Synch extension for Firefox?  It just stopped working about a week ago on my system for no reason.
[03:09] <kenthomson> SubMOA, yes
[03:09] <stack_> I have an Edgy box where my cron jobs aren't kicking off.  I've tried clearing and recreating the crontab, the server has been rebooted multiple times, but the job isn't going.  It used to work for about 2 months and stopped working about a month ago.  Any ideas?
[03:10] <gnomefreak> kenthomson: it causes crashes if your using ff2.0 atleast for alot of people it does
[03:10] <SubMOA> I heard you can get a program to help alleviate that, though, kenthomson
[03:10] <xmOD> does anybody know where the bookmarks file for firefox is stored?
[03:10] <gnomefreak> kenthomson: atleast thats a place to start.
[03:10] <gnomefreak> xmOD: ~/.mozilla
[03:10] <kenthomson> SubMOA, i too would like to know of that program, that doesn;t cause degradation when changing a file from .mp3 to .ogg, that would be a godsend gift
[03:10] <levander> stack_: "sudo /etc/init.d/cron start"
[03:11] <kenthomson> gnomefreak, you mean removing mozplugger would help me? But firefox doesn;t crash for me
[03:11] <SubMOA> kenthomson, I just heard-tell about it
[03:11] <SubMOA> to the GOOGLE MACHINE!
[03:11] <levander> stack_: make sure there's a script to start it off when the computer boots in your defaut run level
[03:11] <SubMOA> i'll let you know if I find something
[03:11] <levander> stack_: know what I mean when I say default run level?
[03:11] <kenthomson> gnomefreak, the problem that i am having is i want to configure firefox to use a certain plugin, how do i do that? As internet radio doesn;t play
[03:11] <kenthomson> SubMOA, that would be really nice :)
[03:12] <gnomefreak> kenthomson: sorry read cypher1 nstead of yours
[03:12] <stack_> levander: cron is already started
[03:12] <kenthomson> jrib, "which one for the filetype you are playing?" How do i know which plugin firefox uses by defualt for which filetype?
[03:12] <levander> stack_: well, cron is up and running
[03:12] <kenthomson> jrib, you know how to 'edit' the plugins to make some-plugin default?
[03:13] <jrib> kenthomson: about:plugins should list the filetype and the associated plugin.  "touch" the plugin to make firefox prefer it
[03:13] <levander> stack_: what about /var/log/syslog, any messages about cron?  just search that text file for the word "cron"
[03:13] <kenthomson> cypher1, if you don;t like firefox use conquerer or mozilla or anything else, but please don't switch to non-free proprietary Opera, its similar to switching to Windows. IF that is what you want, than install windows first and on it OPera :)
[03:14] <kenthomson> jrib, what is 'touch'? Hovering the mouse or clicking on the list doesn;t help?
[03:14] <jrib> kenthomson: touch is a command
[03:14] <Ubuntuguy> All -- how can I easily display my ubuntu update history?  I have my system set up to automatically apply security updates, some went in last night and I want to see what there are.
[03:14] <stack_> levander: only three lines for cron... the execution for the cron.daily and cron.hourly
[03:15] <xmOD> I din find the file gnomefreak
[03:15] <kenthomson> jrib, i don't know anything about it, can you please ask me how to use it
[03:15] <xmOD> can u gimme the exact path
[03:15] <xmOD> ?
[03:15] <jrib> kenthomson: sudo touch /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/foo
[03:15] <kenthomson> gnomefreak, i can;t understand what you are saying, could you please re-phrase it?
[03:15] <asfalt> ubuntuguy /var/log/dpkg
[03:15] <trainer> what is a good gnome frontend for finding/joining wireless networks?
[03:15] <stack_> levander: http://pastebin.ca/306470
[03:15] <Ubuntuguy> asfalt: thks
[03:15] <renton> how do i enable universe?
[03:15] <Lynoure> trainer: network-manager-gnome is quite nice, in my opinion
[03:16] <levander> stack_: that looks okay
[03:16] <pike_> trainer: ive heard people like wifi-radar.. never used it
[03:16] <xmOD> !repositories | renton
[03:16] <ubotu> renton: 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
[03:16] <Lynoure> renton: you uncomment the universe lines for /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:16] <stack_> levander: this would have run last night, so the logs might have rotated
[03:16] <renton> okay, easy. thanks
[03:16] <kenthomson> jrib, so that plugin name that i mention with "touch" is made default? And how do i check if firefox has really made it default or not?
[03:16] <Ubuntuguy> asfalt: So I see that dbus was updated, now how can I see a description of the changes?
[03:16] <levander> stack_: yeah, probably rotated
[03:16] <levander> stack_: cron is up and running on your system
[03:16] <levander> stack_: hold on
[03:16] <xmOD> gnomefreak: can u gimme the exact path
[03:16] <jrib> kenthomson: restart firefox and try playing the file
[03:17] <asfalt> ubuntuguy oh you mean changelog, not sure, sorry probably on the site
[03:17] <xmOD> gnomefreak: can u gimme the exact path
[03:17] <asfalt> my updates just rolled in then including dbus
[03:17] <kaktuspalme> hi
[03:17] <kaktuspalme> i'm setting up a ubuntu mail server
[03:17] <kaktuspalme> i've got problems with the mailserver
[03:18] <Ubuntuguy> asfalt: found it in /usr/share/doc/dbus
[03:18] <kaktuspalme> everytime i send a mail it comes this error
[03:18] <levander> stack_: do this command 'echo echo "Test cron" | at now' - just the stuff inside the ' marks
[03:18] <kaktuspalme> postfix/postdrop[20636] : warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory
[03:18] <stack_> levander: the old logs just show the running for the hourly, daily stuff...
[03:18] <stack_> levander: ok... here's my crontab for the user that isn't kicking off: http://pastebin.ca/306474
[03:18] <xmOD> gnomefreak: can u gimme the exact path
[03:19] <xmOD> where is the mozilla bookmarks file located?
[03:19] <kenthomson> jrib, there are so many mplayer plugins in that directory, how do i touch anyone one of them? or more precisely which one should i touch?
[03:19] <Lynoure> xmOD: ~/.mozilla/uniqueid/bookmarks.html , I think
[03:19] <jrib> xmOD: mozilla or firefox?
[03:19] <stack_> levander: http://pastebin.ca/306478  that's the command you just told me
[03:19] <xmOD> firefox
[03:19] <levander> stack_: actually, do you have a local mailbox on that machine?  if you don't, i don't know where the email output of that at job I just put up will go to
[03:19] <xmOD> the one thats preinstalled
[03:19] <asfalt> can using shutdown -h now from terminal instead of the button/gui cause unclean shutdowns of x? as in perhaps not all shutdown procedures are initiated ? sometimes i like to reboot or shutdown from the terminal but just wondered if this impacts x shutdown
[03:20] <jrib> xmOD: add /firefox/ after mozilla in what Lynoure said
[03:20] <stack_> levander: oh yeah... let me check my mail
[03:20] <bulmer> asfalt: it shutdowns immediately, no cleanups
[03:20] <kbrosnan> xmOD: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder#Firefox
[03:20] <stack_> levander: yeah I got the message in my mailbox
[03:20] <kenthomson>  jrib, there are so many mplayer plugins in that directory, how do i touch anyone one of them? or more precisely which one should i touch?
[03:20] <asfalt> bulmer right, so probably not the best way to shutdown then
[03:20] <levander> stack_: yeah, that's the right output for the test i sent you, an email should have been sent somewhere with the body "Test cron"
[03:20] <levander> stack_: cron is working fine
[03:20] <jrib> kenthomson: I just touch all of them, feel free to experiment
[03:21] <asraniel> HELP! is there anyone here that knows about how to recover data from a formated disc?
[03:21] <kenthomson> jrib, ok
[03:21] <asraniel> please!!!
[03:21] <levander> stack_: I wonder if it's that script you're running from cron, let me finish checking your crontab syntax
[03:21] <stack_> levander: the only thing that is different is that this cron job is for the backup user...
[03:21] <stack_> levander: if I run the command by hand, it runs fine
[03:21] <Lynoure> asraniel: Which filesystem was it?
[03:21] <kenthomson> jrib, and, also the ones with "mplayer*.xpt"?
[03:21] <asraniel> Lynoure: ext3 and FAT32
[03:21] <jrib> kenthomson: yes
[03:22] <asraniel> Lynoure: the partitions have been formated by qtparted just now, i dont know why because i wanted to delete another partition
[03:22] <bulmer> asfalt: normally noh, shutdown -h is like forcing the system to shutdown if one cant wait, and only done rarely cept for personal systems
[03:22] <levander> stack_: and, you're not getting any output email from that job?  I wonder if the email system is messed up?  Try sending an email to that MAILTO address from the command line.
[03:22] <asraniel> Lynoure: my girlfriend KILLS me if this data is lost
[03:22] <stack_> levander: that works fine... I've even looked through the postfix logs and nothing shows up that the job ran or failed
[03:22] <renton> wierd
[03:23] <asraniel> Lynoure: i mean realy kills me. is there any way to recover the data?
[03:23] <asfalt> bulmer thanks for explaining that, i suspected that may be the case but was not 100% sure, i will use the gui to shutdown instead
[03:23] <renton> enabled universe in edgy, but can't find azureus or anything.
[03:23] <kenthomson> jrib, ok let me try, in that directory i have 'mplayer' 'gxine' 'totem', which one do i use? And wheris the VLC plugin that i installed and that shows in about:plugins, but is not listed in that directory?
[03:23] <levander> stack_: maybe there's just no output from the job?
[03:23] <kenthomson> jrib, can you please explain me a little bit about the 'touch' command?
[03:23] <renton> guess nobody's made a package forit.
[03:23] <levander> stack_: no output = no email for a cron job
[03:23] <Feldegast> X|Rolando any luck?
[03:23] <kenthomson> asraniel, first of all put on your jogging shoes :)
[03:23] <Lynoure> asraniel: Next time backups. And now a bit patience. ext3 is tricky, fat32 easier, but the partitions being gone add to it.
[03:23] <stack_> levander: the cron job eventually kicks off an amanda backup, so I would get an email from that
[03:24] <asraniel> Lynoure: they are not gone
[03:24] <jrib> kenthomson: I use mplayer for everything;  dpkg -L package_name  will tell you where vlc got installed to; man touch  will give you information about touch, it just updates the timestamp
[03:24] <asraniel> Lynoure: just empty
[03:24] <levander> stack_: and, you know that the backup is not taking place? you've checked the backup media?
[03:24] <kenthomson> jrib, that helped a lot :)
[03:24] <Enselic``> Is it possible to 'trim' a video with ffmpeg?
[03:24] <Lynoure> asraniel: I assume you are not using those partitions now then... That's good
[03:24] <stack_> levander: yes.... no logs get created... it's a weekly job, so I only have logs from the manual kick offs
[03:25] <asraniel> Lynoure: wait 2 seconds, perhaps its not that bad as i thought and only a qtparted bug
[03:25] <kenthomson> jrib, and by updating the time-stamps, we can change the default plugins used by firefox right? and moreover how do i check whether the plugin i have touched HAS BEEN REALLY made defualt/preferred?
[03:25] <levander> stack_: have you checked to see if that ruby process is still running on the machine that is supposed to kick it off?  sometimes, if a cron program doesn't die, just hangs, it'll just run forever on the machine and not send an email
[03:25] <xmOD> jrib: i can go into the firefox dir from the terminal but i dont see any bookmarks.html file there
[03:25] <jrib> xmOD: tell me the exact path you are checking in
[03:26] <Feldegast> xmOD it should be in ~/
[03:26] <levander> stack_: it doesn't send an email because it doesn't output anything, it just hangs
[03:26] <stack_> levander: I just checked that... the job isn't running
[03:26] <Feldegast> ....somewhere in there
[03:26] <HuibertGill> !nvidia
[03:26] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:26] <levander> stack_: if you've rebooted since the last time that job was supposed to run via cron, it won't be running any more
[03:26] <jrib> kenthomson: like I said before, just restart firefox and try to play something
[03:26] <xmOD> jrib: /etc/firefox/profile
[03:26] <levander> stack_: you sure you haven't rebooted?
[03:26] <jrib> xmOD: ~/.mozilla/firefox/unique_id/bookmarks.html

[03:27] <dennis_> hi! where are ghostscript config files? i have to change for my printer, but i cannot find them...
[03:27] <kbrosnan> xmOD: in your home folder
[03:27] <levander> stack_: you could also test running the backup program under cron, via:
[03:27] <stack_> levander: it hasn't been rebooted for 21 days... this problem popped up before that
[03:27] <kbrosnan> xmOD: ctrl + h to show hidden files

[03:27] <deepsa> do ubuntu have gfxboot in grub?
[03:27] <deepsa> !gfxboot
[03:27] <ubotu> gfxboot: bootlogo creator for gfxboot compliant boot loaders. In component main, is optional. Version 3.2.23-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 72 kB, installed size 364 kB
[03:27] <xmOD> k lemme try
[03:27] <stack_> levander: ill try that
[03:27] <Lynoure> asraniel: If you have not approved the changes to be written on the disk, you should be fine. In general, do backup regularly, it's good for your lovelife :)
[03:27] <renton> Okay, packages.ubuntu.com says there is an azureus package in edgy, i have enabled universe but apt-get install azureus still says can't find package.
[03:27] <renton> any ideas?
[03:28] <levander> stack_: do you understand what that command i typed in does?  with the echo and the | (pipe)
[03:28] <deepsa> renton: do sudo apt-get update then do sudo apt-get install azureus
[03:28] <seshomaru123> hi, i believe my apt is broken .i get connection timed out on many packages. another symptom-the automatic updates show '7 days remaining'  as the download rate.help!
[03:28] <trainer> pike_, Lynoure, thanks
[03:28] <xmOD> jrib: DONE!
[03:28] <stack_> levander: ah ha!  running as the backup user: "You do not have permission to use at."
[03:28] <xmOD> thx
[03:28] <kenthomson> jrib, and is 'touching' the only way to make a plugin default? Then how do Windows user do it? :)
[03:29] <levander> stack_: so, cron is probably not even trying to run the crontab file since that user isn't set up to run cron
[03:29] <levander> not trying to run the crontab file for the user (who's not setup to run cron) - if i'm making any sense
[03:29] <jrib> kenthomson: there is no real way to make a plugin default that I know of.  You just install the one you want and don't install the ones you don't want.  This "touch"ing seems to work but it's not really the intended way I'm sure
[03:29] <stack_> levander: where can I change this?
[03:30] <levander> stack_: no idea, but you know what the problem is now, you're not stuck in middle of nowhere
[03:30] <renton> i did an apt-get update as well.
[03:30] <levander> stack_: i've done my job
[03:30] <renton> wierd. i'll do it again.
[03:30] <levander> stack_: good luck
[03:30] <stack_> levander: thanks
[03:30] <carld> How could I use sed to replace all text within the html title tag?
[03:30] <kenthomson> jrib, ok, does it 'seem' to work or it GODDAMN SURE works? And by the way, it touched 6 mplayer plugins, lets see what happens!
[03:30] <levander> stack_: i'd tell you if i knew...
[03:30] <jrib> kenthomson: wfm
[03:30] <kenthomson> jrib, ?
[03:30] <jrib> kenthomson: works for me
[03:31] <kenthomson> jrib, and do i need to delete some pluginreg.dat somewhere on the FS?
[03:31] <seshomaru123> can anyone help me with my apt problem? i get connection timed out on many packages (but not all...)
[03:31] <jrib> kenthomson: I don't
[03:31] <jrib> seshomaru123: tried a mirror?
[03:31] <SubMOA> check this out, kenthomson
[03:31] <SubMOA> http://freshmeat.net/projects/mp32ogg/
[03:31] <seshomaru123> jrib, how?
[03:31] <SubMOA> read the last comment on the comments
[03:31] <kenthomson> SubMOA, so you finally dug something up? :)
[03:32] <jrib> seshomaru123: in your /etc/apt/sources.list you may have  "us.archive.ubuntu.com", the "us" indicates that you are using mirrors for the United States.  Try a different country code (pick a close neighbor)
[03:32] <xmOD> renton: go to Add/Remove from the Applications menu and search for azureus
[03:32] <davef> d
[03:32] <xmOD> its there
[03:33] <SubMOA> kenthomson, sort of
[03:33] <seshomaru123> jrib, thanks - can i get a list of mirrors anywhere?
[03:33] <SubMOA> kenthomson, same problem, but this guy theorizes that if you use high quality MP3's, you can't tell the difference.
[03:33] <MehAdult> !optimize
[03:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about optimize - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:33] <Feldegast> if i run my already installed ubuntu under vmware will it break?
[03:33] <jrib> seshomaru123: should work with any two letter country code.  I assume it will just choose reasonable mirrors even if a country doesn't have servers
[03:34] <MehAdult> how can i make Ubuntu run faster/
[03:34] <kenthomson> SubMOA, but that should be applicable to simple programs that change mp3-->Ogg too! why use his script?
[03:34] <SubMOA> Also, I learned something about containers vs compression and will continue to read up until I understand, but I think you might be able to go to ogg flac, as opposed to ogg vorbis, and since flac is lossless, I wonder if you could somehow make that work
[03:34] <SubMOA> rgr that.
[03:34] <drcode> hi all
[03:34] <Feldegast> MehAdult disable unneeded processes
[03:34] <kenthomson> SubMOA, hm..
[03:34] <MehAdult> It seems to have slowed down the more I use it.
[03:34] <drcode> any one install fxruby under ubuntu?
[03:34] <drcode> need real big help
[03:34] <seshomaru123> jrib, thanks ,will this solve my updates problem? lately i can get any of the ubuntu updates - they hang for hours when i try to download them
[03:34] <SubMOA> kenthomson, it was just something I saw... not really pushing his script more than others, but that's where the info was.  Anyway, just some food for thought.
[03:35] <MehAdult> The only major thing I run is Folding at Home, which hasn't been a problem before
[03:35] <seshomaru123> jrib , i mean i CANT get any updates...
[03:35] <jrib> seshomaru123: I don't know.  I just noticed no one else had any ideas so I threw that out there
[03:35] <seshomaru123> jrib, thanks...
[03:35] <ar2k7> hi! how do i get realplayer firefox plugin to work? mplayer plugin takes over :/
[03:35] <Feldegast> MehAdult it might have downloaded a new more cpu intensive core
[03:35] <renton> okay i apt-get updated and it still can't find azureus.
[03:36] <jrib> renton: do you have universe?
[03:36] <MehAdult> Feldegast: It seems to be that it's slower even without FAH.
[03:36] <jrib> ar2k7: how did you install realplayer?
[03:36] <renton> jrib - yes
[03:36] <MehAdult> It takes 8 seconds to get firefox to load.
[03:36] <jasin> hi
[03:36] <ar2k7> jrib, from binary
[03:36] <ckebabo> .
[03:36] <xmOD> renton: then you should see the package in add/remove
[03:36] <kenthomson> SubMOA, so you mean to say converting .mp3--->.ogg, and using FLAC as the container over VORBIS, and that should not let drop in quality occur? But i think it is THE PROCESS of conversion from .mp3--->.ogg that deters the audio in quality as both are lossy formats
[03:36] <jasin> How you all doing?
[03:36] <renton> uncommented universe lines, apt-get updated, then apt-get install <anything interesting> gives me non found.
[03:36] <MehAdult> And I had to go back to 1.5 as Firefox2 was really laggy.
[03:36] <jasin> Happy Newyear
[03:36] <jrib> ar2k7: where did it get installed to?
[03:37] <jrib> renton: what version of ubuntu?
[03:37] <jasin> try swiftfox, its firefox but much faster
[03:37] <ar2k7> jrib, /opt/RealPlayer/
[03:37] <MehAdult> jasin: How?
[03:37] <jasin> http://getswiftfox.com/releases.htm
[03:37] <MehAdult> Nevermind
[03:37] <jasin> there is a .deb on that site there
[03:38] <jasin> Swiftfox is an optimized build of Mozilla Firefox. Swiftfox has builds for both AMD and Intel processors. The 2.0.0.1 release is based on Firefox 2.0.0.1.
[03:38] <jrib> ar2k7: I guess you need to symlink to the plugin in some plugin folder that firefox checks.  I would recommend just installing realplayer through a packaged deb instead
[03:38] <jrib> !realplayer | ar2k7
[03:38] <ubotu> ar2k7: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[03:38] <brice> bonjour
[03:38] <brice> j'ai un gros soucis
[03:38] <jrib> ar2k7: argh, there's a "RealPlayer" link that takes you to another page on the restricted wiki.  It has install instructions
[03:38] <SubMOA> kenthomson, ohh, yea I have no idea how that works, I just read something about how you can have flac as the compression on an ogg file, so i figured I'd read up on it.  As i'm reading here, I starting to think that wouldn't work
[03:38] <brice> je viens d'acheter un clavier / souris sans fil pour le boulot
[03:38] <ar2k7> jrib, thanks
[03:38] <jasin> opera is sometimes faster on linux then firefox.
[03:38] <mansu> hi all
[03:38] <brice> le clavier marche nickelm
[03:38] <jrib> !fr | brice
[03:38] <ubotu> brice: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[03:39] <brice> mais je n'arrive pas a faire marcher la souris
[03:39] <jasin> opera is worth trying also
[03:39] <kenthomson> SubMOA, could you please provide that links to all the you are reading?
[03:39] <brice> sorry
[03:39] <brice> i forget the -fr
[03:39] <brice> bye
[03:39] <kenthomson> jasin, please don't promote non0free software like Opera
[03:39] <SubMOA> sure
[03:39] <SubMOA> well
[03:39] <SubMOA> ok
[03:39] <kenthomson> jasin, that is a part of proprietary evil, and OPera has to go along with WIndows
[03:40] <MehAdult> holy crap swiftfox is faster
[03:40] <Lynoure> kenthomson: it's against channel policy?
[03:40] <MehAdult> only i couldn't find the deb, only the bz2
[03:40] <SubMOA> haha, sorry, i guess it's what I'm NOT reading that is giving me these ideas
[03:40] <kenthomson> Lynoure, I don't think it is, but it is against my conscience policy.
[03:40] <Lynoure> kenthomson: ah.
[03:40] <kenthomson> SubMOA, :), but you could provide the links anyways
[03:41] <SubMOA> true that
[03:41] <SubMOA> will do
[03:41] <SubMOA> uno momento
[03:41] <seshomaru123> jrib, it seems to be working . i changed the mirrors to japan and managed to download 2 packages i couldnt before . i hope it will solve my update problem....
[03:41] <jasin> kenthomson, if we wer enot going to use a browser because o fthat then we'd not be ussing any browser that exists
[03:41] <seshomaru123> thanks
[03:41] <kenthomson> jasin, what about firefox, konquere what wrong with that?
[03:42] <jasin> kenthomson, firefox was on windows before it ever was linux
[03:42] <kenthomson> jasin, i think one should atleast not get innocents get addicted to anymore proprietary software
[03:42] <SubMOA> kenthomson, ok, I went here and figured they would mention something about it if it was possible: http://flac.sourceforge.net/
[03:42] <SubMOA> it didn't
[03:42] <zholvex> hi
[03:42] <Franck-> Hi
[03:42] <Murky> hello all
[03:42] <kenthomson> jasin, thats not the question, the question is of OPen-source/free
[03:42] <kbrosnan> jasin: that realy is not true
[03:42] <kenthomson> SubMOA, never mind
[03:42] <jasin> kenthomson, I dont care for  konquere.

[03:43] <SubMOA> ok
[03:43] <kenthomson> SubMOA, all of them, and i am leaving if you could please make it fast
[03:43] <SubMOA> rgr
[03:43] <SubMOA> haven't read this yet, but here ya go: http://flac.sourceforge.net/ogg_mapping.html
[03:43] <jasin> swiftfox is firefox, its not proprietary, its  an omtimized build of firefox.
[03:44] <SubMOA> just found this also, not read: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t32646.html
[03:44] <kenthomson> jasin, swiftfox is proprietary software
[03:44] <SubMOA> this page apparently tells us it won't work: http://computing-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Ogg+FLAC kenthomson
[03:44] <jasin> kenthomson, not its not.
[03:44] <kenthomson> jasin, it is
[03:45] <kenthomson> jasin :)
[03:45] <n30n> Anyone mastered the art of wireless on ubuntu?
[03:45] <SubMOA> just trying to get an idea on container vs compression here, nothing to do with flac or ogg: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t46345.html
[03:45] <Franck-> nobody can help me please ? The tv out work but on the tv i just have a part of the screen
[03:45] <kenthomson> OK, goodbye! and happy Ubuntu-ing
[03:45] <jasin> kenthomson, swiftfox is not a broswers, firefox is the browser.
[03:45] <jasin> kenthomson, swiftfox is not a broswer, firefox is the browser.
[03:45] <kenthomson> n30n, you mean wireless networking ON ubuntu and NOT WIRLESS UBUNTU!
[03:45] <Franck-> Bye kenthomson
[03:46] <SubMOA> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Container_format_%28digital%29 same thing... trying to conceptualize containers
[03:46] <kenthomson> Franck-, sudden affection? bye anyways :)
[03:46] <SubMOA> and that's it for now
[03:46] <jasin> kenthomson, so are you saying firefox is not open source?
[03:46] <n30n> kenthomson: Yeah. That
[03:46] <kenthomson> jasin, using swift fox is using closed source software
[03:46] <Franck-> lol
[03:46] <jasin> kenthomson, yeah but swiftfox is not software its just a firefox compiled for specific cpus.
[03:47] <kenthomson> jasin, but the additional code they use is closed source
[03:47] <kenthomson> bye!
[03:47] <jasin> kenthomson, compiling firefox for a specific cpu is not additional code.
[03:47] <jasin> kenthomson, you clearly have no clue as to what swiftfox is.
[03:47] <jasin> kenthomson, get a life!

[03:57] <Ferret> pebcak tbh
[03:57] <crocz> Well I will just ask, I have just updated my system to Edgy, installed the new wine (through apt) and was hopeing for everything to work as wine shouldn't need any patches for World of Warcraft now.
[03:58] <jpiccolo> gilnim: are you monitoring temps?
[03:58] <gilnim> no?
[03:58] <jpiccolo> gilnim: ok
[03:58] <crocz> And it did, but then again .. not really :) hehe, I can start WoW but when I try to connect, it seems as if I don't have a connetcion
[03:58] <Ferret> kyja: That'll be jvm dependant, in all likelihood, check the page 'man java' and the docs in /usr/share/doc/whatever-your-jvm-is-called
[03:58] <crocz> connection*
[03:59] <pike_> jasin: /msg and train him :)
[03:59] <jasin> pike, what?

[04:00] <xmOD> damn!
[04:00] <xmOD> can anybody tell me how to run flv files?
[04:00] <jasin> iptables is not a full fledged firewall
[04:01] <xmOD> they play in flv player in windows but don know about linux
[04:01] <jasin> iptables needs to be configured for specific needs on most systems.
[04:02] <jasin> iptables is the name of the user space tool by which administrators create rules for the packet filtering and NAT modules.
[04:02] <jasin> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ip_tables
[04:02] <Ferret> That's pretty pedantic. ;p
[04:03] <jasin> you still have to create rules and Nat modules.
[04:03] <ROBOd> hello guys
[04:03] <Cholito> jasin: yeah, it might be. I can't install anything...
[04:03] <ROBOd> i have a new gigabit ethernet card
[04:04] <ROBOd> r8169. where can i check what speed it's configured to use?
[04:04] <ROBOd> i, of course, want 1000mbps
[04:04] <jasin> ubuntu comes with ip6 installed, the system usses ipv6. Iptables had to be rewritten to support ip6, ip6tables, and I don tthink its an offical implimentation but rather an administration tool.
[04:04] <awatson> is there anyone here?
[04:05] <awatson> i'm on bitchx..  can't get into X
[04:05] <Cholito> I can't install or remove any package(!!!)

[04:06] <allme> local apic not detected [04:06] <gilnim> !x
[04:06] <awatson> okay, but i'm not sure how to change it - what x.org or whatever x.conf file do i edit to change the default resolution and frequency?
[04:06] <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
[04:07] <mok> hello! how can i see how much free space is on one of my partitions in terminal mode?
[04:07] <awatson> ugh - that would help if i could read a website
[04:07] <Gun_Smoke> Do OpenOffice update come with apt-get upgrade?
[04:07] <pike_> awatson: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf   youll have to save changes and restart x server for it to read new config file and take effect to restart x alt-ctrl-bkspace
[04:07] <awatson> ahhh
[04:07] <gilnim> awatson: Your monitor probably can't show a picture with a solution of 1600*1200 and 85Hz
[04:07] <awatson> thanks pike!
[04:07] <jrib> mok: df -h
[04:07] <awatson> i'm using 75Hz
[04:07] <awatson> :/

[04:08] <xtimg> Hello; would anyone be able to point me at a guide to customizing a Ubuntu install CD.  I'd like to take the latest Ubuntu 6.06 install CD and integrate all the updates to packages it's got already and make it also install Sun's Java, the Flash player and the restricted formats packages.
[04:08] <domanna> hi. who here has ebook about adsl?
[04:08] <jasin> I use windows in windows
[04:08] <gilnim> awatson: so have you used the solution of 1600*1200 and 75Hz before?
[04:08] <jasin> lol
[04:08] <awatson> no, i haven't
[04:08] <awatson> i just got a new monitor
[04:09] <asraniel> Lynoure: are you still here? the data seems gone!! could you point me in a direction how to recover the data from a freshly formated FAT32 and ext3 partition?
[04:09] <awatson> tried 1600x1200 for the first time
[04:09] <jasin> If I really need windows that bad i'm not goign to emulate i'll install it to a separate partition and just boot it when need be with grub.
[04:09] <pike_> xtimg: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation  might have some info
[04:09] <gilnim> awatson: set the frequency down to 60Hz
[04:09] <awatson> at 75Hz, now can't get in
[04:09] <Ferret> !tell xtimg about customlivecdcustom
[04:09] <awatson> okay, i'll try that.
[04:09] <gilnim> oh ok
[04:09] <Ferret> !tell xtimg about customlivecd
[04:09] <Ferret> x.x
[04:09] <Ferret> I fail at keyboard
[04:10] <gilnim> awatson: so you see something with 75Hz?
[04:10] <awatson> do i change that in "Section MOnitor"
[04:10] <awatson> actually, yes
[04:10] <allme> local apic #0 not detected [04:10] <gilnim> yes
[04:10] <jasin> No virtualization software or emulation for me.
[04:10] <awatson> in "Section Monitor" i see it at 76 Hz
[04:10] <awatson> i'll bring it down to 60, save it, and restart X?
[04:10] <awatson> :)
[04:10] <gilnim> yes
[04:11] <asraniel> hi, i need HELP!!!! realy!!!!! how can i recover data from a formated FAT32 and ext3 partition? the partitions are still here, but empty. the ext3 partition is here but i can't mount it
[04:11] <Ferret> allme: Does it continue to boot after that, or does it fail?
[04:11] <allme> no
[04:11] <allme> it fails
[04:11] <gilnim> awatson: how high is the vertical refresh rate?
[04:12] <jasin> Recovery: http://linuxappfinder.com/backupandrecovery/recovery

[04:12] <awatson> here:
[04:12] <allme> i am trying ti install
[04:12] <awatson> VErtical refresh is 50-90
[04:12] <gilnim> :w if I'm right
[04:12] <belleke_> if i do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg the first i must select is  fglrx but i don't know what option i must pick in video bus card identitier

[04:12] <NoEvidenZ> When I log in to Feisty, it tells me there's updates ready for my computer. Then it says on the updating thing that it's Upgrading Ubuntu to version 6.10. Have I just screwwed up my install by downloading these upgrades, or is it just a typo?
[04:12] <awatson> jrib - will do after i fix this man :)

[04:13] <pike_> asraniel: have you tried fsck yet? im not sure i understand did you delete and then create a new parition table by accident or something
[04:13] <awatson> crap, still giving me out of range.
[04:13] <gilnim> !fuse
[04:13] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse

[04:15] <Ferret> gilnim: Most people seem to use ntfs-3g now, it's been tested a lot.
[04:15] <enyc> arcade: I dont know anything about Ubuntu 5.11 -- I dont think that exists
[04:15] <pike_> arcade: see ubotu's post above or just sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:15] <gilnim> Ferret: thanks
[04:15] <Ferret> gilnim: The 'number of partitions totally trashed then reported' has been relatively small, I mean. :)
[04:15] <arcade> enyc: 5.10 then :P
[04:15] <awatson> pike - i can't look at the URL..  i'm using bitchx..
[04:15] <awatson> it's gotta be something really simple
[04:15] <Ferret> gilnim: I'm using it on this system right now, for example.
[04:15] <awatson> where in xorg.conf do i change what i want my default resolution to be?
[04:16] <awatson> or, maybe i'll start in recovery mode..  does that give a normal resolution?
[04:16] <enyc> arcade: right... breezy
[04:16] <arcade> enyc: yes
[04:16] <xtimg> Ferret: thanks, that looks like exactly what I'd like; so, the manifest file tells the installer which packages to copy during installation?
[04:16] <gilnim> Ferret: I'm using ext3 on windows right now. :)
[04:16] <Ferret> gilnim: heh
[04:16] <enyc> arcade: use a console (i.e. ctrl+alt+F1) and 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[04:16] <pike_> awatson: sudo apt-get install links2   or lynx maybe :)  then lynx www.url.com to view in term.  basically you need the monitor manual or to google for your models settings
[04:16] <jasin> awatson, read the dam howto
[04:16] <gilnim> ext3 is much better than ntfs

