[12:00] <AWOSDev7360> oh
[12:00] <kupesoft> someone please give me some words of courage,
[12:01] <Viglen> mmm
[12:01] <Viglen> cool
[12:01] <AWOSDev7360> Viglen 150-200
[12:01] <Viglen> thanks people
[12:01] <MoxJet> seems my xorg.conf has modified itself, i'll replace it with one of my numerous backups
[12:01] <broedjj> hi
[12:01] <Viglen> been very helpful
[12:01] <rellik> AWOSDev7360, yes rails is there but not rubygems or other necesary components
[12:01] <Viglen> :)
[12:01] <abo_> kupesoft, come on boys, come on boys
[12:01] <AWOSDev7360> kupesoft, it's okay.  really it is.  I don't know what it is...but it's okay :)
[12:01] <AWOSDev7360> Viglen no problem :)
[12:01] <AWOSDev7360> MoxJet yeah good idea :)
[12:01] <high-bass> lol i wish there was a ubuntu group here so i can just goto someone to resolve my issue !
[12:01] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, everything just... I cant access any of the files from my /home/halhorn directory...
[12:01] <kupesoft> Thank you!
[12:01] <shatrat> high-bass: Im not sure what the mii module is but it looks like the driver for your card is loaded.  Im not sure what to check next.
[12:01] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, rather, I cant see them
[12:01] <pbureau> jojoman02,  the last guy I talked to abouit the intel 220G card simply went to intel.com web site, did a search in the support section and downloaded/installed the llinux driver for that card
[12:02] <pbureau> s/220g/2200g
[12:02] <AWOSDev7360> kupesoft no problem!  what are we encouraging you for?  trying to install Kubuntu on a 486?  from experience, it won't work :D
[12:02] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, Christ, that just raped me...
[12:02] <YoshiG3> Hi, has anyone gotten a Radeon 9000 to work with ubuntu?
[12:02] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, sudo umount /home/halhorn/linstore
[12:02] <AWOSDev7360> YoshiG3 me!  but it's an IGP
[12:02] <high-bass> ya im lost shatrat ... :/ .. but the drivers that are loaded are the ones that came with ubuntu thou
[12:02] <pbureau> anyone print on a printer on a network (printer has its own IP address ) ? I am trying to get ubuntu to print to an HP2600 (tested as USB and it works, but I need to print over network.
[12:02] <YoshiG3> AWOSDev7360: Do you mean AGP? What's an IGP?
[12:02] <Ha1> Ok, everythings all better now, EnsignRedShirt. I can see everything again.
[12:02] <Ha1> Wait
[12:03] <AWOSDev7360> YoshiG3, Integrated Graphics Processor.  as in, embedded on motherboard
[12:03] <Ha1> When you typed, mount -t ext3 /dev/hdc1 /home/halhorn/, did you mean to add linstore on the end?
[12:03] <AWOSDev7360> Ha1 yes
[12:03] <YoshiG3> AWOSDev7360: Ah. Crap....
[12:03] <Ha1> Oh, dear
[12:03] <Ha1> Lets retry
[12:03] <RememberPOL> Sweet I solved my issue (of FLV video not playing in Xubuntu 6.10 due to outdated ffmpeg [fixed in fiesty-7.04, not being backported because ffmpeg breaks api/abi] ) by downloading http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/9/flash_player_9_linux_dev.tar.gz then extracting libflashplayer.so and flashplayer.xpt from /flash_player_9_linux_dev/plugin/debugger/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz/install_flash_player_9_linux/ int
[12:03] <AWOSDev7360> Ha1 no worries...    umount /home/halhorn
[12:03] <EnsignRedshirt> ha1: Ummm....  yes, sorry.
[12:03] <badstu1> Hey... anyone here with some exp from virtualbox ?
[12:04] <netzen> who can help me to install xgl or a 3d desktop on a Inte Graphic card?
[12:04] <hairulfr> !feisty
[12:04] <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
[12:04] <AWOSDev7360> netzen depends.  which one?
[12:04] <netzen> AWOSDev7360 what witch?
[12:04] <AWOSDev7360> Intel--  410-930 is suckyrails - MVC ruby based framework geared for web application development
[12:04] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, oh dear, I just did that. Its showing up with the right amoutn of free space &c... Excepting that its telling me I dont have permissions to access it
[12:04] <AWOSDev7360> oops
[12:04] <AWOSDev7360> stupid paste
[12:04] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, this happened last time I tried mounting it, too
[12:04] <MoxJet> ok that's better, I now have my old keyboard layout and 1600x1200 res and so on
[12:04] <AWOSDev7360> Intel graphics cards -- 410-930 is sucky.
[12:05] <netzen> Intell 900
[12:05] <qhartman> why are user names with "." in them disallowed? A large number of enterprises have standardized on "first.last" for usernames, and this limitation is somewhat hurtful. FWIW, Suse allows them and seems to handle them ok...
[12:05] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, but it does show up as /home/halhorn/linstore ?
[12:05] <LjL> would anybody know why OBEX transfers on IrDA would result in a "no route to host" error, when irdadump shows the device sending packets?
[12:05] <pbureau> netzen,  have you cheked intel.com for linux drivers ?
[12:05] <Ha1> The folder contents could not be displayed. You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "linstore". - EnsignRedShirt [I am signing everyone with your name because Ive gotten reprimanded about it before] 
[12:05] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, yes, that is correct, it shows up, I just can access it
[12:05] <Ha1> can't
[12:05] <MoxJet> what does a (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open /dev/wacom: No such file or directory error message when doing startx mean? I get six of them. How can I fix it?
[12:06] <pbureau> MoxJet,  have you tried to create the directory in question ?
[12:06] <netzen> pbureau I did not
[12:06] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, what not? How do I go about getting permissions?
[12:06] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, do sudo umount /home/halhorn/linstore
[12:06] <pbureau> netzen,  its an intel 900 ?
[12:06] <LjL> MoxJet, it's a known and harmless issue, however you can fix it by removing wacom related stuff from /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:06] <YoshiG3> So, no one has EVER gotten an AGP Radeon 9000 to work with Ubuntu?
[12:06] <netzen> yes pbureau
[12:06] <qhartman> MoxJet: it means you don't have a wacom pad installed correctly. If you don;t actually have one, you can remove the wacom portions of the X config. The errors are harmless though, so there'w not really much point in it.
[12:07] <AWOSDev7360> qhartman awilcox@NAMERICA1:/proc$ sudo useradd a.test.for.qhartman
[12:07] <AWOSDev7360> awilcox@NAMERICA1:/proc$
[12:07] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: There are additional options that can be given to the mount command--just have to find the right one(s)...
[12:07] <pbureau> netzen, hang on..lmc
[12:07] <MoxJet> pbureau: no I did not... isn't it to be filled with lots of interesting and mysterious files?
[12:07] <AWOSDev7360> qhartman it worked on *MY* Dapper
[12:07] <netzen> 10x
[12:07] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, unmounted
[12:07] <Smirnov> YoshiG3, ATI is the suck for linux
[12:07] <YoshiG3> Smirnov: My GeForce card wouldn't work with it either!
[12:07] <qhartman> AWOSDev7360: if you use the Ubuntu tools, particularly during installation, it fails.
[12:07] <LjL> MoxJet, leave /dev/ alone...
[12:07] <YoshiG3> It seems you need a fairly new card to use ubuntu. This sucks.
[12:07] <AWOSDev7360> qhartman, I just used useradd on the command line...
[12:07] <Smirnov>  YoshiG3 my geforce works fine *shrug*
[12:07] <MoxJet> LjL, qhartman ok thanks I'll give it a look
[12:08] <AWOSDev7360> YoshiG3 !?  Radeon 9000 should work fine
[12:08] <YoshiG3> TWICE I have tried to use ubuntu, two different computers, and no success
[12:08] <Smirnov> YoshiG3, i certainly wouldnt try a gf 8800 with it..heh
[12:08] <YoshiG3> I know LjL should remember
[12:08] <Ch1ppy> hey, I updated libc a while ago, and now I keep getting an unmet depency with libc6-dev... can anyone help me out?
[12:08] <MoxJet> LjL: aye
[12:08] <pbureau> netzen,  oh its a graphic accelerator card... hang on
[12:08] <netzen> yes
[12:08] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: I'm taking a look at 'man mount
[12:08] <pbureau> netzen,  if you do lspci do you get a chipset info ?
[12:08] <deg0nz> ich geh penn... gn8 @ll !!! (amsg)
[12:08] <MoxJet> I don't have a wacom.. uh I'll try comment it out in xorg.conf
[12:08] <YoshiG3> AWOSDev7360: But with absolutely no accelleration. Like having no drivers.
[12:08] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, thanks
[12:08] <qhartman> AWOSDev7360: right, I'm curious why the Ubuntu tools disallow it. It seems there must be a reason...
[12:08] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: at the moment
[12:08] <netzen> pbureau wait pls
[12:09] <kowakowalski> moin moin
[12:09] <netzen> pbureau
[12:09] <netzen> i paste it on private ok?
[12:09] <pbureau> netzen,  sure
[12:09] <dope> i'm tryin to install ssh on a server installation of ubuntu but it keeps asking me to insert the disc.  why won't it just get it off the internet?
[12:10] <AWOSDev7360> YoshiG3...rather than explain what you think you need...explain what the problem is.  please.  what HAPPENS in Ubuntu that makes you think that Radeon 9000 isn't supported?
[12:10] <pbureau> dope apt-get ssh perhaps ?
[12:10] <Sardinianguy88> uffa
[12:10] <AWOSDev7360> dope, try looking at your /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:10] <dope> it keeps asking for me to insert the cd
[12:10] <Sardinianguy88> chi mi sa aiutare?
[12:10] <LjL> MoxJet: i believed there was a URL about that, but i can't find it. still anyway, just removing the stuff that looks wacom related should work, just make a backup first
[12:10] <dope> i already enabled all the commented out sources in the source list
[12:10] <AWOSDev7360> dope if you weren't connected to the internet while installing, it doesn't think you have a connection at all
[12:10] <Agrajag> dope: comment out the cdrom line in /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:10] <pbureau> Sardinianguy88,  eo creo espania esta y channel #ubuntu-se
[12:10] <Smirnov> if it says look up for something(5) for more information, how do you get man to look at 5?
[12:10] <AWOSDev7360> dope you did?!  eesh...thats the ONLY time my apt did that to me
[12:11] <warbisshop> Hi
[12:11] <AWOSDev7360> Smirnov man 5 something
[12:11] <dope> ah
[12:11] <Sardinianguy88> how i can change the server i this program? help me, i need to put tiscali
[12:11] <Smirnov> AWOSDev7360, thanks
[12:11] <AWOSDev7360> Smirnov np :)
[12:11] <YoshiG3> Well, I try installing the Proprietary ATI drivers, and the program will not RUN! It says "Bad Argument" or something
[12:11] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Let me check something with the gurus here...
[12:11] <warbisshop> does any of you guys have a Laptop with a X700 Ati mobility graphics card ?
[12:12] <shatrat> YoshiG3: you mean the fglrx installer?
[12:12] <YoshiG3> shatrat: The one from the ATI website.
[12:12] <dope> Agrajag: that did it thx buddy
[12:12] <netzen> pbureau did u get what i paste ?
[12:12] <shatrat> YoshiG3: are you following a how-to for ubuntu or just using their generic instructions?
[12:12] <badstu1> warbisshop: yup.. :P
[12:12] <AWOSDev7360> warbisshop how old is that card?
[12:12] <AWOSDev7360> I have some kind of Radeon from 2003
[12:12] <YoshiG3> shatrat, the correct instructions. BUT, it says "Bad SUbstitution"
[12:12] <Ch1ppy> I am having a problem with a libc6 dependency, can anyone help me?
[12:13] <AWOSDev7360> I believe it's an 8 or 9x series
[12:13] <pbureau> yep
[12:13] <warbisshop> 4 - 3 years i beleive
[12:13] <YoshiG3> shatrat: Says like line 165 in teh code or something
[12:13] <shatrat> what command are you using to launch the fglrx shell script?
[12:13] <AWOSDev7360> okay well my laptop is from 2003....anyways warbisshop what is your question?
[12:14] <EnsignRedshirt> Will changing the owner and group of the mount point (to halhorn, in this case) work?  That is if the mount point  /usr/halhorn/linstore is owned by halhorn, and he does: mount /dev/hdc1 /usr/halhorn/linstore, will he have complete r/w access to the disk?
[12:14] <rafase282> hi
[12:14] <warbisshop> the problem i got it. when i insert my ubuntu live cd , my consoles and my graphic shell is all distorted i got all kinds of colored lines
[12:15] <warbisshop> so my console isnt a console more like a piece of art
[12:15] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, its /home, not /usr
[12:15] <shatrat> YoshiG3: according to the ubuntu wiki you need the option --buildpkg Ubuntu/edgy after the installers .run command
[12:15] <AWOSDev7360> warbisshop cool, I like art!  :)  but anyways, try in Safe Graphics mode on the live CD menu
[12:15] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Oops, that's right.
[12:15] <Ch1ppy> so my adept keeps trying to install libc and libc-i686, but produces an error every time, can no one help?
[12:15] <shatrat> YoshiG3: I suggest using this how to, it worked for me on the lappy, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[12:15] <rafase282> I need help with vmware
[12:15] <Ha1> And its /dev/hdc3, too, if its any help. Not being pendantic, I njust think you need all the details, EnsignRedshirt
[12:16] <LjL> !ask | rafase282
[12:16] <ubotu> rafase282: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:16] <YoshiG3> shatrat: Well, when I run lspci, I see two "Ati Technologies". One is a "Radeon RV250 IF" and one is just "Radeon RV250"
[12:16] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Oh boy...  I expect you'll /ignore me any second :)
[12:16] <NkZ> Greetings.
[12:16] <rafase282> I installed it, but i sent me a problem when I try to run the vmware-config.pl

[12:17] <shatrat> tsoler: hi tsoler, whats shakin?
[12:17] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, oh, yeah, thats me, Il just ignore all the help and such because you dont have perfect familiarity with my system :-p
[12:17] <warbisshop> ok trying it, hope it works; why the hell didnt i think of that :/
[12:17] <tsoler> i think almost well

[12:18] <tsoler> i think there is problme with xorg
[12:18] <jesterea> Hi, I got a question, I'm running Ubuntu 6.06 on my Mythtv - Box. I want GDM to log me in automatically, I set it in gdm.conf and gdm.conf-custom, but it only works when i restart gdm manually, not on boot... any ideas why?
[12:18] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: I have only mounted disks owned by root.  I know what you want to do can be done, and probably with just one or two options, but I don't want to screw it up, so I'm hoping someone else can also chime in.
[12:18] <NkZ> #K3b is empty
[12:18] <shatrat> tsoler: Did you just recently install the ubuntu server?  I think you would have much better learning if you installed the full version of ubuntu
[12:18] <tsoler> when asked for resollution i entered 1900x
[12:18] <Ch1ppy> HELP: I cannot do anything in adept because of an unmet dependency, can anyone help????
[12:19] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, I have all day, trust me. I can wait for them to.
[12:19] <shatrat> tsoler: if you dont already have a bunch of data and stuff on it.
[12:19] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Actually, I have a partition here that I can try it with.
[12:19] <tsoler> i just installed desktop with apt get as you suggested
[12:19] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, if youre willing to risk it
[12:19] <jrib> Ch1ppy: do you know how to use apt-get?
[12:19] <minimec> shatrat: Hi. Little question. Do you see any 'advantage' using a the self-compiled fglrx driver?
[12:19] <AWOSDev7360> NkZ it is?
[12:20] <Ch1ppy> jrib: yes
[12:20] <AWOSDev7360> NkZ oh :P yeah you're right
[12:20] <NkZ> Yep, I did /J #K3B and it's empty.
[12:20] <AWOSDev7360> ask on #kubuntu
[12:20] <jrib> Ch1ppy: try the same thing in apt-get.  The pastebin your command and the output
[12:20] <Ch1ppy> jrib: I keep getting an unmet libc6 dependency
[12:20] <warbisshop> AOWdev i got the same effect :(
[12:20] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Not much of a risk really. I don't plan on formatting or even writing anything.
[12:20] <xerox_> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[12:20] <tsoler> but i think xorg needs configuration
[12:20] <jrib> Ch1ppy: add /etc/apt/sources.list to your paste as well
[12:20] <tsoler> i need to reenter resolution
[12:20] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, alrighty then, give it a crack, good luck. Thanks for all this, too
[12:21] <shatrat> minimec: there is no self compiled FGLRX driver.  If you install it yourself you compile the interface bit of it, but most of it is binary. Installing yourself can be the only way to get brand new versions.  Depends on how current a repository you can get for it I guess
[12:21] <tsoler> hoe do i get xorg config from command line
[12:21] <rafase282> what can I do?
[12:21] <_`XeOn_> any knows how to install hamachi client?
[12:21] <shatrat> tsoler: use this "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"  the resolutions are down in the last part of it
[12:21] <Ch1ppy> jrib: http://pastebin.ca/327451
[12:22] <_`XeOn_> !hamachi
[12:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hamachi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:22] <minimec> shatrat: But... For the radeon 9000 card that other guy has, the driver of the ubuntu repo should do... Don't you think?
[12:22] <shatrat> _`XeOn_: what you want to know about is VPNs I believe
[12:22] <_`XeOn_> how to install it
[12:22] <abird> #hamachi
[12:22] <TheOneMono> Hi - I'm not sure about the etiquette of IRC, I'm a first timer here - but does anybody able to help me troubleshooting a slow bootup / GNOME startup? It's something to do with the network interfaces.
[12:22] <tuzoid> .
[12:22] <_`XeOn_> i need it to play age of empires
[12:22] <shatrat> I believe the "ati" driver should be fine on a 9000,  and the "fglrx" is probably broken on it anyway
[12:23] <TheOneMono> Or at least, the system log seems to think so.
[12:23] <NkZ> Any Idea about that K3B Issue?
[12:23] <anti_system32> sala en espaol
[12:23] <shatrat> _`XeOn_: hamachi is a windows program fo rsetting up VPNs, virtual private network
[12:23] <tsoler> shall i give this from ubuntus rescue mode? i mean i cant get to terminal
[12:23] <abird> XeOn: try #hamachi
[12:23] <warbisshop> Even in safemode i got a kinds of colors running trough eachother :(. Has anyone ever gotten  the same problem ?
[12:23] <NthDegree> TheOneMono, you can relax when it comes to etiquette, no-one will go "ZOMG DIE NOW!!!!!" or anything :D
[12:23] <sentinelxx> Has anyone had any experience getting 5.1 sound 2 work when using a Creative Audigy 5.1 card?
[12:23] <TheOneMono> lol
[12:23] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Did you use sudo to create linstore in your home directory?
[12:23] <_`XeOn_> i know but can be used in linux too
[12:23] <minimec> shatrat: I have an old radeon 9000 running here with the 'ubuntu-fglrx'. It works.
[12:23] <Ha1> No, just mkdir
[12:24] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK.
[12:24] <Ha1> When I used sudo, it made it root only
[12:24] <pc12> hola?
[12:24] <pc12> hi
[12:24] <jrib> Ch1ppy: have you installed glibc outside the package manager?
[12:24] <shatrat> HI sugar plum
[12:24] <YoshiG3> Should I have more than one "SubSection "Display"" in my xorg?
[12:24] <warbisshop> i guess i'm screwed then :(

[12:24] <Oly> yea. I need help* trying install ubunta desktop and right after it gets on the screen checking file systems it goes blank

[12:25] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: So you created linstore (not with sudo), and then, when you mounted the disk, you did not have permission to access it?
[12:25] <shatrat> Ch1ppy: I saw someone post a workaround for that in the General section of the ubuntuforums.org for that upgrade problem. cant remember exactly what it was

[12:27] <MMC> HI?
[12:27] <_`XeOn_> oh well no1 can help tho
[12:27] <shatrat> TheVault: there isnt a "Drivers" folder.  Installing a driver for wireless is gonna depend on what model card you have.  I suggest you google the card model number + ubuntu and look for a how-to

[12:32] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, what would the full command be?
[12:32] <soundray> NkZ: you are misspelling that nickname.

[12:33] <tsoler> shatter: please correct me . I boot on recovery mode , i then give sudo nano/etc/X11/xorg.config on command line but nothing happens . Why?
[12:33] <TheOneMono> The laptop has been booting really slowly, and I eventually figured out that gconf was doing odd things. That is fixed now, but if you look at http://pastebin.ca/327461 that has the part of the log that is showing the slowdown.

[12:33] <_`XeOn_> LjL: ok ty anyways
[12:33] <jrib> tsoler: nano/etc/X11/xorg.config is not a command

[12:37] <kkerwin> Hi. Tried asking this question in #openoffice, but there isn't any activity and very few people on the channel. I'm looking for a function in OpenOffice similar to Excel's "Data Analysis" tool. Specifically, I need full linear regression anaylsis of plotted points, including estimating uncertainty in intercept and slope.
[12:37] <MMC> I was used window but now i'm in fall love of linux: X
[12:37] <_`XeOn_> how do i install a program that i downloaded in zip
[12:37] <Vom> I found my 64bit version of 6.06
[12:37] <_`XeOn_> whats the command used?
[12:37] <Vom> Is it any good ?
[12:37] <jrib> _`XeOn_: what program
[12:37] <Oly> Goodgerster:  Does that mean i need to take out my card till i install ubunta? maybe why it keeps crashing on me?
[12:38] <slyfox> goodgerster: But the folders that are written in Russian - I see this "????????"  instead of filenames
[12:38] <bruenig> fall love is good
[12:38] <_`XeOn_> jrib: dofus
[12:38] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: And the last time, you used the option -t ext3  ?
[12:38] <SentineLxx> _`XeOn_, extract the files
[12:38] <goodgerster> Oly: no, it supports nearly all cards but not very quickly until you install the proper driver
[12:38] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, yes
[12:38] <SentineLxx> then in terminal move to that directory, once inside do these commands:
[12:38] <MMC> yeah fight is good is in fall love but of a program no a person: P_ ahaha I'm crazy: P_
[12:38] <NkZ> cpkl: Working beautifully, I officially love all of you.
[12:38] <SentineLxx> ./configure  then make  then make install
[12:38] <Oly>  goodgerster: what do u mean not very quickly? i've ben staring at this for 30 min

[12:39] <warbisshop> if i have questions when i use kubuntu can i get support in this channel aswell ?
[12:39] <goodgerster> slyfox: very odd. perhaps they're encoded in a non-unicode character encoding? try typing in cyrillic, it should work (in which case, it's likely a char encoding error)
[12:39] <lynucs> warbisshop, yes
[12:39] <soundray> kkerwin: have you looked at OOo help for the LINEST function?
[12:39] <goodgerster> Oly: try using the various safe modes
[12:39] <warbisshop> or are it 2 different builds
[12:39] <Natacha> bonne nuit

[12:41] <pbureau> printer question- I have managed to print on my network printer by sharing it on another pc and printing to that pc share, is there a way to  print directly to the printer IP instead on ubuntu?
[12:41] <slyfox> goodgerster_away: it works, so it is the problem with the folder then ?
[12:41] <OrangeOrange> how can i make it back to normal, so wen i type "gconftools" it pop up the configuration editor?
[12:41] <bruenig> YoshiG3, in response to problems, ok, but just throwing it out there is not a sustainable practice
[12:41] <goodgerster_away> slyfox: yes, the folders are written in a non-unicode encoding
[12:41] <jrib> OrangeOrange: gconf-editor is what you are looking for
[12:41] <Smirnov> why is my /etc/auto.smb a bash script?????
[12:41] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, I just did it then and no error in console this time, but still no access to it through Nautilus
[12:41] <lynucs> pbureau, if you have a print server ,yes
[12:41] <goodgerster_away> slyfox: ubuntu supports only unicode without extensive hacking, as far as I know
[12:42] <YoshiG3> bruenig: I'm sorry, I just searched for many hours trying to get this card to work, and that's the only thing that worked, I saw many others having the problem, just tryin to help :D
[12:42] <OrangeOrange> jrib: thanks.. was confused
[12:42] <lynucs> pbureau, or if it IS a network printer
[12:42] <slyfox> Smirnov: Do you use autofs ?! !!
[12:42] <pbureau> lynucs,  but the printer is on the network with its on IP address
[12:42] <lynucs> then you can
[12:42] <NkZ> Thanks for the help
[12:42] <OrangeOrange> i want to copy a file over a folder.. however i dont have perimisssion.. wat to do under GUI..
[12:42] <NkZ> See yas around!
[12:42] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, good.  I didn't understand how anything you've done could have corrupted the disk.
[12:42] <Smirnov> slyfox, im trying to, but everything im looking at says to edit the auto.smb but its a friggin bash script
[12:42] <pbureau> lynucs,  I must be a moron cause I tried to do it and it dont work... whats the trick then
[12:42] <bruenig> OrangeOrange, use sudo mv, or do gksudo nautilus to get a root file manager
[12:42] <simbios> does ubuntu has the hibernate function?
[12:43] <bruenig> simbios, yes but some have problems getting it to work from what I have seen
[12:43] <jrib> OrangeOrange: what are you trying to delete?
[12:43] <simbios> oh
[12:43] <Ha1> EnsignRedShirt, so were back on track with it still being possible?
[12:43] <lynucs> pbureau, dunno, i didn't have to use any tricks. it worked :D
[12:43] <OrangeOrange> nothing just adding a splash.png
[12:43] <slyfox> Smirnov: I got autofs working, but need additional help with it, give me a monet
[12:43] <pbureau> lynucs, okay how did you set it up then using cups? IIP ? what ?
[12:43] <jrib> OrangeOrange: why would that require copying a file over a folder?
[12:43] <lynucs> pbureau, with which orig do you want to print
[12:43] <MMC> Linus: X
[12:43] <OrangeOrange> jrib: i think its locked under a directory.....
[12:43] <Vommy> Ha1 can you see my PMs ?
[12:44] <jrib> !splash | OrangeOrange
[12:44] <ubotu> OrangeOrange: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[12:44] <pbureau> lynucs,  what you mean by orig ?
[12:44] <Ha1> Vommy, yes I can
[12:44] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Yes.  I did basically the same thing here with a disk a mine, and I was able to access the disk. Clearly, something is different on my system, but it should be simple to do.
[12:44] <EnsignRedshirt> s/a mine/of mine/
[12:44] <Vommy> Well, you still want to talk with me with PMs ?
[12:44] <lynucs> pbureau, sorry for type, i mean prog
[12:44] <kittyhawk> greetings
[12:44] <Ha1> Vommy, nah, it was all wrong anyway. Dw about it.
[12:44] <pbureau> lynucs,  assuming the Ip for the printer is 192.168.1.2 how do you configure it ?
[12:44] <Ha1> EnswignRedshirt, so, any idea whats the difference?
[12:44] <Vommy> dw?
[12:45] <kittyhawk> apt-get is yielding a 403 forbidden for us.archive.ubuntu.com
[12:45] <OrangeOrange> jrib: yea i know... but i think its locked under this directory (keyname) "apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image"
[12:45] <Vommy> Well Ha1, Which distro are you using?
[12:45] <lynucs> pbureau, run gnome-cups-manager
[12:45] <MMC> hey u zorro are u latin?
[12:45] <jrib> OrangeOrange: what do you mean "locked"?
[12:45] <OrangeOrange> jrib: or i type my dir wrong?
[12:45] <sharperguy> what to i do if apt (running from synaptic) crashes and freezes because its a bad idea to xkill it
[12:45] <zorro> MMC: no.
[12:45] <lynucs> pbureau, then choose networkprinter
[12:45] <OrangeOrange> jrib: if i edit my splash key
[12:45] <bruenig> kittyhawk, just worked for me
[12:45] <Ha1> /ignore Vommy
[12:45] <Ha1> Heheh, joking
[12:45] <Vommy> :(
[12:45] <soundray> pbureau: if you use the ipp protocol, you have to fill in a queue name in addition to the IP. That depends on the printer. Here it was pr1 on a Canon.
[12:46] <lynucs> pbureau, then IPP or LPD.. one of them will suit
[12:46] <MMC> zorro is a word in spanish k:P
[12:46] <Vommy> You ignore all teh newbs who ask for help ? :-b
[12:46] <zorro> MMC: what doea it mean?
[12:46] <zorro> does*
[12:46] <OrangeOrange> jrib: "name" is grey uneditable only value is editable i put in /home/jason/splash.png... doesnt work.. used the other splashes
[12:46] <soundray> Vommy: no
[12:46] <OrangeOrange> jrib: other default splash
[12:46] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, so, any idea what to do next?
[12:46] <Vommy> Anyway, I took the quiet mode off the installation and it jammed on the part "Creating system logs" or something
[12:47] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: I'm looking at the mount options now...
[12:47] <jrib> OrangeOrange: does the key value now say /home/jason/slash.png?
[12:47] <bef> I'm looking to get help installing SAMSUNG monitor drivers :] 
[12:47] <OrangeOrange> yes
[12:47] <pbureau> soundray okay but the printer is not running a queue its on the network direct
[12:47] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, k
[12:47] <MMC> My english is bad i dont know explain you... but zorro is a animal
[12:47] <kittyhawk> hm, I did an apt-get update and it seems to have fixed it.
[12:47] <gleamnite> On a freshly installed and networked copy of Ubuntu Server, how does one install a gui?
[12:47] <lynucs> pbureau, which printer do you have
[12:47] <bruenig> bef, I have never seen anyone have their monitor not detected
[12:47] <zorro> MMC: is it AN animal or does it just mean "animal" ? :)
[12:47] <Vommy> ffs you <__<
[12:47] <soundray> pbureau: your printer has an integrated network print server, which runs a queue.
[12:47] <bruenig> gleamnite, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop for the standard gui package
[12:47] <OrangeOrange> jrib: so..
[12:48] <pbureau> lynucs,  HP photosmart 2600 (works on usb or print from shared)
[12:48] <Ha1> bef, same, I HAVE a Samsung monitor
[12:48] <Vommy> Does someone use 64 bit distrobution of breezy
[12:48] <pbureau> sound ray... 9100 ?
[12:48] <goodgerster> Vommy: no, it's crap :P sorry
[12:48] <MMC> yes it's a animal...but no mean animal...
[12:48] <MMC> : D
[12:48] <bef> bruenig: it is identified, but I'd like to get the drivers working so it's at its best ;)
[12:48] <EnsignRedshirt> But let me ask this to the channel: If the mount point is owned by a user, and sudo is used to mount a disk to the mount point, should the owner be able to access the disk through the mount point with the original permissions of the mount point?
[12:48] <Vommy> goodgerster yup, i have it on rom, just thought if it would be any better nowadays
[12:48] <bruenig> bef, what is it not doing
[12:48] <soundray> pbureau: what?
[12:48] <gleamnite> bruenig, I have tried that and it returned a failure message...
[12:48] <MMC> Fox
[12:48] <zorro> MMC: cool! which language? :)
[12:48] <goodgerster> Vommy: nope. still no multiarch, I'm afraid
[12:48] <MMC> yeah this is fox...
[12:48] <Vommy> Okay
[12:49] <bruenig> gleamnite, and that message was...
[12:49] <MMC> spanish
[12:49] <zorro> :D
[12:49] <Vommy> Well, goodgerster are you running on 6.10 ?
[12:49] <zorro> thanks.
[12:49] <MMC> : D
[12:49] <gleamnite> I'll give it another shot, sorry, it was last night and I was too tired to remember.
[12:49] <bef> bruenig: colour isn't at its best
[12:49] <goodgerster> Vommy: yeah, on a 64 bit processor with 32 bit ubuntu
[12:49] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: no
[12:49] <pbureau> soundray the iip wants a /hostsname/printer/name  I only know the IP address
[12:49] <bef> YoshiG3: permission to query?
[12:49] <gleamnite> Just checking that was the right command, for now.
[12:49] <Vommy> Okay, which videocard do you have?
[12:49] <bruenig> bef, mess around with the monitor's buttons
[12:49] <jrib> OrangeOrange: ok, so name your splash.png to jason.png and copy it to /usr/share/pixmaps/splash/  then cahnge the key value to splash/jason.png
[12:50] <goodgerster> Vommy: an nVidia Gefore 7600GT
[12:50] <sharperguy> Apt has stopped in the middle of unpacking something, how can i close it without messing up the database?
[12:50] <bef> bruenig: I'm not mentally challenged ;)
[12:50] <Vommy> mkay. Ever used ati ?
[12:50] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: Is the umask option the correct way to allow the user to access the disk, once it is mounted?
[12:50] <YoshiG3> bef: huh?
[12:50] <OrangeOrange> jrib: so im correct :> its locked
[12:50] <lynucs> pbureau, did you try LPD?
[12:50] <bef> YoshiG3: may I query you?
[12:50] <YoshiG3> bef: YOu mean MSG? Sure
[12:50] <goodgerster> sharperguy: press ctrl-z then repeat the operation. it won't bugger the database
[12:50] <soundray> pbureau: I would look for a clue as to the queue name on the other machine where you've got it to work.
[12:50] <EnsignRedshirt> ha1: Umount the disk again: sudo umount /home/halhorn/linstore
[12:50] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt. Question. Isnt 0222 for NTFS drives [Windows] ?
[12:50] <bruenig> bef, it is just that I spend a lot of time in here and have never seen somebody with a monitor problem, very odd
[12:50] <jrib> OrangeOrange: I don't know what you mean by "locked".  But the key's description explains the path is a relative one
[12:50] <pbureau> soundray,  the other machines are windows boxes... no queue
[12:51] <Vommy> goodgerster can you update 6.06 to 6.10 ?
[12:51] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: 0222 is not even a value umask, I don't think.
[12:51] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, Umounted
[12:51] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: no, look at uid and gid mount options. Better yet, allow users to mount the partition by using the 'users' option in /etc/fstab.
[12:51] <Vommy> or whats breezer's version :b
[12:51] <bef> bruenig: not so much a problem, I just want it as efficient and crisp as possible. thanks for the help anyhow
[12:51] <Vommy> Or in otherwords, is dapper any good?
[12:52] <soundray> pbureau: I'm sure there is, although you may have to dig deep, in the registry or so.
[12:52] <goodgerster> Vommy: yeah, type "sudo update-manager -c -d"
[12:52] <pbureau> soundray,  lookign at the printer under network info I get  Host Name:  	 HPC48811:Ip 192.168.1.2
[12:52] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: Adding an entry to fstab was the next step.  There isn't an entry for it yet; we're just trying to get it mounted from the command line.
[12:52] <pbureau> lynucs,  nope...
[12:52] <Vommy> goodgerster yeah, well atm the proplem is that im not running on linux cause 6.10 wont install
[12:52] <pbureau> lynucs,  using the gnome printer manager
[12:52] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: just skip that, and add an fstab entry.
[12:52] <goodgerster> Vommy: let me guess. it won't show any partitions, or tells you it's got no root partition
[12:53] <Powha> Hi I have just installed ubunit 5.10 i think. I did the installation with grub from windows 2000, I originally wanted to install xubuntu. But grub did want to load the vlinuz file. So I changed to an old linux file. Is it possible to update ubuntu 5.10 to 6.10 from within ubuntu? update-manager don't seem to work.
[12:53] <bef> YoshiG3 - please see PM :]  thanks
[12:53] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: OK, sounds good.
[12:53] <soundray> pbureau: try pr0, pr1, lp0 and lp1
[12:53] <pixelmonkey> anyone here running VMWare 5.5 on Ubuntu and fixed an issue where VMWare insists on falling back on its own GTK libraries rather than using Ubuntu's?
[12:53] <Vommy> goodgerster nope, I havent got that far.
[12:53] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: New plan :)
[12:53] <Vommy> Jams when finding system logs or something, at the startup of instalation
[12:53] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Go to /etc
[12:53] <pbureau> soundray,  those are apps ?
[12:53] <Ha1> k
[12:53] <Ha1> Done, EnsignRedshirt
[12:53] <goodgerster> Vommy: try the alternate disc
[12:54] <Vommy> Yeah im just looking for it :b
[12:54] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: For now take a look at fstab with this command: cat fstab
[12:54] <kazuka> now it wont crash
[12:54] <kazuka> weird
 pbureau: if you use the ipp protocol, you have to fill in a queue name in addition to the IP. That depends on the printer. Here it was pr1 on a Canon.
[12:54] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: That will just dump the file to the terminal
[12:54] <YoshiG3> !beryl
[12:54] <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
[12:54] <Vommy> goodgerster where is it :(
[12:54] <Ha1> k Done
[12:54] <pbureau> lynucs,  okay... so iip:/192.168.1.2:prl ?
[12:55] <lynucs> pr1
[12:55] <lynucs> not prl
[12:55] <goodgerster> Vommy: same site as the others
[12:55] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1:  The format is: device  mount-point fs-type opton dump pass
[12:55] <pbureau> lynucs,  but that is how I enter the entry on IIP ?
[12:55] <lynucs> pbureau, i dont know how syntax is, but yours looks fine :D
[12:55] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: You are going to add a line to this file for your disk.
[12:55] <Vommy> goodgerster cant find it from the page i downloaded my current
[12:55] <bef> lol what the heck? I just opened up a terminal and the top line says "You are dishonest, but never to the point of hurting a friend." :O
[12:55] <warbisshop> what did they change in version 6.10 because i cant use a livebootcd from that version
[12:55] <warbisshop> 6.06 works
[12:55] <Ha1> Ok EnsignRedshirt
[12:55] <lynucs> sorry i really don't know how is the syntax
[12:56] <bef> lol what the heck? I just opened up a terminal and the top line says "You are dishonest, but never to the point of hurting a friend." anyone got any idea what that's about ??
[12:56] <goodgerster> warbisshop: they changed the entire boot system
[12:56] <goodgerster> bef: yes, you've told us repeatedly
[12:56] <Ha1> bef, I think you have a gypsy terminal
[12:56] <lynucs> pbureau, you're not using gnome-cups-manager?
[12:56] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: The only thing we need to figure out are the appropriate options.
[12:56] <T-ROK> hey
[12:56] <warbisshop> so they kinda screwed me :/
[12:56] <pbureau> lynucs,  what ever came with ubuntu
[12:56] <shatrat> tsoler: how is it working now?
[12:56] <T-ROK> ginaly i got this to work
[12:56] <Malachi> Is there any way I can prevent programs from saying 'Starting [program] ' in the taskbar everytime I start a program?
[12:56] <T-ROK> i need help guys
[12:56] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, how do we do that?
[12:56] <shatrat> !ask|T-ROK
[12:56] <ubotu> T-ROK: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:56] <tsoler> coulnt make it
[12:56] <soundray> pbureau: no, they are typical names for print queues
[12:56] <bef> Ha1 yarly ;) it also said "ya'll gotta not make fun of the newbie"

[12:57] <greber> greber
[12:57] <greber> greber
[12:57] <greber> greber
[12:57] <bef> yes greber, greber.
[12:57] <greber> greber
[12:57] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1:  All my disks use the 'default' options.  To use the defaults, you would add a line like this: /dev/hdc3  /home/halhorn/linstore  ext3  defaults   0  2
[12:58] <tsoler> i opened the file from xp finally
[12:58] <greber> hola
[12:58] <Ha1> Do I copypaste that in there, then?
[12:58] <gleamnite> [sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop]  gives [E: Could not find package ubuntu-desktop] 
[12:58] <Vommy> goodgerster im looking from ubuntu.com and cant find it.
[12:58] <lynucs> pbureau, what happens when you choos IPP, type the ip and click next?
[12:58] <shatrat> tsoler: using fs-driver?
[12:58] <pbureau> okay let me see if I can find gnome-cups-manager
[12:58] <tsoler> yes
[12:58] <rafase282> hello
[12:58] <soundray> pbureau: and it's pr1, not prl
[12:58] <tsoler> :)

[12:58] <greber> heip
[12:58] <tsoler> but dont know what to delete
[12:58] <goodgerster> Vommy: GIYF
[12:58] <lynucs> pbureau, just type  gnome-cups-manager in console, maybe its the same prog that you use
[12:58] <pbureau> assuming it be found under synaptic
[12:58] <greber> f
[12:58] <Vommy> oh no no no no, goodgerster Other installation options including 64 bit CD images.... ?
[12:59] <goodgerster> Vommy: well done
[12:59] <Vommy> Bah, just being blind :b
[12:59] <shatrat> tsoler: What you need to do is go down to the Screen section and look at the lines of resolutions under it and make sure they match your monitor
[12:59] <lynucs> pbureau, i assume it is already installed on your box
[12:59] <lynucs> :D
[12:59] <soundray> T-ROK: join #ubuntu-classroom
[12:59] <T-ROK> ok thanks
[12:59] <pbureau> lynucs,  well find out after this search iun synaptic
[12:59] <slyfox> Smirnov: Are you still there
[12:59] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, do I copy paste that line in there then?
[12:59] <Smirnov> slyfox, yep
[12:59] <bef> any advice on this pastebin with regards to ATI Radeon graphics card?
[01:00] <bef> http://fluxbuntu.org//view.php?id=412
[01:00] <pbureau> lynucs,  yep thatis the one I use
[01:00] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: As a start, yes.
[01:00] <Ha1> Now what?
[01:00] <lynucs> so what happens after choosing IPP and typing in the ip adress and clikcing next?
[01:00] <shatrat> tsoler: If I were you though, I would just reinstall using the ubuntu desktop iso, you can still use it as a server and its easier to learn
[01:00] <pbureau> lynucs,  trying again
[01:00] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: For Ha1's fstab entry, would setting the options to 'default,user' work?
[01:00] <pbureau> lynucs,  printer selection
[01:01] <slyfox> Smirnov: ok, what was your issue with samba? Mine is that I want to mount shared windows folders but the problem I have with samaba is that I have to manually enter a restart command for samba for it to mount the folders. It is as if autofs does not start upon boot
[01:01] <lynucs> pbureau, is yours listed there?
[01:01] <pbureau> yep
[01:01] <MMC> any here like listen metal music?
[01:01] <lynucs> what happeens if you choose it
[01:01] <tsoler> but we already made the update shatrat. isnt that right?
[01:01] <MMC> there's some room of metal music?
[01:01] <Smirnov> slyfox, my auto.smb is a bash script i am confused as to what it does
[01:01] <goodgerster> MMC: that's almost entirely off-topic
[01:01] <MMC> I'm new:P
[01:01] <NET||abuse> arrg, somethin was wong wiv me irc
[01:01] <pbureau> get  next screen name , location, description
[01:01] <goodgerster> MMC: only a blind person who doesn't have a screenreader doesn't know that
[01:02] <goodgerster> MMC: please stop telling us
[01:02] <shatrat> Even Anne Frank can see that
[01:02] <Vommy> goodgerster seems like im lucky, I managed to find an empty cd-r !
[01:02] <NET||abuse> ok,, having issue with updates,, libc and libc-i686 are coming up with 404 errors when i aptitude upgrade
[01:02] <goodgerster> Vommy: well done.
[01:02] <triplah> heyhey, whats p with eclipse running so slow on edgy?
[01:02] <slyfox> Smirnov: not sure what a bash script is, I am a noob. But you do not need it. I just wrote my own auto.myown and it mounts
[01:02] <triplah> up*
[01:02] <lynucs> pbureau, hmm what is ment with location??  just type test test test
[01:02] <lynucs> :D
[01:02] <Vommy> goodgerster are you proud of me now?
[01:02] <goodgerster> triplah: eclipse is written in java, no?
[01:02] <Smirnov> slyfox, all right
[01:02] <Smirnov> slyfox, i think i got it now
[01:02] <Smirnov> slyfox, thanks
[01:03] <triplah> goodgerster: yes, apparently its a known problem in older ubuntu's. but i've already done all the stuff to fix it
[01:03] <triplah> and its still running slow
[01:03] <tsoler> shatrat: ive deleted all "1920x1440" values . i reboot now
[01:03] <slyfox> Smirnov: do you know if autofs starts automatically for you when you boot ?
[01:03] <MMC> I'm new here and I dotn spanish i dont undestand nothing....but k.. i will try.....undestand that: P
[01:03] <lynucs> pbureau, btw can you ping your printer??
[01:03] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: I'm reading 'man fstab' and it sounds like the user option is to allow a user to mount the disk.  I don't see how allowing a user to mount the disk would matter, since it will be mounted at boot.
[01:03] <goodgerster> Vommy: not especially. I personally do not find it terribly difficult to find a disc - I simply open the cupboard above my computer and then get one off the spindle
[01:03] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: sounds okay to me
[01:03] <goodgerster> triplah: odd. google?
[01:03] <pbureau> lynucs, yep did that.. checking settings and will try print testpage and yes I can ping it
[01:03] <Vommy> goodgerster hehe, well, you should see my room. Anyway, im off to play command and conquer until that disc has been downloaded.
[01:03] <lynucs> pbureau, try :D
[01:03] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: I'm suggesting you let the user mount it instead of having it automounted, because then the permissions will automatically be correct.
[01:04] <goodgerster> Vommy: goodo
[01:04] <triplah> goodgerster: checked already :\
[01:04] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: I see.
[01:04] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, any developments? [I went away for a few moments] 
[01:04] <shwag> can I apt-get django ?
[01:04] <Vommy> o/ laters peeps
[01:04] <goodgerster> triplah: sorry, can't help much then..
[01:04] <pbureau> lynucs,  dont laugh at me, its driving me crazy I cannot print direct to an ip address.. but I can if I share the  network print on my windows box..
[01:04] <triplah> hmm
[01:04] <lynucs> pbureau, so it doesnt work?
[01:05] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Do you want the disk to be automatically mounted everytime time you boot, or would you rather mount it 'by hand' only when you need it?
[01:05] <Ha1> Every time
[01:05] <lynucs> type  http://localhost:631/ in your browser
[01:05] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: you could add a mount command to the user's login scripts
[01:05] <pbureau> lynucs, waitting to see what the printjob does...
[01:05] <Ha1> Its going to be my main storage thingy. My /home/halhorn only has 300 odd MB of space left
[01:05] <pbureau> lynucs,  nope..just sits in the print job screen
[01:05] <CanadianMan> question, when i lsusb i need to see my MCE remote but i don't is there away to see it?
[01:05] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: Sure, but there must be a way to set the correct options in fstab.
[01:06] <lynucs> pbureau, http://localhost:631/ in your browser
[01:06] <MMC> hi motorcity
[01:06] <MMC> hi bassguy
[01:07] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: uid, gid -- the manpage should tell you everything
[01:07] <lynucs> pbureau, there you click on "printers" and "print testpage" or sth
[01:07] <lynucs> pbureau, and check wether your printer is recognized properly
[01:07] <pbureau> I did the localhost:631 I got a web page
[01:07] <lynucs> pbureau, fine
[01:08] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: Which man page? mount?
[01:08] <warriorness> Hey all, how does one get root access in terminal on the LiveCD? (i.e., what's the default password to use for "su" or how to change it)
[01:08] <lynucs> pbureau, there you click on "printers" and "print testpage" or sth
[01:08] <tsoler> shatrat: its not working
[01:08] <NET||abuse> warriorness, su doesn't work like in other distros as ubuntu
[01:08] <shatrat> tsoler: Have you installed anything yet on the server? YOu just installed ubuntu right?
[01:08] <lynucs> an there you can see the status
[01:08] <pbureau> lynucs, Network host '192.168.1.2' is busy; will retry in 30 second
[01:08] <tsoler> right
[01:08] <warriorness> NET||abuse: From the LiveCD?
[01:09] <lynucs> pbureau, hmm.. is your windows box running?
[01:09] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: yes, and fstab
[01:09] <tsoler> shatrat:right
[01:09] <warriorness> NET||abuse: I know for a fact that it works from an installation. I want to know how to use it on the LiveCD.
[01:09] <NET||abuse> warriorness, i dont think so
[01:09] <tsoler> shatrat: right
[01:09] <shatrat> tsoler: I recommend you download the desktop ubuntu installer.  It still makes a perfectly good server and it isnt as steep a learning curve because it has the best GUI in the world.
[01:09] <NET||abuse> are you saying "su -" works on an install of ubuntu?
[01:09] <chris___> hello, can anyone help me with a simple issue with screen. Trying to run a screen as any other user other than root gives me the following error: Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/0' - please check.
[01:09] <lynucs> pbureau, the ip 192.168.1.2 is correct? are you sure? its not the ip of your windows box?
[01:09] <tsoler> ok :)
[01:10] <pbureau> lynucs,  yep and I can print from the winbox and through the linux->window box printer share
[01:10] <pbureau> notits a static Ip for the printer
[01:10] <warriorness> NET||abuse: Yes, I have done it before.
[01:10] <lynucs> pbureau, shut down windows :D
[01:10] <sun_> hi firefox keeps freezing up especially on youtube ?
[01:10] <soundray> warriorness: use sudo -i for a root console on the live CD
[01:10] <warbisshop> i'm using a laptop and an x700 mobility graphics card. but i cant get into my graphical shell
[01:10] <Ha1> Sorry about that
[01:10] <MMC> i can used msn on linux?
[01:10] <warriorness> soundray: What does the -i flag do?
[01:10] <lynucs> pbureau, just in case win causes the prob
[01:10] <MMC> can i used msn on linux?
[01:11] <pbureau> lynucs,  if I enter the IP in browser and I can access the printer just fine (details about the Hp2600) so the Ip is right
[01:11] <Ha1> Kind of
[01:11] <warbisshop> cna anyone direct me into a good howto orso
[01:11] <juano__> MMC: use amsn
[01:11] <Alakazamz0r> MMC msn chat or msn messenger?
[01:11] <NET||abuse> MMC, yes ,, sorta,, amsn is one package, kopete and gaim both also have support
[01:11] <Ha1> MMC: Look through repos for aMSN
[01:11] <sun_> hi firefox keeps freezing up especially on youtube any fixes?
[01:11] <MMC> msn messenger
[01:11] <Alakazamz0r> mmc yes
[01:11] <tsoler> shatrat: one thing yet, i need to reorder boot now. I must go back to win. how Do i change th boot order. i remember it is a file but where?
[01:11] <juano__> MMC: wait i got a direct link for amsn 0.96, best so far
[01:11] <Ha1> So, EnsignRedshirt, any new developments?
[01:11] <Turilas> Hi all
[01:11] <lynucs> pbureau, maybe windows causes the probs.. if you shut down win?
[01:11] <skel> MMC: amsn or gaim will work
[01:11] <CanadianMan> question, when i lsusb i need to see my MCE remote but i don't is there away to see it?
[01:11] <MMC> dont worry i will see again:|
[01:11] <bef> Hi all, I'm looking for some help using nano - please can somebody help?
[01:12] <cafuego_> warriorness: -i = 'simulate initial login' - overwrites your env vars. Kinda like 'su -'
[01:12] <juano__> MMC: http://amsn-project.net/linux-downloads.php download the package from there,
[01:12] <jkl-> i did 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot' yet i cannot find a .deb package as a result - why?
[01:12] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Still poking around in the docs.  An alternative is some trial-and-error experimenting...
[01:12] <shatrat> tsoler: Do you want to reinstall the windows boot loader?  Do you want to make Windows the Default in Grub?
[01:12] <rofl> bef: whats wrong?
[01:12] <MMC> thank juano
[01:12] <dwhsix> weird: ubuntu mounts my ipod video fine, but won't mount an ipod mini... thoughts?
[01:12] <bef> how to edit a line, how to create a new line, how to delete a line, how to exit save changes, how to exit unsave changes
[01:12] <juano__> MMC: download the generic installer
[01:12] <tsoler> shatrat: yes
[01:12] <warriorness> cafuego_: So you wouldn't have to type it before each individual command like with normal sudo usage?
[01:12] <soundray> warriorness: sets "interactive" -- check out 'man sudo' (you should anyway, rather than believing what you hear on IRC ;)
[01:12] <shatrat> tsoler: which, lol
[01:12] <juano__> MMC: youll need to install tcl8.4 from repos first
[01:12] <sun_> hi firefox keeps freezing up especially on youtube any fixes? anyone else having unstable firefox
[01:12] <rofl> bef: do you have it running from command line?
[01:12] <tsoler> grub reconfig
[01:12] <pbureau> lynucs, hang on let me try socket://192.168.1.2:63:9100
[01:12] <bef> rofl: i sudo nano filename
[01:13] <skel> sun_: what flash plugin are you using?
[01:13] <Turilas> Hi, I'm new to Ubuntu, How do I get Ubuntu to play MP3?
[01:13] <kbrosnan> sun_: sounds like you are having issues with the flash plugin, there is a beta of version 9 on labs.adobe.com
[01:13] <rofl> bef: so to change where you are in the file, use arrow keys
[01:13] <lynucs> pbureau, ok... maybe windows is accessing the printer and therefore blocking requests of linux box?
[01:13] <tsoler> shatrat: grub reconfig
[01:13] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: Once an entry is made in fstab, what is the command that will use that information to mount the disk, with rebooting?
[01:13] <dope> i'm gettin the weird RSA error when i try to network via ssh
[01:13] <MMC> thank u
[01:13] <rofl> bef: to save, press Ctrl+X and then save changes when it asks you
[01:13] <pbureau> lynucs, nah th boxes are turned off now
[01:13] <shatrat> tsoler: You need to change /boot/grub/menu.lst in linux to change boot order.  The entries for grub are at the end of that file. You can either move the windows one to the top, or change the "default = 0" to "default = 4" or whatever entry windows is
[01:13] <EnsignRedshirt> s/with rebooting/withOUT rebooting/
[01:13] <skel> Turilas: I play mp3's with beep media player
[01:14] <lynucs> pbureau, that sucks :(
[01:14] <rofl> bef: to add a new line, press enter ;)
[01:14] <eigenlambda> i'm trying to play tremulous and serve files with apache at the same time.  How can I ensure low latency for the game while providing some throughput for the webserver?
[01:14] <juano__> Turilas: you would need to install libmp3g from synaptic package manager, and then i recomend you install every xmms package, xmms is a player like winamp
[01:14] <EnsignRedshirt> soundray: Sorry, I meant withOUT rebooting...
[01:14] <tsoler> shatrat: got it
[01:14] <ardchoille42> Turilas, xmms plays mp3 files out of the box.
[01:14] <lynucs> pbureau, sorry for not beeing able to help you, i hope you will find the error
[01:14] <shatrat> tsoler: you can use nano to edit that as well "sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[01:14] <lynucs> i need to go to bed
[01:14] <juano__> Turilas: you can also use beep as skel sais, or use audacious too
[01:14] <skel> eigenlambda: you could setup QOS in  your kernel
[01:14] <eigenlambda> how?
[01:14] <lynucs> pbureau, could you drop me a mail if you solve the prob?
[01:14] <eigenlambda> any guides available?
[01:14] <chris___> Trying to run a screen as any other user other than root gives me the following error: Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/0' - please check.  Anyone help me with this??
[01:14] <bef> rofl: thanks, how edit a line?
[01:14] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: 'mount -a' or, specifically for the user entry, 'mount /dev/hda1 /mnt' as user(insert correct device name and mountpoint)
[01:14] <lynucs> pbureau, just interesting to know what the problem was
[01:15] <tsoler> shatrat: one strange thing happens i cannot not open ext for windows since my last rebbot
[01:15] <warriorness> soundray, cafuego_ : "sudo -i" will work in place of "su" on the LiveCD?
[01:15] <rofl> bef: just a sec...
[01:15] <LjL> warriorness: sure will
[01:15] <cafuego_> warriorness: Yup
[01:15] <pbureau> lynucs, sure... if I ever make it work...lol
[01:15] <shatrat> tsoler: You cant look at the ext3 drive? something wrong with fs-driver?
[01:15] <warriorness> All right, thanks
[01:15] <dar> question - what's in the "proposed updates" repository?
[01:15] <shatrat> tsoler: that is strange, I've never had a problem with it
[01:15] <tsoler> shatrat: yes
[01:15] <lynucs> pbureau, true-black@web.de
[01:15] <Turilas> Juano and Skel: Thanks for the advice, I'll look into that
[01:15] <cafuego_> warriorness: Note that if you run 'sudo -i', X applications won't run. If you need gui stuff as root, use 'sudo -s'.
[01:15] <lynucs> pbureau,  even if you won't solve it, just write, maybe i'll check sth out
[01:16] <lynucs> pbureau, good luck and cya
[01:16] <skel> eigenlambda: it would be a rather complicated process if you're not real familiar with iptables and qos
[01:16] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Sorry, the correct options are not jumping out at me, so I'm just going to shout out again...
[01:16] <tsoler> shatrat: i use ext2ifs software
[01:16] <rofl> bef: you can just move around with arrow keys and then press up or down to move to a different line
[01:16] <warriorness> cafuego_: I don't care about gui stuff really... I'm helping a friend install Gentoo, and having him use the terminal in the LiveCD because Ubuntu's LiveCD autoconfigures his wireless network.
[01:16] <skel> eigenlambda: do you have any application layer qos capabilities on your router?
[01:16] <dar> question - what's in the "proposed updates" repository?
[01:16] <soundray> cafuego_: is that just on the live CD? Because it works fine on my installed system.
[01:17] <Nocturne> Howdy.
[01:17] <EnsignRedshirt> Does anyone know what options to put in fstab so that a mount point appears to by just a subdirectory of a user's home directory, and the user automatically has r/w access to the disk?
[01:17] <cafuego_> soundray: sudo -i overwrites $HOME and $DISPLAY, so it ought not work.
[01:17] <skel> eigenlambda: or, you can add a virtual interface with a different ip and have apache listen on that and use QOS to limit the bandwidth that way
[01:17] <EnsignRedshirt> s/by just/be just/
[01:17] <Nocturne> How do I update to the lastest java? (1.5.x)
[01:17] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: man fstab
[01:17] <dar> anyone? what are the "proposed updates"? are they safe? beta? what?
[01:17] <lynucs> pbureau, try to autodetect the printer
 use hal and dbus
[01:18] <dar> Nocturne, install sunjava-*
[01:18] <dar> !java
[01:18] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[01:18] <shatrat> EnsignRedshirt
[01:18] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: Yes, yes, I know.  Can you point to the specific section that answers the question? This is not #debian :)
[01:18] <Smirnov> arghhh, my autofs isnt mounting things
[01:18] <tsoler> shatrat: thanks for suppot
[01:18] <shatrat> EnsignRedshirt: try changing the mount point to /home/username/storagedisk?
[01:18] <soundray> cafuego_: it does overwrite $HOME, but $DISPLAY remains at :0.0 here.
[01:18] <wasabi__> how do i install xfce on ubuntu?
 use hal and dbus
[01:18] <LjL> Ubotu, tell wasabi__ about xfce | wasabi__, see the private message from Ubotu
[01:18] <dar> wasabi_, sudo apt-get install xubuntu or sudo apt-get install xfce
[01:18] <LjL> Ubotu, tell datachild\away about away | datachild\away, see the private message from Ubotu
[01:18] <shatrat> tsoler:  Good luck. Dont give up, the desktop version is much easier to learn.
[01:18] <EnsignRedshirt> StJimmy2k_pablo: Please elaborate.
[01:18] <rofl> cya all
[01:18] <StJimmy2k_pablo> wasabi: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[01:18] <tsoler> shatrat: its already very late here
[01:19] <wasabi__> thanks LjL
[01:19] <cafuego_> soundray: Hmm..  even then, it shouldn't be able to find $HOME/.xauth
[01:19] <rafase282> hello
[01:19] <tsoler> shatrat: good night
[01:19] <kapi> hi.
[01:19] <shatrat> tsoler: well, you can give up for tonight.  YOu have my permission
[01:19] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: just read the man page, and the actualy fstab and you will understand what to do
[01:19] <tsoler> god night to all
[01:19] <MrElendig> it's realy easy
[01:19] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: In the mean time, put in the line in fstab that I gave you before.
[01:19] <rafase282> what is the chanel for ubuntu in spanish?
[01:19] <kapi> do i need jabber account for psi to use msn and icq in it ?
[01:19] <wasabi__> thanks StJimmy2k_pablo
[01:19] <tsoler> :)
 you install hal and dbus and your media is mounted automatically
[01:19] <dar> *sigh* same old, always getting ignored here
[01:19] <rafase282> LjL, can u help me?
[01:19] <Ha1> Ensign, I did it already
[01:20] <tom47> rafase282: #ubuntu-es
[01:20] <StJimmy2k_pablo> wasabi__ - u're welcome
[01:20] <LjL> Ubotu, tell rafase282 about es | rafase282, see the private message from Ubotu
[01:20] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: Yes, but it might be more efficient if someone already knows the correct options. If you don't, or you don't want to say, well, that's fine.
[01:20] <dar> !repos
[01:20] <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
[01:20] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: /dev/something /somewhere filesystem mountoption
[01:20] <kapi> do i need jabber account for psi to use msn and icq in it ?
[01:20] <MrElendig> there you go
[01:20] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt!!!
[01:20] <Ha1> I did it!
[01:21] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: What happened?
[01:21] <stormchas3r> anything I try to install in terminal says, everything has unmet dependencies, I mean everything
[01:21] <soundray> cafuego_: hmm, do you mean $HOME/.Xauthority ?
[01:21] <StJimmy2k_pablo> EnsignRedshirt, I guess, /dev/you /media/you rw,users,auto 0 0
[01:21] <cafuego_> soundray: Hmmmyes
[01:21] <StJimmy2k_pablo> EnsignRedshirt: try it
[01:21] <TTT_Travis> hey, I have an Ubuntu box connected to my LCD tv for mythtv, but it doesn't look good the resolution is 1920x540 even though I didn't set that anywhere in Xorg.conf, this is on a radeon card
[01:21] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, I used sudo chmod ug=rwx /home/halhorn/linstore
[01:21] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, I can now read but cannot write to it
[01:21] <pbureau> lynucs, how do I do a search for the printer ?
[01:21] <tom47> stormchas3r maybe you are using wrong version of repositories?
[01:22] <MrElendig> if it's a fat(32) or ntfs partion, you need to use uid and gid to set the owner, and umask to set the permission
[01:22] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, no wait
[01:22] <dar> is anyone gonna answer my question? what are the "proposed updates" section in software sources?
[01:22] <stormchas3r> tom47, i just installed edgy
[01:22] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, damnit, its not working.
[01:22] <Ha1> False hope
[01:22] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: It is ext3
[01:22] <arsentop> any idea how i can go about formatting my microsd in a sd adaptor in an internal card reader on my vaio lappy (edgy 6.10) ?
[01:22] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: You added the line to fstab, right?
[01:22] <dar> please please please someone answer my question?
[01:22] <ardchoille42> arsentop, gparted ?
[01:22] <tom47> stormchas3r: does synaptic work?
[01:22] <soundray> dar: give me two min
[01:22] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, yes
[01:23] <arsentop> good plan, ill try, ardchoille42 :) ty
[01:23] <stormchas3r> tom47, lemme check
[01:23] <ardchoille42> arsentop, :)
[01:23] <Ha1> Wait, EnsignRedshirt, what was the exact line?
[01:23] <Oly> the idea 2 a video card is to take away unessary pressure on the processor l ike older comps right? *related instaling ubunta and alot faster?*
[01:23] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: then use user as option
[01:23] <MrElendig> and 0 0  for the last two
[01:23] <wasabi__> does beryl run on xfce?
[01:23] <dar> Oly, they're useful on new comps too
[01:23] <bethie> is anybody around?
[01:24] <stormchas3r> tom47, same thing, nothing installs
[01:24] <shatrat> Oly: thats part of it, but videocards can do things even the fastest general purpose CPU can't do
[01:24] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: /dev/hdc3  /home/halhorn/linstore ext3 defaults 0 2
[01:24] <dar> actually, you need a video card for video as it provides the output to the monitor
[01:24] <ardchoille42> Oly, To take "software" processing pressure off the CPU and put it on the "hardware" of the vid card, yes
[01:24] <tom47> ok i would check that the repos are right as first step
[01:24] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: But it's the 'defaults' part that I think might need to be changed.
[01:24] <Oly> ya thats what i thought. and also physics cards but those are a waste of money
[01:24] <Oly> =)
[01:24] <soundray> dar: ubuntu maintainers are very reluctant to change the released version of the distribution. When a change is important, but not necessarily a security fix, it goes into the proposed section for testing.
[01:24] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, that line is in there
[01:24] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: change defaults to user if you want the user to be allowed to mount/umount
[01:25] <dar> soundray, so, is it like beta software?
[01:25] <MrElendig> else leave it as it is
[01:25] <tom47> stormchas3r: ok i would check that the repos are right as first step
[01:25] <stormchas3r> kk
[01:25] <shatrat> dar: the software may not be beta, but the changes to the distro are
[01:25] <bethie> i'm having trouble with my ftp
[01:25] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: and sue chown to give the use ownership of the data
[01:25] <MrElendig> /s/sue/use
[01:25] <dar> shatrat, ok, good enough for me - I like livin on the edge (anything to extend my backports :-P)
[01:25] <soundray> dar: no, it is usually stable before the package is considered for the released version.
[01:25] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: What we want is for the disk to be mounted at boot, and to be owned by the user, as if it were a regular subdirectory of his home directory.
[01:25] <hairulfr> Yeah, tell me about it. I got min change
[01:26] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: I know
[01:26] <dar> soundray, so, it's unlikely to seriously b0rk my machine, right?
[01:26] <Oly> Alright ANother issue:   I just insatlled ubunta and it froze on 40% ...  any idea what 2 do to preven this?
[01:26] <dar> it's just not important enough to go to main/security updates?
[01:26] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: So, when you say use chown, would that be on the mount point?
[01:26] <MrElendig> EnsignRedshirt: /dev/something /home/someuser/somefolder ext3 defaults 0 0
[01:26] <MrElendig> and after it is mounted, chown it to the user
[01:26] <tom47> Oly did you check that the install cd was properly burnt by using the appropriate menu entry on boot?
[01:26] <Atomiku> Hey, I got ubuntu IP masquerading and I was just wondering if I can see/limit how much bandwidth the computers it's sharing the internet to are taking?
[01:27] <bethie> if i tell u a page i found that helped me with the mount problem can some1 help me?
[01:27] <dope> is ssh secure?
[01:27] <soundray> dar: they are important (otherwise they wouldn't be proposed), but not urgent, like a security hole.
[01:27] <Oly> Rawr. ,maybe*
[01:27] <_`XeOn_> !automatix
[01:27] <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
[01:27] <dar> soundray, alright, good enough fer me
[01:27] <TTT_Travis> hey, I have an Ubuntu box connected to my LCD tv for mythtv, but it doesn't look good the resolution is 1920x540 even though I didn't set that anywhere in Xorg.conf, this is on a radeon card
[01:27] <MrElendig> dope: depends on the methode of authentication
[01:27] <dar> soundray, although, they *are* tested to some degree aren't they?
[01:27] <dope> i just type ssh user@host
[01:28] <_`XeOn_> !worksforme
[01:28] <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.
[01:28] <soundray> dar: I always install them, too, never had a problem.
[01:28] <MrElendig> dope: if you use a srongly encrypted key, with a stong password, it's almost imposible to attack
[01:28] <Atomiku> And another thing while im here: How can I get a certain shell script to start on startup?
[01:28] <DARKGuy> Anybody here uses Audacious? I want to know how to play MIDI files :(
[01:28] <soundray> dar: although I know this kind of guidance is discouraged here. Sorry guys.
[01:28] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: Do you have MIDI working yet?
[01:28] <dar> soundray, yay - leavin now - I'm gonna restart my session (emerald is acting up)
[01:28] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: How would I know that? I've got timidity, but that's all
[01:28] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, try this now (it probably won't work--just making sure): mount /dev/hdc3
[01:29] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: Can you play a midi file under timidity?'
[01:29] <bethie> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux
[01:29] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Yes, it kinda lags though (which is werid, like, wtf)
[01:29] <bethie> worked perfectly
[01:29] <DARKGuy> *weird
[01:29] <Oly> How do i check the cd without rebooting?
[01:29] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, negative, not working
[01:29] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: Okay, then you've already passed my knowledge level.  :)
[01:30] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, now do it with sudo.
[01:30] <Oly> the intergrety of the cd* without rebooting?
[01:30] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Lol, that's okay, but having timidity already installed, Audacious should play the midi files right?
[01:30] <tom47> Oly there is a file on te cd with a list of md5 sums on it
[01:30] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: If you've got it set up as a MIDI device, yes.
[01:30] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt
[01:30] <tom47> use that and the md5sum command to check it
[01:30] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Ah, I guess I haven't - you know how?
[01:31] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Yes?
[01:31] <bethie> i installed gproftp did everything correctly but when you try to connect using a ftp client it won't connect
[01:31] <bethie> the ip dns
[01:31] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, same with sudo
[01:31] <bethie> so i installed apache2
[01:31] <bethie> and now gproftp crashes
[01:31] <bethie> it worked on 6.06
[01:31] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, no permissions
[01:31] <dope> can i connect to another machine via ssl?
[01:31] <bethie> i did the same thing in 6.10 that i did in 6.06
[01:32] <MrElendig> dope: depends on what you are trying to do
[01:32] <dope> like connect into a server
[01:32] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: Check /etc/rc2.d/ for a file called S99timidity
[01:32] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: This didn't work? : sudo mount /dev/hdc3
[01:32] <Oly> Do i have to check the md5 sums manuly...
[01:32] <Oly> wth
[01:32] <dfgr> yay, proposed updates didn't kill nothin
[01:32] <bethie> EnsignRedshirt: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux
[01:32] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: If you have it, you've probably set up the server already.
[01:32] <dfgr> Oly, as opposed to automagically??
[01:32] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, I do not have read/write permission, no
[01:32] <bethie> i had the same problem
[01:33] <bethie> because when u installed
[01:33] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Yes, I have it :P
[01:33] <elpargo> anyone knows of a simple app to encrypt a text file? I remember using locknote which is great but runs on windows only
[01:33] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, nor view permissions, as usual
[01:33] <bethie> u probably didn't allocate the space
[01:33] <Oly> as opposed to checking off this milllion file list
[01:33] <Oly> rawrr
[01:33] <bethie> so it won't be reconized
[01:33] <warbisshop> x
[01:33] <warbisshop> desktop-ubuntu
[01:33] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: But did the mount command succeed?
[01:33] <warbisshop> crap
[01:33] <arsentop> thanks adamonline45, seems to have worked :)
[01:33] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: Then you should be able to use MIDI from other programs, yes.
[01:33] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Do this: mount
[01:33] <tom47> Oly us the -w option in the md5sum command
[01:33] <Poip> Hi, how can I disable 'eggcups' at gnome startup?
[01:33] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Yes, but Audacious doesn't want to. Does Alsa need a midi driver thing too?
[01:34] <bethie> EnsignRedshirt: sudo aptitude update
[01:34] <bethie> sudo aptitude install gparted gksu
[01:34] <bethie> gksudo gparted
[01:34] <packagedeliverer> hey what's the postmaster for as a mailaccount? what's its purpose?
[01:34] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: When you used sudo, did the mount command succeed?  I know you won't have permission to actually access the disk, but it should still be mounted.
[01:35] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: You might check the settings it's using to play MIDI files, I know on one of the MIDI editing programs I use, it doesn't select the right one by default.
[01:35] <Ha1> It succeeded, yes
[01:35] <Ha1> It is mounted
[01:35] <zoexii> hello, how does one kill the gdm login screen?  It is using an obscene amount of my very limited ram... I kill it using killall gdmgreeter and it simply reappears...
[01:35] <arsentop> can anyone tell me why my shutdown option has dissapeared from my quit menu, all i can do is hibernate and suspend?:|
[01:35] <heikili> someone german here who can help me?
[01:35] <dfgr> oh yea, how do I get midi to work? it's not a big deal, but it is nice
[01:35] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, now go to your home directory, and do: ls -l linstore

[01:35] <dfgr> zoexii, if you kill the login screen, how're you gonna login?
[01:35] <MMC> why some file no work in linux? i cant see some image file:|
[01:35] <zoexii> dfgr from the command line
[01:35] <warbisshop> Does anyone have a good howto to let Xserver work when using an Ati mobility x700 card :(
[01:35] <heikili> thx
[01:35] <soundray> packagedeliverer: often, locally undeliverable mail is forwarded to the postmaster.
[01:36] <packagedeliverer> ok thanks soundray :)
[01:36] <dfgr> zoexii, oh, you wanna disable X?
[01:36] <dfgr> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[01:36] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: 'ls -l linstore' should show just one line, so I don't think anyone will complain if you copy it here.
[01:36] <Atomiku> I have a startup shell script here that needs to run as root... how can I make it be run as root?
[01:36] <tom47> arsentop ctl alt F10 then depending on result ... if that gives you the logon screen use the options in lower left hand corner ... if not, sign in and then sudo reboot
[01:36] <zoexii> dfgr, yes, it is taking up thirty percent of my ram.
[01:36] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Well, in audacious there are no settings for alsa :/
[01:36] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, ls: linstore: Permission denied
[01:36] <dfgr> Atomiku, add it to one of them startup places
[01:36] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: brb, gimme a sec
[01:37] <Atomiku> I already have
[01:37] <bethie> am i invisible?
[01:37] <dfgr> zoexii, use "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" - that'll kill it till you reboot
[01:37] <tom47> bethie yes
[01:37] <Atomiku> and ive update-rc.d'd it as well
[01:37] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, how about: sudo ls -l linstore
[01:37] <FunnyMan3595> Is there a way to open a file with the default program from the command line?  e.g. <blah> somefile.pdf -> evince somefile.pdf
[01:37] <MMC> why cant see some imagen file in linux?
[01:37] <zoexii> dfgr, right on...
[01:37] <iamaman> am i now?
[01:37] <soundray> packagedeliverer: the purpose may be defined more precisely in an RFC, but I'm not sure.
[01:37] <dfgr> zoexii, maybe you'd be interested in a server install if you can't run X?
[01:37] <Ha1> Sudo ls -l linstore returns:
[01:37] <Ha1> total 16
[01:37] <Ha1> drwx------ 2 root root 16384 2007-01-22 19:46 lost+found
[01:37] <tom47> yes
[01:37] <iamaman> :P
[01:37] <tom47> lol
[01:37] <packagedeliverer> yeah soundray, just found some rfc stuff on wikipedia, looking into it
[01:37] <soundray> FunnyMan3595: gnome-open
[01:37] <arsentop> tom47 i know howto do that, i just dont understand where my "reboot" and "shutdown" options went from the "quit" menu within gnome
[01:37] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: OK, this is where we take MrElendig's advice
[01:38] <zoexii> dfgr, I am ordering more ram, so I have plans to use X in the future,
[01:38] <packagedeliverer> belongs to the smtp protocol
[01:38] <tom47> arsentop sometimes happens to me
[01:38] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, and do what exactly?
[01:38] <CanadianMan> !lirc
[01:38] <zoexii> dfgr, for the moment however, it is painfully slow.
[01:38] <ubotu> lirc: Linux Infra-red Remote Control support. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.8.0-5ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 308 kB, installed size 1544 kB
[01:38] <FunnyMan3595> soundray: Excellent.  Got a KDE equivalent as well?
[01:38] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Change the owner of the disk from root to you (halhorn).
[01:38] <Ha1> How?
[01:38] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: That
[01:38] <soundray> FunnyMan3595: I'm sure there is one, but sorry, I don't know it.
[01:38] <EnsignRedshirt> oops
[01:38] <dope> ok i put ssh user@hot in a bash script file.  how do i get it to automatically type the password as well?
[01:38] <Ha1> According to RCLICK, Properties, I already AM the owner
[01:39] <dfgr> zoexii, you can modify that /etc/init.d file I pointed out and add an "exit" somewhere - that should act as a crude way of preventing gdm from starting
[01:39] <soundray> dope: you don't. In a situation like that, you use keys.
[01:39] <FunnyMan3595> soundray: No worries, I just wanted it for completeness.
[01:39] <dope> NOOOO
[01:39] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: sudo chown halhorn:halhorn linstore
[01:39] <CanadianMan> i need some dire help with LIRC tutorials are not cutting it for me? can i talk to someone?
[01:39] <zoexii> dfgr, cool, worked just fine.
[01:39] <zoexii> thanks,

[01:40] <dfgr> iamaman, wait, why would you want root to log in graphically?
[01:40] <iamaman> then log in as root
[01:40] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt -- SUPER NINJA MAGIC! it works
[01:40] <iamaman> and ur pw
[01:40] <MrElendig> root login in X is stupid
[01:41] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Can you create files, etc?
[01:41] <Ha1> I can indeedy
[01:41] <dfgr> can someone recommend a cd ripping app? I don't like gstreamer or sound-juicer
[01:41] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Cool.
[01:41] <soundray> dfgr: abcde
[01:41] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: Thank you.

