[12:02] <bayziders> The first one didn't work and the second didn't really do any thing
[12:02] <Flannel> bayziders: with backports, it's usually better to just download the package, and install with dpkg locally.  Since enabling the entire backports repository can be troublesome
[12:02] <hjmills> EnsignRedshirt, you told gyaresu_ the diff between sudo vim and visudo :) it helped me out
[12:03] <sylpheedClaws> visudo is sudoers-only
[12:03] <EnsignRedshirt> hjmills: Ah, OK.
[12:03] <bayziders> Where can I get the package and where can I get dpkg
[12:03] <sylpheedClaws> I recommend nano, personally
[12:03] <Flannel> bayziders: you already have dpkg, read the "Single package" instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[12:04] <cables> bayziders go to packages.ubuntu.com for the package. There's a package installer that should open if you doubleclick on the .deb file
[12:04] <sylpheedClaws> AND YOU SPEAK IN CAPS
[12:04] <TheShrewdDude> Hello everyone  :)
[12:04] <sylpheedClaws> AND SPAM
[12:04] <Flannel> Seveas, ping.
[12:04] <sylpheedClaws> hey
[12:05] <Flannel> bayziders: the actual package you'll end up downloading depends on what version of ubuntu you currently have
[12:05] <Seveas> Flannel, hiya
[12:05] <Flannel> Seveas: that was it ;)
[12:05] <TheShrewdDude> I've been using Chatzilla up to now, but gaim is built into edgy by default; how can I set a default irc channel to visit when I load gaim?
[12:05] <hjmills> oh Seaveas - I wanted to earn money!
[12:05] <Seveas> Flannel, I expected as much
[12:05] <Seveas> hjmills, get a job Lo
[12:05] <bayziders> I have the one before Edgy
[12:05] <marshall> hey guys
[12:05] <sylpheedClaws> Dapper
[12:05] <bayziders> Yeah
[12:05] <metroman> Who programmed Ubuntu>
[12:05] <sylpheedClaws> same... I always upgrade it
[12:05] <metroman> ?
[12:05] <TheShrewdDude> does anyone know how to set a default irc channel to go to when gaim loads up?
[12:05] <Seveas> metroman, a gazillion people
[12:05] <cables> metroman, a lot of people...
[12:06] <Dante123> I DID.
[12:06] <MotorCityMadMan> no i did
[12:06] <TheShrewdDude> Or whether there's a support channel? :P
[12:06] <sylpheedClaws> if you want to upgrade, USE THE SOURCES.LIST METHOD. it works better than using the update manager!
[12:06] <jhai1> Is it possible to download a video stream from (for example) the BBC?  I've got the location and it starts with mms://.  I tried using wget but it says "Unsupported scheme"
[12:06] <Seveas> !caps | sylpheedClaws
[12:06] <ubotu> sylpheedClaws: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[12:06] <corevette> how do you test to see if your graphics card is working?
[12:06] <Dante123> All by myself....except for some help from a guy named Linus.
[12:06] <sylpheedClaws> okay, I'll bold it... sorry
[12:06] <marshall> for some reason my spellcheck in openoffice writer isnt catching any spelling mistakes. even when i run the spellcheck it says there are no mistakes in the entire document even after i put things that should definately register as mistakes. anybody know how to fix this?
[12:06] <Flannel> bayziders: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper-backports/web/flashplugin-nonfree you can download the package at the bottom
[12:07] <Dante123> But then he turned against gnome so I dumped him.
[12:07] <EnsignRedshirt> sylpheedClaws: Which upgrade?  For breezy->dapper, Update Manager worked pretty OK for me.
[12:07] <sylpheedClaws> it isn't as reliable...
[12:07] <sylpheedClaws> it's never worked for me
[12:07] <TheShrewdDude> I guess not then.
[12:07] <bayziders> Can I just click install plug in on ff?
[12:07] <jhai1> I have it opened in Totem but there is no option to save.
[12:07] <Flannel> bayziders: no
[12:07] <corevette> how do you test to see if your graphics card is working?
[12:08] <sylpheedClaws> sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list, change dapper to feisty, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:08] <sylpheedClaws> and corv,
[12:08] <sylpheedClaws> glxgears
[12:08] <hairulf1> corevette: type glxgears in a term
[12:08] <gradin> how can you tell if your running dapper or drake?
[12:08] <sterilegenie> glxgears print fps
[12:08] <sylpheedClaws> they're the same
[12:08] <Flannel> gradin: lsb_release -a
[12:08] <EnsignRedshirt> sylpheedClaws: Whoa, isn't edgy in between dapper and feisty?
[12:08] <Seveas> !version | gradin
[12:08] <ubotu> gradin: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[12:08] <sylpheedClaws> oh... never mind
[12:08] <sylpheedClaws> I was talking about what I did. whoops
[12:09] <hairulf1> corevette: Or glxinfo
[12:09] <sylpheedClaws> that's to go to the dev version
[12:09] <sterilegenie> or fglrxinfo
[12:09] <sterilegenie> or glxinfo
[12:11] <nexousNET> Hi.
[12:11] <[knap] > hello
[12:11] <bayziders> What form of program is not good to code in Bash?
[12:12] <nexousNET> How do I CHMOD var/www/ and all of it's files/folders to (777)?
[12:12] <Flannel> nexousNET: you don't want to do that
[12:12] <nexousNET> Flannel: What do I want to chmod it to then?
[12:12] <Flannel> nexousNET: you don't.  What are you trying to accomplish?
[12:12] <sterilegenie> depends on what you are trying to do
[12:12] <Zilus> hi
[12:13] <nexousNET> It's my server files folder, I need to be able to save, create, delete files/folders in there.
[12:13] <variant> nexousNET: for a start, don't do it
[12:13] <variant> nexousNET: 775 is much more secure and will allow you to do that
[12:13] <Flannel> nexousNET: one way would be to add yourself to the www-data group, that'll let you.
[12:13] <sterilegenie> var/www is your files folder? for what?
[12:13] <Flannel> sterilegenie: apache/httpd
[12:13] <nexousNET> ^   ^
[12:14] <sterilegenie> to the public or private?
[12:14] <Khem> I have got two monitors and nvidia card on edgy
[12:14] <nexousNET> private. The PC is offline.
[12:14] <Khem> how can I configure the second one
[12:14] <nexousNET> Flannel: How do I add myself to the www-data group??
[12:14] <sterilegenie> as suggested a 755 would be appropriate
[12:14] <sterilegenie> 775 oops!
[12:15] <Flannel> nexousNET: usermod, or "users and groups" in the systems menu
[12:15] <nexousNET> Flannel: okay.
[12:15] <sterilegenie> im guessing its the server edition of ubuntu
[12:15] <sylpheedClaws> serious problem

[12:17] <moreati> williammanda: WRONG WINDOW!

[12:17] <Flannel> xnix: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support
[12:18] <xnix> ok thakns, thats what i was wondering :D
[12:18] <EnsignRedshirt> klimraamkosie: Ubuntu Dapper

[12:19] <littleknopy> Hello All  Can I Mount a file RWable on a partition that is RO ??
[12:20] <sylpheedClaws> I'm having a problem with apt: I tried to upgrade straight to Feisty from Dapper, and this is what I got: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4772/
[12:20] <sylpheedClaws> Apt will now not work
[12:20] <Flannel> nexousNET: usermod -G www-data -a [username] 
[12:20] <amonkey> during install, what should the swap's mount point be? does it need one?
[12:20] <bruenig> sylpheedClaws, that is a bad idea
[12:20] <sylpheedClaws> I tried apt-get -f dist-upgrade
[12:20] <Flannel> amonkey: swap doesn't mount anywhere.  just label it swap space
[12:20] <Flannel> amonkey: er, not label, indicate in the partitioner
[12:20] <amonkey> Flannel, thanks, just checkin, gotcha
[12:21] <nexousNET> Flannel: unable to lock password file.
[12:21] <cheeseboy16> how do i compile an app?
[12:21] <Flannel> sylpheedClaws: Dapper to Feisty isn't supported.  Thats probably why
[12:21] <Flannel> nexousNET: you'll need sudo
[12:21] <sylpheedClaws> I edited my sources.list afterwards to revert to Edgy

[12:21] <hjmills> !compile
[12:21] <sylpheedClaws> so, now what?
[12:21] <bruenig> cheeseboy16, what application are you trying to compile
[12:21] <Flannel> nexousNET: close your users and groups thing
[12:21] <cheeseboy16> muphen64
[12:21] <cheeseboy16> mupen*
[12:21] <nexousNET> Flannel: It works, I just didn't know to use sudo with it.
[12:21] <MattS> 'loall
[12:22] <sylpheedClaws> any ideas?
[12:22] <hjmills> sylpheedClaws, well the latest kernel stuff is b0rked atm (check the forum homepage) so that may give probs but it looks like some repos havent been changed
[12:22] <bruenig> cheeseboy16, do you just have the tar.bz?
[12:22] <hjmills> night al
[12:22] <cheeseboy16> yes
[12:22] <sylpheedClaws> I reverted the sources to Edgy and updated Apt
[12:22] <sylpheedClaws> any suggestions to downgrade to Edgy?
[12:23] <cheeseboy16> @bruenig*
[12:23] <Flannel> sylpheedClaws: you'll need to manually revert the Feisty packages that were installed.  downgrading isn't supported either
[12:23] <bruenig> cheeseboy16, you can just extract it and then run the script in there called mupen

[12:24] <Flannel> sylpheedClaws: apt I imagine.  You might want to google  around, see if anyone has documented doing it.  I'm not familiar with what it all entails.  You might be able to set high priority on the repository or something, and trick stuff that way

[12:31] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and democracyplayer crash my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/
[12:31] <underground5> has aybody seen any hardware that ubuntu has trouble running on?
[12:31] <Flannel> strav: 192.168.1.1 is your routers IP, for your LAN.  That'll also be your computers gateway address.  But, your router needs to serve a local IP to your computer
[12:31] <underground5> because i got it to work perfict on a p1 233mhz
[12:32] <awjazz> don't run ubuntu if you have wireless network.... it's difficult :S
[12:32] <strav> awjazz, I think you can directly add your wep key as an iwconfig argument... read the man about it (never tried it myself, this is just a suggestion)
[12:32] <awjazz> ok
[12:32] <Flannel> cizra: I don't know.  If that page says so, then yes.  the instructions change for each new version of ubuntu, recently
[12:32] <HighLife> underground I had problems installing it on a simaler computer
[12:32] <underground5> what probs
[12:32] <genii> underground5: It has issues with winmodem type devices of course, like controllerless HCF modems, some Broadcom chipset wireless and so on.
[12:32] <underground5> i'm good with old hardware
[12:32] <HighLife> I could not get it to work on a 233 pentuim mmx
[12:33] <cizra> OK, thank you all!
[12:33] <Cyrus25801> what do you do if a package that you want to install is only available in rpm
[12:33] <underground5> yea some of the motherboard/cards that were specific to windows would have trouble with any distro of linux
[12:33] <[BTF] Chm0d> i have disable artsd by accident or a mess up on my part how do i enable it again?
[12:33] <Flannel> !alien | Cyrus25801
[12:33] <ubotu> Cyrus25801: 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)
[12:33] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, you can use alien, or I would have to think there would have to be source somewhere that you could compile
[12:34] <strav> Flannel, yes the router serves 50 ips starting at 192.168.1.100, I can see in my dhcp tables that my client is indeed connected at 192.168.1.100... what I don't understand, is why can I connect to skype or gaim or ping anyone while I cannot get response from an http request
[12:34] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, what is the name of the app
[12:34] <HighLife> The problem was mostly with the hardware being way out of date
[12:34] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: compusec
[12:34] <Flannel> strav: I don't know.  DHCP should give you all the info to set it up correctly.
[12:35] <Chronosphear> if i want to do losetup /dev/loop0 crypted.aes before my system 'parses' my fstab file. what config/script do i need to change?
[12:35] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: in my old xp machine i used steganos. if you maybe know of something similar
[12:35] <genii> I also wish manufacturers would quit trying to amalgamate crap like printer/scanner/fax  and so on. Big pain in the arse
[12:35] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, security?
[12:35] <fouadz> Hi , when I put ca_enhanced in xorg.conf , it's telling me that the file cannot be found , how can I install that file ?
[12:35] <Flannel> Cyrus25801: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto, don't know why that's not in the factoid anymore.  But, do look for a deb first.
[12:36] <chm0d> could someone tell me how to enable artsd?
[12:36] <awjazz> I'm getting towards giving up on my wireless card and just laying an ethernet cable... I just can't get WEP to work
[12:36] <cpk1> strav: dns issue?
[12:36] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: yes.making safs and deleting internet traces etc
[12:36] <Cyrus25801> safs = safes
[12:36] <strav> Flannel, Yes, well at least if the client obtain it's ip automatically via dhcp... (well it's apparently the case). I've read something about mtu packet size that could pose some problem. Actually my mtu packet size is: 1492... can it be any problem?
[12:36] <borys> chn)d: what's the prob?
[12:36] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, I found a tar.gz
[12:37] <strav> cpk1, yes could be.. though, I've checked resolv.conf, and from my client connected to the router, I can ping each of the name servers defined.
[12:37] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: cool where, how to install?
[12:37] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, http://www.bestsoftware4download.com/software/t-free-free-compusec-pc-security-suite-linux-download-nllkcgdm.html you have to hit the download thing
[12:37] <borys> chm0d: what's the prob?
[12:38] <Hoosteen> is it ok to install the updates for libwnck-common and libwnck18...they are showing in my updates window and won't go away =P
[12:38] <bruenig> !compile
[12:38] <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!)
[12:38] <cables> Hoosteen, why wouldn't you?
[12:38] <awjazz> does linux have a reputation for not liking wireless, and should i just use ethernet?
[12:38] <Hoosteen> i dunno...i get a warning since they are not signed
[12:38] <chm0d> i recieved an dialog box asking if i wanted to disable artsd and i clicked yes by accident borys
[12:38] <strav> cpk1, I've checked and the resolv.conf I used for a direct pppoe connection and the one written by the router in my client is exactly the same...
[12:38] <cables> awjazz, test using the LiveCD and see if your wireless card works.
[12:38] <Music_Shuffle> awjazz, some cards work better than others =/
[12:38] <sylpheedClaws> bye... reformatting my HD and starting over.
[12:38] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and democracyplayer crash my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/
[12:38] <chm0d> i just want to enable it back I have no sound now in quake4
[12:39] <borys> awjazz: d'u like to use a WEP enabled client?
[12:39] <yellow> sylpheedClaws, i suggest you put /home on separate partition
[12:39] <sylpheedClaws> I have backups...
[12:39] <sylpheedClaws> I just installed it yesterday.
[12:39] <awjazz> cables: where's the liveCd?
[12:39] <borys> chm0d: check whether ir\t's still runnig with ps
[12:40] <awjazz> music_shuffle: so a tp-link isn't my best bet
[12:40] <cables> awjazz, the Desktop CD is both the livecd and the install cd
[12:40] <sylpheedClaws> I took the problem to the Ubuntu forums, but I won't care about replies: the thread is at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2126088#post2126088

[12:40] <awjazz> borys: im having problems enabling wep
[12:40] <borys> chm0d it's sorry, it's my keyboard
[12:40] <Music_Shuffle> awjazz, no idea, but if its difficult, I wired my desktop rather than continue battling. Net's quicker too :P
[12:40] <Cyrus25801> bruenig, thanx anyway
[12:40] <plok> I know it can be an stupid question, but I don't know even where I should ask this: is there any standard format in order to save emails into a file?
[12:41] <awjazz> cables: what should i do with the cd when i put it in?
[12:41] <Music_Shuffle> plok, uhh...documents?
[12:41] <plok> copy and paste?
[12:41] <awjazz> music_shuffle: meh sounds better... damn router's only next door anyway

[12:41] <_emmanuel> ctrl v ctrl w

[12:41] <Music_Shuffle> plok, uhh, there is no preferred format for sending documents. Whichever works for you?
[12:42] <_emmanuel> ubuntu is nice but not free
[12:42] <borys> awjazz: iwconfig wlan0 key MYWLANKEY
[12:42] <chm0d> borys: i see nothing in there related to artsd when running ps aux
[12:42] <LjL> _emmanuel: what are you rambling on about, pray tell? please remember that this channel is for Ubuntu support
[12:42] <plok> Music_Shuffle, I understand, but I would like to download all my emails from my inbox, there must be around three thousand.
[12:43] <awjazz> borys: it didn't say it changed the key at all, and still didn't display it afterwards
[12:43] <_emmanuel> it is in default on xchat too, not my fault
[12:43] <borys> chm0d: well just run artsd
[12:43] <strav> awjazz, if I'm not completely wrong, the only wireless protocol that's kinda hard to handle is the 802.11 , used in some colleges... beside that, the biggest %#$ maker is hardware issues.
[12:43] <Music_Shuffle> plok, oh, then I have no idea. Perhaps someone else has a better idea other than 'patience'. XD
[12:44] <LjL> _emmanuel: well, i'm sure you'll keep in mind this channel's guidelines (they can be found in the topic), if you're going to stay here
[12:44] <chm0d> hmm i typed that into console and its just sitting there
[12:44] <awjazz> strav: so most likely the problem is some hardware that won't let the WEP work? cos it's fine with security disabled
[12:44] <plok> Music_Shuffle, thanks
[12:44] <Music_Shuffle> Good luck :)
[12:44] <borys> chm0d: did U put it into bcground?
[12:45] <chm0d> what do you mean exactly?

[12:45] <awjazz> someone suggested using my liveCD to look at the wireless card or something
[12:45] <cheeseboy16> how do i manage my router in linux?
[12:45] <awjazz> it's now loaded in the tray
[12:46] <cables> awjazz, just boot it up. It'll boot a full version of Ubuntu for you to test out. You'll know if the wireless works.
[12:46] <awjazz> cheeseboy: if its done by html, just use a web browser
[12:46] <awjazz> cables: i already have the ubuntu running, and the wireless isn't working
[12:47] <chm0d> borys: i get this error Creating link /root/.kde/socket-rich-desktop.

[12:48] <klark> hello
[12:48] <notgod> ok, I have an interesting question....  what is a good t-mobile phone that works well with ubuntu/evolution w/ some sort of contact syncing?  :)  Oh, T-Mobile phone, that is.
[12:48] <moreati> cheeseboy16: right click the networkmanager icon (next to clock) and select "Connection Information". Read the 'Default Route'. Type the default route into your browser(Firefox). It'll probably be 192.168.1.1
[12:48] <klark> wow, 1002 people? :O
[12:49] <awjazz> ok thanks ill have a look
[12:49] <notgod> klark: ubuntuians
[12:49] <klark> wowz
[12:49] <borys> notgod: who's ubuntians?
[12:49] <klark> last time I was hear, there was maybe 200
[12:49] <cables> does cheeseboy16 have networkmanager?
[12:49] <reiki> ubunchkins
[12:49] <EnsignRedshirt> klark: in 2004?
[12:50] <moreati> cables I thought it was installed out the box, is that only Feisty?
[12:50] <digen> Is there a repos or a .deb to upgrade amarok to the latest version ?
[12:50] <cables> moreati, yep, only Feisty.
[12:50] <notgod> borys: was kidding.  A little hopped up on caffeine, methinks.
[12:50] <klark> anyhow, I'm just wondering -- my mouse's right click button suddenly stopped working -- I asked around, google, and now I'm at the conclusion I need to map my mouse's buttons -- but how? all the guides I found were for Gentoo or some other distro
[12:50] <moreati> cables: oops, is there a gui way to find ip/route etc on <= edgy
[12:50] <cables> moreati, cheeseboy16, you can add Network Monitor to your panel by right clicking and going to Add on your panel. This is sorta like NetworkManager, but it doesn't manage, only shows stuff.
[12:51] <chm0d> ugh dont tell me i have goin to have to reinstall again for the third time today
[12:51] <chm0d> sigh
[12:51] <moreati> oh well time for bed, night all
[12:52] <klark> would the guides for those distros also work for ubuntu?
[12:52] <Jelloman> Hey, I need help getting rid of ubuntu
[12:52] <klark> o0
[12:52] <reiki> Jelloman, boot a live CD and delete the partitions
[12:53] <Jelloman> from inside ubuntu?
[12:53] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and democracyplayer crash. my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/
[12:53] <Jelloman> or cant i do that from windows?
[12:53] <brianski> is anyone else getting broken packages related to  linux-headers-2.6.17-11-generic ?
[12:53] <reiki> you've ONLY got ubuntu?
[12:53] <chm0d> well it sure is easy to break the sound in ubuntu but its hell getting it back
[12:53] <Jelloman> reiki no
[12:53] <Jelloman> i have windows
[12:53] <Jelloman> right now
[12:53] <Jelloman> and i want to get rid of ubuntu
[12:53] <Jelloman> how do i do it without going to bios
[12:53] <Jelloman> because partition magic wont lemme delete the linux partitions
[12:54] <reiki> ok... I don't know why anyone would want to get rid of ubuntu, but... delete the partitions and it's gone. Does your system boot to windows through grub menu?
[12:54] <notgod> Jelloman: boot to the live CD, then use the partition editor to delete the ubuntu partitions, and I think you may be able to re-grow your windows partition as well, but I am not 100% on that.
[12:54] <Jelloman> well
[12:54] <Jelloman> my windows boots
[12:54] <Jelloman> without going to the grub menu
[12:55] <reiki> jelloman: that's good as it should mean you don't have to fixmbr
[12:55] <dueyfinster_> Jelloman: use ubuntu cd installer, go to the partition bit and resize to only windows, then reboot
[12:55] <chm0d> grrrrrr anyone ever seen that video of the dude pounding on their monitor and throwing it?  Im almost at that stage ;)\
[12:55] <brianski> anyone know of a way to change gnome's idea of what the desktop is so that it points to my home directory?
[12:55] <Jelloman> cant i do it from windows
[12:55] <reiki> jelloman: BOOT A LIVE CD
[12:55] <brianski> short of a symlink, which results in a symlink on my desktop
[12:55] <Tom_> Hey everyone :) I've got a bit of a problem with installing Ubuntu onto my Sil3112A RAID0 array. The installer 'sees' the two s-ata drives as singular, not as a combined array. Is there any way sort this? :/
[12:55] <chm0d> i simply disabled artsd cuz im a dumas and cannot figure out how to enable it
[12:55] <cables> brianski, i have an idea, hold on a sec
[12:55] <reiki> forget windows... forget ubuntu... just boot the live CD
[12:55] <Flannel> brianski: it might be in gconf
[12:56] <Tom_> I've been searching around the net. Different distros, different versions, different applications -- nothing that's exactly what I'm after.
[12:56] <_emmanuel> reiki: not powerful in livecd mod
[12:56] <spinster> hello people i running linux ubuntu and i want to change the name on my computer like this example: spinster@spinster-desktop:~$
[12:56] <spinster>  how i can change it pls can somebody help me ?
[12:56] <cables> brianski, Flannel, I don't see anything for it in apps/nautilus/desktop.
[12:57] <Flannel> Tom_: each distro is just a default application thing (well, ontop of the package management and stuff), you can install whatever you want on them.
[12:57] <brianski> spinster - echo your-host-name | sudo tee /etc/hostname
[12:57] <Jelloman> reiki can i use my iso'd one
[12:57] <reiki> jelloman: if it's a live CD sure
[12:57] <adam_> where can i get help with my c++ code
[12:57] <Flannel> !hostname | spinster
[12:57] <ubotu> spinster: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly
[12:57] <Flannel> adam_: ##C++
[12:57] <adam_> ty
[12:57] <LiENUS> is there a tspc package im missing?
[12:58] <brianski> cables, was your idea gconf or do you have another?
[12:58] <Flannel> Tom_: I imagine the most important thing is the package management, since apps are all swappable.  Just find package management that you like/whatever.
[12:59] <cables> brianski, that was my idea... but I couldn't find anything
[12:59] <LiENUS> ahh its in universe
[12:59] <brianski> cables, i see, well thanks anywho
[12:59] <LesterGreen> does linux/ubuntu have a similar to windows type of device manager that shows the installed devices and if any of them arent recognized or arent working / configured properly?
[12:59] <underground5> fuck!!! the turbo button on my 386sx broke now i can't play doom
[12:59] <LiENUS> underground5, ?
[12:59] <awjazz> hi still no joy on the WEP front. I'm giving up for tonight, and may just get an ethernet cable anyway. Thanks for your help

[01:00] <Rounin> Hello...! The driver for my webcam produces an image that is too dark, but I read a rumour that there's a newer version that fixes the problem... Is there any way I can find out which version I'm using?
[01:00] <underground5> oh sorry lol
[01:00] <underground5> wrong channel
[01:00] <Rounin> I tried modinfo, but it doesn't seem to find anything
[01:00] <underground5> i was talking to someone else
[01:00] <thechanklybore> Hello Chaps
 Tom_: each distro is just a default application thing (well, ontop of the package management and stuff), you can install whatever you want on them. <-- I'm talking about the installer, not the installed OS.
[01:01] <thechanklybore> I have been through guide after guide on this subject.
[01:01] <EnsignRedshirt> brianski: In gconf-editor, apps/nautilus/preferences has an option called 'desktop_is_home_dir', but I'm not sure what it does.
[01:01] <Tom_> My S-ATA array is my *only* drive.
[01:01] <spinster> Flannel: damn i cant change :(
[01:01] <LesterGreen> does linux/ubuntu have a similar to windows type of device manager that shows the installed devices and if any of them arent recognized or arent working / configured properly?
[01:01] <Flannel> Tom_: Eh?  what are you looking for then?
[01:01] <Tom_> When you install, for instance, XP
[01:01] <SDBolts21> vista up linux down
[01:01] <Tom_> It prompts you to press F6 to install third-party RAID or SCSI drivers.
[01:02] <spinster> sh-ubuntu
[01:02] <spinster> hostname: you must be root to change the host name
[01:02] <Tom_> I have to do that for my Sil3112A RAID (on-board) controller, so that my HDDs can be seen as an array.
[01:02] <spinster> Flannel: why ?
[01:02] <Flannel> Tom_: you're trying the alternate CD, right?
[01:02] <cables> SDBolts21, ??
[01:02] <hairulf1> Yeah yeah, haste la Vista, baby....
[01:02] <tryll1980> how do i make the equivalent to windows batch programs in linux?
[01:02] <Flannel> spinster: because you can't change your hostname as a regular user.  use sudo to open the editor
[01:03] <Tom_> Ubuntu 6.10 doesn't give this option, but does see the drives -- sadly not as an array, just as single drives.
[01:03] <Tom_> Flannel: Pretty sure it's the alt CD.
[01:03] <Flannel> tryll1980: bash scripts are probably the most common
[01:03] <tryll1980> like go to that folder and run that file
[01:03] <cables> tryll1980: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/
[01:03] <cables> try that
[01:03] <Flannel> Tom_: Does it boot to a GUI? or textmode?
[01:03] <af-fsfe-org> LesterGreen: http://tinyurl.com/2azeza
[01:03] <Tom_> GUI-ish boot menu.
[01:03] <spinster> Flannel: i can;t open now my term
[01:03] <spinster> :S
[01:04] <Tom_> Installation is all text.
[01:04] <hairulf1> #j #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:04] <Tom_> The Partitioner seemed pretty basic :/
[01:04] <tryll1980> cables:that looks a bit advanced
[01:04] <Flannel> !raid | Tom_, this may be of assistance
[01:04] <ubotu> Tom_, this may be of assistance: 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
[01:04] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and democracyplayer crash. my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/
[01:04] <LesterGreen> af-fsfe-org: okay i knew that but does it show devices that ARENT installed / running properly
[01:04] <cables> tryll1980, sorry then
[01:04] <Byan> Tom_: do you want to use software RAID or RAID on the card?
[01:04] <tryll1980> but thnx anyways
[01:04] <Tom_> RAID on the controller.
[01:04] <Tom_> That's how it's setup, and I'll need to dual-boot XP on the same array too.
[01:05] <EnsignRedshirt> tryll1980: Put your commands in a file (say "myscript").  To run the commands, enter sh myscript
[01:05] <tryll1980> can anyone just show me a simple bash script then to go to a folder and run a command inside it?
[01:05] <Tom_> Flannel: I'll give the link a read :)
[01:05] <gravemind> how do I mount a cue/bin disk image?
[01:05] <jrattner> Question: Is there a Tor howto for ubuntu?
[01:05] <Byan> so, you need to get the drivers for using RAID on the controller.. unless.. do you have the RAID set up?
[01:05] <linuxer> cd "folder destination"; ccommand
[01:05] <Tom_> Oh wait, Flannel: I've read this.
[01:05] <Byan> I mean.. the controller should give you an option to set it up.. while the computer is booting
[01:05] <LjL> gravemind: don't think you can, but you can convert it
[01:05] <LjL> !mdf2iso
[01:05] <ubotu> mdf2iso: A simple utility to convert mdf to iso / cue / toc images. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.0-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 6 kB, installed size 60 kB
[01:06] <yellow> jrattner, same tor howtu as in tor.effnet.org
[01:06] <Byan> or something, thats what mine does
[01:06] <gravemind> cool thanks
[01:06] <Tom_> It says this 'is NOT for people with new, blank HDDs, use software RAID instead', so that's not me.
[01:06] <jrattner> yellow, there's nothing ubuntu specific?
[01:06] <LjL> gravemind: no wait, sorry - wrong program
[01:06] <LjL> !bchunk
[01:06] <ubotu> bchunk: CD image format conversion from bin/cue to iso/cdr. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.0-1 (edgy), package size 12 kB, installed size 68 kB
[01:06] <yellow> jrattner, no, exept for maybe how to get it?
[01:06] <Byan> Tom_: no, that is for you...
[01:06] <yellow> jrattner, apt-get install tor
[01:06] <yellow> jrattner, apt-get install tor privoxy
[01:06] <gravemind> LjL: that mdf one is good too, I have some alchohol files I need to convert also
[01:07] <Byan> Tom_: it's for people not using software RAID
[01:07] <Byan> which would include you
[01:07] <jrattner> yellow, no i see the package, but is there any configurational things i need to do
[01:07] <yellow> jrattner, then fix privoxy config as in the tor doc, then you're done
[01:07] <art_> hey
[01:07] <linuxer> I would like to know if is possible install E17 with Beryl.. someone can help me? ^^
[01:07] <art_> how can i get mysql?
[01:07] <yellow> jrattner, to use privoxy you need to edit privoxy config
[01:07] <Tom_> 1) download and install your kernel source <-- How do I do that when I can't install anything?!
[01:08] <jrattner> yellow, do u know where the "tor doc" your refering  to is?
[01:08] <linuxer> I tried install beryl with my gnome, and it works normal, but with my E17 it's almost impossible =/
[01:08] <Tom_> That article, Byan, is based upon installing Ubuntu to a seperate drive and then mounting the Sil3112A array.
[01:09] <jrattner> yellow, ?
[01:09] <Tom_> The array is my one, my only, and my boot drive. Two 36 Raptors aren't much use otherwise.
[01:09] <yellow> jrattner, http://tor.eff.org/docs/tor-doc-unix.html.en
[01:09] <Tom_> Not when dual-booting.
[01:09] <yellow> jrattner, skip the installation part since you've got it through ubuntu repos already
[01:09] <EnsignRedshirt> art_: mysql is in the Ubuntu repostories.  In Synaptic, search for mysql, and then scroll down to the packages that begin mysql-
[01:09] <tryll1980> YESS!!! It worked.....I can make bash-scripts now to run my screenlets:P
[01:09] <Byan> Tom_: hmmm it should give you a start though
[01:09] <EnsignRedshirt> *repositories
[01:09] <tryll1980> thnx guys
[01:09] <Byan> Tom_: you need to mount that on the live CD
[01:09] <Tom_> How? I can't do anything that it's asking me to do?
[01:09] <Byan> and then install it
[01:10] <Tom_> Ok.
[01:10] <Tom_> So I guess I can use the Ubuntu installer via X on the live CD?
[01:10] <Tom_> Or from a terminal?
[01:10] <shmeelAway> any1 have a script that will let me run things as root? i had one but my reinstalling edgy went bad and i lost everything lol
[01:10] <rainwalker> I just tried updating my system and it said that some updates require the removal of further sofware, use the "mark all upgrades" of the package manager in synaptic or run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade". Is this important?
[01:10] <Jeruvy> Tom_: either
[01:10] <Byan> Tom_: /me shrugs doens't matter
[01:10] <yellow> jrattner, Once you've installed Privoxy (either from package or from source), you will need to configure Privoxy to use Tor. Open Privoxy's "config" file (look in /etc/privoxy/ or /usr/local/etc/) and add the line
[01:10] <yellow> forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 .
[01:10] <yellow> to the top of the config file. Don't forget to add the dot at the end.
[01:10] <spinster> Flannel: wtf look now what i have spinster@hostname:~$ ls
[01:10] <[Dystopic] > Anyone have any experience getting WiFi to work? Network connections show up in various scanners, But I can't connect to them?
[01:11] <spinster> i want to change spinster@hostname:~$
[01:11] <spinster> i want to type willam@ubuntu:~$
[01:11] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and democracyplayer crash. my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/
[01:11] <spinster> can i set like that Flannel pls tell me
[01:11] <DARKGuy> Hey, how do I know the kernel boot parameters that were sent? I want to get some parameters the alternate CD has for enabling framebuffer (since all my other tries with vga=791 and similar have been with no avail)
[01:11] <jrattner> got it
[01:12] <yellow> spinster, create another user named willam ? =)
[01:12] <haakuturi> spinster - you need to make another user called william and to change your hostname, are you running Gnome?
[01:12] <spinster> yes i running gnome
[01:12] <DARKGuy> Wait, nevermind, I'm gonna post on the forums, and rephrase that 
[01:12] <haakuturi> you should be able to change your hostname somewhere in your Admin settings...
[01:12] <spinster> haakuturi: but i don't want another user i want to change this user
[01:13] <[Dystopic] > Anyone have any experience getting WiFi to work? Network connections show up in various scanners, But I can't connect to them?
[01:13] <spinster> BUT I WANT TO CHANGE THE NAME TOO
[01:13] <haakuturi> I don't think you can change the username and keep everything the same
[01:13] <bruenig> !caps
[01:13] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[01:14] <Tom_> Byan: After reading, I'm still skeptical that this would work for installing. Yes, it appears that it would allow me to mount the drive via dmraid. But how do I install programs, when I'm booting from a live CD? Where would they be 'installed'? RAM?
[01:14] <LiENUS> whats the proper procedure for adding another ip to a server?
[01:14] <LiENUS> to an interface...
[01:14] <Tom_> Also, if I manage to mount the drives, install Ubuntu and then reboot to boot from the newly installed OS .. dmraid install would be gone?
[01:14] <spinster> sudo hostname ubuntu
[01:14] <spinster> sudo: unable to lookup hostname via gethostbyname()
[01:14] <Byan> Tom_: yeah, see, I'm not sure....
[01:14] <spinster> :S wtfg
[01:14] <Tom_> So surely it would fail to find the correct array.
[01:15] <spinster> wtf tell me come on
[01:15] <jrattner> yellow, Is there anyway for me to confirm that Tor is working?
[01:15] <Tom_> What I *think* I need, is a way of slip-streaming (forgive the term) some awareness of the array, into the installer's kernal.
[01:15] <EnsignRedshirt> spinster: Are you trying to change the name of your computer, or just the prompt that you get in a terminal?
[01:16] <dyrne> im connecting to a vpn server. connects fine and if i do 'route' i get destination:vpnip  gateway:192.168.1.1 and my defalt gateway is 192.168.1.1 but if i do to a website its still showing my regular isp ipaddress not the vpn network's and of course i cant access internal network sites. any suggestions would be appreciated
[01:16] <spinster> i want to change the name on my computer
[01:16] <spinster> EnsignRedshirt: please can you help me.
[01:16] <Byan> Tom_: well, you should be able to do it without doing that...
[01:16] <Byan> I'm just not sure how...
[01:17] <Flannel> spinster: you set your hostname to 'hostname'
[01:17] <Flannel> !hostname | spinster
[01:17] <ubotu> spinster: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly
[01:17] <Byan> when I did my RAID0, I had no problem, it worked perfectly..., SuSE picked it up without any fault
[01:17] <Tom_> Heh
[01:17] <Byan> but.. that was a long time ago...
[01:17] <spinster> in term to i type sudo hostname  ?
[01:17] <Tom_> /me moves to #suse :p
[01:17] <fr500> !avahi
[01:17] <Byan> SuSE is BAD btw
[01:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:17] <fr500> !daap
[01:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about daap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:17] <Catachan> Could any one help me with the installation of the "hla" (High Level Assembly Language) file in Ubuntu? I managed to get to this page, (I have downloaded the file, and I am sad to say that I am confused by what I need to do now) The confusion really starts at about halfway down the page, however, when the instructions tell me to go to the .bashrc, I can't find what I am supposed to be doing, since I can't find the PATH line that is described in the ins
[01:17] <Catachan> tructions. Thank you very much!
[01:18] <yellow> jrattner, try ps aux | grep tor
[01:18] <Catachan> oh, I need to paste the link
[01:18] <Catachan> http://webster.cs.ucr.edu/AoA/Linux/HTML/HelloWorld.html
[01:18] <Catachan> oops
[01:18] <EnsignRedshirt> spinster: I don't know, it might be as simple as System -> Administration -> Networking -> General (tab).  Change the hostname.
[01:18] <dyrne> resolv.conf is changed and everything looks right except for this routing problem
[01:18] <LiENUS> how do i add another ip to an interface?
[01:18] <bruenig> Catachan, .bashrc is located in /home/username/.bashrc
[01:18] <Byan> Tom_: if I were you, i'd just try and install it that way..? what do you have to loose?
[01:18] <Tom_> My windows partition? lol
[01:18] <EnsignRedshirt> spinster: I am using Dapper.
[01:18] <spinster> :S
[01:18] <spinster> ko
[01:18] <spinster> ok
[01:18] <Byan> lol
[01:18] <spinster> ok i will change the hostname
[01:19] <Tom_> I've got most important things backed up, so I might give it a go
[01:19] <spinster> but how to change the computer name pls tell me ????/
[01:19] <yellow> jrattner, then go to firefox, edit the preferences to use proxy localhost @ 8118 and socks @ 9050
[01:19] <EnsignRedshirt> spinster: Umm, aren't they the same thing?
[01:19] <Catachan> bruenig, opened .bashrc, but the described variable to change the PATH did not seem to exist
[01:19] <spinster> no
[01:19] <yellow> jrattner, then point firefox to ipchicken.com, if it's not your ip then you're good
[01:19] <Tom_> Out of interest though, where do things go when you install an app, when booted from a Live CD? :S
[01:19] <LiENUS> how do i add another ip to an interface?
[01:19] <Catachan> it is supposed to be used to tell the bash term where to look when I Type in the program name
[01:20] <jrattner> yellow, cool its working thanx alot
[01:20] <dyrne> LiENUS: eh?
[01:20] <Byan> Tom_: I'm no expert.. but if that does work.. then they'd just be installed on a fake partition.. RAM disk or otherwise
[01:20] <EnsignRedshirt> spinster: Hmmm... out of curiosity, how would I find my computer name?
[01:20] <Catachan> perhaps I am just confused, (Actually, that is a garruntee)
[01:20] <bruenig> Catachan, what is this? Seems like windows instructions
[01:20] <spinster> look
[01:20] <LiENUS> dyrne, multiple ips on one interface...
[01:20] <Catachan> half way down the page linux starts
[01:20] <LiENUS> how do i add them
[01:20] <EnsignRedshirt> spinster: Look where?
[01:21] <spinster> bbl to rest pc
[01:21] <gOLdenHaWK3D> hi all
[01:21] <xtknight> yo
[01:21] <Catachan> bruenig, section 2.2.2
[01:21] <Catachan> little over halfway down actually
[01:21] <bruenig> Catachan, oh, yeah the PATH is in /etc/environment
[01:21] <Catachan> okay
[01:22] <loca|host> i have just installed ubuntu on my PC, there's a problem, BIOS does'nt appear to be detecting that an OS has started, by default, when the computer starts, the fans will go fast till windows loads, fans will slow down, with ubuntu, fans never slow down
[01:22] <Catachan> so that is from the "/" file right?
[01:22] <Tom_> Ok Byan, thanks.
[01:22] <bruenig> Catachan, just do sudo gedit /etc/environment and edit it like it says
[01:22] <LiENUS> whats the proper procedure for adding another ip to a network interface?
[01:22] <Catachan> okay
[01:22] <Catachan> thanks a ton!
[01:22] <Tom_> loca|host: That's more than likely a chipset driver issue.
[01:22] <Tom_> Either that or it's Video drivers, and you can hear your video card screaming.
[01:23] <Igor_V2> hey...is that possiblie to kill -9 a range of processes...for example...all processes that start with PID 5...
[01:23] <bruenig> Igor_V2, did you try *
[01:23] <xtknight> Igor_V2: i dont know..have you tried kill -9 5*?
[01:23] <reiki> better CD player than Sound Juicer?
[01:23] <LiENUS> killall on solaris does NOT do the same thing as killall on linux
[01:23] <Igor_V2> yes...doens't work
[01:23] <xtknight> LiENUS: what is the difference?
[01:24] <LiENUS> killall on solaris kills ALL processes
[01:24] <xtknight> ahh
[01:24] <spinster> hey
[01:24] <xtknight> !hi
[01:24] <bruenig> why would that command exist

[01:25] <bruenig> seems a rather violent way to do it
[01:25] <LiENUS> bruenig,  linux does the same thing
[01:25] <spinster> I dont change the username

[01:28] <__mikem> No its not
[01:28] <LiENUS> your nick is offensive
[01:28] <bruenig> especially when assignment of good is given to it
[01:28] <Shane-S> I seem to be making progress with Safe Mode

[01:29] <LiENUS> funny
[01:29] <francois> jmichaelx: ok gimme a sec to raed it
[01:29] <LiENUS> someone told him
[01:29] <DARKGuy> I noticed that too
[01:29] <spinster> tell me pls
[01:29] <jmichaelx> francois: no problem
[01:29] <LjL> spinster: /nick nickname
[01:29] <Flannel> spinster: `man usermod` for information.  You have no right getting upset about this.
[01:29] <__mikem> bruenig, Id tell you what I think of your political correctness but I don't want to get kickbanned
[01:29] <Fernando> coleh
[01:29] <LiENUS> spinster,  usermod -l
[01:29] <bruenig> to associate the dysfunction that is god with linux is to bash linux which isn't fair I think
[01:29] <bruenig> that is all I am saying
[01:30] <spinster> LiENUS: i type usermod -l
[01:30] <Fernando> alguem do Brasil ai?
[01:30] <spinster> and now ?
[01:30] <Fernando> insanidade....
[01:30] <Fernando> haha
[01:30] <LiENUS> usermod -l dumb
[01:30] <LiENUS> type that
[01:30] <francois> jmichaelx: libc was recently updated, maybe you have a problem with the new one...
[01:30] <redham> i have an ubuntu apache2 server, whenever my router is reset, the server does not automatically connect back to the network, is there a way i can get it to automatically connect?
[01:30] <Flannel> spinster: no.  You need to give it options.  And, later you'll want to change your homedir too.
[01:30] <francois> jmichaelx: i can't seem to find anything else
[01:30] <francois> jmichaelx: just a bunch of no signal errors, lol
[01:30] <EnsignRedshirt> spinster: After reading 'man usermod', I *think* this is what you want: usermod -l newname spinster
[01:30] <Flannel> spinster: man usermod for more information, with that attitude, you probably won't get much more help here.
[01:30] <DARKGuy> Crazy question: If I'd like to rebuild all for i586 or whatever my architecture is, is it possible? to do something like apt-build everything or something? xD
[01:30] <spinster> $ usermod -l dumb
[01:30] <spinster> usermod: user dumb does not exist
[01:30] <livingdaylight> since when is mp3 not a supported format in K3b which is what its telling me?
[01:30] <bruenig> spinster is back...
[01:30] <LiENUS> whats the proper procedure for adding another ip to a network interface?
[01:31] <jmichaelx> francois: there were a few other problems that showed up at the same time. for example, i used to see a picture for each video file in konqueror, and now that stopped working
[01:31] <Flannel> DARKGuy: you don't need to.  Are you on edgy? or dapper?
[01:31] <LiENUS> bruenig,  your nick is offensive please sign off
[01:31] <__mikem> Oh God No, spinster is back
[01:31] <DARKGuy> Flannel: Edgy
[01:31] <Catachan> okay, so, since I had to edit the environment, do I need to reload Ubuntu or can I use a command to reset the variables?
[01:31] <Flannel> DARKGuy: the -generic kernel is already optomized for your arch
[01:31] <bruenig> well associating god and spinster is fair
[01:31] <marcusg> hi, i'm trying to connect to my ipod with amarok
[01:31] <marcusg> i get an error saying "failed to write to iPod database"
[01:31] <Flannel> LiENUS, bruenig, Everyone, take it elsewhere.
[01:31] <francois> jmichaelx: hum, try removing the xine engine, with the purge option, and reinstalling it
[01:31] <DARKGuy> Flannel: but some other packages are built for i386, right?
[01:31] <jmichaelx> francois: this problem started suddenly upon playing what i think was a corrupt video file that i had downloaded
[01:31] <Music_Shuffle> marcusg, have you tried...GTKPod?

[01:32] <marcusg> music_shuffle: yes, i have GTKPod, it works ok, but crashes when i try to add more than a few tracks at a time
[01:33] <DARKGuy> Flannel: Ah, I see, so it doesn't matter if a program was built for i386 or i586, it'll be the same thing anyways?
[01:33] <Music_Shuffle> marcusg, not sure why yours is acting up, but Amarok ended up just erasing my entire iTunes.db file, and I ended up switching to Rockbox.  Not sure if you want to, but that's an option. :)
[01:33] <Lanlost> Hi, I have wifi at my old house which is a street over from this one. We have three computers here as well but only mine can get a signal from the router. Is it possible to use another router and plug my ethernet cable from mine into the internet input on the router at this house and share the internet that way?
[01:33] <redham> is there an ubuntu server channel?
[01:33] <Lanlost> I'm not sure how to forward internet like that in linux.
[01:33] <jmichaelx> francois: using kaffeine with xine engine.... nothing
[01:33] <Flannel> DARKGuy: yeah.  Or if there would be differences, they'd be so slight that you'd be wasting time compilinganyway
[01:33] <Flannel> redham: this is t
[01:33] <LiENUS> whats the proper procedure for adding another ip to a network interface?
[01:34] <DARKGuy> Flannel: I see, thanks then for answering and clarifying that up ^^
[01:34] <eobanb> will the nvidia drivers in restricted work with beryl, or do i need a newer, beta version
[01:34] <Catachan> bruenig, do I need to run a command on the file I just edited? if so, what command should I run?
[01:34] <fr500> avahi-daemon won start on boot
[01:34] <fr500> can anyone help?
[01:34] <marcusg> music_shuffle: i'd prefer to work out why amarok isn't working rather than just switch to rockbox. also i've already added all my tracks
[01:34] <francois> jmichaelx: what about in konquerer, if you try a different player, such a gstreamer or mplayer, do you get anything ?>
[01:34] <jmichaelx> francois: i may need to re-install..... i just hate the idea of it
[01:34] <bruenig> Catachan, no you shouldn't need to
[01:34] <jmichaelx> francois: yeah, mplayer works fine
[01:34] <pbureau> Lanlost, no you need an AP repeater box
[01:34] <Catachan> bruenig, just save it and go from there?
[01:34] <Catachan> okay
[01:34] <Catachan> cool
[01:35] <redham> i have an ubuntu apache2 server, whenever my router is reset, the server does not automatically connect back to the network, is there a way i can get it to automatically connect?
[01:35] <LiENUS> whats the proper procedure for adding another ip to a network interface?
[01:35] <francois> jmichaelx: i beleive theres a way to check all current packages,
[01:35] <francois> jmichaelx: don't think you should reinstall
[01:35] <Tom_> Byan: Now *this* is more like it :) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[01:35] <Music_Shuffle> marcusg, good idea, no ideas here though, are you also asking in #amarok perhaps?
[01:35] <jmichaelx> francois: i hope you're right..... i was up all night working on this lol
[01:35] <Lanlost> pbureau.. I don't understand why..
[01:36] <livingdaylight>  since when is mp3 not a supported format in K3b which is what its telling me?
[01:36] <francois> jmichaelx: so opening somehting in kaffein just gives you that error ?
[01:36] <Lanlost> I'm recieving internet into this computer.. I have an ethernet port thats not in use.. Why can't I just plug a cord in from that to my router internet input?
[01:36] <Flannel> livingdaylight: you'll need to install mp3 codecs
[01:36] <jmichaelx> francois: yes, i get the kde crash handler
[01:36] <Lanlost> and run a program thats specifically made for that?
[01:36] <david_> hello
[01:36] <Amenemhet> hello all
[01:36] <Lanlost> You can do it with windows.. I know there has to be a way with linux.. I just don't know the terminology
[01:36] <Lanlost> Its just internet sharing from one input.. why does it matter that the input for the internet is wireless for me
[01:36] <pbureau> Lanlost, simple a router needs a WAN connection, the other router procures from a wan connection AP connections (acces points) for computers to connect to, a router cannot connect to an AP signal, so you needf to get an AP repeater (signal extender) so that anyone at your house can enjoy the original AP signal
[01:37] <game_dev> hello
[01:37] <livingdaylight> Flannel, i can play mp3's no worries
[01:37] <game_dev> does any1 else here use Beryl
[01:37] <livingdaylight> Flannel, curious why K3b doens' t wanna burn 'em
[01:37] <livingdaylight> Flannel, ready vaery carefully again what i wrote
[01:37] <Flannel> livingdaylight: er, that'd have nothing to do with codecs.  burners just burn data.  they dont care what they are.
[01:37] <pbureau> Lanlost, an AP repeater seeks an AP signal and repeates the signal at a more localized area (thus the word repeater)
[01:37] <francois> game_dev: i use beryl
[01:37] <LiENUS> whats the proper procedure for adding another ip to a network interface?
[01:38] <Amenemhet> depends on the interface
[01:38] <game_dev> nice, i couldnt get compiz to work so i tried beryl, 1st time working, im using it now
[01:38] <quaal> what do you use in ubuntu for .rar
[01:38] <bruenig> !rar
[01:38] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[01:38] <livingdaylight> Flannel, exactly, so, why is k3b saying this?
[01:38] <Amenemhet> lol
[01:38] <francois> jmichaelx: hummm...i don't think i can help you, if you've tried purging it and reinstalling xine... sorry
[01:38] <quaal> bruenig, thankyou
[01:38] <game_dev> ummm, does any1 on an ATI card have the Rain effects working?
[01:38] <Flannel> livingdaylight: no idea, never used it.
[01:38] <bruenig> !thanks | quaal
[01:39] <ubotu> quaal: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[01:39] <pbureau> Lanlost, so your trying to capture an AP signal and run it into your house ? (ie thru a wired connection ?) or wifi again ?
[01:39] <LiENUS> Amallya,  eth0
[01:39] <LiENUS> err Amenemhet eth0
[01:39] <quaal> ha
[01:39] <Nippa> Why on earth doesn't the gnome-applets package in ubuntu have the command line applet?
[01:39] <Flannel> redham: you'll probably be doing something with ifupdown, to reconnect
[01:39] <Amenemhet> is it a cisco router?
[01:39] <quaal> Nippa, why do you want a command line applet
[01:39] <SDBolts21n56> hi
[01:39] <jmichaelx> francois: yes, i did that
[01:39] <quaal> just keep the terminal open
[01:40] <Nippa> quaal: because sometimes I like to run on off commands and don't want to bother opening a terminal
[01:40] <SDBolts21n56> why is vista so much better then linux?
[01:40] <Amenemhet> now thats funny
[01:40] <quaal> Nippa, surely you can assign the terminal to a keyboard shortcut
[01:40] <quaal> SDBolts21n56, because it cannot be hacked !!
[01:40] <quaal> billgates says so
[01:40] <Tom_> SDBolts21n56: Where's xgl eh? :p
[01:40] <pbureau> ahahaha
[01:40] <Nippa> quaal: you're completely missing the point here
[01:40] <Amenemhet> bill ....sigh....
[01:40] <ruzgar> hello everyone
[01:40] <Amenemhet> yo
[01:40] <livingdaylight> Flannel, hrmmm...interesting
[01:40] <Nippa> quaal: I DO have it mapped to a shortcut, but that's not the point
[01:40] <ruzgar> i have problems with refresh rate
[01:41] <livingdaylight> Flannel, very interesting...
[01:41] <ruzgar> i have a ati radeon 9600
[01:41] <quaal> Nippa, dunno what to tell ya man.. tried the forums ?
[01:41] <Tom_> Actually, Kororaa's 0.1 Live CD was more impressive than Vista's Aero Glass GUI.
[01:41] <livingdaylight> ruzgar, nothing to brag about..
[01:41] <ruzgar> i have selected ati drivers from xorg.conf
[01:41] <SDBolts21n56> Tom_, what is xgl?
[01:41] <Amenemhet> who needed help with a router??
[01:41] <Nippa> quaal: not yet, this was my first stop
[01:41] <ruzgar> but my resolution is always 60 hz
[01:41] <ruzgar> normally my monitor runs in 75 hz
[01:41] <ruzgar> I gave the refresh rates in to xorg.conf
[01:42] <ruzgar> but that doesnt work I cant change my resolution that is always 60hz
[01:42] <pbureau> !enter | ruzgar
[01:42] <ubotu> ruzgar: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:42] <ruzgar> ok
[01:42] <SDBolts21n56> what is a map installer?
[01:42] <CodyLoco> Hey so I can get Ubuntu to load up if I use safe graphics mode
[01:42] <ian6> is the kernel 2.6.17.11 update problem still happening?
[01:43] <pbureau> ian6, looks like it.
[01:43] <grumillo> when installing ubuntu with dual boot how do i check the correct position to install grub? thanks
[01:43] <CodyLoco> but it crashes when the desktop background loads up and the cursor comes up
[01:43] <ruzgar> my monitor is benq fh71gx and my graphics card is an ati radeon 9600 pro, also I selected the ati driver and I also wrote the monitor attributes into xorg.conf
[01:43] <ruzgar> but my monitor always 60 mhz
[01:43] <ian6> pbureau: ah, thanks. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't only me.
[01:44] <robbiev> hey all. I have a Radeon X1300. I've noticed that the drivers are crap, the whole machine chokes when I activate my screensaver. Is there an existing xorg driver that will for for it? I don't care about hardware acceleration at this point. I just want the darn this to run.
[01:44] <ruzgar> should I use fglrlx driver
[01:44] <LiENUS> whats the proper procedure for adding another ip to a network interface?
[01:44] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and crash. my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/   i was up all night trying to fix this and am at an end. if i am not providing enough detail, please let me know  |   the kde crah handler says 'signal 11 (SIGSEGV)'
[01:44] <ruzgar> in my laptop ati drivers doesnt support widescreen, then I install fglrlx drivers that is solved
[01:44] <Amenemhet> Lienus---> is it a cisco router?
[01:44] <robbiev> ruzgar, again, the fglrx friver is crap. It is the whole reason for my pain.
[01:45] <pbureau> Amenemhet, I think hes talking about a net card
[01:45] <jmichaelx> *crash
[01:45] <ruzgar> ummm ok i'll try another drivers
[01:45] <LiENUS> Amenemhet, no its ubuntu
[01:45] <ruzgar> thanks for helps anyway
[01:45] <LiENUS> hence im asking in #ubuntu
[01:45] <EnsignRedshirt> Is there a text-based editor (like nano) that uses ctrl-s for save, ctrl-q for quit, etc?
[01:46] <Milosh> hi all.. i running Linux Ubuntu Operating System, and i want to uninstall it how i can remove linux ?
[01:47] <LiENUS> Milosh,  get a windows cd and install
[01:47] <Amenemhet> oooh, giver upper eh?
[01:47] <Flannel> Milosh: just install windows back overtop of it
[01:47] <Milosh> Flannel, i dont have windows
[01:47] <LiENUS> Milosh,  or whatever you want to install over it, there is no "uninstall" procedure
[01:47] <Flannel> Milosh: what else did you want to put back on the computer then?
[01:47] <LiENUS> Milosh,  what do you want to replace it with then?
[01:47] <HP_Vue> Hey, I am wanting to start up my own server, but I have extremely valuable files on my computer and other computers on my network, is ubuntu the right distro to be using for this job?
[01:47] <Milosh> Flannel, i want to uninstall and install ubuntu again
[01:47] <Flannel> Milosh: oh.  Just... pop the install CD back in.
[01:47] <LiENUS> HP_Vue,  if you keep track of security then yes
[01:47] <Gimpy> just install ubuntu over it then
[01:48] <Milosh> Flannel: ok i enter the cd and now ?
[01:48] <arke> Hi. :)
[01:49] <At0mic_PC> Is there something like spamassasin for linux?
[01:49] <LiENUS> Amenemhet,  why would i ask about a cisco router?
[01:49] <Milosh> Flannel ??
[01:49] <Gimpy> mislosh: then restart the computer and it should boot from the cd and then you can reinstall
[01:49] <Flannel> Milosh: yeah, just install again.
[01:49] <HP_Vue> LiENUS, Is there a 0 percent chance of my computer or other computers on my network being compromised?
[01:49] <Flannel> At0mic_PC: spamassasin is available for linux
[01:49] <Amenemhet> lol, been elsewhere dude, forgot where i was :)
[01:49] <At0mic_PC> Flannel: Thanks. I guess I didn't look hard enough...
[01:49] <Milosh> but i dont know how to install it sorry :{ now i enter CD and restart PC and what then ?
[01:49] <Milosh> hmm ok bbl....
[01:50] <_`XeOn_> hello
[01:50] <cafuego_> At0mic_PC: Is there somehting like spamassassin for NON-linux?
[01:50] <SDBolts21n56> What is a map installer?
[01:50] <Flannel> At0mic_PC: it's in universe, you'll need to enable it if you haven't already
[01:50] <cafuego_> At0mic_PC: Incidentally, you might want to try 'bogofilter' I find it has a better hit rate than SA.
[01:50] <_`XeOn_> how do i mount my win32 partition?
[01:50] <Nutubuntu> Hello all, I am trying to enable a simple thing - spellcheck in OO.o writer - but I can't get it to work. I wondered whether anyone could quickly check the path to dictionary in their OO.o writer and help me out?
[01:51] <Kearin> Hello everybody. If I were to start learning a programming language, which one do you think would be the most useful? (The closest thing I have to programming experience is creating .html pages in notepad)
[01:51] <LiENUS> HP_Vue, no, but theres never 0 percent change of your computer being compromised unless it is disconnected from all devices, from all networks, and powered off and disconected from the power
[01:51] <Flannel> Kearin: #ubuntu-offtopic is a better place to ask
[01:51] <Amenemhet> too true there LiENUS
[01:51] <Kearin> Flannel, thanks. Wasn't aware of that channel.
[01:51] <_`XeOn_> how do i mount my win32 partition?
[01:52] <shmeelAway> any1 have a script that will let me run things as root? i had one but my reinstalling edgy went bad and i lost everything lol
[01:52] <HP_Vue> I absolutely need to know if my files on my computer and other computers on my network are secure, because what the files contain..... anyway, What if there were no valuable file on my computer, what is the risk of other computers on my network?
[01:52] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and crash. my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/   i was up all night trying to fix this and am at an end. if i am not providing enough detail, please let me know  |   the kde crash handler says 'signal 11 (SIGSEGV)'
[01:53] <pbureau> _`XeOn_,  man mount (something like  mount -t ntfs /dev/device /mountpoint/mountpoint
[01:53] <Slant_Laptop> How do I enable AIGLX/compositing effects? I was told there is check-mark box I can enable in the control panel?
[01:53] <LiENUS> so how can i add another ip to my network interface :/
[01:53] <Flannel> Slant_Laptop: #ubuntu-effects has all the info youll need
[01:53] <LiENUS> Slant_Laptop,  you have to install beryl
[01:53] <cafuego_> Slant_Laptop: on feisty, yes
[01:53] <Amenemhet> HP_Vue--if ya use a router then use its MAC filter for a start
[01:53] <Slant_Laptop> I'm on feisty. Thanks.
[01:54] <cafuego_> Slant_Laptop: You need to install 'desktop-effects'.
[01:54] <HP_Vue> Amenemhet: So then the other computers will be secure?
[01:54] <brianski> !feisty
[01:54] <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
[01:54] <cafuego_> Slant_Laptop: then ther'll be a n intel on the control center.
[01:54] <sleepy723> hello
[01:54] <cafuego_> An entry in the control center
[01:54] <cafuego_> arrrg
[01:54] <Amenemhet> well, you add the MAC addresses of all your pc's on your network to it, then the router will only allow them
[01:55] <HP_Vue> 
[01:55] <Amenemhet> it is though , bear in mind, not absolute'where theres a will, there's a way'
[01:55] <Amenemhet> is it a home network?
[01:55] <HP_Vue> Yes
[01:56] <shiv> yellow, hi how are u
[01:56] <Amenemhet> your router probably has a firewall as well, yes?
[01:56] <JamesG> Does anyone know of a command line mp3 repair tool?
[01:56] <HP_Vue> Yup
[01:56] <Amenemhet> can you configure yourself?
[01:56] <HP_Vue> yes
[01:56] <JamesG> Or.. any mp3 repair tool?
[01:57] <HP_Vue> What about encrypting files? Will that help at all?
[01:57] <Tom_> I might be blind, but .. Where on Earth can I download the Edgy live CD?
[01:57] <HP_Vue> The value of whats in these files.....
[01:57] <Amenemhet> well, if it is half decent, it will have a MAC address filter,
[01:57] <DigitalNinja> I just got a Lexmark c534dn color laser printer. How do I install the driver? It doesn't show up in cups
[01:57] <Amenemhet> sure
[01:57] <Flannel> Tom_: it's the "desktop CD", and ubuntu.com/download (6.10)
[01:57] <Tom_> !livecd
[01:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu Dapper 'Desktop' CD contains a Live CD (Ubuntu that runs straight off the CD and RAM) with an install option. Breezy's Live CD contained no install.

[02:10] <bobby> Amenemhet: Thats what I was wondering if it can e installed via Internet

[02:11] <kamikazaa> what is name card eth0, eth1.......what is name of wireless card pci, i have just one pci card on my pc
[02:11] <Flannel> linux_: try the alternate CD instead of the DEsktop CD
[02:11] <sylpheedClaws> ...I already made a suggestion
[02:11] <fatbrain> jrib: Will check that out too, thanks.
[02:11] <LiENUS> linux_,  how low do you need the refresh rate?
[02:11] <sylpheedClaws> con
[02:11] <LiENUS> kamikazaa,
[02:11] <linux_> alternate takes hours to install
[02:11] <LiENUS> type iwconfig
[02:11] <con-man> oh
[02:11] <LiENUS> itl'l tell you which si the wirelesss
[02:11] <con-man> lemme check
[02:11] <sylpheedClaws> try using wildcards:
[02:11] <Lanlost_> this is one thing that was always easier in windows.. just right click the properties for the network adapter.. .. enable internet connecting sharing.. there seems to be like 30-40 steps for the linux equivlent
[02:11] <Gokul> hello
[02:11] <con-man> yeah
[02:12] <sylpheedClaws> move ./* .., for example
[02:12] <linux_> is there a boot options command to turn the refresh rate down?
[02:12] <LiENUS> linux_,  how low do you need the freresh
[02:12] <LiENUS> ?
[02:12] <linux_> 40 Hz
[02:12] <sylpheedClaws> Lanlost, there should be a GUI tool for it
[02:12] <LiENUS> wth?
[02:12] <LiENUS> what kind of display?

[02:13] <ckern> ok, thanks
[02:13] <Gokul> The following packages have been kept back:

[02:13] <LiENUS> itl'l make em easier to ship
[02:13] <Gokul> why are these packages being kep back from the upgrade?
[02:13] <LiENUS> Gokul, theres a bug or something
[02:13] <sylpheedClaws> Well, gtg... I've got a new Ubuntu system to try
[02:13] <Nutubuntu> Gokul - it's a server-side package management glitch; ignore it; a bug has been filed and they're working it
[02:14] <fatbrain> Kate <- is that for KDE only?
[02:14] <Amenemhet> Gokul...there bya go lol
[02:14] <fatbrain> erm, rephrase, is there a Kate for gnome?
[02:14] <Flannel> fatbrain: no, but it does use KDE libs.
[02:14] <linux_> is 40 Hz possible to add to the boot options for ubuntu 6.10 live?
[02:14] <cheeseboy16> how do i install this fceu-server_0.0.5.orig.tar.gz           ?
[02:14] <Music_Shuffle> fatbrain, it uses the KDE libs.
[02:14] <jrib> fatbrain: you can use kate in gnome if that is what you want
[02:14] <Music_Shuffle> fatbrain, gedit
[02:14] <Flannel> fatbrain: if you install it in gnome, you'll drag in KDE libs.  But sure, you can use it
[02:14] <LiENUS> linux_,  ask in #ubuntu
[02:14] <Amenemhet> linux...dunno, but whats wrong with 60?
[02:14] <kamikazaa> where i can typin ifconfig, sorry i nevr use linux i install that yesterday
[02:14] <fatbrain> Music_Shuffle: gedit doesn't look as advanced as kate
[02:14] <Music_Shuffle> LiENUS, we ARE in #ubuntu. :P
[02:14] <Gokul> Nutubuntu: ok, thanks
[02:15] <Lanlost_> will someone please answer me? it can't be that hard.. I have a wireless connection and a wired connection.. everytime I plug in the wired connection it tries to use that as my internet connection
[02:15] <kamikazaa> where i can typin ifconfig, sorry i nevr use linux i install that yesterday........linus
[02:15] <LiENUS> Amenemhet,  hes using a 1994 hewlet packard monitor
[02:15] <fatbrain> Flannel: I don't want that, I'll search for some other editor.
[02:15] <linux_> i don't know either, it usually handles 60, but its a whole bunch of horizontal lines when starting ubuntu in every mode
[02:15] <Lanlost_> I want to use the wireless as my internet connection, but the wired for the local area connection
[02:15] <Music_Shuffle> fatbrain, You can just use kate under Gnome, although it'll require the KDE libs. Not that bad :)
[02:15] <Flannel> linux_: use the alternate CD
[02:15] <jrib> !terminal | kamikazaa
[02:15] <ubotu> kamikazaa: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[02:15] <Amenemhet> :(
[02:15] <linux_> ok, another 5 hour install then :(```
[02:16] <Flannel> linux_: it shouldn't take 5 hours.  If it does, the Desktop CD would take multiple as well.
[02:16] <fatbrain> Music_Shuffle: I wont have standard gnome apparenace, gnome-ui-guidelines > kde-equivalent-stuff
[02:16] <Amenemhet> lanlost...eth probably defaults to wired
[02:16] <der0b> lanlost_: are you using NetworkManger?  if yes, to the best of my knowlege you won't be able to do what you want
[02:16] <tmalloy> can anyone help me with a sound problem? I've already tried the comprehensive guide on the forums
[02:16] <LiENUS> Flannel, hes booting on a really old machine
[02:16] <linux_> p2
[02:16] <LiENUS> linux_, ubuntu i dont think is the right distro for what you want...
[02:16] <Flannel> LiENUS: he's got an old monitor, not an old machine.
[02:17] <LiENUS> Flannel,  hes got a 4mb graphics card
[02:17] <linux_> i actually have two of them
[02:17] <Amenemhet> no i agree with LiENUS
[02:17] <Fedge> Flannel: Hey flannel, you around?
[02:17] <linux_> neither work with ubuntu live
[02:17] <LiENUS> linux_,  have you tried a distro thats more trimmed down?
[02:17] <LiENUS> like dsl?
[02:17] <Flannel> linux_: even with the refresh rate, the graphics card probaby couldn't handle the lvieCD either.
[02:17] <der0b> or puppy
[02:17] <fatbrain> Ill go with Vim, since it had a project-addon, thanks a bunch guys.
[02:17] <linux_> yeah, slax works fine
[02:18] <linux_> GUI and all
[02:18] <kamikazaa> o.k thenx i now rebbot my system to linux if i config wireless (internet) i never use windows ;)..........see you letter ....big respect
[02:18] <LiENUS> linux_, then honestly... you might have to go with one of those
[02:18] <Flannel> Fedge: yeah, you ever get grub not-installed? or just went with alternate?
[02:18] <LiENUS> puppy linux and dsl are both remarkable
[02:18] <Amenemhet> maybe knoppix would be a better choice?
[02:18] <LiENUS> puppy linux is probably a little better than dsl... i dont know though as i havent really used puppy much
[02:18] <Fedge> Flannel: well, i did get everything working
[02:18] <linux_> maybe, i really wanted the apt-get in ubuntu
[02:18] <Fedge> Flannel: i even managed to get grub to boot vista
[02:18] <Amenemhet> lol well done
[02:18] <LiENUS> linux_, can you go without gui?
[02:18] <Flannel> linux_: DeliLinux is tiny, and uses apt
[02:19] <R3linquish3r> Does anyone know which repo i need to get plugins for GAIM 2.0?
[02:19] <Pelo> Fedge, why oh why ??
[02:19] <linux_> i can go without a gui
[02:19] <mindstate> what about knoppix
[02:19] <LiENUS> dsl can use apt too...
[02:19] <LiENUS> linux_,  you could install ubuntu server...
[02:19] <Fedge> Flannel: my dirty little secret was installing grub to a floppy
[02:19] <Music_Shuffle> R3linquish3r, universe/multiverse?
[02:19] <linux_> i tried that, and the GUI which i installed from that crashed
[02:19] <Fedge> Pelo: because i found it challening/fun
[02:19] <linux_> i really wanted to try to get a gui on there...thats why i went ahead and downloaded 6.10
[02:19] <linux_> live
[02:19] <Amenemhet> i never could get dsl to boot....how long does it take? i waited 25 minutes, then gave up
[02:19] <R3linquish3r> Music_Shuffle, i have them both enabled and i can only get 1.5 plugins which dont work with GAIM 2.0 which is installed
[02:20] <Pelo> Fedge,  you'll enjoy #masochism then
[02:20] <linux_> maybe i'll reinstall xubuntu 6.06 alt and upgrade through that
[02:20] <quaal> anyone know how i login to the ubuntu machine from a windows computer to access a share on ubuntu
[02:20] <Music_Shuffle> R3linquish3r, THe plugins were installed by default for me I think...really.
[02:20] <Fedge> Pelo: i'm a mod there ;-)
[02:20] <mindstate> quaal: depends on wut kind of FS ur using for linux, there's software though
[02:20] <zzswift> evening
[02:20] <quaal> mindstate, i've already made the share through samba
[02:20] <mindstate> mindstate: i've got linux mounted in windows
[02:20] <Amenemhet> quall.....depends on the windows version
[02:21] <quaal> i'm just getting the login box on the windows machine
[02:21] <quaal> windows 2000
[02:21] <R3linquish3r> Music_Shuffle, i probably should note im using dapper not edgy. i used automatix2 to isntall gaim and synaptic to install extra plugins. the plugins installed were 1.5 though
[02:21] <quaal> or no
[02:21] <quaal> windows xp
[02:21] <Fedge> Flannel: I couldn't get the desktop cd to work, so i threw in the server cd and configured grub to boot off fd0
[02:21] <mindstate> quaal what filesystem is ur linux partition
[02:21] <Music_Shuffle> R3linquish3r, ahh, nevermind then, I have no idea.
[02:21] <quaal> mindstate, ext3 i believe
[02:21] <Flannel> Fedge: server CD couldve just as easily been alternate CD ;)  same installer
[02:21] <R3linquish3r> Music_Shuffle, aight thanks anyway
[02:21] <Amenemhet> then sorry dude
[02:22] <Kickaha> Evening, all. I'm having a little trouble with Ubuntu's Update Manager. I'm hoping someone can help?
[02:22] <Fedge> flannel: makes sense I suppose, and thanks for all your help/googling last night
[02:22] <quaal> hmm i think i found a guide her ehttp://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=301178

[02:22] <Nutubuntu> Kickaha - it's telling you packages are being held back?
[02:22] <Amenemhet> linux can read ntfs, fats etc, not the other way tho
[02:22] <Kickaha> Two packages, to be precise
[02:22] <linux_> Kickaha, try sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:22] <mindstate> quaal: i've got the software on my windows partition , i cant think of the name though works with ext3
[02:22] <Lanlost_> der0b> lanlost_: are you using NetworkManger?  if yes, to the best of my knowlege you won't be able to do what you want. .. whats an alternative to networkmanager?..
[02:22] <yves_mg> hi
[02:23] <Nutubuntu> Kickaha - they're kernel related?
[02:23] <Amenemhet> lan....yes its probably defaulting, pull the plug an see
[02:23] <Kickaha> All right - give me a second. (Two systems on a KVM switch...) And yes, both are kernal related. The message is :
[02:23] <yves_mg> is there somebody who knows what file represent the startup programs while starting x window?
[02:23] <shmeelAway> any1 have a script that will let me run things as root? i had one but my reinstalling edgy went bad and i lost everything lol. thing online doesn't work

[02:23] <Amenemhet> ?
 lan....yes its probably defaulting, pull the plug an see
[02:24] <Nutubuntu> Kickaha - it's a server-side package management glitch; ignore it; a bug has been filed and they're working it
[02:24] <Lanlost_> well yeah.. but I wnat to default to the wireless connection
[02:24] <mindstate> Amenemhet: lemme go thru my windows drive hold on
[02:24] <Lanlost_> not the eth connection
[02:24] <Lanlost_> shouldn't there be a simple 10 second way to change this?
[02:24] <Kickaha> Nutubuntu - so it's not at my end?
[02:24] <Amenemhet> lanlost.....on a windows or linux?
[02:24] <Lanlost_> linux
[02:24] <Toma-> Lanlost_: just change the default in networkmanager?
[02:25] <imbecile> anything in particular i need to know before installing beryl?
[02:25] <Lanlost_> theres no option in networkmanager that I see..
[02:25] <Kickaha> shmeel - I don't know where it is, but there's a root terminal option in Synaptic.
[02:25] <nexousNET> Hi, how do I change the computer name?
[02:25] <Flannel> imbecile: #ubuntu-effects has all the details
[02:25] <Nutubuntu> Kickaha - nope. I had the same issue today; so did many others ... I am guessing here from total ignorance, but I'd be surprised to see it again tomorrow
[02:25] <Lanlost_> I had to just uncheck my wired connection
[02:25] <Amenemhet> not sure dude, im a newbie to ubunto, but I know fedora gives me greif at college dude
[02:25] <Flannel> !hostname | nexousNET
[02:25] <Toma-> imbecile: perpare yourself to be amazed :D
[02:25] <ubotu> nexousNET: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly
[02:25] <Lanlost_> otherwise anytime I lpug in my ETH .. which goes to NOTHING.. it tries to connect to it..
[02:25] <mindstate> Amenemhet: eh..it didnt create a program files folder..but dude they've got it..just google it
[02:25] <nexousNET> Flannel: Thanks.
[02:25] <Kickaha> If you use it, once you do, you'll get a root terminal menu itme in.. one sec..
[02:25] <Lanlost_> I mean its plugged into my router.. but I dont want to use that as my internet connection
[02:26] <imbecile> thanks guys
[02:26] <yves_mg> is there somebody who knows what file represent the startup programs while starting x window? i'm using ubuntu
[02:26] <Kickaha> Ah. You'll get a root terminal menu item in your system tools submenu.
[02:26] <Lanlost_> I want my wireless to be my internet connection and my wired ethernet to be my local area network
[02:26] <Kickaha> Just look through Synaptic, and the package will be somewhere in there - that's where I found it.
[02:27] <marshall> how do you partition a usb key to fat32?
[02:27] <blankfaze> so, the GNOME file dialogues suck really hard.  i assume they are a byproduct of nautilus.  is there a way to use some other file browser like (vomit) konqueror or something?
[02:27] <der0b> lanlost_: if memory serves, networkmanager will ALWAYS disconnect your wireless and use the physical connection when you plug it in.  that is by design
[02:27] <Amenemhet> lanlost ...ya lost me there, how many pcs are ya netting and so on?
[02:27] <Lanlost_> uh..
[02:27] <Amenemhet> yes
[02:27] <Lanlost_> so its impossible to ipmasquerade then
[02:27] <Lanlost_> ... ok ..
[02:28] <Catachan__> did anyone get that message?
[02:28] <Lanlost_> all I want to do is use my wireless internet connection.. and then forward that to the router at my house..
[02:28] <Catachan__> okay, 'tis me again, still having some trouble with the file I mentioned earlier, please scroll halfway down the page to see the "Linux install section 2.2.2" http://webster.cs.ucr.edu/AoA/Linux/HTML/HelloWorld.html
[02:28] <Lanlost_> I have a router with an internet connection at the house across the street frmo me.. but none of my other room mates can connect to it.. its out of their signal
[02:28] <Kickaha> Oh, and thanks, Nutubuntu - I was frustated that nothing I tried seemed to work, and was concerned I'd shot myself in the foot (even though that's rather hard to do with Ubuntu - one of its graces..)
[02:28] <Lanlost_> I'm at the window next to it.. so I get a good signal..
[02:28] <Catachan__> we determined that I had to go to /etc/environment and edit that, but a few steps down, it tells me to add four lines to the same file it told me to edit before, so, I am wondering if perhaps, I need to add those files to somewhere other than that environment file
[02:28] <tmalloy> can anyone help me with a sound problem? I've already tried the comprehensive guide on the forums
[02:28] <Amenemhet> lanlost....ahhhh
[02:28] <Lanlost_> so I was going to connect to it.. like I am now.. and then forward it to my router whcih I can hardwire into..
[02:28] <Nutubuntu> Kickaha - y/w : )
[02:28] <Lanlost_> so they could get the internet
[02:28] <Flannel> Catachan__: you sure you're in the right channel?
[02:28] <Lanlost_> I dont understand why its impossible to do this..
[02:29] <Amenemhet> you want them to wire into you ?