[04:16] <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
[04:16] <Ferret> xtimg: I expect so, I haven't tried ubuntu's livecd generator yet; but that's how they tend to work
[04:16] <asraniel> pike_ thanks for helping. i just could repair the ext3 partition with fsck, qtparted killd it. but the fat32 is realy empty. qtparted formated it, i dont know why since i never told him so
[04:17] <Ferret> awatson: Look for a list of resolutions somewhere; the first one will be the screen resolution, for sanity purposes you should also make sure the first one is the biggest
[04:17] <asraniel> pike_ now i wonder if i can get the files back from the fat32 partition that qtparted killed
[04:17] <awatson> jason you seem to be missing my point - i have no web browser :)  I could apt-get install lynx.. but navigating to find the answer is 100 x more difficult than getting some asstiance from the community in my particular situation.  Be nice.
[04:18] <awatson> Ferret - ok :)
[04:18] <Ferret> awatson: I have this:  Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
[04:18] <jasin> awatson, go here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[04:18] <jasin> awatson, click on that link
[04:18] <awatson> jasin - you better be a bot; otherwise you are really really ignorant
[04:18] <pike_> asraniel: did the parition table change i mean the fat32 parition was it resized or anything? if not i would think recovery very possible
[04:18] <awatson> I AM NOT IN A GUI SO I CAN'T CLICK ON ANYTHING
[04:18] <awatson> heh
[04:18] <awatson> forget it.
[04:18] <CjN> awatson: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:18] <pike_> awatson: another option is just sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and selevt vesa driver
[04:19] <awatson> Ferret - i see those modes - how do i know which is the default?
[04:19] <pike_> select i mean
[04:19] <Ferret> awatson: install and run 'gpm' for text mode mouse support, and use links/elinks/lynx to browse in text mode.  It's surprisingly easy, honest. :)
[04:19] <suyuki> hello
[04:19] <n30n> I have a firmware file (.fw) and i need to move it to '/lib/fireware/
[04:19] <Ferret> awatson: It'll use the first one that works.
[04:19] <suyuki> <- newb could use some help
[04:20] <Nvening> Hi, does anyone know of a good mailing list reader as i find using mailing lists with gmail poor
[04:20] <Nvening> whats the prob suyuki?
[04:20] <n30n> how do i move  file to /lib/firmware/`uname -r`/
[04:20] <suyuki> the problem is I'm not sure what's the problem lol
[04:20] <Ferret> awatson: Note that X has a clever (also annoying) system for working out what resolutions are 'correct', you should check that link someone gave earlier if you're having problems getting X to use a *higher* resolution
[04:20] <suyuki> I've been trying to set up an internet connection
[04:20] <jasin> awatson, then how are you in here?
[04:20] <suyuki> read some howto's
[04:21] <suyuki> in any case, I need to install some packages
[04:21] <Aberry> anyone here a forum admin, I can't log in on my account :S
[04:21] <Aberry> on not just this pc either
[04:21] <suyuki> but I always get dependencies problems and have to reinstall the whole OS
[04:21] <Nvening> n30n sudo cp file-location moving-to-location
[04:21] <n30n> Nvening: sweet thanks
[04:21] <pike_> n30n: sudo mv file /lib/firmware/$(uname -r)/       cp or mv should work
[04:21] <allme> how do i solve my problem with installing ubuntu? i tried noapic nolapic and retuns me this error: local apic #0 not detected [04:22] <xmOD> !flv
[04:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:22] <Nvening> suyuki, packagae manager sorts out depandancys for you
[04:22] <jasin> awatson, you got an ati or nvdia graphics adapter?
[04:22] <Aberry> ! ubuntu forum admin
[04:22] <arcade> enyc / jasin / pike_ : Thanks a bunch.  Now running with 1600x1200 :-)
[04:22] <Nvening> does anyone know of a good mailing list reader as i find using mailing lists with gmail poor
[04:22] <n2diy> suyuki: install your packages with synaptic, that will take care of any dependencies.
[04:22] <Nvening> ???
[04:22] <Ferret> suyuki: Eeek.  Firstly, you shouldn't get dependency problems unless you're doing something weird like forcing apt/dpkg to install or remove things, or deleting random files on your system; and secondly issues like that should be fixable without a total reinstall. o.o
[04:22] <suyuki> maybe I'm getting corrupt packages
[04:23] <Aberry> !ubuntu forum admin
[04:23] <arcade> enyc / jasin / pike_ : This is _waaaay_ better :)  (got a new monitor today - and wanted to try it out immediately ;))
[04:23] <pike_> allme: you mean acpi ?
[04:23] <awatson> jasin - intel
[04:23] <brownr26> Hello all - quick question.  It is my understanding there should a "Disks" application under System->Administration.  I do not have that.  I did under Dapper but don't on Edgy.  How do I get that back?
[04:23] <Nvening> suyukia, dont install deb diles unless you have to, use synaptic
[04:23] <allme> i don-t know what it means
[04:23] <suyuki> ok
[04:23] <Ferret> Nvening: There are a whole bunch of decent text mode ones, although everyone I know (personally) just uses their mail client (sylpheed, mutt, pine, whatever)
[04:23] <allme> this is what it says
[04:23] <arcade> enyc / jasin / pike_ : What can I say?  Ubuntu has the best help ever! :)
[04:24] <Nvening> do mail clients have good readers built in then?
[04:24] <n2diy> brownr26: it is gone in 6.10, so much for an "upgrade" heh?
[04:24] <suyuki> it's just that whenever I try to compile anything, "make menuconfig" gives me a "first use in this function" error
[04:24] <awatson> okay, let me revise my situation.  I can't get into X because i have a new monitor and even though i put in 1600 x 1200 as my resolution and my monitor says it supports it, it isn't working.  WHere in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf do i adjust where the DEFAULT resolution is set?  :) :) :)
[04:25] <pike_> brownr26: i dont use gnome but you might need to install gparted (dont quote me on that though)
[04:25] <suyuki> what can cause this
[04:25] <elrohi1> pike_ : don't think so
[04:25] <Nvening> suyuki, what are you trying to install?? most programs should be installable using synaptic
[04:25] <jasin> awatson, try sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf change the resolution in there, it will be listed .. scroll down untill you find 1024x768 or whatever its set at, and change that to whatever you like
[04:25] <max__> how do i change the rights on the disks?
[04:25] <elrohi1> pike_ : but it will do the same thing
[04:25] <suyuki> xconfig tells me I have to install qt
[04:25] <brownr26> PIKE_ Are there any viable replacement for Disks?
[04:26] <suyuki> trying to install cxacru, drivers for my adsl usb modem
[04:26] <Ferret> brownr26: What are you actually trying to accomplish, out of interest?#
[04:26] <allme> how do i solve my problem with installing ubuntu? i tried noapic nolapic and retuns me this error: local apic #0 not detected [04:26] <suyuki> I just wanna have a working internet connection under linux dammit!!
[04:26] <brownr26> Ferret: I'd like a nice pie chart to show me how much disk space I have left
[04:26] <jasin> awatson, also, you can boot into safe graphics mode off tje ubuntu cd if you want to change things in a graphical enviroment.
[04:26] <suyuki> it gets frustrating, you should know lol
[04:26] <fredl> hi, I'm looking for volunteers to help me develop GLUE. Anybody who has experience with SOAP/PHP willing to help?
[04:26] <Shozen> Hi I am using OOo and I am trying to type in Arabic, thing is I got the support but what I need is the keyboard shortcut, in a Windows Machine you would click on Ctrl+Alt+Right Shift What should I do on Ubuntu?
[04:26] <jasin> awatson, also, you can boot into safe graphics mode off the ubuntu cd if you want to change things in a graphical enviroment.
[04:26] <Lynoure> asraniel: Sorry, you were silent so long I thought you were fine and dropped the results of my search. But you can prolly google yourself, I do not have any particular software I could stad behind anyway
[04:27] <CjN> allme: have you tried noapci ?
[04:27] <suyuki> I've followed some specific howto's for this but I always reach a dead end
[04:27] <Nvening> suyuki, what connection type do you have?
[04:27] <suyuki> adsl
[04:27] <suyuki> it's a conexant modem
[04:27] <suyuki> usb
[04:27] <Nvening> a modem or a router?
[04:27] <Nvening> right
[04:27] <Nvening> does ubuntu detect the modem?
[04:27] <jasin> awatson, if you want to fix teh resolution just restore your old xorg.conf file, look under /etc/X11/ for the old conf file
[04:27] <Ferret> suyuki: DOes the guide tell you to install kernel headers, and did you manage to do that?
[04:27] <elrohi1> brownr26: you could always try gdesklets.. they give you little things on the desktop, but it's better than nothing. gparted will also give you stuff about the hard drives
[04:27] <Feldegast> any way u can use ethernet? usb is the pits
[04:28] <suyuki> yea it shows on the device manager
[04:28] <QwertyM> suyuki, I got a Huawei ADSL modem, no luck with USB with me, so I got a LAN card and a cable and enjoyed the rest :p
[04:28] <suyuki> I haven't managed to do that Ferret
[04:28] <arquebus> shozen, there is a toolbar shortcut that lets you switch between keyboard layouts
[04:28] <jasin> awatson, just delte the xorg.conf file and rename the backup file, it will be in there under /etc/X11/
[04:28] <Nvening> i use a network cable so im not too sure tbh
[04:28] <awatson> good idea!
[04:28] <awatson> one sec.
[04:28] <Shozen> where is it?
[04:29] <Shozen> What is it under?
[04:29] <brownr26> Thanks for all the tips.  I really appreciate it.  I'll give gparted a try.  A bar graph is as good as a pie chart.  Know what I mean (wink, wink) (nudge, nudge)
[04:29] <Ferret> brownr26: Ahhh, I see.  Well, I don't use gnome, but try opening a terminal and typing "sudo gnome-" and press tab a time or two, and see if you've got this disk administration program installed but not in your tasks menu
[04:29] <suyuki> if I manage to install the linux headers I think I can follow the rest of the howto and make it
[04:29] <elrohi1> brownr26 : XD
[04:29] <awatson> you were actually on to what i was looking for in my initial answer
[04:29] <arquebus> shozen- Im trying to find it, its somewhere in system>preferences
[04:29] <awatson> i'm editing that file, i just cant tell which line would be the one where i'm setting the default resolution
[04:29] <awatson> once i have that, i'm all set.
[04:29] <suyuki> it isn't that complicated to do, I just keep getting tangled up in packages
[04:29] <elrohi1> ferret: nice one O.o
[04:29] <Shozen> ok will be here :)
[04:29] <awatson> Question:  Where in xorg.conf does one set what resoultion they want to use in X?!?!?!
[04:30] <suyuki> so I unpack the linux source to /usr/src, etc then when I do a make menuconfig I get that error: "first use in this function"
[04:30] <mitch> How can I disable the framebuffer for the native console (Alt+Ctrl+F2 from X)?
[04:30] <arquebus> shozen- right click on your toolbart and click "add to panel"
[04:31] <xtimg> Ferret: do those instructions work for the alternate (e.g. non-live-cd) too?
[04:31] <CjN> awatson: under section screen
[04:31] <Ferret> mitch: Do you mean make the framebuffer console into a normal traditional fast text console, or just disable the shortcut key that switches to it?
[04:31] <awatson> THANKS CjN!
[04:31] <Shozen> Okay then?
[04:31] <CjN> awatson: maybe set the color depth to something conservative - 16 ?
[04:31] <pike_> awatson: you will see at bottom of file there are several depth settings it goes highest to lowest for res  just change the default depth you want it to use like DefaultDepth 24   youd look at the depth 24 entry and change it
[04:32] <Ferret> xtimg: I'm not sure which instructions you're referring to... what do you mean by 'alternate'?
[04:32] <Shozen> Ok guess I got it, just like the Mac :D cool
[04:32] <awatson> i see many things listed under "modes" - how do i know which one is set to be the default one?  The first one listed?
[04:32] <arquebus> shozen- its there in that window, I cant remember what its called
[04:32] <Ferret> awatson: Probably.
[04:33] <varsendaggr> hello
[04:33] <Shozen> Thank you arquebus, you have been a lot of help :)
[04:33] <mitch> Ferret: switch to plain old text console
[04:33] <CjN> awatson: then go down to the line for 16 and just edit out some of the higher modes
[04:33] <arquebus> no probs
[04:33] <Shozen> COOL!!! 8-) Seeyahhh
[04:33] <xtimg> Ferret: the Live CD installer requires the computers to have at least 192 MB of RAM to start up and setup, etc. but the alternate install CD is more suited for OEM style installations and doesn't need anywhere near as much memory to run setup
[04:34] <suyuki> so, which packages do I actually need to compile a linux kernel?
[04:34] <pike_> awatson: and make sure the entry above the modes for defaultdepth is 16
[04:34] <jrib> !kernel | suyuki
[04:34] <gustavnilsson> does wpa2 works in ubuntu?
[04:34] <ubotu> suyuki: 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
[04:35] <allme> how do i solve my problem with installing ubuntu? i tried noapic nolapic and retuns me this error: local apic #0 not detected [04:35] <suyuki> ok let's see
[04:35] <CjN> awatson: yeah it defaults to the first mode (not to be confused with modeline).
[04:35] <awatson> i got it backed up!
[04:35] <awatson> er
[04:35] <awatson> back up
[04:35] <awatson> heh
[04:35] <pike_> awatson: congrats
[04:35] <awatson> it is in section screen > modes > first line determines default
[04:35] <Ferret> mitch: You need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst -- best way would be to copy the first uncommented entry (title           Ubuntu, kernel <someversion>) and make a new one with a different title, changing the kernel line to remove 'splash', 'quiet', and 'vga=*' stuff
[04:35] <awatson> THanks everyone.  :)
[04:35] <suyuki> oh ok, so I only need to install the linux headers
[04:36] <awatson> see you in a minute in regular xchat..  heh
[04:36] <Ferret> mitch: If you can go check that file out and see if you can manage, if that's not clear enough I can probably find some instructions online somewhere
[04:36] <suyuki> how would I do that
[04:36] <mitch> Ferret: I think that'll do. Thanks a lot
[04:36] <Ferret> allme: What happens immediately after that error?
[04:36] <Aberry> Please could someone tell me if they are an ubuntu.com admin or if they know how I can get hold of them other than through the forums?
[04:37] <mitch> Ferret: one more question: I have a graphic startup logo (the Edgy default one). Will the logo still work?
[04:37] <Ferret> Aberry: Maybe if you mention what kind of query you have, someone here can suggest the best method of getting hold of them?
[04:37] <nnacht> hi, how can I change the splash image while booting up?
[04:37] <Tom33> how can I find out what type of bios I have?
[04:37] <kritzstapf> hi, i accedently installed some mono-packages from debian-sources to my ubuntu-edgy, and now when i try to install the package "mono" again, there are some errors: http://phpfi.com/190698
[04:37] <nolimitsoya> !usplash | nnacht
[04:37] <ubotu> nnacht: usplash is the start-up splash (before the login screen appears) in Ubuntu. To customize it, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[04:38] <nnacht> ubotu: thanks a lot, I will check it
[04:38] <Ferret> mitch: I'm not 100% sure (I'm new to ubuntu, and some distros do that stuff with a mini version of X, most do it with framebuffer).
[04:38] <Ferret> mitch: I think it's likely you'll get absolutely no graphics at all until X starts
[04:38] <elrohi1> nnacht: and the one for grub is in the /boot/grub folder. It should be the only gzipped one
[04:39] <allme> ferret it stalls
[04:39] <Aberry> ferret: for some reason both on my home and work PCs I cannot log in to the forums, I go so far as the site thanking me for logging in, then it goes back to the previous screen with me logged out. It hasn't got anything to do with cookies as it's session IDs plus two PCs, which were both untouched from the day before (when they worked) have this problem. I'm not really sure how to get it working again as I can't contact anyone other than through here or v
[04:39] <mitch> Ferret: thanks. I'm trying to switch to normal text mode because i only get a violet screen when I switch from X to a text-console. Do you know what could be the reason for that?
[04:40] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Looks like you need to specifically uninstall the debian versions first, then install the proper versions
[04:40] <suyuki> so I have to compile the linux-headers from linux-source right
[04:40] <Aberry> mitch: I know GNU is good but you might find you get better results with the proprietary graphics drivers
[04:40] <allme> it says: bios bug local apic #0 not detected
[04:40] <mitch> Aberry: i use the ATI-drivers (from ATI)
[04:40] <Ferret> mitch: the ati and nvidia drivers have quite a few miscellaneous conflicts with FB console like that.  They don't affect many people, and because those drivers are closed-source no-one 'knows' how to fix it
[04:41] <Aberry> mitch: oh ok, then I dunno then :p
[04:41] <Ferret> mitch: If you're using built-in X drivers, maybe it's just that the FB is a resolution or refresh rate your monitor/gfx card doesn't like too much.  But it's weird it only goes that way coming out of X.  Maybe if you play around with the vga value in that menu.lst you can find a value that works better
[04:42] <mitch> Ferret: I'll try. Thanks again
[04:42] <Aberry> ferret: did you happen to know any admin?
[04:42] <Ferret> Aberry: That's links/elinks trying to be clever.  It notices that you've been to that page before and so uses its cache.  You can either press Control-r after logging in, or configure it not to be so clever
[04:42] <kritzstapf> Ferret, yes, but removing mono-common will cause apt to remove ubuntu-desktop and a lot of other packages
[04:42] <pike_> allme: see maybe the discussion https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/38263
[04:43] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Ahhh, I see, try your luck with apt-get install --reinstall mono
[04:43] <nnacht> elrohil: thanks, I cheked the site, but it is a little compliucated. All I want is to use the original splash image after I installed by mistake the edubuntu-splash-theme, do u know how to do it?
[04:43] <allme> pike: ok.. i-ll try
[04:43] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Also, if you can temporarily change the language to English, then me and some others can understand the error messages -- that would help. x.x
[04:43] <Aberry> im not sure it is as it happened in firefox as well as IE, and I hadnt used firefox to get to the page
[04:44] <kritzstapf> Ferret, how to change it temporarily? :)
[04:44] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Something like: sudo sh -c 'LANG=en_US apt-get install --reinstall mono'
[04:44] <Aberry> ferret, sorry Im on a work PC so Im not using firefox
[04:45] <Ferret> Aberry: Perhaps your workplace has an overenthusiatic caching system -- quite a few do.  They're very annoying.
[04:45] <kritzstapf> Ferret, okay: http://phpfi.com/190702
[04:45] <allme> pike: this is not what i got
[04:45] <Aberry> Im IT admin, we don't :p
[04:45] <masura> argh
[04:46] <pike_> allme: im not sure there is a solution there for you.  one person on the thread reported your error.  might be better just to install a diff version. 6.06 or 6.10 both are current and stable
[04:46] <allme> whith no parameters it stops after booting kernel
[04:46] <allme> i have 6.06
[04:46] <pike_> allme: this is a new install?
[04:46] <Ferret> Aberry: You can get around it in IE and firefox by holding either Shift- or Control- while clicking refresh on the 'old' page it gives you (I forget which).  Permanent solution would be to use a proxy server, but the problem is (a) finding one and (b) whether it's allowed at your workplace (it'll circumvent security and some firewalling and filters and things)
[04:46] <allme> yes
[04:46] <incorrect> im trying to nohup scp & but no out put is going into nohup.out
[04:47] <Aberry> ferret: plus that wouldnt explain my home pc, even after clearing all internet history and files it still does it
[04:47] <Zaggynl> Anyone here uses gaim and quod libet?
[04:47] <NChief> hmm.. jeg skal liksom kjre MySQL.. jeg skriver: /etc/init.d/mysql start .. det skjer ingenting(ikke no feilmelling ingenting) .. men MySQl er ikke startet.. jeg fr vertfall ikke kontakt gjennom php.. og -bash: mysql: command not found :S
[04:47] <pike_> allme: id try 6.10. short of using a different kernel or something im not sure how to fix that error
[04:47] <NChief> sry
[04:47] <NChief> wrong chan
[04:47] <allme> ok
[04:48] <allme> thanks anyway
[04:48] <Nvening> does anyone know of a good mailing list reader as i find using mailing lists with gmail poor???
[04:48] <Ferret> Aberry: Your home PC and work PC all do this on ubuntu websites?  With firefox/IE on both of them?
[04:48] <bokey> Nvening, news reader ?
[04:48] <Nvening> ill look thx
[04:48] <kritzstapf> Ferret, further ideas?
[04:49] <Aberry> ferret: firefox and IE 7 at work, IE 6 at home
[04:49] <Aberry> I would be using ubuntu on my other pc but I need to use the forums to get the wifi working :p
[04:49] <break_> haha
[04:49] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Try using the same command I gave but mono-common and mono-jit instead of mono
[04:49] <break_> if i ever need quick internet access, i grab my live cd
[04:50] <break_> it always works, and it only takes a minute to boot up and configure
[04:50] <jrib> kritzstapf: you may want to pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list too
[04:50] <kritzstapf> Ferret, gets me Reinstallation of mono-common is not possible, it cannot be downloaded., same with -jit
[04:50] <Ferret> Aberry: Can you test to see if holding shift and clicking the refresh button (or control, not sure) makes it work?
[04:51] <kritzstapf> sources.list: http://phpfi.com/190704
[04:51] <FlimFlamMan> hello.  i'm wondering why i don't see graphvis available in apt-cache search, but there is a page for it in the list of packages for edgy?
[04:51] <suyuki> hmmm I'll give it another try, thanks people
[04:51] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Try all three packages again but add --fix-broken
[04:52] <hexidigital> can someone point me to redirect http:// requests to https:// ?
[04:53] <jrib> kritzstapf: if you remove mono-common with dpkg does it still remove the other stuff?
[04:53] <hexidigital> or should i ask in #apache?
[04:53] <pty> FlimFlamMan: are you searching for graphviz or graphvis ?
[04:53] <Ferret> hexidigital: Yes please.
[04:53] <FlimFlamMan> pty: ??
[04:53] <Scorpix> plop all
[04:53] <Scorpix> ^^
[04:53] <pty> FlimFlamMan: " i'm wondering why i don't see graphvis " <----
[04:54] <FlimFlamMan> pty: yes, i'm searching for "graphvis" - but your statement said that twice
[04:54] <Scorpix> me too xD
[04:54] <pty> FlimFlamMan: I think the package you may be looking for is graphviz
[04:54] <FlimFlamMan> pty: oh man, n.m.
[04:54] <hhanne> can someone help my with my ddclient config? the problem as you can see here http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/6491/ is the double entry in the ps aux output. under the output I've pasted my ddclient.conf
[04:54] <pty> no; once with an S once with a Z :p
[04:54] <FlimFlamMan> pty: sorry - jeesus
[04:54] <pty> FlimFlamMan: lol no problem; easily done
[04:55] <kritzstapf> jrib, http://phpfi.com/190706
[04:55] <oidia> when trying to install a usb-> serial adapter my mouse stoped working, what can i have done?
[04:55] <kritzstapf> Ferret, --fix-broken doesnt help
[04:55] <Enselic``> whats the offtopic chanell again?
[04:56] <kritzstapf> Ferret, still the "it cannot be downloaded"-error
[04:57] <sansplomb98> Scorpix where are you :p
[04:58] <Cleff1> woot I made it in
[04:58] <nn531> hey how come i cant play wmv files in firefox, i installed the mozilla-mplayer package
[04:58] <kritzstapf> grats Cleff1
[04:58] <Cleff1> Hi, I can't get ubuntu to recognize hard-drives
[04:59] <pike_> nn531: w32codecs
[04:59] <nn531> pike_: installed those too
[04:59] <Ferret> hhanne: I'm not sure the last three lines are right.  Check against http://www.dyndns.com/support/kb/archives/using_ddclient_with_dyndns_services.html and also look at dmesg :)
[04:59] <kitchen> I've browsed around and haven't found an answer; is there a timeline on the rebuild of eft:linux-restricted-modules to pick up the latest nvidia drops?
[04:59] <nn531> pike_: it worked on one video and then it never worked again
[04:59] <pike_> nn531: if you go to about:plugins  in firefox addressbar does mplayer show up?
[05:00] <savek> hi
[05:00] <hhanne> Ferret, thank you, I'll have a look at the link
[05:00] <Scorpix> victor____ ^^
[05:00] <Ferret> kritzstapf: That doesn't sound like the same error. o.o
[05:00] <victor____> lol
[05:00] <nn531> pike_: application/x-mplayer2
[05:00] <pike_> hrm
[05:00] <victor____> c anglais la ?
[05:01] <kritzstapf> Ferret, as i said before: "<kritzstapf> Ferret, gets me Reinstallation of mono-common is not possible, it cannot be downloaded., same with -jit"
[05:01] <victor____> ok ok
[05:01] <Cleff1> Hi, I can't get my ubuntu to recognize hard drive partitions when I try to install it
[05:01] <pike_> nn531: you could do "pkill firefox" then ""mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla-old" and restart firefox to see if its a profile thing
[05:02] <v0x> maybe your host adapter isnt supported, clef
[05:02] <victor____> ok ok
[05:02] <jrib> kritzstapf: I would try searching for every package that got installed and forcing those to downgrade.  I'm pretty sure there is a way to make dpkg force a downgrade.  It seems to even have a downgrade command according to the manual
[05:02] <pike_> nn531: im assuming firefox2 is still under .mozilla and not .firefox now
[05:02] <Cleff1> that might be it, I was able to install SUSU Linux and Windows
[05:02] <berzoid> Hi, I am looking for a physics program with which I can capture the coordinates of a movement I recorded in a video.
[05:02] <max1> Hello can anyone tell me if apache2 runs throughuser www-data automatically or do you have to set this yourself?
[05:02] <nn531> pike_: what does that mean
[05:02] <victor____> je suis d'acoord
[05:03] <Cleff1> Anyways I can get my adapter supported?
[05:03] <Ferret> kritzstapf: That's not quite the same error message as the original, can you pastebin the command output that gives you that please?
[05:03] <victor____> koi 2 9 sinon XD
[05:03] <v0x> max: Is does that as default afaik
[05:03] <victor____> c pas vrai ?
[05:03] <kritzstapf> Ferret, yep http://phpfi.com/190708
[05:03] <Ferret> max1: Try it and see?  If it doesn't, there are probably some lines in the conf file that you can uncomment or otherwise use to make it do such a common task.
[05:04] <pike_> nn531: ~ just means /home/yourusername  you can use them interchangably. there is a direcotory containing config files in your home dir for most apps firefox is normally under .mozilla
[05:04] <thugren> hey can anyone tell me how to enable the root account?
[05:04] <nn531> gotcha
[05:04] <kritzstapf> jrib, but to use "dpkg -i --force-downgrade" i need the .deb-file, dont i?
[05:04] <pike_> nn531: when you remove the config directory the next time it starts it will create a new one. so its like you run it for the first time
[05:04] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Aha, ah yes... it can't find the versions you have installed, 'cos they're silly versions.  Let's see...
[05:04] <Verithrax> Hm, any issues with the XFCE composite manager in Edgy? I set up the composite extension on X and started xfce4. I even restarted xfwm explicitly with the compositing on.
[05:05] <jrib> kritzstapf: I don't know, but if you do, just grab it from packages.ubuntu.com
[05:05] <kritzstapf> Ferret, youve got it ;)
[05:05] <nn531> pike_: no dice, it's still sittin there being dumb
[05:05] <victor____> Scorpix ca va XD
[05:05] <Ferret> kritzstapf: How about changing the command to install mono-1.1.17.1-1ubuntu7.1 specifically?  I dunno if apt lets you specify version exactly like that, but we can try it
[05:05] <nn531> pike_: it's supposed to load inside the video thing right?
[05:06] <pike_> nn531: ah. then if you had any bookmarks or aything id do pkill firefox and mv .mozilla-old .mozilla to get profile back.  yes
[05:06] <Scorpix> please, is there a spamserv here?
[05:06] <nn531> k
[05:06] <pike_> nn531: rm the current .mozilla first
[05:06] <jrib> kritzstapf, Ferret: yep, i was about to suggest what Ferret suggested too: you can try sudo aptitude install foo=version   or apt-get.  Try both and see
[05:07] <nn531> pike_: oh well im not too worried about the bookmark I lost
[05:07] <itsme> hello
[05:08] <rajiv_nair> hello:)
[05:08] <Ferret> Scorpix: If you mean a network-run channel bot to prevent spam, then I don't think so.  Join #freenode-social , wait for voice, and ask there? o.o
[05:08] <kritzstapf> Ferret, jrib: http://phpfi.com/190709
[05:09] <Scorpix> thx :)
[05:09] <kritzstapf> arg, wrong command
[05:09] <itsme> i need somebody to confirm a bug in Edgy, its very easy
[05:09] <itsme> ten i will report it
[05:09] <Cleff1> Hello, I am having trouble installing ubuntu on my system.  It won't recognize a hard drive partition.  I think it might be caused by my adaptor not being supported; is there any way for it to be supported?
[05:09] <kritzstapf> hm, right command, but copied too much :D
[05:10] <pike_> Cleff1: not much help but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation  lists different install options one might work for you
[05:10] <syd67ro> hello. I want to reinstall ubuntu for a friend of mine. he has an amd64 architecture. he is more interested in functionality rather than performance. should I go for the 32bit? I know that there 64bit support is not that good (flash, for instance).
[05:10] <hhanne> Ferret, I did not have the correct /etc/default/ddclient I think. But now I hope it works. Thanks for helping. bye
[05:11] <ddub> syd67ro: you're probably better off with the 32 bit iso for now if it's being used for a desktop
[05:11] <jrib> syd67ro: yeah, go with 32bit
[05:11] <Ferret> kritzstapf: Hrrrm.  That's a bit annoying.
[05:11] <itsme> what do you mean functionality ?  64 bits with Automatix2 works really well
[05:12] <kritzstapf> Ferret, a bit..
[05:12] <pike_> syd67ro: yeah 32 bit. k7 kernel is what i normally use
[05:12] <Cleff1> I am using 64 bit and I am having lots of problems installing
[05:12] <syd67ro> itsme: well, he's a lawyer. he doesnt care much about system internals. he wants stuff to work smoothly.
[05:12] <itsme> then ok
[05:12] <bonano> que pasa
[05:13] <nn531> pike_: is there a w32 codec for edgy? i think I might install that, I installed dapper before
[05:13] <jrib> kritzstapf: well nothing looks important, why not just install them back afterwards?
[05:13] <Ferret> Or possibly tell ubuntu to reinstall them first
[05:13] <kritzstapf> hm
[05:13] <jrib> kritzstapf: does aptitude say the same?  I'm curious if it is apt-get's autoremove doing that
[05:13] <bonano> hola
[05:13] <Kurumim> Hello!
[05:14] <Kurumim> Is there a way to update my kernel on the fly?
[05:14] <pike_> nn531: well im still in dapper so im not aware of any issues with edgy and the normal w32codecs but i have used different ones at times because of trouble playing .asf files in normal package
[05:14] <bonano> hello kurumim
[05:14] <Kurumim> Is there a way to update my kernel on the fly?
[05:14] <itsme> hello does anyone here uses usb sticks with edgy ?
[05:15] <Ferret> syd67ro: I agree with just sticking to 32-bit for the moment.  It won't make that much of a huge difference performance-wise
[05:15] <jrib> itsme: yes
[05:15] <itsme> can you confirm something for me ?
[05:15] <jrib> itsme: just ask
[05:15] <Ferret> Kurumim: That's still being worked on by the kernel developers.  It's called kexec, I believe
[05:15] <Pie-rate> what does COW do?
[05:15] <deepsa> can someone tell me how to compile kernel in ubuntu
[05:15] <jrib> !kernel | deepsa
[05:15] <itsme> copy a big file, almost to the size of the usb stick, to the stick, from the console

[05:16] <Ferret> Waah aliases
[05:17] <deepsa> i want support for my sound card in the kernel
[05:17] <erUSUL> Kurumim: you mean without reboot? no
[05:17] <itsme> jrib ?

[05:17] <Kurumim> erUSUL: i'm in Kurumim, a live cd
[05:17] <burepe_> Is this my video card? "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. ProSavage KM133" this is out put from lspci
[05:17] <jrib> itsme: one sec, I'll try in a bit
[05:17] <Ferret> It's a graphics card, yes
[05:17] <Kurumim> erUSUL: old version which do not recognize my SATA HD
[05:17] <itsme> ok
[05:18] <pike_> burepe_: ah thats a troublesome card ive heard
[05:18] <Kurumim> erUSUL: old kernel
[05:18] <Nvening> whats the difference between a newsgroup and a mailing list???
[05:18] <erUSUL> Kurumim: you want to update the kernel of the ubuntu install from within the live cd ??
[05:18] <itsme> jrib: in dapper, if you Safely Remove, it used to pop up a window until the copy was complete
[05:18] <Kurumim> erUSUL: i want update kernel and recognize HD and install!!!!
[05:18] <Kurumim> erUSUL: sorry
[05:18] <burepe_> pike_: yeah. it worked in 6.06 fine. Now I have 6.10 and it is junk
[05:19] <Kurumim> erUSUL: of Kurumim
[05:19] <Feldegast> Nvening a newsgroup doesn't use email messages to send messages rather the user logs into the news erver to download them
[05:19] <Kurumim> erUSUL: don't kick me off from here
[05:19] <NoEvidenZ> When I booted into Feisty, it said that there was a system update. Now the updater says it's upgrading to version 6.10. Is that a glitch, or is it actually turning my feisty into edgy?
[05:19] <Nvening> ok
[05:19] <Kurumim> does somebody know a MINIMALIST linux
[05:19] <jrib> Kurumim: DSL?
[05:19] <Kurumim> just kernel + bash
[05:19] <itsme> dsl is good
[05:19] <erUSUL> Kurumim: i do not have the power to do so.... but i can add you to my ignore list....
[05:20] <Kurumim> jrib: dialed
[05:20] <itsme> Kurium: Damn Small Linux
[05:20] <pike_> Kurumim: damn small linux or one of the light slax
[05:20] <burepe_> Pike_ do you know a solution to the problem? what driver do I need?
[05:20] <Kurumim> just kernel + bash
[05:20] <jrib> Kurumim: huh?
[05:20] <kritzstapf> jrib, Ferret: fixed it, aptitude was smart enough to downgrade just those few packages :) thank you
[05:20] <Feldegast> Kurumim gento? there is also a roll your own....
[05:20] <pike_> burepe_: sorry no. vesa not working?
[05:20] <Kurumim> which do RECOGNIZE my SATA, for God!!
[05:20] <funkja> I have a digital camera connected with usb and ubuntu isn't automatically mounting it. What is the easiest way to go about getting to the pictures/
[05:21] <Kurumim> DSL is too big
[05:21] <itsme> I have found that feisty is not very good with the USB devices
[05:21] <Kurumim> 60MB
[05:21] <Kurumim> gentoo?
[05:21] <Kurumim> is small?
[05:21] <deepsa> NoEvidenZ: lol
[05:21] <jrib> itsme: I'm on edgy.  It tells me te device is busy and won't let me eject
[05:21] <Kurumim> just kernel + bash?
[05:21] <Kurumim> hrr, kernel + bash + apt :)
[05:21] <itsme> there'a linux (forgot the name) that is a router on a floppy
[05:21] <itsme> now that's small
[05:21] <itsme> jrib: hmmmm
[05:22] <itsme> jrib: any idea how to even begin to debug this one ?
[05:22] <burepe_> pike_: Yeah I got 800x600 resolution. It is too low. I tried to fix it by running the auto detector again and I got in an endless log-in screen loop. Same thing happend when I edited xorg.conf to use 1024x768
[05:22] <Kurumim> Ferret: that what?
[05:22] <itsme> you have the behavior I want
[05:22] <jrib> itsme: nope, not really.  Checked for bug reports?
[05:22] <Kurumim> Ferret: kernel update on the fly?
[05:22] <dfgas> anyone use ddclient?
[05:23] <itsme> jrib: i wll now, but I thought it was generalized
[05:23] <Kurumim> I'm updating apt list
[05:23] <itsme> jrib: thx for help !
[05:23] <Be_Linux> I want to know how to definition my VGA Driver "NVIDIA" Gforce 440 .... any help her
[05:23] <Kurumim> i'm intended to after that update the kernel
[05:23] <Kurumim> but i'll have to reboot
[05:23] <pike_> burepe_: you might google that card and see if there are some funky settings that work best in the xorg.conf file.  other than that the only thing i know about it is hearing a few friends complain about em
[05:23] <Kurumim> and the kernel will go to space
[05:23] <WARlrus> Hi, I'm having some trouble getting a USB wireless network adapter working in Ubuntu. I've got a Belkin F5D7050
[05:23] <deepsa> anybody here use 2.16.20 ?
[05:24] <revence> clear
[05:24] <Kurumim> there's no way to install a kernel on the HD
[05:24] <burepe_> pike_: how could it work in 6.06 and not now? maybe I should use a 6.06 live cd and check the settings
[05:24] <Kurumim> does somebody know a little program for recognizing a SATA HD
[05:24] <Kurumim> and starting an installation of some linux?
[05:24] <WARlrus> I've looked on the Ubuntu Wiki, but its not listed
[05:25] <pike_> burepe_: updated drivers maybe?  personally im sticking with 6.06 for a while anyway :)
[05:25] <deepsa> Kurumim: try gentoo its real easy
[05:25] <Kurumim> WARlrus: are ya talking to me?
[05:25] <WARlrus> I'm talking to anyone who can help me!
[05:25] <WARlrus> I'm completely new to Linux...
[05:25] <Ferret> Kurumim: I am confused.  Is your problem simply that you're on the livecd but your drives aren't there?
[05:25] <max__> i vilken map ligger firefox plugins map=
[05:26] <Kurumim> deepsa: i thought Gentoo is a COMPLETE linux
[05:26] <deepsa> WARlrus: wireless usb hmm..
[05:26] <Kurumim> deepsa: not MINIMALIST
[05:26] <Peggerrr> is there any way to make it so that when using sudo you can allow acces to any file in a certain directory
[05:26] <deepsa> WARlrus: lsusb?
[05:26] <WARlrus> ?
[05:26] <Ferret> Kurumim: This isn't the right channel for any kind of discussion on the right linux for you, please.
[05:26] <Kurumim> Ferret: exactly
[05:26] <WARlrus> I'm completely new to Linux... lol
[05:26] <deepsa> WARlrus: type this command sudo lsusb
[05:26] <Kurumim> Ferret: grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:26] <Feldegast> Konnektion Gentu is a kernel and any packages u choose to install
[05:26] <Ferret> Peggerrr: can you give an example to clarify?
[05:27] <WARlrus> okay, one second. I'm using both PC's on the same moniter
[05:27] <Kurumim> Ferret: it's related to Ubuntu!!!!!
[05:27] <burepe_> pike_: thanks for the info. can you tell me what is the name of the card. I mean, what part of this line is the name I should search? 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. ProSavage KM133
[05:27] <deepsa> Kurumim: why don't you use baby-linux
[05:27] <Kurumim> Ferret: the most promissor linux nowadays
[05:27] <pike_> WARlrus: im not being a jerk or anything but id consider ebay'n it and getting a new pcmcia or pci card..
[05:27] <funkja> Ubuntu isn't automatically dectecting and mounting my digital camera. I have it plugged in and it is showing up with lsusb. What handles the automatically mounting of usb devices?
[05:27] <Ferret> Kurumim: Right, well, if your problem is "the ubuntu livecds don't see my sata disks", then try SAYING that.  I've only figured it out by deduction etc.
[05:27] <pike_> burepe_: s3 prosavage km133
[05:27] <Kurumim> Ferret: simply DONT'T WORK ON CORE 2 DUO
[05:28] <Ferret> Right, whatever.
[05:28] <burepe_> pike thanks
[05:28] <WARlrus> I tried sudo lsusb, but it asks for a password and won't let me type one in :S
[05:28] <Kurumim> Ferret: there's a channel #linux for general discussions like this?
[05:28] <Kurumim> the most promissor linux nowadays
[05:28] <Ferret> Kurumim: ##linux
[05:29] <Peggerrr> Ferret, I have a bunch of scripts in a directory and I just want to say, any script in this dir can be excuted as root, and not have to expliitly set up every script explicitly
[05:29] <Kurumim>  simply DONT'T WORK ON CORE 2 DUO
[05:29] <Kurumim> oh Ubunti, oh Ubuntu!!!
[05:29] <deepsa> WARlrus: lol. dude type the password when it ask you because the password you type doesn't show up. lol
[05:29] <pike_> burepe_: s3 used to be a cool company for cards in the day
[05:29] <WARlrus> pike_: I can't afford one at the moment, this is all I've got
[05:29] <WARlrus> Ahh...
[05:29] <WARlrus> Right, so I type in my password?
[05:29] <deepsa> ya
[05:29] <Kurumim> wait to April to install my Ubuntu on C2D???
[05:29] <deepsa> Kurumim: wtf u r doing here goto ##linux

[05:29] <Kurumim> Where is my Windows!!!!
[05:29] <Kurumim> I LOVE Ubuntu, but God!
[05:30] <Kurumim> there's no patch I can apply???
[05:30] <WARlrus> Right, It does show the Belkin device :)

[05:30] <sas_> Hi. I just installed Ubuntu for my dad on his laptop, 6.06 it was. Ubuntu preformed some updates, I installed some things for Firefox such as RealPlayer and some other "plugins" then rebooted the computer, then the sound ie. in youtube.com worked. That was yesterday, now it will not work but ONLY through Firefox, the sound in Skype, and in movies (the Mandela movie in Examples) are working. Does anyone have any idea of what

[05:37] <Lacr0ix> deepsa : Hi mate ;)
[05:38] <kritzstapf> sas_, which value is set for FIREFOX_DSP in /etc/firefox/firefoxrc?
[05:38] <Ferret> clouseau: 'apt-cache showpkg libc6' or '/lib/libc*' should work
[05:38] <deepsa> WARlrus: ok i forgot what exactly i mean what was your problem
[05:38] <deepsa> Lacr0ix: hi. hows its going dude
[05:38] <WARlrus> I can't get the thing working...
[05:38] <deepsa> WARlrus: what you want to do?
[05:38] <cMc> i've downloaded 6.06 and 6.10 and burned and neither of the cd's i burn work correctly
[05:38] <pike_> WARlrus: what model of usb wireless card again?
[05:38] <Lacr0ix> deepsa : quite fine - yourself?
[05:39] <deepsa> Lacr0ix: enjoying ubuntu spirit. right now in fiesty.
[05:39] <sas_> jrib: Hehe... I know it does not work on youtube.com (I do have the image though), let's see...FIREFOX_DSP is set to none...
[05:39] <solarbunny> how do I find out which package a file on a system belongs to?
[05:39] <julo> salut
[05:39] <WARlrus> its a Belkin F5D7050
[05:39] <jrib> sas_: use flash beta which uses alsa by default.  It's available in dapper and edgy backports
[05:39] <julo> oups
[05:39] <julo> hi
[05:40] <Ferret> solarbunny: dpkg -S I think?
[05:40] <Ferret> solarbunny: dpkg -L is the other direction
[05:40] <solarbunny> oh ok thanks
[05:40] <WARlrus> and it has just appeared in Network settings... I think it may be working
[05:40] <WARlrus> one moment
[05:40] <mov> has anyone else had problems with sound not working after an upgrade to 6.06 LTS?