[01:41] <dfgr> soundray, is it graphical? I don't like using X to run terminals
[01:42] <Ha1> EnsignRedshirt, MyElendig, thanks a ton guys.
[01:42] <Ha1> I am very grateful
[01:42] <soundray> dfgr: no
[01:42] <dfgr> *sigh*
[01:42] <soundray> dope: look at the page I pointed you to. It says it all.
[01:42] <iamaman> is there anyone here that can answer my ftp question yet?
[01:42] <dfgr> soundray, can you recommend a gui one?
[01:42] <dope> it'll do that
[01:42] <dope> ?
[01:42] <bfdhud> iamaman: what is it?
[01:42] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: The options for Ha1's disk in fstab is still 'defaults', and the owner of the mount point was changed from root to the user (halhorn).  Will he still have the correct permissions when he reboots?
[01:42] <jorgp> I am trying to get a linksys wrt54gs wireless with 6.10 live cd and can not get it working, can someone help
[01:43] <iamaman> i can't connect to my site
[01:43] <iamaman> using a client
[01:43] <MrElendig> yes
[01:43] <iamaman> after i set it up
[01:43] <iamaman> which i did correctly
[01:43] <iamaman> so then i installed apache2
[01:43] <iamaman> and now it crahses
[01:43] <EnsignRedshirt> MrElendig: Groovy, thanks again.
[01:43] <iamaman> gpro that is
[01:43] <dfgr> jorgp, is that a wireless card? have you tried !ndiswrapper ?
[01:43] <slyfox> #autofs
[01:43] <soundray> dfgr: grip
[01:43] <jorgp> dfgr, no
[01:43] <iamaman> my dns is fine
[01:43] <bfdhud> your site hosted remotely by someone else?
[01:43] <iamaman> my users are setup
[01:43] <jorgp> dfgr, yes, wireless card
[01:43] <iamaman> but it just times out when some1 tries
[01:43] <slyfox> Anyone here familiar with autofs ?
[01:43] <iamaman> nope
[01:43] <iamaman> my pc
[01:43] <iamaman> i did it with 6.06
[01:44] <iamaman> no probs
[01:44] <iamaman> then i installed 6.10
[01:44] <iamaman> and it doesn't work
[01:44] <MrElendig> slyfox: use hal/dbus instead if you can
[01:44] <EnsignRedshirt> Ha1: Sorry that took so long.  If I were more clueful, we would have been done in two minutes :)
[01:44] <iamaman> did the same things
[01:44] <dfgr> soundray, grip? ubotu says it has a minor bug involving /dev/hda - you know anything about it?
[01:44] <slyfox> MrElendig: please tell me a bit more what this is, I am jsut a noob from Windows world.
[01:44] <jorgp> dfgr, now do I get ndiswrapper working?
[01:44] <MrElendig> iamaman: try connecting from localhost
[01:44] <dfgr> jorgp, read the tutorials, it varies
[01:45] <oFF-beAt> "The first training courses will be available from Q1 2007. " ubuntu training courses... from Q1 ? what kind of a date is that?? pls some one explain
[01:45] <soundray> dfgr: no. I used it ages ago, and found it rough around the edges. Been happy with abcde ever since.
[01:45] <MrElendig> iptable and host.allow/deny might be blocking the ftp
[01:45] <dfgr> soundray, hmm..... yea, I just want something that doesn't use gstreamer, which is a pile of crap
[01:45] <xtknight> what's a good cd/dvd burner for linux?
[01:45] <MrElendig> oFF-beAt: Q1 = fist quater of 2007
[01:45] <dfgr> xtknight, k3b and nothing else

[01:46] <frogzoo> xtknight: k3b has no equal
[01:46] <xtknight> ill give it a shot
[01:46] <dfgr> xtknight, kdelibs is worth installing just for k3b
[01:46] <xtknight> can i make Qt look like gtk
[01:46] <EnsignRedshirt> frogzoo: No equal, but is there something greater?
[01:46] <iamaman> the funnies story i tried burning ubuntu with k3b in ubuntu
[01:46] <iamaman> and it burned incorrectly
[01:46] <iamaman> i had to do it in linux xp
[01:47] <frogzoo> EnsignRedshirt: nopers, k3b is the greatest
[01:47] <iamaman> then it worked
[01:47] <iamaman> but it was still k3b
[01:47] <EnsignRedshirt> frogzoo: :)
[01:47] <dfgr> iamaman, linux xp?
[01:47] <iamaman> and i tried every burn method
[01:47] <frogzoo> iamaman: reduce your burn speed
[01:47] <iamaman> ya some bs
[01:47] <jpolanco> i just compiled the new kernel...but my broadcom wireless card is not working there :(
[01:47] <dfgr> well, k3b is just a frontend to cdrecord, if cdrecord doesn't work, k3b won't
[01:47] <iamaman> u have to buy it after 99 reboots
[01:47] <xtknight> gnomebaker cant even copy on-the-fly it seems

[01:52] <chad> disabling flash is not an option for me.
[01:52] <krank> Anyone know any resources to diagnose and fix audio problems? ubuntu 6.10, audigy1 sound card?
[01:52] <xtknight> soundray: dma enabled on both drives, /dev/hdf (second drive) is not in use for the first part of the process.
[01:52] <frogzoo> sun_: install flash9 on edgy
[01:52] <MrElendig> sun_: go complain to the ones that makes flash for linux
[01:52] <xtknight> soundray: its not that big of a problem, ill probably just use another program.  maybe it can't do audio no the fly
[01:53] <chad> MrElendig:  I am not a developer.  I am refering to fixing the issue so that I can properly view websites.
[01:53] <bcstv> Nautilus started requesting a password to view mshome network. What could cause the request for password?
[01:53] <soundray> xtknight: most audio reading libraries implement sophisticated error correction - maybe that's why it fills a large buffer before it starts to write.
[01:53] <chad> cafuego_: disabling flash is just not an option for me.
[01:53] <xtknight> soundray: does nero do the same?  (maybe im just crazy but i really thought nero copied on the fly with audio)
[01:54] <soundray> zoexii: there is zgv. You need SVGAlib for it
[01:54] <tim167> xtknight ok thanks I'll try that
[01:54] <MrElendig> chad: the issue is that those that made the site, write bad code
[01:54] <shwag> why was webzlizer removed in favor of awstats ?
[01:54] <xtknight> ERROR: KUniqueApplication: Can't setup DCOP communication.
[01:54] <MrElendig> s/write/wrote
[01:54] <xtknight> just installed k3b, any ideas?
[01:54] <soundray> xtknight: sorry, I don't use proprietary software ;)
[01:54] <zoexii> soundray, thanks
[01:54] <xtknight> do i need to do something to initialize kde
[01:55] <xtknight> (  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2819/  )
[01:55] <chad> how can I temporarily disable flash in firefox?
[01:56] <twisties> Is it possible to switch from my current kernel to a 64bit kernel without reinstalling ubuntu?
[01:56] <xtknight> chad: move the .so file in question out of ~/.mozilla/plugins or /usr/share/mozilla/plugins (i believe that is the dir)
[01:56] <kbrosnan> chad: flashblock extenion
[01:56] <xtknight> twisties: no, all libraries must be 64 bit as well
[01:56] <jpolanco> can i get some help on the new kernel, or it's not supported here?
[01:57] <xtknight> jpolanco: sure, what problems you having?
[01:57] <twisties> <_< Can these be changed aswell? Or do I need to reinstall?
[01:57] <twisties> I really DONT want to
[01:57] <jpolanco> my wireless card is not working
[01:57] <jpolanco> in the new kernel
[01:57] <soundray> xtknight: check permissions with ls -ld /home/andy/.kde -- it doesn't seem to be writable
[01:57] <jpolanco> with ndiswrapper
[01:57] <zoexii> soundray, is video possible without X as well?  I have seen ascii art output for mplayer, but normal video playback?
[01:57] <xtknight> twisties: probably possible.  im not sure how exactly.  maybe change i386->amd64 in sources.list and go rambo?  :)
[01:57] <jpolanco> a broadcom 4318
[01:57] <timo> guys how can i ssh into some ones pc
[01:58] <jrib> timo: sure
[01:58] <xtknight> soundray: drwx------ 3 root root 4096 2006-12-30 20:43 /home/andy/.kde
[01:58] <xtknight> should be writeable by user right?  chmod u+w?
[01:58] <MrElendig> timo: they need to give you access
[01:58] <archangelpetro> timo, ssh username@host
[01:58] <jorgp> dfgr, nm, the linksys is linux garbage... I switched to a standard netgear
[01:58] <twisties> lol. might have to give it a try. getting my nVidia driver, beryl and multimedia working was bad enough once. Don't want to do it again for w ehile
[01:58] <MrElendig> and have sshd running
[01:58] <soundray> zoexii: yes, mplayer can output via svgalib as well, I think. Then there are the framebuffer and sdl options. Try mplayer -vo help
[01:58] <MrElendig> and not have any fw/nat/other blocking it
[01:58] <archangelpetro> timo, they need to be running sshd or something similar in order for you to successfully ssh in there
[01:59] <soundray> xtknight: no, first of all it should be owned by the user. 'sudo chown andy.andy $HOME/.kde'
[01:59] <soundray> xtknight: sorry
[01:59] <soundray> xtknight: no, first of all it should be owned by the user. 'sudo chown andy.andy /home/andy/.kde'
[01:59] <xtknight> soundray: andy:andy right?
[01:59] <soundray> xtknight: yes, if you prefer
[01:59] <timo> archangelpetro: can you tell me the command to get that shhd
[01:59] <xtknight> soundray: any difference from andy.andy?
[01:59] <soundray> xtknight: the period works fine though
[01:59] <zoexii> soundray, cool thanks... btw, zgv doesn't seem to be in universe or multiverse, do you know where I can find it?
[01:59] <soundray> no
[01:59] <chopchop_> how can i check if the internet connection was lost in command line?
[02:00] <soundray> !zgv | zoexii
[02:00] <ubotu> zgv: SVGAlib graphics viewer. In component universe, is optional. Version 5.9-2 (edgy), package size 227 kB, installed size 504 kB (Only available for i386 amd64)
[02:00] <soundray> zoexii: universe...
[02:00] <DarthShrine> I installed Xubuntu earlier, and my D-Link G630 wireless card worked fine during the install. Now that I'm actually in Ubuntu, it's not detected.
[02:00] <archangelpetro> timo, 'start /etc/init.d/sshd'
[02:00] <archangelpetro> assuming you have it
[02:01] <xtknight> soundray: ok  .kde is now owned by andy ,  running k3b still yields an error (tried it twice since chown) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2820/
[02:01] <xtknight> soundray: ahh chown -R?
[02:01] <soundray> xtknight: yes
[02:01] <soundray> xtknight: although I think the sane thing would be to remove .kde altogether
[02:02] <xtknight> soundray: probably, im getting tons of errors
[02:02] <soundray> xtknight: what's it doing in your home dir anyway, being owned by root?
[02:02] <timo> archangelpetro:whats his host , the ip
[02:02] <xtknight> soundray: no idea
[02:02] <xtknight> soundray: rm -rf .kde,  k3b   now works fine though, thanks
[02:02] <archangelpetro> timo, ? rephrase the question, i cant just 'tell' you his IP address
[02:02] <soundray> xtknight: yw
[02:02] <frootstripe> anybody kno if there is a way to restart a torrent 1/2 thru - i'm getting "tracker error 3" with Ktorrent - accidently stopped the torrent of Edgy, and thats the msg i get
[02:03] <timo> archangelpetro:is host the ip adress
[02:03] <timo> whats host ?
[02:03] <Oly> what does cntrl alt f7 do ?
[02:03] <zoexii> soundray, hmm, so zgv isn't available for ppc?  can I still download source and compile perhaps?
[02:03] <Oly> or cntrl-alt-f9 do?
[02:03] <archangelpetro> timo, host == ip
[02:03] <beoba> hi, how do i go about getting dhcp to run on startup automatically? at the moment, it doesnt run automatically, and requires that i manually run 'dhclient' before network works
[02:03] <xtknight> Oly: ctrl alt f7 goes into first started X server, f8 is second X server, f9 is third (i think), etc
[02:04] <soundray> zoexii: oh -- svgalib isn't available for PPC afaik. You need an fb image viewer
[02:04] <xtknight> Oly: usually there's only one x server.  it's on F7
[02:04] <timo> archangelpetro: so im trying to shh into some onse pc how do they find out there ip
[02:04] <xtknight> timo: have them goto www.ipchicken.com
[02:04] <Oly> xtknight :  I did that and my entire montior just went crazzyYy
[02:04] <StJimmy2k_pablo> xtknight: don't you now of xnest?
[02:04] <Oly> like static crap
[02:04] <xtknight> StJimmy2k_pablo: hm, nope?
[02:04] <archangelpetro> timo, ask them?
[02:04] <Oly> and i'm doing this on install...
[02:04] <xtknight> Oly: maybe your refresh rate is not configured properly.  CRT?
 with xnest you can open 1 X server inside another one
[02:05] <zoexii> soundray what is afaik?
[02:05] <Oly> Bah> Okay this is my situation . I had to take out my vid card to get ubuntu to even load. then i tried installing it and it freezed on 40%
[02:05] <soundray> zoexii: as far as I know, sorry
[02:05] <xtknight> StJimmy2k_pablo: oh, cool.  never knew that.  i always wondered what the standard X replacement for Xgl -window was
[02:05] <timo> mabe i can do a who is on the chat channel ?
[02:05] <Oly> So i did cntrl alt f9 and everything went insanee
[02:05] <StJimmy2k_pablo> xtknight: it's like VMWare, or a graphic chroot
[02:05] <xtknight> timo: /whois <nickname>   then just nslookup their hostname, i guess.  just have them goto ipchicken is the best way
[02:05] <soundray> zoexii: why do you want a console app rather than X?
[02:06] <StJimmy2k_pablo> xtknight: it's preety cool =D
[02:06] <xtknight> timo: whois wont always give u their ip, it might be behind a bnc or vanity host, etc
[02:06] <Oly> What a pain it is to install this . Goddd
[02:06] <archangelpetro> timo,  there are a lot of ways to find out an IP address, whois is one of them
[02:06] <xtknight> Oly: why are you pressing ctrl alt f.... etc during install?
[02:06] <Oly> B/c everything frozeee
[02:06] <xtknight> oh
[02:06] <zoexii> soundray, I have very limited ram.
[02:07] <Oly> it was on copying.. * and wouldnl't do anything
[02:07] <xtknight> Oly: any debug output?
[02:07] <Oly> no idea what that is
[02:07] <zoexii> soundray, only 64mb, X makes everything so slow that it is almost unuseable.
[02:07] <Oly> total newbie to linux
[02:08] <xtknight> blah
[02:08] <xtknight> :(
[02:08] <soundray> zoexii: have you tried raw X? As in 'export DISPLAY=:0 ; X & xterm'
[02:08] <mwalsh> hey guys.
[02:08] <mwalsh> anyone want to help a brotha out
[02:08] <xtknight> gnomebaker prolly destroyed this cd (or i did by trying to start k3b in the middle of the process)...this isnt my day
[02:08] <MrElendig> zoexii: try something not bloated, like ob or wii
[02:08] <riotkittie> orr fluxbox :D
[02:08] <tom47> !ak | mwalsh
[02:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ak - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:09] <MrElendig> yuck, flux
[02:09] <tom47> !ask | mwalsh
[02:09] <ubotu> mwalsh: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:09] <riotkittie> :O
 fluxbox RULES
[02:09] <timo> could this be the ip ?e: n=chatzill@68.53.216.xx
[02:09] <mwalsh> ok
[02:09] <soundray> zoexii: ratpoison is another good one
[02:09] <xtknight> timo: probably is
[02:09] <mwalsh> my videos arent playing in mplayer. help?
[02:09] <MrElendig> ob > * > flux
[02:09] <xtknight> timo: just the 68... part
[02:09] <timo> ah ok
[02:09] <MrElendig> :P
[02:09] <Oly> Alright i really dont have anyy idea what to do
[02:09] <timo> xtknight: ?
[02:10] <xtknight> timo: the ip is just the octets.... xx.xx.xx.xx  not anything before the @
[02:10] <timo> xtknight: ohh yeh i know thanks
[02:10] <xtknight> [ 1753.945404]    Illegal mode for this track or incompatible medium -- (asc=0x64, ascq=0x00)
[02:10] <MrElendig> Oly: my tip: use the alternate install cd
[02:10] <timo> xtknight: do i now tell him to creat an acount for me ?
[02:10] <xtknight> any idea what would cause this?
[02:10] <Oly> whats the alternate?
[02:10] <mwalsh> anyone know wat the problem is?
[02:10] <xtknight> !alternate | Oly
[02:10] <ubotu> Oly: 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.
[02:10] <Oly> i thought there was only the live/install disk
[02:10] <tom47> Oly when this has happened to me in the past it was because of a dud cd ie burnt with errors ..... the first thing i would do in your situation is reboot with the cd and check it using the menu option when it boots
[02:11] <xtknight> mwalsh: how are they not playing? any errors?
[02:11] <xtknight> timo: no need to
[02:11] <mwalsh> xtknight: it says im missing a codec, but all the codecs are installed according to totem, this is with mpeg and avis
[02:11] <xtknight> timo: login as his root or his acct
[02:11] <Oly> Alright. iu"ll just go re download the sucker from another source
[02:11] <xtknight> timo: well unless you want ur own account.  i assumed this was just for helping him with some problem of his?
[02:12] <Oly> can someone link me to the alternative ?
[02:12] <xtknight> mwalsh: i would need the exact video codec, i.e. Windows media 9 video, or whatever that is failiing
[02:12] <xtknight> !alternative | Oly
[02:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about alternative - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:12] <xtknight> sorry, i can get you a link
[02:13] <timo> xtknight: ok will i need his password
[02:13] <mwalsh> xtknight: mpeg and avi
[02:13] <xtknight> Oly: here's one mirror for it at least http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/
[02:14] <xtknight> mwalsh: mpeg and avi are file formats (not codecs0
[02:14] <Oly> ty knight <3
[02:14] <recon> #ubuntu-comedyclub
[02:14] <MrElendig> xtknight: mpeg is usualy plain mpeg-2
[02:14] <MrElendig> but avi is a container
[02:14] <MrElendig> that can hold a number of codecs
[02:15] <xtknight> mwalsh: do any videos work?
[02:15] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah, but i need codecs to play them
[02:15] <arsentop> anyone any ideas about microsd formatting in edgy 6.10
[02:15] <soundray> beoba: still here?
[02:15] <MrElendig> altho, not a wery good container, matroska is superiour to avi
[02:15] <DrNickRiviera> does ubuntu run well on intel mac's?
[02:15] <xtknight> arsentop: just like a standard SD card?
[02:15] <arsentop> i refuse to accept the easiest way to fix the fact i cant read/mount/format it because gparted messed up
[02:15] <timo> xtknight:do i need to know his password
[02:15] <mwalsh> xtknight: no, none work, the only formats i have are mpg, wmv, and avi, and it says i need to install codecs
[02:15] <arsentop> would be to windows it.
[02:15] <xtknight> arsentop: vfat for compatibility (mac os, windows, linux reads vfat)
[02:15] <SurfnKid> hello
[02:15] <MrElendig> mwalsh: wiki.ubuntu.com and search for restreicted formats
[02:15] <SurfnKid> trying to copy a large set of files
[02:16] <arsentop> xtknight i cant even detect it in gparted now
[02:16] <soundray> DrNickRiviera: I booted feisty on my Mac Pro, it worked

[02:16] <slyfox> Help ! You know how you have Fn keys on your laptop - for brightness control ? My brightness is very low, how do i make it brighter? Fn+Brigtness does not work !
[02:16] <mwalsh> xtknight: i followed those direction,s andd it says all those codecs are installed, but they dont work.
[02:16] <tom47> !restrictedformats | mwalsh
[02:16] <SurfnKid> as a backup, how would i do this command from cli including hidden files/folders
[02:16] <arsentop> dmesg gives me alot of errors about "trying to acces nonexistent block-devices"
[02:16] <xtknight> mwalsh: could you post the error on pastebin please?
[02:16] <xtknight> timo: you do need to know his root pw if you want to login as his root.
[02:16] <xtknight> timo: or his user pw if you want to login as his user acct
[02:16] <DrNickRiviera> soundray: did you just use the 386 version or 64bit?
[02:17] <mwalsh> xtknight: ok one sec
[02:17] <xtknight> SurfnKid: cp -a   includes everything, recursive as well
[02:17] <MrElendig> slyfox: set it in bios, or serch for a tool for your laptop moddel, some laptops need a userland tool to use the special function keys
[02:17] <soundray> slyfox: this is usually an ACPI problem. Difficult to solve. Set your brightness at boot time (at the grub menu).
[02:17] <xtknight> SurfnKid: cp -a  (-a means archive)
[02:17] <soundray> DrNickRiviera: 64bit
[02:17] <jrib> SurfnKid: what command?
[02:17] <slyfox> soundray: so, reboot and while it is booting, make it brighter ?
[02:17] <SurfnKid> well im trying to copy /home/<user>/<hidden files>
[02:17] <SurfnKid> all the ones with a dot .
[02:18] <mwalsh> xtknight: http://pastebin.ca/327558
[02:18] <soundray> slyfox: yes, or listen to MrElendig
[02:18] <jrib> SurfnKid: cp -a /home/<user>/.* foo
[02:18] <SurfnKid> but when I try to do so thru gnome, i encounter errors, I think its the links that dont go thru
[02:18] <SurfnKid> foo is the destination?
[02:18] <beoba> soundray: back now, will reask:
[02:18] <beoba> hi, how do i go about getting dhcp to run on startup automatically? at the moment, it doesnt run automatically, and requires that i manually run 'dhclient' before network works
[02:18] <jrib> SurfnKid: yes
[02:18] <SurfnKid> th
[02:18] <SurfnKid> x
[02:18] <SurfnKid> thx MrElendig
[02:18] <xtknight> the kernel has some lcd brightness drivers
[02:18] <jpolanco> what does the noapic kernel parameter do?
[02:19] <MrElendig> beoba: use the network tool
[02:19] <beoba> MrElendig: im in openbox
[02:19] <MrElendig> then edit the file by hand
[02:19] <jpolanco> what does the noapic kernel parameter do?
[02:19] <beoba> which file?
[02:19] <xtknight> jpolanco: disables APIC (something used to notify the OS of IRQs and stuff, its just automated hardware setup).  use noapic to debug some hardware or mainboard issues
[02:19] <soundray> beoba: make sure there is an 'auto' entry for your interface in /etc/network/interfaces -- e.g. 'auto eth0'
[02:19] <jpolanco> ok thanks :)
[02:19] <xtknight> mwalsh: i havent forgotten about you
[02:19] <beoba> soundray: that would be it
[02:19] <xtknight> mwalsh: sec ;P
[02:20] <beoba> soundray: i have 'iface eth0 inet dhcp', will add 'auto eth0' above that and see if it does anything whenever i reboot again
[02:20] <elpargo> anyone here using seahorse? I can see the nautilus integration
[02:20] <JPMaximilian> msg nickserv
[02:20] <xtknight> mwalsh: is that from totem or mplayer?
[02:20] <soundray> beoba: I'm very optimistic that it will fix your prob ;)
[02:21] <xtknight> can flooding IDE status  { Busy } messages accompanied with freezing be the result of a defective IDE drive?  rare or common case?
[02:21] <mwalsh> xtknight: totem media playuer
[02:21] <mwalsh> xtknight: movie
[02:21] <xtknight> it happened with two pata controllers, being ridiculous
[02:22] <soundray> xtknight: drive or controller problem. Rescue your data a.s.a.p.
[02:22] <wasabi__> i installed xfce4-xfapplet-plugin; added it to the panel but for some reason the gnome-network manager won't appear
[02:22] <MrElendig> beoba: To permanently configure your network devices you need to edit the /etc/network/interfaces file. (Type 'man 5 interfaces' to see the manual for the available commands).
[02:22] <xtknight> soundray: nah just optical drives :)  intel sata and HDs are working great
[02:22] <beoba> MrElendig: yeah, got it
[02:22] <SurfnKid> jrib, would -a include all the ./folders too ?
[02:22] <soundray> xtknight: phew
[02:22] <SurfnKid> oh wait
[02:23] <SurfnKid> now I see what you did
[02:23] <SurfnKid> :)
[02:23] <jrib> SurfnKid: what do you mean by ./folders?
[02:23] <SurfnKid> you pointed that out ./*
[02:23] <SurfnKid> my bad :P
[02:23] <xtknight> ill probably just pick up a sata optical burner too, pata is no fun
[02:23] <xtknight> could it be the libata stuff?
[02:23] <TheVault> I need help and this will take real quick. I an following this tutorial on how to get Wireless internet. I can't go on because its showing this lock on this file and I am admin of this computer. Any idea on how to get the lock off so I can continue? http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y28/kylewitt/Admin.png
[02:23] <xtknight> i am using the newer kernel
[02:24] <jrib> SurfnKid: .*  not ./*   .* globs anything that starts with a dot.  ./* is anything that doesn't start with a dot in the current directory
[02:24] <xtknight> i cant use the older kernel it has no support for my ethernet (or the integrated IDE)
[02:24] <soundray> xtknight: it's a hardware problem in all likelihood.
[02:24] <xtknight> mwalsh: hmm, what happens in mplayer then?
[02:24] <SurfnKid> ah i see
[02:24] <mwalsh> xtknight: i dont think i have that
[02:24] <noiz> hi everyone....i just installed the new ubuntu and for some reason i cant get the battery to work i need to have the laptop conected to the electricity all the time...any suggestions???
[02:24] <jrib> SurfnKid: ./* is the same as *
[02:24] <SurfnKid> right i meant /.*
[02:24] <xtknight> soundray: out of curiosity can i compile one module out of the whole kernel source and insert it or do i have to recompile the whole kernel to add a module to my arsenal?
[02:25] <xtknight> soundray: (assuming same version of kernel)
[02:25] <SurfnKid> jrib, but what if those directories are hidden
[02:25] <TheVault> Can someone please help me real quick, this won't take no more than 5 mins I hope
[02:25] <SurfnKid> it still copies them?
[02:25] <jrib> SurfnKid: what directories?
[02:25] <soundray> xtknight: you can compile modules individually.
[02:25] <SurfnKid> like .amsn .amule
[02:25] <xtknight> mwalsh: videolan client?  install that and see if it plays
[02:25] <jrib> SurfnKid: they start with a dot, so yes
[02:25] <xtknight> mwalsh: youve got the good the bad and the ugly codec packs ?  (literally)
[02:25] <SurfnKid> ok gotcha
[02:25] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah it says i do
[02:26] <mwalsh> thevault: i think you need to right click and do permissions or something
[02:26] <MrElendig> mwalsh: try mplayer
[02:26] <MrElendig> in terminal
[02:26] <TheVault> yeah, but the options are not selectable
[02:26] <mwalsh> xtknight: ok
[02:26] <xtknight> soundray: like....   " make drivers/net/ixp2000 " for example at /usr/src/linux  ?
[02:26] <TheVault> should I move the file into my home directory first or something to do the changes?
[02:26] <wasabi__> anyone?
[02:26] <xtknight> soundray: i think i tried it and only came out with .o files and not .ko ones, maybe im just not looking in the right places
[02:26] <mwalsh> xtknight: donwloading right now
[02:26] <noiz> need some help with the laptop battery pls!
[02:26] <TheVault> I am admin on this computer
[02:26] <MrElendig> TheVault: sudo chown/chmod
[02:27] <wasabi__> i installed xfce4-xfapplet-plugin; but i network-manager won't appear
[02:27] <Kieran-Mage> Hey
[02:27] <TheVault> how will that know which file to chmod?
[02:27] <mwalsh> xtknight: leme try a movie
[02:27] <xtknight> Kieran-Mage: hello
[02:27] <kowakowalski> moin moin
[02:27] <Kieran-Mage> This is going to sound stupid, but does anyone know how to dial up on Ubuntu?
[02:28] <Kieran-Mage> I'm new to Linux
[02:28] <xtknight> why would "on the fly" be disabled in k3b?
[02:28] <mwalsh> xtknight: error initializing the video out device? wat the helld oes that mean
[02:28] <jrib> !dialup | Kieran-Mage
[02:28] <ubotu> Kieran-Mage: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[02:28] <xtknight> oh never mind im using "clone copy" instead of "normal copy", only normal has on the fly i guess
[02:28] <timo> hi , so why dose ssh not give me any feedback
[02:28] <soundray> xtknight: I think you just change the .config and run 'make modules'. This won't update your linux-image package though.
[02:28] <jrib> timo: more info
[02:28] <xtknight> soundray: oh, would that place it in /lib/modules ?
[02:28] <Kieran-Mage> Thanks
[02:28] <soundray> xtknight: caveat: I think it's been four years since I last compiled a kernel.
[02:29] <xtknight> soundray: rebuild of initrd would only be needed for builtin drivers right (not modules) ?
[02:29] <soundray> xtknight: no
[02:29] <Dolyn> !<403>
[02:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 403 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:29] <topgun553> W-i-n-d-o-w-s - spam - spyware -updates -community  = ubuntu + easy to understand + canon printers + ease of use + easy to modify
[02:29] <xtknight> mwalsh: umm.
[02:29] <mwalsh> xtknight: did you get that?
[02:29] <soundray> xtknight: no, initrd or initramfs are for modularized drivers that are nevertheless needed for booting.
[02:29] <topgun553> Windows > Ubuntu?
[02:29] <xtknight> mwalsh: yeah, thinking
[02:30] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah wtf haha
[02:30] <ransomheartache> do i have to install a separate package for the python gzip module? i can't seem to find anything about that
[02:30] <xtknight> mwalsh: know what it means, it just seems weird.  install mplayer while you're at it
[02:30] <eigenlambda> topgun553: common misperception
[02:30] <_`XeOn_> how to init a tyy console?
[02:30] <ed__> where do i get a list of all the channels?
[02:30] <ransomheartache> ImportError: No module named gzip
[02:30] <eigenlambda> in reality, ubuntu > windows
[02:30] <xtknight> ed__: /list
[02:30] <topgun553> eigenlambda, what is common misperception?
[02:30] <TheDebugger> Yes.. the reality of freenode
[02:30] <mwalsh> xtknight: i did, thats the error mplayer gave me
[02:30] <TheDebugger> Which is the opposite of real life
[02:30] <jrib> ransomheartache: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-zlib.html
[02:30] <ed__> ... the /list command doesn't bring anything up...
[02:30] <xtknight> mwalsh: what about using mplayer -vo xv  <file>  ?
[02:31] <_`XeOn_> !tty
[02:31] <ubotu> To get to the tty terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login).
[02:31] <eigenlambda> your life is the opposite of a life
[02:31] <JPMaximilian> noiz: what kind of laptop do you have?
[02:31] <topgun553> eigenlambda, why is ubuntu > windows?
[02:31] <ransomheartache> E: Couldn't find package zlib
[02:31] <eigenlambda> because it's free
[02:31] <jrib> ransomheartache: gzip is in the standard library too I believe
[02:31] <mwalsh> xtknight: why would that net a different result than just opening it
[02:31] <timo>  xtknight: what doe this mean ? Received CTCP 'PING 1169688586641' (to timo)
[02:31] <foutrelis> topgun553: Cause it is
[02:31] <eigenlambda> windows is proprietary crapware
[02:31] <eternalswd> !ebuilds
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ebuilds - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <eigenlambda> the only reason anybody uses it is the network effect
[02:31] <topgun553> Windows works
[02:31] <foutrelis> *pinches
[02:31] <soundray> eigenlambda: please, this is not the place to feed trolls
[02:31] <noiz> JPMaximilian: toshiba satellite...it used to work well with last ubuntu instalation
[02:31] <topgun553> Ubuntu kinda does
[02:31] <tim167> synaptic closes right after opening while still 'reading packages', how come ??
[02:31] <eigenlambda> lol
[02:31] <eigenlambda> i guess
[02:31] <xtknight> timo: probably just the IRC server asking you for a heartbeat (irc technical stuff dont worry about it)
[02:32] <topgun553> well works for about 3 weeks
[02:32] <eternalswd> anyone know about converting ebuilds to debs?
[02:32] <eigenlambda> how do i use qos?
[02:32] <mwalsh> topgun yeah man its a real pain in the ass
[02:32] <xtknight> mwalsh: because XV is an alternate driver
[02:32] <JPMaximilian> noiz: when i installed ubuntu on my acer, is just autodetected the battery and other laptop related things
[02:32] <jrib> ransomheartache: they are both in the stanard lib
[02:32] <timo> xtknight: no im still trying to ssh
[02:32] <topgun553> I decided to give ubuntu a fair try
[02:32] <jrib> standard even
[02:32] <topgun553> I deleted windows from my computer
[02:32] <topgun553> completly
[02:32] <xtknight> timo: well that is an irc message
[02:32] <topgun553> and ran just ubuntu
[02:32] <TheVault> MrElendig: I am unsure what you mean by the chmod. I am trying to take the lock off this file. Here is the full path. /home/kylewitt/bcm4311/R115321.EXE, this file has a small lock thats orange
[02:32] <topgun553> for 2 months
[02:32] <topgun553> I am on my computer nonstop
[02:32] <charlymonti> some one can tell me how can i setup a user to create files with specific permissions ??
[02:32] <timo> xtknight: the person im ssh into got that massege
[02:32] <xtknight> TheVault: you need to change the owner with chown
[02:32] <mwalsh> xtknight: how do i get to the same directory my files in
[02:33] <ransomheartache> jrib: save me from my ignorance, do i need to apt-get something for the standard lib?
[02:33] <topgun553> I got dual montior to work after much pain, but there are still things that ubuntu just can't do
[02:33] <TheVault> so how would i do that?
[02:33] <TheVault> XtKnight?
[02:33] <xtknight> TheVault: it's your file uunder your dir so chown is probably the proper thing
[02:33] <charlymonti> this on ubuntu version Server
[02:33] <jrib> ransomheartache: no, it should be installed with python.  What version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:33] <xtknight> TheVault: sudo chown -R kylewitt:kylewitt /home/kylewitt/bcm*
[02:33] <TheVault> thank you
[02:33] <noiz> JPMaximilian: do you know if there is anything i can run to get it working???
[02:33] <charlymonti>  some one can tell me how can i setup a user to create files with specific permissions ??
[02:34] <xtknight> mwalsh: cd /path/to/folder
[02:34] <soundray> topgun553: do you need any help still?
[02:34] <ransomheartache> jrib: 6.06
[02:34] <xtknight> mwalsh: where are the files? desktop?
[02:34] <foutrelis> topgun553: stop whining. Enjoy your windows spyware and trojan horses ;)
[02:34] <topgun553> foutrelis, I don't have windows I have ubuntu
[02:34] <mwalsh> xtknight: external hard drive labeled Ext. HD
[02:34] <jrib> ransomheartache: dpkg -L python2.4 | grep gzip
[02:34] <xtknight> foutrelis: trollish it seems.  ubuntu isnt perfect
[02:34] <topgun553> soundray,  yeah if you know how to fix some problems
[02:34] <foutrelis> topgun553: that's nice :)
[02:34] <TheVault> THANK YOU GUYS A MILLION
[02:34] <charlymonti> I need to setup a user to be able to create files with permissions 775
[02:34] <TheVault> That worked
[02:34] <charlymonti> automaticly
[02:34] <TheVault> :D Thanks again
[02:35] <xtknight> charlymonti: they can do that if they own the file
[02:35] <JPMaximilian> noiz: no i don't, its seems strange that the battery would not work
[02:35] <xtknight> TheVault: no problemo
[02:35] <xtknight> mwalsh: uhh.  ok it would be under /media
[02:35] <Vommy> Funny, I've been up over 38 hours
[02:35] <Vommy> an dim not so sleepy
[02:35] <xtknight> Vommy: your system i hope?  :P
[02:35] <ransomheartache> jrib: Package `python2.4' is not installed
[02:35] <mwalsh> xtknight: yes, so wuts the cd command
[02:35] <Vommy> xtknight? :D
[02:35] <foutrelis> Vommy: wow.. you really should get some Zzzzzs :)
[02:35] <soundray> topgun553: just ask, or join #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to discuss pros and cons of Ubuntu compared to proprietary OSs
[02:35] <ransomheartache> jrib: but python -V returns Python 2.4.3
[02:35] <jrib> ransomheartache: erm ok, what package gives you python?
[02:35] <xtknight> mwalsh: cd /media/    then immediately press tab  and see where the ext hd dir is
[02:36] <topgun553> soundray, do you know how to get Canon mp130 printer / fix resolution of my dual montior/ get maple and mathmatica to work
[02:36] <Vommy> my system has usually been up for few weeks :b
[02:36] <Vommy> My black little sonata is still better than me :(
[02:36] <xtknight> mines been up for 56 mins
[02:36] <topgun553> soundray, or get my palm to connect
[02:36] <ransomheartache> jrib: i probably just installed apt-get python
[02:36] <arsentop> well thats dissapointing
[02:36] <xtknight> its up for weeks though sometimes hehe
[02:36] <soundray> topgun553: for your printer, get a driver from turboprint.de
[02:36] <xtknight> woohoo for ide crashes!
[02:36] <arsentop> good old windows, insert memory card > "not formatted, format?" "yes"... card fixed
[02:36] <eternalswd> mwalsh, didn't you set your ext harddrive to mount to /media/external?
[02:36] <jrib> ransomheartache: I'm pretty sure python just depends on python2.4.
[02:36] <soundray> !fixres | topgun553, for your resolution problem
[02:36] <ubotu> topgun553, for your resolution problem: 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
[02:36] <xtknight> lol arsentop good old linux: mkdosfs /media/<sdcard> :)
[02:36] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah but the fstab didnt work apparently
[02:36] <topgun553> topgun553, turboprint.de cost like 70 dollars, it would be cheaper to get a new printer
[02:37] <ransomheartache> jrib: weird, if i run apt-get install python now it says it will install python2.4
[02:37] <mwalsh> xtknight: now its not listing it
[02:37] <charlymonti> but they create the file from a application on windows so what i need is setup by default that user to create files with permissions 755 by default
[02:37] <xtknight> mwalsh: well lets fix media playing first
[02:37] <ransomheartache> i'm going to try  it
[02:37] <noiz> JPMaximilian: jup its kinda weird cuz i says it charges and everything but then when i want to run on battery the charge just seems to run out
[02:37] <jrib> ransomheartache: oh, ubuntu may just install python-minimal by default.  That will probably fix your problems
[02:37] <xtknight> mwalsh: vlc can also change itself to XV, go in the configuration for VLC and find video output device
[02:37] <soundray> topgun553: maple and mathematica are commercial as far as I know, so you should ask the vendors for support.
[02:37] <arsentop> xtknight think you're missing the point :\
[02:37] <vanberge> can anybody recommend a good way to convert video to .3gp format? :-P  thx in adance
[02:37] <ransomheartache> jrib: yup, that was it. thanks!
[02:37] <jrib> ransomheartache: np
[02:38] <ssteel> alguem fala portugues ?
[02:38] <mwalsh> xtknight: vlc? im in mplayer
[02:38] <topgun553> soundray, if i run this resolution thing, will it affect my dual montior set up?
[02:38] <DarthShrine> I just installed Edgy on my laptop with a D-Link DWL-G630 card. During the install, it was detected and worked fine, however upon booting into Ubuntu, it's not even detected.
[02:38] <Vommy> well, im a bit sleepy i just realized
[02:38] <soundray> topgun553: turboprint drivers cost 30 euros when I bought them
[02:38] <arsentop> there IS NO /media/<sdblah>
[02:38] <xtknight> mwalsh: gnome gmplayer front end or the command line mplayer?
[02:38] <arsentop> as gparted fusked it.
[02:38] <Vommy> but cant sleep before i have Ubuntu!
[02:38] <soundray> topgun553: I don't know, I haven't tried
[02:38] <xtknight> arsentop: sorry, /dev/sdx  not /media/...
[02:38] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah the first one
[02:38] <eternalswd> mwalsh, to get mplayer to use xv, edit your ~/.mplayer/config file to have the line "vo=xv"
[02:38] <xtknight> arsentop: /media doesnt even exist until its been formatted
[02:38] <JPMaximilian> noiz: does the battery work in windows, you might just have a dead battery
[02:38] <bokey> Vommy, go to sleep. it's not healthy.
[02:38] <arsentop> exactly
[02:38] <arsentop> now that ive formatted it
[02:38] <arsentop> its not there still ;\
[02:38] <mwalsh> xtknight: that xv thing works
[02:38] <xtknight> lol
[02:39] <xtknight> well
[02:39] <JPMaximilian> noiz: they lose thier ability to hold a charge after a while
[02:39] <soundray> topgun553: what kind of palm do you have?
[02:39] <xtknight> mwalsh: that's good.  keep it that way i guess?  :)
[02:39] <timo> xtknight: tell me exactly how to ssh name@host dont work
[02:39] <bef> seek help with graphics driver: fglrx driver not allow direct rendering; but valid with game i play.. ati driver (linux adapt) allow direct rendering but give error in game which fixed with fglrx but the loss are to great? how can kick two birds with one shoe
[02:39] <xtknight> any way to get totem /gstreamer to use XV?
[02:39] <topgun553> i have a pam
[02:39] <MarcN> DarthShrine: check to see if the wireless is supported by linux; http://linux-wless.passys.nl/
[02:39] <topgun553> soundray, tungsten
[02:39] <arsentop> xtknight, any idea what setpci -s 06:05.3 4c=22
[02:39] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah sure
[02:39] <arsentop> would do
[02:39] <bokey> timo, have you started ssh at the other end ?
[02:39] <xtknight> timo: are you sure the guy isnt behind a NAT?  has he properly configured his end so you can access his ip and ports?
[02:39] <arsentop> as i did that to attempt a fix, and now it doesnt automount the card :x
[02:39] <xtknight> arsentop: not really
[02:39] <noiz> JPMaximilian: well it works fine on windows.....ill try to take all the charge out and recharge it on ubuntu and see what happens
[02:40] <soundray> topgun553: have you tried the gpilot applet?
[02:40] <arsentop> not sre what 4c WAS
[02:40] <charlymonti> I have a user creating files from windows applications on a folder on my linux server but by default he create files with permission 644 and I need this user to create files with permissions 775
[02:40] <noiz> is anyone running Ruby on Rails???
[02:40] <arsentop> the first number element is from lspci of the Texas Instruments line
[02:40] <jrib> !anyone | noiz
[02:40] <ubotu> noiz: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:40] <DarthShrine> MarcN, Looks like it.
[02:40] <timo> bokey:how do i start ssh on his part
[02:40] <bokey> timo, invoke-rc.d ssh start
[02:40] <charlymonti> what can I do to setup the user that way
[02:41] <charlymonti> somebody can give me any idea??
[02:41] <MarcN> topgun553: I find gpilot flaky, jpilot is pretty nice but not integrated with evolution, etc.  pilot-xfer is handy for quick backups, install files, etc.
[02:41] <Xappe> I have a bit of a problem: I need to run mplayer with -vo xvidix (requires root privs) from within freevo. How can I accomplish that?
[02:41] <xtknight> timo: this should work  (000s are ip)   ssh 000.000.000.000 -l loginname
[02:41] <charlymonti> I have a user creating files from windows applications on a folder on my linux server but by default he create files with permission 644 and I need this user to create files with permissions 775
[02:41] <AmbientMstr> IO Buffer error hdb logical block
[02:41] <topgun553> soundray, I tried Kpilot
[02:41] <topgun553> it finds my palm but doesn't hotsync
[02:41] <foutrelis> chalcedny: plz stop posting the same question over and over
[02:42] <mwalsh> xtknight: this is bullshit
[02:42] <xtknight> lots of things are
[02:42] <xtknight> ;P
[02:42] <Vommy> bokey dont worry :b
[02:42] <mwalsh> xtknight: now it says theres no audio device, therefore, it wont let me watch a video
[02:42] <ssmasud> hey....my GCC doesnt work...when i type "sudo apt-cache search gcc" ...it says that it has gcc-4.0-base installed but when i run GCC.....it doesnt work....what to do
[02:42] <jrib> ssmasud: install build-essential
[02:42] <xtknight> ssmasud: gcc lower case?
[02:42] <soundray> topgun553: I got my wife's Palm TX to sync with gpilot eventually, but it was a fight.
[02:42] <bef> ssmasud sudo apt-get update gcc
[02:43] <noiz> Does anyone here is working with Ruby on Rails???
[02:43] <xtknight> mwalsh: umm..well what happened?  it all of a sudden didnt work?

[02:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tyy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:43] <ubotu> noiz: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:43] <bokey> noiz, #ruby
[02:43] <foutrelis> :|
[02:43] <soundray> topgun553: support for certain types of hardware sucks in Linux, but this is primarily the manufacturers' fault.
[02:43] <_`XeOn_> o.O
[02:43] <foutrelis> O.o :)
[02:43] <mwalsh> xtknight: wehn i try to open vidoes, could not open /initial-audio device, /no-sound
[02:43] <_`XeOn_> !tty
[02:43] <ubotu> To get to the tty terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login).
[02:44] <timo> xtknight: invoke-rc.d: initscript ssh, action "start" failed.
[02:44] <noiz> sorry guyz...complete n00b here ;)
[02:44] <ssmasud> ok i will try this and get back to u......the problem is that I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 which has an Intel 3945G wirless card...I cant download the updates because when i do so...my wifi stops functioning.....
[02:44] <topgun553> soundray, thats what I was talking about as a benefit for windows
[02:44] <ssmasud> thats why i didnt update it
[02:44] <xtknight> timo: it was bokey who told you that command.  im not sure
[02:44] <soundray> topgun553: if they put out specs in the open, they'd have opensource drivers written for them. Alas, they just aren't enlightened that way.
[02:44] <mwalsh> xtknight: this only happens with wmvs but the other formats give me the same erros bur at least they play the videos.
[02:44] <noiz> bokey: thanks..ill check it out
[02:44] <topgun553> i mean I don't like comming to an irc chat everytime i want to plug something into my computer
[02:44] <bokey> timo, what's wrong ?
[02:44] <Kieran-Mage> ...
[02:44] <rellik> is the pastebin broken? It says I don't have javascript enabled..  but I do.
[02:45] <xtknight> rellik: pastebin ubuntu nl works for me
[02:45] <Kieran-Mage> I have to pay for my drivers...
[02:45] <Kieran-Mage> great.
[02:45] <AmbientMstr> Why do I get a IO Buffer error hdb logical block when trying to install Ubuntu?
[02:45] <charlymonti> I have a user creating files from windows applications on a folder on my linux server but by default he create files with permission 644 and I need this user to create files with permissions 775
[02:45] <foutrelis> chalcedny: |
[02:45] <xtknight> charlymonti: ask in #linux , apparently no one knows
[02:45] <_`XeOn_> how do u restart ubuntu trough the console?
[02:46] <soundray> topgun553: clearly, there are advantages and disadvantages to either system. To me, I don't think I could give up the freedom of Linux now, even if I wanted to.
[02:46] <DarthShrine> _`XeOn_, sudo reboot
[02:46] <_`XeOn_> ty
[02:46] <AmbientMstr> Sigh
[02:46] <mwalsh> xtknight: sigh, this is why im gonna go back to windows
[02:46] <mwalsh> why cant things just work
[02:46] <timo> bokey: invoke-rc.d: initscript ssh, action "start" failed.
[02:46] <xtknight> mwalsh: are you running 32-bit or 64-bit ubuntu
[02:46] <AmbientMstr> This is why I can't even GET to Linux
[02:46] <mwalsh> xtknight: how do i check
[02:46] <xtknight> because microsoft doesn't document WMV, that's why things dont work
[02:46] <bokey> timo, are you root ?
[02:46] <mwalsh> well dude the problems are beyond that
[02:46] <mwalsh> i mean, windows just works.. ubuntu has TONS Of problems
[02:46] <Kieran-Mage> Blah, I cant believe I have to pay to get full 56k on my modem.
[02:46] <mwalsh> why cant they just make it work
[02:47] <Kieran-Mage> I mean, I'm already forced on dialup in the first place! :P
[02:47] <mwalsh> not for nothing, but why do you have a modem?
[02:47] <timo>  bokey:ah
[02:47] <xtknight> mwalsh: really?  windows doesnt work for me in tons of ways
[02:47] <xtknight> mwalsh: for example i have to scramble to find my mobo CD just to get any internet to work.  in ubuntu it just works after i install it
[02:47] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah i did that for my internet too do you have an asus mobo
[02:47] <timo> bokey: sudo invoke-rc.d ssh start
[02:47] <xtknight> mwalsh: gigabyte mobo, have tons of asus mobos too
[02:47] <mwalsh> xtknight: but those are easy fixes, tehres really no comparison
[02:48] <timo> bokey:so yeh i am root
[02:48] <bokey> timo, yes
[02:48] <bef> mwalsh: window's has tons of problems; however instead of you being able to solve them you simply have your system compensated.. ubuntu allows you to solve your problems and become as efficient as possible... there's also the fact that your hardware/software is unlikely natively designed for linux, so adaption is ofcourse going to be neccesary!
[02:48] <belkin> Failed to start Volume Control: Failed to execute child process "gnome-volume-control" (No such file or directory
[02:48] <xtknight> mwalsh: if you already know what to do, yes
[02:48] <mwalsh> xtknight: i mean, almst nothing works the way its supposed to
[02:48] <belkin> i just reinstall it and still nothing
[02:48] <timo>  bokey: what can i do now
[02:48] <Vommy> oops
[02:48] <rellik> anyone here good with xinerama?  I am trying to get two displays set up on one GeForce 5600. I have it working, except that it is cloning the displays instead of spanning the desktop across them. I have tried Option-clone-false with no change..  my xong.conf is: http://pastie.caboo.se/35475
[02:48] <mwalsh> of course, but still though, theres no reason 80% of things shouldnt work.
[02:48] <xtknight> mwalsh: honestly it's just because you/we're used to windows.  maybe its not so bad, i dont know why youre having trouble with WMV
[02:48] <Vommy> 2.7 million combo on tony hawk's :D
[02:48] <bef> rellik: I have a walk through you can use!
[02:48] <xtknight> mwalsh: type " uname -a " and report the results.  i can tell you if youre running 32 or 64
[02:48] <timo>  bokey: its trying to connect a port 22

[02:49] <rellik> bef thanks I'll take a look
[02:49] <AmbientMstr> Why do I get a IO Buffer error hdb logical block when trying to install Ubuntu?
[02:49] <mwalsh> xtknight: i686
[02:49] <xtknight> mwalsh: 32-bit.  well that's good since WMV could just work.  but i dont understand...it was working a second ago, righT?
[02:49] <foutrelis> gn soundray :)
[02:49] <bef> rellik: of course, no problem.. enjoy =] 
[02:49] <bokey> timo, sshd (server in daemon mode) is started at the other end. now go to your other machine and do ssh x@a.b.c.d
[02:49] <mwalsh> xtknight: wmvs never worked
[02:49] <mwalsh> xtknight: watever, i dont care anymroe
[02:49] <xtknight> lol
[02:49] <foutrelis> rolf :P
[02:49] <foutrelis> *fl
[02:50] <bokey> timo, x is your username at the other machine. a.b.c.d are the ip address
[02:50] <arsentop> anyone any ideas why writing to my SD card is pretty much impossible, it copies the first part of one file requested
[02:50] <arsentop> and the rest just hang and the "remaining timer" just increases indefinately.
[02:50] <AmbientMstr> Why do I get a IO Buffer error hdb logical block when trying to install Ubuntu?
[02:51] <timo>  bokey: ssh xx.xx.xx.xx.xx -l user    ?
[02:51] <Vommy> 10 secs!!!
[02:51] <Vommy> and doooooooownload is finisheeeeeeed!
[02:51] <bokey> timo, you could do that. whatever prefer you.
[02:51] <foutrelis> timo: ssh username@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx works fine for me :)
[02:51] <andre> hello everyone
[02:51] <foutrelis> hi
[02:51] <andre> :)
[02:51] <timo> bokey: timo, sshd (server in daemon mode) is started at the other end what did you mean by this
[02:52] <andre> I've got a question regarding vsftpd,  would anyone here by chance have any experience with VSFTPD?
[02:52] <crazy_bus> My brother really wants to play msn messenger games with me.  Is there any online card games that work cross platform?
[02:52] <xtknight> andre: not me, but what's your question about it?
[02:53] <bokey> timo, after doing invoke-rc.d ssh start, ssh server starts at your machine. now you need to access it with your client. Hence, ssh username@host from your client should be issued.
[02:53] <AmbientMstr> Is anyone able to answer my question???
[02:53] <timo> tarting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...                               [fail] 
[02:53] <timo> invoke-rc.d: initscript ssh, action "start" failed.
[02:53] <xtknight> AmbientMstr: is /dev/hdb a hard drive?
[02:53] <timo> bokey: ^^
[02:54] <AmbientMstr> Yes
[02:54] <andre> well I've set up the vsftpd.conf file properly, the only problem is it still wont allow my local users to connect giving me an error 530
[02:54] <adamonline45> On an Ubuntu Server install, at the partitioning stage, it only shows two partitions: #1, primary, /media/hda1 and #5, logical, swap.  Is this normal?
[02:54] <xtknight> bokey  /  timo:  isnt it   sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start
[02:54] <xtknight> AmbientMstr: does not sound good.  you may want to backup your data. the hard drive has errors
[02:54] <bokey> xtknight, it's the same. except the correct way is "invoke-rc.d".
[02:55] <AmbientMstr> I've reformatted it though like 3 times
[02:55] <xtknight> AmbientMstr: it has physical errors
[02:55] <timo> xtknight:sudo: /etc/init.d/sshd: command not found
[02:55] <xtknight> AmbientMstr: or, it could.
[02:55] <xtknight> timo: sorry, never mind that
[02:55] <Vommy> NOW
[02:56] <Vommy> LETS SEE IF IT WORKS
[02:56] <Vommy> brb
[02:56] <AmbientMstr> Hrm
[02:56] <foutrelis> ^_^
[02:56] <Vandalay> gl!!
[02:57] <Alakazamz0r> is there a way to see the output of /dev/tty1 over SSH?
[02:58] <xtknight> Alakazamz0r: umm, cat /dev/tty1?  :P
[02:58] <Alakazamz0r> xtknight: no dice.
[02:58] <Weems> I changed my hard drive to another ide chain is there a way to tell ubuntu this so it will boot?
[02:58] <Weems> im in live cd now
[02:58] <Alakazamz0r> im now doing "tail -f /dev/tty1 >> output.txt &
[02:58] <Weems> 5.04
[02:58] <Alakazamz0r> to see if it'll do anything
[02:59] <timo> bokey:can you get my pms ?
[02:59] <bokey> timo, no
[02:59] <bef> Linux Mint ftw.
[02:59] <rellik> bef, I looked through your guide..  I added the line 'Option "MonitorLayout" "DFP, CRT"' to the two devices..  but still I am getting cloned displays..  any ideas?
[02:59] <bokey> timo, are you registered ?
[02:59] <timo> no
[02:59] <timo> (01:58:41 AM) timo: what can i expect to see if it did work
[02:59] <xtknight> Weems: you can modify grub menu.lst
[03:00] <xtknight> Weems: ide chain?  you mean from primary to secondary on the channel?
[03:00] <Weems> new ide cored
[03:00] <Weems> cord*
[03:00] <bef> rellik: "Note that Screen 1 could also be "Clone", "LeftOf", "RightOf", "Above", or "Below"."
[03:00] <Weems> it was hda
[03:00] <Weems> now its hdb
[03:00] <foutrelis> going to sleep. gn fellows -_-
[03:00] <xtknight> Weems: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst in root mode
[03:00] <timo> bokey:  Connection timed out
[03:00] <Weems> ok
[03:00] <bokey> timo, if it works correctly, you will have ssh server working on your server. to which you can connect. however, users will need to authenticate themselve to the machine.
[03:01] <D7k> I have this extra computer loaded up with ubuntu, but now, I ask, what should I do with it?
[03:01] <xtknight> Weems: (hd0,x) is /dev/hda in grub nomenclature.  hdb would be (hd1,x)
[03:01] <rellik> bef yes..  I have RightOf
[03:01] <xtknight> Weems: you need to also change the kernel command line
[03:01] <Weems> how do i do that
[03:01] <tarelerulz> What is the ubuntu right before the newest one?
[03:01] <Weems> and is there anything special I need to do since im in live cd?
[03:01] <xtknight> Weems: you need to mount your linux partition
[03:01] <Weems> ok
[03:01] <xtknight> tarelerulz: Dapper?
[03:02] <xtknight> tarelerulz: /dev/hdb1 is your linux now?  hdb1 or hdb2?  hdb3?
[03:02] <tarelerulz> Thanks
[03:02] <xtknight> tarelerulz: i am speaking of linux root ( /  )
[03:02] <JPMaximilian>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[03:02] <Weems> its hdb2
[03:02] <xtknight> Weems: sudo mkdir -p /media/hdb2 && sudo mount /dev/hdb2 /media/hdb2
[03:02] <tarelerulz> I don't have Linux on this computer
[03:03] <timo> bokey: this means i t did not work right ?  Connection timed out
[03:03] <xtknight> Weems: gksudo gedit /media/hdb2/boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:03] <bokey> timo, yes. just hang on. let me fire up my xubuntu
[03:03] <tarelerulz> plus the one I do have is on second hard drive
[03:03] <mwalsh> EMERGENCY
[03:03] <xtknight> tarelerulz: sorry, i sent those msgs to the wrong person
[03:03] <mwalsh> OH GOD
[03:03] <mwalsh> EMERGENCY
[03:03] <mwalsh> I JUST DELETED A PARTITION ACCIDENTALLY BUT I DIDNT REFORMAT CAN I GET MY DATA BACK?
[03:04] <xtknight> !caps
[03:04] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[03:04] <someothernick> !caps
[03:04] <mwalsh> sorry
[03:04] <mwalsh> this is devastating
[03:04] <xtknight> mwalsh: yes, most likely
[03:04] <mwalsh> xtknight: how?! im gonna kill myself!
[03:04] <tom47> (((((((( mwalsh )))))))))) feel better?
[03:04] <timo>  bokey:ok great
[03:04] <xtknight> mwalsh: well first of all.  i recommend avoiding access to the HD as much as possible as it could damage data.  boot into a livecd and come back
[03:04] <tarelerulz> Do any of you know of free ntfs resizing program for windows that you  resize while windows is running?
[03:04] <mwalsh> ok
[03:05] <bef> rellik: sorry, im not sure then.. i'll have a poke around and if i find something which could be usefull i'll let you know :] 
[03:05] <LjL> tarelerulz: i highly doubt that's possible
[03:05] <LjL> tarelerulz: besides, this is an ubuntu support channel, there is ##windows ;)
[03:05] <Weems> xtknight: theres no grub foldr in /boot
[03:05] <Weems> !pastebin
[03:05] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:05] <xtknight> Weems: im really not familiar with ubuntu 5.04, sorry.
[03:05] <xtknight> Weems: /media/hdb2/boot/grub does not exist?
[03:06] <Weems> right
[03:06] <xtknight> Weems: what about /media/hdb2/boot/menu.lst ?
[03:06] <tarelerulz> Well, I will have ubuntu on my computer if I can resize my ntfs so I can make room for an ext3 partition
[03:06] <xtknight> where is the grub menu list for Hoary?
[03:06] <sleepy723> How do I view .rtf files
[03:06] <Weems> oh wait..
[03:06] <Weems> its there..
[03:06] <Weems> dunno what i did before
[03:06] <xtknight> sleepy723: openoffice should view them, maybe abiword
[03:07] <xtknight> Weems: ok, edit it.  gksudo gedit /media/hdb2/boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:07] <tom47> Weems you can sometimes achieve what you want by adjusting yr bios
[03:07] <Deech> Hello. Does edgy add gui wpa support?
[03:07] <Vandalay> with openoffice
[03:07] <Eldrani> I'm having trouble with my Win98 reading my boot disk.
[03:07] <JPMaximilian> Deech: not to my knowledge, i don't think it even comes with wpa_supplicant installed
[03:07] <Weems> xtknight what line am I looking for
[03:08] <Eldrani> I'll write the ISO to the disk like the instructions said, but the disk drive won't even open the disk!
[03:08] <xtknight> Weems: first find the ones that look like  (hd0,0) or (hd1,1) ,  etc
[03:08] <Weems> ok
[03:08] <Eldrani> What did I do wrong?
[03:08] <xtknight> Weems: you need to change that from (hd0,x) to (hd1,x),  retain whatever x is as the partition would not change
[03:08] <Deech> hum.. 6.06 installs wpa_supplicant by default...
[03:08] <xtknight> Weems: (hd1,1) for /dev/hdb2 i think
[03:09] <xtknight> Weems: also, there is a root=  passed to a linux kernel.  that needs to be /dev/hdb2 now
[03:09] <JPMaximilian> Deech: i guess i'm wrong then
[03:09] <Eldrani> Any idea why my disk drive won't read the disk?
[03:10] <JPMaximilian> Deech: i have to do everything by the command line, so if you find a gui for it let me knwo :)
[03:10] <eigenlambda> lol wondershaper
[03:10] <ssmasud> i tried doing "sudo apt-get install build-essential" but it says that "cannot find build essential"..what to do
[03:10] <xtknight> Eldrani: is your bios set to read from the cd?
[03:10] <eigenlambda> wondershaper is perfect
[03:10] <xtknight> eigenlambda: what's that?  some new bowflex machine? lol
[03:10] <timo> bokey:
[03:10] <Eldrani> Well, the disk won't even open from Windows itself, it just freezes until I eject it.
[03:10] <tom47> ssmasud are your repository sttings correct?
[03:10] <eigenlambda> wondershaper is the QoS setup script
[03:10] <Deech> heh. Thanks for the help. wasn't trying to be a smartass. :)
[03:10] <Weems> ok thanks xtknight
[03:10] <xtknight> Eldrani: that's weird.  faulty cd probably
[03:11] <xtknight> Weems: wait
[03:11] <Deech> just thinking out loud as I looked at it..
[03:11] <xtknight> Weems: paste it to pastebin and i can verify
[03:11] <eigenlambda> to make your games fast even while pirating
[03:11] <Weems> ok
[03:11] <xtknight> Weems: also you need to modify fstab
[03:11] <Eldrani> Is it alright if it's CD_RW?
[03:11] <xtknight> Weems: but that is not in menu.lst
[03:11] <xtknight> Eldrani: yeah thats fine
[03:11] <Deech> seems theres a text client called wpa_cli
[03:11] <Eldrani> Wel, I don't want to corrupt another disk, I only have two left.
[03:11] <ssmasud> tom47......i am not running a full update..as it will turn my wireless card down...i need to install NS2 for which I need GCC....so how can I get GCC only
[03:11] <elpargo> hi I can't get ssh to work on the "connect to server" dialog is there a place I can watch a log of what is happening?
[03:11] <xtknight> Eldrani: you burned the iso image to the disc right?  you didnt place the iso in a folder and then burned that?
[03:11] <JPMaximilian> Deech: no worries, i thought I remembered installed wpa_supplicant, but i must not have
[03:12] <Eldrani> Could it be related to the fact that WinRAR recognizes the ISO as an unzippable file?
[03:12] <Weems> xtknight: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2825/
[03:12] <xtknight> Eldrani: (as in, the iso image got placed right on the cd in whole, not the iso as one file on the cd)
[03:12] <Eldrani> No, I used the application it told me to and burned the ISO into it.
[03:12] <Eldrani> I didn't drag n drop.
[03:12] <tom47> ssmasud: let me re-ead yr original question
[03:12] <xtknight> Weems: great.  good job.  your windows is still the same right?
[03:12] <Weems> yes
[03:13] <Weems> its been working fine
[03:13] <xtknight> Weems: ok.  now do `gksudo gedit /media/hdb2/etc/fstab`
[03:13] <timo> xtknight:how can he configure his ports
[03:13] <Weems> seems the switch from ide cables didnt affect it
[03:13] <Weems> ok
[03:13] <xtknight> timo: umm :(
[03:13] <timo> xtknight:lol ssh
[03:13] <xtknight> timo: arduous process hehe
[03:13] <xtknight> timo: depends on half a billion things.  does he have a nat router?
[03:13] <SmAcKaSs> anyone kno how to install from a text-based approach?
[03:13] <timo> yeh he sed he had a router
[03:14] <xtknight> timo: he needs to forward the ports or become DMZ (demilitarized zone) on his router.  look in the documentation for that (i know people loathe documentation but really the methods DO vary).
[03:14] <xtknight> Weems: alright.  now change the mount points accordingly
[03:14] <tom47> ssmasud i thought you were having problems with finding build-essential ..... is that so?
[03:14] <Weems> ok
[03:15] <walsh> ok  on my bros computer because the livecd froze and its apiece of crap
[03:15] <walsh> i need help xtknight
[03:15] <timo> xtknight: me i can get him to port forward 22 because thats were ssh connects
[03:15] <xtknight> walsh: hmm
[03:16] <xtknight> walsh: well, then just boot normally. download software called 'testdisk' through apt-get.  then run it with 'sudo testdisk'  that will help you recover stuff
[03:16] <walsh> xtknight: im on the verge of suicide, that was nearly 70 gigabytes of music.
[03:16] <cmweb> I have lost my password to my account (admin) on the system, i can access the root account. Is their any way of recovering the pass? Their are no other admin accounts on it.
[03:16] <xtknight> walsh: what type of file system was it?
[03:16] <bokey> timo, apologies. did you get it right
[03:16] <bokey> timo, sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[03:16] <blanky> cmweb: recovery console thing
[03:16] <walsh> xtknight: ntfs
[03:16] <blanky> !recovery | cmweb
[03:16] <ubotu> cmweb: To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system"
[03:16] <timo> bokey: no
[03:16] <ssmasud> tom47...actually the main problem is....I need to install NS2...I think that I definitely need gcc before it which is not functional...when I type "sudo apt-cache search gcc" it says that gcc-4.0-base is installed but when I type gcc on the prompt to check it...it says no such command...somebody told me to update build essential..is that the solution??...
[03:16] <xtknight> walsh: testdisk should be able to recover it, giv eit a try
[03:16] <blanky> cmweb: no wait
[03:16] <timo> bokey:thats done
[03:16] <walsh> xtknight: if this works, i will love you eternally
[03:17] <bokey> timo, so what's the issue now ?
[03:17] <Ioosef> erm... hello
[03:17] <blanky> cmweb: you know when you start up, in grub, there should be some type of recovery shell or something
[03:17] <cmweb> I did not recieve a alternative disk
[03:17] <blanky> cmweb: I meant 'ignore that' when I said 'no wait'
[03:17] <xtknight> walsh: should.  theres always other ways like some windows software (paid) can do it.  testdisk has saved my rear end like fiev times
[03:17] <cmweb> ok, i have that what do i do in it, as in steps
[03:17] <tom47> ssmasud i do not know but make sure you have the hyphen in there when you try
[03:17] <timo> bokey: port 22: Connection timed out
[03:17] <xtknight> walsh: though one time i had to download the latest version of it, the version in apt-get didnt do it.
[03:17] <theflyingfool> wow the real Xchat is nicer then the gnome one
[03:18] <Xtreem> theflyingfool, haha totally
[03:18] <cmweb> blanky, i have that but how do i do it?
[03:18] <bokey> timo, ok. open up your modem/router and set a port forwarding rule to allow that.
[03:18] <timo> bokey: mabe i can ssh into yours to see if the problem is on his pc setup
[03:18] <ssmasud> ok....thanks...
[03:18] <ktiche> cmweb: jsut do passwd <user> to change your user password if you can get int the single user mode
[03:18] <theflyingfool> this is probably a stupid question but how do i copy stuff via terminal
[03:19] <blanky> cmweb: waht ktiche said, 'passwd <yourusername>'
[03:19] <xtknight> and just for reference, "Recovery Mode" is synonymous with "single user" mode with Ubuntu
[03:19] <bokey> timo, nice try. i don't allow shell access to my machine.
[03:19] <bokey> timo, :)
[03:19] <SmAcKaSs> anyone kno how to install from a text-based approach? v6.10
[03:19] <cmweb> ktiche, can i use the root account? its the only one that has some admin
[03:19] <tom47> theflyingfool: define "stuff"
[03:19] <timo> bokey:your so suspicious of me
[03:19] <walsh> xtknight: i instaled it, where is it now
[03:19] <blanky> !root | cmweb
[03:19] <ubotu> cmweb: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:19] <ssmasud> can anybody guide me how to make gcc running when it says that I have gcc-4.0-base installed??....when i type gcc on the prompt it says no such command??...any NS2 experts over here....i need to install NS2 before which I need gcc running
[03:19] <xtknight> walsh: type `sudo testdisk`
[03:19] <ktiche> cmweb: you have to use root in single user mode single
[03:19] <theflyingfool> tom47, a set of folders from my external hdd to my homefolder
[03:19] <blanky> cmweb: just use the single user mode we were talking about, and use 'passwd <username>' to change your password
[03:20] <ktiche> blanky, think cmweb was asking if he should be root while in single user mode
[03:20] <timo> so why dose port scan not work
[03:20] <xtknight> ssmasud: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:20] <bokey> timo, what's his ip address ?
[03:20] <cmweb> singleuser Mode?
[03:20] <walsh> xtknight: k im seardching for lost partitions, WISH ME LUCK EH?
[03:20] <cmweb> oh
[03:20] <tom47> theflyingfool: use cp
[03:20] <Vandalay> gl
[03:20] <xtknight> walsh: erm yep.  chances are pretty good itll all still be there
[03:20] <ssmasud> xtknight......I tried that but it says build essential not found
[03:20] <ktiche> cmweb, ubuntu calls it rescue mode
[03:20] <timo> bokey:join me in #timo-helps
[03:21] <xtknight> ssmasud: what version of ubuntu?
[03:21] <cmweb> *duh*
[03:21] <walsh> xtknight: even if it says its not there and only counts a certain amount of gb?
[03:21] <cmweb> ok im going to test it
[03:21] <bokey> timo, yeah
[03:21] <cmweb> Thanks
[03:21] <timo> i mean #timo-helpss
[03:21] <xtknight> walsh: you only deleted like 10 bytes of your hard disk.
[03:21] <blanky> ssmasud: make sure you type sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:21] <timo> bokey: timo-helpss
[03:21] <xtknight> walsh: testdisk just needs to reconstruct those 10 bytes so it can read all the data.  that datas still all there probably
[03:21] <walsh> xtknight: then why does it show ltos of gb missing
[03:21] <blanky> ssmasud: make sure you type ALL of that, don't forget the 'install'
[03:21] <xtknight> walsh: what happened, precisely?
[03:22] <ssmasud> xtknight..blanky..6.0.6...kernel....2.6.15-23....i am not updating it because my wifi stops functioning....
[03:22] <xtknight> walsh: you just flat-out deleted a partition right?  with what software?  it was not formatted by accident in any way, correct?  just 'deleted'?
[03:22] <bokey> timo, just register with freenode.
[03:22] <ssmasud> blanky...yes i did that....but no use
[03:22] <walsh> xtknight: yes
[03:22] <theflyingfool> i have a prog that says not fully installed or removed, how to i fix it
[03:22] <xtknight> walsh: then only the partition table entry is missing.  chances of recovery are 99%+
[03:22] <theflyingfool> i did sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get update
[03:22] <timo> bokey:yeh i will tomorrow :)
[03:22] <walsh> xtknight: frigign linux switched around my partition names, so when i deleted C it actually deleted wat was always H
[03:22] <theflyingfool> reverse taht
[03:22] <bokey> timo, "/msg nickserv register timo <timo's_password>"
[03:23] <theflyingfool> that*

[03:23] <walsh> xtknight: it says no partition found...
[03:23] <walsh> xtknight: ugh ill just have to play with this program i guess.
[03:23] <xtknight> walsh: which function did you use
[03:23] <tom47> ssmasud copy and past teh next line to yr termial and see if it works or not
[03:23] <walsh> xtknight: analyse
[03:24] <xtknight> walsh: just a minute
[03:24] <tom47> ssmasud sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:24] <xtknight> walsh: are you sure you selected the right disk?
[03:24] <walsh> xtknight: yeah sdb
[03:24] <SmAcKaSs> is there an alternate disk for install besides the live one?
[03:24] <ssmasud> tom47..yes i did this...
[03:24] <ssmasud> xtknight??
[03:25] <tom47> ssmasud its just you sometimes are typing that hphen and sometimes not ;-)
[03:25] <xtknight> walsh: you chose Intel style partition?
[03:25] <walsh> xtknight: yues
[03:25] <SmAcKaSs> cause i tried the one suggested to me last night, in the other download options section... but it is actually the same download.
[03:25] <walsh> xtknight: there are two parts cylinders or watever it can analyse
[03:25] <ssmasud> tom47 :)
[03:25] <xtknight> walsh: maybe try downloading the latest version of testdisk then.  latest one was only one that worked for me.
[03:25] <xtknight> ssmasud: no idea.  why wouldn't build-essential exist?
[03:25] <xtknight> ssmasud: it doesnt make any sense.  could you post the exact error?
[03:26] <ssmasud> xtknight....it says no such package....
[03:26] <walsh> xtknight: now it says add a partition, load a partition, or enter
[03:26] <walsh> xtknight: i do have latest verison
[03:26] <SzArAk> i'm looking for a nice way to save window layout (splitted window) and fold's in gvim. does anybody know a good way to do that?

[03:27] <walsh> xtknight: i used synaptic
[03:27] <cmweb> Thanks you guys im back in linux now!
[03:27] <xtknight> walsh: we need to remove the synaptic one.  it is old
[03:27] <ssmasud> xtknight...do i have to update build-essential for gcc???...ok...then letme logon to ubuntu...and i will paste it....how can I be online from ubuntu..because I have no IRC there??
[03:27] <walsh> xtknight: ok h/o
[03:27] <xtknight> ssmasud: wait a minute
[03:27] <xtknight> ssmasud: i didn't know you didn't have net.  well that is a problem

[03:30] <timo> bokey:

[03:31] <MusKuS> Hi
[03:31] <eternalswd> is ubuntu going by different version numbers for coreutils than gnu, otherwise, why is there such a gap even on edgy?
[03:31] <Eldrani> How do you format a disk that's all frozen up?
[03:31] <MusKuS> Im using ubuntu since 5.04
[03:31] <Alakazamz0r>  is there a way to view whats going on on /dev/tty1 over ssh?
[03:31] <andre> hey guys
[03:31] <MusKuS> And since 6.06 i bought a digital camera
[03:31] <bokey> timo, see #timo-helpss
[03:31] <_`XeOn_> !ssh
[03:31] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[03:31] <MusKuS> and i was happy using it with f-spot
[03:31] <computer13137> Hey
[03:32] <MusKuS> It can download the photos from the camera
[03:32] <corevette> when i try to install ubuntu....it freezes during the logo loading screen
[03:32] <walsh> XTKNIGHT: its not working
[03:32] <xtknight> walsh: why not?
[03:32] <computer13137> I'm having a Ubuntu problem.  Please don't ask me not to ask to ask... I'm typing. :P
[03:32] <MusKuS> but with the version 6.10
[03:32] <blanky> !enter | MusKuS
[03:32] <ubotu> MusKuS: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:33] <xtknight> walsh: you should have an extracted folder named "testdisk-6.5", correct?
[03:33] <mike_la> does anybody how can i do a recursive chmod of 777 to dirs only but do only a chmod of 666 to files?
[03:33] <computer13137> I have two NTFS hard drives, since I'm running XP and Ubuntu as a dual-boot.  I have been told I can't write to the NTFS partitions, and I'm OK with that... but, I can't access the drives outside of root.  I have my music on the /data partition, I want to play it in Ubuntu and Windows, but I can't access it under my user account.  I can't chown the files, since I can't write to the partition.  Is there a way I can login "as root" so I can play music, or
[03:33] <MusKuS> the f-spot says that it cannot hold the USB port for download the photos from the camera ...
[03:33] <walsh> xtknight: yes!
[03:33] <corevette> when i try to install ubuntu....it freezes during the logo loading screen
[03:33] <xtknight> walsh: go into that directory from the terminal
[03:34] <eternalswd> mike_la, maybe write a script?
[03:34] <computer13137> Corvette: You don't happen to have an nVidia gfx card, do you?
[03:34] <xtknight> walsh: cd testdisk-6.5/linux
[03:34] <eternalswd> mike_la, I can help you write one if you're not sure how
[03:34] <ktiche> computer13137, you can use umask so your user can access the filesystem
[03:34] <MusKuS> corevette: try disabling the ACPI in the bios
[03:34] <andre> hey guys, would anyone here have any VSFTPD experience that wouldn't mind helping a dude out?
[03:34] <computer13137> ktiche: Do you have a tutorial link or something or can you tell me how to use that?
[03:34] <walsh> xtknight: dude i can just extract it w/ the gui
[03:34] <xtknight> walsh: you need to execute this from the terminal
[03:34] <MusKuS> andre: go ahead
[03:35] <walsh> xtknight: that command probably doesnt work because trhe filename has a . in it
[03:35] <corevette> acpi? muskus
[03:35] <xtknight> walsh: the testdisk executable itself
[03:35] <mike_la> eternalswd: ok, got an idea?
[03:35] <walsh> xtknight: this isnt working
[03:35] <xtknight> walsh: go into testdisk-6.5/linux directory from the terminal.
[03:35] <MusKuS> corevette: check your BIOS
[03:35] <walsh> xtknight: how
[03:35] <SzArAk> corevette: try removing "quiet" from kernel parameters
[03:35] <Meheren> im installing ubuntu on a frionds computer and have ran into a problem. There Hard drive has 4 partitons on it. It has a fat16, ntfs, and a fat32 on it then he has anethr ntfs partiton...
[03:35] <corevette> what would it say muskus
[03:35] <SzArAk> corevette: to have more info
[03:35] <xtknight> walsh: where is the testdisk-6.5 folder?  on your desktop?
[03:35] <corevette> how szarak
[03:35] <Hirvinen> mike_la: Firstly, you probably don't really want to do chmod 777 to everything, but if you really want to, then use chmod -R for that and then use find <path> <expression> -type d -exec chmod <args> {} \;
[03:35] <SzArAk> corevette: in grub press e (afair)
[03:35] <ktiche> computer13137, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VolumePermissions
[03:35] <Meheren> how would i edit these partitons to install ubuntu?
[03:35] <SzArAk> corevette: and edit it
[03:35] <andre> Muskus,  I configured my vsftpd.conf file not to allow anonymous and to allow local users.  but none of my local users can login
[03:35] <walsh> xtknight: the folder and the tar.bz2 are both on the desktop yet
[03:35] <computer13137> ktiche: Thanks, I'll look at that now.
[03:36] <xtknight> walsh: cd ~/Desktop/testdisk-6.5/linux     just type that exactly in the terminal.
[03:36] <walsh> xtknight: ok
[03:36] <eternalswd> mike_la, we can take advantage of "find -type f" for files in a subtree and "find -type d" for dirs in a subtree.  get the list of both and apply the chmod per type
[03:36] <ktiche> !away|Kirk|AFK
[03:36] <ubotu> Kirk|AFK: Please don't use public away messages or change your nick to 'someone|away'.  We know you're away when you don't respond to messages. Also see !guidelines
[03:36] <xtknight> walsh: after that command, type "    sudo ./testdisk_static  "  this will start the new version of testdisk
[03:36] <corevette> szarak....ubuntu isn't installed yet
[03:36] <MusKuS> andre: did you disable anon logins ?
[03:36] <ssmasud> xtknight.....i am still recieving the same error

[03:37] <Meheren> im installing ubuntu on a frionds computer and have ran into a problem. There Hard drive has 4 partitons on it. It has a fat16, ntfs, and a fat32 on it then he has anethr ntfs partiton... how would i edit these partitons to install ubuntu?
[03:37] <SzArAk> corevette: oh .. i don't remeber what are kernel parameters in live cd ;/ sorry
[03:37] <Bac9> will anything aside from cryptoloop work in 2.4.33?
[03:37] <tom47> Meheren are all the partitions in use/
[03:38] <MusKuS> andre: enable it and try again
[03:38] <xtknight> ssmasud: do you have xchat now?
[03:38] <walsh> xtknight: and if it doesnt find any paritions now?
[03:38] <Meheren> not sure how to tell
[03:38] <mike_la> eternalswd: how do you express this in the if, then, else structure?
[03:38] <xtknight> walsh: then try the Advanced section
[03:38] <eternalswd> is there a site where we can look up the default configure lines for ubuntu packages?
[03:38] <andre> Muskus:  k sec
[03:38] <walsh> xtknight: there are 3 listings on the hard drive, and all the cylinders are exactly the same size wtf
[03:38] <Meheren> tom47, i know the middle ntfs is, as the partiton xp is installed on
[03:38] <Oly> I jsut got a error that says libslang2_2.0.5-1build2_i285.deb was corrupt
[03:38] <Oly> is that disk or systeM/
[03:38] <Oly> and wth do i do?
[03:38] <Jambon> has anyone had any trouble playing certain windows video 9 files? I try to play them but they end up really choppy.
[03:38] <SzArAk> Bac9: try truecrypt
[03:38] <tom47> Meheran the first question then is to determine if there is spare unused space somewhere on the hard disk or else get a second drive

[03:38] <ssmasud> i guess not...should it be here??..i mean should it come along with my ubuntu release??
[03:38] <Meheren> tom47, no
[03:39] <Bac9> SzArAk: I mean nativly supported by 2.4.33
[03:39] <walsh> xtknight: did you get what i sent you
[03:39] <xtknight> walsh: i really don't know.  you'll have to experiment with testdisk.  try "analyse" on every partition you see.  and "advanced, locate mft" after that
[03:39] <Meheren> tom47,woll ok there is but 16 megs of it... nothing practical for an installation
[03:39] <tom47> Meheren no what?
[03:39] <walsh> xtknight:ok
[03:39] <Oly>  I jsut got a error that says libslang2_2.0.5-1build2_i285.deb was corrupt  * what do i do?
[03:39] <Meheren> tom47, no spare unused space
[03:39] <Oly> do i just continue?
[03:39] <tom47> Meheran and all the partitions are in use in some way that prevents the space being used for an install
[03:40] <xtknight> Oly: you could try.  maybe the cd media is corrupted
[03:40] <Meheren> tom47, im not sure
[03:40] <Oly> ahh. again
[03:40] <Oly> wth
[03:40] <Meheren> tom47, how would i find out?
[03:40] <Oly> is it that easy for stuff to go corrupt on disk or something
[03:40] <Oly> jesus
[03:40] <Oly> kay sorry no need for blasfemy
[03:40] <xtknight> ssmasud: xchat needs to be installed from synaptic
[03:40] <Meheren> tom47, and heh, it meheren not meheran :p
[03:40] <tom47> Meheren i think you will need to become sure or else install a second hard disk and use that

[03:40] <Meheren> tom47, no problem
[03:41] <rellik> in xinerama, now do I change which monitor the toolbars appear on?
[03:41] <tom47> Meheren: boot into windows and see is a reasonable option
[03:41] <Meheren> tom47, can the live cd mount fat32 and fat16 partitions?
[03:41] <tom47> Meheren: yes
[03:41] <Meheren> tom47, how would i do that?
[03:41] <tom47> ok are you in the livecd now?
[03:42] <Meheren> tom47, no...
[03:42] <ssmasud> xtknight....what would that do good to me??....i typed "sudo apt-get install build-essential" it said...reading package list....building dependency....couldnt find package build-essential
[03:42] <Meheren> tom47, back at my house :p
[03:42] <eternalswd> mike_la, there would be no need for conditionals.  just two arrays, one containing the file list, the other the dir list.  then there would be one loop for each to do the chmod
[03:42] <Oly> can ubuntu be installed off a usb?