[02:29] <Lanlost_> there are two routers.. I am connected to the router with the internet connection..

[02:29] <Lanlost_> I just need to get the connection from my computer into the router HERE
[02:29] <Lanlost_> basically I awnt to use my computer as a wireless access point.
[02:29] <nexousNET> Anyone successfully setup a WPC 54G linksys wireless adapter on 6.06?
[02:29] <Amenemhet> yes i see now
[02:29] <Catachan__> this is related to ubuntu, and installing the assembler, if you can tell me a better channel, I will gladly clear the airwaves of my questions here to go ask in the appropriate place
[02:29] <loca|host> i have just installed ubuntu on my PC, there's a problem, BIOS does'nt appear to be detecting that an OS has started, by default, when the computer starts, the fans will go fast till windows loads, fans will slow down, with ubuntu, fans never slow down
[02:30] <Flannel> Catachan__: sorry, right.  misread your statement.  thought you were installing linux kernel 2.2.2 ;)
[02:30] <Amenemhet> you need to set up a network ie network sharin then
[02:30] <farruinn> Lanlost_: I believe you can do that with NAT. I hear it's fairly easy to configure with firestarter
[02:30] <Lanlost_> but the problem is.. everytime I connect my router to my computer here.. it disconnects my connection to the one across the street
[02:30] <Kickaha> One last question before I go. Does anyone know where I can get the Dapper Drake icons in windows format? JUST the icons? I rather like the drive icons in Ubuntu, far more than I like the Windows icons, and would like to pinch them for my windows box.
[02:30] <Amenemhet> ahhhhh
[02:30] <ivx> hey, i accidently deleted gaim from the tray, how can i get it back up there
[02:30] <Amenemhet> let me think a sec
[02:30] <der0b> lanlost_: and it will keep disconnecting as long as you're using network manager..
[02:31] <quaal> mindstate, yea this definitely works.. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=301178 just have to add your login to make it a smblogin
[02:31] <Amenemhet> yes i think so....
[02:31] <quaal> dont have to deal with installing stuff on windows
[02:31] <Amenemhet> because it will always default
[02:31] <der0b> lanlost_: I just went with ndiswrapper.
[02:31] <Lanlost_> omg.. firestarter seems to be an internet connection sharer
[02:31] <mindstate> quaal: maybe ill try that way..seems simpler
[02:31] <farruinn> ivx: from the tray or from your panel? The icon in the tray only appears when gaim is running, so just open it again.
[02:31] <Lanlost_> der0b.. so now do I stop network manager?
[02:31] <quaal> mindstate, thanks
[02:31] <Lanlost_> ndiswrapper? I don't need to use windows drivers
[02:31] <mindstate> quaal: no problem
[02:32] <ivx> farruinn, yes i deleted it from the tray, i clicked  removed from panel, do it poped up, then i went to x it and now it will just close, i can't minimize it to tray anymore
[02:32] <Flannel> Catachan__: what are you adding to /etc/environment?
[02:33] <farruinn> ivx: it sounds like you actually removed the tray itself maybe? right-click the panel>add to panel... system tray
[02:34] <ivx> farruinn, yes that is what i did, but when i did add to tray, it was not under there
[02:34] <con-man> I need to access a .pst file, how can I accomplish this
[02:34] <DJ_Gentoo> ...I'm back
[02:34] <DJ_Gentoo> oh ,hey, I am.
[02:34] <Amenemhet> hmmm, pst.....is that an outlook file?
[02:35] <DJ_Gentoo> clicked "join" 3 times...
[02:35] <Pooky> What's a good tool for building ERD's for databases in linux?
[02:35] <Catachan__> Flannel, I was adding a path to point it to the hla (High Level Assembler)
[02:35] <quaal> does ubuntu have a program similar to poweriso?
[02:35] <quaal> so i can mount an iso image
[02:35] <quaal> and share it
[02:35] <Flannel> Catachan__: oh, you do that in .bashrc like it says
[02:35] <sylpheedClaws> yes
[02:35] <ubuntuineedofhel> Can anyone help me to setup my wireless usb
[02:35] <sylpheedClaws> use mount -o loop
[02:35] <Flannel> !iso | quaal
[02:35] <ubotu> quaal: To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[02:35] <mindstate> can't u mount iso directly in terminal
[02:35] <mindstate> yes
[02:35] <quaal> awesome
[02:35] <sylpheedClaws> yes
[02:35] <Catachan__> the part that confuses me is that in .bashrc, the PATH variable is not there
[02:35] <quaal> thanks guys
[02:35] <CrakeHunter> hello i would like to apply the automiatc updates but dont have the password (fresh install) what should i do?
[02:36] <ubuntuineedofhel> ok what do I do first
[02:36] <Flannel> Catachan__: you just add it (you probably have an empty .bashrc anyway)
[02:36] <Pelo> CrakeHunter,  it's your own password you need
[02:36] <CrakeHunter> well i never entered one!
[02:36] <Nutubuntu> con-man - you could look for libpst - I haven't used it myself so that's all I know about it
[02:36] <farruinn> Pooky: dia
[02:37] <Amenemhet> boot into single user mode in grub or lilo, or boot from a cd, try hirens boot cd, good tools in there for password recovery
[02:37] <Pelo> CrakeHunter,  didn't you pick a password for your own accound ?
[02:37] <farruinn> Pooky: actually, i don't know if it's a *good* tool, but it is *a* tool for doing that :)
[02:37] <Flannel> Catachan__: er, sorry. different file you wouldn't have.  You do have a .bashrc,
[02:37] <CrakeHunter> a i get it ;) ill try that
[02:37] <Kickaha> Thanks for the help, and I'll see you around soon.
[02:37] <Pooky> hehe
[02:37] <Pooky> farruinn, well thanks for the suggestion
[02:37] <shmeelAway> any1 have a script that will let me run things as root? i had one but my reinstalling edgy went bad and i lost everything lol. thing online doesn't work
[02:37] <CrakeHunter> worked, thanks
[02:37] <farruinn> Pooky: I haven't used it extensively, but it may server your purposes
[02:38] <farruinn> shmeelAway: that's a bad idea. Why not just use sudo?
[02:38] <Pooky> I have a database and I was hoping there was a nice tool for just drawing relations between the tables
[02:38] <Polygon89> hello, i am wondering why the update manager wont let me update three packages, linux header, image and restricted modules. they are greyed out in the update manager
[02:38] <mindstate> shmeelAway: sudo
[02:38] <mindstate> lol
[02:38] <Nutubuntu> Polygon89 -   - it's a server-side package management glitch; ignore it; a bug has been filed and they're working it
[02:38] <Pooky> I've seen tools for it on os x and windows, and was hopeful there would be one on linux
[02:38] <shmeelAway> with the right click, just makes some things easier
[02:38] <ubuntuineedofhel> I have a Belkin 54g wireless usb and I am using Ubuntu 6.10
[02:38] <Flannel> Catachan__: and adding it to your bashrc doesn't work? (you'll want to copy the line from /etc/environment and append, because PATH= will overwrite the old stuff
[02:38] <shmeelAway> i won't go around deleting and destroying everything
[02:38] <Pelo> Polygon89,  it's on the repo side,  leave it alone they will update when they get fixed or what ever
[02:38] <Polygon89> pelo, nutubunutu, ok. thanks!
[02:39] <sylpheedClaws> this is my first time upgrading from Dapper to Edgy on Ubuntu via hacking sources.list... the other 2 times, I used Xubuntu
[02:39] <Amenemhet> crakehunter??
[02:39] <Catachan__> Flannel: the thing is that I do have a .bashrc, but I needed to edit the PATH variable in the environment file, so now I need to figure out the second part that is for identifying what to export and import to the assmebler
[02:39] <sylpheedClaws> should that make a difference?
[02:39] <loca|host> i've tryed an upgrade from breezy to edgy and ran into xserver-xorg issue, someone know this issue ?
[02:39] <jrib> sylpheedClaws: it's recommended that you use the update-manager, not edit your sources.list manually
[02:39] <ubuntuineedofhel> could anyone please help me
[02:39] <sylpheedClaws> uhoh...
[02:40] <sylpheedClaws> I might have to wipe my partition again. Ebbeh.
[02:40] <farruinn> Pooky: try searching around a bit with 'apt-cache search' or on http://packages.ubuntu.com, it looks like there may be a couple of other options
[02:40] <Pelo> ubuntuineedofhel,  did you try searching for your model make and number in the forum ?
[02:40] <sylpheedClaws> thanks for catching that
[02:40] <loca|host> any one ?
[02:40] <ubuntuineedofhel> how do you detect a wireless usb
[02:40] <blankfaze> can someone list off some alternatives to the Nautilus file manager
[02:40] <Flannel> loca|host: Breezy to edgy isn't supported.  Breezy to dapper to edgy is the correct upgrade path
[02:40] <jrib> sylpheedClaws: well you /can/ upgrade that way, but sometimes it gets bumpy
[02:40] <sylpheedClaws> I saw somethign somewhere about how Xubunt users should hack, and Ubuntu users should use Update Manager
[02:40] <amicrawler> well if the system will see it you can use it
[02:41] <shmeelAway> pretty please some1?
[02:41] <sylpheedClaws> thanks for catching that in time- it wasn't done downloading!
[02:41] <farruinn> loca|host: I don't think skipping releases is recommended
[02:41] <Pelo> blankfaze,  look up nautilus in wikipedia , you might get a list of alternatives ( comparison of files managers )
[02:41] <blankfaze> pelo:  oh.  good idea.
[02:41] <jmichaelx> could anyone help me on this? i cannot play any video files right now using kaffeine+xine (or anything else plus xine, as far as i can tell.) it makes programs like kaffeine and crash. my debugging info looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4775/   i was up all night trying to fix this and am at an end. if i am not providing enough detail, please let me know\
[02:41] <gabriela> hello
[02:41] <jrib> shmeelAway: use sudo when you need to run things as root
[02:41] <Amenemhet> hmmm, yes dont skip aan upgrade
[02:41] <gabriela> hi everyone
[02:41] <linux_> what is the fastest that yall recommend installing with ubuntu?
[02:41] <mindstate> hello gabriela
[02:41] <Flannel> sylpheedClaws: update-manager was causing some troubles on xubuntu, yeah.  I don't know if they're resolved.  xubuntu site has info
[02:41] <linux_> fastest GUI
[02:42] <gabriela> mindstate
[02:42] <gabriela> hi
[02:42] <spasticteapot> jmichaelx: There's a plugin in Synaptic that gets you AVI, WMV, and other compatibility.
[02:42] <mindstate> :)
[02:42] <spasticteapot> Can't remember what it's called.
[02:42] <shmeelAway> the problem is i don't know like any nautilus commands
[02:42] <goofey> is this a good thing or a bad thing when doing an apt-get upgrade: "The following packages have been kept back: linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic"
[02:42] <jrib> shmeelAway: what do you mean?
[02:42] <shmeelAway> everything i do with sudo i basically have to go online to look up
[02:42] <Flannel> goofey: don't worry about it.  It'll get fixed soon.  And it won't cause any issues currently
[02:42] <Nutubuntu> goofey -  it's a package management glitch in the repositories; ignore it; a bug has been filed and they're working it
[02:42] <jrib> shmeelAway: what do you need to do exactly?
[02:42] <Eroick> I'm buying a desktop for linux. I want to run Ubuntu, or maybe XUbubntu. I have pastebinned the specs of the two computers. which do you recomend? This PC would be mainly just for desktop stuff... The specs: http://pastebin.ca/346076  . Also, I need a wireless card. A PCI one. Which do you recomend?
[02:42] <Pelo> g'night folks
[02:42] <gabriela> mindstate: i have an issue with a notebool
[02:42] <Amenemhet> have you a password set for root?
[02:42] <goofey> Flannel: thanks!!!
[02:42] <ubuntuineedofhel> does anyone know how to setup a wireless usb card I greatly appreciate it
[02:43] <Amenemhet> smeelaway?
[02:43] <gabriela> midstate the battery drain to fast
[02:43] <jmichaelx> spasticteapot: i don't think that is what i need.... i had videos working fine for a long time
[02:43] <mindstate> gabriela: what sore of problem
[02:43] <Flannel> Eroick: that's a question for #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks.
[02:43] <shmeelAway> jrib, like change the access of some files and such
[02:43] <Lanlost_> so no one knows how to stop using network manager?
[02:43] <goofey> Nutubuntu: thanks!!!
[02:43] <Nutubuntu> : )
[02:43] <mindstate> gabriela: lol sounds like u need a new battery
[02:43] <gabriela> mindstate: the battery drain too fast
[02:43] <jrib> shmeelAway: you shouldn't need to do that that often if at all
[02:43] <Eroick> Flannel: sorry, Ill take it there :)
[02:43] <gabriela> no is new
[02:43] <shmeelAway> i dont' want to actually log in as root, just a few things once in a while
[02:43] <Amenemhet> shmeelaway.....you need to set a password for root
[02:43] <Amenemhet> first
[02:43] <linux_> lanlost_, can you just uninstall it using apt-get?
[02:43] <gabriela> minstate the notebook is new
[02:43] <farruinn> shmeelAway: then 'sudo chmod <stuff>'
[02:43] <Flannel> Amenemhet, shmeelAway, just use sudo -i
[02:43] <Lanlost_> ok, but what do I use instead?
[02:43] <gabriela> well just 2 months
[02:43] <mindstate> gabriela: maybe try turning the power management on
[02:44] <linux_> i didn't use any when i installed xubuntu
[02:44] <Lanlost_> if I disable that then I have no internet connection.. and no way to reinstall it
[02:44] <gabriela> how do you do that?
[02:44] <linux_> ubuntu has the drivers to connect to any ethernet
[02:44] <pbureau> Eroick, personally I dont do AMD (no flaming please), so I vote for # 1
[02:44] <Lanlost_> I need to use wireless linux_
[02:44] <mindstate> gabriela: what are you using?
[02:44] <linux_> no need to have the GUI and all (which is the network manager package)
[02:44] <shmeelAway> like, when i have something on my desktop, and i want to change something in it's properties
[02:44] <linux_> oh, didn't know that lanlost
[02:44] <shmeelAway> idk how, i know there are sudo commands out there to do it, but i don't know them and i have to surf the web for like 10 minutes
[02:44] <Lanlost_> all I am trying to do is use ra0 as my internet connection and use eth for a local area connection.
[02:44] <gabriela> to mindstate i use an acer aspire 1640
[02:44] <linux_> i don't think there are many alternatives, i know there is a way to do it from command line, i have done it before from there without the network manager
[02:45] <Lanlost_> If I plug in a cable to eth0 .. then my ra0 stops working.
[02:45] <jrib> shmeelAway: if it is on your desktop it should be owned by your user, just right click on it
[02:45] <mindstate> gabriela: i meant what operating system?
[02:45] <Amenemhet> shmeelaway...if it is a fresh install there is no root password set, do that first
[02:45] <shmeelAway> i already have it
[02:45] <gabriela> mindstate ubuntu
[02:45] <Amenemhet> can you su -?
[02:45] <Flannel> Amenemhet, shmeelAway, there's no need/reason to set a root password, for 99.9% of users
[02:45] <linux_> in ubuntu, amenemhet, you can su
[02:45] <Lanlost_> I dont see why there is no way to just select ra0 as my internet connection and use eth0 as a local area connection.. it shouldn't be too hard.
[02:45] <mindstate> gabriela: goto system --> preferences --> power management
[02:45] <Lanlost_> no one knows how to do it though.
[02:45] <mindstate> gabriela: im not sure if that will help you but its worth a shot
[02:46] <gabriela> ok llet me try it
[02:46] <shmeelAway> i just want to make some things a bit easier, i don't do things unless i know what i'm doing w/ the root
[02:46] <Amenemhet> in 6.10 you have to set a root pass, before you can do root changes i beleive
[02:46] <jrib> !sudo | Amenemhet
[02:46] <ubotu> Amenemhet: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:46] <farruinn> Amenemhet: root changes? like what?
[02:46] <linux_> lanlost_, try searching configure ubuntu terminal wireless in google maybe
[02:47] <Flannel> Amenemhet: no youdon't.  Ubuntu doesn't use/require the root account
[02:47] <Amenemhet> i couldnt apt, couldnt set wireless, without bein 'priveledged', so i set a pass for root and away
[02:48] <jrib> shmeelAway: my point is you should not be forced to do things as root on a regular basis if you are just doing things as a normal user.  If you do for some reason, then something is wrong
[02:48] <xsystemx> anyone know how to get VNC working so I can remotely connect with firefox instead of using vncviewer ?
[02:48] <farruinn> Amenemhet: you can become priveledged by running the command with sudo, or opening a root shell with sudo -i
[02:48] <dyrne> someone familiar with vpnc? its not setting my default route to the tunnel.. its doing everything right but setting up routing. anyone else ran into this
[02:48] <farruinn> Lanlost_: have you tried just apt-get remove network-manager?
[02:48] <gabriela> how to improve battery life in my father nothebook
[02:48] <shmeelAway> jrib, i understand, i don't use it often, but it's just nice to have around
[02:48] <linux_> xsystemx, try vncserver --help (there is a web option there)
[02:48] <linux_> lanlost, i have installed network-manager from apt-get
[02:48] <Amenemhet> ah, well i did a sudo -
[02:48] <linux_> removeing should be the same
[02:48] <xsystemx> kk
[02:49] <marshall> whats the command to unmount a partition again?
[02:49] <Amenemhet> umount
[02:49] <Nutubuntu> umount
[02:49] <farruinn> Amenemhet: "sudo -" and "sudo -i" are basically the same except that obviously in the first case you need a root passwd and the second an admin pass
[02:49] <Amenemhet> ahhh ty
[02:49] <marshall> lol thanks Amenemhet and nutu
[02:49] <marshall> Nutubuntu
[02:49] <Nutubuntu> : )
[02:50] <Eroick> pbureau: can I message you please?
[02:50] <jrib> shmeelAway: have what around exactly?  I'm not sure what you are looking for?  Can you give an example scenario?
[02:50] <gabriela> hello someone to helpme with battery life with notebook?
[02:50] <gabriela> thanks
[02:50] <Catachan__> okay, so, can some one help me with the installation?
[02:50] <Amenemhet> gabriella: what kind?
[02:50] <pbureau> Eroick, sure or come to #helpya
[02:50] <gabriela> it drain too fast
[02:51] <Catachan__> if you think you can help, I would appreciate if we could do a PM or Direct chat, (I forget what it is called)
[02:51] <shmeelAway> idk, it just pops up from time to time that i need to run something as root, but i dont' know how, and it's very frustrating having to search for it on the internet  or ask ppl every time
[02:51] <gabriela> AMenemhet is an acer aspire 1640
[02:51] <farruinn> shmeelAway: wait, you mean graphical apps?
[02:51] <Amenemhet> :(
[02:52] <gabriela> Amenemhet: what does that mean? you cant helpme?
[02:52] <shmeelAway> just some stuff in general, idk specific ones atm. i used to have the script, and once in a while it was just useful using
[02:52] <mindstate> lol
[02:52] <ubuntu_> hi everyone
[02:52] <mindstate> gabriela: why dont u call acer?
[02:52] <Lanlost_> well apparently this is impossible..
[02:52] <Lanlost_> no one seems to know how to figure out what ethernet card I have
[02:52] <gabriela> what acer can do?
[02:52] <Amenemhet> if it runs down fast it means it is on its last legs usually
[02:52] <jrib> shmeelAway: that's pretty vague
[02:52] <ubuntu_> does anyone know how to setup a wireless usb
[02:52] <mindstate> gabriela: well its their laptop. that'd be a nice place to start
[02:52] <farruinn> shmeelAway: you're making it hard for anyone to help you ;)
[02:52] <entel> ( apt-get -f install ) says "segmentation fault" whats it is?
[02:52] <gabriela> is just the problem with ubuntu
[02:52] <ubuntu_> I'm on a different computer to use this help
[02:53] <gabriela> with xp its ok
[02:53] <shmeelAway> i know, like i said i don't do it often, and atm i don't have a specific problem i'm trying to solve
[02:53] <jrib> shmeelAway: for example, do you know how to run "gedit" as root to edit a system configuration file?
[02:53] <Amenemhet> and gabriella: what type of battery?
[02:53] <gabriela> but in ubuntu no
[02:53] <shmeelAway> gedit i know how to do
[02:53] <jmichaelx>  if anyone could help , it would be greatly appreciated.... last night kaffeine crashed while playing a video... since then kaffeine crashes when using the xine engine. also, programs like democracyplayer and amarok also crash. thanks in advance for the assistance
[02:53] <mnoir> shmeelAway: doesn't sount like a root problem at all - it sounds like a unix-knowledge issue.  that takes time
[02:53] <Amenemhet> hmmm, that is odd
[02:53] <mindstate> ask Pelo lol
[02:54] <shmeelAway> i know, mnoir, i don't have too deep knowledge, so for some stuff i just want to make it a bit easier
[02:54] <cheeseboy16> can you install stuff on Browser Appliance?
[02:54] <Pelo> If I should decide to change distro would my settings from my home folder restore all my stuff on my new distro just as if I was resinstalling my original one ?
[02:54] <Amenemhet> gabriella: i noticed some loss as well, xp, says aprox 4 hrs per charge, ubuntu says 3
[02:54] <gabriela> but for me like 20 mins
[02:54] <gabriela> or less
[02:54] <mister_roboto> what are the causes for a module to be held back. latest dist-upgrade simply says these modules have been held back: linux-image-386 linux-restricted-modules-386
[02:54] <mnoir> shmeelAway: monkeying with the ubuntu root strategy (use of sudo only) would not make anything easire
[02:54] <Amenemhet> but not as drastic
[02:54] <macsim> hi, I have this error when I try to edit a file in eclipse: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4801
[02:54] <macsim> any idea ?
[02:54] <Flannel> Pelo: if your home has it's own partition, then yeah, you can just install around your hoome folder (just mount it, don't format it) and you'll keep everyting in it
[02:54] <mister_roboto> errr that was supposed to be a question :)
[02:54] <Amenemhet> is that what the gui says or reality?
[02:54] <jrib> mister_roboto: server-side packaging bug, it's being worked on
[02:55] <gabriela> actually inthis  moment it says that no battery is present
[02:55] <gabriela> wh?
[02:55] <gabriela> why??
[02:55] <shmeelAway> there are a lot of sudo commands that i just don't know, and just running the thing as root is much easier
[02:55] <mister_roboto> thx jrib
[02:55] <cheeseboy16> can you install stuff on Browser Appliance?
[02:55] <xsystemx> how can i find out if tightvnc is installed?
[02:55] <Skuller> hello...i am using 6.06 and i am able to access 1 of my NTFS partitions which has XP on it....i also have 2 other NTFS partitions wich i can SEE but cannot access in ubuntu....can anyone please help?
[02:55] <Flannel> shmeelAway: "sudo commands"  don't exist.  Running as root is the same thing as prepending sudo.  Sudo just runs the commands as root.
[02:55] <mnoir> jrib - you  figure the kernel pkg update glitch should make it into the channel header?
[02:55] <ubuntu_> can anyone please help me
[02:55] <farruinn> shmeelAway: if that's the case, then by running a root shell all the time you're completely subverting the purpose of disabling root in the first place
[02:55] <Amenemhet> hmmm, what happens when you unplug it?
[02:55] <shmeelAway> that's what i meant lol
[02:55] <entel> ( apt-get -f install ) says "segmentation fault" whats it is?
[02:55] <gabriela> let me see it
[02:55] <Pelo> thanks Flannel
[02:56] <farruinn> shmeelAway: the ubuntu developers decided to take the sudo approach for that very reason
[02:56] <gabriela> stays on
[02:56] <jrib> mnoir: yeah, that would be nice
[02:56] <mnoir> shmeelAway: they are not sudo commands, they are commands.  sudo is a meta command to shift privs
[02:56] <Flannel> shmeelAway: to run as root, you STILL need to know the commands.  It's absolutely NO different.
[02:56] <Catachan__> I would appreciate some assistance with getting the "HLA" (High Level Assembly Language) assmebler running under Ubuntu, here is a link to the install instructions for Linux (http://webster.cs.ucr.edu/AoA/Linux/HTML/HelloWorld.html) you will need to scroll down to a little over half of the page, to get to the linux instructions, if you can help, I would love it
[02:56] <mindstate> lol
[02:56] <gabriela> says that the battery is too low
[02:56] <crimsun> mnoir: which glitch(es)?
[02:56] <shmeelAway> the script let me run stuff as root w/out needing to know specific commands
[02:56] <shmeelAway> -.-
[02:56] <Skuller> hello...i am using 6.06 and i am able to access 1 of my NTFS partitions which has XP on it....i also have 2 other NTFS partitions wich i can SEE but cannot access in ubuntu....can anyone please help?
[02:56] <jrib> shmeelAway: there are no "sudo commands", you just run regular commands with "sudo" before them and that's just like running the command as root
[02:56] <Amenemhet> but is it tho? i mean, could be the gui is wrong
[02:56] <xsystemx> linux_ - how can I tell if tightvnc is installed?
[02:57] <gabriela> dont know
[02:57] <shmeelAway> i know, i meant i don't know all the commands in general
[02:57] <jrib> shmeelAway: and gui apps should be rpeceded with "gksudo" instead of "sudo"
[02:57] <mnoir> crimsun: there some packages that will not update correctly right now - kernel related
[02:57] <gabriela> im just a rookie on linux
[02:57] <gabriela> im experimenting
[02:57] <Amenemhet> in xp i had an older one, it used to tell me 5 mins left but would run for 2 hrs
[02:57] <At0mic_PC> How do you convert a MP3 to MP4?
[02:57] <crimsun> mnoir: which source package(s)?
[02:57] <shmeelAway> alright, i give up lol
[02:57] <gabriela> mine too but in xp
[02:57] <Amenemhet> your doin the best thing then
[02:57] <shmeelAway> k how bout this then
[02:58] <shmeelAway> i want to get my music off my ipod onto my computer
[02:58] <mister_roboto> macsim: what's that gcj stuff mixed in with the sun jvm? is that right? maybe that's the source of the jvm crashing
[02:58] <Amenemhet> maybe the gui in ubunto need to have somethin to compare, is it a new install?
[02:58] <gabriela> im learning
[02:58] <shmeelAway> preferably w/ just rhythymbox
[02:58] <gabriela> yes
[02:58] <Skuller> is anyone free to help me please?
[02:58] <CrakeHunter> hello, how do i install ati graphic drivers for x1800xt series?
[02:58] <gabriela> is new
[02:58] <Nutubuntu> Be well all
[02:58] <Skuller> i am using 6.06 and i am able to access 1 of my NTFS partitions which has XP on it....i also have 2 other NTFS partitions wich i can SEE but cannot access in ubuntu....can anyone please help?
[02:58] <Amenemhet> is the battery old?
[02:58] <mister_roboto> macsim: did you run update-java-alternatives?
[02:59] <jrib> !ipod | shmeelAway
[02:59] <ubotu> shmeelAway: 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
[02:59] <gabriela> it has windows xp and i installed ubuntu
[02:59] <gabriela> no the laptop is new
[02:59] <mister_roboto> macsim: after installing the sun jdk?   if you didn't install jdk, you need it, not the jre
[02:59] <mnoir> crimsun: not  source -binaries.  if you update your sources and attempt to get current, you will see
[02:59] <gabriela> 2 monts from now
[02:59] <macsim> mister_roboto: no I directely change the value of /etc/eclipse/java_home
[02:59] <shmeelAway> ahh, i didn't even look online first, shoot
[02:59] <shmeelAway> k thx
[02:59] <mnoir> crimsun: sorry - i meant repositories
[02:59] <Amenemhet> ok well, i would say that the batt. software needs to see the discharge for a while
[02:59] <oououmny> Skuller it might be a good idea to switch back to xp, shut down properly, and boot linux again :) I'm pretty convinced it will work
[02:59] <shmeelAway> !rockbox
[02:59] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for MP3 players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio.  See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[03:00] <gabriela> then what can i do?
[03:00] <gabriela> is not mine
[03:00] <Amenemhet> let it run down, then recharge
[03:00] <Catachan__> please can I get some help?
[03:00] <macsim> mister_roboto: ok I install jdk
[03:00] <gabriela> if my father laptop
[03:00] <jrib> !ask | Catachan__
[03:00] <ubotu> Catachan__: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:00] <Amenemhet> you might find that it will say 5 mins left for over an hour
[03:00] <oououmny> the NTFS partitions may be "dirty"
[03:00] <gabriela> but he says that is very nice the system but the battery drains too fast
[03:00] <mister_roboto> macsim: first, install the jdk then run update-java-alternatives to make sure all the environment is set properly to run sun's version
[03:00] <crimsun> mnoir: I'm not interested in binaries; I asked specifically for the source package because the bug tracker uses source packages.
[03:01] <Skuller> oououmny: i have already rebooted like a few times.....but it still cannot access those partitions....just so you know those 2 partitions are on a separate 200gb hdd
[03:01] <Amenemhet> ntfs IS dirty...it is windows after all!!! LOL
[03:01] <macsim> mister_roboto: I try this thanks for your help
[03:01] <gabriela> it turned of
[03:01] <Catachan__> Okay, one more time, I need some help with editing the PATH Variables in Ubuntu,
[03:01] <oououmny> =))
[03:01] <gabriela> Amenemhet: it turned off
[03:01] <jrib> Catachan__: system wide or only for your user?
[03:01] <mister_roboto> macsim: all i know is i was able to run Eclipse just fine but I downloaded mine from eclipse.org. I wanted a newer version than was in the repositories
[03:01] <dyrne> could someone using vpn sucessfuly pastebin the output of route?
[03:01] <Catachan__> doesn't matter
[03:01] <Catachan__> jrib doesn't matter
[03:01] <jrib> Catachan__: well /etc/environment is system-wide
[03:01] <Amenemhet> hmmm, i would say the battery is faulty, and I would take it back
[03:02] <Catachan__> right, okay
[03:02] <Amenemhet> especially if it is only 2 months old
[03:02] <gabriela> but why not in xp?
[03:02] <farruinn> Catachan__: you need to add a directory to your PATH?
[03:02] <Amenemhet> ok.....it shut down in linux yes?
[03:02] <Catachan__> jrib, yes, would you like a link so I can show you what I am confused about?
[03:02] <lightcap> argh, why is it possible to compile from source and get apache 2.2 working with svn, but trying to roll your own backports fails miserably when compiling (running tests) for libapache2-svn
[03:02] <gabriela> yes
[03:02] <jrib> Catachan__: sure
[03:02] <Amenemhet> because the battery was too low?
[03:03] <gabriela> i mean only in linux drain too fast
[03:03] <pbureau> Nah I found the batteryu recharge on my laptop is off by like 1 hr as well, it actually stops the charge (need it or not)... I leave the computer off and plug it in and it charges properly the battery.... stupid battery thing dont work properly for my laptop either
[03:03] <gabriela> yeap
[03:03] <Amenemhet> well, try bootin into windows and see what happens
[03:03] <lightcap> I really don't want to go around the damn package management system so I know what's on my system, but I *need* apache 2.2 and SVN running
[03:03] <gabriela> ok
[03:03] <Catachan__> jrib : http://webster.cs.ucr.edu/AoA/Linux/HTML/HelloWorld.html this is the link, the first half of the page details manual install on Windows, the last half begins with linux install
[03:03] <Amenemhet> also windows has a battrey tool to drain the battery, discharge it
[03:03] <shmeelAway> !rockbox
[03:03] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for MP3 players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio.  See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[03:04] <gabriela> how to drain the battery and why??
[03:04] <jrib> Catachan__: what's the question?
[03:04] <Amenemhet> if you boot to windows first , see what it says first ok?
[03:04] <Catachan__> okay, so, it talks about editing the "PATH" in the .bashrc
[03:04] <gabriela> its starting windows
[03:05] <mnoir> lightcap: if you want to inject a custom built pkg back into your pkg mgt, use checkinstall to do the final install of the built package
[03:05] <gabriela> with no problems
[03:05] <Amenemhet> then maybe you can try to drain the battery , so the 'software' will know the battery is really drained, the recharge it
[03:05] <gabriela> let me check what it says about the battery
[03:05] <Catachan__> jrib however, I did not find a line such as described in my .bashrc file
[03:05] <Amenemhet> yes
[03:05] <shmeelAway> any1 use rockbox before? do u suggest i use it for my ipod>
[03:05] <jrib> Catachan__: add it
[03:05] <lightcap> mnoir: I'm not familiar with that...will that just keep tabs on it via dpkg then?
[03:05] <gabriela> it tured off
[03:05] <ardchoille> I know I can use  echo "testing" >> file.txt  to append "testing" to the end of file.txt. But, is it possible to prepend a string to the beginning of a file?
[03:06] <gabriela> no energy in the battery i think
[03:06] <Amenemhet> in windows?
[03:06] <gabriela> windows shoutdown
[03:06] <gabriela> yeap
[03:06] <Catachan__> jrib : I was suggested to go to the /etc/environment and add the path there, so I did
[03:06] <Amenemhet> its the battery
[03:06] <jrib> Catachan__: that will work too
[03:06] <gabriela> no power now
[03:06] <mnoir> lightcap: what it does is make a .deb and install that, during an install event
[03:06] <lightcap> mnoir: I'm also just tripping on why this damn thing won't build...seems like I've backported all the needed dependencies...
[03:06] <gabriela> what do you mean change the battery?
[03:06] <Amenemhet> take it back
[03:06] <Tom_> Quick question: Typically, how big would a /boot partition need to be for grub?
[03:06] <mnoir> lightcap: backporting is an adventure....
[03:06] <lightcap> mnoir: cool, I'll look into that...that'd have saved me oh, 6 hours today ;-)
[03:07] <lightcap> mnoir: always, but this time is a particular bitch.
[03:07] <mnoir> lightcap: the nice thing is that you don't need to know how to construct the .deb
[03:07] <lightcap> right
[03:07] <mnoir> lightcap: it is in the repositories :)
[03:07] <lightcap> mnoir: well, shit, now I've gotta go undo all my changes I did today
[03:07] <jrib> Catachan__: note that that probably only gets sourced when you login.  So it won't affect your current environment.  You can just "source /etc/environment" though
[03:07] <K-Rich> how come i cant get rid of sanba and rreinstall it?
[03:08] <Catachan__> jrib : however, at the next bullet, it talks about adding four lines of code for defining and exporting the variables that hla uses
[03:08] <macsim> mister_roboto: It's not a problem from jdk, it's a bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=155404
[03:08] <lightcap> mnoir: how have I not known about checkinstall...that's brilliant!
[03:08] <lightcap> mnoir: thanks for pointing that little gem out!
[03:09] <mnoir> lightcap: i didn't know about it myself until like 4 minths ago :)
[03:09] <lightcap> ha ha
[03:09] <farruinn> Catachan__: so what's the problem?
[03:09] <ardchoille> lightcap: checkinstall doesn't always work ;)
[03:09] <jrib> Catachan__: well if it only needs that for compilation, you don't need to have those variables set all the time.  Just type them directly into your shell
[03:09] <mnoir> lightcap: i HAVE had it fail
[03:09] <mnoir> lightcap: occasionally
[03:09] <lightcap> ardchoille: well either does building your own backports from source ;-)
[03:09] <Catachan__> jrib : it says to add them to .bashrc, but I don't know if I should add them there, or if they belong in the environment
[03:09] <Catachan__> jrib: okay,
[03:09] <ardchoille> lightcap: lol
[03:10] <K-Rich> i have a mangina
[03:10] <lightcap> it's going to be a long night :)
[03:10] <farruinn> Catachan__, jrib: I think you'll need that in .bashrc
[03:10] <Amenemhet> lol oh yes
[03:10] <jrib> Catachan__: I misread, HLA is a compiler so it needs those set when you compile with it.  just add those 4 lines to your .bashrc
[03:10] <mnoir> Catachan__: they will not automatically GET to the 'environment' unless they are in your .bashrc
[03:10] <pbureau> !libdvdcss

[03:11] <unikon> anyone using a all in one printer,flatbed scanner,copier  with Xubuntu Dapper

[03:11] <K-Rich> sdadda
[03:11] <jrib> !es | gabriela
[03:11] <Catachan__> jrib, okay, so, I need to add them to the .bashrc, does it matter where I add them?
[03:11] <ubotu> gabriela: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[03:11] <jrib> Catachan__: no
[03:11] <stormy|> How can i update my kernel (LTS 6.06) without moving up from Dapper to Edgy?
[03:11] <Catachan__> jrib, so just at the end of the file is a good thing?
[03:12] <Catachan__> okay
[03:12] <Catachan__> cool
[03:12] <jrib> Catachan__: yep, "source ~/.bashrc" afterwards so you don't need to close your terminala nd open it again
[03:12] <ardchoille> stormy|: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:12] <mnoir> stormy|: custom building - why do you ask?
[03:12] <stormy|> ardchoille, that won't upgrade from Dapper to Edgy will it? I'm on x64, I tried edgy before.. it was buggy.. I'd rather stick with 6.06LTS if possible
[03:13] <mindstate> is there anyway i could repartition my drive to add some more space on it
[03:13] <beg1689> question
[03:13] <stormy|> beg1689, you dont gotta ask to ask a question :)
[03:13] <beg1689> is there more space on it?
[03:13] <ardchoille> stormy|: 2.6.15-27 is the latest you're gonna get in Dapper unless you install/build your own.
[03:13] <beg1689> you cant "add" space
[03:13] <linuxor> hello .. is there P2M for linux ?????
[03:13] <stormy|> hm, okay, thanks
[03:13] <farruinn> stormy|: what do you need a newer kernel for anyway?
[03:13] <beg1689> thats what iw as about to ask
[03:13] <Squig> linuxor: have you tried running it under wine?
[03:13] <ardchoille> stormy|: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade only upgrade all apps, to upgrade to Edgy with that, you have to alter sources.list. No, it won't upgrade to Edgy.
[03:14] <Tom_> Quick question: Typically, how big would a /boot partition need to be for grub?
[03:14] <linuxor> Squig: no
[03:14] <CrakeHunter> hi, i did a "fglrxinfo" in the console - it says:  Xlib: extension Xfree86-DRI missin gon display :0.0
[03:14] <CrakeHunter> i ve jsut installed the ati drivers via apt-get
[03:14] <beg1689> apt wants me to upgrade from 2.6.17.10 to 2.16.17.11, what shte difference?
[03:14] <stormy|> I am trying to get a pcHDTV 5500 tuner card working.. it doesn't detect a signal on the cable, although I have confirmed that the cable works. I am attempting to see if the kernel is the problem... (with drivers or something)
[03:15] <CrakeHunter> what do i have to do?
[03:15] <beg1689> oh, and why doesnt ubuntu use the newest kernels?
[03:15] <jrib> beg1689: aptitude changelog NAME_OF_PACKAGE
[03:15] <ardchoille> beg1689: The diff is an updated kernel. Ubuntu doesn't update apps after the official release.. only security fixes and bux fixes.
[03:16] <Squig> linuxor: you might want to try it under wine (www.winehq.org) and see if it runs well for you, suposedly P2M v 1.6 build 8 worked almost perfectly for Fendora Core 4
[03:16] <stormy|> ardchoille, you have any idea what the problem could be?
[03:16] <beg1689> there is not changelog
[03:17] <linuxor> Squig: thx man ,I ll try it
[03:17] <ardchoille> stormy|: No, I've never messed in that before. You might try the forums or wiki.
[03:17] <stormy|> okay, thanks.
[03:17] <Squig> linuxor: If you want, i can quickly try and see if it works for me
[03:17] <fr500> does avahi work for you people on edgy out of the box?
[03:17] <buddy> x] 
[03:18] <GMWeezel> Whenever I tell something to print, nothing ever happens. The job just stays in the list.
[03:18] <jrib> beg1689: probably takes a bit to get uploaded
[03:18] <beg1689> i found one
[03:18] <bucketfan99> hey guys
[03:18] <jrib> beg1689: download the source packages and read the changelog or run diff :)
[03:18] <cheeseboy16> whats the best music player for ubuntu?
[03:18] <bucketfan99> so im trying to install ubunutu on this new mobo i got
[03:18] <beg1689> all it says is ABI bump i dont know what that is
[03:18] <bucketfan99> 6.10 just fails to even load the installer
[03:18] <pbureau> GMWeezel, try using the web interface for CUPS, open a browser and type http://localhost:631/
[03:18] <linuxor> Squig : u mean installing p2m with wine and executing it also with wine ??
[03:18] <bucketfan99> fiesty loads the installer but then can't find any HDs
[03:18] <bucketfan99> i think b/c its SATA
[03:19] <fr500> cheeseboy16: banshee maybe, or bmpx
[03:19] <fr500> cheeseboy16: all depends on taste
[03:19] <mindstate> cheeseboy16: i like xmms

[03:19] <Squig> linuxor: Yes, but i just tried installing it with wine, it installed fine but won't run, i'll try messing around with it for about a minute or two
[03:20] <DARKGuy> Hm, could anybody tell me if there has been a recent update for the main xorg package?
[03:20] <bucketfan99> Ok. trying again.  How do i get the installer to load in a custom module or custom kernel in order to get my recent intel mobo to work ?
[03:20] <linuxor> Squig : ok i'm waiting thx a lot
[03:20] <wasabi_> bucketfan99: Read the changelog.
[03:20] <fr500> bucketfan99: what about the alternate instaler
[03:20] <cheeseboy16> mindstate, is that like winamp?
[03:20] <wasabi_> bucketfan99: Sorry, meant to say that to DARKGuy
[03:20] <wasabi_> DARKGuy: Read the changelog. ;)
[03:21] <jrib> bucketfan99: what mobo?
[03:21] <Squig> linuxor: no problem, i don't have anything better to do
[03:21] <bucketfan99> fr500 which ? usb ? or
[03:21] <mindstate> cheeseboy16: they've got a winamp skin for it :)
[03:21] <GMWeezel> pbureau: Still no luck with the printer; not exactly sure what you want me to do.
[03:21] <mindstate> cheeseboy16: its light-weight
[03:21] <DARKGuy> wasabi_: Where could I find it? or what one should I read? xD
[03:21] <bucketfan99> intel dq965g

[03:21] <wasabi_> DARKGuy: /usr/share/docs/xserver-xorg/
[03:21] <wasabi_> DARKGuy: Every package has a similar directory.
[03:21] <fr500> bucketfan99: no the alternate cd
[03:21] <pbureau> GMWeezel,  do you see it installed there? how is it connected to pc btw?
[03:21] <bucketfan99> fr500 perhaps i don't know of said CD
[03:21] <fr500> cheeseboy16: but xmms is quite old afaik
[03:21] <GMWeezel> pbureau: I see it installed; it's a USB printer.
[03:22] <pbureau> GMWeezel, what kind of printer is it ?
[03:22] <colordeaf> Anyone want to tackle my wireless issue?  I can't set the SSID.
[03:22] <DARKGuy> wasabi_: I see. It's gzipped - should I sudo gunzip it?
[03:22] <fr500> colordeaf: just ask :p
[03:22] <wasabi_> sure.

[03:23] <fr500> colordeaf: doesn't sudo iwconfig wifi0 essid "essid" work?
[03:23] <eNons3nse> problems with iPodder.  i've been using it for many months and it's always running in the background.  i just noticed that it wasn't running for some reason and when i try to open it it crashes almostly instantly after the splash window comes up.
[03:23] <xtknight> pbureau:  ppd you mean
[03:23] <DARKGuy> Okay, thanks wasabi_ ^^
[03:23] <xtknight> GMWeezel: ppd is just a printer driver for cups
[03:23] <colordeaf> fr500: no sir.. Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" ..
[03:23] <GMWeezel> pbureau: Where do I get it?
[03:23] <fr500> colordeaf: weird
[03:23] <fr500> brb
[03:23] <pbureau> GM_Debian, the lexmark printer stock driver dont work well, do a search for PDD and your printer name of google, remove the printer from the CUPS interface, and reinstall it when it asks for type of printer or click here for custom PDD, click on broswe and point to the PDD file (driver for printer) and it should work
[03:24] <pbureau> xtknight, right PPD... opps dislectic
[03:24] <DARKGuy> eNons3nse: I've never used ipodder, but can you run it in the terminal? maybe you'll get some error messages there that'll help you debug the problem
[03:24] <method|> how do i restart alsa in ubuntu?
[03:24] <sanddrag> is there a way to install just the Kubuntu desktop without the like 500 kthis kthat programs?
[03:24] <wasabi_> method|: One doesn't restart alsa. It's just a kernel module for your specific device.
[03:25] <eNons3nse> DARKGuy: one sec
[03:25] <method|> you can restart alsa i've done it before
[03:25] <unikon> sanddrag just uninstall whatever you dont want
[03:25] <wasabi_> method|: You can remove your driver and reload it.
[03:25] <wasabi_> modprobe -r and modprobe.
[03:25] <eNons3nse> DARKGuy: UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xa7 in position 38: unexpected code byte
[03:26] <pbureau> colordeaf,  did you see my private message ?
[03:27] <GMWeezel> pbureau: I didn't see your reply at first; you typed GM_Debian
[03:27] <DARKGuy> eNons3nse: No clue here. Maybe it's trying to open a corrupted file (or a file which was added to the playlist? (if there is one))
[03:27] <pbureau> GMWeezel, sorry.. did not tab enough time...lol do you understand what I said though ?
[03:27] <dyrne> no one is using vpnc? *pleads*
[03:27] <DARKGuy> eNons3nse: either way, now you got something to search for and get help with - the more info the better o.o;
[03:27] <GMWeezel> pbureau: yea
[03:27] <GMWeezel> pbureau: What I.M. client are you using? That would be convenient.
[03:28] <Dante123> hi all.....was downloading an ISO and after three different download attempts from different mirrors....I do not get the official ISO.....any ideas what might be the problem?  Any suggestions?  DL at 3 am?
[03:28] <dyrne> or any old ipsec tunnel :)
[03:28] <Dante123> I do not get a matching md5sum I mean...
[03:28] <pbureau> GMWeezel, as in messengers? I dont... I am here ;)
[03:29] <pbureau> GMWeezel, you can visit me on #helpya though :) if you like
[03:29] <Squig> linuxor: Hmmm... i'm still working on it, it looks like that you need some extra dll files that i'm trying to find right now.  Also, when i was looking I saw that there is a version of it called OpenP2M that runs on java, so you can run it on linux http://www.glauberpires.com.br/p2m/english/
[03:29] <GMWeezel> pbureau: I'm lost but okay.
[03:29] <plamoni> I'm having a stupid problem, I'm not sure if this is an ubuntu thing or what... basically, I'm trying to do a chmod +s on a file, and even if i sudo the command, i get an "operation not permitted"... any ideas what's going on here?
[03:29] <loca|host> My CPU Fans wont stop running with Ubuntu ;( , it does with wondows
[03:29] <dyrne> Dante123: torrent download would be slower but might work for you
[03:29] <GMWeezel> pbureau: thanks though; found it.
[03:29] <pbureau> :)
[03:31] <robert__> Quick question, anyone know where theres a hardware compatibility list fur Ubuntu? I can't seem to find on on the website
[03:31] <DARKGuy> !hardware
[03:31] <ubotu> For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:31] <DARKGuy> yay
[03:32] <nevron> is there anyone that is using a sblive 24 bit external soundcard?
[03:32] <robert__> Thank you, I at least know where to ask
[03:32] <DARKGuy> robert__: welcome ^^
[03:32] <plamoni> still looking for an answer....
[03:32] <beg1689> hmm they should add an Alienware category
[03:32] <beg1689> 100% compatible
[03:32] <LostLaowai> Hey all. I also have a "quick" question. I am very new to Ubuntu (and Linux) ... just wondering if the only way to connect to the net with a standard ADSL/Broadband connection is through the shell-like application.. no quick click/connect/done option?
[03:33] <beg1689> theres a config
[03:33] <wasabi_> LostLaowai: PPPoE?
[03:34] <LostLaowai> Yeah... not sure what the PPPoE means... I'm a Windows user, and used to the "create new connection" ease.
[03:34] <loca|host> My CPU Fans wont stop running with Debian ;( , it does with wondows
[03:34] <nevron> peer to peer over ethernet
[03:34] <LostLaowai> Ah.
[03:34] <wasabi_> PPP: point to point tunneling protocol
[03:34] <wasabi_> over ethernet.
[03:34] <cables> loca|host, this isn't a debian support channel. Try #debian
[03:34] <miranda82> hey guys
[03:34] <wasabi_> (not peer to peer)
[03:34] <bruenig> !hi | miranda82
[03:34] <ubotu> miranda82: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:34] <wasabi_> LostLaowai: Some ADSL connections make you authenticate before you can connect.
[03:34] <nevron> ok wasabi sorry that was what i knew thank you for correcting me
[03:34] <cables> nevron, LostLaowai, it's actually point to point protocol over ethernet
[03:34] <LiENUS> how do i add another ip addres to a network interface
[03:35] <wasabi_> By using PPP, which is a basic tunneling protocol, over raw ethernet. PPP lets them prompt you with a password.
[03:35] <miranda82> how can i get gaim back to the tray? it's suddenly gone...
[03:35] <wasabi_> It's an odd layering of some protocols. It's easier to get a router that does it for you.
[03:35] <plamoni> ifconfig <network adaptor name> xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[03:35] <wasabi_> THen use plain DHCP on the PC>
[03:35] <bruenig> miranda82, restart it?
[03:35] <pirate-king> is there a reason someone could talk on sype but not surf on the internet
[03:35] <miranda82> bruenig, did it, and restarte ubuntu also
[03:35] <cables> pirate
[03:35] <beg1689> yes
[03:35] <wasabi_> pirate-king: ABout 40 possible reasons.
[03:35] <bruenig> miranda82, does anything else open in the tray?
[03:35] <beg1689> DNS problem is one of them
[03:35] <miranda82> bruenig, yes, xchat shows
[03:35] <pirate-king> like?
[03:36] <cables> pirate-king, sorry 'bout that...

[03:36] <ahave> i popped in a pcmcia network card and ubuntu crashed... was this a 'nono'?
[03:36] <pirate-king> not offended

[03:36] <bruenig> miranda82, something I might try just for kicks is to right click on the tray, and remove it from the panel, then right click on the panel and add it again.
[03:36] <LostLaowai> So... not clear on that... there's no simple "new connection" (and create a quick connect icon on the desktop) function with Ubuntu?
[03:36] <pirate-king> lol
[03:36] <pirate-king> np
[03:37] <miranda82> bruenig, also tried.. and does not work
[03:37] <bruenig> ah
[03:37] <bruenig> miranda82, there is no logical reason I can think of as to why it wouldn't open in the tray
[03:37] <sinisterguy> which of the debian/ubuntu packages for dvdstyler will work with edgy

[03:38] <bruenig> miranda82, if you don't mind adding your accounts again, you can delete the gaim config directory and have it remake, that might work
[03:38] <Dante123> what i am trying to dl says (torrent temporarily unavailable) so I guess that is not an option....
[03:38] <LostLaowai> if I am running directly to a ADSL modem, I need to use the PPPoE shell-like thing?
[03:38] <kurumin> any girl want to chat?
[03:38] <miranda82> let me try...
[03:38] <cables> theherbalizer, if you want info for yourself, use /msg ubotu <whatever> rather than doing it in the channel

[03:38] <Dante123> hi all.....was downloading an ISO and after three different download attempts from different mirrors....I do not get the official ISO.....any ideas what might be the problem? Any suggestions? DL at 3 am?

[03:43] <bruenig> cables, lists their names and says help
[03:43] <gyaresu|work> nauritus: Mount a flash drive you mean. Like USB?
[03:43] <nauritus> gyaresu|work: yeah
[03:43] <gyaresu|work> nauritus: 'dmesg'
[03:43] <nevron> i searched the forums noone seems to have the sound blaster live 24 bit external soudncard working :(
[03:43] <cables> bruenig, just messages them in the channel?
[03:43] <nauritus> gyaresu|work: is sn not showing up automatically
[03:43] <rp3> when I run a .wmv in totem I get sound but no video?  I think I have the codecs as I don't get an error message anymore?  IDeas?
[03:43] <nauritus> gyaresu|work: it's there
[03:43] <nauritus> I've already dmesg
[03:43] <bruenig> cables, and seeing as a lot of irc clients will light up or alert when your name is said, one generally shows up
[03:43] <cables> rp3, have you tried VLC?
[03:43] <cables> bruenig, that makes sense
[03:43] <rp3> nope, better?
[03:44] <Borzen__> hay will my keybord and mouse "hybernate" and not wake up if I dont install the drivers
[03:44] <cables> rp3, works for me... sudo aptitude install vlc
[03:44] <gyaresu|work> nauritus: find the /dev/sda1 or whatever. Then you can 'sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/somewhere -o uid=1000,gid=1000'
[03:44] <gop> hey I have a ati radeon tv out

[03:44] <cables> Borzen__, what drivers? Nvidia drivers tend to break hibernate and suspend...
[03:44] <cables> pirate-king, I think I have that...
[03:45] <gyaresu|work> nauritus: then you can write to it as your normal user. I include a line like that in fstab with the extra option 'user' so that I can just mount it anytime without hassle.
[03:45] <rp3> ok grabbing it now, will give it a try
[03:45] <Borzen__> No it still dose it
[03:45] <gyaresu|work> nauritus: it's formated is it?
[03:45] <bruenig> rp3, if you want it to play in totem, you will probably need to install totem-xine
[03:45] <gop> I have radeon 9500
[03:45] <pirate-king> ok Im running on an inspiron 8600 and running the beta drivers
[03:45] <bruenig> rp3, and all of that stuff on the restricted page

[03:45] <cables> pirate-king, can't help you with the beta drivers...
[03:45] <pirate-king> cause when I installed the other driver
[03:45] <_Andrew> Anyone know why?
[03:45] <ahave> are there any VNC apps that are cross platform compatible? windowsXP & linux?

[03:47] <nauritus> gyaresu|work: ti it tells me I've gotta specify the fylesystem type, hi this is a MP3 so probably fat32
[03:47] <cables> pirate-king, no... none of that
[03:47] <Borzen__> Not for mouse and keybord?
[03:47] <forQed> Anyone have advice getting an external USB drive to work with a VMware Guest of Windows XP?
[03:47] <pirate-king> hmmm
[03:47] <bruenig> Borzen__, no not for anything but wireless and even then it is a bit of a stretch usually
[03:47] <wasabi_> forQed: should just be selectable from the menu and work
[03:47] <Borzen__> Well how do i fix my mouse and keybord
[03:48] <guest_> how about printing from guest os
[03:48] <cables> ahave, to configure the server, go to System>Preferences>Remote Desktop. To use the viewer, either run "vncviewer SERVERADDRESS" or go to Applications>Internet>Terminal Server Client and select VNC as the protocol

[03:54] <jrib> Catachan__: sure
[03:54] <Raynjamin> Does anyone have any time to answer a question?
[03:54] <Catachan__> jrib, the environment file reads:     PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games"
[03:54] <linux_> raynjamin, try me
[03:55] <jrib> Catachan__: where did you add the hal stuff?
[03:55] <Catachan__> jrib, I added it to the .bashrc
[03:55] <Catachan__> file
[03:55] <jrib> Catachan__: paste taht line
[03:55] <Catachan__> okay
[03:55] <Raynjamin> Allroighty. So.. when I attempt to install edgy (using the liveCD I presume), after it loads the splash screen, the screen goes blank
[03:55] <Raynjamin> Like it's going to the Install gui.
[03:55] <DARKGuy> Anybody here uses Eterm? I try "--font-fx outline white" and it says "Eterm:  Error:  Syntax error in the font effects specified on the command line." :(
[03:55] <Raynjamin> But it just stays blank.
[03:55] <linux_> im having the same trouble right now raynjamin
[03:55] <Catachan__> jrib:   "PATH=$DBROOT/bin:$DBROOT/pgm:/usr/hla:$PATH"
[03:56] <Catachan__> jrib, this may be elementary, but should I delete the ""?
[03:56] <Raynjamin> Well dang. :o
[03:56] <jrib> Catachan__: what is DBROOT?
[03:56] <linux_> the solution is to use the alternative CD because the refresh rate can't be changed
[03:56] <linux_> i am guessing raynjamin you are using a 4 MB video card and old monitor?
[03:56] <Raynjamin> No.. using x800XL .
[03:56] <Raynjamin> Not sure on the age of hte monitor.
[03:56] <Raynjamin> 19" CRT. :x.
[03:56] <linux_> i just had that problem about an hour ago
[03:56] <linux_> mines a 16" old monitor
[03:57] <Catachan__> jrib,  To be honest, I was hoping that I would not need to edit the code line, but looks like I will need to, I figure that DBROOT is nonexistant on my machine
[03:57] <linux_> CRT is recent (>2000)
[03:57] <Catachan__> jrib, I am gonna try that now
[03:57] <Catachan__> lol
[03:57] <linux_> raynjamin, u tried the alt cd?
[03:57] <XiXaQ> When I have two connected nics. How do I tell Ubuntu which one should be used for internet?
[03:57] <Raynjamin> No I haven't tried the alternate CD.
[03:57] <Raynjamin> Perhaps I'll go download that and get back to you.
[03:58] <mackinac> i want a greyscale monitor
[03:58] <Scunizi> Anyone know how to turn highlighting back on in Oo Writer to edit? Mine will only move the cursor around without highlighting.
[03:58] <linux_> i just downloaded it and will try it out shortly as it burns
[03:58] <DARKGuy> mackinac: I'd give you mine if you'd give me a color one XD
[04:00] <Raynjamin> k
[04:00] <eldowan> is ubuntu actually merging with linspire?
[04:00] <mackinac> DARKGuy, ok!
[04:01] <unikon> eldowan whered the heck you here that
[04:01] <ardchoille> eldowan: I don't think "merging" is the proper term, but there is a deal in the works for Ubuntu 7.04
[04:01] <loca|host> anyone can help me ? my CPU Fan wont stop with Ubuntu, it does with Windows ;(
[04:01] <Catachan__> jrib, okay, so, I ran through removing the things I thought might be wrong with it, can you help me with the proper formatting for the line of code I need to have there?
[04:01] <DARKGuy> mackinac: lol!... uh, was that for real? o,o; I think I could anyways, buuuut from Venezuela to where you live, it's going to be expensiver than just get one from a pawn shop x)
[04:01] <jrib> Catachan__: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[04:01] <ardchoille> eldowan: It seems that the CNR technology from Linspire will be added to Feisty when it's released.
[04:01] <eldowan> unikon: http://www.desktoplinux.com/news/NS7103672739.html
[04:02] <zero88> Does anybody know of a web vulnerability scanner in the respitories???
[04:02] <blanky> eldowan: learn how to read dude...
[04:02] <blanky> eldowan: there's no frickin merge
[04:02] <blanky> eldowan: it just says they're going to use CNR in ubuntu
[04:02] <ardchoille> eldowan: I may be wrong, "merging" may be the correct term.
[04:02] <lightcap> ardchoille: how does checkinstall deal with dependencies...say I use it for apache, how will dpkg know that I've got an equivalent package for apache?
[04:02] <Toma-> zero88: i think there is one
[04:02] <blanky> ardchoille: that's what he initially said, plus, it's wrong
[04:02] <nopcode> hey
[04:02] <eldowan> blanky: I can read fine thank you.
[04:02] <zero88> toma- would you know what it would be called?
[04:02] <nopcode> i'm trying to install xubuntu on my fakeraid but it doesnt work
[04:03] <Toma-> ill have a look
[04:03] <blanky> eldowan: if you could you wouldn't have said that
[04:03] <ardchoille> lightcap: I wouldn't use checkinstall to build a deb for a complex app.
[04:03] <nopcode> the partitioner shows the two separate hdds instead
[04:03] <Thehound666> Hello, I have a huge problem with Kubuntu but got disconnected there and could not get any answers
[04:03] <Thehound666> very urgent
[04:03] <blanky> eldowan: they are just using the CNR technology in ubuntu, they're not mergine, there wont be no 'linbuntu'
[04:03] <zero88> toma- oh ok,if you find out what one jsut let me know
[04:03] <eldowan> blanky: if I couldn't read I wouldn't be here now.
[04:03] <blanky> !offtopic | eldowan
[04:03] <ubotu> eldowan: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:03] <Squig> linuxor: are you still there?
[04:03] <lightcap> ardchoille: argh.  How can I get apache 2.2 with svn on edgy then? my self rolled backports just won't get there...
[04:03] <eldowan> blanky: I don't understand how asking a question about ubuntu is off topic
[04:03] <ardchoille> lightcap: I have no idea, I do't use Edgy.
[04:04] <blanky> eldowan: this is for support
[04:04] <Thehound666> I tried to install the fglrx drivers and now can't start xserver or get into my desktop
[04:04] <mackinac> DARKGuy, yes... i was going to say "as long as you pay the shipping or come to my house" ;)  ... its really greyscale, or is it monochrome?
[04:04] <Thehound666> locked out
[04:04] <blanky> eldowan: and, I just talked about what you're asking about 10 minutes ago in #ubuntu-offtopic, they'll know what you're talking about
[04:04] <Thehound666> I have a backup xorg.conf
[04:04] <Thehound666> but can't use it
[04:04] <Squig> Thehound666 Try installing the opensource radeon driver insted, if you google there is a good howto on ubuntu
[04:04] <[Hyarion] > Hello, I'm currently using Edgy and ever since installing while using the OS it will freeze around 2-3 times everyday and I'm forced to restart, has anyone else experienced this?
[04:04] <Thehound666> I need to get into my desktop
[04:04] <lightcap> well, anyone know how to get apache 2.2 working with svn on edgy?
[04:04] <Thehound666> to do that
[04:04] <eldowan> blanky: ok. I currently use apt-get to install packages. when this future event happens, will ubuntu stop supporting apt-get / aptitude and debian ties?
[04:05] <gradin> mooo
[04:05] <Squig> if you made a backup of your xorg.conf then replace it
[04:05] <zero88> Does anybody know of a web vulnerability scanner in the respitories???
[04:05] <Thehound666> how?
[04:05] <DARKGuy> mackinac: full grayscale, it can go up to "24-bit" oO
[04:05] <Thehound666> I cannot load my desktop
[04:05] <Squig> do you have a backup of the xorg.conf?
[04:05] <ardchoille> eldowan: No, the CNR stuff will be an option, apt-get/aptitude won't go away.
[04:05] <Thehound666> that's the issue
[04:05] <blanky> eldowan: again, take it to #ubuntu-offtopic , and here: http://wiki.freespire.org/index.php/Linspire_Canonical_Partnership_FAQ
[04:05] <Thehound666> yes
[04:05] <blanky> eldowan: in other words, 'no'
[04:05] <cables> Thehound666, I can help you restore from the backup without desktop.
[04:05] <Toma-> zero88: webcheck?
[04:05] <mackinac> lol, cool... to be honest i didn't really know if such a thing existed :)
[04:05] <cables> Thehound666, private chat?
[04:05] <DARKGuy> mackinac: but no way I could pay that =(
[04:05] <Thehound666> that's what I need thank you
[04:06] <Thehound666> ok
[04:06] <zero88> toma- thats in the respitories
[04:06] <Toma-> zero88: its more for valid link checking...
[04:06] <zero88> toma- oh
[04:06] <eldowan> blanky: I hope you don't routinely go around being a prick to a question
[04:06] <Raynjamin> If I have a 64 bit AMD processor, do I have to download the 64 bit version of Edgy? Or can I just install the 'alternate-i386' version?
[04:06] <Toma-> yes it is..
[04:06] <DARKGuy> mackinac: it did, could barely believe it too oO but it's here working and all xD
[04:06] <zero88> toma- well ill give that a try
[04:06] <jrib> Raynjamin: you can install i386
[04:06] <Raynjamin> k
[04:06] <Raynjamin> Thankx.
[04:06] <blankfaze> when i installed ubuntu, i used an alternate ISO that was text based and downloaded the components during the install.., so that the ISO was small... can anyone remember this?
[04:06] <linux_> i386 didn't work for my video card / monitor
[04:06] <bruenig> !minimal | blankfaze
[04:06] <ubotu> blankfaze: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
  yeah friend i 'm here
[04:07] <Toma-> zero88: as for security checking, nessus would be ok
[04:07] <blankfaze> yaythx
[04:07] <Raynjamin> I'm going through CD's like noone's business. :p
[04:07] <linux_> same here, same boat
[04:07] <zero88> toma- ya i know, i downloaded it,well from the respitories,but i can seem to get a user name and pass
[04:07] <mackinac> DARKGuy, cool, I'm jealous :D
[04:07] <linux_> why can't they apt-get us the whole ubuntu?
[04:07] <Raynjamin> *snicker*
[04:07] <Toma-> zero88: did you install the server?
[04:07] <blankfaze> bruenig/everyone else ... do you know if there is a minimal cd like that for kubuntu?
[04:07] <zero88> i registered,but i have to add a line of code somewhere wich doesnt work
[04:08] <zero88> toma-,umm im not sure
[04:08] <linux_> toma, server worked, but i want a GUI
[04:08] <linux_> so i can X11 my SSH
[04:08] <bruenig> blankfaze, never used the minimal cd but seeing as you are downloading nearly all the packages, it seems like you could simply download the kubuntu packages instead, but again don't know exactly the protocol there for install
[04:08] <Toma-> linux_: what?
[04:08] <bruenig> linux_, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:08] <linux_> tried it, GUI failed
[04:08] <mike_> can you search for stuff in apt-get? like you can in BSD?
[04:08] <nevron> does amarok run stable under gnome?
[04:09] <linux_> installed Xubuntu server, and did the apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, X11 failed
[04:09] <DARKGuy> mackinac: and I am too, lol. Bad thing is that it doesn't support 800x600. Just 640@60 and 1024@43Hz interlaced o.O
[04:09] <ardchoille> mike_: apt-cache search appname
[04:09] <DARKGuy> bruenig: maybe apt-get install kubuntu-desktop? oO
[04:09] <bruenig> nevron, yeah, tad slower at least on my hardware but stable certainly
[04:09] <mike_> thanks
[04:09] <blankfaze> oh i remember now
[04:09] <Toma-> linux_: sounds like xorg didnt get configured
[04:09] <bruenig> DARKGuy, I am not sure how the minimal cd works though. Are you apt-getting yourself or are you just highlighting stuff
[04:09] <ardchoille> mike_: To see if something is installed: apt-cache policy appname
[04:09] <nevron> hmm bruenig i am constantly getting errors from amarok :(
[04:09] <Igor_V2> anybody could give me a good sources.list repositories??
[04:09] <Torist> it worked for a little and crashed (x11)
[04:09] <bruenig> !easysource | Igor_V2
[04:09] <nevron> now i am using xmms :(
[04:09] <ubotu> Igor_V2: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:09] <ardchoille> Igor_V2: I can pastebin mine. Want it?
[04:09] <Toma-> Torist: "for a little"?
[04:10] <Torist> about a week
[04:10] <DARKGuy> bruenig: I haven't tested it myself either, but if it it has access to the apt repository, it *should* have access to both xubuntu and kubuntu desktop too oO
[04:10] <r00tintheb0x> #j #debian
[04:10] <bruenig> DARKGuy, you would think
[04:11] <DARKGuy> bruenig: well, alternate install does, after uncommenting some repos in sources.list
[04:11] <Squig> linuxor: What you need to do is download the newest version of wine if you haven't already (www.winehq.org) and the newest version of winetools (http://fly5.pp.fi/misc/winetools-0.9.4.tar.gz)  Then under winetools download Internet explorer 6, the Arial font, DCOM98, and VC 6 Runtime.  Then it should work (wouldn't swear to it) if not, there are a few dll's that you might need
[04:11] <ardchoille> Igor_V2: http://www.pastebin.ca/346162
[04:11] <r00tintheb0x> linuxor, http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[04:11] <r00tintheb0x> just do that man
[04:11] <Torist> last time i ran IE on ubuntu, it crashed ubuntu from pop-ups
[04:11] <r00tintheb0x> its automatic
[04:12] <r00tintheb0x> i use it all the time
[04:12] <kenh83> is there support for Creative Audigy 2 Sound Cards in Ubuntu 6.10?
[04:12] <Torist> u can use the IE plugin for firefox
[04:12] <Torist> works like a charm
[04:12] <r00tintheb0x> ken yes
[04:12] <r00tintheb0x> or install ie6
[04:12] <linuxor> Squig : thx a lot friend I'll try it
[04:12] <kenh83> r00tintheb0x i was just messing around with the LiveCD (running it off the CD, instead of installing it)
[04:12] <kenh83> and I was unable to get my sound to work..
[04:12] <r00tintheb0x> oh ken
[04:13] <bruenig> Torist, ietab doesn't work on linux I thought?
[04:13] <r00tintheb0x> did it not pick your sound card up?
[04:13] <kenh83> apparently not?
[04:13] <kenh83> ;(
[04:13] <r00tintheb0x> IEs4Linux is the simpler way to have Microsoft Internet Explorer running on Linux (or any OS running Wine).
[04:13] <r00tintheb0x> No clicks needed. No boring setup processes. No Wine complications. Just one easy script and you'll get three IE versions to test your Sites. And it's free and open source
[04:13] <kenh83> windoews does :P
[04:13] <kenh83> lol
[04:14] <kenh83> r00tintheb0x any ideas?
[04:14] <eugene> what is a good program i can use to download music
[04:14] <eugene> or do i have to use torrents
[04:14] <shiv> yellow: Hi
[04:14] <r00tintheb0x> ken i doubt that.
[04:14] <Toma-> eugene: gtk-gnutella
[04:14] <r00tintheb0x> i dont remember gettin sound when i installed it.
[04:14] <r00tintheb0x> if im not mistaken.
[04:14] <eugene> thx
[04:14] <kenh83> ?
[04:15] <kenh83> so you dont know if its supported?
[04:15] <r00tintheb0x> im sure it is
[04:15] <r00tintheb0x> i dont know if it is automaticaly.
[04:15] <r00tintheb0x> you may have to load a module
[04:15] <kenh83> how can i find a manual method?
[04:15] <kenh83> such as..
[04:15] <r00tintheb0x> put the module under /etc/modules
[04:15] <shiv> I have audigy card and realtek both on the same CPU everytime I boot alsa just uses realtek by default instead of audigy. How do I change it to choose audigy  by default?
[04:15] <linux_kid> Can I downgrade from Edgy to Dapper without reinstalling?
[04:15] <r00tintheb0x> or whatever file ubuntu uses.
[04:15] <bruenig> !downgrade | linux_kid

[04:28] <Falstius> brombomb: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[04:28] <Falstius> or alt-f2 terminal
[04:28] <brombomb> I have nothing listed under accessories
[04:28] <type_c> is xubuntu based on xfce??
[04:28] <pavs> whats the differance between xubuntu and ubuntu which one is better
[04:28] <ardchoille> brombomb: Or, ALT+F2, type in gnome-terminal and bob's your uncle
[04:28] <Falstius> brombomb: then alt-f2 xterm
[04:28] <mike01> how do i upgrade from 2.6.17-10-generic to 2.6.20
[04:28] <someothernick> !xubuntu
[04:28] <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
[04:29] <ardchoille> brombomb: Normally if you didn't have anything in Accessories, Accessories wouldn't be visible in the menus
[04:29] <brombomb> Ya I added accessrios places and system
[04:29] <shiv> I have audigy card and realtek both on the same CPU everytime I boot alsa just uses realtek by default instead of audigy. How do I change it to choose audigy  by default?
[04:29] <brombomb> and I am trying to populate it
[04:29] <pavs> thanks for the info
[04:29] <brombomb> I have nothing (useful) in system either
[04:29] <ardchoille> brombomb: Why are you doing all of that? Did you not have menus in your panel?
[04:30] <rbil> brombomb: easiest way to get quick access to a terminal is to place a launcher for one on your panel
[04:30] <MacSonne> hi everyone!
[04:30] <pavs> !kubuntu
[04:30] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[04:30] <MacSonne> :-)
[04:30] <MacSonne> KDE for mac!?
[04:30] <mike01> how do i upgrade from 2.6.17-10-generic to 2.6.20
[04:31] <brombomb> I had a screwy install..... Ubuntu server 6.10 then ran apt-get install ubuuntu-desktop and some video card drivers to get xwindow working
[04:31] <ardchoille> mike01: Dapper or Edgy?
[04:31] <mike01> edgy
[04:31] <pavs> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop should i type this to install kubuntu from ubuntu terminal
[04:31] <brombomb> and my menu was completly empty
[04:31] <rbil> brombomb: right click on panel and Add to Panel, then create a new launcher: Name=Terminal Command=gnome-terminal, click Icon to use an Icon then close the dialog. You'll then have easy access to launch a terminal
[04:31] <type_c> edgy stable?
[04:31] <brombomb> thanks rbil

[04:34] <ardchoille> mike01: I don't know, I don't use beryl

[04:34] <bruenig> Idempotence, ati is problematic in general
[04:34] <DARKGuy> Idempotence: dualhead ATI card, or AGP & PCI cards ?
[04:34] <bruenig> brombomb, start writing the .desktop files, /usr/share/applications
[04:34] <ardchoille> brombomb: Is there anything in /usr/share/applications?
[04:34] <rbil> Idempotence: what ati card u got?
[04:35] <PwcrLinux> I wondered my lappy getting slow down when I am browsing on the web on firefox, probably exeesive ads?
[04:35] <Zoffix> quintin, beautiful. Many thanks.
[04:35] <pavs> not a single application ie (apache server) but a bunch of server intregated in a package ie apache mail, telnet, ssh, terminal with frontend GUI
[04:35] <Idempotence> it's Radeon 9550 PCI (1 dvi and 1 normal) ... it works with gentoo but same thing i did for ubuntu and it's not working
[04:35] <brombomb> there about 30-50 files in usr/share/applications
[04:35] <Idempotence> (Also works outta box with FC5)
[04:36] <brombomb> most labeled .desktop
[04:36] <corevette> where is the web directory folder for apache2?
[04:36] <imbecile> how can i tell what video card i have from terminal?
[04:36] <rbil> Idempotence: I'm running dualhead ATI 7500. so don't know whether my xorg.conf will help you? it's using the open source radeon driver
[04:36] <Squig> linuxor: I'm very sorry, but i must go (it's getting pretty late here).  Best of luck with getting P2M to run under wine.  If you still want to try, some pages you might want to visit are http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=4188 (P2M wine application database page) and http://www.von-thadden.de/Joachim/WineTools/index.html#download + http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2113141 for winetools.  For help with wine, you migh
[04:36] <Squig> t want to try #wine .  If, insted you decide that you don't want to run it under wine, try http://www.glauberpires.com.br/p2m/english/ which is an open source version of it, which is programmed and Java and from what i understand is almost the same thing as P2M except it is unable to handle .p2m files
[04:36] <ardchoille> brombomb: Right, those are what gnome usually parse to get the menus populated
[04:36] <DARKGuy> imbecile: lspci | grep 'video'
[04:36] <DARKGuy> maybe o.o
[04:36] <quintin> corevette: /var/www
[04:36] <quintin> imbecile: lspci
[04:36] <mike01> apt-get dist-upgrade    gives me  The following packages have been kept back:....
[04:37] <brombomb> is there a way to recompile those menus?
[04:37] <Idempotence> rbil, thanks . .. i used the ati drivers from ubuntu, by open source you mean which?
[04:37] <soleblaze> what boot time param can you use to disable raid on startup?
[04:38] <rbil> Idempotence: the ones that come with Ubuntu, not the propreitary ones from ATI
[04:38] <Idempotence> rbil, same. instead, let me pastebin my xorg.conf first
[04:38] <rbil> ok
[04:39] <pavs> is there GUI for SSH to configure/run?

