[01:47] <Pirate-King> ok what can I do to get it to work?

[01:48] <cellofellow> Pirate-King: find out what the chipset is, then try a driver to match.

[01:49] <T`2> which connection type?
[01:49] <Pirate-King> yeah but how do I install that driver..?  cause it craps out

[01:52] <cellofellow> a big printer like that should be postscript, IE practically driverless. If it isn't, then you've got a very windoze-centric office.
[01:52] <maxamillion> what kind of printer?
[01:53] <T`2> ok so i set it as postscript instead of the printer model
[01:53] <T`2> testing..
[01:54] <cellofellow> ah! Now I can't find a Windows XP driver for the iREZ. Maybe using a Nogatech driver will work, but Windows cares more about brands than chipsets I think.
[01:55] <T`2> maxamillion, HP LaserJet 4250

[04:29] <cellofellow> is there a way to make an Alternate CD out of a DVD.

[05:11] <magic_ninja> for some reason the repos aren't finding nvidia-kernel for the regular edgy drivers...
[05:11] <magic_ninja> what repo is it on
[05:11] <cellofellow> restricted I think
[05:12] <cellofellow> !info nvidia-kernel
[05:12] <ubotu> Package nvidia-kernel does not exist in any distro I know
[05:12] <cellofellow> :(
[05:12] <cellofellow> got that wrong
[05:12] <cellofellow> info nvidia-kernel-1.0.8776
[05:12] <magic_ninja> its like nvidia-kernel-1.0.8.7 or whatever
[05:13] <cellofellow> !info nvidia-kernel-1.0.8776
[05:13] <ubotu> Package nvidia-kernel-1.0.8776 does not exist in any distro I know
[05:13] <cellofellow> it's there. It's just a virtual package provided by the restricted-modules
[05:13] <cellofellow> so, restricted
[05:13] <magic_ninja> time to get dirty
[05:16] <magic_ninja> i have found nvidia-kernel-common

[05:50] <Pirate-King>  anybody know how to get isa sound cards to work?
[05:53] <ron_o> Pirate-King -  you have to find the driver for your sound card and then install it.
=== Jester45 [n=Jester45@d6-216.rt-bras.wnvl.centurytel.net]  has joined #xubuntu
[05:54] <ron_o> how old is your computer?
[05:54] <Pirate-King> athlon 500 era
[05:55] <ron_o> how old? I'm not familiar with athlon's.
[05:56] <Pirate-King> 5-6 years ago
[05:56] <ron_o> not that it matters. You need to look inside your case and find your sound card. Let me see some comamnds you might try.
[05:56] <ron_o> lspci      dmesg
[05:56] <ron_o> those might tell you something or maybe not.
[05:56] <Pirate-King> doesn't find it doing either
[05:57] <ron_o> try in root.
[05:58] <ron_o> I had to look inside my case and then search for it on the internet. It was a long process. :-/
[05:58] <Pirate-King> I looked in my case it is a sound blaster
[06:00] <ron_o> you need more info than that.
[06:00] <Pirate-King> doing a dmesg it finds it
[06:00] <ron_o> there are a lot of sound blaster cards, I do believe. It's strange that you might have a problem with sound blaster. It's so popular.
[06:01] <Pirate-King> because it is isa
[06:01] <Jester45> if i have a shell script and i have it owned by root should all the commands inside be sudoed?
[06:01] <ron_o> run aslaconf
[06:02] <ron_o> alsaconf .. sorry.
[06:02] <Pirate-King> command not found
[06:03] <ron_o> in root
[06:03] <ron_o> sorry.. damn... I thought I was zenwalk. :-/
[06:03] <ron_o> why xubuntu doesn't have alsaconf I don't know.
[06:04] <ron_o> I had problems too with an isa using *buntu.
[06:05] <ron_o> what I did eventually was run Knoppix which uses an alsaconf app and then I copied the config files to another distro.
[06:05] <ron_o> sorry, it's been a long time since I solved it. I can't help much more than that.
[06:06] <Pirate-King> ok np
[06:07] <Pirate-King> what is a graphical explorer?
[06:08] <ron_o> maybe a file manager with gui. ??
[06:08] <Pirate-King> ok
[06:11] <ron_o> I don't know why the ubuntu repository doesn't have alsaconfig app. Look for it. But if they had it they would be using it.
[06:11] <ron_o> probably.
[06:12] <Pirate-King> I think I might have it
[06:12] <ron_o> knoppix uses it.
[06:12] <ron_o> and its debian based.