[03:42] <xtknight> ssmasud: i have no idea honestly.  type "sudo apt-get update" and then try it?
[03:42] <corevette> when i try to install ubuntu with the live cd, it freezes during the logo loading screen before i can even get to the desktop to install. any help?

[03:43] <xtknight> Oly: not sure.  i installed off a usb cdrom
[03:43] <andre> muscus:  yes but the user I'm trying to ftp into is not root
[03:43] <mike_la> eternalswd: how do i automate this? \
[03:43] <eternalswd> mike_la, you'd need to input the root of the subtree so that the script can cd to it.  the script will take care of the subtree and then either at the beginning or the end, chmod the root of the subtree
[03:43] <tom47> Meheren: i am unsure how to help you if you hev neither the pc nor a livecd running on it to answer yr questions .... its usually best to do as you speak so to speak lol
[03:43] <sparr> Oly: Base is for losers
[03:43] <mwalsh> xtknight: it listed my files!
[03:43] <Oly> what do u mean usb cdrom?
[03:43] <Oly> oo
[03:43] <Oly> nvm. I mean a usb stick
[03:43] <Meheren> tom47, ok
[03:43] <mwalsh> xtknight: but i cant acces them in linux can i mount the drive or wtv
[03:44] <xtknight> Oly: i dont know about that,possible somehow prolly
[03:44] <tom47> Meheren: yes you can explore it using "My Computer"
[03:44] <xtknight> mwalsh: so did it recover the partition?
[03:44] <corevette> when i try to install ubuntu with the live cd, it freezes during the logo loading screen before i can even get to the desktop to install. any help?
[03:44] <eternalswd> mike_la, give me a minute and I can write up a quick script to do it and put it up on pastebin.
[03:44] <Meheren> tom47, ok well the only partiton mounted is the ntfs
[03:44] <mwalsh> xtknight: i dont knoiw i cant see the data how do i see it on linux
[03:44] <xtknight> mwalsh: does it list the partition in gparted?
[03:44] <MusKuS> andre: please try "su - someotheruser"
[03:44] <Meheren> tom47, but that doesn't mean it is the only one in use correct?

[03:50] <mwalsh> xtknight: /dev/sdc1
[03:50] <aryan> the main problem is that i have 2 hard drives and one of them has xp and the other one ubuntu 6.10. When i go onto the grub menu i get no xp there, so i edited the menu so xp comes up, however when i try to start xp i just get starting ... and nothing after that, so what do i do
[03:51] <xtknight> mwalsh: and the exeternal HD is not visible in /media ?
[03:51] <rellik> in xinerama, now do I change which monitor the toolbars appear on?
[03:51] <corevette> i'd say a half hour ardchoille42
[03:51] <Meheren> tom47, all i got is a bootable firewire with gparted on it... nothing else

[03:51] <kitche> timo, think this will help you http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/08/14/1945249'
[03:51] <Vommy> Heh, cool.
[03:51] <xtknight> mwalsh: i guess you need to add it to fstab?
[03:51] <Vommy> Ubuntu running
[03:51] <mwalsh> xtknight: thats the odd thing, it is added
[03:52] <aryan> is anyone going to help me, i asked my question twice
[03:52] <Vommy> To I think i did something wrong, cant log in with root account and I dont have other accounts o___o
[03:52] <aryan> knight can you help me?
[03:52] <mwalsh> xtknight: and so is my othe drive, they jsut sporadically choose when to show up
[03:52] <xtknight> mwalsh: what's the path exactly?  /media/USBDISK?
[03:52] <tom47> meh my only concern is that you will want to make sure yr friend does not have stuff on those partitions that you will lose on him hats all
[03:52] <weather> i'm wondering how i clear the content of a log file (in this case /var/log/Xorg.0.log) ?
[03:52] <andre> Muskus:  hold on I was root
[03:52] <tom47> Meheren:
[03:52] <mwalsh> /media/Ext. HD but its under the fstab as external
[03:52] <kitche> timo, it seems to be screen -x
[03:52] <timo> kitche:it says error ,nothing to see here
[03:52] <andre> Muskus:  gimme a sec to check something out
[03:52] <Meheren> tom47, yes?
[03:52] <aryan> the main problem is that i have 2 hard drives and one of them has xp and the other one ubuntu 6.10. When i go onto the grub menu i get no xp there, so i edited the menu so xp comes up, however when i try to start xp i just get starting ... and nothing after that, so what do i do
[03:52] <timo> kitche: so he should just type screen -x
[03:53] <tom47> Meheren: my only concern is that you will want to make sure yr friend does not have stuff on those partitions that you will lose on him hats all
[03:53] <ssmasud> can anybody help me in getting GCC to work?
[03:53] <aryan> is anyone going to help me because i feel so ignored
[03:53] <xtknight> mwalsh: well.  "ext. hd" contains a space so it's tricky to add to fstab.  try this in the terminal and report the errors "sudo mount /media/Ext.\ HD"   (yes the backslash needs to be there in between ext hd)
[03:53] <Trifith> okay, so I'm a former Debian (Sid) user, looking to get back in the swing of things after a year off the net. Why should I use Ubuntu over the Debian system I know?
[03:53] <kitche> timo: well whoever starts screen the other person will be doing screen -x
[03:53] <mwalsh> xtknight: nothing happend lol
[03:53] <_`XeOn_> how to register win32 codecs?

[03:54] <tom47> Meheren: so you need to collect the necessary tools together in the one place
[03:54] <xtknight> ssmasud: sudo apt-get install gcc    what happens?
[03:54] <mwalsh> xtknight: nope, stilld oesnt work
[03:54] <mwalsh> xtknight: should i show u my fstab?
[03:54] <xtknight> mwalsh: yes, pastebin please
[03:55] <Trifith> anika: remove read permision for all other users # chmod 700 $foldername and nobody bit the owner can do anything with that folder
[03:55] <xtknight> aryan: how did you add XP to grub?
[03:55] <Meheren> tom47, anyways umm i know he doesn't have anything on it, my only concern is if i kill the partitons am i killing something that windows (the os) is using?
[03:55] <vittorio> looks like the ubuntu suxors did something right
[03:55] <ssmasud> xtknight, couldn't find package gcc
[03:55] <anika> Trifith: I want to password protect it from myself as well
[03:55] <xtknight> ssmasud: did your sources.list file get damaged?  does it still not work after 'sudo apt-get update'?
[03:55] <aryan> xtknight: do you want to talk here or privatley?
[03:55] <xtknight> aryan: here
[03:56] <ssmasud> xtknight.....it is commented,,,,
[03:56] <aryan> xtknight:the main problem is that i have 2 hard drives and one of them has xp and the other one ubuntu 6.10. When i go onto the grub menu i get no xp there, so i edited the menu so xp comes up, however when i try to start xp i just get starting ... and nothing after that, so what do i do
[03:56] <xtknight> ssmasud: post sources.list on pastebin please
[03:56] <theherbalizer> anyone know where theme files are stored once the theme is installed?
[03:56] <xtknight> aryan: yes, gotcha...so how did you go about adding XP to grub?
[03:56] <tom47> meheren it seems to me that if you cannot see the partitions when windows boots up then its unlikely its using them but that an opinion and the risk is all yours
[03:56] <ssmasud> ok...what is pastebin???....
[03:56] <mwalsh> xtknight: ok i tried the" sudo mount /media/Ext.\ HD" agin it says it cant find Ext. HD In the fstab
[03:56] <Meheren> theherbalizer, normally under ~/themes
[03:56] <xtknight> !pastebin | ssmasud

[03:56] <aryan> xtknight: basically xp was already on my hard drive, i got an empty hard drive, formatted it using linux, have a 600mb swap partition and then installed ubuntu on there
[03:56] <xtknight> mwalsh: fstab on pastebin please
[03:56] <the_under_taker> whats the way to access windows partions,
[03:56] <mwalsh> xtknight: http://pastebin.ca/327622
[03:56] <Trifith> anika: that's more dificult, I would suguest changing the owner to a non-login account.
[03:57] <Trifith> why are you wanting to do that anyway
[03:57] <timo> kitche:im sorry but im confused, what exactly dose he do ?
[03:57] <tom47> Meheren: and using gparted that you have there will tell you if the partitions are empty or not
[03:57] <xtknight> mwalsh: it is set for /media/external
[03:57] <aryan> xtknight: i did nothing on xp, in order to add xp to the list i edited the menu.lst file on grub, do you want me to tell you exactly how i edited it?
[03:57] <Meheren> tom47, ah, and the worst that can happen is i cill windows... and have to take all the data off of the partiotn booted under ubuntu correct?
[03:57] <mwalsh> xtknight: yes, i know
[03:57] <mwalsh> xtknight: but it hsows up in media as Ext. HD
[03:57] <xtknight> aryan: correct, menu.lst on pastebin please
[03:57] <Meheren> tom47, it says they are
[03:57] <aryan> xtknight: i hope that you can help me out because in a real doozy lol
[03:57] <tom47> Meheren: are what?
[03:57] <the_under_taker> how do i access windows partions
[03:57] <kitche> timo, ok when you log in type screen bash and it should start a bash prompt with screen, then he would jsut have to type screen -x to connect to your screen
[03:58] <aryan> xtknight: one sec i will past on here what i added ther
[03:58] <xtknight> aryan: the question is not whether or not i can, but whether i have enough energy too ;)

[03:58] <theherbalizer> Meheren: thanks! know where the icons are stored?
[03:58] <ssmasud> xtknight.....yes i have posted it on pastebin
[03:58] <xtknight> ssmasud: need the url
[03:58] <anika> Trifith: Just have some stuff that I'm doing I want to keep quiet until the right time
[03:58] <anika> It's a surprise :)
[03:58] <timo> kitche: i have ssh into a friends pc , i now want him to be able to see what im doing !
[03:58] <theherbalizer> Meheren: nm, i think i found it: ~/.themes
[03:58] <Meheren> theherbalizer, normally under ~/icons :p
[03:58] <the_under_taker> !fuse
[03:58] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse

[03:58] <timo> in a terminal
[03:58] <aryan> xtknight: how do i access pastebin?
[03:58] <theherbalizer> Meheren: yeah, got it. ^^
[03:58] <Meheren> tom47, are empty
[03:58] <theherbalizer> Meheren: thanks though, man
[03:59] <kitche> timo, yes you use screen, screen is a program
[03:59] <hayden> hi, im having some trouble my keyboard, im using a normal US keyboard, but when i try to use  these characters ` i have to push the appropriate button twice to get the character to appear, and if i hit a ` button then for example the e key it adds an accent , how do i disable this (as i only speak english)?
[03:59] <Meheren> theherbalizer, heh no problem... oh wait though...
[03:59] <xtknight> mwalsh: but what about the /media folder?  the /media folder it self.  there should be a /media/external folder even if it is not mounted.  it cannot be mounted unless the target ( / media/external) exists
[03:59] <kitche> !screen|timo
[03:59] <xtknight> !pastebin | aryan

[03:59] <Meheren> theherbalizer, it under ~/.themes and ~/.icons :p
[03:59] <Meheren> so they are hidden...
[03:59] <tom47> Meheren: ok in that case i would simply go ahead and reuse them but thats my advice to me yr mileage may vary
[03:59] <xtknight> ssmasud: how did everything get commented ?
[03:59] <theherbalizer> Meheren: excellent, you don't know how awesome you just made my machine
[03:59] <andre> Muskus:  ok I have done the following:  su - user1...  then pwd... the output is /home/user1
[03:59] <Trifith> well if you're the only one useing your account (and you should be) then I'm not sure why it would be nessicary to protect it from yourself.
[03:59] <aryan> !pastebin | aryan
[03:59] <Meheren> tom47, ok thanks for help
[04:00] <xtknight> ssmasud: you will need to uncomment the ubuntu repositories to get gcc
[04:00] <mwalsh> xtknight: the /media/external exists, but Ext. HD Is the real thing.
[04:00] <Meheren> theherbalizer, heh ok :p
[04:00] <xtknight> mwalsh: so there is nothing under either?
[04:00] <anika> Trifith: Other people in the place using the same computer
[04:00] <mwalsh> xtknight: no, the data shows up for Ext. HD.
[04:00] <zYe> i am trying to copy anime from a dvd to my hd
[04:00] <zYe> and it just locks up
[04:00] <Trifith> if you're worried that your system might at some future date be comprimised then use GPG to encrypt the folder.

[04:01] <d7thstring> can anyone help me with slab
[04:01] <anika> Trifith: How do I go about doing that?
[04:01] <Trifith> you'd have to check the gpg man pages I'm not terribly familiar with that
[04:01] <tom47> Meheren: and before i did anything i would back up the data my friend has in his windows areas
[04:01] <zYe> i have copie large iles from my cd-rom before
[04:01] <mwalsh> xtknight: no, i want Ext. HD to show up as external
[04:01] <ssmasud> xtknight....if I uncomment the whole file and run "sudo apt-get update"....it updates my kernel version and installs all updates....but after that...m wifi stops functioning....i am stuck
[04:01] <aryan> xtknight: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2827/
[04:01] <xtknight> zYe: is DMA enabled on the drive?
[04:01] <mwalsh> xtknight: but i dont know if its sdb1 or watever
[04:01] <xtknight> mwalsh: alright.  well you said it was sdc1 right?  ubuntu is automounting Ext Hd somehow
[04:01] <aryan> xtknight: let me know if i did it right lol, ive been an ms user for 10 years and decided to give linux a try, i love everything about it but i also need access to ms for some things =D
[04:01] <mwalsh> xtknight: how do i check wat it is
[04:02] <theherbalizer> another thing: anyone know if there's a way to add a rollup button to my titlebars, or does that require editing a theme?
[04:02] <Trifith> anika: the program is at http://www.gnupg.org/ and should be instalable with the ubuntu package manager.
[04:02] <zYe> xtknight, what is DMA
[04:02] <theherbalizer> !dma
[04:02] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. It makes hard disks & optical drives transfer data faster, and is almost always enabled in Ubuntu 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA

[04:05] <xtknight> zYe: how did you verify that dma was enabled?
[04:05] <ssmasud> xtknight......i need NS2.......I think i need gcc for it...i am pasting bin which shows the results of the NS2 installation crash...i also need gcc badly.....
[04:05] <ssmasud> xtknight....http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2829/
[04:05] <xtknight> mwalsh: oh.  ok type 'df -h' to list mounts
[04:05] <zYe> sudo hdparm /dev/hdc
[04:06] <xtknight> ssmasud: ns2 =  ?
[04:06] <aryan> xtknight: the xp partition is called sdb1 on that paste that i just sent you
[04:06] <eternalswd> mike_la, I finished it.  used an array instead of trying to figure out the pipes. http://pastebin.ca/327626
[04:06] <aryan> xtknight: did you get it ok? do you want me to paste you that link again?
[04:06] <xtknight> aryan: oh then it needs to be (hd1,1) not Hd0,0 on the chainloader thing
[04:06] <aleka> I am having trouble copying to a USB external drive (plug and play), which I have mounted as -t ntfs....I am getting an error "read only file system" tried both as root ans reg user
[04:06] <zYe> xtknight, i can watch it, but it will randomly crash, but if i try to copy the file it always just locks up the cd drive
[04:06] <aryan> xtknight: ok then i will give that a try and see if it works
[04:06] <mwalsh> xtknight: hmm my external istn listed there
[04:06] <aryan> xtknight: thanks alot dude
[04:06] <ssmasud> xtknight.....NS2...is Network Simulator...did u go through the pastebin??
[04:06] <xtknight> aryan: no problem
[04:06] <aryan> xtknight: ill go give that a try now
[04:06] <kitche> aleka, ntfs is readonly but cna be writtend to with !fuse or !ntfs-3g
[04:07] <ssmasud> xtknight....can u get my gcc work atleast...i will handle the rest
[04:07] <xtknight> ssmasud: gotcha...uhh one sec
[04:07] <ssmasud> xtknight....thanks man...:)
[04:07] <xtknight> zYe: hmm.so how did you verify that dma was enabled?
[04:07] <zYe> (10:05:46 PM) zYe: sudo hdparm /dev/hdc
[04:07] <aleka> kitche: I do use ntfs-3g for my internal drives.. but this one is a one time external drive and I don want to make an entry in fstab for it and reboot...
[04:07] <ZellSF> does changing gstreamer properties require a restart?
[04:07] <xtknight> zYe: hmm...im not sure.  any messages under dmesg?
[04:08] <kitche> aleka, you can still use ntfs-3g without adding the drive to fstab
[04:08] <zYe> xtknight, (10:05:46 PM) zYe: sudo hdparm /dev/hdc
[04:08] <mwalsh> xtknight: my drive isnt listed
[04:08] <zYe> no wait
[04:08] <Pici> ZellSF, possibly a restart of the app, but not of your computer
[04:08] <aleka> kitche: enlighten me please
[04:08] <zYe> xtknight,  using_dma    =  1 (on)
[04:08] <eternalswd> mike_la, example usage would be "this /path/to/subroot" where "this" is whatever you decide to call the script and the argument is the subtree you want to chmod
[04:08] <zYe> thats what it sai in terminal
[04:08] <ZellSF> I should be able to listen music while playing a game if both are using oss, correct?
[04:08] <factboy818181> sound suddenly doesn't work in Ubuntu, but the sound card is detected and the sound works in Windows...
[04:08] <aryan> xtknight: so the root setting should be 1.1 and not 0.0?
[04:08] <mike_la> eternalswd: lemme try
[04:09] <xtknight> ssmasud: i really apologize.  im confused beyond belief.  so you commented out the sources.list to prevent a kernel update correct?  but now you can't get gcc because those repositories are commented?  not sure that commenting sources.list is a good idea.  what wireless card is not working in the new kernel?
[04:09] <aryan> xtknight: so i seet the root setting to 1.1 rather than 0.0?
[04:09] <xtknight> mwalsh: what about under the 'mount' command ?  just type 'mount'
[04:09] <xtknight> aryan: for the XP entry yes
[04:09] <xtknight> aryan: that would be One comma One
[04:09] <theherbalizer> zell: depends, i have rythmbox and wow at the same time, and whichever starts first gets audio
[04:09] <aryan> xtknight: ok thanks going to give it a while now lol
[04:09] <xtknight> aryan: ok, good luck
[04:09] <ssmasud> xtknight.....i have Dell inspiron E1505...which has an Intel 3945abg wireless card....
[04:10] <mwalsh> xtknight: nope, no dice.
[04:10] <xtknight> zYe: ok.  do you see any messages under dmesg when it freezes?
[04:10] <factboy818181> oops, nvm, fixed it XD
[04:10] <eternalswd> mike_la, you could make the script more complex by reading in the desired chmod properties instead of hardcoding them.
[04:10] <theherbalizer> Zell: im pretty sure there is a fix out there, though, i remember it as being something like "oss through alsa" or something
[04:10] <SurfnKid> hmmm
[04:10] <zYe> xtknight, what is dmesg
[04:10] <kitche> aleka, mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/<dev> /media/<mountpoint> should mount it with read write permissions for root if you want user read/write use umask also with that moutn command
[04:10] <SurfnKid> how can I make a CD/ISO fit on a DVD
[04:10] <theherbalizer> !dmesg
[04:10] <xtknight> !dmesg | Zye
[04:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dmesg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:10] <ZellSF> wouldn't using two different sound programs not work either?
[04:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dmesg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:10] <corevette> http://googletesting.blogspot.com/
[04:10] <xtknight> wow we need a dmesg entry
[04:10] <aleka> kitche, just did tht.. lemme see if it works
[04:11] <xtknight> mwalsh: should be in there.  so "Ext. HD" is accessible under "Computer", correct?
[04:11] <theherbalizer> ZellSF: i'm honestly not sure. i haven't experimented with it too much.
[04:11] <xtknight> mwalsh: and all the files are there?
[04:11] <xtknight> ssmasud: do you know what kernel module that card uses?  sure it doesnt work with the new kernel?
[04:11] <YoshiG3> I live near St.Louis, and there is no time zone for there.
[04:11] <mwalsh> xtknight: not under computer,but under media, and the files arent there anymore
[04:11] <theherbalizer> anyone know anything or have had any luck with using usb-bluetooth connectors to access mobile phones ?
[04:11] <YoshiG3> So...how do I get my time correct? lol
[04:11] <xtknight> YoshiG3: um eastern?
[04:11] <YoshiG3> nope, central
[04:11] <xtknight> YoshiG3: setting it to central doesnt work then?
[04:11] <ssmasud> xtknight...i have 2.6.15-23...it upgrades to 2.6.17-23...and my wifi stops functioning......
[04:11] <zYe> so what is dmesg
[04:11] <YoshiG3> there is no central
[04:11] <YoshiG3> just cities
[04:12] <xtknight> mwalsh: confused.  so are the files on the HD accessible ANYWHERE?
[04:12] <YoshiG3> indiana, chicago...nothing near STL
[04:12] <mwalsh> xtknight: not anymore.
[04:12] <xtknight> mwalsh: what hapepns if you unplug and plug in the drive now?
[04:12] <aryan> xtknight: hey man i tried it and i get "error invalid device requested"
[04:12] <aleka> kitche: sucesss... on the other hand.. my regular external harddrive [/dev/sdb1]  which I had mounted under /media/sdb1 with an entry in fstab is showing up empty
[04:12] <xtknight> aryan: hmm.  im afraid i meant (hd1,0)
[04:12] <xtknight> aryan: hd1,0 would be /dev/sdb1, sorry
[04:13] <mwalsh> xtknight: nothing
[04:13] <xtknight> silly grub
[04:13] <j1p> Does anyone here play CS 1.6 under wine, I am having trouble getting the sound to work
[04:13] <aryan> xtknight: no worries ill go give that a whirl
[04:13] <xtknight> mwalsh: i have no idea dude.
[04:13] <xtknight> mwalsh: i dont know what's going on
[04:13] <kitche> aleka, type mount to see what is mounted your /dev/sdb1 might have gotten umounted somehow
[04:13] <hayden> hi, Im having problems with my keyboard, when I push ` keys I have to much them twice for the characters to show, when I push it once tehn for example the e key it turns out , how do i disable this (as i only speak english)
[04:13] <mwalsh> xtknight: um ok
[04:13] <xtknight> mwalsh: the external HD used to work?  it works sometimes?  it stops working all of a sudden?
[04:13] <YoshiG3> xtknight: I still can't get it to my time. I change the time, and it doesn't save.
[04:14] <zYe> xtknight, i did dmesg, and it has a page full of errors
[04:14] <xtknight> YoshiG3: where are you ?  (well i knwo you live in STL, but what dialog are you at)?
[04:14] <iNToIT> investigating
[04:14] <mwalsh> xtknight: yeah man idk what happened haha
[04:14] <ssmasud> xtknight...i have 2.6.15-23...it upgrades to 2.6.17-23...and my wifi stops functioning......
[04:14] <xtknight> zYe: normal, but umm.  somehow we need to get those errors when the freezes occur, then it will tell us something
[04:14] <xtknight> ssmasud: gotcha...do you know the kernel module name for your card?
[04:15] <ssmasud> xtknight....how can i get to know that??
[04:15] <D7> is there a sweet method for organizing an mp3 collection in ubuntu?
[04:15] <YoshiG3> xtknight: Time settings
[04:15] <xtknight> D7: try rythymbox
[04:15] <xtknight> ryhthm how do you spell that word
[04:15] <zYe> xtknight, does this error mean the dvd is bad? [17180888.196000]  end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 8646848
[04:15] <Andymeows> hi, does anyone know how to associate my newly purchased domain name with my ubuntu server?
[04:15] <xtknight> rhythmbox i mean
[04:15] <D7> rhythm box is good, huh?
[04:15] <xtknight> decent
[04:15] <kitche> Andymeows, set up bind or use dns forwarding
[04:15] <zYe> xtknight, because i burnt it with a sony dvd player, and the cds wernt sony dvds
[04:16] <YoshiG3> xtknight: I'm at the time settings dialog
[04:16] <corevette> when i try to start ubuntu in the live cd, it gets frozen on the loading process with the logo
[04:16] <xtknight> ssmasud: umm.... "sudo lshw | grep network -A20" and pastebin it please.
[04:16] <_`XeOn_> wich win32 codecs are working for ubuntu] ?
[04:17] <xtknight> YoshiG3: right click on the clock, adjust date&time?
[04:17] <xtknight> zYe: it could be a drive problem, controller problem, or disc issue.
[04:17] <xtknight> zYe: probably a bad cd
[04:17] <YoshiG3> xtknight: yes, that one
[04:17] <aleka> kitche: just type mount after changing directory to /media/sdb1?
[04:17] <ablyss> Andymeows: if you have static ip you can reconfigure the domain to point to your ip
[04:17] <xtknight> YoshiG3: so what happens if you choose another city in misourri ?
[04:17] <kitche> aleka, just mount you don't have to change directory
[04:17] <corevette> when i try to start ubuntu in the live cd, it gets frozen on the loading process with the logo. any help?
[04:17] <YoshiG3> xtknight: there is no other city.
[04:18] <YoshiG3> xtknight: closest is denver
[04:18] <YoshiG3> xtknight: to the west, at least
[04:18] <wastrel> hi
[04:18] <xtknight> YoshiG3: well north dakota, north dakota is Central time zone right?
[04:18] <aleka> kitche: /dev/sdb1 on /mnt type fuse (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other)
[04:18] <hayden> hi, Im having problems with my keyboard, when I push ` keys I have to much them twice for the characters to show, when I push it once tehn for example the e key it turns out , how do i disable this (as i only speak english)
[04:18] <aleka> NO IDEA WHY IT WAS MOUNTED AS NOATIME
[04:18] <Andymeows> I got my domain from godaddy.com and I have it set up to forward to my ip for now. Is bind a program, kitche?
[04:18] <kitche> aleka, it's mounted to /mnt not /media/sdb1
[04:19] <YoshiG3> xtknight: I selected north dakota, but, it's still showing 3:18 pm.
[04:19] <kitche> Andymeows, bind is what most dns servers run on
[04:19] <YoshiG3> xtknight: it's 9:18
[04:19] <adhoc> is there a security channel for ubuntu?
[04:19] <aryan> xtknight: dude it just says "starting up ..." and thats it
[04:19] <YoshiG3> HAH
[04:19] <xtknight> YoshiG3: maybe you need to disable UCT (UMT? cant remember) or GMT,
[04:19] <ssmasud> xtknight, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2830/
[04:19] <adhoc> for patches & bug fixes?
[04:19] <aryan> xtknight: i waited and waited yet there was nothing there
[04:19] <xtknight> !timezone
[04:19] <YoshiG3> xtknight: it was as simple as hitting enter.
[04:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about timezone - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:19] <YoshiG3> wow..lol
[04:19] <xtknight> YoshiG3: huh? hehe
[04:19] <YoshiG3> controls for stupids, make it harder for smarts
[04:19] <YoshiG3> lol
[04:19] <xtknight> aryan: thats odd
[04:20] <xtknight> ahah
[04:20] <bokey> adhoc, #ubuntu-devel
[04:20] <adhoc> bokey: thanks =)
[04:20] <aryan> xtknight: you bet, i havent touched my windows partition so surely i could not have stuffed any of that up
[04:20] <bokey> adhoc, np.
[04:20] <aleka> kitche: sorry for the confusion.. what I had wanted to mount was sda1 not sdb1..
[04:20] <Shizuku> Hey guys, I have a quick question -- I have a box with no video card, and no integrated video output, I'm looking for a way to install either 1. Over the network, SSH etc, or 2. From CD, without the need for a monitor, is there any way for me to do this?
[04:20] <xtknight> ssmasud: driver=ipw3945   for your card.  well umm...yeah i know that's not saying much.  somehow the new kernel's ipw3945 is messed ?  more than likely it's just a configuration problem
[04:20] <aryan> xtknight: when i try and boot of this other hard drive first it just says failed disk, you know when i try and use only my windows hard drive as a primary boot device
[04:20] <aleka> my entry for it in fstab is >> /dev/sda1   		/media/sda1   	ext3   iocharset=utf8,umask=000   0   0
[04:21] <kitche> aleka, ok mount -a should mount it and your umask is wrong also
[04:21] <aryan> xtknight: which is why its so weird, maybe the bios settings are stuffed? i doubt it is that but what can i do to fix all of this up?
[04:21] <riotkittie> uh. stupid question time. can you "install" software when running off the live disc ?
[04:21] <xtknight> riotkittie: yes
[04:21] <riotkittie> yay!
[04:21] <aryan> riotkittie:yes
[04:21] <xtknight> it is put on the shared memory mount
[04:21] <xtknight> just as any saved files
[04:21] <aleka> kitche: what would be the correct umask? and Do I really need a umask in my fstab entry?
[04:22] <MC237> hhello...
[04:22] <aryan> xtknight: any idea on my prob????????
[04:22] <kitche> riotkittie, that's how some people install certain software before they install the real system
[04:22] <xtknight> aryan: certain windows is on /dev/sdb1?
[04:22] <kitche> aleka, not really but it's ubuntu way since root is locked
[04:22] <MC237> is there a linux that can run on 128mb of ram and 10GB HDD?
[04:22] <xtknight> aryan: and you put hd1,0 for the root in the chainloader xp entry right?
[04:22] <aryan> xtknight: let me double check
[04:22] <corevette> when i try to start ubuntu in the live cd, it gets frozen on the loading process with the logo. any help?
[04:22] <wolfwalker> Got a bit of a question for y'all. I have a Winblows computer, but I want to put an Ubuntu as dual-boot. I can't get the critical files where I want them, but someone said when I resize the partition those critical files will be moved instead of written over. Is this true?
[04:22] <xtknight> MC237: Xubuntu might not be too bad
[04:22] <timo> kitche:do you know any thing about mythtv
[04:22] <kitche> MC237, slackware
[04:23] <wolfwalker> |corevette:| How much ram do you have?
[04:23] <MC237> i got a 6-9 year old laptop
[04:23] <corevette> wolfwalker 1.5 gigs
[04:23] <MC237> and XP is crapping out on that thing
[04:23] <kitche> MC237, most linuxes cna run on that ram just might be lightweight
[04:23] <xtknight> aryan: might need to do fixboot from xp recovery disc.  somehow boot sector for xp got damaged, more than liekly
[04:23] <xtknight> aryan: NOT fixmbr though, just fixboot
[04:23] <kitche> timo, nope nver played with mythtv yet
[04:23] <zYe> xtknight, i no longer think it is the dvd, because it works on a windows system, and it freezes at random points
[04:23] <wolfwalker> That should be enough. Don't know why it's freezing then.
[04:23] <tom47> MC237 i would try puppylinux
[04:23] <ssmasud> xtknight......how can I just update gcc without updating the kernel??
[04:23] <xtknight> zYe: freezes on the windwos system also?
[04:23] <aryan> xtknight: the location of sdb 1 is /media
[04:24] <aleka> kitche: how can i correct the umask?
[04:24] <corevette> any ideas wolfwalker
[04:24] <zYe> xtknight, no it works on windows, but i have all the codecs and VLC media player on ubuntu
[04:24] <aryan> xtknight: yes i did have it as 1,0 under the root menu in the xp section of menu.lst at the grub directory
[04:24] <xtknight> ssmasud: enable the repositories.  avoid update requests.  then type 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'   honestly i dont know how to refuse an update.
[04:24] <kitche> aleka, should be umask=0222 at least on most systems
[04:24] <MC237> thx
[04:24] <zYe> xtknight, it is some kind of hdc issue
[04:24] <xtknight> ssmasud: i dont know how to block updates i mean.  but just dont press yes when it asks you, we can deal with that later maybe
[04:24] <wolfwalker> Nope. I had that problem, but it was because I had very little ram and a cluttered hard drive, so Ubuntu couldn't mount to use swap space instead of the missing ram.
[04:24] <frogzoo> aleka: global umask is in /etc/profile
[04:25] <wolfwalker> Whoops!
[04:25] <aryan> xtknight: so what do you think it is? i can see all my windows files fine under linux
[04:25] <wolfwalker> |corevette:| Nope. I had that problem, but it was because I had very little ram and a cluttered hard drive, so Ubuntu couldn't mount to use swap space instead of the missing ram.
[04:25] <MC237> do i still have to make a CD for it?
[04:25] <xtknight> aryan: hm.  so system32 exists on sdb1?
[04:25] <rellik> in xinerama, how do I change which monitor login screen appears on?
[04:25] <MC237> or floppy can work?
[04:25] <zYe> AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[04:25] <aryan> xtknight: let me check
[04:25] <ssmasud> xtknight.....u mean that i uncomment the repos and then install the update....when does it ask me YES/NO????
[04:25] <xtknight> zYe: not sure.  what type of PC do you have?  what brand of dvd burner?
[04:26] <xtknight> zYe: dvd drive i mean, whatever applicable
[04:26] <aryan> xtknight: yep system32 exists
[04:26] <aleka> kitche: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2831/ please
[04:26] <masjito> how to install firefox 2.0.0.1 in dapper?
[04:26] <tom47> MC237: a cd is more convenient
[04:26] <aryan> xtknight: i am in the system32  directory right now
[04:26] <xtknight> ssmasud: uncomment the repositories.  save sources.list.  immediately goto terminal type 'sudo apt-get update'  and then type 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'  apt-get update will NOT update your kernel, it adds repos.  apt-get 'upGRADE' does kernel updates , dont do apt-get upgrade, refuse gnome requests to update your ubuntu
[04:26] <kitche> masjito, grab it from their website it might be in backports also
[04:26] <arsentop> !firefox | masjito

[04:26] <cmweb> How do i install ttf fonts
[04:27] <xtknight> aryan: and a NTLDR file exists on sdb1?
[04:27] <wolfwalker> I have a Winblows computer, but I want to put an Ubuntu as dual-boot. I can't get the critical files compacted to one side of the disk, but someone said when I resize the partition those critical files will be moved instead of written over. Is this true?
[04:27] <xtknight> !truetype | cmweb

[04:28] <xtknight> stoned: gigabyte ds3 though
[04:28] <aleka> frogzoo:  thanks
[04:28] <zYe> xtknight, well hdc is the cdrom correct
[04:28] <stoned> xtknight, except for solid state capacitors, its the same thing.
[04:28] <xtknight> stoned: my marvell is supported by 2.6.19.  i installed off a usb cdrom drive due to jmicron problems
[04:28] <aleka> kitche: will do :) thanks for bearing with me
[04:28] <xtknight> stoned: correct
[04:28] <aryan> xtknight: no NTLDR, they all show up as sqm files with a couple of folders up top such as windows, documents and settings, programme files etc...
[04:28] <xtknight> zYe: um probably?
[04:28] <zYe> lol
[04:28] <zYe> damnit
[04:29] <xtknight> zYe: so this happens when COPYING or PLAYING the files?
[04:29] <zYe> xtknight, both
[04:29] <stoned> xtknight, debian is what I use.  It doesn't contain the 2.6.19 kernel.  Does ubuntu?
[04:29] <tonyyarusso> 4
[04:29] <xtknight> aryan: may need to do fixboot then from the xp recovery console (remember, not fixmbr, but fixboot)
[04:29] <Bac9> will anything aside from cryptoloop work in 2.4.33?
[04:29] <xtknight> stoned: there are custom debian builds compiled with 2.6.19 kernel by a man named kmuto i believe
[04:29] <aryan> xtknight: is there anyway to do that without the windows xp cd?
[04:29] <xtknight> stoned: thats what i used to get myself off the ground
[04:30] <stoned> xtknight, yes, but I've read in the comments that people were unable to get it working.
[04:30] <aryan> xtknight: because i am pretty sure mines torn into shredds thanks to my god lol
[04:30] <xtknight> stoned: and then , well it was painful but i have the .6.19 kernel in ubuntu after lots of manual file copying
[04:30] <wolfwalker> I have a Winblows computer, but I want to put an Ubuntu as dual-boot. I can't get the critical files compacted to one side of the disk, but someone said when I resize the partition those critical files will be moved instead of written over. Is this true?
[04:30] <ardchoille42> stoned, The current Ubuntu Dapper kernel is 2.6.15
[04:30] <stoned> what about experimental?
[04:30] <stoned> or whatever the ubuntu equivalent is
[04:30] <kitche> wolfwalker, yes if that partition isn't full
[04:30] <xtknight> aryan: lol sorry, i dont know
[04:30] <tonyyarusso> stoned: Don't use development Ubuntu unless you know what you're doing.
[04:30] <rellik> in gdm, how do I tell it which xinerama screen is the primary screen? (for the login screen and toolbars, etc)
[04:30] <aryan> xtknight: ok i will try and do a fixboot
[04:30] <xtknight> aryan: somehow the XP boot loader is missing, hopefully that gives you some pointers
[04:31] <stoned> tonyyarusso, i KNOW what I'm doing
[04:31] <wolfwalker> What if the partition is full, does the data that is left over get overwritten?
[04:31] <cmweb> wtf its downloading every dam ttf font
[04:31] <zYe> relik from t1?
[04:31] <aryan> xtknight: wait i was supposed to set up a boot loader for xp too?
[04:31] <tonyyarusso> stoned: Then /j #ubuntu+1 for devel version talk :)
[04:31] <hayden> hi, Im having problems with my keyboard, when I push ` keys I have to much them twice for the characters to show, when I push it once tehn for example the e key it turns out , how do i disable this (as i only speak english)
[04:31] <aryan> xtknight: i didnt touch xp at all, did i need to edit anything on xp?
[04:31] <stoned> tonyyarusso, ok
[04:31] <aryan> xtknight: did i install it all wrong then if i needed to edit files under xp like ntdlr because i didnt touch xp what so ever
[04:31] <xtknight> aryan: well technically theres all sorts of boot this boot that, blah its all so complicated...look, grub is a boot loader on the MBR now which redirects to a stage2 on linux's boot sector or something lik ethat, but XP's boot SECTOR is missing, i hope you understand ;)
[04:32] <frogzoo> hayden: you have the 'dead keys' option enabled
[04:32] <stoned> xtknight, what problems did you run into with kmuto's image.
[04:32] <slyfox> Please help I am a noob, Just started my Kubuntu and when it was booting I saw this message: Activating SWAP ... Checking Root File System.... something...something..../sda2/ has been mounted 30 times without being checked ...                      What does all this mean?
[04:32] <ssmasud> xtnight......its not getting build essential still
[04:32] <aryan> xtknight: also grub didnt give me any options to select xp as another os
[04:32] <xtknight> aryan: i dont know.  xp should be fine, but that's not always the case i guess.  somehow the boot sector on that partiion was damaged.  did you install grub normally (like to the mbr not the boot sector)?
[04:32] <hayden> frogzoo, how do I disable that option?
[04:32] <xtknight> stoned: none
[04:32] <frogzoo> hayden: install the US keyboard layout
[04:32] <stoned> xtknight, you said it was a pain
[04:33] <xtknight> stoned: no no
[04:33] <xtknight> stoned: getting ubuntu edgy on here was a pain
[04:33] <elijah> somerville
[04:33] <xtknight> stoned: his debian custom images worked, but i want ubutntu
[04:33] <riotkittiee> doh. i deleted the edgy iso :\
[04:33] <aryan> xtknight: i think i get what you mean, i never installed grub, well i never realiised i did. I just followed the ubuntu 6.10 prompts
[04:33] <stoned> xtknight, but if I don't want ubuntu then it will be fine?
[04:33] <xtknight> stoned: his images should work yes
[04:33] <tom47> slyfox its a bit like the disk checking that windows does
[04:33] <stoned> ok
[04:33] <xtknight> stoned: http://kmuto.jp/debian/d-i/
[04:33] <slyfox> tom47: So this is normal and automatic ?
[04:33] <xtknight> stoned: i used 1023 i think
[04:34] <kitche> slyfox, swap is like a pagefile and linux can do a diskcheck with a program called fsck that's all that says nothing to worry about you can learn more if you grab a linux book on how it works and such
[04:34] <tom47> slyfox normal and automatic yes
[04:34] <xtknight> aryan: wll its prolly on the MBR, meaning the boot sector should not have been touched.  somehow it was and fixboot is needed to fix that
[04:34] <stoned> xtknight, what cpu do you have on tht motherboard?
[04:34] <xtknight> stoned: intel core 2 duo e6300
[04:34] <anika> is there a beta 6 deb for Gaim?
[04:34] <aryan> xtknight:so all i need to do is run fixboot and everything should be ok?
[04:34] <slyfox> One question - for 2 gigs of RAM, how big should the swap be ?
[04:34] <elijah> can i also install kubuntu if ubuntu is still installed? dual boot.
[04:34] <aryan> !slyfox
[04:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about slyfox - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:35] <xtknight> aryan: i THINK so.  ive got to go soon, maybe you can catch me later but i wont be here after about 10 mins or so
[04:35] <caminomaster> hi
[04:35] <Blinocac200sx> ok, so I have a problem with courier-authdaemon
[04:35] <Blinocac200sx> and I want to forcably remove it
[04:35] <slyfox> !swap
[04:35] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[04:35] <shatrat> anika: beta 3.1 is in repositories, I havent seen beta 6
[04:35] <aryan> xtknight: ill give it a try tomorrow or something, one more q, how do i get my tv tuner working on ubuntu?
[04:35] <xtknight> Blinocac200sx: sudo dpkg --purge courier-authdaemon
[04:35] <caminomaster> i try to rip a CD, and get "error while encoding track 1"
[04:35] <caminomaster> to mp3
[04:35] <xtknight> aryan: not sure.  not all tv tuners are supported.  what model
[04:35] <ardchoille42> How does one ste a bootloader password AFTER Ubuntu has been installed?
[04:35] <aryan> xtknight: i really want to be able to use my pixelview play tv pro card to watch tv on my monitor, but how do i get it working?
[04:35] <Blinocac200sx> awesome thanks
[04:35] <shatrat> caminomaster: Do you have multimedia codecs installed?
[04:36] <xtknight> aryan: not sure if that card is supported.  youll have to look that up
[04:36] <aryan> xtknight: ok thanks for now
[04:36] <xtknight> aryan: getting the chipset of it would be the first step, maybe i can help you with that later
[04:36] <stoned> xtknight, did you OC?
[04:36] <xtknight> stoned: no
[04:36] <aryan> xtknight: sure thing
[04:36] <maddash> ardchoille42: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:36] <caminomaster> which exactly, shatrat ?
[04:36] <aryan> xtknight: ill see you later i guess, tomorrow maybe
[04:36] <xtknight> aryan: i usually hang around here, i dunno ill see if i can be on tomorrow.  ive got finals though
[04:36] <stoned> xtknight, http://laptop.letme.getmyip.com:8181/~stoned/ss/oc.jpg
[04:36] <ardchoille42> maddash, I had a look in there but not smart enough to figure out where to put the password.
[04:36] <xtknight> finals and im in #ubuntu not studying dont you love that?  ubuntu is funner anyway ;)
[04:37] <aryan> xtknight: ill catch you whenever, do you have an email addy i can reach you on?
[04:37] <stoned> xtknight, http://laptop.letme.getmyip.com:8181/~stoned/ss/stable.jpg
[04:37] <tom47> slyfox if you want a detailed description of the bootup process look through this http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/KanjiFlash/BPTour.htm .... is generally general but ubuntu uses grub rather tha lilo
[04:37] <maddash> ardchoille42: just read the comments
[04:37] <stoned> xtknight, check it out
[04:37] <xtknight> aryan: AIM xtknight is that ok?
[04:37] <shatrat> caminomaster: well, you'd need mp3 for sure.  If you havent installed them yet through automatix or whatever, then I can see why that might give you an error
[04:37] <xtknight> aryan: im on aim 24/7 anyway
[04:37] <maddash> ardchoille42: or search thru the file for "password"
[04:37] <stoned> xtknight, I overclocked and got a 1200MHz overclock
[04:37] <shatrat> caminomaster: the default installation doesnt include mp3 or wma or any other patented codecs
[04:37] <xtknight> aryan: and im all over the web, hell just google my name youll find me
[04:37] <aryan> xtknight: i never use aim, i have no idea what it is lol, im from new zealand man we dont use that down here lmfao
[04:37] <stoned> xtknight, 3.0Ghz fully stable, rock solid
[04:37] <xtknight> aryan: xt.knight@gmail.com
[04:37] <shatrat> caminomaster: you could try encoding to .ogg and see if that works.  I always use .ogg anyway
[04:37] <ardchoille42> maddash, Ah hah, found it. Thanks :)
[04:37] <hayden> frogzoo, how do I install the US keyboard layotu
[04:37] <Blinocac200sx> dpkg: error processing courier-authdaemon (--purge):

[04:38] <xtknight> ok
[04:38] <stoned> xtknight, whoah!  I got a cheap little 30$ arctic freezer pro 7
[04:38] <maddash> slyfox: always about 1.5 times the amt of ram
[04:38] <caminomaster> shatrat, I know that k3b needs a special package for this, but don't know which
[04:38] <xtknight> slyfox:  i dont know i just make my swap file 6 gigs for the heck of it

[04:38] <frogzoo> hayden: sys -> prefs -> keyboard
[04:39] <stoned> xtknight, I got 667 ram, if I had gotten 800ddr2 I could easily hit 500+ FSB
[04:39] <slyfox> I heard that nowadays with the amount of RAM pcs have, swap can be like 1 gig for 2 gigs of ram
[04:39] <xtknight> stoned: well i think i have 800 ram..
[04:39] <rellik> in gdm, how do I tell it which xinerama screen is the primary screen? (for the login screen and toolbars, etc)

[04:40] <eternalswd> mike_la, were you satisfied with that script?
[04:41] <stoned> hehe
[04:41] <xtknight> stoned: i didnt see a point in OCing much.
[04:41] <xtknight> stoned: this cpu is already too fas
[04:41] <elijah>  if i want it dual boot, which one should be installed first? ubuntu or kubuntu?
[04:41] <stoned> xtknight, why not
[04:41] <bruenig> elijah, doesn't matter
[04:41] <rm_you> Can someone point me at a guide for making a proper ubuntu repository? I have one that sort-of works, but everyone that installs with it gets a "packages cannot be authenticated" message

[04:42] <adamwest> thanks bruenig
[04:42] <eternalswd> rm_you, did you set up gpg keys?

[04:42] <xtknight> stoned: price matches your nickname ?
[04:42] <stoned> xtknight, huh?
[04:42] <bruenig> adamwest, #linux is probably a good bet
[04:42] <xtknight> stoned: oh, nothing.. just a bad joke...420..stoned..hehe
[04:42] <bruenig> or I think it is ##linux
[04:42] <adamwest> oh ok :P
[04:42] <adamwest> thanks
[04:43] <stoned> xtknight, business is business. ohhh.. lol

[04:43] <rm_you> eternalswd: no, i don't know how :P thats why i  asked about a guide, lol
[04:43] <elporro> Hi! I'm a Windows user who's thinking about experimenting to Ubuntu Linux. Can somebody answer me some basic questions?
[04:43] <stoned> newegg cart was 820 including shipping.  Igot 400 back cuz I sold my old system to my roommate.
[04:43] <Xenguy> !inappropriate speech
[04:43] <xtknight> ssmasud: good to hear just dont click the updates for now
[04:43] <stoned> now I will sell this, get almost 1800$, and then I'll spend another 800$ and build a same kinda system
[04:43] <bruenig> elporro, just ask them
[04:43] <Xenguy> 22:44 <ubotu> Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
[04:43] <stoned> and sell it to someone else
[04:43] <stoned> :)
[04:43] <maddash> !ask | elporro
[04:43] <ubotu> elporro: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:44] <Blinocac200sx> Ok, is there a way to force it to do a purge?
[04:44] <stoned> anyway
[04:44] <xtknight> stoned: weird, dont you want a pc? lol
[04:44] <ssmasud> xtknight.....NS2 still is not installing
[04:44] <xtknight> stoned: i say just get something and stick with it ;)
[04:44] <stoned> xtknight, with more money I can buy more substance
[04:44] <hayden> frogzoo, Ive changed keyboard layout from US Int (with dead keys) to US Alt. Int. (the others are dvorak or russian) but it still isnt workign properly
[04:44] <eternalswd_away> is there any way in xchat to change nicks and identify with nickserv at the same time?
[04:44] <stoned> xtknight, with more substance, I can build more pcs and get my business off the ground
[04:44] <Xenguy> stoned: addiction, what a concept
[04:44] <xtknight> ssmasud: sorry, im bummed out for tonight.   well maybe i can help tomorrow
[04:44] <stoned> not drug substance idiot
[04:45] <Xenguy> idiot
[04:45] <xtknight> ssmasud: just paste your pastebin log for the configure on NS2 to someone here, dependency problems are commonplace someone should be able to help
[04:45] <stoned> substance == material for systems
[04:45] <stoned> parts etc.
[04:45] <ssmasud> xtnight......thanks alot.....i really mean it....
[04:45] <stoned> xtknight, anyway, thanks
[04:45] <xtknight> ssmasud: i would but im a zombie now so
[04:45] <elporro> Thanks! I just recieved an Ubuntu CD I ordered. I have a laptop with a 60 gig HDD and I want to double boot Windows and Ubuntu. How much space should I allocate to each?
[04:46] <bruenig> elporro, 30 30 seems fair
[04:46] <Xenguy> elporro: for comfort, allocate 10Gb for Ubu
[04:46] <elporro> I ask because I have a 20/40 right now
[04:46] <xtknight> good nigth.
[04:46] <elporro> 20 for windows
[04:46] <elporro> and 40 for storage
[04:46] <elporro> only
[04:46] <Xenguy> elporro: sounds good to me
[04:47] <ssmasud> xtnight....zombie??
[04:47] <xtknight> tired
[04:47] <bruenig> elporro, you can do a 20 20 20 scheme if you want and have a partition for sharing data between the two
[04:47] <elporro> now the 40 gig one is NTFS formatted
[04:47] <Xenguy> elporro: ubu doesn't take much room
[04:47] <ssmasud> xtknight...lol..ok ok...np....
[04:47] <Xenguy> elporro: think interoperability :-)
[04:47] <bruenig> !es
[04:47] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[04:48] <elporro> Do I need something like Partition Magic to make the partition or can I just delete the D: partition with the windows innstall cd?
[04:48] <bruenig> elporro, there is a partitioning part of the ubuntu install where you can do all you need
[04:48] <elporro> and make a new one unformatted?
[04:49] <Blinocac200sx> How to a force the removal of a package
[04:49] <bruenig> Blinocac200sx, sudo apt-get remove package is giving you what
[04:49] <elporro> so I just boot my machine with the ubuntu CD and it will prompt me?
[04:49] <maddash> Blinocac200sx: clarify. what do you mean "force"?
[04:49] <Xenguy> elporro: I'm a bit off, but I think you can delete partitions with whatever tool works
[04:49] <corevette> how come ubuntu live cd freezes on boot.....
[04:49] <Blinocac200sx> when I used the dpkg purge command it wouldn;t remove it
[04:50] <bruenig> elporro, when you put the cd in, it will boot to a desktop that you can mess around with and to install you just click the install icon and it will take you through a little dialog with partitioning and other stuff like language
[04:50] <Xenguy> corevette: hardware incompatibility
[04:50] <Xenguy> ?
[04:50] <maddash> Blinocac200sx: what's the msg?
[04:50] <Blinocac200sx> but it won't let me reinstall it, so I want to force the pakages removal
[04:50] <elporro> I played around with the live cd
[04:50] <frogzoo> corevette: try booting the install with option 'linux acpi=off'
[04:50] <elporro> and saw the install
[04:50] <Blinocac200sx> like when I used the dpkg: error processing courier-authdaemon (--purge):
[04:50] <Blinocac200sx>  Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
[04:50] <Blinocac200sx>  reinstall it before attempting a removal.
[04:50] <Blinocac200sx> Errors were encountered while processing:
[04:50] <Blinocac200sx>  courier-authdaemon
[04:50] <corevette> how frogzoo
[04:50] <elporro> but I was afraid I was gonna lose my data
[04:50] <hayden> frogzoo, Ive changed keyboard layout from US Int (with dead keys) to US Alt. Int. (the others are dvorak or russian) but it still isnt workign properly
[04:50] <bruenig> Blinocac200sx, did you try reinstalling?
[04:50] <elporro> I mean my windows install
[04:51] <Blinocac200sx> it won't let me
[04:51] <ssmasud> hey...can anybody help me with NS2 installation over here???
[04:51] <frogzoo> corevette: if you hit F6 - you get a grub config - edit that
[04:51] <Blinocac200sx> is there a way to force reinstallation
[04:51] <maddash> Blinocac200sx: try the apt-get remove cmd bruenig gave you
[04:51] <corevette> where do i add it frogzoo
[04:51] <Xenguy> elporro: when you re-partition you can definitely lose data :-)
[04:51] <frogzoo> corevette: just add 'acpi=off to the end of the line with root=..."
[04:51] <elporro> that's ok
[04:51] <bruenig> elporro, no, it doesn't do anything until after you have set everything up. You set up your partition and language and location and stuff and then at the end of it all there is an install button. Before that button there are no changes
[04:51] <elporro> I have backed up now
[04:51] <Xenguy> elporro: good idea :-)
[04:51] <corevette> stay on frogzoo..i'll try it
[04:52] <elporro> I have an External HDD
[04:52] <elporro> so I;m covered
[04:52] <di||itante> Blinocac200sx, : apt-get -reinstall install packagename
[04:52] <frogzoo> hayden: use: "US English"
[04:52] <Winter-1> help me
[04:53] <elporro> ok thanks I guess I'm gonna try it now
[04:53] <draeath> anyone familiar with XFCE
[04:53] <Xenguy> Winter-1: never :-)
[04:53] <Winter-1> when i run gaim in the terminal i get this GTK Accessibility Module initialized
[04:53] <Winter-1> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[04:53] <elporro> If it doesn;t work the only thing I'll lose it;s the windows install
[04:53] <Winter-1> it wont run for some odd reason
[04:53] <Xenguy> Winter-1: install from package - that's my best advice
[04:53] <wastrel> yo peeps
[04:54] <Blinocac200sx> command line -r unknown?
[04:54] <ericj2190> how to i completely reinstall my vsftp package, so that it recreates the ftp user and the config files?
[04:54] <Winter-1> xenguy alright
[04:54] <wastrel> ericj2190:  did you try the --reinstall flag ?
[04:54] <bruenig> ericj2190, I assume that if you just deleted the config files and then launched the program that would do those things
[04:54] <Taime1> how do i tell firefox to use a different version of java?
[04:54] <Xenguy> ericj2190: purge the vsftp first, then re-install
[04:54] <draeath> every time I exit XFCE and log back in, my fonts alternate from large to small. If my font size is 12, it also goes bold when it switches larger. Basically I keep flipping between 10p and 12p font to adjust... this is using DejaVu fonts.
[04:54] <ssmasud> NS2 assistance required???
[04:54] <maddash> Blinocac200sx: did you try the apt-get remove cmd?

[04:56] <Taime1> to make a long story short:
[04:56] <eisma> can anyone help me install flash 9 on ubuntu?
[04:56] <bruenig> Blinocac200sx, do what it says "sudo apt-get -f install"

[04:56] <Blinocac200sx> I'm just running in circles
[04:56] <Taime1> okay, well, how do i tell firefox to use that java version?
[04:57] <Winter-1> what do i need to build from svn
[04:57] <bruenig> eisma, howto I put together http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279990
[04:57] <JPMaximilian> is feisty still in a rather unstable state?
[04:57] <Winter-1> because i get svn: command not found
[04:57] <rellik_> when I try to run the terminal program it comes up on the toolbar as 'Starting terminal' but after a few seconds it goes away, and the window never pops up
[04:57] <ssmasud> any NS2 experts over here????plz...
[04:57] <corevette> frogzoo...this time the progress bar didn't even move
[04:57] <bruenig> Taime1, the following command should work: sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
[04:57] <ericj2190> should i delete anything else other than the ftp user and the config files?
[04:57] <rellik_> how do I find out why I can't run terminal?
[04:57] <j1p> I'm having trouble with sound in CS 1.6 under wine, anyone have any ideas?
[04:58] <Blinocac200sx> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2832/
[04:58] <Taime1> well, see here's my other question.. doesnt that apply to every program in the computer?
[04:58] <Xenguy> rellik_: apt-get install gnome-terminal
[04:58] <bruenig> Xenguy, how do you expect him to do that?
[04:58] <Blinocac200sx> thats what I get when I run the apt-get -f install
[04:58] <Xenguy> bruenig: you tell me =)
[04:59] <rellik_> Xenguy, it is already installed..  is there a way for apt-get to redownload and reinstall?
[04:59] <gleamnite> What's the quickest way to migrate a database from MS Access to MySQL?
[04:59] <bruenig> rellik_, what happens when you do alt+f2 to get the run dialog and run gnome-terminal? does that work?
[04:59] <Blinocac200sx> I need it to quit arguing with me and just remove the package when I tell it to
[04:59] <Xenguy> rellik_: purge/re-install, or --reinstall  ?
[04:59] <Oly> OMG! I AM ABOUT TO SHOOT MY SELF IN THE FACE!!!!
[04:59] <bruenig> Blinocac200sx, what is this package, where did you get it and such
[04:59] <Xenguy> Oly: click
[04:59] <gleamnite> Don't do it... it's messy.
[05:00] <rellik_> bruenig, no, alt-F2 -> 'gnome-terminal' doesn't seem to do anything
[05:00] <Blinocac200sx> I was upgrading to edgy, and something happened, and the install aborted halfway through
[05:00] <Oly> ALRIGHT!!! NOW that I believe I finally have a UN CORRUPT VERSION! AFter my 6th GOddam CD! I get error 15 when grub loads and I dont know how to get around it
[05:00] <bef> Orly Oly
[05:00] <Xenguy> grrr
[05:00] <Oly> WTH DO I DO? I WILL PAY PAl SOMEONE 5 BUcks right away IF they can help set this up within a our!
[05:00] <Oly> on the table
[05:00] <bruenig> Oly, you need to calm down
[05:00] <di||itante> Blinocac200sx, Did you to the "apt-get --reinstall install courier-authdaemon"
[05:00] <corevette> well i'm going to fedora since no one can fix my problem
[05:00] <theilliniguy> newb question - im running 6.06 - should I update to newest version?
[05:00] <Blinocac200sx> now when I try to run synaptic or updates it gives me errors
[05:01] <Blinocac200sx> apt-get has no reinstall option
[05:01] <maddash> Blinocac200sx: are you downloading courier-authdaemon?
[05:01] <bef> corevette what is your problem
[05:01] <Xenguy> theilliniguy: breezy is supported the longest (if that matters)
[05:01] <maddash> Blinocac200sx: try another mirror, if you are...
[05:01] <di||itante> Blinocac200sx, yes it does
[05:01] <bruenig> theilliniguy, if you want to. You aren't missing much by not upgrading. And some say the newer one is unstable.
[05:01] <corevette> bef....when i load the live cd...it freezes on boot during the logo with the progress bar going
[05:01] <bruenig> Xenguy means dapper not breezy
[05:01] <Blinocac200sx> I honestly don't care about auth daemon I just want synaptic to work correctly and it won't because that stupid package is in a "bad state"
[05:01] <Xenguy> bruenig: true
[05:01] <Oly> corvette: try the alternate cd
[05:01] <theilliniguy> ok
[05:01] <Taime1> corvette, try this boot option: acpi=off
[05:02] <Taime1> or yeah, there's that
[05:02] <Taime1> haha
[05:02] <bef> corevette; possibly the livecd has a fault, why don't you try a respin or rewriting it?
[05:02] <di||itante> Blinocac200sx, yes but to remove it it needs to be correctly installed first
[05:02] <corevette> taime1...i put in root=linux acpi=off     and it didn't work
[05:02] <theilliniguy> nuther question how can I get WPA added to wireless properties?
[05:02] <Oly> bah. Ya now someone?? anyone?  What do i do to get around this error 15 when grub loads
[05:02] <bruenig> Blinocac200sx, can you get a deb of that package and dpkg -i it?
[05:02] <Xenguy> bruenig: and actually one of the reasons I installed etch :-)
[05:02] <corevette> yup i've done that three times bef
[05:02] <Taime1> i see
[05:02] <Taime1> well yeah, the alternative cd never failed me
[05:02] <bruenig> !patience | Oly
[05:02] <ubotu> Oly: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[05:02] <Blinocac200sx> so I have tgo format my hdd
[05:02] <bef> corevette; have you run previous versions of ubuntu or debian?
[05:03] <dimeo> whats up ppl!
[05:03] <ericj2190> can anyone help me fully uninstall and reinstall vsftp, so that it creates the ftp user and its config files? i removed it with apt-get, but when i reinstall it it does not reconfigure itself.
[05:03] <theilliniguy> bruenig - thought so thx
[05:03] <Oly> Lol. kay. thought uu forgot about me now
[05:03] <corevette> i've run ubuntu edgy eft with the same specs before
[05:03] <Oly> =/
[05:03] <corevette> bef
[05:03] <Blinocac200sx> crap this sucks
[05:03] <Blinocac200sx> I have files on here
[05:03] <bruenig> ericj2190, you need to delete the config files, figure out where they are, my bet is that they are in the home directory
[05:03] <rellik_> I reinstalled gnome-terminal, but it still silently fails to open..  is there a log file or something I can check?
[05:03] <Xenguy> ericj2190: keywords = purge reinstall
[05:03] <JPMaximilian> theilliniguy: i found 6.10 to be much snappier
[05:03] <di||itante> Blinocac200sx, your freaking out, did you do what i suggested
[05:03] <Blinocac200sx> Yes
[05:03] <Blinocac200sx> and it took me back to where I started
[05:03] <arrenlex> Oly: When grub loads, press 'e' to edit the commands before you boot. Change the filenames to point to the correct files.
[05:04] <bef> corevette; hmm.. so your master/slave hdd-cdrom settings havent changed since your last install?, with debian its sometimes very important :o
[05:04] <ericj2190> xenguy: i deleteted the vsftpd.conf file
[05:04] <j1p> I'm having trouble with sound in CS 1.6 under wine, anyone have any ideas?
[05:04] <Xenguy> rellik_: something is messed up - you should totally be able to install gnome-terminal
[05:04] <Blinocac200sx> it said to run the apt-get -f install
[05:04] <di||itante> Blinocac200sx, did it say you installed it correctly
[05:04] <corevette> actually yes they have changed....my hdd bef
[05:04] <Blinocac200sx> no
[05:04] <frogzoo> corevette: well then, you didn't do the edit right
[05:04] <Oly> arrenlex:   Ubuntu isn't really installed....
[05:04] <rellik_> Xenguy, it installed without a problem..  it just won't open
[05:04] <theilliniguy> JPMaximilian how do I upgrade the whole system?
[05:04] <arrenlex> Oly: Then boot Windows.
[05:04] <Oly> not existent
[05:04] <corevette> frogzoo what should i put....the whole thing of what i should add
[05:05] <Xenguy> ericj2190: you can 'purge' with dpkg or apt-get; then reinstall (I think there is an apt-get option for this also)
[05:05] <Oly> i reformated but it got caught inbetween the installation.
[05:05] <arrenlex> Oly: Then what exactly are you trying to boot?
[05:05] <JPMaximilian> theilliniguy: you mean without doing a clean install?
[05:05] <bef> corevette; alright i think you need to ensure that the HDD is the master and if that doesn't work, I'm very sorry that I don't know how to help you :(
[05:05] <frogzoo> corevette: just at the end of the line, add 'acpi=off'
[05:05] <Oly> the installation cd . but its stuck ont he screen with grub erro15
[05:05] <theilliniguy> JPMaximilian ya - can it be done over 6.06?
[05:05] <corevette> nothing else frogzoo?
[05:05] <Xenguy> rellik_: if gnome-terminal won't open then your installation is suspect IMHO :-)
[05:05] <frogzoo> corevette: nope, then hit return & it should try to boot
[05:05] <tom47> Oly for an explanation of what error 15 is ... http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/grub-error-guide.xml?style=printable
[05:05] <corevette> alright i'll try again frogzoo
[05:05] <Oly> Sweet
[05:06] <JPMaximilian> theilliniguy: i would think so, i'm a fan of clean installs myself, but i'll see if i can find some documentation
[05:06] <theilliniguy> anone  how can I get WPA added to wireless properties?
[05:06] <rellik_> Xenguy, I'm thinking it has something to do with the fact I just got xinerama working..  that's the only thing I've changed recently
[05:06] <frogzoo> !wifi | theilliniguy
[05:06] <ubotu> theilliniguy: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:06] <JPMaximilian> theilliniguy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[05:06] <Blinocac200sx> well I'd love a clean install, but aparentlly edgy doesn't do that
[05:07] <theilliniguy> JPMaximilian ok thx
[05:07] <bruenig> Blinocac200sx, edgy doesn't do that?
[05:07] <theilliniguy> JPMaximilian thx
[05:07] <Blinocac200sx> Well if it did I wouldn't be having trouble would I?
[05:07] <bruenig> Blinocac200sx, it absolute does fresh install. Get the edgy install cd, format and go.
[05:07] <Blinocac200sx> so what do I do when a package won't reinstall and won't remove
[05:07] <arsentop> surely a clean install would be whatever edgy gives you :p
[05:07] <JPMaximilian> you can clean install 6.10
[05:08] <JPMaximilian> to say otherwise is absurd
[05:08] <erpo> How do I permanently block a particular package from being updated?
[05:08] <Xenguy> rellik_: could be a clue, I don't know
[05:08] <bruenig> apt-pinning
[05:08] <ericj2190> xenguy: thanks, dpkg purge worked
[05:08] <Blinocac200sx> thats what I said a few lines back and somebody told me I was just fraking out
[05:08] <Xenguy> ericj2190: yay :-)

[05:10] <j1p> I am getting no sound at all in Counterstrike 1.6 under wine 0.9.29, I have it set to use the OSS driver, other than that this is a pretty much clean Edgy install, is there anything I need to do?
[05:11] <kalosaurusre1> how do i make ssh/vnc and so forth start at boot so i can have a headless system?\
[05:11] <Pelo> j1p,  go and ask the lovely ppl in #winehq
[05:11] <Iver2435> I thought that the install process for sshd added it to the startup procedure
[05:12] <erpo> cmweb: I don't know. If you find a blocking proxy, you can make it transparent by chaining it with a transparent proxy. But blocking proxies are not effective. People will find ways around them. Better to log everything your employees look at. Logging is more effective than blocking.
[05:12] <riotkittie> Iver2435: it does. or, at least it did for me
[05:12] <arsentop> j1p checked all sound levels are up etc (not muted) check the default devices are OSS if you're using oss.
[05:12] <kalosaurusre1> Iver2435: i wish..it's not starting until i login.. lame..hehe
[05:12] <fonkmaster> Wheres a good tutorial for dual booting ubuntu on mac osx
[05:12] <fonkmaster> ?
[05:12] <JPMaximilian> erpo: in synaptic, you click on a package, then click on "package" at the top of the window and click "Lock Version"
[05:12] <corevette> frogzoo..it still doesn't work
[05:13] <di||itante> Blinocac200sx, i only said that because you were suggesting a reinstall because a package was broken, which by itself in an absurd reason to reinstall your entire os
[05:13] <Oly> ALright. That page didn't help at al. there is no press to continuee or anything its locked
[05:13] <fatbrain> hrm, is there a road-map for ubuntu development?

[05:18] <endo602> as said in the forums
[05:18] <cmweb> dans guardian, what repository is it in
[05:18] <tonyyarusso> corevette: Someone put a thing together, but I would not recommend it.  There's no reason for such things anyway - the Ubuntu installers are quite straightforward.
[05:18] <endo602> but i cant seem to get the picture working.  The light goes on but no picture
[05:18] <corevette> wastrel....so you can install ubuntu while you are in xp
[05:19] <corevette> tonyyarusso...i can't get the livecd to boot
[05:19] <tonyyarusso> !alternate | corevette
[05:19] <ubotu> corevette: 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.
[05:19] <tonyyarusso> corevette: Then that is your safe choice.
[05:19] <fatbrain> I have to say the ubuntu website is far than regular
[05:19] <JPMaximilian> corevette: did you set the cd in the boot order of your bios?
[05:19] <roaet> In addition, when I run aptitude or the system update or apt-get, there is a task that keeps running that always fails. Is there some way that I can make the task stop runing.
[05:19] <fatbrain> where have they hidden the beta-downloads?!
[05:19] <host_> !ntfs
[05:19] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:19] <tonyyarusso> fatbrain: for?
[05:19] <fatbrain> 7.xxx download
[05:19] <corevette> yes jpmaximilian....and i can get to the ubuntu logo...but the progress bar eventually freezes
[05:20] <tonyyarusso> !feisty | fatbrain
[05:20] <ubotu> fatbrain: 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
[05:20] <corevette> where do i get it tonyyarusso
[05:20] <foo> the user@hostname in a terminal still has the old hostname...
[05:20] <foo> I think that's the problem
[05:20] <JPMaximilian> corevette: how much memory do you have on your comp
[05:20] <fatbrain> thanks
[05:20] <corevette> jpmaximilian 1.5 gigs
[05:20] <JPMaximilian> corevette: well i'm out of ideas
[05:20] <tonyyarusso> corevette: Same place you downloaded the other disk.  I'm assuming that your issue is during load, not bios boot order.  is that correct?
[05:20] <JPMaximilian> corevette: i guess you could still try the alt-cd, but sounds like its something else
[05:20] <theilliniguy> JPMaximilian but my network connection seems fine..?
[05:21] <Vom> Where can I find more info about fglrx ?
[05:21] <JPMaximilian> theilliniguy: i don't know, maybe the its on the other side
[05:21] <dimeo> whats the big change that feistys gonna have?
[05:21] <corevette> jpmaximilian and tonyyarusso do you think other distros would have this problem? truthfully here
[05:21] <JPMaximilian> Vom: ubuntu.com/support
[05:21] <cmweb> dans guardian, is downloading and it looks to be exactly what im loking for thanks!
[05:22] <Vom> Thanks JP
[05:22] <theilliniguy> JPMaximilian ok i can try later - thx for the help
[05:22] <JPMaximilian> corevette: it could be hardware, maybe you have bad memory, maybe the iso you downloaded is bad
[05:22] <tonyyarusso> corevette: say again what's happening?
[05:23] <corevette> tonyyarusso...the live cd options come up, i choose start/install and when the ubuntu logo comes up with the progress bar...the progress bar eventually freezes and just stays that way
[05:23] <tonyyarusso> corevette: Have you tried the "check CD integrity" option yet?
[05:23] <JPMaximilian> corevette: and try running a memory test overnight too
[05:24] <corevette> well tonyyarusso i can't even boot to that
[05:24] <corevette> jpmaximilian so if the memory test fails....what does that mean
[05:24] <JPMaximilian> corvette: you have bad memory
[05:24] <roaet> thanks.
[05:24] <Vom> Corevette which videocard do you have?
[05:24] <JPMaximilian> corvette: the live-cd is trying to load "stuff" into your memory and because the memory is bad, lockups occur
[05:25] <corevette> vom radeon x1300
[05:25] <Vom> Thought so.
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> corevette: So you get to the options, but no matter what you select it can't go forward?
[05:25] <Vom> I got x800, and I had the exact same proplem.
[05:25] <corevette> vom ati...i know
[05:25] <Vom> Only thing what worked was to download the alternative cd
[05:25] <erpo> Thanks all. Got it!
[05:25] <corevette> tonyyarusso and jpmaximilian vom says its the ati card
[05:25] <corevette> where do you get it vom
[05:25] <Vom> www.ubuntu.com
[05:25] <shatrat> same place as you got the other one
[05:25] <Vom> Yup.
[05:26] <Eldrani> I'm having a few more errors which trying to get Ubuntu installed.
[05:26] <maddash> tonyyarusso: so, have you gotten the aiglx working yet?
[05:26] <corevette> vom is it easy to install
[05:26] <Vom> corevette what is ?
[05:26] <corevette> vom the installer
[05:26] <rellik_> any ideas why gnome-terminal silently fails when I try to open it?
[05:26] <Vom> So you've installed already?
[05:26] <tonyyarusso> maddash: Kind of.  I got it to work, but it crashes about twice daily.
[05:26] <JPMaximilian> Eldrani: like what?
[05:26] <Eldrani> This is the third time I've put the installer on a disk, and I keep failing the Integrity check
[05:26] <corevette> vom is the alternate cd installer easy to use? or is it the same thing? text interface? what
[05:26] <JPMaximilian> Eldrani: try downloading the iso again
[05:26] <Eldrani> I can't seem to erase ubuntu from the disks either.
[05:27] <Vom> Ahh
[05:27] <Vom> Its almost the same.
[05:27] <Eldrani> I have downlaoded it, twice.
[05:27] <wastrel> hi
[05:27] <corevette> vom okay...so i'll try taht
[05:27] <Eldrani> I tried erasing Ubuntu from one of my disks, and it totally corrupted it.
[05:27] <Eldrani> I'm running out of disks. xP
[05:27] <Vom> Yup, dont hesitate asking me again if you have proplems :b Im a darn newb with these things but i'd love to help people
[05:27] <maddash> eldrani how'd that happen?
[05:27] <JPMaximilian> you tired erasing ubuntu from your hard drive and it corrupting the harddrive?
[05:27] <tom47> Eldrani are you using bittorrent to do your downloads?
[05:28] <Vom> corevette oh by the way
[05:28] <Eldrani> Tried to erase it using Infra Recorder, totally froze up and corrupted it
[05:28] <Eldrani> No I'm using a mirror on the 6.10 release.
[05:28] <corevette> yes vom
[05:28] <tom47> Eldrani then get it via bitorrent and at least the download will be error free
[05:29] <Eldrani> What do you mean?
[05:29] <Vom> corevette: nothing, i just thought about using the non graphical on the normal cd but i tried that :b
[05:29] <_`XeOn_> help plz i cant watch wmv online
[05:29] <shatrat> _`XeOn_: !restrictedformats
[05:29] <Vom> Think I need to reboot in a mom :-o
[05:30] <shatrat> dyslexic
[05:30] <Eldrani> I'm not having errors with the ISO itself, I don't believe.
[05:30] <Eldrani> The hash codes match up correctly.
[05:30] <Eldrani> It's the burning part that's screwing me over.
[05:30] <shatrat> Eldrani: Burn at a slow speed?
[05:30] <Pie-rate> i just got a dual core processor, i expected it would be better at multitasking but it isn't, how do i make sure linux is using it properly?
[05:31] <tom47> Eldrani i will give you a url .... if you use bittorrent raher than fpe then you get a validated iso
[05:31] <Zchild> does anybody know of a Linux email app that'll interact with M$ exchange?
[05:31] <shatrat> Pie-rate:  type cat /proc/cpuinfo
[05:31] <mwalsh> how do you make yourself root?
[05:31] <Eldrani> Why would they offer unvalidated ISOs on their mirrors as opposed to their torrents?
[05:31] <cmweb> I have a Game Essentials Game Pad, how do i install it? (it has not one but two joy sticks, 8 Buttons, Directional pad, Start, Select, Esc, Enter, and Mouse Buttons)
[05:31] <tonyyarusso> !root | mwalsh
[05:31] <shatrat> Pie-rate: you should have a processor 0 and a processor 1
[05:31] <ubotu> mwalsh: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:32] <Pie-rate> shatrat: no, i don't.
[05:32] <cmweb> i meant and acks as a mouse
[05:32] <shatrat> Pie-rate: what do you get when you enter "uname -r"
[05:32] <Pie-rate> 2.6.17-10-386
[05:33] <shatrat> Pie-rate: thats the problem. What distro are you on? Dapper, edgy?
[05:33] <Eldrani> When I'm trying to reburn my install disk, can I just burn over the existing files, or do I gotta clean it off? I've tried cleaning it off, no good. :/
[05:33] <tom47> Eldrani http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu/edgy/
[05:33] <rellik_> update: gnome-terminal won't open..  it fails with this error message: http://pastebin.com/866741
[05:33] <shatrat> Eldrani: Unless its a CD-RW (which cost more) you have to get a new disk
[05:34] <rellik_> any ideas?
[05:34] <JPMaximilian> Eldrani: once you burn an iso to a CD-R you can't burn over it
[05:34] <Pie-rate> shatrat: edgy
[05:34] <tom47> and go down and get one of the files ending in .torrent
[05:34] <ZellSF> can oss play sounds from two different sources at the same time?
[05:34] <cmweb> !gamepad
[05:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gamepad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:34] <Eldrani> I'm using an RW
[05:34] <shatrat> Pie-rate: You need to install and use the -generic kernel
[05:34] <Eldrani> Thanks for the link, btw.
[05:34] <Eldrani> Downloading now.
[05:34] <shatrat> Pie-rate: the generic one automagically detects hyperthreading and SMP
[05:35] <tom47> eldrani select one of the files ending in .torrent
[05:35] <quique-> hello everybody
[05:35] <Eldrani> Okay
[05:35] <quique-> hi mako,how are u ?
[05:35] <cmweb> !joystick
[05:35] <Pie-rate> shatrat: ok, how do i make grub default to booting that one?
[05:35] <ubotu> joystick: Testing and calibration tools. In component universe, is extra. Version 20051019-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 13 kB, installed size 76 kB
[05:36] <Eldrani> What's the difference between to the normal one and the torrent one? How is one "vaildated"?
[05:36] <shatrat> Pie-rate: Once you make sure it works ok and everything, you can just delete the entries for the -386 or copy and paste the -generic one to the top of the list.
[05:36] <cmweb> Any one have any clue?
[05:36] <shatrat> Pie-rate: in the /boot/grub/menu.lst I mean
[05:36] <tom47> eldrani the bittorrent process is self validating
[05:36] <vom> Heh, 200 megabytes of updates imediately :-)
[05:36] <tom47> eldrani but ftp is not
[05:36] <Eldrani> Okay.
[05:37] <Eldrani> I just finished burning the one I had going...
[05:37] <Eldrani> Wish me luck...
[05:37] <shatrat> Eldrani: Good luck
[05:37] <Eldrani> brb, reboot time
[05:37] <tHeDuDe> Anyone looking forward to a particular new feature / bug fix in Feisty?
[05:37] <kalifornia909> hello everyone
[05:37] <cmweb> How do i install a joy stick
[05:38] <kalifornia909> has anyone installed raid from the alternate cd
[05:38] <erpo> cmweb: No idea. Sorry.
[05:38] <Pie-rate> shatrat: thanks, restarting
[05:38] <wastrel> christ i hate the gnome file save dialogs
[05:38] <wastrel> why must they be so horrible
[05:39] <tHeDuDe> "Would you not like to discard your changes?"
[05:39] <frogzoo> tHeDuDe: stable beryl out of the box will be very popular
[05:39] <tHeDuDe> "Yes / No / Maybe"
[05:39] <tHeDuDe> Yeah, they are using some other alternative 3D, right?
[05:40] <tHeDuDe> And turning it on by default?
[05:40] <tHeDuDe> Assuming your hardware supports it.
[05:40] <tom47> no
[05:40] <tom47> maybe
[05:40] <cmweb> !gamecontroller
[05:40] <frogzoo> tHeDuDe: beryl will be default? hmmm...
[05:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gamecontroller - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:40] <tHeDuDe> Read that somewhere on their site.
[05:40] <tHeDuDe> Not Beryl...
[05:41] <frogzoo> tHeDuDe: xgl/aiglx ?
[05:41] <Eldrani> Darn it all! That was my fourth CD-RW!
[05:41] <tHeDuDe> Yeah.
[05:41] <shatrat> aiglx is already in edgy, kind of
[05:41] <shatrat> you have to have the nvidia drivers to use it, but its in xorg
[05:41] <Winter-1> when i run gaim in the terminal i get this GTK Accessibility Module initialized
[05:41] <Winter-1> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[05:41] <erpo> Winter-1: Lame. Get a backtrace.
[05:41] <Winter-1> i reinstalled gaim and same problem
[05:42] <Eldrani> It doesn't even say that anything is on the disk!
[05:42] <shatrat> Pie-rate: So, 0 and 1 now?
[05:42] <kalifornia909> !raid
[05:42] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[05:42] <Pie-rate> shatrat: nvidia drivers don't work with the generic ones. are you sure there's no way to get it to work with the 386 one?
[05:42] <tom47> Eldrani: reburning an error filled iso will do that
[05:42] <shatrat> Pie-rate: You just have to reinstall them
[05:42] <cmweb> What is raid
[05:42] <vom> Yup, im off to sleep. Good night
[05:42] <tom47> nite vom
[05:42] <erpo> cmweb: Google it.
[05:43] <Pie-rate> shatrat: video drivers are a huge pain in the ass =/
[05:43] <shatrat> Pie-rate: the drivers have a shim interface with the kernel which is kernel specific
[05:43] <bwlang> cmweb: redundant array of independent disks
[05:43] <cmweb> i cant
[05:43] <tHeDuDe> I second that video driver comment....unfortunately.
[05:43] <shatrat> Pie-rate: Yes, they are.  You can leave your xorg.conf the way you had it and everything though
[05:43] <cmweb> im taking on a lot of Bw right now
[05:43] <Taime1> how do i set up my router? can i simply plug it in and it should work? like my cable modem?
[05:43] <shatrat> Pie-rate: all you really need is to do run their installer script
[05:44] <cmweb> Raid = Massive storage?
[05:44] <erpo> Taime1: If by router you mean home broadband gateway, then the answer is quite possibly. Try it.
[05:44] <eggs> hello? is this where i can come for some help?
[05:44] <shatrat> You can get massive storage just by using a bunch of disks. Raid is for speed and redundancy
[05:44] <mwalsh> yes
[05:44] <erpo> eggs: Yes.
[05:44] <Winter-1> meh still dont work
[05:44] <mwalsh> Hey guys um according to Ubuntu I dont have permissions to write to any of my ntfs hard drives, how can  i fix this?
[05:44] <eggs> i have a question about getting my video card drivers so i can get open gl working
[05:44] <timo> bye all
[05:44] <Atomiku> How can I start the vnc server through terminal?
[05:45] <Eldrani> Damn, that just totally screwed me over!
[05:45] <user01> is ubuntu going to go to ice weasel for feisty?
[05:45] <erpo> mwalsh: Read the ntfs-3g howto.
[05:45] <Pie-rate> shatrat: are the current nvidia drivers in the ubuntu repo 9746?
[05:45] <mwalsh> erpo: link?
[05:45] <eggs> every time i follow directions off of a website my xorg crashes
[05:45] <riotkittie> !ntfs-3g | mwalsh
[05:45] <ubotu> mwalsh: 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. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[05:45] <shatrat> Pie-rate: no.  There is another repo that has those though.
[05:45] <frogzoo> user01: wtf is ice weasel?
[05:45] <tonyyarusso> ubotu: hasn't yet
[05:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hasn't yet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:45] <Eldrani> How do I format RWs? They won't even load!
[05:45] <tonyyarusso> user01: hasn't yet
[05:45] <Pie-rate> frogzoo: a fork of firefox used by debian, i believe
[05:45] <Atomiku> !vnc
[05:45] <mwalsh> thanks mates:) more questions later.
[05:45] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[05:45] <shatrat> Pie-rate: its linked in the Beryl Edgy how to on the ubuntu document storage porject
[05:46] <cmweb> is their a walk through to install Samba and get it working so that every one can see every one?
[05:46] <frogzoo> Pie-rate: ah, k thx
[05:46] <user01> tonyyarusso: ok thanks
[05:46] <Pie-rate> shatrat: yeah.
[05:46] <BHSPitLappy> yo
[05:46] <eggs> i am using a ubuntu 6.06 lts
[05:46] <frogzoo> !samba | cmweb
[05:46] <ubotu> cmweb: 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
[05:46] <BHSPitLappy> I'm trying to recover GRUB, but none of my LiveCDs can see the drive's partitions
[05:46] <BHSPitLappy> the list is empty
[05:47] <cmweb> ive done that but it does not work like i hoped. I want all my windows clients to be able to see my shares
[05:47] <cmweb> but they cant
[05:47] <kbrosnan> frogzoo: Pie-rate is correct it is the debian fork of Firefox without any trademark restrictions. There is also a gnu project of the same name, I don't know if the two are now working in concert.
[05:47] <tom47> BHSPitLappy: have you tried mounting any of them?
[05:47] <cmweb> although i can see theirs
[05:47] <user01> tonyyarusso: i was wondering cause i just installed debian and it looked almost exactly like ubuntu except there was iceweasel instead of firefox
[05:47] <BHSPitLappy> tom47, I'm talking about partitioners.
[05:47] <BHSPitLappy> parted...
[05:47] <Carutsu> hello
[05:47] <eggs> anyone?
[05:48] <BHSPitLappy> it's a Dell, by the way
[05:48] <Taime1> one other question: is there a command similar to "ipconfig" in windows that tells me the ip address of my router?
[05:48] <tom47> oh
[05:48] <aleka> I have a problem that has started about two weeks or so... When I play video, [have tried mplayer,totem,xine,VLC,Real]  and different formats[avi,mov.mpeg,wmv,dvd]  the picture I am getting from these players is too bright to a point where I can not see anything.. Is this a problem with Xorg settings??
[05:48] <Carutsu> i installed Thunderbird and i want to make it work with hotmail, but for some reason i install webmail, but i cannot configure my webmail account
[05:48] <shatrat> aleka: is it only video?
[05:48] <maikol> how can i find the amount of time it takes to boot my machine
[05:49] <aleka> shatrat: everything else on the desktop is ok, no brightness, pictures are fine as well
[05:49] <quinnster> I'm running Ubuntu 6.10, but would like to add the new XFCE 4.4 as an option.  I know there is a separate Xubuntu, but how hard would it be to have both available as... sessions(?)...  Thanks.
[05:49] <Carutsu> if i run thunderbird as a root i can... so i think are permisions problems, but i cannot figure what to do (i tried changing the /etc/mozlla-thunderbird permisions but didnt work)
[05:49] <shatrat> aleka: What video drivers do you have? I know the nvidia ones have special settings for video.
[05:49] <nrdb> Hi I have a laptop I am trying to connect to the internet, It phone the ISP etc. creates the ppp0 interface, the route defaults to ppp0, but I can't do any pings ether to a URL or an IP address. can anyone help ?
[05:49] <aleka> I have an Intel shatrat
[05:50] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: Are you trying to connect graphically or by a command?
[05:50] <aleka>  VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G] /GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)
[05:50] <riotkittie> how new is XFCE 4.4 -  to new for the edgy repos?
[05:50] <Carutsu> any thoughs?
[05:50] <riotkittie> err too.
[05:50] <nrdb> tonyyarusso: I am using vwdial to connect.
[05:50] <quinnster> Fairly new.  4.2 is what Slackware 11 is using.
[05:50] <shatrat> aleka: I dont know anything about those.  Thats a pretty common chipset though, hoipefully if you search around someone else has had that problem and knows how to fix it
[05:51] <erpo> Do mplayer and ffmpeg use the same backend?
[05:51] <riotkittie> ah. i think i have 4.4 on zen 4.2 but i am not sure
[05:51] <Pie-rate> shatrat: so sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx? or do i need to linux-restricted-modules?
[05:51] <ouroboros> So hello channel!  :)
[05:51] <quinnster> However, DreamLinux is using it already.
[05:51] <quinnster> riotkittie, yeah I think so.
[05:51] <quinnster> Do you like it?
[05:51] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: Could you pastebin its output?
[05:51] <aleka> shatrat: what keywords should I be using? I know it is not a media player issue, am not using any compositing engines...what should I look for?
[05:51] <tom47> BHSPitLappy: try this in a terminal window sudo parted /dev/hda print
[05:51] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: You're sure the hardware is being driven in a working fashion?
[05:51] <riotkittie> quinnster: it's alright, i guess, but i'm really not a fan of XFCE
[05:52] <shatrat> Pie-rate: I dont know, I always install my drivers from the nvidia installer.
[05:52] <Taime1> one other question: is there a command similar to "ipconfig" in windows that tells me the ip address of my router?
[05:52] <Pie-rate> shatrat: k

[05:53] <quinnster> riotkittie: Yeah, I wasn't a fan of Gnome until I started using Ubuntu.  Now it's my #1.  I would like to be able to use XFCE from time to time--hopefully as a session.
[05:53] <riotkittie> no wait. ifconfig might not work for that. ehhh.
[05:53] <tom47> cmweb nx is a good alternative if you want to do things with gui ;like that
[05:53] <Taime1> it doesnt

That is sent to my computer for verifacation and if correct it sends the users file to the computer then the pc uses it. Upon shut down it send the folder back in write mode so that it saves their work, and saves HDD space.
[05:55] <Carutsu> i installed Thunderbird and i want to make it work with hotmail, but for some reason i install webmail, but i cannot configure my webmail account.... if i run thunderbird as a root i can... so i think are permisions problems, but i cannot figure what to do (i tried changing the /etc/mozlla-thunderbird permisions but didnt work)
[05:55] <mwalsh> alright guys, does anyone want to help me solve my woes and get ubuntu running perfectly by tonite?