[05:40] <burepe_> pike_:  I am gonna try out that link you sent me, but I also searched the card name and there wasn't so many hits, so I was wondering if there is a different way to refer to this card? savage? or vega? Do you know what I mean?
[05:40] <deepsa> mov: lspci -vv pastebin and lsmod | grep snd pastebin plz?
[05:41] <sas_> jrib: I guess FIREFOX_DSP should be set to..something else? I haven't been using Linux in 8 years (work reasons) but now I wans Ubuntu at home as well, it's nice (although tricky)... how do I install that version of flash?
[05:41] <WARlrus> deepsa: Yeah its just suddenly started working :S
[05:41] <WARlrus> Thanks for the help :D
[05:41] <deepsa> WARlrus: mention not
[05:41] <mov> deepsa: ok sec.
[05:41] <pike_> burepe_: i normally think of it as an s3 card or savage i mean yours is a prosavage. not sure of diff
[05:41] <WARlrus> :) Thanks... you'll probably see me back on here in about 10 mins when I break something else!
[05:41] <WARlrus> I'll restart it in a bit and see if it stays active...
[05:42] <kritzstapf> jrib, how is the package of the flash beta called?
[05:42] <deepsa> NoEvidenZ: when you try to update fiesty it shows its going to convert it to 6.10 because it's the stable one. so don't do a distribution upgrade as for now
[05:42] <jrib> sas_: someone else suggested FIREFOX_DSP.  Before the beta, you had to use aoss to get flash to play sound at the same time as other apps.  The beta uses alsa by default now so it should "just work".  I'll have the bot send you info on enabling backports
[05:42] <burepe_> pike thanks

[05:47] <clouseau> does that mean glibc 2.3.6 or 2.3.5?
[05:47] <Ferret> clouseau: Isn't that the information you require?
[05:47] <deepsa> MeWally: can you tell what soundcard you have
[05:47] <cMc> will it play acc files?
[05:47] <mov> deepsa: same as always. everything looks fine, no sound is coming from my speakers.
[05:47] <Ferret> clouseau: Ahh, Is ee what you mean, lemme check

[05:48] <mov> deepsa: and there's nothing wrong outside my computer, everything worked before the upgrade and I haven't touched anything since
[05:48] <MeWally> ok i will...its that that I have an on board sound chip from SIS
[05:49] <deepsa> mov: i guess you need to check the player's setting. what player you are using?
[05:49] <Ferret> clouseau: OK, the exact version you actually have should be printed when you run: /lib/libc*
[05:49] <mov> this is what happens when you violate the "if it works, don't fix it" principle...
[05:49] <mov> deepsa: tried with xmms and vlc
[05:49] <dcordes> how can i play my favourite neo geo roms on ubuntu?
[05:49] <solarbunny> how does ubuntu run 32bit code on 64bit system? Also do I need separate /lib because /lib64 is just symlink to /lib so libs are 32bit or 64? (edgy x86_64)
[05:50] <deepsa> mov: is the default output in these players set to alsa?
[05:50] <pike_> MeWally: could you just disable that in bios and use the sb card?
[05:50] <Ferret> clouseau: I'm not familiar with that program, but I take it from your question that it's some kind of binary closed-source type program compiled against an incompatible libc, and you get a libc symbol or version mismatch error?
[05:50] <mov> deepsa: I don't know... I'm assuming so, as they worked before the upgrade?
[05:50] <MeWally> oohw!!! thats the option!! whehe Ill to that first!!
[05:50] <Buhu2> guys am I asking this in the wrong channel? :$
[05:50] <MeWally> see you all!
[05:50] <MeWally> thnx , by

[05:50] <clouseau> Ferret: yay! that worked, it's 2.3.6. They are also asking for version of "libm"
[05:51] <deepsa> Buhu2: what's the issue ?
[05:51] <solarbunny> Ferret: oh rly?
[05:51] <jrib> sas_: either should work, you'll need to restart firefox though
[05:51] <Buhu2>  I am trying to install Sun's Looking Glass on Ubuntu drapper, and it failed to load, I read that it is highly recommended to switch from OpenGL 1.2 to 1.3, how can I do that please?

[05:51] <nwf_> can anyone help me intalling new alsa drivers
[05:51] <deepsa> cMc: 6.10 is stable
[05:52] <solarbunny> pike_: ok... i'll try thanks.
[05:52] <deepsa> nwf_: alsa drivers? alsa is built into the kernel. you need to disable alsa support from within the kernel in order to compile alsa drivers
[05:52] <mov> deepsa: you know any good application for debugging/testing the sound?
[05:52] <cMc> i can't download and install either of them they both freez but 5.9 (which have and is working) was fine
[05:52] <jrib> cMc: imo only reason to use 6.06 over 6.10 is if you don't want to upgrade to new releases.  ie you want to stick with 6.06 for a long time and receive security updates during that time
[05:52] <deepsa> mov: madplay
[05:52] <sas_> jrib: I know I sound stupid here, but what is tha package I should install...?
[05:52] <pike_> cMc: 6.06 is still kept current and is the long term support. if i were installing it on someones machine id use 6.06. its what i still use myself also
[05:52] <qhartman> I have run into what I believe is either a kernel or BIOS bug regarding SATA on some HP dc5750 workstations I have. Anyone here willing to talk through it with me and give some feedback?
[05:52] <Ferret> clouseau: That's surprisingly difficult to search for ;p
[05:53] <deepsa> qhartman: tell your problem
[05:53] <jrib> sas_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree  should prompt you to upgrade your current version
[05:53] <clouseau> Ferret: yeah, that's what I thought too
[05:53] <SeraLap> hm, why can I ping IP's but not hostnames on my network?
[05:53] <Buhu2> deepsa: I need to install OpenGL 1.3 instead of 1.2 how can I do that please?
[05:53] <pike_> cMc: tried alternate install cd?
[05:53] <nwf_> deepsa: that means i need to recompile it ?
[05:53] <deepsa> Buhu2: i really don't know that one
[05:53] <cMc> i've burned lik 5 cds
[05:53] <cMc> and the same problems..
[05:53] <sas_> jrib: thanks a million
[05:53] <deepsa> nwf_: ya you need to recompile the kernel
[05:53] <cMc> even check the md5 information
[05:53] <Ferret> clouseau: Your libm version number is the same as the lib version number, or should be: libm is part of libc
[05:53] <pike_> cMc: 8x or lower speed using the alternate or server install cd maybe instead of live
[05:53] <deepsa> curs0r: hey dude hows its going
[05:53] <Ferret> clouseau: 'echo /lib/libm-*' is the best I can give you o.o
[05:54] <curs0r> hey deepsa
[05:54] <xmOD> hey can i use the gnome desktop on ubuntu?
[05:54] <Buhu2> deepsa: ok no worries thanks alot
[05:54] <dcordes> no neo geo freaks here?
[05:54] <deepsa> xmOD: yes
[05:54] <xmOD> and how do i use it?
[05:54] <deepsa> lol
[05:54] <clouseau> Ferret: thanks! (I did updatedb and locate libm and got /lib/libm-2.3.6.so) so I'm going with 2.3.6
[05:54] <xmOD> i have no idea at all about it!
[05:54] <Buhu2> guys, I also tried to install XGL but ever since I'm getting this as soon as Ubuntu start and I should be ready to enter my username and pass to log on: "Failed to start the X Server."
[05:54] <qhartman> deepsa: In a nutshell, kernel > 2.6.19 works fine on one machine, but does not on another. The only difference between the two is that the ine where it does _not_ work has a dual-core processor and 4 GB of RAM, vs 1 GB single-core in the other.
[05:54] <deepsa> xmOD: i suppose you know that gnome is the default desktop in ubuntu if you want kde you need to have kubuntu
[05:54] <pike_> xmOD: youre in gnome by default.  when you login thats what loads its your desktop environment
[05:54] <Ferret> SeraLap: That indicated a DNS problem.  Does your network use DHCP (automatic IP assignment)?
[05:55] <deepsa> qhartman: you need to compile kernel
[05:55] <amir__> What is the program called where you listen to radio and you need XMMS to use it?
[05:55] <xmOD> ok
[05:55] <cyris> i was playing around with nsswitch.conf and im unable to login as root now, i tried restarting in recovery mode, but im still prompted to use a username and password (which doesnt work) any ideas?
[05:55] <Ferret> Buhu2: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for the error messages
[05:55] <xmOD> and for example the latest release is 2.16 so how do i install it?
[05:55] <cMc> can you change the burn speed in infra recorder?
[05:56] <qhartman> deepsa: I've already compiled the latest -mm kernel, and I get the same problem. It sees the controller fine, but fails to identify any devices on it. I've also swapped the drice out of the working box to the failing box and I still see the same behavior.
[05:56] <sas_> Now we have sound... thank you a lot!
[05:56] <sas_> cheers...
[05:56] <Ferret> Binary distribution, you don't get a choice of what versions of things to run? ;p
[05:56] <qhartman> deepsa: I've also copied the bios settings from the working box to the failing box
[05:56] <screechingcat> amir__: internet radio >
[05:56] <screechingcat> amir__: or FM radio ?
[05:56] <deepsa> qhartman: try kernel 2.16.20
[05:56] <Buhu2> Ferret: ok got it, should I post it on pastebin.com ?
[05:56] <xmOD> pike_: and for example the latest release is 2.16 so how do i install it?
[05:56] <nwf_> deepsa: thank anyway .. i will pass .. i m too newbie to recompile it
[05:57] <deepsa> xmOD: i have 2.17 in fiesty
[05:57] <amir__> internet radio
[05:57] <qhartman> deepsa: the -mm I used in based on .20
[05:57] <amir__> BTW i found out its called streamtuner
[05:57] <xmOD> thats classified as unstable deepsa
[05:57] <Atomix> mysql-server-4.1 installation problem please help, heres the errors > http://pastebin.com/851976
[05:57] <screechingcat> amir__: yes it is. and you dont need xmms for it
[05:57] <deepsa> qhartman: it should work. try to disable support from within the kernel and compile the driver code independetly
[05:57] <amir__> you don't?
[05:58] <deepsa> xmOD: lol 2.17 is the latest not 2.16
[05:58] <HymnToLife> deepsa, 2.6.17, rather...
[05:58] <HymnToLife> that's the one in Edgy
[05:58] <kritzstapf> Atomix, does aptitude suggest solutions?
[05:58] <deepsa> HymnToLife: i am talking of gnome version not kernel version
[05:58] <pike_> xmOD: im not sure if its distributed with distro specific packages  or not. if so id be pretty straight forward
[05:58] <Atomix> nope
[05:58] <bengg> glop
[05:58] <Atomix> exactly the same output
[05:59] <screechingcat> amir__: nope. i dont have xmms but i use streamtuner
[05:59] <mov> deepsa: madplay plays songs without complaining or anything, as if it works... :(
[05:59] <qhartman> deepsa: thanks anyway.
[05:59] <Atomix> always 1 error
[05:59] <deepsa> mov: *cheers*
[05:59] <screechingcat> amir__: personally i think xmms is totally outdated. try one of the newer ones
[05:59] <deepsa> mov: is sound coming?
[05:59] <deepsa> amir__: try audacious
[05:59] <mov> deepsa: *as if* it works. but it doesn't :p
[05:59] <pike_> xmOD: its just a DE though.. i mean as long as you have windows displaying and the tools why bother
[05:59] <amir__> how do you type my name so fast?
[05:59] <screechingcat> amir__: or even listen or banshee or exaile
[05:59] <PeDePano> amir__, like linux terminal
[06:00] <deepsa> amir__: just type in few character's of your name and then tab
[06:00] <PeDePano> type first character and the tab
[06:00] <serengeti> hi, have some trouble installing mod_python.. here's apt's output: http://dpaste.com/4381/   Any suggestions?
[06:00] <bengg> glop
[06:00] <amir__> okaj, thank you
[06:00] <xmOD> pike: how would i install new themes? i have installed a few themes by puttin them in the .themes dir but they dont work correctly..the buttons dont show up correctly..
[06:01] <Buhu2> guys, I also tried to install XGL but ever since I'm getting this as soon as Ubuntu start and I should be ready to enter my username and pass to log on: "Failed to start the X Server." this is the LOG: http://pastebin.com/851986 thanks
[06:01] <jrib> serengeti: are you using apache or apache2?
[06:01] <serengeti> jrib, apache2
[06:02] <jrib> serengeti: then remove libapache-mod-python2.4
[06:02] <Ferret> Buhu2: That log is incomplete, the end is cut off.
[06:02] <alecjw> hi. every midi playing/composing program crahes hwen i open it (except timidity, whach only plays about half of the parts). i think this is becuase my midi engine doesn't work. i'm assuming that it's built in to my sound card, which is an intel ich5. how can i fix it?
[06:03] <Buhu2> Ferret: this is all i have in that file
[06:03] <Clinton__> What is a good open source alternative to Limewire?
[06:03] <xmOD>  pike_:how would i install new themes? i have installed a few themes by puttin them in the .themes dir but they dont work correctly..the buttons dont show up correctly..
[06:03] <qhartman> yoops, back
[06:03] <jrib> Clinton__: frostwire
[06:03] <qhartman> yay for errant clicks
[06:04] <Clinton__> jrib: thx, I'll check that out
[06:04] <pike_> xmOD: http://art.gnome.org/ or gnomelook website there is a good faq on onthe art.gnome.org website basically you just uppack the theme to like /usr/share/themes/
[06:04] <jrib> Clinton__: or gtk-gnutella
[06:04] <serengeti> jrib, tried it already but it just suggests using apt-get -f install: http://dpaste.com/4383/
[06:04] <qhartman> anyway, if I remove half the RAM from the machine (taking it down to 2GB from 4) it works just fine.
[06:04] <alecjw> Clinton__: gtk-gnutella works with limewire, so you can download files from limewire users
[06:04] <pike_> xmOD: if you ls /usr/share/themes  all your current themes should show up
[06:04] <Clinton__> alecjw: alright
[06:05] <n00bzer> Has anyone had any luck setting up the ATI x1600 PRO AGP with Edgy?
[06:05] <jrib> serengeti: try using dpkg
[06:05] <keithhhhh> Here is question that noobs find really confusing switching over to Ubuntu.... after installing a program how do we know where the files went?? For example I installed Icecast2 I need to configure it but I cant find the configuration files....  :(
[06:05] <alecjw> Clinton__: actually, isn't limewire open source?
[06:05] <xmOD> pike_: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/29001499/  .. download this theme and see if this works for you
[06:05] <Clinton__> alecjw: not sure, it's written in Java, doesn't mean it is open source tho
[06:05] <Ferret> Buhu2: Does it work for the X driver? ("ati" or "radeon" rather than "fglrx")
[06:05] <mov> keithhhhh: you can check the properties for the package, there it'll say what files it installed
[06:05] <qhartman> keithhhhh: usually they go in /etc
[06:06] <keithhhhh> mov: in the package manager?
[06:06] <qhartman> keithhhhh: did you install from an ubuntu repo, or by hand?
[06:06] <Buhu2> Ferret: it was working normally before I tried to install XGL
[06:06] <mov> keithhhhh: yeah, synaptic
[06:06] <keithhhhh> mov: oh hehe thanks Illl take a look
[06:06] <pike_> keithhhhh: usually if you open a terminal and type ls -a youll see alot of .config files and directories once a program is run the first time theyre usually there for each user to configure in their home dir
[06:06] <labanux> is anyone know where exactly the location of ubuntu logo in application menu?
[06:06] <Ferret> Buhu2: I suggest you try one of the more specific channels, like #ati
[06:06] <sazemaster> hi
[06:07] <mov> deepsa: ah well, thanks for the help. I'm gonna go cry for a while, then do some more googling. later.
[06:07] <Ferret> labanux: The picture file?
[06:07] <labanux> some tutorial said it was located on /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps but i can't find it there
[06:07] <pike_> keithhhhh: for system wide config use the file in /etc
[06:07] <deepsa> mov: i am also living without sound here in fiesty. i am going to compile kernel now
[06:07] <mov> deepsa: gl :)
[06:07] <labanux> Ferret:yes.., the picture file
[06:07] <Buhu2> Ferret: ok thanks
[06:07] <keithhhhh> pike_: ok thanks Ill take a look see  ;)
[06:08] <klm-> dapper seems to be a lot easier and more stable than edgy
[06:08] <Ferret> labanux: I can right-click on it here and click properties and it tells me it's /usr/share/pixmaps/xubuntu-logo.png, but obviously that's in xubuntu.  Try something similar?
[06:08] <klm-> I tried edgy and nothing went right and so returned to dapper. and now everything works perfectly
[06:08] <serengeti> jrib, http://dpaste.com/4384/
[06:08] <labanux> thanx for the clue.., i'll try it
[06:08] <xmOD> _pike: any luck? u trying?
[06:08] <enrico_> hi
[06:08] <tata_> oi
[06:08] <kritzstapf> klm-, for me edgy is doing just fine
[06:08] <enrico_> a need of a help
[06:08] <alecjw> does anyone know anything about my midi problem?
[06:09] <jrib> serengeti: I meant, trying to use dpkg to remove the other one
[06:09] <serengeti> ah just a sec
[06:09] <jrib> !helpme | enrico_
[06:09] <ubotu> enrico_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:09] <keithhhhh> pike_: thanks
[06:09] <klm-> I tried edgy and lost the gnome-panel each time, and I did absolutely nothing
[06:09] <enrico_> why when I starting with icq instant messanger
[06:09] <hemant|Away> deep, hello sir
[06:09] <xnor> is it possible to use some option with mount to get a ntfs-drive read/write? i use 6.10 desktop i386 ?
[06:09] <enrico_> it cannot connect to the server?
[06:09] <pike_> xmOD: i dont have a gui right now im ssh'd into from work.  it does appear to be a valid gtk2 theme though
[06:10] <xmOD> ok so would it not be ok if i copied it into my .themes dir which is in the home directory?
[06:10] <wolfpaws> 'lo... I think there is a bug in the installation system for edgy... I've chosen a root partition, and I still get the message, that the root FS isn't defined...
[06:10] <ceL_> does anyone know if expresscards are supported under any of the linux kernels?
[06:10] <xmOD> or do i have to put it in themes in usr/share?
[06:11] <Zober> Hey guys, I was just in here as n00bzer, and using an crappy java client
[06:11] <labanux> ohh..., it wasn't there
[06:11] <pike_> xmOD: if you download then tar xfvz black.tar.gz  then sudo mv whateverdirectory /usr/share/themes/  then reopen your theme manager it doesnt work?
[06:11] <enrico_> oo
[06:11] <Zober> im having problems installing x1600 Pro under edgy
[06:11] <labanux> is anyone know where exactly the location of ubuntu logo in application menu? i want to change it with my own picture
[06:11] <Zober> has anyone had any luck at all with this video card?
[06:11] <pike_> xmOD: it should just be there then
[06:11] <xmOD> well it does show up even if i put it in .themes.. but the buttons dont show correctly
[06:12] <Otacon22> hey! when I open the mixer and I modify the preferencies, when I close it and reopen it is returned at the same before the first opening, why?
[06:12] <pike_> xmOD: ah
[06:12] <adri_> oi
[06:12] <serengeti> jrib, thanks a million :)
[06:12] <Zober> Has anyone had any luck installing the ATI x1600 PRO AGP Video card under Edgy?  I have tried every guide out there and I always end up with the same screen tear.
[06:12] <dr_> I have lost the use of password on some administrative guis such as synaptic but it works in terminal with sudo Anyone know how to fix this/
[06:13] <xmOD> pike_: any solution?
[06:13] <Zober> dr_: make sure your account is in all the right groups?
[06:14] <Zober> xmod: are the resolutions the same?
[06:14] <Buhu2> guys, I also tried to install XGL but ever since I'm getting this as soon as Ubuntu start and I should be ready to enter my username and pass to log on: "Failed to start the X Server." this is the LOG: http://pastebin.com/851986 thanks
[06:14] <pike_> xmOD: might see if someone else here can download it and look. i can get away with a terminal open but vnc from work my boss might notice :)
[06:14] <Ferret> Otacon22: Check to see if it works when you use sudo to open it; if this is the case, then your user would seem to have lost its groups or something
[06:14] <Buhu2> sorry pasted that again by mistake
[06:14] <Buhu2> guys what's an Ubuntu Splash Screen ?
[06:14] <PeDePano> how do i print in a remote printer using dosemu?
[06:14] <xmOD> hmm..
[06:14] <kibab> Does anyone know how (if possible) to specify the NETBIOS name of the machine the request is being made to (not the client machine) so I can mount (or smbmount) a share?  I'm working with a machine that has multiple names and it distinguishes by the requested name (as it only has a single IP).
[06:14] <jrib> serengeti: that looks like a bug btw, the packages should at least conflict.  So you might want to check the bug tracker
[06:15] <xmOD> zober: can u try this theme for me and tell me if it works?
[06:15] <Otacon22> Ferret, I had tryed now and there is the same problem
[06:15] <Otacon22> the ubuntu mixer is a shit
[06:15] <Zober> I would, but im here for video card issues, I cant even get x to work =P

[06:16] <sdasd> cool
[06:16] <kibab> Ferret: yeah, but what options?  I can specify the client machines netbios name, but not the netbios name of the machine that I'm making the request to?
[06:17] <kibab> Ferret: I did tried putting the netbios name with the ip in /etc/hosts, but it doesn't treat it as the netbios name, so it doesn't help

[06:21] <xmOD> jrib: yeah default are okay i guess.. but the ones i downloaded show up about 70% ok but the buttons are the default ones although it should show theme releated ones

[06:22] <Landon> If someone can help me, something seriously messed up in my computer. It all started with the quest to create a new windows network so that I could get some files. We recently got a new router so we had to do it. I tried connecting, and it wouldn't work, so I tried restarting. After I restarted, everything hit the fan. Now my date and time bar is in the middle of the screen on the top and so is my trash icon. And now I can't see ANY win
[06:22] <Landon> dows networks anymore. Any ideas?
[06:22] <xmOD> see if u ge the same buttons

[06:23] <alecjw> hemant|Away: the ops don't like you changing your nick when you're away. just type the commend /away instead, then /back then you return
[06:23] <xtknight> deepsa: what does  '  asoundconf list  ' report
[06:24] <pike_> Landon: try this opena a terminal and type "rm -fr .g*" then hit alt-ctrl-bkspace
[06:24] <deepsa> xtknight: nothing

[06:25] <pike_> Agony: are you familiar with logging into the router and making changes??
[06:25] <jrib> xmOD: show me a screenshot of what is wrong with yours
[06:25] <Agony> No
[06:25] <xmOD> jrib: u got the theme installed on urs
[06:25] <alecjw> AnToAnTo: just mount it (that should happen automatically) and the go to paces>>computer and find it. then go into the DCIM folder, then the 100_Camera_model folder
[06:26] <xmOD> ?
[06:26] <alecjw> *places
[06:26] <jrib> xmOD: yes
[06:26] <Landon> That didn't work
[06:26] <Agony> How do I go about logging into the router and making changes?
[06:26] <Agony> And what changes would I need to make?
[06:27] <xmOD> well in the theme manager, do the buttons look like in the theme?
[06:27] <hemant|Away> deepsa,  any response
[06:27] <xmOD> or default one?
[06:27] <mov> deepsa: ok, progress :)
[06:27] <deepsa> mov: what happened?
[06:27] <jessid> hello friends....
[06:27] <xtknight> deepsa: hm...i'm not sure why alsa is not picking the card up
[06:27] <jessid> how is everything?
[06:27] <xmOD> jrib:  well in the theme manager, do the buttons look like in the theme?
[06:27] <deepsa> xtknight: oh
[06:27] <xmOD> jrib: or default ones?
[06:27] <pike_> Agony: open a terminal and type "netstat -rn" or just "route -n"  youll see an entry like "0.0.0.0         192.168.0.1" near the bottom thats your router the 192. address. type that in the address field in firefox and login to the router. youll need the router password and login either from the manual or google for it
[06:27] <jrib> xmOD: I don't see a screenshot with buttons, but yes they changed
[06:28] <AnToAnTo> alecjw: it doesn't work. it is not detected by nautilus
[06:28] <jrib> xmOD: and they turn black when I mouseover so I assume it works
[06:28] <jessid> I would like to ask you something: do you know about any app that allows me to translate from english to spanish and viceversa? thanks
[06:28] <mov> deepsa: well, I managed to fiddle around with vlc to get it to output sound using the sound blaster device. now I have a smaller issue: the vol up and vol down buttons on the keyboard regulate the VIA device's volume, not the creative device's. any ideas how to fix that?
[06:28] <PeDePano> jessid,what kind of text?
[06:28] <Dimensions> hi a quick question i want a mini pc for my ubuntu ... can some one tell me which processor is better Pentium M or Celeron M ?
[06:29] <xtknight> Dimensions: Pentium M...but you may want to go for a core duo or core 2 duo T series
[06:29] <deepsa> mov: i guess it can be fixed within vlc. try not to use software volume control. i guess or something like that
[06:29] <xmOD> jrib: it turns black on mine too but the shape of the buttons is default..
[06:29] <xmOD> jrib: thats now how it should be
[06:29] <deepsa> xtknight: what can i do i have the module loaded. it's a lenovo laptop.
[06:29] <xmOD> jrib: one sec
[06:30] <jessid> PeDePano what do you mean? for example if i want to know what "remember" means in spanish
[06:30] <pike_> Dimensions: or say.. AMD instead though core 2 duo would be nice
[06:30] <Agony> pike_: OK, I seem to be connected, what do I need to do?
[06:30] <xtknight> deepsa: post dmesg on pastebin?
[06:30] <PeDePano> jessid, have you tried babelfish.altavista.com?
[06:30] <mov> deepsa: no, it's an ubuntu setting. I have vol+ and vol- buttons on my keyboard that regulate the system volume, but they change the wrong card's volume...
[06:30] <jessid> PeDePano nop. but will inmediatly: thanks a lot
[06:30] <jpiccolo> look right -> /dev/sdb1   /media/sdb1 ext3  auto,user,exec,sync,rw   0   1
[06:31] <PeDePano> jessid, http://babelfish.altavista.com
[06:31] <xmOD> jrib: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/32765755/ .. try this one and see if your buttons match the ones in the theme
[06:31] <deepsa> mov: oh i see. maybe asking here helps i don't know about that issue
[06:31] <xtknight> google also has language tools
[06:31] <deepsa> xtknight: http://pastebin.ca/306736
[06:31] <pike_> Agony: two options. we can setup port forwarding that might not work depending on how specific the router will let you be or just "enable dmz".  look for a dmz option that lets you specify an ip address (your computers)
[06:31] <mov> deepsa: ok thanks
[06:31] <Agony> OK, I'll look, BRB
[06:31] <xtknight> deepsa: #
[06:31] <xtknight> [  661.268000]  HDA Intel: probe of 0000:00:1b.0 failed with error -13
[06:31] <xtknight> deepsa: not sure what that means, ill see if i can find anything
[06:31] <deepsa> ya
[06:32] <jessid> PeDePano oh very nice...something like that i was looking for, thanks again!
[06:32] <PeDePano> jessid, u r welcome!
[06:32] <mov> so... anyone know how to set which sound card's volume the vol+ and vol- keyboard keys affect?
[06:32] <Ferret> mov: One way to fix that would be to configure udev so that /dev/mixer and /dev/mixer1 got switched around.
[06:32] <xtknight> mov: manually map it with xmodmap
[06:32] <xtknight> mov: or..   asoundconf set-default-card before gnome loads
[06:33] <jessid> good bye
[06:33] <Agony> pike_: there's no option for port forwarding or dmz
[06:33] <Ferret> Oh, neat. Didn't realise there was a mechnism for setting the card to use o.o
[06:33] <mov> Ferret, xtknight: excellent tips, thanks. the thing I'd like to do is really to swap the two cards, making the secondary one the primary
[06:33] <jrib> xmOD: yep, they're the same
[06:34] <xtknight> mov: asoundconf will do that
[06:34] <xmOD> the small font and mac like buttons?
[06:34] <pike_> Agony: if not that is one crappy router. id google for dmz then the router model and see if you get a hit. otherwise wheter you use xp or mac or linux id get a decent cheap router
[06:34] <jrib> xmOD: no, the theme doesn't control the font
[06:34] <dRK_sHd0w> hey guyz whats the gaming emulator not wine it's like cadge or something??
[06:34] <xmOD> and the mac like buttons?
[06:34] <xtknight> what's the alsaconf tool on ubuntu?
[06:34] <xmOD> how do change the font?
[06:35] <xtknight> dRK_sHd0w: Cedega TransGaming
[06:35] <dRK_sHd0w> thanks
[06:35] <mov> xtknight: will changing that now with asoundconf be permanent, or will I need to alter the boot process in some way?
[06:35] <BTR> Someone please help me, my sound card : intel 82801DB-ICH4 doesnt work in linux:(
[06:35] <BTR> *ubuntu
[06:35] <xtknight> mov: you will need to alter the boot process, I believe
[06:35] <mov> ok...
[06:35] <Agony> pike_: Yeah, I know, the router is shit, but it's not mine, so I don't have much choice right now
[06:36] <matthew> is anyone familiar with gaim?
[06:36] <scoopy10> hello
[06:36] <jrib> xmOD: system > preferences > font; http://img236.imageshack.us/my.php?image=xmodsc1.png
[06:36] <dRK_sHd0w> matthew i use gaim
[06:36] <Innoruuk> Why is it that some themes work with synaptic and others don't :/
[06:37] <ameyer> BTR: If I recall the intel driver since about 2.6.12 or so has issues with the mic sense and line sense options
[06:37] <matthew> dRK_sHd0w do you have problems connecting to the msn network?
[06:37] <pike_> Agony: i just dont know a good solution thats going to be a problem regardless of OS. there is upnp but i dont like it its crappy
[06:37] <xtknight> deepsa: really weird error, cant find much on it
[06:37] <dRK_sHd0w> matthew, no
[06:37] <BTR> ameyer: So how do fix it so i can hear music?
[06:37] <ameyer> BTR: open gmix and deselect those two options
[06:37] <dRK_sHd0w> matthew, I did once before
[06:37] <matthew> dRK_sHd0w it keeps saying that it can't authenticate, although I'm 100% sure the password is right
[06:37] <deepsa> xtknight: i am using kernel 2.6.19. should i re-compile kernel with no alsa support and then compile alsa-driver?
[06:38] <Pone> Bonsoir, quelqu'un peut m'aider  monter un DD sur Kubuntu pour en rcuprer les fichiers ? Merci (pv si possible)
[06:38] <dRK_sHd0w> matthew, try to restart gaim and see if that helps
[06:38] <matthew> dRK_sHd0w already did =/
[06:38] <xmOD> jrib: THATS EXACTLY what i want.. the buttons on mine are default!!!
[06:38] <g333k_work> I want to install build-essential and all its dependencies  to another pc that doesnt have internet connection?
[06:38] <xtknight> deepsa: that may be a good idea.  though it sounds like a problem on a lower level than alsa
[06:38] <g333k_work> Ho can I install build-essential and all its dependencies  to another pc that doesnt have internet connection?
[06:38] <ameyer> BTR: actually it's headphone jack sense
[06:38] <deepsa> xtknight: the card works fine in gentoo
[06:38] <g333k_work> How*
[06:38] <Landon> Hey everyone, I have a big problem. I restarted my computer in order to view a windows network, and when I came back in, my screen was messed up, meaning my trash bin in my bottom panel is in the middle of the screen, same with my date and time. They're literally sitting in the middle of the screen at the top and bottom. And now I can't even view any windows networks using Samba. Anyone have any ideas?
[06:39] <dRK_sHd0w> matthew, go to msn.com and try to login there and reset ur password then try again
[06:39] <matthew> dRK_sHd0w do you know if the gaim client can handle symbols in the password?
[06:39] <xtknight> deepsa: ah alright, then try it (compile alsa support yourself)
[06:39] <matthew> dRK_sHd0w ok
[06:39] <deepsa> xtknight: okay
[06:39] <dRK_sHd0w> matthew, I am not sure I have numbers and characters in mine
[06:39] <BTR> ameyer: Where do i find Gmix?
[06:39] <xmOD> jrib: how did u install that theme and wat version of ubuntu u running?
[06:39] <matthew> dRK_sHd0w ahh... maybe its the symbols that throw it off
[06:39] <taylorjonl> hello
[06:40] <dRK_sHd0w> matthew, maybe give it a try
[06:40] <ameyer> BTR: should be under multimedia
[06:40] <jrib> xmOD: I just extracted to .themes and edgy
[06:40] <Ferret> g333k_work: Use --download-only on one machine, then put them in /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:40] <BTR> ameyer: It isnt:(
[06:40] <xmOD> i did the same thing and it did not work
[06:40] <Ferret> g333k_work: This assumes both machines have the same sources.list and release version, I guess
[06:40] <taylorjonl> Anyone know if Beryl works with Xgl on an ATI X1600?
[06:40] <ameyer> BTR: try opening a terminal and typing in gmix
[06:41] <jrib> xmOD: do you have the "pixmap" engine?
[06:41] <n30n> Wireless is starting seem impossible
[06:41] <xtknight> taylorjonl: #beryl   .. it should though
[06:41] <xmOD> i wont know
[06:41] <Pone> Bonsoir, quelqu'un peut m'aider  monter un DD sur Kubuntu pour en rcuprer les fichiers ? Merci (pv si possible)
[06:41] <BTR> ameyer: bash: gmix: command not found
[06:41] <g333k_work> Ferret, yep
[06:41] <xmOD> jrib: that the prob maybe.. how do i install pixmap?
[06:41] <jrib> xmOD: gtk-engines-pixmap
[06:42] <xmOD> jrib: apt-get install gtk-engines-pixmap

[06:42] <pike_> !fr
[06:42] <noelferreira> hi people. how can i use unzip command to extract a multy-part archive? i have this files: file1.zip, file2.z01, file3.z03
[06:42] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[06:42] <n30n> Please contact your system administrator to resolve the following problem:
[06:42] <n30n> SIOCGIFFLAGS error: No such device
[06:42] <xmOD> jrib: would i have to restart?
[06:42] <ameyer> BTR: gnome-volume-control
[06:43] <xtknight> n30n: when do you get that error?
[06:43] <hjmills> i am trying to create a launcher to display the output of "mpc status" in gnome-terminal using 'gnome-terminal -x "mpc play"' but it closes the term instantly - how do i make it wait 5 secs before closing?
[06:43] <jrib> xmOD: no idea
[06:43] <Ferret> g333k_work: You might want to use apt-get install --just-print on the target system to get the list of .deb files to copy over
[06:43] <xmOD> jrib: http://xmod.tjbp.net/files/Screenshot.png ... this is how mine looks
[06:43] <BTR> ameyer: And what should i disable?
[06:43] <n30n> xtknight: when i click on "eth1" in the top bar
[06:43] <Ferret> hjmills: mpc play; sleep 5
[06:43] <ameyer> BTR: headphone jack sense
[06:43] <hjmills> Ferret: thanks
[06:43] <BTR> ameyer: You mean Line in?
[06:43] <ameyer> no
[06:44] <xtknight> n30n: top bar of what?  :)
[06:44] <Innoruuk> Can anyone get this theme working with synaptic? Mine doesn't http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=50481
[06:44] <ameyer> BTR: it should be on the switches tab
[06:44] <n30n> xtknight: Up by the clock. When i click on the eth1 config thing
[06:44] <BTR> ameyer: I have Line-in capture, thats all there is under switches
[06:44] <xtknight> n30n: hmm.  i dont have any ethernet configs on the top bar.  must be a wireless thing
[06:45] <ameyer> BTR: go to Edit -> Preferences and enable Headphone jack sense and line jack sense
[06:45] <n30n> xtknight: well yeah...
[06:45] <xtknight> Innoruuk: download the .tar.gz.  drag the file into the gnome themes dialog.  works for me
[06:45] <amir__> How do I get my surround 5.1 to work?
[06:45] <Innoruuk> I have it installed, it's just that it doesn't skin synaptic.
[06:46] <jrib> xmOD: that's what my fluxbox looks like before I run gnome-settings-daemon manually
[06:46] <BTR> ameyer: I cant find anything that has "sense" in it:(
[06:46] <Innoruuk> Synaptic appears as if it had no theme.
[06:46] <minerale> has anyone used mindterm before (java applet based ssh tunnel) -- I'm wondering what the right TERM setting for it is
[06:46] <jrib> xmOD: do you have an instance of that running?
[06:46] <xtknight> Innoruuk: you're right.  same thing happens here.  let me check
[06:46] <Agony> How do I find my network card's MAC address?
[06:46] <xmOD> i dont know and lol.. wat is that?
[06:47] <xtknight> Innoruuk: synaptic is running in root.  you must copy the theme over to the root system to have root apps use GTK themes.  let me find how to do that
[06:47] <jrib> xmOD: ps -ef | grep gnome-settings-daemon
[06:47] <ameyer> BTR: are you looking in Edit -> Perferences?
[06:47] <mov> Agony: ifconfig
[06:47] <Innoruuk> Thanks.
[06:47] <Agony> kthnx
[06:47] <BTR> ameyer: Yes
[06:47] <xmOD> jrib: enter that command in terminal?
[06:47] <ameyer> BTR: do you have another card possibly?
[06:47] <jrib> xmOD: yes
[06:47] <BTR> No
[06:47] <BTR> ameyer: No, i realy dont think so
[06:48] <Innoruuk> Maybe run gnome theme manager as root would work?
[06:48] <xmOD> jrib: ok it gave some output.. now wat?
[06:48] <Agony> mov: which part's the MAC address? I get a shitload of information from that
[06:48] <jrib> xmOD: what is teh output?
[06:48] <mov> Agony: see HWaddr?
[06:48] <Agony> Yeah
[06:48] <ameyer> so File -> Change device either only shows the 82801DB-ICH4 and possibly one other entry

[06:51] <jrib> xmOD: this is a different package
[06:51] <BTR> ameyer: How does that work?
[06:51] <xmOD> jrib: am installing  gtk2-engines-pixbuf

[06:58] <xtknight> xorg62: somebody probably.  what's your question?
[06:58] <stephan21> no idea lol...gl
[06:58] <Landon> Does anyone here know how to troubleshoot Samba?
[06:58] <Fiscal> necessary of one it helps, more nao I say English well using a translator ok is giving this error: Can't parse that no files
[06:58] <xtknight> !samba
[06:58] <ubotu> 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
[06:59] <Fiscal> please
[06:59] <hjmills> xorg62: i think i have one somewhere in a pc but its not running linux....
[06:59] <Fiscal> help-me
[06:59] <xtknight> Fiscal: you may be able to find a channel using your native language.
[06:59] <xorg62> xtknight: can one connect two screen?
[06:59] <xmOD> jrib: ... got another prob :-)
[06:59] <hjmills> Fiscal: the translator not good
[06:59] <David6717> Heya
[06:59] <xtknight> :P
[06:59] <xtknight> xorg62: dual monitor with ATI?
[06:59] <David6717> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a 80gig External USB hard drive
[07:00] <David6717> but it can't detect it
[07:00] <xorg62> xtknight: yes
[07:00] <xtknight> xorg62: if your card has two ports, the ATI driver off ati.com for linux should support dual monitor
[07:00] <xmOD> jrib: i accedentally deleted the panel on the top menu which shows the minized active programs
[07:00] <xmOD> jrib: how do i get it back?
[07:00] <jrib> xmOD: right click on the panel, add to panel
[07:01] <ToHellWithGA> how can i configure a compose key in the tty and/or the GUI?  when i did a -expert install i had the option to do that, but this machine used a vanilla desktop install
[07:01] <Landon> Anyone know how to trouble shoot Samba?
[07:01] <xmOD> jrib: did that but wat to selecr?
[07:01] <xmOD> *select
[07:01] <xtknight> Landon: what's the error youre getting?
[07:01] <jrib> xmOD: window list
[07:01] <xorg62>  I must posseder the driver obligatorily
[07:01] <xorg62> 1. Choisissez le sens de la traduction :