[05:14] <amorphous_> Ahh... perfect!!!! thanks kalikiana - sorry for delay - didn't catch your posts
[05:14] <imon9> the problem is, some program i install cant be detected by add/remove OR synaptic coz i manually compile them, so i remove them manually, and the shortcut stay in the menu list
[05:14] <vidd_laptop> imon9, what you see in the menu list is the "smart menu"
[05:15] <imon9> so how to edit it?
[05:15] <vidd_laptop> you dont....you need to add to it
[05:15] <kalikiana> imon9: how about just editing the desktop files in /usr/share/applications?
[05:15] <imon9> u mean i can delete those safely, rite?
[05:16] <kalikiana> of course :)
[05:16] <imon9> it is a bit buggy from the menu though, how come my add/remove and a few more application no longer able to be lauch from there
[05:16] <kalikiana> by the way, checkinstall is a tool to create debian packages for custom compiled apps
[05:16] <imon9> can i fix it?
[05:16] <imon9> yah, i have checkinstall
[05:17] <kalikiana> imon9: what exactly is the problem/ error?
[05:17] <vidd_laptop> kalikiana, that will allow custom apps to show in menu?
=== somerville32 [n=somervil@ubuntu/member/somerville32]  has joined #xubuntu
[05:18] <imon9> the program is, now i choose say "add/remove program" from "xfce menu" but nothing come up, but it can be lauch from /usr/share/applications of course
[05:18] <kalikiana> vidd, checkinstall will only provide a way to remove custom installs like any existing package
[05:18] <imon9> but i want to fix the menu
[05:18] <imon9> btw, i dont understand how to uninstall with checkinstall
[05:18] <kalikiana> just search for the installed package in synaptic, aptitude or apt
[05:18] <imon9> i entered dpkg -r (pkg name.deb) but it say error
[05:19] <kalikiana> no
=== totalwormage [n=worm@225-131.surfsnel.dsl.internl.net]  has joined #xubuntu
[05:19] <kalikiana> you do ./configure && make && sudo checkinstall
[05:19] <kalikiana> the last one is important
[05:19] <imon9> yah..i did that
[05:19] <imon9> it create a deb installer for me
[05:19] <imon9> but after that, how do i UNINSTALL the program?
[05:20] <kalikiana> eventually after installing the resulting deb you can do e.g. 'apt-get remove NAME'
[05:20] <kalikiana> or use synaptic or aptitude
[05:20] <imon9> i think i only have synaptic
[05:20] <imon9> i dont think synaptic list all my programs though
[05:21] <imon9> are u telling me that checkinstall register the program to synaptic, does it? if so, that would be nice
[05:22] <imon9> kalikiana, u still there?
[05:23] <kalikiana> imon9: still here :)
[05:23] <kalikiana> in synaptic, it's in the category 'local' (or similar)
[05:23] <kalikiana> you can even search for it
[05:24] <imon9> so it will definately be there if i compile and install with checkinstall, is it?
[05:24] <kalikiana> yep
[05:24] <imon9> well, before checkinstall, i install LIVES video editor , but cant uninstall it coz synaptic dint detect it
[05:25] <imon9> so now that i know checkinstall will register to synaptic, that is much better
[05:25] <kalikiana> yep, that's what it's for :)
[05:25] <kalikiana> i gotta go for now
[05:25] <imon9> oh
[05:25] <imon9> thanks then
[05:25] <imon9> actually i got one more Q
[05:25] <imon9> but maybe someone else able to answer me
[05:26] <imon9> thanks...thanks a lot
[05:26] <kalikiana> see you :)
[05:26] <vidd_laptop> ask away
[05:26] <vidd_laptop> ill have an answer for ya
[05:27] <vidd_laptop> (it might even be right)
[05:27] <imon9> good, i am running xubuntu, but install some aps with kde based
[05:27] <vidd_laptop> lol
[05:27] <vidd_laptop> ok
[05:27] <imon9> the problem is . SCIM cant type unicode stuff in the aps
[05:27] <vidd_laptop> SCIM?
=== kalikiana is now known as kalikiana|away
[05:27] <imon9> after since i been avoiding kde aps
[05:27] <imon9> like i want to type chinese in kopete, but cant
[05:28] <imon9> SCIM is the input method
[05:28] <vidd_laptop> do you have the lang support apps for KDE installed?
[05:28] <imon9> how do i do that in xubuntu
[05:29] <vidd_laptop> the same way you would in KDE
[05:29] <imon9> anyway, i can read chinese which is on the list
=== vidd_laptop never liked KDE so im not very familiar with them
[05:29] <imon9> i use KDE once, but the thing is, i cant seems to find how to set stuff for KDE in xubuntu
[05:30] <imon9> btw, the fonts of kde aps in xubuntu are smaller too, and the color is abit off too
[05:30] <vidd_laptop> let me check synaptic....
[05:30] <imon9> i want to configure those all, but no configuration program i think
[05:30] <vidd_laptop> what is your desktop?
[05:31] <vidd_laptop> is it xfce or kde?
[05:32] <imon9> it is xfce now
[05:32] <imon9> but some aps is kde based, like amarok, kmess, kopete, konsole
[05:32] <imon9> i remove console mainly coz the font is like nightmare
=== arle [n=arlequin@r200-40-29-230-dialup.adinet.com.uy]  has joined #xubuntu
[05:33] <imon9> now on my list is exclusively gnome based aps, except for amarok
[05:33] <imon9> i am looking for a faster alternative for amarok now too
=== TheSheep had to install half of the kde just to be able to enable antialiasing :/
[05:34] <imon9> KDE is crazy stuff....
[05:34] <arle> Hello. I can boot the live 5.04 Ubuntu but not the 6.10 Xubuntu :-\
[05:35] <imon9> aMSN which is based on some tfe also look bad on xubuntu
[05:35] <vidd_laptop> imon9,  did you ever install language-pack-kde-zh?
[05:35] <imon9> nope
[05:35] <vidd_laptop> that is the chinese language pack for kde aps
[05:35] <imon9> will it help?
[05:35] <vidd_laptop> it should
[05:35] <vidd_laptop> it will let all your kde aps use chinese
[05:36] <arle> My PC is a 700Mhz AMD with 524 mb RAM and a GeForce4 MX 440 compatible with 64 Mb graphics card