[05:58] <tHeDuDe> :)
[05:58] <mwalsh> 1) my drives decide randomly when to mount on boot
[05:59] <mwalsh> 2) teh ubuntu isnt recognizing my dvd-r drives
[05:59] <mwalsh> 3) teh ubuntu isnt recognizing my usb headset
[05:59] <mwalsh> 4) teh ubuntu is giving me a mysterious failed to initialize HAL error at boot
[05:59] <Atomiku> mwalsh: Reinstall ubuntu
[05:59] <riotkittie> ooh. beyond my league.
[05:59] <cmweb> ok here is what i want to acheave. When they turn the computer on it will go to a dialog box asking then the user and password. That is sent to my computer for verifacation and if correct it sends the users file to the computer then the pc uses it.

[05:59] <Atomiku> if it still doesnt work buy another computer
[05:59] <riotkittie> Atomiku: reinstalling is the windows way :P
[05:59] <mwalsh> 5) already done atomiku
[06:00] <Atomiku> oh
[06:00] <Atomiku> its not ubuntus fault then
[06:00] <shatrat> mwalsh: they sound related
[06:00] <mwalsh> and yeah wen vista comes out im ditching this shit haha
[06:00] <Atomiku> it's your computer's fault
[06:00] <mwalsh> LOL
[06:00] <mwalsh> umm
[06:00] <Atomiku> Youre going to ditch ubuntu for vista?
[06:00] <shatrat> mwalsh: except the usb headset thing, thats just because usb headsets are trash
[06:00] <mwalsh> how is it my computers fault...
[06:00] <Atomiku> Get out.
[06:00] <tHeDuDe> what kinda pc?
[06:00] <mikejanssen> vista is such a pos

[06:01] <mwalsh> well can any of you actually help lol
[06:01] <riotkittie> vista. puke. :P
[06:01] <eggs> sorry sorry sorry
[06:01] <Atomiku> It sounds like somethings wrong with the computer though... if its sometimes not detecting the hardware
[06:01] <mwalsh> hey dude at least it works
[06:01] <mwalsh> no
[06:01] <mwalsh> thats not the cas
[06:01] <Atomiku> No?
[06:01] <shatrat> not really, no
[06:01] <mwalsh> the problem is obviously with ubuntu
[06:01] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: Is it actually giving x.x.x.x or did you change those?
[06:01] <riotkittie> vista works?
[06:01] <Atomiku> If you have tried reinstalling n stuff.... well...
[06:01] <eggs> so can you help me ?
[06:01] <mwalsh> yes, and so does xp
[06:01] <Atomiku> Have you tried windows or something?
[06:01] <mwalsh> duh
[06:01] <mwalsh> and it works perfectly
[06:01] <shatrat> the problem is the hal daemon
[06:01] <shatrat> and that usb headsets are trash
[06:01] <tHeDuDe> Those are some really odd issues.  Usually Ubuntu will at least boot up...
[06:02] <shatrat> I stand by my evaluation
[06:02] <nrdb> tonyyarusso: I changed those they appear to be correct to me.
[06:02] <mwalsh> well i am forced to shatrat because it wont recognize my nice sound card
[06:02] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: okay
[06:02] <tom47> mwalsh is it ony external hard drives that are intermittently recognised?
[06:02] <mwalsh> just ntfs ones
[06:02] <mikejanssen> any printer drivers for canon mp150 yet
[06:02] <mikejanssen> heh
[06:02] <mikejanssen> i have yet to find any
[06:02] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: Then that _should_ be normal output, if memory serves correctly.  You said you can't ping anything?  What about localhost?
[06:02] <wastrel> is there an app to edit .swf files ?
[06:02] <mwalsh> flashmx
[06:02] <riotkittie> if you truly believe Vista is guarenteed to be 100% trouble free...
[06:03] <ouroboros> Help!  I keep using hdparm to try to make my cdrom drive work better and the settings just keep going back by themselves!
[06:03] <mwalsh> ive used it
[06:03] <mwalsh> at least it recognizes my crap
[06:03] <riotkittie> is your soundcard showing in lspci ?
[06:03] <mwalsh> its much better at thaat then ubuntu
[06:03] <mikejanssen> mwalsh vista = bloated pos os
[06:03] <mwalsh> it says my sound card wont be supported till Q2 this year
[06:03] <tonyyarusso> Guys, Ubuntu support talk only here.  Vista etc. in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[06:03] <mikejanssen> xp on steroids
[06:03] <tom47> mwalsh are the internal hard drives reliably recognised?
[06:03] <eggs> sooo ?
[06:03] <mwalsh> ok mike know wat, if you can get ubuntu running like windows does, aka well, then ill agree with you
[06:03] <wastrel> linux lags in hw support. it's a fact.
[06:03] <nrdb> tonyyarusso: local host works fine
[06:03] <mwalsh> tom47: reliably? in wat way
[06:04] <wastrel> i'm bored of hearing about vista
[06:04] <mikejanssen> heh
[06:04] <shatrat> lol, you bought a soundblaster x-fi
[06:04] <mwalsh> im bored of hearing of ubuntu
[06:04] <shatrat> that explains why you also think vista is good
[06:04] <mikejanssen> im not having any troubles with ubuntu yet..just with my printer
[06:04] <mwalsh> shatrat, stop with the comments, you sound ignorant
[06:04] <mwalsh> i think my hardwares too new.
[06:04] <tom47> are they recoognised every time ... what i am trying to understand is it internal hard drives that are or are not intermittently recognised
[06:04] <shatrat> look whos talking
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: and 72.14.205.103 gives?
[06:04] <riotkittie> boys, boys.
[06:04] <mwalsh> tom47: they are also intermittently recognized
[06:05] <tom47> mwalsh ok ty
[06:05] <mwalsh> shatrat shut your fanboy mouth, back up your statements
[06:05] <HymnToLife> someone wants to get banned for trolling, methinks
[06:05] <shatrat> Moral victory
[06:05] <shatrat> I win
[06:05] <mwalsh> um... wow
[06:05] <mwalsh> are you kidding
[06:05] <mwalsh> watever im hear for tech support.
[06:05] <shatrat> Keep looking, this isnt tech support. Nobody is paid to do this.
[06:06] <endo602> vista sux

[06:08] <cmweb> Will nfs work ove windows as well
[06:08] <tom47> mwalsh i am thinking about it
[06:08] <shatrat> eggs: where did you install the nvidia driver from? It seems it isnt installed properly.
[06:08] <tom47> mwalsh but the intermittent bit i am afraid suggests to me a hardware issue
[06:08] <HymnToLife> cmweb, no, use Samba to share data with Windows
[06:09] <riotkittie> patience is a virtue
[06:09] <eggs> from synapitc package manager
[06:09] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: Just thought maybe a friend could lend one.  Anyway, does your ISP offer multiple phone numbers?  Do you also have Windows / MacOS, and if so, what happens with that?
[06:09] <shatrat> eggs: so right now you are using driver "nv"?
[06:09] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: Did you have to install a modem driver, or was it fine out of the box?
[06:09] <eggs> correct
[06:09] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: What did you use to set up the wvdial settings, etc?
[06:09] <tom47> mwalsh so onece again unyil we understand what thats about the other issues are non starters inho
[06:10] <shatrat> eggs: and if you change only that line to driver "nvidia" you can't start X?  Sounds like maybe you should use the LatestNvidia driver how to and reinstall
[06:11] <mwalsh> tom47: im moving back to windows, i dont care wat these people say, it just works better.
[06:11] <eggs> correct. i do ctrl alt backspace login change it restart x (restart computer) xorg crashes

[06:12] <nrdb> tonyyarusso: I only know one number, I don't have another OS here at the moment, I am using an external modem connect via a USB->Serial converter, and it worked OK on the first try, I used the command 'wvdialconf' to setup the '/etc/wvdail.conf' the added the phone number etc.
[06:12] <eggs> i do what the support page says and what i read on the fourms
[06:12] <wastrel> <3 wvdial
[06:12] <eggs> every time :(
[06:12] <mwalsh> the how-to on the nvidia drivers doesnt work properly eggs
[06:12] <mwalsh> just wait till a real knowledgable perosn comes on theyll help you
[06:13] <riotkittie> have you tried googling for ubuntu and your specific hardware? or checking the forums?
[06:13] <eggs> i have been trying to get this working for the last 2 weeks
[06:13] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: When you say it worked OK on the first try, do you mean that wvdialconf reported no errors, or that you've been able to connect before?
[06:13] <tHeDuDe> Isn't there an open source nvidia driver?
[06:13] <mwalsh> eggs just go back to windows.
[06:13] <eggs> no way hosay
[06:13] <shatrat> eggs: Personally I use Method 2 from this page, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_Nvidia_Edgy , and my friend uses the repo linked in the driver part of this how-to and it works for him. http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/BerylOnEdgy
[06:13] <eggs> im on drapper
[06:14] <eggs> i tried the edgy one too
[06:14] <eggs> i have even re-installed ubuntu to see if maybe i got something wrong the first time
[06:15] <wastrel> is there an editor for .swf files available for linux?
[06:15] <tHeDuDe> Maybe don't install the binary driver
[06:15] <mwalsh> eggs. the OS just DOESNT WORK.
[06:15] <shatrat> eggs: oh, didnt know you were on dapper.  not sure how that effects the driver install process exactly, other than a different kernel version
[06:15] <shatrat> why is that kid still here?
[06:15] <eggs> mwalsh shhh please
[06:15] <riotkittie> mwalsh: if you find it that bad, why are you still here? if you dont like it, you dont like it and that's fine but please bash it elsewhere

[06:16] <eggs> anyway ... so you recommend i go to nvidia's site and get drivers from there ?
[06:16] <shatrat> just a kid wanting attention
[06:17] <nrdb> tonyyarusso: that wvdialconf found the modem and reported no errors, it did say that a rather fast connection was OK 460800 to the modem, the modem connected at 9600 to the internet, maybe I should slow that down a bit ?
[06:17] <HymnToLife> eggs, no

[06:23] <optical> i want to use scaling
[06:23] <eggs> because i got fed up with windows

[06:23] <bef> hi can anybody tell me the best way to setup my iPod on Ubuntu?
[06:24] <eggs> it is really mwalsh
[06:24] <tonyyarusso> !ipod | bef
[06:24] <ubotu> bef: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[06:24] <mwalsh> bef: openSUSE has a nice itunes thing i think
[06:24] <shatrat> optical: oh.  Theres a daemon that manages that but I forgot the name of it.
[06:24] <cmweb> # Is this machine able to authenticate users. Both PDC and BDC
[06:24] <cmweb> # must have this setting enabled. If you are the BDC you must

[06:24] <eggs> my computer never has run faster with any windows OS, 2000,xp,98
[06:24] <rellik> when opening a program like mplayer from the command-line, how can I change which monitor (using xinerama) it goes to?
[06:24] <cmweb> What is PDC and BDC
[06:24] <wastrel> anyone know if there's a .swf editor for linux
[06:24] <mwalsh> eggs: but you dont have to spend weeks installing drivers
[06:25] <CorpseFeeder> What does this mean? The filename "NAME-DESKTOP" indicates that this file is of type "desktop configuration file". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "x-directory/smb-share". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system. I can't work out how to browse with smb.
[06:25] <wastrel> primary domain controller  at a guess.  what is this samba?
[06:25] <cmweb> yes
[06:25] <eggs> but i like spending weeks on getting drivers working and a better performing machine than a less performing machine and already working drivers
[06:25] <mwalsh> corpsefeeder: super mario brothers isnt normally used for browsing
[06:25] <mwalsh> eggs: you wouldnt know the difference running cs
[06:26] <Xcalibre> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2834/
[06:26] <eggs> oh yes i would.
[06:26] <CorpseFeeder> ok, samba then
[06:26] <tarelerulz> Have any of you installed Ubuntu with out  cd , floppy or from network drive .  used and it did not work . http://marc.herbert.free.fr/linux/win2linstall.html#ubuntu
[06:26] <eggs> performance is key in cs
[06:26] <tHeDuDe> wastrel >> you might be able to find something at freshmeat.  I remember seeing an app to edit .swf a couple years ago but it looked pretty rough
[06:26] <mwalsh> eggs: in 1.6?
[06:26] <eggs> cz
[06:26] <mwalsh> eggs: taht game is old dude, it shoudlnt matter much, even my old 5200 ultra could run it no problem
[06:26] <mwalsh> eggs: what CAL are you anyway
[06:27] <eggs> im not CAL
[06:27] <CorpseFeeder> does anyone know how to browse files/folders on the network with samba?
[06:27] <Xcalibre> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2834/
[06:27] <mwalsh> eggs: so why do you care so much lol...
[06:27] <eggs> because i do
[06:27] <bef> mwalsh: i'm an ubuntu user, not a suse user
[06:27] <eggs> whats with the 20 questions ?
[06:27] <tarelerulz> it says it can't mount my partition . Did I miss something like srinking ntfs  and make a ext3 in the free space
[06:27] <mwalsh> eggs: you just proved that youre a noob, is all :)
[06:27] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: did you try the Network Servers thing in the Places menu?
[06:28] <tonyyarusso> !noob | mwalsh
[06:28] <ubotu> mwalsh: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[06:28] <mwalsh> ha thanks
[06:28] <nrdb> tonyyarusso: any ideas what to try now?
[06:28] <CorpseFeeder> shatrat: yes. I can't get it to work

[06:28] <Xcalibre> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2834/
[06:28] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: Does it show nothing at all?
[06:28] <eggs> maybe when i come back i wont have to talk with mwalsh
[06:28] <eggs> ty for your attempt to help shatrat
[06:29] <mwalsh> eggs: dude just give up, you obviously suck at cs anyway.
[06:29] <shatrat> eggs: hang in there, the nvidia drivers are quite good if you can get them to work.
[06:29] <Xcalibre> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2834/
[06:29] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: Well, not ideas directly from me.  However, I do know that USB modems have come up before, so I would recommend hitting up the wiki, forums, and mailing list with a computer that can connect and see if you find anyone with similar issues.
[06:29] <CorpseFeeder> shatrat: it shows windows network icon, and if I click it, it then shows the workgroup name, and after that is a list of computers on the network.. but that is as far as I can get.
[06:29] <mwalsh> THe ubuntu community was so much cooler around 5.

[06:30] <riotkittie> oh man.
[06:30] <Xcalibre> yeh
[06:30] <Xcalibre> i been waiting for help
[06:30] <theherbalizer> wow whats going on in here?
[06:30] <nrdb> tonyyarusso: thanks for trying
[06:30] <bef> If you're dead and still slightly warm, then sure.. but if you've gone cold then, no thanks  buddy.
[06:30] <tonyyarusso> nrdb: good luck

[06:30] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: try hitting F5 to refresh it
[06:30] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: I know it wont always let me explore the networked server the first time I click it
[06:30] <bef> CorpseFeeder sounds like the kind of person who would help you out there, Xcalibre ;) ;)
[06:30] <tHeDuDe> wastrel >> take a look at this: http://www.swftools.org/
[06:31] <Xcalibre> looks like CorpseFeeder needs help himself.
[06:31] <shatrat> I think bef meant with the "F me dead" part
[06:31] <CorpseFeeder> shatrat: refreshing doesn't help
[06:31] <Xcalibre> dw
[06:31] <Xcalibre> done
[06:32] <tonyyarusso> Xcalibre: Shouldn't the package name be apache2?  Not sure if it matters.
[06:32] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: Does it give some kind of an error?
[06:32] <david_> Can anybody tell my why the avahi-daemon init script doesn't seem to work on my Edgy?  It prints nothing on "start", prints [fail]  on "stop", and doesn't start the daemon
[06:32] <CorpseFeeder> shatrat: yes.
[06:32] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: Please elaborate sir.
[06:33] <wastrel> as i download yet another file from the web, i again curse the incredibly crappy design of the gnome file save dialogs
[06:33] <wastrel> it's almost as if they intentionally wanted it to be difficult to choose a destination directory
[06:33] <riotkittie> oh yea, those dialogues are hideous.
[06:34] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: Could you post the error, or post a pastebin link if its more than a line or two
[06:34] <oldmanstan> does anyone have any idea what a process called "watchdog" is doing on my computer? root user owns it, i've never noticed it before today but it coulda been there all along
[06:34] <oldmanstan> it has no man page
[06:34] <CorpseFeeder> shatrat: elaboration is here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2836/
[06:35] <mwalsh> sounds like keylogger/spyware
[06:35] <gecko_> hey all
[06:35] <mwalsh> howdy.
[06:35] <gecko_> ok.. when i change my sources.list from edgy to fiesty is there a reason that it wants me to upgrade from 6.10 to 6.10 again?
[06:35] <tonyyarusso> !info watchdog
[06:35] <ubotu> watchdog: software watchdog. In component universe, is extra. Version 5.2.6-2 (edgy), package size 57 kB, installed size 248 kB
[06:36] <mwalsh> gecko: no
[06:36] <mwalsh> gecko: ts because fiesty isnt out yet
[06:36] <mwalsh> its an imaginary upgrade
[06:36] <mwalsh> i would jsut keep the sources for edgy for now
[06:36] <tonyyarusso> gecko_: And you misspelled feisty
[06:36] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: hold on a sec, thinking
[06:36] <gecko_> oh..that might be why then
[06:36] <kikabola> hello all
[06:37] <gecko_> tonyyarusso: i went by what i know in english  i before e except after C lol
[06:37] <kikabola> is there a way to notify a mirror that their files are corrupt?
[06:37] <oldmanstan> oh ok good, so it's a feature not a bad thing, thx
[06:37] <gecko_> there is a feisty 7.04 Alpha out..and u can upgrade to is mwalsh
[06:37] <tonyyarusso> gecko_: good point
[06:37] <gecko_> this*
[06:37] <mwalsh> gecko: so upgrade to it, otherwise dont use the source list... and i wuldnt use the alpha, hell 6.10 still doesnt work properly
[06:37] <tonyyarusso> gecko_: We can chat about alphas in #ubuntu+1 instead of here though, so nobody gets confused
[06:38] <IamEthos> okay
[06:38] <gecko_> ok.
[06:38] <jadacyrus> whats the difference between a metacity theme and a gtk2 theme?
[06:38] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder: It seems like you arent havent the same problem I had with samba.  I found a thread that seemed like your problem on the forums though.  Maybe something there that can help you.
[06:39] <CorpseFeeder> shatrat: it's entirely possible that I may have deleted something from my ubuntu system which it needs to use samba file sharing. This may be why it does not appear to know how to browse the other computers on the network, giving the error instead...
[06:39] <shatrat> CorpseFeeder:  you can try "sudo apt-get install samba smbfs"
[06:39] <Sk8aelf> anybody familiar with the LAMP portion of ubuntu server  would could answer a few question for me ?
[06:39] <Tomcat_> jadacyrus: afaik, gtk2 is the look&feel of buttons and the things inside the window... metacity defines window borders, window behavior...
[06:39] <jadacyrus> Tomcat_: thanks
[06:40] <tonyyarusso> Sk8aelf: maybe.  What kinds of questions?
[06:40] <HymnToLife> Sk8aelf, just ask, we'll answer if we can
[06:40] <_tcc> I am trying to install VmWare on my machine.
[06:40] <Sk8aelf> tonyy::  lamp is installed  static ip is set  phpmyadmin is loaded i can go right to the apache default page ... my trouble atm is how do i create mysql users thru the terminal
[06:41] <_tcc> The setup asks for a directory
[06:41] <_tcc> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[06:41] <_tcc> kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] 
[06:41] <_tcc> I am not sure where this is kept.
[06:41] <shatrat> _tcc: its in /usr/src/linux-headers-biglongversionnumber-version
[06:42] <tonyyarusso> Sk8aelf: I think it's something like mysql-adduser.  It's built into mysql, as a command similar to that at least.
[06:42] <HymnToLife> _tcc, /usr/src/$(uname -r)/include
[06:42] <tonyyarusso> _tcc: If you install either the full kernel source or kernel headers those sorts of things usually happen automatically, but you don't have them installed by default.
[06:42] <HymnToLife> linux-headers-$(uname -r), sorry
[06:42] <Sk8aelf> atm i cant even log into phpmyadmin ....   somewhere i missed the username/pw entry  durin the install ...  im tryin to not have to load a gui
[06:43] <_tcc> The path "/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.17/include" is a kernel header file
[06:43] <_tcc> directory, but it does not contain the file "linux/version.h" as expected.
[06:44] <crimsun> you need linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[06:44] <crimsun> not linux-source-2.6.17
[06:44] <_tcc> oh
[06:44] <shatrat> _tcc: I think you need /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.17-10-generic/include/linux
[06:45] <shatrat> _tcc: different version possibly.  Theres a version.h in there
[06:45] <wastrel> i am compiling a program

[06:50] <cmweb> where can i find a sample logon.cmd
[06:50] <axion_> i noticed thunar-0.8.0 is now in the main repo, but apt still wants to install 0.4.0svn after an update
[06:50] <mikejanssen> is there a way to get the terminal locked onto the desktop background?
[06:50] <mikejanssen> i wanna make my background awesomeness
[06:50] <dabaR> Sk8aelf: there is also a #mysql, but if you use mysql -u root, it will enter
[06:50] <mikejanssen> heh
[06:51] <boni_> Can anyone tell me that if I install something on my Dapper box and if the file contains the binary in /usr/bin and i want it to be displayed under applications how do i do it??
[06:51] <Pie-rate> are there any optimizations i can do for my dual core opteron? i don't care how complex and difficult they are, i'll do just about anything to get it running faster.
[06:51] <terapicodave> mikejanssen: what does it mean ... you want the terminal to be the background? or to be transparent?
[06:51] <Sk8aelf> dabaR  ::   ty =)
[06:51] <mikejanssen> transparent..on the background
[06:51] <mikejanssen> = X
[06:51] <dabaR> boni_: use the menu editor, it is under apps>accessories
[06:52] <terapicodave> mikejanssen: that's in the profiles in the menu for the terminal

[06:52] <dabaR> axion_: that is an answer to your question.
[06:52] <Dere2> hello?
[06:53] <axion_> ubotu: thanks...i tried feisty yesterday and got a kernel panic upon reboot so i didnt know what to do and reverted back until feisty is out of beta
[06:53] <boni_> dabaR and shatrat: Thanks let me try it out
[06:53] <dabaR> !hi > Dere2
[06:53] <Kristov> hi
[06:53] <shatrat> boni_: Youre welcome
[06:53] <Dere2> hi, how do you fix the issue where when you scroll it laggs/hello
[06:53] <dabaR> axion_: you can also compile the thunar, if you want, or use the edgy one(0.4.0)
[06:54] <HymnToLife> Dere2, install proper drivers for your graphics card
[06:54] <dabaR> Dere2: is this in a particular program, or everywhere?
[06:54] <sparr> how can i find out which files reside in the RAM half of a livecd+ram unionfs?
[06:54] <axion_> dabaR: i did try to compile it, but it needed newer libs than are in apt for edgy also...and i even tried doing them but they needed newer core linux libs so i gave up
[06:54] <aleka> I am trying to download freenx and trying to get the repo as recommended on the ubuntu page..http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx/. I can not see the entries for apt sources thou
[06:54] <Dere2> i have and ATI x1300 and i downloaded the drivers, but i dont now how to install them
[06:55] <dabaR> axion_: tough.
[06:55] <wastrel> sigh
[06:55] <HymnToLife> !ati | Dere2
[06:55] <ubotu> Dere2: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:55] <dabaR> what's up wastrel ?
[06:55] <Dere2> ok, thx
[06:55] <wastrel> dabaR:  linux is being bratty
[06:56] <Flannel> aleka: what?  you need to put that in your sources.list
[06:56] <aleka> dabaR: yes I visited that page and tht is where I got the link for the repo from
[06:56] <dabaR> aleka: do you use edgy?
[06:56] <aleka> Flannel: the page tells you the package is called [serverpackage]  "freenx" and there is no such thing under the current repo I have.. and I have enabled extrA REPOSITORIES
[06:57] <aleka> YES DABAR
[06:57] <aleka> sorry for the CAPS, mistake
[06:57] <Flannel> aleka: capslock ;)  pastebin your sources.list please
[06:58] <_`XeOn_> how do i mount a windows partition ?

[06:59] <_`XeOn_> sorry about that
[06:59] <ssmasud> can anybody help me with the installation of NS2??
[06:59] <Flannel> aleka: you haven't added seveas's repo yet, you'll need to add it
[07:00] <dabaR> I can not find freenx in the edgy repos, only in the dapper ones:-/
[07:00] <Jaymz> why does apt-get remove gaim also prompt me to remove ubuntu-desktop
[07:00] <aleka> Flannel: that is my question.. I am at the page.. but can not see an entry that can go into the sources.list.. should I just assume and copy the url with proper formating as others in the list?
[07:00] <tonyyarusso> !ubuntu-desktop | Jaymz
[07:00] <ubotu> Jaymz: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[07:00] <dabaR> Jaymz: ubuntu-desktop is a list of dependencies of which gaim is one
[07:01] <Flannel> Jaymz: you only have "ubuntu-desktop" (the whole thing, including all parts) installed with GAIM installed, but it's only a meta package.
[07:01] <boni_> bazaR: I have successfully edited my menu.... Now could you tell me suppose I write a package which a user installs then if I want it executable to come under the menu then do I have to make links of my executable ???? I mean how do I automatically add it where do I need to make the links of my executable??
[07:01] <aleka> this is the link Seveas repo gives [http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx] 
[07:01] <Jaymz> Thanks all :)
[07:02] <tarelerulz> You all should really check this out http://www.dgp.toronto.edu/~ravin/
[07:02] <Flannel> aleka: right, what are you confused about?
[07:02] <Flannel> tarelerulz: #ubuntu-offtopic is that way ==>
[07:02] <AmbientMst1> Hey, if I had an external hard drive hooked up while I was loading Ubuntu, would it (Ubuntu) detect the hd?
[07:03] <Marupa> Hi, I've got a USB video adapter, was wondering what the entries in dmesg mean...
[07:03] <dabaR> AmbientMst1: likely
[07:03] <dabaR> AmbientMst1: even if you plug it in later
[07:03] <tarelerulz> It is cool and I just thought someone might find it cool
[07:03] <tarelerulz> It could be the future for us all . Like the way beryl is now
[07:04] <AmbientMst1> Ah
[07:04] <AmbientMst1> Would that cause it to fail starting?
[07:04] <AmbientMst1> Cause that's what happened in my case, I think
[07:04] <valehru> Is there a way I can use wget to download a file that needs a password to access the directory?
[07:04] <AmbientMst1> I don't think it's a problem with my SATA main drive
[07:04] <HymnToLife> beryl is definitely not _my_ future
[07:04] <dabaR> AmbientMst1: you mean being mounted when you plug it in?
[07:04] <Flannel> aleka: if you follow the links a few deep (either edgy or dapper -seveas), then click the link on that page (freenx), you get this page, with instructions on adding: http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx/dists/dapper-seveas/freenx/
[07:05] <tarelerulz> speaking of beryl is  one of the cool thing I have seen in graphicaly speaking.  It put linux on part with vistra and the new mac stuff
[07:05] <aleka> Flannel: my confusion was as to the formating of the entry in sources.list>> should I copy the url given on the page and make something like this >> deb http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx / edgy main
[07:05] <Flannel> tarelerulz: that may be, but the point is #ubuntu is support oriented, #ubuntu-offtopic is for general chatter
[07:05] <boni_> !beryl
[07:05] <AmbientMst1> (22:04:58) dabaR: AmbientMst1: you mean being mounted when you plug it in?
[07:05] <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
[07:05] <AmbientMst1> Yeah
[07:06] <aleka> Flannel: I was following the edgy link which was bringing me right back to the main page
[07:06] <AmbientMst1> Actually
[07:06] <AmbientMst1> No
[07:06] <tarelerulz> Sorry for being off topic
[07:06] <eggs> i wish i could get opengl working
[07:06] <AmbientMst1> I'm just talking about having it plugged in when it's booting and it fails to start
[07:06] <AmbientMst1> I have no OS or anything installed
[07:06] <AmbientMst1> It's just a mass storage
[07:06] <Marupa> http://paste.leonerd.org.uk/?show=382
[07:07] <Flannel> aleka: hmm, that mirror seems to be lacking an edgy section, see this page: http://seveas.imbrandon.com/dists/edgy-seveas/
[07:07] <aleka> the edgy page says the following packages are available: but doesn't list a thing..
[07:08] <dabaR> aleka: yup, I saw that too. there are other mirrors listed, though, and they have some packages listed, but not freenx in the edggy repos, only in the deapper ones.
[07:08] <Marupa> any ideas for that device?
[07:08] <dabaR> AmbientMst1: so, if the external hd is unplugged, you get your system booted, but if it is plugged in it fails to boot?
[07:09] <aleka> hmm.. would you reckon, changing dapper to edgy in the sources list would work, or would that be pointing to a non-existent mirror?
[07:09] <dabaR> Marupa: I can only suggest google.com/linux and enter that device make and model
[07:09] <Flannel> aleka: it'd probably point to a non existent repository, correct.
[07:09] <tarelerulz> I have mobility Radeon 7500  could that run something like beryl
[07:10] <Marupa> that didn't show anything, dabaR.
[07:10] <dabaR> tarelerulz: you should check out the beryl page. and http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Video_Card_Support_Under_XGL
[07:10] <dabaR> Marupa: nothing at all? try just google.
[07:10] <dabaR> add ubuntu to the search keywords
[07:11] <aleka> and the other mirrors seem to be lacking the freenx package (in their edgy repos)
[07:11] <aleka> i guess I can always try and get it directly from nomachine's website
[07:12] <Marupa> Still not finding anything useful, dabaR.
[07:12] <cmweb> What is my domain on a LAN
[07:12] <cmweb> is it the computer name?
[07:13] <dabaR> cmweb: what is asking you that?
[07:13] <tom47> aleka .... quote .... #  Dennis Kaarsemaker Says:
[07:13] <tom47> October 20th, 2006 at 13:46
[07:13] <tom47> Eamonn: I will definitely not add FreeNX, since developmentof it has come to a complete halt. I will probably add the 2x.com open source version of NX (libs, client, server) though, but not in the really-near-future. (Maybe in early november)
[07:13] <tarelerulz> does not see like  beryl would work well with my hardware
[07:13] <cmweb> What the domain of my computer is im trying to test my samba config
[07:13] <midgetg0at> Any ideas how to get a legal sized pdf to actually print legal sized?
[07:13] <P> hi
[07:14] <dabaR> cmweb: the windows domain, or a web domain? show me where you got that from.
[07:14] <aleka> On a more serious matter I have having problems with.. I just got this external drive[formatted ext3] , USB and put an entry for it in my fstab so I can RW to it as a regular user
[07:14] <dabaR> midgetg0at: in what program?
[07:14] <aleka> rebooted, the mountpoint is there but empty
[07:14] <Flannel> midgetg0at: get legal sized paper?
[07:14] <midgetg0at> just cuts off the last couple inches.
[07:14] <midgetg0at> heh, yip, got the paper ;)
[07:14] <cmweb> dabar, windows domain. Im trying to login via a win 98 in my bros room but i dont got the correct domain
[07:14] <aleka> mount is not showing it as being mounted
[07:15] <boni_> !beryl
[07:15] <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
[07:15] <midgetg0at> it's refusing to print past the normal letter height...although it goes to the bottom w/o margin.
[07:15] <dabaR> cmweb: did you set up a samba server, or are you just connecting to your windows computers with a client?
[07:15] <P> 
[07:15] <ssmasud> how can I remove a package from the apt command.....??
[07:15] <midgetg0at> Printer: s530d, setup as a S500
[07:15] <cmweb> dabar, i think i have it set up, but if youd like to look over the config you can
[07:15] <dabaR> ssmasud: sudo apt-get remove
[07:15] <ssmasud> thanks dabar
[07:15] <P> wow, lot of people in here
[07:15] <dabaR> cmweb: sure, pastebin.com
[07:15] <Flannel> ssmasud: you may be interested in the --purge flag, which removes config as well
[07:16] <dabaR> midgetg0at: you should tell us what program you are printing from, help> about, or so
[07:16] <aleka> can anyone take a stab at the problem (mounting a USB drive) i posted?.. if anyone is interested, I can put my fdisk -l and fstab in the pastebin
[07:16] <AmbientMst1> dabaR: Only for booting Ubuntu
[07:16] <midgetg0at> whatever the default ubuntu pdf viewer is...sec...
[07:17] <dabaR> AmbientMst1: so, if the external hd is unplugged, you get your system booted, but if it is plugged in it fails to boot?
[07:17] <midgetg0at> Evince 0.6.1
[07:17] <AmbientMst1> Only when I try to boot Ubuntu
[07:17] <kingrayray> hey, my nvidia driver isnt working, i just reverted to nv. when i try reinstalling the driver it doesn't work..
[07:17] <kingrayray> er, the reinstall works but the driver does not
[07:18] <midgetg0at> bah, when it gets to the normal letter height in printing, it pauses for a second.....then prints one more line then pushes the doc out
[07:18] <tarelerulz> if you vitrally mound img file can you run some linux iso  like that so you can install linux with out have to burn a cd
[07:18] <AmbientMst1> Oh I was wondering about that
[07:18] <AmbientMst1> I don't think so
[07:18] <AmbientMst1> It's not in your boot sequence
[07:18] <AmbientMst1> And you can't boot it in your OS
[07:18] <AmbientMst1> So I don't think so
[07:19] <kingrayray> http://pastebin.com/866789
[07:19] <dabaR> midgetg0at: I can not see a page size option in the evince print dialog.
[07:19] <midgetg0at> On the "Print setup dialog > Page Setup" paper type/paper source/output tray/two sided are grayed out...
[07:19] <tarelerulz> I am wanting to install linux so bad it hurt ,but I don't have a cd and it late at night so store closed
[07:19] <ssmasud> NS2 installation issues....can anybody deal with it????
[07:19] <midgetg0at> i think "paper type" would be the page size dabar
[07:19] <dabaR> AmbientMst1: what else, if you try to boot windows it works?
[07:19] <Pokesomi> hey all
[07:19] <AmbientMst1> Yes
[07:19] <midgetg0at> but it's grayed :(
[07:19] <dabaR> midgetg0at: nope, it is glossy, photo...
[07:20] <Pokesomi> I would like to ask a question if i may
[07:20] <dabaR> !ask
[07:20] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:20] <midgetg0at> so, this program is coded so poorly that it doesnt take into account paper/document size?
[07:20] <AmbientMst1> The next time I tried it, it said the boot disc could not be read
[07:21] <Pokesomi> Is there a way to use the live cd from version 5.10 to inspect and check for error on the primary hard disk drive?
[07:21] <midgetg0at> any pdf viewer you can recommend that'll print legal size?
[07:21] <AmbientMst1> Lol, legal size is a funny term
[07:21] <AmbientMst1> STOP! You can't print that big! IT'S ILLEGAL
[07:21] <AmbientMst1> Ahem
[07:21] <dabaR> tarelerulz: well, you are in luck, my friend. http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/01/17/about-the-ubuntu-installer-for-windows/
[07:21] <midgetg0at> stupid mortgage aps. just gimme two LETTER size sheets
[07:21] <Pokesomi> i am running the live cd cause the hard drive seems to be screwed
[07:22] <grndslm> can i make a certain file or two in /usr/sbin/, like /usr/sbin/vpnc executable by a regular user such as myself and not a super user???
[07:22] <Pokesomi> how can i do it from the live cd
[07:22] <Pokesomi> or is it possible
[07:22] <dabaR> tarelerulz: back up important data, it is beta software
[07:22] <tonyyarusso> Sk8aelf: I'd offer more, but I'm an LA person, not MP ;)
[07:22] <Joor> hi
[07:22] <Sk8aelf> tony...bad joke   =p
[07:22] <AmbientMst1> tonyyarusso: No you're just Tony

[07:23] <AmbientMst1> ;P
[07:23] <tarelerulz> I have use ntfs drives and they work well
[07:23] <Sk8aelf> well actually with the knowledge i have gained today  i am almost done configuring this damn thing to get ti working
[07:23] <tarelerulz> never had anything go wrong
[07:23] <Pokesomi> i think i need to explain a little bit
[07:23] <AmbientMst1> !explain

[07:25] <Pokesomi> its what came on the restore cd not my choice
[07:25] <dabaR> midgetg0at: acroread can not print in Ubuntu, I think, but try.
[07:25] <tonyyarusso> Joor: archive. or a mirror?
[07:25] <midgetg0at> ok, thanks dabar
[07:25] <dabaR> Joor: show the /etc/apt/sources.list file on pastebin.com, please.

[07:26] <Pokesomi> me??
[07:26] <aryan> yes i have
[07:26] <aryan> i have read the ubuntu wiki
[07:26] <tarelerulz> This might sound dumb ,but where to you get the ubuntu .exe from
[07:26] <midgetg0at> k, because their guides have worked for tons of people
[07:26] <aryan> and tried to follow instructions but i get errors
[07:27] <midgetg0at> ubuntu exe?
[07:27] <midgetg0at> nice nice

[07:27] <kingrayray> http://pastebin.com/866789
[07:27] <Pokesomi> i am sorry but if someone could help me via pm that would help alot.  I am getting confused as to who is talking to who
[07:27] <cmweb> DABAR: http://rafb.net/p/Anqbkt27.html
[07:27] <aryan> yes could someone help me install flash through pm?
[07:27] <bulmer> Pokesomi: you prefix the responses with their nick name
[07:27] <grndslm> can i make a certain file or two in /usr/sbin/, like /usr/sbin/vpnc executable by a regular user such as myself and not a super user???
[07:27] <aryan> that would make it a heck of alot easier on me, im a noob to ubuntu and have been an ms user for 10 years, can someone please help me out
[07:28] <midgetg0at> aryan, i think macromedia puts a cap on flash installs for the month. they may have gone over and you could have to wait until february 1st
[07:28] <dabaR> cmweb: you are not using a domain, you are using a workgroup, if there is only a domain option in the program you are setting up, use the workgroup there, or leave it empty, if there is a workgroup option
[07:28] <bulmer> grndslm: look at the permission of /usr/sbin and that should give you a clue
[07:28] <tonyyarusso> aryan: have you already read those links?
[07:28] <aryan> yes tony i have been to those links previousley and read thim
[07:28] <aryan> im telling you ive been doing my head in with this allllllll day lol
[07:28] <tonyyarusso> aryan: Have you tried their instructions, or do you not understand part of them?
[07:28] <tonyyarusso> aryan: (Specifics good)
[07:28] <cmweb> DABAR: Ok thanks let me try it
[07:29] <dabaR> AmbientMst1: did you try just plugging in the device while ubuntu is booted already
[07:29] <ic56> grndslm: yes, you can.  but if those executables are currently set to be only executable by root, opening up the perms will create a security hole.  It's your box, so it's your choice.
[07:29] <aryan> tony check your pm
[07:29] <midgetg0at> no one liked my mm joke? :(
[07:29] <_goofy_> when ever i boot up my computer i get a remote login box..... how do i get rid of this..... im not trying to log in to a remote computer
[07:29] <aryan> tonyyarusso:check your pm
[07:30] <Joor> this is the link for my sources.list http://pastebin.com/866799
[07:30] <aryan> tonyyarusso:anyone?
[07:30] <tonyyarusso> aryan: on it - read yours :)
[07:30] <midgetg0at> dabaR: gpdf is doing the same thing. It gets to where a letter sized paper would be, pauses for about 2 seconds, prints one more line and then spits it out....
[07:30] <Joor> can anyone tell me whats wrong i kow have duplicate
[07:30] <midgetg0at> and the paper size for gpdf is set to legal.
[07:31] <cmweb> DABAR: it says it cant find the server
[07:31] <grndslm> ic56:  thanks, i just don't see how anybody's gonna be able to see that i'm running vpn under a less privileged user
[07:31] <grndslm> bulmer:  permissions say that "other" users have ability to execute, but it's not working
[07:32] <midgetg0at> grrrrrr, even if i print it bottom- up. it's cutting off about 3"
[07:32] <grndslm> bulmer:  prolly because it's in /sbin
[07:32] <bulmer> grndslm: execute does not mean == you have write access to that dir
[07:32] <dabaR> midgetg0at: and you changed the paper size?
[07:32] <midgetg0at> of course.
[07:33] <Pie-rate> are there any optimizations i can do for my dual core opteron? i don't care about the difficulty level, i'd like to learn to compile my own kernel if thats what it takes
[07:33] <cmweb> DABAR: It could not find a server to validate from
[07:33] <dabaR> cmweb: what exactly are you doing right now?
[07:33] <arrenlex> dabaR: That is the scariest thing I have ever, ever seen.
[07:33] <dabaR> arrenlex: hehe
[07:33] <_goofy_> when ever i boot up my computer i get a remote login box..... how do i get rid of this..... im not trying to log in to a remote computer
[07:33] <dabaR> why, anyhow?
[07:34] <dabaR> _goofy_: does the ubuntu desktop load?
[07:34] <ic56> grndsl: people logged in to your machine can always see what programs you are running.  People on your network can guess what apps you are running by looking at the port numbers of the packets you send and receive.  But this isn't the issue.  If the executable is restricted, it means that ordinary users would be able to abuse it to bypass security.
[07:34] <Joor> so anyone understand why I get 403 forbidden when trying to get updates from archive.ubuntu.com ?? this is my sources.list http://pastebin.com/866799
[07:34] <cmweb> dabar im trying to get it to login and use the profile on my computer for his computer. i have the account built on my computer and according to the conf. i can log in as i would on here
[07:34] <_goofy_> no thats he 1st thing that cmes up
[07:34] <arrenlex> dabaR: I have had nightmares about "Installshield Wizard will help you install Linux" so many times >__< usually followed by a dancing Bill Gates holding up a shrunken penguin head touting a "Winux" banner.
[07:34] <ic56> grndsl: anyway, what are the perms on the executable right now?  do an ls -l on the file and tell us.
[07:34] <tarelerulz> Well, it that all works dabaR I will tell you and I will be playing with linux on this dell laptop
[07:35] <dabaR> tarelerulz: back up important data if possible, it is still in beta
[07:36] <dabaR> cmeme: you are trying to set up a samba domain server for windows computers, so there are same logins on all your windows comps?
[07:36] <dabaR> cmeme: sorry
[07:36] <dabaR> cmweb: ^
[07:36] <cmweb> dabar: Yes.
[07:36] <Joor> so anyone understand why I get 403 forbidden when trying to get updates from archive.ubuntu.com ?? this is my sources.list http://pastebin.com/866799
[07:37] <dabaR> cmweb: then your samba conf needs to look way different, and that is not easy, I find. You can search for the samba book on google, it has instructions. there is a #samba(kinda non-responsive, I find).

[07:38] <Joor> I dont think i will get answers
[07:38] <Joor> well
[07:39] <Joor> does 403 forbidden mean I am blocked from archive.ubuntu.com ?
[07:40] <dabaR> Joor: try http://pastebin.com/866811 as your sources.list
[07:40] <dabaR> and a bottle of patience ;) hehe
[07:40] <Taime1> i installed a router, and all of a sudden, my internet connection is much slower
[07:40] <Joor> ok will try
[07:40] <Taime1> can anyone help?
[07:40] <kingrayray> http://pastebin.com/866789 nvidia glx issue? :/
[07:41] <dabaR> cmweb: it is set up to be just one of the workgroup comptuers in the mshome workgroup
[07:42] <dabaR> Taime1: ping your router. see whether there are dropped packets.
[07:42] <Taime1> okay
[07:42] <dabaR> _goofy_: I am not sure, is there exact text that you have from the whole login box?
[07:43] <dabaR> hacosta_: what is the insatll CD, the desktop, or the alternate one?
[07:43] <ic56>  /whois grndslm
[07:43] <zoexii> heya!  if I need to find a file called lynx.cfg, and i don't know where it is, how do i find it from the command line?
[07:43] <kingrayray> http://pastebin.com/866789 anybody seen that before?
[07:43] <dabaR> !find lynx.cfg
[07:43] <Taime1> daBar, there dont seem to be
[07:44] <ubotu> File lynx.cfg found in lynx, lynx-cur
[07:44] <Taime1> oops
[07:44] <dabaR> zoexii: locate lynx.cfg, or dpkg -l lynx.
[07:44] <hacosta_> dabaR: the install CD
[07:45] <dabaR> kingrayray: google seen it... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=339817&page=3
[07:45] <sphorbis> problem: whenever my computer is idle, the fan starts blowing really hard, and i think cpu activity is way up, any ideas why?
[07:45] <kingrayray> hmm i'll check it out thx
[07:45] <dabaR> hacosta_: what version of Ubuntu?
[07:45] <Taime1> dabaR: , thanks, i have been trying to figure tat out forever
[07:45] <dabaR> Taime1: which?
[07:45] <hacosta_> uhh.. latest stable one
[07:45] <Taime1> tab
[07:46] <ic56> zoexii: assuming you know nothing about the file, the slow but sure way is to use the "find" command.   "find / -name lynx.cfg" will search the entire system and report any files that have that name.
[07:46] <dabaR> Taime1: oh, I forgot I did that:)
[07:46] <dabaR> hacosta_: so edgy? there is no install, there are desktop and alternate CDs.
[07:46] <Taime1> its cool, i knew there was a way
[07:46] <Madpilot> sphorbis, are you running a system monitor to check CPU usage? If you've got a screensaver starting, most of them are fairly CPU intensive
[07:46] <Taime1> but my router doesnt seem to be dropping packets
[07:46] <dabaR> hacosta_: and what is the brand and model of the laptop?
[07:46] <hacosta_> desktop then, (i dont use ubuntu)
[07:46] <Taime1> wonder if my isp just sucking at the moment
[07:46] <sphorbis> Madpilot, i dont have a screensaver
[07:46] <hacosta_> zv5040
[07:47] <dabaR> Taime1: try pinging someone, like google.com
[07:47] <abo_> in ubuntu how can I enable the "window" key on my keyboard?
[07:47] <ic56> zoeii: however, since the filename ends in .cfg , you should make the reasonable guess that it's a configuration file and therefore will be found somewhere under /etc/.  This line of reasoning will lead you to the right answer: /etc/lynx.cfg is indeed the normal location for that file.
[07:47] <dabaR> abo_: enable it to do what?
[07:48] <chemaja> abo_: it's called "super" in X; i think you use xmodmap
[07:48] <ic56> zoexii: see prev msg to zoeii
[07:48] <Taime1> dabaR: PING www.l.google.com (64.233.167.99) 56(84) bytes of data. <---is that a bad thing?
[07:48] <Dasnipa] [> no
[07:48] <tonyyarusso> !winkey | abo_
[07:48] <ubotu> abo_: To use the windows key in keyboard shortcuts as a modifier (like ALT): Run 'xmodmap' and see what Super_L corresponds to.  Then follow method B at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79560 and use <mod4> (or whatever Super_L corresponded to with 'xmodmap') as the modifier. For example, a shortcut to use windows key + d would look like '<mod4>d'
[07:48] <sparr> how can i find out which files reside in the RAM half of a livecd+ram unionfs?
[07:48] <abo_> chemaja, yes exactly ... how can I enable the super button, dabaR, I installed berly and lots of feature use it in a combination with others ...
[07:49] <dabaR> Taime1: it just means your router does not let you ping out.
[07:49] <tonyyarusso> I hate it when features use a Windows key (I don't have one)
[07:50] <threeonefour> i have a printer driver in a rpm package  how do i get it to wrok for ubuntu
[07:50] <abo_> tonyyarusso, what's mod4?
[07:50] <Taime1> but it did start receiving packets
[07:50] <dabaR> Taime1: Ok, then why would it be bad?
[07:50] <Taime1> i dont know
[07:50] <tonyyarusso> abo_: A name for the key that you can use.  Like <Control>f, use <mod4>f, or whatever
[07:50] <dabaR> any dropped ones when you stop it with ctrl-c?
[07:50] <Taime1> im linux stupid
[07:51] <HymnToLife> tonyyarusso, do you have a homebuilt keyboard ? :p
[07:51] <tonyyarusso> abo_: Or whatever else that method outputs.
[07:51] <tonyyarusso> HymnToLife: No, ThinkPad.
[07:51] <HymnToLife> I though they all came with Win Keys nowadays
[07:51] <HymnToLife> thought*
[07:51] <tonyyarusso> HymnToLife: I think Lenovo may have thrown one on there now, but they didn't when I got mine.
[07:52] <dabaR> Taime1: ^
[07:52] <Taime1> im doing that now, hadda reping
[07:52] <Taime1> o packets lost
[07:52] <threeonefour> tonyyarusso, try ctrl+esc+f
[07:52] <Taime1> scuse me 0 packets
[07:52] <dabaR> Taime1: what is slow on your computer?
[07:52] <Taime1> web pages loading
[07:53] <dabaR> Really? Clear the cache, perhaps.
[07:53] <Taime1> actually, navigating from one to annother, more specifically
[07:53] <tonyyarusso> threeonefour: I usally just remap to something else low on the keyboard.  I also have a Fn key which works for things like that.  :)
[07:53] <Taime1> i guess it could be that
[07:53] <threeonefour> so anyone have an answer for my question
[07:54] <Taime1> that didnt help...
[07:54] <dabaR> threeonefour: you sure there are no ubuntu drivers for that printer?
[07:54] <Taime1> man, it happened as soon as i plugged in my new router
[07:54] <Taime1> maybe if i restart
[07:54] <dabaR> Taime1: tell me what is in /etc/resolv.conf
[07:54] <threeonefour> dabaR, according to linuxprinting.org there isn't
[07:55] <abo_> tonyyarusso, I'm using beryl so metacity would be overriden, right?
[07:55] <dabaR> threeonefour: which printer?
[07:55] <zoexii> threeonefour, did you try alien
[07:55] <Taime1> gimme sec
[07:55] <threeonefour> dabaR, http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-PIXMA_iP1600
[07:55] <abo_> tonyyarusso, so going into metacity wouldn't have any effect
[07:55] <threeonefour> zoexii, whats that
[07:56] <threeonefour> ! alien
[07:56] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[07:56] <zoexii> application for installing rpms in ubuntu, but first you should check to see if the driver is available elsewhere
[07:56] <fee> does anyone know why ppracer would run unaccelerated, using fglrx driver on ubuntu edgy? glxinfo shows that the driver is loaded, the opengl plugin in xmms seems to be accelerated as well
[07:56] <tonyyarusso> abo_: That should be correct.  (Not very familiar with beryl)

[07:57] <AmbientMstr> Alright, folks, I finally got Ubuntu booted with your help
[07:57] <AmbientMstr> BUT
[07:57] <AmbientMstr> My monitor won't display it.
[07:57] <AmbientMstr> It says something about the frequency out of range
[07:57] <AmbientMstr> And to try other resolutions
[07:57] <frogzoo> abo_: when running beryl, there is not metacity - it's either/or
[07:57] <AmbientMstr> Any help?

[07:58] <frogzoo> fee: glxinfo |grep direct
[07:58] <dabaR> Taime1: Well, unless someone has a better idea, sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart, then see whether your /etc/resolv.conf is still the same. paste more than one line to pastebin.com
[07:58] <AmbientMstr> Alright, I'll check it out, thanks
[07:59] <frogzoo> abo_: not sure
[07:59] <dabaR> AmbientMstr: good luck
[07:59] <n2diy> AmbientMstr:  can you surf the net? If not, give me the make and model number of your monitor.
[07:59] <Taime1> ill try it
[07:59] <fee> frogzoo, it says direct rendering: no
[07:59] <frogzoo> fee: well then, no 3d accn
[08:00] <fee> frogzoo: comment out "dri" setting in xorg.conf? (i remember something like that vaguely)
[08:00] <frogzoo> fee: do you have Load  "dri"  in xorg.conf ?
[08:00] <fee> hehe.. bingo
[08:00] <frogzoo> fee: no, it should be in
[08:00] <Taime1> its the same
[08:01] <twb> Are the USNs archived on the web somewhere?
[08:01] <AmbientMstr> I want to be clear that I did not yet install Ubuntu, but was running it live. I couldn't see a thing from my monitor so I had to reboot in Winblows.
[08:01] <dabaR> Taime1: use sudo to edit the file, and leave only the second line in.
[08:01] <frogzoo> fee: pastebin xorg.conf
[08:01] <Taime1> why?
[08:01] <dabaR> AmbientMstr: follow n2diy
[08:01] <tonyyarusso> twb: Yes.  They're linked to from the UWN I know.
[08:01] <dabaR> Taime1: that is your router ip, right?
[08:02] <n2diy> AmbientMstr:  can you surf the net? If not, give me the make and model number of your monitor.
[08:02] <Taime1> router ip is first line
[08:02] <AmbientMstr> n2diy: Just a second
[08:02] <dabaR> Taime1: wasn't there a search belkin as a first line?
[08:02] <Taime1> oh, haha
[08:02] <Taime1> sorry
[08:03] <zoexii> does anyone know if there is an irc command to disable/filter out login/logoff messages?

[08:03] <fee> frogzoo, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2840/
[08:03] <adamonline45> grrrr =(  Is there any way to just plain ERASE every last thing on a hard drive, MBR and all, so I can do a FRESH, fresh install?
[08:03] <zoexii> dabaR, bitchx
[08:03] <AmbientMstr> n2diy: I can surf the internet, yes, and my monitor is a Proview, but I'm not sure about the model. It's not an LCD.
[08:03] <dabaR> zoexii: /help ignore, try that.
[08:03] <chemaja> adamonline45: `dd'
[08:04] <chemaja> adamonline45: on the /dev/hda (or whatever) device
[08:04] <zoexii> dabaR, no help available yet...
[08:04] <n2diy> AmbientMstr:  Ok, never mind, horz. scan rate isn't critical in a LCD monitor, only CRTs.
[08:04] <adamonline45> chemaja: So, if I'm using the repair function on the Ubuntu Server CD, and at a / prompt, that should work?
[08:04] <elkbuntu> aryan, are you running the 64bit version of ubuntu for any particular purpose other than 'because i can'?
[08:04] <chemaja> adamonline45: theoretically
[08:04] <chemaja> adamonline45: i've never found the need
[08:05] <twb> tonyyarusso: I found <http://www.ubuntu.com/usn>.
[08:05] <tonyyarusso> twb: Ah, cool
[08:05] <Taime1> isnt the command sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf   dabaR?
[08:05] <twb> It's kind of amusing how many there are for Firefox.
[08:05] <dabaR> zoexii: here is an example, brought to you by google(bitchx ignore joins as keywords): ignore #nuggetcam modes joins parts quits
[08:05] <frogzoo> fee: uncomment Load "dri" & restart X
[08:05] <dabaR> zoexii: oh, that is for your .bitchxrc file unde /home/userName
[08:06] <adamonline45> chemaja: alright.  I think a previous BSD install is messing with me; I'm single booting and getting the 'famous' "hangs at grub _ with a flashing cursor problem..."
[08:06] <dabaR> Taime1: sure
[08:06] <n2diy> AmbientMstr:  Can you search the net and fing the specs for your LCD display?
[08:06] <AmbientMstr> It's not an LCD.
[08:06] <adamonline45> chemaja: can't find any non-dual-boot related posts on that, so I figure having had something on it in the past is what's doin' it... Le sigh
[08:06] <chemaja> adamonline45: if i were you i'd just remove and recreate partitions and filesystems, then let the OS installer fix your MBR
[08:06] <AmbientMstr> Oh I mean
[08:06] <AmbientMstr> Flat screen
[08:06] <AmbientMstr> Ghlkjshfadslk
[08:06] <zoexii> dabaR, cool, thanx...

[08:09] <Flannel> tarelerulz: ubuntu.exe?
[08:09] <tarelerulz> You can install ubuntu  with an exe that has just been made
[08:10] <AmbientMstr> It's a Proview/EMC analog plug and play
[08:10] <AmbientMstr> That's all the information I found
[08:10] <tarelerulz> I downloaded it and hope to install ubuntu
[08:11] <tarelerulz> I am worred about the menu.lst file for grub. I put a bunch of stuff for the stuff it pass to ubuntu and I really did not understand what I was do with that all the way
[08:11] <AmbientMstr> My card is an Nvidia Geforce 6600 256mb btw
[08:11] <Madpilot> tarelerulz, does that exist at all yet? I know the install.exe was being discussed, but anything actually produced already is likely very, very alpha...
[08:11] <tarelerulz> I download it
[08:12] <tarelerulz> from Ubuntu
[08:12] <frogzoo> tarelerulz: but of course you sensibly kept a back before you started poking about in there, right?
[08:12] <Flannel> tarelerulz: where?
[08:12] <tarelerulz> Well, it says it loopback system
[08:12] <tarelerulz> so no data lost
[08:13] <flutterwings> Hey guys. Haven't played with gnome much- How do you get it to stop loading gnome-wm at loadtime?
[08:13] <hagabaka> has anyone used microdc2 on ubuntu?
[08:13] <mzuverink> My laptop display goes from normal display to screensaver properly but does not handle power off after so long.  It goes off, but within seconds comes back to a blank screen on its own.  If I go to services and uncheck all the power management items it works properly.  However if I attempt to recheck them(reactivate them) they do not work at all.  Anyone got an idea?  The obvious one I tried was to uncheck both then check
[08:13] <mzuverink>  one then the other to see which one is the problem, but like I said it wont allow me to recheck them.
[08:13] <frogzoo> flutterwings: rm the S*gdm in /etc/rc2.d/ or mv it to K*gdm
[08:13] <rm_you> rm the whonow?
[08:14] <rm_you> >_>
[08:14] <mzuverink> Additionally I noticed several posting on the same problem, all with no answer.
[08:14] <rm_you> I really need to turn off highlighting for "rm" when I hang out in linux channels >_>
[08:14] <phiqtion> can i resize ubuntu's partition size from windows without damaging the ext3 or linux itself?
[08:15] <frogzoo> phiqtion: not from windows, no
[08:15] <zoexii> phiqtion, prolly not, try booting live cd then use gparted
[08:15] <flutterwings> frogzoo, Umm... I don't want to get rid of /gnome/, just gnome-wm. I've got another wm that will work fine with the rest of gnome.
[08:15] <phiqtion> zoexii: thx
[08:15] <AmbientMstr> phiqtion: Or try dling Partition Magic or NTFS Resizer
[08:15] <frogzoo> flutterwings: k, dunno
[08:16] <phiqtion> AmbientMstr: i use acronis disc director but it says it might become unbootable (ext3)
[08:16] <dabaR> tarelerulz: were you asked for those options for grub?
[08:16] <phiqtion> what is the ideal SWAP size for a 512mb system?
[08:16] <shodue> could someone help me with a quick question please?
[08:17] <AmbientMstr> phiqtion: Do you have a backup software?
[08:17] <shodue> My question is about the DUAL BOOT
[08:17] <phiqtion> AmbientMstr: no, which one do you recommend?
[08:17] <AmbientMstr> phiqtion: SWAP Partitions are generally twice as large as your normal RAM.
[08:18] <DSL__> exit
[08:18] <DSL__> quit
[08:18] <Flannel> !ask | shodue
[08:18] <ubotu> shodue: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:18] <shodue> okay
[08:18] <frogzoo> phiqtion: is this a lappie or server?
[08:18] <shodue> so I had ubuntu and windows installed on the same drive, correctly, with dual boot
[08:18] <phiqtion> frogzoo: desktop
[08:18] <AmbientMstr> phiqtion: I don't use backup software. I use an external HD as a usb mass storage.
[08:18] <shodue> it was working w/o any troubles, until something in windwos corrupted
[08:18] <frogzoo> phiqtion: a gig twere me
[08:19] <AmbientMstr> Phiqtion: All I need are files, not settings or programs
[08:19] <shodue> i just decided to reinstall windows on that partition
[08:19] <zoexii> !enter | shodue
[08:19] <ubotu> shodue: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:19] <shodue> i'm not sure if my boot loader will stay intact
[08:19] <Flannel> !grub | shodue
[08:19] <ubotu> shodue: 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
[08:19] <shodue> I'm sorry
[08:19] <shodue> shoot
[08:19] <phiqtion> AmbientMstr: i need to get one, but right now for backup i need a fat32 or ntfs partition because i am running linux, win and osx86
[08:19] <shodue> did I just screw myself by doing that?
[08:20] <Flannel> shodue: no, read that first link, it'll tell you how to reinstall grub, it's normal (when reinstalling windows)
[08:20] <AmbientMstr> phiqtion: Try NTFS resizer, it will resize your partition without damaging it. You could alternatively or also run a defrag.
[08:20] <Flannel> shodue: you'll want to overwrite the windows bootloader, so read that section forwhatever ubuntu CD you have
[08:21] <phiqtion> AmbientMstr: for some weird reason, Acronis is not letting me resize my NTFS partition. it just shows a red x.
[08:22] <shodue> thank you
[08:22] <phiqtion> can i resize NTFS from live cd?
[08:22] <ardchoille42> What is this gnome-main-menu I keep hearing about? I can't seem to find it in the repos
[08:23] <Zober> Hi guys
[08:23] <zoexii> phiqtion, yes, you can,
[08:23] <crackhead[1] > hi can anyone help a newbie trying to install ubuntu 6.06??? i keep getting an input error where ubuntu says it cant read from the cd, but i know for a fact from the md5 checksum that the cd is fine...
[08:23] <Madpilot> ardchoille42, it's a re-worked menu that runs all three of the current menus - Applications/Places/System - into one XP-style menu
[08:23] <crackhead[1] > private message me, if you can!
[08:23] <phiqtion> zoexii: no damage is done?
[08:23] <ardchoille42> Madpilot, Oh, ok. Where can I get it?
[08:23] <AmbientMstr> phiqtion: Do you have any settings on that may be blocking that? I'm not familiar with the program.
[08:24] <Zober> I am setting up a PXE server for network ubuntu installs, how can I set it so that it downloads off of a mirror I have already set up on a different machine?
[08:24] <phiqtion> AmbientMstr: nada
[08:24] <AmbientMstr> (23:22:55) phiqtion: can i resize NTFS from live cd?
[08:24] <zoexii> phiqtion, it's never happened to me.  prolly a good idea to do a defrag first, just to be sure that all data is at the beginning of the partition.
[08:24] <Madpilot> ardchoille42, it's called 'main menu' - right-click on a taskbar, choose "add to panel', look for "Main Menu"
[08:24] <AmbientMstr> phiqtion: Yes, you can. But defrag first.
[08:24] <phiqtion> thank you both, bbl
[08:24] <ardchoille42> Madpilot, Ah, ok. then I must have had the name wrong. Maybe USLAB?
[08:25] <crackhead[1] > hi can anyone help a newbie trying to install ubuntu 6.06??? i keep getting an input error where ubuntu says it cant read from the cd, but i know for a fact from the md5 checksum that the cd is fine... private message me, if you can!! greatly greatly appreciated!!
[08:25] <AmbientMstr> So I just loaded up the live version of Ubuntu and it said "frequency out of range, 60/39 kbs" or something like that and "please try other resolutions." The make is a Proview, not sure about its model (old 19in. analog though) and my gfx card is an nvidia Geforce 600 256mb. Is that not supported?
[08:25] <Zober> anyone?
[08:25] <Madpilot> ardchoille42, not sure - there is at least one other 'let's re-do Gnome's menu structure' project out there - the one Suse is using, I think?
[08:25] <Zober> I am setting up a PXE server for network ubuntu installs, how can I set it so that it downloads from a custom mirror (not from the default archive.ubuntu.com)?
[08:26] <crackhead[1] > anyone??
[08:26] <ardchoille42> Madpilot, YEs, that sounds like it.
[08:26] <nsirota> zober
[08:26] <Flannel> Zober: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet for installation, or were you looking for post-installation mirrors (for regular programs?)
[08:26] <Madpilot> crackhead[1] , on the very first menu that comes up on the LiveCD, there's a "Check This CD" option - have you run that to check the burn?
[08:27] <crackhead[1] > i tried to run the check cd, but that failed, too, with the same error
[08:27] <Madpilot> crackhead[1] , then the burn didn't work. Try again w/ a new CD-R, burning slowly - 4x or so
[08:27] <Flannel> crackhead[1] : try in a different cdrom drive, what speed did you burn at?
[08:27] <Zober> Flannel: I am looking for a way to tell client machines conneting to my pxe server to download from a mirror that I created
[08:28] <Flannel> Zober: you'll just set up the mirror.  And point them.  For installation, see that page, otherwise, you need to simply edit the sources.list to point to your mirror
[08:28] <riotkittie> weeeee. my themes are all messed up.
[08:28] <crackhead[1] > i burned it slow at about 4x with infrarecorder. i tried loading it from two different cd-roms. the first one worked a little, got into a loading linux kernel bar, but then the same can't read i/o error occurred.
[08:29] <crackhead[1] > i checked the md5 sum on the cd after burning it, and it matched the correct.
[08:29] <crackhead[1] > so, the burn should have been totally successful, right?
[08:29] <zoexii> crackhead[1] , maybe a hardware problem? does booting live cd work?
[08:30] <Madpilot> crackhead[1] , should have been, yeah. Obviously wasn't, though... I'm not sure what to suggest, at this point...
[08:30] <crackhead[1] > booting live won't work. i think there must be something strange with the hardware/a controller and i need to use a special parameter when booting/installing, but i dont know what it is. can i send a hardware profile to someone via email or something?
[08:31] <alabama> if i move my /home directory into my new partition with cp -a, and then mounting it, will all be like before oder should i use another command
[08:31] <SeraVitae> Ok, my dual head pc in ubuntu, one screen is full of ascii blinking gibberish. I just installed ubuntu, so i assume i probably need nvidia drivers or something right?
[08:31] <zoexii> crackhead[1] , there is a post site somewhere, a better idea than email...