[07:02] <Landon> xtknight: I can't view one of the windows networks. It says it can't display the contents
[07:02] <Landon> xtknight: Even though it has done it before
[07:02] <xmOD> jrib: no i din mean that.. i meant like the place.. for example if i'm running gaim then the place where it shows the gaim icon.. much like windows notification area
[07:02] <xtknight> Landon: has anything changed since then?  domain/workgroups/computer names/etc?
[07:02] <jrib> xmOD: it's called notification area iirc
[07:02] <xmOD> jrib: right beside the clock
[07:03] <Qwell[] > So, I've googled, but maybe I'm using some bad search terms..  I've got two pci nvidia video cards in this box, with the latest (non-beta) nvidia driver installed, and X is VERY choppy.
[07:03] <David6717> I need help installing Ubuntu to a external hard drive...
[07:03] <David6717> it can't detect the hard drive at all
[07:03] <David6717> anyone?
[07:03] <Landon> xtknight: We added a new network, and one computer name has changed. We also changed the router
[07:03] <cello_rasp> could someone please show me what an untouched ubuntu /etc/network/interfaces file looks like??
[07:03] <xmOD> jrib: GOT IT!
[07:03] <xmOD> jrib: thx again
[07:04] <hjmills> cello_rasp: depends on what you did to your network during the install
[07:04] <cello_rasp> if you haven't fiddled with it, do gedit /etc/network/interfaces and pastebin it if you can
[07:05] <xnor> I run my system one sata disk, now i plugged in a secondary sata disk, now ubuntu wont boot with the new disk inserted. I get a busybox prompt, pls help i want to use my new disk
[07:05] <cello_rasp> hjmills nothing at all, it just autmoatically detected settings
[07:05] <Qwell[] > my whole screen will "hang" for about 2-3 seconds occasionally..  No IRQ conflicts or anything obvious like that
[07:05] <Qwell[] > doesn't seem to matter whether I'm doing anything else - it just kinda happens
[07:05] <heapme> Qwell[]  type 'ps -X a' and see if there are any runaway processes maybe
[07:05] <xtknight> Landon: have you tried mounting the shares using CIFS?
[07:05] <Qwell[] > heapme: none, cpu usage is minimal
[07:06] <Qwell[] > like I said, it's nothing obvious
[07:06] <Landon> xtknight: Don't know what that is
[07:06] <Qwell[] > load is actually fairly significant, but nothing really accounts for it
[07:07] <Qwell[] > swapping a whopping 172 bytes
[07:08] <heapme> swapping at all might be the reason though
[07:08] <aleksanteri> how to make a window to be always on top?
[07:08] <Qwell[] > heapme: and for the record, ps -X a is invalid
[07:08] <Qwell[] > heapme: it's not the swapping :)
[07:08] <heapme> i meant ps -A x sorry
[07:08] <heapme> just woke up :p
[07:08] <xtknight> Landon: ok.  i have to go soon, you can try mounting the shares with CIFS    :  sudo apt-get install smbfs     and then 'apropos cifs'   for a manual page on CIFS and how to mount stuff
[07:08] <Qwell[] > why not just ps ax? :P
[07:09] <Landon> xtknight:  thanks, I'll try that
[07:09] <xtknight> Landon: if i recall it's something like     mount -t cifs -o username=USER,password=asdf //computername/share/   /mnt/mountpoint
[07:09] <xtknight> Landon: i do know that you can not mount a whole computer.  it must be one share
[07:09] <Landon> xtknight: That's fine, I can go one at a time
[07:09] <Landon> xtknight: Thanks again
[07:09] <xtknight> Landon: i also know that cifs works sometimes while nautilus can not see shares
[07:10] <xtknight> Landon: no problem, ill be around later.
[07:10] <Landon> xtknight: I'll try catching you then if I have any problems
[07:10] <xtknight> ok
[07:10] <xtknight> Landon: should be an hour or so.
[07:10] <reverseblade> aleksanteri, just click to top left of the window , from the menu you can set
[07:10] <aleksanteri> oh there :P

[07:13] <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+)

[07:14] <gluglu> hi everyone
[07:14] <Qwell[] > linux-lighttpd-postgresql-ruby
[07:14] <a1> hi i need help to get my wifi card working "ubuntu ntel pro wireless 3945ABG"
[07:14] <gluglu> I've just installed E17 using apt-get but I can't see it in GDM so I can't run it :(
[07:14] <a1>  intel pro wireless 3945ABG
[07:14] <burepe_> Which lamp install faq do you think is better? http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_debian_lamp_server or https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP   ?  I did the second one and I had problems getting php to work.
[07:14] <gluglu> what should i do?
[07:15] <a1> need help to get my wifi card working  intel pro wireless 3945ABG
[07:15] <a1> can some one help
[07:15] <gluglu> a1, i have the same one and it works :)
[07:15] <a1> right out the bix ?
[07:15] <a1> box
[07:16] <heapme> the p in lamp originally meant perl. how sad for perl to be knocked out by php
[07:16] <gluglu> a1, lol sorry i'm not english. what does "right out the box" mean? :p
[07:16] <a1> like right after installation
[07:16] <a1> of ubuntu
[07:16] <harushimo> question for everyone
[07:16] <heapme> fresh, no changes by you yet
[07:16] <gluglu> oh yes, directly, I just entered my essid and key and it worked
[07:16] <harushimo> is there a way to use the 6.06 LTS cd as live cd
[07:17] <gluglu> a1, with ubuntu edgy
[07:17] <burepe_> harushimo: it is that by defualt
[07:17] <jrib> harushimo: yes, the desktop cd is also the live cd
[07:17] <pike_> a1: using edgy? 6.10?
[07:17] <a1> guuglu , yes
[07:17] <burepe_> harushimo: I amy have misunderstood. What is LTS
[07:17] <a1> pike , yes
[07:17] <jrib> !lts
[07:17] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[07:17] <harushimo> burepe: Long Term Support
[07:18] <gluglu> a1, what's the problem ?
[07:18] <pike_> a1: some discussion on forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=326794&highlight=3945ABG
[07:18] <burepe_> harushimo: I think it is a live cd. But I am no expert
[07:18] <biff2> so, has something happened to KDE in edgy lately?
[07:18] <a1> its not detecting my card .. thing is i installed a wrapper
[07:18] <a1> i may have to remove that ?
[07:18] <heapme> does that mean LTS are more stable and also what happens if you enable universe/multiverse/backports on an LTS
[07:18] <heapme> void the warranty?
[07:19] <jrib> heapme: it means it will have security updates for a longer period of time
[07:19] <gluglu> a1, oh you shouldn't have. it works directly. maybe the ndiswrapper thing destroyed ur card :|
[07:19] <gluglu> a1,  yes
[07:19] <a1> gluglu , NOOO
[07:19] <Ferret> hosue
[07:19] <Nvening> hi
[07:20] <biff2> when I try to surf a web page with konqueror, I get "unknown host" errors half the time
[07:20] <gluglu> a1,  i just made that : sudo ifconfig eth1 essid "my_essid" key "my_key" then : sudo ifup eth1
[07:20] <a1> gluglu , i am going to remove that and see ok
[07:20] <heapme> has anyone else noticed that you can spend morning till 3am learning linux, everyday, barely stopping to go to the bathroom and learning a ton everyday and still not knowing that much about it? :/
[07:20] <taylorjonl> How do I get a VT in Edgy?
[07:20] <ikonia> VT ?
[07:20] <taylorjonl> I push CTRL+ALT+F1 and it doesn't give me a console
[07:20] <Qwell[] > virtual terminal
[07:20] <heapme> virtual terminal
[07:20] <heapme> press alt+f1
[07:20] <Nvening> How do i change my theme in beryl? I can get into the theme manager but see no way of applying a theme?
[07:20] <heapme> no ctrl necessary
[07:20] <Ferret> try F2, or F3?
[07:20] <HymnToLife> gluglu, iwconfig to configure wireless interfaces
[07:20] <ikonia> Nvening: /join #ubuntu-xgl
[07:20] <a1> humm
[07:20] <pike_> heapme: youve got to put in a few years at that pace.
[07:20] <adaptr> heapme: after a few years of that, you'll actually think you're getting somewhere, but you're still wrong :)
[07:20] <heapme> press alt+printscreen+r and try alt+f1 again maye
[07:21] <Nvening> i did but there be no talking
[07:21] <ikonia> Nvening: just hang around
[07:21] <jrib> Nvening: it changes as soon as you select it
[07:21] <Nvening> ill try again
[07:21] <ikonia> thats the support channel
[07:21] <Qwell[] > heapme: try stating up until 6 every day..  then you'll get it
[07:21] <ikonia> its normally quite chatty
[07:21] <gluglu> HymnToLife, i know but it worked with ifconfig :)
[07:21] <heapme> well once i finally get somewhere with linux i'll then probably start programming and be a 'white belt' again
[07:21] <gluglu> maybe because my wireless card is detected on eth1 and not something like wlan
[07:21] <heapme> so maybe in 10 years i'll be good :p
[07:21] <asfalt> Nvening there is no apply, the theme will change as you select it
[07:22] <a1>  gluglu , hummmm
[07:22] <pike_> heapme: itll pay off to i mean i did a 50 mile radius job search with keywork linux and got 3 whole results
[07:23] <heapme> at least in 10 years linux + CLI apps will still be around i'm sure. unlike investing time in other operating systems like BEOS or something
[07:23] <Qwell[] > pike_: if I do one here, I get about 50 :p
[07:23] <joshua__> does anyone know of a good howto to install e17 cvs ?
[07:23] <gluglu> a1, is your wireless interface detected when you type "iwconfig" ?
[07:23] <pike_> <--- Kentucky
[07:23] <Qwell[] > Huntsville ;)
[07:23] <a1>  gluglu , no it is not :(
[07:23] <haxality> hello!
[07:23] <ikonia> joshua__: yup
[07:24] <joshua__> ikonia: where?
[07:24] <a1> how do i get my IP address from my router ?
[07:24] <ikonia> joshua__: sorry miss-read your question, I don't have a how to
[07:24] <ikonia> I just read the deps and build it correctly
[07:24] <a1> like my external ip[ from the network ?
[07:24] <Qwell[] > a1: easier - whatismyip.com
[07:24] <haxality> I have a question about rhythmbox. I want to maintain 2 separate libraries. One for when I have my external hard drive plugged in and one for when I don't have it. Is there an easier way to do this than manually changing the library location every time?
[07:24] <joshua__> ikonia: where did you read the deps from
[07:24] <taylorjonl> that Alt-F1 for a VT doesn't work unless X is loaded?
[07:25] <heapme> there are more windows jobs than linux but theres enough linux to not need to focus on windows and life is too short to not do what you love for a living
[07:25] <taylorjonl> because it does nothing
[07:25] <ikonia> the readme
[07:25] <heapme> taylorjonl if X wasnt loaded you'd already be in teh console
[07:25] <taylorjonl> and CTRL+ALT+F1 brings up a gibberish screen
[07:25] <gluglu> a1, what do you get with "iwconfig" ???
[07:25] <taylorjonl> no, GDM
[07:25] <taylorjonl> I need to troubleshoot a X startup failure
[07:25] <a1>  gluglu, i not seeing the card
[07:25] <taylorjonl> but I can't get access to the log
[07:25] <noelferreira> file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[07:25] <haxality> ..anyone?
[07:25] <ikonia> taylorjonl: why not
[07:26] <taylorjonl> how?
[07:26] <heapme> also i meant ctrl+alt+f1, dunno why i said just alt+f1, i was thinkin just alt+f7 is necessary to get back to x, sorry.
[07:26] <taylorjonl> I can't get a console
[07:26] <ikonia> taylorjonl: I've told you - with a text editor
[07:26] <taylorjonl> lol
[07:26] <taylorjonl> if I start X it overwrites my failure
[07:26] <ikonia> it shouldn't do
[07:26] <ikonia> as xorg.0 is for xorg
[07:26] <taylorjonl> and I can't get a console because Ubuntu doesn't let my CTRL+ALT+F1 get a VT
[07:26] <taylorjonl> well, it is
[07:26] <purplemunkz> hi.  can someone answer a simple question for me?
[07:27] <ikonia> why do you need a console ?
[07:27] <taylorjonl> so I can view the file
[07:27] <taylorjonl> the log ifle
[07:27] <a1> ifconfig: `--help' gives usage information.
[07:27] <a1> itachi@gotei13:~$ iwconfig
[07:27] <a1> lo        no wireless extensions.
[07:27] <a1> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[07:27] <a1> eth0      no wireless extensions.
[07:27] <ikonia> and you don't need to start x to read a file
[07:27] <a1> sit0      no wireless extensions.
[07:27] <a1> sit0      no wireless extensions.
[07:27] <pike_> purplemunkz: ask away someone will answer
[07:27] <taylorjonl> ya, I need a VT
[07:27] <ikonia> no you don't
[07:27] <taylorjonl> how then?
[07:27] <ikonia> taylorjonl: if X works - you can use an xterm to view the log, if X doesn't work - you should be at a console anyway and you can view the log
[07:28] <taylorjonl> lol
[07:28] <purplemunkz> I need to set a specific program to start automaticaly when my ubuntu server starts, but I'm not exactly sure how to go about it.   I'm new to ubuntu.   I'm using Edgy Eft (6.10) server w/out any gui.
[07:28] <taylorjonl> If I start X then it overwrites the Xorg.0.log file that has teh failur information
[07:28] <taylorjonl> and if X fails it falls back to GDM for another attempt
[07:28] <] -[erbie> hi all
[07:28] <gluglu> a1, hum, you've removed the ndiswrapper stuff ?
[07:28] <taylorjonl> over and over again
[07:28] <heapme> unless hes in x and it doesnt work and wont let him get to his vt either, in which case he needs to try to regain control of the keyboard by pressing alt+printscreen+r and then trin alt+fn
[07:28] <a1>  gluglu, u there ?
[07:28] <ikonia> taylorjonl: then X isn't failing
[07:29] <ikonia> if it starts gdm - X has started
[07:29] <ikonia> its not an X problem
[07:29] <taylorjonl> no, Xgl is failing
[07:29] <taylorjonl> Xgl is a specialized version of X
[07:29] <gluglu> a1, yes. what about ndiswrapper ?
[07:29] <ikonia> then why are you looking at xorg.0.log ?
[07:29] <heapme> taylorjonl i had the same thing happen with my kde. kdm starts but not kde
[07:29] <a1> gluglu, i trying to remove it now
[07:29] <taylorjonl> What file will it log to then?
[07:29] <heapme> and i'm still tryin to figure out why :/
[07:29] <ikonia> xgl is not a version of X
[07:30] <ikonia> taylorjonl: Xorg.0.log is for the x server - not the xgl server
[07:30] <] -[erbie> need a little help with edgy... I'm a newbe
[07:30] <] -[erbie> how do I prevent linux from mounting a partition on a removable disk?
[07:31] <] -[erbie> I have a usb disk with 3 partitions... I want ubuntu to mount the ext3 partition only
[07:31] <heapme> /etc/fstab?
[07:31] <gluglu> a1, otherwise, try "lspci" and check if your card is in there
[07:31] <gluglu> a1, I got this : 05:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)
[07:31] <] -[erbie> heapme: /etc/fstab does not lists partitions on ra removable... or does it?
[07:31] <taylorjonl> Ok, then anyone know where Xgl logs to?
[07:31] <heapme> dunno i'm not in linux right now :[
[07:32] <ikonia> taylorjonl: read the wiki
[07:32] <ikonia> it tells you
[07:32] <] -[erbie> heapme: thnx btw
[07:32] <a1> glglu ok
[07:32] <ikonia> you set up an alternate xorg log in the startup script
[07:32] <purplemunkz> how do i go about adding a program to my edgy eft startup scripts so that it starts automaticaly each time the system boots?  the instructions for the program says to run "/sbin/chkconfig --add (program name)" but I'm not finding "chkconfig" as a valid app on my edgy install?
[07:32] <asfalt> purplemunkz maybe /etc/rc.d/rc.local ?
[07:33] <matason> How do I mount a shared folder on a Windows PC? - it's on a fat32 partition
[07:33] <BTR> ameyer: Shall we try the remote desktop?
[07:33] <purplemunkz> hmm ok.   I'll check that out
[07:33] <matason> something like mount /ip address/shared /mnt?
[07:34] <ikonia> matason: do you have samba installed
[07:34] <purplemunkz> hmm.. wait..  my /etc/ folder doesn't have a rc.d folder.  it does have an init.d folder (/etc/init.d), are those the same?
[07:34] <asfalt> purplemunkz no i don't believe they are, scrap that idea then, sorry, i am not sure
[07:34] <NoEvidenZ> !wifi
[07:34] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:34] <matason> ikonia: Yes but that's not working for some reason...
[07:34] <NoEvidenZ> Got myself running Feisty with Beryl now. I'm stoked.
[07:34] <asfalt> i never used this init.d type of init just rc.d style
[07:35] <ikonia> matason: have you configured it ?
[07:35] <pike_> purplemunkz: you could just add a command to end of /etc/init.d/rcS i guess that might be easiest
[07:35] <BTR> NoEvidenZ: Stoked?
[07:35] <ikonia> and you need to do mount -t smbfs so it knows to use samba
[07:35] <a1> gluglu, its on the list '
[07:35] <NoEvidenZ> BTR: Happy.
[07:35] <matason> ikonia: Yes and it's been working in the past
[07:35] <BTR> :)
[07:35] <NoEvidenZ> Though it's not detecting my wireless network card.
[07:35] <purplemunkz> ok, so the app that I am trying to run is "ddclient" (dynamic dns update deamon).    anyone have any experience with this kinda thing?
[07:36] <ikonia> purplemunkz: make it part of the dhclient script
[07:36] <J_P> hi all
[07:36] <] -[erbie> how do I prevent linux from auto-mounting a partition on a removable disk?
[07:37] <kazuka> hi
[07:37] <purplemunkz> is dhclient related to dhcp?   I'm using a static IP behind a firewall, with the ports for the services running on my edgy server forwarded to the static ip via the hardware router.
[07:37] <a1> gluglu, i see ing the card
[07:37] <a1> gluglu , from lspci now what ?
[07:37] <J_P> people, are there one site to find packages for ubuntu like as apt-get.org for debian  ? becouse ubuntu 6.10 don't have pgfouine in universe or multiverse.. :-(
[07:37] <ikonia> if your using a static ip - why dynamic dns updates ?
[07:37] <gluglu> a1, iwconfig still not working ?
[07:37] <burepe_> can someone tell me if this works http://124.96.9.155/test.php ?
[07:38] <ikonia> J_P: no - its done on online repo's
[07:38] <gluglu> burepe_, it does
[07:38] <ikonia> burepe_: yup
[07:38] <purplemunkz> my dsl connection is DHCP, but my server is sitting behind a firewall that is connected to the dsl...   so, my dsl address changes every so often, but my server is assigned a static ip (NAT)..
[07:38] <burepe_> gluglu: thanks. Is that work around so I can see it on this comp hard?
[07:38] <a1> o        no wireless extensions.
[07:38] <ikonia> purplemunkz: so again - why do you need a dynamic dns client ?
[07:38] <a1> th0      no wireless extensions
[07:39] <a1> sit0      no wireless extensions.
[07:39] <ikonia> a1: are you STILL having this problem ?
[07:39] <ikonia> you've been at this for days
[07:39] <burepe_> ikonia: thanks. Is that work around so I can see it on this comp hard?
[07:39] <a1> gluglu, u saw ?
[07:39] <ikonia> burepe_: shouldn't be hard at all
[07:39] <a1> ikonia, yes
[07:39] <sc4ttrbrain> burepe_: use proxy to browse it
[07:39] <gluglu> a1, ok if ur using gnome, go in System > Administration > network
[07:40] <a1> k
[07:40] <burepe_> ikonia do you kno a place I can find directions to do that?
[07:40] <J_P> ikonia: what repos ?
[07:40] <burepe_> sc4ttrbrain: how do I do that? I mean, what is a proxy?
[07:40] <sc4ttrbrain> google that :)
[07:41] <a1> gluglu, ok
[07:41] <xkcd> Haha, I just went to play a video in Firefox, and the whole browser just vanished, and then the video started playing all ghost-like.  It's on a loop now, and I can't find the process that's playing the audio (no video visible anywhere).  Firefox is dead, only my terminals and gaim are opened.
[07:41] <ikonia> burepe_: you should just be able ot see it
[07:41] <n30n> OMG I FINALLY GOT WIRELESS TO WORK ON MY ACER LAPTOP
[07:41] <a1> gluglu, then what
[07:41] <ikonia> what happens when you try
[07:41] <n30n> Ok sorry... I was excitd
[07:41] <NoEvidenZ> Does Feisty support madwifi out of the box?
[07:41] <gluglu> a1, can u see something about network connection, wireless or ... ?
[07:41] <xkcd> Okay, it was the totem-mozilla-v thing.  No more ghost in the machine.
[07:41] <sc4ttrbrain> xkcd: type top on the terminal
[07:41] <purplemunkz> my DSL modem is pulling an dynamic IP from my ISP.    I have the ports that the services on my server are running on forwarded from my hardware router to my edgy server static ip.
[07:41] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Yeah
[07:42] <burepe_> ikonia: iI get an error that says "Unable to connect
[07:42] <burepe_>

[07:42] <burepe_> 
[07:42] <burepe_> Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 124.96.9.155."

[07:42] <burepe_> sorry
[07:42] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: thanks
[07:42] <ikonia> 2 minutes please, just eating
[07:43] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Yep, im trying to find where i read that to conferm ^.^
[07:43] <] -[erbie> ok folks. bbl
[07:43] <sc4ttrbrain> burepe_: looks like u havent set dns server
[07:43] <purplemunkz> so, I need the dyndns client in order to continuosly update my dynamic dns hostname (host.dyndns.org) with my current (often changing) DLS dynamic IP address.
[07:43] <a1>  gluglu, is there light on my laptop for the wifi have to light up ?
[07:43] <kritzstapf> is there a programm for viewing dvb-t-tv which has a more comfortable OSD than kaffeine?
[07:43] <a1>  gluglu, when it workin g ?
[07:43] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: I'm trying to find my network card. :P Feisty doesn't detect it.
[07:43] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: What kinda card
[07:43] <sniper> hello
[07:44] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: WPN311, atheros based. AR5212
[07:44] <burepe_> sc4ttrbrain: I am doing a faq and I just got to checking the php section. I did this all before and php didn't work so I just wanted to check that first off.
[07:44] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: I just spend the last 12 hours figuring out ubuntus weird wireless setting up
[07:44] <stefg> NoEvidenZ: feisty support is in #ubuntu+1
[07:44] <gluglu> a1, of course, you have to use a kind of button to make the wifi work
[07:44] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: alright dude hold on im getting the link for what i used
[07:44] <sc4ttrbrain> burepe_: cant u acces it on localhost
[07:44] <sniper>  how do i install a dev.tar.gz
[07:44] <NoEvidenZ> stefg: Sorry.
[07:44] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Edgy?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDriver%29
[07:44] <burepe_> oh
[07:44] <burepe_> thanks
[07:45] <sc4ttrbrain> is feisty good enough to test?
[07:45] <sc4ttrbrain> dont thinkso
[07:45] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: I could walk you through it if you would prefer
[07:45] <J_P> hi all, I come back :-)
[07:45] <J_P> ikonia: what repos ?
[07:46] <pigor> SOS: sudo does not work anymore. i have not changed my password but i always get: "Sorry, try again."
[07:46] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: I'm not using a broadcom chip though..
[07:46] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: ACtually that might only work with board com
[07:46] <ikonia> J_P: the ubuntu ones, setup with each install
[07:46] <stefg> pigor: CAPS ?
[07:46] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: Not a problem. I'll go hunt down something else. Thanks anyway. :P
[07:46] <TheGateKeeper> !sudo
[07:46] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:46] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Hold on theres fwcutters for other stuff too
[07:46] <n30n> !wireless
[07:46] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:46] <pigor> stefg: no
[07:47] <sniper>  how do i install a dev.tar.gz
[07:47] <ikonia> sniper: untar it see whas inside it
[07:47] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Do you have ndiswrapper installed?
[07:47] <pike_> sniper: untar and uncompress  first so tar xfvz file.tar.gz
[07:47] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: Not yet. I was just going to.
[07:48] <phr34ck> Hey, I copied all the font I got from my Microsoft windows. Where should I paste them, in order to use them on Ubuntu ?
[07:48] <purplemunkz> ok, I'll ask again :)     can somebody tell me which file on an edgy eft lamp server install I should add applications to for auto startup when system boots?   I've already looked for /etc/rc.d/init.d and it doesn't exist (however, /etc/init.d does exist). and the /sbin/chkconfig program that the setup instructions reference doesn't exist?
[07:48] <sniper> what is the command to untar and uncompress would it be dpkg
[07:48] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.8
[07:48] <ikonia> no
[07:48] <purplemunkz> tar xzvf (filename) works for me
[07:49] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Assuming you have edgy
[07:49] <pike_> sniper: then go into the folder that is uncompressed and take a look at the readme or install text files
[07:49] <ikonia> sniper: if you don't know that level of basic commands you shouldn't be trying to build software
[07:49] <stefg> pigor: are you (still) a member of group 'admin?'... Edited the /etc/sudoers ?
[07:49] <ikonia> no offence intended
[07:49] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Or the newest release one, idr remember if its called edgy or not
[07:49] <pike_> sniper: the command i mentioned above
[07:49] <alecjw> hi. anyone know of any music score diting programs other then rosegarden?
[07:49] <pike_> sniper: what are you trying to install? are you sure its not in the repos?
[07:49] <purplemunkz> sniper: "tar -xzvf filename.tar.gz" ..
[07:49] <sniper> sorry newbie and amsn whats to upgrade
[07:49] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: do NOT do ndiswrapper -m untill you find and install a .sys file
[07:50] <ikonia> sniper: amsn is in ubuntu repo
[07:50] <pigor> stefg: hmm .. i have just set my users passwd .. and now it works again -- perhaps an intrusion?
[07:50] <purplemunkz> or you can use apt-git install if the app is available in the repo.   or possibly use dpkg
[07:50] <purplemunkz> oops..  "apt-get install" **
[07:50] <stefg> pigor: that's worth a look
[07:50] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: Ok, thanks.
[07:50] <sniper> amsn-095 is but not the upgrade -096
[07:50] <n30n> What is the difference between cp and mv? I never understood
[07:50] <ikonia> sniper: why do you need to go to 0.96 ?
[07:50] <ikonia> n30n: copy and move
[07:50] <alejandro_> I made a post in ubuntuforums and I was wondering if any of you might know about this: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=331985
[07:50] <Arigato> how do I perform a CRC checksum?
[07:50] <ikonia> Arigato: on the kernel by any chance ?
[07:51] <alecjw> n30n: cp copys, preservinbg the original copy, mv moves or renames, removing the original copy
[07:51] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Np, i had SOOO much trouble with wireless i almost shot myself. Seriously. I want to help anyone i can cuz... I hated it
[07:51] <n30n> alecjw: Ah i see/
[07:51] <Nvening> When i create flac files with sound jucer, are they automatically gap free?
[07:51] <sniper> dont know i thought it needed it to be im still in the windows mindset that everything needs to be upgraded and use more memory
[07:51] <Arigato> ikonia: nope, it's just a video file.
[07:51] <ikonia> sniper: no leave it on 0.95
[07:51] <sniper> ok
[07:52] <ikonia> Arigato: ahh fair enough
[07:52] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: I've been working on it for a while too. Though I started in Dapper.
[07:52] <ikonia> Nvening: its in the juicer preferences
[07:52] <ikonia> I think you get set it with/without gap
[07:52] <purplemunkz> speaking of wireless.    anyone know if there has been any "broadcomm" drivers released for the WMP11 liynksys (v1.4) wireless card?    I haven't tried to set this card up in so long, and as I remember linksys wasn't very forthcoming with hardware details in the past.
[07:53] <ikonia> purplemunkz: broadcom still = a pain
[07:53] <purplemunkz> meh
[07:53] <sniper> im trying to learn those things i just swithched from windows to ubunu , and i like what i see. what distros do you guys use is all ubuntu here
[07:53] <burepe_> In this command I am not sure if I am supposed to put in my password. And if so where?  mysql> UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('new-password') WHERE user='root';
[07:53] <Nvening> i cant see it as just an option, it hasnt got anything to do with the gstreamer pipeline has it?
[07:53] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: It's agervating isn't it.
[07:53] <alecjw> are there any non-qt versions of rosegraden and noteedit?
[07:53] <ikonia> sniper: its ubuntu support - so its ubuntu in here
[07:54] <sniper> cool
[07:54] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: I ended up finding out i messed something up in the very beggining and had to delete something i forgot i did
[07:54] <pike_> sniper: ubuntu is my distro of choice for alot of reasons i also really like freebsd but thats a different animal
[07:54] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: ><

[07:55] <alecjw> anyone?
[07:56] <Alzi2> When I try to install Ubuntu on my laptop, it says "Failure to extract required packages. This will be re-done five times"...
[07:56] <Alzi2> Can anyone help me?
[07:56] <phisquare> burepe_, where it says new-password, that's where you type the new root password you want
[07:56] <alecjw> Alzi2: check the disk for errors
[07:56] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: You could try to beta verson of Feisty. but i would have to advise you know what your doing with linux. Otherwise you might end up having to trash the system
[07:56] <burepe_> phisquare: thanks :)
[07:56] <purplemunkz> Alzi2, damaged install media?
[07:56] <n30n> THe os anyway
[07:56] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: I dunno.
[07:57] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: I am using Feisty. :P
[07:57] <Alzi2> Guys, i just know that i installed a new kernel using arch linux, and it was done and i rebooted, and everything was gone. Couldn't find init... the harddisk wasn't there anymore
[07:57] <purplemunkz> any scratched on the disc?   is it a burned copy?  if so, it's possible some corruption occured in the write process.    I see it quite a bit on one of my machines that I have overclocked beyond the limit, lol..
[07:57] <Maracas> Hi folks. I'm trying to unpack a file (vdr-dvd-0.3.6_b03.bz2). It unpacks alright with bunzip2, but the result is one file named vdr-dvd-0.3.6_b03. No directories or files, and in the vdr-dvd-0.3.6_b03-file I can see the files that should be extracted (Makefile, History, and so on). Any particular flag I should use with bunzip2, or any other program I should use to unpack the vdr-dvd-0.3.6_b03-fil
[07:57] <Alzi2> But, guys, the installer of Ubuntu HAS extracted stuff, but stopped at a certain point
[07:57] <Maracas> e? Help appreciated!
[07:57] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Oh really? Well, you should be working with that card then. Try reinstalling madwifi
[07:57] <enrico_> i hate ubuntu now....
[07:58] <n30n> enrico_: why
[07:58] <regeya> Alzi2: wait, are you using arch linux or ubuntu??? I'm confused...
[07:58] <enrico_> a disaster my first installation!!
[07:58] <Alzi2> regeya: I WAS using Arch until it broke
[07:58] <regeya> enrico_: chill.  I hated slackware when I was first started out.
[07:58] <regeya> gah.  colloquy makes too much noise.
[07:58] <dv_> I hope ubuntu uses pulseaudio instead of esd soon
[07:58] <burepe_> How do you get out of the mysql prompt
[07:59] <regeya> wanna hear something lame?  adiumx is based on gaim, but has no irc support ('irc is not im')
[07:59] <phr34ck> Hey, I copied all the font I got from my Microsoft windows. Where should I paste them, in order to use them on Ubuntu ?
[07:59] <burepe_> !fonts
[07:59] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[08:00] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: I looked in the log terminal (VT4) and it gives me these errors: I/O error, dev hda, sector OMGTHISISATOOLONGNUMBERPLEASEDONTDOTHISTOMEKTHXBAI
[08:00] <phr34ck> burepe_, I'm already there, but I couldn't figure it out.
[08:00] <phr34ck> That's why I'm asking here.
[08:00] <burepe_> oh sorry
[08:00] <pike_> phr34ck: take a look at /usr/share/fonts/ directory
[08:00] <stefg> Maracas: it's prolly a bz2-compressed tar-archive, so you uncompressed, but didn't untar now
[08:00] <purplemunkz> wtf?  lol "omg this is a tool on gnu mber? please dont do this to me kthxbai"?
[08:01] <phr34ck> pike_, and then?
[08:01] <phr34ck> where should I put the fonts I got ?
[08:01] <phr34ck> and is there any config. changes I need to make ?
[08:01] <Maracas> stefg - I'll give it a shot, though the tar-extension is missing...
[08:01] <NoEvidenZ> n30n: Should be, but it's not. =/ I'm gonna try ndis first, if that doesn't work then i'll go for madwifi
[08:01] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: "omg this is a too long number, please don't do this to me kthxbai"
[08:01] <purplemunkz> oh lol ..
[08:01] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Used it as a number replacer ^^
[08:01] <purplemunkz> I've never seen that
[08:01] <purplemunkz> ahh  got ya
[08:01] <Alzi2> LOL
[08:01] <phr34ck> hahah
[08:01] <EdgeT> Hey guys
[08:01] <Alzi2> you actually thought the computer gave that message?
[08:01] <n30n> NoEvidenZ: Good plan
[08:02] <EdgeT> Is there any way to downgrade Ubuntu ?
[08:02] <jrib> !downgrade | EdgeT
[08:02] <ubotu> EdgeT: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[08:02] <beoba> hi, are there mirrors to us.archive.ubuntu.com? getting slow downloads from there today
[08:02] <IcemanV9> kthxbai = [o] k thx bai
[08:02] <jrib> beoba: sure, choose any other two letter country code
[08:02] <Music_Shuffle> beoba, change the country code.
[08:02] <n30n> EdgeT: Hi
[08:02] <purplemunkz> eh, the bong got the best of me.
[08:02] <EdgeT> n30n, Hi lol
[08:02] <purplemunkz> anyways. back to the subject at hand. :)
[08:02] <beoba> k
[08:02] <EdgeT> jrib, So we can't I guess?
[08:02] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Yeah, so..
[08:03] <Maracas> stefg: OK, that's it. Left my brain on the other side of New Year's Eve! Cheers
[08:03] <jrib> EdgeT: not really, you can try but most likely you will end up having to reinstall
[08:03] <zack> i installed zsnes from the .deb file, but where did it install to? i want to make a link on my desktop
[08:03] <Alzi2> OMGWATTEHEKISRONGWITMAHPCOMG <-- I love faking that language.
[08:03] <EdgeT> Crap
[08:03] <EdgeT> jrib, This 6.10 is kinda ... weird
[08:03] <xtknight_away> my jibberish decoder is slow today
[08:03] <jrib> EdgeT: in what way?
[08:03] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: "Oh my god what the heck is wrong with my PC oh my god"
[08:03] <EdgeT> jrib, It doesn't even switch to headphones
[08:04] <EdgeT> jrib, I mean, the sound's still on the laptop's speakers
[08:04] <purplemunkz> so, it looks like it's saying that there are some corrupted / bad sectors on the device /dev/hda (hard disk A)
[08:04] <zack> i installed zsnes from the .deb file, but where did it install to? i want to make a link on my desktop
[08:04] <regeya> whee.
[08:04] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Uh-oh...
[08:04] <EdgeT> jrib, When I get some headphones  or external speakers in
[08:04] <purplemunkz> did you format the drive before attempting the install?
[08:04] <Alzi2> Baaaaaaaaad news!
[08:04] <EdgeT> jrib, It's just weird
[08:04] <zack> oh nevermind
[08:04] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: No, because Windows is on the other side of it.;
[08:05] <purplemunkz> well, wait..    if windows is on the other side, you have two partitions?   or are you trying some funky dosbox install shiz?
[08:05] <EdgeT> jrib, And it's kinda getting on my nerves, I prefered the 6.06
[08:05] <jrib> EdgeT: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/37055
[08:06] <EdgeT> jrib, Plus, the new gaim sux
[08:06] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Two partitions, yes.
[08:06] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: If i really have to format my drive.. I have to say byebye to good ole windows
[08:06] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: The thing is..... this whole thing happened when i pressed the 'update' button on my computer (figuratively speaking)
[08:07] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: In Arch Linux, that was.
[08:07] <Aggrav8d> hello, where would I go to fix a routing problem?  my router lets everyone outside the lan see our sites, but doesn't let anyone inside.
[08:07] <purplemunkz> ok, so you should be able to format the partition that the linux install is going to be placed on using the EXT3 file system (you'll want an at least 1 ext3 file sytem pointing to / and at least 1 swap type partition).
[08:07] <PPAAUULL> How would I change the permission of the contents of a folder?
[08:07] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: No, i think the hard drive is doomed
[08:07] <Alzi2> Lemme check
[08:07] <alecjw> PPAAUULL: use chmod and chown
[08:07] <jrib> PPAAUULL: with chmod, what folder?
[08:07] <purplemunkz> yeah, sounds kinda like it...    do you ever hear any noises sounding a like a pin or needle, or "head" dropping? lol..  that's usually the first sign something is going on..
[08:08] <narko> hello, does somebody use trickle, a bandwith shaper? -d rate doesnt work, maybe because of that message "trickle: Could not reach trickled, working independently: No such file or directory"?
[08:08] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Oh, dang, GRUB is broken too, so i can't check
[08:08] <PPAAUULL> it is a game folder and the game needs to be run as root otherwise it gives me errors so I want to change the permission of the folder contents
[08:08] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Weeeeeeeelllllll..... not in that laptop. But yeah, in the PC i am using now...
[08:08] <alecjw> PPAAUULL: chmod is hard to explain. type "man chmod" in a teminal and it will tell you how to use it. chowin is just "chown <user> <file>"
[08:08] <EdgeT> jrib, Where is the option plz?
[08:08] <purplemunkz> ouchies.    so grub is broken as well, which means you can't even get to yur windows partition at bootup now?
[08:08] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: On this PC, sometimes, when i turn it on, it makes a HUGE humming noise that makes me jump every time (out of shock)
[08:09] <jrib> EdgeT: option for what?
[08:09] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Yep.
[08:09] <alecjw> PPAAUULL: it's very unwise to give people write access outside their /home directories. just run it as root
[08:09] <pike_> PPAAUULL: are you sure you didnt accidently run it with root perm the first time and now its giving you those errors? if thats the cast chown -R username /gamdirectory
[08:09] <EdgeT> jrib, The "headphone jack sense" option
[08:09] <purplemunkz> do yourself a favor, lol.   goto acronis.com and grab the acronis disk director suite..   you can do some amazing things with it when it comes to filesystem / boot sector repairs.
[08:09] <borg> i dont have a system speaker, how do i make gnome beep infinitely when a window calls for a system beep?
[08:10] <Alzi2> purplemunkz: Acronis server is down
[08:10] <jrib> EdgeT: I know as much as you, only that it is in gnome-volume-control
[08:10] <purplemunkz> once you got that, create an emergency recovery CD using the disk director boot cd creation tool
[08:10] <PPAAUULL> I had to install it as root and then it gave the files root access no one else so if I start it as a user it can not check files when I play online and I can not change the settings and such
[08:10] <purplemunkz> yeh, knew this wasn't going to be easy.. lol.
[08:10] <EdgeT> jrib, Crap
[08:11] <EdgeT> jrib, Well thanks
[08:11] <jrib> EdgeT: it may be somewhere else in edgy.  That bug report seems to be from dapper
[08:11] <purplemunkz> or google search acronis..  it may not actually be acronis.com
[08:11] <EdgeT> Oh crap
[08:11] <pike_> PPAAUULL: just chown it is easiest. sudo chown username whatever  add the -R if its a directory or has subdirectories
[08:11] <Alzi2> Backup software for data backup and disaster recovery - Acronis
[08:11] <Alzi2> Acronis data backup and disaster recovery software helps you to back up hard disk drive files, provides system disaster recovery, creates image drives.
[08:11] <Alzi2> www.acronis.com/ - 32k - 4 jan 2007 - In cache - Gelijkwaardige pagina's
[08:12] <EdgeT> jrib, That's just great, since I can't seem to find most of the visible properties on Dapper
[08:12] <pike_> PPAAUULL: what game?
[08:12] <purplemunkz> ok, so if acronis is not an obtion...   google "trinity resource kit" (trk)
[08:12] <cooltux> "Ubuntu Desktop Search" is there any such package?
[08:12] <purplemunkz> oh, so the site is up..   look for the "disk director" suite and grab the trial version they got on there..
[08:12] <cypher1> cooltux, beagle ?
[08:13] <EdgeT> jrib, I kinda had it with Edgy, I'mma switch back to Dapper since everything went fine
[08:13] <purplemunkz> the CD that it burns isn't a trial version, even though the program used to create it is.  go figure..  anyways, that CD will save your life.
[08:13] <EdgeT> jrib, At least it did on my old computer
[08:13] <EdgeT> jrib, Thanks for the tip, later dude
[08:13] <jrib> EdgeT: do you have the option under the "switches" tab?
[08:13] <EdgeT> jrib, In the preferences?
[08:14] <jrib> EdgeT: no, after running volume control

[08:35] <a1> can anyone help me install the new Flash player
[08:35] <PPAAUULL> pike_, I have tried getting the opensource driver going but I couldn't get it working besides will it be any better the flgrx?
[08:35] <pike_> PPAAUULL: or forums also are nice for specific issues

[08:35] <wabi> how to change keymap on a ubuntu system?
[08:35] <phr34ck> !!
[08:35] <a1> currently i have no flash in firefox
[08:35] <Lunar_Lamp> edgy running on my laptop, gnome, kopete and amarok "flash" in the taskbar every time I change workspace (e.g. trying to grab my attention) and don't stop until I click on them.  What on earth is going on there?!