[05:36] <vidd_laptop> arle, ok
[05:36] <imon9> i am not saying i want the whole aps became chinese interface, i just want to type in chinese for some "searc" area and to msg other in IM
[05:37] <imon9> i hope u are right...i will go synaptic to install that
[05:37] <vidd_laptop> imon9, you STILL need it for kopete to read chinese
[05:37] <imon9> thank for that
[05:37] <imon9> what about setting for appearence of those kde aps?
[05:37] <vidd_laptop> works for one, works for all
[05:37] <imon9> what do i need?
[05:37] <vidd_laptop> that i cant help with.....
[05:37] <arle> vidd_laptop: The Xubuntu 6.10 cd boots great but even in the low graphic mode I get a 'zipFS' related error
[05:38] <arle> or something like that... :-(
[05:38] <vidd_laptop> live or alt cd?
[05:38] <arle> vidd_laptop:  Don't think it's alternate
[05:38] <arle> It's the default xubuntu download link....
[05:39] <TheSheep> arle: have you checked the cd for defects?
[05:39] <TheSheep> arle: there is an option at the boot menu
[05:39] <arle> TheSheep: Thanks, but the SO boots smoothly on another PC
[05:40] <arle> with even less RAM and a worse graphic adapter
[05:40] <TheSheep> arle: different cd drives can have different sensiility to defects
[05:40] <vidd_laptop> sounds like you have an older cdrom in this machine then the other
[05:40] <arle> TheSheep: Do you think do I even need to check it?
[05:40] <arle> vidd_laptop: You are right!
[05:41] <arle> In fact, in the 2nd PC I have to boot from a CD-RW drive which doesn't works really good
[05:41] <TheSheep> arle: I check md5 after downloading the iso and then do the cd check after burning -- always, it saves me a lot of time
[05:41] <vidd_laptop> arle, swap the cdrom drives between the machines and it will run fine
[05:41] <vidd_laptop> or reburn it at the lowest speed you can
=== nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal]  has joined #xubuntu
[05:41] <vidd_laptop> but if you are looking to install anyway, i recomend that you use the alt cd....always
[05:42] <arle> OK. I have a DVD reader on the 2nd PC, so I'm going to switch the IDE controllers in order to allow booting from the newer DVD reader
[05:42] <arle> vidd_laptop: Why alt CD...?
[05:43] <vidd_laptop> cuzz the live cd is fine for running a live cd system, the alt-cd lets you acually install from jump street
[05:43] <vidd_laptop> without waiting for the system to boot
[05:43] <arle> vidd_laptop: like the good old days? ;-)
[05:43] <vidd_laptop> but that is my opinion
[05:44] <arle> Actually I want a bootCD 'cause I've lost my root partition and don't want to format the whole disk but reinstall and be able to use old /home /var et cetera...
=== vidd_laptop will never use the live cd install
[05:45] <vidd_laptop> you can do that from the alt cd
[05:45] <arle> vidd_laptop: how do you post in italics???
[05:45] <arle> vidd_laptop: Thanks, I'll get the alt cd then

[05:47] <arle> thanks both of you
[05:47] <imon9> vidd_laptop, i just want to know , how do i log in as root?
[05:48] <arle> imon9: you have to set a root password
[05:48] <vidd_laptop> imon9, if you REALLY want to know, pm me
[05:48] <imon9> it seems ubuntu OR maybe only xubuntu dint have that previlage
[05:48] <imon9> i sis set the password already

[05:48] <imon9> i us su all the time in terminal, but i want to delete and manipulate file in thunar
[05:49] <TheSheep> sudo Thunar
[05:49] <vidd_laptop> then type sudo thunar

[05:51] <vidd_laptop> let me get your IP addy so i can show your the errors of your ways
[05:51] <imon9> i practically type out every file name /or folder befoere this
[05:51] <vidd_laptop> =]

[05:56] <vidd_laptop> then i dont know why kopete is being stupid for you
=== vidd_laptop dont use kde apps

[05:57] <vidd_laptop> imon9, do you know what a root-kit is?
[05:57] <imon9> wait, i dun like to make just one launche for thunr with that :(
[05:58] <imon9> eg "file system" or "home" icon on destop
[05:58] <imon9> can i make them gksudo Thunar too?