[04:39] <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
[04:39] <quintin> pavs: why would you want one?  maybe you want putty
[04:39] <Idempotence> http://pastebin.ca/346190  <-- again the problem was dual monitor and ati drivers that come with ubuntu

[05:16] <andy> I'm new at Ubuntu. Where would those files be located?
[05:17] <unop> andy,  under ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/  usually
[05:17] <nomasteryoda|w> creepycrawly, sorry...
[05:17] <creepycrawly> nomasteryoda|w, np
[05:17] <nomasteryoda|w> should be located in /etc/default/iptables....
[05:17] <nomasteryoda|w> or some such
[05:17] <jfanaian> I installed my wireless drivers with ndiswrapper but if i do lshw but it says: *-network:0 DISABLED
[05:17] <jfanaian>                 description: Wireless interface

[05:17] <jfanaian>                 vendor: Broadcom Corporation
[05:17] <jfanaian> is there a way to enable it? why is it disabled?
[05:18] <nomasteryoda|w> creepycrawly, you can search the whole hd with sudo find . -iname iptables\*

[05:18] <ubotu> jfanaian: 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)
[05:18] <unop> jfanaian,  does ifconfig list the wireless NIC?
[05:18] <creepycrawly> nomasteryoda|w, im writting my own in /sysconfig/iptables
[05:18] <creepycrawly> heh
[05:18] <jfanaian> no, but iwconfig does
[05:18] <creepycrawly> i was just making sure its not there somwhere
[05:18] <andy> Do I use the terminal to get there or is there an easier way.
[05:18] <andy> ?
[05:19] <unop> jfanaian,  how about ifconfig -a ?
[05:19] <mhiku> someone here have installed ffmpeg-php, can you pm me, or tell me how to install it?
[05:19] <jfanaian> ifconfig -a does show eth1
[05:19] <soleblaze> Has anyone seen ubuntu freeze up at Begin: Starting up raids. part. and then after about 5 minutes it sends a buncha enters and basically clears the screen with your cursor at the bottom?
[05:19] <creepycrawly> jfanaian, run network-admin
[05:19] <unop> andy,  you can use nautilus to get there -- you'll need to view hidden files to get access to ~/.wine tho - press CTRL+H in your home folder
[05:19] <buchan> A friend is trying to install Ubuntu 6.10. Attempting to boot the Live CD, Busy Box dumps right on my chest and i'm left with "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off", and its unable to mount a bunch of file systems. I have searched the forums but nobody has ever came up with a working solution. Any ideas?
[05:20] <creepycrawly> unop, from terminal as root run network-admin
[05:20] <jfanaian> i have used network-admin, and i configured it but it if i try to do dhclient eth1 it says "network down"
[05:20] <creepycrawly> ifconfig eth1 up
[05:20] <Skuller> hey ppl....i just started using 6.06 a while back....
[05:20] <unop> creepycrawly,  i'm not the one getting wireless up :) and what if i dont run gnome or have network-admin?
[05:20] <creepycrawly> did you enbale the connection from within the wirless cards properties in the networka
[05:20] <creepycrawly> did you enbale the connection from within the wirless cards properties in the networadmin
[05:21] <Skuller> i cannot get my GAIM to use the MSN protocol
[05:21] <jfanaian> i get SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory when i do "ifconfig eth1 up"
[05:21] <creepycrawly> unop, im a fluxbox fan my self :)
[05:21] <jfanaian> and yes, i did enable the connection
[05:21] <unop> creepycrawly,  likewise :)
[05:21] <creepycrawly> :)
[05:21] <unop> jfanaian,  did you sudo the command? sudo ifup eth1
[05:21] <jfanaian> yes
[05:21] <andy> nautilus is something I need to install? I don't see it listed on my computer.
[05:21] <jfanaian> ifconfig without sudo gave me "Permission denied"
[05:21] <creepycrawly> I LOVE UBUNTU
[05:22] <creepycrawly> damn portsentry locked out my other pc's
[05:22] <creepycrawly> arrrh
[05:22] <gerald> can someone help me get dua monitor to work, i got a brown screen on the 2nd monitor
[05:22] <unop> andy,  nautilus is your file explorer :) its already installed
[05:22] <Byan> jfanaian: tell me what to do about that.. cause mine does that sometimes
[05:22] <gerald> and both my mnsonitors are different resolutio
[05:22] <andy> Sorry, not used to the terminology yet.
[05:23] <jfanaian> byan, type "sudo" before the command you're trying to run... it may ask you to type in your password for security purposes
[05:23] <cveb> where is firefox located?
[05:23] <unop> jfanaian,  did you say you were using ndiswrapper?
[05:23] <Byan> jfanaian: it says that with sudo
[05:23] <Byan> it confuses me
[05:23] <brombomb> cveb: /usr/bin/firefox
[05:23] <jfanaian> unop, yes i'm using ndiswrapper
[05:23] <jfanaian> byan, try sudo su?
[05:23] <unop> cveb,  /usr/lib/firefox or /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox
[05:23] <Nivex> What's up with the edgy apt repo being busted w.r.t. linux-image ?
[05:24] <jfanaian> byan, i am not too sure what to do then :(
[05:24] <unop> jfanaian,  sudo su ? no, dont do that -- just sudo -i
[05:24] <jfanaian> ahh, sorry i didn't know... just guessing =\
[05:24] <cveb> i'm actually trying to find the bookmarks in firefox so I can put them on the desktop for my parents.
[05:25] <unop> jfanaian,  well, ensure that ndiswrapper is configured right -- if you are convinced it is, check /var/log/dmesg for messages relating to the wireless card
[05:25] <jfanaian> unop, dmesg shows ndiswrapper loading but it does not show the wireless card itself loading... i'm not sure if this is a problem with ndisrwapper or modprobe though
[05:25] <unop> cveb,  the book marks are placed in the user's home folder - under ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profilename>/bookmarks.html
[05:26] <jfanaian> unop, and my first guess was that modprobe wasn't loading it right... but somewhere i read about lshw and tried it and found that it said 'disabled' for my wireless card
[05:26] <rbil> cveb: when u need to find stuff like that try .... locate <somename here>
[05:26] <skillet> jfanaian, is the card enabled in the bios?
[05:26] <cveb> bah
[05:26] <cveb> they're not seperate
[05:26] <UbuntuXP> I'm trying to dual boot windows xp and ubuntu. Do you guys recommend to make 512Mb of swap and 20G of /  or 512MB of swap and 10G of / and 10G of /home? thanks
[05:27] <unop> jfanaian,  lshw lists hardware connected to the computer, and that doesnt necessarily mean that the device is configured right (as the "disabled" there might indicate) .. i should think you need to go back and verify ndiswrapper again
[05:27] <jfanaian> unop, if i do dmesg | grep ndiswrapper i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4816/
[05:27] <skillet> jfanaian, or is there a button to turn it on and off on the side... i assume this is a laptop?
[05:27] <jfanaian> unop, how would i go about verifying ndiswrapper?
[05:27] <jfanaian> skillet, yes it is a laptop, and yes it is a button. it is off, and i can't get it to turn on either
[05:27] <jfanaian> there is a button*
[05:28] <jfanaian> unop, if i run "ndiswrapper -l" it shows my drivers loaded and my hardware present
[05:28] <jfanaian> i mean drivers present
[05:29] <skillet> jfanaian, id restart the machine so it reinitialized the card
[05:29] <brombomb> Where are the System apps found?
[05:29] <skillet> jfanaian, and also make sure there wasnt a setting in the bios that is keeping it from turning on
[05:29] <jfanaian> skillet, i have tried that about 10 times... i've also tried reinstalling ndiswrapper a few different ways trying a few different guides and restarting each time
[05:29] <brombomb> or even What are some system Apps?
[05:30] <unop> jfanaian, and does lsmod list the ndiswrapper module as loaded?
[05:30] <skillet> hrmm
[05:30] <jfanaian> unop, yes
[05:30] <unop> brombomb, can you give us an example of a "system app" ?
[05:30] <brombomb> Gnome >> System >> ???
[05:30] <cveb> how do you change an icon?
[05:30] <cveb> i made a launcher firefox www.google.com
[05:31] <brombomb> From the Menu
[05:31] <cveb> but it has that diamond icon
[05:31] <jfanaian> skillet, i could check for a bios setting but that wouldn't make sense... i had windows running on this a few hours ago and the wireless worked fine... i could also enable/disable it with the toggle button on my laptop
[05:31] <ssweeny> cveb: where is the launcher?
[05:31] <cveb> Desktop
[05:31] <cveb> it works
[05:31] <brombomb> cveb: right click properties click the diamond
[05:31] <cveb> just I want the firefox icon :P
[05:31] <jfanaian> cveb, normally you can right click on it, go to properties, then click on the icon and find the icon for firefox
[05:31] <buddy> hey..
[05:31] <cveb> it's not there?
[05:32] <cveb> Basic/Emblems tabs
[05:32] <ssweeny> cveb: what's not there?
[05:32] <brombomb> cveb: choose browse
[05:32] <udomsak_> HI all
[05:32] <tmalloy> can anyone help me with a sound problem? I've already tried the comprehensive guide on the forums
[05:32] <cveb> brombomb: there is no browse
[05:32] <jfanaian> unop, there's also a module called "usbcore" that says is being used by ndiswrapper
[05:32] <brombomb> o
[05:33] <buddy> I wanted do something weird.. I have a pentium 166.. 128 ram, 2gb hard disk..what distro can I use? I though debian.. but I dunno how can I install a light wm there..
[05:33] <udomsak_> Sorry , I looking for libfreetype6 v 2.2 ( for upgrade my libcairo ) , Anyone can suggest me ?
[05:33] <unop> jfanaian,  i've never used ndiswrapper so i'm not sure what to look for - i'd go back to the drawing board and verify each of the settings as shown here if i were you - http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Broadcomm_with_Ndiswrapper
[05:33] <ssweeny> cveb: what happens when you click the icon on the "Basic" tab?
[05:33] <brombomb> I show the png file in /usr/share/pixmaps
[05:33] <ssweeny> you should get a file browser
[05:33] <unop> jfanaian,  that makes sense if the card is a USB device
[05:33] <cveb> bah it doesnt mater
[05:33] <jfanaian> unop, i will try that and see what i can come up with... thanks for helping me through this :)
[05:33] <brombomb> and in /usr/share/app-install/icons
[05:33] <rbil> buddy: you might want to look at Damn Small Linux
[05:33] <brombomb> at least on my system
[05:34] <jfanaian> unop, it isn't a usb at all... its built-in on the motherboard
[05:34] <andy> How do I get the ICON to disappear out of teh wine folder on tha application menu?
[05:34] <buddy> rbil, there are "apt-get" at that distro? lol
[05:34] <brombomb> How should I mount an External HDD?
[05:34] <jpedroza> hello all is there a place where I can get the deb sources for things like sendmail? I have tried apt-get install sendmail, it says there are no sources for it.
[05:34] <unop> brombomb,  "system apps" are placed in quite a few places .. the libraries should be placed in /usr/lib/.., configuration files (if any) in /etc/.. and the executables somewhere in the $PATH .. usually /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin
[05:34] <jfanaian> unop, well let me try that link you gave me and see if it helps... thank you so much for helping me this far! :)
[05:34] <brombomb> :unop cool thanks
[05:35] <unop> jfanaian,  onboard cards are usually conencted upto the PCI bus .. but is entirely plausible that your is connected upto the USB bus (quite unlikely tho)
[05:35] <ssweeny> jpedroza: do you have the deb-src lines uncommented in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[05:35] <buddy> sorry for my english.. hehe
[05:35] <jpedroza> ssweeny: I will look
[05:36] <jpedroza> ssweeny: Yes. I am sorry, I should have checked that first.
[05:36] <jpedroza> I know there are no stupid questions, but I am an inquisitive idiot.
[05:36] <jpedroza> =)
[05:36] <ssweeny> it's all good, man
[05:37] <Thehound666> needed a fsck to clear a few remaining bugs but all seems normal now, thanks for the help. It was common sense but I can't think when I panic :(
[05:37] <jpedroza> once I have uncommented the lines, can I just apt-get install sendmail?
[05:37] <nomasteryoda|w> Thehound666, when all your stuff could be gone, panic you will
[05:37] <unop> Thehound666,  you're only human like everyone else, we all perform badly under panic-attacks :)
[05:37] <skillet> apt-get update first
[05:38] <ssweeny> jpedroza: if you want the source, it's apt-get update then apt-get source sendmail
[05:38] <unop> jpedroza,  that would install sendmail via the binaries not the source tho
[05:38] <cveb> do i get libxvcml to play .avi?
[05:38] <cveb> or divx
[05:38] <unop> cveb,  got the codecs for that support?
[05:39] <cveb> im trying to get the codecs
[05:39] <cveb> to play video
[05:39] <unop> !seveas | cveb
[05:39] <ubotu> cveb: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:39] <unop> cveb, you should be able to find the w32codecs from his repo .. and that should get you on your way to playing .avi files
[05:41] <cveb> wtf i cant even play dvds
[05:41] <cveb> why aren't all these things installed with ubuntu?
[05:41] <kitche> !dvd|cveb
[05:41] <ubotu> cveb: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:42] <humblerodent> Recently I was experiencing total lockups (no response from any input whatsoever) and was being constantly forced to cold reboot the machine.  On a hunch I reseated the CPU, including a re-spread of the thermal grease, and the problem seemed to stop completely.  Now, I'm getting lockups to the point where I can move (but not click) the mouse, the clock still runs, and the hard drive light is still blinking, but nothing else does anything,
[05:42] <humblerodent>  and again a cold reboot is required.  Can anyone give me any advice or input?  Thanks in advance
[05:42] <unop> cveb,  these functionalities are not included by default as there are licensing issues sorrrounding restricted formats like mp3 and wmx and dvds, etc
[05:42] <jpedroza> cveb: I know on other distros that there are some laws in the US that make it so they can't distribute libdvdcss2. Call your local congressman about this issue as well
[05:43] <Thehound666> can you figure out an issue that ranks lower than urgent. In the "very annoying" category
[05:43] <synic> humblerodent: run memtest?
[05:44] <Thehound666> I have a Debian server I ssh into but under Ubuntu, it disconnects after inactivity. I don't get that with Putty under Windows
[05:44] <Thehound666> same connection
[05:44] <rbil> humblerodent: u running Skype?
[05:44] <humblerodent> synic, yes....I do have one bad bit on my memory, but I don't think it's causing the problem.  When I was having the lockups before, I put a clean (I checked it with memtest) stick of memory in instead, and still had the lockups.
[05:44] <mike01> if i am compiling my own kernel, do i need to apply any patches to it?
[05:45] <humblerodent> rbil, nope.
[05:45] <kitche> mike01: only if you want to
[05:45] <Xenguy> Thehound666: I've never heard of such a problem - weird
[05:45] <cveb> im going to reinstall windows
[05:45] <mike01> where are patches listed?
[05:45] <Thehound666> if I could fix that, I could shutdown Windows alot more
[05:45] <cveb> at least you don't have to go and find everything for anything to work
[05:45] <Xenguy> cveb: bye
[05:46] <humblerodent> mike01, there are patches all over the webz.  I don't know if there is any one central list....
[05:46] <mindstate> anyone know a good tool to burn vcds or svcd
[05:46] <humblerodent> mindstate, Nero?
[05:46] <rbil> cveb: too bad you're giving up. Once you get it all configured, you'll never even consider going back to windows
[05:46] <humblerodent> cveb, rbil speaks truth.
[05:46] <mindstate> humblerodent: they've got nero for linux?
[05:46] <humblerodent> mindstate, oops

Attempting to boot the Live CD, Busy Box dumps right on my chest and i'm left with "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off", and its unable to mount a bunch of file systems. I have searched the forums but nobody has ever came up with a working solution. Any ideas?
[05:46] <humblerodent> mindstate, I meant to say K3B
[05:46] <humblerodent> =P
[05:46] <Thehound666> I only use windows for games...and ssh atm
[05:46] <cveb> my point is why do you HAVE to configure so much?! windows does it all
[05:46] <cveb> sigh.
[05:46] <humblerodent> mindstate, K3B is so comparable to Nero that I mix up the names, lol.
[05:46] <Thehound666> Linux times out alot on ssh
[05:47] <jpedroza> Thehound666: Have you tried this?
[05:47] <m_billybob> lol
[05:47] <mindstate> humblerodent: can i use k3d if im using Gnome
[05:47] <mindstate> k3b
[05:47] <m_billybob> Thehound666: maybe on YOUR system
[05:47] <humblerodent> cveb, because Linux is much more flexible ;)
[05:47] <rbil> cveb: you PAY for Windows and MickeyMouse licenses use of proprietary codecs
[05:47] <Thehound666> same connection
[05:47] <humblerodent> cveb, you only have to configure Linux because Linux doesn't force things to be a certain way....
[05:47] <Thehound666> I can boot into Windows same system
[05:47] <Thehound666> fire up putty
[05:47] <Xenguy> Thehound666: there's no default setting that would cause time-outs that I know of -- maybe you could try purge and re-install ?
[05:47] <mackinac> !restricted | cveb
[05:47] <unop> Thehound666,  after how much inactivity does ssh disconenct? do you know which iniatiates the disconnection, the server or the client?

[05:47] <m_billybob> read: user
[05:47] <humblerodent> mindstate, yes, you just have to have KDE installed so it can load the libraries and crap.
[05:47] <ardchoille> cveb: Yes, Windows does it all.. viruses.. trojans.. worms.. botnets. I curse M$ for making an OS that works with so many things ;)
[05:47] <Thehound666> yes if I'm active no problem
[05:47] <skillet> pebkac!

[05:48] <mindstate> humblerodent: ah alright, thanks
[05:48] <newest> hello, im very new to ubuntu, ive just installed it, ive noticed when surfing the internet and scrolling down pages theres a certain amount of 'lag', basically sorta like the file overlaps, is there anyway to clear this up?
[05:48] <cveb> well for one, is there a mirc clone for ubuntu? :)
[05:48] <cveb> complete with userbar?
[05:48] <m_billybob> sounds like a keepalive issue
[05:48] <jpedroza> Thehound666: Try editing the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and commenting out the line that says ClientAliveinterval

[05:49] <humblerodent> cveb, if you are talking about the list at the right....it might just be that it's resized really tiny.  I've had that problem with lately-versions.
[05:49] <unop> cveb,  the userbar needs to be "shown" or should i say, dragged into existence
[05:50] <cveb> ok
[05:50] <newest> sorry, do i type gixinfo into the terminal to get the info?
[05:50] <Xenguy> m_billybob: I don't believe that, sorry ;-)

[05:50] <rbil> cveb: much more polished product, imho
[05:50] <humblerodent> newest, that's an "ell" not an "eye"
[05:51] <cveb> how do i get konversation?
[05:51] <newest> cool, thanks,
[05:51] <Thehound666> unop: keepalive yes in uncommented but see nothing that says anything about the interval
[05:51] <newest> ive just typed it in
[05:51] <crackhead25> question: how do you guys think ubuntu's latest release compares to opensuse?
[05:51] <unop> rbil,  but KDE dependant tho .. dont forget to mention that :)
[05:51] <rbil> cveb: in a terminal ... sudo apt-get install konversation
[05:51] <Thehound666> unop: Putty is set to 30 sec in windows
[05:51] <newest> but theres alot of info thats appeared
[05:51] <rbil> unop, so?
[05:51] <variant> newest: thats why i said glxing | grep direct
[05:51] <rbil> unop, runs fine unde gnome
[05:51] <newest> oh sorry, ill try again
[05:51] <variant> newest: "glxinfo | grep direct"
[05:51] <humblerodent>  Recently I was experiencing total lockups (no response from any input whatsoever) and was being constantly forced to cold reboot the machine.  On a hunch I reseated the CPU, including a re-spread of the thermal grease, and the problem seemed to stop completely.  Now, I'm getting lockups to the point where I can move (but not click) the mouse, the clock still runs, and the hard drive light is still blinking, but nothing else does anything
[05:51] <humblerodent> , and again a cold reboot is required.  Can anyone give me any advice or input?  Thanks in advance
[05:51] <Xenguy> crackhead25: does opensuse have anything to do with Novell?
[05:51] <fr500_> crackhead25: very similar i guess, ubuntu is about the community i guess
[05:52] <crackhead25> yeah, novell's open source develop. community version of suse
[05:52] <unop> Thehound666,  i dont think that directive has anything to do with the timeout -- as you said putty seems to be unaffected under windows
[05:52] <siconsole> hi guys why i got GLib-ERROR **: gmem.c:135: failed to allocate 1864512424 bytes after i uninstall amarok?
[05:52] <cveb> I know you can do apt-get and stuff, but how do you do it if it's on a 3rd party site?
[05:52] <cveb> (e.g dvd libs :P)
[05:52] <humblerodent> crackhead25, I don't know how it would work with you, but I tried installing some Suse (I think it was OpenSuse....is that the only free one?) and it kept crashing during install. :-P
[05:52] <newest> this is what it says : direct rendering: No
[05:52] <newest> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[05:52] <m_billybob> well, until i rebooted
[05:52] <m_billybob> :/
[05:52] <frogzoo> cveb: d/l the deb, then 'sudo dpkg -i blah.deb'
[05:52] <Thehound666> unop: I do have to enable keepalive in Putty or it drops too. 30 sec seems best interval
[05:52] <unop> rbil,  I think its overkill to install half of the KDE-base just to get konversation working when you have other pure gnome alternatives
[05:52] <rbil> cveb: konversation is in Ubuntu repos
[05:52] <Xenguy> crackhead25: considered boycotting them lately?  =)
[05:52] <Thehound666> but I see no adjustment here
[05:52] <humblerodent> cveb, you need to add other repositories to your source list.  Google "adding repositories to apt" for info on that.

[05:53] <frogzoo> newest: no 3D for you!
[05:53] <variant> newest: thats why your getting tearing effect when scrolling in firefox.. it's quite common. you need to get 3d acceleration enabled for your graphics card
[05:53] <cveb> rbil: I'm talking about getting .avi and DVDs and stuff working.
[05:53] <unop> Thehound666,  ahh so you have to djust the keepalive in putty for it not to drop
[05:53] <crackhead25> ive considered trying a variety of distros
[05:53] <rbil> unop, well maybe there are so many other kde apps I like to use, like k3b, that I don't mind
[05:53] <Thehound666> unop: yes but I don't see anything here
[05:53] <Xenguy> crackhead25: how deeply?

[05:53] <Thehound666> unop: I think it might be being behind a router
[05:53] <newest> so basically i wont be able to help it much until i install the hardware?
[05:53] <humblerodent> cveb, refer to my post @ you
[05:53] <crackhead25> as deeply as a noob can
[05:53] <Xenguy> hehe
[05:53] <cveb> humblem, i did
[05:53] <unop> Thehound666,  hmm, i think you should adjust the directive in sshd.conf to set the timeout to be 0
[05:53] <cveb> except, I have nfi how to get it
[05:54] <cveb> :D
[05:54] <variant> newest: untill you sort out the driver you will hav ethat issue yes
[05:54] <NickABusey> I moved my ubuntu box from one monitor to another, and now I can't get it to start x, except for one at 600x800 using the live cd. It just starts a blank screen
[05:54] <humblerodent> synic and rbil, no more suggestions? =(
[05:54] <Veenified> can anyone help me connect to a 802.1x PEAP-MSCHAPV2 wireless network, i have a ipw2200 wireless card/driver

[05:54] <fr500_> i came here afeter fedora 2 and rh0
[05:54] <NickABusey> yea, I've ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg more times than I can count
[05:54] <ardchoille> cveb: sudo apt-get install libdvdread3 && sudo sh /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh  And then pop a DVD into your video player and enjoy :)
[05:54] <fr500_> rh9
[05:54] <NickABusey> with all sorts of settings
[05:54] <humblerodent> Veenified, first of all, is it detecting the hardware and adding it as a configurable card?
[05:55] <cveb> :O
[05:55] <NickABusey> I'm coming here because all the wiki articles have failed, but thanks frogzoo, anything else? :)
[05:55] <cveb> thanks heaps!
[05:55] <humblerodent> ardchoille, does he not need the css too?
[05:55] <frogzoo> NickABusey: you did try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' ?
[05:55] <Veenified> nope, i installed the driver and i can see wireless networks i just cant connect to my college's network
[05:55] <cveb> uho, it said libdvdread3 could not be found?
[05:55] <variant> newest: driver?
[05:56] <crackhead25> fr500_, what's your experience relative to other distros?
[05:56] <ardchoille> humblerodent: That install-css.sh script will install it for him.
[05:56] <humblerodent> Veenified, if you go to System>Administration>Network, do you see your card in the list?  even if it isn't configured yet?
[05:56] <dyrne> NickABusey: pastebin your xorg.conf file and your monitor model. maybe someone will look at it
[05:56] <variant> newest: which chipset is it exactly? please do lspci | grep VGA
[05:56] <humblerodent> ardchoille, ah
[05:56] <variant> newest: you might have to run update-pciids first
[05:56] <fr500_> crackhead25: in comparission to fc2 for instance, ubuntu just worked
[05:56] <variant> newest: you will have to run both those commands with sudo as well
[05:56] <crackhead25> what do you mean?
[05:56] <Thehound666> unop: is this a good setting? ClientAliveInterval 30
[05:56] <Thehound666> ClientAliveCountMax 5
[05:56] <cveb> uho, it said libdvdread3 could not be found?
[05:56] <Veenified> yes
[05:57] <fr500_> crackhead25: lets go to ubuntu-offtopic
[05:57] <crackhead25> k
[05:57] <humblerodent> Veenified, then you just need to go in there and set your settings :) you'll need to know the name of your access point, and the encryption key if there is one.
[05:57] <ardchoille> cveb: Huh? It's in the main repo
[05:57] <humblerodent> Veenified, let me know if you need to know how to scan for access points (if you don't know the name of it)
[05:57] <unop> Thehound666,  that'll kick the clients off after 30 seconds of inactivity .. which is not what you want right?
[05:57] <cveb> it told me it couldn't find that package
[05:57] <pbureau> Veenified, did you see my private message ?
[05:57] <m_billybob> Thehound666: i have keep alive set to 0

[05:58] <spike723_> anyone know how to get a program like xphoon so it can use the root window in ubuntu?
[05:58] <unop> Thehound666,  if you set the timeout to 0, it never times out
[05:58] <newest> oh ok, this is what it said for the update-pciids command : /var/lib/misc/pci.ids.new: Permission denied
[05:58] <newest> update-pciids: download failed
[05:59] <Thehound666> unop: but will my Debian server know if I get disconnected?
[05:59] <variant> frogzoo: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/SiS
[05:59] <humblerodent> okay, I'm off, see you guys
[05:59] <dyrne> spike723_: in a terminal 'gksudo xphoon'  ?
[05:59] <cchance> How can i force a restart of something?
[05:59] <variant> dyrne: thats not what he ment
[05:59] <unop> Thehound666,  sure, but how does that matter ?
[05:59] <frogzoo> variant: thankyou
[05:59] <variant> cchance: killall proccess name
[05:59] <pbureau> Veenified, do you know what type of key they used ? special windows software maybe?
[05:59] <ardchoille> cchance: Depends on what it is. What is it?
[06:00] <Thehound666> unop: I figured your setting means not to require keep alive packets thus a dropped connection would not be known about
[06:00] <variant> dyrne: the root window being pinned to the desktop
[06:00] <Veenified> yea
[06:00] <variant> dyrne: he doesn't mean "with root privilages"
[06:00] <Veenified> probably
[06:01] <cchance> Dansguardian
[06:01] <cveb> ok, i pastebinned in ca because .com wasn't working :P www.pastebin.ca/346225
[06:01] <unop> Thehound666,  actually the ssh server does not keep a record like that -- if a client disconnects, he just does, if he doesnt, then the server just continues on processing client requests -- the keepalive just means "keep sending packets to the client" so that the timeout doesnt kick in
[06:01] <pbureau> Veenified, if you type in a terminal iwconfig whats does it say about the port its using (for example my card is eth1, but yours could be ra0..)
[06:01] <ardchoille> cchance: I thought dansguardian was designed so you couldn't kill it.
[06:01] <Thehound666> they explain it like this
[06:01] <cchance> Oh great
[06:01] <Thehound666>     * ClientAliveInterval: Sets a timeout interval in seconds (30) after which if no data has been received from the client, sshd will send a message through the encrypted channel to request a response from the client. The default is 0, indicating that these messages will
[06:01] <Thehound666>       not be sent to the client. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.
[06:01] <Thehound666> oops
[06:01] <fr500_> can i convert my volume into an LVM volume without reformatting?

[06:02] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[06:02] <Veenified> pbureau: yea the one i am using now is eth0 (ethernet cable) but my wireless card is setup on eth1
[06:02] <cchance> but now the entire system wont work (the dansguardian) and i can type in porno in google and it shows, last time it didny
[06:02] <cchance> didnt*
[06:03] <cchance> owner@cchance:~$ sudo dansguardian restart
[06:03] <cchance> I seem to be running already!
[06:03] <cchance> That dont work
[06:03] <Thehound666> unop: they seem to say your value is default, keep alive packets keep my port open so they make sense. I think trying both with test sessions won't hurt
[06:03] <pbureau> Veenified,  mind coming to a quieter channel type /join #helpya I think I can figure it out and maybe help you connect to your network, dynamic keys are possible with network manager gnome. (maybe).
[06:03] <zero88> how come on a terminal window,when you have alot of information to show, it cuts it out?is there a way to view it all?

[06:10] <spike723_> ardchoille: some programs can use the "root window" of the desktop

[06:10] <frogzoo> mindstate: caution: gparted 0.1 does NOT play nice with resizing NTFS - best soln is to get a latest copy of garted 0.3 on usb, boot off a live cd, & run gparted from the usb - but by rights even this can fail, so any data you can't replace, backup

[06:10] <ardchoille> spike723_: gksudo and gksu are supposed to shade your desktop while you enter the root password. That is normal.
[06:10] <unop> Thehound666,  but you havent ruled out the sshd on the debian server.. which probably is the most likliest to cause this
[06:10] <spike723_> xearth is another
[06:11] <GreyGhost> !splash
[06:11] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.

[06:11] <dynamicreflux> installed flawlessly
[06:11] <dynamicreflux> just not working
[06:11] <instabin> dynamicreflux: but there is select window manager in the menu for the "diamond"
[06:11] <Thehound666> unop: good point actually, we'll see if this interval thing fixes it, since I can stay logged in forever with Putty but I want less time on Windows :S
[06:12] <unop> GreyGhost,  you need to edit the grub menu on the fly to remove the "splash" keyword from the end of the entry - at the grub meny, press 'e' to start editing the entry
[06:12] <rbil> when installing from an edgy liveCD, to dualboot with Windoze, will the install routine allow for resizing ntfs partition like dapper does?
[06:12] <dynamicreflux> my gosh instabin, im an idiot
[06:12] <stinger_au> yo
[06:12] <dynamicreflux> i just selected it, what now
[06:12] <Xenguy> m_billybob: I switched my main box back to debian truthfully, but I still run a couple of ubuntu boxes too :-)  If things go sour in any way there are alternatives :-)
[06:12] <GreyGhost> unop ,ok .. thanks ... btw do u have any idea bout the problem ?
[06:12] <instabin> dynamicreflux: should have loaded beryl as the window manager then did you get a wobly spach screen
[06:12] <stinger_au> i have a question, how do you install squid ? i have tried aptituide squid but it does not exist i do a search and i have a list of other things with the word squid in it though
[06:13] <dynamicreflux> screen sort of hesitated and flickered on and off, but no wobble yet
[06:13] <spike723_> does anyone know what the "root window is"  it's not a terminal ran by root, it's the background of a window manager
[06:13] <dynamicreflux> let me reload the session
[06:13] <m_billybob> Xenguy: ive been eyeing Sabayon personally, lots of nice pretty desktop realistate, thats for sure
[06:13] <unop> GreyGhost,  errm, its hard to say -- do you get any errors or suspecting behaviour?
[06:13] <frogzoo> dynamicreflux: 1) are you using xgl? 2) do you have 3d working?
[06:13] <spike723_> floatbg is another example
[06:13] <dynamicreflux> no 3d does not work
[06:13] <dynamicreflux> im on an ati card
[06:13] <Xenguy> m_billybob: never heard of that - is it a new distribution?
[06:13] <frogzoo> !fglrx | dynamicreflux
[06:13] <ubotu> dynamicreflux: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:13] <cveb> how do I browse the seveaspackages thing?
[06:13] <m_billybob> Xenguy: Gentoo based
[06:13] <dynamicreflux> i installed the drivers
[06:13] <dynamicreflux> they are all installed
[06:13] <GreyGhost> unop ,nope... thats why i'm trying to disable the splash to see what is happening ...
[06:13] <Xenguy> m_billybob: ahh
[06:14] <m_billybob> Xen liveDVD that used beryl etc etc, its very pretty.
[06:14] <m_billybob> uses*
[06:14] <frogzoo> dynamicreflux: which driver are you using?
[06:14] <unop> GreyGhost,  do you get to the console at all?
[06:14] <Xenguy> m_billybob: eye candy :-)
[06:14] <instabin> I use beryl all the time
[06:14] <dynamicreflux> frogzoo: the fgxrl, or whatever they are called
[06:14] <unop> spike723_,  root window in terms of X ?
[06:14] <dynamicreflux> installed perfectly frogzoo
[06:15] <m_billybob> Xenguy: yes, but the LFS aspect appeals to me also, the desktop eye candy is good if you spend hours staring atthe desktop
[06:15] <Thehound666> fglrx
[06:15] <frogzoo> dynamicreflux: glxinfo |grep direct
[06:15] <Thehound666> lol those are trouble for me
[06:15] <dynamicreflux> one sec frogzoo
[06:15] <GreyGhost> unop , err... console? heres what happens... the loading bar finishes loading... and everything goes blank ... Ctrl + Alt + F* does nothing ... Recovery console works fine ... and i can even login as the username ..
[06:15] <m_billybob> Xenguy: thruthfull, i spend most my time starting at puTTY
[06:15] <m_billybob> im nto adverse to the CLI
[06:15] <dynamicreflux> directrendering yes frogzoo
[06:15] <frogzoo> dynamicreflux: & the xgl? not aiglx?
[06:16] <dynamicreflux> how do i double check?
[06:16] <unop> GreyGhost,  hhmm, not looking good -- but do disable the splash screen .. its probably hanging somewhere along the way
[06:16] <Xenguy> m_billybob: sounds fun, but I am on the CLI so often -- yeah exactly :-)
[06:16] <Skuller> hey guys....my GAIM keeps crashing everytime i sign in to my MSN account.....can anyone help me regarding this please?
[06:16] <Xenguy> m_billybob: putty from work, linux from home
[06:16] <GreyGhost> unop ,ok ..i'll come back in later... i thnk its the new kernel or Gnome or something ...
[06:17] <m_billybob> Xenguy: like right now, im using Edgy, its X, but I use it for the 'better' I/O vs Dapper + Samba
[06:17] <rbil> unop: when installing from an edgy liveCD, to dualboot with Windoze, will the install routine allow for resizing ntfs partition like dapper does?
[06:17] <dynamicreflux> frogzoo im running the latest beta btw
[06:17] <dynamicreflux> herd 3
[06:17] <Xenguy> m_billybob: I haven't gone past Dapper
[06:18] <cchance> OMG!
[06:18] <Skuller> hey guys....my GAIM keeps crashing everytime i sign in to my MSN account.....can anyone help me regarding this please?
[06:18] <cchance> im going to kick this things butt
[06:18] <m_billybob> Xenguy: im just a hobbiest, if i were working in a datacenter, id probably be either 1) Sarge, or 2) Dapper
[06:18] <frogzoo> dynamicreflux: check what's called in /usr/share/xsessions/xgl.desktop or whatever - should be xgl
[06:18] <instabin> dynamicreflux: How did you start beryl?
[06:18] <dynamicreflux> made a custom .sh script to execute at startup session when i log in
[06:18] <Skuller> hey guys....my GAIM keeps crashing everytime i sign in to my MSN account.....can anyone help me regarding this please?
[06:18] <unop> rbil,  to be completely honest -- i dont really know, but gparted has been known to work with ntfs partition, so i am inclined to say yes .. but you'll only know if it does really work if you try it out
[06:18] <Xenguy> m_billybob: if it was mission-critical I'd use Sarge, truthfully, but everything has it's place :-)
[06:19] <Music_Shuffle> !repeat | Skuller
[06:19] <ubotu> Skuller: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[06:19] <rbil> unop: ok, thanks
[06:19] <frogzoo> dynamicreflux: that said, I the last beta I tried 0.999~2 wouldn't work
[06:19] <Skuller> sorry
[06:19] <instabin> dynamicreflux: Log in to a regulary session and type beryl-manager and see if you get and difference
[06:19] <m_billybob> Sid at time also
[06:19] <m_billybob> at times*
[06:19] <dynamicreflux> will do
[06:19] <dynamicreflux> be right back
[06:20] <Xenguy> m_billybob: I like testing these days
[06:20] <rbil> unop: thought maybe gparted had been removed from Edgy. Someone said that here the other night.
[06:20] <m_billybob> Xenguy: what do you do ? something tells me viturlization ?
[06:20] <m_billybob> could be the nick ;)
[06:21] <unop> rbil,  errm, i've never used the liveCD but i've always thought the partition manager on it was gparted
[06:21] <Xenguy> m_billybob: a common point of confusion - I invented the name before virtualization caught up - I've actually never tried Xen ironically (though have played with VMware, VirtualBox, and qemu
[06:21] <m_billybob> ah
[06:21] <dynamicreflux> frogzoo:i typed in beryl-manager under terminal, and it gave me Detected Server Aixgl
[06:21] <dr_willis> i saw a live cd with virtualbox the other day.. need to look into that more.
[06:22] <dynamicreflux> frogzoo: how do i get rid of this trash and hop over to xgl
[06:22] <m_billybob> seems everyone nowadays is using Xen for one thing or another
[06:22] <Flannel> dynamicreflux: #ubuntu=effects for XGL/beryl support
[06:22] <Xenguy> m_billybob: xen sounds very fast for one thing
[06:22] <dynamicreflux> thank you flannel
[06:22] <jfanaian> i've been trying to get my broadcom 4381 wireless card to work and went on to reading some more.. i found out that i had to remove bcm34xx because they're older drivers
[06:22] <frogzoo> dynamicreflux: you go back and read the docs
[06:22] <Xenguy> m_billybob: virtualization is a 'next big thing'
[06:22] <frogzoo> !beryl | dynamicreflux
[06:23] <ubotu> dynamicreflux: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[06:23] <jfanaian> but now when i try to install the new ones it just won't work
[06:23] <jfanaian> i do everything exactly like the guides say... i've tried a few now
[06:23] <m_billybob> Xenguy: it is, depnding on how you set it up, however, I dont claim to be an expert, but my experiences with it, is that for what I want to use it for, it has limited I/O capabilities
[06:23] <jfanaian> and none seem to work at all :(
[06:23] <instabin> dynamicreflux: is it working now
[06:23] <m_billybob> Xenguy: iv been experiemnting with it for over a year now
[06:24] <m_billybob> Xenguy: needless to say, ive recently visted my local Frys, to buy removable drive trays . . .
[06:24] <jfanaian> i am able to install the driver on ndiswrapper, it recognizes it and the hardware as well. i can ndiswrapper -m and do modprobe ndiswrapper, but the wireless card just won't show in network-admin
[06:24] <cchance> dasguardian is not blocking a dam thing! What could be the error
[06:24] <Xenguy> m_billybob: hrm, dunno - it sounds a bit tricky to set up, but generally promising - that's all I've heard
[06:24] <m_billybob> Xenguy: well if you're interrested i can hook you up with a howtoforge howto
[06:24] <dynamicreflux> instabin, no it is not, im running aixgl when i should be running xgl
[06:24] <Xenguy> m_billybob: can you run d0ze on xen yet?
[06:24] <m_billybob> worked great for me
[06:24] <m_billybob> yes
[06:24] <Xenguy> m_billybob: sure
[06:24] <m_billybob> if the CPU is VT enabled
[06:25] <m_billybob> Xenguy: suggestion ##Xen
[06:25] <dgrant> can someone point me to a tutorial on how to add a package from feisty if I am using edgy?
[06:25] <Xenguy> m_billybob: that's a hardware constraint, yes?
[06:25] <Xenguy> m_billybob: K
[06:25] <m_billybob> those guys know much more than i
[06:25] <cchance> Nvm I found it it was the firewall
[06:26] <cchance> how can i save the rules though
[06:26] <dynamicreflux> instabin: im running aixgl so says the terminal, with composite turned off, further more, i need to get over to xgl it seems
[06:26] <m_billybob> Xenguy: first of all let me say the latest version ive used with this tutorial, was 3.0.2-2
[06:26] <m_billybob> i can help you out, as to where to find the binaries if you like
[06:26] <m_billybob> http://www.howtoforge.com/xen_3.0_ubuntu_dapper_drake
[06:26] <cchance> Hello? How do i save the firewall rules
[06:26] <Xenguy> m_billybob: tx, I'll read up a bit
[06:26] <jfanaian> does anyone have experience with ndiswrapper? i'm having problems installing my wlan.
[06:27] <instabin> !mac menu
[06:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac menu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:27] <LTL> cchance - /sbin/iptables-save
[06:27] <tabber> hi, anyone knows how to play .ape files?
[06:28] <dynamicreflux> instabin: gah this is a nightmare
[06:28] <dynamicreflux> instabin: i have read numerous docs contradicting eachother on which driver i should be using and such
[06:28] <cchance> thanks LTL
[06:29] <tabber> or how to convert them to mp3?
[06:30] <mackinac> tabber, i think xmms has a MAC plugin
[06:30] <White_Lightning> so which is better, #ubuntu on this server or #ubuntu on freenode
[06:30] <Flannel> White_Lightning: this is freenode
[06:30] <cveb> lol
[06:30] <kitche> tabber: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mac-port/xmms-mac-0.3.1.tar.gz?download
[06:30] <frogzoo> White_Lightning: is this a trick question?
[06:30] <White_Lightning> is irc.ubuntu.com linked to freenode?
[06:30] <frogzoo> White_Lightning: bingo
[06:30] <Flannel> White_Lightning: I suppose so, if that's where you connected.
[06:30] <unop> dgrant,  it's not a good idea to mix packages that way -- chances are the feisty package is going to depend on another feisty package and so on
[06:31] <macd> White_Lightning,  irc.ubuntu.com is an alias for chat.freenode.net.
[06:31] <instabin> dynamicreflux: I just installed the binary driver for nvidia from the repository
[06:31] <White_Lightning> no I get that I thought this was part of a different IRC network
[06:31] <dynamicreflux> does anyone in this channel have an X-series ati card working under HERD 3 with beryl and effects??????
[06:31] <tabber> kitche: thanks, i'll try installing that plugin
[06:32] <White_Lightning> my other install always connects through freenode and calls it that, this one I just installed (different comp) and I saw the server go by
[06:32] <phiqtion> how can i increase FPS on nvidia driver?
[06:32] <Flannel> dynamicreflux: #ubuntu+1 for feisty stuff
[06:32] <instabin> dynamicreflux: try #ubuntu-xgl
[06:32] <dynamicreflux> instabin keep in mind im ati man, NOT invidia
[06:32] <dynamicreflux> kk
[06:32] <dynamicreflux> thanks ill give it a shot
[06:32] <lordkeiden> anyone know how to force a package to install when it thinks that a dependency is not met?
[06:33] <cveb> this is really annoying
[06:33] <cveb> can't watch video :@:@
[06:33] <White_Lightning> I know beryl is just eye candy but I still have fun playing with the windows
[06:33] <ctfor1> has anyone heard of any recent problems with gnome crashing? everything keeps randomly shutting down and i go back to the login screen, and i think it's since i apt-got the most recent gnome update.
[06:33] <unop> White_Lightning,  connecting to #ubuntu on irc.ubuntu.com is the same as connecting to #ubuntu on freenode .. you seem to have come here throught the ubuntu server, i've come here through freenode
[06:34] <White_Lightning> anyway... any people in here play warcraft through wine? because I have that weird thing where the boxes, spell icons, and text works, but I have no sound (the install had sound, but the game doesn't) and no world images, like characters and other textures
[06:34] <beoba> ubuntu jabber server
[06:34] <White_Lightning> got it I've been around IRC for a long time I just thought this might be a different network like dal or EFnet or something
[06:34] <beoba> nah, freenode
[06:35] <jfanaian> how can i verify if ndiswrapper actually loaded my drivers correctly?
[06:35] <White_Lightning> I've run through all the howtos and non of them resolve the problem
[06:35] <unop> jfanaian,  ndiswrapper -l tells you
[06:35] <cveb> RAWR'
[06:35] <jfanaian> unop, well that is right and it shows it as present  (both hardware and driver)
[06:35] <cveb> wtf!
[06:35] <jfanaian> unop, but it still isn't working :(
[06:35] <cveb> that seveasPackage place
[06:36] <tabber> kitche: it complained that I need GLIB installed but i tried installing libglib2.0-0 and it says I already have the latest version
[06:36] <cveb> i add thr reposity and they all 404
[06:36] <cveb> :\
[06:36] <dynamicreflux> instabin: ppl in the other 2 channels arent active, is there only 1 driver for ati cards? or is there more? and does only one type work with beryl and the eye candy?
[06:36] <tabber> any ideas?
[06:36] <kitche> tabber: you need the -dev package
[06:36] <tabber> kitche: yeah i tried that too and it's also installed
[06:37] <jfanaian> unop, i'm not sure if you remember helping me earlier but i found out that the wireless card that was showing up was using the wrong drivers (bc34xx) and had to be removed
[06:37] <cveb> why is it so HARD to try and get .avi and dvds playing?!@
[06:37] <White_Lightning> dynamicreflux: if you're trying to get ATI to work with beryl it's not really worth the hassle, I gave up and have it on this machine (nvidia) and said to hell with it on the laptop. I mean it is cool and such, but it's a massive uphill battle
[06:37] <cveb> on winblows, they just work.
[06:37] <rbil> cveb: I can help you, but not in this channel. If you're interested in logging onto a different irc server, I can show yoiu want to do
[06:37] <kitche> tabber: what version of glib does it need also
[06:37] <cveb> rbil, I'm on quakenet.
[06:37] <kitche> cveb: .avi files can be anything if it's a plain .avi file then they just work
[06:37] <cafuego_> cveb: microsoft pays license fees to studios
[06:37] <jfanaian> unop, when i did so eth1 did not show up anymore, and i follow the howtos step by step until it gets to the part where you get on network-admin... i can never find the wlan :(
[06:37] <dynamicreflux> im willing to fight the battle white_lightning
[06:38] <instabin> !ati
[06:38] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:38] <White_Lightning> then godspeed friend
[06:38] <tabber> kitche: it gives this error when i do ./configure: "checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.2... no"
[06:38] <madbox> I am having a problem installing a wireless adapter, which came with my mobo, I have installed network-manager-gnome, it detects it but it says it has MIN connection and wont connect
[06:38] <madbox> and its RIGHT NEXT to it!
[06:38] <cveb> my name is "veb" on quakenet.
[06:38] <unop> jfanaian,  errm, now thats a real issue -- ndiswrapper has known to list loaded drivers/hardware but the device doesnt come online because of a driver mismatch -- ensure you have the right drivers
[06:38] <rbil> cveb: go to irc.bcwireless.net    and join #linuxtalk
[06:38] <cveb> ok
[06:38] <White_Lightning> Madpilot: is it the broadcom chipset?
[06:38] <tabber> and i have the latest version already installed
[06:38] <White_Lightning> madbox: is it the broadcom
[06:38] <madbox> erm, one min
[06:38] <Madpilot> White_Lightning, tab complete error?
[06:38] <madbox> its the one that comes with ASUS m2n32 SLi Deluxe?
[06:38] <witless> hello.  i have a slightly odd question.  is it possible to write a small utility that sends some kind of user-input messages to a window?
[06:38] <White_Lightning> lol yep
[06:39] <Madpilot> np
[06:39] <kitche> tabber: ok hmm glib2 should eb enough try the libglib1.2 and it's -dev package
[06:39] <madbox> how can i tell if its the broadcom?
[06:39] <witless> mouse movement, keystrokes, whatever?
[06:39] <jfanaian> unop, i will try downloading the drivers again from the HP's site...
[06:39] <witless> my situation is this: i connect to a windows box with RDP from my GNOME desktop.  the windows box has the screen saver set up to lock the console after a few minutes of inactivity.
[06:39] <madbox> White_Lightning,  can I pm you since it would be a little bit more peaceful?
[06:39] <jfanaian> unop, oh wait i just remembered the drivers are in an exe... how would i extract them?
[06:39] <witless> i want to prevent the screen saver from kicking in while i'm connected via rdp
[06:39] <White_Lightning> madbox: ok
[06:40] <unop> jfanaian,  from ubuntu you can use cabextract (and sometimes unzip) .. from windows, winzip or winrar
[06:40] <baconbacon> It must have been asked a million times already, but I'm asked to remove " linux-generic linux-image-generic" upon  apt-get -f install. Is it safe to remove?
[06:40] <tabber> kitche: it also said this: " The glib-config script installed by GLIB could not be found" and "If GLIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in you path"
[06:40] <jfanaian> unop, its not a self-extracting exe... it uses installshield i believe to extract the files, then it auto-runs the windows installer
[06:40] <jfanaian> but i will try it
[06:40] <White_Lightning> !broadcom
[06:40] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:40] <tabber> i tried searching for glib but it gave no results
[06:41] <unop> jfanaian,  but then again, not all .exes are self-extracting archives .. so you must then look at extracting the .inf and .sys files from the windows install
[06:41] <kitche> tabber: try the libglib1.2 package and see if that works
[06:41] <unop> jfanaian,  have you tried uncompressing that .exe?
[06:41] <tabber> kitche: ok ill try that
[06:41] <jfanaian> unop, i will try when i find them on the site, heh :)
[06:41] <unop> jfanaian,  hp might have a .zip file for you to download (usually called a developers package)
[06:41] <tabber> kitche: both the libglib and -dev, right?
[06:42] <madbox>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[06:42] <kitche> tabber: yes
[06:42] <LiENUS> aich eye
[06:42] <kitche> madbox: hmm odd you must have a space or something
[06:42] <madbox> Please wait 600 seconds before using REGISTER again
[06:43] <madbox> :(
[06:43] <White_Lightning> madbox: you have two
[06:43] <flammenwurfer> hello, everyone
[06:43] <White_Lightning> hi
[06:43] <Arigato> is KVM better than VMWare in terms of performance?
[06:43] <madbox> I am trying to but it says wait 600 sec :\
[06:43] <kitche> Arigato: no clue but KVM has a few bugs already from what I have seen
[06:43] <White_Lightning> Arigato : I don't use either but I hear good things about VMware
[06:43] <flammenwurfer> Does anybody know what "ACPI Getting cpuindex for acpiid 0x1" means?
[06:44] <madbox> Why wont it let me register?
[06:44] <kitche> madbox: it has a spam control that's why
[06:44] <White_Lightning> madbox: is it the first you've tried or have you attempted it a bit
[06:44] <madbox> erm
[06:44] <madbox> 3 times now
[06:44] <White_Lightning> madbox : nevermind
[06:45] <jfanaian> unop, this is exactly what i downloaded earlier and extracted from windows (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-41607-1&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=500264&os=228&lang=en) and it seems to be the version that supports my card but i can't find a zip download to retry =\
[06:45] <White_Lightning> madbox: that's why then
[06:45] <madbox> so wait 600 sec..
[06:45] <madbox> mkay..
[06:45] <unop> jfanaian,  you could try www.driverguide.com also
[06:45] <madbox> White_Lightning,  in order for me to check my chipset do i have to have the wireless card enabled?
[06:45] <White_Lightning> try lspci and see what you get
[06:46] <White_Lightning> should show you everything that it's recognizing
[06:46] <unop> jfanaian,  also have you tried linux native drivers for your broadcom chipset -- see !broadcom
[06:46] <jfanaian> !broadcom
[06:46] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:46] <madbox> drivers say RTL8187
[06:46] <jfanaian> unop, i tried the default ones loaded by ubuntu but that one doesn't work
[06:46] <flammenwurfer> anybody know what "ACPI Getting cpuindex for acpiid 0x1" means?  or what it's referring to?
[06:46] <White_Lightning> There's issues with broadcom chipsets, in fact I couldn't get mine to work with edgy so I bought a pcmcia card instead
[06:46] <madbox> drivers say RTL8187
[06:46] <ctfor1> has anyone come across gnome crashes caused by recent updates, particularly for 64 bit systems?
[06:47] <White_Lightning> I was able to get it to work with dapper but not the latest distro for some reason
[06:47] <LiENUS> Arigato,  kvm is different from vmware
[06:47] <LiENUS> kvm requires special processor extensions
[06:47] <White_Lightning> !realtek
[06:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about realtek - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:48] <White_Lightning> madbox: well, it's a realtek anyway
[06:48] <Aardfox> how do i connect to a router in Ubuntu if i have a key and the network name? I was connected just fine before, but I had to switch routers.
[06:48] <White_Lightning> madbox: that can at least narrow the search
[06:48] <madbox> k
[06:48] <madbox> thx for helping i appreciate it..
[06:48] <madbox> and he left :\
[06:49] <tabber> kitche: ok glib solved, now it says this "checking for XMMS - version >= 1.2.4... no" i have version 1.2.10
[06:49] <tabber> should i install the old version?
[06:49] <kitche> tabber: hmm odd maybe it's looking for the -dev package
[06:49] <MajorPayne> Ahh, running old oss applications is much better now that I have my Sound Blaster Live! installed.
[06:49] <unop> Aardfox,  if you switched routers -- you'll need to know what SSID and security mechanisms the new router uses -- once you do, you connect up the same way you did with the previous router

[06:54] <abo> I have the microphone level that keeps going down by itself, can anyone help? I open alsamixer, raize the <<mic>> level to the level I need, and then every now and then it goes down
[06:54] <con-man> le sigh
[06:54] <LiENUS> 598-195 == 400
[06:54] <con-man> I lagged
[06:54] <con-man> it was not intentional
[06:54] <samin> does anyone here know how to get  direct rendering working for a mobility radeon 7500 video card?
[06:54] <LiENUS> eww bc not included :(
[06:54] <m_billybob> LiENUS: i would prove you worng, if you sat here, and could see ;)
[06:54] <frogzoo> !fglrx | samin
[06:54] <ubotu> samin: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:54] <veb> can you only use beryl on nvidia cards?
[06:55] <con-man> you can use it on ati cards
[06:55] <m_billybob> LiENUS: that is of course, without issuing apt-get update / apt-get upgrade ;)
[06:55] <abo> samin, search for how to install fglrx
[06:55] <veb> ok cool :)
[06:55] <LiENUS> billyboby its right at 400mb if i subtract the hosted sites
[06:55] <veb> might get it then :D
[06:55] <con-man> I used it on my ati card for a while
[06:55] <jvictor> topic
[06:55] <samin> fglrx doesn't work for M7500, i don't think
[06:55] <LiENUS> billbob this includes apt-get update/upgrade
[06:55] <veb> thanks so much con-man.
[06:55] <veb> you're amazing.
[06:55] <con-man> heh
[06:55] <veb> :D:D:
[06:55] <veb> <-- infected by linux
[06:55] <con-man> it works BETTER with nvidia cards
[06:55] <LiENUS> the only reason its close to 600mb is because it already has like 6 sites hosted
[06:55] <veb> but it's fine with ATI?
[06:55] <andou> Who uses VSFTPD?
[06:55] <LiENUS> 5 sites
[06:55] <abo>  the microphone level that keeps going down by itself, can anyone help? I open alsamixer, raize the <<mic>> level to the level I need, and then every now and then it goes down

[06:56] <veb> how bad is beryl on ati?
[06:56] <con-man> it will work fine with ATI, but you have to use XGL
[06:56] <veb> and whats bad about XGL
[06:56] <m_billybob> LiENUS: hmmm, well when i used the regular Dapper install CD, installed in server 'mode' did apt-get clean, it also showed ~400MB
[06:56] <greywolf7> ok ive pasted the text in the paste bin
[06:56] <con-man> and XGL wasnt good for me, cause XGL wouldnt let me play world of warcraft

[06:58] <veb> is that racist?