[08:38] <aryan> uhh yeh im kind of a noob lol
[08:38] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Hey, guess what os I run?
[08:38] <aryan> is there any way i can launch the folder with full permissions?
[08:39] <chavo> AmigaOS?
[08:39] <Mstr|UBUNTU> ...
[08:39] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Very funny.
[08:39] <Mstr|UBUNTU> SOLARIS, no jk.
[08:39] <aryan> is there any way i can run the folder with full permissions using sudo?
[08:39] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok, I got it to work. Someone want to walk me through partition installing manually?
[08:39] <zoexii> aryan, sudo nautilus
[08:39] <aryan> how do i run /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins with full permissions
[08:39] <zoexii> aryan, wait... run a folder?
[08:40] <bef> You're the Master, Mstr|UBUNTU, why don't YOU tell US :p
[08:40] <tonyyarusso> aryan: zoexii: don't sudo nautilus.  It screws things up
[08:40] <bef> only if you need it
[08:40] <Mstr|UBUNTU> No, I had to shorten my name.
[08:40] <Captain_Haddock> Q: I need to maintain something along the lines of "network profiles" that will allow me to switch from one set of NIC / DNS configurations to another. Is this possible?
[08:40] <zoexii> tonyyarusso, no foolin?  I do it constantly... what does it screw up?
[08:41] <Captain_Haddock> bef: Maybe it's MoleSTer and not Master :P
[08:41] <bef> Captain_Haddock: Yes, that is the likely case I suppose :] 
[08:41] <Captain_Haddock> Mstr|UBUNTU: you want help with setting up solaris?
[08:41] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok, it's giving me the option to partition the disks now
[08:41] <tonyyarusso> zoexii: It _can_ (but doesn't always) mess with the permissions on some of your ~/.* files, with the possibility of making your user unable to log in.  It doesn't always happen, but it's something to stay far from whenever possible, if you catch my drift.
[08:41] <cokeslut> hello
[08:42] <tonyyarusso> cokeslut: Please change your nick to something more appropriate.
[08:42] <bef> But Coca Cola is a corporate whore; I think it's rather fitting in that circumtance ;)
[08:42] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok, now it's saying Resize SCSI1 (0,0,0), partition #1 (sda) and use free space. Is that the one I want to choose?
[08:43] <alabama> if i move my /home directory into my new partition with cp -a, and then mounting it, will all be like before oder should i use another command?
[08:43] <bef> Mstr|UBUNTU:  explain your current partition setup; what OS is running on this partition #1
[08:43] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Nvm. Manually partitioning. Can someone please walk me through how to resize it now?
[08:43] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Windows
[08:43] <zoexii> Mstr|UBUNTU, dunno, is it?  better select manualy partition and make sure...
[08:43] <Mstr|UBUNTU> I am running Windows XP as my main OS
[08:44] <bef> Yes, you are going to want to make a secondary partition to run Ubuntu or your linux distro from
[08:44] <dobblego> how do I add a user to be a sudoer?
[08:44] <bef> and you'll need to steal some space from the Windows
[08:44] <tonyyarusso> dobblego: add them to the 'admin' group
[08:44] <bef> dobblego: edit the sudoers file or change them to an administration group :] 
[08:44] <Mstr|UBUNTU> I know that. How much space do I give to the root?
[08:44] <bef> dobblego: if you're the first user in a clean setup, and it's saying "name" isnt
[08:44] <bef> in sudoers list
[08:45] <chavo> alabama, cp -ar will work
[08:45] <bef> you might need wheel, or to edit sudoers list :] 
[08:45] <dobblego> ok
[08:45] <Mstr|UBUNTU> It's not letting me make a new one. I have to resize first. Do I proceed doing that?
[08:46] <bef> Depends how much more space you'll use up on windows as to how much you leave it with ;)
[08:46] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Well, I don't want to give Ubuntu all the remaining space
[08:46] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Maybe like 40
[08:46] <Toma-> 40 gig?
[08:47] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Yeah, is that decent?
[08:47] <Toma-> maybe 10gig
[08:47] <bef> Are you going to be using Ubuntu as your _primary_ OS?
[08:47] <Mstr|UBUNTU> 10 gig for the root only you mean?
[08:47] <Toma-> ive got 4 gig and ive killed it with all sorts of garbage
[08:47] <Toma-> yeh
[08:47] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok
[08:47] <dobblego> how else do I change a hostname besides editing /etc/hostname ?
[08:47] <HymnToLife> yep, 10 gig is already more than enough for /
[08:47] <Toma-> 6 gig for / and whatever else for /home
[08:47] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok
[08:47] <bef> I'm in agreement with Toma
[08:47] <DarthLappy> dobblego: Network config?
[08:47] <Mstr|UBUNTU> And swap is x2 your ram right?
[08:48] <dobblego> DarthLappy, ubuntu server
[08:48] <DarthLappy> dobblego: Ah.
[08:48] <Toma-> generally. i operate without swap :)
[08:48] <bef> lol
[08:48] <HymnToLife> dobblego, /etc/hostname is used to set hostname at boot time, don't forget to edit /etc/hosts accordingly !
[08:48] <dobblego> I edit /etc/hostname then I get a message about not being able to resolve 'none'
[08:48] <Toma-> swapfile is enough for me
[08:48] <bef> I got 5gig swap
[08:48] <alabama> chavo, thx
[08:48] <DarthLappy> HymnToLife: Beat me to it :(
[08:48] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Wow
[08:48] <HymnToLife> if you want to sed the hostname without rebooting, sudo hosname YOUr?NEW_HOSTNAME
[08:48] <dobblego> so edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts then reboot?
[08:49] <Toma-> bef: why so much?
[08:49] <HymnToLife> dobblego, yes, or use the hostname command if you don't want to reboot
[08:49] <alabama> but -r is included in -a, but i will give it simply a try
[08:49] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok, I'm in a window that says resize /dev/sda1. It says Free space preceding mib, new size: (which is currently 152626) and free space following. So how do I figure this out?
[08:49] <bef> Toma: it's nice to have a sizeable swap if it's your primary OS and you have the space to spare ;] 
[08:49] <dobblego> ok cheers
[08:50] <HymnToLife> dobblego, also, be sure to have a "real" root shell before changing your hosntame or editing /etc/hosts
[08:50] <HymnToLife> because if they don't, match, you won't be able to use sudo
[08:50] <Toma-> bef: hmm touche. thats why i prefer a swapfile tho. running out of space? no worries! just rm the swapfile and dd a new one
[08:50] <bef> Toma: ;] 
[08:50] <Mstr|UBUNTU> ?
[08:50] <Toma-> swap resize with out the karate kid style swapon swapoff :D
[08:51] <Toma-> Mstr|UBUNTU: just make a 6 gig partition and set it to /
[08:51] <Captain_Haddock> "I need to maintain something along the lines of "network profiles" that will allow me to switch from one set of NIC / DNS configurations to another. Is this possible?"
[08:51] <Captain_Haddock> ^ anybody?
[08:51] <Toma-> and use the rest after it for /home
[08:52] <Toma-> compiling xfce sux :<
[08:52] <chavo> show me swapon!
[08:52] <Toma-> huhu
[08:52] <kraut> moin
[08:53] <Toma-> daniel sun! swapon!
[08:53] <bef> paint the fence!
[08:53] <chavo> hehe
[08:53] <bef> paint the house!
[08:53] <Captain_Haddock> lol

[08:59] <noobie0057> hi, I'm looking for a suggestion, I'd like to run a web server (small for personal use) I'd like it to be compatible with ruby on rails and security is a concern. I'm thinking apache is too big/complex for my needs. Any suggestions?
[09:00] <SzArAk> if apache is too big, try lighttpd
[09:00] <DarthLappy> noobie0057: There is lighttpd which can do Rails.
[09:00] <roaet> ah splint
[09:00] <SzArAk> it's well documented
[09:00] <bef> noobie0057:  you could try a less severe client
[09:00] <Toma-> thttpd is awesome too
[09:01] <Toma-> i use thttpd for my Wii server
[09:01] <Toma-> on a LAN
[09:01] <Mstr|UBUNTU> AHHH, it's all in GiB
[09:01] <Toma-> yes
[09:01] <roaet> sweet
[09:01] <Mstr|UBUNTU> How do I work this partioning thing and where do I tag them root, swap, and home?
[09:01] <Mstr|UBUNTU> *partitioning
[09:01] <amk> is there a decent ftp server with a gtk interface?
[09:01] <roaet> apparently I just can't do if(!int) without it whining
[09:02] <SzArAk> amk: i doubt
[09:02] <noobie0057> my rails installation came with WEBrick, is this an option ?
[09:02] <amk> I've been searching for one for a while...
[09:02] <concept10> noobie0057, depends on what you  want to serve, webbrick is slow, mongrel is the hot dawg in rails land these days
[09:03] <noobie0057> I'm worried about not setting a configuration setting that I don't know about and leaving a hole in my server
[09:03] <SzArAk> amk: and propably you'll fail
[09:03] <noobie0057> I didn't know if webbrick was just for debugging.
[09:04] <SzArAk> amk: ftp servers are not the thing people like to have in X
[09:04] <Toma-> Mstr|UBUNTU: when you click "new" itll be an option in there (iirc)
[09:04] <amk> well damnit I want one, with lots of pretty charts
[09:04] <amk> I have a new project then
[09:05] <bef> amk; let me know if you have any success :] 
[09:05] <noobie0057> I'm not much of a fan of pretty charts.. work ugg
[09:05] <bef> i dont at all have a problem with pretty charts if someone else does the work :e
[09:05] <noobie0057> thanks everyone I'll research your suggestions (thttpd, lighttpd, mongrel, webbrick)
[09:05] <SeraVitae> anyone here have a Marvell/Yukon network adapter?
[09:06] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Toma-: They say ext3, linux-swap, fat32, ntfs etc (the swap part is pretty self explanatory)
[09:06] <SeraVitae> im having some trouble. It doesnt work in ubuntu default, and the linux drivers Marvell supports has a faulty bash script.
[09:06] <Toma-> Mstr|UBUNTU: well make it ext3
[09:06] <aryan> how do i login to edit a folder under the boot user
[09:06] <guigz> helo
[09:07] <erpo> How can I rotate my screen by 90 degrees in software?
[09:07] <aryan> how can i become the boot user
[09:07] <tonyyarusso> amk: Someone suspects that proftpd used to at least have a configuration interface available for it, but isn't sure if it still exists.
[09:07] <threeonefour> my printer is installed but won't print test page help
[09:07] <erpo> aryan: Do you mean root? Use the sudo command.
[09:07] <aryan> can someone please tell me how can i become the root user
[09:07] <guigz> can someone explain me how boot and initramfs work?
[09:07] <aryan> erpo: im a noob can you tell me how to do that?
[09:07] <sdac221x> hi, i am trying to compile the source code of workrave on xubuntu edgy
[09:07] <SzArAk> !sudo | aryan
[09:07] <ubotu> aryan: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:07] <aryan> erpo: yes i mean the root user, how do i login
[09:07] <guigz> You can become the root using su or sudo
[09:07] <sdac221x> when i ./configure  i get "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[09:07] <sdac221x> "
[09:08] <guigz> you can't login being root
[09:08] <aryan> yes but if i wanted to go to a folder
[09:08] <aryan> under the root user so i could edit everything
[09:08] <aryan> how do i do that?
[09:08] <SzArAk> aryan: ubuntu after isntall don't have root user setted up
[09:08] <DarthLappy> sdac221x: sudo apt-get install build-essential, I think.
[09:08] <aryan> can someone give me a step by step guid please?
[09:08] <guigz> open the explorer using sudo...sudo nautilus for example..
[09:08] <decaf> sdac221x: install build-essential package
[09:08] <SzArAk> aryan: read carefully!
[09:08] <aryan> thats what i was looking for
[09:08] <decaf> sdac221x: which app. are you trying to compile?
[09:08] <SzArAk> aryan: sudo -s, sudo, man sudo,
[09:09] <unimatrix9> any one here using sweex wireless pci card?
[09:09] <sdac221x> decaf: workrave on xubuntu
[09:09] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok, I did ext 3 for the root, linux-swap for the swap, now which one do I pick for space?
[09:09] <tonyyarusso> Mstr|UBUNTU: space?
[09:09] <unimatrix9> and do you know if madwifi is out of the box on ubuntu?
[09:09] <noobie0057> aryan: I am new too, I got a great book "Linux phrasebook"
[09:09] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Err, I mean the 'home' partition
[09:10] <HymnToLife> Mstr|UBUNTU, ext3, too
[09:10] <Mstr|UBUNTU> So ext3 for all of them except swap
[09:10] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Ok
[09:10] <tonyyarusso> Mstr|UBUNTU: You have many choices.  ext3 unless you have a reason otherwise (in which case you wouldn't be asking)
[09:10] <SzArAk> HymnToLife: why always ext3?
[09:10] <decaf> sdac221x: workrave is available as a package
[09:10] <unimatrix9> trying to find an cheap pci wireless card for ubuntu wich work out of the box....all tips are welcome...!
[09:10] <unimatrix9> :P
[09:10] <sdac221x> decaf:  i got the .deb package but it wouldnt install on xubuntu
[09:10] <tonyyarusso> SzArAk: it's a sensible default.
[09:10] <interfear> im trying to preform the following command echo "et.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss as root but it says permission denied, how do i give root access to preform that
[09:10] <HymnToLife> SzArAk, why not ext3 ?
[09:10] <SzArAk> HymnToLife: why not reiserfs?
[09:10] <Mstr|UBUNTU> What if I wanted to create a partition for the oses to share...
[09:10] <HymnToLife> why reiserfs ? :p
[09:10] <tonyyarusso> !sudo | interfear
[09:10] <ubotu> interfear: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:10] <SzArAk> fotr instance
[09:11] <SzArAk> it's a younger filesystem
[09:11] <bef> Cemetery Gates :O
[09:11] <interfear> tonyyarusso: it wont let root do it.. i ran it as root
[09:11] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Bef: LOL
[09:11] <interfear> i need to change roots privilages for that command
[09:11] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Hmm
[09:11] <decaf> sdac221x: have you seen synaptic? :/
[09:11] <unimatrix9> no one using wireless today?
[09:11] <Mstr|UBUNTU> So what do I pick for a partition my os's would share..if I wanted to transfer files between them
[09:11] <bef> unimatrix9: you looking for a pc to war hack ?lol
[09:11] <sdac221x> decaf:  yes synaptic doesnt have it
[09:12] <unimatrix9> hehe
[09:12] <bef> unimatrix9: i'm using wireless indeed
[09:12] <tonyyarusso> interfear: Oh, right.  It's b/c the > essentially runs a second command, and isn't doing that one as root.  You can sudo -i to get a root shell, and use that.
[09:12] <decaf> sdac221x: mine has.
[09:12] <bef> unimatrix9: but don't go chalking me now ;] 
[09:12] <guigz> no one for initramfs explaination
[09:12] <SzArAk> hmm... damn, i'm not sure, but i now remember that current install program of ubuntu don't allow you to choose reiser
[09:12] <unimatrix9> i will not bef, unless your name is andrew...;)
[09:12] <mzuverink> amk, http://www.icewalkers.com/Linux/Software/57180/Kproftpd.html  its kde...
[09:12] <noobie0057> does anyone know if there has ever been an effort for linux to make a tv commerical? I'd like to see the Mac commercials refitted with a 3rd linux character. I'd be williong to contribute money towards the effort.
[09:12] <sdac221x>  decaf: do you have extra repos ?
[09:12] <tonyyarusso> SzArAk: Doesn't it?
[09:13] <Mstr|UBUNTU> So what do I pick for a partition my os's would share..if I wanted to transfer files between them
[09:13] <bef> unimatrix9:  /query unimatrix9
[09:13] <decaf> sdac221x: yes, I have universe and multiverse
[09:13] <bef> unimatrix9: i'm so good that i make you do the querying ;] 
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> noobie0057: Yes, there has been discussion of that sort.  You may follow up on that via Google or #ubuntu-marketing.
[09:13] <noobie0057> ah I'll check it out
[09:13] <bef> fo'zilla
[09:13] <noobie0057> thanks all..
[09:14] <SzArAk> tonyyarusso: i was installing ubuntu server 6.10 at there was reiser, but in normal, desktop ubuntu 6.10 there was now reiser ;|
[09:14] <PhatLinez> unimatrix9: http://ubuntusoftware.info/ultimate/ has Wireless Internet integration
[09:14] <SzArAk> afair in previous versions reiser was supported during install
[09:14] <sdac221x> decaf:  I tried going to synaptic and ticking the other 2 boxes in "repositories" but it fails when it tries to reload.
[09:14] <unimatrix9> any tips on an good and cheap wireless card that works out of the box...? ( sweex ? )
[09:14] <tonyyarusso> SzArAk: Might be a desktop/alternate cd difference.  I've always used the alternate, and it's been there (along with xfs and others)
[09:15] <tonyyarusso> unimatrix9: Don't know about price or sweex, but I have an Intel PRO/Wireless 2915 a/b/g in my laptop that's worked on all versions tried.
[09:15] <sdac221x> decaf:  I have http://packages.freecontrib.org/plf/ and http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu set in synaptic.  Are these the repositories you speak of ?
[09:15] <SzArAk> i see
[09:15] <bef> ;_;
[09:15] <threeonefour> i get an error when trying to print  "Paused: Job-Hold_Until-Specified"  what does that mean  i am just trying to print a test page
[09:15] <bef> don't touch my sudoers list, baby!
[09:16] <unimatrix9> intell is not cheap i guess, but thanx for the tip anyway
[09:16] <decaf> sdac221x: plf and canonicals commercial repos are unnecessary for workrave
[09:16] <SeraVitae> Holy moly. Installation of my network card caused a full system freeze.
[09:16] <bef> I have a crappy Belkin 802.11g unimatrix9
[09:16] <sdac221x> decaf: can you please tell me how to add the necessary repos' .
[09:16] <bef> worked on every distro with ndiswrapper and on deb/ubuntu/linuxmint out of the box
[09:17] <OrT> SeraVitae i have the same on fluxbuntu with a pcmcia wifi
[09:17] <bef> you can get one like dat for $10 :p
[09:17] <sdac221x> decaf:  i tried following guides on the internet but it did work when i try to reload in synaptic
[09:17] <SeraVitae> yeah, the script got to 'checking driver' then boom, halt.
[09:17] <decaf> decaf: I have main, restricted, universe, multiverse and backports.
[09:17] <SeraVitae> think i have a spare nic though.
[09:17] <decaf> sdac221x: let me clean up my sources.list file and send to you
[09:17] <unimatrix9> bef, at least you got it working...:)
[09:18] <sdac221x> decaf: alright thanks
[09:18] <Mstr|UBUNTU> So ALL of these are primary partitions?

[09:26] <rafase282> can anyone help me with vmware player or workstation?
[09:26] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Well, my external hard drive is a usb mass storage device, that should work right?
[09:27] <SzArAk> Mstr|UBUNTU: yeah
[09:27] <Mstr|UBUNTU> It should detect it without partitioning or any edits?
[09:27] <SzArAk> Mstr|UBUNTU: if it works now, yes
[09:27] <threeonefour> Mstr|UBUNTU, swap = pagefile on M$ basicly
[09:27] <Mstr|UBUNTU> K
[09:28] <threeonefour> so who can help me
[09:29] <SzArAk> threeonefour: probably noone if you won't tell what's wrong :)
[09:29] <HymnToLife> threeonefour, could you repeat the question ?
[09:30] <threeonefour> i get an error when trying to print  "Paused: Job-Hold_Until-Specified"  what does that mean  i am just trying to print a test page
[09:31] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Crap, it doesn't want to resize it.
[09:32] <Jymmm> I just installed 6.10, and *ALL* of the progress bars are light grey and lighter grey, where would I change this so I can actually see/red it ?  =)

[09:32] <rrohde> Yesterday I updated edgy to feisty using apt-get dist-upgrade, and now the system doesn't want to boot anymore. Kernel panic; cannot sync vfs, blah, blah. HELP! :)
[09:32] <mm2000> apt-get tells me to insert the cd, is there a way to download the app instead?
[09:32] <SzArAk> threeonefour: yeah, i saw that, but no clue
[09:33] <YannTech> rrohde: try to boot with the oldest kernel
[09:33] <rrohde> YannTech: the oldest Kernel available gives me the same error.
[09:33] <rrohde> the edgy kernel that is
[09:33] <cypher1__> mm2000: please check /etc/apt/sources.list whether online repos are mentioned
[09:33] <YannTech> do you have a live-CD ?
[09:34] <YannTech> if yes, boot it and make a chroot to update again
[09:34] <phiqtion> what's the best way to burn isos in ubuntu?
[09:34] <YannTech> k3b is a good GUI
[09:34] <threeonefour> nero
[09:34] <tonyyarusso> phiqtion: right-click, burn to disk
[09:34] <chrismhampson> anyone help me with my kde openoffice issue?
[09:34] <rrohde> YannTech: yeah.. I tried the suggestions on the forums about chroot'ing and so forth. Replacing initrd tools, etc. Still no joy
[09:34] <cypher1__> phiqtion: k3b needs kde libs.. basically it is a kde app..
[09:34] <Mstr|UBUNTU> The following operation could not be applied to disk:
[09:34] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Resize /dev/sda1 from 149.05 GiB to 95.39 GiB
[09:34] <Mstr|UBUNTU> See the details for more information
[09:35] <ademan> anyone else getting a 403 error while trying to update libc6?
[09:35] <YannTech> hummm
[09:35] <threeonefour> phiqtion,  why not nero
[09:35] <YannTech> the VFS mounting is a problem with udev (I think)
[09:35] <cypher1__> threeonefour: nero in ubuntu !?
[09:36] <tonyyarusso> threeonefour: nero's proprietary and not in Ubuntu, for one.
[09:36] <YannTech> but feisty is not recommended for a end-users (sorry man)
[09:36] <SzArAk> threeonefour: is it not payed program?
[09:36] <newbie> anyone know how to use lkl key logger here?
[09:36] <YannTech> rrohde: you should wait few days a try to chroot again and make an update && aptitude dist-upgrade
[09:36] <threeonefour> nero has a linux .deb file so check the web site
[09:36] <YannTech> +and
[09:36] <threeonefour> i use it on edubuntu all the time
[09:36] <cypher1__> rrohde: do you have the paniced stack trace ?
[09:37] <ademan> phiqtion: i second the motion for K3b, graveman is also good
[09:37] <nomadsoul> hi all!
[09:37] <rrohde> YannTech: sounds like a way :)  I can dual boot to SUSE 10.2 in the meantime
[09:37] <newbie> anyone know how to use lkl key logger here?
[09:37] <YannTech> hi
[09:37] <cypher007> hey
[09:37] <rrohde> cypher1__: not handy
[09:38] <Mstr|UBUNTU> Alright, I disappear now. Back to Windows. I will have to finish this later.
[09:38] <cypher007> anyone no anything about VNC / SSH connections
[09:38] <ardchoille42> phiqtion, I have been using graveman, for a long time, for all burning needs.
[09:38] <cypher1__> cypher007: please ask your question
[09:38] <cypher007> whats another good channel for discussing linux
[09:38] <nomadsoul> i have a question. I've seen that in /etc/login.def I can change UMASK parameter so every user will create files with te permission i specify there. Can i do the same for the group part?
[09:38] <rrohde> Is Feisty beta yet?
[09:38] <DYnamo_> Question: I wanted to setup fault tolerance for my servers. ne server located in Cali other located in Germany. Is there a software or hardware (hardware perferred) that replicates new data from one server to another?
[09:38] <nomadsoul> I mean. i have a user, name it foo, and a group, name it lol
[09:39] <mm2000> cypher1__: it says nothing about online repos
[09:39] <cypher007> Question: what is  a better more generalised linux channel to discuss services such as vnc, ssh, networking tools etc
[09:39] <m1r4g3> cypher007 what do u want to know about ssh / vnc?
[09:39] <mm2000> cypher1__: ideas how to include that?
[09:39] <cypher1__> mm2000: can you please paste your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[09:39] <cypher1__> !pastebin | mm2000
[09:39] <nomadsoul> can i set somewhere that by default when that user create a file it'll have UMASK permission ad foo:lol ?
[09:39] <ubotu> mm2000: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:39] <tom47> cypher007 you could try ##linux
[09:39] <cypher007> basically i'm connected to the internet via a router, my ip thats broadcasted if connected to = router access, how would i be able to join my girlfriends computer (different area) on a different router
[09:40] <ademan> http://rafb.net/p/3EtaQI86.html  can someone help me with this?  I can't upgrade libc6 with the update manager or synaptic, i'm about to try straight up apt-get, the paste is the errors it returns
[09:40] <cypher007> i.e. if her ip address is 218.88.141.66 (router), how would i set it up to accept a vnc connection from me, atm it seems basically a lan tool?
[09:40] <Menisk> qemu -L . -m 256 -hda XP.img -hdb \\.\PhysicalDrive0 -cdrom //./d:  -soundhw all                                      I am using this command to access my HDD a disk image and my cd-rom driver with sound hardware on windows to install windows XP to the disk image. The cd-rom command doesn't seem to work though. Can someone help me please.

[09:40] <cypher1__> cypher007: is your gf running ubuntu ?
[09:40] <m1r4g3> ssh will only help u to secure and compress the vnc communication
[09:40] <newbie> anyone know how to use lkl key logger here?
[09:41] <m1r4g3> it's also possible on m$

[09:41] <ademan> bef: failed with apt-get too, i'll try the apt-cache search
[09:41] <cypher007> however i have connected to my lanned windows computer easy enough
[09:41] <cypher007> but just because its on the same network
[09:41] <th0mz> can i use the ks option width the desktop cd ?
[09:41] <th0mz> "ks=http://wwwww"
[09:41] <th0mz> ?
[09:41] <m1r4g3> you need her ip, and a running ssh daemon
[09:42] <Kristov`> hi
[09:42] <cypher007> ...
[09:42] <newbie> Does anyone where I can get information on how to use lkl key logger?
[09:42] <rrohde> BTW: that kernel panic issue I have, does that have to do with a lack of SATA drivers in the kernel I have with feisty?
[09:42] <cypher1__> mm2000: try commenting out "deb cdrom*" line and do "sudo apt-get update"..
[09:42] <cypher007> lets say I have her ip, and i run an vnc server on her computer
[09:42] <ademan> bef: http://rafb.net/p/fLLSTd40.html
[09:43] <mm2000> cypher1__: ok, thanks
[09:43] <cypher007> like atm im running a vnc server, i doubt anyone here could connect if i gave you my ip / password etc
[09:43] <m1r4g3> in this case, try to connect on it on port 5800 (if vnc runs on screen :0)
[09:43] <m1r4g3> don't! ;-)
[09:43] <cypher007> i'm just confused because my local ip = 192.168.*.* and my broadcasted (router ip??) = 218.84.*.* etc
[09:44] <cypher007> and im running a vnc server on two different computers
[09:44] <cypher007> :S
[09:44] <cypher1__> cypher007: 192.168.*.* is Class C and cannot go into internet
[09:44] <m1r4g3> 218.84.88.219 is your public ip
[09:44] <cypher1__> cypher007: enable port forwarding in your router
[09:44] <cypher007> i realise this
[09:44] <cypher007> port forwarding does what exactly?
[09:45] <mm2000> cypher1__: there are no such line
[09:45] <fokuslee> forward the ports to ur computer
[09:45] <SeraVitae> okay i have got a custom linux-image and linux-headers *.deb files for ubuntu edgy to work with core2duo properly. it was compiled on edgy (i am running edgy) and designed for my motherboard and cpu. can anyone give me an idea how to migrate from normal edgy to the new kernel?
[09:45] <cypher1__> cypher007: when some request comes which is intended for your vnc server.. the router will forward it to you
[09:45] <m1r4g3> this let your tunnel protocols in your ssh communication
[09:45] <cypher1__> mm2000: line 5
[09:46] <YannTech> m1r4g3: -N option create a permanent tunnel
[09:46] <mm2000> cypher1__: right... :$
[09:46] <YannTech> I use it to bypass the proxy ;-)
[09:46] <cypher007> ah i see, so in order for me to connect to my gf's computer I would have to enable port forwarding to her router, have a ssh daemon running (preferabbly looking for a connection from my ip address)?
[09:46] <ishtar> does someone know how to make mldonkey service start on bootup
[09:46] <ishtar> ?
[09:46] <ceee> What command shall I use to find out what my sound card is ? - thanx for your help
[09:47] <cypher007> sorry for the questions if there not directly related to ubunutu
[09:47] <m1r4g3> cypher007 you've got it
[09:47] <cypher1__> cypher007: you need to enable port forwarding in your gf's comp to forward to your gf's vnc server
[09:47] <rofl> ceee: lspci
[09:47] <m1r4g3> and to allow the vnc server to listen to localhost
[09:47] <cypher007> hmm ok
[09:47] <m1r4g3> otherwise you won't be able to connect
[09:47] <cypher007> now lets see if i can figure out how to turn on port forwarding lol
[09:47] <ceee> rofl: thanks a lot
[09:48] <cypher007> remoteaccess option?
[09:48] <rofl> ceee: np
[09:48] <ademan> bef: just fyi an apt-get update  then an apt-get upgrade worked great
[09:48] <m1r4g3> you have to do it in your gf router (mostly with web interface)

[09:50] <n00buntu> oh no!!
[09:50] <n00buntu> thash bad right?
[09:50] <juano> anyone help me with that, i tried !grub link, but not much luck
[09:50] <SurfnKid> lets say i have 2 computers, I log in to one from another, and I quit the client. does the server stay on the other one? and where is the session at? how can I find it?
[09:50] <ademan> are there still problems with the broadcom laptop wireless cards?  my friend's just switched to linux... but he's using fedora core.... *shudder* i'd love to hook him with "your wireless will actually work"  he tried ubuntu for a day, but was so put off by the brown/orange he switched to fedora
[09:50] <Kristov> n00buntu it is :/
[09:50] <m1r4g3> SurfnKid if you want to keep your session, i recommend you to use "screen"
[09:51] <adamwest> i have a question about some weird small instances of my pictures following the cursor sometimes
[09:51] <n00buntu> Kristove.... if I run live cd then mount my root drive everything is still there bro
[09:51] <bef> As he faced the sun he cast no shadow ;[
[09:51] <SurfnKid> m1r4g3, lets say for instance I dont actually quit, but I close the cli window in gnome. does the session stay?
[09:51] <marlun> Is there a command line based music player? I've got a server with music on it and I want to be able to play/stop music on the server through ssh?
[09:51] <SurfnKid> 'screen' does that?
[09:51] <rofl> marlun: mplayer
[09:51] <holyduck> marlun mplayer
[09:51] <m1r4g3> SurfnKid your session is lost
[09:52] <rofl> holyduck: beat you to it ;)
[09:52] <Kristov> well, so the problem may come from your fstab file n00buntu
[09:52] <holyduck> ;(
[09:52] <rofl> :D
[09:52] <SurfnKid> m1r4g3, but not with screen
[09:52] <m1r4g3> ssh can handle with small network disconnects, but if you close your terminal, the session is gone
[09:52] <bef> I'll be right back baby
[09:52] <SurfnKid> m1r4g3, do i run screen before I log in thru ssh or after?
[09:52] <marlun> rofl, holyduck, how do I use it? I'll test man mplayer.
[09:52] <m1r4g3> SurfnKid screen emulates a terminal after you log in with ssh
[09:52] <holyduck> :D
[09:52] <holyduck> mplayer, and the file you wanna play
[09:52] <rofl> marlun: sudo apt-get install mplayer
[09:53] <juano> anyone help me reinstall grub??
[09:53] <m1r4g3> screen -ls to get a list of open instances, screen -r to get a session, and screen -d to disconnect

[09:57] <m1r4g3> SurfnKid screen is for command line apps
[09:57] <m1r4g3> not for graphical apps
[09:57] <m1r4g3> !irssi
[09:57] <ubotu> irssi is irssi is a command line interface IRC client ( "sudo apt-get install irssi" without the quotes to try it out ) - also see http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/01/17/my-new-irc-client-irssi-ubuntu-606-610/
[09:57] <m1r4g3> so it should be ok
[09:58] <n00buntu> bye all....thanks for your help guys!
[09:58] <holyduck> ;P
[09:59] <SurfnKid> right i mean if I close my cli client terminal (which closes ssh link) could i log back in to the same ssh session with irssi?
[09:59] <Kristov> to do that you need screen SurfnKid
[10:00] <DarthLappy> How can I add a Samba share with a space in fstab?
[10:00] <m1r4g3> SurfnKid yes if you read the screen manual
[10:00] <m1r4g3> i'm using it for torrents ;-)
[10:00] <Kristov> try preceding your space with a \
[10:00] <adamwest> guys what's the channel for bugs?
[10:00] <DarthLappy> Kristov: Tried that.
[10:00] <SzArAk> DarthLappy: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-February/080086.html
[10:00] <cypher1__> adamonline45: #ubuntu-bugs
[10:01] <SzArAk> first first link from google ;p
[10:01] <SurfnKid> m1r4g3: i got it! screen -x heh
[10:01] <Kristov> dunno then DarthLappy :\
[10:01] <SurfnKid> hehe just too a few seconds to read how to reconnect back to the session, thx again
[10:01] <DarthLappy> SzArAk: That doesn't tell you how to do it with a space :)
[10:01] <cypher1__> DarthLappy: double quotes "" ?
[10:01] <SurfnKid> brb
[10:01] <DarthLappy> cypher1__: Nope.
[10:01] <m1r4g3> SurfnKid screen -r <pid> also
[10:02] <SzArAk> SurfnKid: if the connection on the other session is lost, try rather -d to detach it, and then normal -r
[10:02] <m1r4g3> SurfnKid and screen -ls gives you the open sockets
[10:02] <SzArAk> DarthLappy: hmm, that's something new ;p
[10:03] <hilbrich> Anyone having success by creating a seconde ath-Wireless Interface with wlanconfig  on Ubuntu Edgy with madwifi 0.9.2.1?
[10:03] <zoli2k> How can I record sound produced by flash player?
[10:04] <holyduck> just record from the stereomix channel. or whatever its called on linux
[10:04] <SeraVitae> hey, whats the name of that funky 3d desktop thing?
[10:04] <SeraVitae> beryl, ahh thats it. n/m
[10:04] <rofl> or compiz
[10:05] <holyduck> i like beryl
[10:05] <rofl> there is still a "compiz"
[10:05] <m1r4g3> is it using 3D-Desktop?
[10:05] <hilbrich> whats is status on radeon cards with beryl? got a radeon 9000 firegl
[10:05] <rofl> I believe so
[10:05] <zoli2k> holyduck, I don't know how it can be done. With audacity I am able to record only from the dsp device.
[10:05] <holyduck> hm, i think i did that on linux once
[10:05] <holyduck> cant remeber what i did
[10:06] <DarthLappy> I guess I'll just have to mount it with mount :(
[10:06] <holyduck> hilbrich i think it works
[10:07] <holyduck> i used to have beryl on a x800xt card
[10:07] <prof> hello, is there someone in here who could help me with this: in Ubuntu 5.1 , during install i can configure dhcpcd, in 6.10 i don't have this feature. problem is to send my internet provider my identifier before it asigns me an ip.got as far as the dhcp3-options but haven't got anything working so far.
[10:07] <adamwest> hey guys, i have this weird bug going on: sometimes when i move my mouse (not always) a picture on my computer suddenly appears near the cursor with this sliding effect and disappears..! what the hell is that?
[10:08] <holyduck> but yeh, you need XGL
[10:08] <fiberchunks> batman?
[10:08] <m1r4g3> adamwest I also had this with some resolutions on my intel graphic card: bad drivers!
[10:09] <SeraVitae> holyduck - should i follow the installation tute for XGL or AIGLX?
[10:09] <holyduck> XGL i guess, i think aiglx is just for intel and nvidia cards
[10:09] <adamwest> mlr4g3 this is the first time this is happening... only today it started :P
[10:09] <SeraVitae> i have dual nvidia 7300gt's
[10:09] <holyduck> ah
[10:09] <adamwest> m1r4g3,
[10:09] <holyduck> then you can use the nvidia beta drivers
[10:09] <SeraVitae> so ill go aiglx then.
[10:09] <holyduck> or aiglx
[10:09] <SeraVitae> yeah the nvidia beta drivers looks a bit scary.
[10:10] <holyduck> im using them
[10:10] <SeraVitae> i dont wanna break anything at this stage
[10:10] <holyduck> they seem pretty stable
[10:10] <holyduck> but yeh sure, just use AIGLX then
[10:10] <SeraVitae> can I pm you if i get stuck then? installing the betas?
[10:10] <marlun> I can't seem to run mplayer with m3u files from command line. It works when doing mplayer file.mp3, but then I can only play 1 file at a time, I want to play a playlist.
[10:10] <holyduck> sure sera
[10:10] <m1r4g3> adamwest oh maybe you're talking about the launching icon near the cursor?
[10:10] <SeraVitae> cool, thanks, ill get stuck into it then. :)
[10:11] <holyduck> ;P
[10:11] <adamwest> m1r4g3 what's that?
[10:11] <alex_> hehe
[10:11] <adamwest> m1r4g3 lol not the kde thing
[10:11] <alex_> chat...
[10:11] <m1r4g3> adamwest ok!
[10:12] <alex_> natacha.... russian?

[10:14] <N1kki> Hi, I'm trying to get a windows 2000 machine and ubuntu to connect directly to each other via a crossover cable but not having much luck, I've set the IP addresses to be in the same subnet (192.168.1.0) with addresses .5 and .6 but they cant even ping each other, is there something silly that i'm missing out?
[10:14] <adamwest> m1r4g3 :) dont be. i just done like kde
[10:16] <N1kki> did anyone get the above message?
[10:16] <m1r4g3> N1kki yep
[10:16] <Kristov> yep
[10:16] <m1r4g3> N1kki what's your netmask?
[10:17] <zoexii> heya! question: is there a way to check battery status (of a laptop) from the commandline?
[10:17] <m1r4g3> zoexii acpi -b
[10:18] <zoexii> m1r4g3, cool, will try.
[10:18] <hilbrich> zoexii: hilbrich@hardes:~$ acpi -V
[10:18] <hilbrich>      Battery 1: discharging, 16%, 00:42:14 remaining
[10:18] <hilbrich>      Thermal 1: ok, 38.0 degrees C
[10:18] <hilbrich>   AC Adapter 1: off-line
[10:18] <prof> Problem, how to get dhcp3 sending indentifier (like dhcpcd -h)
[10:18] <zoexii> m1r4g3, returns command not found... am do I need a to install a package?
[10:19] <N1kki> the default, 255.255.255.0
[10:19] <m1r4g3> !acpi
[10:19] <ubotu> acpi: displays information on ACPI devices. In component main, is optional. Version 0.09-1 (edgy), package size 10 kB, installed size 72 kB (Only available for i386 ia64 amd64)
[10:19] <DarthLappy> hilbrich: O_o My laptop is at 67 degrees C according to that!
[10:20] <m1r4g3> N1kki and your interfaces have the same speed? (dmesg |grep -i duplex)
[10:20] <m1r4g3> DarthLappy looks like you need a better cooling system ;-)
[10:20] <N1kki> i'm sure they both are 100mbps
[10:20] <N1kki> but one is a windows host
[10:21] <m1r4g3> full duplex?
[10:21] <N1kki> yep full dup
[10:21] <m1r4g3> ipconfig /all
[10:21] <zoexii> hilbrich, m1r4g3 apt says: package is not available, but is referred to by another package... I am running ppc, perhaps it uses something else?
[10:21] <ted_> hi. I have had to install the 686 smp linux kernel for my dual processor Intel machine. But since then, vmware has to be reconfigured. When it asks me the question 'What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include] ' it does not find the files it needs. Where are the C header files likely to be with my 686 kernel?
[10:21] <N1kki> actually how can you tell in ubuntu which interface is which, cos i have one int built into mobo and one pci card
[10:21] <m1r4g3> zoexii i don't have any ppc
[10:21] <N1kki> i'm just thinking if i've been configuring eth1 instead of eth0 or vice versa
[10:22] <m1r4g3> N1kki plug the cable and check with the dmesg command (see above)
[10:22] <elijah> i tried installing ubuntu 6.10, but when i chose to install it, it didn't go through, what coould be wrong?
[10:23] <m1r4g3> ted_ you need to install the headers package of your kernel
[10:23] <N1kki> ah right ok
[10:25] <ted_> mlr4g3: uname -r followed by 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.15-27-686 g++'?
[10:27] <m1r4g3> ted_ "$ apt-cache search `uname -r` -> then install the headers package with the "sudo apt-get install <package>" cmd
[10:27] <CorpseFeeder> ok, i managed to get this ubuntu computer to browse to the mac os X computer using smb windows network. But on the Ubuntu machine, if I click the mac computer's name i just get an empty folder where I should be seeing the mac's home directory. What gives?
[10:27] <SeraVitae> Can anyone see if they can access http://nvidia.limitless.lupine.me.uk ?? i need the nvidia beta drivers there but it doesnt seem to be responding.
[10:28] <m1r4g3> SeraVitae server is up and running
[10:28] <SeraVitae> what the hell
[10:28] <elijah> yes it is
[10:28] <SeraVitae> on both of my machines it just sits at 'waiting for response'
[10:28] <cypher1__> SeraVitae: try pinging it
[10:28] <SeraVitae> not just a ping/dns, but can you actually see a site or access the repository
[10:29] <SeraVitae> yes, i can ping it.
[10:29] <SeraVitae> that doesnt mean its responding
[10:29] <CaptainD430> whats up
[10:29] <m1r4g3> try "telnet nvidia.limitless.lupine.me.uk 80"
[10:29] <Kristov> CorpseFeeder just connect to the mac computer through ssh :)
[10:29] <N1kki> only eth0 appears in there
[10:29] <SeraVitae> m1r4g3 - really wierd.
[10:29] <Kristov> it's a lot easier to manage f you are at ease with NIX command line
[10:30] <cypher1__> SeraVitae: which repo are you using
[10:30] <m1r4g3> N1kki so it seems you have to configure eth0 !
[10:30] <N1kki> PCI card should be eth1 tho right
[10:30] <SeraVitae> m1r4g3 - that works, kinda, but still, in the script which uses 'wget' on that site, it just sits there until it times out after connecting.
[10:30] <SeraVitae> cypher1__ - that site is a repo.
[10:30] <N1kki> oh right, so only whats connected shows up!
[10:30] <CorpseFeeder> kristov: yes, I know, but there is at least one flippin windows computer on the network, so I thought it might be easier if all the machines used smb/cifs
[10:30] <CaptainD430> any idea where or how can install and get working paltalk messenger
[10:30] <m1r4g3> SeraVitae if you try a telnet server 80, then try "GET / HTTP/1.0" <ENTER> <ENTER>
[10:31] <Kristov> CorpseFeeder actually, when you connect to a mac computer, the default is to access the user's drop box
[10:31] <SeraVitae> it ignored that and won't even error out
[10:31] <SeraVitae> just sits there.
[10:31] <Kristov> I mean, when you connect via smb
[10:32] <CorpseFeeder> kristov what's a drop box?
[10:32] <cypher1__> SeraVitae: so you are mentioning about the gpg ?
[10:32] <Kristov> the drop box is a special repertory in the user's /Users/$LOGNAME/ rep
[10:32] <N1kki> even when i connect other one only eth0 appears in there :/
[10:33] <SeraVitae> lupine.me.uk gives --> "Nothing here yet!"
[10:33] <Kristov> it is used to share things with other guys thanks to AppleTalk or SMB
[10:33] <SeraVitae> limitless.lupine.me.uk just sits there at 'waiting for limitless..etc."
[10:33] <SeraVitae> i guess that box is down or something.\
[10:34] <dromer> aarg, once again I come home to find X on my desktop frozen :@

[10:37] <aryan> metres: where do i find that file?
[10:37] <metres> aryan : /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:37] <m1r4g3> dromer but you can always move the mouse, and u can switch the leds of the keyboard?

[10:37] <ubotu> aryan: documentation is to be found at http://help.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com - General linux documentation: http://www.tldp.org - http://rute.2038bug.com
[10:37] <aryan> ok let me see if i find it
[10:37] <Kristov> aryan sorry I was addressing CorpseFeeder
[10:37] <Kristov> :)
[10:38] <dromer> m1r4g3: nop, can't move the leds (I always check the numlock with stuff like this)
[10:38] <CorpseFeeder> kristov, i have refreshed. it has no effect
[10:38] <m1r4g3> dromer: that's bad
[10:38] <dromer> m1r4g3: but apperantly I could do ctrl+alt+sysrq rseiub
[10:38] <Kristov> :\
[10:38] <m1r4g3> can you ping it? or try to access it remotely?
[10:38] <dromer> m1r4g3: before when X froze (similar liek this) I couldn't do rseiub
[10:38] <Kristov> CorpseFeeder are connections allowed on the mac ?
[10:39] <Kristov> System Preferences > Sharing
[10:39] <dromer> m1r4g3: I was about to ssh to it (got to login .. so yes I hguess) but then I did rseiub and it shutdown
[10:39] <CorpseFeeder> kristov. I would expect so. personal file sharing is turned on and so is windows file sharing
[10:39] <dromer> m1r4g3: any idea what log I should check for errors ?
[10:39] <Kristov> hmmmm
[10:39] <Kristov> weird
[10:39] <Kristov> it works on mine
[10:39] <m1r4g3> dromer the X log file /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[10:41] <CorpseFeeder> kristov - well it don't work on mine. I guess I'm just special.
[10:41] <m1r4g3> dromer i know it's std on (k)ubuntu
[10:41] <Kristov> dunno why it won't work with you :/
[10:42] <dromer> m1r4g3: now I just have the regular X-startup-log, not the log from last boot
[10:42] <dromer> m1r4g3: std?
[10:42] <jotajota> I have a cron job to do a rsync backup of a remote machine over ssh. Have added the proper keys to /root/.ssh/on the remote machine and (as root) can ssh to that machine or run the script without any user input. My /etc/cron.daily job refuses to work, however. Can you give me a pointer on where I'm screwing up? :)
[10:42] <m1r4g3> dromer standard: ubuntu has to be compatible with many hid out of the box
[10:43] <RememberPOL> How might I go about adding a russian keybord layout to my system?
[10:43] <m1r4g3> dromer r u using the nvidia drivers?
[10:43] <RememberPOL> With a toggle function that works in both X Windows and terminal (ctrl+alt+fX) windows
[10:44] <dromer> m1r4g3: yes, nvidia, haven't had probs before on this card
[10:45] <m1r4g3> dromer try to get stats of your card (like temperature)
[10:45] <dromer> m1r4g3: hmmm, how do I do that?
[10:45] <m1r4g3> dromer i know it's possible with the nvidia tools
[10:46] <m1r4g3> but i have an ati on my laptop, so I won't be able to help you before a few days
[10:46] <dromer> ha, found it accidentaly in sysinfo :P (/me on kde)
[10:46] <dromer> thermal monitor now @ 50 degrees
[10:47] <m1r4g3> dromer i did a small script that writes the temp every 2 or 3 sec to a file
[10:47] <dromer> slowdown threshold is at 130 degrees so ..
[10:47] <m1r4g3> dromer i know but i hanged before (around 68-70  )
[10:48] <m1r4g3> but i couldn't move the mouse anymore!
[10:48] <dromer> ok .. I could
[10:48] <m1r4g3> dromer not the same symptoms
[10:48] <dromer> uhuh
[10:48] <m1r4g3> r u using a 3D screensaver maybe?
[10:49] <dromer> ahh wel, it's working now ..
[10:49] <dromer> nop
[10:49] <dromer> no screensavers
[10:49] <dromer> I just switch off the screen when I leave
[10:49] <m1r4g3> and u're running kde or gnome?
[10:49] <dromer> kde (said before)
[10:50] <dromer> ah wait, Flying Things>Swarm is the screensaver .. but it has never worked
[10:50] <dromer> it's not even on btw
[10:51] <m1r4g3> do u see anything strange in your ~/.xsession-errors ?
[10:53] <dromer> m1r4g3: I'm not sure what to look for, I will paste
[10:53] <dromer> !paste
[10:53] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:54] <dromer> hmm, what is an easy way to select all the text in vim? :#
[10:55] <Twiztr> Umm... At my login screen when I type in root and pass, it says admin cannot login from this screen.
[10:56] <m1r4g3> dromer use kate and CTRL-A ;-)

[10:58] <dromer> sorry jotajota, I still don't know how to help you
[10:59] <Voui> I am talking about virtual destkops, by default are 4, any idea how to change to another desktop?
[10:59] <jotajota> sorry, dromer :)
[10:59] <SanketMedhi> Hello, can someone please guide me through how to use PHP + MSSQL + Ubuntu ???
[10:59] <jotajota> will try later then
[11:00] <SeraVitae> SanketMedhi - i believe you can use ubuntu cds to install a LAMP server
[11:00] <SeraVitae> when using the server/text-only cds
[11:00] <SeraVitae> LAMP = Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP
[11:00] <SeraVitae> from there you just start building your website, dbs, etc.
[11:01] <SanketMedhi> SeraVitae: I have LAMP
[11:01] <m1r4g3> dromer: don't see anything wrong at the moment
[11:01] <SanketMedhi> SeraVitae: I can do LAMP
[11:02] <SanketMedhi> SeraVitae: but I have never worked with MS SQL Server earlier
[11:02] <m1r4g3> SanketMedhi: don't ;-)
[11:02] <SanketMedhi> SeraVitae: I am not able to connect to my MS SQL Server through my PHP code
[11:02] <KenSentMe> What is the easiest way to check if sound is working in Wine?
[11:02] <SanketMedhi> m1r4g3: haha, I have to
[11:02] <cypher007> Question: is it possible to SSH to a friends computer when they have a dynamic ip address (with a router) or does it need to be static?
[11:02] <SeraVitae> WHOAOAOAAAAAAA
[11:03] <SeraVitae> beryl is AWESOME>
[11:03] <KenSentMe> cypher007: it is possible, but if the ip changes, you have to reconnect
[11:03] <m1r4g3> SanketMedhi: you need the driver to connect to mssql
[11:04] <m1r4g3> SanketMedhi did you recompile php?
[11:04] <SanketMedhi> m1r4g3: yes I tried
[11:04] <cypher007> ok, however, im kinda noob at this it seems, i'm on a dynamic ip address and if i run a port scan on it vnc will only show up if i do it on my lan ip address i.e. 192.168.1.4..how would my friend connect to me?
[11:04] <Twiztr> http://pastebin.ca/327867 Why cant my root acct log in the login screen
[11:05] <infidel> SeraVitae: how did you install it?
[11:05] <cypher007> at the moment i can VNC to any of my lanned computers easy enough, if i run a vnc server on my girlfriends computer (dynamic ip, with a router), how would i possibly connect to it (port-forwarding?)
[11:05] <KenSentMe> cypher007: you need to forward the ports
[11:05] <OrT> use a dynamic dns url and forward the 5900
[11:06] <DreamThief> anyone inhere has a strange problem with VMware-server-1.0.1-29996 and edgy? the vmware console just won't start up...
[11:06] <cypher007> i went to www.portforward.com and they told me that i needed to have a static ip address?
[11:06] <cypher007> in order to set up port forwarding :S
[11:06] <cypher007> OrT = confused me now lol
[11:06] <OrT> hehe
[11:06] <OrT> you can use a dynamic dns adress
[11:06] <DreamThief> cypher007, try using a dynamic dns service
[11:06] <adamonline45> cypher007: Ugh, I wish I could get a static IP without having to spend another $60/mo
[11:08] <cypher007> :(

[11:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fsdk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:14] <Souljah> tom47: what does that do?
[11:14] <Souljah> repair the file?
[11:14] <tom47> !fsck | souljah
[11:14] <ubotu> souljah: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[11:15] <Souljah> !fsdk and !fsck is like a fix? I want it to boot up normally without any errors though
[11:15] <tom47> you will probably have to use fsck to find problem and fix it
[11:16] <shriphani> what is an ideal distro for a pentium 1
[11:16] <tom47> souljah fsdk was a typo
[11:16] <Souljah> oh
[11:16] <Souljah> so i run that command !fsck in terminal?
[11:17] <tom47> shripani there are several small linuii out there damn small linux and puppy linux come to mind
[11:17] <tom47> Souljah drop the !
[11:17] <abhinay> Souljah: what is that error you getting while booting ?
[11:17] <tom47> Souljah type man fsck in a terminal to read what it does and how to use it
[11:17] <Souljah> well i'm not exactly in linux right now but i have access to ubuntu files..
[11:17] <Souljah> ok tom47
[11:17] <Souljah> will do
[11:18] <chrismhampson> does anyone know how to open opera hidden at kde startup?
[11:19] <Souljah> abhinay: it just said there was an error on Linux Root on the filesystem, and then it forced a check

[11:29] <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!)

[11:30] <bef> expect the worst and we wont be disappointed, don't you hesitate to call me, when only second best will do..

[11:33] <mixandgo> hello, how can I check if my laptop fan works ?
[11:34] <oFF-beAt> what's jfgi ?
[11:34] <xerox> ?????
[11:34] <bef> mixandgo: is it blowing air :P
[11:34] <tonyyarusso> mixandgo: Compile something?
[11:34] <xerox> :/
[11:34] <OrT> bef :p
[11:34] <m1r4g3> mixandgo make your cpu burn and listen if your fan turns on
[11:34] <_`XeOn_> lol
[11:35] <_`XeOn_> use a torch
[11:35] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, it blows air but I think it should go faster cause... it gets a bit hot
[11:35] <bef> mixandgo: seriously, the fan has to have somewhere to vent on the casing of your laptop, if its blowing air then the fan is working :x
[11:35] <Aurvandill> I am trying to install the nvidia beta drivers (for Beryl) but ran into a problem. Is anyone here able to help?
[11:35] <Hoju> Most laptops will turn the fan on every so often anyway. So just keep an eye on it for an hour and see if it starts making more noise or blowing air out the sides.
[11:35] <m1r4g3> mixandgo if you have a recent laptop, you can always install acpi and check with acpi -V: you will see the temp of your cpu
[11:35] <bef> Aurvandill: I can help you
[11:35] <shriphani> hmm so slackware is also an alternative for old hardware
[11:35] <Aurvandill> Okay, here is the deal...
[11:36] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, 54 degrees C
[11:36] <m1r4g3> mixandgo otherwise you have to clean it
[11:36] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, it's a new sony vaio dual core...
[11:36] <bef> Aurvandill: if you want it easy, download a program called EasyUbuntu..
[11:36] <m1r4g3> mixandgo mine is 38
[11:36] <Aurvandill> I am following this HOWTO and I am at the "Installing nVIDIA Beta Driver" section
[11:36] <Aurvandill> http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_with_nVidia
[11:36] <Hoju> That's rather hot.
[11:37] <bef> Aurvandill: Bery is very very buggy
[11:37] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, on my previus laptop the fan was rotating faster when heated
[11:37] <Aurvandill> But I am stuck adding Repository
[11:37] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, this one seems to rotate at a constant rate
[11:37] <Aurvandill> bef, yeah, but I just want to install the drivers at least :)
[11:37] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, I don't think that is normal
[11:37] <bef> all: you think 38 degrees for your PC is hot? it is 40 degrees here right now, air temperature
[11:37] <foutrelis> Aurvandill: What section are you at?
[11:37] <bef> Aurvandill: EasyUbuntu will allow you to install NVidia drivers with extreme easy, ie clicking a button.. or you can just do an apt-cache search NVidia and see what results you get
[11:38] <m1r4g3> bef sorry i'm living in belgium: it's like 0 or 1 degree now (celsius)
[11:38] <Aurvandill> foutrelis, Installing the nVIDIA Beta Driver
[11:38] <Aurvandill> It says to add a rep. in the following command:
[11:38] <bef> then install it with sudo apt-get install <pckagename>
[11:38] <tom47> xerox do you have a question?
[11:38] <Aurvandill> sudo echo -e "\n## nVidia driver repository\nrepository" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:38] <m1r4g3> mixandgo open a terminal and look with "top" if you don't have any crazy process
[11:38] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, can I make it rotate faster or something ?
[11:38] <Aurvandill> so it should look like this, right?
[11:38] <xerox> i found screen resolution
[11:38] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, I don't
[11:38] <Aurvandill> sudo echo -e "\n## nVidia driver repository\ndeb http://nvidia.limitless.lupine.me.uk/ubuntu edgy stable" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:39] <Aurvandill> or did I get it wrong?
[11:39] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, cpu is not at 100%
[11:39] <xerox> but i need a driver for a grafic card
[11:39] <julo> hi
[11:39] <bef> hi julo
[11:39] <xerox> where i can find ?
[11:39] <_`XeOn_> well at least u got the card
[11:39] <m1r4g3> mixandgo blow on it? no really u can try to use cpu frequency scaling
[11:39] <tom47> xerox nvidia or ati?
[11:39] <foutrelis> Aurvandill: Just do it manually. gksu gedit /etc/apt/source.list :)
[11:40] <xerox> nvidia
[11:40] <tom47> !nvidia | xerox
[11:40] <ubotu> xerox: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:40] <foutrelis> Aurvandill: And then copy paste the repo in the text file and click save :)
[11:40] <bef> xerox apt-cache search drivertype ; ubuntu makes it as easy as that for NVidia and ATI users XD
[11:40] <Aurvandill> foutrelis, ok, I just didn't understand what the line the HOWTO suggested did
[11:40] <mixandgo> m1r4g3, so there is just one speed ? for the fan
[11:40] <rixi> Hello
[11:40] <Aurvandill> foutrelis, is it just doing it in a fancy way?
[11:40] <bef> m1r4g3:  the fan will set its own speed unless you tamper with it with software
[11:40] <foutrelis> Aurvandill: yes
[11:40] <xerox> i do not understand ????????
[11:40] <m1r4g3> mixandgo it seems so, but it should be possible to scale the cpu frequency
[11:40] <xerox> ?????
[11:41] <rixi> I'm sorry, I've migrated form windows just yesterday and I'm really new into Linux

[11:42] <Aurvandill> foutrelis, I see you use gksu. is that for extra "vulnerable" files or something? Are there more "su"s?
[11:43] <m1r4g3> bef is it only for ibm (thinkpad)?

[11:44] <matsyes> hi i was just curious and was wondering if theres an article somewhere detailing ubuntu's choice in choosing debian as the base upon which it was developed
[11:44] <mixandgo> bef, shouldn't there be something in /proc/acpi/fan ?
[11:45] <tom47> matseyes don't know of one ... maybe its a s simple as it eing 'as good as most better than some'
[11:45] <xerox> wath this is ????
[11:46] <bef> m1r4g3:  mixandgo: http://www.linux.org/apps/AppId_4337.html << use that to monitor your speed, and sometimes touching the fan will cause it to run at its proper speed, mine often gets stuck in 1 speed :x
[11:46] <xerox> Could not open "xchat-plugin-tcl-2.0.7-1.i686.rpm"
[11:46] <foutrelis> rpm? :S
[11:46] <xerox> Archive type not supported.
[11:46] <tom47> xerox you should not be using .rpm's with ubuntu
[11:46] <bef> xerox get a .deb
[11:46] <xerox> ?????????
[11:46] <xerox> deb is ????
[11:46] <bef> deb is debian package
[11:46] <foutrelis> !deb
[11:46] <ubotu> deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[11:46] <bef> ubuntu uses debian
[11:46] <m1r4g3> xerox if not existing, try alien
[11:47] <tom47> !synaptic | xerox
[11:47] <ubotu> xerox: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[11:47] <m1r4g3> !alien  | xerox
[11:47] <ubotu> xerox: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[11:47] <xerox> wath is rpm ???
[11:47] <OrT> heh
[11:47] <bef> read up; someone just told you XD
[11:47] <matsyes> tom47:yeah i guess it could be that but i figured a tought of thought might have gone into the descision :P
[11:47] <Aurvandill> lawl... I already had the repo.
[11:47] <xerox> I see :))))
[11:48] <matsyes> *tought =lot
[11:48] <tom47> matsyes is it just a casual enquiry
[11:48] <xerox> what I do with rpm ?
[11:48] <xerox> can I uninstal it ???
[11:48] <tom47> xerox you do nothing with them ... delete it and use synaptic
[11:49] <glow_> i've noticed a strange bug on edgy, in keyboard shortcuts if i bind ctrl+alt+letter, after binding that letter stops working completely, with or without accelerators until i go to preferences>keyboard and do reset to default...
[11:49] <glow_> not exactly sure if i should file a bug or try something else first
[11:49] <mixandgo> bef, this link reffers to IBM's only I think
[11:49] <xerox> where can I delite a this rpm ??
[11:49] <OrT> delite an rpm.. hm
[11:49] <bef> mixandgo: i agree ;]  that just an example of what you can find with 2 minutes on google lol
[11:50] <matsyes> tom47:yeah just a casual enquiry was checking out the variation of distributions and was wondering about thier pros and cons and how they influenzed later distributions
[11:50] <bef> mixandgo: http://www.linux.org/apps/AppId_4337.html
[11:50] <bef> mixandgo: that will monitor speed, but not alter it
[11:50] <mixandgo> bef, http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_control_fan_speed
[11:50] <mixandgo> I ment this
[11:50] <m1r4g3> bef it seems there is nothing in the repos
[11:50] <bef> mixandgo: i realise what you are saying
[11:51] <tom47> matsyes basically if you do a background on debian, andf realise the extent of it and the degree of its dedication to open source issues then that will explain a good percentage of it i think
[11:51] <bef> m1r4g3: hmm.. that's a big'n, hold on a minute
[11:51] <tom47> matyes try #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:51] <mixandgo> bef, I am starting to think that my ubuntu is not seeing the fan or something
[11:52] <tomix> I was following this thread on installing the latest version of SVN and although everything appears to have gone fine svn --version still comes back as the old version can anyone point out where i might have gone wrong http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1498857
[11:52] <bef> mixandgo: hm, well try out http://www.linux.org/apps/AppId_4337.html and see if it tells you a speed?
[11:53] <RememberPOL> Hey is it possible to some 'set' the 'basic' xkbvariant to 'dvorak' so that a non-english phonetic variant will also use dvorak instead of qwerty?
[11:53] <m1r4g3> bef mixandgo therefore you need lm-sensors, but it allows only to view, not to change anything
[11:54] <bef> m1r4g3: mixandgo: I'll be back soon, I've got some things to do, feel free to query me and I'll get back to you when I return shortly
[11:54] <bef> m1r4g3: indeed.. hmm, ok ill have a thorough look when i return in maybe 15min

[12:05] <Gorlis1> Hi
[12:05] <flawhatson> would anybody be able to help me out with oidentd?
[12:05] <Gorlis1> quick question, on boot up
[12:05] <bef> OrT: yeahlol
[12:05] <bef> Gorlis1: Shoot
[12:05] <tom47> !ask | Gor
[12:05] <Gorlis1> can I adjust the screen resolution on the session login page?
[12:05] <ubotu> Gor: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:05] <Gorlis1> heh
[12:06] <kane77> any benchmarking applications for ubuntu?
[12:06] <Gorlis1> because its running my onboard graphics card oddly and causing artifacts (where once logged in it changed to my set res etc)
[12:07] <flawhatson> * *** Looking up your hostname... * *** Checking ident * *** Couldn't look up your hostname * *** Got ident response
[12:07] <flawhatson> what does this mean? ^^
[12:07] <flawhatson> i've got oident set up through xinetd
[12:07] <phiqtion> what's the best ext3 for windows xp?
[12:07] <phiqtion> ext3 reader*
[12:07] <bef> Hm, Gorlis1: have you tried configuring your bootup resolution in your BIOS, or even tried setting the "root" user resolution and seeing if that changes it?
[12:07] <Gorlis1> ive not tried fiddling with the bios
[12:08] <Gorlis1> as its an old office system
[12:08] <bef> Gorlis1: then unfortunately I'm not sure how to help you :[
[12:08] <Gorlis1> how would I go about adjust root reS?
[12:08] <bef> login as root
[12:08] <xerox> I downloading some update, it is good ????
[12:08] <bef> system>preferences>screen resolution
[12:08] <Gorlis1> ok only concern what is the root users password?
[12:09] <phiqtion> what's the best ext3 reader for windows xp?
[12:09] <Gorlis1> (fresh install)
[12:09] <bef> the root users password is whatever password you use when you su or sudo
[12:09] <Gorlis1> or is it the same as my primary user?
[12:09] <vega-> how come thunderbird (in gnome) opens konqueror when clicking on a link in an email? preferred web browser is set to firefox in gnome settings
[12:09] <Gorlis1> right
[12:09] <tonyyarusso> !ext3 | phiqtion
[12:09] <ubotu> phiqtion: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[12:09] <Gorlis1> ok thanks - will try it now :)
[12:09] <bef> Gorlis1: good luck!
[12:09] <Gorlis1> bake me a kipper skipper, I will be back for breakfast :)
[12:09] <xerox> There is another synaptic running in non-interactive mode. Please wait for it to finish first.
[12:09] <xerox> ?????????????????
[12:10] <flawhatson> has anybody here got oidentd going?

[12:11] <Zaggynl> I can't start my update manager anymore, it keeps claiming another software tool is already running
[12:12] <Gorlis1> thats what ive tried :(
[12:12] <bef> Gorlis1: when you su or sudo, it basically is accessing root via your primary user, and thus requires the root password, so if you can su or sudo, then you can log in as root
[12:12] <Gorlis1> i can sudo fine
[12:13] <Gorlis1> accept its not logging in using username root with sudo password
[12:13] <bef> then you can log into root, you must've made a mistake :x
[12:13] <Gorlis1> ok heh will try again :)
[12:13] <bef> hehe

[12:19] <kane77> oh man.. I so desperately want beryl... but I heard upgrading to edgy isnt the best idea (through dist-upgrade)
[12:19] <mcquaid> how can i pass something (e.g acpi=off) at bootup, without manually modifying grub?
[12:19] <mcquaid> do i just press f6?
[12:19] <Zaggynl> kane77, beryl runs fine in dapper as well.
[12:20] <bef> Gorlis1: possibly the way it sets up the root user is different, if you can sudo though - thats the root password you enter, so theres no reason it shouldnt work, maybe your user is setup as root... so just try system>preferences>screen resolution from your current user
[12:20] <Zaggynl> (and I find beryl to be cool but useless)
[12:20] <Gorlis1> well mine already set when logged in as user
[12:20] <kane77> Zaggynl, on x64? I followed the howto but it couldnt find package beryl (which is impotant i believe ;) )
[12:20] <tom47> mcquaid as a one off you mean?  in this case move to item end press e for edit
[12:20] <Gorlis1> its fine, just the login screen thats effected
[12:21] <mcquaid> yes exactly, thx tom47

[12:28] <Aurvandill> Eh, okay... Beryl was working fine, but since some HOWTO suggested I should update to NVIDIA beta drivers, it stopped working after doing so.
[12:28] <whazilla> enemy territory
[12:28] <whazilla> but not quake
[12:28] <Aurvandill> Is there a way to get back my old settings where it worked?
[12:28] <clsnd> Aurvandill: try envy
[12:29] <Aurvandill> Okay. What is that?
[12:30] <clsnd> its a python script that automatically detects your nvidia card, fetches the correct drivers and installs it
[12:30] <zoexii> question!: can anyone reccomend any wicked awesome games that can be run on command line (without X)?
[12:30] <Aurvandill> I think the new driver works, just not with Beryl.
[12:30] <Zaggynl> Envy rocks :D
[12:31] <clsnd> i managed to run it just fine here..
[12:31] <bef> Aurvandill:  Beryl is incredibly buggy

[12:38] <HymnToLife> Nikki, from the command line, most likely

[12:39] <Nikki> but thing is I also installed menu-xdg , cant see any signs of that either

[12:55] <denardo> frogzoo: what do I use to update that? apt-get?
[12:55] <Zaggynl> Aurvandill, if you can, try looking in here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=255929&highlight=envy

[01:08] <holyduck> copyed all yer home files

[01:08] <holyduck> yeh
[01:08] <Arcad3> _`XeOn_: cedega

[01:09] <holyduck> never tryed it, but it ought to work
[01:09] <SeraVitae> its just hda to hdb anyways
[01:09] <SeraVitae> so it should be fine

[01:10] <Arcad3> if someone wants
[01:10] <SeraVitae> holyduck - would it speed up performance if i moved the linux-swap to the other drive as well?
[01:10] <hyphenated> SeraVitae: if you're using swap, then performance is out the door already

[01:11] <SeraVitae> hyphenated - true, i have 2gb of ram
[01:11] <dhq> but it used to be default
[01:11] <Arcad3> Nikki update the repositories
[01:11] <denardo> If I edit my xorg.conf file, do I have to completely kill X for the change to take effect?
[01:11] <holyduck> yeh

[01:11] <holyduck> ctrl+alt+backspace
[01:12] <Zaggynl> that's a bit crude,but it works
[01:12] <bauer77> denardo usually ctrl  alt backspace
[01:12] <dhq> hyphenated: how do i change it back
[01:12] <Zaggynl> I prefer logging out and ctrl-alt-F1
[01:12] <holyduck> killing x works just fine :d
[01:12] <bauer77> although last time I did that I crashed my system..
[01:12] <denardo> Hmm, ok. Gotta go close a bunch of apps (including this one) first.
[01:12] <bauer77> darn ati drivers
[01:12] <holyduck> you can just kill with  progs open
[01:13] <hyphenated> dhq: that requires more detail. do you have an ATI graphics card?
[01:13] <Nikki> thanks i'll try that
[01:13] <dhq> hyphenated: its a intel card
[01:13] <Nikki> one hour to install VNC, frustratintg
[01:13] <Freenet> zannygl i think i don't know how to use Filezilla because this is the first time to use it
[01:14] <Freenet> zaggynl sorry *
[01:14] <holyduck> 1 ftp client, is basicly just like another ftp client, freenet
[01:14] <hyphenated> dhq: oh ok. you'll have to use google to find answers faster than I am capable of :-)
[01:14] <holyduck> they all work in generaly the same way
[01:14] <Zaggynl> Freenet, you don't have to use firezilla, mozilla firefox will work to
[01:14] <dhq> hyphenated: [VO_TDFXFB]  Can't open /dev/fb0: Permission denied.
[01:14] <Schumbi> huhu
[01:15] <_`XeOn_> errmm cedega is a shareware
[01:15] <Zaggynl> yes, it requires money
[01:15] <Freenet> i've firefox but if i will got a disconnection ,i ll lose all stored data
[01:15] <Schumbi> yes
[01:15] <Zaggynl> try wine, it works pretty well
[01:15] <holyduck> i wuld never use cedega
[01:15] <holyduck> wine works good in most cases
[01:15] <Zaggynl> search appdb.winehq.org for apps and how well they work
[01:15] <Schumbi> wine is works good
[01:15] <tom47> nikki why not simply use terminal server client?
[01:15] <Rookie-1> try wine with *msi files ....
[01:15] <locus> i need to run a program (EVE) through wine. the instructions i have been given are to 'copy your eve\cache folder from windows to the .wine\c_drive\eve\cache folder. iknow where the 2nd area is but not the first. any idea what this means?
[01:16] <Freenet> ?
[01:16] <Zaggynl> locus, try #winehq for more specific questions
[01:16] <_`XeOn_> EVE isnt for linux?
[01:16] <Zaggynl> Freenet, you could also try Internet Explorer
[01:16] <Zaggynl> _`XeOn_, not natively
[01:16] <_`XeOn_> o.o
[01:16] <Zaggynl> O.O
[01:16] <Freenet> ah internet explorer is worst than all!
[01:17] <locus> wine hq asked me post here as i should know first how to copy, etc :(
[01:17] <Zaggynl> Freenet, anything that works
[01:17] <Zaggynl> locus, ah okay
[01:17] <LinTux> I install kde & xfce4 in console, I have removed them but they are still selectable at login
[01:17] <Freenet> Zaggynl  i ve flashget the alst verson beta but ithink it has many bugs!
[01:17] <_`XeOn_> is wine included in the ubuntu default repositories?
[01:17] <tom47> Freenet imho you should use the bittorrent rather than ftp ..... its is self checking and restartable
[01:17] <pfalcone> dhq: what are you exactly trying to do?
[01:18] <locus> yes it is freenet. if you check 3rd party
[01:18] <LinTux> I installed kde & xfce4 in console, I have removed them but they are still selectable at login
[01:18] <dhq> pfalcone: i wanna play a movie with default settings
[01:18] <Nikki> Does anyone know of a simple way to tell where a program has been isntalled and how to actually use it
[01:19] <Zaggynl> Freenet, http://download.utorrent.com/1.6/uTorrent-1.6-install.exe and tell me when you're done installing
[01:19] <locus> would windows have a seperate section to that under wine?
[01:19] <Schumbi> Nikki try command whereis in xterm or any other terminal
[01:19] <Zaggynl> Nikki, whereis programname, or open synaptic, search for the program, then click 'installed files'
[01:19] <pfalcone> dhq: is it safe to assume that you already have X working?
[01:19] <Schumbi> Nikki than you know the pathj
[01:19] <sykes> hi
[01:19] <Nikki> ah whereis, ok i'll try that, Thank you guys
[01:20] <Nikki> its a shame its not added to the applications menu
[01:20] <sykes> im trying to run ubuntu server install on abit mobo/sempron amd and its kernel panicing on boot
[01:20] <Schumbi> naikki: to get the arguments and usage information try  [command]  --help
[01:20] <Freenet> ok thanks!but you should know that i'm newbie and never i used this tech of torrents! shame
[01:20] <sykes> the desktop livecd works though :/
[01:20] <sykes> nyone see this ?
[01:20] <denardo> OK, well, I hoped that killing the line in xorg.conf that explicitly (and mysteriously) mentioned cyrillic would fix the emacs problem, but it didn't. Hmm.
[01:20] <Arcad3> can someone help a kid
[01:20] <rodrigo_> ola
[01:20] <Arcad3> with ubuntu?
[01:20] <Arcad3> he wants to install windows

[01:20] <dhq> pfalcone: i guess so my x works well
[01:21] <frogzoo> denardo: turns out emacs is broken in edgy
[01:21] <Freenet> it has done zaggynl i installed it!

[01:22] <tom47> ok
[01:23] <denardo> rixi: I'm not too adept with LaTeX but might know something.
[01:23] <Zaggynl> Freenet, download this, then double click it, and make sure it's opened in utorrent: http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[01:23] <rodrigo_> pessoal, preciso configurar 2 placas de rede no ubuntu so q qnd levanto uma a outra cai.. alguem poderia me ajudar
[01:24] <_`XeOn_> whats the difference between sudo apt-get and sudo aptitude?
[01:24] <Nikki> are there any programs available which list ALL installed programs which you can execute with one click
[01:24] <denardo> Ah, it looks like the jEdit editor has a lilypond mode. I'll try it.
[01:24] <Freenet> zaggynl 6.10 or 6.06
[01:24] <bauer77> is there a large codec pack, similar to the K-Lite Codec pack for Windows?
[01:25] <bef> bauer77: it's called EasyUbuntu
[01:25] <Zaggynl> Freenet, just click the link and open the torrent
[01:25] <_`XeOn_> !win32 | bauer77
[01:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about win32 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:25] <Zaggynl> it's 6.06
[01:25] <bef> google it; comes with lots of codecs and auto install for ATI/Radeon et cetera
[01:25] <bauer77> thanks bef
[01:25] <Freenet> u gave me a link for ubuntu 6.06 not the last release
[01:25] <Arcad3> who wants cedega free cracked
[01:25] <frogzoo> denardo: I find someone's repo with a new version here: http://g33k.wordpress.com/2006/11/06/gnu-emacs-with-xft-goodness/
[01:25] <Arcad3> ?
[01:25] <Freenet> :s
[01:25] <Zaggynl> Freenet, that's because 6.06 is the most stable, 6.10 is the newest but not most stable
[01:26] <sykes> whats difference between ubuntu desktop + server : can i sintall desktop version and strip it down to be a server ?
[01:26] <hyphenated> _`XeOn_: apt-get vs aptitude for installation is a moot point. for uninstallation though they act quite different
[01:26] <denardo> frogzoo: Thanks. I'll try it.
[01:27] <_`XeOn_> hyphenated, thanks
[01:27] <tom47> freenet http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[01:27] <Zaggynl> :/
[01:28] <Zaggynl> I just gave him the 6.06, oh well
[01:28] <SentineLxx> Question: Has anyone got experience with setting up 5.1 sound + alsamixer?
[01:28] <Freenet> thanks zaggynl and Tom47
[01:28] <Freenet> but its true isnt most stable the last one?
[01:29] <Nikki> i found some vnc files in my usr/bin folder but they have a padlock icon, any idea what that means?
[01:29] <_`XeOn_> once ive installed wine do i have to reboot? i cant see the icon
[01:29] <Arcad3> :)
[01:29] <tom47> freenet some say so but i am quite happy with 6.10
[01:29] <SentineLxx> _`XeOn_, there is no icon as such
[01:29] <Svish> I installed apache with the synaptics thingy. How can I restart the webserver so that it reads the configfiles again?
[01:29] <Arcad3> _`XeOn_:sudo wine file.exe
[01:29] <SentineLxx> type winecfg in terminal and see if it brings anything up
[01:30] <tom47> freenet if you try 6.10 and are unappy with stability you can always download and install 6.06
[01:30] <Freenet> and after downloaiding how i ll do with this torrent file?
[01:30] <Svish> !apache
[01:30] <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.

[01:34] <Freenet> for free or by buying?
[01:34] <Zaggynl> free
[01:34] <Zaggynl> well, the 6.06 is free
[01:34] <Arcad3> give me the users and password +IP and i will do everything for ya;)
[01:35] <Freenet> so i could get it here in Algeria?
[01:36] <Zaggynl> Freenet, https://shipit.ubuntu.com/login <= read the text :)
[01:38] <Freenet> yeah thanks , it says the 6.06 LST
[01:38] <_`XeOn_> to unistall a program whats the command?
[01:38] <_`XeOn_> sudo apt-get unistall file ?
[01:38] <kane77> _`XeOn_, apt-get remove program
[01:39] <_`XeOn_> kk
[01:39] <IdleOne> apt-get remove -purge package
[01:39] <kane77> _`XeOn_, of course as a root :D and you can use aptitude instead of apt-get
[01:39] <IdleOne> aptitude rocks
[01:40] <Schumbi> _`XeOn_ : perhaps its a good idea to read man apt or so   there is much more you can do with apt
[01:41] <Schumbi> if like GUIs use Synaptic or something like this
[01:41] <_`XeOn_> done
[01:41] <bruceleroy> helo
[01:42] <aa_> sorry, can I moan about your release naming?
[01:42] <bruceleroy> I have problems to configure my dns service
[01:42] <aa_> or can someone tell me which came first, the breezy or the dapper?
[01:42] <tom47> aa_ /join #ubuntu -offtopic
[01:42] <mindmedic> breezy came first
[01:42] <bruceleroy> can you help
[01:42] <Atnan> Hi folks. I've just net-booted my Blade100, but it's thrown me straight into the language selection dialogue. Is it possible to force a server install from here?
[01:42] <_`XeOn_> i hope ubuntu gets over microsoft is so fast to do stuff in here i know u have to learn the commands but once u got it is faster that windows
[01:42] <denardo> Grr... I installed the altered version of emacs from that page, and when I ran it, it dumped core.
[01:42] <aa_> tom47: that is offtopic?
[01:43] <_`XeOn_> no lousy registry entries
[01:43] <Zaggynl> aa_, moaning about release names ;-)
[01:43] <_`XeOn_> =)
[01:43] <aa_> I have got this revolutionary idea!
[01:44] <denardo> aa_: They are in alphabetical order according to the Roman alphabet. Breezy, (something), Dapper, Edgy, Feisty, etc.
[01:44] <aa_> you could number releases like this 1, 2, 3
[01:44] <aa_> oh genius!
[01:44] <mindmedic> Anyone else experiencing a segfaulting firefox in feisty? I removed the ~/.mozilla directory, but still
[01:44] <aa_> well, now that is perfect, excuse my moaning
[01:44] <abhinay> does ubuntu works on intel dual core processor ?
[01:44] <aa_> abhinay: yes
[01:44] <SeraVitae> abhinay - im running a core 2 duo right now
[01:45] <mindmedic> aa_: they are named ... breezy = 5.10, dapper = 6.04... 5.10 < 6.04
[01:45] <SeraVitae> only thing that doesnt work is my network card
[01:45] <abhinay> cool
[01:45] <aa_> no I get it now, al;phabetical order seems fine for me
[01:45] <Atnan> Anyone know how to force a server install when net-booting?
[01:45] <aa_> at least I know what came first
[01:45] <abhinay> SeraVitae: is there anything that i need to change settings or works as default to install ubuntu on dual core processor ?
[01:46] <Freenet> zaggynl
[01:46] <IdleOne> aa_: the chickn or the egg?
[01:46] <Zaggynl> Freenet, yes?
[01:46] <denardo> aa_: And the numerical versions show the year and month that they were released. 6.10 came out in October of 2006.
[01:46] <Zaggynl> Freenet, you can call me and ask the question at the same time
[01:46] <mindmedic> abhinay: no.. the two cores will work out of the box
[01:46] <aa_> is edgy released yet
[01:46] <Freenet> ahve u heard of ZXDSL 852 modem?
[01:46] <Zaggynl> aa_, yes
[01:47] <Freenet> have* ok excuse me
[01:47] <tom47> aa_ edgy is number 6.10 which means it was released in october 2006
[01:47] <aa_> this is starting to make sense
[01:47] <aa_> I knew I came hear for a good reason
[01:48] <_`XeOn_> !edgy
[01:48] <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
[01:48] <Freenet> i had mandriva but it told em that couldnt recongnise my modem(DSL) so i couldnt sue the net!and i  affraid that happen with Ubuntu
[01:48] <OrT> came here to hear
[01:48] <Freenet> i couldn't use the net*
[01:48] <Zaggynl> Freenet, perhaps ubuntu will, but I can't promise anything
[01:48] <_`XeOn_> how can i increase the internet speed to max?
[01:48] <IdleOne> what are they going to do after they release zainy zebra?
[01:49] <Zaggynl> Own windows ;)
[01:49] <Freenet> but u dont know a site could contain all drivers for dsl modems?
[01:49] <IdleOne> lol ubuntu did that 3 releases ago
[01:49] <Zaggynl> Freenet, no, sorry
[01:49] <aa_> is edgy stable yet?
[01:49] <SeraVitae> seems stable here
[01:49] <IdleOne> aa_: yes it is for me but someppl do have problems
[01:49] <_`XeOn_> here too
[01:50] <tom47> moi aussi
[01:50] <Zaggynl> It's not a LTS release, but it's called stable, I haven't tried Edgy myself yet
[01:50] <_`XeOn_> how can i increase the internet speed to max?
[01:50] <Freenet> Zaggynl !it's ok &  excuse me for annoying you today

[01:51] <frogzoo> _`XeOn_: you can tweak buffer setting in /etc/sysctl.conf - look for a guide
[01:51] <Freenet> zaggynl you're always here in thsi room?
[01:51] <tom47> !ask | karim
[01:51] <ubotu> karim: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:51] <Zaggynl> Freenet, sometimes
[01:51] <aa_> by stable I mean "unchanging" I don't mean "not crashing"
[01:51] <Freenet> lol to noy a bit :p when i ll download this torent!