[05:59] <TheSheep> imon9: yes, or you can just add them to the bookmarks
[06:00] <imon9> i am sorry, i dint realise u were telling me that just now
[06:01] <imon9> the thing about make my system windows-like is somewhat true, i dont a point when there is already a security login
[06:01] <imon9> sorry, i dun mean to start a fight, but i would like to do my daily work on my system with the previlage of root coz i do a lot of testing for many program for now
[06:02] <vidd_laptop> imon9, that is all the more reason to NOT run as root
=== vidd_laptop does know how to enable root login
[06:03] <imon9> maybe i am a noob, but i dint get ur point here, can u explain?
[06:03] <vidd_laptop> you are running experimental programs
[06:04] <imon9> well, i think xubuntu is like a new toy for me :D
[06:04] <imon9> if i screw up, i probably just reinstall the whole thing
[06:04] <vidd_laptop> these programs may try to change system files in a way that will take out your system, hijack it, or other bad stuff
[06:04] <imon9> i am quite happy with xubuntu now, many posibilities, i dual boot my machine but thinking to permenantly stick with xubuntu
[06:05] <vidd_laptop> with only user access, the damage is limited, as root, your toast
[06:05] <imon9> ic
[06:05] <imon9> now u make a lot of sense
[06:05] <imon9> wait, not really
[06:05] <imon9> all my personal files is in "user" mode anyway
[06:05] <downer> i thought he was making sense the entire time.
[06:06] <imon9> so if there is a psyware, worm, virus try to steal, that is the only thing i dont want them to steal
[06:06] <vidd_laptop> root mode has access to your ENTIRE system, including users
[06:06] <imon9> well, u got some point there, i wont deny
[06:07] <imon9> especially important if u need to maintain system in company environment
[06:07] <imon9> system down = majore loss
[06:07] <imon9> but for a home user like me, i think personal information is more inportant
[06:07] <vidd_laptop> tell you what, ill help you set up your system, and then later ill jack your system and turn it into a porn server
[06:08] <imon9> but i dont see windows or linux doing any protection on it

[06:09] <imon9> of course, it make a lot of work, so u are right
[06:09] <vidd_laptop> your other boot is windows
[06:09] <imon9> i wont mess with u, really
[06:09] <imon9> yah

[06:09] <MattJ> Exams exam exams
[06:09] <vidd_laptop> ALSO owned

[06:10] <imon9> but i dint mount my XP partition
[06:10] <vidd_laptop> MattJ, still playing with blender?
[06:10] <imon9> anway, i think it is possible
[06:10] <vidd_laptop> thats ok imon9 i'd do it myself
[06:10] <cellofellow> I'm on Ubuntu Edgy LiveDVD on my dad's Lappy, and want the wireless to work. I haven't ever gotten wireless to work on this lappy on Ubuntu livecd, but Kubuntu Dapper LiveCD does work. (It's wirelessassistent.) How do I get wireless working in an easy, GUI fashion?
[06:10] <imon9> since u can mount it from it
[06:10] <imon9> hehehe..yah, i just realise :p
[06:11] <imon9> so the main idea is to get it, then everything else is fun
[06:11] <vidd_laptop> yep
[06:11] <imon9> pretty impressive thinking, maybe i ought to try it too :D
[06:12] <imon9> i mean i can write lots of script too
[06:12] <vidd_laptop> the only way to stop me is to power down, disconnect from the internet and do a complete format of ALL your drives
[06:12] <MattJ> vidd_laptop: Not for a bit
[06:12] <imon9> i dun think disconnect from internet work once all script is running
[06:12] <MattJ> vidd_laptop: I have some exams still to go, and then... freedom :)
[06:12] <imon9> if i am planning a hijack, i would go in, put script, let it run
[06:13] <vidd_laptop> need to be disconnected to prevent scripts from getting re-install protocols
[06:13] <imon9> then even if u disconnect internet, u are dead..hahahah
[06:13] <imon9> i mean something like a batch run would be nice
[06:13] <imon9> i would love to clean someone harddrive if the really mess with me
[06:13] <vidd_laptop> MattJ, when you get your degree?
[06:14] <imon9> get the IP, sneak in, put in the script, run it..hohohhooh....u got me excited suddenly