[06:58] <ubotu> m_billybob: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[07:05] <m_billybob> me too
[07:05] <beuno> hi, anyone know why network manager sees all the wireless networks, but doesn't connect to any of them?    how can I debug?  I don't get any error messages
[07:05] <kitche> Bugz__: yep
[07:05] <quaal> m_billybob, no such luck
[07:05] <m_billybob> but im interrested in if quaal got his NTFS RAID array working in edgy
[07:05] <m_billybob> dahm.
[07:05] <brianski> beuno, comment out your interfaces in /etc/network/interfaces
[07:05] <flammenwurfer> has anybody gotten this message before? "acpi Getting cpuindex for acpiid 0x1"?
[07:05] <beuno> hi, anyone know why network manager sees all the wireless networks, but doesn't connect to any of them?    how can I debug?  I don't get any error messages
[07:05] <Bugz__> kitche, ok thanks
[07:05] <quaal> m_billybob, same error message i posted earlier
[07:06] <beuno> (sorry for the dupe)
[07:06] <brianski> beuno, please don't repeat yourself, i just answered you - comment out your interfaces in /etc/network/interfaces
[07:06] <kitche> theflyingfool: that is offtopic but anyways they didn't join just that linspire allows cnr work with other distros now
[07:06] <brianski> beuno, no prob
[07:06] <quaal> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdc1,
[07:06] <m_billybob> quaal: yeah seems Ubuntu is having issues with the hardware RAID superblock
[07:06] <quaal> oh hmm
[07:06] <quaal> i think i remember having to put superblock in the fstab line
[07:06] <quaal> when i did it successfully in mandrake
[07:06] <unop> beuno,  monitor syslog -- /var/log/{syslog,messages,dmesg} -- messages are usually dumped there
[07:07] <beuno> brianski, network manager works, I can see all the networks around me with the strengths for each one, it just doesn't connect, I already commented out ath0 from interfaces
[07:07] <jesselang> !edgykernel
[07:07] <ubotu> There is currently a server-side inconsistency preventing kernel upgrades to version 2.6.17-11. A bug has been filed, please be patient.
[07:07] <m_billybob> quaal: well when you fix that problem, im confident that it wil work, unfortunately, I'm of no help there
[07:08] <brianski> beuno, i'm afraid i don't know then
[07:08] <beuno> unop, would thw wifi connection errors be dumped there
[07:09] <beuno> brianski, any alternate method of connecting I can try that would give me more output?
[07:09] <unop> beuno,  should be yep
[07:09] <unop> beuno,  i believe you can use iwconfig from the command line
[07:09] <greywolf7> i fixed it i just blew out the user and remade the acount
[07:10] <brianski> beuno, i dunno, it "just worked" for me once i commented out the right interfaces
[07:11] <beuno> ok, I'm on win now, so I'll go back and give dmesg a look
[07:11] <beuno> I might be back
[07:11] <beuno> thanks
[07:11] <trythil> hi all, quick question about upgrading to feisty
[07:11] <Popoi> How do I change my deafult windows manager? ... I wanna change Konkeror to Dolphin.. please help!! :-!
[07:12] <trythil> when I run update-manager -c -d, the process errors out (supposedly) because of insufficient disk space on /boot -- it requires 40.8 MB, but I've sized it to only be ~22M (this machine was previously a Gentoo install, where I had more control over what went in it)
[07:12] <greywolf7> and again i aolegize for the past goof im new to the ubuntu setup with irc infact ubuntu as ahole
[07:12] <trythil> is there some way to do the upgrade without consuming that much space in /boot?
[07:12] <gradin> Popoi: the please help is more than likely gonna make people ignore you rather than help...
[07:12] <trythil> I mean, that seems a little high
[07:13] <Aardfox> Sorry I was afk...if anyone answered me. How do I switch which router i'm connected to in Ubuntu? I have a key and the name of the router's network (SSID?).
[07:14] <gradin> Aardfox: see iwconfig
[07:14] <unop> trythil, you should be able to create some space by moving something within /boot to another partition and leaving a symlink behind -- something like  ln -s /boot/grub /var/
[07:15] <Limitless_> so im trying to play an mp3, right... and it says:You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to install the necessary plugins.
[07:15] <fr500> hi
[07:15] <Limitless_> what decoder would i need, and how would i go about getting it? :x
[07:15] <fr500> is there a way to save all information on all the packages i installed so everything gets reinstalled upon reformat?
[07:15] <unop> trythil,  or remove /boot from /etc/fstab and point it to another location
[07:15] <kitche> !mp3|Limitless_
[07:15] <ubotu> Limitless_: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:15] <trythil> unop: well, thing I'm worried about is that the total size of /boot is smaller than what this thing needs
[07:15] <fr500> !backup
[07:16] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[07:16] <unop> !cloning
[07:16] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages", move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type "sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade"
[07:16] <trythil> unop: hmm
[07:16] <Limitless_> lol: funny but sad
[07:16] <Aardfox> gradin: I've done iwconfig and it hasn't really shown me anything useful. All i want to do is select my linksys router, put in the WEP key, and connect. Is it more complicated than that?
[07:16] <trythil> unop: and then (say) manually merge the real /boot and the "fake" /boot after update-manager is done?
[07:16] <trythil> or redirect grub to point at the new /boot
[07:16] <fr500> wow
[07:17] <unop> Aardfox,  edit your /etc/network/interfaces file and change your wireless link to reflect the changes
[07:17] <LTL> Aardfox - try kwifimanager
[07:17] <gradin> Aardfox: man iwconfig
[07:17] <fr500> does the live cd installer support lvm?
[07:17] <Aardfox> LTL: is that launched via the terminal?
[07:18] <LTL> Aardfox - it can be
[07:18] <gradin> Aardfox: iwconfig wlan0 essid <essid> key <key>
[07:18] <BlueEagl1> fr500: It did not do that as of Dapper. Not sure about Edgy.
[07:18] <LTL> inside X that is, Aardfox
[07:18] <unop> trythil,  ok, right now whats happening is /etc/fstab is mounting /boot from a seperate partition -- say you copy the contents of that partition to /var/grub/ .. you can then comment out the /boot entry in /etc/fstab and get /boot to be a symlink pointing to /var/grub .. if you know what i mean
[07:18] <Aardfox> gradin: all i have is ath0 and eth0
[07:18] <trythil> unop: ok
[07:18] <trythil> unop: yeah
[07:18] <fr500> BlueEagle: so alternate installer would be the best way?
[07:18] <Popoi> Hi. is there a way to change my default windows manager?
[07:18] <gradin> Aardfox: then do it with ath0 if that is your wireless card
[07:19] <BlueEagle> fr500: That has been the recomendation, yes.
[07:19] <BlueEagle> !lvm
[07:19] <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
[07:19] <unop> trythil,  that way you shouldnt have to worry too much about space because i suppose your /var partition has plenty
[07:19] <trythil> unop: correct.  I'm just wondering how much time I'll have to intercept update-manager :P
[07:19] <fr500> !fsck
[07:19] <ubotu> 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
[07:19] <trythil> unop: since I'll need to somehow move the stuff out of /var/boot (or whatever) to the real /boot
[07:20] <unop> trythil,  is update-manager downloading stuff now or installing stuff?
[07:20] <trythil> unop: it errored out and performed a rollback
[07:20] <fr500> another one
[07:20] <unop> trythil,  eh, other way around -- move stuff from /boot to /var/boot
[07:20] <trythil> unop: hmm
[07:20] <fr500> will ubuntu work if i move the hdd from one pc to another?
[07:20] <trythil> unop: I guess I'm not seeing how that won't completely confuse grub
[07:21] <Aardfox> gradin: if i have a linksys router, and when i set up the router i left its network name as linksys, would linksys be the essid? I have no idea what SSID means
[07:21] <unop> trythil,  /var/boot does not exist -- you will create it to house the contents of your present /boot  and then symlink /boot to it
[07:21] <Aardfox> gradin: nevermind, i googled SSID
[07:21] <samin> geeks
[07:21] <trythil> unop: because /boot is /dev/sda2, and /var is /dev/sda5
[07:22] <Aardfox> thanks for your help LTL and gradin, i'll try what you two said
[07:23] <unop> trythil, yea but grub is loaded into the mbr .. once it is loaded it accesses stage1 and stage2 from wherever /boot/grub points to -- in this instance it's accessing it from /dev/sda5/boot (provided you have symlinked already)
[07:23] <elkbuntu> samin, please disable that
[07:23] <samin> ahh that's better
[07:23] <trythil> unop: oh, ok
[07:23] <gradin> ...
[07:23] <trythil> unop: I'll give that a shot
[07:23] <gradin> thank you
[07:23] <Limitless_> thanks for the help, i just installed amarok
[07:23] <unop> trythil,  or if that doesnt work - move everything off of /boot to /var/boot and leave symlinks behind -- incase grub has difficulty reading symlinks
[07:23] <gradin> thankyou Madpilot
[07:24] <lane> Help please, I am running 64bit mepis beta is their any graphics card I can get that will accept 1024x1024 res?
[07:24] <unop> trythil,  i think this latter solution would be safer
[07:24] <trythil> unop: yeah, seems so
[07:24] <trythil> unop: well
[07:24] <trythil> unop: heh, actually, I think my only choice is solution #1 :P
[07:25] <trythil>  /dev/sda2 simply isn't big enough, so a different device needs to be mounted to /boot
[07:25] <trythil> wish I had the space to expand partitions
[07:25] <unop> trythil, i dont think you follow me at all
[07:25] <trythil> unop: it seems that way
[07:25] <tabber> any ape to mp3 (or any other format) converter?
[07:25] <tabber> anyone knows any?
[07:26] <gradin> Madpilot: hidden op?
[07:26] <unop> trythil,  if you leave symlinks behind -- space is not much of a consideration -- because what remains on that partition is just a bunch of shortcuts pointing to the real files and directories which have been moved to another partition completely
[07:26] <trythil> right
[07:26] <Madpilot> gradin, ops on Freenode are encouraged to only run op'd when they have to. I'm not the only one present ;)
[07:27] <gradin> Madpilot: ah, gives that whole be careful who you flame feeling to it lol
[07:28] <unop> trythil,  something like this -- mv /boot/grub /var/boot/grub; ln -s /boot/grub/ /boot
[07:28] <tabber> i keep getting the double linked list error :(
[07:28] <cryosphere> I installed xubuntu, but when I boot off my HD i cannot connect to the internet or use any usb devices, however this doesn't happen when I boot off the live cd
[07:28] <Madpilot> gradin, people should behave the same whether there's an op visible or not, frankly. (I've also got a script to do the highspeed op-kick-deop thing, that helps...)
[07:28] <unop> trythil,  to keep everything else happy /boot/grub/* exists -- but they really exist in /var/boot/grub/*
[07:29] <MajorPayne> lol, I am running Kubuntu as the host OS and I am running Kubuntu Live cd in a VM to fix a Windows XP vm.
[07:30] <cryosphere> any thoughts?
[07:30] <MajorPayne> Is there a way I can just mount the .vmdk?
[07:30] <trythil> unop: I wasn't aware the boot process understood how to deal with symlinks
[07:30] <trythil> unop: (unless it doesn't have to, and I'm missing something else)
[07:31] <bendersn1> wow
[07:31] <bendersn1> linspire and ubuntu
[07:31] <bendersn1> awesome!
[07:32] <bendersn1> ubuntu rocked but linspire had the proprietary software i needed
[07:32] <bendersn1> now we get the best of both :)
[07:32] <bendersn1>  LONDON and SAN DIEGO, Feb. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Canonical Ltd, the lead
[07:32] <bendersn1> sponsor of the popular Ubuntu operating system, and Linspire, Inc. the
[07:32] <bendersn1> developer of the commercial desktop Linux operating system of the same
[07:32] <bendersn1> name, today announced plans for a technology partnership that integrates
[07:32] <bendersn1> core competencies from each company into the other's open source Linux
[07:32] <bendersn1> offerings.
[07:32] <bendersn1> woohoo!
[07:32] <bendersn1> that alone made my day :)
[07:32] <olrrai2> hi
[07:32] <unop> trythil, well, ok, i understand your concern .. and frankly, what i would do too is try and keep everything on /boot as intact as possible and try and move the file and directories not used by grub off of /boot
[07:33] <trythil> unop: right
[07:33] <Aardfox> I did the iwconfig wlan0, ath0, and eth0 essid key thing and it said i didnt have access or something
[07:33] <Aardfox> i tried it with sudo also, and it said the same thing
[07:34] <OrangeOrange> hey.. i installed amarok.. need codec ... tried few two different codec and fail (does it matter if i dont uinstall the unworking one?)
[07:34] <unop> Aardfox, well, if you try iwconfig on a non-wireless interface, it'll complain just like that --- ifconfig -a  should tell you which interface is the wireless one
[07:34] <trythil> well, hmm
[07:35] <unop> OrangeOrange,  try the w32codecs from !seveas's repository
[07:35] <unop> !seveas | OrangeOrange
[07:35] <ubotu> OrangeOrange: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages. More info (and mirrors) on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[07:35] <trythil> hmm, I guess I'll give this another shot
[07:35] <trythil> unop: thanks :)
[07:35] <Aardfox> unop i tried it for all three, and they all said the same thing
[07:36] <hagabaka> with xserver-xorg-video-vmware, can I access a VMware console on a remote machine?
[07:36] <ahave_> i saw this post in the ubuntu forums...http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=294443 I am having the exact same problem and was wondering if anyone knew of a fix
[07:36] <unop> trythil, why dont youo post a list of files in your /boot and then i can suggest which files to move off -- du /boot
[07:36] <OrangeOrange> btw, cant they standarize the codecs?           anyway how can i uinstalled codecs? i want to save space..
[07:36] <tabber> okay i know what the problem is, the thing is that i have to pass this parameter "export MALLOC_CHECK_=0" to MAC, anyone knows how to do this?
[07:36] <tabber> please
[07:37] <unop> OrangeOrange, these windows codecs will never be standardised in debian and ubuntu as there a licensing issues and non-free concerns about them
[07:37] <unop> OrangeOrange,  to remove a package -- sudo aptitude remove packagename
[07:37] <OrangeOrange> unop: ok.. what if one forget the package name?
[07:38] <olrrai2> I need to change the mainboard and how to keep all ??!??
[07:38] <unop> OrangeOrange,  you can search for package names matching some keywords e.g.  dpkg -l | grep -i keyword
[07:38] <shatrat> OrangeOrange, you could search for it in synaptic and uninstall, or google for the package name
[07:38] <OrangeOrange> ok thanks!
[07:39] <shatrat> OrangeOrange, or you could just start guessing like I do.
[07:39] <OrangeOrange> also i install Tribler a torrent client.. but it crashed on me.. and i wnana uninstall it.. i cant find it in synaptic or anything
[07:39] <olrrai2> I need to change the mainboard and how to keep all ??!?? is probably that linux dont boot
[07:39] <OrangeOrange> and what's the "best" torrent client for ubuntu?        (i love utorrent for windows)
[07:39] <unop> OrangeOrange,  dpkg -l | egrep -i "trib"
[07:40] <unop> OrangeOrange,  i think bittorrent is the most widely used
[07:40] <Skulle1> hey people...i am using the 'add/remove' and have checked the 'show unsupported appz'.....some appz in the list say they are for KDE and some are for GNOME...wich ones can i install and wich ones i cant??
[07:40] <OrangeOrange> ok
[07:40] <OrangeOrange> unop: i did dpkg -l | egrep -i "trib"
[07:40] <OrangeOrange> unop: wat i do next?
[07:41] <unop> Skulle1,  you can install KDE apps on gnome and vice-versa
[07:41] <Skulle1> unop, without any command line interaction right?
[07:41] <Skulle1> i mean just using the add remove thingy
[07:42] <unop> Skulle1,  yes, but beware that installing a KDE app might install a lot of other stuff too .. the dependencies of the package
[07:42] <unop> OrangeOrange,  did that command return any output?
[07:43] <OrangeOrange> yes
[07:43] <OrangeOrange> unop: but i dont understand any of it
[07:43] <Skulle1> unop, oh...but the dependencies are mentioned when i check the box of the software for installation......thats it or is it some other dependencies u talk about that it wont inform me of?
[07:43] <unop> !pastebin | OrangeOrange, let me have a look
[07:43] <ubotu> OrangeOrange, let me have a look: 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)
[07:43] <trythil> unop: heh -- I'm not sure what it was complaining about /boot for, but kicking update-manager around a bit seems to have satisfied it without me changing the filesystem layout
[07:43] <mikejanssen> !newsgroup
[07:43] <ubotu> There are Ubuntu newsgroups via NNTP at news.gmane.org
[07:44] <mikejanssen> hmm
[07:44] <mikejanssen> whats the best newsgroup application for ubuntu...newsleecher work?
[07:44] <trythil> unop: so now it seems to be goign smoothly
[07:44] <unop> trythil,  cool :)
[07:45] <forQed> for some reason VMware won't recognize my USB harddrive (Ubuntu reads it just fine, but it is NTFS so won't write to it).  Any suggestions?
[07:45] <Skulle1> hmm....thnx fer da support to a 17 yr old guy...;)...
[07:45] <L4J> Hello
[07:45] <unop> Skulle1,  let's say you are running gnome now -- and you select k3b (a KDE app) to install, its probably going to depend on a lot of the other KDE libraries and if they arent installed, it'll attempt to bring them in for installing too
[07:45] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> unop ,god knows what had happened ..i disabled splach foonce and booted fine .. and since then it boots without any trouble even with splash..
[07:45] <cryosphere>  I installed xubuntu, but when I boot off my HD i cannot connect to the internet or use any usb devices, however this doesn't happen when I boot off the live cd
[07:45] <AWOSDev7360> I'm trying to lockdown a directory on my disk.
[07:45] <unop> GreyGhost-Ubuntu,  look like it just needed a kick up the backside :)
[07:45] <ahave> would this be a place to get help with airodump?
[07:46] <AWOSDev7360> It has home directories for all the network users that use this system.
[07:46] <Skulle1> unop: thnx a lot fer da clarification......catchya l8rz
[07:46] <L4J> I am downloading ubuntu... Does it install like an operating system such as windows?
[07:46] <_jvictor> is there anyone who can fix stuff with LCD brightness / Fn-keys here :) ?
[07:47] <_jvictor> L4J, yes
[07:47] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> unop ;)
[07:47] <AWOSDev7360> L4J I find Ubuntu easier to install than Windows.
[07:47] <Skulle1> yes it does install as well as run as a LIVE OS
[07:47] <AWOSDev7360> anyways, back to my problem
[07:47] <unop> L4J, errm, yes and no -- for the most part, yes
[07:47] <vinboy_> hi
[07:47] <L4J> What is Live OS?
[07:47] <cryosphere> xubuntu
[07:47] <vinboy_> i download the Feisty CD, how do I upgrade my currently ubuntu to feisty?
[07:47] <Skulle1> wich runs straight off the CD/DVD no installation files copied to the HDD
[07:47] <_jvictor> @L4J : some things are better... something maybe patchy
[07:47] <unop> L4J,  basically, you can run ubuntu purely from CD without installing it to the harddrive -- that defines a liveCD
[07:48] <L4J> oh
[07:48] <AWOSDev7360> Logically, I figured that if I chmod 544 homes...then the users can cd to the directory...then 700 the individual home directories (e.g. jsmith's home directory would have jsmith as owner and 700ed).
[07:48] <andou> hi.
[07:48] <L4J> Is ubuntu GUI like Windows?
[07:48] <vinboy_> yes
[07:48] <Skulle1> is it?
[07:48] <vinboy_> actually, windows is like ubuntu's GUI
[07:48] <Skulle1> i find its quite diff....
[07:48] <Skulle1> lol
[07:48] <vinboy_> the other way round
[07:48] <vinboy_> windows just copy stuff
[07:48] <AWOSDev7360> But obviously permissions aren't that logical, because when I did chmod 544 homes, it now denies access to all users except root
[07:48] <_jvictor> Linux is not Windows ...dont get in with pre notions
[07:48] <andou> Ok, I've installed LAMP server. Now, how can I access it with another computer?
[07:48] <Skulle1> yea thas true
[07:49] <vinboy_> nah i was joking man
[07:49] <L4J> Does it freeze like windows.. or is it like a mac?
[07:49] <OrangeOrange> unop: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4823/
[07:49] <AWOSDev7360> L4J like a Mac :)
[07:49] <L4J> oh okay
[07:49] <Skulle1> lol....the freezing part is farr gone i guess
[07:49] <L4J> Has it frozen on you any?
[07:49] <vinboy_> L4J: no it doesn't freeze like windows, but u need to cover it with duvet
[07:49] <L4J> duvet?
[07:49] <Skulle1> duvet?
[07:49] <andou> to keep it warm
[07:49] <vinboy_> so it doesn't get frozen
[07:49] <tabber> if I want to make a script to run a certain program every time i run the script, how can i do it?
[07:49] <unop> OrangeOrange,  sudo aptitude purge tribler  -- should remove it :)
[07:50] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> L4J: ,http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=751&slide=4
[07:50] <AWOSDev7360> L4J once but I did something very stupid...opened 15 Firefox tabs, connecting a USB camera while disconnecting a USB floppy drive and all this after running it for 25 days straight.
[07:50] <tabber> just as I would do using the terminal?
[07:50] <Skulle1> hmm...now thas what i call 'stable'
[07:50] <andou> How do I setup an FTP server after installing LAMP?
[07:50] <AWOSDev7360> Oh and :)
[07:50] <shmeelAway> any1 here know of software that will let me play my itunes purchased music on linux?
[07:50] <L4J> Which IRC Script can I use with ubuntu, or does it come with one pre-installed
[07:50] <L4J> ?
[07:50] <Skulle1> use GAIM
[07:50] <AWOSDev7360> L4J my Ubuntu server now has 103 days 23 minutes uptime :)
[07:50] <Skulle1> nicee
[07:51] <AWOSDev7360> very nice
[07:51] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> L4J: yeah gaim comes preinstalled
[07:51] <OrangeOrange> unop: thanks.. is there a alternative of bittorent.. beside azuerus.. i want something similar to utorrent
[07:51] <vinboy_> AWOSDev7360: that is very nice... sound like you are living in a peaceful neighbourhood
[07:51] <shmeelAway> !hymn
[07:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hymn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:51] <L4J> I was hoping to use the ubuntu as an alternative to my windows os which freezes.. I plan to use my pc for basic usage.. you know web surfing, email, irc.. etc.
[07:51] <AWOSDev7360> L4J it also comes with irssi which is what I am using now...it uses the Terminal (like DOS prompt) and you IRC through that.
[07:51] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> !torrent | OrangeOrange
[07:51] <ubotu> OrangeOrange: Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt)  -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[07:51] <AWOSDev7360> L4J yeah very nice...and no power interruptions :)
[07:51] <unop> AWOSDev7360,  544 will not allow group and world users access as you need execute permissions to be able to cd to a directory -- i would use 750 or 755 (if other users neeeded read access)
[07:51] <andou> ubotu: LAMP FTP tutorial please?
[07:51] <L4J> what about programs like AIM, and Yahoo?
[07:51] <AWOSDev7360> L4J yeah it is easy
[07:51] <Skulle1> ohh.....thas nice....
[07:51] <Skulle1> yea..use GAIM
[07:51] <olrrai2> anyone knows how to keep all config and installed software changing my motherboard?
[07:52] <andou> ! ftp tutorial
[07:52] <ubotu> ftp: The FTP client. In component main, is standard. Version 0.17-16 (edgy), package size 47 kB, installed size 152 kB
[07:52] <AWOSDev7360> unop ahhhhhhhhh.  okay thank you
[07:52] <OrangeOrange> !kde
[07:52] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[07:52] <Madpilot> L4J, gaim is designed to work with most IM protocols - IRC, AIM, YIM, etc etc etc
[07:52] <OrangeOrange> .
[07:52] <L4J> okay. Can I have both Windows and Ubuntu installed as Operating Systems at the same time?
[07:52] <Madpilot> !ftp
[07:52] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[07:52] <Skulle1> yea
[07:52] <AWOSDev7360> L4J It is possible and I do it...
[07:52] <Madpilot> L4J, yes, you can set up a dual boot
[07:52] <Skulle1> i m dual booting with xp
[07:52] <AWOSDev7360> L4J but you must "partition" your hard disk.
[07:52] <AWOSDev7360> !dualboot

[07:52] <_jvictor> any Ubuntu dev-team members here ?
[07:52] <L4J> How easy is it to take Ubuntu off of my computer (as an OS) if I decide later that I don't want it?
[07:53] <Skulle1> format its partition...i guess
[07:53] <AWOSDev7360> L4J you remove the Ubuntu partition and resize your Windows back to original size....not that hard
[07:53] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> L4J ,if u have an extra partition its gonna be a piece of cake
[07:53] <Skulle1> shud b easy
[07:53] <mneptok> L4J: that won't happen ;)
[07:53] <Madpilot> L4J, not hard, but you're far more likely to want to dump Windows ;)
[07:53] <AWOSDev7360> L4J yeah I agree with mneptok...it won't happen!  :)
[07:53] <L4J> Is there a tutorial or something online that I can keep as a referenfe
[07:53] <Skulle1> hehe

[07:56] <Skulle1> umm....ok
[07:56] <mneptok> AWOSDev7360: huh?
[07:57] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok I recognised that you are using irssi from your paste.

[07:57] <AWOSDev7360> olarrai2...try the #hardware channel (type "/join #hardware" into your IRC client)
[07:57] <mike01> how do i make a double click on window titles maximize?
[07:58] <olrrai2> need I install averithing again?
[07:58] <AWOSDev7360> olrrai2 no
[07:58] <Ayabara> I need some help making bluetooth work on my ibm lenovo r60. I tried following the howto, but I can't find any bt devices with hcitool dev
[07:58] <AWOSDev7360> olrrai2 well...not if you use the same motherboard "chipset".
[07:58] <olrrai2> what s about if non boot?
[07:58] <mike01> how do i make a double click on window titles maximize the window like in xp?
[07:58] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Skulle1 ,which version of gaim? i thionk they had a buggy msn release once..
[07:58] <AWOSDev7360> olrrai2 if you have another computer, you can come back here and we can help you.
[07:58] <Pntkl> sup
[07:58] <amonbish> hello
[07:58] <bayziders> How do I find my defualt gatewat?
[07:58] <Condiment> hey
[07:58] <Condiment> dunno
[07:58] <Pntkl> not sure
[07:58] <amonbish> don't know
[07:59] <AWOSDev7360> Skulle1 try upgrading your GAIM...my friend had the same problem until she upgraded.
[07:59] <olrrai2> I havent
[07:59] <devilsadvocate> bayziders, ask your network administrator
[07:59] <AWOSDev7360> olrrai2 then put the other motherboard back in.
[07:59] <Madpilot> mike01, try System->Preferences->Windows
[07:59] <AWOSDev7360> bayziders if you are using an ISP...and have a static IP...then call them.
[07:59] <olrrai2> can I repair ubuntu?
[07:59] <bayziders> I know you can do it in windows
[07:59] <mike01> Window manager "beryl" has not registered a configuration tool
[07:59] <bayziders> ipconfig/all
[08:00] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Skulle1 ,Gaim 2.0.0beta3.1  i believe... if so .. update..
[08:00] <devilsadvocate> bayziders, how do you do it in windows?
[08:00] <mike01> thats what i tried before...
[08:00] <AWOSDev7360> bayzider ohhhhh you want to KNOW what it is
[08:00] <snoops> hey, wow..channel has grown a bit. Umm can someone recommend to me a gnome scp client?
[08:00] <AWOSDev7360> bayzider try typing "ifconfig" ... like ipconfig with one letter different :)
[08:00] <bayziders> Lolkk
[08:00] <Madpilot> mike01, ah, if  you're running beryl, I can't help - I just run Gnome's metacity - try #ubuntu-xgl or #beryl
[08:00] <AWOSDev7360> bayzider if stands for network InterFace.
[08:00] <devilsadvocate> snoops, scp itself :P
[08:01] <devilsadvocate> snoops, you want a gui?
[08:01] <snoops> devilsadvocate indeedy :)
[08:01] <AWOSDev7360> bayzider it should give you all the details you need.  also you can read the man page (type "man ifconfig" on the command line) to learn how to use it to change your IP address, gateway, etc...
[08:01] <duckdown> Hi all.. Are there any people that know 'iptables' here?  I keep getting random probes and weird connection attempts from certain IP's, many from CHINA especially.. My router is a Linux one, with full iptables, but I haven't a clue on how to go about doing this.  Does anyone know a basic syntax I can use to drop/ignore ALL packets from an IP address?  Also, if I get packeted by someone, and I see their IP address coming up in my rout
[08:01] <duckdown> er logs, is there a syntax I can use to lessen the attack? (IE: Block these packets once I grab their IP?)
[08:01] <AWOSDev7360> snoops...the GNOME file manager doesn't work?
[08:01] <olrrai2> plz, suppose that I get a boot problem changing MB? is possible to "repair ubuntu"
[08:01] <devilsadvocate> bayziders, you can alos look at the "route" command, which you might need if you want to change your gw
[08:02] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown try the #iptables channel.
[08:02] <snoops> AWOSDev7360 oh it's a registered protocol? scp://?
[08:02] <bayziders> Wtf one is the gateway?
[08:02] <AWOSDev7360> snoops I believe so
[08:02] <mneptok> what's the computer say? it's fumbling now. it says "HEY JOE!" it's spelled it out! and you've got angst in your pants.
[08:02] <duckdown> thanks all
[08:02] <bayziders> Sorry, I'm a windows user just messing around in linux.
[08:02] <AWOSDev7360> bayziders hehe
[08:02] <bayziders> With a small understanding of bash
[08:03] <bayziders> So which one is my gateway?
[08:03] <dserban> snoops, try nautilus..  if that fails for you try gftp
[08:03] <AWOSDev7360> bayziders oh ohhhh.  gateway.  sorry :-(
[08:03] <AWOSDev7360> bayziders try "route"
[08:03] <cafuego_> bayziders: the gateway is not listed in `ifconfig'. Type 'route -n' for that.
[08:03] <unop> duckdown,  use a deny rule  -- something like - iptables -A input -s 198.211.65.0/24 -j DENY  (chaning the ipaddress range to accomodate the chinese ip addresses)
[08:04] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ wow.  -n.  new switch for me, looks cool :)
[08:04] <bayziders> Thanks
[08:04] <snoops> alright, cheers for the advice AWOSDev7360, dserban, devilsadvocate :)
[08:04] <bayziders> uber simple as expected
[08:04] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: uses numeric addresses, quicker coz no dns lookups.
[08:04] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ yeah I see that...gateway 67.22.96.1 is easier to see than atlsfl.67-22-96-1.adelphia.net :P
[08:05] <AWOSDev7360> snoops no problem.  :)
[08:05] <cafuego_> duckdown: Ideally you'd set up the firewall to block all traffic, except stuff you explicitly allow through, rather then the other way around.
[08:05] <duckdown> unop, I will try that, thanks alot :D
[08:05] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown yeah, I usually block inbound ports 0-1055, that helps kill a lot of hackers/spamers/whatever.
[08:06] <duckdown> cafuego_, it should be blocking everything, i keep seeing some DROP'ed attempts in the syslog
[08:06] <duckdown> but like, if someone tries to packet me or something, is there something i can do on the fly
[08:06] <unop> duckdown,  ahh, then you have to change nothing -- those are just warnings
[08:06] <cafuego_> duckdown: As long as they're dropped that's fine :-)
[08:06] <AWOSDev7360> my iptables is a little rusty...but doesn't DROP mean it sends back an ICMP "denied" message?
[08:06] <duckdown> unop, cool, but what if that same IP finally compromises something eventually, it would be easier to just completely block that IP from ever trying
[08:07] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: I use -P DROP and do some state matching magic to allow certain protocols
[08:07] <unop> duckdown,  well, if you have configured iptables right -- that ip address should have no access at all
[08:07] <cafuego_> duckdown: if it makes you sleep better at night, why not?  :-)
[08:07] <duckdown> cafuego_, it does :D  what syntax would I use for that then?
[08:07] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ right.  but does DROP mean "completely blocked and doesn't exist" or does it mean "blocked, and I'm telling the other computer that I'm dropping it"
[08:07] <duckdown> like i do have a couple ports open, like a BNC port
[08:08] <duckdown> and what not
[08:08] <unop> duckdown,  meaning -- allow access to IP addresses or services you need and then have a catch-all deny rule .. that should suffice
[08:08] <duckdown> the router would allow that probing IP to connect to that
[08:08] <cafuego_> duckdown: sudo iptables -I <chain> <position> -s <ip address> -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
[08:08] <duckdown> holy smokes
[08:08] <duckdown> thanks alot, i will try these :^D
[08:09] <AWOSDev7360> cafeugo_ REJECT...that's it!  that's the one that lets the hackers know that the computer exists
[08:09] <cafuego_> duckdown: I tend to make a chain called MORONS and route traffic through that first, so I justa dd such probles to the MORONS table.
[08:09] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ hahaha morons table
[08:09] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ isn't it better to DROP then REJECT?
[08:09] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: For actual ahckers (as opposed to scripts) I prefer -j MIRROR
[08:09] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: The default is DROP anyway
[08:09] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ what is mirror?  haven't heard of that one
[08:09] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: REJECT lists it as a closed port, DROP as filtered.
[08:10] <unop> AWOSDev7360,  depends if you want them to know traffic has been rejected
[08:10] <AWOSDev7360> unop right.
[08:10] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: MIRROR sets the dest IP to the place it came from, so they effectively end up trying to hack their own machine.
[08:10] <AWOSDev7360> unop DROP makes them believe there is no computer there
[08:10] <unop> AWOSDev7360,  in that example they get an ICMP message
[08:10] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ hahahaha wow
[08:10] <AWOSDev7360> unop right.
[08:10] <duckdown> wow someone is portscanning me literally right now, in the 334xx range
[08:10] <AWOSDev7360> unop that's what I thought.
[08:10] <duckdown> i neeed to block this guy
[08:10] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown same guy?
[08:10] <duckdown> well he is blocked, but permanently
[08:10] <duckdown> eb  9 01:59:48 unknown user.warn kernel: DROP IN=vlan1 OUT= MAC=00:14:bf:4a:8c:60:00:05:00:e2:1b:04:08:00:45:00:00:20 SRC=216.73.87.12 DST=74.111.177.121 LEN=32 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=2 ID=55520 PROTO=UDP SPT=14940 DPT=33440 LEN=12
[08:10] <duckdown> i see tons of those
[08:11] <shmeelAway> any1 know how to do things w/ a rpm file?
[08:11] <cafuego_> duckdown: There are some automated tools that keep an eye on your kernel logs and modify iptables blacklists as required.
[08:11] <cafuego_> shmeelAway: delete it - 'rm <file>'
[08:11] <AWOSDev7360> !rpm | shmeelAway
[08:11] <ubotu> shmeelAway: 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)
[08:11] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ lol...
[08:11] <shmeelAway> damn
[08:11] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ but aren't you worried some noob is actually gonna DO that one of these days?
[08:12] <shmeelAway> i can't install limewire then
[08:12] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: delete the rpm file? What would be the problem? ;-)
[08:12] <mneptok> shmeelAway: sure you can
[08:12] <m1chael> im sure you guys have seen this question a million times, but.... is it possible to get firefox to play embedded movies? i can play movies if i download them... i followed some instructions and it seems like i did things correctly
[08:12] <unop> duckdown, it looks like you already have a rule there denying access to that ip address -- you are just warned about it thats all
[08:12] <cafuego_> !info limewire
[08:12] <ubotu> Package limewire does not exist in edgy, edgy-seveas
[08:12] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ hahaha
[08:12] <m1chael> but its not working for me
[08:12] <AWOSDev7360> m1chael sure...Google for MediaPlayerConnectivity.
[08:13] <shmeelAway> yea, i think i just saw, it's just not on limewire's site
[08:13] <unop> !info mozilla-mplayer
[08:13] <AWOSDev7360> m1chael and of course Firefox can play Flash movies
[08:13] <ubotu> mozilla-mplayer: MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.31-1 (edgy), package size 467 kB, installed size 1616 kB
[08:13] <duckdown> unop, yeah, default is every port closed, but there are a few obscure ports i do allow public access to, like a BNC for my friends and a web interface and what not, I want to block that source IP from EVERYTHING forever, so he cant even connect to the open ports
[08:13] <AWOSDev7360> unop wow...that would come in handy..can't believe I haven't seen that before :o
[08:13] <duckdown> it would let him connect to the BNC if he finds the right port
[08:13] <mneptok> shmeelAway: do you need Limewire, or will any Gnutella client be OK?
[08:13] <duckdown> if he keeps scanning, he will
[08:13] <mackinac> !frostwire
[08:13] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[08:13] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown yeah and that is dangerous.
[08:14] <m1chael> i got it to play flash
[08:14] <cafuego_> duckdown: Allow the BNC *only* for your friends IP (range)
[08:14] <shmeelAway> i was hoping for limewire
[08:14] <devilsadvocate> m1chael, by embedded movies do you mean youtube and the like or mgp files?
[08:14] <shmeelAway> but i'm thinking any will do
[08:14] <unop> duckdown, well, if i were you -- i would install the knockd daemon and configure it so that your friends have to knock on a few port numbers for iptables to open up and allow just their ip addresses access
[08:14] <duckdown> cafuego_, some of them are dynamic, some of them connect from work, etc
[08:14] <duckdown> is there like an
[08:14] <mneptok> shmeelAway: i can give you a hnd in a PM if you want.
[08:15] <cafuego_> duckdown: Dynamic are only at mosta  /16 usually. Work would have a specific IP range too.
[08:15] <mneptok> *hand
[08:15] <shmeelAway> alright sure
[08:15] <m1chael> i can view youtube
[08:15] <duckdown> iptables --source bad.ip.x.x -deny ALL
[08:15] <duckdown> type thing
[08:15] <kupesoft> What's going with "apt-get upgrade" telling me ""The following packages have been kept back:  linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic"?
[08:15] <duckdown> over and out
[08:15] <m1chael> but cannot view like porn sites that stream mpgs
[08:15] <duckdown> keeps it blocked from everything
[08:15] <kupesoft> What's going *on
[08:15] <m1chael> i think you guys can understand the severity of this issue by my last comment
[08:15] <m1chael> lol
[08:15] <AWOSDev7360> unop...isn't that exploitable in the fact that if the hacker happens to guess the ports to knock on
[08:15] <cafuego_> duckdown: more or less - check /usr/share/doc/iptables/html   :-)
[08:15] <AWOSDev7360> m1chael haha
[08:16] <AWOSDev7360> m1chael check that mozilla-mplayer package.
[08:16] <unop> kupesoft,  those packages require you to explicitly upgrade --as you can experience problems sometimes or its often unnecessary to upgrade them
[08:16] <duckdown> i need an emergency syntax as soon as possible to thwart this scanner, if someone can PM me one or say one here even i will try it right now
[08:16] <duckdown> i will read the page for sure though
[08:16] <AWOSDev7360> kupesoft you have to specifically request that those packages be upgraded.
[08:16] <kupesoft> unp, AWOSDev7360: How?
[08:16] <cafuego_> duckdown: For stuff like that I prefer to only allow ssh (with a certificate) and tunnel other sruff via that ssh connection.
[08:17] <cafuego_> duckdown: sudo iptables -I INPUT 1 -s <source ip> -j REJECT
[08:17] <unop> AWOSDev7360,  depending on how you configure knockd .. theres an option to use one-time-passwords (OTP) so that you never have to use the same combination/passphrases twice
[08:17] <duckdown> cafuego_, thanks alot man, much appreciated
[08:17] <duckdown> i will definitely read
[08:17] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown iptables -I INPUT --source ip.add.res.s/mask -j DROP
[08:17] <cafuego_> duckdown: That will insert that rule as #1 in the INPUT chain.
[08:17] <AWOSDev7360> unop ah
[08:17] <starz> !ati
[08:17] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:17] <duckdown> thanks guys, you rock
[08:17] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown :-)  also I would still DROP instead of REJECT.
[08:18] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown that way he doesn't know your computer exists
[08:18] <duckdown> sweet
[08:18] <unop> AWOSDev7360,  but you can rest knowing that the hacker will need to be on the same broadcast medium (i.e. something like your LAN) to be able to sniff traffic to your computer .. so then, a combination is quite safe
[08:18] <duckdown> man, i am getting alot of connection attempts on "1720"
[08:18] <duckdown> from bulgaria to singapore now
[08:18] <AWOSDev7360> unop ah okay
[08:18] <duckdown> what the hecks port 1720
[08:19] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown I will check hold on
[08:19] <loca|host> anyone can help me ? my CPU Fan wont stop with Ubuntu, it does with Windows ;(
[08:19] <duckdown> AWOSDev7360, Awesome man thanks
[08:19] <CodyLoco> loca|host: Unplug it.
[08:19] <CodyLoco> :P
[08:19] <cafuego_> duckdown: Some MS exploit probably.
[08:19] <loca|host> :D
[08:19] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown H.323 (Microsoft NetMeeting)
[08:19] <unop> duckdown,  1720 corresponds to voice-over-ip calls (h.323)
[08:19] <CodyLoco> it will at least stop it
[08:20] <Ayabara> how can I adjust gamma on a laptop with an ati card?
[08:20] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown check out http://www.grc.com/port_1720.htm
[08:20] <duckdown> is that exploitable? how odd
[08:20] <duckdown> thanks again guys
[08:20] <CodyLoco> I'm starting to think Ubuntu isn't worth all the hastle
[08:20] <kupesoft> unp: I can't get the upgrade...
[08:20] <unop> duckdown,  only if you run a h.323 server .. something like gnome-meeting or ekiga
[08:20] <AWOSDev7360> duckdown "...denial of service exploits for port 1720 have been developed..."  on that linky
[08:20] <duckdown> ubuntu is amazing
[08:20] <duckdown> why would you think that
[08:20] <CodyLoco> Because it has been two weeks and I still can't get it to run
[08:20] <duckdown> unop, does a VNC qualify as that?
[08:20] <duckdown> rut roh, i run one of those
[08:20] <duckdown> not on that port though
[08:21] <cafuego_> duckdown: Check the first half of "Microsoft netmeeting" and then ask again whether it might be exploitable ;-)
[08:21] <duckdown> AWOSDev7360, crap :D
[08:21] <unop> kupesoft,  sudo aptitude install linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic
[08:21] <unop> kupesoft,  that ought to upgrade them
[08:21] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_, duckdown: both of you make me laugh :D
[08:21] <cafuego_> duckdown: vnc is *really* best tunneled over ssh.
[08:21] <unop> duckdown,  VNC does not qualify as a VoIP server, no :)
[08:21] <JohnSteele> anyone have any tips for 64 amd dual vista tips?
[08:21] <m1chael> how can i see which packages have been installed?
[08:21] <duckdown> hehehe
[08:21] <unop> m1chael,  dpkg -l
[08:22] <cafuego_> JohnSteele: Yup, "don't"
[08:22] <unop> lol
[08:22] <JohnSteele> cafuego: hehe
[08:22] <AWOSDev7360> haha
[08:22] <JohnSteele> 6.06 aint gonna work eh?
[08:23] <cafuego_> JohnSteele: It probably will, I just personally think it'd be better if poeple didn;'t use vista, or try to use vista.
[08:23] <burepe> My azureus changed to thai or something. No other programs changed. Anyone know how to fix this?
[08:23] <JohnSteele> Yeah, not my choice, but it just stops at network... Got 20Gig part unused...
[08:24] <gansinho>  hello, please guys, where should I create a script to show an option in the menu when I right click somewhere?
[08:24] <JohnSteele> no boot: options?
[08:25] <unop> burepe,  it's probably a language or font setting for azureus you need to change .. but if the interface is in thai, its going to be hard knowing where to look .. errm, reinstall azureus?
[08:25] <unop> gansinho,  google "nautilus scripts"
[08:25] <duckdown> whats with China and their fascination with my computer
[08:26] <burepe> unop: can you tell me the location? I think I can figure it out. Some of it is in English and I am used to doing that kinda thing with other languages
[08:26] <unop> duckdown, just a majority of moron script kiddies living on the continent of asia :) china being the biggest country on it and hence a bigger proportion of idiots from china noticed
[08:26] <burepe> unop:  or the path I mean
[08:26] <duckdown> :D
[08:27] <unop> burepe,  errm, i have no idea really, never used azureus
[08:27] <burepe> Found it
[08:27] <burepe> thanks
[08:27] <unop> burepe,  it cant be that hard -- have a look around and see what you can find
[08:27] <unop> burepe,  see :) you did it even before i could say "bingo" :)
[08:28] <gansinho> unop, I've already googled it, if you dunno you don't need to be that impolite, instead of that you could say that you don't know, or just don't say nothing
[08:28] <burepe> unop I wasn't sure if it was a ubuntu setting or azureus that was doing it. Thanks
[08:29] <burepe> that was totally fine.
[08:29] <unop> gansinho,  heh, notice that atleast i gave you a hint .. and i'm sorry you're so insecure you perceive my help to be antagonism
[08:29] <dime> /home/username/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
[08:29] <AWOSDev7360> gansinho...not trying to cause trouble but you probably should have *said* that you googled it already.
[08:30] <unop> gansinho,  and you cant have looked very far if you didnt see this http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/ (first link on google)
[08:30] <gansinho> unop, i found the script there
[08:31] <gansinho> unop, however in the site they don't give an exact explanation, they say that might be at two locations, I tried both and withuot succes, so I came here looking for someone that already has some scripts and could give me the exact location
[08:32] <unop> gansinho, well, what can i say? it says on the home page "You can download all of the scripts on this site at once in a tar.gz archive. To use, just do "tar -xvzf nautilus-scripts.tar.gz" or use one of the archive extraction scripts above and move the ones you want into ~/.gnome/nautilus-scripts. Even better, they are already organized hierarchically in a nautilus-scripts directory, so you can just extract the entire archive int
[08:32] <unop> o ~/.gnome and you are good to go."
[08:32] <gansinho> ok unop I've already tried, as I already said, thanks by the help anyway
[08:35] <unop> i dont understand how someone expects us to know everything he's done .. like we all have crystal balls on your desktops
[08:35] <duckdown> # iptables -I MORONS 1 -s 61.178.73.90/24 -j DROP
[08:35] <duckdown> iptables: No chain/target/match by that name
[08:35] <unop> aptitude install crystal-ball=2.10 :)
[08:35] <DARKGuy> XD
[08:37] <AWOSDev7360> haha
[08:37] <unop> duckdown,  you'll need to create a table by that name -- but its better if you just use the default
[08:37] <duckdown> okay cool, i just used 'input'
[08:37] <AWOSDev7360> hehe
[08:37] <duckdown> :^D
[08:37] <duckdown> screw you, china
[08:38] <duckdown> leave me alone

[08:42] <unop> incorrect,  well, I use gvim .. but there's eclipse which is pretty good -- there are also a few from mozilla that are suited just for webdev
[08:42] <slavekk> :-(((((((((((((((((((((((((((

[08:46] <lnostdal> AWOSDev7360, lemme check what the x-server i'm using is called ..  i have WinXP running under vmware :)
[08:46] <stinger_au> AWOSDev7360, nope

[08:49] <m1chael> my resolution is on 1600x1200 under system , preferences , screen resolution... but it still seems a little grainy, with lines going through video... how can i make it crisp?
[08:50] <beoba> oh, look at that, its actually a command
[08:50] <AWOSDev7360> at mneptok's request, /me slows down.
[08:50] <AWOSDev7360> m1chael try even bigger.
[08:50] <slavekk> how to restet sound drivers setting to install it one more time?
[08:50] <crav> refresh rate?
[08:50] <stinger_au> anyone else here done a commandline install before with 6.10 ?
[08:50] <lnostdal> duckdown, xming will enable you to start an X-application remotely (xmms on ubuntu for instance) then have it displayed locally on Windows (xmms shows up on your windows-screen)
[08:50] <m1chael> won't it mess up my monitor if i do it too much?
[08:51] <siconsole> why dpkg --configure -a took so long and made my cpu util go high? T_T
[08:51] <mneptok> AWOSDev7360: if *every* word that even might be *vaguely* offensive results in !langauge then the warning becomes meaningless.
[08:51] <m1chael> oh, i cant go any farther than 1600x1200
[08:51] <duckdown> lnostdal, could I run a konqueror or firefox from a remote machine?
[08:51] <lnostdal> Web3.0 ftw. :)
[08:51] <Byan> how do I get network-manager to work..
[08:51] <duckdown> i am using KDE & ubuntu
[08:51] <lnostdal> duckdown, yes
[08:51] <AWOSDev7360> m1chael that depends.  if you have the manual you can see what it's optimal refresh rate and display resolution is.
[08:51] <Byan> right now it says network unavaliable
[08:51] <duckdown> sweet!
[08:51] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok okay, sorry.  :-(
[08:51] <crav> kde + ubuntu = kubuntu?
[08:51] <AWOSDev7360> crav yes
[08:51] <mneptok> AWOSDev7360: no worries.
[08:51] <crav> just making sure i'm not retarded
[08:51] <duckdown> i installed it as ubuntu
[08:52] <AWOSDev7360> crav no, you're not :D  and also, XFCE + Ubuntu = Xubuntu.
[08:52] <foutrelis> duckdown: You installed Ubuntu and then apt-geted kubuntu-desktop :P
[08:52] <crav> i'm still very much a linux n00b
[08:52] <duckdown> foutrelis, yup :D
[08:53] <AWOSDev7360> foutrelis wouldn't that be apt-GOT?
[08:53] <AWOSDev7360> like "I apt-got xmms"

[08:53] <crav> nice
[08:53] <duckdown> but it just says cannot connect to X server
[08:53] <AlpineGuy> I'm forgetting what a strong permission set should be.  something like set uid=7736  ?
[08:53] <mneptok> crav: you may or may not be a retard, but you correctly sussed the Ubuntu/Kubuntu difference. ;)
[08:53] <AWOSDev7360> foutrelis that's okay, I find it funny "apt-getted" vs "apt-got" :)
[08:53] <foutrelis> *is not
[08:54] <crav> i'm new enough that laziness has prevented me from fixing the wireless on this laptop
[08:54] <crav> i've been chained to the desk for 2 weeks
[08:54] <lnostdal> duckdown, does ip.com currently run a x-server? .. ups .. and btw. it should be -X .. not -x
[08:54] <mneptok> crav: now i'm aroused ...
[08:54] <AWOSDev7360> crav aw.  well wireless is REALLY hard
[08:54] <AWOSDev7360> o_O
[08:54] <duckdown> lnostdal, yep, its running X.. kdm and the whole 9 yards
[08:54] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok: I have a wireless problem too!
[08:54] <duckdown> its kubuntu, its my friends server
[08:54] <mneptok> crav: what wireless chipset do you have?
[08:55] <lnostdal> duckdown, ok, try -X then .. works here :)
[08:55] <crav> mneptok: broadcom 4318
[08:55] <AWOSDev7360> crav, mneptok: same here.

[08:56] <duckdown> like login to kde
[08:56] <crav> mneptok: HP DV 8305us
[08:56] <lnostdal> duckdown, you can :)
[08:56] <AWOSDev7360> it turns out the card is dead...it died JUST as I switched from Linux to Ubuntu so I thought it was Ubuntu until I put XP back on and it still didn't work :P
[08:57] <duckdown> lnostdal, beauty!! :D thanks man
[08:57] <mneptok> crav: Cardbus slot?
[08:57] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok he said it was preinstalled
[08:57] <crav> yes
[08:57] <mneptok> crav: lemme find you an uber-cheap card that Just Works.
[08:57] <lnostdal> duckdown, if you want to do this over slower links i'd try freenx/nomachine though (the free but non-opensource version works better) .. but locally ssh -X works ok :)
[08:58] <rredd4> AWOSDev7360  i have used ndiswrapper (marvell chipset) with my laptop with no problems
[08:58] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok me too!
[08:58] <duckdown> well im using kubuntu on my laptop, but have a shell on a buddies kubuntu machine.... and i am running konqueror on his box with the ssh -X :D
[08:58] <AlpineGuy> No ideas on strong permissions, i take it
[08:58] <duckdown> i want to try running 'startx' or something
[08:58] <AWOSDev7360> rredd4 yeah.  it was weird.  when I brought the wlan0 interface down, it brought eth0 (built-in NIC) down too and the only way to get EITHER up is to reboot
[08:59] <AWOSDev7360> rredd4 and it would only be connective for 35 seconds after I brought wlan0 up then they both stopped working
[08:59] <AWOSDev7360> it was SUPER strange.
[08:59] <crav> mneptok: i'd like to just use this, i'm sure there's a way to get it to work
[08:59] <rredd4> AWOSDev7360  i guess your just lucky!
[08:59] <rredd4> lol
[08:59] <felixhummel> !autostart
[08:59] <ubotu> To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[08:59] <AWOSDev7360> rredd4 hahaha
[08:59] <AWOSDev7360> I should go now, sorry.
[08:59] <AWOSDev7360> Bye all!
[08:59] <june_> !update
[08:59] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[09:00] <AWOSDev7360> oh wait
[09:00] <AWOSDev7360> I want that uber-cheap card
[09:00] <unop> AlpineGuy,  strong permissions? for files?
[09:00] <rredd4> AWOSDev7360  are you sure you are using the correct drivers?
[09:00] <mneptok> crav / AWOSDev7360 :  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833156172  <--- 108Mb/sec Cardbus card supported by MadWiFi
[09:00] <AWOSDev7360> rredd4 yeah, it connected for 35 seconds then it caused both (wireless and wired) to stop working until next reboot
[09:00] <AlpineGuy> Yes, there's a presribed UID set.  something like 7736.  does this ring a bell?
[09:00] <mneptok> (30 bucks)
[09:00] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok!!!!
[09:00] <AlpineGuy> prescribed.
[09:00] <AWOSDev7360> wheeee
[09:01] <crav> mneptok: will this work out of the box, or am i gonna get to run through ndiswrapper?
[09:01] <AWOSDev7360> O_O
[09:01] <AWOSDev7360> it's MIMO!
[09:01] <AWOSDev7360> w00t
[09:01] <AWOSDev7360> bye all.
[09:01] <mneptok> crav / AWOSDev7360: on Edgy you'll need to install linux-restricted-modules
[09:01] <insta> can anyone recommend some cheap 54g USB wifi cards with native or near-native linux support?   (that sounds like the attractive, single, mentally stable, pick two challenge ...0
[09:01] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok I run dapper :S
[09:01] <crav> mneptok: as do i
[09:01] <unop> AlpineGuy,  UID or octal permissions?  1750 reminds a bell -- but thats not for a UID -- and the UID doesnt (shouldnt) have an effect on permissions
[09:01] <felixhummel> I'm on an Edgy server here and simply want to start "hellanzb.py; paster serve hella.ini" as my user every time the server is booted. How do I do this?
[09:01] <mneptok> AWOSDev7360: that card will work out of the box
[09:02] <AWOSDev7360> insta look at the linky mneptok posted
[09:02] <insta> felixhummel: in /etc/rc.local (?), put "su yourusername /path/to/hellanzb.py"
[09:02] <mneptok> insta:  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833156172  <--- 108Mb/sec Cardbus card supported by MadWiFi
[09:02] <AWOSDev7360> the one I'm drooling at :P
[09:02] <ndlovu> I see there's an updated kernel - any idea what ABI bump to -10 means in the changes?
[09:02] <unop> felixhummel, you can add startup scripts using update-rc.d
[09:02] <insta> ah.
[09:03] <insta> yeah the whole "smart" thing isn't turned on this evening
[09:03] <AlpineGuy> unop: Hmm, perhaps i'm confusing the environment variable UID for something else
[09:03] <insta> bah that's not usb
[09:03] <mneptok> (and no, i don't work for TrendNet) :P
[09:03] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok so uh, I do nothing!?  just plug it in, turn it on and w00t!?
[09:03] <mneptok> AWOSDev7360: 'zackly. although you might want network-manager-gnome to browse available APs.
[09:04] <nalioth> mneptok: oh sultan of late-night, does that card work on dapper?
[09:04] <mneptok> nalioth: 100%
[09:04] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok I already have Kwifimanager (yeah, I really should be in #kubuntu)
[09:04] <unop> AlpineGuy,  the UID env.var refers to the current user's UID -- which is the same thing i am talking about it too -- it shouldnt make an impact on file permissions
[09:04] <AlpineGuy> hmm, Linksys' stuff has really seemed to have degraded ever since Cisco bought them out.  I'd recommend Netgear's stuff if you're budget-conscious but still want decent quality
[09:04] <mneptok> ARGH!~
[09:04] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok it didn't get really good ratings, are you giving me your word it won't puke 6 months from now?
[09:04] <mneptok> heounxueaoxbeaxdh ntuoebuertdxrcea MadWiFi Trac
[09:04] <mneptok> ignore that card
[09:05] <slavekk> hi
[09:05] <stinger_au> lol i am having to do the install all over again, because you have to hit esc and go to user setup
[09:05] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok ...?
[09:05] <slavekk> help!!!
[09:05] <rredd4> AlpineGuy i use netgear, trouble free!
[09:05] <slavekk> problem with souncard on-board (realtek ac97) first time i've installed drivers i have sound while playing avi and mp3, but no in firefox or in skype
[09:05] <squeaks> hello, i've been searching for a while, does anyone have a how-to for cross-compiling?
[09:05] <stinger_au> lol then continue with the install
[09:05] <agliv5> Greetings all :) Say, what's the fastest way to determine the bitrate of a video file? Gspot doesn't work for ubuntu...
[09:05] <stinger_au> otherwise you don't get a user account
[09:05] <AWOSDev7360> stinger_au hahahaha
[09:05] <mneptok> MadWiFi puts cards on their "Supported Cards" page with the description "NOT SUPPORTED"
[09:05] <mneptok> losers.
[09:05] <nalioth> mneptok: got any suggestions for a USB wifi card that works o-o-t-b ?
[09:05] <unop> AlpineGuy,  quality aside -- the linksyses are easier to "hack" and get linux running on :)
[09:05] <stinger_au> whoever was the bright spark that came up with that and without documenting it should be given an award
[09:05] <devilsadvocate> slavekk, you probably need flashpayer 9. 7 doesnt doo sound all that well
[09:06] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok ARGH :O :O :O :O <censored>
[09:06] <lnostdal> duckdown,
[09:06] <AlpineGuy> Well, facts are facts.  I have a Linky router and lsys has been extremely slow to release new firmware.  and most new firmware has been buggy at best, either introducing new bugs or breaking things that once worked.
[09:06] <insta> slavekk: do you mean flash in firefox doesn't have sound?
[09:06] <lnostdal> ups .. ignore that
[09:06] <duckdown> hi
[09:06] <slavekk> but how to restore origin settings, i have no sound at all!!!
[09:06] <duckdown> oh :(
[09:06] <AWOSDev7360> lnostdal haha
[09:06] <unop> AlpineGuy,  sounds like everything in the *nix world tho :)
[09:06] <mneptok> CARDBUS 802.11 CARD THAT WORKS - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833156164  -  http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility#TEW441PC
[09:06] <slavekk> yes in skype and in firefox
[09:06] <AlpineGuy> ohh no doubt, lsys makes it easy
[09:07] <mneptok> and THAT card i actually own. and it works.
[09:07] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok thank you :)
[09:07] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok yay personal review!
[09:07] <cafuego_> Hmm, my madwifi oopses the feisty kernel very hard.
[09:07] <duckdown> AlpineGuy, you should try running tomato firmware
[09:07] <duckdown> or Thibor
[09:07] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok now one more thing...
[09:07] <devilsadvocate> slavekk, mp3 sound is working right?
[09:07] <Alarm> hello , i see three packages that are upgradeable ( linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic) but apt-get upgrade doesnt update them at all
[09:07] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok I need something that is PC card ONLY ONLY ONLY ONLY
[09:07] <AlpineGuy> unop: only most stuff in the *nix world can be fixed by developer/users :)
[09:07] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok not CardBus but just *PLAIN* PC Card
[09:07] <cafuego_> Alarm: Yup, known bug. Will hopefully be fixed soon.
[09:07] <unop> Alarm,  those packages need to be manually installed to be upgraded
[09:07] <insta> slavekk: what I'm seeing, you need to install flashplayer 9 instead ... that will restore sound in firefox
[09:07] <slavekk> now i lost sound even for mp3 and avi :-(
[09:08] <slavekk> ok
[09:08] <insta> slavekk: what did you just change?
[09:08] <Alarm> well i will leave it then for now :) till its been fixed
[09:08] <Alarm> thank u
[09:08] <AlpineGuy> Hmm.. i wonder if that'll work on my BEFSX41.  The only 3rd party firmware i've seen are for the WRTxxx model wireless routers.
[09:08] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok do they make those at ALL anymore?
[09:08] <unop> Alarm,  they arent upgraded because they usually dont need to be .. or require your knowledge of the upgrade as they can cause potentially big problems
[09:08] <slavekk> insta: http://forum.ubuntu.pl/viewtopic.php?t=1017
[09:08] <crav> when i plug in my USB HDD, it won't allow me to view files until i disable and enable it. Is there a quick way?
[09:08] <AlpineGuy> what's the URL for this Tomato firmware?
[09:08] <AWOSDev7360> crav yeah right a script
[09:08] <slavekk> but i have no gnome so i can't initialise sound at startup
[09:08] <AWOSDev7360> er
[09:08] <AWOSDev7360> s/right/write/
[09:09] <agliv5> Anybody know of a Gspot alternative? Trying to find out information on a video file...
[09:09] <insta> slavekk: I can't read polish :(
[09:09] <squeaks> slavekk, for the firefox problem, my guess: search for symbolic links related to  /tmp/.esd -> /tmp/.esd-1000
[09:09] <cafuego_> agliv5: ffmpeg -i ,file> /dev/null
[09:09] <Alarm> well i found them in the adept_notifier actually, so i thought i could upgrade them as easy as the other packages
[09:09] <rredd4> AlpineGuy  ahhhh   lol!
[09:09] <klimraamkosie> I'm supposed to edit /etc/fstab to get my system going. So I use the alternate disc's recovery mode and then try to edit with gedit like this "sudo gedit /etc/fstab", this doesn't work. Although the ubuntu help pages online tell me I should do it. And I try todo sudo vi /etc/fstab. Vi doesn't want to do anything, or it's a really old version for people who know how to work with it, I don't.
[09:09] <cafuego_> agliv5: that should give you codec, size, framerate and bitrate etc.
[09:09] <mneptok> AWOSDev7360: if those are made, it is unlikely anyane cares enough too get drivers done.
[09:10] <insta> klimraamkosie: sudoedit instead of "sudo vi" ?
[09:10] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok what I mean is...not CardBus 32-bit but PCMCIA.  because I have a 1996 laptop.
[09:10] <agliv5> cafuego, hang on and I'll try ;)
[09:10] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok okay :-(
[09:10] <AlpineGuy> rred: arright, what's so funny now?
[09:10] <slavekk> so?
[09:10] <unop> klimraamkosie,  gedit needs a X session to work and in recovery mode there's no X -- try nano -- sudo nano /etc/fstab
[09:10] <AWOSDev7360> mneptok yeah I know I should just "get rid of it" but I like it so I keep it.
[09:10] <nalioth> is there a USB wifi card that has native linux support out there?
[09:10] <AWOSDev7360> anyways.
[09:10] <AWOSDev7360> goodbye!
[09:10] <|ac3|> is it possible to disable the xplike startup screen in edgy? I like the old one from dapper and other linux distros more
[09:11] <klimraamkosie> ok thanks insta and unop, I'll try those two :)
[09:11] <|ac3|> i wanna see all services started at boot with an OK:)
[09:11] <rredd4> AlpineGuy you said your too lazy to google it...  poor baby... lol  just kidding..
[09:11] <insta> klimraamkosie: sudoedit just looks at your default $EDITOR variable and uses that
[09:11] <insta> I believe ubuntu defaults to nano anyway
[09:11] <insta> they're the same thing in that case
[09:11] <cafuego_> nalioth: some madwifis apparently
[09:12] <insta> slavekk: run "gstreamer-properties", and go through the sound options, testing the various ones in the dropdown for "audio output" until you hear a test tone
[09:12] <klimraamkosie> :)
[09:12] <klimraamkosie> thanks
[09:12] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: you prolly won't get 802.11G then, but B only.
[09:12] <cafuego_> AWOSDev7360: In which case, get an orinoco.
[09:12] <nalioth> cafuego_: i've purchased several "supposedly native" usb wifi cards from my local store and none have worked
[09:12] <AWOSDev7360> cafuego_ noted. thank you.
[09:12] <agliv5> cafuego, it says an I/O error occured, file truncated or corrupt... but I can play the file just fine??? I'm just trying to determine the bitrate....
[09:12] <AWOSDev7360> bye!
[09:13] <AlpineGuy> sigh.  and after doing a thorough google search nobody has bothered to write alternative 3rd party code for Linksys' Wireline routers... when will the day come :(
[09:13] <cafuego_> nalioth: My father in law had a SiS based usb wifi thing, which worked for a few minutes before causing a kernel panic.
[09:13] <slavekk> insta: true. but as i'm freshmen i'm not able to find it...
[09:13] <cafuego_> AlpineGuy: Um, openwrt.org
[09:13] <insta> able to find what?  gstreamer-properties?
[09:14] <AlpineGuy> Suddenly the Zyxel Zywall 2 or 3 is looking like a nice replacement.
[09:14] <insta> it got dropped from the menu somewhere around edgy.  alt+f2 or the terminal will get you where you need to be
[09:15] <AlpineGuy> hmm.. this OpenWRT seems to require extensive knowledge of TCP/IP
[09:17] <unop> AlpineGuy,  errm, you'd expect that if you were working with routers, no? :)
[09:17] <AlpineGuy> Yep, with high end stuff, obviously
[09:18] <AlpineGuy> if you're attempting to make me look stupid AS IF to imply that I didn't know that, then you've failed miserably.
[09:19] <unop> AlpineGuy,  no, i'm sorry you see it that way, i was just stating the obvious :)
[09:19] <AlpineGuy> I was not aware of your tone.  nevermind, its cool
[09:21] <cafuego_> AlpineGuy: Not really, openwrt has a simple web based interface, which does all you need.
[09:21] <cafuego_> AlpineGuy: You can ssh in and playa round if you want to, but it's not required.
[09:21] <AlpineGuy> ahh, cool.  muchos gracias for su ayudar
[09:22] <cafuego_> da nada - hoewel ik niet echt spaans ben of spreek
[09:22] <AlpineGuy> hehe.  multilingual :)
[09:22] <agliv5> cafuego, did you miss my last message that it didn't work?  do you know of an alternitave?
[09:22] <cafuego_> Bien sur.
[09:23] <cafuego_> agliv5: Hmmm. What is the file extension?
[09:23] <agliv5> cafuego, avidemux says coded with DX50
[09:23] <AlpineGuy> unop: are you just a casual channel helper, or do you work for ubuntu?
[09:24] <cafuego_> agliv5: Hmm, dunno then. I'd have thought ffmpeg wouldn't have issues with that.
[09:24] <klimraamkosie> nano doesn't want to work on BTerm.
[09:25] <klimraamkosie> And VI is crazy.
[09:25] <AlpineGuy> Bterm??? as in the old BinkleyTerm?
[09:25] <agliv5> Unfortunately, avidemux doen't show the bitrate... isn't there an option for mplayer to analyse a file?
[09:25] <unop> AlpineGuy,  the former .. :)  why do you ask?
[09:25] <klimraamkosie> That's the shell I get when I do recovery from the alternate CD
[09:25] <cafuego_> agliv5: just play it from the cmdline
[09:25] <AlpineGuy> Just curious is all
[09:26] <agliv5> cafuego, will that output bitrate?
[09:27] <unop> i see .. when it comes to ubuntu (or open source), i'd like to think we all work for it , contributing in some way or the other :)
[09:28] <cafuego_> agliv5: it should, yes
[09:28] <AlpineGuy> Good way to see it, bloke..
[09:28] <k31th> How would i go about uninstalling a application I installed with java web start?
[09:29] <Fanskapet> hmm anyone here having problem with mplayer after compile?
[09:29] <Fanskapet> my mplayer outputs terrible screaming sound.
[09:30] <Fanskapet> I can solve it by activating FFmpeg/libavcodec audio decoders
[09:30] <Fanskapet> but then my ordinary .mpg movies won't play correctly :/
[09:31] <linux1> hiya ppl any know how long the feisty repos r going to be down for
[09:31] <unop> linux1,  tried another mirror?
[09:31] <agliv5> cafuego, it worked :) Thx!
[09:32] <linux1> no dont know how
[09:33] <Fanskapet> [mp2 @ 0x8816958] Header missing skipping one byte. that's why i get :/

[09:38] <SoulChild> WHere is the alsa config file ???
[09:38] <Daverocks> Coudy: ok, ram is ok :P . chroot failure is odd.
[09:38] <iseng> apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
[09:39] <JohnnyV> is there any skinning that can be done to the menus and panels?
[09:39] <Lynoure> iseng: If you want to keep it as it is, why not just use the old one in the new pc and use the new disk as extra space?
[09:39] <bayziders> For some reason I can't get Azureus working, when I try to download a torrent it jsut doesn't download. What's wrong?
[09:39] <Madpilot> JohnnyV, you can change themes - System->Preferences-> Theme
[09:40] <Daverocks> SoulChild: probably /etc/asound.conf
[09:40] <Coudy> Daverocks: debootstrap warning failure to run chroot /target dpkg ...
[09:40] <SoulChild> Daverocks: no nothing
[09:41] <Daverocks> SoulChild: anything starting with /etc/asound ? like /etc/asound*
[09:41] <mneptok> bayziders: have you forwarded ports for Azureus's use?
[09:41] <unop> SoulChild,  ~/.asound.conf or ~/.asoundconf too
[09:41] <musya> does anybody know of ways of getting linux certificats?
[09:41] <mneptok> musya: certification?
[09:41] <unop> musya, what type of certificates?
[09:41] <Daverocks> unop: i think it's ~/.asoundrc
[09:41] <mneptok> musya: or like SSL certs?
[09:41] <SoulChild> unop thanks thats it
[09:42] <Madpilot> musya, LPI certs?
[09:42] <Daverocks> SoulChild: http://alsa.opensrc.org/.asoundrc
[09:42] <siconsole> hi.. are there any ways to remove program manually?
[09:42] <guisolo> i'm fully ubuntu now
[09:42] <guisolo> fully
[09:42] <unop> siconsole, if you know the package's name - sudo aptitude remove packagename
[09:42] <guisolo> i can even do a chmod or whatever
[09:42] <Lynoure> guisolo: congratulations!
[09:43] <Daverocks> proqesi`: i think you can use ndiswrapper
[09:43] <siconsole> i tried dpkg -remove but it hang up my comp
[09:43] <iseng> Lynoure: Because my old PC still need disk
[09:43] <guisolo> Lynoure thank you. I am very happy
[09:44] <Coudy> Daverocks: any idea what next ?
[09:44] <musya> yea i suppose just linux certificates i dont know much abou them
[09:44] <Daverocks> Coudy: not right now, but i need to go now
[09:45] <guisolo> i grepped a whole bunch of files, then decided to replace some stuff with sed, and finished off with a bit of awk programming
[09:45] <guisolo> fully
[09:45] <guisolo> i then changed my default shell to zsh
[09:45] <smoenux> good morning!
[09:45] <Coudy> Daverocks: ok,

[09:54] <crazy_penguin> Hello to everyone!
[09:55] <gary> Your crazy crazy_penguin
[09:57] <_james> how can i install soundcard?
[09:58] <Myrtti> shutdown the computer, take of the covers of your computer, take the card, insert it into an expansion slot, screw it tight, close the covers
[09:58] <livingdaylight> what command is there for seeing the whole of a hard drive apart from df -h ?
[09:58] <Fracture> is there any way to change the command line completion to work how it did in dapper.. ie. when I use jar (java archiver) like this "jar xf /media/file<tab>" when /media/filename.zip exists, it doesn't complete  it.. it only seems to work with certain file extensions ?
[09:59] <livingdaylight> df -h only shows me the current os i am in. I want to see the whole hard disc
[10:00] <unop> Fracture,  are you sure that another file sharing a common "/media/file" doesnt exist? something named "/media/file_count" for e.g ?
[10:01] <Fracture> unop: yes..
[10:01] <Fracture> unop: this happens in other cases too
[10:01] <unop> livingdaylight,  sudo fdisk -l
[10:01] <unop> Fracture,  does it work in most other cases?
[10:01] <livingdaylight> unop, thx
[10:02] <e> hello ubuntu
[10:02] <e> i love you
[10:02] <Fracture> unop: yes, it works where the extension is a more common extension, supported by the program
[10:02] <Fracture> i.e. it works for JAR files in this case
[10:03] <livingdaylight> can someone remove this albeit harmless troll, e who is annoying me
[10:03] <stinger_au> whats the command to pick video card type in ubuntu ?
[10:03] <stinger_au> i forgot what it is
[10:04] <unop> Fracture,  hmm, is your shell (echo $SHELL) bash or dash?
[10:04] <unop> stinger_au,  lspci
[10:04] <stinger_au> narr thats not it i know about that
[10:04] <Fracture> unop: /bin/bash
[10:04] <unop> livingdaylight,  /ignore him
[10:04] <Fracture> unop: I had problems with dash for some scripts.. so i changed the default to bash
[10:05] <unop> stinger_au,  hmm, maybe one of glxinfo, hwinfo, lshw
[10:05] <unop> Fracture,  how very odd?  does it autocomplete on the same file if you use somethig other than jar .. say ls for e.g?
[10:06] <klimraamkosie> vi is a pain in the ass! haha, got everything to work now.
[10:06] <Fracture> unop: yeah
[10:06] <Fracture> unop: touch a.zip; jar a<tab> does nothing
[10:07] <Fracture> unop: touch a.zip; ls a<tab> completes it
[10:08] <Fafhrd_> hi all
[10:08] <livingdaylight> unop, i have thw other partitions on my hard drive which i'd like to erase and add to this os, can i do that; i need the space
[10:09] <Fafhrd_> just noticed that the 2.6.17-11-generic updates fail with unresolvable dependencies... anyone seen that too?
[10:09] <unop> Fracture, well, all i can think is it might be one of the environmental variables (set) or shell options (shopt) in your shell .. i cant be sure what it is
[10:09] <mackinac> Fafhrd_, yes lots of ppl
[10:09] <Fafhrd_> k
[10:09] <loca|host> anyone can help me ? my CPU Fan wont stop with Ubuntu, it does with Windows ;(
[10:10] <Fafhrd_> so i'm not alone :-)
[10:10] <Fafhrd_> mackinac, there a fix already? couldnt find anything on the net so far...
[10:11] <mackinac> Fafhrd_, sorry, no idea
[10:11] <unop> livingdaylight,  sure you can do that -- if you still have the live CD you should be able to boot into it and resize/consolidate partitions
[10:11] <Fafhrd_> k, so i guess we have to have to wait
[10:11] <Yancho> guys anyone know how i can install "deb and deb-src" on ubuntu pls ?
[10:11] <unop> livingdaylight,  or if you prefer to use these partitions without the resizing, you will need to format these partition and add entries for them in /etc/fstab
[10:11] <Fafhrd_> thanx mackinac, c'yall round
[10:12] <unop> Yancho,  what do you mean exactly?
[10:12] <Yancho> unop want to do this : http://cartoweb.org/cwiki/DebianPackages
[10:13] <linux1> unop thanks all sorted now
[10:13] <unop> Yancho,  the instructions are there on the page .. arent you reading it? :)
[10:13] <Yancho> unikon when i did "deb" it told me command not found
[10:14] <Yancho> -bash: deb: command not found
[10:14] <Yancho> so now i need to install something to be able to use "deb" .. btw unop not unikon :)
[10:14] <cherva> i have a little problem with iptables and bittornado. On http://ubuntuguide.org/ says how to install bittornado ( sudo aptitude install bittornado bittornado-gui  ) and then how to add it to iptables ( sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 6881:6999 -j ACCEPT ) but when i start bittornado there is yellow light (firewalled) pls help
[10:15] <unop> Yancho,  you arent reading it properly, slow down and make sure you undertand it well -- it says "To add in your /etc/apt/sources.list:" ... :)
[10:15] <Yancho> so i can add to that list manually unop ?
[10:16] <Fracture> unop: thanks, i'll dig around a bit more
[10:16] <unop> Yancho,  gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:16] <Yancho> thanks :)
[10:16] <livingdaylight> unop, how about using cfdisk?
[10:17] <Lice> mobprobe tulip to run the module tulip right?
[10:17] <unop> livingdaylight,  i'm not sure what cfdisk does, what does it do?
[10:18] <livingdaylight> unop, i thought it manages partitions
[10:18] <unop> Lice,  if a module by that name exists, yes -- but you need to sudo that command
[10:18] <unop> livingdaylight,  hmm, well, i should imagine it does, after bearing a resemblance to fdisk
[10:18] <cherva> how can i add port 6881 to iptables ? (tcp)
[10:19] <livingdaylight> unop, indeed if i said fdisk would you say i could do it that way?
[10:19] <unop> livingdaylight,  but what i was getting at is -- if you have the liveCD you can use the graphical utility - gparted to manage partitions
[10:20] <unop> livingdaylight, can you !pastebin the output of the following commands for me .. i'll have a better picture of your disks layout and then i can suggest what to do
[10:21] <livingdaylight> unop, cfdisk is pretty graphical and avoids me having to look for my live cd
[10:21] <unop> livingdaylight,  cat /etc/fstab; sudo fdisk-l;
[10:22] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm, well, ok, if you think it'll work -- but i think its safer to use a liveCD to do tasks such as these -- you arent using your disk then
[10:22] <mhiku> how to wget recursive dir as root using sftp in a remote site?
[10:22] <livingdaylight> unop, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4830/ the cat bit
[10:23] <livingdaylight> unop, i see. So what is the point of cfdisk/gparted etc if it is not safe to do from ones disc? aguess, they're to be used from a live cd
[10:23] <unop> mhiku,  is this a sftp site?
[10:23] <livingdaylight> unop, i coult even look for or create a gparted live cd
[10:24] <mhiku> do you know?
[10:24] <unop> livingdaylight,  well, it probably possible to use gparted while still using the disk -- but then you risk corruption or the process might fail altogether as you might be using a portion of the disk that gparted needs to use too
[10:25] <livingdaylight> unop, fdisk output http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4831/
[10:25] <livingdaylight> unop, right so better to use a live cd
[10:26] <alejandro> does any one know when a ubuntu windows instaler for vista will be available
[10:26] <Yancho> unop u have a clue about these errors pls? : http://www.pastebin.ca/346350
[10:26] <acts_as_idiot> Hello all. I'm a newbie trying to get Xen working on Edgy. I installed 3.0.4 from source and can boot into dom0. Could anyone answer a couple of questions?
[10:26] <Yzer> why is apache2 so confusing on ubuntu?
[10:27] <Yzer> i'm trying to get apache2 working with mod_php and mod_perl
[10:27] <Yzer> and the "out of the box" solution isn't working
[10:27] <Yzer> it doesn't recognize php and perl scripts, and doesn't execute them
[10:27] <felixhummel> OT: What's the opposite of "discarded"?
[10:28] <Yzer> when i try to check if they are loaded by doing <IfModule mod_php5.c> Redirect...</IfModule> it works
[10:28] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, so now which partitions do you want to use here?
[10:28] <Yzer> but when i try the php/perl script, it doesn't
[10:28] <zoexii> hello, I am having aweful problems with the network manager.  It seems to recognize all all available wireless networks, as well as a wired connection, but as soon as I switch networks, all connections are broken, even if I switch back to a wired connection.  any ideas?
[10:29] <livingdaylight> unop, ok, ubuntu is on sda1 and sda2 (root and /home respectively) sda3 is swap. I've run out of space and need the extra on sda5
[10:30] <livingdaylight> unop, i extended and created another partition coz i thought i would put xp there for a dual boot. But that idea is dead, so i'd like to get the extra space back
[10:30] <acts_as_idiot> Any Xen experts?
[10:30] <unop> Yancho,  I have a feeling that that repository you just added has packages that require odd version numbers (those for debian)
[10:30] <zoexii> can anyone help me troubleshoot network manager?
[10:30] <Yancho> so i better remove it right ? and use the synatic package maanger to download the libraries needed?
[10:31] <unop> Yancho,  well, have you installed any software yet from that repository?
[10:31] <Yancho> no not yet unikon
[10:31] <Yancho> unop
[10:32] <Yzer> i think i'll just waver the out of the box apache solution of ubuntu
[10:32] <Yzer> too much of a mess trying to make things simpler
[10:34] <unop> Yancho,  ok cool,  I think all you need to do is install the map-server packages from this repo and everything else from ubuntu's repo -- comment out this line in sources.list, run apt-get update , install the ubuntu packages like apache, php, postgres etc .. and then add the line back and then install the mapserver packages
[10:34] <Yancho> i already have apache php postgres etc
[10:35] <Yancho> i gott run unop thanks for the help till now but have to run out :(
[10:37] <felixhummel> In VIM, how do I yank to the x clipboard (so I can paste in firefox or wherever)?
[10:38] <unop> livingdaylight,  sorry, what i would do is just format /dev/sda5 and mount it in /etc/fstab .. quite simple :)
[10:38] <nzx> hey, how do i make network manager not use the keyrings? or how do i stop it from prompting me for a password everytime ?
[10:38] <cyphase> R.I.P headphones.. *sad smile*
[10:39] <unop> livingdaylight, which existing partition is running out of space for you?
[10:39] <Alarm> hello . i want to add a basic authentication on my apache server. but somehow it doesnt really work. although i am asked for a user/pass and enter the correct ones, it keeps asking me again and again. i created a password file with htpasswd -c  , under /usr/local/etc/httpd . my document directory is /var/www (doesnt have any index html in it. just files. my apache2.conf file looks like that: http://www.phpriot.com/4939 .read many times the apache
[10:39] <Alarm> tutorial but somehow i didnt manage to fix that  (i am not using .htaccess file, i have put the the basic authentication lines in a <directory> in the config file
[10:40] <livingdaylight> unop, both / and /home
[10:41] <livingdaylight> unop, says here / is 100% and /home 80-90% or so
[10:43] <shinobi2> how much hard disk space is a ubuntu 6.10 default desktop installation?
[10:43] <frogzoo> shinobi2: probly 3 gig maybe?
[10:44] <livingdaylight> unop, i'd have to check disk usage analyser again, but / is 100% !!! which is scary. I dont' know how. And yes, /home/me is nearly full aswell. I've been busy downloading music ^^
[10:44] <shinobi2> ok, i'll give 5gb
[10:44] <unop> livingdaylight,  ha ha :)
[10:45] <livingdaylight> unop, yea, those mb's add up quick :o .... hehe
[10:46] <frogzoo> shinobi2: + separate partition for /home - you'll be glad of it
[10:46] <unop> livingdaylight,  well, what you could do is format and bring in the last partition -- move a few folders like /var and /home/$USER/music over into that partition and then leaving symlinks behind pointing to the new locations
[10:46] <shinobi2> frogzoo: it's for virtual machine for playing. i have 12 gb for ubuntu in dual boot
[10:47] <shinobi2> forgot how much space it was for a minimium install
[10:47] <frogzoo> shinobi2: well 5gig should be plenty for a VM
[10:48] <shinobi2> yeah, i going to put ubuntu 7.0 on vmware when i comes out
[10:48] <shinobi2> i like 6.06, works nice with wifi
[10:48] <shinobi2> frogzoo: 6.10 does not work with wifi, i gaveup
[10:48] <unop> livingdaylight,  you got what i said there/
[10:48] <unop> ?
[10:49] <unop> stunned?
[10:49] <shinobi2> anyone running ubuntu 7 alpha?
[10:49] <shinobi2> i hope the boot up gui screen is nicer
[10:49] <Fuzzy76> Anyone else had their kernels held back recently? there are some dependencies against 2.6.17-11 but it's not to be found
[10:49] <livingdaylight> unop, i heard you, but i'm not familiar and hence not so comfortable with the idea. I hoped / and /home could just absorb the extra space
[10:49] <unop> shinobi2,  ha ha, the part that matters the least :)
[10:50] <shinobi2> =) i know
[10:50] <frogzoo> shinobi2: -> #ubuntu+1 for feisty talk
[10:50] <shinobi2> 6.10 splash screen is crappier that 6.06
[10:50] <livingdaylight> shinobi2, haha the boot up gui is bothering you?
[10:50] <shinobi2> yes =)
[10:51] <frogzoo> /12/12
[10:51] <Balachmar> Hi could someone help me with wpa_supplicant?
[10:51] <shinobi2> ah... there's actually a #ubuntu+1
[10:51] <livingdaylight> there seems to be an endless amounts of #ubuntu channels
[10:52] <visit0r> how come kernel upgrade for edgy today is kept back
[10:52] <shinobi2> i think the O in ubuntu should rotate , like a round table
[10:52] <shinobi2> that will be cool
[10:52] <unop> livingdaylight,  well, it's going to be quite tricky -- you could merge /dev/sda2,3,4 and 5 so that becomes /dev/sda2 (/home) and then resize /dev/hda1(/) so you balance out the space at the beginning .. and then create /dev/sda3 (swap) at the end .. but this is rife with potential disaster but entirely possible
[10:52] <visit0r> linux-image-386: Depends: linux-image-2.6.17-11-386 but it is not installable
[10:52] <unop> s/hda1/sda1/
[10:53] <visit0r> is this a known issue?
[10:53] <kenthomson> Can someone please help me, my computer behaves extremely unresponsively whenever i am browsing the net with firefox
[10:53] <livingdaylight> unop, yea, a minefield of disastrous possibilities
[10:54] <livingdaylight> unop, that's why i've always avoided resizing or playing with partitions once os is installed
[10:54] <unop> livingdaylight,  i prefer the solution #1 .. less possibility of losing data
[10:54] <kenthomson> in the linux world (open-source) is there another web-browser which supports flash-ajax-java that i can use (NOT OPERA)? becuase firefox is really taking up a lot of resources and making my system unresponsive as hell,
[10:54] <lesshaste> whenever I open thunderbird is asks if I want to send an unsent message. However I can't see an unsent message folder. How would I find it?
[10:54] <unop> livingdaylight,  yep, i've never resized a partition (yet)
[10:54] <livingdaylight> unop, sounds beyond me though
[10:54] <kenthomson> or is there something i can do to firefox (config) to allow it to take less CPU cycles and RAM?????
[10:54] <livingdaylight> unop, maybe i should just wait for Feisty and then reinstall fresh
[10:54] <kenthomson> Is anyone even listening? :)
[10:54] <mattycoze> hay does anyone know how to fix OpenGl errors?
[10:55] <unop> livingdaylight,  it's quite simple actually .. but yea, your mileage will vary
[10:55] <kenthomson> Here's a summary if someone is willing to help: Can someone please help me, my computer behaves extremely unresponsively whenever i am browsing the net with firefox:  in the linux world (open-source) is there another web-browser which supports flash-ajax-java that i can use (NOT OPERA)? becuase firefox is really taking up a lot of resources and making my system unresponsive as hell, : or is there something i can do to firefox (config) to allow it to