[08:35] <Aggort> I need some serious help. If any way possible can someone help me wipe out my hard drive?
[08:35] <retro> @ phr34ck - tried fc-cache ?
[08:35] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, that's fairly simple usually.
[08:35] <a1> ubotu, thanks
[08:35] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[08:35] <phr34ck> what's that ?
[08:36] <a1> ubotu , how do i get backports ?
[08:36] <Aggort> Lunar_Lamp: Through Ubuntu?
[08:36] <Music_Shuffle> Aggort, gparted liveCD and clear the partitions?
[08:36] <pike_> PPAAUULL: not too sure with ati but my understanding was use open source driver if you dont need to game. if you do youre stuck with flaky binary
[08:36] <efbee_> jrib: must have, no results from the dpkg search.
[08:36] <Aggort> Music_Shuffle: Just delete them? Wow... Why did I think it;d be harder than that
[08:36] <ColinT> I get a message that I need to check / install PyQt/Qt. What does that mean
[08:36] <PPAAUULL> pike_, ok thanks. But are you sure there isn't any alternatives?
[08:36] <Aggort> heck I'll try it
[08:37] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, if you're in a real fix, try "rm -rf /" as root (or via sudo).  This will wipe EVERYTHING and you will need to install from scratch.  It's famously the most risky command on linux.
[08:37] <jrib> efbee_: dpkg -S $(readlink -f $(which java))

[08:37] <Aggort> Lunar_Lamp: why is is so risky? I don;t even have Ubuntu instaled yet, and I pretty much ruined my windows partition by resizing it
[08:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about engage - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:37] <pike_> PPAAUULL: check ubuntuforums.org maybe someone has had similar problem. id ebay the card and buy nvidia even if its an older nvidia at least you can rely on it working
[08:37] <phr34ck> Don't you just love the terminal. I just launched Firefox from there, and look at the error I got :
[08:37] <xmOD> can anybody tell me wat the bar at the bottom is?  http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=26448&file1=26448-1.jpg&file2=&file3=&name=nuoveXT
[08:38] <phr34ck> Fontconfig error: "~/.fonts.conf", line 1: XML declaration not well-formed
[08:38] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, oh, right. The command I gave you was a linux command. It's risky because it's so simple to type, but wipes EVERYTHING on all partitions.
[08:38] <PPAAUULL> pike_ Thanks for the help ;)
[08:38] <stefg> xmOD: that's a standard gnome-panel
[08:38] <Aggort> Lunar_Lamp: So it will make my hard drive like new?
[08:38] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, if you want to wipe your hard drive, you should try the suggestion earlier with the livecd.
[08:38] <xmOD> stefg: i know but how did the guy get the mac like bar at the bottom?
[08:39] <Aggort> Lunar_Lamp: Gparted?
[08:39] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, alternatively, when installing ubuntu you can choose to wipe the drive as part of the installation process.
[08:39] <twisties> what command do I use to run a binary install of RealPlayer from terminal?

[08:39] <ColinT> Howe can I get the HP Toolbox installed?
[08:39] <Aggort> Lunar_Lamp: Yea I know, but I need Windows and isn't it wiser to install Windows first?
[08:39] <Lunar_Lamp> edgy running on my laptop, gnome, kopete and amarok "flash" in the taskbar every time I change workspace (e.g. trying to grab my attention) and don't stop until I click on them.  What on earth is going on there?!  It's really annoying.
[08:39] <stefg> xmOD: just make a new panel, bottom-centered, size about 36, no autohide
[08:39] <efbee_> jrib: going to replace with an up-to-date version of sun JDK
[08:40] <Aggort> Lunar-Lamp: I'm a gamer ^_~
[08:40] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, it's generally simple to install windows first, yes.  I think in the windows installation you can chose to install over evertying also :-)

[08:42] <stefg> xmOD: believe me, it's just a stock gnome-panel
[08:42] <phr34ck> same network ?
[08:42] <Aggort>  Lunar_Lamp: So should I wipe the hard drive out with GParted and then install windows and then install Ubuntu? Or Should I install Ubuntu wiping out the hard drive and then install Windows?
[08:42] <pike_> phr34ck: yep same network and looks the same
[08:42] <phr34ck> kewl, thanks.
[08:43] <Music_Shuffle> Aggort, WIndows first, then Ubuntu, or Windows destroys GRUB.
[08:43] <efbee_> jrib: so would i just change the /etc/alternatives/java link to point to the new installed location? or is there more to it?
[08:43] <phr34ck> pike_,  could you tell me how to launch a program from the terminal while keeping it independent from it ?
[08:43] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, do a google search for installing windows after linux.  See if that looks too complicated for you, if so install windows first.
[08:43] <jrib> efbee_: if you use an ubuntu package you can just run 'sudo update-alternatives --config java'
[08:43] <bsdlogical> hello. I'm setting up a Ubuntu thin terminal server for a high school computer lab. I have an AMD64 Opteron processor, but I'm not sure whether I should use Ubuntu in 64-bit or 32-bit mode. Does anyone have any suggestions?

[08:43] <Aggort> thanks
[08:43] <subzero800> anyone: anybody know of a macOSx type dock?
[08:43] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, if you're new to linux - it;s wiser not to install linux first if you want to install windows afterwards.
[08:43] <brutopia> bsdlogical: use 64-bit
[08:43] <jrib> !screen | phr34ck
[08:43] <ubotu> phr34ck: screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[08:43] <phr34ck> What will that do ?
[08:43] <h3xis> phr34ck, do what you said
[08:44] <pike_> phr34ck: what jrib said is best nohup program  you can put an & after or just ctrl-C to cancel once it launches
[08:44] <bsdlogical> brutopia, I'm leaning that way, but I'm worried about not finding the software I need for that architecture
[08:44] <Aggort> Lunar_Lamp: right. Alright, so I use Gparted to clear the ahrd drive then?
[08:44] <brutopia> everything software on the ubuntu repository can be compiled to 64-bit
[08:44] <bsdlogical> everything?
[08:44] <phr34ck> I want to understand ^O|
[08:44] <Lunar_Lamp> Aggort, yeah
[08:44] <alti> Sound Juicer: What do i have to write in Gstreamer-Pipeline after adding the mp3 format? (Ubuntu with Gnome Desktop
[08:44] <phr34ck> pike_,  thanks.
[08:44] <h3xis> phr34ck, it tells an app to create its own process and runs it seperate from the terminal
[08:44] <phr34ck> I see. Thanks.
[08:44] <brutopia> bsdlogical: there's 64-bit versions of most programs and if there isn't you can compile yourself
[08:44] <Aggort>  Lunar_Lamp: ty very much
[08:45] <bsdlogical> alright
[08:45] <cyphase> If I was going to sell a new computer with Ubuntu on it, would I be legally allowed to install the GStreamer plugins in universe?
[08:45] <brutopia> bsdlogical: that's the beauty of open-source
[08:45] <bsdlogical> I understand, thanks :)
[08:45] <bsdlogical> have you had any experience working with 64-bit ubuntu?
[08:45] <Zelda> how do I get thunderbird on my "launch buttons?"
[08:45] <gop> any one here used cubuntu

[08:46] <velle> is it possible to install Ubuntu without a graphical system? The comp will be used as a server, and accessed only via ssh
[08:46] <Music_Shuffle> Yes.
[08:46] <Music_Shuffle> The server install does that.
[08:46] <Music_Shuffle> Lol.
[08:46] <jrib> cyphase: stuff in universe is ok, it's multiverse I would be hesitant about
[08:47] <alti> velle, there is a server-version
[08:47] <Zelda> HEH
[08:47] <brutopia> bsdlogical: there's this advantage too that 32-bit shellcode can't be run on your 64-bit systems and most exploits use 32-bit shellcode since that's more popular
[08:47] <Lunar_Lamp> velle, look for server install
[08:47] <stefg> !server | velle
[08:47] <ubotu> velle: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments. The default install includes a server kernel and no GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current stable version is 6.06 LTS. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/
[08:47] <bsdlogical> heh, I see
[08:47] <bsdlogical> I imagine 64-bit shellcode will come, soon
[08:47] <cyphase> jrib: that's what i thought about multiverse, but with universe i wasn't sure
[08:47] <Lin> Something weird happened 2 me. My sound card stoped to work. My earphone (with microphone) is connected on sound card. All volumes are up. Master/Master Mono, PCM , mic, no channels are mutted. when I speak on mic I can hear my voice (very loud, everything is on eleven ;-) but. No sound is coming from PCM (PCM is not mutted and near maximum ), master is ok too cause i can hear mic return. This happened with someone or my sound card has some problem with PCM?

[08:47] <brutopia> bsdlogical: it isn't any harder to make your code to 64-bit but it prevents most script-kiddies since they can't do it

[08:58] <Jowi> Aggort2, bare minimum is 4gb for root (/) but I would say 6gb to give growth some room.
[08:58] <gop> mobo
[08:59] <Zelda> h3xic: thank you.
[08:59] <Aggort2> Should I create 2 partitions in the windows install or should I create one partition for windows and leave the rest for unallocated space?
[08:59] <Jowi> Aggort2, that 6GB does not include /home btw
[08:59] <pike_> brutopia: try this open the script in a text editor and fix it.  change the very first line #!/bin/sh to #/bin/bash
[08:59] <bepogi> Will Epiphany co-exist peacefully with Firefox if i install it?
[08:59] <Zelda> er h3xis: thanks
[08:59] <twisties> Can anyone tell me how to run a .bin file from terminal!?
[08:59] <h3xis> ;)
[08:59] <theorem71> i cannot access terminal using ctrl-alt-f1 --> f6. Can somebody please help?
[08:59] <pike_> brutopia: er #!/bin/bash
[08:59] <Music_Shuffle> gop, you can find out the motherboard specs from your OEM's page or whatnot, and then go from there.  It should be ok.
[08:59] <h3xis> twisties, it's usually ./<bin>
[08:59] <Music_Shuffle> bepogi, Yes.
[08:59] <tucker> could anyone help me with my wireless driver?
[08:59] <twisties> oh thanks ;)
[08:59] <gop> oh k
[08:59] <twisties> < noooob
[08:59] <h3xis> tucker, what kind of chipset. ive dealt with wireless in linux all week and my brain hurts >.<
[08:59] <brutopia> pike_: I don't have any problems with any scripts
[08:59] <xmOD> h3xis: do u know if theres any application i use to get a mac like panel at the bottom of my desk
[08:59] <gop> Music_Shuffle,  are 320 gig drives good, like if the ubuntu server is kept up 24 /7
[09:00] <asfalt> hey can / partition be resized after the installation? specifically increased in size. say one was to use a 3rd party tool to inscrease the size of / partition, will the system complain on next boot or even find the / partition?
[09:00] <gop> I mean I want as a backup
[09:00] <hjmills> !noob | twisties
[09:00] <gop> on this sytem I found
[09:00] <ubotu> twisties: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[09:00] <mikeconcepts2> h3xix, yes it is, we see it all the time, in xchat you see the text with a preceiding *
[09:00] <pike_> brutopia: you said it couldnt find source command right?
[09:00] <|thunder> xmOD; not yet. just launchers, but soon.
[09:00] <davmor2> Daishi: create one partition it is easier
[09:00] <h3xis> mikeconcepts2, that's a me action. in that case it's /me action
[09:00] <Music_Shuffle> gop, I use a 320 on this machine, and it works just fine. I like it.
[09:00] <zudokai> when i do dkpg-deb -x filename.deb gives me a error with /target folder is needed
[09:00] <tucker> not too sure which chipset it is, its the sitecom wl 151
[09:00] <zudokai> but i just want it in the folder i currently am..
[09:00] <Aggort2> Should I create 2 partitions in the windows install or should I create one partition for windows and leave the rest for unallocated space?
[09:00] <brutopia> pike_: I don't remember being not able to find some commands
[09:00] <mikeconcepts2> h3xis: thank you
[09:00] <h3xis> xmOD, not sure about that but i know you can customize the bottom panel to look like a dock with transparency and such
[09:01] <pike_> brutopia: lol must have been someone else sorry :)
[09:01] <Jowi> asfalt, as long as you keep the number of partitions and their order intact I would see no problem resizing a partition. keep in mind that you can not resize a mounted partition so the root partition need to be resized from a livecd or similar
[09:01] <tucker> h3xis:  not too sure which chipset it is, its the sitecom wl 151
[09:01] <brutopia> pike_: np :D

[09:01] <jonah1980> hey guys, struggling here. got upgraded to feisty and no printers don't work. they used to in edgy, and someone suggested using older kernel but tried some and they don't boot. so what kernel should i use? and why do some say 64bit and some don't. but i'm on amd64 and my edgy version was 64 so i hope i updated to feisty 64 and not 32bit version!!
[09:01] <gop> go thier h3xis
[09:01] <h3xis> why?
[09:01] <gop> it shows how to get a dock
[09:01] <h3xis> ah
[09:01] <gop> it not point and click
[09:01] <h3xis> it wasnt for me :P
[09:01] <gop> it you have to read

[09:02] <hjmills> jonah1980: you cant change from 64bit to 32bit - i tried - its impossible
[09:02] <tucker> h3xis ??????
[09:02] <h3xis> tucker, run lspci -vv and look for your chipset there
[09:02] <Jowi> Aggort2, for the other question it doesn't matter. create two or one plus empty space.
[09:02] <tiede> hi all. Anyone knows what file is present only when an interface is active? for example, if eth0 is active, then the file exist, if it is inactive, then the file is also deleted (kinda like /proc/acpi/BATX/state)
[09:02] <b1f30_w0rk> try this again - trying to upgrade my BIOS with a nice linux project --> http://linux.dell.com/projects.shtml#biosdisk <-- problem is, when i run the script, the script can't find the 'source' command, even run as sudo
[09:03] <xmOD> h3xis: yeah i did that but that panel always stays on top of my windows.. windows dont stretch over it.. any fix to that?
[09:03] <ColinT> Can someone help with command writing in Termina?
[09:03] <tucker> how do i run it, i will need to restart pc to bring up linux
[09:03] <ColinT> Terminal?
[09:03] <jonah1980> so i'm still on 64, that's good ! just dont' know what kernels to have installed. someone said i should go back to edgy version number kernel when printers worked, what kernel is that?
[09:03] <pike_> b1f30_w0rk: type "head scriptname" does it say /bin/sh as first line?

[09:03] <Zelda> why do I get an error when I try to launch terminal?
[09:04] <b1f30_w0rk> pike_: $ head /usr/sbin/biosdisk #!/bin/sh