[06:22] <imon9> usually i type in my user password for synaptic, but today it start asking my "root" password, is it normal?
[06:23] <MattJ> I would love a way to see what commands people execute in ssh sessions
[06:23] <vidd_laptop> how do you launch synaptic?
[06:23] <imon9> from the xfce menu
[06:24] <vidd_laptop> imon9, no, that is NOT normal
[06:25] <imon9> btw, can u just double check for me if fontconfig and fontconfig-config is needed for normal working of xubuntu (i mean just cross-check from your synaptic that is) coz i want to unintall them now
[06:26] <vidd_laptop> this is the kind of weird stuff that happens when you run "su" in terminal rather then sudo
[06:26] <vidd_laptop> then uninstall them
[06:26] <vidd_laptop> if something you need to run requires it, you will be told before you uninstall
=== vidd_laptop has them both
[06:27] <imon9> holy mother, when i mark fontconfig for uninstallation, it list the whole computer aps connected to it
[06:27] <vidd_laptop> yeah...it does
[06:27] <imon9> argh, maybe i just make for reinstall
[06:27] <imon9> maybe the newer version is buggy
[06:28] <vidd_laptop> newer version of what?
[06:28] <imon9> newer version of fontconfig... 25. from their website
[06:29] <vidd_laptop> i wait till things make it into the repos
[06:29] <imon9> i added the thunar in root mode, it ask me password before proceed which is good
[06:29] <vidd_laptop> yeah
[06:30] <vidd_laptop> im off for lunch
[06:30] <vidd_laptop> bbl
[06:30] <imon9> just wondering, if i am already in thunar in some folder, and suddenly i need to delete something with root permission, can i like make thunar log-in or something?

[06:50] <Schijnn> Are there any 3rd-party repos with more recent versions of packages than the official ones?
[06:51] <vidd_laptop> fontpd, did you pastebin your sources.list file?

[06:55] <fontpd> basically
[06:56] <fontpd> there's alot of points of failuter in that setup, so i'm wondering if the apt-get error message is inaccurate or what.
[06:57] <fontpd> fail like my spelling at this hour.
[06:58] <vidd_laptop> have you been able to ping ip address?
[06:58] <fontpd> ping what?
[06:58] <vidd_laptop> the url of the repos

[07:34] <vidd_laptop> no, you have to delete the ext partitions and swap and all the free space should show up as one large section
[07:35] <vidd_laptop> you highlight it, and choose "configure free space"
[07:35] <vidd_laptop> it will not make a seperate / and /home partition for you, but it will set up the swap for you

[07:52] <vidd_laptop> ya sure its in all the way?
[07:53] <cellofellow> what kernel did that version of DSL have?
[07:53] <mr_> it's all way in. DSL has an old 2.2 kernel, i think...

[07:54] <vidd_laptop> maybe his card is not compatible with the 2.6 kernel?
[07:54] <cellofellow> I know DSL has 2.4, and DSL-Not has 2.6.
[07:54] <cellofellow> perhaps. Or maybe there's some module we're missing.
=== vidd_laptop will be back...need to pollute my lungs some

[07:58] <cellofellow> modprobe I think.
[07:58] <cellofellow> But if the module is loaded, it should detect, udev create a dev file, and you be on your way.
[07:59] <mr_> is there a chance that a wrong module has been detected?
[07:59] <cellofellow> what did lspcmcia say again?
[08:00] <mr_> vidd_laptop: I get Socket 0 Brifge: [yenta_cardbus]  Socket 1 Bridge [yenta_cardbus]  Socket 1 Devide 0 [no driver] 
[08:00] <mr_> sorry, old message, I mean "@cellofellow"
[08:01] <cellofellow> cardbus. it seams like that means the PCMCIA slot is the one with driver issues, not the card.
[08:01] <cellofellow> whatabout lspci?
[08:02] <mr_> Hm, the cardbus bridge is detected: "TexasInstzruments PCI1450".
[08:03] <mr_> and it workes on dsl.
[08:03] <cellofellow> hmm. can you do dmesg | grep pcmcia ?
[08:05] <mr_> dmesg: "registering new device pcmcia 1.0"
[08:05] <cellofellow> that's it?
[08:05] <mr_> yepp. strange...
[08:05] <cellofellow> dmesg | grep pc
[08:05] <cellofellow> widen the search
[08:06] <mr_> hm: "PCMCIA card inserted into slot 1"
[08:06] <cellofellow> Dapper, right?
[08:07] <mr_> nope, 06.10, edgy