[10:56] <livingdaylight> lol@kenthomson
[10:56] <kenthomson> :)
[10:56] <unop> livingdaylight, well for the timebeing, you could try cleaning up space in / .. remove uneeded packages/locales .. you could format /dev/sda5 and mount it just for the purposes of your musi freeing up space for /home
[10:56] <kenthomson> no one looks like the-helping kind over here :)
[10:56] <tracy> kenthomson,
[10:56] <tracy> look up..
[10:56] <unop> s/musi/music/
[10:56] <kenthomson> look up to where
[10:56] <tracy> firfox tweaks
[10:56] <livingdaylight> unop, that sounds like an idea
[10:56] <tracy> let me see if i have a link
[10:56] <kenthomson> tracy, google search for firefox tweaks?
[10:57] <tracy> i dont have the link but goodle firefox tweaks
[10:57] <kenthomson> IS every open source app purposefully coded to make users weep or is it just me having a bad-day? no wait a bad-ubuntu OS? though i can't think of a way that can happen
[10:57] <kenthomson> tracy, though i was hoping for some more concise-researched advice then GOOGLE-IT!
[10:57] <kenthomson> :)
[10:57] <tracy> i remember a website that said something how too make things on FF different, i changed a few things on mine, but there is something in about:config that you can fix CPU usage stuff
[10:58] <tracy> or wikipedia firefox and look at what the options on about:config are
[10:58] <kenthomson> Anyways has anyone else faced the same problem with FF, and want to offer some advice to me, that app takes a helluva' lot of resources?
[10:58] <tracy> i think thats right
[10:58] <kenthomson> tracy, write
[10:58] <mattycoze> okay heres my problem; keep getting OpenGl errors whenever i run Wine or Google Earth from the terminal, i think it's the reason why both programs don't run very well, especially google earth because it crashes from time to time, anyone able to help?
[10:58] <livingdaylight> unop, how do i clreanup / ? I already removed kde desktop and lots of things i dont need or use
[10:58] <kenthomson> tracy, right or write? anyways whats right? the wikipedia thingy?
[10:59] <kenthomson> mattycoze, never got any problem with google-earth on linux works like a charm, though its evil and closed source :)
[10:59] <unop> livingdaylight,  gimme 2 minutes ;)
[10:59] <mattycoze> ahh, thanks but thats not the answer i'm looking for kenthomson
[10:59] <livingdaylight> unop, no worries
[11:00] <MarcoPau> even thou I'm using alsa, the audio device comes as occupied when playing two files at the same time. what should I check?
[11:00] <tracy> kenthomson, http://www.tweakguides.com/Firefox_1.html
[11:00] <livingdaylight> kenthomson, see. there's lots of helpful people at ubuntu. Ubuntu rulez! ok?
[11:01] <mattycoze> Ubuntu's got good forums
[11:02] <kenthomson> ok let me head there then!
[11:02] <kenthomson> tracy, i got that let me see it too
[11:02] <kenthomson> livingdaylight, mindlessly praising a distro that's simply borrowed stuff from the OS community is not good for anyone :)
[11:03] <mattycoze> has anyone else ever had OpenGL errors on Ubuntu before?
[11:03] <mattycoze> and found a good forum, or how to fix?
[11:03] <livingdaylight> kenthomson, who says i'm mindlessly praising? And who says im just prasing the os. I was referring to the awesome community that makes Ubuntu what it is
[11:03] <tracy> kenthomson, this is the website i was trying to tell you: http://lifehacker.com/software/firefox-2/geek-to-live-top-firefox-2-config-tweaks-209941.php
[11:03] <tracy> knew i had it saved
[11:04] <livingdaylight> kenthomson, i bet you don't use Ubuntu
[11:04] <livingdaylight> kenthomson, be honest, what do you use?
[11:04] <fialar> anyone know when linux-restricted-modules will be available for the new edgy kernel? (2.6.17-50)
[11:04] <tracy> kenthomson, just hit ctrl f and search CPU and you may find what you need
[11:04] <GreyGhost> kenthomson ,i think i've seen u somewhere..
[11:05] <mattycoze> haha kenthompson = troll
[11:05] <livingdaylight> kenthomson, be honest because i can tell if you're lying... You don't even use UBuntu do you?
[11:05] <knoppix> i have s simple problem on my ubuntu server - i need to chown all files and subdirs including hidden files (e.g. .file). I have tries chown -R but this does not include hidden files. can anyone help please?
[11:05] <kenthomson> tracy, ya i read that article long back lets go back to it, thanks!
[11:05] <fialar> knoppix: cd ..; chown -R <the directory>
[11:05] <livingdaylight> kenthomson, but you know the support is great here, so you come with your Firefox questions and dare to diss me
[11:05] <livingdaylight> kenthomson, i'm talking to you
[11:06] <kenthomson> ok i hear you
[11:06] <kenthomson> and i use ubuntu
[11:06] <GreyGhost> kenthomson , were u by any chacnce trying to compile ktoon sometime ago ?
[11:06] <kenthomson> though would let you get over with ranting first
[11:06] <knoppix> tried that but chown -R does not chown any hidden files prefixed with a dot. like the ones you can see with ls -a
[11:06] <veb11> When I try edit my time it says "You are not allowed to edit system conf"
[11:06] <veb11> Any ideas?
[11:07] <kenthomson> GreyGhost, my dear fellow yes! looks like thats steadfastly fixed in your brain, sharp memory! <claps> though i was never successful in doing it, and abandoned all ambitions of compiling anything in the future
[11:07] <mattycoze> need help, openGL errors on Ubuntu
[11:07] <kenthomson> mattycoze, i don't think that was courteus
[11:07] <GreyGhost> kenthomson ,hehe ...i remember stuff osmetimes ;) i'll tell u if i ever manage to compile it myself though..
[11:07] <mattycoze> kenthomson only poking fun
[11:08] <unop> livingdaylight,  sorry, where were we? cleaning up right?
[11:08] <kenthomson> GreyGhost, that would be an angelic deed, indeed! :)
[11:08] <GreyGhost> livingdaylight ,isnt he free (as in free to have free beer ) to use any OS he likes?
[11:08] <livingdaylight> unop, yes
[11:08] <livingdaylight> yes
[11:08] <cow_2001> is there a way to upgrade to edgy through the command line and not by editing /etc/apt/sources...?
[11:08] <livingdaylight> GreyGhost, sure he is, but i wasn't feeling his love for ubuntu and calling my appreciateion of ubuntu mindless
[11:09] <livingdaylight> unop, cleaning up /
[11:09] <MarcoPau> is there any psaux for ubuntu?
[11:09] <unop> livingdaylight,  firstly .. install the localepurge package -- it can free up some space by deleting files for other languages/locales you dont use
[11:09] <GreyGhost> livingdaylight , oh well... missed that part ...
[11:10] <kenthomson> MarcoPau, ps -aux works for all linux distros
[11:10] <livingdaylight> unop, cool, never heard about that package. sudo apt-get install localpurge ?
[11:10] <unop> yep :)
[11:11] <livingdaylight> unop, what is the full name exactluy? localpurge is not recognized as package. I could check synaptic ...wait
[11:11] <MarcoPau> kelsin: thanks, I was used to psaux in debian...
[11:11] <MarcoPau> whoops
[11:11] <MarcoPau> kenthomson: thanks, I was used to psaux in debian...
[11:12] <unop> livingdaylight,  localepurge .. you miss an 'e' :)
[11:13] <unop> MarcoPau,  you can create your own psaux -- alias psaux='ps aux'  :)
[11:13] <livingdaylight> unop, no i didn't actually when i used cli or synaptic and neither give me a return
[11:13] <livingdaylight> ahha
[11:13] <livingdaylight> wait
[11:14] <livingdaylight> unop, how do i configure it now?
[11:14] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm, it should ask you as you are installing it .. if not -- sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow localepurge
[11:15] <MarcoPau> unop: sure
[11:15] <cow_2001> okay, thanks
[11:15] <unop> livingdaylight,  after that -- run it via  - sudo localepurge
[11:15] <livingdaylight> unop, a screen comes up and its asking me to select locale files but there are hundreds, do i keep selecting each one?
[11:15] <unop> livingdaylight,  ohh no, you select the locales you want to keep there -- not the ones you want deleting :)
[11:16] <livingdaylight> unop, do i want to remove all locales?
[11:16] <unop> livingdaylight,  you in the state?
[11:16] <unop> states*
[11:16] <livingdaylight> no
[11:16] <livingdaylight> so which ones do i wanna keep?
[11:16] <unop> livingdaylight,  well, no .. you want to keep the files for your particular locale
[11:16] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, where do you live then?
[11:17] <livingdaylight> unop, london
[11:17] <fialar> the big smoke :)
[11:17] <livingdaylight> unop, but mark shuttleworth is too busy to help me ^^
[11:18] <unop> livingdaylight,  hah, london eh, me too :) .. anyway, the locales you want are en_GB en_GB.utf en_GB.ISO8859.1 etc
[11:18] <unop> livingdaylight,  keep all the en_GB ones to be safe
[11:19] <livingdaylight> unop, ok, so i tick en_GB only
[11:19] <unop> all the en_GB ones only .. mind the difference :)
[11:19] <fialar> can someone tell me what the latest version of the kernel is for edgy?
[11:19] <fialar> I'm seeing two.. but one of them is not yet complete
[11:19] <LycoLoco> anyone here to help at this hour?
[11:20] <frogzoo> fialar:  2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP
[11:20] <livingdaylight> unop, that's done it seems
[11:20] <unop> fialar, you could get 2.6.19 i think
[11:20] <fialar> frogzoo: I saw a 2.6.17-50 out.. but no restricted modules package for it yet :(
[11:20] <fialar> unop: is there a 2.6.19 for edgy?
[11:20] <frogzoo> fialar: nopers - I have the latest from the repos
[11:21] <LycoLoco> I'm having issues with booting back into ubuntu after trying to set up my mouse: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2128110&postcount=399
[11:21] <martin_> Hello i running linux ubuntu and i was type rm -rf * in terminal i mistake :( and now when i open terminal look what i have: To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
[11:21] <martin_> what that means ?

[11:21] <livingdaylight> unop, cool, wherea bouts?
[11:22] <unop> livingdaylight,  sudo localepurge
[11:22] <martin_> now i can't open Networking
[11:22] <fialar> LycoLoco: um.. why were you trying to set up a printer in fstab?
[11:22] <unop> livingdaylight,  i'm up visiting girlfriend/parents now in sheffield -- but i stay in wembley
[11:22] <LycoLoco> fialar: I dunno man, it was something that was suggested, so I tried it - obviously it failed :-p
[11:22] <mattl> "When Freespire 2.0 arrives in April, it will use Ubuntu as its base, moving off of the current Debian. Ubuntu users will get access to proprietary software (DVD players, media codecs) via Linspire's newly opened Click 'N Run." - ugh!!!
[11:23] <martin_> people can somebody help me please ?
[11:23] <fialar> LycoLoco: /etc/fstab is only for mounting of disks.. printers is /etc/printcap
[11:23] <LycoLoco> fialar: I know, I know, however that's not an issue anymore - the current issue is with my mouse
[11:23] <mattl> martin_: i missed you saying what your problem was. what's up?
[11:23] <LycoLoco> and not booting
[11:23] <livingdaylight> unop, 38644k freed up, not bad. I see, i'm in Camden

[11:23] <livingdaylight> unop, looking for a local nix guru
[11:23] <martin_> mattl: no is that problem i mistake :)
[11:24] <LycoLoco> fialar: I can't even get to a terminal
[11:24] <LycoLoco> or a CLI of any kind

[11:26] <Amon-san> martin_: were you root?
[11:26] <livingdaylight> ^^
[11:26] <martin_> To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
[11:26] <martin_> See "man sudo_root" for details.
[11:26] <martin_> i dont know what is that
[11:26] <martin_> :S
[11:26] <mackinac> !sudo
[11:26] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:27] <fialar> I want to convince my techy boss that sudo is better than su.. but he just won't have it.
[11:27] <Amon-san> then you did not delete anything yet
[11:27] <chibiace> fialar, you can sudo -i
[11:27] <unop> livingdaylight, well, that was back in the day when i liked drinking - things have changed now :)
[11:27] <Amon-san> but the cosole tells you to delete stuff you need to use "sudo <command>"
[11:27] <unop> livingdaylight,  did you say you were looking for a *nix guru?
[11:28] <livingdaylight> unop, yea.. mine has moved back to madrid
[11:28] <livingdaylight> unop, yea, crawling gets less fun after a while
[11:28] <Nitro> Hi. :) I'm trying to compile xchat 2.8, and it first said I didn't have a decent C compiler, so I got gcc( good enough?). Now it says "error: C compiler cannot create executables". Why, is there a way to fix this?
[11:28] <unop> fialar, well, is sudo really better than su ?? :)
[11:29] <fialar> unop: that's the big debate
[11:29] <bimberi> Nitro: install build-essential
[11:29] <fialar> I like sudo better than su
[11:29] <fialar> and he can't stand sudo and wants just su
[11:29] <unop> livingdaylight,  yea, also people "grow up" or atleast i did .. coudlnt stand not being able to stand up half the time :)
[11:30] <DoberMann> hi, i'd like to know if in the Xen package available in Edgy xen is made with or without VT options
[11:30] <LycoLoco> alrighty, still no dice
[11:30] <LycoLoco> couldn't even get to a terminal or anything
[11:30] <LycoLoco> it just hard locks
[11:30] <mattl> LycoLoco: i made that six mins ;)
[11:30] <mackinac> !enter
[11:30] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:30] <Nitro> bimberi: erm, sorry to ask again, but I'm a bit new to linux, which folder? the same? (xchat-2.8?)
[11:30] <tj239> What is the way to stop the blank screens from coming up when the computer goes into screensaver mode?
[11:31] <LycoLoco> mattl: I decided to take a picture of the screen :-)
[11:31] <LycoLoco> ;-)
[11:31] <livingdaylight> unop, crawling, retching, and speaking incoherently is for babies >.<
[11:32] <bimberi> Nitro: it's a package you install, for example 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'
[11:32] <Nitro> no
[11:32] <Nitro> source
[11:32] <Nitro> Can't find the 2.8 package :/
[11:32] <unop> livingdaylight,  i have to agree but that'd be me saying 76% of adults in britain (or europe for that matter) are babies then :)
[11:32] <LycoLoco> so anyway, does anyone have any ideas what could be causing my inability to even get 30 seconds into booting?
[11:32] <Nitro> using ./configure after unpacking the.tar.gz
[11:33] <bimberi> Nitro: no, in order to compile things in Ubuntu you need that package
[11:33] <Nitro> ok, I'll try.
[11:33] <LycoLoco> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2128110&postcount=399 is my problem
[11:34] <livingdaylight> unop, sure...and? ^^
[11:34] <moreo1> how can I see what my default gateway address is?
[11:34] <Nitro> seems like it's going to work :) thanks bimberi  :)
[11:34] <unop> moreo1,  route -n
[11:34] <LycoLoco> http://lycoloco.thephlogiston.com/files/images/linux.jpg - that's what happens when I boot
[11:34] <bimberi> Nitro: cool, np :)
[11:34] <unop> livingdaylight, go-go-ga-ga? :)
[11:34] <_james> how to install my sound card driver?
[11:34] <livingdaylight> unop, i have to agree but that'd be me saying 76% of adults inbritain (or europe for that matter) are not grown up:o
[11:35] <moreo1> thnx unop
[11:35] <Nitro> bimberi: do I need to relogin after it's done (the package you told me)?
[11:36] <livingdaylight> unop, im a baby still, coz i can't take care of my gnu/linux machine. Still looking for a nix guru to wipe my machine's diapers every once ina while
[11:36] <LycoLoco> Anybody with an idea as to why my machine won't boot after trying to set up my mouse? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2128110&postcount=399
[11:37] <bimberi> Nitro: no, should work straight away
[11:38] <Nitro> ok. *tries ./configure* almost, I get "configure: error: "Cannot find glib""
[11:38] <fialar> LycoLoco: where does it stop booting?
[11:39] <LycoLoco> right at that last line
[11:39] <fialar> the hdb: line?
[11:39] <LycoLoco> where it says hdb: hd...yeah
[11:39] <fialar> what is hdb?
[11:39] <fialar> a disk? a cdrom?
[11:39] <LycoLoco> yeah, a disk
[11:39] <Jowi> LycoLoco, hmmmm, that screen is a Mitsubishi. they produce cars. I think that's why it behaves as it does.... joking aside, you don't really provide much info. what did you do exactly to install that mouse...?
[11:39] <Nitro> bimberi: need to install glib?
[11:39] <fialar> LycoLoco: looks like it's having trouble mounting that disk.. or detecting it properly
[11:39] <LycoLoco> Jowi: I followed exactly what the tutorial said - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=219894&highlight=mx518
[11:40] <LycoLoco> fialar: yeah, I know what you mean, but as I said, I had this problem before after messing around with udev, and when I removed the code last time, it worked again
[11:40] <LycoLoco> not if that necessarily helps at all - just trying to give as much info as possible
[11:40] <mackinac> what is the command for XChat's URL handler to open links in firefox?
[11:40] <LycoLoco> and when I say had this problem, it hung at the exact same location
[11:40] <_james> how to restart usb?
[11:41] <fialar> LycoLoco: are you running 6.06?
[11:41] <Nitro> bimari?
[11:41] <LycoLoco> 6.10
[11:41] <Nitro> *bimbari
[11:41] <fialar> LycoLoco: you shouldn't need to edit udev to detect the mouse.. it should automatically detect it
[11:41] <tj239> What is the way to stop the blank screens from coming up when the computer is set with 'random' screensaver mode?
[11:41] <master5o1> hi
[11:41] <LycoLoco> fialar: it's not a problem about mouse detection, it's about trying to get extra buttons working
[11:42] <_james> i mean i have remove a usb device on the usb port and when i put it back it won't detect now the device.. how to restart usb?
[11:42] <master5o1> why is no one talking in offtopic..
[11:42] <LycoLoco> unfortunately, the mouse, for most intents and purposes, worked fine before I mucked around :-p
[11:42] <bimberi> Nitro: possibly.  The best way to install the required dependencies would be to 'sudo apt-get build-dep xchat'
[11:42] <fialar> LycoLoco: oh that's easy. just edit xorg.conf and put in Option "ZAxisMapping"   "4 5"
[11:42] <shinobi2> does ubuntu's graphic run good in vmware?
[11:42] <LycoLoco> fialar: yeah, now you tell me :-p
[11:43] <Nitro> aah, I'll try that bimbari
[11:43] <LycoLoco> hehe, kidding
[11:43] <_james> !vmware
[11:43] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[11:43] <LycoLoco> but all joking aside, I did want to do it "the hard way" because then I could set up imwheel to set up per-application buttons for the mouse
[11:43] <LycoLoco> @ fialar
[11:43] <Jowi> LycoLoco, ...or in xorg.conf add the option "ButtonMapping"
[11:43] <hairulf1> Hey all, what package should I get to unpack rar and r00 etc?
[11:43] <LycoLoco> Jowi: right, I'll do taht after I can get my system to boot again
[11:44] <LycoLoco> Jowi: right now, I'm a sitting duck (in XP even)

[11:45] <LycoLoco> Jowi, fialar - I don't understand what's still going wrong though - I reversed everything that I did, and I don't see anything that could have left lasting effects (other files created or whatnot), so do you guys see anything I may have overlooked?
[11:45] <bimberi> _james: Virtualisatoin software - http://www.vmware.com/
[11:45] <Jowi> _james, or vmware.com
[11:45] <_james> what does it do?
[11:45] <livingdaylight> _james, its not spyware, dont worry
[11:45] <kontingenz> someone usig a Canon 8000F USB Scanner? sane seems not to support this scanner. but I remember this scanner is unsupported since 2003! is this possible?
[11:45] <bimberi> hairulf1: yw :)
[11:45] <fialar> LycoLoco: I'd undo those 6.06 evdev / udev instructions
[11:46] <fialar> 6.06 != 6.10
[11:46] <vaderdistro> hey guys
[11:46] <LycoLoco> fialar: ok - I did remove the udev file that I created, is there anything else that would cause issues?
[11:46] <vaderdistro> anyone no if there is a internet accelarator for linux line in windows?
[11:46] <LycoLoco> fialar: any where else that I should look to delete files?
[11:46] <Jowi> _james, it handles virtual machines
[11:46] <vaderdistro> I'm new andd used one for my dialup

[11:47] <slacker_nl> lo
[11:47] <_james> Jowi: what you mean virtual machines? can i run windows program on linux with that?
[11:48] <LycoLoco> fialar: as far as I know, I didn't do anything to the system other than install imwheel, install xvkbd and xbindkeys, create the udev file (which I deleted) and edited my xorg.conf (which I returned to how it was before this mess started)
[11:48] <tj239> What is the way to stop the blank screens from coming up when the computer is set with 'random' screensaver mode?

[11:49] <slacker_nl> anybody has some idea, why I cannot install syslog-ng (aptitude will complain about a broken package: ubuntu-minimal - and will ask me to remove ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-base..)
[11:49] <vaderdistro> anyone no if there is a internet accelarator for linux line in windows?
[11:49] <tj239> fialar, thanks, I'll try that
[11:50] <slacker_nl> chrismhampson: apt-get clean is to clean your pkg cache (/var/apt/ something)
[11:50] <hairulf1> bimberi: Works like a charm, cheers mate! I my nick hairulf1? I see it as ...ulfr, strange...Encoding... :/?
[11:50] <fialar> tj239: try disabling dpms

[11:51] <Jowi> _james, you can install windows and have it run in it's own window. like this: http://burninghands.eu/pics/Screenshot-3.png

[11:51] <vaderdistro> what's the problem with thunar
[11:51] <hairulf1> bimberi: Strange, when you type it I see it as hairulf1 -
[11:52] <LycoLoco> fialar: any other ideas?
[11:52] <Jowi> _james, but it's not limited to only windows. you can set up a whole range of operating systems.
[11:52] <vaderdistro> so you need to have it mounted automatic
[11:52] <hairulf1> Ylist
[11:52] <visik7> !repo

[11:53] <_james> Jowi: kool..  but it will take more space on your disk right coz you'll have to install the whole windows?
[11:53] <chrismhampson> slacker_nl, according to man apt-get, there is no autoremove!
[11:53] <Jowi> _james, of course.
[11:54] <slacker_nl> chrismhampson: perhaps its something from aptitude
[11:54] <livingdaylight> unop, still wondering why / says 32gb 100% ?
[11:54] <_james> Jowi: how bout wine? i just want to run windows program but i can't make it work on wine can someone help me
[11:54] <chrismhampson> slacker_nl, yeah maybe...anyway is that the best way to save some space in ubuntu?
[11:54] <ailean> _james, what program?
[11:54] <shinobi2> anyone have a guess of when ubuntu 7 will release?
[11:54] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: there is an autoremove in the ubuntu version
[11:55] <livingdaylight> unop, i can understand if /home is full because i've been filling it. but what would fill / up? and disc analyser says its still 100% despite the localepurge we did
[11:55] <roodmerk> shinobi2: 7.04 -> April 2007.
[11:55] <_james> ailean: any kind of windows program

[11:55] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, what does it do that autoclean doesn't do?
[11:55] <_james> it say's it's not supported
[11:55] <ailean> _james, well it's not supported i'm afraid
[11:55] <slacker_nl> chrismhampson: seriously, run apt-get clean once every while
[11:55] <ailean> _james, hopefully it will be soon
[11:56] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: autoremove removes *installed* packages that are no longer required
[11:56] <livingdaylight> bimberi, a Fawn evoces image of something fragile. Yet it is feisty? to make up for it innate fragility?
[11:56] <chrismhampson> slacker_nl, ok will do....
[11:56] <_james> :( how bout the vmware? does it need an openglx something?
[11:56] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: autoclean empties the cache only, doesn't affect what is installed.
[11:56] <shinobi2> roodmerk:  Slart thanks
[11:56] <Jowi> _james, qemu is not that hard to set up (functions similar to vmware). you create a file of let's say 2GB and install windows in it. then you can run windows with qemu (in the screenshot i use qemu, not vmware)
[11:56] <mneptok> _james: how much experience do you have with Linux?
[11:56] <LycoLoco> Anyone else have any idea why my system won't boot after configuring my mouse? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2128110&postcount=399 is my problem
[11:56] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, how to do delete any residual install files?
[11:56] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: that'
[11:56] <bimberi> livingdaylight: sounds feasible (to use another f word :) )
[11:56] <roodmerk> s trickier.
[11:56] <livingdaylight> bimberi, however, feisty a front it is still a Fawn and wouldn't fool a lion. Who'd still kill it
[11:56] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm, how are you checking disk usage?
[11:57] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, thanks
[11:57] <Jowi> _james, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo
[11:57] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: An easy start is 'deborphan'
[11:57] <mneptok> livingdaylight: unless the fawn had a rocket launcher
[11:57] <livingdaylight> unop, Disk Usage Analyser in Accessories
[11:57] <b0sanac> hello people :]  how to set a connection ADSL ? a
[11:58] <livingdaylight> mneptok, lol, thats a common site. What to get away?
[11:58] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: Or, to remove leftover config files, 'dpkg -l | grep ^rc | awk '{print $2}' | xargs sudo dpkg --purge'
[11:58] <snail> is there a webpage I can find with recommendations of which formats to use for secondary disks?
[11:58] <_james> mneptok:  im just new to linux :(
[11:58] <unop> livingdaylight,  what does df have to say?
[11:58] <b0sanac> somebody here ?
[11:58] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, looks complicated!
[11:58] <livingdaylight> bimberi, Feisty F*****?
[11:58] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: That will find all packages marked 'rc' (Residiual Config) and purge their files from the system. They don't usually take up a lot of space, though.
[11:59] <tj239> fialar, I was curious what xset did and was looking through the man pages it has and have a question, what does the monitor do when the dpms is commandlined off ?
[11:59] <slacker_nl> anybody has some idea, why I cannot install syslog-ng (aptitude will complain about a broken package: ubuntu-minimal - and will ask me to remove ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-base..)
[11:59] <LycoLoco> Anyone else have any idea why my system won't boot after configuring my mouse? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2128110&postcount=399 is my problem
[11:59] <bimberi> livingdaylight: ... um ...
[11:59] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, where can I learn how to do this stuff in a terminal?
[11:59] <weirdie> b0sanac, private room
[11:59] <b0sanac> weirdiewait to register my nick
[11:59] <livingdaylight> unop, well df says something else
[12:00] <b0sanac> weirdiei must wait 600 seconds
[12:00] <b0sanac> :S
[12:00] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: It's all basic stuff, just chanined together with pipes - which is basic shell commands.
[12:00] <unop> livingdaylight,  it's probably the version you can trust
[12:00] <livingdaylight> unop, assures me that 10gb are actually still available on /
[12:00] <b0sanac> can you tell me on some channel we will lock it a ?
[12:00] <b0sanac> pls
[12:00] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: I guess I learned by idling on #debian and looking what others do :-)
[12:00] <slacker_nl> lol
[12:00] <mneptok> _james: if i were you, i would not try VMware and WINE and all that stuff until you have a little experience. crawl before you try and walk. or run.
[12:00] <unop> livingdaylight,  which sounds reasonable .. i dont see any linux PC taking up an entire 32GB just for /
[12:00] <slacker_nl> roodmerk: from the coffee?
[12:00] <livingdaylight> unop, yea...i think i should immediatly go and kill Disk Analiser
[12:00] <weirdie> b0sanac, #myLinux
[12:00] <roodmerk> slacker_nl: tuurlijk
[12:00] <unop> livingdaylight,  or upgrade it :)
[12:00] <livingdaylight> unop, well, thats what had me flumaxed to
[12:00] <roodmerk> slacker_nl: backup nick van 'cafuego' ;-)
[12:01] <livingdaylight> *too
[12:01] <_james> mneptok: how bout qemu?
[12:01] <slacker_nl> roodmerk: why nof redband ;)
[12:01] <slacker_nl> not
[12:01] <b0sanac> weirdie ok join in
[12:01] <mneptok> _james: why do you need hardware virtualization?
[12:01] <cafuego> liar!
[12:02] <_james> i just want to access windows programs and files :)
[12:02] <b0sanac> weirdie join in #bosanac
[12:02] <unop> livingdaylight,  false-positives can render you panicking :)
[12:02] <livingdaylight> unop, so its only /home actually at 88% that is a concern.
[12:02] <roodmerk> slacker_nl: It's all about the coffee, not the licorice.
[12:02] <mneptok> _james: well, have you *tried* Linux apps?
[12:02] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, what does the awk '{print $2} bit do?
[12:02] <slacker_nl> roodmerk: I ment redbrand (I love making typo's today)
[12:02] <unop> livingdaylight,  yea, so if you move your music onto the new partition you should have plenty there
[12:03] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: it splits the input line on the default separator (space or tab) and prints only field #2.
[12:03] <unop> chrismhampson,  prints the second token in the input to it
[12:03] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: Which would be the package name.
[12:03] <slacker_nl> *zucht* the pastebins are slow today...
[12:03] <_james> mneptok:  nope
[12:03] <livingdaylight> unop, ok, so one way i thought is to install a really light second distro on sda5; the other is what you metnioned earlier ...what was that?
[12:03] <roodmerk> chrismhampson: check `echo "this is only a test" | awk '{print $3}'
[12:03] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, thanks for that
[12:03] <mneptok> _james: so .... why are you trying Linux?
[12:03] <mneptok> ;)
[12:04] <roodmerk> slacker_nl: redbrand would be english eh, not dutch.
[12:04] <livingdaylight> unop, i could install a another distro then mount my /home/me/music and keep it all there
[12:04] <_james> dude you're so rude
[12:04] <roodmerk> slacker_nl: Incidentally, it'd be "red label"
[12:04] <mneptok> _james: i see no point in running Linux if all you do is run Windows apps.
[12:04] <_james> will you just help me instead
[12:04] <livingdaylight> unop, or i use gparted to do something with sda5?
[12:04] <chrismhampson> roodmerk, yep i see what you mean
[12:04] <mneptok> _james: it's a fair question.
[12:04] <slacker_nl> roodmerk: I would link that to whiskey, not coffee ;)
[12:05] <roodmerk> slacker_nl: I dislike whisky. Quite a lot.
[12:05] <mneptok> _james: it's not rude. it's understandable confusion.
[12:05] <_james> whatever you say
[12:05] <_james> i need someone to help me :)
[12:05] <ardchoille> _james: What do you need help with?
[12:06] <Madpilot> _james, what do you need/want to do that you're so convinced you need Windows apps for?
[12:06] <livingdaylight> unop, i was thinking of Zenwalk, but they use lilo and last time it messed up my grub real bad
[12:06] <_james> i need help on installing QEmo
[12:06] <livingdaylight> unop, couldn' tboot into ubuntu anymore
[12:06] <unop> livingdaylight,  if i were you, i'd forget gparted and simply format /dev/sda5 .. mount it as something like /multimedia via /etc/fstab .. copy all the music and movies (and pr0n) to /multimedia and create a symlink so that /home/multimedia points to /multimedia
[12:06] <slacker_nl> http://pb.beeman.nl/6 - syslog-ng problem with deps to ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-base
[12:06] <slacker_nl> anyone that can help me, to get syslog-ng installed from the repo's without breaking ubuntu minimal?
[12:06] <ardchoille> _james: Sorry, can't help. I use only Linux and therefore have no need for vm's or other OS's
[12:07] <livingdaylight> unop, woah...quite a few steps there
[12:07] <livingdaylight> unop, format as in with fdisk or cfdisk?
[12:07] <unop> livingdaylight,  right now /dev/sda5 is ntfs right?
[12:07] <DjDarkman> hy ,how can I conenct to a dial up broadhand connection?
[12:07] <Madpilot> _james, back up one step - what're you trying to do that utterly needs a Windows app?
[12:07] <livingdaylight> unop, errr..i don't even think so...
[12:07] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm, no mkfs
[12:08] <erUSUL> slacker_nl: just uninstall the metapackage, there is no other way afaik  (and remember to install it again during a dist upgrade
[12:08] <livingdaylight> unop, can you talk me through it? if not i understand . You've already helped me alot
[12:08] <_james> Madpilot:  ok i just want to have both the os.. i just want my box to be totally equipped
[12:08] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm according to the fdisk -l you pasted earlier -- it is an ntfs partition
[12:08] <_james> :)

[12:09] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, you sure you backed up everything off of that partition ?
[12:09] <slacker_nl> erUSUL: I can't afford downtime on this machine (not for a long period at least
[12:09] <ardchoille> b0sanac: I can try. What's your issue?
[12:09] <Madpilot> _james, not sure how "inflicting Windows on yourself" translates to "totally equipped", but in any case, all I've done is mess with wine a bit, never touched the full VMs...
[12:09] <b0sanac> archangelpetro i can't connect my ADSL from system administration networking i must connect the interhet from terminal but i dont know how :S
[12:10] <ardchoille> b0sanac: Sorry, can't help. Never had a problem with ADSL
[12:10] <tj239> is there a webpage that lists the different commands that can be run in Ubuntu?  xset is something I had never heard of or seen while in here.  of course I pretty newb just coming from Winders
[12:10] <livingdaylight> unop, yes, i forgot i had prepared it for xp. now have i backed everything up off of what partition sda5? it is empty
[12:10] <b0sanac> ardchoille but ubotu bot maybe can help me try with him pLS
[12:11] <b0sanac> i really need help
[12:11] <b0sanac> to set connectio
[12:11] <slacker_nl> b0sanac: what kind of connection do you need to setup?

[12:11] <b0sanac> slacker_nl please can you help me :( ?
[12:12] <_`XeOn_> hello guys where i can find help for setting up an Unrealircd server?
[12:12] <slacker_nl> b0sanac: don't have the time atm
[12:12] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, in that case -- run this command - sudo mkfs /dev/sda5 -t ext3
[12:12] <freakabcd> hi all
[12:12] <slacker_nl> b0sanac: read man interfaces
[12:12] <freakabcd> network-admin keeps crashing for me every time i start it!
[12:12] <b0sanac> slacker_nl can you help me with ubotu yes i will read interfaces but tell me PLS
[12:12] <b0sanac> tell me some website
[12:12] <erUSUL> slacker_nl: as i understand you when you try to install syslog-ng ubuntu-minmal and ubuntu-base are being removed
[12:12] <b0sanac> to apt-get install bla bla
[12:13] <b0sanac> i dont know
[12:13] <bimberi> !adsl
[12:13] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[12:13] <slacker_nl> erUSUL: yes, correct
[12:13] <bakert> Does anyone know how I can add a channel to those that load automatically when I start xchat?
[12:13] <erUSUL> slacker_nl: i only told you that this are meta-packages that can be safely removed
[12:13] <ardchoille> unop: Is that how you format a partition to ext3?
[12:13] <livingdaylight> unop, done
[12:13] <slacker_nl> erUSUL: ahh, ok
[12:13] <unop> ardchoille,  yep
[12:13] <b0sanac> slacker_nl pls can you ?
[12:13] <erUSUL> slacker_nl: as long as you remember to install them again if you ever do a dist-upgrade of the machine
[12:13] <ardchoille> unop: Thanks :)
[12:14] <slacker_nl> b0sanac: I can't have to make things work at work
[12:14] <erUSUL> !meta-package | slacker_nl
[12:14] <ubotu> slacker_nl: A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions.
[12:14] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, now add an entry into /etc/fstab -- open it up -- gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
[12:14] <_`XeOn_> any1 plz tell me where to find support to setup an unreal server
[12:14] <livingdaylight> unop, which gksudo or gedit?
[12:14] <_`XeOn_> !unrealircd
[12:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unrealircd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:14] <unop> livingdaylight,  actually you need a mount point first -- sudo mkdir /media/multimedia
[12:14] <slacker_nl> erUSUL: I've had some problems with meta-packages in the past..
[12:14] <slacker_nl> well, I'll give it a shot
[12:14] <_`XeOn_> im going to cry!
[12:15] <slacker_nl> erUSUL: merci
[12:15] <arke> Hi. How do I enable write permission for USB disks that I plug in?
[12:15] <unop> livingdaylight,  both - gksudo is the GUI alt. for sudo
[12:15] <b0sanac> !connection
[12:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about connection - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:15] <Nitro> . I used make, and the sudo make install bimberi, but when you try to start it, you get the "is no such file or folder" error
[12:15] <b0sanac> can somebody help me ?
[12:16] <b0sanac> !connection b0sanac
[12:16] <freakabcd> !network-admin
[12:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about network-admin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:16] <livingdaylight> unop, ok, i'm in it
[12:16] <erUSUL> slacker_nl: np
[12:16] <bimberi> put the whole error on a pastebin - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:16] <bimberi> !adsl | b0sanac
[12:16] <ubotu> b0sanac: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[12:16] <livingdaylight> unop,  is performing surgery on my computer
[12:16] <scv> b0sanac, you chould ask for help to the isp guy
[12:16] <unop> livingdaylight,  once you have fstab open -- add an entry at the end -- /dev/sda5  /media/multimedia  ext3    defaults        0       2
[12:17] <unop> livingdaylight,  this is supposing you did create the mount point
[12:17] <unop> livingdaylight,  once done here -- save the file, exit and run this command -- sudo mount -a
[12:17] <Terminus-> anybody here getting weird linux-image-686 depends for linux-image-2.6.15-28-686(which does not exist) from a recent dapper update?
[12:17] <KS-Fan> trk yokmu amk
[12:18] <KS-Fan> trk yokmu amk
[12:18] <Terminus-> same thing for linux-image-386. it's looking 2.6.15-28 which doesn't exist.
[12:18] <livingdaylight> unop, mount point /media/multimedia ? sure... i'm right with you like a true grasshopper don't you worry
[12:18] <erUSUL> Terminus-: same problem in edgy. i'm going to check launchpad
[12:18] <arke> is ntfs write possible, or only ntfs read?
[12:19] <Terminus-> erUSUL: roger. i'll check too. =)
[12:19] <Nitro> bimberi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4837/
[12:19] <unop> livingdaylight,  :) .. ok, so you ran mount -a then?
[12:19] <unop> :)
[12:20] <livingdaylight> unop, lol mount: mount point /media/multimedia does not exist.
[12:20] <unop> livingdaylight,  lol :))
[12:20] <livingdaylight> unop, but i know i did, i did
[12:20] <unop> livingdaylight,  ls -ld /media/multimedia
[12:21] <livingdaylight> unop, it insists that /media /multimedia doesnt exist
[12:21] <slacker_nl> erUSUL: thnx, it worked
[12:21] <erUSUL> Terminus-: XD
[12:21] <erUSUL> slacker_nl: no problem
[12:21] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm ,... no spaces there
[12:21] <slacker_nl> erUSUL: better safe then sorry :)
[12:21] <Nitro> bimberi: Why won't it work?
[12:21] <Terminus-> erUSUL: there's a linux-source-2.6.15 2.6.15-27.50 in launchpad. maybe it just hasn't made the repos yet?
[12:21] <bimberi> Nitro: hm. if everything worked without error it should be there.  Does 'ls /usr/bin/xchat' return anythibng?
[12:22] <bimberi> -b
[12:22] <unop> livingdaylight,  but does it exist? mind the spellings and other errors/typos
[12:22] <livingdaylight> unop, sudo mkdir /media/multimedia i copied and pasted this command earlier, so....
[12:22] <Nitro> nope
[12:22] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, so verify it exists -- ls -ld /media/multimedia
[12:23] <bimberi> Nitro: 'ls /usr/bin/*xchat*' ?
[12:23] <erUSUL> Terminus-: that's what i thought yesterday... the roblem is lasting too much to be a problem with repo sync. imho
[12:23] <unop> livingdaylight,  and are you sudoing the mount command? zat's vevvy vevvy impotent :)
[12:23] <livingdaylight> unop, i just verified with nautilus and yes i see the directory multimedia in media
[12:23] <Nitro> still negative bimberi
[12:23] <Nitro> erm, bimbari, doy uo have to make/make install from / ?
[12:23] <livingdaylight> unop, aha....!!sudo ls -ld /media/multimedia ? no i just copied how you gave it to me
[12:24] <Nitro> or can you simply do it anywhere?
[12:24] <bimberi> Nitro: no, from the directory with the source code
[12:24] <unop> livingdaylight, not sudo for ls -- sudo for mount :p   sudo mount -a
[12:24] <Nitro> okey, then I did it right.
[12:24] <Nitro> why not it show then :<
[12:24] <Terminus-> erUSUL: hmmm... the one available on launchpad is -27, not -28. maybe the version numbers got messed up? -27 is supposed to supersede -26.
[12:25] <bimberi> Nitro: seemes so, is there any clues in the output of the commands? or in the INSTALL file perhaps?
[12:25] <livingdaylight> unop, yes
[12:25] <livingdaylight> unop, doesn't acknowledge /media/multimedia but i see it in nautilus
[12:25] <livingdaylight> unop, so the dir was created
[12:26] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, !pastebin your /etc/fstab file .. let me have a look at it
[12:26] <erUSUL> Terminus-: in edgy there is a .17-10 and a .17-50 !!! but the linux-image-generic requires an inexistent .17-11
[12:26] <Nitro> bimbari: in the install files is the "step by step", which is how I did it
[12:26] <Nitro> *INSTALL file
[12:26] <Terminus-> erUSUL: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/dapper/+package/linux-image-2.6.15-27-686 has been published. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/dapper/+package/linux-image-2.6.15-50-686 has been marked as published but is also marked as a proposal. >_<
[12:26] <livingdaylight> unop, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4838/
[12:27] <Terminus-> erUSUL: those are the two most recent i can see on launchpad, none of them match the -28 dep in apt.
[12:27] <korlink> i have a problem, i cant connect my pc with ubuntu(just installed) to me wireless network T_T
[12:27] <bimberi> Nitro: them I am at a loss.  perhaps 'sudo updatedb' then see if 'locate xchat | grep bin' returns anything
[12:28] <Nitro> I'll try
[12:28] <GaiaX11> Will be it possible to upgrade from dapper to feisty?
[12:29] <timShady> hey ho all, having a little problem upgrading the kernel in my edgy. I was originally on named kernels, but changed to the 'generic' ones when going to 2.6.17-10. Version 2.6.17.11 got listed on my updates today, but it seems that I have broken packages (unmet dependencies on kernel headers, linux-image-generic and linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-11-generic). Any clues?
[12:29] <unop> GaiaX11,  sure .. but the recommended/safe route is through edgy (which i think is a waste of time and bandwidth) .. what you do depends on your mileage
[12:29] <Terminus-> timShady: i'm having the same problem on dapper and erUSUL is having the same problem on edgy.
[12:29] <Nitro> bimberi: do you know of a package of xchat-2.8?
[12:30] <stinger_au> yo
[12:30] <bimberi> Nitro: no
[12:30] <Nitro> ok
[12:30] <stinger_au> does anyone know if kaffeine needs something to be installed in order to record ?
[12:30] <bimberi> !info xchat feisty
[12:30] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm, i cant seem to find anything wrong with it -- try decreasing the amount of whitespace between fields on that line .. 2 spaces should do
[12:30] <ubotu> xchat: IRC client for X similar to AmIRC. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.8.0-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 295 kB, installed size 796 kB
[12:30] <stinger_au> ffmpeg maybe ?
[12:30] <stinger_au> atm i can not install
[12:30] <stinger_au> i mean i can not recorde
[12:30] <timShady> Terminus, think it'll probably be a case of waiting a day or two for the repos to sorted?
[12:30] <stinger_au> record
[12:30] <Nitro> feisty bimberi?
[12:30] <bimberi> Nitro: there you go, you could try backporting the feisty package
[12:31] <livingdaylight> unop, i preempted your thoughts exactly and pasted the way you put it originally, but sudo mount -a gives me the same reply. I don't think therefore that the spaces matter
[12:31] <xavelabeth> xavela
[12:31] <korlink> i can`t connect to my wireless network, no matter what i do... am i forgetting something?
[12:31] <Nitro> Nitro: Do I need to add a line to sources.list?

[12:31] <Terminus-> timShady: maybe. the i'm having problems with linux-image-2.6.15-28-686 deps. the most recent i see on launchpad is -27. there's -50 there that's proposed AND published (mind boggling). i've got the -27 installed right now.
[12:32] <Terminus-> !info linux-image-686 dapper
[12:32] <GaiaX11> unop: The problem is that I haven't been lucky with edgy. I tried to install it about 4 times, but I was always stuck in a blank screen. And even running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg did not do the trick for me. So, I hope to be luckier with feisty

[12:32] <Zaggynl> Is there a way to get the list of starting/stopping services back at boot/shutdown in Edgy?
[12:32] <Nitro> *bimberi, do I have to add a line to sources.list?
[12:33] <Nitro> (btw i'm on 6.06)
[12:33] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm .. try mounting the partition from the command line - sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda5 /media/multimedia
[12:33] <Terminus-> oh, and backports are disabled here. i've got main/restricted/universe/multiverse for dapper, dapper-updates, and dapper-security.
[12:33] <timShady> Terminus, good luck! I think I'll have to wait until the weekend for a proper look at this one (at work, and hence meant to be doing work)
[12:34] <timShady> cya all :)
[12:34] <livingdaylight> unop, same
[12:34] <Nitro> bimberi ?
[12:34] <Terminus-> timShady: i'm at work too, and i should be doing more productive things for the company. =D
[12:34] <Terminus-> guess i'll have to wait this one out too.
[12:34] <livingdaylight> unop, mount: mount point /media/multimedia does not exist
[12:35] <livingdaylight> unop, imagine i tried to do this myself! lol
[12:35] <bimberi> Nitro: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268687
[12:35] <unop> Zaggynl,  /etc/rc2.d contains the scripts for runlevel2(the default) /etc/rc6.d for reboot  .. the files starting with S in those directories indicate services starting .. files with K indicate services stopping
[12:36] <Zaggynl> unop, I mean, when I boot/shutdown Edgy, I only get to see a orange bar going from left to right or vice versa
[12:36] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, what does this command return (no nautilus please :) )  ls -ld "/media/multimedia"
[12:36] <livingdaylight> unop, worse come to worse, you've helped me change the ntfs to ext3 so it si ready for a light distro. I can from there then try to mount sda2 and bring my /home/me/music over
[12:36] <Zaggynl> unop, I kinda miss the list from Dapper :)
[12:37] <unop> Zaggynl,  you mean the verbose output eh? ahh .. just edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file and take out the "splash" keyword from the kernel entry
[12:37] <livingdaylight> unop, conrad@Dune:~$ ls -ld "/media/multimedia"
[12:37] <livingdaylight> ls: /media/multimedia: No such file or directory
[12:37] <Zaggynl> unop, ah thanks <3
[12:37] <unop> livingdaylight,  well -- there you go -- the file does not exist :p
[12:38] <unop> livingdaylight, how about this -  ls -ld /media/multimedia
[12:38] <Nitro> bimbari: So first I install the 2.6.6 package, and then update?
[12:38] <livingdaylight> unop, we tried that earlier, withteh same result. how comes when i checked with nautiuls it was there? i did put the mkdir etc in so, why would the ocmmand not have worked?
[12:39] <Gosha> !tablet
[12:39] <bimberi> Nitro: no, follow that guide to build a package from feisty sources
[12:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tablet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:39] <jakeyfu> last night, I tried to sync my pda with ubuntu 6.06. but failed again and again!
[12:39] <korlinr> i cannot connecto to my wireless network.... i tried it all...(ubuntu just installed)
[12:39] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm, you probably copied extra whitespace in so that when you issued the mkdir it created something like "/media/multimedia  " .. note the space at the end
[12:40] <Araelius> hello all
[12:40] <livingdaylight> unop, arrghh... aguess that is always possible
[12:40] <livingdaylight> now what?
[12:40] <unop> livingdaylight,  sudo rm -rf /media/multimedia*
[12:40] <livingdaylight> unop, done
[12:40] <unop> livingdaylight,  type this one out :) -- sudo mkdir /media/multimedia
[12:40] <Araelius> I am having an issue installing ubuntu, I can't seem to create new partitions, it seems to fail when I manually resize the original partition, any ideas?
[12:41] <livingdaylight> unop, done
[12:41] <unop> livingdaylight,  verify - ls -ld /media/multi*
[12:41] <livingdaylight> unop, i do'tn know about the white space, coz i juist highlight and then copy it with middle click
[12:41] <bimberi> Araelius: does it say you don't have a root partition or something?
[12:42] <unop> livingdaylight,  yep, it's likely when you highlighted, whitespace was caught in the crossfire :)
[12:42] <livingdaylight> unop, yea!
[12:42] <unop> livingdaylight, ok  sudo mount -a
[12:42] <Araelius> i don't recall, it said something along the lines of checking my filesystem
[12:42] <jakeyfu> anyone who had succeeded in syncing pda with ubuntu?
[12:42] <rizhun> I love Ubuntu!
[12:42] <livingdaylight> unop, we're in business again
[12:42] <unop> livingdaylight,  ok, what does that mean? :)
[12:42] <livingdaylight> unop, have to go back to fstab ?
[12:43] <livingdaylight> unop,  it worked! /media/multimedia is there
[12:43] <unop> livingdaylight,  errm no .. did the mount succeed?
[12:43] <korlinr> cant connect ubuntu with wieless network T_T help
[12:43] <unop> livingdaylight,  verrify that -- mount
[12:43] <rizhun> First time install - got it all up and running in 2 hours (including wireless and beryl)
[12:43] <rizhun> class.
[12:43] <bimberi> Araelius: i've had similar issues with the gui installer and eventually had to resort to the alterate cd :|
[12:43] <livingdaylight> unop, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4843/
[12:44] <livingdaylight> unop, how do i verify?
[12:44] <Araelius> hmm, weird that it would give me issues now considering i have installed Ubuntu previously with no issues
[12:44] <unop> livingdaylight,  type out the command - mount
[12:44] <Araelius> what exactly is the purpose of the alternate cd?
[12:44] <unop> livingdaylight,  ahh, you see the spelling mistake here - /media/multimdia :)
[12:45] <bimberi> Araelius: it uses the classic text-mode installer, similar to earlier ubuntu versions
[12:45] <bimberi> !alternate
[12:45] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.

[12:49] <mandrill> I've just installed from the desktop CD to what was my C:\ drive in windows, and now thats all I can see. I have two NTFS formatted SATA drives (full of stuff which I want to keep, music and the like) which I can't see. theres no disk management option in the administration menu (like it says in the help) and I don't really want to type stuff into the terminal without knowing what I'm doing in case I lose my data. can anyone help?
[12:49] <tom47> webboss is there a holdback?
[12:51] <bimberi> mandrill: type 'sudo fdisk -l' in the terminal to see if the partitions are still there
[12:51] <webboss> tom47: well when running an update I get : the following updates will be skipped linux-image-386   and linux-restricted-modules-386   - prob goes away if you disable the security repositry - tho this is obviously not a solution
[12:51] <stinger_au> any one got any ideas why  i can not record in kaffeine ?
[12:52] <Araelius> well i give up, thanks anyway guys for trying to help
[12:52] <unop> webboss,  the kernel packages require you to manually install them for them to be upgraded, this is so that you know and are aware of this happening
[12:52] <teleyinex> 1hi

[12:54] <unop> webboss, yes, there's a small bug in relation to that .. a report has been filed -- give it a few days :)
[12:54] <mandrill> bimberi: whats that on the end? is is a capital i or a small L#

[12:54] <mdh__> webboss: I get the same here.  looks like the -11 kernel package wasn't uploaded to the security archive
[12:54] <teleyinex> I wondering two things: first how can I make that my laptop brightness at boottime is low instead of high, and second one how can I enable nvidia output rgb with one command or something like i810switch crt on

[12:56] <unop> progek,  whats the name of this link?
[12:57] <progek> et
[12:57] <progek> that used to open the game
[12:57] <mandrill> yes it sees the disks. bimberi
[12:57] <unop> progek,  ohh, something in the menu?
[12:57] <KomiaPoika> can anyone help me, i got a PowerVault 110T tape drive i need to get working in ubuntu 6.10, i can see the device in proc/scsci/scsi, but i don't have the st0 in /dev ... anyone has experience with this?

[12:58] <ubotu> mandrill: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[12:58] <unop> progek,  if thats the case you should find the entry in /usr/share/applications/ .. probably named something like et.entry
[12:58] <progek> no sorry, I should have explained better. I installed enemy territory and would run it by typing et in terminal. I removed enemy territory but et still tries to run the game. I would like to remove this link
[12:59] <progek> rather, so if I type et I will get (command not found)
[12:59] <KomiaPoika> progek: .bashrc .bash_alias .bash_profile
[12:59] <unop> progek,  ok -- was this game installed via a ubuntu package ?

[12:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:59] <unop> progek,  this should do it - sudo rm -rf `which et`
[12:59] <progek> no, it was a .bin   I changed the mod then ran it ./
[12:59] <mandrill> thnx I'll give that a go.
[01:00] <progek> thanks both of you
[01:00] <bimberi> mandrill: yw :)

[01:09] <mdh__> mamzers555: I hunted around and it looks like the two required kernel packages were not uploaded to the archives
[01:09] <mamzers555> mdh__; i don't know if it is safe to reboot then
[01:09] <slavekk> jrib: yes, i want to install these packages but where can i get them
[01:09] <jrib> slavekk: they do not exist
[01:09] <brucedes> also, does anyone know how to get tap clicking on a trackpad to work?

[01:11] <slavekk> jrib: nope, but my processor ist sempron 64bit. i had used xubuntu 64 bit eralier
[01:12] <unop> slavekk,  what matters now is -- are you currently running 64bit ubuntu?
[01:12] <slavekk> unop: no!
[01:12] <jrib> slavekk: then you cannot install them.  Why do you want to install them?
[01:12] <unop> slavekk,  well, there you go -- it looks like the packages are for 64bit ubuntu only
[01:12] <mamzers555> mdh__; ok, thanks. i thought i could run in trouble, cause in synaptic i have selected to auto-update the auto-install of security-updates
[01:13] <ul1024k> hey, I just tried to start with ubuntu but I couldn't, so I tried recovery mode ( or whatever ) and it told me it couldn't find DSDT... anyone can help?
[01:13] <slavekk> unop. strange thing, i want to use skype and there were similar errors

[01:15] <slavekk> ??
[01:15] <slavekk> ok

[01:18] <geckino> in man page: =/foo p+i+n+u+g+s+m+c+md5 -> This config adds all files under /foo because they match to regex /foo, which is equivalent to /foo.* . What you probably want is: =/foo$ p+i+n+u+g+s+m+c+md5

[01:18] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[01:18] <geckino> Note that the following still works as expected because =/foo$ stop recuring of directory /foo.
[01:19] <slavekk> jrib. another problem: You have to install the Gtk+ development (and runtime?) libraries version 2.4.x or superior
[01:20] <slavekk> where can i get it?
[01:20] <jrib> slavekk: lets fix one thing at a time
[01:20] <unop> geckino,  ok i think i get what you mean -- you want to know why /boot$ fails while /boot seems to work?
[01:21] <geckino> yes
[01:21] <nickxydas> hello
[01:21] <nickxydas> i was wondering whats the url for the automatic software tool?
[01:21] <unop> geckino,  errm .. well for one -- does BinLib change the way =/boot$ is checked?
[01:22] <nickxydas> i thought it was www.automatic.com
[01:22] <nickxydas> but its taking me to another site
[01:22] <unop> geckino,  also try  /boot/$
[01:22] <jrib> slavekk: did you pastebin the errors you were getting before?
[01:22] <nickxydas> i mean i thought it was www.getautomatc.com
[01:22] <ardchoille> Are the linux-image packages in Dapper repos broken ATM?
[01:23] <nickxydas> also when i did all the updates the system told me to do after i installed ubuntu dapper version it said do go into synaptic and do mark all upgrades but then what do i do?
[01:23] <ul1024k> why doesn't anyone answer my question?
[01:23] <geckino> if I set =/boot$ BinLib, if I change for example a file in this directory, aide dont' see ..! But if I set /boot BinLib it see!
[01:23] <slavekk> jrib. i will back.
[01:23] <mdh__> nickxydas: www.getautomatix.com
[01:23] <geckino> excuse my english :D
[01:23] <ardchoille> ul1024k: Maybe no one knows the answer?
[01:23] <ul1024k> damn
[01:23] <grimsan> Hi, when i restard my computer, the password for the ftp im using is reset, why is that? im using gproftpd
[01:23] <ardchoille> mdh__: Please do not recommend automatix in here
[01:23] <mneptok> nickxydas: please ignore that URL and do not use Automatix
[01:24] <ardchoille> !automatix | mdh__

[01:24] <ul1024k> thanks
[01:24] <mdh__> sorry ardchoille
[01:24] <geckino> it see only wit /boot BinLib

[01:24] <jmspeex> Apt wants me to remove packages linux-generic and linux-restricted-modules-generic. Any idea why?
[01:25] <ardchoille> unop: You didn't read my post, obviously :)
[01:25] <nickxydas> what do you guys reccomend for installng software then?  synaptic?
[01:25] <unop> geckino,  maybe you do want /boot.*$ really
[01:25] <mdh__> nickxydas: apt-get comes with the system for free
[01:25] <lpf> how do you uninstall Automatix ?
[01:25] <jrib> nickxydas: synaptic, apt-get, aptitude
[01:25] <mdh__> nickxydas: the ubuntu forums recommend aptitude though
[01:25] <unop> ardchoille,  ahh yea, stupid me, obviously :)
[01:25] <nickxydas> i do not know what what apt-get is
[01:25] <nickxydas> just synaptic i am a newbie

[01:26] <geckino> with /boot BinLib option it see
[01:26] <geckino> done!
[01:26] <nickxydas> when i did the updates after ubuntu installed it said something couldn't be updated because something would have to be unistalled and it said to go into synaptic and mark all upgrades  did that but then i didn't know what to do i dind't see a buttoton for apply or install

[01:26] <edward_> Hello
[01:26] <edward_> Anybody here?
[01:26] <edward_> ...
[01:27] <mandrill> Now I can see my SATA drives :) I'd like to make them readable and writeable from another machine on my network which is running windows. is that possible?
[01:27] <jrib> edward_: yes, many people
[01:27] <wamty_> anyone?
[01:28] <edward_> Wow talk about lag
[01:28] <jrib> wamty_: why don't you install a stable version?
[01:28] <nickxydas> thanks for the links guys i will check them out
[01:28] <yommb> wamty : I wouldn't install an Alpha on a production machine or server or anything that has important data or services on it ...
[01:28] <mdh__> wamty_: is it a bad idea to chase 8 yr olds instead of your current wife?
[01:28] <unop> mandrill, sure -- you need to configure !samba for that
[01:29] <xopher> mdh__, might be yes
[01:29] <mandrill> ah, samba. I've heard of that. is is in ubuntu as std?
[01:29] <yommb> wamty : but iof you are experimenting on a home machine , go for the 7 alpha .. it's nice :)
[01:29] <edward_> How do I dissabel jpoin and leave messages? Im using Xchat... thanks
[01:29] <Martyo> Is it feasable to use ubuntu on a usb flash drive 8 hours a day at work and then 2-3 hours in the evening?
[01:29] <Martyo> or is the usb drive likely to die from all that use?
[01:30] <nickxydas> i tried downlaoading the newest version of the chirsitan vesion of ubuntu bc i gave away the version ihave to my preist and it didn't work i downloaded the iso twice and burned it twice i started to download the stable version and i decided to give up and just install the regular version since i ordered five copeis from the company
[01:30] <mackinac> edward_, right click on the chan tab
[01:30] <unop> mandrill, the server, i dont think so -- to check if its installed - dpkg -l samba
[01:30] <nickxydas> maybe only the dapper version of christian edition works on my computer
[01:30] <nickxydas> because the edgy version of the christian edition wouldn't boot for some reason
[01:30] <edward_> There are no tabs?
[01:30] <yommb> Martyo : i love usb flasherrs & pen & sticks , the thing is , a lot of mine died .. so beware if you store critcal data on it .. make sure u have a backup !
[01:31] <Martyo> yommb: how long did they last and how much did you use it?
[01:31] <unop> Martyo,  they reckon flash storage can be overwritten some 500,000 to 10,000,000 times before giving up -- so, there's another thing to consider :)
[01:31] <black_13> what is casper
[01:31] <mackinac> edward_,  ... a tree then that list the chans you're on?
[01:31] <nickxydas> so how do i access aptitude
[01:31] <nickxydas> and how can i switch from gnome to kde in ubuntu?
[01:31] <linux1> hiya ppl ive install a new kernel and i didnt show up in grub how do i fix this ((sudo update-grub or sudo update-initramfs -u)
[01:32] <linux1> or both

[01:32] <jrib> nickxydas: did you read the guide about apt-get that ubotu sent you before?
[01:32] <edward_> OK I must be missing something here

[01:38] <yommb> martyo : i'm not familiar with those figures , it does seem like a lot ! , How does this compare to , let's say an average hard disk ? any idea ?
[01:39] <Martyo> yommb: good question, I'll see what I can find on google
[01:43] <wamty_> alfa 3 should be stabler than 5.10?

[01:43] <strav> hi there... I'm having a small problem with my router/linux configuration. Actually, I have a linksys BEFR41 v.2 that's accessing the net via pppoe (so far so good, the connection is fine). Now, the router serves as a gateway at ip 192.168.1.1 and offers 50 ip from 192.168.1.100. When I look at my dhcp tables, I can indeed see my client that's connected (beside of a weird hostname). Now, when I try to ping google or my nameservers, e
[01:43] <strav> verything is fine while a traceroute or any http request return no result... anyone can provide a hand on that?
[01:44] <jrib> wamty_: if you want something more recent than 5.10 that is stable use 6.06 or 6.10
[01:45] <Akuma_> i've just recieved kernel update notifications but cant select them all. is that normal or did i screw something up?
[01:45] <H0lyD4wg> apt-cache and dpkg -S find results for "quodlibet" but when i try to "apt-get install quodlibet" it tells me "E: Couldn't find package qoudlibet". why does this happen?
[01:45] <wamty_> jrib: 6.10 wont install
[01:45] <jrib> H0lyD4wg: you spelled it wrong the last time
[01:45] <screechingcat> I am trying to get the lastest fiesty installed on my computer but the live cd's partitioner says no devices found. i get the same error on an edgy live cd. opensuse is able to recognize it and install on it
[01:45] <jrib> wamty_: will 6.06?
[01:46] <wamty_> jrib: i dont know but alfa 3 is on its way
[01:46] <jrib> screechingcat: #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[01:46] <H0lyD4wg> jrib, thanks
[01:46] <screechingcat> jrib: this isnt a feisty specific question. ANY ubuntu live cd is not able to "detect devices"
[01:47] <jrib> screechingcat: k, then say that :)
[01:47] <jrib> screechingcat: erm I didn't read, sorry.  I tend to read first lines
[01:48] <jrib> screechingcat: what chipset on the mobo?
[01:48] <screechingcat> jrib:  its an Intel D845
[01:49] <r_rehashed> hello everybody :)
[01:49] <jrib> wamty_: that's fine, just realize it's a development release and shouldn't be used on systems that you need to use daily without problems
[01:49] <wamty_> when i try to install 6.10 it boots from the cd..., the menu appears i click on load/install ubuntu....,and just before the active desktop splashscreen displays it gives me an error
[01:49] <wamty_> error is something about expecting a null value with the a huh? thrown in there
[01:49] <screechingcat> jrib: i have installed (and crahsed and so removed and reinstalled) ubuntu several times on this machine. so its not a problem of unsupported hardware.
[01:50] <screechingcat> jrib: i get 2 options - erase entire disk and install or manually partition. when i hit manually partition, it says "no devices detected"
[01:51] <r_rehashed> intel's drivers for it's graphics cards Open Source, right? does intel provide closed source binary drivers for its chipsets too?
[01:51] <jrib> screechingcat: do you mean the installer crashed?
[01:51] <wamty_> with ubuntu 5.10  you cant change ur passwords using the gui method. (it's ment to let you)
[01:51] <wamty_> im hopeing they've solved that bug by this version
[01:51] <r_rehashed> ...cards are* Open Source...
[01:52] <screechingcat> jrib: nop., i also ran gparted seperately and i got the same message
[01:52] <jrib> screechingcat: what crashed exactly?
[01:53] <screechingcat> jrib: it did not crash.
[01:53] <jrib> screechingcat: what did you mean by " i have installed (and crahsed and so removed and reinstalled)"
[01:54] <screechingcat> jrib: just that i've installed and used Ubuntu many times vefore on this computer
[01:54] <screechingcat> jrib: *before
[01:54] <jrib> screechingcat: using the livecd?
[01:55] <jrib> screechingcat: have you tried the alternate cd?
[01:55] <screechingcat> jrib: yes and no
[01:55] <jrib> screechingcat: give the alternate a try
[01:55] <screechingcat> jrib: i have terrible download speeds and downloading another 700 mb is going to be terrible. no other solution
[01:55] <screechingcat> ?

[01:58] <carl> mightynigel, what's up ?
[01:58] <screechingcat> jrib: integrated Intel 845. but what does that have to do with a hard disk not being detected
[01:58] <mightynigel> I'm installing Ubuntu now, looks great.  Just thought I would pop in and say hello to everyone
[01:58] <kenthomson> hello

[01:59] <sdac221x_> hi,  is there a way to restard the sound system in edgy ?  Sound seems to disappear sometimes and it requires rebooting for sound to come back.   I have alsamixer installed if that matters.
[01:59] <jrib> screechingcat: heh "no devices detected" happens to be the same error you get when X fails to start
[02:00] <Thialfihar> Hallo.
[02:00] <carl> kenthomson, sorry jajaja
[02:00] <jrib> screechingcat: so searching for it turns up a bunch of useless stuff abotu vid cards :/
[02:00] <screechingcat> jrib:  ahh
[02:00] <mightynigel> Unfortunately a number of applications I use (mostly video editing) require windows.
[02:00] <kenthomson> careo, whats jajaja
[02:00] <screechingcat> jrib: so i should prolly try the Alt CD eh ?
[02:01] <Thialfihar> I'm on Edgy and have troubles burning CDs... the writer is recognized and all, but blank CDs never are.
[02:01] <kenthomson> mightynigel, unfortunately all the applications that people use all over the world (disregarding the 1%linux/mac users) require windows, so we are all on the same boat :)

[02:05] <CrakeHunter> so dapper is more stable... thanks; btw the graphical theme of ubuntu is unmatched

[02:06] <ardchoille> Why did the package manager break some packages?
[02:06] <r_rehashed> to make it a great distro for multimedia work :)
[02:07] <jatt> today the update manager wants to upgrade the linux kernel why? Furthermore it says it cannot install all available updates.
[02:08] <NotWired> I seem to have a couple of component upgrade problems... it says linux-image-686 is upgradeable but when I try to upgrade it I get a message saying it dependes on linux-image-2.6.15-28-686 but is not installable... any ideas?
[02:08] <jrib> screechingcat: well here's where we are at.  I don't really know why your install is failing.  There might be some way to make the livecd detect your drive but I don't know it.  So the alternate cd might be worth a try but it's not a guaranteed solution
[02:08] <jatt> it says: "Some updates require the removal of further software. Use the function "Mark All Upgrades" of the package manager "Synaptic" or run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" in a terminal to update your system completely."
[02:08] <jatt> it looks dangerous to upgrade isn't it?
[02:08] <jatt> I am running dapper
[02:09] <speartim> i have updated 6 systems so from dapper to edgy
[02:09] <speartim> no issues when i do it command line

[02:10] <jatt> mackinac: thanks it seems the problem is not only on edgy but also in dapper.
[02:10] <Thialfihar> Guess it's only an issue with nautilus. eroaster works fine.
[02:10] <jrib> screechingcat: yes, possibly.  You can try the mailing list or this room again later of course.  Someone else probably knows something.  I would just leave the alt cd overnight and try it anyway
[02:10] <jimmie> hmm.. when i login as ROOT i can't find nuthing in the D:
[02:11] <Thialfihar> Very well, just gonna use that, then. :)

[02:13] <jrib> jimmie: don't refer to it as "D:", that's a windowism.  In linux you just mount partitions somewhere.  Writing to ntfs requires some extra work since it is still "experimental"
[02:13] <jrib> !ntfs-3g | jimmie
[02:13] <ubotu> jimmie: 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.

[02:14] <jimmie> ahh
[02:14] <jrib> !fuse | jimmie
[02:14] <ubotu> jimmie: Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse

[02:14] <jimmie> hmm
[02:14] <jatt> From the bug reports I don't get which was the reason for that upgrade... what it was intended to fix?
[02:15] <gOLdenHaWK3D> how can i make my ubuntu i686?
[02:15] <jatt> kernel security bug?
[02:15] <jimmie> well well
[02:15] <jimmie> ill throw it all in the trash can insteed
[02:15] <r_rehashed> gOLdenHaWK3D: you can recompile the kernel, if you wish
[02:15] <jrib> screechingcat: np, hope you figure it out
[02:15] <r_rehashed> with optimisations for p4
[02:15] <jimmie> and take what i got in the other partitions
[02:16] <gOLdenHaWK3D> r_rehashed, ok. no other way? like we get a i386 ubuntu, cant we get a i686 ununtu?
[02:16] <gOLdenHaWK3D> *ubuntu
[02:16] <jimmie> why cant i find the linux partition in winxp?
[02:16] <jrib> !ext3 | jimmie
[02:16] <ubotu> jimmie: 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
[02:17] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jimmie, lolz, cuz there is no linux file system support in Win xp!!!
[02:17] <jimmie> isn't it esier to move the files from the linux partition in win?
[02:17] <jrib> jimmie: yeah, just use fs-driver to see the linux partition in windows
[02:17] <carl> does someone know about this problem ?? : when my laptop complete charge battery 100% and I want to disconnec it, the screens get dark and the system get crash, i can not raise it again.
[02:17] <screechingcat> gOLdenHaWK3D: there is. Its called NTFS 3g. Perfect read/write support. still in BEta though
[02:17] <jimmie> fs-driver? do i install it in win?
[02:18] <jrib> jimmie: yes
[02:18] <gOLdenHaWK3D> screechingcat, he was talking about linux support FROM windoze!!!