[01:51] <karim> can i write my question in french
[01:51] <IdleOne> aa_: ubuntu is ever changing so I guess it isnt stable

[01:52] <OrT> !nl
[01:52] <ubotu> Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl
[01:52] <Mined^> is ubuntu something to prefer for a new linux user?
[01:52] <tom47> hheheheh
[01:52] <Mined^> im gonna give it a try
[01:52] <OrT> kewl
[01:52] <aa_> IdleOne: well dapper has had no updates for months, 
[01:52] <Freenet> a good question mined!
[01:52] <IdleOne> Mined^: it's worth a try yup
[01:52] <Aurvandill> Huzzah! I got Beryl up and running
[01:52] <Freenet> yeah its better for newbies?
[01:52] <SeraVitae> hmmm
[01:52] <Zaggynl> aa_, oh? I still get updates now and then (security mostly)
[01:52] <SeraVitae> i have dual sata harddrives and they are copying pretty slow in ubuntu
[01:52] <SeraVitae> arent sata drives meant to be like 300mb/sec or something
[01:53] <aa_> Zaggynl: ok, but security doesn't count, and they are only little
[01:53] <Aurvandill> Now... is there a good way to avoid hitting the reset button when Beryl crashes?
[01:53] <frogzoo> actually bumping up rmem & wmem settings doesn't hurt at all
[01:53] <SeraVitae> 11gb says its going to take 10 minutes... 1gb/a minute certianly isnt 300mb/sec
[01:53] <aa_> Zaggynl: oh actually I meant breezy
[01:53] <Zaggynl> aa_, that's old :o
[01:53] <aa_> Zaggynl: I am risking the upgrade to dapper
[01:53] <IdleOne> aa_: dapper is a LTS ( long term support ) release so I assume that they will update when there is something significant to update
[01:53] <DominikH> SeraVitae, sata can reach 300mb, but actually your motherboard cant
[01:53] <Aurvandill> Is there something akin to Windows' ctrl+alt+del in KDE?
[01:53] <DominikH> 70-80mb/sec is normal
[01:53] <SeraVitae> my motherboard has like 8 sata channels
[01:53] <aa_> old, but stable
[01:54] <Zaggynl> aa_, better install dapper from scratch, upgrading isn't the safest way I heard
[01:54] <cableroy> how can i run a command when i double click on a file with .tc exstesion?
[01:54] <HymnToLife> IdleOne, LTS doesn't mean it will get the latest versions of everything
[01:54] <HymnToLife> it will just get security updates
[01:54] <IdleOne> HymnToLife: I know thats what I said
[01:54] <Zaggynl> backports are nice though
[01:54] <aa_> Zaggynl: yikes it's a remote virtual machine, and I got way too much stuff on there
[01:54] <SeraVitae> 1100mb / 70 = 15 seconds.
[01:54] <aa_> I run edgy at home for the desktop
[01:54] <SeraVitae> its been going for ages and is up to 7:41 remaining.
[01:54] <karim> i was turning off my computer when i plug it out and when i restart it i have message error can you help me
[01:55] <AbeX> hi all :)
[01:55] <HymnToLife> karim, which error ?
[01:55] <IdleOne> aa_: if you rtun edgy at home why you asking us if it's stable?
[01:55] <IdleOne> run*

[01:55] <aa_> IdleOne: becuase I ever check that kind of thing, I just use it
[01:56] <HymnToLife> karim, fsck your filesystem manually
[01:56] <frogzoo> karim: someone kick out your power cable?
[01:56] <aa_> actually I pay for this crap, going to ask for an upgrade
[01:56] <karim> how can i do it
[01:56] <karim> yes
[01:56] <Zaggynl> good one, how do I check my disk except for the every 30 day check?
[01:56] <AbeX> i have gentoo compiled on my dedicated server, i have root access, working over ssh. can i remotely install ubuntu on that machine and save my important data? :)
[01:57] <frogzoo> Zaggynl: fsck /dev/evms/hda8 - (while it's unmounted)
[01:57] <Zaggynl> arf, it has to be unmounted eh?
[01:58] <frogzoo> Zaggynl: it will destroy all in its path if its done while mounted
[01:58] <Zaggynl> fsck up my disk eh
[01:58] <frogzoo> so it seems :(
[01:58] <frogzoo> stuff happens
[01:59] <karim> yes i told you
[01:59] <tom47> karim to be on the safe side i usually do my fsck-ing using a livecd
[02:00] <sashalap> hi, all

[02:20] <shifty> !difference between unbuntu and xunbuntu
[02:20] <ahoj> I just installed apache/mysql/php but I can't seem to access my public_html directory
[02:20] <ahoj> is this a chmod thing?
[02:20] <coolfinalfan> any good weather programs for Ubuntu 6.10??
[02:20] <Wyvern_> autoremove is an invalid option
[02:21] <paule_> guten tag
[02:21] <LinTux> Wyvern I have just used it m8, try sudo apt-get autoremove package name
[02:21] <ahoj> I always get 403 when accessing a file via http://localhost/~username/index.php
[02:21] <Wyvern_> but, the problem is that after I've done "apt-get remove samba --purge" (which seems to work fine), "apt-get install samba" fails with invoke-rc.d failing on "start"
[02:21] <ahoj> anyone got a clue for this?
[02:21] <coolfinalfan> any good weather programs for Ubuntu 6.10??

[02:32] <tonyyarusso> ahoj: Summary?

[02:33] <tonyyarusso> jono_: Okay.

[02:34] <Wyvern_> wee, thanks guys. samba work now. :)
[02:34] <Wyvern_> forgot to remove samba-common :P

[02:37] <lyy> linux box isn't automounting a usb drive..how do i manually go about mounting it?
[02:37] <yulewang> bulmer,  now i have only fc installed, so i can not show your my /etc/network/interface. I have 3 computers, for other two computers, I just install ubuntu, have my pppoeconf configured and try pon dsl-provider, and it works
[02:37] <SoulChild> hey... how do i romove left configuration files with the apt-get command ???
[02:37] <lyy> hello?
[02:38] <ahoj> tonyyarusso, didn't work, of course
[02:38] <lyy> it sure sucks not knowing how to use my computer :)

[02:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:38] <yulewang> bulmer, but this machine, i failed to do so, because  it says i do not have eth0. so i think my driver is not right.

[02:38] <tonyyarusso> ahoj: Is this a static page or a php one of some sort?
[02:38] <extreme> hello
[02:39] <ahoj> tonyyarusso, it's a php page
[02:39] <kane77> what are some work/time management utilities??
[02:39] <ahoj> let me try a html one
[02:39] <artmann> i am doing a :      sudo install -d /opt/eldk ppc4_xx
[02:39] <bulmer> yulewang: does your eth0 shows up in dmesg?
[02:40] <ahoj> tonyyarusso, no...html doesn't work either
[02:40] <artmann> and i get a "cannot create directory "blabla" : read-only file sys
[02:40] <ahoj> very strange
[02:40] <artmann> but i am sudo-ing...
[02:40] <artmann> any idea?
[02:40] <Lars_G> Question, I downloaded and burned a kubuntu 6.10 desktop CD, the program/distro/install tries to load an X and be all graphic and nice, and causes problems with the video in many machines I've tested it. If I get the plain ubuntu 6.10 install CD is there any way I can go back to my sweet old, working, dialog text based installer?
[02:40] <kane77> artmann, what fs is it?
[02:40] <tonyyarusso> ahoj: Check the apache config?  Check the permissions on the directory itself, that the files reside in?
[02:41] <artmann> ehm, standard i think
[02:41] <artmann> how to check?
[02:41] <yulewang> bulmer, i run modprobe e100/e1000/eepro100, and i can see it in dmesg. but still no eth0
[02:41] <ahoj> tonyyarusso, Apache config...hm. I could try that...but the directory and file permissions should be allright, I think

[02:43] <kane77> hmm... is it mounted as read and write?
[02:43] <tonyyarusso> lyy: Should mount automatically on plugin, if not, look for a device named /dev/sd(something), and use the mount command.
[02:43] <m4steRz> i have a problem with my ubuntu...
[02:43] <ahoj> tonyyarusso, nothing suspicious in the apache2.conf
[02:43] <bulmer> yulewang: maybe it is not eth0, you have other nic cards? maybe it is ath0?
[02:43] <lyy> tonyyarusso: thanks
[02:43] <tonyyarusso> !alternate | Lars_G
[02:43] <ubotu> Lars_G: 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.
[02:43] <tonyyarusso> yep :)
[02:43] <m4steRz> i have installed fglrx drivers, but now i want to use compiz with aixgl and "radeon" drivers
[02:43] <lyy> tonyyarusso: it didn't automount :(
[02:43] <m4steRz> how can i do?
[02:43] <lyy> so i'll do what you said
[02:44] <Lars_G> tonyyarusso: Thanks a lot. I hope the "alternate" CD is not discontinued.
[02:44] <tonyyarusso> Lars_G: Nope.  I use it all the time.
[02:44] <yulewang> bulmer, whatever it is , when i run pppoeconf, it should appear, however, when i try pppoeconf, it said "no ethernet card detected"
[02:44] <artmann> yep , rwx
[02:44] <ove> hi, is it possible to convert a .png file into a .svg file? anyone knows a program which does it or a plugin to gimp etc?
[02:45] <Lars_G> tonyyarusso: And you have decission power over the course of ubuntu?
[02:45] <Pici> ove: its possible, you might be able to do it using inkscape, but due to the nature of svg it probably wont turn out like you want it to
[02:45] <b08y> ove: ^^
[02:45] <yulewang> bulmer, and i surf the web, many people have the same problem with SUSE,Fedora etc said that when upgrade to 2.6.19/20 kernel, they can use it
[02:45] <b08y> #2
[02:46] <Pici> ove: because png is raster and svg is vector :/
[02:46] <tom47> m4steRz: perhaps you have a copy of xorg.conf from before you installed fglrx?
[02:46] <tonyyarusso> Lars_G: Well, I wouldn't say that, but I think it's safe to say the alternate cd will be with us for a long time :)
[02:46] <b08y> Pici: you are to fast, i just wana also give some one infos
[02:46] <WebDesigner> guys, which one is preferable for production server? edgy 6.10 or dapper 6.06 lts ?
[02:46] <Lars_G> good
[02:46] <Lars_G> btw is the LTS in 6.06 a default course of action, or something I'll have to pay for?
[02:46] <m4steRz> tom47: yes, i have
[02:46] <b08y> WebDesigner: dapper!
[02:46] <yulewang> bulmer,  but in ubuntu, i cannot rebuild the kernel because I can not get the gcc or header file or something from the internet
[02:47] <ove> Pici: ok, hmm, i can make .svg with incscape?
[02:47] <tom47> m4steRz: smply swap them over suitably renamed and reboot
[02:47] <b08y> WebDesigner: you dont have to pay anything
[02:47] <tonyyarusso> Lars_G: All versions are free.
[02:47] <tonyyarusso> WebDesigner: Probably dapper.
[02:47] <b08y> WebDesigner: just as u have to pay edgy xD
[02:47] <WebDesigner> guys, which one is preferable for production server? edgy 6.10 or dapper 6.06 lts ? for amd64 bit
[02:48] <m4steRz> tom47:  i tried yet, but when i launch compiz, all crash!
[02:48] <bulmer> yulewang: umm what shows up in your /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf  ?
[02:48] <Pici> ove: yes, inkscape should be in the repositories
[02:48] <Pici> !inkscape | ove
[02:48] <ubotu> ove: Inkscape is a powerful vector graphics drawing application - see http://www.inkscape.org/ for more
[02:48] <b08y> WebDesigner: also for amd64 dapper :=
[02:48] <m4steRz> tom47: i also deleted fglrx by /etc/modules
[02:48] <ove> Pici: thank you! :)
[02:48] <pengulord> i have today off becouse the school said we could have today off becouse of the bomb threat
[02:49] <m4steRz> tom47: and without fglrx, before, i used compiz with no problems
[02:49] <netzen> is anybody familiar with losaol?
[02:49] <Lars_G> tonyyarusso: But of course, an alternate or server cd will not work well as a rescue cd or will it?
[02:49] <netzen> does anybody know how to install that?
[02:49] <yulewang> bulmer, I remove the dapper installtion. now I only have fc installed. I just want to ask how can I use a 2.6.19 kernel without link to the internet
[02:50] <tom47> can someone tell m4steRz the command to efresh X11 please
[02:50] <tonyyarusso> Lars_G: Depends on the sort of rescue I think.
[02:50] <yulewang> bulmer, If i have the 2.6.19 kernel, maybe my problem will be solved
[02:50] <Lars_G> tonyyarusso: Basically, a working kernel with a small working set of utilities. (mount, cp, etc)
[02:50] <tonyyarusso> Lars_G: I think so at least.
[02:50] <Lars_G> I don't need parted, forensics, or deep stuff right now.
[02:51] <Lars_G> tonyyarusso: I'm downloading 6.06 (for the LTS), server CD, wish me luck
[02:51] <netzen> who know why I get this error: bash: python2.3: command not found   ????
[02:51] <Lars_G> tonyyarusso: I have an expensive server that barfed under gentoo last night, and it was the last straw
[02:51] <tonyyarusso> Lars_G: gl!
[02:51] <yunhual> 
[02:51] <b08y> netzen: wrong syntax maybe?
[02:52] <yunhual> php
[02:52] <netzen> b08y why?
[02:52] <yunhual> php
[02:52] <netzen> i have python2.3 installed
[02:52] <netzen> but it is not working from bash

[02:53] <Lars_G> yunhual: no problem
[02:53] <b08y> netzen: well you wanna start python console from bash? if so than just start "python"? not "python2.3"?
[02:53] <yunhual> sorry
[02:53] <Lars_G> it was an honest mistake
[02:53] <HymnToLife> Lars_G, that's japanese, methinks
[02:53] <netzen> how to start python?
[02:53] <yunhual> i want to ubuntu-cn, but i got mistake
[02:53] <netzen> writhing in console python?
[02:53] <Lars_G> HymnToLife: No. he uses no Kanna.
[02:53] <netzen> or from init.d?
[02:53] <Lars_G> HymnToLife: And the nick is chinese.
[02:53] <Pici> I cant see the symbols properly here anyway
[02:54] <netzen> how do i that b08y
[02:54] <yulewang> yunhual, 
[02:54] <Pici> netzen : what are you doing to get that error?
[02:54] <netzen> i have a script
[02:54] <netzen> in bash
[02:54] <netzen> cd /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/los-aol;python2.3 losaol
[02:54] <ucordes> how can i create user in text mode?
[02:55] <Lars_G> ucordes: useradd
[02:55] <netzen> adduser
[02:55] <netzen> or user add
[02:55] <ucordes> Lars_G: thanks you man
[02:55] <yunhual> i use aptitude install apache and aptitude install php5, then i open firefox, and typed 127.0.0.1/info.php. then firefox open a windows ask me if want to download info.php
[02:55] <Lars_G> ucordes: or adduser :)
[02:55] <ucordes> it very nice
[02:55] <netzen> Pici
[02:55] <Pici> netzen : do you have python 2.3 isntalled?
[02:55] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, I think that means that your php configuration isn't working correctly.
[02:55] <netzen> I write something did u see?
[02:55] <netzen> yes
[02:55] <netzen> it is
[02:56] <HymnToLife> yunhual, check your /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ dir
[02:56] <ucordes> Lars_G: lars can i take same home folder for two user?
[02:56] <netzen> may i set the python2.3 path somewhere?
[02:56] <HymnToLife> see if PHP appears in there
[02:56] <Lars_G> ucordes: you can, but I wouldn't recommend it
[02:56] <yunhual>  /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ have no php
[02:56] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, aha, you need to configure apache to use php. There are some simple guides on the net, but check /etc/apache2/mods-enabled
[02:56] <HymnToLife> yunhual, do you have the PHP mod installed ?
[02:56] <Pici> netzen : try just typing python instead of python2.3
[02:56] <b08y> netzen: well normaly you havent to set something when you install python through apt-get
[02:56] <ucordes> Lars_G: i only want to make uesr which has same name on server as client
[02:56] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, Then try check /etc/apache2/mods-available
[02:56] <Lars_G> ucordes: The permissologies to handle that are not rocket science, but tricky nonetheless
[02:57] <tom47> m4steRz: perhaps this will assist sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:57] <netzen> wait
[02:57] <artmann> omfg, i have overwritten my PATH via "export PATH=bla:bla", but forget to put the $PATH to the end....
[02:57] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, if mods-available lists php, then you can go into mods-enabled and create a symlink to mods-available.
[02:57] <yunhual> but i have typed aptitude install php5
[02:57] <artmann> any way, to revert this?

[02:58] <joefreire> ucordes,  yes

[02:59] <joefreire> ucordes,  i'm play only off line
[02:59] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, you need to install the apache-php package also I think. I can't remember the name, wait one second whilst I look it up.

[03:11] <Mba7eth> hi all
[03:11] <b08y> joefreire: well, try this, open a shell navigate to your install file and run "cedega installwhatever.exe"
[03:11] <warlock> Byan, well I dont think so. The servers are on 200/200mbit from TDC songs, funny thing is that the server freezelags from time to time, and the ping raises to 50'ish from 10'ish
[03:11] <joefreire> ok i try

[03:14] <Rumpanzle> soundray: no .xsession and find....doesn't find anything...
[03:14] <b08y> joefreire: its quite unusual that "nothing"-happens

[03:18] <ucordes> cedega is commercial
[03:18] <ucordes> and you did not pay
[03:18] <joefreire> b08y, u play cs in ubuntu?
[03:18] <naknomik> i have ubuntu 6.06 LTS server installed. I have no GUI (X) installed. How do I upgraded to latest ubuntu 6.10?
[03:18] <ucordes> cs on wine plays fine
[03:18] <battlesquid> ubotu is the bedst os ever!!
[03:18] <b08y> joefreire: no, but i have some exp with cedega and gaiming
[03:18] <joefreire> ucordes, but how install cs in wine
[03:19] <ucordes> setup.exe
[03:19] <joefreire> b08y, need for speed uderground 2 run?
[03:19] <battlesquid> but wheres the exe files?
[03:19] <tom47> naknomik the best route, if you want the desktop and it sounded like you do, is to download the latest livecd and completely reinstall
[03:20] <pontus> how do I get full rights to write and read on all discs?
[03:20] <b08y> joefreire: dont know :) just look at cedega homepage @supported games
[03:20] <naknomik> tom47: No I don't want desktop. This is a mail server. That's why there's no X installed. What I really want is install bacula 2.0, but I am getting dependency problems. Hence an attempt to upgrade to 6.10
[03:21] <tom47> maknomik ok
[03:21] <Lunar_Lamp> naknomik, there are definitely some guides that explain it, but I think it's fairly simple.
[03:22] <Lunar_Lamp> Nakkel, along the lines of just editing your /etc/apt/sources.list and doing a dist-upgrade
[03:22] <naknomik> Lunar_Lamp: I remember reading it on the wiki but can't seem to find it now.
[03:22] <naknomik> has anybody here tried installing bacula 2.0 on Ubuntu?

[03:23] <Lunar_Lamp> naknomik, http://www.debianadmin.com/upgrade-ubuntu-dapper-to-ubuntu-edgy-eft.html <== Method 2
[03:23] <pontus> please
[03:23] <thoreauputic> heh
[03:23] <pontus> how do I get full rights to write and read on all discs?
[03:24] <pontus> I can't use my own hard drive
[03:24] <soundray> Rumpanzle: in gconf-editor, check /desktop/gnome/url-handlers for an entry called "file". Remove it or make nautilus handle it.
[03:24] <thoreauputic> pontus: umm - be more specific - what are you trying to do?
[03:24] <pontus> I'm trying to copy data from another computer (I have the right to do this), but it says I don't have the right to write to the disc
[03:25] <yunhual> hi, i have removed all apache2 and php5 module, and then reinstall apache2 and php5, i get php5.conf and get php5.load under the mods-available directory
[03:25] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, :=) That's good!
[03:25] <nikin_> is there a way to have a real transparent-background terminal in ubuntu?
[03:25] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, now you just need to create a symlink in mods-enabled to the php files in mods-available.
[03:25] <thoreauputic> pontus: what method are you using to copy? And what OS is the other machine?
[03:25] <yunhual> my php module seems work correctry
[03:25] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, then restart apache2
[03:25] <kelsin> nikin_: installing compiz or beryl
[03:26] <yunhual> thanks all of you. thank you.
[03:26] <kelsin> nikin_: the 3d enabled, compositing windows managers
[03:26] <Lunar_Lamp> yunhual, sorry that we weren't that much help in reality though ;-)
[03:26] <pontus> drag and drop, from a windows machine
[03:26] <pontus> im doing it on this computer
[03:26] <nikin_> i tryed beryl but it is not working with my GFX card
[03:26] <thoreauputic> pontus: do you know about samba?

[03:26] <pontus> I've heard the name
[03:26] <thoreauputic> !samba| pontus
[03:26] <ubotu> pontus: 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
[03:27] <kelsin> nikin_: what graphics card do you have?
[03:27] <soundray> thoreauputic: pontus won't need samba
[03:27] <pontus> well, I don't think the problem is the network, but my permissions on my own machine
[03:27] <pontus> I can copy to other discs
[03:27] <Pici> pontus :you're trying to copy to a linux computer? if so to what directory?
[03:27] <soundray> pontus: copy the files from the Windows share to /home/pontus (or whatever your home dir is called)
[03:27] <joefreire> b08y, install cs
[03:27] <thoreauputic> soundray: in theory he should be able to use a default install to transfer *from* windows, yes
[03:28] <joefreire> b08y, and now
[03:28] <naknomik> Lunar_Lamp: thx
[03:28] <pontus> but I want the files on a disc, which I created solely to hold files (backup)
[03:28] <soundray> thoreauputic: the problem description indicates that that is what he wants.
[03:28] <thoreauputic> soundray: true :) I'll leave him in your capable hands :)
[03:28] <b08y> joefreire: sry dude, time is over i have to leave, afk now, sry
[03:29] <roberto> jak odblokowa poczenia przychodzce w ubuntu
[03:29] <soundray> pontus: then you should create a user writable directory inside the backup partition:
[03:29] <joefreire> ok
[03:29] <pontus> how do i do that?
[03:29] <soundray> pontus: 'sudo mkdir /backup/userdir ; chown pontus.pontus /backup/userdir', then try to drag and drop again
[03:30] <soundray> pontus: assuming that your backup disk is mounted to /backup
[03:30] <pontus> it's called /data
[03:30] <roberto> jak odblokowa poczenia przychodzce w ubuntu (brak poczenia)
[03:30] <soundray> pontus: 'sudo mkdir /data/userdir ; chown pontus.pontus /data/userdir' ;)

[03:31] <ubotu> Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[03:31] <kelsin> uttara_: mkswap
[03:31] <uttara_> thanks!!!
[03:31] <soundray> uttara_: you don't create a partition with mkfs.
[03:31] <kelsin> uttara_: then you can activate it with swapon
[03:31] <roberto> do you spike polish
[03:31] <kelsin> uttara_: true, true, that only creates the "file systeM' not the partition
[03:31] <soundray> uttara_: kelsin assumes that you already have a swap partition
[03:31] <kelsin> soundray: thanks :)
[03:31] <thoreauputic> robert_: no, this is an english channel
[03:32] <fredl> hi guys, I have just inserted a USB stick into my computer, it sees it alright and automounts it, but when I try to do anything on it it's read-only

[03:32] <soundray> !pl | roberto
[03:32] <ubotu> roberto: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[03:32] <fredl> how can I make the USB stick writable?
[03:32] <pontus> nothing happend, no new directory
[03:32] <thoreauputic> fredl: is the lock off on the stick?
[03:32] <fredl> lock??
[03:32] <fredl> Hmm
[03:33] <Jedrick> i need help my vlc doesn't have audio
[03:33] <uttara_> i have an 8gb space on my hard disk. I want to create a 512mb swap space.
[03:33] <thoreauputic> fredl: most sticks have a lock...
[03:33] <soundray> pontus: where did you enter the mkdir command?
[03:33] <pontus> terminal
[03:33] <pontus> aha
[03:33] <fredl> checking..
[03:33] <pontus> i must go inside the disc in the terminal first?

[03:34] <kralj_humora> CCV
[03:34] <thoreauputic> kralj_humora: that's spam
[03:34] <kelsin> uttara_: is this a hard drive that you are actively using at the moment, or one that you're going to install on soon and it's unused now?
[03:34] <uttara_> the 2nd one!!
[03:34] <roberto> how off firewall  ubuntu?
[03:35] <uttara_> it is unused
[03:35] <fredl> heh thoreauputic that was easy, tnx :)
[03:35] <soundray> !firestarter | roberto
[03:35] <ubotu> roberto: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[03:35] <pontus> ah now it's there
[03:35] <kelsin> uttara_: you can look at gparted (program in the ubuntu repositories) to help you creat partitions on that drive
[03:35] <pontus> and it works, thanks alot for the help!
[03:36] <uttara_> ok

[03:36] <eltech> whats the best way to get the best of compression on a folder? to gzip and then zcat?
[03:36] <kralj_humora> a vas masala ima
[03:37] <danilos> kralj_humora: i nije ti neki humor
[03:37] <soundray> pontus: when you have permission problems like that, you can run any program with sudo to have full admin rights. Be careful, though, because a small typo can render your system unusable.
[03:37] <kelsin> eltech: bzip2 compresses smaller than gzip (on a normal basis) but can take a lot longer to perform the compres and uncompresss
[03:37] <fredl> hmm is it wise to make a filesystem on the whole device (ie. /dev/sdf instead of /dev/sdf1) coz /dev/sdf1 doesn't seem to exist
[03:37] <thoreauputic> danilos: what language is that ?
[03:37] <kapowdude> elo?

[03:38] <danilos> thoreauputic: it depends on where you live, but it can be any of Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian, and the guy is just throwing insults around and has a nickname of "humour king"
[03:38] <pontus> ok, but I guess chown was the command I was looking for
[03:38] <thoreauputic> danilos: thanks
[03:39] <fredl> voila, 512Mb extra filesystem for my OpenWRT router.
[03:39] <soundray> fredl: normally you should create a partition. Use 'sudo fdisk -l' to see if there is one already by another name.
[03:39] <danilos> thoreauputic: no wonder he left when I answered "your humour is not that good" :)
[03:39] <fredl> that's one hell of a lot more usefull than trying to cram a few MP3's on it :)

[03:40] <Lunar_Lamp> SurfnKid, there are some good guides to getting broadcom cards working at www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:41] <Byan> soundray: I have a router with USB.. it runs ubuntu =P
[03:41] <fredl> soundray, and it's running Linux now. 89 euro's for a nice Linux server with an antenna!
[03:41] <soundray> Byan: bet you paid more than fredl did though ;)
[03:41] <Byan> soundray: it's a PII 400mhz.. I got it for free =P
[03:42] <nano-> Just upgraded to Ubuntu Feisty. totem-mozilla hijacked my browser which lead to not being able to play most stuff I usually watch online. Isn't it better to default to vlc's mozilla plugin? It actually works compared to totem. Just because it uses gstreamer and is "blessed" perhaps doesn't require it to be higher prioritised than something that works?
[03:42] <soundray> Byan: oh well... fredl's uses less power though!
[03:42] <fredl> soundray, well I see that the USB stick now has a partition /dev/sdf1 on it
[03:42] <nano-> Just a thought.
[03:42] <fredl> Byan - and mine boots a lot faster :P
[03:43] <deg0nz> hi @ll!!!
[03:43] <aalhamad_> ohh..
[03:43] <aalhamad_> wait..
[03:43] <aalhamad_> this nick name is not register..
[03:43] <soundray> fredl: if it's fat32 or ext2, you may have to install extra stuff to make it usable on the router.
[03:44] <fredl> soundray, well I first wanna mount it on my ubuntu box to put stuff on there.
[03:44] <fredl> problem being, I don't have /dev/sdf1
[03:44] <fredl> should I just mknod that??
[03:44] <soundray> fredl: hold on...
[03:44] <Jedrick> i need help my vlc doesn't have audio
[03:44] <soundray> fredl: do you have edgy?
[03:45] <fredl> yeah
[03:45] <soundray> fredl: is the stick brand new?
[03:45] <fredl> well, no.
[03:45] <fredl> I just fdisk'ed it and made a partition on it
[03:45] <shifty> can 4gigg space install ubuntu ?
[03:46] <mcquaid> i have an issue with incorrect free disk space being reported by df
[03:46] <soundray> fredl: okay, unplug and replug  it to see if a /dev/sdf1 is created
[03:46] <mcquaid> I get  73307164  70563536    509308
[03:46] <HymnToLife> shifty, yes
[03:46] <mcquaid> which if you do the math s/b about 2.6 gigs free when gparted reports
[03:46] <HymnToLife> but don't plan to install much extra software
[03:46] <incorrect> i never reported anything about your free disk space mcquaid and you can't prove it
[03:46] <aalhamad_> how do i link a nick name with my original nick name?
[03:46] <mcquaid> i just did an fsck but didnt fix it
[03:47] <mcquaid> heh

[03:51] <WebDesigner> hello, whatis the different between ubuntu 6.06 and 6.06.1 ?
[03:51] <soundray> Jedrick: what kind of phone?
[03:51] <_`XeOn_> !ask | WebDesigner
[03:51] <ubotu> WebDesigner: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:51] <Jedrick> soundray: just a motorola L7
[03:52] <pbureau> mournign soundray  wanted to say thanks for the printer problems issues I had yesterday and BTW for this HP printer using gnome manager I had to run it through socket:// and not iip (just as a thank you return info)  cheers and thanks again for your help last night
[03:52] <WebDesigner> hello, what's the different between ubuntu 6.06 and 6.06.1 ?
[03:52] <Pici> _`XeOn_ : he did ask a question
[03:52] <Bobsworth_> try moto4lin
[03:52] <WebDesigner> err.. i am asking..
[03:52] <Crescendo> 6.06.1 - Ubuntu SP1?!
[03:52] <_`XeOn_> no sense
[03:52] <K3rl0u4rn> heelo guys, would it be possible to add universe and multiverse repository from command line (non interactive mode) ?
[03:52] <soundray> Jedrick: apt-cache search throws up a couple of hopefuls:

[03:52] <HymnToLife> WebDesigner, 6.06.1 has some updated packages
[03:52] <fredl> a character known as a '?' or a 'question mark' usually indicates a 'question'

[03:52] <WebDesigner> uhm
[03:52] <HymnToLife> if you installed 6.06, they will be installed when you normally upgrade

[03:53] <WebDesigner> thanks
[03:53] <Pici> WebDesigner : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=233444 contains a list of updates
[03:53] <Jedrick> soundray:  what will i search?
[03:53] <yunhual> hi, Error: mysql extension not loaded, i got this error message, why my php connect to mysql
[03:53] <WebDesigner> doesnt it mean, the 64bit bugs is solved under 6.06.1 ?
[03:54] <Pici> WebDesigner : check out my link, I didnt look through the whole thing for specific issues
[03:54] <soundray> Jedrick: I just did 'apt-cache search motorola phone'. Look at the line from ubotu ^^ about moto4lin
[03:54] <fredl> well, 10Mb of 32Mb used on my AP, with 500Mb left on the USB stick, not too shabby.
[03:54] <SurfnKid> hello It appears edgy  has a broken ndiswrapper, what to do now?
[03:54] <SurfnKid> what should i use
[03:54] <SurfnKid> !ndiswrapper
[03:54] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:55] <yunhual> but i have modified php.ini extension=mysql.so
[03:55] <fredl> Hmm, I should find a way to boot the AP from the USB stick though.
[03:55] <Jedrick> ok
[03:55] <WebDesigner> Pici: guess the 64bit but will never been solved..
[03:55] <fredl> that'd be cool.
[03:55] <Bobsworth_> I fixed ndiswrapper in edgy by commenting out the line in the source that it was complaining about
[03:55] <kapowdude> Hey... i cant find xserver-xgl in the package manager
[03:55] <sholden> I'm trying to use my 720p TV as a monitor, but I cant see widescreen resolution.  I'm using a GeForce3 video card, and can display in 1360x768 in windows, but I cant that resolution is not listed in ubuntu.  Does anyone know how I can correct this?  Any help much appreciated.
[03:56] <Bobsworth_> are you compiling ndiswrapper from source?
[03:56] <wikiadm> i am having issues starting my apache server... i just reinstalled ubuntu.. and i installed apache and then apache 2 then removed apache... but now the webserver will not start up at all
[03:56] <soundray> fredl: that would be slow, though. The Asus AP has USB 1.1 only as far as I know
[03:56] <Pici> WebDesigner : if you know the specific bug, you could search for it on !launchpad to see if they have a fix
[03:56] <iketurner> the config is looking for apache instead of apache2
[03:56] <iketurner> need to specify the apache2 path
[03:57] <wikiadm> iketurner, how do i do that?
[03:57] <fredl> soundray, yeah but that's okay for dev environments though.

[03:59] <Bobsworth_> type sudo moto4lin
[03:59] <soundray> Jedrick: 1) look at docs in /usr/share/doc/moto4lin ; 2) look at the output of 'dpkg -L moto4lin | grep bin' for executable files contained in that package.
[03:59] <Bobsworth_> moto4lin needs to be run as root
[03:59] <OrT> hurray for community
[04:00] <soundray> fredl: it's a mini fileserver with routing, ssh, email and various other capabilities
[04:00] <fredl> soundray, no antenna?
[04:00] <Jedrick> soundray:  ok i open the moto4lin but i can't connect it.
[04:00] <soundray> fredl: I'm getting one with; there is a version without it.
[04:00] <Bobsworth_> Jedrick: click on settings
[04:01] <soundray> Jedrick: I can't give you more specific help because I don't have a Motorola phone. You will have to read the docs.

[04:02] <thoreauputic> JuJuBee: install openssh-server
[04:02] <iketurner> first make sure it is installed
[04:02] <HymnToLife> phiqtion, not with a Live CD
[04:03] <JuJuBee> Thanks

[04:03] <ubotu> phiqtion: 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.
[04:03] <soundray> Jedrick: lsusb
[04:03] <Common_> Jedrick  :  use    fdisk -l

[04:03] <Bnirkow> thoreauputic: with this guide i can`t install compiz
[04:04] <Bnirkow> thoreauputic: i`m on dapper
[04:04] <thoreauputic> Bnirkow: then I don't know - I haven't tried it as I have a rubbish onboard card :)
[04:04] <snail> could someone point me to insturctions for installing edgy on a small machine (live cd won't boot)
[04:04] <mindmedic> I asked earlier if anyone else running feisty got a SegFault when starting firefox. I think I found the problem now. The webdeveloper extension was installed (with apt).. After I removed it everything works fine again. Should I file this as a bug?
[04:04] <thoreauputic> snail: try the "alternate" CD
[04:05] <Lunar_Lamp> snail, have you tried the alternate cd? It doesn't install a GUI by default.
[04:05] <soundray> snail: listen to thoreauputic, or get xubuntu
[04:05] <HymnToLife> Lunar_Lamp, yes it does
[04:05] <Jedrick> ok i see it now.. Bus 001 Device 002: ID 22b8:4902 Motorola PCS E398 GSM Phone <-- now where is the device location?
[04:05] <shifty> xubuntu is like

[04:05] <thoreauputic> Lunar_Lamp: well, it does install a GUI actually - it just doesn't use a GUI to install it :)
[04:05] <shifty> lite version ?
[04:05] <OrT> yes, shifty, using xfce
[04:05] <kelsin> snail: I just installed from the alternate cd, the command line only is an option right from the boot menu
[04:06] <Bobsworth_> Jedrick:  your phone should be in  ttyACM0
[04:06] <shifty> i am like a linux cake :o
[04:06] <Lunar_Lamp> HymnToLife, thoreauputic sorry, I was thinking of the server install.
[04:06] <snail> i take that back. sorry
[04:06] <kelsin> snail: you can download the iso for the cd right on the main ubuntu download pages
[04:06] <snail> found it now
[04:06] <Derek> hi, does anyone now how to edit the  /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[04:06] <Bnirkow> who can help me to install compiz on dapper??
[04:06] <soundray> snail: how much RAM does your small machine have?
[04:06] <pbureau> Derek,  sudo pico /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:06] <thoreauputic> Derek: use  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:07] <Derek> thank you
[04:07] <belkin> what the gui archiver ?
[04:07] <thoreauputic> Derek: it's the better way
[04:07] <snail> soundray: 256 MG i think
[04:07] <OrT> thoreauputic what does that do?
[04:07] <pbureau> Derek,  Hes right his way is better
[04:07] <Bobsworth_> You run moto4lin and in the preferences (Connection), you edit your ACM device in /dev/tty/ACM0 in P2K Vendor ID: 22b8 and in P2K Product ID: 4901. You can update these values by clicking in the Update List, selecting your motorola device and setting it as p2k device. Note, that sometimes the Product ID is reffered as 4902, this results to not being able to connect your phone, so you should manualy edit it with 4901 value. A
[04:07] <Bobsworth_> s far as I've seen, for AT protocol the product ID should be 4902.
[04:07] <Bobsworth_> Once you are done just hit the connection button and will appear:
[04:07] <Derek> ok, will do
[04:07] <thoreauputic> OrT: it walks you through X config
[04:07] <soundray> snail: not too small then.
[04:07] <OrT> ah ok, thanks
[04:08] <thoreauputic> OrT: accept defaults except ones you want to change
[04:08] <Common_>  /server irc.freenode.net
[04:08] <Derek> wait, what do i do now?
[04:08] <thoreauputic> Common_: you are already here :)
[04:08] <Derek> im just trying to update my graphics card drivers
[04:08] <thoreauputic> Derek: see my post above - accept defaults execept ones you need to change
[04:08] <JuJuBee> I am trying to use scp to grab a directory that has spaces in the name  "Windows XP".  I used scp -r user@my.box.ip.address:/var/vm/Windows\ XP ./  but it tells me that Windows directory does not exist.
[04:09] <Derek> oh, ok
[04:09] <thoreauputic> Derek: which drivers?
[04:09] <kelsin> JuJuBee: I think I got around that the other day by replacing each space with "\\\ " without the quoes
[04:09] <kelsin> JuJuBee: quotes*
[04:09] <JuJuBee> 3 slashes and a space?
[04:09] <thoreauputic> Derek: if nvidia or ati, see !ati or !nvidia
[04:09] <kelsin> JuJuBee: I think so
[04:09] <Derek> ATI x1300 drivers, i was trying to follow step by step on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[04:09] <Bobsworth_> Jedrick: http://moto4lin.sourceforge.net/wiki/Program_Configuration
[04:09] <soundray> JuJuBee: that's annoying. There is a proper way to do it, but I always just use wildcards, ie. user@my.box.ip.address:/var/vm/Windows*XP
[04:10] <JuJuBee> Ah, escape the slash and the space...
[04:10] <thoreauputic> Derek: OK
[04:10] <kelsin> JuJuBee: yeah, I think that worked the other day for me
[04:10] <thoreauputic> Derek: and that isn't working?
[04:10] <Jedrick> Bobsworth_: ok
[04:10] <Derek> well, it said to edit the  /etc/X11/xorg.conf file but, thats where i got stuck on how to edit it
[04:11] <JuJuBee> It does, but I am getting permission problems...
[04:11] <soundray> Derek: in a terminal, 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[04:11] <Derek> ok
[04:12] <Bobsworth_> Derek: what do you want to do with xorg?
[04:12] <thoreauputic> pbureau: by the way, have a look at  ls -l /usr/bin/pico - there's no pico on ubuntu, it's a symlink to nano:)
[04:12] <Derek> add Section "Extensions"         Option  "Composite" "Disable" EndSection  (only this would be formatted)
[04:13] <Bobsworth_> Derek: are you trying to get Beryl working?
[04:13] <soundray> thoreauputic: there's some history behind that -- I think the pico license allows no distribution of modified versions, so they cloned it as nano
[04:13] <Derek> nah, graphics drivers for ATI x1300
[04:13] <thoreauputic> soundray: correct
[04:13] <Bobsworth_> ok
[04:14] <vitriol> anybody know if amarok can support .m4a files?
[04:14] <kelsin> vitriol: most programs can play .m4a unencrypted files, but most often .m4a is iTunes encrypted in which case most players can not
[04:14] <thoreauputic> soundray: I think it's funny that the symlink exists - but useful I guess :)
[04:15] <kelsin> vitriol: so it's not the m4a file format, it's the DRM encryption also included (same with .wma and other formats)
[04:15] <pbureau> thoreauputic,  interesting I thype pico <filename> and pico comes up... or am I just not realizing I am using nano?
[04:15] <vitriol> kelsin: i'm sorry i got my programs mixed up
[04:15] <vitriol> kelsin: do you know if k3b supports .m4a?
[04:15] <Bobsworth_> Derek: sudo echo -e '\nSection "Extensions"\n    Option "Composite" "Enable"\nEndSection' >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:15] <thoreauputic> pbureau: you are using nano
[04:15] <kelsin> vitriol: :) Oh, sorry, don't know
[04:15] <vitriol> kelsin: i want k3b to convert my .m4a files to an audio cd format
[04:15] <Derek> ok
[04:15] <vitriol> ohhh
[04:15] <thoreauputic> pbureau: unless you somehow installed pine
[04:15] <Bobsworth_> Derek: put disble instead of enable
[04:16] <thoreauputic> pbureau: which is not in ubuntu either :)
[04:16] <Bobsworth_> *disable
[04:16] <Bobsworth_> sudo echo -e '\nSection "Extensions"\n    Option "Composite" "Disable"\nEndSection' >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:17] <Derek> it said permission denied
[04:17] <thoreauputic> pbureau: look top left - do you see "GNU nano" ?
[04:17] <belkin> wtf does printer calibration mean ?
[04:17] <pbureau> thoreauputic,  yep
[04:17] <Bobsworth_> Derek: type sudo su first
[04:17] <thoreauputic> pbureau: :)
[04:18] <thoreauputic> Bobsworth_: preferably sudo -i for a root shell
[04:18] <pbureau> thoreauputic,  force of habit,, nano or pico they both work same way..
[04:18] <thoreauputic> pbureau: yes they do
[04:18] <soundray> belkin: it means that you compare printed colors with a reference card and modify driver settings until they match. No need to swear btw.
[04:18] <Derek> ok, i did that, i dident get an error, but it dident say it worked either, it jsut brought me back to command line
[04:19] <thoreauputic> Derek: silence is good in *nix :)
[04:19] <Bobsworth_> Derek: check xorg directly with sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:19] <belkin> soundray hmm how do i do that ? the printer isnt working anymore
[04:19] <two|face> hey where can I put a command to run a command on startup?
[04:19] <soundray> belkin: get it working again before you do any calibration.
[04:19] <thoreauputic> two|face:  /etc/rc.local is one optipon
[04:19] <thoreauputic> *option
[04:20] <belkin> soundray so i might need to take the calibration out ?
[04:20] <Derek> yup silence is good :) it worked!
[04:20] <thoreauputic> two|face: just be sure to read that file, and make it executable
[04:20] <thoreauputic> two|face: and make sure it exits cleanly :)
[04:20] <soundray> belkin: your question does not make sense
[04:21] <belkin> soundray how do i get it working again ?
[04:21] <guerrillawon> Does anyone know the command line syntax to invoke ubuntos default torrent client?
[04:22] <Bnirkow> who can help me?? i want to get linux-dri-modules-2.6.15-27-386 and i can`t find it
[04:22] <soundray> belkin: the most frequent reason for a printer not working is missing paper, followed by empty ink/toner, followed by paper jams.
[04:22] <thoreauputic> two|face: unless you mean on login - in that case make a ~/.gnomerc file with your command in it (assuming you are using gnome)
[04:23] <gb_> hi
[04:24] <soundray> pbureau: I skipped the pulled power plug ;)
[04:24] <belkin> soundray it says clear jam and press ok .. and next says print cartridge cradle is stuck
[04:24] <Lord_Flasheart> hi i am trying to install kubuntu with the alternative install cd
[04:24] <thoreauputic> belkin: so, umm, check the cartridge ?
[04:24] <Derek> ok, now im supposed to run the drivers, by doing this sudo ln -sf bash /bin/sh bash ./ati-driver-installer-<version>.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/edgy sudo ln -sf dash /bin/sh
[04:25] <Lord_Flasheart> i would like to install it on an a nvidia software raid 1 array with two hard drives
[04:25] <belkin> thoreauputic where is that ? :)
[04:25] <belkin> ahh
[04:25] <thoreauputic> belkin: *cough*
[04:25] <belkin> ok
[04:25] <belkin> might be empty
[04:25] <soundray> belkin: there may be a trouble shooting guide in the printed docs that came with the printer. Alternatively, look at the manufacturer's web site.
[04:25] <Lord_Flasheart> but the 'configure software raid' option doesn't appear in the installer
[04:25] <john> how do u disable SMP?
[04:25] <Bobsworth_> belkin: what printer are you using
[04:25] <Lord_Flasheart> does anyone know how to do it?
[04:25] <Lord_Flasheart> it happens automagically in fedora and suse, which is annoying
[04:25] <belkin> Bobsworth_ hp photosmart 1115
[04:26] <john> any good tutorials or anyone know how to do it,  disable SMP in the kernel....?
[04:26] <thoreauputic> Lord_Flasheart: not an option in the desktop installer I think - I think you need the alternative CD
[04:26] <Lord_Flasheart> thoreauputic: i am using the alternative cd
[04:26] <Bobsworth_> belkin: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/fastFaqLiteDocument?lc=en&cc=uk&dlc=en&docname=bpy20918
[04:27] <thoreauputic> Lord_Flasheart: then i don't know
[04:27] <Bobsworth_> ssue
[04:27] <Bobsworth_> While printing from an HP Photosmart printer, the printer screen displays Print cartridge cradle is stuck / clear jam and then press OK.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_> The printer may also make grinding sounds. This can occur after a paper jam when another printer part blocks the cradle.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_> Solution
[04:27] <Bobsworth_> Follow these instructions to adjust the clutch on the printer.
[04:27] <rogue780> how to a get rid of a cron job that I created with crontab -e
[04:27] <rogue780> ?
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>    1.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>       Disconnect the USB cable.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>    2.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>       Press the printer power button to turn off the printer.
[04:27] <rogue780> nevermind
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>    3.
[04:27] <rogue780> rtfm....
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>       Disconnect the power cord from the back of the printer.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>    4.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>       Open the top cover of the printer.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>    5.
[04:27] <Bobsworth_>       Remove the print cartridges from the printer.
[04:27] <pbureau> Belkin pop the top open, change cartrige and check paper jam insidce the roller (I have a 2600 myself)
[04:27] <thoreauputic> Bobsworth_: don't paste
[04:27] <john> 6. rm -Rf /
[04:27] <Bobsworth_> #
[04:28] <Bobsworth_> Press the clutch firmly towards the back of the printer, while rolling the wheels in the back of the printer upward two full rotations.
[04:28] <Bobsworth_> #
[04:28] <Bobsworth_> Release the clutch and roll the wheels up two more rotations.
[04:28] <Bobsworth_> #
[04:28] <belkin> pbureau i dont have any more cartrige , there might be empty thats why i get the error isnt it ?
[04:28] <soundray> Bobsworth_: try /part
[04:28] <shifty> lol
[04:28] <soundray> belkin: it sounds like a very reasonable explanation.
[04:28] <belkin> pbureau shouldnt they move when i start the printer ? because they not moving anymore like they did until a few mins ago
[04:28] <pbureau> belkin,  you dont have a cartridge in your printer and you expect it to WORk ? hellllloooooo please engage brain activities please..

[05:06] <GillaGal> Does anyone successfully have Beryl working on a Thinkpad T23?  (s3 supersavage vid card)
[05:06] <HymnToLife> CirrusTheVirus, just ask, we'll help if we can
[05:06] <bur[n] er> GillaGal, check the forums or wiki?
[05:06] <GillaGal> yes, I have.
[05:06] <bur[n] er> I don't think s3 works with aiglx?
[05:07] <n3rdism> beryl is the shit
[05:07] <GillaGal> s3 does have 3d acceleration... so...
[05:07] <bur[n] er> GillaGal, what happens when you try?
[05:07] <bur[n] er> beryl is fun, but slow and breaks wine for me
[05:08] <GillaGal> bur[n] er:  when it goes to switch over to run beryl, the screen goes black and then exits back to the login.
[05:08] <GillaGal> no error... no nothing.
[05:08] <n3rdism> beryl isnt slow.. but yah wine and beryl dont like each other
[05:08] <d34l3r> lol

[05:08] <j2daosh> i have a rather pesky problem i need help with desperately
[05:08] <bur[n] er> GillaGal,  bummer... does glxgears work?  did you edit your xorg.conf to add the lines about "Composite" extension?
[05:09] <j2daosh> i have the intel 965 board with the jmicron controller
[05:09] <j2daosh> i have managed to get ubunut installed by turning off the usb support
[05:09] <Freenet> anyone here!?

[05:09] <bur[n] er> n3rdism, just curious... you running 0.2.0 beta 2?  it is significantly faster than 0.1.5 for me
[05:09] <j2daosh> only the pata drive is being recognized as a hdd
[05:09] <CirrusTheVirus> HymnToLife: so ,i saw the Server ISO doesnt installs X for me,and like to know if thats easy to install and if there is MP3 support
[05:09] <bur[n] er> GillaGal, just look at "BerylOnEdgy" on the wiki
[05:09] <Bnirkow> bur[n] er:what system You have??
[05:10] <j2daosh> the other 2 sata drives are recognized as sda and sdb
[05:10] <n3rdism> bur[n] er beta
[05:10] <Bnirkow> bur[n] er:i mean distro
[05:10] <bur[n] er> Bnirkow, ?

[05:10] <xantian> hello
[05:10] <n3rdism> what card do you have bur[n] er?
[05:10] <HymnToLife> CirrusTheVirus, if you want a GUI, don't use the server ISO :p

[05:12] <CirrusTheVirus> HymnToLife :I d like to have GUI when I need it.system is powerfull enouigh not to compromise performance [A64 3000+,1GB RAM] 
[05:12] <pettern> does anyone know the reason for the flash problems on ubuntu?
[05:12] <n3rdism> the maturity of both beryl and open-sourced nvidia drivers have made the use of beryl extremely easy for me
[05:12] <LjL> !beryl
[05:12] <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
[05:12] <bur[n] er> j2daosh, can you tell your BIOS to boot your sata drive?  does grub load?
[05:12] <Bnirkow> bur[n] er: so i will update to edgy
[05:12] <xantian> i have a problem: USB Printer Epson RX420 + Cups. Cups  says no localprinters found. HAL says Epson is Ready. Printing under XP works fine. UBUNTU (7.04)

[05:12] <sloncho> hi. where I can find package for fwbuilder 2.1.8. The one supplied in universe is 2.0.9. And compiling it will be overkill.
[05:12] <bur[n] er> Bnirkow, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[05:12] <d34l3r> sloncho, why do you need a firewallbuilder?
[05:12] <j2daosh> i can tell it to but when grub trys to load it gives me an error about my pata drive not being there
[05:12] <j2daosh> my bios sees it there
[05:12] <cmt^^> How do I properly set up multiple domains to run from the same server (1 single IP) using apache?
[05:12] <Bnirkow> bur[n] er: when i`m running livecd of edgy. it stops on ACPI
[05:13] <j2daosh> but its the one connected to the jmicron controller
[05:13] <LjL> xantian: 7.04 is not a release version, it's only meant for testing. please use #ubuntu+1 for help with it, if you still want to use it
[05:13] <sloncho> d34l3r - ahmm, to build complex firewall rules in a GUI
[05:13] <bur[n] er> j2daosh, sorry man... I wish I had sata drives to talk from experience, but I'm rockin some slow IDE
[05:13] <xantian> LjL: thx im testing this :P
[05:13] <Bnirkow> LjL: 7.04 are stoping on mount of root system :)
[05:13] <bur[n] er> Bnirkow, try the boot flags of "noacpi" ?
[05:13] <phiqtion> how do i know if my swap space is activated?
[05:13] <d34l3r> sloncho, why dont you secure you PC instead of using firewall rules?
[05:13] <j2daosh> i had to rewrite the mbr on the pata drive so i could atleast use windows
[05:13] <sloncho> d34l3r - this program is the best out there
[05:13] <CirrusTheVirus> HymnToLife: so what u think ? Ive already tried Suse and FreeBSD ,didnt liked them
[05:14] <bur[n] er> phiqtion, i use gparted
[05:14] <j2daosh> how do i rewrite the grub and make my sata sda drive bootable?
[05:14] <Bnirkow> bur[n] er: yes... result is: "Kernel in Panic"
[05:14] <sloncho> d34l3r - like ... securing 20 servers, providing nat rules, etc, and this manually? it's not impossible, but ...
[05:14] <phiqtion> bur[n] er: can i use a command?
[05:14] <kane77> okay.. how do I connect my cellphone whrough bluetooth
[05:14] <d34l3r> lol securing 20 Servers?

[05:25] <n3rdism> wikiadm, try grepping for listen
[05:25] <d34l3r> need help! I need a graphical Interface for Mencoder
[05:25] <Marupa> Got a weird question...Last night I went to play a DVD in my DVD burner, and all of the players I tried crashed.  when I ran VLC from terminal, it said something about encrypted vob and having an error unencrypting it.  What would be causing this?
[05:25] <d34l3r> or anything else
[05:25] <j2daosh> cant get to the grub on my system
[05:25] <n3rdism> wikiadm, or list
[05:25] <d34l3r> that can convert XviD to SVCD/VCD
[05:25] <d34l3r> !
[05:25] <bur[n] er> Marupa, have libdvdcss?
[05:25] <CirrusTheVirus> gb__:need to install Server ISO for A64,but also need KDE,mp3 support and auto mount of DVDRWS drive .Can this be done?
[05:25] <j2daosh> i need to mount the existing install first but i cant seem to find the drive on my comp
[05:25] <HymnToLife> d34l3r, I personnaly use avidemux to encode videos in *nix
[05:25] <d34l3r> Graphical Interface?
[05:25] <vom> hello, the ATI install tutorial is telling me to do module-assitant but i get this: sudo: module-assistant: command not found
[05:25] <HymnToLife> yep
[05:26] <d34l3r> wait
[05:26] <Pici> Marupa : have you installed libdvdcss ?
[05:26] <gb__> CirrusTheVirus, yep , just apt-get it
[05:26] <Marupa> Pici: Yes.
[05:26] <HymnToLife> (it is not an interface to mencoder though, it encodes videos on it's own)
[05:26] <thomas_> my sound keyboard shortcuts put down the false channel on my soundcard anyone know how to solve this ?
[05:26] <d34l3r> that does not care
[05:26] <TheGateKeeper> CirrusTheVirus, if you want apps that need codecs (like mp3) then you will need to install 32bit apps
[05:26] <d34l3r> I only need an encoder for XviD > VCD
[05:26] <d34l3r> because I want to burn some videos I recorded at PC
 my sound keyboard shortcuts put down the false channel on my soundcard anyone know how to solve this ? <== I have the exact same issue and do not know how to resolve this.
[05:26] <bur[n] er> d34l3r, doesn't vlc do this?
[05:26] <d34l3r> as VCD/SVCD
[05:27] <HymnToLife> TheGateKeeper, mp3 codecs work on 64bits, too
[05:27] <d34l3r> burner, I dont think so
[05:27] <CirrusTheVirus> gb__:Im only asking this stupid sounding questions because ,I tried Suse and FreeBSD and had trouble to read my DVDs
[05:27] <vom> Can anyone help me?
[05:27] <bur[n] er> d34l3r, i'd search gnomefiles.org
[05:27] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, thats a little bit hard because i don't know what scripts are responsible for putting down sound
[05:27] <TheGateKeeper> HymnToLife, ohhh news to me, they have fixed that now?
[05:27] <d34l3r> burner I dont use ubuntu
[05:27] <seravitae_> woot.
[05:27] <d34l3r> I use Kubuntu

[05:27] <CirrusTheVirus> gb__:could properly mount the discs
[05:27] <bur[n] er> vom, can you ask a question?
[05:27] <prometoys> where i can ask questions about AIGLX and/or metacity/spiftacity?
[05:27] <d34l3r> and avidemux does the work
[05:27] <d34l3r> big thanks HymnToLife
[05:27] <d34l3r> !
[05:27] <bur[n] er> prometoys, go for it
[05:28] <vom> bur[n] er:  I did it twice already <___< : sudo: module-assistant: command not found
[05:28] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, a solution would be very good
[05:28] <HymnToLife> TheGateKeeper, it has always worked, there are free mp3 decoders out there
[05:28] <HymnToLife> though the format itself is non-free
[05:28] <gb__> vlc?
[05:28] <seravitae> holy what the hell. i just found a megabug in xchat.

[05:38] <LjL> n3rdism: not necessarily vmware
[05:38] <LjL> !virtualizers | n3rdism
[05:38] <ubotu> n3rdism: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[05:38] <SecrethX> is there a way to prevent an external HDD's partitions not to show up on my desktop?

[05:39] <Marupa> I have an exact make/model on a windows PC and it works fine, so I know it's not the drive.

[05:42] <j2daosh> ok ill look at that
[05:42] <vom> bur[n] er: "Install from Ubuntu repositories (easier)" ? :b
[05:42] <Newbie> no but i think during my isnatallation for Ubuntu i ll format the part of Mandriva ,is that right?
[05:42] <wikiadm> iketurner, na its just phpmyadmin that when i click on uit to go thru my DB it makes me download some file
[05:42] <Shane-S> what is a "Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block #" where # = 1,3,6,0,5 (so far) mean?

[05:43] <LjL> Shane-S: sounds like your drive is having trouble reading the CD
[05:43] <Shane-S> so I do not know which it is yet this is the install process
[05:43] <Marupa> libdvdread: Get key for /VIDEO_TS/VTS_17_1.VOB at 0x0031a799   libdvdread: Error cracking CSS key for /VIDEO_TS/VTS_17_1.VOB (0x0031a799)!!
[05:43] <Shane-S> so I should run that CD check test?
[05:43] <SmAcKaSs> Keneo_ i PMed you, did you recieve them?
[05:44] <Keneo_> no
[05:44] <Newbie> as when i reinstall my xp the screen of dual booting is removed so im using just XP but inside my pc i ve Mandriva also i d like to change my distro as im newbie and
[05:44] <SmAcKaSs> weird.
[05:44] <munckfish> Pici: thx for the vga tip - that seems promising. we just tried setting to 1024x768 at 256 and for the first time we got the xserver, mouse pointer and the gdm startup jingle, but still black background and can't get to the TTYs
[05:44] <j2daosh> Format of install_device not recognized.
[05:44] <j2daosh> what does that mean?
[05:44] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie :if you formatted the partitions that created from Mandriva installation,then delete these partitions,and create the Uubuntu one.But be carefull not to delete the windows partition[s] 
[05:44] <SmAcKaSs> Keneo_ new channel maybe?
[05:44] <j2daosh> i did grub-install sda1
[05:44] <eniac_petrov> DoUbLeM, hi
[05:44] <Keneo_> #smackass
[05:44] <Newbie> do you think ubuntu is better for newbies and whom just turned from win os to Linux?
[05:44] <Newbie> yeah thanks Cirrus :)
[05:45] <n3rdism> isnt there a flavor of ubuntu thats designed exactly like win now, itsl ike winbuntu
[05:45] <Newbie> ?
[05:45] <LjL> j2daosh: that would be grub-install /dev/sda1
[05:45] <n3rdism> !winbuntu
[05:45] <pbureau> Ubuntu is easier than some other linux releases, (ie slackware for example) all depends if you want soemthing up up fast or learn how to manually configure everything from scratch.
[05:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about winbuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:45] <tarelerulz> I am uses ubuntu.exe to install ubuntu and I wonder where it puts the grub  menu.lst files?
[05:45] <j2daosh> that didn't work either
[05:46] <LjL> j2daosh: with sudo of course
[05:46] <Razdaman> Hi guys. I have two computers, one internet connection. One of the computers have two network cards. Can I somehow "share" the internet connection between the two without buying a router? If yes, what software do I need?
[05:46] <j2daosh> ubuntu@ubuntu:/dev$ grub-install /dev/sda1. Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[05:46] <Newbie> cirrusvirus did you get my last question?
[05:46] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie :yes ,I replied
[05:46] <j2daosh> didn't work with sudo either
[05:47] <Newbie> i didnt get it :s
[05:47] <vom> bur[n] er:  think it worked, just a reboot now.
[05:47] <pillo_> j2daosh did you tell your device.map     (hd0)	/dev/sda
[05:47] <CirrusTheVirus> if you made anyt Madriva partitions delete them and create the pertitions for Ubuntu.But be CAREFULL not delete the Windows ones
[05:47] <j2daosh> i dont know what you just said pillo_
[05:47] <Shane-S> ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP that mean anything to anyone?
[05:47] <j2daosh> i dont know how to do that
[05:47] <marcel> I have 2 aliases and want to clear one - what's the command?
[05:47] <Newbie> i asked abouyt the right  the better distro for newbies and ne user turned from win os to Linux os?!
[05:47] <LjL> j2daosh, i'm afraid it's looking for a /boot directory on that device. it needs one to know what to boot etc, i suppose
[05:47] <pillo_> edit device.map
[05:47] <riotkittie> marcel: unalias
[05:48] <marcel> thank you
[05:48] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie suse is very easy to install
[05:48] <riotkittie> yw
[05:48] <pillo_> /boot/grub/device.map
[05:48] <n3rdism> haha yeah, http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS4611592451.html
[05:48] <lesshaste> can mencoder make an mpeg-ts file?
[05:48] <j2daosh> i dont have a device.map
[05:48] <j2daosh> or a /boot for that matter
[05:48] <Newbie> but generally?
[05:48] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie : I mean VERY easy
[05:48] <j2daosh> the grub loaded from my pata drive which i had to wipe out with fixmbr/fixboot in windows because it wouldn't load either windows or linux after the installation
[05:49] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie: but depends what u need
[05:49] <LjL> j2daosh: won't this help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto#head-44a5805eeda20ec1b6bd6c274cbf3a74230675d1
[05:49] <Joe_CoT> .
[05:49] <Newbie> loli want to learn Linux but wisely i should start step by step!
[05:49] <alvaro_> hi anyone could tell me a good flash plug-in for firefox ?
[05:50] <riotkittie> Newbie: the "better" distro for a newbie really depends on the newbie and their tastes. i started with slackware :P  i think ubuntu is a good place to start
[05:50] <j2daosh> unionfs                1684940    986324    698616  59% /
[05:50] <j2daosh> that is what came up
[05:50] <kiMbeRLy> server irc.enterthegame.com
[05:50] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie: with Linux you needd to read a bit no matter what distro you'll choose.
[05:50] <j2daosh> shouldn't it have like /boot?
[05:50] <adinsx> Does anyone know about customizing firefox's button layout in ubuntu?  I would like the middle mouse button on my IBM x31 thinkpad to scrol
[05:50] <pbureau> alvaro_,  click on tools -addons and grab the flash player for it
[05:50] <pillo_> edit your device.map (hd0)  /dev/sda
[05:50] <adinsx> sorry if i posted that twice, i was disconnected
[05:50] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie:Debian and Ubuntu are very good choices.to learn
[05:50] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, any progress ?
[05:51] <riotkittie> but i've heard some suggest MEPIS, linspire and uh xandros. but if you want to balance actually /learning/ linux and ease of use, i say go for ubuntu
[05:51] <Newbie> also i'm interested in computing and design
[05:51] <tarelerulz> I stared with Gentoox.
[05:51] <alvaro_> pbureau, where is that?
[05:51] <pbureau> riotkittie,  I started with Slackware as well..... very "time to learn by RTM".
[05:51] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie: I suggest 1st read this ,or try to read some of it ,then you decide
[05:51] <pbureau> alvaro_,  in firefox of course
[05:51] <CirrusTheVirus> http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/pr01.html.en
[05:51] <Newbie> i m waiting the last release of Debian 'etch' but i think its difficult for me as i'm newbie!
[05:52] <tarelerulz> Ubuntu is the easy one I have used .  Fedora was good too.
[05:52] <SecrethX> is there a way to prevent an external HDD's partitions not to show up on my desktop?
[05:52] <alvaro_> pbureau, ah, k, let me try
[05:52] <Lunar_Lamp> thomas_, no. I can't see what the command that the keyshortcut is calling :-(
[05:52] <Newbie> read this?read what?
[05:52] <CirrusTheVirus> Newbie for now install Fedora or Suse ,it will be easy
[05:52] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, ahhh thats bad
[05:52] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, would be a great progess if we would know what script is called
[05:52] <j2daosh> man
[05:53] <j2daosh> this is starting to frustrate the crap outta me
[05:53] <Lunar_Lamp> thomas_, yeah, I just can't find it though.
[05:53] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, i will look through the source code of gnome volume manager
[05:53] <j2daosh> ok, since i dont have a /boot on my drive
[05:53] <hotti> how can i get my ipod automatically mounted on edgy?
[05:53] <j2daosh> can i create it?
[05:53] <riotkittie> Newbie: youre never  going to know whats difficult for you until you give it a shot. there's always a learning curve when changing an OS but really, there's a wealth of information out there, and the linux community at large is great, so there's always some form of help if you need it
[05:54] <j2daosh> will that allow me to install the damn thing?
[05:54] <Lunar_Lamp> thomas_, I tried that, but it's a binary.
[05:54] <SecrethX> is there a way to prevent an external HDD's partitions from showing up on my desktop? ;o
[05:54] <Newbie> but i'm downloading now for ubuntu and i ve slow connection:s
[05:54] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, hmmm that will be hard in a way
[05:54] <Newbie> yeah  riotkittie thanks :)
[05:54] <riotkittie> SecrethX: uhm, look in the system menu, preferences... i think. there may be option in the mount thingie there.
[05:55] <shak1> Newbie: this here is not the proper channel :p , but take a closer look on http://freespire.org/ its like ubuntu a debian based distro , has CNR on board and the install takes less then 10 minutes.  the better part compared to ubuntu is the whole media,mp3,divx,java campaign . everything onboard - so if you have the time give ubuntu and freespire a try . you ll stick to it
[05:55] <SecrethX> *slaps himself* thanks riotkittie.. sometimes the answer is so obvious :S
[05:55] <pillo_>  <j2daosh> sudo fdisk -l
[05:56] <Giloth> by default, samba comes installed with Ubuntu right?
[05:56] <Eoin> Anyone able to help: How do I switch from workspaces with the keyboard. Ubuntu 6.1
[05:56] <j2daosh> ok, that gave me a bunch of info, what do i need to use from it?
[05:56] <devilsadvocate> Giloth, no. you need to instal it
[05:56] <riotkittie> Giloth: i dont think so. i remember having to install
[05:56] <devilsadvocate> !samba | Giloth
[05:56] <ubotu> Giloth: 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
[05:56] <Newbie> the problem where i'm living (Algeria) most of people using the win os!so it's difficult to get some needs when i need!

[05:56] <Newbie> thanks Shak1
[05:57] <poningru> Giloth: the client yes
[05:57] <poningru> not the server

[05:57] <pillo_> its tell you your active partition and your boot sector
[05:57] <Giloth> ahhh ok thank you all so much :)
[05:57] <Eoin> poningru: Many thanks. I have been looking for that for a while. Its not inthe docs or the manual. Cheers!
[05:57] <pillo_> *
[05:57] <Giloth> one last question, samba is compatible with windows vista machines?
[05:57] <j2daosh> active is my /dev/hdb1... which is the pata drive containing my windows os
[05:58] <j2daosh> i cant mount it though because its ntfs
[05:58] <poningru> Eoin: for more keyboard shortcuts go to system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts
[05:58] <Newbie> but you're here :p so no problem ithink but excuse me for my bad english
[05:58] <JaXxon> Anyone got dual monitors running?

[05:58] <poningru> JaXxon: what vid card do you have?
[05:58] <j2daosh> and when i try to do "sudo grub-install /dev/hdb1" it tells me cant find device
[05:58] <SecrethX> riotkittie, if im not starting to get blind, there is no shortcut option ;O
[05:58] <riotkittie> i wish i could set up dual monitors
[05:58] <riotkittie> SecrethX: ahh, sorry :\
[05:59] <JaXxon> poningru: Nvidia GeForce 6800 TwinView
[05:59] <poningru> j2daosh: you dont install grub to a partition you install it to an entire hard drive so do /dev/hdb
[05:59] <poningru> JaXxon: there is a twinview guide hold on
[05:59] <CodeWarrior_> hello folks, just to say I got it my 2 displays running xinerama with opengl fine ! thanks for all
[05:59] <poningru> !twinview
[05:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about twinview - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:59] <j2daosh> says the same thing with just using /dev/hdb
[05:59] <pillo_> you need to type grub
[05:59] <JaXxon> thanks
[06:00] <SecrethX> riotkittie, nvm but I just managed to set an icon of my removable HDD behind the edges of the background if you get what I mean.. :S
[06:00] <shak1> newbie: ma i suggest that you try linux without messing up your system as follows: hit google on this two topics "VMWARE PLAYER" "VMWARE VIRTUAL MACHINE" theres an enormous amount of virtual linux machines you can install under this fine software "vmware" free of charge. basically it works like this. Install vmware player (free) download a virtual machine , say ubuntu vm ,freespire vm , aso (look under vmware homepage) .
[06:00] <CirrusTheVirus> how do I get the AC97 sound card configured?
[06:00] <j2daosh> ubuntu@ubuntu:/media/sda1/etc/boot$ sudo grub-install /dev/hdb Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[06:00] <CirrusTheVirus> do I have to rebuild thekernel to support it ?
[06:00] <j2daosh>    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System /dev/hdb1   *           1       12748   102398278+   7  HPFS/NTFS
[06:00] <SmAcKaSs`> Keneo_ :) i'm back
[06:00] <riotkittie> SecrethX: ah.
[06:00] <poningru> JaXxon: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[06:01] <shak1> newbie: vmware player emulates a working pc under your running os so you can mess with a fresh "linux installation" without actually messing around ;)
[06:01] <SecrethX> riotkittie, know how to get that back then? ;o
[06:01] <j2daosh> i think i will just end up having to install it all over again.....
[06:01] <riotkittie> SecrethX: get what back  - the icon into view ?
[06:01] <SecrethX> riotkittie, yes
[06:01] <Newbie> shak1:well its ok!
[06:01] <marcel> I have VMware with ubuntu installed in mother OS windows - how can I mount the filesytem to see my WINDows files?
[06:02] <j2daosh> but ill wait till i finish downloading the fiesty dev iso
[06:02] <j2daosh> maybe that one will work
[06:02] <poningru> !twinview is TwinView is dual monitor setup for nvidia cards with two monitor output: more details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo
[06:02] <JaXxon> poningru: thanks will take a look
[06:02] <pillo_> root (hd0,1)
[06:02] <bur[n] er> marcel, you could use samba and fuse
[06:02] <knight> is it true that we can see movies, browse, view jpgs from emacs?
[06:02] <pillo_> setup (hd0.0)
[06:02] <marcel> samba on local machine?
[06:02] <riotkittie> try right clicking on desktop and ... clean up by name?  that will line them all up.
[06:03] <poningru> !grub > j2daosh
[06:03] <poningru> j2daosh: have you gone to that page?
[06:03] <j2daosh> yep
[06:03] <poningru> that ubotu just linked you to
[06:03] <j2daosh> doesn't work
[06:03] <riotkittie> hm. why not change that icon to something that's either transparent or blends in with your background, drag it somewhere you'll remember it, and then just rename it and remove the name so there's  no text.
[06:03] <poningru> j2daosh: are you sure your hdd is ok?
[06:03] <SecrethX> riotkittie, thanks man! damn.. how can I be so stupid ;O
[06:04] <poningru> can you mount it?
[06:04] <riotkittie> that way, its there, but its... noh there
[06:04] <CirrusTheVirus> Can someone tell me how to configure a sound card with Ubuntu ?
[06:04] <poningru> j2daosh: do this fdisk /dev/hdb
[06:04] <poningru> !sound > CirrusTheVirus
[06:04] <SecrethX> riotkittie, got it ;P will try that
[06:04] <riotkittie> ooh brb
[06:04] <j2daosh> technically speaking, yes... its fine. windows loads ok. its just when anything else trys to access it it forgets that it is there
[06:04] <poningru> j2daosh: hmm
[06:05] <CirrusTheVirus> poningru: in the prompt as root I suppose.U know if AC97 [alc655 i think]  is supported?
[06:05] <JaXxon> poningru: This make more sense than what i was reading before on TwinView. One Question though...
[06:05] <j2daosh> The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 30401. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs    (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
[06:05] <j2daosh> thats what it tells me
[06:06] <poningru> j2daosh: thats fine
[06:06] <yellow> hey guys
[06:06] <poningru> newer hdds do that
[06:06] <yellow> how can i open a service port ?
[06:06] <poningru> CirrusTheVirus: yes
[06:06] <marcel> what is fuse?
[06:06] <j2daosh> but i dont want to mess with the block size because i dont want to have a non-working computer. my windows side atleast works
[06:06] <j2daosh> ok good
[06:06] <JaXxon> poninguru: I have a laptop with res 1440x900 and my other screen supports 1289 x 124
[06:06] <CirrusTheVirus> poningru: thx m8
[06:06] <poningru> np
[06:06] <riotkittie> !fuse | marcel
[06:06] <ubotu> marcel: Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[06:06] <JaXxon> poningurn: can i mix resolutions?
[06:07] <poningru> JaXxon: what do you mean mix resolution?
[06:07] <poningru> it should maximize the resolution of the screen
[06:07] <andro_> Hi all. I'm quite new to ubuntu (not to linux) and I was wondering what was the ubutun way of adding a new device like a sound card? how should lambda user proceed?
[06:07] <marcel> funny, now what is !fuse | marcel ? :)
[06:07] <JaXxon> ponigru: the way i understand it x-server sees the two screens as one larger.. is that correct
[06:08] <Eoin> poningru: Thanks again. Very useful. I don't know how I didn't find it before:-)
[06:08] <shak1> CirrusTheVirus: Sorry if this reply sounds vain :  http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/  choose your manufacture and read on, if you like
[06:08] <JaXxon> poningru: and if that is true should the monitors not be at the same res?
[06:08] <poningru> andro_: its you plug it in and go
[06:08] <poningru> JaXxon: no it sees them as different screens
[06:08] <JaXxon> poningru: thx
[06:08] <poningru> under xorg.conf you will find two sections for them
[06:09] <krang> anyone know why dhclient3 is listening on port 68 in my fresh install of ubuntu server? I just set a static IP in /etc/network/interfaces
[06:09] <poningru> andro_: you turn off your computer, plug in the new card, turn on your computer and it just works
[06:09] <gneral> hello
[06:09] <gneral> how to use bluetooth?
[06:09] <funkyHat> Every time I try to hibernate (or if my laptop hibernates itself due to low battery), it doesn't restore properly from hibernate and it breaks my swap partition... how do I fix this?
[06:09] <poningru> krang: uninstall it if you dont want
[06:09] <LjL> Ubotu, tell gneral about bluetooth | gneral, see the private message from Ubotu
[06:10] <andro_> poningru: doesn't work this way. I've just added a new sound blaster to my computer and at the new boot nothing changed.
[06:10] <krang> poningru: before I do, I wanted to know why it was there
[06:10] <gneral> LjL: thanks
[06:11] <pbureau> !bluetooth
[06:11] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[06:11] <poningru> andro_: hmm hold on then
[06:11] <poningru> krang: thats the default install...
[06:11] <krang> poningru: do DHCP clients always sit there just listening when they don't need a new address or anything?

[06:12] <poningru> andresmujica: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSetupSoundCards
[06:12] <andro_> poningru: file a bug? no that's not just about a sound card. I've also changed from a nvidia graphic gard to an ATI one, it hasn't changed at all, X server wasn't able to start itself I had to modprobe radeon driver and change xorg.conf myself. I mean ubuntu is supposed to abstract all those things to novice users I believe, right?
[06:13] <poningru> andro_: I was talking to krang re: filing a bug
[06:13] <poningru> andro_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToSetupSoundCards

[06:14] <stelt> how can i find out if a certain scanner is supported ?
[06:14] <krang> poningru: oh, you mean it definiately shouldn't be sitting there listening? I thought maybe it was open in case it wanted to listen for lease expirations or something
[06:14] <poningru> !scanner
[06:14] <ubotu> Scanning software: XSane, the gimp, Kooka. For instructions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ScanningHowTo and to see supported hardware: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsScanners
[06:15] <poningru> krang: see thats just my technical opinion, if you put in a static ip, dhclient should not listen for more ips
[06:15] <poningru> krang: you should talk to devs on wether thats a bug or not
[06:15] <Dimensions> hie guys ... i have my one linux system crashed i can ssh into it but when i start it and login screen comes it gives error loading and gets back to login screen how can i backup all the data only by accessing it through ssh ?? from my laptop
[06:16] <CirrusTheVirus> poningru: Xorgcofig is available ?
[06:16] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, maybe come to #alsa and watch join my conversation with a other guy
[06:16] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, maybe he has a solution
[06:16] <krang> poningru: Well, here goes my first trip to #ubuntu-devel then
[06:16] <Pierre> re
[06:17] <CirrusTheVirus> poningru: it worx with the specific hardware
[06:17] <poningru> CirrusTheVirus: iirc no
[06:17] <stelt> poningru, the scanner is not listed there :-(  What are my options?
[06:17] <Pierre> how can I remove a package when dpkg or apt-get say that is should be reinstalled?
[06:17] <CirrusTheVirus> poningru: xfreeconfig ?
[06:17] <Pierre> (got an error on install and now I cannot remove it)
[06:17] <pbureau> any reason why ubuntu would reconize my yamaha sound card as an intel sound card ?