[09:27] <ape1> yep that seemed to have worked
[09:27] <maxamillion> ape1: awesome
[09:28] <ape1> one more question
[09:28] <maxamillion> ape1: you might need to do "sudo aptitude install menu" to get the fluxbox menu populated
[09:28] <Spasticteapot> Alternately, does anyone know where I can get GT2K in a .deb format?
[09:28] <maxamillion> ape1: shoot
[09:28] <ape1> how can i see the screen resolution im running
[09:28] <ape1> i think this laptop supports 1280x1024
[09:28] <ape1> but i dont think its running it
[09:29] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: in the terminal do "man iwconfig" <--that will give info on configuring wifi
[09:29] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: why would you need to download gtk2? ... xfce (the desktop environment used in xubuntu) is written in gtk2
[09:29] <Spasticteapot> Thanks.
[09:30] <maxamillion> ape1: ooooo, i don't know for sure how to see that in fluxbox
[09:30] <maxamillion> ape1: there is a gui tool in the settings manager of xfce that tells you though
=== ChaKy [n=chaky@22-36.dsl.iskon.hr]  has joined #xubuntu
[09:31] <Spasticteapot> One of the GT2K libraries for a wifi manager is missing, at least.
[09:31] <Spasticteapot> How do I get my wireless card to connect to any wireless network in range?
[09:31] <PuMpErNiCkLe> 'xrandr' will show you your current screen res.
[09:32] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: do "ifconfig" and tell me what the wireless interface is called (eth1, wlan0, etc.)
[09:32] <maxamillion> PuMpErNiCkLe: interesting ... good to know :)
[09:32] <Spasticteapot> wlan0
[09:33] <ape1> im at 1024x768
[09:33] <maxamillion> ok ... "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid any"
[09:33] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: ^^^
[09:33] <ape1> is there any way to bump it up?
[09:33] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: and to see what wireless networks are in range do "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan"
[09:33] <maxamillion> ape1: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:33] <ape1> the only res' on the manager are up to 800x600
[09:34] <Spasticteapot> Tried it - Error: unrecognised wireless request "any".
=== Maximilian1st [n=maximili@35.20.62.81.cust.bluewin.ch]  has joined #xubuntu
[09:34] <maxamillion> ape1: in there, towards the bottom there will be a list of resolutions, put 1280x1024 next to 1024x768 on each line it is listed, save and restart X ... or the whole machine, which ever you prefer
=== Maximilian1st hi all
[09:35] <Spasticteapot> Neat trick!
[09:35] <Spasticteapot> I never knew about that one.
[09:36] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: uhmmm... not to sure why it would say that ... its even a listed example command from the man page
[09:36] <Spasticteapot> Must have made a mistake.
[09:37] <maxamillion> possible .. just copy and paste the command i wrote (without the quotes)
[09:37] <ape1> can i restart x within bash?
[09:37] <maxamillion> ape1: close all programs, save all documents, etc. and then do ctrl+alt+backspace ... that key combo will restart X
=== Maximilian1st Is also sleepy.
[09:38] <ape1> ok, lets give it a shot
=== ape1 [n=steven@cpc1-rdng9-0-0-cust839.winn.cable.ntl.com]  has left #xubuntu []

[09:38] <maxamillion> but ... he doesn't really _need_ that information
[09:39] <Spasticteapot> Well, I've entered it - it seems to work.

[09:39] <Spasticteapot> sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid any

[09:39] <Spasticteapot> And I'm still not apparently connected to anything.
[09:40] <Spasticteapot> Anyone here?
[09:40] <ape1> thats weird
[09:40] <ape1> i dont think that worked
[09:40] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: if its encrypted you have to know the essid ... so do ... "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan" pick the one you want and do "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "whateverYouPicked" key "passwordHere"
[09:40] <maxamillion> ape1: ermmm... :(
[09:41] <Spasticteapot> It's unlocked
[09:41] <Spasticteapot> So can I enter it minus the "key" part?
[09:41] <maxamillion> yeah
[09:42] <Spasticteapot> What's the "copy" key combination for BASH?
[09:42] <maxamillion> Spasticteapot: then do "sudo dhclient wlan0" to get a dhcp assigned ip address
[09:42] <ape1> its not a major problem, its just the text renders weird
[09:42] <ape1> not as clear as id hoped
[09:42] <maxamillion> ape1: yeah ... i know what you mean ...
[09:42] <maxamillion> ape1: i had some resolution problems before
[09:43] <maxamillion> i gotta run, i'm at work and someone broke a machine on the seconds floor ... bbl
[09:43] <vidd_laptop> probably a windows machine
[09:43] <Spasticteapot> Maxamillion, I know your pain.
[09:43] <Spasticteapot> :)
[09:44] <Spasticteapot> dhclient says "no working leases in persistent database"
[09:44] <vidd_laptop> your dhcp is full?
[09:44] <Spasticteapot> But my Windows (yes, I know, yuck - I need to learn Linux before I install it!) laptop can connect just fine.
[09:45] <vidd_laptop> try setting a static ip
[09:45] <Spasticteapot> I don't know - it's not my router.
[09:45] <Spasticteapot> Keyword being "not mine".
[09:45] <Spasticteapot> We've got permission from the owner ...who, of course, has no idea how it works.
[09:45] <vidd_laptop> Spasticteapot, that is OK....i sponged off the neighbor's internet for a while
[09:45] <Spasticteapot> Heh - we actually have permission for sponge.
[09:46] <Spasticteapot> Permission for sponge! Wow, my grammar sucks.
[09:46] <vidd_laptop> i dont know how to set it in CLI....
[09:46] <vidd_laptop> run sudo network-admin
[09:47] <Spasticteapot> connection-manager should fix this, I think.
[09:47] <Spasticteapot> However, it says "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libwxgtk2.6-0"
[09:47] <vidd_laptop> do you know the ip of the router?
[09:47] <Spasticteapot> I've got my Linux lappy and a flashdrive.
[09:48] <Spasticteapot> not really.
[09:48] <Spasticteapot> I just know the SSID.