[02:19] <jimmie> thanx for the help jrib
[02:20] <lpf> Cheers, I think Ubuntu is the best I have no problems
[02:20] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: use the -generic kernel
[02:20] <gOLdenHaWK3D> lpf, me too!!!
[02:20] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, i installed with generic kernel
[02:21] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: then you are set
[02:21] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, but still it shows i386
[02:21] <lpf> Using Dapper for about 5 Months now, is good
[02:21] <screechingcat> gOLdenHaWK3D: if you are running the -generic kernel you have full support for i686, hyperthreading, dual core and whatever else INtel can dream up
[02:21] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: what does uname -a  say?
[02:21] <mackinac> !generic | gOLdenHaWK3D

[02:22] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, are you sure?
[02:22] <jrib> 2.6.17-10-386
[02:22] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, cuz i did a generic install? (though i am beginning to doubt myself now)
[02:23] <jrib> doesn't generic say 2.6.17-10-generic?
[02:23] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, thats what i was saying!!!
[02:23] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: you have to make sure you choose that at the grub menu
[02:23] <Pici> jrib: yes, it does
[02:23] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, oh! do we have a choice? i mean how many kernels are installed during install time?
[02:24] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, can i change it now?
[02:24] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, without a reinstall?
[02:24] <screechingcat> gOLdenHaWK3D: "The difference in performance between -386 and -686 is insigificant; the measurements are all within a reasonable error range, and within that range, -686 was slower as often as it was faster."
[02:25] <gOLdenHaWK3D> screechingcat, oh! then using i386 is good?
[02:25] <Pici> gOLdenHaWK3D: You can, but anything you compiled from source may not work at all if it needed the kernel headers to compile
[02:25] <screechingcat> gOLdenHaWK3D: just stick with the -generic one. its the best of the lot on edgy
[02:25] <lastman> How can I choose another mediaplayer than totem in firefox? Totem is always be opened by default!
[02:26] <gOLdenHaWK3D> Pici, yes, this i dont want. this is the reason i was asking if there is a precompiled i686 kernel by Canonical?
[02:26] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: at the grub menu when you boot, all of your kernels are listed
[02:26] <r_rehashed> lastman: right-click on the file>properties>open with

[02:26] <mandrill> right. I'm trying to share two NTFS drives installed in my ubuntu machine with my windows machine over a network. when I go through the menus (system->administration->shared folders I'm told that I need to install Samba or NFS to share folders. I untick the NFS box (I don't have any other linux machines) and leave the SMB box ticked and hit the 'install services' button, The dialogue box simply re-appears with the same message. does this mean I'm missin
[02:27] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, i dont have any i686 in my grub menu!!!
[02:27] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: generic
[02:27] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, no generic!!!
[02:27] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: do you have linux-image-generic installed?
[02:27] <ul1024k> hey, I just tried to start with ubuntu but I couldn't, so I tried recovery mode ( or whatever ) and it told me it couldn't find DSDT... anyone can help?
[02:27] <daviey> Is there another command for halt that doesn't require sudo?  Or how can i allow any user to 'halt'
[02:27] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, no
[02:27] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, shall i apt-get it now?
[02:28] <r_rehashed> does this mean that on gOLdenHaWK3D's comp. Ubuntu's installed the 686 version of the kernel?
[02:28] <Math^> hello, ive got a strange problem with mozilla-thunderbird

[02:29] <Math^> i cant read my messages, the program shuts down it self
[02:29] <Pici> gOLdenHaWK3D: What version of Ubuntu are you running, and is this an upgrade or fresh install?
[02:29] <gOLdenHaWK3D> r_rehashed, it cant be!
[02:29] <Math^> when I click on a message it crashes
[02:29] <gOLdenHaWK3D> Pici, i am running a fresh install of Edgy Eft
[02:29] <Pici> hmm
[02:29] <r_rehashed> gOLdenHaWK3D: why?
[02:30] <gOLdenHaWK3D> r_rehashed, cant say! cuz i installed it twice! maybe the 2nd time i selected i386!
[02:30] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: yeah, apt-get it if you want -generic
[02:30] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, thanx

[02:39] <icheyne> type help into the command line

[03:12] <lexko> I tried install the -686-smp kernel and tried to go back to linux-generic, but now I have no kernel registered with the package manager and it refuses to install any kernel package saying that linux-image-generic is required but not installable
[03:12] <jrib> gOLdenHaWK3D: well it's better in the sense that you don't need 100 different kernels now
[03:12] <gOLdenHaWK3D> jrib, whatever they have written there is right, i think
[03:13] <Pici> lexko: Theres an issue currently with the kernel dependencies
[03:13] <lexko> is there any manual work around?
[03:14] <setuid> Can someone tell me why adding a user to /etc/sudoers still ALWAYS prompts for the password when I use "sudo su -"?
[03:14] <pbureau> sudo always asks...as far as I know.. its a security taht is not by-passable (imho)
[03:14] <jrib> setuid: does 'sudo -i' exhibit the same behavior?
[03:15] <Pici> lexko: You may be able to find a downgraded version somewhere, possibly on packages.ubuntu.com
[03:15] <Pici> lexko: Or in your apt cache, if you had previously downloaded it
[03:15] <careo> you can get sudo to work without prompting by editing /etc/sudoers
[03:16] <lexko> Pici: of which package?
[03:16] <setuid> jrib, nope
[03:16] <setuid> jrib, works fine
[03:16] <jrib> setuid: use 'sudo -i'
[03:16] <Pici> lexko: linix-image-generic's dependencies, as it is a metapackage
[03:16] <setuid> jrib, It doesn't work like that
[03:17] <jrib> setuid: 'sudo -i' gets you a root prompt just like 'sudo su -' does
[03:17] <setuid> Not "just like", it doesn't take in the same environment
[03:17] <Lynoure> Pici: I just brutally removed the meta packages and will put them back them the problem is over
[03:17] <jrib> setuid: 'sudo -s' then
[03:17] <Zaggynl> Is there a way in Linux to measure PSU usage? In Watt etc
[03:18] <jrib> setuid: it's usually safer to reset all the env vars in my experience however
[03:18] <Pici> Lynoure: Huh?
[03:19] <LycanNYC-work> !nvidia
[03:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:19] <frogzoo> Zaggynl: acpitool -e
[03:19] <Lynoure> Pici: that the alternative to solving the hanging dependencies (I think you were recommending getting older packages for that)
[03:20] <Lynoure> Pici: not that I would recommend it to anyone who will forget to put them back :)
[03:20] <Zaggynl> frogzoo, :o thanks
[03:20] <setuid> jrib, Thanks
[03:20] <frogzoo> Zaggynl: yw
[03:21] <Pici> Lynoure: Right, he was looking for a manual work around, I assumed that he would remember to put it back (but one knows what heppens when they assume)
[03:21] <incorrect> what is the name of the free version of firefox?
[03:21] <Zaggynl> firefox is free isn't it?!
[03:21] <jrib> incorrect: firefox is free, but do you mean iceweasel?
[03:21] <kestaz> wine and office 2002 any howto ? ;)
[03:22] <Zaggynl> kestaz, open office ;-)
[03:22] <incorrect> jrib, i do!
[03:22] <kestaz> Zaggynl, i need access .. and just access .. for teaching purpos ;)
[03:22] <incorrect> ah its not in edgy
[03:22] <Pici> kestaz: Did you try looking at the Wine appsdb?
[03:23] <jrib> incorrect: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallIceweasel
[03:24] <frogzoo> !appdb | kestaz
[03:24] <ubotu> kestaz: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org

[03:32] <niko_m> how do i install my scanner in ubuntu i have the dapper version
[03:32] <niko_m> i have a plustek optic pro 12
[03:33] <niko_m> i also have a visioneer one
[03:33] <niko_m> but i haven't had luck with the visioneer one with other linux distros
[03:33] <niko_m> just the plustek one
[03:33] <Zaggynl> !scanner
[03:33] <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
[03:33] <niko_m> if its usb shouldn't it just be detected?
[03:35] <XD> yeah that ident2 doc didn't help any
[03:36] <nicholasx> when i go to applications graphics xsane immage scanner it says detecting scanner and nothing happens
[03:36] <nicholasx> but i haven had this scanner work with other linux distros i'm pretty sure with ubuntu too
[03:37] <nicholasx> i checked the list on the site mine is supported
[03:37] <nicholasx> so how do i install the driver
[03:37] <nicholasx> where is the setup for it
[03:37] <MarcoPau> isn't there any monkey's audio plugin for XMMS under ubuntu?
[03:40] <Zaggynl> netsplittage :o

[03:41] <DirkGently> yes indeedy
[03:41] <DirkGently> ty
[03:42] <rasheed> anyone using feisty fawn
[03:42] <DirkGently> until i get my usb dsl modem working with ubuntu, am on xp
[03:42] <DirkGently> been dual booting tho
[03:42] <Lynoure> rasheed: for feisty support, try #ubuntu+1
[03:42] <MarcoPau> isn't there any monkey's audio plugin for XMMS under ubuntu?
[03:42] <Neo1ite> hi does anyone here have a streaming audio set up on their ubuntu server?
[03:43] <Pici> MarcoPau: Monkey?
[03:43] <DirkGently> and found a security flaw in 6.10 ubuntu
[03:43] <DirkGently> by accident
[03:43] <art_> i just add new particion, and dont see it in my cpu - what i need to do?;D
[03:43] <rasheed> great thnx
[03:43] <MarcoPau> Pici: yes, mac, the codec for ape audio files
[03:43] <danilos> Neo1ite: flumotion?
[03:43] <Pici> MarcoPau: Ah
[03:43] <setuid> jrib, btw, your sudo -i and sudo -s do not seem to last long, after about 5 open shells, it starts prompting every time again
[03:43] <Lynoure> DirkGently: Did you report it?
[03:43] <Neo1ite> danilos: how easy is it to set up? i want to stream my MP3s like a radio station...
[03:43] <DirkGently> i dont know how
[03:43] <DirkGently> which is why am in here
[03:44] <jrib> setuid: there's a time limit
[03:44] <MarcoPau> there was an xmms-mac and libmac under debian, but I can't find those in ubuntu, nor medibuntu
[03:44] <Pici> !bugs
[03:44] <ubotu> If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots
[03:44] <DirkGently> i dont wanna put the flaw out....i'd rather report it so it gets fixed
[03:44] <setuid> jrib, I thought I disabled that in /etc/login.defs
[03:44] <danilos> Neo1ite: pretty simple, just install "flumotion" package, and go to http://www.flumotion.net/ for detailed instructions
[03:44] <Pici> DirkGently: See ubotu's message above
[03:44] <Lynoure> DirkGently: That's what launchpad is for.
[03:44] <jrib> setuid: that's unrelated afaik
[03:45] <mariella> hey
[03:45] <nicholasx> is adept the package manager you guys suggest for begginers?
[03:45] <mariella> whats the easiest way to upgrade the kernel in kubuntu
[03:45] <mariella> or, the entire system
[03:45] <frogzoo> DirkGently: launchpad lets you tag security bugs - they're published only to the security team
[03:45] <nicholasx> for ubuntu the stable version?
[03:45] <mariella> :)
[03:45] <elkbuntu> DirkGently, you can mark bugs as 'secret' if they are dangerous
[03:45] <setuid> jrib, where is the timeout adjusted?
[03:45] <nicholasx> 6.06 lts
[03:45] <mariella> 10.6 edgy
[03:45] <jrib> setuid: man sudoers
[03:45] <DirkGently> it allows u to change the root password
[03:45] <frogzoo> DirkGently: but consider sharing them here
[03:45] <DirkGently> without asking for the old root pass
[03:45] <elkbuntu> where secret is another word that i cannot recall
[03:45] <IdleOne> nicholasx: Ubuntu uses Grub and Kubuntu uses Adept
[03:45] <Lynoure> DirkGently: with recovery boot?
[03:45] <nicholasx> how do i install my scanner?
[03:45] <DirkGently> nope
[03:46] <DirkGently> am quite new to linux
[03:46] <setuid>        passwd_timeout
[03:46] <setuid>                    Number of minutes before the sudo password prompt times
[03:46] <setuid>                    out.  The default is 0, set this to 0 for no password time-
[03:46] <setuid>                    out.
[03:46] <nicholasx> i thought grub is a bootloader
[03:46] <Pici> DirkGently: The root password isnt set by default..
[03:46] <DirkGently> i know
[03:46] <Lynoure> DirkGently: or with sudo? :)
[03:46] <DirkGently> its a sudo crap
[03:46] <IdleOne> nicholasx: lmao sorry I meant synaptic for Ubuntu
[03:46] <jrib> setuid: look right above that
[03:46] <Neo1ite> danilos: thanks for that, im trying that now
[03:46] <Pici> setuid: Can you please use something like !pastebin for that next time
[03:46] <nicholasx> adept is a package installer i'm using it now
[03:46] <DirkGently> i dont like sudo
[03:46] <setuid> So the default is 0, no timeout, and it recommends that I set it to 0... but if that's the default, why does it time out?
[03:46] <setuid> ah
[03:46] <nicholasx> i'm using adept now but i'm in gnome
[03:46] <nicholasx> i actually prefer kde but i don't know how to install it
[03:46] <DirkGently> i experimented with different linux a while back
[03:46] <elkbuntu> setuid, either paste or take out the newline symbols next time please
[03:46] <DirkGently> every other one uses su
[03:47] <IdleOne> nicholasx: you can use Adept with Gnome if you like
[03:47] <Lynoure> DirkGently: sounds like it's not a bug. If one gets full sudo, in effect they have root. and yes, can then change the root password
[03:47] <elkbuntu> s/paste/pastebin/
[03:47] <nicholasx> without installing kubuntu instead of ubuntu
[03:47] <DirkGently> its how i feel it should be done
[03:47] <jrib> DirkGently: why?  (tell me in #ubuntu-offtopic)
[03:47] <nicholasx> i prefer the look of kde instead of gnome but gnome is allright
[03:47] <DirkGently> i changed it with a normal user account
[03:47] <zriah> Hi all.  I've setup a tftpd service and for some reason, from remote machines, I can't get any files.  I can get them with the local client.  Remote machines timeout, although I can see the connection in the daemon.log and the text "trying to get file: foo.txt"  Any ideas?  This machine is multihomed, I thought it may have something to do with that.
[03:47] <DirkGently> it didnt ask for any passwrod before it changed
[03:47] <nicholasx> i would prefer just to learn the shell really well and use the gui as little as possible
[03:47] <jrib> DirkGently: are you referring to 'sudo passwd'?
[03:47] <DirkGently> no
[03:47] <DirkGently> in the user accounts menu
[03:47] <nicholasx> but now can someone tell me where i setup my scanner i know its supported i checked
[03:48] <IdleOne> !scanner
[03:48] <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
[03:48] <nicholasx> where in the system menu do you install the drivers for it
[03:48] <DirkGently> i dual booted for a while to learn ubuntu
[03:48] <nicholasx> what does !scanner mean?
[03:48] <_raphael_> what can be wrong when I can`t mount dvd`s?
[03:48] <nicholasx> do i type that in a terminal?
[03:48] <DirkGently> i didnt use it for a while, and forgot my root pass
[03:48] <DirkGently> i looked for a reminder
[03:48] <DirkGently> and managed to change it
[03:48] <nicholasx> i read that web page i did what it said
[03:48] <jrib> DirkGently: you need to enter your user password to get to the "users and groups"
[03:48] <IdleOne> !scanner | nicholasx
[03:48] <nicholasx> it didn't say how to install driver
[03:48] <ubotu> nicholasx: 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
[03:48] <DirkGently> without it asking for the old one
[03:49] <Slike> hi, we're having a problem with an ubuntu server: sda is a RAID5 (data), sdb is a single disk containing Ubuntu (OS files), the grub menu is displayed, but when trying to boot the system we get an error 15: file not found
[03:49] <DirkGently> it let me straight in
[03:49] <setuid> jrib, How do I "HUP" sudoers? I updated the file, but it still prompts and asks
[03:49] <nicholasx> i went to graphics image scanner it says detecting scanner but does nothing
[03:49] <hexion> hello. Trying to compile 2.6.20 kernel (source from feisty) in edgy results in this problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4863/  Anyone can help me?
[03:49] <frogzoo> nicholasx: the ! prompts the bot to post the relevant factoid

[03:49] <nicholasx> i looked on the list on that url and it shows that my scnaner is supported
[03:49] <nicholasx> so it should owrk
[03:49] <jrib> DirkGently: try doing it with an account that is not able to sudo
[03:50] <Neo1ite> danilos: im having problems!
[03:50] <nicholasx> i would have thought i would show up on my desktop or somewhere since it is usb
[03:50] <DirkGently> wow..its hard to keep track of convos when all the text is black
[03:50] <Pici> nicholasx: can you 'use' it with xsane?
[03:50] <Neo1ite> danilos: the manual is aim at fedora not ubuntu
[03:50] <frogzoo> DirkGently: sudo has a timeout on it, so it will let you back in, no password, for 15 mins or so
[03:50] <nicholasx> nothing happens
[03:51] <DirkGently> i never used sudo after i found out u could enable the root account
[03:51] <nicholasx> the screen comes up saying detecting scanner then goes away
[03:51] <DirkGently> i dont like sude
[03:51] <DirkGently> sudo*

[04:01] <pbureau> art_, well if your partition is /dev/partiton1 then goto terminal and type makefs /dev/partition1
[04:02] <pbureau> badmox, well a debian package is pre compiled, ready to install :)
[04:02] <pbureau> beats compiling and looking for libs your missing etc
[04:02] <art_> its /dev/hda3
[04:02] <fluidite> 
[04:02] <pbureau> art then try makefs /dev/hda3 then

[04:05] <daviey> reiki_work, it's foreign to the majority here, correct?
[04:05] <IdleOne> daviey: your language is a foreign language to him probably :P
[04:05] <daviey> IdleOne, doubt it
[04:06] <LjL> see, there's two or three messages in polish by adrian_ -- but the bulk of the spam comes from y'all guys commenting it... ;)
[04:06] <adrian_> is any option to install beryl or compiz for Ati Radeon x550 ??
[04:06] <daviey> IdleOne, Everybody's primary language is English

[04:08] <IdleOne> daviey: very ignorant of you to think that english is the Universal language. btw there are more spanish speaking ppl in the world then english and I wont even get into how many ppl speak chinese. so get off your high horse :P
[04:08] <mindstate> lol
[04:08] <ardchoille> art_: Are you using sudo with that?
[04:09] <mindstate> im having a problem with a broken package, i try to fix it with synaptic but it tells me "Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."
[04:09] <art_> yes
[04:09] <rizhun> hey guys... I've just installed Ubuntu from the Live CD. It's dual boot with windows. The live CD forced me to choose mount points for my Windows partitions... To get rid of these do I remove the entries from fstab, mtab or both?
[04:09] <`MeTaMorfas`> how to set mysql password??
[04:09] <pbureau> art_, sudo mkfs /dev/hda3 sorry mate I made a typo
[04:09] <daviey> IdleOne, come on; i was kidding! take a joke
[04:09] <art_> kk
[04:09] <IdleOne> daviey:  :) so was I
[04:09] <reiki_work> hehehe
[04:09] <pbureau> mindstate, uninstall it ?
[04:09] <GreyGhost> rizhun , does it matter ? i think Ubuntu has a mount manager thingy..
[04:10] <rizhun> GreyGhost: where is the manager?
[04:10] <bulmer> anyone here knows how to troubleshoot an LPD server(on a windows) either using telnet to 515 or lpr commands? I wanted to find out the status of a remote lpd queue
[04:10] <mindstate> pbureau: im not sure if i might need the file its labeled linux-image-generic..
[04:10] <reiki_work> I have my Chatzilla window sized to fit the preview pane of my email. Aside from teh fact teh text is MOVING... looks like I'm doing email
[04:10] <mindstate> pbureau: it seeme'd like somethin i might need
[04:10] <ruzgar> how can I disable a hardware ?
[04:10] <pbureau> ruzgar, remove the module loaded for it ?
[04:10] <GreyGhost> !mount | rizhun
[04:10] <bulmer> ruzgar: if you know its driver, unload it

[04:11] <Fuzzy76> the linux-*-generic dependencies are broken at the moment as far as I can tell
[04:11] <pbureau> art_,  did you run that >?
[04:11] <mindstate> Fuzzy76: so it'd be ok to uninstall it?
[04:11] <Fuzzy76> http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/devel/linux-headers-generic shows the problem
[04:11] <dyrne> Fuzzy76: still?
[04:11] <`MeTaMorfas`> i try to set mysql password, but i get mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[04:11] <`MeTaMorfas`> error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
[04:11] <`MeTaMorfas`> Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!  what is problem?
[04:11] <art_> yes
[04:12] <Fuzzy76> mindstate: I doubt it. I'd rather let it be. It will probably fix itself when the repositories are fixed/updated
[04:12] <Fuzzy76> dyrne: Look at my link. Missing dependencies.
[04:12] <art_> its finish, but still i dont see partition in my cpu
[04:12] <mindstate> Fuzzy76: alright
[04:12] <pbureau> art_, well now mount the partition
[04:12] <art_> how?:)
[04:12] <pbureau> art mount /dev/hda3 /mountdir/mountpoint
[04:13] <ruzgar> how can I see modules and unload them
[04:13] <art_> kk
[04:14] <X-Ception> hmm
[04:14] <X-Ception> LjL, What's +d?
[04:14] <art_> its say that mount point dont exist
[04:14] <mindstate> art_: u have to create the mount folder b4 you mount
[04:14] <mar1> I've trashed my /dev directory - I'm still booted and can access via ssh what's the quickest way back to normal?
[04:14] <pbureau> art_, lol , okay type sudo mkdir /media/harddrive-3
[04:15] <pbureau> art_,  then sudo mount /dev/hda3 /media/harddrive-3

[04:17] <mar1> any takers on the /dev problem?

[04:19] <Yancho> libecw: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6) but 2.3.6-0ubuntu20.4 is to be installed
[04:19] <Yancho> Depends: libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1-12) but 1:4.0.3-1ubuntu5 is to be install
[04:19] <mar1> Is there a package to install to recreate the /dev directory?
[04:19] <Rich_1005> Yancho: did you install build-essential?
[04:20] <pbureau> art_, how we doing mate ?
[04:20] <mar1> no is that it?
[04:20] <Yancho> Rich_1005 not that i remember .. how i can do it pls ?
[04:20] <pbureau> wonders out to get coffee...
[04:20] <Rich_1005> in console type sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:20] <Yancho> kk
[04:21] <Pici> mar1: You completely deleted /dev?
[04:21] <Yancho> build-essential is already the newest version. Rich_1005 have it
[04:21] <mar1> just the contents
[04:21] <jopsen> Anyone knows howto upgrade linux-image-generic ? it's an almost fresh edgy install...
[04:21] <Rich_1005> O
[04:21] <mar1> not sure how I did it but it's empty now
[04:21] <ctr> I am running edge eft
[04:21] <ctr> Does it have some sort of firewall that is running that I can turn off?
[04:21] <Rich_1005> what are you installing to get that error you are getting?
[04:22] <Jils> hey
[04:22] <andreas__> Where can i download cool toolbars, and launchers??
[04:22] <Pici> mar1: ls /dev returns nothing at all?!
[04:22] <Rich_1005> mar1 thats interesting I would like to know how you are going to get /dev back too :)  without reinstalling
[04:22] <bulmer> mar1  look for Makedev  it exist
[04:23] <art_> hmmm
[04:23] <Rich_1005> andreas__: are you running kde or gnome?
[04:23] <Yancho> Rich_1005 this one : http://www.cartoweb.org/cwiki/DebianPackages
[04:23] <jopsen> I can't find the linux-image-2.6.17-11-generic, it's not in repositories... whats wrong?
[04:23] <andreas__> Gnome
[04:23] <mar1> well now it has md0..md1, etc since I reinstalled lvm no MAKEDEV in /dev
[04:23] <andreas__> Rich_1005 I use gnome...
[04:24] <Jils> if i change apt's sources to feisty's sources wil the update manager recommend and propose packages that are/wil be in fiesty?
[04:24] <art_> it say that its mounted

[04:24] <art_> but i dont see it
[04:25] <Rich_1005> andreas__: the only eye candy that i know of that works with gnome are the gdesklets.  Others like kooldock, kiba-dock need kde libraries in order to run
[04:25] <bulmer> mar1 its in /sbin/MAKEDEV
[04:25] <andreas__> Hmm...
[04:25] <Rich_1005> andreas__: did you add that stuff from the site to your sources.list?
[04:25] <jrib> Jils: what do you want to do?  Just changing sources to a development release and upgrading specific packages is likely to leave you with a broken system
[04:25] <Pici> mar1: You'll need to run that as sudo though
[04:25] <andreas__> What site?
[04:25] <pbureau> art_, then ls /dev/harddrive-3 is your new way to address it
[04:25] <reiki_work> I find a lot of the gdesklets appear to be outdated. I installed Conky the other day and once I figured out that I need to configure a file.... it was pretty cool
[04:26] <pbureau> art_, or in gnome, places-home and look for the mounted drive on the left side panel
[04:26] <Rich_1005> sorry andreas__ wrong person
[04:26] <lexko> So, I'm still not able to apt-get linux-generic from -386 because it complains about image dependencies. I have not checked for older packages yet, but I was wondering if manually building a kernel would help? or would that screw me for later Ubuntu upgrades?
[04:26] <AngryElf_> is there any support for quicktime .mov files?
[04:26] <jrib> !mov | AngryElf_

[04:26] <unl3ss> argh
[04:26] <Rich_1005> Yancho: did you add to your sources.list like that site asked you too?
[04:26] <pbureau> AngryElf, get QT10 for linux from... Quicktime.com
[04:27] <Jils> jrib, first of all linux kernel 2.6.20
[04:27] <dyrne> lexko: you can use another kernel it wont mess anything up as far as future upgrades
[04:27] <mar1> bulmer: MAKEDEV is there but do I have to individually create each object?
[04:27] <Yancho> Rich_1005 i added the first 2 lines only
[04:27] <Yancho> and replaced version
[04:27] <mrkun> l
[04:27] <jrib> Jils: you are probably best compiling it if you really need it for some reason
[04:27] <bulmer> mar1: umm you cd to /dev and then you sudo /sbin/MAKEDEV   read the man pages please...man makedev
[04:27] <unl3ss> I am friggin' done with trying to get NTFS write support enabled on my external hard drive, I really need help in just getting it formatted in FAT32
[04:28] <compman>  
[04:28] <art_> nothing new there pbureao
[04:28] <Rich_1005> Yancho: try putting those other two in see what happens when you rebuild
[04:28] <Stormx2> unl3ss: What on earth is the problem with it? ntfs-3g, yo. There are plenty of guides...
[04:28] <dyrne> unl3ss: sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1   or whatever sd?
[04:28] <Yancho> Rich_1005 where should i put them .. the first 2 i added them trough synatic software manager
[04:28] <unl3ss> Stormx2: Nothing works! I've followed them to a T and it's like the drive isn't even mounted
[04:28] <[knap] > just use ext3 and a ext3 driver for windows
[04:29] <lexko> So, I should be able to build a kernel manually and then when the debian linux-generic dependency issues get worked out I should just be able to apt-get the new linux-generic?
[04:29] <mandril2> right my linux system is showing up in Mshome on my windows machine but when I dbl click it it tells me I may not have the required permissions to access it. how do I sort that?
[04:29] <finalbeta> watch out with that ext3 driver, it's not, it's an ext2 driver. so it's a little more dangerous.

[04:30] <dyrne> lexko: yeah i once had slackware running using my kernel on ubuntu parition for a week before i noticed :)
[04:30] <unl3ss> I'll try one last time then I'm coming to you guys
[04:30] <art_> ?
[04:31] <AzMoo> Will I break anything if I change the python symlink to point to python2.5 instead of python2.4 ?
[04:31] <mar1> bulmer: do I need to do anything more than just create the 'generic'?
[04:31] <Yancho> did it Rich_1005
[04:31] <Yancho> shall i do same in preferences?
[04:31] <hbaigu> AzMoo, it will probably, why do you want to change
[04:32] <Rich_1005> ok Yancho now in console do a sudo apt-get update

[04:33] <art_> let me reebot
[04:33] <Rich_1005> Yancho: if you only added those 2 lines in preferences try adding the other 2 as well and then sudo apt-get update
[04:33] <jprs_> ok gracias
[04:33] <pbureau> art_, if the drive is mounted it should show on " df -h  "
[04:33] <AzMoo> hbaigu, Because I'm writing stuff in Python that requires v2.5, and I got sick of having to specify the version I wanted each time ;)
[04:33] <Yancho> have some problems Rich_1005 shall i paste u in pastebin or in prv?
[04:33] <tzanger> good morning, everyone
[04:33] <Rich_1005> you registered we can do it prv
[04:34] <FlightOfStairs> hello
[04:34] <FlightOfStairs> is it possible to get keys like XF86Back and XF86Forward and all that working in firefox (swiftfox)?
[04:34] <tzanger> where would I find the keyserver that the various ubuntu keys are located (i.e. for verifying package .dsc files) ?
[04:34] <hbaigu> AzMoo, put in the first line of the python code file, #!/usr/bin/env python-2.5
[04:34] <bjornolai> I'm running a trial boot system with suse controlling my grub (or that's how I understand it). I don not like suse and want to get rid of it, but am afraid to do so before I know Ubuntu is back in controll of my grub. Can anyone show me to a page explaining the basics of the grub?
[04:34] <tzanger> I've searched on a few of the "normal" keyservers without much luck
[04:34] <hbaigu> AzMoo, and set the excute bit in the file
[04:35] <AzMoo> hbaigu, yeah, but I'm pretty new to python. I'm playing around in the interactive console as well. I'm just going to do it and find out. If something screws up I'll just put it back.
[04:36] <art_> still nothing
[04:36] <jae> Ah, good, the official one :)
[04:37] <jae> Anyone know how I could disable the "sleep mode" key on my Logitech keyboard?
[04:37] <jae> Checked keyboard shortcuts, but came up empty
[04:38] <unl3ss> alright, so ntfs-3g is just not working for me
[04:38] <tsoler> hello
[04:38] <jae> hi
[04:39] <[knap] > is your fstab setup right?
[04:39] <[knap] > are you the owner of the disk?
[04:39] <unl3ss> I have no idea
[04:39] <tsoler> need to configure JAVA_HOME variable anyone to help?
[04:39] <unl3ss> I have no idea
[04:39] <tsoler> where is java_home variable
[04:40] <unl3ss> it's an external hard drive, so it just gets mounted automatically and I don't know how the hell I should be configuring it
[04:40] <dyrne> ive never used ntfs3g but its not as simple as loading the module then mounting normally? like sudo mount -o umask=000 /dev/sda1 /media/usb or something?
[04:40] <tsoler> !java_home
[04:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about java_home - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:41] <unl3ss> how do I identify what device it is (i.e. /dev/sdb or /dev/sdb1)
[04:42] <evan_> hey, is there a shockwave player for ubuntu?
[04:42] <pbureau> unl3ss,  df -h  should list devices
[04:43] <Freedo> hi. someone know's about any good tutorials for theming your'e desktop in edgy (for newbies:P)
[04:43] <dyrne> unl3ss: you can check dmesg after you plug it in i think or. 'ls -t /dev | head', or cat /proc/bus/usb/devices  maybe
[04:44] <unl3ss> alright, well I know what it is now, and I just ran ntfs-config, but still, nothing
[04:44] <unl3ss> I don't have permission to write to it
[04:44] <hitammanis> Good Morning Everyone
[04:44] <unl3ss> which tells me that ntfs write support is still not working
[04:45] <mindstate> i keep getting  "umount: /media/hda1 mount disagrees with the fstab
[04:45] <mindstate> " when i try to unmount my win drive
[04:46] <Jils> can i upgrade debian to ubuntu?
[04:46] <hitammanis> question: What is the linux equivalent to Outlook, or is it possible to view my PST files and Microsoft Mail?
[04:46] <MarcoPau> isn't there any monkey's audio plugin for XMMS under ubuntu?
[04:46] <unl3ss> and why the hell do I not get anything when I run sudo fdisk -l | grep NTFS
[04:47] <tim__b> hey, got some little problem here: using proftpd with confix. i updated to 1.2.10 stable and now some of my user have there home in / instead of /var/www/user. any ideas?
[04:47] <dyrne> unl3ss: try 'sudo umount /dev/sda1; sudo mount -t ntfs-3g -o defaults,local=en_US.uft8 /dev/sda1 /media/usb/'   which is what youd put in ftsab if the config didnt do it for you. i think
[04:47] <mindstate> wow
[04:47] <LycanNYC-work> !nvidia
[04:47] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[04:47] <LycanNYC-work> !ati
[04:47] <mindstate> crazy how i get straight igged for the same question lol
[04:48] <jrib> unl3ss: does fdisk -l  list anything with NTFS?

[04:49] <tapas> but entering smb:/ in konqueror fails to find anything
[04:49] <hitammanis> Lunar_Lamp: Thanks, I just need something to view Microsoft Mail, forget the PST files
[04:49] <LycanNYC-work> PriceChild, :) recommend me beryl stable or beryl-svn ?
[04:49] <LycanNYC-work> for my MX 4000 crap lol
[04:49] <Lunar_Lamp> hitammanis, if you're looking just for a normal mail client - I recommend thunderbird. I love it :-)
[04:49] <stevob2007> has anyone seen that shitty snmg experiment thing, i've been signing the experiment@oxydise.com address up to spam people.
[04:49] <unl3ss> jrib: No, actually, because I tried to rewrite it to FAT32 but that failed to some random whatever
[04:49] <mindstate> i keep getting  "umount: /media/hda1 mount disagrees with the fstab" when i try to unmount my windoze drive ..any HELP?
[04:49] <PriceChild> LycanNYC-work, #ubuntu-effects and stable :)
[04:49] <Lunar_Lamp> hitammanis, do you have a normal pop3 or IMAP account? Or is it something else?
[04:50] <unl3ss> jrib: So it reads W95 FAT32, but all the file and everything are still intact
[04:50] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, does that persist after a reboot? What does your fstab say?
[04:50] <stevob2007> hello people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! youtube, you know that website. the video one, yes experiment@oxydise.com. i reccomend violent insults.
[04:50] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: Yes, and would u like me to pastebin my fstab?
[04:50] <Lunar_Lamp> !ops

[04:51] <Lunar_Lamp> apokryphos, LjL sorted it :-)
[04:51] <Lunar_Lamp> (thanks though!)
[04:51] <hitammanis> Lunar_Lamp: I have both of what you mention, but for intra-office mail we use Microsoft, it was implemented by I started working here
[04:52] <Lunar_Lamp> hitammanis, I'm not quite sure what you mean by "microsoft" there, unless there is a mail protocol that I don't know of called Microsoft.
[04:52] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4868/ :)
[04:52] <hitammanis> Lunar_Lamp: Sorry, Microsoft Mail
[04:52] <patrick_king> does any one know how i couls make a sign up.cgi
[04:53] <patrick_king> which puts the data in to a mysql database
[04:53] <unl3ss> alright, so screw NTFS support, I'm done with that, can anyone help me format this 100GB drive to FAT32? I've already deleted the old partition and created a new one, now I all I do in fdisk is set the id to 'b', right?
[04:53] <Popoi> Hi, I'm trying to change my default windows manager from Konkeror to Dolphin; I use 'sudo update-alternatives --config x-window-manager', and it says: 'There is only 1 program which provides x-window-manager. (/usr/bin/kwin). Nothing to configure'. How can I do it?
[04:54] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, give me a few minutes to think:-)
[04:54] <pbureau> unl3ss, why not format it to linux format ?
[04:54] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp:  ok :)
[04:55] <unl3ss> pbureau: I need to use the drive to transfer large files between Linux and Windows computers
[04:55] <unl3ss> now what the hell does this mean?
[04:55] <unl3ss> WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 22: Invalid argument.
[04:55] <unl3ss> The kernel still uses the old table.
[04:55] <unl3ss> The new table will be used at the next reboot.
[04:55] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, did you try to unmount as root I presume? (sudo umoutn/...)
[04:55] <pbureau> unl3ss, check man mkfs I think its something like mkfs -t fat32 /dev/hdxx
[04:55] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: yes i did
[04:56] <jrib> unl3ss: both windows and linux can read and write to ext3
[04:56] <unl3ss> mkfs.fat32: No such file or directory
[04:56] <unl3ss> do I just use vfat
[04:56] <jrib> unl3ss: why not just use gparted?
[04:57] <f9lewis> Hi, im having a problem with ubuntu. I manually added 1680x1050 resolution in the xorg.conf but when I select it in the resolution menu, it doesnt seem to use the right resolution
[04:57] <unl3ss> jrib: IT WORKS FINALLY. Before I couldn't do a damn thing to format that drive
[04:57] <pbureau> unl3ss,  hey I said "man mkfs" dude...
[04:57] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, could you paste the output of "df -h" please :-) (pastebin)
[04:57] <f9lewis> the text looks wierd and my monitor says "you should use 1680x1050"
[04:57] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: ok
[04:57] <unl3ss> pbureau: I know, but it's not that and the only thing close is vfat
[04:58] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4870/
[04:58] <Freedo> hi. someone know's about any good tutorials for theming your'e desktop in edgy?
[04:58] <pbureau> unl3ss,  well gparted could make selection easier make parttionto format you want
[04:59] <jaakkos> i just installed KDE on my ubuntu edgy (with gnome as default), but when i returned to using gnome it looks like installing KDE did something to my fonts.
[04:59] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, it might be to do with you having two entries for /dev/hda1 in your fstab. Try removing the one without the UUID in it.
[04:59] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, that is - just comment it out.
[04:59] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: ok
[04:59] <pbureau> unl3ss, I have a NAD HDD and I formatted it with windows quite some time ago... so I did not have to reformat under linux, and the portable drive (20gb) I have is strict linux format
[04:59] <pbureau> s/NAD/NAS
[04:59] <jaakkos> they're unpleasantly smooth and firefox's GUI font seems to have changed a little, too, and ubuntu's font settings don't affect these anymore.
[05:00] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: now when i try to umount it says /dev/hda1 not mounted ?
[05:00] <mindstate> lol
[05:00] <unl3ss> pbureau: I figured you'd have to install extra support to get it running under Windows, and I don't really have that capability with the systems I'm using
[05:00] <hola> holaaaa
[05:00] <unl3ss> but it all works now... finally... thanks for everyone's help
[05:00] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, well, ok, try uncommenting the one you commented out, and commenting out the other one! This is amusing (well, probably not for you).
[05:00] <pbureau> unl3ss, no it makes sence to have fqat32 filesystem on network driver (how I set up mine)... but I have another 20gb usb drive only linux.
[05:00] <ardchoille> Since when does win32codecs play wmv9 files?
[05:01] <ardchoille> Is that new?
[05:01] <patrick_king> does any one know how i could make a .cgi script that aperson fills out and it connects to a MySQL DB
[05:01] <Lunar_Lamp> ardchoille, I'm not sure it is - perhaps it doesn't play all wm9 though?
[05:01] <alloy_> Hello everybody, I was gonna install SugarCRM by hand on Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, but found these pages suggesting that it's now part of the ubuntu repo... Does anyone know where??

[05:03] <pbureau> unl3ss, the 20gb is my data drive all important info/files are on it... (and I back them on the network drive as well once a week) that way you can steal my laptop. you get linux and apps :) no personal data... very safe....
[05:03] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, did you mount it as "rw" I seem to remember that was missing in your options.
[05:03] <unl3ss> pbureau: oooouuu... that sounds neat, I'll have to experiment with a few drives I have lying around

[05:03] <gourdin> Lunar_Lamp: thx =)
[05:04] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, I should also warn you that I don't know much about mounting NTFS drives as I don't use windows anymore.
[05:04] <int0x0c> jrib, my bazaar binary is named bar for some reason

[05:05] <int0x0c> jrib, I'm on gentoo (oops)
[05:05] <brainsik> Does anyone know where I can find out why a package went out on edgy-security? There's nothing on the mailing list, no notices, and the package requires a reboot.
[05:06] <int0x0c> jrib, I'm running bazaar 1.4.2
[05:06] <jrib> brainsik: read the package's changelog
[05:06] <brainsik> jrib: it's completely unhelpful "ABI bump to -10."
[05:06] <jrib> int0x0c: it works fine here on ubuntu (I just branched the repo you paste).  Are you using bazaar-ng?
[05:06] <jrib> !info bzr
[05:06] <ubotu> bzr: bazaar-ng, the next-generation distributed version control system. In component main, is optional. Version 0.11-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 990 kB, installed size 5668 kB
[05:07] <int0x0c> jrib, Don't believe so
[05:08] <mindstate> Lunar_Lamp: thanks for the help, works now
[05:08] <int0x0c> jrib, Judging by my version number
[05:08] <Lunar_Lamp> mindstate, great :-)
[05:08] <int0x0c> jrib, Is bazaar-ng in use on launchpad?
[05:08] <jrib> int0x0c: I'm pretty sure it is
[05:09] <int0x0c> jrib, Well, that would do it
[05:09] <jrib> brainsik: well it seems like you've exhausted every approach I can think of except, getting a diff between the source packages or contacting the maintainer
[05:10] <int0x0c> jrib, Yup, that was the problem, using the wrong package

I've heard that there are issues with dual cores in laptops where it ignores speedstep. What kernel would fix that?
[05:26] <RRiChIe> shaffox : explain your problem
[05:26] <Shaffox> it's really strange, have got help from some persons, but it didn't work
[05:26] <pbureau> Sorcerism, well it sees it, I would do a "unbuntu accton usb wireless" search on on google and track forums on the subject
[05:26] <Asl[a] n> pbureau, and thanks for your suggestion- i don't run KDE- i have it installed- cause no matter what anyone says, some KDE apps are indispensable. Gnome/fluxbox are my primary DEs
[05:26] <emubite> What's the latest pre-release kernel in Fesity?  I'm looking to upgrad Edgy's kernel, and I want the latest Ubuntu patches.
[05:26] <Shaffox> install the driver and this, but still didn't get wlan0
[05:26] <Shaffox> (don't know it exactly, cause i'm just new to ubuntu)
[05:26] <RRiChIe> shaffox : which driver ?
[05:27] <Shaffox> linksys
[05:27] <pbureau> emubite, there down right now
[05:27] <Sorcerism> pbureau, I have came across this: http://zd1211.ath.cx/#DriverStatus and i am not sure if it's what i am looking for?
[05:27] <GuerillaTactiks> jrib : Im new, and dont really even know what an "engine" exactly is ... so compiling it seems complicated
[05:27] <RRiChIe> sorry i don't know this driver, i only use ndiswrapper
[05:27] <emubite> The repositories are down?
[05:27] <Shaffox> i have ndiswrapper also
[05:27] <RRiChIe> shaffox : did you try the ubuntu docs?
[05:27] <Shaffox> RRiChIe, yes. but couldn't find any
[05:28] <Sorcerism> RRiChIe, does ndiswrapper use any .inf files?
[05:28] <RRiChIe> yes
[05:28] <pbureau> Shaffox, look at the pvt message I sent you
[05:28] <Sorcerism> So if i have the inf file on the CD, it should work?
[05:28] <f9lewis> Hi, im having a problem with ubuntu. I manually added 1680x1050 resolution in the xorg.conf but when I select it in the resolution menu, it doesnt seem to use the right resolution
[05:29] <f9lewis> the text looks wierd and my monitor says "you should use 1680x1050"
[05:29] <emubite> pbureau, can I not download the latest pre-release kernel at the moment?
[05:29] <RRiChIe> yes ndiswrapper is easy to work
[05:29] <pbureau> emubite, nope
[05:29] <emubite> pbureau, what's the problem?  Are the repos down?
[05:30] <RRiChIe> usr : http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/installation/wifi
[05:30] <pbureau> emubite, do I look like Ubuntu service department ? I dont know... its down.. wait and try later

[05:47] <GeekChick|> getting  sane battery life
[05:47] <yasi8h> hello people, i just installed ubuntu and some other addons to it and it feels really good to be using it. And i would like to know of any nice application(s) that would show me all kinds of statistics of my computer like memory usage, cpu usage, bandwidth usage... on the desktop

[05:47] <f9lewis> Hi, im having a problem with ubuntu. I manually added 1680x1050 resolution in the xorg.conf but when I select it in the resolution menu, it doesnt seem to use the right resolution. Pm me plz.
[05:47] <f9lewis> the text looks wierd and my monitor says "you should use 1680x1050"

[05:47] <GeekChick|> pbureau, how do i see if apmd is loaded, and if it is, disable it. to see if i get the true 5hrs of battery life?
[05:47] <M-Wei|OSX-Mac> yasi8h: you could do with gnome panels...
[05:47] <pbureau> GeekChick|, it may not be loaded... apmd controls speedstep I beleive (check that fact on google)
[05:47] <Bsims> yasi8h: damn I can't think of the name of it but I know what you are talking about
[05:47] <Bsims> yasi8h: gkrelm or something like that
[05:47] <kaur> yaman: keyword is "asus wifi"

[05:49] <GeekChick|> pbureau, how do i see if apmd is loaded, and if it is, disable it. to see if i get the true 5hrs of battery life?
[05:49] <galloglas> they are all ridiculous fixes, or they don't work.

[05:49] <pbureau> GeekChick|,  looking at speedstep and Ubuntu in search is showing kernel patches
[05:49] <Sorcerism> Anyone have any idea what does the last part of "This distribution contains the firmware files for the ZD1211 chip, which is used in WLAN USB sticks. Copy these files to /lib/firmware/zd1211, where it can be loaded by the rewritten zd1211 driver." mean?

[05:50] <neo2> i just typed :
[05:50] <bensode> Where can I enable a program to start when X initializes or GDM loads ... need this to happen before user login
[05:50] <neo2> what you sad except : sudo
[05:50] <GeekChick|> pbureau, the last thing i want to do is run a custom kernel to inhibit upgrades. I'm not that l33t.
[05:50] <Bsims> neo2: it needs the sudo
[05:50] <neo2> but it works

[06:04] <sdac221x_> simple question:  what is the name of the sound server in xubuntu ?
[06:04] <ruzgar> LjL, it said that that module in use
[06:04] <mattcsm_> whats the syntax for terminal code?
[06:04] <ruzgar> Ljl, how can I disable it
[06:04] <LjL> ruzgar: it probably is. do "lsmod | grep snd"
[06:04] <LjL> ruzgar: blacklist it as the bot says
[06:05] <LjL> !modules
[06:05] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add "blacklist modulename" to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type "sudo update-initramfs -u"
[06:05] <usernameu> can anyone help me how to install ubuntu-desktop from cd in lamp server
[06:05] <usernameu> ?
[06:05] <dicky> anyone fancy helping me sort out my wireless connection (Broadcom :/ )
[06:05] <sirius> ?
[06:05] <PriceChild> !lamp | usernameu
[06:05] <ubotu> usernameu: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[06:05] <PriceChild> usernameu, install normally then follow that guide :)
[06:05] <sirius> dicky is that bcmwl 43xx series?
[06:05] <jussi01> dicky: what do you need?
[06:05] <dicky> yup
[06:06] <sirius> dicky did u download ndiswrapper and driver for windows?
[06:06] <Sorcerism> anyone knows how to use the zd1211 driver?
[06:06] <PriceChild> Sorcerism, what is that?
[06:06] <dicky> yeah, downloaded ndiswrapper and installed the bcmwl5 driver
[06:06] <jussi01> hey all, can anyone explain a little clearer these instructions to me?
[06:06] <jussi01> ) Copy all files except "upload_form.html" to your cgi-bin folder (or folder where perl scripts running)
[06:06] <jussi01>    Copy "upload_form.html" into your htdocs folder.
[06:06] <mattcsm_> is anyone bored that would help me
[06:07] <sirius> how ab ndiswrapper -m
[06:07] <Sorcerism> PriceChild, it's a driver for my usb wireless adapter
[06:07] <sirius> and also add bcm43xx in blacklist
[06:07] <Sorcerism> PriceChild, http://zd1211.ath.cx/#DriverStatus
[06:07] <dicky> sirius:  module configuration already contains alias directive
[06:07] <jussi01> where is my cgi-bin folder?
[06:07] <Sorcerism> PriceChild, I just can't see how i should install it =/
[06:07] <sirius> then there's no problem with ndiswrapper no
[06:07] <sirius> *now
[06:08] <ruzgar> Ljl, what is mean blacklist?
[06:08] <mattcsm_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4882/plain/

[06:08] <sirius> dicky try sudo dhclient
[06:08] <ruzgar> that is enogh for me
[06:08] <dicky> and i believe i added bcm43xx to blacklist when following a guide from net
[06:08] <comradeC> does anyone know of a linux gui firewall that allows specific application blocking like windows firewalls?  I see guarddog is, but I want something kde free?
[06:08] <PriceChild> !startup
[06:08] <ubotu> To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup

[06:09] <sirius> i mean do you  see any signal on the icon at the right top side?
[06:09] <PriceChild> jonah1980_2, have you added 3rd party repos?
[06:09] <Sorcerism> PriceChild, any ideas?
[06:09] <PriceChild> sirius, you'll need to tell him how to make that icon, its not by default ;)
[06:09] <PriceChild> Sorcerism, I'm guessing it needs to be compiled as a kernel module...
[06:10] <Sorcerism> PriceChild, how do i do that?
[06:10] <Sorcerism> make install?
[06:10] <jussi01> so anyone know the answer for me?
[06:10] <jonah1980_2> PriceChild, yeah got all my repos on
[06:10] <sirius> dicky do you see any wireless icon on your taskbar?
[06:10] <dicky> nope

[06:10] <mattcsm_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4882/plain/ i need help with wine, this is my problem
[06:11] <PriceChild> Sorcerism, I'm not sure myself... you need to use "module-assitant" to compile it afaik but I'm not sure of specifics myself sorry

[06:14] <juano> why is this happening?
[06:14] <westerfunk> upgrading from ubuntu 6.06 to 6.10 breaks vnc4server, but down-grading vnc4server apparently fixes the problem, didn't for me, but I found a workaround

[06:23] <GeekChick|> Roey, Hi.
[06:23] <nihao> Lunar_Lamp, I am new to xchat. do you suggest that with typing "!edgykernel" in someway then I get more info?
[06:23] <Aysha> This question is going to make me sound like an idiot, but I'm trying to mount my C drive so I can get the last of the files I had on it before Windows decided it had to activate and force me to go Linux. How do I do that? o.O

When I get into KDE, I can do "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid any; sudo dhclient -1 wlan0" and it works perfectly.  What is happening when I log in that ISN'T happening du
[06:26] <m_billybob> neo2: english ;)
[06:26] <Tonren> Sorcerism: That doesn't sound like a problem to me.  It sounds like you just tried to install it twice
[06:27] <Tonren> Sorcerism: What is the output of ndiswrapper -l?
[06:27] <nihao> Roey, :) you can make that with hard effort
[06:27] <neo2> _billybob
[06:27] <neo2> ok
[06:27] <neo__> how to leave the channel?
[06:27] <yasi8h> is ubuntu running a firewall by default?

[06:28] <nihao> Pici, thanks for the link! I will wait.
[06:28] <PriceChild> Tonren, the kernel has a built in firewall called iptables
[06:28] <neo__> thanks, mindstate
[06:28] <yasi8h> what is the firewall?
[06:28] <PriceChild> Tonren, install firestarter to manage it
[06:28] <GeekChick|> nihao, dont use kanji characters here. i dont have the fonts installed. haha
[06:28] <mindstate> no problem

[06:29] <Tonren> PriceChild: That's odd... I'm able to run SSH, FTP and HTTP servers without messing with iptables.  Maybe apt does it for me?
[06:29] <yasi8h> ok so is there any awareness and control like thing for all the apps that r acsessing the internet
[06:29] <Justy-> I get an error with update manager about 2.6.17.11 kernel and tells me that it is broken. Update manager offers me the command: sudo apt-get install -f .

[06:29] <yasi8h> ?
[06:29] <GeekChick|> Roey, i was my fathers only daughter, and he dragged me around on business trips out of necessity. and this is WAY off topic -- lets leave the room before we discuss it.
[06:29] <Aysha> Well, it said it mounted them, but I don't see the drives. o.O
[06:29] <yasi8h> like the other software firewalls?

[06:29] <galloglas> Anyone have any expericen getting VIA 8235 sound to work?
[06:29] <PriceChild> Tonren, automagical configuration goodness :)
[06:30] <Tonren> PriceChild: Does apt do it?
[06:30] <Sorcerism> Tonren, I removed the driver and reinsalled it, now it says "smcwgu  driver present, hardware present"
[06:30] <rbil> GeekChick|: you might look at this page and see whether it can be applied to your situation ... http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/CPUFreq
[06:30] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Hey, cool!  That's a step forward.
[06:30] <GeekChick|> rbil, thank you. i will read it.
[06:30] <Sorcerism> Tonren, now i tried to wlan0 up and it wont work
[06:30] <Tonren> Sorcerism: I'd still like to see your output of `lspci | grep -i bcm`
[06:30] <Tonren> Sorcerism: It's OK, we're not quite done configuring things yet.
[06:30] <Justy-> Pici: so what should i do with this command: sudo apt-get install -f ? if i do nothing will it repair itself?
[06:31] <Tonren> Justy-: Pretty much.
[06:31] <Tonren> Hey all: I have a wireless card.  My /etc/network/interfaces is "auto wlan0 inet dhcp; wireless-ap any; wireless-essid any".

[06:31] <Sorcerism> Tonren, it's a usb adapter
[06:31] <Justy-> Tonren: thanks for the prompt answer thanks
[06:31] <Tonren> Justy-: No prob!
[06:31] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Oh my.  Hmmm...
[06:31] <PriceChild> Tonren, no, simply starting the services opens the ports
[06:31] <Justy-> Pici: thanks to you for your attention on me
[06:31] <Justy-> Bye all!
[06:32] <Tonren> PriceChild: Oh, cool.  Is that because Apache talks to iptables, or does the act of connecting to the port open it up?
[06:32] <Aysha> It looks like i have to mount this sucker manually. I'm running the live disk right now.
[06:32] <stouset> So, totem has been playing every movie with a blue tint since before I can remember. Anyone else experienced this problem?
[06:32] <Tonren> Sorcerism: I'm not sure how that changes things, exactly.  Have you removed bcm43xx?
[06:32] <PriceChild> stouset, you using xgl?
[06:32] <Sorcerism> Tonren, I don't even know what's bcm43xx
[06:32] <stouset> No.
[06:32] <Tonren> stouset: When that happened to me in Windows, it was because I had the wrong codec.
[06:33] <dv5237_> how can i get to the flash settings of my firefox plugin?
[06:33] <Sorcerism> Tonren, I have another PCMCIA wireless card, when running "lspci | grep -i bcm" it outputs "0000:02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03)"
[06:33] <Tonren> Sorcerism: OK, so, "ndiswrapper" is a module, right?  It tries to manage your wireless.  There's another module - installed by default - called "bcm43xx" that ALSO tries to manage your wireless.
[06:33] <EmxBA> hi, I have grub-gfxboot, and I get message "you're about to install 32bit software on 64bit computer", because I have 32bit ubuntu. How can I delete that message?
[06:33] <clearzen> Will ubuntu recognize RCA inputs automatically? Where would I look to see if there is drivers loaded for them?
[06:33] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Before ndiswrapper can successfully configure your card, you need to tell "bcm43xx" to stfu.
[06:33] <skorp> hello , how can I turn off the UTF-8
[06:34] <EmxBA> does anyone have similar problem?
[06:34] <Sorcerism> Tonren,  Heh - how do I kill it?
[06:34] <Tonren> Sorcerism: There are two steps to this.  Right now, bcm43xx is loaded, so you want to unload it with "sudo rmmod bcm43xx".
[06:34] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Then you want to PREVENT it from being loaded on bootup by *blacklisting* it.  You can do this by editing /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and adding the line "blacklist bcm43xx".
[06:35] <sdac221x_> hi can someone help me with a disappearing sound problem after resuming from suspend ?
[06:35] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Once you've completed those two steps, you won't get any more trouble from bcm43xx.
[06:35] <Sorcerism> Tonren, I can't seem to find bcm running at all
[06:35] <Tonren> Aysha: What's up?
[06:36] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Oh, it's not a process you're killing.  It's a module you're removing.  Following the two steps I've described above, and you'll get rid of it.
[06:36] <Sorcerism> Tonren, okay, should i keep the xx in bcm43xx?
[06:36] <Aysha> "Why does it put it under media?"
[06:37] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Yes.  It's called "bcm43xx" because it manages all BroadCoM (BCM) drivers numbered 43xx, where xx is any two numbers (in your case, 06 from 4306).
[06:37] <Tonren> Sorcerism: That's why I wanted to see the output of your LSPCI command - to make sure you had a bcm43xx wireless card.
[06:37] <glam> The Bug Reporting Tool dialog from Bug Buddy won't go away, Close or Save it but a another one show's up.  Help!
[06:38] <Sorcerism> Tonren, when I "sudo rmmod bcm43xx"  it says "ERROR: Module bcm43xx does not exist in /proc/modules
[06:38] <Sorcerism> "
[06:38] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Odd.  Well, it's not loaded, but you should blacklist it anyway.  Add the line "blacklist bcm43xx" to /etc/modprobe.d/modules, unless the line is already there.
[06:38] <dyrne> glam: i think gnome has a task manager or somesuch you can also ps -A and then pkill bubbuddy or whatever name it shows up as
[06:38] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Do you know how to edit files, on the command line, with root privileges?  (It's OK if you don't, it's easy)
[06:39] <dicky> Tonren: I have a wireless problem aswell (Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] ) I've stopp the mod / blacklisted the bcm43xx
[06:39] <soundray> Tonren: it's generally better to create a new file: 'echo bcm43xx | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-bcm43xx'
[06:39] <Tonren> dicky: Whooo!  I have bcm4318 too.
[06:39] <dyrne> glam: or type xkill in a terminal it gives you a nice skull to click on things with
[06:40] <dicky> Tonren: Lets hope you can help me get mine working :)
[06:40] <Tonren> soundray: Oh, I didn't know about that.  Does modprobe.d just read all files in its directory as config files?
[06:40] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Unless you've already done what I mentioned before, you should do what soundray just said.
[06:40] <Caffeine> I was wondering if someone could help me out with a tiny problem I'm having with ubuntu?
[06:40] <Tonren> dicky: OK, what have you done so far?
[06:40] <soundray> Tonren: yes, I think that's how it works
[06:40] <Tonren> !ask | Caffeine
[06:40] <ubotu> Caffeine: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:40] <Tonren> soundray: Nifty.
[06:40] <Sorcerism> Tonren, I can't find blacklist in modprobe.d
[06:40] <[reed] > so, why did ubuntu send out broken linux kernel packages?
[06:41] <Tonren> Sorcerism: It's OK - just do what soundray described above, with the echo and the tee.
[06:41] <[reed] > for 2.6.17-11
[06:41] <soundray> Sorcerism: are you on dapper or edgy?
[06:41] <Caffeine> I accdently dragged my panel to the left of my screen and now I can't move it back to the top of the screen :/
[06:41] <[reed] > I've seen issues on multiple machines with upgrading
[06:41] <Tonren> [reed] : Probably some mismanagement of packages here or there.  It happens.  They'll figure it out in a few days, I'm sure.
[06:41] <Sorcerism> I just did, I am on version 5.10
[06:41] <Tonren> Caffeine: You'll have to reinstall.  :\
[06:41] <Tonren> Caffeine: (kidding)
[06:41] <Sorcerism> Is that dapper or edgy?
[06:41] <cappiz> Someone knows of a UPS supported by ubuntu?
[06:41] <lftl> is there any common reason OO.org would be dog slow on my machine... as in taking 5 seconds to open the file menu?
[06:41] <soundray> Sorcerism: that's breezy.
[06:41] <Tonren> Caffeine: Has the panel, perhaps, become locked?
[06:41] <[reed] > Tonren: k
[06:41] <Sorcerism> soundray, I'm on breezy then.
[06:41] <Caffeine> It's not locked lol
[06:42] <Caffeine> It's just that I have no space to move it.
[06:42] <soundray> Sorcerism: in that case, you have to blacklist it in /etc/hotplug/blacklist I think
[06:42] <Sorcerism> Tonren, I just ran the "echo..." command
[06:42] <Caffeine> I'll try making some space,
[06:42] <dicky> Tonren: I've just blacklisted the bcmxx and i've previously installed the bcmwl5 driver
[06:42] <oneeyedelf1> anyone know of a decent webcam to buy that can be run under linux?
[06:42] <EdgEy> when i plug in an ipod, it's automatically mounted to /media/IPOD
[06:42] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Great.  Okay, let's see... I know there's some more rubbish you're supposed to type into the command line, but I can't remember it off the top of my head.
[06:42] <glam> dyrne: I just tried the xkill on the Bug Buddy, but another one show up again, after it's been kill.   It drive me creasy.
[06:43] <EdgEy> is there any way to change that to /media/ipod for gtkpod:?
[06:43] <Caffeine> I just deleted a lot of things I needed, what is that command to make everything default? I ran it before..
[06:43] <EdgEy> i can manually umount/mount but that's awkward, every time
[06:43] <Sorcerism> soundray, I added bcm43xx at the last line in hotplug/blacklist
[06:43] <Tonren> Sorcerism: dicky: If you two do a search on www.ubuntuforums.org or wiki.ubuntu.com for "ndiswrapper", you will find step-by-step instructions that will help you finish configuring your wireless cards.
[06:43] <cappiz> Someone knows of a UPS supported by ubuntu?
[06:43] <soundray> EdgEy: you'd have to change the filesystem label on the ipod.
[06:44] <Tonren> Sorcerism: dicky: You guys are both about 2/3s through the setup process, so try to pick up on the wiki or any HOW-TOs you find on the forum from where you've left off in here.
[06:44] <soundray> Sorcerism: next time you boot, it shouldn't load anymore then
[06:44] <Tonren> Sorcerism: dicky: In general, you should always thoroughly search the forums and wiki before asking in the chat - this is where you go if the wiki and forum don't help.  :)
[06:44] <EdgEy> soundray, i was thinking that heh
[06:44] <crusoe> Hey, just installed ubuntu 6.0LTS, I plug in my ethernet cable and the internet doesn't work...Yet it works fine on my mac :( Any Ideas?
[06:45] <rbil> cappiz: I use a Belkin UPS. Run Bullodg Plus which comes with the Belkins.
[06:45] <soundray> EdgEy: if it's a fat32, you can change it with mlabel from the mtools package without reformatting
[06:45] <dicky> Tonren: I installed the drivers using ndiswrapper / found an acer tutorial to enable the wireless card, yet It still won't connect
[06:45] <m_billybob> crusoe: have you setup dhcp, or static addressing ?
[06:45] <Tonren> dicky: Ah, ok.  You did all of the crazy "modprobe ndiswrapper" stuff, etc.?
[06:45] <dicky> yup
[06:45] <rbil> cappiz: hooked up to my box through a com port
[06:45] <EdgEy> soundray, i'll try that now. thanks.
[06:46] <crusoe> It auto set it to DHCP
[06:46] <lpf> crusoe: run "sudo pppoeinf" for ethrnet and follow the prompts
[06:47] <crusoe> even though I have a cable internet connection?
[06:47] <cappiz> rbil ok :)
[06:47] <Tonren> dicky: Hmm... okay, does wlan0 show up in ifconfig or iwconfig at all?
[06:47] <lpf> yes
[06:47] <soundray> Tonren: about the problem you described 21 minutes ago... ;)
[06:48] <m_billybob> crusoe: what does ifconfig say ?
[06:48] <soundray> Tonren: could it be that the driver loads after your /etc/network/interfaces file is acted upon?
[06:48] <crusoe> Ipf: It says pppoeinf: cmd not found
[06:48] <glam> I also tried ps -ax | grep buddy, then kill the process but, another Bug Buddy shwo's up again. (I goes, a bug buddy found itself a bug!)
[06:48] <Tonren> soundray: That's an idea.  I have no idea how to go about testing that, though, much less resolving it.
[06:48] <dicky> Tonren: Yup
[06:49] <crusoe> m_billybob: I've got the good ol' 127.0.0.1
[06:49] <gOLdenHaWK3D> why do i get this error "No incoming connections. Maybe you are behind a firewall or a router" while using Deluge!!!
[06:49] <Sorcerism> Tonren, I have another question: i am connected to the router using a cable, howeverm the internet is quuite slow and the connection keeps timing out - what might be the error?
[06:49] <EdgEy> soundray, mlabel seems rather awkward to use
[06:49] <m_billybob> crusoe: whats the interface name ? eth0 ?
[06:49] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Sorry, man - there could be dozens of causes.
[06:49] <EdgEy> it wants ms-dos drive letters ? O_o
[06:49] <crusoe> yep, eth0
[06:49] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Maybe someone else on your router is using up lots of bandwidth?
[06:49] <soundray> Tonren: it should be obvious if you go through /var/log/syslog (plus dmesg if necessary)
[06:49] <m_billybob> crusoe: and you've tried bringing it up manually ?
[06:49] <glam> I can't not even, exit from gnome while this Bug Buddy is arround.
[06:49] <Tonren> dicky: Okay.  Do you have a wireless status light/button on your laptop?
[06:49] <Sorcerism> Tonren, not really, under windows the thing works just fine.
[06:49] <dicky> yeah
[06:50] <crusoe> Not through the terminal, no...I forget the cmd
[06:50] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Bizarre.  I'm honestly not sure about that one, dude.
[06:50] <Tonren> dicky: Is it on now?
[06:50] <dicky> it flashes when i try to connect to an AP, but doesn't seem to stay connected / connect
[06:50] <m_billybob> crusoe: ifup eth0
[06:50] <soundray> EdgEy: what's awkward about it? You only have to use it once, anyway...
[06:50] <Sorcerism> It's like now, It's taking ages to load either wiki.ubuntu or ubuntuforums =/
[06:50] <shatrat> !ipv6|sorcerism
[06:50] <ubotu> sorcerism: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[06:50] <crusoe> ok, brb, gonna try that :)
[06:50] <EdgEy> soundray, i want to change the label of /dev/sda2
[06:50] <EdgEy> somehow mlabel wants an ms-dos drive label like C: D:etc
[06:51] <Tonren> Sorcerism: Does it take ages to CONNECT or ages to LOAD once it's connected?
[06:51] <EdgEy> the man pages aren't really explanatory either
[06:51] <Sorcerism> ages to load
[06:51] <soundray> EdgEy: okay, I see what you mean. Give me a minute
[06:51] <Tonren> dicky: Okay, try this: "sudo iwconfig wlan0 ap any; sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid any;" unless you have an encrypted AP, which complicates things
[06:51] <Roey> (er, I forgot, where do I set system startup to runlevel 3 instead of 2?)
[06:52] <cesarb> EdgEy: you can use :: as the drive and then it'll look at some other parameter for the device
[06:52] <Tonren> soundray: ndiswrapper is a *kernel* module, so I would see it being loaded in the parts of the log that say "kernel" right?
[06:52] <cesarb> EdgEy: I think it's -i, look at man mtools
[06:53] <Tonren> WTF?  I got kicked out.
[06:53] <mindstate> what should i use to convert avi to mpg.. i tried ffmpeg , but the output's audio is offsync with the video
[06:54] <Tonren> dicky: Say whatever you just said again, I probably missed it
[06:54] <LjL> Tonren: join #ubuntu-read-topic and read it please
[06:54] <dicky> Tonren: Error for wireless request "Set AP Address" (8B14) :  SET failed on device wlan0 ; No such device.
[06:54] <Tonren> LjL: Whoa... that's intense.
[06:54] <GeekChick|> ...
[06:55] <mindstate> anyone :)
[06:55] <cappiz> i need on with a GUI :P
[06:55] <cappiz> UPS with GUI interface
[06:56] <rbil> cappiz: the Belkin has a GUI interface
[06:56] <marmer__> hy
[06:56] <rbil> cappiz: it's called Bulldog Plus
[06:56] <cappiz> ah ok :)
[06:57] <GeekChick|> ...
[06:57] <GeekChick|> woohoo. the tubes are unclogged
[06:57] <LjL> Tonren: thank you, please make sure to join the channel mentioned and ask for a test there
[06:57] <LjL> Tonren: yes
[06:58] <soundray> EdgEy: sorry, I guess mlabel won't help in this case
[06:58] <soundray> Tonren: sorry, I don't know how ndiswrapper-related messages are logged
[06:59] <Roey> is there an /etc/inittab in Ubuntu?  I wish to change my startup runlevel to a text login instead of a graphical one.
[06:59] <soundray> !upstart | Roey
[06:59] <ubotu> Roey: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[06:59] <Roey> interesting.
[06:59] <Roey> ok.
[06:59] <EdgEy> soundray i figured it out using google i think
[06:59] <Tonren> soundray: Now that I've examined syslog and daemon.log closer, it appears that dhclient wasn't even trying to run during boot.
[06:59] <Roey> ubotu:  so it starts up faster eh?
[06:59] <Pici> Roey: ubotu is a bot
[06:59] <EdgEy> mtools seems pretty awkward though, what is its actual main use? o_o
[06:59] <Roey> soundray:  does Upstart parallelize the boot process?
[06:59] <Roey> Pici:  yeah now I know :)
[06:59] <Pici> :)
[06:59] <Roey> thanks :)
[07:00] <EdgEy> oh excellent
[07:00] <Tonren> soundray: Which is weird, because I could have SWORN I saw a long string of dhclient attempts in the logs before.
[07:00] <EdgEy> i can't make the label lowercase
[07:00] <EdgEy> .. heh
[07:00] <jason0_> Trying to setup torrentflux w/ lighttpd but when I try to access the server it tries to download a phtml file, any ideas?
[07:00] <cesarb> EdgEy: using floppies
[07:00] <cesarb> EdgEy: FAT labels cannot be lowercase, they are leftovers from DOS (which is case-insensitive)
[07:01] <Roey> hmm
[07:01] <Roey> btw
[07:01] <EdgEy> i guess i'll have to figure out how to change where gtkpod looks for the ipod then
[07:01] <EdgEy> :)
[07:01] <Tonren> soundray: Is there a way to access logs generated by the boot processes?  I mean, is there a file somewhere that contains "Configuring network interfaces..." and whatever it was trying to do?
[07:01] <Roey> why is it that hitting shift and "," does not produce a double-quote character?  I have my keyboard set to intl-english
[07:02] <glam> my panel is gone! Help.
[07:02] <rbil> EdgEy: if that's impossible, then consider using a softlink
[07:02] <Jookya> can anyone help me with formatting a partition real quick?
[07:02] <EdgEy> rbil.. i can't believe i didn't think of that
[07:02] <EdgEy> ln -s /media/IPOD /media/ipod right ?
[07:02] <mindstate> what should i use to convert avi to mpg.. i tried ffmpeg , but the output's audio is offsync with the video.
[07:02] <rbil> EdgEy: not sure what you're trying to accomplish, but try that :-)
[07:02] <Pici> mindstate: Try mencoder
[07:02] <Jookya> anyone ? :)
[07:03] <EdgEy> rbil i have IPOD and gtkpod looks for ipod
[07:03] <glam> use mkfs
[07:03] <mindstate> Pici: ill give it a whirl.. thanks
[07:03] <EdgEy> does the source or destination come first using ln ?
[07:03] <Tonren> Jookya: gparted isn't working on for you?
[07:03] <Jookya> never used gparted
[07:03] <Tonren> EdgEy: Souce
[07:03] <Tonren> Jookya: It's real easy - just use gparted.
[07:03] <Jookya> im very new to linux
[07:03] <dyrne> glam: gnomepanel is missing?
[07:03] <Tonren> EdgEy: *Source.  Make sure that you write the source either *relative to teh destination* or starting with /
[07:03] <Jookya> im using kubuntu
[07:03] <glam> yes, the gnome-panel is missing, both at the top and the buttom of the screen.
[07:04] <Tonren> Jookya: Hmm, either use gparted anyway, or go to #kubuntu or #kde and ask about gparted alternatives.  It make sthings MUCH MUCH MUCH easier.
[07:04] <Jookya> i shoulda installed ubuntu instead
[07:04] <gOLdenHaWK3D> why do i get this error "No incoming connections. Maybe you are behind a firewall or a router" while using Deluge!!!
[07:04] <Jookya> i don't like the kde desktop
[07:04] <gOLdenHaWK3D> why do i get this error "No incoming connections. Maybe you are behind a firewall or a router" while using Deluge!!!
[07:04] <Tonren> EdgEy: For example, if you're in /foo/bar and you type "ln -s source /foo/blah/destination", then /foo/blah/destination will be trying to link itself to /foo/blah/source, NOT /foo/bar/source.
[07:05] <glam> I switch to a console then switched back to gnome, and the panel is missing.
[07:05] <Tonren> Jookya: It only takes 10 minutes to install.  Why not just intall ubuntu?
[07:05] <Tonren> Jookya: Alternately, you can do "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" to get Gnome.
[07:05] <EdgEy> Tonren, seems logical, thanks :)
[07:05] <rickest> anyone know what to do about:  The following packages have unmet dependencies:

[07:09] <gOLdenHaWK3D> why do i get this error "No incoming connections. Maybe you are behind a firewall or a router" while using Deluge!!!
[07:09] <Tonren> Hey all: I have a wireless card.  My /etc/network/interfaces is "auto wlan0 inet dhcp; wireless-ap any; wireless-essid any".  When I boot up, it hangs on "Configuring network interfaces".  I can check daemon.log and see that dhclient unsuccessfuly tries to connect during boot.  When I get into KDE, I can do "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid any; sudo dhclient -1 wlan0" and it works perfectly.  What is happening when I log in that ISN'T happening du
[07:10] <Tonren> gOLdenHaWK3D: Are you in fact behind a router?
[07:10] <mindstate> why do i get a "Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device"  when trying to load any type of video file into MPlayer
[07:12] <daviey> Hi, anybody here using 'tor'?
[07:12] <skar> hi, is there a command which shows the common parts of a file, as against diff which shows the difference ?
[07:12] <skar> command parts between 2 files i mena
[07:12] <skar> *mea
[07:13] <skar> *mean
[07:13] <apokryphos> skar: diff :)
[07:13] <shatrat> daviey, I could tell you if Im using tor, but then I would have to kill you.
[07:13] <Tonren> shatrat: LOL
[07:13] <rbil> mindstate: it's possible that the video codecs need to be installed before installing mplayer? Just a guess. VLC seems to work well, btw.
[07:13] <apokryphos> skar: check the man page for the options you would require.
[07:13] <skar> apokryphos: ok diff itself does that, let me try then
[07:13] <glam> how do I exit gnome buy using a shell command?
[07:13] <daviey> shatrat, i have a bind error on startup
[07:13] <daviey> shatrat, do you use it?
[07:14] <mindstate> rbil: ah ok ill try that
[07:14] <daviey> glam, /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:14] <shatrat> daviey, ok the truth is, I do not in fact use TOR.