[09:04] <tucker> where do i go in linux to do it?
[09:04] <pike_> b1f30_w0rk: gksudo gedit scriptname  and change the #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash
[09:04] <h3xis> tucker, in the terminal
[09:04] <tiede> Zelda, try gnome-terminal or xterm terminal by itself refers to nothing
[09:05] <tucker> ok il try find it
[09:05] <tucker> b bk asap
[09:05] <b1f30_w0rk> pike_: you are the shiz
[09:05] <Zelda> well i went to applications then to terminal.
[09:05] <pike_> b1f30_w0rk: worked?
[09:05] <tim167> h3xis: is it at all risky to do that ?
[09:05] <b1f30_w0rk> pike_: i think this will work - thanks for slapping me with the stupid stick  lol
[09:05] <joshua__> what music player app do you folks use?
[09:05] <h3xis> tim167, to do what?
[09:05] <tim167> sudo apt-get remove bugbuddy ?
[09:05] <gop> xmms joshua__
[09:06] <Lunar_Lamp> Zelda, what's the error you get?
[09:06] <h3xis> tim167, i dont know if it's bothering you that much kill it
[09:06] <tiede> hmm.... type Alt+F2 on your keyboard, then gnome-terminal. What happens?
[09:06] <Zelda> Failed to execute child process "gnome-terminal" (no such file or directory)
[09:06] <tiede> @ Zelda ^
[09:06] <tim167> h3xis: yes its annoying, but screenshot shouldnt cras for starters
[09:06] <tim167> *crash
[09:07] <h3xis> tim167, what is bugbuddy?
[09:07] <Zelda> and that was from the applications>accessories
[09:07] <xmOD> how do i get the computer lanucher on desktop?
[09:07] <xmOD> *launcher
[09:07] <tiede> ok. fire up synaptic Zelda. In there, find gnome-terminal, remove it and reinstall it.
[09:07] <Lunar_Lamp> xmOD, right click>add launcher - fill in the details for what you want it to point to
[09:07] <tim167> h3xis: its the default crash-reporting app for ubuntu
[09:07] <tiede> what did alt+F2 do, Zelda
[09:07] <xmOD> i cant do that for compute
[09:07] <xmOD> *computer
[09:07] <Lunar_Lamp> xmOD, what do you mean "computer"?
[09:08] <h3xis> tim167, so remove it. if it causes any problems just reinstall it
[09:08] <Zelda> gets me to run an application
[09:08] <joshua__> is there a songbird ubuntu repo?
[09:08] <tim167> h3xis: screenshot works tho, but after its done its thing, it crashes, and bug-buddy starts crunching my harddrive for 2 minutes
[09:08] <xmOD> the main computer browser.. the one u select from Places
[09:08] <Lunar_Lamp> xmOD, oh, wait - i know what you mean - just drag the icon onto your desktop from there :-)
[09:08] <h3xis> tim167, so dont use screenshot. use the import command
[09:09] <xmOD> got it!
[09:09] <xmOD> damn that was easy!
[09:09] <Zelda> tiede: the package is in green meaning that the application is installed right? I checked reinstall.
[09:09] <tim167> h3xis: can the import command make a .png from a gui ?
[09:09] <h3xis> tim167, it should. give me a second to look it up
[09:09] <tiede> Yes, reinstall it Zelda
[09:09] <Lunar_Lamp> xmOD, hehe - yeah :-)
[09:09] <Zelda> tiede: also alt+f2 runs a terminal like command line thing like you would in windows clicking on "run"
[09:10] <tim167> h3xis: would be great
[09:10] <twisties> Ok, im trying './RealPlayer10GOLD.bin' in a terminal but it sais permission denied?
[09:10] <h3xis> twisties, sudo chmod u+x Real*
[09:10] <Zelda> tiede: how would I have uninstalled that application?
[09:11] <h3xis> tim167, import -w root screenshot.png
[09:11] <twisties> h3xis: Are you able to elaborate a bit please? im pretty new to linux :)
[09:11] <tiede> right click on the file description in synaptic, check reinstall
[09:11] <Zelda> tiede: and now "terminal" doesnt appear in applications>accessories menu
[09:11] <h3xis> twisties, on the command line make sure youre in the same directory as that .bin and run sudo chmod u+x Real*
[09:11] <tim167> h3xis: trying it out...
[09:11] <h3xis> twisties, you need to change user permissions
[09:11] <h3xis> twisties, and that does it
[09:11] <Lunar_Lamp> Zelda, do alt+f2 and type in "gnome-terminal"
[09:11] <twisties> oh. ok then
[09:11] <Lunar_Lamp> Zelda, if that works you can add a new entry
[09:11] <twisties> thanks
[09:11] <h3xis> twisties, work?
[09:12] <tiede> I know. It is uninstalled after all. now, all you have to do is check it to install it again Zelda
[09:12] <twisties> trying now
[09:12] <phr34ck> I need help with Wget please. Anyone?
[09:12] <erisco> I work in my public web folder a lot. When I create a file in it myself, it is under the owner of myself and the group of myself. I need the group to be www-data, and I can do that through the terminal, but I was hoping there would be a GUI way through the file browser. When you right-click on a file you can view its permissions, and you can modify them. You can also modify the ownder and group, but www-data DOES NOT appear as a group under that list. F
[09:12] <erisco> or speed purposes, how can I get www-data to be an option in that list?
[09:12] <Zelda> I checked to reinstall it. and there its still not in there. Ill try again
[09:12] <|stefan|> anyone know if there's any bug with the edgy version of apache2 (2.0.55) mod_autoindex ? i'm getting some strange behaviour with IndexOptions HTMLTable.
[09:13] <hjmills> phr34ck: use man wget
[09:13] <loufoque> I've heard that it's best to use nvidia graphics card rather than ATI ones for linux, especially with beryl and such. Still, can it be more interesting to use a Nvidia Geforce 4 MX 440 (64MB) than an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (128MB) ?
[09:13] <phr34ck> hjmills, I tried but it's very complicated.
[09:13] <tim167> h3xis: can i get import command to take a particular window instead of the whole screen ?
[09:13] <phr34ck> All I want is to use wget to download frostwire ...
[09:13] <tiede> did you click apply, Zelda ?
[09:13] <h3xis> tim167, let me see
[09:13] <Zelda> yes.
[09:13] <Zelda> "changes applied"
[09:13] <phr34ck> What should I do? I tired to copy the link and use it with wget but it didn't work
[09:13] <hjmills> phr34ck: google for help with it - there are plenty of sites - i remember one on a music blog - what are you trying to do with it?
[09:14] <Zelda> there we go.
[09:14] <cyphase> Is it legal to install w32codecs for someone who has a Windows license?
[09:14] <twisties> h3xis: Yep, thanks for that. One more command i've learned ;)
[09:14] <cyphase> In the US
[09:14] <phr34ck> I want to download frostwire, located at: www.frostwire.com
[09:14] <h3xis> cyphase, it's illegal to use w32codecs in the us regardless
[09:14] <hjmills> phr34ck: just find the whole url - http://......html (or whatever it ends in) and use wget <URL>
[09:14] <h3xis> cyphase, but use it anyway.
[09:14] <phr34ck> yeah I tried that, but it didn't work. Don't know why.
[09:15] <cyphase> h3xis: i'm trying to get my dad, who has a computer shop, to start offering ubuntu
[09:15] <pike_> phr34ck: wget http://frostwire.com/download.php?file=http://fuse.frostwire.com/frostwire/4.13.1/frostwire-4.13.1.4.i586.deb doesnt work?
[09:15] <cyphase> h3xis: so i'm trying to figure out how to get the most multimedia support legally for his customers
[09:15] <phr34ck> no, it waited for input from me, but I don't know what I should write
[09:15] <h3xis> cyphase, not going to happen
[09:15] <phr34ck> I resolved the URL and then waited as if I'm suppose to write something
[09:15] <phr34ck> it*
[09:15] <h3xis> cyphase, dont try to be "the good guy" and go by the MPAA's laws.
[09:16] <h3xis> cyphase, if you want a good system, use it
[09:16] <tiede> Does it work now, Zelda ?
[09:16] <cyphase> h3xis: i'm not talking about me. i've got all the codecs installed
[09:16] <pike_> phr34ck: make sure youre in your home dir you dont have write perm to most other directories as user
[09:16] <h3xis> cyphase, i know
[09:16] <Hoag> Is there any such program that can give me alerts with a mesage at a certain time? Eg. at 9:30 "Set the VCR"?
[09:16] <h3xis> cyphase, nobody will know they have it. it's not like theyre going to get tasered and throwin into jail for having w32codecs installed
[09:16] <phr34ck> pike_, let me try again
[09:17] <trev> does anyone know in what directory LAME is located in after its installed?
[09:17] <tim167> how do I grab a screenshot from a specific window only, using the import command (ImageMagick) ?
[09:17] <hjmills> !which | trev
[09:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about which - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:17] <hjmills> trev - use which
[09:17] <trev> ok
[09:17] <phr34ck> It worked, thanks :>
[09:17] <trev> thx
[09:17] <cyphase> h3xis: i agree but he doesn't want to take the chance
[09:17] <tonyyarusso> Hoag: I'm not sure how to do it directly, but it would very easy to set it up semi-manually using cron and zenity.
[09:17] <phr34ck> pike_, thank you man.
[09:17] <h3xis> cyphase, there's a 0% chance it will happen.
[09:17] <pike_> tim167: ive always used gimp for that. not sure how otherwise
[09:18] <h3xis> cyphase, there is no other way
[09:18] <h3xis> cyphase, it's stupid to not install them
[09:18] <trev> hjmills
[09:18] <erisco> where can I get information on the file browser in Gnome?
[09:18] <cyphase> h3xis: maybe you should talk to him. please, please talk to him
[09:18] <cyphase> :P
[09:18] <trev> hjmill:that is awsome,thx,i will remember that command
[09:18] <pike_> phr34ck: np
[09:18] <Hoag> tunyyaruso: Alrighty, cheers. I'll look into it
[09:18] <h3xis> cyphase, bring him in XD
[09:18] <phr34ck> pike_, do you know any articales about security and the like?
[09:18] <tim167> pike_: i want to be able to make screenshots quickly while performing other tasks, starting up Gimp is not an option
[09:19] <phr34ck> I'm connected to the Internet from this box for like a week now and I havn't done anything related to security
[09:19] <erUSUL> tim167: Apps>Accesories>screenshot
[09:19] <tonyyarusso> erisco: What sort of information?  It's name is Nautilus.
[09:19] <cyberfr0g> out of interest
[09:19] <tim167> pike_, erUSUL: there is the PrintScr button, but it crashes EVERY TIME
[09:19] <h3xis> tim167, im still looking i havent forgotten about you lol
[09:20] <pike_> phr34ck: not sure. there is a harden package for  ubuntu you could google for discussions about it also iptables in general.
[09:20] <erisco> tonyyarusso, I need to know how to add user groups to the drop-down menu, under the permissions tab, under the right-click function on a file
[09:20] <tim167> h3xis: ok! :)
[09:20] <tonyyarusso> erisco: You probably need to be a member of those groups?
[09:20] <Falstius> tim167: it crashes?  Did you file a bug? (it works generally)
[09:20] <pike_> tim167: not sure what its mapped to or how to change it in gnome. though i know there is an easy way
[09:21] <erisco> tonyyarusso, er... oh. It is just that, for speed, I want to be able to change a file's group to www-data
[09:21] <Juhaz> h3xis, using, maybe, but american shop distributing them for money is quite a bit more than 0% chance...
[09:21] <tim167> Falstius: yes, and i hate Bugbuddy, because it stalls my system when offering to report the bug
[09:21] <erisco> tonyyarusso, how would I add myself to a group?
[09:21] <Falstius> you could just go to launchpad and do it directly.
[09:22] <h3xis> Juhaz, doesnt matter. nobody will know.
[09:22] <tonyyarusso> erisco: System > Admin > Users and Groups
[09:22] <erisco> tonyyarusso, thank-you :)
[09:22] <Zelda> tiede: thank you I appreciate your help.
[09:22] <tim167> Falstius: I rather want to use keystrokes, much faster then mouseclicks imho
[09:22] <Zelda> tiede: its working.
[09:22] <tiede> you're welcome. Glad to know your problem is solved.
[09:22] <tiede> @ Zelda ^
[09:23] <tim167> Falstius:  or you meant reporting the bug ?
[09:23] <MTecknology> Is it possible to take my windows install to run my Ubuntu install that was installed to the same HD within it?
[09:23] <Zelda> tiede: sorry I had to use the restroom.
[09:23] <xtknight> how do I append an LF and a line of text to a file?
[09:23] <xtknight> (with the terminal)
[09:23] <tiede> No problem Zelda. As long as your problem is solved :D!
[09:23] <h3xis> xtknight, blahhhh > dsfsd.txt i think
[09:24] <h3xis> xtknight, or >> i cant remember
[09:24] <skippy> Mozilla Thunderbird just started saying "Unable to open the temporary file . Check your 'Temporary Directory' setting."  when I try to send an email.  Any suggestions?
[09:24] <erisco> tonyyarusso, no luck : ( the option didn't appear
[09:24] <Juhaz> h3xis, the customers will know. no doubt most of them are dumbasses who don't realize having working stuff out of the box isn't normal, but eventually he's bound to run into someone who isn't as ignorant
[09:24] <skippy> none of the posts on mozillazine.com solved the problem.
[09:24] <pike_> MTecknology: not sure i understand the question
[09:24] <tonyyarusso> erisco: boo...
[09:24] <seanzer> skippy: check ur temporary directory setting then
[09:24] <Falstius> skippy: is your hard drive full?
[09:24] <Zelda> tiede: next question. I have 2 HDDs. One has XP and the other is this of course. Both are primary partitions. How can I get them both to run with out having to open the computer up and change the cable everytime?
[09:24] <h3xis> Juhaz, and? what? are they going to call the cops? the cops will just laugh
[09:25] <seanzer> skippy: make sure it's a dir that you can write to as the user that you're running thunderbird with
[09:25] <skippy> FallenHitokiri, no, plenty of room.  seanzer:  how?  I see no such setting in MOzilla.
[09:25] <erisco> tonyyarusso, I was just *figuring* nautalis had some sort of default list I could edit
[09:25] <h3xis> tim167, wow man i cant find anything on this any luck?
[09:25] <tonyyarusso> erisco: It may.  Not sure where - could try gconf?
[09:25] <Zelda> =-O
[09:25] <seanzer> h3xis: are you a gay?
[09:26] <coma_> a gay
[09:26] <h3xis> seanzer, with you of course
[09:26] <Zelda> seanzer: no.
[09:26] <tiede> well, set one as master, and one as slave Zelda, if you don't have a cable that can do that, then use to cables...
[09:26] <Jazon> hi.  how can i load ubuntu onto this old imac 350 (slot load) ?  I tried booting from a dapper disk (from a linux mag) but it wont .  tries, then ejects the cd... :(
[09:26] <ValMarko>  I just got the cd I requested : Kubuntu 6.06.1 but I'm having problems installing my usb modem (sagem 800 f@st). I used the script ueagle-1.3.sh on Ubuntu 6.10 and it worked well. Could someone help me?
[09:26] <Jazon> urfffff   n/m   its a dvd
[09:26] <seanzer> Zelda: i don't remember adressing you a question
[09:26] <Zelda> tiede: I have them both on the same ide cable. but everytime I want to use either os. I have to switch the cables around
[09:27] <Zelda> seanzer: duh!
[09:27] <trev> does anyone know if automatix installs libmp3lame.so to a different spot than synaptic?
[09:27] <tim167> h3xis: nope, I suspect you have to enter the official title of the window you want to grab, but from gui scripting (on windows) experience i know it can be a hassle to find out the title by which the system recognizes a window...
[09:27] <h3xis> tim167, move your mouse over the window you want to take a pic of and type import screenshot.png
[09:27] <seanzer> trev: can you find out and tell us?
[09:27] <zerosouls> Hey guys, just got ubuntu, i was wondering if anyone can show me personally how to make ubuntu see another part of my hardrive with my music on it
[09:27] <trev> ok
[09:27] <tim167> h3xis: i'll have a go
[09:27] <seanzer> h3xis: lol @ zerosouls
[09:27] <MTecknology> pike_, I have a program that can't be run in Ubuntu... It's a client to connect to an air projector. I need to show off Ubuntu over it. I want to run Windows so I can use the air projector client and then run Ubuntu within it
[09:27] <tiede> hmm... No. just configure grub for that. Use grub on one partition and then refer to the other in there
[09:28] <Zelda> tiede: is there a way that I can have both HDD on the same cable? Do I have to use Ubuntu as master and XP as slave in order for grub to work?
[09:28] <tiede> !grub @ Zelda
[09:28] <ubotu> grub: GRand Unified Bootloader. In component main, is optional. Version 0.97-11ubuntu14 (edgy), package size 359 kB, installed size 764 kB
[09:28] <h3xis> zerosouls, do you know where it's at
[09:28] <tiede> !info grub @ Zelda
[09:28] <tonyyarusso> !fstab | zerosouls
[09:28] <ubotu> zerosouls: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[09:28] <ValMarko> well , I guess i'll try sudo apt-get install kde . Problem solved...
[09:28] <xtknight> sudo echo msr >> /etc/modules    |   why does the line of code on the left fail with 'permission denied' when the one on the right works    |    sudo -H -s; echo msr >> /etc/modules
[09:28] <trev> thats what i've been trying to do,  i think it is a problem with audacity becasause locate libmp3lame.so brings up /usr/lib/libmp3lame.so
[09:29] <pike_> MTecknology: run ubuntu as a virtual computer inside xp? id use vmware workstation through virtualpc from microsoft might be ok.
[09:29] <Zelda> tiede I have grub installed when I installed Ubuntu.
[09:29] <pike_> MTecknology: but thats not really running your current ubuntu install
[09:29] <trev> nevermind its there, but audacity didn't display it but it will use it
[09:29] <MTecknology> pike_, only problem is that both operating systems are on the same partition
[09:30] <faeryNatsuki> hello, i need a little help
[09:30] <h3xis> faeryNatsuki, with?
[09:30] <tiede> It doesn't matter which HDD grub is on, Zelda. As long as you no which number it is, you can configure it in grub. For example, the first HDD is referred to as hd(0,X) the second one (slave) as hd(a,Y) where X and Y are partition numbers
[09:30] <BigToe> CUPS tries to print borderless pages on my printer but my printer doesn't print right up to the edges... how can I set the correct borders?
[09:30] <tim167> h3xis: that just takes the whole screen here , i did : move the mouse over Gaim window (not changing the focus away from terminal) then type imprt screen.png in terminal and wait for prompt to return
[09:30] <h3xis> tim167, hmm
[09:30] <faeryNatsuki> the sound of notifications in KDE applications under gnome does not work
[09:30] <seanzer> and a is 1
[09:31] <h3xis> tim167, i dont know :/
[09:31] <faeryNatsuki> but if I start the KDE control panel and restart the sound system they work
[09:31] <tiede> Zelda, you must have installed ubuntu while the other HDD was out. That is why grun didn't automatically configure the dual-boot for you...
[09:31] <pike_> MTecknology: you might be doing something a little over my head.. ubuntu and xp on same parition? not same harddrive but parition?
[09:31] <Zelda> tiede: so this being on master HDD, its hda1. then the windows hdd would be hdb1?
[09:31] <MTecknology> pike_, sorry, i meant HD
[09:31] <zerosouls> how do i personally msg someone with this program?
[09:31] <BigToe> CUPS tries to print borderless pages on my printer but my printer doesn't print right up to the edges... how can I set the correct borders?
[09:31] <tiede> and in grub, I meand hd(0,X) and hd(1,X)
[09:31] <Zelda> tiede: and yeah thats what I did.
[09:32] <MTecknology> pike_, I just need to run one within the other
[09:32] <xtknight> had to do sudo sh -c "echo msr >> /etc/modules"
[09:32] <zerosouls> how do i personally msg someone with this program?
[09:32] <cablesm102> zerosouls, this isn't the right place for that. Look at your IRC client's documentation
[09:32] <Zelda> tiede: so hd0a is this ubuntu. HD2 would be hd1a right?
[09:32] <iratik> I need to browse the contennts of an apt package without installing it - how do i do this ?
[09:32] <pike_> MTecknology: only way i know from windows is either virtualpc or vmware.  its easier to run xp inside ubuntu imo and vmware server is free to download for linux
[09:32] <hjmills> with windows gvim can you use vim in the dos prompt?
[09:32] <cablesm102> zerosouls, I have no idea what IRC client you're using, and this is a support channel for a Linux distribution.
[09:33] <MTecknology> pike_, i do have vmware server installed on XP - i'll be right back
[09:33] <MTecknology> rebooting
[09:33] <tiede> grub counts HDDs differently, the first one is hd0, the second one hd1, thrid hd2 and so on. There are no 'a' and 'b' in grub
[09:33] <pike_> MTecknology: but if its just one app you might be able to get it with wine and run it from existing xp parition
[09:33] <seanzer> zerosouls: i'm not sure people want you to do things 'personally'
[09:33] <andrew324523> anyone: has anybody here used kiba-dock?
[09:33] <tim167> h3xis: now it worked: apparently you have to change the focus (alt-tab for ex.) and click the mousebutton... that's still a little more effor then simply doing SHIFT+PrintScr tho...
[09:33] <h3xis> tim167, alright, cool
[09:33] <erisco> the "Number View" for file perms in nautilus is in what format?
[09:33] <faeryNatsuki> ok, i ask again, my problem is, i use kopete, k3b and amarok, all the other things are gnome based, gnome sound works ok, amarok music works ok, but notifications, say new message un kopete, or cd burned in k3b don't give a sound
[09:33] <faeryNatsuki> if i start kde sound works
[09:34] <Jazon> cablesm102: it has nothing to do with a client....  /msg nickname message   ** note ** you must have a registered nick on freenode to do this (afaik)
[09:34] <seanzer> tim167: try playing with import -window id
[09:34] <seanzer> and change the id around
[09:34] <tim167> h3xis * alt+PrintSc
[09:34] <faeryNatsuki> and if i copen de control panel of kde in genome i can restart sound and tafter that they work
[09:34] <fbc> anyone know how to get to the disk manager in 6.10???
[09:34] <andrew324523> anyone: where are the program executables in ubuntu (firefox etc)?
[09:34] <h3xis> andrew324523, /usr/bin
[09:34] <userundefine> andrew324523, /usr/bin
[09:34] <BigToe> CUPS tries to print borderless pages on my printer but my printer doesn't print right up to the edges... how can I set the correct borders?
[09:34] <tim167> seanzer: isnt it hard to find out a window's id ?
[09:34] <andrew324523> thx
[09:34] <cablesm102> andrew324523: mainly /usr/bin
[09:34] <hjmills> andrew324523: run `echo $PATH` to find out
[09:34] <cablesm102> Jazon, I thought different  IRC clients used different commands?
[09:34] <faeryNatsuki> andrew324523:  /bin/ /usr/bin, many places
[09:34] <Zelda> tiede: so all i would need to do essentially is configure grub like primary ubuntu HD hd0 and the slave windows HD hd1
[09:34] <Jazon> no.
[09:34] <stefg> faeryNatsuki: KDE uses arts, gnome uses esd... arts only gets started as a side effect if you launch kcontrol
[09:35] <pike_> faeryNatsuki: do you really need the trumpet sound? ;p might try kubuntu on that one for advise
[09:35] <iratik> lol
[09:35] <fbc> anyone know how to get to the disk manager in 6.10???
[09:35] <BigToe> cablesm102, if your client doesn't use /msg... it sucks :P
[09:35] <seanzer> tim167: so?
[09:35] <Jazon>  /join /msg standard
[09:35] <seanzer> tim167: lol, any other options  yet?
[09:35] <maddash> has anyone tried 3ddesktop? it's amazing.
[09:35] <faeryNatsuki> i need to leave the computer burning and hear when it's finished to go back tomcpumpuiter burn other disk and continue away douing other tasks
[09:35] <seanzer> tim167: you can try typing import -window "gaim"
[09:35] <iratik> fbc: system > administration > disks
[09:35] <h3xis> maddash, like 3 years ago XD
[09:36] <cablesm102> maddash, actually, Beryl is amazing.
[09:36] <seanzer> tim167: or import -window "Buddy List"
[09:36] <tiede> Zelda, try the wiki at http://grub.enbug.org/
[09:36] <maddash> h3xis: haha I'm so addicted to switching desktops now
[09:36] <andrew324523> anyone: I want to use Kiba-Dock, I have it installed and working, I just dont know how to add icons
[09:36] <faeryNatsuki> stefg, yes i know it, but dapper have no problem with sound of KDE apps, and edgy does really have
[09:36] <tiede> exactly Zelda
[09:36] <maddash> !beryl
[09:36] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[09:36] <BigToe> CUPS tries to print borderless pages on my printer but my printer doesn't print right up to the edges... how can I set the correct borders? I have the PPD file loaded that I downloaded from linuxprinting.org..
[09:36] <fbc> iratik:  it's not there in 6.10 or maybe wasn't there at all.. I look at the menu manager and it doesn't appear to have been there...
[09:36] <cablesm102> maddash: wait till you try Beryl.
[09:36] <seanzer> maddash: why use 3ddesktop.. it's old
[09:36] <tim167> seanzer: I can indeed Try that, but I'm quite sure that will not work from the first Try in many situations...
[09:36] <h3xis> maddash, yeah i used to amuse myself with it
[09:37] <cablesm102> seanzer, beryl requires custom repos with new gfx drivers. Not very easy to install.
[09:37] <MTecknology> Back, so how do I use vmware server to run an OS on the same hd?
[09:37] <andrew324523> anyone: anybody think they can help me with kiba dock? I dont understand how toadd icons
[09:37] <seanzer> cablesm102: so?
[09:37] <cablesm102> Also tends to not work well on current ubuntu versions
[09:37] <maddash> cablesm102: not unless you're using radeon and all you need is fglrx
[09:37] <seanzer> cablesm102: we don't use things that are cool because they're easy
[09:37] <faeryNatsuki> stefg and i kde sound does not launch as a side effect of kcontrol, i need to manually restart it from the kcontrol... any idea to make i works automatically each time i start gnome?
[09:37] <Zelda> !beryl is cool
[09:38] <andrew324523> anyone: anybody think they can help me with kiba dock? I dont understand how to add icons
[09:38] <xtknight> and how do i remove all lines of text containing "string" in a file?
[09:38] <tim167> seanzer: the title for this window is #ubuntu, lets try import -window #ubuntu ubuntu_scr.png
[09:38] <userundefine> andrew324523, have you tried just dragging icons?  You don't need to spam the chat
[09:38] <amir__> !
[09:38] <stefg> faeryNatsuki: you could try to add artsd to the list of autostarted apps in the gnome session settings
[09:38] <cyphase> andrew324523: just drag icons from the menu
[09:38] <andrew324523> thanks
[09:38] <tim167> import: option requires an argument `-window'.
[09:38] <fbc> how do I bring up the disk manager. I don't have DISK under administration.
[09:38] <faeryNatsuki> i tryied that, but was useless, and i removed arts package
[09:38] <seanzer> tim167: you need quotations
[09:39] <faeryNatsuki> and notifications are working wothout it
[09:39] <cablesm102> fbc: applications>accessories>disk usage maybe?
[09:39] <maddash> sudo free
[09:39] <maddash> oops
[09:39] <seanzer> tim167: worked for me
[09:39] <fbc> cablesm102:  that just the disk usage analyser
[09:39] <iratik> ah.. a break ! how do you peek into the contents of an apt package without installing it ?
[09:40] <maddash> iratik: just open it with package manager
[09:40] <arentoine> Hello, I'm used to press "back" to go to previous WEB page with Firefox.  With XUbuntu, this doesn't work.  Can I have the back key bring me to the previous WEB page in Firefox (2.0)?.
[09:40] <fbc> cablesm102:  I need to mount an ntfs partition...
[09:40] <cablesm102> fbc, do you mean the partitioner?
[09:40] <maddash> iratik: the apt packages come in ".deb"
[09:40] <tim167> seanzer: not for me :/
[09:40] <erUSUL> !ntfs | fbc
[09:40] <ubotu> fbc: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:40] <tim167> seanzer : what exactly did you enter ?
[09:40] <cablesm102> fbc, I don't think that was ever in the installed version.
[09:40] <Zelda> hrmm brb .
[09:40] <seanzer> tim167: in gaim, i have a window named h3xis, i do import -window "h3xis" h3ix.png
[09:40] <maddash> iratik: alternatively, http://packages.ubuntu.com
[09:40] <seanzer> tim167: it works fine
[09:40] <iratik> thanks maddash!
[09:40] <maddash> seanzer: hey leave h3xis alone!
[09:40] <maddash> iratik: np
[09:41] <h3xis> maddash, halppp
[09:41] <cablesm102> fbc, I'm looking up an article on how to do that from the terminal on the Ubuntu wiki
[09:41] <fbc> cablesm102:  how can I add it. I seems a very useful tool..
[09:41] <seanzer> maddash: h3xis is MINE
[09:41] <MTecknology> holy shit... I figured it out, but with 1G ram this is taking a VERY long time
[09:41] <tim167> seanzer: here it took a screenshot from entire screen , i did import -window "#ubuntu" screen_2.png
[09:42] <cablesm102> fbc, look in Synaptic
[09:42] <MTecknology> maybe I need to get another computer just for an extra OS
[09:42] <iratik> can i get a job with ubuntu?
[09:43] <seanzer> tim167: then just look up the pid and use that
[09:43] <h3xis> iratik, no, they have enough fairies working for them as it is
[09:43] <tonyyarusso> iratik: See the employment page on the ubuntu web site
[09:43] <iratik> nuts ... i could just sit in here all day and answer questions -- that would be sweet] 
[09:43] <pike_> MTecknology: if its just one app you might be able to get it with wine and run it from existing xp parition
[09:44] <Cortex> hi
[09:44] <maddash> iratik: sub-avg pay, probably. remember - garbage in, garbage out.
[09:44] <seanzer> tim167: go get xwininfo
[09:44] <pike_> MTecknology: dont know wine very well but i know you can use existing windows paritions to run  from
[09:44] <MTecknology> pike_, I wish... I can't get that program to run under wine
[09:44] <iratik> maddash: is it better than 10$ an hour?
[09:44] <tim167> seanzer: import: no window with specified ID exists `4819'.
[09:44] <Cortex> i've an issue: lspci send nothing
[09:44] <MTecknology> pike_, it won't recognise network devices or capture the screen
[09:44] <h3xis> Cortex, sudo lspci
[09:44] <maddash> iratik: dernos...I'm doing this b/c I'm super bored...
[09:45] <seanzer> tim167: no, i didn't mean that.. u can use the pid and look it up in xwininfo if u have it
[09:45] <Cortex> h3xis, same thing
[09:45] <pike_> MTecknology: download vmware server for linux if ya got the ram. that way you never need an xp parition again :)
[09:45] <maddash> Cortex: sudo lspci returns absolutely nothing?
[09:45] <tim167> seanzer: yes I just found out :p
[09:45] <Cortex> nothing
[09:46] <Cortex> i tryed with -v, -G
[09:46] <pike_> MTecknology: good luck
[09:46] <Cortex> nothing too
[09:46] <MTecknology> pike_, you missed the point... I can't run the program under wine...
[09:46] <MTecknology> the OS that runs it has to be master
[09:46] <maddash> cortex: is it broken?
[09:46] <pike_> MTecknology: vmware nat'd id think would work
[09:46] <tim167> seanzer: then I dont get why import -window "#ubuntu" scr.png returns a full screen shot...
[09:46] <maddash> cortex: I think pciutils requires libpci2 or something
[09:47] <fbc> is there not volume or partition manager on the installed version??
[09:47] <maddash> cortex: lspci -n?
[09:47] <Cortex> ok thank, i'm seeing
[09:47] <MTecknology> pike_, but the prog still couldn't take over the screen from within windows vm
[09:47] <maddash> cortex: np
[09:47] <Cortex> nothing
[09:47] <maddash> cortex: check synaptic for brokenness
[09:47] <iratik> fbc: gksu disks-admin
[09:48] <Cortex> ok thank you
[09:48] <MTecknology> pike_, my goal is to appear to be using just Linux on the computer when I'm projecting it... either that or only be using linux
[09:48] <iratik> MTechnology: Have you thought about a live cd?
[09:48] <fbc> iratik: it says command not found
[09:49] <iratik> gksu ?
[09:49] <tim167> seander: duh, my bad, it does work right, only it takes any other window that is displayed above the requested window into account (I had terminal in screenshot ant thought is was a full screen, but its Gaim with terminal in front of it)
[09:49] <tiede> brb in 30 mns ;)
[09:49] <iratik> fbc does it say "Missing command to run" . "disks-admin: command not found" ?
[09:50] <maddash> 10 different desktops + 3ddesktop + properly edited icewm/preferences = hours upon hours of fun!!
[09:50] <fbc> iratik: sudo: disks-admin: command not found
[09:51] <dusty_> hi. This is a stupid question im sure, but.. Im trying to run a CGI thing on apache 1.3. I have made a directory like /var/www/cgi-bin.
[09:51] <xtknight> bahh...why does this replace /etc/modules with nothing?  if i pipe it to another output file it contains what i expect :/   :   bash -c "cat /etc/modules | sed -e '/msr/d'" > /etc/modules
[09:51] <dusty_> and then I edited the httpd.conf file..
[09:51] <hjmills> is ~/.vimrc the right place for local vim changes?
[09:51] <iratik> dusty_: #apache
[09:51] <dusty_> roger. :) runnin ubuntu. thanks.
[09:51] <iratik> hjmills:  for your user , yes
[09:51] <hjmills> iratik: thanks
[09:52] <boabsta> xtknight, prob because you are catting /etc/modules while overwriting it
[09:52] <MTecknology> pike_, I think I'm going to see if I can full screen a Ubuntu virtual machine and use the windows prog within windows
[09:52] <MTecknology> hopefully doing it over a network
[09:52] <xtknight> boabsta: hm, how do i prevent that?  shouldn't it just cat it, close it, pipe it, and then write it?
[09:52] <boabsta> dont think it does though, output to different file then mv it back
[09:53] <orbital04> Hi, I have Dapper 6.06 and want to create sharedfolder, I've created one with the tool but Windoze machines are denied access due to not having permission....
[09:53] <tim167> but still... being a bit of a efficiency freak about this, : opening a terminal and doing xwininfo...etc, then import -window <window ID> <name of screenshot>.png is less ergonomic then simply doing Alt+PrintSc...
[09:53] <iratik> does anyone know why fbc doesn't have the command disks-admin ? i'm stumped on that one
[09:53] <boabsta> xtknight, i had the same problem in the past - didnt investigate it though
[09:54] <xtknight> boabsta: ah ok, im asking in #linux
[09:54] <boabsta> xtknight, cool - tell us the answer too please :)
[09:54] <iratik> orbital04: what are the permissions of the directory?
[09:54] <erUSUL> iratik: it uses edgy which does not come with it, iirc
[09:54] <dvheumen> hello everyone :). How can I return to the graphical login, after choosing for a console login in the login manager? (I've searched on google, but I just can't find the answer :()
[09:54] <seanzer> tim167: then fix it, alt+prnt scrn does whole screen and shift+alt+prtn scrn doesn active window for me
[09:54] <iratik> ahh...  i had a dapper box next to me --- all my edgies are servers
[09:54] <orbital04> world readable
[09:55] <IceTox> Any known reasons to why ubuntu is going slow? it seems to me - being a newbie - that the cpu is overloaded at all times.
[09:55] <gs_> hello.
[09:55] <iratik> i'm not really sure but doesn't it have to be world executable (i might be wrong)
[09:55] <tim167> seanzer: the prob i have is: screenshot crashes, it does do the screenshot however, but BugBuddy stalls my system every time i use alt+printsc
[09:56] <orbital04> maybe, some of the Samba related docs indicate a password has to be issued for each user wanting access, I want to get away from that
[09:56] <tim167> it says : Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/gnome-panel-screenshot' (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".
[09:56] <fbc> iratik:  how do I find it in synaptics... I've tried different variations...
[09:57] <iratik> fbc: iits not a package
[09:57] <dvheumen> anyone? how can I return to a graphical login after choosing for console login?
[09:57] <h3xis> dvheumen, startx
[09:57] <orbital04> the default directory for sharing is my home directory, which shouldn't be world executable
[09:57] <iratik> erUSUL: whats the command to run disk manager in edgy?
[09:57] <dvheumen> h3xis: tnx, I knew it was something obvious, otherwise I would've found it on the internet :P
[09:58] <h3xis> :P
[09:58] <tim167> dvheumen: this is the internet :p
[09:58] <h3xis> internets, lolz.
[09:58] <xtknight> boabsta: sudo sed -i '/msr/d' /etc/modules
[09:58] <blanky> hey guys my fried installed on a mac and for some reason he doesn't have a desktop, told him to try 'startx' and he said it didn't work, problem is he has wifi internet (wireless), how can he get a connection?
[09:59] <xtknight> boabsta: just needed the -i (it edits a file in-place)
[09:59] <dvheumen> tim167: damn... you're wide awake :P well, I meant I would've found it somewhere else without having to bug you people :P
[09:59] <boabsta> xtknight, aaah cheers - i joined #linux to snoop btw :)
[10:00] <fbc> iratik: crud. Where can I get it...
[10:00] <boabsta> xtknight, will probably come in handy as soon as i forget that too :/
[10:00] <erUSUL> iratik: there is none due to the change in the fstab format (using uuids instead of classic /dev/hdxx for adressing disks)
[10:00] <blanky> anyone? :'(
[10:00] <blanky> I was trying to get my friend to try linux...
[10:01] <iratik> blanky: friends don't let friends get in over their heads
[10:01] <Subhuman> hi, im trying to burn some MP3's to an Audio CD using serpentine , i have the gstreamer-0.8-lame plugin but it still saying that MP3 is an unrecognised format. what gives? is there other packages i need?
[10:01] <h3xis> blanky, it's kind of hard getting wireless to work without a gui
[10:01] <tucker> h3xis:  sorry ive taken so long but internet stopped working
[10:01] <blanky> h3xis: so...what should he do, just reinstall, for the fourth time?
[10:01] <iratik> erUSUL: so if i wanted to divide a data partition into 2 with an gui what command would i run?
[10:01] <Thug-N-Me> hi all
[10:01] <h3xis> blanky, dapper/edgy?
[10:01] <Subhuman> blanky, do you mean how does he get wifi from the command line?
[10:01] <blanky> edgy
[10:02] <h3xis> blanky, what kind of mac
[10:02] <blanky> Subhuman: I guess, anything to get internet access so he can apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[10:02] <tucker> h3xis:  am i right in thinking the chip set is RAlink, it gave me a load of info but not sure which bit it was
[10:02] <boabsta> blanky, not having wireless shouldnt cause him to not have a desktop?
[10:02] <hjmills> can nano do syntax highlighting?
[10:02] <Subhuman> blanky, "iwconfig --help" should tell you all the commands needed to connect to an AP
[10:02] <blanky> boabsta: exactly
[10:02] <blanky> Subhuman: thanks
[10:02] <boabsta> blanky, oh i see now
[10:02] <h3xis> tucker, yes, but i need the model. ralink is good but if you run edgy it should run out of the box
[10:02] <erUSUL> iratik: gparted, but this program was aviable in dapper too the disk manager was not a partitioning tool
[10:02] <blanky> boabsta: for some reason he doesn't have it, so i wanted him to apt-get it but he doesn't ahve a connection
[10:03] <Thug-N-Me> need help installing a package it says "dependency is not satisfiable : xlibs "  xlibs-dev its installed what should i do ?
[10:03] <Subhuman> blanky, you basically need to scan, enter the SSID, make it "managed" mode and it should be set - i jus dont know the commands off by heart.
[10:03] <blanky> h3xis: ppc
[10:03] <iratik> fbc: gksu gparted
[10:03] <tucker> im running ubuntu not edgy, dunno what edgy is
[10:03] <blanky> g4
[10:03] <h3xis> blanky, er...i dont know XD
[10:03] <blanky> Subhuman: thanks, I'll try
[10:03] <h3xis> tucker, edgy is a version of ubuntu
[10:03] <iratik> lol
[10:03] <imbecile> im trying to install kismet but i am pretty new at installing from source I have file extracted to desktop what should i do next?
[10:03] <blanky> Subhuman: can he run ssh so that i can connect, oh no that doesnt make sens duh
[10:03] <marcell_> hello! maybe someone controls my pc from net? :S how can I make it sure?
[10:03] <erUSUL> iratik: there are two different programs... the one that stoped working is disk-manager (used to mount fs and as info tool for disks but not for partitioning)
[10:03] <h3xis> imbecile, read the INSTALL file
[10:03] <iratik> ahhh
[10:04] <iratik> erUSUL: all that stuff is easily done on the command line
[10:04] <tucker> it said, Ralink:unknown device 0401, subsystem: SiteCom Europe Bv: unknown device 9097
[10:04] <tucker> that any help?
[10:04] <Subhuman> imbecile, you will need a package called "build-essential" first
[10:04] <Subhuman> so apt-get that
[10:04] <ColinT> Hi the system ask me for a password for my sudo?
[10:04] <Subhuman> then look at this
[10:04] <iratik> erUSUL: you could make desktop icons to accomplish those tasks
[10:04] <h3xis> tucker, i guess, are you running edgy or dapper?
[10:04] <ColinT> What is that?
[10:04] <Subhuman> !compile
[10:04] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[10:04] <imbecile> ahhh my friend h3xis  thank you.. I got that wireless card issue taken care of
[10:04] <tucker> not sure:S
[10:04] <xtknight> ColinT: same password as for your current account.
[10:04] <boabsta> ColinT, just your login password
[10:04] <h3xis> imbecile, cool
[10:04] <FunnyMan3595> Okay, dummy question here.  I need a runnable (#!) file that uses the command "/usr/local/bin/php -d safe_mode=0 -f FILENAME", but "#! /usr/local/bin/php -d safe_mode=0 -f" doesn't seem to be quite right, it drops me into PHP interactive mode.  What am I doing wrong?
[10:05] <h3xis> !version | tucker
[10:05] <ubotu> tucker: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type 'lsb_release -a' in the Terminal.
[10:05] <maddash> ColinT: ...have you issued "sudo passwd" before?
[10:05] <pike_> marcell_: type 'w' and enter if you see pike_ there youre screwed :)  netstat is handy netstat -a will tell you more that you ever want to know about your comps connections
[10:05] <ColinT> xtknight: thanks
[10:05] <Thug-N-Me> any help ?
[10:05] <imbecile> Subhuman,  thanks ill look for it in synaptic
[10:05] <ColinT> boabasta: thanks
[10:05] <elyon225> ikonia: Just to let you know, I reinstalled and things are working better this time than they were right after my first install.
[10:05] <tucker> il try see if i can find the link on the site i got it from rather than re-start into linux
[10:05] <fredl> anybody know of an application on Linux that creates/edits WSDL for you?
[10:05] <Subhuman> imbecile, may i ask - what is wrong with the version of kismet in the repo anywya?
[10:06] <ColinT> boabasta: and, just another question will the universe/multiverse repositories in Synaptic, be enabled by default?
[10:06] <elyon225> xtknight: And to let YOU know... after my reinstall, I got the extra partition space I needed and all my drives appear to be working now ;)
[10:06] <ColinT> boabsta: thanks
[10:06] <Stormx2> fredl, what is WSDL?
[10:06] <BIGDADDY> hello all
[10:06] <Stormx2> How would I go about defragging a FAT partition from ubuntu?
[10:06] <imbecile> Subhuman,  its in the repo? lol I'll just download that ;P thanks again
[10:06] <boabsta> ColinT, i dont think so
[10:06] <fredl> web service definition language.
[10:06] <ColinT> boabsta: and, just another question will the universe/multiverse repositories in Synaptic, be enabled by default?
[10:06] <maddash> Funnyman3595: nope
[10:06] <BIGDADDY> can some1 help me?
[10:06] <Subhuman> imbecile, no problem :D
[10:06] <elyon225> FunnyMan3595: I missed it.  Could you repeat it, please?
[10:07] <h3xis> BIGDADDY, what
[10:07] <Thug-N-Me> how do i install a deb package ?
[10:07] <maddash> Funnyman3595: repeato por favor?
[10:07] <ColinT> boabsta: so how do I know.?
[10:07] <Subhuman> imbecile, youll prob need to enable universe - have you done that yet?
[10:07] <Thug-N-Me> what the install command
[10:07] <xtknight> elyon225: interesting.  too bad i completely forgot what problems you were having :D
[10:07] <maddash> thug-n-me sudo dpkg -i xxxx
[10:07] <elyon225> Thug-N-Me: Use the package installer ;)
[10:07] <boabsta> ColinT, check /etc/apt/sources.lst
[10:07] <FunnyMan3595> I need a runnable (#!) file that uses the command "/usr/local/bin/php -d safe_mode=0 -f FILENAME", but "#! /usr/local/bin/php -d safe_mode=0 -f" doesn't seem to be quite right, it drops me into PHP interactive mode.  What am I doing wrong?
[10:07] <h3xis> Thug-N-Me, sudo dpkg -i <package>.deb
[10:07] <imbecile> Subhuman,  no how do i do that?
[10:07] <elyon225> xtknight: You helped me compile gparted, remember?
[10:07] <maddash> h3xis: haha I beat you
[10:07] <phixnay> hey, can anybody help me with a screen resolution problem? I can't get 1440x900 to work (nVidia drivers installed correctly, already tried editing xorg.conf, but might have done it wrong)
[10:07] <FunnyMan3595> Catch it that time?  :)
[10:07] <maddash> h3xis: to it
[10:07] <maddash> h3xis: :P
[10:07] <BIGDADDY> i installed ubuntu but i dont see an option to boot it up
 well... w doesn't give any strange information... netstat -a is very-very long :) what do I search for in the results?
[10:07] <Subhuman> tell imbecile about !universe
[10:07] <erUSUL> FunnyMan3595: you may get more help in a php channel... #php
[10:07] <elyon225> xtknight: Then all my removable drives decided to be permanently removed ;)
[10:07] <xtknight> elyon225: yeah i do remember, werent you trying to resize ntfs? oh...thats right..gparted was freezing
[10:07] <Stormx2> FunnyMan3595: Perhaps try the safe_mode=0 in quotes, or even maybe its ="SAFE_MODE ..."
[10:07] <Subhuman> !universe
[10:07] <ubotu> 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
[10:07] <Stormx2> FunnyMan3595: Read the fine manual
[10:07] <Subhuman> imbecile, ^
[10:07] <boabsta> phixnay, thats a strange resolution - maybe your card/monitor doesnt support it?
[10:07] <ColinT> boabsta: So I shall write that command in Terminal?
[10:08] <FunnyMan3595> It's just a scripting question.  If I run the line as given, it works, but the line in the file doesn't.
[10:08] <Thug-N-Me> h3xis thanks
[10:08] <phixnay> boabsta: it works in windows xp
 thanks
[10:08] <elyon225> xtknight: yeah.  Well, its all sorted out now.  But I have a lot of work to do to get everything configured again.
[10:08] <boabsta> ColinT, type "cat /etc/apt/sources.lst" in terminal
[10:08] <imbecile> Subhuman,  I'll give it a go, thanks
[10:08] <FunnyMan3595> Does the whole thing need to be in quotes, maybe?
[10:08] <ben```udm> hello
[10:08] <xtknight> elyon225: well at least you know how to compile now.  or you `should` :P
[10:08] <BIGDADDY> any 1?
[10:08] <tim167> BIGDADDY: did you install it beside another OS ?
[10:08] <myUserName> Can someone tell me why ubuntu is using version 2.00 of the GTK and not the latest version?
[10:08] <boabsta> ColinT, or if you want to edit it type "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.lst" in terminal, edit the file and CTRL-X to exit and save
[10:09] <BIGDADDY> umm well not really it was on 1 of my sata drives
[10:09] <elyon225> xtknight: I have an idea :) ./configure  |  make  |  make install
[10:09] <tucker> h3xis:  this is the copy i downloaded http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download#lts
[10:09] <xtknight> elyon225: yup, sudo on the make install and that's it
[10:09] <tucker> can you tell what version is it on their/
[10:09] <fbc> iratik: sudo: gparted: command not found
[10:09] <ben```udm> can i use this image as a boot cd ? CD Image for desktop and laptop PCs
[10:09] <h3xis> tucker, that's dapper. i know for a fact ralink chipsets work with dapper
[10:09] <elyon225> xtknight: I usually just through sudo in front of everything if it grumbles at me :)
[10:09] <xtknight> elyon225: good policy
[10:09] <BIGDADDY> i have 4 h/d and 2 contain windows xp and the other 2 just files
[10:09] <h3xis> tucker, is it not showing up in your interfaces?
[10:09] <iratik> fbc: what are you trying to do ?
[10:09] <boabsta> elyon225, ./configure && make is better - then do sudo make install ;p
[10:09] <erUSUL> myUserName: afaik it uses, if not the latest, a fair recent version of gtk
[10:09] <Thug-N-Me> whhere do i get xlibs from ?
[10:09] <xtknight> yeah
[10:09] <FunnyMan3595> Basically, it's acting like I'd just run /usr/local/bin/php, without any arguments
[10:09] <elyon225> So now I have a question for everyone here:  What software do you all use to download music?
[10:10] <xtknight> *cough*
[10:10] <xtknight> lol
[10:10] <phixnay> when I tried editing xorg.conf to only use 1440x900, I restarted x and it showed up in 1152x856 resolution, or something like that
[10:10] <tim167> BIGDADDY: if you say you dont see the option to boot up ubuntu, where is it that you dont see it (grub ?)
[10:10] <boabsta> elyon225, i use gtk-gnutella to download free music from the interweb
[10:10] <BIGDADDY> well its when i reboot there is no option just 2 for my windos xp
[10:10] <FunnyMan3595> Could someone even tell me what that darn #! line is called so I can search for help on it?
[10:10] <xtknight> the && operator makes sure the last command succeeds, and then proceeds to the next.  the semicolon operator ignores any errors returned.
[10:10] <Thug-N-Me> whhere do i get xlibs from ?
[10:10] <pike_> marcell_: netstat by itself is a little more managable
[10:10] <tucker> h3xis, when i go into network, it has wireless network, i go into properties and i can see my network, called sitecom, and when i enter in the hex. password it completly freezes linux, i cant do anything except restart the pc
[10:10] <myUserName> erUSUL, I am trying to build the phpGTK and it requires a version 2.6 or greater and it is failing due to ubuntu being out of date also i searched the packages and cant find anything referring to greater than 2.0 do you know whats with this??
[10:11] <xtknight> streamtuner is a really cool program for listening to net radio
[10:11] <erUSUL> myUserName: apt-cache show libgtk2.0-0 | grep Version
[10:11] <elyon225> xtknight: Isn't it kind of dangerous to do it like that, though?
[10:11] <boabsta> FunnyLookinHat, shabang
[10:11] <pike_> marcell_: man netstat   lots and lots of options
[10:11] <h3xis> tucker, is your router using WEP?
[10:11] <xtknight> elyon225: like...what?
[10:11] <tucker> yes
[10:11] <ColinT> boabsta: Nothing happens when I type . And all command is entered twice on separate rows.
[10:11] <elyon225> xtknight: Automatically proceed to make...
[10:11] <phixnay> does anyone know how to fix resolution problems?
[10:11] <pike_> !fixres| phixnay
[10:11] <Gosha> .. this channel is the only one with people talking of the 10 channels i'm on .. ah wait! another one!
[10:11] <ubotu> phixnay: 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
[10:11] <Thug-N-Me> cedega depends on xlibs (>> 4.1.0);
[10:11] <tim167> BIGDADDY: hmm I dont know much about dual boot etc.. but i think you should check if grub loader is working
[10:11] <elyon225> phixnay: What is your problem?
[10:11] <erUSUL> myUserName: in edgy i get Version: 2.10.6-0ubuntu3
[10:11] <xtknight> elyon225: ./configure && make && sudo make install     common for primitive things.  make will not run unless configure succeeds (if you use &&), so no harm done.  NOT a good idea using the semicolon operator
[10:11] <h3xis> tucker, try starting it from command line. type sudo iwconfig and tell me the name of the interface
[10:12] <BIGDADDY> how can i check it?
[10:12] <elyon225> xtknight: Gotcha
[10:12] <xtknight> elyon225: i never do it that way anyway
[10:12] <phixnay> I can't get 1440x900 to work (nVidia drivers installed correctly, already tried editing xorg.conf, but might have done it wrong)
[10:12] <tucker> h3xis, il need to restart the pc into linux to do that then come back into windows ok?
[10:12] <myUserName> erUSUL, I am using gtk 2.10 do you know how to fix my error when compiling then?? as it requires greater than 2.6 and i have 2.10 so it should work but it doesnt
[10:12] <boabsta> ColinT, why you typing "."?
[10:12] <elyon225> xtknight: Yeah, I think I'd prefer to be able to view the output before proceeding.
[10:12] <tim167> BIGDADDY : do you see any mention of grub when you start your computer ?
[10:12] <erUSUL> myUserName: 2.10 which is the last version http://www.gtk.org/download/
[10:12] <BIGDADDY> no
[10:12] <h3xis> tucker, are you on a laptop?
[10:12] <xtknight> elyon225: configure tells you what it enabled at the end and usually i like to see that stuff.  also gives me a second to 'register' what just happened so then i can proceed to make if i verified all my configure options were correct.  if it just proceeds then i have no way of verifying short of CTRL+Cing the make
[10:12] <myUserName> erUSUL, error: PHP-GTK 2.x requires GTK+ 2.6.0 or higher
[10:12] <elyon225> phixnay: What did you do in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[10:13] <tucker> no its a desktop
[10:13] <h3xis> tucker, do you have a wired connection available?
[10:13] <erUSUL> myUserName: you may need to install the corresponding *-dev packages
[10:13] <xtknight> gtk+-dev i think
[10:13] <phixnay> I deleted all the resolutions and put "1440x900" in their places
[10:13] <tucker> unfortunatly not as the router is on the other side of the house and logest cable we have is 1m
[10:13] <tim167> BIGDADDY: then either grub is not working or ubuntu was not really installed... i think...
[10:13] <myUserName> thanks ill do a search for that now
[10:13] <h3xis> tucker, alright.
[10:13] <elyon225> phixnay: So you replaced ALL the resolutions with your desired one?
[10:13] <xtknight> libgtk2.0-dev
[10:13] <BIGDADDY> i ran ubuntu 6.10 desktop from cd then installed it from there
[10:13] <tucker> shall i restart and do it then?
[10:14] <tim167> BIGDADDY: but ask around please, I'm not an expert
[10:14] <elyon225> phixnay: I assume then that you have several entries for 1440x900 on the same line?
[10:14] <phixnay> yes. I pasted the contents of my xorg.conf file (original and modified) here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=332123
[10:14] <BIGDADDY> it partitioned the harddrive i told it to
[10:14] <erUSUL> myUserName:  libgtk2.0-dev for example, and others
[10:14] <madman91> VMWAREPLAYER::: I have a copy of windows xp.. and ubuntu dapper... with vmware player installed... how can i make a vmx for windows?
[10:14] <BIGDADDY> i also seen it say it was installing grub
[10:14] <boabsta> ColinT, are you using gnome?
[10:14] <phixnay> only one entry on each line
[10:14] <boabsta> ColinT, or KDE?
[10:14] <elyon225> Oh grr... how can I stop Konqueror from loading everytime I click a link?  Firefox is set as my default browser...
[10:14] <tim167> BIGDADDY: i think grub should see your linux partition and the XP partitions and give you those choices
[10:15] <tucker> h3xis shall i restart pc and do it then?
[10:15] <xtknight> elyon225:  xchat or gaim?
[10:15] <h3xis> tucker, yeah
[10:15] <myUserName> erUSUL, just started downloading libgtk2.0-dev do you know why it says 2.0 when its really 2.10 ?? thats the reason i was thinking my error was due to gtk version
[10:15] <BIGDADDY> but i think it might be my harddriv set up in the bios
[10:15] <elyon225> phixnay: Okay, have you restarted X?
[10:15] <Rizado> anyone know anything about log messages? I get tons of messages looking like:
[10:15] <Rizado> [85008.006347]  ''IN-internet':'IN=ppp0 OUT= MAC= SRC=88.156.96.69 DST=81.227.104.15 LEN=64 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=46 ID=25965 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=3313 DPT=6881 WINDOW=65535 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
[10:15] <BIGDADDY> they are all on sata
[10:15] <elyon225> xtknight: Well, haven't tried it in gaim, but it does it for xchat at least.
[10:15] <tucker> ok so i type in sudo iwconfig in the terminal right?
[10:15] <xtknight> elyon225: youre on kubuntu i assume?
[10:15] <Rizado> it's filling my logs in minutes
[10:15] <phixnay> yes, and when I restarted it put me in a weird resolution, so I went back to the original xorg.conf file
[10:15] <elyon225> xtknight: no.  I'm using gnome (but I installed kdebase)
[10:16] <phixnay> 1152x856 I think
[10:16] <tucker> h3xis, ok so i type in sudo iwconfig in the terminal right?
[10:16] <ismail_> hi all quick question
[10:16] <Rizado> sob, noone know anything
[10:16] <Rizado> sure
[10:16] <xtknight> elyon225: may as well just remove konqueror if you never use it
[10:16] <ismail_> how do i paste files from ubuntu to the windows directory
[10:16] <BIGDADDY> i remeber i had this same problem with dual booting windows xp
[10:16] <elyon225> phixnay: Try this.  Go to System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution and choose the resolution you want.  Check the box to make it default and restart X
[10:16] <h3xis> tucker, yes and look for the name of the interface for your wireless card
[10:16] <Rizado> you need to use ntfs-3g
[10:16] <erUSUL> myUserName: becouse it is the 2.0 series as oposed to the old 1.0 (that only reached 1.2) both are aviable and can be instaled side by side
[10:17] <elyon225> xtknight: I try that, but doing so would remove a ton of software that I need.
[10:17] <Rizado> look in ubuntu forum and faqs
[10:17] <ismail_> i get u dont have permition

[10:17] <tim167> how do i file a bug report for screenshot crashes ? (Bugbuddy only asks me to save it, not send...)
[10:17] <Rizado> there should be something about ntfs-3g there
[10:17] <BIGDADDY> the reason for intalling ubuntu is because i now hate windows xp with a pation grrr!!!
[10:17] <erUSUL> !ntfs
[10:17] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[10:17] <myUserName> erUSUL, yeah i would of assumed it would be 2.* but maybe they arnt allowed to put * in the filenames I dont know thanks for the help
[10:17] <elyon225> phixnay: Ah.  Then sadly I don't know what to tell you.  I just know doing that solved my problem, but if it isn't even listed then I don't know... sorry.
[10:18] <IcemanV9> !ntfs-3g | ismail_
[10:18] <ubotu> ismail_: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution.

[10:18] <fbc> iratik:  I have an NTFS windows hard drive connected to my computer via a usb2 case. I need to extract the docs and stuff so that I can format it.
[10:18] <ColinT> Thought "cat /etc/apt/sources.lst" would show if I had enabled repos.
[10:18] <ColinT> boabsta: Thought "cat /etc/apt/sources.lst" would show if I had enabled repos.
[10:18] <ColinT> Boabsta: oh, I also need to disable the Ubuntu CD source, any idea?
[10:18] <tim167> BIGDADDY: hate is not good, but any motivation to switch to Linux is good in my book :p
[10:18] <elyon225> xtknight: It won't let me remove konqueror without also removing kdebase, etc.