[10:02] <ape1> reboot!
[10:02] <ape1> brb
[10:02] <Spasticteapot> In laymans terms ... what does setting my IP address do?
[10:02] <vidd_laptop> it ignores the dhcp server of the router and tells the router "This is me"
[10:02] <Spasticteapot> The problem is that the router seems to be ignoring it.
[10:03] <Spasticteapot> No connection at all.
[10:03] <vidd_laptop> have all the settings set?

[10:48] <Spastic_Teapot> user@ubuntu:~/wusb11/WUSB11v4_08272004/Drivers$ sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[10:48] <Spastic_Teapot> Except, of course, ben@four instead of user@ubuntu
[10:48] <Spastic_Teapot> Four is the name of the PC, Ben is the generic user name.
[10:49] <vidd_laptop> you type in sudo mousepad /etc/network/interfaces
[10:49] <vidd_laptop> the ......$ is already there
[10:49] <Spastic_Teapot> OWhat's that buisness with ~/wusib11/WUSB11...
[10:49] <Spastic_Teapot> Oh.
[10:50] <vidd_laptop> and you need to replace gedit (not installed on your system) with mousepad
[10:50] <vidd_laptop> the code you see is just copy/pasted from someone's terminal window
[10:50] <Spastic_Teapot> Oh.

[10:51] <vidd_laptop> then skip that line
[10:52] <Spastic_Teapot> Should leave Wireless-Key1 blank, or just eliminate that line?
[10:52] <Spastic_Teapot> Oh, okay.
[10:52] <vidd_laptop> if it dont work, we can come back and enter it with just blank

[10:59] <Spastic_Teapot> Bother it all...now the network config menu's gone
[11:00] <Spastic_Teapot> Well, this is getting annoying.
[11:00] <Spastic_Teapot> Why the frell won't my wifi card work?
[11:01] <vidd_laptop> im back
[11:01] <vidd_laptop> sudo ifup wlan0
[11:02] <Spastic_Teapot> Interface WLAN0 already configured.
[11:02] <Spastic_Teapot> But it still won't work.

[11:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about it all! - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:03] <Spastic_Teapot> Stupid crappy wireless card.
[11:03] <Spastic_Teapot> I wish the "people in charge" had gotten off their asses and given us a proper internet connection.
[11:03] <Spastic_Teapot> In the mean time, I'm stuck mucking about with wifi adapters.
[11:03] <vidd_laptop> iwconfig
[11:03] <Spastic_Teapot> ESSID off/any.
[11:04] <vidd_laptop> gggrrrrr
[11:04] <Spastic_Teapot> Yeah, that's my thoughts as well.
[11:04] <Pobega> What have you done so far?
[11:04] <Spastic_Teapot> Tried to set up a tempermental wifi adapter in Xubuntu.
[11:04] <Spastic_Teapot> It's a WUSB11v4 under NDISwrapper.
[11:04] <Pobega> And how far have you gotten?
[11:05] <Spastic_Teapot> Regardless of what I do, it won't bloody connect to the unlocked network!
[11:05] <vidd_laptop> do the steps in step 8 and reboot
[11:05] <Spastic_Teapot> I installed the driver; I've tried mucking about with /etc/network/interfaces, I've tried everything.
[11:05] <Pobega> You still need an ESSID though.
[11:06] <Spastic_Teapot> WWell, I'm trying to reinstall.
[11:06] <Spastic_Teapot> Yah, I've entered it.
[11:06] <Pobega> Did you try gnome-network-manager?
[11:06] <Spastic_Teapot> XFCE means no Gnome.
[11:06] <Pobega> I'm using Xubuntu and gnome-network-manager
[11:06] <Spastic_Teapot> Network-manager requires a few packages I don't have, apparently.
[11:06] <Pobega> Are you sure? I got mine no problems.
[11:06] <Pobega> First thing I downloaded on my fresh install of Xubuntu
[11:07] <Spastic_Teapot> A GT2k library is missing, which in turn needs another library, which in turn needs another....
[11:07] <Spastic_Teapot> Hmm...I'm just using GT2k Network-Manager.
[11:07] <vidd_laptop> Pobega, he has no internet connection
[11:07] <Spastic_Teapot> Not Gnome-Network-Manager.
[11:07] <Pobega> Oh, none at all?
[11:07] <vidd_laptop> right
[11:07] <Spastic_Teapot> Yah...I'm stuck with moving .deb's with a flash drive.
[11:07] <Pobega> Ah crap.
[11:07] <Spastic_Teapot> Rebooting Xubuntu...
[11:07] <Spastic_Teapot> Done.