[07:16] <ferret_0567> Does anybody know how to compile the FahMon software successfully on Ubuntu 6.10 or other FAH Monitoring software I can use on Ubuntu 6.10 that will work?
[07:17] <skar> ferret_0567 FAH?
[07:17] <quintin> mindstate: Go to mplayerhq.hu and get codecs package
[07:17] <ferret_0567> Folding@Home
[07:17] <ferret_0567> It's great
[07:17] <ferret_0567> Read up on it
[07:18] <ferret_0567> It'll only take a minute
[07:18] <mindstate> quintin: thanks dude :)
[07:18] <thekidrio> yeah its cool stuff
[07:18] <quintin> ferret_0567: what error are you getting?
[07:18] <skar> ferret_0567 ok, it does some distributed computing from what i've heard
[07:18] <thekidrio> very worthy project folding at home
[07:19] <quintin> mindstate: yw.  put it in /usr/local/lib/win32/
[07:20] <skar> ferret_0567 hmm seems they're solving some worthy problems :) maybe try it this weekend
[07:20] <mzanfardino> I've recently installed the kubuntu-desktop package and find I like KDE very much.  However, it appears that I somehow managed to make one of my icons on the main menu larger than the rest.  Any idea how to return the icon to the original size?  This is in KDE...
[07:20] <quintin> mzanfardino: /join #kde
[07:21] <apokryphos> !kubuntu
[07:21] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[07:21] <L4J> ok hey
[07:21] <L4J> I am in the live version, it is working
[07:21] <L4J> but for some reason.. It gets stuck on step 5 or 6 when I try to install it
[07:21] <ferret_0567> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4896/
[07:21] <glam> How do I reinstall gnome-panel?
[07:21] <apokryphos> glam: sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-panel
[07:21] <L4J> :'(
[07:22] <glam> thks.
[07:22] <L4J> Does it usually get stuck right there?
[07:22] <quintin> L4J: What 'step' is that, exactly?
[07:22] <daviey> Ahhhhh, for some reason i have lost my localhost/loopback interface!!!
[07:22] <daviey> how can i get it back?
[07:22] <L4J> The step where it is repartitioning the hardrive
[07:22] <quintin> daviey: /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:23] <L4J> and is it suppose to be slow when im on mozilla?
[07:23] <mandrill> right I've got my two ntfs SATA drives mounted and readable by ubuntu. Samba is running and I can see the ubuntu machine in mshome on my windows machine. I cant access any of the shares on my ubuntu machine from my windows machine though. what do I need to do to be able to have full access to my shared drives on my windows machine
[07:23] <quintin> L4J: I'd test its health via SMART first
[07:23] <L4J> lyk when im surfin webpages
[07:23] <ynef> daviey: running the command quintin posted will possibly disconnect you from this chat, since the network will be restarted
[07:23] <cpk1> ferret_0567: my first question would be why is the linux client a .exe?
[07:23] <boni_> /part/win 2
[07:24] <ferret_0567> I dunno
[07:24] <daviey> yeah thought so, seems vmplayer borked my networking brb
[07:24] <quintin> ynef: unless custom network setup has been done, I don't think it would d/c
[07:24] <L4J> um..where is smart?
[07:24] <ynef> L4J: how much slower would you say that mozilla is?
[07:24] <erUSUL> !upgradeproblem
[07:24] <ubotu> upgradeproblem is There is a problem with the latest linux-image-generic package (is broken as for now) it is a known bug that is being sorted out here: https://launchpad.net/soyuz/+bug/83976
[07:24] <LycoLoco> Hey guys, does Anyone have any idea why my system won't boot after configuring my mouse? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2128110&postcount=399 is my problem
[07:24] <quintin> mandrill: What samba shares have you created?
[07:24] <art_> hey
[07:24] <cpk1> ferret_0567: ah i see its a sh
[07:24] <quintin> Why in the hell is it still available in updates then?
[07:24] <L4J> well not the internet speed.. just the screen kinda lags when i scroll
[07:24] <ferret_0567> The FAH client itself is: FAH504-Linux.exe
[07:24] <art_> when i want to make new particion from free space what shal i chose?
[07:24] <ferret_0567> ...and yet...it's not a Windows app
[07:24] <ynef> L4J: ah, yeah, mozilla is pretty laggy when it comes to scrolling, in my experience
[07:24] <mandrill> quintin: I've shared the folders that the two sata drives are mounted to.
[07:25] <mandrill> and nothing else
[07:25] <L4J> well gaim is laggy too
[07:25] <quintin> L4J: It's a standard, not a program.  You need 'smartmontools'.  You can put install it from the livecd unless you have a stupid small amount of RAM
[07:25] <rbil> mandrill: you need to create users on the Linux side, see this article ... http://www.samba.netfirms.com/addusers.htm
[07:25] <quintin> L4J: Open a terminal, and do 'apt-get install smartmontools'.  When it's finished, try a 'smartctl -H /dev/sda'
[07:25] <ferret_0567> That FahMon thing was released on 26th November 2006, atleast the Windows binary was
[07:25] <quintin> mandrill: Shared how?  Do you have passwords for SMB on the linux box?
[07:26] <ferret_0567> I wish I knew of another Linux FAH monitor
[07:26] <quintin> L4J: are you on the livecd?  everything is going to be slow unless you have a very new computer
[07:26] <L4J> oh ok
[07:26] <L4J> so will it not lag after i have it installed"?
[07:27] <quintin> L4J: uh, seek and read times are like a bajillion times slower on CD than HDD.  it will be noticeably faster, yes.
[07:27] <cpk1> ferret_0567: so you were having trouble running the fah app?
[07:27] <L4J> oh ok
[07:27] <ynef> L4J: aha, you're using the live cd? well then, not only will everything lag more, but you will most likely not have the correct graphics drivers installed, don't worry too much about it :-)
[07:27] <L4J> oh ok
[07:27] <daviey> I'm using WPA2 wireless networking and i have no loopback!  I've restarted networking and have auto lo..... in /etc/interfaces

[07:28] <morrolan> Hi, is there a way to ask Ubuntu to re-read /etc/fstab without rebooting?
[07:28] <art_> some1 can help me whit makening new particion?
[07:28] <ferret_0567> That output was for the FahMon app
[07:28] <ynef> morrolan: mount -a
[07:28] <ferret_0567> FAH runs great
[07:28] <ynef> morrolan: .... sudo mount -a, of course

[07:29] <mandrill> rbil: I get the idea of that page but the terminal commands don't work can I use the gui user tools to do it?
[07:30] <ferret_0567> Ubuntu's kernel is so weird, I only have a Intel P4-M and yet FAH says: [06:47:37]  Extra 3DNow boost OK.
[07:30] <rbil> mandrill: because they are using root, you need to preface commands with sudo
[07:30] <ferret_0567> On FC6 FAH would say "Extra SSE2 boost OK."
[07:30] <L4J> okay
[07:30] <LycoLoco> Could someone help me? my system won't boot!
[07:30] <mandrill> quintin: I right clicked on the folder and selected 'share'. I take it I just set up a user on the linux box for the win machine and set the same user up on the win machine and that should do it?
[07:30] <ferret_0567> I get a lower FAH benchmark result too
[07:30] <quintin> ferret_0567: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:30] <L4J> how do i do that dual boot?
[07:31] <rbil> mandrill: I'm not aware of a gui tool for doing smbpasswd
[07:31] <ynef> L4J: what do you need to know?
[07:31] <L4J> i clicked install on the desktop
[07:31] <mandrill> rbil: I did that
[07:31] <quintin> mandrill: Same username and password.  Also, nt encrypts passwords differently than unix.  So you need to do 'smbpasswd -a <user>' for each user, and enter the password.
[07:31] <ynef> L4J: install windows, install ubuntu, have grub detect windows and it will set up the dual boot for you
[07:31] <morrolan> sudo cryptsetup remove benedict
[07:31] <Zaggynl> Do I need ATM for my laptop? Or how do I find out? (I'm compiling my kernel)
[07:32] <ynef> L4J: yeah -- and what happened? did it say that it can't do dual boot, or what are you asking?
[07:32] <L4J> I dont know.. it is stuck on step 5

[07:32] <ynef> L4J: what's step 5?
[07:33] <ferret_0567> Or maybe it's FAH that's the problem...but FAH on FC6 did say something different
[07:33] <L4J> ynef
[07:33] <mandrill> rlib:the smbpassword I can do through terminal but the flags are all different for setting up the user in the first place. I presume I can do that bit in the user gui from the admin menu.
[07:33] <L4J> can i send u a screenshot?
[07:33] <glam> How do one reconfigure gnome-panel?
[07:33] <ynef> L4J: upload it somewhere and everyone can look at it

[07:34] <L4J> ok
[07:34] <L4J> h/o
[07:34] <LycoLoco> could someone help me figure uot whats wrong with my system? it won't boot. I realize it's a difficult question, but I just would like for someone to acknolwedge taht I'm here asking a question
[07:34] <rbil> mandrill: ok, if you say so. do it in the gui for a new linux user and use smbpasswd for a samba user
[07:34] <L4J> i cant stand this orange layout.. orange really isnt my color lol
[07:34] <ferret_0567> Just change it
[07:34] <L4J> can i do that with livecd?

[07:38] <ynef> L4J: yeah, what seems to be the problem with it?
[07:38] <comradeC> morrolan, is there anyway to get a backup of your rules and reload them?
[07:38] <morrolan> comradeC - even though I trust my router, I use firestarter as an extra
[07:38] <L4J> Is it suppose to stay on that step for a while?

[07:38] <quintin> comradeC: I do
[07:38] <LycoLoco> quintin: any ideas?
[07:38] <ynef> L4J: I suppose so -- it takes some time to resize the harddrive's partitions
[07:38] <ferret_0567> Plus, with Ubuntu 6.10's NVIDIA module, "Wolfstein: Enemy Territory"'s graphics are all messed up.
[07:38] <L4J> oh okay
[07:38] <comradeC> morrolan, already was there can't find anything which is very suprising
[07:39] <morrolan> hmmm
[07:39] <LycoLoco> ferret_0567: have you tried installnig the newest nvidia drivers?
[07:39] <quintin> mandrill: smbpasswd, genius.
[07:39] <comradeC> quintin, is there anyway to backup a conifg file or something with your rule set? so it can be reloaded?
[07:39] <ferret_0567> No

[07:42] <morrolan> glam, i've never tried backing it up, I only use it to help blacklist inbound for a little extra security, I don't really have many rules setup.

[07:44] <quintin> LycoLoco: What did you change that started this?
[07:44] <LycoLoco> erUSUL: I really don't want to reinstall my whole system, as I've done a lot to set it up, and I can't get to antyhing. no termina, no nothing
[07:45] <quintin> erUSUL: He did not ask about upgrading ...
[07:46] <LycoLoco> quintin: I did exactly what it says in part one of that tutorial, then when everything went to crap, I booted into Windows and since I have the ext2 driver, I changed my xorg.conf back and deleted the udev file that I created
[07:46] <erUSUL> LycoLoco: ups it was an error
[07:46] <quintin> LycoLoco: How did you trade a crt for an lcd? :p  was the crt bigger?  You might fiddle with /etc/hdparm.conf and then try rebooting

[07:46] <Drel3> anybody free for my question
[07:46] <LycoLoco> quintin: her parents are selling their mountain house (along with the comptuer inside it), so we traded his monitor for any working monitor, just so that there would be one there
[07:47] <LycoLoco> quintin: do you think something could have gotten mucked up in hdparam.conf even though I didn't change anything?
[07:48] <crusoe_> Thanks guys!
[07:48] <mindstate> quintin: im still getting the same error :( lol
[07:49] <quintin> LycoLoco: no idea... but it hangs when you get to the hard drive stuff.  You might also try removing as many things as you can from the case, and trying again.. what tutorial ?
[07:49] <LycoLoco> quintin: the only line that isn't commented out in my hdparm.conf is "quiet"
[07:49] <quintin> mindstate: with samba?  it's not hard, kid :P
[07:49] <eisma> how come when i drag my tar.gz theme file onto the file manager, it says that it is invalid file format?
[07:49] <mindstate> mindstate: lol im trying to get mplayer to work what do you mean samba?
[07:49] <LycoLoco> quintin: the tutorial I posted in: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1280886&postcount=1
[07:49] <mrotru> hola
[07:49] <quintin> mindstate: oh.  what is the error, what is the file
[07:50] <mrotru> hola
[07:50] <mindstate> quintin: the file is a .avi file , the error is "Error opening/initializing the selected video_out(-vo)device.
[07:50] <slicslak> what'
[07:50] <slicslak> what's the default apache web root?
[07:51] <quintin> mindstate: well the computer is *telling* you what the problem is
[07:51] <quintin> slicslak: /var/www
[07:51] <quintin> mindstate: What vo device are you using?
[07:51] <eisma> how come when i drag my tar.gz theme file onto the file manager, it says that it is invalid file format?
[07:51] <quintin> eisma: cause it is
[07:51] <mindstate> quintin: dude i have no idea what would that be? like my gpu?
[07:51] <slicslak> quintin, thx
[07:52] <eisma> quintin know how i can fix it?
[07:52] <quintin> mindstate: *sigh*.  right click mplayer > preferences > video
[07:52] <quintin> mindstate: it's just how mplayer renders the output.   you probably want 'x11v' or whatever.  let me see what mine is
[07:52] <eisma> anyone know how to isntall themes of tar.gz files onto the theme manager?
[07:52] <quintin> eisma: dunno.  you can email me the file if you want and I can check it.
[07:53] <LycoLoco> hey quintin - what exactly does udev/rules.d do?
[07:53] <mindstate> quintin: yeah i messed with those video preferences
[07:53] <LycoLoco> if I understand that, maybe I can track down the problem  on my own
[07:53] <mindstate> quintin: but i still get the same result
[07:53] <quintin> mindstate: set video out to 'xv'
[07:53] <Drel3> anybody free for  question
[07:54] <m_billybob> quintin: have any idea why a ssh session, when logging in, would pause for many seconds while asking for a passwd (static IP interface) ?
[07:54] <mindstate> quintin: lol that worked :-/
[07:54] <Nitro> Hi, is it possible to upgrade to Edgy without any loss of files or settings?
[07:54] <m_billybob> quintin: when i use dhcp, it doesnt have this long pause.
[07:54] <mindstate> thank you
[07:54] <quintin> m_billybob: That's normal.  Try 'ssh -vvv myhost'.  There's quite a lot going on.  First it checks for keys before offering a password.
[07:55] <quintin> Nitro: yes
[07:55] <quintin> Nitro: you might lose your wallpaper though
[07:55] <GionnyBoss> I am going to install tonight Ubuntu on a friend's computer which doesn't have an internet connection. Where can I download some packages that I can install on his computer? I have to download them here now
[07:55] <m_billybob> quintin: what can i do to speed that up ? (im using puTTY btw)
[07:55] <ferret_0567> Well...to remove "nvidia-kernel-common" I had to remove linux-restricted-modules-<something> which I will need for a new wireless card coming in the mail
[07:56] <j1p> Is there a reason my VLC on edgy won't play bin files?
[07:56] <Nitro> quintin: How do I do it? Burn the 6.10 .iso?
[07:56] <m_billybob> Nitro: windows ?
[07:56] <quintin> m_billybob: I'd think that that is probably in your head.. you get over it, I guess.  That's what I did.  Sometimes it just takes a few moments to get a pw prompt.. don't know how to speed it up, except for logging in with a key instead of a password.
[07:56] <FlightOfStairs> j1p: a workaround: rename it to .mpg
[07:56] <m_billybob> quintin: naw, it can take up to around a minute at times
[07:57] <ferret_0567> Is there a newer NVIDIA module package somewhere? I actually saw one but it was a beta and might not support my NVIDIA GeForce 4 440 Go.
[07:57] <FlightOfStairs> you might ned to select audio track 2
[07:57] <m_billybob> quintin: with dhcp, this pause is non existant
[07:57] <quintin> Nitro: Change all 'dapper' to 'edgy' in /etc/apt/sources.list, then do aptitude update, aptitude dist-upgrade, aptitude dist-upgrade
[07:57] <j1p> FlightOfStairs, yea, i found that on google, but its annoying
[07:57] <j1p> FlightOfStairs, shouldn't vlc "just work" on bin files?
[07:57] <FlightOfStairs> it should
[07:57] <mwalling> how do i get fortune to run during my login?
[07:57] <FlightOfStairs> it did in fdora
[07:57] <FlightOfStairs> *fedora
[07:57] <ferret_0567> I have not installed any new NVIDIA module nor removed the Ubuntu one
[07:57] <Nitro> quintin: that simpe?
[07:57] <j1p> it always has for me before, but not on edgy
[07:57] <quintin> m_billybob: Oh really.  that is definitely way to long.  Try ssh -vvv and see what you get.  What kind of network is this ? how is routing and resolving done?
[07:57] <Nitro> *simple
[07:57] <quintin> Nitro: yes.
[07:58] <GionnyBoss> can anybody tell me where can I find all Ubuntu packages on the web to download, please?
[07:58] <m_billybob> quintin: GbE p2p (direct cable from computer to computer, metric on thos interfaces is 20, internet side metric is 10)
[07:59] <quintin> m_billybob: paste your ifconfig output on both machines, please
[07:59] <erUSUL> GionnyBoss: all of them? packages.ubuntu.com
[07:59] <m_billybob> quintin: well that edgy machine is only one interface, going through a windows box, that has two, eth0 on edgy has a mtu of 9000
[08:00] <mandrill> rbil: that didn't work. the message I'm getting on the widnows machine is 'parameter is incorrect'
[08:00] <quintin> m_billybob: while you're at it, paste output of 'route' too
[08:00] <Latty> Is there anything that needs to be done to get the most out of a Core 2 Duo with Ubuntu? Is it worth using the 64bit version?
[08:00] <m_billybob> quintin: ok, are you goign to be around later perhaps ? I have some stuff to do atm, that will take me a little bit to get done , and i just shut the edgy box down
[08:01] <quintin> m_billybob: maybe
[08:01] <m_billybob> quintin: i was kind of hoping for a quick fix, or somethign obvious that i missed, but this is probably goign to turn into a mini project
[08:01] <quintin> Latty: use at leats the 686 kernel.  64bit is going to be headaches in many cases
[08:02] <jimmySleep> hallo?
[08:02] <Latty> OK, thanks, just getting a new PC (or at least, the parts for) soon, so I'm just checking up :P
[08:02] <Davegoodson> hi, can anyone help? some of my apps seem to think that i'm not connected to a network for some reason. Gaim, network manager, and the gnome-main-menu thinks it too...
[08:03] <eisma> how do i change the font color of the text in menus?
[08:03] <Shane-S> if I wanted to find every file with an occurance of "domain.com" would I used grep domain.com | more? I am not that familiar with the command line grep
[08:03] <mcdonaldswes> is anybody else having problems with linux-restricted-modules-686 being held back while doing a dist-upgrade?
[08:04] <ploom> eisma: what menus?
[08:04] <ploom> eisma, maybe you could just try different themes?
[08:04] <quintin> Shane-S: grep domain.com *
[08:04] <LycoLoco> hey quintin - got another question for ya - is there anywhere that a boot log is kept, so I might find what my system does normally during a boot? I don't think it's a hdd problem, as I just commented out everytrhing in fstab dealing with hdb, and it booted in the exact same manner
[08:04] <iosdfjdosi> hi al
[08:04] <iosdfjdosi> al
[08:04] <Shane-S> ty quintin
[08:05] <eisma> ploom i dont want to try a diff theme.. i just want to change the color of a fong
[08:05] <eisma> font*
[08:05] <Shane-S> is grep based on the updateddb command?
[08:05] <ploom> eisma, still for all the windows??
[08:05] <VirginiaSteaks> @eisma : you have to create a file in your user directory called .gtkrc-2.0
[08:05] <Shane-S> updatedb*
[08:05] <Davegoodson> hi, can anyone help? some of my apps seem to think that i'm not connected to a network for some reason. Gaim, network manager, and the gnome-main-menu thinks it too...
[08:06] <quintin> Shane-S: don't think so
[08:06] <quintin> Davegoodson: elaborate
[08:06] <Shane-S> ohh lol, it check from current directory...duh :P
[08:06] <VirginiaSteaks> @eisma : wait a sec, i will post a link for you to chance font colors of menues
[08:06] <Shane-S> I wasn't at  / :P
[08:06] <mandrill> my ubuntu machine has dissappeared completely form mshome now
[08:06] <Shane-S> crap...still nothing :(
[08:06] <Lynoure> Davegoodson: And it is not an over-done firewall script? or your router firewalling things?
[08:06] <Davegoodson> quintin, ? huh
[08:07] <Shane-S> hmm...guess I have to find if it is PHP or postfix that is placing the domain in outgoing mail headers
[08:07] <mhiku>  configure: error: !!! no tgetent - no screen when i compile screen
[08:07] <concept10> eisma, you could modify the current themes font's color if you are adventurous
[08:07] <VirginiaSteaks> @eisma: still there?
[08:07] <Davegoodson> Lynoure, i dont have a no firewall scripts or anything that will be doing that
[08:07] <ploom> eisma, because the thing is, all the appearances of windows inside X depend on the theme, and window manager (at least)
[08:08] <VirginiaSteaks> eisma, try this link: i tried it out and it works perfectly http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/33813/
[08:08] <usuario> ,-L.G-,.LYDIA    HABBO    EN    FRANCES
[08:08] <Davegoodson> Lynoure, quintin. its just gaim, network manager and gnome-main-menu that does it.. its annoying with gaim because it doesnt log in
[08:08] <usuario> TCKHF,VFBF-MV,GFLF
[08:08] <Breetai> Hey, I have the microsoft true type fonts installed. how do I get them to show up under xlsfonts?
[08:09] <ploom> eisma, please anyone else, correct me, but I'm afraid you'll have to make a custom theme, when all you want is to change the color of fonts in menu
[08:09] <quintin> Shane-S: I'll get you a medal.
[08:09] <ilovebytes> hi is there a way to install edgy or feisty from an usb stick ?
[08:09] <quintin> LycoLoco: Not sure, except dmesg, which is in core.  have you tried booting without apci maybe?
[08:09] <quintin> ilovebytes: sure.
[08:09] <LycoLoco> quintin: nah, is that a boot option for grub?
[08:10] <lnxmomo> hey
[08:10] <comradeC> does anyone know of way to totally disable net access for a user/account?  Is there some way to do it with ipchain or maybe disable access to eth0?
[08:10] <quintin> LycoLoco: you could also dig in /var/log.   it's a boot option for the kernel
[08:10] <LycoLoco> alrighty, thanks :-)
[08:10] <LycoLoco> I'll test it out
[08:10] <LycoLoco> what is ACPI?
[08:10] <Lynoure> Davegoodson: oh, network manager too. So is there some apps seeing the network and are you talking about wired or wireless?
[08:11] <lnxmomo> does anyone know how to modify the desktop panels in gnome, i dont like the top and bottom pannels
[08:11] <Davegoodson> Lynoure, wired
[08:11] <LycoLoco> lnxmomo: just drag them around, or right click and say remove them
[08:11] <Lynoure> Davegoodson: and the other answer?
[08:12] <Davegoodson> Lynoure, mmm all apps other than them see the network
[08:12] <kivio> hi, where can i report a bug with feisty herd3?
[08:12] <kitche> kivo: launchpad
[08:13] <dhq> how do i disable videos playback  on my pc and enable it when i want it
[08:13] <Lynoure> comradeC: yes, I guess you could, with iptables. But why do you want to? If you do not trust that user, don't even let them on your system.
[08:15] <Darmago> Er... hello all
[08:15] <Davegoodson> Lynoure, mmm all apps other than them see the network (just repeating incase you didnt see)
[08:15] <mon^rch> .msg Aysha del.icio.us
[08:15] <Lynoure> Davegoodson: then try reconfiguring gaim, perhaps. If your network otherwise works, it does not matter if networkmanager does not see it. (I'm not sure what gnome main menu does with network)
[08:15] <comradeC> Lynoure, its for testing in a secure enviroment, I want something that will be able to run apps without any influence of the network
[08:15] <SurfnKid> !rpm
[08:15] <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)
[08:15] <Davegoodson> Lynoure, it displays if you are connected or not
[08:16] <Lynoure> Aysha: Linux should rid you of the need to reinstall every 6 months,  but there are many online bookmark sites
[08:16] <Lynoure> Davegoodson: and you are not just meaning the networkmanager applet there?
[08:16] <mwalling> Aysha: Google browser sync
[08:16] <mwalling> its only for firefox, but can be used on all platforms
[08:17] <DeadCanny> i think there's a problem with linux-image-server on ubuntu dapper. the meta package wants to install linux-image-2.6.15-28-server, but it doesnt exists. or is that my fault?
[08:17] <quintin> LycoLoco: /win 5
[08:17] <Darmago> I have recently downloaded ubuntu and copied the CD image to a cd, but it won't open at startup...
[08:17] <LycoLoco> quintin: what's that?
[08:17] <iosdfjdosi> where do i get feisty fawn from?
[08:17] <quintin> LycoLoco: disregard
[08:17] <LycoLoco> quintin: ok
[08:17] <Davegoodson> Lynoure, well it worked before i installed network manager.. i got ride of network manager and it still stays the same
[08:17] <Lynoure> DeadCanny: It's a problem with version numbers, not your fault
[08:17] <soundray> !feisty | iosdfjdosi
[08:17] <ubotu> iosdfjdosi: 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
[08:18] <DeadCanny> ok, do you know when it will be fixed?
[08:18] <joeljkp> woo, all hail cnr+ubuntu!
[08:18] <yommb> Where can I get a good listing of games that will run under linux ?
[08:18] <Darmago> yommb: Google might provide you with one, I don't know myself
[08:18] <LycoLoco> joeljkp: does it work well?
[08:18] <thansen> what was the "special" version of ubuntu coming out called that is for designers (comes with gimp, kino, etc)?
[08:18] <joeljkp> lycoloco: don't know, it's not out yet
[08:18] <Lynoure> DeadCanny: sorry, no, just that it is marked as a critical problem and probably very high priority
[08:19] <DeadCanny> ah, nice
[08:19] <kitche> Darmago: you have to burn the image you can't just copy the image over to the cd
[08:19] <DeadCanny> thanks
[08:19] <Darmago> kitche: I burned it just like it said on the ubuntu website
[08:19] <Lynoure> thansen: mediabuntu, perhaps?
[08:19] <joeljkp> yommb: http://icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php?license=commercial
[08:19] <yommb> thx :)
[08:20] <soundray> Darmago: have you set the BIOS to boot from CD?
[08:20] <Darmago> No
[08:20] <Darmago> I guess that would be a problem
[08:20] <thansen> Lynoure: no, it's an official project
[08:20] <Lynoure> thansen: then check Canonical site?
[08:21] <iosdfjdosi> are the ubuntu servers down?
[08:21] <soundray> Darmago: with some BIOSs you have to enter the setup and set the boot priorities. Others give you a menu if you hit F12 or something during boot
[08:21] <iosdfjdosi> i cant download updates!
[08:21] <Darmago> Thank you soundray
[08:21] <Pici> Lynoure, thansen : Ubuntu-studio?
[08:21] <Aysha> Would that be Studumtu?
[08:22] <mwalling> when you log in through ssh, the last login stats are displayed after the motd. is there a way to put fortune in between that?
[08:22] <Aysha> -buntu^
[08:22] <pestilence> when you plug in a device and it is automatically mounted, why doesn't it observe the contents of your fstab?
[08:22] <Pici> I wish ;) http://ubuntustudio.org/
[08:22] <soundray> iosdfjdosi: works fine here
[08:22] <iosdfjdosi> weird
[08:22] <soundray> mwalling: call fortune from $HOME/.bashrc
[08:22] <LycoLoco> Help! My sytem won't boot and I can't figure out what I did wrong! http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2128110&postcount=399
[08:22] <thansen> Pici: that's it! :) thanks
[08:23] <Exabyte> is anyone familliar with using dmraid to install ubuntu on a fake RAID configuration
[08:23] <UberPsyX> hi guys, wondering if anyone can help me, i am trying to run xlink kai (freebie version of xbox live) and i connected my xbox to the ethernet port via crossover cable and pick up internet via wifi pci card, but as soon as i boot them both up and they start working ubuntu shows a box saying "connected to wired network" and then all internet applications wont work and all the games on my xbox disappear (online games of halo 2),
[08:24] <UberPsyX>  anyone know how to stop it switching to the wired internet connection?
[08:24] <soundray> iosdfjdosi: security.ubuntu.com just timed out for me -- is that where yours is hanging, too?
[08:24] <baboon> hellp
[08:25] <baboon> ##
[08:25] <LycoLoco> UberPsyX: you've gotta bridge the connections somehow
[08:25] <soundray> !helpme | baboon
[08:25] <ubotu> baboon: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:25] <baboon> ah so this does work
[08:25] <Ferret> LycoLoco: Have you checked your hard drive cables?
[08:25] <UberPsyX> hi soundray, i spoke to you the other day and ive got a bit further, could you take a look at the question i just posted?
[08:25] <LycoLoco> ferret - yes
[08:25] <mwalling> soundray: its going motd, LastLogin, fortune, prompt. i want motd, fortune, lastlogin, prompt
[08:25] <soundray> UberPsyX: network-manager is probably responsible for this behaviour
[08:25] <baboon> soundray
[08:25] <UberPsyX> soundray| ok thanks
[08:26] <Ferret> LycoLoco: Have you tried switching drives around or removing drives that are not required for boot?
[08:26] <soundray> mwalling: aren't you picky ;)
[08:26] <LycoLoco> Ferret - this is all absolutely contained to what I did last night, as everything works perfectly in windows (all drives and everything). This has nothing to do with drives, that's just hte last message that shows before it hangs
[08:26] <baboon> my problem is that the titlebar doesn't show on compiz
[08:26] <Shane-S> ok so I just tried grep apache * and got not results, shouldn't I have at least gotten results in the apache2.conf file or similar?
[08:26] <soundray> !xgl | baboon
[08:26] <ubotu> baboon: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:26] <mwalling> soundray: last login is whats important, i would like it right above my prompt when i login, if possible
[08:26] <mwalling> not burried in fortunes
[08:27] <LycoLoco> ferret - if I could get a log of what normally happens when I boot, I could find out what that next line is supposed to be and that might give us a clue as to what is going on, but I can't find any such log
[08:27] <UberPsyX> does anyone know how to bridge my ethernet port with my wifi pci card simply (im a noob :P)?
[08:27] <Lynoure> LycoLoco: I have cdrom lines right after that
[08:27] <soundray> mwalling: would it be good enough to just call 'lastlog -u username' again from .bashrc after fortune?
[08:28] <LycoLoco> Lynoure: ok, I'll try commenting that out from fstab to see if that fixes anything
[08:28] <Lynoure> LycoLoco: I can pastebin my dmesg if you think it'd help but I'm on dapper not edgy
[08:28] <LycoLoco> though I don't know what would have happened to do anything
[08:28] <Ferret> LycoLoco: That's possible.
[08:28] <quaal> hello
[08:28] <soundray> UberPsyX: I don't know exactly how it works, but I would set it up with firestarter.
[08:28] <quaal> anyone know of a program like mp3bookhelper for ubuntu
[08:28] <LycoLoco> Lynoure: actually, where do I find that? maybe then I can look at mine and see if that indeed is what would come next
[08:28] <jhn> hi
[08:28] <mwalling> soundray: doable, but do you know where last log is called the first time?
[08:28] <Lynoure> LycoLoco: wait, I'll pastebin it...
[08:29] <baboon> well thanks soundray and ubotu
[08:29] <LycoLoco> ok Lynoure - thanks
[08:29] <petepete> Why is the search in KDE so slow? if i use the shell and 'locate' its super quick??
[08:29] <jhn> i would like ot know please how i can get into the firewall to allow my webcam to work
[08:29] <UberPsyX> soundray| i downloaded firestarter but i dont know how to set it up or anything
[08:29] <Ferret> LycoLoco: should be /var/log/messages o.o
[08:29] <baboon> bye
[08:29] <Ferret> quaal: What does it do?
[08:29] <LycoLoco> ferret - dang, the last thign in that log is from wehn I rebooted for the final time last night
[08:30] <soundray> mwalling: grep -rl lastlog /etc reveals /etc/pam.d/login
[08:30] <ferret_0567> locate indexes files
[08:30] <quaal> Ferret, you load an album into it and it connect to the cddb, and will automatically adjust the tags on all the songs
[08:30] <kitche> petepete: kde doesn't have a search tool per say at elast not one like beagle where it caches everything and you search it's database so it has to do it realtime
[08:30] <dyrne> petepete: i dont know kde but if its not indexed it will take time. locate creates a databbase of all files everyonce in a while and only needs to look at the db
[08:30] <LycoLoco> ferret - I'm looking now to see what it does when it normally boots
[08:30] <trevor_> howdy everyone (TGIF). Does anyone know why my Linksys WUSB54G adapter won't work when I reboot with it plugged in?
[08:30] <roler> how do I enable a boot option in grub to load my windows *THAT* will not be wiped out whenever ubuntu upgrades to a new kernel?
[08:30] <soundray> UberPsyX: did you download it from the firestarter homepage? You should install it from the repositories instead.
[08:30] <LycoLoco> the next line is Feb  9 00:02:01 LycoLoco kernel: [17179574.808000]  hdd: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(66)
[08:30] <LycoLoco> so I'll comment that drive out
[08:30] <ferret_0567> KDE Find probably uses the "find" command.
[08:31] <UberPsyX> soundray| i used synaptic package manager
[08:31] <ferret_0567> I do think that KDE Find is slower than the "find" command
[08:31] <noneee> who can tell me the differences between the kernels 386, generic?
[08:31] <soundray> UberPsyX: good, then you can open a terminal and run 'sudo firestarter' and follow your intuition from there.
[08:31] <soundray> !generic | noneee
[08:31] <ubotu> noneee: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[08:32] <UberPsyX> soundray| ok ill be back if i get stuck, thanks a lot
[08:32] <Shironeko> Got a "serious" problem here.

[08:32] <jhn> can anyone help me with my webcam not working it says its behind a firewall but firestarter isn't going right now so how do i enable it?
[08:32] <kris^_^> hi
[08:33] <Shironeko> Whenever I boot ubuntu without being not connected to the internet it is just daaaamm slow
[08:33] <Shironeko> *without being
[08:33] <kitche> jhn: iptables is your firewall
[08:33] <soundray> Shironeko: what's the first line in your /etc/hosts file?
[08:33] <exspecto> i installed vim-full on edgy and now apt tells me that autoremove will uninstall glade-common and several other packages.  how do i get it to *not* want to do that?
[08:33] <amonbish> sup
[08:33] <kris^_^> i just updated my kernel, the recomended updates for edgy, and now x windows wont start. Is there an easy way of taking it back?
[08:33] <Shironeko> wait I'll check
[08:33] <Nighteye> hey
[08:33] <amonbish> you tell me
[08:33] <jhn> oh so how do i get into ip kitche
[08:33] <exspecto> kris: do you use nvidia glx drivers?
[08:33] <Aysha> Will Ubuntu let me do a format of my drive before installing?
[08:34] <kris^_^> yep
[08:34] <kitche> jhn: you cna open up firestarter and convert it
[08:34] <soundray> Shane-S: run the command 'hostname'
[08:34] <Lynoure> LycoLoco: http://pastebin.ca/347869 bit messy as I have hibernated twice since
[08:34] <kris^_^> they were updated yesterday
[08:34] <kitche> jhn: opps edit it
[08:34] <exspecto> kris: the nvidia driver has to match your kernel
[08:34] <LycoLoco> Lynoure: appreciate it - taking a look now

[08:34] <Aysha> I need to finish formatting my drive so I get the rest of my 160 GB that it only let me keep 137 of from Disc Wizard. :P
[08:34] <Shironeko> Ok, I see
[08:34] <kris^_^> shouldn't it match when i update it
[08:34] <jhn> so how do i allow ports in firestarter kitche ?
[08:34] <exspecto> kris: it didn't  *shrug*
[08:34] <Shironeko> the last thing I did was to install Samba
[08:34] <noneee> soundray, the document doesn't show the differences between 386 and generic
[08:34] <Pensacola> I can't use the nvidia drivers with the new kernel, any fixes for that?
[08:35] <kris^_^> so how do i fix it
[08:35] <exspecto> see, you aren't the only one
[08:35] <Shane-S> thanks, anyone here know where postfix gets its return-path from, it is setting it to a domain I can get through are mail filter (its hosted by ISP so I can't adjust it)
[08:35] <kitche> jhn: you have to make a policy to allow them ports to be forwarded or open I don't use firestarter myself so I m not to familair with it
[08:35] <soundray> noneee: what's the question? Performance?
[08:35] <jhn> ok thankyou kitche that helps tho
[08:35] <lnxmomo> hey, i deleted the bottom panel in gnome in ubuntu by accident
[08:35] <ferret_0567> Does Vista support any of these characters in file names? !@#$%^&*()_+={}[] |\<>?:;"'
[08:35] <lnxmomo> how do i get it back?
[08:36] <noneee> soundray, no, I used k7... now what I have to use?
[08:36] <Ferret> quaal: try 'apt-cache rdepends libcddb2' or 'apt-cache rdepends cddb' and see if any of those programs do what you want?
[08:36] <soundray> noneee: generic
[08:36] <exspecto> run gnome-panel ?
[08:36] <noneee> ok
[08:36] <noneee> thanks
[08:36] <ferret_0567> I bet not
[08:36] <noneee> ^^
[08:36] <kris^_^> so how do i fix my problem?
[08:36] <LycoLoco> Lynoure: yeah, looks like ours are pretty similar - I'm gonna comment out that drive from my fstab, as it actually isn't hooked up currently (but also hasn't been for a week and it's rebooted fine anyway)
[08:36] <quaal> Ferret, thanks man
[08:36] <soundray> Shironeko: check the content of /etc/hostname, and add it to the first line of /etc/hosts with a space
[08:37] <lnxmomo> expecto: that doesnt work
[08:37] <guerby> hi, are there more recent ISO for edgy than those at  http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/ ? (to minimize post install download...)
[08:37] <newpZ> is there a ubuntu beryl channel?
[08:37] <FrenKy> Hi all, I have a question concerning new kernel.
[08:37] <apokryphos> guerby: no
[08:37] <Lynoure> LycoLoco: good luck. I hope it turns out fine. (I hate hardware problems)
[08:37] <Linkmasta23> just ask
[08:37] <Hausberg> what are the dependencies for vmware-server?
[08:37] <kris^_^> yes many of us have a question
[08:37] <guerby> apokryphos, ok thanks
[08:37] <apokryphos> newpZ: /msg ubotu beryl
[08:37] <LycoLoco> Lynoure: thanks :-) me too
[08:37] <Shironeko> Sountray, Thanks let me reebot and I'll tell you if it worked
[08:37] <ferret_0567> lol, JFS and ext3 supports all those characters in file names
[08:37] <lnxmomo> can anyone tell me how to get the bottom panel in gnome that i deleted by accident back
[08:37] <lnxmomo> ?
[08:37] <Linkmasta23> lol my installation disk doesnt work:p
[08:38] <exspecto> kris: try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-glx"
[08:38] <LycoLoco> lnxmomo: click on any other panel and say create new pannel
[08:38] <UberPsyX> soundray| right, i got a firewall set up, now how do i set up a bridge between my ethernet port and wifi card with this
[08:38] <LycoLoco> er, right click
[08:38] <kris^_^> thank you exspecto :)
[08:38] <exspecto> don't thank me until you know if it works ;)
[08:38] <dyrne> lnxmomo: 'rm -fr ~/.g' then alt-ctrl-backspace should restore to initial settings
[08:38] <Linkmasta23> whats the minimum ram requirement?
[08:38] <LycoLoco> lol exspecto
[08:38] <ferret_0567> And then, M$ blames the user for putting the invalid characters in file names while infact, it's a limitation of their OS
[08:38] <lnxmomo> thx
[08:39] <Linkmasta23> !requirements
[08:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about requirements - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:39] <Hausberg> can someone help with vmware-server installation or with vmware-player I can install neither nor it seems
[08:39] <bean-oh> Hausberg, where you getting stuck?
[08:39] <soundray> UberPsyX: in Preferences, set your internet and internal interface names and tick "Enable Internet connection sharing"
[08:39] <dyrne> Hausberg: i dont remember what i installed as far as dep but vmware-server went pretty smooth in dapper
[08:39] <robertwoes>  i can't remember my nickserv password... how do i retrieve it?
[08:39] <lnxmomo> thx dyrne
[08:39] <LinTux> anybody know where the installed files for the hamradiomenu files are in the file system?
[08:39] <soundray> Aysha: good luck
[08:39] <Roey> good look Aysha :)
[08:40] <Roey> Aysha:  what language do you speak btw
[08:40] <UberPsyX> soundray| yes thats ticked, should it work now then?
[08:40] <Hausberg> bean-oh in server installation in the configuration it seems, in player I get an error in the end of package installation
[08:40] <lnxmomo> now how can i get all my icons to minize into it
[08:40] <bean-oh> Hausberg, yeah, it was pretty easy
[08:40] <Aysha> English, primarily. Why?
[08:40] <FrenKy> Nwebee here :) AFAIK I can see, latest version is  2.6.20, but my version (6.0.6)  is 2.6.15-28-386. I have external USB device formatted with NTFS, and I wanted to add support for writing. Used ntfs-3g, but I get :
[08:40] <FrenKy> WARNING: Deficient FUSE kernel module detected. Some driver features are
[08:40] <FrenKy>          not available (swap file on NTFS, boot from NTFS by LILO), and
[08:40] <FrenKy>          unmount is not safe unless it's made sure the ntfs-3g process
[08:40] <FrenKy>          naturally terminates after calling 'umount'. The safe FUSE kernel
[08:40] <FrenKy>          driver is included in the official Linux kernels since version

[08:40] <FrenKy>          except the faulty FUSE version 2.6.2. For more help, please
[08:40] <FrenKy>          have a look at /usr/share/doc/ntfs-3g/README.Debian. Thanks
[08:40] <FrenKy> Now I think I should upgrade to 2.6.0, but why internal mechanism  did not update??

[08:40] <failedinstallAMD> Hello all.. I have a failed install on AMD64 HT, Jetway Mobo 939 gt3 jtd(nvidia onboard graphics)
[08:40] <tj239> NOTE TO SELF:  Remember that every time you reboot your computer you will have to re-enter the xset commands for the screensaver
[08:40] <failedinstallAMD> ..wondering if anyone can help out
[08:41] <UberPsyX> soundray| it is, thanks a lot again soundray
[08:41] <bean-oh> Hausberg, paste the error to pastebin
[08:41] <kitche> tj239: really you don't have to
[08:41] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: whats going on?
[08:42] <kitche> tj239: you can add xset commands to any number of scripts to make it easier
[08:42] <FrenKy> woops :) Just noticed  pastebin...
[08:42] <tj239> kitchie, I'm a hopeless newb and don't know scripts
[08:42] <kris^_^> hey exspecto it didn't work
[08:42] <Hausberg> bean-oh http://pastebin.ca/347881
[08:42] <Roey> hi, how do I make a swapfile (a file I made with mkswap) load up as swapspace in /etc/fstab?
[08:42] <failedinstallAMD> install fails usually at 5/6 with 64bit 6.06 lts, 6.10 32bit, 5.04 32bit
[08:42] <failedinstallAMD> also fails 6.06 32bit
[08:43] <FrenKy> Anybody here has 6.06 with kernel version 2.6.0?
[08:43] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: whats the error message?
[08:43] <[dEvIL-bOY] > helllo peeps
[08:43] <Linkmasta23> what is the minimum ram requirements?
[08:43] <exspecto> and you restarted gdm/kdm?
[08:43] <[dEvIL-bOY] > need some help
[08:43] <[dEvIL-bOY] > trying to install ubuntu
[08:43] <Ferret> Roey: /var/lib/swap/1 none swap sw
[08:43] <ferret_0567> And?
[08:43] <[dEvIL-bOY] > but i can't boot via the cd rom
[08:44] <kris^_^> yes i restarted
[08:44] <Ferret> Roey: so filename first
[08:44] <failedinstallAMD> colutti, a bud told me the 64 kernel must be upgraded in order to make this board work ,that a little beyond me
[08:44] <[dEvIL-bOY] > so i'm trying installing it from the hard drive
[08:44] <Linkmasta23> you have to change the bios to boot from disk ;)
[08:44] <ferret_0567> Please put everything you need to say in one message
[08:44] <Roey> ferret, ok *perfect*, thanks :)
[08:44] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: i've never heard about that!
[08:44] <soundray> FrenKy: you are using the latest kernel for 6.06 already
[08:44] <[dEvIL-bOY] > but i got stuck in this bit that says target file system can't find /bin/...
[08:44] <failedinstallAMD> not really an error msg, the gdm fails , then the text mode flickers , can log in text mode though
[08:44] <exspecto> kris: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=257353
[08:44] <[dEvIL-bOY] > i'm following this tutorial but it doesn't make too much sense to me
[08:45] <Linkmasta23> [dEvIL-bOY] : you have to change the bios to boot from disk ;)
[08:45] <[dEvIL-bOY] > Linkmasta23 if only was that simple
[08:45] <Roey> ferret:  how does fstab know which mount point the swapfile depends on, though?  Should I twiddle the ordering (last column) accordingly??
[08:45] <exspecto> short answer: either install the nvidia drivers manually or downgrade to the previous kernel
[08:45] <[dEvIL-bOY] > i can't coz i forgot my bios password
[08:45] <tj239> kitchie, I came back and found my computer asleep,  I tried to jiggle my mouse but with no response, the hard drive was spinning like hell,  I tried to wait but there was no response on my monitor,  long story made short;  reboot and I investigate the xset -dpms command I learned lastnight and found it was enabled :\
[08:45] <FrenKy> soundray: thanks! But, now I have a problem with NTFS support and ntfs-3g..
[08:45] <Linkmasta23> LAWL
[08:45] <Linkmasta23> thats funny
[08:45] <soundray> !fuse | FrenKy
[08:45] <ubotu> FrenKy: Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[08:45] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: but can you see the login screen?
[08:45] <soundray> FrenKy: did you follow this guide?
[08:45] <[dEvIL-bOY] > laugh as much as you like
[08:45] <Linkmasta23> try to get it still
[08:45] <n4cht> ok, so hitting shift+backspace restarts my xgl session.  is there any way to disable that shortcut?
[08:45] <bean-oh> Hausberg, sounds like its seeing an existing file where it shouldn't. perhaps temporarily move that file and rerun the install.
[08:46] <Ferret> Roey: It'll use the same method it would use if you did "cat /some/filename/here" o.o
[08:46] <[dEvIL-bOY] > but it's true
[08:46] <FrenKy> soundray: What do you suggest?
[08:46] <Hausberg> bean-oh rgr I'll try that
[08:46] <Linkmasta23> but that is the EASIEST way to do it
[08:46] <soundray> FrenKy: ^^ (ubotu)
[08:46] <FrenKy> ubotu:Ok, I'll take a look, and get back to you..
[08:46] <tj239> it was contrary to what I set it to ... being_ not +dmps  but -dmps
[08:46] <[dEvIL-bOY] > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows
[08:46] <FrenKy> Thanks
[08:46] <Roey> ferret:  right, but say /var is on a separate filesystem.. how would it know that the swapfile depends on the var filesystem being loaded first?
[08:46] <bruenig> !thanks | FrenKy
[08:46] <ubotu> FrenKy: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[08:46] <failedinstallAMD> tj239 reminds me , I also get that a t times during install.. goes to sleep but locks up
[08:46] <[dEvIL-bOY] > can someone have a look at this guide and guide me??

[08:47] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: when you boot from the livecd, does it work?
[08:47] <SharkP> should I use xgl or aiglrx?
[08:47] <bruenig> SharkP, help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:47] <Ferret> Roey: Ubuntu will probably enable swap after everything else -- or I guess it might do it in the order that the lines are in the fstab
[08:47] <Ded> hello everybody
[08:47] <kitche> tj239: just add that line to your .bashrc if you need to
[08:47] <SharkP> what about that channel?

[08:48] <bruenig> SharkP, go there for your compiz questions
[08:48] <SharkP> ok
[08:48] <SharkP> thanx
[08:48] <SharkP> bye
[08:48] <Roey> tj239:  it's just ubuntu
[08:48] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: so the problem is not the kernel, is your video card ...
[08:48] <Roey> tj239:  go with straight Debian Proper
[08:48] <eternal_p> 'afternoon all...via update manager I just got the .11 kernel  It seems to take without a problem, however I guess I have a compiled version of the nvidia drivers...so when I now boot .11, gnome won't load up...I am trying to find a page where I can get instructions on getting my ndvida drivers back up...
[08:48] <n4cht> damnit.
[08:48] <Roey> tj239:  I felt the same way you did
[08:48] <n4cht> stupid shift+backspace got me again!
[08:48] <Ferret> Roey: Huh?  You mean the last two entries '0 0'?
[08:48] <Hausberg> bean-oh I am not sure where the duplicate files are located
[08:48] <Roey> ferret: right
[08:48] <DrJohnston> Hmm.. Does anyone know if i can setup a RAID 1 array on a secondary disk AFTER the first disk has been setup?
[08:49] <DrJohnston> I've never setup a raid before, wasn't sure if you can setup the array after a disk has already been formatted
[08:49] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: try do edit your xorg.conf and change the video card driver to vesa .. see if this works
[08:49] <Ferret> Roey: The first is to specify if the dump command should dump that fs, the second is to determine what order they should be fscked in (not mounted)
[08:49] <tj239> apparently ya need computer knowledge which everyone was getting just after my schooling.
[08:49] <Roey> DrJohnston:  you must copy all the data to the array, then add the first disk to the array
[08:49] <Roey> ferret:  oh, my bad!
[08:49] <DrJohnston> Roey: any idea of the best way to copy all the data to the array?
[08:49] <Roey> ferret: see, here on my Debian box, I don't get this automounted at /all/, even though it's in fstab
[08:49] <kitche> eternal_p: you have to reinstall the nvidia drivers if you compiled them each kernel upgrade makes the nvidia drivers not work for the new kernel unless you recompile them or get the package for that kernel
[08:49] <Roey> DrJohnston:  dd?
[08:49] <failedinstallAMD> yeah .. my suspicions go there ..onboard nvidia graphic
[08:50] <DrJohnston> dD?
[08:50] <noelferreira> hi people. how can i have my uploads limited in edgy?
[08:50] <Roey> DrJohnston:  yes, althought others here know better than me
[08:50] <DrJohnston> IWhat's dd?
[08:50] <bean-oh> Hausberg, i would look at line 112 of that Install.pm file, but my hunch is that the file is in /tmp/vmware-config5/...
[08:50] <kitche> !dd | DrJohnston
[08:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:50] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: i have an onboard nvidia as well .. and here everything works fine
[08:50] <Roey> DrJohnston:  a brute-force way of copying an entire partition at a time instead of individual files
[08:50] <kitche> bah :(
[08:50] <LycoLoco> Lynoure: yeah...that was no go - it still failed at the exact same point
[08:51] <eternal_p> kitche: when I do a sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx it tells me I already have the latest version
[08:51] <DrJohnston> Thanks Roey
[08:51] <soundray> DrJohnston: 'man dd'
[08:51] <failedinstallAMD> ok , will try that .. change to vesa , thanks Colutti .. this very frustrating prob for me
[08:51] <eternal_p> so I then just download and run the nvidia drivers from their website?
[08:51] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: do what i told you to do ...
[08:51] <Hausberg> bean-oh it says  mkpath($targetdir) unless $nonono;
[08:51] <Hausberg> I have no idea what targetdir is
[08:51] <eternal_p> kitche: so I then just download and run the nvidia drivers from their website? (sorry, always forget to put the name first)
[08:51] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: if you want, you can add me in msn ...
[08:51] <noelferreira> hi people. how can i have my uploads limited in edgy?
[08:51] <mena> i hade a problem with the languges on Xp and this happening when i make a folser on kubuntu with another languge diffrent form english
[08:51] <Ferret> Roey: Well, different distros deal with fstab differently... the normal way is to use mount -a, but some try to be clever
[08:52] <soundray> noelferreira: do you mean imposing a quota on uploads?
[08:52] <mena> folser>>>Folder*
[08:52] <kitche> eternal_p: yes if you have the nvidia package installed and it's the one that says can not load the nvidia driver
[08:52] <tj239> it would be sweet and ultimately helpful if Ubuntu corp (or whetever they would call themselves) would put out some cohesive how tos so a newb could apply what finishing touches there needs to be.
[08:52] <bean-oh> Hausberg, ooh. ugly. my guess is that the /tmp/vmware-config5 directory is created on install. i would delete it, and rerun the installer again.
[08:52] <eternal_p> kitche: so should I do a sudo apt-get remove nvidial-glx and then a sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx ?
[08:52] <Roey> Ferret:  understood
[08:52] <kitche> eternal_p: I woulde jsut to see if it will work
[08:53] <kitche> eternal_p: did you update recently the apt list?
[08:53] <bean-oh> Hausberg, it sounds like it failed on the first install, and now rerunning it gets it stuck. i've seen it happen with other commercial linux software installs.
[08:53] <failedinstallAMD> colutti , can you open a private channel to me in irc  (newbie here)
[08:53] <eternal_p> kitche: just now, I even added the repository from albertomilone: still says I'm up to date
[08:53] <noelferreira> soundray, yes that's it
[08:53] <Hausberg> bean-oh should I run again installer or just config?
[08:53] <tj239> I guess they think people mostly just use the monitor switch as their screensaver,
[08:53] <soundray> noelferreira: for file sharing?
[08:53] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: im newbie in irc too .. i dont know how to do this ..
[08:53] <bean-oh> Hausberg, is it installed properly? or what?
[08:53] <noelferreira> amule
[08:54] <colutti> failedinstallAMD: :)
[08:54] <ckern> Can someone tell me if I can log in as root without logging in as another user first?
[08:54] <noelferreira> soundray, i need to limit global uploads in my pc
[08:54] <Linkmasta23> what are the system requirements of ubuntu 6.10
[08:54] <FrenKy> Ok, after breef reading on the matter (NTFS support - ntfsmount link) I can see that suggested solution "ntfsmount" is not so good. This is what I found already when googling for the topic. But what I found is that ntfs-3g is much better and mor e reliable than the ntfsmount, so I said, let's use this one :) But now I see that it needs FUSE, and this comes with 2.6.20... Anybody has some idea will this kernel version soon be available as update for 6.06? 
[08:54] <Hausberg> bean-oh good question because trying to run it gives me vmware is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured
[08:54] <Hausberg> for this system.
[08:54] <ferret_0567> !sysreq
[08:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sysreq - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:54] <LycoLoco> Lynoure: FrenKy I've used NTFS-3g - it works awesomely
[08:54] <Hausberg> and it recommends to run /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl.
[08:54] <White-Paws> Thanks Soundray. Problem solved!
[08:54] <ferret_0567> !ubuntusysreq
[08:54] <White-Paws> I owe you one
[08:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntusysreq - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:54] <soundray> tj239: if you have a support question, please ask. If you want to discuss general issues, please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:54] <Titch> soundray| that didnt work, it still comes up with the network connection thing and freezes all the internet apps
[08:54] <TuTUx> I'm on edgy, just had the new kernel updated(2.6.17-11), now how should I make my nvidia driver(9631) working with the new kernel??
[08:55] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: it's very easy to set up and you can just follow the instructiosn for ubuntu over at ntfs-3g.org and you should be good to go

[08:55] <FrenKy> LycoLoco:Good news :)
[08:55] <bean-oh> Hausberg, sounds like you got a few issues. are you running the config when you get this error, or still in the installer?
[08:55] <eternal_p> kitche: i'm sorry, I am lost what you recommend, should I run the driver install from nvidia ?
[08:55] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: What ubuntu version you have*
[08:55] <soundray> Titch: then you need to find a way to disable network-manager on that interface. Check your top panel for a network-manager icon.
[08:55] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: you don't need to do a kernel compile or anything, just follow what it says - I'm using 6.10 Edgy
[08:55] <noelferreira> any solution soundray ?
[08:55] <Linkmasta23> !systemrequirements
[08:55] <kitche> eternal_p: yea that why you know it will work until the next kernel update
[08:55] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: What Kernel version?
[08:56] <Hausberg> bean-oh I get that running config
[08:56] <kuw88> where can i found realplayer for ubutun
[08:56] <kuw88> ?
[08:56] <eternal_p> fair enough...i'll reboot inot that kernel and give it a shot

[08:56] <sylpheedClaws> I'm finishing my upgrade... wish me luck!
[08:56] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: uh. I think 2.6.17 generic - whatever comes with Edgy stock
[08:56] <sylpheedClaws> yeah
[08:56] <sylpheedClaws> 2.6.17
[08:56] <Linkmasta23> lol!
[08:56] <eternal_p> kitche: are there any special edgy eft changes to xorg.conf that I will need to re-make
[08:56] <soundray> noelferreira: there might be one, but I don't know it. Usually you can limit upload speeds and transfer volumes in filesharing software.
[08:56] <failedinstallAMD> colutti: I'm not on msn, on yahoo astrophysic@yahoo.com
[08:56] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: And that is the problem... I have 6.06 and the latest version is 2.15

[08:56] <Linkmasta23> i got a pm from ubotu

[08:57] <TuTUx> I'm on edgy, just had the new kernel updated(2.6.17-11), now how should I make my nvidia driver(9631) working with the new kernel?? or should I just install the new restricted-module?

[08:57] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: I know that it's workin in 2.6.17, so you might as well give it a shot
[08:57] <ferret_0567> ok, does anybody know where to get the latest NVIDIA module as a package?
[08:57] <White-Paws> Yes Soundray,
[08:57] <eternal_p> TuTUx: you are getting the upgrade from the restrcited-module? I am in the same boat, have to re-compile from scratch I think
[08:57] <kitche> !nvidia | eternal_p this page also tells you how to get the binary to work from their website

[08:58] <eternal_p> kitche: thanks, I tried that...still says I have the most up to date driver
[08:58] <tj239> soundray, yeah I know,  ......  I asked my question last time in here

[08:58] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: Noob here :) I'm fairly uncomfortable with manual update of kernel.. What do you think? I have not even looked at the topic...
[08:58] <sylpheedClaws> old system, give Xubuntu a try
[08:58] <ferret_0567> I need linux-restricted-modules installed and working so I can use a Atheros based D-Link DWL-G650 that works out of the box with Ubuntu 6.10 only if that package is installed.

[08:58] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: nah, don't do a kernel update, I don't think you need it. If I remember correctly, Fuse will install the module you need without having to do a kernel compile
[08:58] <soundray> tj239: sometime you need to ask several times until you find someone who a) knows the answer and b) has time for you. See !patience

[09:00] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: you said you're on dapper?
[09:00] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: Thanks, I'll take a look!
[09:00] <FrenKy> Yes
[09:00] <LycoLoco> yea - it'll work
[09:00] <DirkGently> for pici and terminus....the sudo issue from earlier....i did try to replicate from a fresh boot...and the same happened
[09:00] <LycoLoco> they have dapper instructions in there
[09:00] <Hausberg> bean-oh at least during reinstall I did not get any error and when it asked if I want to configure I said 'no' and the installation exited normally
[09:00] <bean-oh> cool
[09:00] <ronocdh> thank you very much, burner, I'll look into samba
[09:00] <bean-oh> Hausberg, how about when you run config now?
[09:00] <DirkGently> i did report it thru the bugs thing too
[09:00] <LesterGreen> question: if i install ubuntu server, will it automatically update itself and security patch itself? how does one ensure the utmost security on something liek a webserver?
[09:00] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: also, take note of this -
[09:00] <LycoLoco> * The gnome Trash don't support neither ntfs filesystem nor fat32 filesystem, so when you delete files with nautilus, they don't go in the trash, but in an hidden directory, at the root of the partition, call .Trash-<username>. So to 'empty the trash', you'll have to show hidden files (<Ctrl><H>) and use the suppr function of nautilus on this directory (<Shift><Suppr>)
[09:01] <failedinstallAMD> colutti: done that
[09:01] <soundray> Titch: you could go via System-Administration-Network and assign a static IP address, like 192.168.3.1. You'd have to configure the Xbox in the same way (with a different addres, e.g. 192.168.3.2).

[09:01] <ramvi> [edgy]  I have a ATI Rage 128-card. It's said to be supported with the r128-driver. But in dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it isn't listed... How do I get r128?
[09:01] <Linkmasta23> i am WAY under the system requirements
[09:02] <LesterGreen> erUSUL: is it ever necessary to be present with the server? im very new to this, forgive my dumb questions.
[09:02] <LesterGreen> everything can be handled via ssh?

[09:06] <DirkGently> dunno if learning linux via a server instal is a great idea
[09:07] <ferret_0567> That removes linux-restricted-modules, which I need
[09:07] <DirkGently> I'm just starting too...and at least a desktop instal is more user freindly
[09:07] <pestilence> soundray: i am not running gnome, and it's happening outside of any window manager
[09:07] <LycoLoco> ferret_0567: mine didn't remove any sources, and if it does you can just add them back, right?
[09:07] <bean-oh> Hausberg, line 70. That is troubling.

[09:10] <DirkGently> servers assume the admin knows whet theyre doin
[09:10] <bean-oh> Hausberg, i think i had to cheat the libpng if i remember right, and jused
[09:10] <Hausberg> bean-oh it does create icon in startmenu though
[09:10] <Hausberg> however, I think it runs now without network
[09:10] <ferret_0567> With this new module will I get AIGLX back like I had it in FC6?
[09:10] <DirkGently> so the support would be more technical.....my path, am learning on an easy desktop
[09:10] <bean-oh> Hausberg, and just create a link between the ubuntu provided libpng to that directory. but i found docs on if when i googled that warning
[09:11] <DirkGently> only when i get used to ubuntu via the command line....then start lookin at freebsd
[09:11] <failedinstallAMD> colutti: thanks , I will try that .. I am at astrophysic@yahoo.com if you wish to contact me
[09:11] <soundray> DirkGently: back on topic, please
[09:11] <bean-oh> Hausberg, it did create the vm networks, thats all i use. i didn't bother with host or bridging.
[09:11] <DirkGently> sorry

[09:12] <DirkGently> is nubuntu an official ubuntu project?

[09:13] <LjL> not/now
[09:14] <Hausberg> bean-oh when I answer "yes" to the question on line 62 vmware won't run
[09:15] <Hausberg> don't I need the networking in order to communicate with Ubuntu via samba or so? Internet does not matter
[09:15] <noelferreira> any program such as netlimiter to use with ubuntu?
[09:15] <bean-oh> Hausberg, yes.otherwise your virtual machines will act as if they don't have any NIC's installed.

[09:16] <DirkGently> it installs differently
[09:16] <Hausberg> bean-oh damn then I have a problem with that network adapter stuff
[09:16] <DirkGently> its not listed alongside kubuntu or ebuntu
[09:17] <bean-oh> Hausberg, not really sure. best bet might be to completely uninstall vmware, clear out the vmware folders in /tmp.