[10:19] <tim167> BIGDADDY: but is it working yet ?, if not hang in there, someone will be able to help you out here soon

[10:20] <phixnay> hey, can anybody help me with a screen resolution problem? I can't get 1440x900 to work (nVidia drivers installed correctly, already tried editing xorg.conf, but might have done it wrong). The contents of my xorg.conf are pasted here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=332123
[10:20] <Falstius> blanky: if that doesn't work you should reconfigure your networking and if you really need to it isn't that hard to just type out all of the commands.
[10:20] <BIGDADDY> i will be right back :)
[10:20] <tim167> BIGDADDY: yup, good luck
[10:20] <MacAdmin> can i run ubuntu on my intell mac pro with out hacking it?
[10:20] <BIGDADDY> thanx
[10:20] <elyon225> xtknight: eh, well.  I probably won't use KDE anyway... I'll just get rid of it, I guess.
[10:20] <ColinT> elyon225: Pop up open.
[10:20] <xtknight> elyon225: youre sure firefox is default in the gnome defaults dialog?
[10:20] <blanky> Falstius: I'm on terminal only (servermode I think), no gui :(
[10:20] <elyon225> xtknight: Easy enough to reinstall it.
[10:21] <Falstius> blanky: you can edit the configuration files with a text editor, they're straightforward.
[10:21] <Nielsken> someone has some time
[10:21] <blanky> Falstius: which ons?
[10:21] <hjmills> a friend just did a ls -l on a file she just created and it ends in * - why is this?
[10:21] <MacAdmin> can i run ubuntu on my intell mac pro with out hacking it?
[10:21] <xtknight> elyon225: dirty hack, but you could rename the konqueror binary, run xchat in terminal mode and see if it spits out any errors.  that might give you a clue as to where it's looking for the default browser
[10:21] <elyon225> ColinT: On that first window, there's a list of different sources to use... put the check marks next to the ones you want.
[10:21] <Falstius> blanky: start with /etc/network/interfaces
[10:22] <blanky> thanks Falstius
[10:22] <ColinT> elyon225: Done, do I need to uncheck all that are nor required?
[10:22] <elyon225> xtknight: No thanks... compiling was enough dirty work for me for a day or two ;)
[10:22] <Latty> Anyone else find GAIM suddenly not showing new messages unless you click in the message text area?
[10:22] <xtknight> hjmills: i dont know.  if you would like to remove a file named *, type this :  rm \*
[10:22] <phixnay> macadmin: I'm no expert, but my friend set up his mac book with ubuntu, xp, and mac triple boot, but he had to follow a specific guide on the internet somewhere
 a friend just did a ls -l on a file she just created and it ends in * - why is this? <== I think that might be there if it's executable.
[10:22] <Nielsken> need some help with installing a usb driver for wirelles connenction

[10:22] <hjmills> xtknight: its not named * - its a ~/.vimrc file

[10:27] <Rizado> If I start a private chat with someone that's not registered. Can they answer me?
[10:27] <xtknight> Rizado: yes

[10:27] <apollo2011> hi everyone
[10:27] <Nielsken> indeed xtknight
[10:28] <P-K> Anyone know how to fix su? As root I want to be able to do "su -s username" and dump me into any users shell I want. But it just su's me back to root.
[10:28] <phixnay> pike_: Ok, I'll check the specs on newegg, but I think they're already correct
[10:28] <xtknight> Nielsken: post the output of the lsusb command to pastebin
[10:28] <ColinT> h3xis: try to install HPlip file. (since long time ago) it asks me for a password for sudo (this is my normal log-on password right?)
[10:28] <mwe> !root | P-K
[10:28] <ubotu> P-K: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:28] <tim167> Nielsken: what wireless USB device ? (dwl-g122 by any chance ?)
[10:28] <bepogi> hello.  i have mounted a second drive in ext3 (Tried reiserfs) too and also done sudo chmod 777 /media/potbelly
[10:28] <bepogi> .... but I cannot create new folders on the drive?
[10:28] <BIGDADDY> i had no luck :(
[10:28] <Nielsken> its D-link
[10:28] <Falstius> P-K: shouldn't it be just "su - <username>"?
[10:28] <h3xis> ColinT, yes, when you type it in it wont show because it is masked
[10:29] <hjmills> bepogi: permissions on the drive?
[10:29] <apollo2011> I have a computer with a root partition and a /home partition, and the /home partition got wiped out. I reformatted it back to ext3 but KDE doesn't start up because the parition has none of the user's necessary files. How do I get it so I can logon again?
[10:29] <mwe> P-K: that explains how to enable root login as well if you insist
[10:29] <ColinT> h3xis: aha... so just press enter?
[10:29] <P-K> Falstius: Thats what I thought but it doesnt work.
[10:29] <h3xis> ColinT, yes
[10:29] <bepogi> The properties say only root can read and write
[10:29] <bepogi> but i thought sudo chmod 777 /media/potbelly would alter that?
[10:29] <mwe> P-K: please read the link ubotu supplied. it's short and useful
[10:29] <jrib> bepogi: did you change it before or after mounting?
[10:29] <ColinT> h3xis: done so.... line is spinning around.
[10:29] <tim167> Nielsken: yes, D-lin and then...? DWL-G122 ? ( because I have one like that, and would like to get it working too, but didnt succeed yet...)
[10:29] <xtknight> Nielsken: did you get my last message?
[10:29] <Nielsken> yes
[10:30] <Nielsken> can we have a privat chat please?
[10:30] <Falstius> P-K: with -s or without?
[10:30] <tim167> Nielsken: ok
[10:30] <P-K> mwe: I know how to log in as root. I but I want to be able to su to other users from root.
[10:30] <ColinT> phixnay: Thanks. :-)
[10:30] <xtknight> Nielsken:  sure, but then other people with the same problem won't have the luxury of knowing how to fix it ;)
[10:30] <P-K> Falstius: either way it just keeps putting me back as root.
[10:30] <pike_> P-K: su - username doesnt work?
[10:30] <phixnay> glad to help
[10:30] <bepogi> I changed it after.
[10:30] <Nielsken> ok
[10:30] <ColinT> timl167: Thanks, but yes it is off. :-) Glad someone got the level I am on.

[10:33] <Nielsken> so xtnight, I have the driver for windows, but I like to open it with ubuntu
[10:33] <amicrawler> how do i get my res changer back so i can switch res again
[10:33] <xtknight> Nielsken: the chipset for your adapter is made by Atheros
[10:34] <xtknight> Nielsken: im just digging for needed data right now ;)
[10:34] <dredhammer> where do i find the open source ATI drivers i want to try installing beryl
[10:34] <chico_> i cant play youtube
[10:34] <chico_> no sound
[10:34] <Nielsken> k
[10:34] <chico_> can anyone pls help me
[10:34] <jrib> chico_: use flash9 beta
[10:34] <jerp> amicrawler, you have a res changer?
[10:34] <phr34ck> Something is wrong with my system. I have JRE 5, and yet Frostwire is not seeing JRE. I used this "sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre" and it said that it's already installed.
[10:34] <tim167> chico_: install latest Flash plugin
[10:34] <phixnay> pike: is Horizontal Refresh Rate the same thing as "HorizSync?"
[10:34] <phr34ck> What am I suppose to do to frostwire in order to see JRE ?
[10:34] <jrib> !flash9 | chico_
[10:34] <ubotu> chico_: flash9 is available from dapper-backports and edgy-backports now, see !backports
[10:34] <amicrawler> yes in dapper
[10:34] <chico_> just go to their website
[10:34] <amicrawler> but not in edgy
[10:34] <chico_> i dont know how to do that in backports
[10:35] <jrib> !backports | chico_
[10:35] <ubotu> chico_: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[10:35] <phr34ck> !flash9 > phr34ck
[10:35] <jrib> chico_: after enabling backports, just install flashplugin-nonfree
[10:35] <amicrawler> i use kde
[10:35] <phixnay> pike_: is Horizontal Refresh Rate the same thing as "HorizSync?"
[10:35] <jrib> !enter | amicrawler
[10:35] <jerp> chico, you have to add soemthing to the firefoxrc file
[10:35] <ubotu> amicrawler: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:35] <chico_> here is the thing
[10:35] <amicrawler> gnome has a screen res changer  but not kde in the control panel
[10:35] <chico_> i can play it earlier
[10:35] <chico_> but when i started playing the audio CD
[10:35] <BIGDADDY> i need to reboot now brb
[10:35] <chico_> the youtube stopped
[10:35] <phr34ck> Something is wrong with my system. I have JRE 5, and yet Frostwire is not seeing JRE. I used this "sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre" and it said that it's already installed.
[10:36] <jrib> chico_: the reason is flash7 uses oss so it only lets one sound play at a time.  flash9beta uses alsa so it doesn't have this problem
[10:36] <chico_> and sometimes when i am playing youtube the audio CD wont run
[10:36] <ColinT> hmmmm.... no change. Anyone wiz on printers? I have read the ubuntu pages
[10:36] <chico_> I see
[10:36] <mwe> amicrawler: well doesn't it choose the highest possible refresh rate according to the info you supplied in xorg.conf?
[10:36] <MTecknology> What's better for a virtual machine? installing with LVM or not?
[10:36] <CheshireViking> chico: try this Edgy help page http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox theres a couple of lines at the bottom about sound in youtube
[10:37] <amicrawler> i don't have x config any more can't see it
[10:37] <xtknight> Nielsken: looks like your adapter is supported by LinuxAnt driverloader: http://www.linuxant.com/driverloader/wlan/index.php
[10:37] <xtknight> Nielsken: i have never used that but i may be able to help you install it
[10:37] <mwe> amicrawler: please explain
[10:37] <xtknight> does driverloader work on a stock edgy kernel?
[10:37] <Nielsken> I will have a look and see what it can do for me
[10:37] <chico_> this is a little bit complicated
[10:38] <jrib> chico_: which part?
[10:38] <mwe> xtknight: isn't atheros chipsets supported by madwifi?
[10:38] <jerp> I can't visit youtube, I had the big idea to go out and get an amd64 system
[10:38] <palancar> hello everyone, i have a quick q about edgy
[10:38] <amicrawler> i upgraded  from dapper  in my control panel there was a lot more  services in there  now half are gone
[10:38] <chico_> you want me first to get BACKPORT right?
[10:38] <xtknight> mwe: not this one, i guess
[10:38] <ColinT> I a trying to get a managing tool for my HP printer so I can change printer settign as I could in Windows. Is it possible. I sort of think it is.
[10:38] <ColinT> Any good ideas anyone
[10:38] <jrib> chico_: yes, first enable the backports repository
[10:38] <xtknight> mwe: hm ill have him try that
[10:38] <pike_> phixnay: i dont think hirzsync should be described like that but i guess it should be same thing
[10:38] <MTecknology> pike_, What's better for a virtual machine? installing with LVM or not?
[10:38] <xtknight> Nielsken: try '  sudo modprobe madwifi  ' and post your dmesg on pastebin please
[10:38] <amicrawler> missing hardware,printers,scaners,screen with the x11 in the screen
[10:38] <palancar> i heard rumors that ubuntu was going to add a low latency pro audio kernel by default, which would be very cool
[10:38] <chico_> and i do that in Synap Pack Manager right?
[10:38] <KinGBin> is there a repository for mpeg4ip on 6.10 64 bit?
[10:38] <phixnay> pike_: thanks. trying it won't hurt it anyway
[10:38] <palancar> does edgy have this new kernel (anyone know)?
[10:39] <jrib> chico_: you can do it there if you want
[10:39] <hjmills> is there a nano like command like editor that has syntax highlighting?
[10:39] <chico_> is there any other place where i can do that easier?
[10:39] <erisco> where can I get a list of SQL databases that PHP supports?
[10:39] <jrib> hjmills: nano has syntax highlighting I think
[10:39] <pike_> MTecknology: dunno
[10:39] <mwe> amicrawler: I see
[10:39] <hjmills> jrib: really?! Wow!
[10:39] <phixnay> testing new xorg.conf file, will return
[10:39] <mwe> amicrawler: are you talking about gnome now or still KDE?
[10:40] <amicrawler> kde
[10:40] <jrib> chico_: that's probably the easiest.  You could also go directly to system > administration > software sources
[10:40] <xtknight> ..The native Atheros chipset madwifi drivers do not yet support USB devices..
[10:40] <xtknight> ahh
[10:40] <amicrawler> gnome is fine
[10:40] <amicrawler> but kde is missing a few skrews
[10:40] <pike_> amicrawler: heh
[10:40] <mwe> amicrawler: maybe some packages got uninstalled in the process.
[10:40] <amicrawler> before the upgrade the screws were in place
[10:40] <jrib> hjmills: that was my reaction too :)  Google for "nano syntax highlighting" if you want.  I prefer just using vim
[10:41] <mwe> amicrawler: it happened to me
[10:41] <amicrawler> how to fix then
[10:41] <ColinT> Any clever on printers?
[10:41] <amicrawler> is there a howto?
[10:41] <mwe> amicrawler: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop would make sure the whole lot is installed but install some krap as well
[10:42] <tim167> ColinT: (I m not clever on printers, but..) what's your printer problem ?
[10:42] <Rizado> amicrawler if you know what package something have happened with you can run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure packagename"
[10:42] <Nielsken> xtknight
[10:42] <xtknight> Nielsken: yes?
[10:42] <mwe> amicrawler: but you could always remove stuff you don't want after that
[10:42] <Nielsken> I've dowloaded the file from te website
[10:42] <IMMORTAL> METAL?
[10:42] <Nielsken> its.run
[10:42] <amicrawler> don't know what kde runs
[10:43] <Nielsken> but I'm naab with linux
[10:43] <Aggort> OK guys time ahs finaly come to install Ubuntu
[10:43] <Aggort> but I have a problem
[10:43] <Aggort> how do I choose what partition I want to install on?
[10:43] <Nielsken> its just at my home page of ubuntu
[10:43] <a1> whats is more stable kubuntu  or ubuntu (gnome )   ?
[10:43] <xtknight> Nielsken: hm, you saved a .run file on your Desktop you mean?
[10:43] <mwe> amicrawler: what do you mean
[10:44] <Nielsken> jep
[10:44] <ColinT> tim167: I try. As I somewhere, at some point, readt that one could get a managing tool very much like the one my HP printer has in Windows to control printer quality. At the moment is uses    f a r    to much ink and wonder how I can easely adjust this for different paper qualities.
[10:44] <Nielsken> (sorry for english, belgium)
[10:44] <a1>  whats is more stable kubuntu  or ubuntu (gnome )   ?
[10:44] <compengi> Aggort, after gparted step you will choose
[10:44] <amicrawler> should i just update kde again
[10:44] <jrib> a1: kde and gnome are probably equally "stable", just choose the one you prefer
[10:44] <Tsool> Folks. I'm fighting with lirc at the moment...compiling and installing is working fine, lsmod lists the modules as it should, but there's no /dev/lirc. Have I missed something in the installation process, perhaps?
[10:44] <IMMORTAL> INSTALL MY SHIT!
[10:44] <phixnay> pike_: it didn't work: here's what happened:
[10:44] <hjmills> jrib: i prefer vim as well but for a windows user who only needs a cli editor occasionally nano will b better
[10:44] <Aggort> compengi: Step 6?
[10:44] <amicrawler> and knock on wood and pray
[10:44] <mwe> amicrawler: just type sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop in a terminal to make sure the kubuntu-desktop is correctly installed

[10:44] <tim167> ColinT: wait, I had this too... looking it up

[10:44] <BIGDADDY> hi
[10:44] <xtknight> Nielsken: alright.  do you know how to go to the desktop in the terminal?
[10:45] <IMMORTAL> OK GUYS!
[10:45] <Aggort> What?
[10:45] <Nielsken> nope

[10:45] <jrib> !caps | IMMORTAL
[10:45] <ubotu> IMMORTAL: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[10:45] <BIGDADDY> well i installed that software but i cannot find it
[10:45] <Aggort> Look the hard drive has two partitions, 1 is Winodws NTFS the other is extended
[10:45] <xtknight> Nielsken: do you know how to open the terminal?
[10:45] <compengi> Aggort, i mean their numbers
[10:45] <chico_> iok
[10:45] <Nielsken> yes
[10:45] <jrib> BIGDADDY: what software?
[10:45] <chico_> am done with the backport
[10:45] <chico_> i think
[10:45] <chico_> whats next
[10:45] <pike_> phixnay: already using nvidia drivers i think right? can you just paste the whole xorg.conf file and your monitor model?
[10:45] <xtknight> Nielsken: alright.  type this  " cd Desktop "  once at the terminal
[10:45] <IMMORTAL> ok,caps,why?
[10:45] <xtknight> Nielsken: (no double quotes)
[10:45] <ColinT> timl167: You're great. (Am very very fond of my printer, it has been superb for a few years)
[10:45] <jrib> chico_: now install the flashplugin-nonfree package
[10:45] <Aggort> compenji: I know, but I am at the step "Prepare Disk Space"
[10:45] <BIGDADDY> from here http://www.fs-driver.org/
[10:45] <jerp> bigdaddy, look in the menu
[10:45] <chico_> how do i do that
[10:46] <Aggort> comopenji: I already prepared it with Windows, so how do I jsut leave everything alone?
[10:46] <BIGDADDY> what menu?
[10:46] <PriceChild> BIGDADDY: when intalling you should have chosen what linux drives to mount
[10:46] <phixnay> Pike_: when it restarted, it was in 1152x870, with V/H refresh 60.2 Hz 57 KHz, so I reverted back to the old one.
[10:46] <phixnay> My xorg.conf is pasted here (note: this one has the wrong refresh ranges)
[10:46] <BIGDADDY> :(
[10:46] <compengi> Aggort, is it the step where you can resize you partitions?
[10:46] <Nielsken> ok
[10:46] <jrib> BIGDADDY: try going to "My Computer" and see if your drive is visible
[10:46] <tim167> ColinT: not sure if it will be usefull to you, what type of printer is it ?
[10:46] <IMMORTAL> what is this room about?please tell me!
[10:46] <Nielsken> I'm in
[10:46] <phixnay> sorry forgot link
[10:46] <chico_> is it the 9.0.21 something
[10:46] <BIGDADDY> should it reinstall it?
[10:46] <xtknight> Nielsken: alright.  type "sh filename.run"
[10:46] <Aggort> maually edit them and jsut don't do anything?
[10:46] <xtknight> Nielsken: filename.run is the name of the file you just downloaded

[10:49] <jrib> chico_: also, try prefixing what you say with a name, because most people in this channel probably have no context for what you are saying

[10:49] <Aggort> How do I mount these things?

[10:51] <Aggort> Select which partitions you want to use for your new installation, and where you want to mount each of them.You must mount one partition on the root file system ("/"), and you must choose at least one partition for use as swap space.

[10:52] <BIGDADDY> boot ubuntu :)
[10:52] <IMMORTAL> what is your configuration of comp.?
[10:52] <LinTux> what is best to scan emails for viruses as I have to make sure that any I might receive do not get passed on, I kmow they are probably not a poroblem to Linux, but other windows users I email to may suffer from them?
[10:53] <compengi> Aggort, yeah you need to put / in front of a partition that you want the linux to be installed on
[10:53] <jrib> BIGDADDY: reboot and choose ubuntu from grub?  or is that not working?
[10:53] <BIGDADDY> i dont see it in boot options
[10:53] <gnomefreak> IMMORTAL: if it doesnt have to do with ubuntu than it needs to be asked in a differetn channel. there is no such thing as a system config that can be brought from one pc to another
[10:53] <harjim> After install alternate cd, how do you get it to boot in a desktop
[10:53] <BIGDADDY> i only see my windows xp boot
[10:53] <gnomefreak> different even
[10:53] <pike_> phixnay: lemme maybe paste a diff xorg file
[10:53] <Aggort> compenji: Same with swap? Can they be the same partition?
[10:53] <phixnay> ok
[10:53] <IMMORTAL> what is linux,i have windows xp!
[10:53] <compengi> Aggort, btw did you create ext2 or ext3 partion for linux
[10:53] <IMMORTAL> ?
[10:54] <compengi> Aggort, no you need to make a different partition for swap
[10:54] <Aggort> compenji: No it's jsut empty space
[10:54] <gnomefreak> IMMORTAL: linux is an alternative to windows.

[10:54] <LinTux> IMMORTAL, well I feel sorry for you then, dump it and move to Linux it is far superior.
[10:54] <Aggort> compenji: Wait a second, I need two partitions for Ubuntu then
[10:54] <PriceChild> LinTux: not the best advice :)
[10:54] <BIGDADDY> can i add it to my boot.ini ?
[10:55] <Falstius> Aggort: 3 is even better.
[10:55] <h3xis> linux is not, by definition, an alternative to windows
[10:55] <mwe> Nielsken: please restate your problem if you still want me to help. I've not been following closely
[10:55] <jrib> BIGDADDY: does grub even start?

[10:55] <IMMORTAL> hehe,this is great site,you all know about computers!but doses anybody knows where is CROATIA?
[10:55] <Aggort> Do they both need to be ext3?
[10:55] <gnomefreak> h3xis: linux is an alternative to windows but there is no definition of linux other than its an operating system
[10:55] <BigToe> croatia is in italy
[10:55] <jerp> What's the deal when you checkmark the 'Gnome Control Center' in the Menu Editor (System/Preferences) you get an additional entry.
[10:56] <IMMORTAL> no!
[10:56] <Aggort> How big do they ened to be
[10:56] <compengi> Aggort, then you need to create two partions at least on root directory which should be selected as "/" and a swap partition as "SWAP"
[10:56] <phixnay> I'll try. Can I just paste this whole thing, including the line numbers?
[10:56] <IMMORTAL> Im from croatia
[10:56] <phixnay> oh, nvm
[10:56] <mwe> BigToe: did you configur it to use the right paper size. eg A4 or letter or what you need?
[10:56] <h3xis> gnomefreak, linux isnt even an OS
[10:56] <BigToe> yes
[10:56] <pike_> phixnay: sorry not line numbers one sec
[10:57] <compengi> Aggort, swap partition depends on how much ram do you have
[10:57] <BigToe> actually mwe good idea

[10:57] <Aggort> 1gig
[10:57] <gnomefreak> h3xis: not a good place to troll. and yes linux is an operating system
[10:57] <BigToe> I'll try it on different paper sizes
[10:57] <h3xis> gnomefreak, who said i was trolling? it's a kernel
[10:57] <compengi> Aggort, and root partition should be at least 2GB
[10:57] <h3xis> gnomefreak, a kernel is not an OS
[10:57] <Aggort> k
[10:57] <gnomefreak> h3xis: yes and no
[10:57] <phixnay> pike_: it's ok, the line numbers do not get highlighted
[10:57] <jerp> What's the deal when you checkmark the 'Gnome Control Center' in the Menu Editor (System/Preferences) you get an additional entry. and in that it does that is that a bug made evident and does it hold back some properties?
[10:57] <gnomefreak> h3xis: the backbone of linux == kernel
[10:57] <compengi> Aggort, you have 1G ram?
[10:57] <Aggort> yup
[10:57] <h3xis> gnomefreak, no. linux is a kernel. it is not an OS. GNU is the OS
[10:57] <gnomefreak> h3xis: kernel does nothing for you without modules/app/programs
[10:58] <Aggort> Root = at least 2gb swap =?
[10:58] <mwe> h3xis: depends on who you ask. some say linux is only the kernl some say it's the linux kernel plus utilities
[10:58] <tucker> h3xis, ive been tryin and trying and it is still not connecting, when i did sudo iwconfig it just brought up information about the connection, and seen as it wasnt connected it didnt have anything after ssid:, etc....any ideas?
[10:58] <compengi> Aggort, then you can create 500MB swap space it would be enough
[10:58] <Aggort> k
[10:58] <gnomefreak> h3xis: if you want to get technical GNU is a flavor of the apps provided with the kernel
[10:58] <Nrbelex> Hi, I'm having a problem with Kannel. My router's log shows an incoming connection from a cell through my forwarded port (9201 UDP & TCP) but the Ubuntu computer gives nothing back (outbound).
[10:58] <chico> I am back. Now, I have rebooted the system. Still have no sound from YOUTUBE
[10:58] <phixnay> pike_: I'll trying it now
[10:58] <chico> What else can i be missing
[10:58] <ihope> With the Ubuntu live CD, what directory's the hard drive placed in?
[10:58] <Aggort> If I want to store files shouldn;t I make a large root?
[10:58] <h3xis> tucker, nope :/
[10:58] <compengi> Aggort, if you have 2G ram then you need no swap :)
[10:59] <tucker> so theirs nothing else i can do?
[10:59] <n30n> Kernal: In computer science, the kernel is the fundamental part of an operating system.  <-- google
[10:59] <tucker> its fu****
[10:59] <jerp> nevermind, that app offers the menu it sits in :p
[10:59] <Aggort> comopenji: damn lol Do files save to the root? If so I want to make that big
[10:59] <h3xis> gnomefreak, right
[10:59] <h3xis> gnomefreak, and the kernel is linux
[10:59] <xtknight> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=define%3Alinux&btnG=Google+Search
[10:59] <xtknight> funny how like every line says operating system lol
[10:59] <n30n> Three cheers for google!
[10:59] <tucker> h3xis i dnt understand why it feezes everytime it trys to connect, you must have another idea????
[10:59] <theCore> Announcement: There is a quiz in #ubuntu-trivia starting in a few minutes. The lucky winner will be getting a special prize!
[10:59] <Nielsken> xtknight
[10:59] <jrib> TridentPlus: on http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ what version is displayed?
[11:00] <h3xis> tucker, sounds like a bug
[11:00] <Nielsken> you ar eback?
[11:00] <xtknight> Nielsken: yup already
[11:00] <DarthLappy> theCore: A kick? :)
[11:00] <gnomefreak> h3xis: in generally speaking for a troll that doesnt care of what he types nor the answer he gets linux == oS is fine IMO
[11:00] <Aggort> comopenji: Do they need to be in ext3? and What about saving files?
[11:00] <tucker> h3xis in ubuntu or what?
[11:00] <Nielsken> k
[11:00] <theCore> DarthLappy: a poster
[11:00] <kritzstapf> h3xis, the OS is in fact called "GNU/Linux".
[11:00] <Nielsken> I did evenrything you sais
[11:00] <Nielsken> installed
[11:00] <h3xis> tucker, maybe maybe not
[11:00] <Nielsken> donwloaded it from the website
[11:00] <DarthLappy> theCore: ...That says /kick ?
[11:00] <Falstius> Aggort: make a moderate sized root (10GB), a good sized swap (1GB) and the rest home so that when you mess up your system it is easy to reinstall :)
[11:00] <mwe> xtknight: actually some people insist linux is only the kernel while others say it's the kernel + utils ;)
[11:00] <BIGDADDY> ok now going to try it again wish me luck :)
[11:00] <jerp> why doesn't firefox just put flash in the browser?
[11:00] <Rasalgethi> Where does the screen resolution gui get its options? The resolutions it presents are totally different from what I have in xorg.conf. None is a subset of the other...
[11:00] <compengi> Aggort, yeah all applications would be saved in the root directory
[11:00] <tucker> h3xis anyone else here that might be able to help?
[11:00] <h3xis> kritzstapf, because some people confuse linux as the OS
[11:00] <theCore> DarthLappy: no
[11:00] <xtknight> Nielsken: so...what did the program do?
[11:00] <h3xis> tucker, i dont know ask :)
[11:00] <Nielsken> and it told me that I can now config the adapter
[11:00] <n30n> gnomefreak: the linux KERNEL is PART of the OS
[11:00] <Tsool> Anybody proficient with lirc here?
[11:01] <TridentPlus> jrib: 7 something
[11:01] <mwe> Nielsken: please restate your problem if you still want me to help. I've not been following closely
[11:01] <tucker> h3xis is it worth downloading the drivers for the chip and loading them up when i go into linux?
[11:01] <pike__> anything but this discussion...
[11:01] <compengi> Aggort, ext3 is good
[11:01] <TridentPlus> i dont know whats wrong, i got the  already
[11:01] <gnomefreak> n30n: the kernel is the base you can have kernel without anything else
[11:01] <phixnay> pike_: same result as before, it gives me 1152x870 resolution
[11:01] <h3xis> gnomefreak, please. you have no proof that i am a troll other than you disagree with me
[11:01] <h3xis> tucker, you can give it a try
[11:01] <TridentPlus> jrib:  i followed the instruction about backport and installing the flash9
[11:01] <kritzstapf> $ uname -o
[11:01] <kritzstapf> GNU/Linux
[11:01] <kritzstapf> EOD
[11:01] <pike__> phixnay: sue newegg!
[11:01] <n30n> gnomefreak: Yeah. If you just had a linux kernal... thenall you have is a linux kernal
[11:01] <jrib> TridentPlus: ah then that is the problem, please pastebin the result of this command:  apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree && ls -l /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[11:01] <tucker> h3xis any idea where i would get them as i am unsure
[11:01] <Nielsken> mwe: I try to isntall a usb device for wireless internet, xt knight now the details
[11:01] <jrib> !pastebin | TridentPlus
[11:01] <ubotu> TridentPlus: 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)
[11:01] <gnomefreak> h3xis: that weasnt meant for you please read it and see what i said to IMMORTAL
[11:01] <Falstius> gnomefreak, n30n, really this is offtopic and the channel is busy enough.
[11:01] <Aggort> How do i set the rest for home? Just leave it unallocated?
[11:01] <Flannel> kritzstapf lsb_release -a might be what you want
[11:01] <Nielsken> xtknight has given me a website where there is a linux driver
[11:01] <xtknight> mwe: basically he has an atheros adapter, he downloaded and ran the driverloader installer from LinuxAnt and now needs help configuring his wireless adapter (grabbing windows drivers and shoving them into driverloader i assume)
[11:01] <mwe> Nielsken: ok
[11:01] <h3xis> tucker, well since you are using the ralink chipset, try googling for ralink linux
[11:02] <h3xis> tucker, i know there is a project
[11:02] <phixnay> pike_: lol sigh... it works on windows... so I guess sue ubuntu?
[11:02] <n30n> Falstius: Alrighty
[11:02] <pike__> phixnay: thats odd do you maybe have windows running on this machine too?
[11:02] <Nielsken> I've installed the driver
[11:02] <phixnay> yes I do
[11:02] <xtknight> driverloader is just like ndiswrapper
[11:02] <pike__> phixnay: its ok in xp?
[11:02] <tucker> h3xis, ok and is it any ralink linux driver???
[11:02] <mwe> xtknight: is driverloader free? I thought you had to pay for it
[11:02] <Nielsken> ah k
[11:02] <kritzstapf> Flannel, why do you think you know what i want?
[11:02] <gnomefreak> h3xis: IMMORTAL was the troll i was referring to
[11:02] <xtknight> mwe: no idea.  he downloaded the installer off their site
[11:02] <Nielsken> yes
[11:02] <mwe> xtknight: I don't think madwifi supports usb though
[11:02] <n30n> mwe: Almost everything having to do with ubuntu is free
[11:02] <xtknight> mwe: that's right so we have to use this program, which takes windows driers
[11:02] <phixnay> yes. after I installed nvidia drivers on xp, display preferences had 1440x900 as a choice, and it works fine
[11:03] <mwe> n30n: but everything
[11:03] <kritzstapf> Flannel, i justed wanted to proof that the name of the OS is not linux nor GNU but GNU/Linux :)
[11:03] <Nielsken> and it has givin me a posword in terminator which I can use to download
[11:03] <h3xis> gnomefreak, oh sorry. i thought you were speaking in some form, my apologies XD
[11:03] <mwe> n30n: like crossover for example
[11:03] <Nielsken> so I did evnrything
[11:03] <n30n> mwe: okay.
[11:03] <mwe> n30n: and driverloader
[11:03] <Nielsken> and now I'm stuckd
[11:03] <tucker> h3xis ive found them on http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html but which on is it???
[11:03] <phixnay> pike_ : let me check my gfx card's specs, and I can boot into xp to make sure it works there
[11:03] <h3xis> tucker, there is an open source project
[11:03] <Aggort> http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/4589/screenshotff7.png
[11:04] <mwe> n30n: that's not ubuntu software though. it's general linux software
[11:04] <Aggort> is that good?
[11:04] <Megawave> hey, i once used a web comfig program similar to phpMyAdmin, but it could not only configure mySQL, also a lot of other services like samba and other stuff. Just can't remember its name, any ideas?
[11:04] <Aggort> http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/4589/screenshotff7.png or am I way off
[11:04] <pike__> phixnay: best bet might be the forums thread syr man
[11:04] <mwe> n30n: can of course be used in ubuntu though
[11:04] <xtknight> Nielsken: what was the exact message it gave you?
[11:04] <compengi> Aggort, root directory is your home
[11:04] <Aggort> oh well good to know
[11:04] <TridentPlus> jrib:  here http://pastebin.com/852186
[11:04] <xtknight> Nielsken: it said "now configure your wireless adapter"?
[11:04] <tucker> h3xis, where?
[11:04] <h3xis> tucker, give me a sec
[11:04] <phixnay> pike_: alright, just a sec, let me get my gfx card's specs
[11:04] <Aggort> compenji: So shoudl I use the rest of the unallocated space for root?
[11:05] <Aggort> and 1 gb for swap?

[11:05] <jerp> whooohooo!  First time I've gotten the dependency box in Synaptic.   I must have decent installation.
[11:05] <h3xis> tucker, you need to find which one you have. i dont know how to tell though
[11:05] <cyberfr0g> Hello
[11:05] <J0HN-newb> hey everybody
[11:05] <cyberfr0g> private
[11:05] <Aggort> Yes?
[11:05] <Nielsken> yes indeed xtknight
[11:05] <J0HN-newb> i'm new to Ubuntu and linux in general.
[11:05] <compengi> Aggort, if you want
[11:05] <J0HN-newb> can somebody please help me?
[11:05] <xtknight> !anyone | J0HN-newb
[11:05] <ubotu> J0HN-newb: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:05] <Aggort> compenji: OK so was my photo right then?
[11:05] <Nielsken> I closed the windows already :d
[11:05] <tucker> h3xis o ok, so somehow i need to find out, how to find out which one it is!
[11:06] <jerp> me too John-newb, got any war stories with Winblows?
[11:06] <n30n> J0HN-newb:  with what
[11:06] <h3xis> tucker, no idea :P
[11:06] <J0HN-newb> my monitor
[11:06] <compengi> Aggort, you created 1GB for swap and 34GB for root right?
[11:06] <TridentPlus> jrib: here http://pastebin.com/852188
[11:06] <Aggort> yup
[11:06] <n30n> J0HN-newb: Whats worng with it
[11:06] <compengi> Aggort, and the rest is the other backup partition
[11:06] <J0HN-newb> it's Hanns-g, i got it from newegg.com. it's 19" widescreen
[11:06] <Nielsken> xtknight, I closed the window already
[11:06] <J0HN-newb> ubuntu only allows it 800x600 resoultion :(
[11:06] <phixnay> pike_ : I'm going to double-check to make sure that xp isn't lying to me about resolutions
[11:06] <Aggort> Compenji: yea, and the top would be Windows
[11:06] <n30n> !resolution
[11:06] <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

[11:06] <J0HN-newb> and the monitor didn't even come with Windows drivers (windows default driver worked fine)
[11:06] <compengi> Aggort, yeah its good
[11:07] <xtknight> Nielsken: hm that's ok.  well i'm still trying to figure out if driverloader is free or not.  you might need to apy for it (what you installed may be a trial)
[11:07] <Aggort> ty very much
[11:07] <compengi> Aggort, but is your windows installed?
[11:07] <xtknight> Nielsken: may need to pay for it, i mean
[11:07] <Nielsken> I'm not gonna pay for it
[11:07] <jerp> john-newb, rund dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and you can fix resolutions
[11:07] <J0HN-newb> um
[11:07] <J0HN-newb> huh?
[11:07] <J0HN-newb> is that a terminal command?
[11:07] <n30n> J0HN-newb: Do you know where the terminal is
[11:08] <J0HN-newb> yah
[11:08] <compengi> Aggort, cause you can't install linux then windows cause windows kills linux boot, so you need to install windows then linux
[11:08] <n30n> J0HN-newb: go there
[11:08] <xtknight> is driverloader free?  anyone know?  this is frustrating
[11:08] <jerp> I'd hit ctrl+f1
[11:08] <jerp> and run it
[11:08] <J0HN-newb> ok. terminal open
[11:08] <xtknight> there's a buy now button but no mention of the download being a trial
[11:08] <n30n> J0HN-newb: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:08] <jerp>  ctrl+f1  ........ write it down  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:08] <xtknight> Nielsken: sorry.  i believe you can't use it for more than 30 days without paying.  i don't think your adapter is supported under linux other than that
[11:09] <ismail_> ntfs-3g doesntdo what i want
[11:09] <jerp> make sure it's updated first though
[11:09] <TridentPlus> jrib:  i wish to reboot again and see if it will work
[11:09] <jrib> TridentPlus: no
[11:09] <jerp> saves an extra step
[11:09] <Stormx2> ismail_: What do you want it to do?
[11:09] <jrib> TridentPlus: we didn't do anything
[11:09] <J0HN-newb> i get an error message
[11:09] <J0HN-newb> "bash: rund: command not found"
[11:09] <ismail_> i want to change the permition in my windowspartion to read and write\\
[11:09] <TridentPlus> jrib: ok
[11:09] <Nielsken> and whit the other program you told me
[11:09] <Nielsken> dni/dsi
[11:09] <xtknight> Nielsken: you might be able to use ndiswrapper instead of driverloader
[11:09] <Nielsken> that
[11:09] <mwe> xtknight: I don't mean to interfere but did he try ndiswrapper?
[11:09] <Nielsken> ok
[11:09] <ismail_> i want copy a file from ubuntu to windows partition
[11:09] <Stormx2> ismail_: Well then you'll want ntfs-3g
[11:09] <jrib> TridentPlus: you made the same typo again
[11:09] <Nielsken> I gonna try
[11:09] <xtknight> mwe: nope not yet
[11:10] <Nielsken> can you give command
[11:10] <ismail_> i installed it
[11:10] <jerp> john ........ sudo ............ hello
[11:10] <J0HN-newb> i'm working off of the live cd at the momment. i just don't want to mess up my windows install. i'll remember how to do all of this when i do the main install
[11:10] <n30n> J0HN-newb: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:10] <J0HN-newb> thanks
[11:10] <xtknight> Nielsken: sorry, i really have no clue how to use ndiswrapper
[11:10] <TridentPlus> whats wrong here
[11:10] <TridentPlus> apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree && ls -l /us/libr/firefox/plugins
[11:10] <ismail_> i ran the command but still nothing happened
[11:10] <Nielsken> is it ndiswrapper -i (name)
[11:10] <Stormx2> ismail_: Have you followed the guide?
[11:10] <mwe> ismail_: ntfs-3g supports read-write. all files will be mounted with same permission though, read-write if you specify that
[11:10] <n30n> xtknight: Do you have a .sys file to use it with
[11:10] <xtknight> Nielsken: what i do know  is that you need to use windows drivers.  and ndiswrapper "makes" them work on linux
[11:10] <n30n> xtknight: That would help
[11:10] <xtknight> !wireless | Nielsken
[11:10] <ubotu> Nielsken: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:10] <TridentPlus> jrib:  whats wrong here apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree && ls -l /us/libr/firefox/plugins
[11:11] <ismail_> its not part ofthe instruction
[11:11] <J0HN-newb> ok, the terminal's doing stuff now. i'm gonna follow the prompts...
[11:11] <xtknight> n30n: from the windows drivers probably
[11:11] <phr34ck> is there a channel for C++ developers?
[11:11] <jrib> TridentPlus: lib, not libr
[11:11] <J0HN-newb> i did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg btw
[11:11] <ismail_> in the instruction it just stated to make a mount point
[11:11] <ismail_> i did it
[11:11] <Flannel> phr34ck, ##C++ is a good one
[11:11] <Stormx2> ismail_: What instructions did you follow?
[11:11] <Aggort> I am gonna send one more picture to assure this is correct
[11:11] <mwe> ismail_: it's part of the instructions I read
[11:11] <phr34ck> is it Ubunto related ?
[11:11] <joshua__> hey folks, I'm currently getting this error trying to install e17 cvs on ubuntu using the easy install script:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/582/
[11:11] <mwe> ismail_: fact is that's how it works
[11:11] <ismail_> when i copy anything to the folder i only see it in ubuntu notin windows
[11:11] <compengi> Aggort, ok
[11:11] <Stormx2> ismail_: One moment, I'll find the thread
[11:11] <TridentPlus> jrib:  it gives me the same thing, the only difference is ls: /us/lib/firefox/plugins: No such file or directory
[11:11] <ismail_> ok
[11:11] <n30n> xtknight: Yeah when you have ndiswrapper installed you just type in sudo ndiswrapper -i (filenamehere.sys) in the terminal
[11:11] <mwe> ismail_: you need to mount the file system first
[11:12] <xtknight> n30n: ah, thanks
[11:12] <mwe> ismail_: just copying to a folder wont make it appear in windows
[11:12] <kestaz> why i can't ping the system from internet, if i check for ping in firestarter ?
[11:12] <Aggort> http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7725/screenshotwz4.png Is this good?