[11:09] <vidd_laptop> flash drive
[11:09] <Pobega> Also, you need the ESSID, don't you?
[11:09] <Pobega> That's the network's ID

[11:57] <age6racer> hi guys... I have a couple of launchers that start apps under wine. but these apps need to be run with sudo. How do I do the command for this?
[11:58] <PuMpErNiCkLe> Use 'gksudo' and it will give you a popup requesting the password.
[11:59] <age6racer> great thanks
[12:00] <Jester45> or make a script owned by root that is pionted to from launcher
[12:03] <somerville32> Jester45: That wouldn't work
[12:03] <age6racer> the gksudo thing did give me the popup, but the application doesnt run afterwards??
[12:04] <somerville32> age6racer: What is the command you are executing?
=== dredhammer [n=dredhamm@pool-71-247-15-204.nycmny.east.verizon.net]  has joined #xubuntu
[12:04] <age6racer> gksudo wine c://path_to_application.exe
[12:04] <somerville32> try:
[12:06] <somerville32> Terminal -x sudo wine C://path_to_application.com
[12:08] <age6racer> yes that worked. But I'd rather not have the terminal running like that.
[12:08] <age6racer> if possible.
[12:08] <Jester45> try my way
[12:09] <somerville32> Jester45: That won't work
[12:09] <Jester45> why not
[12:09] <somerville32> Just because the file is owned by root, doesn't mean it is executed as root
[12:09] <Jester45> well my sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade works fine
[12:10] <somerville32> Thats because you're using sudo
[12:10] <age6racer> jester45 can you give me thhe script you used pls? I don't really know how to do them.
[12:10] <vidd_laptop> is it possible to just have the launcher as sudo wine C://app.exe?
[12:10] <somerville32> yes
[12:10] <somerville32> just have gksudo wine C://app.exe
[12:10] <Jester45> what a bout on the launcher propies pressing run in terminal?
[12:11] <age6racer> will that open a terminal?
[12:11] <somerville32> Yes
[12:11] <Jester45> he said that doesnt work the popup appers but after entering pass the app doesnt start
[12:11] <somerville32> "gksudo wine C://app.exe" <-- will not
[12:11] <somerville32> Doesn't mean it is wrong
[12:12] <vidd_laptop> age6racer, what app you running in wine that you need god rights for?
[12:13] <age6racer> Photoshop and Illustrator. Don't ask why.. I have no idea.
[12:13] <age6racer> doesnt need it on my ubuntu desktop. But on my xubuntu laptop install it does
[12:14] <age6racer> sudo I mean... not the adobe products
[12:14] <vidd_laptop> then your wine must be set up wrong (i would think)
[12:15] <vidd_laptop> did you just copy/past the files from one machine to the othere?
[12:17] <vidd_laptop> if you did, then you would just need to chown them
[12:17] <vidd_laptop> or am i mistaken?
[12:18] <age6racer> No I installed wine from synaptic
[12:19] <somerville32> That isn't what he is asking
[12:19] <vidd_laptop> right...but the apps your trying to run....did you install them via wine
[12:19] <age6racer> yes
[12:20] <age6racer> In order to install them I had to run wine as sudo or it didnt have permission to write to the directories
[12:20] <vidd_laptop> THAT is the cause
[12:20] <vidd_laptop> you (should) be able to chown the entire directory and be able to run as user
[12:20] <age6racer> I don't mind running wine with sudo. I just don't want a command line open when I do. That must be possible somehow
=== maxamillion [n=adam@ngl-1-14.shsu.edu]  has joined #xubuntu
[12:22] <vidd_laptop> or set the read/write/xecutee to all for the entire directory
[12:22] <Jester45> age6racer: you could be opening your system to window's viruses
[12:22] <age6racer> by running wine you mean?
[12:22] <Jester45> age6racer: if you give the wine apps sudo power
[12:22] <age6racer> oh i see
=== priit__ [n=Priit@58.247.250.205]  has joined #xubuntu
[12:23] <age6racer> yeah. I only run those two apps. I tink it'll be okay. I don't have an urge to use internet explorer or Outlook! haha
[12:23] <Jester45> no wine is fine when hte programs can only change the user stuff but when they get access to the whole system and if your using things other than games and standalone programs then you might be fine but you could still get sthings
[12:24] <maxamillion> age6racer: wine is an attempt to be a complete windows emulation, so if a virus affects windows, it will in theory affect wine in the same way... now as long as your wine execution has limited privilages then (again, in theory) the worse that could happen is you need to remove wine and your emulated C: drive directory, but if you give it sudo privilages it could potentially frag the entire system
[12:24] <Jester45> age6racer: yes i figured you didnt want to use IE or somthing useless like that
[12:24] <Jester45> maxamillion: its not emulation
[12:24] <age6racer> Jester45: I wasn't being sarcastic. Just a little joke.
[12:25] <vidd_laptop> IE is VERY useful.....makes ppl appeaciate firefox
[12:25] <somerville32> age6racer, Doesn't matter. There are known exploits for both of those programs.
[12:25] <PuMpErNiCkLe> In theory, that's an issue.  In practice, there are only a handful of viruses compatible with wine.
[12:25] <PuMpErNiCkLe> (Yes, there were a series of tests done on that.)