[06:18] <Napushenko> how to install gcc?
[06:18] <Lunar_Lamp> thomas_, I'm in #alsa now but nobody is talking!
[06:18] <CirrusTheVirus> ok
[06:18] <Lunar_Lamp> Napushenko, gcc is included in build-essential package which is required for intalling packages from source.
[06:18] <stelt> poningru,  AGFA Snapscan 1212u is listed, but i have the p version
[06:18] <thomas_> Lunar_Lamp, i think he is searching for a solution
[06:18] <Lunar_Lamp> !build-essential
[06:18] <soundray> Pierre: you need to force a success of the installation. Is it the postinstall script that fails?
[06:18] <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!)
[06:19] <Pierre> soundray: yes, while trying to compile a kernel module (virtualbox)
[06:19] <Napushenko> and now how to download gcc?
[06:19] <LjL> Pierre: there is a package for virtualbox... are you sure you need to compile a module if you use the package?
[06:19] <poningru> CirrusTheVirus: I dont think I can find a gui reconfigurer
[06:19] <LjL> Napushenko: see ubotu above
[06:19] <Napushenko> i have internet connection
[06:19] <Pierre> LjL: I use the pkg and it says: "no driver for this kernel...trying to compile..."
[06:19] <_Bianca_> musta ukko
[06:19] <poningru> CirrusTheVirus: dpkg-reconfigure xorg
[06:19] <LjL> Napushenko: you need to install the build-essential package, but the page has all information
[06:19] <mustaukko> bi anca
[06:20] <Napushenko> what page?
[06:20] <alejandrojz> hi, i need help
[06:20] <LjL> Ubotu, tell Napushenko about build-essential | Napushenko, see the private message from Ubotu
[06:20] <LjL> this page
[06:20] <Pierre> problem now is to remove it and try again to install it :)
[06:20] <LjL> Pierre: well, i suppose i didn't even notice it was compiling a module. try installing linux-headers
[06:20] <LjL> Pierre: i believe the virtualbox site has that information, though
[06:20] <poningru> Pierre: go into synaptic->file->fix packages
[06:20] <Pierre> LjL: well, I _cannot_ do anything with apt or dpkg

[06:21] <alejandrojz> in fact, a few hours
[06:21] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: great, what's the problem then?
[06:21] <poningru> alejandrojz: ask away my friend
[06:21] <LjL> Pierre: are you very sure? even if it keeps giving you errors, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't install packages
[06:21] <kucinglaper> hi all
[06:21] <FJ_Sanchez> Hello
[06:21] <alejandrojz> the thing is i can't configure my wifi card
[06:21] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: what model is it?
[06:21] <kane77> is upgrade to edgy recommended?
[06:21] <soundray> Pierre: to get unstuck, you should edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/virtualbox.postinst and insert 'exit 0' as the second line. After that, 'sudo apt-get -f install' should work.
[06:21] <FJ_Sanchez> Can I use the old device format for the file fstab instead of UUID?
[06:21] <alejandrojz> it is an intel pro 2200
[06:21] <Pierre> LjL: I cannot reinstall it and/or remove it, attempt to install other packages ended with the same error msg
[06:21] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: usb? or a pci-card?
[06:21] <alejandrojz> pci-card
[06:22] <poningru> FJ_Sanchez: yes
[06:22] <alejandrojz> i mean it is inside the laptop
[06:22] <mustaukko> ok, does it recognize it?
[06:22] <K-Rich> Does anyone know how to work around the sudo/growisofs bug on dapper?
[06:22] <soundray> Pierre: am I making sense?
[06:22] <FJ_Sanchez> poningru: none modification is nedeed?
[06:22] <alejandrojz> nop
[06:22] <Pierre> soundray: yes, let me try
[06:22] <poningru> FJ_Sanchez: nope
[06:22] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: if you try to write lspci in the terminal, what does it say?
[06:22] <LjL> Pierre: yes, but what i'm saying is that, even if you get the error message, it doesn't *necessarily* means the new packages aren't being installed. just try a "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic" and then try again the virtualbox .deb
[06:22] <FJ_Sanchez> Ok thx
[06:22] <FJ_Sanchez> I'll try just now
[06:22] <LjL> Pierre: if that doesn't work, try what soundray said

[06:26] <Pavel> hahah ubotu is a bot.
[06:26] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: Yeah, it's a bummer. There really is slim support from the companies. but that does not mean that device can not be used outside windows
[06:26] <alejandrojz> i really don't know which is it exactly because i have the ethernet and wifi
[06:26] <koregaonpark> DogWater, is that what I should type into Terminal?
[06:26] <DogWater> aye
[06:26] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: Try poningru's deb file
[06:26] <pe3r> what can you do with a nix box other than a router, webserver, firewall, etc?
[06:26] <mzanfardino> is there a way to map different workspaces to different ~/DesktopX directories?  I'd like to keep different shortcuts on each of my workspaces specific to the workspace tasks I've allocated...

[06:26] <DogWater> yes
[06:27] <bowens_> Hey is anybody else having problems getting networkmanager to say something other than "device not found"?

[06:27] <alejandrojz> ok

[06:27] <subzero800> anyone: where in my xorg do I add extra resolutions?
[06:27] <alejandrojz> or ubuntu
[06:27] <alejandrojz> so?
[06:27] <mustaukko> poningru, yeah, but you pointed it out.
[06:27] <soundray> Pierre: make sure the package is purged before you start over
[06:27] <alejandrojz> what should i do in that page?
[06:27] <bowens_> poningru: it's my wifi card, on eth1, kwifimanager has no problem with it
[06:27] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: Lets see
[06:28] <poningru> alejandrojz: download the .deb
[06:28] <Pierre> soundray: purged? :)
[06:28] <poningru> alejandrojz: then double click on it from your desktop
[06:28] <alejandrojz> done
[06:28] <soundray> Pierre: purging removes the config files. See man dpkg
[06:28] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: the last link there. called .deb file.
[06:28] <poningru> alejandrojz: did it install?
[06:28] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: that's a package. You can install it with gdebi program
[06:28] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: by double clicking.
[06:28] <koregaonpark> DogWater, it didn't work.
[06:28] <alejandrojz> it's installing
[06:29] <mustaukko> alejandrojz: swell, great.
[06:29] <pbureau> bowens_,  nope I use WAP and it doesnt even support it... I just configured the WIFI manually, was faster.
[06:29] <koregaonpark> DogWater, it says both 'drive2' and 'hda1' already exist.
[06:29] <poningru> alejandrojz: after installing go to system->admin->networking and configure
[06:29] <poningru> alejandrojz: you may have to restart after installing
[06:29] <poningru> bowens_: hmm?
[06:29] <poningru> explain
[06:29] <alejandrojz> ok
[06:29] <HymnToLife> pbureau, it's WEP or WPA, not WAP
[06:29] <alejandrojz> so i come back
[06:29] <DogWater> koregaonpark: Well, drive2 is just a mountpoint for the partition.
[06:29] <bowens_> pbureau: yeah but knetworkmanager has some notification options that I am fond of using in KDE
[06:29] <pbureau> HymnToLife,  right WPA...lol
[06:29] <tarelerulz> Does ubuntu see and config wireless well?
[06:29] <koregaonpark> Oh, I see.
[06:30] <poningru> tarelerulz: yes
[06:30] <Pierre> soundray: ah found, --purge and same trick required (exit 0) for the prerm script (as it does not work, tryng to stop vbox fails...)
[06:30] <DogWater> koregaonpark: you can name that whatever you want, also are you sure its not already mounted? df -h will tell you
[06:30] <pbureau> tarelerulz,  depends on the wifi card
[06:30] <HymnToLife> tarelerulz, yes, if there are drivers for your card
[06:30] <koregaonpark> But I can already see my hdb1 in Computer, it just won't mount. (DogWater)
[06:30] <poningru> bowens_: as in does it not even see your card?
[06:30] <Pierre> LjL: soundray thanks, got back a clean system :)
[06:30] <bowens_> poningru: did you get that, the device is wifi, on eth1, an intel 8139 card
[06:30] <pbureau> bowens - iwconfig mentions your card ?
[06:30] <koregaonpark> DogWater, oops. I mean hda1.
[06:31] <koregaonpark> DogWater, I see hda1 (250 GB) in Computer.
[06:31] <poningru> bowens_: is it usb or pci?
[06:31] <tarelerulz> I am wating for ubuntu to download and I want to know if I had anything to worry about.
[06:31] <bowens_> poningru: pci
[06:31] <pbureau> bowens : did you visit intel.com and grab the linux drivers for it ?
[06:31] <poningru> bowens_: do this lspci | grep broadcom
[06:31] <poningru> hold on
[06:31] <pe3r> what can you do with a nix box other than a router, webserver, firewall, etc?
[06:31] <poningru> bowens_: you dont have to do that...
[06:32] <tarelerulz> I did the new ubuntu.exe so I am wondering alot how stuff will come out. wish me luck
[06:32] <pbureau> pe3r,  music streamer ?
[06:32] <mzanfardino> is there a way to configure different desktops for different workspaces?
[06:32] <bowens_> hehe yeah i was saying, it's an intel
[06:32] <pbureau> bowens : did you visit intel.com and grab the linux drivers for it ?
[06:32] <soundray> Pierre: glad it worked -- this is quite a dirty hack, as you can tell. But it's okay if all you want is to remove a failing package.
[06:32] <DogWater> koregaonpark: Well, the command to mount a partition is mount device mountpoint, so it should just be mount /dev/hda1 /drive2
[06:32] <ConstyXIV> is there any way to rearrange the minimize/maximize/close buttons in gnome?
[06:32] <sambagirl> can you use ubuntu without the mouse? i have a probelm with the hdd on the server and the mouse inst working properly so i used a ubuntu live cd to boot the server but can i navigate ubuntu wioutht a mouse?
[06:32] <bowens_> pbureau; it's not getting the driversto work, it's just that i can't get networkmanager to recognize it
[06:32] <Pierre> soundray: and it was the missing linux-header fault, stupid me. I was sure I have them on this box :)
[06:33] <DogWater> koregaonpark: im sure there is a way to do it in the GUI also, but i dont use the gui
[06:33] <ConstyXIV> bowens_: pull up /etc/network/interfaces in gedit
[06:33] <poningru> bowens_: if you do iwconfig what shows up?
[06:33] <krang> so where in the boot process does dhclient get called from? I can't seem to find /etc/ -exec grep -h "dhclient" {} ';' a relevant reference to it.
[06:33] <poningru> bowens_: yeah do what ConstyXIV is telling you
[06:33] <koregaonpark> DogWater, in the GUI, you double click the drive. When I do it gives me an error.
[06:33] <kane77> is upgrade to edgy recommended?
[06:33] <DogWater> koregaonpark: what error?
[06:33] <soundray> Pierre: I see. It may be worth reporting that as a bug, because the package should then depend on the headers being installed.
[06:33] <poningru> kane77: what kinda environment are you in?
[06:33] <ConstyXIV> bowens_: take out any references to your wi-fi card (wlan0 or eth1)
[06:33] <bowens_> ok
[06:33] <SentineLxx> What are the main differences between 6.06 and 6.10 please?
[06:34] <kane77> poningru, what do you mean? (gnome...)
[06:34] <bowens_> ok i've commented them out
[06:34] <poningru> kane77: for desktop edgy is recommended but for server scenario its not
[06:34] <koregaonpark> DogWater, it says "Unable to mount the selected volume" and under show more details: error device /dev/hda1 is not removable. error could not execute pmount.
[06:34] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: more up-to date packages
[06:34] <ConstyXIV> bowe
[06:34] <poningru> SentineLxx: just much more updated packages
[06:34] <ConstyXIV> bowens_: save and restart
[06:34] <SentineLxx> ahh cool,
[06:34] <bowens_> ConstyXIV: next step?
[06:34] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: oh, and upstart replaces init
[06:34] <kane77> poningru, is it safe? (people discouraged me a lot... that it's better to do a fresh install)
[06:35] <ConstyXIV> bowens_: save and restart
[06:35] <SentineLxx> So would you recommend updating from 6.06 then? And would everything still work under 6.10 as it is now under 6.06?
[06:35] <tarelerulz> truemobile 1180 internal 802.11b mini-pci card  That is what I have for wireless
[06:35] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: i would
[06:35] <poningru> kane77: did you use something like automatix, easyubuntu etc.?
[06:35] <DogWater> koregaonpark: so seriously what happens if you go into the shell and type mount /dev/hda1 /drive2
[06:35] <kane77> poningru, nah...
[06:35] <SentineLxx> ConstyXIV, cheers :D I'll give it a go now
[06:35] <poningru> kane77: then updating shouldnt give you much trouble
[06:35] <ConstyXIV> DogWater: mounts /dev/hda1 at /drive2
[06:35] <pbureau> tarelerulz,  is that what "lspci" declares ?
[06:35] <ConstyXIV> DogWater:
[06:36] <DogWater> ConstyXIV: yeah, he's trying to mount it and says it doesnt work.
[06:36] <ConstyXIV> DogWater: that's all it does
[06:36] <rafase282> hello
[06:36] <kane77> poningru, but I have quite a bit of non default repositories...
[06:36] <ConstyXIV> have you made a /drive2 folder?
[06:36] <DogWater> ConstyXIV: he asked how he can access files on /dev/hda1
[06:36] <koregaonpark> DogWater, it worked!
[06:36] <DogWater> koregaonpark: hurray
[06:36] <koregaonpark> DogWater, last time your command had "mkdir" in it.
[06:36] <SentineLxx> How do I go about updating to the 6.10 from 6.06? Anyone have any guides?
[06:36] <tarelerulz> I don't know really anything about my wireless card poningru other then its name
[06:36] <poningru> kane77: oh then not reccommended
[06:37] <DogWater> koregaonpark: yeah it was mkdir /drive2;mount /dev/hda1 /drive2
[06:37] <poningru> kane77: I would backup your data before doing it then
[06:37] <simon__> package mednafen is outdated compared to the version in debian by around 5 months
[06:37] <Newbie> !http
[06:37] <DogWater> but anyway im glad it worked

[06:37] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: sudo update-manager -d
[06:37] <poningru> tarelerulz: sorry lost track of you, you were having trouble with your wifi card?
[06:37] <kane77> poningru, heh.. so then I wont do it... i'll wait for feisty and then reinstall...
[06:37] <koregaonpark> DogWater, if you don't mind me asking, what was "mkdir" supposed to do?
[06:37] <SentineLxx> ConstyXIV, cheers :p
[06:37] <ConstyXIV> koregaonpark: makes a directory
[06:37] <koregaonpark> Thanks, ConstyXIV.
[06:38] <ConstyXIV> koregaonpark: MaKeDIRectory
[06:38] <poningru> brb food
[06:38] <pbureau> tarelerulz,  you using a dell computer
[06:39] <koregaonpark> DogWater, I found the GUI way to do it!!!
[06:39] <tarelerulz> I am using Dell
[06:39] <ConstyXIV> can you rearrange the titlebar buttons in gnome?
[06:39] <DogWater> cool
[06:39] <sambagirl> how do i get root from shell?
[06:39] <DogWater> su
[06:39] <SentineLxx> ConstyXIV, that just takes me 2 update manager :/ then there r no updates
[06:39] <koregaonpark> DogWater, for future reference, just tell someone to open Sys > Admin > Disk
[06:39] <sambagirl> i did a alt/ctrl/f1 to get a shell
[06:39] <ConstyXIV> sambagirl: sudo -i
[06:39] <koregaonpark> Disks*
[06:39] <poningru> sambagirl: sudo su
[06:39] <sambagirl> ok thanks
[06:39] <koregaonpark> And specify a mount point (/drive2)
[06:39] <tarelerulz> I just wanted to  know if my wi-fi card had any know problems or anything like that
[06:39] <koregaonpark> And hit "enable"
[06:40] <koregaonpark> So easy.
[06:40] <shatrat> !root|sambagirl
[06:40] <ubotu> sambagirl: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:40] <sambagirl> thanks!
[06:40] <sambagirl> brb
[06:40] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list, change dapper to edgy
[06:40] <poningru> tarelerulz: that depends on the chiset
[06:40] <poningru> you have to find the chipset
[06:40] <poningru> there is also a list of known working cards
[06:40] <poningru> !wifi | tarelerulz
[06:40] <ubotu> tarelerulz: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:40] <koregaonpark> DogWater, now can you tell me how to partition hda1?
[06:40] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: then sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[06:41] <koregaonpark> DogWater, only if you have the time.
[06:41] <SentineLxx> kk thanks :p
[06:41] <poningru> no thats not how you upgrade
[06:41] <poningru> do not dist-upgrade
[06:41] <nicolah> I've some problem mount my compact flash, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2878/
[06:41] <poningru> that breaks stuff
[06:41] <poningru> update-manager -d iirc
[06:41] <ConstyXIV> poningru: where do you get that from?  that's what canonical suggests
[06:41] <poningru> no that is not what canonical suggests
[06:41] <ConstyXIV> poningru: we tried
[06:42] <poningru> ConstyXIV: go ask in any ubuntu-dev channels
[06:42] <ConstyXIV> and my system says otherwise
[06:42] <poningru> if dist-upgrade is prefered over update-manager
[06:42] <poningru> ConstyXIV: look at any release notes
[06:42] <ConstyXIV> its what ive done since breezy
[06:43] <poningru> ConstyXIV: well it breaks a bunch of stuff
[06:43] <poningru> do not do it
[06:43] <poningru> thats what update-manager is for
[06:43] <pbureau> tarelerulz,  check this blog http://ubuntu-inspiron.blogspot.com/2005_02_01_ubuntu-inspiron_archive.html someone wrote about this card and how to get it working.... (scroll down the page to find it)
[06:43] <koregaonpark> Can anyone tell me how to partition hda1? I have Ubuntu installed on both hda1 and hdb1 and want to partition hda1 from my Ubuntu install on hdb1.
[06:44] <poningru> koregaonpark: what do you have on partition hda1?
[06:44] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: okay, after gedit, do gksudo update-manager -d
[06:44] <glatzor> poningru: ConstyXIV: dist-upgrader can handle many corner cases.
[06:44] <koregaonpark> poningru, Ubuntu and a lot of media files.
[06:44] <burzum> can anyone suggest me an cd/dvd burning application that burns proteced DVDs without problems?
[06:44] <glatzor> ConstyXIV: and it also modifies the sources.list accordingly :)
[06:44] <burzum> i cant find any infos about this problem on the x-cd-roast page for example
[06:45] <tarelerulz> Thanks pbureau
[06:45] <poningru> burzum: gnomebaker
[06:45] <koregaonpark> poningru, I want to seperate the media files and the Ubuntu install so that I can wipe out ubuntu. i'm running ubuntu on hdb1 now.
[06:45] <SentineLxx> ConstyXIV, ok, thanks mate :)
[06:45] <ConstyXIV> im a console nut.  sue me :)
[06:45] <SentineLxx> lol
[06:45] <glatzor> ConstyXIV: if so, you should recommend to install ubuntu-desktop afterwards
[06:45] <burzum> poningru ok ill check it
[06:45] <soundray> burzum: I've heard that k9copy works well
[06:46] <burzum> k9copy sounds like KDE :/ i dislike the idea of installing a lot of kde libs
[06:47] <MKR> Having a k doesn't make it KDE any more than a g makes it gnome :P
[06:47] <SentineLxx> ConstyXIV, I ran the gksudo update-manager -d and it has brought up a load of updates, apart from the relevant dist upgrade I need I think :|
[06:47] <soundray> burzum: install it with aptitude, then you can remove it and all its dependencies easily if it doesn't suit
[06:47] <ConstyXIV> SentineLxx: that's normal.  hit update and grab some caffiene
[06:47] <glatzor> SentineLxx: have you changed the sources.list file before?
[06:47] <nd_> Aloha. I'm trying to use a Kyocera FS680 (supported) printer -- but I can't get it to work with `Layout -- 4 Pages on 1' Mode. Can't find the option... is it me, or is it not supported in the driver?
[06:47] <kkrusty> can i install apache on a desktop version of ubuntu?
[06:47] <SentineLxx> yeah just done it, ok I'll do that now :D
[06:48] <ConstyXIV> kkrusty: yeah
[06:48] <SentineLxx> 178 updates :| lol
[06:48] <ConstyXIV> kkrusty: the only difference between desktop and server is the default packages
[06:48] <tarelerulz> I have one hour until I get Ubuntu and see if the ubuntu.exe did its job right
[06:48] <poningru> ubuntu.exe????
[06:48] <poningru> wtf
[06:48] <poningru> what are you doing??
[06:48] <poningru> tarelerulz: what are you doing???
[06:48] <kkrusty> so what do i do? sudo apt-get install apache?
[06:49] <ConstyXIV> tarelerulz: is taht the experimental windows installer?
[06:49] <SentineLxx> ConstyXIV, Cheers for the help mate, I couldn't remember how i upgraded from breezy to dapper, but once you mentioned it, I remembered that's how I did it last time lol
[06:49] <poningru> !apache | kkrusty

[06:56] <esaym> you boon too?
[06:56] <poningru> sure
[06:56] <ConstyXIV> esaym: i think it's ooh boon too
[06:56] <esaym> what about you bun too
[06:56] <soundray> esaym: more like oo-boon-too
[06:56] <esaym> hmm
[06:56] <poningru> ...
[06:56] <esaym> rofl
[06:56] <poningru> a rose by any other name
[06:56] <joeljkp> i say it uh-buhn-too
[06:57] <shatrat> well you're wrong
[06:57] <Bobsworth> see how Nelson Mandela says it in /Examples
[06:57] <shatrat> My way or the highway
[06:57] <ConstyXIV> esaym: i think there's some videos about ubuntu in the examples dir, check there
[06:57] <poningru> (IPA pronunciation: /ubun'tu/, pronounced like oo-BOON-too
[06:57] <soundray> esaym: you know it's an ancient African word meaning "I cannot install Debian"...
[06:57] <esaym> I thought it ment "slackware's too hard for me"?
[06:57] <esaym> lol jk
[06:57] <her0zz> can i install ubuntu on 1 computer with 1 hard disk with 2 partitions?
[06:58] <Bobsworth> Examples/Experience ubuntu.ogg
[06:58] <her0zz> does ubuntu need the primary partition or something like that?
[06:58] <poningru> her0zz: you already have 2 partitions?
[06:58] <ConstyXIV> i always thought it was "just make this swatting thing work"
[06:58] <her0zz> poningru yes
[06:58] <esaym> whaere is the /examples directory?
[06:58] <ConstyXIV> that's what it does
[06:58] <ConstyXIV> esaym: in your homedir
[06:58] <poningru> her0zz: what are in those partitions?
[06:58] <her0zz> poningru i mean no..
[06:58] <shatrat> her0zz: ubuntu needs 2 partitions, a main partition and a small swap.  The livecd can help you set that up
[06:58] <esaym> ohhh
[06:58] <alejandrojz> hi, everybody
[06:58] <poningru> her0zz: you need atleast 2 gig but thats all
[06:58] <alejandrojz> it's me again
[06:59] <poningru> alejandrojz: is it working?
[06:59] <her0zz> poningru i want to run windows xp too.. i'm think i'll install xp first and create the 2 partitions (one for windows and one for ubuntu)
[06:59] <alejandrojz> yes!!!
[06:59] <joeljkp> bobsworth: where is that?
[06:59] <alejandrojz> and i am very happy
[06:59] <poningru> her0zz: yes
[06:59] <alejandrojz> how can i pay you back?
[06:59] <alejandrojz> really, thank you very much
[06:59] <poningru> hehe
[06:59] <Bobsworth> in your home folder or the livecd desktop
[06:59] <poningru> !contribute
[06:59] <ubotu> To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
[06:59] <joeljkp> her0zz: what are the sizes?
[06:59] <her0zz> poningru so that should work right? windows on first partition.. and ubuntu on second
[06:59] <shatrat> her0zz: When you install XP create 3 partitions and leave 2 of them unformatted.  Make one for XP, one for Linux, and one 1-2gb one for linux swap
[06:59] <poningru> her0zz: yep
[06:59] <her0zz> joeljkp 110 gigs split into 60 and 50 gigs
[07:00] <Bobsworth> or here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx0qGJCm-qU
[07:00] <her0zz> shatrat when i install ubuntu the i can assign the swap right?
[07:00] <DogWater> bah, i now have 39 auto-installing linux systems on my pxe server
[07:00] <DogWater> =/
[07:00] <alejandrojz> ok
[07:00] <alejandrojz> i'll do it
[07:00] <alejandrojz> thanks again
[07:00] <shatrat> her0zz: yeah, there is a partition manager on the LiveCD as well.
[07:00] <guigz> Hello,I'd like to remove unused  X drivers,but when I use synaptic to remove it,it says it will remove "xorg" "xserver-xorg" "xserver-xorg-video-all"...is it safe to remove them??
[07:01] <rafase282> hello
[07:01] <her0zz> ok.. thanks all
[07:01] <her0zz> let me try
[07:01] <SecrethX> hmm.. are there other emulators then wine?
[07:01] <joeljkp> her0zz: if you want to dual-boot, you need 3 partitions
[07:01] <rafase282> can someone help me with vmware?
[07:01] <shatrat> guigz: not
[07:01] <DogWater> vmware? i can try
[07:01] <joeljkp> her0zz: the first large one for windows, then a big one for ubuntu and a small one for swap
[07:01] <rafase282> thanks
[07:01] <her0zz> joeljkp i take it i should install xp first?
[07:01] <joeljkp> her0zz: the second two can be in any order, but windows has to be first
[07:01] <shatrat> her0zz: Yes, because if you install XP second it will overwrite your linux boot loader
[07:01] <her0zz> ok
[07:01] <her0zz> thanks all
[07:01] <joeljkp> her0zz: swap should be 1gig or so
[07:01] <Bobsworth> SecrethX Wine Is Not an Emulator
[07:02] <joeljkp> her0zz: yep
[07:02] <SecrethX> Bobsworth then how is it called? :s
[07:02] <joeljkp> her0zz: ubuntu installer will detect your windows install
[07:02] <guigz> So I'm obliged to keep all drivers on my install(I installed xubuntu on a 2GB usb key and I'm short on space)
[07:02] <rafase282> I tried to install the workstation and when it's the time to config it sasy a message error
[07:02] <Bobsworth> Wine is an implementation of the windows API on Linux
[07:02] <Bobsworth> if you want an emulator you can use QEmu or vmware
[07:03] <dimeo> rafase... have you tried virtualbox?  i think its better and free!
[07:03] <holycow> offtopic guys but a goodie: http://dilbert.com/
[07:03] <rafase282> no
[07:03] <K-Rich> Can anyone help me with backing up to DVD on dapper using mondo ?
[07:03] <holycow> todays is just funny
[07:03] <rafase282> never hear of that
[07:03] <SecrethX> Bobsworth okay will try that :)
[07:03] <Bobsworth> for games there is Cedega
[07:03] <holycow> and linux related
[07:03] <poningru> K-Rich: how do you wanna backup your dvd?
[07:03] <SecrethX> Bobsworth yes, cedega, for some reason I cant compile it via CVS
[07:03] <poningru> like into smaller 750mb film?
[07:03] <poningru> or entire 4.5gb?
[07:03] <poningru> err 4.2
[07:04] <rafase282> where canI get it dimei? apt??
[07:04] <poningru> DRUNK_STUDENT: awesome
[07:04] <poningru> nick
[07:04] <K-Rich> poningru: i am getting the error that growisofs can't be ran sudo
[07:04] <dimeo> rafase... take a look at virtualbox.org
[07:04] <dimeo> or google it
[07:04] <Arithmomaniac> My torrents are slow. How can I route it through my firewall, as suggessted?
[07:04] <poningru> K-Rich: try it without sudo?
[07:05] <Bobsworth> SecrethX there is a guide for Cedega installation here: http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=749
[07:05] <shatrat> K-Rich: try running "sudo -i" to log in as root and then run it without sudo
[07:05] <poningru> Arithmomaniac: what program are you using for torrenting?
[07:05] <K-Rich> mondoarchive has to be run as sudo
[07:05] <Arithmomaniac> BitTorrent
[07:05] <shatrat> K-Rich: or yeah, run as a normal user
[07:05] <poningru> K-Rich: try what shatrat said
[07:05] <SecrethX> Bobsworth tried those guides found on google more then once.. it just keeps failing
[07:05] <UNDERsOnN> poningru >> You think that my nick DRUNK_STUDENT is bad&
[07:05] <poningru> no dude its awesome
[07:05] <Arithmomaniac> Firestarter is off
[07:05] <poningru> as in good
[07:05] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: how are you opening the torrent? double-click?
[07:06] <Bobsworth> SecrethX did you install all the dependencies?
[07:06] <Arithmomaniac> Auto-open with Firefox
[07:06] <SecrethX> Bobsworth afaik, yes
[07:06] <rafase282> ok im downloading the virtualbox
[07:06] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: i'm not sure what the default gnome bt client uses for ports
[07:07] <Arithmomaniac> Randomized 1-6K
[07:07] <holycow> Arithmomaniac, sometimes that stuff is throttled at the isp
[07:07] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: probably 68801-6889
[07:07] <holycow> sometimes you have a shitty torrent
[07:07] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: where's it say that
[07:07] <holycow> Arithmomaniac, chances are, from the sounds of what you describe that its really not linux
[07:07] <Arithmomaniac> it is, i'm in ubuntu
[07:07] <holycow> Arithmomaniac, infact it will either work or it wont
[07:08] <Arithmomaniac> And the ports are 10K-60K Randomized
[07:08] <yellow> alvarezp, remember my problem with P letter ?
[07:08] <CroM1> Hello all. Anyone can help me with Beryl on Dapper? I installed it, but now if I start XGL session, The top/bottom menubars of Gnome disappear -.- No Beryl effects either.
[07:08] <Bobsworth> SecrethX you need these packages: sudo apt-get install cvs build-essential bison flex-old libasound2-dev  libpng12-dev libjpeg62-dev libfreetype6-dev libxrender-dev libttf2 libttf-dev libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libsdl-gfx1.2-dev msttcorefonts libfontconfig1-dev
[07:08] <holycow> to throttle something like bittorrent requires a good amount of knowhow, and if your using firestarter your not in that group
[07:08] <K-Rich> poningru: krich@eddie:~$ mondoarchive
[07:08] <K-Rich> Please run as root.
[07:08] <SecrethX> Bobsworth okay I will redo them
[07:08] <Arithmomaniac> What could I do then? I'm in Dapper
[07:08] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: you need to forward the ports in your router
[07:09] <Arithmomaniac> WHat do you mean?
[07:09] <poningru> K-Rich: right do sudo su first
[07:09] <poningru> then run it
[07:09] <Bobsworth> SecrethX then run the script from http://winecvs.linux-gamers.net/WineCVS.sh
[07:09] <wikiadm> my phpmyadmin is not working everytime i goto the localhost and try to access phpmyadmin it prompts me to download some file...?
[07:09] <Arithmomaniac> How do I find them?
[07:10] <SecrethX> Bobsworth is wget fine?
[07:10] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: you need to forward the right ports on your router
[07:10] <Arithmomaniac> Can I use Neworking tools to find which ones?
[07:10] <DRUNK_STUDENT> Who can help me. When KDE running first time it asking you. Dou you wanna all effects enabled or your PC is to slow. So I wanna now how to change this after first time
[07:10] <SecrethX> Bobsworth hell.. now it works :S thanks!
[07:10] <K-Rich> poningru: Fatal error... Can't write DVDs as sudo because growisofs doesn't support this - see the growisofs manpage for details.
[07:10] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: if your torrent program is using 10k-60k, you need to forward all of them
[07:11] <K-Rich> that the error now
[07:11] <K-Rich> poningru: and when i run as sudo
[07:11] <Arithmomaniac> How do I tell it to?
[07:11] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: depends on your router, what do you have
[07:12] <Arithmomaniac> Realtek on a Aspire 1640
[07:12] <poningru> K-Rich: even when you are sudo -i ?
[07:12] <Arithmomaniac> I'll tell you the model # in a moment
[07:12] <DRUNK_STUDENT> How to enable all effect's in KDE? ( I choose minimal at first time KDE running)
[07:12] <shatrat> Arithmomaniac: That sounds like your ethernet adapter.  Hes asking what router you have, the thing you plug into your modem and plug all your computers into.
[07:12] <Arithmomaniac> Have to go. I'll be back.
[07:12] <joeljkp> arithmomaniac: that's not a router
[07:12] <wikiadm> whats the command to tell whats running on what port?
[07:13] <joeljkp> oy.
[07:14] <rafase282> thanks
[07:14] <K-Rich> poningru: lemme try that
[07:14] <rafase282> I now can have virtual machines on my Ubuntu
 I now can have virtual machines on my Ubuntu>> yes you can
[07:15] <wikiadm> whats the command to see what ports things are running on
[07:15] <tarelerulz> Can you use windows drives in linux ?
[07:15] <DRUNK_STUDENT> yes
[07:16] <name> are there builds for wxPython with Python 2.5
[07:16] <riotkittie> wikiadm: netstat -l  ?
[07:16] <dimeo> rafase:  I have win2000 running flawlessly on my ubuntu... it ROCKS!
[07:16] <eetfunk> Anyone knows where I can get a pgsql 8.2 package for Ubuntu Edgy Eft?
[07:17] <DRUNK_STUDENT>    /etc/services you can see there which port and so on
[07:17] <dimeo> Ubuntu that is.  I only needed windows for two work related pieces of software... wouldn't have bothered otherwise
[07:17] <SecrethX> Bobsworth is it bad that I still have wine installed and running?
[07:17] <ConstyXIV> has anyone used a sansa DAP in MTP mode on ubuntu?
[07:18] <K-Rich> poningru: same with sudi -i
[07:18] <Bobsworth> SecrethX wine and cedega can coexist, but it might be best to close it while installing
[07:19] <SecrethX> lol ok bye
[07:19] <tristan> what should I do to convert mpegs - like if I want more compression, less resolution etc. ?
[07:20] <tristan> sorry, "what tool should I use ?"
[07:20] <nothlit> mencoder or ffmpeg
[07:20] <ConstyXIV> tristan: if you dont mind the commandline, mencoder
[07:20] <tristan> ok cool thanks, CLI is my friend :)
[07:20] <K-Rich> poningru: i've searched google the forums and usenet with no luck, though i have seen where others have had the issue
[07:21] <nothlit> mencoder is installed with <mplayer>

[07:27] <FreddyC> yeah thats it
[07:27] <JaXxon> T-ROK: what you need?

[07:27] <FreddyC> oh ok
[07:27] <FreddyC> thanks
[07:28] <LjL> sipher_: i know in some channels there is a "three lines rule", but not really here
[07:28] <nothlit> sipher_, 4 with your comment :P
[07:28] <riotkittie> FreddyC: Feisty's alpha - there are downloads available somewhere on the site if you want  to test it but its not slated for release til april
[07:28] <poningru> FreddyC: its availalbe for beta testing
[07:28] <JaXxon> T-ROK do you have a free partition or disk - I.E. with no windows on it?
[07:28] <shatrat> T-ROK: You dont really need to back up your whole windows partition, assuming you have a windows disk and can reinstall if things go really bad.  Just back up any important files, everything will probably still be there.
[07:28] <FreddyC> oh ok.  im sure i dont have the nerve for that
[07:28] <nothlit> K-Rich, then chmod growisofs with SUID
[07:28] <bauer77> shatrat I think what he is saying is he wants a dual boot
[07:28] <DogWater> anyone know what the name of the graphical interface package is?
[07:28] <rafase282> help
[07:28] <dimeo> ne1 know what's the big change for v7?
[07:29] <FreddyC> i do want to say that ubuntu is the most encouraging move to linux i have ever seen
[07:29] <dimeo> or just lots of small updates?
[07:29] <T-ROK> ok so after i install ubuntu then how can i access like my music and my installers and stuff
[07:29] <shatrat> bauer77: I know, but Ive been dual booting for 7 years and I havent hosed anything yet.
[07:29] <LjL> !netsplit
[07:29] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[07:29] <tarelerulz> my drive is truemobile 1180 internal 802.11b mini-pci card
[07:29] <poningru> nothlit: I think that requirement is for accessing the device
[07:29] <poningru> blarghospher
[07:29] <FreddyC> hardware detection and wireless on  my laptop was flawless
[07:29] <SecrethX> lol
[07:29] <JaXxon> T-ROK you can mount the windows drive in linux
[07:29] <FreddyC> im interested in replacing my media center too
[07:29] <T-ROK> can someone show me how?
[07:29] <JaXxon> T-Rok: you will be able to read it
[07:29] <bauer77> ok shatrat, was just making sure that you were understanding him properly.
[07:29] <rafase282> hey how can I mount windows driver on Ubuntu?
[07:29] <rafase282> I need that information
[07:30] <poningru> !ntfs | T-ROK
[07:30] <ubotu> T-ROK: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[07:30] <LjL> Ubotu, tell rafase282 about windowsdrives | rafase282, see the private message from Ubotu
[07:30] <rafase282> because my webcam is not working
[07:30] <shatrat> rafase282: Do you mean a wireless card?  Look for an ndiswrapper how-to
[07:30] <JaXxon> T-Rok: have you got a dual install yet?
[07:30] <dimeo> freddyc  is that like the "mediadirect" button on my dell laptop?
[07:30] <shatrat> !ndiswrapper|rafase282
[07:30] <ubotu> rafase282: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:30] <rafase282> no, is not that
[07:30] <T-ROK> i downloaded ubuntu but havnt tried to install yet
[07:30] <dimeo> Freddy.... a quick boot for just playing DVDs without loading the whole OS kinda thing
[07:30] <rafase282> I need the drivers for my HP integrated usb web cam
[07:30] <FreddyC> no no.  im currently looking to upgrade my media center xp to a linux distro.  i was hoping in ubuntu.  but i had trouble with mythtv
[07:31] <shatrat> ah, well not all windows drivers can be used that way.  I would try doing a google search with the model of your webcam + linux or + ubuntu
[07:31] <kupesoft> Why does my hostname = 127.0.1.1, but localhost = 127.0.0.1???
[07:31] <JaXxon> poningru: can T-ROK mount the win32 partition from live CD?
[07:31] <bauer77> T-rok, you basically want to partition your hard drive into two partitions, or an alternative is to use two seperate disks
[07:31] <poningru> yes
[07:31] <SecrethX> for some reason my driver (of my printer) isnt printing right :/
[07:31] <TrickyPhillips> I'm looking for a GUI app that will display all of the wireless networks nearby. I remember installing it when I used Ubuntu a few months ago, but I've forgotten the name.
[07:31] <FreddyC> i think i really hate vista now and im looking for an alternative
[07:31] <poningru> T-ROK: just go to a terminal and type this:
[07:31] <riotkittie> JaXxon: yes, he should be able to
[07:31] <FreddyC> i bet others are too
[07:31] <poningru> T-ROK: sudo mkdir /mnt/windows
[07:31] <SecrethX> FreddyC, I know that feeling..
[07:31] <nothlit> !wireless
[07:31] <bauer77> if you Windows is on your C partition, then install Ubuntu to the other partition
[07:31] <riotkittie> TrickyPhillips: network-manager-gnome ?
[07:31] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:31] <kupesoft> FreddyC: Try a mac,
[07:31] <sipher_> Thanks for the wiki.beryl response
[07:32] <DogWater> is glade the name of the gui for ubuntu?
[07:32] <poningru> T-ROK: sudo mount /dev/hdxx /mnt/windows
[07:32] <tarelerulz> well, the unbuntu.exe windows installer is doing its thing
[07:32] <Noiano> hello
[07:32] <bauer77> FreddyC I cant stand Vista. what a resource hog
[07:32] <FreddyC> ha ha ha.  whats wrong with linux
[07:32] <TrickyPhillips> riotkittie: Hmm, I think that was it. Installing now, to check.
[07:32] <tarelerulz> wish me luck
[07:32] <JaXxon> T-Rok: you should be able to boot on live cd - no install jsut to play around with ubuntu first
[07:32] <kupesoft> FreddyC: Nothing, it's just not for you
[07:32] <nothlit> tarelerulz, you're running that beta inside windows installer?
[07:32] <T-ROK> ok
[07:32] <T-ROK> im going to go test things out
[07:32] <FreddyC> dont say that.  thats not nice
[07:32] <T-ROK> i'll probably be back
[07:32] <poningru> T-ROK: but replace /dev/hdxx with whatever your partition is so it is going to be something like /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda2 or /dev/hdb1 or /dev/hdb2 etc.
[07:32] <LjL> kupesoft: ?
[07:32] <poningru> ...
[07:32] <JaXxon> T-ROK just boot with the CD in
[07:32] <kupesoft> FreddyC: Okay, try Linux, but don't say I didn't warn you,
[07:32] <tarelerulz> I would like to thank everyone that helped me.
[07:33] <FreddyC> you dont have to be an idiot to have trouble moving over
[07:33] <FreddyC> its a diferent world
[07:33] <LjL> kupesoft: what's the rationale behind linux not being for FreddyC?
[07:33] <poningru> tarelerulz: keep in mind dude if you install I think it doesnt save all your stuff
[07:33] <gberardi> I'm using Edgy, but I am trying to use kernel 2.6.19 from kernel.org.  Are there any caveats to running a non-Ubuntu provided kernel that I should be worried about?
[07:33] <poningru> not sure though
[07:33] <bauer77> I was wondering that myself
[07:33] <kupesoft> LjL: Gut instinct!
[07:33] <poningru> !kernel | gberardi
[07:33] <ubotu> gberardi: 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
[07:33] <Atomiku> Is there any way to get Free nx through apt-get ?
[07:33] <riotkittie> uhh.
[07:33] <LjL> kupesoft: well i'm not sure that sort of instinct is really appropriate for this channel
[07:34] <kupesoft> LjL: I'll only let the positive ones through,
[07:34] <nothlit> Atomiku, only for dapper
[07:34] <poningru> FreddyC: yeah dont listen to that guy
[07:34] <Atomiku> Awww ;(
[07:34] <LjL> good ;)
[07:34] <nothlit> !seveas | Atomiku

[07:34] <Noiano> i need help to install edgy: my keyboard does not write
[07:34] <FreddyC> look ive come along way with my linux distros since i started dabbling in mandrake 8.  im not completly new .  just having some trouble with myth tv
[07:34] <Atomiku> Thanks nothlit, I'll check it out. :-)
[07:34] <nothlit> ubotu, tell FreddyC about mythtv
[07:34] <LjL> keyboards don't write Noiano, they just detect keypresses... :-) ok, you can boot the live CD, but you can't use the keyboard?
[07:35] <FreddyC> but ive never felt as comfortable about a switch as i do now with ububtu 6.06
[07:35] <FreddyC> its been lovely
[07:35] <Noiano> LjL i can only select "start or install kubuntu"
[07:35] <JaXxon> If i do an "sudo apt-get install eclipse" I get a Err http://archive.ubuntu.com edgy/universe eclipse-rcp 3.2.1-0ubuntu1  Bad header line [IP: 195.248.90.38 80]  could the repos be bad?
[07:35] <elwario91> hello
[07:35] <DogWater> does anyone know the command that is similar to yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment" for 6.10?
[07:35] <Noiano> but afther keyboard seems dead
[07:35] <elwario91> I have a question about apt-get
[07:35] <LjL> !netsplit
[07:35] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[07:35] <mrstocks> hi, how do i go from kdm to gdm ?
[07:36] <JaXxon> elwario91: what is it?
[07:36] <nothlit> mrstocks, sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[07:36] <elwario91> I will reinstall kubuntu
[07:36] <LjL> Noiano: but on the screen where you select "start or install kubuntu", you can use the keyboard, correct? is that an USB or PS/2 keyboard?
[07:36] <elwario91> and I wan't to backup and copy the downloaded packages
[07:36] <Noiano> ljl PS2
[07:36] <elwario91> so that they can be installed with apt-get
[07:36] <elwario91> without downloading again
[07:37] <DogWater> ok i think i finally figured it out
[07:37] <LjL> elwario91: they're in /var/cache/apt/archives
[07:37] <elwario91> but I tried and he downloads again
[07:37] <DogWater> its apt-get install edubuntu
[07:37] <DogWater> lol
[07:37] <DogWater> has anyone gotten 6.10 working on a ps3 yet?
[07:37] <elwario91> yes I know lol
[07:37] <elwario91> but I will reinstall ubuntu
[07:37] <tarelerulz> loopback mean it run from the image file and does not write to anywhere else
[07:37] <K-Rich> Can anyone help me with backing up to DVD on dapper using mondo ?
[07:37] <elwario91> and made them installable withyt downloading them again
[07:37] <LjL> elwario91: i've done that before, and it worked. make sure you restore the correct permissions for the files
[07:37] <elwario91> only copy the packages?
[07:37] <Atomiku> Okay so i'm having trouble installing freenx manually.. I got all sorts of errors here about something not being found.. :S
[07:37] <elwario91> or the config files too?
[07:38] <Akuma_> what does the rc stand for in config files? bashrc, irbrc, gtkrc, etc?
[07:38] <nothlit> DogWater, i know someone ran xubuntu on the ps3
[07:38] <Noiano> LjL any clues?
[07:38] <JaXxon> elwario91: take a look at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#Installing_Additional_Software
[07:38] <LjL> elwario91: just copying the .deb's worked for me. the permissions must be -rw-r--r-- with owner root:root
[07:38] <kupesoft> What's the rational behind Ubuntu coming out of the box with the hostname resolving to 127.0.1.1 and localhost resolving to 127.0.0.1 (/etc/hosts)?
[07:38] <elwario91> ok
[07:38] <nothlit> Atomiku, #linux
[07:38] <elwario91> I will try thanks
[07:38] <elwario91> I have a second question
[07:38] <nothlit> Atomiku, err ##linux
[07:38] <elwario91> is it better to use nvidia-glx or nvidia.run?
[07:38] <Atomiku> k
[07:38] <DogWater> kupesoft: because 127.0.0.1 is localhost
[07:39] <kupesoft> DogWater: and "hostname" is 127.0.1.1?
[07:39] <gberardi> Ok, so if i want to get access to the latest development sources,  I can't just apt-get kernel-source, since that will just provide 2.6.17 (what Edgy comes with). Do I understand those kernel wiki pages correctly?
[07:39] <JaXxon> elwario91: not sure i know what you mean there
[07:39] <LjL> Noiano, not quite, i'll dig bug reports a little. i've only seen one person with that problem before, and i'm not sure if he solved it. you don't happen to have a USB keyboard to try?
[07:39] <DogWater> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localhost
[07:39] <LjL> elwario91: nvidia-glx
[07:39] <nothlit> kupesoft, hostname is something you set
[07:39] <FreddyC> maybe i should look for a mythtv channle
[07:39] <gberardi> Apparently I need to use git
[07:39] <JaXxon> elwario91: are you trying to install xgl?
[07:39] <elwario91> for my nvidia graphic card
[07:39] <LjL> elwario91: use the ubuntu package unless you positively know that you need something else
[07:39] <elwario91> not xgl nvidia-glx
[07:39] <kupesoft> I'm confused as to why it comes out of the box as 127.0.1.1...
[07:39] <JaXxon> elwario91: use the ubuntu packages if you have edgy
[07:40] <Noiano> LjL i have only a ps2 keyboard....i am upgrading from dapper and i have never experrienced such problem
[07:40] <elwario91> ok
[07:40] <elwario91> but are tey even good as nvidia.run?
[07:40] <JaXxon> elwari091: looking for wiki on it one min
[07:40] <LjL> Noiano: you're upgrading from dapper? hmm
[07:40] <NightDream> anyone works on fujitsu - siemens laptop?
[07:40] <Noiano> LjL yeas
[07:40] <LjL> Noiano: i support the Dapper Live CD works fine
[07:40] <nothlit> elwario91, better
[07:40] <SPuTN1cK> hi there
[07:40] <LjL> i mean i suppose, not support Noiano
[07:40] <elwario91> ok
[07:40] <Noiano> Yes, it does LjL
[07:40] <nothlit> elwario91, if you install drivers manually you will have issues trying to revert
[07:40] <elwario91> but what is the driver version then?
[07:41] <nothlit> !info nvidia-glx
[07:41] <ubuntu> hi
[07:41] <ubotu> nvidia-glx: NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org driver. In component restricted, is optional. Version 1.0.8776+2.6.17.7-10.1 (edgy), package size 3970 kB, installed size 12312 kB
[07:41] <nothlit> ^
[07:41] <JaXxon> elwario91: look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29
[07:41] <elwario91> ok
[07:41] <elwario91> thanks
[07:41] <JaXxon> np
[07:41] <SPuTN1cK> is there some know issues whith edgy/kde & oowriter ? I only get the top window decoration when I open a oowriter document...
[07:42] <dllh> I'm unable to find java-packages for edgy; where can I get this so that I can install the java sdk?
[07:42] <HymnToLife> !java | dllh
[07:42] <ubotu> dllh: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[07:42] <LjL> Noiano, here's one candidate bug report: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xkeyboard-config/+bug/55294
[07:42] <dllh> thanks!
[07:42] <ubuntu> how do i install ubuntu into a folder. ubiquity only scan for harddisks.
[07:42] <Noiano> LjL thanks...i will read
[07:42] <squisher> Hi everyone, how can I find an SMP enabled kernel in edgy?
[07:43] <riotkittie> into a folder ?
[07:43] <mikejanssen> i dont know waht i like more...gde or kde...
[07:43] <mikejanssen> hmm
[07:43] <mikejanssen> heh
[07:43] <Nox2k5> So, apparently, my system is hard locking with no logging and no intelligible errors from the kernel. Sweet,
[07:43] <JaXxon> dllh: look at http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_JRE_v5.0_Update_10 and http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Java_Development_Kit_.28JDK.29_v5.0
[07:43] <Nox2k5> Works fine off the install cd though.
[07:43] <riotkittie> ubuntu: why do you want to insall ubuntu into a folder?
[07:43] <elwario91> thanks to everybody who helped me ;)
[07:43] <LjL> Noiano: here's another, it talks about gdm but later explains it is not really related - https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/59616
[07:43] <elwario91> now I go bye
[07:43] <dllh> JaXxon, thanks
[07:43] <JaXxon> np
[07:43] <LjL> Noiano: haven't found a candidate solution yet though, aside from downgrading a package to the dapper version (hard)
[07:43] <squisher> When i search for linux-image, I only find 386, generic and server - but the description really sucks and doesn't say what exactly the difference is (and smp is not mentioned)
[07:43] <CheshireViking> i know antivirus isn't considered a necessity with linux, however i would prefer not to knowingly forward a virus i'd received via email from a windows user to another  windows user, can somebody point me towards a scanner that would scan mail sent/received automatically - i'm using ubuntu 6.1 as a desktop o/s, not as an email server etc, thanks in advance
[07:44] <Noiano> LjL the fact is that i am a newbie and i do not know what to do
[07:44] <Lars_G> What was the "developer's" metapackage? (gcc, make, etc?)
[07:44] <LjL> Noiano, i'd keep dapper for the time being
[07:44] <Pici> Lars_G : build-essential
[07:44] <riotkittie> Lars_G: build-essential
[07:44] <Lars_G> thanks
[07:44] <ubuntu> riotkittie: because i only have a diskless client and want the bootloader and kernel on an usb stick.
[07:44] <Noiano> LjL...i will :((
[07:44] <riotkittie> ubuntu: ahh.
[07:45] <SPuTN1cK> squisher, I think the "generic" one is good
[07:45] <SPuTN1cK> squisher, sudo apt-cache search generic
[07:45] <joefreire> galera me da um help aki
[07:45] <nothlit> darn Noiano quit, i was going to tell him about usb emulation in the bios

[07:46] <LjL> nothlit: hm didn't know about that (well i don't think my bios has that). still anyway, it's not like keeping dapper is the end of the world like it seemed to be for him :P
[07:46] <pbureau> how do I check what is connected to my USB ports ? (command?)
[07:46] <LjL> pbureau: lsusb
[07:46] <CheshireViking> JaXxon: thanks for that, i'll have a look, although i';m using gnome, not kde, hopefully it'll give some pointers anyway
[07:47] <JaXxon> CheshireViking: I am on Gnome too and have only found that so far
[07:47] <pbureau> LjL,  thanks.... oh if anyone asks again about the T30 iriver issue.... find me... figured it out
[07:47] <CheshireViking> JaXxon: thanks, i'll give it a go then
[07:47] <JaXxon> pbureau: is you type dmesg on the console it will print kernel messages. If you just plugged in a USBdivice it will tell you some about it
[07:48] <LjL> pbureau: ok
[07:48] <knight> can any1 tell me how cant i download a wiki site http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki by using wget -r http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki?
[07:48] <pbureau> JaXxon,  seems ubuntu could not see my UMS T30 iriver because it was connected to a usb extrenal port expansion thingie.
[07:48] <knight> download shows only 0 bytes downloaded
[07:49] <JaXxon> ah
[07:49] <pbureau> JaXxon,  plugged it right into the port and I see it now (not the usuall T30 issue (its a MTP versus UMS issue really..)
[07:49] <LjL> knight: try --mirror
[07:49] <knight> LjL: how?
[07:49] <LjL> knight: wget --mirror site
[07:49] <abo_> is there a command that list all symbolic links ...linking to a file or directory?
[07:49] <JaXxon> What is a T30?
[07:50] <knight> LjL: where can i find mirror site?
[07:50] <JaXxon> abo is you do an ls -l the links will be printed out for the current director
[07:50] <ubuntu> Pici: The Problem is, that Step 1 will fail while Parted will find no disks.
[07:51] <squisher> SPuTN1cK: Ups... why doesn't ubuntu make a newly installed kernel the default? I was still in 386, even though I installed generic and rebooted... that explains
[07:51] <pbureau> JaXxon,  iriver T30 is a portable 1GB mp3 player (MTP by default in the USA forcing to use Winblows priority software - but there is a way around it for linux)
[07:51] <LjL> knight: just type wget --mirror http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki
[07:51] <JaXxon> I see
[07:51] <LjL> knight: it's an option. an option of wget
[07:52] <knight> LjL: but same result
[07:52] <ubuntu> Pici: ubiquity scans for all harddisks (usb and internal) and is running parted.
[07:52] <LjL> abo_: i don't know if there is such a program, but keep in mind that any such program will have to scan your entire filesystem - that takes time
[07:52] <SecrethX> pbureau, do you know something for the Philips Jukebox (or HDD6320) 30G?
[07:52] <pbureau> SecrethX,  does your firware indicate if it is MTP or UMS ?
[07:53] <pbureau> s/firware/firmware
[07:53] <abo_> LjL, ok .. thx
[07:53] <SecrethX> pbureau, not quite sure.. ill look into it
[07:53] <ubuntu> Pici: I need a solution, where i can tell ubiquity which Folder it should use as root.
[07:54] <Nox2k5> Is there any way to get a list of modules that ubuntu will load on bootup?
[07:54] <Nox2k5> I believe that some module is hard locking the kernel when it tries to load but I'm not getting any output
[07:55] <LjL> abo_: if you still want it, i can make a command line for that i suppose
[07:55] <abo_> LjL, oh ... yes please
[07:56] <knight>  can any1 tell me how cant i download a wiki site http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki by using wget -r http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki? download shows only 0 bytes downloaded
[07:56] <JaXxon> Nox2k5 can you :  cat /var/log/boot
[07:56] <LjL> knight: wget respects the robots.txt file for sites, and for that site apparently it instructs it to avoid recursive downloads
[07:56] <Nox2k5> don't get to the logging part
[07:56] <Nox2k5> thats empty
[07:56] <JaXxon> oops
[07:56] <pbureau> SecrethX,  the whole issue with MP3 player is that alot of them need to use Windows Player  (using MTP encryption) and linux cannot load/see the drive as a regular USB drive. the way around that (if possible for your model) is to check the european web site for your model and see if they have an MTP-UMS firmware (what I did) and this permits to ubuntu to see/access the mp3 player as a usb drive.
[07:56] <dimeo> What's the best way to make a backup copy of a DVD... K9Copy did alright, but theres no menu in the DVD now... any sugguestions?
[07:56] <LjL> knight: getting around that will probably not be liked by the site administrators
[07:56] <LjL> abo_: a minut
[07:57] <nweaver916> anyone know how to make Evolution delete pop3mail once it's deleted in the client?
[07:57] <SPuTN1cK> nweaver916, you ned
[07:57] <SecrethX> pbureau, okay, I understand.. but how can I change the firmware if I dont have any windows available ? ;O
[07:57] <SPuTN1cK> nweaver916, you need imap protocol
[07:58] <pbureau> SecrethX,  well that is the egg-chicken dillema, I have multiple computers so I did not have this issue.. maybe do it from an internet cafe shop
[07:58] <nweaver916> server is only pop3
[07:58] <SecrethX> hmm ok
[07:58] <nweaver916> I know outlook offers to leave mail on the server until deleted locally
[07:58] <datachild> i've done a netstat -nap and i saw that some of the ports for my irc are being used, how do i find the processes using these ports, and shutting them down? since i cant restart it because it says that my "ports are already used"
[07:58] <JaXxon> Nox2k5 are you on edgy?
[07:58] <pbureau> Thundermail has that options as well
[07:58] <SecrethX> pbureau, so if they dont have that FirmWare, I have a problem? :o
[07:59] <pbureau> SecrethX, basically... yep if you cannot switch to UMS... then nope no linux option
[07:59] <tabas> does someone have an idea how to install ubuntu into a folder?
[07:59] <SecrethX> pbureau, http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?scy=BE&slg=NLD&mid=Link_Software&sct=HDD_AUDIO_JUKEBOX_SU_BE_CONSUMER&cat=MP3_PLAYERS_CA_BE_CONSUMER&session=20070125135507_87.67.50.6&grp=PORTABLE_ENTERTAINMENT_GR_BE_CONSUMER&ctn=HDD6320/00&dct=FUS&did=AEN&file=/files/h/hdd6320_00/hdd6320_00_fur_aen.htm

[08:00] <LjL> abo_: find -L / -samefile <filename> -type l
[08:00] <pbureau> SecrethX,  check google with "ubuntu Philips Jukebox" you may find blogs/projects about it
[08:00] <SecrethX> okay will do, thanks anyway pbureau
[08:00] <LjL> abo_: change "/" to something else if you only want to search a smaller part of your filesystem
[08:00] <Nox2k5> JaXxon: Yes, just installed it, first boot, kaboom.
[08:00] <pbureau> SecrethX, that is what I did... and experimented.. :)
[08:00] <knight> is it true that we can see movies, browse, view jpgs from emacs? how can i study using emacs for such things?

[08:04] <Arithmomaniac> I'm back
[08:04] <Nox2k5> huh? you mean is it possible to force it to always use ipv4 in firefox?
[08:04] <Nox2k5> or just disable ipv6 in general?
[08:04] <Arithmomaniac> How do I port forward through my router?

[08:05] <deafboy> Could anyone help me get my Realtek card reader working?
[08:05] <lord_nelson> stop drinking the MS Kool Aid
[08:05] <javaprog> yes just disable ip ver 6
[08:05] <newbieBill> I did the automount script it I got this
[08:05] <newbieBill> Added /dev/sda3 as '/media/sda3'
[08:05] <newbieBill> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda3,

[08:05] <newbieBill>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[08:05] <newbieBill>        dmesg | tail  or so
[08:05] <newbieBill> All windows and mac partitions will now be mounted every time you boot
[08:05] <Arithmomaniac> I don't knwo how to find out what port is used by the router; it is run by a third party
[08:05] <newbieBill> You do not need to reboot, the partitions are mounted now too

[08:07] <Arithmomaniac> Thanks
[08:07] <Arithmomaniac> what about the port forwarding?
[08:07] <Nox2k5> that depends on your router
[08:07] <deafboy> Ljl: do you know anything about card readers?
[08:07] <Nox2k5> windows uses UPNP, sometimes, to, sometimes properly setup port forwarding
[08:07] <LjL> Arithmomaniac, it depends entirely on your router
[08:07] <LjL> deafboy: define card reader
[08:08] <Arithmomaniac> si If windows uses upnp, is it available in Linux?
[08:08] <Nox2k5> you can google for getting upnp to work on Ubuntu in some fashion, though I haven't really tried ever doing it
[08:08] <Arithmomaniac> Thanks

[08:08] <Nox2k5> well
[08:08] <Nox2k5> he wants client side upnp
[08:08] <LjL> nweaver916: not much use when your linux *isn't* the router
[08:08] <Nox2k5> im not sure if thats package dependant or what
[08:09] <deafboy> Ljl: all in one memory stick reader in a laptop (SD/PRO/MS) etc
[08:09] <thenetduck> does anyone know if crossover is any good?
[08:09] <nweaver916> Ljl: then they need to be more specific :)
[08:09] <thenetduck> Like will crossover run photoshop cs2 and quickbooks?
[08:09] <LjL> uhm Nox2k5, from what i can understand, it's the single programs that should behave as upnp clients (using thelibupnp0 library package in ubuntu), see the description for linux-igd
[08:09] <LjL> Nox2k5: i can't see a "generic" client in the repos
[08:10] <Nox2k5> yeah I suppose I shouldn't have sent him on a upnp crusade
[08:10] <Nox2k5> this is going to end badly im sure

[08:10] <tim167> how do I change the default kernel that GRUB loads ?
[08:10] <thenetduck> tim167, I can help you there.
[08:10] <tomvendetta> Hi.. I currently have ubuntu edgy installed, I want to reformat my hardrive and reinstall ubuntu so I can have a fresh/clean install... is there any easy way I can do this, or any tutorial? I am not sure what I am doing =S
[08:10] <tim167> thenetduck: cool
[08:10] <riotkittie> tim167: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:11] <nweaver916> tim167 edit menu.1rst (or whatever Ubuntu uses) vi /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:11] <thenetduck> tim167, you need to go to your main dir.. err what he just said
[08:11] <deafboy> Ljl: i heard there is a lack of Memory Stick support right now, i know SD cards are supported
[08:11] <Khem> tim167: edit you /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:11] <deafboy> Ljl: if i do "lspci" it detects my card bud i dunno if thats all i need
[08:11] <nweaver916> my memory stick works fine
[08:11] <nweaver916> adds a usb icon on the desktop
[08:11] <thenetduck> tim167, you go there, and just follow the pattern how everything is done, and it's easy to figure out .. if you have problems come back
[08:11] <LjL> never had memory stick, actually all i have is CF
[08:11] <deafboy> nweaver916: is it internal?
[08:12] <nweaver916> no
[08:12] <nweaver916> external reader
[08:12] <nweaver916> iirc, been a long time since I used it
[08:12] <deafboy> DAMIT
[08:12] <deafboy> only piece of hardware i might not get working :(
[08:12] <foutrelis> !language
[08:12] <tim167> allright, that's quick response guys! thanks checking /boot/grub/menu.lst now :)
[08:12] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:12] <nweaver916> if you put a card in, and tail dmesg does it find it?
[08:12] <ph1zzle|laptop> I was hoping someone could help me out here, I installed nvidia on my computer back in oct I think it was, it's on edgy eft, I just rebooted X today and it said in console during the reboot, nvidia not found, I reinstalled nvidia ( I don't know where it went) a few ways but beryl is only partially running and I can't get the proper resolution through xorg.conf or nvidia-settings
[08:12] <pbureau> I found that sometime it doesnt reconizes the memory stick because the "reader" isnt reconized, I use a sandisk external card reader myself and it sees CF and SD just fine
[08:12] <deafboy> nweaver916: "tail dmsg" is the command?
[08:13] <yuesef1> is there any gmail alert with filter in Ubuntu?
[08:13] <nweaver916> deafboy: I usually just type dmesg and look at the end, I'm lazy
[08:13] <nweaver916> yuesef1: check mail-notifier. I haven't tried it with my gmail, only my evolution accounts
[08:14] <nweaver916> Yuesef1: it's supported int mail-notify applet
[08:14] <ph1zzle|laptop> I also upgraded libc today and i noticed that upgrading nvidia through apt-get was replacing it with linux restricted
[08:14] <yuesef1> thank you nweaver

[08:18] <rredd4> torrr  why?
[08:19] <LjL> tarelerulz: ...?

[08:19] <BoyBlunder> hello, I'm having some issues with my networking after I ran some updates, my wireless adapter has completely disappeared, even though it is visible through the device manager...any help?

[08:20] <pbureau> anyone know an gnome app that would play (I know xmms does this) mp3, but I am looking for one that would permit me to transfer to  my usb device as well ?
[08:20] <kolla> how do one put windows into grub's menu.lst so that update-grub doesnt remove it?
[08:20] <ph1zzle|laptop> foutrelis, when was u'r prob?
[08:20] <torrr> rredd4: I have been told that ubuntu is a good distro for CrossOver Office.
[08:20] <tim167> what's the status on ubuntu for Intel Mac ?
[08:20] <LjL> tarelerulz: ah yeah, i'd heard of it... isn't it extremely experimental and only for developers as of right now?
[08:20] <bauer77> BoyBlunder did you check to make sure that you selected ra0 as your connecting device?
[08:20] <foutrelis> ph1zzle|laptop: My problem was the "no borders" thing using beryl :)
[08:20] <BoyBlunder> bauer77, ra0? it was working under eth1 before...
[08:20] <rredd4> torrr hi, please ask your question so that others may help you about xserves
[08:21] <rredd4> xservers
[08:21] <bauer77> ah ok, I thought that eth1 was a ethernet connection
[08:21] <Freedom__> hi
[08:21] <ph1zzle|laptop> foutrelis, with nvidia I shouldn't need aiglx, according to the site for beryl, nvidia has an option that doesn't use aiglx or glx
[08:21] <Freedom__> cirrus
[08:21] <tim167> kolla: make a backup of /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[08:21] <torrr> rredd4: I am OK with Xservers, I have done a demo instalation on VMWare VM of Gentoo. And used it from my windwos with Xserver
[08:21] <foutrelis> ph1zzle|laptop: It worked for me with the latest nvidia drivers
[08:21] <bauer77> did you make sure that your wireless adapter is installed under network?
[08:22] <tim167> kolla: so that you can always restore it whatever happens to grub settings
[08:22] <ph1zzle|laptop> foutrelis, really? ok, will try it
[08:22] <BoyBlunder> bauer77, it will not let me install it, it tells me there are no available adapters
[08:22] <tarelerulz> only for dev hu that is lame haha
[08:22] <foutrelis> ph1zzle|laptop: I forgot something
[08:22] <BoyBlunder> bauer77, but lspci shows it there, as well as etc/interfaces
[08:22] <ph1zzle|laptop> ?
[08:22] <bauer77> I had a similar problem but just had to go into System k Administration, and then Networking
[08:22] <torrr> rredd4: I am just wondering about performance, and supporting comunity
[08:22] <kolla> tim167: I'm not newbie, I just want to know
[08:22] <foutrelis> ph1zzle|laptop: Load "dri" @ Section "Module"
[08:22] <bauer77> hmm sorry Boy, i am not that advanced to know the answer.
[08:23] <BoyBlunder> thanks bauer77
[08:23] <BoyBlunder> anyone else?
[08:23] <tim167> kolla: sorry, I just discovered the joys of /boot/grub/menu.lst :-P
[08:23] <rredd4> torrr cool, dapper is supported for 5 years and you can get support from its company.  go to www.ubuntu.com
[08:23] <kolla> tim167: surely there is a way to insert the chainloader entry in a way so that update-grub doesnt remove it :)
[08:23] <bauer77> Hey Boy if you do ifconfig does it show the adapter there?
[08:24] <kolla> tim167: aha, ok :)
[08:24] <MikeMcA> Hello.  Any recommendations for a video card that will work with dual monitors (one VGA one DVI) and support hardware acceleration (2d for sure, 3d would be nice but not necessary) and not be a complete pain in the butt to set up?  Thanks!

[08:25] <dimeo> can i mount an iso as a drive?
[08:25] <nweaver916> dimeo: look at loop device mounting
[08:25] <tim167> kolla: I thaught I was doomed to allways tap ESC on "grub loading stage 1.5" to prevent it from loading a bad kernel, now that's history :) ...
[08:25] <MikeMcA> nweaver: sweet.  Dual monitor setup as I described?
[08:25] <kolla> tim167: good to hear :)

[08:29] <Pici> dee : That site explains that they've switched to SVN from CVS, so you need to go to http://svn.gnome.org/
[08:29] <Atomiku> Odd... Ive added "deb http://kanotix.com/files/debian/ ./" to the etc/apt/sources.list
[08:29] <Atomiku> When I run apt-get install freenx, it says package not found
[08:29] <TSWoodV> Atomiku:  Did you run "apt-get update" first?
[08:29] <Atomiku> Nope, because i'm a noob ^_^;;
[08:30] <Atomiku> Doing it now :p
[08:30] <TSWoodV> LOL!
[08:30] <Atomiku> Done it, Still getting E: Couldn't find package freenx

[08:31] <TSWoodV> Atomiku: Try "apt-caceh search nx" and see what you get
[08:31] <host_> what should I install for java?
[08:31] <riotkittie> !java | host_
[08:31] <ubotu> host_: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[08:31] <Atomiku> TSWoodV: Nothing in particular.
[08:32] <TSWoodV> Atom-: Sorry - try "apt-cache search nx" - misspelled above.
[08:32] <Atomiku> Yeah, I corrected that :-P
[08:32] <TSWoodV> Atomiku: Then it seems that the entry in sources.list isn't where those packages reside.
[08:32] <Atomiku> I've put it at the bottom
[08:33] <Atomiku> When I did the update command, I believe I saw that deb entry I added

[08:34] <Seveas> Arrick, yes
[08:34] <Arrick> Seveas I downloaded the Chanserv.py plugin and I need to know how (in windows) to get it to autoload if there is a way.
[08:34] <Arrick> in xchat2?
[08:34] <Seveas> Arrick, no idea :)
[08:34] <Arrick> ol
[08:35] <Arrick> did you write that?
[08:35] <TSWoodV> Atomiku: kanotix is for all intents and purposes dead now anyway.
[08:35] <dimeo> to make a DVD backup copy... rightclick and copy... could it be *that* easy? 8-)
[08:35] <Atomiku> Ahh
[08:35] <Atomiku> !freenx
[08:35] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[08:35] <mc44> Arrick: there is no Windows in Seveas' reality :)
[08:35] <Atomiku> Thanks ubotu
[08:35] <Seveas> mc44, only at work there is
[08:35] <dimeo> Atomiku... freenx rocks! waaay faster than VNC
[08:35] <Seveas> have to do a lot of windows there
[08:35] <mc44> Seveas: work is but a fantasy
[08:35] <Arrick> mc44, I know, btu I believe he wrote the script for xchat across the board
[08:36] <Atomiku> I had the commercial NX installed before, it worked quite well (Although it was a bit laggy) but it expired
[08:36] <Seveas> mc44, heh, my 30-hour shift last week certainly wasn't :)
[08:36] <Arrick> at least when I manually load it it works lol
[08:36] <Atomiku> dimeo: Care to share how you managed to install FreeNX?
[08:36] <Arrick> Seveas, hire me, then you wont have to work so long
[08:36] <ph1zzle|laptop> foutrelis, thank you< have window borders now, lol
[08:37] <ph1zzle|laptop> still need to find why I can't get proper scrren res though, lol
[08:37] <vleon> how do i create an iso in ubuntu from files on my comp? (with what program?0
[08:37] <dimeo> atomiku... wish i remembered... i don't think i took any notes too... but it couldnt' have been very hard, cause I did it!
[08:37] <Atomiku> :P
[08:38] <dimeo> Maybe a few nights of hobby hacking.. probably not a point and click install?
[08:38] <tam> what is permissions so someone can read a directory but not do anyhting else? is it like 622?
[08:38] <bronze_0_1> yes
[08:38] <Atomiku> I'll just have to install it manually... I already downloaded the tar.gz, I tried to nxinstall but It said I was missing some packages... nxcommon or something
[08:38] <tarelerulz> so the ubuntu.exe is for for dev and not anyone else yet?
[08:39] <tam> bronze_0_1: cheers

[08:43] <erad> rev, if you're old school, maybe you know how to adjust the gdm startup script?

[08:44] <pbureau> sorush20,  maybe gmail uses a flash module.. did you check if you add a flash addon  (tools/addons)?
[08:45] <Pici> rev : Er, I'm not sure, I'm not on ubuntu at the moment, I remember the option being there at one point in time though
[08:45] <erad> mzanfardino, about:
[08:45] <mzanfardino> maybe a more appropriate question to this channel would be: how do I return the value of a symbolic link
[08:45] <mzanfardino> erad: thank you
[08:45] <mxli20> i need to fix something wrong with xgl/beryl;  when i see a movie, after 10 o 15 minutes my screen turns black and i need to move my mouse for to see my movie again, i've already tried to change my screensaver configuration and the power management configuration, but i'm still with the same problem....
[08:45] <erad> mzanfardino, ls can return the information about a symlink, btw
[08:46] <erad> mxli20, xgl? tried aiglx?
[08:46] <rafase282> alguien me puede ayudar con mi webcam?
[08:46] <mzanfardino> erad: I'm trying to figure out where mozillia is installed on my machine. Unfortunately about: isn't doing it.  I guess I have to ls /bin/firefox or some such thing
[08:46] <aloisio> all: hi, I need to remove gnome-netstatus-applet from session startup via shell. Anybody knows how to do this?
[08:46] <rafase282> I need help with my webcam

[08:47] <Lafoune> Salut tout le monde
[08:47] <mxli20> actually i have a nvidia
[08:47] <Quarupt> Hey whats the easiest way to access my ipod using linux, to just add and remove music?
[08:47] <mxli20> graphic carg
[08:47] <erad> mzanfardino, use synaptic and find the package - then look at the list of installed files (right-click -> properties I think)
[08:47] <erad> or, you can use whereis
[08:48] <thrashmonkey> Hello people.  Does anybody know how to list all the packages from one particular source?
[08:48] <Quarupt> Anyone use there Ipod with Ubuntu?
[08:48] <mxli20> erad i have an nvidia....
[08:48] <erad> thrashmonkey, odd question, hrmm.... you could go to the url of the repository using a generic web browser
[08:48] <erad> !ipod
[08:48] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[08:48] <mzanfardino> I like the whereis.  I take it that's similar to locate?
[08:48] <erad> mxli20, lol, try the beta drivers - they don't need xgl
[08:48] <vleon> how do i create an iso in ubuntu from files on my comp? (with what program?)
[08:49] <erad> vleon, mkisofs
[08:49] <gb__> vleon, k3b?
[08:49] <gb__> vleon, or mkisofs command
[08:49] <mzanfardino> vleon: I've used dd to create ISO's of cd's
[08:49] <mxli20> erad: i've tried that too, but it seems slow
[08:49] <erad> mxli20, hmm, oh well
[08:49] <mzanfardino> vleon: if you are looking for a cli command
[08:50] <mxli20> erad: xgl works fine... that's the only problem
[08:50] <erad> mxli20, ah - well, google - I've hearda this problem before
[08:50] <erad> also see #beryl and #ubuntu-xgl
[08:50] <aloisio> all: hi, I need to remove gnome-netstatus-applet from session startup via shell. Anybody knows how to do this?
[08:50] <rev> dimeo: hey, what did oyu mean by ./ my way to whateverness? create a .Xclients, or am i just too dense to follow you?
[08:50] <mzanfardino> vleon:  the format I've used is: dd if=<source path> of=<filename.iso> ds=1024
[08:50] <mzanfardino> vleon: or at least, that's worked for me.
[08:50] <rev> heya0007: that's awesome
[08:50] <thrashmonkey>  erad:  I tried that but it's just a web page with not much info.  I thought I might be missing something in the apt or dpkg info.
[08:51] <Agrajag> mzanfardino: I think he's trying to make an iso of files on his hard disk, not copy a CD
[08:51] <erad> mzanfardino, careful when recommending dd - easy to b0rk your disk if you mistype it
[08:51] <erad> and also, he's trying to turn a directory into an iso
[08:51] <alex_> can anyone make a reccomendation on what i should use to orgainzed my 20gb music collection?
[08:51] <heya0007> rev, that guys must be a micro$oft fan or he love bills
[08:51] <erad> alex_, amarok
[08:51] <erad> don't let anyone tell ya otherwise
[08:51] <alex_> tag editing
[08:51] <mxli20> erad: yes i've heard about this problem too, but i don't rememember where and i can't find it
[08:51] <mzanfardino> Agrajag: I think it should still work with files from a directory, but to be honest I don't know.  It's just the way I've done it in the past
[08:52] <mzanfardino> erad: ok, I will refrain from recommending dd... :)
[08:52] <thrashmonkey> alex_:easytag
[08:52] <erad> alex_, id3tools and easytag if you're into gtk
[08:52] <rogue780_> I'm trying to make a to another directory by ln -s /videos /shares/files/videos but when I am in /shares/files/videos and try to cd videos it saysvideos: Too many levels of symbolic links. can someone help me with this?
[08:52] <gb__> dd can be deadly :D
[08:52] <Agrajag> mzanfardino: no, it wouldn't.
[08:52] <alex_> will easytag search cddb and fill tags?
[08:52] <thrashmonkey> alex_: yes
[08:52] <jadacyrus> Under Desktop Background preferences in gnome, when I switch from Tiled/Zoom/Center it doesnt change anything. It keeps it on tiled. Is it because im using a dual display setup?
[08:52] <Agrajag> mzanfardino: dd will not create an ISO filesystem, it works for making copies of CDs because the filesystem has already beencreated
[08:52] <alex_> or does it just guess from file names
[08:53] <mzanfardino> Agrajag: I thought dd was merely a bit-for-bit copy utility...
[08:53] <mzanfardino> Agrajag: ah!  Oh, thanks
[08:53] <erad> alex_, it guesses from filenames and I think it supports freedb/musicbrainz but I can't tell ya for certain
[08:53] <mzanfardino> vleon: in that case, nevermind what I said
[08:54] <erad> alex_, yep, it searches freedb
[08:54] <magical_trevsky> hi, can anyone give me a regexp that'll match all words that are exactly 6 letters long?
[08:55] <alex_> is there a way for it to rename the files with artist name and song title? no release and all the other crap that is sometimes added?
[08:55] <heya0007> rev, it must be a joke or something like that
[08:55] <belkin> whats the name of that gui archiver ?
[08:55] <rev> heya0007: no, i think he's just a MSCE
[08:55] <rev> heya0007: :)
[08:55] <erad> alex_, look at it - it's highly configurable (unusual for gnome)
[08:56] <rev> heya0007: a lot of MSCEs are like that, sadly
[08:56] <mxli20> please i need help.  i need to fix something wrong with xgl/beryl;  when i see a movie, after 10 o 15 minutes my screen turns black and i need to move my mouse for to see my movie again, i've already tried to change my screensaver configuration and the power management configuration, but i'm still with the same problem....    i don't know what to do.  i have an nvidia graphic card, i've already tried aigl
[08:56] <erad> belkin, xarchiver
[08:56] <mxli20> x and the nvidia beta drivers, but they don't work well
[08:56] <aloisio> all: hi, I need to remove gnome-netstatus-applet from session startup via shell. Anybody knows how to do this?
[08:56] <erad> mxli20, google and look on the ubuntu wiki - that's a common problem
[08:56] <grndslm> i've just been using gedit until now, do you guys have any suggestions for a graphical editor, maybe with code completion??
[08:56] <belkin> erad i try to open a archiver with it and i couldnt
[08:57] <erad> belkin, you need more packages - it's just a frontend
[08:57] <erad> belkin, what format archive?
[08:57] <belkin> rar
[08:57] <erad> belkin, sudo apt-get install unrar
[08:57] <jadacyrus> I'm runnin a dual display with nvidia, and I can't get my wallpapers to go on anything else but 'Tiled' mode. Even if I try switching it to Center or Zoomed, it still stays as tiled.?
[08:57] <mxli20> erad: ok. i'll do that, but i've already searched before
[08:57] <n2diy> mxli20: I think you are dealing with the kernel level screenblanker, and not the X one.
[08:57] <belkin> erad aight thanks
[08:58] <Kiamo> yo anyone know how to make windows read my linux drive?
[08:58] <heya0007> rev, when people say that windows is better then linux, i just smile nicely and say : "my computer is turned on for a month or more now, without reboot, without crashs, can you that with windows xp? are you sure?"
[08:58] <erad> Kiamo, depends, what filesystem?
[08:58] <Stormx2> Wow
[08:58] <Stormx2> I did a "sudo make modules" in my linux source
[08:58] <Stormx2> its taking years
[08:58] <erad> heya0007, um... yea, I can tell ya that
[08:58] <Kiamo> umm
[08:58] <Kiamo> im not sure...
[08:58] <Stormx2> been about 3 hours now...
[08:58] <Kiamo> just the default ubuntu filesystem
[08:58] <erad> heya0007, I can also tell ya that you're wasting a lot of electricity
[08:58] <mxli20> n2diy: and what does mean that. i'm noob.
[08:59] <pbureau> alex_,  did you check out xmms or amarok ?
[08:59] <erad> Kiamo, ext3 then - try ext2ifs and explore2fs
[08:59] <Kiamo> thanks erad
[08:59] <grndslm> i've just been using gedit until now, do you guys have any suggestions for a graphical editor, maybe with code completion??
[08:59] <erad> ext2ifs is a windows driver (doesn't do file permissions though). explore2fs is a generic program
[08:59] <heya0007> erad, not if u are downloading a large collection of movies and tv shows
[08:59] <erad> heya0007, and exactly how legal is that?
[08:59] <Stormx2> alex_: What do you want to do?
[08:59] <heya0007> not legal
[08:59] <erad> :-P
[09:00] <pbureau> lol
[09:00] <Stormx2> How do you know its not legal?
[09:00] <n2diy> mxli20: It means your settings in X won't effect it, it is built into the kernel.
[09:00] <heya0007> i dont care about legal, i am out law :-)
[09:00] <rev> Kiamo: if you're the energy police, i hope you're using an ARM or PowerPC laptop :)

[09:01] <pbureau> alex_,  the only app I know to organize music/edit is Madman
[09:01] <heya0007> ll
[09:01] <n2diy> mxli20: Not easily, you might want to google on kernel and screen blanking, maybe there is a simple fix?
[09:02] <ConstyXIV> patrick12790: how do you get said plugin?
[09:02] <Stormx2> alex_: Easytag. That can rename files from tags, or tags from files
[09:02] <Kiamo> yay i can access my files :)
[09:02] <Kiamo> thanks guys
[09:02] <patrick12790> I installed Bansheed with synaptic and it was already installed !
[09:03] <patrick12790> apt-get install banshee

[09:03] <Kiamo> also in the windows boot loader file, is this line ok? "multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\"Edgy Ubuntu" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect" ? it would be nice not to have to unplug my windows drive to access linux ;)
[09:03] <alex_> thing is easytag keeps giving me error messages saying it can't find matching albums
[09:03] <ConstyXIV> erad: i used that in kde, but this is gnome
[09:03] <erad> Kiamo, that will not work
[09:03] <JackHanna> hi guys, I was looking for a god beginners guide to setting up squid that covers sizing and tweaking. I remember seeing a good one before but now I need it and can't find it

[09:03] <erad> Kiamo, filesystem drivers are loaded *after* windows
[09:04] <Kiamo> sorry erad?
[09:04] <patrick12790> Look under Plugins ... Maybe you have to acitvate it !