[11:14] <ubuntu_> i am running this from the ubuntu cd
[11:14] <compengi> Aggort, why there is no ntfs partition on your list?
[11:14] <Stormx2> professor: So ask it.
[11:14] <n30n> Nielsken: Yeah i know, i thought he would figure that part out
[11:14] <Nielsken> I have a .exe and a .inf
[11:14] <mwe> ubotu: please tell ismail_ about ntfs-3g, please read the second link
[11:14] <ubuntu_> i am not sure how to set grub up
[11:14] <xtknight> n30n: confusion :P  im trying to help Nielsken install ndiswrapper
[11:14] <Nielsken> xtknight I have ndiswrapper already
[11:14] <Aggort> compenji: that's a screenshot from teh isntall
[11:14] <mwe> ismail_: see /msg from ubotu
[11:14] <Nap> hi
[11:14] <ikonia> ubuntu_: the install does it for you
[11:14] <phixnay> Rasalgethi: I have the same problem I think. I want to use 1440x900 resolution, but it's not on the list
[11:14] <jrib> TridentPlus: ok,  ls -l /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[11:14] <n30n> xtknight: idk whats gon on then
[11:14] <VMT2007> haha, rms
[11:14] <VMT2007> err
[11:15] <ubuntu_> i have already installed it but i cannot boot to it
[11:15] <xtknight> Nielsken: alright.  do you have the sys file from your windows driver?
[11:15] <ubuntu_> BIGDADDY here
[11:15] <ikonia> ubuntu_: what error do you get
[11:15] <xtknight> n30n: do you also need the inf file or just the sys?
[11:15] <professor> Stormx2, I was downloading a game that has two cd, the first cd installed fine, but when I tried to install the second it said cd no found.  I typed thta address in and found the file but still read the same things
[11:15] <n30n> xtknight: just the sys
[11:15] <Nrbelex> Hi, I'm having a problem with Kannel. My router's log shows an incoming connection from a cell through my forwarded port (9201 UDP & TCP) but the Ubuntu computer gives nothing back (outbound).
[11:15] <Flannel> phr34ck, no.  if you want that, your best bet may be #ubuntu-offtopic, or if there's a specific team channel you're looking for, that one.
[11:15] <Aggort> compenji: I have thwe NTFS in Gparted
[11:15] <ubuntu_> none i just cannot see grub i only see my windowsxp
[11:15] <TridentPlus> jrib: no more apt-get etc.
[11:15] <Stormx2> professor: please use "winecfg", and go to the drives tab. Is your CD ROM drive listed?
[11:15] <n30n> xtknight: inf is just information
[11:15] <Nielsken> I only got .exe and .inf on the cd-rom
[11:15] <compengi> Aggort, hmm....
[11:16] <ikonia> Nrbelex: kannel ?
[11:16] <jrib> TridentPlus: what do you mean?
[11:16] <professor> Stormx2, ok what do I do, type that in terminal ?
[11:16] <Nrbelex> ikonia, indeed
[11:16] <Aggort> compenji: What? isn't that correct?
[11:16] <Stormx2> professor: Yes.
[11:16] <ikonia> whata a kannel ?
[11:16] <phixnay> hey, can anybody help me with a screen resolution problem? I can't get 1440x900 to work (nVidia drivers installed correctly, already tried editing xorg.conf, but might have done it wrong). The contents of my xorg.conf are pasted here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=332123
[11:16] <ubuntu_> so i am trying to get grub onto my MBR if thats posable?
[11:16] <Rasalgethi> phixnay: Interesting. I'm not sure where the GUI gets its options, 'cause on the other hand it presents me with a bunch of resolutions _not_ present in the xorg.conf Screen section...
[11:16] <professor> Stormx2, ok hold for a sec let me try
[11:16] <compengi> Aggort, did you create the unallocated partion?
[11:16] <TridentPlus> jrib: do i just cut and paste that

[11:16] <jrib> TridentPlus: yeah
[11:16] <Nrbelex> iknonia, Kannel is a WAP gateway
[11:16] <J0HN-newb> ok, i'm back
[11:16] <Nrbelex> !ubuto kannel
[11:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuto kannel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:16] <Aggort> compenji: yes 14 gigabytes
[11:16] <coz_> just did compete reinstallation of xp and edgy including all the edgy updates which in themselves included the xorg update... so who is the A** who removed the wacom tablet driver entries in the xorg update?
[11:16] <J0HN-newb> i did that terminal thing
[11:16] <ikonia> Nrbelex: is this an ubuntu problem ?
[11:17] <compengi> Aggort, no i mean the 34G
[11:17] <professor> Stormx2,  it says z drive and c

[11:17] <Nrbelex> ikonia, not sure if it's Ubuntu or Kannel - that's part of the problem
[11:17] <Aggort> comepnji: that's the root

[11:17] <Stormx2> professor: Looks like your CD drive is not listed.
[11:17] <Nielsken> xtknight?
[11:17] <xtknight> Nielsken: yes.... ok type 'sudo apt-get install wget'
[11:17] <J0HN-newb> it ran through a bunch of questions about my hardware. towards the end it probed my monitor, and even discovered the name of the monitor and screen resolution! so i hit enter a few times. eventually the program just ended. somehow, my screen resolution is still 800x600
[11:17] <Stormx2> professor: Try choosing "autodetect"
[11:17] <Aggort> compenji:  Ia ltered it slightly
[11:17] <TridentPlus> jrib:  http://pastebin.com/852206
[11:17] <professor> Stormx2, I clicked auto detect
[11:17] <xtknight> Nielsken: DWL-AG132 right?
[11:18] <xtknight> Nielsken: or is it the DWL-G132?
[11:18] <phixnay> Rasalgethi: That is strange. I'm pretty new to linux - maybe xorg.conf isn't the only config file... My monitor works the way it's supposed to with xp
[11:18] <professor> Stormx2, something came up let me run it I will be right back
[11:18] <Stormx2> professor: You may need to have a CD in the drive in order for it to be detected
[11:18] <Nielsken> ag
[11:18] <xtknight> k
[11:18] <Aggort> compenji: Before I ran the install I created gave the root 46 gb
[11:18] <ubuntu_> well windows xp was first installed i have only just installed ubuntu desktop but when i rebooted after installing it i cannot see grub
[11:18] <Aggort> 36*
[11:18] <xtknight> Nielsken: after that download this file with wget.  'cd Desktop'  and   'wget ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Wireless/dwlag132/Drivers/dwlag132_driver_221.zip'
[11:18] <xtknight> Nielsken: this should be the latest AG132 driver
[11:18] <Nielsken> k
[11:18] <ubuntu_> so i when to the link you said befor and i am now very confused :)
[11:19] <jerp> john-newb, did you check the resolution manager in the 'system nebu?'
[11:19] <compengi> Aggort, tell me how many partitions you want to create for linux and what's the size of each one
[11:19] <J0HN-newb> thanks for the help. i bet if i were to play around with that command some more, i should get it to work :)
[11:19] <jerp> john-newb, did you check the resolution manager in the 'system menu?'
[11:19] <n30n> jerp: it think he has a zero not an o
[11:19] <mwe> !grub | ubuntu_, this might help
[11:19] <ubotu> ubuntu_, this might help: 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
[11:19] <J0HN-newb> are there any other cool commands like this that i might need in the future?
[11:19] <jerp> john-newb, System / Preferences
[11:19] <dRK_sHd0w> does anyone use ispconfig??
[11:19] <Flannel> ubuntu_, that first link will show you how to reinstall grub, which is what you're attempting to get.  You have the Desktop/liveCD, and you DO want to overwrite the windows bootloader.  Follow those instructions
[11:19] <Aggort> compenji: I have 2. First is 1 gigabyte the second is 36 gigabyte and then I have 14 gigabytes of unallocated space
[11:20] <Nielsken> donwloading
[11:20] <J0HN-newb> yah, i tried hitting screen resolution under system/prefrences. still only offers 800x600
[11:20] <xtknight> Nielsken: when youre done,  unzip it.  'unzip dwlag132_driver_221.zip'
[11:20] <Rasalgethi> phixnay: Yeah, I find it sort of odd too. I'm actually not that new to linux, and I have configured a few x servers successfully before, but I have never needed to touch anything but xorg.conf.
[11:20] <compengi> Aggort, the 36G you want it to make the root one?
[11:20] <Nielsken> xtknight
[11:20] <dRK_sHd0w> any of you guyz know know much about ispconfig??
[11:20] <Nielsken> ok done
[11:20] <PgR> hi folks - anyone found scp/sftp/sshfs slow on 6.10 AMD64? gigabit NIC, downloads fine, upload 15kbps. unencrypted protocols fine.
[11:21] <ubuntu_> yes thats what i am trying to do i loaded it with cd now i dont understand how to do it
[11:21] <Nielsken> there are 2 .sys files
[11:21] <freezey> how do i check what processes are running
[11:21] <Aggort> compenji: yes, Should I not?
[11:21] <xtknight> Nielsken: ok, it's A5AGU.sys you want, not 9x
[11:21] <ikonia> ubuntu_: have you read the links sent to you
[11:21] <TridentPlus> jrib:  still here? can i reboot now?
[11:21] <Music_Shuffle> freezey, ps f -e
[11:21] <freezey> how do i check what processes are running?
[11:21] <hjmills> what is the name of the mode VIM starts in?
[11:21] <freezey> cool
[11:21] <compengi> Aggort, yes if you want
[11:21] <Flannel> ubuntu_, just follow the instructions on that page, for Desktop/LiveCD and overwriting windows bootloader
[11:21] <jerp> john-newb, you didn't add any different resolutions when it offered the selection, or did it even come up?
[11:21] <hjmills> freezey: ps -e
[11:21] <ubuntu_> yes i prited one out
[11:21] <jrib> TridentPlus: not yet, one sec
[11:21] <xtknight> Nielsken: type sudo 'ndiswrapper -i A5AGU.sys'
[11:21] <ubuntu_> *printed
[11:21] <Aggort> Compenji: The root is "/" right? Isn't that where files are stored?
[11:21] <compengi> Aggort, the only problem that i see in this pic http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7725/screenshotwz4.png
[11:21] <Nielsken> also the ' ? xtknight
[11:21] <threeonefour> freezy, type top in terminal
[11:21] <hjmills> Music_Shuffle: what does the f in ps f -e do?
[11:21] <xtknight> Nielsken: no
[11:21] <compengi> Aggort, true
[11:22] <J0HN-newb> it offered a bunch of diff resolutions, including the resolution was looking for. it appeared checked so i simply hit enter
[11:22] <andreasw> Hi, can someone post me the file /etc/console-tools/config especially the part with the screen font
[11:22] <Nielsken> so its 'sudo ndiswrapper -i A5AGU.sys'
[11:22] <AlexFicelle> Hi guys!
[11:22] <threeonefour> who here knows c
[11:22] <Music_Shuffle> hjmills, Beats me, but I know that's the command. :P
[11:22] <xtknight> Nielsken: by the way, you need to be in the directory where A5AGU is.  use the 'cd' command to get there
[11:22] <jerp> sometimes when it scrolls this fast it's better to google
[11:22] <xtknight> Nielsken: yes
[11:22] <Aggort> Comenji: so I'm good
[11:22] <xtknight> Nielsken: sudo ndiswrapper -i A5AGU.sys
[11:22] <ikonia> threeonefour: whats the question
[11:22] <xtknight> Nielsken: without the 's
[11:22] <n30n> J0HN-newb: Sweet deal
[11:22] <compengi> Aggort, so the mistake is that you don't need to select another partition as /home
[11:22] <hjmills> Music_Shuffle: i always just used ps -e
[11:22] <AlexFicelle> I'm looking for advice regarding the choice of a repartitioning tool. Gparted, QTParted, something else?
[11:22] <compengi> Aggort, cause / partition is root and home at the same time
[11:23] <cafuego_> hjmills: the 'f' gives you a listing of which process spawned which other process. (Forest option - shows process tree :-)
[11:23] <jrib> TridentPlus: we are looking for the other version of flash.  What does this do:  sudo updatedb && locate libflashplayer.so
[11:23] <pike_> phixnay: have you tried changing defauldepth to 16 ?
[11:23] <ikonia> AlexFicelle: its personal taste
[11:23] <no-sleep> if  need to run "make install" with sudo so that make can copy executable file to bin dir. But other files (like config data or so) i don't want to be copied with sudo, Is it possible to acchive that?
[11:23] <ubuntu_> i have Boot from a Live CD and Opened a Terminal and typed in grub
[11:23] <Music_Shuffle> No idea. ./shrug.
[11:23] <hjmills> cafuego_: thanks - just tried it as well :D
[11:23] <ts_> jest tu ktos z polski ?
[11:23] <Aggort> compengi: right, so I am good to install with that setup?
[11:23] <Stormx2> AlexFicelle: GParted

[11:23] <ubuntu_> uts the next steps i dont understand
[11:23] <compengi> Aggort, you need to choose the ntfs partition to be able to access it after you installed linux instead of /home one
[11:23] <ikonia> no-sleep: it will copy in with the permissions set on the files on built compleation
[11:23] <hjmills> no-sleep: you are better off using checkinstall
[11:23] <tommason> I am very new to linux and just finished installed ubuntu.. When I tried to download gaim I got the error message that the archive type rpm is not supported.. <--hopefully it is a newb type problem.. :)
[11:23] <jerp> john-newb, if I remember , use the spacebar to select the new different resolution  and the hit enter to go next screen
[11:23] <hjmills> !info checkinstall | no-sleep

[11:24] <phixnay> pike_: no I haven't - how do you do it?
[11:24] <threeonefour> ikonia, when i try to compile my program it says that           warning: no newline at end of file
[11:24] <jerp> "then hit enter"
[11:24] <ikonia> tommason: rpm's don't work on ubuntu
[11:24] <AlexFicelle> OK, but I need to repartition an NTFS partition (Windows of course, on my work laptop of course). Gparted already killed it once. I managed to get it back with some recovery tool.
[11:24] <pike_> tommason: you shouldnt need to download rpms although you can

[11:24] <ikonia> threeonefour: thats a c problem not ubuntu
[11:24] <mwe> no-sleep: you probably just want to copy the binary by hand with sudo cp
[11:24] <J0HN-newb> i'll try it again. brb for a few min as i go through this terminal thing...
[11:24] <Aggort> compengi: Where do I put it so I don't install anything voer the NTFS partition?
[11:24] <ikonia> tommason: read some of the howto's on https://wiki.ubuntu.com
[11:24] <xtknight> !wireless
[11:24] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:24] <pike_> phixnay: above the resolution entries will be "DefaultDepth   24" just change that to 16
[11:24] <mwe> no-sleep: it probably wont work without it's support files though
[11:24] <AlexFicelle> Any success story repartioning NTFS with Gparted?
[11:24] <tommason> ok.. thanks..
[11:25] <TridentPlus> jrib:  it asks for my password and pauses for a few seconds
[11:25] <ikonia> AlexFicelle: yes
[11:25] <pike_> tommason: sudo apt-get install gaim
[11:25] <jerp> select more new ones and they should appear in the resolution manager afterwards
[11:25] <Aggort> compengi: I already have Windows XP installed on the NTFS and I don;t want to ruin it again lol
[11:25] <threeonefour> what is a .out file
[11:25] <compengi> Aggort, linux will be only installed in / partition selected by you so don't worry
[11:25] <TridentPlus> jrib: ok i got the result now

[11:25] <no-sleep> k thx all
[11:25] <pike_> tommason: or open your package manager and search for it. sorry i dont use gnome or i could tell you the menu entry
[11:25] <Aggort> ok so what mount do i use?
[11:25] <ubuntu_> i just typed in as per instruction, find /boot/grub/stage1 but it says Error 15: File not found
[11:25] <phixnay> pike_: Oh ok. Should I use the xorg.conf with only "1440x900" listed?
[11:25] <heapme> is the LTS version of ubuntu gaurenteed to be stable and not have a crashy gnome?
[11:25] <ikonia> threeonefour: a c output file

[11:25] <TridentPlus> jrib:  http://pastebin.com/852214
[11:25] <ikonia> threeonefour: these are c questions - nothing to do with ubuntu

[11:26] <ikonia> threeonefour: join a c channel for C help
[11:26] <pike_> phixnay: shouldnt matter it will try entries from left to right
[11:26] <compengi> Aggort, use the /home one and replace it with your ntfs partition
[11:26] <AlexFicelle> ikonia: Did you have to defrag the NTFS partition first or something?
[11:26] <jrib> heapme: that's not what it means.  LTS just means it gets security updates for a longer period of time than usual
[11:26] <hjmills> threeonefour: i think its what is created when you use gcc to compile something - if you dont give it a name it compiles as a.out
[11:26] <Nielsken> xtknight
[11:26] <ikonia> AlexFicelle: no
[11:26] <phixnay> ok
[11:26] <xtknight> Nielsken: ..?
[11:26] <Nielsken> I did what you sais
[11:26] <Aggort> compenji: Then I can install?
[11:26] <heapme> is xfce more stable than gnome?
[11:26] <Nielsken> and he tolds me

[11:27] <ubuntu_> i did want to preserving Windows Bootloader is that posable?
[11:27] <ikonia> ubuntu_: not really
[11:27] <mwe> heapme: there is no known operating system which is bug free
[11:27] <Flannel> ubuntu_, why's that?
[11:27] <pike_> heapme: i prefer it but i dunno about more stable
[11:27] <pike_> heapme: lighter
[11:27] <threeonefour> ikonia, hjmills, what does cc do in terminal
[11:27] <ubuntu_> well i am new to this and need to boot into windows
[11:27] <xtknight> Nielsken: alright.  actually we need to do 'sudo ndiswrapper -i NetA5AGU.inf'
[11:27] <ikonia> threeonefour: shows you the cc compiler
[11:27] <ikonia> threeonefour: this is NOT a C help channel
[11:27] <Flannel> ubuntu_, grub boots into windows perfectly fine
[11:27] <ikonia> threeonefour: join a C channel
[11:28] <ikonia> this channel is busy enough with ubuntu
[11:28] <heapme> mwe true but some are more stable than others, like slackware is more stable than debian, etc
[11:28] <Nielsken> what's the different?

[11:28] <Flannel> ubuntu_, you'll be presented with options when first booting.  to choose windows or ubuntu
[11:28] <pike_> ubotu: those links should provide a little info
[11:28] <mwe> heapme: it is? I don't think so
[11:28] <compengi> ok
[11:28] <xtknight> Nielsken: inf file this time
[11:28] <pike_> ubuntu_: ^
[11:28] <Aggort> there you go compengi
[11:28] <phixnay> pike_: sorry, no go.
[11:28] <Nielsken> the same
[11:28] <ikonia> mwe: he's talking nonsense and arguing personal opinion
[11:28] <Aggort> I'm good?
[11:28] <compengi> Aggort, ok
[11:28] <mwe> heapme: I think debian stable is more stable than slackware current
[11:28] <Aggort> ty
[11:28] <threeonefour> ikonia, can you give me a C channel name
[11:28] <compengi> let me check
[11:28] <TridentPlus> jrib:  http://pastebin.com/852214
[11:28] <ikonia> threeonefour: no
[11:28] <mwe> ikonia: yeah
[11:28] <Flannel> threeonefour, ##C
[11:28] <ikonia> threeonefour: look on the freenode channel list
[11:28] <pike_> phixnay: other than maybe trying the latest nvidia drivers or something i dont know..
[11:29] <Nielsken> xtknight: just tells me that he's installing
[11:29] <heapme> mwe well either way you're agreeing that some operating s ystems are more stable than others... which is what im saying :p
[11:29] <no-sleep> "make install" does this: /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 ./settings.xml /usr/local/share/tsaver-0.5.2/settings.xml how can i change that it uses 777 instead of 644?
[11:29] <Nielsken> but do not se rsults
[11:29] <heapme> ie win2k is more stable than win98
[11:29] <xtknight> Nielsken: hmm..sorry i'm not sure what to do from here
[11:29] <hjmills> threeonefour: gcc may b better than cc - im not sure as i dont code in cpp
[11:29] <ikonia> no-sleep: the make file
[11:29] <ubuntu_> i best go and Overwriting the Windows bootloader :)
[11:29] <TridentPlus> i will be back real quick
[11:29] <ikonia> hjmills: most distros link gcc to cc
[11:29] <xtknight> Nielsken: i have to go again, but this should be in wireless documentation somewhere.
[11:29] <Nielsken> ok
[11:29] <Aggort> reformatting my "/" partition isn't reformatting my drive is it?
[11:29] <xtknight> !wireless | Nielsken
[11:29] <ubotu> Nielsken: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:29] <Nielsken> thanks a lot
[11:29] <hjmills> ikonia: oh ok - told you i didnt know much :D
[11:29] <ikonia> Aggort: its formatting your root file system
[11:29] <compengi> Aggort, instead of /home name it as hda1
[11:30] <heapme> and the ubuntu people say gnome is more stable than kde. so i dont think it's unrealistic for me to wonder which is the most stable desktop
[11:30] <mwe> heapme: there is no guarantee whatsoever that *anything* will work in ubuntu
[11:30] <phixnay> pike_: ok. In the meantime l'll see if anyone suggests anything on the forum. Thanks for your help anyway.
[11:30] <chico> back
[11:30] <ikonia> heapme: they don't say that, and its just personal opinion
[11:30] <TridentPlus> jrib: i am back
[11:30] <hjmills> heapme: i always found gnome to be more stable than kde but that is only my personal experience
[11:30] <no-sleep> ikonia: thx, just found it
[11:30] <ikonia> heapme: its mostly users that break it
[11:30] <Aggort> compengi: K, but reformatting for my root isn'
[11:30] <heapme> well debian people gaurentee that stable will be stable
[11:30] <jrib> TridentPlus: ok, delete /home/chico/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
[11:30] <compengi> Aggort, no reformat mean to format the selected partition
[11:30] <ColinT> Trying, with no luck what so ever, to install  hplip. Anyone who can help.
[11:30] <ColinT> Please.
[11:30] <Aggort> ty
[11:30] <Aggort> ty
[11:30] <Aggort> ty
[11:30] <Aggort> lol
[11:30] <compengi> Aggort, np
[11:30] <mwe> heapme: debian has no guarantee either
[11:30] <hjmills> what is the name of the mode VIM starts in?
[11:30] <TurtleBoots> hey guys
[11:31] <heapme> hjmills command mode
[11:31] <ikonia> hjmills: what do you mean
[11:31] <mwe> heapme: for anything as slackware doesn't either
[11:31] <compengi> Aggort, i prefer to format root and swap :)
[11:31] <heapme> press 'i' for insert mode
[11:31] <ekaeka> ohh, I now see why master volume is defaulted at 77% :|
[11:31] <Aggort> sure will then
[11:31] <PgR> ColinT: what's the problem (I've managed, so it can't be too hard!)
[11:31] <TurtleBoots> I've downloaded a few films and the lip sync seems to be ahead of the film... anyone ever seen this before and know why it might be?
[11:31] <mwe> heapme: In fact I don't know any linux distribution that guarantees you anything
[11:31] <jerp> KDE looks globby on the screen, I don't like the texture to their window maker's graphics
[11:31] <ikonia> TurtleBoots: bad codec
[11:31] <ColinT> PgR: Oh, don't say that :-)
[11:31] <compengi> Aggort, did you rename it from /home to hda1?
[11:31] <TurtleBoots> is it something to do with mplayer
[11:31] <Aggort> yes
[11:31] <J0HN-newb> i'm changing the resolution with that command in the terminal
[11:32] <heapme> mwe distro watch says that slackware is designed to be more stable than other distros because of not having dependecy issues and a few other things
[11:32] <cafuego_> TurtleBoots: If you purchase non-pirate copies that problem usually doesn't exist ;-)
[11:32] <Aggort> it's currently installing
[11:32] <J0HN-newb> but, it's not actually changing
[11:32] <compengi> Aggort, good then you are free to install
[11:32] <hjmills> ikonia: well it has 3 modes, insert (press i etc to get into), visual (press v) and the normal mode it starts in - whats the normal mode called?
[11:32] <ColinT> PgR: Well, I have tried to auto run it no luck.
[11:32] <Aggort> compengi: When I reboot will GRUB load?
[11:32] <ikonia> hjmills: ooh I see, command
[11:32] <heapme> and i j ust read on linuxquestions.org that debian stable is gaurenteed to not have broken things
[11:32] <TurtleBoots> ikonia: what u mean codec?
[11:32] <J0HN-newb> i noticed that the first time i did it, i hadn't actually checked the resolution i want
[11:32] <J0HN-newb> this time i did
[11:32] <mwe> heapme: that's crap. all distributions aim to be stable
[11:32] <ikonia> or oldschool "guide" mode
[11:32] <no-sleep> ikonia: another problem is that i am author f the software so what do i need to change that a user gets a makefile with 777 instead of 644?
[11:32] <TridentAplus> jrib:  how can i delete that
[11:32] <J0HN-newb> then i even selected the resolution with the refresh rate
[11:32] <TurtleBoots> cafuego_ the films were downloaded from torrentreactor
[11:32] <hjmills> ikonia and heapme thanks
[11:32] <J0HN-newb> and it's STILL at 800x600! :'(
[11:32] <heapme> mwe well i rtfm so it's not my fault that tfm is full of misinformation :p
[11:32] <PgR> ColinT: What's it say? And which printer is it?
[11:32] <cafuego_> TurtleBoots: yes?
[11:32] <J0HN-newb> do i need to restart the computer or something?
[11:32] <TridentAplus> it seems that i dont have .mozilla
[11:33] <pike_> J0HN-newb: that command will create a new /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. in order for that new file to be read your x server will have to be restarted alt-ctrl-backspace
[11:33] <ikonia> no-sleep: your not the author ??? otherwise you would have written the makefile
[11:33] <jrib> TridentAplus: same as anything else, right click and move it to the trash
[11:33] <cafuego_> no-sleep: makefile doesn't need to be 777, 644 is fine.
[11:33] <ikonia> hjmills: welcome
[11:33] <J0HN-newb> oooh
[11:33] <J0HN-newb> thanks
[11:33] <J0HN-newb> brb, i'm tryin that
[11:33] <pike_> J0HN-newb: np
[11:33] <TurtleBoots> cafuego_ you any ideas why the lip sync might be out?
[11:33] <Aggort> compengi: crap
[11:33] <ColinT> PgR: To do it manually. But it hangs for a very long time on Dependency and Conflict Reselution.
[11:33] <compengi> Aggort, after the install finished it will ask you to reboot and to remove the cd then after the reboot you will have to choose between starting up windows or linux (ubuntu)
[11:33] <jerp> john, I would
[11:33] <TridentAplus> but how do i get to that directory
[11:33] <no-sleep> ikonia: kdeveolop wrote it for me :)
[11:33] <no-sleep> *kdevelop
[11:33] <TurtleBoots> cafuego_ would using xine make a difference u think? currently using mplayer
[11:33] <TridentAplus> jrib:  is it hidden or what
[11:33] <ColinT> PgR: It's an HP 920C, and I can print but it is a very poor printing quality. Lots lots of ink and not too sharp.
[11:33] <ismail> still not working
[11:33] <jrib> TridentAplus: yes, .mozilla is hidden
[11:34] <ismail> :(
[11:34] <ismail> how do u log in as root
[11:34] <ikonia> ismail: you don't
[11:34] <ikonia> you login as a user
[11:34] <mwe> heapme: ubuntu LTS is *in my opinion* a fine choise if you aim for stability, though
[11:34] <jpass> heh
[11:34] <jevangelo> what can i use to load a lamp server on ubuntu desktop
[11:34] <Aggort> compengi: The attempt to mount file system with type ntfs in IDE1 master, partition #1(hda1) at hda1 failed.
[11:34] <cafuego_> TurtleBoots: sorry, but we're REALLY not going to help you watch pirated movies, mate. Sorry.
[11:34] <jpass> i was just reading about loggin in as root
[11:34] <Aggort> compengi: WTF DOES THAT MEANT? lol
[11:34] <ikonia> jpass: then you should know how to login as root then if you've just read about it
[11:34] <jevangelo> a lamp system
[11:34] <compengi> O.o
[11:34] <pike_> ismail: use sudo or if you really want you can enable the root account
[11:34] <jpass> i read you are not supposed to
[11:34] <kennyt> heh, ekiga's sound is broken out of the box w/ *, and twinkle is fine except for DTMF ... any good simple voip clients?
[11:35] <trinitrogen> How do I change the region code on K3B?
[11:35] <TurtleBoots> cafuego_ in all fairness I'm sure I'm not the only one in here to have user torrent sites!
[11:35] <ikonia> jpass: exactly - sorry I though it was you not ismail that asked
[11:35] <TridentAplus> jrib: i have done it
[11:35] <Aggort> compengi: that's what I got
[11:35] <ikonia> jpass: my mistake
[11:35] <TridentAplus> deleted
[11:35] <TurtleBoots> *used
[11:35] <jpass> oh
[11:35] <compengi> Aggort, did you make primary and extented partitions?
[11:35] <ryantmer> Any ideas why Thunderbird won't run? I have it installed, but when I click it in the menu, it doesn't open...
[11:35] <heapme> mwe ok. damn even the published books i'm readin are full of misinformation. reading 'ubuntu unleased' and it says that linux doesn't have good support for dvd writing yet
[11:35] <ismail> ok how do enter a folder with root permition
[11:35] <jpass> no problem
[11:35] <jrib> TridentAplus: ok, restart firefox and test the falsh version now
[11:35] <PgR> ColinT: Sorry old chap, didn't come across anything like that. Hang around here for a while, though - there's plenty of people cleverer than me!
[11:35] <jpass> i was actually saying it because i am very new to linux/ubuntu
[11:35] <Aggort> compenji: I guess no?
[11:35] <ryantmer> I've also tried from a shell, but it just pauses and goes to a new line
[11:35] <mwe> heapme: it has fair support
[11:35] <ikonia> ismail: change the permission
[11:35] <jpass> and i was just reading an article and then came into here
[11:35] <Twinxor> anyone played the native Alpha Centauri?
[11:35] <ismail> or change the permition of a filter from root to user
[11:35] <ismail> how
[11:35] <jpass> and the first thing i saw was something about logging in as root
[11:35] <jpass> anyway
[11:35] <cafuego_> TurtleBoots: Probably, but it's still not good press for Ubuntu, so not topical here. If you get help in private msg, that's fine.
[11:35] <Twinxor> I'm trying to get it to install but it complains about my glibc version
[11:36] <heapme> mwe i know i made a dvd fine with kde and even on the console with growisofs
[11:36] <compengi> Aggort, you need to make 97G as primary (which is now) and the rest of partitions a secondary
[11:36] <mwe> heapme: yeah
[11:36] <TurtleBoots> fair enough
[11:36] <compengi> as*
[11:36] <TridentAplus> jrib: it says I NEED To reinstall plugin
[11:36] <jpass> anyone multi-track record?
[11:36] <jevangelo> should i just use server
[11:36] <jevangelo> ?
[11:36] <jerp> a program called . regionset
[11:36] <Twinxor> it claims I have glibc 2.1, when that's certainly not the case
[11:36] <Aggort> copemgi: I did
[11:36] <ikonia> jpass: es
[11:36] <ikonia> yes
[11:36] <jpass> that is the main reason i am using ubuntu
[11:36] <pike_> ismail: for a root shell either sudo -s or sudo -i or for a single command sudo command
[11:36] <jerp> look it up
[11:36] <jpass> nice!
[11:36] <ismail> how do i change permistion
[11:36] <ColinT> PgR: Thanks. Know anyone in particular that might be free?
[11:36] <jrib> TridentAplus: what does this say:  readlink -f $(which firefox)
[11:36] <ikonia> ismail: do it through gnome
[11:37] <compengi> Aggort, i think no
[11:37] <jpass> i am pretty much blind but right now I have my laptop with a decent pcmcia sound card. got it all to work with the system but for some reason audacity does not work yet
[11:37] <jerp> get to know Synaptic 'search'
[11:37] <compengi> Aggort, check it again
[11:37] <PgR> ColinT: Nope - guess you just need to ask again... Better luck next time ;^)
[11:37] <Aggort> compengi: Hold on I am uplaoding the photo from gparted
[11:37] <ismail> ok so for windows partion its /media/hda1
[11:37] <mwe> heapme: I don't know if it's possible to fiddle with region codes, compress large movies to fit on the media etc easily though
[11:37] <ColinT> Help. I am trying to Install hplip, but it dosen't work fro me. Can anyone help?
[11:37] <Aggort> compengi: here http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/7249/screenshot1oe4.png

[11:38] <Aggort> compengi: What's wrong?
[11:38] <TridentAplus> jrib: it says /usr/lib/firefox/firefox
[11:38] <TurtleBoots> !ntfs
[11:38] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[11:38] <pike_> ismail: one problem with the way ubuntu mounts windows partitions is only root will have access.  you can sudo umount /media/hda1 then sudo mount -o umask=000 /dev/hda1 /media/hda1
[11:38] <TurtleBoots> !xine
[11:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xine - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:39] <compengi> Aggort, i think that hda2 and 3 are created as primary partitions
[11:39] <Aggort> compengi: it isntalled anyway
[11:39] <TurtleBoots> anyone know the media player xine (or am i spelling that wrong?)
[11:39] <Aggort> compengi: even though I told it to go back
[11:39] <CjHobgood> I have a question about using ubuntu 6.06 as a live cd, can anyone help me?
[11:39] <ikonia> TurtleBoots: what about it
[11:39] <ikonia> CjHobgood: ask
[11:39] <Aggort> compengi: now the install jsut stopped
[11:39] <Aggort> ............
[11:40] <Aggort> compengi: I am confused now
[11:40] <jrib> TridentAplus: ok... what does this say:  ls -l /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[11:40] <TurtleBoots> ikonia: it is xine isn't it? bot doesn't recognise it
[11:40] <CjHobgood> I put the Cd into the drive and the Cd loads fine, but is there a command to get it to boot into the live cd?  if i hit enter on the first option, it says "kernel loaded" but nothing happens
[11:40] <ikonia> TurtleBoots: what doesn't
[11:40] <ikonia> CjHobgood: thatats it loading
[11:40] <TurtleBoots> !xine

[11:43] <TurtleBoots> Falstius - thanks mate. thats all I was looking for! -> (hint hint ikonia)!
[11:44] <pike_> ismail: only read access im afraid.  it is possible to setup read/write see the link below

[11:44] <ikonia> TurtleBoots: why was it so important to get ubot to say it, I thought you wanted to know the package name
[11:44] <ColinT> Help. I am trying to Install hplip, but it dosen't work for me. Can anyone help? Alternatively does someone know how to abort a instalastion?
[11:44] <ubuntu_> what i mess i made of that
[11:44] <CjHobgood> ikonia: i did run a memtest and that failed on a lot of different memory adresses, would that prevent the kernel from loading correctly?
[11:44] <compengi> Aggort, start it again and when you will reach the step when you need to create partitions just make sure that you have primary and secondary partitions. if you don't then delete the both partitions and create them as secondary
[11:44] <ekaeka> does anyone know the package name for pyqt?
[11:44] <nikin> does anyone have any experience with installing wine from source for Edgy?
[11:44] <jontec> I have a major problem. I don't think that my connection is allowing me to upload files. You name it, I haven't been able to upload files to gmail, hotmail, transfer files across my network OR even sftp upload to a computer sitting right beside me! What is going on!?!
[11:45] <ikonia> CjHobgood: probably - thats a bad hardware error and as the livecd runs in memory its important ot have memory working
[11:45] <pike_> ismail: as a rule though might be better to have a parition for movies and music and such that is fat32 so both windows and linux can rw natively
[11:45] <Aggort> compengi: hwo do I knwo if theya re secondary
[11:45] <TurtleBoots> ikonia - I just wanted to see what the ubotu said - it usually provides pretty useful URL's to look up
[11:45] <ubuntu_> can you give me them links again please?
[11:45] <TridentAplus> jrib:  whats the next step
[11:45] <syd67ro> I want to run some commands as root. Where do I have to add them in order to be run each time I boot? I've added them in ./etc/rc.local but they weren't run
[11:45] <jrib> TridentAplus: ok... what does this say:  ls -l /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[11:45] <CjHobgood> ikonia: is there a way to reset the memory or something? or do I need new mem (I am trying to do a data recovery, i think the mem crashed windows)
[11:45] <pike_> ubuntu_: what was the link for?
[11:45] <ikonia> CjHobgood: new memory
[11:45] <ismail> hmmm can i resize my linux partition and make a fat32 drive safely?

[11:59] <Dodoria> ikonia, how I resolve this problem?
[11:59] <compengi> Aggort, you don't have to select it as home cause home is the root one, you need to name it as hda1
[11:59] <ikonia> Dodoria:why are you using the source packages, and these versions
[12:00] <Aggort> I eman the NTFS
[12:00] <ikonia> Dodoria: you could break your whole system doing this
[12:00] <Dodoria> ikonia, glib no have in apt
[12:00] <compengi> Aggort, yeah ntfs on is hda1
[12:00] <ikonia> Dodoria: glib is in apt

[12:00] <Dodoria> look
[12:00] <ikonia> glib is a set of libs
[12:00] <ikonia> its not an application
[12:00] <compengi> Aggort, the 36G is / (root) and 1G is swap (swap)
[12:00] <Aggort> NO I don;t want to erase Windows