[09:17] <LjL> noelferreira: i don't know what netlimiter is or does, but perhaps you'd like to make sure you have Universe enabled and use apt-cache to search for some relevant keywords

[09:29] <quaal> bruenig, ah yes
[09:29] <bean-oh> Hausberg, not really sure. like i said, when i did it, it more or less worked 100%

[09:34] <eisma> I've been messing with my panels, now when i minimize windows they go no where, how do i get that back?
[09:34] <xutil> nice i didn't know that there was an ubuntu irc

[09:34] <ferret_0567> It restarts on lid close and if I wait for GDM to come back up, also on lid open
[09:35] <Cyrus25801> is there a program that i can safely write to NTFS
[09:35] <ferret_0567> If it works great on Windows, why could this be?
[09:35] <kitche> xutil: it's just freenode.net
[09:35] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, safety is unclear, ntfs-3g is the hands down best from what I have seen
[09:35] <soundray> stephan21: you need to follow the instructions on the forum page *very* closely and make sure you sudo the commands appropriately
[09:35] <LjL> movi, for one thing, this is a support channel and not a complains channel, and secondly, use #ubuntu+1 for Feisty support (surely, you can use Edgy and/or report a bug about the Feisty problem in the meanwhile?)
[09:35] <DirkGently> eisma try right clicking on the panel in question and see if the missing one is listed
[09:35] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, ntfs is like soundray said earlier proprietary so specifications are iffy when trying to reproduce writing ability
[09:35] <xutil> is there a backup file for gnome panels
[09:35] <soundray> Cyrus25801: I and others have answered this already
[09:36] <stephan21> soundray: i did :/
[09:36] <eisma> DirkGently don't see anything
[09:36] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: have you used it
[09:36] <stephan21> soundray: i heard the beep from my ipaq like it connected but its not
[09:36] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, no, when I did dual boot a long time ago, I just created a fat32 partition and used that
[09:36] <Cyrus25801> soundray: sorry i was away and haven't been reading the wohole time
[09:36] <DirkGently> k...i'm new too...i did have the same prob u did, but cant remember how i fixed it
[09:36] <soundray> stephan21: also, run a 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' so you see any problems with your USB connection. I usually have to reset the ipaq in the cradle 8 or 10 times until it works properly
[09:36] <soundray> Cyrus25801: that's just rude
[09:37] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, or alternatively you can install ext3 drivers on windows so you can write to the linux partition in windows instead of the other way around
[09:37] <DirkGently> am sure its something to do with the right click menu
[09:37] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: ntfs back :) Works, but I get that warning always... It is strange because I've checked (hopefully) all. But it works ;) Thanks for your help. I see you have some major problems, but this is far from my expertize sorry...
[09:37] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, the ext3 drivers on windows is a far safer bet
[09:37] <LycoLoco> FrenKy: which warninng?
[09:38] <LycoLoco> haha, thanks FrenKy, I'll get it figured out
[09:38] <CyberCod> bruenig... so i got that to work correctly, but all the files still belong to the "root" group
[09:38] <mikejanssen> is 'sudo apt-get upgrade' the way to do an update check on installed apps? if not, what command is it?
[09:38] <AmaroqWolf> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4917/
[09:38] <bruenig> CyberCod, oh sudo chown -R username:username file
[09:38] <CyberCod> mikejanssen sudo apt-get update
[09:38] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: i dont run xp anymore but still have a drv with allot of info on it that i dont have space for on any other drv.
[09:38] <mikejanssen> doesnt that just update repositories?
[09:38] <Cyrus25801> so backup and reformat is a no no
[09:38] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: http://www.ntfs-3g.org/support.html#fuse26
[09:38] <soundray> mikejanssen: yes, it does, but it's an essential step
[09:39] <eisma> I've been messing with my panels, now when i minimize windows they go no where, how do i get that back?
[09:39] <CyberCod> bruenig... by username:username   is that both going to be the target user?
[09:39] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, it seems like you could slowly move files over, and then resize clearing up space for another partition, and then adding more, then resize
[09:39] <DirkGently> thats hiding the panels
[09:39] <DirkGently> instead of minimising
[09:39] <FrenKy> LycoLoco: :)
[09:39] <mandrill> Cyrus: I've got the same problem, though I'm trying to do it over a network.
[09:39] <soundray> mikejanssen: opinions vary, but I keep my system updated with update-notifier and update-manager these days
[09:40] <stephan21> soundray: i see no problem....just that error from earler
[09:40] <bruenig> AmaroqWolf, what is with line 15?
[09:40] <Ferret> mikejanssen: The usual way is apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade --dry-run
[09:40] <DirkGently> panle properties?
[09:40] <eisma> DirkGently im not hiding panels, im minimizing my windows, and i have o way to restore them
[09:40] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: how do i do that without loosing data (resizing)
[09:40] <Ferret> mikejanssen: removing the --dry-run if you actually want to do ti
[09:40] <DirkGently> panel*
[09:40] <MichaelKthx> wth
[09:40] <MichaelKthx> sudo: aslamixer: command not found
[09:40] <bruenig> AmaroqWolf, oh and as I think soundray pointed out before, the reason you can't get xmms-midi is because it is edgy only so it doesn't matter what the sources.list says
[09:40] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, you can resize ntfs
[09:40] <CyberCod> DirkGently, hows the detective business coming along? interrogate any table legs lately?
[09:40] <DirkGently> yeah i know....but the panels behaviour seem to hide when u minimise
[09:40] <DirkGently> lol cod
[09:41] <Ferret> MichaelKthx: alsamixer not aslamixer ;p
[09:41] <soundray> stephan21: is dccm running with your user permissions?
[09:41] <whadar> Does a default edgy installation is capable to mount squashfs? or something should be downloaded?
[09:41] <DirkGently> i am currently investigating shrodegers dog
[09:41] <AmaroqWolf> bruenig: okay, I'll upgrade. And... line 15 looks like line 16 got backspaced or something and stuck on the end.
[09:41] <bruenig> CyberCod, username:username is your username twice
[09:41] <whadar> downloaded = installed
[09:41] <DirkGently> since experiments with the cat are inconclusive
[09:41] <DirkGently> lol
[09:41] <bruenig> the username is also the group
[09:41] <stephan21> soundray: ok its working now :D
[09:42] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: ok but how (thanx for the help yesturday you disappeared before i could say so)
[09:42] <stephan21> soundray: do you always have to try it 8-10 times
[09:42] <yeniklasor> Is there any program like under MS windows DevC++ for linux?
[09:42] <soundray> CyberCod: check out 'man chown', it'll tell you that it's user:group (ubuntu has a group for each user by default)
[09:42] <Ferret> whadar: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and search for squash, I guess
[09:42] <bruenig> Cyrus25801, gparted can do it
[09:42] <soundray> stephan21: sometimes more, sometimes less
[09:42] <CyberCod> thanks bruenig... got it going properly
[09:43] <Ferret> whadar: As far as modules are concerned it certainly should have them if it has a squashfs-tools package
[09:43] <whadar> Ferret: how can i check whether the package is installed by default?
[09:43] <soundray> stephan21: I've pretty much given up on it. Hotsyncing a Palm is just as hairy btw ;)
[09:43] <eisma> anyone know how to add the system tray onto the panel?
[09:43] <Cyrus25801> bruenig: cool thanx
[09:43] <bruenig> eisma, right click on panel, select add to panel, and the applet is called notification area
[09:43] <stephan21> soundray: how do u know if its not working .....?
[09:43] <Ferret> whadar: You mean part of the default desktop installation?  Or specifically is it installed on your system?
[09:43] <yeniklasor> Dev-C++ --> KDevelop ??
[09:43] <AmaroqWolf> It looks okay in the file
[09:43] <soundray> stephan21: I keep the log window open in multisync

[09:54] <Gandalf> hi aLLz
[09:54] <where_the_beef> soundray, I still can't retrieve the package and packages.ubuntu.com still says it not exist

[09:55] <bruenig> sdac221x_, go to the other room, #ubuntu-effects
[09:55] <whadar> http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/base/ = the only default packages on a new installation?
[09:55] <L4J> im gonna go for 6.06... maybe that version will install
[09:55] <sdac221x_> bruenig:  i tried but it seems no one is there ?  not a single chat in the room
[09:55] <soundray> where_the_beef: well, then that's the problem. They are slow at the moment. Be patient and keep trying (or leave it till tomorrow)
[09:55] <bruenig> sdac221x_, there are 74 from my count

[09:56] <rigel> !mepis
[09:56] <yellow> hey guys, how can I find out the current/default profile that gnome-terminal or x-terminal-emulator runs in ?
[09:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mepis - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:56] <soundray> gravemind: is that a Video DVD?
[09:56] <where_the_beef> soundray, is there a mirror anywhere?
[09:56] <archangelpetro> when using ubuntu's sharing folders option.. why am i unable to read (and select to share) the files of a mounted drive? which i'm able to access through my normal user?
[09:56] <LjL> !mepis is <alias> distributions
[09:56] <ubotu> I'll remember that, LjL
[09:56] <where_the_beef> clear
[09:56] <donna> is there a command i can use to tell what model my motherboard is?
[09:56] <LycoLoco> donna: try lspci
[09:56] <gravemind> soundray: no, it's a mixed data/audio cd for a video game
[09:56] <Falstius> it seems like firefox with gmail open will take up 20-90% of my Pentium M cpu ... does anyone else have that problem or is it just the extensions I have installed? (google broswer sync, forecast fox, adblock)
[09:56] <sdac221x_> bruenig:  ill try at some other time when its more active.  thanks
[09:57] <Cyrus25801> has anyone here ever got beryl running like it should
[09:57] <smaake> #screwdriver -opencase
[09:57] <Catachan> On a random thought, probably an advanced one as well, is it possible to optimize the Ubuntu OS files to dispose of files that are unnessicary on my computer
[09:57] <soundray> where_the_beef: there are plenty of mirrors, but the critical one in this case is security.ubuntu.com probably. Be patient... see above
[09:57] <niek> Can anyone help me? I had a upgrade to ubuntu 7.04, but i want to downgrade to 6.10 but how?
[09:57] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801, ne
[09:57] <donna> lycoloco that doesnt help me, i need to know where to get the new bios
[09:57] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801, me*
[09:57] <LjL> gravemind: it looks like it's not really an ISO, though i've no idea why
[09:57] <bruenig> !downgrade | niek
[09:57] <ubotu> niek: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[09:57] <where_the_beef> soundray: ok.... *grumble*
[09:57] <sdac221x_> is xubuntu 7.04 out ?
[09:57] <soundray> gravemind: it'll be copy-protected. Look to see if anything in the .txt file makes sense
[09:57] <donna> it has info about the mobo, but doesnt say brand/model
[09:57] <Falstius> niek backup and reinstall.
[09:57] <xtknight> sdac221x_: not yet.  see #feisty+1
[09:57] <Cyrus25801> where_the_beef: how long did it tkae you and what system r u running
[09:57] <niek> Hm, But this version does really "suck"
[09:57] <niek> (A)
[09:58] <gravemind> LjL: maybe it's a cue bin, except it calls the bin "iso" and the cue "txt?"
[09:58] <where_the_beef> sdac221x_: no, unless you like alpha software
[09:58] <LycoLoco> donna: sorry, I don't know how you could go about finding that
[09:58] <niek> and i dont want to loose my data
[09:58] <bruenig> xubuntu at least from the past doesn't usually have much in the way of betas
[09:58] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801, 2 minutes, and that was to download beryl
[09:58] <DirkGently> 7.04 is a beta as far as i know
[09:58] <Falstius> niek:  that is why you backup before reinstalling.
[09:58] <niek> yeah it is
[09:58] <Cyrus25801> where_the_beef: and setup
[09:58] <niek> lol
[09:58] <Secion8> hello, Any recommendations for an spectrum analyzer for professional car audio tuning?
[09:58] <LjL> gravemind: well, you said you created it using a GNOME facility, no? if so i doubt that... but then i'm not familiar with GNOME. but i can hardly think it would create cue/bin
[09:58] <niek> But there is no way to downgrade? :(
[09:58] <soundray> !feisty
[09:58] <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
[09:58] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801: what setup? I installed and was running instantly
[09:58] <bruenig> niek, fresh install
[09:58] <soundray> DirkGently: alpha ^^
[09:58] <DirkGently> betas aint for me....gimme a stable release anyday
[09:59] <DirkGently> alpha huh? even earlier phase
[09:59] <archangelpetro> are people purposely ignoring me? or does nobody know?
[09:59] <Cyrus25801> where_the_beef: cool, what system do you have
[09:59] <ProN00b> my disks are not beeing shown in gnome anymore (no automount or something), what do i have to restart that they show again without rebooting ?
[09:59] <yeniklasor> Is ubuntu has a download manager, which allow resume download after rebooting computer (like flashget)
[09:59] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801: a cheapass one with a halfassed card :-\
[09:59] <niek> Hm, maybe somebody in #ubuntu+1 knows a downgrade tool? :D
[09:59] <soundray> archangelpetro: please repeat
[09:59] <unop> archangelpetro,  whats the matter?
[09:59] <gravemind> LjL: yeah I created it using gnome. I was wrong earlier, it's not "foobar.iso.txt", it's "foobar.iso.toc"
[10:00] <dperry> I'm having a bit of difficulty getting the ATI drivers to work with Edgy and an NForce3 based motherboard. Anyone have any experience with this?
[10:00] <Firenza> Im having a problem with the X server can anyone help
[10:00] <LjL> !downgrade | niek
[10:00] <ubotu> niek: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[10:00] <mandrill> can someone help me with samba please. Samba is running, the folders are shared, the user is set up, and yet it still doesn't work.
[10:00] <gravemind> LjL, it looks like a typical cue file
[10:00] <Cyrus25801> where_the_beef: what is the diffrence between beryl and glx(ai-glx)
[10:00] <where_the_beef> dperry: you want to use ati drivers with an nvidia system?
[10:00] <dperry> no
[10:00] <dperry> Well, my motherboard is nforce3 based
[10:00] <niek> Not supported but possible?
[10:00] <LjL> gravemind: *shrug* strikes me as weird, but
[10:00] <dperry> and I do have an ATI card
[10:00] <LjL> !bchunk | gravemind
[10:00] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801: beryl is a window manager that draws, moves, etc windows

[10:00] <penguinbrat> Hi all =)
[10:00] <yellow> hey guys, how can I find out the current/default profile that gnome-terminal or x-terminal-emulator runs in ?
[10:00] <archangelpetro> when i try to share a folder in my mount drive /media/drive/foldername I'm unable to find it when selecting that folder.. the owner of the file is root:myusergroup  ... but from my user i'm able to access the file, What user/group does sharing files use?
[10:01] <bruenig> yellow, .bashrc?
[10:01] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801: xgl is a replacement x server that supports 3d rendering
[10:01] <yeniklasor> Is ubuntu has a download manager, which allow resume download after rebooting computer (like flashget)
[10:01] <unop> donna,  hwinfo and lshw ought to detect it
[10:01] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801: and aiglx is an xorg function that does the same thing as xgl with less bugs
[10:01] <where_the_beef> try #beryl
[10:01] <Secion8> Any ideas on a professional audio spectrum analyzer for professional car audio tuning?
[10:01] <dperry> I have the ATI drivers installed, and they are detected
[10:02] <dperry> But DRI and 3d acceleration are not working
[10:02] <where_the_beef> yeniklasor - not 1, but several, none of which is as good as flashget, unfortunately
[10:02] <Firenza> How do install Nvidia drivers using the command line?
[10:02] <Secion8> I search google but keep coming up with windows soft
[10:02] <soundray> yeniklasor: if you don't get a reply, your question was poorly posed. Tip: proofread before you send it.
[10:02] <jordo23> Anyone here have TEAMSPEAK installed and working?
[10:02] <where_the_beef> !nvidia > Firenza
[10:02] <dperry> and I'm told it's because of an incompatibility with the agpgart module, nforce3 cards and kernel 2.6
[10:02] <Cyrus25801> where_the_beef: then i want to have a desktop that i can flip around etc. will beryl work and if not do you have experince with aiglx
[10:02] <mena> i had a problem with languge while using Xp and kubuntu
[10:02] <unop> yeniklasor,  arent there flashget like extensions for firefox?
[10:02] <niek> I Hate Impossible Things :p
[10:02] <mena> can some help me
[10:02] <archangelpetro> unop, soundray : when i try to share a folder in my mount drive /media/drive/foldername I'm unable to find it when selecting that folder.. the owner of the file is root:myusergroup  ... but from my user i'm able to access the file, What user/group does sharing files use?
[10:02] <mena>  :)
[10:02] <bruenig> flashget
[10:02] <where_the_beef> Cyrus25801, try asking in #beryl - those guys are the experts
[10:03] <soundray> archangelpetro: are you sharing via samba?
[10:03] <where_the_beef> basically, if you have edgy, it's easy. if you have dapper, it's anywhere from hard to impossible
[10:03] <Falstius> niek, it isn't impossible.  Just too difficult to be worth the effort.
[10:03] <yeniklasor> ok I will search for flashget extention
[10:03] <Cyrus25801> 
[10:03] <yeniklasor> firefox extention :)
[10:03] <where_the_beef> yeniklasor, careful - it doesn't do what you're looking for
[10:03] <MichaelKthx> should i just go back to windows and with for the next ubuntu to come out?
[10:04] <yellow> bruenig, there's no entry in .bashrc that has anything to do with x-terminal-emulator ?
[10:04] <archangelpetro> soundray, i tried to set samba up manually, but it didnt work (but 'sharing folders' u samba yes)
[10:04] <niek> But no matter how difficult it is, i don't want to loose my valueble data. 'cause This is really important data, and this version really sucks.
[10:04] <where_the_beef> niek: then *backup*
[10:04] <Falstius> niek: if the data is that valuable, all the better reason to make a backup.
[10:04] <yellowdart> Cyrus25801, if you're looking for info on installing beryl: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu
[10:04] <unop> archangelpetro,  well, the permissions on shares are down to two things -- permissions on the share and permissions on the directories/files .. in anycase you need to be authenticated properly to access them
[10:05] <Falstius> niek: and next time, make a separate partition for home so that a reinstall is simple (you don't have to format /home to reinstall)
[10:05] <unop> archangelpetro,  how are you accessing the share?
[10:05] <archangelpetro> unop, i'm not at the moment.. i'm trying to set the folder to be shareable..
[10:05] <MichaelKthx> should i just go back to windows and with for the next ubuntu to come out?
[10:05] <soundray> archangelpetro: samba normally decides whether to share the share based on the credentials it receives from the remote. Have you set up samba with smbpasswd?
[10:05] <yellow> Falstius,  in that case, do you still have to set the mount /home to that partition at setup ?
[10:06] <MichaelKthx> becuase people will yell at me if it has no dound
[10:06] <unop> archangelpetro,  i think the job is quite simple -- use the shares-admin utility to setup a share there
[10:06] <soundray> archangelpetro: if you're unsure, I'd suggest you revisit:
[10:06] <archangelpetro> unop, but in the nice little 'sharing folders' window that comes up from the admininstration menu  I cant select the folder i want
[10:06] <soundray> !samba > archangelpetro
[10:06] <archangelpetro> i set it all up..
[10:06] <archangelpetro> and it still didnt work
[10:06] <archangelpetro> lol
[10:06] <soundray> Gotta go, bye...
[10:07] <Cyrus25801> where_the_beef: something went wrong on my side. gaim hung. i want a desktop that i can flip etc. can beryl do that and if not have you setup aiglx before
[10:07] <MajorPayne> Since aptitude wants me to upgrade my kernel I think this would also be a good time to upgrade from i386 to i686, how do I go about doing that?
[10:07] <Firenza> When booting it says the X server isnt configured corrently when i check out the error its says Fatal error no moniter detected
[10:07] <ConstyXIV> !bcm43xx
[10:07] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:08] <unop> archangelpetro, errm, thats odd -- try launching shares-admin like this from a terminal - gksudo shares-admin
[10:08] <TexJoachim> now that the update bug is fixed, is it safe to update when one has the ubuntu provided nvidia drivers installed?
[10:08] <yeniklasor> I found Aria download manager. Is it good
[10:08] <mikemacd> what does this error mean when booting ubuntu live cd
[10:09] <mikemacd> [17179706.232000]  hdd: timeout waiting for DMA
[10:09] <archangelpetro> unop, that's the thing im talking about.. i cant select the folder i want to share (it just doesnt display the folders in that place )
[10:09] <whadar> squashfs and unionfs mounts are support by the kernel of dapper/edgy/feisty by default?
[10:09] <unop> archangelpetro,  whats the full name of the path under which these folders exist?
[10:09] <archangelpetro> unop, and now it keeps sharing my home directory Ffs.
[10:10] <archangelpetro> unop and i cant delete it
[10:10] <archangelpetro> /media/cerebro/lol/
[10:10] <unop> mikemacd, is it an old computer?
[10:10] <gravemind> LjL: for bchunk, what do I put for <basename>
[10:10] <LjL> gravemind, i haven't used it, it just know it's there ;)
[10:11] <gravemind> :)
[10:11] <LycoLoco> Could someone help me figure out what's wrong with my system? It hangs on boot - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2130232#post2130232 Any input woudl be appreciated
[10:11] <olmari> help :-(
[10:11] <unop> archangelpetro,  for the purposes of troubleshooting -- make a shortcut to that location in your home folder and try sharing that -- ln -s /media/cerebro/lol/ ~/lol/
[10:12] <olmari> ubuntu suddenlysees only 1 CPU while I have x2 atholn
[10:12] <kontingenz> hi, how can I start a single gnome-program with a different language than the systems-language?
[10:13] <archangelpetro> unop, samba is now TOTALLY uninstalled, but apparantly i'm still sharing my home directory..
[10:13] <archangelpetro> and each time F**king delete it.. and reopen share-admin... it's there again
[10:13] <gravemind> LjL ok - are there any different approaches to making an iso out of a file?
[10:13] <gravemind> I mean out of a ced
[10:13] <gravemind> cd
[10:13] <lupine_85> gravemind: music or data?
[10:13] <gravemind> lupine_85: mixed
[10:13] <HP_Vue> How can I install widgets w/o superkaramba?
[10:13] <olmari> story longer: there came some kernel updates, did those, X wouldn't start and said something about nvidia. I then removed nvidia-glx and then reinstalled them with "sudo aptitude -y update && sudo aptitude -y install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) nvidia-glx"
[10:14] <lupine_85> try dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path/to/iso.iso
[10:14] <gravemind> lupine_85: one track data, the rest audio
[10:14] <lupine_85> that might work, but it might only give you the data track
[10:14] <unop> archangelpetro,  if samba is not installed, you cant possibly be sharing that share -- and shares-admin is just a GUI frontend to the various file sharing services, dont trust the information you get there
[10:14] <archangelpetro> so why is it displaying incorrectly?
[10:14] <archangelpetro> surely it reads from smb.conf?
[10:14] <archangelpetro> That doesnt even exist anymore
[10:15] <cafuego_> gravemind: If there is an audio component, use 'cdrdao' ideally.
[10:15] <unop> archangelpetro,  are you sure that the share is a samba share -- and not an NFS one (or something else) ?
[10:15] <olmari> after that process manager (or what that is in english) shows only one CPU
[10:15] <cafuego_> gravemind: Mind you, that would create a cue/bin, not an iso.
[10:15] <kontingenz> anyone knows? how can I start a single gnome-program with a different language than the systems-language?
[10:15] <gravemind> cafuego: I want a duplicate of the actual cd so I can mount it, and play a video game without having the physical cd. There's no copy protection, it's an old game
[10:16] <gravemind> using the physical cd makes the cd drive noisy though
[10:16] <archangelpetro> unop, it's an nfs one.. but it wont let me delete it...
[10:16] <cafuego_> gravemind: Ah, 'cdrdao copy /dev/cdrom' should do the trick then.
[10:16] <gravemind> cafuego_: then can I mount it?
[10:16] <cafuego_> gravemind: that'll make a cue+bin, prompt to insert a new cd and burn it.
[10:16] <cafuego_> gravemind: No.
[10:16] <gravemind> cafuego: i don't have any blanks
[10:17] <cafuego_> gravemind: Well, you cna try an iso via the `dd' command you got given, but the audio components prolly won't work.
[10:17] <nikitis> Question:  In Ubuntu, if one updates the kernel through the built in updater.  Does one have to recompile the graphics Drivers again?  Or does he updater handle it?
[10:17] <gravemind> cafuego: ok
[10:17] <archangelpetro> unop, so.. Why is it sharing, in that share-admin crap.. and will not be deleted?
[10:18] <gravemind> cafuego: could I make two disk images, one for the data track, and the other for the music tracks? It should ideally be an audio disk image so the game thinks it's the cd
[10:18] <nikitis> Anybody know?
[10:18] <unop> archangelpetro, errm, i have no idea to be totally honest - is the share listed in /etc/exports ?
[10:18] <MajorPayne> aptitude wants me to upgrade my kernel, is there any way that I can upgrade to i686 while upgrading the kernel?
[10:18] <mikejanssen> hmm
[10:19] <MajorPayne> currently have i386
[10:19] <mikejanssen> will it mess up my vista install, if i change sizes? i wanna shrink vista, and give ubuntu more space
[10:19] <nikitis> Aysha, get beta
[10:19] <mikejanssen> like, will i corrupt anything?
[10:19] <archangelpetro> unop, yes it was
[10:19] <olmari> well... bevare... thatkernel update hosed my nvidia and after reinstalling nvidia I suddenly have only 1 CPU
[10:19] <nikitis> ?
[10:20] <unop> archangelpetro,  well ok, did you get any errors when deleting the share?
[10:20] <Aysha> My options are Linux IA32, LinuxAMD64/EM64T and FreeBSD.
[10:20] <olmari> I'd like to know how to get SMP kernelback or so
[10:20] <archangelpetro> unop, i removed /home/myusername from /etc/exports and now it doesnt display in shares-admin
[10:20] <HP_Vue> I need help w/ something that has nothing to do w/ ubuntu
[10:20] <jordo23> Does anyone know a Ubuntu package that lets you take video of your desktop?
[10:21] <mikejanssen> will it mess up my vista install, if i change sizes? i wanna shrink vista, and give ubuntu more space
[10:21] <gravemind> jordo23, there was one on digg a few days ago
[10:21] <mcphail> HP_Vue: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:21] <nikitis> mikejanssen, Does vista use ntfs still or a newer filesystem?
[10:21] <lupine_85> still ntfs
[10:21] <unop> archangelpetro,  cool, now you can create a new NFS share ..or if you want a samba/cifs one, install samba and try again
[10:21] <mikejanssen> ntfs...i believe
[10:21] <Aysha> So, which driver do I need? Linux IA32?
[10:21] <nikitis> if it uses ntfs still which I think it does, then you should be able to resize it with partition magic
[10:22] <archangelpetro> unop, thanks :)
[10:22] <mikejanssen> i wanna use gparted
[10:22] <mikejanssen> heh
[10:22] <mikejanssen> will that mess up?
[10:22] <nikitis> very possibly
[10:22] <nikitis> dunno
[10:22] <Falstius> mikejanssen: that's one of those situations where you really really want to have a good backup before doing anything.
[10:22] <mikejanssen> dang...
[10:22] <nikitis> never tried
[10:22] <patbam> helloes
[10:22] <mikejanssen> i dont have partition magic on vista
[10:22] <mikejanssen> just xp
[10:22] <nikitis> I don't think anyone has tried it yet
[10:22] <mikejanssen> i have tri-boot runnin.
[10:22] <Juhaz> mikejanssen, http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfsresize.html#vista

[10:23] <nnliu> hi, i have a USB speaker, and i've looked online but i can't seem to get them working
[10:23] <yaman> need help please during the amsn installation i have this error when i use make command ./configure: line 3052: /usr/lib/tkConfig.sh: No such file or directory
[10:24] <goban> in eclipse i hit commit for the CVS, but it didnt update the images, says there are no changes.  how do i make it commit them?
[10:24] <nikitis> linux needs better gps navigation support
[10:24] <comradeC> if I have another user account that I log into via a terminal in X, how do I make it so I can run applications on X like firefox, I can do that with root but not this user account
[10:25] <mikejanssen> well
[10:25] <unop> comradeC,  you can add commands into your ~/.xinitrc to have them run when you start an X session
[10:25] <mikejanssen> i resized vista, before i made my ubuntu partitions
[10:25] <mikejanssen> and everything still works fine
[10:25] <mikejanssen> wouldnt it be like that again?
[10:25] <yaman> please some one help me installing programs is too hard to me need help please during the amsn installation i have this error when i use make command ./configure: line 3052: /usr/lib/tkConfig.sh: No such file or directory
[10:26] <Falstius> yaman: why not use the amsn from the repository?
[10:26] <Cyrus25801> How do i write an iso to disk
[10:26] <unop> yaman,  its likely you havent made sure the prerequisites are met .. what dependencies does amsn need?
[10:26] <comradeC> unop I want to run things like firefox on another user besides the one that started the X session
[10:26] <Falstius> Cyrus25801: right click on it, select "write to disk"
[10:26] <unop> comradeC,  then add firefox into that users .xinitrc .. simple, no?
[10:27] <yaman> Falstius: what is  prerequisites
[10:27] <Cyrus25801> Falstius: now i see.thanx
[10:27] <comradeC> but I dont want it to autostart
[10:27] <comradeC> I want to be able to run it when I feel like it from a terminal under that username
[10:27] <unop> yaman, prerequisites - conditions to be met before you do something .. in this case, verify that all the packages that amsn depends on are installed first
[10:27] <comradeC> when I do it now it keeps refusing me
[10:27] <miza> also zB error    : Table 'MGS-Wiki.archive' doesn't exist
[10:28] <miza> aber die Tabelle heit nur "archive"
[10:28] <instabin> How do i recored a video of my desktop
[10:28] <Falstius> yaman: amsn docker imlib-base imlib11 sox tcltls
[10:28] <unop> comradeC,  maybe i dont understand you right -- let me verify - you want to log in as another user and start firefox from within a terminal in that session?
[10:28] <Falstius> yaman: those are determined automatically (and are based on my system so might not exactly match yours)
[10:28] <miza> sorry guys, wrong tab :-/
[10:28] <Aysha> Okay, back to my Nvidia driver. Do I need the one for 32bit?
[10:29] <steven_Office> anyone no of a good howto on setting up a mail sever start to finish and not just on install one witch I have done alread. Im lost after the installation
[10:29] <yaman> :'(
[10:29] <comradeC> the session is already started by user x, I have a user y that has different privledges that I want to be able to use to run certain gui apps in the already started x session
[10:29] <Falstius> yaman: If you don't have some special reason to install from source, just type "sudo apt-get install amsn" on the command prompt.
[10:29] <comradeC> however when I sudo into user y, it keeps refusing me to launch applications that use x
[10:30] <Charon> Good evening...
[10:30] <lupine_85> comradeC: that'd be because said user doesn't have permission to use X, or the DISPLAY variable is being lost
[10:30] <yaman> thank u every one
[10:30] <unop> comradeC,  errm, you mean get user Y to steal user X's applications and display them in his session?
[10:30] <lupine_85> try DISPLAY=:0 gnome-terminal and see if that works
[10:30] <LycoLoco> Anyone here that can help me with a problem? My machine doesn't wanna boot
[10:31] <comradeC> unop, not steal his, but run his own applications on user x's xserver
[10:31] <unop> comradeC,  i think if you use sudo -s then you should be able to launch GUI apps .. i believe the $DISPLAY variable is preserved then
[10:32] <unop> comradeC,  but it's better to launch GUI apps in this way -- gksudo gui_app_name

[10:34] <toddobryan> I've been trying to install the latest IBM version of the Java 1.5 SDK following the PPC instructions on the wiki's Java page.
[10:34] <bartek> heeh
[10:34] <toddobryan> Unfortunately, java-mpkg doesn't seem to recognize it.
[10:35] <toddobryan> It just came out Feb 1. I'm wondering if it's a known bug.
[10:35] <duffner> Anyone knows what is the difference between xubuntu and debian+xfce ?
[10:36] <ompaul> duffner, one is debian one is ubuntu both have xfce ..
[10:36] <Madpilot> duffner, xubuntu uses the Ubuntu repos, not the Debian ones. It's also got some specific tweaks that stock xfce+debian doesn't have - bits of polish
[10:36] <duffner> so xubuntu is better ?
[10:36] <ompaul> duffner, in a ubuntu channel you expect which answer?
[10:36] <LycoLoco> lnxmomo, unop, someothernick - any ideas?
[10:37] <ompaul> ;)
[10:37] <unop> LycoLoco,  hmm, doesnt look good -- but the last message you get there doesnt really relate to the problem -- it's also likely that the kernel is working behind the scenes doing something else -- have you tried waiting it out to see if anything else happens?
[10:37] <ompaul> !nickspam | nicegirL
[10:37] <ubotu> nicegirL: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages (see !Away for more details): use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently
[10:37] <amonbish> Hello
[10:37] <LycoLoco> unop: yeah, I waited for about 10 minutes or so

[10:37] <LycoLoco> unop: I can try again though, just leave it booting and see if it ever comes up
[10:37] <duffner> puh, if I ask somehwere else, they do not know ubuntu, so why not ask here, perhpas some have come here from debian and are not just new linux useres like me :-)
[10:37] <webmaren> my openoffice.org is broken

[10:38] <nnliu> hi, i have a USB speaker, and i've looked online but i can't seem to get them working
[10:38] <LycoLoco> unop: sure, just a few and I'll have them up for you
[10:39] <webmaren> it gets to the spalsh and then fixxles out after 2/3 of the way
[10:39] <Music_Shuffle> ompaul, sorry, I can't find it, so nevermind. I wanted the one that says !elaborate or whatever, you know?
[10:39] <skorp> hello, i have a question : how can i install the tea6300 module?
[10:39] <tuskernini> Question: NetworkManager applet lets me connect to wlan with key but not without key? why is that?
[10:40] <unop> tuskernini,  because it's quite silly to use wlan without a key -- it's almost never advised/done
[10:40] <sedrake> I installed Kmess but didnt like it and wanted to install Kopete instead but now Kopete wont start and I cant uninstall Kmess :(
[10:40] <tuskernini> unop, i know, at home i have a key, and in the city we have a free one, i can not connect to the "open" one but i can connect to mine ofcourse and to a freinds which has a key
[10:41] <LycoLoco> unop: the problem is that there arent any logs being written when I boot - the most recent time in all 3 of those logs is immediately before it shut down the last tiem it worked
[10:41] <Pooky> I have an issue in gnome sometimes, where it loses track of the windows
[10:41] <LycoLoco> but I'm putting them on pastebin anywy, unop
[10:41] <Pooky> is there a way I can restart that process?
[10:41] <tuskernini> unop, that means i can only connect to a network, needing a key? should not be like that hey?
[10:42] <Pooky> like, my window switcher is empty, and I can't "alt-tab" between apps
[10:42] <unop> LycoLoco,  youch .. well, i dunno what else to suggest except verify that all the harddrives are detected in the BIOS and that DMA is enabled on them -- if you can boot into another OS and verify the partitions exist, etc
[10:42] <toddobryan> Is anybody on a PowerPC machine?
[10:42] <toddobryan> Or is there someplace where such people are more likely?
[10:43] <ompaul> toddobryan, I am not, however we do know where there are lots of resources ask the actual question
[10:43] <tuskernini> !apple
[10:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apple - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:43] <tuskernini> !mac
[10:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:43] <Aysha> Well, crummy. What's an X server?
[10:43] <LycoLoco> unop: yes, I'm in Windows right now, with everything working perfectly, all hard drives and DVD drives, and I've never touched DMA so it should be enabled - honestly, the ONLY thing that changed was what I said I changed in the post :-\
[10:43] <unop> tuskernini,  well, i could suggest this (it may not work) .. edit the /etc/network/interfaces file and use a blank WEP/WPA key and then restart networking like this - sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[10:44] <toddobryan> Already did. Tried following the PPC instructions for installing the latest IBM Java 1.5 SDK, but make-jpkg doesn't seem to recognize it.
[10:44] <PG> hi, perhaps someone could advise me. I installed Ubuntu 6.10 to an existing partition that has Windows XP installed to it - I split 15GB from the partition using the partition manager via the Ubuntu Live install and created a seperate 500mb swap partition both of which I selected to use for the ubuntu installation. Everything went well and I can still boot into Windows XP, however, Im not prompted on which OS I'd like to boot into I still boot
[10:44] <webmaren> any suggestions on how to fix
[10:44] <tuskernini> unop, aha... but then the network manager will not work untill i change it back hey?
[10:44] <tuskernini> unop, thanks i will try that sometime...
[10:45] <unop> tuskernini,  errm, it probably will let you use it when you need to connect back to the secured network
[10:45] <tuskernini> i am at homw now...
[10:45] <ecelis> webmaren: is grub installed?
[10:45] <Aysha> Okay, how do I turn off the X server?
[10:45] <webmaren> ecelis... maybe
[10:45] <fips> hi
[10:45] <unop> tuskernini,  IIRC, the network-admin lets you create profiles you can use -- you can create a profile for the secured network at home and another one for the unsecured wireless one at work -- and then switch between themw hen you need to
[10:46] <webmaren> woot i fixed it nevermind guys
[10:46] <fips> anyone here who knows with which options (to configure) and which layout apache2 is compiled for ubuntu?
[10:46] <LycoLoco> unop: pastebin is taking forever - do you mind if I just upload them to my webhost?
[10:46] <tuskernini> unop, aha that is also a good idea thanks.. but then i will not need network manager applet...
[10:46] <wrox> hello
[10:47] <ompaul> Aysha, the easiest way is to install "bum" and then use that program "boot up manager" from the system adminstration menu to turn off gdm if you want to restart it "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[10:47] <zorba64> Aysha, CTRL ALT F1...log in..then sudo /etc.init.d/gdm stop
[10:47] <wrox> how can I find out, which package a certain file on the filesystem belongs to?
[10:47] <unop> tuskernini,  i'm not so familiar with the netman applet -- maybe it lets you switch profiles, maybe not -- but yea, you'll know what to do :)
[10:47] <fips> i wanted to compile it without that much modules builtin
[10:47] <zorba64> Aysha, CTRL ALT F1...log in..then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[10:47] <|Jason8|> Hey guys, is it a bad idea to upgrade from Breezy to Edgy without upgrading to Dapper?
[10:47] <PG> hello? no suggestions?
[10:47] <ompaul> |Jason8|, yes
[10:48] <tuskernini> unop, thank you for your time
[10:48] <LycoLoco> unop: http://lycoloco.thephlogiston.com/files/ - they're all in there
[10:48] <unop> LycoLoco, sure, but i dunno how much old logs aer going to help -- go ahead tho, i'll have a look in them
[10:48] <Xenguy> wrox: dpkg -S /usr/bin/filename
[10:48] <alecjw> |Jason8|, yep. never skiop a release. upgrade to dapper, thjen to edgy. or oyu can reinstall
[10:48] <|Jason8|> ompaul, okay, thanks.  I'll just format it.
[10:48] <ompaul> |Jason8|, if you did any customising it is also a bad idea to try to upgrade just back up the home dir
[10:48] <alecjw> |Jason8|, i assume that you know that reinstallign will lose all of your data and installed programs?
[10:49] <wrox> Xenguy: thanks!
[10:49] <miza> Hi All!

[10:50] <webmaren> err-- shudders
[10:50] <Herpes> i need a good multi profile wifi manager
[10:50] <|Jason8|> alecjw, yeah.  I just started playing with ubuntu about two weeks ago, so no major losses :p
[10:50] <fips> anyone here who knows with which options (to configure) and which layout apache2 is compiled for ubuntu?
[10:50] <unop> LycoLoco,  can you verify that the last message logged in http://lycoloco.thephlogiston.com/files/messages was about the last time you rebooted?
[10:50] <fips> i wanted to compile it without that much modules builtin
[10:50] <wrox> package libgl1-mesa-glx contains file /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 ---> i've been playing with nvidia / fglrx drivers, and this file isn't there, and reinstalling the package doesn't help! anybody knows what to do?
[10:51] <LycoLoco> unop: yeah, that's the last time that I rebooted before I couldn't boot again, this morning at 4:40
[10:51] <tuskernini> Herpes, gnome network manager is quite good
[10:51] <AmaroqWolf> dist-upgrade isn't working for me. It doesn't download anything. It says 0 packages to download, etc.
[10:51] <tuskernini> Herpes, nm-applet
[10:52] <miza> well ...
[10:52] <miza> anybody?
[10:52] <Herpes> tuskernini: thanks
[10:52] <ompaul> Amaranth, so the question is have you done sudo apt-get update after changing /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:53] <wrox> anybody knows where to look when reinstallation of a package doesn't bring a missing file back to the filesystem? (the package does contain this file)
[10:53] <AmaroqWolf> ompaul, were you talking to me just now?
[10:53] <ompaul> miza, ehh if you click on system adminstration I think you will see something about managing logins - been a long time since breezy can't remember the menu structe
[10:53] <unop> LycoLoco,  looks like the case in the syslog file too -- and dmesg doesnt show anything out of the ordinary - errm, have you tried booting into single-user/recovery mode? does that work?
[10:53] <jrib> wrox: what file in what package in what version of ubuntu?
[10:53] <nnliu> can any1 here help me set up some usb speakers?
[10:53] <ompaul> Amaranth,  so the question is have you done sudo apt-get update after changing /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:54] <adaptr> wrox: you need one of its dependencies, as this is where the file is instead
[10:54] <ompaul> doh
[10:54] <fips> anyone here who knows with which options (to configure) and which layout apache2 is compiled for ubuntu?
[10:54] <fips> i wanted to compile it without that much modules builtin
[10:54] <ompaul> AmaroqWolf, yes
[10:54] <miza> ompaul: maybe you remember the config file?
[10:54] <AmaroqWolf> lol
[10:54] <wrox> jrib: file: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1, package: libgl1-mesa-glx, distro: Edgy
[10:54] <LycoLoco> unop: yes, I have tried recovery mode, and no, it doesn't help - that's how I got the picture in my post on the forums of where it was stalling
[10:54] <jrib> fips: read debian/rules of the source package for apache2
[10:54] <ompaul> miza, ehh no - do it by menu
[10:54] <Xenguy> wrox: are you running dapper?
[10:54] <Aysha> Well, damn. It said I didn't have something.
[10:54] <wrox> Xenguy: Edgy
[10:54] <AmaroqWolf> ompaul: I'm doing a sudo apt-get update now, just to double check
[10:55] <fips> jrib: ok thx
[10:55] <wrox> just wen't through hell installing ATI drivers for 2.6.19.1

[10:55] <ompaul> miza, system ->  admin -> login window -- check for that
[10:55] <Xenguy> wrox: on dapper, that file you mentioned is a symlink to another file
[10:55] <AmaroqWolf> ompaul, I get an error when doing the upgrade, but I didn't think it would matter since it's just an error with some other key, I think.
[10:56] <andre> hey folks
[10:56] <Xenguy> wrox: on my system anyway
[10:56] <LycoLoco> unop: I have no older kernels, but I have a newer kernel (one I don't use because I forgot to include the SATA drivers) - I'm pretty sure I remember trying that one and getting the exact same response
[10:56] <unop> phiqtion,  you mean the contents of /etc/resolv.conf?
[10:56] <Aysha> LB something? I'm trying to find the error log. Where do those drop?
[10:56] <phiqtion> unop: i guess so
[10:56] <wrox> Xenguy: sorry! it's /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
[10:56] <jrib> wrox: hmm does   dpkg-divert --list '*libGL*'   list anything?

[10:57] <SDBolts21n56> why is ubuntu using UUID for drive configureation?
[10:57] <Deeival> Could anyone tell me how to create a new subfolder in gconf-editor?
[10:57] <unop> phiqtion,  the resolvconf utility recreates that file on each reboot .. try uninstalling the resolvconf package to see what happens -- if it depends on too many other packages, dont uninstall it .. let us know what happens then
[10:57] <jrib> !uuid | SDBolts21n56
[10:57] <ubotu> SDBolts21n56: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[10:57] <jrib> SDBolts21n56: note that the old way will still work

[10:57] <Herpes> how can i get linux-kernel 2.6.20?
[10:58] <unop> Herpes,  what version of ubuntu? edgy?
[10:58] <Herpes> yes
[10:58] <LycoLoco> unop: yep - it's what I've exclusively used for the last three weeks since installing. The ONLY problems I've had have been this and when I tried to install the printer, which I fixed as stated in the forum post
[10:58] <unop> Herpes,  the latest version available to edgy is 2.6.17 .. 2.6.20 is for feisty
[10:59] <andre> adept is acting really funny for me recently...  it likes to hang at 99% complete...  any ideas?
[10:59] <fips> jrib: can you tell me the path to that file, please? i don't find it!
[10:59] <wrox> thanks #ubuntu gurus, you're doing a great job
[10:59] <Herpes> unop: do i add the fiesty sources and do a dist-upgrade?
[10:59] <Herpes> so*
[10:59] <jrib> fips: do you know how to obtain the source package for apache2?
[10:59] <GeekChick|> Anyone know the solution to the LiveCD freezing during boot process?
[10:59] <unop> LycoLoco,  errm, well, i'm running out of ideas -- what i would do if i were you is boot up with a knoppix CD - chroot into this install and try installing an older kernel release to see if that jelps
[11:00] <unop> helps*
[11:00] <LycoLoco> unop: how difficult is that?
[11:00] <ompaul> Herpes, that is a ubuntu+1 question and that is unstable software
[11:00] <fips> jrib: oh, i'd obtained it from the apache website...
[11:00] <fips> jrib: so: no? ;)
[11:00] <fips> mom
[11:00] <ompaul> !enter
[11:00] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:00] <jrib> fips: right but to get the source package for the .deb in ubuntu you would do  'apt-get source PACKAGE_NAME_HERE'
[11:00] <unop> Herpes,  errm no, dont do that - you'll just wreck your edgy install -- either upgrade to fesity or stay put with the current release .. and why do you need to have the latest version anyway?
[11:00] <SDBolts21n56> jrib, Thanks for another command to find information.  that is the best and easiest i have found.
[11:00] <sedrake> what does this error mean when trying to startk Kopete: kopete: ERROR: KUniqueApplication: Can't setup DCOP communication.
[11:00] <sedrake> ??
[11:01] <SDBolts21n56> But my question is Why are we using UUID?
[11:01] <jrib> SDBolts21n56: did you see the link ubotu mentioned?
[11:01] <nopcode> hey
[11:01] <nopcode> how do i change my keymap?
[11:01] <unop> LycoLoco,  its not difficult really -- the only trick is mounting these partitions into the chroot -- let me see if i can get you a howto
[11:01] <Poromenos1> is there a way to autologon on bootup (to start ktorrent and other programs)?
[11:01] <ompaul> SDBolts21n56, that is way beyond the scope of this channel - if that link does not explain it then please head to the busy "sounder mailing list"
[11:01] <nnliu> when i try to test the USB thing i get audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=music: Could not get/set settings from/on resource.
[11:01] <SDBolts21n56> jrib,  oh i will check it out
[11:02] <bruenig> Poromenos1, are you on kde?
[11:02] <LycoLoco> that'd be awesome, unop - I really appreciate you taking time to help me with this really screwy situation
[11:02] <Poromenos1> bruenig: gnom
[11:02] <GeekChick|> Anyone know the solution to the LiveCD freezing during boot process? I'm trying to install on another laptop of mine.
[11:02] <Poromenos1> e
[11:02] <yommb> How can I set a folder on my HD as a synaptic or aptitude source ?
[11:02] <bruenig> Poromenos1, then just go to system>preferences>sessions, from there go to the startup tab and put ktorrent for the command
[11:02] <jrib> fips: once you issue that command, you'll end up with a directory that starts with apache2*.  Inside you will find another directory called "debian" and inside that the "rules" file.  Note that you may need apache2-common's source package, I'm not sure
[11:02] <Deeival> How do I create a subfolder in gconf-editor?
[11:02] <unop> nopcode,  you can use the  setxkbmap  utility
[11:02] <Poromenos1> bruenig: don't i have to log on for that?
[11:02] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: what's it doing when it freezes?
[11:02] <miza> ompaul: my system speaks german, so it's the 'login manger' (how I'd call it) in the controlpanel?
[11:02] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, showing its pretty orange bar moving back and forth.
[11:03] <bobi> hi there people, I need help
[11:03] <Bsims> Anyone know if the disk usage like on the Western Digital external HD's works with linux
[11:03] <bruenig> Poromenos1, you want these things to launch before you log in?
[11:03] <bobi> I was installing from the minimal cd, but there was a blackout at my place
[11:03] <Elettra> Ciao
[11:03] <Bsims> er light
[11:03] <Poromenos1> bruenig: at bootup
[11:03] <Poromenos1> bruenig: ideally, it would autologin
[11:03] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: are there any other options at boot? maybe not using the default boot option, but a recovery option? I don't remember what the options are for the boot CD
[11:03] <Poromenos1> when booting up
[11:03] <fips> jrib: thank you, that should suffice for me! :)
[11:03] <Poromenos1> well, after booting up
[11:03] <jhn> hi i wonde rif anyone can help me with firewall and webcam getting the two to work together
[11:03] <bruenig> Poromenos1, you can setup autologin and then have ktorrent start when the session starts
[11:04] <bobi> when the computer shut off, I was in the final stage of the software install
[11:04] <BuckWild> okay, I'm trying to get an HDTV to work with twinview.  I have my original monitor on VGA, and the HD hooked up to DVI.  First of all, I'm going to need two different resolutions for each set, is this possible, and how do I start doing this?
[11:04] <Aysha> Where do I find Ubuntu packages?
[11:04] <bobi> the installation said cleaning up...
[11:04] <Poromenos1> bruenig: ah, autologin... i must have missed that, thanks :)
[11:04] <Aysha> All my friend did was gave me the disc
[11:04] <bobi> now how do i rescue that installation?
[11:04] <bruenig> !repositories | Aysha
[11:04] <ubotu> Aysha: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:04] <unop> LycoLoco,  do you have a rough idea about your disk layout? how many partitions and which corresponds to which mount point?
[11:04] <tomaczec> hi
[11:04] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, i used the default option, i also tried changing the VGA resolution. still freezes.
[11:05] <jrib> fips: np, the best way to do what you want (compile with less modules) is probably to edit the source package and then rebuild it.  See http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[11:05] <LycoLoco> unop: pretty good. I know that ubuntu is installed on HDB (not sure which partition), XP is installed on SDA, and HDA is my music
[11:05] <Poromenos1> bruenig: do you perhaps have any idea how to do that with freenx?
[11:05] <gubluntu> anyone know how can i send an email attachment via the command line?
[11:05] <YuceL> Last kernel version for Intel CPU smp please?
[11:05] <unop> LycoLoco,  can i assume you have 2 partitions for your ubuntu install -- one for / another for swap ?
[11:05] <bruenig> Poromenos1, system>administration>login window
[11:05] <LycoLoco> unop: yep, exactly
[11:06] <Poromenos1> bruenig: ah, i see it now, thanks :)
[11:06] <Poromenos1> though i doubt it will work with freenx
[11:06] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: have you tried any other live CDs that work on that laptop?
[11:06] <shoumik> Hi, i need some help on JRE
[11:06] <bruenig> Poromenos1, if you run gdm, then it will
[11:06] <bruenig> freenx is just an x server I thought
[11:06] <Poromenos1> bruenig: i think freenx creates a new session and can't open local ones
[11:07] <gharz> guys, i wanna install my intel pro wireless 2100... anybody can help me how to do it... i'm getting hopeless.
[11:07] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, knoppix boots fine, and lots of other cds boot fine.
[11:07] <Poromenos1> bruenig: i'm a bit hazy on the details, but i'm pretty sure it doesn't connect on local sessions
[11:07] <bruenig> Poromenos1, I think it will work
[11:07] <GeekChick|> DOS bootable cds boot fine too, LycoLoco
[11:07] <Poromenos1> bruenig: i will try it and report back :)
[11:07] <Poromenos1> thanks a lot!
[11:07] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: ok, I'm trying to find a screenshot of the initial boot screen for the ubuntu live CD, that way I can see exactly which options you have on boot
[11:07] <BuckWild> does anyone have any experience with twinview on ubuntu?
[11:08] <LycoLoco> BuckWild: I do
[11:08] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: only that i couldn't ever get it to work :P
[11:08] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, boot livecd / install, boot hard drive, and a couple others
[11:08] <ompaul> !bootoptions | GeekChick|
[11:08] <ubotu> GeekChick|: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[11:08] <jhn> anyone know how ot unblock ports in amsn for  awebcam?
[11:08] <BuckWild> LycoLoco: from what I understand now, you can't span desktops if you want two different resolutions, correct?
[11:08] <Poromenos1> jhn: you need to do it on your router
[11:09] <Pntkl> hey
[11:09] <Nighteye> yo
[11:09] <amonbish> Hi
[11:09] <YuceL> What is the Newest kernel version for Intel CPU-smp?
[11:09] <Pntkl> ??
[11:09] <amonbish> fun
[11:09] <jhn> got a cable modem Poromenos1
[11:09] <Nighteye> good
[11:09] <BuckWild> LycoLoco: also, my second "monitor" is an HDTV, is there somewhere that lists common HDTV resolutions/frequencies?
[11:09] <Poromenos1> jhn: is it usb or ethernet?
[11:09] <LycoLoco> BuckWild: I think you can, at least as long as you're using the newest driver that nvidia has, but I know that you can't have two monitors running the same resolution with different frequencies
[11:09] <jhn> ethernet
[11:09] <LycoLoco> BuckWild: that I don't know, have you checked wikipedia?
[11:09] <Poromenos1> jhn: go to its configuration page and set up a redirect
[11:09] <Poromenos1> jhn: see the router manual, it should explain it pretty well
[11:09] <kriel> i've got an error message when i'm trying to do a >make         'cp:cannot stat '{*.c,in-tree/{Makefile,Kconfig},compat.h}': No such file or directory       can somebody put that into english?
[11:09] <BuckWild> could try I guess, my TV is 1080i, it worked in XP
[11:10] <LycoLoco> BuckWild: yeah, as far as I nkow, it shouldn't be a probelm
[11:10] <LycoLoco> wow I can't type today
[11:10] <bobi> &quit
[11:10] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: what brand is it?
[11:10] <unop> LycoLoco,  ok, quite simple then .. boot into knoppiz (the ubuntu liveCD could do it too) .. mount your / partition (e.g. mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/ubuntu) ..  mount the dev and proc file systems in that location - sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/ubuntu/proc; sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/ubuntu/proc ... chroot into it .. sudo chroot /mnt/ubuntu
[11:10] <BuckWild> poromenos1: sharp, aquos 32"
[11:10] <lnxmomo> hi, i have deleted my bottom gnome panel recently and now i want it back with th ability to minimise my icons onto it. Can anyone help me?
[11:10] <LycoLoco> unop: ok, I'll bookmark that
[11:11] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: ah... i have a bravia that should be 1080p which i couldn't get to more than 720
[11:11] <BuckWild> hmm
[11:11] <Poromenos1> 1930x1080 must be very nice :P
[11:11] <lnxmomo> anyone?
[11:11] <BuckWild> poromenos: where'd you get the resolution list?
[11:11] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: that was under xp btw
[11:11] <bobby_>  i want a monitor that can handle that res
[11:11] <bobby_> :P
[11:11] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: I'm searching teh forums, trying to see if anyone has the same problems
[11:11] <unop> LycoLoco,  in the chroot -- verify you have network connectivity and whatnot -- ping a few hostnames on the internet -- if you can -- run  sudo aptitude update  .. and then go on to install an older kernel how you normally would
[11:11] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: erm, not sure, i think it autodetected it?
[11:11] <Poromenos1> anyway, it doesn't really matter, i just envy you :p
[11:11] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, when i first got in here i gave a link.
[11:12] <nopcode> re
[11:12] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: I'm sorry, I missed that - could you paste it for me again?
[11:12] <BuckWild> poromenos: I typically run one mode under 1080i, because windows at least used to stretch the screen beyond the actual boundaries or something and you couldn't see the close button, etc.
[11:12] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=330118
[11:12] <nopcode> my keymap ends in -nodeadkeys but the dead keys are still dead
[11:12] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: ah, hmm
[11:12] <nopcode> any ideas?
[11:12] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: interlaced doesn't look that good though, does it
[11:12] <BuckWild> nah, not particularly
[11:12] <BuckWild> it hurts your eyes
[11:13] <Poromenos1> agree
[11:13] <BuckWild> the next mode under is a lot better, actually usable
[11:13] <Poromenos1> 32" screen = sweet, though
[11:13] <Poromenos1> yeah, very nice
[11:13] <BuckWild> any downloadable HD content is 720p anyway
[11:13] <shoumik> Hi, i need some help downloading JRE v5.0 update 11
[11:13] <Poromenos1> BuckWild: agree

[11:14] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|:  ok, so you're stuck on the screen with the orange bar scrolling across the screen?
[11:14] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, no. it freezes during the ubuntu livecd of the windows "loading bar"
[11:14] <ritchiee>  Hey guys, I recently upgraded from ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) to Edgy.  Basically changed /etc/apt/sources.list and ran apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade ; apt-get dist-upgrade.  I then rebooted, and when it boots back up and gets to where the login manager is usually, its a blank black screen.  So I ctrl-alt-f1 out of that to a console and run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, reconfigure it.  Run startx and it works fine, so I reboot again, and the same thing hap
[11:14] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, the bar stops moving. and sits there forever
[11:14] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: ok
[11:15] <nopcode> nevermind i found it
[11:15] <unop> ritchiee, what happens when you type this at the console -- sudo gdm
[11:15] <Jowi> does anyone know if there's a european server for irc.gimp.org? I can't connect to it. and http://ircd.gimp.org is "sparse" on information to say the least.
[11:15] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: you said you tried disabling "quiet splash" modes? (forgive me if I ask stupid questions - I'm going on too little sleep today)
[11:15] <unop> ritchiee,  or "sudo kdm" if you use the KDM instead
[11:15] <shoumik> hi i want to play a game on my computer, which is online, when i try to play it, it says that i need JRE v5.0 update 11. When i look at synaptic it says i already have JRE. What do i do?
[11:16] <Poromenos1> haha wtf
[11:16] <GeekChick|> LycoLoco, no. i havent. i just tried different VGA modes
[11:16] <Poromenos1> my gmail checker works under linux without any changes
[11:16] <Poromenos1> yay for portability
[11:16] <LycoLoco> shoumik: you need to get the JRE plguin for firefox
[11:16] <ritchiee> unop, it asks for a password..
[11:16] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: ok, check out this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1960025&postcount=4
[11:16] <shoumik> where can i find that?
[11:16] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: try that and see if it gives you any kind of message that would give us clues
[11:16] <GeekChick|> k, ill do thast.
[11:16] <Zarephath> anyone tried the newbie docs? I installed them...found a binary file called newbiedoc...it errors when running it..says to issue basename --help?
[11:16] <unop> Jowi,  maybe this irc.eu.gimp.org  ( irc.eu.gimp.org.	80	IN	A	130.239.18.157 )
[11:17] <GeekChick|> brb. i stupidly used IRC on the laptop in question, LycoLoco :)
[11:17] <shoumik> lycolyco: where can i find that?
[11:17] <unop> ritchiee,  thats your password it is asking for -- enter it and see what happens
[11:17] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|: haha, oh no! I'll be around when you get back if you wanna try it
[11:17] <ritchiee> unop, it returns me back to a prompt.
[11:17] <LycoLoco> shoumik: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/faqs/firefox-linux.html#install-java or you should be able to search synaptic for javaplugin and find it
[11:17] <Jowi> unop, thanks will try it.
[11:17] <fips> jrib: how do i build this source? 'apt-get build-dep apache2-2.0.55' doesn't work
[11:18] <unop> ritchiee,  ok .. what does this do  CTRL+ALT+F9 ?
[11:18] <ritchiee> unop, nothing.
[11:18] <ritchiee> unop, if i do ctrl+alt+f1 it goes to the blank screen

[11:18] <fil_> Ca existe un log de stats de ET sous linux?
[11:18] <shoumik> it still dont work
[11:18] <jrib> fips: apt-get build-dep PACKAGE_NAME  gets you the dependencies to build it.  Then you can use dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b to build the deb
[11:19] <unop> ritchiee,  yea, but i'm looking to see if you can find the GDM tty .. how about CTRL+ALT+F10 ?
[11:19] <finalbeta> that's the big problem with repositories, outdated at launch
[11:19] <lnxmomo> i want to change my pannel into something nicer looking, can anyone give me a site explains/ have these things?

[11:20] <ckern> I  installed Dapper with the alternate install CD.  I don't think it asked me for a username and password.  When it restarted after installation, it booted up but could not start X.  I need to log in to a tty, but I have no idea about a username and password
[11:20] <jrib> fips: use tha package name (apache2)
[11:20] <shoumik> of what?
[11:20] <LycoLoco> shoumik: also, do a complete removal of mozilla - you don't need that browser if you have firefox
[11:20] <LycoLoco> shoumik: of both firefox and mozilla
[11:20] <unop> fil_, probablement -- mais, si vous voulez aide en francais -- allez a #ubuntu-fr

[11:20] <Jowi> unop, irc.se.gimp.org seems to be dead
[11:20] <shoumik> should i search for all files containing firefox in the name and then delete them?
[11:21] <ritchiee> unop, KDM.

[11:23] <eXistenZ> jrib, I want the latest version
[11:23] <ritchiee> unop, this is real odd, i think it must be reading a diff config file or something, because i typed killall kdm and it was running (so it killed it) so kdm is running when i tab to it ctrl+alt+f1 it goes to a blank screen instead of console so i assume its running on there  just not configured right
[11:23] <iturk> hey guys i am using xfig to draw. But i am using touchpad so i dont have a third mouse botton. Is it possible to simulate it using some other key?
[11:23] <ritchiee> unop, which is odd as i dpkg-reconfigured the xserver then rebooted,
[11:24] <jrib> eXistenZ: then rebuild the source package or compile from scratch
[11:24] <shoumik> LycoLyco: Should I then redownload Firefox when it's finished downloading?
[11:24] <eXistenZ> jrib, rebuild source package?
[11:24] <ritchiee> omg
[11:24] <ritchiee> unop, i killall kdm, thne i run sudo kdm and it pops up the login box!! :)
[11:24] <ritchiee> unop, how come it doesn't work on boot though?
[11:24] <exa34> Is anyone here an expert on using dmraid, or know how to install linux on a fake RAID configuration
[11:24] <jrib> eXistenZ: add the deb-src line for the package version you want, then:  apt-get -b source packagename
[11:24] <Jowi> unop, well, seems like my problem will have to wait until another day :) thanks for trying
[11:25] <Ademan> hey i was just thinking, vista has that "ReadyBoost" or whatever where they use a flash drive as swap, is it possible to format a usb stick as linux-swap so that linux could do the same thing?
[11:25] <unop> aeromix,   ls -1 | perl -lne '/^(\d)$/; print $1 if ($1 > 3)'
[11:25] <eXistenZ> jrib, Do you know a good packaging guide?
[11:25] <shoumik> LycoLyco: Should I then redownload Firefox when it's finished downloading????/
[11:25] <jrib> eXistenZ: you'll need to make sure build-dependencies are satisfied
[11:25] <Ademan> eXistenZ: what are you wanting to do?
[11:25] <jrib> eXistenZ: help.ubuntu.com and the debian new maintainer's guide
[11:25] <shoumik> watever
[11:25] <unop> Jowi,  does irc.eu.gimp.org not do it for you?
[11:25] <eXistenZ> Ademan, Install the latest version of FontForge
[11:25] <Jowi> unop, it only tries the irc.se.gimp.org over and over again.
[11:25] <crazy_penguin> Good night!
[11:25] <Spee_Der> Good afternoon folks.
[11:26] <unop> ritchiee,  i'd run this -- sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow kdm
[11:26] <unop> Jowi,  ahh, guess you'll have to try again someother day then :(
[11:26] <Jowi> unop, all have different ip addresses but none is letting me in.
[11:26] <Ademan> eXistenZ: ah, well really you don't have to repackage it, but its kinda preffered, the packaging guide is System->Help->System Documentation, and you'll find packaging isn't exactly easy
[11:26] <Ademan> eXistenZ: the easy way out would really be checkinstall, which you might consider looking into
[11:27] <ritchiee> unop, ok hang on
[11:27] <evizaer> Hello everyone. I'm looking for help regarding a kinda complex dual (more like multi) boot situation with winXP pro, Vista, and Ubuntu.
[11:27] <unop> Jowi,  gimp.org probably had big dreams of having a worldwide IRC network -- the DNS infrastructure is in place .. the IRC one is probably taking  a few hitches :)
[11:28] <ritchiee> unop, ok it said reloaded config, shall i reboot and see if that fixed it?
[11:28] <FurryNemesis> anyone know how I remove packages installed that I had to compile myself? I want to re-install tremulous seeing as I mucked up the first time
[11:28] <Jowi> unop, got to start the world domination somewhere :P
[11:28] <jrib> FurryNemesis: what command did you use to install?
[11:28] <unop> ritchiee,  you can always do this -- telinit 1;   when at runlevel one,  telinit 2;  to come back :)
[11:28] <Jowi> unop, cheers
[11:28] <lupine_85> if you still have the source tree, maybe make uninstall
[11:28] <ritchiee> unop, cool :)
[11:28] <lupine_85> otherwise you've got no chance
[11:29] <FurryNemesis> jrib, no idea, it was ages ago and I wan't keeping a changelog then
[11:29] <ritchiee> unop, going to try a reboot though just for testing.
[11:29] <unop> ritchiee, the procedure is the same as rebooting :)
[11:29] <jrib> FurryNemesis: do you know of checkinstall?
[11:29] <jfanaian> I'm trying to get Beryl set up on a ATI Xpress 200 but after setting up my xgl.desktop and logging with the XGL session all I get is a white screen with the mouse cursor on it. If I do glxinfo it does show my direct rendering to yes so I'm assuming my video card is set up right... so why would it be loading just white?
[11:29] <Jowi> FurryNemesis, if you used "sudo checkinstall" instead of "sudo make install" it's a piece of cake
[11:29] <jfanaian> I followed the guide here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341149&highlight=XGL+Xpress+200
[11:29] <Jowi> !checkinstall | FurryNemesis
[11:29] <ubotu> FurryNemesis: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[11:29] <FurryNemesis> ah, now I know. Thanks
[11:29] <fips> jrib: it works! :)
[11:29] <fips> Thank you
[11:30] <FurryNemesis> thanks
[11:30] <jrib> fips: np
[11:30] <ritchiee> it worked!
[11:30] <ritchiee> :)
[11:30] <ritchiee> Why did that happen unop?
[11:30] <unop> ritchiee,  cheers indeed :)
[11:31] <unop> ritchiee,  the remnants of upgrade-residue :) god knows really
[11:31] <Aysha> will Ubuntu run of an old Pentium, or is that too old?

[11:31] <ritchiee> well thanks anyways

[11:33] <goban> when i use the paint bucket (its set on normal and 100 opacity) it paints a shade of the color im dumping, not the color, why would that be? its a GIF
 fill with foreground does same thing
[11:33] <goban> its just a background no layers
[11:33] <botezuma> hey. can anyone help? I'm trying to upgrade from Dapper to Edgy and I get a error
[11:33] <unop> goban, if the GIF only supports < 255 colors .. then that is expected -- try using a higher quality GIF format
[11:34] <goban> botezuma, if you are able just reinstalling almost always works
[11:34] <botezuma> gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[11:34] <botezuma> Err http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com dapper-backports/universe Packages

[11:34] <gravemind> yo, I'm trying to mount an iso but bchunk says there's a problem with my cue file
[11:34] <goban> unop, im trying to paste just white
[11:34] <gravemind> oops, I mean I'm trying to mount a cue bin
[11:34] <gravemind> or make an iso out of it or whatever bchunk does
[11:35] <unop> goban,  even white is susceptible to the problem .. its to do with how the colours are represented internally

[11:35] <Cantervilotis> necesito ayuda!!!!
[11:35] <ecelis> eso te iba a decir entra a#usbuntu-es
[11:35] <Aysha> I'm working on that one myself. I'm starting to think Windows sucks. And I really don't see the big hype with Vista. It just looks like it has eye candy and not much else
[11:35] <unop> Kajin,  you looking for a bounty reward or someink ? .. :) good work
[11:35] <Cantervilotis> ok gracias
[11:36] <gravemind> if anyone wants to help, here's the contents of my cue file http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4943/
[11:36] <shmulik> So I've got Edgy on this macBook Pro with an intel video card, and I install 915resolution but it's still 1024x768
[11:36] <goban> unop, thanks, i changed to RBG and works
[11:36] <unop> goban,  :)
[11:36] <bean-oh> gravemind, bchunk works great for bin/cue
[11:37] <Kajin> unop: Not really, I'm just happy to hear I'll be less bothered by people having problems with their spyware and viruses. ;)
[11:37] <DigitalNinja> is somehting going on with the repositories? I'm doing and update and it's taking a long time to finish
[11:37] <GeekChick|U> shmulik: i get the same issue on all 15.4 inch laptops.
[11:37] <shmulik> This isn't a 15.4" laptop
[11:37] <gravemind> bean-oh, what does bchunk actually do? I get an error complaining that Track has no space or something
[11:37] <hotti> how can i see what color depth my xorg is running?
[11:37] <shmulik> It's a widescreen one that's larger
[11:37] <shmulik> MacBook Pro
[11:37] <bean-oh> what kind of cd is it? music? or software?
[11:38] <unop> Kajin,  well, i dont hope to sound pessimistic -- but the days when linux starts seeing the effects of viruses and spyware havent come yet
[11:38] <gravemind> bean-oh - one data track and lots of audio tracks. it's for a videogame
[11:38] <DigitalNinja> shmulik: Do you have the MacBook Pro?
[11:38] <bean-oh> gravemind, there are different flags for bchunk for different types of cds
[11:38] <shmulik> Yes with an Intel 945GM
[11:38] <DigitalNinja> shmulik: Do you like it?
[11:38] <GeekChick|U> Hmm, where's the gpartd shortcut in ubuntu? Is it only inside the installer?
[11:38] <LycoLoco> hey GeekChick|U - what'd you find out?
[11:38] <mphill> i am trying to installed a bunch of deb's from another system.  I took the files from /var/cache/apt/archive and placed then on another system with now net connection.  I tried dpkg -i *.deb from the cdrom, that failed because it could not find the dependencies.  could someone help?
[11:39] <GeekChick|U> LycoLoco: that you left. :)
[11:39] <tuskernini> shmulik,  i was wondering  how ubuntu performed on the mac pro
[11:39] <bean-oh> gravemind, i'd start by looking at the bchunk man page
[11:39] <hobojoe> Hello all
[11:39] <gravemind> ok
[11:39] <shmulik> DigitalNinja: It's not mine.  I'm just the dude who takes people's laptops and installs GNU/Linux on them
[11:39] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|U:  haha, sorry - dealing with an ubuntu problem of my own and tried something :-)
[11:39] <gravemind> bean-oh, so did you look at the cue file and make sure it's ok?
[11:39] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|U: anyway, did it tell you anything useful?
[11:39] <shmulik> tuskernini: Most eveything works, just not out of the box
[11:39] <fatsheep> How can I upgrade to Edgy from Dapper?
[11:39] <unop> mphill,  thats one of the problems of manually installing files -- you need all the dependencies to be among *.deb too
[11:39] <GeekChick|U> LycoLoco: When i disabled the fancy GUI boot loader, it booted fine with zero issues. with the GUI loader, it froze on the loading bar for over 10 minutes before i rebooted it.
[11:39] <bean-oh> gravemind, it looks fine to me, you're probably just using the wrong flag in bchunk
[11:39] <tuskernini> shmulik, cam and wirelss also?
[11:39] <gravemind> ok
[11:39] <mphill> unop: I have then all in the same directory
[11:40] <DigitalNinja> shmulik: Cool! Do you like what you see?
[11:40] <GeekChick|U> LycoLoco: thanks
[11:40] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|U: weird, so without the UI, it worked just fine?
[11:40] <shmulik> tuskernini: Wireless, video, all the ports on the side (USB, firewire, etc.), keyboard backlight, FN keys, all work
[11:40] <GeekChick|U> LycoLoco: yes.
[11:40] <shmulik> The camera can be gottent ow ork
[11:40] <shmulik> I hear the camera works out of the box with Feisty
[11:40] <nnx> For the upgrade from 6.06.1 to 6.10, have the kinks been ironed out yet?  I'm a little afraid to try the upgrade because I keep on hearing horror stories.
[11:40] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|U: well, I'm glad it did, even if that's incredibly weird
[11:40] <unop> mphill, my question is -- do you also have the dependencies of all those *.debs in that directory?
[11:40] <tuskernini> shmulik, great... i am impressed... really i will think about this one
[11:40] <shmulik> Except I don't know why 915resolution package isn;t working for this one
[11:40] <tuskernini> shmulik, thank you
[11:40] <kurt_> hello
[11:40] <GeekChick|U> shmulik: its like i said. i get the same issue on all my laptops. ubuntu doesnt recognize it for me.
[11:40] <gravemind> bean-oh: is this relevant?  It is advisable to edit the .cue file to either MODE2/2352/2048  or MODE2/2352/2324  depending on whether an ISO filesystem or a VCD is desired, respectively.
[11:41] <bruenig> !hi | kurt_
[11:41] <ubotu> kurt_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:41] <nnx> Or would upgrade questions be better directed to another channel?
[11:41] <GeekChick|U> LycoLoco: thanks for the help. it did work without GUI boot
[11:41] <kurt_> i am running 704
[11:41] <mphill> unop: yes, it says it needs pacakge X verion 1.2.3 and it is in the same directory.
[11:41] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|U: any time, glad it worked!
[11:41] <Taco|king> ubuntu is for n00bs
[11:41] <hobojoe> I've just followed a few suggeste upgrades from synaptic, one was a kernel upgrade from 2.6.10 to 2.6.11-17. I'm using stock nvidia kernels from ubuntu. Anyway afterwards x wouldnt boot. I reinstalled nvidia-kernel-common and nvidia-glx and it still wouldn't load. I then did some diging and noticed that the generic restricted modules hadn't been installed with the update so I Installed them and did over nvidia again, but it still didn't fix
[11:41] <rfschmid> Any idea how I would go about troubleshooting my Ubuntu Edgy laptop sometimes not coming back from suspend (fans spin but screen doesn't come on, ctrl alt backspace does nothing, ctrl alt f1 does nothing)
[11:41] <bruenig> nnx, kinks been worked out? It is the same as if you upgraded at the beginning essentially
[11:42] <hobojoe> I'm getting the typical can't load nvidia modules problem...
[11:42] <hobojoe> any ideas?
[11:42] <nnx> bruenig: Well, in that case, is it as unstable/dangerous as I've heard?
[11:42] <GeekChick|U> Taco|king: way to be flame bait
[11:42] <unop> nnx, one of the problems with upgrading (anything for that matter) is that there is a possibility of small nagging problems cropping up -- its just a risk you take when upgrading .. its still better than reinstall afresh
[11:42] <unop> mphill,  try installing the dependencies first then
[11:42] <tripitaka> Hi, I'm having trouble watching mpegs from a samba share. I can browse to the files and right click.. open with vlc but it won't play. Same thing happens with *.avi - is there a proper way to open video files over samba?
[11:42] <bruenig> nnx, upgrading is always going to have a risk, to sit out because of that will leave you paralyzed
[11:43] <Taco|king> this chan has to many people on it, kick 1036 of em
[11:43] <nnliu> every time i restart ubuntu a bunch of random screens always pop up. sessions, exaile, sound preferences, but i don't have them in sessions as auto start programs, can any1 help?
[11:43] <mphill> unop: there are hundreds of packages, this is the problem....
[11:43] <LycoLoco> Taco|king: good job, considering there are only 1030 people
[11:43] <unop> tripitaka,  a better way would be to mount the samba share locally and then access the local directory to play the files in it
[11:43] <GeekChick|U> LycoLoco: 1029 :)
[11:43] <nnx> bruenig: True.  Nevertheless, I've been hearing about hosed boxes and such.  I've been wondering if I should wait until I have time to do a fresh install, but that'll take days for me to back up and reinstall everything.
[11:43] <mphill> I took the entire apt cache directory of debs from system 1 and now i want to install them on system 2.
[11:43] <LycoLoco> GeekChick|U:  :-) 1029 indeed
[11:43] <nnx> bruenig: As in, substantially more than usual.
[11:44] <tripitaka> unop: Rather than browse via smb://   ?
[11:44] <bean-oh> gravemind, to be honest, i couldn't tell you. i've had it work for me in the past.
[11:44] <gravemind> ok
[11:44] <Igor_V2> how i get plugins to the player totem-xine?  to .avi ......etc
[11:45] <fatsheep> Is there a guide on how to upgrade to Edgy Eft ?
[11:45] <fatsheep> (from Dapper)
[11:45] <agreif> hi @all
[11:45] <unop> mphill, well, either setup a local mirror using these deb files (requires a little work) or connect this machine upto a network -- what i'd do is setup the original machine where these .debs were downloaded as a deb repository using apt-proxy and use that
[11:45] <Slasherx2> !wifi
[11:45] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:45] <mphill> unop: i have to assume no network, this is the rub...
[11:46] <hobojoe> mmm none of the modules have been installed with the kernel update wtf??
[11:46] <DARKGuy> Good afternoon (or night, or day, wherever you live!). Anyways, I got a quick question: I've seen there has been some issue with a kernel upgrade recently. Using apt-get upgrade says that linux-image-generic is being retained, but apt-get dist-upgrade says I can upgrade linux-image-generic and linux-image-2.6.17-11-generic. Is that safe to do? I have Edgy.
[11:46] <unop> tripitaka,  yep, if you mount a samba share using a mount point such as /mnt/samba .. vlc will be able to play files such as /mnt/samba/my_movie.avi
[11:46] <hobojoe> is there a reason why synaptic wasn't updating my modules when installed the new kernel? isn't that common practice?
[11:46] <palypup> nnx : I had the same problem and fixed it.
[11:46] <tripitaka> well, ubuntu may be for noobs, but that does result in it having amazingly good documentation. on samba mounts for example.
[11:46] <tripitaka> unop: thanks
[11:47] <funkyHat> I'm trying to get my console resolution to 1280x800... anyone managed it?
[11:47] <gravemind> anyone: what does it mean when bchunk says "Reading the CUE file: ... ouch, no space after TRACK.
[11:48] <gravemind> "
[11:48] <unop> mphill,  well, you're stuck between a rock and a hardplace here -- its difficult .. what i'd try and do is install all the libraries there first as they tend to be the most depended upon -- sudo dpkg -i lib*deb
[11:48] <agreif> Does anybody know how can I add my own deb package to the official ubuntu repository? Is there a sort of request form?

[11:56] <kurt_> later ppl
[11:56] <unop> crusoe,  are you sure you added in the edgy repositories to your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[11:56] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: Try running update before upgrade.  It just fixed the retained packages for me.
[11:56] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: I did, but it keeps saying the same thing
[11:56] <crusoe> unop: I definitely did not.  I'm just following the Upgrade Notes
[11:56] <tripitaka> the full command is 'sudo mount -t smbfs //<ip>/<share> /mnt/smb -o username=<me>,password=<mypasswd>'
[11:57] <unop> ToHellWithGA,  have you shared that share yet?
[11:57] <BuckWild> alright umm
[11:57] <tripitaka> after a nice solid 'mkdir /mnt/smb'
[11:57] <unop> crusoe,  can you post the contents of that file?
[11:57] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: And when I say "just", I mean it worked as of less than a minute ago, but hadn't worked a while previous.
[11:57] <crusoe> unop: open it with nano?
[11:57] <ToHellWithGA> unop: it is shared on the windows folder
[11:57] <ToHellWithGA> tripitaka: i have a mount point ready for it
[11:57] <BuckWild> when I try to enable twinview, it doesn't work, only my main screen comes on, if I change the displaydevice to the FPD it shows up, but then only on the flat panel
[11:57] <unop> crusoe,  you can use gedit too -- and remember not to post in here -- use the !pastebin
[11:57] <BuckWild> anybody got a clue with this stuff?
[11:57] <TIRC_3617> hi
[11:57] <unop> ToHellWithGA,  and you want to access that share from this machine?
[11:58] <crusoe> unop: !pastebin?
[11:58] <unop> !pastebin
[11:58] <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)
[11:58] <ToHellWithGA> unop: that's the plan, stan.  i'd like to read and write to that share.  it doesn't require a password to access it from a windows machine
[11:58] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Well, I just did sudo apt-get update then upgrade, and the same thing happened
[11:58] <tripitaka> unop: Mystery is solved, I did not have smbfs package installed
[11:58] <DARKGuy> *shrugs* I guess I'll try it anyways o,o
[11:58] <francois> hi, does anyone know how to downgrade a package easily ?
[11:59] <w_> Anyone an admin for launchpad?
[11:59] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: All I know is that I had some new packages show up, and all of a sudden they weren't held back anymore.
[11:59] <TIRC_3617> pussy
[11:59] <ToHellWithGA> w_: if it's not an ubuntu support question, please head to #ubuntu-offtopic

[11:59] <ubotu> TIRC_3617: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:59] <unop> ToHellWithGA,  you should just be able to navigate to the location -- in nautilus -- type smb://KIM/Shared\ Documents
[11:59] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Oh well, thanks anyways ^^;
[12:00] <unop> ToHellWithGA,  the space might cause a problem -- try and share that share without spaces if you can
[12:00] <FunnyMan3595> DARKGuy: GL.
[12:00] <Madpilot> w_, try #launchpad to find LP admins
[12:00] <unop> tripitaka,   :)
[12:00] <w_> Thanks Madpilot

[12:00] <DARKGuy> FunnyMan3595: Ty ^^
[12:00] <Linkmasta23> lol
[12:00] <crusoe> unop: !pastebin doens't seem to be resolving?
[12:01] <FunnyMan3595> Linkmasta23: He won't send duplicate messages.
[12:01] <tuskernini> Question, is there a desktop capture program that captures a square around the mouse even if you move the mouse?
[12:01] <unop> crusoe,  use this site then -- http://pastebin.ca