[09:05] <Kiamo> ah
[09:05] <Kiamo> so i need to use a boot loader before windows even starts?
[09:05] <seanj> hello Ubuntu people
[09:05] <zoli2k> hi
[09:05] <erad> Kiamo, err, if you installed ubuntu, grub should have replaced ntldr
[09:05] <Kiamo> erad, i installed windows second
[09:06] <Kiamo> and im in it just now.
[09:06] <erad> Kiamo, ah - I recommending reinstalling grub
[09:06] <erad> you can make ntldr boot grub though (google for ntldr boot linux)
[09:06] <Kiamo> ok thanks

[09:07] <zoli2k> How can I dump sound from flash player?
[09:07] <JackHanna> basically I've looked around and not found a guide I like. Most of them are about downloading and installing squid. I'd like one that talks about using more than one disk drive, now much ram you need with X cache, and tweaking. I have a 10mbit connection for my library that I need a cache for. Right now we use a Bluecoat but it's going away.
[09:07] <mxli20> n2diy: thanks any ways
[09:07] <Kiamo> also, im noticing explore2fs isnt so nice, is there a way to enjoy at least read access of my linux drive?

[09:10] <Atomiku> Well, Ive got IP masquerading to two computers, I wanna see how much bw THEY are taking
[09:10] <Kiamo> gah yes, sorry im full of syntax errors hhehe
[09:10] <erad> Kiamo, well, there's no 64-bit driver :-(

[09:11] <n2diy> mxli20: I don't know? If your going to mess around there, back up your stuff.
[09:11] <datachild> how do i reconfigure my X?, since i've fucked up my keymap (English keymap instead of swedish)

[09:22] <itodd> after upgrading glibc, dbus is broken. anone know a fix?
[09:22] <adcurtin> @pbureau: install automatix ( getautomatix.com ) that will install the mp3 codecs for you
[09:22] <ardchoille42> Otacon22, top

[09:22] <LjL> !automatix | adcurtin, pbureau

[09:25] <ubotu> The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org
[09:26] <adcurtin> I installed feisty and it changed some setting in grub, grub no longer shows how much ram is in the system. Is there a way to undo this?
[09:26] <mrpurple> i'm getting an error wrong architecture i386
[09:26] <grndslm> mrpurple: what kinda computer are you installing to?
[09:26] <willys_fueguino> someone plays regnum online over here??
[09:26] <mrpurple> amd 64 3000
[09:26] <mrpurple> 1 gig ram
[09:26] <mrpurple> nvidia 6600 gt
[09:27] <Spasticteapot> mrpurple: i386 should be about right.
[09:27] <Spasticteapot> spasticteapot: You could try IA64.
[09:27] <grndslm> hmm....well, i dunno if skype exists for 64bit
[09:27] <Spasticteapot> Totally seperate issue, but does anyone know why MPEG audio won't work in Gxine?
[09:27] <Aspi> Would someone know how to send me a good link on setting up realplayer to work in firefox. I downloaded offical and set it to /usr/share/  but firefox somehow isnt configured in this process.
[09:27] <grndslm> mrpurple: did you install 32bit or 64bit OS?
[09:27] <mrpurple> but i don't think thuis ubuntu version is 64
[09:28] <Spasticteapot> I'm trying to watch an MPEG, and I get video and no sound.
[09:28] <mrpurple> it 'd 32
[09:28] <mrpurple> there is a way to see it ?
[09:28] <itodd> after upgrading libc6, dbus is brokena nd causes the computer to freeze up. how can i rollback to last version of libc6?
[09:28] <stormchaser> does ubuntu use mp3 format for music??
[09:29] <Spasticteapot> stormchaser: If you're ripping CDs, use FLAC or OGG.
[09:29] <Phylo> will # groot=(hd0, 2)  cause the third partition to boot by default?
[09:29] <Spasticteapot> FLAC is lossless, which is ideal.
[09:29] <grndslm> mrpurple:  then you just need to enable the right repositories in your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[09:29] <Phylo> (in the... menu.lst file)
[09:29] <grndslm> mrpurple:  then become root by typing sudo -s
[09:30] <mrpurple> where i go for type  that command ?
[09:30] <grndslm> mrpurple:  and then you can aptitude update && aptitude upgrade
[09:30] <stormchaser> Spastice...so no mp3,,
[09:30] <grndslm> the terminal....applications, accessories...
[09:30] <mrpurple> great
[09:31] <krang> Hey all, what's a good repo to add to get a bunch of extra packages? I'm trying to install zabbix on ubuntu-server, and it wants libsnmp5
[09:31] <grndslm> mrpurple:  there's graphical interface, but as long as you can type...it's better to learn the linux filesystem anyway
[09:31] <Stormx2> !+info libsnmp5
[09:31] <ubotu> Package libsnmp5 does not exist in any distro I know
[09:31] <krang> would linsnmp9 be fine if I just ignore the "unmet dependency"?
[09:31] <LjL> !zabbix-agent | krang, this?
[09:31] <ubotu> zabbix-agent: software for monitoring of your networks -- agent. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.1-6 (edgy), package size 101 kB, installed size 348 kB
[09:31] <LjL> !info libsnmp | krang, Stormx2
[09:31] <ubotu> Package libsnmp does not exist in any distro I know
[09:32] <LjL> agh it's libsnmp9
[09:32] <Stormx2> no
[09:32] <Stormx2> You need
[09:32] <Stormx2> libsnmp9
[09:32] <Stormx2> (I guess)
[09:32] <krang> LjL: yup, that's the one. Do I have to install edgy for this? I'd prefer to use 6.06
[09:33] <LjL> krang: you can possibly request a backport
[09:33] <LjL> Ubotu, tell krang about backports | krang, see the private message from Ubotu
[09:33] <Stormx2> krang: apt-cache search libsnmp - see which versions you have available.....
[09:33] <krang> Stormx2: it's generally safe to use things with higher version numbers thatn asked for, isn't it? I know it isn't always, but as a rule
[09:33] <Stormx2> Yeah
[09:33] <Stormx2> It is, the majority of the time
[09:33] <kcinna> hey guys, i cant get firefox to display an embedded tiff, whats going on?
[09:33] <mrpurple> grndslm: i did that command
[09:33] <grndslm> so mrpurple:  you open terminal...type sudo -s, enter password, then nano /etc/apt/sources.list and follow the commands at the bottom of the screen (i.e. - ctrl+x to save & quit)
[09:33] <mrpurple> so now i'm root
[09:33] <kiamo> how do i mount my ntfs drive?
[09:33] <erad> krang, higher minor versions maybe - if you use a higher major version number, you usually get incompatibility
[09:33] <Stormx2> !ntfs
[09:33] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions. For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:33] <kiamo> !ntfs-3g
[09:33] <ubotu> 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.

[09:37] <Stormx2> grndslm: auto-completion?
[09:37] <grndslm> code completion
[09:37] <kiamo> i cant install NTFS-3G because the drivers dont work on x64
[09:37] <finalbeta> !paste
[09:37] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:37] <krang> dammit, how do you tell aptitude to ignore unmet dependencies and install everything anyway?
[09:37] <Stormx2> kiamo:
[09:38] <Stormx2> Ack!
[09:38] <erad> kiamo, :-)
[09:38] <LjL> krang: you can't
[09:38] <krang> but still install everything that it can, obviously
[09:38] <Stormx2> kiamo: Ubuntu has native ntfs support, but its only read-only
[09:38] <grndslm> Stormx2:  i hear that vim or scintilla maybe has code completion...tho limited maybe
[09:38] <kiamo> and the windows drivers wont work in windows x64 either
[09:38] <LjL> krang: you can if you use dpkg directly, however next time you use aptitude (or apt-get, or...), the affected package will be removed
[09:38] <krang> LjL: oh, I suppose that's what apt-get does :-)
[09:38] <erad> kiamo, try captive with the x64 driver
[09:38] <LjL> krang: do give dpkg a try
[09:38] <LjL> krang: no
[09:38] <kiamo> yea but i need to copy data over to my windows drive
[09:38] <krang> LjL: why not? What'll it do?
[09:38] <kiamo> captive?
[09:38] <kiamo> !captive
[09:38] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[09:39] <Stormx2> kiamo: Maybe use a live cd with ntfs-3g on it?
[09:39] <bosanac> can i set a connect commands i means i set one but can i set more then 1 i need 2 connect command can somebody tell me pls ?
[09:39] <bosanac> i run linux ubuntu i forget that
[09:39] <LjL> krang: i meant - no, apt-get will behave just the same as aptitude.  you need dpkg directly
[09:39] <enix> when i log on ubuntu automatically mounts my windows partion
[09:39] <mrpurple> grndslm: i did it
[09:40] <enix> how do i get it to not do this
[09:40] <krang> LjL: curses. Does that resolve dependencies? I've always been horribly confused by it and thus stayed away
[09:40] <erad> enix, is that a problem?
[09:40] <Stormx2> How can I make ubuntu not check up on one of my partitions on boot? It takes forever cause its 80gb of discontiguous music files
[09:40] <enix> i dont want the icon
[09:40] <grndslm> mrpurple:  now type in:  aptitude update && aptitude upgrade
[09:40] <spinster> can i set a connect commands i means i set one but can i set more then 1 i need 2 connect command can somebody tell me pls ?
[09:40] <erad> enix, go to /etc/fstab , find the line with "ntfs" in it, and add "#" to the beginning
[09:40] <grndslm> mrpurple:  and then aptitude skype when it's done
[09:40] <LjL> krang: no, it doesn't resolve a thing. that's why you may want to try it: precisely because it will install the thing anyway *even if* the dependencies are not resolved
[09:40] <krang> LjL: can i put some sort of dummy package in place to shut up apt?
[09:40] <grndslm> you could put them altogether really... with the &&'s
[09:40] <LjL> Ubotu, tell enix about fstab | enix, see the private message from Ubotu
[09:40] <spinster> ppl can somebody help me ?
[09:40] <spinster> pls
[09:40] <spinster> i running xchat
[09:40] <spinster> can i set a connect commands i means i set one but can i set more then 1 i need 2 connect command can somebody tell me pls ?
[09:40] <kiamo> Stormx2, i have numberous other problems to, some of which im sure are related to x64, such as i cant install flash because its 32bit haha, and i cant get debootstrap to work, and its a whole lot of extra effort to compile things for 64bit (if they even do) also im having ati driver problems and they are installed correctly, so maybe tahts related to ati coding bad x64 drivers...
[09:40] <LjL> krang: we'll come to that later. try dpkg and see if the program installs and runs, first
[09:40] <enix> then if i do want if for some reason i can mount /media/...
[09:41] <kiamo> all in all, x64 sucks in my op ;)
[09:41] <mrpurple> but i save sources.list as now empty ?
[09:41] <Stormx2> spinster: Please make yourself clear. Is english your first language?
[09:41] <krang> LjL: I have to get 8 billion deps installed first. I guess I'll just use aptitude for that. Hang on.
[09:41] <erad> gah, the cds keep sticking - they refuse to unmount
[09:41] <LjL> krang, but aptitude will complain about dependencies missing!
[09:41] <LjL> libsnmp5 missing that is
[09:42] <Stormx2> kiamo: Hmm... Running 64 always seemed a bit silly to me, unless you have a special situation where you need it
[09:42] <grndslm> mrpurple:  no, you copy the sources.list file from here first ( http://pastebin.ca/328453 ) by highlighting the text and then paste it into the terminal with a middle click
[09:42] <spinster> stoneey_: look, i am on linux ubuntu and i running xchat, and i have setted 1 connect command that is /mode (nick) +x and i want to set another connect command can i set it ?
[09:42] <grndslm> and then save!
[09:42] <erad> how can I force a partition to unmount, ignoring "device is busy"?
[09:42] <LjL> krang, ok, look, we can skip this step and just try creating a dummy package
[09:42] <krang> LjL: yeah, I'm just going to install everything else it depends on manually, followed by dpkg for the final package
[09:42] <spinster> Stormx2: look, i am on linux ubuntu and i running xchat, and i have setted 1 connect command that is /mode (nick) +x and i want to set another connect command can i set it ?
[09:42] <Stormx2> spinster: Have you checked the documentation?
[09:42] <krang> LjL: is that a better option? Hell, I'll try it anyway, I'd like to know how
[09:43] <kiamo> Stormx2, it would be lovely to have x64 3dstudio max. but i dont realy feel like its worth having its own windows installation just for that haha
[09:43] <kiamo> well anyway
[09:43] <kiamo> ill be back in 3 or 4 hours I guess :( lol
[09:43] <Stormx2> kiamo: Well
[09:43] <LjL> krang: sudo apt-get install equivs
[09:43] <erad> how can I force a partition to unmount, ignoring "device is busy"?
[09:43] <Stormx2> kiamo: You can run ubuntu 32 bit on a 64 bit processer, ya know
[09:43] <Malachi> Uh.......

[09:43] <kiamo> yea

[09:43] <kiamo> but i feel like im wasting extra bits
[09:43] <xf> With IP tables...I do all of my ALLOWs first then lastly I should DROP everything, right?  If I *only* want to allow certain things and deny everything else
[09:44] <Malachi> I deleted my files.
[09:44] <Malachi> About 1/3 of my home folder....
[09:44] <Stormx2> spinster: http://www.xchat.org/faq/#q214
[09:44] <grndslm> Malachi:  then good riddens to your files
[09:44] <kiamo> the migration to 64 from 32 is the worst migration iv ever seen in the world of computing
[09:44] <Malachi> SHIFT+DELETED it.
[09:44] <LjL> krang: edit ~/libsnmp5.ctl and change it reasonably. uncomment "Depends:" and list libsnmp9 there
[09:44] <Malachi> grndslm: Any way I can get it back?
[09:44] <Malachi> grndslm: ANY possible means of recovery?
[09:44] <Stormx2> Malachi: Heh, oh dear...
[09:44] <Malachi> I'm about to cry.
[09:45] <Stormx2> Malachi: Hey hey hey
[09:45] <Stormx2> Malachi: Stop, wait a moment
[09:45] <grndslm> i'd say they're prolly gone, but i dunno about nautilus
[09:45] <erad> kiamo, yea, well, trying to explain why 64 is better to people fails - it's usually not really better

[09:45] <Stormx2> Malachi: Its recoverable. Okay? Now, check it didn't get sent to the trash, yeah?
[09:45] <Malachi> I'm trying to take my situation lightly, but my job is at stake.
[09:45] <krang> LjL: cheers. doing that now
[09:45] <LjL> krang: at that point, you should have a .deb package for libsnmp5 (a fake package, mind you) in your current directory. install it using dpkg
[09:45] <erad> prometoys, really?
[09:45] <Eroick> I have a windows and a Ubuntu computer. They are conncted with a a hub. Either one can recieive wireless network with my router. How can I share the wireless from the router between the two computer?
[09:45] <LjL> krang: then install zobbix using aptitude or apt-get
[09:45] <erad> I have the same one
[09:45] <sivik> does anyone here use a serial -> usb adaptor
[09:45] <LjL> krang: make sure you have libsnmp9 installed at any rate
[09:45] <Malachi> Stormx2: Not there.
[09:46] <krang> LjL: that bit's done
[09:46] <LjL> krang: oh, and instead of editing the .ctl file manually you can use the equivs-control program
[09:46] <Stormx2> Malachi: Okay.
[09:46] <Stormx2> Malachi: I'll explain this quickly, k?
[09:46] <Otter> Does anyone know if there is a way to make ubuntu support any routing protocols, like ospf or rip?
[09:46] <krang> LjL: libsnmp5 is available for straight-up debian, for some reason
[09:46] <Genesis> what value do I put in for   #default    x?
[09:46] <Eroick> as in, use ubuntu as a router,
[09:46] <Malachi> Stormx2: I'll tell you what happened. I was running out of HD space, so was going to delete a folder with about 100megs of stuff on it.
[09:46] <prometoys>  erad: it's a Pentium D. I had problems with knoppix too. somebody told me, it could be a 64bit problem
[09:46] <krang> LjL: would it be a bad idea to try using their .deb?
[09:46] <LjL> krang: you *might* try installing the debian package, but installing debian packages in Ubuntu can be dangerous
[09:46] <Otter> Eroick: correct, as in advertise a loppbakc interface through a routing protocol
[09:46] <Malachi> Stormx2: I couldn't; I didn't have the necessary permissions for something.
[09:47] <krang> LjL: curses. Dummy first then
[09:47] <Malachi> Stormx2: So I opened the folder through root.
[09:47] <LjL> krang: it wouldn't be a very good idea for sure. a better idea is to ask the backports team for a backport
[09:47] <Stormx2> Malachi: Filesystems are made up of an allocation table and the actual data. When you deleted the data, it removed its entry in the allocation table. The data is still there, but ubuntu thinks its free space, kay?
[09:47] <erad> Prometoy, have you tried with a 32-bit install CD?
[09:47] <Malachi> Stormx2: Mkay.
[09:47] <sivik> anyone here use serial -> usb adaptor to configure routers in linux
[09:47] <Eroick> Otter: how would I set it up?
[09:47] <krang> LjL: yeah, I'll do that.
[09:47] <prometoys> erad:_only with a 32bit cd
[09:47] <Stormx2> Malachi: You need to find an application which can recover that data. I'll help look.
[09:47] <Otter> Eriock: I am trying to figure that out myself.. sorry.. i think I got our two conversation confused. i thought you were answering my question
[09:47] <Malachi> Please.
[09:47] <Stormx2> Malachi: Think "ext3 data recovery" or something.
[09:48] <Malachi> Of course.
[09:48] <erad> prometoys: hmm...
[09:48] <Eroick> Otter: ok. tell me if you figure it out :)
[09:48] <Stormx2> Malachi: I've never actually done this before. So gimme a few. Don't panic basicly.
[09:48] <erad> Prometoys: does the alternate cd work?
[09:48] <prometoys> erad: no
[09:48] <Malachi> Stormx2: I'm trying not too.
[09:48] <Malachi> Stormx2: I've killed a guy, though.
[09:48] <erad> interesting
[09:48] <Stormx2> Malachi: o.O
[09:48] <Stormx2> Malachi: What?
[09:49] <Otter> Eroick: There is a linux distro called "zeb/zebra os" which runs routing protocols, but was trying to get it working Ubuntu
[09:49] <erad> prometoys - if you turn off ahci in bios, it'll make your sata controller act like a pata one - that should fix things temporarily
[09:49] <Malachi> Stormx2: Lightening my situation. Or attempting to.
[09:49] <Malachi> =\
[09:49] <Phylo> How can I make XP (first partition) be the default hard drive.  It says to change #default  x  in grub/menu.lst but to what value?
[09:49] <prometoys> erad: thanks, i will try it
[09:49] <mrpurple> grndslm:i saved that line in another file
[09:49] <prometoys> erad: have a nice day :)
[09:50] <briancann> what is used in kde for "gksudo" or is it the same??
[09:50] <erad> briancann, kdesu
[09:50] <enix> i added # in etc/fstab and it still mounts
[09:50] <erad> there's actually no gksudo, it's really a link to gksu
[09:51] <erad> enix, *sigh* - paste your /etc/fstab to pastebin.ca
[09:51] <erad> I'll show you what needs to be done
[09:51] <Stormx2> Oh damn
[09:51] <LjL> briancann: kdesu
[09:51] <enix> ok, just a sec
[09:51] <Stormx2> Malachi, I've got some bad news
[09:51] <Malachi> Stormx2: Go ahead.
[09:51] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Hey :D
[09:52] <briancann> LjL, thx mate
[09:52] <Malachi> Stormx2: Uh......hm.
[09:52] <Otter> I think I found a package that will let me run OSPF in Ubuntu: p   quagga                                                                 - unoff. successor of the Zebra BGP/OSPF/RIP routing daemon

[09:54] <kgalens> I've recently installed drivers for my wireless card (on a desktop) and (finally) got my card up and running.  Although, it doesn't seem to stay up for over about an hour.  Has anyone experienced something like this?
[09:54] <Malachi> Stormx2: Web sites, (html), Blender files, documents, pretty much everything in a folder starting with a-ma
[09:54] <hexidigital_> if you have one hard disk, do /home and /var etc, etc, expand dynamically?
[09:54] <scooter> i have 2
[09:55] <Slackwise> kgalens: Atheros based card?
[09:55] <Stormx2> hexidigital_, depends how you have it set up...
[09:55] <Ki-Chi-Mi> I have a network adapter PANWL2203, God knows what the make it is but it has a ZyDas chipset, i was trying to install the driver last night with no luck because it needed make, make isnt installed, i have no net so i couldnt install it, is there anyway i can install make without the use of the net?
[09:55] <xf> I have a machine with two NICs in it.  I want to *only* forward port 80 from one interface to the other interface.  I also want to disallow any other connections.  Do I have to first setup the rules to accept connections INPUT and OUPUT on both interfaces before forwarding and then denying everything else?
[09:55] <hexidigital_> Stormx2: is that a LVM setup or does that happen by default?
[09:55] <scooter> can anyone help me please
[09:55] <Malachi> storm2: mak walked off for a min to get his stuff before it gets locked up
[09:55] <Malachi> its red
[09:55] <kgalens> Slackwise: no, bcm4xxx chipset
[09:55] <hexidigital_> Stormx2: i'd hate to reinstall due to a filesystem screwup on my part
[09:56] <xf> I want to basically filter all http requests through this box
[09:56] <Phylo> I got that working, thank you for mentioning grub, to whomever it was
[09:56] <kgalens> Slackwise: manufactured by motorolla
[09:56] <Stormx2> hexidigital_: By default /home is just a folder, and hence will expand until your partition runs out of space
[09:56] <Slackwise> kgalens: Using ndiswrapper...?
[09:56] <Stormx2> hexidigital_: If you have a seperate partition for /home, then thats different
[09:56] <hexidigital_> Stormx2: ok, that's what i needed (the first statement) :) thanks
[09:57] <laserulo> hi i'm new to ubuntu and looking for help on updates
[09:57] <Phylo> Will someone help me get my wireless connection working?  Reading the wiki, etc... I got it to recognize the card and "successfully" connect, but FireFox can't load any pages still
[09:57] <Stormx2> laserulo: Fire away
[09:57] <Stormx2> Phylo: Ping your router, does it work?

[09:57] <zkorpio> hi some room for spanish ubuntu users?
[09:57] <boni_> one of my friends while installing ubuntu got a strange problem his boot loader wasnt installing but the problem apparent got fixed when he made a /tmp partition any reasons??
[09:57] <Phylo> "ping " plus IP?
[09:57] <kgalens> Slackwise: no actually.  I started to try that, but then I found a tutorial on an ubuntu forum actually (looking for the thread now) that used apt-get to install the driver
[09:57] <odnigmann> hi.. someone use the app airodump?
[09:57] <Malachi> Stormx2: Back.

[09:58] <Slackwise> kgalens: Ahh, well, broadcom isn't the most Linux friendly set of chips either way. :P
[09:59] <krang> LjL: sorry, so busy copying down instructions that I forgot to say thanks hugely for the help. Cheers!

[09:59] <erad> enix, it looks right, do this "sudo umount /dev/sda1 && sudo mount -a"
[10:00] <laserulo> the update xserver-xorg-core New version 1:1.0.2-0 ubuntu 10.5 looks like it will change the operating system ... is it safe to install it??? anyone??
[10:00] <erad> see if it remounts - if it doesn't, you're in the clear
[10:00] <boni_> one of my friends while installing ubuntu got a strange problem his boot loader wasnt installing but the problem apparent got fixed when he made a /tmp partition any reasons??
[10:00] <Phylo> I pinged and got "64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: "

[10:00] <erad> laserulo, X is not an operating system... try it
[10:00] <T-ROK> im back i backed up all of my files and tryed to install ubuntu but i cant
[10:00] <erad> Phylo, and...?
[10:00] <T-ROK> how am i supposed to do it
[10:00] <Phylo> it hasn't stopped
[10:00] <erad> Phylo, do you want to stop it? hit ctrl+c
[10:00] <enix> whats && sudo mount -a do
[10:00] <Stormx2> Ki-Chi-Mi: Do you have access to the internet on another os or computer?
[10:00] <erad> next time, use -c*number*
[10:00] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Yes i do
[10:01] <laserulo> ok ta erad ... just thought 'cos it had "core" in the name
[10:01] <erad> enix, && executes the following command if the previous one worked
[10:01] <sycho> How do I permanently add a dir to $PATH so I do not have to export it with each reboot? I want the whatever user is working that the dir  /home/<usr>/scripts is added so each person can have their own individual scripts that run from terminal.
[10:01] <LjL> krang: it worked?
[10:01] <enix> ok
[10:01] <erad> "sudo mount -a" tells mount to read fstab and mount everything enabled
[10:01] <Stormx2> Ki-Chi-Mi: What about a NIC card or anything like? Any kind of temporary internet connection to ubuntu would help
[10:01] <Phylo> Ok, stopped it, now it says 105 out of 116 packets received and 9% lost
[10:01] <enix> thanks 4 r help
[10:01] <T-ROK> can someone take me step by step how to install .... i have the 6.10 disc that i downloaded
[10:02] <Stormx2> !install | T-ROK
[10:02] <ubotu> T-ROK: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[10:02] <T-ROK> thank you
[10:02] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Nope, its on a laptop but the laptop doesnt have ethernet, ive been looking around for a ethernet card for a PCMCIA ethernet card for some time now but no luck
[10:03] <krang> LjL: nope, still compiling the ctl file. You can't leave anything blank
[10:03] <Ki-Chi-Mi> i have the drivers, just not make
[10:03] <Stormx2> T-ROK: You've got a cd? Stick it in your cd drive and reboot your computer
[10:03] <sycho> wow that came out really odd sounding. I want to add /home/<usr>/scripts to $PATH.
[10:03] <LjL> krang: oh. though you could for the stuff that's commented out. perhaps using equivs-control is easier anyway
[10:03] <laserulo> btw do you guys automatically accept any updates that you receive notification for??
[10:03] <mrpurple> i think that i got a problem ..

[10:03] <bfdhud> I have a dumb question, but I'm curious. What is the harm in installing KDE programs (Amarok, Ktorrent) on a gnome desktop?
[10:03] <Stormx2> sycho: I think there is a file called .bash-rc in your ~, something like that. Add it in there
[10:04] <Quarupt> Thats means my Ipod should be writable write?
[10:04] <krang> LjL: That's what I'm about to do. There weren't any comments in that template, so I assume changes have been made
[10:04] <Quarupt> right*?
[10:04] <mrpurple> because before i try to update the repositories from the guide
[10:04] <Ki-Chi-Mi> bfdhud: Not as far as i know
[10:04] <ardchoille42> bfdhud, no harm at all, kde apps will run fine in gnome
[10:04] <Stormx2> bfdhud: There is no harm
[10:04] <Ki-Chi-Mi> bfdhud: I had amarok and ktorrent running under gnome do you shoudl be ok
[10:04] <sycho> ardchoille42, I would like it to add for all users. so each user can run personal scripts from terminal
[10:04] <grndslm> mrpurple:  you have synaptic or the add/remove program open?
[10:04] <sycho> Stormx2, I tried, but it didn't work right. maybe I did it wrong.

[10:05] <bfdhud> Thanks guys, I knew they were just different environments, but I wasn't sure if they relied on packages that were specific to a certain env.
[10:05] <bfdhud> if that made sense

[10:06] <Stormx2> bfdhud: Not the entire environment, but qt apps rely on some qt packages
[10:06] <odnigmann> why a receive a small quantity of the IVs in AIRODUMP?

[10:06] <sycho> ardchoille42, Where would I add it for current users? right now I have been typing   export $PATH..... at every reboot
[10:06] <bfdhud> Stormx2: I guess that was what had me stumped

[10:07] <odnigmann> nobody use the app airodump for WIFI?
[10:07] <Stormx2> bfdhud: If you want to use kde (you choose at the login screen which to boot into) install kubuntu-desktop. Otherwise just grab your app from the repos and the dependancies will sort it all out.
[10:07] <pbureau> odnigmann,  whassup ?

[10:08] <bfdhud> Stormx2: I used KDE for a while, but I found Gnome easier to manage. But I was absolutely loving Amarok and wanted to know if it would kill my computer to install it
[10:08] <marw|n> I need some help conf'ing the /etc/network/interfaces - when i do 'ifconfig' i get eth0, lo, and sit0. I guess sit0 is wlan - but i'm not so good at this, so WHAT do i have to put in the /etc/network/interfaces?

[10:11] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:11] <Stormx2> T-ROK: Right, it can be a number of issues
[10:12] <T-ROK> can we talk privately so i dont get confused?
[10:12] <hiptadahop> Anyone in minnesota looking for a coding job.?
[10:12] <Stormx2> T-ROK: When you boot the CD, do you get a list of options like "Boot ubuntu" and "Check CD for defects"
[10:12] <T-ROK> to much talking
[10:12] <Stormx2> T-ROK, if you wan

[10:12] <hiptadahop> large company
[10:12] <T-ROK> ok how do we?
[10:12] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Ok, different question, does anyone know of a way to install make without apt-get?
[10:12] <Stormx2> T-ROK: Talk in PM
[10:13] <Flannel> Ki-Chi-Mi: why do you need to do that?
[10:13] <Stormx2> hiptadahop: Ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:13] <g333k_work> Hi if I installed my system in english and now I want to set it up to spanish, what do I have to do?
[10:13] <pbureau> odnigmann,  I am on windows drivers as well.. works ! not pretty but faster than windows ..lol not I use gnome-network manager for what good it does me, it dont work with WPA anywyays
[10:13] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Because i have drivers for a wireless card that require make to install
[10:14] <ubuntu_> hi, i think i there is a problem with my xorg that is causing my keyboard to act up, when im logging in to the comp on in another TTY server its fine, but when im acctually logged in i have to hold a key for about five seconds before it will type, im on a live cd now
[10:14] <threeonefour> can i run osx programs on ubuntu?
[10:14] <Flannel> Ki-Chi-Mi: right, you have a ubuntu CD, right? (desktop? or alternate?)
[10:14] <Azul> wut up
[10:14] <Stormx2> threeonefour: Depends, probably not.
[10:14] <ConstyXIV> threeonefour: short answer: no
[10:14] <Flannel> !xinerama | mrpurple
[10:14] <ubotu> mrpurple: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[10:14] <odnigmann> pbureau you use ap airodump?
[10:14] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Yes i do
[10:14] <Stormx2> YES! Kernel is compiled
[10:14] <Stormx2> LIRC here I come!
[10:14] <threeonefour>  i get an error when trying to print  "Paused: Job-Hold_Until-Specified"  what does that mean  i am just trying to print a test page
[10:15] <mrpurple> thank You
[10:15] <Flannel> Ki-Chi-Mi: alright, put it in, use apt-cdrom to add the cd to the repositories, then you can install build-essential from that repository
[10:15] <Genesis> ubuntu_ can you click things and run programs at a decent speed?
[10:15] <pbureau> odnigmann,  nope
[10:15] <sdac221x> to start Firestarter you need admin privilages.  How can I autostart Firestarter firewall on Xubuntu Edgy without having to type in the admin pass every time ?
[10:15] <odnigmann> pbureau i try test my wifi network .. and try learn who use the app airodump
[10:15] <g333k_work> Hi if I installed my system in english and now I want to set it up to spanish, what do I have to do?
[10:15] <grndslm> mrpurple:  twinview or xinerama will get dual monitors working
[10:15] <Flannel> sdac221x: firestarter is just a frontend, iptables (the actual firewall) runs all the time
[10:16] <ConstyXIV> threeonefour: long answer: anything using cocoa that's oss MIGHT recompile under gnustep.  carbon will not work at all, gtk and qt stuff runs on linux anyways
[10:16] <grndslm> i think twinview was what i wanted for mirroring, xinerama was better for spanning
[10:16] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Thanks, im trying it now :)
[10:16] <ubuntu_> Genesis: yes
[10:16] <Genesis> do you have a typical keyboard or do you have, say, a wireless one?
[10:16] <sdac221x> Flannel:  oh ok.  so any way to have front end start without admin privs?
[10:16] <grndslm> mrpurple:  google twinview and see if you can edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with nano
[10:16] <ubuntu_> nope, PS2 keyboard
[10:16] <T-ROK> Stormx2: Are You still in private?
[10:16] <baba-andrea> hi guys, there's way to install pptpconfig on ubuntu 6.10 64bit?
[10:16] <marw|n> When i conf /etc/network/interfaces : i need to do somethings to bring it up with iwup sit0
[10:17] <Stormx2> T-ROK: yes
[10:17] <Flannel> sdac221x: no, the frontend requires admin priveledges, since it allows people to make changes, etc
[10:17] <grndslm> mrpurple:  then hit ctrl+alt+backspace to restart the graphical interface
[10:17] <threeonefour> ConstyXIV, k thanx
[10:17] <Ki-Chi-Mi> flannel: Thank you very much :)
[10:17] <theflyingfool> is there any reason to use the 64bit version of ubuntu?
[10:17] <Flannel> sdac221x: why would you want firestarter to run without admin?
[10:17] <Genesis> ubuntu_:  also, is it a microsoft keyboard specifically?
[10:17] <Flannel> theflyingfool: regular reasons to use a 64bit OS
[10:17] <theflyingfool> Flannel, which would be?
[10:17] <ubuntu_> henesis: no
[10:18] <odnigmann> pbureau i can try broken WEP keys for keep my wifi network more strong and security
[10:18] <T-ROK> Stormx2: do i need to register for you to get my private messages?
[10:18] <odnigmann> pbureau but dont work rs..
[10:18] <sdac221x> sdac221x: well i just switched from using Sygate personel firewall on windows where im used to manually selecting yes or no to allow traffic.  So I thought it would be more secure if i have the firestarter front end auto-start(quickly without requiring password) so i can always see whats going on..
[10:19] <Stormx2> T-ROK: I think you might actually...

[10:19] <threeonefour> can anyone answer my printer question
[10:19] <Flannel> theflyingfool: um, well, some of them would include ability to use more than 4GB RAM
[10:19] <threeonefour>  i get an error when trying to print  "Paused: Job-Hold_Until-Specified"  what does that mean  i am just trying to print a test page
[10:19] <Genesis> T-ROK:  yes
[10:19] <Genesis> T-ROK:  (you have to)
[10:20] <T-ROK> ok
[10:20] <T-ROK> i think i registered it....
[10:20] <wilee85> how can I find what IP addresses have pinged me?
[10:20] <theflyingfool> Flannel, you can only use 4GB of ram on the standard version of ubuntu?
[10:20] <T-ROK> Stormx2: can you read it now?
[10:20] <Agrajag> theflyingfool: 320bit systems are only capable of addressing 4GB of RAM
[10:20] <Flannel> theflyingfool: 4GB of ram is a limitation of 32bit processors, on any OS
[10:20] <Agrajag> er, 32-bit
[10:21] <lupine_85> wilee85: unless you've been logging, you don't
[10:21] <agnostic> how can be added subtitles to a VCD
[10:21] <theflyingfool> does that include swap or just actual ram?
[10:21] <AmbientMstr> Ok, problem. Why do all my programs already start crashing in Linux? It's a fresh install and I just put a few updates on and it didn't ask me to restart. Is that the problem?
[10:21] <KalleJ> Can anyone help me get gallery2 working on a 6.10 server?
[10:21] <Agrajag> actual ram
[10:21] <Ki-Chi-Mi> ok, one more problem :( it wants the kernal sources, are these on the cd?
[10:21] <ubuntu_> genesis: no
[10:21] <Agrajag> I think you can have a larger virtual memory space
[10:22] <lupine_85> one can always do paging
[10:22] <Genesis> ubuntu_:  no what?
[10:22] <lupine_85> but it makes more sense to buy a 64-bit processor
[10:22] <ubuntu_> its not microsoft
[10:23] <Phylo> ubuntu_:  I know, I'm totally new to Ubuntu (since last night) so that's all I can really ask. X-D
[10:24] <ubuntu_> well what does it being miscosoft have to do with it
[10:24] <Phylo> I read in the help files somewhere that there is some kind of MS keyboard that does not work in ubuntu
[10:24] <seanj> I have a Microsoft Internet Keyboard that works fine with Ubuntu
[10:24] <ubuntu_> it just stopped working lastnight
[10:25] <wilee85> lupine_85, how do I do that? we're trying to determine my friend's external IP address...but he can't figure it out so I figured if he pinged me, i could see it
[10:25] <wilee85> rogue780, hi
[10:25] <Flannel> wilee85: tell him to go to http://whatismyip.com/
[10:25] <lupine_85> wilee85: if he traceroutes to your PC, the first public IP in the list will be his public IP
[10:25] <lupine_85> ....or use that, of course :)
[10:25] <Azul> !jahshaka
[10:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about jahshaka - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:25] <lupine_85> well. assuming his ISP don't proxy him (e.g. AOL)
[10:26] <Phylo> Can somone help me get my wireless connection working?  It's actually loading the pages, but it takes like 30s to a minute to load each one
[10:26] <inimesekene> how long is the support for 6.10 and how long for 6.06 ?
[10:26] <adamwest_> guys, how do i get to my processor info under ubuntu?
[10:26] <Phylo> (I'm on DSL, these pages normally load in 1 or 2 seconds)
[10:26] <Flannel> inimesekene: eighteen monhs and three years, respectively
[10:26] <inimesekene> so plenty of time
[10:26] <wilee85> Flannel, lupine_85 thanks
[10:26] <inimesekene> i hope
[10:27] <inimesekene> you know i would really appreciate it if ubuntu was just updated like gentoo is
[10:27] <inimesekene> constant smooth evolution
[10:27] <lupine_85> inimesekene: so use gentoo :)
[10:27] <lupine_85> or debian
[10:28] <Phylo> woohoo! nvm it's working
[10:28] <sdac221x> I have xubuntu edgy on laptop with INTEL-HDA soundcard.  Followed "comprehensive sound guide" & installed alsa drivers from source but i still have no sound.  any ideas?
[10:28] <inimesekene> these releases are scary
[10:28] <lupine_85> the whole point of ubuntu is the 6 month release cycle

[10:29] <threeonefour>  i get an error when trying to print  "Paused: Job-Hold_Until-Specified"  what does that mean  i am just trying to print a test page

[10:30] <worley_> Hello People!   I need some help with an hp 3650 printer.  It only likes to print in blue (all blue).
[10:30] <Bobbix> I need help for WPA2 (wpa_supplicant configured but don't work)
[10:30] <g333k_work> when I do #dpkg-reconfigure locales it doesnt ask me to choose languages, why?
[10:31] <mtdoo> i'm installing ubuntu.. i'm on step 5 of 6. i choose 2 gb partition for swap and 32 gb for "/" but i keep getting an error message "no root file system".. any ideas?
[10:31] <AmbientMstr> Anyone got ideas about how to go about syncing my Zune on Ubuntu?
[10:32] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: Did you put swap before root?
[10:32] <Ki-Chi-Mi> Thanks for your help im  not compiling the drivers as i speak
[10:32] <mtdoo> Amallya yes
[10:32] <sdac221x> somewhat related question then... if you have alsa drivers installed then does that mean the command alsaconf should work.  because alsaconf command is not found my xubuntu edgy
[10:32] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr yess
[10:33] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr i switched it but still the same message
[10:33] <Bobbix> uffa
[10:33] <worley_> I need some help with an hp 3650 printer.  It only likes to print in blue (all blue).
[10:33] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr should i format the partitions first???
[10:33] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr i'm trying to install windows xp and ubuntu
[10:33] <cute_bettong> can someone tell me the command to ask ubuntu whether it's a i386 or a 64bit version?
[10:33] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: Hmm..I just installed last night. I had a similar problem. How many partitions do you have? Are you trying to dual boot?
[10:33] <Spasticteapot> Can anyone reccomend a good P2P filesharing program for Linux?
[10:33] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: Ah, me too. The problem I ran into was that my ntfs partition (Windows) could not be resized. So I had to reformat everything after backing it up
[10:33] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr i have 4 partitions.. 1 = xp, 2 = xp, 3 = swap, 4 = /
[10:33] <Flannel> cute_bettong: uname -a
[10:33] <Ki-Chi-Mi> i dont know, if you know the command should be there then maybe a symlink wasnt created
[10:33] <Spasticteapot> I'm actually trying to download something legal.
[10:33] <AmbientMstr> Spasticteapot: Frostwire.
[10:34] <cowbud> any idea why pulse audio doesn't have an entry on launchpad?
[10:34] <cute_bettong> Spasticteapot, frostwire XD
[10:34] <adamwest_> guys where can i find my computer processor info?
[10:34] <Bobbix> I need help for wpa2
[10:34] <AmbientMstr> cute_bettong: Hells yeah
[10:34] <Spasticteapot> (I figure that if I pay for BBC America, I'm entitled to watch Doctor Who.)
[10:34] <Spasticteapot> Of course, of the five VCRs we own, none of them work.
[10:34] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr but why would it need to resize partitions used by windows ?
[10:34] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: Why do you have 2 XP partitions? Are they for specialized activity? (ie gaming?
[10:34] <Spasticteapot> Frostwire won't work - I think I have the wrong version of Java.
[10:34] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: Well, you can only have 4 primary partitions too.
[10:34] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr no.. just for different used
[10:34] <threeonefour>  i get an error when trying to print  "Paused: Job-Hold_Until-Specified"  what does that mean  i am just trying to print a test page
[10:35] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr i don't want to reformat anything.. already got my windows xp instances installed
[10:35] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: You might need to rid yourself of one. Installing Ubuntu generally takes 2 new partitions, and the max you can have is 4.
[10:35] <agnostic> THANKS FOR NOTHING :(
[10:35] <worley_> I need some help with an hp 3650 printer.  It only likes to print in blue (all blue).
[10:35] <Bobbix> sigh
[10:35] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr well i have 4
[10:35] <cute_bettong> Flannel, this is not the 64bit is it? Linux kenny-laptop 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Fri Oct 13 18:45:35 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[10:35] <g333k_work> Hi, when I do #dpkg-reconfigure locales it doesnt ask me to choose languages, why? I just receive a message "Generation complete."
[10:35] <Bobbix> no help for me
[10:35] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr so this should not be a problem
[10:35] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: Okay. Hmm
[10:35] <Mr_Congeniality> Anybody in here tested PCLiinuxOS?
[10:35] <deg0nz> HI all!!!
[10:36] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr i'm just thinking the 'no root file system' is vague
[10:36] <sdac221x> Mr_Congeniality:  yes tried it
[10:36] <Mr_Congeniality> any good?
[10:36] <AmbientMstr> mtdoo: Did you make the swap tag 'linux swap' and the root partition ext3?
[10:36] <pbureau> threeonefour,  what kind of printer and how is it connected to your system (usb or network)
[10:36] <worley_> USB HP 3650
[10:36] <sdac221x> yes.  used really good out of the box specially multimedia.
[10:36] <Spasticteapot> AbientMstr: Do you know how to set Ubuntu to use Sun's version of Java?
[10:36] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr where would i do that??
[10:37] <Mr_Congeniality> I'm downloading it now, it comes with Beryl and Compiz, which I can't get to work on this computer
[10:37] <sdac221x> Mr_Congeniality:  has liveCD version that you can give a try
[10:37] <AmbientMstr> AmbientMstr: Afraid not.
[10:37] <AmbientMstr> AmbientMstr: I'm still a noob to this too, I'm just here to help people install.
[10:37] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr step 5 has 2 sub-steps before step 6
[10:37] <AmbientMstr> Ok
[10:37] <Flannel> cute_bettong: correct, you're 32bit.  You installed from the 386 CD
[10:37] <Spasticteapot> I installed it, but it won't seem to show up - I've tried instructions I found with no success.
[10:38] <Mr_Congeniality> Is the livecd have the system install on it too?
[10:38] <mtdoo> AmbientMstr the first step in step 5 doesn't let me do anything.. it just shows the filesystem type as unknown
[10:38] <pbureau> worley_,  I dont know how to make a printer only print in BLUE

[10:38] <sdac221x> Mr_Congeniality:  not sure what Beryl and Compiz are.  make sure you get the BigDaddy version that has ALL the software installed.
[10:38] <AmbientMstr> Try that link, mtdoo
[10:38] <Marupa> Ok, I've tried both an unencrypted and an encrypted DVD under linux, and both under VMware XP Pro.  Both work fine on VLC under VMWare, and the unencrypted works fine under VLC under linux, but the encrypted DVD crashes VLC under linux, I have the required libraries installed, but it's not helping.
[10:38] <worley_> No My print will only print blue

[10:38] <Mr_Congeniality> Is the BigDaddy versoin a 3rd party version?
[10:39] <tayuya> nobody speak french ?
[10:39] <cute_bettong> Flannel, so thats just going to make it run in 32 bit correct?
[10:39] <jaka>  nope
[10:39] <cute_bettong> so no harm?
[10:39] <pbureau> worley_,  what app you using to print to it
[10:39] <pbureau> tayuya,  check #ubuntu-fr
[10:39] <AmbientMstr> worley_: I have the same problem with my printer spewing the wrong ink. It's not a problem with the drivers I think.

[10:51] <Spasticteapot> Does anyone know where GUILE would be installed to?
[10:51] <Stormx2> wilee85: I've made a homebrew receiver. Uses soundcard input... not alsa. I've compiled LIRC. Now what? I can't find any instructions
[10:51] <farruinn> Spasticteapot: dpkg -L <package> shows where things from <package> are installed
[10:51] <wilee85> Stormx2, are you making a mythbox out of curiosity?
[10:51] <Stormx2> wilee85: No
[10:52] <Stormx2> wilee85: In the near future I may do, but not yet. No video card, see?
[10:52] <kane77> how do I connect my cellphone with bluetooth? it wants a password (in windows it asked me to enter the same password on computer and on the cell phone... now ubuntu doesnt ask... but it wont connect

[10:52] <wolfwalker> I'm having trouble booting from a live cd. It used to work :( The details are here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2906/
[10:52] <Stormx2> wilee85: You've got to be kidding.....
[10:53] <wolfwalker> |Flannel:| I did ask, repeatedly.
[10:53] <wilee85> Stormx2, I was able to get my homebrew serial receiver working by following these instructions
[10:53] <farruinn> wolfwalker: sometimes you need to give people a bit of info first before they're willing to read your pastebin

[10:53] <inimesekene> is flash 9 in the repos already?
[10:53] <wolfwalker> Well I was trying to boot from the live cd. I think Ubuntu needs some swap space since I have only 265meg ram
[10:53] <gecko> also, if i install AIM for LInux v1.5  where does it install it too?
[10:53] <gecko> to*
[10:53] <Flannel> inimesekene: yes, the -backports repositories
[10:54] <inimesekene> Flannel, ok thanks
[10:54] <Spasticteapot> wolfwalker: Linux is a RAM-hungry OS.
[10:54] <wolfwalker> But it seems to have trouble making said swap space
[10:54] <Spasticteapot> Use XFCE if you have 256mb or less of RAM.
[10:54] <Spasticteapot> Technically, it's just the GUI that's ram-hungry.
[10:54] <Stormx2> wilee85: Hmm... not sure yet
[10:54] <wolfwalker> !XFCE
[10:54] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels

[10:54] <pbureau> threeonefour,  I havent forgotten about you... checking things out.. what app you used to configure it on you box ?
[10:54] <hydroxC> wolfwalker, I'm on 256mb, 700mhz, running gnome and it works FINE
[10:54] <cypher007> can anyone help me with a dynamic port forwarding issue
[10:55] <hexxa> hexxa@hexxa-laptop:~$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[10:55] <hexxa> FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid argument
[10:55] <hexxa> anny here knows?
[10:55] <wilee85> wolfwalker, you might be able to get xubuntu working with only 256...but it will be sluggish. if you replace xfce with something super light weight like fluxbox or openbox then it will work
[10:55] <wolfwalker> Well the live cd used to boot, but then I filled up my hard drive and it didn't have any space to write as swap
[10:55] <threeonefour> pbureau, what u mean what app  i just use cups
[10:55] <wolfwalker> I deleted and defragged, but still no go
[10:55] <adamonline45> How can I execute something on the desktop if I don't have a mouse?
[10:55] <wilee85> wolfwalker, my advice is to have 1024mb ram, although 512 will *work*
[10:55] <wolfwalker> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2906/
[10:55] <wolfwalker> But it DID work
[10:55] <wolfwalker> It just won't now
[10:55] <hydroxC> wilee85, What's he trying to do ?
[10:55] <wilee85> wolfwalker, you need a bigger hard drive then...
[10:55] <nweaver916> wolfwalker: the liveCD does not just make swap space on your drive, unless there is a swap partition (which you cannot fill)
[10:55] <joefreire> help me i go in nvidia-settings and this error parent
[10:56] <wolfwalker> It's not the cd, I tried the cd on another computer and it worked fine
[10:56] <wilee85> hydroxC, run ubuntu
[10:56] <pbureau> open a browser and type this... check "printers" (web interface for cups) - http://localhost:631/

[10:56] <hydroxC> wilee85, Dude, i'm running it with 256mb/ram
[10:56] <Xtreem> does anyone know how to stop users being able to LS on /home, but still access their own home folder
[10:56] <wolfwalker> What if I resized the Windows partition to half the hard drive? Would Linux be able to use the other half to mount?
[10:56] <joefreire> somebody know help me
[10:57] <wilee85> hydroxC, I tried to get my mythbox running with 256...mouse was jerky... ram was 100% full...so I went to xubuntu
[10:57] <unknown_host_> joefreire, with?
[10:57] <dope> when i talk to my friend through skype he said he can hear any sounds i have playing on my computer
[10:57] <adamonline45> dope: is he hearing them through the mic?
[10:57] <IntuitiveNipple> Does anyone know how I can generate a stack-trace while the kernel is starting so I can see the function calls leading to the current location, and have it reported in the boot log using printk() ?
[10:57] <dope> no
[10:57] <joefreire> unknown_host_,  i enter in nvidia-settings and this error
[10:57] <hydroxC> wilee85, Must of been a dodgey setup, you can tell this is a VERY dated celeron based computer, but it is quite definitly usable with 256mb/ram
[10:57] <dope> i have headphones
[10:57] <wolfwalker> |dope:| sounds like a sound card setting. Go in and turn off stereo mix
[10:57] <wilee85> hydroxC, besides, he wants to run it off the live cd...needs more space for the ramdisk
[10:57] <joefreire> unknown_host_, ERROR: NV-CONTROL extension not found on this Display.
[10:58] <adamonline45> dope: Okay, thought I'd ask... ;)
[10:58] <Marupa> Hey, got a question....when I'm playing music in amarok, I can't hear any other audio...What could be causing this and how do I fix it/
[10:58] <wolfwalker> What if I resized the Windows partition to half the hard drive? Would Linux be able to use the other half to mount?

[10:58] <wilee85> hydroxC, ask him, not me
[10:58] <unknown_host_> joefreire, err... hmm, don't repeat

[10:58] <hydroxC> wilee85, Alreet, he just seemed preoccupied :P
[10:58] <Marupa> isn't the rule of thumb 2xRAM = swap?
[10:58] <wolfwalker> |farruinn:| That's what I intend to install Linux to. But in the meantime, will it be accessible for the purpose of running the live CD?
[10:59] <dope> where's the setting!@?$
[10:59] <SzArAk> Marupa: no
[10:59] <adamonline45> Marupa: Personally, if I had little RAM, that's when I'd add MORE swap ;)
[10:59] <joefreire> unknown_host_,  and my Open GL no is funcional
[10:59] <SzArAk> Marupa: not any more.
[10:59] <ardchoille42> Marupa, I don't think 4Gb swap is going to help moire than 2Gb swap.
[10:59] <Marupa> that's what I was always told.
[10:59] <wilee85> Marupa, I always make swap = ram
[10:59] <wiking> how to change root password?
[10:59] <pbureau> Marupa,  I dunno I always give 5GB for swap :)
[10:59] <unknown_host_> joefreire, ask someone else please :-\
[10:59] <Xenguy> !root
[10:59] <pike_> in the old days these days ram==swap is plenty
[10:59] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:59] <unknown_host_> wiking, sudo passwd root - try see !rootsudo
[10:59] <SzArAk> wiking: passwd as root user
[10:59] <Marupa> what was that audio program...or whatever...dmix?
[11:00] <ardchoille42> wiking, You shouldn't have a root password. Did you enable the root account?
[11:00] <Marupa> alsa is hogging my card.
[11:00] <kane77> how do I connect my cellphone with bluetooth? it wants a password (in windows it asked me to enter the same password on computer and on the cell phone... now ubuntu doesnt ask... but it wont connect) what do I do????

[11:00] <T-ROK> hey i finaly got ubuntu to work but how do i acess my files i have on windows

[11:01] <nysosym> why discover ubuntu periodic 255.255.255.255:67?
[11:01] <Draconicus> Can somebody explain to me how OEM install works?
[11:01] <kane77> neil__, thanx
[11:01] <Marupa> wolfwalker, Should I use dmix instead of alsa then?
[11:02] <neil__> Marupa: dmix is a feature of ALSA
[11:02] <wolfwalker> |Marupa:| I'm a complete newbie. All I know is, some audio programs hog the soundcard
[11:02] <Marupa> !dmix
[11:02] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[11:02] <dope> i can't find the sound setting omg stero mix
[11:02] <wilee85> is there a way to limit the bandwidth for apache? so someone downloading from me can only download at, say, 50kbps?
[11:02] <wolfwalker> |dope:| look around for something similar. All sound cards will have different options.
[11:02] <T-ROK> i dont understand how to mount can someone go private and show me
[11:03] <Draconicus> Nevermind. Looked it up.
[11:03] <dope> there's not many options
[11:03] <wolfwalker> |farruinn:| ?
[11:03] <wolfwalker> |dope:| what options are in sound card settings?
[11:03] <threeonefour> pbureau, when you done specify my name i cant read what u say ok
[11:04] <tim167> ubuntu hangs at 'waiting for root file system', is my HD broken ??
[11:04] <pbureau> threeonefour,  open a browser and type this... check "printers" (web interface for cups) - http://localhost:631/
[11:04] <dope> full duplex, custom sample rate, quality, override device location, other custom options
[11:04] <wolfwalker> Okay, I'll ask anyone who will answer. If I resize my WIndows partition, will Ubuntu be able to use the freed up space to help it run from the live CD?
[11:04] <erUSUL> tim167: take a look from a livecd to check it out
[11:04] <farruinn> wolfwalker: I've googled your error message, haven't found anythign useful yet
[11:04] <wolfwalker> Ahhh, thanks. I was beginning to wonder
[11:04] <neil__> wolfwalker: don't think so. livecd runs in ram
[11:05] <tim167> erUSUL: which live cd do you recommend ?
[11:05] <wolfwalker> |neil__:| Not if you have very little ram

[11:05] <wilee85> is there a way to limit the bandwidth for apache? so someone downloading from me can only download at, say, 50kbps?
[11:05] <erUSUL> tim167: you probably already have the ubuntu one if not try knoppix
[11:05] <neil__> wolfwalker: livecds aren't a good substitute for a proper install
[11:05] <grimboy> Kiamo, Hello
[11:06] <tim167> erUSUL: I don't have empty CDR's around...something I can boot off a usb stick maybe ?
[11:06] <wilee85> T-ROK, mount, or boot to windows?

[11:06] <mgenov> hi, anyone familiar with installing php-cli and mysql library on ubuntu ?
[11:06] <pbureau> threeonefour,  I would delete that printer from the screen you see and start again and add one and folloow the prompts this method worked for me
[11:06] <wolfwalker> |tim167:| Maybe DSL?
[11:06] <mgenov> i have already installed php-cli but mysql library cannot be found
[11:06] <threeonefour> pbureau, i will try it  thx

[11:14] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[11:14] <MMC> ok thank u: )
[11:14] <unknown_host_> emo, there
[11:14] <ardchoille42> emo, you will have to update to Dapper, then update to Edgy.
[11:14] <theflyingfool> has anyone gotten wine-doors running?
[11:14] <TimothyP> anybody on the keyboard change from qwerty to azerty?
[11:14] <unknown_host_> emo, but if you're on breezy, you'll probably want to do a clean install
[11:14] <unknown_host_> hell, no matter what, you'll probably want a clean install if you don't like fixing stuff
[11:15] <MMC> who is betetr ubuntu or kubuntu?
[11:15] <unknown_host_> MMC, they're different
[11:15] <unknown_host_> neither is better
[11:15] <ardchoille42> emo,  A clean install will probably be a lot faster and with less headaches.
[11:15] <wolfwalker> farr Thanks for the alternate cd tip, I'm bit torrenting it now
[11:15] <wolfwalker> |farruinn:| Thanks for the alternate cd tip, I'm bit torrenting it now
[11:15] <gecko> MMC: do u have kubuntu KDE or Ubuntu GNOME?

[11:15] <ubotu> MMC: 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.
[11:15] <pbureau> threeonefour,  does it work now ?
[11:15] <emo> ardchoille42:how can I do that then?
[11:15] <Shinylemon> So yeah, i think it said I/O buffer error on port/device 2
[11:15] <emo> ardchoille42:everythig again :( ?
[11:15] <Shinylemon> Which is my DVD drive
[11:15] <Shinylemon> right?
[11:15] <MMC> Ubuntu
[11:16] <wolfwalker> |MMC:| In my humble opinion, Ubuntu is better than Kubuntu. Kub feels like a hasty graphic overlay of Ubuntu.
[11:16] <wolfwalker> |MMC:| Mind you, this is only one man's opinion.
[11:16] <unknown_host_> Shinylemon, probably? if the CD can get to the menu, choose "check for defects"
[11:16] <adamonline45> What is extended filesystem?
[11:16] <emo> ardchoille42:donwload and burn a cd ? but how about my data ?
[11:16] <Shinylemon> Already done that
[11:16] <Shinylemon> didnt find anything
[11:16] <MMC> ok .....
[11:16] <ardchoille42> emo, Backup all your $HOME stuff, then install Edgy from the ISO.. that's if you don't mind a fresh install. I never upgrade, because it has caused problems for me, I instlal new version from the ISO.
[11:17] <rebz> is there a way to get apt to stop trying to install a package
[11:17] <daxxar> Hi! md seems to think my box has heavy I/O when it has none, and therefore reduces build-speed to /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_min. Anyone ever experience something similar?
[11:17] <sivik> rebz, what do you mean stop installing it
[11:17] <MMC> #ubuntu-es
[11:17] <emo> ardchoille42:I got dual boot man ?
[11:17] <MMC> ahaha i ened a command for go to room
[11:17] <ardchoille42> emo, Be advised that Dapper is supported for 3 years on the desktop. I'm still on Dapper and probably won't even use Edgy.
[11:17] <wilee85> !grub
[11:17] <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
[11:17] <daxxar> Box is idle, and cat /proc/mdstat shows it going at almost exactly 1000K. I echo 5000 to /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_min, and /proc/mdstat displays a similar increase.
[11:17] <adamonline45> rebz: I have the same issue, but different:  Every time I apt-get something, it tries to uninstall something that won't uninstall :)

[11:19] <tim167> for a moment I was panic-ing there, now it continues to boot normally, what might have been the problem ? (ubuntu hung on startup, at 'waiting for root file system' 4 times in a row...)
[11:19] <Flannel> Shinylemon: did the defect check return success?

[11:20] <rance> I have a question about dhcpd.  I'm trying to configure dhcpd with ddns to work with bind9  I finished getting bind9 setup now Im making changed to /etc/dhcpd.conf, but no matter what change I make, NONE of the DDNS directives seem to be recognized and the dhcp server refuses to start saying that there are are errors in the config file, but as near as I can tell there are no errors in the file, just unrecognized options, is this a ubuntu deal?
[11:20] <gecko> i give up..later guys
[11:20] <lawine> raecchi: I just used Scim with chinese. worked fine
[11:20] <Flannel> Shinylemon: try a different CDrom drive
[11:20] <goodgerster> good evening, life forms
[11:20] <Shinylemon> Flannel: Don't have one.
[11:20] <Shinylemon> =(
[11:20] <Shinylemon> Well, i DID
[11:21] <Shinylemon> howeve ri dunno where it went
[11:21] <Shinylemon> spent all morning looking for it
[11:21] <lawine> Shinylemon: then form one! :)
[11:21] <Shinylemon> because i thought that might be the problem
[11:21] <Shinylemon> >.>
[11:21] <adamonline45> rance: I had a similar issue once, dhcpd would't read its conf file.  You can say 'dhcpd-server -h' or something and find out how to specify the path of your configuration file.  My conf file was in the wrong place, it had to move to its ../
[11:21] <raecchi> lawine, Okie, thanks :) I think it's something I'm doing with the gnome session manager... I don't use session managers often, and I never use gnome, so I'm sure I've screwed something up ^^
[11:21] <Shinylemon> How did i form cd drive lol
[11:21] <Shinylemon> XD
[11:22] <goodgerster> anyone not being served?
[11:22] <theflyingfool> is it possible to change, the systems default font color
[11:22] <denardo> I'm trying to edit some Lilypond files under Edgy. Unfortunately, emacs, which has good lilypond support seems to be trying to display things in some sort of alternate character set. I tried installing an emacs-shortcut-gtk and also jEdit, but each dumps core. Any clues?
[11:22] <lawine> Shinylemon: nm, i should read better, i thought you were referring to this 'life' thing :)
[11:22] <Stormx2> Anyone here use LIRC?
[11:22] <goodgerster> theflyingfool: which colour? text, GTK widgets?
[11:23] <theflyingfool> goodgerster, font, for the menus
[11:23] <theflyingfool> goodgerster, text i guess
[11:23] <darko> hello
[11:23] <goodgerster> theflyingfool: the system-wide default text font...
[11:23] <goodgerster> hmm
[11:23] <rance> adamonline45:  im not sure thats an issue as /var/log/syslog shows very specific errors to my changes, and goes back to normal when I take my changes out, it was ok with authoritative and the subnet and range options, but just as soon as I had to add ddns stuff it started to break
[11:23] <Shinylemon> HMmmmmm
[11:23] <goodgerster> locate the file in your home directory in which that setting is stored, then substitute ~ for /usr/share and change it there
[11:23] <Shinylemon> Im off to look for a CD drive
[11:23] <Shinylemon> brb
[11:24] <lawine> raecchi: allrighty. perhaps you can try the failsafe gnome session in GDM

[11:24] <denardo> Is there a way to just use the terminal-based emacs rather than the X11-based one?
[11:25] <goodgerster> denardo: type "emacs" into the terminal, I suspect... or GIYF
[11:25] <pike_> denardo: emacs --terminalratherthanx11one
[11:25] <Agrajag> emacs -nw
[11:25] <denardo> Thanks. (What does GIYF means?)
[11:25] <goodgerster> theflyingfool: something ending in .conf most likely, and in ~/.gnome2 methinks
[11:25] <goodgerster> denardo: Google Is Your Friend
[11:26] <theflyingfool> goodgerster, thanks for ideas

[11:28] <TreMobyl> will ubuntu automatically detect RAID 1 setups?
[11:28] <adamonline45> ashleyh: you can try "sudo ifdown eth0" and then "sudo ifup eth0"
[11:28] <goodgerster> shArk: I'm afraid that means you've written a hard disk number wrongly in your grub config. I can only suggest that you make intelligent guesses about what to put

[11:38] <ardchoille42> goodgerster, Are those extra packages (on the DVD) also in the repos?
[11:39] <goodgerster> Kiamo: no, it installs all packages on the disc. the dvd is a waste of time, since nobody ever uses all of the software. download the CD and then install the remainder from the repositories (yes, they are, ardchoille42, and many more besides)
[11:39] <Kiamo> ok thanks goodgerster
[11:39] <ardchoille42> goodgerster, Ah, ok, yeah.. I can see how the DVD would be a waste of time for a box that has an internet connection.

[11:44] <LjL> ashleyh: if eth0 is there, and you have only one network card, it means it's recognized, just not configured properly
[11:44] <pipak> LjL: " sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/hda" gives "HDIO_SET_DMA failed"
[11:44] <scott_> tamacracka, Yes, you can.  You can do almost everything you can do in Windows and than some.
[11:44] <LjL> otherwise it's probably not recognized
[11:44] <ashleyh> I can't see anything that says eth0
[11:44] <LjL> pipak: and i suppose hdparm -i says it's not enabled already?
[11:45] <MMC> ....linux have service but what is name of folder......whereare that..?
[11:45] <scott_> tamacracka, You can also listen to streaming radio using Streamtuner.
[11:45] <amigrave> is there a sqlite2 ruby binding package in ubuntu ? can't find it
[11:45] <fnord123> hi all. I tried to dist-upgrade to edgy last night and it all went to hell. my machine can't even mount the file system,
[11:45] <LjL> ashleyh: then try typing "sudo ifup eth0"
[11:45] <LjL> ashleyh: tell me what it says
[11:45] <goodgerster> MMC: what service?!
[11:45] <LjL> MMC: i don't get you
[11:45] <ashleyh> I have tried tha LjL
[11:45] <tamacracka> scott
[11:45] <ashleyh> ill type into the pastebin what I get
[11:45] <MMC> :_( forget it....
[11:45] <scott_> Problem:  I see a constant 6kbps recieved stream in gnome-system-monitor.  When leaving the system on for a long time this adds up to A LOT OF  recieved traffic.  Is it local network traffic?  Im on a wireless network.  It happens even after a fresh restart with no applications running whatsoever.
[11:45] <tamacracka> is there a specific program i can download an dinstall?
[11:46] <LjL> ashleyh: wait, while you're there
[11:46] <Aurvandill> Sorry, but what was the Beryl channel called again?
[11:46] <LjL> ashleyh: pastebin the output of 1) ifconfig 2) sudo ifup eth0 3) sudo ifconfig eth0 up 4) cat /etc/network/interfaces
[11:46] <Aurvandill> !beryl
[11:46] <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
[11:46] <ashleyh> Ok, thanks :)
[11:46] <Aurvandill> :)
[11:46] <ashleyh> Might take a while, typing e.c.t.
[11:47] <scott_> tamacracka, You mentioned Firefox in your original question, so Im going to assume you view live TV using your web browser.  Firefox is fully functional in Ubuntu just as it is in Windows - although you may want to do some searching on geting Flash/Java integrated with it.
[11:47] <fnord123> so I thought, ok I'll just wipe my machine and start anew... so I have a feisty fawn herd 2 disc (i dont want to deal with going from edgy->fawn after this experience). but it can't seem to create the partitions it needs to...
[11:47] <pipak> LjL: from what hdparm tells me "using_dma    =  0 (off)". The system is horribly slow and jerky when using the disk
[11:47] <fnord123> "The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of IDE1 master (hda) failed
[11:47] <tamacracka> :\
[11:47] <unknown_host_> fnord123, pwn3d?
[11:48] <tamacracka> I don't think you understand my question
[11:48] <fnord123> unknown_host_: dont say that!!
[11:48] <scott_> tamacracka, Clarify for me?
[11:48] <tamacracka> i want to be able to click on 1000 different channels
[11:48] <tamacracka> like TVU has
[11:48] <unknown_host_> :-P
[11:48] <janusz> mwi kto tu po polsku?
[11:48] <tamacracka> and watch TV from all around the world
[11:48] <unknown_host_> fnord123, say, you don't use sata disks?
[11:48] <fisheye> hi
[11:48] <LjL> pipak, motherboard and chipset?
[11:48] <goodgerster> tamacracka: do you use specialist software to do so?
[11:48] <LjL> !pl | janusz
[11:48] <ubotu> janusz: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[11:49] <tamacracka> with TVU you gotta download an application, then use it with Intercrap 6
[11:49] <fisheye> has anyone tried to intall Fijuu2 ?
[11:49] <scott_> tamacracka, Im unfamiliar with the software TVU.  Is it standalone software?  Is it a website?  Is it streamed via the internet?
[11:49] <fnord123> its a laptop with IDE, unknown_host_
[11:49] <pipak> LjL: ICH3M on inspiron 8200
[11:49] <antia> hola
[11:49] <tamacracka> yeah it streams live feeds of different channels from all over the world
[11:49] <unknown_host_> fnord123, :-\
[11:49] <LjL> ashleyh: when you're finished, paste the URL
[11:49] <Toulouse> hey guys, i have a problem, my computer will not start, like the power is going to it and stuff, but no output. when i start it, the RAM spreaders light up weird and then they turn off and it just sits there. Ok, so here's what i could have messed up: i unplugged the sata cable and made it more tidy, i moved a fan, and i pulled up those two white tabs on the processor fan to clean for dust....
[11:49] <Toulouse> ...any ideas?
[11:49] <fnord123> ram spreaders light?
[11:49] <tamacracka> Watch live TV broadcasts on your PC. TVU networks uses P2P technology to broadcast TV programs live over the Web. The service is based on a number of patent-pending technologies, covering high-quality video coding, efficient real-time P2P distribution, and effective digital rights management.
[11:49] <LjL> Toulouse, this is not quite an Ubuntu question... try #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:50] <Toulouse> oh, sorry
[11:50] <server_> .
[11:51] <humblerodent> My system is crashing constantly and randomly.  Total crash, without any response from mouse or keyboard AT ALL.  I just upgraded to wifi so I thought that was doing something, but then I went back to my old wired card and am still having the same problem.
[11:51] <fisheye> im trying to install fijuu2 and i get some of these errors "Package liblo was not found in the pkg-config search path.
[11:51] <goodgerster> tamacracka: does that software run on linux?
[11:51] <fisheye> i dont know waht to do, i get the samething on Ogre, and i have it installed :(
[11:51] <humblerodent> I'm pretty sure it's a hardware issue though, as I've never had this problem with Ubuntu after years of using it, and have tried reinstalling the OS several times.
[11:51] <humblerodent> all my fans appear to be running normally.  Any help?  TIA
[11:51] <goodgerster> tamacracka: you'll not find any free linux software that supports that system, purely on the basis of the words "patent" and "digital rights management"
[11:52] <scott_> goodgerster / tamacracka, Im looking at the TVU software now since browsing 1000 global channels seems fun.  Im going to see what happens.
[11:52] <goodgerster> humblerodent: please see #ubuntu-offtopic for hardware
[11:52] <scott_> Problem:  I see a constant 6kbps recieved stream in gnome-system-monitor.  When leaving the system on for a long time this adds up to A LOT OF  recieved traffic.  Is it local network traffic?  Im on a wireless network.  It happens even after a fresh restart with no applications running whatsoever.
[11:52] <LjL> pipak: hm i can see this guy with the same chipset http://lkml.org/lkml/2002/6/24/119 no solution that i can see though
[11:52] <tamacracka> lol yeah
[11:52] <wilee85> s
[11:52] <tamacracka> i like to watch shows from different countries
[11:52] <tamacracka> plus maybe i can learn different languages that way
[11:53] <wilee85> Stormx2, any luck with lirc?
[11:53] <tamacracka> so i guess Linux cannot watch live internet TV then eh?
[11:53] <goodgerster> scott_: if nobody answers, nobody knows. don't repeat the question perpetually. incidentally, it is likely to be normal background stuff between the router and your pc
[11:53] <goodgerster> tamacracka: not with that software unless you try it with wine, no.
[11:53] <goodgerster> !wine | tamacracka
[11:53] <ubotu> tamacracka: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[11:53] <scott_> goodgerster, See, you knew, thats all I wanted.
[11:53] <pbureau> tamacracka,  have you checked www.freshmeat.net to see if there was a similar app you could use ?
[11:53] <farruinn> scott_: if the wireless access point acts like a hub, and not a switch, then that may be a source of background traffic
[11:53] <tamacracka> nope, but ill check it now pbureau :P
[11:54] <fnord123> scott, it's likely zombie machines looking for a windows box to take over
[11:54] <fnord123> port scans are frequent
[11:54] <fokuslee> can some one explain ramdisk vs ramfs
[11:54] <ashleyh> Uhhrm, when I enter sudo commands it asks for a password, but my user password does not work. is there a default password or something? :s
[11:54] <kung> gn8
[11:54] <pipak> LjL: the weird thing is that it used to work when I had gentoo. But I'm afraid to fuck ubuntu up if I start messing up with the kernel configuration
[11:54] <toM|vendettA> Hi... I'm trying to install my graphics card and this is what error i get: "The NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 4000 GPU installed in this system is
[11:54] <toM|vendettA>            supported through the NVIDIA 1.0-96xx legacy Linux graphics

[11:54] <toM|vendettA>            ignore this GPU."
[11:54] <scott_> fnord123 / farruinn, The wireless access point does act like a hub.  fnord123:  Thats a lot of port scanning, 24/7.
[11:54] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | pipak
[11:54] <ubotu> pipak: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:54] <goodgerster> ashleyh: no, it's the password of the person who installed the system
[11:55] <tonyyarusso> !paste | toM|vendettA
[11:55] <ubotu> toM|vendettA: 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)
[11:55] <toM|vendettA> sorry tonyyarusso
[11:55] <fnord123> is your wireless hub encrypted?
[11:55] <farruinn> ashleyh: is your user the first account that was created?
[11:55] <LjL> pipak, looking around in google, the only reason i can see for that error is a chipset not being compiled in the kernel. and that seems to be a possibility for ubuntu, seeing bug https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/39432
[11:55] <ashleyh> Yes
[11:55] <scott_> fnord123, there is a WEP key on the access point.
[11:55] <goodgerster> ashleyh: then your password is the correct one
[11:55] <civija> can anyone help me to solve my problem with vino vnc? http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/9474/desktop9py.jpg
[11:55] <Stormx2> wilee85: I just don't know what to do
[11:55] <whyucrypenguin> =)
[11:56] <ashleyh> wait, it works sometimes :l
[11:56] <fnord123> im not an 802.11 expert, but perhaps it's contiually reestablishing the signal
[11:56] <ashleyh> hm
[11:56] <TTT_Travis> argg can't figure it out, my LCD TV connected via HDMI to dvi is stuck in like 1920 x 540 resolution which looks horrible
[11:56] <ashleyh> ill work it out
[11:56] <toM|vendettA> Hi.. I can't install my graphics card... This is the error I get: http://pastebin.com/867513
[11:56] <wilee85> Stormx2, what's the current problem?
[11:56] <fnord123> unknown_host_: I had the disk mounted so it couldn't format it. doh! everything is working now. :D
[11:56] <Stormx2> wilee85: I've compiled lirc... I have no idea what to do now
[11:56] <unknown_host_> fnord123, lolz
[11:56] <goodgerster> civija: you are connecting to your own computer, you berk
[11:56] <wilee85> did you try the way they did it on the wiki?
[11:57] <civija> goodgerster: it's same thing vmware also
[11:57] <fnord123> s/signal/session/
[11:57] <BrendanM> Hey, so I'm having an issue where when I come back from hibernate, my microphone input is dead. Rebooting always fixes it, but I was wondering if there was a way to restart sound or something instead of restarting the whole machine?
[11:57] <goodgerster> civija: that vnc session is showing your own desktop. do you know what vnc is actually meant to do?
[11:57] <wilee85> lol civija you are connecting to localhost
[11:57] <SidSilver4> hi - new unbunu user here...
[11:57] <pipak> LjL: would you know a good guide that explains how to recompile ubuntu's kernel and regenerate initrd?
[11:57] <unknown_host_> SidSilver4, we're all new at some point :-)
[11:57] <LjL> Ubotu, tell pipak about kernel | pipak, see the private message from Ubotu
[11:58] <whyucrypenguin> SidSilver4: hy, me too
[11:58] <SidSilver4> how do I associate a file (like a media file) to a specific program?
[11:58] <MMC> me too
[11:58] <LjL> pipak, it's easy enough, though i'd follow the "old" approach described in that guide if it were me
[11:58] <goodgerster> civija: ...
[11:58] <toM|vendettA> Hi.. I can't install my graphics card... This is the error I get: http://pastebin.com/867513
[11:58] <MMC> :P
[11:59] <ashleyh> LjL and all of you  other helpful folks, here is the pastebin for my ifconfig sudoifup eth0, sudo ifconfig eth0up and cat /ect/network/interfaces :)    http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/2919/
[11:59] <pipak> LjL: it was easy on gentoo, indeed :)
[11:59] <goodgerster> pipak: you basically do the same thing on ubuntu
[11:59] <Cryoniq> Hi everyone. Quick question, if I want to use TeamSpeak in Ubuntu.. should I change sound to use OSS instead of ALSA, or should I specify path to device like /dev/<unknown by me>
[11:59] <LjL> pipak: see this bug also, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/55929 since it's also about a similar issue and it includes a patch for the kernel config (it won't really be appropriate for you of course, but as reference)
[11:59] <adaminla> Can someone answer a question about printer driver instalation for me?
[11:59] <LjL> pipak, joke around as much as you like... it's easy on ubuntu too :)
[11:59] <goodgerster> !ask | adaminla
[11:59] <ubotu> adaminla: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:00] <goodgerster> civija: you are VNCing yourself. you don't seem aware of what VNC does
[12:00] <pbureau> adaminla,  what printer model, how is it connected to the pc  USB/network ??
[12:00] <toM|vendettA> Hi.. I can't install my graphics card... This is the error I get: http://pastebin.com/867513
[12:00] <adaminla> OK do I need to have my computer on or off when intalling the driver?
[12:00] <LjL> ashleyh, erm... the file is /etc/network/interfaces NOT /ect/network/interfacse
